     4.2. Dividend Equivalents; Dividend Equivalent Stock Account.

     (a)  Allocation of Dividend Equivalents. Each Director shall be entitled to
receive Dividend Equivalents on the Units credited to his or her Stock Unit
Account and Dividend Equivalent Account, whether before or after a termination
of service, which Dividend Equivalents shall be credited to the Director's
Dividend Equivalent Stock Account in accordance with Section 4.2(b) below.

     (b)  Dividend Equivalent Stock Account. The Director's Dividend Equivalent
Stock Account shall be credited with an additional number of Units determined by
dividing the amount of Dividend Equivalents by the Fair Market Value of a share
of Common Stock as of each dividend payment date. The Units credited to a
Director's Dividend Equivalent Stock Account shall be allocated (for purposes of
distribution) in accordance with Section 4.4(b) and shall be subject to
adjustment in accordance with Section 4.5.

     4.3. Vesting of Stock Unit Account and Dividend Equivalent Stock Account.

     The rights of each Director in respect of his or her Stock Unit Account and
related Dividend Equivalent Stock Account shall vest immediately on crediting.

     4.4. Distribution of Benefits.

     (a)  Commencement of Benefits Distribution. Subject to the terms of this
Section 4.4, each Director shall be entitled to receive a distribution of his or
her Accounts upon a termination of service (including but not limited to a
retirement or resignation) as a Director of the Corporation. Benefits shall be
distributed at the time or times set forth in Section 4.4.

     (b)  Manner of Distribution. The benefits payable under this Plan shall be
distributed to the Director (or, in the event of his or her death, the
Director's Beneficiary) in a lump sum, unless the Director elects in writing (on
forms provided by the Corporation) by the time specified in Section 4.4(f), to
receive a distribution of his or her benefits in respect of such Units in
approximately equal annual installments (before giving effect to
post-termination crediting of additional Dividend Equivalents before the
applicable payment date) for up to ten years thereafter. Elections with respect
to any Units in the Stock Unit Account shall apply to all Dividend Equivalent
Units attributable to those Stock Units, and to all Dividend Equivalent Units
attributable to those Dividend Equivalent Units. Subject to Section 4.4(f),
installment payments shall commence as of the date benefits become distributable
under Section 4.4(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the vested balance
remaining in a Director's Stock Unit Account and Dividend Equivalent Stock
Account is less than 50 shares, then the remaining balance shall be distributed
in shares in a lump sum.

     (c)  Effect of Death or Disability. Notwithstanding Sections 4.4(a), (b)
and (f), if a Director's service as a director terminates by reason of
Disability, or a Director or former Director dies, the distribution of a
Director's Accounts (including remaining Account balances of a former Director)
shall be made immediately in a lump sum.

     (d)  Form of Distribution. Stock Units credited to a Director's Stock Unit
Account and Dividend Equivalent Stock Account shall be paid and distributed by
means of a distribution of an equivalent whole number of shares of the Common
Stock. Fractions shall be accumulated and converted to Units, but any fractional
interest in a Unit shall be paid in cash on final distribution. In the event of
a termination of service or retirement, a Director may elect, in accordance with
the provisions of Section 4.4(f), to have Stock Units credited to the Director's
Stock Unit Account and Dividend Share Equivalent

                                      -5-

<PAGE>

Account paid and distributed in the form of cash or a combination of whole
shares of Common Stock and cash. Any such election shall be made at times and in
the manner specified in Section 4.4(f).

     (e)  Sub-Accounts. The Administrator shall retain sub-accounts of a
Director's Accounts as may be necessary to determine which Units are subject to
any distribution elections under Section 4.4(b).

     (f)  Timing of Elections. A Director may change any election as to the
manner of distribution and file a new election choosing a lump sum or
installment payments as provided in Section 4.4(b), with respect to all of the
Director's Accounts or with respect to one or more specific Awards, by executing
and delivering to the Company an election (on such form as prescribed by the
Company) within the time periods described in this Section 4.4(f). An election
must be made prior to the Director's termination of service as a director and
(i) at least six months before the date the first payment would be due and (ii)
in a calendar year prior to the calendar year in which the first payment would
be due. In the event an election fails to satisfy the terms of this Section
4.4(f), such election shall be void and payment of a Director's Award shall
commence under the Director's previous valid election or, if none exists, in a
lump sum. In addition, in the event of a termination of service or retirement,
at least six months prior to receipt by a Director of any distribution of
benefits under the Plan, the Director shall make a written election (on forms to
be provided by the Corporation) as to the percentage the Director elects to
receive in the form of cash and the percentage the Director elects to receive in
the form of whole shares of Common Stock.

     4.5. Adjustments in Case of Changes in Common Stock. If there shall occur
any recapitalization, stock split (including a stock split in the form of a
stock dividend), reverse stock split, merger, combination, consolidation, or
other reorganization or any extraordinary non-cash dividend or other
extraordinary distribution in respect of the Stock (whether in the form of
Stock, other securities, or other property), or any split-up, spin-off,
extraordinary redemption, or exchange of outstanding Stock, or there shall occur
any other similar corporate transaction or event in respect of the Stock, or a
sale of substantially all the assets of the Corporation as an entirety,
proportionate and equitable adjustments consistent with the effect of such event
on stockholders generally (but without duplication of benefits if Dividend
Equivalents are credited) shall be made in the number and type of shares of
Common Stock (or other cash, property or securities in respect thereof)
reserved, and of Units, under this Plan.

     4.6. Corporation's Right to Withhold. The Corporation shall satisfy state
or federal income tax withholding obligations, if any, arising upon distribution
of a Director's accounts by reducing the number of shares of Common Stock
otherwise deliverable to the Director by the appropriate number of shares (based
on the Average Fair Market Value) required to satisfy such tax withholding
obligation. If the Corporation, for any reason, cannot satisfy the withholding
obligation in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Director shall pay or
provide for payment in cash of the amount of any taxes which the Corporation may
be required to withhold with respect to the benefits hereunder.

     4.7. Limitations on Rights Associated with Units. A Director's Accounts
shall be memorandum accounts on the books of the Corporation. The Units credited
to a Director's Accounts shall be used solely as a device for the determination
of the number of shares of Common Stock to be eventually distributed to such
Director in accordance with this Plan. The Units shall not be treated as
property or as a trust fund of any kind, although the Corporation shall reserve
shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligations under this Plan. All shares of
Common Stock or other amounts attributed to the Units shall be and remain the
sole property of the Corporation, and each Director's rights in the Units is
limited to the right to receive shares of Common Stock in the future as herein
provided. No Director shall be entitled to any voting or other stockholder
rights with respect to Units granted under this Plan. The

                                      -6-

<PAGE>

number of Units credited under this Section shall be subject to adjustment in
accordance with Section 4.5.

     4.8. Restrictions on Resale. Stock distributed in respect of those Stock
Units that were first credited under Section 4.1 within six months of the
distribution (and Dividend Equivalent Account Units credited under Section 4.2
solely in respect thereof) may be legended or otherwise restricted so as to
prevent a sale of the Stock within six months of the initial crediting of those
Stock Units. Installments shall be deemed payable and paid in the order (i.e.,
last-in, last-out) of the accrual of the underlying Units.

                                    ARTICLE V

consist exclusively of "non-employee directors" as that term is defined in Rule
16b-3 ("Rule 16b-3") promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under
Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to
Section 6.1 hereof, the Board shall have no discretionary authority with respect
to the amount or price of any Award granted under this Plan and no director
shall participate in any decision relating solely to his or her benefits (other
than approval of the Award). Subject to the foregoing, the Board may resolve any
questions and make all other determinations and adjustments required by this
Plan, maintain all the necessary records for the administration of this Plan,
and provide forms and procedures to facilitate the implementation of this Plan.

     5.2. Decisions Final; Delegation; Reliance; and Limitation on Liability.
Any determination of the Board or committee made in good faith shall be
conclusive. In performing its duties, the Board or the committee shall be
entitled to rely on public records and on information, opinions, reports or
statements prepared or presented by officers or employees of the Corporation or
other experts believed to be reliable and competent. The Board or the committee
may delegate ministerial, bookkeeping and other non-discretionary functions to
individuals who are officers or employees of the Corporation.

     Neither the Corporation nor any member of the Board, nor any other person
participating in any determination of any question under this Plan, or in the
interpretation, administration or application of this Plan, shall have any
liability to any party for any action taken or not taken in good faith under
this Plan or for the failure of an Award (or action or payment in respect of an
Award) to satisfy Code requirements for realization of intended tax
consequences, to qualify for exemption or relief under Rule 16b-3, or to comply
with any other law, compliance with which is not required on the part of the
Corporation.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                          PLAN CHANGES AND TERMINATION

     6.1. Amendments. The Board of Directors shall have the right to amend this
Plan in whole or in part from time to time or may at any time suspend or
terminate this Plan; provided, however, that no amendment or termination shall

Equivalents credited to his or her Stock Unit Account or Dividend Equivalent
Stock Account.

Effective Date, but continuance of this Plan is not assumed as a contractual
obligation of the Corporation. Effective May 1, 1999, the Plan is frozen. Other

Accounts prior to May 1, 1999, no further Awards shall be made under this Plan
on or after May 1, 1999. Benefits under the Plan shall continue to be paid in
accordance with Section 4.4 on or after May 1, 1999. When all benefits under the
Plan have been paid, the Plan shall be terminated.

     6.3. Distribution of Shares. If this Plan terminates pursuant to Section
6.2, the distribution of the Accounts of a Director shall be made at the time
provided in Section 4.4(a) and in a manner consistent with the elections made
pursuant to Sections 4.4(b) and (f), if any.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

     7.1. Limitation on Directors' Rights. Participation in this Plan shall not
give any Director the right to continue to serve as a member of the Board or any
rights or interests other than as herein provided. No Director shall have any
right to any payment or benefit hereunder except to the extent provided in this
Plan. This Plan shall create only a contractual obligation on the part of the
Corporation as to such amounts and shall not be construed as creating a trust.
This Plan, in and of itself, has no assets. Directors shall have only the rights
of general unsecured creditors of the Corporation with respect to amounts
credited or vested and benefits payable, if any, on their Accounts.

     7.2. Beneficiaries.

     (a)  Beneficiary Designation. Upon forms provided and in accordance with
procedures established by the Corporation, each Director may designate in
writing (and change a designation of) the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries (as
defined in Section 7.3(b)) that the Director chooses to receive the Common Stock
payable under this Plan after his or her death, subject to applicable laws
(including any applicable community property and probate laws).

     (b)  Definition of Beneficiary. A Director's "Beneficiary" or
"Beneficiaries" shall be the person or persons, including a trust or trusts,
validly designated by the Director or, in the absence of a valid designation,
entitled by will or the laws of descent and distribution to receive the
Director's benefits under this Plan in the event of the Director's death.

     7.3. Benefits Not Assignable; Obligations Binding Upon Successors. Benefits
of a Director under this Plan shall not be assignable or transferable and any
purported transfer, assignment, pledge or other encumbrance or attachment of any
payments or benefits under this Plan, or any interest therein, other than
pursuant to Section 7.2, shall not be permitted or recognized. Obligations of
the Corporation under this Plan shall be binding upon successors of the
Corporation.

     7.4. Governing Law; Severability. The validity of this Plan or any of its
provisions shall be construed, administered and governed in all respects under
and by the laws of the State of Maryland. If any provisions of this instrument
shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or
unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be fully
effective.

     7.5. Compliance With Laws. This Plan and the offer, issuance and delivery
of shares of Common Stock and/or the payment and deferral of compensation under
this Plan are subject to

                                      -8-

<PAGE>

compliance with all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations
(including but not limited to state and federal reporting, registration, insider
trading and other securities laws) and to such approvals by any listing agency
or any regulatory or governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel
for the Corporation, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Any
securities delivered under this Plan shall be subject to such restrictions, and
the person acquiring the securities shall, if requested by the Corporation,
provide such assurances and representations to the Corporation as the
Corporation may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all
applicable legal requirements.

     7.6. Plan Construction. It is the intent of the Corporation that this Plan
satisfy and be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the applicable
requirements of Rule 16b-3 so that Directors will be entitled to the benefits of
Rule 16b-3 or other exemptive rules under Section 16 of the Exchange Act and
will not be subjected to avoidable liability thereunder. Any contrary
interpretation shall be avoided.

     7.7. Headings Not Part of Plan. Headings and subheadings in this Plan are
inserted for reference only and are not to be considered in the construction of
this Plan.

     THIS POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT, dated as of October 1, 2002, among
FIRST HORIZON ASSET SECURITIES INC., a Delaware corporation, as depositor (the
"Depositor"), FIRST HORIZON HOME LOAN CORPORATION, a Kansas corporation, as
master servicer (the "Master Servicer"), and THE BANK OF NEW YORK, a banking
corporation organized under the laws of the State of New York, as trustee (the
"Trustee").

                                 WITNESSETH THAT

     In consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties
hereto agree as follows:

                              PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

     The Depositor is the owner of the Trust Fund that is hereby conveyed to the
Trustee in return for the Certificates. The Trust Fund for federal income tax
purposes will consist of two separate REMICs. The Certificates will represent
the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund. The Regular
Certificates will represent "regular interests" in the Upper REMIC. The Class
II-A-RU Certificates will represent the sole class of residual interests in the
Upper REMIC and the Class II-A-RL Certificates will represent the sole class of
residual interests in the Lower REMIC, as described in Section 2.7. The "latest
possible maturity date" for federal income tax purposes of all REMIC regular
interests created hereby will be the Latest Possible Maturity Date.

The following table sets forth characteristics of the Certificates, together
with the minimum denominations and integral multiples in excess thereof in which
such Classes shall be issuable (except that one Certificate of each Class of
Certificates may be issued in a different amount and, in addition, one Residual
Certificate representing the Tax Matters Person Certificate may be issued in a
different amount):

Certificates immediately prior to such Distribution Date, less such Class' share
of any Net Interest Shortfall, allocable among the outstanding Classes of Senior
Certificates of the related Certificate Group based on the Accrued Certificate
Interest otherwise distributable thereto, and allocable to the Subordinated

annum rate equal to the Mortgage Rate less the Master Servicing Fee Rate.

     Adjusted Net Mortgage Rate: As to each Mortgage Loan, and at any time, the

     Advance: The payment required to be made by the Master Servicer with

payment being equal to the aggregate of payments of principal and interest (net
of the Master Servicing Fee and net of any net income in the case of any REO
Property) on the Mortgage Loans that were due on the related Due Date and not
received as of the close of business on the related Determination Date, less the
aggregate amount of any such delinquent payments that the Master Servicer has
determined would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance if advanced.

       (a)    The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery
              hereof, hereby sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and otherwise

              the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans, will deliver or cause to be
              delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf within
              thirty (30) days following the Closing Date) for the benefit of

                     transfer all right, title and interest of the party so
                     endorsing, as noteholder or assignee thereof, in and to

                     recorded assignments of such mortgage (each such
                     assignment, when duly and validly completed, to be in
                     recordable form and sufficient to effect the assignment of
                     and transfer to the assignee thereof, under the Mortgage to
                     which the assignment relates); provided that, if the
                     related Mortgage has not been returned from the applicable
                     public recording office, such assignment of the Mortgage
                     may exclude the information to be provided by the recording
                     office;

              (iv)   the original or copies of each assumption, modification,
                     written assurance or substitution agreement, if any;

              (v)    either the original or duplicate original title policy
                     (including all riders thereto) with respect to the related
                     mortgaged property, if available, provided that the title
                     policy (including all riders thereto) will be delivered as
                     soon as it becomes available, and if the title policy is
                     not available, and to the extent required pursuant to the
                     second paragraph below or otherwise in connection with the
                     rating of the Certificates, a written commitment or interim
                     binder or preliminary report of the title issued by the
                     title insurance or escrow company with respect to the
                     mortgaged property, and

              (vi)   in the case of a Cooperative Loan, the originals of the
                     following documents or instruments:

                     (A)    The Coop Shares, together with a stock power in
                            blank;

                     (B)    The executed Security Agreement;

                     (C)    The executed Proprietary Lease;

                     (D)    The executed Recognition Agreement;

                     (E)    The executed UCC-1 financing statement with evidence
                            of recording thereon which have been filed in all
                            places required to perfect the Seller's interest in
                            the Coop Shares and the Proprietary Lease; and

                     (F)    Executed UCC-3 financing statements or other
                            appropriate UCC financing statements required by
                            state law, evidencing a complete

                                       34

<PAGE>

                            and unbroken line from the mortgagee to the Trustee
                            with evidence of recording thereon (or in a form
                            suitable for recordation).

       In the event that in connection with any Mortgage Loan the Depositor
cannot deliver (a) the original recorded Mortgage or (b) all interim recorded
assignments satisfying the requirements of clause (ii) or (iii) above,
respectively, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof because such
document or documents have not been returned from the applicable public
recording office, the Depositor shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered
to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf such original Mortgage or such
interim assignment, as the case may be, with evidence of recording indicated
thereon upon receipt thereof from the public recording office, or a copy
thereof, certified, if appropriate, by the relevant recording office, but in no
event shall any such delivery of the original Mortgage and each such interim
assignment or a copy thereof, certified, if appropriate, by the relevant
recording office, be made later than one year following the Closing Date;
provided, however, in the event the Depositor is unable to deliver or cause to
be delivered by such date each Mortgage and each such interim assignment by
reason of the fact that any such documents have not been returned by the
appropriate recording office, or, in the case of each such interim assignment,
because the related Mortgage has not been returned by the appropriate recording
office, the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered such documents to
the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf as promptly as possible upon receipt
thereof and, in any event, within 720 days following the Closing Date. The
Depositor shall forward or cause to be forwarded to the Trustee or the Custodian
on its behalf (a) from time to time additional original documents evidencing an
assumption or modification of a Mortgage Loan and (b) any other documents
required to be delivered by the Depositor or the Master Servicer to the Trustee.
In the event that the original Mortgage is not delivered and in connection with
the payment in full of the related Mortgage Loan and the public recording office
requires the presentation of a "lost instruments affidavit and indemnity" or any
equivalent document, because only a copy of the Mortgage can be delivered with
the instrument of satisfaction or reconveyance, the Master Servicer shall
execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered such a document to the
public recording office. In the case where a public recording office retains the
original recorded Mortgage or in the case where a Mortgage is lost after
recordation in a public recording office, the Depositor shall deliver or cause
to be delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf a copy of such
Mortgage certified by such public recording office to be a true and complete
copy of the original recorded Mortgage.

