4.1       Funding Performance Measures

          (a)  The Committee shall establish Corporate and Business Unit funding
               performance  measures  ("Funding  Performance  Measures")  and  a
               Corporation  Minimum  Financial  Requirement for each Performance
               Period  on the  basis of such  criteria  and to  accomplish  such
               objectives as the Committee may from time to time select. Funding
               Performance  Measures  may include  performance  criteria for the
               Corporation,  a subsidiary,  a Business Unit, an operating group,
               or a division of the Company or a subsidiary.

          (b)  During  any  Performance  Period,  the  Committee  may adjust the
               Funding  Performance  Measures for such Performance  Period as it
               deems equitable in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring  events
               affecting  the  Company,   changes  in  applicable  tax  laws  or
               accounting principles, or such other factors as the Committee may
               determine.

          (c)  The  Funding   Performance   Measures  shall  be  any  one  or  a
               combination of net income,  earnings per share, return on equity,
               return on assets,  stock price  appreciation,  total  shareholder
               return, cash flow,  revenues,  item count, market share,  assets,
               assets under management, any profit-related ratio or calculation,
               or any growth, concentration-of-business or market-share ratio or
               calculation. Such Funding Performance Measures may be measured on
               an  absolute  basis  or  relative  to a group  of peer  companies
               selected  by  the  Committee,  relative  to  internal  goals,  or
               relative to levels attained in prior years.

          (d)  The Committee will establish Funding Performance Measures and the
               Minimum  Financial  Requirement  not later than 90 days after the
               beginning of the Performance Period.

4.2       Incentive Pool Calculation

          For each  Performance  Period,  the Committee shall establish a target
          incentive  pool based on the sum of Target  Awards and Blended  Target
          Awards for all Corporate  Participants.  The  Committee  shall further
          establish  Business  Unit target  incentive  pools based on the sum of
          Target  Awards  and  Blended  Target  Awards  for  all  Business  Unit
          Participants.  The target incentive  pools,  Target Awards and Blended
          Target Awards shall then be adjusted as follows:

          (a)  for  Corporate,  the target  incentive  pool,  Target  Awards and
               Blended  Target  Awards  shall be  adjusted  based  on  Corporate
               performance  results  relative to Corporate  Funding  Performance
               Measures established under Section 4.1; and
<PAGE>

          (b)  for Business Units, the target incentive pool,  Target Awards and
               Blended Target Awards shall be adjusted based on a combination of
               Corporate and relevant  Business Unit results relative to Funding
               Performance Measures established under Section 4.1.

          (c)  Target  Awards and Blended  Target  Awards  adjusted  pursuant to
               Section  4.2 (a) and (b) shall be  defined  as  "Modified  Target
               Awards."

          (d)  in no event may any incentive  pool be adjusted in excess of 200%
               of the target incentive pool.

          After such  adjustments,  the incentive pools shall be allocated among
          Corporate  and the  Business  Units in order  to  calculate  Incentive
          Awards to Participants.
<PAGE>

SECTION 5: INCENTIVE AWARDS

5.1       Calculation of Incentive Award

          (a)  The Participant's  Incentive Award for a Performance Period shall
               be based on (1) the amount of the incentive pool (if any) for the
               relevant   Corporate  or  Business  Unit   assignment,   (2)  the
               Participant's paid Salary during the Performance  Period, (3) the
               Participant's  Target  Award,  and  (4)  individual   performance
               measures.

               In the event that a  Participant  moves from one target  award to
               another or from another  company-sponsored  incentive plan to the
               Plan,  providing  that  the  Employee  meets  the  definition  of
               Participant  in the Plan,  the  Employee's  Target  Award will be
               blended as indicated in Section 2.19. The Participant's Incentive
               Award for the Performance Period shall be based on (1) the amount
               of the  incentive  pool (if any) for the  relevant  Corporate  or
               Business Unit assignment as of the last day as a Participant,  or
               the last day of employment for eligible terminated employees, (2)
               the  Participant's  total  paid  Salary  during  the  Performance
               Period,  (3) the  Participant's  Blended  Target  Award,  and (4)
               individual performance.

               As soon as practical after the end of a Performance  Period,  the
               Participant's  management shall assess individual  performance by
               measuring  results  attributable to performance goals established
               for the Performance  Period. Such performance goals may represent
               any combination and weighting of Business Unit,  operating group,
               division,  unit or individual  objectives.  Assessment of results
               shall occur through application of  Company-approved  performance
               evaluation  tools.

          (b)  In the event that the performance of Corporate or a Business Unit
               does not meet the threshold level of performance to result in the
               funding of an  incentive  pool under  Section  4.2, an  Incentive
               Award may  nonetheless be paid to a Participant in the discretion
               of the Committee or the  Corporation's  Chief Executive  Officer;
               provided,  however, that the Incentive Award shall not exceed 25%
               of the  Participant's  Target Award.  No Incentive  Awards may be
               granted under the Plan unless the Corporation's Minimum Financial
               Requirement has been satisfied.

          (c)  In no event may the Participant's  Incentive Award exceed 200% of
               his or her Modified  Target  Award,  as indicated in Section 4.2,
               without the approval of the Committee.
<PAGE>

5.2       Condition Precedent to Payment of Incentive Award

          To receive an Incentive  Award under Section 5.1,  except as stated in
          Sections 5.4 and 5.5, a written performance evaluation must have first
          been completed for the  Participant  and the Employee must have been a
          Participant  as of the last day of the  Performance  Period and remain
          continuously employed with the Company through the date of the payment
          of the Incentive Award.

5.3       Payment of Incentive Award

          Subject to the conditions set forth below,  Incentive  Awards shall be
          paid  to  Participants  in a lump  sum  as  soon  as  administratively
          feasible after the close of the Performance Period. Such payment shall
          consist of 100% cash; provided, however:

          (a)  The Committee may direct that selected  Participants  receive all
               or a  portion  of their  respective  Incentive  Awards as a grant
               under  the  Safeco  Long-Term  Incentive  Plan  of  1997  or  any
               successor plan thereto. The actual amount of such a grant will be
               determined  pursuant to any reasonable  methodology chosen by the
               Committee. The Committee, in accordance with the Safeco Long-Term
               Incentive  Plan of 1997,  shall have full and final  authority to
               establish the terms,  conditions and definitions that govern such
               grants.

          (b)  The  Committee   may  permit   deferral  of  some  or  all  of  a
               Participant's Incentive Award to the Safeco Deferred Compensation
               Plan for Executives in accordance with such plan's terms.

5.4       Termination of Employment

          If an Employee's  employment with the Company  terminates prior to the
          date of the  payment of the  Incentive  Award,  he or she shall not be
          entitled to an Incentive Award; provided, however:

          (a)  in the  event  the  Participant's  employment  with  the  Company
               terminates during the Performance Period, or following the end of
               the  Performance  Period but before the payment of the  Incentive
               Award is made, on account of Retirement, death or Disability, the
               Participant (or his or her estate) will be entitled to receive an
               Incentive Award based on (1) the Modified  Target Award,  and (2)
               his/her  Salary for the portion of the  Performance  Period(s) in
               which the  Participant  was actively  employed  with the Company.
               Individual performance measures are not a factor.

          (b)  In the event the  Participant's  employment  with the  Company is
               involuntarily  terminated  by the Company  due to a reduction  in
               force,  office closure or other  organizational  change,  and the
               Participant is entitled to severance under the Safeco  Employees'
               Severance  Plan and meets the  criteria for  participation  under
               that  plan,  the  Participant  will be  entitled  to  receive  an
               Incentive Award based on (1) the Modified  Target Award,  and (2)
               his/her  Salary for the portion of the  Performance  Period(s) in
               which the  Participant  was actively  employed  with the Company.

               Change in Control Severance Agreement is terminated without cause
               (as determined in the sole  discretion of the  Committee)  during
               the Performance Period by the Company (or an acquirer corporation
               or  affiliate  thereof)  following  a  Change  in  Control,   the

               the entire Performance Period,  calculated and paid in accordance
               with Section 6.1(c) of the Change in Control Agreement.

5.5       Partial Year Participation

          If an Employee who has been a Participant  in the Plan for any portion

          continuously employed with the Company through the date of the payment
          of the Incentive Award, such Employee shall be entitled to a pro-rated
          Incentive Award for such Performance  Period,  calculated  pursuant to

          and  its   rules  and   regulations,   and  all   actions   taken  and
          determinations  made by the Committee  pursuant to the Plan,  shall be
          conclusive  and  binding on all  parties  involved  or  affected.  The

<PAGE>

SECTION 7: AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

7.1       Amendment and Termination of the Plan

          The Committee shall each have the right to amend or terminate the Plan
          at any time and to discontinue (either temporarily or permanently) the
          distribution of Incentive Awards; provided, however, that no amendment
          or  termination  of  the  Plan  shall  adversely  affect  an  Eligible
          Employee's  right to payment of an Incentive Award that was earned and
          awarded prior to the date of the amendment or termination.
<PAGE>

SECTION 8: MISCELLANEOUS

8.1       Tax Withholding

          The Company shall withhold from Incentive Awards all amounts necessary
          to  satisfy  applicable  federal,  state  and  local  withholding  tax
          requirements.

8.2       Continuation of Employment

          The existence of the Plan does not create any employment contract, any
          guarantee of continued employment, or any right or assurance as to any
          minimum length of employment. An Eligible Employee's employment may be
          terminated  at any time,  with or  without  reason and with or without
          prior notice, at the option of the Company or the Eligible Employee.

8.3       Products and Underwriting

          The Company  reserves  the right to withdraw  existing  products  from
          distribution,  reassign  distribution of specific  products,  make new
          products  available,  adjust  production  credit,  revise its business
          plans and strategies and modify its  underwriting,  reserves,  claims,
          employment  and other  practices  and  policies  without the  Eligible
          Employee's consent and without adjusting the performance measures.

8.4       No Trust or Fund

          The  Plan is  intended  to  constitute  an  "unfunded"  plan.  Nothing
          contained  herein shall require the Company to segregate any monies or
          other  property,  or to create any trusts,  and no  Eligible  Employee
          shall  have  any  rights  that are  greater  than  those of a  general
          unsecured creditor of the Company.

8.5       Governing Law; Severability

          The Plan  shall be  governed  by the laws of the State of  Washington,
          without regard to its choice of law or conflict of law provisions. The
          federal  and  state  courts in King  County,  Washington,  shall  have
          exclusive  jurisdiction and venue to resolve issues that may arise out
          of or relate to the Plan.  If any  provision of the Plan is held to be
          invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall in
          no way  affect  the  validity  or  enforceability  of any  other  Plan
          provision.

<PAGE>

8.6       Spendthrift Clause

          Except as may be  otherwise  provided by law,  no benefit,  payment or
          distribution  under  the Plan,  or right to  receive  such a  benefit,
          payment or  distribution,  shall be subject either to the claim of any
          creditor of an Eligible Employee or to attachment,  garnishment, levy,
          execution or other legal or equitable  process by any creditor of such
          person.  No  Eligible  Employee  shall  have any  right  to  alienate,
          commute,  anticipate  or assign  (either in law or equity)  all or any
          portion of any benefit, payment or distribution under the Plan.

8.7       Entire Plan

          The Plan  contains the entire  understanding  and  undertaking  of the
          Company  with  respect  to the  provision  of an  incentive  plan  for
          Eligible  Employees  and, as to that subject,  supersedes  any and all
          prior and contemporaneous  undertakings,  agreements,  understandings,
          practices,  policies,  inducements or conditions,  whether  express or
          implied, oral or written, except as herein contained.

8.8       Effective Date and Term

          The  effective  date of the Plan is January  1,  2002.  The Plan shall
          continue from year to year until terminated in accordance with Section

         Section 3.03 Money for Payments To Be Held in Trust; Paying Agent. (a)
As provided in Section 3.01, all payments of amounts due and payable with
respect to any Notes that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the Payment
Account pursuant to Section 3.05 shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the
Indenture Trustee or by the Paying Agent, based on information provided by the
Securities Administrator to the Indenture Trustee or Paying Agent, as
applicable, and no amounts so withdrawn from the Payment Account for payments of
Notes shall be paid over to the Issuer except as provided in this Section 3.03.
The Securities Administrator shall calculate the amount to be distributed to
each Class and, based on such amounts, the Securities Administrator shall
determine the amount to be distributed to each Noteholder. All of the Securities
Administrator's calculations of payments shall be based solely on information
provided to the Securities Administrator by the Master Servicer pursuant to
Section 3.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Neither the Securities
Administrator nor the Indenture Trustee shall be required to confirm, verify or
recompute any such information but shall be entitled to rely conclusively on
such information. The Issuer hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as its Paying
Agent.

