 (b)  Lease
Prepayment.    Lessee will pay Lessor a Lease Prepayment [RFM 014—Material has been omitted pursuant to a Request for Confidential Treatment made by RFM. Material has been filed separately with the Commission.] to cover
the partial monthly lease payment RFM015- Material has been omitted pursuant to a Request for Confidential Treatment made by RFM. Material has been filed separately with the Commission.] of the lease period including any periods of renewal. The
parties agree and acknowledge that the Lease Prepayment has been paid in full pursuant to the Original Agreement. 
  
 (c)  Fair Market Purchase Option.    Lessee will have the option at the end of this lease agreement to purchase the Assets under Lease Agreement as described in subsequent paragraphs, at the then
fair market value (the “Fair Market value Purchase Option”). 
  
 (d)  Lease
Payments.    Monthly payments of [RFM 016- Material has been omitted pursuant to a Request for Confidential Treatment made by RFM. Material has been filed separately with the Commission.] are due under this Agreement
(“Lease payments”) during the Lease Term. The timing of the first monthly lease payment will be based on the date of notification of successful Product qualification testing from Lessor to Lessee. Notification can be by e-mail or other
electronic transfer means. The first monthly lease payment will be due on the fifth (5th) day of the
month following notification of successful Product qualification testing unless the Lease Payments are suspended under the Guaranteed Minimum Order Quantity provisions listed below in this paragraph. Lessee shall wire transfer to Lessor a payment in
immediately available funds of U.S. Dollars per Lessor’s instructions. The parties acknowledge that no Lease Payments have been made to date. Such payments shall continue to be paid in each succeeding month, due on the fifth day of each month,
but with one-week grace period, thereafter until the end of the lease period described below, at which time, Lessee will have the option to purchase the Assets at the then fair market value per paragraph 1.1(c) above. Lease payments may be suspended
without penalty, if the total quantity of Product Ordered by Lessor in a given month is not equal to or greater than the “Guaranteed Minimum Order Quantity” as defined in Schedule A1, paragraph 3.2 of the “Manufacturing Assembly
Agreement” into which Lessor and Lessee have entered. Such suspension will continue until such time as the total quantity of Product Ordered by Lessor in a month is equal to or greater than, or returns to being equal to or greater than, the
“Guaranteed Minimum Order Quantity.” If the sum of the quantities of Product Ordered by the last week of a month is equal to or greater than the “Guaranteed Minimum Order Quantity,” then the “Guaranteed Minimum Order
Quantity” shall be deemed to be in effect for that month, and the lease payment for that month will be due on the fifth (5th) day of the following month as indicated above in this paragraph. 

 
 Page 2 of 14 

 (e)  Term of the Lease.    The term of the lease period for the Assets is 36 months
beginning from the date of the first monthly lease payment. Until and after the first monthly lease payment is made, paragraphs 1.1(i) and 3.1 apply. Lease is renewable annually in twelve (12) month increments (such term, including its extensions,
if any, is referred to as the “Lease Term”). 
  
 (f)  Early Termination of the
Lease.    The Lease Agreement may be terminated sooner than 36 months as follows: 
  
 (1)  If Lessee for any reason initiates early termination of the Lease Agreement, Lessee must inform Lessor at least 180 days prior to anticipated termination. Lessee and Lessor must enter into negotiation regarding the
early termination of the Lease Agreement. Lessee agrees to pay any early termination fees or other special charges as negotiated between Lessee and Lessor, and will arrange for and pay for all de-installation, crating and other preparation for
shipment, shipment, customs, and delivery of Assets back to Lessor, to include installation and repair of Assets at Lessor’s facility, if Lessor deems appropriate and necessary. 
  
 (2)  If (i) Lessee fails to regularly pay lease payments, (ii) Lessor is not in default under this Agreement, and (iii) Lessor is in compliance with its volume
obligations set forth in paragraph 1.1(f)4 below and Lessee does not make arrangements for satisfaction of lease payments that Lessor deems appropriate and acceptable, then the Lessee will be in breach of Agreement and must return assets to Lessor
at Lessee’s expense, to include de-installation at Lessee’s facility, crating and other preparation for shipment, shipment, customs charges, delivery to Lessor’s facility and installation and repair at Lessor’s facility necessary
to make the Assets functional if necessary. Termination of this Agreement under this case shall in no way relieve Lessee from the obligation to make payment of all amounts then due and payable. Further, Lessor shall be entitled to recover any and
all actual costs, expenses and damages, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and/or offset any amounts due to Lessor by any and actual costs and expenses incurred by Lessor as a result of the breach of this Agreement. Any remedies of this
nature shall not be exclusive, but shall be cumulative of any other remedy herein or any other statute or law. 
  
 (3)  If Lessor for any reason except for a breach of this Agreement as indicated in paragraph 1.1(f)2 above, initiates early termination of the Lease Agreement, Lessor must inform Lessee at least 180 days prior to
anticipated termination. Lessor and Lessee must enter into negotiation regarding the early termination of the Lease Agreement. Lessor agrees to pay any early termination fees or other special charges as negotiated between Lessor and Lessee, and will
arrange for and pay for shipment and transfer of Assets back 

 
 Page 3 of 14 

  
 to Lessor, to include any installation and repair of Assets at Lessor’s
facility. Early termination fees may include a prorated repayment by the Lessor to the Lessee of the Lease Prepayment amount based on the remaining months of the Lease Period divided by the Lease Period to include any renewals. 

 
 [RFM 017- Material has been omitted pursuant to a Request for Confidential Treatment made by RFM. Material has been filed
separately with the Commission.] 
  
 (4)  As noted in the Recitals of this Agreement, Lessor and Lessee
have entered into a separate agreement (the “Manufacturing Assembly Agreement”) under which Lessee will Manufacture Product (as defined in that agreement) for Lessor using Assets. A material breach of this referenced agreement (the
“Manufacturing Assembly Agreement”) regarding and involving the Product listed in Schedule A1 of that agreement shall also constitute a breach of this Agreement. Under this condition, Lessoragrees to not remove Assets from Lessee’s
factory and to allow Lessee to use Assets to manufacture products for other customers until breach is corrected, or until the Lease is terminated. Lessee agrees to continue monthly lease payments for each month from the time of the breach until the
breach is corrected, or until the Lease is terminated. 
  
 If the breach of the Manufacturing
Assembly Agreement cannot be corrected to the satisfaction of Lessor, Lessee shall have the option of keeping the Assets and paying Lessor a negotiated Fair Market Value Purchase Price, or returning Assets to Lessor at Lessee’s expense. In
either case, Lease shall be considered to be terminated at that time. If Assets are returned to Lessor, Lessee will be liable for expenses to include de-installation at Lessee’s facility, crating and other preparation for shipment, shipment,
customs charges, delivery to Lessor’s facility and installation and any repairs at Lessor’s facility necessary to make the Assets functional. Further, Lessor shall be entitled to recover any and all actual costs, expenses and damages,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees and/or offset any amounts due to Lessee by any and actual costs and expenses incurred by Lessor as a result of the breach of this Agreement. Any remedies of this nature shall not be exclusive, but shall be
cumulative of any other remedy herein or any other statute or law. 
  
 (5)  If both parties deem that it is
in their mutual best interest to terminate the Lease Agreement prior to the defined term of the program, then Assets may be purchased by Lessee or may be returned to Lessor. If Assets are to be purchased by Lessee, both parties will establish and
agree on a Fair Market Value Purchase Price. However, nothing in the preceding sentence shall obligate Lessor to reduce the total of the unpaid balance of the 

 
 Page 4 of 14 

  
 remaining lease payments. Lessor will deliver to Lessee a bill of sale for the
Assets after receipt of either payment of the all remaining lease payments and the Fair Market Value Purchase Price, or a Fair Market Value Purchase Price as negotiated by both parties, and this Agreement will then be considered to be terminated. If
Assets are to be returned to Lessor, Lessor will be liable for expenses to include de-installation at Lessee’s facility, crating and other preparation for shipment, shipment, customs charges, delivery to Lessor’s facility and installation
and any repairs at Lessor’s facility necessary to make the Assets functional. 
  
 (6)  If during the
term of this Lease, a petition in bankruptcy is filed by or against Lessee, or if Lessee, as a debtor, seeks or takes the benefit of any insolvency or debtor’s relief proceedings, or if Lessee shall file or attempt to file an assignment for the
benefit of creditors, or if Lessee shall apply to its creditors to compound its debts, then in any such event, Lessor may without any prejudice to any other lawful remedy, terminate this Equipment Lease Agreement, and Lessee shall, upon demand, at
Lessee’s sole expense, de-install Assets from Lessee’s facility, crate and otherwise prepare the Assets for shipment, ship Assets to Lessor’s facility, pay any customs fees necessary, install Assets at Lessor’s facility and make
Assets operational at Lessor’s facility. 
  
 (7)  If during the term of this Lease, a petition in
bankruptcy is filed by or against Lessor, or if Lessor, as a debtor, seeks or takes the benefit of any insolvency or debtor’s relief proceedings, or if Lessor shall file or attempt to file an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if
Lessor shall apply to its creditors to compound its debts, then in any such event, Lessee may without any prejudice to any other lawful remedy, terminate this Equipment Lease Agreement. Lessee may petition the appropriate judicial body to acquire
Assets at a then established Fair Market Value Purchase Price. If Lessee chooses not to petition to acquire Assets, Assets shall, at Lessor’s sole expense, be de-installed from Lessee’s facility, crated or otherwise prepared for shipment,
and shipped to Lessor’s, or another otherwise designated facility. Lessor shall pay any customs fees necessary. 
  
 (g)  Deliveries of the Parties.    Upon closing of and exercise of the Fair Market Value Purchase Option, or other sale of Assets to Lessee, 
  

(1)  Lessor shall deliver to Lessee a bill of sale with respect to the Assets (the “Bill of Sale”), duly executed by Lessor, after Lessor’s
receipt of full payment of the lease payments and the Fair Market Value Purchase Price from Lessee, or the receipt of payment of the negotiated Fair Market Value Purchase Price as indicated in paragraph 1.1(f)4 or 1.1(f)5. 

 
 Page 5 of 14 

 (2)  Lessor will arrange for crating and/or shipment of the Assets to Lessee using Lessee’s instructions
for use of a freight forwarder per paragraphs 4.6 (a) and 4.6(b). 
  
 (3)  Each party shall deliver to the
other party such other documents and certificates as the other party may reasonably request. 
  