       In addition, in the event that in connection with any Mortgage Loan the
Depositor cannot deliver or cause to be delivered the original or duplicate
original lender's title policy (together with all riders thereto), satisfying
the requirements of clause (v) above, concurrently with the execution and
delivery hereof because the related Mortgage has not been returned from the
applicable public recording office, the Depositor shall promptly deliver or
cause to be delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf such
original or duplicate original lender's title policy (together with all riders
thereto) upon receipt thereof from the applicable title insurer, but in no event
shall any such delivery of the original or duplicate original lender's title
policy be made later than one year following the Closing Date; provided,
however, in the event the Depositor is unable to deliver or cause to be
delivered by such date the original or duplicate original lender's title policy
(together with all riders thereto) because the related Mortgage has not been
returned by the appropriate recording office, the Depositor shall deliver or
cause to be delivered such documents to the Trustee or the Custodian on its
behalf as promptly as possible

                                       35

<PAGE>

upon receipt thereof and, in any event, within 720 days following the Closing
Date. Notwithstanding the preceding, in connection with any Mortgage Loan for
which either the original or duplicate original title policy has not been
delivered to the Trust, if at any time during the term of this Agreement the
parent company of the Seller does not have a long term senior debt rating of A-
or higher from S&P and A- or higher from Fitch (if rated by Fitch), then the
Depositor shall within 30 days deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee
or the Custodian on its behalf (if it has not previously done so) a written
commitment or interim binder or preliminary report of the title issued by the
title insurance or escrow company with respect to the mortgaged property.

       Subject to the immediately following sentence, as promptly as practicable
subsequent to such transfer and assignment, and in any event, within thirty (30)
days thereafter, the Master Servicer shall (i) complete each assignment of
Mortgage, as follows: "First Horizon Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series
2002-7, The Bank of New York, as trustee for the holders of the Certificates",
(ii) cause such assignment to be in proper form for recording in the appropriate
public office for real property records and (iii) cause to be delivered for
recording in the appropriate public office for real property records the
assignments of the Mortgages to the Trustee, except that, with respect to any
assignments of Mortgage as to which the Master Servicer has not received the
information required to prepare such assignment in recordable form, the Master
Servicer's obligation to do so and to deliver the same for such recording shall
be as soon as practicable after receipt of such information and in any event
within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Master Servicer need not cause to be recorded any assignment which relates
to a Mortgage Loan in any state other than the Required Recordation States.

       In the case of Mortgage Loans that have been prepaid in full as of the
Closing Date, the Depositor, in lieu of delivering the above documents to the
Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf, will deposit in the Certificate Account
the portion of such payment that is required to be deposited in the Certificate
Account pursuant to Section 3.8 hereof.

       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, within thirty
days after the Closing Date, the Depositor shall either (i) deliver or cause to
be delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf the Mortgage File as
required pursuant to this Section 2.1 for each Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan or
(ii) (A) substitute or cause to be substituted a Substitute Mortgage Loan for
the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan or (B) repurchase or cause to be repurchased
the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan, which substitution or repurchase shall be
accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section
2.3 (treating each Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan as a Deleted Mortgage Loan for
purposes of such Section 2.3), provided, however, that if the Depositor fails to
deliver a Mortgage File for any Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan within the
thirty-day period provided in the prior sentence, the Depositor shall use its
best reasonable efforts to effect or cause to be effected a substitution, rather
than a repurchase of, such Deleted Mortgage Loan and provided further that the
cure period provided for in Section 2.2 or in Section 2.3 shall not apply to the
initial delivery of the Mortgage File for such Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan, but
rather the Depositor shall have five (5) Business Days to cure or cause to be
cured such failure to deliver. At the end of such thirty-day period, the Trustee
or the Custodian, on its behalf shall send a Delay Delivery Certification for
the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans delivered during such thirty-day period in
accordance with the provisions of

                                       36

<PAGE>

Section 2.2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, none of the Mortgage Loans in the Trust Fund is or will be Delay
Delivery Mortgage Loans.

              SECTION 2.2 Acceptance by Trustee of the Mortgage Loans.

       The Trustee or the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, acknowledges
receipt of the documents identified in the Initial Certification in the form
annexed hereto as Exhibit E and declares that it or the Custodian holds and will
hold such documents and the other documents delivered to it or the Custodian, as
applicable, constituting the Mortgage Files, and that it or the Custodian, as
applicable, holds or will hold such other assets as are included in the Trust
Fund, in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future
Certificateholders. The Trustee acknowledges that the Custodian will maintain
possession of the Mortgage Notes in the State of Illinois, unless otherwise
permitted by the Rating Agencies.

       The Trustee agrees to execute and deliver or to cause the Custodian to
execute and deliver on the Closing Date to the Depositor and the Master Servicer
an Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit E. Based on its
or the Custodian's review and examination, and only as to the documents
identified in such Initial Certification, the Custodian, on behalf of the
Trustee, acknowledges that such documents appear regular on their face and
relate to such Mortgage Loan. Neither the Trustee nor the Custodian shall be
under any duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine said documents,
instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that the same are
genuine, enforceable or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they
have actually been recorded in the real estate records or that they are other
than what they purport to be on their face.

       On or about the thirtieth (30th) day after the Closing Date, the Trustee
shall deliver or shall cause the Custodian to deliver to the Depositor and the
Master Servicer a Delay Delivery Certification in the form annexed hereto as
Exhibit F, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, none of the Mortgage Loans
in the Trust Fund is or will be Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans.

       Not later than 90 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deliver
or shall cause the Custodian to deliver to the Depositor and the Master Servicer
a Final Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit G, with any
applicable exceptions noted thereon.

       If, in the course of such review, the Trustee or the Custodian, on behalf
of the Trustee finds any document constituting a part of a Mortgage File which
does not meet the requirements of Section 2.1, the Trustee shall list or shall
cause the Custodian to list such as an exception in the Final Certification;
provided, however that neither the Trustee nor the Custodian shall make any
determination as to whether (i) any endorsement is sufficient to transfer all
right, title and interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee
thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note or (ii) any assignment is in recordable
form or is sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer to the assignee
thereof under the mortgage to which the assignment relates. The Seller shall
promptly correct or cure such defect within 90 days from the date it was so
notified of such defect and, if the Seller does not correct or cure such defect
within such period, the Seller shall either (a) substitute for the related
Mortgage Loan a Substitute Mortgage Loan, which substitution shall be
accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in

                                       37

<PAGE>

Section 2.3, or (b) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee within 90 days
from the date the Seller was notified of such defect in writing at the Purchase
Price of such Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall such
substitution or purchase occur more than 540 days from the Closing Date, except
that if the substitution or purchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this
provision is required by reason of a delay in delivery of any documents by the
appropriate recording office, and there is a dispute between either the Master
Servicer or the Seller and the Trustee over the location or status of the
recorded document, then such substitution or purchase shall occur within 720
days from the Closing Date. The Trustee shall deliver written notice to each
Rating Agency within 270 days from the Closing Date indicating each Mortgage
Loan (a) which has not been returned by the appropriate recording office or (b)
as to which there is a dispute as to location or status of such Mortgage Loan.
Such notice shall be delivered every 90 days thereafter until the related
Mortgage Loan is returned to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf. Any
such substitution pursuant to (a) above or purchase pursuant to (b) above shall
not be effected prior to the delivery to the Trustee of the Opinion of Counsel
required by Section 2.5 hereof, if any, and any substitution pursuant to (a)
above shall not be effected prior to the additional delivery to the Trustee of a
Request for Release substantially in the form of Exhibit L. No substitution is
permitted to be made in any calendar month after the Determination Date for such
month. The Purchase Price for any such Mortgage Loan shall be deposited by the
Seller in the Certificate Account on or prior to the Distribution Account
Deposit Date for the Distribution Date in the month following the month of
repurchase and, upon receipt of such deposit and certification with respect
thereto in the form of Exhibit M hereto, the Trustee shall cause the Custodian
to release the related Mortgage File to the Seller and shall execute and deliver
at the Seller's request such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by
the Seller, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the
Seller, or a designee, the Trustee's interest in any Mortgage Loan released
pursuant hereto.

       The Trustee shall retain or shall cause the Custodian to retain
possession and custody of each Mortgage File in accordance with and subject to
the terms and conditions set forth herein. The Master Servicer shall promptly
deliver to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf, upon the execution or
receipt thereof, the originals of such other documents or instruments
constituting the Mortgage File as come into the possession of the Master
Servicer from time to time.

       It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller to
substitute for or to purchase any Mortgage Loan which does not meet the
requirements of Section 2.1 above shall constitute the sole remedy respecting
such defect available to the Trustee, the Depositor and any Certificateholder
against the Seller.

              SECTION 2.3 Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the
       Seller and Master Servicer.

       (a)    The Master Servicer hereby makes the representations and
              warranties set forth in Schedule II hereto and by this reference
              incorporated herein, to the Depositor and the Trustee, as of the
              Closing Date, or if so specified therein, as of the Cut-off Date.

       (b)    The Depositor hereby assigns, transfers and conveys to the Trustee
              all of its rights and benefits with respect to the Mortgage Loans
              including, without limitation, the

                                       38

<PAGE>

              representations and warranties of the Seller made pursuant to
              Schedule B to the MLPA, together with all rights of the Depositor
              to require the Seller to cure any breach thereof or to repurchase
              or substitute for any affected Mortgage Loan in accordance with
              this Agreement.

       (c)    Upon discovery by any of the parties hereto of a breach of a
              representation or warranty made pursuant to Schedule B to the MLPA
              that materially and adversely affects the interests of the
              Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, the party discovering
              such breach shall give prompt notice thereof to the other parties.
              The Seller hereby covenants that within 90 days of the earlier of
              its discovery or its receipt of written notice from any party of a
              breach of any representation or warranty made pursuant to Schedule
              B to the MLPA which materially and adversely affects the interests
              of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, it shall cure such
              breach in all material respects, and if such breach is not so
              cured, shall, (i) if such 90-day period expires prior to the
              second anniversary of the Closing Date, remove such Mortgage Loan
              (a "Deleted Mortgage Loan") from the Trust Fund and substitute in
              its place a Substitute Mortgage Loan, in the manner and subject to
              the conditions set forth in this Section; or (ii) repurchase the
              affected Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans from the Trustee at the
              Purchase Price in the manner set forth below; provided, however,
              that any such substitution pursuant to (i) above shall not be
              effected prior to the delivery to the Trustee of the Opinion of
              Counsel required by Section 2.5 hereof, if any, and any such
              substitution pursuant to (i) above shall not be effected prior to
              the additional delivery to the Trustee or the Custodian on its
              behalf of a Request for Release substantially in the form of
              Exhibit M and the Mortgage File for any such Substitute Mortgage
              Loan. The Seller shall promptly reimburse the Master Servicer and
              the Trustee for any expenses reasonably incurred by the Master
              Servicer or the Trustee in respect of enforcing the remedies for
              such breach. With respect to the representations and warranties
              described in this Section which are made to the best of the
              Seller's knowledge, if it is discovered by either the Depositor,
              the Seller or the Trustee that the substance of such
              representation and warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy
              materially and adversely affects the value of the related Mortgage
              Loan or the interests of the Certificateholders therein,
              notwithstanding the Seller's lack of knowledge with respect to the
              substance of such representation or warranty, such inaccuracy
              shall be deemed a breach of the applicable representation or
              warranty.

       With respect to any Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Seller shall
deliver to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf for the benefit of the
Certificateholders the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the related assignment of
the Mortgage, and such other documents and agreements as are required by Section
2.1, with the Mortgage Note endorsed and the Mortgage assigned as required by
Section 2.1. No substitution is permitted to be made in any calendar month after
the Determination Date for such month. Scheduled Payments due with respect to
Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution shall not be part of the
Trust Fund and will be retained by the Seller on the next succeeding
Distribution Date. For the month of substitution, distributions to
Certificateholders will include the monthly payment due on any Deleted

                                       39

<PAGE>

Mortgage Loan for such month and thereafter the Seller shall be entitled to
retain all amounts received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Master
Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule for the benefit of the
Certificateholders to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan and the
substitution of the Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and the Master Servicer
shall deliver the amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee. Upon such
substitution, the Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall be subject to the
terms of this Agreement in all respects, and the Seller shall be deemed to have
made with respect to such Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the date of
substitution, the representations and warranties made pursuant to Schedule B to
the MLPA with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Upon any such substitution and the
deposit to the Certificate Account of the amount required to be deposited
therein in connection with such substitution as described in the following
paragraph, the Trustee shall release or shall cause the Custodian to release the
Mortgage File held for the benefit of the Certificateholders relating to such
Deleted Mortgage Loan to the Seller and shall execute and deliver at the
Seller's direction such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the
Seller, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest title in
the Seller, or its designee, the Trustee's interest in any Deleted Mortgage Loan
substituted for pursuant to this Section 2.3.

       For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Substitute
Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer will
determine the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal balance of all
such Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of substitution is less than the
aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans (after
application of the scheduled principal portion of the monthly payments due in
the month of substitution). The amount of such shortage (the "Substitution
Adjustment Amount") plus an amount equal to the aggregate of any unreimbursed
Advances with respect to such Deleted Mortgage Loans shall be deposited in the
Certificate Account by the Seller on or before the Distribution Account Deposit
Date for the Distribution Date in the month succeeding the calendar month during
which the related Mortgage Loan became required to be purchased or replaced
hereunder.

       In the event that the Seller shall have repurchased a Mortgage Loan, the
Purchase Price therefor shall be deposited in the Certificate Account pursuant
to Section 3.5 on or before the Distribution Account Deposit Date for the
Distribution Date in the month following the month during which the Seller
became obligated hereunder to repurchase or replace such Mortgage Loan and upon
such deposit of the Purchase Price, the delivery of the Opinion of Counsel
required by Section 2.5 and receipt of a Request for Release in the form of
Exhibit M hereto, the Trustee shall release or shall cause the Custodian to
release the related Mortgage File held for the benefit of the Certificateholders
to such Person, and the Trustee shall execute and deliver or shall cause the
Custodian to execute and deliver at such Person's direction such instruments of
transfer or assignment prepared by such Person, in each case without recourse,
as shall be necessary to transfer title from the Trustee. It is understood and
agreed that the obligation under this Agreement of the Seller to cure,
repurchase or replace any Mortgage Loan as to which a breach has occurred and is
continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against the Seller respecting such
breach available to Certificateholders, the Depositor or the Trustee on their
behalf.

       After giving effect to the sale of the Certificates by the Depositor to
the Underwriters, and thereafter, so long as any Certificates remain
outstanding, the Seller, its affiliates and agents,

                                       40

<PAGE>

collectively, shall not beneficially own Certificates the aggregate fair value
of which would represent 90% or more of the beneficial interests in the Trust
Fund.

       The representations and warranties made pursuant to this Section 2.3
shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to the Trustee or the
Custodian for the benefit of the Certificateholders.

              SECTION 2.4 Representations and Warranties of the Depositor as to
       the Mortgage Loans.

       The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee with respect
to each Mortgage Loan as of the date hereof or such other date set forth herein
that as of the Closing Date, and following the transfer of the Mortgage Loans to
it pursuant to the MLPA, the Depositor had good title to the Mortgage Loans and
the Mortgage Notes were subject to no offsets, defenses or counterclaims.

       It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set
forth in this Section 2.4 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to the
Trustee. Upon discovery by the Depositor or the Trustee of a breach of any of
the foregoing representations and warranties set forth in this Section 2.4
(referred to herein as a "breach"), which breach materially and adversely
affects the interest of the Certificateholders, the party discovering such
breach shall give prompt written notice to the others and to each Rating Agency.

              SECTION 2.5 Delivery of Opinion of Counsel in Connection with
       Substitutions.

       (a)    Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no
              substitution pursuant to Section 2.2 or Section 2.3 shall be made
              more than 90 days after the Closing Date unless the Depositor
              delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, which Opinion of
              Counsel shall not be at the expense of either the Trustee or the
              Trust Fund, addressed to the Trustee, to the effect that such
              substitution will not (i) result in the imposition of the tax on
              "prohibited transactions" on the Trust Fund or contributions after
              the Startup Date, as defined in Sections 860F(a)(2) and 860G(d) of
              the Code, respectively, or (ii) cause any REMIC created hereunder
              to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates
              are outstanding.

       (b)    Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the
              Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a "qualified
              mortgage" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code,
              the party discovering such fact shall promptly (and in any event
              within five (5) Business Days of discovery) give written notice
              thereof to the other parties. In connection therewith, the Trustee
              shall require the Depositor to cause the Seller, pursuant to the
              MLPA and at the Seller's option, to either (i) substitute, if the
              conditions in Section 2.3(c) with respect to substitutions are
              satisfied, a Substitute Mortgage Loan for the affected Mortgage
              Loan, or (ii) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days
              of such discovery in the same manner as it would a Mortgage Loan
              for a breach of representation or warranty made pursuant to
              Section 2.3. The Trustee shall reconvey or shall cause

                                       41

<PAGE>

              the Custodian to reconvey to the Seller the Mortgage Loan to be
              released pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on the same terms
              and conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach
              of a representation or warranty contained in Section 2.3.

              SECTION 2.6 Execution and Delivery of Certificates.

       The Trustee acknowledges the transfer and assignment to it of the Trust
Fund and, concurrently with such transfer and assignment, has executed and
delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor, the Certificates in authorized
denominations evidencing directly or indirectly the entire ownership of the
Trust Fund. The Trustee agrees to hold the Trust Fund and exercise the rights
referred to above for the benefit of all present and future Holders of the
Certificates and to perform the duties set forth in this Agreement to the best
of its ability, to the end that the interests of the Holders of the Certificates
may be adequately and effectively protected.

              SECTION 2.7 REMIC Matters.

       The Preliminary Statement sets forth the designations and "latest
possible maturity date" for federal income tax purposes of all REMIC regular
interests created hereby. Each interest identified in the table below by a
designation beginning with "L" shall be a "regular interest" in the Lower REMIC
and the Class II-A-RL Certificates shall be the sole class of residual interest
in the Lower REMIC. The Lower REMIC Interests shall be uncertificated and shall
be held by the Trustee as assets of the Upper REMIC. The assets of the Lower
REMIC shall be as set forth in the definition thereof. The assets of the Upper
REMIC shall be as set forth in the definition thereof. The "Startup Day" for
purposes of the REMIC Provisions shall be the Closing Date. The Tax Matters
Person with respect to each REMIC hereunder shall be the Trustee and the Trustee
shall hold the Tax Matters Person Certificate. Each REMIC's taxable year shall
be the calendar year and its accounts shall be maintained using the accrual
method.

