     This Pooling and Servicing Agreement is dated as of May 1, 2006 (the
"Agreement"), among MERRILL LYNCH MORTGAGE INVESTORS, INC., as depositor (the
"Depositor"), CREDIT-BASED ASSET SERVICING AND SECURITIZATION LLC, as seller
(the "Seller"), LITTON LOAN SERVICING LP, as servicer (the "Servicer") and U.S.
BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as trustee (the "Trustee").

                              PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

     The Depositor intends to sell pass-through certificates (collectively, the
"Certificates"), to be issued hereunder in multiple Classes, which in the
aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust
Fund created hereunder. The Certificates will consist of eighteen Classes of
Certificates, designated as (i) the Class AV-1, Class AV-2, Class AV-3 and Class
AV-4 Certificates, (ii) the Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class
M-5 and Class M-6 Certificates, (iii) the Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3 and
Class B-4 Certificates, (iv) the Class P Certificates, (v) the Class CE
Certificates, (vi) the Class R Certificates and the Class R-X Certificates.

     As provided herein, the Trustee shall elect that the Trust Fund (other than
amounts distributable to the Class P Certificates, the Swap Agreement and the
Supplemental Interest Trust) be treated for federal income tax purposes as nine
separate real estate mortgage investment conduits (each a "REMIC" or, in the
alternative, the "SWAP REMIC," "REMIC 1," "REMIC 2," "REMIC B-1," "REMIC B-2,"
"REMIC B-3," "REMIC B-4," "REMIC CE" and "REMIC IO" respectively). The REMIC IO
Regular Interests represent all of the "regular interests" in REMIC IO. The
REMIC CE Regular Interests represent all of the "regular interests" in REMIC CE.
The REMIC B-4 Regular Interests represent all of the "regular interests" in
REMIC B-4. The REMIC B-3 Regular Interests represent all of the "regular
interests" in REMIC B-3. The REMIC B-2 Regular Interests represent all of the
"regular interests" in REMIC B-2. The REMIC B-1 Regular Interests represent all
of the "regular interests" in REMIC B-1. The REMIC 2 Regular Interests represent
all of the "regular interests" in REMIC 2. The REMIC 1 Regular Interests
represent all of the "regular interests" in REMIC 1. The SWAP REMIC Regular
Interests represent all of the "regular interests" in the SWAP REMIC. Each Class
of Cap Carryover Certificates (other than the Class B Certificates) represents
beneficial ownership of the Corresponding REMIC 2 Regular Interest, the right to
receive payments in respect of Excess Interest and obligations with respect to
Class Payment Shortfalls. The Class B-1 Certificates represent beneficial
ownership of the REMIC B-1 Regular Interest, the right to receive payments in
respect of Excess Interest and obligations with respect to Class Payment
Shortfalls. The Class B-2 Certificates represent beneficial ownership of the
REMIC B-2 Regular Interest, the right to receive payments in respect of Excess
Interest and obligations with respect to Class Payment Shortfalls. The Class B-3
Certificates represent beneficial ownership of the REMIC B-3 Regular Interest
and the right to receive payments in respect of Excess Interest and obligations
with respect to Class Payment Shortfalls. The Class B-4 Certificates represent
beneficial ownership of the REMIC B-4 Regular Interest and the right to receive
payments in respect of Excess Interest and obligations with respect to Class
Payment Shortfalls.

     For federal income tax purposes, the Class CE Certificate shall represent
(i) the right to receive all distributions with respect to the REMIC Regular
Interests represented by the REMIC CE CE Interest and the REMIC IO IO Interest,
(ii) the obligation to pay amounts in respect of Excess Interest and the right
to receive amounts in respect of Class Payment Shortfalls as described in
Section 9.01(l) and (iii) ownership of the Swap Agreement and the Supplemental
Interest Trust. The Class P Certificates shall be entitled to the amounts
distributable in respect of prepayment penalties on the Mortgage Loans pursuant
to Section 4.01 hereof and shall not represent a REMIC regular interest. Each of
the Class R-SW, Class R-1 and Class R-2 Interests, represented collectively by
the Class R Certificates, represents the sole Class of "residual interest" in
the SWAP REMIC, REMIC 1 and REMIC 2, respectively, for purposes of the REMIC
Provisions. Each of the Class R-B-1, Class R-B-2, Class R-B-3, Class R-B-4,
Class R-CE and

<PAGE>

Class R-IO Interests, represented collectively by the Class R-X Certificates,
represent the sole Class of "residual interest" in REMIC B-1, REMIC B-2, REMIC
B-3, REMIC B-4, REMIC CE and REMIC IO, respectively, for purposes of the REMIC
provisions.

     The assets of the Trust Fund (other than the Supplemental Interest Trust,
the Swap Agreement and the rights to payments distributable to the Class P
Certificates) will be held as assets of the SWAP REMIC. The SWAP REMIC Regular
Interests will be held as assets of REMIC 1. The REMIC 1 Regular Interests will
be held as assets of REMIC 2. The REMIC 2 B-1 Interest will be held as the sole
asset of REMIC B-1. The REMIC 2 B-2 Interest will be held as the sole asset of
REMIC B-2. The REMIC 2 B-3 Interest will be held as the sole asset of REMIC B-3.
The REMIC 2 B-4 Interest will be held as the sole asset of REMIC B-4. The REMIC
2 CE Interest will be held as the sole asset of REMIC CE. The REMIC 2 IO
Interest will be held as the sole asset of REMIC IO. The "latest possible
maturity date" for federal income tax purposes of all interests created hereby
will be the Distribution Date in May 2047.

----------
(1)  For any Distribution Date, the interest rate for these interests shall be a
     per annum rate (but not less than zero) equal to the product of (i) the
     weighted average of the interest rates on the SWAP REMIC Regular Interests
     for such Distribution Date and (ii) a fraction the numerator of which is 30
     and the denominator of which is the actual number of days in the Interest
     Accrual Period for the Class AV-1 Certificates, provided however, that for
     any Distribution Date on which the Class LT1-IO Interest is entitled to a
     portion of interest accruals on a SWAP REMIC Regular Interest ending with a
     designation "A" as described in footnote 5 below, such weighted average
     shall be computed by first subjecting the rate on such SWAP REMIC Regular
     Interest to a cap equal to Swap LIBOR for such Distribution Date.

(2)  The Class R-1 Interest shall represent the sole class of residual interest
     in REMIC 1. The Class R-1 Interest will not have a principal amount or an
     interest rate. The Class R-1 Interest shall be represented by the Class R
     Certificate.

(3)  The initial principal amount of these interests shall be an amount equal to
     50% of the initial principal amount of the related certificates.

(4)  The initial principal amount of this interest shall be an amount equal to
     the excess of (i) the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the
     Mortgage Loans over (ii) the aggregate initial principal amount of the
     Marker Interests.

(5)  The Class LT1-IO Interest is an interest-only class that does not have a
     principal balance. For only those Distribution Dates listed in the first
     column of the table below, the Class LT1-IO Interest shall be entitled to
     interest accrued on the SWAP REMIC Regular Interest listed in the second
     column below at a per annum rate equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the
     interest rate for such SWAP REMIC Regular Interest for such Distribution
     Date over (ii) Swap LIBOR for such Distribution Date.

power of attorney, as the case may be, certified to be a true and complete copy

<PAGE>

               (iii) an original Assignment of Mortgage, in form and substance

execute and deliver) to the Depositor on or prior to the Closing Date an

noted), substantially in the form attached as Exhibit F-3 hereto.

     If any of the documents referred to in Section 2.01(ii), (iii) or (iv)
above has as of the Closing Date been submitted for recording but either (x) has
not been returned from the applicable public recording office or (y) has been
lost or such public recording office has retained the original of such document,
the obligations of the Seller to deliver such documents shall be deemed to be
satisfied upon (1) delivery to the Trustee or the Custodian no later than the

in blank to be completed and shall cause all Assignments referred to in Section
2.01(iii) hereof and, to the extent necessary, in Section 2.01(iv) hereof to be
recorded at the Servicer's expense and of no cost to the Trust Fund; provided,
however, the Servicer need not cause to be recorded any Assignment which relates
to a Mortgage Loan in any jurisdiction under the laws of which, as evidenced by
an Opinion of Counsel delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee and the Rating
Agencies, the recordation of such assignment is not necessary to protect the
Trustee's interest, on behalf of the Trust, in the related Mortgage Loan. The
Servicer shall be required to deliver such assignments for recording within 30
days of the Closing Date. The Servicer shall furnish the Trustee, or its
designated agent, with a copy of each assignment of Mortgage submitted for
recording. In the event that any such Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded
because of a defect therein, the Servicer shall promptly have a substitute
Assignment prepared or have such defect cured, as the case may be, and
thereafter cause each such Assignment to be duly recorded. In

                                       54

<PAGE>

the event that any Mortgage Note is endorsed in blank as of the Closing Date,
promptly following the Closing Date the Servicer shall cause to be completed
such endorsements "Pay to the order of U.S. Bank National Association, as
Trustee for the C-BASS Mortgage Loan Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006-CB4,
without recourse."

     In the event that any Assignments of Mortgage is not recorded or is
improperly recorded (as a result of actions taken or not taken by a person other
than the Servicer), neither the Servicer nor the Trustee shall have any
liability for its failure to receive notices related to such Assignment of
Mortgage.

     The Depositor herewith delivers to the Trustee executed copies of the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

     The Custodian shall review each Mortgage File within 60 days after the

within 60 days of receipt and with respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage,
within 60 days after the assignment thereof) and the Custodian shall certify in
substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-1 that, as to each Mortgage
Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in

annexed thereto as not being covered by such certification), (i) all documents
required to be delivered to it pursuant to Section 2.01 of this Agreement are in
its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it and have not been
mutilated, damaged or torn and relate to such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on

Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to items (1), (2), (3), (5), (13) and
(26) (in the case of (26), only as to whether there is a prepayment penalty) of

     Prior to the first anniversary date of this Agreement the Custodian shall
deliver to the Depositor and the Servicer a final certification in the form
annexed hereto as Exhibit F-2 evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files,

or defective in any material respect, at the conclusion of its review the
Custodian shall so notify the Seller, the Depositor and the Servicer. In

Servicer (or upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification of such breach)

which materially adversely affects

Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written
notice to the other parties.

Documents, conveying good title thereto free and clear of any liens and
encumbrances, from the Depositor to the Trustee and that such property not be
part of the Depositor's estate or property of the Depositor in the event of any
insolvency by the Depositor. In the event that such conveyance is deemed to be,
or to be made as security for, a loan, the parties intend that the Depositor
shall be deemed to have granted and does hereby grant to the Trustee, on behalf
of the Trust, a first priority perfected security interest in all of the
Depositor's right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and the
Related Documents, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement
under applicable law.

Class A and Class M Certificates. The Seller, the Servicer, the Depositor and
the Holders of the Class A and Class M Certificates by acceptance of their

perform its obligations under the Swap Agreement and shall do so solely in its
capacity as Trustee of the Supplemental Interest Trust and not in its individual
capacity.

Supplemental Interest Trust to the Swap Counterparty under the Swap Agreement

          1.1441-4(a)(3)(ii) of United States Treasury Regulations (the
          "Regulations")) for United States federal income tax purposes, or

          section 1.1441-4(a)(3)(ii) of the Regulations for United States

          federal income tax purposes.

Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or in Section 2.04 in respect of any Mortgage
Loan which materially adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the
interest therein of the Certificateholders, the Trustee (or the Custodian, as
applicable) shall promptly notify the Seller, the Servicer and the Trustee of
such defect, missing document or breach and request that the Seller deliver such
missing document or cure such defect or breach within 120 days or 150 days
following the Closing Date, in the case of missing Mortgages or Assignments from
the date the Seller was notified of such missing document, defect or breach, and
if the Seller does not deliver such missing document or cure such defect or
breach in all material respects during such period, and such missing document,
defect or breach will have a material and adverse effect on the
Certificateholders, the Trustee shall enforce the Seller's obligation under the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and inform the Seller of its obligation to
repurchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price on or
prior to the Determination Date following the expiration of such 120 day period
(subject to Section 2.03(e)); provided that, in connection with any such breach
that is susceptible to cure but that could not reasonably

                                       56

<PAGE>

have been cured within such 120 day or 150 day period, if the Seller shall have
commenced to cure such breach within such 120 day or 150 day period, the Seller
shall be permitted to proceed thereafter diligently and expeditiously to cure
the same within 120 days. The Purchase Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan
shall be deposited in the Collection Account, and the Trustee, upon receipt of
written certification from the Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the
Seller the related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such instruments
of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, representation or
warranty, as the Seller shall furnish to it and as shall be necessary to vest in
the Seller any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and the Trustee shall have
no further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File. In lieu of
repurchasing any such Mortgage Loan as provided above, the Seller may cause such
Mortgage Loan to be removed from the Trust Fund (in which case it shall become a
Defective Mortgage Loan) and substitute one or more Eligible Substitute Mortgage
Loans in the manner and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d).
In addition to the foregoing, in the case of a breach of the Seller's
representation set forth in Section 3.01(f) of the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement, the Seller shall reimburse the Trust for all costs or damages
incurred by the Trust as a result of the violation of such law (such amount, the
"Reimbursement Amount"). The Reimbursement Amount shall be delivered to the
Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account within 10 days from the date
the Seller was notified by the Trustee of the amount of such costs and damages.
It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller to pay the
Reimbursement Amount and to either cure or repurchase (or substitute for) any
Mortgage Loan as to which a document is missing, a material defect in a
constituent document exists or as to which such a breach has occurred and is
continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against the Seller respecting such
omission, defect or breach available to the Trustee and the Trustee on behalf of
the Certificateholders.

          (b) [Reserved].

          (c) Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Servicer or
receipt of notice by the Servicer of the breach of any representation, warranty
or covenant of the Servicer set forth in Section 2.05 which materially and
adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan,
the Servicer shall cure such breach in all material respects.

          (d) Any substitution of Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans for
Defective Mortgage Loans made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) must be effected prior
to the last Business Day that is within two years after the Closing Date. As to
any Defective Mortgage Loan for which the Seller substitutes an Eligible
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be effected by the
Seller delivering to the Trustee for such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or
Loans, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment to the Trustee, and such
other documents and agreements, with all necessary endorsements thereon, as are
required by Section 2.01, together with an Officer's Certificate providing that
each such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies the definition thereof and
specifying the Substitution Adjustment Amount (as described below), if any, in
connection with such substitution. The Trustee shall acknowledge receipt for
such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and, within ten Business Days
thereafter, shall review (or cause the Custodian to review) such documents as
specified in Section 2.02 and deliver (or cause the Custodian to deliver) to the
Servicer, with respect to such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, a
certification substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-1, with any
applicable exceptions noted thereon. Within one year of the date of
substitution, the Trustee shall deliver (or cause the Custodian to deliver) to
the Servicer a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 hereto
with respect to such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, with any
applicable exceptions noted thereon. Monthly Payments due with respect to
Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution are not part of
the Trust Fund and will be retained by the Seller. For the month of
substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will reflect the collections
and recoveries in respect of such Defective Mortgage Loan in the Collection
Period preceding the month of substitution and the Depositor or the Seller, as
the case may be, shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently

                                       57

<PAGE>

received in respect of such Defective Mortgage Loan. The Seller shall give or
cause to be given written notice to the Certificateholders that such
substitution has taken place, shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect
the removal of such Defective Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement and
the substitution of the Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and shall
deliver a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee. Upon such
substitution, such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall constitute
part of the Mortgage Pool and shall be subject in all respects to the terms of
this Agreement and, in the case of a substitution effected by the Seller, the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including, in the case of a substitution
effected by the Seller all applicable representations and warranties thereof
included in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and all applicable
representations and warranties thereof set forth in Section 2.04, in each case
as of the date of substitution.

     For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Eligible
Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Defective Mortgage Loans, the Servicer
will determine the amount (the "Substitution Adjustment Amount"), if any, by
which the aggregate Purchase Price of all such Defective Mortgage Loans exceeds
the aggregate, as to each such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan, of the
principal balance thereof as of the date of substitution, together with one
month's interest on such principal balance at the applicable Net Mortgage
Interest Rate. On the date of such substitution, the Seller will deliver or
cause to be delivered to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account an
amount equal to the Substitution Adjustment Amount, if any, and the Trustee,
upon receipt by it or the Custodian of the related Eligible Substitute Mortgage
Loan or Loans and certification by the Servicer of such deposit, shall release
to the Seller the related Mortgage File or Files and shall execute and deliver
such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse,
representation or warranty, as the Seller shall deliver to it and as shall be
necessary to vest therein any Defective Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.

     In addition, the Seller shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution will not
cause (a) any federal tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund, including without
limitation, any federal tax imposed on "prohibited transactions" under Section
860F(a)(l) of the Code or on "contributions after the startup date" under
Section 860G(d)(l) of the Code, or (b) any REMIC formed under this Agreement to
fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding. If
such Opinion of Counsel cannot be delivered, then such substitution may only be
effected at such time as the required Opinion of Counsel can be given.

          (e) Upon discovery by the Seller, the Servicer or the Trustee that any
Mortgage Loan does not constitute a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact shall within two
Business Days give written notice thereof to the other parties. In connection
therewith, the Seller shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations set forth
in Section 2.03(d), substitute one or more Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans
for the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of the earlier of discovery or
receipt of such notice with respect to such affected Mortgage Loan. In addition,
upon discovery that a Mortgage Loan is defective in a manner that would cause it
to be a "defective obligation" within the meaning of Treasury regulations
relating to REMICs, the Seller shall cure the defect or make the required
purchase or substitution no later than 90 days after the discovery of the
defect. Any such repurchase or substitution shall be made in the same manner as
set forth in Section 2.03(a), if made by the Seller. The Trustee shall reconvey
to the Seller the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant hereto in the same
manner, and on the same terms and conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan
repurchased for breach of a representation or warranty.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties
hereto acknowledge that the functions of the Trustee with respect to the
custody, acceptance, inspection and release of the Mortgage Files pursuant to
Sections 2.01, 2.02 and 2.03 and preparation and delivery of the certifications
in the form of Exhibit F-1 and Exhibit F-2 shall be performed by the Custodian
pursuant to the terms and

                                       58

<PAGE>

conditions of the Custodial Agreement. The fees and expenses of the Custodian
shall be paid by the Servicer.

     Section 2.04 Representations and Warranties of the Seller with Respect to
the Mortgage Loans.

     The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee for the benefit of
the Certificateholders that as of the Closing Date or as of such other date
specifically provided herein:

          (a) The representations and warranties made by the Seller pursuant to
Section 3.01 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement are hereby being made to
the Trustee and are true and correct as of the Closing Date.

          (b) Any written agreement between the Mortgagor in respect of a
Mortgage Loan and the Servicer modifying such Mortgagor's obligation to make
payments under the Mortgage Loan (such modified Mortgage Loan, a "Modified
Mortgage Loan") involved some assessment of the Mortgagor's ability to repay the
Modified Mortgage Loan.

     With respect to the representations and warranties set forth in this
Section 2.04 that are made to the best of the Seller's knowledge or as to which
the Seller has no knowledge, if it is discovered by the Depositor, the Seller,
the Servicer or the Trustee that the substance of such representation and
warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy materially and adversely affects the
value of the related Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the
Certificateholders then, notwithstanding the Seller's lack of knowledge with
respect to the substance of such representation and warranty being inaccurate at
the time the representation or warranty was made, such inaccuracy shall be
deemed a breach of the applicable representation or warranty.

     Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer or the Trustee of
a breach of any of the representations and warranties contained in this Section
that materially and adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan or the
interest therein of the Certificateholders, the party discovering the breach
shall give prompt written notice to the others and in no event later than two
Business Days from the date of such discovery. Within ninety days of its
discovery or its receipt of notice of any such missing or materially defective
documentation or any such breach of a representation or warranty, the Seller
shall promptly deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach in
all material respects, or in the event such defect or breach cannot be cured,
the Seller shall repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or cause the removal of
such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund and substitute for it one or more
Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans, in either case, in accordance with Section
2.03.

     It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set
forth in this Section 2.04 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to the
Trustee and shall inure to the benefit of the Certificateholders notwithstanding
any restrictive or qualified endorsement or assignment. It is understood and
agreed that the obligations of the Seller set forth in Section 2.03(a) and (c)
to cure, substitute for or repurchase a Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Mortgage
Loan Purchase Agreement and to reimburse the Trust the Reimbursement Amount,
constitute the sole remedies available to the Certificateholders or to the
Trustee on their behalf respecting a breach of the representations and
warranties contained in this Section 2.04.

     Section 2.05 Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Servicer.

     The Servicer hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Trustee, for
the benefit of each of the Trustee and the Certificateholders and to the
Depositor that as of the Closing Date or as of such date specifically provided
herein:

               (i) The Servicer is duly organized, validly existing, and in good
standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation and has all
licenses necessary to carry on its business as now being conducted, except for
such licenses, certificates and permits the absence of which, individually or in
the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on the ability of the
Servicer to conduct its business as it is presently conducted, and is licensed,
qualified and in good standing in the states where the Mortgaged Property is
located if the laws of such state require licensing or qualification in order to
conduct business of the type conducted by the Servicer or to ensure the
enforceability or validity of each Mortgage Loan; the Servicer has the power and
authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform in accordance
herewith; the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement (including
all instruments of transfer to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement) by the
Servicer and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been
duly and validly authorized; this Agreement evidences the valid, binding and
enforceable obligation of the Servicer, subject to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors' rights generally; and all requisite corporate action
has been taken by the Servicer to make this Agreement valid and binding upon the
Servicer in accordance with its terms;

               (ii) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement are in the ordinary course of business of the Servicer and will not
result in the breach of any term or provision of the certificate of formation or
the partnership agreement of the Servicer or result in the breach of any term or
provision of, or conflict with or constitute a default under or result in the
acceleration of any obligation under, any agreement, indenture or loan or credit
agreement or other instrument to which the Servicer or its property is subject,
or result in the violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or
decree to which the Servicer or its property is subject;

               (iii) The Servicer is an approved servicer of conventional
mortgage loans for Fannie Mae and has the facilities, procedures and experienced
personnel necessary for the sound servicing of mortgage loans of the same type
as the Mortgage Loans. The Servicer is, and shall remain for as long as it is
servicing the Mortgage Loans hereunder, in good standing to service mortgage
loans for HUD, Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, and no event has occurred, including
but not limited to a change in insurance coverage, which would make the Servicer
unable to comply with HUD, Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac eligibility requirements or
which would require notification to any of HUD, Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac;

               (iv) This Agreement, and all documents and instruments
contemplated hereby which are executed and delivered by the Servicer, constitute
and will constitute valid, legal and binding obligations of the Servicer,
enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as the enforcement
thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy laws and general principles of
equity;

               (v) The Servicer does not believe, nor does it have any reason or
cause to believe, that it cannot perform each and every covenant contained in
this Agreement;

               (vi) There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation
pending or, to its knowledge, threatened against the Servicer that, either
individually or in the aggregate, may result in any material adverse change in
the business, operations, financial condition, properties or assets of the
Servicer, or in any material impairment of the right or ability of the Servicer
to carry on its business

                                       60

<PAGE>

substantially as now conducted, or in any material liability on the part of the
Servicer, or that would draw into question the validity or enforceability of
this Agreement or of any action taken or to be taken in connection with the
obligations of the Servicer contemplated herein, or that would be likely to
impair materially the ability of the Servicer to perform under the terms of this
Agreement;

               (vii) No consent, approval or order of any court or governmental
agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the
Servicer of or compliance by the Servicer with this Agreement or the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for such
consents, approvals, authorizations and orders, if any, that have been obtained;

               (viii) Neither this Agreement nor any information, certificate of
an officer, statement furnished in writing or report delivered to the Trustee by
the Servicer in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby contains or
will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omits or will omit to
state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading; and

               (ix) The Servicer has fully furnished, and shall continue to
fully furnish for so long as it is servicing the Mortgage Loans hereunder, in
accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implementing regulations,
accurate and complete information on the Mortgagor credit files to Equifax,
Experian and Trans Union Credit Information Company on a monthly basis.

     It is understood and agreed that the representations, warranties and
covenants set forth in this Section 2.05 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage
Files to the Trustee and shall inure to the benefit of the Trustee, the
Depositor and the Certificateholders. Upon discovery by any of the Depositor,
the Servicer, the Seller or the Trustee of a breach of any of the foregoing
representations, warranties and covenants which materially and adversely affects
the value of any Mortgage Loan or the interests therein of the
Certificateholders, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written
notice (but in no event later than two Business Days following such discovery)
to the other parties hereto.

     Section 2.06 Representations and Warranties of the Depositor.

     The Depositor represents and warrants to the Trust and the Trustee on
behalf of the Certificateholders as follows:

               (i) This agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Depositor, enforceable against the Depositor in accordance
with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or
hereafter in effect affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights in general
and except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity
(whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity);

               (ii) Immediately prior to the sale and assignment by the
Depositor to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust of each Mortgage Loan, the
Depositor had good and marketable title to each Mortgage Loan (insofar as such
title was conveyed to it by the Seller) subject to no prior lien, claim,
participation interest, mortgage, security interest, pledge, charge or other
encumbrance or other interest of any nature;

               (iii) As of the Closing Date, the Depositor has transferred all
right, title interest in the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee on behalf of the
Trust;

                                       61

<PAGE>

               (iv) The Depositor has not transferred the Mortgage Loans to the
Trustee on behalf of the Trust with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any
of its creditors;

               (v) The Depositor has been duly incorporated and is validly
existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of
Delaware, with full corporate power and authority to own its assets and conduct
its business as presently being conducted;

               (vi) The Depositor is not in violation of its certificate of
incorporation or by-laws or in default in the performance or observance of any
material obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any contract,
indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other instrument to which
the Depositor is a party or by which it or its properties may be bound, which
default might result in any material adverse changes in the financial condition,
earnings, affairs or business of the Depositor or which might materially and
adversely affect the properties or assets, taken as a whole, of the Depositor;

               (vii) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
by the Depositor, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby,
do not and will not result in a material breach or violation of any of the terms
or provisions of, or, to the knowledge of the Depositor, constitute a default
under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement
or instrument to which the Depositor is a party or by which the Depositor is
bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Depositor is subject, nor
will such actions result in any violation of the provisions of the certificate
of incorporation or by-laws of the Depositor or, to the best of the Depositor's
knowledge without independent investigation, any statute or any order, rule or
regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over
the Depositor or any of its properties or assets (except for such conflicts,
breaches, violations and defaults as would not have a material adverse effect on
the ability of the Depositor to perform its obligations under this Agreement);

               (viii) To the best of the Depositor's knowledge without any
independent investigation, no consent, approval, authorization, order,
registration or qualification of or with any court or governmental agency or
body of the United States or any other jurisdiction is required for the issuance
of the Certificates, or the consummation by the Depositor of the other
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except such consents, approvals,
authorizations, registrations or qualifications as (a) may be required under
State securities or Blue Sky laws, (b) have been previously obtained or (c) the
failure of which to obtain would not have a material adverse effect on the
performance by the Depositor of its obligations under, or the validity or
enforceability of, this Agreement; and

               (ix) There are no actions, proceedings or investigations pending
before or, to the Depositor's knowledge, threatened by any court, administrative
agency or other tribunal to which the Depositor is a party or of which any of
its properties is the subject: (a) which if determined adversely to the
Depositor would have a material adverse effect on the business, results of
operations or financial condition of the Depositor; (b) asserting the invalidity
of this Agreement or the Certificates; (c) seeking to prevent the issuance of
the Certificates or the consummation by the Depositor of any of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, as the case may be; (d) which might materially
and adversely affect the performance by the Depositor of its obligations under,
or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement.