 (h)  Delivery of Assets; Title; Risk of Loss.    The parties acknowledge that the Assets leased hereunder were delivered to Lessee’s facility FOB, Dallas, Texas, U.S.A. (as defined in
IncoTerms (2000) published by the International Chamber of Commerce) pursuant to the Original Agreement. Title to the Assets shall pass to Lessee upon exercise of the Fair Market Purchase Option and Lessor’s receipt of full payment of the Fair
Market Value Purchase Price from Lessee. The parties acknowledge that Risk of Loss with respect to the Assets passed to Lessee upon delivery to freight forwarder at Dallas, Texas, U.S.A pursuant to the Original Agreement. Lessee agrees to procure
insurance against loss and damage for leased Assets equal to the value of the Assets as shown in Exhibit A of this Agreement to be in force at the time Assets are delivered to the freight forwarder, and agrees to continue insurance against loss and
damage equal to the depreciated value at any time during each subsequent 12-month period going forward until the end of the lease period, or until Lessee obtains title to the Assets. 
  
 (i)  Ownership.    Lessee understands and acknowledges that it shall under no circumstances be considered to have any ownership or
proprietary interest in the Assets during the time when the Assets are under Lessee’s control. This includes the time prior to the first monthly lease payment. Lessee agrees to segregate on its company books and conspicuously label leased
Assets on each piece of equipment to indicate RFM ownership until the lease is terminated. Lessee agrees that it will not mortgage, pledge, assign or borrow against the leased Assets during the time the lease is in force or that Assets are under
Lessee’s control. 
  
 (j)  Use of Assets.    Lessor agrees that Lessee may
use Assets to manufacture products for other customers with prior approval in writing from Lessor.

         THIS POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT, dated as of December 1, 2002,
among FIRST HORIZON ASSET SECURITIES INC., a Delaware corporation, as depositor
(the "Depositor"), FIRST HORIZON HOME LOAN CORPORATION, a Kansas corporation, as

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

                              PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

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

income tax purposes of all interests created hereby will be the Latest Possible
Maturity Date.

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

                          CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS;
                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

          SECTION 2.1 Conveyance of Mortgage Loans.

     (a)  The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof,
          hereby sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and otherwise conveys to
          the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, without
          recourse, all the right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to
          the Trust Fund together with the Depositor's right (i) to require the
          Seller to cure any breach of a representation or warranty made by the
          Seller pursuant to the MLPA, or (ii) to repurchase or substitute for
          any affected Mortgage Loan in accordance herewith.

     (b)  In connection with the transfer and assignment set forth in clause (a)
          above, the Depositor has delivered or caused to be delivered to the
          Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf (or, in the case of the Delay
          Delivery Mortgage Loans, will deliver or cause to be delivered to the
          Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf within thirty (30) days
          following the Closing Date) for the benefit of the Certificateholders
          the following documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage
          Loan so assigned:

          (i)    (A) the original Mortgage Note endorsed by manual or facsimile
                 signature in blank in the following form: "Pay to the order of
                 ________________, without recourse," with all intervening
                 endorsements showing a complete chain of endorsement from the
                 originator to the Person endorsing the Mortgage Note (each such
                 endorsement being sufficient to transfer all right, title and
                 interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee
                 thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note); or

                 (B) with respect to any Lost Mortgage Note, a lost note
                 affidavit from the Seller stating that the original Mortgage
                 Note was lost or destroyed, together with a copy of such
                 Mortgage Note;

          (ii)   except as provided below, the original recorded Mortgage or a
                 copy of such Mortgage certified by the Seller as being a true
                 and complete copy of the Mortgage;

          (iii)  a duly executed assignment of the Mortgage in blank (which may
                 be included in a blanket assignment or assignments), together
                 with, except as provided below, all interim recorded
                 assignments of such mortgage (each such assignment, when duly
                 and validly completed, to be in recordable form and sufficient
                 to effect the assignment of and transfer to the assignee
                 thereof, under the Mortgage to which the assignment relates);
                 provided that, if the related Mortgage has not been returned
                 from the applicable public recording office, such assignment of
                 the Mortgage may exclude the information to be provided by the
                 recording office;

                                       34

<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

                 (B)  The executed Security Agreement;

                 (C)  The executed Proprietary Lease;

                 (D)  The executed Recognition Agreement;

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

                 (F)  Executed UCC-3 financing statements or other appropriate
                      UCC financing statements required by state law, evidencing
                      a complete and unbroken line from the mortgagee to the
                      Trustee with evidence of recording thereon (or in a form
                      suitable for recordation).

     In the event that in connection with any Mortgage Loan the Depositor cannot
deliver (a) the original recorded Mortgage or (b) all interim recorded
assignments satisfying the requirements of clause (ii) or (iii) above,
respectively, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof because such
document or documents have not been returned from the applicable public
recording office, the Depositor shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered
to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf such original Mortgage or such
interim assignment, as the case may be, with evidence of recording indicated
thereon upon receipt thereof from the public recording office, or a copy
thereof, certified, if appropriate, by the relevant recording office, but in no
event shall any such delivery of the original Mortgage and each such interim
assignment or a copy thereof, certified, if appropriate, by the relevant
recording office, be made later than one year following the Closing Date;
provided, however, in the event the Depositor is unable to deliver or cause to
be delivered by such date each Mortgage and each such interim assignment by
reason of the fact that any such documents have not been returned by the
appropriate recording office, or, in the case of each such interim assignment,
because the related Mortgage has not been returned by the appropriate recording
office, the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be

                                       35

<PAGE>

delivered such documents to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf as
promptly as possible upon receipt thereof and, in any event, within 720 days
following the Closing Date. The Depositor shall forward or cause to be forwarded
to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf (a) from time to time additional
original documents evidencing an assumption or modification of a Mortgage Loan
and (b) any other documents required to be delivered by the Depositor or the
Master Servicer to the Trustee. In the event that the original Mortgage is not
delivered and in connection with the payment in full of the related Mortgage
Loan and the public recording office requires the presentation of a "lost
instruments affidavit and indemnity" or any equivalent document, because only a
copy of the Mortgage can be delivered with the instrument of satisfaction or
reconveyance, the Master Servicer shall execute and deliver or cause to be
executed and delivered such a document to the public recording office. In the
case where a public recording office retains the original recorded Mortgage or
in the case where a Mortgage is lost after recordation in a public recording
office, the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee or
the Custodian on its behalf a copy of such Mortgage certified by such public
recording office to be a true and complete copy of the original recorded
Mortgage.

     In addition, in the event that in connection with any Mortgage Loan the
Depositor cannot deliver or cause to be delivered the original or duplicate
original lender's title policy (together with all riders thereto), satisfying
the requirements of clause (v) above, concurrently with the execution and
delivery hereof because the related Mortgage has not been returned from the
applicable public recording office, the Depositor shall promptly deliver or
cause to be delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf such
original or duplicate original lender's title policy (together with all riders
thereto) upon receipt thereof from the applicable title insurer, but in no event
shall any such delivery of the original or duplicate original lender's title
policy be made later than one year following the Closing Date; provided,
however, in the event the Depositor is unable to deliver or cause to be
delivered by such date the original or duplicate original lender's title policy
(together with all riders thereto) because the related Mortgage has not been
returned by the appropriate recording office, the Depositor shall deliver or
cause to be delivered such documents to the Trustee or the Custodian on its
behalf as promptly as possible upon receipt thereof and, in any event, within
720 days following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the preceding, in
connection with any Mortgage Loan for which either the original or duplicate
original title policy has not been delivered to the Trust, if at any time during
the term of this Agreement the parent company of the Seller does not have a long
term senior debt rating of A- or higher from S&P and A- or higher from Fitch (if
rated by Fitch), then the Depositor shall within 30 days deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf (if it has not
previously done so) a written commitment or interim binder or preliminary report
of the title issued by the title insurance or escrow company with respect to the
mortgaged property.

     Subject to the immediately following sentence, as promptly as practicable
subsequent to such transfer and assignment, and in any event, within thirty (30)
days thereafter, the Master Servicer shall (i) complete each assignment of
Mortgage, as follows: "First Horizon Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series
2002-9, The Bank of New York, as trustee for the holders of the Certificates",
(ii) cause such assignment to be in proper form for recording in the appropriate
public office for real property records and (iii) cause to be delivered for
recording in the appropriate public office for real property records the
assignments of the Mortgages to the Trustee, except that, with respect to any
assignments of Mortgage as to which the Master

                                       36

<PAGE>

Servicer has not received the information required to prepare such assignment in
recordable form, the Master Servicer's obligation to do so and to deliver the
same for such recording shall be as soon as practicable after receipt of such
information and in any event within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer need not cause to be recorded
any assignment which relates to a Mortgage Loan in any state other than the
Required Recordation States.

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

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, within thirty
days after the Closing Date, the Depositor shall either (i) deliver or cause to
be delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf the Mortgage File as
required pursuant to this Section 2.1 for each Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan or
(ii) (A) substitute or cause to be substituted a Substitute Mortgage Loan for
the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan or (B) repurchase or cause to be repurchased
the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan, which substitution or repurchase shall be
accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section
2.3 (treating each Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan as a Deleted Mortgage Loan for
purposes of such Section 2.3), provided, however, that if the Depositor fails to
deliver a Mortgage File for any Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan within the
thirty-day period provided in the prior sentence, the Depositor shall use its
best reasonable efforts to effect or cause to be effected a substitution, rather
than a repurchase of, such Deleted Mortgage Loan and provided further that the
cure period provided for in Section 2.2 or in Section 2.3 shall not apply to the
initial delivery of the Mortgage File for such Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan, but
rather the Depositor shall have five (5) Business Days to cure or cause to be
cured such failure to deliver. At the end of such thirty-day period, the Trustee
or the Custodian, on its behalf shall send a Delay Delivery Certification for
the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans delivered during such thirty-day period in
accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, none of the Mortgage Loans in the Trust
Fund is or will be Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans.

          SECTION 2.2 Acceptance by Trustee of the Mortgage Loans.

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

     The Trustee agrees to execute and deliver or to cause the Custodian to
execute and deliver on the Closing Date to the Depositor and the Master Servicer
an Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit E. Based on its
or the Custodian's review and examination, and only as to the documents
identified in such Initial Certification, the Custodian, on behalf of

                                       37

<PAGE>

the Trustee, acknowledges that such documents appear regular on their face and
relate to such Mortgage Loan. Neither the Trustee nor the Custodian shall be
under any duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine said documents,
instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that the same are
genuine, enforceable or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they
have actually been recorded in the real estate records or that they are other
than what they purport to be on their face.