(6) The Pass-Through Rate on each Class of Subordinated Certificates is variable
and will be equal to the weighted average of the Designated Mortgage Pool Rates,
weighted on the basis of the Group Subordinate Amount for each Mortgage Pool.

       On each Distribution Date Available Funds shall be distributed with
respect to the Lower REMIC Interests and the Class II-A-RL Certificate in a
manner such that:

              (i)    interest accrued on each Lower REMIC Interest is
                     distributed with respect to each such Lower REMIC Interest
                     in the same manner that Accrued Certificate Interest is
                     distributed with respect to the Corresponding Class or
                     Classes of Certificates pursuant to Section 4.2(a)(i) and
                     (ii);

                     Section 4.2(a)(i) and (ii);

              (iii)  principal is distributed on each Lower REMIC Interest, such
                     that the principal balance of each such Lower REMIC
                     Interest always equals the principal balance of its
                     Corresponding Class of Certificates; and

              (iv)   principal is distributed on the Class II-A-RU and Class
                     II-A-RL Certificates as provided in Section 4.2(b)(ii)(A).

              SECTION 2.8 Covenants of the Master Servicer.

       The Master Servicer hereby covenants to the Depositor and the Trustee as
follows:

       (a)    the Master Servicer shall comply in the performance of its
              obligations under this Agreement with all reasonable rules and
              requirements of the insurer under each Required Insurance Policy;
              and

       (b)    no written information, certificate of an officer, statement
              furnished in writing or written report delivered to the Depositor,
              any affiliate of the Depositor or the Trustee and prepared by the
              Master Servicer pursuant to this Agreement will contain any untrue
              statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
              necessary to make such information, certificate, statement or
              report not misleading.

                                   ARTICLE III
                 ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS

              SECTION 3.1 Master Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans.

       For and on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall
service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement and customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage loan
servicers. In connection with such servicing and administration, the Master
Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone and/or through
Subservicers as provided in Section 3.2 hereof, to do or cause to be done any
and all things that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such
servicing and administration, including but not limited to, the power and
authority, subject to the terms hereof (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of
the Certificateholders and the Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other
instruments and documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged
Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages (but only
in the manner provided in this Agreement), (iii) to collect any Insurance
Proceeds and other Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or
other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any
Mortgage Loan; provided that the Master Servicer shall not 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

                                       44

<PAGE>

and the Certificateholders 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 permit
any modification, waiver or amendment of any Mortgage Loan which would cause any
REMIC created hereunder 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 the Depositor and the Trustee, is hereby authorized
and empowered by the Depositor and the Trustee, when the Master Servicer
believes it appropriate in its reasonable judgment, to execute and deliver, on
behalf of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificateholders or any of them, any
and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full
release or discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the
Mortgage Loans, and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties held for the
benefit of the Certificateholders. The Master Servicer shall prepare and deliver
to the Depositor and/or the Trustee such documents requiring execution and
delivery by either or both of them as are necessary or appropriate to enable the
Master Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans to the extent that
the Master Servicer is not permitted to execute and deliver such documents
pursuant to the preceding sentence. Upon receipt of such documents, the
Depositor and/or the Trustee shall execute such documents and deliver them to
the Master Servicer.

       In accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph, the Master
Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary for the
purpose of effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged
Properties, which advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from
related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.6, and further as
provided in Section 3.8. The costs incurred by the Master Servicer, if any, in
effecting the timely payments of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged
Properties and related insurance premiums shall not, for the purpose of
calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders, be added to the
Stated Principal Balances of the related Mortgage Loans, notwithstanding that
the terms of such Mortgage Loans so permit.

              SECTION 3.2 Subservicing; Enforcement of the Obligations of
       Servicers.

       (a)    The Master Servicer may arrange for the subservicing of any
              Mortgage Loan by a Subservicer pursuant to a subservicing
              agreement; provided, however, that such subservicing arrangement
              and the terms of the related subservicing agreement must provide
              for the servicing of such Mortgage Loans in a manner consistent
              with the servicing arrangements contemplated hereunder. Unless the
              context otherwise requires, references in this Agreement to
              actions taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer in servicing
              the Mortgage Loans include actions taken or to be taken by a
              Subservicer on behalf of the Master Servicer. Notwithstanding the
              provisions of any subservicing agreement, any of the provisions of
              this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the
              Master Servicer and a Subservicer or reference to actions taken
              through a Subservicer or otherwise, the Master Servicer shall
              remain obligated and liable to the Depositor, the Trustee and the
              Certificateholders for the servicing and administration of the
              Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
              without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of
              such subservicing

                                       45

<PAGE>

              agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from
              the Subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms
              and conditions as if the Master Servicer alone were servicing and
              administering the Mortgage Loans. All actions of each Subservicer
              performed pursuant to the related subservicing agreement shall be
              performed as an agent of the Master Servicer with the same force
              and effect as if performed directly by the Master Servicer.

       (b)    For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be
              deemed to have received any collections, recoveries or payments
              with respect to the Mortgage Loans that are received by a
              Subservicer regardless of whether such payments are remitted by
              the Subservicer to the Master Servicer.

              SECTION 3.3 Rights of the Depositor and the Trustee in Respect of
       the Master Servicer.

       The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of
the Master Servicer hereunder and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or
cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master Servicer
hereunder and in connection with any such defaulted obligation to exercise the
related rights of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided that the Master
Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder by virtue of
such performance by the Depositor or its designee. Neither the Trustee nor the
Depositor shall have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure
to act by the Master Servicer nor shall the Trustee or the Depositor be
obligated to supervise the performance of the Master Servicer hereunder or
otherwise.

              SECTION 3.4 Trustee to Act as Master Servicer.

       In the event that the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be
the Master Servicer hereunder (including by reason of an Event of Default), the
Trustee or its successor shall thereupon assume all of the rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder arising thereafter (except that the
Trustee shall not be (i) liable for losses of the Master Servicer pursuant to
Section 3.9 hereof or any acts or omissions of the predecessor Master Servicer
hereunder), (ii) obligated to make Advances if it is prohibited from doing so by
applicable law, (iii) obligated to effectuate repurchases or substitutions of
Mortgage Loans hereunder including, but not limited to, repurchases or
substitutions of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 2.2 or 2.3 hereof, (iv)
responsible for expenses of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 2.3 or (v)
deemed to have made any representations and warranties of the Master Servicer
hereunder). Any such assumption shall be subject to Section 7.2 hereof. If the
Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Master Servicer (including
by reason of any Event of Default), the Trustee or its successor shall succeed
to any rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under each subservicing
agreement.

       The Master Servicer shall, upon request of the Trustee, but at the
expense of the Master Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all documents and
records relating to each subservicing agreement or substitute subservicing
agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced thereunder and an
accounting of amounts collected or held by it and otherwise use its best efforts

                                       46

<PAGE>

to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the substitute subservicing
agreement to the assuming party.

              SECTION 3.5 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments; Certificate
       Account; Distribution Account.

       (a)    The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts in accordance
              with the customary and usual standards of practice of prudent
              mortgage servicers to collect all payments called for under the
              terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans to the extent such
              procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms
              and provisions of any related Required Insurance Policy.
              Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its
              discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or any prepayment
              charge or penalty interest in connection with the prepayment of a
              Mortgage Loan and (ii) extend the due dates for payments due on a
              Mortgage Note for a period not greater than 180 days; provided,
              however, that the Master Servicer cannot extend the maturity of
              any such Mortgage Loan 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 such arrangement, the Master Servicer shall
              make Advances on the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with the
              provisions of Section 4.1 during the scheduled period in
              accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan
              without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements. The
              Master Servicer shall not be required to institute or join in
              litigation with respect to collection of any payment (whether
              under a Mortgage, Mortgage Note or otherwise or against any public
              or governmental authority with respect to a taking or
              condemnation) if it reasonably believes that enforcing the
              provision of the Mortgage or other instrument pursuant to which
              such payment is required is prohibited by applicable law.

       (b)    The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain the Certificate
              Account. The Certificate Account shall consist of two separate
              subaccounts, each of which shall relate to a particular Mortgage
              Pool. No later than two Business Days after receipt, except as
              otherwise specifically provided herein, the Master Servicer shall
              deposit or shall cause to be deposited into the applicable
              subaccount of the Certificate Account the following payments and
              collections remitted by Subservicers or received by it in respect
              of the Mortgage Loans in the related Mortgage Pool subsequent to
              the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal and interest
              due on such Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date) and the
              following amounts required to be deposited hereunder:

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

              (ii)   all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans
                     in the related Mortgage Pool, net of the related Master
                     Servicing Fee, any Prepayment Interest Excess and, for so
                     long as First Horizon is the Master Servicer, any Retained
                     Yield;

                                       47

<PAGE>

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

              (iv)   any amount required to be deposited by the Master Servicer
                     in respect of the related Mortgage Pool pursuant to Section
                     3.5(c) in connection with any losses on Permitted
                     Investments;

              (v)    any amounts required to be deposited by the Master Servicer
                     in respect of the related Mortgage Pool pursuant to Section
                     3.9(b), 3.9(d), and in respect of net monthly rental income
                     from any related REO Property pursuant to Section 3.11
                     hereof;

              (vi)   all Substitution Adjustment Amounts in respect of the
                     related Mortgage Pool;

              (vii)  all Advances in respect of the related Mortgage Pool made
                     by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.1; and

              (viii) any other amounts required to be deposited hereunder in
                     respect of the related Mortgage Pool.

              In addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is subject to
       a buydown agreement, on each Due Date for such Mortgage Loan, in addition
       to the monthly payment remitted by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer
       shall cause funds to be deposited into the applicable subaccount of the
       Certificate Account in an amount required to cause an amount of interest
       to be paid with respect to such Mortgage Loan equal to the amount of
       interest that has accrued on such Mortgage Loan from the preceding Due
       Date at the related Adjusted Mortgage Rate on such date.

              The foregoing requirements for remittance by the Master Servicer
       shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting
       the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of prepayment
       penalties, late payment charges, assumption fees or amounts attributable
       to reimbursements of Advances, if collected, need not be remitted by the
       Master Servicer. In the event that the Master Servicer shall remit any
       amount not required to be remitted, it may at any time withdraw or direct
       the institution maintaining the Certificate Account to withdraw such
       amount from the Certificate Account, any provision herein to the contrary
       notwithstanding. Such withdrawal or direction may be accomplished by
       delivering written notice thereof to the Trustee or such other
       institution maintaining the Certificate Account which describes the
       amounts deposited in error in the Certificate Account. The Master
       Servicer shall maintain adequate records with respect to all withdrawals
       made pursuant to this Section. All funds deposited in the Certificate
       Account shall be held in trust for the Certificateholders until withdrawn
       in accordance with Section 3.8.

                                       48

       (c)    The Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the
              Certificateholders, the Distribution Account. The Distribution
              Account shall consist of two separate subaccounts, each of which
              shall relate to a particular Mortgage Pool. The Trustee shall,
              promptly upon receipt, deposit in the Distribution Account and
              retain therein the following:

              (i)    the aggregate amount remitted by the Master Servicer to the
                     Trustee in respect of a Mortgage Pool pursuant to Section
                     3.8(a)(ix);

              (ii)   any amount deposited by the Master Servicer pursuant to
                     this Section 3.5(c) in connection with any losses on
                     Permitted Investments; and

              (iii)  any other amounts deposited hereunder which are required to
                     be deposited in the Distribution Account.

              In the event that the Master Servicer shall remit any amount not
       required to be remitted, it may at any time direct the Trustee to
       withdraw such amount from the applicable subaccount of the Distribution
       Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Such
       direction may be accomplished by delivering an Officer's Certificate to
       the Trustee which describes the amounts deposited in error in the
       Distribution Account. All funds deposited in the Distribution Account
       shall be held by the Trustee in trust for the related Certificateholders
       until disbursed in accordance with this Agreement or withdrawn in
       accordance with Section 3.8. In no event shall the Trustee incur
       liability for withdrawals from the Distribution Account at the direction
       of the Master Servicer.

              (iv)   The institutions at which the Certificate Account and the
                     Distribution Account are maintained shall invest funds as
                     directed by the Master Servicer in Permitted Investments
                     which in both cases shall mature not later than (i) in the
                     case of the Certificate Account, the second Business Day
                     next preceding the related Distribution Account Deposit
                     Date (except that if such Permitted Investment is an
                     obligation of the institution that maintains such account,
                     then such Permitted Investment shall mature not later than
                     the Business Day next preceding such Distribution Account
                     Deposit Date) and (ii) in the case of the Distribution
                     Account, the Business Day next preceding the Distribution
                     Date (except that if such Permitted Investment is an
                     obligation of the institution that maintains such fund or
                     account, then such Permitted Investment shall mature not
                     later than such Distribution Date) and, in each case, shall
                     not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All such
                     Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of the
                     Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders. All
                     income and gain net of any losses realized from any such
                     investment of funds on deposit in the Certificate Account
                     shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as
                     servicing compensation and all income and gain net of any
                     losses realized from any such investment of funds on
                     deposit in the Distribution Account shall be for the
                     benefit of the Trustee. The amount of any Realized Losses
                     in the Certificate Account in respect of any

                                       49

<PAGE>

                 such investments shall promptly be deposited by the Master
                 Servicer in the Certificate Account and the amount of any
                 Realized Losses in the Distribution Account in respect of any
                 such investments shall promptly be deposited by the Trustee
                 into the Distribution Account. All reinvestment income earned
                 on amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account shall be for
                 the benefit of the Trustee. The Trustee in its fiduciary
                 capacity shall not be liable for the amount of any loss
                 incurred in respect of any investment or lack of investment of
                 funds held in the Certificate Account and made in accordance
                 with this Section 3.5.

           (v)   The Master Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, the
                 Seller, each Rating Agency and the Depositor of any proposed
                 change of the location of the Certificate Account prior to any
                 change thereof. The Trustee shall give notice to the Master
                 Servicer, the Seller, each Rating Agency and the Depositor of
                 any proposed change of the location of the Distribution Account
                 prior to any change thereof.

           SECTION 3.6 Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items;
     Escrow Accounts.

     (a)   To the extent required by the related Mortgage Note and not violative
           of current law, the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one
           or more accounts (each, an "Escrow Account") and deposit and retain
           therein all collections from the Mortgagors (or advances by the
           Master Servicer) for the payment of taxes, assessments, hazard
           insurance premiums or comparable items for the account of the
           Mortgagors. Nothing herein shall require the Master Servicer to
           compel a Mortgagor to establish an Escrow Account in violation of
           applicable law.

     (b)   Withdrawals of amounts so collected from the Escrow Accounts may be
           made only to effect timely payment of taxes, assessments, hazard
           insurance premiums, condominium or PUD association dues, or
           comparable items, to reimburse the Master Servicer out of related
           collections for any payments made pursuant to Sections 3.1 hereof
           (with respect to taxes and assessments and insurance premiums) and
           3.9 hereof (with respect to hazard insurance), to refund to any
           Mortgagors any sums determined to be overages, to pay interest, if
           required by law or the terms of the related Mortgage or Mortgage
           Note, to Mortgagors on balances in the Escrow Account or to clear and
           terminate the Escrow Account at the termination of this Agreement in
           accordance with Section 9.1 hereof. The Escrow Accounts shall not be
           a part of the Trust Fund.

     (c)   The Master Servicer shall advance any payments referred to in Section
           3.6(a) that are not timely paid by the Mortgagors on the date when
           the tax, premium or other cost for which such payment is intended is
           due, but the Master Servicer shall be required so to advance only to
           the extent that such advances, in the good faith judgment of the
           Master Servicer, will be recoverable by the Master Servicer out of
           Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or otherwise.

<PAGE>

          SECTION 3.7 Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding
     the Mortgage Loans.

     The Master Servicer shall afford the Depositor and the Trustee reasonable
access to all records and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans and all
accounts, insurance information and other matters relating to this Agreement,
such access being afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and
during normal business hours at the office designated by the Master Servicer.

     Upon reasonable advance notice in writing, the Master Servicer will provide
to each Certificateholder which is a savings and loan association, bank or
insurance company certain reports and reasonable access to information and
documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans sufficient to permit such
Certificateholder to comply with applicable regulations of the OTS or other
regulatory authorities with respect to investment in the Certificates; provided
that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed by each such
Certificateholder for actual expenses incurred by the Master Servicer in
providing such reports and access.

          SECTION 3.8 Permitted Withdrawals from the Certificate Account and
     Distribution Account.

     (a)  The Master Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the
          applicable subaccount of the Certificate Account for the following
          purposes:

          (i)   to the extent not previously retained by the Master Servicer, to
                pay to First Horizon the Retained Yield and to pay to the Master
                Servicer the master servicing compensation to which it is
                entitled pursuant to Section 3.14, and earnings on or investment
                income with respect to funds in or credited to the Certificate
                Account as additional master servicing compensation;

          (ii)  to the extent not previously retained by the Master Servicer, to
                reimburse the Master Servicer for unreimbursed Advances made by
                it in respect of the related Mortgage Pool, such right of
                reimbursement pursuant to this subclause (ii) being limited to
                amounts received on the Mortgage Loan(s) in respect of which any
                such Advance was made;

          (iii) to reimburse the Master Servicer for any Nonrecoverable Advance
                previously made in respect of the related Mortgage Pool;

          (iv)  to reimburse the Master Servicer for Insured Expenses from the
                related Insurance Proceeds in respect of the related Mortgage
                Pool;

          (v)   to reimburse the Master Servicer for (a) unreimbursed Servicing
                Advances in respect of the related Mortgage Pool, the Master
                Servicer's right to reimbursement pursuant to this clause (a)
                with respect to any Mortgage Loan being limited to amounts
                received on such Mortgage Loan(s) which represent late
                recoveries of the payments for which such advances were made
                pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 3.6 and (b) for unpaid Master
                Servicing Fees as provided in Section 3.11 hereof;

          (vi)   to pay to the Seller, with respect to each Mortgage Loan in
                 respect of the related Mortgage Pool or property acquired in
                 respect thereof that has been purchased pursuant to Section
                 2.2, 2.3 or 3.11, all amounts received thereon after the date
                 of such purchase;

          (vii)  to reimburse the Seller, the Master Servicer or the Depositor
                 for expenses incurred by any of them and reimbursable pursuant
                 to Section 6.3 hereof;

          (viii) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Certificate Account and
                 not required to be deposited therein;

          (ix)   on or prior to the Distribution Account Deposit Date, to
                 withdraw an amount equal to the related Available Funds and the
                 Trustee Fee for such Distribution Date and remit such amount to
                 the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account; and

          (x)    to clear and terminate the Certificate Account upon termination
                 of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof.