         The Issuer will cause each Paying Agent other than the Indenture
Trustee to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an instrument in which
such Paying Agent shall agree with the Indenture Trustee (and if the Indenture
Trustee acts as Paying Agent it hereby so agrees), subject to the provisions of
this Section 3.03, that such Paying Agent will:

                  (i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due
         with respect to the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Persons
         entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or
         otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such
         Persons as herein provided;

                                       6

<PAGE>

                  (ii) give the Indenture Trustee notice of any default by the
         Issuer of which it has actual knowledge in the making of any payment
         required to be made with respect to the Notes;

                  (iii) at any time during the continuance of any such default,
         upon the written request of the Indenture Trustee, forthwith pay to the
         Indenture Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent;

                  (iv) immediately resign as Paying Agent and forthwith pay to
         the Indenture Trustee all sums held by it in trust for the payment of
         Notes if at any time it ceases to meet the standards required to be met
         by a Paying Agent at the time of its appointment;

                  (v) comply with all requirements of the Code with respect to
         the withholding from any payments made by it on any Notes of any
         applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any
         applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith; and

                  (vi) not commence a bankruptcy proceeding against the Issuer
         in connection with this Indenture.

         The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer
Request direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held in
trust by such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Indenture Trustee upon
the same trusts as those upon which the sums were held by such Paying Agent; and
upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Indenture Trustee, such Paying
Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

         Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any money
held by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust for the payment of
any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for one year
after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust
and be paid to the Issuer; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an
unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof (but
only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer), and all liability of
the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money
shall thereupon cease; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Indenture Trustee or such
Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall at the
expense and direction of the Issuer cause to be published once, in an Authorized
Newspaper published in the English language, notice that such money remains
unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein which shall not be less than
30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money
then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. The Indenture Trustee may also
adopt and employ, at the expense and direction of the Issuer, any other
reasonable means of notification of such repayment (including, but not limited
to, mailing notice of such repayment to Holders whose Notes have been called but
have not been surrendered for redemption or whose right to or interest in monies
due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of the
Indenture Trustee or of any Paying Agent, at the last address of record for each
such Holder).

existence, rights and franchises as a statutory trust under the laws of the
State of Delaware (unless it becomes, or any successor Issuer hereunder is or
becomes, organized under the laws of any other state or of the United States of
America, in which case the Issuer will keep in full effect its existence, rights

on any obligation or capability of so doing or otherwise), endorse or otherwise
become contingently liable, directly or indirectly, in connection with the
obligations, stocks or dividends of, or own, purchase, repurchase or acquire (or

         Section 3.21 Capital Expenditures. The Issuer shall not make any
expenditure (by long-term or operating lease or otherwise) for capital assets
(either realty or personalty).

         Section 3.22 Determination of Note Interest Rate. On each Interest
Determination Date the Securities Administrator shall determine One-Month LIBOR
and the related Note Interest Rate for each Class of Notes for the following
Accrual Period. The establishment of One-Month LIBOR on each Interest
Determination Date by the Securities Administrator and the Securities
Administrator's calculation of the rate of interest applicable to each Class of
Notes for the related Accrual Period shall (in the absence of manifest error) be
final and binding.

         Section 3.23 Restricted Payments. The Issuer shall not, directly or
indirectly, (i) pay any dividend or make any distribution (by reduction of
capital or otherwise), whether in cash, property, securities or a combination
thereof, to the Owner Trustee or any owner of a beneficial interest in the
Issuer or otherwise with respect to any ownership or equity interest or security
in or of the Issuer, (ii) redeem, purchase, retire or otherwise acquire for
value any such ownership or equity interest or security or (iii) set aside or
otherwise segregate any amounts for any such purpose; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
the Issuer may make, or cause to be made, (x) distributions and

                                       16

<PAGE>

payments to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, Noteholders and the
Certificateholders as contemplated by, and to the extent funds are available for
such purpose under this Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the
Trust Agreement and (y) payments to the Master Servicer, the Servicer and the
Special Servicer pursuant to the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The
Issuer will not, directly or indirectly, make payments to or distributions from
the Master Servicer Collection Account or the Payment Account except in
accordance with this Indenture and the Basic Documents.

         Section 3.24 Notice of Events of Default. The Issuer shall give the
Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Rating Agencies prompt
written notice of each Event of Default hereunder and under the Trust Agreement.

         Section 3.25 Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the
Indenture Trustee, the Issuer will execute and deliver such further instruments
and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out
more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

         Section 3.26 Certain Representations Regarding the Trust Estate.

         (a) With respect to that portion of the Collateral described in clauses
(a) through (h) of the definition of Trust Estate, the Issuer represents to the
Indenture Trustee that:

                  (i) This Indenture creates a valid and continuing security
         interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Collateral in favor
         of the Indenture Trustee, which security interest is prior to all other
         liens, and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and
         purchasers from the Issuer.

                  (ii) In each case, within the meaning of the applicable UCC:
         (A) the Collateral described in clauses (a) through (d) constitutes
         "deposit accounts" or "instruments," as applicable; (B) the Collateral
         described in clause (e) constitutes "real property;"(C) the Collateral
         described in clause (f) constitutes "accounts;" and (D) the Collateral
         described in clause (h) constitutes "general intangibles."

                  (iii) The Issuer owns and has good and marketable title to the
         Collateral, free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance of any
         Person.

                  (iv) The Issuer has taken all steps necessary to cause the
         Indenture Trustee to become the account holder of the Collateral.

                  (v) Other than the security interest granted to the Indenture
         Trustee pursuant to this Indenture, the Issuer has not pledged,
         assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed
         any of the Collateral.

                  (vi) The Collateral is not in the name of any Person other
         than the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer has not consented
         to the bank maintaining the Collateral to comply with instructions of
         any Person other than the Indenture Trustee.

                                       17

<PAGE>

                  (vii) With respect to any Collateral in which a security
         interest may be perfected by filing, the Issuer has not authorized the
         filing of, and is not aware of any financing statements against, the
         Issuer, that include a description of collateral covering such
         Collateral, other than any financing statement relating to the security
         interest granted to the Indenture Trustee hereunder or that has been
         terminated. The Issuer is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings
         against the Issuer.

                  (viii) The Issuer has caused or will have caused, within ten
         days, the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper
         filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in
         order to perfect the security interest in all Collateral granted to the
         Indenture Trustee hereunder in which a security interest may be
         perfected by filing. Any financing statement that is filed in
         connection with this Section 3.26 shall contain a statement that a
         purchase or security interest in any collateral described therein will
         violate the rights of the secured party named in such financing
         statement.

                  (ix) The foregoing representations may not be waived and shall
         survive the issuance of the Notes.

         Section 3.27 Allocation of Realized Losses. (a) Prior to each Payment
Date, the Master Servicer shall determine, based solely on information provided
to it by the Servicer, the total amount of Realized Losses that occurred during
the related Prepayment Period.

         (b) Any realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans will be allocated or
covered on any payment date as follows FIRST, to the Net Monthly Excess
Cashflow, by an increase in the Overcollateralization Increase Amount for that
Payment Date as provided in Section 3.05 hereof; SECOND, in reduction of the
Overcollateralized Amount, until reduced to zero (meaning, no losses will be
allocated to the Class A, Class M or Class B Notes until the aggregate Note
Principal Balance of the Notes equals the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance
of the Mortgage Loans); and THIRD, if such Realized Loss occurs, to the Class
B-1, Class M-2, Class M-1, Class A-2 and Class A-1 Notes, in that order, in
reduction of the Note Principal Balances thereof, until the Note Principal
Balance thereof have been reduced to zero. All Realized Losses allocated to a
Class of Notes will be allocated in proportion to the Percentage Interests
evidenced thereby.

         (c) In addition, in the event that the Master Servicer receives any
Subsequent Recoveries from the Servicer, the Master Servicer shall deposit such
funds into the Master Servicer Collection Account in accordance with Section
4.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. If, after taking into account such
Subsequent Recoveries, the amount of a Realized Loss is reduced, the amount of
such Subsequent Recoveries will be applied to increase the Note Principal
Balance of the Class of Class A, Class M or Class B Notes with the highest
payment priority to which Realized Losses have been allocated and not previously
reimbursed through the payment of an Allocated Realized Loss Amount pursuant to
Sections 3.05(d)(iii), but not by more than the amount of Realized Losses
previously allocated to that Class of Class A, Class M or Class B Notes pursuant
to this Section 3.27. The amount of any remaining Subsequent Recoveries will be
applied to sequentially increase the Note Principal Balance of the related Class
of Class A, Class M or the Class B Notes, beginning with the Class of Notes with
the next highest payment priority, up to the amount of such Realized Losses
previously allocated (but

                                       18

<PAGE>

only to the extent not previously reimbursed through the payment of an Allocated
Realized Loss Amount pursuant to Sections 3.05(d)(iii) to such Class of Class A,
Class M or the Class B Notes pursuant to this Section 3.27. Holders of such
Notes will not be entitled to any payment in respect of current interest on the
amount of such increases for any Accrual Period preceding the Payment Date on
which such increase occurs. Any such increases shall be applied to the Note
Principal Balance of each Class of Notes in accordance with its respective
Percentage Interest.

         Section 3.28 Replacement Corridor Contracts. In the event of an early
termination by a Corridor Counterparty with respect to a Corridor Contract, the
Issuer, at its expense, may, but shall not be required to, direct the Indenture
Trustee to substitute a new corridor contract for the existing Corridor
Contracts or any other form of similar coverage for basis risk shortfalls;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the timing and mechanism for receiving payments under
such new corridor contracts shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indenture
Trustee. It shall be a condition to substitution of any new corridor contract
that there be delivered to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the
effect that such substitution would not (a) result in a "substantial
modification" of the Notes as indebtedness for federal income tax purposes, or
(b) if 100% of the Certificates are not owned by HMB Acceptance Corp., cause the
Trust to be subject to an entity level tax for federal income tax purposes.

                                   ARTICLE IV

               The Notes; Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture

         Section 4.01 The Notes. Each Class of Notes shall be registered in the
name of a nominee designated by the Depository. Beneficial Owners will hold
interests in the Notes through the book-entry facilities of the Depository in
minimum initial Note Principal Balances of $25,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof.

         The Indenture Trustee may for all purposes (including the making of
payments due on the Notes) deal with the Depository as the authorized
representative of the Beneficial Owners with respect to the Notes for the
purposes of exercising the rights of Holders of the Notes hereunder. Except as
provided in the next succeeding paragraph of this Section 4.01, the rights of
Beneficial Owners with respect to the Notes shall be limited to those
established by law and agreements between such Beneficial Owners and the
Depository and Depository Participants. Except as provided in Section 4.08
hereof, Beneficial Owners shall not be entitled to definitive certificates for
the Notes as to which they are the Beneficial Owners. Requests and directions
from, and votes of, the Depository as Holder of the Notes shall not be deemed
inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Beneficial Owners. The
Indenture Trustee may establish a reasonable record date in connection with
solicitations of consents from or voting by Noteholders and give notice to the
Depository of such record date. Without the consent of the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee, no Note may be transferred by the Depository except to a
successor Depository that agrees to hold such Note for the account of the
Beneficial Owners.

         In the event the Depository Trust Company resigns or is removed as
Depository, the Depositor may appoint a successor Depository. If no successor
Depository has been appointed within 30 days of the effective date of the
Depository's resignation or removal, each Beneficial Owner shall be entitled to
certificates representing the Notes it beneficially owns in the manner
prescribed in Section 4.08.

         The Notes shall, on original issue, be executed on behalf of the Issuer
by the Owner Trustee, not in its individual capacity but solely as Owner
Trustee, authenticated by the Indenture Trustee and delivered by the Indenture
Trustee to or upon the order of the Issuer.

