                  Insured after breach by the Borrower of a due-on-sale
                  provision in the Loan, granting the Insured the right to
                  accelerate the Loan upon transfer of title to, or an interest
                  in, the Property and to institute Appropriate Proceedings.

            Violation by the Borrower of any other term or condition of the
            Loan which is a basis for Appropriate Proceedings shall not be
            considered to be a Default.

            A Loan is deemed to be in Default for that month as of the close of
            business on the installment due date for which a scheduled monthly
            or other regular periodic payment has not been made or as of the
            close of business on the due date stated in the notice of
            acceleration given pursuant to the due-on-sale provision in the

            such basis for Appropriate Proceedings remains. For example, a Loan
            is "four (4) months in Default" if the monthly installments due on
            January 1 through April 1 remain unpaid as of the close of business
            on April 1 or if a basis for acceleration and Appropriate
            Proceedings exists for a continuous period of four months.

            Property or of the earth or water subjacent to the Property or of
            the atmosphere above the Property; or the presence, on or under a
            Property, of any "Hazardous Substance" as that term is defined by
            the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and
            Liability Act (42 U.S.C. Sec. 9601 et. seq., as amended from time
            to time) or as defined by any similar state law, or of any
            "Hazardous Waste" or "Regulated Substance" as those terms are
            defined by the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (42
            U.S.C. sec. 6901, et seq., as amended from time to time) or as
            defined by any similar state law. Environmental Condition does not
            mean the presence of radon, lead paint, or asbestos.

            respect to the Collateral securing a Loan, the title to both the
            Collateral and the Property), free and clear of all liens,
            encumbrances, covenants, conditions, restrictions, easements and
            rights of redemption, except for any of the following or as
            permitted in writing by the Company:

            (d)   Any other impediments which will not have a materially
                  adverse effect on either the transferability of the Property
                  or the sale thereof (or, if applicable, the transferability
                  or sale of the Collateral) to a bona fide purchaser.

            Good and Merchantable Title will not exist if (i) there is any lien

            been given of commencement of proceedings which could result in
            such a lien, or (ii) there are limitations on ingress and egress to
            the Property or on use of utilities. Any action or proceeding after

            acquired Good and Merchantable Title.

      1.18  Insured means:

            under this Policy. For purposes of the Policy, the term "Servicer"
            shall include the master servicer for a Loan of whom the Company
            has been notified, as well as any servicer acting on behalf of the
            master servicer of whom the Company has been notified. References
            in this Policy to a Servicer's obligations will not be construed as
            relieving the Insured or its designee of responsibility for the
            Servicer's performance.

      1.34  Settlement Period means the sixty (60) day period as determined
            under Section 6.4, at the end of the which a Loss is payable by the
            Company; provided that if the Company pays a Loss prior to
            expiration of such sixty (60) day period, the Settlement Period
            ends with such payment.

      1.35  Value means the lesser of the sales price of a Property (only
            applicable in the case of a Loan to finance the purchase of such
            Property) or the value of the Property as determined from an
            appraisal or other method of valuation, as set forth in the
            Certificate.

      Any pronouns, when used in this Policy, will mean the singular or plural,
      masculine or feminine, as the case may be.

2     Obtaining Coverage and Payment of Premiums

      2.1   Obtaining Coverage - This Policy shall extend to each Loan which
            the Insured submits for coverage under this Policy, provided that
            it is made in accordance with the terms and provisions of this
            Policy, including the Eligibility Criteria, and is accepted for
            insurance by the Company, as evidenced by a Certificate issued by
            the Company. In order to obtain coverage under this Policy for a
            Loan, the Insured or the Person acting on its behalf must submit a
            duly completed Application to the Company and notify the Company of
            the Servicer of the Loan, all of which must be acceptable to the
            Company. If all applicable requirements are satisfied, extension of
            coverage to a Loan under this Policy shall be evidenced by issuance
            of a Certificate Number on the Certificate Schedule.

      2.2   Representations of the Insured - The Insured represents that:

            (a)   all statements made and information provided to the Company
                  in the Application (including as such is related to
                  continuation of coverage upon assumption of a Loan) are
                  supported by statements and information in the Loan File;

            (b)   all statements made and information in the Application when
                  provided to the Company are not false in any material respect
                  as of the date provided; and

            (c)   the Loan complies with the Eligibility Criteria, if any,
                  applicable to the Loan. For purposes of this subparagraph
                  (c), Section 2.4 of this Policy shall not apply to a
                  determination as to whether a Loan complies with the
                  Eligibility Criteria.

