Mr. Thomas E. Hales

Chairman, President & CEO

U.S.B. Holding Co., Inc.

Union State Bank

100 Dutch Hill Road

Orangeburg, N.Y. 10962

 

Dear Mr. Hales:

 

This letter confirms my advices to you of my decision to retire as Senior Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Assistant Secretary of U.S.B. Holding Co., Inc. (the "Company") and Union State Bank (the "Bank"), and from all other positions which I hold with any subsidiaries or affiliates of the Bank or the Company or by virtue of my positions as an executive officer of the Bank and the Company effective as of the close of business on January 6, 2006.  As you know, I have also notified the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee of the Company of my intention not to stand for re-election on the Company Board of Directors at the May 25, 2005 Stockholders’ Meeting.

 

To assure an orderly transition of responsibilities to my successor, we have discussed and agreed to the following transition arrangements:

 

1.              My employment by the Company and the Bank will continue through the close of business on January 6, 2006 (the "Effective Time"), at which time my employment will terminate without notice or other action by any of us.  Through the Effective Time, I will continue to serve as Senior Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Assistant Secretary of the Company and the Bank and, in addition, will work with the Company and the Bank at their request to recruit a successor and facilitate an orderly transition.

 

2.              The Employment Agreement among me, the Company and the Bank dated July 28, 2004 (the "Agreement") shall terminate immediately, and neither the Company or the Bank nor I will have any further obligations under such Agreement, subject to the Company’s and the Bank’s written agreement to the terms and conditions set forth below.  

 

 

 

 

 

3.              In consideration of the termination of the Agreement, the following terms and conditions shall apply:  

 

 (a)         from the date of this letter through the Effective Time, I shall be entitled to continue to receive the cash salary and bonus currently provided for under Section 4 of the Agreement;

 

 (b)         from the date of this letter through the Effective Time, the Company and the Bank will maintain and pay the premiums for the life insurance policy described in Section 5 of the Agreement, and, if I become disabled prior to the Effective Time, the Company and the Bank will provide me with the disability compensation described in Section 5 of the Agreement from the date of such disability through the Effective Time; 

 

 (c)         from the date of this letter through the Effective Time, I shall continue to be treated as an employee of the Company and the Bank and shall be entitled to participate in and receive benefits under the employee benefit plans and programs described in Section 6 of the Agreement (other than grants of stock options);

 

 (d)         from the date of this letter through the Effective Time, and for a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, the Company and the Bank shall provide me with the insurance coverage and indemnification described in Section 7 of the Agreement;

 

 (e)         from the date of this letter through the Effective Time, I shall be entitled to the vacation time that I would have been entitled to if Section 10 of the Agreement were in effect during such period; and

 

 (f)         from the date of this letter through the Effective Time, I will abide by the confidentiality provisions set forth in Section 15 of the Agreement.

 

4.              I hereby waive any contractual right that I may have, under the Agreement or otherwise, to receive additional grants of stock options under any stock option plan, program or arrangement of the Company.  However, such waiver will not effect the terms and conditions of any of my existing options, which will continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of the plans under which they were granted.   

 

5.              The foregoing provisions of this letter will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon me, my legal representatives and my testate or intestate distributes, and the Company and the Bank and their successors and assigns.  No waiver of any provision of this letter shall be binding unless in writing and signed by me, the Company and the Bank.

 

If the foregoing provisions are acceptable to the Company and the Bank, please sign where indicated on the following page to indicate your agreement to and acceptance of the foregoing,

whereupon this letter agreement shall become a binding agreement among me, the Company and the Bank.

 

My eleven years with the Company and Bank have been both challenging and rewarding, and I am glad I have been able to contribute to its success.  I also want to let you know that I appreciate the opportunity to have been part of the USB family.

 

After 32 years of working in a very challenging profession and industry, I would like to, upon retirement from the Company and Bank, seek other endeavors, including my continuing involvement with not-for-profit organizations, exploring other business ventures, and spending more time with family.

 

As I mentioned to you, if you need my assistance in any way after I leave the Company, I would be glad to help on a consulting basis.  I am committed to giving 100 percent of my effort until I retire, and also to ensure an effective transition.

 

Again, thank you for your understanding and the opportunity.

 

Very truly yours,

 

/s/ Steven T. Sabatini

         POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT, dated as of March 1, 2005, among BEAR
STEARNS ASSET BACKED SECURITIES I LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as
depositor (the "Depositor"), EMC MORTGAGE CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation,
as seller (in such capacity, the "Seller") and as master servicer (in such
capacity, the "Master Servicer") and LASALLE BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a
national banking association, not in its individual capacity, but solely as
trustee (the "Trustee").

                              PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

         The Depositor is the owner of the Trust Fund that is hereby conveyed to
the Trustee in return for the Certificates.

                                     REMIC I

         As provided herein, the Trustee will elect to treat the segregated pool
of assets consisting of the Mortgage Loans and certain other related assets
subject to this Agreement (other than the Reserve Fund, the Swap Agreement, the
Swap Account and any rights or obligations in respect of the Swap Administration
Agreement) as a REMIC (as defined herein) for federal income tax purposes, and
such segregated pool of assets will be designated as "REMIC I". The Class R-1
Certificates will be the sole class of Residual Interests (as defined herein) in
REMIC I for purposes of the REMIC Provisions (as defined herein). The following
table irrevocably sets forth the designation, the Uncertificated REMIC I
Pass-Through Rate, the initial Uncertificated Principal Balance and, for
purposes of satisfying Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the

(1)      For purposes of Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the Treasury
         regulations, the Distribution Date immediately following the maturity
         date for the Mortgage Loan with the latest maturity date has been
         designated as the "latest possible maturity date" for each REMIC I
         Regular Interest.
(2)      Calculated in accordance with the definition of "Uncertificated REMIC I
         Pass-Through Rate" herein.

                                    REMIC II

         As provided herein, the Trustee will elect to treat the segregated pool
of assets consisting of the REMIC I Regular Interests as a REMIC for federal
income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets will be designated as
"REMIC II". The Class R-2 Certificates will be the sole class of Residual
Interests in REMIC II for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The following table
irrevocably sets forth the designation, the Uncertificated REMIC II Pass-Through
Rate, the initial Uncertificated Principal Balance and, for purposes of
satisfying Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the "latest possible
maturity date" for each of the REMIC II Regular Interests (as defined herein).
None of the REMIC II Regular Interests will be certificated.

(1)      For purposes of Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the Treasury
         regulations, the Distribution Date immediately following the maturity
         date for the Mortgage Loan with the latest maturity date has been
         designated as the "latest possible maturity date" for each REMIC II
         Regular Interest.
(2)      Calculated in accordance with the definition of "Uncertificated REMIC
         II Pass-Through Rate" herein. (3) REMIC II Regular Interest IO will not
         have an Uncertificated Principal Balance but will accrue interest
         on its uncertificated notional amount calculated in accordance with the
         definition of "Uncertificated Notional Amount" herein.

                                    REMIC III

         As provided herein, the Trustee will elect to treat the segregated pool
of assets consisting of the REMIC II Regular Interests as a REMIC for federal
income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets will be designated as
"REMIC III". The Class R-3 Certificates will represent the sole class of
Residual Interests in REMIC III for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.

         The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation,
Pass-Through Rate, Initial Certificate Principal Balance (or initial
Uncertificated Principal Balance, in the case of the Class CE, P and IO
Interests) and, for purposes of satisfying Treasury Regulation Section
1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the "latest possible maturity date" for each class of
Certificates and interests that represents ownership of one or more of the
Regular Interests in REMIC III created hereunder.

         Each Certificate, other than the the Class P Certificate, the Class CE
Certificate and the Class R Certificates, represents ownership of a Regular
Interest in REMIC III and also represents (i) the right to receive payments with
respect to the Basis Risk Shortfall Carry Forward Amount (as defined herein) and
(ii) the obligation to pay Class IO Distribution Amounts (as defined

                                       10

herein). The entitlement to principal of the Regular Interest which corresponds
to each Certificate shall be equal in amount and timing to the entitlement to
principal of such Certificate.

(1)      For purposes of Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the Treasury
         regulations, the Distribution Date in the month following the maturity
         date for the Mortgage Loan with the latest maturity date has been
         designated as the "latest possible maturity date" for each REMIC III
         Regular Interest.
(2)      This Class of Certificates represents ownership of a Regular Interest
         in REMIC III. Any amount distributed on this Class of Certificates on
         any Distribution Date in excess of the amount distributable on the
         related Regular Interest in REMIC III on such Distribution Date shall
         be treated for federal income tax purposes as having been paid from the
         Reserve Fund or the Swap Account, as applicable, and any amount
         distributable on the related Regular Interest in REMIC III on such
         Distribution Date in excess of the amount distributable on such Class
         of Certificates on such Distribution Date shall be treated as having
         been paid to the Swap Account, all pursuant to and as further provided
         in Section 3.20 hereof.
(3)      Calculated in accordance with the definition of "Pass-Through Rate"
         herein. Each Regular Interest in REMIC III (other than the Class CE, P
         and IO Interests) which corresponds to a Certificate will have the same
         Pass-Through Rate as such Certificate, except with respect to the Net
         Rate Cap. The Net Rate Cap for each such Regular Interest in REMIC III
         and Certificate is specified in the definition of "Net Rate Cap".
(4)      The Class CE Interest will accrue interest at its variable Pass-Through
         Rate on the Uncertificated Notional Amount of the Class CE Interest
         outstanding from time to time which shall equal the aggregate
         Uncertificated Principal Balance of the REMIC II Regular Interests
         (other than REMIC II Regular Interest P). The Class CE Interest will
         not accrue interest on its Uncertificated Principal Balance.
(5)      The Class P Interest is not entitled to distributions in respect of
         interest.
(6)      For federal income tax purposes, the Class IO Interest will not have a
         Pass-Through Rate, but will be entitled to 100% of the amounts
         distributed on REMIC II Regular Interest IO.
(7)      For federal income tax purposes, the Class IO Interest will not have an
         Uncertificated Principal Balance, but will have a notional amount equal
         to the Uncertificated Notional Amount of REMIC II Regular Interest IO.

                            CONVEYANCE OF TRUST FUND
                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

         Section 2.01 CONVEYANCE OF TRUST FUND.

         Pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Seller sold,
transferred, assigned, set over and otherwise conveyed to the Depositor, without
recourse, all the right, title and interest of the Seller in and to the assets
in the Trust Fund.

         The Seller has entered into this Agreement in consideration for the
purchase of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor pursuant to the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement and has agreed to take the actions specified herein.

         The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof,
hereby sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and otherwise conveys to the Trustee
for the use and benefit of the Certificateholders, without recourse, all the
right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to the Trust Fund.

         In connection with such sale, the Depositor has delivered to, and
deposited with, the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, the following
documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan so assigned: (i) the
original Mortgage Note, including any riders thereto, endorsed without recourse
(A) to the order of "LaSalle Bank National Association, as Trustee for
Certificateholders of Bear Stearns Asset Backed Securities I LLC Asset Backed
Certificates, Series 2005-HE3," or (B) in the case of a loan registered on the
MERS system, in blank, and in each case showing an unbroken chain of
endorsements from the original payee thereof to the Person endorsing it to the
Trustee, (ii) the original Mortgage and, if the related Mortgage Loan is a MOM
Loan, noting the presence of the MIN and language indicating that such Mortgage
Loan is a MOM Loan, which shall have been recorded (or if the original is not
available, a copy), with evidence of such recording indicated thereon (or if
clause (x) in the proviso below applies, shall be in recordable form), (iii)
unless the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan, the assignment (either an original or a
copy, which may be in the form of a blanket assignment if permitted in the
jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located) to the Trustee of the
Mortgage with respect to each Mortgage Loan in the name of "LaSalle Bank
National Association, as Trustee for Certificateholders of Bear Stearns Asset
Backed Securities I LLC Asset Backed Certificates, Series 2005-HE3," which shall
have been recorded (or if clause (x) in the proviso below applies, shall be in
recordable form) (iv) an original or a copy of all intervening assignments of
the Mortgage, if any, with evidence of recording thereon, (v) the original
policy of title insurance or mortgagee's certificate of title insurance or
commitment or binder for title insurance, if available, or a copy thereof, or,
in the event that such original title insurance policy is unavailable, a
photocopy thereof, or in lieu thereof, a current lien search on the related
Mortgaged Property and (vi) originals or copies of all available assumption,
modification or substitution agreements, if any; provided, however, that in lieu
of the foregoing, the Seller may deliver the following documents, under the
circumstances set forth below: (x) if any Mortgage, assignment thereof to the
Trustee or intervening assignments thereof have been delivered or are being
delivered to

                                       83
<PAGE>

recording offices for recording and have not been returned in time
to permit their delivery as specified above, the Depositor may deliver a true
copy thereof with a certification by the Seller or the title company issuing the
commitment for title insurance, on the face of such copy, substantially as
follows: "Certified to be a true and correct copy of the original, which has
been transmitted for recording"; and (y) in lieu of the Mortgage Notes relating
to the Mortgage Loans identified in the list set forth in Exhibit I, the
Depositor may deliver a lost note affidavit and indemnity and a copy of the
original note, if available; and provided, further, however, that in the case of
Mortgage Loans which have been prepaid in full after the Cut-Off Date and prior
to the Closing Date, the Depositor, in lieu of delivering the above documents,
may deliver to the Trustee and the Custodian a certification of a Servicing
Officer to such effect and in such case shall deposit all amounts paid in
respect of such Mortgage Loans, in the Protected Account or in the Distribution
Account on the Closing Date. In the case of the documents referred to in clause
(x) above, the Depositor shall deliver such documents to the Trustee or the
Custodian promptly after they are received. The Seller shall cause, at its
expense, the Mortgage and intervening assignments, if any, and to the extent
required in accordance with the foregoing, the assignment of the Mortgage to the
Trustee to be submitted for recording promptly after the Closing Date; provided
that the Seller need not cause to be recorded (a) any assignment in any
jurisdiction under the laws of which, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel
addressed to the Trustee delivered by the Seller to the Trustee and the Rating
Agencies, the recordation of such assignment is not necessary to protect the
Trustee's interest in the related Mortgage Loan or (b) if MERS is identified on
the Mortgage or on a properly recorded assignment of the Mortgage as the
mortgagee of record solely as nominee for Seller and its successors and assigns.
In the event that the Seller, the Depositor or the Master Servicer gives written
notice to the Trustee that a court has recharacterized the sale of the Mortgage
Loans as a financing, the Seller shall submit or cause to be submitted for
recording as specified above each such previously unrecorded assignment to be
submitted for recording as specified above at the expense of the Trust. In the
event a Mortgage File is released to the Master Servicer as a result of such
Person having completed a Request for Release, the Custodian shall, if not so
completed, complete the assignment of the related Mortgage in the manner
specified in clause (iii) above.

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

         Section 2.02 ACCEPTANCE OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS.

         (a) Based on the Initial Certification received by it from the
Custodian, the Trustee acknowledges receipt of, subject to the further review
and exceptions reported by the Custodian pursuant to the procedures described
below, the documents (or certified copies thereof) delivered to the Trustee or
the Custodian on its behalf pursuant to Section 2.01 and declares that it holds
and will continue to hold directly or through a custodian those documents and
any amendments, replacements or supplements thereto and all other assets of the
Trust Fund delivered to it in trust for the use and benefit of all present and
future Holders of the Certificates. On the Closing Date, the Trustee or the
Custodian on its behalf will deliver an Initial Certification, in the form of
Exhibit One to the Custodial Agreement, confirming whether or not it has
received the Mortgage File for each Mortgage Loan, but without review of such
Mortgage File, except to the extent necessary to confirm whether such Mortgage
File contains the original Mortgage Note or a lost note affidavit and indemnity
in lieu thereof. No later than 90 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee or
the Custodian on its behalf shall, for the benefit of the Certificateholders,
review each Mortgage File delivered to it and execute and deliver to the Seller
and the Master Servicer and, if reviewed by the Custodian or the Trustee, an
Interim Certifications, substantially in the form of Exhibit Two to the
Custodial Agreement. In conducting such review, the Trustee or the Custodian on
its behalf will ascertain whether all required documents have been executed and
received and whether those documents relate, determined on the basis of the
Mortgagor name, original principal balance and loan number, to the Mortgage
Loans identified in Exhibit B to this Agreement, as supplemented (provided,
however, that with respect to those documents described in subclauses (iv) and
(vi) of Section 2.01, such obligations shall extend only to documents actually
delivered pursuant to such subclauses). In performing any such review, the
Trustee and the Custodian may conclusively rely on the purported due execution
and genuineness of any such document and on the purported genuineness of any
signature thereon. If the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf finds any
document constituting part of the Mortgage File not to have been executed or
received, or to be unrelated to the Mortgage Loans identified in Exhibit B or to
appear to be defective on its face, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf
shall include such information in the exception report attached to the Interim
Certification. The Seller shall correct or cure any such defect or, if prior to
the end of the second anniversary of the Closing Date, the Seller may substitute
for the related Mortgage Loan a Replacement Mortgage Loan, which substitution
shall be accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 2.03 or shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel addressed to
the Trustee to the effect that such defect does not materially or adversely
affect the interests of the Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan within 60
days from the date of notice from the Trustee of the defect and if the Seller
fails to correct or cure the defect or deliver such opinion within such period,
the Seller will, subject to Section 2.03, within 90 days from the notification
of the Trustee purchase such Mortgage Loan at the Purchase Price; provided,
however, that if such defect relates solely to the inability of the Seller to
deliver the Mortgage, assignment thereof to the Trustee, or intervening
assignments thereof with evidence of recording thereon because such documents
have been submitted for recording and have not been returned by the applicable
jurisdiction, the Seller shall not be required to purchase such Mortgage Loan if
the Seller delivers such documents promptly upon receipt, but in no event later
than 360 days after the Closing Date.

                                       85
<PAGE>

         (b) No later than 180 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee or the
Custodian on its behalf will review, for the benefit of the Certificateholders,
the Mortgage Files and will execute and deliver or cause to be executed and
delivered to the Seller and the Master Servicer and, if reviewed by the
Custodian or the Trustee, a Final Certification, substantially in the form of
Exhibit Three to the Custodial Agreement. In conducting such review, the Trustee
or the Custodian on its behalf will ascertain whether each document required to
be recorded has been returned from the recording office with evidence of
recording thereon and the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf has received
either an original or a copy thereof, as required in Section 2.01 (provided,
however, that with respect to those documents described in subclauses (iv) and
(vi) of Section 2.01, such obligations shall extend only to documents actually
delivered pursuant to such subclauses). If the Trustee or the Custodian on its
behalf finds any document with respect to a Mortgage Loan has not been received,
or to be unrelated, determined on the basis of the Mortgagor name, original
principal balance and loan number, to the Mortgage Loans identified in Exhibit B
or to appear defective on its face, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf
shall note such defect in the exception report attached to the Final
Certification and shall promptly notify the Seller. The Seller shall correct or
cure any such defect or, if prior to the end of the second anniversary of the
Closing Date, the Seller may substitute for the related Mortgage Loan a
Replacement Mortgage Loan, which substitution shall be accomplished in the
manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.03 or shall deliver
to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee to the effect that
such defect does not materially or adversely affect the interests of
Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan within 60 days from the date of notice
from the Trustee of the defect and if the Seller is unable within such period to
correct or cure such defect, or to substitute the related Mortgage Loan with a
Replacement Mortgage Loan or to deliver such opinion, the Seller shall, subject
to Section 2.03, within 90 days from the notification of the Trustee, purchase
such Mortgage Loan at the Purchase Price; provided, however, that if such defect
relates solely to the inability of the Seller to deliver the Mortgage,
assignment thereof to the Trustee or intervening assignments thereof with
evidence of recording thereon, because such documents have not been returned by
the applicable jurisdiction, the Seller shall not be required to purchase such
Mortgage Loan, if the Seller delivers such documents promptly upon receipt, but
in no event later than 360 days after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary, the Trustee shall have no responsibility with respect to the
custody or review of Mortgage Files held by the Custodian pursuant to the
Custodial Agreement. The Trustee shall have no liability for the failure of the
Custodian to perform its obligations under the Custodial Agreement.

         (c) In the event that a Mortgage Loan is purchased by the Seller in
accordance with subsections 2.02(a) or (b) above or Section 2.03, the Seller
shall remit the applicable Purchase Price to the Master Servicer for deposit in
the Protected Account and shall provide written notice to the Trustee detailing
the components of the Purchase Price, signed by a Servicing Officer. Upon
deposit of the Purchase Price in the Protected Account and upon receipt of a
Request for Release with respect to such Mortgage Loan, the Trustee or the
Custodian will release to the Seller the related Mortgage File and the Trustee
shall execute and deliver all instruments of transfer or assignment, without
recourse, representation or warranty furnished to it by the Seller, as are
necessary to vest in the Seller title to and rights under the Mortgage Loan.
Such purchase shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the deposit
into the Protected Account was made. The Trustee shall promptly notify the
Rating Agencies of such repurchase. The obligation of the Seller to cure,
repurchase or substitute for any Mortgage Loan as to which a

                                       86
<PAGE>

defect in a constituent document exists shall be the sole remedies respecting
such defect available to the Certificateholders or to the Trustee on their
behalf.

         (d) The Seller shall deliver to the Trustee or the Custodian on its
behalf, and Trustee agrees to accept the Mortgage Note and other documents
constituting the Mortgage File with respect to any Replacement Mortgage Loan,
which the Trustee or the Custodian will review as provided in subsections
2.02(a) and 2.02(b), provided, that the Closing Date referred to therein shall
instead be the date of delivery of the Mortgage File with respect to each
Replacement Mortgage Loan.

         brought.

                  (iii) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the
         Seller, the sale of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller under the Mortgage
         Loan Purchase Agreement, the consummation of any other of the
         transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the fulfillment of or
         compliance with the terms hereof and thereof are in the ordinary course
         of business of the Seller and will not (A) result in a material breach
         of any term or provision of the charter or by-laws of the Seller or (B)
         conflict with, result in a breach, violation or acceleration of, or
         result in a default under, the terms of any other material agreement or
         instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which it may be bound,
         or (C) constitute a violation of any statute, order or regulation
         applicable to the Seller of any court, regulatory body, administrative
         agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over the Seller; and
         the Seller is not in breach or violation of any material indenture or
         other material agreement or instrument, or in violation of any statute,
         order or regulation of any court, regulatory body, administrative
         agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over it which breach or
         violation may materially impair the Seller's ability to perform or meet
         any of its obligations under this Agreement.

                  (iv) The Seller is an approved seller of conventional mortgage
         loans for Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and is a mortgagee approved by the
         Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to sections 203 and
         211 of the National Housing Act.

                  (v) No litigation is pending or, to the best of the Seller's
         knowledge, threatened, against the Seller that would materially and
         adversely affect the execution, delivery or enforceability of this
         Agreement or the ability of the Seller to sell the Mortgage Loans or to
         perform any of its other obligations under this Agreement in accordance
         with the terms hereof or thereof.

                  (vi) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court
         or governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery
         and performance by the Seller of, or compliance by the Seller with,
         this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated
         hereby, or if any such consent, approval, authorization or order is
         required, the Seller has obtained the same.

                  (vii) With respect to each Mortgage Loan as of the Closing
         Date (or such other date as may be specified in Section 7 of the
         Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement), the Seller hereby remakes and
         restates each of the representations and warranties set forth in
         Section 7 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to the Depositor and
         the Trustee to the same extent as if fully set forth herein.

                                       89

         (c) Upon discovery by any of the parties hereto of a breach of a
representation or warranty set forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
with respect to the Mortgage Loans that materially and adversely affects the
interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, the party discovering
such breach shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other parties. Any
breach of a representation or warranty contained in clauses (gg), (hh) and (tt)
through (ww) of Section 7 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of
a Group III Loan, shall be deemed to materially adversely affect the interests
of the related Certificateholders. The Seller hereby covenants, or Encore Credit
Corp. or People's Choice will (pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement), as applicable, with respect to the representations and warranties
set forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to the Mortgage
Loans, that within 90 days of the discovery of a breach of any representation or
warranty set forth therein that materially and adversely affects the interests
of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, it shall cure such breach in all
material respects and, if such breach is not so cured, (i) if such 90 day period
expires prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, remove such
Mortgage Loan (a "Deleted Mortgage Loan") from the Trust Fund and substitute in
its place a Replacement Mortgage Loan, in the manner and subject to the
conditions set forth in this Section; or (ii) repurchase the affected Mortgage
Loan or Mortgage Loans from the Trustee at the Purchase Price in the manner set
forth below; provided that any such substitution pursuant to (i) above or
repurchase pursuant to (ii) above shall not be effected prior to the delivery to
the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel if required by Section 2.05 hereof and any
such substitution pursuant to (i) above shall not be effected prior to the
additional delivery to the Trustee of a Request for Release. The Trustee shall
give prompt written notice to the parties hereto of the Seller's, Encore Credit
Corp.'s or People's Choice's, as applicable, failure to cure such breach as set
forth in the preceding sentence. The Seller, Encore Credit Corp. or People's
Choice (pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement), as applicable, shall
promptly reimburse the Master Servicer and the Trustee for any expenses
reasonably incurred by the Master Servicer or the Trustee in respect of
enforcing the remedies for such breach. To enable the Master Servicer to amend
the Mortgage Loan Schedule, the Seller, Encore Credit Corp. or People's Choice
(pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement), as applicable, shall, unless
it cures such breach in a timely fashion pursuant to this Section 2.03, promptly
notify the Master Servicer whether it intends either to repurchase, or to
substitute for, the Mortgage Loan affected by such breach. With respect to the
representations and warranties with respect to the Mortgage Loans that are made
to the best of the Seller's knowledge, if it is discovered by any of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Seller, the Trustee or the Custodian that
the substance of such representation and warranty is inaccurate and such
inaccuracy materially and adversely affects the value of the related Mortgage
Loan, notwithstanding the Seller's lack of knowledge with respect to the
substance of such representation or warranty, the Seller shall nevertheless be
required to cure, substitute for or repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan in
accordance with the foregoing.

         With respect to any Replacement Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Seller,
Encore Credit Corp. or People's Choice (pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement) shall deliver to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf for the
benefit of the Certificateholders such documents and agreements as are required
by Section 2.01. No substitution will be made in any calendar month after the
Determination Date for such month. Scheduled Payments due with respect to
Replacement Mortgage Loans in the Due Period related to the Distribution Date on
which such proceeds are to be distributed shall not be part of the Trust Fund
and will be retained

                                       90
<PAGE>

by the Seller, Encore Credit Corp. or People's Choice, as applicable. For the
month of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will include the
Scheduled Payment due on any Deleted Mortgage Loan for the related Due Period
and thereafter the Seller, Encore Credit Corp. or People's Choice shall be
entitled to retain all amounts received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage
Loan. The Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule for the benefit
of the Certificateholders to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan
and the substitution of the Replacement Mortgage Loan or Loans and the Master
Servicer shall deliver the amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee and the
Custodian. Upon such substitution, the Replacement Mortgage Loan or Loans shall
be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects, and the Seller,
Encore Credit Corp. or People's Choice, as applicable shall be deemed to have
made with respect to such Replacement Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the date of
substitution, the representations and warranties set forth in Section 7 or
Section 8 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to such Mortgage
Loan. Upon any such substitution and the deposit into the Protected Account of
the amount required to be deposited therein in connection with such substitution
as described in the following paragraph and receipt by the Trustee of a Request
for Release for such Mortgage Loan, the Trustee or the Custodian shall release
to the Seller, Encore Credit Corp. or People's Choice, as applicable, the
Mortgage File relating to such Deleted Mortgage Loan and held for the benefit of
the Certificateholders and the Trustee shall execute and deliver at the
Seller's, Encore Credit Corp.'s or People's Choice's direction such instruments
of transfer or assignment as have been prepared by the Seller, Encore Credit
Corp. or People's Choice, in each case without recourse, representation or
warranty as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller, Encore Credit Corp. or
People's Choice, as applicable, or its respective designee, title to the
Trustee's interest in any Deleted Mortgage Loan substituted for pursuant to this
Section 2.03.

         For any month in which the Seller, Encore Credit Corp. or People's
Choice substitutes one or more Replacement Mortgage Loans for a Deleted Mortgage
Loan, the Master Servicer will determine the amount (if any) by which the
aggregate principal balance of all the Replacement Mortgage Loans as of the date
of substitution is less than the Stated Principal Balance (after application of
the principal portion of the Scheduled Payment due in the month of substitution)
of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. An amount equal to the aggregate of such
deficiencies, described in the preceding sentence for any Distribution Date
(such amount, the "Substitution Adjustment Amount") shall be deposited into the
Protected Account, by the Seller, Encore Credit Corp. or People's Choice
delivering such Replacement Mortgage Loan on the Determination Date for the
Distribution Date relating to the Prepayment Period during which the related
Mortgage Loan became required to be purchased or replaced hereunder.

         In the event that the Seller, Encore Credit Corp. or People's Choice
shall have repurchased a Mortgage Loan, the Purchase Price therefor shall be
deposited into the Protected Account, on the Determination Date for the
Distribution Date in the month following the month during which the Seller
became obligated to repurchase or replace such Mortgage Loan and upon such
deposit of the Purchase Price, the delivery of an Opinion of Counsel if required
by Section 2.05 and the receipt of a Request for Release, the Trustee or the
Custodian shall release the related Mortgage File held for the benefit of the
Certificateholders to the Seller, Encore Credit Corp. or People's Choice, and
the Trustee shall execute and deliver at such Person's direction the related
instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the Seller, Encore Credit
Corp. or People's Choice, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary
to transfer title from the

                                       91
<PAGE>

Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders and transfer the Trustee's
interest to the Seller, Encore Credit Corp. or People's Choice to any Mortgage
Loan purchased pursuant to this Section 2.03. It is understood and agreed that
the obligation under this Agreement of the Seller, Encore Credit Corp. or
People's Choice to cure, repurchase or replace any Mortgage Loan as to which a
breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedies against
the Seller, Encore Credit Corp. and People's Choice respecting such breach
available to the Certificateholders, the Depositor or the Trustee.

         (d) The representations and warranties set forth in this Section 2.03
hereof shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Loans and Mortgage
Files to the Trustee or the Custodian for the benefit of the Certificateholders.

         Section 2.04 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE DEPOSITOR.

         The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Master Servicer and
the Trustee as follows, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date:

                  (i) The Depositor is duly organized and is validly existing as
         a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the
         State of Delaware and has full power and authority necessary to own or
         hold its properties and to conduct its business as now conducted by it
         and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement.

                  (ii) The Depositor has the full power and authority to
         execute, deliver and perform, and to enter into and consummate the
         transactions contemplated by, this Agreement and has duly authorized,
         by all necessary corporate action on its part, the execution, delivery
         and performance of this Agreement, assuming the due authorization,
         execution and delivery hereof by the other parties hereto, constitutes
         a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Depositor, enforceable
         against the Depositor in accordance with its terms, subject, as to
         enforceability, to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
         moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally
         and (ii) general principles of equity, regardless of whether
         enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law.

                  (iii) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the
         Depositor, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
         Agreement, and the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms hereof
         and thereof are in the ordinary course of business of the Depositor and
         will not (A) result in a material breach of any term or provision of
         the certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement of
         the Depositor or (B) conflict with, result in a breach, violation or
         acceleration of, or result in a default under, the terms of any other
         material agreement or instrument to which the Depositor is a party or
         by which it may be bound or (C) constitute a violation of any statute,
         order or regulation applicable to the Depositor of any court,
         regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having
         jurisdiction over the Depositor; and the Depositor is not in breach or
         violation of any material indenture or other material agreement or
         instrument, or in violation of any statute, order or regulation of any
         court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body
         having jurisdiction over it which

                                       92
<PAGE>

         breach or violation may materially impair the Depositor's ability to
         perform or meet any of its obligations under this Agreement.

                  (iv) No litigation is pending, or, to the best of the
         Depositor's knowledge, threatened, against the Depositor that would
         materially and adversely affect the execution, delivery or
         enforceability of this Agreement or the ability of the Depositor to
         perform its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the
         terms hereof or thereof.

                  (v) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court
         or governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery
         and performance by the Depositor of, or compliance by the Depositor
         with this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions
         contemplated hereby or thereby, or if any such consent, approval,
         authorization or order is required, the Depositor has obtained the
         same.

         The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee as of the
Closing Date, following the transfer of the Mortgage Loans to it by the Seller,
the Depositor had good title to the Mortgage Loans and the related Mortgage
Notes were subject to no offsets, claims, defenses or counterclaims.

         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 or the Custodian for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Upon
discovery by the Depositor or the Trustee of a breach of such representations
and warranties, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written
notice to the others and to each Rating Agency.

         Section 2.05 DELIVERY OF OPINION OF COUNSEL IN CONNECTION WITH
SUBSTITUTIONS AND REPURCHASES.

         (a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, with
respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not in default or as to which default is
not imminent, no repurchase or substitution pursuant to Sections 2.02 or 2.03
shall be made unless the Seller delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel,
addressed to the Trustee, to the effect that such repurchase or substitution
would not (i) result in the imposition of the tax on "prohibited transactions"
of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV, REMIC V or REMIC VI or contributions
after the Closing Date, as defined in sections 860F(a)(2) and 860G(d) of the
Code, respectively, or (ii) cause any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV,
REMIC V or REMIC VI to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding. Any Mortgage Loan as to which repurchase or
substitution was delayed pursuant to this paragraph shall be repurchased or the
substitution therefor shall occur (subject to compliance with Sections 2.02 or
2.03) upon the earlier of (a) the occurrence of a default or imminent default
with respect to such Mortgage Loan and (b) receipt by the Trustee of an Opinion
of Counsel addressed to the Trustee to the effect that such repurchase or
substitution, as applicable, will not result in the events described in clause
(i) or clause (ii) of the preceding sentence.

