         (a) Demand. At any time after six months following the Effective Date,
upon written notice to the Company from a Holder (the "Initiating Holder") of
Registrable Securities requesting that the Company effect, pursuant to this
Section 2, the registration of such Initiating Holder's Registrable Securities
under the Securities Act having a market value at the time of such notice of not
less than $25,000,000 (which notice shall specify the Registrable Securities so
requested to be registered, the proposed amounts thereof (which shall be
Registrable Securities having a market value of at least $25,000,000) and the
intended method or methods of disposition by such Initiating Holders (including
whether or not the proposed offering is to be underwritten)), the Company shall
promptly (but in any event within 20 days) give written notice of such requested
registration to all Holders, and thereupon the Company shall, as expeditiously
as possible, use its best efforts to effect the registration under the
Securities Act of:

                  (A) the Registrable Securities that the Initiating Holder has
         requested the Company to register, for disposition in accordance with
         the intended method or methods of disposition stated in their notice to
         the Company; and

                                       3
<PAGE>
                  (B) all other Registrable Securities the Holders of which
         shall have made a written request to the Company for registration
         thereof (which request shall specify such Registrable Securities and
         the proposed amounts thereof) within 20 days after the receipt of such
         written notice from the Company,

all to the extent requisite to permit the disposition by Holders of the
securities then constituting Registrable Securities so to be registered;
provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section
2(a), the affiliated Holders listed on Annex A (the "Affiliated Entities") shall
be treated as one Holder for purposes of determining the amount to be registered
pursuant to this Section 2(a) and if the Holders listed on Annex A request that
the Company register for sale all the remaining aggregate Registrable Securities
then held by such Holders, the market value of such securities shall be not less
than $10,000,000, rather than $25,000,000 as specified above.

         (b) Number of Demands; Frequency; Duration. Holders shall have the
right to four Demand Registrations under this Section 2. The Company shall not
be required to effect a Demand Registration pursuant to this Section 2: (i) if
it shall have so effected a Demand Registration during the previous six months;
(ii) if the Initiating Holder shall have requested such Demand Registration more
than three times (excluding any Registrations under Section 2(c)) previously
(which Demand Registrations became effective or were abandoned pursuant to
Section 2(d)), or (iii) after the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date;
provided, however, that a Demand Registration shall not be deemed to have been
effected for purposes of Section 2(b)(i) if the applicable registration
statement has not been declared effective and kept effective until the earlier
of (i) six months following the date on which such registration statement was
declared effective and (ii) the sale pursuant to such registration statement of
the Registrable Securities covered thereby.

         (c) Inclusion of Other Securities; Cut-Back. The Company shall not
register any securities other than (i) for its own account, or (ii) Registrable
Securities, in any Demand Registration without the prior written consent of the
Majority Sellers in such Demand Registration. If any securities other than
Registrable Securities are so registered, (i) securities to be registered by the
Company for sale for its own account with aggregate estimated net proceeds
therefrom to the Company (at the time of filing such registration statement) of
up to $50,000,000 shall have absolute priority over securities requested to be
registered by Holders or third parties, (ii) Registrable Securities of Holders
shall have absolute priority over (A) any securities to be registered by the
Company for sale for its own account other than securities referred to in clause
(i) and (B) securities requested to be registered by third parties, and (iii)
the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration will not be
deemed to have used a Demand Registration under this Section 2 with respect to
such registration.

         Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2(a) hereof, if the managing
underwriter or underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering of Registrable
Securities pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof (which may also include an offering
of securities for the account of the Company), deliver written advice to the
Holders requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities stating that the
total amount or kind of securities that they and any other Persons (other than
the Company) seek to include in such offering would materially and adversely
affect the

                                       4
<PAGE>
success of such offering, then the amount or kind of Registrable Securities to
be offered for the accounts of Holders shall be reduced pro rata (subject to the
provisions of the next paragraph) based on the number of Registrable Securities
requested to be included in such Registration by the Holders to the extent
necessary to reduce the total amount of Registrable Securities to be included in
such offering to that recommended by such managing underwriter or underwriters
(which amount may be zero); provided, however, that if the amount of any kind of
Registrable Securities to be offered for the accounts of Holders is reduced in
accordance with this Section 2(c), the Company may not include in such offering
any securities other than (i) Registrable Securities and (ii) securities, if
any, that the Company is offering for sale for its own account in a primary
underwritten offering. If the number of Registrable Securities to be included in
a registration pursuant to this Section 2 is reduced by more than two-thirds
(2/3) of the number of Registrable Securities requested to be offered pursuant
to this Section 2, the Holders shall be granted an additional right to Demand
Registration under this Section 2.

         If Management Securities are proposed to be included in a Registration
in which the number of Registrable Securities to be included therein is the
subject of a cut-back upon the advice of the managing underwriter or
underwriters, then as between the Holders of Management Securities and the
Holders of Non-Management Securities, the proration of Registrable Securities
shall be made in accordance with this paragraph. The Holders of Non-Management
Securities shall be entitled to offer one hundred and twenty-five percent (125%)
of the number of Registrable Securities which they would have been entitled to
offer but for the provisions of this paragraph, and the number of Management
Securities which the Holders thereof shall be entitled to offer shall be reduced
pro rata by the number of additional Non-Management Securities included in the
offering pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph.

         (d) Company's Right to Delay Registration. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company may delay filing a registration statement, and may
withhold its efforts to cause the registration statement to become effective,
for the minimum period necessary in the reasonable good faith judgment of the
Company, if the Company determines in reasonable good faith that such
registration might (i) interfere with or affect the negotiation or completion of
any material transaction that is then being actively contemplated by the Company
(whether or not a final decision has been made to undertake such transaction) at
the time the right to delay is exercised, or (ii) involve initial or continuing
disclosure obligations that might not be in the best interests of the holders of
the Company's equity securities. Any time the Company exercises its right to
delay the filing of a registration statement or to withhold its efforts to cause
a registration statement to become effective, the period of time when Holders
hereunder have the right to cause the Company to effect a Demand Registration as
provided in Section 2(b) shall be extended during the period of such delay.

         3. Piggyback Registrations.

         (a) Effective Registration. If the Company proposes to file a
registration statement under the Securities Act (for its own account or for the
account of others and including, without limitation, the registration statement
in connection with a Qualified IPO) with respect to any class of equity
securities (other than in connection with the registration of equity securities
issued or issuable pursuant to an employee equity option, purchase, bonus or
similar

                                       5
<PAGE>
plan or pursuant to a merger, exchange offer or transaction of the type
specified in Rule 145(a) under the Securities Act) at any time prior to the
sixth anniversary of the Effective Date, then the Company shall give written
notice of such proposed filing to the Holders at least 20 days before the
anticipated filing date, and such notice shall offer the Holders the opportunity
to register such amount of Registrable Securities as each such Holder may
request. The Company shall use its reasonable good faith efforts to cause the
managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to
permit the inclusion therein of any Registrable Securities the Holders of which
request, within 15 days after receiving written notice of the proposed filing
from the Company, such inclusion, on the same terms and conditions as any
similar securities of the Company so included. Any Holder's request for such
inclusion may be withdrawn, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the
effective date of the registration statement for such offering.

         (b) Cut-Backs. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3(a) hereof,
if the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering
as described in such Section 3(a) deliver written advice to the Holders
requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities stating that the total
amount or kind of securities that they and any other Persons seek to include in
such offering would materially and adversely affect the success of such
offering, then the amount or kind of Registrable Securities to be offered for
the accounts of Holders shall be reduced pro rata based on the number of
Registrable Securities then requested to be included by the Holders to the
extent necessary to reduce the total amount of Registrable Securities to be
included in such offering to that recommended by such managing underwriter or
underwriters (which amount may be zero); provided, however, that if the amount
of any kind of Registrable Securities to be offered for the accounts of Holders
is reduced in accordance with this Section 3(b), the Company may not include in
such offering any securities other than (i) Registrable Securities and (ii)
securities, if any, that the Company is offering for sale for its own account in
a primary underwritten offering.

      If Management Securities are proposed to be included in a Registration in
which the number of Registrable Securities to be included therein is the subject
of a cut-back upon the advice of the managing underwriter or underwriters, then
as between the Holders of Management Securities and the Holders of
Non-Management Securities, the proration of Registrable Securities shall be made
in accordance with this paragraph. The Holders of Non-Management Securities
shall be entitled to offer one hundred and twenty-five percent (125%) of the
number of Registrable Securities which they would have been entitled to offer
but for the provisions of this paragraph, and the number of Management
Securities which the Holders thereof shall be entitled to offer shall be reduced
pro rata by the number of additional Non-Management Securities included in the
offering pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph.

      4. Form S-3 Registration.

         (a) Effective Registration. If the Company becomes eligible to use Form
S-3 for resale of securities under the Securities Act or a comparable successor
form, the Company shall use its best efforts to continue to qualify at all times
for registration on Form S-3 or such successor form. At any time after the
Company becomes eligible to use Form S-3 or such successor form, upon written
notice to the Company from Holders holding Registrable Securities having a
market value at the time of such notice of not less than $10,000,000 shall have
the right

                                       6
<PAGE>
to request and have effected a registration of Registrable Securities on Form
S-3 or such successor form for a public offering of Registrable Securities so
long as Registrable Securities having a market value of at least $10,000,000 at
the time of such notice are proposed to be included in such registration. The
Holders shall have an unlimited number of Form S-3 Registrations under this
Section 4. Each such notice shall be in writing and shall state the number of
shares of Registrable Securities to be disposed of and the intended method or
methods of disposition by such Holders. The Company shall use its best efforts
to cause the registration statement or statements filed pursuant to this Section
to remain effective until the earlier of (A) the date on which all Registrable
Securities included in the registration statement shall have been sold and (B)
the date which is six (6) months following the effective date of the applicable
registration statement.

                  (b) Inclusion of Other Securities; Cut-Back; Company's Right
to Delay Registration. A registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3
pursuant to this Section 4 shall not count as a "Demand Registration" for
purposes of determining the number of Demand Registrations a Holder is entitled
to pursuant to Section 2, but each such registration shall be treated as a
Demand Registration for all other purposes of Section 2.

      5. Holdback Agreements.

         (a) Restrictions on Public Sales by Holders of Registrable Securities.
To the extent not inconsistent with applicable law, each Holder of Registrable
Securities eligible for inclusion in a registration statement that is timely
notified in writing of such right by the managing underwriter or underwriters of
any securities being registered in an underwritten offering (other than pursuant
to an employee equity option, purchase, bonus or similar plan, pursuant to a
merger, exchange offer or a transaction of the type specified in Rule 145(a)
under the Securities Act), shall not (if so requested by such managing
underwriter or underwriters and provided that all beneficial owners of five
percent (5%) or more of the Company's securities are likewise restricted) effect
any public sale or distribution (including a sale pursuant to Rule 144) of any
Registrable Securities that are similar to any such securities or any
Registrable Securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any
such securities, during the period so requested, not to exceed the 180-day
period beginning on, the effective date of the applicable registration
statement, except as part of such registration. Notwithstanding anything to the
foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit any of the Holders from
selling their Registrable Securities in a private transaction. If there is a
waiver by a managing underwriter or underwriters of any restriction pursuant to
this Section 5(a) with respect to any beneficial owner of five percent (5%) or
more of the Company's securities, then such waiver shall automatically apply to
each Holder of Registrable Securities.

         (b) Restrictions on Sales by the Company. If so requested by the
managing underwriter or underwriters, the Company shall not effect any sale of
any securities of the Company similar to any Registrable Securities being
offered in an underwritten offering under a registration statement filed
pursuant to this Agreement or any securities of the Company convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for any such Registrable Securities, during the
period so requested, not to exceed the 180-day period beginning on, the
effective date of the

                                       7
<PAGE>
applicable registration statement, except as part of such registration or
pursuant to employee benefit plans maintained by the Company at the beginning of
such restricted period.

      6. Registration Procedures.

         (a) Company Procedures. Whenever the Company is required by this
Agreement to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the
Securities Act pursuant to a registration statement, the Company shall use its
best efforts to effect each such registration to permit the sale of such
Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods of
disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall, as soon as
practicable:

            (i) prepare and file with the Commission (and shall use its best
efforts to file the same no later than 45 days after the request for
registration made in accordance with the Agreement) the requisite registration
statement to effect such registration and thereafter use its best efforts to
cause such registration statement to be declared effective as soon as
practicable and to remain continuously effective for the time period required by
this Agreement to the extent permitted under the Securities Act, provided that
as soon as practicable but in no event later than three Business Days before
filing such registration statement, any related prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto (other than any amendment or supplement made solely as a
result of incorporation by reference of documents filed with the Commission
subsequent to the filing of such registration statement or a registration
statement filed pursuant to Rule 462), the Company shall deliver to the Holders,
the Holders' Counsel and the underwriters, if any, copies of all such documents
proposed to be filed, which documents shall be subject to the review of such
Holders, the Holders' Counsel and underwriters; the Company shall not file any
registration statement or amendment thereto or any prospectus or any supplement
thereto (other than any amendment or supplement made solely as a result of
incorporation by reference of documents filed with the Commission subsequent to
the filing of such registration statement) to which the managing underwriters of
the applicable offering, if any, or the Majority Registered Holders shall have
reasonably objected in writing within two Business Days after receipt of such
documents to the effect that such registration statement or amendment thereto or
prospectus or supplement thereto does not comply in all material respects with
the requirements of the Securities Act (provided that the foregoing shall not
limit the right of any Holder whose Registrable Securities are covered by a
registration statement to reasonably object, within two Business Days after
receipt of such documents, to any particular information that is to be contained
in such registration statement, amendment, prospectus or supplement and relates
specifically to such Holder, including, without limitation, any information
describing the manner in which such Holder acquired such Registrable Securities
and the intended method or methods of distribution of such Registrable
Securities), and if the Company is unable to file any such document due to the
objections of such underwriters or such Holders, the Company shall use its best
efforts to cooperate with such underwriters and Holders to prepare, as soon as
practicable, a document that is responsive in all material respects to the
reasonable objections of such underwriters and Holders;

            (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
post-effective amendments to such registration statement as may be necessary to
keep such

                                       8
<PAGE>
registration statement continuously effective and current for the period
required by this Agreement to the extent permitted under the Securities Act; and
cause each related prospectus to be supplemented by any prospectus supplement as
may be required, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; and
otherwise comply with the provisions of the Securities Act as may be necessary
to facilitate the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement during the applicable period in accordance with the
intended method or methods of disposition by the selling Holders thereof set
forth in such registration statement or such prospectus or prospectus
supplement;

            (iii) notify the Holders and the managing underwriters, if any, of
the applicable offering (providing, if requested by any such Persons,
confirmation in writing) as soon as practicable after becoming aware of: (A) the
filing of any prospectus or prospectus supplement or the filing or effectiveness
(or anticipated date of effectiveness) of such registration statement or any
post-effective amendment thereto; (B) any request by the Commission for
amendments or supplements to such registration statement or the related
prospectus or for additional information; (C) the issuance by the Commission of
any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement or
the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (D) the receipt by the
Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification
or registration (or exemption therefrom) of any Registrable Securities for sale
in any jurisdiction in the United States or the initiation or threatening of any
proceeding for such purposes; or (E) the happening of any event that makes any
statement made in such registration statement or in any related prospectus,
prospectus supplement, amendment or document incorporated therein by reference
untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in
such registration statement or in any such prospectus, supplement, amendment or
other such document so that it will not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading;

            (iv) make every reasonable effort to obtain at the earliest possible
moment the withdrawal of any order or other action suspending the effectiveness
of any such registration statement or suspending the qualification or
registration (or exemption therefrom) of the Registrable Securities for sale in
any jurisdiction;

            (v) if reasonably requested by the managing underwriters, if any, of
the applicable offering, or by the Majority Sellers, as soon as practicable
incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such
information as such underwriters or the Majority Sellers, as the case may be,
agree should be included therein relating to the sale and offering of the
applicable Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information
with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being sold to any
underwriters, the purchase price being paid therefor by any such underwriters
and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities; and make all
required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as
soon as practicable following receipt of notice of the matters to be
incorporated therein;

                                       9
<PAGE>
            (vi) as soon as practicable after filing such documents with the
Commission, furnish to the Holders, the Holders' Counsel and each of the
underwriters, if any, without charge, at least one manually signed or conformed
copy of such registration statement and any post-effective amendment thereto,
including financial statements and schedules; and as soon as practicable after
the request of any Holder, the Holders' Counsel or underwriter, furnish to such
Holder, the Holders' Counsel or underwriter, as the case may be, at least one
copy of any document incorporated by reference in such registration statement or
in any related prospectus, prospectus supplement or amendment, together with all
exhibits thereto (including those previously furnished or incorporated by
reference);

            (vii) deliver to the Holders, the Holders' Counsel and to each of
the underwriters, if any, without charge, as many copies of the prospectus or
prospectuses (including each preliminary prospectus) and any amendment or
supplement thereto as such Persons may reasonably request; subject to Section
6(b)(i) hereof, the Company consents to the use of any such prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto by the Holders and the underwriters, if any, in
connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by
any such prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto;

            (viii) prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities,
register or qualify (or obtain an exemption therefrom), or cooperate with the
Holders, the underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel in connection
with the registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) of, such
Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws
of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Holders or the underwriters,
if any, shall reasonably request in writing; keep each such registration or
qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the period during which
such registration statement is required to be kept effective pursuant to this
Agreement; and do any and all other acts and things reasonably necessary or
advisable to facilitate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement; provided that the Company
shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction
where it would not be required to qualify but for this Section 6(a)(viii);

            (ix) cooperate with Holders participating in such registration and

Company, and cause the Company's officers, Managers and employees to supply all

            (xvi) otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable

<PAGE>
Registrable Securities are sold to underwriters in a firm commitment or best

         (b) Holder Procedures.