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

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

     If, in the course of such review, the Trustee or the Custodian, on behalf
of the Trustee finds any document constituting a part of a Mortgage File which
does not meet the requirements of Section 2.1, the Trustee shall list or shall
cause the Custodian to list such as an exception in the Final Certification;
provided, however that neither the Trustee nor the Custodian shall make any
determination as to whether (i) any endorsement is sufficient to transfer all
right, title and interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee
thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note or (ii) any assignment is in recordable
form or is sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer to the assignee
thereof under the mortgage to which the assignment relates. The Seller shall
promptly correct or cure such defect within 90 days from the date it was so
notified of such defect and, if the Seller does not correct or cure such defect
within such period, the Seller shall either (a) substitute for the related
Mortgage Loan a Substitute Mortgage Loan, which substitution shall be
accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section
2.3, or (b) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee within 90 days from the
date the Seller was notified of such defect in writing at the Purchase Price of
such Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall such substitution
or purchase occur more than 540 days from the Closing Date, except that if the
substitution or purchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this provision is
required by reason of a delay in delivery of any documents by the appropriate
recording office, and there is a dispute between either the Master Servicer or
the Seller and the Trustee over the location or status of the recorded document,
then such substitution or purchase shall occur within 720 days from the Closing
Date. The Trustee shall deliver written notice to each Rating Agency within 270
days from the Closing Date indicating each Mortgage Loan (a) which has not been
returned by the appropriate recording office or (b) as to which there is a
dispute as to location or status of such Mortgage Loan. Such notice shall be
delivered every 90 days thereafter until the related Mortgage Loan is returned
to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf. Any such substitution pursuant to
(a) above or purchase pursuant to (b) above shall not be effected prior to the
delivery to the Trustee of the Opinion of Counsel required by Section 2.5
hereof, if any, and any substitution pursuant to (a) above shall not be effected
prior to the additional delivery to the Trustee of a Request for Release
substantially in the form of Exhibit L. No substitution is permitted to be made
in any calendar month after the Determination Date for such month. The Purchase
Price for any such Mortgage Loan shall be deposited by the Seller in

                                       38

<PAGE>

the Certificate Account on or prior to the Distribution Account Deposit Date for
the Distribution Date in the month following the month of repurchase and, upon
receipt of such deposit and certification with respect thereto in the form of
Exhibit M hereto, the Trustee shall cause the Custodian to release the related
Mortgage File to the Seller and shall execute and deliver at the Seller's
request such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the Seller, in
each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller, or a
designee, the Trustee's interest in any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.

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

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

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

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

     (b)  Upon discovery by any of the parties hereto of a breach of a
          representation or warranty made pursuant to Schedule B to the MLPA
          that materially and adversely affects the interests of the
          Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such
          breach shall give prompt notice thereof to the other parties. The
          Seller hereby covenants that within 90 days of the earlier of its
          discovery or its receipt of written notice from any party of a breach
          of any representation or warranty made pursuant to Schedule B to the
          MLPA which materially and adversely affects the interests of the
          Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, it shall cure such breach in
          all material respects, and if such breach is not so cured, shall, (i)
          if such 90-day period expires prior to the second anniversary of the
          Closing Date, remove such Mortgage Loan (a "Deleted Mortgage Loan")
          from the Trust Fund and substitute in its place a Substitute Mortgage
          Loan, in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in this
          Section; or (ii) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or Mortgage
          Loans from the Trustee at the Purchase Price in the manner set forth
          below; provided, however, that any such substitution pursuant to (i)
          above shall not be effected prior to the delivery to the Trustee of
          the Opinion of Counsel required by Section 2.5 hereof, if any, and any
          such substitution pursuant to (i) above shall not be effected prior to
          the additional delivery to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf
          of a Request for Release substantially in the form of Exhibit M and
          the Mortgage File for any such

                                       39

<PAGE>

          Substitute Mortgage Loan. The Seller shall promptly reimburse the
          Master Servicer and the Trustee for any expenses reasonably incurred
          by the Master Servicer or the Trustee in respect of enforcing the
          remedies for such breach. With respect to the representations and
          warranties described in this Section which are made to the best of the
          Seller's knowledge, if it is discovered by either the Depositor, the
          Seller or the Trustee that the substance of such representation and
          warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy materially and adversely
          affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan or the interests of the
          Certificateholders therein, notwithstanding the Seller's lack of
          knowledge with respect to the substance of such representation or
          warranty, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the applicable
          representation or warranty.

     With respect to any Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Seller shall
deliver to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf for the benefit of the
Certificateholders the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the related assignment of
the Mortgage, and such other documents and agreements as are required by Section
2.1, with the Mortgage Note endorsed and the Mortgage assigned as required by
Section 2.1. No substitution is permitted to be made in any calendar month after
the Determination Date for such month. Scheduled Payments due with respect to
Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution shall not be part of the
Trust Fund and will be retained by the Seller on the next succeeding
Distribution Date. For the month of substitution, distributions to
Certificateholders will include the monthly payment due on any Deleted Mortgage
Loan for such month and thereafter the Seller shall be entitled to retain all
amounts received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer
shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule for the benefit of the Certificateholders
to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and the Master Servicer shall deliver the
amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee. Upon such substitution, the
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall be subject to the terms of this
Agreement in all respects, and the Seller shall be deemed to have made with
respect to such Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the date of
substitution, the representations and warranties made pursuant to Schedule B to
the MLPA with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Upon any such substitution and the
deposit to the Certificate Account of the amount required to be deposited
therein in connection with such substitution as described in the following
paragraph, the Trustee shall release or shall cause the Custodian to release the
Mortgage File held for the benefit of the Certificateholders relating to such
Deleted Mortgage Loan to the Seller and shall execute and deliver at the
Seller's direction such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the
Seller, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest title in
the Seller, or its designee, the Trustee's interest in any Deleted Mortgage Loan
substituted for pursuant to this Section 2.3.

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

                                       40

<PAGE>

the Distribution Account Deposit Date for the Distribution Date in the month
succeeding the calendar month during which the related Mortgage Loan became
required to be purchased or replaced hereunder.

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

     After giving effect to the sale of the Certificates by the Depositor to the
Underwriters, and thereafter, so long as any Certificates remain outstanding,
the Seller, its affiliates and agents, collectively, shall not beneficially own
Certificates the aggregate fair value of which would represent 90% or more of
the beneficial interests in the Trust Fund.

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

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

     The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee with respect to
each Mortgage Loan as of the date hereof or such other date set forth herein
that as of the Closing Date, and following the transfer of the Mortgage Loans to
it pursuant to the MLPA and immediately prior to the conveyance of the Mortgage
Loans by it to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.1(a) hereof, the Depositor had
good title to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgage Notes were subject to no
offsets, defenses or counterclaims.

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

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

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

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

          SECTION 2.6 Execution and Delivery of Certificates.

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

          SECTION 2.7 REMIC Matters.

     The Preliminary Statement sets forth the designations and "latest possible
maturity date" for federal income tax purposes of all REMIC regular interests
created hereby. The Class I-A-R Certificates shall be the sole class of residual
interest in the REMIC created hereunder. The "Startup Day" for purposes of the
REMIC Provisions shall be the Closing Date. The Tax Matters Person with respect
to the REMIC hereunder shall be the Trustee and the Trustee shall hold the Tax
Matters Person Certificate. The REMIC's taxable year shall be the calendar year
and its accounts shall be maintained using the accrual method.

          SECTION 2.8 Covenants of the Master Servicer.

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

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

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

                                   ARTICLE III
                 ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS

          SECTION 3.1 Master Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans.

     For and on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall
service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, the Servicing Rights Transfer and Subservicing Agreement and
customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage loan servicers. In
connection with such servicing and administration, the Master Servicer shall
have full power and authority, acting alone and/or through Subservicers as
provided in Section 3.2 hereof, to do or cause to be done any and all things
that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such servicing and
administration, including but not limited to, the power and authority, subject
to the terms hereof (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the
Certificateholders and the Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other
instruments and documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged
Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages (but only
in the manner provided in this Agreement), (iii) to collect any Insurance
Proceeds and other Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or
other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any
Mortgage Loan; provided that the Master Servicer shall not take any action that
is inconsistent with or prejudices the interests of the Trust Fund or the
Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan or the rights and interests of the
Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificateholders under this Agreement. The
Master Servicer shall represent and protect the interests of the Trust Fund in
the same manner as it protects its own interests in mortgage loans in its own
portfolio in any claim, proceeding or litigation regarding a Mortgage Loan, and
shall not make or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any Mortgage
Loan which would cause the REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC
or result in the imposition of any tax under Section 860F(a) or Section 860G(d)
of the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master
Servicer, in its own name or in the name of the Depositor and the Trustee, is
hereby authorized and empowered by the Depositor and the Trustee, when the
Master Servicer believes it appropriate in its reasonable judgment, to execute
and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificateholders or
any of them, any and all instruments of

                                       43

<PAGE>

satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge and all
other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, and with
respect to the Mortgaged Properties held for the benefit of the
Certificateholders. The Master Servicer shall prepare and deliver to the
Depositor and/or the Trustee such documents requiring execution and delivery by
either or both of them as are necessary or appropriate to enable the Master
Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans to the extent that the
Master Servicer is not permitted to execute and deliver such documents pursuant
to the preceding sentence. Upon receipt of such documents, the Depositor and/or
the Trustee shall execute such documents and deliver them to the Master
Servicer.

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

          SECTION 3.2 Subservicing; Enforcement of the Obligations of Servicers.

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

     (b)  For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to
          have received any collections, recoveries or payments with respect to
          the Mortgage

                                       44

<PAGE>

          Loans that are received by a Subservicer regardless of whether such
          payments are remitted by the Subservicer to the Master Servicer.

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

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

          SECTION 3.4 Trustee to Act as Master Servicer.