         (b) Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Seller or the Master Servicer
that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a "qualified mortgage" within the
meaning of section

                                       93
<PAGE>

860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact shall promptly
(and in any event within 5 Business Days of discovery) give written notice
thereof to the other parties and the Trustee. In connection therewith, the
Trustee shall require the Seller, Encore Credit Corp. or People's Choice, as
applicable, at the Seller's option, to either (i) substitute, if the conditions
in Section 2.03 with respect to substitutions are satisfied, a Replacement
Mortgage Loan for the affected Mortgage Loan, or (ii) repurchase the affected
Mortgage Loan within 90 days of such discovery in the same manner as it would a
Mortgage Loan for a breach of representation or warranty in accordance with
Section 2.03. The Trustee shall reconvey to the Seller, Encore Credit Corp. or
People's Choice the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant hereto (and the
Custodian shall deliver the related Mortgage File) 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 in accordance with Section 2.03.

         Section 2.06 COUNTERSIGNATURE AND DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATES.

         (a) The Trustee acknowledges the sale, transfer and assignment to it of
the Trust Fund and, concurrently with such transfer and assignment, has

(which are uncertificated) and the other assets of REMIC II and declares that it
holds and will hold the same in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of the
Holders of the REMIC II Regular Interests and the Class R-2 Certificates.

Certificates. The Trustee acknowledges receipt of the REMIC II Regular Interests
(which are uncertificated) and the other assets of REMIC III and declares that

         (e) The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof,
does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey in trust to the
Trustee without recourse all the right, title and interest of the Depositor in
and to the Class P Interest for the benefit of the Holders of the REMIC V

                                  ARTICLE III

               ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS

         Section 3.01 THE MASTER SERVICER TO ACT AS MASTER SERVICER.

         The Master Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in
accordance with customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage
loan servicers in the respective states in which the related Mortgaged
Properties are located. In connection with such servicing and administration,
the Master Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone and/or
through subservicers as provided in Section 3.03, to do or cause to be done any
and all things that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such
servicing and administration, including but not limited to, the power and
authority, subject to the terms hereof (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of
the Certificateholders and the Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other
instruments and documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any related Mortgaged
Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages (but only
in the manner provided herein), (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and
other Liquidation Proceeds or Subsequent Recoveries, and (iv) subject to Section
3.09, to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the
Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan; provided that the Master Servicer
shall take no action that is inconsistent with or prejudices the interests of
the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan or the rights and
interests of the Depositor or the Trustee under this Agreement.

         Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer,
in its own name or in the name of the Trust, the Depositor or the Trustee, is
hereby authorized and empowered by the Trust, the Depositor and the Trustee,
when the Master Servicer believes it appropriate in its reasonable judgment, to
execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, the Depositor, the
Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or
cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge and all other
comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, and with respect to
the Mortgaged Properties held for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The
Master Servicer shall prepare and deliver to the Depositor and/or the Trustee
such documents requiring execution and delivery by any or all of them as are
necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to service and administer
the Mortgage Loans. Upon receipt of such documents, the Depositor and/or the
Trustee shall execute such documents and deliver them to the Master Servicer.

         In accordance with the standards of the first paragraph of this Section
3.01, the Master Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as
necessary for the purpose of effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on
the Mortgaged Properties, which advances shall be reimbursable in the first
instance from related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 5.03,
and further as provided in Section 5.02. All costs incurred by the Master
Servicer, if any, in effecting the timely payments of taxes and assessments on
the Mortgaged Properties and related insurance premiums shall not, for the
purpose of calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders, be added
to the Stated Principal Balance under the related Mortgage Loans,
notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loans so permit.

                                       96

         Section 3.02 DUE-ON-SALE CLAUSES; ASSUMPTION AGREEMENTS.

         (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3.02, when any
property subject to a Mortgage has been or is about to be conveyed by the
Mortgagor, the Master Servicer shall to the extent that it has knowledge of such
conveyance, enforce any due-on-sale clause contained in any Mortgage Note or
Mortgage, to the extent permitted under applicable law and governmental
regulations, but only to the extent that such enforcement will not adversely
affect or jeopardize coverage under any Required Insurance Policy.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer is not required to exercise
such rights with respect to a Mortgage Loan if the Person to whom the related
Mortgaged Property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed satisfies the
terms and conditions contained in the Mortgage Note and Mortgage related thereto
and the consent of the mortgagee under such Mortgage Note or Mortgage is not
otherwise so required under such Mortgage Note or Mortgage as a condition to
such transfer. In the event that the Master Servicer is prohibited by law from
enforcing any such due-on-sale clause, or if coverage under any Required
Insurance Policy would be adversely affected, or if nonenforcement is otherwise
permitted hereunder, the Master Servicer is authorized, subject to Section
3.02(b), to take or enter into an assumption and modification agreement from or
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 state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon,
provided that the Mortgage Loan shall continue to be covered (if so covered
before the Master Servicer enters such agreement) by the applicable Required
Insurance Policies. The Master Servicer, subject to Section 3.02(b), is also
authorized with the prior approval of the insurers under any Required Insurance
Policies 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 Mortgage Note.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall not be deemed to be in
default under this Section 3.02(a) by reason of any transfer or assumption that
the Master Servicer reasonably believes it is restricted by law from preventing.

         (b) Subject to the Master Servicer's duty to enforce any due-on-sale
clause to the extent set forth in Section 3.02(a), in any case in which a
Mortgaged Property has been conveyed to a Person by a Mortgagor, and such Person
is to enter into an assumption agreement or modification agreement or supplement
to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage that requires the signature of the Trustee, or
if an instrument of release signed by the Trustee is required releasing the
Mortgagor from liability on the related Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall
prepare and deliver or cause to be prepared and delivered to the Trustee for
signature and shall direct, in writing, the Trustee to execute the assumption
agreement with the Person to whom the Mortgaged Property is to be conveyed and
such modification agreement or supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or
other instruments as are reasonable or necessary to carry out the terms of the
Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise to comply with any applicable laws
regarding assumptions or the transfer of the Mortgaged Property to such Person.
In connection with any such assumption, no material term of the Mortgage Note
(including, but not limited to, the Mortgage Rate, the amount of the Scheduled
Payment and any other term affecting the amount or timing of payment on the
Mortgage Loan) may be changed. In addition, the substitute Mortgagor and the
Mortgaged Property must be acceptable to the Master Servicer in accordance with
its servicing standards as then in effect. The Master Servicer shall notify the
Trustee that any such substitution or assumption agreement has been completed by
forwarding to the Trustee

                                       97
<PAGE>

the original of such substitution or assumption agreement, which in the case of
the original shall be added to the related Mortgage File and 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. Any fee collected
by the Master Servicer for entering into an assumption or substitution of
liability agreement will be retained by the Master Servicer as additional
servicing compensation.

         Section 3.03 SUBSERVICERS.

         The Master Servicer shall perform all of its servicing responsibilities
hereunder or may cause a subservicer to perform any such servicing
responsibilities on its behalf, but the use by the Master Servicer of a
subservicer shall not release the Master Servicer from any of its obligations
hereunder and the Master Servicer shall remain responsible hereunder for all
acts and omissions of each subservicer as fully as if such acts and omissions
were those of the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall pay all fees of
each subservicer from its own funds, and a subservicer's fee shall not exceed
the Servicing Fee payable to the Master Servicer hereunder.

         At the cost and expense of the Master Servicer, without any right of
reimbursement from its Protected Account, the Master Servicer shall be entitled
to terminate the rights and responsibilities of a subservicer and arrange for
any servicing responsibilities to be performed by a successor subservicer;
provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prevent or
prohibit the Master Servicer, at the Master Servicer's option, from electing to
service the related Mortgage Loans itself. In the event that the Master
Servicer's responsibilities and duties under this Agreement are terminated
pursuant to Section 8.03, the Master Servicer shall at its own cost and expense
terminate the rights and responsibilities of each subservicer effective as of
the date of termination of the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall pay
all fees, expenses or penalties necessary in order to terminate the rights and
responsibilities of each subservicer from the Master Servicer's own funds
without reimbursement from the Trust Fund.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall not be
relieved of its obligations hereunder and shall be obligated to the same extent
and under the same terms and conditions as if it alone were servicing and
administering the Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter
into an agreement with a subservicer for indemnification of the Master Servicer
by the subservicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to
limit or modify such indemnification.

         Any subservicing agreement and any other transactions or services
relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a subservicer shall be deemed to be
between such subservicer and the Master Servicer alone, and the Trustee shall
not have any obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to such subservicer
including any obligation, duty or liability of the Trustee to pay such
subservicer's fees and expenses. Each subservicing agreement shall provide that
such agreement may be assumed or terminated without cause or penalty by the
Trustee or other Successor Master Servicer in the event the Master Servicer is
terminated in accordance with this Agreement. For purposes of remittances to the
Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have
received a payment on a Mortgage Loan when a subservicer has received such
payment.

         Section 3.04 DOCUMENTS, RECORDS AND FUNDS IN POSSESSION OF THE MASTER
SERVICER TO BE HELD FOR TRUSTEE.

         Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Master
Servicer shall transmit to the Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee
as required by this Agreement all documents and instruments in respect of a
Mortgage Loan coming into the possession of the Master Servicer from time to
time and shall account fully to the Trustee for any funds received by the Master
Servicer or that otherwise are collected by the Master Servicer as Liquidation
Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or Subsequent Recoveries in respect of any such
Mortgage Loan. All Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the
control of, the Master Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether from
the collection of principal and interest payments or from Liquidation Proceeds
or Subsequent Recoveries, including but not limited to, any funds on deposit in
the Protected Account, shall be held by the Master Servicer for and on behalf of
the Trustee and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the
Trustee, subject to the applicable provisions of this Agreement. The Master
Servicer also agrees that it shall not create, incur or subject any Mortgage
File or any funds that are deposited in the Protected Account or in any Escrow
Account, or any funds that otherwise are or may become due or payable to the
Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to any claim, lien, security
interest, judgment, levy, writ of attachment or other encumbrance, or assert by
legal action or otherwise any claim or right of set off against any Mortgage
File or any funds collected on, or in connection with, a Mortgage Loan, except,
however, that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to set off against and
deduct from any such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to the
Master Servicer under this Agreement.

         Section 3.05 MAINTENANCE OF HAZARD INSURANCE.

         The Master Servicer shall cause to be maintained, for each Mortgage
Loan, hazard insurance on buildings upon, or comprising part of, the Mortgaged
Property against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other
hazards as are customary in the area where the related Mortgaged Property is
located with an insurer which is licensed to do business in the state where the
related Mortgaged Property is located. Each such policy of standard hazard
insurance shall contain, or have an accompanying endorsement that contains, a
standard mortgagee clause. The Master Servicer shall also cause flood insurance
to be maintained on property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, to the extent described below. Pursuant to
Section 4.01, any amounts collected by the Master Servicer under any such
policies (other than the amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of
the related Mortgaged Property or property thus acquired or amounts released to
the Mortgagor in accordance with the Master Servicer's normal servicing
procedures) shall be deposited in the Protected Account. Any cost incurred by
the Master Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose
of calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders or remittances to
the Trustee for their benefit, be added to the principal balance of the Mortgage
Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit. Such costs
shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer out of late payments by the related
Mortgagor or out of Liquidation Proceeds to the extent permitted by Section
4.02. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional
insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired
in respect of a Mortgage other than pursuant to such applicable laws and
regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such
additional insurance. If the Mortgaged Property is located at the

                                       99
<PAGE>

time of origination of the Mortgage Loan in a federally designated special flood
hazard area and such area is participating in the national flood insurance
program, the Master Servicer shall cause flood insurance to be maintained with
respect to such Mortgage Loan. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal
to the least of (i) the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan,
(ii) minimum amount required to compensate for damage or loss on a replacement
cost basis or (iii) the maximum amount of such insurance available for the
related Mortgaged Property under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as
amended.

         In the event that the Master Servicer shall obtain and maintain a
blanket policy insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans, it
shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in
the first sentence of this Section 3.05, it being understood and agreed that
such policy may contain a deductible clause on terms substantially equivalent to
those commercially available and maintained by comparable servicers. If such
policy contains a deductible clause, the Master Servicer shall, in the event
that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property a
policy complying with the first sentence of this Section 3.05, and there shall
have been a loss that would have been covered by such policy, deposit in the
Protected Account the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy
because of such deductible clause. Such deposit shall be from the Master
Servicer's own funds without reimbursement therefor. In connection with its
activities as administrator and servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Master
Servicer agrees to present, on behalf of itself, the Depositor and the Trustee
for the benefit of the Certificateholders claims under any such blanket policy.

         Section 3.06 PRESENTMENT OF CLAIMS AND COLLECTION OF PROCEEDS.

         The Master Servicer shall prepare and present on behalf of the Trustee
and the Certificateholders all claims under the Insurance Policies and take such
actions (including the negotiation, settlement, compromise or enforcement of the
insured's claim) as shall be necessary to realize recovery under such Insurance
Policies. Any proceeds disbursed to the Master Servicer in respect of such
Insurance Policies shall be promptly deposited in the Protected Account upon
receipt, except that any amounts realized that are to be applied to the repair
or restoration of the related Mortgaged Property as a condition precedent to the
presentation of claims on the related Mortgage Loan to the insurer under any
applicable Insurance Policy need not be so deposited (or remitted).

         Section 3.07 MAINTENANCE OF THE PRIMARY MORTGAGE INSURANCE POLICIES.

         (a) The Master Servicer shall not take any action that would result in
noncoverage under any applicable Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy of any loss
which, but for the actions of the Master Servicer would have been covered
thereunder. The Master Servicer shall use its best efforts to keep in force and
effect (to the extent that the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to maintain
such insurance), Primary Mortgage Insurance applicable to each Mortgage Loan.
The Master Servicer shall not cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy that is in effect at the date of the initial issuance
of the Mortgage Note and is required to be kept in force hereunder.

         (b) The Master Servicer agrees to present on behalf of the Trustee, the
Certificateholders claims to the insurer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance
Policies and, in

                                      100
<PAGE>

this regard, to take such reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit
recovery under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies respecting defaulted
Mortgage Loans. Pursuant to Section 4.01, any amounts collected by the Master
Servicer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the
Protected Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof.

         Section 3.08 FIDELITY BOND, ERRORS AND OMISSIONS INSURANCE.

         The Master Servicer shall maintain, at its own expense, a blanket
fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, with broad coverage
with responsible companies on all officers, employees or other persons acting in
any capacity with regard to the Mortgage Loans and who handle funds, money,
documents and papers relating to the Mortgage Loans. The fidelity bond and
errors and omissions insurance shall be in the form of the Mortgage Banker's
Blanket Bond and shall protect and insure the Master 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 Master 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 which is not in accordance with Accepted
Servicing Practices. No provision of this Section 3.08 requiring the fidelity
bond and errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the Master
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 Accepted Servicing Practices. The
Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate from the surety and
the insurer as to the existence of the fidelity bond and errors and omissions
insurance policy and shall obtain a statement from the surety and the insurer
that such fidelity bond or insurance policy shall in no event be terminated or
materially modified without thirty days prior written notice to the Trustee. The
Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee within five business days of receipt of
notice that such fidelity bond or insurance policy will be, or has been,
materially modified or terminated. The Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders must be named as loss payees on the fidelity bond and as
additional insured on the errors and omissions policy.

         Section 3.09 REALIZATION UPON DEFAULTED MORTGAGE LOANS; DETERMINATION
OF EXCESS LIQUIDATION PROCEEDS AND REALIZED LOSSES; REPURCHASES OF CERTAIN
MORTGAGE LOANS.

         (a) The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to foreclose upon
or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the
Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no
satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments. In
connection with such foreclosure or other conversion, the Master Servicer shall
follow such practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable and
as shall be normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities and
the requirements of the insurer under any Required Insurance Policy; provided
that the Master Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds in
connection with any foreclosure or towards the restoration of any property
unless it shall determine (i) that such restoration and/or foreclosure will
increase the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to
itself of such expenses and (ii) that such expenses will be recoverable to it
through Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds (respecting which it shall have
priority for purposes of withdrawals from the Protected Account pursuant to
Section 4.02). If the Master Servicer

                                      101
<PAGE>

reasonably believes that Liquidation Proceeds with respect to any such Mortgage
Loan would not be increased as a result of such foreclosure or other action,
such Mortgage Loan will be charged-off and will become a Liquidated Loan. The
Master Servicer will give notice of any such charge-off to the Trustee. The
Master Servicer shall be responsible for all other costs and expenses incurred
by it in any such proceedings; provided that such costs and expenses shall be
Servicing Advances and that it shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof from
the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgaged Property, as contemplated
in Section 4.02. If the Master Servicer has knowledge that a Mortgaged Property
that the Master Servicer is contemplating acquiring in foreclosure or by deed-
in-lieu of foreclosure is located within a one-mile radius of any site with
environmental or hazardous waste risks known to the Master Servicer, the Master
Servicer will, prior to acquiring the Mortgaged Property, consider such risks
and only take action in accordance with its established environmental review
procedures.

         With respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale shall
be taken in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders
(or the Trustee's nominee on behalf of the Certificateholders). The Trustee's
name shall be placed on the title to such REO Property solely as the Trustee
hereunder and not in its individual capacity. The Master Servicer shall ensure
that the title to such REO Property references this Agreement and the Trustee's
capacity hereunder. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the
Master Servicer shall either itself or through an agent selected by the Master
Servicer protect and conserve such REO Property in the same manner and to such
extent as is customary in the locality where such REO Property is located and
may, incident to its conservation and protection of the interests of the
Certificateholders, rent the same, or any part thereof, as the Master Servicer
deems to be in the best interest of the Master Servicer and the
Certificateholders for the period prior to the sale of such REO Property. The
Master Servicer shall prepare for and deliver to the Trustee a statement with
respect to each REO Property that has been rented showing the aggregate rental
income received and all expenses incurred in connection with the management and
maintenance of such REO Property at such times as is necessary to enable the
Trustee to comply with the reporting requirements of the REMIC Provisions. The
net monthly rental income, if any, from such REO Property shall be deposited in
the Protected Account no later than the close of business on each Determination
Date. The Master Servicer shall perform the tax reporting and withholding
related to foreclosures, abandonments and cancellation of indebtedness income as
specified by Sections 1445, 6050J and 6050P of the Code by preparing and filing
such tax and information returns, as may be required.

         In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any Mortgaged Property as
aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged Property
prior to three years after its acquisition by the Trust Fund or, at the expense
of the Trust Fund, request more than 60 days prior to the day on which such
three-year period would otherwise expire, an extension of the three-year grace
period unless the Trustee shall have been supplied with an Opinion of Counsel
addressed to the Trustee (such opinion not to be an expense of the Trustee) to
the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such Mortgaged Property
subsequent to such three-year period will not result in the imposition of taxes
on "prohibited transactions" of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV, REMIC V
or REMIC VI as defined in section 860F of the Code or cause any of REMIC I,
REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV, REMIC V or REMIC VI 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

                                      102
<PAGE>

Mortgaged Property (subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion of
Counsel). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Mortgaged
Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed to continue to
be rented) or otherwise used for the production of income by or on behalf of the
Trust Fund in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause such
Mortgaged Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the
meaning of section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or (ii) subject any of REMIC I, REMIC
II, REMIC III, REMIC IV, REMIC V or REMIC VI to the imposition of any federal,
state or local income taxes on the income earned from such Mortgaged Property
under section 860G(c) of the Code or otherwise, unless the Master Servicer has
agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund with respect to the
imposition of any such taxes.

         The decision of the Master Servicer to foreclose on a defaulted
Mortgage Loan shall be subject to a determination by the Master Servicer that
the proceeds of such foreclosure would exceed the costs and expenses of bringing
such a proceeding. The income earned from the management of any Mortgaged
Properties acquired through foreclosure or other judicial proceeding, net of
reimbursement to the Master Servicer for expenses incurred (including any
property or other taxes) in connection with such management and net of
unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Advances, Servicing Advances and any management fee
paid or to be paid with respect to the management of such Mortgaged Property,
shall be applied to the payment of principal of, and interest on, the related
defaulted Mortgage Loans (with interest accruing as though such Mortgage Loans
were still current) and all such income shall be deemed, for all purposes in the
Agreement, to be payments on account of principal and interest on the related
Mortgage Notes and shall be deposited into the Protected Account. To the extent
the income received during a Prepayment Period is in excess of the amount
attributable to amortizing principal and accrued interest at the related
Mortgage Rate on the related Mortgage Loan, such excess shall be considered to
be a partial Principal Prepayment for all purposes hereof.

         The Liquidation Proceeds from any liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, net
of any payment to the Master Servicer as provided above, shall be deposited in
the Protected Account on the next succeeding Determination Date following
receipt thereof for distribution on the related Distribution Date, except that
any Excess Liquidation Proceeds shall be retained by the Master Servicer as
additional servicing compensation.

         The proceeds of any Liquidated Loan, as well as any recovery resulting
from a partial collection of Liquidation Proceeds or any income from an REO
Property, will be applied in the following order of priority: first, to
reimburse the Master Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances
and Servicing Fees, pursuant to Section 4.02 or this Section 3.09; second, to
reimburse the Master Servicer for any unreimbursed Advances, pursuant to Section
4.02 or this Section 3.09; third, to accrued and unpaid interest (to the extent
no Advance has been made for such amount) on the Mortgage Loan or related REO
Property, at the Net Mortgage Rate to the first day of the month in which such
amounts are required to be distributed; and fourth, as a recovery of principal
of the Mortgage Loan.

         (b) On each Determination Date, the Master Servicer shall determine the
respective aggregate amounts of Excess Liquidation Proceeds and Realized Losses,
if any, for the related Prepayment Period.

                                      103
<PAGE>

         (c) The Master Servicer has no intent to foreclose on any Mortgage Loan
based on the delinquency characteristics as of the Closing Date; provided, that
the foregoing does not prevent the Master Servicer from initiating foreclosure
proceedings on any date hereafter if the facts and circumstances of such
Mortgage Loans including delinquency characteristics in the Master Servicer's
discretion so warrant such action.

         Section 3.10 SERVICING COMPENSATION.

         As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Master Servicer shall
be entitled to retain or withdraw from the Protected Account out of each payment
of interest on a Mortgage Loan included in the Trust Fund an amount equal to the
Servicing Fee.

         Additional servicing compensation in the form of any Excess Liquidation
Proceeds, assumption fees, late payment charges, all income and gain net of any
losses realized from Permitted Investments with respect to funds in or credited
to the Protected Account shall be retained by the Master Servicer to the extent
not required to be deposited in the Protected Account pursuant to Section 4.02.
The Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in
connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including payment of any
premiums for hazard insurance, as required by Section 3.05 and maintenance of
the other forms of insurance coverage required by Section 3.07) and shall not be
entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided in Section
4.02.

         Section 3.11 REO PROPERTY.

         (a) In the event the Trust Fund acquires ownership of any REO Property
in respect of any related Mortgage Loan, the deed or certificate of sale shall
be issued to the Trustee, or to its nominee, on behalf of the related
Certificateholders. The Master Servicer shall sell any REO Property as
expeditiously as possible and in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Master
Servicer shall protect and conserve such REO Property in the manner and to the
extent required herein, in accordance with the REMIC Provisions.

         (b) The Master Servicer shall deposit all funds collected and received
in connection with the operation of any REO Property into the Protected Account.

         (c) The Master Servicer, upon the final disposition of any REO
Property, shall be entitled to reimbursement for any related unreimbursed
Advances, unreimbursed Servicing Advances or Servicing Fees from Liquidation
Proceeds received in connection with the final disposition of such REO Property;
provided, that any such unreimbursed Advances or Servicing Fees as well as any
unpaid Servicing Fees may be reimbursed or paid, as the case may be, prior to
final disposition, out of any net rental income or other net amounts derived
from such REO Property.

         Section 3.12 LIQUIDATION REPORTS.

         Upon the foreclosure of any Mortgaged Property or the acquisition
thereof by the Trust Fund pursuant to a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, the Master
Servicer shall submit a liquidation

                                      104
<PAGE>

report to the Trustee containing such information as shall be mutually
acceptable to the Master Servicer and the Trustee with respect to such Mortgaged
Property.

         Section 3.13 ANNUAL CERTIFICATE AS TO COMPLIANCE.

         (a) The Master Servicer will deliver to the Trustee and the Rating
Agencies not later than March 1, 2006 and not later than March 1 of each year
thereafter, a certificate of a Servicing Officer stating, as to each signatory
thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Master Servicer during the
preceding calendar year or portion thereof and of its performance under this
Agreement has been made under such officer's supervision, and (ii) to the best
of such officer's knowledge, based on such review, the Master Servicer has
fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement in all material respects
throughout such year or portion thereof, or, if there has been a default in the
fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such
officer and the nature and status thereof except for such defaults as such
officer in its good faith judgment believe to be immaterial.

         (b) Copies of such statements shall be provided to any
Certificateholder upon request by the Master Servicer or by the Trustee at the
Master Servicer's expense if the Master Servicer failed to provide such copies
(unless (i) the Master Servicer shall have failed to provide the Trustee with
such statement or (ii) the Trustee shall be unaware of the Master Servicer's
failure to provide such statement).

         Section 3.14 ANNUAL INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS' SERVICING
REPORT.

         Not later than March 1, 2006 and not later than March 1 of each year
thereafter, the Master Servicer at its expense shall cause a firm of independent
public accountants which is a member of the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants to furnish a statement to the Trustee and the Rating Agencies
to the effect that, with respect to the preceding calendar year, such firm has
examined certain documents and records relating to the Master Servicer's
servicing of mortgage loans of the same type as the Mortgage Loans pursuant to
servicing agreements substantially similar to this Agreement, which agreements
may include this Agreement, and that, on the basis of such an examination,
conducted substantially in compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation
Program for Mortgage Bankers, such firm is of the opinion that the Master
Servicer's servicing has been conducted in compliance with the agreements
examined pursuant to this Section 3.14, except for (i) such exceptions as such
firm shall believe to be immaterial,(ii) such other exceptions as shall be set
forth in such statement and (iii) such exceptions that the Uniform Single
Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers requires it to report. Copies of such
statements shall be provided to any Certificateholder upon request by the Master
Servicer or by the Trustee at the Master Servicer's expense if the Master
Servicer failed to provide such copies (unless (i) the Master Servicer shall
have failed to provide the Trustee with such statement or (ii) the Trustee shall
be unaware of the Master Servicer's failure to provide such statement).

         Section 3.15 BOOKS AND RECORDS.

         The Master Servicer shall be responsible for maintaining, and shall
maintain, a complete set of books and records for the Mortgage Loans which shall
be appropriately identified in the

                                      105
<PAGE>

Master Servicer's computer system to clearly reflect the ownership of the
Mortgage Loans by the Trust. In particular, the Master Servicer shall maintain
in its possession, available for inspection by the Trustee and shall deliver to
the Trustee upon demand, evidence of compliance with all federal, state and
local laws, rules and regulations. To the extent that original documents are not
required for purposes of realization of Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance
Proceeds, documents maintained by the Master Servicer may be in the form of
microfilm or microfiche or such other reliable means of recreating original
documents, including, but not limited to, optical imagery techniques so long as
the Master Servicer complies with the requirements of Accepted Servicing
Practices.

         The Master Servicer shall maintain with respect to each Mortgage Loan
and shall make available for inspection by the Trustee the related servicing
file during the time such Mortgage Loan is subject to this Agreement and
thereafter in accordance with applicable law.

         Section 3.16 REPORTS FILED WITH SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

         (a) The Depositor shall prepare or cause to be prepared the initial
current report on Form 8-K. Within 15 days after each Distribution Date, the
Trustee shall, in accordance with industry standards, file with the Commission
via the Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System ("EDGAR"), a Form 8 K
with a copy of the monthly statement to be furnished by the Trustee to the
Certificateholders for such Distribution Date as an exhibit thereto. Prior to
January 30 in each year commencing in 2006, the Trustee shall, in accordance
with industry standards, file a Form 15 Suspension Notice with respect to the
Trust Fund, if applicable. Prior to (i) March 15, 2006 and (ii) unless and until
a Form 15 Suspension Notice shall have been filed, prior to March 15 of each
year thereafter, the Master Servicer shall provide the Trustee with a Master
Servicer Certification, together with a copy of the annual independent
accountant's servicing report and annual statement of compliance to be delivered
by the Master Servicer pursuant to Sections 3.13 and 3.14. Prior to (i) March
31, 2006 and (ii) unless and until a Form 15 Suspension Notice shall have been
filed, March 31 of each year thereafter, the Trustee shall, subject to
subsection (d) below, file a Form 10-K, in substance conforming to industry
standards, with respect to the Trust Fund. Such Form 10-K shall include the
Master Servicer Certification and other documentation provided by the Master
Servicer pursuant to the second preceding sentence and the Form 10-K
certification signed by the Depositor. The Depositor hereby grants to the
Trustee a limited power of attorney to execute and file each such document on
behalf of the Depositor. Such power of attorney shall continue until either the
earlier of (i) receipt by the Trustee from the Depositor of written termination
of such power of attorney and (ii) the termination of the Trust Fund. The
Depositor agrees to promptly furnish to the Trustee, from time to time upon
request, such further information, reports and financial statements within its
control related to this Agreement, the Mortgage Loans as the Trustee reasonably
deems appropriate to prepare and file all necessary reports with the Commission.
The Trustee shall have no responsibility to file any items other than those
specified in this Section 3.16; provided, however, the Trustee will cooperate
with the Depositor in connection with any additional filings with respect to the
Trust Fund as the Depositor deems necessary under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Copies of all reports filed by the
Trustee under the Exchange Act shall be sent to: the Depositor c/o Bear, Stearns

Fees and expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with this Section 3.16
shall not be reimbursable from the Trust Fund.

         (b) In connection with the filing of any 10 K hereunder, the Trustee
shall sign a certification (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit K) for the
Depositor regarding certain aspects of the Form 10 K certification signed by the
Depositor, provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be required to
undertake an analysis of any accountant's report attached as an exhibit to the
Form 10 K.

         (c) The Trustee shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor 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 or based upon a
breach of the Trustee's obligations under this Section 3.16 or the Trustee's
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith.

         The Depositor 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 or based upon a
breach of the obligations of the Depositor under this Section 3.16 or the
Depositor's negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith.

         The Master Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and
the Depositor 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
arising out of or based upon a breach of the obligations of the Master Servicer
under this Section 3.16 or the Master Servicer's negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct in connection therewith.

         If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or
insufficient to hold harmless the Depositor or the Trustee, as applicable, then
the defaulting party, in connection with a breach of its respective obligations
under this Section 3.16 or its respective negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct in connection therewith, agrees that it shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by the other parties as a result of the losses, claims,
damages or liabilities of the other party in such proportion as is appropriate
to reflect the relative fault and the relative benefit of the Depositor on the
one hand and the Trustee on the other.

         (d) Nothing shall be construed from the foregoing subsections (a), (b)
and (c) to require the Trustee or any officer, director or Affiliate thereof to
sign any Form 10 K or any certification contained therein. Furthermore, the
inability of the Trustee to file a Form 10 K as a result of the lack of required
information as set forth in Section 3.16(a) or required signatures on such Form
10 K or any certification contained therein shall not be regarded as a breach by
the Trustee of any obligation under this Agreement.

         (e) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11.01, this Section 3.16
may be amended without the consent of the Certificateholders.

         Section 3.17 UCC.

         The Trustee agrees to file continuation statements for any Uniform
Commercial Code financing statements which the Seller has informed the Trustee
were filed on the Closing Date in connection with the Trust. The Seller shall
file any financing statements or amendments thereto required by any change in
the Uniform Commercial Code.

         Section 3.18 OPTIONAL PURCHASE OF CERTAIN MORTGAGE LOANS.

         With respect to any Mortgage Loans which as of the first day of a
Fiscal Quarter is delinquent in payment by 90 days or more or is an REO
Property, EMC shall have the right to purchase any Mortgage Loan from the Trust
which becomes 90 days or more delinquent or becomes an REO Property at a price
equal to the Purchase Price; provided however (i) that such Mortgage Loan is
still 90 days or more delinquent or is an REO Property as of the date of such
purchase and (ii) this purchase option, if not theretofore exercised, shall
terminate on the date prior to the last day of the related Fiscal Quarter. This
purchase option, if not exercised, shall not be thereafter reinstated unless the
delinquency is cured and the Mortgage Loan thereafter again becomes 90 days or
more delinquent or becomes an REO Property, in which case the option shall again
become exercisable as of the first day of the related Fiscal Quarter.

         In addition, EMC shall, at its option, purchase any Mortgage Loan from
the Trust if the first Due Date for such Mortgage Loan is subsequent to the Cut
off Date and the initial Scheduled Payment is not made within thirty (30) days
of such Due Date. Such purchase shall be made at a price equal to the Purchase
Price.

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

         Section 3.19 OBLIGATIONS OF THE MASTER SERVICER IN RESPECT OF MORTGAGE
RATES AND SCHEDULED 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 Rates, Scheduled Payments or Stated Principal Balances that were made
by the Master Servicer in a manner not consistent with the terms of the related
Mortgage Note and this Agreement, the Master 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 Master Servicer in respect of any such liability. Such indemnities
shall survive the termination or discharge of

                                      108
<PAGE>

this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3.19 shall not limit
the ability of the Master Servicer to seek recovery of any such amounts from the
related Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage, to
the extent permitted by applicable law.

         Section 3.20 RESERVE FUND; PAYMENTS TO AND FROM SWAP ADMINISTRATOR.

