         Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 2.4, the
Issuer may require the payment by the Holder of such Note of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation
thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of
the Indenture Trustee) connected therewith.

         Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.4 in
replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by
anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

         The provisions of this Section 2.4 are exclusive and shall preclude (to
the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement
or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

Distribution Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note (or one or
more Predecessor Notes) is registered on the Record Date in the manner set forth
in Section 5.01(c) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

         (b) The principal of each Note shall be payable in installments on each

Final Distribution Date, (ii) the Redemption Date or (iii) the date on which an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if the Indenture
Trustee, the Insurer or the Holders of Notes representing not less than a
majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes have declared the Notes to be
immediately due and payable in the manner provided in Section 5.2 hereof. All
principal payments on the Notes shall be in the manner set forth in the Sale and
Servicing Agreement. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Person in whose name
a Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date preceding the
Distribution Date on which the Issuer expects that the final installment of
principal of and interest on such Note will be paid. Such notice shall be mailed
or transmitted by facsimile prior to such Final Distribution Date and shall
specify that such final installment will be payable only upon presentation and
surrender of such Note and shall specify the place where such Note may be
presented and surrendered for payment of such installment. Notices in connection
with redemptions of Notes shall be mailed to Noteholders as provided in Section
8.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the
Indenture Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for
any Notes canceled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by
this Indenture. All canceled Notes may be held or disposed of by the Indenture
Trustee in accordance with its standard retention or disposal policy as in
effect at the time unless the Issuer shall direct by an Issuer Order that they
be destroyed or returned to it; provided, that such Issuer Order is timely and
the Notes have not been previously disposed of by the Indenture Trustee.

         sole holder of the Notes, and shall have no obligation to the Note
         Owners;

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

                  (iv) the rights of Note Owners shall be exercised only through
         the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law
         and agreements between such Note Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or
         the Clearing Agency Participants pursuant to the Note Depository
         Agreement. Unless and until Definitive Notes are issued pursuant to

         Participants; and

                     (v) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to
         be taken based upon instructions or directions of Holders of Notes
         evidencing a specified percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the

         only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect
         from Note Owners and/or Clearing Agency Participants owning or
         representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial
         interest in the Notes and has delivered such instructions to the
         Indenture Trustee.

         SECTION 2.11 NOTICES TO CLEARING AGENCY. Whenever a notice or other
communication to the Noteholders is required under this Indenture, unless and

communications specified herein to be given to Holders of the Notes, to the
Clearing Agency, and shall have no obligation to such Note Owners.

         SECTION 2.12 DEFINITIVE NOTES. If (i) the Clearing Agency or the Issuer
advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency is no longer
willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to the
Book-Entry Notes and the Clearing Agency or the Issuer is unable to locate a
qualified successor, (ii) the Issuer at its option advises the Indenture Trustee
in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the
Clearing Agency or (iii) after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Owners of
the Book-Entry Notes representing beneficial interests aggregating at least a
majority of the Outstanding Amount of such Notes advise the Clearing Agency in
writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Clearing Agency
is no longer in the best interests of such Note Owners, then the Clearing Agency
shall notify all Note Owners and the Indenture Trustee of the occurrence of such
event and of the availability of Definitive Notes to Note Owners requesting the
same. Upon surrender to the Indenture Trustee of the typewritten Notes
representing the Book-Entry Notes by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by
registration instructions, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee
shall authenticate the Definitive Notes in accordance with the instructions of
the Clearing Agency. None of the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture
Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may
conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions.
Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes, the Indenture Trustee shall recognize the
Holders of the Definitive Notes as Noteholders.

         SECTION 2.13 TAX TREATMENT. The Issuer has entered into this Indenture,
and the Notes will be issued, with the intention that, for all tax purposes, the
Class A-1 Notes will qualify as indebtedness secured by the Collateral relating
to Group 1, the Class A-2 Notes will qualify as indebtedness secured by the
Collateral relating to Group 2 and the Class A-3 Notes will qualify as
indebtedness secured by the Collateral relating to Group 3. The Issuer, by
entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder, by its acceptance of a Note
(and each Note Owner by its acceptance of an interest in the applicable
Book-Entry Note), agree to treat the Notes for all purposes as indebtedness of
the Issuer.

it is not an "employee benefit plan" within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA
or a "plan" within the meaning of Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, or an entity whose underlying assets include plan

provided in this Indenture. The Issuer shall not otherwise be liable for
payments on the Notes. If any other provision of this Indenture shall be deemed

purposes and to serve as Paying Agent with respect to the Notes. If at any time
the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such office or agency or shall fail to
furnish the Indenture Trustee with the address thereof, such surrenders, notices
and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office, and the Issuer
hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as its agent to receive all such

                  (ii)  give the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer notice of any

         with respect to the Notes;

                  (iii) at any time during the continuance of any such default,

         applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any

         however, that with respect to withholding and reporting requirements
         applicable to original issue discount (if any) on the Notes, the Issuer
         shall have first provided the calculations pertaining thereto to the
         Indenture Trustee.

         The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer
Order direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held in
trust by such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Indenture Trustee upon

         SECTION 3.7 PERFORMANCE OF OBLIGATIONS; SERVICING OF HOME EQUITY LOANS.

         (a) The Issuer will not take any action and will use its best efforts
not to permit any action to be taken by others that would release any Person
from any of such Person's material covenants or obligations under any instrument
or agreement included in any Trust Estate or that would result in the amendment,
hypothecation, subordination, termination or discharge of, or impair the
validity or effectiveness of, any such instrument or agreement, except as
expressly provided in this Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement or such
other instrument or agreement.

         (b) The Issuer may contract with or otherwise obtain the assistance of
other Persons to assist it in performing its duties under this Indenture, and
any performance of such duties by a Person identified to the Indenture Trustee
in an Officer's Certificate of the Issuer shall be deemed to be action taken by
the Issuer. Initially, the Issuer has contracted with the Administrator and
Centex to assist the Issuer in performing its duties under this Indenture.

         (c) The Issuer will punctually perform and observe all of its
obligations and agreements contained in this Indenture, the Transaction
Documents and in the instruments and agreements included in each Trust Estate,
including but not limited to (i) filing or causing to be filed all UCC financing
statements and continuation statements required to be filed by the terms of this
Indenture, and the Sale and Servicing Agreement and (ii) recording or causing to
be recorded all Mortgages, Assignments of Mortgage, all intervening Assignments
of Mortgage and all assumption and modification agreements required to be
recorded by the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement in accordance with and
within the time periods provided for in this Indenture and/or the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, as applicable. Except as otherwise expressly provided
therein, the Issuer shall not waive, amend, modify, supplement or terminate any
Transaction Document or any provision thereof without the consent of the
Indenture Trustee, the Insurer and the Holders of at least a majority of the
Outstanding Amount of the Notes.

         (d) Subject to the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, if the
Issuer shall have knowledge of the occurrence of an Event of Servicing
Termination under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall promptly
notify the Indenture Trustee, the Seller, the Depositor, the Insurer, the
Servicer and the Rating Agencies thereof, and shall specify in such notice the
action, if any, the Servicer is taking with respect of such default. If such an
Event of Servicing Termination shall arise from the failure of the Servicer to
perform any of its duties or obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement
with respect to the Home Equity Loans, the Issuer shall take all reasonable
steps available to it to remedy or cause to be remedied such failure.

         (e) Subject to the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, as
promptly as possible after the giving of notice of termination to the Servicer
of the Servicer's rights and powers pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, a successor servicer (the "Successor Servicer") shall be
appointed pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. If the
Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the Servicer's duties as servicer of the Home
Equity Loans as provided herein, it shall do so in its individual capacity and
not in its capacity as Indenture Trustee and, accordingly, the provisions of
Article VI hereof shall be inapplicable to the Indenture Trustee in its duties
as successor Servicer and the servicing of the

                                       21

<PAGE>

Home Equity Loans. In case the Indenture Trustee shall become successor Servicer
under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled
to appoint as Successor Servicer any one of its Affiliates acceptable to the
Insurer, provided that it shall be fully liable for the actions and omissions of
such Affiliate in such capacity as Successor Servicer.

         (f) Without derogating from the absolute nature of the assignment
granted to the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture or the rights of the
Indenture Trustee hereunder, the Issuer agrees (i) that it will not, without the
prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld), amend, modify, waive, supplement, terminate
or surrender, or agree to any amendment, modification, supplement, termination,
waiver or surrender of, the terms of any Trust Estate (except to the extent
otherwise provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the other Transaction
Documents), or waive timely performance or observance by the Servicer or the
Seller under the Sale and Servicing Agreement; and (ii) that any such amendment
shall not (A) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or
delay the timing of, distributions that are required to be made for the benefit
of the Noteholders or (B) reduce the aforesaid percentage of the Notes that is
required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the Holders of
all the outstanding Notes. If any such amendment, modification, supplement or
waiver shall be so consented to by the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer, the
Issuer agrees, promptly following a request by the Indenture Trustee or the
Insurer to do so, to execute and deliver, in its own name and at its own
expense, such agreements, instruments, consents and other documents as the
Indenture Trustee or the Insurer may deem necessary or appropriate in the
circumstances.

         SECTION 3.8 NEGATIVE COVENANTS. So long as any Notes are Outstanding,
the Issuer shall not, unless the Insurer otherwise consents in writing:

                  (i) except as expressly permitted by this Indenture or the
         Sale and Servicing Agreement, sell, transfer, exchange or otherwise
         dispose of any of the properties or assets of the Issuer, including
         those included in any Trust Estate, unless directed to do so by the
         Indenture Trustee and consented to by the Insurer;

                  (ii) claim any credit on, or make any deduction from the
         principal or interest payable in respect of, the Notes (other than
         amounts properly withheld from such payments under the Code) or assert
         any claim against any present or former Noteholder by reason of the
         payment of the taxes levied or assessed upon any part of the related
         Trust Estate;

         The Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee, and the Insurer
within five days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an
Officer's Certificate of any event which with the giving of notice and the lapse
of time would become an Event of Default under clause (c) above, its status and
what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

         SECTION 5.2    ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT.
If an Event of Default should occur and be continuing, then and in every such
case the Indenture Trustee, at the direction of the Insurer or upon the prior
written direction of the Holders of Notes representing not less than a
majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, with the written consent of
the Insurer, may declare all the Notes to be immediately due and payable, by
a notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by
Noteholders), and upon any such declaration the unpaid principal amount of
such Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the
date of acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable.

         At any time after such declaration of acceleration of maturity has been
made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been
obtained by the Indenture Trustee as hereinafter in this Article V provided, the
Insurer or the Holders of Notes representing a majority of the Outstanding
Amount of the Notes, with the written consent of the Insurer, by written notice
to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration
and its consequences if:

         (a) the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Indenture Trustee a sum
sufficient to pay:

                  (i) all payments of principal of and interest on all Notes and
         all other amounts that would then be due hereunder or upon such Notes
         if the Event of Default giving rise to such acceleration had not
         occurred; and

                  (ii) all sums paid or advanced by the Indenture Trustee
         hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
         advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel; and

         (b) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal
of the Notes that has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or
waived as provided in Section 5.12 below.

         No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any
right consequent thereto.

         SECTION 5.3    COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT
BY INDENTURE TRUSTEE.

         (a) The Issuer covenants that if (i) default occurs in the payment of
any interest on any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and such default
continues for a period of five days, or (ii) default occurs in the payment of
the principal of or any installment of the principal of

                                      32

<PAGE>

any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and such default continues
for a period of five days, the Issuer will, upon demand of the Indenture
Trustee or the Insurer if the Insurer has made a payment under an Insurance
Policy, pay to the Indenture Trustee or the Insurer, as applicable, for the
benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on
such Notes for principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue
principal and, to the extent payment at such rate of interest shall be
legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest at the rate borne
by the Notes and in addition thereto such further amount as shall be
sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Indenture Trustee, the Insurer and its agents and counsel.

         (b) In case the Issuer shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon
such demand, the Indenture Trustee may, and shall at the direction of the
Insurer, institute a Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and
unpaid, and may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may
enforce the same against the Issuer or other obligor upon such Notes and collect
in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer or other obligor
upon such Notes, wherever situated, the moneys adjudged or decreed to be
payable.

         (c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture
Trustee may, with the consent of the Insurer, and shall at the written direction
of the Insurer or of the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the
Notes, with the consent of the Insurer, as more particularly provided in Section
5.4 below, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the
Noteholders and the Insurer, by such appropriate Proceedings as the Insurer
shall deem most effective to protect and enforce any such rights whether for the
specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of
the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy
or legal or equitable right vested in the Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or
by law.

         (d) In case there shall be pending, relative to the Issuer or any other
obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an ownership interest in
any Trust Estate, Proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code or any
other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law,
or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization,
liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or
taken possession of the Issuer or its property or such other obligor or Person,
or in case of any other comparable judicial Proceedings relative to the Issuer
or other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Issuer
or such other obligor, the Indenture Trustee, irrespective of whether the
principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by
declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Indenture Trustee shall
have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.3, shall be
entitled and empowered by intervention in such Proceedings with the consent of
or at the direction of the Insurer or otherwise:

                  (i) to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount
         of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and
         to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable
         in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any
         claim for reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee, each
         predecessor Indenture Trustee and its agents, attorneys and counsel,
         and for

                                      33

<PAGE>

reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities incurred, and all
advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture
Trustee (except as a result of negligence or bad faith), and of the
Noteholders and the Insurer allowed in such Proceedings;

                  (ii) unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to
         vote on behalf of the Holders of Notes and the Insurer in any election
         of a trustee, a standby trustee or Person performing similar functions
         in any such Proceedings;

                  (iii) to collect and receive any moneys or other property
         payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute all amounts
         received with respect to the claims of the Noteholders, the Indenture
         Trustee and the Insurer on their behalf; and

                  (iv) to file such proofs of claim and other papers or
         documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims
         of the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or the Holders of Notes allowed
         in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, its creditors and
         its property; and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other
         similar official in any such Proceeding is hereby authorized by each of
         such Noteholders to make payments to the Indenture Trustee and, in the
         event that the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the making of
         payments directly to such Noteholders, to pay to the Indenture Trustee
         such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to
         the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their
         respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and
         liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee
         and each predecessor Indenture Trustee except as a result of negligence
         or bad faith.

         (e) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture
Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of
any Noteholder or the Insurer any plan of reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder
thereof or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of
any Noteholder or the Insurer in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to
vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person.

         (f) All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture,
or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the
possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other
Proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or Proceedings instituted by
the Indenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express
trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses,
disbursements and compensation of the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor
Indenture Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the
ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes.

         (g) In any Proceedings brought by the Indenture Trustee (and also any
Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to
which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party), the Indenture Trustee shall be
held to represent all the Noteholders, and it shall not be necessary to make any
Noteholder a party to any such Proceedings.

         SECTION 5.4    REMEDIES; PRIORITIES.

         (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing of
which a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge, the
Indenture Trustee may with the consent of the Insurer, or, at the direction of
the Insurer, shall or, if an Insurer Default shall be continuing, at the
direction of a majority of the Holders of the Notes shall, do one or more of the
following (subject to Section 5.5 below):

                  (i) institute Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an
         express trust for the collection of all amounts then payable on the
         related Notes or under this Indenture with respect thereto, whether by
         declaration or otherwise, and all amounts payable under the Insurance
         Agreement, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Issuer
         and any other obligor upon such Notes moneys adjudged due;

                  (ii) institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete
         or partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the
         Collateral;

                  (iii) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the UCC
         and take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights
         and remedies of the Indenture Trustee or the related Noteholders or the
         Insurer; and

                  (iv) sell the Collateral or any portion thereof or rights or
         interest therein in a commercially reasonable manner, at one or more
         public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by
         law;

provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise
liquidate any Collateral following an Event of Default, unless (A) the
Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of the Insurer and the Holders of 100%
of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, (B) the proceeds of such sale or
liquidation distributable to the Noteholders are sufficient to discharge in
full all amounts then due and unpaid upon such Notes for principal and
interest and to reimburse the Insurer for any unreimbursed Insured Payments
and any other amounts due the Insurer under the Insurance Agreement or (C)
the Indenture Trustee determines that the Collateral in the aggregate will
not continue to provide sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and
interest on the Notes as they would have become due if the Notes had not been
declared due and payable, and the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of
the Insurer and the Holders of 66-2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of the
Notes. In determining such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to
clauses (B) and (C) above, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain
and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting
firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and
as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estates for such purpose.

         (b) If the Indenture Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to
this Article V, the Indenture Trustee, shall pay out the money or property in
the following order, appropriately allocated between each Group on the basis of
the Collateral securing each Group:

                  FIRST: to the Indenture Trustee for the Indenture Trustee Fee
         or Transition Expenses then due and any costs or expenses incurred by
         it in connection with the

                                       35

<PAGE>

         enforcement of the remedies provided for in this Article V and to the
         Owner Trustee for the Owner Trustee Fee then due, each with respect to
         each Group;

                  SECOND: any amounts payable to the Servicer pursuant to
         Section 5.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement (so long as not
         Insurer Default as defined in clause (i) of the definition thereof has
         occurred and is continuing) and any premium owing to the Insurer each
         with respect to each Group;

                  THIRD: to the Noteholders for amounts due and unpaid on the
         related Notes for each Group for interest PRO RATA, according to the
         amounts due and payable on such Notes;

                  FOURTH: to the Noteholders for each Group for amounts due and
         unpaid on the related Notes for principal, PRO RATA, among the Holders
         of such Notes according to the amounts due and payable until the Note
         Principal Balance of such Class of Notes is reduced to zero;

                  FIFTH: to the Insurer, (so long as no Insurer Default as
         defined in clause (i) of the definition thereof has occurred and is
         continuing) any other amounts owed to the Insurer under the Insurance
         Agreement with respect to each Group;

                  SIXTH: to the Noteholders an amount in respect of any
         Cross-Collateralization Payment to which a Group of Notes is entitled
         and to the applicable Cross-Collateralization Reserve Account, the
         amount of any Cross-Collateralization Reserve Deposit, and for the
         benefit of the other Loan Group, the amount of any
         Cross-Collateralization Payment, if applicable;

                  SEVENTH: to the Class A-3 Noteholders, any Interest Index
         Carryover; and

                  EIGHTH: to the Owner Trustee for any amounts to be distributed
         to the holder of the Ownership Interest.

         The Indenture Trustee may fix a record date and Distribution Date for
any payment to be made to the Noteholders pursuant to this Section 5.4. At least
15 days before such record date, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to each
Noteholder and the Issuer a notice that states the record date, the Distribution
Date and the amount to be paid.

         SECTION 5.5    OPTIONAL PRESERVATION OF THE COLLATERAL. If the Notes
have been declared to be due and payable under Section 5.2 above following an
Event of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been
rescinded and annulled, the Indenture Trustee may with the consent of the
Insurer, but need not (but shall at the written direction of the Insurer),
elect to maintain possession of the Collateral for all Groups. It is the
desire of the parties hereto and the Noteholders that there be at all times
sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes
(although the parties hereto understand that there exists the possibility of
a shortfall in collections of the Home Equity Loans), and the Indenture
Trustee shall take such desire into account when determining whether or not
to maintain possession of the Collateral for all Groups. In determining
whether to maintain possession of the Collateral for

                                       36

<PAGE>

the Groups, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an
opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national
reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the
sufficiency of such Collateral for such purpose.

         SECTION 5.6 LIMITATION OF SUITS. No Holder of any Note shall have any
right to institute any Proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this
Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other
remedy hereunder, unless the Insurer has otherwise consented in writing thereto
and:

         (a) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Indenture
Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

         (b) the Holders of not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the
Notes have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute such
Proceeding in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Indenture
Trustee hereunder;

         (c) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Indenture Trustee
reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred
in complying with such request;

         (d) the Indenture Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice,
request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute such Proceedings; and

         (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given
to the Indenture Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority
of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes.

         It is understood and intended that no Noteholders shall have any right
in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this
Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Noteholders or
to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or
to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided.

         SECTION 5.7    UNCONDITIONAL RIGHTS OF NOTEHOLDERS TO RECEIVE
PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this
Indenture, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and
unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any,
on such Note on or after the respective due date thereof expressed in such
Note or in this Indenture (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the
Redemption Date) to the extent funds are available therefor out of the
related Collateral and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such
payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such
Holder.

         SECTION 5.8    RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. If the Indenture
Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right
or remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason or has been determined adversely to the Indenture
Trustee or to such Noteholder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall, subject to any determination in
such Proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former
positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights

                                       37

<PAGE>

and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as
though no such Proceeding had been instituted.

         SECTION 5.9    RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No right or remedy
herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or to
the Noteholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and
every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative
and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or
employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent
the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or
remedy.

         SECTION 5.10   DELAY OR OMISSION NOT A WAIVER. No delay or omission
of the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or any Noteholder to exercise any right
or remedy accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such
right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Default or Event of
Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this
Article V or by law to the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or to the
Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed
expedient, by the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or by the Noteholders, as
the case may be.

         SECTION 5.11   CONTROL BY NOTEHOLDERS. The Insurer (so long as no
Insurer Default exists) or if an Insurer Default exists the Holders of a
majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes of a Group, if only one Class
is affected thereby, or not less than a majority of the sum of the
Outstanding Amounts of each Class of Notes affected thereby, with the consent
of the Insurer, shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee
with respect to the Notes or exercising any trust or power conferred on the
Indenture Trustee; provided that:

         (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or
with this Indenture;

         (b) subject to the express terms of Section 5.4 above, any direction to
the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Collateral shall be in writing by
the Insurer (so long as no Insurer Default exists) or the Holders of Notes
representing not less than 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes with the
consent of the Insurer;

         (c) if the conditions set forth in Section 5.5 above have been
satisfied and the Indenture Trustee elects to retain the Collateral for the
Groups pursuant to such Section 5.5, then any direction to the Indenture Trustee
by Holders of Notes representing less than 100% of the Outstanding Amounts of
the Notes, to sell or liquidate the Collateral shall be of no force and effect;
and

         (d) the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by
the Indenture Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction.

         Notwithstanding the rights of the Noteholders set forth in this Section
5.11, subject to Section 6.1 hereof, the Indenture Trustee need not take any
action that it determines might

                                      38

<PAGE>

involve it in liability or might materially adversely affect the rights of
any Noteholders not consenting to such action.

         SECTION 5.12   WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS. Prior to the declaration of
the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.2
above, the Insurer (so long as no Insurer Default exists) or the Holders of
Notes representing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the
Notes, with the consent of the Insurer (so long as no Insurer Default
exists), may waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences
except a Default (a) in the payment of principal of or interest on any of the
Notes or (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that cannot be
modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note. In the
case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Insurer, the Indenture Trustee and
the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and
rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

         Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist and be deemed
to have been cured and not to have occurred, and any Event of Default arising
therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, for every
purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

         SECTION 5.13   UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS. All parties to this Indenture
agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder's acceptance thereof shall
be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in
any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or
in any suit against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or
omitted by it as Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such
suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may
in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys'
fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the
merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant;
but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to (a) any suit instituted
by the Indenture Trustee, (b) any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group
of Noteholders, in each case holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the
Outstanding Amount of the Notes or (c) any suit instituted by any Noteholder
for the enforcement of the payment of principal of or interest on any Note on
or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note and in this
Indenture (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

         SECTION 5.14   WAIVER OF STAY OR EXTENSION LAWS. The Issuer
covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any
time insist upon, or plead or in any manner whatsoever, claim or take the
benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or
at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the
performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may
lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such
law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of
any power herein granted to the Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit
the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

         SECTION 5.15   ACTION ON NOTES. The Indenture Trustee's right to
seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be
affected by the seeking, obtaining or

                                      39

<PAGE>

application of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture.
Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the
Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any
judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any
execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Trust Estate or upon
any of the assets of the Issuer. Any money or property collected by the
Indenture Trustee shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.4(b) above.

         SECTION 5.16 PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT OF CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS.

         (a) Promptly following a request from the Insurer or the Indenture
Trustee, with the consent of the Insurer to do so, the Issuer shall take all
such lawful action as the Indenture Trustee or the Insurer, as applicable, may
request to compel or secure the performance and observance by the Seller and the
Servicer, as applicable, of each of their obligations to the Issuer under or in
connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and to exercise any and all
rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available to the Issuer under
or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement to the extent and in the
manner directed by the Indenture Trustee or the Insurer, as applicable,
including the transmission of notices of default on the part of the Seller or
the Servicer thereunder and the institution of legal or administrative actions
or proceedings to compel or secure performance by the Seller or the Servicer of
each of their obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

         (b) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Indenture Trustee, subject to the rights of the Insurer hereunder and under the
Sale and Servicing Agreement, may, and at the direction (which direction shall
be in writing or by telephone, confirmed in writing promptly thereafter) of the
Insurer or the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding Amount if there is an
Insurer Default shall, exercise all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and
claims of the Issuer against the Seller or the Servicer under or in connection
with the Sale and Servicing Agreement, including the right or power to take any
action to compel or secure performance or observance by the Seller, the
Servicer, as the case may be, of each of their obligations to the Issuer
thereunder and to give any consent, request, notice, direction, approval,
extension, or waiver under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and any right of
the Issuer to take such action shall be suspended.

                              THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

         SECTION 6.1 DUTIES OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE.

         (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Indenture Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this
Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a
prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
such person's own affairs.

         (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

                  (i) the Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform such duties
         and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture
         and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
         Indenture against the Indenture Trustee; and

                  (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Indenture
         Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and
         the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or
         opinions furnished to the Indenture Trustee and conforming to the
         requirements of this Indenture; however, the Indenture Trustee shall
         examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they
         conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

         (c) The Indenture Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its
own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful
misconduct, except that:

                  (i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b)
of this Section 6.1;

                  (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any
error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer unless it is
proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent
facts; and

                  (iii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable with respect
to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a
direction received by it pursuant to Section 5.11 above or any direction from
the Insurer that the Insurer is entitled to give under the terms of the
Transaction Documents.

         (d) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the
Indenture Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (g) of this Section
6.1.

         (e) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money
received by it except as the Indenture Trustee may agree in writing with the
Issuer.

         (f) Money held in trust by the Indenture Trustee shall be segregated
from other funds except to the extent permitted by law or the terms of this
Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

                                       41

<PAGE>

         (g) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee
to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its
rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment
of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not
reasonably assured to it; and none of the provisions contained in this Indenture
shall in any event require the Indenture Trustee to perform, or be responsible
for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of the Servicer or the
Issuer under this Indenture except during such time, if any, as the Indenture
Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers
and privileges of, the Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

         (h) The Indenture Trustee shall challenge or cause to be challenged any
attempt at substantive consolidation of the assets and liabilities of the Issuer
with those of any Owner (as the term "Owner" is defined in the Trust Agreement)
in connection with any insolvency proceeding of the Issuer.

         (i) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or
affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Indenture Trustee
shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 6.1 and to the provisions of
the TIA.

         (j) Subject to the other provisions of this Indenture and without
limiting the generality of this Section 6.1, the Indenture Trustee shall have no
duty (A) to see to any recording, filing, or depositing of this Indenture or any
agreement referred to herein or any financing statement or continuation
statement evidencing a security interest, or to see to the maintenance of any
such recording or filing or depositing or to any rerecording, refiling or
redepositing of any thereof, (B) to see to any insurance, (C) to see to the
payment or discharge of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge or any
lien or encumbrance of any kind owing with respect to, assessed or levied
against, any part of a Trust Estate other than from funds available in the
Distribution Account, (D) to confirm or verify the contents of any reports or
certificates of the Issuer, Insurer or Servicer delivered to the Indenture
Trustee pursuant to this Indenture believed by the Indenture Trustee to be
genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

         SECTION 6.2 RIGHTS OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE.

         (a) The Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully
protected in acting or refraining from acting on any resolution, certificate of
auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report,
notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper or document
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
person. The Indenture Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in
the document.

         (b) Before the Indenture Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may
require and shall be entitled to receive an Officer's Certificate or an Opinion
of Counsel. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or
omits to take in good faith in reliance on an Officer's Certificate or Opinion
of Counsel.

         (c) The Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers
hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through
agents or attorneys or a custodian or

                                       42

<PAGE>

nominee and the Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct
or negligence on the part of such agent, attorney, nominee or custodian
appointed by the Indenture Trustee with due care.

         (d) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes
or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its
rights or powers; provided, however, that such action or omission by the
Indenture Trustee does not constitute willful misconduct, negligence or bad
faith.

         (e) The Indenture Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or
opinion of counsel selected by it with due care with respect to legal matters
relating to this Indenture, the Notes and the Transaction Documents to which it
is a party, shall be full and complete authorization and protection from
liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in
good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

         (f) The Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any
of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Indenture or to institute, conduct
or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order
or direction of the Insurer or any of the Noteholders, pursuant to the
provisions of this Indenture, unless the Insurer or such Noteholders shall have
offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the
costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby;
nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Indenture Trustee of the
obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default of which a Responsible
Officer of the Indenture Trustee shall have actual knowledge (which has not been
cured), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Indenture, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a
prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
such person's own affairs.

         (g) The Indenture Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation
into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or
other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by the Insurer or
a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes; provided, however, that if
the payment within a reasonable time to the Indenture Trustee of the costs,
expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such
investigation is, in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee, not reasonably
assured to the Indenture Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of
this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against
such cost, expense or liability as a condition to taking any such action. The
reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by the Issuer or, if
paid by the Indenture Trustee, shall be repaid by the Issuer upon demand.

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

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

                                       43

<PAGE>

         (j) The Indenture Trustee shall have no liability in connection with
the malfeasance or nonfeasance by the Issuer, the Servicer, the Depositor, the
Custodian, the Trust or the Administrator (in the case of the Custodian or
Administrator, to the extent that the Indenture Trustee is not acting in the
capacity of Custodian or Administrator). The Indenture Trustee shall have no
liability in connection with compliance by the Issuer, the Servicer, the
Administrator, the Custodian or the Trust (in the case of the Custodian or
Administrator, to the extent that the Indenture Trustee is not acting in the
capacity of Custodian or Administrator) with statutory or regulatory
requirements related to the Collateral or any Trust Estate. The Indenture
Trustee shall not make or be deemed to have made any representations or
warranties with respect to the Collateral or any Trust Estate or the validity or
sufficiency of any assignment of the Collateral or any Trust Estate to the
Indenture Trustee.

         (k) In the event that the Indenture Trustee is also acting as Paying
Agent or Note Registrar hereunder, the rights, protection, immunities and
indemnities afforded to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Article VI shall
also be afforded to such Paying Agent or Note Registrar.

         SECTION 6.3 INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE. The Indenture
Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee
of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same
rights it would have if it were not Indenture Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Note
Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights.
However, the Indenture Trustee must comply with Sections 6.11 and 6.12 below.

         SECTION 6.4 INDENTURE TRUSTEE'S DISCLAIMER. The Indenture Trustee shall
not be (i) responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or
adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, (ii) shall not be accountable for the
Issuer's use of the proceeds from the Notes or (iii) responsible for any
statement of the Issuer in the Indenture or in any document issued in connection
with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Indenture Trustee's
certificate of authentication.

         SECTION 6.5 NOTICE OF DEFAULTS. If a Default occurs and is continuing
and if it is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee,
the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt notice thereof to the Insurer. The
Indenture Trustee shall not be charged with the knowledge of an Event of Default
unless a Responsible Officer has received written notice or has actual knowledge
thereof. The Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder, the Servicer and
the Seller notice of the Default within 30 days after it occurs at the expense
of the Issuer. Except in the case of a Default in payment of principal of or
interest on any Note, the Indenture Trustee may withhold the notice to the
Noteholders if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good
faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Noteholders.

         SECTION 6.6 REPORTS BY INDENTURE TRUSTEE TO HOLDERS. The Indenture
Trustee shall deliver to each Noteholder such information as may be required to
enable such holder to prepare its federal and state income tax returns. In
addition, upon Issuer Request, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly furnish such
information reasonably requested by the Issuer that is reasonably available to
the Indenture Trustee to enable the Issuer to perform its federal and state
income tax reporting obligations.

                                       44

<PAGE>

         SECTION 6.7 COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY. As compensation for its
services hereunder, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive, on each
Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee's Fee and Transition Expenses pursuant
to Section 5.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement (which compensation shall
not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust) and
shall be entitled to reimbursement in addition to Transition Expenses, for all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of
collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses
shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Indenture Trustee's agents, counsel, accountants and experts.
The Issuer agrees to cause the Servicer to indemnify the Indenture Trustee
against any and all loss, liability or expense (including attorneys' fees)
incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the
performance of its duties hereunder. Such indemnity shall not be an expense of
the Trust. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuer and the Servicer
promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indenture
Trustee to so notify the Issuer and the Servicer shall not relieve the Issuer of
its obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall or shall cause the Servicer to
defend any such claim, and the Indenture Trustee may have separate counsel and
the Issuer shall or shall cause the Servicer to pay the fees and expenses of
such counsel. Neither the Issuer nor the Servicer need to reimburse any expense
or to indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Indenture
Trustee through the Indenture Trustee's own willful misconduct, negligence or
bad faith. Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, in no
event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for special, indirect or
consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited
to lost profits), even if the Indenture Trustee has been advised of the
likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. This
indemnity shall survive the termination of this Indenture.

         The Issuer's payment obligations to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to
this Section 6.7 shall survive the discharge of this Indenture. When the
Indenture Trustee incurs expenses or provides services after the occurrence of a
Default specified in Section 5.1(e) or (f) hereof with respect to the Issuer,
the expenses and fees for such services are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable
federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

         SECTION 6.8 REPLACEMENT OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE. No resignation or removal
of the Indenture Trustee and no appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee
shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor
Indenture Trustee acceptable to the Insurer pursuant to this Section. The
Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer and the
Insurer. The Insurer or the Holders of a majority in Outstanding Amount of the
Notes (with the prior written consent of the Insurer) may remove the Indenture
Trustee by so notifying the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer (if given by such
Noteholders) and may appoint a successor Indenture Trustee acceptable to the
Insurer. The Issuer shall (with the prior written consent of the Insurer) remove
the Indenture Trustee if:

         (a)  the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11 below;

         (b)  the Indenture Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent;

                                       45

<PAGE>

         (c) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Indenture
Trustee or its property; or

         (d) the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

         If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists
in the office of Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in such
event being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the Issuer
shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee with the consent of the
Insurer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

         A successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee, the Insurer and to the Issuer.
Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall
become effective, and the successor Indenture Trustee shall have all the rights,
powers and duties of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. The successor
Indenture Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Noteholders. The
retiring Indenture Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as
Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee.

         If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within 60 days
after the retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring
Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of a majority in Outstanding Amount
of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

         If the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11 below, any
Noteholder may (with the consent of the Insurer) petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the removal of the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a
successor Indenture Trustee.

         Notwithstanding the replacement of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to
this Section 6.8, the Issuer's obligations under Section 6.7 above shall
continue for the benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee.

