Schedule A   Mortgage Loan Schedule

<PAGE>

         This TRUST AGREEMENT, dated as of May 1, 2000 (the "Agreement"), is
by and among STRUCTURED ASSET SECURITIES CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation,
as depositor (the "Depositor"), LEHMAN BROTHERS HOLDINGS INC., as seller (the
"Seller"), NORWEST BANK MINNESOTA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as master servicer
(the "Master Servicer"), THE MURRAYHILL COMPANY, a Colorado corporation, as
loss mitigation advisor (the "Loss Mitigation Advisor"), FIRST UNION NATIONAL
BANK, a national banking association, as trustee (the "Trustee"), and the
FEDERAL HOME LOAN MORTGAGE CORPORATION, as guarantor (the "Guarantor").

                             PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

         The Depositor has acquired the Mortgage Loans from the Seller, and at
the Closing Date is the owner of the Mortgage Loans and the other property
being conveyed by it to the Trustee hereunder for inclusion in the Trust Fund.
On the Closing Date, the Depositor will acquire the Certificates from the
Trust Fund, as consideration for its transfer to the Trust Fund of the
Mortgage Loans and the other property constituting the Trust Fund. The
Depositor has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Agreement to
provide for the conveyance to the Trustee of the Mortgage Loans and the other
property constituting the Trust Fund. All covenants and agreements made by the
Seller in the Mortgage Loan Sale and Assignment Agreement and by the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee herein with respect to the
Mortgage Loans and the other property constituting the Trust Fund are for the
benefit of the Holders from time to time of the Certificates and the
Guarantor. The Depositor, the Seller, the Trustee, the Guarantor, the Master
Servicer and the Loss Mitigation Advisor are entering into this Agreement, and
the Trustee is accepting the Trust Fund created hereby, for good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged.

         As provided herein, the Trustee shall elect that each of the
segregated pools of assets of the Trust Fund described below be treated for
federal income tax purposes as comprising a real estate mortgage investment
conduit (each a "REMIC" or, in the alternative, REMIC 1 and REMIC 2, REMIC 2
also being referred to as the "Upper Tier REMIC"). Each Certificate, other
than the Class X Certificate, the Class R Certificate, and the Class P
Certificate, represents ownership of a regular interest in the Upper Tier
REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Class X Certificate represents
ownership of two regular interests in the Upper Tier REMIC as described in
note 7 of the table below for such REMIC. In addition, each Certificate, other
than the Class R, Class X, and Class P Certificates, represents the right to
receive payments with respect to any Basis Risk Shortfalls from the Basis Risk
Reserve Fund pursuant to Section 5.07. The Class R Certificate represents
ownership of the sole class of residual interests in each of REMIC 1 and the
Upper Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Upper Tier REMIC
shall hold as its assets the several classes of uncertificated Lower Tier
Interests, other than the Class LT-R Interest, in REMIC 1. Each such Lower
Tier Interest, other than the Class LT-R Interest, is hereby designated as a
regular interest in REMIC 1. REMIC 1 shall hold as its assets the property of
the Trust Fund other than the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1, the Basis Risk
Reserve Fund, the right to receive Prepayment Premiums, and the Escrow
Accounts. The startup day for each REMIC created hereby for purposes of the
REMIC Provisions is the Closing Date. In addition, for purposes of the REMIC
Provisions, the latest possible maturity date for each regular interest in
each REMIC created hereby is the latest date specified in Section 7.01.

         The following table sets forth (or describes) the class designation,
interest rate, and principal amount for each class of REMIC 1 Lower Tier
Interests.

equals 50% of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans in Pool 1
on such Distribution Date. For any Distribution Date, Realized Losses
attributable to Pool 2 shall be allocated first to the Class Q Interest until

         On each Distribution Date on or before which the Class Principal
Amount of the Class A1 Certificate has been reduced to zero, the Principal
Distribution Amount for each Mortgage Pool (together with any amount of
interest deferred on the Class D and Class Q Interests) and Realized Losses
for each Mortgage Pool will be allocated between the Class LT-A1 and Class
LT-A2 Interests in proportions such that immediately after such Distribution
Date, the principal balance of the Class LT-A1 Interest equals 50% of the
Certificate Principal Amount of the Class A1 Certificates and the principal
balance of the Class LT-A2 Interest equals 50% of the Certificate Principal
Amount of the Class A2 Certificates.

                           Interest equals 50% of the product of the Class
                           Principal Amount of the Class M1 Certificates and

                           Subordinate Percentage;

                  (d)      the principal balance of the Class D Interest
                           equals the excess of the Pool Balance for Pool 1
                           over the sum of the balances of the Class LT-A1,
                           Class LT-M1(1), Class LT-M2(1), and Class LT-B(1)

                           equals 50% of the product of the Class Principal
                           Amount of the Class B Certificates and the Pool 2

                      Amount of the Class M1 Certificates;

                  (c) the sum of the principal balances of the Class M2(1) and
                      Class M2(2) Interests equals 50% of the Class Principal
                      Amount of the Class M2 Certificates; and

                  (d) the sum of the principal balances of the Class B(1) and
                      Class B(2) Interests equals 50% of the Class Principal

---------------------------
(1)      The Certificate Interest Rate with respect to any Distribution Date
         (and the related Accrual Period) for the Class A1 Certificates is the
         per annum rate equal to the lesser of (i) LIBOR plus 0.14% and (ii)
         the Pool 1 Net Funds Cap for such Distribution Date; provided, that
         if the holder of the Class X Certificate does not exercise its option
         to purchase the Mortgage Loans and related property pursuant to
         Section 7.01(b) on the Distribution Date on which it is first
         entitled to do so, then with respect to each subsequent Distribution
         Date the per annum rate calculated pursuant to clause (i) above with
         respect to the Class A1 Certificates will be LIBOR plus 0.28%.

(2)      The Certificate Interest Rate with respect to any Distribution Date
         (and the related Accrual Period) for the Class A2 Certificates is the
         per annum rate equal to the lesser of (i) LIBOR plus 0.24% and (ii)
         with respect to any Distribution Date on which the Class A1
         Certificates are outstanding, the Pool 2 Net Funds Cap for such
         Distribution Date or, after the Distribution Date on which the Class
         Principal Amount of the Class A1 Certificates has been reduced to
         zero, the Average Rate; provided, that if the holder of the Class X
         Certificate does not exercise its option to purchase the Mortgage
         Loans and related property pursuant to Section 7.01(b) on the
         Distribution Date on which it is first entitled to do so, then with
         respect to each subsequent Distribution Date the per annum rate
         calculated pursuant to clause (i) above with respect to the Class A2
         Certificates will be LIBOR plus 0.48%.

(3)      The Certificate Interest Rate with respect to any Distribution Date
         (and the related Accrual Period) for the Class M1 Certificates is the
         per annum rate equal to the lesser of (i) LIBOR plus 0.55% and (ii)
         the Average Rate for such Distribution Date; provided, that if the
         holder of the Class X Certificate does not exercise its option to
         purchase the Mortgage Loans and related property pursuant to Section
         7.01(b) on the Distribution Date on which it is first entitled to do
         so, then with respect to each subsequent Distribution Date the per
         annum rate calculated pursuant to clause (i) above with respect to
         the Class M1 Certificates will be LIBOR plus 1.05%.

(4)      The Certificate Interest Rate with respect to any Distribution Date
         (and the related Accrual Period) for the Class M2 Certificates is the
         per annum rate equal to the lesser of (i) LIBOR plus 0.90% and (ii)
         the Average Rate for such Distribution Date; provided, that if the
         holder of the Class X Certificate does not exercise its option to
         purchase the Mortgage Loans and related property pursuant to Section
         7.01(b) on the Distribution Date on which it is first entitled to do
         so, then with respect to each subsequent Distribution Date the per
         annum rate calculated pursuant to clause (i) above with respect to
         the Class M2 Certificates will be LIBOR plus 1.40%.

(5)      The Certificate Interest Rate with respect to any Distribution Date
         (and the related Accrual Period) for the Class B Certificates is the

         the Average Rate for such Distribution Date; provided, that if the
         holder of the Class X Certificate does not exercise its option to
         purchase the Mortgage Loans and related property pursuant to Section
         7.01(b) on the Distribution Date on which it is first entitled to do
         so, then with respect to each subsequent Distribution Date the per
         annum rate calculated pursuant to clause (i) above with respect to
         the Class B Certificates will be LIBOR plus 2.35%.

(6)      The Class P Certificates will be issued without a Certificate
         Principal Amount and will not bear interest at a stated rate but
         shall entitle the Holder thereof to receive Prepayment Premiums paid
         with respect to the Mortgage Loans as provided in Section 5.02(f).
         The Class P Certificate shall be an interest in the Trust Fund but
         shall not be an interest in any REMIC created under this Agreement.

(7)      The Class X Certificate will have an initial principal balance of
         $753.88 but shall not accrue interest on that balance. In addition to
         the right to receive ultimately the initial principal balance of
         $753.88, which right represents a regular interest in the Upper Tier
         REMIC, the Class X Certificate also comprises a notional component,
         which is also a regular interest in the Upper Tier REMIC. The
         notional component has a notional principal balance that at all times
         will equal the aggregate of the principal balances of the Class D,
         Class LT-A1, Class LT-M1(1), Class LT-M2(1), Class LT-B(1), Class Q,
         Class LT-A2, Class LT-M1(2), Class LT-M2(2), and Class LT-B(2)
         Interests. For each Distribution Date (and the related Accrual
         Period) on and before the Distribution Date on which the Class
         Principal Amount of the Class A1 Certificates is reduced to zero, the
         notional component shall bear interest at a rate equal to the excess
         of the lesser of the Pool 1 Net Funds Cap or the Pool 2 Net Funds Cap
         over the product of (a) 2 and (b) the Adjusted Average Rate. For each
         Distribution Date after the Distribution Date on which the Class
         Principal Amount of the Class A1 Certificates has been reduced to
         zero, the notional component shall bear interest at a rate equal to
         the excess of the Average Rate over the product of (a) 2 and (b) the
         Adjusted Average Rate. For any Distribution Date, interest that
         accrues on the notional component of the Class X Certificate shall be
         deferred to the extent of any increase in the Overcollateralization
         Amount on such date. Such deferred interest shall not itself bear
         interest.

(8)      The Class R Certificate will be issued without a Certificate
         Principal Amount and will not bear interest at a stated rate. The
         Class R Certificate represents ownership of the residual interest in
         the Upper Tier REMIC, as well as ownership of the Class LT-R
         Interest.

(9)      The Class A1 Certificates will initially be issued as a single
         Certificate evidencing the entire Class Principal Amount thereof.

(10)     The Class P, Class X and Class R Certificates will each be issued as
         a single Certificate evidencing the entire Percentage Interest in
         such Class.

         As of the Cut-off Date, the Mortgage Loans had an aggregate Scheduled
Principal Balance of $2,065,694,753.88.

         LIBOR: With respect to the first Accrual Period, the Initial LIBOR
Rate. With respect to each subsequent Accrual Period, a per annum rate
determined on the LIBOR Determination Date in the following manner by the
Master Servicer on the basis of the "Interest Settlement Rate" set by the
British Bankers' Association (the "BBA") for one-month United States dollar
deposits, as such rates appear on the Telerate Page 3750, as of 11:00 a.m.
(London time) on such LIBOR Determination Date.

         (a) If on such a LIBOR Determination Date, the BBA's Interest
Settlement Rate does not appear on the Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m.
(London time), or if the Telerate Page 3750 is not available on such date, the
Master Servicer will obtain such rate from Reuters' "page LIBOR 01" or
Bloomberg's page "BBAM". If such rate is not published for such LIBOR
Determination Date, LIBOR for such date will be the most recently published
Interest Settlement Rate. In the event that the BBA no longer sets an Interest
Settlement Rate, the Master Servicer will designate an alternative index that
has performed, or that the Depositor expects to perform, in a manner
substantially similar to the BBA's Interest Settlement Rate. The Master
Servicer will select a particular index as the alternative index only if it
receives an Opinion of Counsel (a copy of which shall be furnished to the
Trustee and the Guarantor), which opinion shall be an expense reimbursed from
the Collection Account pursuant to Section 4.02(v), that the selection of such
index will not cause any of the REMICs to lose their classification as REMICs
for federal income tax purposes.

         (b) The establishment of LIBOR by the Master Servicer and the Master
Servicer's subsequent calculation of the Certificate Interest Rate applicable
to the LIBOR Certificates for the relevant Accrual Period, in the absence of
manifest error, will be final and binding.

         Intervening Assignment that has been lost, a written Opinion of
         Counsel acceptable to the Trustee and the Guarantor (in the case of
         any Pool 1 Mortgage Loan) that such original Intervening Assignment
         is not required to enforce the Trustee's interest in the Mortgage
         Loans;

                  (vii) with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the original

effect the transfer to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders,
of the Mortgage Notes and the Mortgages.

         (c) Assignments of Mortgage with respect to each Mortgage Loan shall
be recorded; provided, however, that such Assignments need not be recorded if,
on or prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor delivers, at its own expense,
an Opinion of Counsel (which must be from Independent counsel) acceptable to
the Trustee and the Guarantor, which states that recording in such states is
not required to protect the Trustee's interest in the related Mortgage Loans.
Subject to the preceding sentence, as soon as practicable after the Closing
Date (but in no event more than 3 months thereafter except to the extent
delays are caused by the applicable recording office), the Trustee, at the
expense of the Seller and with the cooperation of the applicable Servicer,

Trustee, the Guarantor and the Certificateholders.

Documentation for Trust Fund. (a) The Trustee, by execution and delivery
hereof, acknowledges receipt by the applicable Custodian on its behalf of the
Mortgage Files pertaining to the Mortgage Loans listed on the Mortgage Loan
Schedule. The applicable Custodian on behalf of the Trustee has reviewed each
Mortgage File to ascertain that all required documents set forth in Section

signatures by or on behalf of the respective parties thereto, and will execute
and deliver on the Closing Date to the Depositor, the Guarantor and the Master
Servicer an Initial Certification in the form annexed as Exhibit B-1 to each
Custodial Agreement to the effect that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the

certificates or other papers to determine that the same are valid, binding,
legally effective, properly endorsed, genuine, enforceable or appropriate for
the represented purpose or that they have actually been recorded or are in
recordable form or that they are other than what they purport to be on their
face. None of the Trustee or any applicable Custodian shall have any
responsibility for verifying the genuineness or the legal effectiveness of or
authority for any signatures of or on behalf of any party or endorser.

         (b) If in the course of the review described in paragraph (a) above
the applicable Custodian discovers any document or documents constituting a
part of a Mortgage File that is missing, does not appear regular on its face
(i.e., is mutilated, damaged, defaced, torn or otherwise physically altered)
or appears to be unrelated to the Mortgage Loans identified in the Mortgage
Loan Schedule (each, a "Material Defect"), the applicable Custodian on behalf
of the Trustee, discovering such Material Defect shall promptly identify the
Mortgage Loan to which such Material Defect relates in the certificate
delivered with the Interim Certificate in the form annexed as Exhibit B-2 to
each Custodial Agreement within 45 days of the Closing Date. Within 90 days of
its receipt of such notice, the applicable Transferor, or, if such Transferor
does not do so, the Seller shall be required to cure such Material Defect
(and, in such event, the Seller shall provide the Trustee with an Officer's
Certificate confirming that such cure has been effected). If the applicable
Transferor or the Seller, as applicable, does not so cure such Material
Defect, such Transferor, or, if such Transferor does not do so, the Seller,
shall, if a loss has been incurred with respect to such Mortgage Loan that
would, if such Mortgage Loan were not purchased from the Trust Fund,
constitute a Realized Loss, and such loss is attributable to the failure of
the Seller to cure such Material Defect, shall repurchase (in accordance with
Section 2.05) the related Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase
Price. A loss shall be deemed to be attributable to the failure of the Seller
to cure a Material Defect if, as determined by the Seller, upon mutual
agreement with the Trustee and the Guarantor acting in good faith, absent such
Material Defect, such loss would not have been incurred. Within the two year
period following the Closing Date, the Seller may, in lieu of repurchasing a
Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.02, substitute for such Mortgage Loan
a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan subject to the provisions of Section
2.05. The failure of the Trustee or the applicable Custodian to give the
notice contemplated herein within 45 days after the Closing Date shall not
affect or relieve the Seller of its obligation to repurchase any Mortgage Loan
pursuant to this Section 2.02 or any other Section of this Agreement requiring
the repurchase of Mortgage Loans from the Trust Fund.

         (c) Within 180 days following the Closing Date, the applicable
Custodian, shall deliver to the Depositor, the Guarantor and the Master
Servicer a Final Certification substantially in the form annexed as Exhibit
B-3 to each Custodial Agreement evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage
Files in its possession or control.

         (d) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to constitute an
assumption by the Trust Fund, the Trustee, any Custodian, the Guarantor or the
Certificateholders of any unsatisfied duty, claim or other liability on any
Mortgage Loan or to any Mortgagor.

         (e) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that the applicable
Custodian shall perform the applicable review of the Mortgage Loans and
deliver the applicable certifications as provided in its Custodial Agreement.

         Section 2.03. Representations and Warranties of the Depositor. (a)
The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee, for the benefit
of Certificateholders, and to the Master Servicer and the Guarantor, as of the
Closing Date or such other date as is specified, that:

                  (i) the Depositor is a corporation duly organized, validly
         existing and in good standing under the laws governing its creation
         and existence and has full corporate power and authority to own its
         property, to carry on its business as presently conducted, to enter
         into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, and to create
         the trust pursuant hereto;

                  (ii) the execution and delivery by the Depositor of this
         Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action
         on the part of the Depositor; neither the execution and delivery of
         this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions herein
         contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions hereof, will
         conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default
         under, any of the provisions of any law, governmental rule,
         regulation, judgment, decree or order binding on the Depositor or its
         properties or the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the
         Depositor;

                  (iii) the execution, delivery and performance by the
         Depositor of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
         contemplated hereby do not require the consent or approval of, the
         giving of notice to, the registration with, or the taking of any
         other action in respect of, any state, federal or other governmental
         authority or agency, except such as has been obtained, given,
         effected or taken prior to the date hereof;

                  (iv) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by
         the Depositor and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery
         by the Trustee and the Master Servicer, constitutes a valid and
         binding obligation of the Depositor enforceable against it in
         accordance with its terms except as such enforceability may be
         subject to (A) applicable bankruptcy and insolvency laws and other
         similar laws affecting the enforcement of the rights of creditors
         generally and (B) general principles of equity regardless of whether
         such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;

                  (v) there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or,
         to the knowledge of the Depositor, threatened or likely to be
         asserted against or affecting the Depositor, before or by any court,
         administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body (A) with
         respect to any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
         (B) with respect to any other matter which in the judgment of the
         Depositor will be determined adversely to the Depositor and will if
         determined adversely to the Depositor materially and adversely affect
         it or its business, assets, operations or condition, financial or
         otherwise, or adversely affect its ability to perform its obligations
         under this Agreement; and

                  (vi) immediately prior to the transfer and assignment of the
         Mortgage Loans to the Trustee, the Depositor was the sole owner of
         record and holder of each Mortgage Loan, and the Depositor had good
         and marketable title thereto, and had full right to transfer and sell
         each Mortgage Loan to the Trustee free and clear, subject only to (1)
         liens of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and
         payable and, if the related Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit,
         any lien for common charges permitted by statute, (2) covenants,
         conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other
         matters of public record as of the date of recording of such Mortgage
         acceptable to mortgage lending institutions in the area in which the
         related Mortgaged Property is located and specifically referred to in
         the lender's Title Insurance Policy or attorney's opinion of title
         and abstract of title delivered to the originator of such Mortgage
         Loan, and (3) such other matters to which like properties are
         commonly subject which do not, individually or in the aggregate,
         materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be
         provided by the Mortgage, of any encumbrance, equity, participation
         interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest, and had
         full right and authority, subject to no interest or participation of,
         or agreement with, any other party, to sell and assign each Mortgage
         Loan pursuant to this Agreement.

         (b) The representations and warranties of each Transferor with
respect to the Mortgage Loans in the applicable Transfer Agreement, which have
been assigned to the Trustee hereunder, were made as of the date of such
Transfer Agreement. To the extent that any fact, condition or event with
respect to a Mortgage Loan constitutes a breach of a representation or
warranty made under a Transfer Agreement or herein, the Trustee, the Guarantor
or a Certificateholder shall have the right to require that the Seller cure
such breach or effect such other remedy as is specified in subsection 1.04(e)
of the Mortgage Loan Sale and Assignment Agreement.

         Section 2.04. Discovery of Breach. It is understood and agreed that
the representations and warranties (i) set forth in Section 2.03, (ii) of the
Seller set forth in the Mortgage Loan Sale and Assignment Agreement and
assigned to the Trustee by the Depositor hereunder and (iii) of each
Transferor and of each Servicer assigned by the Seller to the Depositor
pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Sale and Assignment Agreement and assigned to
the Trustee by the Depositor hereunder, shall each survive delivery of the
Mortgage Files and the Assignment of Mortgage of each Mortgage Loan to the
Trustee and shall continue throughout the term of this Agreement. Upon
discovery by any of the Depositor, the Guarantor, the Master Servicer, or the
Trustee of a breach of any of such representations and warranties that
adversely and materially affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan, the
party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other
parties. Within 90 days of the discovery of a breach of any representation or
warranty (i) given to the Trustee and the Guarantor by the Depositor under
Section 2.03 or (ii) given by the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Sale and
Assignment Agreement or (iii) made by a Transferor to the Seller under a
Transfer Agreement, and assigned by the Seller to the Depositor under the
Mortgage Loan Sale and Assignment Agreement (and assigned by the Depositor to
the Trustee hereunder), the Depositor or the Seller shall (a) cure such breach
in all material respects, (b) repurchase such Mortgage Loan or any property
acquired in respect thereof from the Trustee at the Purchase Price or (c)
within the two year period following the Closing Date, substitute a Qualifying
Substitute Mortgage Loan for the affected Mortgage Loan, in each case in
accordance with Section 2.05. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, any
breach of the representations and warranties contained in Sections
1.04(c)(xl), (xli), (xlii) and (li) of the Mortgage Loan Sale and Assignment
Agreement shall be deemed to adversely and materially affect the value of the
related Mortgage Loan. In the event of discovery of a breach of any
representation and warranty of any Transferor which has been assigned to the
Trustee under this Agreement, the Trustee may either enforce its rights
against the Seller pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence or enforce
its rights under the related Transfer Agreement for the benefit of
Certificateholders; provided, however, if such rights are enforced directly
against the Seller such rights shall be subrogated to the rights of the
Trustee under the related Transfer Agreement.