         (a) On or before the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish a
Reserve Fund on behalf of the Holders of the Certificates. On the Closing Date,
the Depositor shall cause an amount equal to $5,000 to be deposited into the
Reserve Fund. The Reserve Fund must be an Eligible Account. The Reserve Fund
shall be entitled "Reserve Fund, LaSalle Bank National Association as Trustee
for the benefit of holders of Bear Stearns Asset Backed Securities I LLC,
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2005-HE3". The Trustee shall deposit in the
Reserve Fund all payments received from the Swap Administrator that are payable
to the Trust Fund pursuant to the Swap Administration Agreement. On each
Distribution Date the Trustee shall remit such amounts received from the Swap
Administrator to the Holders of the Class A Certificates, Class M Certificates
and Class CE Certificates in the manner provided in clause (b) below. In
addition, on each Distribution Date as to which there is a Basis Risk Shortfall
Carry Forward Amount payable to any Class of Class A Certificates and/or Class M
Certificates, the Trustee shall deposit the amounts distributable pursuant to
clauses (C) and (D) of Section 5.04(a)(4) into the Reserve Fund, and the Trustee
has been directed by the Class CE Certificateholder to distribute such amounts
to the Holders of the Class A and/or Class M Certificates in the amounts and
priorities set forth in clauses (C) and (D) of Section 5.04(a)(4). Any amount
paid to the Holders of Class A Certificates and/or Class M Certificates pursuant
to the preceding sentence in respect of Basis Risk Shortfall Carry Forward
Amount shall be treated as distributed to the Class CE Certificateholder in
respect of the Class CE Certificates and paid by the Class CE Certificateholder
to the Holders of the Class A Certificates and/or Class M Certificates. Any
payments to the Holders of the Class A Certificates and/or Class M Certificates
in respect of Basis Risk Shortfall Carry Forward Amount, whether pursuant to the
second preceding sentence or pursuant to subsection (b) below, shall not be
payments with respect to a Regular Interest in a REMIC within the meaning of
Code Section 860(G)(a)(1).

         (b) Net Swap Payments and Swap Termination Payments (other than Swap
Termination Payments resulting from a Swap Provider Trigger Event) payable by
the Swap Administrator to the Swap Provider pursuant to the Swap Agreement shall
be deducted from Interest Funds, and to the extent of any such remaining amounts
due, from Principal Funds, prior to any distributions to the Certificateholders.
On each Distribution Date, such amounts will be remitted to the Swap
Administrator, first to make any Net Swap Payment owed to the Swap Provider
pursuant to the Swap Agreement for such Distribution Date, and second to make
any Swap Termination Payment (not due to a Swap Provider Trigger Event) owed to
the Swap Provider pursuant to the Swap Agreement for such Distribution Date. For
federal income tax purposes, such amounts paid to the Swap Administrator on each
Distribution Date shall first be deemed paid to the Swap Administrator in
respect of REMIC VI Regular Interest IO to the extent of the amount
distributable on such REMIC VI Regular Interest IO on such Distribution Date,
and any remaining amount shall be deemed paid to the Swap Administrator in
respect of a Class IO Distribution Amount. Any Swap Termination Payment
triggered by a Swap Provider Trigger Event owed to the Swap Provider pursuant to
the Swap Agreement will be subordinated to

                                      109
<PAGE>

distributions to the Holders of the Offered Certificates and shall be paid as
set forth under Section 5.04(a)(4).

         (c) Net Swap Payments payable by the Swap Provider to the Swap
Administrator pursuant to the Swap Agreement will be deposited by the Swap
Administrator into the Swap Account pursuant to the Swap Administration
Agreement. The Swap Administrator shall, to the extent provided in the Swap
Administration Agreement, remit amounts on deposit in the Swap Account to the
Trustee for deposit into the Reserve Fund. On each Distribution Date, to the
extent required, the Trustee shall withdraw such amounts from the Reserve Fund
to distribute to the Certificates in the following order of priority:

                  (i) FIRST, to each Class of Class A Certificates, on a PRO
         RATA basis, to pay Current Interest and any Interest Carry Forward
         Amount, on a PRO RATA basis, in each case to the extent not fully paid
         pursuant to Section 5.04(a)(1) to the extent due to the interest
         portion of a Realized Loss;

                  (ii) SECOND, sequentially to the Class M-1, Class M-2, Class
         M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5, Class M-6, Class M-7 and Class M-8
         Certificates, in that order, to pay Current Interest any Interest Carry
         Forward Amount, in each case to the extent not fully paid pursuant to
         Section 5.04(a)(1) to the extent due to the interest portion of a
         Realized Loss;

                  (iii) THIRD, to pay first, to the Class A Certificates, on a
         PRO RATA basis, based on the amount of Basis Risk Shortfall Carry
         Forward Amount for each such class, and second, sequentially to the
         Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5, Class M-6, Class
         M-7 and Class M-8 Certificates, in that order, any Basis Risk Shortfall
         Carry Forward Amounts for such Distribution Date; and

                  (iv) FOURTH, to pay as principal to the Class A Certificates
         and Class M Certificates as part of the Extra Principal Distribution
         Amount payable under Section 5.04(a)(2) until the Overcollateralization
         Target Amount has been reached, to the extent not paid from Excess
         Cashflow pursuant to Section 5.04(a)(2) for such Distribution Date. For
         the avoidance of doubt, any amounts distributable pursuant to this
         clause fourth shall be limited to rebuilding overcollateralization to
         the extent overcollateralization has been reduced through Realized
         Losses.

         Any amounts payable to the Trust Fund under the Swap Agreement as
described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iv) above shall not exceed an amount equal
to $69,930,000 in the aggregate.

         (d) The Reserve Fund is an "outside reserve fund" within the meaning of
Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h) and shall be an asset of the Trust Fund
but not an asset of any REMIC. The Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall be the
nominal owner of the Reserve Fund. The Class CE Certificateholder shall be the
beneficial owner of the Reserve Fund, subject to the power of the Trustee to
transfer amounts under Section 5.04. Amounts in the Reserve Fund shall, at the
direction of the Class CE Certificateholder, be invested in Permitted
Investments that mature no later than the Business Day prior to the next
succeeding Distribution Date. All net income and gain from such investments
shall be distributed to the Class CE Certificateholder,

                                      110
<PAGE>

not as a distribution in respect of any interest in any REMIC, on such
Distribution Date. All amounts earned on amounts on deposit in the Reserve Fund
shall be taxable to the Class CE Certificateholder. Any losses on such
investments shall be deposited in the Reserve Fund by the Class CE
Certificateholder out of its own funds immediately as realized. The Swap
Account, which is created and maintained by the Swap Administrator pursuant to
the Swap Administration Agreement, is an "outside reserve fund" within the
meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h) and shall not be an asset of
any REMIC created hereunder. The beneficial owner of the Swap Account is
identified, and other matters relating to the Swap Account are addressed, in the
Swap Administration Agreement.

         (e) The Trustee shall treat the Holders of Certificates (other than the
Class P, Class CE and Class R Certificates) as having entered into a notional
principal contract with respect to the Holders of the Class CE Certificates.
Pursuant to each such notional principal contract, all Holders of Certificates
(other than the Class P, Class CE and Class R Certificates) shall be treated as
having agreed to pay, on each Distribution Date, to the Holder 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 REMIC III Regular Interest
corresponding to such Class of Certificates over (ii) the amount payable on such
Class of Certificates on such Distribution Date (such excess, a "Class IO
Distribution Amount"). A Class IO Distribution Amount payable from interest
collections shall be allocated PRO RATA among such Certificates based on the
amount of interest otherwise payable to such Certificates, and a Class IO
Distribution Amount 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. In addition, pursuant to such notional principal
contract, the Holder of the Class CE Certificates shall be treated as having
agreed to pay Basis Risk Shortfall Carry Forward Amounts to the Holders of the
Certificates (other than the Class CE, Class P and Class R Certificates) in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any payments to the Certificates
from amounts deemed received in respect of this notional principal contract
shall not be payments with respect to a Regular Interest in a REMIC within the
meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(1). However, any payment from the Certificates
(other than the Class CE, Class P and Class R Certificates) of a Class IO
Distribution Amount shall be treated for tax purposes as having been received by
the Holders of such Certificates in respect of their interests in REMIC III and
as having been paid by such Holders to the Swap Administrator pursuant to the
notional principal contract. Thus, each Certificate (other than the Class P and
Class R Certificates) shall be treated as representing not only ownership of
Regular Interests in REMIC III, but also ownership of an interest in, and
obligations with respect to, a notional principal contract.

         Section 3.21 ADVANCING FACILITY.

         (a) The Master Servicer and/or the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Fund,
in either case, with the consent of the Master Servicer in the case of the
Trustee and, in each case, with notice to the Rating Agencies, is hereby
authorized to enter into a facility (the "Advancing Facility") with any Person
which provides that such Person (an "Advancing Person") may fund Advances and/or
Servicing Advances to the Trust Fund under this Agreement, although no such
facility shall reduce or otherwise affect the Master Servicer's obligation to
fund such Advances and/or Servicing Advances. If the Master Servicer enters into
such an Advancing Facility pursuant to this Section 3.21, upon reasonable
request of the Advancing Person, the Trustee shall execute a

                                      111
<PAGE>

letter of acknowledgment, confirming its receipt of notice of the existence of
such Advancing Facility. To the extent that an Advancing Person funds any
Advance or any Servicing Advance and provides the Trustee with notice
acknowledged by the Servicer that such Advancing Person is entitled to
reimbursement, such Advancing Person shall be entitled to receive reimbursement
pursuant to this Agreement for such amount to the extent provided in Section
3.21(b). Such notice from the Advancing Person must specify the amount of the
reimbursement, the Section of this Agreement that permits the applicable Advance
or Servicing Advance to be reimbursed and the section(s) of the Advancing
Facility that entitle the Advancing Person to request reimbursement from the
Trustee, rather than the Master Servicer, and include the Master Servicer's
acknowledgment thereto or proof of an Event of Default under the Advancing
Facility. The Trustee shall have no duty or liability with respect to any
calculation of any reimbursement to be paid to an Advancing Person and shall be
entitled to rely without independent investigation on the Advancing Person's
notice provided pursuant to this Section 3.21. An Advancing Person whose
obligations hereunder are limited to the funding of Advances and/or Servicing
Advances shall not be required to meet the qualifications of a Master Servicer
or a subservicer pursuant to Section 8.02 hereof and will not be deemed to be a
subservicer under this Agreement.

         (b) If an Advancing Facility is entered into, then the Master Servicer
shall not be permitted to reimburse itself therefor under Section 4.02(a)(ii),
Section 4.02(a)(iii) and Section 4.02(a)(v) prior to the remittance to the Trust
Fund, but instead the Master Servicer shall include such amounts in the
applicable remittance to the Trustee made pursuant to Section 4.02. The Trustee
is hereby authorized to pay to the Advancing Person, reimbursements for Advances
and Servicing Advances from the Distribution Account to the same extent the
Master Servicer would have been permitted to reimburse itself for such Advances
and/or Servicing Advances in accordance with Section 4.02(a)(ii), Section
4.02(a)(iii) or Section 4.02(a)(v), as the case may be, had the Master Servicer
itself funded such Advance or Servicing Advance. The Trustee is hereby
authorized to pay directly to the Advancing Person such portion of the Servicing
Fee as the parties to any advancing facility agree.

         (c) All Advances and Servicing Advances made pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement shall be deemed made and shall be reimbursed on a "first in-first
out" (FIFO) basis.

         (d) Any amendment to this Section 3.21 or to any other provision of
this Agreement that may be necessary or appropriate to effect the terms of an
Advancing Facility as described generally in this Section 3.21, including
amendments to add provisions relating to a successor master servicer, may be
entered into by the Trustee and the Master Servicer without the consent of any
Certificateholder, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement.

         Section 3.22 SPECIAL SERVICER.

         On any Distribution Date on which the servicer rating for the Master
Servicer is downgraded by a full rating category from its rating as of the
Closing Date by any of S&P, Moody's and Fitch and a Special Servicer Trigger is
in effect for such Distribution Date, the Majority Class CE Certificateholder
shall have the option to direct the Master Servicer to appoint a special
servicer to service all of the Mortgage Loans that are 90 days or more
Delinquent as of such Distribution Date ("Delinquent Loans"). In addition, on
each of the next three Distribution

                                      112
<PAGE>

Dates and for every Distribution Date occurring in the last month of each Fiscal
Quarter thereafter, if a Special Servicing Trigger is in effect the Majority
Class CE Certificateholder shall have the option to direct the Master Servicer
to transfer any additional Delinquent Loans as of such Distribution Dates to the
special servicer.

         The special servicer appointed at the direction of the Majority Class
CE Certificateholder shall be rated in the two highest special servicer rankings
by Moody's and such special servicer shall be a "Select Special Servicer" as set
forth in S&P's criteria. Such special servicer shall be entitled to any
Servicing Fees (including any related late payment charges) payable to the
Master Servicer with respect to any Delinquent Loan the special servicer is
servicing. In the event that a special servicer is appointed, the Trustee shall
provide prompt written notice to the Rating Agencies of such appointment. The
special servicer shall comply in all respects with, and shall service such
Delinquent Loans in accordance with, this Agreement to the same extent that the
Master Servicer is required to under this Agreement. The special servicer shall
indemnify the Master Servicer for any losses, liabilities or damages incurred by
the Master Servicer as a result of the special servicer's servicing of any
Delinquent Loan and shall reimburse the Master Servicer for any and all
Advances, out of pocket expenses and accrued Servicing Fees made with respect to
such Delinquent Loans transferred to the special servicer.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                                    ACCOUNTS

         Section 4.01 COLLECTION OF MORTGAGE LOAN PAYMENTS; PROTECTED ACCOUNT.

         (a) The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts in accordance
with customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage lenders in
the respective states in which the Mortgaged Properties are located to collect
all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans to
the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms
and provisions of any related Required Insurance Policy. Consistent with the
foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment
charge and (ii) extend the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a
period not greater than 125 days. In the event of any such arrangement, the
Master Servicer shall make Advances on the related Mortgage Loan during the
scheduled period in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage
Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements, and shall be
entitled to reimbursement therefor in accordance with Section 5.01. The Master
Servicer shall not be required to institute or join in litigation with respect
to collection of any payment (whether under a Mortgage, Mortgage Note or
otherwise or against any public or governmental authority with respect to a
taking or condemnation) if it reasonably believes that enforcing the provision
of the Mortgage or other instrument pursuant to which such payment is required
is prohibited by applicable law. In addition, if (x) a Mortgage Loan is in
default or default is imminent or (y) the Master Servicer delivers to the
Trustee a certification addressed to the Trustee, based on the advice of counsel
or certified public accountants, in either case, that have a national reputation
with respect to taxation of REMICs, that a modification of such Mortgage Loan
will not result in the imposition of taxes on or disqualify from REMIC status
any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV, REMIC V or REMIC VI, the Master
Servicer may, (A) amend the related Mortgage Note to reduce the Mortgage Rate
applicable thereto, provided that such reduced Mortgage Rate shall in no event
be lower than 5.00% with respect to any Mortgage Loan and (B) amend any Mortgage
Note to extend to the maturity thereof.

         The Master Servicer shall not waive (or permit a sub-servicer to waive)
any Prepayment Charge unless: (i) the enforceability thereof shall have been
limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership and other similar
laws relating to creditors' rights generally, (ii) the enforcement thereof is
illegal, or any local, state or federal agency has threatened legal action if
the prepayment penalty is enforced, (iii) the collectability thereof shall have
been limited due to acceleration in connection with a foreclosure or other
involuntary payment or (iv) such waiver is standard and customary in servicing
similar Mortgage Loans and relates to a default or a reasonably foreseeable
default and would, in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer, maximize
recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment
Charge and the related Mortgage Loan. If a Prepayment Charge is waived, but does
not meet the standards described above, then the Master Servicer is required to
pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge, for the benefit of the Class P
Certificates, by remitting such amount to the Trustee by the Distribution
Account Deposit Date.

                                      114
<PAGE>

         (b) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Protected
Account (which shall at all times be an Eligible Account) with a depository
institution in the name of the Master Servicer for the benefit of the Trustee on
behalf of the Certificateholders and designated "EMC Mortgage Corporation, as
Master Servicer, for the benefit of LaSalle Bank National Association, in trust
for registered holders of Bear Stearns Asset Backed Securities I LLC,
Asset-Backed Certificates Series 2005-HE3". The Master Servicer shall deposit or
cause to be deposited into the Protected Account on a daily basis within one
Business Day of receipt, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the
following payments and collections remitted by subservicers or received by it in
respect of the Mortgage Loans subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in
respect of principal and interest due on the Mortgage Loans on or before the
Cut-off Date) and the following amounts required to be deposited hereunder:

                  (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
         net of the Servicing Fee permitted under Section 3.10 and LPMI Fees, if
         any;

                  (iii) all Liquidation Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and
         Insurance Proceeds, other than proceeds to be applied to the
         restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the
         Mortgagor in accordance with the Master Servicer's normal servicing
         procedures;

                  (iv) any amount required to be deposited by the Master
         Servicer pursuant to Section 4.01(c) in connection with any losses on
         Permitted Investments;

                  (v) any amounts required to be deposited by the Master
         Servicer pursuant to Section 3.05;

                  (vi) any Prepayment Charges collected on the Mortgage Loans;
         and

                  (vii) any other amounts required to be deposited hereunder.

         The foregoing requirements for remittance by the Master Servicer into
the Protected 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 or assumption fees, if collected, need not be remitted by the
Master Servicer. In the event that the Master Servicer shall remit any amount
not required to be remitted and not otherwise subject to withdrawal pursuant to
Section 4.02, it may at any time withdraw or direct the institution maintaining
the Protected Account, to withdraw such amount from the Protected Account, any
provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Such withdrawal or direction
may be accomplished by delivering written notice thereof to the institution
maintaining the Protected Account, that describes the amounts deposited in error
in the Protected Account. The Master Servicer shall maintain adequate records
with respect to all withdrawals made pursuant to this Section. All funds
deposited in the Protected Account shall be held in trust for the
Certificateholders until withdrawn in accordance with Section 4.02.

                                      115
<PAGE>

         (c) The institution that maintains the Protected Account shall invest
the funds in the Protected Account, in the manner directed by the Master
Servicer, in Permitted Investments which shall mature not later than the
Remittance Date and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All
such Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Certificateholders. All income and gain net of any losses

         (a) The Master Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the
Protected Account for the following purposes:

                  (i) to pay itself (to the extent not previously paid to or
         withheld by the Master Servicer), as servicing compensation in
         accordance with Section 3.10, that portion of any payment of interest
         that equals the Servicing Fee for the period with respect to which such
         interest payment was made, and, as additional servicing compensation,
         those other amounts set forth in Section 3.10;

                  (ii) to reimburse the Master Servicer for Advances made by it
         with respect to the Mortgage Loans, provided, however, that the Master
         Servicer's right of reimbursement pursuant to this subclause (ii) shall
         be limited to amounts received on particular Mortgage Loan(s)
         (including, for this purpose, Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds
         and Subsequent Recoveries) that represent late recoveries of payments
         of principal and/or interest on such particular Mortgage Loan(s) in
         respect of which any such Advance was made;

                  (iii) to reimburse the Master Servicer for any previously made
         portion of a Servicing Advance or an Advance made by the Master
         Servicer that, in the good faith judgment of the Master Servicer, will
         not be ultimately recoverable by it from the related Mortgagor, any
         related Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or otherwise (a
         "Nonrecoverable Advance"), to the extent not reimbursed pursuant to
         clause (ii) or clause (v);

                  (iv) to reimburse the Master Servicer from Insurance Proceeds
         for Insured Expenses covered by the related Insurance Policy;

                  (v) to pay the Master Servicer any unpaid Servicing Fees and
         to reimburse it for any unreimbursed Servicing Advances, provided,
         however, that the Master Servicer's right to reimbursement for
         Servicing Advances pursuant to this subclause (v) with respect to any
         Mortgage Loan shall be limited to amounts received on particular
         Mortgage Loan(s) (including, for this purpose, Liquidation Proceeds,
         Insurance Proceeds,

                                      116

         Subsequent Recoveries and purchase and repurchase proceeds) that
         represent late recoveries of the payments for which such Servicing
         Advances were made;

                  (vi) to pay to the Seller, the Depositor or itself, Encore
         Credit Corp. or People's Choice, as applicable, with respect to each
         Mortgage Loan or property acquired in respect thereof that has been
         purchased pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.03 or 3.18 of this Agreement, all
         amounts received thereon and not taken into account in determining the
         related Stated Principal Balance of such repurchased Mortgage Loan;

                  (vii) to pay any expenses recoverable by the Master Servicer
         pursuant to Section 7.04 of this Agreement;

                  (viii) to withdraw pursuant to Section 4.01 any amount
         deposited in the Protected Account and not required to be deposited
         therein; and

                  (ix) to clear and terminate the Protected Account upon
         termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof.

         In addition, no later than 1:00 p.m. Eastern time on the Distribution
Account Deposit Date, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Protected
Account and remit to the Trustee the amount of Interest Funds for each Loan
Group (without taking into account any reduction in the amount of Interest Funds
attributable to the application of clause (c) of the definition thereof
contained in Article I of this Agreement) and Principal Funds for each Loan
Group collected, to the extent on deposit, and the Trustee shall deposit such
amount in the Distribution Account. In addition, on or before the Distribution
Account Deposit Date, the Master Servicer shall remit to the Trustee for deposit
in the Distribution Account any Advances or any payments of Compensating
Interest required to be made by the Master Servicer with respect to the Mortgage
Loans. Furthermore, on each Distribution Account Deposit Date, the Master
Servicer shall remit to the Trustee all Prepayment Charges collected by the
Master Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans during the related Prepayment
Period.

         The Master Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a
Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any
withdrawal from the Protected Account pursuant to subclauses (i), (ii), (iv),
(v), (vi) and (vii) above. Prior to making any withdrawal from the Protected
Account pursuant to subclause (iii), the Master Servicer shall deliver to the
Trustee an Officer's Certificate of a Servicing Officer indicating the amount of
any previous Advance or Servicing Advance determined by the Master Servicer to
be a Nonrecoverable Advance and identifying the related Mortgage Loan(s), and
their respective portions of such Nonrecoverable Advance.

         Section 4.03 COLLECTION OF TAXES; ASSESSMENTS AND SIMILAR ITEMS; ESCROW
ACCOUNTS.

         With respect to each Mortgage Loan, to the extent required by the
related Mortgage Note, the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or
more accounts (each, an "Escrow Account") and deposit and retain therein all
collections from the Mortgagors (or advances by the Master Servicer) for the
payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums or comparable items for
the account of the Mortgagors. Nothing herein shall require the Master Servicer
to compel a Mortgagor to establish an Escrow Account in violation of applicable
law.

                                      117
<PAGE>

         Withdrawals of amounts so collected from the Escrow Accounts may be
made only to effect timely payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance
premiums, condominium or PUD association dues, or comparable items, to reimburse
the Master Servicer out of related collections for any payments made with
respect to each Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 3.01 (with respect to taxes
and assessments and insurance premiums) and Section 3.05 (with respect to hazard
insurance), to refund to any Mortgagors for any Mortgage Loans any sums as may
be determined to be overages, to pay interest, if required by law or the terms
of the related Mortgage or Mortgage Note, to such Mortgagors on balances in the
Escrow Account or to clear and terminate the Escrow Account at the termination
of this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.01 thereof. The Escrow Account
shall not be a part of the Trust Fund.

         Section 4.04 DISTRIBUTION ACCOUNT.

         (a) The Trustee shall establish and maintain in the name of the
Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the Distribution Account as
a segregated trust account or accounts.

         (b) All amounts deposited to the Distribution Account shall be held by
the Trustee in the name of the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the
Certificateholders in accordance with the terms and provisions of this
Agreement.

         (c) The Distribution Account shall constitute an Eligible Account of
the Trust Fund segregated on the books of the Trustee and held by the Trustee
and the Distribution Account and the funds deposited therein shall not be
subject to, and shall be protected from, all claims, liens, and encumbrances of
any creditors or depositors of the Trustee (whether made directly, or indirectly
through a liquidator or receiver of the Trustee). The amount at any time
credited to the Distribution Account may be invested in the name of the Trustee,
in such Permitted Investments, or deposited in demand deposits with such
depository institutions, as determined by the Trustee. All Permitted Investments
shall mature or be subject to redemption or withdrawal on or before, and shall
be held until, the next succeeding Distribution Date if the obligor for such
Permitted Investment is the Trustee or, if such obligor is any other Person, the
Business Day preceding such Distribution Date. All investment earnings on
amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account or benefit from funds uninvested
therein from time to time shall be for the account of the Trustee. The Trustee
shall be permitted to withdraw or receive distribution of any and all investment
earnings from the Distribution Account on each Distribution Date. If there is
any loss on a Permitted Investment or demand deposit, the Trustee shall deposit
the amount of the loss in the Distribution Account not later than the applicable
Distribution Date on which the moneys so invested are required to be distributed
to the Certificateholders. With respect to the Distribution Account and the
funds deposited therein, the Trustee shall take such action as may be necessary
to ensure that the Certificateholders shall be entitled to the priorities
afforded to such a trust account (in addition to a claim against the estate of
the Trustee) as provided by 12 U.S.C. ss. 92a(e), and applicable regulations
pursuant thereto, if applicable, or any applicable comparable state statute
applicable to state chartered banking corporations.

                           DISTRIBUTIONS AND ADVANCES

         Section 5.01 ADVANCES.

         The Master Servicer shall, or shall cause the related subservicer
pursuant to the Subservicing Agreement to, make an Advance and deposit such
Advance in the Protected Account. Each such Advance shall be remitted to the
Distribution Account no later than 1:00 p.m. Eastern time on the Distribution
Account Deposit Date in immediately available funds. The Master Servicer shall
be obligated to make any such Advance only to the extent that such advance would
not be a Nonrecoverable Advance. If the Master Servicer shall have determined
that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or that a proposed Advance or a lesser
portion of such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master
Servicer shall deliver (i) to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders funds constituting the remaining portion of such Advance, if
applicable, and (ii) to the Depositor, each Rating Agency and the Trustee an
Officer's Certificate setting forth the basis for such determination. Subject to
the Master Servicer's recoverability determination, in the event that a
subservicer fails to make a required Advance, the Master Servicer shall be
required to remit the amount of such Advance to the Distribution Account.

         In lieu of making all or a portion of such Advance from its own funds,
the Master Servicer may (i) cause to be made an appropriate entry in its records
relating to the Protected Account that any Amount Held for Future Distributions
has been used by the Master Servicer in discharge of its obligation to make any
such Advance and (ii) transfer such funds from the Protected Account to the
Distribution Account. Any funds so applied and transferred shall be replaced by
the Master Servicer by deposit in the Distribution Account, no later than the
close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Distribution
Date on which such funds are required to be distributed pursuant to this
Agreement.

         The Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the
Protected Account for all Advances of its own funds made pursuant to this
Section as provided in Section 4.02. The obligation to make Advances with
respect to any Mortgage Loan shall continue until such Mortgage Loan is paid in
full or the related Mortgaged Property or related REO Property has been
liquidated or until the purchase or repurchase thereof (or substitution
therefor) from the Trust Fund pursuant to any applicable provision of this
Agreement, except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.01.

         Subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Article VIII
hereof, in the event the Master Servicer fails to make such Advance, then the
Trustee, as Successor Master Servicer, shall be obligated to make such Advance,
subject to the provisions of this Section 5.01.

         Section 5.02 COMPENSATING INTEREST PAYMENTS.

         In the event that there is a Prepayment Interest Shortfall arising from
a voluntary Principal Prepayment in part or in full by the Mortgagor with
respect to any Mortgage Loan, the

                                      120
<PAGE>

Master Servicer shall, to the extent of the Servicing Fee for such Distribution
Date, deposit into the Distribution Account, as a reduction of the Servicing Fee
for such Distribution Date, no later than the close of business on the Business
Day immediately preceding such Distribution Date, an amount equal to the
Prepayment Interest Shortfall; and in case of such deposit, the Master Servicer
shall not be entitled to any recovery or reimbursement from the Depositor, the
Trustee, the Seller, the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders.

         On each Distribution Date the Trustee shall be deemed to have allocated

         the Current Interest for each such Class.

         Any Excess Spread to the extent necessary to meet a level of
overcollateralization equal to the Overcollateralization Target Amount will be
the Extra Principal Distribution Amount and will be included as part of the
Principal Distribution Amount. Any Remaining Excess Spread together with any

         On any Distribution Date, any Relief Act Interest Shortfalls and any

                  (3) Notwithstanding the provisions of clauses (2)(A) and (B)
         above, if on any Distribution Date the Class A Certificates related to
         a Loan Group are no longer outstanding, the PRO RATA portion of the
         Principal Distribution Amount or the applicable Class A Principal
         Distribution Amount, as applicable, otherwise allocable to such Class A

         above; and

                  (4) Any Excess Cashflow shall be distributed in the following
         manner and order of priority:

                  (A) from any remaining Excess Cashflow, to the Class A

                  Realized Loss Amount allocated to each such Class;

                  (B) from any remaining Excess Cashflow, sequentially, to the

                  and Class M-8 Certificates, in that order, an amount equal to
                  the Interest Carry Forward Amount for each such Class for such
                  Distribution Date to the extent not fully paid pursuant to
                  Section 3.20(c);

                  (C) from any remaining Excess Cashflow otherwise distributable
                  to the Class CE Interest and the Class CE Certificates, to the
                  Reserve Fund to pay to the Class I-A, Class II-A and Class
                  III-A Certificates, any Basis Risk Shortfall Carry Forward
                  Amount for each such Class for such Distribution Date, on a
                  PRO RATA basis, based on the amount of the Basis Risk
                  Shortfall Carry Forward Amount for each such Class and to the
                  extent not paid pursuant to Section 3.20(c);

                  (D) from any remaining Excess Cashflow otherwise distributable
                  to the Class CE Interest and the Class CE Certificates, to the
                  Reserve Fund to pay to the Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3,

                  Shortfall Carry Forward Amount for each such Class for such
                  Distribution Date, if any, in each case to the extent not paid
                  pursuant to Section 3.20(c);

                  (E) from any remaining Excess Cashflow, to the Class A
                  Certificates, on a PRO RATA basis, based on the entitlement of
                  each such Class, and then sequentially to the Class M-1, Class
                  M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5, Class M-6, Class M-7 and
                  Class M-8 Certificates, in that order, the amount of Relief
                  Act Shortfalls and any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls
                  allocated to such Classes of Certificates, to the extent not
                  previously reimbursed;

                  (F) from any remaining Excess Cashflow, to the Swap
                  Administrator for payment to the Swap Provider, any Swap
                  Termination Payments due to a Swap Provider Trigger Event owed
                  by the Trust Fund;

                  (G) from any remaining Excess Cashflow, to the Class CE
                  Interest and Class CE Certificates, an amount equal to the
                  Class CE Distribution Amount reduced by amounts distributed in
                  clauses (C) and (D) above; and

                  (H) any remaining amounts to each of the Class R-1, Class R-2,
                  Class R-3 and Class RX Certificates, based on the related
                  REMIC in which such amounts remain.

         On each Distribution Date, all amounts in respect of Prepayment Charges
shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class P Interest and the Class P
Certificates, provided that such distributions shall not be in reduction of the
principal balance thereof. On the Distribution Date immediately following the
expiration of the latest Prepayment Charge term as identified on the Mortgage
Loan Schedule, any amount on deposit in the Class P Certificate Account will be
distributed to the Holders of the Class P Interest and the Class P Certificates
in reduction of the Certificate Principal Balance thereof.

                                      126
<PAGE>

         In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, on any Distribution Date
after the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balance of a
Class of Class A Certificates or Class M Certificates has been reduced to zero,
that Class of Certificates will be retired and will no longer be entitled to
distributions, including distributions in respect of Prepayment Interest
Shortfalls or Basis Risk Shortfall Carry Forward Amounts.

         (b) In addition to the foregoing distributions, with respect to any
Subsequent Recoveries, the Master Servicer shall deposit such funds into the
Protected Account pursuant to Section 4.01(b)(iii). If, after taking into
account such Subsequent Recoveries, the amount of a Realized Loss is reduced,
the amount of such Subsequent Recoveries will be applied to increase the
Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates with the highest
payment priority to which Realized Losses have been allocated, but not by more
than the amount of Realized Losses previously allocated to that Class of
Certificates pursuant to Section 5.05; provided, however, to the extent that no
reductions to a Certificate Principal Balance of any Class of Certificates
currently exists as the result of a prior allocation of a Realized Loss, such
Subsequent Recoveries will be applied as Excess Spread. The amount of any
remaining Subsequent Recoveries will be applied to increase the Certificate
Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates with the next highest payment
priority, up to the amount of such Realized Losses previously allocated to that
Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 5.05, and so on. Holders of such
Certificates will not be entitled to any payment in respect of Current Interest
on the amount of such increases for any Interest Accrual Period preceding the
Distribution Date on which such increase occurs. Any such increases shall be
applied to the Certificate Principal Balance of each Certificate of such Class
in accordance with its respective Percentage Interest.

         (c) Subject to Section 10.02 hereof respecting the final distribution,
on each Distribution Date the Trustee shall make distributions to each
Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date either by wire transfer
in immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank or other
entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Holder has so notified
the Trustee at least 5 Business Days prior to the related Record Date, or, if
not, by check mailed by first class mail to such Certificateholder at the
address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, but subject to Section 10.02 hereof respecting the final
distribution, distributions with respect to Certificates registered in the name
of a Depository shall be made to such Depository in immediately available funds.

         (d) On or before 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on the fifth Business Day
immediately preceding each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall deliver
a report to the Trustee in electronic form (or by such other means as the Master
Servicer and the Trustee may agree from time to time) containing such data and
information, as agreed to by the Master Servicer and the Trustee such as to
permit the Trustee to prepare the Monthly Statement to Certificateholders and to
make the required distributions for the related Distribution Date.

         Section 5.05 ALLOCATION OF REALIZED LOSSES.