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

          The Master Servicer shall distribute the Retained Yield, if any, to
     First Horizon on each Distribution Account Deposit Date during the term of
     this Agreement.

     (b)  The Trustee shall withdraw funds from the applicable subaccount of the
          Distribution Account for distributions to the related
          Certificateholders in the manner specified in this Agreement (and to
          withhold from the amounts so withdrawn, the amount of any taxes that
          it is authorized to withhold pursuant to the last paragraph of Section
          8.11). In addition, the Trustee may prior to making the distribution
          pursuant to Section 4.2 from time to time make withdrawals from the
          Distribution Account for the following purposes:

          (i)    to pay to itself the Trustee Fee for the related Distribution
                 Date;

          (ii)   to pay to itself earnings on or investment income with respect
                 to funds in the Distribution Account;

          (iii)  to withdraw and return to the Master Servicer any amount
                 deposited in the Distribution Account and not required to be
                 deposited therein; and

                                       52

<PAGE>

          (iv)   to clear and terminate the Distribution Account upon
                 termination of the Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof.

          SECTION 3.9 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance; Maintenance of Primary
     Insurance Policies.

     (a)  The Master Servicer shall cause to be maintained, for each Mortgage
          Loan, hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount that is at
          least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the
          improvements securing such Mortgage Loan or (ii) the greater of (y)
          the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (z) an
          amount such that the proceeds of such policy shall be sufficient to
          prevent the Mortgagor and/or the mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer.
          Each such policy of standard hazard insurance shall contain, or have
          an accompanying endorsement that contains, a standard mortgagee
          clause. Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer under any such
          policies (other than the amounts to be applied to the restoration or
          repair of the related Mortgaged Property or amounts released to the
          Mortgagor in accordance with the Master Servicer's normal servicing
          procedures) shall be deposited in the applicable subaccount of the
          Certificate Account. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer in
          maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of
          calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders or
          remittances to the Trustee for their benefit, be added to the
          principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms
          of the Mortgage Loan so permit. Such costs shall be recoverable by the
          Master Servicer out of late payments by the related Mortgagor or out
          of Liquidation Proceeds to the extent permitted by Section 3.8 hereof.
          It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional
          insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or maintained on property
          acquired in respect of a Mortgage other than pursuant to such
          applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and
          as shall require such additional insurance. If the Mortgaged Property
          is located at the time of origination of the Mortgage Loan in a
          federally designated special flood hazard area and such area is
          participating in the national flood insurance program, the Master
          Servicer shall cause flood insurance to be maintained with respect to
          such Mortgage Loan. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal
          to the least of (i) the original principal balance of the related
          Mortgage Loan, (ii) the replacement value of the improvements which
          are part of such Mortgaged Property, and (iii) the maximum amount of
          such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property under the
          national flood insurance program.

     (b)  In the event that the Master Servicer shall obtain and maintain a
          blanket policy insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage
          Loans, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its
          obligations as set forth in the first sentence of this Section, it
          being understood and agreed that such policy may contain a deductible
          clause on terms substantially equivalent to those commercially
          available and maintained by comparable servicers. If such policy
          contains a deductible clause, the Master Servicer shall, in the event
          that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged
          Property a policy complying with the first sentence of

                                       53

<PAGE>

          this Section, and there shall have been a loss that would have been
          covered by such policy, deposit in the applicable subaccount of the
          Certificate Account the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket
          policy because of such deductible clause. In connection with its
          activities as Master Servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Master
          Servicer agrees to present, on behalf of itself, the Depositor, and
          the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, claims under
          any such blanket policy.

     (c)  The Master Servicer shall not take any action which would result in
          non-coverage under any applicable Primary Insurance Policy of any loss
          which, but for the actions of the Master Servicer, would have been
          covered thereunder. The Master Servicer shall not cancel or refuse to
          renew any such Primary 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 unless the replacement Primary Insurance Policy for
          such canceled or non-renewed policy is maintained with a Qualified
          Insurer.

     The Master Servicer shall not be required to maintain any Primary Insurance
Policy (i) with respect to any Mortgage Loan with a Loan-to-Value Ratio less
than or equal to 80% as of any date of determination or, based on a new
appraisal, the principal balance of such Mortgage Loan represents 80% or less of
the new appraised value or (ii) if maintaining such Primary Insurance Policy is
prohibited by applicable law.

     The Master Servicer agrees to effect the timely payment of the premiums on
each Primary Insurance Policy, and such costs not otherwise recoverable shall be
recoverable by the Master Servicer from the related liquidation proceeds.

     (d)  In connection with its activities as Master Servicer of the Mortgage
          Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to present on behalf of itself, the
          Trustee and Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any
          Primary Insurance Policies and, in this regard, to take such
          reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any
          Primary Insurance Policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Any
          amounts collected by the Master Servicer under any Primary Insurance
          Policies shall be deposited in the applicable subaccount of the
          Certificate Account.

          SECTION 3.10 Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption
                       Agreements.

     (a)  Except as otherwise provided in this Section, when any property
          subject to a Mortgage has been conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Master
          Servicer shall to the extent that it has knowledge of such conveyance,
          enforce any due-on-sale clause contained in any Mortgage Note or
          Mortgage, to the extent permitted under applicable law and
          governmental regulations, but only to the extent that such enforcement
          will not adversely affect or jeopardize coverage under any Required
          Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer
          is not required to exercise such rights with respect to a Mortgage
          Loan if the Person to whom the related Mortgaged Property has been
          conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed satisfies the terms and
          conditions contained in the Mortgage Note and

                                       54

<PAGE>

          Mortgage related thereto and the consent of the mortgagee under such
          Mortgage Note or Mortgage is not otherwise so required under such
          Mortgage Note or Mortgage as a condition to such transfer. In the
          event that the Master Servicer is prohibited by law from enforcing any
          such due-on-sale clause, or if coverage under any Required Insurance
          Policy would be adversely affected, or if nonenforcement is otherwise
          permitted hereunder, the Master Servicer is authorized, subject to
          Section 3.10(b), to take or enter into an assumption and modification
          agreement from or with the person to whom such property has been or is
          about to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable
          under the Mortgage Note and, unless prohibited by applicable state
          law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon, provided that the Mortgage
          Loan shall continue to be covered (if so covered before the Master
          Servicer enters such agreement) by the applicable Required Insurance
          Policies. The Master Servicer, subject to Section 3.10(b), is also
          authorized with the prior approval of the insurers under any Required
          Insurance Policies to enter into a substitution of liability agreement
          with such Person, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released
          from liability and such Person is substituted as Mortgagor and becomes
          liable under the Mortgage Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
          Master Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default under this
          Section by reason of any transfer or assumption which the Master
          Servicer reasonably believes it is restricted by law from preventing,
          for any reason whatsoever.

     (b)  Subject to the Master Servicer's duty to enforce any due-on-sale
          clause to the extent set forth in Section 3.10(a) hereof, in any case
          in which a Mortgaged Property has been conveyed to a Person by a
          Mortgagor, and such Person is to enter into an assumption agreement or
          modification agreement or supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage
          that requires the signature of the Trustee, or if an instrument of
          release signed by the Trustee is required releasing the Mortgagor from
          liability on the Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall prepare and
          deliver or cause to be prepared and delivered to the Trustee for
          signature and shall direct, in writing, the Trustee to execute the
          assumption agreement with the Person to whom the Mortgaged Property is
          to be conveyed and such modification agreement or supplement to the
          Mortgage Note or Mortgage or other instruments as are reasonable or
          necessary to carry out the terms of the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or
          otherwise to comply with any applicable laws regarding assumptions or
          the transfer of the Mortgaged Property to such Person. In connection
          with any such assumption, no material term of the Mortgage Note may be
          changed. In addition, the substitute Mortgagor and the Mortgaged
          Property must be acceptable to the Master Servicer in accordance with
          its underwriting standards as then in effect. Together with each such
          substitution, assumption or other agreement or instrument delivered to
          the Trustee for execution by it, the Master Servicer shall deliver an
          Officer's Certificate signed by a Servicing Officer stating that the
          requirements of this subsection have been met in connection therewith.
          The Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee that any such
          substitution or assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding
          to the Trustee the original of such substitution or assumption
          agreement, which in the case of the original shall be added to the
          related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a
          part

                                       55

<PAGE>

          of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and
          instruments constituting a part thereof. Any fee collected by the
          Master Servicer for entering into an assumption or substitution of
          liability agreement will be retained by the Master Servicer as
          additional servicing compensation.

          SECTION 3.11 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans; Repurchase of
     Certain Mortgage Loans.

     The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to foreclose upon or
otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the
Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no
satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments. In
connection with such foreclosure or other conversion, the Master Servicer shall
follow such practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable and
as shall be normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities and
meet the requirements of the insurer under any Required Insurance Policy;
provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not be required to expend its
own funds in connection with any foreclosure or towards the restoration of any
property unless it shall determine (i) that such restoration and/or foreclosure
will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan after
reimbursement to itself of such expenses and (ii) that such expenses will be
recoverable to it through Liquidation Proceeds (respecting which it shall have
priority for purposes of withdrawals from the Certificate Account). The Master
Servicer shall be responsible for all other costs and expenses incurred by it in
any such proceedings; provided, however, that it shall be entitled to
reimbursement thereof from the liquidation proceeds with respect to the related
Mortgaged Property, as provided in the definition of Liquidation Proceeds. If
the Master Servicer has knowledge that a Mortgaged Property which the Master
Servicer is contemplating acquiring in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of
foreclosure is located within a 1 mile radius of any site listed in the
Expenditure Plan for the Hazardous Substance Clean Up Bond Act of 1984 or other
site with environmental or hazardous waste risks known to the Master Servicer,
the Master Servicer will, prior to acquiring the Mortgaged Property, consider
such risks and only take action in accordance with its established environmental
review procedures.

     With respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale shall be
taken in the name of the Trust Fund for the benefit of the Certificateholders,
or its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders. The Master Servicer shall
ensure that the title to such REO Property references the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and the Trust Fund's capacity thereunder. Pursuant to its efforts to
sell such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall either itself or through an
agent selected by the Master Servicer protect and conserve such REO Property in
the same manner and to such extent as is customary in the locality where such
REO Property is located and may, incident to its conservation and protection of
the interests of the Certificateholders, rent the same, or any part thereof, as
the Master Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders
for the period prior to the sale of such REO Property. The Master Servicer shall
prepare for and deliver to the Trustee a statement with respect to each REO
Property that has been rented showing the aggregate rental income received and
all expenses incurred in connection with the management and maintenance of such
REO Property at such times as is necessary to enable the Trustee to comply with
the reporting requirements of the REMIC Provisions. The net monthly rental
income, if any, from such REO Property shall be deposited in the Certificate
Account no later than the close of business on each Determination Date. The

                                       56

<PAGE>

Master Servicer shall perform the tax reporting and withholding required by
Sections 1445 and 6050J of the Code with respect to foreclosures and
abandonments, the tax reporting required by Section 6050H of the Code with
respect to the receipt of mortgage interest from individuals and any tax
reporting required by Section 6050P of the Code with respect to the cancellation
of indebtedness by certain financial entities, by preparing such tax and
information returns as may be required, in the form required, and delivering the
same to the Trustee for filing.

     In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any Mortgaged Property as
aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged Property
prior to the close of the third taxable year after the taxable year of its
acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Trustee shall have been supplied with
an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such
Mortgaged Property subsequent to such three-year period will not result in the
imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of the REMIC hereunder as
defined in Section 860F of the Code or cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail
to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding, in
which case the Trust Fund may continue to hold such Mortgaged Property (subject
to any conditions contained in such Opinion of Counsel). Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, no Mortgaged Property acquired by the Trust
Fund shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used for
the production of income by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or
pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause such Mortgaged Property to fail to
qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of
the Code or (ii) subject the REMIC hereunder to the imposition of any federal,
state or local income taxes on the income earned from such Mortgaged Property
under Section 860G(c) of the Code or otherwise, unless the Master Servicer has
agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund with respect to the
imposition of any such taxes.

     In the event of a default on a Mortgage Loan one or more of whose obligor
is not a United States Person, as that term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of
the Code, in connection with any foreclosure or acquisition of a deed in lieu of
foreclosure (together, "foreclosure") in respect of such Mortgage Loan, the
Master Servicer will cause compliance with the provisions of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.1445-2(d)(3) (or any successor thereto) necessary to assure that no
withholding tax obligation arises with respect to the proceeds of such
foreclosure except to the extent, if any, that proceeds of such foreclosure are
required to be remitted to the obligors on such Mortgage Loan.

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

                                       57

<PAGE>

the related Mortgage Loan for such calendar month, such excess shall be
considered to be a partial prepayment of principal of the related Mortgage Loan.

     The proceeds from any liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, as well as any income
from an REO Property, will be applied in the following order of priority: first,
to reimburse the Master Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances
and Master Servicing Fees; second, to reimburse the Master Servicer for any
unreimbursed Advances; third, to reimburse the applicable subaccount of the
Certificate Account for any Nonrecoverable Advances (or portions thereof) that
were previously withdrawn by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.8(a)(iii)
that related to such Mortgage Loan; fourth, to accrued and unpaid interest (to
the extent no Advance has been made for such amount or any such Advance has been
reimbursed) on the Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, at the Adjusted Net
Mortgage Rate to the Due Date occurring in the month in which such amounts are
required to be distributed; and fifth, as a recovery of principal of the
Mortgage Loan. Excess Proceeds, if any, from the liquidation of a Liquidated
Mortgage Loan will be retained by the Master Servicer as additional servicing
compensation pursuant to Section 3.14.

     The Master Servicer, with the consent of the Trustee, shall have the right
to purchase for its own account from the Trust Fund any Mortgage Loan which is
91 days or more delinquent at a price equal to the Purchase Price. The Purchase
Price for any Mortgage Loan purchased hereunder shall be deposited in the
applicable subaccount of the Certificate Account and the Trustee, upon receipt
of a certificate from the Master Servicer in the form of Exhibit M hereto, shall
release or cause to be released to the purchaser of such Mortgage Loan the
related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer
or assignment prepared by the purchaser of such Mortgage Loan, in each case
without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the purchaser of such
Mortgage Loan any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and the purchaser of
such Mortgage Loan shall succeed to all the Trustee's right, title and interest
in and to such Mortgage Loan and all security and documents related thereto.
Such assignment shall be an assignment outright and not for security. The
purchaser of such Mortgage Loan shall thereupon own such Mortgage Loan, and all
security and documents, free of any further obligation to the Trustee or the
Certificateholders with respect thereto.

          SECTION 3.12 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.

     Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Master
Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner
customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer will immediately notify the
Trustee by delivering, or causing to be delivered a "Request for Release"
substantially in the form of Exhibit M. Upon receipt of such request, the
Trustee shall or shall cause the Custodian to promptly release the related
Mortgage File to the Master Servicer, and the Trustee shall at the Master
Servicer's direction execute and deliver to the Master Servicer the request for
reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or release or satisfaction of mortgage or
such instrument releasing the lien of the Mortgage in each case provided by the
Master Servicer, together with the Mortgage Note with written evidence of
cancellation thereon. Expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of
satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the related
Mortgagor. From time to time and as shall be appropriate for the servicing or
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including for such purpose, collection under
any policy of flood insurance, any fidelity bond or errors or omissions policy,
or for the purposes

                                       58

<PAGE>

of effecting a partial release of any Mortgaged Property from the lien of the
Mortgage or the making of any corrections to the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage
or any of the other documents included in the Mortgage File, the Trustee shall,
upon delivery to the Trustee of a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit L
signed by a Servicing Officer, release the Mortgage File to the Master Servicer.
Subject to the further limitations set forth below, the Master Servicer shall
cause the Mortgage File or documents so released to be returned to the Trustee
or its Custodian when the need therefor by the Master Servicer no longer exists,
unless the Mortgage Loan is liquidated and the proceeds thereof are deposited in
the applicable subaccount of the Certificate Account, in which case the Master
Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee a Request for Release in the form of
Exhibit M, signed by a Servicing Officer.

     If the Master Servicer at any time seeks to initiate a foreclosure
proceeding in respect of any Mortgaged Property as authorized by this Agreement,
the Master Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee, for
signature, as appropriate, any court pleadings, requests for trustee's sale or
other documents necessary to effectuate such foreclosure or any legal action
brought to obtain judgment against the Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or the
Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment or to enforce any other remedies or
rights provided by the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or otherwise available at
law or in equity.

          SECTION 3.13 Documents Records and Funds in Possession of Master
     Servicer to be Held for the Trustee.

     Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Master Servicer
shall transmit to the Trustee as required by this Agreement all documents and
instruments in respect of a Mortgage Loan coming into the possession of the
Master Servicer from time to time and shall account fully to the Trustee for any
funds received by the Master Servicer or which otherwise are collected by the
Master Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in respect of any
Mortgage Loan. All Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the
control of, the Master Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether from
the collection of principal and interest payments or from Liquidation Proceeds,
including but not limited to, any funds on deposit in the Certificate Account,
shall be held by the Master Servicer for and on behalf of the Trustee and shall

interest, judgment, levy, writ of attachment or other encumbrance, or assert by
legal action or otherwise any claim or right of setoff against any Mortgage File
or any funds collected on, or in connection with, a Mortgage Loan, except,
however, that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to set off against and
deduct from any such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to the
Master Servicer under this Agreement.

capacity and shall not be payable to the Trustee or any successor to the Master
Servicer. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by
it in connection with its master servicing activities hereunder (including

without charge, but only upon reasonable and prior written request and during
normal business hours at the offices designated by the Master Servicer. Nothing
in this Section shall limit the obligation of the Master Servicer to observe any
applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Mortgagors
and the failure of the Master Servicer to provide access as provided in this
Section as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this
Section.

          SECTION 3.16 Annual Statement as to Compliance.

     The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor and the Trustee on or
before 120 days after the end of the Master Servicer's fiscal year, commencing

preceding calendar year and of the performance of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement has been made under such officer's supervision and (ii) to the best of
such officer's knowledge, based on such review, the Master Servicer has
fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement throughout such year, or, if
there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying

          SECTION 3.17 Annual Independent Public Accountants' Servicing
     Statement; Financial Statements.