         Section 2.05. Repurchase, Purchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans.
(a) With respect to any Mortgage Loan repurchased by the Depositor pursuant to
this Agreement, by the Seller pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Sale and
Assignment Agreement or by a Transferor pursuant to the applicable Transfer
Agreement, the principal portion of the Purchase Price of a Mortgage Loan will
be considered a Principal Prepayment and the Purchase Price shall be deposited
in the Collection Account or a Custodial Account, as applicable. The Trustee,
upon receipt of the full amount of the Purchase Price for a Deleted Mortgage
Loan, or upon receipt of the Mortgage File for a Qualifying Substitute
Mortgage Loan substituted for a Deleted Mortgage Loan (and any applicable
Substitution Amount), shall release or cause to be released and reassign to
the Depositor, the Seller or the applicable Transferor, as applicable, the
related Mortgage File for the Deleted Mortgage Loan and shall execute and
deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without
recourse, representation or warranty, as shall be necessary to vest in such
party or its designee or assignee title to any Deleted Mortgage Loan released
pursuant hereto, free and clear of all security interests, liens and other
encumbrances created by this Agreement, which instruments shall be prepared by
the applicable Custodian, and the Trustee shall have no further responsibility
with respect to the Mortgage File relating to such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The
Seller indemnifies and holds the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor, the
Guarantor and each Certificateholder harmless against any and all taxes,
claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and
related costs, judgements, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the
Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor, the Guarantor and any
Certificateholder may sustain in connection with any actions of the Seller
relating to a repurchase of a Mortgage Loan other than in compliance with the
terms of this Section 2.05 and the Mortgage Loan Sale and Assignment
Agreement, to the extent that any such action causes (i) any federal or state
tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund, including without limitation, any federal
tax imposed on "prohibited transactions" under Section 860F(a)(l) of the Code
or on "contributions after the startup date" under Section 860G(d)(l) of the
Code, or (ii) the REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any
Certificate is outstanding.

         (b) With respect to each Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan to be
delivered to the Trustee (or its custodian) pursuant to the terms of this
Article II in exchange for a Deleted Mortgage Loan: (i) the Depositor, the
applicable Transferor or the Seller, as applicable, must deliver to the
Trustee (or its custodian) the Mortgage File for the Qualifying Substitute
Mortgage Loan containing the documents set forth in Section 2.01(b) along with
a written certification certifying as to the delivery of such Mortgage File
and containing the granting language set forth in Section 2.01(a); and (ii)
the Depositor (or the Seller) will be deemed to have made, with respect to
such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, each of the representations and
warranties made by it with respect to the related Deleted Mortgage Loan. As
soon as practicable after the delivery of any Qualifying Substitute Mortgage
Loan hereunder, the Trustee, at the expense of the Depositor and with the
cooperation of the applicable Servicer, shall cause the Assignment of Mortgage
to be recorded by the applicable Servicer if required pursuant to the first
sentence of Section 2.01(c).

         (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the right
to substitute Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Article II shall be subject to
the additional limitations that no substitution of a Qualifying Substitute
Mortgage Loan for a Deleted Mortgage Loan shall be made unless the Trustee and
the Guarantor have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party
seeking to make the substitution) that, under current law, such substitution
will not (A) affect adversely the status of any REMIC established hereunder as
a REMIC, or of the related "regular interests" as "regular interests" in any
such REMIC, or (B) cause any federal or state tax to be imposed on the Trust
Fund, including without limitation, any federal tax imposed on "prohibited
transactions" under Section 860F(a)(l) of the Code or on "contributions after
the startup date" under Section 860G(d)(l) of the Code.

         Section 2.06. Grant Clause. It is intended that the conveyance of the
Depositor's right, title and interest in and to property constituting the
Trust Fund pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute, and shall be construed
as, a sale of such property and not a grant of a security interest to secure a
loan. However, if such conveyance is deemed to be in respect of a loan, it is
intended that: (1) the rights and obligations of the parties shall be
established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (2) the Depositor hereby
grants to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of the Certificates a
first priority security interest in all of the Depositor's right, title and
interest in, to and under, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, the Trust
Fund and all proceeds of any and all property constituting the Trust Fund to
secure payment of the Certificates; and (3) this Agreement shall constitute a
security agreement under applicable law. If such conveyance is deemed to be in
respect of a loan and the Trust created by this Agreement terminates prior to
the satisfaction of the claims of any Person holding any Certificate, the
security interest created hereby shall continue in full force and effect and
the Trustee shall be deemed to be the collateral agent for the benefit of such
Person, and all proceeds shall be distributed as herein provided.

                                  ARTICLE III

                               THE CERTIFICATES

         Section 3.01. The Certificates. (a) The Certificates shall be
issuable in registered form only and shall be securities governed by Article 8
of the New York Uniform Commercial Code. The Certificates will be evidenced by
one or more certificates, beneficial ownership of which will be held in the
dollar denominations in the Certificate Principal Amount or in the Percentage
Interests, specified herein. Each Class of Book-Entry Certificates will be
issued in the minimum denominations in the Certificate Principal Amount
specified in the Preliminary Statement hereto and in integral multiples of $1
in excess thereof. The Class A1 Certificate, Class P Certificate, Class X
Certificate and the Class R Certificate shall each be issued as a single
Certificate and maintained in definitive, fully registered form in a
denomination equal to 100% of the Class Principal Amount or Percentage
Interest of such Class. The Certificates may be issued in the form of
typewritten certificates.

         (b) The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile
signature on behalf of the Trustee by an authorized officer. Each Certificate
shall, on original issue, be authenticated by the Trustee upon the order of
the Depositor upon receipt by the Trustee of the Mortgage Files described in
Section 2.01. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this
Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such
Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided
for herein, executed by an authorized officer of the Trustee or the
Authenticating Agent, if any, by manual signature, and such certification upon
any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such
Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All
Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication. At any time and
from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
Depositor may deliver Certificates executed by the Depositor to the Trustee or
the Authenticating Agent for authentication and the Trustee or the
Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver such Certificates as in
this Agreement provided and not otherwise.

         Section 3.02. Registration. The Trustee is hereby appointed, and
hereby accepts its appointment as, Certificate Registrar in respect of the
Certificates and shall maintain books for the registration and for the
transfer of Certificates (the "Certificate Register"). The Trustee may appoint
a bank or trust company to act as Certificate Registrar. A registration book
shall be maintained for the Certificates collectively. The Certificate
Registrar may resign or be discharged or removed and a new successor may be
appointed in accordance with the procedures and requirements set forth in
Sections 6.06 and 6.07 hereof with respect to the resignation, discharge or
removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. The
Certificate Registrar may appoint, by a written instrument delivered to the
Holders and the Master Servicer, any bank or trust company to act as
co-registrar under such conditions as the Certificate Registrar may prescribe;
provided, however, that the Certificate Registrar shall not be relieved of any
of its duties or responsibilities hereunder by reason of such appointment.

         Section 3.03. Transfer and Exchange of Certificates. (a) A
Certificate (other than Book-Entry Certificates which shall be subject to
Section 3.09 hereof) may be transferred by the Holder thereof only upon
presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the
Certificate Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by an assignment duly
executed by such Holder or his duly authorized attorney in such form as shall
be satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar. Upon the transfer of any
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Trustee shall
execute, and the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and
deliver to the transferee, one or more new Certificates of the same Class and
evidencing, in the aggregate, the same aggregate Certificate Principal Amount
as the Certificate being transferred. No service charge shall be made to a
Certificateholder for any registration of transfer of Certificates, but the
Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax
or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration
of transfer of Certificates.

         (b) A Certificate may be exchanged by the Holder thereof for any
number of new Certificates of the same Class, in authorized denominations,
representing in the aggregate the same Certificate Principal Amount as the
Certificate surrendered, upon surrender of the Certificate to be exchanged at
the office of the Certificate Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer duly executed by such Holder or his duly
authorized attorney in such form as is satisfactory to the Certificate
Registrar. Certificates delivered upon any such exchange will evidence the
same obligations, and will be entitled to the same rights and privileges, as
the Certificates surrendered. No service charge shall be made to a
Certificateholder for any exchange of Certificates, but the Certificate
Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any exchange of
Certificates. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the
Trustee shall execute, and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall
authenticate, date and deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder
making the exchange is entitled to receive.

         (c) By acceptance of a Restricted Certificate, whether upon original
issuance or subsequent transfer, each Holder of such a Certificate
acknowledges the restrictions on the transfer of such Certificate set forth
thereon and agrees that it will transfer such a Certificate only as provided
herein.

         The following restrictions shall apply with respect to the transfer
and registration of transfer of a Restricted Certificate to a transferee that
takes delivery in the form of a Definitive Certificate:

         The Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer of a Restricted
Certificate if the requested transfer is (x) to the Depositor or the Placement
Agent, an affiliate (as defined in Rule 144(a)(1) under the 1933 Act) of the
Depositor or the Placement Agent or (y) being made to a "qualified
institutional buyer" (a "QIB") as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") by a transferor who has provided the
Trustee with a certificate in the form of Exhibit F hereto.

         (d) No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate in the form of a
Definitive Certificate shall be made to any Person unless the Trustee, the
Master Servicer and the Guarantor have received (A) a certificate
substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto from such transferee or (B) an
Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee, the Guarantor, the Master
Servicer and the Depositor to the effect that the purchase and holding of such
a Certificate will not constitute or result in the assets of the Trust Fund
being deemed to be "plan assets" subject to the prohibited transactions
provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the
Trustee, the Guarantor, the Master Servicer or the Depositor to any obligation
in addition to those undertaken in the Agreement; provided, however, that the
Trustee will not require such certificate or opinion in the event that, as a
result of a change of law or otherwise, counsel satisfactory to the Trustee,
the Master Servicer and the Guarantor has rendered an opinion to the effect
that the purchase and holding of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate by a Plan or
a Person that is purchasing or holding such a Certificate with the assets of a
Plan will not constitute or result in a prohibited transaction under ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code. The preparation and delivery of the certificate and
opinions referred to above shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund, the
Trustee, the Guarantor, the Master Servicer or the Depositor. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no opinion or certificate shall be required for the initial
issuance of the ERISA-Restricted Certificates.

         (e) As a condition of the registration of transfer or exchange of any
Certificate, the Certificate Registrar may require the certified taxpayer
identification number of the owner of the Certificate and the payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection
therewith; provided, however, that the Certificate Registrar shall have no
obligation to require such payment or to determine whether or not any such tax
or charge may be applicable. No service charge shall be made to the
Certificateholder for any registration, transfer or exchange of Certificate.

         (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) no
Residual Certificate may be owned, pledged or transferred, directly or
indirectly, by or to a Disqualified Organization or (ii) an individual,
corporation or partnership or other person unless such person is (A) not a
Non-U.S. Person or (B) is a Non-U.S. Person that holds a Residual Certificate
in connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States
and has furnished the transferor and the Trustee with an effective Internal
Revenue Service Form 4224 or successor form at the time and in the manner
required by the Code (any such person who is not covered by clause (A) or (B)
above is referred to herein as a "Non-permitted Foreign Holder").

         Prior to and as a condition of the registration of any transfer, sale
or other disposition of a Residual Certificate, the proposed transferee shall
deliver to the Trustee an affidavit in substantially the form attached hereto
as Exhibit D-1 representing and warranting, among other things, that such
transferee is (i) neither a Disqualified Organization an agent or nominee
acting on behalf of a Disqualified Organization, nor a Non-permitted Foreign
Holder (any such transferee, a "Permitted Transferee"), and (ii) a QIB or
either the Depositor or an affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act)
thereof and the proposed transferor shall deliver to the Trustee an affidavit
in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-2. In addition, the
Trustee may (but shall have no obligation to) require, prior to and as a
condition of any such transfer, the delivery by the proposed transferee of an
Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Depositor, the Guarantor and the Trustee
satisfactory in form and substance to the Depositor and the Guarantor, that
such proposed transferee or, if the proposed transferee is an agent or
nominee, the proposed beneficial owner, is not a Disqualified Organization,
agent or nominee thereof, or a Non-permitted Foreign Holder. Notwithstanding
the registration in the Certificate Register of any transfer, sale, or other
disposition of a Residual Certificate to a Disqualified Organization, an agent
or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder, such registration shall
be deemed to be of no legal force or effect whatsoever and such Disqualified
Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder shall
not be deemed to be a Certificateholder for any purpose hereunder, including,
but not limited to, the receipt of distributions on such Residual Certificate.
Neither the Trustee nor the Guarantor shall be under any liability to any
person for any registration or transfer of a Residual Certificate to a
Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof or Non-permitted Foreign
Holder or for the maturity of any payments due on such Residual Certificate to
the Holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such Holder
under the provisions of the Agreement, so long as the transfer was effected in
accordance with this Section 3.03(f), unless the Trustee shall have actual
knowledge at the time of such transfer or the time of such payment or other
action that the transferee is a Disqualified Organization, or an agent or
nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder. The Trustee shall be
entitled to recover from any Holder of a Residual Certificate that was a
Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign
Holder at the time it became a Holder or any subsequent time it became a
Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign
Holder, all payments made on such Residual Certificate at and after either
such times (and all costs and expenses, including but not limited to
attorneys' fees, incurred in connection therewith). Any payment (not including
any such costs and expenses) so recovered by the Trustee shall be paid and
delivered to the last preceding Holder of such Residual Certificate.

         If any purported transferee shall become a registered Holder of a
Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 3.03(f),
then upon receipt of written notice to the Trustee that the registration of
transfer of such Residual Certificate was not in fact permitted by this
Section 3.03(f), the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored to
all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of such 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 this Section 3.03(f), for making any payment due
on such Certificate to the registered Holder thereof or for taking any other
action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so
long as the transfer was registered upon receipt of the affidavit described in
the preceding paragraph of this Section 3.03(f).

         (g) Each Holder of a Restricted Certificate, ERISA-Restricted
Certificate or Residual Certificate, or an interest therein, by such Holder's
acceptance thereof, shall be deemed for all purposes to have consented to the
provisions of this section.

         Section 3.04. Cancellation of Certificates. Any Certificate
surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled and
retained in accordance with normal retention policies with respect to
cancelled certificates maintained by the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar.

         Section 3.05. Replacement of Certificates. If (i) any Certificate is
mutilated and is surrendered to the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent or
(ii) the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent receives evidence to its
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and there
is delivered to the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent such security or
indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in
the absence of notice to the Depositor and any Authenticating Agent that such
destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the Trustee shall execute and the Trustee or any Authenticating
Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like
tenor and Certificate Principal Amount. Upon the issuance of any new
Certificate under this Section 3.05, the Trustee and Authenticating Agent 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 or the Authenticating Agent)
connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this
Section 3.05 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership
in the applicable Trust Fund, as if originally issued, whether or not the
lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

         Section 3.06. Persons Deemed Owners. Subject to the provisions of
Section 3.09 with respect to Book-Entry Certificates, the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Guarantor, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and any
agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is
registered upon the books of the Certificate Registrar as the owner of such
Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Sections
5.01 and 5.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the
Depositor, the Guarantor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

         Section 3.07. Temporary Certificates. (a) Pending the preparation of
definitive Certificates, upon the order of the Depositor, the Trustee shall
execute and shall authenticate and deliver temporary Certificates that are
printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any
authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive
Certificates in lieu of which they are issued and with such variations as the
authorized officers executing such Certificates may determine, as evidenced by
their execution of such Certificates.

         (b) If temporary Certificates are issued, the Depositor will cause
definitive Certificates to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the
preparation of definitive Certificates, the temporary Certificates shall be
exchangeable for definitive Certificates upon surrender of the temporary
Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee without charge to the
Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary
Certificates, the Trustee shall execute and authenticate and deliver in
exchange therefor a like aggregate Certificate Principal Amount of definitive
Certificates of the same Class in the authorized denominations. Until so
exchanged, the temporary Certificates shall in all respects be entitled to the
same benefits under this Agreement as definitive Certificates of the same
Class.

         Section 3.08. Appointment of Paying Agent. The Trustee may appoint a
Paying Agent (which may be the Trustee) for the purpose of making
distributions to Certificateholders hereunder. The Trustee shall cause such
Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such
Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee that such Paying Agent will hold all
sums held by it for the payment to Certificateholders in an Eligible Account
in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such
sums shall be paid to the Certificateholders. All funds remitted by the
Trustee to any such Paying Agent for the purpose of making distributions shall
be paid to Certificateholders on each Distribution Date and any amounts not so
paid shall be returned on such Distribution Date to the Trustee. If the Paying
Agent is not the Trustee, the Trustee shall cause to be remitted to the Paying
Agent on or before the Business Day prior to each Distribution Date, by wire
transfer in immediately available funds, the funds to be distributed on such
Distribution Date. Any Paying Agent shall be either a bank or trust company or
otherwise authorized under law to exercise corporate trust powers.

         Section 3.09. Book-Entry Certificates. (a) Each Class of Book-Entry
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 Trust Company, the initial Clearing Agency, by, or
on behalf of, the Depositor. The Book-Entry Certificates shall initially be
registered on the Certificate Register in the name of the nominee of the
Clearing Agency, and no Certificate Owner will receive a definitive
certificate representing such Certificate Owner's interest in the Book-Entry
Certificates, except as provided in Section 3.09(c). Unless Definitive
Certificates have been issued to Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates
pursuant to Section 3.09(c):

                  (i) the provisions of this Section 3.09(a) shall be in
          full force and effect;

                  (ii) the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Paying Agent,
         the Registrar and the Trustee may deal with the Clearing Agency for
         all purposes (including the making of distributions on the Book-Entry
         Certificates) as the authorized representatives of the Certificate
         Owners and the Clearing Agency shall be responsible for crediting the
         amount of such distributions to the accounts of such Persons entitled
         thereto, in accordance with the Clearing Agency's normal procedures;

                  (iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 3.09
         conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions
         of this Section 3.09 shall control; and

                  (iv) the rights of Certificate Owners shall be exercised
         only through the Clearing Agency and the Clearing Agency Participants
         and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements
         between such Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the
         Clearing Agency Participants. Unless and until Definitive
         Certificates are issued pursuant to Section 3.09(c), the initial
         Clearing Agency will make book-entry transfers among the Clearing
         Agency Participants and receive and transmit distributions of
         principal of and interest on the Book-Entry Certificates to such
         Clearing Agency Participants.

         (b) Whenever notice or other communication to the Certificateholders
is required under this Agreement, unless and until Definitive Certificates
shall have been issued to Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 3.09(c), the
Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be
given to Holders of the Book-Entry Certificates to the Clearing Agency.

         (c) If (i) (A) the Depositor advises the Trustee in writing that the
Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its
responsibilities with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates, and (B) the
Trustee or the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the
Depositor, at its option, advises the Trustee in writing that it elects to
terminate the book-entry system through the Clearing Agency or (iii) after the
occurrence of an Event of Default, Certificate Owners representing beneficial
interests aggregating not less than 50% of the Class Principal Amount of a
Class of Book-Entry Certificates identified as such to the Trustee by an
Officer's Certificate from the Clearing Agency advise the Trustee and the
Clearing Agency through the Clearing Agency Participants in writing that the
continuation of a book-entry system through the Clearing Agency is no longer
in the best interests of the Certificate Owners of a Class of Book-Entry
Certificates, the Trustee shall notify or cause the Certificate Registrar to
notify the Clearing Agency to effect notification to all Certificate Owners,
through the Clearing Agency, of the occurrence of any such event and of the
availability of Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the
same. Upon surrender to the Trustee of the Book-Entry Certificates by the
Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions from the Clearing
Agency for registration, the Trustee shall issue the Definitive Certificates.
Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in
delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be
protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive
Certificates all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be
performed by the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to be imposed upon and
performed by the Trustee, to the extent applicable, with respect to such
Definitive Certificates and the Trustee shall recognize the holders of the
Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.

                                  ARTICLE IV

                       ADMINISTRATION OF THE TRUST FUND

         Section 4.01. Collection Account. (a) On the Closing Date, the Master
Servicer shall open and shall thereafter maintain a segregated account held in
trust (the "Collection Account"), entitled "Collection Account, Norwest Bank
Minnesota, National Association, as Master Servicer, in trust for the benefit
of the Holders of Amortizing Residential Collateral Trust Mortgage
Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2000-BC2". The Collection Account shall
relate solely to the Certificates issued by the Trust Fund hereunder, and
funds in such Collection Account shall not be commingled with any other
monies.

         (b) The Collection Account shall be an Eligible Account. If an
existing Collection Account ceases to be an Eligible Account, the Master
Servicer shall establish a new Collection Account that is an Eligible Account
within 15 days and transfer all funds on deposit in such existing Collection
Account into such new Collection Account.

         (c) The Master Servicer will give to the Trustee and the Guarantor
prior written notice of the name and address of the depository institution at
which the Collection Account is maintained and the account number of such
Collection Account. The Master Servicer shall take such actions as are
necessary to cause the depository institution holding the Collection Account
to hold such account in the name of the Master Servicer under this Agreement.
On each Deposit Date, the entire amount on deposit in the Collection Account
(subject to permitted withdrawals set forth in Section 4.02), other than
amounts not included in the Total Distribution Amount for such Distribution
Date shall be remitted to the Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Account
by wire transfer in immediately available funds. The Master Servicer, at its
option, may choose to make daily remittances from the Collection Account to
the Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Account.

         (d) The Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited into
the Collection Account, no later than the Business Day following the Closing
Date, any amounts received with respect to the Mortgage Loans representing
Scheduled Payments on the Mortgage Loan due after the Cut-off Date and
unscheduled payments due on or after the Cut-off Date and received by the
Master Servicer on or before the Closing Date. Thereafter, the Master Servicer
shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the Collection Account on the
earlier of the applicable Remittance Date and one Business Day following
receipt thereof, the following amounts received or payments made by it (other
than in respect of principal of and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or
before May 1, 2000):

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

                  (ii) all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage
         Loans (other than payments due prior to the Cut-off Date), including
         Prepayment Premiums, net of the Servicing Fee, Master Servicing Fee
         and the MGIC Insurance Premiums, if any, with respect to each such
         Mortgage Loan, but only to the extent of the amount permitted to be
         withdrawn or withheld from the Collection Account in accordance with
         Sections 5.05 and 9.21;

                  (iii) any unscheduled payment or other recovery with respect
         to a Mortgage Loan not otherwise specified in this paragraph (d),
         including all Liquidation Proceeds with respect to the Mortgage Loans
         and REO Property, and all amounts received in connection with the
         operation of any REO Property, net of (x) any unpaid Servicing Fees
         and Master Servicing Fees with respect to such Mortgage Loans (but
         only to the extent of the amount permitted to be withdrawn or
         withheld from the Collection Account in accordance with Sections 5.05
         and 9.21) and (y) any amounts reimbursable to a Servicer with respect
         to such Mortgage Loan under the applicable Servicing Agreement and
         retained by such Servicer;

                  (iv)     all Insurance Proceeds;

                  (v) all Advances made by the Master Servicer or any
          Servicer pursuant to Section 5.05 or applicable Servicing Agreement;
          and

                  (vi) the Purchase Price of any Mortgage Loan repurchased by
         the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer or any other Person
         and any Substitution Amount related to any Qualifying Substitute
         Mortgage Loan.