         Section 4.02 Registration of and Limitations on Transfer and Exchange
of Notes; Appointment of Note Registrar and Certificate Registrar. The Issuer
shall cause to be kept at the office of the Note Registrar (which shall be the
office specified in Section 3.02) a Note Register in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Note Registrar shall provide for
the registration of Notes and of transfers and exchanges of Notes as herein
provided.

         Subject to the restrictions and limitations set forth below, upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office specified in
Section 3.02, the Issuer shall execute and the Note Registrar shall authenticate
and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or
more new Notes in authorized initial Note Principal Balances evidencing the same
Class and aggregate Percentage Interests.

                                       20

<PAGE>

         Subject to the foregoing, at the option of the Noteholders, Notes may
be exchanged for other Notes of like tenor and in authorized initial Note
Principal Balances evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interests
upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the office specified in Section
3.02. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall
execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the Notes which
the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Each Note presented
or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall (if so required by
the Note Registrar) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Note Registrar
duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing
with such signature guaranteed by a commercial bank or trust company located or
having a correspondent located in the city of New York. Notes delivered upon any
such transfer or exchange will evidence the same obligations, and will be
entitled to the same rights and privileges, as the Notes surrendered.

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

         The Issuer hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as (i) Certificate
Registrar to keep at the office of its designated agent as specified in Section
3.02, a Certificate Register pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Trust Agreement in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the
Certificate Registrar shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of
transfers and exchanges thereof pursuant to Section 3.05 of the Trust Agreement
and (ii) Note Registrar under this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee hereby
accepts such appointments.

         Section 4.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. If (i) any
mutilated Note is surrendered to the Indenture Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee
receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Note, and (ii) there is delivered to the Indenture Trustee such security or
indemnity as may be required by it to hold the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee
harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the Note Registrar or
the Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser,
and provided that the requirements of Section 8-405 of the UCC are met, the
Issuer shall execute, and upon its request the Indenture Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if
any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have
become or within seven days shall be due and payable, instead of issuing a
replacement Note, the Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so
due or payable without surrender thereof. If, after the delivery of such
replacement Note or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant to the
proviso to the preceding sentence, a bona fide purchaser of the original Note in
lieu of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such
original Note, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover
such replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered
or any Person taking such replacement Note from such Person to whom such
replacement Note was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a bona
fide purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity
provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by
the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection therewith.

                                       21

<PAGE>

         Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 4.03, the
Issuer may require the payment by the Holder of such Note of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation
thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of
the Indenture Trustee) connected therewith.

         Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 4.03 in
replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by
anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

         The provisions of this Section 4.03 are exclusive and shall preclude
(to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the
replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

         Section 4.04 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment for
registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the
Paying Agent and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may treat the
Person in whose name any Note is registered (as of the day of determination) as
the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and
interest, if any, on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or
not such Note be overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the
Paying Agent nor any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

         Section 4.05 Cancellation. All Notes surrendered for payment,
registration of transfer, exchange or redemption shall, if surrendered to any
Person other than the Indenture Trustee, be delivered to the Indenture Trustee
and shall be promptly cancelled by the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer may at any
time deliver to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously
authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any
manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the
Indenture Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for
any Notes cancelled as provided in this Section 4.05, except as expressly
permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes may be held or disposed of by
the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its standard retention or disposal
policy as in effect at the time unless the Issuer shall direct by an Issuer
Request that they be destroyed or returned to it; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such
Issuer Request is timely and the Notes have not been previously disposed of by
the Indenture Trustee.

         Section 4.06 Book-Entry Notes. The Notes, upon original issuance, will
be issued in the form of typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes, to
be delivered to The Depository Trust Company, the initial Depository, by, or on
behalf of, the Issuer. The Notes shall initially be registered on the Note
Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the initial Depository, and
no Beneficial Owner will receive a Definitive Note representing such Beneficial
Owner's interest in such Note, except as provided in Section 4.08. With respect
to such Notes, unless and until definitive, fully registered Notes (the
"Definitive Notes") have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section
4.08:

                  (i) the provisions of this Section 4.06 shall be in full force
         and effect;

                                       22

<PAGE>

                  (ii) the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent and the Indenture
         Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the Depository for all purposes
         of this Indenture (including the payment of principal of and interest
         on the Notes and the giving of instructions or directions hereunder) as
         the sole holder of the Notes, and shall have no obligation to the
         Beneficial Owners of the Notes;

                  (iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 4.06
         conflict with any other provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of
         this Section 4.06 shall control;

                  (iv) the rights of Beneficial Owners shall be exercised only
         through the Depository and shall be limited to those established by law
         and agreements between such Owners of Notes and the Depository and/or
         the Depository Participants. Unless and until Definitive Notes are
         issued pursuant to Section 4.08, the initial Depository will make
         book-entry transfers among the Depository Participants and receive and
         transmit payments of principal of and interest on the Notes to such
         Depository Participants; and

                  (v) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be
         taken based upon instructions or directions of Holders of Notes
         evidencing a specified percentage of the Note Principal Balances of the
         Notes, the Depository shall be deemed to represent such percentage with
         respect to the Notes only to the extent that it has received
         instructions to such effect from Beneficial Owners and/or Depository
         Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required
         percentage of the beneficial interest in the Notes and has delivered
         such instructions to the Indenture Trustee.

         Section 4.07 Notices to Depository. Whenever a notice or other
communication to the Note Holders is required under this Indenture, unless and
until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to
Section 4.08, the Indenture Trustee shall give all such notices and
communications specified herein to be given to Holders of the Notes to the
Depository, and shall have no obligation to the Beneficial Owners.

         Section 4.08 Definitive Notes. If (i) the Depositor advises the
Indenture Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to
properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Book-Entry Notes and
the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor within 30 days or (ii)
the Depositor, at its option (with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld) elects to terminate the book-entry
system through the Depository, then the Indenture Trustee shall request that the
Depository notify all Beneficial Owners of the occurrence of any such event and
of the availability of Definitive Notes to Beneficial Owners requesting the
same. Upon surrender to the Indenture Trustee of the typewritten Notes
representing the Book-Entry Notes by the Depository, accompanied by registration
instructions, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall
authenticate the Definitive Notes in accordance with the instructions of the
Depository. None of the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee
shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may
conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions.
Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes, the Indenture Trustee shall recognize the
Holders of the Definitive Notes as Noteholders.

                                       23

<PAGE>

         In addition, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
each Note Owner materially adversely affected thereby may at its option request
a Definitive Note evidencing such Noteholder's interest in the related Class of
Notes. In order to make such request, such Noteholder shall, subject to the
rules and procedures of the Depository, provide the Depository or the related
Depository Participant with directions for the Indenture Trustee to exchange or
cause the exchange of the Noteholder's interest in such Class of Notes for an
equivalent interest in fully registered definitive form. Upon receipt by the
Indenture Trustee of instructions from the Depository directing the Indenture
Trustee to effect such exchange (such instructions to contain information
regarding the Class of Notes and the Note Principal Balance being exchanged, the
Depository Participant account to be debited with the decrease, the registered
holder of and delivery instructions for the Definitive Note, and any other
information reasonably required by the Indenture Trustee), (i) the Indenture
Trustee shall instruct the Depository to reduce the related Depository
Participant's account by the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Definitive
Note, (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in
accordance with the registration and delivery instructions provided by the
Depository, a Definitive Note evidencing such Noteholder's interest in such
Class of Notes and (iii) the Indenture Trustee shall execute and authenticate a
new Book-Entry Note reflecting the reduction in the Note Principal Balance of
such Class of Notes by the amount of the Definitive Notes.

         Section 4.09 Tax Treatment. The Issuer has entered into this Indenture,
and the Notes will be issued with the intention that, for federal, state and
local income, single business and franchise tax purposes, the Notes will qualify
as indebtedness. The Issuer and the Securities Administrator (in accordance with
Section 6.06 hereof), by entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder, by
its acceptance of its Note (and each Beneficial Owner by its acceptance of an
interest in the applicable Book-Entry Note), agree to treat the Notes for
federal, state and local income, single business and franchise tax purposes as
indebtedness.

         Section 4.10 Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture
shall cease to be of further effect with respect to the Notes except as to (i)
rights of registration of transfer and exchange, (ii) substitution of mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Notes, (iii) rights of Noteholders to receive payments
of principal thereof and interest thereon, (iv) Sections 3.03, 3.04, 3.06, 3.09,
3.17, 3.19 and 3.20, (v) the rights, obligations (to the extent applicable to
the provisions of the Indenture remaining in effect) and immunities of the
Indenture Trustee and Securities Administrator hereunder (including the rights
of the Indenture Trustee and Securities Administrator under Section 6.07 and the
obligations of the Indenture Trustee under Section 4.11), (vi) the rights of
Noteholders as beneficiaries hereof with respect to the property so deposited
with the Indenture Trustee payable to all or any of them, and the Indenture
Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with
respect to the Notes and shall release and deliver, or cause the Custodian to
deliver, the Collateral to or upon the order of the Issuer, when

                  (A) either

                  (1) all Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (other
         than (i) Notes that have been destroyed, lost or stolen and that have
         been replaced or paid as provided in Section 4.03 hereof and (ii) Notes
         for whose payment money has theretofore been

                                       24

<PAGE>

         deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and
         thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from such trust, as
         provided in Section 3.03) have been delivered to the Indenture Trustee
         for cancellation; or

                  (2) all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Indenture
         Trustee for cancellation

                           a. have become due and payable,

         Opinion of Counsel relates to a deposit made in connection with Section
         4.10(A)(2)b. above, such opinion shall further be to the effect that

         Section 4.13 Repayment of Monies Held by Paying Agent. In connection
with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Notes,
all monies then held by any Person other than the Indenture Trustee under the
provisions of this Indenture with respect to such Notes shall, upon demand of
the Issuer, be paid to the Indenture Trustee to be held and applied according to
Section 3.05 and thereupon such Person shall be released from all further
liability with respect to such monies.

         Section 4.14 Temporary Notes. Pending the preparation of any Definitive
Notes, the Issuer may execute and upon its written direction, the Indenture
Trustee may authenticate and make available for delivery, temporary Notes that
are printed, lithographed, typewritten, photocopied or otherwise produced, in
any denomination, substantially of the tenor of the Definitive Notes in lieu of
which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions,
substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Notes may
determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

         If temporary Notes are issued, the Issuer will cause Definitive Notes
to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of the
Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes
upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the Corporate Trust Office, without
charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more
temporary Notes, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall
authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange therefor, Definitive
Notes of authorized denominations and of like tenor, class and aggregate
principal amount. Until so exchanged, such temporary Notes shall in all respects
be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Notes.

         Section 4.15 Representation Regarding ERISA. By acquiring a Note or
interest therein, each Holder of such Note or Beneficial Owner of any such
interest will be deemed to represent that either (1) it is not acquiring the
Note with Plan Assets or (2) (A) the acquisition, holding and transfer of such
Note will not give rise to a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406
of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and (B) the Notes are rated investment
grade or better and such person believes that the Notes are properly treated as
indebtedness without substantial equity features for purposes of the Department
of Labor regulation 29 C.F.R. ss. 2510.3-101, and agrees to so treat the Notes.
Alternatively, regardless of the rating of the Notes, such person may provide
the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee with an Opinion of Counsel, which
Opinion of Counsel will not be at the expense of the Issuer, the Depositor, the
Seller, any Underwriter, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the
Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Servicer or the Special
Servicer which opines that the acquisition, holding and transfer of such Note or
interest therein is permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or
result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the
Code and will not subject the Issuer, the Seller, the Depositor, any
Underwriter, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities
Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Servicer or the Special Servicer to any
obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Indenture and the other Basic
Documents.

                              Default and Remedies

         Section 5.01 Events of Default. The Issuer shall deliver to the
Indenture Trustee, within five days after learning of the occurrence of an Event
of Default, written notice in the form of an Officer's Certificate of any event
which with the giving of notice and the lapse of time would become an Event of
Default under clause (iii), (iv) or (v) of the definition of "Event of Default",
its status and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect
thereto. The Indenture Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any
Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge thereof or
unless written notice of such Event of Default is received by a Responsible
Officer and such notice references the Notes, the Trust Estate or this
Indenture.