            (i) Each Holder agrees, by acquisition of the Registrable Securities

      7. Registration Expenses.

         All Registration Expenses, as hereinafter defined, shall be borne by
the Company. The term "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses incident
to the Company's performance of or compliance with this Agreement, including
without limitation all registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of

limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing

                                       13
<PAGE>

audit or "comfort" or similar letters or reports required by or incident to such

      8. Indemnification; Contribution.

         (a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify, to the
full extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its
officers, Managers, employees, partners, members and agents, each Person who
controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) and any
investment adviser thereof, counsel or agent therefor, against all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable costs of
investigation and legal expenses) arising out of or based upon any of the
following statements, omissions or violations (collectively, a "Violation"): (i)
any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
registration statement covering any Registrable Securities, any related
prospectus or preliminary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto,
(ii) any omission or alleged omission to state in any thereof a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in
the case of a prospectus or prospectus supplement, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made) not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged
violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state
securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act,
the Exchange Act or any state securities law, except in each case the Company
shall not be obligated to indemnify a particular Holder insofar, but only
insofar, as the same arises out of or is based upon (i) an untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or an omission or alleged omission
to state a material fact in such registration statement, prospectus, preliminary
prospectus, amendment or supplement, as the case may be, made or omitted, as the
case may be, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein, or (ii) a
violation by such Holder of Section 6(b)(i) hereof. This indemnity is in
addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have. The Company
shall, if requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters of such
offering, also indemnify any underwriters of the Registrable Securities, selling
brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals
participating in the distribution and their officers and Managers and each
Person who controls such underwriters or other Persons (within the meaning of
the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the
indemnification of Holders and other specified Persons.

                                       14
<PAGE>
         (b) Indemnification by Holders of Registrable Securities. In connection
with any registration statement covering Registrable Securities, each Holder
(severally, as to itself only, and not jointly with any other Holder) any of
whose Registrable Securities are covered thereby shall furnish to the Company in
writing such information and affidavits with respect to such Holder as the
Company reasonably requests for use in connection with such registration
statement, any related prospectus or preliminary prospectus, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, and shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted by law,
the Company, the Company's Managers, officers, employees and agents, each Person
who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) and any
investment adviser thereof or agent therefor, against all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable costs of investigation
and legal expenses) arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement
covering any Registrable Securities, any related prospectus or preliminary
prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged
omission to state in any thereof a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus or
prospectus supplement, in light of the circumstances under which they were made)
not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that the
same arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or an omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact in such registration statement or in such related prospectus,
preliminary prospectus, amendment or supplement, as the case may be, made or
omitted, as the case may be, in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein,
or (ii) a violation by such Holder of Section 6(b)(i) hereof; provided, however,
that in no event shall the liability of any Holder for indemnification under
this Section 8(b) exceed the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale
of Registrable Securities under the applicable registration statement and the
Holder shall not indemnify for any settlement made without the consent of such
Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. This indemnity is in
addition to any liability that a Holder may otherwise have. Each Holder
participating in an offering of Registrable Securities shall, if requested by
the managing underwriter or underwriters of such offering, also (severally, as
to itself only, and not jointly with any other Holder) indemnify any
underwriters of such Registrable Securities, selling brokers, dealer managers
and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution
of such Registrable Securities and their officers and Managers and each Person
who controls such underwriters or other Persons (within the meaning of the
Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the
indemnification of the Company and other specified Persons.

         (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to
indemnification under this Section 8 agrees to give prompt written notice to the
indemnifying party after the receipt by such Person of any written notice of the
commencement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation or threat thereof
made in writing for which such Person will claim indemnification or contribution
pursuant to this Agreement and, unless in the reasonable judgment of such
indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified
party and the indemnifying party with respect to such claim, permit the
indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such indemnified party. If the indemnifying party is not
entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim, it shall not be
obligated to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one counsel with
respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of counsel to such
indemnified party, expressed

                                       15
<PAGE>
in a writing delivered to the indemnifying party, a conflict of interest may
exist between such indemnified party and any other indemnified party with
respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated
to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such additional counsel or counsels
(which shall be limited to one counsel per indemnified party treating as one
each Holder and any of its officers and Managers and each Person who controls
such Holder). The indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for
any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. The failure of any indemnified party to notify an indemnifying party
within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial
to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of
liability to the indemnified party under this Section 8 only to the extent that
such failure to give notice shall materially prejudice the indemnifying party in
the defense of any such claim or any such litigation, but the omission so to
notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may
have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 8.

         (d) Contribution.

            (i) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 from the
indemnifying party is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder in respect
of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein,
then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a
result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying
party and indemnified parties in connection with the actions that resulted in
such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that in no event shall the
liability of any Holder for contribution under this Section 8(d) exceed the net
proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities under
the applicable registration statement. The relative fault of such indemnifying
party and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material
fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying
party or indemnified parties, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The
amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject
to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other fees or expenses
reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or
proceeding.

            (ii) The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by pro
rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account
of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning
of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from
any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

            (iii) If indemnification is available under this Section 8, the
indemnifying parties shall indemnify each indemnified party to the full extent
provided in

                                       16
<PAGE>
Section 8(a) and Section 8(b) hereof without regard to the relative fault of
said indemnifying party or indemnified party or any other equitable
consideration provided for in this Section 8(d).

      9. Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of
Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act ("Rule 144"), the Company agrees
at its cost and expense to use its best efforts to:

         (a) at all times after 90 days after any registration statement
covering a public offering of securities of the Company under the Securities Act
shall have become effective, or at all times after the equity securities of the
Company shall initially be registered pursuant to the requirements of Section 12
of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") make and keep
public information available, as those terms are understood within Rule 144;

         (b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act;
and

         (c) furnish to each Holder of Registrable Securities, forthwith upon
request, a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the
reporting requirements of such Rule 144 and of the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual and/or quarterly report of the
Company and such other information as may reasonably be requested by a holder to
permit such Holder to avail itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission
that permits the selling of the Registrable Securities without registration
under the Securities Act.

      10. Participation in Underwritten Registrations

         No Person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder
unless such Person (a) agrees to sell such Person's securities on the basis
provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled
hereunder to approve such arrangements, (b) timely completes, executes and
delivers all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting
agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such
underwriting arrangements and (c) agrees to pay such Person's pro rata portion
of all underwriting discounts and commissions and the fees and expenses of such
Person's counsel (other than Holders' Counsel up to the amount specified in
Section 7).

      11. Cooperation with the Company.

         Each Holder by the acceptance of Registrable Securities agrees to use
its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with the Company in all reasonable
respects in connection with the preparation and filing of Registrations
hereunder in which such Registrable Securities are included or requested to be
included.

      12. Miscellaneous.

         (a) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company shall not hereafter enter
into any agreement with respect to any of its securities that contains
provisions more favorable to the

                                       17
<PAGE>
holders thereof than the provisions contained in this Agreement (including,
without limitation, granting to such holders rights to register securities which
have priority over the rights of the Holders under this Agreement) without
providing for the granting of comparable rights to the Holders in this Agreement
or that contains provisions that conflict with the provisions hereof.

         (b) Remedies. Each Holder of Registrable Securities, in addition to
being entitled to exercise all rights in an action at law, including recovery of
damages, shall be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this
Agreement. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate
compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions
of this Provisions and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action for
specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

         (c) Amendments and Waivers. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and
waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given
unless the Company shall have obtained the prior written consent of (i) the
Holders of a majority of the securities then constituting Registrable Securities
and (ii) each Holder materially and adversely affected by such amendment,
modification, supplement, waiver or departure.

         (d) Notices. All notices, requests, waivers, releases, consents, and
other communications required or permitted by this Agreement (collectively,

telegram or (upon written confirmation of receipt) by electronic facsimile

nationally recognized overnight courier service, or three Business Days after
being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed. All Notices shall be

         (e) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit
of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of each of the parties hereto,
including any successors by merger to the Company. It is contemplated that the
Company may be restructured before a Qualified IPO or other initial public
offering (for example, the entity effecting an initial public offering may be a
successor by merger or reorganization to, or may be an owner of the Company).
This Agreement shall bind and apply to each Successor Entity as if it is the

of Registrable Securities.

         (f) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of

of time specified in this Agreement, the date of the act or event from which
such period of time is to be measured shall be included, any such period shall

any such period denominated in months shall expire on the date in the last month
of such period that has the same numerical designation as the date of the act or
event from which such period is to be measured; provided, however, that if there
is no date in the last month of such period that has the same numerical
designation as the date of such act or event, such period shall expire on the
last day of the last month of such period.

         (h) Certain Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, the Board of Managers of the Company may make or
provide for such adjustments in the numbers of shares of, or percentage of
interest represented by, Registrable Securities specified in any other provision
of this Agreement specifying a number or percentage of Registrable Securities,
as the Board of Managers may determine, is equitably required to prevent
diminution or enlargement of the rights of Holders that otherwise would result
from any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization,
or other similar change in the capital structure of the Company.

         (d)      The sale, transfer, assignment, set-over and conveyance of the

that (i) the transfer of the Loan Assets to the Trust Depositor and the transfer
of the Loan Assets to the Issuer are intended to be a sale, conveyance and
transfer of ownership of the Loan Assets, as the case may be, rather than the
mere granting of a security interest to secure a borrowing and (ii) such Loan
Assets shall not be part of the Originator's or the Trust Depositor's estate in
the event of a filing of a bankruptcy petition or other action by or against
such Person under any Insolvency Law. In the event, however, that
notwithstanding such intent and agreement, such transfers are deemed to

                                       44

<PAGE>

be of a mere security interest to secure indebtedness, the Originator shall be
deemed to have granted the Trust Depositor and the Trust Depositor shall be
deemed to have granted the Issuer, as the case may be, a perfected first
priority security interest in such Loan Assets respectively and this Agreement
shall constitute a security agreement under Requirements of Law, securing the
repayment of the purchase price paid hereunder, the obligations and/or interests
represented by the Securities and the obligations of the Issuer under the Hedge
Transactions and the Hedge Agreements, in the order and priorities, and subject
to the other terms and conditions of, this Agreement, the Indenture, the Trust
Agreement and the Hedge Agreements, together with such other obligations or
interests as may arise hereunder and thereunder in favor of the parties hereto
and thereto.

         (f)      If any such transfer of the Loan Assets is deemed to be the
mere granting of a security interest to secure a borrowing, the Trust Depositor
may, to secure the Trust Depositor's own borrowing under this Agreement (to the
extent that the transfer of the Loan Assets thereunder is deemed to be a mere
granting of a security interest to secure a borrowing) repledge and reassign (1)
all or a portion of the Loan Assets pledged to Trust Depositor by the Originator
and with respect to which the Trust Depositor has not released its security
interest at the time of such pledge and assignment, and (2) all proceeds
thereof. Such repledge and reassignment may be made by Trust Depositor with or
without a repledge and reassignment by Trust Depositor of its rights under any
agreement with the Originator, and without further notice to or acknowledgment
from the Originator. The Originator waives, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, all claims, causes of action and remedies, whether legal or
equitable (including any right of setoff), against Trust Depositor or any
assignee of Trust Depositor relating to such action by Trust Depositor in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Depositor and of the Originator that such conditions have been or will be, as of
the related Subsequent Transfer Date, satisfied):

                  (i)      the Trust Depositor shall have provided the Owner
         Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with a timely Addition Notice
         complying with the definition thereof contained herein, which Addition
         Notice shall in any event be no later than ten (10) Business Days prior
         to the date of addition;

                  (ii)     there shall have occurred, with respect to each such
         Substitute Loan, a corresponding Substitution Event with respect to one
         or more Loans then in the Loan Pool;

                  (iii)    the Substitute Loan(s) being conveyed to the Issuer
         satisfy the Substitute Loan Qualification Conditions;

                  (iv)     the Originator shall have delivered to the Trust
         Depositor a duly executed written assignment in substantially the form
         of Exhibit J hereto (the "Subsequent Purchase Agreement"), which shall
         include a Subsequent List of Loans listing the Substitute Loans;

                  (v)      the Trust Depositor shall have delivered to the
         Issuer a duly executed written assignment (including an acceptance by
         the Owner Trustee) in substantially the form of Exhibit I hereto (the
         "Subsequent Transfer Agreement"), which shall include a Subsequent List
         of Loans listing the Substitute Loans;

                  (vi)     the Trust Depositor shall have deposited or caused to
         be deposited in the Principal and Interest Account all Principal
         Collections and Interest Collections received with respect to the
         Substitute Loans on and after the related Subsequent Cut-Off Date;

                  (vii)    each of the representations and warranties made by
         the Trust Depositor pursuant to Sections 3.02, 3.03(i), (ii) and (iv),
         3.04, and 3.05 applicable to the Substitute Loans (including without
         limitation that each such Substitute Loan is an Eligible Loan) shall be
         true and correct as of the related Subsequent Transfer Date; provided,
         however, that, (A) with respect to the representation and warranty made
         by the Trust Depositor in subsection 3.05(a), such representation and
         warranty shall only apply to a Loan that is being substituted for a
         Loan that is not an Eligible Loan and (B) with respect to the
         representations and warranties made by the Trust Depositor in
         subsections 3.03(iv) and

                                       48

<PAGE>

         3.05, such representations and warranties shall be determined based
         upon the Outstanding Loan Balances of the Substitute Loans as of the
         applicable Subsequent Transfer Date over the Initial Aggregate
         Outstanding Loan Balance;

                  (viii)   the Originator shall, at its own expense, on or prior
         to the Subsequent Transfer Date, indicate in its Computer Records that
         ownership of the Substitute Loans identified on the Subsequent List of
         Loans in the Subsequent Transfer Agreement has been sold to the Issuer
         through the Trust Depositor pursuant to this Agreement; and

                  (ix)     prior to such substitution the Originator has
         received written confirmation from the Rating Agencies (which shall
         respond to the Originator within fifteen (15) Business Days after
         receiving written notice from the Originator of its intention to
         substitute a Loan and, in the case of Fitch, only after it has received
         from the Originator financial statements, credit committee papers and
         such other information relating to such Substitute Loan as is
         reasonably requested by Fitch) that the proposed substitution will not
         result in a reduction or withdrawal of the rating on the Class A Notes,
         Class B Notes, the Class C Notes or, if applicable, the Class D Notes;
         provided, however, that any failure by each of the Rating Agencies to
         respond to the Originator shall be deemed a non-approval by the Rating
         Agencies; provided, further, however, with respect to the substitution
         of a Prepaid Loan, only notice to, not confirmation from, Fitch shall
         be required.

         SECTION 2.05 RELEASE OF RELEASED AMOUNTS.

         (a)      The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Issuer has
no interest in the Retained Interest and Released Amounts. The Indenture Trustee
hereby agrees to release to the Issuer from the Loan Assets, and the Issuer
hereby agrees to release to the Trust Depositor, an amount equal to the Released
Amounts immediately upon identification thereof and upon receipt of an Officer's
Certificate of the Servicer, which release shall be automatic and shall require
no further act by the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer; provided, that, the
Indenture Trustee and Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments
of release and assignment or other documents, or otherwise confirm the foregoing
release, as may reasonably be requested by the Trust Depositor in writing. Such
Released Amounts shall not constitute and shall not be included in the Loan
Assets.

         (b)      Immediately upon the release to the Trust Depositor by the
Indenture Trustee of the Released Amounts, the Trust Depositor hereby
irrevocably agrees to release to the Originator such Released Amounts, which
release shall be automatic and shall require no further act by the Trust
Depositor; provided, that, the Trust Depositor shall execute and deliver such
instruments of release and assignment, or otherwise confirming the foregoing
release of any Released Amounts, as may be reasonably requested by the
Originator.

         SECTION 2.06 DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS IN THE LOAN FILE; RECORDING OF
                      ASSIGNMENTS OF MORTGAGE.

         (a)      Subject to the delivery requirements set forth in Section
2.06(b), the Issuer hereby authorizes and directs the Originator and the Trust
Depositor to deliver possession of all the

                                       49

<PAGE>

Loan Files to the Indenture Trustee (with copies to be held by the Servicer) on
behalf of and for the account of the Securityholders and the Hedge
Counterparties. The Originator and the Trust Depositor shall also identify on
the List of Loans (including any deemed amendment thereof associated with any
Substitute Loans), whether by attached schedule or marking or other effective
identifying designation, all Loans that are or are evidenced by such
instruments.

         (b)      With respect to each Loan in the Loan Pool on or before the
related Transfer Date, the Trust Depositor will deliver or cause to be delivered
to the Indenture Trustee, to the extent not previously delivered, each of the
documents in the Loan File with respect to such Loan, except that (i) the
original recorded Mortgage, in those instances where a copy thereof certified by
the Originator was delivered to the Indenture Trustee, will be delivered or
caused to be delivered within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof, and
in any event within one (1) year after the related Transfer Date, and (ii) any
intervening Assignments of Mortgage, in those instances where copies thereof
certified by the Originator were delivered to the Indenture Trustee, will be
delivered or caused to be delivered within ten (10) Business Days after the
receipt thereof, and in any event, within one (1) year of the related Transfer
Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section
2.06(b), in those instances where the public recording office retains the
original Mortgage or the intervening Assignments of the Mortgage after it has
been recorded, the Trust Depositor shall be deemed to have satisfied its
obligations hereunder upon delivery to the Indenture Trustee of a copy of such
Mortgage or Assignments of Mortgage certified by the public recording office to
be a true copy of the recorded original thereof.

         (c)      Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default or a Servicer
Default, the Indenture Trustee shall not record the Assignments of Mortgage
delivered pursuant to Section 2.06(b). Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default or a Servicer Default, the Indenture Trustee shall cause to be recorded
in the appropriate offices each Assignment of Mortgage delivered to it. Each
such recording shall be at the expense of the Servicer; provided, however, to
the extent the Servicer does not pay such expense then the Indenture Trustee
shall be reimbursed pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.05.

         SECTION 2.07 OPTIONAL PURCHASE OR SUBSTITUTION BY THE SERVICER FOR
                      PREPAID OR CHARGED-OFF LOANS.

         The Servicer shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase,
or substitute for, any Prepaid Loan, Charged-Off Loan, Delinquent Loan or a Loan
that has a material covenant default, subject to the limitations set forth in
this Section 2.07. In the case of a purchase, the Servicer shall deposit in the
Principal and Interest Account, on the next succeeding Determination Date, an
amount equal to the Transfer Deposit Amount for such Loan (or applicable portion
thereof) as of the date of such purchase. In the case of a substitution, the
Servicer shall deliver to the Issuer one or more Substitute Loans satisfying the
Substitute Loan Qualification Conditions. Any such substitution shall be made in
accordance with the provisions of Section 2.04. On the date of such
substitution, the Servicer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee a certificate
stating that such Loan satisfies each of the Substitute Loan Qualification
Conditions. The Servicer, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall execute and
deliver such instruments, consents or other documents and perform all acts
reasonably requested by the Servicer in order to effect the transfer and release
of any of the Issuer's interests in the Loans that

                                       50

<PAGE>

are being purchased or substituted. In no event, however, may the initial
aggregate Outstanding Loan Balance of (a) Prepaid Loans, Charged-Off Loans,
Delinquent Loans and Loans that have a material covenant default purchased or
substituted for pursuant to this Section 2.07, and (b) Prepaid Loans,
Charged-Off Loans, Delinquent Loans and Loans that have a material covenant
default substituted pursuant to Section 2.04 exceed 20% of the Initial Aggregate
Outstanding Loan Balance.