     The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Trust and the Trustee on
behalf of the Certificateholders that as of the Closing Date or as of such date
specifically provided herein:

               (i) The Seller is duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of Delaware
and has the power and authority to own its assets and to transact the business
in which it is currently engaged. The Seller is duly qualified to do business
and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the character of the
business transacted by it or properties owned or leased by it requires such
qualification and in which the failure to so qualify would have a material
adverse effect on (a) its business, properties, assets or condition (financial
or other), (b) the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, (c) the
value or marketability of the Mortgage Loans, or (d) its ability to foreclose on
the related Mortgaged Properties.

               (ii) The Seller has the power and authority to make, execute,
deliver and perform this Agreement and to consummate all of the transactions
contemplated hereunder and has taken all necessary action to authorize the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement. When executed and
delivered, this Agreement will constitute the Seller's legal, valid and binding
obligations enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement of
such terms may be limited by (1) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
receivership, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors'
rights generally and by the availability of equitable remedies, (2) general
equity principles (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a
proceeding in equity or at law) or (3) public policy considerations underlying
the securities laws, to the extent that such policy considerations limit the
enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement which purport to provide
indemnification from securities laws liabilities.

               (iii) The Seller holds all necessary licenses, certificates and
permits from all governmental authorities necessary for conducting its business
as it is presently conducted, except for such licenses, certificates and permits
the absence of which, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a
material adverse effect on the ability of the Seller to conduct its business as
it is presently conducted. It is not required to obtain the consent of any other
party or any consent, license, approval or authorization from, or registration
or declaration with, any governmental authority, bureau or agency in connection
with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this
Agreement, except

                                       63

<PAGE>

for such consents, licenses, approvals or authorizations, or registrations or
declarations as shall have been obtained or filed, as the case may be, prior to
the Closing Date.

               (iv) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by
the Seller will not conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a
default under, any provision of any existing law or regulation or any order or
decree of any court applicable to the Seller or any of its properties or any
provision of its Limited Liability Company Agreement, or constitute a material
breach of, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or
encumbrance upon any of its properties pursuant to any mortgage, indenture,
contract or other agreement to which it is a party or by which it may be bound.

               (v) No certificate of an officer, written statement or report
delivered pursuant to the terms hereof by the Seller contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to
make the certificate, statement or report not misleading.

               (vi) The transactions contemplated by this Agreement are in the
ordinary course of the Seller's business.

               (vii) The Seller is not insolvent, nor will the Seller be made
insolvent by the transfer of the Mortgage Loans to the Depositor, nor is the
Seller aware of any pending insolvency.

               (viii) The Seller is not in violation of, and the execution and
delivery of this Agreement by it and its performance and compliance with the
terms of this Agreement will not constitute a violation with respect to any
order or decree of any court, or any order or regulation of any federal, state,
municipal or governmental agency having jurisdiction, which violation would
materially and adversely affect the Seller's condition (financial or otherwise)
or operations or any of the Seller's properties, or materially and adversely
affect the performance of any of its duties hereunder.

               (ix) There are no actions or proceedings against, or
investigations of, the Seller pending or, to its knowledge, threatened, before
any court, administrative agency or other tribunal (i) that, if determined
adversely, would prohibit the Seller from entering into this Agreement, (ii)
seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement or (iii) that, if determined adversely, would prohibit or
materially and adversely affect the Seller's performance of any of its
respective obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this
Agreement.

               (x) The Seller did not transfer the Mortgage Loans to the
Depositor with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its creditors.

               (xi) The Seller acquired title to the Mortgage Loans in good
faith, without notice of any adverse claims.

               (xii) The transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Mortgage
Notes and the Mortgages by the Seller to the Depositor are not subject to the
bulk transfer laws or any similar statutory provisions in effect in any
applicable jurisdiction.

     Section 2.09 Covenants of the Seller.

          (a) The Seller hereby covenants that except for the transfer
hereunder, the Seller will not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other
Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any lien on any
Mortgage Loan, or any interest therein; the Seller will notify the Trustee, as
assignee of the Depositor, of the existence of any lien on any Mortgage Loan
immediately upon discovery thereof, and the Seller will defend the right, title
and interest of the Trust, as assignee of the Depositor, in, to and under

                                       64

<PAGE>

the Mortgage Loans, against all claims of third parties claiming through or
under the Seller; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 2.09 shall
prevent or be deemed to prohibit the Seller from suffering to exist upon any of
the Mortgage Loans any liens for municipal or other local taxes and other
governmental charges if such taxes or governmental charges shall not at the time
be due and payable or if the Seller shall currently be contesting the validity
thereof in good faith by appropriate proceedings and shall have set aside on its
books adequate reserves with respect thereto.

          (b) The Seller hereby covenants that neither it nor any Affiliate of
the Seller will directly solicit any Mortgagor hereunder to refinance the
related Mortgage Loan. For the purposes of the foregoing, neither the Seller nor
any Affiliate of the Seller shall be deemed to directly solicit any Mortgagor if
the Seller received a request for verification of mortgage, a request for demand
for payoff, a mortgagor initiated written or verbal communication indicating a
desire to prepay or refinance the related Mortgage Loan or the Mortgagor
initiates a title search, or if the Seller responds to a request from a
Mortgagor regarding a refinancing or if the Mortgagor receives marketing
materials which are generally disseminated.

                          ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
                                OF THE TRUST FUND

     Section 3.01 Servicer to Act as Servicer.

     The Servicer, as independent contract servicer, shall service and
administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and the normal
and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage servicers, and shall have
full power and authority, acting alone, to do or cause to be done any and all
things in connection with such servicing and administration which the Servicer
may deem necessary or desirable and consistent with the terms of this Agreement
and consistent with the standard of care which the Servicer uses and/or would
use in servicing mortgage loans for its own account (the "Servicing Standards").

     Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer may waive, modify
or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of strict
compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor
if in the Servicer's reasonable and prudent determination such waiver,
modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the
Certificateholders; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not make future
advances and (unless the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Mortgage
Loan or such default is, in the judgment of the Servicer, reasonably
foreseeable) the Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any
Mortgage Loan that would (i) change the Mortgage Interest Rate, defer or forgive
the payment thereof of any principal or interest payments, reduce the
outstanding principal amount (except for actual payments of principal) or extend
the final maturity date with respect to such Mortgage Loan, (ii) affect
adversely the status of any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund as a REMIC
or (iii) cause any REMIC to be subject to a tax on "prohibited transactions" or
"contributions" pursuant to the REMIC Provisions. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan
that would both (x) effect an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under
Section 1.860G-2(b) of the Treasury Regulations and (y) cause any REMIC
constituting part of the Trust Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code
or the imposition of any tax on "prohibited transactions" or "contributions"
after the Startup Day under the REMIC Provisions. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall continue, and is hereby
authorized and empowered to execute and deliver on behalf of itself, and the
Trustee, all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full
release, discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the
Mortgage Loans and with respect to the

                                       65

<PAGE>

Mortgaged Property. The Servicer shall make all required Servicing Advances and
shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with Applicable
Regulations, and shall provide to the Mortgagors any reports required to be
provided to them thereby. If reasonably required by the Servicer, the Trustee
shall furnish the Servicer a power of attorney (substantially in the form
annexed hereto as Exhibit O) and other documents necessary or appropriate to
enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under
this Agreement.

     In servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall
employ procedures including collection procedures and exercise the same care
that it customarily employs and exercises in servicing and administering
mortgage loans for its own account giving due consideration to accepted mortgage
servicing practices of prudent lending institutions and the Certificateholders'
reliance on the Servicer.

     The Servicer shall give prompt notice to the Trustee of any action, of
which the Servicer has actual knowledge, which action purports to (i) assert a
claim against the Trust Fund or (ii) assert jurisdiction over the Trust Fund.

     Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of
a Principal Prepayment in full, the Servicer may not waive any prepayment
penalty or portion thereof required by the terms of the related Mortgage Note
unless (i) the related Mortgage Loan is in default or foreseeable default and
such waiver (a) is standard and customary in servicing mortgage loans similar to
the Mortgage Loans and (b) would, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer,
maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such
prepayment penalty and the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) (A) the enforceability
thereof is limited (1) by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership, or
other similar law relating to creditors' rights generally or (2) due to
acceleration in connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment, or
(B) the enforceability is otherwise limited or prohibited by applicable law or
(iii) if the Servicer has not been provided with information sufficient to
enable it to collect the prepayment penalty. In the event of a Principal
Prepayment in full with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall deliver
to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate, substantially in the form of Exhibit Q,
no later than the third Business Day following the immediately succeeding
Determination Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Servicer may waive a
prepayment penalty in connection with a short sale or short payoff on a
defaulted Mortgage Loan. If the Servicer has waived all or a portion of a
prepayment penalty relating to a Principal Prepayment, other than as provided
above, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee as soon as possible after the
date of payoff, but in no event later than five business days from such date,
for deposit into the Distribution Account the amount of such prepayment penalty
(or such portion thereof as had been waived) for distribution in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement.

     Based solely on information provided to it by the Servicer, the Trustee
shall prepare and deliver to the Depositor and the owners of the Class P
Certificates, on a monthly basis, a statement setting forth the amounts received
with respect to prepayment penalties.

     During the period when reports are required to be filed for the Trust under
the Exchange Act, the Servicer shall not permit a Subservicer to perform any
servicing responsibilities hereunder with respect to the Mortgage Loans unless
that Subservicer first agrees in writing with the Servicer to deliver an
Assessment of Compliance and an Accountant's Attestation in such manner and at
such times that permits the Servicer to comply with Section 3.20 of this
Agreement.

     Section 3.02 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments.

     Continuously from the date hereof until the principal and interest on all
Mortgage Loans are paid in full, the Servicer will diligently collect all
payments due under each Mortgage Loan when the same

                                       66

<PAGE>

shall become due and payable and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be
consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any related
Primary Insurance Policy and Applicable Regulations, follow such collection
procedures as it follows with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the
Mortgage Loans and held for its own account. Further, the Servicer will take
special care in ascertaining and estimating annual ground rents, taxes,
assessments, water rates, fire and hazard insurance premiums, mortgage insurance
premiums, and all other charges that, as provided in the Mortgage, will become
due and payable to that end that the installments payable by the Mortgagors will
be sufficient to pay such charges as and when they become due and payable.

     Section 3.03 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.

     In the event that any payment due under any Mortgage Loan is not paid when
the same becomes due and payable, or in the event the Mortgagor fails to perform
any other covenant or obligation under the Mortgage Loan and such failure
continues beyond any applicable grace period, the Servicer shall take such
action as it shall deem to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders.
With respect to any defaulted Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall have the right
to review the status of the related forbearance plan and, subject to the second
paragraph of Section 3.01, may modify such forbearance plan; including,
extending the Mortgage Loan repayment date for a period of one year, which
period will not go beyond the latest Final Maturity Date.

     In connection with a foreclosure or other conversion, the Servicer shall
exercise such rights and powers vested in it hereunder and use the same degree
of care and skill in its exercise as prudent mortgage servicers would exercise
or use under the circumstances in the conduct of their own affairs and
consistent with Applicable Regulations and the servicing standards set forth in
the Fannie Mae Guide, including, without limitation, advancing funds for the
payment of taxes and insurance premiums with respect to first lien Mortgage
Loans.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.03, with respect
to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Servicer has received actual notice of, or
has actual knowledge of, the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance on the
related Mortgaged Property, the Servicer shall not either (i) obtain title to
such Mortgaged Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise,
or (ii) otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action with respect
to, such Mortgaged Property if, as a result of any such action, the Trust Fund
would be considered to hold title to, to be a mortgagee-in-possession of, or to
be an owner or operator of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as
amended from time to time, or any comparable law, unless the Servicer has also
previously determined, based on its reasonable judgment and a prudent report
prepared by a Person who regularly conducts environmental audits using customary
industry standards, that:

     A. such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental
laws or, if not, that it would be in the best economic interest of the
Certificateholders to take such actions as are necessary to bring the Mortgaged
Property into compliance therewith; and

     B. there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating
to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous substances, hazardous
materials, hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials for which
investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could
be required under any federal, state or local law or regulation, or that if any
such materials are present for which such action could be required, that it
would be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders to take such
actions with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property.

                                       67

<PAGE>

     The cost of the environmental audit report contemplated by this Section
3.03 shall be advanced by the Servicer, subject to the Servicer's right to be
reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.05(ii).

     If the Servicer determines, as described above, that it is in the best
economic interest of the Certificateholders to take such actions as are
necessary to bring any such Mortgaged Property into compliance with applicable
environmental laws, or to take such action with respect to the containment,
clean-up or remediation of hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous
wastes, or petroleum-based materials affecting any such Mortgaged Property, then
the Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic
interest of the Certificateholders. The cost of any such compliance,
containment, cleanup or remediation shall be advanced by the Servicer, subject
to the Servicer's right to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as
provided in Section 3.05(ii).

     Section 3.04 Collection Account and Distribution Account.

          (a) The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and
received pursuant to each Mortgage Loan separate and apart from any of its own
funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Collection
Accounts. Each Collection Account shall be an Eligible Account.

     The Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account on a daily basis
within two Business Days of receipt, and retain therein, the following payments
and collections received or made by it after the Cut-off Date with respect to
the Mortgage Loans:

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

               (ii) all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans
adjusted to the Mortgage Interest Rate less the Servicing Fee Rate;

               (iii) all proceeds from a Cash Liquidation;

               (iv) all Insurance Proceeds including amounts required to be
deposited pursuant to Section 3.10, other than proceeds to be held in the Escrow
Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or
released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicer's normal servicing
procedures, the loan documents or applicable law;

               (v) all Condemnation Proceeds affecting any Mortgaged Property
which are not released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicer's normal
servicing procedures, the loan documents or applicable law; and

               (vi) any amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer in
connection with any REO Property pursuant to Section 3.13.

     Any interest paid on funds deposited in the Collection Account, subject to
Section 3.25, shall accrue to the benefit of the Servicer and the Servicer shall
be entitled to retain and withdraw such interest from the Collection Account
pursuant to Section 3.05(v). The foregoing requirements for deposit from the
Collection Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that,
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late
payment charges, prepayment charges that are not prepayment penalties, and
assumption fees need not be deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account.

                                       68

<PAGE>

          (b) On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Trustee shall establish and
maintain one or more accounts (such account or accounts, the "Distribution
Account"), held in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders. On behalf of
the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee in immediately
available funds for deposit in the Distribution Account by the close of business
New York time on the Servicer Remittance Date, that portion of the Available
Funds (calculated without regard to the references in the definition thereof to
amounts that may be deposited to the Distribution Account from a different
source as provided herein) then on deposit in the Collection Account. Amounts in
the Distribution Account shall be deemed to be held on behalf of the related
REMICs in accordance with the REMIC distributions set forth in Section 9.01.
Funds on deposit in the Distribution Account will remain uninvested.

          (c) Funds in the Collection Account may be invested in Permitted
Investments in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 3.25. The
Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee certifying the location of the
Collection Account maintained by it when established and prior to any change
thereof. The Trustee shall give notice to the Servicer and the Depositor of the
location of the Distribution Account when established and prior to any change
thereof.

          (d) In the event the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit
in the Distribution Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it
may at any time in writing request that the Trustee withdraw such amount from
the Distribution Account and remit to the Servicer any such amount, any
provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In addition, the Servicer
shall deliver to the Trustee from time to time for deposit, and the Trustee
shall so deposit, in the Distribution Account in respect of the SWAP REMIC
(provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, any amounts
distributable to the Class P Certificates shall not, for federal income tax
purposes, be treated as part of any REMIC):

               (i) any Advances, as required pursuant to Section 4.07;

               (ii) any Stayed Funds, as soon as permitted by the federal
bankruptcy court having jurisdiction in such matters;

               (iii) any prepayment penalties or amounts in connection with the
waiver of such prepayment penalties, in each case required to be deposited
pursuant to Section 3.01;

               (iv) any amounts required to be deposited in the Distribution
Account pursuant to Sections 2.03, 3.04, 3.15, 3.16, 3.23 or 4.07; and

               (v) any amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer pursuant
to Section 3.11 in connection with the deductible clause in any blanket hazard
insurance policy, such deposit being made from the Servicer's own funds, without
reimbursement therefor.

          (e) Promptly upon receipt of any Stayed Funds, whether from the
Servicer, a trustee in bankruptcy, or federal bankruptcy court or other source,
the Trustee shall notify the Servicer of such receipt and deposit such funds in
the Distribution Account, subject to withdrawal thereof as permitted hereunder.

     Section 3.05 Permitted Withdrawals From the Collection Account.

     The Servicer may, from time to time, withdraw from the Collection Account
for the following purposes:

                                       69

<PAGE>

               (i) to remit to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution
Account (a) the amounts required to be so remitted pursuant to Section 3.04(b),
(b) the amounts permitted to be so remitted pursuant to the first sentence of
Section 3.04(d) or clause (ii) of the first sentence of the second paragraph of
Section 4.07(b), (c) any amounts required to be so remitted pursuant to Section
6.03 and (d) any amounts required to be so remitted pursuant to Section 8.05;

               (ii) to reimburse itself for (a) Advances and Servicing Advances
to the extent of amounts received on the related Mortgage Loan which represent
payments of (x) principal and/or interest respecting which any such Advance was
made or (y) Condemnation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds
respecting which any such Servicing Advance was made; or (b) any unreimbursed
Advances to the extent of funds held in the Collection Account for future
distributions that were not included in Available Funds for the preceding
Distribution Date (provided, however, any funds so applied will be replaced by
the Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account no later than one Business Day
prior to the Distribution Date on which such funds are required to be
distributed) and to reimburse itself for Advances and Servicing Advances made in
connection with the modification of a Mortgage Loan;

               (iii) to reimburse itself for unreimbursed Servicing Advances,
any unpaid Servicing Fees and for unreimbursed Advances to the extent that such
amounts are deemed to be Nonrecoverable Advances and to reimburse itself for
such amounts to the extent that such amounts are nonrecoverable from the
disposition of the related REO Property or have been written-off pursuant to
Section 3.13 hereof;

               (iv) to reimburse itself for any amounts paid pursuant to Section
3.03 (and not otherwise previously reimbursed);

               (v) to pay to itself as servicing compensation (a) any interest
earned on funds in the Collection Account (all such interest to be withdrawn
monthly not later than each Servicer Remittance Date) and (b) the Servicing Fee
from that portion of any payment or recovery as to interest to a particular
Mortgage Loan to the extent not retained pursuant to Section 3.04(d);

               (vi) to pay or reimburse itself for any amounts payable or paid
pursuant to Section 6.03 (and not otherwise previously reimbursed) and to
reimburse itself as set forth in Section 9.01(c); and

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

     The foregoing requirements for withdrawal from the Collection Account shall
be exclusive. In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account
any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw
such amount from the Collection Account, any provision herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.

     Section 3.06 Establishment of Escrow Account; Deposits in Escrow Account.

     The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received
pursuant to each Mortgage Loan which constitute Escrow Payments separate and
apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and
maintain one or more Escrow Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand
accounts. A copy of such letter agreement shall be furnished to the Trustee upon
request. The Escrow Account shall be an Eligible Account.

                                       70

<PAGE>

     The Servicer shall deposit in the Escrow Account on a daily basis within
two Business Days of receipt, and retain therein, (i) all Escrow Payments
collected on account of the Mortgage Loans, for the purpose of effecting timely
payment of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement, and
(ii) all Insurance Proceeds which are to be applied to the restoration or repair
of any Mortgaged Property. The Servicer shall make withdrawals therefrom only to
effect such payments as are required under this Agreement, and for such other
purposes as shall be set forth in, or in accordance with, Section 3.07. The
Servicer shall be entitled to retain any interest paid on funds deposited in the
Escrow Account by the depository institution other than interest on escrowed
funds required by law to be paid to the Mortgagor and, to the extent required by
the related Mortgage Loan or Applicable Regulations, the Servicer shall pay
interest on escrowed funds to the Mortgagor notwithstanding that the Escrow
Account is non-interest bearing or that interest paid thereon is insufficient
for such purposes.

     Section 3.07 Permitted Withdrawals From Escrow Account.

     Withdrawals from the Escrow Account may be made by the Servicer (i) to
effect timely payments of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, fire,
flood and hazard insurance premiums, Primary Insurance Policy premiums, if
applicable, and comparable items, (ii) to reimburse the Servicer for any
Servicing Advance made by the Servicer with respect to a related Mortgage Loan
but only from amounts received on the related Mortgage Loan which represent late
payments or Late Collections of Escrow Payments thereunder, (iii) to refund to
the Mortgagor any funds as may be determined to be overages, (iv) for transfer
to the Collection Account in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (v)
for application to restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property, (vi) to pay
to the Servicer, or to the Mortgagor to the extent required by the related
Mortgage Loan or Applicable Regulations, any interest paid on the funds
deposited in the Escrow Account, (vii) to clear and terminate the Escrow Account
on the termination of this Agreement, or (viii) to transfer to the Collection
Account any insurance proceeds. As part of its servicing duties, the Servicer
shall pay to the Mortgagor interest on funds in the Escrow Account, to the
extent required by the related Mortgage Loan or Applicable Regulations, and to
the extent that interest earned on funds in the Escrow Account is insufficient,
shall pay such interest from its own funds, without any reimbursement therefor.

     In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the Escrow Account any amount
not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount
from the Escrow Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

     Section 3.08 Payment of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges; Collections
     Thereunder.

     With respect to each first lien Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall maintain
accurate records reflecting the status of ground rents, taxes, assessments,
water rates and other charges which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged
Property and the status of Primary Insurance Policy premiums and fire, flood and
hazard insurance coverage and shall obtain, from time to time, all bills for the
payment of such charges (including renewal premiums) and shall effect payment
thereof prior to the applicable penalty or termination date and at a time
appropriate for securing maximum discounts allowable, employing for such purpose
deposits of the Mortgagor in the Escrow Account which shall have been estimated
and accumulated by the Servicer in amounts sufficient for such purposes, as
allowed under the terms of the Mortgage or Applicable Regulations. To the extent
that a Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall (i)
determine whether any such payments are made by the Mortgagor in a manner and at
a time that is necessary to avoid the loss of the Mortgaged Property due to a
tax sale or the foreclosure as a result of a tax lien and (ii) ensure that all
insurance required to be maintained on the Mortgaged Property pursuant to this
Agreement is maintained. If any such payment has not been made and the Servicer
receives notice of a tax lien with respect to the Mortgage Loan being imposed,
the Servicer will, to the extent required to avoid loss of the Mortgaged
Property, advance or cause to be

                                       71

<PAGE>

advanced funds necessary to discharge such lien on the Mortgaged Property. The
Servicer assumes full responsibility for the payment of all such bills and shall
effect payments of all such bills irrespective of the Mortgagor's faithful
performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and
shall make Servicing Advances from its own funds to effect such payments.

     The Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, as mortgagee, will maintain in full
force and effect (to the extent a Mortgage Loan has a Primary Insurance Policy)
a Primary Insurance Policy issued by a Qualified Insurer with respect to each
Mortgage Loan for which such coverage is required. Such coverage will be
maintained until the Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio of the related Mortgage Loan
is reduced to 80% or less. The Servicer will not cancel or refuse to renew any
Primary Insurance Policy in effect on the Closing Date that is required to be
kept in force under this Agreement unless a replacement Primary Insurance Policy
for such cancelled or non-renewed policy is obtained from and maintained with a
Qualified Insurer. The Servicer shall not take any action which would result in
non-coverage under any applicable Primary Insurance Policy of any loss which,
but for the actions of the Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. In
connection with any assumption or substitution agreement entered into or to be
entered into pursuant to Section 3.14, the Servicer shall promptly notify the
insurer under the related Primary Insurance Policy, if any, of such assumption
or substitution of liability in accordance with the terms of such policy and
shall take all actions which may be required by such insurer as a condition to
the continuation of coverage under the Primary Insurance Policy. If such Primary
Insurance Policy is terminated as a result of such assumption or substitution of
liability, the Servicer shall obtain a replacement Primary Insurance Policy as
provided above.

     In connection with its activities as servicer, the Servicer agrees to
prepare and present, on behalf of itself and the Trustee, claims to the insurer
under any Primary Insurance Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the
terms of such policies and, in this regard, to take such action as shall be
necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Insurance Policy respecting a
defaulted Mortgage Loan. Pursuant to Section 3.04, any amounts collected by the
Servicer under any Primary Insurance Policy shall be deposited in the Collection
Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.05.

     Section 3.09 Transfer of Accounts.

     The Servicer may transfer the Collection Account or the Escrow Account to a
different depository institution from time to time. Upon such transfer, the
Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and the Depositor, a certification or
letter agreement, as the case may be, as required pursuant to Sections 3.04 and
3.06.

     Section 3.10 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.

     The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each first lien Mortgage Loan
fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage as is customary in the area
where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which is at least equal to
the lesser of (i) the amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or
loss to the improvements which are a part of such property on a replacement cost
basis and (ii) the Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan, in each case in an
amount not less than such amount as is necessary to prevent the Mortgagor and/or
the Mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer. If the Mortgaged Property is in an
area identified in the Federal Register by the Flood Emergency Management Agency
as having special flood hazards and flood insurance has been made available, the
Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy meeting the
requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration
with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, in an amount representing
coverage not less than the least of (i) the Principal Balance of the Mortgage
Loan, (ii) the maximum insurable value of the improvements securing such
Mortgage Loan or (iii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under
the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended. The Servicer

                                       72

shall also maintain on the REO Property for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, (x) fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage in an
amount which is at least equal to the replacement cost of the improvements which
are a part of such property, (y) public liability insurance and, (z) to the
extent required and available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973,
as amended, flood insurance in an amount as provided above. Any amounts
collected by the Servicer under any such policies other than amounts to be
deposited in the Escrow Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the
Mortgaged Property or REO Property, or released to the Mortgagor in accordance
with the Servicer's normal servicing procedures, shall be deposited in the
Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.05. It is
understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is
required to be maintained by the Servicer or the Mortgagor or maintained on
property acquired in respect of the Mortgage Loan, other than pursuant to such
Applicable Regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require
such additional insurance. All such policies shall be endorsed with standard
mortgagee clauses with loss payable to the Servicer and shall provide for at
least thirty days prior written notice of any cancellation, reduction in the
amount of or material change in coverage to the Servicer. The Servicer shall not
interfere with the Mortgagor's freedom of choice in selecting either his
insurance carrier or agent, provided, however, that the Servicer shall not
accept any such insurance policies from insurance companies unless such
companies currently reflect a general policy rating of B:VI or better in Best's
Key Rating Guide and are licensed to do business in the state wherein the
property subject to the policy is located.