            The foregoing representations will apply to all statements and
            information provided to the Company in the Application, whether
            made or submitted by the Insured, the Borrower or any other Person,
            and will be deemed to have been made and provided for and on behalf
            of the Insured. The foregoing representations shall be effective
            whether or not they are made by the Insured or other Person with
            the intent to deceive or mislead, or with the knowledge that they
            are not true and correct.

            It is understood and agreed that such statements and information in
            the Application in the aggregate are, and in certain instances
            individually may be, material to the Company's decision to offer or
            provide coverage of the related Loan; the Company issues the
            related Certificate in reliance on the accuracy and completeness of
            such statements and information submitted to it; and the Company's
            reliance on the representations in this Section 2.2 survive the
            issuance of a Certificate or such continuation of coverage and any
            later review or audit of the Insured's files by the Company.

      2.3   Company's Remedies for Misrepresentation - Subject to Section 2.4,
            if any of the Insured's representations as described in Section 2.2
            are materially false with respect to a Loan, the Company will have,
            at its option, the right to defend against a Claim, or to the
            extent permitted by applicable law, to cancel or rescind coverage
            for such Loan under the Certificate retroactively to commencement
            of coverage (or if the misrepresentation occurs with respect to
            continuation of coverage upon assumption of a Loan, to so defend,
            cancel or rescind retroactively to the date of such continuation).
            In the case of such cancellation or rescission, the Company shall
            return at that time all paid premiums for such Loan retroactively
            to such applicable date.


      2.4   Incontestability for Certain Misrepresentations --- Notwithstanding
            Sections 2.2 or 2.3, no Claim for Loss will be denied or adjusted,
            nor will the Certificate's coverage be rescinded or canceled, by
            reason of any misrepresentations contained in an Application,
            provided that all of the following requirements, conditions and
            circumstances, to the extent not waived in writing at the option of
            the Company, are satisfied:

            (a)   The misrepresentation must not have been:

                  (1)   knowingly made, or knowingly participated in, by

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form #71-70283 (2/05)                                              Page 5 of 21

<PAGE>

                        (i)   the Insured or any other Person which originated
                              the Loan;

                        (ii)  a correspondent lender, mortgage loan broker or
                              other intermediary underwriting or processing the
                              Loan on behalf of the Insured or any other Person
                              which originated the Loan; or

                        (iii) an escrow or closing agent, or any other agent
                              of, or broker for, the Insured or any other
                              Person which originated the Loan acting with
                              respect to the Loan or the related Property
                              transaction; or

                  (2)   made, whether or not knowingly, by an appraiser,
                        provider of an automated valuation model, or any other
                        Person providing a valuation of the Property that is
                        used in underwriting, processing or originating the
                        Loan and that is submitted to the Company for the
                        purpose of establishing the Value of the Property.

            (b)   This Section 2.4 shall not be construed to limit the
                  applicability of Section 4.5(b) to a misrepresentation which
                  is subject to this Section 2.4, except to the extent
                  otherwise agreed to in writing by the Company and the
                  Insured.

            (c)   The Company's payment of a Claim will not limit any rights
                  which the Company has against the Borrower or any other
                  Person (other than the Insured) for any misrepresentation.

      2.5   Initial Premium and Term of Coverage - Within fifteen (15) days
            from the Certificate Effective Date, or such other date as the
            Company and the Insured may agree to in writing, the Insured must
            forward to the Company the appropriate initial premium. Payment of
            the initial premium shall be a condition precedent to coverage
            being extended to the Loan. Subject to cancellation by the Insured
            or the Company as provided in this Policy, coverage shall remain in
            full force and effect for the period covered by the initial
            premium.

      2.6   Renewal of Certificate and Termination for Non-Payment of Renewal
            Premium - The Insured is obligated to continue coverage in effect
            and pay any premium which is due, as required by Section 2.7 of
            this Policy. The entire premium for all Loans (including all Loans
            then in Default) must be paid within a forty-five (45) day grace
            period (or such longer grace period generally allowed by the
            Company) after the due date for payment. Upon payment of the entire
            premium for all Loans within such grace period, this Policy will be
            in effect for the applicable period of coverage and a Default on a
            Loan occurring within said grace period which is not cured, and
            which results in a Claim being filed, will be covered. If the
            entire premium for all Loans is not paid within the grace period,
            at the option of the Company, the coverage of this Policy and the
            Company's liability as to all Loans will terminate effective as of
            12:01 a.m. on the first day following the date through which the
            applicable premium has been paid and as a result, any future
            Defaults on any of the Loans will not be covered under this Policy.