     On or before 120 days after the end of the Master Servicer's fiscal year,
commencing with its 2002 fiscal year, the Master Servicer at its expense shall
cause a nationally or regionally recognized firm of independent public
accountants (who may also render other services to the Master Servicer, the
Seller or any affiliate thereof) which is a member of the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants to furnish a statement to the Trustee and the
Depositor to the effect that-such firm has examined certain documents and
records relating to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement or
of mortgage loans under pooling and servicing agreements substantially similar
to this Agreement (such statement to have attached thereto a schedule setting
forth the pooling and servicing agreements covered thereby) and that, on the
basis of such examination, conducted substantially in compliance with the
Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers or the Audit Program for
Mortgages serviced for FNMA and FHLMC, such servicing has been conducted in
compliance with such pooling and servicing agreements except for such
significant exceptions or errors in records that, in the opinion of such firm,
the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers or the Audit Program
for Mortgages serviced for FNMA and FHLMC requires it to report. In rendering
such statement, such firm may rely, as to matters relating to direct servicing
of mortgage loans by Subservicers, upon comparable statements for examinations
conducted substantially in compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation
Program for Mortgage Bankers or the Audit Program for Mortgages serviced for
FNMA and FHLMC (rendered within one year of such statement) of independent
public accountants with respect to the related Subservicer. Copies of such
statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder upon request
at the Master Servicer's expense, provided such statement is delivered by the
Master Servicer to the Trustee.

          SECTION 3.18 Errors and Omissions Insurance; Fidelity Bonds.

     The Master Servicer shall for so long as it acts as master servicer under
this Agreement, obtain and maintain in force (a) a policy or policies of
insurance covering errors and omissions in the performance of its obligations as
Master Servicer hereunder and (b) a fidelity bond in respect of its officers,
employees and agents. Each such policy or policies and bond shall, together,
comply with the requirements from time to time of FNMA or FHLMC for persons
performing servicing for mortgage loans purchased by FNMA or FHLMC. In the event
that any such policy or bond ceases to be in effect, the Master Servicer shall
obtain a comparable replacement policy or bond from an insurer or issuer,
meeting the requirements set forth above as of the date of such replacement.

Certificate Account an amount equal to the Advance or (ii) make an appropriate

next Master Servicer Advance Date. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to be
reimbursed from the applicable subaccount of the Certificate Account for all

continue if such Mortgage Loan has been foreclosed or otherwise terminated and
the related Mortgaged Property has not been liquidated.

     The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee on the related Master
Servicer Advance Date an Officer's Certificate of a Servicing Officer indicating
the amount of any proposed Advance determined by the Master Servicer to be a

                         Certificates until the Class Certificate Balances of

               clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 4.2 on such Distribution

               reduce the respective Class Certificate Balances of the Class
               II-A-RU and Class II-A-RL Certificates.

          (d)  On and after the Cross-Over Date, the amount distributable to the

          (e)  If on any Distribution Date (i) the Class Certificate Balance of
               any Class of Subordinated Certificates (other than the Class of
               Subordinated Certificates with the highest priority of
               distribution) for which the related Class Prepayment Distribution
               Trigger was satisfied on such Distribution Date is reduced to
               zero and (ii) amounts distributable to such Class of Subordinated
               Certificates pursuant to clauses (2), (3) and (5) of the
               applicable Subordinated Optimal Principal Amount remain
               undistributed on such Distribution Date after all amounts
               otherwise distributable on such date pursuant to clauses (iv)
               through (ix) of Section 4.2(a) have been distributed, such
               amounts, to the extent of such Class' remaining Allocable Share,
               shall be distributed on such Distribution Date to the remaining
               Classes of Subordinated Certificates in the order of priority of
               payments described in Section 4.2(a).

          (f)  In the event that in any calendar month the Master Servicer
               recovers an amount (an "Unanticipated Recovery") in respect of
               principal of a Mortgage Loan which had previously been allocated
               as a Realized Loss to any Class of Certificates pursuant to
               Section 4.4, on the Distribution Date in the next succeeding
               calendar month the Trustee, shall withdraw from the Distribution
               Account and distribute to the Holders of each outstanding Class
               to which such Realized Loss had previously been allocated its
               share (determined as described in the succeeding paragraph) of
               such Unanticipated Recovery in an amount not to exceed the amount
               of such Realized Loss previously allocated to such Class. When
               the Class Certificate Balance of a Class of Certificates has been
               reduced to zero, the Holders of such Class shall not be entitled
               to any share of an Unanticipated Recovery, and such Unanticipated
               Recovery shall be allocated among all outstanding Classes of

                                       65

<PAGE>

               Certificates entitled thereto in accordance with the preceding
               sentence, subject to the remainder of this subsection (f). In the
               event that (i) any Unanticipated Recovery remains undistributed
               in accordance with the preceding sentence or (ii) the amount of
               an Unanticipated Recovery exceeds the amount of the Realized Loss
               previously allocated to any outstanding Classes with respect to
               the related Mortgage Loan, on the applicable Distribution Date
               the Trustee shall distribute to the Holders of all outstanding
               Classes of the related Certificates to which Realized Losses had
               previously been allocated and not reimbursed their pro rata share
               (determined as described below) of such excess in an amount not
               to exceed the aggregate amount of any Realized Loss previously
               allocated to such Class with respect to any other Mortgage Loan
               that has not been recovered in accordance with this subsection
               (f). Any distributions made pursuant to this subsection (f) shall
               not reduce the Class Certificate Balance of the related
               Certificate.

               For purposes of the preceding paragraph, the share of an
          Unanticipated Recovery allocable to any Class of Certificates with
          respect to a Mortgage Loan shall be based on its pro rata share (in
          proportion to the Class Certificate Balances thereof with respect to
          such Distribution Date) of the principal portion of any such Realized
          Loss previously allocated with respect to such Mortgage Loan (or
          Loans).

          (g)  On any Distribution Date on which any Certificate Group
               constitutes an Undercollateralized Group, all amounts otherwise
               distributable as principal on the Subordinated Certificates, in
               reverse order of priority (or, following the Cross-over Date,
               such other amounts described in the immediately following
               sentence), will be distributed as principal to the Senior
               Certificates of such Undercollateralized Group in accordance with
               the priorities set forth in Section 4.2(b), until the total Class
               Certificate Balance of such Senior Certificates equals the Pool
               Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Pool (such
               distribution, an "Undercollateralization Distribution"). In the
               event that the Senior Certificates of a Certificate Group
               constitute an Undercollateralized Group on any Distribution Date
               following the Cross-over Date, Undercollateralization
               Distributions will be made from the excess of the Available Funds
               for the Mortgage Pool not related to an Undercollateralized Group
               remaining after all required amounts for that distribution date
               have been distributed to the Senior Certificates of such other
               Certificate Group. In addition, the amount of any Net Interest
               Shortfalls with respect to any Undercollateralized Group on any
               Distribution Date (including any Net Interest Shortfalls for such
               Distribution Date) will be distributed to the Senior Certificates
               of such Undercollateralized Group prior to the payment of any
               Undercollateralization Distributions from amounts otherwise
               distributable as principal on the Subordinated Certificates, in
               reverse order of priority (or, following the Cross-over Date, as
               provided in the preceding sentence). Undercollateralization
               Distributions will not be made as described above if prior to
               giving effect to any distributions on such Distribution Date (a)
               the Subordinated Percentage for the related Certificate Group for
               such Distribution Date is greater than or equal to 5.00% and (b)
               the aggregate Pool Principal Balance of both Mortgage Pools
               delinquent 60 days or more (including for this purpose any such
               Mortgage Loans in foreclosure and Mortgage Loans with

                                       66

<PAGE>

          respect to which the related Mortgaged Property has been acquired by
          the Trust), averaged over the preceding six month period, as a
          percentage of the aggregate Class Certificate Balance of the
          Subordinated Certificates, is less than 100%. If Senior Certificates
          of each Certificate Group are Undercollateralized Groups, the
          distributions described above will be made in proportion to the amount
          by which the aggregate Class Certificate Balance of the Senior
          Certificates of each such Certificate Group exceeds the Pool Principal
          Balance of the related Mortgage Pool. All distributions described
          above will be made in accordance with the priorities set forth in
          Section 4.2(b).

          SECTION 4.3 Method of Distribution.

     (a)  All distributions with respect to each Class of Certificates on each
          Distribution Date shall be made pro rata among the outstanding
          Certificates of such Class, based on the Percentage Interest in such
          Class represented by each Certificate. Payments to the
          Certificateholders on each Distribution Date will be made by the
          Trustee to the Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date
          by check or money order mailed to a Certificateholder at the address
          appearing in the Certificate Register, or upon written request by such
          Certificateholder to the Trustee made not later than the applicable
          Record Date, by wire transfer to a U.S. depository institution
          acceptable to the Trustee, or by such other means of payment as such
          Certificateholder and the Trustee shall agree.

     (b)  Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be
          paid to the Depository, which shall credit the amount of such
          distribution to the accounts of its Depository Participants in
          accordance with its normal procedures. Each Depository Participant
          shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to the
          Certificate Owners that it represents and to each financial
          intermediary for which it acts as agent. Each such financial
          intermediary shall be responsible for disbursing funds to the
          Certificate Owners that it represents. All such credits and
          disbursements with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate are to be made
          by the Depository and the Depository Participants in accordance with
          the provisions of the applicable Certificates. Neither the Trustee nor
          the Master Servicer shall have any responsibility therefor except as
          otherwise provided by applicable law.

     (c)  The Trustee shall withhold or cause to be withheld such amounts as it
          reasonably determines are required by the Code (giving full effect to
          any exemptions from withholding and related certifications required to
          be furnished by Certificateholders or Certificate Owners and any
          reductions to withholding by virtue of any bilateral tax treaties and
          any applicable certification required to be furnished by
          Certificateholders or Certificate Owners with respect thereto) from
          distributions to be made to Non-U.S. Persons. If the Trustee
          reasonably determines that a more accurate determination of the amount
          required to be withheld for a distribution can be made within a
          reasonable period after the scheduled date for such distribution, it
          may hold such distribution in trust for a Holder of a Residual
          Certificate until such determination can be made. For the purposes of
          this paragraph, a "Non-U.S. Person" is (i) an individual other than a

                                       67

<PAGE>

          citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a partnership,
          corporation or entity treated as a partnership or corporation for U.S.
          federal income tax purposes not formed under the laws of the United
          States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia (unless, in the
          case of a partnership, Treasury regulations provide otherwise), (iii)
          any estate, the income of which is not subject to U.S. federal income
          taxation, regardless of source, and (iv) any trust, other than a trust
          that 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 the authority to control all substantial decisions of the
          trust.

          SECTION 4.4 Allocation of Losses.

     (a)  On or prior to each Determination Date, the Master Servicer shall
          determine the amount of any Realized Loss in respect of each Mortgage
          Loan that occurred during the immediately preceding calendar month.

     (b)  With respect to any Distribution Date, the principal portion of each
          Realized Loss (other than any Excess Loss) shall be allocated in the
          following order of priority:

          (i)    to the Class B-6 Certificates until the Class Certificate
                 Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

          (ii)   to the Class B-5 Certificates until the Class Certificate
                 Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

          (iii)  to the Class B-4 Certificates until the Class Certificate
                 Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

          (iv)   to the Class B-3 Certificates until the Class Certificate
                 Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

          (v)    to the Class B-2 Certificates until the Class Certificate
                 Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

          (vi)   to the Class B-1 Certificates until the Class Certificate
                 Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

          (vii)  to the Classes of Senior Certificates of the related
                 Certificate Group, pro rata, in accordance with their Class
                 Certificate Balances.

     (c)  With respect to any Distribution Date, the principal portion of any
          Excess Loss with respect to a Mortgage Pool (other than Excess
          Bankruptcy Losses attributable to Debt Service Reductions) shall be
          allocated pro rata to each Class of Certificates of the related
          Certificate Group based on their respective Class Certificate Balances
          (in the case of the Senior Certificates) or Apportioned Principal
          Balances (in the case of the Subordinated Certificates).

                                       68

<PAGE>

     (d)  Any Realized Losses allocated to a Class of Certificates pursuant to
          Section 4.4(b) or (c) shall be allocated among the Certificates of
          such Class in proportion to their respective Certificate Principal
          Balances. Any allocation of Realized Losses pursuant to this paragraph
          (d) shall be accomplished by reducing the Certificate Principal
          Balances of the related Certificates on the related Distribution Date
          in accordance with Section 4.4(e).

     (e)  Realized Losses allocated in accordance with this Section 4.4 shall be
          allocated on the Distribution Date in the month following the month in
          which such loss was incurred and, in the case of the principal portion
          thereof, after giving effect to the distributions made on such
          Distribution Date.

     (f)  On each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall determine the
          Subordinated Certificate Writedown Amount, if any. Any such
          Subordinated Certificate Writedown Amount shall effect, without
          duplication of any other provision in this Section 4.4 that provides
          for a reduction in the Class Certificate Balance of the Subordinated
          Certificates, a corresponding reduction in the Class Certificate
          Balance of the Subordinated Certificates, which reduction shall occur
          on such Distribution Date after giving effect to distributions made on
          such Distribution Date.

     (g)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such allocation of any Realized Loss
          shall be made on a Distribution Date to a Class of Certificates to the
          extent that such allocation would result in the reduction of the
          aggregate Certificate Principal Balances of all the Senior
          Certificates of a related Certificate Group as of such Distribution
          Date plus the Apportioned Principal Balances of the Subordinated
          Certificates of such Certificate Group as of such Distribution Date,
          after giving effect to all distributions and prior allocations of
          Realized Losses on such date, to an amount less than the aggregate
          Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related
          Mortgage Pool as of the first day of the month of such Distribution
          Date, less any Deficient Valuations occurring on or prior to the
          Bankruptcy Coverage Termination Date (such limitation, the "Loss
          Allocation Limitation").

          SECTION 4.5 Reserved.

          SECTION 4.6 Monthly Statements to Certificateholders.

     (a)  Not later than each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall prepare and
          cause to be forwarded by first class mail to each Certificateholder,
          the Master Servicer, the Depositor and each Rating Agency a statement
          setting forth with respect to the related distribution and/or may post
          such statement on its website located at www.mbsreporting.com:

          (i)  the amount thereof allocable to principal, separately identifying

                 Compensating Interest included in such distribution and any
                 remaining Net Interest Shortfalls after giving effect to such
                 distribution;

          (iii)  if the distribution to the Holders of such Class of
                 Certificates is less than the full amount that would be
                 distributable to such Holders if there were sufficient funds
                 available therefor, the amount of the shortfall and the
                 allocation thereof as between principal and interest;

          (iv)   the Class Certificate Balance of each Class of Certificates

                 Distribution Date;

          (v)    the Pool Principal Balance for each Mortgage Pool for the
                 following Distribution Date;

          (vi)   the Senior Percentage and Subordinated Percentage for each
                 Certificate Group for the following Distribution Date;

                 the Master Servicer with respect to such Distribution Date;

          (viii) the Pass-Through Rate for each such Class of Certificates with
                 respect to such Distribution Date;

                 distribution on such Distribution Date and the aggregate amount
                 of Advances for each Mortgage Pool outstanding as of the close
                 of business on such Distribution Date;

          (x)    the number and aggregate principal amounts of Mortgage Loans
                 (A) delinquent (exclusive of Mortgage Loans in foreclosure) (1)
                 1 to 30 days (2) 31 to 60 days (3) 61 to 90 days and (4) 91 or

          (xi)   with respect to any Mortgage Loan in a Mortgage Pool that
                 became an REO Property during the preceding calendar month, the
                 loan number and Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan
                 as of the close of business on the Determination Date preceding
                 such Distribution Date and the date of acquisition thereof;

          (xii)  the total number and principal balance of any REO Properties
                 (and market value, if available) in each Mortgage Pool as of

                 Distribution Date;

          (xiii) the Senior Prepayment Percentage for each Certificate Group for
                 the following Distribution Date;

(b)  The Trustee's responsibility for disbursing the above information to the
     Certificateholders is limited to the availability, timeliness and accuracy
     of the information provided by the Master Servicer.

(c)  On or before the fifth Business Day following the end of each Prepayment
     Period (but in no event later than the third Business Day prior to the
     related Distribution Date), the Master Servicer shall deliver to the
     Trustee (which delivery may be by electronic data transmission) a report in
     substantially the form set forth as Schedule III hereto.

(d)  Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, the
     Trustee shall cause to be furnished to each Person who at any time during
     the calendar year was a Certificateholder, a statement containing the
     information set forth in clauses (a)(i), (a)(ii) and (a)(vii) of this
     Section 4.6 aggregated for such calendar year or applicable portion thereof
     during which such Person was a Certificateholder. Such obligation of the
     Trustee shall be deemed to have been satisfied to the extent that
     substantially comparable information shall be provided by the Trustee
     pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from time to time in effect.

     SECTION 4.7 Determination of Pass-Through Rates for LIBOR Certificates.

(a)  On each Interest Determination Date so long as any LIBOR Certificates are
     outstanding, the Trustee will determine LIBOR on the basis of the British
     Bankers' Association ("BBA") "Interest Settlement Rate" for one-month
     deposits in U.S. dollars as found on Telerate page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m.
     London time on each LIBOR Determination Date. Interest Settlement Rates
     currently are based on rates quoted by sixteen BBA designated banks as
     being, in the view of such banks, the offered rate at which deposits are
     being quoted to prime banks in the London interbank market. Such Interest
     Settlement Rates are calculated by eliminating the four highest rates and
     the four lowest rates, averaging the eight remaining rates, carrying the
     result (expressed as a percentage) out to six decimal places, and rounding
     to five decimal places. "Telerate Page 3750" means the display page
     currently so designated on the Bridge Telerate Service (formerly the

                                       71

<PAGE>

            Dow Jones Markets) (or such other page as may replace that page on
            that service for the purpose of displaying comparable rates or
            prices.)

     (b)    If LIBOR cannot be determined as provided in paragraph (A) of this
            Section 4.07, the Trustee shall either (i) request each Reference
            Bank to inform the Trustee of the quotation offered by its principal
            London office for making one-month United States dollar deposits in
            leading banks in the London interbank market, as of 11:00 a.m.
            (London time) on such Interest Determination Date or (ii) in lieu of
            making any such request, rely on such Reference Bank quotations that
            appear at such time on the Reuters Screen LIBO Page (as defined in
            the International Swap Dealers Association Inc. Code of Standard
            Wording, Assumptions and Provisions for Swaps, 1986 Edition), to the
            extent available. LIBOR for the next Interest Accrual Period will be
            established by the Trustee on each interest Determination Date as
            follows:

            (i)     If on any interest Determination Date two or more Reference
                    Banks provide such offered quotations, LIBOR for the next
                    Interest Accrual Period shall be the arithmetic mean of such
                    offered quotations (rounding such arithmetic mean upwards if
                    necessary to the nearest whole multiple of 1/32%).