         SECTION 2.08 CERTIFICATION BY INDENTURE TRUSTEE; POSSESSION OF LOAN
                      FILES.

         (a)      On or prior to the applicable Transfer Date, the Indenture
Trustee shall review the portion of the Loan File required to be delivered
pursuant to Section 2.06(b) on the applicable Transfer Date and shall deliver to
the Originator, the Trust Depositor, each Hedge Counterparty and the Servicer a
certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L-1 on or prior to such
Transfer Date. Within two (2) Business Days after the Indenture Trustee receives
the portion of the Loan File permitted to be delivered after the applicable
Transfer Date pursuant to Section 2.06(b), the Indenture Trustee shall deliver
to the Originator, the Trust Depositor, each Hedge Counterparty and the Servicer
a certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L-1. Within 360 days
after each Transfer Date (or, with respect to any Substitute Loan, within 360
days after the assignment thereof), the Indenture Trustee shall deliver to the
Originator, the Servicer, the Trust Depositor, each Hedge Counterparty and any
Noteholder who requests a copy from the Indenture Trustee a final certification
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L-2 evidencing the completeness of the
Loan Files with respect to the Loans being transferred on such Transfer Date.

         (b)      If the Indenture Trustee during the process of reviewing the
Loan Files finds any document constituting a part of a Loan File which is not
properly executed, has not been received, is unrelated to a Loan identified in
the List of Loans, or does not conform in a material respect to the requirements
of the definition of Loan File, or the description thereof as set forth in the
List of Loans, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly so notify the Originator,
the Trust Depositor and the Servicer. In performing any such review, the
Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on the Originator as to the purported
genuineness of any such document and any signature thereon. It is understood
that the scope of the Indenture Trustee's review of the Loan Files is limited
solely to confirming that the documents listed in the definition of Loan File
have been executed and received and relate to the Loans identified in the List
of Loans; provided, however, with respect to the UCC financing statements
referenced in clause (a)(iii) of the definition of Required Loan Documents, the
Indenture Trustee's sole responsibility will be to confirm that the Loan File
contains UCC financing statements and not to make determinations about the
materiality of such UCC financing statements. The Originator agrees to use
reasonable efforts to remedy a material defect in a document constituting part
of a Loan File of which it is so notified by the Indenture Trustee. If, however,
within thirty (30) days after the Indenture Trustee's notice to it respecting
such material defect the Originator has not remedied the defect and such defect
materially and adversely affects the value of the related Loan, such Loan will
be treated as an "Ineligible Loan" and the Originator will (i) substitute in
lieu of such Loan a Substitute Loan in the manner and subject to the conditions
set forth in Section 11.01 or (ii) repurchase such Loan at a purchase price
equal to the Transfer Deposit Amount, which purchase price shall be deposited in
the Principal and Interest Account within such thirty (30) day period.

                                       51

<PAGE>

         (c)      Release of Entire Loan File Upon Substitution. Subject to
Section 5.08(a), upon receipt by the Indenture Trustee of a certification of a
Servicing Officer of the Servicer of such substitution or of such purchase and
the deposit of the amounts described in Section 2.08(b) in the Principal and
Interest Account (which certification shall be in the form of Exhibit M hereto),
the Indenture Trustee shall release to the Servicer for release to the
Originator the related Loan File and the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer shall
execute, without recourse, and deliver such instruments of transfer necessary to
transfer all right, title and interest in such Loan to the Originator free and
clear of any Liens created by the Transaction Documents. All costs of any such
transfer shall be borne by the Servicer.

         (d)      Partial Release of Loan File and/or Collateral. Subject to
Section 5.08(b), if in connection with taking any action in connection with a
Loan (including, without limitation, the amendment to documents in the Loan File
and/or a revision to Collateral) the Servicer requires any item constituting
part of the Loan File, or the release from the Lien of the related Loan of all
or part of any Collateral, the Servicer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee a
certificate to such effect in the form attached as Exhibit M hereto. Subject to
Section 5.08(d), upon receipt of such certification, the Indenture Trustee shall
deliver to the Servicer within two (2) Business Days of such request (if such
request was received by 2:00 p.m., central time), the requested documentation,
and the Indenture Trustee shall execute, without recourse, and deliver such
instruments of transfer necessary to release all or the requested part of the
Collateral from the Lien of the related Loan and/or the Lien under the
Transaction Documents.

         (e)      Annual Certification. On the Remittance Date in April of each
year, commencing April 2004, the Indenture Trustee shall deliver to the
Originator, the Trust Depositor, each Hedge Counterparty and the Servicer a
certification detailing all transactions with respect to the Loans for which the
Indenture Trustee holds the Loan Files pursuant to this Agreement during the
prior calendar year. Such certification shall list all Loan Files which were
released by or returned to the Indenture Trustee during the prior calendar year,
the date of such release or return and the reason for such release or return.

                                   ARTICLE 3.

                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

         The Trust Depositor makes, and upon execution of each Subsequent
Purchase Agreement is deemed to make, the following representations and
warranties in Section 3.01 through Section 3.05, on which the Issuer will rely
in purchasing the Loan Assets on the Closing Date (and on any Subsequent
Transfer Date), and on which the Securityholders and the Hedge Counterparties
will rely.

         Such representations and warranties are given as of the execution and
delivery of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date (or Subsequent Transfer
Date, as applicable), but shall survive the sale, transfer and assignment of the
Loan Assets to the Issuer. The repurchase obligation or substitution obligation
of the Trust Depositor set forth in Section 11.01 constitutes the sole remedy
available for a breach of a representation or warranty of the Trust Depositor
set forth in Section 3.01 through Section 3.05 of this Agreement. Except as
otherwise provided in Section 2.04(c)(vii), the Trust Depositor shall not be
deemed to be remaking any of the

                                       52

<PAGE>

representations set forth in Section 3.03 on a Subsequent Transfer Date with
respect to the Substitute Loans, as such representations relate solely to the
composition of the Initial Loans conveyed on the Closing Date.

         SECTION 3.01 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES REGARDING THE TRUST
                      DEPOSITOR.

         By its execution of this Agreement and each Subsequent Transfer
Agreement, the Trust Depositor represents and warrants to the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee, the Securityholders and the Hedge Counterparties that:

         (a)      Organization and Good Standing. The Trust Depositor is a
limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of Delaware and has the power to own its assets and to transact
the business in which it is currently engaged. The Trust Depositor is duly
qualified to do business as a foreign entity and is in good standing in each
jurisdiction in which the character of the business transacted by it or
properties owned or leased by it requires such qualification and in which the
failure so to qualify would have a material adverse effect on the business,
properties, assets, or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Trust Depositor
or the Issuer.

         (b)      Authorization; Valid Sale; Binding Obligations. The Trust
Depositor has the power and authority to make, execute, deliver and perform this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and all of
the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents to which it is a party, and to create the Issuer and cause it to make,
execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents to which it is a party and has taken all necessary
corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and to
cause the Issuer to be created. This Agreement and each Subsequent Transfer
Agreement, if any, shall effect a valid sale, transfer and assignment of or
grant a security interest in the Loan Assets from the Trust Depositor to the
Issuer, enforceable against the Trust Depositor and creditors of and purchasers
from the Trust Depositor. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to
which the Trust Depositor is a party constitute the legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Trust Depositor enforceable in accordance with their terms,
except as enforcement of such terms may be limited by applicable Insolvency Laws
and general principles of equity, whether considered in a suit at law or in
equity.

         (c)      No Consent Required. The Trust Depositor is not required to
obtain the consent of any other party (other than those that it has already
obtained) or any consent, license, approval or authorization from, or
registration or declaration with, any Governmental Authority (other than those
that it has already obtained) in connection with the execution, delivery,
performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or the other
Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

         (d)      No Violations. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party by the
Trust Depositor, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
and thereby, will not violate any Requirement of Law applicable to the Trust
Depositor, or conflict with, result in a default under

                                       53
<PAGE>

or constitute a breach of the Trust Depositor's organizational documents or
Contractual Obligations to which the Trust Depositor is a party or by which the
Trust Depositor or any of the Trust Depositor's properties may be bound, or
result in the creation or imposition of any Lien of any kind upon any of its
properties pursuant to the terms of any such Contractual Obligations, other than
as contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

         (e)      Litigation. No litigation or administrative proceeding of or
before any court, tribunal or governmental body is currently pending, or to the
knowledge of the Trust Depositor threatened, against the Trust Depositor or any
of its properties or with respect to this Agreement, the other Transaction
Documents to which it is a party or the Securities (i) that, if adversely
determined, would in the reasonable judgment of the Trust Depositor be expected
to have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets or
condition (financial or otherwise) of the Trust Depositor or the Issuer or the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents
to which the Trust Depositor is a party or (ii) seeking to adversely affect the
federal income tax or other federal, state or local tax attributes of the
Certificate or Notes.

         (f)      Solvency. The Trust Depositor, at the time of and after giving
effect to each conveyance of Loan Assets hereunder, is Solvent on and as of the
date thereof.

         (g)      Taxes. The Trust Depositor has filed or caused to be filed all
tax returns which, to its knowledge, are required to be filed and has put all
taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns or on any assessments made
against it or any of its property and all other taxes, fees or other charges
imposed on it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority (other than
any amount of tax due, the validity of which is currently being contested in
good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been provided on
the books of the Trust Depositor); no tax Lien has been filed and, to the Trust
Depositor's knowledge, no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such tax,
fee or other charge.

         (h)      Place of Business; No Changes. The Trust Depositor's location
(within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC) is as set forth in Section 13.04.
The Trust Depositor has not changed its name, whether by amendment of its
certificate of formation, by reorganization or otherwise, and has not changed
its location within the four (4) months preceding the Closing Date.

         (i)      Not an Investment Company. The Trust Depositor is not required
to register as an "investment company" under the 40 Act.

         (j)      Sale Treatment. Other than for tax and accounting purposes,
the Trust Depositor has treated the transfer of Loan Assets to the Trust
Depositor for all purposes as a sale and purchase on all of its relevant books
and records and other applicable documents.

         (k)      Security Interest.

                  (i)      This Agreement creates a valid and continuing
         security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Loan Assets
         in favor of the Issuer, which security interest is prior to all other
         Liens (except for Permitted Liens), and is enforceable as such against
         creditors of and purchasers from the Trust Depositor;

                                       54
<PAGE>

                  (ii)     such Loans, along with the related Loan Files,
         constitute either a "general intangible," an "instrument," an
         "account," "investment property," or "chattel paper," within the
         meaning of the applicable UCC;

                  (iii)    the Issuer owns and has good and marketable title to
         such Loan Assets free and clear of any Lien (other than Permitted
         Liens), claim or encumbrance of any Person;

                  (iv)     the Trust Depositor has received all consents and
         approvals required by the terms of the Loan Assets to the sale of the
         Loan Assets hereunder to the Issuer;

                  (v)      the Trust Depositor has caused the filing of all
         appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the
         appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the
         security interest in such Loan Assets granted to the Issuer under this
         Agreement;

                  (vi)     other than the security interest granted to the
         Issuer pursuant to this Agreement, the Trust Depositor has not pledged,
         assigned, sold, granted a security interest in or otherwise conveyed
         any of such Loan Assets. The Trust Depositor has not authorized the
         filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the
         Trust Depositor that include a description of collateral covering such
         Loan Assets other than any financing statement (A) relating to the
         security interest granted to the Trust Depositor under the Loan Sale
         Agreement, or (B) that has been terminated. The Trust Depositor is not
         aware of the filing of any judgment or tax Lien filings against the
         Trust Depositor;

                  (vii)    all original executed copies of each Underlying Note
         that constitute or evidence the Loan Assets have been delivered to the
         Indenture Trustee;

                  (viii)   the Trust Depositor has received a written
         acknowledgment from the Indenture Trustee that the Indenture Trustee or
         its bailee is holding the Underlying Notes that constitute or evidence
         the Loan Assets solely on behalf of and for the benefit of the
         Securityholders and the Hedge Counterparties; and

                  (ix)     none of the Underlying Notes that constitute or
         evidence the Loan Assets has any marks or notations indicating that
         they have been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person
         other than the Issuer.

         (l)      Value Given. The cash payments received by the Trust Depositor
in respect of the purchase price of each Loan sold hereunder constitutes the
face value of such Loan and the reasonably equivalent value in consideration for
the transfer to the Issuer of such Loan under this Agreement, such transfer was
not made for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by the Originator to the
Trust Depositor, and such transfer was not and is not voidable or subject to
avoidance under any Insolvency Law.

         (m)      Investment Company. The Issuer is not required to be
registered as an "investment company" within the meaning of the 40 Act.

                                       55
<PAGE>

         (n)      No Defaults. The Trust Depositor is in not default with
respect to any order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand
of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default might
have consequences that would materially and adversely affect the condition
(financial or otherwise) or operations of the Trust Depositor or its respective
properties or might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect
its performance hereunder.

         (o)      Bulk Transfer Laws. The transfer, assignment and conveyance of
the Loans by the Trust Depositor pursuant to this Agreement are not subject to
the bulk transfer laws or any similar statutory provisions in effect in any
applicable jurisdiction.

         (p)      Origination and Collection Practices. The origination and
collection practices used with respect to each Loan have been in all material
respects legal, proper and prudent and comply with the Credit and Collection

the Loans.

         (r)      Lack of Intent to Hinder, Delay or Defraud. Neither the Trust

         (s)      Nonconsolidation. The Trust Depositor conducts its affairs
such that the Issuer would not be substantively consolidated in the estate of

disregarded in the event of the Trust Depositor's bankruptcy.

         (t)      Accuracy of Information. All written factual information

Custodial Agreement are fully assignable and have been assigned by it to the
Trust Depositor, and assigned by the Trust Depositor to the Issuer in connection
with the transfer of the Loan Assets.

         SECTION 3.03 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES REGARDING THE INITIAL
                      LOANS IN THE AGGREGATE.

         SECTION 3.06 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES REGARDING THE SERVICER.

         The Servicer represents and warrants to the Owner Trustee, the
Indenture Trustee, the Securityholders and the Hedge Counterparties that:

         (a)      Organization and Good Standing. The Servicer is a limited
liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and has the limited liability
company power to own its assets and to transact the business in which it is
currently engaged. The Servicer is duly qualified to do business as a foreign
limited liability company and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which
the character of the business transacted by it or properties owned or leased by
it requires such qualification and in which the failure so to qualify would have
a material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, or condition
(financial or otherwise) of the Servicer or the Issuer. The Servicer is properly
licensed in each jurisdiction to the extent required by the laws of such
jurisdiction to service the Loans in accordance with the terms hereof and in
which the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect on the
business, properties, assets, or condition (financial or otherwise) of the
Servicer or Issuer.

         (b)      Authorization; Binding Obligations. The Servicer has the power
and authority to make, execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents to which the Servicer is a party and all of the
transactions contemplated under this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents to which the Servicer is a party, and has taken all necessary
corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Servicer is a party.
This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Servicer is a
party constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Servicer
enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as enforcement of such terms
may be limited by Insolvency Laws and general principles of equity, whether
considered in a suit at law or in equity.

         (c)      No Consent Required. The Servicer is not required to obtain
the consent of any other party (other than those that it has already obtained)
or any consent, license, approval or authorization from, or registration or
declaration with, any Governmental Authority (other than those that it has
already obtained) in connection with the execution, delivery, performance,

                                       58
<PAGE>

validity or enforceability of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents
to which the Servicer is a party.

         (d)      No Violations. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Servicer is a party
by the Servicer will not violate any Requirements of Law applicable to the
Servicer, or conflict with, result in a default under or constitute a breach of
the Servicer's organizational documents or any Contractual Obligations to which
the Servicer is a party or by which the Servicer or any of the Servicer's
properties may be bound, or result in the creation of or imposition of any Lien
of any kind upon any of its properties pursuant to the terms of any such
Contractual Obligations, other than as contemplated by the Transaction
Documents.

         (e)      Litigation. No litigation or administrative proceeding of or
before any court, tribunal or governmental body is currently pending, or to the
knowledge of the Servicer threatened, against the Servicer or any of its
properties or with respect to this Agreement, or any other Transaction Document
to which the Servicer is a party that, if adversely determined, would in the
reasonable judgment of the Servicer be expected to have a material adverse
effect on the business, properties, assets or condition (financial or otherwise)
of the Servicer or the Issuer or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
or any other Transaction Document to which the Servicer is a party.

         (f)      Reports. All reports, certificates and other written
information furnished by the Servicer with respect to the Loans are correct in
all material respects.

         SECTION 3.07 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE BACKUP SERVICER.

         The Backup Servicer hereby represents and warrants to the Owner
Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Securityholders and the Hedge
Counterparties, as follows:

         (a)      Organization. It is a national banking association duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the federal laws of the
United States with all requisite power and authority to own its properties and
to conduct its business as presently conducted and to enter into and perform its
obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

         (b)      Good Standing. The Backup Servicer is duly qualified to do
business as a national banking association and is in good standing, and has
obtained all necessary licenses and approvals, in all jurisdictions in which the
ownership or lease of its property and the conduct of its business requires such
qualification, licenses or approvals, except where the failure to so qualify or
have such licenses or approvals has not had, and would not be reasonably
expected to have, a material adverse effect on the interests of the
Securityholders or the Hedge Counterparties.

         (c)      Authorization. It has the power and authority to execute and
deliver this Agreement and to carry out its terms. It has duly authorized the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by all requisite action.

         (d)      No Violations. The consummation of the transactions
contemplated by, and the fulfillment of the terms of, this Agreement by it will
not violate any Requirements of Law or

                                       59
<PAGE>

conflict with, result in any breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or
constitute a default under, its organizational documents or any Contractual
Obligations by which it or any of its property is bound or result in the
creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its properties pursuant to the
terms of any Contractual Obligations.

         (e)      No Consent Required. No consent, approval, authorization,
order, registration, filing, qualification, license or permit of or with any
Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it or any of its respective
properties is required to be obtained in order for it to enter into this
Agreement or perform its obligations hereunder.

         (f)      Binding Obligation. This Agreement constitutes its legal,
valid and binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except
as such enforceability may be limited by applicable Insolvency Laws and general
principles of equity (whether considered in a suit at law or in equity).