         (e) Funds in the Collection Account may be invested in Eligible
Investments selected by and at the written direction of the Depositor and
acceptable to the Guarantor (as indicated on such written direction), which
shall mature not later than one Business Day prior to the Deposit Date. All
such Eligible Investments shall be made in the name of the Trustee (in its
capacity as such) or its nominee. All income and gain realized from any such
investment shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer and shall be
subject to its withdrawal or order from time to time, and shall not be part of
the Trust Fund. The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such
investments shall be deposited in such Collection Account by the Master
Servicer out of its own funds, without any right of reimbursement therefor,
immediately as realized. The foregoing requirements for deposit in the
Collection Account are exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments of interest on funds in the
Collection Account and payments in the nature of late payment charges,
assumption fees and other incidental fees and charges relating to the Mortgage
Loans (other than Prepayment Premiums) need not be deposited by the Master
Servicer in the Collection Account and may be retained by the Master Servicer
or the applicable Servicer as additional servicing compensation. If the Master
Servicer deposits in the Collection Account any amount not required to be
deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from such
Collection Account. In the event the Depositor does not provide written
direction to the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section, all funds on
deposit in the Collection Account shall be invested in a money market fund as
described in paragraph (viii) of the definition of "Eligible Investment" set
forth in Article I.

         Section 4.02. Application of Funds in the Collection Account. The
Master Servicer may, from time to time, make, or cause to be made, withdrawals
from the Collection Account for the following purposes:

                  (i) to reimburse itself or any Servicer for Advances or
         Servicing Advances made by it or by such Servicer pursuant to Section
         5.05 or the applicable Servicing Agreement; such right to
         reimbursement pursuant to this subclause (i) is limited to amounts
         received on or in respect of a particular Mortgage Loan (including,
         for this purpose, Liquidation Proceeds and amounts representing
         Insurance Proceeds with respect to the property subject to the
         related Mortgage) which represent late recoveries (net of the
         Servicing Fee and the Master Servicing Fee) of payments of principal
         or interest respecting which any such Advance was made, it being
         understood, in the case of any such reimbursement, that the Master
         Servicer's or Servicer's right thereto shall be prior to the rights
         of the Certificateholders;

                  (ii) to reimburse itself or any Servicer, following a final
         liquidation of a Mortgage Loan (except as otherwise provided in the
         related Servicing Agreement) for any previously unreimbursed Advances
         made by it or by such Servicer (A) that it determines in good faith
         will not be recoverable from amounts representing late recoveries of
         payments of principal or interest respecting the particular Mortgage
         Loan as to which such Advance was made or from Liquidation Proceeds
         or Insurance Proceeds with respect to such Mortgage Loan (B) to the
         extent that such unreimbursed Advances exceed the related Liquidation
         Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds, it being understood, in the case of
         each such reimbursement, that such Master Servicer's or Servicer's
         right thereto shall be prior to the rights of the Certificateholders;

                  (iii) to reimburse itself or any Servicer from Liquidation
         Proceeds for Liquidation Expenses and for amounts expended by it
         pursuant to Section 9.22(c) or the applicable Servicing Agreement in
         good faith in connection with the restoration of damaged property
         and, to the extent that Liquidation Proceeds after such reimbursement
         exceed the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan,
         together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the applicable
         Mortgage Rate less the Servicing Fee and the Master Servicing Fee for
         such Mortgage Loan to the Due Date next succeeding the date of its
         receipt of such Liquidation Proceeds, to pay to itself out of such
         excess the amount of any unpaid assumption fees, late payment charges
         or other Mortgagor charges on the related Mortgage Loan and to retain
         any excess remaining thereafter as additional servicing compensation,
         it being understood, in the case of any such reimbursement or
         payment, that such Master Servicer's or Servicer's right thereto
         shall be prior to the rights of the Certificateholders;

                  (iv) in the event it has elected not to pay itself the
         Master Servicing Fee out of any Mortgagor payment on account of
         interest or other recovery with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan
         prior to the deposit of such Mortgagor payment or recovery in the
         Collection Account, to pay to itself the Master Servicing Fee for
         each Distribution Date and any unpaid Master Servicing Fees for prior
         Distribution Dates, as reduced pursuant to Section 5.06, from any
         Mortgagor payment as to interest or such other recovery with respect
         to that Mortgage Loan, as is permitted by this Agreement;

                  (v) to reimburse itself or any Servicer for expenses
         incurred by and recoverable by or reimbursable to it or any Servicer
         pursuant to Sections 9.04, 9.05(b), 9.07(a), 9.30 or 11.14, or to
         reimburse itself for any expenses reimbursable to it pursuant to
         Section 10.01(c); provided, however, that any amounts in excess of
         the annual cap described in clause (b) of the definition of "Interest
         Remittance Amount" in any Anniversary Year shall be included in the
         amount remitted by the Master Servicer to the Trustee pursuant to
         clause (viii) below and the Master Servicer's reimbursement for such
         excess amounts shall be made pursuant to Section 5.02(b) and 5.02(c)
         hereof;

                  (vi) to pay to the Depositor, the Seller, any Transferor or
         the Class X Certificateholder, as applicable, with respect to each
         Mortgage Loan or REO Property acquired in respect thereof that has
         been purchased pursuant to this Agreement, all amounts received
         thereon and not distributed on the date on which the related
         repurchase was effected, and to pay to the applicable Person any
         Advances and Servicing Advances to the extent specified in the
         definition of Purchase Price;

                  (vii) to pay to itself income earned on the investment of
          funds deposited in the Collection Account;

                  (viii) to make payments to the Trustee for deposit into
          the Certificate Account in the amounts and in the manner provided
          for in Section 4.04;

                  (ix) to make payment to itself and others pursuant to any
          provision of this Agreement;

                  (x) to withdraw funds deposited in error in the Collection
          Account;

                  (xi) to clear and terminate the Collection Account
          pursuant to Section 7.02;

                  (xii) to reimburse a successor Master Servicer (solely in
         its capacity as successor Master Servicer), for any fee or advance
         occasioned by a termination of the Master Servicer, and the
         assumption of such duties by the Trustee or a successor Master
         Servicer appointed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.14, in each
         case to the extent not reimbursed by the terminated Master Servicer,
         it being understood, in the case of any such reimbursement or
         payment, that the right of the Master Servicer or the Trustee thereto
         shall be prior to the rights of the Certificateholders; and

                  (xiii) to reimburse any Servicer for such amounts as are due
         thereto under the applicable Servicing Agreement and have not been
         retained by or paid to such Servicer, to the extent provided in such
         Servicing Agreement.

         In connection with withdrawals pursuant to subclauses (i), (iii),
(iv) and (vi) above, the Master Servicer's, any Servicer's or such other
Person's entitlement thereto is limited to collections or other recoveries on
the related Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer shall therefore keep and
maintain a separate accounting for each Mortgage Loan it master services for
the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Collection Account it
maintains pursuant to such subclause (i), (iii), (iv) and (vi).

         Section 4.03. Reports to Trustee, Guarantor and Certificateholders.
(a) On the fifth Business Day prior to each Distribution Date, (each a "Data
Remittance Date") by noon New York City time, the Master Servicer shall
furnish two reports (the "Loan Data Remittance Report" and the "Bond Data
Remittance Report," respectively) in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit K
and Exhibit L, respectively, to the Trustee and the Guarantor by electronic
medium as agreed to by the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Guarantor.

         (b) Subject to paragraph (c) below, if any month the Master Servicer
fails to provide the Guarantor either the Loan Data Remittance Report or the
Bond Data Remittance Report on or prior to the Data Remittance Date, the
Master Servicer shall pay to the Guarantor the following amounts: (i) upon the
first such failure, $500; (ii) upon the second such failure, $750; and (iii)
upon the third such failure, $1,000; provided, however, that the Master
Servicer shall not be required to make any such payment upon the first such
failure during each successive two year period following the Closing Date. The
fourth consecutive such failure to provide either a Loan Data Remittance
Report or a Bond Remittance Data Report to the Guarantor pursuant to Section
4.03(a) shall permit the Guarantor to remove the Master Servicer for cause.

         (c) The Master Servicer shall have no responsibility or liability
(including removal as Master Servicer) under paragraph (b) of this Section
4.03 if the Master Servicer's failure to timely deliver any Loan Data
Remittance Report or Bond Data Remittance Report is due to the failure of any
Servicer to furnish the Master Servicer on a timely basis with the relevant
data in accordance with the related Servicing Agreement.

         (d) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall provide or make
available by electronic means to each Certificateholder a report setting forth
the following information, which information the Master Servicer will
determine (on the basis of information obtained from the Servicers) and
provide or make available to the Trustee and the Guarantor pursuant to

         (e) Upon the reasonable advance written request of the Guarantor or
any Certificateholder that is a savings and loan, bank or insurance company,
which request, if received by the Trustee, will be promptly forwarded to the
Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall provide, or cause to be provided,
(or, to the extent that such information or documentation is not required to
be provided by a Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement, shall use
reasonable efforts to obtain such information and documentation from such
Servicer, and provide) to such Certificateholder such reports and access to
information and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans as such
Certificateholder may reasonably deem necessary to comply with applicable
regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision or its successor or other
regulatory authorities with respect to investment in the Certificates;
provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed
by such Certificateholder or the Guarantor, as applicable, for the Master
Servicer's actual expenses incurred in providing such reports and access.

         (f) Within 90 days, or such shorter period as may be required by
statute or regulation, after the end of each calendar year, the Trustee shall
send to each Person who at any time during the calendar year was a
Certificateholder of record, in accordance with applicable regulations, a
report summarizing the items provided to Certificateholders pursuant to
Section 4.03(a) on an annual basis as may be required to enable such Holders
to prepare their federal income tax returns. Such information shall include
the amount of original issue discount accrued on each Class of Certificates

shall provide the Trustee with such information as is necessary for the
Trustee to prepare such reports.

         (g) The Master Servicer shall prepare and file with the Internal
Revenue Service ("IRS"), on behalf of the Trust Fund, an application for an

Taxpayer Identification Number Assigned, shall upon request promptly forward a
copy of such notice to the Trustee, the Depositor and the Guarantor. The
Trustee shall furnish such other information as the Guarantor may reasonably
request in such format as reasonably requested by the Guarantor and any other
information that is required by the Code and regulations thereunder to be made
available to Certificateholders.

         (h) By no later than July 15, 2000 (or such other date that is
mutually agreeable to the Guarantor and the Master Servicer), the Master
Servicer is required to (i) confirm, to the extent such data is available in
the Information Circular, that the cash flows, weighted average lives, yields
and credit enhancement default analysis for the Class A1 Certificates as
presented in the Information Circular are correct therein based on the
assumptions and principal and interest methodology described in the
Information Circular and are consistent with the model developed by the Master
Servicer for the calculations that the Master Servicer is required to make
hereunder and (ii) notify the Guarantor that the information referred to in
clause (i) above is consistent with the model developed by the Master
Servicer.

         Section 4.04. Certificate Account. (a) The Trustee shall establish
and maintain in its name, as trustee, a special segregated deposit trust
account (the "Certificate Account") entitled "Certificate Account, First Union
National Bank, as Trustee, in trust for the benefit of the Holders of
Amortizing Residential Collateral Trust Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates,
Series 2000-BC2" until disbursed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The
Certificate Account shall be an Eligible Account. If the existing Certificate
Account ceases to be an Eligible Account, the Trustee shall establish a new
Certificate Account that is an Eligible Account within 15 Business Days and
transfer all funds on deposit in such existing Certificate Account into such
new Certificate Account. The Certificate Account shall relate solely to the
Certificates issued hereunder and funds in the Certificate Account shall be
held separate and apart from and shall not be commingled with any other monies
including, without limitation, other monies of the Trustee held under this
Agreement.

         (b) The Trustee shall cause to be deposited into the Certificate
Account on the day on which, or, if such day is not a Business Day, the
Business Day immediately following the day on which, any monies are remitted
by the Master Servicer to the Trustee, all such amounts. The Trustee shall
make withdrawals from the Certificate Account only for the following purposes:

                  (i) to withdraw amounts deposited in the Certificate
          Account in error;

                  (ii) to make payments of the Master Servicing Fee (to the
         extent not already withheld or withdrawn from the Collection Account
         by the Master Servicer) to the Master Servicer;

                  (iii) to make distributions to the Certificateholders and
          deposits in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund pursuant to Article V; and

                  (iv) to clear and terminate the Certificate Account
          pursuant to Section 7.02.

         (c) The Trustee may invest, or cause to be invested, funds held in
the Certificate Account at the direction of the Depositor (acceptable to the
Guarantor), which funds, if invested, shall be invested in Eligible
Investments (which may be obligations of the Trustee). All such investments
must be payable on demand or mature no later than the next Distribution Date,
and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to their maturity. All such
Eligible Investments will be made in the name of the Trustee (in its capacity
as such) or its nominee. All income and gain realized from any such investment
shall be compensation to the Trustee and shall be subject to its withdrawal on
any Distribution Date. The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any
such investments shall be paid by the Trustee for deposit in the Certificate
Account out of its own funds, without any right of reimbursement therefor,
immediately as realized. In the event that the Depositor does not provide
written direction to the Trustee pursuant to this Section, all funds on
deposit in the Certificate Account shall be invested in a money market or
common trust fund as described in paragraph (ix) of the definition of
"Eligible Investment" set forth in Article I.

                  for such Distribution Date over (b) the amount distributed

                  pursuant to clause (1) above, and (y) the M1 Principal

                           (4) to the Class B Certificates, an amount equal to
                  the lesser of (x) the excess of (a) the aggregate Principal
                  Distribution Amounts for each of Pool 1 and Pool 2 for such
                  Distribution Date over (b) the amount distributed to the
                  Class A1, Class A2, Class M1 and Class M2 Certificates on
                  such date pursuant to clauses (1) through (3) above, and (y)
                  the B Principal Distribution Amount for such date, until the
                  Class Principal Amount of such Class has been reduced to
                  zero; and

                           (5) for application as part of Monthly Excess
                  Cashflow for such Distribution Date, as provided in
                  subsection (e) of this Section, any Principal Distribution
                  Amount remaining after application pursuant to clauses (1)
                  through (4) above.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, on any Distribution Date on which the
         Class Principal Amount of each Class of Certificates having a higher
         priority of distribution has been reduced to zero, any remaining
         Principal Distribution Amount will be distributed to the remaining
         Certificates in the order of priority set forth above until the Class
         Principal Amount of each such Class has been reduced to zero.

         (e) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute the
Monthly Excess Cashflow for such date in the following order of priority:

         Distribution Date in November 2000, but before the Stepdown Date or
         (b) after the Stepdown Date but for which a Trigger Event has
         occurred, then until the aggregate Certificate Principal Amount
         equals the Aggregate Loan Balance for such Distribution Date minus
         the Targeted Overcollateralization Amount such Distribution Date,

                           (1) concurrently, in proportion to their respective
                  Class Principal Amounts after giving effect to principal
                  distributions on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section
                  5.02(d)(i), to the Class A1 Certificates and to the Class A2
                  Certificates, until the respective Class Principal Amount of
                  each such Class has been reduced to zero;

                           (2) to the Class M1 Certificates, until the Class
                  Principal Amount of such Class has been reduced to zero;

                           (3) to the Class M2 Certificates, until the Class

                           (4) to the Class B Certificates, until the Class
                  Principal Amount of such Class has been reduced to zero;

                  (ii) for each Distribution Date occurring on or after the
         Stepdown Date and for which no Trigger Event has occurred,

                           (A) concurrently, in proportion to their respective
                  Class Principal Amounts after giving effect to distributions
                  on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 5.02(d)(ii),
                  to the Class A1 Certificates and the Class A2 Certificates
                  until the aggregate Class Principal Amount of such Senior
                  Certificates equals the Senior Target Amount;

                           (B) to the Class M1 Certificates, until the Class
                  Principal Amount for such Class equals the M1 Target Amount;

                           (C) to the Class M2 Certificates, until the Class
                  Principal Amount for such Class equals the M2 Target Amount;
                  and

                           (D) to the Class B Certificates, until the Class
                  Principal Amount for such Class equals the B Target Amount;

                  (iii) to the Basis Risk Reserve Fund, an amount equal to the
         Basis Risk Payment for such Distribution Date, and then from the
         Basis Risk Reserve Fund,

                           (A) concurrently, in proportion to their respective
                  Class Principal Amounts after giving effect to principal
                  distributions on such Distribution Date pursuant to Sections
                  5.02(d)(i) or 5.02(d)(ii), to the Class A1 and Class A2
                  Certificates, any applicable Basis Risk Shortfall and Unpaid
                  Basis Risk Shortfall for each such Class and such
                  Distribution Date;

                           (B) to the Class M1 Certificates, any applicable
                  Basis Risk Shortfall and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfall for
                  such Distribution Date;

                           (C) to the Class M2 Certificates, any applicable
                  Basis Risk Shortfall and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfall for
                  such Distribution Date; and

                           (D) to the Class B Certificates, any applicable
                  Basis Risk Shortfall and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfall for
                  such Distribution Date;

                  (iv) to the Class M1 Certificates, any Carryforward Interest
         for such Class and such Distribution Date;

                  (v) to the Class M1 Certificates, any Deferred Amount for
         such Class and such Distribution Date;

                  (x) subject to Section 9.34(b), to the Class X Certificate,
         the Class X Distributable Amount for such Distribution Date, together
         with any amounts withdrawn from the Basis Risk Reserve Fund for
         distribution to such Class X Certificate pursuant to Section 5.07(c)
         and (d) on such Distribution Date; and

                  (xi) to the Class R Certificate, any amount remaining on
         such date after application pursuant to clauses (i) through (x)
         above.

         (f) On each Distribution Date, an amount equal to the aggregate of
all Prepayment Premiums collected during the preceding Prepayment Period shall
be distributed to the Class P Certificate.

         (g) The failure of the Trustee to make distributions to the Class A1
Certificateholders in accordance with Sections 5.02(b) and 5.02(d) due to the
negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee will result in the Trustee
being obligated to pay to the Guarantor an amount equal to the related
Guarantor Reimbursement Amount as a result of the Trustee's failure to make
such distribution, plus a $100 fee.

         Section 5.03. The Guarantee. On each Distribution Date following
receipt of a statement (as set forth in Section 4.03(a)) that indicates a
Deficiency Amount for such Distribution Date, the Guarantor shall distribute a
Guarantor Payment in an aggregate amount equal to the Deficiency Amount for
such Distribution Date directly to the Class A1 Certificateholders, without
first depositing such amount in the Certificate Account, as follows: (i) the
portion of any such Deficiency Amount related to clause (i) of the definition
of Deficiency Amount shall be distributed to the Class A1 Certificateholders
based on the Guaranteed Interest Distribution Amount payable on such
Certificates with respect to such Distribution Date; and (ii) the portion of
any such Deficiency Amount related to clause (ii) of the definition of
Deficiency Amount shall be distributed as provided in Section 5.02(d)(i)(A) or
5.02(d)(ii)(1), as applicable.

         Section 5.04. Allocation of Losses. On each Distribution Date, the
Class Principal Amounts of the Class M1, Class M2 and Class B Certificates
will be reduced by the amount of any Applied Loss Amount for such date, in the
following order of priority:

                  (i) to the Class B Certificates, until the Class Principal
         Amount thereof has been reduced to zero;

                  (ii) to the Class M2 Certificates, until the Class Principal
         Amount thereof has been reduced to zero; and

                  (iii) to the Class M1 Certificates, until the Class
         Principal Amount thereof has been reduced to zero.

The Holders of the Subordinate Certificates that are or may be affected by a
Realized Loss on a Liquidated Mortgage Loan shall be deemed to have
repurchased the ownership interest in such Liquidated Mortgage Loan held by
Holders of the Senior Certificates. After such repurchase, the Master
Servicer, if requested in writing by such Holders of Subordinate Certificates,
will direct the related Servicer, provided such Servicer is offered suitable
indemnification and reimbursement for expenses from such Holders of
Subordinate Certificates, to seek a deficiency judgment if permitted by law
against the Mortgagor under such Liquidated Mortgage Loan on behalf of the
Holders of the Subordinate Certificates to the extent of any Realized Loss.

         Section 5.05. Advances by Master Servicer, Servicers and Trustee. (a)
Subject to Section 9.07, Advances shall be made in respect of each Deposit
Date as provided herein. If, on any Determination Date, the Master Servicer or
Servicers determine that any Scheduled Payments due during the related
Collection Period (other than Balloon Payments) have not been received, the
Master Servicer shall, or shall cause the applicable Servicer to, advance such
amount to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement. If the
Master Servicer determines that an Advance is required, it shall on the
Deposit Date immediately following such Determination Date either (i) remit to
the Trustee from its own funds (or funds advanced by the applicable Servicer)
for deposit in the Certificate Account immediately available funds in an
amount equal to such Advance, (ii) cause to be made an appropriate entry in
the records of the Collection Account that funds in such account being held
for future distribution or withdrawal have been, as permitted by this Section
5.05, used by the Master Servicer to make such Advance, and remit such
immediately available funds to the Trustee for deposit in the Certificate
Account or (iii) make Advances in the form of any combination of clauses (i)
and (ii) aggregating the amount of such Advance; provided, however, that the
Guarantor may, by written notice to the Master Servicer, revoke the Master
Servicer's right to make such Advances pursuant to clauses (ii) and (iii) of
this Section 5.05(a), upon which revocation the Master Servicer shall (x)
prior to the next Deposit Date, remit from its own funds an amount equal to
the aggregate amount of all Advances previously made by it out of funds from
the Collection Account and not repaid from collections on the Mortgage Loans
and related Advances then due, and thereafter (y) only make such Advances
pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 5.05(a). Any funds being held in the
Collection Account for future distribution to Certificateholders and so used
shall be replaced by the Master Servicer from its own funds by remittance to
the Trustee for deposit in the Certificate Account on or before any future
Deposit Date to the extent that funds in the Certificate Account on such
Deposit Date shall be less than payments to Certificateholders required to be
made on the related Distribution Date. The Master Servicer and each Servicer
shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the Collection Account for all
Advances made by it as provided in Section 4.02. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein, in the event the Master Servicer determines in its
reasonable judgement that an Advance is non-recoverable, the Master Servicer
shall be under no obligation to make such Advance.

         (b) In the event that the Master Servicer or Servicer fails for any
reason to make an Advance required to be made pursuant to this Section 5.05 on
or before the Deposit Date, the Trustee, as successor Master Servicer pursuant
to Section 6.14, shall, on or before the related Distribution Date, deposit in
the Certificate Account an amount equal to the excess of (a) Advances required
to be made by the Master Servicer or the Servicer that would have been
deposited in such Certificate Account over (b) the amount of any Advance made
by the Master Servicer or any Servicer with respect to such Distribution Date;
provided, however, that the Trustee shall be required to make such Advance
only if it is not prohibited by law from doing so and it has determined that
such Advance would be recoverable from amounts to be received with respect to
such Mortgage Loan, including late payments, Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance
Proceeds, or otherwise. The Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed from
the Certificate Account for Advances made by it pursuant to this Section 5.05
as if it were the Master Servicer.

         Section 5.06. Compensating Interest Payments. The amount of the
Aggregate Master Servicing Compensation payable to the Master Servicer in
respect of any Distribution Date shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the
amount of any Compensating Interest Payment for such Distribution Date, but
only to the extent Prepayment Interest Shortfalls relating to such
Distribution Date are required to be paid but not actually paid by the
Servicers on the applicable Remittance Date. Such amount shall not be treated
as an Advance and shall not be reimbursable to the Master Servicer.