         Section 5.02 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an
Event of Default should occur and be continuing, then and in every such case the
Indenture Trustee at the written direction of the Holders of Notes representing
not less than a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Notes
may declare the Notes to be immediately due and payable, by a notice in writing
to the Issuer (and to the Indenture Trustee if such notice is given by
Noteholders), and upon any such declaration the unpaid Note Principal Balance of
the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of
acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable.

         At any time after such declaration of acceleration of maturity with
respect to an Event of Default has been made and before a judgment or decree for
payment of the money due has been obtained by the Indenture Trustee as
hereinafter in this Article V provided, Holders of the Notes representing not
less than a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Notes, by
written notice to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, may, subject to Section
5.12, waive the related Event of Default and rescind and annul such declaration
and its consequences if

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 5.03 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by
Indenture Trustee.

         (a) The Issuer covenants that if (i) default is made in the payment of
any interest on any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and such default
continues for a period of five days, or (ii) default is made in the payment of
the principal of or any installment of the principal of any Note when the same
becomes due and payable, the Issuer shall, upon demand of the Indenture Trustee,
acting at the direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate Note
Principal Balances of the Notes, pay to the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit
of the Holders of Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on the Notes for
principal and interest, with interest at the applicable Note Interest Rate upon
the overdue principal, and in addition thereto such further amount as shall be
sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture
Trustee and its agents and counsel.

         (b) In case the Issuer shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon
such demand, the Indenture Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express
trust, subject to the provisions of Section 10.16 hereof may institute a
Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute
such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against
the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes and collect in the manner provided by
law out of the property of the Issuer or other obligor the Notes, wherever
situated, the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable.

         (c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture
Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 10.16 hereof may, as more
particularly provided in Section 5.04 hereof, in its discretion, proceed to
protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders, by such
appropriate Proceedings, as directed in writing by Holders of a majority of the
aggregate Note Principal Balances of the Notes, to protect and enforce any such
rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in
this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to
enforce any other proper remedy or legal or equitable right vested in the
Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

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

         of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and
         to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable
         in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any
         claim for reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each
         predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys
         and counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities
         incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each
         predecessor Indenture Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad
         faith) and of the Noteholders allowed in such Proceedings;

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

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

                  (iv) to file such proofs of claim and other papers or
         documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims
         of the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes allowed in any
         judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, its creditors and its
         property;

any such Proceeding is hereby authorized by each of such Noteholders to make
payments to the Indenture Trustee and, in the event that the Indenture Trustee
shall consent to the making of payments directly to such Noteholders, to pay to
the Indenture Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable
compensation to the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and
their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and
liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each
predecessor Indenture Trustee.

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

         (f) All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture,
or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the
possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other
Proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or proceedings instituted by
the Indenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express
trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses,
disbursements and compensation of the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor
Indenture Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the
ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes, subject to Section 5.05 hereof.

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

         Section 5.04 Remedies; Priorities. (a) If an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing and if an acceleration has been declared and not
rescinded pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof, the Indenture Trustee subject to the
provisions of Section 10.16 hereof may, and shall, at the written direction of
the Holders of a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balances of the Notes
(subject to Section 6.02(k)) do one or more of the following (subject to Section
5.05 hereof):

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

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

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

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

                  (v) PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Indenture Trustee may not sell
         or otherwise liquidate the Trust Estate following an Event of Default,
         unless (A) the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of the Holders of
         100% of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Notes, (B) the
         proceeds of such sale or liquidation distributable to the Holders of
         the Notes are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then due and
         unpaid upon such Notes for principal and interest or (C) the Indenture
         Trustee determines that the Mortgage Loans will not continue to provide
         sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the
         applicable Notes as they would have become due if the Notes had not
         been declared due and payable, and the Indenture Trustee obtains the
         consent of Holders of 662/3% of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of
         the Notes. In determining such sufficiency or insufficiency with
         respect to clause (B) and (C), the Indenture Trustee may, but need not,
         obtain and rely upon an opinion (obtained at the expense of the Trust)
         of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national
         reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the
         sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose. Notwithstanding the
         foregoing, so long as an "Event of Default" under the HomeBanc
         Servicing Agreement has not occurred, any Sale of the Trust Estate
         shall be made subject to the continued servicing of the Mortgage Loans
         by the Servicer as provided in the HomeBanc Servicing Agreement.

         Certificate Paying Agent on behalf of the Issuer or to any other person
         legally entitled thereto.

payment to Noteholders pursuant to this Section 5.04. At least 15 days before
such record date, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder a notice

         Section 5.05 Optional Preservation of the Trust Estate. If the Notes
have been declared to be due and payable under Section 5.02 following an Event
of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and
annulled, the Indenture Trustee may elect to take and maintain possession of the
Trust Estate. It is the desire of the parties hereto and the Noteholders that
there be at all times sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and
interest on the Notes and other obligations of the Issuer and, the Indenture
Trustee shall take such desire into account when determining whether or not to
take and maintain possession of the Trust Estate. In determining whether to take
and maintain possession of the Trust Estate, the Indenture Trustee may, but need
not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment

proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose.

         Section 5.06 Limitation of Suits. No Holder of any Note shall have any
right to institute any Proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this

                  (ii) the Holders of not less than 25% of the aggregate Note
         Principal Balances of the Notes have made a written request to the
         Indenture Trustee to institute such Proceeding in respect of such Event
         of Default in its own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder;

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

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

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

any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision

Indenture Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests and
indemnity from two or more groups of Holders of Notes, each representing less
than a majority of the Note Principal Balances of the Notes, the Indenture
Trustee shall take such action as requested by the Holders representing the
highest amount (in the aggregate) of Note Principal Balances notwithstanding any
other provisions of this Indenture.

         Section 5.07 Unconditional Rights of Noteholders To Receive Principal
and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, the Holder
of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to
receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on such Note on or

         Section 5.08 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Indenture
Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or
remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason or has been determined adversely to the Indenture
Trustee or to such Noteholder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall, subject to any determination in
such Proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former
positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been
instituted.

         Section 5.09 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders is
intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and
remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to
every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law
or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy
hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

         Section 5.10 Delay or Omission Not a Waiver. No delay or omission of
the Indenture Trustee or any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy
accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or
constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.
Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Indenture
Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often
as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Noteholders, as
the case may be.

         Section 5.11 Control By Noteholders. The Holders of a majority of the
aggregate Note Principal Balances of Notes shall have the right to direct the
time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to
the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes or exercising any trust or power
conferred on the Indenture Trustee (subject to the Indenture Trustee's right to
receive indemnity, as provided herein); provided that:

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

                  (ii) any direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or
         liquidate the Trust Estate shall be by Holders of Notes representing
         not less than 100% of the Note Principal Balances of the Notes; and

                  (iii) the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed
         proper by the Indenture Trustee that is not inconsistent with such
         direction of the Holders of Notes representing a majority of the Note
         Principal Balances of the Notes.

                  (iv) Notwithstanding the rights of Noteholders set forth in
         this Section 5.11 the Indenture Trustee need not take any action that
         it deems unduly prejudicial to any Noteholder or that it determines
         might subject it to liability.

         Section 5.12 Waiver of Past Defaults. Prior to the declaration of the
acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.02 hereof,
the Holders of Notes representing not

                                       33

<PAGE>

less than a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Notes may
waive any past Event of Default and its consequences except an Event of Default
(a) with respect to payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes or
(b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which cannot be modified or
amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note. In the case of any such
waiver, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be
restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively, but no
such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair
any right consequent thereto.

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

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

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

         Section 5.15 Sale of Trust Estate. (a) The power to effect any sale or
other disposition (a "Sale") of any portion of the Trust Estate pursuant to
Section 5.04 hereof is expressly subject to the provisions of Section 5.05
hereof and this Section 5.15. The power to effect any such Sale shall not be
exhausted by any one or more Sales as to any portion of the Trust Estate
remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until the entire Trust Estate
shall have been sold or all amounts payable on the Notes and under this
Indenture shall have been paid. The Indenture Trustee may from time to time
postpone any public Sale by public announcement made at the time and place of
such Sale. The Indenture Trustee hereby expressly waives its right to any amount
fixed by law as compensation for any Sale.

                                       34

<PAGE>

         (b) The Indenture Trustee shall not in any private Sale sell the Trust
Estate, or any portion thereof, unless

                  (1) the Holders of all Notes consent to or direct the
         Indenture Trustee to make, such Sale, or

                  (2) the proceeds of such Sale would be not less than the
         entire amount which would be payable to the Noteholders under the
         Notes, in full payment thereof in accordance with Section 5.02 hereof,
         on the Payment Date next succeeding the date of such Sale, or

                  (3) the Indenture Trustee determines that the conditions for
         retention of the Trust Estate set forth in Section 5.05 hereof cannot
         be satisfied (in making any such determination, the Indenture Trustee
         may rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking firm
         obtained and delivered as provided in Section 5.05 hereof) and the
         Holders of Notes representing at least 66-2/3% of the Note Principal
         Balances of the Notes consent to such Sale.

The purchase by the Indenture Trustee of all or any portion of the Trust Estate
at a private Sale shall not be deemed a Sale or other disposition thereof for
purposes of this Section 5.15(b).

         (c) Unless the Holders representing at least 66-2/3% of the Note
Principal Balances of the Notes have otherwise consented or directed the
Indenture Trustee, at any public Sale of all or any portion of the Trust Estate
at which a minimum bid equal to or greater than the amount described in
paragraph (2) of subsection (b) of this Section 5.15 has not been established by
the Indenture Trustee and no Person bids an amount equal to or greater than such
amount, the Indenture Trustee, acting in its capacity as Indenture Trustee on
behalf of the Noteholders, shall bid an amount (which shall include the
Indenture Trustee's right, in its capacity as Indenture Trustee, to credit bid)
at least $1.00 more than the highest other bid in order to preserve the Trust
Estate on behalf of the Noteholders.

         (d) In connection with a Sale of all or any portion of the Trust
Estate,

                  (1) any Holder or Holders of Notes may bid for and purchase
         the property offered for sale, and upon compliance with the terms of
         sale may hold, retain and possess and dispose of such property, without
         further accountability, and may, in paying the purchase money therefor,
         deliver any Notes or claims for interest thereon in lieu of cash up to
         the amount which shall, upon distribution of the net proceeds of such
         sale, be payable thereon, and such Notes, in case the amounts so
         payable thereon shall be less than the amount due thereon, shall be
         returned to the Holders thereof after being appropriately stamped to
         show such partial payment;

                  (2) the Indenture Trustee, may bid for and acquire the
         property offered for Sale in connection with any Sale thereof, and,
         subject to any requirements of, and to the extent permitted by,
         applicable law in connection therewith, may purchase all or any portion
         of the Trust Estate in a private sale, and, in lieu of paying cash
         therefor, may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting the
         gross Sale price against the sum

                                       35

<PAGE>

         of (A) the amount which would be distributable to the Holders of the
         Notes and Holders of Certificates as a result of such sale on the
         Payment Date next succeeding the date of such Sale and (B) the expenses
         of the Sale and of any Proceedings in connection therewith which are
         reimbursable to it, without being required to produce the Notes in
         order to complete any such Sale or in order for the net Sale price to
         be credited against such Notes, and any property so acquired by the
         Indenture Trustee shall be held and dealt with by it in accordance with
         the provisions of this Indenture;

                  (3) the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver an
         appropriate instrument of conveyance, prepared by the Issuer and
         satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, transferring its interest in any
         portion of the Trust Estate in connection with a Sale thereof;

                  (4) the Indenture Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the
         agent and attorney-in-fact of the Issuer to transfer and convey its
         interest in any portion of the Trust Estate in connection with a Sale
         thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect such Sale; and

                  (5) no purchaser or transferee at such a Sale shall be bound
         to ascertain the Indenture Trustee's authority, inquire into the
         satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the application of
         any monies.

         Section 5.16 Action on Notes. The Indenture Trustee's right to seek and
recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by
the seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect
to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies
of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of
any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any
execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Trust Estate or upon any
of the assets of the Issuer. Any money or property collected by the Indenture
Trustee shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.04(b) hereof.