     Section 3.11 Maintenance of Mortgage Impairment Insurance Policy.

     In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy
issued by an insurer that has a general policy rating of B:VI or better in
Best's Key Rating Guide insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage
Loans, then, to the extent such policy provides coverage in an amount equal to
the amount required pursuant to Section 3.10 and otherwise complies with all
other requirements of Section 3.10, it shall conclusively be deemed to have
satisfied its obligations as set forth in Section 3.10, it being understood and
agreed that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the
Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the
related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with Section 3.10,
and there shall have been a loss which would have been covered by such policy,
deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account the amount not
otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause,
which amount shall not be reimbursable to the Servicer from the Trust Fund. In
connection with its activities as servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer
agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of the Trustee, claims under any such
blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy.
Upon request of the Trustee, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to the
Trustee a certified true copy of such policy and a statement from the insurer
thereunder that such policy shall in no event be terminated or materially
modified without thirty days prior written notice to the Trustee.

     Section 3.12 Fidelity Bond, Errors and Omissions Insurance.

     The Servicer shall maintain, at its own expense, a blanket fidelity bond
(the "Fidelity Bond") and an errors and omissions insurance policy, with broad
coverage with financially responsible companies on all officers, employees or
other persons acting in any capacity with regard to the Mortgage Loans to handle
funds, money, documents and papers relating to the Mortgage Loans. The Fidelity
Bond and errors and omissions insurance shall be in the form of the Mortgage
Banker's Blanket Bond and shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses,
including forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and omissions and
negligent acts of such persons. Such Fidelity Bond shall also protect and insure
the Servicer against losses in connection with the failure to maintain any
insurance policies required pursuant to this Agreement and the release or
satisfaction of a Mortgage Loan without having obtained payment in full of the
indebtedness secured thereby. No provision of this Section 3.12 requiring the
Fidelity Bond

                                       73

<PAGE>

and errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the Servicer from
its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. The minimum coverage
under any such bond and insurance policy shall be at least equal to the
corresponding amounts required by Fannie Mae in the Fannie Mae MBS Selling and
Servicing Guide or by Freddie Mac in the Freddie Mac Servicer's Guide. Upon the
request of any party hereto, each year the Servicer shall cause to be delivered
to such party proof of coverage of the Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions
insurance policy and a statement from the surety and the insurer that the surety
and the insurer shall endeavor to notify the Trustee within 30 days prior to
such Fidelity Bond's errors and omissions insurance policy's termination or
material modification.

     Section 3.13 Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property and Certain
     Delinquent Mortgage Loans.

          (a) In the event that title to a Mortgaged Property is acquired in
foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale
shall be taken (pursuant to a limited power of attorney to be provided by the
Trustee to the Servicer) in the name of the Trustee or a nominee thereof, on
behalf of the Certificateholders, or in the event the Trustee or a nominee
thereof is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the
state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under
the "doing business" or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or
certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as
shall be consistent with an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Servicer from an
attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is
located. Any Person or Persons holding such title other than the Trustee shall
acknowledge in writing that such title is being held as nominee for the benefit
of the Trustee.

          (b) In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any REO Property as
aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a
Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property before the end of
the third calendar year beginning after the year of its acquisition by the Trust
Fund for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or if the Trust Fund has
received (at the expense of the Trust Fund) from the Internal Revenue Service an
extension of the period during which it may hold such REO Property without such
REO Property failing to be treated as "foreclosure property" (within the meaning
of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code), before the end of such extension, unless the
Servicer obtains an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Servicer and the
Trustee, to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such REO Property
subsequent to such period will not: (i) result in the imposition of any tax on
"prohibited transactions" as defined in Section 860F of the Code; or (ii) cause
any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC at
any time that any Certificates are outstanding, in which case the Trust Fund may
continue to hold such REO Property (subject to any conditions contained in such
Opinion of Counsel). The Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the
Collection Account for any costs incurred in obtaining such Opinion of Counsel,
as provided in Section 3.05.

     Subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations as shall at any
time be in force, and notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no
REO Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed to continue
to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a
manner or pursuant to any terms that would: (i) cause such REO Property to fail
to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of
the Code; or (ii) subject any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund to the
imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from such REO
Property, including any taxes imposed by reason of Sections 860F or 860G(c) of
the Code, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the
Trust Fund with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.

     The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property
for the Certificateholders and the Trust Fund solely for the purpose of its
prompt disposition and sale in a manner

                                       74

<PAGE>

which does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure
property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the
receipt by the related REMIC of any "income from non-permitted assets" within
the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code, or any "net income from
foreclosure property" which is subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions.
The Servicer shall cause each REO Property to be inspected promptly upon the
acquisition of title thereto and shall cause each REO Property to be inspected
at least annually thereafter. The Servicer shall make or cause to be made a
written report of each such inspection. Such reports shall be retained in the
Mortgage Servicing File and copies thereof shall be forwarded by the Servicer to
the Trustee upon request. The Servicer shall attempt to sell the same (and may
temporarily rent the same) on such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to
be in the best interest of the Certificateholders and the Trust Fund.

     With respect to each REO Property, the Servicer shall account separately
for each REO Property with respect to all funds collected and received in
connection with the operation of such REO Property.

     The Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited, on a daily basis,
within two Business Days of receipt, in the Collection Account, all revenues
received with respect to each REO Property and shall withdraw therefrom funds
necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the related
REO Property, including the cost of maintaining any hazard insurance pursuant to
Section 3.10 hereof and the fees of any managing agent acting on behalf of the
Servicer.

     The Servicer shall furnish to the Trustee, on each Servicer Remittance
Date, an operating statement for each REO Property covering the operation of
each REO Property for the previous month. Such operating statement shall be
accompanied by such other information as the Trustee shall reasonably request.

     The Servicer shall use its best efforts to dispose of the REO Property as
promptly as is practically consistent with protecting the Certificateholders'
interests.

     Each REO Disposition shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price and
upon such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest
of the Certificateholders. If as of the date title to any REO Property was
acquired by the Servicer there were outstanding unreimbursed Servicing Advances
with respect to the REO Property or the related Mortgage Loan, the Servicer,
upon an REO Disposition of such REO Property, shall be entitled to reimbursement
for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances from proceeds received in
connection with such REO Disposition. The proceeds from the REO Disposition, net
of any payment to the Servicer as provided above, shall be deposited in the
Collection Account for distribution on the succeeding Servicer Remittance Date
in accordance with Section 4.01.

     Any REO Disposition shall be for cash only (unless changes in the REMIC
Provisions made subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other
consideration and an Opinion of Counsel is obtained by the Servicer to the
effect that such sale shall not cause any REMIC constituting part of the Trust
Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC).

          (c) The Servicer may write-off any Second Lien Mortgage Loan that has
been Delinquent for a period of 180 days or more if the Servicer determines that
any amount that could be recovered on such Mortgage Loan would be less than the
cost required to achieve such recovery.

     Section 3.14 Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption and Substitution Agreements.

     When a Mortgaged Property has been or is about to be conveyed by the
Mortgagor, the Servicer shall, to the extent it has knowledge of such conveyance
or prospective conveyance, exercise its rights to

                                       75

<PAGE>

accelerate the maturity of the related Mortgage Loan under any "due-on-sale"
clause contained in the related Mortgage or Mortgage Note; provided, however,
that the Servicer shall not exercise any such right if the "due-on-sale" clause,
in the reasonable belief of the Servicer, is not enforceable under applicable
law. An Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the Servicer (which expense shall
constitute a Servicing Advance) delivered to the Trustee and the Depositor to
the foregoing effect shall conclusively establish the reasonableness of such
belief. In such event, the Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to enter into
an assumption and modification agreement with the Person to whom such property
has been or is about to be conveyed, pursuant to which such Person becomes
liable under the Mortgage Note and, unless prohibited by applicable law or the
Mortgage, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. If the foregoing is not
permitted under applicable law, the Servicer is authorized to enter into a
substitution of liability agreement with such Person, pursuant to which the
original Mortgagor is released from liability and such Person is substituted as
Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Note. In addition to the foregoing, the
Servicer shall not be required to enforce any "due-on-sale" clause if, in the
reasonable judgment of the Servicer, entering into an assumption and
modification agreement with a person to whom such Mortgaged Property shall be
conveyed and releasing the original Mortgagor from liability would be in the
best interests of the Certificateholders. The Mortgage Loan, as assumed, shall
conform in all respects to the requirements, representations and warranties of
this Agreement. The Servicer shall notify the Trustee that any such assumption
or substitution agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Trustee (or
the Custodian, as the case may be) the original copy of such assumption or
substitution agreement (indicating the Mortgage File to which it relates) which
copy shall be added by the Trustee (or the Custodian, as the case may be) to the
related Mortgage File and which shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of
such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments
constituting a part thereof. The Servicer shall be responsible for recording any
such assumption or substitution agreements. In connection with any such
assumption or substitution agreement, the Monthly Payment on the related
Mortgage Loan shall not be changed but shall remain as in effect immediately
prior to the assumption or substitution, the stated maturity or outstanding
principal amount of such Mortgage Loan shall not be changed nor shall any
required monthly payments of principal or interest be deferred or forgiven. Any
fee collected by the Servicer for consenting to any such conveyance or entering
into an assumption or substitution agreement shall be retained by or paid to the
Servicer as additional servicing compensation.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this
Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any
other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a
Mortgage Loan by operation of law or any assumption which the Servicer may be
restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever.

     Section 3.15 Notification of Adjustments.

     On each Adjustment Date, the Servicer shall make Mortgage Interest Rate
adjustments for each Mortgage Loan in compliance with the requirements of the
related Mortgage and Mortgage Note and Applicable Regulations. The Servicer
shall execute and deliver the notices required by each Mortgage and Mortgage
Note and Applicable Regulations regarding Mortgage Interest Rate adjustments.
The Servicer also shall provide timely notification to the Trustee of all
applicable data and information regarding such Mortgage Interest Rate
adjustments and the Servicer's methods of implementing such Mortgage Interest
Rate adjustments. Upon the discovery by the Servicer or the Trustee that the
Servicer has failed to adjust or has incorrectly adjusted a Mortgage Interest
Rate or a Monthly Payment pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Note and
Mortgage, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the
Distribution Account from its own funds the amount of any interest loss caused
thereby without reimbursement therefor; provided, however, the Servicer shall be
held harmless with respect to any Mortgage Interest Rate adjustments made by any
servicer prior to the Servicer.

     Section 3.16 Optional Purchases of Mortgage Loans by Servicer.

     The Servicer (or an affiliate of the Servicer) may, at its option, purchase
a Mortgage Loan or REO Property which becomes 120 or more days Delinquent or for
which the Servicer has accepted a deed in lieu of foreclosure, during the period
commencing on the first day of the calendar quarter succeeding the calendar
quarter in which the Initial Delinquency Date occurred with respect to such
Mortgage Loan and ending on the last Business Day of such calendar quarter. If
the Servicer (or an affiliate of the Servicer) does not exercise its purchase
right with respect to a Mortgage Loan during the period specified in the
preceding sentence, such Mortgage Loan shall thereafter again become eligible
for purchase pursuant to the preceding sentence only after the Mortgage Loan
ceases to be 120 days or more Delinquent and thereafter becomes 120 days
Delinquent again. The "Initial Delinquency Date" of a Mortgage Loan shall mean
the date on which the Mortgage Loan first became 120 days Delinquent. Prior to
repurchase pursuant to this Section 3.16, the Servicer shall be required to
continue to make monthly advances pursuant to Section 4.07. The Servicer shall
not use any procedure in selecting Mortgage Loans to be repurchased which is
materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders. The Servicer
shall purchase such (i) delinquent Mortgage Loan at a price equal to the
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan plus accrued interest thereon at the
Mortgage Interest Rate from the date to which interest has last been paid to the
Trust Fund to the date of purchase plus any unreimbursed Servicing Advances and
Advances or (ii) REO Property at its fair market value as determined in good
faith by the Servicer. Any such repurchase of a Mortgage Loan or REO Property
pursuant to this Section 3.16(a) shall be accomplished by delivery to the
Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account of the amount of the purchase
price. The Trustee shall immediately effectuate the conveyance of such
delinquent Mortgage Loan or REO Property to the Servicer to the extent
necessary, including the prompt delivery of all necessary documentation provided
by it to the Servicer.

     Section 3.17 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Files.

          (a) Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan (including any
liquidation of such Mortgage Loan through foreclosure or otherwise, or the
receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed
in a manner customary for such purposes), the Servicer shall deliver to the
Trustee (or the Custodian as the case may be) two executed copies of a completed
"Request for Release" in the form of Exhibit E. Upon receipt of such Request for
Release of Documents, the Trustee (or the Custodian as the case may be) shall
promptly release the related Mortgage File, in trust to (i) the Servicer, or
(ii) such other party identified in the related Request for Release. Upon any
such payment in full, or the receipt of such notification that such funds have
been placed in escrow, the Servicer shall direct the Trustee in writing to
execute an instrument of satisfaction (or assignment of Mortgage without
recourse, representation or warranty) regarding the Mortgaged Property relating
to such Mortgage, which instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case
may be, shall be delivered to the Person or Persons entitled thereto against
receipt therefor of payment in full, it being understood and agreed that no
expense incurred in connection with such instrument of satisfaction or
assignment, as the case may be, shall be chargeable to the Collection Account.
In lieu of executing any such satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be,
the Servicer may prepare and submit to the Trustee a satisfaction (or assignment
without recourse, representation or warranty if requested by the Person or
Persons entitled thereto) in form for execution by the Trustee with all
requisite information completed by the Servicer; in such event, the Trustee
shall execute and acknowledge such satisfaction or assignment, as the case may
be, and deliver the same with the related Mortgage File, as aforesaid.

          (b) From time to time and as appropriate in the servicing of any
Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, foreclosure or other comparable
conversion of a Mortgage Loan or collection under any insurance policy relating
to a Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall (except in the case of the payment or
liquidation pursuant to which the related Mortgage File is released to an escrow
agent or

                                       77

<PAGE>

an employee, agent or attorney of the Trustee), upon written request of the
Servicer and delivery to the Trustee (or the Custodian, as the case may be) of
two executed copies of a "Request for Release" in the form of Exhibit E signed
by a Servicing Officer, release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer and
shall execute such documents as shall be necessary to the prosecution of any
such proceedings, including, without limitation, an assignment without recourse,
representation or warranty of the related Mortgage to the Servicer. Such receipt
shall obligate the Servicer to return the Mortgage File to the Trustee (or the
Custodian, as the case may be) when the need therefor by the Servicer no longer
exists unless the Mortgage Loan shall be liquidated, in which case, upon receipt
of a Request for Release evidencing such liquidation, the receipt shall be
released by the Trustee (or the Custodian, as the case may be) to the Servicer.

          (c) Subject to Section 3.01, the Servicer shall have the right to
accept applications of Mortgagors for consent to (i) partial releases of
Mortgages, (ii) alterations, (iii) removal, demolition or division of properties
subject to Mortgages and (iv) second mortgage subordination agreements. No
application for approval shall be considered by the Servicer unless: (w) it has
received an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee (which opinion shall
not be an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund) that such sale, disposition,
substitution, acquisition or contribution will not affect adversely the status
of any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund as a REMIC or cause any REMIC
constituting part of the Trust Fund to be subject to a tax on "prohibited
transactions" or "contributions" pursuant to the REMIC Provisions; (x) the
provisions of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage have been complied with;
(y) the Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio and debt-to-income ratio after any release
does not exceed the maximum Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio and debt-to-income
ratio established in accordance with the underwriting standards of the Mortgage
Loans; and (z) the lien priority of the related Mortgage is not affected. Upon
receipt by the Trustee of a Servicing Officer's certificate setting forth the
action proposed to be taken in respect of a particular Mortgage Loan and
certifying that the criteria set forth in the immediately preceding sentence
have been satisfied, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer the
consent or partial release so requested by the Servicer. A proposed form of
consent or partial release, as the case may be, shall accompany any Servicing
Officer's certificate delivered by the Servicer pursuant to this paragraph.

     Section 3.18 Servicing Compensation.

     As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Servicer shall be
entitled to retain the amount of the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage
Loan (including REO Properties). The Servicer shall be entitled to retain
additional servicing compensation in the form of release fees, bad check
charges, assumption fees, modification or extension fees, late payment charges,
customary real-estate referral fees, Prepayment Interest Excess or any other
service-related fees, Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds not required
to be deposited in the Collection Account or the Distribution Account and
similar items, to the extent collected from Mortgagors.

     Section 3.19 Annual Statement as to Compliance.

          (a) The Servicer, at its own expense, will deliver to the Trustee and
the Depositor, not later than March 15 of each year, commencing in 2007, a
Servicing Officer's certificate, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit P-4,
stating, as to each signer thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the
Servicer during such preceding calendar year (or such shorter period in the case
of the first such report) and of performance of such Servicer under this
Agreement has been made under such officers' supervision, and (ii) to the best
of such officers' knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled
all its obligations under this Agreement for such year, or, if there has been a
failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect throughout such
year, specifying each failure known to such officer and the nature and status
thereof. During the period when reports under the Exchange Act are

                                       78

<PAGE>

required to be filed, with respect to any Subservicer that meets the criteria of
Item 1108(a)(2)(i) through (iii) of Regulation AB, the Servicer shall cause each
Subservicer to deliver the Officer's Certificate set forth in this Section
3.19(a) as and when required with respect to the Servicer. For purposes of
clause (ii) above, the Servicer or Subservicer will be entitled to rely upon a
certification received by any Subcontractor.

          (b) Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee
is for informational purposes only and its receipt of such shall not constitute
constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable, from
information contained therein, including the Servicer's compliance with any of
its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively
on Officers' Certificates).

     Section 3.20 Reports on Assessment of Compliance and Attestation.

          (a) Not later than the earlier of (a) March 15 of each calendar year
(other than the calendar year during which the Closing Date occurs) or (b) with
respect to any calendar year during which an annual report on Form 10-K is
required to be filed pursuant to Section 3.29 on behalf of the Trust, 15
calendar days before each date on which that annual report on Form 10-K is
required to be filed, pursuant to Section 3.29 (or if such day is not a Business
Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), the Servicer, at its own expense,
shall deliver to the Depositor, the Trustee and each Rating Agency an officer's
certification and assessment of its compliance with the Servicing Criteria
during the preceding calendar year as required by Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the
Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB (the "Assessment of Compliance"),
which assessment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1 hereto. The
parties acknowledge and agree that the items indicated as being subject to
assessment by each such party on Exhibit P-2 hereto are the items to be assessed
by such party as of the Closing Date and that any changes to such allocation of
assessment responsibilities will be made by mutual agreement of the parties. Any
such changes will not require an amendment of this Agreement.

          (b) Not later than the earlier of (a) March 15 of each calendar year
(other than the calendar year during which the Closing Date occurs) or (b) with
respect to any calendar year during which an annual report on Form 10-K is
required to be filed pursuant to Section 3.29 on behalf of the Trust, 15
calendar days before each date on which that annual report on Form 10-K is
required to be filed pursuant to Section 3.29 (or if such day is not a Business
Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), the Servicer, at its own expense,
shall cause a nationally or regionally recognized firm of independent registered
public accountants (who may also render other services to the Servicer, the
Seller or any affiliate thereof), which is a member of the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants to furnish a statement to the Depositor and the
Trustee, that attests to and reports on the assessment of compliance provided by
the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.20(a) (the "Accountant's Attestation"). Such
Accountant's Attestation shall be in accordance with Rules 1-02(a)(3) and
2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

          (c) The Servicer shall cause any Subservicer and each Subcontractor to
deliver, if applicable, with respect to any calendar year during which the
Depositor's annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance
with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, 15 calendar days before the date on which the Depositor's
annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (or, in each case, if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately
preceding Business Day) to the Depositor and the Trustee an Assessment of
Compliance, which assessment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1
hereto.

          (d) With respect to any calendar year during which the Depositor's
annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, 15 calendar days before the date on which the Depositor's annual
report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the Exchange Act
and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (or, in
each case, if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business
Day), the Servicer shall cause each Subservicer and each Subcontractor to
deliver to the Depositor and the Trustee an Accountant's Attestation by a
registered public accounting firm that attests to, and reports on, the
Assessment of Compliance pursuant to Section 3.20 (c) above.

          (e) With respect to any calendar year during which the Depositor's
annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, not later than 15 calendar days before the date on which the
Depositor's annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance
with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (or, in each case, if such day is not a Business Day, the
immediately preceding Business Day), the Depositor shall cause the Custodian to
deliver to the Depositor and the Trustee an Assessment of Compliance with regard
to the Servicing Criteria applicable to the Custodian during the preceding
calendar year, which assessment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit
P-1 hereto.

          (f) With respect to any calendar year during which the Depositor's
annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, not later than 15 calendar days before the date on which the

deliver to the Depositor and the Trustee an Accountant's Attestation by a
registered public accounting firm that attests to, and reports on, the
Assessment of Compliance pursuant to Section 3.20(e) above.

          (g) With respect to any calendar year during which the Depositor's
annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, not later than 15 calendar days before the date on which the
Depositor's annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance
with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (or, in each case, if such day is not a Business Day, the
immediately preceding Business Day), the Depositor shall cause the Trustee to
deliver to the Depositor an Assessment of Compliance with regard to the
Servicing Criteria applicable to the Trustee during the preceding calendar year,
which assessment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1 hereto.

          (h) With respect to any calendar year during which the Depositor's
annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, not later than 15 calendar days before the date on which the
Depositor's annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance
with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (or, in each case, if such day is not a Business Day, the
immediately preceding Business Day), the Depositor shall cause the Trustee to
deliver to the Depositor an Accountant's Attestation by a registered public
accounting firm that attests to, and reports on, the Assessment of Compliance
pursuant to Section 3.20(g) above.

          (i) The Servicer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the
Depositor, the Trustee and each Person, if any, who "controls" the Depositor or
the Trustee within the meaning of the Securities Act and their respective
officers, directors and affiliates from and against any losses, damages,

                                       80

penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related
costs, judgments and other costs and expenses that such Person actually sustains
out of third party claims based on (i) the failure of the Servicer or any
related Subservicer or Subcontractor to deliver or cause to be delivered when
required any Assessment of Compliance or Accountant's Attestation required of it
pursuant to this Section 3.20, as applicable, or (ii) any material misstatement
contained in any Assessment of Compliance provided on its behalf pursuant to
this Section 3.20, as applicable.

          (j) The Trustee agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the
Depositor, the Servicer and each Person, if any, who "controls" the Depositor or
the Servicer within the meaning of the Securities Act and their respective
officers, directors and affiliates from and against any losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related
costs, judgments and other costs and expenses that such Person may sustain
arising out of third party claims based on (i) the failure of the Trustee to
deliver or cause to be delivered when required any Assessment of Compliance
required of it pursuant to Section 3.20(g), or (ii) any material misstatement
contained in any Assessment of Compliance provided on its behalf pursuant to
this Section 3.20, as applicable. Failure by the Trustee to deliver an
Accountant's Attestation when required under Section 3.20 will be grounds for
immediate removal of the Trustee under Section 8.07; in the event of such
failure, the Trustee shall pay certain costs and expenses of the Depositor
caused by such failure as separately agreed to by the Depositor and the Trustee.

          (k) Copies of such Assessments of Compliance and Accountant's
Attestations shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder, upon
request, provided such statement is delivered to the Trustee. The initial
Assessments of Compliance and Accountant's Attestations required pursuant to
this Section 3.20 shall be delivered to the Trustee and the Depositor, as
applicable, by each party no later than March 15, 2007.

     Section 3.21 Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the
     Mortgage Loans.

     The Servicer shall provide to the Trustee, Certificateholders that are
federally insured savings and loan associations, the Office of Thrift
Supervision, the FDIC and the supervisory agents and examiners of each of the
foregoing (which, in the case of supervisory agents and examiners, may be
required by applicable state and federal regulations) access to the
documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans, such access being afforded without
charge but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the
offices of the Servicer designated by it.

     Section 3.22 Reserved.

     Section 3.23 Obligations of the Servicer in Respect of Compensating
     Interest.

     Not later than the close of business on each Servicer Remittance Date, the
Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account an
amount ("Compensating Interest") equal to the lesser of (A) the aggregate of the
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the Mortgage Loans for the related
Distribution Date resulting from Principal Prepayments in full on the Mortgage
Loans during the related Prepayment Period and (B) 50% of its aggregate
Servicing Fee received in the related Collection Period. The Servicer shall
apply Compensating Interest to offset any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the
Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall not have the right to reimbursement for any
amounts remitted to the Trustee in respect of Compensating Interest. Such
amounts so remitted shall be included in the Available Funds and distributed
therewith on the next Distribution Date. The Servicer shall not be obligated to
pay Compensating Interest with respect to Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on

     Section 3.24 Obligations of the Servicer in Respect of Mortgage Interest
Rates and Monthly Payments.

     In the event that a shortfall in any collection on or liability with
respect to any Mortgage Loan results from or is attributable to adjustments to
Mortgage Interest Rates, Monthly Payments or Principal Balances that were made
by the Servicer in a manner not consistent with the terms of the related
Mortgage Note and this Agreement, the Servicer, upon discovery or receipt of
notice thereof, immediately shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the
Distribution Account from its own funds the amount of any such shortfall and
shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor and
any successor servicer in respect of any such liability. Such indemnities shall
survive the termination or discharge of this Agreement.

     Section 3.25 Investment of Funds in the Collection Account and the
Distribution Account.