         SECTION 6.9 SUCCESSOR INDENTURE TRUSTEE BY MERGER. If the Indenture
Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or
substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation
or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation
without any further act shall be the successor Indenture Trustee; provided, that
such corporation or banking association shall be otherwise qualified and
eligible under Section 6.11 below.

         In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion
or consolidation to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by
this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered,
any such successor to the Indenture Trustee may adopt the certificate of
authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so
authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been
authenticated, any successor to the Indenture Trustee may authenticate such
Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the
successor to the Indenture Trustee; and in all such

                                       46

<PAGE>

cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the
Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Indenture
Trustee shall have.

         SECTION 6.10 APPOINTMENT OF CO-INDENTURE TRUSTEE OR SEPARATE INDENTURE
TRUSTEE.

         (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any
time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in
which any part of the Trust Estate may at the time be located, the Indenture
Trustee shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to
appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate
trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust, and to vest in
such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Noteholders
and the Insurer, such title to the Trust Estates, or any part hereof, and,
subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.10, such powers, duties,
obligations, rights and trusts as the Indenture Trustee may consider necessary
or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to
meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 6.11 below
and no notice to Noteholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate
trustee shall be required under Section 6.8 hereof.

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

                  (i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or
         imposed upon the Indenture Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon
         and exercised or performed by the Indenture Trustee and such separate
         trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate
         trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the
         Indenture Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under
         any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to
         be performed the Indenture Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified
         to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties
         and obligations (including the holding of title to each Trust Estate or
         any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and
         performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at
         the direction of the Indenture Trustee;

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

                  (iii) the Indenture Trustee may at any time accept the
         resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

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

                                       47

<PAGE>

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

         SECTION 6.11 ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION. The Indenture Trustee shall
at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA Section 310(a). The Indenture
Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set
forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Indenture
Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b), including the optional provision
permitted by the second sentence of TIA Section 310(b)(9); provided, however,
that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA Section 310(b)(1) any
indenture or indentures under which other securities of the Issuer are
outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA Section
310(b)(1) are met.

         SECTION 6.12 PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST ISSUER. The
Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor
relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). An Indenture Trustee who has resigned
or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated.

         SECTION 6.13 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Indenture Trustee
hereby represents and warrants that:

         (a) The Indenture Trustee is duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of State of Illinois, with power and authority to
own its properties and to conduct its business as such properties are currently
owned and such business is currently conducted.

         (b) The Indenture Trustee has the power and authority to execute and
deliver this Indenture and to carry out its terms; and the execution, delivery
and performance of this Indenture have been duly authorized by the Indenture
Trustee by all necessary corporate action.

         (c) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Indenture
and the fulfillment of the terms hereof do not conflict with, result in any
breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute (with or without
notice or lapse of time) a default under, the certificate of incorporation or
bylaws of the Indenture Trustee or any agreement or other instrument to which
the Indenture Trustee is a party or by which it is bound.

         (d) To the Indenture Trustee's best knowledge, the Indenture Trustee
does not have notice of any adverse claim (as such terms are used in Section
8-302 of the UCC in effect in the State of Delaware) with respect to the Home
Equity Loans.

         SECTION 6.14 DIRECTIONS TO INDENTURE TRUSTEE. The Indenture Trustee is
hereby directed:

                                       48

<PAGE>

         (a) to accept the pledge of the Home Equity Loans and hold the assets
of the Trust in trust for the Noteholders and the Insurer;

         (b) to authenticate and deliver the Notes substantially in the form
prescribed by Exhibit A in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and

         (c) to take all other actions as shall be required to be taken by the
terms of this Indenture.

Trustee (a) not more than five days after the earlier of (i) each Record Date
and (ii) three months after the last Record Date, a list, in such form as the
Indenture Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the
Noteholders as of such Record Date, (b) at such other times as the Indenture
Trustee and the Insurer may request in writing, within 30 days after receipt by
the Issuer of any such request, a list of similar form and content as of a date

however, that so long as the Indenture Trustee is the Note Registrar, no such

                  (i) to correct or amplify the description of any property at
         any time subject to the lien of this Indenture, or better to assure,
         convey and confirm unto the Indenture Trustee any property subject or
         required to be subjected to the lien of this Indenture, or to subject

                  (ii) to evidence the succession, in compliance with the

         interests of the Noteholders or the Insurer;

                  (vi) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of the
         appointment hereunder by a successor trustee with respect to the Notes
         and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as
         shall be necessary to facilitate the administration of the trusts
         hereunder by more than one trustee, pursuant to the requirements of
         Article VI herein; or

                  (vii) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this
         Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the
         qualification of this Indenture under the TIA or under any similar
         federal statute hereafter enacted and to add to this Indenture such
         other provisions as may be expressly required by the TIA.

<PAGE>

         (b) The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer
Order, may, also without the consent of any of the Noteholders but with prior
consent of the Rating Agencies and the Insurer, enter into an indenture or
indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture
or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders under this
Indenture; provided, however, that such action shall not, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel or satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, adversely
affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder or the Insurer
or cause the Issuer to be subject to entity level tax.

         SECTION 9.2  SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES WITH CONSENT OF NOTEHOLDERS. The
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, also may,
with prior consent of the Rating Agencies and the Insurer, and with the consent
of the Holders of not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the
Notes affected thereby or a majority of the sum of the Outstanding Amount of
Notes of each Class if all Notes are affected thereby, by Act of such Holders
delivered to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, enter into an indenture or
indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture
or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this
Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall,
without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected thereby:

         (a) change the date of payment of any installment of principal of or
interest on any Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof, the interest rate
thereon or the amount required to be paid on the Notes following the exercise
of the option set forth in Section 8.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement,
change the provisions of this Indenture relating to the application of
collections on, or the proceeds of the sale of, the related Trust Estate to
payment of principal of or interest on the Notes, or change any place of
payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or the interest
thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement
of the provisions of this Indenture requiring the application of funds
available therefor, as provided in Article V herein, to the payment of any such
amount due on the Notes on or after the respective due dates thereof (or, in
the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date);

         (b) reduce the percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, the
consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental

compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults
hereunder and their consequences provided for in this Indenture;

         (c) modify or alter the provisions of the proviso to the definition of

         (e) modify any provision of this Section except to increase any
percentage specified herein or to provide that certain additional provisions of
this Indenture or the Transaction

                                       55

<PAGE>

Documents cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of
each Outstanding Note affected thereby;

         (f) modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such manner as
to affect the calculation of the amount of any payment of interest or principal
due on any Note on any Distribution Date (including the calculation of any of
the individual components of such calculation); or

         (g) permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity
with the lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the related Trust
Estate or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated herein, terminate the
lien of this Indenture on any property at any time subject hereto or deprive
the Holder of any Note of the security provided by the lien of this Indenture
provided further, that such action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of
Counsel, cause the Issuer to be subject to an entity level tax.

         The Indenture Trustee may in its discretion determine whether or not
any Notes would be affected by any supplemental indenture and any such
determination shall be conclusive upon the Holders of all Notes, whether
theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Indenture
Trustee shall not be liable for any such determination made in good faith.

         In connection with requesting the consent of the Noteholders pursuant
to this Section 9.2, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the
Notes to which such amendment or supplemental indenture relates a notice
setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture at
the Issuer's expense. It shall not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders
under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed
supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve
the substance thereof.

         SECTION 9.3  EXECUTION OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES. In executing, or
permitting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture
permitted by this Article IX or the modification thereby of the trusts created
by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and
subject to Sections 6.1 and 6.2 herein, shall be fully protected in relying
upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental
indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and all conditions
precedent to the execution of such supplemental indenture have been met. The
Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such
supplemental indenture that affects the Indenture Trustee's own rights, duties,
liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

         SECTION 9.4  EFFECT OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE. Upon the execution of
any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions hereof, this Indenture
shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith with respect
to the Notes affected thereby, and the respective rights, limitations of
rights, obligations, duties, liabilities and immunities under this Indenture of
the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the Holders of the Notes shall thereafter
be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such
modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such
supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and
conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes.

         SECTION 9.5  CONFORMITY WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT. Every amendment of
this Indenture and every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this
Article IX shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then
in effect so long as this Indenture shall then be qualified under the Trust
Indenture Act.

         SECTION 9.6  REFERENCE IN NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES. Notes
authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture
pursuant to this Article IX may, and if required by the Indenture Trustee
shall, bear a notation in form approved by the Indenture Trustee as to any
matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in
the opinion of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, to any such supplemental
indenture may be prepared and executed by the Issuer and authenticated and
delivered by the Indenture Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         SECTION 11.1  COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATES AND OPINIONS, ETC.

         (a) Upon any application or request by the Issuer made to the
Indenture Trustee to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, the
Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee and to the Insurer (i) an
Officer's Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided
for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with,
(ii) an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such
conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with and (iii) (if required by
the TIA) an Independent Certificate from a firm of certified public accountants
meeting the applicable requirements of this Section 11.1, except that, in the
case of any such application or request as to which the furnishing of such
documents is specifically required by any provision of this Indenture, no
additional certificate or opinion need be furnished.

         Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a
condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:

         (1)     a statement that each signatory of such certificate or opinion
has read or has caused to be read such covenant or condition and the
definitions herein relating thereto;

         (2)     a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the
examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in
such certificate or opinion are based;

         (3)     a statement that, in the opinion of each such signatory, such
signatory has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable
such signatory to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such
covenant or condition has been complied with; and

         (4)     a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such
signatory, such condition or covenant has been complied with.

         (b) (i) Prior to the deposit of any Collateral or other property or
securities with the Indenture Trustee that is to be made the basis for the
release of any property or securities subject to the lien of this Indenture
(except in the case of the release of Home Equity Loans in accordance with the
Sale and Servicing Agreement), the Issuer shall, in addition to any obligation
imposed in Section 11.1(a) herein or elsewhere in this Indenture, furnish to
the Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the
opinion of each person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within 90
days of such deposit) to the Issuer of the Collateral or other property or
securities to be so deposited.

        (ii)     Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the Indenture
Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of any
signer thereof as to the matters described in clause (i) above, the Issuer
shall also deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Independent Certificate as to
the same matters, if the fair value to the Issuer of the Collateral, other
property or securities to be so deposited and of all other such Collateral,
other property or securities made the basis of

                                       59

<PAGE>

any such withdrawal or release since the commencement of the then-current
fiscal year of the Issuer, as set forth in the certificates delivered pursuant
to clause (i) above and this clause (ii), is 10% or more of the aggregate Note
Principal Balance of each of the Classes of Notes, but such a certificate need
not be furnished with respect to any securities so deposited, if the fair value
thereof to the Issuer as set forth in the related Officer's Certificate is less
than either (A) $25,000 or (B) one percent of the aggregate Note Principal
Balance of each of the Classes of Notes.

        (iii)    Whenever any property or securities are to be released from
the lien of this Indenture, the Issuer shall also furnish to the Indenture
Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each
person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within 90 days of such
release) of the property or securities proposed to be released and stating that
in the opinion of such person the proposed release will not impair the security
under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof.

        (iv)     Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the Indenture
Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of any
signer thereof as to the matters described in clause (iii) above, the Issuer
shall also furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Independent Certificate as to
the same matters if the fair value of the property or securities and of all
other property or securities released from the lien of this Indenture since the
commencement of the then-current calendar year, as set forth in the
certificates required by clause (iii) above and this clause (iv), equals 10% or
more of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of each of the Classes of Notes,
but such certificate need not be furnished in the case of any release of
property or securities if the fair value thereof as set forth in the related
Officer's Certificate is less than $25,000 or less than one percent of the then
aggregate Note Principal Balance of each of the Classes of Notes.

         SECTION 11.2  FORM OF DOCUMENTS DELIVERED TO INDENTURE TRUSTEE. In any
case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an
opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be
certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they
be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may
certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other
such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an
opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

         Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer may
be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion
of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the
exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or
representations with respect to the matters upon which such officer's
certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an
Authorized Officer or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to
factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an
officer or officers of the Servicer or the Issuer, stating that the information
with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Servicer or
the Issuer, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care
should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to
such matters are erroneous.

                                       60

<PAGE>

         Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more
applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other
instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and
form one instrument.

         Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or
certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer
shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application,
or as evidence of the Issuer's compliance with any term hereof, it is intended
that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or
at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the
facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions
precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the
sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be
construed to affect the Indenture Trustee's right to rely upon the truth and
accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided
in Article VI hereof.

         SECTION 11.3 ACTS OF NOTEHOLDERS.

         (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by
Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of
substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents
duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly provided
such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are
delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required,
to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein
and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the
Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any
such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient
for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.1 hereof) conclusive
in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided

instrument or writing may be proved in any manner that the Indenture Trustee
deems sufficient.

         (c) The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register.

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

         SECTION 11.4 NOTICES. Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or Act of Noteholders or other documents provided or
permitted by this Indenture shall be in writing and if such request, demand,

<PAGE>

         (a) the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuer shall be
sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in
writing to or with the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, or

         (b) the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder shall be
sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed first-class,
postage prepaid to the Issuer addressed to: Champion Home Equity Loan Trust
2000-__, in care of _________________________________, with copies to the
Administrator addressed to: __________________________________,
___________________________________________________________________ and to the
Servicer addressed to:
___________________________________________________________, or at any other
address previously furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the Issuer
or the Administrator. The Issuer shall promptly transmit any notice received by
it from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee.

         (c) the Insurer, by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or by any
Noteholders shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder to in writing and
mailed, first-class postage pre-paid, or personally delivered or telecopied to:
___________________________________________. The Insurer shall promptly transmit
any notice received by it from the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the
Noteholders to the Issuer or Indenture Trustee, as the case may be.

         Notices required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Indenture
Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be in writing, personally delivered or mailed
by certified mail, return receipt requested, to (i) in the case of Moody's, at
the following address: Moody's Investors Service, Inc., 99 Church Street, 4th
Floor, New York, New York 10007 and (ii) in the case of Standard & Poor's, at
the following address: Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, a division of The
McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 55 Water Street (41st Floor), New York, New York
10004; or as to each of the foregoing, at such other address as shall be
designated by written notice to the other parties.

         SECTION 11.5 NOTICES TO NOTEHOLDERS; WAIVER. Where this Indenture
provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be
sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing
and mailed, first-class, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such
event, at his address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the
latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving
of such notice. In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail,
neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed
to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with
respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein
provided shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given.

                  Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such
notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice,
either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of
such notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture
Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of
any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver.

                                       62

<PAGE>

                  In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service
as a result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be
impractical to mail notice of any event to Noteholders when such notice is
required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any
manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee
shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

                  Where this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating
Agencies, failure to give such notice shall not affect any other rights or
obligations created hereunder.

         SECTION 11.6 RIGHTS OF THE INSURER TO EXERCISE RIGHTS OF NOTEHOLDERS.

         By accepting its Note, each Noteholder agrees that unless an Insurer
Default exists, the Insurer shall have the right to exercise all rights of the
Noteholders as specified under this Agreement without any further consent of the
Noteholders. Any right conferred to the Insurer hereunder shall be suspended and
shall run to the benefit of the Noteholders during any period in which there
exists an Insurer Default, provided, however, that during an Insurer Default,
the consent of the Insurer must be obtained with respect to any amendments that
may materially adversely affect the Insurer.

         SECTION 11.7 CONFLICT WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT. If any provision hereof
limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is required to
be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture
Act, such required provision shall control.

         The provisions of TIA Sections 310 through 317 that impose duties on
any person (including the provisions automatically deemed included herein unless
expressly excluded by this Indenture) are a part of and govern this Indenture,
whether or not physically contained herein.

         SECTION 11.8 EFFECT OF HEADINGS AND TABLE OF CONTENTS. The Article and
Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and
shall not affect the construction hereof.

         SECTION 11.9 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. All covenants and agreements in
this Indenture and the Notes by the Issuer shall bind its successors and
assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Indenture Trustee in
this Indenture shall bind its successors, co-trustees and agents.

         SECTION 11.10 SEPARABILITY. In case any provision in this Indenture or
in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality,
and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected
or impaired thereby.

         SECTION 11.11 BENEFITS OF INDENTURE. Nothing in this Indenture or in
the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties
hereto and their successors hereunder, and the Noteholders, the Insurer, and any
other party secured hereunder, and any other Person with an ownership interest
in any part of the Trust Estate, any benefit or any legal or equitable right,
remedy or claim under this Indenture.

                                       63

<PAGE>

         SECTION 11.12 LEGAL HOLIDAYS. In any case where the date on which any
payment is due shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other
provision of the Notes or this Indenture) payment need not be made on such date,
but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and
effect as if made on the date on which nominally due, and no interest shall
accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date.

         SECTION 11.13 GOVERNING LAW. THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS
CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE
PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

         SECTION 11.14 COUNTERPARTS. This Indenture may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an
original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the
same instrument.

         SECTION 11.15 RECORDING OF INDENTURE. If this Indenture is subject to
recording in any appropriate public recording offices, such recording is to be
effected by the Issuer and at its expense accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel
(which may be counsel to the Indenture Trustee or any other counsel reasonably
acceptable to the Indenture Trustee) to the effect that such recording is
necessary either for the protection of the Noteholders or any other Person
secured hereunder or for the enforcement of any right or remedy granted to the
Indenture Trustee under this Indenture.

         SECTION 11.16 TRUST OBLIGATION. No recourse may be taken, directly
or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner
Trustee or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under this Indenture or any
certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith,
against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual
capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer or (iii) any
partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director, employee or agent of
the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, any
holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the
Indenture Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or
the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, except as any such Person may
have expressly agreed (it being understood that the Indenture Trustee and the
Owner Trustee have no such obligations in their individual capacity) and
except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to
the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for
stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to pay any installment or call
owing to such entity. For all purposes of this Indenture, in the performance
of any duties or obligations of the Issuer hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall
be subject to, and entitled to the benefits of, the terms and provisions of
Articles VII, VIII and IX of the Trust Agreement.

         SECTION 11.17 NO PETITION. The Indenture Trustee, by entering into this
Indenture, and each Noteholder, by accepting a Note, hereby covenant and agree
that they will not at any time institute against the Transferor (and any
wholly-owned subsidiary thereof), the Depositor, the Servicer or the Issuer, or
join in any institution against the Transferor (and any wholly-owned subsidiary
thereof), the Depositor, the SERVICER or the Issuer of, any bankruptcy,
reorganization,

                                       64

arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings
under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law in
connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, this Indenture or any
of the Transaction Documents.

         SECTION 11.18 INSPECTION. The Issuer agrees that, on reasonable prior
notice, it will permit any representative of the Indenture Trustee or the
Insurer, during the Issuer's normal business hours, to examine all the books of
account, records, reports and other papers of the Issuer, to make copies and
extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be audited by Independent certified
public accountants, and to discuss the Issuer's affairs, finances and accounts
with the Issuer's officers, employees, and Independent certified public
accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as may be reasonably
requested. The Indenture Trustee and the Insurer (to the extent described in the
Insurance Agreement) shall and shall cause its 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 may reasonably
determine that such disclosure is consistent with its obligations hereunder.

         SECTION 11.19 INCONSISTENCIES WITH THE SALE AND SERVICING AGREEMENT. In
the event certain provisions of this Agreement conflict with the provisions of
the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the parties hereto agree that the provisions
of the Sale and Servicing Agreement shall be controlling.

         SECTION 11.20 THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Indenture will inure to
the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, the Noteholders, the Note
Owners, the Insurer and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
Except as otherwise provided in this Indenture, no other person will have any
right or obligation hereunder.

                                       65

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee have caused

this Agreement and the other Operative Documents to which it is a party.

contract, agreement or other instrument to which the Depositor is a party or by
which the Depositor is bound or violate any statute or any order, rule or
regulation of any court, governmental agency or body or other tribunal having

obligation of the Depositor, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms
hereof and thereof, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar
laws affecting creditors' rights generally and by general principles of equity
(whether considered in a proceeding or action in equity or at law).

         (d) The Depositor is not in 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 could materially and adversely affect the
condition (financial or other) or operations of the Depositor or its properties
or the consequences of which could materially and adversely affect its
performance hereunder and under the other Operative Documents to which the
Depositor is a party.

                                       36
<PAGE>

         (e) No litigation, proceeding or investigation is pending with respect
to which the Depositor has received service of process or, to the best of the
Depositor's knowledge, threatened against the Depositor which litigation,
proceeding or investigation might have consequences that would prohibit its
entering into this Agreement or any other Operative Documents to which it is a
party or that would materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or
otherwise) or operations of the Depositor or its properties or might have
consequences that would materially and adversely affect the validity or
enforceability of the Home Equity Loans or the Depositor's performance hereunder
and under the other Operative Documents to which the Depositor is a party.

         (f) The statements contained in the Registration Statement which
describe the Depositor or matters or activities for which the Depositor is
responsible in accordance with the Operative Documents or which are attributed
to the Depositor therein are true and correct in all material respects, and the
Registration Statement does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact
with respect to the Depositor or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements contained therein
with respect to the Depositor not misleading.

         (g) Immediately prior to the sale and assignment by the Depositor to
the Trustee on behalf of the Trust of each Home Equity Loan, the Depositor had
good and equitable title to each Home Equity Loan (insofar as such title was
conveyed to it by the Sellers) subject to no prior lien, claim, participation
interest, mortgage, security interest, pledge, charge or other encumbrance or
other interest of any nature.

         (h) As of the Startup Day, the Depositor has transferred all right,
title and interest in the Home Equity Loans to the Trustee on behalf of the
Trust.

         (i) The Depositor has not transferred the Home Equity Loans to the
Trustee on behalf of the Trust with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any
of its creditors.

         (j) All actions, approvals, consents, waivers, exemptions, variances,
franchises, orders, permits, authorizations, rights and licenses required to be
taken, given or obtained, as the case may be, by or from any federal, state or
other governmental authority or agency (other than any such actions, approvals,
etc. under any state securities laws, real estate syndication or "Blue Sky"
statutes, as to which the Depositor makes no such representation or warranty),
that are necessary or advisable in connection with the purchase and sale of the
Certificates and the execution and delivery by the Depositor of the Operative
Documents to which it is a party, have been duly taken, given or obtained, as
the case may be, are in full force and effect on the date hereof, are not
subject to any pending proceedings or appeals (administrative, judicial or
otherwise) and either the time within which any appeal therefrom may be taken or
review thereof may be obtained has expired or no review thereof may be obtained
or appeal therefrom taken, and are adequate to authorize the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Operative Documents on
the part of the Depositor and the performance by the Depositor of its
obligations under this Agreement and such of the other Operative Documents to
which it is a party.

         Section 3.04. COVENANTS OF SELLER TO TAKE CERTAIN ACTIONS WITH
RESPECT TO THE HOME EQUITY LOANS IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS.

         (a) Upon the discovery by the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, the
Certificate Insurer, any Sub-Servicer, any Owner, the Custodian or the Trustee
that the representations and warranties set forth in clause (b) below were
untrue in any material respect, without regard to any limitation set forth
therein concerning the knowledge of the Seller, or the Servicer as to the facts
stated therein as of the Startup Day (or in the case of a Qualified Replacement
Mortgage, as of the respective replacement date) with the result that the
interests of the Owners or of the Certificate Insurer in the related Home Equity
Loan are, or may be, materially and adversely affected, the party discovering
such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties. Upon the
earliest to occur of CHEC's discovery, its receipt of notice of breach from any
one of the other parties or such time as a situation resulting from an existing
statement which is untrue materially and adversely affects the interests of the
Owners or of the Certificate Insurer, without regard to any limitation set forth
therein concerning the knowledge of CHEC as to the facts stated therein, CHEC
hereby covenants and warrants that it shall promptly cure such breach in all
material respects or that it shall on or before the second Monthly Remittance
Date next succeeding such discovery, receipt of notice or such time (i)
substitute in lieu of each Home Equity Loan which has given rise to the
requirement for action by CHEC a Qualified Replacement Mortgage and deliver the
Substitution Amount to the Servicer for deposit in the Principal and Interest
Account or (ii) purchase such Home Equity Loan from the Trust at a purchase
price equal to the Loan Purchase Price thereof, which purchase price shall be
delivered to the Servicer for deposit in the Principal and Interest Account;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if CHEC can establish to the reasonable satisfaction of
the Certificate Insurer that it is diligently pursuing remedial action, the
period of time in which CHEC must substitute a Qualified Replacement Mortgage or
purchase such Home Equity Loan may be extended with the written approval of the
Certificate Insurer. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of CHEC so
to substitute or purchase any Home Equity Loan as to which such a statement set
forth below is untrue in any material respect and has not been remedied shall
constitute the sole remedy respecting a discovery of any such statement which is
untrue in any material respect in this Section 3.04 available to the Owners and
the Trustee on behalf of the Owners. Notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, with respect to any Home Equity Loan which is not in
default or as to which no default is imminent, no repurchase or substitution
pursuant to Section 3.04 or 3.06 shall be made unless CHEC obtains for the
Trustee and the Certificate Insurer at its expense an Opinion of Counsel
experienced in federal income tax matters to the effect that such a repurchase
or substitution would not constitute a Prohibited Transaction for the Trust or
either REMIC created hereunder or otherwise subject the Trust or either REMIC
created hereunder to tax and would not jeopardize the status of either REMIC
created hereunder as a

                                       43
<PAGE>

REMIC (a "REMIC Opinion") addressed to the Trustee and the Certificate
Insurer and acceptable to the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee. CHEC shall
also deliver an Officer's Certificate to the Trustee and the Certificate
Insurer concurrently with the delivery of a Qualified Replacement Mortgage
pursuant to Sections 3.04 and 3.06(b) stating that such Home Equity Loan
meets the requirements of the definition of a Qualified Replacement Mortgage
and that all other conditions to the substitution thereof have been
satisfied. Any Home Equity Loan as to which repurchase or substitution was
delayed pursuant to this Section shall be repurchased or substituted for
(subject to compliance with Section 3.04 or 3.06(b), as the case may be) upon
the earlier of (a) the occurrence of a default or imminent default with
respect to such Home Equity Loan and (b) receipt by the Trustee and the
Certificate Insurer of a REMIC Opinion.

         (b) The Seller, with respect to the Home Equity Loans, and the
Servicer, in consideration of its appointment hereunder, with respect to the
Home Equity Loans taken as a whole or by Group, hereby represents, warrants and
covenants to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Servicer, the Certificate Insurer
and the Owners that as of the Startup Day:

                  (i) The information with respect to each Home Equity Loan set
         forth in the related Schedule of Home Equity Loans is true and correct
         in all material respects as of the Cut-Off Date;

         the Trust by the Trustee (including the related Note), the Trust will
         have good and marketable title to such Home Equity Loan (including the
         related Note) and such items of the Trust Estate, free and clear of any
         lien, charge, mortgage, encumbrance or rights of others, except as set
         forth in Section 3.04(b)(ix) and except for liens that will be
         simultaneously released. All the original or certified documentation
         set forth in Section 3.05 (including all material documents related
         thereto) with respect to each Home Equity Loan has been delivered to
         the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee on the Startup Day or as
         otherwise provided in Section 3.05. To the Seller's or the Servicer's
         best knowledge, no documentation contains any untrue statement of a
         material fact or omits to state a fact necessary to make the statements
         contained therein not misleading;

                  (iii) Each Home Equity Loan being transferred to the Trust is
         a Qualified Mortgage and is a Mortgage;

         bears a current Coupon Rate of at least ___% per annum and the Note
         related to each Home Equity Loan in Group II bears a current Coupon

                  (viii) Each Note with respect to the Home Equity Loans will
         provide for a schedule of substantially level and equal Monthly
         Payments (or periodic rate adjustments in the case of the Home Equity
         Loans in Group II), which are sufficient to amortize fully the
         principal balance of such Note on or before its maturity date, except
         for ______ Home Equity Loans, representing approximately ___% of the
         aggregate Loan Balance of the Home Equity Loans in Group I, which may
         provide for a "balloon" payment due at the end of the 15th year, and
         no Home Equity Loan is a graduated payment loan;

                  (ix) As of the Startup Day, each Mortgage is a valid and
         enforceable first or second lien of record (or is in the process of

         Mortgage Loan only to a Senior Lien on such Property and subject in all
         cases to the exceptions to title set forth in the title insurance
         policy or attorney's opinion of title, with respect to the related Home
         Equity Loan, which exceptions are generally acceptable to banking
         institutions in connection with their regular mortgage lending
         activities, and such other exceptions to which similar properties are
         commonly subject and which do not individually, or in the aggregate,
         materially and adversely affect the benefits of the security intended
         to be provided by such Mortgage;

         conveyed by the Seller subject to no liens, charges, mortgages,
         encumbrances or rights of others except as set forth in clause (ix) or
         other liens which will be released simultaneously with such transfer
         and assignment; and immediately upon the transfer and assignment herein
         contemplated, the Trustee will hold good and indefeasible title to, and
         be the sole owner of, each Home Equity Loan subject to no liens,
         charges, mortgages, encumbrances or rights of others except as set
         forth in paragraph (ix) or other liens which will be released
         simultaneously with such transfer and assignment;

                  (xi) As of the Cut-Off Date, approximately ____% of the

         Delinquent (and none are more than ___ days Delinquent);

         Servicer, as applicable, there is no mechanics' lien or claim for work,
         labor or material affecting any Property which is or may be a lien
         prior to, or equal with, the lien of the related Mortgage except those
         which are insured against by any title insurance policy referred to in
         paragraph (xvi) below;

                  (xv) Each Home Equity Loan at the time it was made complied in
         all material respects with applicable state and federal laws and
         regulations, including, without limitation, the federal
         Truth-in-Lending Act (as amended by the Riegle Community Development

         original balance of such Home Equity Loan together, in the case of a
         Second Mortgage Loan, with the then-original principal amount of the
         mortgage note relating to the Senior Lien, insuring the mortgagee's
         interest under the related Home Equity Loan as the holder of a valid
         first or second mortgage lien of record on the real Property described
         in the related Mortgage, as the case may be, subject only to exceptions
         of the character referred to in paragraph (ix) above, was effective on
         the date of the origination of such Home Equity Loan, and, as of the

         valid and existing hazard insurance policy with a carrier generally
         acceptable to the Servicer that provides for fire and extended coverage
         representing coverage not less than the least of (A) the outstanding

         insurance policy in a form meeting the requirements of the current
         guidelines of the Flood Insurance Administration is in effect with
         respect to such Property with a carrier generally acceptable to the
         Servicer in an amount representing coverage not less than the least
         of (A) the outstanding principal balance of the related Home Equity
         Loan (together, in the case of a Second Mortgage Loan, with the
         outstanding principal balance of the Senior Lien), (B) the minimum
         amount required to compensate for damage or loss on a replacement cost
         basis or (C) the maximum amount of insurance that is available under

         obligation of the maker thereof and are enforceable in accordance with
         their terms, except only as such enforcement may be limited by
         bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar

         been delivered to the Trustee. The substance of any such waiver,
         alteration or modification is reflected on the related Schedule of Home
         Equity Loans;

                  (xxiv) The proceeds of each Home Equity Loan have been fully

<PAGE>

         Any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or off-site
         improvements and as to disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have

         closing or recording such Home Equity Loans were paid and the Mortgagor

         related Note or Mortgage;

                  (xxv) The related Note is not and has not been secured by any
         collateral, pledged account or other security except the lien of the
         corresponding Mortgage;

                  (xxvi) No Home Equity Loan has a shared appreciation feature,

         more parcels of real property with a residential dwelling erected

                  (xxviii) Each Mortgage contains a provision for the
         acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the
         related Home Equity Loan in the event the related Property is sold

                  (xxix) Any advances made after the date of origination of a
         Home Equity Loan but prior to the Cut-Off Date have been consolidated
         with the outstanding principal amount secured by the related Mortgage,
         and the secured principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single
         interest rate and single repayment term reflected on the respective
         Schedule of Home Equity Loans. The consolidated principal amount does
         not exceed the original principal amount of the related Home Equity
         Loan. No Note permits or obligates the Servicer to make future advances
         to the related Mortgagor at the option of the Mortgagor;

                  (xxx) To the best of the knowledge of the Seller there is no

         movement or other casualty;

                  (xxxi) All of the improvements which were included for the

         within the boundaries and building restriction lines of such Property,
         and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon such
         Property, and are stated in the title insurance policy and
         affirmatively insured;

                  (xxxii) To the best of the knowledge of the Seller or the
         Servicer, as applicable, no improvement located on or being part of any
         Property is in violation of any applicable zoning law or regulation.
         All inspections, licenses and certificates required to be made or
         issued with respect to all occupied portions of each Property and, with
         respect to the use and occupancy of the same, including but not limited
         to certificates of occupancy and fire

                                       48

         underwriting certificates, have been made or obtained from the
         appropriate authorities and such Property is lawfully occupied under
         the applicable law;

                  (xxxiii) With respect to each Mortgage constituting a deed of
         trust, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such,
         has been properly designated and currently so serves and is named in
         such Mortgage, and no fees or expenses are or will become payable by
         the Owners or the Trust to the trustee under the deed of trust, except
         in connection with a trustee's sale after default by the related
         Mortgagor;

                  (xxxiv) Each Mortgage contains customary and enforceable
         provisions which render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof
         adequate for the realization against the related Property of the
         benefits of the security, including (A) in the case of a Mortgage
         designated as a deed of trust, by trustee's sale and (B) otherwise by
         judicial foreclosure. There is no homestead or other exemption other

items as of the date such Qualified Replacement Mortgage is conveyed to the

relieve the Seller of its repurchase obligation under this Section and Section

         (e) The Trustee shall have no duty to conduct any affirmative
investigation other than as specifically set forth in this Agreement as to the

         In the event that any such conveyance is deemed to be a loan, the
parties intend that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted to the Depositor

security agreement under applicable law.

         (b) In connection with the transfer and assignment of the Home Equity
Loans, CHEC agrees to:

                  (i) deliver without recourse to the Custodian, on behalf of

         recorded Mortgage has been lost and (F) the original assignments of

         _____________, 20___" to be submitted for recording in the appropriate
         jurisdictions; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that CHEC shall not be required to
         record an assignment of a Mortgage if the Seller furnishes to the
         Trustee and the Certificate Insurer, on or before the Startup Day, at
         CHEC's expense, an Opinion of Counsel with respect to the relevant
         jurisdiction that such recording is not necessary to PERFECT the
         Trustee's interest in the related Home Equity Loans (in form and
         substance satisfactory to the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer and the
         Rating Agencies); PROVIDED FURTHER, HOWEVER, notwithstanding the
         delivery of any legal opinions, each assignment of Mortgage shall be

         CHEC upon the earliest to occur of: (i) reasonable direction by the

         (iv) the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating
         to the Seller;

                                       53

         the original Mortgages and such recorded assignments, together with
         originals or duly certified copies of any and all prior assignments
         (other than unrecorded warehouse assignments), to the Custodian, on
         behalf of the Trustee, within 15 days of receipt thereof by CHEC, but
         in any event, with respect to any Mortgage as to which original
         recording information has been made available to the Seller, within one
         year after the Startup Day; and

                  (iv) furnish to the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer and the
         Rating Agencies at CHEC's expense, an Opinion of Counsel with respect
         to the sale and perfection of the Home Equity Loans delivered to the
         Trust in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate Insurer.