         (g)      Litigation. There are no proceedings or investigations pending
or, to the best of its knowledge, threatened, against it before any Governmental
Authority (i) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement, (ii) seeking to
prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement or (iii) seeking any determination or ruling that might (in its
reasonable judgment) have a material adverse effect on the interests of the
Securityholders or the Hedge Counterparties.

                           PERFECTION OF TRANSFER AND
                        PROTECTION OF SECURITY INTERESTS

         SECTION 4.01 CUSTODY OF LOANS.

         The contents of each Loan File shall be held in the custody of the
Indenture Trustee under the Indenture for the benefit of, and as agent for, the
Securityholders and the Hedge Counterparties.

         SECTION 4.02 FILING.

         On or prior to the Closing Date, the Originator, Trust Depositor and
Servicer shall cause the UCC financing statement(s) referred to in Section
2.02(i) hereof to be filed, and from time to time the Servicer shall take and
cause to be taken such actions and execute such documents as are necessary or
desirable or as the Owner Trustee or Indenture Trustee (acting at the direction
of the Majority Noteholders or any Hedge Counterparty) may reasonably request to
perfect and protect the Indenture Trustee's first priority perfected security
interest in the Loan Assets against all other Persons, including, without
limitation, the filing of financing statements, amendments thereto and
continuation statements, the execution of transfer instruments and the making of
notations on or taking possession of all records or documents of title.
Notwithstanding the obligations of the Originator, Trust Depositor and Servicer
set forth in the preceding sentence, the Originator, Trust Depositor and
Servicer hereby authorize the Owner Trustee to prepare and file, at the expense
of the Servicer, UCC financing statements (including but not limited to renewal,
continuation or in lieu statements) and amendments or supplements thereto or
other

                                       60
<PAGE>

instruments as the Owner Trustee may from time to time deem necessary or
appropriate in order to perfect and maintain the security interest granted
hereunder in accordance with the UCC.

         SECTION 4.03 CHANGES IN NAME, CORPORATE STRUCTURE OR LOCATION.

         (a)      During the term of this Agreement, none of the Originator, the
Servicer, the Trust Depositor or the Issuer shall change its name, identity,
structure, existence, state of formation or location without first giving at
least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture
Trustee and each Hedge Counterparty.

         (b)      If any change in either the Servicer's, the Originator's or
the Trust Depositor's name, identity, structure, existence, state of formation,
location or other action would make any financing or continuation statement or
notice of ownership interest or Lien relating to any Loan Asset seriously
misleading within the meaning of applicable provisions of the UCC or any title
statute, the Servicer, no later than five (5) Business Days after the effective
date of such change, shall file such amendments as may be required to preserve
and protect the Indenture Trustee's security interest in the Loan Assets and the
proceeds thereof. Promptly after taking any of the foregoing actions, the
Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an Opinion
of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee
stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all financing statements or
amendments necessary to preserve and protect the Indenture Trustee's security
interest in the Loan Assets have been filed, and reciting the details of such
filing.

         SECTION 4.04 COSTS AND EXPENSES.

         The Servicer agrees to pay all reasonable costs and disbursements in
connection with the perfection and the maintenance of perfection, as against all
third parties, of the Trustees' and Issuer's right, title and interest in and to
the Loan Assets (including, without limitation, the security interest in the
Collateral related thereto and the security interests provided for in the
Indenture); provided, however, to the extent permitted by the Required Loan
Documents, the Servicer may seek reimbursement for such costs and disbursements
from the related Obligors.

         SECTION 4.05 SALE TREATMENT.

         Other than for tax and accounting purposes, the Trust Depositor shall
treat the transfer of Loan Assets made hereunder for all purposes as a sale and
purchase on all of its relevant books and records.

         SECTION 4.06 SEPARATENESS FROM TRUST DEPOSITOR.

         The Originator agrees to take or refrain from taking or engaging in
with respect to the Trust Depositor each of the actions or activities specified
in the "substantive consolidation" opinion of Patton Boggs LLP (including any
certificates of the Originator attached thereto) delivered on the Closing Date,
upon which the conclusions therein are based.

                                   ARTICLE 5.

<PAGE>

         SECTION 5.01 APPOINTMENT AND ACCEPTANCE.

         CapitalSource is hereby appointed as Servicer pursuant to this
Agreement. CapitalSource accepts the appointment and agrees to act as the
Servicer pursuant to this Agreement.

         SECTION 5.02 DUTIES OF THE SERVICER.

         (a)      The Servicer, as an independent contract servicer, shall
service and administer the Loans and shall have full power and authority, acting
alone, to do any and all things in connection with such servicing and
administration which the Servicer may deem necessary or desirable and consistent
with the terms of this Agreement and the Credit and Collection Policy. The
Servicer may enter into Subservicing Agreements for any servicing and
administration of Loans with any entity provided the Rating Agency Condition is
satisfied. The Servicer shall be entitled to terminate any Subservicing
Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Subservicing
Agreement and to either itself directly service the related Loans or enter into
a Subservicing Agreement with a successor Subservicer which qualifies hereunder.

         (b)      Notwithstanding any Subservicing Agreement, any of the
provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the
Servicer and a Subservicer or reference to actions taken through a Subservicer
or otherwise, so long as this Agreement shall remain effective, the Servicer
shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the Indenture Trustee, for itself
and on behalf of the Securityholders and the Hedge Counterparties, for the
servicing and administering of the Loans in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement and the Credit and Collection Policy, without diminution of such
obligation or liability by virtue of such Subservicing 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 Servicer alone
were servicing and administering the Loans. For purposes of this Agreement, the
Servicer shall be deemed to have received payments on Loans when any Subservicer
has received such payments. The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any
agreement with a Subservicer for indemnification of the Servicer by such
Subservicer, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or
modify such indemnification.

         (c)      Any Subservicing Agreement that may be entered into and any
transactions or services relating to the Loans involving a Subservicer in its
capacity as such and not as an originator shall be deemed to be between the
Subservicer and the Servicer alone, and the Indenture Trustee, the
Securityholders and the Hedge Counterparties shall not be deemed parties thereto
and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with
respect to the Subservicer except as set forth in Section 5.02(d).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall (i) at its expense and without
reimbursement, deliver to the Indenture Trustee a copy of each Subservicing
Agreement and (ii) provide notice of the termination of any Subservicer within a
reasonable time after such Subservicer's termination to the Indenture Trustee.

         (d)      In the event the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be
the Servicer, the Servicer at its expense and without right of reimbursement
therefor, shall, upon request of the Indenture Trustee, deliver to the Successor
Servicer all documents and records (including computer tapes and diskettes)
relating to each Subservicing Agreement and the Loans then being serviced
hereunder and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it hereunder and

                                       62
<PAGE>

otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of
the Subservicing Agreements to the assuming party.

         (e)      Modifications and Waivers Relating to Loans. So long as it is
consistent with the Credit and Collection Policy, the Servicer may waive, modify
or vary any term of any Loan if in the Servicer's determination such waiver,
modification or variance will not be materially adverse to the interests of the
Noteholders or the Hedge Counterparties; provided, however, the Servicer may not
waive, modify or vary any Loan in any manner that would extend the amortization
of such Loan beyond the Legal Final Maturity Date; provided, further, however,
if any such Loan is amended, modified, waived or varied due to an Obligor's
inability to pay principal or interest, then the Loan shall be treated as a
Delinquent Loan as of the date that is one (1) day in case of Asset Based
Revolvers or sixty (60) days in the case of all other Loans after such
delinquent payment was first due if all delinquencies have not been cured within
that one (1) day or sixty (60) day period, as applicable. The Servicer may
execute any waivers, modifications or variances on behalf of the Issuer. The
Servicer will provide Moody's with a copy of any waiver, modification or
variance promptly after its execution. No costs incurred by the Servicer or any
Subservicer in respect of Servicing Advances shall for the purposes of
distributions to Noteholders or Hedge Counterparties be added to the amount
owing under the related Loan. Any fees and costs imposed in connection therewith
may be retained by the Servicer. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, so long as it is consistent with the Credit and Collection Policy,
the Servicer shall continue, and is hereby authorized and empowered to execute
and deliver on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, each
Securityholder and each Hedge Counterparty, all instruments of amendment,
waiver, satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release, discharge
and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Loans and with respect
to any Collateral. Such authority shall include, but not be limited to, the
authority to substitute or release items of Collateral consistent with the
Credit and Collection Policy and sell participations or assignments in Loans
previously transferred to the Issuer. In connection with any such sale, the
Servicer shall deposit in the Principal and Interest Account, pursuant to
Section 7.03(b), all proceeds received upon such sale. If reasonably required by
the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, shall furnish the
Servicer, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of the Servicer's request,
with any powers of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to
enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under
this Agreement. Any such request to the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the
Issuer, shall be accompanied by a certification in the form of Exhibit L
attached hereto signed by a Servicing Officer. In connection with any
substitution of Collateral, the Servicer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee
the items, and within the time frame, set forth in Section 2.06, assuming that
the date of substitution is the relevant "Transfer Date."

         (f)      The Servicer, in servicing and administering the Loans, shall
act in good faith, exercise commercially reasonable judgment and reasonable
care, consistent with the Credit and Collection Policy, employ or cause to be
employed procedures (including collection, foreclosure, Foreclosed Property and
Repossessed Collateral management procedures), prudent lending standards and
exercise a degree of skill and attention not less than that which it customarily
employs and exercises in servicing and administering loans for its own account
and in a manner consistent with those policies and procedures as are customarily
used by reasonable and prudent servicers of national repute in connection with
servicing of assets of the nature and of the

                                       63
<PAGE>

character of the Loans, giving due consideration to the Noteholders' and Hedge
Counterparties' reliance on the Servicer.

         (g)      Hedge Covenants.

                  (i)      So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, if on
         any date either:

                           (A)      the then current Aggregate Notional Amount
                  of all Hedge Transactions (excluding any interest rate cap
                  transactions) hedging the Fixed Rate Loans exceeds the then
                  Outstanding Loan Balance of the Fixed Rate Loans for the
                  corresponding Due Period by more than the Fixed Rate Permitted
                  Excess Amount; or

                           (B)      the Aggregate Notional Amount for any future
                  calculation period of all Hedge Transactions (excluding any
                  interest rate cap transactions) hedging the Fixed Rate Loans
                  exceeds the projected Outstanding Loan Balance of the Fixed
                  Rate Loans for the corresponding Due Period by more than the
                  Fixed Rate Permitted Excess Amount;

then, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Determination Date
preceding the next Remittance Date, the Servicer will notify the Indenture
Trustee, the Hedge Counterparties and the Rating Agencies of such event and with
effect on such next Remittance Date one or more of the Hedge Transactions
(excluding any interest rate cap transactions) hedging the Fixed Rate Loans will
be reduced or amended in accordance with the terms of the applicable Hedge
Agreements so that the Aggregate Notional Amount for each calculation period of
the Hedge Transactions hedging the Fixed Rate Loans will not exceed the
Outstanding Loan Balance of the Fixed Rate Loans at the end of the corresponding
Due Period or as projected to be outstanding at the end of the corresponding Due
Period.

                  (ii)     So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, if on
         any date either:

                           (A)      the then current Aggregate Notional Amount
                  of all Hedge Transactions (excluding any interest rate cap
                  transactions) hedging the Floating Prime Rate Loans exceeds
                  the then Outstanding Loan Balance of the Floating Prime Rate
                  Loans for the corresponding Due Period by more than the
                  Floating Prime Rate Permitted Excess Amount; or

                           (B)      the Aggregate Notional Amount for any future
                  calculation period of all Hedge Transactions (excluding any
                  interest rate cap transactions) hedging the Floating Prime
                  Rate Loans exceeds the projected Outstanding Loan Balance of
                  the Floating Prime Rate Loans for the corresponding Due Period
                  by more than the Floating Prime Rate Permitted Excess Amount;

then, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Determination Date
preceding the next Remittance Date, the Servicer will notify the Indenture
Trustee, the Hedge Counterparties and the Rating Agencies of such event and with
effect on such next Remittance Date one or more of the Hedge Transactions
hedging the Floating Prime Rate Loans will be reduced or amended in accordance
with the terms of the applicable Hedge Agreements so that the Aggregate Notional

                                       64
<PAGE>

Amount of the Hedge Transactions (excluding any interest rate cap transactions)
hedging the Floating Prime Rate Loans will not exceed the Outstanding Loan
Balance of the Floating Prime Rate Loans at the end of the corresponding Due
Period or as projected to be outstanding at the end of the corresponding Due
Period.

                  (iii)    So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, if on
         any date either:

                           (A)      the then current Aggregate Notional Amount
                  of all Hedge Transactions (excluding any interest rate cap
                  transactions) under all Hedge Agreements then in effect
                  exceeds the then Aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance; or

                           (B)      the Aggregate Notional Amount of all Hedge
                  Transactions (excluding any interest rate cap transactions)
                  for any future calculation period under all Hedge Agreements
                  then in effect exceeds the projected Aggregate Outstanding
                  Principal Balance for the corresponding Interest Accrual
                  Period;

then, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Determination Date
preceding the next Remittance Date, the Servicer will notify the Indenture
Trustee, the Hedge Counterparties and the Rating Agencies of such event and with
effect on such next Remittance Date one or more of the Hedge Transactions
(excluding any interest rate cap transactions) will be reduced or amended in
accordance with the terms of the applicable Hedge Agreements so that the
Aggregate Notional Amount of the Hedge Transactions for any future calculation
period will not exceed the Aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of the Notes
for the corresponding Interest Accrual Period.

         (h)      In accordance with the power set forth in Section 2.01(a), the
Servicer shall perform the duties of the Issuer and the Owner Trustee under the
Transaction Documents. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Servicer shall
consult with the Owner Trustee as the Servicer deems appropriate regarding the
duties of the Issuer and the Owner Trustee under the Transaction Documents. The
Servicer shall monitor the performance of the Issuer and the Owner Trustee and
shall advise the Owner Trustee when action is necessary to comply with the
Issuer's or the Owner Trustee's duties under the Transaction Documents. The
Servicer shall prepare for execution by the Owner Trustee or the Issuer or shall
cause the preparation by other appropriate Persons of all such documents,
reports, filings, instruments, certificates and opinions as it shall be the duty
of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee to prepare, file or deliver pursuant to the
Transaction Documents.

         (i)      In addition to the duties of the Servicer set forth in this
Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents, the Servicer shall perform such
calculations and shall prepare for execution by the Issuer or the Owner Trustee
or shall cause the preparation by other appropriate Persons of all such
documents, reports, filings, instruments, certificates and opinions as it shall
be the duty of the Issuer to prepare, file or deliver pursuant to state and
federal tax and securities laws. In accordance with the directions of the Issuer
or the Owner Trustee, the Servicer shall administer, perform or supervise the
performance of such other activities in connection with the Issuer as are not
covered by any of the foregoing provisions and as are expressly requested by the
Issuer or the Owner Trustee and are reasonably within the capability of the
Servicer.

                                       65
<PAGE>

         (j)      Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any of the
Transaction Documents to the contrary, the Servicer shall be responsible for
promptly (upon knowledge thereof) notifying the Owner Trustee and the Paying
Agent in the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Issuer's payments
(or allocations of income) to a Securityholder. Any such notice shall be in
writing and specify the amount of any withholding tax required to be withheld by
the Owner Trustee or the Paying Agent pursuant to such provision.

         (k)      All tax returns will be signed by the Servicer on behalf of
the Issuer.

         (l)      The Servicer shall maintain appropriate books of account and
records relating to services performed under this Agreement, which books of
account and records shall be reasonably accessible for inspection by the Owner
Trustee and each Hedge Counterparty at any time during normal business hours.

         (m)      Without the prior written consent of the Majority Noteholders
and the Hedge Counterparties, the Servicer shall not agree or consent to, or
otherwise permit to occur, any amendment, modification, change, supplement or
rescission of or to the Credit and Collection Policy, in whole or in part, in
any manner that could have a material adverse effect on the Loans.

         (n)      For so long as any of the Notes are outstanding and are
"restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) of the Securities
Act, (i) the Servicer will provide or cause to be provided to any holder of such
Notes and any prospective purchaser thereof designated by such holder, upon the
request of such a holder or prospective purchaser, the information required to
be provided to such holder or prospective purchaser by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the
Securities Act; and (ii) the Servicer shall update such information from time to
time in order to prevent such information from becoming false and misleading and
will take such other actions as are necessary to ensure that the safe harbor
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under Rule
144A is and will be available for resales of such Notes conducted in accordance
with Rule 144A.

         (o)      The Servicer will keep in full force and effect its existence,
rights and franchise as a Delaware limited liability company, and the Servicer
shall obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign limited
liability company in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall
be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement and of
any of the Loans and to perform its duties under this Agreement.

         (p)      The Servicer shall be obligated to make the Servicing Advances
(but not Scheduled Payment Advances) incurred in the performance of its
servicing duties hereunder. The Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for
such Servicing Advances from the Collections received from the Loan to which
such Servicing Advances relate pursuant to Section 5.10(d) and Section 7.03(h).
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall the
application of Servicing Advances or Scheduled Payment Advances prevent a Loan
from being or becoming a Delinquent Loan or Charged-Off Loan, as applicable.

         (q)      The Servicer is not responsible for any taxes on the Issuer or
any Servicing Fees to any Successor Servicer.

                                       66
<PAGE>

         (r)      All payments (other than Prepayments) received on Loans will
be applied by the Servicer to amounts due by the Obligor starting with the most
recent Scheduled Payment.

         (s)      The Servicer shall be responsible for any tax reporting,
disclosure, record keeping or list maintenance requirements of the Issuer under
Internal Revenue Code Sections 6011(a), 6111(d) or 6112, including, but not
limited to, the preparation of IRS Form 8886 pursuant to Federal Income Tax
Regulations Section 1.6011-4(d) or any successor provision and any required list
maintenance under Federal Income Tax Regulations Section 301.6112-1 or any
successor provision.

         SECTION 5.03 LIQUIDATION OF LOANS.