          (a) The Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining the
Collection Account to invest the funds in the Collection Account in one or more
Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing,
unless payable on demand, (i) no later than the Business Day immediately
preceding the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such
account pursuant to this Agreement, if a Person other than the Trustee is the
obligor thereon, and (ii) no later than the date on which such funds are
required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the
Trustee is the obligor thereon. In the absence of such direction, funds in the
Collection Account shall remain uninvested. All such Permitted Investments shall
be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any investment of funds in the
Collection Account shall be made in the name of the Trustee or the Servicer, as
applicable (in its capacity as such) or in the name of a nominee of the Trustee.
The Trustee shall be entitled to sole possession (except with respect to
investment direction of funds held in the Collection Account) over each such
investment and the income thereon, and any certificate or other instrument
evidencing any such investment shall be delivered directly to the Trustee or its
agent, together with any document of transfer necessary to transfer title to
such investment to the Trustee or its nominee. In the event amounts on deposit
in the Collection Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment
payable on demand, the Trustee shall at the direction of the Servicer:

          (x)  consistent with any notice required to be given thereunder,
               demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such
               Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount
               equal to the lesser of (1) all amounts then payable thereunder
               and (2) the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and

          (y)  demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon
               determination by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee that such
               Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment
               in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the Collection
               Account.

          (b) All income and gain realized from the investment of funds in the
Collection Account shall be for the benefit of the Servicer. The Servicer shall
deposit in the Collection Account the amount of any loss incurred in respect of
any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such account immediately upon
realization of such loss. Funds on deposit in the Distribution Account will
remain uninvested.

          (c) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any
default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or
if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted
Investment, the Trustee may and, subject to Section 8.01 and Section 8.02(a)(v),
upon the request of the Holders of Certificates representing more than 50% of
the

                                       82

<PAGE>

Voting Rights allocated to any Class of Certificates, shall take such action as
may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the
institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.

     The Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of any
insufficiency in any Account held by the Trustee resulting from any investment
loss on any Permitted Investment included therein (except to the extent that the
Trustee is the obligor and has defaulted thereon).

     Section 3.26 Liability of Servicer; Indemnification.

          (a) Subject to clause (b) below and Section 6.03, the Servicer (or its
successor hereunder (except the Trustee if it is required to succeed the
Servicer hereunder)) indemnifies and holds the Trustee, the Seller, the
Depositor and each Certificateholder harmless against any and all claims,
losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs,
judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Trustee, the
Depositor and any Certificateholder may sustain in any way related to the
failure of the Servicer to perform its duties and service the Mortgage Loans in
compliance with the Servicing Standards. The Servicer shall immediately notify
the Trustee, the Depositor and each Certificateholder if a claim is made that
may result in such claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees or
related costs, judgments, or any other costs, fees and expenses, and the
Servicer shall assume (with the consent of the Trustee) the defense of any such
claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including reasonable counsel
fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may
be entered against the Servicer, Trustee, the Depositor and/or Certificateholder
in respect of such claim. The provisions of this Section 3.26 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement, the termination or resignation of the Servicer or
the Trustee and the payment of the outstanding Certificates.

          (b) None of the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, or any of the
directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor, the Seller or the
Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trust Fund or the
Certificateholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of
any action, in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment;
provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Depositor, the
Seller or the Servicer or any such Person against any breach of warranties or
representations made herein, or against any specific liability imposed on the
Servicer for a breach of the Servicing Standard, or against any liability which
would otherwise be imposed by reason of its respective willful misfeasance, bad
faith, fraud or negligence in the performance of its duties or by reasons of
negligent disregard of its respective obligations or duties hereunder.

     The Depositor, the Servicer, the Seller and any director, officer, employee
or agent of the Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer, may rely in good faith on
any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted
by any appropriate Person with respect to any matters arising hereunder. The
Depositor, the Servicer, the Seller, and any director, officer, employee or
agent of the Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer shall be indemnified and held
harmless by the Trust Fund against any loss, liability or expense incurred in
connection with any legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates,
other than any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal
action incurred by reason of its respective misfeasance, bad faith, fraud or
negligence, a breach of a representation or warranty hereunder or (in the case
of the Servicer) a breach of the Servicing Standard in the performance of its
respective duties or by reason of negligent disregard of its respective
obligations or duties hereunder. Neither the Depositor, the Seller nor the
Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any
legal action unless such action is related to its respective duties under this
Agreement and in its opinion does not expose it to any expense or liability;
provided, however, that the Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer may in its
discretion undertake any action related to its obligations

                                       83

<PAGE>

hereunder which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to this
Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of
the Certificateholders hereunder.

     Section 3.27 Reports of Foreclosure and Abandonment of Mortgaged
Properties.

     On or before the last day of February of each year beginning in 2007, the
Servicer shall file the reports of foreclosure and abandonment of any Mortgaged
Property required by Section 6050J of the Code with the Internal Revenue Service
and provide an Officer's Certificate certifying its compliance with this Section
3.27 to the Trustee. The reports from the Servicer shall be in form and
substance sufficient to meet the reporting requirements imposed by such Section
6050J.

     Section 3.28 Protection of Assets.

          (a) Except for transactions and activities entered into in connection
with the securitization that is the subject of this Agreement, the Trust is not
authorized and has no power to:

                    (1)  borrow money or issue debt;

                    (2)  merge with another entity, reorganize, liquidate or
                         sell assets; or

                    (3)  engage in any business or activities.

          (b) Each party to this Agreement agrees that it will not file an
involuntary bankruptcy petition against the Trustee or the Trust Fund or
initiate any other form of insolvency proceeding until after the Certificates
have been paid.

     Section 3.29 Periodic Filings.

          (a) The Trustee will prepare and file Current Reports on Form 8-K in
respect of the Trust at the direction and expense of the Depositor, provided,
that, as set forth on Exhibit R, the Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer shall
have timely notified the Trustee of an item reportable on a Form 8-K and shall
have delivered to the Trustee no later than three Business Days prior to the
filing deadline for such Form 8-K, all information, data, and exhibits required
to be provided or filed with such Form 8-K in electronic or other such other
format reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. To the extent that a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of an event relating to Items 3.03,
6.02, 6.03 or 6.04 of Form 8-K, the Trustee shall notify the Depositor of such
event. The Trustee shall not be responsible for determining what information is
required to be filed on a Form 8-K in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or what events shall cause a Form 8-K to be
required to be filed and shall not be liable for any late filing of a Form 8-K
in the event that it does not receive all information, data, signatures and
exhibits required to be provided or filed on or prior to the second Business Day
prior to the applicable filing deadline. Within 15 days after each Distribution
Date, the Trustee shall, on behalf of the Trust and in accordance with industry
standards, file with the Securities and Exchange Commission via the Electronic
Data Gathering and Retrieval System ("EDGAR"), a Form 10-D (or other comparable
form containing the same or comparable information or other information mutually
agreed upon) with, as set forth on Exhibit S, (1) a copy of the report to the
Certificateholders for such Distribution Date as an exhibit thereto and (2) such
other information provided to the Trustee as identified on Exhibit S; provided
that such information is provided to the Trustee no later than the first
Business Day immediately following the related Distribution Date. Prior to March
30, 2007 (and, if applicable, prior to March 30 of each subsequent year), the
Trustee shall, on behalf of the Trust and in accordance with industry standards,
prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission via EDGAR a Form
10-K with respect to the Trust Fund. As set forth on Exhibit T, such Form 10-K
shall

                                       84

<PAGE>

include as exhibits, each annual statement of compliance required to be
delivered pursuant to Section 3.19 and each Accountant's Attestation and
Assessment of Compliance required to be furnished pursuant to Section 3.20, in
each case to the extent they have been timely delivered to the Trustee (or the
Depositor, in the case of the Trustee's Assessment of Compliance) and such other
information as is required by Regulation AB. The Servicer will cause its senior
officer in charge of securitization to execute the certification, in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit P-3 (the "Form 10-K Certification") required pursuant
to Rule 13a -14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the
Trustee shall file the same with the Securities and Exchange Commission prior to
March 30, 2007 (and, if applicable, prior to March 30 of each year). In
connection therewith, the Trustee shall sign a certification (in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit P-5) for the benefit of the Depositor and the
Servicer and their officers, directors and affiliates regarding certain aspects
of the Form 10-K Certification (the "Trustee's Certification"). To the extent
any information or exhibits required to be included in the Form 10-K are not
timely received by the Trustee prior to March 30, the Trustee shall, on behalf
of the Trust, file one or more amended Form 10-Ks to include such missing
information or exhibits promptly after receipt thereof by the Trustee. Promptly
following the first date legally permissible under applicable regulations and
interpretations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Trustee shall, on
behalf of the Trust and in accordance with industry standards, file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission via EDGAR a Form 15 Suspension Notification
with respect to the Trust Fund, if applicable. The Servicer agrees to furnish to
the Trustee promptly, from time to time upon request, such further information,
reports and financial statements within its control related to this Agreement
and the Mortgage Loans as the Trustee reasonably deems appropriate to prepare
and file all necessary reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Upon
the preparation of each Form 10-D filing by the Trustee, such Form 10-D filing
shall be submitted to the Servicer. Upon receipt of written notice to the
Trustee via electronic mail to michael.bengtson@usbank.com, with a copy to
sheryl.christopherson@usbank.com, and from the Servicer that the Form 10-D is
ready for filing, the Trustee shall attach to any Form 10-D the signature page
of the Servicer (such signature page to have been delivered by the Servicer to
the Trustee on the Closing Date) and submit such Form 10-D for filing with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The Trustee shall provide a copy of each
Form 10-D and Form 8-K to each of the Servicer and the Depositor. The Trustee
shall have no responsibility to file any items with the Securities and Exchange
Commission other than those specified in this section and the Servicer shall
execute any and all Form 8-Ks, 10-Ds and 10-Ks required hereunder. All materials
provided to the Trustee relating to the Form 8-Ks, 10-Ds and 10-Ks required
hereunder shall be provided in electronic format compatible with the EDGAR
system, which may be in Microsoft Word. To the extent that (i) no notice is
provided to the Trustee of events or information reportable in any Form 8-K,
(ii) no notice is provided of events or information reportable in any Form 10-D
by the first Business Day after the related Distribution Date or (iii) no notice
is provided of events or information reportable in any Form 10-K by March 15 of
each year, in each case the Trustee shall without further notice conclude that
there is no event or information to be reported. Notwithstanding anything set
forth herein, the Servicer will not be responsible for the filing of any Form
8-K or Form 10-D filed on behalf of the Trust (including but not limited to the
timing of any filing or completeness of such filings) and will not be
responsible for determining whether the content of any Form 8-K or Form 10-D
filed on behalf of the Trust is accurate or correct (unless such information is
contained in the Remittance Report or otherwise specific to the Servicer, in
which case the Servicer will be responsible for making such a determination).

(b) The Trustee shall, subject to Sections 8.01 and 8.02, indemnify and hold
harmless the Depositor, the Servicer and any director, officer, employee or
agent of the Depositor and the Servicer and hold them harmless against any and
all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and
necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and
expenses (other than punitive damages) that any of them may sustain in any way
related to (x) a breach of its obligation or the failure of the Trustee to
perform any of its obligations pursuant to Section 3.29(a), (y) or Trustee's
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith or any
inaccuracy in the Trustee's Certification and (z) any inaccurate information
provided by the Trustee (to the extent such

                                       85

<PAGE>

inaccuracy is not due to inaccurate information provided to the Trustee by the
Servicer or any other party) that is contained in any Form 10-D filed with the
SEC, other than any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable
and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs, fees and
expenses arising out of the Servicer's or any other party's breach of its
obligations under this Agreement or any other related agreement. If the
indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold
harmless any indemnified party, then the Trustee shall contribute to the amount
paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims,
damages or liabilities of such indemnified party in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnified party on the one
hand and the Trustee on the other.

          (c) The Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and its
officers, directors and Affiliates from and against any losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related
costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of the Servicer's
failure to sign and deliver either the certification or the Form 10-K within the
time frame provided in Section 3.29(a), other than any losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related
costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of the Trustee's
breach of its obligations under this Agreement. If the indemnification provided
for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Trustee and its
officers, directors and Affiliates, then the Servicer shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by the Trustee, its officers, directors or Affiliates as
a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Trustee, its
officers, directors or Affiliates in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect the relative fault of the Trustee and its officers, directors and
Affiliates on the one hand and the Servicer on the other.

          (d) If the Securities and Exchange Commission issues additional
interpretative guidance or promulgates additional rules or regulations with
respect to Regulation AB or otherwise, or if other changes in applicable law
occur, that would require the reporting arrangements, or the allocation of
responsibilities with respect thereto, described in this Section 3.29, to be
conducted differently than as described, the Depositor, the Servicer, and the
Trustee will reasonably cooperate to amend the provisions of this Section 3.29
in order to comply with such amended reporting requirements and such amendment
of this Section 3.29. Any such amendment shall be made in accordance with the
first paragraph of Section 11.01 without the consent of the Certificateholders
and without the requirement to deliver notice in writing to the Depositor, the
Servicer and the Trustee from the Rating Agencies that such action will not
result in the reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any outstanding Class of
Certificates with respect to which it is a Rating Agency. Such amendment may
result in the reduction of the reports filed by the Trustee on behalf of the
Trust under the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the
Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee shall be obligated to enter into any
amendment pursuant to this Section 3.29 that adversely affects its obligations
and immunities under this Agreement.

          (e) In filing any Monthly Form 8-K or Form 10-K, the Trustee shall not
undertake any analysis of, and shall have no responsibility for, any financial
information, accountant's report, certification or other matter contained
therein, except for computations performed by the Trustee and reflected in the
statement set forth in Section 4.06(a) hereof.

          (f) The Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee agree to use their
good faith efforts to cooperate in complying with the requirements of this
Section 3.29.

          (g) Upon any filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the
Trustee shall promptly deliver to the Depositor and the Servicer a copy of any
such executed report, statement or information.

                                       86

<PAGE>

          (h) The obligations set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this
Section shall only apply with respect to periods for which reports are required
to be filed with respect to the Trust under the Exchange Act. Prior to January
30 of the first year in which the Trustee is able to do so under applicable law,
the Trustee shall file a Form 15 Suspension Notification with respect to the
Trust. At any time after the filing of a Form 15 Suspension Notification, if the
number of Certificateholders of record exceeds the number set forth in Section
15(d) of the Exchange Act or the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto which
would cause the Trust to again become subject to the reporting requirements of
the Exchange Act, the Trustee, solely at the Depositor's prior written direction
and expense, shall recommence preparing and filing reports on Form 10-K and 10-D
as required pursuant to this Section 3.29 and the parties hereto shall again
have the obligations set forth in this Section.

          (i) For so long as reports are required to be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act with respect to the
Trust, each of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Servicer and the Seller shall
notify the Depositor and the Trustee in writing of any litigation or proceeding
that would be material to Certificateholders pending against such notifying
person (or, in the case of the Servicer, against the Servicer or any Subservicer
engaged by it), or, with respect to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Seller,
any affiliations or relationships that develop following the Closing Date
between such notifying person (or, in the case of the Servicer, between the
Servicer or any Subservicer engaged by it) and any other party hereto or an
Originator, that may have to be reported on a Form 8-K, Form 10-K or Form 10-D
with respect to the Trust.

          (j) For so long as reports are required to be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act with respect to the
Trust, the Depositor shall notify the Servicer and the Trustee in writing within
10 days following any Distribution Date as to whether the registrant (1) has
filed all reports required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period
that the registrant was required to file such reports), and (2) has been subject
to such filing requirements for the past 90 days. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
unless otherwise indicated in writing by the Depositor within such 10 day-period
of time, the Depositor shall be deemed to have notified the Servicer and the
Trustee in the affirmative as to clauses (1) and (2) above. The Depositor shall
indemnify and hold harmless each of the Servicer and the Trustee, and officers,
directors and Affiliates of each, from and against any losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related
costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of the Depositor's
failure to provide the accurate information required pursuant to this Section
3.29(j), other than any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs
and expenses arising out of the Servicer's or the Trustee's breach of its
respective obligations under this Agreement. If the indemnification provided for
herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Servicer or the
Trustee and its respective officers, directors and Affiliates, then the
Depositor shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Servicer, or the
Trustee, as the case may be, its respective officers, directors or Affiliates as
a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Servicer, or the
Trustee, as the case may be, its respective officers, directors or Affiliates in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Servicer,
or the Trustee and its respective officers, directors and Affiliates on the one
hand and the Depositor on the other.

     Section 3.30 Advance Facility.

          (a) The Servicer is hereby authorized to enter into a financing or
other facility (any such arrangement, an "Advance Facility"), the documentation
for which complies with Section 3.30(e) below, under which (1) the Servicer
assigns or pledges its rights under this Agreement to be reimbursed for any or
all Advances and/or Servicing Advances to (i) a Person, which may be a
special-purpose bankruptcy-remote entity (an "SPV"), (ii) a Person, which may
simultaneously assign or pledge such rights to an SPV or (iii) a lender (a
"Lender"), which, in the case of any Person or SPV of the type described in
either of the preceding clauses (i) or (ii), may directly or through other
assignees and/or

                                       87

<PAGE>

pledgees, assign or pledge such rights to a Person, which may include a trustee
acting on behalf of holders of debt instruments (any such Person or any such
Lender, an "Advance Financing Person"), and/or (2) an Advance Financing Person
agrees to fund all the Advances and/or Servicing Advances required to be made by
the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement. No consent of the Trustee,
Certificateholders or any other party shall be required before the Servicer may
enter into an Advance Facility nor shall the Trustee or the Certificateholders
be a third party beneficiary of any obligation of an Advance Financing Person to
the Servicer. Notwithstanding the existence of any Advance Facility under which
an Advance Financing Person agrees to fund Advances and/or Servicing Advances,
(A) the Servicer (i) shall remain obligated pursuant to this Agreement to make
Advances and/or Servicing Advances pursuant to and as required by this Agreement
and (ii) shall not be relieved of such obligations by virtue of such Advance
Facility and (B) neither the Advance Financing Person nor any Servicer's
Assignee (as hereinafter defined) shall have any right to proceed against or
otherwise contact any Mortgagor for the purpose of collecting any payment that
may be due with respect to any related Mortgage Loan or enforcing any covenant
of such Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan documents.

          (b) If the Servicer enters into an Advance Facility, the Servicer and
the related Advance Financing Person shall deliver to the Trustee at the address
set forth in Section 11.05 hereof a written notice (an "Advance Facility
Notice"), stating (a) the identity of the Advance Financing Person and (b) the
identity of the Person (the "Servicer's Assignee") that will, subject to Section
3.30(c) hereof, have the right to make withdrawals from the Collection Account
pursuant to Section 3.05 hereof to reimburse previously unreimbursed Advances
and/or Servicing Advances ("Advance Reimbursement Amounts"). Advance
Reimbursement Amounts (i) shall consist solely of amounts in respect of Advances
and/or Servicing Advances for which the Servicer would be permitted to reimburse
itself in accordance with Section 3.05 hereof, assuming the Servicer had made
the related Advance(s) and/or Servicing Advance(s) and (ii) shall not consist of
amounts payable to a successor Servicer in accordance with Section 3.05 hereof
to the extent permitted under Section 3.30(e) below.

          (c) Notwithstanding the existence of an Advance Facility, the
Servicer, on behalf of the Advance Financing Person, and the Servicer's
Assignee, shall be entitled to receive reimbursements of Advances and/or
Servicing Advances in accordance with Section 3.05 hereof, which entitlement may
be terminated by the Advance Financing Person pursuant to a written notice to
the Trustee in the manner set forth in Section 11.05 hereof. Upon receipt of
such written notice, the Servicer shall no longer be entitled to receive
reimbursement for any Advance Reimbursement Amounts and the Servicer's Assignee
shall immediately have the right to receive from the Collection Account all
Advance Reimbursement Amounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for the
avoidance of doubt, (i) the Servicer and/or the Servicer's Assignee shall only
be entitled to reimbursement of Advance Reimbursement Amounts hereunder from
withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05 of this
Agreement and shall not otherwise be entitled to make withdrawals of, or
receive, Advance Reimbursement Amounts that shall be deposited in the
Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.04(b) hereof, and (ii) none of the
Trustee or the Certificateholders shall have any right to, or otherwise be
entitled to, receive any Advance Reimbursement Amounts to which the Servicer or
Servicer's Assignee, as applicable, shall be entitled pursuant to Section 3.05
hereof. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Trustee or the
Certificateholders shall have any right to set off against Advance Reimbursement
Amounts hereunder. An Advance Facility may be terminated by the joint written
direction of the Servicer and the related Advance Financing Person. Written
notice of such termination shall be delivered to the Trustee in the manner set
forth in Section 11.05 hereof. The Trustee shall have no duty or liability with
respect to the calculation of any Advance Reimbursement Amount and shall be
entitled to rely without independent investigation on the Advance Facility
Notice and on such Servicer's report of the amount of Advance Reimbursement
Amounts and Servicing Advance Reimbursement Amounts that were included in the
remittance from such Servicer to the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.07. Such
Servicer shall maintain and provide to any successor Servicer a detailed
accounting on a loan-by-loan basis as to amounts advanced

                                       88

<PAGE>

by, pledged or assigned to, and reimbursed to any Advance Financing Person. The
successor Servicer shall be entitled to rely on any such information provided by
the predecessor Servicer, and the successor Servicer shall not be liable for any
errors in such information.

          (d) [Reserved.]

          (e) As between a predecessor Servicer and its Advance Financing
Person, on the one hand, and a successor Servicer and its Advance Financing
Person, if any, on the other hand, Advance Reimbursement Amounts on a
loan-by-loan basis with respect to each Mortgage Loan as to which a Advance
and/or Servicing Advance shall have been made and be outstanding shall be
allocated on a "first-in, first out" basis. In the event the Servicer's Assignee
shall have received some or all of an Advance Reimbursement Amount related to
Advances and/or Servicing Advances that were made by a Person other than such
predecessor Servicer or its related Advance Financing Person in error, then such
Servicer's Assignee shall be required to remit any portion of such Advance
Reimbursement Amount to each Person entitled to such portion of such Advance
Reimbursement Amount. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Servicer shall remain entitled to be reimbursed by the Advance Financing Person
for all Advances and/or Servicing Advances funded by the Servicer to the extent
the related Advance Reimbursement Amounts have not been assigned or pledged to
such Advance Financing Person or Servicer's Assignee.

          (f) For purposes of any certification of a Servicing Officer of the
Servicer made pursuant to Section 4.07(d) , any Nonrecoverable Advance referred
to therein may have been made by such Servicer or any predecessor Servicer. In
making its determination that any Advance or Servicing Advance theretofore made
has become a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Servicer shall apply the same criteria
in making such determination regardless of whether such Advance or Servicing
Advance shall have been made by the Servicer or any predecessor Servicer.

          (g) The Trustee shall not, as a result of the existence of any Advance
Facility, have any additional responsibility to track or monitor Advance
Reimbursement Amounts or any Advance Facility, and, except as expressly provided
in Section 3.30(c) above, is not and shall not be obligated to make any payment
with respect to any Advance Reimbursement Amount. The Servicer hereby
indemnifies the Trustee, the Trust Fund and any successor Servicer, as
applicable, from and against any claims, losses, liabilities or damages
resulting from any claim by the related Advancing Person, except to the extent
that such claim, loss, liability or damage resulted from or arose out of
negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee or the
successor Servicer, or failure by the successor Servicer or the Trustee to remit
funds as required by this Agreement or the commission of an act or omission to
act by the successor Servicer or the Trustee, and the passage of any applicable
cure or grace period, such that a Servicer Event of Termination under this
Agreement occurs or such entity is subject to termination for cause under this
Agreement.

          (h) Any amendment to this Section 3.30 or to any other provision of
this Agreement that may be necessary or appropriate to effect the terms of an
Advance Facility as described generally in this Section 3.30, including
amendments to add provisions relating to a successor Servicer, may be entered
into by the Trustee, the Depositor and the Servicer without the consent of any
Certificateholder, provided such amendment complies with Section 11.01 hereof.
All reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) of each party
hereto of any such amendment shall be borne solely by the Servicer. The parties
hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that: (a) the Advances and/or Servicing
Advances financed by and/or pledged to an Advance Financing Person under any
Advance Facility are obligations owed to the Servicer payable only from the cash
flows and proceeds received under this Agreement for reimbursement of Advances
and/or Servicing Advances only to the extent provided herein, and the Trustee
and the Trust are not, as a result of the existence of any Advance Facility,
obligated or

                                       89

<PAGE>

liable to repay any Advances and/or Servicing Advances financed by the Advance
Financing Person; (b) the Servicer will be responsible for remitting to the
Advance Financing Person the applicable amounts collected by it as reimbursement
for Advances and/or Servicing Advances funded by the Advance Financing Person,
subject to the provisions of this Agreement; and (c) the Trustee shall not have
any responsibility to track or monitor the administration of the financing
arrangement between the Servicer and any Advance Financing Person.

indemnification paid as a result of a prepayment charge being unenforceable in

Swap Termination Payment;

               (xxxvii) to the Class CE Certificates, the Class CE Distributable

          (c) [Reserved].

          (d) Any amounts distributed to the Certificates in respect of Excess
Interest (other than from proceeds of the Swap Agreement) shall first be deemed
distributed by REMIC 2 as a distribution in respect of the REMIC 2 CE Interest,
to REMIC CE and distributed thereby as a distribution to the REMIC CE CE
Interest, and then distributed to such Certificates as payments on notional
principal contracts. The Trustee shall account for the rights to receive Excess
Interest as rights in a limited recourse notional principal contract written by
the Holders of the Class CE Certificates. For federal information reporting
purposes, such rights shall be assigned a value of zero.

          (e) Any amounts distributed to the Class B-1 Certificates pursuant to
Section 4.01 or this Section 4.02, other than payments in respect of Excess
Interest, shall be deemed distributed by REMIC 2 to REMIC B-1 in respect of the

          (g) [Reserved].

          (h) [Reserved].

          (i) On the Closing Date, the Supplemental Interest Trust shall be
established and maintained pursuant to this Agreement, as a separate trust, the
corpus of which shall be held by the Trustee for the benefit of the holders of
the Class A and Class M Certificates as a segregated subtrust of the Trust Fund.
The Supplemental Interest Trust shall contain the Swap Account, which shall be
an Eligible Account, and funds deposited therein shall be held separate and
apart from, and shall not be commingled with, any other moneys, including,
without limitation, other moneys of the Trustee held pursuant to this Agreement.
In no event shall any funds deposited in the Swap Account be credited to or

                                       97

<PAGE>

made available to any other account of the Trust Fund. The records of the
Trustee shall at all times reflect that the Supplemental Interest Trust is a
subtrust of the Trust Fund, the assets of which are segregated from other assets
of the Trust Fund.

     The Trustee shall enforce all of the rights of the Supplemental Interest
Trust and exercise any remedies under the Swap Agreement. In the event the Swap
Agreement is terminated as a result of the designation by either party thereto
of an Early Termination Date (as defined in the Swap Agreement), [the Depositor
shall] find a replacement counterparty to enter into a replacement swap
agreement utilizing the amounts of the net Swap Termination Payments received.