         Section 5.17 Performance and Enforcement of Certain Obligations. (a)
Promptly following a request from the Indenture Trustee to do so, the Issuer in
its capacity as holder of the Mortgage Loans, shall take all such lawful action
as the Indenture Trustee may request to cause the Issuer to compel or secure the
performance and observance by the Seller and the Master Servicer, as applicable,
of each of their obligations to the Issuer under or in connection with the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and to
exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available
to the Issuer under or in connection with the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
and the Sale and Servicing Agreement to the extent and in the manner directed by
the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Mortgage Loans, including the
transmission of notices of default on the part of the Seller or the Master
Servicer thereunder and the institution of legal or administrative actions or
proceedings to compel or secure performance by the Seller or the Master Servicer
of each of their obligations under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and the
Sale and Servicing Agreement.

         (b) The Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Mortgage Loans, may, and
at the direction (which direction shall be in writing or by telephone (confirmed
in writing promptly

                                       36

<PAGE>

         thereafter)) of the Holders of 66-2/3% of the Note Principal Balances
         of the Notes (subject to Section 6.02(k)) shall, exercise all rights,
         remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the Issuer against the
         Seller or the Master Servicer under or in connection with the Mortgage
         Loan Purchase Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement, including
         the right or power to take any action to compel or secure performance
         or observance by the Seller or the Master Servicer, as the case may be,
         of each of their obligations to the Issuer thereunder and to give any
         consent, request, notice, direction, approval, extension or waiver
         under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and the Sale and Servicing
         Agreement, as the case may be, and any right of the Issuer to take such
         action shall not be suspended.

                                   ARTICLE VI

               The Indenture Trustee and Securities Administrator

         Section 6.01 Duties of Indenture Trustee and Securities Administrator.
(a) If an Event of Default of which the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge
or has received written notice has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture
Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and
use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own
affairs.

         (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default of which the
Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge or has received written notice, in the
case of the Indenture Trustee and, at any time, in the case of the Securities
Administrator:

                  (i) the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator
         undertake to perform such duties and only such duties as are
         specifically set forth in this Indenture and the other Basic Documents
         to which it is a party and no implied covenants or obligations shall be
         read into this Indenture and the other Basic Documents against the
         Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator; and

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

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

                  (i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b)
         of this Section 6.01;

                  (ii) neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities
         Administrator shall be liable for any error of judgment made in good
         faith by a Responsible Officer unless it is proved that the Indenture
         Trustee or the Securities Administrator was negligent in ascertaining
         the pertinent facts; and

                  (iii) neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities
         Administrator shall be liable with respect to any action it takes or
         omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by
         it from Noteholders or from the Issuer, which they are entitled to give
         under the Basic Documents.

                                       38

<PAGE>

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

         (e) Money held in trust by the Indenture Trustee need not be segregated
from other trust funds except to the extent required by law or the terms of this
Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the Trust Agreement.

         (f) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee
or the Securities Administrator to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise
incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or
in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable
grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it
against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

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

         (h) The Indenture Trustee shall act in accordance with Sections 6.03
and 6.04 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and shall act as successor to the
Master Servicer or appoint a successor Master Servicer in accordance with
Section 6.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

         Section 6.02 Rights of Indenture Trustee and Securities Administrator.
Except as provided in Section 6.01: (a) The Indenture Trustee and the Securities
Administrator may rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed or presented by the proper person. The Indenture Trustee and the
Securities Administrator need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the
document.

         (b) Before the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator acts
or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer's Certificate or an Opinion
of Counsel. Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall
be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on
an Officer's Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

(c) Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be
liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes
to be authorized or within its rights or powers; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Indenture Trustee's or Securities Administrator's conduct does not constitute
willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

         (d) The Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator may each
consult with counsel, and the advice or Opinion of Counsel (which shall not be
at the expense of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator) with
respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Notes shall be full
and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any
action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in
accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

         (e) For the limited purpose of effecting any action to be undertaken by
each of the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator, but not
specifically as a duty of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator
in the Indenture, each of the Indenture Trustee and the

                                       39

<PAGE>

Securities Administrator may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
perform any duties hereunder, either directly or by or through agents,
attorneys, custodians or nominees appointed with due care, and shall not be
responsible for any willful misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent,
attorney, custodian or nominee so appointed.

         (f) The Indenture Trustee or its Affiliates are permitted to receive
additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Indenture Trustee's
economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator,
shareholder servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain
of the Permitted Investments, (ii) using Affiliates to effect transactions in
certain Permitted Investments and (iii) effecting transactions in certain
Permitted Investments. Such compensation shall not be considered an amount that
is reimbursable or payable to the Indenture Trustee (i) pursuant to Sections
3.05(d), 5.04(b) or 6.07 hereunder or (ii) out of Available Funds.

         (g) Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, in no
event shall the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator be liable for
special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever
(including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Indenture Trustee or
the Securities Administrator, respectively, has been advised of the likelihood
of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

         (h) None of the Securities Administrator, the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee shall be responsible for the acts or omissions of the other, it being
understood that this Indenture shall not be construed to render them partners,
joint venturers or agents of one another.

         (i) Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator
shall be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial
liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise
of any of its rights or powers, if there is reasonable ground for believing that
the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability
is not reasonably assured to it, and none of the provisions contained in this
Indenture shall in any event require the Indenture Trustee or the Securities
Administrator to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of,
any of the obligations of the Master Servicer under the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, except during such time, if any, as the Indenture Trustee shall be
the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges
of, the Master Servicer in accordance with the terms of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement.

         (j) Except for those actions that the Indenture Trustee or the
Securities Administrator are required to take hereunder, neither the Indenture
Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall have any obligation or liability
to take any action or to refrain from taking any action hereunder in the absence
of written direction as provided hereunder.

         (k) Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator
shall be under any obligation to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in
it by this Indenture, other than its obligation to give notices pursuant to this
Indenture, or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in
relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any of the Noteholders
pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Noteholders shall have
offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the
costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby.
Nothing contained herein shall, however,

                                       40

<PAGE>

relieve the Indenture Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has actual
knowledge (which has not been cured or waived), to exercise such of the rights
and powers vested in it by this Indenture and to use the same degree of care and
skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise under the
circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

         (l) Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator
shall be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any
resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,
request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless
requested in writing to do so by Holders of Notes representing not less than 25%
of the Note Principal Balance of the Notes and provided that the payment within
a reasonable time to the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as
applicable, of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in
the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee or
the Securities Administrator, as applicable, reasonably assured to the Indenture
Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, by the security afforded
to it by the terms of this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee or the Securities
Administrator may require reasonable indemnity against such expense or liability
as a condition to taking any such action. The reasonable expense of every such
examination shall be paid by the Noteholders requesting the investigation.

         (m) Should the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator deem
the nature of any action required on its part to be unclear, the Indenture
Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, may require prior to such
action that it be provided by the Depositor with reasonable further
instructions.

         (n) The right of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator
to perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Indenture shall not be
construed as a duty, and neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities
Administrator shall be accountable for other than its negligence or willful
misconduct in the performance of any such act.

         (o) Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator
shall be required to give any bond or surety with respect to the execution of
the trust created hereby or the powers granted hereunder.

         (p) Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator
shall have any duty to conduct any affirmative investigation as to the
occurrence of any condition requiring the repurchase of any Mortgage Loan by the
Seller pursuant to this Indenture or the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, as
applicable, or the eligibility of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of this
Indenture.

         (q) The Indenture Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or actual
knowledge of any Event of Default unless actually known to a Responsible Officer
of the Indenture Trustee or written notice thereof (making reference to this
Indenture or the Notes) is received by the Indenture Trustee at the Corporate
Trust Office.

         Section 6.03 Individual Rights of Indenture Trustee. (a) The Indenture
Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee
of Notes and may otherwise

                                       41

<PAGE>

deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it
were not Indenture Trustee, subject to the requirements of the Trust Indenture
Act. Any Note Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with
like rights. However, the Indenture Trustee must comply with Sections 6.11 and
6.12 hereof.

         (b) The Securities Administrator in its individual or any other
capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with

Securities Administrator, subject to the requirements of the Trust Indenture
Act.

         Section 6.04 Indenture Trustee's and Securities Administrator's
Disclaimers. Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator
shall be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or
adequacy of this Indenture, the Notes or the other Basic Documents, neither
shall be accountable for the Issuer's use of the proceeds from the Notes, and
neither shall be responsible for any statement of the Issuer in the Indenture or
in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes
other than, with respect to the Indenture Trustee only, the Indenture Trustee's
certificate of authentication.

         Section 6.05 Notice of Event of Default. Subject to Section 5.01, the
Indenture Trustee shall promptly mail to each Noteholder notice of the Event of
Default after a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee obtains actual
knowledge or written notice of such event, unless such Event of Default shall
have been waived or cured. Except in the case of an Event of Default in payment
of principal of or interest on any Note, the Indenture Trustee may withhold the
notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith
determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Noteholders.

         Section 6.06 Reports by Indenture Trustee to Holders and Tax
Administration. The Securities Administrator shall deliver to each Noteholder
such information as may be required and such other customary information as the
Securities Administrator may determine and/or to be required by the Internal
Revenue Service or by a federal or state law or rules or regulations to enable
such holder to prepare its federal and state income tax returns.

         The Securities Administrator shall prepare and file (or cause to be
prepared and filed), on behalf of the Owner Trustee, all tax returns (if any)
and information reports, tax elections and such annual or other reports of the
Issuer as are necessary for preparation of tax returns and information reports
as provided in Section 5.03 of the Trust Agreement, including without limitation
Form 1099. All tax returns and information reports shall be signed by the Owner
Trustee as provided in Section 5.03 of the Trust Agreement.

         Section 6.07 Compensation. The fees of the Indenture Trustee shall be
paid by the Securities Administrator pursuant to a separate agreement between
the Indenture Trustee and Securities Administrator. In addition, the Indenture
Trustee and the Securities Administrator will each be entitled to recover from
the Payment Account pursuant to Section 4.05(a) of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances and
the expenses of the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator,
respectively, in connection with any breach of this Agreement or any claim or
legal action (including any pending or threatened claim or legal action) or
otherwise incurred or made by the Indenture Trustee or the

                                       42

<PAGE>

Securities Administrator, respectively, in the administration of the trusts
hereunder (including the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of
its counsel) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from
its negligence or intentional misconduct or which is the responsibility of the
Noteholders as provided herein. Such compensation and reimbursement obligation
shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a
trustee of an express trust. Additionally, each of the Indenture Trustee and the
Securities Administrator and any director, officer, employee or agent of the
Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall be indemnified by the
Trust and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense (including
reasonable attorney's fees and expenses) incurred in the administration of this
Agreement (other than its ordinary out of pocket expenses incurred hereunder) or
in connection with any claim or legal action relating to (a) the Basic Documents
or (b) the Notes, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason
of its negligence or intentional misconduct, or which is the responsibility of
the Noteholders as provided herein. Such indemnity and agreement to hold
harmless shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or
removal of the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator, as
applicable, hereunder.

         The Issuer's payment obligations to the Indenture Trustee and
Securities Administrator pursuant to this Section 6.07 shall survive the
discharge of this Indenture and the termination or resignation of the Indenture
Trustee or Securities Administrator. When the Indenture Trustee or the
Securities Administrator incurs expenses after the occurrence of an Event of
Default with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute
expenses of administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other
applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

         Section 6.08 Replacement of Indenture Trustee and the Securities
Administrator. No resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee or the
Securities Administrator and no appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee or
successor Securities Administrator shall become effective until the acceptance
of appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee or successor Securities
Administrator pursuant to this Section 6.08. The Indenture Trustee or the
Securities Administrator may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer.
Holders of a majority of Note Principal Balances of the Notes may remove either
of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator by so notifying the
Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator and may appoint a successor
Indenture Trustee or successor Securities Administrator. The Issuer shall remove
the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, if:

                  (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator
         fails to comply with Section 6.11 hereof;

                  (ii) the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator is
         adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent;

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

                  (iv) the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator
         otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

                                       43

<PAGE>

         If the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator resigns or is
removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of the Indenture Trustee or the
Securities Administrator for any reason (the Indenture Trustee or the Securities
Administrator in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture
Trustee or the retiring Securities Administrator), the Issuer shall promptly
appoint a successor Indenture Trustee or successor Securities Administrator.