            (ii)    If on any Interest Determination Date only one or none of
                    the Reference Banks provides such offered quotations, LIBOR
                    for the next Interest Accrual Period shall be whichever is
                    the higher of (i) LIBOR as determined on the previous
                    Interest Determination Date or (ii) the Reserve Interest
                    Rate. The "Reserve Interest Rate" shall be the rate per
                    annum which the Trustee determines to be either (i) the
                    arithmetic mean (rounded upwards if necessary to the nearest
                    whole multiple of 1/32%) of the one-month United States
                    dollar lending rates that New York City banks selected by
                    the Trustee are quoting, on the relevant Interest
                    Determination Date, to the principal London offices of at
                    least two of the Reference Banks to which such quotations
                    are, in the opinion of the Trustee, being so made, or (ii)
                    in the event that the Trustee can determine no such
                    arithmetic mean, the lowest one-month United States dollar
                    lending rate which New York City banks selected by the
                    Trustee are quoting on such Interest Determination Date to
                    leading European banks.

            (iii)   If on any interest Determination Date the trustee is
                    required but is unable to determine the Reserve Interest
                    Rate in the manner provided in paragraph (b) above, LIBOR
                    shall be LIBOR as determined on the preceding Interest
                    Determination Date.

     Until all of the LIBOR Certificates are paid in full, the Trustee will at
all times retain at least four Reference Banks for the purpose of determining
LIBOR with respect to each Interest Determination Date. The Master Servicer
shall designate the Reference Banks. Each "Reference Bank" shall be a leading
bank engaged in transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the

                                       72

<PAGE>

international Eurocurrency market, shall not control, be controlled by, or be
under common control with, the Trustee and shall have an established place of
business in London. If any such Reference Bank should be unwilling or unable to
act as such or if the Master Servicer should terminate its appointment as
Reference Bank, the Master Servicer shall promptly appoint or cause to be
appointed another Reference Bank. The Trustee shall have no liability or
responsibility to any Person for (i) the selection of any Reference Bank for
purposes of determining LIBOR or (ii) any inability to retain at least four
Reference Banks which is caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control.

     (c)    The Pass-Through Rate for each Class of LIBOR Certificates for each
            Interest Accrual Period shall be determined by the Trustee on each
            Interest Determination Date so long as the LIBOR Certificates are
            outstanding on the basis of LIBOR and the respective formulae
            appearing in footnotes corresponding to the LIBOR Certificates in
            the table relating to the Certificates in the Preliminary Statement.

     In determining LIBOR, any Pass-Through Rate for the LIBOR Certificates, any
Interest Settlement Rate, or any Reserve Interest Rate, the Trustee may
conclusively rely and shall be protected in relying upon the offered quotations
(whether written, oral or on the Dow Jones Markets) from the BBA designated
banks, the Reference Banks or the New York City banks as to LIBOR, the Interest
Settlement Rate or the Reserve Interest Rate, as appropriate, in effect from
time to time. The Trustee shall not have any liability or responsibility to any
Person for (i) the Trustee's selection of New York City banks for purposes of
determining any Reserve Interest Rate or (ii) its inability, following a
good-faith reasonable effort, to obtain such quotations from, the BBA designated
banks, the Reference Banks or the New York City banks or to determine such
arithmetic mean, all as provided for in this Section 4.07.

     The establishment of LIBOR and each Pass-Through Rate for the LIBOR
Certificates by the Trustee shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final,
conclusive and binding upon each Holder of a Certificate and the Trustee.

                                    ARTICLE V
                                THE CERTIFICATES

          SECTION 5.1 The Certificates.

     The Certificates shall be substantially in the forms attached hereto as
exhibits. The Certificates shall be issuable in registered form, in the minimum
denominations, integral multiples in excess thereof (except that one Certificate
in each Class may be issued in a different amount which must be in excess of the
applicable minimum denomination) and aggregate denominations per Class set forth
in the Preliminary Statement.

     Subject to Section 9.2 hereof respecting the final distribution on the
Certificates, on each Distribution Date the Trustee shall make distributions to
each Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date either (x) by wire
transfer in immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank
or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if (i) such Holder has
so notified the Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the related Record
Date and (ii) such Holder shall hold (A) 100% of the Class Certificate Balance
of any Class of Certificates or

                                       73

<PAGE>

(B) Certificates of any Class with aggregate principal Denominations of not less
than $1,000,000 or (y) by check mailed by first class mail to such
Certificateholder at the address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate
Register.

     The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on
behalf of the Trustee by an authorized officer. Certificates bearing the manual
or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such
signatures were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trustee shall bind
the Trustee, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to
be so authorized prior to the countersignature and delivery of such Certificates
or did not hold such offices at the date of such Certificate. No Certificate
shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any
purpose, unless countersigned by the Trustee by manual signature, and such
countersignature upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Certificate has been duly executed and delivered hereunder.
All Certificates shall be dated the date of their countersignature. On the
Closing Date, the Trustee shall countersign the Certificates to be issued at the
direction of the Depositor, or any affiliate thereof.

     The Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Trustee on a
continuous basis, an adequate inventory of Certificates to facilitate transfers.

            SECTION 5.2 Certificate Register; Registration of Transfer and
     Exchange of Certificates.

     (a)    The Trustee shall maintain, or cause to be maintained in accordance
            with the provisions of Section 5.6 hereof, a Certificate Register
            for the Trust Fund in which, subject to the provisions of
            subsections (b) and (c) below and to such reasonable regulations as
            it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration of
            Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as
            herein provided. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any
            Certificate, the Trustee shall execute and deliver, in the name of
            the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new
            Certificates of the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest.

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

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

                                       74

<PAGE>

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

     (b)    No transfer of a Private Certificate shall be made unless such
            transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement
            under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or
            is exempt from the registration requirements under said Act and such
            state securities laws. In the event that a transfer is to be made in
            reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act and such laws, in
            order to assure compliance with the Securities Act and such laws,
            the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer and such
            Certificateholder's prospective transferee shall each certify to the
            Trustee in writing the facts surrounding the transfer in
            substantially the forms set forth in Exhibit I (the "Transferor
            Certificate") and (i) deliver a letter in substantially the form of
            either Exhibit J (the "Investment Letter") or Exhibit K (the "Rule
            144A Letter") or (ii) there shall be delivered to the Trustee at the
            expense of the transferor an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer
            may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act. The
            Depositor shall provide to any Holder of a Private Certificate and
            any prospective transferee designated by any such Holder,
            information regarding the related Certificates and the Mortgage
            Loans and such other information as shall be necessary to satisfy
            the condition to eligibility set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) for
            transfer of any such Certificate without registration thereof under
            the Securities Act pursuant to the registration exemption provided
            by Rule 144A. The Trustee and the Master Servicer shall cooperate
            with the Depositor in providing the Rule 144A information referenced
            in the preceding sentence, including providing to the Depositor such
            information regarding the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans and other
            matters regarding the Trust Fund as the Depositor shall reasonably
            request to meet its obligation under the preceding sentence. Each
            Holder of a Private Certificate desiring to effect such transfer
            shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee and the
            Depositor, the Seller and the Master Servicer against any liability
            that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in
            accordance with such federal and state laws.

            No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate shall be made unless
     the Trustee shall have received either (i) a representation from the
     transferee of such Certificate acceptable to and in form and substance
     satisfactory to the Trustee (in the event such Certificate is a Private
     Certificate, such requirement is satisfied only by the Trustee's receipt of
     a representation letter from the transferee substantially in the form of
     Exhibit J or Exhibit K), to the effect that such transferee is not an
     employee benefit plan or arrangement subject to Section 406 of ERISA or a
     plan or arrangement subject to Section 4975 of the Code, nor a person
     acting on behalf of any such plan or arrangement, nor using the assets of
     any such plan or arrangement to effect such transfer, (ii) in the case of a
     Private Certificate or a Residual Certificate, if the purchaser is an
     insurance company, a representation that the purchaser is an insurance
     company which is purchasing such Certificates with funds contained in an
     "insurance company general account" (as such term is defined in Section
     V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 ("PTCE 95-60")) and
     that the purchase and holding of such Certificates are covered under PTCE

                                       75

<PAGE>

     95-60 or (iii) in the case of any such ERISA-Restricted Certificate
     presented for registration in the name of an employee benefit plan subject
     to ERISA, or a plan or arrangement subject to Section 4975 of the Code (or
     comparable provisions of any subsequent enactments), or a trustee of any
     such plan or any other person acting on behalf of any such plan or
     arrangement, or using such plan's or arrangement's assets, an Opinion of
     Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be
     an expense of either the Trustee or the Trust Fund, addressed to the
     Trustee to the effect that the purchase or holding of such ERISA-Restricted
     Certificate will not result in the assets of the Trust Fund being deemed to
     be "plan assets" and subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of
     ERISA and the Code and will not subject the Trustee to any obligation in
     addition to those expressly undertaken in this Agreement or to any
     liability. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, any
     purported transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate to or on behalf of an
     employee benefit plan subject to ERISA or to the Code without the delivery
     to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee as
     described above shall be void and of no effect.

            To the extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not
     limited to, ERISA), the Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person
     for any registration of transfer of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that
     is in fact not permitted by this Section 5.2(b) or for making any payments
     due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action
     with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long
     as the transfer was registered by the Trustee in accordance with the
     foregoing requirements.

     (c)    Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a
            Residual Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or
            acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by
            the following provisions, and the rights of each Person acquiring
            any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly
            subject to the following provisions:

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

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

            (iii)   Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
                    Residual Certificate shall agree (A) to obtain a Transfer
                    Affidavit from any other Person to whom such Person attempts
                    to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual
                    Certificate, (B) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit from any
                    Person

                                       76

<PAGE>

                    for whom such Person is acting as nominee, trustee or agent
                    in connection with any Transfer of a Residual Certificate
                    and (C) not to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual
                    Certificate or to cause the Transfer of an Ownership
                    Interest in a Residual Certificate to any other Person if it
                    has actual knowledge that such Person is not a Permitted
                    Transferee.

            (iv)    Any attempted or purported Transfer of any Ownership
                    Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the
                    provisions of this Section 5.2(c) shall be absolutely null
                    and void and shall vest no rights in the purported
                    Transferee. If any purported transferee shall become a
                    Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the
                    provisions of this Section 5.2(c), then the last preceding
                    Permitted Transferee shall be restored to all rights as
                    Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of
                    Transfer of such Residual Certificate. The Trustee shall be
                    under no liability to any Person for any registration of
                    Transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not
                    permitted by Section 5.2(b) and this Section 5.2(c) or for
                    making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder
                    thereof or taking any other action with respect to such
                    Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the
                    Transfer was registered after receipt of the related
                    Transfer Affidavit, Transferor Certificate and, in the case
                    of a Residual Certificate which is also a Private
                    Certificate, either the Rule 144A Letter or the Investment
                    Letter. The Trustee shall be entitled but not obligated to
                    recover from any Holder of a Residual Certificate that was
                    in fact not a Permitted Transferee at the time it became a
                    Holder or, at such subsequent time as it became other than a
                    Permitted Transferee, all payments made on such Residual
                    Certificate at and after either such time. Any such payments
                    so recovered by the Trustee shall be paid and delivered by
                    the Trustee to the last preceding Permitted Transferee of
                    such Certificate.

            (v)     The Depositor shall use its best efforts to make available,
                    upon receipt of written request from the Trustee, all
                    information necessary to compute any tax imposed under
                    Section 860E(e) of the Code as a result of a Transfer of an
                    Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any Holder
                    who is not a Permitted Transferee.

            The restrictions on Transfers of a Residual Certificate set forth in
this Section 5.2(c) shall cease to apply (and the applicable portions of the
legend on a Residual Certificate may be deleted) with respect to Transfers
occurring after delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel, which Opinion
of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Seller or
the Master Servicer, to the effect that the elimination of such restrictions
will not cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any
time that the Certificates are outstanding or result in the imposition of any
tax on the Trust Fund, a Certificateholder or another Person. Each Person
holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate hereby
consents to any amendment of this Agreement which, based on an Opinion of
Counsel furnished to the Trustee, is reasonably necessary (a) to ensure that the
record ownership of, or any beneficial interest in, a Residual Certificate is
not transferred, directly or

                                       77

<PAGE>

     indirectly, to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee and (b) to
     provide for a means to compel the Transfer of a Residual Certificate which
     is held by a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee to a Holder that is
     a Permitted Transferee.

     (d)    The preparation and delivery of all certificates and opinions
            referred to above in this Section 5.2 in connection with transfer
            shall be at the expense of the parties to such transfers.

     (e)    Except as provided below, the Book-Entry Certificates shall at all
            times remain registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee
            and at all times: (i) registration of the Certificates may not be
            transferred by the Trustee except to another Depository; (ii) the
            Depository shall maintain book-entry records with respect to the
            Certificate Owners and with respect to ownership and transfers of
            such Book-Entry Certificates; (iii) ownership and transfers of
            registration of the Book-Entry Certificates on the books of the
            Depository shall be governed by applicable rules established by the
            Depository; (iv) the Depository may collect its usual and customary
            fees, charges and expenses from its Depository Participants; (v) the
            Trustee shall deal with the Depository, Depository Participants and
            indirect participating firms as representatives of the Certificate
            Owners of the Book-Entry Certificates for purposes of exercising the
            rights of holders under this Agreement, and requests and directions
            for and votes of such representatives shall not be deemed to be
            inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate
            Owners; and (vi) the Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected
            in relying upon information furnished by the Depository with respect
            to its Depository Participants and furnished by the Depository
            Participants with respect to indirect participating firms and
            persons shown on the books of such indirect participating firms as
            direct or indirect Certificate Owners.

            All transfers by Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates shall
     be made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository
     Participant or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owner. Each
     Depository Participant shall only transfer Book-Entry Certificates of
     Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as
     agent in accordance with the Depository's normal procedures.

            If (x) (i) the Depository or the Depositor advises the Trustee in
     writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly
     discharge its responsibilities as Depository, and (ii) the Trustee or the
     Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor, (y) the Depositor at
     its option advises the Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the
     book-entry system through the Depository or (z) after the occurrence of an
     Event of Default, Certificate Owners representing at least 51% of the Class
     Certificate Balance of the Book-Entry Certificates together advise the
     Trustee and the Depository through the Depository Participants in writing
     that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Depository is no
     longer in the best interests of the Certificate Owners, the Trustee shall
     notify all Certificate Owners, through the Depository, of the occurrence of
     any such event and of the availability of definitive, fully-registered
     Certificates (the "Definitive Certificates") to Certificate Owners
     requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Trustee of the related Class of
     Certificates by the Depository, accompanied by the instructions

                                       78

<PAGE>

     from the Depository for registration, the Trustee shall issue the
     Definitive Certificates. Neither the Master Servicer, the Depositor nor the
     Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instruction and
     each may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such
     instructions. The Master Servicer shall provide the Trustee with an
     adequate inventory of certificates to facilitate the issuance and transfer
     of Definitive Certificates. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates
     all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the
     Depository 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; provided that the Trustee shall not by virtue
     of its assumption of such obligations become liable to any party for any
     act or failure to act of the Depository.

          SECTION 5.3 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.

     If (a) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee, or the
Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft
of any Certificate and (b) there is delivered to the Master Servicer and the
Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of
them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee that such
Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Trustee shall
execute, countersign and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like
Class, tenor and Percentage Interest. In connection with the issuance of any new
Certificate under this Section 5.3, the Trustee may require the payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the
Trustee) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to
this Section 5.3 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of
ownership, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed
Certificate shall be found at any time.

          SECTION 5.4 Persons Deemed Owners.

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

          SECTION 5.5 Access to List of Certificateholders' Names and Addresses.

     If three or more Certificateholders (a) request such information in writing
from the Trustee, (b) state that such Certificateholders desire to communicate
with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Agreement
or under the Certificates, and (c) provide a copy of the communication which
such Certificateholders propose to transmit, or if the Depositor or Master
Servicer shall request such information in writing from the Trustee, then the
Trustee shall, within ten Business Days after the receipt of such request,
provide the Depositor, the Master Servicer or such Certificateholders at such
recipients' expense the most recent list of the Certificateholders of such Trust
Fund held by the Trustee, if any. The Depositor

                                       79

<PAGE>

and every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agree that
the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any
such information as to the list of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless
of the source from which such information was derived.

          SECTION 5.6 Maintenance of Office or Agency.

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

                                   ARTICLE VI
                      THE DEPOSITOR AND THE MASTER SERVICER

          SECTION 6.1 Respective Liabilities of the Depositor and the Master
     Servicer.

     The Depositor and the Master Servicer shall each be liable in accordance
herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically and respectively
imposed upon and undertaken by them herein.

          SECTION 6.2 Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor or the Master
     Servicer.

     The Depositor and the Master Servicer will each keep in full effect its
existence, rights and franchises as a corporation under the laws of the United
States or under the laws of one of the states thereof and will each obtain and
preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each
jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the
validity and enforceability of this Agreement, or any of the Mortgage Loans and
to perform its respective duties under this Agreement.

     Any Person into which the Depositor or the Master Servicer may be merged or
consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which
the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be a party, or any person succeeding
to the business of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, shall be the successor
of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder, without
the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of
the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided,
however, that the successor or surviving Person to the Master Servicer shall be
qualified to sell mortgage loans to, and to service mortgage loans on behalf of,
FNMA or FHLMC.

          SECTION 6.3 Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the Master
     Servicer and Others.

     None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any of the directors,
officers, employees or agents of the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be
under any liability to the Certificateholders for any action taken or for
refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this
Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision
shall not protect the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any such Person against
any breach of representations or warranties made by it herein or protect the
Depositor, the Master

                                       80

Servicer or any such Person from any liability which would otherwise be imposed
by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the
performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and
duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Depositor or 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 Depositor, the Master
Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the
Seller or the Master Servicer shall be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held
harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any
audit, controversy or judicial proceeding relating to a governmental taxing
authority or any legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates,
other than any loss, liability or expense related to any specific Mortgage Loan
or Mortgage Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be
otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) and any loss, liability or
expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence
in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of
obligations and duties hereunder. Neither the Depositor or the Master Servicer
shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action
that is not incidental to its respective duties hereunder and which in its
opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that
either the Depositor or the Master Servicer may in its discretion undertake any
such action that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement
and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and interests of the Trustee and
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 Depositor and the Master Servicer shall
be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of the applicable subaccount of the
Certificate Account.