            If the applicable premium on a Loan in Default has been paid for a
            renewal term following the renewal term during which such Default
            occurred, and if such Default is not cured and results in a Claim,
            such premium paid shall be refunded in connection with the
            settlement of the Claim. If such premium on such Loan in Default is
            not paid, coverage on such Loan shall be cancelled retroactive to
            the date through which the premium has been paid, but a Claim
            resulting from a Default which occurred before the date through
            which the applicable premium has been paid shall be covered,
            subject to the terms and conditions of this Policy.

      2.7   Special Procedures for Receipt and Deposit of Initial and Renewal
            Premiums - The Insured acknowledges that the Company deposits
            initial and renewal premium checks immediately upon receipt and
            agrees that the receipt and deposit of a premium check by the
            Company after the time specified in this Policy for receipt, does
            not constitute a waiver of the requirements of this Policy for
            timely receipt or an acceptance of premium by the Company. The
            Company will have the right to return such late premium payment, but
            only within sixty (60) days after receipt, in which case coverage of
            all Loans (including all Loans then in Default) will be cancelled
            retroactively to the Certificate Effective Date for a late initial
            premium, or to the last day of the period covered by the previous
            premium payment for a late renewal premium. Receipt, deposit and
            retention of a premium check will not constitute a waiver of any
            defenses with respect to any other matters which the Company may
            have under this Policy.

      2.8   Cancellation by the Insured of a Certificate - Notwithstanding any
            provision to the contrary in this Policy, the Insured shall be
            obligated to maintain coverage of a Certificate for a Loan (and to
            pay corresponding premiums for continuation of such coverage for
            each month or partial month coverage is in effect) unless or until
            (a) the Loan is paid in full or (b) the ratio of the outstanding
            principal balance of the Loan to the Value (as defined in Section
            1.35 of this Policy) of the Property securing the Loan is at least
            five (5) percentage points less than the Original LTV minus the
            product of the Per Loan Loss Percentage and the Original LTV for
            such Loan under this Policy or (c) otherwise permitted in writing
            by the Company. Subject to the foregoing obligation of the Insured
            to maintain coverage, the Insured may obtain cancellation of
            coverage on a Loan by making a written notification in the case of
            (a) or (b) above or a written request in the case of (c) above.
            However, no refund will be paid upon cancellation of coverage on a
            Loan. Cancellation of coverage on a Loan will not cancel this
            Policy.

      2.9   Cancellation of Policy - Either the Insured or the Company may
            cancel their respective right or obligation to receive or issue new
            Certificates immediately upon written notice of cancellation of
            this Policy. However, Certificates issued prior to such
            cancellation of this Policy will continue in force so long as all
            premiums are paid and all other terms and conditions of this Policy
            for coverage are complied with by the Insured.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the Insured's option, the Insured
            may cancel coverage on all, but not less than all, Loans (which
            must include all Loans in Default), if the financial strength
            rating of the Company is either withdrawn or downgraded below "AA-"
            by Standard & Poor's Rating Services or "Aa3" by Moody's Investors
            Service. Upon cancellation of this Policy as provided herein, no
            refund of premium will be paid and the Company shall have no
            liability for any Default existing at the time of cancellation
            other than Defaults on Loans for which a Claim had been filed in
            accordance with Section 6.1 of this Policy prior to the date of
            cancellation of coverage.

      2.10  Cancellation of Policy and Coverage of Loans Upon Termination of
            Security or Removal of Loans from Security - Except as otherwise
            specified below, in the event that

            (a)   the bonds, certificates or other security instruments
                  designated or referred to in this Policy as the Security are
                  redeemed, paid in full, cancelled or otherwise terminated, or
                  the trust created in connection with the issuance of the
                  Security is terminated for any reason (individually, a
                  "Redemption"), or

            (b)   there are no longer any Loans that are security for, or
                  represented by, the Security,

            this Policy and the coverage of all Loans under this Policy shall
            automatically be terminated without further action being required
            by either the Insured or the Company, and the Company shall have no
            liability for any Default existing at the time of cancellation,
            other than Defaults on Loans for which a Claim had been filed in
            accordance with Section 6.1 of this Policy prior to the date of
            termination of coverage.