         (a) All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any REMIC II
Regular Interest pursuant to Section 5.05(c) on the Mortgage Loans shall be
allocated by the Trustee on each Distribution Date as follows: first, to Excess
Spread; second, to the Class CE Interest and Class CE Certificates, until the
Certificate Principal Balance or Uncertificated Principal Balance

                                      127
<PAGE>

thereof, as applicable, has been reduced to zero; third, to the Class M-8
Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced
to zero; fourth, to the Class M-7 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal
Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; fifth, to the Class M-6 Certificates,
until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; sixth,
to the Class M-5 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof
has been reduced to zero; seventh, to the Class M-4 Certificates, until the
Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; eighth, to the
Class M-3 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been
reduced to zero; ninth, to the Class M-2 Certificates, until the Certificate
Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; tenth, to the Class M-1
Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced
to zero; eleventh, to the related Class or Classes of Class A Certificates, on a
PRO RATA basis, until the Certificate Principal Balances thereof have been
reduced to zero; and twelfth, to the unrelated Class or Classes of Class A
Certificates, on a PRO RATA basis, until the Certificate Principal Balances
thereof have been reduced to zero; provided, however, any such Realized Losses
otherwise allocable to the Class II-A-1 Certificates shall be allocated first to
the Class II-A-2 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof
has been reduced to zero, and then to the Class II-A-1 Certificates, and any
such Realized Losses otherwise allocable to the Class III-A-1 Certificates shall
be allocated first to the Class III-A-2 Certificates, until the Certificate
Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, and then to the Class
III-A-1 Certificates. All Realized Losses to be allocated to the Certificate
Principal Balances of all Classes on any Distribution Date shall be so allocated
after the actual distributions to be made on such date as provided above. All
references above to the Certificate Principal Balance of any Class of
Certificates shall be to the Certificate Principal Balance of such Class
immediately prior to the relevant Distribution Date, before reduction thereof by
any Realized Losses, in each case to be allocated to such Class of Certificates,
on such Distribution Date.

         (b) Any allocation of Realized Losses to a Class of Certificates on any
Distribution Date shall be made by reducing the Certificate Principal Balance
thereof by the amount so allocated; any allocation of Realized Losses to a Class
CE Interest and Class CE Certificates shall be made by reducing the amount
otherwise payable in respect thereof pursuant to clause (G) of Section
5.04(a)(4). No allocations of any Realized Losses shall be made to the
Certificate Principal Balance or Uncertificated Principal Balance, as
applicable, of the Class P Interest and the Class P Certificates.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such allocation of any Realized Loss
shall be made on a Distribution Date to any Class of Certificates to the extent
that such allocation would result in the reduction of the aggregate Certificate
Principal Balance of all the Certificates as of such Distribution Date, after
giving effect to all distributions and prior allocations of Realized Losses on
the Mortgage Loans on such date, to an amount less than the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of all of the Mortgage Loans as of the first day of the month
of such Distribution Date (such limitation, the "Loss Allocation Limitation").
In addition in no event will the Certificate Principal Balance of any
Certificate be reduced more than once in respect of any particular amount both
(i) allocable to such Certificate in respect of Realized Losses and (ii) payable
as principal to the Holder of such Certificate from Remaining Excess Spread.

         As used herein, an allocation of a Realized Loss on a "PRO RATA basis"
among two or more specified Classes of Certificates means an allocation on a PRO
RATA basis, among the various

                                      128
<PAGE>

Classes so specified, to each such Class of Certificates on the basis of their
then outstanding Certificate Principal Balances prior to giving effect to
distributions to be made on such Distribution Date. All Realized Losses and all
other losses allocated to a Class of Certificates hereunder will be allocated
among the Certificates of such Class in proportion to the Percentage Interests
evidenced thereby.

         (c) (i) All Realized Losses on the Group I Loans shall be allocated on
each Distribution Date to REMIC I Regular Interest I-1-A through REMIC I Regular
Interest I-60-B, starting with the lowest numerical denomination until such
REMIC I Regular Interest has been reduced to zero, provided that, for REMIC I

         The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on
behalf of the Trustee by an authorized 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 Trustee, 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 authentication and delivery. No
Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid
for any purpose, unless there appears on such Certificate the countersignature
of the Trustee by manual signature, and such countersignature upon any
Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such
Certificate has been duly countersigned and delivered hereunder. All
Certificates shall be dated the date of their countersignature. On the Closing
Date, the Trustee shall authenticate the Certificates to be issued at the
written direction of the Depositor, or any affiliate thereof.

         The Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Trustee on

         (a) The Trustee shall maintain, or cause to be maintained in accordance
with the provisions of Section 6.09 hereof, a Certificate Register for the Trust
Fund in which, subject to the provisions of subsections (b) and (c) below and to
such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for
the registration of Certificates and of Transfers and exchanges of Certificates
as herein provided. Upon surrender for registration of Transfer of any
Certificate, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of the same
Class and of like aggregate Percentage Interest.

         At the option of a Certificateholder, Certificates may be exchanged for
other Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and evidencing
the same aggregate Percentage Interest upon surrender of the Certificates to be
exchanged at the office or agency of the Trustee. Whenever any Certificates are
so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate, and
deliver the Certificates that the Certificateholder making the exchange is
entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for registration
of Transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of Transfer
in form satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by the Holder thereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing.

         No service charge to the Certificateholders shall be made for any
registration of Transfer or exchange of Certificates, but payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any Transfer or exchange of Certificates may be required.

         All Certificates surrendered for registration of Transfer or exchange
shall be canceled and subsequently destroyed by the Trustee in accordance with
the Trustee's customary procedures.

         (b) Subject to Subsection 6.07 and, in the case of any Global
Certificate or Private Certificate upon the satisfaction of the conditions set
forth below, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at
any office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose, the Trustee
shall sign, countersign and shall deliver, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, a new Certificate of a like Class and aggregate
Percentage Interest, but bearing a different number.

         (c) Subject to Subsection 6.02(g), so long as a Global Certificate of
such Class is outstanding and is held by or on behalf of the Depository,
transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Certificate, or transfers by
Holders of Individual Certificates of such Class to transferees that take
delivery in the form of beneficial interests in the Global Certificate, may be
made only in accordance with this Subsection 6.02(c) and in accordance with the
rules of the Depository:

                  (i) In the case of a beneficial interest in the Global
         Certificate being transferred to an Institutional Accredited Investor,
         such transferee shall be required to take delivery in the form of an
         Individual Certificate or Certificates and the Trustee shall register
         such transfer only upon compliance with the provisions of Subsection
         6.02(h).

                                      139

         (ii) In the case of a beneficial interest in a Class of Global
     Certificates being transferred to a transferee that takes delivery in the
     form of an Individual Certificate or Certificates of such Class, except as
     set forth in clause (i) above, the Trustee shall register such transfer
     only upon compliance with the provisions of Subsection 6.02(h).

                  (iii) In the case of an Individual Certificate of a Class
         being transferred to a transferee that takes delivery in the form of a
         beneficial interest in a Global Certificate of such Class, the Trustee
         shall register such transfer if the transferee has provided the Trustee
         with a Rule 144A and Related Matters Certificate or comparable evidence
         as to its QIB status.

                  (iv) No restrictions shall apply with respect to the transfer
         or registration of transfer of a beneficial interest in the Global
         Certificate of a Class to a transferee that takes delivery in the form
         of a beneficial interest in the Global Certificate of such Class;
         provided that each such transferee shall be deemed to have made such
         representations and warranties contained in the Rule 144A and Related
         Matters Certificate as are sufficient to establish that it is a QIB.

         (d) Subject to Subsection 6.02(g), an exchange of a beneficial interest
in a Global Certificate of a Class for an Individual Certificate or Certificates
of such Class, an exchange of an Individual Certificate or Certificates of a

exchange of an Individual Certificate or Certificates of a Class for another
Individual Certificate or Certificates of such Class (in each case, whether or
not such exchange is made in anticipation of subsequent transfer, and, in the
case of the Global Certificate of such Class, so long as such Certificate is
outstanding and is held by or on behalf of the Depository) may be made only in
accordance with this Subsection 6.02(d) and in accordance with the rules of the
Depository:

                  (i) A Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Certificate
         of a Class may at any time exchange such beneficial interest for an
         Individual Certificate or Certificates of such Class.

                  (ii) A Holder of an Individual Certificate or Certificates of
         a Class may exchange such Certificate or Certificates for a beneficial
         interest in the Global Certificate of such Class if such holder
         furnishes to the Trustee a Rule 144A and Related Matters Certificate or
         comparable evidence as to its QIB status.

                  (iii) A Holder of an Individual Certificate of a Class may
         exchange such Certificate for an equal aggregate principal amount of
         Individual Certificates of such Class in different authorized
         denominations without any certification.

         (e) (i) Upon acceptance for exchange or transfer of an Individual
Certificate of a Class for a beneficial interest in a Global Certificate of such
Class as provided herein, the Trustee shall cancel such Individual Certificate
and shall (or shall request the Depository to) endorse on the schedule affixed
to the applicable Global Certificate (or on a continuation of such schedule
affixed to the Global Certificate and made a part thereof) or otherwise make in
its books and records an appropriate notation evidencing the date of such
exchange or transfer and

                                      140
<PAGE>

an increase in the certificate balance of the Global Certificate equal to the
certificate balance of such Individual Certificate exchanged or transferred
therefor.

                  (i) Upon acceptance for exchange or transfer of a beneficial
         interest in a Global Certificate of a Class for an Individual
         Certificate of such Class as provided herein, the Trustee shall (or
         shall request the Depository to) endorse on the schedule affixed to
         such Global Certificate (or on a continuation of such schedule affixed
         to such Global Certificate and made a part thereof) or otherwise make
         in its books and records an appropriate notation evidencing the date of
         such exchange or transfer and a decrease in the certificate balance of
         such Global Certificate equal to the certificate balance of such
         Individual Certificate issued in exchange therefor or upon transfer
         thereof.

         (f) Any Individual Certificate issued in exchange for or upon transfer
of another Individual Certificate or of a beneficial interest in a Global
Certificate shall bear the applicable legends set forth in Exhibit A-2.

         (g) Subject to the restrictions on transfer and exchange set forth in
this Section 6.02, the Holder of any Individual Certificate may transfer or
exchange the same in whole or in part (in an initial certificate balance equal
to the minimum authorized denomination set forth in Section 6.01 above or any
integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof) by surrendering such Certificate
at the Corporate Trust Office, or at the office of any transfer agent, together
with an executed instrument of assignment and transfer satisfactory in form and
substance to the Trustee in the case of transfer and a written request for
exchange in the case of exchange. The Holder of a beneficial interest in a
Global Certificate may, subject to the rules and procedures of the Depository,
cause the Depository (or its nominee) to notify the Trustee in writing of a
request for transfer or exchange of such beneficial interest for an Individual
Certificate or Certificates. Following a proper request for transfer or
exchange, the Trustee shall, within five Business Days of such request made at
the Corporate Trust Office, sign, countersign and deliver at the Corporate Trust
Office, to the transferee (in the case of transfer) or Holder (in the case of
exchange) or send by first class mail at the risk of the transferee (in the case
of transfer) or Holder (in the case of exchange) to such address as the
transferee or Holder, as applicable, may request, an Individual Certificate or
Certificates, as the case may require, for a like aggregate Percentage Interest
and in such authorized denomination or denominations as may be requested. The
presentation for transfer or exchange of any Individual Certificate shall not be
valid unless made at the Corporate Trust Office by the registered Holder in
person, or by a duly authorized attorney-in-fact.

         (h) No Transfer of a Private Certificate shall be made unless such
Transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the
registration requirements under the Securities Act and such state securities
laws. In the event that a Transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption
from the Securities Act and such laws, in order to assure compliance with the
Securities Act and such laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such
Transfer and such Certificateholder's prospective transferee shall each certify
to the Trustee in writing the facts surrounding the Transfer by (x)(i) the
delivery to the Trustee by the Certificateholder desiring to effect such
transfer of a certificate substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit D (the
"Transferor Certificate") and (ii) the delivery by the Certificateholder's
prospective transferee of (A) a letter

                                      141

in substantially the form of Exhibit E (the "Investment Letter") if the
prospective transferee is an Institutional Accredited Investor or (B) a letter

Certificate") if the prospective transferee is a QIB or (y) there shall be
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee that
such Transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act,
which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Seller,
the Master Servicer or the Trustee. Notwithstanding the provisions of the
immediately preceding sentence, no restrictions shall apply with respect to the
transfer or registration of transfer of a beneficial interest in any Certificate
that is a Global Certificate of a Class to a transferee that takes delivery in
the form of a beneficial interest in the Global Certificate of such Class
provided that each such transferee shall be deemed to have made such
representations and warranties contained in the Rule 144A and Related Matters
Certificate as are sufficient to establish that it is a QIB. The Depositor shall
provide to any Holder of a Private Certificate and any prospective transferee
designated by any such Holder, information regarding the related Certificates
and the Mortgage Loans and such other information as shall be necessary to
satisfy the condition to eligibility set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) for Transfer
of any such Certificate without registration thereof under the Securities Act
pursuant to the registration exemption provided by Rule 144A. The Trustee and
the Master Servicer shall cooperate with the Depositor in providing the Rule
144A information referenced in the preceding sentence, including providing to
the Depositor such information regarding the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans
and other matters regarding the Trust Fund as the Depositor shall reasonably
request to meet its obligation under the preceding sentence. Each Holder of a
Private Certificate desiring to effect such Transfer shall, and does hereby
agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Seller and the Master
Servicer 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.

         Prior to the termination of the Swap Agreement, no Transfer of a Class
A Certificate or Class M Certificate (other than a Class M-7 Certificate or
Class M-8 Certificate) shall be made unless either (i) the Trustee and the
Master Servicer shall have received a representation from the transferee of such
Certificate acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee
and the Master Servicer, to the effect that such transferee is not an employee
benefit plan subject to Section 406 of ERISA or a plan subject to Section 4975
of the Code (either a "Plan"), or a Person acting on behalf of a Plan or using
the assets a Plan, or (ii) the transferee provides a representation, or is
deemed to represent in the case of the Global Certificate that the proposed
transfer or holding of such Certificate are eligible for exemptive relief under
an individual or class prohibited transaction exemption, including, but not
limited to, Prohibited Transaction Exemption ("PTE") 84-14, PTE 91-38, PTE 90-1,
PTE 95-60 or PTE 96-23.

         Subsequent to the termination of the Swap Agreement, each beneficial
owner of a Class M Certificate (other than a Class M-7 Certificate or Class M-8
Certificate) or any interest therein shall be deemed to have represented, by
virtue of its acquisition or holding of that certificate or interest therein,
that either (i) it is not a Plan or investing with "Plan Assets", (ii) it has
acquired and is holding such certificate in reliance on the Exemption, and that
it understands that there are certain conditions to the availability of the
Exemption, including that the certificate must be rated, at the time of
purchase, not lower than "BBB-" (or its equivalent) by S&P, Fitch or Moody's,
and the certificate is so rated or (iii) (1) it is an insurance company, (2) the
source of funds used to acquire or hold the certificate or interest therein is
an "insurance company general

                                      142
<PAGE>

account," as such term is defined in PTE 95-60, and (3) the conditions in
Sections I and III of PTE 95-60 have been satisfied.

         Neither the Trustee nor the Master Servicer will be required to
monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with the transfer restrictions
with respect to the Global Certificates. Any attempted or purported transfer of
any Certificate in violation of the provisions of Subsections (a) or (b) above
shall be void ab initio and such Certificate shall be considered to have been
held continuously by the prior permitted Certificateholder. Any transferor of
any Certificate in violation of such provisions, shall indemnify and hold
harmless the Trustee and the Master Servicer from and against any and all
liabilities, claims, costs or expenses incurred by the Trustee or the Master
Servicer as a result of such attempted or purported transfer. The Trustee shall
have no liability for transfer of any such Global Certificates in or through
book-entry facilities of any Depository or between or among Depository
Participants or Certificate Owners made in violation of the transfer
restrictions set forth herein.

         No Transfer of a Class CE, Class P, Residual, Class M-7 or Class M-8
Certificate shall be made unless either (i) the transferee of such Certificate
provides a representation, or is deemed to represent in the case of a Global
Certificate, to the Trustee and the Master Servicer acceptable to and in form
and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Master Servicer, to the effect
that such transferee is not a Plan, or a Person acting on behalf of a Plan or
using the assets of a Plan, or (ii) in the case of any such Certificate
presented for registration in the name of a Plan, or a trustee of a Plan or any
other person acting on behalf of a Plan, the Trustee shall have received an
Opinion of Counsel for the benefit of the Trustee and the Master Servicer and on
which they may rely, satisfactory to the Trustee, to the effect that the
purchase and holding of such Certificate are permissible under applicable law,
will not result in any prohibited transactions under ERISA or Section 4975 of
the Code and will not subject the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Depositor
to any obligation in addition to those expressly undertaken in this Agreement,
which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Master
Servicer or the Depositor, or (iii) in the case of a Class M-7 Certificate or
Class M-8 Certificate, the transferee provides a representation, or is deemed to
represent in the case of the Global Certificate, or an opinion of counsel to the
effect that the proposed transfer or holding of such Class M-7 Certificate or
Class M-8 Certificate and the servicing, management and operation of the Trust
and its assets: (I) will not result in any prohibited transaction which is not
covered under PTE 84-14, PTE 91-38, PTE 90-1, PTE 95-60 or PTE 96-23 and (II)
will not give rise to any obligation on the part of the Depositor, the Master
Servicer or the Trustee in addition to those expressly undertaken in this
Agreement. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, any purported
transfer of an ERISA Restricted Certificate to or on behalf of a Plan without
the delivery of the Opinion of Counsel as described above shall be void and of
no effect; provided that the restriction set forth in this sentence shall not be
applicable if there has been delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
meeting the requirements of clause (ii) of the first sentence of this paragraph.
Neither the Trustee nor the Master Servicer shall be required to monitor,
determine or inquire as to compliance with the transfer restrictions with
respect to any ERISA Restricted Certificate that is a Book-Entry Certificate,
and neither the Trustee nor the Master Servicer shall have any liability for
transfers of any such Book-Entry Certificates made through the book-entry
facilities of any Depository or between or among participants of the Depository
or Certificate Owners made in violation of the transfer restrictions set forth
herein. Neither the Trustee nor the Master Servicer shall be under any liability
to any Person for any registration of

                                      143
<PAGE>

transfer of any ERISA Restricted Certificate that is in fact not permitted by
this Section 6.02(h) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the
Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the
provisions of this Agreement. The Trustee shall be entitled, but not obligated,
to recover from any Holder of any ERISA Restricted Certificate that was in fact
a Plan or a Person acting on behalf of a Plan at the time it became a Holder or,
at such subsequent time as it became a Plan or Person acting on behalf of a
Plan, all payments made on such ERISA Restricted Certificate at and after either
such time. Any such payments so recovered by the Trustee shall be paid and
delivered by the Trustee to the last preceding Holder of such Certificate that
is not a Plan or Person acting on behalf of a Plan.

                  (i) 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 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 Trustee of any change
                  or impending change in its status as a Permitted Transferee.

                           (ii) No Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate
                  may be registered on the Closing Date or thereafter
                  transferred, and the Trustee shall not register the Transfer
                  of any Residual Certificate unless, in addition to the
                  certificates required to be delivered to the Trustee under
                  subparagraph (b) above, the Trustee shall have been furnished
                  with an affidavit (a "Transfer Affidavit") of the initial
                  owner or the proposed transferee in the form attached hereto
                  as Exhibit C.

                           (iii) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership
                  Interest in a Residual Certificate shall agree (A) to obtain a
                  Transfer Affidavit from any other Person to whom such Person
                  attempts to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual
                  Certificate, (B) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit from any
                  Person for whom such Person is acting as nominee, trustee or
                  agent in connection with any Transfer of a Residual
                  Certificate and (C) not to Transfer its Ownership Interest in
                  a Residual Certificate or to cause the Transfer of an
                  Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any other
                  Person if it has actual knowledge that such Person is not a
                  Permitted Transferee.

                           (iv) Any attempted or purported Transfer of any
                  Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of
                  the provisions of this Section 6.02(i) shall be absolutely
                  null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported
                  transferee. If any purported transferee shall become a Holder
                  of a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of
                  this Section 6.02(i), then the last preceding Permitted
                  Transferee shall be restored to all rights as Holder thereof
                  retroactive to the date of registration of Transfer of such
                  Residual Certificate. The Trustee shall be under no liability
                  to any Person for any registration of Transfer of a Residual
                  Certificate that is in fact not permitted by Section 6.02(h)
                  and this Section 6.02(i) or for making any payments due on
                  such 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 after
                  receipt of the related Transfer Affidavit. The Trustee shall
                  be entitled but not obligated to recover from

                                      144
<PAGE>

                  any Holder of a Residual Certificate that was in fact not a
                  Permitted Transferee at the time it became a Holder or, at
                  such subsequent time as it became other than a Permitted
                  Transferee, all payments made on such Residual Certificate at
                  and after either such time. Any such payments so recovered by
                  the Trustee shall be paid and delivered by the Trustee to the
                  last preceding Permitted Transferee of such Certificate.

                           (v) The Master Servicer shall make available within
                  60 days of written request from the Trustee, all information
                  necessary to compute any tax imposed under Section 860E(e) of
                  the Code as a result of a Transfer of an Ownership Interest in
                  a Residual Certificate to any Holder who is not a Permitted
                  Transferee.

         The restrictions on Transfers of a Residual Certificate set forth in
this Section 6.02(i) shall cease to apply (and the applicable portions of the
legend on a Residual Certificate may be deleted) with respect to Transfers
occurring after delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel addressed to
the Trustee, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee,
the Seller or the Master Servicer to the effect that the elimination of such
restrictions will not cause REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV, REMIC V or
REMIC VI, as applicable, to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the
Certificates are outstanding or result in the imposition of any tax on the Trust
Fund, a Certificateholder or another Person. Each Person holding or acquiring
any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate hereby consents to any
amendment of this Agreement that, based on an Opinion of Counsel addressed to
the Trustee and furnished to the Trustee, is reasonably necessary (a) to ensure
that the record ownership of, or any beneficial interest in, a Residual
Certificate is not transferred, directly or indirectly, to a Person that is not
a Permitted Transferee and (b) to provide for a means to compel the Transfer of
a Residual Certificate that is held by a Person that is not a Permitted
Transferee to a Holder that is a Permitted Transferee.

         (j) The Class CE Certificate shall not be held by more than one Holder.

         (k) The preparation and delivery of all certificates and opinions
referred to above in this Section 6.02 shall not be an expense of the Trust
Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor, the Seller or the Master Servicer.

         Section 6.03 MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN CERTIFICATES.

         If (a) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee, or the
Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft
of any Certificate and of the ownership thereof and (b) there is delivered to
the Trustee 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 that such
Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Trustee shall
execute, authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like
Class, tenor and Percentage Interest. In connection with the issuance of any new
Certificate under this Section 6.03, the Trustee may require the payment of a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed
in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of
the Trustee) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to
this Section 6.03 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of
ownership in the Trust Fund, as if originally issued, whether or not the

                                      145
<PAGE>

lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time. All
Certificates surrendered to the Trustee under the terms of this Section 6.03
shall be canceled and destroyed by the Trustee in accordance with its standard
procedures without liability on its part.

         Section 6.04 PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS.

         The Trustee and any agent of the Trustee may treat the person in whose
name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the
purpose of receiving distributions as provided in this Agreement and for all
other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Trustee nor any agent of the Trustee
shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

         Section 6.05 ACCESS TO LIST OF CERTIFICATEHOLDERS' NAMES AND ADDRESSES.

         If three or more Certificateholders (a) request such information in
writing from the Trustee, (b) state that such Certificateholders desire to
communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under
this Agreement or under the Certificates, and (c) provide a copy of the
communication that such Certificateholders propose to transmit or if the
Depositor or the Master Servicer shall request such information in writing from
the Trustee, then the Trustee shall, within ten Business Days after the receipt
of such request, provide the Depositor, the Master Servicer or such
Certificateholders at such recipients' expense the most recent list of the
Certificateholders of the Trust Fund held by the Trustee, if any. The Depositor
and every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agree that
the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any
such information as to the list of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless
of the source from which such information was derived.

         Section 6.06 BOOK-ENTRY CERTIFICATES.

         The Regular Certificates (other than the Class M-7, Class M-8, Class CE
and Class P Certificates), upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form
of one or more typewritten Certificates representing the Book-Entry
Certificates, to be delivered to the Depository by or on behalf of the
Depositor. Such Certificates shall initially be registered on the Certificate
Register in the name of the Depository or its nominee, and no Certificate Owner
of such Certificates will receive a definitive certificate representing such
Certificate Owner's interest in such Certificates, except as provided in Section
6.08. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Certificates ("Definitive
Certificates") have been issued to the Certificate Owners of such Certificates
pursuant to Section 6.08:

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

         (b) the Depositor and the Trustee may deal with the Depository and the
Depository Participants for all purposes (including the making of distributions)
as the authorized representative of the respective Certificate Owners of such
Certificates;

         (c) registration of the Book-Entry Certificates may not be transferred
by the Trustee except to another Depository;

         (d) the rights of the respective Certificate Owners of such
Certificates shall be exercised only through the Depository and the Depository
Participants and shall be limited to

                                      146
<PAGE>

those established by law and agreements between the Owners of such Certificates
and the Depository and/or the Depository Participants. Pursuant to the
Depository Agreement, unless and until Definitive Certificates are issued
pursuant to Section 6.08, the Depository will make book-entry transfers among
the Depository Participants and receive and transmit distributions of principal
and interest on the related Certificates to such Depository Participants;

         (e) the Depository may collect its usual and customary fees, charges
and expenses from its Depository Participants;

         (f) the Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon
information furnished by the Depository with respect to its Depository
Participants; and

         (g) to the extent that the provisions of this Section conflict with any
other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section shall
control.

         For purposes of any provision of this Agreement requiring or permitting
actions with the consent of, or at the direction of, Certificateholders
evidencing a specified percentage of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of
any Class of Certificates, such direction or consent may be given by Certificate
Owners (acting through the Depository and the Depository Participants) owning
Book-Entry Certificates evidencing the requisite percentage of principal amount
of such Class of Certificates.

         The Private Certificates shall initially be held in fully registered
certificated form. If at any time the Holders of all of the Certificates of one
or more such Classes request that the Trustee cause such Class to become Global
Certificates, the Depositor (with the assistance of the Trustee) will take such
action as may be reasonably required to cause the Depository to accept such
Class or Classes for trading if it may legally be so traded. If at anytime there
are to be Global Certificates, the Global Certificates shall be delivered to the
Depository by the Depositor or deposited with the Trustee as custodian for the
Depository.

         All transfers by Certificate Owners of such respective Classes of
Book-Entry Certificates and any Global 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 it represents or of
brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the Depository's
normal procedures.

         Section 6.07 NOTICES TO DEPOSITORY.

         Whenever any notice or other communication is required to be given to
Certificateholders of a Class with respect to which Book-Entry Certificates have
been issued, unless and until Definitive Certificates shall have been issued to
the related Certificate Owners, the Trustee shall give all such notices and
communications to the Depository.

         Section 6.08 DEFINITIVE CERTIFICATES.

         If, after Book-Entry Certificates have been issued with respect to any
Certificates, (a) the Depositor or the Depository advises the Trustee that the
Depository is no longer willing or able

                                      147
<PAGE>

to discharge properly its responsibilities under the Depository Agreement with
respect to such Certificates and the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified
successor or (b) the Depositor, at its sole option, advises the Trustee that it
elects to terminate the book-entry system with respect to such Certificates
through the Depository, then the Trustee shall notify all Certificate Owners of
such Certificates, through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such event
and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to applicable Certificate
Owners requesting the same. The Depositor shall provide the Trustee with an
adequate inventory of certificates to facilitate the issuance and transfer of
Definitive Certificates. Upon surrender to the Trustee of any such Certificates
by the Depository, accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository
for registration, the Trustee shall countersign and deliver such Definitive
Certificates. Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee shall be liable for any
delay in delivery of such instructions and each may conclusively rely on, and
shall be protected in relying on, such instructions.

         In addition, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
each Certificate Owner materially adversely affected thereby may at its option
request a Definitive Certificate evidencing such Certificate Owner's Voting
Rights in the related Class of Certificates. In order to make such request, such
Certificate Owner shall, subject to the rules and procedures of the Depository,
provide the Depository or the related Depository Participant with directions for
the Trustee to exchange or cause the exchange of the Certificate Owner's
interest in such Class of Certificates for an equivalent Voting Right in fully
registered definitive form. Upon receipt by the Trustee of instructions from the
Depository directing the Trustee to effect such exchange (such instructions to
contain information regarding the Class of Certificates and the Certificate
Principal Balance being exchanged, the Depository Participant account to be
debited with the decrease, the registered Holder of and delivery instructions
for the definitive Certificate, and any other information reasonably required by
the Trustee), (i) the Trustee shall instruct the Depository to reduce the
related Depository Participant's account by the aggregate Certificate Principal
Balance of the definitive Certificate, (ii) the Trustee shall execute,
authenticate and deliver, in accordance with the registration and delivery
instructions provided by the Depository, a definitive Certificate evidencing
such Certificate Owner's Voting Rights in such Class of Certificates and (iii)
the Trustee shall execute and authenticate a new Book-Entry Certificate
reflecting the reduction in the Certificate Principal Balance of such Class of
Certificates by the amount of the definitive Certificates.

         Section 6.09 MAINTENANCE OF OFFICE OR AGENCY.

         The Trustee will maintain or cause to be maintained at its expense an
office or offices or agency or agencies at the Corporate Trust Office where
Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The
Trustee initially designates its Corporate Trust Office, as the office for such
purposes. The Trustee will give prompt written notice to the Certificateholders
of any change in such location of any such office or agency.

                      THE DEPOSITOR AND THE MASTER SERVICER

         Section 7.01 LIABILITIES OF THE DEPOSITOR AND THE MASTER SERVICER.

         Each of the Depositor, and the Master Servicer shall be liable in
accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed
upon and undertaken by it herein.

         Section 7.02 MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION OF THE DEPOSITOR OR THE MASTER
SERVICER.

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

merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger or
consolidation to which the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be a party, or
any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor or the Master Servicer,
shall be the successor of the Depositor or the Master Servicer hereunder,
without the execution or filing of any paper or further act on the part of any
of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

         Section 7.03 INDEMNIFICATION OF THE TRUSTEE AND THE MASTER SERVICER.

         (a) The Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Indemnified Persons
for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense
(including reasonable legal fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred on their
part that may be sustained in connection with, arising out of, or relating to,
any claim or legal action (including any pending or threatened claim or legal
action) relating to this Agreement, including any powers of attorney delivered
pursuant to this Agreement, the Custodial Agreement or the Certificates (i)
related to the Master Servicer's failure to perform its duties in compliance
with this Agreement (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be
otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) or (ii) incurred by reason of
the Master Servicer's willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the
performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of
obligations and duties hereunder, provided, in each case, that with respect to
any such claim or legal action (or pending or threatened claim or legal action),
the Trustee shall have given the Master Servicer and the Seller written notice
thereof promptly after the Trustee shall have with respect to such claim or
legal action knowledge thereof; provided, however that the failure to give such
notice shall not relieve the Master Servicer of its indemnification obligations
hereunder. This indemnity shall survive the resignation or removal of the
Trustee or Master Servicer and the termination of this Agreement.

                                      149
<PAGE>

         (b) The Seller will indemnify any Indemnified Person for any loss,

or the Certificateholders for taking any action or for refraining from taking
any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment;
provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Depositor, the
Master Servicer or any such Person against any breach of warranties or
representations made herein or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by
reason of such Person's willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in
the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and
duties hereunder.

         (b) The Depositor, the Master Servicer and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Depositor and the Master Servicer may rely in good
faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by
any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.

         (c) The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Custodian and
any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Trustee, the Custodian shall be indemnified by the Trust and held harmless
thereby against any loss, liability or expense (including reasonable legal fees
and disbursements of counsel) incurred on their part that may be sustained in
connection with, arising out of, or related to, any claim or legal action
(including any pending or threatened claim or legal action) relating to this
Agreement, the Custodial Agreement or the Certificates, other than (i) in the
case of the Master Servicer, (x) any such loss, liability or expense related to
the Master Servicer's failure to perform its duties in compliance with this
Agreement (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise
reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) or (y) any such loss, liability or
expense incurred by reason of the Master Servicer's willful misfeasance, bad
faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties hereunder, or by reason
of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder, (ii) in the case of
the Trustee, any such loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of the
Trustee's willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its
duties hereunder, or by reason of its reckless disregard of obligations and
duties hereunder and (iii) in the case of the Custodian, any such loss,
liability or expense incurred by reason of the Custodian's willful misfeasance,
bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties under the Custodial
Agreement, or by reason of its reckless disregard of obligations and duties
thereunder.

         (d) Neither the Depositor nor the Master Servicer shall be under any
obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not
incidental to its duties under this Agreement and that in its opinion may
involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, the Master Servicer
may in its discretion, with the consent of the Trustee (which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld), undertake any such action which it may deem necessary
or

                                      150
<PAGE>

desirable with respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the
parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such
event, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting
therefrom (expect any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of reckless
disregard of obligations and duties hereunder) shall be expenses, costs and
liabilities of the Trust Fund, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be
reimbursed therefor out of the Protected Account as provided by Section 4.02.
Nothing in this Subsection 7.04(d) shall affect the Master Servicer's obligation
to service and administer the Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article III.

         (e) In taking or recommending any course of action pursuant to this
Agreement, unless specifically required to do so pursuant to this Agreement, the
Master Servicer shall not be required to investigate or make recommendations
concerning potential liabilities which the Trust might incur as a result of such
course of action by reason of the condition of the Mortgaged Properties but
shall give notice to the Trustee if it has notice of such potential liabilities.

         Section 7.05 MASTER SERVICER NOT TO RESIGN. Except as provided in
Section 7.07, the Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and
duties hereby imposed on it except (i) with the prior consent of the Trustee
(which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld) or (ii) upon a determination
that any such duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law
and such impermissibility cannot be cured. Any such determination permitting the
resignation of the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel,
addressed to and delivered to, the Trustee. No such resignation by the Master
Servicer shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor to the Master
Servicer reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee shall have assumed the
responsibilities and obligations of the Master Servicer in accordance with
Section 8.02 hereof. The Trustee shall notify the Rating Agencies of the
resignation of the Master Servicer.