         Section 5.07. Basis Risk Reserve Fund. (a) On the Closing Date, the
Trustee shall establish and maintain in its name, in trust for the benefit of
the holders of the LIBOR Certificates, a Basis Risk Reserve Fund, into which
the Seller shall deposit $5,000. The Basis Risk Reserve Fund shall be an
Eligible Account, and funds on deposit therein shall be held separate and
apart from, and shall not be commingled with, any other moneys, including,
without limitation, other moneys of the Trustee held pursuant to this
Agreement.

         (b) The Trustee shall make withdrawals from the Basis Risk Reserve
Fund to make distributions pursuant to Section 5.02(e)(iii).

         (c) Funds in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund shall be invested in
Eligible Investments. Any earnings on such amounts shall be distributed to the
Class X Certificateholder pursuant to Section 5.02(e)(x). The Class X
Certificate shall evidence ownership of the Basis Risk Reserve Fund for
federal income tax purposes and the Holder thereof shall direct the Trustee,
in writing, as to investment of amounts on deposit therein. The Class X
Certificateholder shall be liable for any losses incurred on such investments.
In the absence of written instructions from the Class X Certificateholder as
to investment of funds on deposit in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund, such funds
shall be invested in the Trustee's Corporate Trust Short Term Investment Fund.
Any amounts on deposit in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund in excess of the
Required Reserve Fund Deposit on any Distribution Date shall be distributed to
the Class X Certificateholder on the following Distribution Date. For all
Federal income tax purposes, amounts transferred by REMIC 2 to the Basis Risk
Reserve Fund shall be treated as amounts distributed by REMIC 2 to the Class X
Certificateholder.

         (d) Upon termination of the Trust Fund, any amounts remaining in the
Basis Risk Reserve Fund shall be distributed to the Class X Certificateholder
pursuant to Section 5.02(e)(x).

                                  ARTICLE VI

                   CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE; EVENTS OF DEFAULT

         Section 6.01. Duties of Trustee. (a) The Trustee, except during the
continuance of an Event of Default, undertakes to perform such duties and only
such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. Any permissive
right of the Trustee provided for in this Agreement shall not be construed as
a duty of the Trustee. If an Event of Default has occurred and has not
otherwise been cured or waived, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights
and powers vested in it by this Agreement and use the same degree of care and
skill in their exercise as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such Person's own affairs unless the Trustee
is acting as Master Servicer, in which case it shall use the same degree of
care and skill as the Master Servicer hereunder.

         (b) The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates,
statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments
furnished to the Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished
pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine
whether they are in the form required by this Agreement; provided, however,
that the Trustee shall not be responsible for the accuracy or content of any
such resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or
other instrument furnished by the Master Servicer to the Trustee pursuant to
this Agreement, and shall not be required to recalculate or verify any
numerical information furnished to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement.
Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, if any such resolution,
certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument
is found not to conform to the form required by this Agreement in a material
manner the Trustee shall take such action as it deems appropriate to cause the
instrument to be corrected, and if the instrument is not corrected to the
Trustee's satisfaction, the Trustee will provide notice thereof to the
Guarantor and will, at the expense of the Seller, which expense shall be
reasonable given the scope and nature of the required action, take such
further action as directed by the Guarantor.

         (c) The Trustee shall not have any liability arising out of or in
connection with this Agreement, except for its negligence or willful
misconduct. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the
Trustee shall not be liable for special, indirect or consequential losses or
damages of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, lost profits).
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) The Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect
         to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good
         faith in accordance with the direction of Holders of Certificates as
         provided in Section 6.18 hereof;

                  (ii) For all purposes under this Agreement, the Trustee
         shall not be deemed to have notice of any Event of Default (other
         than resulting from a failure by the Master Servicer (i) to remit
         funds (or to make Advances) or (ii) to furnish information to the
         Trustee when required to do so) unless a Responsible Officer of the
         Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any
         event which is in fact such a default is received by the Trustee at
         the Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references the Holders of
         the Certificates and this Agreement;

                  (iii) No provision of this Agreement shall require the
         Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any
         financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
         hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it
         shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such
         funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not
         reasonably assured to it; and

                  (iv) The Trustee shall not be responsible for any act or
         omission of the Master Servicer.

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

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

         (f) The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds
or otherwise incur financial liability for the performance of any of its
duties hereunder or 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 or any Servicer under this
Agreement or any Servicing Agreement except during such time, if any, as the
Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties,
powers and privileges of, the Master Servicer in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement.

         (g) Subject to Section 4.04, the Trustee shall not be held liable by
reason of any insufficiency in any account (including without limitation the
Collection Amount) held by or on behalf of the Trustee resulting from any
investment loss on any Eligible Investment included therein (except to the
extent that the Trustee is the obligor and has defaulted thereon).

         (h) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Trustee shall have no
duty (A) to see to any recording, filing, or depositing of this Agreement or
any agreement referred to herein or any financing statement or continuation
statement evidencing a security interest, or to see to the maintenance of any
such recording or filing or depositing or to any rerecording, refiling or
redepositing of any thereof, (B) to see to any insurance, (C) to see to the
payment or discharge of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge or
any lien or encumbrance of any kind owing with respect to, assessed or levied
against, any part of the Trust Fund other than from funds available in the
Collection Account or the Certificate Account, or (D) to confirm or verify the
contents of any reports or certificates of the Master Servicer delivered to
the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement believed by the Trustee to be genuine
and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

         Section 6.02. Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee. Except as
otherwise provided in Section 6.01:

                  (i) The Trustee may request, and may rely and shall be
         protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution,
         Officer's Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other
         certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,
         consent, order, approval, 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;

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

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

                  (iv) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
         continuing, 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 (provided the same
         appears regular on its face), unless requested in writing to do so by
         Holders of at least a majority in Class Principal Amount (or
         Percentage Interest) of each Class of Certificates; provided,
         however, that, if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee
         of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in
         the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee,
         not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it
         by the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee may require reasonable
         indemnity against such expense or liability or payment of such
         estimated expenses as a condition to proceeding. The reasonable
         expense thereof shall be paid by the Holders requesting such
         investigation;

                  (v) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers
         hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or
         through agents, custodians or attorneys, which agents, custodians or
         attorneys shall have any and all of the rights, powers, duties and
         obligations of the Trustee conferred on them by such appointment,
         provided that the Trustee shall continue to be responsible for its
         duties and obligations hereunder to the extent provided herein, and
         provided further that the Trustee shall not be responsible for any
         misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent or attorney
         appointed with due care by the Trustee;

                  (vi) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise
         any of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to
         institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation
         hereto, in each case 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;

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

                  (viii) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or
         surety in respect of the execution of the Trust Fund created hereby
         or the powers granted hereunder.

         Section 6.03. Trustee Not Liable for Certificates. The Trustee makes
no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of
the Certificates (other than the certificate of authentication on the
Certificates) or of any Mortgage Loan, or related document save that the
Trustee represents that, assuming due execution and delivery by the other
parties hereto, this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by it and constitutes its valid and binding obligation, enforceable
against it in accordance with its terms except that such enforceability may be
subject to (A) applicable bankruptcy and insolvency laws and other similar
laws affecting the enforcement of the rights of creditors generally, and (B)
general principles of equity regardless of whether such enforcement is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. The Trustee shall not be
accountable for the use or application by the Depositor of funds paid to the
Depositor in consideration of the assignment of the Mortgage Loans to the
Trust Fund by the Depositor or for the use or application of any funds
deposited into the Collection Account, the Certificate Account, any Escrow
Account or any other fund or account maintained with respect to the
Certificates. The Trustee shall not be responsible for the legality or
validity of this Agreement or the validity, priority, perfection or
sufficiency of the security for the Certificates issued or intended to be
issued hereunder. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Trustee shall have
no responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement in any
public office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection
of any security interest or lien granted to it hereunder or to record this
Agreement.

         Section 6.04. Trustee May Own Certificates. The Trustee and any
Affiliate or agent of the Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may
become the owner or pledgee of Certificates and may transact banking and trust
business with the other parties hereto with the same rights it would have if
it were not Trustee or such agent.

         Section 6.05. Eligibility Requirements for Trustee. The Trustee
hereunder shall at all times be (i) an institution insured by the FDIC and
(ii) a corporation or national banking association, organized and doing
business under the laws of any State or the United States of America,
authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a
combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to
supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such corporation
or national banking association publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising
or examining authority, then, for the purposes of this Section, the combined
capital and surplus of such corporation or national banking association shall
be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most
recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall
cease to be eligible in accordance with provisions of this Section, the
Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified
in Section 6.06.

         Section 6.06. Resignation and Removal of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may
at any time resign and be discharged from the trust hereby created by giving
written notice thereof to the Depositor, the Guarantor and the Master
Servicer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor, with the
consent of the Guarantor, will promptly appoint a successor trustee by written
instrument, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning
Trustee, one copy to the successor trustee, one copy to the Master Servicer
and one copy to the Guarantor. If no successor trustee shall have been so
appointed and shall 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.

         (b) If at any time (i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of Section 6.05 and shall fail to resign after
written request therefor by the Depositor or Guarantor, (ii) the Trustee shall
become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a
receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public
officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or
affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, or
(iii) a tax is imposed or threatened with respect to the Trust Fund by any
state in which the Trustee or the Trust Fund held by the Trustee is located,
then the Guarantor may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by
written instrument, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the
Trustee so removed, one copy to the successor trustee and one copy to the
Master Servicer.

         (c) If at any time the continued use of the Trustee would result in a
downgrading of the rating by the Rating Agencies of any Class of Certificates
with a rating, then the Depositor shall remove the Trustee and appoint a
successor trustee by written instrument, one copy of which instrument shall be
delivered to the Trustee so removed, one copy to the successor trustee, one
copy to the Guarantor and one copy to the Master Servicer.

         (d) The Holders of more than 51% of the Aggregate Voting Interests of
the Certificates may at any time upon 30 days' written notice (sent by mail or
facsimile) to the Trustee and to the Depositor remove the Trustee by such
written instrument, signed by such Holders or their attorney-in-fact duly
authorized, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Depositor,
one copy to the Trustee so removed, one copy to the Master Servicer, and one
copy to the Guarantor; the Guarantor shall thereupon use its best efforts to
appoint a mutually acceptable successor trustee in accordance with this
Section.

         (e) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall
become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as
provided in Section 6.07.

         Section 6.07. Successor Trustee. (a) Any successor trustee appointed
as provided in Section 6.06 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Guarantor and to its predecessor trustee
an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the
resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and
such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its
predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as trustee
herein. The predecessor trustee shall deliver to the successor trustee (or
assign to the Trustee its interest under each Custodial Agreement, to the
extent permitted thereunder) all Mortgage Files and documents and statements
related to each Mortgage File held by it hereunder, and shall duly assign,
transfer, deliver and pay over to the successor trustee the entire Trust Fund,
together with all necessary instruments of transfer and assignment or other
documents properly executed necessary to effect such transfer and such of the
record or copies thereof maintained by the predecessor trustee in the
administration hereof as may be requested by the successor trustee and shall
thereupon be discharged from all duties and responsibilities under this
Agreement. In addition, the Master Servicer and the predecessor trustee shall
execute and deliver such other instruments and do such other things as may
reasonably be required to more fully and certainly vest and confirm in the
successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

         (b) No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section unless at the time of such appointment such successor trustee shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 6.05.

         (c) Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided
in this Section, the outgoing Trustee shall mail notice of the succession of
such trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as
shown in the Certificate Register, to the Rating Agencies and to the
Guarantor. The expenses of such mailing shall be borne by the outgoing
Trustee.

         Section 6.08. Merger or Consolidation of Trustee. Any Person into
which the Trustee may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any
Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the
Trustee shall be a party, or any Persons succeeding to the corporate trust
business of the Trustee, shall be the successor to the Trustee hereunder,
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
provided that such Person shall be eligible under the provisions of Section
6.05.

         Section 6.09. Appointment of Co-Trustee, Separate Trustee or
Custodian. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, the
Trustee, the Depositor, the Guarantor or the Certificateholders evidencing 51%
of the Class Principal Amount (or Percentage Interest) of each Class of
Certificates shall have the power from time to time to appoint one or more
Persons to act either as co-trustees jointly with the Trustee, or as separate
trustees, or as custodians, for the purpose of holding title to, foreclosing
or otherwise taking action with respect to any Mortgage Loan outside the state
where the Trustee has its principal place of business where such separate
trustee or co-trustee is necessary or advisable (or the Trustee has been
advised by the Master Servicer, the Guarantor or the Depositor that such
separate trustee or co-trustee is necessary or advisable) under the laws of
any state in which a property securing a Mortgage Loan is located or for the
purpose of otherwise conforming to any legal requirement, restriction or
condition in any state in which a property securing a Mortgage Loan is located
or in any state in which any portion of the Trust Fund is located. The
separate Trustees, co-trustees, or custodians so appointed shall be trustees
or custodians for the benefit of all the Certificateholders and shall have
such powers, rights and remedies as shall be specified in the instrument of
appointment; provided, however, that no such appointment shall, or shall be
deemed to, constitute the appointee an agent of the Trustee. The obligation of
the Trustee to make Advances pursuant to Section 5.05 and 6.14 hereof shall
not be affected or assigned by the appointment of a co-trustee.

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

                  (i) all powers, duties, obligations and rights conferred
         upon the Trustee in respect of the receipt, custody and payment of
         moneys shall be exercised solely by the Trustee;

                  (ii) all other rights, powers, duties and obligations
         conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed
         upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate
         trustee, co-trustee, or custodian jointly, except to the extent that
         under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts
         are to be performed the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified
         to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers,
         duties and obligations, including the holding of title to the Trust
         Fund or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction, shall be
         exercised and performed by such separate trustee, co-trustee, or
         custodian;

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

                  (iv) the Trustee or the Certificateholders evidencing 51% of
         the Aggregate Voting Interests of the Certificates may at any time
         accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee, co-trustee
         or custodian, so appointed by it or them, if such resignation or
         removal does not violate the other terms of this Agreement.

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

         (d) Any separate trustee, co-trustee or custodian 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, co-trustee or custodian 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.

         (e) No separate trustee, co-trustee or custodian hereunder shall be
required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section
6.05 hereunder and no notice to Certificateholders of the appointment shall be
required under Section 6.07 hereof, but any such separate trustee, co-trustee
or custodian must be acceptable to the Guarantor.

         (f) The Trustee agrees to instruct the co-trustees, if any, to the
extent necessary to fulfill the Trustee's obligations hereunder.

         (g) The Trustee shall pay the reasonable compensation of the
co-trustees to the extent, and in accordance with the standards, specified in
Section 6.12 hereof (which compensation shall not reduce any compensation
payable to the Trustee under such Section).

         Section 6.10. Authenticating Agents. (a) The Trustee may appoint one
or more Authenticating Agents which shall be authorized to act on behalf of
the Trustee in authenticating Certificates. Wherever reference is made in this
Agreement to the authentication of Certificates by the Trustee or the
Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to
include authentication on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and
a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent must be a corporation
organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or
of any state, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000,
authorized under such laws to do a trust business, subject to supervision or
examination by federal or state authorities and acceptable to the Guarantor.

         (b) Any Person into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from
any merger, conversion or consolidation to which any Authenticating Agent
shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the corporate agency business of
any Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be the Authenticating Agent
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

         (c) Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving at
least 30 days' advance written notice of resignation to the Trustee, the
Guarantor and the Depositor. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency
of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such
Authenticating Agent, the Guarantor and the Depositor. Upon receiving a notice
of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time any
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 6.10, the Trustee may appoint a successor
Authenticating Agent, shall give written notice of such appointment to the
Depositor and the Guarantor and shall mail notice of such appointment to all
Holders of Certificates. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of
its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers,
duties and responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as
if originally named as Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent
shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section 6.10.
No Authenticating Agent shall have responsibility or liability for any action
taken by it as such at the direction of the Trustee. Any Authenticating Agent
shall be entitled to reasonable compensation for its services and, if paid by
the Trustee, it shall be a reimbursable expense pursuant to Section 6.12.

         Section 6.11. Indemnification of Trustee. The Trustee and its
directors, officers, employees and agents shall be entitled to indemnification
from the Trust Fund for any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection
with any legal proceeding and incurred without negligence or willful
misconduct on their part, arising out of, or in connection with, the
acceptance or administration of the trusts created hereunder, including the
costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim in connection
with the exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder,
provided that:

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

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

                  (iii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
         Section 6.11, the Trust Fund shall not be liable for settlement of
         any such claim by the Trustee entered into without the prior consent
         of the Depositor and the Guarantor, which consent shall not be
         unreasonably withheld.

         The provisions of this Section 6.11 shall survive any termination of
this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Trustee and shall be
construed to include, but not be limited to any loss, liability or expense
under any environmental law.

         Section 6.12. Fees and Expenses of Trustee. The Trustee will receive
compensation and reimbursement or payment of its expenses hereunder and under
each Custodial Agreement from the Depositor as provided in writing between the
Depositor and the Trustee.

         Section 6.13. Collection of Monies. Except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement, the Trustee may demand payment or delivery of, and
shall receive and collect, all money and other property payable to or
receivable by the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement. The Trustee shall hold
all such money and property received by it as part of the Trust Fund and shall
distribute it as provided in this Agreement. If the Trustee shall not have
timely received amounts to be remitted with respect to the Mortgage Loans from
the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall request the Master Servicer to make
such distribution as promptly as practicable or legally permitted. If the
Trustee shall subsequently receive any such amount, it may withdraw such
request.

         Section 6.14. Events of Default; Trustee To Act; Appointment of
Successor. (a) The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall
constitute an "Event of Default":

                  (i) Any failure on the part of the Master Servicer duly to
         observe or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants
         or agreements on the part of such Master Servicer contained in this
         Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of 30 days after
         the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same
         to be remedied, shall have been given to such Master Servicer and
         Guarantor by the Trustee or the Guarantor, or to such Master Servicer
         and the Trustee by the Holders of not less than 51% of the Aggregate
         Voting Interests of the Certificates; or

                  (ii) A decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory
         authority having jurisdiction for the appointment of a conservator or
         receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt,
         marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for
         the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered
         against the Master Servicer, and such decree or order shall have
         remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days or
         any Rating Agency reduces or withdraws or threatens to reduce or
         withdraw the rating of the Certificates because of the financial
         condition or loan servicing capability of such Master Servicer; or

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

                  (iv) 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 any applicable insolvency or
         reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its
         creditors or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or

                  (v) The Master Servicer shall be dissolved, or shall dispose
         of all or substantially all of its assets, or consolidate with or
         merge into another entity or shall permit another entity to
         consolidate or merge into it, such that the resulting entity does not
         meet the criteria for a successor servicer as specified in Section
         9.27 hereof; or

                  (vi) If a representation or warranty set forth in Section
         9.14 hereof shall prove to be incorrect as of the time made in any
         respect that materially and adversely affects the interests of the
         Certificateholders, and the circumstance or condition in respect of
         which such representation or warranty was incorrect shall not have
         been eliminated or cured within 30 days after the date on which
         written notice of such incorrect representation or warranty shall
         have been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee, or to the
         Master Servicer and the Trustee by the Holders of not less than 51%
         of the Aggregate Voting Interests of the Certificates; or

                  (vii) A sale or pledge of any of the rights of the Master
         Servicer hereunder or an assignment of this Agreement by the Master
         Servicer or a delegation of the rights or duties of the Master
         Servicer hereunder shall have occurred in any manner not otherwise
         permitted hereunder and without the prior written consent of the
         Trustee, the Guarantor and Certificateholders holding more than 51%
         of the Aggregate Voting Interests of the Certificates; or

                  (viii) Any Servicer at any time is not a FHLMC-approved
         servicer, and the Master Servicer has not terminated the rights and
         obligations of such Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement
         and replaced such Servicer with a FHLMC-approved servicer within 45
         days of the absence of such approval;

                  (ix) The Guarantor has declared an Event of Default pursuant
         to Section 9.33; or

                  (x) After receipt of notice from the Trustee, any failure of
         the Master Servicer to remit to the Trustee any payment required to
         be made to the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders under
         the terms of this Agreement, including any Advance, on any Deposit
         Date.

         If an Event of Default described in clauses (i) through (ix) of this
Section 6.14 shall occur, then, in each and every case, subject to applicable
law, so long as any such Event of Default shall not have been remedied within
any period of time prescribed by this Section 6.14, the Trustee, by notice in
writing to the Master Servicer and the Guarantor may, and shall, if so
directed by Certificateholders evidencing more than 51% of the Aggregate
Voting Interests of the Certificates affected thereby, terminate all of the
rights and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder and in and to the
Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. If an Event of Default described in
clause (x) of this Section 6.14 shall occur, then, in each and every case,
subject to applicable law, the Trustee, by notice in writing to the Master
Servicer and the Guarantor, shall promptly terminate all of the rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder and in and to the Mortgage Loans
and the proceeds thereof. On or after the receipt by the Master Servicer of
such written notice or a notice of removal pursuant to Section 4.03(b), all
authority and power of the Master Servicer, and only in its capacity as Master
Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or
otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under
the terms of this Agreement; and the Trustee is hereby authorized and
empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the defaulting Master Servicer
as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments,
and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to
effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the
transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related
documents or otherwise. The defaulting Master Servicer agrees to cooperate
with the Trustee and the Guarantor in effecting the termination of the
defaulting Master Servicer's responsibilities and rights hereunder as Master
Servicer including, without limitation, notifying the Servicers of the
assignment of the master servicing function and providing the Trustee or its
designee all documents and records in electronic or other form reasonably
requested by it to enable the Trustee or its designee to assume the defaulting
Master Servicer's functions hereunder and the transfer to the Trustee for
administration by it of all amounts which shall at the time be or should have
been deposited by the defaulting Master Servicer in the Collection Account
maintained by such defaulting Master Servicer and any other account or fund
maintained with respect to the Certificates or thereafter received with
respect to the Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer being terminated shall bear
its costs of a master servicing transfer and the reasonable out-of-pocket fees
and expenses of the Trustee associated with such master servicing transfer.

         Notwithstanding the termination of its activities as Master Servicer,
each terminated Master Servicer shall continue to be entitled to reimbursement
to the extent provided in Section 4.02(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) and (ix) to
the extent such reimbursement relates to the period prior to such Master
Servicer's termination.

         If any Event of Default shall occur, the Trustee, upon becoming aware
of the occurrence thereof, shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies of the
nature and extent of such Event of Default. The Trustee shall immediately give
written notice to the Master Servicer and the Guarantor upon the Master
Servicer's failure to remit funds on the Deposit Date.

         (b) On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of
termination from the Trustee or the Guarantor pursuant to Section 6.14(a) or
Section 4.03(b) or the Trustee or the Guarantor receives the resignation of
the Master Servicer evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section
9.28, the Trustee, unless another master servicer shall have been appointed,
shall be the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity
as such under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for
herein and shall have all the rights and powers and be subject to all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising
thereafter placed on the Master Servicer hereunder, including the obligation
to make Advances; provided, however, that any failure to perform such duties
or responsibilities caused by the Master Servicer's failure to provide
information required by this Agreement shall not be considered a default by
the Trustee hereunder. In addition, the Trustee shall have no responsibility
for any act or omission of the Master Servicer prior to the issuance of any
notice of termination and shall have no liability relating to the
representations and warranties of the Master Servicer set forth in Section
9.14. In the Trustee's capacity as such successor, the Trustee shall have the
same limitations on liability herein granted to the Master Servicer. As
compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive all
compensation payable to the Master Servicer under this Agreement, including
the Master Servicing Fee.