         In instances where the original recorded Mortgage cannot be delivered
by CHEC to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee prior to or concurrently with
the execution and delivery of this Agreement due to a delay in connection with
recording, CHEC may in lieu of delivering such original recorded Mortgage,
deliver to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee a copy thereof, provided that
CHEC certifies that the original Mortgage has been delivered to a title
insurance company for recordation after receipt of its policy of title insurance
or binder therefor. In all such instances, the Seller will deliver or cause to
be delivered the original recorded Mortgage to the Custodian on behalf of the
Trustee promptly upon receipt of the original recorded Mortgage but in no event
later than one year after the Startup Day.

         CHEC hereby confirms to the Trustee that it has made the appropriate
entries in its general accounting records, to indicate that such Home Equity
Loans have been transferred to the Trustee and constitute part of the Trust in
accordance with the terms of the trust created hereunder.

         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
3.05, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original
Mortgage, the assignment of a Mortgage or the intervening assignments of the
Mortgage after it has been recorded, the Depositor and the Seller shall be
deemed to have satisfied its obligations hereunder upon delivery to the
Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee of a copy of such Mortgage, such assignment
or assignments of Mortgage certified by the public recording office to be a true
copy of the recorded original thereof.

         Not later than ten days following the end of the 60-day period referred
in clause (b)(ii) above, CHEC shall deliver to the Custodian with a copy to the
Trustee, on behalf of the Trustee, a list of all Mortgages for which no Mortgage
assignment has yet been submitted for recording by CHEC, which list shall state
the reason why CHEC has not yet submitted such Mortgage assignments for
recording. With respect to any Mortgage assignment disclosed on such list as not
yet submitted for recording for a reason other than a lack of original recording
information, the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall make an immediate
demand on CHEC to prepare such Mortgage assignments, and shall inform the
Certificate Insurer, in writing, of its failure to prepare such Mortgage
assignments. Thereafter, the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall
cooperate in executing any documents prepared by the Certificate Insurer and
submitted to the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee in connection with this
provision. Following the expiration

prepare a Mortgage assignment for any Mortgage for which original recording
information is subsequently received by CHEC, and shall promptly deliver a
copy of such Mortgage assignment to the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee.
CHEC agrees that it will follow its normal servicing procedures and attempt
to obtain the original recording information necessary to complete a Mortgage
assignment. In the event that CHEC is unable to obtain such recording
information with respect to any Mortgage prior to the end of the 18th
calendar month following the Startup Day and has not provided to the
Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee a Mortgage assignment with evidence of
recording thereon relating to the assignment of such Mortgage to the Trustee,
the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee shall notify CHEC of its obligation
to provide a completed assignment (with evidence of recording thereon) on or
before the end of the 20th calendar month following the Startup Day. A copy
of such notice shall be sent by the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee to
the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee. If no such completed assignment
(with evidence of recording thereon) is provided before the end of such 20th
calendar month, the related Home Equity Loan shall be deemed to have breached
the representation contained in clause (xxii) of Section 3.04(b) hereof;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if as of the end of such 20th calendar month CHEC
demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Certificate Insurer that it is
exercising its best efforts to obtain such completed assignment and, during
each month thereafter until such completed assignment is delivered to the
Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, CHEC continues to demonstrate to the
satisfaction of the Certificate Insurer that it is exercising its best
efforts to obtain such completed assignment, the related Home Equity Loan
will not be deemed to have breached such representation. The requirement to
deliver a completed assignment with evidence of recording thereon will be
deemed satisfied upon delivery of a copy of the completed assignment
certified by the applicable public recording office.

         Copies of all Mortgage assignments received by the Custodian on behalf
of the Trustee shall be retained in the related File.

         All recording required pursuant to this Section 3.05 shall be
accomplished at the expense of the Seller.

or after the Cut-Off Date and prior to the Startup Day, the Seller, in lieu of
the foregoing, will deliver within six (6) days after the Startup Day to the
Trustee a certification of an Authorized Officer in the form set forth in
Exhibit D.

         (d) CHEC shall transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey without
recourse, to the Trustee all right, title and interest of CHEC in and to any

Trustee on behalf of the Trust by the Seller pursuant to Section 3.04 or 3.06

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trust shall reserve and or and retain all right,

released Home Equity Loan prior to such repurchase or the applicable Replacement
Cut-Off Date, as the case may be.

Mortgage) and (iv) deliver the title insurance policy, or where no such policy
is required to be provided under Section 3.05(b)(i)(B), the other evidence of

after the Startup Day, within 45 days of receipt and with respect to any
Qualified Replacement Mortgage, within 45 days after the assignment thereof)
and to deliver to the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, the Trustee and
the Certificate Insurer a certification in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit F (a "Pool Certification") to the effect that, as to each Home Equity
Loan listed in the Schedule of Home Equity Loans (other than any Home Equity
Loan paid in full or any Home Equity Loan specifically identified in such
Pool Certification as not covered by such Pool Certification), (i) all
documents required to be delivered to it pursuant to Section 3.05(b)(i) of
this Agreement have been executed and are in its possession and that the
Notes have been endorsed as set forth in Section 3.05(b)(i) hereof, (ii) such
documents have been reviewed by it and have not been mutilated, damaged or
torn and relate to such Home Equity Loan and (iii) based on its examination
and only as to the foregoing documents, the information set forth on the
Schedule of Home Equity Loans accurately reflects the information set forth
in the File. The Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall have no
responsibility for reviewing any File except as expressly provided in this
subsection 3.06(a). Without limiting the effect of the preceding sentence, in
reviewing any File, the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall have no
responsibility for determining whether any document is valid and binding,
whether the text of any assignment is in proper form (except to determine if
the Trustee is the assignee), whether any document has been recorded in
accordance with the requirements of any applicable jurisdiction or whether a
blanket assignment is permitted in any applicable jurisdiction, but shall
only be required to determine whether a document has been executed, that it
appears to be what it purports to be, and, where applicable, that it purports
to be recorded. The Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall be under no
duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine any such documents,
instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that they are genuine,
enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they are
other than what they purport to be on their face, nor shall the Custodian, on
behalf of the Trustee, be under any duty to determine independently whether
there are any intervening assignments or assumption or modification
agreements with respect to any Home Equity Loan.

         (b) If the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee during such 45-day
period finds any document constituting a part of a File which is not executed,
has not been received, or is unrelated to the Home Equity Loans identified in
the Schedule of Home Equity Loans, or that any Home Equity Loan does not conform
to the description thereof as set forth in the Schedule of Home Equity Loans,
the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee shall promptly so notify the Depositor,
CHEC, the Owners and the Certificate Insurer. In performing any such review, the
Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee may conclusively rely on CHEC as to the
purported genuineness of any such document and any signature thereon. It is
understood that the scope of the review of the items delivered by the Seller
pursuant to Section 3.05(b)(i) is limited solely to confirming that the
documents listed in Section 3.05(b)(i) have been executed and received, relate
to the Files identified in the Schedule of Home Equity Loans and conform to the
description thereof in the Schedule of Home Equity Loans. CHEC agrees to use
reasonable efforts to remedy a material defect in a document constituting part
of a File of which it is so notified by the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee.
If, however, within 90 days after such notice to it respecting such defect CHEC
has not remedied the defect and the defect materially and

                                      57
<PAGE>

adversely affects the interest in the related Home Equity Loan of the Owners
or the Certificate Insurer, CHEC will (or will cause an affiliate to) on the
next succeeding Monthly Remittance Date (i) substitute in lieu of such Home
Equity Loan a Qualified Replacement Mortgage and deliver the Substitution
Amount to the Servicer for deposit in the Principal and Interest Account or
(ii) purchase such Home Equity Loan at a purchase price equal to the Loan
Purchase Price thereof, which purchase price shall be delivered to the
Servicer for deposit in the Principal and Interest Account. In connection
with any proposed purchase or substitution of a Home Equity Loan, CHEC shall
cause at it's expense to be delivered to the Trustee and to the Certificate
Insurer an Opinion of Counsel experienced in federal income tax matters
stating whether or not such a proposed purchase or substitution would
constitute a Prohibited Transaction for the Trust or would jeopardize the
status of either REMIC I or REMIC II as a REMIC, and CHEC shall only be
required to take either such action to the extent such action would not
constitute a Prohibited Transaction for the Trust or would not jeopardize the
status of either REMIC I or REMIC II as a REMIC. Any required purchase or
substitution, if delayed by the absence of such opinion, shall nonetheless
occur upon the earlier of (i) the occurrence of a default or imminent default
with respect to the Home Equity Loan or (ii) the delivery of such opinion.

         (c) In addition to the foregoing, the Custodian, on behalf of the
Trustee also agrees to make a review during the 12th month after the Startup Day
indicating the current status of the exceptions previously indicated on the Pool
Certification (the "Final Certification"). After delivery of the Final
Certification, the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee and the Servicer shall
provide to the Certificate Insurer no less frequently than monthly updated
certifications indicating the then current status of exceptions, until all such
exceptions have been eliminated.

         Section 3.07.  Reserved.

         Section 3.08.  CUSTODIAN.

         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the parties
hereto acknowledge that the functions of the Trustee with respect to the
custody, acceptance, inspection and release of the Files pursuant to Sections
3.05, 3.06, and 8.14 and the related Pool Certification and Final Certification
shall be performed by the Custodian on the Trustee's behalf pursuant to the
Custodial Agreement; provided, however, the Trustee shall remain primarily
liable for such obligations. The fees and expenses of the Custodian will be paid
by the Servicer.

         If, pursuant to Section 4.12 of the Custodial Agreement, the Custodian
shall request written instructions from the Trustee, the Trustee hereby agrees
to promptly provide such instructions.

         Section 3.09. COOPERATION PROCEDURES. CHEC shall, in connection with
the delivery of each Qualified Replacement Mortgage to the Custodian, on behalf
of the Trustee, provide the Trustee with information set forth in the Schedules
of Home Equity Loans with respect to such Qualified Replacement Mortgage.

         (a) The Seller, the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee covenant to
provide each other with all data and information required to be provided by them
hereunder at the times

                                      58
<PAGE>

required hereunder, and additionally covenant reasonably to cooperate with
each other in providing any additional information required to be obtained by
any of them in connection with their respective duties hereunder.

         (b) The Servicer shall maintain such accurate and complete accounts,
records and computer systems pertaining to each File as shall enable it and the
Trustee to comply with this Agreement. In performing its recordkeeping duties
the Servicer shall act in accordance with the servicing standards set forth in
this Agreement. The Servicer shall conduct, or cause to be conducted, periodic
audits of its accounts, records and computer systems as set forth in Section
8.16 and 8.17 hereof. The Servicer shall promptly report in writing to the
Trustee any failure on its part to maintain its accounts, records and computer
systems herein provided and promptly take appropriate action to remedy any such
failure.

         (c) CHEC further confirms to the Trustee that it has caused the
portions of the electronic ledger relating to the Home Equity Loans to be
clearly and unambiguously marked to indicate that such Home Equity Loans have
been sold, transferred, assigned and conveyed through the Depositor to the
Trustee and constitute part of the Trust Estate in accordance with the terms of
the trust created hereunder and that the Seller will treat the transaction
contemplated by such sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance as a sale for
accounting purposes.

                     CERTIFICATES AND TRANSFER OF INTERESTS

         Section 5.01.  TERMS.

         (a) The Certificates are pass-through securities having the rights
described therein and herein. Notwithstanding references herein or therein with
respect to the Certificates as to "principal" and "interest" thereof, no debt of
any Person is represented thereby, nor are the Certificates or the underlying
Notes guaranteed by any Person (except that the Notes may be recourse to the
Mortgagors thereof to the extent permitted by law and the terms of the related
Note and except for the rights of the Trustee on behalf of the Owners of the
Class A Certificates with respect to the Certificate Insurance Policies). The
Class A Certificates are payable solely from payments received on or with
respect to the Home Equity Loans (net of the Servicing Fees, Trustee Fees, and
Premium Amounts), moneys in the Principal and Interest Account, except as
otherwise provided herein, from earnings on moneys and the proceeds of property
held as a part of the Trust Estate and, upon the occurrence of certain events,
from Insured Payments. Each Certificate entitles the Owner thereof to receive
monthly on each Distribution Date, in order of priority of distributions with
respect to such Class of Certificates as set forth in Section 7.03, a specified
portion of such payments with respect to the Home Equity Loans, certain related
Insured Payments, PRO RATA in accordance with such Owner's Percentage Interest.

         (b) Each Owner is required, and hereby agrees, to return to the
Trustee, any Certificate prior to the Trustee making the final distribution due
thereon. Any such Certificate as to which the Trustee has made the final
distribution thereon shall be deemed canceled and shall no longer be Outstanding
for any purpose of this Agreement.

         Section 5.02.  FORMS.

         The Class A-1 Certificates, the Class A-2 Certificates, the Class A-3
Certificates, the Class A-4 Certificates, the Class A-5 Certificates, the Class
A-6, the Class A-7 Certificates, the Class X-IO Certificates and the Class R
Certificates shall be in substantially the forms set forth in Exhibits A-1, A-2,
A-3, A-4, A-5, A-6, A-7, B and C hereof, respectively.

         Section 5.03.  EXECUTION, AUTHENTICATION AND DELIVERY.

         Each Certificate shall be executed on behalf of the Trust, by the
manual signature of one of the Trustee's Authorized Officers at the written
direction of the Servicer. In addition, each Certificate shall be authenticated
by the manual signature of one of the Trustee's Authorized Officers at the
written direction of the Servicer.

         Certificates bearing the manual signature of individuals who were at
any time the proper officers of the Trustee shall, upon proper authentication by
the Trustee, bind the Trust, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of
them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the execution and delivery of
such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication of
such Certificates.

                                      61
<PAGE>

         The initial Certificates shall be dated as of the Startup Day and
delivered at the Closing to the parties specified in Section 4.02 hereof.
Subsequently issued Certificates will be dated as of the issuance of the
Certificate.

         No Certificate shall be valid until executed and authenticated as set
forth above.

         Section 5.04.  REGISTRATION AND TRANSFER OF CERTIFICATES.

         (a) The Trustee shall cause to be kept a register (the "Register") in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee
shall provide for the registration of Certificates and the registration of
transfer of Certificates. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed Registrar
for the purpose of registering Certificates and transfers of Certificates as
herein provided. The Certificate Insurer, the Owners and the Trustee shall have
the right to inspect the Register upon reasonable notice during the Trustee's
normal hours and to obtain copies thereof, and the Trustee shall have the right
to rely upon a certificate executed on behalf of the Registrar by an Authorized
Officer thereof as to the names and addresses of the Owners of the Certificates
and the principal amounts and numbers of such Certificates.

         If a Person other than the Trustee is appointed as Registrar by the
Owners of a majority of the aggregate Voting Rights represented by the
Certificates then Outstanding with the consent of the Certificate Insurer, such
Owners shall give the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer and the Owners prompt
written notice of the appointment of such Registrar and of the location, and any
change in the location, of the Register. In connection with any such appointment
the reasonable fees of the Registrar shall be paid, as expenses of the Trust,
pursuant to Section 7.06 hereof.

         (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 5.08 hereof, upon surrender
for registration of transfer of any Certificate at the office designated as the
location of the Register, upon the direction of the Registrar, the Trustee shall
execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or
transferees, one or more new Certificates of a like Class and in the aggregate
outstanding principal amount or Percentage Interest of the Certificate so
surrendered.

         (c) At the option of any Owner, Certificates of any Class owned by such
Owner may be exchanged for other Certificates authorized of like Class and tenor
and a like aggregate outstanding principal amount or Percentage Interest and
bearing numbers not contemporaneously outstanding, upon surrender of the
Certificates to be exchanged at the office designated as the location of the
Register. Whenever any Certificate is so surrendered for exchange, upon the
direction of the Registrar, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver
the Certificate or Certificates which the Owner making the exchange is entitled
to receive.

         (d) All Certificates issued upon any registration of transfer or
exchange of Certificates shall be valid evidence of the same ownership interests
in the Trust and entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as the
Certificates surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

                                      62
<PAGE>

         (e) Every Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of
transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by
the Owner thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

         (f) No service charge shall be made to an Owner for any registration of
transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Registrar or Trustee may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of
Certificates; any other expenses in connection with such transfer or exchange
shall be an expense of the Trust.

         (g) It is intended that the Class A Certificates be registered so as to
participate in a global book-entry system with the Depository, as set forth
herein. Each Class of Class A Certificates shall, except as otherwise provided
in Subsection (h), be initially issued in the form of a single fully registered
Class A Certificate of such Class. Upon initial issuance, the ownership of each
such Class A Certificate shall be registered in the Register in the name of Cede
& Co., or any successor thereto, as nominee for the Depository.

         On the Startup Day, the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4,
Class A-5, Class A-6 and Class A-7 Certificates shall be issued in denominations
of [$1,000] and integral multiples of [$1] in excess thereof.

         The Depositor and the Trustee are hereby authorized to execute and
deliver the Representation Letter with the Depository in the form provided to
the Trustee by the Depositor.

         With respect to the Class A Certificates registered in the Register in
the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of the Depository, the Depositor, the
Servicer, the Seller, the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee shall have no
responsibility or obligation to Direct or Indirect Participants or beneficial
owners for which the Depository holds Class A Certificates from time to time as
a Depository. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Sellers, the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee
shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to (i) the accuracy of
the records of the Depository, Cede & Co., or any Direct or Indirect Participant
with respect to the ownership interest in the Class A Certificates, (ii) the
delivery to any Direct or Indirect Participant or any other Person, other than a
registered Owner of a Class A Certificate as shown in the Register, of any
notice with respect to the Class A Certificates or (iii) the payment to any
Direct or Indirect Participant or any other Person, other than a registered
Owner of a Class A Certificate as shown in the Register, of any amount with
respect to any distribution of principal or interest on the Class A
Certificates. No Person other than a registered Owner of a Class A Certificate
as shown in the Register shall receive a certificate evidencing such Class A
Certificate.

         Upon delivery by the Depository to the Trustee of written notice to the
effect that the Depository has determined to substitute a new nominee in place
of Cede & Co., and subject to the provisions hereof with respect to the payment
of interest by the mailing of checks or drafts to the registered Owners of Class
A Certificates appearing as registered Owners in the registration books
maintained by the Trustee at the close of business on a Record Date, the name
"Cede & Co." in this Agreement shall refer to such new nominee of the
Depository.

                                      63
<PAGE>

         (h) In the event that (i) the Depository or the Depositor advises the
Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to discharge
properly its responsibilities as nominee and depository with respect to the
Class A Certificates and any of CHEC or the Trustee is unable to locate a
qualified successor or (ii) the Depositor at its sole option elects to terminate
the book-entry system through the Depository, the Class A Certificates shall no
longer be restricted to being registered in the Register in the name of Cede &
Co. (or a successor nominee) as nominee of the Depository or (iii) after the
occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event, the beneficial owners of each Class
of Class A Certificates representing Percentage Interests aggregating not less
than ___% advises the Trustee and Depository through the Direct or Indirect
Participants in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through the
Depository to the exclusion of definitive, fully registered certificates (the
"Definitive Certificates") to Owners is no longer in the best interests of the
Owners. In the case of (i) and (ii) above, CHEC may determine that the Class A
Certificates shall be registered in the name of and deposited with a successor
depository operating a global book-entry system, as may be acceptable to the
CHEC and at the expense of CHEC, or such depository's agent or designee but, if
CHEC does not select such alternative global book-entry system and in the case
of (iii) above, then the Class A Certificates may be registered in whatever name
or names registered Owners of Class A Certificates transferring Class A
Certificates shall designate, in accordance with the provisions hereof.

         (i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, so long as any Class A Certificate is registered in the name of Cede &
Co., as nominee of the Depository, all distributions of principal or interest on
such Class A Certificates and all notices with respect to such Class A
Certificates shall be made and given, respectively, in the manner provided in
the Representation Letter.

         Section 5.05.  MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN CERTIFICATES.

         If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee, or the
Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft
of any Certificate, and (ii) in the case of any mutilated Certificate, such
mutilated Certificate shall first be surrendered to the Trustee, and in the case
of any destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, there shall be first delivered to
the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by it to
hold the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer harmless (PROVIDED, THAT with
respect to an Owner which is an institutional investor, a letter of indemnity
furnished by it shall be sufficient for this purpose), then, in the absence of
written notice to the Trustee or the Registrar that such Certificate has been
acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Seller shall execute and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like
Class, tenor and aggregate principal amount, bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding.

         Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the
Registrar or Trustee may require the payment from the transferor or transferee
of the related Certificate of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto; any other expenses
in connection with such issuance shall be an expense of the Trust.

                                      64
<PAGE>

         Every new Certificate issued pursuant to this Section in exchange for
or in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall
constitute evidence of a substitute interest in the Trust, and shall be entitled
to all the benefits of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and
all other Certificates of the same Class duly issued hereunder and such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall not be valid for any
purpose.

         The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the
extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificates.

         Section 5.06.  PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS.

         Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any
Certificate, the Certificate Insurer, the Trustee and any agent of the Trustee
may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the Owner of
such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions with respect to such
Certificate and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Certificate
Insurer, the Trustee nor any agent of the Trustee shall be affected by notice to
the contrary.

         Section 5.07.  CANCELLATION.

         All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange
shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the
Trustee and shall be promptly canceled by it. No Certificate shall be
authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Certificate canceled as provided
in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement. All canceled
Certificates may be held by the Trustee in accordance with its standard
retention policy in effect from time to time.

         Section 5.08.  LIMITATION ON TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP RIGHTS.

         (a) No sale or other transfer of record or beneficial ownership of a
Class R Certificate (whether pursuant to a purchase, a transfer resulting from a
default under a secured lending agreement or otherwise) shall be made to a
Disqualified Organization or an agent of a Disqualified Organization. The
transfer, sale or other disposition of a Class R Certificate (whether pursuant
to a purchase, a transfer resulting from a default under a secured lending
agreement or otherwise) to a Disqualified Organization shall be deemed to be of
no legal force or effect whatsoever and such transferee shall not be deemed to
be an Owner for any purpose hereunder, including, but not limited to, the
receipt of distributions on such Class R Certificate. Furthermore, in no event
shall the Trustee accept surrender for transfer, registration of transfer, or
register the transfer, of any Class R Certificate nor authenticate and make
available any new Class R Certificate unless the Trustee has received an
affidavit from the proposed transferee in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H.
Each holder of a Class R Certificate by his acceptance thereof, shall be deemed
for all purposes to have consented to the provisions of this Section 5.08(a).

                                      65

<PAGE>

         (b) No other sale or other transfer of record or beneficial ownership
of a Class X-IO or Class R Certificate shall be made unless such transfer is
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and any
applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with said Securities
Act and laws. In the event of any such a transfer: (i) in the case of transfers
for which an investment letter in the form of Exhibit I-1 is provided by the
transferee to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer, the Trustee or the
Depositor shall require a written Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form
and substance satisfactory to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificate
Insurer to the effect that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption,
describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from said Securities
Act and laws or is being made pursuant to said Securities Act and laws, which
Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Trust Estate or the Certificate Insurer; and (ii) in the case of transfers for
which an investment letter in the form of Exhibit I-1 or I-2 is provided, the
investment letter shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Trust Estate or the Certificate Insurer. The Owner of a Class X-IO or Class R
Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to,
indemnify the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer, the Depositor and the Sellers
against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not
made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

         (c) No transfer of a Class X-IO or Class R Certificate shall be made
unless the Trustee shall have received either: (i) a representation letter from
the transferee of such Class X-IO or Class R Certificate, acceptable to and in
form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer
(which may be combined with the investment letter required by subsection (b)
above), to the effect that such transferee is not an employee benefit plan
subject to Section 406 of ERISA nor a plan or other arrangement subject to
Section 406 of ERISA nor a plan or other arrangement subject to Section 4975 of
the Code (collectively, a "Plan"), nor is acting on behalf of any Plan nor using
the assets of any Plan to effect such transfer or (ii) in the event that any
Class X-IO or Class R Certificate is purchased by a Plan, or by a person or
entity acting on behalf of any Plan or using the assets of any Plan to effect
such transfer (including the assets of any Plan held in an insurance company
separate or general account), an Opinion of Counsel, acceptable to and in form
and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer, which
Opinion of Counsel shall not be at the expense of either the Trustee, the
Certificate Insurer or the Trust, to the effect that the purchase or holding of
any Class X-IO or Class R Certificates will not result in any non-exempt
prohibited transaction under ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code, and will not
subject the Trustee to any obligation or liability in addition to those
expressly undertaken under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything else to the
contrary herein, any purported transfer of a Certificate to or on behalf of any
Plan without the delivery to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer of an
Opinion of Counsel as described above shall be null and void and of no effect.

         (d)      Reserved.

         (e)      Reserved.

         (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
5.08, the Class R Certificates and Class X-IO Certificates may be transferred to
CHEC Residual Corporation, a

                                       66
<PAGE>

Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Seller, without regard
to Sections 5.08(b), (c) or (e) above.

         Section 5.09.  ASSIGNMENT OF RIGHTS.

         Other than with respect to any Class R Certificates (unless the Trustee
shall have received a satisfactory Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such
action with respect to a Class R Certificate will not have an adverse effect on
the status of either REMIC I or REMIC II as a "REMIC") an Owner may pledge,
encumber, hypothecate or assign all or any part of its right to receive
distributions hereunder, but such pledge, encumbrance, hypothecation or
assignment shall not constitute a transfer of an ownership interest sufficient
to render the transferee an Owner of the Trust without compliance with the
provisions of Section 5.04 and Section 5.08 hereof.

                                    COVENANTS

         Section 6.01.  DISTRIBUTIONS.

         On each Distribution Date, the Trustee will withdraw amounts from
the Certificate Account and make the distributions with respect to the
Certificates in accordance with the terms of the Certificates and this
Agreement. Such distributions shall be made (i) in the case of the Class A
Certificates registered in the name of the Depository, by wire transfer to
the Depository or (ii) in each other case, by check or draft mailed on each
Distribution Date or, if requested by any Owner (other than the Depository)
of (A) a Class A Certificate having an original principal balance of not less
than [$1,000,000]or (B) a Class X-IO or Class R Certificate having a
Percentage Interest of not less than ____% in writing not later than one
Business Day prior to the applicable Record Date (which request does not have
to be repeated unless it has been withdrawn), to such Owner by wire transfer
to an account within the United States designated no later than five Business
Days prior to the related Record Date, made on each Distribution Date, in
each case to each Owner of record on the immediately preceding Record Date.

         Section 6.02. MONEY FOR DISTRIBUTIONS TO BE HELD IN TRUST; WITHHOLDING.

         (a) All payments of amounts due and payable with respect to any
Certificate that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the Certificate
Account or from Insured Payments shall be made by and on behalf of the Trustee
or by a Paying Agent, and no amounts so withdrawn from the Certificate Account
for payments of Certificates and no Insured Payment shall be paid over to the
Trustee except as provided in this Section.

         (b) If CHEC has appointed a Paying Agent pursuant to Section 11.15
hereof, the Trustee will, on the Business Day immediately preceding each
Distribution Date, deposit with such Paying Agent in immediately available funds
an aggregate sum sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due (to the extent
funds are then available for such purpose in the Certificate Account for the
Class to which such amounts are due) such sum to be held in trust for the
benefit of the Owners entitled thereto.

         (c) CHEC may at any time direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Trustee
all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee
upon the same trusts as those upon which the sums were held by such Paying
Agent; and upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying
Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

         (d) CHEC shall require the Paying Agent, including the Trustee on
behalf of the Trust to comply with all requirements of the Code and applicable
state and local law with respect to the withholding from any distributions made
by it to any Owner of any applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with
respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith, and
the Trustee and Paying Agent agree to comply with such requirements.

                                       68
<PAGE>

         (e) Any money held by the Trustee or a Paying Agent in trust for the
payment of any amount due with respect to any Class A Certificate remaining
unclaimed by the Owner of such Certificate for the period then specified in the
escheat laws of the State of New York after such amount has become due and
payable shall be discharged from such trust and be paid first to the Certificate
Insurer on account of any Reimbursement Amount and second to the Depositor; and
the Owner of such Class A Certificate shall thereafter, as an unsecured general
creditor, look only to the Depositor and not to the Certificate Insurer for
payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Depositor)
and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust
money shall thereupon cease; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee or such Paying
Agent before being required to make any such payment, may at the expense of the
Trust cause to be published once, in the eastern edition of THE WALL STREET
JOURNAL, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date
specified therein, which shall be not fewer than 30 days from the date of such
publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be paid to
the Certificate Insurer on account of any Reimbursement Amount or to the
Depositor. The Trustee shall, at the written direction of CHEC, also adopt and
employ, at the expense of CHEC, any other reasonable means of notification of
such payment (including but not limited to mailing notice of such payment to
Owners whose right to or interest in moneys due and payable but not claimed is
determinable from the records of the Registrar, the Trustee or any Paying Agent,
at the last address of record for each such Owner).

         Section 6.03.  PROTECTION OF TRUST ESTATE.

         (a) The Trustee will hold the Trust Estate in trust for the benefit of
the Owners and the Certificate Insurer and, upon written request of the
Certificate Insurer or, with the consent of the Certificate Insurer, at the
request of the Depositor, will from time to time execute and deliver all such
supplements and amendments hereto pursuant to Section 11.14 hereof and all
instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and will take such other
action upon such request from the Depositor (with the consent of the Certificate
Insurer) or the Certificate Insurer, to:

                  (i) more effectively hold in trust all or any portion of the
         Trust Estate;

                  (ii) perfect, publish notice of, or protect the validity of
         any grant made or to be made by this Agreement;

                  (iii)    enforce any of the Home Equity Loans; or

                  (iv) preserve and defend title to the Trust Estate and the
         rights of the Trustee, and the ownership interests of the Owners
         represented thereby, in such Trust Estate against the claims of all
         Persons and parties.

         To the extent not covered by the indemnity or other security
contemplated by 10.01(e) and 10.01(g), the Trustee shall be reimbursed for any
costs or expenses associated with this section pursuant to Section 7.03(b)(x).

                                       69
<PAGE>

         (b) The Trustee shall have the power to enforce, and shall enforce the
obligations and rights of the other parties to this Agreement, and of the
Certificate Insurer or the Owners, by action, suit or proceeding at law or
equity, and shall also have the power to enjoin, by action or suit in equity,
any acts or occurrences which may be unlawful or in violation of the rights of
the Certificate Insurer or the Owners as such rights are set forth in this
Agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing in this Section shall require any
action by the Trustee unless the Trustee shall first (i) have been furnished
indemnity satisfactory to it and (ii) when required by this Agreement, have been
requested by the Certificate Insurer or the Owners of a majority of the Voting
Rights represented by the Certificates then Outstanding with the consent of the
Certificate Insurer (unless a Certificate Insurer Default under clause (a) of
the definition thereof has occurred and is continuing); PROVIDED, FURTHER,
HOWEVER, that if there is a dispute with respect to payments under the
Certificate Insurance Policies the Trustee's first responsibility is to the
Owners.

         (c) The Trustee shall execute any instrument required pursuant to this
Section so long as such instrument does not conflict with this Agreement or with
the Trustee's fiduciary duties, or adversely affect its rights, indemnities and
immunities hereunder.

         Section 6.04.  PERFORMANCE OF OBLIGATIONS.

         The Trustee will not take any action that would release any Person from
any of such Person's covenants or obligations under any instrument or document
relating to the Certificates or which would result in the amendment,
hypothecation, subordination, termination or discharge of, or impair the
validity or effectiveness of, any such instrument or document, except as
expressly provided in this Agreement or such other instrument or document.

         The Trustee may contract with other Persons to assist it in performing
its duties hereunder pursuant to Section 10.03(g); provided, that the Trustee
shall remain liable for the performance of any such duties notwithstanding any
such contractual arrangement.

         Section 6.05.  NEGATIVE COVENANTS.

         The Trustee will not:

                  (i) sell, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of any of
         the Trust Estate except as expressly permitted by this Agreement;

                  (ii) claim any credit on or make any deduction from the
         distributions payable in respect of, the Certificates (other than
         amounts properly withheld from such payments under the Code) or assert
         any claim against any present or former Owner by reason of the payment
         of any taxes levied or assessed upon any of the Trust Estate;

                  (iii) incur, assume or guaranty, on behalf of the Trust, any
         indebtedness of any Person except pursuant to this Agreement;

                  (iv) dissolve or liquidate the Trust in whole or in part,
         except pursuant to Article IX hereof; or

                                       70
<PAGE>

                  (v) (A) permit the validity or effectiveness of this Agreement
         to be impaired, or permit any Person to be released from any covenant
         or obligation with respect to the Trust or to the Certificates under
         this Agreement, except as may be expressly permitted hereby or (B)
         permit any lien, charge, adverse claim, security interest, mortgage or
         other encumbrance to be created on or extend to or otherwise arise upon
         or burden the Trust Estate or any part thereof or any interest therein
         or the proceeds thereof.

         Section 6.06.  NO OTHER POWERS.

         The Trustee will not permit the Trust to engage in any business
activity or transaction other than those activities permitted by Section 2.03
hereof.

         Section 6.07.  LIMITATION OF SUITS.

         No Owner shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, with respect to this Agreement or the Certificate Insurance Policies,
or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of the Trust, or for any other
remedy with respect to an event of default hereunder, unless:

         (1)      such Owner has previously given written notice to the Seller
                  and the Trustee of such Owner's intention to institute such
                  proceeding;

         (2)      the Owners of not less than [25%] of the Voting Rights
                  represented by the Certificates then Outstanding shall have
                  made written request to the Trustee to institute such
                  proceeding in its own name as Trustee establishing the Trust;

         (3)      such Owner or Owners have offered to the Trustee reasonable
                  indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be
                  incurred in compliance with such request;

         (4)      the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice,
                  request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute such
                  proceeding;

         (5)      as long as any Class A Certificates are Outstanding or any
                  Reimbursement Amounts are owed to the Certificate Insurer, the
                  Certificate Insurer has consented in writing thereto (unless a
                  Certificate Insurer Default as defined in clause (a) of the
                  definition thereof has occurred and is continuing); and

         (6)      no direction inconsistent with such written request has been
                  given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Owners
                  of a majority of the Voting Rights represented by the
                  Certificates then Outstanding;

it being understood and intended that no one or more Owners shall have any right
in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing themselves of, any provision
of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Owner
of the same Class or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over
any other Owner of the same Class or to enforce any right under this Agreement,
except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of
all the Owners of the same Class.

                                       71
<PAGE>

         In the event the Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent
requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Owners, each representing less
than a majority of the applicable Class of Certificates and each conforming to
paragraphs (1)-(6) of this Section 6.07, the Certificate Insurer in its sole
discretion may determine what action, if any, shall be taken, notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement.

         Section 6.08.  UNCONDITIONAL RIGHTS OF OWNERS TO RECEIVE DISTRIBUTIONS.

         Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Owner of any
Certificate shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to
receive distributions to the extent provided herein and therein with respect to
such Certificate or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such
distribution, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such
Owner.