         (a)      In the event that any payment due under any Loan and not
postponed pursuant to Section 5.02 is not paid when the same becomes due and
payable, or in the event the Obligor fails to perform any other covenant or
obligation under the Loan, the Servicer in accordance with the Credit and
Collection Policy shall take such action as shall maximize the amount of
recovery thereon and it shall deem to be in the best interests of the
Noteholders and the Hedge Counterparties. The Servicer, consistent with its
Credit and Collection Policy, may accelerate all payments due thereunder to the
extent permitted by the Required Loan Documents and foreclose upon at a public
or private sale or otherwise comparably effect the ownership of Collateral
relating to defaulted Loans for which the related Loan is still outstanding and
as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of
delinquent payments in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.10 and shall
act as sales and processing agent for the Collateral that is repossessed. In
connection with such foreclosure or other conversion and any other liquidation
action or enforcement of remedies, the Servicer shall exercise collection and
foreclosure procedures with the same degree of care and skill in its exercise or
use as it would exercise with respect to its own affairs, in accordance with
prudent servicing standards, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection
Policy. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer may not
sell any such Collateral without first using commercially reasonable efforts to
obtain bids to purchase such Collateral from at least three (3) Persons (other
than the Servicer or any of its Affiliates). The Servicer may sell the
Collateral to the highest bidder (if any bids are received) or the Servicer or
an Affiliate may purchase the Collateral for a price equal to the highest bid,
but in no event may the Servicer sell any Collateral for less than the then fair
market value of the Collateral. If no bids are received and the Servicer has
used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such bids, the Servicer or an
Affiliate may purchase the Collateral for a price equal to the then fair market
value of such Collateral. Any such sale of the Collateral is to be evidenced by
a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Servicer delivered to the
Indenture Trustee setting forth the Loan, the Collateral, the sale price of the
Collateral and certifying that such sale price is the fair market value of such
Collateral. In any case in which any such Collateral has suffered damage, the
Servicer will not expend funds in connection with any repair or toward the
repossession of such Collateral unless it reasonably determines that such repair
and/or repossession will increase the Liquidation Proceeds by an amount greater
than the amount of such expenses.

         (b)      Prior to undertaking foreclosure of any Loan secured by real
property and any improvements thereon including any Mortgaged Property of a
Material Mortgage Loan, the Servicer must investigate environmental conditions,
including, in accordance with the Credit and

                                       67
<PAGE>

Collection Policy, the performance of a Phase I and/or Phase II environmental
site assessment, to ascertain the actual or potential presence of any hazardous
material on or under such property. For purposes of this Agreement, the term
hazardous material includes (1) any hazardous substance, as defined by the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as
amended by the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986, 42 U.S.C.
9601-9675, and (2) petroleum (as that term is defined at 42 U.S.C. Section 6991)
including any derivative, fraction, by-product, constituent or breakdown product
thereof, or additive thereto. In the event that the environmental investigation
determines the existence of any hazardous material on or under the real property
in excess of minimum action levels established by relevant regulatory agencies,
title to such property shall not be taken without satisfaction of the Rating
Agency Condition.

         (c)      After a Loan has been liquidated, the Servicer shall promptly
prepare and forward to the Indenture Trustee and upon request, any
Securityholder or Hedge Counterparty, a report (the "Liquidation Report"), in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit D, detailing the Liquidation Proceeds
received from such Loan, the Liquidation Expenses incurred with respect thereto,
and any loss incurred in connection therewith.

         SECTION 5.04 FIDELITY BOND.

         The Servicer shall at all times maintain with a responsible company,
and at its own expense, a blanket fidelity bond (the "Fidelity Bond") in a
minimum aggregate amount equal to $2,000,000, and a maximum deductible of
$50,000, with coverage on all employees acting in any capacity requiring such
persons to handle funds, money, documents or papers relating to the Loans or the
Collateral ("Servicer Employees"). The Fidelity Bond shall provide coverage to
the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Hedge Counterparties and the
Securityholders, their respective officers and employees, against losses
resulting from forgery, theft, embezzlement or fraud by such Servicer Employees.
The Fidelity Bond shall not relieve the Servicer from its duties or indemnity
obligations as set forth in this Sale and Servicing Agreement. Upon the request
of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, any Securityholder or any Hedge
Counterparty, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee,
the Owner Trustee, such Securityholder or such Hedge Counterparty a certified
true copy of such Fidelity Bond.

         SECTION 5.05 MAINTENANCE OF HAZARD INSURANCE.

         (a)      The Servicer will use its reasonable best efforts to ensure
that each Obligor maintains an Insurance Policy with respect to any tangible,
personal property Collateral (other than accounts receivable) in an amount at
least equal to the sum of the Outstanding Loan Balance of the related Eligible
Loan and shall ensure that each such Insurance Policy names the Servicer as loss
payee and as an insured thereunder and all of the Originator's right, title and
interest therein is fully assigned to the Indenture Trustee. Additionally, the
Servicer will require that each Obligor maintain property damage liability
insurance during the term of each Loan in amounts and against risks customarily
insured against by the Obligor on property owned by it. If an Obligor fails to
maintain property damage insurance, the Servicer may in its discretion purchase
and maintain such insurance on behalf of, and at the expense of, the Obligor. In
connection with its activities as Servicer, the Servicer agrees to present, on
behalf of the

                                       68
<PAGE>

Indenture Trustee, the Securityholders and the Hedge Counterparties, claims to
the insurer under each Insurance Policy and any such liability policy, and to
settle, adjust and compromise such claims, in each case, consistent with the
terms of each Loan. The Servicer's Insurance Policies with respect to the
Collateral will insure against liability for physical damage relating to such
Collateral in accordance with the requirements of the Credit and Collection
Policy. The Servicer hereby disclaims any and all right, title and interest in
and to any Insurance Policy and Insurance Proceeds with respect to any
Collateral, including any Insurance Policy with respect to which it is named as
loss payee and as an insured, and agrees that it has no equitable, beneficial or
other interest in the Insurance Polices and Insurance Proceeds other than being
named as loss payee and as an insured. The Servicer acknowledges that with
respect to the Insurance Policies and Insurance Proceeds thereof that it is
acting solely in the capacity as agent for the Indenture Trustee.

         (b)      Notwithstanding Section 5.05(a), in the case of each Material
Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall comply with the Credit and Collection Policy
concerning the issuance and maintenance of fire and hazard insurance with
extended coverage customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located.
If at origination of a Loan, to the best of the Servicer's knowledge after
reasonable investigation, the related Mortgaged Property is in an area
identified in the Federal Register by the Flood Emergency Management Agency as
having special flood hazards (and such flood insurance has been made available)
consistent with the Credit and Collection Policy, the Servicer will require the
related Obligor or other creditors to purchase a flood insurance policy covering
each piece of property that is material with a generally acceptable insurance
carrier, in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of (i) the
full insurable value of the Mortgaged Property that is material, or (ii) the
maximum amount of insurance available under the National Flood Insurance Act of
1968, as amended. The Servicer shall also maintain, to the extent such insurance
is available, and required by the Credit and Collection Policy, on Foreclosed
Property constituting real property that is material, fire and hazard insurance
in the amounts described above and liability insurance.

         (c)      Any amounts collected by the Servicer under any such Insurance
Policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the
Collateral, or to be released to the Obligor or other creditors in accordance
with Requirements of Law or the governing documents) shall be deposited in the
Principal and Interest Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section
7.03(h). It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional
insurance need be required by the Servicer of any Obligor or other creditors or
maintained on Foreclosed Property, other than pursuant to such Requirements of
Law and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such
additional insurance. All policies required hereunder (unless the Seller is a
non-agent co-lender with respect to such Loan) shall be endorsed with standard
mortgagee clauses with losses payable to the Servicer or its affiliates.

         SECTION 5.06 COLLECTION OF CERTAIN LOAN PAYMENTS.

         (a)      The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts, consistent with
the Credit and Collection Policy, to collect all payments required under the
terms and provisions of the Loans. Consistent with the foregoing and the Credit
and Collection Policy, the Servicer may in its discretion waive or permit to be
waived any fee or charge which the Servicer would be entitled

                                       69
<PAGE>

to retain hereunder as servicing compensation and extend the due date for
payments due on an Underlying Note as provided in Section 5.02(e).

         (b)      The Servicer agrees not to make, or permit to be made, any
change, in the direction of, or instructions with respect to, any payments to be
made by an Obligor Lock-Box Bank from any Obligor Lock-Box or any Obligor
Lock-Box Account in any manner that would diminish, impair, delay or otherwise
adversely effect the timing or receipt of such payments by the Lock-Box Bank
without the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee and with the consent
of the Majority Noteholders and the Hedge Counterparties. The Servicer further
agrees to provide the Indenture Trustee promptly, but in no case later than one
(1) Business Day after the Servicer's receipt, any notice it receives that an
Obligor is changing the direction of or instructions with respect to any
payments from any Obligor Lock-Box or any Obligor Lock-Box Account.

         SECTION 5.07 ACCESS TO CERTAIN DOCUMENTATION AND INFORMATION REGARDING
                      THE LOANS.

         The Servicer shall provide to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee,
the FDIC, the OCC, the Federal Reserve, the Office of Thrift Supervision and the
supervisory agents and examiners of the foregoing, access to the documentation
regarding the Loans required by applicable local, state and federal regulations,
such access being afforded without charge but only upon reasonable request and
during normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer designated by it and
in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the Servicer's normal
operations or customer or employee relations. The Indenture Trustee and the
Owner Trustee shall and shall cause their representatives to hold in confidence
all such information except to the extent disclosure may be required by law (and
all reasonable applications for confidential treatment are unavailing) and
except to the extent that the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee may
reasonably determine that such disclosure is consistent with their obligations
hereunder.

         SECTION 5.08 SATISFACTION OF MORTGAGES AND COLLATERAL AND RELEASE OF
                      LOAN FILES.

         (a)      Upon the payment in full of any Loan, the receipt by the
Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner
customary for such purposes or the deposit into the Principal and Interest
Account of the purchase price of any Loan acquired by the Trust Depositor, the
Servicer or another Person pursuant to this Agreement, or any other Transaction
Document, the Servicer will immediately notify the Indenture Trustee by a
certification in the form of Exhibit M attached hereto (which certification
shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be
received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in
the Principal and Interest Account pursuant to Section 7.03(b) have been or will
be so deposited) of a Servicing Officer and shall request delivery to it of the
Loan File. Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Indenture Trustee
shall in accordance with Section 2.08(c) release, within two (2) Business Days
(if such request was received by 2:00 p.m. central time), the related Loan File
to the Servicer. Expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of
satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be payable by the Servicer and shall
not be chargeable to the Principal and Interest Account or the Note Distribution
Account.

                                       70
<PAGE>

         (b)      From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or
foreclosure of any Loan, the Indenture Trustee shall, upon request of the
Servicer and delivery to the Indenture Trustee of a certification in the form of
Exhibit M attached hereto signed by a Servicing Officer, release the related
Loan File to the Servicer within two (2) Business Days (if such request was
received by 2:00 p.m. central time), and the Indenture Trustee shall execute
such documents as shall be necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings.
The Servicer shall return the Loan File to the Indenture Trustee when the need
therefor by the Servicer no longer exists, unless the Loan has been liquidated
and the Net Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Loan have been deposited in the
Principal and Interest Account and remitted to the Indenture Trustee for deposit
in the Note Distribution Account or the Loan File or such document has been
delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other public official as
required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal action or other
proceedings for the foreclosure or repossession of Collateral either judicially
or non-judicially, and the Servicer has delivered to the Indenture Trustee a
certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of the
Person to whom such Loan File or such document was delivered and the purpose or
purposes of such delivery. Upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer
stating that such Loan was liquidated, the servicing receipt relating to such
Loan shall be released by the Indenture Trustee to the Servicer.

         (c)      The Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver to the
Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee's sale or other documents
provided to it necessary to the foreclosure or trustee's sale in respect of
Collateral or to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Obligor
on the Underlying Note or other agreement securing Collateral or to obtain a
deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the
Underlying Note or other agreement securing Collateral or otherwise available at
law or in equity. Together with such documents or pleadings, the Servicer shall
deliver to the Indenture Trustee a certificate of a Servicing Officer requesting
that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Indenture Trustee and
certifying as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required and that
the execution and delivery thereof by the Indenture Trustee will not invalidate
or otherwise adversely affect the Lien of the agreement securing Collateral,
except for the termination of such a Lien upon completion of the foreclosure or
trustee's sale. The Indenture Trustee shall, upon receipt of a written request
from a Servicing Officer, execute any document provided to the Indenture Trustee
by the Servicer or take any other action requested in such request, that is, in
the opinion of the Servicer as evidenced by such request, required or
appropriate by any state or other jurisdiction to discharge the Lien securing
Collateral upon the satisfaction thereof and the Indenture Trustee will sign and
post, but will not guarantee receipt of, any such documents to the Servicer, or
such other party as the Servicer may direct, within five (5) Business Days of
the Indenture Trustee's receipt of such certificate or documents. Such
certificate or documents shall establish to the Indenture Trustee's satisfaction
that the related Loan has been paid in full by or on behalf of the Obligor (or
subject to a deficiency claim against such Obligor) and that such payment has
been deposited in the Principal and Interest Account.

         (d)      Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 5.08 to the
contrary, in no event may the Servicer possess in excess of fifteen (15) Loan
Files (excluding Loan Files for Loans which have been paid in full or
repurchased) at any given time.

         SECTION 5.09 SCHEDULED PAYMENT ADVANCES.

                                       71
<PAGE>

         For each Due Period, if the Servicer determines that any Scheduled
Payment (or portion thereof) that was due and payable pursuant to a Loan in the
Loan Pool during such Due Period was not received prior to the end of such Due
Period or has been received in an Obligor Lock-Box Account but has not yet been
transferred to the Lock-Box Account, the Servicer has the right to elect, but is
not obligated, to make a Scheduled Payment Advance in an amount up to the amount
of such delinquent Scheduled Payment (or portion thereof) if the Servicer
believes in good faith that the advance will be reimbursed or subsequently paid
by the related Obligor. The Servicer will deposit any Scheduled Payment Advances
into the Principal and Interest Account on or prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City
time) on the related Determination Date, in immediately available funds. The
Servicer will be entitled to be reimbursed for Scheduled Payment Advances
pursuant to Section 7.05(a) and Section 7.05(b).

         SECTION 5.10 TITLE, MANAGEMENT AND DISPOSITION OF FORECLOSED PROPERTY.

         (a)      In the event that title to Collateral is acquired in
foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure or by other legal process, the
deed or certificate of sale, or the Repossessed Collateral, shall be taken in
the name of the Issuer for the benefit of the Securityholders and the Hedge
Counterparties.

         (b)      The Servicer, subject to the provisions of this ARTICLE 5,
shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each Foreclosed Property or other
Repossessed Collateral for the Securityholders and the Hedge Counterparties
solely for the purpose of its prudent and prompt disposition and sale. The
Servicer shall, either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer,
manage, conserve, protect and operate the Foreclosed Property or other
Repossessed Collateral in the same manner that it manages, conserves, protects
and operates other foreclosed or repossessed property for its own account, and
in a similar manner to that of similar property in the same locality as the
Foreclosed Property or other Repossessed Collateral is managed. The Servicer
shall attempt to sell the same (and may temporarily rent the same) on such terms
and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the
Securityholders and the Hedge Counterparties.

         (c)      The Servicer shall cause to be deposited in the Principal and
Interest Account, no later than two (2) Business Days after the receipt thereof,
all revenues received with respect to the conservation and disposition of the
related Foreclosed Property or other Repossessed Collateral net of Servicing
Advances.

         (d)      The Servicer shall, subject to Section 5.02(p) and Section
7.03, reimburse itself for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and
unpaid Servicing Fees, and the Servicer shall deposit in the Principal and
Interest Account the net cash proceeds of the sale of any Foreclosed Property or
other Repossessed Collateral to be distributed to the Securityholders and the
Hedge Counterparties in accordance with Section 7.05 hereof.

         SECTION 5.11 SERVICING COMPENSATION.

         (a)      As compensation for its servicing activities hereunder and
reimbursement for its expenses, the Servicer shall be entitled to receive a
servicing fee for each month (or portion thereof), calculated and payable
monthly in arrears on each Remittance Date prior to the

                                       72
<PAGE>

termination of the Issuer (with respect to each Due Period, the "Servicing Fee")
equal to the sum of the product of: (i) the applicable Servicing Fee Percentage,
(ii) the Outstanding Loan Balance of the Asset Based Revolvers and the
Outstanding Loan Balance of all other Loans, as applicable, as of the first
(1st) day of the applicable Due Period (or, with respect to the first (1st) Due
Period, as of the Closing Date) and (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is
equal to the number of days in the applicable Due Period (or, with respect to
the first (1st) Due Period, the number of days from the Closing Date to the end
of the first (1st) Due Period) and the denominator of which is 360. The
Servicing Fee is payable out of Interest Collections pursuant to Section 7.05(a)
and Section 7.05(b). If the Servicer is replaced, the Originator shall be
responsible for the payment of any fee payable to a Successor Servicer in excess
of the Servicer Fee to the extent such fee is not paid pursuant to Section
7.05(a) and Section 7.05(b).

         (b)      In addition to the Servicing Fee, the Servicer shall be
entitled to retain for itself as additional servicing compensation assumption
and other administrative fees paid or payable in connection with any Loan.

         SECTION 5.12 ASSIGNMENT; RESIGNATION.

         The Servicer shall not assign its rights and duties under this
Agreement (other than in connection with a subservicing arrangement) nor resign

determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by a
written Opinion of Counsel (who may be counsel for the Servicer) to such effect
delivered to the Indenture Trustee, which Opinion of Counsel shall be in form
and substance reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee. No such
resignation shall become effective until a successor has assumed the Servicer's
responsibilities and obligations hereunder in accordance with Section 8.03.

established commercial loan servicing institution that on a consolidated basis
has a net worth of at least $50,000,000, shall be the Successor Servicer
hereunder without execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the

contrary; provided, however, no such merger, conversion or consolidation of the
Servicer or transfer of all or substantially all or the Servicer assets or
business shall be permitted hereunder unless the Rating Agency Condition is

         5.15(b)(ii), the Backup Servicer shall have no duty to confirm that the

                  (iv)     If the Servicer disagrees with the report provided
         under paragraph (iii) above by the Backup Servicer or if the Servicer
         or any subservicer has not reconciled such discrepancy, the Backup
         Servicer agrees to confer with the Servicer to resolve such
         disagreement on or prior to the next succeeding Determination Date and
         shall settle such discrepancy with the Servicer if possible, and notify
         the Indenture Trustee, each Hedge Counterparty, the Placement Agent and
         the Rating Agencies of the resolution thereof. The Servicer hereby
         agrees to cooperate at its own expense with the Backup Servicer in
         reconciling any discrepancies herein. If within twenty (20) days after
         the delivery of the report provided under paragraph (iii) above by the
         Backup Servicer, such discrepancy is not resolved, the Backup Servicer
         shall promptly notify the Servicer, Indenture Trustee, each Hedge
         Counterparty, the Placement Agent and the Rating Agencies of the
         continued existence of such discrepancy. Following receipt of such
         notice by the Indenture Trustee, each Hedge Counterparty, the Placement
         Agent and the Rating Agencies, the Servicer shall deliver to the
         Indenture Trustee, each Hedge Counterparty, the Placement Agent, the
         Backup Servicer and the Rating Agencies no later than the related
         Remittance Date a certificate describing the nature and amount of such
         discrepancies and the actions the Servicer proposes to take with
         respect thereto.