         (c) Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be
unwilling to continue to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act, appoint,
or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established
housing and home finance institution servicer, master servicer, servicing or
mortgage servicing institution having a net worth of not less than $15,000,000
and meeting such other standards for a successor master servicer as are set
forth in this Agreement (and which successor master servicer is otherwise
acceptable to the Guarantor), as the successor to such Master Servicer in the
assumption of all of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of a master
servicer, like the Master Servicer. Any entity designated by the Trustee as a
successor master servicer may be an Affiliate of the Trustee; provided,
however, that, unless such Affiliate meets the net worth requirements and
other standards set forth herein for a successor master servicer (and which
successor master servicer is otherwise acceptable to the Guarantor), the
Trustee, in its individual capacity shall agree, at the time of such
designation, to be and remain liable to the Trust Fund for such Affiliate's
actions and omissions in performing its duties hereunder. In connection with
such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make such arrangements for
the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as it and
such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall
be in excess of that permitted to the Master Servicer hereunder. The Trustee
and such successor shall take such actions, consistent with this Agreement, as
shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession and may make other
arrangements with respect to the servicing to be conducted hereunder which are
not inconsistent herewith. The Master Servicer shall cooperate with the
Trustee and any successor master servicer in effecting the termination of the
Master Servicer's responsibilities and rights hereunder including, without
limitation, notifying Servicers of the assignment of the master servicing
functions and providing the Trustee and successor master servicer, as
applicable, all documents and records in electronic or other form reasonably
requested by it to enable it to assume the Master Servicer's functions
hereunder and the transfer to the Trustee or such successor master servicer,
as applicable, all amounts which shall at the time be or should have been
deposited by the Master Servicer in the Collection Account and any other
account or fund maintained with respect to the Certificates or thereafter be
received with respect to the Mortgage Loans. 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 caused by (i) the failure of the Master Servicer to
deliver, or any delay in delivering, cash, documents or records to it, (ii)
the failure of the Master Servicer to cooperate as required by this Agreement,
(iii) the failure of the Master Servicer to deliver the Mortgage Loan data to
the Trustee as required by this Agreement or (iv) restrictions imposed by any
regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Master Servicer.

         Section 6.15. Additional Remedies of Trustee Upon Event of Default.
During the continuance of any Event of Default, so long as such Event of
Default shall not have been remedied, the Trustee, in addition to the rights
specified in Section 6.14, shall have the right, in its own name and as
trustee of an express trust, to take all actions now or hereafter existing at
law, in equity or by statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect
the interests, and enforce the rights and remedies, of the Certificateholders
(including the institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and
other proceedings and the filings of proofs of claim and debt in connection
therewith). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no
remedy provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy,
and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other
remedy, and no delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair
any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of
Default.

         Section 6.16. Waiver of Defaults. Holders of 51% or more of the
Aggregate Voting Interests of Certificateholders may waive any default or
Event of Default by the Master Servicer in the performance of its obligations
hereunder, except that a default in the making of any required deposit to the
Certificate Account that would result in a failure of the Trustee to make any
required payment of principal of or interest on the Certificates may only be
waived with the consent of 100% of the affected Certificateholders. Upon any
such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any
Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for
every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent
or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent
expressly so waived.

         Section 6.17. Notification to Holders. Upon termination of the Master
Servicer or appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer, in each case as
provided herein, the Trustee shall promptly mail notice thereof by first class
mail to the Certificateholders and to the Guarantor at their respective
addresses appearing on the Certificate Register. The Trustee shall also,
within 45 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default known to the
Trustee, give written notice thereof to Certificateholders, unless such Event
of Default shall have been cured or waived prior to the issuance of such
notice and within such 45-day period.

         Section 6.18. Directions by Certificateholders and Duties of Trustee
During Event of Default. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.01 hereof,
during the continuance of any Event of Default, Holders of Certificates
evidencing not less than 51% of the Aggregate Voting Interests of Certificates
affected thereby may direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or
power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Agreement; provided, however,
that the Trustee shall be under no obligation to pursue any such remedy, or to
exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement
(including, without limitation, (i) the conducting or defending of any
administrative action or litigation hereunder or in relation hereto and (ii)
the terminating of the Master Servicer or any successor master servicer from
its rights and duties as master servicer hereunder) at the request, order or
direction of any of the Certificateholders, unless such Certificateholders
shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the
cost, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; and,
provided further, that, subject to the provisions of Section 8.01, the Trustee
shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee,
in accordance with an Opinion of Counsel, determines that the action or
proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good
faith determines that the action or proceeding so directed would involve it in
personal liability or be unjustly prejudicial to the non-assenting
Certificateholders.

         Section 6.19. Action Upon Certain Failures of the Master Servicer and
Upon Event of Default. In the event that the Trustee shall have actual
knowledge of any action or inaction of the Master Servicer that would become
an Event of Default upon the Master Servicer's failure to remedy the same
after notice, the Trustee shall give notice thereof to the Master Servicer and
the Guarantor.

                                  ARTICLE VII

                        PURCHASE OF MORTGAGE LOANS AND
                         TERMINATION OF THE TRUST FUND

         Section 7.01. Purchase of Mortgage Loans; Termination of Trust Fund
Upon Purchase or Liquidation of All Mortgage Loans. (a) The respective
obligations and responsibilities of the Trustee and the Master Servicer
created hereby (other than the obligation of the Trustee to make payments to
Certificateholders as set forth in Section 7.02, the obligation of the Master
Servicer to make a final remittance to the Trustee for deposit into the
Certificate Account pursuant to Section 4.01 and the obligations of the Master
Servicer to the Trustee pursuant to Sections 9.10 and 9.14) shall terminate on
the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage
Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and the disposition of all REO Property and
(ii) the sale of the property held by the Trust Fund in accordance with
Section 7.01(b) or (c); provided, however, that in no event shall the Trust
Fund created hereby continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death
of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late
Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date
hereof. Any termination of the Trust Fund shall be carried out in such a
manner so that the termination of each REMIC included therein shall qualify as
a "qualified liquidation" under the REMIC Provisions as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel.

         (b) On any Distribution Date occurring on or after the Initial
Optional Purchase Date, the Class X Certificateholder has the option to cause
the Trust Fund to adopt a plan of complete liquidation pursuant to Section
7.03(a)(i) hereof to sell all of its property. Upon exercise of such option,
the property of the Trust Fund shall be sold to the Class X Certificateholder
at a price (the "Termination Price") equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the
unpaid principal balance of each Mortgage Loan on the day of such purchase
plus interest accrued thereon at the applicable Mortgage Rate with respect to
any Mortgage Loan from the Due Date in the Collection Period immediately
preceding the related Distribution Date to the date of such repurchase, (ii)
the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan related to any REO Property
and any other property held by any REMIC and (iii) any unpaid Master Servicing
Fee and any amounts owing to the Guarantor under this Agreement together with
the amount of any Advances and Servicing Advances made with respect to the
Mortgage Loans that are reimbursable to the Master Servicer. If the Class X
Certificateholder has not exercised such option by the close of business on
the third Distribution Date following the Initial Optional Purchase Date, the
Depositor shall have the option to cause the Trust Fund to adopt a plan of
complete liquidation pursuant to Section 7.03(a)(i) hereof to sell all of its
property to the Depositor at the Termination Price. If the Depositor elects to
exercise such right, then upon receipt of notice thereof the Trustee shall
promptly notify the Class X Certificateholder thereof, in writing, and shall
effect the transfer of the Mortgage Loans and related property to the
Depositor as provided herein only if the Trustee does not receive notification
from the Class X Certificateholder within ten Business Days of the sending of
such notice that such Class X Certificateholder intends to promptly exercise
its option to purchase such Mortgage Loans and related property. The Master
Servicer shall be reimbursed from the Termination Price for any Mortgage Loan
or related REO Property for any Advances and Servicing Advances made with
respect to the Mortgage Loans that are reimbursable to it under this
Agreement, together with any accrued and unpaid fees and expenses due to the
Master Servicer hereunder.

         Section 7.02. Procedure Upon Termination of Trust Fund. (a) Notice of
any termination pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.01, specifying the
Distribution Date upon which the final distribution shall be made, shall be
given promptly by the Trustee by first class mail to Certificateholders mailed
upon (x) the sale of all of the property of the Trust Fund by the Trustee
pursuant to Section 7.01(b) or (y) upon the final payment or other liquidation
of the last Mortgage Loan or REO Property in the Trust Fund. Such notice shall
specify (A) the Distribution Date upon which final distribution on the
Certificates of all amounts required to be distributed to Certificateholders
pursuant to Section 5.02 will be made upon presentation and surrender of the
Certificates at the Corporate Trust Office, and (B) that the Record Date
otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, distribution
being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the
office or agency of the Trustee therein specified. The Trustee shall give such
notice to the Master Servicer, the Guarantor and the Certificate Registrar at
the time such notice is given to Holders of the Certificates. Upon any such
termination, the duties of the Certificate Registrar with respect to the
Certificates shall terminate and the Trustee shall terminate, or request the
Master Servicer to terminate, the Collection Account it maintains, the
Certificate Account and any other account or fund maintained with respect to
the Certificates, subject to the Trustee's obligation hereunder to hold all
amounts payable to Certificateholders in trust without interest pending such
payment.

         (b) In the event that all of the Holders do not surrender their
Certificates for cancellation within three months after the time 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 one year after the second notice any Certificates shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take appropriate steps to
contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of such
Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the amounts
distributable to such Holders. If within two years after the second notice any
Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee
shall, subject to applicable state law relating to escheatment, hold all
amounts distributable to such Holders for the benefit of such Holders. No
interest shall accrue on any amount held by the Trustee and not distributed to
a Certificateholder due to such Certificateholder's failure to surrender its
Certificate(s) for payment of the final distribution thereon in accordance
with this Section.

         Section 7.03. Additional Trust Fund Termination Requirements. (a) Any
termination of the Trust Fund shall be effected in accordance with the
following additional requirements, unless the Trustee seeks (at the request of
the party exercising the option to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans pursuant
to Section 7.01(b)), and subsequently receives, an Opinion of Counsel (at the
expense of such requesting party), addressed to the Trustee and the Guarantor
to the effect that the failure of the Trust Fund to comply with the
requirements of this Section 7.03 will not (i) result in the imposition of
taxes on any REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or (ii) cause any REMIC
established hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding:

                  (i) The Trustee shall sell all of the assets of the Trust
         Fund for cash and, within 90 days of such sale, shall distribute the
         proceeds of such sale to the Certificateholders in complete
         liquidation of the Trust Fund, REMIC 1 and REMIC 2;

                  (ii) The Trustee shall attach a statement to the final
         Federal income tax return for each of REMIC 1 and REMIC 2 stating
         that pursuant to Treasury Regulation ss. 1.860F-1, the first day of
         the 90-day liquidation period for each such REMIC was the date on
         which the Trustee sold the assets of the Trust Fund.

         (b) By its acceptance of a Residual Certificate, each Holder thereof
hereby (i) authorizes the Trustee to take the action described in paragraph
(a) above and (ii) agrees to take such other action as may be necessary to
facilitate liquidation of each REMIC created under this Agreement, which
authorization shall be binding upon all successor Residual Certificateholders.

                                 ARTICLE VIII

                         RIGHTS OF CERTIFICATEHOLDERS

         Section 8.01. Limitation on Rights of Holders. (a) The death or
incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate to terminate this
Agreement or this Trust Fund, nor entitle such Certificateholder's legal
representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or take any action or
proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of this Trust Fund, nor
otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto
or any of them. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no
Certificateholder, solely by virtue of its status as a Certificateholder,
shall have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the Master
Servicer or the operation and management of the Trust Fund, or the obligations
of the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth, or contained in
the terms of the Certificates, be construed so as to constitute the
Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members of an association,
nor shall any Certificateholder be under any liability to any third person by
reason of any action taken by the parties to this Agreement pursuant to any
provision hereof.

         (b) No Certificateholder, solely by virtue of its status as
Certificateholder, shall have any right by virtue or by availing of any
provision of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in
equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, unless such
Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee a written notice of an Event
of Default and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and
unless also the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the
Aggregate Voting Interests of the Certificates shall have made written request
upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name
as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable
indemnity as it may require against the cost, expenses and liabilities to be
incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for sixty 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 and no direction
inconsistent with such written request has been given such Trustee during such
sixty-day period by such Certificateholders; it being understood and intended,
and being expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other
Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates
shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue or by availing of any
provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the
Holders of any other of such Certificates, or to obtain or seek to obtain
priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right
under this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the benefit
of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement of the
provisions of this Section, each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee
shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

         Section 8.02. Access to List of Holders. (a) If the Trustee is not
acting as Certificate Registrar, the Certificate Registrar will furnish or
cause to be furnished to the Trustee, within fifteen days after receipt by the
Certificate Registrar of a request by the Trustee in writing, a list, in such
form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the
Certificateholders of each Class as of the most recent Record Date.

         (b) If three or more Holders (hereinafter referred to as
"Applicants") apply in writing to the Trustee, and such application states
that the Applicants desire to communicate with other Holders with respect to
their rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and is accompanied
by a copy of the communication which such Applicants propose to transmit, then
the Trustee shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such
application, afford such Applicants reasonable access during the normal
business hours of the Trustee to the most recent list of Certificateholders
held by the Trustee or shall, as an alternative, send, at the Applicants'
expense, the written communication proffered by the Applicants to all
Certificateholders at their addresses as they appear in the Certificate
Register.

         (c) Every Holder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agrees with
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Guarantor, the Certificate Registrar
and the Trustee that neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Guarantor, the Certificate Registrar nor the Trustee shall be held accountable
by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and
addresses of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from
which such information was derived.

         Section 8.03. Acts of Holders of Certificates. (a) Any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action
provided by this Agreement to be given or taken by Holders, may be embodied in
and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed
by such Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except
as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective
when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and the
Guarantor and, where expressly required herein, to the Master Servicer. Such
instrument or instruments (as the action embodies therein and evidenced
thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as an "Act" of the Holders signing
such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or
of a writing appointing any such agents shall be sufficient for any purpose of
this Agreement and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and Master Servicer, if
made in the manner provided in this Section. Each of the Trustee and Master
Servicer shall promptly notify the other and the Guarantor of receipt of any
such instrument by it, and shall promptly forward a copy of such instrument to
the other and the Guarantor.

         (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such
execution or by the certificate of any notary public or other officer
authorized by law to take acknowledgments or deeds, certifying that the
individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the
execution thereof. Whenever such execution is by an officer of a corporation
or a member of a partnership on behalf of such corporation or partnership,
such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his
authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or
writing, or the authority of the individual executing the same, may also be
proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

         (c) The ownership of Certificates (whether or not such Certificates
shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other
writing thereon made by anyone other than the Trustee) shall be proved by the
Certificate Register, and neither the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the
Guarantor, nor the Depositor shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

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

                                  ARTICLE IX

                ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS
                BY THE MASTER SERVICER; LOSS MITIGATION ADVISOR

         Section 9.01. Duties of the Master Servicer. The Certificateholders,
by their purchase and acceptance of the Certificates, appoint Norwest Bank
Minnesota, National Association, as Master Servicer. For and on behalf of the
Depositor, the Trustee, the Guarantor and the Certificateholders, the Master
Servicer shall master service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of each Servicing Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, any Servicing Agreement or any
Loss Mitigation Advisory Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall
have no duty or obligation to enforce any Loss Mitigation Advisory Agreement
or to supervise, monitor or oversee the activities of any Servicer under its
Loss Mitigation Advisory Agreement with respect to any action taken or not
taken by a Servicer at the direction of the Class X Certificateholder or
pursuant to a recommendation of the Loss Mitigation Advisor.

         Section 9.02. Master Servicer Fidelity Bond and Master Servicer
Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy. (a) The Master Servicer, at its
expense, shall maintain in effect a Master Servicer Fidelity Bond and a Master
Servicer Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy, affording coverage with
respect to all directors, officers, employees and other Persons acting on such
Master Servicer's behalf, and covering errors and omissions in the performance
of the Master Servicer's obligations hereunder. The Master Servicer Errors and
Omissions Insurance Policy and the Master Servicer Fidelity Bond shall be in
such form and amount that would be consistent with coverage customarily
maintained by master servicers of mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage
Loans. The Master Servicer shall (i) require each Servicer to maintain an
Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy and a Servicer Fidelity Bond in
accordance with the provisions of the applicable Servicing Agreement, (ii)
cause each Servicer to provide to the Master Servicer certificates evidencing
that such policy and bond is in effect and to furnish to the Master Servicer
any notice of cancellation, non-renewal or modification of the policy or bond
received by it, as and to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing
Agreement, and (iii) furnish copies of the certificates and notices referred
to in clause (ii) to the Trustee and the Guarantor upon request.

         (b) The Master Servicer shall promptly report to the Trustee any
material changes that may occur in the Master Servicer Fidelity Bond or the
Master Servicer Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy and shall furnish to the
Trustee and the Guarantor, on request, certificates evidencing that such bond
and insurance policy are in full force and effect. The Master Servicer shall
promptly report to the Trustee and the Guarantor all cases of embezzlement or
fraud, if such events involve funds relating to the Mortgage Loans. The total
losses, regardless of whether claims are filed with the applicable insurer or
surety, shall be disclosed in such reports together with the amount of such
losses covered by insurance. If a bond or insurance claim report is filed with
any of such bonding companies or insurers, the Master Servicer shall promptly
furnish a copy of such report to the Trustee and the Guarantor. Any amounts
relating to the Mortgage Loans collected by the Master Servicer under any such
bond or policy shall be promptly remitted by the Master Servicer to the
Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Account. Any amounts relating to the
Mortgage Loans collected by the applicable Servicer under any such bond or
policy shall be remitted to the Master Servicer to the extent provided in the
applicable Servicing Agreement.

         Section 9.03. Master Servicer's Financial Statements and Related
Information. For each year this Agreement is in effect, the Master Servicer
shall submit to the Trustee, each Rating Agency, the Guarantor and the
Depositor a copy of its annual unaudited financial statements on or prior to
May 31 of each year, beginning May 31, 2001. Such financial statements shall
include a balance sheet, income statement, statement of retained earnings,
statement of additional paid-in capital, statement of changes in financial
position and all related notes and schedules and shall be in comparative form,
certified by a nationally recognized firm of Independent Accountants to the
effect that such statements were examined and prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with
that of the preceding year.

         Section 9.04. Power to Act; Procedures. (a) The Master Servicer shall
master service the Mortgage Loans and shall have full power and authority,
subject to the REMIC Provisions and the provisions of Article X hereof, and
each Servicer shall have full power and authority (to the extent provided in
the applicable Servicing Agreement) to do any and all things that it may deem
necessary or desirable in connection with the servicing and administration of
the Mortgage Loans, including but not limited to the power and authority (i)
to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Trustee and
the Guarantor, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and
documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and
assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages, (iii) to collect any
Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate
foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property
securing any Mortgage Loan, in each case, in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement and the applicable Servicing Agreement, as applicable; provided
that the Master Servicer shall not take, or knowingly permit any Servicer to
take, any 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, the Trustee, the Certificateholders and the
Guarantor under this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall represent and
protect the interests of the Trust Fund in the same manner as it protects its
own interests in mortgage loans in its own portfolio in any claim, proceeding
or litigation regarding a Mortgage Loan and shall not make or knowingly permit
any Servicer to make any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any
Mortgage Loan that would cause any part of the Trust Fund to fail to qualify
as a REMIC or result in the imposition of any tax under Section 860F(a) or
Section 860G(d) of the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Master Servicer in its own name or in the name of a Servicer, and each
Servicer, to the extent such authority is delegated to such Servicer under the
applicable Servicing Agreement, is hereby authorized and empowered by the
Trustee when the Master Servicer or such Servicer, as the case may be,
believes it appropriate in its best judgment and in accordance with Accepted
Servicing Practices and the applicable Servicing Agreement, to execute and
deliver, on behalf of itself and the Certificateholders, the Trustee 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.
The Trustee shall furnish the Master Servicer, upon request, with any powers
of attorney empowering the Master Servicer or any Servicer to execute and
deliver instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full
release or discharge, and to foreclose upon or otherwise liquidate Mortgaged
Property, and to appeal, prosecute or defend in any court action relating to
the Mortgage Loans or the Mortgaged Property, in accordance with the
applicable Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, and the Trustee shall
execute and deliver such other documents, as the Master Servicer may request,
necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to master service and
administer the Mortgage Loans and carry out its duties hereunder, in each case
in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices (and the Trustee and the
Guarantor shall have no liability for misuse of any such powers of attorney by
the Master Servicer or any Servicer). If the Master Servicer or the Trustee
has been advised that it is likely that the laws of the state in which action
is to be taken prohibit such action if taken in the name of the Trustee or
that the Trustee would be adversely affected under the "doing business" or tax
laws of such state if such action is taken in its name, then upon request of
the Trustee and the Guarantor, the Master Servicer shall join with the Trustee
and the Guarantor in the appointment of a co-trustee pursuant to Section 6.09
hereof. In the performance of its duties hereunder, the Master Servicer shall
be an independent contractor and shall not, except in those instances where it
is taking action in the name of the Trustee, be deemed to be the agent of the
Trustee.

         (b) In master servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the
Master Servicer shall employ procedures, and shall cause each Servicer to
employ procedures (including, but not limited to, collection procedures),
consistent with the applicable Servicing Agreement. Consistent with the
foregoing, the Master Servicer may, and may permit any Servicer to, in its
discretion (i) waive any late payment charge (but not any Prepayment Premium)
and (ii) extend the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period
not greater than 120 days; provided, however, that the maturity of any
Mortgage Loan shall not be extended past the date on which the final payment
is due on the latest maturing Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-off Date. In the
event of any extension described in clause (ii) above, the Master Servicer
shall make or cause such Servicer (if required by the applicable Servicing
Agreement) to make Advances on the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with
the provisions of Section 5.05 on the basis of the amortization schedule of
such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such extension.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Master
Servicer shall not, unless default by the related Mortgagor is, in the
reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer, imminent, knowingly permit any
modification, waiver or amendment of any material term of any Mortgage Loan
(including but not limited to the interest rate, the principal balance, the
amortization schedule, or any other term affecting the amount or timing of
payments on the Mortgage Loan or the collateral therefor) unless the Master
Servicer shall have provided or (if required by the applicable Servicing
Agreement) caused to be provided to the Trustee and the Guarantor an Opinion
of Counsel (which opinion shall, if provided by the Master Servicer, be an
expense reimbursed from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 4.02(v)) in
writing to the effect that such modification, waiver or amendment would not
cause an Adverse REMIC Event.

         Section 9.05. Enforcement of Servicer's and Master Servicer's
Obligations. (a) Each Servicing Agreement requires the applicable Servicer,
respectively, to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions
thereof. References in this Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by the
Master Servicer include actions taken or to be taken by a Servicer on behalf
of the Master Servicer. Any fees and other amounts payable to a Servicer shall
be deducted from amounts remitted to the Master Servicer by such Servicer and
shall not be an obligation of the Trust or the Master Servicer.