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

         If a successor Indenture Trustee or successor Securities Administrator
does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Indenture Trustee or the
retiring Securities Administrator, as applicable, resigns or is removed, the
retiring Indenture Trustee or the retiring Securities Administrator, the Issuer
or the Holders of a majority of Note Principal Balances of the Notes may
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
Indenture Trustee or successor Securities Administrator.

         Notwithstanding the replacement of the Indenture Trustee or the
Securities Administrator pursuant to this Section, the Issuer's obligations
under Section 6.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Indenture
Trustee or the retiring Securities Administrator.

         Section 6.09 Successor Indenture Trustee and Securities Administrator
by Merger. If the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator consolidates
with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its
corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking
association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation, without any
further act, shall be the successor Indenture Trustee or successor Securities
Administrator, as applicable; provided, that such corporation or banking
association shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under Section 6.11 hereof.
The Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall each provide the
Rating Agencies with prior written notice of any such transaction.

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

                                       44

<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Section 6.11 Eligibility; Disqualification. The Indenture Trustee shall

excluded from the operation of TIA ss. 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures

for such exclusion set forth in TIA ss. 310(b)(1) are met.

         Section 6.12 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer. The
Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA ss. 311(a), excluding any creditor
relationship listed in TIA ss. 311(b). An Indenture Trustee who has resigned or
been removed shall be subject to TIA ss. 311(a) to the extent indicated.

the Seller of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement or any repurchase by the Servicer of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to
Section 3.21 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement; provided, however, any such
conveyance shall be without recourse to the Indenture Trustee and without any
obligation on its part to make any representations or warranties with respect to
such property released from the lien of this Indenture. No party

                                       52

<PAGE>

relying upon an instrument executed by the Indenture Trustee as provided in
Article VIII hereunder shall be bound to ascertain the Indenture Trustee's
authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent, or see to
the application of any monies.

         (b) The Indenture Trustee shall, at such time as (i) there are no Notes
Outstanding and (ii) all sums due to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this
Indenture have been paid, release any remaining portion of the Trust Estate that
secured the Notes from the lien of this Indenture.

         (c) The Indenture Trustee shall release property from the lien of this
Indenture pursuant to this Section 8.05 only upon receipt of a request from the
Issuer which, except in the case of a repurchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to
Sections 2.02 or 3.21 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, shall also be
accompanied by an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that
all applicable requirements have been satisfied.

         Section 8.06 Surrender of Notes Upon Final Payment. By acceptance of
any Note, the Holder thereof agrees to surrender such Note to the Indenture
Trustee promptly, prior to such Noteholder's receipt of the final payment
thereon.

         Section 8.07 Optional Redemption of the Notes. (a) The Holder of the
Certificates, or, if there is no single Holder, the Majority Certificateholder,
shall have the option to redeem the Notes in whole, but not in part, on any
Payment Date on or after the Payment Date on which the aggregate Scheduled
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the end of the prior Due Period is
less than or equal to 20% of the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date. The aggregate redemption price for the
Notes will be equal to the unpaid Note Principal Balance of the Notes as of the
Payment Date on which the proposed redemption will take place in accordance with
the foregoing, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the
applicable Note Interest Rate through such Payment Date (including any Basis
Risk Shortfall Carry-Forward Amounts), plus an amount sufficient to pay in full
all amounts owing to the Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer and the
Securities Administrator pursuant to any Basic Document (which amounts shall be
specified by such Person in writing upon request of the Issuer, the Master
Servicer and the Securities Administrator, as applicable).

         (b) In order to exercise the foregoing option, the Holder of the
Certificates, or the Majority Certificateholder, as applicable, shall provide
written notice of its exercise of such option to the Indenture Trustee, the
Securities Administrator, the Owner Trustee and the Master Servicer at least 15
days prior to its exercise. Following receipt of the notice, the Indenture
Trustee shall provide notice to the Noteholders of the final payment on the
Notes. In addition, the Holder of the Certificates, or the Majority
Certificateholder, as applicable shall, not less than one Business Day prior to
the proposed Payment Date on which such redemption is to be made, deposit the
aggregate redemption price specified in (a) above with the Indenture Trustee,
who shall deposit the aggregate redemption price into the Payment Account and
shall, on the Payment Date after receipt of the funds, apply such funds to make
final payments of principal and interest on the Notes in accordance with the
instructions of the Securities Administrator and Section 3.05 hereof and payment
in full to the Indenture Trustee, and this Indenture shall be discharged subject
to the provisions of Section 4.10 hereof. If for any reason the amount deposited
by the Holder of the Certificates, or the Majority Certificateholder, as
applicable is not sufficient to

                                       53

<PAGE>

make such redemption or such redemption cannot be completed for any reason, the
amount so deposited by the Holder of the Certificates, or the Majority
Certificateholder, as applicable with the Indenture Trustee shall be immediately
returned to the Holder of the Certificates, or the Majority Certificateholder,
as applicable in full and shall not be used for any other purpose or be deemed
to be part of the Trust Estate.

         adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Notes;

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

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

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such indenture supplements shall be entered into
unless the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall have
received an Opinion of Counsel not at the expense of the Indenture Trustee or
the Securities Administrator as to the enforceability of any such indenture
supplement against the Issuer and to the effect that (i) such indenture
supplement is authorized or permitted hereunder and (ii) entering into such
indenture supplement will not result in a "significant modification" of the
Notes under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1001-3 or adversely affect the status
of the Notes as indebtedness for federal income tax purposes.

         The Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator are hereby
authorized to join in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and to
make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein
contained.

         (b) The Issuer, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee,
when authorized by an Issuer Request in the case of the Securities Administrator
and the Indenture Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, may, also without the
consent of any of the Holders of the Notes and prior notice to the Rating
Agency, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the
purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating
any of the provisions of, this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the
rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
such action as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, (i) is authorized or
permitted by this Indenture, and shall not (ii) adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Noteholder and (iii) will not cause the Issuer to
be subject to an entity level tax for federal income tax purposes.

         Section 9.02 Supplemental Indentures With Consent of Noteholders. The
Issuer, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized
by an Issuer Request in the case of the Securities Administrator and the

the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority of the Note Principal
Balance of each Class of Notes affected thereby, by Act (as defined in Section
10.03 hereof) of such Holders delivered to the Issuer, the Securities
Administrator and the Indenture Trustee, enter into an indenture or indentures
supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in

Indenture; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without
the consent of the Holder of each Note affected thereby:

                  (i) change the date of payment of any installment of principal
         of or interest on any Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof or
         the interest rate thereon, change the provisions of this Indenture
         relating to the application of collections on, or the proceeds of the
         sale of, the Trust Estate to payment of principal of or interest on the
         Notes, or change any place of payment where, or the coin or currency in
         which, any Note or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right
         to institute suit for the enforcement of the provisions of this
         Indenture requiring the application of funds available therefor, as
         provided in Article V, to the payment of any such amount due on the
         Notes on or after the respective due dates thereof;

                                       56

<PAGE>

                  (ii) reduce the percentage of the Note Principal Balances of
         the Notes, the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such
         supplemental indenture, or the consent of the Holders of which is
         required for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this
         Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences provided
         for in this Indenture;

                  (v) modify any provision of this Section 9.02 except to
         increase any percentage specified herein or to provide that certain
         additional provisions of this Indenture or the Basic Documents cannot
         be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Note
         affected thereby;

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

                  (vii) permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a
         parity with the lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the
         Trust Estate or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated herein,
         terminate the lien of this Indenture on any property at any time
         subject hereto or deprive the Holder of any Note of the security
         provided by the lien of this Indenture;

and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that such action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of
Counsel, cause the Issuer to be subject to an entity level tax.

         Any such action shall not adversely affect in any material respect the
interest of any Holder (other than a Holder who shall consent to such
supplemental indenture) as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (provided by, and
at the expense of, the Person requesting such supplemental indenture) delivered
to the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator.

         It shall not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders under this Section
9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but
it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

         Promptly after the execution by the Issuer, the Securities
Administrator and the Indenture Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant
to this Section 9.02, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the
Notes to which such amendment or supplemental indenture relates a notice setting
forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure

                                       57

of the Indenture Trustee to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not,
however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental
indenture.

         Section 9.03 Execution of Supplemental Indentures. In executing, or
permitting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture
permitted by this Article IX or the modification thereby of the trusts created
by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall
be entitled to receive, and subject to Sections 6.01 and 6.02 hereof, shall be
fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel not at the expense of the
Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator stating that the execution of
such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The
Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator each may, but shall not be
obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the
Indenture Trustee's or the Securities Administrator's own rights, duties,
liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

         Section 9.04 Effect of Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution of
any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions hereof, this Indenture
shall be and shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith
with respect to the Notes affected thereby, and the respective rights,
limitations of rights, obligations, duties, liabilities and immunities under
this Indenture of the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the
Issuer and the Holders of the Notes shall thereafter be determined, exercised
and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and
amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture
shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture
for any and all purposes.

         Section 9.05 Conformity with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment of
this Indenture and every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this
Article IX shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then
in effect so long as this Indenture shall then be qualified under the Trust
Indenture Act.

         Section 9.06 Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures. Notes
authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture
pursuant to this Article IX may, and if required by the Indenture Trustee shall,
bear a notation in form approved by the Indenture Trustee as to any matter
provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion
of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, to any such supplemental indenture may
be prepared and executed by the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the
Indenture Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

         deposited and of all other such securities made the basis of any such
         withdrawal or release since the commencement of the then current fiscal
         year of the Issuer, as set forth in the certificates delivered pursuant
         to clause (i) above and this clause (ii), is 10% or more of the Note

         the proposed release will not impair the security under this Indenture
         in contravention of the provisions hereof.

                  (iv) Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the
         Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the
         opinion of any signer thereof as to the matters described in clause
         (iii) above, the Issuer shall also furnish to the Indenture Trustee an

Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion
as to such matters in one or several documents.

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

                                       60

<PAGE>

with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Seller or the
Issuer, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should
know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such
matters are erroneous.

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

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

         Section 10.03 Acts of Noteholders. (a) Any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by
this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders may be embodied in and
evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by
such Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing; and except as
herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when
such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and,
where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or
instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein
sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Noteholders signing such instrument or
instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing
appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture
and (subject to Section 6.01 hereof) conclusive in favor of the Indenture
Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 10.03
hereof.

         (b) The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved in any manner that the Indenture Trustee
deems sufficient.

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

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

         Section 10.04 Notices etc., to Indenture Trustee, Securities
Administrator, Issuer and Rating Agencies. Any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or act of Noteholders or other documents
provided or permitted by this Indenture shall be in writing and if such request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or act of Noteholders
is to be made upon, given or furnished to or filed with:

<PAGE>

                  (i) the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuer
         shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and made,
         given, furnished or filed to or with the Indenture Trustee at the
         Corporate Trust Office. The Indenture Trustee shall promptly transmit
         any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Issuer;

                  (ii) the Securities Administrator by any Noteholder or by the
         Issuer shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given,
         furnished or filed in writing to or with the Securities Administrator
         at Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, P.O. Box 98, Columbia
         Maryland 21046 (or, in the case of overnight deliveries, 9062 Old
         Annapolis Road, Columbia, Maryland 21045) (Attention: Corporate Trust
         Services - HomeBanc 2004-2), facsimile no.: (410) 715-2380, or such
         other address as may hereafter be furnished to the other parties hereto
         in writing. The Securities Administrator shall promptly transmit any
         notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Issuer

                  (iii) the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder
         shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and
         mailed first-class, postage prepaid to the Issuer addressed to:
         HomeBanc Mortgage Trust 2004-2, in care of Wilmington Trust Company,
         Rodney Square North, 1100 North Market Street, Wilmington, Delaware
         19990-0001, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, or at any other
         address previously furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the
         Issuer. The Issuer shall promptly transmit any notice received by it
         from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee.

