Association, as master servicer under each of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement described below (in such capacity, the "Master Servicer") and as
securities administrator (in such capacity, the "Securities Administrator")
and Morgan Stanley Capital I Inc. (the "Depositor").

WHEREAS, on the respective transaction closing dates set forth on
Schedule 1 hereto, the Owner sold those certain mortgage loans in each Trust
identified on Schedule 2 attached hereto (the "Specified Mortgage Loans") to
the related Trust, each of which was formed pursuant to the related pooling
and servicing agreement described on Schedule 1 attached hereto (in each case,
the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement");

WHEREAS, in connection with the sale of the Specified Mortgage
Loans to the Trust, the Owner retained the right to service the Specified
Mortgage Loans (the "Servicing Rights");

WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain servicing agreement, dated as of
May 20, 2005 (the "Initial GMAC Flow Servicing Agreement"), by and between the
Owner and GMAC Mortgage Corporation ("GMAC"), as amended by the First Amended
and Restated Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2006 (the "Amended

Agreement, the "GMAC Flow Servicing Agreement") and as further modified by the
related Assignment, Assumption and Recognition Agreement identified on
Schedule 3 hereto, each dated as of the date of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, by and among the Owner, GMAC, and the Trustee, and acknowledged by
the Master Servicer and Securities Administrator and by the Depositor (each, a

Trust, the related "GMAC Servicing Agreement"), GMAC agreed to service the
Specified Mortgage Loans on behalf of each Trust pursuant to the terms of the
related GMAC Servicing Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Owner has exercised its right to terminate GMAC as
servicer under each GMAC Servicing Agreement (and GMAC has acknowledged each
such termination in writing) and to sell to the Servicer, and the Servicer
purchased from the Owner the Servicing Rights and agrees to service the
Specified Mortgage Loans, subject to the terms hereof and the terms (servicing
provisions only) of that certain Seller's Warranties and Servicing Agreement
(WFHM 2005-W102) attached as Exhibit I hereto, dated as of December 1, 2005,
by and between the Owner and the Servicer (the "SWSA"), as modified by this

Mortgage Loans in each Trust in accordance with the provisions of the Wells
Servicing Agreement;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
the Owner has obtained written consent from each Rating Agency that the
transfer of servicing from GMAC to Servicer will not result in a ratings
downgrade on the securities issued by the related transaction identified on
Schedule 1 hereto.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained
herein and other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency
of which are hereby acknowledged), the parties agree as follows:

1. Acknowledgement of Sale of Servicing Rights.

The Servicer and the Owner hereby acknowledge that, pursuant to
the Flow Servicing Rights Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of May 12,
2005, as amended, between the Owner, as seller, and the Servicer, as purchaser
(the "Purchase Agreement"), the Owner, as owner of all of the Servicing Rights
with respect to the Specified Mortgage Loans sold such Servicing Rights to the
Servicer.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Servicer purchased the
Servicing Rights with respect to the Specified Mortgage Loans and hereby
agrees to assume the servicing of the Specified Mortgage Loans from GMAC and
to service them for the benefit of each Trust listed on Schedule 1 hereto in
accordance with the provisions of the Wells Servicing Agreement as modified by
the provisions of this Agreement.

In connection with the transfer of the Servicing Rights, the
Servicer agrees that, from and after the applicable Servicing Transfer Date as
specified on Schedule 1 attached hereto (each, a "Servicing Transfer Date"),
each Specified Mortgage Loan will be subject to, and serviced by the Servicer
under, the Wells Servicing Agreement.

The Owner specifically reserves and does not assign to any Trust
listed on Schedule 1 hereunder those rights under the Wells Servicing
Agreement that do not relate to the servicing of the Specified Mortgage Loans
and any and all right, title and interest in, to and under and any obligations
of the Owner with respect to any mortgage loans subject to the Wells Servicing
Agreement which are not the Specified Mortgage Loans.

2. Recognition by the Servicer

The Servicer hereby acknowledges and agrees that from and after
the applicable Servicing Transfer Date, the Trust shall be considered the
"Purchaser" (as such term is defined in the SWSA), which term shall include,
with respect to the servicing of the Specified Mortgage Loans, the Master
Servicer acting on each Trust's behalf) and further agrees that each Trust
shall have all the rights and remedies available to the Purchaser, insofar as
they relate to the servicing of the Specified Mortgage Loans in that Trust,
under the Wells Servicing Agreement. Neither the Servicer nor the Owner shall
amend or agree to amend, modify, waive or otherwise alter any of the terms or
provisions of the Wells Servicing Agreement which amendment, modification,



2
<PAGE>


waiver or other alteration would in any way affect the Specified Mortgage
Loans in any Trust or the Servicer's performance under the Wells Servicing
Agreement with respect to the Specified Mortgage Loans in that Trust without
the prior written consent of the Master Servicer.

The Servicer hereby acknowledges that Wells Fargo Bank, National
Association has been appointed as the Master Servicer of the Mortgage Loans in
each Trust pursuant to the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement and,
therefore, has the right to enforce all obligations of the Servicer under the
Wells Servicing Agreement with respect to the Specified Mortgage Loans. Such
rights will include, without limitation except that they relate solely to the
Specified Mortgage Loans in each Trust, the right to terminate the Servicer
under the Wells Servicing Agreement upon the occurrence of an event of default
thereunder, the right to receive all remittances required to be made by the
Servicer under the Wells Servicing Agreement, the right to receive all monthly
reports and other data required to be delivered by the Servicer under the
Wells Servicing Agreement, the right to examine the books and records of the
Servicer, indemnification rights, except as otherwise specified herein, and
the right to exercise certain rights of consent and approval under the Wells
Servicing Agreement. The Servicer shall make all distributions under the Wells
Servicing Agreement required to be made to each Trust under this Agreement, to
the Master Servicer by wire transfer of immediately available funds to:

Wells Fargo Bank, National Association
ABA Number: 121-000-248
Account Name: Corporate Trust Clearing
Account number: 3970771416
For further credit to: [See Schedule 1 hereto]

Notwithstanding any statement to the contrary in Section 2 above,
the Servicer shall and does hereby acknowledge that the indemnification
provisions set forth in Section 3.03, Section 8.01 and Section 9.01(g) of the

each Trust (including the Trustee and the Master Servicer acting on that
Trust's behalf), as provided in the Wells Servicing Agreement.

warrants that this Agreement has been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by it and (assuming due
authorization, execution and delivery thereof by each
of the other parties hereto) constitutes its legal,
valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it
in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other similar laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by
general equitable principles (regardless of whether
such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in
equity or at law) and in the case of the Servicer,
laws affecting the contract obligations of insured
banks.

it has (i) a servicing rating in the highest category