         Section 6.09.  RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

         Except as otherwise provided herein, no right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer or to the
Owners is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right
and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition
to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at
law or in equity or otherwise. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall
not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate
right or remedy.

         Section 6.10.  DELAY OR OMISSION NOT WAIVER.

         No delay of the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer or any Owner of any
Certificate to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement shall impair
any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of such right or remedy. Every
right and remedy given by this Article VI or by law to the Trustee, the
Certificate Insurer or to the Owners may be exercised from time to time, and as
often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer, or by
the Owners, as the case may be.

         Section 6.11.  CONTROL BY OWNERS.

         The Certificate Insurer or the Owners of a majority of the Voting
Rights represented by the Certificates then Outstanding with the consent of the
Certificate Insurer may direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee with respect to the
Certificates or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with
respect to the Certificates or the Trust Estate, including, but not limited to,
those powers set forth in Section 6.03 and Section 8.20 hereof, PROVIDED THAT:

         (1)      such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law
                  or with this Agreement;

         (2)      the Trustee shall have been provided with indemnity
                  satisfactory to it; and

                                       72
<PAGE>

         (3)      the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
                  Trustee, as the case may be, which is not inconsistent with
                  such direction (and which does not require Certificate Insurer
                  consent or direction pursuant to the terms of this Agreement);
                  PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee need not take any action
                  which it determines might involve it in liability or may be
                  unjustly prejudicial to the Owners not so directing.

         Section 6.12.  INDEMNIFICATION BY CHEC.

         CHEC agrees to indemnify and hold the Trustee, the Depositor, the
Certificate Insurer and each Owner harmless against any and all claims, losses,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any
other costs, fees and expenses that the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate
Insurer and any Owner sustain in any way related to the failure of Seller to
perform its duties in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. CHEC shall
immediately notify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate Insurer and each
Owner if a claim is made by a third party that the Servicer has failed to
perform its obligations to service and administer the Home Equity Loans in
compliance with the terms of this Agreement, and CHEC shall assume (with the
consent of the Trustee) the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in
connection therewith, including reasonable counsel fees, and promptly pay,
discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Sellers, the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer
and/or Owner in respect of such claim. The Trustee shall, in accordance with
instructions received from CHEC, reimburse CHEC only from amounts otherwise
distributable on the Class X-IO and the Class R Certificates for all amounts
advanced by it pursuant to the preceding sentence, except when a final
nonappealable adjudication determines that the claim relates directly to the
failure of CHEC to perform its duties in compliance with the terms of this
Agreement. The provisions of this Section 6.12 shall survive the termination of
this Agreement and the payment of the outstanding Certificates.

         (e) Upon receipt of Insured Payments from the Certificate Insurer on
behalf of Owners of the Class A Certificates, the Trustee shall deposit such

pursuant to Section 12.02(b) hereof, such amounts will be transferred from the
Policy Payments Account to the Certificate Account and the Trustee shall
distribute such Insured Payments, or the proceeds thereof, to the Owners of such
Class A Certificates, first, to the payment of any unpaid Current Interest for
such Class or Classes of Class A Certificates on a pro rata basis, and second,
any Group I Guaranteed Principal Amount or Group II Guaranteed Principal Amount
of the related Class A Principal Distribution Amount on the related Distribution
Date, in the same order of priority as described in Section 7.03(b)(iii).

         (f) The Trustee or Paying Agent shall (i) receive for each Owner of the

disburse the same to the Owners of the related Class A Certificates as set forth

from proceeds of the related Certificate Insurance Policy shall not be
considered payment by the Trust, nor shall such payments discharge the
obligation of the Trust with respect to such Class A Certificates and the
Certificate Insurer shall be entitled to receive the Reimbursement Amount
pursuant to Section 7.03(b) hereof. Nothing

                                       77
<PAGE>

contained in this paragraph shall be construed so as to impose duties or
obligations on the Trustee that are different from or in addition to those
expressly set forth in this Agreement.

         The rights of the Owners to receive distributions from the proceeds of
the Trust Estate, and all ownership interests of the Owners in such
distributions, shall be as set forth in this Agreement. In this regard, all
rights of the Owners of the Class X-IO and Class R Certificates to receive
distributions in respect of the Class X-IO and Class R Certificates shall be
subject and subordinate to the preferential rights of the holders of the Class A
Certificates to receive distributions thereon and the ownership interests of
such Owners in such distributions, as described herein. In accordance with the
foregoing, the ownership interests of the Owners of the Class X-IO and Class R
Certificates in amounts deposited in the Accounts from time to time shall not
vest unless and until such amounts are distributed in respect of the Class X-IO
and Class R Certificates in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, and the
Owners of the Class X-IO and Class R Certificates shall not be required to
refund any amount properly distributed on the Class X-IO and Class R
Certificates pursuant to this Section 7.03.

         Section 7.04. SUPPLEMENTAL INTEREST RESERVE FUND. On the Closing Date,
the holders of the Class X-IO Certificates will deposit, or cause to be
deposited, into the Supplemental Interest Reserve Fund, [$10,000]. On each
Distribution Date as to which there is Current WAC Excess or Class A-7 Interest
Index Carryover, the Trustee has been directed to, and shall therefore, deposit
into the Supplemental Interest Reserve Account an amount equal to the Current
WAC Excess of the Current Interest on the Class A-7 Certificates which is
payable pursuant to Section 7.03(b)(ii), and/or the Class A-7 Interest Index
Carryover pursuant to Section 7.03(b)(ix). If no current WAC Excess or Class A-7
Interest Index Carryover are payable on a Distribution Date, the Trustee shall
deposit into the Supplemental Reserve Account on behalf of the Class X-IO
Certificateholders an amount such that when added to other amounts already on
deposit in the fund, the aggregate amount on deposit therein is equal to
[$10,000]. For federal and state income tax purposes, the Class X-IO
Certificateholders will be deemed to be the owners of the Supplemental Interest
Reserve Fund and all amounts deposited into the Supplemental Interest Reserve
Fund (other than the initial [$10,000] deposit) shall be treated as amounts
distributed by REMIC II with respect to the Class X-IO Distribution Amount.
Amounts held in the Supplemental Interest Reserve Fund and not distributable to
the Class A-7 Certificateholders on any Distribution Date will be invested by
the Trustee in investments designated by the Class X-IO Certificateholders
having maturities on or prior to the next succeeding Distribution Date on which
such amounts will be distributable to the Class A-7 Certificateholders. Upon the
termination of the Trust, or the payment in full of the Class A-7 Certificates,
all amounts remaining on deposit in the Supplemental Interest Reserve Fund will
be released from the lien of the Trust and distributed to the Class X-IO
Certificateholders or their designees. The Supplemental Interest Reserve Fund
will be part of the Trust but not part of any REMIC Pool and any payments to the
Class A-7 Certificates of Current WAC Excess and Supplemental Interest Amounts
will not be payments with respect to a "regular interest" in a REMIC within the
meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(1).

         The Trustee shall forward such report (together with the information

Certificateholders, the Rating Agencies and the Certificate Insurer.

         (c) The Trustee shall, on behalf of the Trust, cause to be filed with
the Commission any periodic reports required to be filed on behalf of the Trust
under the provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the
Commission thereunder. Upon the request of the Trustee, each of the Seller, the
Servicer and the Depositor shall cooperate with the Trustee in the preparation
of any such report and shall provide to the Trustee in a timely manner all such

         acceptance slips for such filings. On the Startup Day, the Depositor
         shall provide the Trustee with a letter at Closing, substantially in
         the form attached hereto as Exhibit M, instructing the Trustee, as
         filing agent, to comply with the reporting obligations for the Trust
         under the Exchange Act.

         Section 7.10.  REPORTS BY TRUSTEE.

         (a) The Trustee shall report to the Depositor, the Seller, the
Certificate Insurer and each Owner, with respect to the amount on deposit in the
Certificate Account (including the amount therein relating to each Group) and
the identity of the investments included therein, as the Depositor, the Seller,
any Owner or the Certificate Insurer may from time to time reasonably request.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trustee shall, at the
reasonable request of the Depositor, the Seller, any Owner or the Certificate
Insurer transmit promptly to the Depositor, the Seller, any Owner and the
Certificate Insurer copies of all accountings of receipts in respect of the Home
Equity Loans furnished to it by the Servicer and shall notify the Seller and the
Certificate Insurer if any Monthly Remittance Amount has not been received by
the Trustee when due.

         (b) The Trustee shall report to the Certificate Insurer and each Owner
with respect to any written notices it may from time to time receive which
provide an Authorized Officer with actual knowledge that any of the statements

right to change the way the report referred to in Section 7.09 herein is
distributed in order to make such distribution more convenient and/or more
accessible to the above parties and the Trustee shall provide timely and
adequate notification to all above parties regarding any such changes.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                SERVICING AND ADMINISTRATION OF HOME EQUITY LOANS

         Section 8.01.  SERVICER AND SUB-SERVICERS.

         Acting directly or through one or more Sub-Servicers as provided in
Section 8.03, the Servicer shall service and administer the Home Equity Loans in
accordance with this Agreement and the terms of the respective Home Equity
Loans, and with prudent and reasonable care, using the degree of skill and
attention that the Servicer exercises with respect to comparable home equity
loans that it services for itself or others and shall have full power and
authority, acting alone, to do or cause to be done any and all things in
connection with such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or
desirable but without regard to: (i) any relationship that the Servicer, any
Sub-Servicer or any Affiliate of the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer may have with
the related Mortgagor; (ii) the ownership of any Certificate by the Servicer or
any Affiliate of the Servicer; (iii) the Servicer's obligation to make
Delinquency Advances or Servicing Advances; or (iv) the Servicer's or any
Sub-Servicer's right to receive compensation for its services hereunder or with
respect to any particular transaction.

         Subject to Section 8.03 hereof, the Servicer may, and is hereby
authorized to, perform any of its servicing responsibilities with respect to all
or certain of the Home Equity Loans through a Sub-Servicer as it may from time
to time designate, but no such designation of a Sub-Servicer shall serve to
release the Servicer from any of its obligations under this Agreement. Such
Sub-Servicer shall have the rights and powers of the Servicer which have been
delegated to such Sub-Servicer with respect to such Home Equity Loans under this
Agreement.

         Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to
Sections 8.13 and 8.14, the Servicer in its own name or in the name of a
Sub-Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on
behalf of itself, the Owners and the Trustee or any of them, (i) any and all
instruments of satisfaction or cancellation or of partial or full release or
discharge and all other comparable instruments with respect to the Home Equity
Loans and with respect to the Properties, (ii) to institute foreclosure
proceedings or obtain a deed in lieu of foreclosure so as to effect ownership of
any Property in the name of the Servicer on behalf of the Trustee, and (iii) to
hold title to any Property upon such foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure
on behalf of the Trustee; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that to the extent any instrument
described in clause (i) preceding would be delivered by the Servicer outside of
its usual procedures for home equity loans held in its own portfolio the
Servicer shall, prior to executing and delivering such instrument, obtain the
prior written consent of the Certificate Insurer, and PROVIDED, FURTHER,
however, that Section 8.13(a) and Section 8.14(a) shall each constitute a
revocable power of attorney from the Trustee to the Servicer to execute an
instrument of satisfaction (or assignment of mortgage without recourse) with
respect to any Home Equity Loan held by the Trustee hereunder paid in full or
foreclosed (or with respect to which payment in full has been escrowed).
Revocation of the power of attorney created by the final proviso of the
preceding sentence shall take effect upon (i) the receipt by the Servicer of
written notice thereof from the Trustee, (ii) a Servicer Termination Event or
(iii) the termination of the Trust. The Trustee shall at the written direction
of the Servicer execute any documentation furnished to it by the Servicer for
recordation by the

                                       87
<PAGE>

Servicer in the appropriate jurisdictions, as shall be necessary to
effectuate the foregoing. Subject to Sections 8.13 and 8.14, the Trustee
shall, if necessary, execute a limited power of attorney in the form
reasonably acceptable to the Trustee to the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer and
furnish them with any other documents as the Servicer or such Sub-Servicer
shall reasonably request to enable the Servicer and such Sub-Servicer to
carry out their respective servicing and administrative duties hereunder.

         Upon the request of the Trustee, the Servicer shall send to the Trustee
the details concerning the servicing of the Home Equity Loans on computer
generated tape, diskette or other machine readable format which is mutually
agreeable.

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

         Servicing Advances incurred by the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer in
connection with the servicing of the Home Equity Loans (including any penalties
in connection with the payment of any taxes and assessments or other charges) on
any Property shall be recoverable by the Servicer or such Sub-Servicer to the
extent described in Section 8.09(b) hereof.

         Section 8.02.  COLLECTION OF CERTAIN HOME EQUITY LOAN PAYMENTS.

         The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments
called for under the terms and provisions of the Home Equity Loans, and shall,
to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the
terms and provisions of any applicable Insurance Policy, follow collection
procedures for all Home Equity Loans at least as rigorous as those described in
the FNMA Guide. Consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer may in its
discretion waive or permit to be waived any late payment charge, prepayment
charge, assumption fee or any penalty interest in connection with the prepayment
of a Home Equity Loan or any other fee or charge which the Servicer would be
entitled to retain hereunder as servicing compensation. In the event the
Servicer shall consent to the deferment of the due dates for payments due on a
Note, the Servicer shall nonetheless make payment of any required Delinquency
Advance with respect to the payments so extended to the same extent as if such
installment were due, owing and Delinquent and had not been deferred, and shall
be entitled to reimbursement therefor in accordance with Section 8.09(a) hereof.

         Section 8.03. SUB-SERVICING AGREEMENTS BETWEEN SERVICER AND
SUB-SERVICERS.

         The Servicer may, with the prior written consent of the Certificate
Insurer and the Trustee, enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements for any servicing
and administration of Home Equity Loans with any institution which is acceptable
to the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee and which, (x) is in compliance with
the laws of each state necessary to enable it to perform its obligations under
such Sub-Servicing Agreement, (y) has experience servicing home equity loans
that are similar to the Home Equity Loans and (z) has equity of not less than
[$5,000,000] (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles). The Servicer shall give written notice to the Trustee, the Owners,
the Certificate Insurer and the Rating Agencies of

                                       88
<PAGE>

the appointment of any Sub-Servicer (and shall receive the confirmation of
the Rating Agencies that such Sub-Servicer shall not result in a withdrawal
or downgrading by any Rating Agency of the rating or the shadow rating of the
Class A Certificates). For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be
deemed to have received payments on Home Equity Loans when any Sub-Servicer
has received such payments. Each Sub-Servicer shall be required to service
the Home Equity Loans in accordance with this Agreement and any such
Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be consistent with and not violate the
provisions of this Agreement. Each Sub-Servicing Agreement shall provide that
the Trustee (if acting as successor Servicer) or any other successor Servicer
shall have the option to terminate such agreement without payment of any fees
if the original Servicer is terminated or resigns. The Servicer shall deliver
to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer copies of all Sub-Servicing
Agreements, and any amendments or modifications thereof promptly upon the
Servicer's execution and delivery of such instrument.

         Section 8.04.  SUCCESSOR SUB-SERVICERS.

         The Servicer shall be entitled to terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement
in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Sub-Servicing Agreement and
to either itself directly service the related Home Equity Loans or enter into a
Sub-Servicing Agreement with a successor Sub-Servicer which qualifies under
Section 8.03.

         Section 8.05.  LIABILITY OF SERVICER; INDEMNIFICATION.

         (a) The Servicer shall not be relieved of its obligations under this
Agreement notwithstanding any Sub-Servicing Agreement or any of the provisions
of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer
and a Sub-Servicer and the Servicer shall be obligated to the same extent and
under the same terms and conditions as if it alone were servicing and
administering the Home Equity Loans. The Servicer shall be entitled to enter
into any agreement with a Sub-Servicer for indemnification of the Servicer by
such Sub-Servicer and nothing contained in such Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be
deemed to limit or modify this Agreement.

         (b) The Servicer agrees to indemnify and hold the Trustee, the
Depositor, the Certificate Insurer and each Owner harmless against any and all
claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs,
judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Trustee, the
Depositor, the Certificate Insurer and any Owner may sustain in any way related
to the failure of the Servicer to perform its duties and service the Home Equity
Loans in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. The Servicer shall
immediately notify the Trustee in writing, the Depositor, the Certificate
Insurer and each Owner if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this
Agreement, and the Servicer shall assume (with the consent of the Trustee and
the Certificate Insurer) the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in
connection therewith, including reasonable counsel fees, and promptly pay,
discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against the
Servicer, the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate Insurer and/or Owner in
respect of such claim. The Trustee shall, in accordance with written
instructions received from the Servicer, reimburse the Servicer only from
amounts otherwise distributable on the Class R Certificates for all amounts
advanced by it pursuant to the preceding sentence, except when a final
nonpayable adjudication determines that the claim

                                       89
<PAGE>

relates directly to the failure of the Servicer to perform its duties in
compliance with the Agreement. The provisions of this Section 8.05(b) shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the outstanding
Certificates.

         Section 8.06. NO CONTRACTUAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SUB-SERVICER, TRUSTEE
OR THE OWNERS.

         Any Sub-Servicing Agreement and any other transactions or services
relating to the Home Equity Loans involving a Sub-Servicer shall be deemed to be
between the Sub-Servicer and the Servicer alone and the Trustee and the Owners
shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims, rights,
obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to any Sub-Servicer except as
set forth in Section 8.07.

         Section 8.07. ASSUMPTION OR TERMINATION OF SUB-SERVICING AGREEMENT BY
TRUSTEE.

         In connection with the assumption of the responsibilities, duties and
liabilities and of the authority, power and rights of the Servicer hereunder by
the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.20 or another successor Servicer, it is
understood and agreed that the Servicer's rights and obligations under any
Sub-Servicing Agreement then in force between the Servicer and a Sub-Servicer
shall be assumed simultaneously by the Trustee or another successor Servicer
without act or deed on part of the Trustee; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee
(if acting as successor Servicer) or any other successor Servicer may terminate
the Sub-Servicer as provided in Section 8.03.

         The Servicer shall, upon the reasonable request of the Trustee, but at
the expense of the Servicer, deliver to the assuming party documents and records
relating to each Sub-Servicing Agreement and an accounting of amounts collected
and held by it and otherwise use its best reasonable efforts to effect the
orderly and efficient transfer of the Sub-Servicing Agreements to the assuming
party.

         Section 8.08.  PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST ACCOUNT.

         (a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain at one or more
Designated Depository Institutions the Principal and Interest Account, which
shall be an Eligible Account. The Principal and Interest Account shall be
identified on the records of the Designated Depository Institution as
follows: ________________, as Trustee on behalf of [MBIA Insurance Corporation]
and the Owners of the Centex Home Equity Loan Trust 2000-__ Home Equity Loan
Asset-Backed Certificates. If the institution at any time holding the
Principal and Interest Account ceases to be eligible as a Designated
Depository Institution hereunder, then the Servicer shall immediately be
required to name a successor institution meeting the requirements for a
Designated Depository Institution hereunder. If the Servicer fails to name
such a successor institution, then the Principal and Interest Account shall
thenceforth be held as a trust account with a qualifying Designated
Depository Institution selected by the Trustee. The Servicer shall notify the
Trustee, the Certificate Insurer and the Owners if there is a change in the
name, account number or institution holding the Principal and Interest
Account.

                                       90
<PAGE>

         Subject to Subsection (c) below, the Servicer shall deposit all
receipts required pursuant to Subsection (c) below and related to the Home
Equity Loans to the Principal and Interest Account on a daily basis (but no
later than the second Business Day after receipt).

         (b) All funds in the Principal and Interest Account shall be held (i)
uninvested up to the amount insured by the FDIC or (ii) invested in Eligible
Investments. Any investments of funds in the Principal and Interest Account
shall mature or be withdrawable at par on or prior to the immediately succeeding
Monthly Remittance Date. The Principal and Interest Account shall be held in
trust in the name of the Trust for the benefit of the Owners. The Trust shall be
divided into two separate sub-trusts; one for Group I and any Trust assets
allocable to such Group I and the other for Group II and any Trust assets
allocable to such Group II. Any investment earnings on funds held in the
Principal and Interest Account shall be for the account of the Servicer and may
only be withdrawn from the Principal and Interest Account by the Servicer
immediately following the remittance of the Monthly Remittance Amount by the
Servicer in accordance with the terms hereof. Any investment losses on amounts
held in the Principal and Interest Account shall be for the account of the
Servicer and promptly upon the realization of such loss shall be contributed by
the Servicer to the Principal and Interest Account. Any references herein to
amounts on deposit in the Principal and Interest Account shall refer to amounts
net of such investment earnings.

         (c) The Servicer shall deposit to the Principal and Interest Account no
later than the second Business Day after receipt, all principal collected and
interest due on the Home Equity Loans (net of the Servicing Fee related to such
Home Equity Loans) on and after the Cut-Off Date and the Replacement Cut-Off
Date, as applicable, including any Prepayments and Net Liquidation Proceeds,
other recoveries or amounts related to the Home Equity Loans received by the
Servicer and any income from REO Properties, but net of (i) Net Liquidation
Proceeds to the extent such Net Liquidation Proceeds exceed the sum of (A) the
Loan Balance of the related Home Equity Loan immediately prior to liquidation,
plus (B) accrued and unpaid interest on such Home Equity Loan (net of the
related Servicing Fee) and (C) any unrecovered Cram Down Losses, (ii)
reimbursements for unreimbursed Delinquency Advances (but solely from amounts
received on the related Home Equity Loan) and (iii) reimbursements for amounts
deposited in the Principal and Interest Account representing payments of
principal and/or interest on a Note by a Mortgagor which are subsequently
returned by a depository institution as unpaid.

         (d) The Servicer may make withdrawals from the Principal and Interest
Account, with respect to each Home Equity Loan Group, only in the following
priority and for the following purposes:

                  (A) on each Monthly Remittance Date, to pay itself the related
                      Servicing Fees to the extent such Servicing Fees are not
                      retained by the Servicer;

                  (B) to withdraw investment earnings on amounts on deposit in
                      the Principal and Interest Account;

                  (C) to withdraw amounts that have been deposited to the
                      Principal and Interest Account in error;

                                       91
<PAGE>

                  (D) to reimburse itself pursuant to Section 8.09(a) for
                      unrecovered Delinquency Advances and unrecovered
                      Servicing Advances (in each case, solely from amounts
                      recovered on the related Home Equity Loan);

                  (E) Nonrecoverable Advances; and

                  (F) to clear and terminate the Principal and Interest Account
                      following the termination of the Trust pursuant to
                      Article IX.

                  (i) The Servicer shall (a) remit to the Trustee for deposit in
         the Certificate Account by wire transfer, or otherwise make funds
         available in immediately available funds, without duplication, the
         Monthly Remittance Amount allocable to a Remittance Period not later
         than the related Monthly Remittance Date, and (b) on each Monthly
         Remittance Date, deliver to the Trustee, the Depositor and the
         Certificate Insurer, a monthly servicing report, with respect to each
         Home Equity Loan Group, containing (without limitation) the following
         information: principal and interest collected in respect of the Home
         Equity Loans, scheduled principal and interest that was due on the Home
         Equity Loans, relevant information with respect to Liquidated Loans, if
         any, summary and detailed delinquency reports, Liquidation Proceeds and
         other similar information concerning the servicing of the Home Equity
         Loans and any other information requested by the Certificate Insurer
         (including, without limitation, a liquidation report with respect to
         each Liquidated Loan). In addition, the Servicer shall inform the
         Trustee and the Certificate Insurer on each Monthly Remittance Date,
         with respect to each Home Equity Loan Group, of the amounts of any Loan
         Purchase Prices or Substitution Amounts so remitted during the related
         Remittance Period, and of the Loan Balance of the Home Equity Loan
         having the largest Loan Balance as of such date.

                  (ii) The Servicer shall provide to the Trustee the information
         described in Section 8.08(d)(i)(b) and in Section 7.09(b) to enable the
         Trustee to perform its reporting requirements under Section 7.09 and to
         make the allocations and disbursements set forth in Sections 7.02 and
         7.03.

         Section 8.09.  DELINQUENCY ADVANCES AND SERVICING ADVANCES.

         (a) On or before each Monthly Remittance Date, the Servicer shall be
required to remit to the Trustee for deposit to the Certificate Account out of
the Servicer's own funds or from collections on any Home Equity Loans that are
not required to be distributed on the Distribution Date occurring during the
month in which such remittance is made (all or any portion of such amount to be
replaced on future Monthly Remittance Dates to the extent required for
distribution) any Delinquent payment of interest with respect to each Delinquent
Home Equity Loan, which payment was not received on or prior to the last day of
the related Remittance Period. Such amounts of the Servicer's own funds so
deposited are "Delinquency Advances".

         The Servicer shall be permitted to reimburse itself on any Business Day
for any Delinquency Advances paid from the Servicer's own funds, from late
collections on the related Home Equity Loan or as provided in Section 7.03(b).

                                       92
<PAGE>

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Servicer
determines in its reasonable business judgment in accordance with the servicing
standards set out herein that any proposed Delinquency Advance would not be
recoverable, the Servicer shall not be required to make Delinquency Advances
with respect to such Home Equity Loan. To the extent that the Servicer
previously has made Delinquency Advances with respect to a Home Equity Loan that
the Servicer subsequently determines is a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Servicer
shall be entitled to reimbursement for such aggregate Nonrecoverable Advances
from collections on any Home Equity Loan on deposit in the Principal and
Interest Account. The Servicer shall give written notice of such determination
as to why such amount would not be recoverable to the Trustee and the
Certificate Insurer; the Trustee shall promptly furnish a copy of such notice to
the Owners of the Class R Certificates; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the Servicer
shall be entitled to recover any unreimbursed Delinquency Advances from
Liquidation Proceeds for the related Home Equity Loan.

         (b) The Servicer will pay all "out-of-pocket" costs and expenses
incurred in the performance of its servicing obligations, including, but not
limited to, (i) Preservation Expenses, (ii) the cost of any enforcement or
judicial proceedings, including foreclosures, (iii) the cost of the management
and liquidation of REO Property, (iv) advances required by Section 8.13(a),
except to the extent that such amounts are determined by the Servicer in its
reasonable business judgment not to be recoverable and (v) expenses incurred
pursuant to Section 8.22. Such costs will constitute "Servicing Advances". The
Servicer may recover a Servicing Advance (x) from the Mortgagors to the extent
permitted by the Home Equity Loans or, if not theretofore recovered from the
Mortgagor on whose behalf such Servicing Advance was made, from Liquidation
Proceeds realized upon the liquidation of the related Home Equity Loan and (y)
as provided in Section 7.03(b)(xi). The Servicer shall be entitled to recover
the Servicing Advances from the Liquidation Proceeds on the related Home Equity
Loan prior to the payment of the Liquidation Proceeds to any other party to this
Agreement. In no case may the Servicer recover Servicing Advances from the
principal and interest payments on any other Home Equity Loan except as provided
in Section 7.03(b)(xi).

         Section 8.10.  COMPENSATING INTEREST; REPURCHASE OF HOME EQUITY LOANS.

         (a) If any Prepayment of a Home Equity Loan occurs during any calendar
month, any shortfall between (x) the interest collected from the Mortgagor in
connection with such payoff, and (y) the full months interest at the Coupon Rate
that would be due on the related Due Date for such Home Equity Loan
("Compensating Interest") (but not in excess of the aggregate Servicing Fee for
the related Remittance Period) shall be deposited by the Servicer to the
Principal and Interest Account (or if such difference is an excess, the Servicer
shall retain such excess) on the next succeeding Monthly Remittance Date and
shall be included in the Monthly Remittance Amount to be made available to the
Trustee on such Monthly Remittance Date. The Servicer may recover any
unreimbursed payments of Compensating Interest as provided in Section
7.03(b)(xi).

         (b) Subject to the clause (c) below, the Servicer has the right and the
option, but not the obligation, to purchase for its own account any Home Equity
Loan which becomes a 60-Day Delinquent Loan, or any Home Equity Loan as to which
enforcement proceedings have been

                                       93
<PAGE>

brought by the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.13; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Servicer may not purchase any such Home Equity Loan unless the Servicer has
delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer at the Servicer's
expense, an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the Certificate Insurer and to
the Trustee to the effect that such a purchase would not constitute a
Prohibited Transaction for the Trust or otherwise subject the Trust to tax
and would not jeopardize the status of REMIC I or REMIC II as REMICs. Any
such Home Equity Loan so purchased shall be purchased by the Servicer on or
prior to a Monthly Remittance Date at a purchase price equal to the Loan
Purchase Price thereof, which purchase price shall be deposited in the
Principal and Interest Account.

         (c) If a Home Equity Loan to be purchased by the Servicer pursuant to
clause (b) above, is the greatest number of days Delinquent of all then
Delinquent Home Equity Loans (including Home Equity Loans relating to REO
Property), the Servicer may purchase such Home Equity Loan without having first
notified the Certificate Insurer of such purchase. In all other cases, the
Servicer must notify the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee, in writing, of its
intent to purchase a Home Equity Loan and the Servicer may not purchase such
Home Equity Loan without the written consent of the Certificate Insurer.

         (d) The Net Liquidation Proceeds from the disposition of any REO
Property shall be deposited in the Principal and Interest Account and remitted
to the Trustee as part of the Monthly Remittance Amount remitted by the Servicer
to the Trustee.

         Section 8.11.  MAINTENANCE OF INSURANCE.

         (a) (i) The Servicer shall cause to be maintained with respect to each
Home Equity Loan a hazard insurance policy with a carrier generally acceptable
to the Servicer that provides for fire and extended coverage, and which provides
for a recovery by the Trust of insurance proceeds relating to such Home Equity
Loan in an amount not less than the least of (A) the outstanding principal
balance of the Home Equity Loan (plus the related senior lien loan, if any), (B)
the minimum amount required to compensate for damage or loss on a replacement
cost basis and (C) the full insurable value of the premises. The Servicer shall
maintain the insurance policies required hereunder in the name of the mortgagee,
its successors and assigns, and shall be named as loss payee. The policies shall
require the insurer to provide the mortgagee with 30 days' notice prior to any
cancellation or as otherwise required by law. (ii) As an alternative to
maintaining a hazard insurance policy with respect to each Home Equity Loan as
described in Clause (i), the Servicer may maintain a blanket hazard insurance
policy or policies if the insurer or insurers of such policies are rated
investment grade by Moody's and Standard & Poor's.

         (b) If the Home Equity Loan at the time of origination (or if required
by federal law, at any time thereafter) relates to a Property in an area
identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as
having special flood hazards, the Servicer will cause to be maintained with
respect thereto a flood insurance policy in a form meeting the requirements of
the then current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration with a
carrier generally acceptable to the Servicer in an amount representing coverage,
and which provides for a recovery by the Trust of insurance proceeds relating to
such Home Equity Loan of not less than the least of (i) the outstanding
principal balance of the Home Equity Loan (plus the related senior lien loan,

                                       94
<PAGE>

if any), (ii) the minimum amount required to compensate for damage or loss on
a replacement cost basis and (iii) the maximum amount of insurance that is
available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. The Servicer shall
indemnify the Trust and the Certificate Insurer out of the Servicer's own
funds for any loss to the Trust or the Certificate Insurer resulting from the
Servicer's failure to advance premiums for such insurance required by this
Section when so permitted by the terms of the Mortgage as to which such loss
relates.

         (c) Amounts collected by the Servicer under any Insurance Policies
shall be deposited into the Principal and Interest Account.

         Section 8.12. DUE-ON-SALE CLAUSES; ASSUMPTION AND SUBSTITUTION
AGREEMENTS.

         When a Property has been or is about to be conveyed by the Mortgagor,
the Servicer shall (except as provided below), to the extent it has knowledge of
such conveyance or prospective conveyance, exercise its rights to accelerate the
maturity of the related Home Equity Loan under any "due-on-sale" clause
contained in the related Mortgage or Note; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Servicer
shall not exercise any such right if the "due-on-sale" clause, in the reasonable
belief of the Servicer, is not enforceable under applicable law, or the
Servicer, in a manner consistent with reasonable commercial practice, and only
if the Servicer reasonably believes assumption by the purchaser would not
materially and adversely affect the interests of the Owners or of the
Certificate Insurer, permits the purchaser of the related Property to assume
such Home Equity Loan. An Opinion of Counsel, provided at the expense of the
Servicer, to the foregoing effect shall conclusively establish the
reasonableness of such belief. In such event, the Servicer shall enter into an
assumption and modification agreement with the person to whom such property has
been or is about to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable
under the Note and, unless prohibited by applicable law or the Mortgage
documents, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. If the foregoing is not
permitted under applicable law, the Servicer is authorized to enter into a
substitution of liability agreement with such person, pursuant to which the
original Mortgagor is released from liability and such person is substituted as
Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Note; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that to the
extent any such substitution of liability agreement would be delivered by the
Servicer outside of its usual procedures for home equity loans held in its own
portfolio the Servicer shall, prior to executing and delivering such agreement,
obtain the prior written consent of the Certificate Insurer. The Home Equity
Loan, as assumed, shall conform in all material respects to the requirements,
representations and warranties of this Agreement. The Servicer shall notify the
Trustee in writing that any such assumption or substitution agreement has been
completed by forwarding to the Custodian on the Trustee's behalf the original
copy of such assumption or substitution agreement (indicating the File to which
it relates) which copy shall be added by the Trustee or by the Custodian on the
Trustee's behalf to the related File and which shall, for all purposes, be
considered a part of such File to the same extent as all other documents and
instruments constituting a part thereof. The Servicer shall be responsible for
recording any such assumption or substitution agreements. In connection with any
such assumption or substitution agreement, no material term of the Home Equity
Loan (including, without limitation, the required monthly payment on the related
Home Equity Loan, the stated maturity, the outstanding principal amount or the
Coupon Rate) shall be changed nor shall any required monthly payments of
principal or interest be deferred or forgiven. Any fee collected by the Servicer
or the Sub-Servicer for consenting to any such conveyance or

                                       95
<PAGE>

entering into an assumption or substitution agreement shall be retained by or
paid to the Servicer as additional servicing compensation.

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

         Section 8.13. REALIZATION UPON DEFAULTED HOME EQUITY LOANS; WORKOUT OF
HOME EQUITY LOANS.