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

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

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

     (a)  The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts in accordance with
          the customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage
          servicers to collect all payments called for under the terms and
          provisions of the Mortgage Loans to the extent such procedures shall
          be consistent with this Agreement and the terms

                                       45

<PAGE>

          and provisions of any related Required Insurance Policy. Consistent
          with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i)
          waive any late payment charge or any prepayment charge or penalty
          interest in connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan and (ii)
          extend the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period
          not greater than 180 days; provided, however, that the Master Servicer
          cannot extend the maturity of any such Mortgage Loan past the date on
          which the final payment is due on the latest maturing Mortgage Loan as
          of the Cut-off Date. In the event of any such arrangement, the Master
          Servicer shall make Advances on the related Mortgage Loan in
          accordance with the provisions of Section 4.1 during the scheduled
          period in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage
          Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements. The
          Master Servicer shall not be required to institute or join in
          litigation with respect to collection of any payment (whether under a
          Mortgage, Mortgage Note or otherwise or against any public or
          governmental authority with respect to a taking or condemnation) if it
          reasonably believes that enforcing the provision of the Mortgage or
          other instrument pursuant to which such payment is required is
          prohibited by applicable law.

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

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

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

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

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

                                       46

<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

                                       47

<PAGE>

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

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

          (iv)   The institutions at which the Certificate Account and the
                 Distribution Account are maintained shall invest funds as
                 directed by the Master Servicer in Permitted Investments which
                 in both cases shall mature not later than (i) in the case of
                 the Certificate Account, the second Business Day next preceding
                 the related Distribution Account Deposit Date (except that if
                 such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the institution
                 that maintains such account, then such Permitted Investment
                 shall mature not later than the Business Day next preceding
                 such Distribution Account Deposit Date) and (ii) in the case of
                 the Distribution Account, the Business Day next preceding the
                 Distribution Date (except that if such Permitted Investment is
                 an obligation of the institution that maintains such fund or
                 account, then such Permitted Investment shall mature not later
                 than such Distribution Date) and, in each case, shall not be
                 sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All such Permitted
                 Investments shall be made in the name of the Trustee, for the
                 benefit of the Certificateholders. All income and gain net of
                 any losses realized from any such investment of funds on
                 deposit in the Certificate Account shall be for the benefit of
                 the Master Servicer as servicing compensation and all income
                 and gain net of any losses realized from any such investment of
                 funds on deposit in the Distribution Account shall be for the
                 benefit of the Trustee. The amount of any Realized Losses in
                 the Certificate Account in respect of any such investments
                 shall promptly be deposited by the Master Servicer in the
                 Certificate Account and the amount of any Realized Losses in
                 the Distribution Account in respect of any such investments
                 shall promptly be deposited by the Trustee into the
                 Distribution Account. All reinvestment income earned on amounts
                 on deposit in the Distribution Account shall be for the benefit
                 of the Trustee. The Trustee in its fiduciary capacity shall not
                 be liable for the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any
                 investment or lack of investment of funds held in the
                 Certificate Account and made in accordance with this Section
                 3.5.

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

                                       48

<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     Upon reasonable advance notice in writing, the Master Servicer will provide
to each Certificateholder which is a savings and loan association, bank or
insurance company certain reports and reasonable access to information and
documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans

                                       49

<PAGE>

sufficient to permit such Certificateholder to comply with applicable
regulations of the OTS or other regulatory authorities with respect to
investment in the Certificates; provided that the Master Servicer shall be
entitled to be reimbursed by each such Certificateholder for actual expenses
incurred by the Master Servicer in providing such reports and access.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

                                       50

<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         (a)      The Master Servicer shall cause to be maintained, for each
                  Mortgage Loan, hazard insurance with extended coverage in an
                  amount that is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum
                  insurable value of the improvements securing such Mortgage
                  Loan or (ii) the greater of (y) the outstanding principal
                  balance of the Mortgage Loan and (z) an amount such that the
                  proceeds of such policy shall be

                                       51

<PAGE>

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

         (b)      In the event that the Master Servicer shall obtain and
                  maintain a blanket policy insuring against hazard losses on
                  all of the Mortgage Loans, it shall conclusively be deemed to
                  have satisfied its obligations as set forth in the first
                  sentence of this Section, it being understood and agreed that
                  such policy may contain a deductible clause on terms
                  substantially equivalent to those commercially available and
                  maintained by comparable servicers. If such policy contains a
                  deductible clause, the Master Servicer shall, in the event
                  that there shall not have been maintained on the related
                  Mortgaged Property a policy complying with the first sentence
                  of this Section, and there shall have been a loss that would
                  have been covered by such policy, deposit in the applicable
                  subaccount of the Certificate Account the amount not otherwise
                  payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible
                  clause. In connection with its activities as Master Servicer
                  of the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to present,
                  on behalf of itself, the Depositor, and the Trustee for the
                  benefit of the Certificateholders, claims under any such
                  blanket policy.

         (c)      The Master Servicer shall not take any action which would
                  result in non-coverage under any applicable Primary Insurance
                  Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Master
                  Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. The Master

                                       52

<PAGE>

                  Servicer shall not cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary
                  Insurance Policy that is in effect at the date of the initial
                  issuance of the Certificates and is required to be kept in
                  force hereunder unless the replacement Primary Insurance
                  Policy for such canceled or non-renewed policy is maintained
                  with a Qualified Insurer.

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

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

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

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

         (a)      Except as otherwise provided in this Section, when any
                  property subject to a Mortgage has been conveyed by the
                  Mortgagor, the Master Servicer shall to the extent that it has
                  knowledge of such conveyance, enforce any due-on-sale clause
                  contained in any Mortgage Note or Mortgage, to the extent
                  permitted under applicable law and governmental regulations,
                  but only to the extent that such enforcement will not
                  adversely affect or jeopardize coverage under any Required
                  Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master
                  Servicer is not required to exercise such rights with respect
                  to a Mortgage Loan if the Person to whom the related Mortgaged
                  Property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed
                  satisfies the terms and conditions contained in the Mortgage
                  Note and Mortgage related thereto and the consent of the
                  mortgagee under such Mortgage Note or Mortgage is not
                  otherwise so required under such Mortgage Note or Mortgage as
                  a condition to such transfer. In the event that the Master
                  Servicer is prohibited by law from enforcing any such
                  due-on-sale clause, or if coverage under any Required
                  Insurance Policy would be adversely affected, or if
                  nonenforcement is otherwise permitted hereunder, the Master
                  Servicer is authorized, subject to Section 3.10(b), to take or
                  enter into an assumption and modification agreement from or
                  with the person to whom such property has been or is about to
                  be conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable
                  under the Mortgage Note and, unless prohibited by applicable
                  state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon, provided that
                  the Mortgage Loan shall continue to be

                                       53

<PAGE>

                  covered (if so covered before the Master Servicer enters such
                  agreement) by the applicable Required Insurance Policies. The
                  Master Servicer, subject to Section 3.10(b), is also
                  authorized with the prior approval of the insurers under any
                  Required Insurance Policies to enter into a substitution of
                  liability agreement with such Person, pursuant to which the
                  original Mortgagor is released from liability and such Person
                  is substituted as Mortgagor and becomes liable under the
                  Mortgage Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master
                  Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default under this
                  Section by reason of any transfer or assumption which the
                  Master Servicer reasonably believes it is restricted by law
                  from preventing, for any reason whatsoever.

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

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

         The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to foreclose upon or
otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the
Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no
satisfactory arrangements can be made for

                                       54

<PAGE>

collection of delinquent payments. In connection with such foreclosure or other
conversion, the Master Servicer shall follow such practices and procedures as it
shall deem necessary or advisable and as shall be normal and usual in its
general mortgage servicing activities and meet the requirements of the insurer
under any Required Insurance Policy; provided, however, that the Master Servicer
shall not be required to expend its own funds in connection with any foreclosure
or towards the restoration of any property unless it shall determine (i) that
such restoration and/or foreclosure will increase the proceeds of liquidation of
the Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself of such expenses and (ii) that
such expenses will be recoverable to it through Liquidation Proceeds (respecting
which it shall have priority for purposes of withdrawals from the Certificate
Account). The Master Servicer shall be responsible for all other costs and
expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however, that it
shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof from the liquidation proceeds with
respect to the related Mortgaged Property, as provided in the definition of
Liquidation Proceeds. If the Master Servicer has knowledge that a Mortgaged
Property which the Master Servicer is contemplating acquiring in foreclosure or
by deed in lieu of foreclosure is located within a 1 mile radius of any site
listed in the Expenditure Plan for the Hazardous Substance Clean Up Bond Act of
1984 or other site with environmental or hazardous waste risks known to the
Master Servicer, the Master Servicer will, prior to acquiring the Mortgaged
Property, consider such risks and only take action in accordance with its
established environmental review procedures.

         With respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale shall
be taken in the name of the Trust Fund for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, or its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders. The
Master Servicer shall ensure that the title to such REO Property references the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust Fund's capacity thereunder.
Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall
either itself or through an agent selected by the Master Servicer protect and
conserve such REO Property in the same manner and to such extent as is customary
in the locality where such REO Property is located and may, incident to its
conservation and protection of the interests of the Certificateholders, rent the
same, or any part thereof, as the Master Servicer deems to be in the best
interest of the Certificateholders for the period prior to the sale of such REO
Property. The Master Servicer shall prepare for and deliver to the Trustee a
statement with respect to each REO Property that has been rented showing the
aggregate rental income received and all expenses incurred in connection with
the management and maintenance of such REO Property at such times as is
necessary to enable the Trustee to comply with the reporting requirements of the
REMIC Provisions. The net monthly rental income, if any, from such REO Property
shall be deposited in the Certificate Account no later than the close of
business on each Determination Date. The Master Servicer shall perform the tax
reporting and withholding required by Sections 1445 and 6050J of the Code with
respect to foreclosures and abandonments, the tax reporting required by Section
6050H of the Code with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest from
individuals and any tax reporting required by Section 6050P of the Code with
respect to the cancellation of indebtedness by certain financial entities, by
preparing such tax and information returns as may be required, in the form
required, and delivering the same to the Trustee for filing.

         In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any Mortgaged Property as
aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged Property
prior to the close of the third taxable year after the taxable year of its
acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Trustee shall have been

                                       55

<PAGE>

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

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

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

         The proceeds from any liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, as well as any
income from an REO Property, will be applied in the following order of priority:
first, to reimburse the Master Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing
Advances and Master Servicing Fees; second, to reimburse the Master Servicer for
any unreimbursed Advances; third, to reimburse the applicable subaccount of the
Certificate Account for any Nonrecoverable Advances (or portions thereof) that
were previously withdrawn by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.8(a)(iii)
that related to such Mortgage Loan; fourth, to accrued and unpaid interest (to
the extent no Advance has been made for such amount or any such Advance has been
reimbursed) on the Mortgage Loan or

                                       56

<PAGE>

related REO Property, at the Adjusted Net Mortgage Rate to the Due Date
occurring in the month in which such amounts are required to be distributed; and
fifth, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan. Excess Proceeds, if any,
from the liquidation of a Liquidated Mortgage Loan will be retained by the
Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation pursuant to Section 3.14.