          SECTION 6.4 Limitation on Resignation of Master Servicer.

     The Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby
imposed on it except (a) upon appointment of a successor servicer and receipt by
the Trustee of a letter from each Rating Agency that such a resignation and
appointment will not result in a downgrading of the rating of any of the
Certificates, or (b) upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer
permissible under applicable law. Any such determination under clause (b)
permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Trustee. No such resignation
shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor master servicer shall
have assumed the Master Servicer's responsibilities, duties, liabilities and
obligations hereunder.

                                   ARTICLE VII
                                     DEFAULT

          SECTION 7.1 Events of Default.

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

          (i)  any failure by the Master Servicer to deposit in the applicable
               subaccount of the Certificate Account or remit to the Trustee any
               payment required to be made under the terms of this Agreement,
               which failure shall continue

                                       81

<PAGE>

                  unremedied for five days after the date upon which written
                  notice of such failure shall have been given to the Master
                  Servicer by the Trustee or the Depositor or to the Master
                  Servicer and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates having
                  not less than 25% of the Voting Rights evidenced by the
                  Certificates; or

          (ii)    any failure by the Master Servicer to observe or perform in
                  any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements
                  on the part of the Master Servicer contained in this
                  Agreement, which failure materially affects the rights of
                  Certificateholders, which failure continues unremedied for a
                  period of 60 days after the date on which written notice of
                  such failure shall have been given to the Master Servicer by
                  the Trustee or the Depositor, or to the Master Servicer and
                  the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less
                  than 25% of the Voting Rights evidenced by the Certificates;
                  provided, however, that the 60-day cure period shall not apply
                  to the initial delivery of the Mortgage File for Delay
                  Delivery Mortgage Loans nor the failure to substitute or
                  repurchase in lieu thereof; or

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

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

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

     If an Event of Default described in clauses (i) to (v) of this Section
shall occur, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Event of
Default shall not have been remedied, the Trustee may, or at the direction of
the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Voting
Rights evidenced by the Certificates, the Trustee shall by notice in writing to
the Master Servicer (with a copy to each Rating Agency), terminate all of the
rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to
the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof, other than its rights as a
Certificateholder hereunder. On and after the receipt by the Master Servicer of
such written notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer hereunder,
whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be
vested in the

                                       82

<PAGE>

Trustee. The Trustee, in its capacity as successor to the Master Servicer, shall
thereupon make any Advance which the Master Servicer failed to make subject to
Section 4.1 hereof. The Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute
and deliver, on behalf of the 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. Unless expressly
provided in such written notice, no such termination shall affect any obligation
of the Master Servicer to pay amounts owed pursuant to Article VIII. The Master
Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of
the Master Servicer's responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without
limitation, the transfer to the Trustee of all cash amounts which shall at the
time be credited to the Certificate Account, or thereafter be received with
respect to the Mortgage Loans. All expenses incurred in the transferring of the
servicing duties from the Master Servicer to a Successor Servicer shall be paid
by the Master Servicer, and if not paid by the Master Servicer, shall be paid
from amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account.

     Notwithstanding any termination of the activities of the Master Servicer
hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive, out of any late
collection of a Scheduled Payment on a Mortgage Loan which was due prior to the
notice terminating such Master Servicer's rights and obligations as Master
Servicer hereunder and received after such notice, that portion thereof to which
such Master Servicer would have been entitled pursuant to Sections 3.8(a)(i)
through (viii),and any other amounts payable to such Master Servicer hereunder
the entitlement to which arose prior to the termination of its activities
hereunder.

          SECTION 7.2 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.

     On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of termination
pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof, the Trustee shall, subject to and to the extent
provided in Section 3.4, be the successor to the Master Servicer under this
Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be
subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto
placed on the Master Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof and applicable
law including the obligation to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.1. As
compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to all funds relating to
the Mortgage Loans that the Master Servicer would have been entitled to charge
to the Certificate Account or Distribution Account if the Master Servicer had
continued to act hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee has
become the successor to the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 7.1
hereof, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is
prohibited by applicable law from making Advances pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof
or if it is otherwise unable to so act, appoint, or petition a court of
competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established mortgage loan servicing
institution the appointment of which does not adversely affect the then current
rating of the Certificates by each Rating Agency as the successor to the Master
Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities,
duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder. Any successor to the
Master Servicer shall be an institution which is a FNMA and FHLMC approved
seller/servicer in good standing, which has a net worth of at least $10,000,000,
and which is willing to service the Mortgage Loans and executes and delivers to
the Depositor and the Trustee an agreement accepting such delegation and
assignment, which contains an assumption by such Person of the rights, powers,
duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Master

                                       83

<PAGE>

Servicer (other than liabilities of the Master Servicer under Section 6.3 hereof
incurred prior to termination of the Master Servicer under Section 7.1), with
like effect as if originally named as a party to this Agreement; and provided
further that each Rating Agency acknowledges that its rating of the Certificates
in effect immediately prior to such assignment and delegation will not be
qualified or reduced, as a result of such assignment and delegation. Pending
appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer hereunder, the Trustee, unless
the Trustee is prohibited by law from so acting, shall, subject to Section 3.4
hereof, act in such capacity as provided above. 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 the Master Servicing Fee permitted the Master Servicer hereunder. The
Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this
Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. Neither the
Trustee nor any other successor master servicer shall be deemed to be in default
hereunder by reason of any failure to make, or any delay in making, any
distribution hereunder or any portion thereof or any failure to perform, or any
delay in performing, any duties or responsibilities hereunder, in either case
caused by the failure of the Master Servicer to deliver or provide, or any delay
in delivering or providing, any cash, information, documents or records to it.

     Any successor to the Master Servicer as master servicer shall give notice
to the Mortgagors of such change of servicer and shall, during the term of its
service as master servicer maintain in force the policy or policies that the
Master Servicer is required to maintain pursuant to Section 6.5.

          SECTION 7.3 Notification to Certificateholders.

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

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

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                             CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

          SECTION 8.1 Duties of Trustee.

     The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default of which a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge and after the curing of
all Events of Default that may have occurred, shall undertake to perform such
duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. In
case an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has
actual knowledge has occurred and remains uncured, 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

                                       84

<PAGE>

in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

     The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements,
opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the
Trustee that 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. If any such
instrument is found not to conform in any material respect to the requirements
of this Agreement, the Trustee shall notify the Certificateholders of such
instrument in the event that the Trustee, after so requesting, does not receive
a satisfactorily corrected instrument.

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

          (i)     unless an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of
                  the Trustee has actual knowledge shall have occurred and be
                  continuing, the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be
                  determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement,
                  the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of
                  such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in
                  this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be
                  read into this Agreement against the Trustee and the Trustee
                  may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and
                  the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any
                  certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and
                  conforming to the requirements of this Agreement which it
                  believed in good faith to be genuine and to have been duly
                  executed by the proper authorities respecting any matters
                  arising hereunder;

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

          (iii)   the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
                  taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in
                  accordance with the direction of Holders of Certificates
                  evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights of
                  Certificates relating 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;

          (iv)    the Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own
                  funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the
                  performance of any of its duties hereunder or 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 assured to it,
                  and

                                       85

<PAGE>

                  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 under this Agreement except during such
                  time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to, and be
                  vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the
                  Master Servicer; and

          (v)     without limiting the generality of this Section 8.1, 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 deposit 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 Distribution Account (D) to
                  confirm or verify the contents of any reports or certificates
                  of the 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 8.2 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.

     Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.1:

          (i)     the Trustee may request and rely upon and shall be protected
                  in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution,
                  Officers' Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other
                  certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,
                  request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper or
                  document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed
                  or presented by the proper party or parties and the Trustee
                  shall have no responsibility to ascertain or confirm the
                  genuineness of any signature of any such party or parties;

          (ii)    the Trustee may consult with counsel, financial advisers or
                  accountants and the advice of any such counsel, financial
                  advisers or accountants and any 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 Opinion of Counsel;

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

          (iv)    the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into
                  the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate,
                  statement, instrument, opinion,

                                       86

<PAGE>

                  report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or
                  other paper or document, unless requested in writing so to do
                  by Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the
                  Voting Rights allocated to 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 assured
                  to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of
                  this Agreement, the Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory
                  to the Trustee against such cost, expense or liability as a
                  condition to taking any such action. The reasonable expense of
                  every such examination shall be paid by the Master Servicer
                  or, if paid by the Trustee, shall be repaid by the Master
                  Servicer upon demand from the Servicer's own funds.

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

          (vi)    the Trustee shall not be required to risk or expend its own
                  funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the
                  performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of
                  its rights or powers hereunder if it shall have reasonable
                  grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate
                  indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured to it;

          (vii)   the Trustee shall not be liable for any loss on any investment
                  of funds pursuant to this Agreement (other than as issuer of
                  the investment security);

          (viii)  the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of an Event
                  of Default until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall
                  have received written notice thereof and in the absence of
                  such notice, the Trustee may conclusively assume that there is
                  no Event of Default;

          (ix)    the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of
                  the trusts, rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement or
                  to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in
                  relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any of
                  the Certificateholders, pursuant to the provisions of this
                  Agreement, unless such Certificateholders shall have offered
                  to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory
                  to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities
                  which may be incurred therein or thereby;

          (x)     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

                                       87

<PAGE>

          (xi)    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 8.3 Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.

     The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates shall be taken as the
statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their
correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or
sufficiency of this Agreement or of the Certificates or of any Mortgage Loan or
related document other than with respect to the Trustee's execution and
counter-signature of the Certificates. The Trustee shall not be accountable for
the use or application by the Depositor or the Master Servicer of any funds paid
to the Depositor or the Master Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or
deposited in or withdrawn from the Certificate Account by the Depositor or the
Master Servicer.

          SECTION 8.4 Trustee May Own Certificates.

     The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or
pledgee of Certificates with the same rights as it would have if it were not the
Trustee.

          SECTION 8.5 Trustee's Fees and Expenses.

     The Trustee, as compensation for its activities prior to making the
distributions pursuant to Section 4.2 hereunder, shall be entitled to withdraw
from the Distribution Account on each Distribution Date an amount equal to the
Trustee Fee for such Distribution Date. The Trustee and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Trustee shall be indemnified by the Master Servicer and
held harmless against any loss, liability or expense (including reasonable
attorney's fees) (i) incurred in connection with any claim or legal action
relating to (a) this Agreement, (b) the Certificates or (c) in connection with
the performance of any of the Trustee's duties hereunder, other than any loss,
liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
negligence in the performance of any of the Trustee's duties hereunder or
incurred by reason of any action of the Trustee taken at the direction of the
Certificateholders and (ii) resulting from any error in any tax or information
return prepared by the Master Servicer. Such indemnity shall survive the
termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Trustee
hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the Master Servicer covenants and
agrees, except as otherwise agreed upon in writing by the Depositor and the
Trustee, and except for any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise
from the Trustee's negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, to pay or
reimburse the Trustee, for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances
incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this
Agreement with respect to: (A) the reasonable compensation and the expenses and
disbursements of its counsel not associated with the closing of the issuance of
the Certificates, (B) the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of
any accountant, engineer or appraiser that is not regularly employed by the
Trustee, to the extent that the Trustee must engage such persons to perform acts
or services hereunder and (C) printing and engraving expenses in connection with
preparing any Definitive Certificates. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
Trustee shall not be entitled to payment or reimbursement for any routine
ongoing expenses

                                       88

<PAGE>

incurred by the Trustee in the ordinary course of its duties as Trustee,
Registrar, Tax Matters Person or Paying Agent hereunder or for any other
expenses.

          SECTION 8.6 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.

     The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation or association
organized and doing business under the laws of a state or the United States of
America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a
combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, subject to supervision or
examination by federal or state authority and with a credit rating which would
not cause either of the Rating Agencies to reduce their respective then current
ratings of the Certificates (or having provided such security from time to time
as is sufficient to avoid such reduction). If such corporation or 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 8.6 the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation or 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 the
provisions of this Section 8.6, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the
manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.7 hereof. The entity serving
as Trustee may have normal banking and trust relationships with the Depositor
and its affiliates or the Master Servicer and its affiliates; provided, however,
that such entity cannot be an affiliate of the Master Servicer other than the
Trustee in its role as successor to the Master Servicer.

          SECTION 8.7 Resignation and Removal of Trustee.

     The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby
created by giving written notice of resignation to the Depositor and the Master
Servicer and each Rating Agency not less than 60 days before the date specified
in such notice when, subject to Section 8.8, such resignation is to take effect,
and acceptance by a successor trustee in accordance with Section 8.8 meeting the
qualifications set forth in Section 8.6. If no successor trustee meeting such
qualifications shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within
30 days after the giving of such notice or resignation, the resigning Trustee
may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor trustee.

     If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with
the provisions of Section 8.6 hereof and shall fail to resign after written
request thereto by the Depositor, or if at any time the Trustee shall become
incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent, or a
receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public
officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or
affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, or a tax
is imposed with respect to the Trust Fund by any state in which the Trustee or
the Trust Fund is located and the imposition of such tax would be avoided by the
appointment of a different trustee, then the Depositor or the Master Servicer
may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in
triplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee, one
copy of which shall be delivered to the Master Servicer and one copy to the
successor trustee.

     The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights
may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written
instrument or instruments, in

                                       89

<PAGE>

triplicate, signed by such Holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized,
one complete set of which instruments shall be delivered by the successor
Trustee to the Master Servicer, one complete set to the Trustee so removed and
one complete set to the successor so appointed. Notice of any removal of the
Trustee shall be given to each Rating Agency by the Successor Trustee.

     Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor
trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.7 shall become
effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in
Section 8.8 hereof.

          SECTION 8.8  Successor Trustee.

     Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.7 hereof shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor and to its predecessor trustee
and the Master Servicer an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder and
thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become
effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and
obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if originally
named as trustee herein. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and the predecessor
trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as
may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming
in the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties, and obligations.

     No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section
8.8 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 8.6 hereof and its appointment shall
not adversely affect the then current rating of the Certificates.

     Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this
Section 8.8, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of such trustee
hereunder to all Holders of Certificates. If the Depositor fails to mail such
notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee,
the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the
Depositor.

          SECTION 8.9  Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.

     Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any
corporation succeeding to the business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of
the Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be eligible under
the provisions of Section 8.6 hereof without the execution or filing of any
paper or further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein
to the contrary notwithstanding.

          SECTION 8.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

     Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for
the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any
part of the Trust Fund or

                                       90

<PAGE>

property securing any Mortgage Note may at the time be located, the Master
Servicer and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute
and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the
Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees jointly with the Trustee, or
separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Fund, and
to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, such title to the Trust Fund or any part thereof, whichever
is applicable, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such
powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Master Servicer and the
Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Master Servicer shall not
have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a
request to do so, or in the case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No
co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of
eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.6 and no notice to
Certificateholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee
shall be required under Section 8.8.

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

          (i)    To the extent necessary to effectuate the purposes of this
                 Section 8.10, all rights, powers, duties and obligations
                 conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or
                 imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such
                 separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood
                 that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to
                 act separately without the Trustee joining in such act), except
                 to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which
                 any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as
                 Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Master Servicer
                 hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to
                 perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers,
                 duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the
                 applicable Trust Fund or any portion thereof in any such
                 jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such
                 separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of
                 the Trustee;

          (ii)   No trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable by reason
                 of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder and such
                 appointment shall not, and shall not be deemed to, constitute
                 any such separate trustee or co-trustee as agent of the
                 Trustee;

          (iii)  The Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove
                 any separate trustee or co-trustee; and

          (iv)   The Master Servicer, and not the Trustee, shall be liable for
                 the payment of reasonable compensation, reimbursement and
                 indemnification to any such separate trustee or co-trustee.

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

                                       91

<PAGE>

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

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

          SECTION 8.11 Tax Matters.

     It is intended that the assets with respect to which each REMIC election is
to be made, as set forth in the preliminary statement shall constitute, and that
the conduct of matters relating to such assets shall be such as to qualify such
assets as, a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" as defined in and in
accordance with the REMIC Provisions. In furtherance of such intention, the
Trustee covenants and agrees that it shall act as agent (and the Trustee is
hereby appointed to act as agent) on behalf of any such REMIC and that in such
capacity it shall: (a) prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, in a
timely manner, a U.S. Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit Income Tax Return
(Form 1066 or any successor form adopted by the Internal Revenue Service) and
prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed with the Internal Revenue
Service and applicable state or local tax authorities income tax or information
returns for each taxable year with respect to any such REMIC, containing such
information and at the times and in the manner as may be required by the Code or
state or local tax laws, regulations, or rules, and furnish or cause to be
furnished to Certificateholders the schedules, statements or information at such
times and in such manner as may be required thereby; (b) within thirty days of
the Closing Date, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Internal Revenue
Service, on Forms 8811 or as otherwise may be required by the Code, the name,
title, address, and telephone number of the person that the Holders of the
Certificates may contact for tax information relating thereto, together with
such additional information as may be required by such Form, and update such
information at the time or times in the manner required by the Code; (c) make or
cause to be made elections that such assets be treated as a REMIC on the federal
tax return for its first taxable year (and, if necessary, under applicable state
law); (d) prepare and forward, or cause to be prepared and forwarded, to the
Certificateholders and to the Internal Revenue Service and, if necessary, state
tax authorities, all information returns and reports as and when required to be
provided to them in accordance with the REMIC Provisions, including without
limitation, the calculation of any original issue discount using the prepayment
assumption; (e) provide information necessary for the computation of tax imposed
on the transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted
Transferee, or an agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) of a
Non-Permitted Transferee, or a pass-through entity in which a Non-Permitted
Transferee is the record holder of an interest (the reasonable cost of computing

                                       92

<PAGE>

and furnishing such information may be charged to the Person liable for such
tax); (f) to the extent that they are under its control conduct matters relating
to such assets at all times that any Certificates are outstanding so as to
maintain the status as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions; (g) not knowingly or
intentionally take any action or omit to take any action that would cause the
termination of any REMIC status; (h) pay, from the sources specified in the last
paragraph of this Section 8.11, the amount of any federal or state tax,
including prohibited transaction taxes as described below, imposed on any such
REMIC prior to its termination when and as the same shall be due and payable
(but such obligation shall not prevent the Trustee or any other appropriate
Person from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and shall not
prevent the Trustee from withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law,
pending the outcome of such proceedings); (i) ensure that federal, state or
local income tax or information returns shall be signed by the Trustee or such
other person as may be required to sign such returns by the Code or state or
local laws, regulations or rules; (j) maintain records relating to any such
REMIC, including but not limited to the income, expenses, assets and liabilities
thereof and the fair market value and adjusted basis of the assets determined at
such intervals as may be required by the Code, as may be necessary to prepare
the foregoing returns, schedules, statements or information; and (k) as and when
necessary and appropriate, represent any such REMIC in any administrative or
judicial proceedings relating to an examination or audit by any governmental
taxing authority, request an administrative adjustment as to any taxable year of
any such REMIC, enter into settlement agreements with any governmental taxing
agency, extend any statute of limitations relating to any tax item of any such
REMIC, and otherwise act on behalf of any such REMIC in relation to any tax
matter or controversy involving it.