         With respect to the foregoing, the Backup Servicer, in the performance
of its duties and obligations hereunder, is entitled to rely conclusively, and
shall be fully protected in so relying, on the contents of each Tape, including,
but not limited to, the completeness and accuracy thereof, provided by the
Servicer.

         (c)      After the termination or resignation by the Servicer in
accordance with this Agreement, all authority, power, rights and
responsibilities of the Servicer, under this Agreement, whether with respect to
the Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Successor Servicer or
the Backup Servicer, as applicable in accordance with Section 8.03 and such
applicable party shall be deemed the Successor Servicer, subject to and in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.03, as long as such named Successor
Servicer is not prohibited by any Requirements of Law from fulfilling the same,
as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel; provided, however, if Wells Fargo as
Backup Servicer becomes the Successor Servicer, it will not make any Scheduled
Payment Advances.

the parties to this Agreement.

the Backup Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Backup Servicing Fee from
the Servicer. The Backup Servicing Fee shall be calculated and payable monthly

Successor Servicer, (ii) its removal as Backup Servicer, or (iii) the
termination of this Agreement.

         (f)      The Backup Servicer may be removed with or without cause by

obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, it being expressly
understood by all parties hereto that there are no implied duties or obligations
of the Backup Servicer hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Backup Servicer, except as expressly set forth herein, shall have
no obligation to supervise, verify, monitor or administer the performance of the

custodians in performing any of its duties and obligations under this Agreement,
it being understood by the parties hereto that the Backup Servicer will be
responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of such agents,
attorneys or custodians acting for and on behalf of the Backup Servicer. Neither
the Backup Servicer nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents
shall be liable, directly or indirectly, for any damages or expenses arising out
of the services performed under this Agreement other than damages or expenses
that result from the negligence or willful misconduct of it or them or the
failure to perform materially in accordance with this Agreement.

document delivered to the Backup Servicer hereunder or on which the Backup
Servicer must rely in order to perform its obligations hereunder, and the
parties hereto each agree to look only to the Servicer to perform such
obligations. The Backup Servicer shall have no responsibility and shall not be
in default hereunder or incur any liability for any failure, error, malfunction
or any delay in carrying out any of its respective duties under this Agreement
if such failure or delay results from the Backup Servicer acting in accordance
with information prepared or supplied by a Person other than the Backup Servicer
or the failure of any such other Person to prepare or provide such information.

shall incur no liability for (i) any act or failure to act of any third party,
including the Servicer (other than any agent, attorney or custodian acting on

the invalidity or unenforceability of any Loan under Requirements of Law, (iv)
the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made with respect to
any Loan, or (v) the acts or omissions of any Successor Backup Servicer.

defend the right, title and interest of the Issuer in, to and under the Loans in
the Loan Pool and its interest in any related Collateral, against all claims of

other Persons in securitization or other non-recourse financing transactions
involving the Originator or any of its Affiliates on terms and conditions (with
respect to liabilities and restrictions on its activities, as well as
restrictions on its interactions with the Originator or its Affiliates, relevant
to the "bankruptcy remoteness" or "substantive consolidation" analysis relating

         SECTION 6.20 PAYMENTS FROM OBLIGOR LOCK-BOXES AND OBLIGOR LOCK-BOX
                      ACCOUNTS.

         The Trust Depositor agrees not to make, or permit to be made, any
change in the direction of, or instructions with respect to, any payments to be
made by an Obligor Lock-Box Bank from any Obligor Lock-Box or any Obligor
Lock-Box Account in any manner that would diminish, impair, delay or otherwise
adversely effect the timing or receipt of such payments by the Lock-Box Bank or
to change the name in which an Obligor Lock-Box or Obligor Lock-Box Account is
maintained without the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee and with
the consent of the Majority Noteholders and the Hedge Counterparties. The Trust
Depositor further agrees to provide the Indenture Trustee promptly, but in no
case later than one (1) Business Day after the Trust Depositor's receipt, any
notice it receives that an Obligor is changing the direction of or instructions
with respect to any payments from any Obligor Lock-Box or any Obligor Lock-Box
Account or the name in which any Obligor Lock-Box or Obligor Lock-Box Account is
maintained.

                                   ARTICLE 7.

                           ESTABLISHMENT OF ACCOUNTS;
                           DISTRIBUTIONS; RESERVE FUND

         SECTION 7.01 NOTE DISTRIBUTION ACCOUNT, RESERVE FUND AND LOCK-BOXES.

         (a)      On or before the Closing Date, the Servicer shall establish
the Note Distribution Account and the Reserve Fund with and in the name of the
Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Securityholders and the Hedge
Counterparties. The Servicer and Indenture Trustee are hereby required to ensure
that each of the Note Distribution Account and Reserve Fund is established and
maintained as an Eligible Deposit Account with a Qualified Institution. If any
institution with which any of the accounts established pursuant to this Section
7.01(a) are established ceases to be a Qualified Institution, the Servicer, or
if the Servicer fails to do so, the Indenture Trustee (as the case may be) shall
within ten (10) Business Days establish a replacement account at a Qualified
Institution after notice of such event. In no event shall the Indenture Trustee
be responsible for monitoring whether such Eligible Institution shall remain a
Qualified Institution. Each Qualified Institution maintaining an Eligible
Deposit Account shall agree in writing to comply with all instructions
originated by the Indenture Trustee or, with respect to the Principal and
Interest Account only, the Servicer directing disposition of the funds in the
Eligible Deposit Account without the further consent of the Trust Depositor.

         (b)      If the Servicer so directs (or, if the Servicer does not so
direct, the Trust Depositor has the right to direct), in writing, the Indenture
Trustee shall accept such directions as directions of the Issuer and shall
invest the amounts in the Note Distribution Account and the Reserve Fund in
Permitted Investments of the type specified in such written direction that
mature or are withdrawable not later than the next succeeding Determination
Date, except for investments in subsection (vi) of the definition of Permitted
Investments. Once such funds are invested, the Indenture Trustee shall not
change the investment of such funds other than in connection with the withdrawal
or liquidation of such investments and the transfer of such funds as provided
herein on or prior to the next succeeding Determination Date. Funds in the Note
Distribution

                                       82
<PAGE>

Account and Reserve Fund not so invested must be insured to the extent and the
amount permitted by law by BIF or SAIF of the FDIC. Subject to the restrictions
herein, the Servicer or Indenture Trustee may purchase a Permitted Investment
from itself or an Affiliate with respect to investment of funds in the Trust
Accounts. Subject to the other provisions hereof, the Servicer in the case of
the Principal and Interest Account and the Indenture Trustee in the case of all
other Trust Accounts shall have sole control over each such investment and the
income thereon, and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such
investment, if any, shall be delivered directly to the Servicer or its agent or
the Indenture Trustee or its agent, as applicable, together with each document
of transfer, if any, necessary to transfer title to such investment to the
Servicer or Indenture Trustee, as applicable, in a manner which complies with
this Section 7.01. All Investment Earnings on investments of funds in the Trust
Accounts shall be deposited in the Interest Collection Account pursuant to
Section 7.01 and distributed on the next Remittance Date pursuant to Section
7.05. The Trust Depositor and the Issuer agree and acknowledge that the Servicer
and Indenture Trustee are to have "control" (within the meaning of the UCC) of
collateral comprised of "Investment Property" (within the meaning of the UCC)
for all purposes of this Agreement. In the absence of timely written direction
from the Servicer or the Trust Depositor, the Indenture Trustee shall invest
amounts in the Note Distribution Account and Reserve Fund Account in Permitted
Investments of the type specified in clause (vi) of the definition of Permitted
Investments herein.

         (c)      The Servicer and the Originator have established, or caused to
be established, and will maintain, or caused to be maintained, various Obligor
Lock-Boxes and Obligor Lock-Box Accounts, for the deposit of the amounts
representing payments sent by Obligors with respect to certain Revolving Loans.
The Servicer and the Originator have established, or caused to be established,
and will maintain, or caused to be maintained, the Lock-Box and the Lock-Box
Account, for the deposit of the amounts representing payments sent by Obligors
and Obligor Lock-Box Banks, as applicable, with respect to Loans pledged to the
Indenture Trustee as well as with respect to loans not pledged to the Indenture
Trustee. The Servicer, as agent for the Issuer, and the Originator will cause
each Obligor Lock-Box Bank to deposit within two (2) Business Days of receipt
all Collections that have been sent to such Obligor Lock-Box Bank into the Lock
Box Account, and within two (2) Business Days of the deposit into the Lock-Box
or the Lock Box Account, the Servicer and the Originator will cause the Lock-Box
Bank to cause the amounts in the Lock Box Account to be deposited into the
Principal and Interest Account.

         SECTION 7.02 RESERVE FUND DEPOSIT.

         On the Closing Date, the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, shall
deposit the Reserve Fund Initial Balance into the Reserve Fund from the net
proceeds of the sale of the Securities.

         SECTION 7.03 PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST ACCOUNT.

         (a)      The Servicer shall cause to be established and maintained one
or more Principal and Interest Accounts (including for each such account two (2)
subaccounts, one designated as the Interest Collection Account and the other
designated as the Principal Collection Account), in one or more Eligible Deposit
Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts, which may be
interest-bearing or such accounts may be trust accounts wherein the moneys
therein are

                                       83

invested in Permitted Investments, titled "CapitalSource Finance LLC, as
Servicer, in trust for the Hedge Counterparties and the registered holders of
CapitalSource Commercial Loan Trust Notes, Series 2003-1 Class A, Class B, Class
C, Class D and Class E Notes." All funds in such Principal and Interest Accounts
not so invested shall be insured to the extent and the amount permitted by the
BIF or SAIF of the FDIC to the maximum extent provided by law. The creation of
any Principal and Interest Account shall be evidenced by a letter agreement in
the form of Exhibit E hereto. A copy of such letter agreement shall be furnished
to the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and, upon request, any
Securityholder or Hedge Counterparty. The Servicer may, upon written notice to
the Indenture Trustee, transfer any Principal and Interest Account to a
different Eligible Deposit Account.

         (b)      The Servicer and each Subservicer shall deposit without
duplication (within two (2) Business Days of receipt thereof) in the applicable
Principal and Interest Account and retain therein the following amounts received
by the Servicer (and shall segregate and deposit Interest Collections into the
Interest Collections Account and Principal Collections into the Principal
Collection Account):

                  (i)      all Principal Collections accruing and received on or
         after the applicable Cut-Off Date;

                  (ii)     all Interest Collections accruing and received on or
         after the first day of the month of the Closing Date (net of the
         Servicing Fee with respect to each Loan and other servicing
         compensation payable to the Servicer as permitted herein) and all
         origination and commitment fees;

                  (iii)    all Net Liquidation Proceeds (other than Insurance
         Proceeds covered under clause (iv) below);

                  (iv)     all Insurance Proceeds (other than amounts to be
         applied to restoration or repair of any related Collateral or amounts
         in excess of the Outstanding Loan Balance of the related Loan to be
         released to the Obligor in accordance with the Credit and Collection
         Policy);

                  (v)      all Released Mortgaged Property Proceeds and any
         other proceeds from any other Collateral securing the Loans (other than
         amounts released to the Obligor in accordance with the Credit and
         Collection Policy);

                  (vi)     any amounts paid in connection with the purchase or
         repurchase of any Loan;

                  (vii)    any amount required to be deposited in the Principal
         and Interest Account pursuant to Section 5.10 or Section 7.03; and

                  (viii)   the amount of any gains and interest incurred in
         connection with investments in Permitted Investments.

         (c)      The Servicer shall have no obligation to deposit into the
Principal and Interest Account any Retained Interest or Released Amounts.

                                       84
<PAGE>

         (d)      Not later than the close of business on each Determination
Date immediately preceding a Remittance Date, the Servicer will remit to the
Principal and Interest Account any Scheduled Payment Advance that the Servicer
determines to make.

         (e)      Notwithstanding Section 7.03(b), if (i) the Servicer makes a
deposit into the Principal and Interest Account in respect of a Collection of a
Loan in the Loan Pool and such Collection was received by the Servicer in the
form of a check that is not honored for any reason, or (ii) the Servicer makes a
mistake with respect to the amount of any Collection and deposits an amount that
is less than or more than the actual amount of such Collection, the Servicer
shall appropriately adjust the amount subsequently deposited into the Principal
and Interest Account to reflect such dishonored check or mistake. Any Scheduled
Payment in respect of which a dishonored check is received shall be deemed not
to have been paid.

         (f)      The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Principal and
Interest Accounts shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that,
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments with respect to the
Servicing Fee, together with the Liquidation Expenses, may not be deposited by
the Servicer in the Principal and Interest Account.

         (g)      So long as no Servicer Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, and consistent with any requirements of the Code, the Principal and
Interest Accounts shall either be maintained with an Eligible Deposit Account as
an interest-bearing account meeting the requirements set forth in Section
7.03(a), or the funds held therein may be invested by the Servicer (to the
extent practicable) in Permitted Investments, as directed in writing by the
Servicer, and, in each case, with a stated maturity (giving effect to any
applicable grace period) no later than the fourth (4th) Business Day immediately
preceding the Remittance Date next following the Due Period in which the date of
investment occurs; provided, however, that Permitted Investments shall not
include any interest-only security, any security purchased at a price in excess
of 100% of par or any security whose repayment is subject to substantial
non-credit related risk as determined by the Servicer. All Permitted Investments
must be held by or registered in the name of "CapitalSource, as Servicer, in
trust for the Hedge Counterparties and the registered holders of CapitalSource
Commercial Loan Trust Notes, Series 2003-1." Any Investment Interest Earnings on
funds held in the Principal and Interest Account shall be deemed part of the
Interest Collection Account and shall be deposited therein pursuant to Section
7.03 and distributed on the next Remittance Date pursuant to Section 7.05. The
amount of any losses incurred in connection with the investment of funds in the
Principal and Interest Account in Permitted Investments shall be deposited in
the Principal and Interest Account by the Servicer from its own funds
immediately as realized without reimbursement therefor.

         (h)      The Servicer may (and, for the purposes of clause (ii) below,
shall), at any time upon one (1) Business Day's notice to the Indenture Trustee,
make withdrawals from the Principal and Interest Account for the following
purposes:

                  (i)      to remit to the Trust Depositor, in connection with
         the transfer of a Substitute Loan to the Issuer in place of a Prepaid
         Loan, an amount equal to the Prepaid Loan Amount;

                  (ii)     to remit to the Indenture Trustee on each
         Determination Date immediately preceding a Remittance Date, for deposit
         in the Note Distribution Account, the Interest Collections and
         Principal Collections received during the immediately preceding Due
         Period less any amounts remitted to the Trust Depositor pursuant to
         clause (i) above prior to such Determination Date;

                  (iii)    prior to a Servicer Default, and subject to Section
         5.02(p), to reimburse itself for any unreimbursed Servicing Advances to
         the extent deposited in the Principal and Interest Account (and not
         netted from Scheduled Payments received from the related Loans);

                  (iv)     to withdraw any amount received from an Obligor that
         is recoverable and sought to be recovered as a voidable preference by a
         trustee in bankruptcy pursuant to the United States Bankruptcy Code in
         accordance with a final, nonappealable order of a court having
         competent jurisdiction;

                  (v)      to make investments in Permitted Investments;

                  (vi)     to withdraw any funds deposited in the Principal and
         Interest Account that were not required or permitted to be deposited
         therein or were deposited therein in error;

                  (vii)    prior to a Servicer Default, to pay itself certain
         additional servicing compensation as permitted under Section 5.11(b) of
         the Agreement;

                  (viii)   prior to (A) a payment default on the related Loan
         (and in the case of Asset Based Revolvers, a payment default shall mean
         any failure to make a payment on the date such payment is due and such
         failure continues for more than one (1) calendar day), (B) a Servicer
         Default, (C) an Event of Default, or (D) an Accelerated Amortization
         Event, with respect to Revolving Loans secured by Collateral only, to
         advance to an Obligor in a given Due Period prior to the Monthly
         Reconciliation Date an amount not to exceed the Principal Collections
         received from such Obligor during that Due Period; and

                  (ix)     to clear and terminate the Principal and Interest
         Account upon the termination of the Agreement

         SECTION 7.04 SECURITYHOLDER DISTRIBUTIONS.

         (a)      Each Securityholder as of the related Record Date shall be
paid on the next succeeding Remittance Date by check mailed to such
Securityholder at the address for such Securityholder appearing on the Note
Register or Certificate Register or by wire transfer if such Securityholder

         SECTION 7.06 DETERMINATION OF LIBOR.

         (a)      The Indenture Trustee will determine the interest rate for
each Interest Accrual Period by determining the London interbank offered rate
("LIBOR") for deposits in U.S. Dollars for a period of one (1) month (the
"One-Month Index Maturity") which appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00
a.m., London time, on the day that is two (2) London Banking Days preceding that
Interest Accrual Period ("LIBOR Determination Date"). If such rate does not
appear on Telerate Page 3750 on the related LIBOR Determination Date, the rate
for that Interest Accrual Period will be determined as if the parties had
specified "USD-LIBOR-Reference Banks" as the applicable rate.
"USD-LIBOR-Reference Banks" means that the interest rate for an Interest Accrual
Period will be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in U.S.
Dollars are offered by the Reference Banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London
time, on the related LIBOR Determination Date to prime banks in the London
interbank market for the One-Month Index Maturity commencing on the beginning of
that Interest Accrual Period and in a Representative Amount. The Indenture
Trustee will request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks
to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two (2) such quotations are
provided, the rate for that Interest Accrual Period will be the arithmetic mean
of the quotations. If fewer than two (2) quotations are provided as requested,
the rate for that Interest Accrual Period will be the arithmetic mean of the
rates quoted by major banks in New York City, selected by the Indenture Trustee,
at 11:00 a.m. New York City time, on the beginning of that Interest Accrual
Period for loans in U.S. Dollars to leading European banks for the One-Month
Index Maturity commencing at the beginning of that Interest Accrual Period and
in a Representative Amount.