         (b) The Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Servicer under the
related Servicing Agreement, and shall, subject to the prior approval of the
Guarantor, in the event that a Servicer fails to perform its obligations in
accordance therewith, terminate the rights and obligations of such Servicer
thereunder and either act as servicer of the related Mortgage Loans or cause
the other parties hereto to enter into a Servicing Agreement (and such parties
hereby agree to execute and deliver any such successor Servicing Agreement),
with a successor Servicer subject to the Guarantor's approval. Such
enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims,
termination of Servicing Agreements and the pursuit of other appropriate
remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such
time as the Master Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would
require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer
shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, and shall be
reimbursed therefor initially (i) from a general recovery resulting from such
enforcement only to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts
due in respect of the related Mortgage Loans, (ii) from a specific recovery of
costs, expenses or attorneys' fees against the party against whom such
enforcement is directed, and then, (iii) to the extent that such amounts are
insufficient to reimburse the Master Servicer for the costs of such
enforcement, from the Collection Account.

         Section 9.06. Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items. (a)
To the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, the Master
Servicer shall cause each Servicer to establish and maintain one or more
custodial accounts at a depository institution (which may be a depository
institution with which the Master Servicer or any Servicer establishes
accounts in the ordinary course of its servicing activities), the accounts of
which are insured to the maximum extent permitted by the FDIC (each, an
"Escrow Account") and to deposit therein any collections of amounts received
with respect to amounts due for taxes, assessments, water rates, standard
hazard insurance policy premiums, Payaheads, if applicable, or any comparable
items for the account of the Mortgagors. Withdrawals from any Escrow Account
may be made (to the extent amounts have been escrowed for such purpose) only
in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement. Each Servicer shall be
entitled to all investment income not required to be paid to Mortgagors on any
Escrow Account maintained by such Servicer. The Master Servicer shall make (or
cause to be made) to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement
advances to the extent necessary in order to effect timely payment of taxes,
water rates, assessments, Standard Hazard Insurance Policy premiums or
comparable items in connection with the related Mortgage Loan (to the extent
that the Mortgagor is required, but fails, to pay such items), provided that
it or the applicable Servicer has determined that the funds so advanced are
recoverable from escrow payments, reimbursement pursuant to Section 4.02 or
otherwise.

         (b) Costs incurred by the Master Servicer or by any Servicer in
effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on the properties
subject to the Mortgage Loans may be added to the amount owing under the
related Mortgage Note where the terms of the Mortgage Note so permit;
provided, however, that the addition of any such cost shall not be taken into
account for purposes of calculating the distributions to be made to
Certificateholders. Such costs, to the extent that they are unanticipated,
extraordinary costs, and not ordinary or routine costs shall be recoverable as
a Servicing Advance by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.02.

         Section 9.07. Termination of Servicing Agreements; Successor
Servicers. (a) The Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights
and obligations of any Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement in
accordance with the terms and conditions of such Servicing Agreement and
without any limitation by virtue of this Agreement; provided, however, that in
the event of termination of any Servicing Agreement by the Master Servicer,
the Master Servicer shall provide for the servicing of the Mortgage Loans by a
successor Servicer to be appointed as provided in the applicable Servicing
Agreement and acceptable to the Guarantor.

         In the event that the Master Servicer cannot terminate a Servicer for
a breach of such Servicer's obligation to make an Advance (each, a "Defaulted
Advance") without the consent of the Guarantor, then the Master Servicer
shall, in accordance with Section 5.05, make such Defaulted Advance, but the
Master Servicer shall have no obligation to make any subsequent Advance under
Section 5.05 with respect to such Servicer if the Guarantor shall have elected
not to approve the termination of the defaulting Servicer by the Master
Servicer or if the Guarantor does not exercise any right it may have to
terminate the defaulting Servicer as a consequence of such Event of Default or
if the Guarantor otherwise shall have waived such Event of Default.

         The Master Servicer agrees that it will use its best efforts to
effect the transfer of servicing to a successor Servicer within the first one
to two weeks after the termination of such Servicer in accordance with the
first paragraph of this Section 9.07(a). The parties acknowledge that
notwithstanding the preceding sentence, there may be a transition period, not
to exceed 60 days from the above-mentioned two-week period, in order to effect
the transfer of servicing to a successor Servicer. To the extent that the
costs and expenses of the Master Servicer related to any termination of the
Servicer, the appointment of a successor Servicer and the transfer of
servicing by the Master Servicer (including any assumption of servicing by the
Master Servicer) are not timely reimbursed by the Servicer, then the Master
Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of such costs and expenses from
the Collection Account.

         (b) If the Master Servicer acts as a successor Servicer, it will not
assume liability for the representations and warranties of the Servicer, if
any, that it replaces. The Master Servicer or the Guarantor shall use
reasonable efforts to have the successor Servicer assume liability for the
representations and warranties made by the terminated Servicer in the related
Servicing Agreement, and in the event of any such assumption by the successor
Servicer, the Trustee or the Master Servicer, as applicable, may, in the
exercise of its business judgment, release the terminated Servicer from
liability for such representations and warranties.

         (c) If the Master Servicer acts as a successor Servicer, it will have
no obligation to make an Advance if it determines in its reasonable judgment
that such Advance is non-recoverable. To the extent that the Master Servicer
is unable to find a successor Servicer that is willing to service the Mortgage
Loans for the Servicing Fee because of the obligation of the Servicer to make
Advances regardless of whether such Advance is recoverable, the applicable
Servicing Agreement may be amended to provide that the successor Servicer
shall have no obligation to make an Advance if it determines in its reasonable
judgment that such Advance is non-recoverable and provides an Officer's
Certificate to such effect.

         Section 9.08. Master Servicer Liable for Enforcement. Notwithstanding
any Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and liable
to the Trustee, the Certificateholders and the Guarantor in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement, to the extent of its obligations hereunder,
without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Servicing
Agreements. The Master Servicer shall ensure that the Mortgage Loans are
serviced in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and shall enforce
the provisions of each Servicing Agreement for the benefit of the
Certificateholders and the Guarantor. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to
enter into any agreement with any Servicer for indemnification of the Master
Servicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or
modify such indemnification.

         Section 9.09. No Contractual Relationship Between Any Servicer and
Trustee or Depositor. Any Servicing Agreement that may be entered into and any
other transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving any
Servicer in its capacity as such and not as an originator shall be deemed to
be between such Servicer, the Seller and the Master Servicer, and the Trustee
and the Depositor shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no
claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to such
Servicer except as set forth in Section 9.10 hereof.

         Section 9.10. Assumption of Servicing Agreement by Trustee. (a) In
the event the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Master
Servicer (including by reason of any Event of Default under this Agreement),
the Trustee shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of such
Master Servicer hereunder and under each Servicing Agreement entered into with
respect to the Mortgage Loans. The Trustee, its designee or any successor
master servicer appointed by the Trustee or the Guarantor shall be deemed to
have assumed all of the Master Servicer's interest herein and therein to the
same extent as if such Servicing Agreement had been assigned to the assuming
party, except that the Master Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any
liability or obligations of the Master Servicer under such Servicing Agreement
accruing prior to its replacement as Master Servicer, and shall be liable to
the Trustee, and hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee from
and against all costs, damages, expenses and liabilities (including reasonable
attorneys' fees) incurred by the Trustee as a result of such liability or
obligations of the Master Servicer and in connection with the Trustee's
assumption (but not its performance, except to the extent that costs or
liability of the Trustee are created or increased as a result of negligent or
wrongful acts or omissions of the Master Servicer prior to its replacement as
Master Servicer) of the Master Servicer's obligations, duties or
responsibilities thereunder.

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

         Section 9.11. "Due-on-Sale" Clauses; Assumption Agreements. To the
extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, to the extent Mortgage
Loans contain enforceable due-on-sale clauses, the Master Servicer shall cause
the related Servicer to enforce such clauses in accordance with the applicable
Servicing Agreement. If applicable law prohibits the enforcement of a
due-on-sale clause or such clause is otherwise not enforced in accordance with
the applicable Servicing Agreement, and, as a consequence, a Mortgage Loan is
assumed, the original Mortgagor may be released from liability in accordance
with the applicable Servicing Agreement.

         Section 9.12. Release of Mortgage Files. (a) Upon becoming aware of
the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Master
Servicer of a notification that payment in full has been escrowed in a manner
customary for such purposes for payment to Certificateholders on the next
Distribution Date, the Master Servicer will, or will cause the related
Servicer to, promptly notify the Trustee (or the applicable Custodian) by a
certification (which certification shall include a statement to the effect
that all amounts received in connection with such payment that are required to
be deposited in the Collection Account maintained by the Master Servicer
pursuant to Section 4.01 have been or will be so deposited) of a Servicing
Officer and shall request the Trustee or the applicable Custodian, to deliver
to the applicable Servicer the related Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such
certification and request, the Trustee or the applicable Custodian (with the
consent, and at the direction of the Trustee), shall promptly release the
related Mortgage File to the applicable Servicer and the Trustee shall have no
further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File. Upon any such
payment in full, the Master Servicer is authorized, and each Servicer, to the
extent such authority is delegated to such Servicer by the Master Servicer
under the applicable Servicing Agreement, is authorized, to give, as agent for
the Trustee, as the mortgagee under the Mortgage that secured the Mortgage
Loan, an instrument of satisfaction (or assignment of mortgage without
recourse) regarding the Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage, which
instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall be
delivered to the Person or Persons entitled thereto against receipt therefor
of such payment, it being understood and agreed that no expenses incurred in
connection with such instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may
be, shall be chargeable to the Collection Account.

         (b) From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and in accordance with Accepted Servicing
Practices and the applicable Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall execute
such documents as shall be prepared and furnished to the Trustee by the Master
Servicer, or by a Servicer (in form reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) and
as are necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings. The Trustee or
the applicable Custodian, shall, upon request of the Master Servicer, or of a
Servicer, and delivery to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian, of a trust
receipt signed by a Servicing Officer substantially in the form of Exhibit C,
release the related Mortgage File held in its possession or control to the
Master Servicer (or the applicable Servicer). Such trust receipt shall
obligate the Master Servicer or Servicer to return the Mortgage File to the
Trustee or the applicable Custodian, as applicable, when the need therefor by
the Master Servicer or Servicer no longer exists unless the Mortgage Loan
shall be liquidated, in which case, upon receipt of a certificate of a
Servicing Officer similar to that hereinabove specified, the trust receipt
shall be released by the Trustee or the applicable Custodian, as applicable,
to the Master Servicer (or the applicable Servicer).

         Section 9.13. Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of Master
Servicer To Be Held for Trustee. (a) The Master Servicer shall transmit, or
cause the applicable Servicer to transmit, to the Trustee such documents and
instruments coming into the possession of the Master Servicer or such Servicer
from time to time as are required by the terms hereof or of the applicable
Servicing Agreement to be delivered to the Trustee. Any funds received by the
Master Servicer or by a Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loan or which
otherwise are collected by the Master Servicer or a Servicer as Liquidation
Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage Loan shall be held
for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders subject to the
Master Servicer's right to retain or withdraw from the Collection Account the
Master Servicing Fee and other amounts provided in this Agreement and to the
right of each Servicer to retain its Servicing Fee and other amounts as
provided in the related Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall, and
shall (to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement) cause
each Servicer to, provide access to information and documentation regarding
the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee and the Guarantor, its agents and
accountants at any time upon reasonable request and during normal business
hours, and to Certificateholders that are savings and loan associations, banks
or insurance companies, the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC and the
supervisory agents and examiners of such Office and Corporation or examiners
of any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority if so
required by applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision or
other regulatory authority, such access to be afforded without charge but only
upon reasonable request in writing and during normal business hours at the
offices of the Master Servicer designated by it. In fulfilling such a request
the Master Servicer shall not be responsible for determining the sufficiency
of such information.

         (b) All Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the
control of, the Master Servicer, or any Servicer, in respect of any Mortgage
Loans, whether from the collection of principal and interest payments or from
Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds, shall be held by the Master
Servicer, or by any Servicer, for and on behalf of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of
the Trustee; provided, however, that the Master Servicer and each Servicer
shall be entitled to setoff against, and deduct from, any such funds any
amounts that are properly due and payable to the Master Servicer or such
Servicer under this Agreement or the applicable Servicing Agreement.

         (c) The Master Servicer hereby acknowledges that concurrently with
the execution of this Agreement, the Trustee shall own or, to the extent that
a court of competent jurisdiction shall deem the conveyance of the Mortgage
Loans from the Seller to the Depositor not to constitute a sale, the Trustee
shall have a security interest in the Mortgage Loans and in all Mortgage Files
representing such Mortgage Loans and in all funds now or hereafter held by, or
under the control of, a Servicer or the Master Servicer that are collected by
any Servicer or the Master Servicer in connection with the Mortgage Loans,
whether as scheduled installments of principal and interest or as full or
partial prepayments of principal or interest or as Liquidation Proceeds or
Insurance Proceeds or otherwise, and in all proceeds of the foregoing and
proceeds of proceeds (but excluding any fee or other amounts to which a
Servicer is entitled under the applicable Servicing Agreement, or the Master
Servicer or the Depositor is entitled to hereunder); and the Master Servicer
agrees that so long as the Mortgage Loans are assigned to and held by the
Trustee, all documents or instruments constituting part of the Mortgage Files,
and such funds relating to the Mortgage Loans which come into the possession
or custody of, or which are subject to the control of, the Master Servicer or
any Servicer shall be held by the Master Servicer or such Servicer for and on
behalf of the Trustee as the Trustee's agent and bailee for purposes of
perfecting the Trustee's security interest therein as provided by the
applicable Uniform Commercial Code or other laws.

         (d) The Master Servicer agrees that it shall not, and shall not
authorize any Servicer to, create, incur or subject any Mortgage Loans, or any
funds that are deposited in any Custodial Account, Escrow Account or the
Collection Account, or any funds that otherwise are or may become due or
payable to the Trustee, to any claim, lien, security interest, judgment, levy,
writ of attachment or other encumbrance, nor assert by legal action or
otherwise any claim or right of setoff against any Mortgage Loan or any funds
collected on, or in connection with, a Mortgage Loan.

         Section 9.14. Representations and Warranties of the Master Servicer.
(a) The Master Servicer hereby represents and warrants to the Depositor, the
Guarantor and the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, as of
the Closing Date that:

                  (i) it is validly existing and in good standing under the
         laws of the United States of America as a national banking
         association, and as Master Servicer has full power and authority to
         transact any and all business contemplated by this Agreement and to
         execute, deliver and comply with its obligations under the terms of
         this Agreement, the execution, delivery and performance of which have
         been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of
         the Master Servicer;

                  (ii) the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the
         Master Servicer and its performance and compliance with the terms of
         this Agreement will not (A) violate the Master Servicer's charter or
         bylaws, (B) violate any law or regulation or any administrative
         decree or order to which it is subject or (C) constitute a default
         (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would
         constitute a default) under, or result in the breach of, any material
         contract, agreement or other instrument to which the Master Servicer
         is a party or by which it is bound or to which any of its assets are
         subject, which violation, default or breach would materially and
         adversely affect the Master Servicer's ability to perform its
         obligations under this Agreement;

                  (iii) this Agreement constitutes, assuming due
         authorization, execution and delivery hereof by the other respective
         parties hereto, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Master
         Servicer, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms hereof,
         except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
         reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting the enforcement
         of creditors' rights in general, and by general equity principles
         (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding
         in equity or at law);

                  (iv) the Master Servicer is not in default with respect to
         any order or decree of any court or any order or regulation of any
         federal, state, municipal or governmental agency to the extent that
         any such default would materially and adversely affect its
         performance hereunder;

                  (v) the Master Servicer is not a party to or bound by any
         agreement or instrument or subject to any charter provision, bylaw or
         any other corporate restriction or any judgment, order, writ,
         injunction, decree, law or regulation that may materially and
         adversely affect its ability as Master Servicer to perform its
         obligations under this Agreement or that requires the consent of any
         third person to the execution of this Agreement or the performance by
         the Master Servicer of its obligations under this Agreement;

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

                  (vii) the Master Servicer, or an affiliate thereof the
         primary business of which is the servicing of conventional
         residential mortgage loans, is a FHLMC-approved seller/servicer;

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

                  (ix) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by
         this Agreement are in the ordinary course of business of the Master
         Servicer;

                  (x) the Master Servicer has obtained an Errors and Omissions
         Insurance Policy and a Fidelity Bond in accordance with Section 9.02
         each of which is in full force and effect, and each of which provides
         at least such coverage as is required hereunder; and

                  (xi) the information about the Master Servicer under the
         heading "The Master Servicer" in the Offering Documents relating to
         the Master Servicer does not include an untrue statement of a
         material fact and does not omit to state a material fact, with
         respect to the statements made, necessary in order to make the
         statements in light of the circumstances under which they were made
         not misleading.

         (b) It is understood and agreed that the representations and
warranties set forth in this Section 9.14 shall survive the execution and
delivery of this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall indemnify the Depositor,
the Guarantor and the Trustee and hold them harmless against any loss,
damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs,
judgments, and other costs and expenses resulting from any claim, demand,
defense or assertion based on or grounded upon, or resulting from, a breach of
the Master Servicer's representations and warranties contained in Section
9.14(a). It is understood and agreed that the enforcement of the obligation of
the Master Servicer set forth in this Section to indemnify the Depositor, the
Guarantor and the Trustee as provided in this Section constitutes the sole
remedy (other than as set forth in Section 6.14) of the Depositor and the
Trustee, respecting a breach of the foregoing representations and warranties.
Such indemnification shall survive any termination of the Master Servicer as
Master Servicer hereunder, and any termination of this Agreement.

         Any cause of action against the Master Servicer relating to or
arising out of the breach of any representations and warranties made in this
Section shall accrue upon discovery of such breach by either the Depositor,
the Guarantor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee or notice thereof by any one
of such parties to the other parties.

         (c) It is understood and agreed that the representations and
warranties of the Depositor set forth in Sections 2.03(i) through (vi) shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement. The Depositor shall
indemnify the Master Servicer and the Guarantor and hold each of them harmless
against any loss, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and
related costs, judgments, and other costs and expenses resulting from any
claim, demand, defense or assertion based on or grounded upon, or resulting
from, a breach of the Depositor's representations and warranties contained in
Sections 2.03(i) through (vi) hereof. It is understood and agreed that the
enforcement of the obligation of the Depositor set forth in this Section to
indemnify the Master Servicer as provided in this Section constitutes the sole
remedy of the Master Servicer respecting a breach by the Depositor of the
representations and warranties in Sections 2.03(i) through (vi) hereof.

         Any cause of action against the Depositor relating to or arising out
of the breach of the representations and warranties made in Sections 2.03(i)
through (vi) hereof shall accrue upon discovery of such breach by either the
Depositor, the Guarantor or the Master Servicer or notice thereof by any one
of such parties to the other parties.

         Section 9.15. Opinion. On or before the Closing Date, the Master
Servicer shall cause to be delivered to the Depositor, the Seller, the
Guarantor and the Trustee one or more Opinions of Counsel, dated the Closing
Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, Lehman
Brothers Inc. and the Guarantor, as to the due authorization, execution and
delivery of this Agreement by the Master Servicer and the enforceability
thereof.

         Section 9.16. Standard Hazard and Flood Insurance Policies. For each
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall maintain, or cause to be maintained
by each Servicer, standard fire and casualty insurance and, where applicable,
flood insurance, all in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and
the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable. It is understood and agreed
that such insurance shall be with insurers meeting the eligibility
requirements set forth in the applicable Servicing Agreement and that no
earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or
to be maintained on property acquired in respect of a defaulted loan, other
than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be
in force and as shall require such additional insurance.

         Pursuant to Section 4.01, any amounts collected by the Master
Servicer, or by any Servicer, under any insurance policies maintained pursuant
to this Section 9.16 or any Servicing Agreement (other than amounts to be
applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the related
Mortgage or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the applicable
Servicing Agreement) shall be deposited into the Collection Account, subject
to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.02. Any cost incurred by the Master
Servicer or any Servicer in maintaining any such insurance if the Mortgagor
defaults in its obligation to do so shall be added to the amount owing under
the Mortgage Loan where the terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit; provided,
however, that the addition of any such cost shall not be taken into account
for purposes of calculating the distributions to be made to Certificateholders
and shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer or such Servicer pursuant to
Section 4.02.

         Section 9.17. Presentment of Claims and Collection of Proceeds. The
Master Servicer shall cause each Servicer (to the extent provided in the
applicable Servicing Agreement) to, prepare and present on behalf of the
Trustee and the Certificateholders all claims under the Insurance Policies
with respect to the Mortgage Loans, 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 policies. Any proceeds
disbursed to the Master Servicer (or disbursed to a Servicer and remitted to
the Master Servicer) in respect of such policies or bonds shall be promptly
deposited in the Collection Account or the Custodial 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 requisite 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 9.18. Maintenance of the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies.
(a) The Master Servicer shall not take, or knowingly permit any Servicer
(consistent with the applicable Servicing Agreement) to take, any action that
would result in noncoverage under any applicable Primary Mortgage Insurance
Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of such Master Servicer or such
Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. The Master Servicer shall use
its best reasonable efforts to keep in force and effect, or to cause each
Servicer 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 in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable. The Master
Servicer shall not, and shall not knowingly permit any Servicer to, cancel or
refuse to renew any such Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy that is in effect
at the date of the initial issuance of the Certificates and is required to be
kept in force hereunder except in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable.

         (b) The Master Servicer agrees, to the extent provided in each
Servicing Agreement, to cause each Servicer to present, on behalf of the
Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policies and, in 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 or any Servicer under any
Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Collection
Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.02.

         Section 9.19. Trustee To Retain Possession of Certain Insurance
Policies and Documents. The Trustee shall retain possession and custody of the
originals of the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies or certificate of
insurance if applicable and any certificates of renewal as to the foregoing as
may be issued from time to time as contemplated by this Agreement. Until all
amounts distributable in respect of the Certificates have been distributed in
full and the Master Servicer otherwise has fulfilled its obligations under
this Agreement, the Trustee (or the applicable custodian as directed by the
Trustee) shall also retain possession and custody of each Mortgage File in
accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The
Master Servicer shall promptly deliver or cause each Servicer to deliver to
the Trustee (or the applicable Custodians, if any, as directed by the
Trustee), upon the execution or receipt thereof the originals of the Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policies and any certificates of renewal thereof, and such
other documents or instruments that constitute portions of the Mortgage File
that come into the possession of the Master Servicer or any Servicer from time
to time.