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

     In the event that any tax is imposed on "prohibited transactions" of any
REMIC as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the "net income from
foreclosure property" of any REMIC as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, on
any contribution to any REMIC after the Startup Day pursuant to Section 860G(d)
of the Code, or any other tax is imposed, if not paid as otherwise provided for
herein, such tax shall be paid by (i) the Trustee, if any such other tax arises
out of or results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its obligations under
this Agreement which breach was caused by its negligence or willful misconduct,
(ii) the Master Servicer, in the case of any such minimum tax, or if such tax
arises out of or results from a breach by the Master Servicer of any of their
obligations under this Agreement, (iii) the Seller, if any such tax arises out
of or results from the Seller's obligation to repurchase a Mortgage Loan
pursuant to Section 2.2 or 2.3 or (iv) in all other cases, or in the event that
the Trustee, the Master

                                       93

<PAGE>

Servicer or the Seller fails to honor its obligations under the preceding
clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), any such tax will be paid with amounts otherwise to
be distributed to the Certificateholders, as provided in Section 3.8(b).

          SECTION 8.12 Periodic Filings.

     The Depositor hereby directs the Trustee to prepare, execute (pursuant to a
limited power of attorney given to the Trustee by the Depositor) and file on
behalf of the Depositor all periodic reports required under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 in conformity with the terms of the "no-action" relief
granted by the SEC to issuers of asset-backed securities such as the
Certificates and the Trustee hereby agrees to do so. The Master Servicer will
also prepare and execute any certifications to be filed with the Form 10-K as
required under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In connection with the
preparation and filing of such periodic reports, the Depositor and the Master
Servicer shall timely provide to the Trustee all material information available
to them which is required to be included in such reports and not known to them
to be in the possession of the Trustee and such other information as the Trustee
reasonably may request from either of them and otherwise reasonably shall
cooperate with the Trustee. The Trustee shall have no liability with respect to
any failure to properly prepare or file such periodic reports resulting from or
relating to the Trustee's inability or failure to obtain any information not
resulting from its own negligence or willful misconduct.

                                   ARTICLE IX
                                   TERMINATION

          SECTION 9.1 Termination upon Liquidation or Purchase of all Mortgage
Loans.

     Subject to Section 9.3, the obligations and responsibilities of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee created hereby with respect to
the Trust Fund shall terminate upon the earlier of (a) the purchase by the
Master Servicer of all Mortgage Loans (and REO Properties) remaining in the
Trust Fund at the price equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the Stated Principal
Balance of each Mortgage Loan (other than a Mortgage Loan that has been
foreclosed and subject to clause (ii)) plus one month's accrued interest thereon
at the applicable Adjusted Mortgage Rate and (ii) the lesser of (x) the
appraised value of any REO Property as determined by the higher of two
appraisals completed by two independent appraisers selected by the Master
Servicer at the expense of the Master Servicer and (y) the Stated Principal
Balance of each Mortgage Loan related to any REO Property, in each case plus
accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the applicable Adjusted Mortgage Rate and
(b) the later of (i) the maturity or other liquidation (or any Advance with
respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and the
disposition of all REO Property and (ii) the distribution to Certificateholders
of all amounts required to be distributed to them pursuant to this Agreement. In
no event shall the trusts created hereby continue beyond the earlier of (i) the
expiration of 21 years from the death of the survivor of the descendants of
Joseph P. Kennedy, the late Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St.
James's, living on the date hereof, and (ii) the Latest Possible Maturity Date.
The right to purchase all Mortgage Loans and REO Properties pursuant to clause
(a) above shall be conditioned upon the Pool Principal Balance for both Mortgage
Pools, at the time of any such repurchase, aggregating less than ten percent of
the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans.

                                       94

<PAGE>

          SECTION 9.2 Final Distribution on the Certificates.

     If on any Determination Date, the Master Servicer determines that there are
no Outstanding Mortgage Loans and no other funds or assets in the Trust Fund
other than the funds in the Certificate Account, the Master Servicer shall
direct the Trustee promptly to send a final distribution notice to each
Certificateholder. If the Master Servicer elects to terminate the Trust Fund
pursuant to clause (a) of Section 9.1, at least 20 days prior to the date notice
is to be mailed to the affected Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall
notify the Depositor and the Trustee of the date the Master Servicer intends to
terminate the Trust Fund and of the applicable repurchase price of the Mortgage
Loans and REO Properties.

     Notice of any termination of the Trust Fund, specifying the Distribution
Date on which Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates for payment of
the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the Trustee
by letter to Certificateholders mailed not earlier than the 10th day and no
later than the 15th day of the month next preceding the month of such final
distribution. Any such notice shall specify (a) the Distribution Date upon which
final distribution on the Certificates will be made upon presentation and
surrender of Certificates at the office therein designated, (b) the amount of
such final distribution, (c) the location of the office or agency at which such
presentation and surrender must be made, and (d) that the Record Date otherwise
applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, distributions being made
only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office therein
specified. The Master Servicer will give such notice to each Rating Agency at
the time such notice is given to Certificateholders.

     In the event such notice is given, the Master Servicer shall cause all
funds in the Certificate Account to be remitted to the Trustee for deposit in
the applicable subaccounts of the Distribution Account on the Business Day prior
to the applicable Distribution Date in an amount equal to the final distribution
in respect of the Certificates. Upon such final deposit with respect to the
Trust Fund and the receipt by the Trustee of a Request for Release therefor, the
Trustee shall promptly release to the Master Servicer the Mortgage Files for the
Mortgage Loans.

     Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Trustee shall
cause to be distributed to the Certificateholders of each Class, in the order
set forth in Section 4.2 hereof, on the final Distribution Date, in the case of
the Certificateholders, in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests,
with respect to Certificateholders of the same Class, an amount equal to (i) as
to each Class of Regular Certificates, the Class Certificate Balance thereof
plus accrued interest thereon (or on their Notional Principal Amount, if
applicable) in the case of an interest bearing Certificate, and (ii) as to the
Residual Certificates, the amount, if any, which remains on deposit in the
Distribution Account (other than the amounts retained to meet claims) after
application pursuant to clause (i) above.

     In the event that any affected Certificateholders shall not surrender
Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in the
above mentioned written notice, the Trustee shall give a second written notice
to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for
cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within
six months after the second notice all the applicable Certificates shall not
have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take appropriate steps,
or may appoint an agent to take appropriate

                                       95

steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their
Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other
assets which remain a part of the Trust Fund. If within one year after the
second notice all Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Holders of each of the Class II-A-RU and Class II-A-RL Certificates shall be
entitled to all unclaimed funds and other assets of the Trust Fund, held for
distribution to such Certificateholders, which remain subject hereto.

          SECTION 9.3 Additional Termination Requirements.

     (a)  In the event the Master Servicer exercises its purchase option as
          provided in Section 9.1, the Trust Fund and each REMIC created
          hereunder shall be terminated in accordance with the following
          additional requirements, unless the Trustee has been supplied with an
          Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of the Master Servicer, to the
          effect that the failure to comply with the requirements of this
          Section 9.3 will not (i) result in the imposition of taxes on
          "prohibited transactions" on the REMIC as defined in Section 860F of
          the Code, or (ii) cause any REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any
          time that any Certificates are outstanding:

                    (1)  Within 90 days prior to the final Distribution Date set
               forth in the notice given by the Master Servicer under Section
               9.2, the Master Servicer shall prepare and the Trustee, at the
               expense of the "tax matters person," shall adopt a plan of
               complete liquidation within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(4) of
               the Code for each REMIC created hereunder which, as evidenced by
               an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee (which opinion
               shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Tax Matters
               Person), meets the requirements of a qualified liquidation; and

                    (2)  Within 90 days after the time of adoption of such plans
               of complete liquidation, the Trustee shall sell all of the assets
               of the Trust Fund to the Master Servicer for cash in accordance
               with Section 9.1.

     (b)  The Trustee as agent for any REMIC established hereunder hereby agrees
          to adopt and sign such a plan of complete liquidation upon the written
          request of the Master Servicer, and the receipt of the Opinion of
          Counsel referred to in Section 9.3(a)(1) and to take such other action
          in connection therewith as may be reasonably requested by the Master
          Servicer.

     (c)  By their acceptance of the Certificates, the Holders thereof hereby
          authorize the Master Servicer to prepare and the Trustee to adopt and
          sign plans of complete liquidation.

                             MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

          SECTION 11.1 Amendment.

     This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and the Trustee without the consent of any of the
Certificateholders (i) to cure any ambiguity or mistake, (ii) to correct any
defective provision herein or to supplement any provision herein which may be
inconsistent with any other provision herein, (iii) to add to the duties of the
Depositor, the Seller or the Master Servicer, (iv) to add any other provisions
with respect to matters or questions arising hereunder or (v) to modify, alter,
amend, add to or rescind any of the terms or provisions contained in this
Agreement; provided that any action pursuant to clauses (iv) or (v) above shall
not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee (which
Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund),
adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder;
provided, however, that the amendment shall not be deemed to adversely affect in
any material respect the interests of the Certificateholders if the Person
requesting the amendment obtains a letter from each Rating Agency stating that
the amendment would not result in the downgrading or withdrawal of the
respective ratings then assigned to the Certificates; it being understood and
agreed that any such letter in and of itself will not represent a determination
as to the materiality of any such amendment and will represent a determination
only as to the credit issues affecting any such rating. The Trustee, the
Depositor and the Master Servicer also may at any time and from time to time
amend this Agreement without the consent of the Certificateholders to modify,
eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary
or helpful to (i) maintain the qualification of the REMIC as a REMIC under the
Code, (ii) avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any tax on the REMIC
pursuant to the Code that would be a claim at any time prior to the final
redemption of the Certificates or (iii) comply with any other requirements of
the Code, provided that the Trustee has been provided an Opinion of Counsel,
which opinion shall be an expense of the party requesting such opinion but in
any case shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund, to the effect
that such action is necessary or helpful to, as applicable, (i) maintain such
qualification, (ii) avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of such a tax
or (iii) comply with any such requirements of the Code.

     This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a Majority in
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 of Certificates; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (i)
reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments required to
be distributed on any Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such
Certificate, (ii) adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the
Holders of any Class of Certificates in a manner other than as described in (i),
without the consent of the Holders of Certificates of such Class evidencing, as
to such Class, Percentage Interests aggregating 66%, or (iii) reduce the
aforesaid

                                       97

<PAGE>

percentages of Certificates the Holders of which are required to consent to any
such amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all such Certificates then
outstanding.

     Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the Trustee shall
not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall have first
received an Opinion of Counsel, which opinion shall not be an expense of the
Trustee or the Trust Fund, to the effect that such amendment will not cause the
imposition of any tax on the REMIC or the Certificateholders or cause the REMIC
to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding.

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

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

     Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Trustee to enter into an
amendment without receiving an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion shall not be an
expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund), satisfactory to the Trustee that (i)
such amendment is permitted and is not prohibited by this Agreement and that all
requirements for amending this Agreement have been complied with; and (ii)
either (A) the amendment does not adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of any Certificateholder or (B) the conclusion set forth in the
immediately preceding clause (A) is not required to be reached pursuant to this
Section 11.1.

          SECTION 11.2 Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.

     This Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices
for real property records in all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions
in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and
in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation
to be effected by the Master Servicer at its expense, but only upon direction a
majority of the Certificateholders to the effect that such recordation
materially and beneficially affects the interests of the Certificateholders.

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

          SECTION 11.3 Governing Law.

     THIS AGREEMENT (OTHER THAN SECTION 2.1 HEREOF) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND
THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THE
CERTIFICATEHOLDERS SHALL

                                       98

<PAGE>

BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS. SECTION 2.1 OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL
BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF DELAWARE APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN THE STATE
OF DELAWARE AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND
THE CERTIFICATEHOLDERS UNDER SUCH SECTION SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
SUCH LAWS.

          SECTION 11.4 Intention of Parties.

     (a)  It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of
          the Trust Fund by the Depositor to the Trustee be, and be construed
          as, absolute sales thereof to the Trustee. It is, further, not the
          intention of the parties that such conveyances be deemed a pledge
          thereof by the Depositor to the Trustee. However, in the event that,
          notwithstanding the intent of the parties, such assets are held to be
          the property of the Depositor, or if for any other reason this
          Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in such
          assets, then (i) this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security
          agreement within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of the
          State of New York and (ii) the conveyance provided for in this
          Agreement shall be deemed to be an assignment and a grant by the
          Depositor to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders,
          of a security interest in all of the assets that constitute the Trust
          Fund, whether now owned or hereafter acquired.

          The Depositor, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall, to
     the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be
     necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a
     security interest in the Trust Fund, such security interest would be deemed
     to be a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law
     and will be maintained as such throughout the term of the Agreement. The
     Depositor shall arrange for filing any Uniform Commercial Code continuation
     statements in connection with any security interest granted or assigned to
     the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders.

          SECTION 11.5 Notices.

     (a)  The Trustee shall use its best efforts to promptly provide notice to
          each Rating Agency with respect to each of the following of which it
          has actual knowledge:

               (1)  Any material change or amendment to this Agreement;

               (2)  The occurrence of any Event of Default that has not been
                    cured;

               (3)  The resignation or termination of the Master Servicer or the
                    Trustee and the appointment of any successor;

               (4)  The repurchase or substitution of Mortgage Loans pursuant to
                    Section 2.3; and

                                       99

<PAGE>

               (5)  The final payment to Certificateholders.

               (6)  Any rating action involving the long-term credit rating of
                    the Master Servicer, which notice shall be made by
                    first-class mail within two Business Days after the Trustee
                    gains actual knowledge thereof.

     In addition, the Trustee shall promptly furnish to each Rating Agency
copies of the following:

               (7)  Each report to Certificateholders described in Section 4.6;

               (8)  Each annual statement as to compliance described in Section
                    3.16;

                    Section 2.2, 2.3 or 3.11.

     (b)  All directions, demands, authorizations, consents, waivers,
          communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be
          deemed to have been duly given when delivered to by first class mail,

          postage prepaid, to their respective addresses appearing in the
          Certificate Register.

          SECTION 11.6 Severability of Provisions.

     If any one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of
this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the

          SECTION 11.7 Assignment.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, except as
provided in Section 6.2, this Agreement may not be assigned by the Master
Servicer without the prior written consent of the Trustee and Depositor.

          SECTION 11.8 Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders.

     The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate to
terminate this Agreement or the trust created hereby, nor entitle such
Certificateholder's legal representative or heirs to claim an accounting or to
take any action or commence any proceeding in any court for a petition or
winding up of the trust created hereby, or otherwise affect the rights,
obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto or any of them.

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

     No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue or by availing itself
of any provisions of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding
in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, unless such
Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee a written notice of an Event
of Default and of the continuance thereof, as herein provided, and unless the
Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights
evidenced by the Certificates shall also have made written request to the
Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee
hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it
may require against the costs, expenses, and liabilities to be incurred therein
or thereby, and the Trustee, for 60 days after its receipt of such notice,
request and offer of indemnity shall have neglected or refused to institute any
such action, suit or proceeding; it being understood and intended, and being
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 itself or
themselves of any provisions of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice
the rights of the Holders of any other of the 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
common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement of
the provisions of this Section 11.8, each and every Certificateholder and the
Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in
equity.

          SECTION 11.9 Inspection and Audit Rights.

     The Master Servicer agrees that, on reasonable prior notice, it will permit
and will cause each Subservicer to permit any representative of the Depositor or
the Trustee during the Master Servicer's normal business hours, to examine all
the books of account, records, reports and other papers of the Master Servicer
relating to the Mortgage Loans, to make copies and extracts

                                       101

accountants selected by the Depositor or the Trustee and to discuss its affairs,
finances and accounts relating to the Mortgage Loans with its officers,
employees and independent public accountants (and by this provision the Master
Servicer hereby authorizes said accountants to discuss with such representative
such affairs, finances and accounts), all at such reasonable times and as often
as may be reasonably requested. Any out-of-pocket expense incident to the
exercise by the Depositor or the Trustee of any right under this Section 11.9
shall be borne by the party requesting such inspection; all other such expenses
shall be borne by the Master Servicer or the related Subservicer.

          SECTION 11.10 Certificates Nonassessable and Fully Paid.

     It is the intention of the Depositor that Certificateholders shall not be
personally liable for obligations of the Trust Fund, that the interests in the
Trust Fund represented by the Certificates shall be nonassessable for any reason
whatsoever, and that the Certificates, upon due authentication thereof by the
Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, are and shall be deemed fully paid.

          SECTION 11.11 Limitations on Actions; No Proceedings.

     (a)  Other than pursuant to this Agreement, or in connection with or
          incidental to the provisions or purposes of this Agreement, the trust
          created hereunder shall not (i) issue debt or otherwise borrow money,

          entity, or (iii) otherwise engage in any activity or exercise any
          power not provided for in this Agreement.

     (b)  Notwithstanding any prior termination of this Agreement, the Trustee,
          the Master Servicer and the Depositor shall not, prior to the date
          which is one year and one day after the termination of this Agreement,
          acquiesce, petition or otherwise invoke or cause any Person to invoke
          the process of any court or government authority for the purpose of

          Fund under any federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other
          similar law or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee,
          custodian, sequestrator or other similar official of the Depositor or
          the Trust Fund or any substantial part of their respective property,