         Section 7.06 SUCCESSOR MASTER SERVICER. In connection with the
appointment of any successor Master Servicer or the assumption of the duties of
the Master Servicer, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation
of such successor master servicer out of payments on the Mortgage Loans as the
Trustee and such successor master servicer shall agree. If the successor master
servicer does not agree that such market value is a fair price, such successor
master servicer shall obtain two quotations of market value from third parties
actively engaged in the servicing of single family mortgage loans. In no event
shall the compensation of any successor master servicer exceed that permitted
the Master Servicer hereunder without the consent of all of the
Certificateholders.

         Section 7.07 SALE AND ASSIGNMENT OF MASTER SERVICING. The Master
Servicer may sell and assign its rights and delegate its duties and obligations
in its entirety as Master Servicer under this Agreement; provided, however,
that: (i) the purchaser or transferee accepting such assignment and delegation
(a) shall be a Person which shall be qualified to service mortgage loans for
Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac; (b) shall have a net worth of not less than
$10,000,000 (unless otherwise approved by each Rating Agency pursuant to clause
(ii) below); (c) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (as evidenced
in a writing signed by the Trustee); and (d) shall execute and deliver to the
Trustee an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Trustee, which contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual
performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or
observed by it as

                                      151
<PAGE>

master servicer under this Agreement, any custodial agreement from and after the
effective date of such agreement; (ii) each Rating Agency shall be given prior
written notice of the identity of the proposed successor to the Master Servicer
and each Rating Agency's rating of the Certificates in effect immediately prior
to such assignment, sale and delegation will not be downgraded, qualified or
withdrawn as a result of such assignment, sale and delegation, as evidenced by a
letter to such effect delivered to the Master Servicer, the Trustee; and (iii)
the Master Servicer assigning and selling the master servicing shall deliver to
the Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the
Trustee, each stating that all conditions precedent to such action under this
Agreement have been completed and such action is permitted by and complies with
the terms of this Agreement. No such assignment or delegation shall affect any
liability of the Master Servicer arising prior to the effective date thereof.

                     DEFAULT; TERMINATION OF MASTER SERVICER

         Section 8.01 EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

         "Event of Default," wherever used herein, means any one of the
following events:

                  (i) any failure by the Master Servicer to remit to the Trustee
         any amounts received or collected by the Master Servicer in respect of
         the Mortgage Loans and required to be remitted by it hereunder (other
         than any Advance), which failure shall continue unremedied for one
         Business Day after the date on which written notice of such failure
         shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee or the
         Depositor, or to the Trustee and the Master Servicer by the Holders of
         Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights
         evidenced by the Certificates;

                  (ii) any failure by the Master Servicer to observe or perform
         in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the
         part of the Master Servicer contained in this Agreement or any breach
         of a representation or warranty by the Master Servicer, which failure
         or breach shall continue unremedied for a period of 60 days after the
         date on which written notice of such failure shall have been given to
         Master Servicer by the Trustee or the Depositor, or to the Trustee and
         the Master Servicer by the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less
         than 25% of the Voting Rights evidenced by the Certificates;

                  (iii) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory
         authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a
         receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt,
         marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for
         the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered
         against the Master Servicer and such decree or order shall have
         remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60
         consecutive days;

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

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

                  (vi) the Master Servicer assigns or delegates its duties or
         rights under this Agreement in contravention of the provisions
         permitting such assignment or delegation under Sections 7.05 or 7.07;
         or

                                      153
<PAGE>

                  (vii) The Master Servicer fails to deposit, or cause to be
         deposited, in the Distribution Account any Advance (other than a
         Nonrecoverable Advance) by 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the
         Distribution Account Deposit Date.

         If an Event of Default shall occur, then, and in each and every such
case, so long as such Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Trustee
may, and at the direction of the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less
than 25% of the Voting Rights evidenced by the Certificates, the Trustee shall
in the case of any Event of Default described in clauses (i) through (vii)
above, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer (with a copy to each Rating
Agency), terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer
under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof,
other than its rights as a Certificateholder hereunder. On or after the receipt
by the Master Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the
Master Servicer hereunder, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or
otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee, or any successor
appointed pursuant to Section 8.02 (a "Successor Master Servicer"). Such
Successor Master Servicer shall thereupon if such Successor Master Servicer is a
successor to the Master Servicer, make any Advance required by Article V,
subject, in the case of the Trustee, to Section 8.02. The Trustee is hereby
authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the terminated
Master Servicer, as attorney- in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and
other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or
appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to
complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of any Mortgage Loans and
related documents, or otherwise. Unless expressly provided in such written
notice, no such termination shall affect any obligation of the Master Servicer
to pay amounts owed pursuant to Article VII or Article IX. The Master Servicer
agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master
Servicer's responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation,
the transfer to the applicable Successor Master Servicer of all cash amounts
which shall at the time be credited to the Protected Account maintained pursuant
to Section 4.02, or thereafter be received with respect to the applicable
Mortgage Loans. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies of the
occurrence of an Event of Default known to the Trustee.

         Notwithstanding any termination of the activities of the Master
Servicer hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive, out of any
late collection of a Scheduled Payment on a Mortgage Loan that was due prior to
the notice terminating the Master Servicer's rights and obligations as Master
Servicer hereunder and received after such notice, that portion thereof to which
the Master Servicer would have been entitled pursuant to Sections 4.02 and to
receive any other amounts payable to the Master Servicer hereunder the
entitlement to which arose prior to the termination of its activities hereunder.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default described in
clause (vii) of this Section 8.01 shall occur, the Trustee shall, by notice in
writing to the Master Servicer, which may be delivered by telecopy, immediately
terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer thereafter
arising under this Agreement, but without prejudice to any rights it may have as
a Certificateholder or to reimbursement of Advances and other advances of its
own funds, and the Trustee shall act as provided in Section 8.02 to carry out
the duties of the Master Servicer, including the obligation to make any Advance
the nonpayment of which was an Event

                                      154
<PAGE>

of Default described in clause (vii) of this Section 8.01. Any such action
taken by the Trustee must be prior to the distribution on the relevant
Distribution Date.

         Section 8.02 TRUSTEE TO ACT; APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR.

         On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of
termination pursuant to Section 8.01 hereof the Trustee shall automatically
become the successor to the Master Servicer with respect to the transactions set
forth or provided for herein and after a transition period (not to exceed 90
days), shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities
relating thereto placed on the Master Servicer by the terms and provisions
hereof; provided, however that, pursuant to Article V hereof, the Trustee in its
capacity as successor Master Servicer shall be responsible for making any
Advances required to be made by the Master Servicer immediately upon the
termination of the Master Servicer and any such Advance shall be made on the
Distribution Date on which such Advance was required to be made by the
predecessor Master Servicer. Effective on the date of such notice of
termination, as compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to all
compensation, reimbursement of expenses and indemnification that the Master
Servicer would have been entitled to if it had continued to act hereunder,
provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be (i) liable for any acts or
omissions of the Master Servicer, (ii) obligated to make Advances if it is
prohibited from doing so under applicable law, (iii) responsible for expenses of
the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 2.03 or (iv) obligated to deposit losses
on any Permitted Investment directed by the Master Servicer. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it
is prohibited by applicable law from making Advances pursuant to Article V or if
it is otherwise unable to so act, appoint, or petition a court of competent
jurisdiction to appoint, any established mortgage loan servicing institution the
appointment of which does not adversely affect the then current rating of the
Certificates by each Rating Agency as the successor to the Master Servicer
hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties
or liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder. Any Successor Master Servicer
shall (i) be an institution that is a Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac approved
seller/servicer in good standing, that has a net worth of at least $15,000,000,
(ii) be acceptable to the Trustee (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld) and (iii) be willing to act as successor servicer of any Mortgage
Loans under this Agreement, and shall have executed and delivered to the
Depositor and the Trustee an agreement accepting such delegation and assignment,
that contains an assumption by such Person of the rights, powers, duties,
responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Master Servicer (other than
any liabilities of the Master Servicer hereof incurred prior to termination of
the Master Servicer under Section 8.01 or as otherwise set forth herein), with
like effect as if originally named as a party to this Agreement, provided that
each Rating Agency shall have acknowledged in writing that its rating of the
Certificates in effect immediately prior to such assignment and delegation will
not be qualified or reduced as a result of such assignment and delegation. If
the Trustee assumes the duties and responsibilities of the Master Servicer in
accordance with this Section 8.02, the Trustee shall not resign as Master
Servicer until a Successor Master Servicer has been appointed and has accepted
such appointment. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer
hereunder, the Trustee, unless the Trustee is prohibited by law from so acting,
shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with such
appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the
compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans or otherwise as
it and such successor shall agree; provided that no such compensation unless
agreed to by the Certificateholders shall be in excess of that permitted the

                                      155
<PAGE>

Master Servicer hereunder. The Trustee and such successor shall take such
action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any
such succession. Neither the Trustee nor any other Successor Master Servicer
shall be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of any failure to make, or
any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof or any
failure to perform, or any delay in performing, any duties or responsibilities
hereunder, in either case caused by the failure of the Master Servicer to
deliver or provide, or any delay in delivering or providing, any cash,
information, documents or records to it.

         The costs and expenses of the Trustee in connection with the
termination of the Master Servicer, appointment of a Successor Master Servicer
and, if applicable, any transfer of servicing, including, without limitation,
all costs and expenses associated with the complete transfer of all servicing
data and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as
may be required by the Trustee to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the
servicing data or otherwise to enable the Trustee or the Successor Master
Servicer to service the related Mortgage Loans properly and effectively, to the
extent not paid by the terminated Master Servicer, shall be payable to the
Trustee pursuant to Section 9.05. Any successor to the Master Servicer as
successor servicer under any Subservicing Agreement shall give notice to the
applicable Mortgagors of such change of servicer and shall, during the term of
its service as successor servicer maintain in force the policy or policies that
the Master Servicer is required to maintain pursuant to Section 3.08.

         Section 8.03 NOTIFICATION TO CERTIFICATEHOLDERS.

         (a) Upon any termination of or appointment of a successor to the Master
Servicer, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to
Certificateholders and to each Rating Agency.

         (b) Within 60 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the
Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Certificateholders notice of each such
Event of Default hereunder actually known to a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived.

         Section 8.04 WAIVER OF DEFAULTS.

         The Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Certificateholders, within 60
days after the occurrence of any Event of Default actually known to a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee, unless such Event of Default shall have been
cured, notice of each such Event of Default hereunder known to the Trustee. The
Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the Voting Rights may,
on behalf of all Certificateholders, waive any default by the Master Servicer in
the performance of its obligations hereunder and the consequences thereof,
except a default in the making of or the causing to be made of any required
distribution on the Certificates. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such
default shall be deemed to cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising
therefrom shall be deemed to have been timely remedied for every purpose of this
Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or
impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.
The Trustee shall give notice of any such waiver to the Rating Agencies.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                             CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

         Section 9.01 DUTIES OF TRUSTEE.

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

         (b) Upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements,
opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments which are specifically
required to be furnished to the Trustee pursuant to any provision of this
Agreement, the Trustee shall examine them to determine whether they are in the
form required by this Agreement; provided, however, 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
Master Servicer; provided, further, that the Trustee shall not be responsible
for the accuracy or verification of any calculation provided to it pursuant to
this Agreement.

         (c) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall make monthly
distributions and the final distribution to the Certificateholders from funds in
the Distribution Account as provided in Sections 5.04 and 10.01 herein.

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

                  (i) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, and after
         the curing or waiver of all such Events of Default which may have
         occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined
         solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall
         not be liable except for the performance of their respective 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 to the
         requirements of this Agreement;

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

                                      157
<PAGE>

                  (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 directions of the Holders of Certificates
         evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate Voting Rights of the
         Certificates (or such other percentage as specifically set forth
         herein), if such action or non-action relates to the time, method and
         place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the
         Trustee or exercising any trust or other power conferred upon the
         Trustee under this Agreement;

                  (iv) The Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be
         deemed to have notice or knowledge of any default or Event of Default
         unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge
         thereof. In the absence of such knowledge, the Trustee may conclusively
         assume there is no such default or Event of Default;

                  (v) The Trustee shall not in any way be liable by reason of
         any insufficiency in any Account held by or in the name of Trustee
         unless it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a
         non-appealable judgment that the Trustee's negligence or willful
         misconduct was the primary cause of such insufficiency (except to the
         extent that the Trustee is obligor and has defaulted thereon);

                  (vi) 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; and

                  (vii) None of the Master Servicer, the Seller, the Depositor
         or the Trustee shall be responsible for the acts or omissions of the
         other, it being understood that this Agreement shall not be construed
         to render them partners, joint venturers or agents of one another.

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 Master Servicer.

         (e) All funds received by the Trustee and required to be deposited in
the Distribution Account pursuant to this Agreement will be promptly so
deposited by the Trustee.

         Section 9.02 CERTAIN MATTERS AFFECTING THE TRUSTEE.

         (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.01:

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

                                      158
<PAGE>

                  (ii) The Trustee may consult with counsel and any advice of
         such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete
         authorization and protection with respect to 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 trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement,
         other than its obligation to give notices pursuant to this Agreement,
         or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in
         relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any of the
         Certificateholders pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless
         such Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable
         security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which
         may be incurred therein or thereby. Nothing contained herein shall,
         however, relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of
         an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has
         actual knowledge (which has not been cured or waived), to exercise such
         of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the
         same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person
         would exercise under the circumstances in the conduct of his own
         affairs;

                  (iv) The Trustee shall not be liable in its individual
         capacity 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) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation
         into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate,
         statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent,
         order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless requested in
         writing to do so by Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than
         25% of the aggregate Voting Rights of the Certificates and provided
         that 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 reasonably assured
         to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this
         Agreement. The Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such
         expense or liability as a condition to taking any such action. The
         reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by the
         Certificateholders requesting the investigation;

                  (vi) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers
         hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or through
         Affiliates, agents or attorneys; provided, however, that the Trustee
         may not appoint any paying agent to perform any paying agent functions
         under this Agreement without the express written consent of the Master
         Servicer, which consents will not be unreasonably withheld. The Trustee
         shall not be liable or responsible for the misconduct or negligence of
         any of the Trustee's agents or attorneys or paying agent appointed
         hereunder by the Trustee with due care and, when required, with the
         consent of the Master Servicer;

                  (vii) Should the Trustee deem the nature of any action
         required on its part to be unclear, the Trustee may require prior to
         such action that it be provided by the Depositor with reasonable
         further instructions; 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

                                      159
<PAGE>

         not be accountable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct
         in the performance of any such act;

                  (viii) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or
         surety with respect to the execution of the trust created hereby or the
         powers granted hereunder, except as provided in Subsection 9.07; and

                  (ix) The Trustee shall not have any duty to conduct any
         affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition
         requiring the repurchase of any Mortgage Loan by any Person pursuant to
         this Agreement, or the eligibility of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of
         this Agreement.

         (b) The Trustee is hereby directed by the Depositor to execute and
deliver the Swap Administration Agreement. Amounts payable by the Trustee on any
Distribution Date to the Swap Administrator shall be paid by the Trustee as
provided herein. The Trustee in its individual capacity shall have no
responsibility for any of the undertakings, agreements or representations with
respect to the Swap Agreement or the Swap Administration Agreement, including,
without limitation, for making any payments thereunder.

         It is acknowledged and agreed that the Person serving as Trustee
hereunder shall also serve as Swap Administrator under the Swap Administration
Agreement and the Swap Agreement. The Swap Administrator is hereby directed by
the Depositor to execute and deliver the Swap Administration Agreement and the
Swap Agreement, and to make the representations required therein. The Swap
Administrator shall not have any liability for any failure or delay in payments
to the Trust which are required under the Swap Administration Agreement where
such failure or delay is due to the failure or delay of the Swap Provider in
making such payment to the Swap Administrator. The Swap Administrator shall be
entitled to be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust from and against any
and all losses, claims, expenses or other liabilities that arise by reason of or
in connection with the performance or observance by the Swap Administrator of
its duties or obligations under the Swap Agreement or the Swap Administration
Agreement, except to the extent that the same is due to the Swap Administrator's
gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud. Any Person appointed as successor
trustee pursuant to Section 9.09 shall also be required to serve as successor
Swap Administrator under the Swap Agreement and the Swap Administration
Agreement.

         Section 9.03 TRUSTEE NOT LIABLE FOR CERTIFICATES OR MORTGAGE LOANS.

         The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the
signature and countersignature of the Trustee on the Certificates) shall be
taken as the statements of the Depositor, and the Trustee shall not have any
responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representation as to
the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates (other than the signature and
countersignature of the Trustee on the Certificates) or of any Mortgage Loan
except as expressly provided in Sections 2.02 and 2.06 hereof; provided,
however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the Trustee, or the Custodian on
its behalf, of the obligation to review the Mortgage Files pursuant to Section
2.02 of this Agreement. The Trustee's signature and countersignature (or
countersignature of its agent) on the Certificates shall be solely in its
capacity as Trustee and shall not constitute the Certificates an obligation of
the Trustee in any

                                      160
<PAGE>

other capacity. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application
by the Depositor of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of such
Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Depositor
with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Subject to Section 2.06, the Trustee shall
not be responsible for the legality or validity of this Agreement or any
document or instrument relating to this Agreement, the validity of the execution
of this Agreement or of any supplement hereto or instrument of further
assurance, or the validity, priority, perfection or sufficiency of the security
for the Certificates issued hereunder or intended to be issued hereunder. 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 Fund or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed to
Certificateholders, under this Agreement. The Trustee shall not be responsible
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 or to record this Agreement.

         Section 9.04 TRUSTEE MAY OWN CERTIFICATES.

         The Trustee in its individual capacity or in any capacity other than as
Trustee hereunder may become the owner or pledgee of any Certificates with the
same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee and may otherwise deal with
the parties hereto.

         Section 9.05 TRUSTEE'S FEES AND EXPENSES.

         The Trustee will be entitled to recover from the Distribution Account
pursuant to Section 4.05, the Trustee Fee, all reasonable out of pocket
expenses, disbursements and advances and the expenses of the Trustee in
connection with any Event of Default (or anything related thereto, including any
determination that an Event of Default does or does not exist), any breach of
this Agreement or any claim or legal action (including any pending or threatened
claim or legal action) incurred or made by the Trustee in the administration of
the trusts hereunder (including the reasonable compensation, expenses and
disbursements of its counsel) except any such expense, disbursement or advance
as may arise from its negligence or intentional misconduct or which is the
responsibility of the Certificateholders hereunder. If funds in the Distribution
Account are insufficient therefor, the Trustee shall recover such expenses,
disbursements or advances from the Depositor and the Depositor hereby agrees to
pay such expenses, disbursements or advances. Such compensation and
reimbursement obligation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard
to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust.

         Section 9.06 ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS FOR TRUSTEE.

         The Trustee and any successor Trustee shall during the entire duration
of this Agreement be a state bank or trust company or a national banking
association organized and doing business under the laws of a state or the United
States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust
powers, having a combined capital and surplus and undivided profits of at least
$50,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority
and rated "BBB" or higher by Fitch with respect to their long-term rating and
rated "BBB" or higher by S&P and "Baa2" or higher by Moody's with respect to any
outstanding long-term unsecured

                                      161
<PAGE>

unsubordinated debt, and, in the case of a successor Trustee other than pursuant
to Section 9.10, rated in one of the two highest long-term debt categories by
each Rating Agency (at least "AA-" in the case of S&P) or otherwise acceptable
to, each of the Rating Agencies and have a short-term debt rating of at least
"A-1" from S&P, or otherwise acceptable to, S&P. The Trustee shall not be an
Affiliate of the Master Servicer. If the Trustee 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 9.06
the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its
total equity capital (combined capital and surplus) as set forth in its most
recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall
cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.06, the
Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in
Section 9.08.

         Section 9.07 INSURANCE.

         The Trustee, at its own expense, shall at all times maintain and keep
in full force and effect: (i) fidelity insurance, (ii) theft of documents
insurance and (iii) forgery insurance (which may be collectively satisfied by a
"Financial Institution Bond" and/or a "Bankers' Blanket Bond"); provided, that
such insurance may be provided through self-insurance so long as the Trustee is
rated "A" or better by S&P and "A1" or better by Moody's. All such insurance
shall be in amounts, with standard coverage and subject to deductibles, as are
customary for insurance typically maintained by banks or their affiliates which
act as custodians for investor-owned mortgage pools. A certificate of an officer
of the Trustee as to the Trustee's compliance with this Section 9.07 shall be
furnished to any Certificateholder upon reasonable written request.

         Section 9.08 RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL OF TRUSTEE.

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

         If at any time (i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of Section 9.06 hereof and shall fail to resign after
written request thereto by the Depositor, (ii) the Trustee shall become
incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged as 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, or
(iii)(A) a tax is imposed with respect to the Trust Fund by any state in which
the Trustee or the Trust Fund is located, (B) the imposition of such tax would
be avoided by the appointment of a different trustee and (C) the Trustee fails
to indemnify the Trust Fund against such tax, then the Depositor or the Master
Servicer may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written
instrument, in multiple copies, a copy of which instrument shall be delivered to
the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the successor trustee.

                                      162
<PAGE>

         The Holders evidencing at least 51% of the Voting Rights of each Class
of Certificates may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor
trustee by written instrument or instruments, in multiple copies, signed by such
Holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which
instruments shall be delivered by the successor trustee to the Master Servicer,
the Trustee so removed and the successor trustee so appointed. Notice of any
removal of the Trustee shall be given to each Rating Agency by the Trustee or
successor trustee.

         Any resignation or removal of LaSalle Bank National Association as
Trustee shall also result in the resignation or removal, as applicable, of
LaSalle Bank National Association as Swap Administrator. Any resignation or
removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of
the provisions of this Section 9.08 shall become effective upon acceptance of
appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 9.09 hereof and upon
acceptance of appointment by a successor swap administrator under the Swap
Administration Agreement.

         Section 9.09 SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE.

         Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 9.08 hereof
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, to its predecessor
trustee, the Master Servicer 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 the like effect as if originally
named as trustee herein.

         No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section 9.09 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall
be eligible under the provisions of Section 9.07 hereof and its appointment
shall not adversely affect the then current rating of the Certificates.

         Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in
this Section 9.09, the successor trustee shall mail notice of the succession of
such trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates. If the successor trustee
fails to mail such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment, the
Depositor shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Trust Fund.

         Section 9.10 MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION OF TRUSTEE.

         Any corporation, state bank or national banking association into which
the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or
any corporation, state bank or national banking association resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or
any corporation, state bank or national banking association succeeding to
substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the
successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 9.06 hereof without the execution or
filing of any paper or further act on the part of any of the parties hereto,
anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

                                      163

         Section 9.11 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 Fund or property securing any Mortgage Note may at the
time be located, the Master Servicer and the Trustee acting jointly shall have
the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more
Persons approved by the Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees jointly with
the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the
Trust Fund, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the
benefit of the Certificateholders, such title to the Trust Fund or any part
thereof, whichever is applicable, and, subject to the other provisions of this
Section 9.11, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Master
Servicer and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Master
Servicer shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the
receipt by it of a request to do so, or in the case an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make
such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required
to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 9.06 and
no notice to Certificateholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate
trustee shall be required under Section 9.09.

         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, except for the obligation of the Trustee
         under this Agreement to advance funds on behalf of the Master Servicer,
         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 a Trustee hereunder
         or as a Successor Master Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be
         incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event
         such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of
         title to the Trust Fund or any portion thereof in any such
         jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed 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 Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of 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 instrument appointing any
separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions
of this Article IX. 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

                                      164
<PAGE>

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 Master Servicer
and the Depositor.

         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 9.12 TAX MATTERS.

         It is intended that the Trust Fund shall constitute, and that the
affairs of the Trust Fund shall be conducted so that each REMIC formed hereunder
qualifies as, a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" as defined in and in
accordance with the REMIC Provisions. In furtherance of such intention, the
Trustee covenants and agrees that it shall act as agent (and the Trustee is
hereby appointed to act as agent) on behalf of the Trust Fund. The Trustee, as
agent on behalf of the Trust Fund, shall do or refrain from doing, as
applicable, the following: (a) the Trustee shall prepare and file, or cause to
be prepared and filed, in a timely manner, U.S. Real Estate Mortgage Investment
Conduit Income Tax Returns (Form 1066 or any successor form adopted by the
Internal Revenue Service) and prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed
with the Internal Revenue Service and applicable state or local tax authorities
income tax or information returns for each taxable year with respect to each
such REMIC containing such information and at the times and in the manner as may
be required by the Code or state or local tax laws, regulations, or rules, and
furnish or cause to be furnished to Certificateholders the schedules, statements
or information at such times and in such manner as may be required thereby; (b)
the Trustee shall apply for an employer identification number with the Internal
Revenue Service via a Form SS-4 or other comparable method for each REMIC that
is or becomes a taxable entity, and within thirty days of the Closing Date,
furnish or cause to be furnished to the Internal Revenue Service, on Forms 8811
or as otherwise may be required by the Code, the name, title, address, and
telephone number of the Person that the Holders of the Certificates may contact
for tax information relating thereto, together with such additional information
as may be required by such Form, and update such information at the time or
times in the manner required by the Code for the Trust Fund; (c) the Trustee
shall make or cause to be made elections, on behalf of each REMIC formed
hereunder to be treated as a REMIC on the federal tax return of such REMIC for
its first taxable year (and, if necessary, under applicable state law); (d) the
Trustee shall prepare and forward, or cause to be prepared and forwarded, to the
Certificateholders and to the Internal Revenue Service and, if necessary, state
tax authorities, all information returns and reports as and when required to be
provided to them in accordance with the REMIC Provisions, including without
limitation, the calculation of any original issue discount using the Prepayment
Assumption; (e) the Trustee shall provide information necessary for the
computation of tax imposed on the Transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Person
that is not a Permitted Transferee, or an agent (including a broker, nominee or
other middleman) of a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, or a
pass-through entity in which a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee is the
record Holder of an interest (the reasonable cost of computing and furnishing
such information

                                      165
<PAGE>

may be charged to the Person liable for such tax); (f) the Trustee shall, to the
extent under its control, conduct the affairs of the Trust Fund at all times
that any Certificates are outstanding so as to maintain the status of each REMIC
formed hereunder as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions; (g) the Trustee shall
not knowingly or intentionally take any action or omit to take any action that
would cause the termination of the REMIC status of any REMIC formed hereunder;
(h) the Trustee shall pay, from the sources specified in the penultimate
paragraph of this Section 9.12, the amount of any federal, state and local
taxes, including prohibited transaction taxes as described below, imposed on any
REMIC formed hereunder prior to the termination of the Trust Fund when and as
the same shall be due and payable (but such obligation shall not prevent the
Trustee or any other appropriate Person from contesting any such tax in
appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the Trustee from withholding
payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such
proceedings); (i) the Trustee shall maintain records relating to each REMIC
formed hereunder including but not limited to the income, expenses, assets and
liabilities of each such REMIC and adjusted basis of the Trust Fund property
determined at such intervals as may be required by the Code, as may be necessary
to prepare the foregoing returns, schedules, statements or information; (j) the
Trustee shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and records with
respect to the REMICs on a calendar year and on an accrual basis; (k) the
Trustee shall not enter into any arrangement not otherwise provided for in this
Agreement by which the REMICs will receive a fee or other compensation for
services nor permit the REMICs to receive any income from assets other than
"qualified mortgages" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or "permitted
investments" as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code; and (l) as and when
necessary and appropriate, the Trustee, at the expense of the Trust Fund, shall
represent the Trust Fund in any administrative or judicial proceedings relating
to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority, request an
administrative adjustment as to any taxable year of any REMIC formed hereunder,
enter into settlement agreements with any governmental taxing agency, extend any
statute of limitations relating to any tax item of the Trust Fund, and otherwise
act on behalf of each REMIC formed hereunder in relation to any tax matter
involving any such REMIC.

         In order to enable the Trustee to perform its duties as set forth
herein, the Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Trustee
within 10 days after the Closing Date all information or data that the Trustee
requests in writing and determines to be relevant for tax purposes to the
valuations and offering prices of the Certificates, including, without
limitation, the price, yield, prepayment assumption and projected cash flows of
the Certificates and the Mortgage Loans. Thereafter, the Depositor shall provide
to the Trustee promptly upon written request therefor, any such additional
information or data that the Trustee may, from time to time, request in order to
enable the Trustee to perform its duties as set forth herein. The Depositor
hereby indemnifies the Trustee for any losses, liabilities, damages, claims or
expenses of the Trustee arising from any errors or miscalculations of the
Trustee that result from any failure of the Depositor to provide, or to cause to
be provided, accurate information or data to the Trustee on a timely basis.

         In the event that any tax is imposed on "prohibited transactions" of
any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV, REMIC V or REMIC VI as defined in
Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the "net income from foreclosure property" of
the Trust Fund as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, on any contribution to
any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV, REMIC V or REMIC VI after the
Startup Day pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or

                                      166
<PAGE>

any other tax is imposed, including, without limitation, any federal, state or
local tax or minimum tax imposed upon any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC
IV, REMIC V or REMIC VI, and is not paid as otherwise provided for herein, such
tax shall be paid by (i) the Trustee, if any such other tax arises out of or
results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its obligations under this
Agreement, (ii) any party hereto (other than the Trustee) to the extent any such
other tax arises out of or results from a breach by such other party of any of
its obligations under this Agreement or (iii) in all other cases, or in the
event that any liable party hereto fails to honor its obligations under the
preceding clauses (i) or (ii), any such tax will be paid first with amounts
otherwise to be distributed to the Class R Certificateholders, and second with
amounts otherwise to be distributed to all other Certificateholders in the
following order of priority: first, to the Class M-8 Certificates, second, to
the Class M-7 Certificates, third, to the Class M-6 Certificates, fourth, to the

Class M-3 Certificates, seventh, to the Class M-2 Certificates, eighth, to the
Class M-1 Certificates, and ninth, to the Class A Certificates (PRO RATA based

Date, from the Holders of the Class R Certificates (and, if necessary, second,
from the Holders of the other Certificates in the priority specified in the
preceding sentence), funds otherwise distributable to such Holders in an amount
sufficient to pay such tax. The Trustee shall promptly notify in writing the
party liable for any such tax of the amount thereof and the due date for the
payment thereof.

         The Trustee agrees that, in the event it should obtain any information
necessary for the other party to perform its obligations pursuant to this
Section 9.12, it will promptly notify and provide such information to such other
party.

         Section 10.01 TERMINATION UPON LIQUIDATION OR REPURCHASE OF ALL
MORTGAGE LOANS.

         Subject to Section 10.03, the obligations and responsibilities of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Seller and the Trustee created hereby with
respect to the Trust Fund shall terminate upon the earlier of (a) the purchase
by the Majority Class CE Certificateholder (or its designee) or the Master
Servicer, as applicable, of all of the Mortgage Loans (and REO Properties)
remaining in the Trust Fund at a price (the "Mortgage Loan Purchase Price")
equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage
Loan (other than in respect of REO Property), (ii) accrued interest thereon at
the applicable Mortgage Rate to, but not including, the first day of the month
of such purchase, (iii) the appraised value of any REO Property in the Trust
Fund (up to the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan), such
appraisal to be conducted by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Master
Servicer and the Trustee, (iv) unreimbursed out-of pocket costs of the Master
Servicer, including unreimbursed servicing advances and the principal portion of
any unreimbursed Advances, made on the Mortgage Loans prior to the exercise of
such repurchase right, (v) any unreimbursed costs and expenses of the Trustee
payable pursuant to Section 9.05 and (b) the later of (i) the maturity or other
liquidation (or any Advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan
remaining in the Trust Fund and the disposition of all REO Property and (ii) the
distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to
them pursuant to this Agreement, as applicable. In no event shall the trusts
created hereby continue beyond the earlier of (i) 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 and (ii) the Latest Possible Maturity Date.

         The right to repurchase all Mortgage Loans and REO Properties by the
Majority Class CE Certificateholder pursuant to clause (a) in the preceding
paragraph shall be conditioned upon the Stated Principal Balance of all of the
Mortgage Loans in the Trust Fund, at the time of any such repurchase,
aggregating 10% or less of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of all
of the Mortgage Loans. If the Majority Class CE Certificateholder does not
exercise this option, the Master Servicer has the right to repurchase all
Mortgage Loans and REO Properties pursuant to clause (a) in the preceding
paragraph, conditioned upon the Stated Principal Balance of all of the Mortgage
Loans in the Trust Fund, at the time of any such repurchase, aggregating 5% or
less of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of all of the Mortgage
Loans.

         Section 10.02 FINAL DISTRIBUTION ON THE CERTIFICATES.

         If on any Determination Date, (i) the Master Servicer determines that
there are no Outstanding Mortgage Loans and no other funds or assets in the
Trust Fund other than the funds in the Protected Account, the Master Servicer
shall direct the Trustee to send a final distribution notice promptly to each
Certificateholder or (ii) the Trustee determines that a Class of Certificates
shall be retired after a final distribution on such Class, the Trustee shall
notify the Certificateholders within five (5) Business Days after such
Determination Date that the final

                                      168
<PAGE>

distribution in retirement of such Class of Certificates is scheduled to be made
on the immediately following Distribution Date. Any final distribution made
pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence will be made only upon
presentation and surrender of the related Certificates at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Trustee. If the Majority Class CE Certificateholder or the Master
Servicer, as applicable, elects to terminate the Trust Fund pursuant to Section
10.01, at least 20 days prior to the date notice is to be mailed to the
Certificateholders, the Majority Class CE Certificateholder or the Master
Servicer, as applicable, shall notify the Depositor and the Trustee of the date
the Majority Class CE Certificateholder or the Master Servicer, as applicable,
intends to terminate the Trust Fund. The Master Servicer shall remit the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Price to the Trustee on the Business Day prior to the
Distribution Date for such Optional Termination by the Majority Class CE
Certificateholder or the Master Servicer, as applicable.