         Section 9.20.  [RESERVED]

         Section 9.21. Compensation to the Master Servicer. The Master
Servicer shall (i) be entitled, at its election, either (a) to pay itself the
Master Servicing Fee, as reduced pursuant to Section 5.06, in respect of the
Mortgage Loans out of any Mortgagor payment on account of interest prior to
the deposit of such payment in the Collection Account it maintains or (b) to
withdraw from the Collection Account, subject to Section 5.06, the Master
Servicing Fee to the extent permitted by Section 4.02. The Master Servicer
shall also be entitled, at its election, either (a) to pay itself the Master
Servicing Fee in respect of each delinquent Mortgage Loan master serviced by
it out of Liquidation Proceeds in respect of such Mortgage Loan or other
recoveries with respect thereto to the extent permitted in Section 4.02 or (b)
to withdraw from the Collection Account it maintains the Master Servicing Fee
in respect of each Liquidated Mortgage Loan to the extent of such Liquidation
Proceeds or other recoveries, to the extent permitted by Section 4.02.
Servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, if any, late payment
charges, as collected, if any, or otherwise (but not including any Prepayment
Premium) shall be retained by the Master Servicer (or the applicable Servicer)
and shall not be deposited in the Collection Account. If the Master Servicer
does not retain or withdraw the Master Servicing Fee from the Collection
Account as provided herein, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to direct
the Trustee to pay the Master Servicing Fee to such Master Servicer by
withdrawal from the Certificate Account to the extent that payments have been
received with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer
shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its
activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor
except as provided in this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 9.21 are
subject to the provisions of Section 6.14(b).

         Section 9.22. REO Property. (a) In the event the Trust Fund acquires
ownership of any REO Property in respect of any Mortgage Loan, the deed or
certificate of sale shall be issued to the Trustee, or to its nominee, on
behalf of the Certificateholders. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable
best efforts to sell, or cause the applicable Servicer, to the extent provided
in the applicable Servicing Agreement any REO Property as expeditiously as
possible and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the
related Servicing Agreement, as applicable, but in all events within the time
period, and subject to the conditions set forth in Article X hereof. Pursuant
to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall protect
and conserve, or cause the applicable Servicer to protect and conserve, such
REO Property in the manner and to such extent required by the applicable
Servicing Agreement, subject to Article X hereof.

         (b) The Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited all
funds collected and received by it, or recovered from any Servicer, in
connection with the operation of any REO Property in the Collection Account.

         (c) The Master Servicer and each Servicer, upon the final disposition
of any REO Property, shall be entitled to reimbursement for any related
unreimbursed Advances and other unreimbursed advances as well as any unpaid
Master Servicing Fees or Servicing Fees from Liquidation Proceeds received in
connection with the final disposition of such REO Property; provided, that any
such unreimbursed Advances as well as any unpaid Master Servicing Fees or
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.

         (d) The Liquidation Proceeds from the final disposition of the REO
Property, net of any payment to the Master Servicer and the applicable
Servicer as provided above, shall be deposited in the Collection Account on or
prior to the Determination Date in the month following receipt thereof (and
the Master Servicer shall provide prompt written notice to the Trustee upon
such deposit) and be remitted by wire transfer in immediately available funds
to the Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Account on the next succeeding
Deposit Date.

         Section 9.23. Preparation of Tax Returns and Other Reports. (a) The
Master Servicer shall prepare in accordance with the provisions of Article X
or cause to be prepared on behalf of the Trust Fund, based upon information
calculated in accordance with this Agreement pursuant to instructions given by
the Depositor, the Guarantor and the Trustee shall file, federal tax returns
and appropriate state income tax returns and such other returns as may be
required by applicable law relating to the Trust Fund, and the Trustee shall
forward copies to the Depositor and the Guarantor of all such returns and Form
1099 information and such other information within the control of the Trustee
as the Depositor or the Guarantor may reasonably request in writing, and shall
forward to each Certificateholder such forms and furnish such information
within the control of the Trustee as are required by the Code and the REMIC
Provisions to be furnished to them, and the Master Servicer or the Trustee
will prepare, to the extent that they are familiar with applicable state
requirements, and the Trustee will file, annual reports (other than tax
returns), if any, required by applicable state authorities, will file copies
of this Agreement with the appropriate state authorities as may be required by
applicable law, and will prepare and disseminate to Certificateholders Form
1099 (or otherwise furnish information within the control of the Trustee) to
the extent required by applicable law. The Master Servicer will indemnify the
Trust for any liability of or assessment against the Trust resulting from any
error in any of such tax or information returns resulting from errors in the
information provided by such Master Servicer (other than any such information
that is delivered solely from information provided by a Servicer).

         (b) 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
Master Servicer shall, in accordance with industry standards, file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") via the Electronic Data
Gathering and Retrieval System (EDGAR), a Form 8-K with a copy of the
statement to the Certificateholders for such Distribution Date as an exhibit
thereto. Prior to January 30, 2001, the Master Servicer shall, in accordance
with industry standards, file a Form 15 Suspension Notification with respect
to the Trust Fund, if applicable. Prior to March 31, 2001, the Master Servicer
shall file a Form 10-K, in substance conforming to industry standards, with
respect to the Trust Fund. The Depositor hereby grants to the Master Servicer
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 Master Servicer 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 Master Servicer from
time to time upon request such further information, reports, and financial
statements within the Depositor's control related to this Agreement and the
Mortgage Loans as the Master Servicer reasonably deems appropriate to prepare
and file all necessary reports with the SEC. The Master Servicer shall have no
responsibility to file any items other than those specified in this Section
9.23(b). Promptly after filing a Form 15 or other applicable form with the SEC
in connection with such termination, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the
Depositor a copy of such form together with copies of confirmations of receipt
by the SEC of each report filed therewith on behalf of the Trust Fund.

         Section 9.24. Reports to the Trustee. (a) Not later than 30 days
after each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall, upon request, forward
to the Trustee and the Guarantor a statement in a form acceptable to the
Guarantor, deemed to have been certified by a Servicing Officer, setting forth
the status of the Collection Account maintained by the Master Servicer as of
the close of business on the related Distribution Date, indicating that all
distributions required by this Agreement to be made by the Master Servicer
have been made (or if any required distribution has not been made by the
Master Servicer, specifying the nature and status thereof) and showing, for
the period covered by such statement, the aggregate of deposits into and
withdrawals from the Collection Account maintained by the Master Servicer.
Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Master Servicer, upon
request, to the Depositor, Attention: Contract Finance, and, to the Guarantor,
Attention: Securities Servicing, and any Certificateholders (or by the Trustee
at the Master Servicer's expense if the Master Servicer shall fail to provide
such copies to the Certificateholders (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)).

         (b) Not later than two Business Days following each Distribution
Date, the Master Servicer shall deliver to one Person designated by the
Depositor, in a format consistent with other electronic loan level reporting
supplied by the Master Servicer in connection with similar transactions, "loan
level" information with respect to the Mortgage Loans as of the related
Determination Date, to the extent that such information has been provided to
the Master Servicer by the Servicers or by the Depositor.

         Section 9.25. Annual Officer's Certificate as to Compliance. (a) The
Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee on or before May 31 of each year,
commencing on May 31, 2001, an Officer's Certificate, certifying that with
respect to the period ending on the immediately preceding December 31: (i)
such Servicing Officer has reviewed the activities of such Master Servicer
during the preceding calendar year or portion thereof and its performance
under this Agreement, (ii) to the best of such Servicing Officer's knowledge,
based on such review, such Master Servicer has performed and fulfilled its
duties, responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement in all material
respects throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the
fulfillment of any such duties, responsibilities or obligations, specifying
each such default known to such Servicing Officer and the nature and status
thereof, (iii) nothing has come to the attention of such Servicing Officer to
lead such Servicing Officer to believe that any Servicer has failed to perform
any of its duties, responsibilities and obligations under its Servicing
Agreement in all material respects throughout such year, or, if there has been
a material default in the performance or fulfillment of any such duties,
responsibilities or obligations, specifying each such default known to such
Servicing Officer and the nature and status thereof, and (iv) the Master
Servicer has received from each Servicer an annual certificate of compliance
and a copy of such Servicer's annual audit report, in each case to the extent
required under the applicable Servicing Agreement, or, if any such certificate
or report has not been received by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer is
using its best reasonable efforts to obtain such certificate or report .

         (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 9.26. Annual Independent Accountants' Servicing Report. If
the Master Servicer (or any of its Affiliates) has, during the course of any
fiscal year, directly serviced, as a successor Servicer, any of the Mortgage
Loans, then the Master Servicer at its expense shall cause a nationally
recognized firm of independent certified public accountants (acceptable to the
Guarantor) to furnish a statement to the Trustee, the Depositor and the
Guarantor on or before May 31 of each year, commencing on May 31, 2001 to the
effect that, with respect to the most recently ended fiscal year, such firm
has examined certain records and documents relating to the Master Servicer's
performance of its servicing obligations under this Agreement and pooling and
servicing and trust agreements in material respects similar to this Agreement
and to each other and that, on the basis of such examination conducted
substantially in compliance with the audit program for mortgages serviced for
FHLMC or the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers, such
firm is of the opinion that the Master Servicer's activities have been
conducted in compliance with this Agreement, or that such examination has
disclosed no material items of noncompliance except for (i) such exceptions as
such firm believes to be immaterial, (ii) such other exceptions as are set
forth in such statement and (iii) such exceptions that the Uniform Single
Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers or the Audit Program for Mortgages
Serviced by FHLMC requires it to report. Copies of such statements shall be
provided to the Guarantor and any Certificateholder upon request by the Master
Servicer, or by the Trustee at the expense of the Master Servicer if the
Master Servicer shall fail to provide such copies. If such report discloses
exceptions that are material, the Master Servicer shall advise the Trustee
whether such exceptions have been or are susceptible of cure, and will take
prompt action to do so.

         Section 9.27. Merger or Consolidation. Any Person into which the
Master Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any Person resulting from
any merger, conversion, other change in form or consolidation to which the
Master Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of
the Master Servicer, shall be the successor to the Master Servicer hereunder,
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding;
provided, however, that the successor or resulting Person to the Master
Servicer shall be a Person that shall be qualified and approved to service
mortgage loans for FHLMC and shall have a net worth of not less than
$15,000,000.

         Section 9.28. Resignation of Master Servicer. Except as otherwise
provided in Sections 9.27 and 9.29 hereof, the Master Servicer shall not
resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it unless it or the
Trustee determines that the Master Servicer's duties hereunder are no longer
permissible under applicable law or are in material conflict by reason of
applicable law with any other activities carried on by it and cannot be cured.
Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall
be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel that shall be Independent to such effect
delivered to the Trustee. No such resignation shall become effective until the
Trustee shall have assumed, or a successor master servicer shall have been
appointed by the Trustee (with the Guarantor's approval) and until such
successor shall have assumed, the Master Servicer's responsibilities and
obligations under this Agreement. Notice of such resignation shall be given
promptly by the Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Guarantor.

         Section 9.29. Assignment or Delegation of Duties by the Master
Servicer. Except as expressly provided herein, the Master Servicer shall not
assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to any
other Person, or delegate to or subcontract with, or authorize or appoint any
other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be
performed by the Master Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that the Master
Servicer shall have the right without the prior written consent of the
Trustee, the Depositor or the Guarantor to delegate or assign to or
subcontract with or authorize or appoint an Affiliate of the Master Servicer
to perform and carry out any duties, covenants or obligations to be performed
and carried out by the Master Servicer hereunder. In no case, however, shall
any such delegation, subcontracting or assignment to an Affiliate of the
Master Servicer relieve the Master Servicer of any liability hereunder. Notice
of such permitted assignment shall be given promptly by the Master Servicer to
the Depositor, the Guarantor and the Trustee. If, pursuant to any provision
hereof, the duties of the Master Servicer are transferred to a successor
master servicer, the entire amount of the Master Servicing Fees and other
compensation payable to the Master Servicer pursuant hereto, including amounts
payable to or permitted to be retained or withdrawn by the Master Servicer
pursuant to Section 9.21 hereof, shall thereafter be payable to such successor
master servicer.

         Section 9.30. Limitation on Liability of the Master Servicer and
Others. Neither the Master Servicer nor any of the directors, officers,
employees or agents of the Master Servicer shall be under any liability to the
Trustee, the Guarantor or the Certificateholders for any action taken or for
refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this
Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision
shall not protect the Master Servicer or any such person against any liability
that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
negligence in its performance of its duties or by reason of reckless disregard
for its obligations and duties under this Agreement. The Master Servicer and
any director, officer, employee or agent of the Master Servicer may rely in
good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and
submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Master
Servicer shall be under no obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any
legal action that is not incidental to its duties to master service the
Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and that in its opinion may
involve it in any expenses or liability; provided, however, that the Master
Servicer may in its sole discretion undertake any such action that it may deem
necessary or desirable in respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties
of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder.
In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability
resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Fund
and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of the
Collection Account it maintains as provided by Section 4.02.

         The Master Servicer shall not be liable for any acts or omissions of
any Servicer. In particular, the Master Servicer shall not be liable for any
course of action taken by the Servicers with respect to loss mitigation of
defaulted Mortgage Loans at the direction of the Loss Mitigation Advisor or
the Class X Certificateholder pursuant to any Loss Mitigation Advisory
Agreement.

         Section 9.31. Indemnification; Third-Party Claims. The Master
Servicer agrees to indemnify the Depositor, the Trustee and the Guarantor, and
hold them harmless against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs,
liability, fees and expenses that the Depositor, the Guarantor and the Trustee
may sustain as a result of the failure of the Master Servicer to perform its
duties and master service the Mortgage Loans in compliance with the terms of
this Agreement. The Depositor and the Trustee shall immediately notify the
Master Servicer if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this
Agreement or the Mortgage Loans entitling the Depositor or the Trustee to
indemnification hereunder, whereupon the Master Servicer shall assume the
defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith,
including counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment
or decree which may be entered against it or them in respect of such claim.

         Section 9.32. Alternative Index. In the event that the Index for any
Mortgage Loan, as specified in the related Mortgage Note, becomes unavailable
for any reason, the Master Servicer shall select an alternative index, which
in all cases shall be an index that constitutes a qualified rate on a regular
interest under the REMIC Provisions, in accordance with the terms of such
Mortgage Note or, if such Mortgage Note does not make provision for the
selection of an alternative index in such event, the Master Servicer shall,
subject to applicable law, select an alternative index based on information
comparable to that used in connection with the original Index and, in either
case, such alternative index shall thereafter be the Index for such Mortgage
Loan.

         Section 9.33. Master Servicer Audit and Declaration of Event of
Default. In the event that either (i) the credit rating assigned by any Rating
Agency to the Master Servicer's master servicing practices is downgraded to a
rating that in the reasonable judgment of the Guarantor merits an audit or
(ii) the net worth of the Master Servicer falls below $50,000,000, the
Guarantor, at its expense, during normal business hours or such other times as
the Master Servicer may agree, on the Master Servicer's premises, and upon
reasonable advance notice to the Master Servicer, with the assistance and
cooperation of a knowledgeable financial officer of the Master Servicer, shall
have the right to (i) review and audit the Master Servicer's master servicing
procedures as they relate to the Mortgage Loans and (ii) examine and audit the
related files, books, records and other information of the Master Servicer,
but solely as they relate to the Mortgage Loans and this Agreement. If, based
upon the result of the audit and inspection performed pursuant to this Section
9.33, the Guarantor, in its reasonable judgment, determines that the Master
Servicer's master servicing practices materially and adversely effect the
Certificateholders and Guarantor under this Agreement, the Guarantor may
declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 6.14(a)(ix) with all the
attendant consequences thereunder.

         Section 9.34.  Special Servicing of Delinquent Mortgage Loans.

         (a) If permitted under the terms of the applicable Servicing
Agreement, the Class X Certificateholder may appoint, pursuant to the terms of
the applicable Servicing Agreement and with the written consent of the
Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Guarantor, a
Special Servicer to special service any Mortgage Loans which are more than 90
days delinquent. Any applicable Termination Fee related to the termination of
the related Servicer and the appointment of any Special Servicer shall be paid
by the Class X Certificateholder. Except as provided under clause (b) below,
any fees paid to any such Special Servicer shall not exceed the Servicing Fee
Rate.

         (b) Under the related Servicing Agreement, in the event a Mortgage
Loan becomes greater than 150 days delinquent, Ocwen Federal Bank FSB shall be
entitled, in addition to its Servicing Fee, to a one time "special servicing"
fee equal to $1,500 for such Mortgage Loan which will be paid in installments
of $125 per month over a period of twelve months after amounts payable
pursuant to Section 5.02(e)(ix).

         Section 9.35. Duties of the Loss Mitigation Advisor. The
Certificateholders, by their purchase and acceptance of the Certificates,
appoint The Murrayhill Company as Loss Mitigation Advisor. For and on behalf
of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Guarantor and the Certificateholders, the
Loss Mitigation Advisor will provide reports and recommendations concerning
Mortgage Loans that are past due, as to which there has been commencement of
foreclosure, as to which there has been forbearance in exercise of remedies
which are in default, as to which any obligor is the subject of bankruptcy,
receivership, or an arrangement of creditors, or which have become REO
Properties. Such reports and recommendations will be based upon information
provided pursuant to Loss Mitigation Advisory Agreements to the Loss
Mitigation Advisor by the Servicers. The Loss Mitigation Advisor shall look
solely to the Servicers for all information and data (including loss and
delinquency information and data) and loan level information and data relating
to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and the Master Servicer shall have no
obligation to provide any such information to the Loss Mitigation Advisor.

         Section 9.36. Limitation Upon Liability of the Loss Mitigation
Advisor. Neither the Loss Mitigation Advisor, nor any of the directors,
officers, employees or agents of the Loss Mitigation Advisor, shall be under
any liability to the Trustee, the Guarantor, the Certificateholders or the
Depositor for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action
in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, in reliance upon information
provided by Servicers under the Loss Mitigation Advisory Agreements or for
errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect
the Loss Mitigation Advisor or any such person against liability that would
otherwise be imposed by reason of willful malfeasance, bad faith or gross
negligence in its performance of its duties or by reason of reckless disregard
for its obligations and duties under this Agreement or the Loss Mitigation
Advisory Agreements. The Loss Mitigation Advisor and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Loss Mitigation Advisor 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, and may rely in good faith upon the
accuracy of information furnished by the Servicers pursuant to the Loss
Mitigation Advisory Agreements in the performance of its duties thereunder and
hereunder.

                             REMIC ADMINISTRATION

         Section 10.01. REMIC Administration. (a) REMIC elections as set forth
in the Preliminary Statement shall be made by the Trustee on Forms 1066 or
other appropriate federal tax or information return for the taxable year
ending on the last day of the calendar year in which the Certificates are
issued. The regular interests and residual interest in each REMIC shall be as
designated in the Preliminary Statement.

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

         (c) The Trustee (after consultation with the Guarantor and
accommodating the Guarantor's reasonable requests) shall represent the Trust
Fund in any administrative or judicial proceeding relating to an examination
or audit by any governmental taxing authority with respect thereto. The Master
Servicer shall pay any and all tax related expenses (not including taxes) of
each REMIC, including but not limited to any professional fees or expenses
related to audits or any administrative or judicial proceedings with respect
to such REMIC that involve the Internal Revenue Service or state tax
authorities, but only to the extent that (i) such expenses are ordinary or
routine expenses, including expenses of a routine audit but not expenses of
litigation (except as described in (ii)); or (ii) such expenses or liabilities
(including taxes and penalties) are attributable to the negligence or willful
misconduct of the Master Servicer in fulfilling its duties hereunder
(including its duties as tax return preparer). The Master Servicer shall be
entitled to reimbursement of expenses to the extent provided in clause (i)
above from the Collection Account.

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

         (e) The Master Servicer or its designee shall perform on behalf of
each REMIC all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the
responsibility of such REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions, or other
compliance guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or
local taxing authority. Among its other duties, if required by the Code, the
REMIC Provisions, or other such guidance, the Master Servicer shall provide
(i) to the Treasury or other governmental authority such information as is
necessary for the application of any tax relating to the transfer of a
Residual Certificate to any disqualified person or organization pursuant to
Treasury Regulation 1.860E-(2)(a)(5) and any person designated in Section
860E(e)(3) of the Code and (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or
reports as are required by the Code or REMIC Provisions.

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

         (g) Each Holder of a Residual Certificate shall pay when due any and
all taxes imposed on the related REMIC by federal or state governmental
authorities. To the extent that such Trust taxes are not paid by a Residual
Certificateholder, the Trustee shall pay any remaining REMIC taxes out of
current or future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holder of the
Residual Certificate in any such REMIC or, if no such amounts are available,
out of other amounts held in the Collection Account, and shall reduce amounts
otherwise payable to holders of regular interests in any such REMIC, as the
case may be.

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

         (i) No additional contributions of assets shall be made to any REMIC,
except as expressly provided in this Agreement with respect to eligible
substitute mortgage loans.

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

         (k) On or before April 15 of each calendar year beginning in 2001,
the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and the Guarantor an
Officer's Certificate stating, without regard to any actions taken by any
party other than the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer's compliance with
the provisions of this Section 10.01.
         (l) The Trustee shall treat the Basis Risk Reserve Fund as an outside
reserve fund within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h)
that is owned by the Holder of the Class X Certificate and that is not an
asset of the REMIC. The Trustee shall treat the rights of the Class A1, Class
A2, Class M1, Class M2 and Class B Certificateholders to receive payments from
any Basis Risk Reserve Fund in the event of a Basis Risk Shortfall as rights
in an interest rate cap contract written by the Class X Certificateholder in
favor of the Class A1, Class A2, Class M1, Class M2 and Class B
Certificateholders. Thus, each Class A1, Class A2, Class M1, Class M2 and
Class B Certificate shall be treated as representing not only ownership of
regular interests in REMIC 2, but also ownership of an interest in an interest
rate cap contract.

         Section 10.02. Prohibited Transactions and Activities. Neither the
Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall sell, dispose of, or
substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans, except in a disposition pursuant to
(i) the foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, (ii) the bankruptcy of the Trust Fund,
(iii) the termination of each REMIC pursuant to Article VII of this Agreement,
(iv) a substitution pursuant to Article II of this Agreement or (v) a
repurchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II of this Agreement, nor
acquire any assets for any REMIC, nor sell or dispose of any investments in
the Certificate Account for gain, nor accept any contributions to any REMIC
after the Closing Date, unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel (at the
expense of the party causing such sale, disposition, or substitution) that
such disposition, acquisition, substitution, or acceptance will not (a) affect
adversely the status of any such REMIC as a REMIC or of the interests therein
other than the Residual Certificates as the regular interests therein, (b)
affect the distribution of interest or principal on the Certificates, (c)
result in the encumbrance of the assets transferred or assigned to the Trust
Fund (except pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement) or (d) cause any
such REMIC to be subject to any tax including a tax on prohibited transactions
or prohibited contributions pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.

         Section 10.03. Indemnification with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss
of REMIC Status. (a) In the event that any REMIC fails to qualify as a REMIC,
loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a
result of a prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution under the REMIC
Provisions due to the negligent performance by the Master Servicer of its
duties and obligations set forth herein, the Master Servicer shall indemnify
the Holder of the related Residual Certificate or the Trust Fund, as
applicable, against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses ("Losses") resulting from such negligence; provided, however, that
the Master Servicer shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to
the action or inaction of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Class X
Certificateholder or the Holder of such Residual Certificate, as applicable,
nor for any such Losses resulting from misinformation provided by the Holder
of such Residual Certificate on which the Master Servicer has relied. The
foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights and remedies of
the Holder of such Residual Certificate now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no event shall the Master
Servicer have any liability (1) for any action or omission that is taken in
accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or which is
expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement or the any Servicing
Agreement, (2) for any Losses other than arising out of a negligent
performance by the Master Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth
herein, and (3) for any special or consequential damages to Certificateholders
(in addition to payment of principal and interest on the Certificates).