         Notices required to be given to the Rating Agency by the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Owner Trustee shall be in
writing, mailed first-class postage pre-paid, to, in the case of Standard &
Poor's, at the following address: Standard & Poor's, 55 Water Street, 41st
Floor, New York, New York 10041, Attention of Asset Backed Surveillance
Department, in the case of Moody's, at the following address: Moody's Investors
Service, Inc., 99 Church Street, New York, New York 10007; or at such other
address as shall be designated by written notice to the other parties.

         Section 10.05 Notices to Noteholders; Waiver. Where this Indenture
provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be
sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing
and mailed, first-class, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such
event, at such Person's address as it appears on the Note Register, not later
than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the
giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail,
neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed
to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with
respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein
provided shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given regardless of
whether such notice is in fact actually received.

         Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may
be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either
before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such
notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed

                                       62

<PAGE>

with the Indenture Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to
the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver.

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

         Where this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating Agencies,
failure to give such notice shall not affect any other rights or obligations
created hereunder, and shall not under any circumstance constitute an Event of
Default.

         Section 10.06 Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any provision
hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is
required to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust
Indenture Act, such required provision shall control.

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

         Section 10.07 Effect of Headings. The Article and Section headings
herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

         Section 10.08 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in
this Indenture and the Notes by the Issuer shall bind its successors and
assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Indenture Trustee in
this Indenture shall bind its successors, co-trustees and agents.

         Section 10.09 Separability. In case any provision in this Indenture or
in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality,
and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected
or impaired thereby.

         Section 10.10 [Reserved].

         Section 10.11 Legal Holidays. In any case where the date on which any
payment is due shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other
provision of the Notes or this Indenture) payment need not be made on such date,
but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and
effect as if made on the date on which nominally due, and no interest shall
accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date.

         Section 10.12 GOVERNING LAW. THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS
CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE
PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

<PAGE>

         Section 10.13 Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an
original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the
same instrument.

         Section 10.14 Recording of Indenture. If this Indenture is subject to
recording in any appropriate public recording offices, such recording is to be
effected by the Issuer and at its expense accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel
at its expense (which may be counsel to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any
other counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee) to the effect that
such recording is necessary either for the protection of the Noteholders or any
other Person secured hereunder or for the enforcement of any right or remedy
granted to the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture.

         Section 10.15 Issuer Obligation. No recourse may be taken, directly or
indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Securities
Administrator, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under
this Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection
herewith or therewith, against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in
its individual capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer
or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director, employee or
agent of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity,
any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Securities Administrator,
the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or of any successor or assign of the
Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, except as any
such Person may have expressly agreed (it being understood that the Indenture
Trustee and the Owner Trustee have no such obligations in their individual
capacity) and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully
liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration
for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to pay any installment or call
owing to such entity. For all purposes of this Indenture, in the performance of
any duties or obligations of the Issuer hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall be
subject to, and entitled to the benefits of, the terms and provisions of Article
VI, VII and VIII of the Trust Agreement.

         Section 10.16 No Petition. The Indenture Trustee and the Securities
Administrator, by entering into this Indenture, each Noteholder, by accepting a
Note, and each Certificateholder, by accepting a Certificate, hereby covenant
and agree that they will not at any time prior to one year from the date of
termination hereof, institute against the Depositor or the Issuer, or join in
any institution against the Depositor or the Issuer of, any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other
proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law
in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, this Indenture or any
of the Basic Documents; provided however, that nothing herein shall prohibit the
Indenture Trustee from filing proofs of claim in any proceeding.

         Section 10.17 Inspection. The Issuer agrees that, at its expense, on
reasonable prior notice, it shall permit any representative of the Indenture
Trustee or the Securities Administrator, during the Issuer's normal business
hours, to examine all the books of account, records, reports and other papers of
the Issuer, to make copies and extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be
audited by Independent certified public accountants, and to discuss the Issuer's
affairs, finances and accounts with the Issuer's officers, employees, and
Independent certified public accountants, all at such reasonable times and as
often as may be reasonably requested. The Indenture Trustee

                                       64

<PAGE>

shall cause its representatives to hold in confidence all such information
except to the extent disclosure may be required by law, regulation, judicial
process or made to the Indenture Trustee's auditors, regulators, attorneys or
other governmental authorities and except to the extent that the Indenture
Trustee or the Securities Administrator may reasonably determine that such
disclosure is consistent with its obligations hereunder.

trust, for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co. or registered
assigns, the principal sum of ($_________________) in monthly installments on
the twenty-fifth day of each month or, if such day is not a Business Day, the
next succeeding Business Day (each a "Payment Date"), commencing in November
2004 and ending on or before the Payment Date occurring in [ ] (the "Final
Scheduled Payment Date") and to pay interest on the Note Principal Balance of
this Note (this "Note") outstanding from time to time as provided below.

         This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of the Issuer's
Mortgage-Backed Notes, Series 2004-2 (the "Notes"), issued under an Indenture
dated as of October 29, 2004 (the "Indenture"), among the Issuer, Wells Fargo
Bank, National Association (the "Securities Administrator") and U.S. Bank
National Association, as indenture trustee (the "Indenture Trustee", which term
includes any successor Indenture Trustee under the Indenture), to which
Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a
statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture
Trustee, and the Holders of the Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are to
be authenticated and delivered. All terms used in this Note which are defined in
the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

         Payments of principal and interest on this Note will be made on each
Payment Date to the Noteholder of record as of the related Record Date. The
"Note Principal Balance" of a Note as of any date of determination is equal to
the initial Note Principal Balance thereof, reduced by the aggregate of all
amounts previously paid with respect to such Note on account of principal and
the aggregate amount of cumulative Realized Losses allocated to such Note on all
prior Payment Dates.

         The principal of, and interest on, this Note are due and payable as
described in the Indenture, in such coin or currency of the United States of
America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and
private debts. All payments made by the Issuer with respect to this Note shall
be equal to this Note's pro rata share of the aggregate payments on all Class
A-[_] Notes as described above, and shall be applied as between interest and
principal as provided in the Indenture.

                                     A-1-2

<PAGE>

         All principal and interest accrued on the Notes, if not previously
paid, will become finally due and payable at the Final Scheduled Payment Date.

         The Notes are subject to redemption in whole, but not in part, by the
Holder of the Certificates, or, if there is no single Holder, the Majority
Certificateholder, on any Payment Date on or after the Payment Date on which the
aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the end of the
prior Due Period is less than or equal to 20% of the aggregate Scheduled
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.

         The Issuer shall not be liable upon the indebtedness evidenced by the
Notes except to the extent of amounts available from the Trust Estate which
constitutes security for the payment of the Notes. The assets included in the
Trust Estate will be the sole source of payments on the Class A-[_] Notes, and
each Holder hereof, by its acceptance of this Note, agrees that (i) such Note
will be limited in right of payment to amounts available from the Trust Estate
as provided in the Indenture and (ii) such Holder shall have no recourse to the
Issuer, the Securities Administrator, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee,
the Depositor, EMC Mortgage Corporation, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the
Special Servicer or any of their respective affiliates, or to the assets of any
of the foregoing entities, except the assets of the Issuer pledged to secure the
A-[_] Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the rights conveyed by the Issuer
under the Indenture.

         Any payment of principal or interest payable on this Note which is
punctually paid on the applicable Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in
whose name such Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date
for such Payment Date by check mailed to such person's address as it appears in
the Note Register on such Record Date, except for the final installment of
principal and interest payable with respect to such Note, which shall be payable
as provided below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon written request with
appropriate instructions by the Holder of this Note delivered to the Indenture
Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date, any payment of
principal or interest, other than the final installment of principal or
interest, shall be made by wire transfer to an account in the United States
designated by such Holder. All scheduled reductions in the principal amount of a
Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) effected by payments of principal made
on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all Holders of this Note and of any
note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or
in lieu thereof, whether or not such payment is noted on such Note. The final
payment of this Note shall be payable upon presentation and surrender thereof on
or after the Payment Date thereof at the office designated by the Indenture
Trustee or the office or agency of the Issuer maintained by it for such purpose
pursuant to Section 3.02 of the Indenture.

         Subject to the foregoing provisions, each Note delivered under the
Indenture, upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any
other Note shall carry the right to unpaid principal and interest that were
carried by such other Note.

         If an Event of Default as defined in the Indenture shall occur and be
continuing with respect to the Notes, the Notes may become or be declared due
and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If any
such acceleration of maturity occurs prior to the payment of the entire unpaid
Note Principal Balance of the Notes, the amount payable to the

                                     A-1-3

<PAGE>

Holder of this Note will be equal to the sum of the unpaid Note Principal
Balance of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon as
described in the Indenture. The Indenture provides that, notwithstanding the
acceleration of the maturity of the Notes, under certain circumstances specified
therein, all amounts collected as proceeds of the Trust Estate securing the
Notes or otherwise shall continue to be applied to payments of principal of and
interest on the Notes as if they had not been declared due and payable.

         The Holder of this Note or Beneficial Owner of any interest herein is
deemed to represent that either (1) it is not acquiring the Note with Plan
Assets or (2) (A) the acquisition, holding and transfer of a Note will not give
rise to a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code and (B) the Notes are rated investment grade or better and such
person believes that the Notes are properly treated as indebtedness without
substantial equity features for purposes of the DOL Regulations, and agrees to
so treat the Notes. Alternatively, regardless of the rating of the Notes, such
person may provide the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee with an Opinion
of Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel will not be at the expense of the Issuer,
the Seller, any Underwriter, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the
Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any
successor servicer which opines that the acquisition, holding and transfer of
such Note or interest therein is permissible under applicable law, will not
constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Issuer, the Seller, the
Depositor, any Underwriter, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Master
Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer or the Special Servicer to
any obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Indenture.

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register of
the Issuer. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of, or presentation of a
written instrument of transfer for, this Note at the office or agency designated
by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, accompanied by proper instruments of
assignment in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, one or more new Notes
of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate initial Note Principal
Balance, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

         Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner
of such Note (i) on the applicable Record Date for the purpose of making
payments and interest of such Note, and (ii) on any other date for all other
purposes whatsoever, as the owner hereof, whether or not this Note be overdue,
and neither the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee nor any such agent of the Issuer
or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any
time by the Issuer and the Holders of a majority of all Notes at the time
outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of
Notes representing specified percentages of the aggregate Note Principal Balance
of the Notes on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive any past
Default under the Indenture

                                     A-1-4
<PAGE>

and its consequences. Any such waiver by the Holder, at the time of the giving
thereof, of this Note (or any one or more predecessor Notes) shall bind the
Holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or
waiver is made upon such Note. The Indenture also permits the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in
the Indenture without the consent of the Holders of the Notes issued thereunder.

         Initially, the Notes will be registered in the name of Cede & Co. as
nominee of DTC, acting in its capacity as the Depository for the Notes. The
Notes will be delivered by the clearing agency in denominations as provided in
the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth. The Notes
are exchangeable for a like aggregate initial Note Principal Balance of Notes of
different authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering
same.

         Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been executed by
the Indenture Trustee by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to
any benefit under the Indenture, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

         AS PROVIDED IN THE INDENTURE, THIS NOTE AND THE INDENTURE CREATING THIS
NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED THEREIN.

         HomeBanc Mortgage Trust 2004-2 (the "Issuer"), a Delaware statutory
trust, for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co. or registered
assigns, the principal sum of ______________________________ ($___________) in
monthly installments on the twenty-fifth day of each month or, if such day is
not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day (each a "Payment Date"),
commencing in November 2004 and ending on or before the Payment Date occurring
in [ ] (the "Final Scheduled Payment Date") and to pay interest on the Note
Principal Balance of this Note (this "Note") outstanding from time to time as
provided below.

         This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of the Issuer's
Mortgage-Backed Notes, Series 2004-2 (the "Notes"), issued under an Indenture
dated as of October 29, 2004 (the "Indenture"), among the Issuer, Wells Fargo
Bank, National Association (the "Securities Administrator") and U.S. Bank
National Association, as indenture trustee (the "Indenture Trustee", which term
includes any successor Indenture Trustee under the Indenture), to which
Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a
statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture
Trustee, and the Holders of the Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are to
be authenticated and delivered. All terms used in this Note which are defined in
the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

         Payments of principal and interest on this Note will be made on each
Payment Date to the Noteholder of record as of the related Record Date. The
"Note Principal Balance" of a Note as of any date of determination is equal to
the initial Note Principal Balance thereof, reduced by the aggregate of all
amounts previously paid with respect to such Note on account of principal and
the aggregate amount of cumulative Realized Losses allocated to such Note on all
prior Payment Dates.