         (b)      The establishment of LIBOR on the applicable London Banking
Day by the Indenture Trustee and the Indenture Trustee's subsequent calculation
of the rates of interest applicable to the Notes for the related Remittance Date
shall, in the absence of manifest error, be final and binding. Each such rate of

         SECTION 7.07 MONTHLY RECONCILIATION.

         (a)      Except as set forth in Section 7.07(b), on each Business Day
during each Due Period that Principal Collections are received in the Principal
Collection Account with respect to any Loan in the Loan Pool, the Servicer will
determine the Outstanding Loan Balance and the principal amount of the portion
of such Loan not owed by the Issuer (if any) with respect to such Loan.

         (b)      Prior to (i) a payment default on the related Loan (and in the
case of Asset Based Revolvers, a payment default shall mean any failure to make
a payment on the date such payment is due and such failure continues for more
than one (1) calendar day), (ii) a Servicer

Default, (iii) an Event of Default or (iv) an Accelerated Amortization Event, on
each Monthly Reconciliation Date, the Servicer will determine the Outstanding
Loan Balance and principal amount of the portion of such Loan not owned by the
Issuer (if any) with respect to each Revolving Loan secured by Collateral (but
specifically excluding any Revolving Loan that is not secured by any Collateral)
in the Loan Pool, and on and as of such date will determine the net effect of
the Principal Collections received from, and payments from the Principal
Collection Account representing new advances made to, the related Obligor during
such Due Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer will maintain the
underlying data of all Principal Collections received and payments or advances
made with respect to any Revolving Loan secured by Collateral from the Principal
Collection Account on each day during each Due Period, and shall make such
underlying data available pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of
Section 9.03.

Servicer in accordance with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents;
or

         (b)      failure by the Servicer duly to observe or perform, in any

Transaction Documents or in any certificate or other writing delivered thereto
or in connection therewith proves to have been incorrect when made, which

Trustee by any Securityholder or Hedge Counterparty, and (ii) the date on which
a Responsible Officer of the Servicer receives actual knowledge of such failure
or breach; or

         (g)      failure by the Servicer to observe or perform the Credit and
Collection Policy regarding the servicing of the Loans in any manner that would
have a material adverse effect on the Loans.

         SECTION 8.02 SERVICER TRANSFER.

         (a)      If a Servicer Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Majority Noteholders may, by written notice (a "Termination Notice") delivered
to the parties hereto and each of the Hedge Counterparties, terminate all (but
not less than all) of the Servicer's management, administrative, servicing,
custodial and collection functions; provided, however, no Termination Notice
shall be required with respect to any Servicer Default described under Section
8.01(c), Section 8.01(d) and Section 8.01(e).

         (b)      Upon delivery of the notice required by Section 8.02(a) (or,
if later, on a date designated therein), and on the date that a Successor
Servicer shall have been appointed pursuant to Section 8.03 (such appointment
being herein called a "Servicer Transfer"), all rights, benefits, fees,
indemnities, authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether
with respect to the Loans, the Loan Files or otherwise, shall pass to and be
vested in such successor (the "Successor Servicer") pursuant to and under this
Section 8.02; and, without limitation, the Successor Servicer is authorized and
empowered to execute and deliver on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact
or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do any and all
acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of
termination. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Successor Servicer in
effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Servicer
hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Successor Servicer
for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be held by
the Servicer for deposit, or have been deposited by the Servicer, in the
Principal and Interest Account, or for its own account in connection with its
services hereafter or thereafter received with respect to the Loans. The
Servicer shall transfer to the Successor Servicer (i) all records held by the
Servicer relating to the Loans in such electronic form as the Successor Servicer
may reasonably request and (ii) any Loan Files in the Servicer's possession. In
addition, the Servicer shall permit access to its premises (including all
computer records and programs) to the Successor Servicer or its designee, and
shall pay the reasonable transition expenses of the Successor Servicer. Upon a
Servicer Transfer, the Successor Servicer shall also be entitled to receive the
Servicing Fee for performing the obligations of the Servicer.

                                       92

<PAGE>

Any indemnities provided in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents in
favor of the Servicer and any fees, costs, expenses, Servicing Advances or
Scheduled Payment Advances which have accrued and/or are unpaid to the Servicer
shall survive the resignation or termination of the Servicer.

         SECTION 8.03 APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR SERVICER; RECONVEYANCE; SUCCESSOR
                      SERVICER TO ACT.

         (a)      Upon delivery of the notice required by Section 8.02(a) (or,
if later, on a date designated therein), the Servicer shall continue to perform
all servicing functions under this Agreement until the date specified in the
Termination Notice or, if no such date is specified, until a date mutually
agreed by the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee shall as
promptly as possible after the giving of or receipt of a Termination Notice,
appoint a Successor Servicer, which shall be the Backup Servicer, in accordance
with Section 5.15(c), and named Successor Servicer shall accept its appointment
by a written assumption in a form acceptable to the Indenture Trustee and Owner
Trustee. If within sixty (60) days of delivery of a Termination Notice a
Successor Servicer is not appointed and the Servicer shall have yet to cure the
Servicer Default, then the Indenture Trustee shall offer the Trust Depositor,
and the Trust Depositor shall offer the Originator, the right to accept
retransfer of all the Loan Assets, and such parties may accept retransfer of
such Loan Assets in consideration of the Trust Depositor's delivery to the
Principal and Interest Account on or prior to the next upcoming Remittance Date
of a sum equal to the Aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Securities
(other than the Certificates) then outstanding, together with accrued and unpaid
interest thereon through such date of deposit and all other amounts due and
owing to any Person under the Transaction Documents, including amounts owing to
each Hedge Counterparty, including Hedge Breakage Costs, it being a condition
precedent to such retransfer that all Hedge Transactions then outstanding under
any Hedge Agreements then in effect shall be terminated and all amounts payable
to the Hedge Counterparties, including Hedge Breakage Costs, upon such
termination shall be paid in full; provided, that, the Indenture Trustee, if so
directed by the Majority Noteholders in writing, need not accept and effect such
reconveyance in the absence of evidence (which may include valuations of an
investment bank or similar entity) reasonably acceptable to such Indenture
Trustee or Majority Noteholders that such retransfer would not constitute a
fraudulent conveyance of the Trust Depositor or the Originator.

         (b)      The Backup Servicer may, in its discretion, or shall, if it is
unable to so act or if the Majority Noteholders request in writing to the Backup
Servicer, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any
established servicing institution having a net worth of not less than
$50,000,000 as the Successor Servicer in the assumption of all or any part of
the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer.

         (c)      As compensation, any Successor Servicer (including, without
limitation, the Backup Servicer) so appointed shall be entitled to receive the
Servicing Fee, together with any other servicing compensation in the form of
assumption fees, late payment charges or otherwise as provided herein that
accrued prior thereto; including, without limitation, all reasonable costs
(including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with transferring
the servicing obligations under the Agreement and amending the Agreement to
reflect such transfer.

                                       93

<PAGE>

         (d)      In the event the Backup Servicer is required to solicit bids,
the Backup Servicer shall solicit, by public announcement, bids from banks and
mortgage servicing institutions meeting the qualifications set forth above. Such
public announcement shall specify that the Successor Servicer shall be entitled
to the full amount of the Servicing Fee as servicing compensation, together with
the other servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, late payment
charges or otherwise that accrued prior thereto. Within thirty (30) days after
any such public announcement, the Backup Servicer shall negotiate and effect the
sale, transfer and assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities
hereunder to the qualified party submitting the highest qualifying bid. The
Backup Servicer shall deduct from any sum received by the Backup Servicer from
the successor to the Servicer in respect of such sale, transfer and assignment
all costs and expenses of any public announcement and of any sale, transfer and
assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities hereunder and the amount
of any unreimbursed Servicing Advances. After such deductions, the remainder of
such sum shall be paid by the Backup Servicer to the Servicer at the time of
such sale, transfer and assignment to the Servicer's successor. The Backup
Servicer and such successor shall take such action, consistent with the
Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. Neither the
Backup Servicer nor any other Successor Servicer shall be held liable by reason
of any failure to make, or any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or
any portion thereof caused by (i) the failure of the Servicer to deliver, or any
delay in delivering, cash, documents or records to it, or (ii) restrictions
imposed by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Servicer
hereunder. No appointment of a successor to the Servicer shall be effective
until written notice of such proposed appointment shall have been provided by
the Indenture Trustee to each Securityholder and each Hedge Counterparty and the
Backup Servicer shall have consented thereto. The Backup Servicer shall not
resign as Servicer until a Successor Servicer has been appointed and accepted
such appointment.

         (e)      On or after a Servicer Transfer, the Successor Servicer shall
be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as servicer
under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and
shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating
thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof, and the
terminated Servicer shall be relieved of such responsibilities, duties and
liabilities arising after such Servicer Transfer; provided, however, that (i)
the Successor Servicer will not assume any obligations of the Servicer described
in Section 8.02 and (ii) the Successor Servicer shall not be liable for any acts
or omissions of the Servicer occurring prior to such Servicer Transfer or for
any breach by the Servicer of any of its representations and warranties
contained herein or in any related document or agreement. Notwithstanding
anything else herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee or
the Backup Servicer be liable for any Servicing Fee or for any differential in
the amount of the servicing fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to
induce any Successor Servicer to act as Successor Servicer under this Agreement
and the transactions set forth or provided for herein, including any Additional
Servicing Fee. The Owner Trustee, Securityholders and the Indenture Trustee and
such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall
be necessary to effectuate any such succession. To the extent the terminated
Servicer has made Servicing Advances, it shall be entitled to reimbursement of
the same notwithstanding its termination hereunder, to the same extent as if it
had continued to service the Loans hereunder.

         SECTION 8.04 NOTIFICATION TO SECURITYHOLDERS AND HEDGE COUNTERPARTIES.

                                       94

         (a)      Promptly following the occurrence of any Servicer Default, the
Servicer shall give written notice thereof to the Trustees, the Trust Depositor

the Noteholders and Certificateholder at their respective addresses appearing on
the Note Register and the Certificate Register, respectively, and to each Hedge
Counterparty at the address set forth in the register kept by the Issuer, as
provided under the Indenture.

         (b)      Within ten (10) days following any termination of the Servicer

Trustee shall give written notice thereof to each Rating Agency and the Trust
Depositor at the addresses described in Section 13.04 hereof, to the Noteholders
and Certificateholder at their respective addresses appearing on the Note
Register and the Certificate Register, respectively, and to each Hedge
Counterparty at the address set forth for such party in the register kept by the
Issuer, as provided under the Indenture.

         SECTION 8.05 EFFECT OF TRANSFER.

         (a)      After a Servicer Transfer, the terminated Servicer shall have
no further obligations with respect to the management, administration,
servicing, custody or collection of the Loans and the Successor Servicer
appointed pursuant to Section 8.03 shall have all of such obligations, except
that the terminated Servicer will transmit or cause to be transmitted directly
to the Successor Servicer for its own account, promptly on receipt and in the
same form in which received, any amounts (properly endorsed where required for
the Successor Servicer to collect them) received as payments upon or otherwise
in connection with the Loans.

         (b)      A Servicer Transfer shall not affect the rights and duties of
the parties hereunder (including but not limited to the indemnities of the
Servicer) other than those relating to the management, administration,
servicing, custody or collection of the Loans.

         SECTION 8.06 DATABASE FILE.

         Upon reasonable request by the Indenture Trustee or the Backup
Servicer, the Servicer will provide the Successor Servicer with a magnetic tape
containing the database file for each Loan (a) as of the Cut-Off Date, (b) the
Subsequent Cut-Off Dates, (c) thereafter, as of the last day of the preceding
Due Period on the Determination Date prior to a Servicer Default and (d) on and
as of the Business Day before the actual commencement of servicing functions by
the Successor Servicer following the occurrence of a Servicer Default.

         SECTION 8.07 WAIVER OF DEFAULTS.

         The Majority Noteholders may, on behalf of all the Securityholders, and
subject to satisfying the Rating Agency Condition, waive any events permitting
removal of the Servicer pursuant to this ARTICLE 8; provided, however, that the
Majority Noteholders may not waive a default in making a required distribution
to the Hedge Counterparties without the consent of the Hedge Counterparties or
on a Note without the consent of each holder of such Note. Upon any waiver or
cure of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Servicer
Default or Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been
remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver or cure shall
extend to any subsequent or other default or

                                       95

<PAGE>

impair any right consequent thereto except to the extent expressly so waived. No
such waivers shall affect any Hedge Transaction that has been terminated in
accordance with its terms.

         SECTION 8.08 RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE SUCCESSOR SERVICER.

         (a)      The Successor Servicer will not be responsible for delays
attributable to the Servicer's failure to deliver information, defects in the

of the Successor Servicer.

         (b)      The Successor Servicer will make arrangements with the
Servicer for the prompt and safe transfer of, and the Servicer shall provide to
the Successor Servicer, all necessary servicing files and records, including (as
deemed necessary by the Successor Servicer at such time): (i) microfiche loan
documentation, (ii) servicing system tapes, (iii) Loan payment history, (iv)
collections history and (v) the trial balances, as of the close of business on
the day immediately preceding conversion to the Successor Servicer, reflecting
all applicable Loan information. The current Servicer shall be obligated to pay
the costs associated with the transfer of the servicing files and records to the
Successor Servicer.

         (c)      The Successor Servicer shall have no responsibility and shall
not be in default hereunder nor incur any liability for any failure, error,
malfunction or any delay in carrying out any of its duties under this Agreement
if any such failure or delay results from the Successor Servicer acting in
accordance with information prepared or supplied by a Person other than the
Successor Servicer or the failure of any such Person to prepare or provide such
information. The Successor Servicer shall have no responsibility, shall not be
in default and shall incur no liability (i) for any act or failure to act by any
third party, including the Servicer, the Trust Depositor or the Trustees or for
any inaccuracy or omission in a notice or communication received by the
Successor Servicer from any third party or (ii) which is due to or results from
the invalidity, unenforceability of any Loan with applicable law or the breach
or the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made with respect to any
Loan.

         (d)      If the Indenture Trustee or any other Successor Servicer
assumes the role of Successor Servicer hereunder, such Successor Servicer shall

         SECTION 8.09 RATING AGENCY CONDITION FOR SERVICER TRANSFER.

                      SERVICER TO ACT.

         (a)      The Backup Servicer may be removed, with or without cause, by
the Majority Noteholders or the Indenture Trustee, by notice given in writing to
the Backup Servicer (the "Backup Servicer Termination Notice"). The Backup
Servicer shall continue to perform all backup servicing functions under this
Agreement until the date specified in the Backup Servicer

Backup Servicer shall not be liable for any acts or omissions of the Backup
Servicer occurring prior to such Backup Servicer Transfer or for any breach by
the Backup Servicer of any of its representations and warranties contained
herein or in any related document or agreement. As compensation therefor, the
Successor Backup Servicer shall be entitled to receive reasonable compensation
equal to the monthly Backup Servicing Fee. Notwithstanding anything else herein
to the contrary, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer be
liable for any Backup Servicing Fee or for any differential in the amount of the
backup servicing fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any
Successor Backup Servicer to act as Backup Servicer under this Agreement and the
transactions set forth or provided for herein. The Owner Trustee,
Securityholders and the Indenture Trustee and such successor shall take such
action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any
such succession.

<PAGE>

         SECTION 9.03 OTHER DATA.

         In addition, the Servicer shall, upon the request of any Trustees, any
Hedge Counterparty, the Backup Servicer, or any Rating Agency, furnish such
Trustee, Hedge Counterparty, Rating Agency or the Backup Servicer, as the case
may be, such underlying data used to generate a Monthly Report as may be

Servicer and each Rating Agency, on or before March 31 (ninety (90) days after
the end of the Servicer's fiscal year) of each year, beginning on March 31,
2004, a report addressed to the Board of Managers of the Servicer, the Indenture
Trustee and the Owner Trustee indicating that (a) with respect to the twelve
(12) months ended the immediately preceding December 31, to the effect that such
Independent Accountants have audited the financial statements of the Servicer,
that as part of that audit, nothing came to the attention of such Independent
Accountants that causes them to believe that the Servicer was not in compliance
with any of the terms, covenants, provisions or conditions of the relevant
sections of this Agreement, insofar as they relate to accounting matters, except
for such exceptions as such Independent Accountants shall believe to be
immaterial and such other exceptions as shall be set forth in such report, (b)
in connection with the Independent Accountants' audit of the Servicer, there
were no exceptions or errors in records related to Loans serviced by the
Servicer, except for such exceptions as such Independent Accountants shall

report, (c) the payment testing for Asset Based Revolvers has been reviewed and
such testing is in compliance with the terms of the related Required Loan

as agreed by the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee, whereby
the Independent Accountants will obtain the Monthly Report for four months with
respect to the twelve (12) months ended the immediately preceding December 31
and, for each Monthly Report, the Independent Accountants will agree all amounts
in the Monthly Report to the Servicer's computer, accounting and other reports,
which will include in such report any amounts which were not in agreement. In
the event such firm of Independent Accountants requires the Indenture Trustee to
agree to the procedures performed by such firm of Independent Accountants, the
Servicer shall direct the Indenture Trustee in writing to so agree; it being
understood and agreed that the Indenture Trustee will deliver such letter of
agreement in conclusive reliance upon the direction of the Servicer, and the
Indenture Trustee will not make any independent inquiry or investigation as to,

validity

                                       98

or correctness of such procedures. The Independent Accountants' report shall
also indicate that the firm is independent of the Servicer within the meaning of
the Code of Professional Ethics of the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants.

         SECTION 9.05 ANNUAL STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE FROM SERVICER.

to be taken to remedy such event. A copy of such certificate may be obtained by
any Securityholder by a request in writing to the Indenture Trustee, with
respect to any Noteholder, or the Owner Trustee, with respect to any
Certificateholder.

         Each year the Servicer shall make the reports of foreclosures and
abandonment of any Mortgaged Property as and to the extent required by ss. 6050J

shall provide the Indenture Trustee with an Officer's Certificate certifying
that such report has been filed.

         SECTION 9.07 NOTICES.

         (a)      The Servicer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee and each

defaults or potential breaches) given to or received from its other lenders and
(ii) immediately, notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default or Servicer
Default or of any situation which the Servicer reasonably expects to develop

                      AUDIT OPERATIONS.