         Notice of any termination of the Trust Fund, specifying the
Distribution Date on which Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates
for payment of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly
by the Trustee by letter to Certificateholders mailed not later than two
Business Days after the Determination Date in the month of such final
distribution. Any such notice shall specify (a) the Distribution Date upon which
final distribution on the Certificates will be made upon presentation and
surrender of Certificates at the office therein designated, (b) the amount of
such final distribution, (c) the location of the office or agency at which such
presentation and surrender must be made and (d) 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 therein
specified. The Trustee will give such notice to each Rating Agency at the time
such notice is given to Certificateholders.

         In the event such notice is given, the Master Servicer shall cause all
funds in the Protected Account to be remitted to the Trustee for deposit in the
Distribution Account on the Business Day prior to the applicable Distribution
Date in an amount equal to the final distribution in respect of the
Certificates. Upon such final deposit with respect to the Trust Fund and the
receipt by the Trustee of a Request for Release therefor, the Trustee or the
Custodian shall promptly release to EMC as applicable the Mortgage Files for the
Mortgage Loans and the Trustee shall execute and deliver any documents prepared
and delivered to it which are necessary to transfer any REO Property.

         Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Trustee shall
cause to be distributed to Certificateholders of each Class the amounts
allocable to such Certificates held in the Distribution Account in the order and
priority set forth in Section 5.04 hereof on the final Distribution Date and in
proportion to their respective Percentage Interests.

         In the event that any affected Certificateholders shall not surrender
Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in the
above mentioned written notice, the Trustee shall give a second written notice
to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for
cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within
six months after the second notice all the applicable Certificates shall not
have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take appropriate steps,
or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining
Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates, and the cost
thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets that remain a part of
the Trust

                                      169
<PAGE>

Fund. If within one year after the second notice all Certificates
shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Class R Certificateholders
shall be entitled to all unclaimed funds and other assets of the Trust Fund that
remain subject hereto.

         Section 10.03 ADDITIONAL TERMINATION REQUIREMENTS.

         (a) Upon exercise by the Majority Class CE Certificateholder or the
Master Servicer, as applicable, of its purchase option as provided in Section
10.01, the Trust Fund shall be terminated in accordance with the following
additional requirements, unless the Trustee has been supplied with an Opinion of
Counsel addressed to the Trustee, at the expense of the Majority Class CE
Certificateholder or the Master Servicer, as applicable, to the effect that the
failure of the Trust Fund to comply with the requirements of this Section 10.03
will not (i) result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of a
REMIC, or (ii) cause a REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding:

                  (1) The Majority Class CE Certificateholder or the Master
         Servicer, as applicable, shall establish a 90-day liquidation period
         and notify the Trustee thereof, and the Trustee shall in turn specify
         the first day of such period in a statement attached to the tax return
         for any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV, REMIC V or REMIC VI
         pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.860F-1. The Majority Class CE
         Certificateholder or the Master Servicer, as applicable, shall satisfy
         all the requirements of a qualified liquidation under Section 860F of
         the Code and any regulations thereunder, as evidenced by an Opinion of
         Counsel obtained at the expense of the Majority Class CE
         Certificateholder or the Master Servicer, as applicable;

                  (2) During such 90-day liquidation period, and at or prior to
         the time of making the final payment on the Certificates, the Trustee
         shall sell all of the assets of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV,
         REMIC V or REMIC VI for cash; and

                  (3) 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, to the Holders of the Residual Certificates
         all cash on hand (other than cash retained to meet claims), and REMIC I
         shall terminate at that time.

         (b) By their acceptance of the Certificates, the Holders thereof hereby
authorize the adoption of a 90-day liquidation period and the adoption of a plan
of complete liquidation for REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV, REMIC V or
REMIC VI, which authorization shall be binding upon all successor
Certificateholders.

         (c) The Trustee as agent for each REMIC hereby agrees to adopt and sign
such a plan of complete liquidation meeting the requirements for a qualified
liquidation under Section 860F of the Code and any regulations thereunder upon
the written request of the Majority Class CE Certificateholder or the Master
Servicer, as applicable, and the receipt of the Opinion of Counsel referred to
in Section 10.03(a)(1) and to take such other action in connection therewith as
may be

                                      170
<PAGE>

reasonably requested by the Majority Class CE Certificateholder or the
Master Servicer, as applicable.

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

         Section 11.01 AMENDMENT.

         This Agreement may be amended from time to time by parties hereto
without the consent of any of the Certificateholders to cure any ambiguity, to
correct or supplement any provisions herein (including to give effect to the
expectations of investors), to change the manner in which the Protected Account
is maintained or to make such other provisions with respect to matters or
questions arising under this Agreement as shall not be inconsistent with any
other provisions herein if such action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of
Counsel addressed to the Trustee, adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of any Certificateholder; provided that any such amendment shall be
deemed not to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the
Certificateholders and no such Opinion of Counsel shall be required if the
Person requesting such amendment obtains a letter from each Rating Agency
stating that such amendment would not result in the downgrading or withdrawal of
the respective ratings then assigned to the Certificates.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of the
Certificateholders, the parties hereto may at any time and from time to time
amend this Agreement to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to
such extent as shall be necessary or appropriate to maintain the qualification
of any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV, REMIC V or REMIC VI as a REMIC
under the Code or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any tax on
any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV, REMIC V or REMIC VI pursuant to
the Code that would be a claim against any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III,
REMIC IV, REMIC V or REMIC VI at any time prior to the final redemption of the
Certificates, provided that the Trustee has been provided an Opinion of Counsel
addressed to the Trustee, which opinion shall be an expense of the party
requesting such opinion but in any case shall not be an expense of the Trustee
or the Trust Fund, to the effect that such action is necessary or appropriate to
maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition
of such a tax.

         This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the parties
hereto with the consent of the Holders of each Class of Certificates affected
thereby evidencing over 50% of the Voting Rights of such Class or Classes 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 Swap Administrator or the Holders of Certificates; provided that no such
amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of,
payments required to be distributed on any Certificate without the consent of
the Holder of such Certificate, (ii) cause any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III,
REMIC IV, REMIC V or REMIC VI to cease to qualify as a REMIC or (iii) reduce the
aforesaid percentages of Certificates of each Class the Holders of which are
required to consent to any such amendment without the consent of the Holders of
all Certificates of such Class then outstanding.

         Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the Trustee
shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall have first
received an Opinion of Counsel

                                      172
<PAGE>

addressed to the Trustee, which opinion shall be an expense of the party
requesting such amendment but in any case shall not be an expense of the
Trustee, to the effect that such amendment will not (other than an amendment
pursuant to clause (ii) of, and in accordance with, the preceding paragraph)
cause the imposition of any tax on any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC
IV, REMIC V or REMIC VI or the Certificateholders or cause any of REMIC I, REMIC
II, REMIC III, REMIC IV, REMIC V or REMIC VI to cease to qualify as a REMIC at
any time that any Certificates are outstanding. Further, nothing in this
Agreement shall require the Trustee to enter into an amendment without receiving
an Opinion of Counsel, satisfactory to the Trustee that (i) such amendment is
permitted and is not prohibited by this Agreement and that all requirements for
amending this Agreement (including any consent of the applicable
Certificateholders) have been complied with.

         Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 11.01, none
of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall enter into any
amendment to Section 3.20 or Section 5.04(a)(4)(F) of this Agreement without the
prior written consent of the Swap Provider.

         Promptly after the execution of any amendment to this Agreement
requiring the consent of Certificateholders, the Trustee shall furnish written
notification of the substance of such amendment to each Certificateholder and
each Rating Agency.

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

         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
of the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or all of the
Mortgaged Properties are situated, and in any other appropriate public recording
office or elsewhere. The Master Servicer shall effect such recordation at the
Trust's expense upon the request in writing of a Certificateholder, but only if
such direction is accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel (provided at the expense
of the Certificateholder requesting recordation) to the effect that such
recordation would materially and beneficially affect the interests of the
Certificateholders or is required by law.

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

         Section 11.03 GOVERNING LAW.

         THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY
THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND

         Section 11.04 INTENTION OF PARTIES.

         It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of
the Mortgage Notes, Mortgages, assignments of Mortgages, title insurance
policies and any modifications, extensions and/or assumption agreements and
private mortgage insurance policies relating to the Mortgage Loans by the Seller
to the Depositor, and by the Depositor to the Trustee be, and be construed as,
an absolute sale thereof to the Depositor or the Trustee, as applicable. It is,
further, not the intention of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a
pledge thereof by the Seller to the Depositor, or by the Depositor to the
Trustee. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties,
such assets are held to be the property of the Seller or the Depositor, as
applicable, or if for any other reason the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or
this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in such assets,
then (i) the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement shall each be
deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial
Code of the State of New York and (ii) the conveyance provided for in the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement from the Seller to the Depositor, and the
conveyance provided for in this Agreement from the Depositor to the Trustee,
shall be deemed to be an assignment and a grant by the Seller or the Depositor,
as applicable, for the benefit of the Certificateholders of a security interest
in all of the assets that constitute the Trust Fund, whether now owned or
hereafter acquired.

         The Depositor for the benefit of the Certificateholders shall, to the
extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary to
ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the
assets of the Trust Fund, such security interest would be deemed to be a
perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be
maintained as such throughout the term of the Agreement.

commence any proceeding in any court for a petition or winding up of the Trust
Fund, or otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties
hereto or any of them.

         No Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as provided
herein) or in any manner otherwise control the operation and management of the
Trust Fund, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein
set forth or contained in the terms of the Certificates be construed so as to
constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members

                                      175
<PAGE>

of an association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under any liability to any
third party 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 or by availing
itself of any provisions 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 an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided,
the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights
evidenced by the Certificates shall also have made written request to 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 60 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 being understood and intended, and being

right under this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the
common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement of
the provisions of this Section 11.08, each and every Certificateholder or the
Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in
equity.

         Section 11.09 INSPECTION AND AUDIT RIGHTS.

permit any representative of the Depositor or the Trustee during the Master
Servicer's normal business hours, to examine all the books of account, records,

         one- to four-family fixed and adjustable interest rate mortgage loans
         sold by BEAR STEARNS ASSET BACKED SECURITIES I LLC.

         This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust Fund,
and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Bear Stearns Asset Backed
Securities I LLC, the Master Servicer or the Trustee referred to below or any of
their affiliates or any other person. Neither this Certificate nor the
underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental entity
or by Bear Stearns Asset Backed Securities I LLC, the Master Servicer or the
Trustee or any of their affiliates or any other person. None of Bear Stearns
Asset Backed Securities I LLC, the Master Servicer or any of their affiliates
will have any obligation with respect to any certificate or other obligation
secured by or payable from payments on the Certificates.

         This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the
Percentage Interest evidenced hereby in the beneficial ownership interest of
Certificates of the same Class as this

                                     A-1-2
<PAGE>

Certificate in a trust (the "Trust Fund") generally consisting of conventional,
closed-end first and second lien, fixed and adjustable rate mortgage loans
secured by one- to four- family residences (collectively, the "Mortgage Loans")
sold by Bear Stearns Asset Backed Securities I LLC ("BSABS I"). The Mortgage
Loans were sold by EMC Mortgage Corporation ("EMC") to BSABS I. EMC will act as
master servicer of the Mortgage Loans (in that capacity, the "Master Servicer,"
which term includes any successors thereto under the Agreement referred to
below). The Trust Fund was created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, dated as of the Cut-off Date specified above (the "Agreement"), among
BSABS I, as depositor (the "Depositor"), EMC Mortgage Corporation as seller and
Master Servicer and LaSalle Bank National Association, as trustee (the
"Trustee"), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set
forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein
shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement. This Certificate is
issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the
Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of its
acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

         Interest on this Certificate will accrue from and including the
immediately preceding Distribution Date (or with respect to the First
Distribution Date, the Closing Date) to and including the day prior to the
current Distribution Date on the Certificate Principal Balance hereof at a per
annum rate equal to the Pass-Through Rate set forth above. The Trustee will
distribute on the 25th day of each month, or, if such 25th day is not a Business
Day, the immediately following Business Day (each, a "Distribution Date"),
commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in
whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the
Business Day immediately preceding such Distribution Date so long as such
Certificate remains in book-entry form (and otherwise, the close of business on
the last Business Day of the month immediately preceding the month of such
Distribution Date), an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest
evidenced by this Certificate and the amount (of interest and principal, if any)
required to be distributed to the Holders of Certificates of the same Class as
this Certificate. The Assumed Final Distribution Date is the Distribution Date
in the month following the latest scheduled maturity date of any Mortgage Loan.

         Each holder of a Certificate or beneficial ownership shall be deemed to
have made the representations set forth in Section 6.02(h) of the Pooling
Agreement.

         Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Trustee by check
mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such name and address
shall appear on the Certificate Register or, if such Person so requests by
notifying the Trustee in writing as specified in the Agreement. Notwithstanding
the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due
notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon
presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed
by the Trustee for that purpose and designated in such notice. The initial
Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate is set forth above. The
Certificate Principal Balance hereof will be reduced to the extent of
distributions allocable to principal hereon and any Realized Losses allocable
hereto.

         This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as set forth on the face hereof (the "Certificates"). The
Certificates, in the aggregate, evidence the entire beneficial ownership
interest in the Trust Fund formed pursuant to the Agreement.

                                     A-1-3
<PAGE>

         The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees
that it will look solely to the Trust Fund for payment hereunder and that the
Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under
this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the
Agreement, subject to any liability under the Agreement.

         This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of
rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Trustee.

         The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Depositor and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement from time
to time by the parties thereto with the consent of the Holders of each Class of
Certificates affected thereby evidencing over 50% of the Voting Rights of such
Class or Classes. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be
conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this
Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in lieu
hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.
The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited
circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

         As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable with the Trustee upon
surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or
agencies maintained by the Trustee for such purposes, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates in authorized
denominations representing a like aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued
to the designated transferee.

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

         No service charge will be made to the Certificateholders for any such
registration of transfer, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection
therewith. The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of any
of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the
owner hereof for all purposes, and none of Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created
thereby (other than the obligations to make payments to Certificateholders with
respect to the termination of the Agreement) shall terminate upon the earlier of
(i) the later of (A) the maturity or other liquidation (or Advance with respect
thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and disposition
of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any
Mortgage Loan and (B) the remittance of all funds due under the Agreement, or
(ii) the optional repurchase by the party named in the Agreement of all the
Mortgage Loans and other

                                     A-1-4
<PAGE>

assets of the Trust Fund in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. Such
optional repurchase may be made only on or after the first Distribution Date on
which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than
or equal to a certain percentage of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of
the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date as set forth in the Agreement. The
exercise of such right will effect the early retirement of the Certificates. In
no event, however, will the Trust Fund created by the Agreement continue beyond
the expiration of 21 years after the death of certain persons identified in the
Agreement.

         Unless this Certificate has been countersigned by an authorized
signatory of the Trustee by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be
entitled to any benefit under the Agreement, or be valid for any purpose.

                                     A-1-5

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trustee has caused this Certificate to be duly
executed.

mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such name and address
shall appear on the Certificate Register or, if such Person so requests by

the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due
notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon

register such transfer if, (i) made to a transferee who has provided the Trustee
with evidence as to its QIB status; or (ii) (A) the transferor has advised the
Trustee in writing that the Certificate is being transferred to an Institutional
Accredited Investor and (B) prior to such transfer the transferee furnishes to
the Trustee an Investment Letter; provided that if based upon an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that (A) and (B) above are not sufficient to confirm that
such transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction
not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other
applicable laws, the Trustee shall as a condition of the registration of any
such transfer require the transferor to furnish such other certifications, legal
opinions or other information prior to registering the transfer of this
Certificate as shall be set forth in such Opinion of Counsel.]

         This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as set forth on the face hereof (the "Certificates"). The
Certificates, in the aggregate, evidence the entire beneficial ownership
interest in the Trust Fund formed pursuant to the Agreement.

         The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees
that it will look solely to the Trust Fund for payment hereunder and that the
Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under
this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the
Agreement, subject to any liability under the Agreement.

         This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of
rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Trustee.

         The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Depositor and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement from time
to time by the parties thereto with the consent of the Holders of the Class or
Classes of Certificates affected thereby evidencing over 50% of the Voting
Rights of such Class or Classes. Any such consent by the Holder of this
Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future
Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer
hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such

                                     A-2-5
<PAGE>

consent is made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment
thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of
any of the Certificates.

         As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable with the Trustee upon
surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or
agencies maintained by the Trustee for such purposes, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates in authorized
denominations representing a like aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued
to the designated transferee.

         [For Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5 and Class
M-6] [Each holder of a Certificate or beneficial ownership shall be deemed to
have made the representations set forth in Section 6.02(h) of the Pooling
Agreement.]

         [For Class M-7 and Class M-8] [This Certificate may not be acquired
directly or indirectly by, or on behalf of, an employee benefit plan or other
retirement arrangement which is subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, unless the transferee certifies or represents that the
proposed transfer and holding of a Certificate and the servicing, management and
operation of the trust and its assets: (i) will not result in any prohibited
transaction which is not covered under an individual or class prohibited
transaction exemption, including, but not limited to, Prohibited Transaction
Exemption ("PTE") 84-14, PTE 91-38, PTE 90-1, PTE 95-60 or PTE 96-23 and (ii)
will not give rise to any additional obligations on the part of the Depositor,
the Master Servicer or the Trustee, which will be deemed represented by an owner
of a Book-Entry Certificate or a Global Certificate or unless an opinion
specified in section 6.02 of the Agreement is provided. This Certificate is one
of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as set forth on the face
hereof (the "Certificates"). The Certificates, in the aggregate, evidence the
entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund formed pursuant to the
Agreement.]

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

         No service charge will be made to the Certificateholders for any such
registration of transfer, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection
therewith. The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of any
of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the
owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created
thereby (other than the obligations to make payments to Certificateholders with
respect to the termination

                                     A-2-6

of the Agreement) shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the later of (A) the
maturity or other liquidation (or Advance with respect thereto) of the last
Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and disposition of all property
acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan
and (B) the remittance of all funds due under the Agreement, or (ii) the
optional repurchase by the party named in the Agreement of all the Mortgage
Loans and other assets of the Trust Fund in accordance with the terms of the
Agreement. Such optional repurchase may be made only on or after the first
Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loans is less than or equal to a certain percentage of the aggregate
Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date as set
forth in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect the early
retirement of the Certificates. In no event, however, will the Trust Fund
created by the Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years after the
death of certain persons identified in the Agreement.

         Unless this Certificate has been countersigned by an authorized
signatory of the Trustee by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be
entitled to any benefit under the Agreement, or be valid for any purpose.

Ownership Interest in this Certificate will be conditioned upon the delivery to
the Trustee of, among other things, an affidavit to the effect that it is a
United States Person and Permitted Transferee, (iii) any attempted or purported
transfer of any Ownership Interest in this Certificate in violation of such
restrictions will be absolutely null and void and will vest no rights in the
purported transferee, and (iv) if any person other than a United States Person
and a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in this Certificate
in violation of such restrictions, then the Depositor will have the right, in
its sole discretion and without notice to the Holder of this Certificate, to
sell this Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Depositor, which purchaser
may be the Depositor, or any affiliate of the Depositor, on such terms and
conditions as the Depositor may choose.

         The Trustee will distribute on the 25th day of each month, or, if such
25th day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day (each, a
"Distribution Date"), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above,
to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the last day (or if such last day is not a Business Day, the
Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the calendar month
immediately preceding the month in which the Distribution Date occurs, an amount
equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate
and the amounts required to be distributed to the Holders of Certificates of the
same Class as this Certificate.

         Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Trustee by check
mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such name and address
shall appear on the Certificate Register or, if such Person so requests by
notifying the Trustee in writing as specified in the Agreement. Notwithstanding
the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due
notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon
presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed
by the Trustee for that purpose and designated in such notice.

         No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is
made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "1933

                                     A-3-4
<PAGE>

Act"), and an effective registration or qualification under applicable state
securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such
registration or qualification. In the event that such a transfer of this
Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification, the Trustee
shall require receipt of (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in
reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the
Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such
Holder's prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the
Agreement as Exhibit D and either Exhibit E or Exhibit F, as applicable, and
(ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to it that such
transfer may be made without such registration or qualification (which Opinion
of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the
Trustee or the Master Servicer in their respective capacities as such), together
with copies of the written certification(s) of the Holder of the Certificate
desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Holder's prospective transferee upon
which such Opinion of Counsel is based. Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee is
obligated to register or qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the face
hereof under the 1933 Act or any other securities law or to take any action not
otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such
Certificates without registration or qualification. Any Holder desiring to
effect a transfer of this Certificate shall be required to indemnify the
Trustee, the Depositor, the Seller and the Master Servicer 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.

         No transfer of this Class P Certificate will be made unless the Trustee
shall have received either (i) the opinion of counsel set forth in Section
6.02(h) of the Agreement or (ii) a representation letter under Section 6.02 of
the Agreement, in the form as described by the Agreement, stating that the
transferee is not an employee benefit or other plan subject to the prohibited
transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (a "Plan"), or any
other person (including an investment manager, a named fiduciary or a trustee of
any Plan) acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of or purchasing any
Certificate with "plan assets" of any Plan.

         This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as set forth on the face hereof (the "Certificates"). The
Certificates, in the aggregate, evidence the entire beneficial ownership
interest in the Trust Fund formed pursuant to the Agreement.

         The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees
that it will look solely to the Trust Fund for payment hereunder and that the
Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under
this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the
Agreement, subject to any liability under the Agreement.

         This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of
rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Trustee.

         The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Depositor and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement from time
to time by the parties thereto with the consent of the Holders of the Class or
Classes of Certificates affected thereby evidencing over 50% of the Voting
Rights of such Class or Classes. Any such consent by the Holder of this
Certificate shall

                                     A-3-5
<PAGE>

be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this
Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in lieu
hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.
The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited
circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

         As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable with the Trustee upon
surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or
agencies maintained by the Trustee for such purposes, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates in authorized
denominations representing a like aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued
to the designated transferee.

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

         No service charge will be made to the Certificateholders for any such
registration of transfer, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection
therewith. The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of any
of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the
owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created
thereby (other than the obligations to make payments to Certificateholders with
respect to the termination of the Agreement) shall terminate upon the earlier of
(i) the later of (A) the maturity or other liquidation (or Advance with respect
thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and disposition
of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any
Mortgage Loan and (B) the remittance of all funds due under the Agreement, or
(ii) the optional repurchase by the party named in the Agreement of all the
Mortgage Loans and other assets of the Trust Fund in accordance with the terms
of the Agreement. Such optional repurchase may be made only on or after the
first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loans is less than or equal to a certain percentage of the aggregate
Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date as set
forth in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect the early
retirement of the Certificates. In no event, however, will the Trust Fund
created by the Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years after the
death of certain persons identified in the Agreement.

         Unless this Certificate has been countersigned by an authorized
signatory of the Trustee by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be
entitled to any benefit under the Agreement, or be valid for any purpose.

                                 SERIES 2005-HE3

         evidencing a fractional undivided interest in the distributions
         allocable to the Class CE Certificates with respect to a Trust Fund
         consisting primarily of a pool of fixed and adjustable interest rate,
         conventional, closed-end mortgage loans that are secured by first and
         second liens on one- to four-family residences sold by BEAR STEARNS
         ASSET BACKED SECURITIES I LLC.

         This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust Fund,
and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Bear Stearns Asset Backed
Securities I LLC, the Master Servicer or the Trustee referred to below or any of
their affiliates or any other person. Neither this Certificate nor the
underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental entity
or by Bear Stearns Asset Backed Securities I LLC, the Master Servicer or the
Trustee or any of their affiliates or any other person. None of Bear Stearns
Asset Backed Securities I LLC, the Master Servicer or any of their affiliates
will have any obligation with respect to any certificate or other obligation
secured by or payable from payments on the Certificates.

         This certifies that __________________ is the registered owner of the
Percentage Interest evidenced hereby in the beneficial ownership interest of
Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate in a trust (the "Trust Fund")
generally consisting primarily of a pool of fixed and adjustable interest rate,
conventional, closed-end mortgage loans that are secured by first and second
liens on one- to four-family residences (collectively, the "Mortgage Loans")
sold by Bear

                                     A-4-3

Stearns Asset Backed Securities I LLC ("BSABS I"). The Mortgage Loans were sold
by EMC Mortgage Corporation ("EMC") to BSABS I. EMC will act as master servicer
of the Mortgage Loans (in that capacity, the "Master Servicer," which term
includes any successors thereto under the Agreement referred to below). The
Trust Fund was created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as
of the Cut-off Date specified above (the "Agreement"), among BSABS I, as
depositor (the "Depositor"), EMC Mortgage Corporation as seller and Master
Servicer and LaSalle Bank National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"), a
summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter.
To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the
meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and
is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which
Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of its acceptance hereof
assents and by which such Holder is bound.

         The Trustee will distribute on the 25th day of each month, or, if such
25th day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day (each, a
"Distribution Date"), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above,
to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the last day (or if such last day is not a Business Day, the
Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the calendar month
immediately preceding the month in which the Distribution Date occurs, an amount
equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate
and the amounts required to be distributed to the Holders of Certificates of the
same Class as this Certificate.

         Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Trustee by check
mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such name and address
shall appear on the Certificate Register or, if such Person so requests by
notifying the Trustee in writing as specified in the Agreement. Notwithstanding
the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due
notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon
presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed
by the Trustee for that purpose and designated in such notice.

         No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is
made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and an effective registration or
qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a
transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. In the
event that such a transfer of this Certificate is to be made without
registration or qualification, the Trustee shall require receipt of (i) if such
transfer is purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933
Act, written certifications from the Holder of the Certificate desiring to
effect the transfer, and from such Holder's prospective transferee,
substantially in the forms attached to the Agreement as Exhibit D and either
Exhibit E or Exhibit F, as applicable, and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion
of Counsel satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made without such
registration or qualification (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense
of the Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the Trustee, or the Master Servicer in
their respective capacities as such), together with copies of the written
certification(s) of the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the
transfer and/or such Holder's prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of
Counsel is based. Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee is obligated to register
or qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933
Act or any other securities law

                                     A-4-4
<PAGE>

or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the
transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification. Any Holder
desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate shall be required to indemnify
the Trustee, the Depositor, the Seller and the Master Servicer 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.

         No transfer of this Class CE Certificate will be made unless the
Trustee shall have received either (i) the opinion of counsel set forth in
Section 6.02(h) of the Agreement or (ii) a representation letter under Section
6.02 of the Agreement, in the form as described by the Agreement, stating that
the transferee is not an employee benefit or other plan subject to the
prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (a
"Plan"), or any other person (including an investment manager, a named fiduciary
or a trustee of any Plan) acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of or
purchasing any Certificate with "plan assets" of any Plan.

         This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as set forth on the face hereof (the "Certificates"). The
Certificates, in the aggregate, evidence the entire beneficial ownership
interest in the Trust Fund formed pursuant to the Agreement.

         The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees
that it will look solely to the Trust Fund for payment hereunder and that the
Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under
this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the
Agreement, subject to any liability under the Agreement.

         This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of
rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Trustee.

         The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Depositor and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement from time
to time by the parties thereto with the consent of the Holders of the Class or
Classes of Certificates affected thereby evidencing over 50% of the Voting
Rights of such Class or Classes. Any such consent by the Holder of this
Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future
Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer
hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon
this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain
limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the
Certificates.

         As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable with the Trustee upon
surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or
agencies maintained by the Trustee for such purposes, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates in authorized
denominations representing a like aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued
to the designated transferee.

         The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without
coupons in the Classes and denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided
in the Agreement and

                                     A-4-5
<PAGE>

subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Certificate is
exchangeable for one or more new Certificates evidencing the same Class and in
the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering
the same.

         No service charge will be made to the Certificateholders for any such
registration of transfer, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection
therewith. The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of any
of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the
owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created
thereby (other than the obligations to make payments to Certificateholders with
respect to the termination of the Agreement) shall terminate upon the earlier of
(i) the later of (A) the maturity or other liquidation (or Advance with respect
thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and disposition
of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any
Mortgage Loan and (B) the remittance of all funds due under the Agreement, or
(ii) the optional repurchase by the party named in the Agreement of all the
Mortgage Loans and other assets of the Trust Fund in accordance with the terms
of the Agreement. Such optional repurchase may be made only on or after the
first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loans is less than or equal to a certain percentage of the aggregate
Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date as set
forth in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect the early
retirement of the Certificates. In no event, however, will the Trust Fund
created by the Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years after the
death of certain persons identified in the Agreement.

         Unless this Certificate has been countersigned by an authorized

                            ASSET-BACKED CERTIFICATE
                                 SERIES 2005-HE3

         evidencing a fractional undivided interest in the distributions
         allocable to the Class R[-1][-2][-3][X] Certificates with respect to a
         Trust Fund consisting primarily of a pool of conventional, closed-end
         first and second lien one- to four-family fixed and adjustable interest
         rate mortgage loans sold by BEAR STEARNS ASSET BACKED SECURITIES I LLC.

         This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust Fund,
and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Bear Stearns Asset Backed
Securities I LLC, the Master Servicer or the Trustee referred to below or any of
their affiliates or any other person. Neither this Certificate nor the
underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental entity
or by Bear Stearns Asset Backed Securities I LLC, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee or any of their affiliates or any other person. None of Bear Stearns
Asset Backed Securities I LLC, the Master Servicer or any of their affiliates
will have any obligation with respect to any certificate or other obligation
secured by or payable from payments on the Certificates.

         This certifies that Bear, Stearns Securities Corp. is the registered
owner of the Percentage Interest evidenced hereby in the beneficial ownership
interest of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate in a trust (the
"Trust Fund") generally consisting of conventional, closed-end first and second
lien, fixed and adjustable rate mortgage loans secured by one- to four- family
residences (collectively, the "Mortgage Loans") sold by Bear Stearns Asset
Backed Securities I LLC ("BSABS I"). The Mortgage Loans were sold by EMC
Mortgage Corporation ("EMC") to BSABS I. EMC will act as master servicer of the
Mortgage Loans (in that capacity,

                                     A-5-3
<PAGE>

the "Master Servicer," which term includes any successors thereto under the
Agreement referred to below). The Trust Fund was created pursuant to the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, dated as of the Cut-off Date specified above (the
"Agreement"), among BSABS I, as depositor (the "Depositor"), EMC Mortgage
Corporation as seller and Master Servicer and LaSalle Bank National Association
as trustee (the "Trustee"), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of
which is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement. This
Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and
conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate
by virtue of its acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

         Each Holder of this Certificate will be deemed to have agreed to be
bound by the restrictions set forth in the Agreement to the effect that (i) each
person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in this Certificate must be a
United States Person and a Permitted Transferee, (ii) the transfer of any
Ownership Interest in this Certificate will be conditioned upon the delivery to
the Trustee of, among other things, an affidavit to the effect that it is a
United States Person and Permitted Transferee, (iii) any attempted or purported
transfer of any Ownership Interest in this Certificate in violation of such
restrictions will be absolutely null and void and will vest no rights in the
purported transferee, and (iv) if any person other than a United States Person
and a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in this Certificate
in violation of such restrictions, then the Depositor will have the right, in
its sole discretion and without notice to the Holder of this Certificate, to
sell this Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Depositor, which purchaser
may be the Depositor, or any affiliate of the Depositor, on such terms and
conditions as the Depositor may choose.

         The Trustee will distribute on the 25th day of each month, or, if such
25th day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day (each, a
"Distribution Date"), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above,
to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the last day (or if such last day is not a Business Day, the
Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the calendar month
immediately preceding the month in which the Distribution Date occurs, an amount
equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate
and the amounts required to be distributed to the Holders of Certificates of the
same Class as this Certificate.

         Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Trustee by check
mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such name and address
shall appear on the Certificate Register or, if such Person so requests by
notifying the Trustee in writing as specified in the Agreement. Notwithstanding
the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due
notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon
presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed
by the Trustee for that purpose and designated in such notice.

         No transfer of this Class R[-1][-2][-3][X] Certificate will be made
unless the Trustee shall have received either (i) the opinion of counsel set
forth in Section 6.02(h) of the Agreement or (ii) a representation letter under
Section 6.02 of the Agreement, in the form as described by the Agreement,
stating that the transferee is not an employee benefit or other plan subject to
the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (a
"Plan"),

                                     A-5-4
<PAGE>

or any other person (including an investment manager, a named fiduciary or a
trustee of any Plan) acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of or purchasing
any Certificate with "plan assets" of any Plan.

         This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as set forth on the face hereof (the "Certificates"). The
Certificates, in the aggregate, evidence the entire beneficial ownership
interest in the Trust Fund formed pursuant to the Agreement.

         The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees
that it will look solely to the Trust Fund for payment hereunder and that the
Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under
this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the
Agreement, subject to any liability under the Agreement.

         This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of
rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Trustee.

         The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Depositor and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement from time
to time by the parties thereto with the consent of the Holders of the Class or
Classes of Certificates affected thereby evidencing over 50% of the Voting
Rights of such Class or Classes. Any such consent by the Holder of this
Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future
Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer
hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon
this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain
limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the
Certificates.

         As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable with the Trustee upon
surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or
agencies maintained by the Trustee for such purposes, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates in authorized
denominations representing a like aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued
to the designated transferee.