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

                  SECTION 3.12 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.

         Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the
Master Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a
manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer will immediately notify
the Trustee by delivering, or causing to be delivered a "Request for Release"
substantially in the form of Exhibit M. Upon receipt of such request, the
Trustee shall or shall cause the Custodian to promptly release the related
Mortgage File to the Master Servicer, and the Trustee shall at the Master
Servicer's direction execute and deliver to the Master Servicer the request for
reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or release or satisfaction of mortgage or
such instrument releasing the lien of the Mortgage in each case provided by the
Master Servicer, together with the Mortgage Note with written evidence of
cancellation thereon. Expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of
satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the related
Mortgagor. From time to time and as shall be appropriate for the servicing or
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including for such purpose, collection under
any policy of flood insurance, any fidelity bond or errors or omissions policy,
or for the purposes of effecting a partial release of any Mortgaged Property
from the lien of the Mortgage or the making of any corrections to the Mortgage
Note or the Mortgage or any of the other documents included in the Mortgage
File, the Trustee shall, upon delivery to the Trustee of a Request for Release
in the form of Exhibit L signed by a Servicing Officer, release the Mortgage
File to the Master Servicer. Subject to the further limitations set forth below,
the Master Servicer shall cause the Mortgage File or documents so released to be
returned to the Trustee or its Custodian when the need therefor by the Master
Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan is liquidated and the
proceeds thereof are deposited in the applicable subaccount of the Certificate
Account, in which case the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee a
Request for Release in the form of Exhibit M, signed by a Servicing Officer.

                                       57

<PAGE>

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

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

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

                  SECTION 3.14 Master Servicing Compensation.

         As compensation for its activities as Master Servicer hereunder and as
a subservicer pursuant to the Servicing Rights Transfer and Subservicing
Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to retain or withdraw from the
Certificate Account an amount equal to the Master Servicing Fee for each
Mortgage Loan, provided that the aggregate Master Servicing Fee with respect to
any Distribution Date shall be reduced (i) by the amount of any Compensating
Interest paid by the Master Servicer with respect to such Distribution Date, and
(ii) with respect to the first Distribution Date, an amount equal to any amount
to be deposited into the Distribution Account by the Depositor pursuant to
Section 2.1(a) and not so deposited.

         Additional servicing compensation in the form of (i) Retained Yield,
Excess Proceeds, Prepayment Interest Excess and all income and gain net of any
losses realized from Permitted Investments and (ii) prepayment penalties,
assumption fees and late payment charges in each case under the circumstances
and in the manner set forth in the applicable Mortgage Note or Mortgage shall be
retained by the Master Servicer to the extent not required to be deposited in

                                       58

<PAGE>

the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 3.5 hereof; provided that in the
event the Master Servicer is terminated pursuant to Section 7.1, the Retained
Yield shall be payable to First Horizon Home Loan Corporation in its individual
capacity and shall not be payable to the Trustee or any successor to the Master
Servicer. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by
it in connection with its master servicing activities hereunder (including
payment of any premiums for hazard insurance and any Primary Insurance Policy
and maintenance of the other forms of insurance coverage required by this
Agreement) and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as
specifically provided in this Agreement.

                  SECTION 3.15 Access to Certain Documentation.

         The Master Servicer shall provide to the OTS and the FDIC and to
comparable regulatory authorities supervising Holders of Subordinated
Certificates and the examiners and supervisory agents of the OTS, the FDIC and
such other authorities, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans
required by applicable regulations of the OTS and the FDIC. Such access shall be
afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable and prior written request and
during normal business hours at the offices designated by the Master Servicer.
Nothing in this Section shall limit the obligation of the Master Servicer to
observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the
Mortgagors and the failure of the Master Servicer to provide access as provided
in this Section as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of
this Section.

                  SECTION 3.16 Annual Statement as to Compliance.

         The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor and the Trustee on
or before 120 days after the end of the Master Servicer's fiscal year,
commencing with its 2003 fiscal year, an Officer's Certificate stating, as to
the signer thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Master Servicer
during the preceding calendar year and of the performance of the Master Servicer
under this Agreement has been made under such officer's supervision and (ii) to
the best of such officer's knowledge, based on such review, the Master Servicer
has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement throughout such year, or,
if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation,
specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status
thereof. The Trustee shall forward a copy of each such statement to each Rating
Agency.

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

         On or before 120 days after the end of the Master Servicer's fiscal
year, commencing with its 2003 fiscal year, the Master Servicer at its expense
shall cause a nationally or regionally recognized firm of independent public
accountants (who may also render other services to the Master Servicer, the
Seller or any affiliate thereof) which is a member of the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants to furnish a statement to the Trustee and the
Depositor to the effect that-such firm has examined certain documents and
records relating to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement or
of mortgage loans under pooling and servicing agreements substantially similar
to this Agreement (such statement to have attached thereto a schedule setting
forth the pooling and servicing agreements covered thereby) and that, on the

                                       59

<PAGE>

basis of such examination, conducted substantially in compliance with the
Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers or the Audit Program for
Mortgages serviced for FNMA and FHLMC, such servicing has been conducted in
compliance with such pooling and servicing agreements except for such
significant exceptions or errors in records that, in the opinion of such firm,
the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers or the Audit Program
for Mortgages serviced for FNMA and FHLMC requires it to report. In rendering
such statement, such firm may rely, as to matters relating to direct servicing
of mortgage loans by Subservicers, upon comparable statements for examinations
conducted substantially in compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation
Program for Mortgage Bankers or the Audit Program for Mortgages serviced for
FNMA and FHLMC (rendered within one year of such statement) of independent
public accountants with respect to the related Subservicer. Copies of such
statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder upon request
at the Master Servicer's expense, provided such statement is delivered by the
Master Servicer to the Trustee.

                  SECTION 3.18 Errors and Omissions Insurance; Fidelity Bonds.

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

                                   ARTICLE IV
                DISTRIBUTIONS AND ADVANCES BY THE MASTER SERVICER

                  SECTION 4.1 Advances.

         The Master Servicer shall determine on or before each Master Servicer
Advance Date whether it is required to make an Advance pursuant to the
definition thereof. If the Master Servicer determines it is required to make an
Advance, it shall, on or before the Master Servicer Advance Date, either (i)
deposit into the applicable subaccount of the Certificate Account an amount
equal to the Advance or (ii) make an appropriate entry in its records relating
to the applicable subaccount of the Certificate Account that any Amount Held for
Future Distribution has been used by the Master Servicer in discharge of its
obligation to make any such Advance. Any funds so applied shall be replaced by
the Master Servicer by deposit in the applicable subaccount of the Certificate
Account no later than the close of business on the next Master Servicer Advance
Date. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the applicable
subaccount of the Certificate Account for all Advances of its own funds made
pursuant to this Section as provided in Section 3.8. The obligation to make
Advances with respect to any Mortgage Loan shall continue if such Mortgage Loan
has been foreclosed or otherwise terminated and the related Mortgaged Property
has not been liquidated.

                                       60

<PAGE>

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

          SECTION 4.2 Priorities of Distribution.

     (a)  On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall withdraw the Available
          Funds for each Certificate Group from the applicable subaccount of the
          Distribution Account and apply such funds to distributions on the
          Certificates of the related Certificate Group in the following order
          and priority and, in each case, to the extent of Available Funds
          remaining:

          (i)    to the Classes of Senior Certificates of the related
                 Certificate Group, the Accrued Certificate Interest on each
                 such Class for such Distribution Date, any shortfall in
                 available amounts being allocated among such Classes in
                 proportion to the amount of Accrued Certificate Interest
                 otherwise distributable thereon; provided, however, that on
                 each Distribution Date through the applicable Accretion
                 Termination Date, such amounts with respect to the Accrual
                 Certificates will not be distributed on such Certificates under
                 this Section 4.2(a)(i) but will instead be added to the Class
                 Certificate Balances thereof and distributed in accordance with
                 Section 4.2(b)(i) below;

          (ii)    to the Classes of Senior Certificates of the related
                  Certificate Group, any Accrued Certificate Interest thereon
                  remaining undistributed from previous Distribution Dates, to
                  the extent of remaining Available Funds from the related
                  Mortgage Pool, any shortfall in available amounts being
                  allocated among such Classes in proportion to the amount of
                  such Accrued Certificate Interest remaining undistributed for
                  each such Class for such Distribution Date; provided, however,
                  that on each Distribution Date through the applicable
                  Accretion Termination Date, such amounts with respect to the
                  Accrual Certificates will not be distributed on such
                  Certificates under this Section 4.2(a)(ii) but will instead be
                  added to the Class Certificate Balances thereof, to the extent
                  not previously added pursuant to Section 4.2(a)(i) above, and
                  distributed in accordance with Section 4.2(b)(i) below;

          (iii)   to the Classes of Senior Certificates of the related
                  Certificate Group, in reduction of the Class Certificate
                  Balances thereof, to the extent of remaining Available Funds
                  from the related Mortgage Pool, the related Senior Optimal
                  Principal Amount for such Distribution Date, in the order of
                  priority set forth below in Section 4.2(b), until the
                  respective Class Certificate Balances thereof have been
                  reduced to zero;

          (iv)    to the Class B-1 Certificates, to the extent of remaining
                  Available Funds for both Mortgage Pools, but subject to the
                  prior payment of amounts described under Section 4.2(g), in

<PAGE>

                  Certificate Interest thereon for such Distribution Date, (2)
                  any Accrued Certificate Interest thereon remaining
                  undistributed from previous Distribution Dates and (3) such
                  Class' Allocable Share for such Distribution Date;

                  the following order: (1) the Accrued Certificate Interest
                  thereon for such Distribution Date, (2) any Accrued
                  Certificate Interest thereon remaining undistributed from
                  previous Distribution Dates and (3) such Class' Allocable
                  Share for such Distribution Date;

          (vii)   to the Class B-4 Certificates, to the extent of remaining
                  Available Funds for both Mortgage Pools, but subject to the
                  prior payment of amounts described under Section 4.2(g) in the
                  following order: (1) the Accrued Certificate Interest thereon

                  prior payment of amounts described under Section 4.2(g) in the
                  following order: (1) the Accrued Certificate Interest thereon
                  for such Distribution Date, (2) any Accrued Certificate
                  Interest thereon remaining undistributed from previous
                  Distribution Dates and (3) such Class' Allocable Share for
                  such Distribution Date; and

          (ix)    to the Class B-6 Certificates, to the extent of remaining
                  Available Funds for both Mortgage Pools, but subject to the
                  prior payment of amounts described under Section 4.2(g) in the
                  following order: (1) the Accrued Certificate Interest thereon

                  Interest thereon remaining undistributed from previous
                  Distribution Dates and (3) such Class' Allocable Share for
                  such Distribution Date.