     For each Distribution Date, through and including the Distribution Date in
May 2011, the Trustee shall, based on the Significance Estimate (which shall be
provided to the Trustee by the Depositor within five Business Days prior to the
Distribution Date), calculate the Significance Percentage of the Swap Agreement.
If on any such Distribution Date, the Significance Percentage is equal to or
greater than 9%, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Depositor and the
Depositor, on behalf of the Trustee, shall obtain the financial information
required to be delivered by the Swap Counterparty pursuant to the terms of the
Swap Agreement. If, on any succeeding Distribution Date through and including
the Distribution Date in May 2011, the Significance Percentage is equal to or
greater than 10%, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Depositor and the
Depositor shall, within five Business Days of such Distribution Date, deliver to
the Trustee the financial information provided to it by the Swap Counterparty
for inclusion in the Form 10-D relating to such Distribution Date.

     Any Swap Termination Payment received by the Trustee shall be deposited in
the Swap Account and shall be used to make any upfront payment required under a
replacement swap agreement and any upfront payment received from the
counterparty to a replacement swap agreement shall be used to pay any Swap
Termination Payment owed to the Swap Counterparty.

     Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in the event that a replacement
swap agreement cannot be obtained within 30 days after receipt by the Trustee of
the Swap Termination Payment paid by the terminated Swap Counterparty, the
Trustee shall deposit such Swap Termination Payment into a separate, segregated
non-interest bearing subtrust established by the Trustee and the Trustee shall,
on each Distribution Date following receipt of such Swap Termination Payment,
withdraw from such subtrust, an amount equal to the Net Swap Payment, if any,
that would have been paid to the Supplemental Interest Trust by the original
Swap Counterparty (computed in accordance with the original Swap Agreement) and
distribute such amount in accordance with Section 4.02(i) of this Agreement. Any
such subtrust shall not be an asset of any REMIC. Any amounts remaining in such
subtrust shall be distributed to the holders of the Class CE Certificates on the
Distribution Date following the earlier of (i) the termination of the Trust Fund
pursuant to Section 10.01 and (ii) the Distribution Date in May 2011.

     On any Distribution Date, any Swap Termination Payments or Net Swap
Payments owed to the Swap Counterparty will be paid out of, or any Net Swap
Payments or Swap Termination Payments received from the Swap Counterparty will
be deposited into, the Swap Account. The Supplemental Interest Trust will not be
an asset of any REMIC. Funds in the Swap Account within the Supplemental
Interest Trust shall be distributed in the following order of priority by the
Trustee:

               (i) to the Swap Counterparty, all Net Swap Payments, if any, owed
to the Swap Counterparty for such Distribution Date;

               (ii) to the Swap Counterparty, any Swap Termination Payment,
other than a Defaulted Swap Termination Payment, if any, owed to the Swap
Counterparty;

                                       98

<PAGE>

              (iii) to each class of the Class A Certificates, on a pro rata
basis, any Accrued Certificate Interest with respect to such class to the extent
unpaid pursuant to Section 4.01 and Section 4.02(b);

               (iv) to each class of the Class A Certificates, on a pro rata
basis, any Interest Carry Forward Amount with respect to such class to the

               (v) sequentially, to the Class M-1 Certificates on a pro rata
basis, the Class M-2 Certificates on a pro rata basis, the Class M-3
Certificates on a pro rata basis, the Class M-4 Certificates on a pro rata
basis, the Class M-5 Certificates on a pro rata basis and the Class M-6
Certificates on a pro rata basis, in that order, any Accrued Certificate
Interest for such class to the extent unpaid pursuant to Section 4.01 and
Section 4.02(b);

               (vi) sequentially, to the Class M-1 Certificates on a pro rata
basis, the Class M-2 Certificates on a pro rata basis, the Class M-3
Certificates on a pro rata basis, the Class M-4 Certificates on a pro rata
basis, the Class M-5 Certificates on a pro rata basis and the Class M-6
Certificates on a pro rata basis, in that order, any Interest Carry Forward with
respect to such class to the extent unpaid pursuant to Section 4.01 and Section
4.02(b);

               (vii) to the Class A, Class M and Class B Certificates, to pay
principal as described and in the same manner and order of priority as set forth
in Section 4.02(a) in order to maintain the Targeted Overcollateralization
Amount, and after giving effect to distributions from Principal Distribution
Amount for each such Class;

               (viii) sequentially, to each Class of the Class M-1, Class M-2,
Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5 and Class M-6 Certificates, in that order, any
remaining Unpaid Realized Loss Amount for such Distribution Date;

               (ix) to the Class A, on a pro rata basis, any Net WAC Carryover
Amount to the extent not paid pursuant to Section 4.02(b);

               (x) sequentially, to the Class M-1 Certificates on a pro rata
basis, the Class M-2 Certificates on a pro rata basis, the Class M-3
Certificates on a pro rata basis, the Class M-4 Certificates on a pro rata
basis, the Class M-5 Certificates on a pro rata basis, and the Class M-6
Certificates on a pro rata basis, any Net WAC Carryover Amount to the extent not
paid pursuant to Section 4.02(b);

               (xi) to the Swap Counterparty, any Defaulted Swap Termination
Payment owed to the Swap Counterparty to the extent not already paid; and

               (xii) to the Class CE Certificates any remaining amount.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the sum of all cumulative amounts
distributed pursuant to clauses (vii) and (viii) above shall not exceed the
cumulative Realized Losses incurred. Upon termination of the Trust Fund, any
amounts remaining in the Swap Account within the Supplemental Interest Trust
shall be distributed pursuant to the priorities set forth in this Section
4.02(i).

     With respect to the failure of the Swap Counterparty to perform any of its
obligations under the Swap Agreement, the breach by the Swap Counterparty of any
of its representations and warranties made

                                       99

pursuant to the Swap Agreement, or the termination of the Swap Agreement, the
Trustee shall send any notices and make any demands required hereunder.

     Section 4.03 Allocation of Losses.

     Realized Losses shall be allocated first against any Initial
Overcollateralization Amount remaining and second to the Subsequent
Overcollateralization Amount, until the Overcollateralization Amount has been
reduced to zero. If, after giving effect to the distribution of the Principal
Distribution Amount on any Distribution Date the aggregate Certificate Principal
Balance of the Class A, Class M and Class B Certificates exceeds the Pool
Balance as of the end of the related Collection Period, such excess will be
allocated against the Class B-4, Class B-3, Class B-2, Class B-1, Class M-6,
Class M-5, Class M-4, Class M-3, Class M-2 and Class M-1 Certificates, in that
order, until the respective Certificate Principal Balances thereof are reduced
to zero.

     Special Hazard Losses will be allocated as described above, provided that
if the cumulative amount of such losses, as of any date of determination,
exceeds the greatest of (i) 1.0% of the Pool Balance as of the Cut-off Date,
(ii) two times the amount of the principal balance of the largest Mortgage Loan
as of the date of determination and (iii) an amount equal to the aggregate
principal balances of the Mortgage Loans in the largest zip-code concentration
in the State of California as of the date of determination, such losses will be
allocated among the Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5, Class
M-6, Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3 and Class B-4 Certificates, pro rata, based
on their respective Certificate Principal Balances. For the avoidance of doubt,
any losses allocated as Special Hazard Losses shall not be reimbursed pursuant
to Section 4.02(b) as Realized Loss Amortization Amounts.

     Section 4.04 Method of Distribution.

     The Trustee shall make distributions in respect of a Distribution Date to
each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date (other than as
provided in Section 10.01 respecting the final distribution), in the case of
Certificateholders of the Certificates, by wire transfer in immediately
available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person
shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior
to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and is the
registered owner of such Certificates the aggregate initial Certificate
Principal Balance or Notional Amount of which is in excess of $5,000,000, or by
check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto,
as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register, provided that
the Trustee may deduct a reasonable wire transfer fee from any payment made by
wire transfer. Distributions among Certificateholders shall be made in
proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced by the Certificates held by
such Certificateholders.

     Section 4.05 Distributions on Book-Entry Certificates.

     Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be paid to
the Depository, which shall credit the amount of such distribution to the
accounts of its Depository Participants in accordance with its normal
procedures. Each Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such
distribution to the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect
participating brokerage firm (a "brokerage firm" or "indirect participating
firm") for which it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for
disbursing funds to the Certificate Owners that it represents. All such credits
and disbursements with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate are to be made by the
Depository and the Depository Participants in accordance with the provisions of
the Certificates. None of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Servicer or the Seller
shall have any responsibility therefor except as otherwise provided by
applicable law.

          (b) The amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer for any

aggregate amount of Monthly Payments (net of the related Servicing Fee), due
during the related Collection Period in respect of the Mortgage Loans, which
Monthly Payments were delinquent on a contractual basis as of the close of

Distribution Date. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the Monthly Payment
on each Balloon Mortgage Loan with a delinquent Balloon Payment is equal to the
assumed monthly payment that would have been due on the related Due Date based

The Servicer shall not be required to make any Advances with respect to the
principal portion of the Monthly Payments that would have been due on the
related Due Date with respect to Second Lien Mortgage Loans and shall not make
any Advances with respect to the principal portion of the Monthly Payments that
would have been due on the related Due Date with respect to REO Properties. The
Servicer will not advance shortfalls in interest collections due to bankruptcy
proceedings or the application of the Relief Act.

     On or before the close of business New York time on the Servicer Remittance
Date, the Servicer shall remit in immediately available funds to the Trustee for
deposit in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the aggregate amount of
Advances, if any, to be made in respect of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties
for the related Distribution Date either (i) from its own funds or (ii) from the
Collection Account, to the extent of funds held therein for future distribution
(in which case it will cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of
the Collection Account that amounts held for future distribution have been, as
permitted by this Section 4.07, used by the Servicer in discharge of any such
Advance) or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the
total amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer with respect to the Mortgage
Loans and REO Properties. In addition, the Servicer shall have the right to
reimburse itself for any such Advance from amounts held from time to time in the
Collection Account to the extent such amounts are not then required to be
distributed. Any amounts held for future distribution and so used shall be
appropriately reflected in the Servicer's records and replaced by the Servicer
by deposit in the Collection Account on or before any future Servicer Remittance
Date to the extent that the Available Funds for the related Distribution Date
(determined without regard to Advances to be made on the Servicer Remittance
Date) shall be less than the total amount that would be distributed to the
Classes of Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01 and 4.02 on such
Distribution Date if such amounts held for future distributions had not been so
used to make Advances. The Servicer may reimburse itself from any amounts in the
Collection Account for any prior Advances or Servicing Advances that have not
been reimbursed at the time the Mortgage Loan is modified. The Trustee will
provide notice to the Servicer by telecopy by the close of business on any
Servicer Remittance Date in the event that the amount remitted by the Servicer
to the Trustee on such date is less than the Advances required to be made by the
Servicer for the related Distribution Date, as set forth in the related
Remittance Report.

          (c) The obligation of the Servicer to make such Advances is mandatory,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but subject to (d) below,
and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan or REO Property, shall continue until the
earlier of such time as the Trust acquires title to

                                       104

<PAGE>

the related Mortgaged Property or such Mortgage Loan is paid in full by the
Mortgagor or disposed of by the Trust, or until the recovery of all Liquidation
Proceeds thereon.

          (d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Advance or
Servicing Advance shall be required to be made hereunder by the Servicer if such
Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. The determination
by the Servicer that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed
Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be evidenced
by an Officers' Certificate of the Servicer delivered to the Depositor and the
Trustee.

                                   ARTICLE V

                                THE CERTIFICATES

     Section 5.01 The Certificates.

     Each of the Class A, Class M, Class B, Class P, Class CE, Class R and Class
R-X Certificates shall be substantially in the forms annexed hereto as exhibits,
and shall, on original issue, be executed by the Trustee and authenticated and
delivered by the Certificate Registrar to or upon the receipt of a Written Order
to Authenticate from the Depositor concurrently with the sale and assignment to
the Trustee of the Trust Fund. Each Class of the Class A, Class M and Class B
Certificates shall be initially evidenced by one or more Certificates
representing a Percentage Interest with a minimum dollar (or notional amount)
denomination of $25,000 and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The
Class P, Class CE and Class R Certificates are issuable only in minimum
Percentage Interests of 10%. The Class R-X Certificates are issuable only in
minimum Percentage Interests of 50%.

     The Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or
facsimile signature on behalf of the Trustee by a Responsible Officer.
Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were,
at the time when such signatures were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of
the Trustee shall bind the Trust, notwithstanding that such individuals or any
of them have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery
of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of such
Certificate. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this
Agreement or be valid for any purpose, unless such Certificate shall have been
manually authenticated by the Certificate Registrar substantially in the form
provided for herein, and such authentication upon any Certificate shall be
conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date
of their authentication. Subject to Section 5.02(c), the Class A, Class M and
Class B Certificates shall be Book-Entry Certificates. The Class P, Class CE,
Class R and Class R-X Certificates shall not be Book-Entry Certificates but
shall be issued in fully registered certificate form.

     The Class B-1, B-2, Class B-3 and Class B-4 Certificates sold in offshore
transactions in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form
of one or more permanent global certificates in definitive, fully registered
form without interest coupons with the applicable legends set forth in Exhibits
B-1, B-2, B-3 and B-4 hereto added to the forms of such Certificates (each, a
"Book-Entry Regulation S Global Security"), which shall be deposited on behalf
of the Holders of such Certificates represented thereby with the Certificate
Registrar, as custodian for DTC and registered in the name of a nominee of DTC,
duly executed and authenticated by the Certificate Registrar as hereinafter
provided. The aggregate principal amounts of the Book-Entry Regulation S Global
Securities may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made
on the records of the Certificate Registrar or DTC or its nominee, as the case
may be, as hereinafter provided.

     Section 5.02 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.

          (a) The Certificate Registrar shall cause to be kept at the Corporate
Trust Office of the Trustee a Certificate Register 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 of
Certificates as herein provided. The Trustee shall initially serve as
Certificate Registrar for the purpose of registering Certificates and transfers
and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. The Trustee as Certificate
Registrar shall be subject to the same standards of care, limitations on
liability and rights to indemnity as the Trustee, and the provisions of Sections
8.01, 8.02, 8.03, 8.04, 8.05, 8.14 and 8.15 shall apply to the Certificate
Registrar to the same extent as they apply to the Trustee. Any Certificate
Registrar appointed in accordance with this Section 5.02(a) may at any time
resign by giving at least 30 days' advance written notice of resignation to the
Trustee, the Servicer and the Depositor, such resignation to become effective
upon appointment of a successor Certificate Registrar.

     Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at any
office or agency of the Certificate Registrar maintained for such purpose
pursuant to the foregoing paragraph and, in the case of a Residual Certificate,
upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, the Trustee on behalf of
the Trust shall execute and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and
deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more
new Certificates of the same aggregate Percentage Interest.

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

          (b) Upon original issuance, the Book-Entry Certificates shall be
issued in the form of one or more typewritten certificates, to be delivered to
the Depository, the initial Depository, by, or on behalf of, the Depositor; or
to, and deposited with the Certificate Custodian, on behalf of the Depository,
if directed to do so pursuant to instructions from the Depository. Except as
provided in paragraph (c) below, the Book-Entry Certificates shall at all times
remain registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and at all times:
(i) registration of such Certificates may not be transferred by the Trustee
except to another Depository; (ii) the Depository shall maintain book-entry
records with respect to the Certificate Owners and with respect to ownership and
transfers of such Certificates; (iii) ownership and transfers of registration of
such Certificates on the books of the Depository shall be governed by applicable
rules established by the Depository; (iv) the Depository may collect its usual
and customary fees, charges and expenses from its Depository Participants; (v)
the Trustee shall for all purposes deal with the Depository as representative of
the Certificate Owners of the Certificates for purposes of exercising the rights
of Holders under this Agreement, and requests and directions for and votes of
such representative shall not be deemed to be inconsistent if they are made with
respect to different Certificate Owners; (vi) the Trustee may rely and shall be
fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depository with
respect to its Depository Participants and furnished by the Depository
Participants with respect to indirect participating firms and Persons shown on
the books of such indirect participating firms as direct or indirect Certificate
Owners; and (vii) the direct participants of the Depository shall have no rights
under this Agreement under or with respect to any of the Certificates held on
their behalf by the Depository, and the Depository may be treated by the Trustee
and their agents, employees, officers and directors as the absolute owner of the
Certificates for all purposes whatsoever.

                                       106

<PAGE>

     All transfers by Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates shall be
made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository Participant
or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owners. Each Depository
Participant shall only transfer Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners
that it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in
accordance with the Depository's normal procedures. The parties hereto are
hereby authorized to execute a Letter of Representations with the Depository or
take such other action as may be necessary or desirable to register a Book-Entry
Certificate to the Depository. In the event of any conflict between the terms of
any such Letter of Representation and this Agreement, the terms of this
Agreement shall control.

          (c) If (i)(x) the Depository or the Depositor advises the Trustee in
writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to discharge properly
its responsibilities as Depository and (y) the Depositor is unable to locate a
qualified successor, (ii) the Depositor, at its sole option elects to terminate
the book-entry system through the Depository or (iii) after the occurrence of a
Servicer Event of Termination, the Certificate Owners of each Class of
Book-Entry Certificates representing Percentage Interests of such Classes
aggregating not less than 51% advises the Trustee and Depository through the
Financial Intermediaries and the Depository Participants in writing that the
continuation of a book-entry system through the Depository to the exclusion of
definitive, fully registered certificates (the "Definitive Certificates") to
Certificate Owners is no longer in the best interests of the Certificate Owners.
Upon surrender to the Certificate Registrar of the Book-Entry Certificates by
the Depository, accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for
registration, the Trustee shall, at the Depositor's expense, in the case of (ii)
above, or the Seller's expense, in the case of (i) and (iii) above, execute on
behalf of the Trust and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate the
Definitive Certificates. Neither the Depositor nor the 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 Certificates, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Servicer,
any Paying Agent and the Depositor shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive
Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.

          (d) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Private
Certificate shall be made unless such disposition is exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933
Act"), and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with
the 1933 Act and laws. In the event of any such transfer, other than the initial
transfer of the Private Certificates by the Depositor, (i) unless such transfer
is made in reliance upon Rule 144A (as evidenced by the investment letter
delivered to the Certificate Registrar, in substantially the form attached
hereto as Exhibit J) under the 1933 Act, the Certificate Registrar and the
Depositor may require a written Opinion of Counsel (which may be in-house
counsel) acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Certificate Registrar and the Depositor that such transfer may be made pursuant
to an exemption, describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor,
from the 1933 Act or is being made pursuant to the 1933 Act, which Opinion of
Counsel shall not be an expense of the Certificate Registrar, the Trustee or the
Depositor or (ii) the Certificate Registrar shall require the transferor to
execute a transferor certificate (in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit L) and the transferee to execute an investment letter (in substantially
the form attached hereto as Exhibit J) acceptable to and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar
certifying to the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar the facts surrounding
such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of the
Certificate Registrar or the Depositor. The Holder of a Private Certificate
desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the
Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor against any liability that
may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with
such federal and state laws.

     By acceptance of a Regulation S Global Security, whether upon original
issuance or subsequent transfer, each Holder of such a Certificate acknowledges
the restrictions on the transfer of such Certificate set forth thereon and
agrees that it will only transfer such a Certificate as provided herein. In
addition,

                                       107

<PAGE>

each Holder of a Regulation S Global Security shall be deemed to have
represented and warranted to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate
Registrar and any of their respective successors that: (i) such Person is not a
"U.S. person" within the meaning of Regulation S and was, at the time the buy
order was originated, outside the United States and (ii) such Person understands
that such Certificates have not been registered under the Securities Act and
that (x) until the expiration of the 40-day distribution compliance period
(within the meaning of Regulation S), no offer, sale, pledge or other transfer
of such Certificates or any interest therein shall be made in the United States
or to or for the account or benefit of a U.S. person (each as defined in
Regulation S), (y) if in the future it decides to offer, resell, pledge or
otherwise transfer such Certificates, such Certificates may be offered, resold,
pledged or otherwise transferred only (A) to a person which the seller
reasonably believes is a "qualified institutional buyer" (a "QIB") as defined in
Rule 144A under the Securities Act, that is purchasing such Certificates for its
own account or for the account of a qualified institutional buyer to which
notice is given that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A or (B)
in an offshore transaction (as defined in Regulation S) in compliance with the
provisions of Regulation S, in each case in compliance with the requirements of
this Agreement; and it will notify such transferee of the transfer restrictions
specified in this Section.

     The beneficial ownership (as determined for federal income tax purposes) of
a Class P or Class CE Certificate shall not be transferred to a non-United
States Person unless the Certificate Registrar has received, in the manner
required by applicable Treasury regulations (and with all required attachments,
including, where the non-United States Person is providing a Form W-8IMY, Forms
W-8BEN, W-8EXP or W-9 from all persons treated as beneficially owning an
interest in the Class CE or Class P Certificate through such non-U.S. Person
either directly, through an intermediary or through another entity that is
treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes), a properly
completed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, Form W-8BEN, Form W-8EXP or Form
W-8ECI from such non-United States Person. No Class CE Certificate may be
pledged or used as collateral for any obligation if it would cause any portion
of the Trust Fund to be treated as a taxable mortgage pool under Section 7701(i)
of the Code.

     No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is a Class R-X or Class
R Certificate shall be registered unless the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar shall have received a representation from the transferee of such
Certificate, acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee
and the Certificate Registrar (such requirement is satisfied only by the
Certificate Registrar's receipt of a representation letter from the transferee
substantially in the form of Exhibit K hereto), to the effect that such
transferee is not an employee benefit plan or arrangement subject to Title I of
ERISA, a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a plan subject to any
state, local, federal, non-U.S. or other law substantively similar to the
foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code ("Similar Law") (collectively, a
"Plan"), and is not directly or indirectly acquiring the Certificate for, on
behalf of or with any assets of any such Plan.

     No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate (other than a Class R-X or
Class R Certificate) shall be registered unless the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar shall have received (i) a representation letter from the transferee of
such Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto, to the effect
that such transferee is not a Plan and is not directly or indirectly acquiring
the Certificate for, on behalf of or with any assets of any such Plan, (ii) if
the Certificate has been the subject of an ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, a
representation letter from the transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit I
hereto, that the transferee is an insurance company that is acquiring the
Certificate with assets of an "insurance company general account" as defined in
Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE") 95-60 and the
acquisition and holding of the Certificate are covered and exempt under Sections
I and III of PTCE 95-60, or (iii) solely in the case of a Definitive
Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar, and upon which the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar
shall be entitled to rely, to the effect that the acquisition and holding of
such Certificate by the transferee will not result in a nonexempt prohibited
transaction under Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of

                                       108

<PAGE>

the Code, or a violation of Similar Law, and will not subject the Certificate
Registrar, the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee to any obligation in
addition to those undertaken by such entities in this Agreement, which opinion
of counsel shall not be an expense of the Certificate Registrar, the Depositor,
the Servicer or the Trustee. The representations in clause (i) or (ii) of the
preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been made to the Certificate
Registrar and the Trustee by the Certificate Owner's acceptance of the
beneficial interest in any such class of ERISA-Restricted Certificates, unless
the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall have received from the
transferee an alternative representation acceptable in form and substance to the
Trustee and the Certificate Registrar.

     Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, any purported
transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate to or on behalf of a Plan without
the delivery to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar of a representation or
an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar
as described above shall be void and of no effect. None of the Certificate
Registrar, the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee shall be under any
liability to any Person for any registration or transfer of any ERISA-Restricted
Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 5.02(d) nor shall the
Paying Agent be under any liability for making any payments due on such
ERISA-Restricted Certificate to the holder thereof or taking any other action
with respect to such holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as
the transfer was registered by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with the
foregoing requirements. The Certificate Registrar, Depositor, Servicer, Paying
Agent and/or Trustee shall be entitled, but not obligated, to recover from any
holder of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that was in fact a Plan and that held
such ERISA-Restricted Certificate in violation of this Section 5.02(d) all
payments made on such ERISA-Restricted Certificate at and after the time it
commenced such holding. Any such payments so recovered shall be paid and
delivered to the last preceding holder of such ERISA-Restricted Certificate that
is not a Plan.

     Until the termination of the Swap Agreement, each Person who has or who
acquires any Ownership Interest in a Class A Certificate shall be deemed by the
acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have represented that
either (i) such Person is not a Plan or a person acting for, on behalf of or
with any assets of a Plan or (ii) the acquisition and holding of the Class A
Certificate by such Person are eligible for and covered by the exemptive relief
available under at least one of the following: PTCE 84-14, PTCE 90-1, PTCE
91-38, PTCE 95-60 or PTCE 96-23, each as promulgated pursuant to ERISA and as it
may be amended from time to time.

     Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership
Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and to have
irrevocably appointed the Depositor or its designee as its attorney-in-fact to
negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause (v) below and to execute
all instruments of transfer and to do all other things necessary in connection
with any such sale, and the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the following
provisions:

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

               (ii) No Person shall acquire an Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate unless such Ownership Interest is a pro rata undivided interest.

               (iii) In connection with any proposed transfer of any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall as a
condition to registration of the transfer, require delivery to it, in form and
substance satisfactory to it, of each of the following:

                         (A) an affidavit in the form of Exhibit K hereto from
the proposed transferee to the effect that, among other things, such transferee
is a Permitted Transferee and that it is not acquiring its Ownership Interest in
the Residual Certificate that is the subject of the proposed transfer as a
nominee, trustee or agent for any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee; and

                                       109

<PAGE>

                         (B) a covenant of the proposed transferee to the effect
that the proposed transferee agrees to be bound by and to abide by the transfer
restrictions applicable to the Residual Certificates.

               (iv) Any attempted or purported transfer of any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this
Section shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the
purported transferee. If any purported transferee shall, in violation of the
provisions of this Section, become a Holder of a Residual Certificate, then the
prior Holder of such Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee shall,
upon discovery that the registration of transfer of such Residual Certificate
was not in fact permitted by this Section, be restored to all rights as Holder
thereof retroactive to the date of registration of transfer of such Residual
Certificate. The Certificate Registrar shall be under no liability to any Person
for any registration of transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not
permitted by this Section or for making any distributions due on such Residual
Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to
such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the Certificate
Registrar received the documents specified in clause (iii). The Trustee shall be
entitled to recover from any Holder of a Residual Certificate that was in fact
not a Permitted Transferee at the time such distributions were made all
distributions made on such Residual Certificate. Any such distributions so
recovered by the Trustee shall be distributed and delivered by the Trustee to
the prior Holder of such Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee.