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

         No service charge will be made to the Certificateholders for any such
registration of transfer, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection
therewith. The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of any
of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the
owner hereof for all purposes, and none of Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created
thereby (other than the obligations to make payments to Certificateholders with
respect to the termination of the Agreement) shall terminate upon the earlier of
(i) the later of (A) the maturity or other liquidation (or Advance with respect
thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and disposition
of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any
Mortgage Loan and (B) the remittance of all funds due under the Agreement, or
(ii) the optional repurchase by the party named in the Agreement of all the
Mortgage Loans and other assets of the Trust Fund in accordance with the terms
of the Agreement. Such optional repurchase may be made only on or after the
first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loans is less than or equal to a certain percentage of the aggregate
Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date as set
forth in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect the early
retirement of the Certificates. In no event, however, will the Trust Fund
created by the Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years after the
death of certain persons identified in the Agreement.

         Unless this Certificate has been countersigned by an authorized
signatory of the Trustee by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be
entitled to any benefit under the Agreement, or be valid for any purpose.

                           acknowledge you have no obligation), the Privately

         "TRUSTEE" shall mean LaSalle Bank National Association, a national
banking association, not in its individual capacity, but solely in its capacity
as trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders under this Agreement, and
any successor thereto, and any corporation or national banking association
resulting from or surviving any consolidation or merger to which it or its
successors may be a party and any successor trustee as may from time to time be

                                   ARTICLE II.
                          CUSTODY OF MORTGAGE DOCUMENTS

         Section 2.1. CUSTODIAN TO ACT AS AGENT: ACCEPTANCE OF MORTGAGE FILES.
The Custodian, as the duly appointed custodial agent of the Trustee for these
purposes, acknowledges (subject to any exceptions noted in the Initial
Certification referred to in Section 2.3(a)) receipt of the Mortgage Files
relating to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Schedule attached hereto (the
"Mortgage Loan Schedule") and declares that it holds and will hold such Mortgage
Files as agent for the Trustee, in trust, for the use and benefit of all present
and future Certificateholders.

         Section 2.2. RECORDATION OF ASSIGNMENTS. If any Mortgage File includes
one or more assignments of Mortgage that have not been recorded and the related
Mortgage Loan is not a MERS Loan or the Custodian has not received written
instructions from the Seller or the Trustee that the related Mortgaged
Properties are located in jurisdictions under the laws of which the recordation
of such assignment is not necessary to protect the Trustee's interest therein,
each such assignment shall be delivered by the Custodian to the Seller for the
purpose of recording it in the appropriate public office for real property
records, and the Seller, at no expense to the Custodian, shall promptly cause to
be recorded in the appropriate public office for real property records each such
assignment of Mortgage and, upon receipt thereof from such public office, shall
return each such assignment of Mortgage to the Custodian.

         Section 2.3. REVIEW OF MORTGAGE FILES.

         (a)      The documents set forth in the definition "Mortgage File"
herein shall be delivered and released to the Custodian relating to each of the
Mortgage Loans to be purchased on a Closing Date. The related Mortgage Loans
shall be identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule in electronic format which
shall be delivered to the Custodian at least two Business Days prior to each
Closing Date. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Custodian shall deliver to
the Seller and the Trustee an Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto
as Exhibit One

                                      J-3
<PAGE>

evidencing receipt (subject to any exceptions noted therein) of a Mortgage File
for each of the Mortgage Loans listed on Schedule A attached hereto (the
"Mortgage Loan Schedule").

         (b)      Within 90 days thereafter, the Custodian agrees, for the
benefit of Certificateholders, to review each such document, and shall deliver
to the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Trustee an Interim Certification in
the form annexed hereto as Exhibit Two to the effect that all such documents
have been executed and received and that such documents relate to the Mortgage
Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, except for any exceptions listed
on Schedule A attached to such Interim Certification. The Custodian shall be
under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine said documents,
instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that the same are
genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they
have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be
on their face.

         (c)      Not later than 180 days after the Closing Date, the Custodian
shall review, for the benefit of Certificateholders, the Mortgage Files and
deliver to the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Trustee a Final Certification
in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit Three evidencing whether each document
required to be recorded has been returned from the recording office with
evidence of recording thereon and the Custodian has received either an original
or a copy thereof. If the Custodian finds any document missing, or to be
unrelated, determined on the basis of the mortgagor name, original principal
balance and loan number, to the mortgage loans identified on the Mortgage Loan
Schedule or to appear defective on its face, the Custodian shall note such
defect in the exception report attached to the Final Certification and shall
promptly notify the Trustee.

         (d)      In reviewing the Mortgage Files as provided herein, the
Custodian shall make no representation as to and shall not be responsible to
verify (i) the validity, legality, enforceability, due authorization,
recordability, sufficiency or genuineness of any of the documents included in
any Mortgage File or (ii) the collectibility, insurability, effectiveness or
suitability of any of the documents in any Mortgage File.

         In performing any such review, the Custodian may conclusively rely on
the purported due execution and genuineness of any such document and on the
purported genuineness of any signature thereon.

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

         Section 2.4. CUSTODIAN TO COOPERATE: RELEASE OF MORTGAGE FILES. Upon
receipt of written notice per Exhibit Four or Electronic Release Request per
Exhibit Five from the Trustee that the Seller has repurchased a Mortgage Loan
pursuant to Article II of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and a request for
release (a "Request for Release") confirming that the purchase price therefore
has been paid as required under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, then the
Custodian agrees to promptly release to the Seller the related Mortgage File.

                                      J-4
<PAGE>

         Upon the Custodian's receipt of a Request for Release substantially in
the form of Exhibit Four or Three attached hereto or Electronic Release Request
per Exhibit Five, stating that it has received payment in full of a Mortgage
Loan or that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for such
purposes, the Custodian agrees promptly to release to the Master Servicer, the
related Mortgage File. The Depositor shall deliver to the Custodian and the
Custodian agrees to review in accordance with the provisions of the Custodial
Agreement the Mortgage Note and other documents constituting the Mortgage File
with respect to any Replacement Mortgage Loan.

         From time to time as is appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of
any Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian a Request
for Release per Exhibit Four or Electronic Release Request per Exhibit Five
requesting that possession of all of the Mortgage File be released to the Master
Servicer and certifying as to the reason for such release. Upon receipt of the
foregoing, the Custodian shall deliver the Mortgage File to the Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall cause each Mortgage File or any document therein so
released to be returned to the Custodian when the need therefore by the Master
Servicer no longer exists, unless (i) the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated, or
(ii) the Mortgage File or such document has been delivered to an attorney, or to
a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of
initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of
the Mortgaged Property.

         Section 2.5. ASSUMPTION AGREEMENTS. In the event that any assumption
agreement, substitution of liability agreement or sale of servicing agreement is
entered into with respect to any Mortgage Loan subject to this Agreement, the
Master Servicer shall notify the Custodian that such assumption or substitution
agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Custodian the original of such
assumption or substitution agreement, which shall be added to the related
Mortgage File and, for all purposes, shall be considered a part of such Mortgage
File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting
parts thereof.

                                  ARTICLE III.
                            CONCERNING THE CUSTODIAN

         Section 3.1. CUSTODIAN A BAILEE AND AGENT OF THE TRUSTEE. With respect
to each Mortgage Note, Mortgage and other documents constituting each Mortgage
File which are delivered to the Custodian, the Custodian is exclusively the
bailee and custodial agent of the Trustee and has no instructions to hold any
Mortgage Note or Mortgage for the benefit of any person other than the Trustee
and the Certificateholders and undertakes to perform such duties and only such
duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. Except upon compliance
with the provisions of Section 2.4 of this Agreement, no Mortgage Note, Mortgage
or Mortgage File shall be delivered by the Custodian to the Seller, the
Depositor or the Master Servicer or otherwise released from the possession of
the Custodian.

         Section 3.2. CUSTODIAN MAY OWN CERTIFICATES. The Custodian in its
individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of interests in
the Mortgage Loans with the same rights it would have if it were not Custodian.

                                      J-5
<PAGE>

         Section 3.3. MASTER SERVICER TO PAY CUSTODIAN'S FEES AND EXPENSES. The
Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the Custodian from time to time,
and the Custodian shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for all services
rendered by it in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties
hereunder of the Custodian, and the Master Servicer will pay or reimburse the
Custodian upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and
advances incurred or made by the Custodian in accordance with any of the
provisions of this Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the
expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not regularly in
its employ), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from
its negligence or bad faith. A separate fee schedule will apply between the
Custodian and the Master Servicer.

         Section 3.4. CUSTODIAN MAY RESIGN; TRUSTEE MAY REMOVE CUSTODIAN. The
Custodian may resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed upon it as
such obligations and duties relate to its acting as Custodian of the Mortgage
Loans. Upon receiving such written notice of resignation, the Trustee shall
either take custody of the Mortgage Files itself and give prompt written notice
thereof to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Custodian, or promptly
appoint a successor Custodian by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of
which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Custodian and one copy to
the successor Custodian. If the Trustee shall not have taken custody of the
Mortgage Files and no successor Custodian shall have been so appointed and have
accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such written notice of
resignation, the resigning Custodian may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Custodian.

         The Trustee may remove the Custodian at any time upon 60 days prior
written notice to Custodian. In such event, the Trustee shall appoint, or
petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a successor Custodian
hereunder. Any successor Custodian shall be a depository institution subject to
supervision or examination by federal or state authority shall be able to
satisfy the other requirements contained in Section 3.7 and shall be
unaffiliated with the Master Servicer and the Depositor.

                  Any resignation or removal of the Custodian and appointment of
a successor Custodian pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 3.4
shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor
Custodian. The Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Depositor and the Master
Servicer of the appointment of any successor Custodian. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary set forth herein, no successor Custodian shall be appointed by
the Trustee without the prior approval of the Depositor and the Master Servicer.

         Section 3.5. MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION OF CUSTODIAN. Any Person into
which the Custodian may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Custodian shall be a party, or any Person succeeding
to the business of the Custodian, shall be the successor of the Custodian
hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on
the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.

         Section 3.6. REPRESENTATIONS OF THE CUSTODIAN. The Custodian hereby
represents that it is a depository institution subject to supervision or
examination by a federal or

                                      J-6
<PAGE>

state authority, has a combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000 and
is qualified to do business in the jurisdictions in which it will hold any
Mortgage File.

         Section 3.7. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY. Neither the Custodian nor any of
its directors, officers, agents or employees, shall be liable for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith
in good faith and believed (which belief may be based upon the opinion or advice
of counsel selected by it in the exercise of reasonable care) by it or them to
be within the purview of this Agreement, except for its or their own negligence,
lack of good faith or willful misconduct. The Custodian and any director,
officer, employee or agent of the Custodian 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. In no event shall the Custodian or its
directors, officers, agents and employees be held liable for any special,
indirect or consequential damages resulting from any action taken or omitted to
be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith even if advised of
the possibility of such damages.

         Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Custodian agrees
to indemnify the Trust Fund, the Trustee and each of their respective officers,
directors and agents for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
payments, costs or expenses of any kind whatsoever that may be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against the Trustee or Trust Fund, due to any negligent
performance by the Custodian of its duties and responsibilities under this
Agreement; provided, however, that the Custodian shall not be liable to any of
the foregoing Persons for any amount and any portion of any such amount
resulting from the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of such person,
and the Custodian's reliance on instructions from the Trustee or the Master
Servicer. The provisions of this Section 3.7 shall survive the termination of
this Custodial Agreement.

         The Custodian and its directors, officers, employees and agents shall
be entitled to indemnification and defense from the Trust Fund for any loss,
liability or expense incurred without negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith
on their part, arising out of, or in connection with, the acceptance or
administration of the custodial arrangement created hereunder, including the
costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim or liability in
connection with the exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties
hereunder.

         Section 3.8. LIMITATION OF DUTIES. THE CUSTODIAN IN ITS CAPACITY AS
SUCH:

         (a)      in the course of its review of the Mortgage Files, shall not
be required to make determinations (1) of a legal nature or (2) as to the
authority of any officer or agent of the Master Servicer, Trustee or other
entity who has executed (or certified with respect to) any document which is
part of the Mortgage File;

         (b)      shall have no duties or obligations other than those
specifically set forth herein or as may subsequently be agreed upon in writing
by the parties hereto and shall use the same degree of care and skill as is
reasonably expected of financial institutions acting in comparable capacities;

                                      J-7
<PAGE>

         (c)      will be regarded as making no representations and having no
responsibilities as to the validity, sufficiency, value, genuineness, ownership
or transferability of any Mortgage Loans and will not be required to and will
not make any representations as to the validity, value or genuineness of the
Mortgage Loans;

         (d)      shall not be obligated to take any legal action hereunder
which might in its judgment involve any expense or liability unless it has been
furnished with reasonable indemnity;

         (e)      may rely on and shall be protected in acting upon any
certificate, instrument, opinion, notice, letter, telegram or other document, or
any security, delivered to it and reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to
have been signed by the Master Servicer or the Trustee;

         (f)      may rely on and shall be protected in acting upon the written
instructions of the Master Servicer or the Trustee and such employees and
representatives of the Master Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, may
hereinafter designate in writing;

         (g)      may consult counsel satisfactory to it (including counsel for
the Trustee or the Master Servicer) and the opinion of such counsel shall be
full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken,
suffered, or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the
opinion of such counsel (provided that the fees of such counsel in connection
with such consultation and opinion shall be paid by the Custodian); and

         (h)      shall not be liable for any error of judgment, or for any act
done or step taken or omitted by it, in good faith, or for any mistake of fact
or law, or for anything which it may do or refrain from doing in connection
therewith, except in the case of a breach of any of the Custodian's obligations
hereunder, negligence or willful misconduct.

         The Custodian shall be held to the same standard of conduct, and shall
be entitled to the same protections, privileges and immunities as other
custodians acting in a custodial capacity are generally afforded.

         No covenant or agreement contained herein shall be deemed to be the
covenant or agreement of any member of the Board of Directors, or any director,
officer, agent, employee or representative of the Trustee, Master Servicer or
the Custodian in his or her individual capacity and none of such persons shall
be subject to any personal liability or accountability by reason of the
execution of this Agreement, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or
rule of law or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty, or otherwise.

                                   ARTICLE IV.
                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

         Section 4.1. NOTICES. All notices, requests, consents and demands and
other communications required under this Agreement or pursuant to any other
instrument or document delivered hereunder shall be in writing and, unless
otherwise specifically provided, may be delivered personally, by telegram or
telex, or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested, at the addresses specified on the signature page hereof (unless
changed

                                      J-8
<PAGE>

by the particular party whose address is stated herein by similar notice in
writing), in which case the notice will be deemed delivered when received.

         Section 4.2. AMENDMENTS. No modification or amendment of or supplement
to this Agreement shall be valid or effective unless the same is in writing and
signed by all parties hereto. The Trustee shall give prompt notice to the
Custodian of any amendment or supplement to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
and furnish the Custodian with written copies thereof.

         Section 4.3. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND

         Section 4.4. RECORDATION OF AGREEMENT. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, this Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate
public offices for real property records in all the counties or other comparable
jurisdictions in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are
situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere,
such recordation to be effected by the Depositor and at the Trust's expense, but

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

<PAGE>

         (b)      The closing for the purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans
and the closing for the issuance of the Certificates will take place on the
Closing Date at the office of the Purchaser's counsel in New York, New York or

funds by wire transfer to such account or accounts as shall be designated by the
Mortgage Loan Seller.

         SECTION 3. MORTGAGE LOAN SCHEDULES. The Mortgage Loan Seller agrees to
provide to the Purchaser as of the date hereof a preliminary listing of the
Mortgage Loans (the "PRELIMINARY MORTGAGE LOAN SCHEDULE") setting forth the
information listed on EXHIBIT 2 to this Agreement with respect to each of the
Mortgage Loans being sold by the Mortgage Loan Seller. If there are changes to
the Preliminary Mortgage Loan Schedule, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall provide
to the Purchaser as of the Closing Date a final schedule (the "FINAL MORTGAGE
LOAN SCHEDULE") setting forth the information listed on EXHIBIT 2 to this
Agreement with respect to each of the Mortgage Loans being sold by the Mortgage
Loan Seller to the Purchaser. The Final Mortgage Loan Schedule shall be
delivered to the Purchaser on the Closing Date, shall be attached to an
amendment to this Agreement to be executed on the Closing Date by the parties
hereto and shall be in form and substance mutually agreed to by the Mortgage
Loan Seller and the Purchaser (the "AMENDMENT"). If there are no changes to the
Preliminary Mortgage Loan Schedule, the Preliminary Mortgage Loan Schedule shall
be the Final Mortgage Loan Schedule for all purposes hereof.

         SECTION 4. MORTGAGE LOAN TRANSFER.

         (a)      The Purchaser will be entitled to all scheduled payments of
principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date
(regardless of when actually collected) and all payments thereof. The Mortgage
Loan Seller will be entitled to all scheduled payments of principal and interest
on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date (including payments
collected after the Cut-off Date) and all payments thereof. Such principal
amounts and any interest thereon belonging to the Mortgage Loan Seller as
described above will not be included in the aggregate outstanding principal
balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date as set forth on the Final
Mortgage Loan Schedule.

         (b)      Pursuant to various conveyancing documents to be executed on
the Closing Date and pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the
Purchaser will assign on the Closing Date all of its right, title and interest
in and to the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders. In connection with the transfer and assignment of the
Mortgage Loans, the Mortgage Loan Seller has delivered or will deliver or cause
to be delivered to the Trustee, or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, by
the Closing Date or such later date as is agreed to by the Purchaser and the
Mortgage Loan Seller (each of the Closing Date and such later date is referred
to as a "MORTGAGE FILE DELIVERY DATE"), the items of the Custodian's Mortgage
File, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in lieu of the foregoing, the Mortgage Loan Seller
may deliver the following documents, under the circumstances set forth below:
(x) in lieu of the original Mortgage, assignments to the Trustee or intervening
assignments thereof which have been delivered, are being delivered or will upon
receipt of recording information relating to the

                                      L-4
<PAGE>

Mortgage required to be included thereon, be delivered to recording offices for
recording and have not been returned in time to permit their delivery as
specified above, the Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver a true copy thereof with a
certification by the Mortgage Loan Seller or the Master Servicer, on the face of
such copy, substantially as follows: "Certified to be a true and correct copy of
the original, which has been transmitted for recording;" (y) in lieu of the
Mortgage, assignments to the Trustee or intervening assignments thereof, if the
applicable jurisdiction retains the originals of such documents or if the
originals are lost (in each case, as evidenced by a certification from the
Mortgage Loan Seller or the Master Servicer to such effect), the Mortgage Loan
Seller may deliver photocopies of such documents containing an original
certification by the judicial or other governmental authority of the
jurisdiction where such documents were recorded; and (z) in lieu of the Mortgage
Notes relating to the Mortgage Loans, each identified in the list delivered by
the Purchaser to the Trustee on the Closing Date and attached hereto as EXHIBIT
5 the Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver lost note affidavits and indemnities of
the Mortgage Loan Seller; and provided further, however, that in the case of
Mortgage Loans which have been prepaid in full after the Cut-off Date and prior
to the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan Seller, in lieu of delivering the above
documents, may deliver to the Trustee a certification by the Mortgage Loan
Seller or the Master Servicer to such effect. The Mortgage Loan Seller shall
deliver such original documents (including any original documents as to which
certified copies had previously been delivered) or such certified copies to the
Trustee, or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, promptly after they are
received. The Mortgage Loan Seller shall cause the Mortgage and intervening
assignments, if any, and the assignment of the Mortgage to be recorded not later
than 180 days after the Closing Date unless such assignment is not required to
be recorded under the terms set forth in Section 6(a) hereof.

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

         (d)      The Mortgage Loan Seller and the Purchaser acknowledge
hereunder that all of the Mortgage Loans will ultimately be assigned to LaSalle
Bank National Association, as Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders,
on the date hereof.

                                      L-5

         SECTION 5. EXAMINATION OF MORTGAGE FILES.

         (a)      On or before the Mortgage File Delivery Date, the Mortgage
Loan Seller will have made the Mortgage Files available to the Purchaser or its
agent for examination which may be at the offices of the Trustee or the Mortgage
Loan Seller and/or the Mortgage Loan Seller's custodian. The fact that the
Purchaser or its agent has conducted or has failed to conduct any partial or
complete examination of the Mortgage Files shall not affect the Purchaser's
rights to demand cure, repurchase, substitution or other relief as provided in
this Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall
make the Mortgage Files available to the Purchaser or its agent from time to
time so as to permit the Purchaser to confirm the Mortgage Loan Seller's
compliance with the delivery and recordation requirements of this Agreement and
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In addition, upon request of the Purchaser,
the Mortgage Loan Seller agrees to provide to the Purchaser, Bear Stearns and to
any investors or prospective investors in the Certificates information regarding
the Mortgage Loans and their servicing, to make the Mortgage Files available to
the Purchaser, Bear Stearns and to such investors or prospective investors
(which may be at the offices of the Mortgage Loan Seller and/or the Mortgage
Loan Seller's custodian) and to make available personnel knowledgeable about the
Mortgage Loans for discussions with the Purchaser, Bear Stearns and such
investors or prospective investors, upon reasonable request during regular
business hours, sufficient to permit the Purchaser, Bear Stearns and such
investors or potential investors to conduct such due diligence as any such party
reasonably believes is appropriate.

         (b)      Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, on the
Closing Date the Trustee (or the Custodian as obligated under the Custodial
Agreement) for the benefit of the Certificateholders will review items of the
Mortgage Files as set forth on EXHIBIT 1 and will deliver to the Mortgage Loan
Seller an initial certification in the form attached as Exhibit One to the
Custodial Agreement.

         (c)      Within 90 days of the Closing Date, the Trustee or the
Custodian on its behalf shall, in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, deliver to the Mortgage Loan Seller and
the Trustee an Interim Certification in the form attached as Exhibit Two to the
Custodial Agreement to the effect that all such documents have been executed and
received and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on the
Mortgage Loan Schedule, except for any exceptions listed on Schedule A attached
to such Interim Certification. The Custodian shall be under no duty or
obligation to inspect, review or examine said documents, instruments,
certificates or other papers to determine that the same are genuine,
enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have
actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on
their face.

         (d)      The Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf will review the
Mortgage Files within 180 days of the Closing Date and will deliver to the
Mortgage Loan Seller and the Master Servicer, and if reviewed by the Custodian,
the Trustee, a final certification substantially in the form of Exhibit Three to
the Custodial Agreement. If the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf is unable
to deliver a final certification with respect to the items listed in EXHIBIT 1
due to any document that is missing, has not been executed, is unrelated,
determined on the basis of the Mortgagor name, original principal balance and
loan number, to the Mortgage Loans identified

                                      L-6
<PAGE>

in the Final Mortgage Loan Schedule (a "MATERIAL DEFECT"), the Trustee or the
Custodian on its behalf shall notify the Mortgage Loan Seller of such Material
Defect. The Mortgage Loan Seller shall correct or cure any such Material Defect
within 90 days from the date of notice from the Trustee, the Depositor or the
Master Servicer of the Material Defect and if the Mortgage Loan Seller does not
correct or cure such Material Defect within such period and such defect
materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in the
related Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Loan Seller will, in accordance with the
terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, within 90 days of the date of
notice, provide the Trustee with a Replacement Mortgage Loan (if within two
years of the Closing Date) or purchase the related Mortgage Loan at the
applicable Purchase Price; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if such defect relates solely
to the inability of the Mortgage Loan Seller to deliver the original security
instrument or intervening assignments thereof, or a certified copy because the
originals of such documents, or a certified copy, have not been returned by the
applicable jurisdiction, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be required to
purchase such Mortgage Loan if the Mortgage Loan Seller delivers such original
documents or certified copy promptly upon receipt, but in no event later than
360 days after the Closing Date. The foregoing repurchase obligation shall not
apply in the event that the Mortgage Loan Seller cannot deliver such original or
copy of any document submitted for recording to the appropriate recording office
in the applicable jurisdiction because such document has not been returned by
such office; provided that the Mortgage Loan Seller shall instead deliver a
recording receipt of such recording office or, if such receipt is not available,
a certificate of Mortgage Loan Seller or a Servicing Officer confirming that
such documents have been accepted for recording, and delivery to the Trustee
shall be effected by the Mortgage Loan Seller within thirty days of its receipt
of the original recorded document.

         (e)      At the time of any substitution, the Mortgage Loan Seller
shall deliver or cause to be delivered the Replacement Mortgage Loan, the
related Mortgage File and any other documents and payments required to be
delivered in connection with a substitution pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. At the time of any purchase or substitution, the Trustee
shall (i) assign the selected Mortgage Loan to the Mortgage Loan Seller and
shall release or cause the Custodian to release the documents (including, but
not limited to, the Mortgage, Mortgage Note and other contents of the Mortgage
File) in the possession of the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable relating
to the Deleted Mortgage Loan and (ii) execute and deliver such instruments of
transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to
vest in the Mortgage Loan Seller title to such Deleted Mortgage Loan.

         SECTION 6. RECORDATION OF ASSIGNMENTS OF MORTGAGE.

         (a)      The Mortgage Loan Seller will, promptly after the Closing
Date, cause each Mortgage and each assignment of Mortgage from the Mortgage Loan
Seller to the Trustee, and all unrecorded intervening assignments, if any,
delivered on or prior to the Closing Date, to be recorded in all recording
offices in the jurisdictions where the related Mortgaged Properties are located;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, the Mortgage Loan Seller need not cause to be recorded any
assignment which relates to a Mortgage Loan that is a MOM Loan or for which the
related Mortgaged Property is located in any jurisdiction under the laws of
which, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered by the Mortgage Loan
Seller to the Trustee and the Rating Agencies, the recordation of such
assignment is not necessary to protect the Trustee's interest in

                                      L-7
<PAGE>

the related Mortgage Loan; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, notwithstanding the delivery of
any Opinion of Counsel, each assignment of Mortgage shall be submitted for
recording by the Mortgage Loan Seller in the manner described above, at no
expense to the Trust Fund or Trustee, upon the earliest to occur of (i)
reasonable direction by the Holders of Certificates evidencing Percentage
Interests aggregating not less than 25% of the Trust, (ii) the occurrence of an
Event of Default, (iii) the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or
foreclosure relating to the Mortgage Loan Seller under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, (iv) the occurrence of a servicing transfer or an assignment of the
servicing as described in Section 7.07 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or
(iv) with respect to any one assignment of Mortgage, the occurrence of a
bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor under the
related Mortgage.

         While each such Mortgage or assignment is being recorded, if necessary,
the Mortgage Loan Seller shall leave or cause to be left with the Trustee or the
Custodian on its behalf a certified copy of such Mortgage or assignment. In the
event that, within 180 days of the Closing Date, the Trustee has not been
provided with an Opinion of Counsel as described above or received evidence of
recording with respect to each Mortgage Loan delivered to the Purchaser pursuant
to the terms hereof or as set forth above and the related Mortgage Loan is not a
MOM Loan, the failure to provide evidence of recording or such Opinion of
Counsel shall be considered a Material Defect, and the provisions of Section
5(c) and (d) shall apply. All customary recording fees and reasonable expenses
relating to the recordation of the assignments of mortgage to the Trustee or the
Opinion of Counsel, as the case may be, shall be borne by the Mortgage Loan
Seller.

         (b)      It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the
conveyance of the Mortgage Loans by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Purchaser,
as contemplated by this Agreement be, and be treated as, a sale. It is, further,
not the intention of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the
Mortgage Loans by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or
other obligation of the Mortgage Loan Seller. However, in the event that,
notwithstanding the intent of the parties, the Mortgage Loans are held by a
court to continue to be property of the Mortgage Loan Seller, then (a) this
Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of
Articles 8 and 9 of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code; (b) the transfer of
the Mortgage Loans provided for herein shall be deemed to be a grant by the
Mortgage Loan Seller to the Purchaser of a security interest in all of the
Mortgage Loan Seller's right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans
and all amounts payable to the holders of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with
the terms thereof and all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary,
of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other property, to the
extent the Purchaser would otherwise be entitled to own such Mortgage Loans and
proceeds pursuant to Section 4 hereof, including all amounts, other than
investment earnings, from time to time held or invested in any accounts created
pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, whether in the form of cash,
instruments, securities or other property; (c) the possession by the Purchaser
or the Trustee (or the Custodian on its behalf) of Mortgage Notes and such other
items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or
chattel paper shall be deemed to be "possession by the secured party" for
purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to Section 9-305 (or
comparable provision) of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code; and (d)
notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or
confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be

                                      L-8
<PAGE>

deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from,
financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Purchaser for
the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. Any
assignment of the interest of the Purchaser pursuant to any provision hereof or
pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall also be deemed to be an
assignment of any security interest created hereby. The Mortgage Loan Seller and
the Purchaser shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such
actions as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were
deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans, such security
interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority
under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         SECTION 7. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF MORTGAGE LOAN SELLER
CONCERNING THE MORTGAGE LOANS. The Mortgage Loan Seller hereby represents and
warrants to the Purchaser as of the Closing Date or such other date as may be
specified below with respect to each Mortgage Loan being sold by it:

         (a)      The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule on the
Closing Date is complete, true and correct.

         (b)      All payments required to be made prior to the Cut-off Date
with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been made and no Mortgage Loan is
delinquent thirty one or more days; and the Mortgage Loan Seller has not
advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance of funds
from a party other than the owner of the Mortgaged Property subject to the
Mortgage, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount required under
any Mortgage Loan.

         (c)      If any of the Mortgage Loans are secured by a leasehold
interest, with respect to each leasehold interest: the use of leasehold estates
for residential properties is an accepted practice in the area where the related
Mortgaged Property is located; residential property in such area consisting of
leasehold estates is readily marketable; the lease is recorded and no party is
in any way in breach of any provision of such lease; the leasehold is in full
force and effect and is not subject to any prior lien or encumbrance by which
the leasehold could be terminated or subject to any charge or penalty; and the
remaining term of the lease does not terminate less than ten years after the
maturity date of such Mortgage Loan.

         (d)      Except with respect to taxes, insurance and other amounts
previously advanced by a prior servicer with respect to any Mortgage Loan, there
are no delinquent taxes, water charges, sewer rents, assessments, insurance
premiums, leasehold payments, including assessments payable in future
installments, or other outstanding charges affecting the related Mortgaged
Property.

         (e)      The terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not been
impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written
instruments which in the case of the Mortgage Loans are in the Mortgage File and
have been or will be recorded, if necessary to protect the interests of the
Trustee, and which have been or will be delivered to the Trustee, all in
accordance with this Agreement. The substance of any such waiver, alteration or
modification has been approved by the title insurer, to the extent required by
the related policy.

                                      L-9
<PAGE>

No Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with
an assumption agreement approved by the title insurer, to the extent required by
the policy, and which assumption agreement in the case of the Mortgage Loans is
part of the Mortgage File.

         (f)      The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any
right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of
usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note and the
Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Mortgage
unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of rescission,
set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury and no such
right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with
respect thereto.

         (g)      All buildings upon, or comprising part of, the Mortgaged
Property are insured by an insurer acceptable to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are
customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, and such insurer
is licensed to do business in the state where the Mortgaged Property is located.
All such insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the
originator, its successors and assigns as mortgagee and Mortgage Loan Seller has
received no notice that all premiums thereon have not been paid. If upon
origination of the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgaged Property was, or was
subsequently deemed to be, in an area identified in the Federal Register by the
Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such
flood insurance has been made available), which require under applicable law
that a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines
of the Federal Insurance Administration (or any successor thereto) be obtained,
such flood insurance policy is in effect which policy is with a generally
acceptable carrier in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of
(A) the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, (B) the minimum
amount required to compensate for damage or loss on a replacement cost basis, or
(C) the maximum amount of insurance that is available under the Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973. The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to
maintain all such insurance at Mortgagor's cost and expense and, on the
Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to maintain
such insurance at Mortgagor's cost and expense and to obtain reimbursement
therefor from the Mortgagor.

         (h)      Each loan at the time it was made complied in all material
respects with applicable local, state and federal laws, including but not
limited to, all applicable anti-predatory and abusive lending laws.

         (i)      The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled, subordinated,
or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged Property has not been
released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any
instrument been executed that would effect any such release, cancellation,
subordination or rescission.

         (j)      The Mortgage is a valid, existing and enforceable first or
second lien on the Mortgaged Property, including all improvements on the
Mortgaged Property, if any, subject only to (1) the lien of current real
property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable, (2) covenants,
conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the
public record as of the date of recording being acceptable to mortgage lending
institutions generally and specifically referred to in the lender's title
insurance policy delivered to the originator of the

                                      L-10
<PAGE>

Mortgage Loan and which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the
Mortgaged Property and (3) other matters to which like properties are commonly
subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security
intended to be provided by the Mortgage. The Mortgage Loan Seller has full right
to sell and assign the Mortgage to the Purchaser.

         (k)      The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are genuine and
each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or general principles
of equity.

         (l)      All parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had the
legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan transaction and to execute and
deliver the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, and the Mortgage Note and the
Mortgage have been duly and properly executed by such parties.

         (m)      The proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed
and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder and any and all
requirements as to completion of any on-site or off-site improvement and as to
disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have been complied with. All costs,
fees and expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the
recording of the Mortgage were paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any
refund of any amounts paid or due under the Mortgage Note or Mortgage.

         (n)      Immediately prior to the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans by
the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Purchaser hereunder, the Mortgage Loan Seller
was the sole owner and holder of the Mortgage Loan; the related Originator or
the Mortgage Loan Seller was the custodian of the related escrow account, if
applicable; the Mortgage Loan had neither been assigned nor pledged, and the
Mortgage Loan Seller had good and marketable title thereto, and had full right
to transfer and sell the Mortgage Loan and the related servicing rights to the
Purchaser free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, lien, pledge, charge, claim
or security interest subject to the applicable servicing agreement and had full
right and authority subject to no interest or participation of, or agreement
with, any other party, to sell and assign the Mortgage Loan and the related
servicing rights, subject to the applicable servicing agreement, to the
Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

         (o)      All parties which have had any interest in the Mortgage,
whether as mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the period
in which they held and disposed of such interest, were) (1) in compliance with
any and all applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the state wherein
the Mortgaged Property is located, and (2) organized under the laws of such
state, qualified to do business in such state, a federal savings and loan
association or national bank having principal offices in such state or not
deemed to be doing business in such state under applicable law.