     (b)  (i) On each Distribution Date prior to the Accretion Termination Date,

          Amount for the Class I-A-2 Certificates will be added to the Class
          Certificate Balance thereof and will be distributed in reduction of
          the Class Certificate Balances of the specified Certificate Classes in
          the following priority:

                  (A)    to the Class I-A-1 Certificates, until their Class
                         Certificate Balance has been reduced to zero;

                  (B)    to the Class I-A-2 Certificates, until their Class
                         Certificate Balance has been reduced to zero.

          (ii)    Amounts allocated to the Senior Certificates corresponding to
                  Pool I pursuant to Section 4.2(a)(iii) above will be
                  distributed in the following order of priority:

                  (A)    to the Class I-A-R Certificates, until their
                         outstanding Class Certificate Balance has been reduced
                         to zero;

                  (B)    to the Class I-A-3 Certificates, an amount up to the
                         Class I-A-3 Principal Distribution Amount for that
                         date, until their Class Certificate Balance has been
                         reduced to zero;

                  (C)    sequentially, to the Class I-A-1 and Class I-A 2
                         Certificates, in that order, until their respective
                         Class Certificate Balances have been reduced to zero;
                         and

                  (D)    the remaining Senior Optional Principal Amount to the
                         Class I-A-3 Certificates, without regard to the Class
                         I-A-3 Distribution Amount, until their Class
                         Certificate Balance has been reduced to zero.

          (iii)   Amounts allocated to the Senior Certificates corresponding to
                  Pool II pursuant to Section 4.2(a)(iii) above will be
                  distributed to the Class II-A-1 Certificates until their Class
                  Certificate Balance has been reduced to zero.

     (c)  On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute to the Holders
          of the Class I-A-R Certificates any Available Funds remaining in the
          REMIC for such Distribution Date after application of all amounts
          described in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 4.2 on such
          Distribution Date. Any distributions pursuant to this subsection (c)
          shall not reduce the Class Certificate Balance of the Class I-A-R
          Certificates.

     (d)  On and after the Cross-Over Date, the amount distributable to the
          Senior Certificates of the related Certificate Group pursuant to
          Section 4.2(a)(iii) for the related Distribution Date shall be
          allocated among the related Classes of Senior Certificates, pro rata,
          on the basis of their respective Class Certificate Balances
          immediately prior to such Distribution Date, regardless of the
          priorities and amounts set forth in Section 4.2.

                                       63

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

     (f)  In the event that in any calendar month the Master Servicer recovers
          an amount (an "Unanticipated Recovery") in respect of principal of a
          Mortgage Loan which had previously been allocated as a Realized Loss
          to any Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 4.4, on the
          Distribution Date in the next succeeding calendar month the Trustee,
          shall withdraw from the Distribution Account and distribute to the
          Holders of each outstanding Class to which such Realized Loss had
          previously been allocated its share (determined as described in the
          succeeding paragraph) of such Unanticipated Recovery in an amount not
          to exceed the amount of such Realized Loss previously allocated to
          such Class. When the Class Certificate Balance of a Class of
          Certificates has been reduced to zero, the Holders of such Class shall
          not be entitled to any share of an Unanticipated Recovery, and such
          Unanticipated Recovery shall be allocated among all outstanding
          Classes of Certificates entitled thereto in accordance with the
          preceding sentence, subject to the remainder of this subsection (f).
          In the event that (i) any Unanticipated Recovery remains undistributed
          in accordance with the preceding sentence or (ii) the amount of an
          Unanticipated Recovery exceeds the amount of the Realized Loss
          previously allocated to any outstanding Classes with respect to the
          related Mortgage Loan, on the applicable Distribution Date the Trustee
          shall distribute to the Holders of all outstanding Classes of the
          related Certificates to which Realized Losses had previously been
          allocated and not reimbursed their pro rata share (determined as
          described below) of such excess in an amount not to exceed the
          aggregate amount of any Realized Loss previously allocated to such
          Class with respect to any other Mortgage Loan that has not been
          recovered in accordance with this subsection (f). Any distributions
          made pursuant to this subsection (f) shall not reduce the Class
          Certificate Balance of the related Certificate.

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

     (g)  On any Distribution Date on which any Certificate Group constitutes an
          Undercollateralized Group, all amounts otherwise distributable as
          principal on the Subordinated Certificates, in reverse order of
          priority (or, following the Cross-over Date, such other amounts
          described in the immediately following sentence), will be distributed
          as principal to the Senior Certificates of such Undercollateralized
          Group in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 4.2(b),
          until the total Class Certificate Balance of such Senior Certificates
          equals the Pool Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Pool (such
          distribution, an "Undercollateralization Distribution"). In the event
          that the Senior Certificates of a Certificate Group constitute an
          Undercollateralized Group on any Distribution Date following the
          Cross-over Date, Undercollateralization Distributions will be made
          from the excess of the Available Funds for the other Mortgage Pool
          remaining after all required amounts for that Distribution Date have
          been distributed to the Senior Certificates of the other Certificate
          Group. In addition, the amount of any unpaid Net Interest Shortfalls
          with respect to the Undercollateralized Group (including any Net
          Interest Shortfalls for the related Distribution Date) will be
          distributed to the Senior Certificates of the Undercollateralized
          Group prior to the payment of any Undercollateralization Distributions
          from amounts otherwise distributable as principal on the Subordinated
          Certificates, in reverse order of priority (or, following the
          Cross-over Date, as provided in the preceding sentence).

          In addition, if on any Distribution Date the total Class Certificate
          Balance of the Senior Certificates of a Certificate Group (after
          giving effect to distributions to be made on that Distribution Date)
          has been reduced to zero, all amounts otherwise distributable as
          prepayments of principal to the Subordinated Certificates, in reverse
          order of priority, will instead be distributed as principal to the
          Senior Certificates of the other Certificate Group unless (a) the
          weighted average of the Subordinated Percentages for both Mortgage
          Pools, weighted on the basis of the stated principal balance of the
          Mortgage Loans in the related Mortgage Pool, is at least two times the
          weighted average of the initial Subordinate Percentage for both
          Mortgage Pools (calculated on such basis) and (b) the aggregate Stated
          Principal Balance of all of the Mortgage Loans in both Mortgage Pools
          delinquent 60 days or more (including for this purpose any such
          Mortgage Loans in foreclosure or subject to bankruptcy proceedings and
          Mortgage Loans with respect to which the related Mortgaged Property
          has been acquired by the Trust Fund), averaged over the preceding six
          month period, as a percentage of the then current aggregate Class
          Certificate Balance of the Subordinated Certificates, is less than
          50%. All distributions described above will be made in accordance with
          the priorities set forth in Section 4.2(b).

          SECTION 4.3 Method of Distribution.

     (a)  All distributions with respect to each Class of Certificates on each
          Distribution Date shall be made pro rata among the outstanding
          Certificates of such Class, based on the Percentage Interest in such
          Class represented by each Certificate. Payments to the
          Certificateholders on each Distribution Date will be made by the

                                       65

<PAGE>

          Trustee to the Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date
          by check or money order mailed to a Certificateholder at the address
          appearing in the Certificate Register, or upon written request by such
          Certificateholder to the Trustee made not later than the applicable
          Record Date, by wire transfer to a U.S. depository institution
          acceptable to the Trustee, or by such other means of payment as such
          Certificateholder and the Trustee shall agree.

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

     (c)  The Trustee shall withhold or cause to be withheld such amounts as it
          reasonably determines are required by the Code (giving full effect to
          any exemptions from withholding and related certifications required to
          be furnished by Certificateholders or Certificate Owners and any
          reductions to withholding by virtue of any bilateral tax treaties and
          any applicable certification required to be furnished by
          Certificateholders or Certificate Owners with respect thereto) from
          distributions to be made to Non-U.S. Persons. If the Trustee
          reasonably determines that a more accurate determination of the amount
          required to be withheld for a distribution can be made within a
          reasonable period after the scheduled date for such distribution, it
          may hold such distribution in trust for a Holder of a Residual
          Certificate until such determination can be made. For the purposes of
          this paragraph, a "Non-U.S. Person" is (i) an individual other than a
          citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a partnership,
          corporation or entity treated as a partnership or corporation for U.S.
          federal income tax purposes not formed under the laws of the United
          States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia (unless, in the
          case of a partnership, Treasury regulations provide otherwise), (iii)
          any estate, the income of which is not subject to U.S. federal income
          taxation, regardless of source, and (iv) any trust, other than a trust
          that a court within the United States is able to exercise primary
          supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S.
          Persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the
          trust.

          SECTION 4.4 Allocation of Losses.

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

                                       66

<PAGE>

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

               first, to the Class B-6 Certificates until the Class Certificate
               Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

               second, to the Class B-5 Certificates until the Class Certificate
               Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

               third, to the Class B-4 Certificates until the Class Certificate
               Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

               fourth, to the Class B-3 Certificates until the Class Certificate
               Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

               fifth, to the Class B-2 Certificates until the Class Certificate
               Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

               sixth, to the Class B-1 Certificates until the Class Certificate
               Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

               seventh, to the Classes of Senior Certificates of the related
               Certificate Group , pro rata, in accordance with their Class
               Certificate Balances; provided, that any such loss allocated to
               the Accrual Certificates shall instead be allocated on the basis
               of the lesser of (x) the Class Certificate Balance thereof
               immediately prior to the applicable Distribution Date and (y) the
               Class Certificate Balance thereof on the Closing Date (as reduced
               by any Realized Losses previously allocated thereto).

     (c)  With respect to any Distribution Date, the principal portion of any
          Excess Loss with respect to a Mortgage Pool (other than Excess
          Bankruptcy Losses attributable to Debt Service Reductions) shall be
          allocated pro rata to each Class of Certificates of the related
          Certificate Group based on their respective Class Certificate Balances
          (in the case of the Senior Certificates) or Apportioned Principal
          Balances (in the case of the Subordinated Certificates); provided,
          that any such loss allocated to the Accrual Certificates shall instead
          be allocated on the basis of the lesser of (x) the Class Certificate
          Balance thereof immediately prior to the applicable Distribution Date
          and (y) the Class Certificate Balance thereof on the Closing Date (as
          reduced by any Realized Losses previously allocated thereto).