               (v) If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in
this Section, then the Certificate Registrar shall have the right but not the
obligation, without notice to the Holder of such Residual Certificate or any
other Person having an Ownership Interest therein, to notify the Depositor to
arrange for the sale of such Residual Certificate. The proceeds of such sale,
net of commissions (which may include commissions payable to the Depositor or
its affiliates in connection with such sale), expenses and taxes due, if any,
will be remitted by the Trustee to the previous Holder of such Residual
Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee, except that in the event that the
Trustee determines that the Holder of such Residual Certificate may be liable
for any amount due under this Section or any other provisions of this Agreement,
the Trustee may withhold a corresponding amount from such remittance as security
for such claim. The terms and conditions of any sale under this clause (v) shall
be determined in the sole discretion of the Trustee and it shall not be liable
to any Person having an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate as a result
of its exercise of such discretion.

               (vi) If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in
this Section, then the Trustee will provide to the Internal Revenue Service, and
to the persons specified in Sections 860E(e)(3) and (6) of the Code, information
needed to compute the tax imposed under Section 860E(e)(5) of the Code on
transfers of residual interests to disqualified organizations. The Trustee shall
be entitled to reasonable compensation for providing such information from the
person to whom it is provided.

The foregoing provisions of this Section shall cease to apply to transfers
occurring on or after the date on which there shall have been delivered to the
Certificate Registrar, in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate
Registrar, (i) written notification from each Rating Agency that the removal of
the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Section will not cause such
Rating Agency to downgrade its rating of the Certificates and (ii) an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such removal will not cause any REMIC hereunder to
fail to qualify as a REMIC.

          (e) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer
or exchange of Certificates of any Class, but the Certificate Registrar may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover

                                       110

<PAGE>

any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any
transfer or exchange of Certificates.

     All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall
be cancelled by the Certificate Registrar and disposed of pursuant to its
standard procedures.

     Section 5.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.

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

     Section 5.04 Persons Deemed Owners.

     The Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any
Paying Agent and any agent of the Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate
Registrar, any Paying Agent or the Trustee may treat the Person, including a
Depository, in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such
Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 4.01
and 4.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Servicer, the
Trust, the Trustee, any Paying Agent nor any agent of any of them shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

     Section 5.05 Appointment of Paying Agent.

     The Paying Agent shall make distributions to Certificateholders from the
Distribution Account pursuant to Section 4.01 and 4.02 and shall report the
amounts of such distributions to the Trustee. The duties of the Paying Agent may
include the obligation (i) to withdraw funds from the Collection Account
pursuant to Section 3.05 and for the purpose of making the distributions
referred to above and (ii) to distribute statements and provide information to
Certificateholders as required hereunder. The Paying Agent hereunder shall at
all times be an entity duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of
the United States of America or any state thereof, authorized under such laws to
exercise corporate trust powers and subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authorities. The Paying Agent shall initially be the Trustee.
The Trustee may appoint a successor to act as Paying Agent, which appointment
shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the Rating Agencies. The
Trustee as Paying Agent shall be subject to the same standards of care,
limitations on liability and rights to indemnity as the Trustee, and the
provisions of Sections 8.01, 8.02, 8.03, 8.04, 8.05, 8.14 and 8.15 shall apply
to the Paying Agent to the same extent as they apply to the Trustee. Any Paying
Agent appointed in accordance with this Section 5.05 may at any time resign by
giving at least 30 days' advance written notice of resignation to the Trustee,
the Servicer and the Depositor, such resignation to become effective upon
appointment of a successor Paying Agent.

                   THE SELLER, THE SERVICER AND THE DEPOSITOR

     Section 6.01 Liability of the Seller, the Servicer and the Depositor.

     The Seller and the Servicer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to
the extent of the obligations specifically imposed upon and undertaken by the
Seller or Servicer, as the case may be, herein. The Depositor shall be liable in
accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed
upon and undertaken by the Depositor.

     Section 6.02 Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations
of, the Seller, the Servicer or the Depositor.

     Any entity into which the Seller, the Servicer or the Depositor may be
merged or consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Seller, the Servicer or the Depositor shall be a
party, or any corporation succeeding to the business of the Seller, the Servicer
or the Depositor, shall be the successor of the Seller, the Servicer or the
Depositor, as the case may be, hereunder, without the execution or filing of any
paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor
Servicer shall satisfy all the requirements of Section 7.02 with respect to the
qualifications of a successor Servicer.

     Section 6.03 Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others.

     Neither the Servicer nor any of the directors or officers or employees or
agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trust or the
Certificateholders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any
action by the Servicer in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors
in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the
Servicer or any such Person against any liability which would otherwise be
imposed by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in
the performance of duties of the Servicer or by reason of its reckless disregard
of its obligations and duties of the Servicer hereunder; provided, further, that
this provision shall not be construed to entitle the Servicer to indemnity in
the event that amounts advanced by the Servicer to retire any senior lien exceed
Liquidation Proceeds (in excess of related liquidation expenses) realized with
respect to the related Mortgage Loan. The Servicer and any director or officer
or employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of
any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting
any matters arising hereunder. The Servicer and any director or officer or
employee or agent of the Servicer shall be indemnified by the Trust and held
harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any
legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any
loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad
faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of its
reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. The Servicer may
undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of
this Agreement, and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the
interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the reasonable
legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom
shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust and the Servicer shall be
entitled to pay such expenses from the proceeds of the Trust or to be reimbursed
therefor pursuant to Section 3.05 upon presentation to the Trustee of
documentation of such expenses, costs and liabilities. The Servicer's right to
indemnity or reimbursement pursuant to this Section shall survive any
resignation or termination of the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.04 or 7.01 with
respect to any losses, expenses, costs or liabilities arising prior to such
resignation or termination (or arising from events that occurred prior to such
resignation or termination). This paragraph shall apply to the Servicer solely
in its capacity as Servicer hereunder and in no other capacities.

     Section 6.04 Servicer Not to Resign.

     Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01 and Section 6.02, the Servicer
shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except (i)
upon determination that the performance of its obligations or duties hereunder
are no longer permissible under applicable law or are in material conflict by
reason of applicable law with any other activities carried on by it or its
subsidiaries or Affiliates, the other activities of the Servicer so causing such
a conflict being of a type and nature carried on by the Servicer or its
subsidiaries or Affiliates at the date of this Agreement or (ii) upon
satisfaction of the following conditions: (a) either (x) the Servicer has
proposed a successor servicer to the Trustee in writing and such proposed
successor servicer is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee or (y) the Servicing
Rights Pledgee has delivered to the Trustee a letter signed by the Servicer
whereunder the Servicer resigns as Servicer under this Agreement pursuant to the
second paragraph of this Section 6.04 or the second paragraph of Section
7.02(a); and (b) each Rating Agency shall have delivered a letter to the Trustee
prior to the appointment of the successor servicer stating that the proposed
appointment of such successor servicer as Servicer hereunder will not result in
the reduction or withdrawal of the then current rating of the Regular
Certificates; or the ratings that are in effect; provided, however, that no such
resignation by the Servicer shall become effective until such successor servicer
or, in the case of (i) above, the Trustee shall have assumed the Servicer's
responsibilities and obligations hereunder or the Trustee shall have designated
a successor servicer in accordance with the second paragraph of this Section
6.04 or with Section 7.02. Any such resignation shall not relieve the Servicer
of responsibility for any of the obligations specified in Sections 7.01 and 7.02
as obligations that survive the resignation or termination of the Servicer. Any
such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer pursuant to clause
(i) above shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered
to the Trustee. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the
Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to
the Trustee.

     The Trustee and the Depositor hereby specifically (i) consent to the pledge
and assignment by the Servicer of all the Servicer's right, title and interest
in, to and under this Agreement to the Servicing Rights Pledgee, for the benefit
of certain lenders, and (ii) provided that no Servicer Event of Termination
exists, agree that upon delivery to the Trustee by the Servicing Rights Pledgee
of a letter signed by the Servicer whereunder the Servicer shall resign as
Servicer under this Agreement, the Trustee shall appoint the Servicing Rights
Pledgee or its designee as successor Servicer, provided that at the time of such
appointment, the Servicing Rights Pledgee or such designee meets the
requirements of a successor Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02(a) and agrees to
be subject to the terms of this Agreement. If, pursuant to any provision hereof,
the duties of the Servicer are transferred to a successor, the entire amount of
the Servicing Fee and other compensation payable to the Servicer pursuant hereto
shall thereafter be payable to such successor.

     Section 6.05 Delegation of Duties.

     In the ordinary course of business, the Servicer at any time may delegate
any of its duties hereunder to any Person, including any of its Affiliates, who
agrees to conduct such duties in accordance with standards comparable to those
set forth in Section 3.01. Such delegation shall not relieve the Servicer of its
liabilities and responsibilities with respect to such duties and shall not
constitute a resignation within the meaning of Section 6.04. At any time that
reporting under the Exchange Act is required, the Servicer shall provide the
Trustee and the Rating Agencies with 30 days prior written notice prior to the
delegation of any of its duties to any Person other than any of the Servicer's
Affiliates or their respective successors and assigns.

     Section 7.01 Servicer Events of Termination.

          (a) If any one of the following events (each, a "Servicer Event of
Termination") shall occur and be continuing:

               (i) (A) The failure by the Servicer to make any required Advance;
or (B) any other failure by the Servicer to deposit in the Collection Account or
Distribution Account any deposit required to be made under the terms of this
Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of one Business Day after the

Servicer by the Trustee or by any Holder of a Regular Certificate evidencing at
least 25% of the Voting Rights; or

               (ii) The failure by the Servicer to make any required Servicing
Advance which failure continues unremedied for a period of 30 days, or the
failure by the Servicer duly to observe or perform, in any material respect, any
other covenants, obligations or agreements of the Servicer as set forth in this
Agreement, which failure continues unremedied for a period of 30 days, after the
date (A) on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be
remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Trustee or by any Holder
of a Regular Certificate evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights or (B)
actual knowledge of such failure by a Servicing Officer of the Servicer; or

               (iii) The entry against the Servicer of a decree or order by a
court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises for
the appointment of a trustee, conservator, receiver or liquidator in any
insolvency, conservatorship, receivership, readjustment of debt, marshalling of
assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding up or
liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order
unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 days; or

               (iv) The Servicer shall voluntarily go into liquidation, consent
to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator or similar person
in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities
or similar proceedings of or relating to the Servicer or of or relating to all
or substantially all of its property; or a decree or order of a court or agency
or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment
of a conservator, receiver, liquidator or similar person in any insolvency,
readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar
proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have
been entered against the Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained
in force undischarged, unbonded or unstayed for a period of 60 days; or the
Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they

                                       114

<PAGE>

become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or
reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or
voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or

               (v) The aggregate amount of cumulative Realized Losses incurred
since the Cut-off Date through the last day of the related Collection Period
divided by the Pool Balance as of the Cut-off Date exceeds the applicable

  June 2011 through May 2012        9.05%
   June 2012 and thereafter        10.20%

          (b) Then, and in each and every such case, so long as a Servicer Event
of Termination shall not have been remedied within the applicable grace period,
(x) with respect solely to clause (i)(A) above, if such Advance is not made by
2:00 P.M., New York time, on the Business Day immediately following the Servicer
Remittance Date, the Trustee may terminate all of the rights and obligations of
the Servicer under this Agreement and the Trustee, or a successor servicer
appointed in accordance with Section 7.02, shall immediately make such Advance
and assume, pursuant to Section 7.02, the duties of a successor Servicer and (y)
in the case of (i)(B), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) above, the Trustee shall, at
the direction of the Holders of each Class of Regular Certificates evidencing
Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 51%, by notice then given in
writing to the Servicer (and to the Trustee if given by Holders of
Certificates), terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer as
servicer under this Agreement. Any such notice to the Servicer shall also be
given to each Rating Agency, the Depositor and the Seller. On or after the
receipt by the Servicer (and by the Trustee if such notice is given by the
Holders) of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under
this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans
or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under
this Section; and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and
empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact
or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or
accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the
purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and
endorsement of each Mortgage Loan and Related Documents or otherwise. The
Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee (or the applicable successor
Servicer) in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the
Servicer hereunder, including, without limitation, the delivery to the Trustee
of all documents and records requested by it to enable it to assume the
Servicer's functions under this Agreement within ten Business Days subsequent to
such notice, the transfer within one Business Day subsequent to such notice to
the Trustee (or the applicable successor Servicer) for the administration by it
of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by the Servicer and to be
deposited by it in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, any REO
account or any Escrow Account or that have been deposited by the Servicer in
such accounts or thereafter received by the Servicer with respect to the
Mortgage Loans or any REO Property received by the Servicer. All reasonable
costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with
transferring the servicing to the successor Servicer and amending this Agreement
to reflect such succession as Servicer pursuant to this Section shall be paid by
the predecessor Servicer (or if the predecessor Servicer is the Trustee, the
initial Servicer) upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs
and expenses.

     Section 7.02 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.

          (a) Within 90 days of the time the Servicer (and the Trustee, if
notice is sent by the Holders) receives a notice of termination pursuant to
Section 7.01 or 6.04, the Trustee (or such other successor Servicer as is
approved in accordance with this Agreement) shall be the successor in all
respects

                                       115

<PAGE>

to the Servicer in its capacity as servicer under this Agreement and the
transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer
by the terms and provisions hereof arising on and after its succession; except
that the Trustee shall not be (i) liable for losses of the predecessor Servicer
pursuant to Section 3.04 or any acts or omissions of the predecessor Servicer
hereunder, (ii) obligated to effectuate repurchases or substitutions of Mortgage
Loans hereunder, (iii) responsible for expenses of the predecessor Servicer
pursuant to Section 2.03, (iv) obligated to make Advances if it is prohibited
from doing so by applicable law, (v) deemed to have made any representations and
warranties of the Servicer hereunder, or (vi) obligated to perform any
obligation of the Servicer under Sections 3.19, 3.20 or 3.29 of this Agreement
with respect to any period of time during which the Trustee was not the
Servicer. As compensation therefor, the Trustee (or such other successor
Servicer) shall be entitled to such compensation as the Servicer would have been
entitled to hereunder if no such notice of termination had been given.
Notwithstanding the above, (i) if the Trustee is unwilling to act as successor
Servicer or (ii) if the Trustee is legally unable so to act, the Trustee shall
appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any
established housing and home finance institution, bank or other mortgage loan or
home equity loan servicer having a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 as the
successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the
responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder; provided,
that the appointment of any such successor Servicer will not result in the
qualification, reduction or withdrawal of the ratings assigned to the
Certificates or the ratings that are in effect by the Rating Agencies as
evidenced by a letter to such effect from the Rating Agencies. Pending
appointment of a successor to the Servicer hereunder, unless the Trustee is
prohibited by law from so acting, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as
hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the
successor shall be entitled to receive compensation out of payments on Mortgage
Loans in an amount equal to the compensation which the Servicer would otherwise
have received pursuant to Section 3.18 (or such other compensation as the
Trustee and such successor shall agree, not to exceed the Servicing Fee). The
successor servicer shall be entitled to withdraw from the Collection Account all
costs and expenses associated with the transfer of the servicing to the
successor servicer. The appointment of a successor servicer shall not affect any
liability of the predecessor Servicer which may have arisen under this Agreement
prior to its termination as Servicer to pay any deductible under an insurance
policy pursuant to Section 3.12 or to indemnify the parties indicated in Section
3.26 pursuant to the terms thereof, nor shall any successor Servicer be liable
for any acts or omissions of the predecessor Servicer or for any breach by such
Servicer of any of its representations or warranties contained herein or in any
related document or agreement. The Trustee and such successor shall take such
action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any
such succession.

     In the event of a Servicer Event of Termination, notwithstanding anything
to the contrary above, the Trustee and the Depositor hereby agree that upon
delivery to the Trustee by the Servicing Rights Pledgee of a letter signed by
the Servicer within ten Business Days of when notification of such event shall
have been provided to the Trustee, whereunder the Servicer shall resign as
Servicer under this Agreement, the Servicing Rights Pledgee or its designee
shall be appointed as successor Servicer (provided that at the time of such
appointment the Servicing Rights Pledgee or such designee meets the requirements
of a successor Servicer set forth above) and the Servicing Rights Pledgee agrees
to be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

          (b) Any successor, including the Trustee, to the Servicer as servicer
shall during the term of its service as servicer continue to service and
administer the Mortgage Loans for the benefit of Certificateholders, and
maintain in force a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and
omissions in the performance of its obligations as Servicer hereunder and a
Fidelity Bond in respect of its officers, employees and agents to the same
extent as the Servicer is so required pursuant to Section 3.12.

     Section 7.03 Waiver of Defaults.

     The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66 2/3% of the Voting
Rights allocated to the Class of Certificates affected by a Servicer Event of
Termination may, on behalf of all Certificateholders, waive any events
permitting removal of the Servicer as servicer pursuant to this Article VII,
provided, however, that such Holders may not waive a default in making a
required distribution on a Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such
Certificate. Upon any waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to
exist and any Servicer Event of Termination arising therefrom shall be deemed to
have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall
extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereto
except to the extent expressly so waived. Notice of any such waiver shall be
given by the Trustee to the Rating Agencies.

     Section 7.04 Notification to Certificateholders.

          (a) On any termination or appointment of a successor the Servicer
pursuant to this Article VII or Section 6.04, the Trustee shall give prompt
written notice thereof to the Certificateholders at their respective addresses
appearing in the Certificate Register and each Rating Agency.

          (b) No later than 60 days after the occurrence of any event which
constitutes or which, with notice or a lapse of time or both, would constitute a
Servicer Event of Termination for five Business Days after a Responsible Officer
of the Trustee becomes aware of the occurrence of such an event, the Trustee
shall transmit by mail to all Certificateholders notice of such occurrence
unless such default or Servicer Event of Termination shall have been waived or
cured. Such notice shall be given to the Rating Agencies promptly after any such
occurrence.

     Section 7.05 Survivability of Servicer Liabilities.

     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon termination of the
Servicer hereunder, any liabilities of the Servicer which accrued prior to such
termination shall survive such termination.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                   THE TRUSTEE

     Section 8.01 Duties of Trustee.

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

     The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements,
opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the
Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they
conform on their face to the requirements of this Agreement to the extent
specified herein; provided, however, that that the Trustee shall not be
responsible for the accuracy or content of any resolution, certificate,
statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument furnished by the
Servicer, the Seller or the

                                       117

<PAGE>

Depositor hereunder. If any such instrument is found not to conform in any
material respect to the requirements of this Agreement, the Trustee shall notify
the Certificateholders of such instrument in the event that the Trustee, after
so requesting, does not receive a satisfactorily corrected instrument.

     No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee
from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or
its own misconduct; provided, however, that:

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

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

               (iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with
the direction of the Majority Certificateholders relating to the time, method
and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee
or exercising or omitting to exercise any trust or power conferred upon the
Trustee under this Agreement; and

               (iv) the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any
failure by the Servicer to comply with the obligations of the Servicer referred
to in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01(a) or any Servicer Event of
Termination unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the applicable
Corporate Trust Office obtains actual knowledge of such failure or the Trustee
receives written notice of such failure from the Servicer or the Majority
Certificateholders. In the absence of such receipt of such notice, the Trustee
may conclusively assume that there is no Servicer Event of Termination.

     The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is
reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, and
none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require
the Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any
of the obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement, except during such
time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the
rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Servicer in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement; provided, however, the Trustee shall not seek
reimbursement or repayment of any of its expenses from the Trust Fund except in
connection with expenses that would constitute "unanticipated expenses" under
Treasury Regulation 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii).

     The Trustee shall not have any duty (A) to see to any recording, filing, or
depositing of this Agreement or any agreement referred to herein or any
financing statement or continuation statement evidencing a security interest, or
to see to the maintenance of any such recording or filing or depositing or to
any rerecording, refiling or redepositing of any thereof, (B) to see to any
insurance or (C) to see to the payment or discharge of any tax, assessment, or
other governmental charge or any lien or encumbrance of

                                       118

<PAGE>

any kind owing with respect to, assessed or levied against, any part of the
Trust Fund other than from funds available in the Distribution Account.

     The Trustee shall have no duty hereunder with respect to any complaint,
claim, demand, notice or other document it may receive or which may be alleged
to have been delivered to or served upon it by the parties as a consequence of
the assignment of any Mortgage Loan hereunder; provided, however, that the
Trustee shall promptly remit to the Servicer upon receipt any such complaint,
claim, demand, notice or other document (i) which is delivered to the Trustee at
its Corporate Trust Office; (ii) of which a Responsible Officer has actual
knowledge and (iii) which contains information sufficient to permit the Trustee
to make a determination that the real property to which such document relates to
is a Mortgaged Property.

     Section 8.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.

          (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:

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

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

               (iii) the Trustee shall not be under any obligation to exercise
any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement, or to institute,
conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto, at the
request, order or direction of the Certificateholders pursuant to the provisions
of this Agreement, unless such Certificateholders shall have offered to the
Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and
liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; the right of the Trustee
to perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Agreement shall not be
construed as a duty, and the Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its
negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of any such act;

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

               (v) prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Termination
and after the curing of all Servicer Events of Termination which may have
occurred, the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the
facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper
or documents, unless requested in writing to do so by the Majority
Certificateholder; provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable
time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred
by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee not
reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of
this Agreement, the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such cost,
expense or liability as a condition to such proceeding. The reasonable expense
of every such examination shall be paid by the Servicer or, if paid by the
Trustee shall be reimbursed by the Servicer upon demand. Nothing in this clause
(v) shall derogate from the obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable
law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Mortgagors;

                                       119

<PAGE>

               (vi) the Trustee shall not be accountable, shall have any
liability or make any representation as to any acts or omissions hereunder of
the Servicer until such time as the Trustee may be required to act as Servicer
pursuant to Section 7.02;

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

               (viii) the right of the Trustee to perform any discretionary act
enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty, and the Trustee
shall not be answerable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct in
the performance of such act.

     Section 8.03 Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.

     The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the
authentication of the Trustee on the Certificates) shall be taken as the
statements of the Seller, and the Trustee does not assume any responsibility for
the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the
validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the Certificates (other than the
signature and authentication of the Trustee on the Certificates) or of any
Mortgage Loan or Related Document. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the
use or application by the Servicer, or for the use or application of any funds
paid to the Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or
withdrawn from the Collection Account by the Servicer. The Trustee shall not at
any time have any responsibility or liability for or with respect to the
legality, validity and enforceability of any Mortgage or any Mortgage Loan, or
the perfection and priority of any Mortgage or the maintenance of any such
perfection and priority, or for or with respect to the sufficiency of the Trust
or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed to Certificateholders
under this Agreement, including, without limitation: the existence, condition
and ownership of any Mortgaged Property; the existence and enforceability of any
hazard insurance thereon (other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of
the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02); the validity of the assignment of any
Mortgage Loan to the Trustee or of any intervening assignment; the completeness
of any Mortgage Loan; the performance or enforcement of any Mortgage Loan (other
than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant to Section
7.02); the compliance by the Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer with any
warranty or representation made under this Agreement or in any related document
or the accuracy of any such warranty or representation prior to the Trustee's
receipt of notice or other discovery of any non-compliance therewith or any
breach thereof; any investment of monies by or at the direction of the Servicer
or any loss resulting therefrom; the acts or omissions of any of the Servicer
(other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant to
Section 7.02), or any Mortgagor; any action of the Servicer (other than if the
Trustee shall assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02), taken
in the name of the Trustee; the failure of the Servicer to act or perform any
duties required of it as agent of the Trustee hereunder; or any action by the
Trustee taken at the instruction of the Servicer (other than if the Trustee
shall assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02); provided,
however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the Trustee of its obligation to
perform its duties under this Agreement. The Trustee shall not have any
responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement in any public
office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any
security interest or lien granted to it hereunder.

     Section 8.04 Trustee May Own Certificates.

     The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or
pledgee of Certificates with the same rights as it would have if it were not
Trustee and may transact any banking and trust business with the Seller, the
Servicer, the Depositor or their Affiliates.

     Section 8.05 Seller to Pay Trustee Fees and Expenses.

     The Trustee shall withdraw from the Distribution Account on each
Distribution Date and pay to itself the Trustee Fee pursuant to Section 4.01(i)
and, to the extent the Interest Remittance Amount is at any time insufficient
for such purpose, the Seller shall pay such fees as reasonable compensation
(which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the
compensation of a trustee of an express trust) for all services rendered by it
in the execution of the trusts hereby created and in the exercise and
performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Trustee, and the
Seller will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable
expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in
accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement (including the
reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of
all persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement
or advance as may arise from such party's negligence or bad faith or which is
the responsibility of Certificateholders, the Trustee hereunder. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, including Section 2.03(a) and Section
2.04, to the contrary, the Seller covenants and agrees to indemnify the Trustee
and its officers, directors, employees and agents from, and hold each of them
harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims or expenses
incurred in connection with (a) any legal action relating to this Agreement, the
Custodial Agreement, the Certificates or incurred in connection with the
administration of the Trust, other than with respect to a party, any loss,
liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
negligence of such party in the performance of its duties hereunder or by reason
of such party's reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder and (b)
the second paragraph of Section 2.01. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, in no event shall the Trustee be liable for special, indirect
or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not
limited to lost profits), even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood
of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. The Trustee and any
director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee shall be indemnified, to the
extent not paid by the Seller pursuant to this Section, by the Trust Fund and
held harmless against any loss, liability or expense (not including expenses,
disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee, in the ordinary
course of the Trustee's performance in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement) incurred by the Trustee or such party arising out of or in connection
with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Agreement, other
than in connection with the indemnification provided pursuant to clause (a)
above, any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance,
bad faith or negligence in the performance by the Trustee of its duties under
this Agreement or by reason of the reckless disregard of the Trustee's
obligations and duties under this Agreement. This section shall survive
termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of any Trustee
hereunder.

     Section 8.06 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.

     The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a Department of Housing and
Urban Development and Federal Housing Administration approved mortgagee, an
entity duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States
of America or any state thereof, authorized under such laws to exercise
corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least
$50,000,000 and a minimum long-term debt rating of BBB by Fitch and S&P, a long
term debt rating of at least A1 or better by Moody's, and a minimum short term
debt rating of at least A1 by S&P, and subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authority. If such entity publishes reports of condition at
least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid
supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 8.06,
the combined capital and surplus of such entity shall be deemed to be its
combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition
so published. The principal office of the Trustee (other than the initial
Trustee) shall be in a state with respect to which an Opinion of Counsel has
been delivered to such Trustee at the time such Trustee is appointed Trustee to
the effect that the Trust will not be a taxable entity under the laws of such
state. In case at any time the

                                       121

<PAGE>

Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 8.06, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the
effect specified in Section 8.07.

     Section 8.07 Resignation or Removal of Trustee.