         The principal of, and interest on, this Note are due and payable as
described in the Indenture, in such coin or currency of the United States of
America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and
private debts. All payments made by the Issuer with respect to this Note shall
be equal to this Note's pro rata share of the aggregate payments on all Class
M-[_] Notes as described above, and shall be applied as between interest and
principal as provided in the Indenture.

                                     A-2-2

<PAGE>

         All principal and interest accrued on the Notes, if not previously
paid, will become finally due and payable at the Final Scheduled Payment Date.

         The Notes are subject to redemption in whole, but not in part, by the
Holder of the Certificates, or, if there is no single Holder, the Majority
Certificateholder, on any Payment Date on or after the Payment Date on which the
aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than or
equal to 20% of aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as
of the Cut-off Date.

         The Issuer shall not be liable upon the indebtedness evidenced by the
Notes except to the extent of amounts available from the Trust Estate which
constitutes security for the payment of the Notes. The assets included in the
Trust Estate will be the sole source of payments on the Class M-[_] Notes, and
each Holder hereof, by its acceptance of this Note, agrees that (i) such Note
will be limited in right of payment to amounts available from the Trust Estate
as provided in the Indenture and (ii) such Holder shall have no recourse to the
Issuer, the Securities Administrator, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee,
the Depositor, EMC Mortgage Corporation, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the
Special Servicer or any of their respective affiliates, or to the assets of any
of the foregoing entities, except the assets of the Issuer pledged to secure the
Class M-[_] Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the rights conveyed by the
Issuer under the Indenture.

         Any payment of principal or interest payable on this Note which is
punctually paid on the applicable Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in
whose name such Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date
for such Payment Date by check mailed to such person's address as it appears in
the Note Register on such Record Date, except for the final installment of
principal and interest payable with respect to such Note, which shall be payable
as provided below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon written request with
appropriate instructions by the Holder of this Note delivered to the Indenture
Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date, any payment of
principal or interest, other than the final installment of principal or
interest, shall be made by wire transfer to an account in the United States
designated by such Holder. All scheduled reductions in the principal amount of a
Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) effected by payments of principal made
on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all Holders of this Note and of any
note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or
in lieu thereof, whether or not such payment is noted on such Note. The final
payment of this Note shall be payable upon presentation and surrender thereof on
or after the Payment Date thereof at the office designated by the Indenture
Trustee or the office or agency of the Issuer maintained by it for such purpose
pursuant to Section 3.02 of the Indenture.

         Subject to the foregoing provisions, each Note delivered under the
Indenture, upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any
other Note shall carry the right to unpaid principal and interest that were
carried by such other Note.

         If an Event of Default as defined in the Indenture shall occur and be
continuing with respect to the Notes, the Notes may become or be declared due
and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If any
such acceleration of maturity occurs prior to the payment of the entire unpaid
Note Principal Balance of the Notes, the amount payable to the

                                     A-2-3

<PAGE>

Holder of this Note will be equal to the sum of the unpaid Note Principal
Balance of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon as
described in the Indenture. The Indenture provides that, notwithstanding the
acceleration of the maturity of the Notes, under certain circumstances specified
therein, all amounts collected as proceeds of the Trust Estate securing the
Notes or otherwise shall continue to be applied to payments of principal of and
interest on the Notes as if they had not been declared due and payable.

         The Holder of this Note or Beneficial Owner of any interest herein is
deemed to represent that either (1) it is not acquiring the Note with Plan
Assets or (2) (A) the acquisition, holding and transfer of a Note will not give
rise to a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code and (B) the Notes are rated investment grade or better and such
person believes that the Notes are properly treated as indebtedness without
substantial equity features for purposes of the DOL Regulations, and agrees to
so treat the Notes. Alternatively, regardless of the rating of the Notes, such
person may provide the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee with an Opinion
of Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel will not be at the expense of the Issuer,
the Seller, any Underwriter, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the
Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any
successor servicer which opines that the acquisition, holding and transfer of
such Note or interest therein is permissible under applicable law, will not
constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Issuer, the Seller, the
Depositor, any Underwriter, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Master
Servicer, the Servicer, the Special Servicer or any successor servicer to any
obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Indenture.

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register of
the Issuer. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of, or presentation of a
written instrument of transfer for, this Note at the office or agency designated
by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, accompanied by proper instruments of
assignment in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, one or more new Notes
of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate initial Note Principal
Balance, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

         Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner
of such Note (i) on the applicable Record Date for the purpose of making
payments and interest of such Note, and (ii) on any other date for all other
purposes whatsoever, as the owner hereof, whether or not this Note be overdue,
and neither the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee nor any such agent of the Issuer
or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any

Notes representing specified percentages of the aggregate Note Principal Balance

and its consequences. Any such waiver by the Holder, at the time of the giving
thereof, of this Note (or any one or more predecessor Notes) shall bind the
Holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or
waiver is made upon such Note. The Indenture also permits the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in
the Indenture without the consent of the Holders of the Notes issued thereunder.

         Initially, the Notes will be registered in the name of Cede & Co. as

Notes will be delivered by the clearing agency in denominations as provided in

         Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been executed by

         HomeBanc Mortgage Trust 2004-2 (the "Issuer"), a Delaware statutory
trust, for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co. or registered
assigns, the principal sum of ______________________________ ($___________) in
monthly installments on the twenty-fifth day of each month or, if such day is
not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day (each a "Payment Date"),
commencing in November 2004 and ending on or before the Payment Date occurring
in [ ] (the "Final Scheduled Payment Date") and to pay interest on the Note
Principal Balance of this Note (this "Note") outstanding from time to time as
provided below.

         This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of the Issuer's
Mortgage-Backed Notes, Series 2004-2 (the "Notes"), issued under an Indenture
dated as of October 29, 2004 (the "Indenture"), among the Issuer, Wells Fargo
Bank, National Association (the "Securities Administrator") and U.S. Bank
National Association, as indenture trustee (the "Indenture Trustee", which term
includes any successor Indenture Trustee under the Indenture), to which
Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a
statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture
Trustee, and the Holders of the Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are to
be authenticated and delivered. All terms used in this Note which are defined in
the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

         Payments of principal and interest on this Note will be made on each
Payment Date to the Noteholder of record as of the related Record Date. The
"Note Principal Balance" of a Note as of any date of determination is equal to
the initial Note Principal Balance thereof, reduced by the aggregate of all
amounts previously paid with respect to such Note on account of principal and
the aggregate amount of cumulative Realized Losses allocated to such Note on all
prior Payment Dates.

         The principal of, and interest on, this Note are due and payable as
described in the Indenture, in such coin or currency of the United States of
America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and
private debts. All payments made by the Issuer with respect to this Note shall
be equal to this Note's pro rata share of the aggregate payments on all Class
B-1 Notes as described above, and shall be applied as between interest and
principal as provided in the Indenture.

                                     A-3-2

<PAGE>

         All principal and interest accrued on the Notes, if not previously
paid, will become finally due and payable at the Final Scheduled Payment Date.

         The Notes are subject to redemption in whole, but not in part, by the
Holder of the Certificates, or, if there is no single Holder, the Majority
Certificateholder, on any Payment Date on or after the Payment Date on which the
aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than or
equal to 20% of aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as
of the Cut-off Date.

         The Issuer shall not be liable upon the indebtedness evidenced by the
Notes except to the extent of amounts available from the Trust Estate which
constitutes security for the payment of the Notes. The assets included in the
Trust Estate will be the sole source of payments on the Class B-1 Notes, and
each Holder hereof, by its acceptance of this Note, agrees that (i) such Note
will be limited in right of payment to amounts available from the Trust Estate
as provided in the Indenture and (ii) such Holder shall have no recourse to the
Issuer, the Securities Administrator, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee,
the Depositor, EMC Mortgage Corporation, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the
Special Servicer or any of their respective affiliates, or to the assets of any
of the foregoing entities, except the assets of the Issuer pledged to secure the
Class B-1 Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the rights conveyed by the Issuer
under the Indenture.

         Any payment of principal or interest payable on this Note which is
punctually paid on the applicable Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in
whose name such Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date
for such Payment Date by check mailed to such person's address as it appears in
the Note Register on such Record Date, except for the final installment of
principal and interest payable with respect to such Note, which shall be payable
as provided below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon written request with
appropriate instructions by the Holder of this Note delivered to the Indenture
Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date, any payment of
principal or interest, other than the final installment of principal or
interest, shall be made by wire transfer to an account in the United States
designated by such Holder. All scheduled reductions in the principal amount of a
Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) effected by payments of principal made
on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all Holders of this Note and of any
note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or
in lieu thereof, whether or not such payment is noted on such Note. The final
payment of this Note shall be payable upon presentation and surrender thereof on
or after the Payment Date thereof at the office designated by the Indenture
Trustee or the office or agency of the Issuer maintained by it for such purpose
pursuant to Section 3.02 of the Indenture.

         Subject to the foregoing provisions, each Note delivered under the
Indenture, upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any
other Note shall carry the right to unpaid principal and interest that were
carried by such other Note.

         If an Event of Default as defined in the Indenture shall occur and be
continuing with respect to the Notes, the Notes may become or be declared due
and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If any
such acceleration of maturity occurs prior to the payment of the entire unpaid
Note Principal Balance of the Notes, the amount payable to the Holder of this
Note will be equal to the sum of the unpaid Note Principal Balance of the Notes,

                                     A-3-3

<PAGE>

together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon as described in the Indenture.
The Indenture provides that, notwithstanding the acceleration of the maturity of
the Notes, under certain circumstances specified therein, all amounts collected
as proceeds of the Trust Estate securing the Notes or otherwise shall continue
to be applied to payments of principal of and interest on the Notes as if they
had not been declared due and payable.

         The Holder of this Note or Beneficial Owner of any interest herein is
deemed to represent that either (1) it is not acquiring the Note with Plan
Assets or (2) (A) the acquisition, holding and transfer of a Note will not give
rise to a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code and (B) the Notes are rated investment grade or better and such
person believes that the Notes are properly treated as indebtedness without
substantial equity features for purposes of the DOL Regulations, and agrees to
so treat the Notes. Alternatively, regardless of the rating of the Notes, such
person may provide the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee with an Opinion
of Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel will not be at the expense of the Issuer,
the Seller, any Underwriter, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the
Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Special
Servicer or any successor servicer which opines that the acquisition, holding
and transfer of such Note or interest therein is permissible under applicable
law, will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under
ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Issuer, the Seller,
the Depositor, any Underwriter, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the
Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Special Servicer or any successor servicer to
any obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Indenture.

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register of
the Issuer. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of, or presentation of a
written instrument of transfer for, this Note at the office or agency designated
by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, accompanied by proper instruments of
assignment in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, one or more new Notes
of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate initial Note Principal
Balance, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

         Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner
of such Note (i) on the applicable Record Date for the purpose of making
payments and interest of such Note, and (ii) on any other date for all other
purposes whatsoever, as the owner hereof, whether or not this Note be overdue,
and neither the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee nor any such agent of the Issuer
or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any
time by the Issuer and the Holders of a majority of all Notes at the time
outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of
Notes representing specified percentages of the aggregate Note Principal Balance
of the Notes on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive any past
Default under the Indenture and its consequences. Any such waiver by the Holder,
at the time of the giving thereof, of this

                                     A-3-4

<PAGE>

Note (or any one or more predecessor Notes) shall bind the Holder of every Note
issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu
hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon such
Note. The Indenture also permits the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to amend
or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture without the
consent of the Holders of the Notes issued thereunder.

         Initially, the Notes will be registered in the name of Cede & Co. as
nominee of DTC, acting in its capacity as the Depository for the Notes. The
Notes will be delivered by the clearing agency in denominations as provided in
the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth. The Notes
are exchangeable for a like aggregate initial Note Principal Balance of Notes of
different authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering
same.

         Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been executed by
the Indenture Trustee by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to
any benefit under the Indenture, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

         AS PROVIDED IN THE INDENTURE, THIS NOTE AND THE INDENTURE CREATING THIS
NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED THEREIN.