         (a) The Servicer shall foreclose upon or otherwise comparably effect
the ownership in the name of the Trustee on behalf of the Trust of Properties
relating to defaulted Home Equity Loans as to which no satisfactory
arrangements can be made for collection of Delinquent payments and which the
Servicer has not purchased pursuant to Section 8.10(b). In connection with
such foreclosure or other conversion, the Servicer shall exercise such of the
rights and powers vested in it hereunder, and use the same degree of care and
skill in their exercise or use, as prudent mortgage lenders would exercise or
use under the circumstances in the conduct of their own affairs and
consistent with the servicing standards set forth in the FNMA Guide,
including, but not limited to, advancing funds for the payment of taxes,
amounts due with respect to Senior Liens, and insurance premiums. Any amounts
so advanced shall constitute "Servicing Advances" within the meaning of
Section 8.09(b) hereof. The Servicer shall sell any REO Property within 35
months from the close of the taxable year of its acquisition by the Trust, at
such price as the Servicer in good faith deems necessary to comply with this
covenant unless the Servicer obtains for the Certificate Insurer and the
Trustee, an Opinion of Counsel (the expense of which opinion shall be a
Servicing Advance) experienced in federal income tax matters acceptable to
the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee, addressed to the Certificate
Insurer, the Trustee and the Servicer, to the effect that the holding by the
Trust of such REO Property for any greater period will not result in the
imposition of taxes on "Prohibited Transactions" of the Trust or either REMIC
as defined in Section 860F of the Code or cause either REMIC to fail to
qualify as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions at any time that any
Certificates are Outstanding. Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing
provisions, the Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO
Property for the Owners solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and
sale in a manner which does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as
"foreclosure property within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or
result in the receipt by either REMIC created hereunder of any "income from
non-permitted assets" within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code
or any "net income from foreclosure property" which is subject to taxation
under the REMIC Provisions. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO
Property, the Servicer shall either itself or through an agent selected by
the Servicer protect and conserve such REO Property in the same manner and to
such extent as is customary in the locality where such REO Property is
located and may, incident to its conservation and protection of the interests
of the Owners, rent the same, or any part thereof, as the Servicer deems to
be in the best interest of the Owners for the period prior to the sale of
such REO Property. The Servicer shall take into account the existence of any
hazardous substances, hazardous wastes or solid wastes, as such terms are
defined in the Comprehensive Environmental Response

                                       96

<PAGE>

Compensation and Liability Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of
1976, or other federal, state or local environmental legislation, on a
Property in determining whether to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably
convert the ownership of such Property. If the Servicer has actual knowledge
of any environmental or hazardous waste risk with respect to the Property
that the Servicer is contemplating acquiring in foreclosure or deed in lieu
of foreclosure, the Servicer will cause an environmental inspection of the
Property in accordance with the servicing standards set forth in this
Agreement. The Servicer shall not take any such action with respect to any
Property known by the Servicer to contain such wastes or substances or to be
within one mile of the site of such wastes or substances, without the prior
written consent of the Certificate Insurer.

         (b) The Servicer shall determine, with respect to each defaulted
Home Equity Loan, when it has recovered, whether through trustee's sale,
foreclosure sale or otherwise, all amounts it expects to recover from or on
account of such defaulted Home Equity Loan, whereupon such Home Equity Loan
shall become a "Liquidated Loan" and the Servicer shall promptly submit a
liquidation report to the Certificate Insurer in form acceptable to the
Certificate Insurer.

         (c) The Servicer shall not agree to any modification, waiver or
amendment of any provision of any Home Equity Loan unless, in the Servicer's
good faith judgment, such modification, waiver or amendment would minimize
the loss that might otherwise be experienced with respect to such Home Equity
Loan and only in the event of a payment default with respect to such Home
Equity Loan or in the event that a payment default with respect to such Home
Equity Loan is reasonably foreseeable by the Servicer; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that no such modification, waiver or amendment shall extend the maturity date
of such Home Equity Loan beyond the Remittance Period related to the Final
Scheduled Distribution Date of the latest Class of Class A Certificates
remaining in the Trust. Notwithstanding anything set out in this Section
8.13(c) or elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer shall be
permitted to modify, waive or amend any provision of a Home Equity Loan if
required by statute or a court of competent jurisdiction to do so.

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

         Section 8.14.  TRUSTEE TO COOPERATE; RELEASE OF FILES.

         (a) Upon the payment in full of any Home Equity Loan (including any
liquidation of such Home Equity Loan through foreclosure or otherwise), or
the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be
escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Servicer shall deliver
to the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, a written request of the Servicer
signed by an Authorized Officer which states the purpose of the release of a
File. Upon receipt of such written request, the Custodian, on behalf of the
Trustee shall promptly release the related File, in trust, in its reasonable
discretion to (i) the Servicer, (ii) an escrow agent or (iii) any employee,
agent or attorney of the Trustee. Upon any such payment in full, or the
receipt of such

                                       97

<PAGE>

notification that such funds have been placed in escrow, the Servicer is
authorized to give, as attorney-in-fact for the Trustee and the mortgagee
under the Mortgage which secured the Note, an instrument of satisfaction (or
assignment of Mortgage without recourse) regarding the Property relating to
such Mortgage, which instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case
may be, shall be delivered to the Person or Persons entitled thereto against
receipt therefor of payment in full, it being understood and agreed that no
expense incurred in connection with such instrument of satisfaction or
assignment, as the case may be, shall be chargeable to the Principal and
Interest Account or to the Trustee.

         (b) The Servicer shall have the right (upon receiving the prior
written consent of the Certificate Insurer) to accept applications of
Mortgagors for consent to (i) partial releases of Mortgages, (ii) alterations
and (iii) removal, demolition or division of properties subject to Mortgages.
No application for approval shall be considered by the Servicer unless: (x)
the provisions of the related Note and Mortgage have been complied with; (y)
the Loan-to-Value Ratio and debt-to-income ratio after any release does not
exceed the Loan-to-Value Ratio and debt-to-income ratio of such Note on the
Cut-Off Date, and any increase in the Loan-to-Value Ratio shall not exceed
____% unless approved in writing by the Certificate Insurer; and (z) the lien
priority of the related Mortgage is not affected. Upon receipt by the Trustee
of an Officer's Certificate executed on behalf of the Servicer setting forth
the action proposed to be taken in respect of a particular Home Equity Loan
and certifying that the criteria set forth in the immediately preceding
sentence have been satisfied, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the
Servicer the consent or partial release so requested by the Servicer. A
proposed form of consent or partial release, as the case may be, shall
accompany any Officer's Certificate delivered by the Servicer pursuant to
this paragraph. The Servicer shall notify the Certificate Insurer and the
Rating Agencies if an application is approved under clause (y) above without
approval in writing by the Certificate Insurer.

         (c) From time to time and as appropriate in the servicing of any
Home Equity Loan, including, without limitation, foreclosure or other
comparable conversion of a Home Equity Loan or collection under any
applicable Insurance Policy, the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall
release the related File to the Servicer, promptly upon a written request of
the Servicer signed by an Authorized Officer, which states the purpose of the
release of a File; provided, however, that no more than ____% of the
outstanding Home Equity Loans (by number) shall be released to the Servicer
at any time. Such receipt shall obligate the Servicer to return the File to
the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, when the need therefore by the
Servicer no longer exists.

         (d) In all cases where the Servicer directs the Custodian, on behalf
of the Trustee, to sign any document or to release a File within a particular
period of time, the Servicer shall notify an Authorized Officer of the
Trustee by telephone of such need and the Trustee shall thereon use its best
efforts to comply with the Servicer's needs, but in any event will comply
within two Business Days of such request.

         (e) No costs associated with the procedures described in this Section
8.14 shall be an expense of the Trust.

                                      98

<PAGE>

         Section 8.15.  SERVICING COMPENSATION.

         As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Servicer shall be
entitled to retain the amount of the Servicing Fee with respect to each Home
Equity Loan Group. Additional servicing compensation in the form of
prepayment charges, release fees, bad check charges, assumption fees, late
payment charges, prepayment penalties, or any other servicing-related fees,
Net Liquidation Proceeds not required to be deposited in the Principal and
Interest Account pursuant to Section 8.08(c)(i) and similar items may, to the
extent collected from Mortgagors, be retained by the Servicer, unless a
successor Servicer is appointed pursuant to Section 8.20 hereof, in which
case the successor Servicer shall be entitled to such fees as are agreed upon
by the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer and the successor Servicer.

         The right to receive the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole
or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Servicer's
responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement.

         Section 8.16.  ANNUAL STATEMENT AS TO COMPLIANCE.

         The Servicer, at its own expense, will deliver to the Trustee, the
Certificate Insurer, the Depositor, and the Rating Agencies, on or before
July 31 of each year, commencing in 20__, an Officer's Certificate stating,
as to each signer thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the
Servicer during such preceding calendar year and of performance under this
Agreement has been made under such officers' supervision, and (ii) to the
best of such officers' knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has
fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement for such year, or, if
there has been a default in the fulfillment of all such obligations,
specifying each such default known to such officers and the nature and status
thereof including the steps being taken by the Servicer to remedy such
default.

         The Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, the Depositor, the
Certificate Insurer and the Rating Agencies, promptly after having obtained
knowledge thereof but in no event later than five Business Days thereafter,
written notice by means of an Officer's Certificate of any event which with
the giving of notice or the lapse of time would become a Servicer Termination
Event.

         Section 8.17. ANNUAL INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS' REPORTS.

         On or before July 31 of each year, commencing in 20___, the
Servicer, at its own expense (or if the Trustee is then acting as Servicer,
at the expense of the Seller), shall cause to be delivered to the Trustee,
the Certificate Insurer, the Depositor, and the Rating Agencies a letter or
letters of a firm of independent, nationally recognized certified public
accountants reasonably acceptable to the Certificate Insurer stating that
such firm has examined the Servicer's overall servicing operations in
accordance with the requirements of the Uniform Single Attestation Program
for Mortgage Bankers, and stating such firm's conclusions relating thereto.
In the event such firm requires the Trustee to agree to the procedures
performed by such firm, the Servicer shall direct the Trustee in writing to
so agree; it being understood and agreed that the Trustee will deliver such
letter of agreement in conclusive reliance upon the direction of the

                                      99

<PAGE>

Servicer, and the Trustee makes no independent inquiry or investigation as
to, and shall have no obligation or liability in respect of, the sufficiency,
validity, or correctness of such procedures.

         Section 8.18. ACCESS TO CERTAIN DOCUMENTATION AND INFORMATION REGARDING
THE HOME EQUITY LOANS.

         The Servicer shall provide to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer
access to the documentation regarding the Home Equity Loans and the Trust, 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.

         Upon any change in the format of the computer tape maintained by the
Servicer in respect of the Home Equity Loans, the Servicer shall deliver a copy
of such computer tape to the Trustee and in addition shall provide a copy of
such computer tape to the Trustee, and the Certificate Insurer at such other
times as the Trustee or the Certificate Insurer may reasonably request.

         Section 8.19.  ASSIGNMENT OF AGREEMENT.

         Other than with respect to entering into Sub-Servicing Agreements
pursuant to Section 8.03 hereof, the Servicer may not assign its obligations
under this Agreement, in whole or in part, unless it shall have first obtained
the written consent of the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer, which such
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any assignee
must meet the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 8.20(h) hereof for a
successor servicer.

         Section 8.20. REMOVAL OF SERVICER; RETENTION OF SERVICER; RESIGNATION
OF SERVICER.

         (a) The Certificate Insurer or the Trustee (with the prior written
consent of the Certificate Insurer) may remove the Servicer upon the occurrence
of any of the following events (each a "Servicer Termination Event"):

                  (i) The Servicer shall (I) apply for or consent to the
         appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or custodian or similar
         entity with respect to itself or its property, (II) admit in writing

         it in any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceeding or (VI)
         take corporate action for the purpose of effecting any of the
         foregoing; or

                  (ii) If without the application, approval or consent of the
         Servicer, a proceeding shall be instituted in any court of competent
         jurisdiction, under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency,
         reorganization or relief of debtors, seeking in respect of the Servicer

         Servicer or of all or any substantial part of its assets, or other like
         relief in respect thereof under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, and,
         if such proceeding is being contested by the Servicer in good faith,
         the same shall (A) result in the entry of an order for relief or any
         such adjudication or appointment or (B) continue undismissed or pending
         and unstayed for any period of seventy-five (75) consecutive days; or

                  (iii) The Servicer shall fail to perform any one or more of
         its obligations hereunder and shall continue in default thereof for a
         period of thirty (30) days (one (1) Business Day in the case of a delay
         in making a payment or deposit required of the Servicer under this
         Agreement) after the earlier of (a) actual knowledge of an officer of
         the Servicer or (b) receipt of notice from the Trustee or the
         Certificate Insurer of said failure; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the
         Servicer can demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of the
         Certificate Insurer that it is diligently pursuing remedial action,
         then the cure period may be extended with the written approval of the
         Certificate Insurer; or

                  (iv) The Servicer shall fail to cure any breach of any of its
         representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.02 or in the

         unremedied for a period of sixty (60) days after the earlier of the
         Servicer's discovery or receipt of notice thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
         that if the Servicer can demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of
         the Certificate Insurer that it is diligently pursuing remedial action,
         then the cure period may be extended with the written approval of the
         Certificate Insurer; or

                  (v) The merger, consolidation or other combination of the
         Servicer with or into any other entity, unless (1) the Servicer or an
         Affiliate of the Servicer is the surviving entity of such combination
         or (2) the surviving entity (A) is servicing at least $__________ of
         home equity loans that are similar to the Home Equity Loans, (B) has
         Tangible Net Worth of not less than $___________ (as determined in

         consented to by the Certificate Insurer (such consent not to be
         unreasonably withheld) and (D) agrees to assume the Servicer's
         obligations hereunder; or

                  (vi) The failure of the Servicer to satisfy the Servicer
         Termination Test; or

                  (vii) The Servicer shall be declared in default of its credit
         facility by its credit facility provider, which default, if left
         uncured, would result in termination or acceleration of amounts owed
         thereunder; or

                  (viii) Centex Corporation or its successors shall fail to own,
         directly or indirectly, at least ___% of the Servicer unless (a) the
         Servicer shall be rated at least investment grade by each Rating Agency
         or (b) the Servicer shall have at all times committed financing
         capacity in a total amount of at least three times the Servicer's

                                      101

<PAGE>

         average loan originations funded during the immediately preceding three
         calendar months.

         (b) Upon the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event, the
Servicer shall continue to act as servicer under this Agreement until removed
as set forth in this Section 8.20 and a successor Servicer has assumed the
servicing obligations. After the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event,
the Certificate Insurer or the Trustee (with the prior written consent of the
Certificate Insurer) may remove the Servicer by written notice to the
Servicer. Such termination shall be effective on the date specified in such
notice, provided that a successor Servicer or the Trustee has assumed the
servicing obligations. Upon the effective date of termination of the
Servicer, the Trustee (or another successor Servicer appointed by the
Certificate Insurer) shall assume the servicing obligations hereunder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto agree that the Trustee, in
its capacity as successor Servicer, immediately will assume all of the
obligations of the Servicer to make Delinquency Advances and the Trustee will
assume the other duties of the Servicer as soon as practicable, but in no
event later than 90 days after the Trustee becomes successor Servicer
pursuant to the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Trustee, in its capacity as successor Servicer, shall not be responsible for
the lack of information and or documents that it cannot obtain through
reasonable efforts. The Certificate Insurer may appoint a successor Servicer
other than the Trustee. Until a successor Servicer has been appointed by the
Certificate Insurer, the Trustee shall be the successor Servicer in all
respects without further action, and all authority and power of the Servicer
under this agreement shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee on and after
the effective date of termination. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, in no event shall the Trustee 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
therein.

         (c)      Reserved

         (d) The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties
hereby imposed on it, except upon (i) determination that its duties hereunder
are no longer permissible under applicable law or are in material conflict by
reason of applicable law with any other activities carried on by it, the other
activities of the Servicer so causing such a conflict being of a type and nature
carried on by the Servicer at the date of this Agreement or (ii) written consent
of the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee. Any such determination under clause
(i) shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the Trustee and
the Certificate Insurer at the expense of the Servicer to such effect which
shall be delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer.

         (e) No removal or resignation of the Servicer shall become effective
until the Trustee or a successor Servicer shall have assumed the Servicer's
responsibilities and obligations in accordance with this Section.

         (f) Upon removal or resignation of the Servicer, the Servicer at its
own expense also shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to a
successor servicer or the Trustee all the books and records (including,
without limitation, records kept in electronic form) that the Servicer has
maintained for the Home Equity Loans, including all tax bills, assessment
notices, insurance

                                      102

<PAGE>

premium notices and all other documents as well as all original documents
then in the Servicer's possession.

         (g) Any collections due to the Trust then being held by the Servicer
prior to its removal and any collections received by the Servicer after removal
or resignation shall be endorsed by it to the Trustee and remitted directly and
immediately to the Trustee or the successor Servicer.

         (h) Upon removal or resignation of the Servicer, the Trustee (A)
may, unless the Certificate Insurer has appointed a successor Servicer other
than the Trustee, solicit bids for a successor servicer as described below
and (B) until such time as another successor Servicer is appointed by the
Certificate Insurer, shall assume the duties and obligations of the Servicer
hereunder. The Trustee agrees to act as Servicer during the solicitation
process and shall assume all duties and obligations of the Servicer. The
Certificate Insurer may appoint a successor Servicer other than the Trustee.
If the Certificate Insurer fails to appoint a successor Servicer, the Trustee
shall, if it is unable to obtain a qualifying bid and is prevented by law
from acting as Servicer, appoint, or petition a court of competent
jurisdiction to appoint, any housing and home finance institution, bank or
mortgage servicing institution which has been designated as an approved
seller-servicer by FNMA or FHLMC for first and second home equity loans and
having equity of not less than $_________ (or such lower level as may be
acceptable to the Certificate Insurer), as determined in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and acceptable to the Certificate
Insurer as the successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all
or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer
hereunder. The compensation of any successor Servicer (other than the Trustee
in its capacity as successor Servicer) so appointed shall be the amount
agreed to between the successor Servicer, the Certificate Insurer and the
Trustee (up to a maximum of ___% per annum on the outstanding principal
balance of each Home Equity Loan), together with the other servicing
compensation in the form of assumption fees, late payment charges or
otherwise as provided in Sections 8.08 and 8.15; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if
the Trustee becomes the successor Servicer it shall receive as its
compensation the same compensation paid to the Servicer immediately prior to
the Servicer's removal or resignation; PROVIDED, FURTHER, HOWEVER, that the
predecessor Servicer agrees to pay to the Trustee or other successor Servicer
at such time that it becomes such successor Servicer a set-up fee of
[twenty-five dollars ($25)] for each Home Equity Loan then included in the
Trust Estate. The amount payable in excess of [twenty-five dollars ($25)] per
Home Equity Loan, if any, shall be payable to the successor Servicer and
reimbursable pursuant to Section 7.03(b)(x) hereof. The Trustee shall be
obligated to serve as successor Servicer whether or not the fee described in
this section is paid by the Servicer, but shall in any event be entitled to
receive, and to enforce payment of, such fee from the Servicer.

         (i) In the event the Trustee elects to solicit bids as provided above,
the Trustee shall solicit, by public announcement, bids from housing and home
finance institutions, banks and mortgage servicing institutions meeting the
qualifications set forth above. Such public announcement shall specify that the
successor Servicer shall be entitled to servicing compensation in accordance
with clause (h) above, together with the other servicing compensation in the
form of assumption fees, late payment charges or otherwise as provided in
Sections 8.08 and 8.15. Within thirty days after any such public announcement,
the Trustee shall

                                      103

<PAGE>

negotiate and effect the sale, transfer and assignment of the servicing
rights and responsibilities hereunder to the qualified party submitting the
highest satisfactory bid as to the price it will pay to obtain servicing
provided that the Certificate Insurer has given its prior written consent.
The Trustee shall deduct from any sum received by the Trustee 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. After
such deductions, the remainder of such sum less any amounts due the Trustee
or the Trust from the Servicer shall be paid by the Trustee to the
predecessor Servicer at the time of such sale, transfer and assignment to the
Servicer's successor.

         (j) The Trustee and such successor Servicer shall take such action,
consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such
succession, including the notification to all Mortgagors of the transfer of
servicing. The predecessor Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee and
any successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the predecessor
Servicer's servicing responsibilities and rights hereunder and shall promptly
provide the Trustee or such successor Servicer, as applicable, all documents
and records reasonably requested by it to enable it to assume the Servicer's
functions hereunder and shall promptly also transfer to the Trustee or such
successor Servicer, as applicable, all amounts which then have been or should
have been deposited in the Principal and Interest Account by the Servicer or
which are thereafter received with respect to the Home Equity Loans. Any
amounts and documents which are property of the Trust held by the predecessor
Servicer shall be held in trust on behalf of the Trustee until transferred to
the successor Servicer or Trustee. Neither the Trustee 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. If the Servicer
resigns or is replaced hereunder, the Servicer agrees to reimburse the Trust,
the Owners and the Certificate Insurer for the costs and expenses associated
with the transfer of servicing to the replacement Servicer, but subject to a
maximum reimbursement to all such parties in the amount of
[twenty-five dollars ($25)] for each Home Equity Loan then included in the
Trust Estate. The amount payable in excess of [twenty-five dollars ($25)] per
Home Equity Loan, if any, shall be payable to the successor Servicer and
reimbursable pursuant to Section 7.03(b)(x) hereof.

         (k) The Trustee or any other successor Servicer, upon assuming the
duties of Servicer hereunder, shall immediately (i) record all assignments of
Home Equity Loans not previously recorded in the name of the Trustee pursuant
to Section 3.05(b)(ii) as a result of an Opinion of Counsel and (ii) make all
Delinquency Advances and Compensating Interest payments and deposit them to
the Principal and Interest Account which the Servicer has theretofore failed
to remit with respect to the Home Equity Loans.

         (l) The Servicer which is being removed or is resigning shall give
notice to the Mortgagors, to Moody's and to Standard & Poor's of the transfer of
the servicing to the successor.

         (m) The Trustee shall give notice to the Certificate Insurer, the
Depositor, the Owners, the Trustee, the Seller, Moody's and Standard & Poor's of
the occurrence of any event described in paragraphs (a) above of which the
Trustee is aware.

                                       104

<PAGE>

         (n) Upon appointment, the successor Servicer shall be the successor
in all respects to the predecessor Servicer and shall be subject to all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the predecessor Servicer
including, but not limited to, the maintenance of the hazard insurance
policy(ies), the fidelity bond and an errors and omissions policy pursuant to
Section 8.21(b) and shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee and all of the
rights granted to the predecessor Servicer by the terms and provisions of
this Agreement. The appointment of a successor Servicer shall not affect any
liability of the predecessor Servicer which may have arisen under this
Agreement prior to its termination as Servicer (including, without
limitation, any deductible under an insurance policy) nor shall any successor
Servicer be liable for any acts or omissions of the predecessor Servicer or
for any breach by such Servicer of any of its representations or warranties
contained herein or in any related document or agreement.

         (o) The Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to
Sections 7.03(b) for all Transition Expenses (other than amounts reimbursed
pursuant to paragraph (j) above), including, without limitation, any costs or
expenses associated with the complete transfer of all servicing data and the
completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be
required by the Trustee to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the
servicing data or otherwise to enable the Trustee to service the Home Equity
Loans properly and effectively.

         Section 8.21. INSPECTIONS BY CERTIFICATE INSURER; ERRORS AND OMISSIONS
INSURANCE.

         (a) At any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable
notice, the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer, any Owner of a Class X-IO or
Class R Certificate, or any agents thereof may inspect the Servicer's
servicing operations and discuss the servicing operations of the Servicer
during the Servicer's normal business hours with any of its officers or
directors; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the costs and expenses incurred by the
Servicer or its agents or representatives in connection with any such
examinations or discussions shall be paid by the Servicer.

         (b) The Servicer (including the Trustee if it shall become the
Servicer hereunder) agrees to maintain errors and omissions coverage and a
fidelity bond, each at least to the extent required by Section 305 of Part I
of FNMA Guide or any successor provision thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in
any event that the fidelity bond or the errors and omissions coverage is no
longer in effect, the Servicer shall notify the Trustee and the Trustee shall
promptly give such notice to the Certificate Insurer and the Owners.

         Section 8.22. ADDITIONAL SERVICING RESPONSIBILITIES FOR SECOND MORTGAGE
LOANS.

         The Servicer shall file (or cause to be filed) a request for notice
of any action by a superior lienholder under a superior lien for the
protection of the Trustee's interest, where permitted by local law and
whenever applicable state law does not require that a junior lienholder be
named as a party defendant in foreclosure proceedings in order to foreclose
such junior lienholder's equity of redemption.

         If the Servicer is notified that any superior lienholder has
accelerated or intends to accelerate the obligations under a First Mortgage
Loan, or has declared or intends to declare a

                                       105
<PAGE>

default under the mortgage or the promissory note secured thereby, or has
filed or intends to file an election to have the Mortgaged Property sold or
foreclosed, the Servicer shall take, on behalf of the Trust, whatever actions
are necessary to protect the interests of the Owners and the Certificate
Insurer, and/or to preserve the security of the related Home Equity Loan,
subject to the application of the REMIC Provisions. The Servicer shall
advance the necessary funds to cure the default or reinstate the lien
securing a First Mortgage Loan, if such advance is in the best interests of
the Certificate Insurer and the Owners; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such
additional advance need be made if such advance would be nonrecoverable from
Liquidation Proceeds on the related Home Equity Loan. The Servicer shall
thereafter take such action as is necessary to recover the amount so
advanced. Any expenses incurred by the Servicer pursuant to this Section 8.22
shall be Servicing Advances.

          Section 8.23.  THE GROUP II HOME EQUITY LOANS.

         The Servicer shall enforce each Home Equity Loan in Group II in
accordance with its terms and shall timely calculate, record, report and apply
all interest rate adjustments in accordance with the related Note. The
Servicer's records shall, at all times, reflect the then Coupon Rate and monthly
payment and the Servicer shall timely notify the Mortgagor of any changes to the
Coupon Rate or the Mortgagor's monthly payment. If the Servicer fails to make
either a timely or accurate adjustment to the Coupon Rate or monthly payment or
to notify the Mortgagor of such adjustments, upon the Servicer's discovery of
such error and such continued failure, the Servicer shall pay from its own funds
any shortage. If the Servicer's continued failure after notice thereof to make a
scheduled change affects the Trust's rights to make future adjustments under the
terms of such Home Equity Loan, the Servicer shall repurchase such Home Equity
Loan in accordance with the provisions hereof. Any amounts paid by the Servicer
pursuant to this Section shall not be an advance and shall not be reimbursable
from the proceeds of any Home Equity Loan.

         Section 8.24. MERGER, CONVERSION, CONSOLIDATION OR SUCCESSION TO
BUSINESS OF SERVICER. Any corporation into which the Servicer may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Servicer shall be a
party or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the business
of the Servicer shall be the successor of the Servicer hereunder, without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the
parties hereto provided that such corporation meets the qualifications set forth
in Section 8.20(h) and the resulting corporation has a Tangible Net Worth of at
least $_________ .

         Section 8.25. NOTICES OF MATERIAL EVENTS. The Servicer shall give
prompt notice to the Certificate Insurer, the Trustee, Moody's and Standard &
Poor's of the occurrence of any of the following events:

         (a) Any default or any fact or event of which the Servicer has
knowledge which results, or which with notice or the passage of time, or both,
would result in the occurrence of a default by the Seller, or the Servicer under
any Operative Document or would constitute a material breach of a
representation, warranty or covenant under any Operative Document;

                                      106

<PAGE>

         (b) The submission of any claim or the initiation of any legal
process, litigation or administrative or judicial investigation against the
Seller or the Servicer to which the Servicer has knowledge in any federal,
state or local court or before any governmental body or agency or before any
arbitration board or any such proceedings threatened by any governmental
agency, which, if adversely determined, would have a material adverse effect
upon any of the Seller's or the Servicer's ability to perform its obligations
under any Operative Document;

         (c) The commencement of any proceedings by or against the Seller or the
Servicer under any applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation,
insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or of any proceeding
in which a receiver, liquidator, trustee or other similar official shall have
been, or may be, appointed or requested for the Seller or the Servicer; and

         (d) The receipt of notice from any agency or governmental body having
authority over the conduct of any of the Seller's or the Servicer's business
that the Seller or the Servicer is to cease or desist, or to undertake any
practice, program, procedure or policy employed by the Seller or the Servicer in
the conduct of the business of any of them, and such cessation or undertaking
will materially and adversely affect the conduct of the Seller's or the
Servicer's business or its ability to perform under the Operative Documents or
materially and adversely affect the financial affairs of the Seller or the
Servicer.

         Section 8.26. INDEMNIFICATION BY THE SERVICER. The Servicer agrees to
indemnify and hold the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate Insurer and each
Owner harmless against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees
and expenses that the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate Insurer and any
Owner may sustain in any way related to the failure of the Servicer to perform
its duties and service the Home Equity Loans in compliance with the terms of
this Agreement. A party against whom a claim is brought shall immediately notify
the other parties and the Rating Agencies if a claim is made by a third party
with respect to this Agreement, and the Servicer shall assume (with the consent
of the Trustee) the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection
therewith, including reasonable counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and
satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against the Certificate
Insurer, the Servicer, the Trustee and/or Owner in respect of such claim.

         Section 8.27. REPORTS ON FORECLOSURE AND ABANDONMENT OF PROPERTIES. On
or before __________________ ____________of each year beginning in 20
___________, the Servicer shall file the reports of foreclosures and
abandonments of any Property required by Code Section 6050J with the Internal

                              TERMINATION OF TRUST

         Section 9.01.  TERMINATION OF TRUST.

         The Trust created hereunder and all obligations created by this
Agreement will terminate upon the payment to the Owners of all Certificates from
amounts other than those available under the Certificate Insurance Policies of
all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to such Owners pursuant
to this Agreement and payment in full of all amounts owed to the Certificate
Insurer upon the later to occur of (a) the final payment or other liquidation
(or any advance made with respect thereto) of the last Home Equity Loan in the
Trust Estate, (b) the disposition of all property acquired in respect of any
Home Equity Loan remaining in the Trust Estate and (c) at any time if a
Qualified Liquidation of both Home Equity Loan Groups within the Trust is
effected as described in Section 9.02. To effect a termination of this Agreement
pursuant to clause (c) above, the Owners of all Certificates then Outstanding
shall provide to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer, at their expense, an
Opinion of Counsel experienced in federal income tax matters acceptable to the
Certificate Insurer and the Trustee to the effect that each such liquidation
constitutes a Qualified Liquidation, and the Servicer either shall sell or
purchase the Home Equity Loans and the Trustee shall distribute the proceeds of
the liquidation of the Trust Estate. In no event, however, will the Trust
created by this Agreement continue beyond the expiration of twenty-one (21)
years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P.
Kennedy, the late Ambassador of the United States to the United Kingdom, living
on the date hereof. The Trustee shall give written notice of termination of the
Agreement to each Owner in the manner set forth in Section 11.05.

         Section 9.02.  TERMINATION UPON OPTION OF THE SERVICER.

         (a) On any Monthly Remittance Date after the Clean-Up Call Date, the
Servicer may determine to purchase, in whole only, and may cause the purchase
from the Trust of all (but not fewer than all) Home Equity Loans and all
property theretofore acquired in respect of any Home Equity Loan by foreclosure,
deed in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise then remaining in the Trust Estate (i)
on terms agreed upon between the Certificate Insurer, the Servicer and the
Owners of the Class X-IO and Class R Certificates (if such terms result in
payment to the Holders of the Class A Certificates of their entire balance and
interest at their Certificate Rate (and any Carry-Forward Amount)), or (ii) in
the absence of such an agreement, at a price equal to the Termination Price. In
connection with such purchase, the Servicer shall remit to the Trustee all
amounts then on deposit in the Principal and Interest Account for deposit to the
Certificate Account, which deposit shall be deemed to have occurred immediately
preceding such purchase.

         (b) In the event that the Servicer purchases all Home Equity Loans and
each REO Property remaining in the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 9.02(a), the
Trust Estate shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional
requirements:

                  (i) The Trustee shall specify the first day in the 90-day
         liquidation period in a statement attached to the final Tax Return of
         the REMICs created hereunder pursuant to

                                      108

<PAGE>

         Treasury regulation Section 1.860F-1 and shall satisfy all
         requirements of a qualified liquidation under Section 860F of the Code
         and any regulations thereunder;

                  (ii) During such 90-day liquidation period, and at or prior to
         the time of making the final payment on the Certificates, the Trustee
         shall sell all of the assets of the Trust Estate to the Servicer for
         cash; and

                  (iii) At the time of the making of the final payment on the
         Certificates and payment of all amounts owed to the Certificate
         Insurer, the Trustee shall distribute or credit, or cause to be
         distributed or credited, to the Owners of the Class X-IO and Class R
         Certificates all cash on hand in the Trust Estate (other than cash
         retained to meet claims), and the Trust Estate shall terminate at that
         time.

         (c) By their acceptance of the Certificates, the Owners thereof hereby
agree to authorize the Trustee to specify the first day in the 90-day
liquidation period in a statement attached to the Trust Estate's final Tax
Return, which shall be binding upon all successor Owners.

         (d) In connection with any such purchase, the Servicer shall provide to
the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of
the Servicer experienced in federal income tax matters acceptable to the
Certificate Insurer and the Trustee to the effect that such purchase and
liquidation constitutes a Qualified Liquidation of REMIC I and REMIC II.

         (e) Promptly following any purchase described in this Section 9.02, the
Trustee will release the Files to the Servicer or the Certificate Insurer, as
the case may be, or otherwise upon their order, in a manner similar to that
described in Section 8.14 hereof.

         Section 9.03.  TERMINATION UPON LOSS OF REMIC STATUS.

         (a) Following a final determination by the Internal Revenue Service or
by a court of competent jurisdiction, in either case from which no appeal is
taken within the permitted time for such appeal, or if any appeal is taken,
following a final determination of such appeal from which no further appeal can
be taken, to the effect that either REMIC created hereunder does not and will no
longer qualify as a REMIC pursuant to Section 860D of the Code (the "Final
Determination"), at any time on or after the date which is 30 calendar days
following such Final Determination (i) the Certificate Insurer or the Owners of
a majority in Percentage Interests represented by the Class A Certificates then
Outstanding with the consent of the Certificate Insurer may direct the Trustee
on behalf of the Trust to adopt a plan of complete liquidation, as contemplated
by Section 860F(a)(4) of the Code and (ii) the Certificate Insurer may notify
the Trustee of the Certificate Insurer's determination to purchase from the
Trust all (but not fewer than all) Home Equity Loans and all property
theretofore acquired by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise
in respect of any Home Equity Loan then remaining in the Trust Estate at a price
equal to the Termination Price.

         Upon receipt of such direction from the Certificate Insurer, the
Trustee shall notify the Owners of the Class R Certificates of such election to
liquidate or such determination to

                                      109

<PAGE>

purchase, as the case may be (the "Termination Notice"). The Owners of a
majority of the Percentage Interest of the Class R Certificates then
Outstanding may, within 60 days from the date of receipt of the Termination
Notice (the "Purchase Option Period"), at their option, purchase from the
Trust all (but not fewer than all) Home Equity Loans and all property
theretofore acquired by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or
otherwise in respect of any Home Equity Loan then remaining in the Trust
Estate at a purchase price equal to the Termination Price. If, during the
Purchase Option Period, the Owners of the Class R Certificates have not
exercised the option described in the immediately preceding paragraph, then
upon the expiration of the Purchase Option Period (i) in the event that the
Certificate Insurer or the Owners of the Class A Certificates with the
consent of the Certificate Insurer have given the Trustee the direction
described in clause (a)(i) above, the Trustee shall sell the Home Equity
Loans and distribute the proceeds of the liquidation of the Trust Estate,
each in accordance with the plan of complete liquidation, such that, if so
directed, the liquidation of the Trust Estate, the distribution of the
proceeds of the liquidation and the termination of this Agreement occur no
later than the close of the 60th day, or such later day as the Certificate
Insurer or the Owners of the Class A Certificates with the consent of the
Certificate Insurer shall permit or direct in writing, after the expiration
of the Purchase Option Period and (ii) in the event that the Certificate
Insurer has given the Trustee notice of the Certificate Insurer's
determination to purchase the Trust Estate described in clause (a)(ii)
preceding the Certificate Insurer shall, within 60 days, purchase all (but
not fewer than all) Home Equity Loans and all property theretofore acquired
by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise in respect of any
Home Equity Loan then remaining in the Trust Estate. In connection with such
purchase, the Servicer shall remit to the Trustee all amounts then on deposit
in the Principal and Interest Account for deposit to the Certificate Account,
which deposit shall be deemed to have occurred immediately preceding such
purchase.