         (p)      The Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA lender's title
insurance policy or equivalent form acceptable to the Department of Housing and
Urban Development, or any successor thereto, and qualified to do business in the
jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring (subject to the
exceptions contained in clause (i) above) the Mortgage Loan Seller (as
assignee), its successors and assigns as to the first priority lien of the
Mortgage in the

                                      L-11
<PAGE>

original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan. Additionally, such lender's
title insurance policy affirmatively insures ingress and egress, and against
encroachments by or upon the Mortgaged Property or any interest therein. With
respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Loan Seller (as assignee) is the
sole insured of such lender's title insurance policy, and such lender's title
insurance policy is in full force and effect. No claims have been made under
such lender's title insurance policy, and no prior holder of the related
Mortgage, including the Mortgage Loan Seller, has done, by act or omission,
anything which would impair the coverage of such lender's title insurance
policy.

         (q)      Except as provided in clause (b), immediately prior to the
Cut-off Date, there was no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration
existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and there was no event which,
with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure
period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration,
and the Mortgage Loan Seller has not waived any default, breach, violation or
event of acceleration.

         (r)      There are no mechanics' or similar liens or claims which have
been filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under
law could give rise to such lien) affecting the related Mortgaged Property which
are or may be liens prior to or equal with, the lien of the related Mortgage.

         (s)      At the time of origination, each Mortgaged Property was the
subject of an appraisal which conformed to the underwriting requirements of the
originator of the Mortgage Loan and, the appraisal is in a form acceptable to
Fannie Mae or FHLMC.

         (t)      The origination, servicing and collection practices with
respect to each Mortgage Note and Mortgage including, the establishment,
maintenance and servicing of the escrow accounts and escrow payments, if any,
since origination, have been conducted in all respects in accordance with the
terms of Mortgage Note and in compliance with all applicable laws and
regulations and, unless otherwise required by law or Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac
standards, in accordance with the proper, prudent and customary practices in the
mortgage origination and servicing business. With respect to the escrow accounts
and escrow payments, if any, and a Mortgage Loan all such payments are in the
possession or under the control of the Mortgage Loan Seller (including pursuant
to a Subservicing Agreement) and there exists no deficiencies in connection
therewith for which customary arrangements for repayment thereof have not been
made. Any interest required to be paid pursuant to state and local law has been
properly paid and credited.

         (u)      The Mortgaged Property is free of material damage and waste
and there is no proceeding pending for the total or partial condemnation
thereof.

         (v)      The Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions to
render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the
realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security
intended to be provided thereby, including, (1) in the case of a Mortgage
designated as a deed of trust, by trustee's sale, and (2) otherwise by judicial
foreclosure. There is no other exemption available to the Mortgagor which would
interfere with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee's sale or
the right to foreclose the Mortgage.

Seller has no knowledge of any relief requested or allowed to the Mortgagor
under the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act.

         (w)      The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any
collateral except the lien of the applicable Mortgage.

         (x)      In the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a
trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been properly
designated and currently so serves and is named in the Mortgage, and no fees or
expenses are or will become payable by the Certificateholders to the trustee
under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee's sale after
default by the Mortgagor.

         (y)      No Mortgage Loan contains a permanent or temporary "buydown"
provision. The Mortgage Loan is not a graduated payment mortgage loan.

         (z)      The Mortgagor has received all disclosure materials required
by applicable law with respect to the making of the Mortgage Loan.

         (aa)     No Mortgage Loan was made in connection with the construction
or rehabilitation of a Mortgaged Property.

         (bb)     To the best of Mortgage Loan Seller's knowledge, the Mortgaged
Property is lawfully occupied under applicable law and all inspections, licenses
and certificates required to be made or issued with respect to all occupied
portions of the Mortgaged Property and, with respect to the use and occupancy of
the same, including but not limited to certificates of occupancy, have been made
or obtained from the appropriate authorities.

         (cc)     The assignment of Mortgage with respect to a Mortgage Loan is
in recordable form and is acceptable for recording under the laws of the
jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located.

         (dd)     The Mortgaged Property consists of a single parcel of real

structure of which is permanently affixed to the Mortgaged Property, and is
legally classified as real estate.

         (ee)     Each Mortgage Loan at the time of origination was underwritten
in general in accordance with guidelines not inconsistent with the guidelines
set forth in the Prospectus Supplement and generally accepted credit
underwriting guidelines.

         (ff)     No error, omission, misrepresentation, fraud or similar
occurrence with respect to a Mortgage Loan has taken place on the part of the
Mortgage Loan Seller or the related Originator.

                                      L-13
<PAGE>

         (gg)     None of the Mortgage Loans are (a) loans subject to 12 CFR
Part 226.31, 12 CFR Part 226.32 or 12 CFR Part 226.34 of Regulation Z, the
regulation implementing TILA, which implements the Home Ownership and Equity
Protection Act of 1994 ("HOEPA") or (b) classified and/or defined as a "high
cost home loan" (or a similarly classified loan using different terminology
under a law imposing heightened regulatory scrutiny or additional legal
liability for residential mortgage loans having high interest rates, points
and/or fees) under any federal, state, or local law, including, but not limited
to, the States of Georgia or North Carolina.

         (hh)     None of the Mortgage Loans originated on or after October 1,
2002 and before March 7, 2003 was secured by property located in the State of
Georgia.

         (ii)     None of the Mortgage Loans that are secured by property
located in the State of Illinois are in violation of the provisions of the
Illinois Interest Act.

         (jj)     All points and fees related to each Group II Loan were
disclosed in writing to the borrower in accordance with applicable state and
federal law and regulation. Except in the case of a Group II Loan in an original
principal amount of less than $60,000 which would have resulted in an
unprofitable origination, no mortgagor was charged "points and fees" (whether or
not financed) in an amount greater than 5% of the principal amount of such loan,
such 5% limitation is calculated in accordance with Fannie Mae's anti-predatory
lending requirements as set forth in the Fannie Mae Selling Guide.

         (kk)     With respect to each Group II Loan that contains a provision
permitting imposition of a premium upon a prepayment prior to maturity, the
prepayment premium is disclosed to the borrower in the loan documents pursuant
to applicable state and federal law.

         (ll)     No Group II Loan is a "High-Risk Home Loan" as defined in the
Illinois High-Risk Home Loan Act effective January 1, 2004 (815 Ill. Comp. Stat.
137/1 et seq.).

         (mm)     All fees and charges (including finance charges) and whether
or not financed, assessed, collected or to be collected in connection with the
origination and servicing of each Group II Loan has been disclosed in writing to
the borrower in accordance with applicable state and federal law and regulation.

         (nn)     With respect to a Group II Loan (other than a Group II Loan
originated by Encore or People's Choice), no borrower was encouraged or required
to select a Group II Loan product offered by the Group II Loan's originator
which is a higher cost product designed for less creditworthy borrowers, unless
at the time of the Group II Loan's origination, such borrower did not qualify
taking into account credit history and debt-to-income ratios for a lower-cost
credit product then offered by the Group II Loan's originator or any affiliate
of that originator. If, at the time of loan application, the borrower may have
qualified for a lower-cost product than offered by any mortgage lending
affiliate of the Group II Loan's originator, the Group II Loan's originator
referred the borrower's application to such affiliate for underwriting
consideration.

         (oo)     With respect to a Group II Loan (other than a Group II Loan
originated by Encore or People's Choice), the methodology used in underwriting
the extension of credit for each such Mortgage Loan employs objective
mathematical principles which relate the

                                      L-14
<PAGE>

borrower's income, assets and liabilities to the proposed payment and such
underwriting methodology does not rely on the extent of the borrower's equity in
the collateral as the principal determining factor in approving such credit
extension. Such underwriting methodology confirmed that at the time of
origination (application/approval) the borrower had a reasonable ability to make
timely payments on such Mortgage Loan.

         (pp)     With respect to any Group II Loan (other than a Group II Loan
originated by Encore or People's Choice) that contains a provision permitting
imposition of a premium upon a prepayment prior to maturity: (i) prior to the
loan's origination, the borrower agreed to such premium in exchange for a
monetary benefit, including but not limited to a rate or fee reduction, (ii)
prior to the loan's origination, the borrower was offered the option of
obtaining a mortgage loan that did not require payment of such a premium, (iii)
for loans originated on or after September 1, 2004, the duration of the
prepayment period shall not exceed three (3) years from the date of the note,
unless the loan was modified to reduce the prepayment period to no more than
three years from the date of the note and the borrower was notified in writing
of such reduction in prepayment period.

         (qq)     With respect to any Group II Loan (other than a Group II Loan
originated by Encore or People's Choice), no borrower was required to purchase
any single premium credit insurance policy (e.g., life, mortgage, disability,
accident unemployment or health insurance product) or debt cancellation
agreement as a condition of obtaining the extension of credit. No borrower
obtained a prepaid single-premium credit insurance policy (e.g., life, mortgage,
disability, accident, unemployment or health insurance product) or debt
cancellation agreement in connection with the origination of a Group II Loan; No
proceeds from any Group II Loan were used to purchase single premium credit
insurance policies or debt cancellation agreements as part of the origination
of, or as a condition to closing, such Group II Loan.

         (rr)     No Group II Loan is a balloon mortgage loan that has an
original stated maturity of less than seven (7) years;

         (ss)     No Group II Loan that was originated on or after October 31,
2004 is subject to mandatory arbitration except when the terms of the
arbitration also contain a waiver provision that provides that in the event of a
sale or transfer of the Group II Loan or interest in the Group II Loan to Fannie
Mae, the terms of the arbitration are null and void and cannot be reinstated.
The Company hereby covenants that the seller or servicer of the Group II Loan,
as applicable, will notify the borrower in writing within 60 days of the sale or
transfer of the Group II Loan to Fannie Mae that the terms of arbitration are
null and void;

         (tt)     With respect to any mortgage loans in Loan Group III
originated on or after August 1, 2004 and underlying the Security, neither the
related mortgage nor the related mortgage note requires the borrower to submit
to arbitration to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to
the mortgage loan transaction;

         (uu)     None of the Group III Loans originated before October 1, 2002
imposes a Prepayment Charge for a term exceeding five years; none of the Group
III Loans originated on or after October 1, 2002 imposes a Prepayment Charge for
a term in excess of three years.

                                      L-15
<PAGE>

         (vv)     With respect to each Group III Loan, no borrower obtained a
prepaid single premium credit life, credit disability, credit unemployment or
credit property insurance policy in connection with the origination of the
mortgage loan.

         (ww)     The conforming one- to four-family mortgage loans in Loan
Group III, which may include the balance of any subordinated lien, each have an
original principal balance that does not exceed Freddie Mac's dollar amount
limits.

         (xx)     Each Group III Loan is a "qualified mortgage" under Section
860G(a)(3) of the Code.

         (yy)     None of the Mortgage Loans contains provisions pursuant to
which monthly payments are (a) paid or partially paid with funds deposited in
any separate account established by the Mortgage Loan Seller, the mortgagor, or
anyone on behalf of the mortgagor, (b) paid by any source other than the
mortgagor or (c) contains any other similar provisions which may constitute a
"buydown" provision. None of the Mortgage Loans is a graduated payment mortgage
loan and no Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation or other contingent interest
feature;

         (zz)     Each Mortgage Loan that contains a provision for the
assumption substitution of liability, pursuant to which the original mortgagor
is released from liability and another person is substituted as the mortgagor
and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note, shall be effective only if such
person satisfies the then current underwriting practices and procedures of
prudent mortgage lenders in a state in which the mortgaged property is located.

         (aaa)    The Mortgaged Property and all improvements thereon comply
with all requirements of any applicable zoning and subdivision laws and
ordinances.

         (bbb)    Each Mortgage is a valid and enforceable first or second lien
as applicable on the property securing the related Mortgage Note and each
Mortgaged Property is owned by the Mortgagor in fee simple (except with respect
to common areas in the case of condominiums, PUDs and de minimis PUDs) or by
leasehold for a term longer than the term of the related Mortgage, subject only
to (i) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments, (ii) covenants,
conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of
public record as of the date of recording of such Mortgage, such exceptions
being acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally or specifically
reflected in the appraisal obtained in connection with the origination of the
related Mortgage Loan or referred to in the lender's title insurance policy
delivered to the originator of the related Mortgage Loan and (iii) other matters
to which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere
with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage;
Appraisal Form 1004 or Form 2055 with an interior inspection for first lien
Mortgage Loans has been obtained. Form 704, 2065 or 2055 with an exterior only
inspection for junior lien Mortgage Loans has been obtained.

         (ccc)    Each Prepayment Charge is enforceable and was originated in
compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws.

                                      L-16
<PAGE>

         (ddd)    With respect to any Mortgage Loan that contains a
provision permitting imposition of a premium upon a prepayment prior to
maturity, the prepayment premium is disclosed to the borrower in the loan
documents pursuant to applicable state and federal law.

         (eee)    No Mortgage Loan is a High Cost Loan or Covered Loan, as
applicable (as such terms are defined in the then current Standard & Poor's
LEVELS(R) Glossary which is now Version 5.6b Revised (Appendix E attached hereto
as Exhibit 6).

         It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set
forth in this Section 7 will inure to the benefit of the Purchaser, its
successors and assigns, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement
on any Mortgage Note or assignment of Mortgage or the examination of any
Mortgage File. Upon any substitution for a Mortgage Loan, the representations
and warranties set forth above shall be deemed to be made by the Mortgage Loan
Seller as to any Replacement Mortgage Loan as of the date of substitution.

         Upon discovery or receipt of notice by the Mortgage Loan Seller, the
Purchaser or the Trustee of a breach of any representation or warranty of the
Mortgage Loan Seller set forth in this Section 7 which materially and adversely
affects the value of the interests of the Purchaser, the Certificateholders or
the Trustee in any of the Mortgage Loans delivered to the Purchaser pursuant to
this Agreement, the party discovering or receiving notice of such breach shall
give prompt written notice to the others. It is understood and agreed that a
breach of any one of the representations contained in clauses (gg), (hh) and
(tt) through (ww) above in respect of a Group III Loan will be deemed to
materially adversely affect the interests of the related Certificateholders. In
the case of any such breach of a representation or warranty set forth in this
Section 7, within 90 days from the date of discovery by the Mortgage Loan
Seller, or the date the Mortgage Loan Seller is notified by the party
discovering or receiving notice of such breach (whichever occurs earlier), the
Mortgage Loan Seller will (i) cure such breach in all material respects, (ii)
purchase the affected Mortgage Loan at the applicable Purchase Price or (iii) if
within two years of the Closing Date, substitute a qualifying Replacement
Mortgage Loan in exchange for such Mortgage Loan; provided that, (A) in the case
of a breach of the representation and warranty concerning the Mortgage Loan
Schedule contained in clause (a) of this Section 7, if such breach is material
and relates to any field on the Mortgage Loan Schedule which identifies any
Prepayment Charge or (B) in the case of a breach of the representation contained
in clause (ccc) of this Section 7, then, in each case, in lieu of purchasing
such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price, the Mortgage Loan
Seller shall pay the amount of the Prepayment Charge (net of any amount
previously collected by or paid to the Trust Fund in respect of such Prepayment
Charge) from its own funds and without reimbursement therefor, and the Mortgage
Loan Seller shall have no obligation to repurchase or substitute for such
Mortgage Loan. The obligations of the Mortgage Loan Seller to cure, purchase or
substitute a qualifying Replacement Mortgage Loan shall constitute the
Purchaser's, the Trustee's and the Certificateholder's sole and exclusive remedy
under this Agreement or otherwise respecting a breach of representations or
warranties hereunder with respect to the Mortgage Loans, except for the
obligation of the Mortgage Loan Seller to indemnify the Purchaser for such
breach as set forth in and limited by Section 14 hereof and except for the cure,
repurchase and substitution obligations of Encore and People's Choice under
Section 8.

<PAGE>

         Any cause of action against the Mortgage Loan Seller or relating to or
arising out of a breach by the Mortgage Loan Seller of any representations and
warranties made in this Section 7 shall accrue as to any Mortgage Loan upon (i)
discovery of such breach by the Mortgage Loan Seller or notice thereof by the
party discovering such breach and (ii) failure by the Mortgage Loan Seller to
cure such breach, purchase such Mortgage Loan or substitute a qualifying
Replacement Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms hereof.

         SECTION 8. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF ENCORE AND PEOPLE'S CHOICE
CONCERNING THE GROUP II LOANS. Encore and People's Choice each individually
hereby represent and warrant to the Purchaser as of the Closing Date or such
other date as may be specified below with respect to each Group II Loan
originated by it, as it is understood and agreed that neither Encore nor
People's Choice makes any representation or warranty as to any Mortgage Loan not
originated by it:

         (a)      No borrower was encouraged or required to select a Group II
Loan product offered by Encore or People's Choice, which is a higher cost
product designed for less creditworthy borrowers, unless at the time of the
Group II Loan's origination, such borrower did not qualify taking into account
credit history and debt-to-income ratios for a lower-cost credit product then
offered by Encore or People's Choice or any affiliate of Encore or People's
Choice. If, at the time of loan application, the borrower may have qualified for
a lower-cost credit product then offered by any mortgage lending affiliate of
Encore or People's Choice, Encore or People's Choice referred the borrower's
application to such affiliate for underwriting consideration.

         (b)      The methodology used in underwriting the extension of credit
for each Group II Loan employs objective mathematical principles which relate
the borrower's income, assets and liabilities to the proposed payment and such
underwriting methodology does not rely on the extent of the borrower's equity in
the collateral as the principal determining factor in approving such credit
extension. Such underwriting methodology confirmed that at the time of
origination (application/approval) the borrower had a reasonable ability to make
timely payments on the Group II Loan.

         (c)      With respect to any Group II Loan that contains a provision
permitting imposition of a premium upon a prepayment prior to maturity: (i)
prior to the loan's origination, the borrower agreed to such premium in exchange
for a monetary benefit, including but not limited to a rate or fee reduction
and, (ii) prior to the loan's origination, the borrower was offered the option
of obtaining a mortgage loan that did not require payment of such a premium, and
(iii) the duration of the prepayment period shall not exceed three (3) years
from the date of the note if the loan was originated on or after September 1,
2004, unless the loan was modified to reduce the prepayment period to no more
than three years from the date of the note and the borrower was notified in
writing of such reduction in prepayment period.

         (d)      No borrower was required to purchase any credit life,
disability, accident or health insurance product as a condition of obtaining the
extensions of credit. No borrower obtained a prepaid single-premium credit life,
disability, accident or health insurance policy in connection with the
origination of a Group II Loan; No proceeds from any Group II Loan were

                                      L-18
<PAGE>

used to purchase single premium credit insurance policies as part of the
origination of, or as a condition to closing, such Group II Loan.

         Upon discovery or receipt of notice by Encore or People's Choice with
respect to a Mortgage Loan originated by it, the Purchaser or the Trustee of a
breach of any representation or warranty of Encore or People's Choice set forth
in this Section 8 which materially and adversely affects the value of the
interests of the Purchaser, the Certificateholders or the Trustee in any of the
Group II Loans delivered to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, the party
discovering or receiving notice of such breach shall give prompt written notice
to the others (it being understood and agreed that notice of a breach regarding
an Encore loan should not go to People's Choice and notice of a breach regarding
a People's Choice loan should not go to Encore). In the case of any such breach
of a representation or warranty set forth in this Section 8, within 90 days from
the date of discovery by Encore or People's Choice, or the date that Encore or
People's Choice is notified by the party discovering or receiving notice of such
breach (whichever occurs earlier), Encore or People's Choice will either (i)
cure such breach in all material respects, (ii) purchase the affected Group II
Loan at the applicable Purchase Price or (iii) if within two years of the
Closing Date, substitute a qualifying Substitute Loan in exchange for such
Mortgage Loan. In addition to the obligations of the Mortgage Loan Seller under
Section 7, the obligations of Encore or People's Choice to cure, purchase or
substitute a qualifying Replacement Mortgage Loan shall constitute the
Purchaser's, the Trustee's and the Certificateholder's sole and exclusive remedy
under this Agreement or otherwise respecting a breach of representations or
warranties hereunder with respect to the Group II Loans.

         Any cause of action against Encore or People's Choice or relating to or
arising out of a breach by Encore or People's Choice of any representations and
warranties made in this Section 8 shall accrue as to any Mortgage Loan upon (i)
discovery of such breach by Encore or People's Choice or notice thereof by the
party discovering such breach and (ii) failure by Encore or People's Choice to
cure such breach, purchase such Group II Loan or substitute a qualifying
Replacement Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms hereof, it being understood and
agreed that neither Encore not People's Choice shall have any obligation or
liability with respect to any Mortgage Loan not originated by it.

         SECTION 14. INDEMNIFICATION.

         (a)      The Mortgage Loan Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the
Purchaser and its directors, officers and controlling persons (as defined in
Section 15 of the Securities Act) from and against any loss, claim, damage or
liability or action in respect thereof, to which they or any of them may become
subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon (i) any untrue
statement of a material fact contained in the MORTGAGE LOAN SELLER'S INFORMATION
as identified in EXHIBIT 3, the omission to state in the Prospectus Supplement
or Prospectus (or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto approved by the
Mortgage Loan Seller and in which additional Mortgage Loan Seller's Information
is identified), in reliance upon and in conformity with Mortgage Loan Seller's
Information a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein in light of the circumstances in which they were made,
not misleading, (ii) any representation or warranty assigned or made by the
Mortgage Loan Seller in Section 7 or Section 9 hereof being, or alleged to be,
untrue or incorrect, or (iii) any failure by the Mortgage Loan Seller to perform
its obligations under this Agreement; and the Mortgage Loan Seller shall
reimburse the Purchaser and each other indemnified party for any legal and other
expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or
defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability
or action.

         The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which
the Mortgage Loan Seller otherwise may have to the Purchaser or any other such
indemnified party.

         (b)      The Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Mortgage
Loan Seller and its respective directors, officers and controlling persons (as
defined in Section 15 of the Securities Act) from and against any loss, claim,
damage or liability or action in respect thereof, to which they or any of them
may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon (i) any
untrue statement of a material fact contained in the PURCHASER'S INFORMATION as
identified in EXHIBIT 4, the omission to state in the Prospectus Supplement or
Prospectus (or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto approved by the
Purchaser and in which additional Purchaser's Information is identified), in
reliance upon and in conformity with the Purchaser's Information, a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, (ii) any
representation or warranty made by the Purchaser in Section 10 hereof being, or
alleged to be, untrue or incorrect, or (iii) any failure by the Purchaser to
perform its obligations under this Agreement; and the Purchaser shall reimburse
the Mortgage Loan Seller, and each other indemnified party for any legal and
other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or
defending or preparing to defend any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action. The foregoing indemnity

                                      L-25
<PAGE>

agreement is in addition to any liability which the Purchaser otherwise may have
to the Mortgage Loan Seller, or any other such indemnified party.

         (c)      Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under
subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such
indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the
indemnifying party under such subsection, notify each party against whom
indemnification is to be sought in writing of the commencement thereof (but the
failure so to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any
liability which it may have under this Section 14 except to the extent that it
has been prejudiced in any material respect by such failure or from any
liability which it may have otherwise). In case any such action is brought
against any indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate
therein and, to the extent it may elect by written notice delivered to the
indemnified party promptly (but, in any event, within 30 days) after receiving
the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof
with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to employ
its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such
counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party or parties unless (i)
the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by one of
the indemnifying parties in connection with the defense of such action, (ii) the
indemnifying parties shall not have employed counsel to have charge of the
defense of such action within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of
the action, or (iii) such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably
concluded that there is a conflict of interest between itself or themselves and
the indemnifying party in the conduct of the defense of any claim or that the
interests of the indemnified party or parties are not substantially co-extensive
with those of the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying parties
shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the
indemnified party or parties), in any of which events such fees and expenses
shall be borne by the indemnifying parties (PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
indemnifying party shall be liable only for the fees and expenses of one counsel
in addition to one local counsel in the jurisdiction involved. Anything in this
subsection to the contrary notwithstanding, an indemnifying party shall not be
liable for any settlement or any claim or action effected without its written
consent; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such consent was not unreasonably withheld.

         (d)      If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b)
of this Section 14 shall for any reason be unavailable to an indemnified party
in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect
thereof, referred to in Section 14, then the indemnifying party shall in lieu of
indemnifying the indemnified party contribute to the amount paid or payable by
such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or
action in respect thereof, in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect
the relative benefits received by the Mortgage Loan Seller on the one hand and
the Purchaser on the other from the purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans, the
offering of the Certificates and the other transactions contemplated hereunder.
No person found liable for a fraudulent misrepresentation shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who is not also found liable for such fraudulent
misrepresentation.

<PAGE>

         (e)      The parties hereto agree that reliance by an indemnified party
on any publicly available information or any information or directions furnished
by an indemnifying party shall not constitute negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct by such indemnified party.

         SECTION 15. NOTICES. All demands, notices and communications hereunder

assignment, the Trustee shall succeed to the applicable rights and obligations

Loan Seller's obligation to close set forth under Section 11(b) hereof are not
fulfilled as and when required to be fulfilled. In the event of termination
pursuant to clause (b), the Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay, and in the event of
termination pursuant to clause (c), the Purchaser shall pay, all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the other in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement. In the event of a termination pursuant to clause
(a), each party shall be responsible for its own expenses.

         SECTION 18. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS TO SURVIVE

Agreement, or contained in certificates of officers of the Mortgage Loan Seller
submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect
and shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser (and by the

         modification or substitution agreements, if any; provided, however,
         that in lieu of the foregoing, the Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver the

         Mortgage Notes relating to the Mortgage Loans identified in the list
         set forth in Exhibit J to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the
         Purchaser may deliver a lost note affidavit and indemnity and a copy of
         the original note, if available; and provided, further, however, that
         in the case of Mortgage Loans which have been prepaid in full after the
         Cut-Off Date and prior to the Closing Date, the Purchaser, in lieu of
         delivering the above documents, may deliver to the Trustee and its
         Custodian a certification of a Servicing Officer to such effect and in
         such case shall deposit all amounts paid in respect of such Mortgage
         Loans, in the Protected Account or in the Distribution Account on the
         Closing Date. In the case of the documents referred to in clause (x)
         above, the Purchaser shall deliver such documents to the Trustee or its
         Custodian promptly after they are received. The Mortgage Loan Seller
         shall cause, at its expense, the Mortgage and intervening assignments,
         if any, and to the extent required in accordance with the foregoing,
         the assignment of the Mortgage to the Trustee to be submitted for
         recording promptly after the Closing Date; provided that the Mortgage
         Loan Seller need not cause to be recorded any assignment (a) in any
         jurisdiction under the laws of which, as evidenced by an Opinion of
         Counsel addressed to the Trustee delivered by the Mortgage Loan Seller
         to the Trustee and the Rating Agencies, the recordation of such
         assignment is not necessary to protect the Trustee's interest in the
         related Mortgage Loan or (b) if MERS is identified on the Mortgage or
         on a properly recorded assignment of the Mortgage as mortgagee of
         record solely as nominee for Mortgage Loan Seller and its successors
         and assigns. In the event that the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Purchaser
         or the Master Servicer gives written notice to the Trustee that a court
         has recharacterized the sale of the Mortgage Loans as a financing, the
         Mortgage Loan Seller shall submit or cause to be submitted for
         recording as specified above or, should the Mortgage Loan Seller fail
         to perform such obligations, the Master Servicer shall cause each such
         previously unrecorded assignment to be submitted for recording as
         specified above at the expense of the Trust. In the event a Mortgage
         File is released to the Mortgage Loan Seller or the Master Servicer as
         a result of such Person having completed a Request for Release, the
         Custodian shall, if not so completed, complete the assignment of the
         related Mortgage in the manner specified in clause (iii) above.

      APPENDIX E - STANDARD & POOR'S ANTI-PREDATORY LENDING CATEGORIZATION

Standard & Poor's has categorized loans governed by anti-predatory lending laws
in the Jurisdictions listed below into three categories based upon a combination
of factors that include (a) the risk exposure associated with the assignee
liability and (b) the tests and thresholds set forth in those laws. Note that
certain loans classified by the relevant statute as Covered are included in
Standard & Poor's High Cost Loan Category because they included thresholds and
tests that are typical of what is generally considered High Cost by the
industry.

provisions of this Agreement and the Definitions or the ISDA Form Master
Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail for purposes of the Transaction. Each
reference to a "Section" (unless specifically referencing the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement or the Swap Administration Agreement) or to a "Section" "of
this Agreement" will be construed as a reference to a Section of the ISDA Form
Master Agreement.

(o) Additional Provisions. The provisions of Sections 5(a)(ii), 5(a)(iii) and
5(a)(iv) shall not apply to BNY or Counterparty.

7) "Affiliate": BNY and Counterparty shall be deemed to not have any Affiliates
for purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of Section 6(b)(ii).

8) Additional Termination Events. Additional Termination Events will apply:

         (a) If a Rating Agency Downgrade has occurred and BNY has not, within
30 days, complied with Section 9 below, then an Additional Termination Event
shall have occurred with respect to BNY and BNY shall be the sole Affected Party
with respect to such an Additional Termination Event.

         (b) If the Trustee is unable to pay its Class I-A, II-A or III-A
Certificates or fails or admits in writing its inability to pay its Class I-A,
II-A or III-A Certificates as they become due, then an Additional Termination
Event shall have occurred with respect to Counterparty and Counterparty shall be
the sole Affected Party with respect to such Additional Termination Event.

         (c) If (i) the Majority Class CE Certificate holder or the Master
Servicer gives notice pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement to BNY or the Trustee of its intent to terminate the Trust Fund under
Section 10.01(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, (ii) a final
distribution notice is given to BNY or to the Certificate holders under Section
10.02(i) of the Pooling and Servicing or (iii) any other notice of early
termination of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or a final distribution
thereunder is provided to the Trustee, the Certificate holders or BNY, then an
Additional Termination Event shall have occurred and Counterparty shall be the
sole Affected Party with respect thereto.

9) Rating Agency Downgrade. In the event that BNY's short-term unsecured and
unsubordinated debt rating is withdrawn or reduced below "A-1" by S&P or its
long-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating is withdrawn or reduced below
"Aa3" by Moody's (and together with S&P, the "Swap Rating Agencies", and such
rating thresholds, "Approved Rating Thresholds"), then within 30 days after such
rating withdrawal or downgrade (unless, within 30 days after such withdrawal or
downgrade, each such Swap Rating Agency, as applicable, has reconfirmed the
rating of the Bear Stearns Asset Backed Securities I Trust 2005-HE3, Asset
Backed Certificates, Series 2005-HE3 (the "Certificates") and CMO Holdings II
Ltd., Series BSABS HE3 NIM TRUST 2005-3 Notes (the "Notes"), which was in effect
immediately prior to such withdrawal or downgrade), BNY shall, at its own
expense, subject to the Rating Agency Condition, either (i) seek another entity
to replace BNY as party to this Agreement that meets or exceeds the Approved
Rating Thresholds and that is approved by the Swap Administrator (which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld) on terms substantially similar to this
Agreement or (ii) obtain a guaranty of, or a contingent agreement of another
person with the Approved Rating Thresholds, to honor,

                                      M-10

<PAGE>

BNY's obligations under this Agreement; provided that such other person is
approved by the Swap Administrator (in writing), such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld. BNY's failure to do any of the foregoing shall, at the
Counterparty's option, constitute an Additional Termination Event with BNY as
the Affected Party. For purposes of this provision, "Rating Agency Condition"
means, with respect to any particular proposed act or omission to act hereunder
that the party acting or failing to act must consult with any of the Swap Rating
Agencies then providing a rating of the Certificates and Notes and receive from
the Swap Rating Agencies a prior written confirmation that the proposed action
or inaction would not cause a downgrade or withdrawal of the then-current rating
of the Certificates and Notes.

10) Payment Instructions. BNY hereby agrees that, unless notified in writing by
the Counterparty of other payment instructions, any and all amounts payable by
BNY to the Counterparty under this Agreement shall be paid to the Counterparty
at the account specified in Section 5.

11) Section 3 of the ISDA Form Master Agreement is hereby amended by adding at
the end thereof the following subsection (g):

         "(g) Relationship Between Parties.

                        Each party represents to the other party on each date

12) NON-RECOURSE. Notwithstanding any provision herein or in the ISDA Form
Master Agreement to the contrary, the obligations of Counterparty hereunder are
limited recourse obligations of Counterparty, payable solely from the Swap
Account and the proceeds thereof, in accordance with the terms of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and the Swap Administration Agreement. In the event that
the Swap Account and proceeds thereof should be insufficient to satisfy all
claims outstanding and following the realization of the Swap Account and the
proceeds thereof, any claims against or obligations of Counterparty under the
ISDA Form Master Agreement or any other confirmation thereunder still
outstanding shall be extinguished and thereafter not revive. The Swap
Administrator shall not have liability for any failure or delay in making a
payment hereunder to BNY due to any failure or delay in receiving amounts in the
Swap Account from the Trust created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.

13) TRANSFER, AMENDMENT AND ASSIGNMENT. No transfer, amendment, waiver,
supplement, assignment or other modification of this Transaction shall be
permitted by either party unless (i) each of S&P and Moody's have been provided
notice of the same (ii) S&P and Moody's confirm in writing (including by
facsimile transmission) within five Business Days after such notice is given
that they will not downgrade, qualify, withdraw or otherwise modify their
then-current rating of the Certificates and (iii) S&P confirms in writing
(including by facsimile transmission) within five Business Days after such
notice is given that it will not downgrade, qualify, withdraw or otherwise
modify its then-current rating of the Notes.

14) Proceedings. BNY shall not institute against or cause any other person to
institute against, or join any other person in instituting against Counterparty,
the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the trust formed pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement or CMO Holdings II Ltd. any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under
any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law for a period of one year and one
day (or, if longer, the applicable preference period) following payment in full
of the Certificates