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

                                       67

     (e)  Realized Losses allocated in accordance with this Section 4.4 shall be
          allocated on the Distribution Date in the month following the month in
          which such loss was incurred and, (i) in the case of the principal
          portion thereof, after giving effect to the distributions made on such
          Distribution Date and (ii) in the case of the interest portion
          thereof, after giving effect to the calculation of the Accrual Amount
          for the Accrual Certificates for such Distribution Date. On each
          Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall determine the
          Subordinated Certificate Writedown Amount, if any. Any such
          Subordinated Certificate Writedown Amount shall effect, without
          duplication of any other provision in this Section 4.4 that provides
          for a reduction in the Class Certificate Balance of the Subordinated
          Certificates, a corresponding reduction in the Class Certificate
          Balance of the Subordinated Certificates, which reduction shall occur
          on such Distribution Date after giving effect to distributions made on
          such Distribution Date.

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

          SECTION 4.5 Reserved.

          SECTION 4.6 Monthly Statements to Certificateholders.

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

          (i)     the amount thereof allocable to principal, separately
                  identifying the aggregate amount of any Principal Prepayments
                  and Liquidation Proceeds included therein;

          (ii)    the amount thereof allocable to interest, the amount of any
                  Compensating Interest included in such distribution and any
                  remaining Net Interest Shortfalls after giving effect to such
                  distribution;

          (iii)   if the distribution to the Holders of such Class of
                  Certificates is less than the full amount that would be
                  distributable to such Holders if there were

     (c)  On or before the fifth Business Day following the end of each

          prior to the related Distribution Date), the Master Servicer shall
          deliver to the Trustee (which delivery may be by electronic data
          transmission) a report in substantially the form set forth as Schedule
          III hereto.

     (d)  Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar

          (a)(vii) of this Section 4.6 aggregated for such calendar year or

          information shall be provided by the Trustee pursuant to any
          requirements of the Code as from time to time in effect.

                                THE CERTIFICATES

          SECTION 5.1 The Certificates.

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

     Subject to Section 9.2 hereof respecting the final distribution on the
Certificates, on each Distribution Date the Trustee shall make distributions to
each Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date either (x) by wire
transfer in immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank
or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if (i) such Holder has
so notified the Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the related Record
Date and (ii) such Holder shall hold (A) 100% of the Class Certificate Balance
of any Class of Certificates or (B) Certificates of any Class with aggregate
principal Denominations of not less than $1,000,000

                                       70

or (y) by check mailed by first class mail to such Certificateholder at the
address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate Register.

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

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

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

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

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

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

                                       71

<PAGE>

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

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

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

                                       72

<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

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

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

                                       73

<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

                                       74

<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

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

                                       75

<PAGE>

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

          SECTION 5.3 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.

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

          SECTION 5.4 Persons Deemed Owners.

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

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

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

                                       76

<PAGE>

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

          SECTION 5.6 Maintenance of Office or Agency.

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

                                   ARTICLE VI
                      THE DEPOSITOR AND THE MASTER SERVICER

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

                                       77

<PAGE>

Servicer or any such Person from any liability which would otherwise be imposed
by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the
performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and
duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Depositor or the Master Servicer may rely in good faith
on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any
Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor, the Master
Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the
Master Servicer shall be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless against
any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any audit,
controversy or judicial proceeding relating to a governmental taxing authority
or any legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than
any loss, liability or expense related to any specific Mortgage Loan or Mortgage
Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise
reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) and any loss, liability or expense
incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the
performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of
obligations and duties hereunder. Neither the Depositor nor the Master Servicer
shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action
that is not incidental to its respective duties hereunder and which in its
opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that
either the Depositor or the Master Servicer may in its discretion undertake any
such action that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement
and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and interests of the Trustee and
the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of
such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and
liabilities of the Trust Fund, and the Depositor and the Master Servicer shall
be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of the applicable subaccount of the
Certificate Account.

          SECTION 6.4 Limitation on Resignation of Master Servicer.

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

                                  ARTICLE VII
                                     DEFAULT

          SECTION 7.1 Events of Default.

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

          (i)  any failure by the Master Servicer to deposit in the applicable
               subaccount of the Certificate Account or remit to the Trustee any
               payment required to be made under the terms of this Agreement,
               which failure shall continue unremedied for five days after the
               date upon which written notice of such

                                       78

<PAGE>

                failure shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the
                Trustee or the Depositor or to the Master Servicer and the
                Trustee by the Holders of Certificates having not less than 25%
                of the Voting Rights evidenced by the Certificates; or

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

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

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

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

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

                                       79

<PAGE>

any Advance which the Master Servicer failed to make subject to Section 4.1
hereof. The Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver,
on behalf of the Master Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all
documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or
things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of
termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of
the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. Unless expressly
provided in such written notice, no such termination shall affect any obligation
of the Master Servicer to pay amounts owed pursuant to Article VIII. The Master
Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of
the Master Servicer's responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without
limitation, the transfer to the Trustee of all cash amounts which shall at the
time be credited to the Certificate Account, or thereafter be received with
respect to the Mortgage Loans. All expenses incurred in the transferring of the
servicing duties from the Master Servicer to a Successor Servicer shall be paid
by the Master Servicer, and if not paid by the Master Servicer, shall be paid
from amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account. Any termination of the
activities of the Master Servicer hereunder will simultaneously result in the
termination of the Master Servicer's duties as a subservicer pursuant to the
Servicing Rights Transfer and Subservicing Agreement.

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

          SECTION 7.2 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.

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

                                       80

<PAGE>

an agreement accepting such delegation and assignment, which contains an
assumption by such Person of the rights, powers, duties, responsibilities,
obligations and liabilities of the Master Servicer (other than liabilities of
the Master Servicer under Section 6.3 hereof incurred prior to termination of
the Master Servicer under Section 7.1), with like effect as if originally named
as a party to this Agreement; and provided further that each Rating Agency
acknowledges that its rating of the Certificates in effect immediately prior to
such assignment and delegation will not be qualified or reduced, as a result of
such assignment and delegation. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master
Servicer hereunder, the Trustee, unless the Trustee is prohibited by law from so
acting, shall, subject to Section 3.4 hereof, act in such capacity as provided
above. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make
such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on
Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no
such compensation shall be in excess of the Master Servicing Fee permitted the
Master Servicer hereunder. The Trustee and such successor shall take such
action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any
such succession. Neither the Trustee nor any other successor master servicer
shall be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of any failure to make, or
any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof or any
failure to perform, or any delay in performing, any duties or responsibilities
hereunder, in either case caused by the failure of the Master Servicer to
deliver or provide, or any delay in delivering or providing, any cash,
information, documents or records to it.

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

          SECTION 7.3 Notification to Certificateholders.

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

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

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                             CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

          SECTION 8.1 Duties of Trustee.

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

                                       81

<PAGE>

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.

     The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements,
opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the
Trustee that are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision
of this Agreement shall examine them to determine whether they are in the form
required by this Agreement; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be
responsible for the accuracy or content of any such resolution, certificate,
statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument. If any such
instrument is found not to conform in any material respect to the requirements
of this Agreement, the Trustee shall notify the Certificateholders of such
instrument in the event that the Trustee, after so requesting, does not receive
a satisfactorily corrected instrument.

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

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

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

          (iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
                taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in
                accordance with the direction of Holders of Certificates
                evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights of
                Certificates relating to the time, method and place of
                conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the
                Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the
                Trustee under this Agreement;

          (iv)  the Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own
                funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance
                of any of its duties hereunder or the exercise of any of its
                rights or powers if there is reasonable ground for believing
                that the repayment of such funds or

                                       82

<PAGE>

                adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured
                to it, and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement
                shall in any event require the Trustee to perform, or be
                responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the
                obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement except
                during such time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor
                to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges
                of, the Master Servicer; and

          (v)   without limiting the generality of this Section 8.1, the Trustee
                shall have no duty (A) to see to any recording, filing, or
                depositing of this Agreement or any agreement referred to herein
                or any financing statement or continuation statement evidencing
                a security interest, or to see to the maintenance of any such
                recording or filing or deposit or to any rerecording, refiling
                or redepositing of any thereof, (B) to see to any insurance, (C)
                to see to the payment or discharge of any tax, assessment, or
                other governmental charge or any lien or encumbrance of any kind
                owing with respect to, assessed or levied against, any part of
                the Trust Fund other than from funds available in the
                Distribution Account (D) to confirm or verify the contents of
                any reports or certificates of the Servicer delivered to the
                Trustee pursuant to this Agreement believed by the Trustee to be
                genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party
                or parties.

          SECTION 8.2 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.

     Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.1:

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

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

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

                                       83

          (iv)    the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into
                  the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate,
                  statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,
                  consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document,
                  unless requested in writing so to do by Holders of
                  Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights
                  allocated to each Class of Certificates; provided, however,
                  that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of
                  the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it
                  in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the
                  Trustee, not assured to the Trustee by the security afforded
                  to it by the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee may require
                  indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against such cost,
                  expense or liability as a condition to taking any such action.
                  The reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid
                  by the Master Servicer or, if paid by the Trustee, shall be
                  repaid by the Master Servicer upon demand from the Servicer's
                  own funds.

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

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

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

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

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

          (x)     the right of the Trustee to perform any discretionary act
                  enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty,
                  and the Trustee shall not be

                                       84

<PAGE>

                  answerable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct
                  in the performance of such act; and

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

          SECTION 8.3 Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.

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

          SECTION 8.4 Trustee May Own Certificates.

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

          SECTION 8.5 Trustee's Fees and Expenses.

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

                                       85

<PAGE>

connection with preparing any Definitive Certificates. Except as otherwise
provided herein, the Trustee shall not be entitled to payment or reimbursement
for any routine ongoing expenses incurred by the Trustee in the ordinary course
of its duties as Trustee, Registrar, Tax Matters Person or Paying Agent
hereunder or for any other expenses.

          SECTION 8.6 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.

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

          SECTION 8.7 Resignation and Removal of Trustee.

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

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

                                       86

<PAGE>

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

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

          SECTION 8.8 Successor Trustee.

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

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

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

          SECTION 8.9 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.