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

         (c) If the Internal Revenue Service determines that one of the REMICs
established hereunder recognized income from a prohibited transaction within
the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code as a result of the lapse of the
Class X Certificateholder's right to effect a Special Termination of the Trust
Fund by purchasing the assets of the Trust Fund, then the Seller shall
indemnify the Trust Fund for any such tax and any tax imposed upon such
indemnification.

         (d) In the event that any of the REMICs incur a state or local tax as
a result of a determination that any of the REMICs are domiciled in the State
of California for state tax purposes by virtue of the location of any
Servicer, the Seller agrees to pay on behalf of the Trust Fund when due any
and all state and local taxes imposed as a result of such determination. In
the event that any of the REMICs incur a state or local tax as a result of a
determination that any of the REMICs are domiciled in the State of Minnesota
for state tax purposes by virtue of the location of the Master Servicer, the
Seller agrees to pay on behalf of the Trust Fund when due any and all state
and local taxes imposed as a result of such determination.

         Section 10.04. REO Property. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Agreement, the Master Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee
hereunder, shall not, and shall, to the extent provided in the applicable
Servicing Agreement, not knowingly permit any Servicer to, rent, lease, or
otherwise earn income on behalf of any REMIC with respect to any REO Property
which might cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure"
property within the meaning of section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the
receipt by any REMIC of any "income from non-permitted assets" within the
meaning of section 860F(a)(2) of the Code or any "net income from foreclosure
property" which is subject to tax under the REMIC Provisions unless the Master
Servicer has advised, or has caused the applicable Servicer to advise, the
Trustee in writing to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions, such action
would not adversely affect the status of any REMIC as a REMIC and any income
generated for any REMIC by the REO Property would not result in the imposition
of a tax upon such REMIC.

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

                                  ARTICLE XI

                           MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

         Section 11.01. Binding Nature of Agreement; Assignment. This
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto
and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

         Section 11.02. Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire
agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the
subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous
agreements, understandings, inducements and conditions, express or implied,
oral or written, of any nature whatsoever with respect to the subject matter
hereof. The express terms hereof control and supersede any course of
performance and/or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms
hereof.

         Section 11.03. Amendment. (a) This Agreement may be amended from time
to time by the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Loss Mitigation
Advisor, the Trustee and the Guarantor, without notice to or the consent of
any of the Holders, (i) to cure any ambiguity, (ii) to cause the provisions
herein to conform to or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements
made with respect to the Certificates, the Trust Fund or this Agreement in any
Offering Document, or to correct or supplement any provision herein which may
be inconsistent with any other provisions herein or with the provisions of any
Servicing Agreement, (iii) to make any other provisions with respect to
matters or questions arising under this Agreement or (iv) to add, delete, or
amend any provisions to the extent necessary or desirable to comply with any
requirements imposed by the Code and the REMIC Provisions. No such amendment
effected pursuant to the preceding sentence shall, as evidenced by an Opinion
of Counsel, adversely affect the status of any REMIC created pursuant to this
Agreement, nor shall such amendment effected pursuant to clause (iii) of such
sentence adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Holder.
In addition, any amendment to this Agreement which affects any Custodial
Agreement must be consented to in writing by the applicable Custodian. Prior
to entering into any amendment without the consent of Holders pursuant to this
paragraph, the Trustee may require an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of
the party requesting such amendment) to the effect that such amendment is
permitted under this paragraph. Any such amendment shall be deemed not to
adversely affect in any material respect any Holder, if the Trustee receives
written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such amendment will not
cause such Rating Agency to reduce the then current rating assigned to the
Certificates.

         (b) This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the
Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Loss Mitigation Advisor, the
Trustee and the Guarantor with the consent of the Holders of not less than
66-2/3% of the Class Principal Amount (or Percentage Interest) of each Class
of Certificates affected thereby for the purpose of adding any provisions to
or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this
Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders; provided,
however, that no such amendment shall be made unless the Trustee receives an
Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of the party requesting the change, that
such change will not adversely affect the status of any REMIC as a REMIC or
cause a tax to be imposed on such REMIC; and provided further, that no such
amendment may (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of,
payments received on Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed on
any Certificate, without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate or (ii)
reduce the aforesaid percentages of Class Principal Amount (or Percentage
Interest) of Certificates of each Class, the Holders of which are required to
consent to any such amendment without the consent of the Holders of 100% of
the Class Principal Amount (or Percentage Interest) of each Class of
Certificates affected thereby. For purposes of this paragraph, references to
"Holder" or "Holders" shall be deemed to include, in the case of any Class of
Book-Entry Certificates, the related Certificate Owners.

         (c) Promptly after the execution of any such amendment, the Trustee
shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment to each
Holder, the Depositor, the Rating Agencies and to the Guarantor.

         (d) It shall not be necessary for the consent of Holders under this
Section 11.03 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 Holders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations
as the Trustee may prescribe.

         (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Servicing
Agreement, the Trustee shall not consent to any amendment of any Servicing
Agreement except pursuant to the standards provided in this Section with
respect to amendment of this Agreement.

         Section 11.04. Voting Rights. Except to the extent that the consent
of all affected Certificateholders is required pursuant to this Agreement,
with respect to any provision of this Agreement requiring the consent of
Certificateholders representing specified percentages of aggregate outstanding
Certificate Principal Amount (or Percentage Interest), Certificates owned by
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, any Servicer, MGIC, the Loss
Mitigation Advisor or Affiliates thereof are not to be counted so long as such
Certificates are owned by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, any
Servicer, MGIC, the Loss Mitigation Advisor or any Affiliate thereof.

         Section 11.05. Provision of Information. (a) For so long as any of
the Certificates of any Series or Class are "restricted securities" within the
meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Act, each of the Depositor, Master
Servicer and the Trustee agree to cooperate with each other to provide to any
Certificateholders and to any prospective purchaser of Certificates designated
by such Certificateholder, upon the request of such Certificateholder or
prospective purchaser, any information required to be provided to such holder
or prospective purchaser to satisfy the condition set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4)
under the Act. Any reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Trustee
in providing such information shall be reimbursed by the Depositor.

         (b) The Master Servicer will provide to any person to whom a
Prospectus was delivered, upon the request of such person specifying the
document or documents requested, a copy (excluding exhibits) of any report on
Form 8-K or Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission

the Master Servicer in providing copies of such documents shall be reimbursed
by the Depositor.

         and the Guarantor, whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld;

                  (iii) Such successor servicer must execute and deliver to
         the Trustee and the Master Servicer an agreement, in form and
         substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Master
         Servicer, that contains an assumption by such successor servicer of
         the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and
         condition to be performed and observed by such Servicer under the
         applicable Servicing Agreement;

                  (iv) There must be delivered to the Trustee and the
         Guarantor a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such

                  (v) The Class X Certificateholder shall, at its own cost and
         expense, take such steps, or cause the terminated Servicer to take

         each obligor under a Mortgage Loan any required notices or
         disclosures describing the transfer of servicing of the Mortgage
         Loans to the successor servicer; (B) prior to the effective date of
         such transfer of servicing, the Class X Certificateholder shall cause
         the prior Servicer to transmit to any related insurer notification of

         such transfer of servicing, the Class X Certificateholder shall cause
         the prior Servicer to deliver to the successor servicer all Mortgage
         Loan Documents and any related records or materials; (D) on or prior
         to the effective date of such transfer of servicing, the Class X
         Certificateholder shall cause the prior Servicer to transfer to the
         successor servicer, or, if such transfer occurs after a Remittance
         Date but before the next succeeding Deposit Date, to the Master

         any payments or other recoveries received by the prior Servicer, and
         to notify the successor servicer of the source and proper application
         of each such payment or recovery; and (F) the Class X
         Certificateholder shall cause the prior Servicer to, after the
         effective date of transfer of servicing to the successor servicer,
         continue to cooperate with the successor servicer to facilitate such
         transfer in such manner and to such extent as the successor servicer
         may reasonably request.

         6.       That the Purchaser does not hold REMIC residual securities

                  paragraph 3, paragraph 6 or paragraph 10 hereof are not
                  satisfied or that the Purchaser has reason to believe does
                  not satisfy the requirements set forth in paragraph 7
                  hereof, and (ii) without obtaining from the prospective
                  Purchaser an affidavit substantially in this form and

                  Non-U.S. Person that holds a Residual Certificate in
                  connection with the conduct of a trade or business within
                  the United States and has furnished the transferor and the
                  Trustee with an effective Internal Revenue Service Form 4224
                  or successor form at the time and in the manner required by
                  the Code or (iii) is a Non-U.S. Person that has delivered to
                  both the transferor and the Trustee an opinion of a
                  nationally recognized tax counsel to the effect that the
                  transfer of such Residual Certificate to it is in accordance
                  with the requirements of the Code and the regulations
                  promulgated thereunder and that such transfer of a Residual

                  of the United States or of any state thereof, including, for
                  this purpose, the District of Columbia; (iii) a partnership
                  (or entity treated as a partnership for tax purposes)

                  United States or of any state thereof, including, for this
                  purpose, the District of Columbia (unless provided otherwise
                  by future Treasury regulations); (iv) an estate whose income
                  is includible in gross income for United States income tax
                  purposes regardless of its source; or (v) a trust, if a
                  court within the United States is able to exercise primary
                  supervision over the administration of the trust and one or
                  more U.S. Persons have authority to control all substantial
                  decisions of the trust. Notwithstanding the last clause of
                  the preceding sentence, to the extent provided in Treasury
                  regulations, certain trusts in existence on August 20, 1996,
                  and treated as U.S. Persons prior to such date, may elect to
                  continue to be U.S. Persons.

                  Agreement as may be required to further effectuate the
                  restrictions on transfer of any Residual Certificate to such
                  a "disqualified organization," an agent thereof, a
                  Book-Entry Nominee, or a person that does not satisfy the
                  requirements of paragraph 7 and paragraph 10 hereof.

         12.      That the Purchaser consents to the designation of the Master
                  Servicer as its agent to act as "tax matters person" of the
                  Trust Fund pursuant to the Trust Agreement.

         13.      The Purchaser has provided financial statements or other
                  financial information requested by the Transferor in
                  connection with the transfer of the Class R Certificates to
                  permit the Transferor to assess the financial capability of
                  the Purchaser to pay such taxes.

         Investor, we will be required to furnish to the Trustee and the
         Depositor a certification from such transferee in the form hereof to

         such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to
         be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of our investment in

         we are acting are each able to bear the economic risk of such
         investment.

         for one or more accounts (each of which is an Institutional
         Accredited Investor) as to each of which we exercise sole investment

         make our investment decision.

ADJUSTMENT          6. Landlord's total cost of operating the Building  for
OF RENT             the  Base  Year  shall   be   assigned  a  value  equal
                    to  the Building's total cost of operation, hereinafter
                    defined  as  Provision  7  of  this  Lease.   Base year
                    shall  be  defined  as  the full calendar year in which
                    commencement  date   of   this  Lease occurs.   In  the
                    event Landlord's  costs of operating  the  Building for
                    the first full calendar  year  after  the Base Year, or
                    any subsequent calendar  year, shall exceed  Landlord's
                    cost  of  operating  the  Building  for  the Base Year,
                    Tenant  shall  pay to Landlord  as  additional rent for
                    such succeeding calendar  year after the  Base Year, or
                    such  subsequent  calendar  year,  as  the case may be,
                    Tenant's proportionate  share  in  the increase of such
                    operating costs.

                    The proportionate  share  to  be paid by  Tenant is the
                    percentage which the rentable square feet of its Leased
                    Premises  bears  to  the  total  rentable  square  feet
                    contained in the Building,  which is hereby defined  as
                    128,687 square feet, of which  the  Leased Premises are
                    a part.

                    For  each  calendar year during the term  of  the Lease
                    subsequent to  the  Base  Year,  Landlord shall provide
                    Tenant  a  comparison  of the Base Year   costs and the
                    projected  costs  for  the  current  year  on  or about
                    January 15 of such  current year.  If the current costs
                    are projected to be greater than the Base  Year  costs,
                    Tenant   shall  pay  as  additional  rent  each  month,

                         unreasonably withheld.  In no event shall any such
                         Assignment  or  Sublease  ever release Tenant from
                         any  obligation  hereunder.   In  the event Tenant

                         desires to   make  such  Assignment  or  Sublease;
                         Landlord  shall then have a period of fifteen (15)
                         days following receipt of such notice,  with which
                         to   notify   Tenant  of  Landlord's  approval  or
                         disapproval   of   such   proposal.   In the event

                         within such fifteen (15) day period, Landlord will
                         be deemed to have approved same.  In the event  of
                         such  Sublease  or  Assignment,  Sub-Tenant's   or
                         Assignee's  business  shall be in accordance  with
                         the  use set forth in this Lease, and shall assume
                         all of the obligations of this Lease.  A duplicate
                         original of said Sub-Lease or Assignment (and  any
                         amendments thereto) shall be delivered to Landlord
                         with five (5) days of its execution.  In the event
                         of any such Sub-Lease  or Assignment, any increase
                         in the base rentals paid by Sub-Tenant or Assignee
                         in excess of that paid by Tenant to Landlord shall
                         be shared equally between Tenant and Landlord, and
                         Landlord's share shall  be considered as rents due
                         under its primary Lease.

                    shall   pay   and   satisfy   any  deficiency   between

                    thereto,  shall pay all reasonable expenses incurred in
                    connection with any such reletting, including,  but not

                    their reasonable  cost  of  renovating,  altering   and

                    for  repairs required because of removal of all or  any
                    such abandoned property.

OVER                expiration or termination  of  this Lease  without  the
                    written consent of Landlord, at the option of Landlord,
                    Tenant shall pay as liquidated damages  an amount equal
                    to  double  the  sum  of  the  Base  Rental  plus   any
                    adjustments   provided   for  herein,  for  the  entire
                    holdover period.  No holding  over  by Tenant after the
                    term of this Lease shall operate to extend  the  Lease;
                    in  the  event of any holding over, without the written
                    consent of  Landlord,  Tenant  shall indemnify Landlord

                    reconduct this lease from month-to-month.

FIRE ON             18.  In the event  of  a  fire on  the Premises, Tenant

                    its agents, employees, invitees  or  visitors, shall be
                    partially destroyed by fire or other casualty  so as to
                    render  the  Premises  untenantable,  the rental herein
                    shall abate thereafter until such time as the partially
                    destroyed Premises are made tenantable by Landlord.  In
                    the  event  of  the  total destruction of the  Premises

                    employees, invitees or visitors,  or if from such cause
                    the same shall be so damaged that Landlord shall decide
                    not  to  rebuild, then  all  rent, rent  adjustments or
                    any  other   sums   owed   up   to  the  time  of  such
                    destruction or termination  shall be paid by Tenant and

                                        11

                    thenceforth   this   Lease shall cease and  come  to an
                    end,  without  any  residual  obligation on the part of
                    either  Landlord or Tenant.  Landlord shall act in good
                    faith to  make  a speedy determination as to whether or
                    not to rebuild.

                    any of the terms, covenants,  agreements  or conditions

                    this Lease shall authorize Landlord,  at its option, at
                    any  time such default has continued for  a  period  of
                    twenty (20) days after being put on notice by Landlord,
                    and without  any  other additional or subsequent notice
                    to Tenant, to declare  this  Lease terminated; and upon
                    declaring  any one or more of such  defaults,  Landlord
                    immediately,  or  at  any time thereafter, may re-enter
                    said Premises and remove  all persons therefrom with or
                    without legal process, and  without prejudice to any of
                    its other legal rights, and all  claims  for damages by
                    reason  of  such re-entry and expressly waived, as also
                    are  claims  for  damages  by  reason  of  any eviction
                    proceedings  or  proceedings by  way  of  sequestration
                    or  other legal  proceeding  which  Landlord may employ
                    to recover said rents or possession of said Premises.

NON-WAIVER          23.   Failure  of  Landlord  to  declare  any   default
                    immediately   upon   occurrence   thereof,   or   delay
                    in   taking   any    action  in  connection  therewith,
                    shall   not    waive   such   default,   but   Landlord
                    shall  have   the    right    to    declare   any  such
                    default   at   any   time   and take  such   action  as

                                        12
<PAGE>
                    might  be  lawful or authorized  hereunder,  either  in
                    law or in equity.  No  custom or practice  followed  in
                    connection with this Lease shall constitute a waiver of
                    Tenant's obligations under this  Lease.  Time is of the
                    essence  with  respect  to  the  performance  of  every
                    obligation of Tenant under this Lease in which  time of
                    performance is a factor.

INDEMNITY           24.    Tenant   shall   indemnify   and  hold Landlord,
                    its  agents, servants and  employees harmless  from and
                    against   any   and   all   claims,   damages,  losses,
                    expenses and any other costs (including but not limited
                    to attorney's fees) resulting  from  or  arising out of
                    any  and  all  injuries  to  or death of any person  or
                    damage to any property or other loss caused in whole or
                    in part by any act, omission,  negligence or neglect of
                    Tenant   or   Tenant's  officers,  directors,   agents,
                    employees,  invitees   or   visitors,  or  any  parties
                    contracting with Tenant relating  to  the  Premises, or
                    relating in any way to the presence on the premises  of
                    any machinery, equipment, or other property which is in
                    the  care,  custody, or control of any of the aforesaid
                    parties, whether  or  not  said damage or injury is the
                    result  of  any  vice  or  defect  in  said  machinery,
                    equipment or property.

                    Tenant, at its sole expense, is required  to  carry and
                    maintain, at all  times  during  physical occupancy and
                    the  terms  of  this  Lease,  general  public liability
                    insurance  against  claims  for bodily injury and death
                    occurring in, on, or about the Premises or the Building
                    with   limitations  of  not  less  than   $1,000,000.00
                    for any one  person  injured  in  any one accident, and
                    not  less  than $1,000,000.00 for more than  one person
                    injured   in   any  one  accident  and  not  less  than
                    $1,000,000.00   for   property   damage   per  accident
                    covering  any  accidents  for  which  Tenant is legally
                    liable with a responsible insurance company,  qualified
                    to  do  business  in  the  State of Louisiana; copy  of
                    certificates  of  insurance,  naming   Landlord  as  an
                    additional  insured, to be furnished to Landlord  prior
                    to physical occupancy.

SUBORDINATION       25.  At  the  option   of   the  Landlord or Landlord's
                    mortgagee, Tenant agrees  to  subordinate this Lease to
                    any  mortgage or encumbrance which  Landlord  may  have
                    placed,  or  may  hereafter  place,  on the Premises or
                    Building.   Tenant  agrees to execute, on  demand,  any
                    instrument which may  be  deemed necessary or desirable
                    to render such mortgage or  encumbrance,  whichever  is
                    made, superior and prior to this Lease.

                                        13
<PAGE>
                    At  Landlord's request, Tenant  will  also  execute  an
                    estoppel    certificate    or   three-party   agreement
                    certifying  to  such  facts and agreeing to such notice
                    provisions  in  other  matters  as  may  be  reasonably
                    required.

BANKRUPTCY          26.  If voluntary bankruptcy proceedings are instituted
BY TENANT           by Tenant, or if Tenant is  adjudged  a bankrupt, or if
                    Tenant  makes  an  assignment  for the benefit  of  its
                    creditors, or if a writ of execution  is issued against
                    it,  or if the interest of Tenant hereunder  passes  by
                    operation  of law to any person other than Tenant or if
                    any  other voluntary  or  involuntary  proceedings  are
                    instituted by or against Tenant under any bankruptcy or
                    similar   laws,  unless  the  occurrence  of  any  such
                    involuntary  receivership or proceeding is cured by the
                    same being dismissed  or  stayed within sixty (60) days
                    thereafter, or the failure  of  Tenant to discharge any
                    judgment against Tenant within sixty  (60)  days  after
                    such  judgment  becomes  definitive, this Lease may, at
                    the option of the Landlord,  be  terminated  by  notice
                    mailed by registered or certified mail and addressed to
                    Tenant.

HAZARD              27.   Landlord  shall  not  be obligated  to insure any
INSURANCE           furniture,  equipment,  machinery  goods,  supplies  or
                    other  property  which  Tenant  may  bring  or   obtain
                    upon the Premises, or any additional improvements which
                    Tenant may  construct thereon.   If the annual premiums
                    charged  Landlord  exceed  the standard  premium  rates
                    because of the nature of Tenant's  operation results in
                    additional exposure, then Tenant shall, upon receipt of
                    appropriate premium  invoices,  reimburse  Landlord for
                    such  increases  in  such  Premiums as additional  rent
                    hereunder.  Likewise, if any  improvements  are made by
                    Tenant  in  the  Premises  in  excess  of  the building
                    standard improvements (a) an increase in the AD VALOREM
                    taxes  assessed  against  the  Building  by  any taxing
                    authority,  or (b) an increase in the Premiums  on  the
                    insurance carried  by  Landlord on the Building, Tenant
                    will pay any such increase  in  taxes  or  premiums  to
                    Landlord  as  additional  rent  within thirty (30) days
                    after receipt of Landlord's invoice therefore.

WAIVER OF           28.  Anything   in   this   Lease   to   the   contrary
LIABILITY           notwithstanding,  to   the  extent  that  a  Waiver  of
                    Subrogation Clause is obtainable under their respective

                         f)  The  fact  that  this  Lease  may   have  been
                         prepared  by  either  Landlord or  Tenant,  or  by
                         the  attorneys for either party, shall not justify
                         the  resolving  of  whatever, if  any, doubt there
                         may be against said party.

                         of  such  prohibition  without   invalidating  the

                         h)  Paragraph   headings  in  this  Lease  are for

                         part  of  this  Lease  or  in  any  way  defining,
                         limiting  or simplifying the provisions thereof.

                         i)   Landlord  shall  have the  option at  anytime
                         during the  term of this lease,  and any extension

---------------------

The  following  rules and regulations, subject to change from time to time,
hereby accepted by  Tenant,  are prescribed by Landlord in order to provide
and  maintain,  to  the best of Landlord's  ability,  orderly,  clean,  and
desirable premises and building for the tenants therein, to assure security
for the protection of  tenants,  so  far  as  reasonably  possible,  and to
regulate  conduct in the use of premises and building in such manner as  to
minimize interference by others in the proper use of premises by Tenant:

     1. Tenant,  its  agents,  servants,  and  employees shall not block or
     obstruct  any  of  the entries, passages, doors,  elevators,  elevator
     doors, hallways, or  stairways  of  the  building,  or place, empty or
     throw any rubbish, litter, trash, or material of any  nature into such
     areas, or permit such areas to be used at any time except  for ingress
     or  egress  of  Tenant, its agents, servants, employees, visitors,  or
     invitees.

     2. The movement of  furniture,  equipment,  merchandise,  or materials
     within,  into,  or  out  of the building shall be restricted to  time;
     method and routing of movement  as determined by Landlord upon request
     from Tenant, and Tenant shall assume  all  liability  and risk in such
     movement.   Safes  and  other  heavy  equipment  shall  be moved  into