     The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby
created by giving written notice thereof to the Depositor, the Servicer and each
Rating Agency. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall
promptly appoint a successor Trustee, by written instrument, in duplicate, one
copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one
copy to the successor Trustee. If no successor Trustee shall have been so
appointed and having accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of
such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

     If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with
the provisions of Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after written request
therefor by the Depositor, or if at any time the Trustee shall be legally unable
to act, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the
Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take
charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose
of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Depositor may remove
the Trustee. If the Depositor or the Servicer removes the Trustee under the
authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the Depositor shall promptly
appoint a successor Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of
which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to
the successor Trustee.

     The Majority Certificateholders may at any time remove the Trustee by
written instrument or instruments delivered to the Servicer, the Depositor and
the Trustee; the Depositor shall thereupon use its best efforts to appoint a
successor Trustee in accordance with this Section.

     Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor
Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall not become
effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee as provided
in Section 8.08.

     Section 8.08 Successor Trustee.

     Any successor Trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, the Rating Agencies, the Servicer and
to its predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder,
and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become
effective, and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and
obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally
named as Trustee. The Depositor, the Servicer and the predecessor Trustee shall
execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably
be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor
Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

     No successor Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section
8.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 and the appointment of such
successor Trustee shall not result in a downgrading of the Regular Certificates
by either Rating Agency, as evidenced by a letter from each Rating Agency.

     Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as provided in this
Section 8.08, the successor Trustee shall mail notice of the appointment of a
successor Trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as
shown in the Certificate Register and to each Rating Agency.

                                       122

     Section 8.09 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.

     Any entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which
it may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any entity succeeding to
the business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder,
provided such entity shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 and
8.08, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the
part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.

     Section 8.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

     Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for
the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any
part of the Trust or any Mortgaged Property may at the time be located, the
Depositor and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute
and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the
Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the Trustee, or
separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust, and to
vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject
to the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations,
rights and trusts as the Servicer and the Trustee may consider necessary or
desirable. Any such co-trustee or separate trustee shall be subject to the
written approval of the Servicer. If the Servicer shall not have joined in such
appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in
the case a Servicer Event of Termination shall have occurred and be continuing,
the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee
or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility
as a successor Trustee under Section 8.06, and no notice to Certificateholders
of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under
Section 8.08. The Servicer shall be responsible for the fees of any co-trustee
or separate trustee appointed hereunder.

     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 Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or
performed by the 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 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 (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Servicer
hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act
or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including
the holding of title to the Trust 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 Trustee;

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

               (iii) the Servicer and the Trustee, acting jointly may at any
time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee
except that following the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Termination, the
Trustee acting alone may accept the resignation or remove any separate trustee
or co-trustee.

     Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed
to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as
effectively as if given to each of them. Every

                                       123

<PAGE>

instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this
Agreement and the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and
co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with
the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either
jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to
all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of
this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or
affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with
the Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Depositor, the Rating Agencies and
the Servicer.

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

     Section 8.11 Limitation of Liability.

     The Certificates are executed by the Trustee, not in its individual
capacity but solely as Trustee of the Trust, in the exercise of the powers and
authority conferred and vested in it by this Agreement. Each of the undertakings
and agreements made on the part of the Trustee in the Certificates is made and
intended not as a personal undertaking or agreement by the Trustee but is made
and intended for the purpose of binding only the Trust.

     Section 8.12 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Certificates.

          (a) All rights of action and claims under this Agreement or the
Certificates may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Certificates or the production thereof in any
proceeding relating thereto, and such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall
be brought in its own name or in its capacity as Trustee for the benefit of all
Holders of such Certificates, subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Any
recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursement and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Certificateholders in respect of
which such judgment has been recovered.

          (b) The Trustee shall afford the Seller, the Depositor, the Servicer
and each Certificateholder upon reasonable notice during normal business hours,
access to all records maintained by the Trustee in respect of its duties
hereunder and access to officers of the Trustee responsible for performing such
duties. The Trustee shall cooperate fully with the Seller, the Servicer, the
Depositor and such Certificateholder and shall make available to the Seller, the
Servicer, the Depositor and such Certificateholder for review and copying at the
expense of the party requesting such copies, such books, documents or records as
may be requested with respect to the Trustee's duties hereunder. The Seller, the
Depositor, the Servicer and the Certificateholders shall not have any
responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Trustee and
are not obligated to supervise the performance of the Trustee under this
Agreement or otherwise.

     Section 8.13 Suits for Enforcement.

     In case a Servicer Event of Termination or other default by the Servicer or
the Seller hereunder shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee may proceed to
protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Certificateholders under
this Agreement by a suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law or otherwise,
whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in
this Agreement or in aid of the execution of any power granted in this Agreement
or for the enforcement of

                                       124

<PAGE>

any other legal, equitable or other remedy, as the Trustee, being advised by
counsel, and subject to the foregoing, shall deem most effectual to protect and
enforce any of the rights of the Trustee and the Certificateholders.

     Section 8.14 Waiver of Bond Requirement.

     The Trustee shall be relieved of, and each Certificateholder hereby waives,
any requirement of any jurisdiction in which the Trust, or any part thereof, may
be located that the Trustee post a bond or other surety with any court, agency
or body whatsoever.

     Section 8.15 Waiver of Inventory, Accounting and Appraisal Requirement.

     The Trustee shall be relieved of, and each Certificateholder hereby waives,
any requirement of any jurisdiction in which the Trust, or any part thereof, may
be located that the Trustee file any inventory, accounting or appraisal of the
Trust with any court, agency or body at any time or in any manner whatsoever.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                     REMIC AND GRANTOR TRUST ADMINISTRATION

     Section 9.01 REMIC Administration.

          (a) The Trustee shall make or cause to be made REMIC elections for
each of REMIC 1, REMIC 2, REMIC B-1, REMIC B-2, REMIC B-3, REMIC B-4, the SWAP
REMIC, REMIC IO and REMIC CE as set forth in the Preliminary Statement on Forms
1066 or other appropriate federal tax or information return for the taxable year
ending on the last day of the calendar year in which the Certificates are
issued. The regular interests and residual interest in each REMIC shall be as
designated in the Preliminary Statement.

          (b) The Closing Date is hereby designated as the "Startup Day" of each
REMIC within the meaning of section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.

          (c) The Servicer shall pay any and all tax related expenses (not
including taxes) of each REMIC, including but not limited to any professional
fees or expenses related to audits or any administrative or judicial proceedings
with respect to such REMIC that involve the Internal Revenue Service or state
tax authorities, but only to the extent that (i) such expenses are ordinary or
routine expenses, including expenses of a routine audit but not expenses of
litigation (except as described in (ii)); or (ii) such expenses or liabilities
(including taxes and penalties) are attributable to the negligence or willful
misconduct of the Servicer in fulfilling its duties hereunder. The Servicer
shall be entitled to reimbursement of expenses to the extent provided in clause
(i) above from the Collection Account, but only to the extent that such expenses
are "unanticipated expenses" under Treasury Regulations Section
1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii).

          (d) The Trustee shall prepare or cause to be prepared, sign and file
or cause to be filed, each REMIC's federal and state tax and information returns
as such REMIC's direct representative. The expenses of preparing and filing such
returns shall be borne by the Trustee.

          (e) The Holder of the Residual Certificates with respect to each REMIC
holding the largest Percentage Interest shall be the "tax matters person" as
defined in the REMIC Provisions (the "Tax Matters Person") with respect to the
applicable REMIC or REMICs, and the Trustee is irrevocably

                                       125

<PAGE>

designated as and shall act as attorney-in-fact and agent for such Tax Matters
Person for each REMIC. The Trustee, as agent for the Tax Matters Person, shall
perform, on behalf of each REMIC, all reporting and other tax compliance duties
that are the responsibility of such REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions,
or other compliance guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any state
or local taxing authority. Among its other duties, if required by the Code, the
REMIC Provisions, or other such guidance, the Trustee, as agent for the Tax
Matters Person, shall provide (i) to the Treasury or other governmental
authority such information as is necessary for the application of any tax
relating to the transfer of a Residual Certificate to any disqualified person or
organization and (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or reports as
are required by the Code or REMIC Provisions.

          (f) The Trustee, the Servicer and the Holders of Certificates shall
take any action or cause any REMIC to take any action necessary to create or
maintain the status of such REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and
shall assist each other as necessary to create or maintain such status. Neither
the Trustee, the Servicer, nor the Holder of any Residual Certificate shall take
any action or cause any REMIC to take any action or fail to take (or fail to
cause to be taken) any action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not
taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of such REMIC as a
REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon such REMIC (including but
not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Code Section
860F(a)(2) and the tax on prohibited contributions set forth on Section 860G(d)
of the Code) (either such event, an "Adverse REMIC Event") unless such action or
failure to take such action is expressly permitted under the terms of this
Agreement or the Trustee and the Servicer have received an Opinion of Counsel
(at the expense of the party seeking to take such action) to the effect that the
contemplated action will not endanger such status or result in the imposition of
such a tax. In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to any REMIC or
the assets therein, or causing such REMIC to take any action, which is not
expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement, any Holder of a Residual
Certificate will consult with the Trustee and the Servicer, or their respective
designees, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an
Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to such REMIC, and no such Person
shall take any such action or cause such REMIC to take any such action as to
which the Trustee or the Servicer has advised it in writing that an Adverse
REMIC Event could occur.

          (g) Each Holder of a Residual Certificate shall pay when due its pro
rata share of any and all taxes imposed on any REMIC by federal or state
governmental authorities. To the extent that such REMIC taxes are not paid by
Residual Certificateholders, the Trustee shall pay any remaining REMIC taxes out
of current or future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holder of the
Residual Certificate in each REMIC or, if no such amounts are available, out of
other amounts held in the Collection Account, and shall reduce amounts otherwise
payable to Holders of the REMIC Regular Interests or the Certificates, as the
case may be.

          (h) The Trustee, shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain or
cause to be maintained books and records with respect to each REMIC on a
calendar year and on an accrual basis.

          (i) No additional contributions of assets shall be made to any REMIC,
except as expressly provided in this Agreement with respect to Eligible
Substitute Mortgage Loans.

          (j) Neither the Trustee nor the Servicer shall enter into any
arrangement by which any REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for
services.

          (k) On or before April 15 of each calendar year beginning in 2007, the
Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and each Rating Agency an Officer's
Certificate stating the Servicer's compliance with the provisions of this
Section 9.01.

                                       126

<PAGE>

          (l) (i) It is intended that the rights of each Class of the Class A,
Class M and Class B Certificates to receive payments in respect of Excess
Interest shall be treated as a right in interest rate cap contracts written by
the Class CE Certificateholders in favor of the holders of each Class of the
Class A, Class M and Class B Certificates and such shall be accounted for as
property held separate and apart from the regular interests in REMIC 2 held by
the holders of the Class A and Class M Certificates, the regular interest in
REMIC B-1 held by the holders of the Class B-1 Certificates, the regular
interest in REMIC B-2 held by the holders of the Class B-2 Certificates, the
regular interest in REMIC B-3 held by the holders of the Class B-3 Certificates
and the regular interest in REMIC B-4 held by the holders of the Class B-4
Certificates. For information reporting requirements, the rights of the Class A,
Class M and Class B Certificates to receive payments in respect of Excess
Interest shall be assumed to have zero or a de minimis value. This provision is
intended to satisfy the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(i)
for the treatment of property rights coupled with REMIC interests to be
separately respected and shall be interpreted consistently with such regulation.
On each Distribution Date, to the extent that any of the Class A, Class M and
Class B Certificates receive payments in respect of Excess Interest, such
amounts, to the extent not derived from payments on the Swap Agreement, will be
treated as distributed by REMIC CE to the Class CE Certificates pro rata and
then paid to the relevant Class of Certificates pursuant to the related interest
rate cap agreement.

               (ii) It is intended that the beneficial owners of the
Certificates (other than the Class P, Class CE and Residual Certificates) shall
be treated as having entered into a notional principal contract with respect to
the beneficial owners of the Class CE Certificates. Pursuant to each such
notional principal contract, all beneficial owners of each Class of Certificates
(other than the Class P, Class CE and Residual Certificates) shall be treated as
having agreed to pay, on each Distribution Date, to the beneficial owners of the
Class CE Certificates an aggregate amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i)
the amount payable on such Distribution Date on the Corresponding REMIC 2
Regular Interest of such Class of Certificates over (ii) the amount payable on
such Class of Certificates on such Distribution Date (such excess, a "Class
Payment Shortfall"). A Class Payment Shortfall shall be allocated to each Class
of Certificates to the extent that interest accrued on such Class for the
related Interest Accrual Period at the Pass-Through Rate for a Class, computed
by substituting "REMIC 2 Net WAC Cap" for the Net WAC Cap set forth in the
definition thereof, exceeds the amount of interest accrued on such Certificate
at the Pass-Through Rate (without such substitution) for the related Interest
Accrual Period, and a Class Payment Shortfall payable from principal collections
shall be allocated to the most subordinate Class of Certificates with an
outstanding principal balance to the extent of such balance.

          (m) The parties intend that the portion of the Trust Fund consisting
of the uncertificated REMIC CE CE Interest, the uncertificated REMIC IO IO
Interest, the rights to receive payments deemed made by the Class A, Class M and
Class B Certificates in respect of notional principal contracts described in
Section 9.01(l)(ii), the Supplemental Interest Trust which holds the Swap
Agreement and the obligation of the holders of the Class CE Certificates to pay
amounts in respect of Excess Interest to the holders of the Class A, Class M and
Class B Certificates shall be treated as a "grantor trust" under the Code, for
the benefit of the holders of the Class CE Certificates, and the provisions
hereof shall be interpreted consistently with this intention. In furtherance of
such intention, the Trustee shall (i) furnish or cause to be furnished to the
holders of the Class CE Certificates information regarding their allocable
share, if any, of the income with respect to such grantor trust, (ii) file or
cause to be filed with the Internal Revenue Service Form 1041 (together with any
necessary attachments) and such other forms as may be applicable and (iii)
comply with such information reporting obligations with respect to payments from
such grantor trust to the holders of Class A, Class M, Class B and Class CE
Certificates as may be applicable under the Code.

          (n) The parties intend that the portion of the Trust Fund consisting
of the right to receive amounts distributable to the Class P Certificates
pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof shall be treated as

                                       127

<PAGE>

a "grantor trust" under the Code, for the benefit of the holders of the Class P
Certificates, and the provisions hereof shall be interpreted consistently with
this intention. In furtherance of such intention, the Trustee shall (i) furnish
or cause to be furnished to the holders of the Class P Certificates information
regarding their allocable share of the income with respect to such grantor trust
and (ii) file or cause to be filed with the Internal Revenue Service Form 1041
(together with any necessary attachments) and such other forms as may be
applicable.

          (o) The parties intend that amounts paid to the Swap Counterparty
under the Swap Agreement shall be deemed for federal income tax purposes to be
paid by the Class CE Certificates first, out of funds deemed received in respect
of the REMIC IO IO Interest, second, out of funds deemed received in respect of
the REMIC CE CE Interest and third, out of funds deemed received in respect of
notional principal contracts described in Section 9.01(l)(ii), and the
provisions hereof shall be interpreted consistently with this intention. On each
Distribution Date, to the extent that amounts paid to the Swap Counterparty are
deemed paid out of funds received in respect of the REMIC IO IO Interest or the
REMIC CE CE Interest, such amounts will be treated as distributed by REMIC IO or
REMIC CE, respectively, to the Class CE Certificates pro rata and then paid to
the Swap Counterparty pursuant to the Swap Agreement.

     The Supplemental Interest Trust shall be an "outside reserve fund" for
federal income tax purposes and not an asset of any REMIC. Furthermore, the
Holders of the Class CE Certificates shall be the beneficial owners of the
Supplemental Interest Trust for all federal income tax purposes, and shall be
taxable on all income earned thereon.

          (p) REMIC IO. All amounts deemed distributed in respect of the REMIC 2
IO Interest shall be treated as received by REMIC IO and then distributed by
REMIC IO in respect of the REMIC IO IO Interest.

          (q) REMIC CE. All amounts deemed distributed in respect of the REMIC 2
CE Interest shall be treated as received by REMIC CE and then distributed by
REMIC CE in respect of the REMIC CE CE Interest. All allocations of Realized
Losses to the REMIC 2 CE Interest shall result in similar allocations to the
REMIC CE CE Interest.

          (r) REMIC B-4. All amounts deemed distributed in respect of the REMIC
2 B-4 Interest shall be treated as received by REMIC B-4 then distributed by
REMIC B-4 in respect of the REMIC B-4 B-4 Interest. All allocations of Applied
Realized Loss Amounts and Realized Loss Amortization Amounts to the REMIC 2 B-4
Interest shall result in similar allocations to the REMIC B-4 B-4 Interest. If
on any Distribution Date the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class B-4
Certificates is increased pursuant to the last sentence of the definition of
"Certificate Principal Balance", then there shall be an equivalent increase in
the principal amount of the REMIC B-4 B-4 Interest on such Distribution Date.

          (s) REMIC B-3. All amounts deemed distributed in respect of the REMIC
2 B-3 Interest shall be treated as received by REMIC B-3 then distributed by
REMIC B-3 in respect of the REMIC B-3 B-3 Interest. All allocations of Applied
Realized Loss Amounts and Realized Loss Amortization Amounts to the REMIC 2 B-3
Interest shall result in similar allocations to the REMIC B-3 B-3 Interest. If
on any Distribution Date the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class B-3
Certificates is increased pursuant to the last sentence of the definition of
"Certificate Principal Balance", then there shall be an equivalent increase in
the principal amount of the REMIC B-3 B-3 Interest on such Distribution Date.

                                       128

<PAGE>

          (t) REMIC B-2. All amounts deemed distributed in respect of the REMIC
2 B-2 Interest shall be treated as received by REMIC B-2 then distributed by
REMIC B-2 in respect of the REMIC B-2 B-2 Interest. All allocations of Applied
Realized Loss Amounts and Realized Loss Amortization Amounts to the REMIC 2 B-2
Interest shall result in similar allocations to the REMIC B-2 B-2 Interest. If
on any Distribution Date the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class B-2
Certificates is increased pursuant to the last sentence of the definition of
"Certificate Principal Balance", then there shall be an equivalent increase in
the principal amount of the REMIC B-2 B-2 Interest on such Distribution Date.

          (u) REMIC B-1. All amounts deemed distributed in respect of the REMIC
2 B-1 Interest shall be treated as received by REMIC B-1 then distributed by
REMIC B-1 in respect of the REMIC B-1 B-1 Interest. All allocations of Applied
Realized Loss Amounts and Realized Loss Amortization Amounts to the REMIC 2 B-1
Interest shall result in similar allocations to the REMIC B-1 B-1 Interest. If
on any Distribution Date the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class B-1
Certificates is increased pursuant to the last sentence of the definition of
"Certificate Principal Balance", then there shall be an equivalent increase in
the principal amount of the REMIC B-1 B-1 Interest on such Distribution Date.

          (v) REMIC 2. On each Distribution Date, REMIC 2 shall be deemed to
have received the amounts deemed distributed in respect of the REMIC 1 Regular
Interests. Principal, interest, shortfalls and Realized Losses shall be deemed
paid to and allocated among the REMIC 2 Regular Interests in the same manner as
such items (other than payments to the Cap Carryover Certificates in respect of
Excess Interest and disregarding the deemed obligation to make payments in
respect of Class Payment Shortfalls) are paid or allocated in respect of the
related Certificates (the REMIC 2 AV-1 Interest being related to the Class AV-1
Certificates, the REMIC 2 AV-2 Interest being related to the Class AV-2
Certificates, the REMIC 2 AV-3 Interest being related to the Class AV-3
Certificates, the REMIC 2 AV-4 Interest being related to the Class AV-4
Certificates, the REMIC 2 M-1 Interest being related to the Class M-1
Certificates, the REMIC 2 M-2 Interest being related to the Class M-2
Certificates, the REMIC 2 M-3 Interest being related to the Class M-3
Certificates, the REMIC 2 M-4 Interest being related to the Class M-4
Certificates, the REMIC 2 M-5 Interest being related to the Class M-5
Certificates, the REMIC 2 M-6 Interest being related to the Class M-6
Certificates, the REMIC 2 B-1 Interest being related to the Class B-1
Certificates, the REMIC 2 B-2 Interest being related to the Class B-2
Certificates, the REMIC 2 B-3 Interest being related to the Class B-3
Certificates, and the REMIC 2 B-4 Interest being related to the Class B-4
Certificates). Amounts shall be deemed paid and allocated to the REMIC 2 IO
Interest equal to amounts paid and allocated to the Class LT1-IO Interest. On
each Distribution Date, principal shall be paid to, Realized Losses shall be
allocated to and accrued but unpaid interest shall be added to the principal
amount of the REMIC 2 CE Interest so that such principal amount shall equal the
excess of (i) the Pool Balance as of the close of the related Collection Period
over (ii) the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of each Class of
Certificates on such Distribution Date after all principal payments have been
made and Realized Losses have been allocated to such Certificates (other than
the Class CE Certificates). The portion of Available Funds remaining in REMIC 2
on a Distribution Date after all distributions have been made to the REMIC 2
Regular Interests shall be distributed to the Class R Certificates in respect of
the Class R-2 Interest. If on any Distribution Date the Certificate Principal
Balance of any Class of Certificates is increased pursuant to the last sentence
of the definition of "Certificate Principal Balance", then there shall be an
equivalent increase in the principal amounts of the REMIC 2 Regular Interests,
with each Corresponding REMIC 2 Regular Interest having an increase in its
principal amount equal to the increase in the Certificate Principal Balance of
the Corresponding Cap Carryover Certificates.

          (w) REMIC 1. On each Distribution Date, REMIC 1 shall be deemed to
have received the amounts deemed distributed in respect of the SWAP REMIC
Regular Interests. Amounts

                                       129

<PAGE>

with respect to interest shall accrue on the REMIC 1 Regular Interests at the
rates specified in the Preliminary Statement. Payments and Realized Losses shall
be allocated among the REMIC 1 Regular Interests so that (i) each of the Marker
Interests shall have a principal balance equal to 50% of the principal balance
of the related REMIC 2 Regular Interest (with, for purposes of this Section
9.01(w), the REMIC 2 AV-1 Interest being related to the Class LT1-AV1 Interest,
the REMIC 2 AV-2 Interest being related to the Class LT1-AV2 Interest, the REMIC
2 AV-3 Interest being related to the Class LT1-AV3 Interest, the REMIC 2 AV-4
Interest being related to the Class LT1-AV4 Interest, the REMIC 2 M-1 Interest
being related to the Class LT1-M1 Interest, the REMIC 2 M-2 Interest being
related to the Class LT1-M2 Interest, the REMIC 2 M-3 Interest being related to
the Class LT1-M3 Interest, the REMIC 2 M-4 Interest being related to the Class
LT1-M4 Interest, the REMIC 2 M-5 Interest being related to the Class LT1-M5
Interest, the REMIC 2 M-6 Interest being related to the Class LT1-M6 Interest,
the REMIC 2 B-1 Interest being related to the Class LT1-B1 Interest, the REMIC 2
B-2 Interest being related to the Class LT1-B2 Interest, the REMIC 2 B-3
Interest being related to the Class LT1-B3 Interest, and the REMIC 2 B-4
Interest being related to the Class LT1-B4 Interest) and (ii) the Class LT1-X1
Interest has a principal balance equal to the excess of (x) the remaining
principal balance of the Mortgage Loans over (y) the aggregate principal balance
of the Marker Interests (if necessary to reflect an increase in
overcollateralization, accrued and unpaid interest on the Class LT1-X1 interest
may be added to its principal amount to achieve this result). Notwithstanding
the preceding sentence, however, Realized Losses not allocated to any Class of
Certificates will not be allocated to any REMIC 1 Regular Interests. All
computations with respect to the REMIC 1 Regular Interests shall be taken out to
ten decimal places. Any portion of Available Funds remaining in REMIC 1 on a
Distribution Date after distributions to the REMIC 1 Regular Interests shall be
distributed to the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class R-1 Interest. If
on any Distribution Date the Certificate Principal Balance of any Class of
Certificates is increased pursuant to the last sentence of the definition of
"Certificate Principal Balance", then there shall be an equivalent increase in
the principal amounts of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests, with such increase
allocated (before the making of distributions and the allocation of losses on
the REMIC 1 Regular Interests on such Distribution Date) among the REMIC 1
Regular Interests so that, to the greatest extent possible, (i) each of the
Marker Interests has a principal balance equal to 50% of the principal balance
of the related REMIC 2 Regular Interest and (ii) the Class LT1-X1 Interest has a
principal balance equal to the excess of (x) the remaining principal balance of
the Mortgage Loans over (y) the aggregate principal balance of the Marker
Interests.

          (x) The SWAP REMIC. All payments of principal and interest at the Net
Mortgage Rate on each of the Mortgage Loans (other than amounts distributable to
the Class P Certificates pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof) received by the SWAP
REMIC with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be paid to the SWAP REMIC Regular
Interests until the principal balance of all such interests have been reduced to
zero and any losses allocated to such interests have been reimbursed. Any
available funds remaining in the SWAP REMIC on a Distribution Date after
distributions to the SWAP REMIC Regular Interests shall be distributed to the
Class R Certificates on account of the Class R-SW Interest. On each Distribution
Date, the Trustee shall distribute the aggregate Interest Remittance Amount (net
of expenses and payments to the Class P Certificates) with respect to each of
the SWAP REMIC Regular Interests based on the interest rates for each such SWAP
REMIC Regular Interest. On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute
the aggregate Principal Remittance Amount first to the Class SW-Z Interest until
its principal balance is reduced to zero and then sequentially to each of the
other SWAP REMIC Regular Interests in ascending order of their numerical class
designation, in equal amounts to each such class in such numerical designation,
until the principal balance of each such class is reduced to zero. All losses
shall be allocated among the SWAP REMIC Regular Interests in the same manner
that principal distributions are allocated. Subsequent Recoveries and loss
reimbursements shall be allocated in the reverse fashion from the manner in
which losses are allocated.

          (y) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
above distributions in this Section 9.01 (other than on the Certificates) are
deemed distributions, and distributions of funds from the Distribution Account
shall be made only in accordance with Sections 4.01 and 4.02 hereof.

     Section 9.02 Prohibited Transactions and Activities.

     Neither the Seller, the Depositor, the Servicer nor the Trustee shall sell,
dispose of, or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans, except in a disposition
pursuant to (i) the foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, (ii) the bankruptcy of the
Trust Fund, (iii) the termination of any REMIC pursuant to Article X of this
Agreement, (iv) a substitution pursuant to Article II of this Agreement or (v) a
repurchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II of this Agreement, nor
acquire any assets for any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund, nor sell
or dispose of any investments in the Distribution Account for gain, nor accept
any contributions to any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund after the
Closing Date, unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of
the party causing such sale, disposition, or substitution) that such
disposition, acquisition, substitution, or acceptance will not (a) affect
adversely the status of such REMIC as a REMIC or of the interests therein other
than the Residual Certificates as the regular interests therein, (b) affect the
distribution of interest or principal on the Certificates, (c) result in the
encumbrance of the assets transferred or assigned to the Trust Fund (except
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement) or (d) cause such REMIC to be
subject to a tax on prohibited transactions or prohibited contributions pursuant
to the REMIC Provisions.