         (b) Following a Final Determination, the Owners of a majority of the
Percentage Interest of the Class R Certificates then Outstanding may, at
their option and upon delivery to the Certificate Insurer of an Opinion of
Counsel experienced in federal income tax matters, acceptable to the
Certificate Insurer and selected by the Owners of the Class R Certificates,
which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the
Certificate Insurer, to the effect that the effect of the Final Determination
is to increase substantially the probability that the gross income of the
Trust will be subject to federal taxation, purchase from the Trust all (but
not fewer than all) Home Equity Loans and all property theretofore acquired
by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise in respect of any
Home Equity Loan then remaining in the Trust Estate at a purchase price equal
to the Termination Price. In connection with such purchase, the Servicer
shall remit to the Trustee all amounts then on deposit in the Principal and
Interest Account for deposit to the Certificate Account, which deposit shall
be deemed to have occurred immediately preceding such purchase. The foregoing
opinion shall be deemed satisfactory unless the Certificate Insurer gives the
Owners of a majority of the Percentage Interest of the Class R Certificates
notice that such opinion is not satisfactory within thirty days after receipt
by the Certificate Insurer of such opinion.

         Section 10.01.  CERTAIN DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES.

         (a) The Trustee (i) (A) undertakes to perform such duties and only such
duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, and no implied covenants
or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee and (B) the
banking institution that is the Trustee shall serve as the Trustee at all times
under this Agreement, and (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, may
conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the
opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions or any other
resolutions, statements, reports, documents, orders or other instruments
furnished pursuant to and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement; but
in the case of any such certificates or opinions or any other resolutions,
statements, reports, documents, orders or other instruments which by any
provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, shall
be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not on their face
they conform to the requirements of this Agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Trustee shall not be responsible for the accuracy or content of any resolution,
Certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument
furnished by the Servicer, the Certificate Insurer, the Sellers or the Depositor
hereunder. If any such instrument is found not to conform in any material
respect to the requirements of this Agreement, the Trustee shall notify the
Certificate Insurer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Servicer Termination
Event of which an Authorized Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge
has occurred and has not been cured or waived, the Trustee shall exercise such
of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and use the same degree
of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use
under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

         (b) Notwithstanding the appointment of the Servicer hereunder, the
Trustee is hereby empowered to perform the duties of the Servicer it being
expressly understood, however, that the foregoing describes a power and not an
obligation of the Trustee (unless the Servicer shall have resigned or been
terminated and a successor Servicer shall not have been appointed pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement), and that all parties hereto agree that, prior to
any termination of the Servicer, the Servicer and, thereafter, the Trustee or
any other successor servicer shall perform such duties. Specifically, and not in
limitation of the foregoing, the Trustee shall upon termination or resignation
of the Servicer, and pending the appointment of any other Person as successor
Servicer have the power and duty during its performance as successor Servicer:

         (i)      to collect Mortgagor payments;

         (ii)     to foreclose on defaulted Home Equity Loans;

         (iii)    to enforce due-on-sale clauses and to enter into assumption
                  and substitution agreements as permitted by Section 8.12
                  hereof;

         (iv)     to deliver instruments of satisfaction pursuant to

                  Compensating Interest.

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

         (i)      This subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of
                  subsection (a) of this Section;

         (ii)     The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any error of
                  judgment made in good faith by an Authorized Officer, unless
                  it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in
                  ascertaining the pertinent facts;

         (iii)    The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
                  taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance
                  with the direction of the Certificate Insurer or of the Owners
                  of a majority in Percentage Interest of the Certificates of
                  the affected Class or Classes and the Certificate Insurer
                  relating to the time, method and place of conducting any
                  proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or
                  exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee,
                  under this Agreement relating to such Certificates;

         (iv)     The Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed
                  to have notice or knowledge of any default unless an
                  Authorized Officer of the Trustee shall have received written
                  notice thereof or an Authorized Officer shall have actual
                  knowledge thereof. In the absence of receipt of such notice,
                  the Trustee may conclusively assume that there is no default;
                  and

         (v)      Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement and without
                  limiting the generality of this Section l0.01, the Trustee

                  evidencing a security interest, or to see to the maintenance
                  of any such recording or filing or depositing or to any
                  rerecording, refiling or redepositing of any thereof, (B) to
                  see to any insurance or (C) to see to the payment or discharge
                  of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge or any
                  lien or encumbrance of any kind owing with respect to,
                  assessed or levied against, any part of the Trust Estate from
                  funds available in the Certificate Account.

         (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of
this Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or
affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this
Section.

or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties hereunder,

                                      113

or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have
reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity
reasonably satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not
reasonably assured to it. None of the provisions contained in this Agreement
shall in any event require the Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the
manner of performance of, any of the obligations of the Servicer under this
Agreement, except during such time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the
successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges
of, the Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

         (f) The permissive right of the Trustee to take actions enumerated

any and all costs and expenses, outlays and counsel fees and other reasonable
disbursements and against all liability, except liability which is adjudicated

         Section 10.05.  MAY HOLD CERTIFICATES.

         The Trustee, any Paying Agent, Registrar or any other agent of the
Trust, in its individual or any other capacity, may become an Owner or pledged

agent.

         Section 10.06.  MONEY HELD IN TRUST.

         Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated

         Section 10.07.  COMPENSATION AND REIMBURSEMENT.

         Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Trustee and any

Trust and held harmless against any loss, liability, or "unanticipated
out-of-pocket" expense incurred or paid to third parties (which expenses shall

claim or legal action arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or
administration of its trusts hereunder or the Certificates, other than any loss,
liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless
disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. All such amounts described in the
preceding sentence shall constitute Trustee Reimbursable Expenses. It is

held harmless against any loss, liability or reasonable expenses incurred by the
Trustee in performing its duties as Tax Matters Person for the REMICs created
under this Agreement, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by
reason of willful misfeasance or bad faith. When the Trustee incurs expenses or
provides services after the occurrence of a default and the commencement of a
voluntary or involuntary case under Title 11 of the United States Code or any
other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law
involving any of the Sellers or the Servicer, the expenses and fees for such
services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under such laws.
The provisions of this Section 10.07 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement.

         Section 10.08.  CORPORATE TRUSTEE REQUIRED; ELIGIBILITY.

corporation or association organized and doing business under the laws of the
United States of America or of any State authorized under such laws to exercise
corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and

                                       118
<PAGE>

surplus of at least $_____________ subject to supervision or examination by
the United States of America, or any state, acceptable to the Certificate
Insurer and having a deposit rating of at least A- from Standard & Poor's and
A2 by Moody's. If such Trustee publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising
or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined
capital and surplus of such corporation or association shall be deemed to be
its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of
condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible
in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall, upon the request
of the Certificate Insurer, resign immediately in the manner and with the
effect hereinafter specified in this Article X.

         Section 10.09.  RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL; APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR.

         (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a
successor trustee pursuant to this Article X shall become effective until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee under Section 10.10 hereof.

         (b) The Trustee, or any trustee or trustees hereafter appointed, may
resign at any time by giving written notice of resignation to the Depositor and
the Seller and by mailing notice of resignation by first-class mail, postage
prepaid, to the Certificate Insurer and the Owners at their addresses appearing
on the Register. A copy of such notice shall be sent by the resigning Trustee to
the Rating Agencies. Upon receiving notice of resignation, the Depositor shall
promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees acceptable to the Certificate
Insurer by written instrument, in duplicate, executed on behalf of the Trust by
an Authorized Officer of the Depositor, one copy of which instrument shall be
delivered to the Trustee so resigning and one copy to the successor Trustee or
Trustees. If no successor Trustee shall have been appointed and have accepted
appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the
resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee, or any Owner may, on behalf of himself and
all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a
successor Trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it
may deem proper and appropriate, appoint a successor Trustee.

         (c) If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section
10.08 hereof and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the
Depositor or by the Certificate Insurer, the Certificate Insurer or the
Depositor with the written consent of the Certificate Insurer may remove the
Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee acceptable to the Certificate Insurer by
written instrument, in duplicate, executed on behalf of the Trust by an
Authorized Officer of the Depositor, one copy of which instrument shall be
delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Trustee.

         (d) The Owners of a majority of the Voting Rights represented by the
Class A Certificates with the prior written consent of the Certificate Insurer,
or, if there are no Class A Certificates then Outstanding, by such majority of
the Voting Rights represented by the Class X-IO and Class R Certificates, may at
any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee acceptable to the
Certificate Insurer by delivering to the Trustee to be removed, to the successor

                                       119
<PAGE>

Trustee so appointed, to the Depositor, to the Servicer and to the Certificate
Insurer, copies of the record of the act taken by the Owners, as provided for in
Section 11.03 hereof.

         (e) If the Trustee fails to perform its duties in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, or becomes ineligible pursuant to Section 10.08 to
serve as Trustee, the Certificate Insurer may remove the Trustee and appoint a
successor Trustee by written instrument, in triplicate, signed by the
Certificate Insurer duly authorized, one complete set of which instruments shall
be delivered to the Depositor, one complete set to the Trustee so removed and
one complete set to the successor Trustee so appointed.

         (f) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of
acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of the Trustee for any cause,
the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee acceptable to the
Certificate Insurer. If within one year after such resignation, removal or
incapability or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee shall be
appointed by act of the Certificate Insurer or the Owners of a majority of the
Percentage Interests represented by the Class A Certificates then Outstanding
with the consent of the Certificate Insurer, the successor Trustee so appointed
shall forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment become the successor
Trustee and supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Depositor. If no
successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Depositor or the Owners
and shall have accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any
Owner may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such
court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and
prescribe, appoint a successor Trustee.

         (g) The Servicer shall give notice of any removal of the Trustee by
mailing notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the
Certificate Insurer, to the Rating Agencies and to the Owners as their names and
addresses appear in the Register. Each notice shall include the name of the
successor Trustee and the address of its corporate trust office.

         Section 10.10.  ACCEPTANCE OF APPOINTMENT BY SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE.

         Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge
and deliver to the Depositor on behalf of the Trust to the Certificate Insurer
and to its predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment
hereunder and stating its eligibility to serve as Trustee hereunder, and
thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become
effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts, duties and
obligations of its predecessor hereunder; but, on request of the Depositor, the
Certificate Insurer or the successor Trustee, such predecessor Trustee shall,
upon payment of its charges then unpaid, execute and deliver an instrument
transferring to such successor Trustee all of the rights, powers and trusts of
the Trustee so ceasing to act, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to
such successor Trustee all property and money held by such Trustee so ceasing to
act hereunder. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Depositor on
behalf of the Trust shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and
certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights,
powers and trusts.

                                       120
<PAGE>

         Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as provided in
this Section, the Depositor shall mail notice thereof by first-class mail,
postage prepaid, to the Owners at their last addresses appearing upon the
Register and to the Certificate Insurer. The Depositor shall send a copy of such
notice to the Rating Agencies. If the Depositor fails to mail such notice within
ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee, the successor
Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Trust.

         No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of
such acceptance such successor shall be qualified and eligible under this
Article X.

         Section 10.11. MERGER, CONVERSION, CONSOLIDATION OR SUCCESSION TO
BUSINESS OF THE TRUSTEE.

         Any corporation or association into which the Trustee may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or
association resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the
Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or association succeeding to all or
substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the
successor of the Trustee hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper
or any further act on the pan of any of the parties hereto; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that such corporation or association shall be otherwise qualified and eligible
under this Article X. In case any Certificates have been executed, but not
delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or
consolidation to such Trustee may adopt such execution and deliver the
Certificates so executed with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had
itself executed such Certificates.

         Section 10.12.  REPORTING; WITHHOLDING.

         (a) The Trustee shall timely provide to the Owners the Internal Revenue
Service's Form 1099 and any other statement required by applicable Treasury
regulations as determined by the Tax Matters Person, and shall withhold, as
required by applicable law, federal, state or local taxes, if any, applicable to
distributions to the Owners, including but not limited to backup withholding
under Section 3406 of the Code and the withholding tax on distributions to
foreign investors under Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code.

         (b) As required by law or upon request of the Tax Matters Person and
except as otherwise specifically set forth in (a) preceding, the Trustee shall
timely file all reports prepared by the Seller and required to be filed by the
Trust, including other reports that must be filed with the Owners, such as the
Internal Revenue Service's Form 1066 and Schedule Q. The Trustee shall, upon
written request of the Seller, collect any forms or reports from the Owners
determined by the Seller to be required under applicable federal, state and
local tax laws.

         (c) Except as otherwise provided, the Trustee shall have the
responsibility for preparation and execution of those returns, forms, reports
and other documents referred to in this Section.

                                       121
<PAGE>

         (d) The Seller covenants and agrees that it shall provide to the
Trustee any information necessary to enable the Trustee to meet its obligations
under subsections (a), (b) and (c) above.

         Section 10.13.  LIABILITY OF THE TRUSTEE.

         The Trustee shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent
of the obligations specifically imposed upon and undertaken by the Trustee
herein. Neither the Trustee nor any of the directors, officers, employees or
agents of the Trustee shall be under any liability on any Certificate or
otherwise to the Certificate Account, the Depositor, the Sellers, the Servicer
or any Owner for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any
action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this provision shall not protect the Trustee, its
directors, officers, employees or agents or any such Person against any
liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of negligent action,
negligent failure to act or willful misconduct in the performance of duties or
by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. Subject to
the foregoing sentence, the Trustee shall not be liable for losses on
investments of amounts in the Certificate Account (except for any losses on
obligations on which the bank serving as Trustee is the obligor). In addition,
the Depositor and CHEC covenant and agree to indemnify the Trustee and the
Servicer (if the Servicer is also the Trustee) and their officers, directors,
agents and employees from, and hold it harmless against, any and all losses,
liabilities, damages, claims or expenses (including legal fees and expenses) of
whatsoever kind arising out of or in connection with the performance of its
duties hereunder other than those resulting from the negligence or bad faith.
The Trustee and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee may
conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from
acting in good faith on any Certificate, notice or other document of any kind
PRIMA FACIE properly executed and submitted by the Authorized Officer of any
Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The provisions of this Section
10.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the
outstanding Certificates. When the Trustee incurs expenses or provides services
after the occurrence of a default and the commencement of a voluntary or
involuntary case under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other
applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law involving on
the Sellers or the Servicer, the expenses and fees for such services are
intended to constitute expenses of administration under such laws.

         Section 10.14.  APPOINTMENT OF CO-TRUSTEE OR SEPARATE TRUSTEE.

         Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time,
for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which
any part of the Trust Estate or Property may at the time be located, the
Servicer and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute
and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the
Trustee and reasonably acceptable to the Certificate Insurer to act as
co-Trustee or co-Trustees, jointly with the Trustee, of all or any part of the
Trust Estate or separate Trustee or separate Trustees of any part of the Trust
Estate, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the
benefit of the Owners and the Certificate Insurer, such title to the Trust
Estate, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this
Section 10.14, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the
Servicer and the Trustee may consider

                                       122
<PAGE>

necessary or desirable. If the Servicer shall not have joined in such
appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or
in the case any event indicated in Section 8.20(a) shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Trustee subject to reasonable approval of the Certificate
Insurer alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-Trustee or
separate Trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility
as a successor trustee under Section 10.08 and no notice to Owner of the
appointment of any co-Trustee or separate Trustee shall be required under
Section 10.09.

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

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

                  (ii) No co-Trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable
         by reason of any act or omission of any other co-Trustee hereunder; and

                  (iii) The Servicer, and the Certificate Insurer and the
         Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or
         remove any separate Trustee or co-Trustee.

         Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be
deemed to have been given to each of the then separate Trustees and co-Trustees,
as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any
separate Trustee or co-Trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions
of this Section 10.14. Each separate Trustee and co-Trustee, upon its acceptance
of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified
in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately,
as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement,
specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct
of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every
such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy thereof given to the
Servicer and the Certificate Insurer.

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

         Section 10.15.  APPOINTMENT OF CUSTODIANS.

         The Trustee may appoint one or more Custodians to hold all or a portion
of the Files as agent for the Trustee, by entering into a Custodial Agreement
acceptable to the Certificate Insurer. Subject to this Article X, the Trustee
agrees to comply with the terms of the Custodial Agreement and to enforce the
terms and provisions thereof against the Custodian for the benefit of the Owners
of the Certificates and the Certificate Insurer.

                                END OF ARTICLE X

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         Section 11.01.  COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATES AND OPINIONS.

         Upon any application or request by the Depositor, the Seller, the
Certificate Insurer or the Owners to the Trustee to take any action under any
provision of this Agreement, the Depositor, the Seller, the Certificate Insurer
or the Owners, as the case may be, shall furnish to the Trustee a certificate
stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Agreement
relating to the proposed action have been complied with, except that in the case
of any such application or request as to which the furnishing of such documents
is specifically required by any provision of this Agreement relating to such
particular application or request, no additional certificate need be furnished.

         Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each certificate or
opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in
this Agreement (including one furnished pursuant to specific requirements of
this Agreement relating to a particular application or request) shall include:

         (a) a statement that each individual signing such certificate or
opinion has read such covenant or condition and the definitions herein relating
thereto;

         (b) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or
investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such
certificate or opinion are based; and

         (c) a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such individual,
such condition or covenant has been complied with.

         Section 11.02.  FORM OF DOCUMENTS DELIVERED TO THE TRUSTEE.

         In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or
covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all
such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such
Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one
such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one
or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify
or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

         Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Trustee may
be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion
of, or representations by counsel, unless such Authorized Officer knows, or in
the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or
representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or
opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or opinion of an Authorized
Officer of the Trustee or any Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it
relates to factual matter upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations
by, one or more Authorized Officers of the Depositor, the Seller or the
Servicer, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is
in the possession of the Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer, unless such
Authorized Officer or

                                       125

<PAGE>

counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the
certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are
erroneous. Any Opinion of Counsel may also be based, insofar as it relates to
factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an
Authorized Officer of the Trustee, stating that the information with respect
to such matters is in the possession of the Trustee, unless such counsel
knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the
certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are
erroneous. Any Opinion of Counsel may be based on the written opinion of
other counsel, in which event such Opinion of Counsel shall be accompanied by
a copy of such other counsel's opinion and shall include a statement to the
effect that such counsel believes that such counsel and the Trustee may
reasonably rely upon the opinion of such other counsel.

         Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more
applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other
instruments under this Agreement, they may, but need not, be consolidated and
form one instrument.

         Section 11.03.  ACTS OF OWNERS.

         (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action provided by this Agreement to be given or taken by the
Owners may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of
substantially similar tenor signed by such Owners in person or by agent duly
appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such
action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered
to the Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Seller. Such
instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced
thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "act" of the Owners signing
such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of
a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this
Agreement and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Trust, if made in the
manner provided in this Section.

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

         (c) The ownership of Certificates shall be proved by the Register.

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

         Section 11.04.  NOTICES, ETC. TO TRUSTEE.

         Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or act of the Owners or other documents provided or permitted by this Agreement
to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with the Trustee by any Owner,
the Certificate Insurer, the Depositor, either of the Sellers or the Servicer
shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or
filed in writing to or with and received by the Trustee at its Corporate Trust
Office as set forth in Section 2.02 hereof.

         Section 11.05.  NOTICES AND REPORTS TO OWNERS; WAIVER OF NOTICES.

         Where this Agreement provides for notice to Owners of any event or the
mailing of any report to Owners, such notice or report shall be sufficiently
given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if mailed, first-class
postage prepaid, to each Owner affected by such event or to whom such report is
required to be mailed, at the address of such Owner as it appears on the
Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest
date, prescribed for the giving of such notice or the mailing of such report. In
any case where a notice or report to Owners is mailed in the manner provided
above, neither the failure to mail such notice or report nor any defect in any
notice or report so mailed to any particular Owner shall affect the sufficiency
of such notice or report with respect to other Owners, and any notice or report
which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to
have been duly given or provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Servicer
is removed or resigned or the Trust is terminated, notice of any such events
shall be made by overnight courier, registered mail or telecopy followed by a
telephone call.

         Where this Agreement provides for notice in any manner, such notice may
be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either
before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such
notice. Waivers of notice by Owners shall be filed with the Trustee, but such
filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in
reliance upon such waiver.

         In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a
result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical
to mail notice of any event to Owners when such notice is required to be given
pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, then any manner of giving such
notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a
sufficient giving of such notice.

         Where this Agreement provides for notice to any Rating Agency that
rated any Certificates, failure to give such notice shall not affect any other
rights or obligations created hereunder.

         Section 11.06.  RULES BY TRUSTEE.

         The Trustee may make reasonable rules for any meeting of Owners.

                                       127
<PAGE>

         Section 11.07.  SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

         All covenants and agreements in this Agreement by any party hereto
shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

         Section 11.08.  SEVERABILITY.

         In case any provision in this Agreement or in the Certificates shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

         Section 11.09.  BENEFITS OF AGREEMENT.

         Nothing in this Agreement or in the Certificates, expressed or implied,
shall give to any Person, other than the Owners, the Certificate Insurer and the
parties hereto and their successors hereunder, any benefit or any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement.

         Section 11.10.  LEGAL HOLIDAYS.

         In any case where the date of any Distribution Date, any other date on
which any distribution to any Owner is proposed to be paid, or any date on which
a notice is required to be sent to any Person pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement (with the exception of any Monthly Remittance Date) shall not be a
Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of the Certificates or
this Agreement) payment or mailing need not be made on such date, but may be
made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if
made or mailed on the nominal date of any such Distribution Date, or such other
date for the payment of any distribution to any Owner or the mailing of such
notice, as the case may be, and no interest shall accrue for the period from and
after any such nominal date, provided such payment is made in full on such next
succeeding Business Day. In any case where the date of any Monthly Remittance
Date or any Monthly Reporting Date shall not be a Business Day, then payment or
mailing need not be made on such date, but must be made on the preceding
Business Day.

         Section 11.11.  GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION.

         (a) In view of the fact that Owners are expected to reside in many
states and outside the United States and the desire to establish with certainty
that this Agreement will be governed by and construed and interpreted in
accordance with the law of a state having a well-developed body of commercial
and financial law relevant to transactions of the type contemplated herein, this
Agreement and each Certificate shall be construed in accordance with and
governed by the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and
to be performed therein, without giving effect to the conflicts of law
principles thereof.

         (b) The parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of
the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and any
court in the State of New York located in the City and County of New York, and
any appellate court from any thereof, in any action, suit or proceeding brought
against it or in connection with this Agreement or any of the related documents
or the transactions contemplated hereunder or for recognition or

                                       128
<PAGE>

enforcement of any judgment, and the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally agree that all claims in respect of any such action or
proceeding may be heard or determined in such New York State court or, to the
extent permitted by law, in such federal court. The parties hereto agree that
a final judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding shall be conclusive
and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any
other manner provided by law. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the
parties hereto hereby waive and agree not to assert by way of motion, as a
defense or otherwise in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that
it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such courts, that the
suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the
venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or that the related
documents or the subject matter thereof may not be litigated in or by such
courts.

         (c) Each of the Depositor, Seller, and the Servicer hereby irrevocably
appoints and designates the Trustee as its true and lawful attorney and duly
authorized agent for acceptance of service of legal process with respect to any
action, suit or proceeding set forth in paragraph (b) hereof. Each of the Seller
and the Servicer agrees that service of such process upon the Trustee shall
constitute personal service of such process upon it.

         (d) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit or affect the right
of the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer or the Certificate Insurer or
third-party beneficiary hereunder, as the case may be, to serve process in any
other manner permitted by law or to start legal proceedings relating to any of
the Home Equity Loans against any Mortgagor in the courts of any jurisdiction.

         Section 11.12.  COUNTERPARTS.

         This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts
shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

         Section 11.13.  USURY.

         The amount of interest payable or paid on any Certificate under the
terms of this Agreement shall be limited to an amount which shall not exceed the
maximum nonusurious rate of interest allowed by the applicable laws of the State
of New York or any applicable law of the United States permitting a higher
maximum nonusurious rate that preempts such applicable New York laws, which
could lawfully be contracted for, charged or received (the "Highest Lawful
Rate"). In the event any payment of interest on any Certificate exceeds the
Highest Lawful Rate, the Trust stipulates that such excess amount will be deemed
to have been paid to the Owner of such Certificate as a result of an error on
the part of the Trustee acting on behalf of the Trust and the Owner receiving
such excess payment shall promptly, upon discovery of such error or upon notice
thereof from the Trustee on behalf of the Trust, refund the amount of such
excess or, at the option of such Owner, apply the excess to the payment of
principal of such Certificate, if any, remaining unpaid. In addition, all sums
paid or agreed to be paid to the Trustee for the benefit of Owners of
Certificates for the use, forbearance or detention of money shall, to the extent

                                       129
<PAGE>

permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread
throughout the full term of such Certificates.

         Section 11.14.  AMENDMENT.

         (a) The Trustee, the Depositor, the Seller and the Servicer, may at any
time and from time to time, with the prior written approval of the Certificate
Insurer but without the giving of notice to or the receipt of the consent of the
Owners, amend this Agreement, and the Trustee shall consent to the amendment for
the purposes of (i) if accompanied by an approving Opinion of Counsel and
Officer's Certificate which shall not be at the expense of the Trustee
experienced in federal income tax matters, removing the restriction against the
transfer of a Class R Certificate to a Disqualified Organization (as such term
is defined in the Code), (ii) complying with the requirements of the Code
including any amendments necessary to maintain REMIC status of each REMIC, (iii)
curing any ambiguity, (iv) correcting or supplementing any provisions of this
Agreement which are inconsistent with any other provisions of this Agreement or
(v) for any other purpose, provided that in the case of clause (v), such
amendment shall not adversely affect in any material respect any Owner. Any such
amendment shall be deemed not to adversely affect in any material respect any
Owner if such Owner shall have consented thereto in writing or if there is
delivered to the Trustee written notification from each Rating Agency that such
amendment will not cause such Rating Agency to reduce its then current rating
assigned to the Class A Certificates without regard to the related Certificate
Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no such amendment
shall (a) change in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments
which are required to be distributed to any Owner without the consent of the
Owner of such Certificate, (b) change the percentages of Percentage Interest
which are required to consent to any such amendments, without the consent of the
Owners of all Certificates of the Class or Classes affected then outstanding or
(c) affect in any manner the terms or provisions of the related Certificate
Insurance Policy. The Trustee shall not be required to execute any amendment or
supplement if it affects its rights, duties, immunities or indemnities.

         (b) The Certificate Insurer and the Rating Agencies shall be provided
by the Seller and the Depositor with copies of any amendments to this Agreement,
together with copies of any opinions or other documents or instruments executed
in connection therewith.

         (c) Notwithstanding any contrary provisions of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall
have first received an Opinion of Counsel (provided by the Person requesting
such amendment) to the effect that such amendment will not result in the
imposition of any tax on the Trust pursuant to the REMIC Provisions or cause
either REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that
any of the Certificates are outstanding.

         Section 11.15.  PAYING AGENT; APPOINTMENT AND ACCEPTANCE OF DUTIES.

         The Trustee is hereby appointed Paying Agent. The Seller may, subject
to the eligibility requirements for the Trustee set forth in Section 10.08
hereof, including, without limitation, the

                                       130
<PAGE>

prior written consent of the Certificate Insurer, appoint one or more other
Paying Agents or successor Paying Agents.

         Each Paying Agent, immediately upon such appointments shall signify its
acceptance of the duties and obligations imposed upon it by this Agreement by
written instrument of acceptance deposited with the Trustee.

         Each such Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall execute and deliver
to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the
Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.02, that such Paying Agent will:

                  (a) allocate all sums received for distribution to the Owners
         of Certificates of each Class for which it is acting as Paying Agent on
         each Distribution Date among such Owners in the proportion specified by
         the Trustee; and

                  (d) hold all sums held by it for the distribution of amounts
         due with respect to the Certificates in trust for the benefit of the
         Owners entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Owners or
         otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such
         Persons as herein provided.

         Any Paying Agent other than the Trustee may at any time resign and be
discharged of the duties and obligations created by this Agreement by giving at
least sixty (60) days written notice to the Trustee. Any such Paying Agent may
be removed at any time by an instrument filed with such Paying Agent and signed
by the Trustee.

         In the event of the resignation or removal of any Paying Agent other
than the Trustee such Paying Agent shall pay over, assign and deliver any moneys
held by it as Paying Agent to its successor, or if there be no successor, to the
Trustee.

         Upon the appointment, removal or notice of resignation of any Paying
Agent, the Trustee shall notify the Certificate Insurer and the Owners by
mailing notice thereof at their addresses appearing on the Register.

         Section 11.16.  REMIC STATUS.

         (a) The parties hereto intend that each REMIC created hereunder
shall constitute, and that the affairs of each REMIC created hereunder shall

Provisions. In furtherance of such intention, _____________ or such other
person designated pursuant to Section 11.18 hereof shall act as agent for the
Trust and as Tax Matters Person for the Trust and that in such capacity it

a timely manner, annual tax returns and any other tax return required to be
filed by each REMIC created hereunder using a calendar year as the taxable

cause to be made) an election satisfying the requirements of the REMIC
Provisions, on behalf of each REMIC created hereunder, for it to be treated
as a REMIC; (iii) at the Tax Matters Person's expense, prepare and forward,
or cause to be prepared and forwarded, to the Owners all information, reports
or tax returns required with respect to each REMIC created hereunder,

<PAGE>

Schedule Q to Form 1066, as, when and in the form required to be
provided to the Owners, and to the Internal Revenue Service and any other
relevant governmental taxing authority in accordance with the REMIC
Provisions and any other applicable federal, state or local laws, including
without limitation information reports relating to "original issue discount"
as defined in the Code based upon the prepayment assumption and calculated by
using the "Issue Price" (within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Code) of
the Certificates of the related Class; provided that the tax return filed on
Schedule Q to Form 1066 shall be prepared and forwarded to the Owners of the
Class R Certificates no later than 50 days after the end of the period to
which such tax return was due; (iv) not take any action or omit to take any
action that would cause the termination of the REMIC status of either REMIC
created hereunder, except as provided under this Agreement; (v) represent,

proceedings relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing
authority, request an administrative adjustment as to a taxable year of the
Trust or each REMIC created hereunder, enter into settlement agreements with
any governmental taxing agency, extend any statute of limitations relating to
any tax item of the Trust or each REMIC created hereunder, and otherwise act
on behalf of the Trust or each REMIC created hereunder in relation to any tax
matter involving the Trust or each REMIC created hereunder (the legal
expenses and costs of any such action described in this subsection (v) and
any liability resulting therefrom shall constitute expenses of the Trust and
shall constitute Trustee Reimbursable Expenses, unless such legal expenses
and costs are incurred by reason of the Trustee's willful misfeasance, bad
faith or negligence; (vi) comply with all statutory or regulatory
requirements with regard to its conduct of activities pursuant to the
foregoing clauses of this Section 11.16, including, without limitation,
providing all notices and other information to the Internal Revenue Service
and Owners of Class R Certificates required of a "tax matters person"
pursuant to subtitle F of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder;
(vii) make available information necessary for the computation of any tax
imposed (A) on transferor of residual interests to certain Disqualified
Organizations or (B) on pass-through entities, any interest in which is held
by a Disqualified Organization; and (viii) acquire and hold the Tax Matters
Person Residual Interest. The obligations of the Trustee or such other
designated Tax Matters Person pursuant to this Section 11.16 shall survive
the termination or discharge of this Agreement.

         (b) The Seller, the Depositor, the Trustee and the Servicer covenant
and agree for the benefit of the Owners and the Certificate Insurer (i) to take
no action which would result in the termination of REMIC status for either REMIC
created hereunder, (ii) not to engage in any "prohibited transaction", as such
term is defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, (iii) not to engage in any
other action which may result in the imposition on the Trust of any other taxes
under the Code and (iv) to cause the Servicer not to take or engage in any such
action, to the extent either of the Seller is aware of any such proposed action
by the Servicer.

         (c) Each REMIC created hereunder shall, for federal income tax
purposes, maintain books on a calendar year basis and report income on an
accrual basis.

         (d) Except as otherwise permitted by Section 7.05(b), no Eligible
Investment shall be sold prior to its stated maturity (unless sold pursuant to a
plan of liquidation in accordance with Article IX hereof).

                                       132
<PAGE>

         (e) None of the Depositor, the Seller or the Trustee shall enter into
any arrangement by which the Trustee will receive a fee or other compensation
for services rendered pursuant to this Agreement, other than as expressly
contemplated by this Agreement.

         (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (d) and (e), the Trustee or
the Seller may engage in any of the transactions prohibited by such clauses,
provided that the Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel experienced
in federal income tax matters acceptable to the Certificate Insurer to the
effect that such transaction does not result in a tax imposed on the Trustee or
cause a termination of REMIC status for either REMIC created hereunder;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such transaction is otherwise permitted under this
Agreement.

         (g) In the event that any tax is imposed on "prohibited transactions"
of the Trust created hereunder as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on
"net income from foreclosure property" of the Trust as defined in Section
860G(c) of the Code, on any contributions to the Trust after the Startup Date
therefor pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed by
the Code or any applicable provisions of state or local tax laws, such tax shall
be charged (i) to the Trustee if such tax arises out of or results from the
willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in performance by the Trustee of
any of its obligations under Article X, (ii) to the Servicer if such tax arises
out of or results from a breach by the Servicer of any of its obligations under
Article VIII or otherwise.

         Section 11.17.  ADDITIONAL LIMITATION ON ACTION AND IMPOSITION OF TAX.

         Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Trustee shall not, without having obtained an Opinion of Counsel experienced in
federal income tax matters acceptable to the Certificate Insurer at the expense
of the party seeking to take such action but in no event at the expense of the
Trust to the effect that such transaction does not result in a tax imposed on
the Trust or either REMIC created hereunder or cause a termination of REMIC
status for either REMIC created hereunder, (i) sell any assets in the Trust
Estate, (ii) accept any contribution of assets after the Startup Day, (iii)
allow the Servicer to foreclose upon any Home Equity Loan if such foreclosure
would result in a tax on the Trust or either REMIC created hereunder or cause
termination of REMIC status for either REMIC created hereunder or (iv) agree to
any modification of this Agreement. To the extent that sufficient amounts cannot
be so retained to pay or provide for the payment of such tax, the Trustee is
hereby authorized to and shall segregate, into a separate non-interest bearing
account, the net income from any such Prohibited Transactions of each REMIC
created hereunder and use such income, to the extent necessary, to pay such tax;
PROVIDED THAT, to the extent that any such income is paid to the Internal
Revenue Service, the Trustee shall retain an equal amount from future amounts
otherwise distributable to the Owners of Class R Certificates and shall
distribute such retained amounts to the Owners of Class A Certificates to the
extent they are fully reimbursed and then to the Owners of the Class R
Certificates. If any tax, including interest penalties or assessments,
additional amounts or additions to tax, is imposed on the Trust, such tax shall
be charged against amounts otherwise distributable to the owners of the Class R
Certificates on a PRO RATA basis. The Trustee is hereby authorized to and shall
retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Owners of the Class R
Certificates sufficient funds to pay or provide for the payment of, and to
actually pay, such tax as is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization
shall not prevent the

                                       133
<PAGE>

Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and
withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of
such proceedings).

         Section 11.18.  APPOINTMENT OF TAX MATTERS PERSON.

         A Tax Matters Person will be appointed for each REMIC created hereunder
for all purposes of the Code and such Tax Matters Person will perform, or cause
to be performed, such duties and take, or cause to be taken, such actions as are
required to be performed or taken by the Tax Matters Person under the Code. The
Tax Matters Person for each REMIC created hereunder shall be the Trustee as long
as it owns a Class R Certificate. If the Trustee does not own a Class R
Certificate, the Tax Matters Person will be the holder of the largest percentage
interest in the Class R Certificates. The Trustee is hereby irrevocably
appointed to act as the agent of the Tax Matters Person for all purposes of the
Code and regulations thereunder.

         Section 11.19.  THE CERTIFICATE INSURER.

         Any right conferred to the Certificate Insurer hereunder, including
but not limited to consent rights, shall be suspended and shall run to the
benefit of the Owners and shall be exercisable by a vote of Owners holding
Certificates representing at least a ____% Percentage Interest of all Class A
Certificates during any period in which there exists a Certificate Insurer
Default; PROVIDED, that the right of the Certificate Insurer to receive the
Premium Amount or any Reimbursement Amounts shall not be suspended if such
Certificate Insurer Default was a default other than a default under clause
(a) of the definition thereof. If a Certificate Insurer Default shall cease
to exist, the rights of the Certificate Issuer shall be immediately restored.
At such time as the Class A Certificates are no longer Outstanding hereunder
and the Certificate Insurer has received all Reimbursement Amounts, the
Certificate Insurer's rights hereunder shall terminate.

         Section 11.20.  RESERVED.

         Section 11.21.  THIRD PARTY RIGHTS.

         The Trustee, the Sellers, the Servicer, the Depositor and the Owners
agree that the Certificate Insurer shall be deemed a third-party beneficiary of
this Agreement as if it were a party hereto.

         Section 11.22.  NOTICES.

                                   ARTICLE XII

                CERTAIN MATTERS REGARDING THE CERTIFICATE INSURER

         Section 12.01. TRUST ESTATE AND ACCOUNTS HELD FOR BENEFIT OF THE
CERTIFICATE INSURER.

         The Trustee shall hold the Trust Estate for the benefit of the related
Owners and the Certificate Insurer and all references in this Agreement and in
the Certificates to the benefit of Owners of the Certificates shall be deemed to
include the Certificate Insurer. The Trustee shall cooperate in all reasonable
respects with any reasonable request by the Certificate Insurer for action to
preserve or enforce the Certificate Insurer's rights or interests under this
Agreement and the Certificates.

         The Servicer hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall service and
administer the Home Equity Loans and any REO Properties, and shall maintain the
Principal and Interest Account, for the benefit of the Owners and for the
benefit of the Certificate Insurer, and all references in this Agreement to the
benefit of or actions on behalf of the Owners shall be deemed to include the
Certificate Insurer. Unless a Certificate Insurer Default exists, the Servicer
shall not terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreements without the prior consent of
the Certificate Insurer.

         Section 12.02.  CLAIMS UPON THE POLICIES; POLICY PAYMENTS ACCOUNT

         (a) In the event that an Insured Payment becomes due pursuant to the
terms of a Certificate Insurance Policy, the Trustee shall submit a Notice (in
the form attached to such Certificate Insurance Policy) in accordance with the
terms of such Certificate Insurance Policy.

         (b) The Trustee shall establish and maintain a separate special purpose
trust account for the benefit of the Owners of the Class A Certificates and the
Certificate Insurer referred to herein as the "Policy Payments Account" over
which the Trustee shall have exclusive control and sole right of withdrawal. The
Policy Payments Account shall be an Eligible Account. The Trustee shall deposit
any amount paid under the Certificate Insurance Policies into the Policy
Payments Account and distribute such amount only for purposes of payment to the
Owners of the related Class A Certificates of the Insured Payments for which a
claim was made and such amount may not be applied to satisfy any costs, expenses
or liabilities of the Servicer, the Seller, the Depositor, the Custodian, the
Trustee or the Trust. Amounts paid under the related Certificate Insurance
Policy shall be transferred to the Certificate Account in accordance with the
next succeeding paragraph and disbursed by the Trustee to Owners of the related
Class A Certificates in accordance with Section 7.03(e). It shall not be
necessary for such payments to be made by checks or wire transfers separate from

under the related Certificate Insurance Policy, the amount of funds received by
the Trustee as a result of any claim under the related Certificate Insurance
Policy, to the extent required to make the Insured Payment on such Distribution
Date shall be withdrawn from the Policy Payments Account and deposited in the
Certificate Account and applied by the Trustee, directly to the payment in full
of the Insured Payment due on the related Class of Class A Certificates in
accordance with Section 7.03(e). Funds received by the Trustee as a result of
any claim under either Certificate Insurance Policy shall be deposited by the

expenses or liabilities of the Servicer, the Seller, the Depositor, the
Custodian, the Trustee or the Trust. Any funds remaining in the Policy Payments
Account on the first Business Day following a Distribution Date shall be
remitted to the Certificate Insurer, pursuant to the instructions of the

proceeding or the institution of any action, of which an Authorized Officer of
the Trustee has actual knowledge, seeking the avoidance as a preferential
transfer under applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law (a
"Preference Claim") of any distribution made with respect to the Class A
Certificates. Each Owner of a Class A Certificate by its purchase of such
Certificate, the Servicer and the Trustee hereby agree that, the Certificate
Insurer (so long as no Certificate Insurer Default exists) may at any time
during the continuation of any proceeding relating to a Preference Claim direct
all matters relating to such Preference Claim, including without limitation, (i)
the direction of any appeal of any order relating to such Preference Claim and
(ii) the posting of any surety, supersedeas or performance bond pending any such
appeal. In addition and without limitation of the foregoing, the Certificate
Insurer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Servicer, the Trustee and each
Owner of a Class A Certificate in the conduct of any such Preference Claim,
including, without limitation, all rights of any party to an adversary
proceeding action with respect to any court order issued in connection with any
such Preference Claim.

         Section 12.03. EFFECT OF PAYMENTS BY THE CERTIFICATE INSURER;
SUBROGATION.

         Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any payment with
respect to principal of or interest on any of the Class A Certificates which is
made with moneys received pursuant to the terms of the Certificate Insurance
Policies shall not be considered payment of such Certificates from the Trust and
shall not result in the payment of or the provision for the payment of the
principal of or interest on such Certificates within the meaning of Section
7.03. The Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee acknowledge, and each Owner by
its acceptance of a Certificate agrees, that without the need for any further
action on the part of the Certificate Insurer, the Depositor, the Servicer, the
Trustee or the Registrar (a) to the extent the Certificate Insurer makes

                                       139
<PAGE>

payments, directly or indirectly, on account of principal of or interest on any
Class A Certificates to the Owners of such Certificates, the Certificate Insurer
will be fully subrogated to the rights of such holders to receive such principal
and interest from the Trust and (b) the Certificate Insurer shall be paid such
principal and interest but only from the sources and in the manner provided
herein for the payment of such principal and interest.

         The Trustee, the Seller, the Depositor and the Servicer shall cooperate
in all respects with any reasonable request by the Certificate Insurer for
action to preserve or enforce the Certificate Insurer's rights or interests
under this Agreement without limiting the rights or affecting the interests of
the Owners as otherwise set forth therein.

         Section 12.04.  NOTICES TO THE CERTIFICATE INSURER.

         All notices, statements, reports, certificates or opinions required by
this Agreement to be sent to any other party hereto or to any of the Owners
shall also be sent to the Certificate Insurer.

         Section 12.05.  THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY.

         The Certificate Insurer shall be a third-party beneficiary of this
Agreement, entitled to enforce the provisions hereof as if a party hereto.

         Section 12.06. RIGHTS TO THE CERTIFICATE INSURER TO EXERCISE RIGHTS OF
OWNERS.

         By accepting its Certificate, each Owner of a Class A Certificate
agrees that unless a Certificate Insurer Default exists, the Certificate Insurer
shall have the right to exercise all rights of the Owners of the Class A
Certificates as specified under this Agreement without any further consent of
the Owners of the Class A Certificates.

         The registered Owner named above is the registered beneficial Owner of
a fractional interest in (a) the Home Equity Loans in Group I listed in SCHEDULE
I-A to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement which the Seller is causing to be
delivered to the Depositor and the Depositor is causing to be delivered to the
Trustee, together with the related Home Equity Loan documents and the
Depositor's interest in any Property, and all payments thereon and proceeds of
the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing; (b) such amounts
allocable to Group I as may be held by the Trustee in the Certificate Account,
together with investment earnings on such amounts and such amounts as may be
held in the name of the Trustee in the Principal and Interest Account, if any,
inclusive of investment earnings thereon, whether in the form of cash,
instruments, securities or other properties (including any Eligible Investments
held by the Servicer), and (c) proceeds of all the foregoing (including, but not
by way of limitation, all proceeds of any mortgage insurance, flood insurance,
hazard insurance and title insurance policy relating to the Home Equity Loans,
cash proceeds, accounts, accounts receivable, notes, drafts, acceptances,
chattel paper, checks, deposit accounts, rights to payment of any and every
kind, and other forms of obligations and receivables which at any time
constitute all or part of or are included in the proceeds of any of the
foregoing) to pay the Certificates as specified in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement ((a) - (c) above shall be collectively referred to herein as the
"Trust Estate").

         The Owner hereof is entitled to principal payments on each Distribution
Date, as hereinafter described, which will fully amortize such original
Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-1 Certificates over the period from
the date of initial issuance of the Certificates to the final Distribution Date
for the Class A-1 Certificates. Therefore, the actual Outstanding principal
amount of this Certificate may, on any date subsequent to January 25, 20__ (the
first Distribution Date) be less than the original Certificate Principal Balance
of the Class A-1 Certificates set forth above.

         Upon receiving the final distribution hereon, the Owner hereof is
required to send this Certificate to the Trustee. The Pooling and Servicing
Agreement (as defined below) provides that, in any event, upon the making of the
final distribution due on this Certificate, this Certificate shall be deemed
canceled for all purposes under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE UNDERLYING HOME EQUITY LOANS ARE
INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION, THE
GOVERNMENT NATIONAL MORTGAGE ASSOCIATION OR ANY OTHER GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY.

         THE PRINCIPAL OF THIS CERTIFICATE IS PAYABLE IN INSTALLMENTS.
THEREFORE, THE ACTUAL OUTSTANDING PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY ON
ANY DATE SUBSEQUENT TO JANUARY 25, 20__ (THE

                                       A-1-4

FIRST DISTRIBUTION DATE) BE LESS THAN ITS ORIGINAL CERTIFICATE PRINCIPAL
BALANCE.

         NOTWITHSTANDING REFERENCES HEREIN TO PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST, NO DEBT OF
ANY PERSON IS REPRESENTED HEREBY.

         This Certificate is one of a Class of duly-authorized Certificates
designated as Centex Home Equity Loan Trust 2000-__, Home Equity Loan
Asset-Backed Certificates, Class A-1 (the "Class A-1 Certificates") and issued

Servicer (the "Servicer"), CHEC Funding, LLC, in its capacity as Depositor (the
"Depositor"), CHEC Fund, LLC and __________, in its capacity as the Trustee (the
"Trustee"), to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement the Owner of this
Certificate by virtue of acceptance hereof assents and by which such Owner is
bound. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are Certificates
designated as Centex Home Equity Loan Trust 2000-__ Home Equity Loan
Asset-Backed Certificates, Class A-2 (the "Class A-2 Certificates"), Class A-3
(the "Class A-3 Certificates"), Class A-4 (the "Class A-4 Certificates"), Class
A-5 (the "Class A-5 Certificates"), Class A-6 (the "Class A-6 Certificates"),
Class A-7 (the "Class A-7 Certificates"), Class X-IO (the "Class X-IO

the Class A-6 Certificates and the Class A-7 Certificates shall be together
referred to as the "Class A Certificates" and the Class A Certificates, the
Class X-IO Certificates and the Class R Certificates are together referred to
herein as the "Certificates." Terms capitalized herein and not otherwise defined
herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.

         On the 25th day of each month, or, if such day is not a Business Day,
then the next succeeding Business Day (each such day being a "Distribution
Date") commencing January 25, 20__, the Owners of the Class A-1 Certificates as
of the close of business on the last Business Day of the calendar month
immediately preceding the calendar month in which a Distribution Date occurs
(the "Record Date") will be entitled to receive the Class A-1 Distribution
Amount relating to such Certificate on such Distribution Date. Distributions
will be made in immediately available funds to Owners of Certificates having an
aggregate original Certificate Principal Balance of at least [$1,000,000] (by
wire transfer or otherwise) to the account of an Owner at a domestic bank or
other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Owner has so
notified the Trustee, or by check mailed to the address of the person entitled
thereto as it appears on the Register.

         Each Owner of record of a Class A-1 Certificate will be entitled to
receive such Owner's Percentage Interest in the amounts due on such Distribution
Date to the Owners of the Class A-1 Certificates. The Percentage Interest of
each Class A-1 Certificate as of any date of determination will be equal to the
percentage obtained by dividing the original Certificate

                                       A-1-5
<PAGE>

Principal Balance of such Class A-1 Certificate on the Startup Day by the
aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-1 Certificates on the
Startup Day.

         The Certificate Insurer is required, subject to the terms of the
related Certificate Insurance Policy to make Insured Payments available to the
Trustee on or prior to the related Distribution Date for distribution to the
Owners provided that timely notice has been given to the Certificate Insurer by
the Trustee. "Insured Payments" shall have the meaning as provided therefor in
the related Certificate Insurance Policy.

         Upon receipt of amounts under the related Certificate Insurance Policy
on behalf of the Owners of the Class A Certificates, the Trustee shall
distribute in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement such amounts
(directly or through a Paying Agent) to the Owners of the appropriate Class of
the Class A Certificates.

         The Trustee or any duly-appointed Paying Agent will duly and punctually
pay distributions with respect to this Certificate in accordance with the terms
hereof and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Amounts properly withheld under
the Code by any Person from a distribution to any Owner shall be considered as
having been paid by the Trustee to such Owner for all purposes of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.

         The Home Equity Loans will be serviced by the Servicer pursuant to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits the
Servicer to enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements with certain institutions
eligible for appointment as Sub-Servicers for the servicing and administration
of certain Home Equity Loans. No appointment of any Sub-Servicer shall release
the Servicer from any of its obligations under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.

         This Certificate does not represent a deposit or other obligation of,
or an interest in, nor are the underlying Home Equity Loans insured or
guaranteed by CHEC Funding, LLC or Centex Credit Corporation d/b/a Centex Home
Equity Corporation or any of their affiliates. This Certificate is limited in
right of payment to certain collections and recoveries relating to the Home
Equity Loans and amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account and the Principal
and Interest Account (except as otherwise provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement) and payments received by the Trustee pursuant to the related
Certificate Insurance Policy, all as more specifically set forth hereinabove and
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         No Owner shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, with respect to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement except in compliance with the terms thereof.

         Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Owner of any Certificate shall have the right which is absolute
and unconditional to receive distributions to the extent provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Certificate or to institute suit
for the enforcement of any such distribution, and such right shall

                                       A-1-6
<PAGE>

not be impaired without the consent of such Owner. The Owner of this
Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, agrees, however, that to the extent
the Certificate Insurer makes Insured Payments, either directly or indirectly
(as by paying through the Trustee or Paying Agent), to the Owners of such
Class A-1 Certificates, the Certificate Insurer will be subrogated to the
rights of such Owners of Class A-1 Certificates with respect to such Insured
Payment, shall be deemed to the extent of the payments so made to be a
registered Owner of such Class A-1 Certificates and shall receive all future
distributions of the Class A-1 Distribution Amount until all such Insured
Payments by the Certificate Insurer have been fully reimbursed.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the obligations
created thereby will terminate upon the payment to the Owners of all
Certificates from amounts other than those available under the Certificate
Insurance Policies of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to
such Owners pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and payment in full
of all amounts owed to the Certificate Insurer upon the latest to occur of (a)
the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance made with respect
thereto) of the last Home Equity Loan in the Trust Estate, (b) the disposition
of all property acquired in respect of any Home Equity Loan remaining in the
Trust Estate or (c) at any time if a Qualified Liquidation of the Trust Estate
is effected as described below. To effect a termination of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement pursuant to clause (c) above, the Owners of all Certificates
then Outstanding shall provide the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer, at such
Owners' expense, an Opinion of Counsel experienced in federal income tax matters
acceptable to the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee to the affect that each
such liquidation constitutes a Qualified Liquidation, and the Servicer shall
either sell the Home Equity Loans and the Trustee shall distribute the proceeds
of the liquidation of the Trust Estate, or the Servicer shall distribute
equitably in kind all of the assets of the Trust Estate to the remaining Owners
of the Certificates to the effect that each such liquidation constitutes a
Qualified Liquidation, each in accordance with such plan, so that the
liquidation or distribution of the Trust Estate, the distribution of any
proceeds of the liquidation and the termination of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement occur no later than the close of the 90th day after the date of
adoption of the plan of liquidation and such liquidation qualifies as a
Qualified Liquidation.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement additionally provides that the
Servicer may, at its option, purchase from the Trust all remaining Home Equity
Loans and other property then constituting the Trust Estate, and thereby effect
early retirement of the Certificates, on any Monthly Remittance Date after the
Clean-Up Call Date. In addition, under certain circumstances relating to the
qualification of REMIC I and REMIC II as REMICs under the Code, the Home Equity
Loans may be sold, thereby effecting the early retirement of the Certificates.

         The Trustee shall give written notice of termination of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement to each Owner in the manner set forth therein.

         The Certificate Insurer or the Owners of the majority of the Percentage
Interests represented by the Class A Certificates with the prior written consent
of the Certificate Insurer have the right to exercise any trust or power set
forth in Section 6.11 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office designated as the

therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modifications of rights and
obligations of the parties provided therein by the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Seller and the Servicer at any time and from time to time, with the prior
written approval of the Certificate Insurer and without the consent of the
Owners; provided that in certain other circumstances provided for in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement such consent of the Owners will be required prior to
amendments. Any such consent by the Owner at the time of the giving thereof, of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding upon such Owner and upon all
future Owners of the Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Certificate.

         The Trustee is required to furnish certain information on each
Distribution Date to the Owner of this Certificate, as more fully described in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         The Class A-1 Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates
in minimum denominations of [$1,000] original Certificate Principal Balance. As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, Class A-1 Certificates are exchangeable for new
Class A-1 Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate
principal amount.

         No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Registrar or Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

         The Trustee and any agent of the Trustee may treat the Person in whose
name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and
neither the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary, except as may otherwise be specifically provided in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement with respect to the Certificate Insurer.

                                Registered Owner

         The registered Owner named above is the registered beneficial Owner of
a fractional interest in (a) the Home Equity Loans in Group I listed in SCHEDULE
I-A to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement which the Seller is causing to be
delivered to the Depositor and the Depositor is causing to be delivered to the
Trustee, together with the related Home Equity Loan documents and the
Depositor's interest in any Property, and all payments thereon and proceeds of
the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing; (b) such amounts
allocable to Group I as may be held by the Trustee in the Certificate Account,
together with investment earnings on such amounts and such amounts as may be
held in the name of the Trustee in the Principal and Interest Account, if any,
inclusive of investment earnings thereon, whether in the form of cash,
instruments, securities or other properties (including any Eligible Investments
held by the Servicer), and (c) proceeds of all the foregoing (including, but not
by way of limitation, all proceeds of any mortgage insurance, flood insurance,
hazard insurance and title insurance policy relating to the Home Equity Loans,
cash proceeds, accounts, accounts receivable, notes, drafts, acceptances,
chattel paper, checks, deposit accounts, rights to payment of any and every
kind, and other forms of obligations and receivables which at any time
constitute all or part of or are included in the proceeds of any of the
foregoing) to pay the Certificates as specified in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement ((a) - (c) above shall be collectively referred to herein as the
"Trust Estate").

         The Owner hereof is entitled to principal payments on each Distribution
Date, as hereinafter described, which will fully amortize such original
Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-2 Certificates over the period from
the date of initial issuance of the Certificates to the final Distribution Date
for the Class A-2 Certificates. Therefore, the actual Outstanding principal
amount of this Certificate may, on any date subsequent to January 25, 20__ (the
first Distribution Date) be less than the original Certificate Principal Balance
of the Class A-2 Certificates set forth above.

         Upon receiving the final distribution hereon, the Owner hereof is
required to send this Certificate to the Trustee. The Pooling and Servicing
Agreement (as defined below) provides that, in any event, upon the making of the
final distribution due on this Certificate, this Certificate shall be deemed
canceled for all purposes under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE UNDERLYING HOME EQUITY LOANS ARE
INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION, THE
GOVERNMENT NATIONAL MORTGAGE ASSOCIATION OR ANY OTHER GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY.

         THE PRINCIPAL OF THIS CERTIFICATE IS PAYABLE IN INSTALLMENTS.
THEREFORE, THE ACTUAL OUTSTANDING PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY ON
ANY DATE SUBSEQUENT TO JANUARY 25, 20__ (THE FIRST DISTRIBUTION DATE) BE LESS
THAN ITS ORIGINAL CERTIFICATE PRINCIPAL BALANCE.

         NOTWITHSTANDING REFERENCES HEREIN TO PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST, NO DEBT OF

         This Certificate is one of a Class of duly-authorized Certificates
designated as Centex Home Equity Loan Trust 2000-__, Home Equity Loan
Asset-Backed Certificates, Class A-2 (the "Class A-2 Certificates") and issued
under and subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of that certain
Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of __________, 20__ (the "Pooling and
Servicing Agreement") by and among Centex Credit Corporation d/b/a Centex Home
Equity Corporation, in its capacity as the Seller (the "Seller") and as the
Servicer (the "Servicer"), CHEC Funding, LLC, in its capacity as Depositor (the
"Depositor"), and _______________, in its capacity as the Trustee (the
"Trustee"), to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement the Owner of this
Certificate by virtue of acceptance hereof assents and by which such Owner is
bound. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are Certificates
designated as Centex Home Equity Loan Trust 2000-__ Home Equity Loan
Asset-Backed Certificates, Class A-1 (the "Class A-1 Certificates"), Class A-3
(the "Class A-3 Certificates"), Class A-4 (the "Class A-4 Certificates"), Class
A-5 (the "Class A-5 Certificates"), Class A-6 (the "Class A-6 Certificates"),
Class A-7 (the "Class A-7 Certificates"), Class X-IO (the "Class X-IO
Certificates"), and Class R-1 and Class R-2 (together, the "Class R
Certificates"). The Class A-1 Certificates, the Class A-2 Certificates, the
Class A-3 Certificates, the Class A-4 Certificates, the Class A-5 Certificates,
the Class A-6 Certificates and the Class A-7 Certificates shall be together
referred to as the "Class A Certificates" and the Class A Certificates, the
Class X-IO Certificates and the Class R Certificates are together referred to
herein as the "Certificates." Terms capitalized herein and not otherwise defined
herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.

         On the 25th day of each month, or, if such day is not a Business Day,
then the next succeeding Business Day (each such day being a "Distribution
Date") commencing January 25, 20__, the Owners of the Class A-2 Certificates as
of the close of business on the last Business Day of the calendar month
immediately preceding the calendar month in which a Distribution Date occurs
(the "Record Date") will be entitled to receive the Class A-2 Distribution
Amount relating to such Certificate on such Distribution Date. Distributions
will be made in immediately available funds to Owners of Certificates having an
aggregate original Certificate Principal Balance of at least [$1,000,000] (by
wire transfer or otherwise) to the account of an Owner at a domestic bank or
other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Owner has so
notified the Trustee, or by check mailed to the address of the person entitled
thereto as it appears on the Register.

         Each Owner of record of a Class A-2 Certificate will be entitled to
receive such Owner's Percentage Interest in the amounts due on such Distribution
Date to the Owners of the Class A-2 Certificates. The Percentage Interest of
each Class A-2 Certificate as of any date of determination will be equal to the
percentage obtained by dividing the original Certificate Principal Balance of
such Class A-2 Certificate on the Startup Day by the aggregate Certificate
Principal Balance of the Class A-2 Certificates on the Startup Day.

         The Certificate Insurer is required, subject to the terms of the
related Certificate Insurance Policy to make Insured Payments available to the
Trustee on or prior to the related Distribution

                                       A-2-3
<PAGE>

Date for distribution to the Owners provided that timely notice has been
given to the Certificate Insurer by the Trustee. "Insured Payments" shall
have the meaning as provided therefor in the related Certificate Insurance
Policy.

         Upon receipt of amounts under the related Certificate Insurance Policy
on behalf of the Owners of the Class A Certificates, the Trustee shall
distribute in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement such amounts
(directly or through a Paying Agent) to the Owners of the appropriate Class of
the Class A Certificates.

         The Trustee or any duly-appointed Paying Agent will duly and punctually
pay distributions with respect to this Certificate in accordance with the terms
hereof and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Amounts properly withheld under
the Code by any Person from a distribution to any Owner shall be considered as
having been paid by the Trustee to such Owner for all purposes of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.

         The Home Equity Loans will be serviced by the Servicer pursuant to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits the
Servicer to enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements with certain institutions
eligible for appointment as Sub-Servicers for the servicing and administration
of certain Home Equity Loans. No appointment of any Sub-Servicer shall release
the Servicer from any of its obligations under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.

         This Certificate does not represent a deposit or other obligation of,
or an interest in, nor are the underlying Home Equity Loans insured or
guaranteed by CHEC Funding, LLC or Centex Credit Corporation d/b/a Centex Home
Equity Corporation or any of their affiliates. This Certificate is limited in
right of payment to certain collections and recoveries relating to the Home
Equity Loans and amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account and the Principal
and Interest Account (except as otherwise provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement) and payments received by the Trustee pursuant to the related
Certificate Insurance Policy, all as more specifically set forth hereinabove and
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         No Owner shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, with respect to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement except in compliance with the terms thereof.

         Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Owner of any Certificate shall have the right which is absolute
and unconditional to receive distributions to the extent provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Certificate or to institute suit
for the enforcement of any such distribution, and such right shall not be
impaired without the consent of such Owner. The Owner of this Certificate, by
its acceptance hereof, agrees, however, that to the extent the Certificate
Insurer makes Insured Payments, either directly or indirectly (as by paying
through the Trustee or Paying Agent), to the Owners of such Class A-2
Certificates, the Certificate Insurer will be subrogated to the rights of such
Owners of Class A-2 Certificates with respect to such Insured Payment, shall be
deemed to the extent of the payments so made to be a registered Owner of such
Class A-2 Certificates and

                                       A-2-4
<PAGE>

shall receive all future distributions of the Class A-2 Distribution Amount
until all such Insured Payments by the Certificate Insurer have been fully
reimbursed.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the obligations
created thereby will terminate upon the payment to the Owners of all
Certificates from amounts other than those available under the Certificate
Insurance Policies of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to
such Owners pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and payment in full
of all amounts owed to the Certificate Insurer upon the latest to occur of (a)
the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance made with respect
thereto) of the last Home Equity Loan in the Trust Estate, (b) the disposition
of all property acquired in respect of any Home Equity Loan remaining in the
Trust Estate or (c) at any time if a Qualified Liquidation of the Trust Estate
is effected as described below. To effect a termination of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement pursuant to clause (c) above, the Owners of all Certificates
then Outstanding shall provide the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer, at such
Owners' expense, an Opinion of Counsel experienced in federal income tax matters
acceptable to the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee to the affect that each
such liquidation constitutes a Qualified Liquidation, and the Servicer shall
either sell the Home Equity Loans and the Trustee shall distribute the proceeds
of the liquidation of the Trust Estate, or the Servicer shall distribute
equitably in kind all of the assets of the Trust Estate to the remaining Owners
of the Certificates to the effect that each such liquidation constitutes a
Qualified Liquidation, each in accordance with such plan, so that the
liquidation or distribution of the Trust Estate, the distribution of any
proceeds of the liquidation and the termination of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement occur no later than the close of the 90th day after the date of
adoption of the plan of liquidation and such liquidation qualifies as a
Qualified Liquidation.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement additionally provides that the
Servicer may, at its option, purchase from the Trust all remaining Home Equity
Loans and other property then constituting the Trust Estate, and thereby effect
early retirement of the Certificates, on any Monthly Remittance Date after the
Clean-Up Call Date. In addition, under certain circumstances relating to the
qualification of REMIC I and REMIC II as REMICs under the Code, the Home Equity
Loans may be sold, thereby effecting the early retirement of the Certificates.

         The Trustee shall give written notice of termination of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement to each Owner in the manner set forth therein.

         The Certificate Insurer or the Owners of the majority of the Percentage
Interests represented by the Class A Certificates with the prior written consent
of the Certificate Insurer have the right to exercise any trust or power set
forth in Section 6.11 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to
certain limitations therein set forth and referred to on the face hereof, the
transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Register upon surrender of
this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office designated as the
location of the Register duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by,
the Owner hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one
or more new Certificates of the like Class, tenor and a like Percentage Interest
will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits, with certain exceptions as
therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modifications of rights and
obligations of the parties provided therein by the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Seller and the Servicer at any time and from time to time, with the prior
written approval of the Certificate Insurer and without the consent of the
Owners; provided that in certain other circumstances provided for in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement such consent of the Owners will be required prior to
amendments. Any such consent by the Owner at the time of the giving thereof, of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding upon such Owner and upon all
future Owners of the Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Certificate.

         The Trustee is required to furnish certain information on each
Distribution Date to the Owner of this Certificate, as more fully described in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         The Class A-2 Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates

provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, Class A-2 Certificates are exchangeable for new
Class A-2 Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate

         No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or

to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

         The Trustee and any agent of the Trustee may treat the Person in whose
name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and
neither the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary, except as may otherwise be specifically provided in the Pooling and

held in the name of the Trustee in the Principal and Interest Account, if any,
inclusive of investment earnings thereon, whether in the form of cash,
instruments, securities or other properties (including any Eligible Investments

Date, as hereinafter described, which will fully amortize such original
Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-3 Certificates over the period from
the date of initial issuance of the Certificates to the final Distribution Date

amount of this Certificate may, on any date subsequent to January 25, 20__ (the

         On the 25th day of each month, or, if such day is not a Business Day,
then the next succeeding Business Day (each such day being a "Distribution
Date") commencing January 25, 20__, the Owners of the Class A-3 Certificates as
of the close of business on the last Business Day of the calendar month
immediately preceding the calendar month in which a Distribution Date occurs
(the "Record Date") will be entitled to receive the Class A-3 Distribution
Amount relating to such Certificate on such Distribution Date. Distributions
will be made in immediately available funds to Owners of Certificates having an
aggregate original Certificate Principal Balance of at least [$1,000,000] (by

other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Owner has so
notified the Trustee, or by check mailed to the address of the person entitled
thereto as it appears on the Register.

         Each Owner of record of a Class A-3 Certificate will be entitled to
receive such Owner's Percentage Interest in the amounts due on such Distribution
Date to the Owners of the Class A-3 Certificates. The Percentage Interest of
each Class A-3 Certificate as of any date of determination will be equal to the
percentage obtained by dividing the original Certificate Principal Balance of
such Class A-3 Certificate on the Startup Day by the aggregate Certificate
Principal Balance of the Class A-3 Certificates on the Startup Day.

         The Certificate Insurer is required, subject to the terms of the
related Certificate Insurance Policy to make Insured Payments available to the
Trustee on or prior to the related Distribution

                                       A-3-3
<PAGE>

Date for distribution to the Owners provided that timely notice has been
given to the Certificate Insurer by the Trustee. "Insured Payments" shall
have the meaning as provided therefor in the related Certificate Insurance
Policy.

         Upon receipt of amounts under the related Certificate Insurance Policy
on behalf of the Owners of the Class A Certificates, the Trustee shall
distribute in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement such amounts
(directly or through a Paying Agent) to the Owners of the appropriate Class of
the Class A Certificates.

         The Trustee or any duly-appointed Paying Agent will duly and punctually
pay distributions with respect to this Certificate in accordance with the terms
hereof and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Amounts properly withheld under
the Code by any Person from a distribution to any Owner shall be considered as
having been paid by the Trustee to such Owner for all purposes of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.

         The Home Equity Loans will be serviced by the Servicer pursuant to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits the
Servicer to enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements with certain institutions
eligible for appointment as Sub-Servicers for the servicing and administration
of certain Home Equity Loans. No appointment of any Sub-Servicer shall release
the Servicer from any of its obligations under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.

         This Certificate does not represent a deposit or other obligation of,
or an interest in, nor are the underlying Home Equity Loans insured or
guaranteed by CHEC Funding, LLC or Centex Credit Corporation d/b/a Centex Home
Equity Corporation or any of their affiliates. This Certificate is limited in
right of payment to certain collections and recoveries relating to the Home
Equity Loans and amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account and the Principal
and Interest Account (except as otherwise provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement) and payments received by the Trustee pursuant to the related
Certificate Insurance Policy, all as more specifically set forth hereinabove and
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         No Owner shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, with respect to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement except in compliance with the terms thereof.

         Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Owner of any Certificate shall have the right which is absolute
and unconditional to receive distributions to the extent provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Certificate or to institute suit
for the enforcement of any such distribution, and such right shall not be
impaired without the consent of such Owner. The Owner of this Certificate, by
its acceptance hereof, agrees, however, that to the extent the Certificate
Insurer makes Insured Payments, either directly or indirectly (as by paying
through the Trustee or Paying Agent), to the Owners of such Class A-3
Certificates, the Certificate Insurer will be subrogated to the rights of such
Owners of Class A-3 Certificates with respect to such Insured Payment, shall be
deemed to the extent of the payments so made to be a registered Owner of such
Class A-3 Certificates and

                                       A-3-4
<PAGE>

shall receive all future distributions of the Class A-3 Distribution Amount
until all such Insured Payments by the Certificate Insurer have been fully
reimbursed.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the obligations
created thereby will terminate upon the payment to the Owners of all
Certificates from amounts other than those available under the Certificate
Insurance Policies of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to
such Owners pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and payment in full
of all amounts owed to the Certificate Insurer upon the latest to occur of (a)
the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance made with respect
thereto) of the last Home Equity Loan in the Trust Estate, (b) the disposition
of all property acquired in respect of any Home Equity Loan remaining in the
Trust Estate or (c) at any time if a Qualified Liquidation of the Trust Estate
is effected as described below. To effect a termination of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement pursuant to clause (c) above, the Owners of all Certificates
then Outstanding shall provide the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer, at such
Owners' expense, an Opinion of Counsel experienced in federal income tax matters
acceptable to the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee to the affect that each
such liquidation constitutes a Qualified Liquidation, and the Servicer shall
either sell the Home Equity Loans and the Trustee shall distribute the proceeds
of the liquidation of the Trust Estate, or the Servicer shall distribute
equitably in kind all of the assets of the Trust Estate to the remaining Owners
of the Certificates to the effect that each such liquidation constitutes a
Qualified Liquidation, each in accordance with such plan, so that the
liquidation or distribution of the Trust Estate, the distribution of any
proceeds of the liquidation and the termination of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement occur no later than the close of the 90th day after the date of
adoption of the plan of liquidation and such liquidation qualifies as a
Qualified Liquidation.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement additionally provides that the
Servicer may, at its option, purchase from the Trust all remaining Home Equity
Loans and other property then constituting the Trust Estate, and thereby effect
early retirement of the Certificates, on any Monthly Remittance Date after the
Clean-Up Call Date. In addition, under certain circumstances relating to the
qualification of REMIC I and REMIC II as REMICs under the Code, the Home Equity
Loans may be sold, thereby effecting the early retirement of the Certificates.

         The Trustee shall give written notice of termination of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement to each Owner in the manner set forth therein.

         The Certificate Insurer or the Owners of the majority of the Percentage
Interests represented by the Class A Certificates with the prior written consent
of the Certificate Insurer have the right to exercise any trust or power set
forth in Section 6.11 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to
certain limitations therein set forth and referred to on the face hereof, the
transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Register upon surrender of
this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office designated as the
location of the Register duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by,
the Owner hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one
or more new Certificates of the like Class, tenor and a like Percentage Interest
will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits, with certain exceptions as
therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modifications of rights and
obligations of the parties provided therein by the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Seller and the Servicer at any time and from time to time, with the prior
written approval of the Certificate Insurer and without the consent of the
Owners; provided that in certain other circumstances provided for in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement such consent of the Owners will be required prior to
amendments. Any such consent by the Owner at the time of the giving thereof, of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding upon such Owner and upon all
future Owners of the Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Certificate.

         The Trustee is required to furnish certain information on each
Distribution Date to the Owner of this Certificate, as more fully described in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         The Class A-3 Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates
in minimum denominations of [$1,000] original Certificate Principal Balance. As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, Class A-3 Certificates are exchangeable for new
Class A-3 Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate
principal amount.

         No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Registrar or Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

         The Trustee and any agent of the Trustee may treat the Person in whose
name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and
neither the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary, except as may otherwise be specifically provided in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement with respect to the Certificate Insurer.

and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Certificate or to institute suit
for the enforcement of any such distribution, and such right shall not be
impaired without the consent of such Owner. The Owner of this Certificate, by
its acceptance hereof, agrees, however, that to the extent the Certificate
Insurer makes Insured Payments, either directly or indirectly (as by paying
through the Trustee or Paying Agent), to the Owners of such Class A-4
Certificates, the Certificate Insurer will be subrogated to the rights of such
Owners of Class A-4 Certificates with respect to such Insured Payment, shall be
deemed to the extent of the payments so made to be a registered Owner of such
Class A-4 Certificates and

such Owners pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and payment in full

thereto) of the last Home Equity Loan in the Trust Estate, (b) the disposition

then Outstanding shall provide the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer, at such
Owners' expense, an Opinion of Counsel experienced in federal income tax matters
acceptable to the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee to the affect that each
such liquidation constitutes a Qualified Liquidation, and the Servicer shall
either sell the Home Equity Loans and the Trustee shall distribute the proceeds
of the liquidation of the Trust Estate, or the Servicer shall distribute
equitably in kind all of the assets of the Trust Estate to the remaining Owners
of the Certificates to the effect that each such liquidation constitutes a
Qualified Liquidation, each in accordance with such plan, so that the
liquidation or distribution of the Trust Estate, the distribution of any
proceeds of the liquidation and the termination of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement occur no later than the close of the 90th day after the date of
adoption of the plan of liquidation and such liquidation qualifies as a
Qualified Liquidation.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement additionally provides that the
Servicer may, at its option, purchase from the Trust all remaining Home Equity
Loans and other property then constituting the Trust Estate, and thereby effect
early retirement of the Certificates, on any Monthly Remittance Date after the
Clean-Up Call Date. In addition, under certain circumstances relating to the
qualification of REMIC I and REMIC II as REMICs under the Code, the Home Equity
Loans may be sold, thereby effecting the early retirement of the Certificates.

         The Trustee shall give written notice of termination of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement to each Owner in the manner set forth therein.

         The Certificate Insurer or the Owners of the majority of the Percentage
Interests represented by the Class A Certificates with the prior written consent
of the Certificate Insurer have the right to exercise any trust or power set
forth in Section 6.11 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to
certain limitations therein set forth and referred to on the face hereof, the
transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Register upon surrender of
this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office designated as the
location of the Register duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by,
the Owner hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one
or more new Certificates of the like Class, tenor and a like Percentage Interest
will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modifications of rights and
obligations of the parties provided therein by the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Seller and the Servicer at any time and from time to time, with the prior
written approval of the Certificate Insurer and without the consent of the
Owners; provided that in certain other circumstances provided for in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement such consent of the Owners will be required prior to
amendments. Any such consent by the Owner at the time of the giving thereof, of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding upon such Owner and upon all
future Owners of the Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Certificate.

         The Trustee is required to furnish certain information on each
Distribution Date to the Owner of this Certificate, as more fully described in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         The Class A-4 Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates
in minimum denominations of [$1,000] original Certificate Principal Balance. As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, Class A-4 Certificates are exchangeable for new
Class A-4 Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate
principal amount.

         No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Registrar or Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

         The Trustee and any agent of the Trustee may treat the Person in whose
name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and
neither the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary, except as may otherwise be specifically provided in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement with respect to the Certificate Insurer.

                                Registered Owner

         The registered Owner named above is the registered beneficial Owner
of a fractional interest in (a) the Home Equity Loans in Group I listed in
SCHEDULE I-A to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement which the Seller is
causing to be delivered to the Depositor and the Depositor is causing to be
delivered to the Trustee, together with the related Home Equity Loan
documents and the Depositor's interest in any Property, and all payments
thereon and proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the
foregoing; (b) such amounts allocable to Group I as may be held by the
Trustee in the Certificate Account, together with investment earnings on such
amounts and such amounts as may be held in the name of the Trustee in the
Principal and Interest Account, if any, inclusive of investment earnings
thereon, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other
properties (including any Eligible Investments held by the Servicer), and (c)
proceeds of all the foregoing (including, but not by way of limitation, all
proceeds of any mortgage insurance, flood insurance, hazard insurance and
title insurance policy relating to the Home Equity Loans, cash proceeds,
accounts, accounts receivable, notes, drafts, acceptances, chattel paper,
checks, deposit accounts, rights to payment of any and every kind, and other
forms of obligations and receivables which at any time constitute all or part
of or are included in the proceeds of any of the foregoing) to pay the
Certificates as specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement ((a) - (c)
above shall be collectively referred to herein as the "Trust Estate").

         The Owner hereof is entitled to principal payments on each
Distribution Date, as hereinafter described, which will fully amortize such
original Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-5 Certificates over the
period from the date of initial issuance of the Certificates to the final
Distribution Date for the Class A-5 Certificates. Therefore, the actual
Outstanding principal amount of this Certificate may, on any date subsequent
to January 25, 20__ (the first Distribution Date) be less than the original
Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-5 Certificates set forth above.

         Upon receiving the final distribution hereon, the Owner hereof is
required to send this Certificate to the Trustee. The Pooling and Servicing
Agreement (as defined below) provides that, in any event, upon the making of
the final distribution due on this Certificate, this Certificate shall be
deemed canceled for all purposes under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE UNDERLYING HOME EQUITY LOANS ARE
INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION, THE
GOVERNMENT NATIONAL MORTGAGE ASSOCIATION OR ANY OTHER GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY.

         THE PRINCIPAL OF THIS CERTIFICATE IS PAYABLE IN INSTALLMENTS.
THEREFORE, THE ACTUAL OUTSTANDING PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY ON
ANY DATE SUBSEQUENT TO JANUARY 25, 20__ (THE FIRST DISTRIBUTION DATE) BE LESS
THAN ITS ORIGINAL CERTIFICATE PRINCIPAL BALANCE.

         NOTWITHSTANDING REFERENCES HEREIN TO PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST, NO DEBT
OF ANY PERSON IS REPRESENTED HEREBY.

         This Certificate is one of a Class of duly-authorized Certificates
designated as Centex Home Equity Loan Trust 2000-__, Home Equity Loan
Asset-Backed Certificates, Class A-5 (the "Class A-5 Certificates") and
issued under and subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of that
certain Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of __________, 20__ (the
"Pooling and Servicing Agreement") by and among Centex Credit Corporation
d/b/a Centex Home Equity Corporation, in its capacity as the Seller (the
"Seller") and as the Servicer (the "Servicer"), CHEC Funding, LLC, in its
capacity as Depositor (the "Depositor"), and _______________, in its capacity
as the Trustee (the "Trustee"), to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement the
Owner of this Certificate by virtue of acceptance hereof assents and by which
such Owner is bound. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
are Certificates designated as Centex Home Equity Loan Trust 2000-__ Home
Equity Loan Asset-Backed Certificates, Class A-1 (the "Class A-1
Certificates"), Class A-2 (the "Class A-2 Certificates"), Class A-3 (the
"Class A-3 Certificates"), Class A-4 (the "Class A-4 Certificates"), Class
A-6 (the "Class A-6 Certificates"), Class A-7 (the "Class A-7 Certificates"),
Class X-IO (the "Class X-IO Certificates"), and Class R-1 and Class R-2
(together, the "Class R Certificates"). The Class A-1 Certificates, the Class
A-2 Certificates, the Class A-3 Certificates, the Class A-4 Certificates, the
Class A-5 Certificates, the Class A-6 Certificates and the Class A-7
Certificates shall be together referred to as the "Class A Certificates" and
the Class A Certificates, the Class X-IO Certificates and the Class R
Certificates are together referred to herein as the "Certificates." Terms
capitalized herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective
meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         On the 25th day of each month, or, if such day is not a Business
Day, then the next succeeding Business Day (each such day being a
"Distribution Date") commencing January 25, 20__, the Owners of the Class A-5
Certificates as of the close of business on the last Business Day of the
calendar month immediately preceding the calendar month in which a
Distribution Date occurs (the "Record Date") will be entitled to receive the
Class A-5 Distribution Amount relating to such Certificate on such
Distribution Date. Distributions will be made in immediately available funds
to Owners of Certificates having an aggregate original Certificate Principal
Balance of at least [$1,000,000] (by wire transfer or otherwise) to the
account of an Owner at a domestic bank or other entity having appropriate
facilities therefor, if such Owner has so notified the Trustee, or by check
mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as it appears on the
Register.

         Each Owner of record of a Class A-5 Certificate will be entitled to
receive such Owner's Percentage Interest in the amounts due on such
Distribution Date to the Owners of the Class A-5 Certificates. The Percentage
Interest of each Class A-5 Certificate as of any date of determination will
be equal to the percentage obtained by dividing the original Certificate
Principal Balance of such Class A-5 Certificate on the Startup Day by the
aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-5 Certificates on the
Startup Day.

         The Certificate Insurer is required, subject to the terms of the
related Certificate Insurance Policy to make Insured Payments available to
the Trustee on or prior to the related Distribution

                                   A-5-3

<PAGE>

Date for distribution to the Owners provided that timely notice has been
given to the Certificate Insurer by the Trustee. "Insured Payments" shall
have the meaning as provided therefor in the related Certificate Insurance
Policy.

         Upon receipt of amounts under the related Certificate Insurance
Policy on behalf of the Owners of the Class A Certificates, the Trustee shall
distribute in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement such
amounts (directly or through a Paying Agent) to the Owners of the appropriate
Class of the Class A Certificates.

         The Trustee or any duly-appointed Paying Agent will duly and
punctually pay distributions with respect to this Certificate in accordance
with the terms hereof and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Amounts
properly withheld under the Code by any Person from a distribution to any
Owner shall be considered as having been paid by the Trustee to such Owner
for all purposes of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         The Home Equity Loans will be serviced by the Servicer pursuant to
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Pooling and Servicing Agreement
permits the Servicer to enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements with certain
institutions eligible for appointment as Sub-Servicers for the servicing and
administration of certain Home Equity Loans. No appointment of any
Sub-Servicer shall release the Servicer from any of its obligations under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         This Certificate does not represent a deposit or other obligation
of, or an interest in, nor are the underlying Home Equity Loans insured or
guaranteed by CHEC Funding, LLC or Centex Credit Corporation d/b/a Centex
Home Equity Corporation or any of their affiliates. This Certificate is
limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries relating to
the Home Equity Loans and amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account and
the Principal and Interest Account (except as otherwise provided in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and payments received by the Trustee
pursuant to the related Certificate Insurance Policy, all as more
specifically set forth hereinabove and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         No Owner shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial
or otherwise, with respect to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement except in compliance with the terms thereof.

         Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Owner of any Certificate shall have the right which is
absolute and unconditional to receive distributions to the extent provided in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Certificate or to
institute suit for the enforcement of any such distribution, and such right
shall not be impaired without the consent of such Owner. The Owner of this
Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, agrees, however, that to the extent
the Certificate Insurer makes Insured Payments, either directly or indirectly
(as by paying through the Trustee or Paying Agent), to the Owners of such
Class A-5 Certificates, the Certificate Insurer will be subrogated to the
rights of such Owners of Class A-5 Certificates with respect to such Insured
Payment, shall be deemed to the extent of the payments so made to be a
registered Owner of such Class A-5 Certificates and

                                   A-5-4

<PAGE>

shall receive all future distributions of the Class A-5 Distribution Amount
until all such Insured Payments by the Certificate Insurer have been fully
reimbursed.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the obligations
created thereby will terminate upon the payment to the Owners of all
Certificates from amounts other than those available under the Certificate
Insurance Policies of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid
to such Owners pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and payment in
full of all amounts owed to the Certificate Insurer upon the latest to occur
of (a) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance made with
respect thereto) of the last Home Equity Loan in the Trust Estate, (b) the
disposition of all property acquired in respect of any Home Equity Loan
remaining in the Trust Estate or (c) at any time if a Qualified Liquidation
of the Trust Estate is effected as described below. To effect a termination
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement pursuant to clause (c) above, the
Owners of all Certificates then Outstanding shall provide the Trustee and the
Certificate Insurer, at such Owners' expense, an Opinion of Counsel
experienced in federal income tax matters acceptable to the Certificate
Insurer and the Trustee to the affect that each such liquidation constitutes
a Qualified Liquidation, and the Servicer shall either sell the Home Equity
Loans and the Trustee shall distribute the proceeds of the liquidation of the
Trust Estate, or the Servicer shall distribute equitably in kind all of the
assets of the Trust Estate to the remaining Owners of the Certificates to the
effect that each such liquidation constitutes a Qualified Liquidation, each
in accordance with such plan, so that the liquidation or distribution of the
Trust Estate, the distribution of any proceeds of the liquidation and the
termination of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement occur no later than the
close of the 90th day after the date of adoption of the plan of liquidation
and such liquidation qualifies as a Qualified Liquidation.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement additionally provides that the
Servicer may, at its option, purchase from the Trust all remaining Home
Equity Loans and other property then constituting the Trust Estate, and
thereby effect early retirement of the Certificates, on any Monthly
Remittance Date after the Clean-Up Call Date. In addition, under certain
circumstances relating to the qualification of REMIC I and REMIC II as REMICs
under the Code, the Home Equity Loans may be sold, thereby effecting the
early retirement of the Certificates.

         The Trustee shall give written notice of termination of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement to each Owner in the manner set forth therein.

         The Certificate Insurer or the Owners of the majority of the
Percentage Interests represented by the Class A Certificates with the prior
written consent of the Certificate Insurer have the right to exercise any
trust or power set forth in Section 6.11 of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.

         As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to
certain limitations therein set forth and referred to on the face hereof, the
transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Register upon surrender of
this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office designated as the
location of the Register duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed
by, the Owner hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and
thereupon one or more new Certificates of the like Class, tenor and a like
Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits, with certain exceptions
as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modifications of rights

Trustee, the Seller and the Servicer at any time and from time to time, with
the prior written approval of the Certificate Insurer and without the consent
of the Owners; provided that in certain other circumstances provided for in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement such consent of the Owners will be
required prior to amendments. Any such consent by the Owner at the time of
the giving thereof, of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding upon
such Owner and upon all future Owners of the Certificate and of any

hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is
made upon this Certificate.

         The Trustee is required to furnish certain information on each
Distribution Date to the Owner of this Certificate, as more fully described
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         The Class A-5 Certificates are issuable only as registered

subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Class A-5 Certificates are

sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in
connection therewith.

         The Trustee and any agent of the Trustee may treat the Person in
whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all
purposes, and neither the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary, except as may otherwise be specifically provided in

proceeds of all the foregoing (including, but not by way of limitation, all
proceeds of any mortgage insurance, flood insurance, hazard insurance and
title insurance policy relating to the Home Equity Loans, cash proceeds,

Certificates as specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement ((a) - (c)
above shall be collectively referred to herein as the "Trust Estate").

         The Owner hereof is entitled to principal payments on each
Distribution Date, as hereinafter described, which will fully amortize such
original Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-6 Certificates over the
period from the date of initial issuance of the Certificates to the final
Distribution Date for the Class A-6 Certificates. Therefore, the actual
Outstanding principal amount of this Certificate may, on any date subsequent
to January 25, 20__ (the first Distribution Date) be less than the original
Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-6 Certificates set forth above.

         Upon receiving the final distribution hereon, the Owner hereof is
required to send this Certificate to the Trustee. The Pooling and Servicing
Agreement (as defined below) provides that, in any event, upon the making of
the final distribution due on this Certificate, this Certificate shall be
deemed canceled for all purposes under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

THEREFORE, THE ACTUAL OUTSTANDING PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY ON
ANY DATE SUBSEQUENT TO JANUARY 25, 20__ (THE FIRST DISTRIBUTION DATE) BE LESS
THAN ITS ORIGINAL CERTIFICATE PRINCIPAL BALANCE.

Register.

         Each Owner of record of a Class A-6 Certificate will be entitled to
receive such Owner's Percentage Interest in the amounts due on such

Interest of each Class A-6 Certificate as of any date of determination will
be equal to the percentage obtained by dividing the original Certificate

         The Certificate Insurer is required, subject to the terms of the
related Certificate Insurance Policy to make Insured Payments available to
the Trustee on or prior to the related Distribution

<PAGE>

Date for distribution to the Owners provided that timely notice has been
given to the related Certificate Insurer by the Trustee. "Insured Payments"
shall have the meaning as provided therefor in the Certificate Insurance
Policy.

         Upon receipt of amounts under the related Certificate Insurance Policy
on behalf of the Owners of the Class A Certificates, the Trustee shall
distribute in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement such amounts
(directly or through a Paying Agent) to the Owners of the appropriate Class of
the Class A Certificates.

         The Trustee or any duly-appointed Paying Agent will duly and punctually
pay distributions with respect to this Certificate in accordance with the terms
hereof and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Amounts properly withheld under
the Code by any Person from a distribution to any Owner shall be considered as
having been paid by the Trustee to such Owner for all purposes of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.

         The Home Equity Loans will be serviced by the Servicer pursuant to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits the
Servicer to enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements with certain institutions
eligible for appointment as Sub-Servicers for the servicing and administration
of certain Home Equity Loans. No appointment of any Sub-Servicer shall release
the Servicer from any of its obligations under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.

         This Certificate does not represent a deposit or other obligation of,
or an interest in, nor are the underlying Home Equity Loans insured or
guaranteed by CHEC Funding, LLC or Centex Credit Corporation d/b/a Centex Home
Equity Corporation or any of their affiliates. This Certificate is limited in
right of payment to certain collections and recoveries relating to the Home
Equity Loans and amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account and the Principal
and Interest Account (except as otherwise provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement) and payments received by the Trustee pursuant to the related
Certificate Insurance Policy, all as more specifically set forth hereinabove and
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         No Owner shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, with respect to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement except in compliance with the terms thereof.

         Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Owner of any Certificate shall have the right which is absolute
and unconditional to receive distributions to the extent provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Certificate or to institute suit
for the enforcement of any such distribution, and such right shall not be
impaired without the consent of such Owner. The Owner of this Certificate, by
its acceptance hereof, agrees, however, that to the extent the Certificate
Insurer makes Insured Payments, either directly or indirectly (as by paying
through the Trustee or Paying Agent), to the Owners of such Class A-6
Certificates, the Certificate Insurer will be subrogated to the rights of such
Owners of Class A-6 Certificates with respect to such Insured Payment, shall be
deemed to the extent of the payments so made to be a registered Owner of such
Class A-6 Certificates and

                                       A-6-4
<PAGE>

shall receive all future distributions of the Class A-6 Distribution Amount
until all such Insured Payments by the Certificate Insurer have been fully
reimbursed.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the obligations
created thereby will terminate upon the payment to the Owners of all
Certificates from amounts other than those available under the Certificate
Insurance Policies of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to
such Owners pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and payment in full
of all amounts owed to the Certificate Insurer upon the latest to occur of (a)
the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance made with respect
thereto) of the last Home Equity Loan in the Trust Estate, (b) the disposition
of all property acquired in respect of any Home Equity Loan remaining in the
Trust Estate or (c) at any time if a Qualified Liquidation of the Trust Estate
is effected as described below. To effect a termination of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement pursuant to clause (c) above, the Owners of all Certificates
then Outstanding shall provide the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer, at such
Owners' expense, an Opinion of Counsel experienced in federal income tax matters
acceptable to the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee to the affect that each
such liquidation constitutes a Qualified Liquidation, and the Servicer shall
either sell the Home Equity Loans and the Trustee shall distribute the proceeds
of the liquidation of the Trust Estate, or the Servicer shall distribute
equitably in kind all of the assets of the Trust Estate to the remaining Owners
of the Certificates to the effect that each such liquidation constitutes a
Qualified Liquidation, each in accordance with such plan, so that the
liquidation or distribution of the Trust Estate, the distribution of any
proceeds of the liquidation and the termination of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement occur no later than the close of the 90th day after the date of
adoption of the plan of liquidation and such liquidation qualifies as a
Qualified Liquidation.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement additionally provides that the
Servicer may, at its option, purchase from the Trust all remaining Home Equity
Loans and other property then constituting the Trust Estate, and thereby effect
early retirement of the Certificates, on any Monthly Remittance Date after the
Clean-Up Call Date. In addition, under certain circumstances relating to the
qualification of REMIC I and REMIC II as REMICs under the Code, the Home Equity
Loans may be sold, thereby effecting the early retirement of the Certificates.

         The Trustee shall give written notice of termination of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement to each Owner in the manner set forth therein.

         The Certificate Insurer or the Owners of the majority of the Percentage
Interests represented by the Class A Certificates with the prior written consent
of the Certificate Insurer have the right to exercise any trust or power set
forth in Section 6.11 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to
certain limitations therein set forth and referred to on the face hereof, the
transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Register upon surrender of
this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office designated as the
location of the Register duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by,
the Owner hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one
or more new Certificates of the like Class, tenor and a like Percentage Interest
will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits, with certain exceptions as
therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modifications of rights and
obligations of the parties provided therein by the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Seller and the Servicer at any time and from time to time, with the prior
written approval of the Certificate Insurer and without the consent of the
Owners; provided that in certain other circumstances provided for in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement such consent of the Owners will be required prior to
amendments. Any such consent by the Owner at the time of the giving thereof, of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding upon such Owner and upon all
future Owners of the Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Certificate.

         The Trustee is required to furnish certain information on each
Distribution Date to the Owner of this Certificate, as more fully described in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         The Class A-6 Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates
in minimum denominations of [$1,000] original Certificate Principal Balance. As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, Class A-6 Certificates are exchangeable for new
Class A-6 Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate
principal amount.

         No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Registrar or Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

         The Trustee and any agent of the Trustee may treat the Person in whose
name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and
neither the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary, except as may otherwise be specifically provided in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement with respect to the Certificate Insurer.

eligible for appointment as Sub-Servicers for the servicing and administration

shall be deemed to the extent of the payments so made to be a registered
Owner of such Class A-7 Certificates and shall receive all future

acceptable to the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee to the affect that each
such liquidation constitutes a Qualified Liquidation, and the Servicer shall
either sell the Home Equity Loans and the Trustee shall distribute the proceeds
of the liquidation of the Trust Estate, or the Servicer shall distribute
equitably in kind all of the assets of the Trust Estate to the remaining Owners
of the Certificates to the effect that each such liquidation constitutes a
Qualified Liquidation, each in accordance with such plan, so that the
liquidation or distribution of the Trust Estate, the distribution of any
proceeds of the liquidation and the termination of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement occur no later than the close of the 90th day after the date of
adoption of the plan of liquidation and such liquidation qualifies as a
Qualified Liquidation.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement additionally provides that the
Servicer may, at its option, purchase from the Trust all remaining Home Equity
Loans and other property then constituting the Trust Estate, and thereby effect
early retirement of the Certificates, on any Monthly Remittance Date after the
Clean-Up Call Date. In addition, under certain circumstances relating to the
qualification of REMIC I and REMIC II as REMICs under the Code, the Home Equity
Loans may be sold, thereby effecting the early retirement of the Certificates.

         The Trustee shall give written notice of termination of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement to each Owner in the manner set forth therein.

         The Certificate Insurer or the Owners of the majority of the Percentage
Interests represented by the Class A Certificates with the prior written consent
of the Certificate Insurer have the right to exercise any trust or power set
forth in Section 6.11 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

certain limitations therein set forth and referred to on the face hereof, the

like Class, tenor and a like Percentage Interest will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits, with certain exceptions as
therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modifications of rights and
obligations of the parties provided therein by the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Seller and the Servicer at any time and from time to time, with the prior
written approval of the Certificate Insurer and without the consent of the
Owners; provided that in certain other circumstances provided for in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement such consent of the Owners will be required prior to
amendments. Any such consent by the Owner at the time of the giving thereof, of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding upon such Owner and upon all
future Owners of the Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Certificate.

         The Trustee is required to furnish certain information on each
Distribution Date to the Owner of this Certificate, as more fully described in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         The Class A-7 Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates

provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, Class A-7 Certificates are exchangeable for new

principal amount.

         No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Registrar or Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

         The Trustee and any agent of the Trustee may treat the Person in whose
name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and
neither the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary, except as may otherwise be specifically provided in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement with respect to the Certificate Insurer.

appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement except in compliance with the terms thereof.

         Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Owner of any Certificate shall have the right which is absolute
and unconditional to receive distributions to the extent provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Certificate or to institute suit
for the enforcement of any such distribution, and such right shall not be

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the obligations
created thereby will terminate upon the payment to the Owners of all
Certificates from amounts other than those available under the Certificate
Insurance Policies of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to
such Owners pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and payment in full

the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance made with respect
thereto) of the last Home Equity Loan in the Trust Estate, (b) the disposition
of all property acquired in respect of any Home Equity Loan remaining in the
Trust Estate or (c) at any time when a Qualified Liquidation of the Trust Estate
is effected as described below. To effect a termination of the Pooling and

then Outstanding shall provide the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer, at such
Owners' expense, an Opinion of Counsel experienced in federal income tax matters
acceptable to the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee to the effect that each
such liquidation constitutes a Qualified Liquidation, and the Servicer shall
either sell the Home Equity Loans and the Trustee shall distribute the proceeds
of the liquidation of the Trust Estate, or the Servicer shall distribute
equitably in kind all of the assets of the Trust Estate to the remaining Owners
of the Certificates to the effect that each such liquidation constitutes a
Qualified Liquidation, each in accordance with such plan, so that the
liquidation or distribution of the Trust Estate, the distribution of any
proceeds of the liquidation and the termination of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement occur no later than the close of the 90th day after the date of
adoption of the plan of liquidation and such liquidation qualifies as a
Qualified Liquidation.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement additionally provides that the
Servicer may, at its option, purchase from the Trust all remaining Home Equity
Loans and other property then constituting the Trust Estate, and thereby effect
early retirement of the Certificates, on any Monthly Remittance Date after the
Clean-Up Call Date. In addition, under certain circumstances relating to the
qualification of REMIC I and REMIC II as REMICs under the Code, the Home Equity
Loans may be sold, thereby effecting the early retirement of the Certificates.

Servicing Agreement to each Owner in the manner set forth therein.

neither the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary, except as may otherwise be specifically provided in the Pooling and

         On the 25th day of each month, or, if such day is not a Business Day,
then the next succeeding Business Day (each such day being a "Distribution
Date") commencing January 25, 20__, each owner of a Class R Certificate as of
the close of business on the last day of the calendar month immediately
preceding the calendar month in which a Distribution Date occurs (the "Record
Date") will be entitled to receive the Residual Net Monthly Excess Cashflow
relating to such Certificate on such Distribution Date. Distributions will be
made in immediately available funds to Owners of Class R Certificates having an
aggregate Percentage Interest of at least ___% (by wire transfer or otherwise)
to the account of an Owner at a domestic bank or other entity having appropriate
facilities therefor, if such Owner has so notified the Trustee, or by check
mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as it appears on the
Register.

         The Trustee or any duly-appointed Paying Agent will duly and punctually
pay distributions with respect to this Certificate in accordance with the terms
hereof and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Amounts properly withheld under
the Code by any Person from a distribution to any Owner shall be considered as
having been paid by the Trustee to such Owner for all purposes of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.

         The Home Equity Loans will be serviced by the Servicer pursuant to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits the
Servicer to enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements with certain institutions
eligible for appointment as Sub-Servicers for the servicing and administration
of certain Home Equity Loans. No appointment of any Sub-Servicer shall release
the Servicer from any of its obligations under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.

         This Certificate does not represent a deposit or other obligation of,
or an interest in, nor are the underlying Home Equity Loans insured or
guaranteed by CHEC Funding, LLC or Centex Credit Corporation d/b/a Centex Home
Equity Corporation or any of their affiliates. This Certificate is limited in
right of payment to certain collections and recoveries relating to the Home
Equity Loans, all as more specifically set forth hereinabove and in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.

         No Owner shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, with respect to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement except in compliance with the terms thereof.

         Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Owner of any Certificate shall have the right which is absolute
and unconditional to receive distributions to the extent provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Certificate or to institute suit
for the enforcement of any such distribution, and such right shall not be
impaired without the consent of such Owner.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the obligations
created thereby will terminate upon the payment to the Owners of all
Certificates from amounts other than those available under the Certificate
Insurance Policies of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to
such Owners pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and payment in full
of all amounts owed to the Certificate Insurer upon the latest to occur of (a)
the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance made with respect
thereto) of the last Home Equity Loan in the Trust Estate, (b) the disposition
of all property acquired in respect of any Home Equity Loan remaining in the
Trust Estate or (c) at any time when a Qualified Liquidation of the Trust Estate
is effected as described below. To effect a termination of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement pursuant to clause (c) above, the Owners of all Certificates
then Outstanding shall provide the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer, at such
Owners' expense, an Opinion of Counsel experienced in federal income tax matters
acceptable to the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee to the effect that each
such liquidation constitutes a Qualified Liquidation, and the Servicer shall
either sell the Home Equity Loans and the Trustee shall distribute the proceeds
of the liquidation of the Trust Estate, or the Servicer shall distribute
equitably in kind all of the assets of the Trust Estate to the remaining Owners
of the Certificates to the effect that each such liquidation constitutes a
Qualified Liquidation, each in accordance with such plan, so that the
liquidation or distribution of the Trust Estate, the distribution of any
proceeds of the liquidation and the termination of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement occur no later than the close of the 90th day after the date of
adoption of the plan of liquidation and such liquidation qualifies as a
Qualified Liquidation.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement additionally provides that the
Servicer may, at its option, purchase from the Trust all remaining Home Equity
Loans and other property then constituting the Trust Estate, and thereby effect
early retirement of the Certificates, on any Monthly Remittance Date after the
Clean-Up Call Date. In addition, under certain circumstances relating to the
qualification of REMIC I and REMIC II as REMICs under the Code, the Home Equity
Loans may be sold, thereby effecting the early retirement of the Certificates.

         The Class R Certificates evidence ownership in the "residual interest"
in REMIC I and the "residual interest" in REMIC II. The registered Owner of a
Class R Certificate will be entitled to separate such Certificate into such
component parts. The Trustee shall, upon delivery to it of this Class R
Certificate and a written request of the registered Owner thereof to separate
such Certificate into its component parts, issued to such registered Owner in
exchange for such Class R Certificate (i) a separately transferable, certified
and fully registered security (a "Class R-1 Certificate) that will, from the
date of its issuance, represent the Owner's Percentage Interest in the residual
interest in REMIC I and (ii) a separately transferable, certified and fully
registered security (a "Class R-2 Certificate") that will, from the date of its
issuance, represent the Owner's Percentage Interest in the residual interest in
REMIC II. The Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax
or other governmental charge payable in connection with such exchange of this
Class R Certificate.

         The Trustee shall give written notice of termination of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement to each Owner in the manner set forth therein.

         The Certificate Insurer or the Owners of the majority of the Percentage
Interests represented by the Class A Certificates with the prior written consent
of the Certificate Insurer have the right to exercise any trust or power set
forth in Section 6.11 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to
certain limitations therein set forth and referred to on the face hereof, the
transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Register upon surrender of
this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office designated as the
location of the Register duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by,
the Owner hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one
or more new Certificates of the like Class, tenor and a like aggregate
fractional undivided interest in the Trust Estate will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.

         The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits, with certain exceptions as
therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modifications of rights and
obligations of the parties provided therein by the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Seller and the Servicer at any time and from time to time, with the prior
written approval of the Certificate Insurer and without the consent of the
Owners; provided, that in certain other circumstances provided for in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement such consent of the Owners will be required
prior to amendment. Any such consent by the Owner at the time of the giving
thereof, of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding upon such Owner and
upon all future Owners of the Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Certificate.

         The Trustee is required to furnish certain information on each
Distribution Date to the Owner of this Certificate, as more fully described in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

         The Class R Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates.
As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, Class R

                                       C-6
<PAGE>

Certificates are exchangeable for new Class R Certificates evidencing the
same Percentage Interest as the Class R Certificates exchanged.

         No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Registrar or Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

         The Trustee and any agent of the Trustee may treat the Person in whose
name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and
neither the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary, except as may otherwise be specifically provided in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement with respect to the Certificate Insurer.