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

                                       87

          SECTION 8.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

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

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

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

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

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

                                       88

<PAGE>

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

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

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

          SECTION 8.11 Tax Matters.

     It is intended that the assets with respect to which the REMIC election is
to be made, as set forth in the preliminary statement shall constitute, and that
the conduct of matters relating to such assets shall be such as to qualify such
assets as, a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" as defined in and in
accordance with the REMIC Provisions. In furtherance of such intention, the
Trustee covenants and agrees that it shall act as agent (and the Trustee is
hereby appointed to act as agent) on behalf of the REMIC and that in such
capacity it shall: (a) prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, in a
timely manner, a U.S. Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit Income Tax Return
(Form 1066 or any successor form adopted by the Internal Revenue Service) and
prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed with the Internal Revenue
Service and applicable state or local tax authorities income tax or information
returns for each taxable year with respect to the REMIC, containing such
information and at the times and in the manner as may be required by the Code or
state or local tax laws, regulations, or rules, and furnish or cause to be
furnished to Certificateholders the schedules, statements or information at such
times and in such manner as may be required thereby; (b) within thirty days of
the Closing Date, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Internal Revenue
Service, on Forms 8811 or as otherwise may be required by the Code, the name,
title, address, and telephone number of the person that the Holders of the
Certificates may contact for tax information relating thereto, together with
such additional information as may be required by such Form, and update such
information at the time or times in the manner required by the Code; (c) make or
cause to be made elections that such assets be treated as a REMIC on the federal
tax return for its first taxable year (and, if necessary, under applicable state
law); (d) prepare and forward, or cause to be prepared and forwarded, to the
Certificateholders and to the Internal Revenue Service and, if necessary, state
tax authorities, all information returns and reports as and when required to be
provided to them in accordance

                                       89

<PAGE>

with the REMIC Provisions, including without limitation, the calculation of any
original issue discount using the prepayment assumption; (e) provide information
necessary for the computation of tax imposed on the transfer of a Residual
Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, or an agent
(including a broker, nominee or other middleman) of a Non-Permitted Transferee,
or a pass-through entity in which a Non-Permitted Transferee is the record
holder of an interest (the reasonable cost of computing and furnishing such
information may be charged to the Person liable for such tax); (f) to the extent
that they are under its control conduct matters relating to such assets at all
times that any Certificates are outstanding so as to maintain the status as a
REMIC under the REMIC Provisions; (g) not knowingly or intentionally take any
action or omit to take any action that would cause the termination of the REMIC
status; (h) pay, from the sources specified in the last paragraph of this
Section 8.11, the amount of any federal or state tax, including prohibited
transaction taxes as described below, imposed on the REMIC prior to its
termination when and as the same shall be due and payable (but such obligation
shall not prevent the Trustee or any other appropriate Person from contesting
any such tax in appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the Trustee from
withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of
such proceedings); (i) ensure that federal, state or local income tax or
information returns shall be signed by the Trustee or such other person as may
be required to sign such returns by the Code or state or local laws, regulations
or rules; (j) maintain records relating to the REMIC, including but not limited
to the income, expenses, assets and liabilities thereof and the fair market
value and adjusted basis of the assets determined at such intervals as may be
required by the Code, as may be necessary to prepare the foregoing returns,
schedules, statements or information; and (k) as and when necessary and
appropriate, represent the REMIC in any administrative or judicial proceedings
relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority,
request an administrative adjustment as to any taxable year of the REMIC, enter
into settlement agreements with any governmental taxing agency, extend any
statute of limitations relating to any tax item of the REMIC, and otherwise act
on behalf of the REMIC in relation to any tax matter or controversy involving
it.

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

     In the event that any tax is imposed on "prohibited transactions" of the
REMIC as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the "net income from
foreclosure property" of the REMIC as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, on
any contribution to the REMIC after the Startup Day pursuant to Section 860G(d)
of the Code, or any other tax is imposed, if not paid as otherwise provided for
herein, such tax shall be paid by (i) the Trustee, if any such other tax arises
out of or results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its obligations under
this

                                       90

<PAGE>

Agreement which breach was caused by its negligence or willful misconduct, (ii)
the Master Servicer, in the case of any such minimum tax, or if such tax arises
out of or results from a breach by the Master Servicer of any of their
obligations under this Agreement, (iii) the Seller, if any such tax arises out
of or results from the Seller's obligation to repurchase a Mortgage Loan
pursuant to Section 2.2 or 2.3 or (iv) in all other cases, or in the event that
the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Seller fails to honor its obligations
under the preceding clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), any such tax will be paid with
amounts otherwise to be distributed to the Certificateholders, as provided in
Section 3.8(b).

          SECTION 8.12 Periodic Filings.

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

                                   TERMINATION

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

     Subject to Section 9.3, the obligations and responsibilities of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee created hereby with respect to
the Trust Fund shall terminate upon the earlier of (a) the purchase by the
Master Servicer of all Mortgage Loans (and REO Properties) and other assets
remaining in the Trust Fund at the price equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the
Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan (other than a Mortgage Loan that
has been foreclosed and subject to clause (ii)) plus one month's accrued
interest thereon at the applicable Adjusted Mortgage Rate and (ii) the lesser of
(x) the appraised value of any REO Property as determined by the higher of two
appraisals completed by two independent appraisers selected by the Master
Servicer at the expense of the Master Servicer and (y) the Stated Principal
Balance of each Mortgage Loan related to any REO Property, in each case plus
accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the applicable Adjusted Mortgage Rate and
(b) the later of (i) the maturity or other liquidation (or any Advance with
respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and the
disposition of all REO Property and (ii) the distribution to Certificateholders
of all amounts required to be distributed to them pursuant to this Agreement. In
no event shall the trusts created hereby continue beyond the earlier of (i) the
expiration of 21 years from the death of the survivor of the descendants of
Joseph P. Kennedy, the late Ambassador of the

                                       91

United States to the Court of St. James's, living on the date hereof, and (ii)
the Latest Possible Maturity Date. The right to purchase all Mortgage Loans and
REO Properties pursuant to clause (a) above shall be conditioned upon the Pool
Principal Balance for both Mortgage Pools, at the time of any such repurchase,
aggregating less than ten percent of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal
Balance of the Mortgage Loans.

          SECTION 9.2 Final Distribution on the Certificates.

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

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

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

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

                                       92

<PAGE>

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

          SECTION 9.3 Additional Termination Requirements.

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

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

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

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

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

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

          SECTION 11.1 Amendment.

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

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

                                       94

<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

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

          SECTION 11.2 Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.

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

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

          SECTION 11.3 Governing Law.

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

                                       95

<PAGE>

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

                  SECTION 11.4 Intention of Parties.

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

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

                  SECTION 11.5 Notices.

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

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

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

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

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

                                       96

                        (5)  The final payment to Certificateholders.

                        (6)  Any rating action involving the long-term credit
                             rating of the Master Servicer, which notice shall
                             be made by first-class mail within two Business

                             thereof.

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

                             Section 3.16;

                        (9)  Each annual independent public accountants'
                             servicing report described in Section 3.17; and

                        (10) Any notice of a purchase of a Mortgage Loan
                             pursuant to Section 2.2, 2.3 or 3.11.

         (b)      All directions, demands, authorizations, consents, waivers,
                  communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and

                  SECTION 11.7 Assignment.

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

                  SECTION 11.8 Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders.

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

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

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

                  SECTION 11.9 Inspection and Audit Rights.

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

                                       98

<PAGE>

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

                  SECTION 11.10 Certificates Nonassessable and Fully Paid.

         It is the intention of the Depositor that Certificateholders shall not
be personally liable for obligations of the Trust Fund, that the interests in

                Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates Series 2002-9

              Representations and Warranties of the Master Servicer

     First Horizon Home Loan Corporation ("First Horizon") hereby makes the
representations and warranties set forth in this Schedule II to the Depositor
and the Trustee, as of the Closing Date, or if so specified herein, as of the
Cut-off Date. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Schedule
II shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement (the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement") relating to the
above-referenced Series, among First Horizon, as master servicer, First Horizon
Asset Securities Inc., as depositor, and The Bank of New York, as trustee.

          (1)   First Horizon is duly organized as a Kansas corporation and is
     validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Kansas
     and is duly authorized and qualified to transact any and all business
     contemplated by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be conducted by
     First Horizon in any state in which a Mortgaged Property is located or is
     otherwise not required under applicable law to effect such qualification
     and, in any event, is in compliance with the doing business laws of any
     such state, to the extent necessary to ensure its ability to enforce each
     Mortgage Loan, to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms
     of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and to perform any of its other
     obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in accordance with
     the terms thereof.

          (2)   First Horizon has the full corporate power and authority to
     service each Mortgage Loan, and to execute, deliver and perform, and to
     enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by the Pooling and
     Servicing Agreement and has duly authorized by all necessary corporate
     action on the part of First Horizon the execution, delivery and performance
     of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; and the Pooling and Servicing
     Agreement, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof
     by the other parties thereto, constitutes a legal, valid and binding
     obligation of First Horizon, enforceable against First Horizon in
     accordance with its terms, except that (a) the enforceability thereof may
     be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership and other
     similar laws relating to creditors' rights generally and (b) the remedy of
     specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may
     be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before
     which any proceeding therefor may be brought.

          (3)   The execution and delivery of the Pooling and Servicing
     Agreement by First Horizon, the servicing of the Mortgage Loans by First
     Horizon under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the consummation of any
     other of the transactions contemplated by the Pooling and Servicing
     Agreement, and the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms thereof are
     in the ordinary course of business of First Horizon and will not (A) result
     in a material breach of any term or provision of the charter or by-laws of
     First Horizon or (B) materially conflict with, result in a material breach,
     violation or acceleration of, or result in a material default under, the
     terms of any other material agreement or instrument to which First Horizon
     is a party or by which it may be bound,

                                      II-1

     or (C) constitute a material violation of any statute, order or regulation
     applicable to First Horizon of any court, regulatory body, administrative
     agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over First Horizon; and
     First Horizon is not in breach or violation of any material indenture or
     other material agreement or instrument, or in violation of any statute,
     order or regulation of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or
     governmental body having jurisdiction over it which breach or violation may
     materially impair First Horizon's ability to perform or meet any of its
     obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

          (4)   No litigation is pending or, to the best of First Horizon's
     knowledge, threatened against First Horizon that would prohibit the
     execution or delivery of, or performance under, the Pooling and Servicing
     Agreement by First Horizon.