         The Indenture Trustee and each Hedge Counterparty shall have the right
upon reasonable prior notice, during normal business hours, in a manner that
does not unreasonably interfere with the Servicer's normal operations or
customer or employee relations, and as often as reasonably required, to examine
and audit any and all of the books, records or other information of the
Servicer, whether held by the Servicer or by another on behalf of the Servicer,
which may be relevant to the performance or observance by the Servicer of the
terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement. No amounts payable in respect
of the foregoing shall be paid from the Loan Assets.

                                   TERMINATION

         (a)      Upon any sale of the assets of the Issuer pursuant to Section
9.01 of the Trust Agreement, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee
in writing to deposit the proceeds from such sale after all payments and
reserves therefrom have been made (the "Insolvency Proceeds") in the Principal
and Interest Account. On the Remittance Date on which the Insolvency Proceeds
are deposited in the Principal and Interest Account (or, if such proceeds are
not so deposited on a Remittance Date, on the Remittance Date immediately
following such deposit), the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee in
writing to allocate and apply (after the application on such Remittance Date of
Principal Collections and Interest Collections pursuant to Section 7.05) the
Insolvency Proceeds as if (and in the same order of priority as) the Insolvency
Proceeds were Interest Collections being allocated and distributed on such date
pursuant to Section 7.05(c).

         (b)      As described in Article 9 of the Trust Agreement, notice of
any termination of the Issuer shall be given by the Servicer to the Owner
Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and each Hedge Counterparty as soon as
practicable after the Servicer has received notice thereof.

         (c)      Following the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture, the
payment in full of the principal of and interest on the Notes, the termination
of all Hedge Transactions then outstanding under all Hedge Agreements then in
effect and the payment in full of all amounts, including Hedge Breakage Costs,
payable to such Hedge Counterparties upon such terminations, the
Certificateholders will succeed to the rights of the Noteholders hereunder and
the Owner Trustee will succeed to the rights of the Indenture Trustee pursuant
to this Agreement.

         SECTION 10.02 TERMINATION.

         (a)      This Agreement shall terminate upon notice to the Indenture
Trustee of the earlier of the following events: (i) the final payment on or the
disposition or other liquidation by the Issuer of the last Loan or the
disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of
foreclosure of any Loan and the remittance of all funds due thereunder, or (ii)
mutual written

                                      100

<PAGE>

consent of the Servicer, the Trust Depositor, Indenture Trustee, the Originator,
all Securityholders and all Hedge Counterparties.

         (b)      Notice of any termination, specifying the Remittance Date upon
which the Issuer will terminate and that the Noteholders shall surrender their
Notes to the Indenture Trustee for payment of the final distribution and
cancellation shall be given promptly by the Servicer by letter to all
Noteholders mailed during the month of such final distribution before the
Determination Date in such month, specifying (i) the Remittance Date upon which
final payment of the Notes will be made upon presentation and surrender of Notes
at the office of the Indenture Trustee therein designated, (ii) the amount of
any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to
such Remittance Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon
presentation and surrender of the Notes at the office of the Indenture Trustee
therein specified. The Servicer shall give such notice to the Indenture Trustee
and the Hedge Counterparties at the time such notice is given to Noteholders.

                                   ARTICLE 11.

                        REMEDIES UPON MISREPRESENTATION;
                                REPURCHASE OPTION

         SECTION 11.01 REPURCHASES OF, OR SUBSTITUTION FOR, LOANS FOR BREACH OF
                       REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

         Upon a discovery by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer or any
subservicer, a Responsible Officer of the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee
of a breach of Section 2.05(b) or a breach of a representation or warranty as
set forth in Section 3.01, Section 3.02, Section 3.03, Section 3.04 or Section
3.05 or as made or deemed made in any Addition Notice or any Subsequent Purchase
Agreement relating to Substitute Loans that materially and adversely affects the
value of the Loans or the interests of the Securityholders or the Hedge
Counterparties therein or which materially and adversely affects the interests
of the Securityholders or the Hedge Counterparties in the related Loan in the
case of a representation or warranty relating to a particular Loan
(notwithstanding that such representation or warranty was made to the
Originator's or the Trust Depositor's best knowledge) (an "Ineligible Loan"),
the party discovering the breach shall give prompt written notice to the other
parties and to each Hedge Counterparty; provided, that, the Indenture Trustee
shall have no duty or obligation to inquire or to investigate the breach of any
of such representations or warranties. Within thirty (30) days of the earlier of
its discovery or its receipt of notice of any breach of a representation or
warranty, the Originator or Trust Depositor shall (a) promptly cure such breach
in all material respects, (b) repurchase each such Ineligible Loan by depositing
in the Principal and Interest Account, within such thirty (30) day period, an
amount equal to the Transfer Deposit Amount, or (c) remove such Loan from the
Issuer and effect a substitution for such affected Loan with a Substitute Loan
in accordance with the substitution requirements set forth in Section 2.04, not
later than the date a repurchase of such affected Loan would be required
hereunder; provided, however, that with respect to a breach of a representation
or warranty relating to the Loans in the aggregate and not to any particular
Loan, the Originator may select Loans (without adverse selection) to repurchase
(or substitute for) such that had such Loans not been included as part of the
Loan Assets (and, in the case of a substitution, had such Substitute Loan been
included as

                                      101

<PAGE>

part of the Loan Assets instead of the selected Loan) there would have been no
breach of such representation or warranty.

         SECTION 11.02 REASSIGNMENT OF REPURCHASED OR SUBSTITUTED LOANS.

         Upon receipt by the Indenture Trustee for deposit in the Principal and
Interest Account of the amounts described in Section 11.01 (or upon the
Subsequent Transfer Date related to a Substitute Loan described in Section
11.01), and upon receipt of an Officer's Certificate of the Servicer in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit F, the Indenture Trustee shall assign to the Trust
Depositor and the Trust Depositor shall assign to the Originator all of the
Issuer's (or Trust Depositor's, as applicable) right, title and interest in the
repurchased or substituted Loan and related Loan Assets without recourse,
representation or warranty. Such reassigned Loan shall no longer thereafter be
included in any calculations of Outstanding Loan Balances required to be made
hereunder or otherwise be deemed a part of the Issuer.

                                   INDEMNITIES

         SECTION 12.01 INDEMNIFICATION BY SERVICER.

         The Servicer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Indenture Trustee
(as such and in its individual capacity), the Owner Trustee (as such and in its
individual capacity), the Backup Servicer, the Hedge Counterparties (as such and
in their individual capacities) and each Securityholder harmless from and
against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable
legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other reasonable costs, fees
and expenses that such Person may sustain as a result of the Servicer's fraud or
the failure of the Servicer to perform its duties and service the Loans in
compliance in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement, except to
the extent arising from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud by the
Person claiming indemnification. The Servicer shall immediately notify the
Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee if a claim is made by any party with
respect to this Agreement, and the Servicer shall assume (with the consent of
the indemnified party) the defense and any settlement of any such claim and pay
all expenses in connection therewith, including reasonable counsel fees, and
promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered
against the indemnified party in respect of such claim.

         SECTION 12.02 INDEMNIFICATION BY TRUST DEPOSITOR.

         The Trust Depositor agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold the Indenture
Trustee (as such and in its individual capacity), the Owner Trustee (as such and
in its individual capacity), the Hedge Counterparties (as such and in their
individual capacities) and each Securityholder harmless from and against any and
all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and
related costs, judgments, and any other reasonable costs, fees and expenses that
such Person may sustain as a result of the Trust Depositor's fraud or the
failure of the Trust Depositor to perform its duties in compliance with the
terms of this Agreement and in the best interests of the Securityholders and
Hedge Counterparties, except to the extent arising from the gross negligence,
willful misconduct or fraud by the Person claiming indemnification. The Trust

                                      102

<PAGE>

Depositor shall immediately notify the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee
if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement, and the
Trust Depositor shall assume (with the consent of the indemnified party) the
defense and any settlement of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection
therewith, including reasonable counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and
satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against the indemnified
party in respect of such claim.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         SECTION 13.01 AMENDMENT.

         (a)      This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties
hereto by written agreement, with the prior written consent of the Indenture
Trustee but without notice to or consent of the Securityholders or Hedge
Counterparties, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions
herein, to comply with any changes in the Code, or to make any other provisions
with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement which shall

the Holder of such Note or Certificate, or change the rights or obligations of
any other party hereto without the consent of such party.

         (b)      This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties
hereto by written agreement, with the prior written consent of the Indenture
Trustee and with the consent of the Majority Noteholders and each Hedge

however, that (i) no such amendment shall reduce in any manner the amount of, or
delay the timing of, any amounts which are required to be distributed on any
Note or Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Note or
Certificate or reduce the percentage of Holders of any Note or Certificate which

of 100% of the Notes affected thereby, (ii) no amendment affecting only one (1)
Class shall require the approval of the Holders of any other Class and (iii) (A)

Indenture Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such
amendment or consent, together with a copy thereof, to each Rating Agency. Prior

         (d)      Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent,
the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, shall furnish
written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to each
Securityholder and each Hedge Counterparty. It shall not be necessary for the
consent of the Securityholders and the Hedge Counterparties pursuant to Section
13.01(b) to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or consent,
but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.
The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization by the
Securityholders and the Hedge Counterparties of the execution thereof shall be
subject to such reasonable requirements as the Owner Trustee or the Indenture
Trustee may prescribe.

         (e)      Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the
Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive and
conclusively rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such
amendment is authorized and permitted by this Agreement. Such Trustee may, but

Trustee's own rights, duties, indemnities or immunities under this Agreement or
otherwise.

PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT
OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION

                                      107

<PAGE>

         (a)      Each of the Originator, the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer,
the Issuer acting through the Owner Trustee and each Holder (by acceptance of
the applicable Securities) covenants and agrees that, prior to the date that is
one (1) year and one (1) day after the payment in full of all amounts owing in
respect of all outstanding Classes of Notes rated by any Rating Agency, it will
not institute against the Trust Depositor or the Issuer, or join any other
Person in instituting against the Trust Depositor or the Issuer, any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other
similar proceedings under the laws of the United States or any state of the
United States; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prohibit the
Indenture Trustee from filing proofs of claim or otherwise participating in any
such proceedings instituted by any other Person. This Section 13.09 will survive
the termination of this Agreement.

         (b)      The Issuer acknowledges and agrees that the Certificates
represent a beneficial interest in the Issuer and Loan Assets only and the
Securities do not represent an interest in any assets (other than the Loan
Assets) of the Trust Depositor (including by virtue of any deficiency claim in
respect of obligations not paid or otherwise satisfied from the Loan Assets and
proceeds thereof). In furtherance of and not in derogation of the foregoing, to
the extent that the Trust Depositor enters into other securitization
transactions as contemplated in Section 6.07, the Issuer acknowledges and agrees
that it shall have no right, title or interest in or to any assets (or interests
therein), other than the Loan Assets, conveyed or purported to be conveyed
(whether by way of a sale, capital contribution or by the granting of a Lien) by
the Trust Depositor to any Person other than the Issuer (the "Other Assets").

         (c)      To the extent that notwithstanding the agreements contained in
this Section 13.09, the Issuer, any Securityholder or any Hedge Counterparty,
either (i) asserts an interest in or claim to, or benefit from any Other Assets,
whether asserted against or through the Trust Depositor or any other Person
owned by the Trust Depositor, or (ii) is deemed to have any interest, claim or
benefit in or from any Other Assets, whether by operation of law, legal process,
pursuant to applicable provisions of Insolvency Laws or otherwise (including
without limitation pursuant to Section 1111(b) of the federal Bankruptcy Code,
as amended) and whether deemed asserted against or through the Trust Depositor
or any other Person owned by the Trust Depositor, then the Issuer, each
Securityholder by accepting a Note or Certificate and each Hedge Counterparty
further acknowledges and agrees that any such interest, claim or benefit in or
from the Other Assets is and shall be expressly subordinated to the indefeasible
payment in full of all obligations and liabilities of the Trust Depositor that,
under the terms of the documents relating to the securitization of the Other
Assets, are entitled to be paid from, entitled to the benefits of, or otherwise
secured by such Other Assets (whether or not any such entitlement or security
interest is legally perfected or otherwise entitled to a priority of
distribution under applicable law, including Insolvency Laws, and whether
asserted against the Trust Depositor or any other Person owned by the Trust
Depositor) including, without limitation, the payment of post-petition interest
on such other obligations and liabilities. This subordination agreement shall be
deemed a subordination agreement within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the
Bankruptcy Code. Each of the Issuer, the Hedge Counterparties and the
Securityholders is deemed to have acknowledged and agreed that no adequate
remedy at law exists for a breach of this Section 13.09 and that the terms and
provisions of this Section 13.09 may be enforced by an action for specific
performance.

                                      108

         (d)      The provisions of this Section 13.09 shall be for the third
party benefit of those entitled to rely thereon, including the Securityholders
and the Hedge Counterparties, and shall survive the termination of this
Agreement.

         SECTION 13.10 JURISDICTION.

         Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement may be
brought in the courts of the United States for the Southern District of New
York, and by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party hereto
consents, for itself and in respect of its property, to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of those courts. Each such party irrevocably waives any objection,
including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum
non conveniens, which it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any action
or proceeding in such jurisdiction in respect of this Agreement or any document
related hereto.

         SECTION 13.11 TAX CHARACTERIZATION.

         Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.01 and Section 2.04 hereof,
the Trust Depositor and Owner Trustee agree that, pursuant to Treasury
Regulations Section 301.7701-3(b)(1) and for federal income tax purposes, in the
event that the Certificates and the Class E Notes are owned by more than one
Holder, the Issuer will be treated as a partnership the partners of which are
the Certificateholders and the Holders of the Class E Notes, and in the event
that the Certificates the Class E Notes are owned by a single Holder, the Issuer
will be treated as a division of such Holder.

         SECTION 13.12 PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE ISSUER.

         The Originator shall not:

         (a)      Provide credit to any Noteholder or Certificateholder for the
purpose of enabling such Noteholder or Certificateholder to purchase Notes or
Certificates, respectively;

         (b)      Purchase any Notes or Certificates in an agency or trustee
capacity; or

         (c)      Except in its capacity as Servicer as provided in this
Agreement, lend any money to the Issuer.

         SECTION 13.13 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY OF OWNER TRUSTEE.

         Wilmington Trust Company acts on behalf of the Issuer solely as Owner
Trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity, and all Persons having any
claim against the Issuer by reason of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall look only to the Trust Estate
under the Trust Agreement for payment or satisfaction thereof. The Owner Trustee
makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement,
any other Transaction Document or the Notes, or of any Loan or related
documents. The Owner Trustee shall at no time have any responsibility or
liability for or with respect to the legality, validity and enforceability of
any Loan, or the perfection and priority of any security interest created by any
Loan in any Collateral or the maintenance of any such perfection and priority,
or for or with respect to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate under the

                                      109

<PAGE>

Trust Agreement or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed to the
Certificateholder under the Trust Agreement or the Noteholders under the
Indenture, including, without limitation, the existence, condition and ownership
of any Collateral; the existence and enforceability of any insurance thereon;
the existence and contents of any Loan on any computer or other record thereof;
the validity of the assignment of any Loan to the Issuer or of any intervening
assignment; the completeness of any Loan; the performance or enforcement of any
Loan; the compliance by the Issuer, the Trust Depositor or the Servicer with any
covenant, agreement or other obligation or any warranty or representation made
under any Transaction Document or in any related document or the accuracy of any
such warranty or representation; or any action of the Indenture Trustee or the
Servicer or any subservicer taken in the name of the Owner Trustee or the
Issuer.

         SECTION 13.14 ALLOCATION OF PAYMENTS WITH RESPECT TO LOANS.

         (a)      With respect to any Partially Funded Term Loans and any
Revolving Loans, the Issuer will own only the principal portion of such Loans
outstanding as of the applicable Cut-Off Date. Principal Collections received by
the Servicer on any Revolving Loans (other than Loans to SPE Obligors) will be
allocated first to the portion of such Loan not owned by the Issuer, until the
principal amount of such portion is reduced to zero, and then to the portion
owned by the Issuer; provided, however, if (i) a payment default occurs with
respect to any of the related Loans (and in the case of Asset Based Revolvers, a
payment default shall mean any failure to make a payment on the date such
payment is due and such failure continues for more than one (1) calendar day),
(ii) the Originator has determined in its sole discretion that an Obligor's
credit has deteriorated or the Originator has determined in its sole discretion
to reduce its commitment to an Obligor, (iii) an Event of Default occurs, (iv) a
Servicer Default occurs, or (v) an Accelerated Amortization Event occurs, then
Principal Collections received on (A) the applicable Loan (in the case of clause
(i) or (ii) above) or (B) all the Revolving Loans (in the case of clauses (iii),
(iv) and (v) above) will be allocated between the portion not owned by the
Issuer and the portion owned by the Issuer, pro rata based upon the outstanding
principal amount of each such portion. So long as there is no (1) payment
default on the related Loans (and in the case of Asset Based Revolvers, a
payment default shall mean any failure to make a payment on the date such
payment is due and such failure continues for more than one (1) calendar day),
(2) Servicer Default, (3) Event of Default, or (4) Accelerated Amortization
Event, the Servicer will determine the Outstanding Loan Balance, the Retained
Interest (if any) and the Principal Collections received with respect to any
Revolving Loan secured by Collateral on each Monthly Reconciliation Date, and
all other Loans (including Revolving Loans not secured by any Collateral) and in
all other cases on each Business Day, pursuant to Section 7.07.

         (b)      With respect to any Revolving Loan (other than Loans to SPE
Obligors), Interest Collections received by the Servicer on those Loans will be
allocated between the portion not owned by the Issuer and the portion owned by
the Issuer on a pro rata basis according to the outstanding principal amount of
each such portion.

         (c)      With respect to any Fully Funded Term Loans, Partially Funded
Term Loans and Loans to SPE Obligors, Principal Collections and Interest
Collections received by the Servicer will be allocated between the portion not
owned by the Issuer (if any) and the portion owned by the Issuer on a pro rata
basis according to the outstanding principal amount of such portion.

         SECTION 13.15 NO PARTNERSHIP.

parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

         SECTION 13.17 ACTS OF HOLDERS.

consent or approval shall be deemed to have been taken or given on behalf of,
and shall be binding upon, all Holders if the Majority Noteholders agree to take
such action or give such consent or approval.

         SECTION 13.18 DURATION OF AGREEMENT.

         This Agreement shall continue in existence and effect until terminated
as herein provided.

         SECTION 13.19 LIMITED RECOURSE.

amount owing by the Trust Depositor, the Originator, and the Servicer under this
Agreement or for the payment by the Trust Depositor, the Originator and the
Servicer of any fee in respect hereof or any other obligation or claim of or