     Section 9.03 Indemnification with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of
     REMIC Status.

     In the event that any REMIC formed hereunder fails to qualify as a REMIC,
loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a result
of a prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution under the REMIC
Provisions due to the negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and
obligations set forth herein, the Servicer shall indemnify the Holder of the
related Residual Certificate against any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses ("Losses") resulting from such negligence; provided,
however, that the Servicer shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable
to the action or inaction of the Trustee, the Depositor or the Holder of such
Residual Certificate, as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from
misinformation provided by the Holder of such Residual Certificate on which the
Servicer has relied. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the
rights and remedies of the Holder of such Residual Certificate now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no
event shall the Servicer have any liability (1) for any action or omission that
is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or
which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses
other than arising out of a negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties
and obligations set forth herein, and (3) for any special or consequential
damages to Certificateholders (in addition to payment of principal and interest
on the Certificates).

     Section 9.04 REO Property.

          (a) Subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations as
shall at any time be in force, and notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, the Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trust hereunder, shall not
rent, lease, or otherwise earn income on behalf of any REMIC constituting part
of the Trust Fund with respect to any REO Property which might cause such REO
Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure" property within the meaning of
section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by any REMIC
constituting part of the Trust Fund of any "income from non-permitted assets"
within the meaning of section 860F(a)(2) of the Code or any "net income from
foreclosure property" which is subject to tax under the REMIC Provisions unless
the Servicer has advised the Trustee in writing

                                       131

<PAGE>

to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions, such action would not adversely
affect the status of any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund as a REMIC
and any income generated for such REMIC by the REO Property would not result in
the imposition of a tax upon such REMIC.

          (b) The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to sell any REO
Property for its fair market value. In any event, however, the Servicer shall
dispose of any REO Property before the close of the third calendar year
beginning after the year of its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the
Servicer has received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service to
the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions and any relevant proposed
legislation and under applicable state law, any REMIC constituting part of the
Trust Fund may hold REO Property for a longer period without adversely affecting
its REMIC status or causing the imposition of a Federal or state tax upon any
REMIC. If the Servicer has received such an extension, then the Servicer shall
continue to attempt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value as
determined in good faith by the Servicer for such longer period as such
extension permits (the "Extended Period"). If the Servicer has not received such
an extension and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within 33
months after its acquisition by the Trust Fund or if the Servicer has received
such an extension, and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within
the period ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the
Servicer shall, before the end of the applicable period, (i) purchase such REO
Property at a price equal to the REO Property's fair market value as determined
in good faith by the Servicer or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest
bidder (which may be the Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce
a fair price prior to the expiration of the applicable period.

                                   TERMINATION

     Section 10.01 Termination.

          (a) The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Seller, the
Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar created
hereby (other than the obligation of the Trustee to make certain payments to
Certificateholders after the final Distribution Date and the obligation of the
Servicer to send certain notices as hereinafter set forth) shall terminate upon
notice to the Trustee upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which
the Certificate Principal Balance of each Class of Certificates has been reduced
to zero, (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan
in the Trust Fund, and (iii) the optional purchase by the Servicer of the
Mortgage Loans as described below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event
shall the trust created hereby continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from
the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late
ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date
hereof.

     The Servicer (or an Affiliate) may, at its option, terminate the Mortgage
Loans in the Trust Fund and retire the Certificates on the next succeeding
Distribution Date upon which the current Pool Balance is 10% or less of the Pool
Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date (x) by purchasing all of
the outstanding (i) Mortgage Loans in the Trust Fund at a price equal to the sum
of the outstanding Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and except to the
extent previously advanced by the Servicer, accrued and unpaid interest thereon
at the weighted average of the Mortgage Interest Rates through the end of the
Collection Period preceding the final Distribution Date plus unreimbursed
Servicing Advances, Advances and any unpaid Servicing Fees allocable to such
Mortgage Loans plus any costs or damages incurred by the Trust Fund in
connection with any violation by such Mortgage Loan of any predatory or abusive
lending laws and (ii) REO Properties in the Trust Fund at a price equal to their
fair market value as determined in good faith by the Servicer, and (y) in
addition to the foregoing, by paying sufficient funds to pay any Swap
Termination Payment in connection with the termination of the Trust Fund

                                       132

<PAGE>

pursuant to this Section 10.01 (the "Termination Price"). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Servicer (or an Affiliate) may not exercise its optional purchase
right unless any Reimbursement Amount owed to the Trust pursuant to Section 2.03
hereof has been paid.

     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, only an amount equal to
the Termination Price, reduced by the portion thereof consisting of any funds to
pay any Swap Termination Payment in connection with the termination of the Trust
Fund pursuant to this Section 10.01 (such portion, the "Swap Optional
Termination Payment"), shall be made available for distribution to the
Certificates. The Swap Optional Termination Payment shall be withdrawn by the
Trustee from the Distribution Account and remitted to the Supplemental Interest
Trust for payment to the Swap Counterparty. The Swap Optional Termination
Payment shall not be part of any REMIC and shall not be paid into any account
which is part of any REMIC. In connection with any such purchase pursuant to the
preceding paragraph, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in
the Distribution Account all amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account
(less amounts permitted to be withdrawn by the Servicer pursuant to Section
3.07), which deposit shall be deemed to have occurred immediately following such
purchase.

     Any such purchase shall be accomplished by delivery to the Trustee for
deposit into the Distribution Account as part of Available Funds on the
Determination Date before such Distribution Date of the Termination Price.

          (b) Notice of any termination, specifying the Distribution Date (which
shall be a date that would otherwise be a Distribution Date) upon which the
Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates to the Trustee for payment
of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the
Trustee upon the Trustee receiving notice of such date from the Servicer, by
letter to the Certificateholders mailed not earlier than the 15th day of the
month preceding the month of such final distribution and not later than the 15th
day of the month of such final distribution specifying (1) the Distribution Date
upon which final distribution of the Certificates will be made upon presentation
and surrender of such Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee
therein designated, (2) the amount of any such final distribution and (3) that
the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not
applicable, distributions being made only upon presentation and surrender of the
Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee therein specified. Not less
than five (5) Business Days prior to such Determination Date relating to such
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall notify the Seller of the amount of any
unpaid Reimbursement Amount owed to the Trust.

          (c) Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Trustee
shall cause to be distributed to the Holders of the Certificates on the
Distribution Date for such final distribution, in proportion to the Percentage
Interests of their respective Class and to the extent that funds are available
for such purpose, an amount equal to the amount required to be distributed to
such Holders in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.02.

          (d) In the event that all Certificateholders shall not surrender their
Certificates for final payment and cancellation on or before such final
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall promptly following such date cause all
funds in the Distribution Account not distributed in final distribution to
Certificateholders to be withdrawn therefrom and credited to the remaining
Certificateholders by depositing such funds in a separate escrow account for the
benefit of such Certificateholders, and the Servicer (if the Servicer has
exercised its right to purchase the Mortgage Loans) or the Trustee (in any other
case) shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders, to
surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution
with respect thereto. If within nine months after the second notice all the
Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Class R
Certificateholders shall be entitled to all unclaimed funds and other assets
which remain subject hereto

                                       133

<PAGE>

and the Trustee upon transfer of such funds shall be discharged of any
responsibility for such funds, and such Certificateholders shall look to the
Class R Certificateholders for payment.

     Section 10.02 Additional Termination Requirements.

          (a) In the event that the Servicer exercises its purchase option as
provided in Section 10.01, the Trust shall be terminated in accordance with the
following additional requirements, unless the Trustee shall have been furnished
with an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the failure of the Trust to comply
with the requirements of this Section will not (i) result in the imposition of
taxes on "prohibited transactions" of the Trust as defined in Section 860F of
the Code or (ii) cause any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding:

               (i) The Trustee shall designate a date within 90 days prior to
the final Distribution Date as the date of adoption of plans of complete
liquidation delivered to it by the Servicer of each of the remaining REMICs
included in the Trust Fund and shall specify such date in the final federal
income tax return of each REMIC;

               (ii) After the date of adoption of such plans of complete
liquidation and at or prior to the final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall
sell all of the assets of the Trust to the Servicer for cash; and

               (iii) At the time of the making of the final payment on the
Certificates, the Trustee shall distribute or credit, or cause to be distributed
or credited in the following order of priority (A) (i) to the Holders of each of
the Class A Certificates, pro rata and (ii) to the Class M-1, Class M-2, Class
M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5, Class M-6, Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3 and Class
B-4 Certificates, the related Certificate Principal Balance, as applicable, plus
one month's interest thereon at the applicable Pass-Through Rate, (B) (i) any
Net WAC Carryover Amounts not previously distributed and (ii) to the Class CE
Certificates, the amount of any remaining Monthly Excess Cashflow Amounts not
previously distributed thereon, (C) to the remaining REMIC Regular Interests the
amounts allocable thereto pursuant to Section 9.01 and (D) to the Class R
Certificateholders, all cash on hand in respect of the related REMIC or REMICs
after such payment (other than cash retained to meet claims) and the Trust shall
terminate at such time.

          (b) By their acceptance of Certificates, the Holders thereof hereby
agree to appoint the Trustee as their attorney in fact to: (i) designate such
date of adoption of plans of complete liquidation and (ii) to take such other
action in connection therewith as may be reasonably required to carry out such
plans of complete liquidation all in accordance with the terms hereof.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

     Section 11.01 Amendment.

     This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Seller, the
Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee; and without the consent of the
Certificateholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity, (ii) to correct or supplement any
provisions herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any other
provisions herein, (iii) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or
questions arising under this Agreement, which shall not be inconsistent with the
provisions of this Agreement, or (iv) to comply with any requirements imposed by
the Code; provided, however, that any such action listed in clause (i) through
(iv) above shall not adversely affect in any respect the interests of any
Certificateholder, as

                                       134

<PAGE>

evidenced by (i) notice in writing to the Depositor, the Servicer and the
Trustee from the Rating Agencies that such action will not result in the
reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any outstanding Class of Certificates
with respect to which it is a Rating Agency, or (ii) an Opinion of Counsel
delivered to the Servicer and the Trustee. In addition, this Agreement may be
amended from time to time by the Seller, the Depositor, the Servicer and the
Trustee without the consent of any of the Certificateholders to comply with the
provisions of Regulation AB.

     In addition, this Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Seller,
the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee, with the consent of the Majority
Certificateholders for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in
any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of
modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates; provided,
however, that no such amendment or waiver shall (x) reduce in any manner the
amount of, or delay the timing of, payments on the Certificates which are
required to be made on any Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such
Certificate, (y) adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the
Holders of any Class of Certificates in a manner other than as described in
clause (x) above, without the consent of the Holders of Certificates of such
Class evidencing at least a 66 2/3% Percentage Interest in such Class, or (z)
reduce the percentage of Voting Rights required by clause (y) above without the
consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding. Upon
approval of an amendment, a copy of such amendment shall be sent to the Rating
Agencies.

     Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the Trustee
shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense
of the Person seeking such amendment) stating that the execution of such
amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement. The Trustee may, but
shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects the
Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement.

     The Trustee shall not enter into any amendment to this Agreement that would
have a materially adverse effect on the Swap Counterparty without first
obtaining the consent of the Swap Counterparty.

     Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the
Trustee shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall
have first received an Opinion of Counsel, delivered by (and at the expense of)
the Person seeking such Amendment, to the effect that such amendment is
permitted hereunder and will not result in the imposition of a tax on any REMIC
constituting part of the Trust Fund pursuant to the REMIC Provisions or cause
any REMIC constituting part of the Trust to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any
time that any Certificates are outstanding and that the amendment is being made
in accordance with the terms hereof.

     Promptly after the execution of any such amendment the Trustee shall
furnish, at the expense of the Person that requested the amendment if such
Person is the Seller or the Servicer (but in no event at the expense of the
Trustee), otherwise at the expense of the Trust, a copy of such amendment and
the Opinion of Counsel referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph to the
Servicer and each Rating Agency.

     It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this
Section 11.01 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment; instead
it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The
manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the
execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable
regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11.01, the
Trustee, the Seller and the Servicer shall reasonably cooperate with the
Depositor and its counsel to enter into such amendments or modifications to the
Agreement as may be necessary to comply with Regulation AB and any

                                       135

interpretation thereof by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Seller, the Servicer and the Trustee
shall be obligated to enter into any amendment pursuant to this paragraph that
adversely affects its obligations and immunities under this Agreement.

     Section 11.02 Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.

     To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement is subject to
recordation in all appropriate public offices for real property records in all
the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or all of the
properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and in any other appropriate
public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by the
Servicer at the expense of the Trust, but only upon direction of
Certificateholders, accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such
recordation materially and beneficially affects the interests of the
Certificateholders.

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

     Section 11.03 Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders.

     The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not (i) operate to
terminate this Agreement or the Trust, (ii) entitle such Certificateholder's
legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or
proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the Trust, or (iii)
otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto
or any of them.

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

     No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any provision of
this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law
upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, unless such Holder previously
shall have given to the Trustee a written notice of default and of the
continuance thereof, as herein provided, and unless also the Holders of
Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights shall have made
written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in
its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such
reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and
liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee for 15 days after
its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected
or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding. It is understood
and intended, and expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every
other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of
Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of any
provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the
Holders of any other of such Certificates, or to obtain or seek to obtain
priority over or preference to any other such Holder, which priority or
preference is not otherwise provided for herein, or to enforce any right under
this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable
and common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement
of the provisions of this Section 11.03 each and every Certificateholder and the
Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in
equity.

     Section 11.11 Acts of Certificateholders.

          (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action provided by this Agreement to be given or taken by the
Certificateholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments
of substantially similar tenor signed by such Certificateholders in person or by
agent duly appointed in writing; and such action shall become effective when
such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee, the Seller and the
Servicer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and
evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "act" of the
Certificateholders 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 Agreement and conclusive in favor of the
Trustee and the Trust, if made in the manner provided in this Section 11.11.

          (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such
execution or by the certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized
by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing
such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Whenever
such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his or her
individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute
sufficient proof of his authority.

          (c) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action by any Certificateholder shall bind every future Holder
of such Certificate and the Holder of every Certificate issued upon the
registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in
respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the
Trust in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon
such Certificate.

clarified from time to time. Therefore, each of the parties agrees that (a) the
obligations of the parties hereunder shall be interpreted in such a manner as to
accomplish compliance with Regulation AB, (b) the parties' obligations hereunder
will be supplemented and modified as necessary to be consistent with any such
amendments, interpretive advice or guidance, convention or consensus among
active participants in the asset-backed securities markets, advice of counsel,
or otherwise in respect of the requirements of Regulation AB and (c) the parties
shall comply with reasonable requests made by the Depositor for delivery of that
or different information as the Depositor may determine in good faith is
necessary to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB, provided that such
information is available to such party without unreasonable effort or expense
and within such timeframe as may be reasonably requested.

     The undersigned, being first duly sworn, deposes and says as follows:

     1. The undersigned is [an officer of] ______________, the proposed

among Merrill Lynch Mortgage Investors, Inc., as depositor, Credit-Based Asset
Servicing and Securitization LLC, as sponsor, Litton Loan Servicing LP, as
servicer, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee").

to such terms in the Agreement. The Transferee has authorized the undersigned to
make this affidavit on behalf of the Transferee.

     2. The Transferee is, as of the date hereof, and will be, as of the date of
the transfer, a Permitted Transferee. The Transferee is acquiring the Residual
Certificate either (i) for its own account or (ii) as nominee, trustee or agent
for another Person who is a Permitted Transferee and has attached hereto an
affidavit from such Person in substantially the same form as this affidavit. The
Transferee has no knowledge that any such affidavit is false.

     3. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that (i) a tax will
be imposed on Transfers of the Residual Certificate to Persons that are not

(iii) the Person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability for
the tax if the subsequent Transferee furnished to such Person an affidavit that
such subsequent Transferee is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of
transfer, such Person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is
false.

     4. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that a tax will be
imposed on a "pass-through entity" holding the Certificate if at any time during
the taxable year of the pass-through entity a Person that is not a Permitted
Transferee is the record Holder of an interest in such entity. The Transferee
understands that, other than in the case of an "electing large partnership"
under Section 775 of the Code, such tax will not be imposed for any period with
respect to which the record Holder furnishes to the pass-through entity an
affidavit that such record Holder is a Permitted Transferee and the pass-through
entity does not have actual knowledge that such affidavit is false. (For this
purpose, a "pass-through entity" includes a regulated investment company, a real
estate investment trust or common trust fund, a partnership, trust or estate,
and certain cooperatives and, except as may be provided in Treasury Regulations,
persons holding interests in pass-through entities as a nominee for another
Person.)

Agreement and understands the legal consequences of the acquisition of the
Residual Certificate including, without limitation, the restrictions on
subsequent Transfers and the provisions regarding voiding the transfer and
mandatory sales. The Transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and to abide by
the provisions of Section 5.02 of the Agreement and the restrictions noted on
the face of the Certificate. The Transferee

herein shall render the transfer to the Transferee contemplated hereby null and
void.

     6. The Transferee agrees to require a transfer affidavit in the form of
this Affidavit from any Person to whom the Transferee attempts to transfer the
Residual Certificate, and in connection with any transfer by a Person for whom
the Transferee is acting as nominee, trustee or agent, and the Transferee will
not transfer the Residual Certificate or cause the Residual Certificate to be
transferred to any Person that the Transferee knows is not a Permitted
Transferee.

     7. The Transferee historically has paid its debts as they have become due.

     8. The Transferee does not have the intention to impede the assessment or
collection of any tax legally required to be paid with respect to the Residual
Certificate.

     9. The taxpayer identification number of the Transferee's nominee is
___________.

     10. The Transferee is a U.S. Person as defined in Code Section 7701(a)(30).

     11. The Transferee is aware that the Residual Certificate may be a
"noneconomic residual interest" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
promulgated pursuant to the Code and that the transferor of a noneconomic
residual interest will remain liable for any taxes due with respect to the
income on such residual interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer
was to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

     12. The Transferee will not cause income from the Residual Certificate to
be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the
meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the Transferee or any other
person.

     13. If the Transferee is purchasing the Residual Certificate in a transfer
intended to meet the safe harbor provisions of Treasury Regulations Sections
1.860E-1(c), the Transferee has executed and attached Attachment A hereto.

     14. The Transferee is not an employee benefit plan or arrangement subject

subject to any state, local or other federal law substantively similar to the
foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code (collectively, a "Plan"), and is not
directly or indirectly acquiring this Certificate for, on behalf of or with any
assets of any such Plan.

Certificates, Series 2006-CB4 (the "Certificates"), we certify that (a) we
understand that the Certificates have not been registered under the Securities

transaction that is exempt from the registration requirements of the Act, (b) we
have not offered or sold any Certificates to, or solicited offers to buy any
Certificates from, any person, or otherwise approached or negotiated with any
person with respect thereto, in a manner that would be deemed, or taken any
other action which would result in, a violation of Section 5 of the Act, (c) to
the extent we are disposing of a Class [R]R-X] Certificate, we have no knowledge

    Dear
      Nick:

    

    We
      are
      pleased to confirm that Sunterra Corporation (the “Company”) has retained
      Mackinac Partners, LLC (“MP”) on the following basis:

     

    1.   The
      Company engages MP as its agent for the purposes of: (a) providing interim
      management services to Sunterra Europe. C. Alan Bentley (“Mr. Bentley”) shall
      serve as the Interim Chief Operating Officer of Sunterra Europe or such other
      title as the Company and MP may deem appropriate; (b) providing financial
      analysis to the company; (c) assisting with the implementation of the
      restructuring plan and related downsizing of Sunterra Europe; (d) assist with
      the sale of Sunterra Europe if so directed by the Board of Directors; and (e)
      such other services that the parties’ shall agree.

     

    2.   Mr.
      Bentley will be under the direct supervision of the Company’s CEO and will
      operate at his direction, subject to applicable law.

     

    3.   The
      term
      of MP’s engagement will begin on May 16, 2006 and continue through August 31,
      2006. This agreement may be terminated at any time by either party with 15
      days
      prior written notice. The Company will remain liable for any and all unpaid
      charges through the date of termination, and for its obligations pursuant to
      paragraph 6 below notwithstanding the termination of this
      agreement.

     

    4.   As
      compensation for the services to be rendered by MP, the Company shall pay MP
      the
      sum of $85,000 per month plus reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
      subject to the provisions of paragraph 5 below. In connection with MP’s
      out-of-pocket expenses, MP shall provide the Company with a summary description
      of categories of out-of-pocket expenses and related amounts for the same. MP
      shall render monthly invoices at the first of each month for fees for the
      applicable month plus out-of-pocket expenses incurred to date. Payment shall
      be
      due by the last day of the month. The month of May 2006 is a partial month
      pursuant to this agreement and shall be billed at 1/2 of the monthly amount,
      or
      $42,500. Payment shall be due within 5 business days of signature of this
      agreement.

    5.   It
      is
      expected that the average monthly hours incurred during the course of this
      agreement will approximate 215 hours. In the event that the total number of
      hours of work performed by Mr. Bentley during the term of this Agreement is
      less
      than 648, MP shall, within thirty (30) days of invoice, reimburse Company the
      sum of three hundred ninety-five dollars ($395.00), multiplied by the difference
      between 648 and the number of hours of work performed. In the event that the
      total number of hours of work performed by Mr. Bentley during the term of this
      Agreement is greater than 858, Company shall, within thirty (30) days of
      invoice, pay to MP the sum of three hundred ninety-five dollars ($395.00),
      multiplied by the difference between the total number of hours of work performed
      and 858. For purposes of computation of hours of work performed, each hour
      of
      travel time shall equal one-half (1/2) hour.

     

    6.   In
      connection with engagements such as this, it is MP’s policy to receive
      indemnification. The Company will provide MP with the indemnification and
      contribution agreements described on the attached Exhibit
      A.

     

    7.   The
      Company shall include Mr. Bentley as an officer of the Company and shall direct
      the carrier of the Company’s Directors and Officers Liability Insurance (the
“D&O Insurance”) to include Mr. Bentley as an officer of the Company
      effective May 16, 2006. The Company will not allow the D&O Insurance to
      lapse or be reduced during the term of this agreement, and will continue the
      D&O Insurance coverage for Mr. Bentley in full force and effect for at least
      one year after the end of the term of this agreement.

     

    8.   Notices
      under this agreement must be in writing and be mailed, sent by recognized
      overnight courier, telecopied or hand delivered: (a) if to the Company at the
      address listed at the beginning of this agreement; and (b) if to MP, at its
      offices at 38710 Woodward Ave., Suite 240 Bloomfield Hills, MI 48304, Attention:
      Mr. C. Alan Bentley.

     

    
      9.   This
        agreement may be executed in counterpart.

       

      10.        
        This
        agreement incorporates the entire understanding of the parties and supersedes
        all previous agreements and/or discussions between MP and you concerning
        its
        subject matter.

       

      11.        
        This
        agreement may not be amended or modified except in writing executed by the
        Company and MP. In the event of the death or resignation of Mr. Bentley,
        or Mr.
        Bentley’s inability to perform, MP shall designate, subject to Company’s
        approval, another MP employee for the engagement described herein. Company
        shall
        incur no cost for any time devoted by MP and Mr. Bentley’s replacement for
        review of work performed by Mr. Bentley, or in preparation for replacing
        Mr.
        Bentley.

    EXHIBIT
      A

    

    INDEMNIFICATION/CONTRIBUTION
      PROVISIONS TO LETTER

    AGREEMENT
      DATED JUNE 5, 2006 BETWEEN

    SUNTERRA
      CORPORATION AND

    MACKINAC
      PARTNERS, LLC (“AGREEMENT”)

    

    1.   Except
      as
      otherwise defined below, all capitalized terms used in these provisions have
      the
      definitions given to them in the Agreement.

     

    2.   (a)   The
      Company will indemnify and hold harmless Mackinac Partners LLC and its partners,
      principals, affiliates, agents and employees, and any persons retained by MP
      in
      connection with the performance of the services described in the Agreement
      (“Indemnified Parties”), from and against all claims, losses, damages,
      liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, interest, penalties, and
      all amounts paid in investigation, defense or settlement of any of the
      foregoing) (collectively, “Claims”) arising out of, based upon or related to
      MP’s engagement under the Agreement, other than any Claims arising out of, based
      upon or related to the willful misconduct, malfeasance or gross negligence
      of
      any of the Indemnified Parties (collectively, “Damages”). The Company will be
      liable pursuant to this paragraph 2 for Damages incurred by an Indemnified
      Party
      unless a court having competent jurisdiction has determined by final judgment
      (not subject to further appeal) that such Damages resulted from the willful
      misconduct, malfeasance or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party. This
      indemnification will apply regardless of whether MP is a party to a lawsuit,
      claim or proceeding.

     

    (b)   If
      the
      Company so elects, and the Company gives adequate assurances of its ability
      to
      conduct such a defense and to pay any amounts which may ultimately be owed
      under
      this Exhibit A, the Company may assume the defense of any Claim against an
      Indemnified Party, including the employment of counsel reasonably acceptable
      to
      such Indemnified Party, and the payment of fees, expenses, and disbursements
      of
      such counsel. If the Company elects to assume such defense, the Company shall
      not be liable to any Indemnified Party under these indemnification provisions
      for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party
      in connection with such defense, other than reasonable costs of investigation,
      and except as provided in the following sentence. In the event that counsel
      for
      such Indemnified Party is of the opinion that having separate counsel would
      be
      appropriate under the circumstances due to actual or potential conflicts of
      interest, then the Indemnified Party may employ separate counsel reasonably
      acceptable to the Company to represent and defend the Indemnified Party in
      any
      Claim. The Company will be required to pay the fees and disbursements of such
      counsel, but will only pay for one counsel for all Indemnified Parties in any
      jurisdiction in any single action or proceeding. Any separate counsel retained
      by an Indemnified Party shall, as a condition of the indemnification and
      reimbursement commitments set forth herein, use its best commercially reasonable
      efforts to cooperate with the Company and any counsel designated by the Company.
      Subject to the provisions of paragraph 2(a) hereof, the Company shall be liable
      for any settlement of any Claim against any Indemnified Party entered into
      with
      the Company’s prior written consent. The Company shall not be liable for any
      settlement of any Claim effected without the Company’s written consent, which
      consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
