ARTICLE I
DEFINITIONS
SECTION
1.01 Defined Terms.
Whenever used in this Agreement, including, without
limitation, in the Preliminary Statement
hereto, the following words and

requires, shall have the meanings
specified in this Article. Unless otherwise
specified, all
5
<PAGE>
calculations described herein shall be made
on the basis of a 360-day year
consisting of twelve 30-day months.
"Adjustable-Rate Mortgage Loan": Each Group I Mortgage Loan
and each Group II Mortgage Loan.
"Adjusted Rate Cap": With respect to the Group I Certificates
and any Distribution Date, the excess, if
any, of the Pass-Through Rate for such
Certificates for such Distribution Date
over a fraction expressed as a
percentage, the numerator of which is equal
to (x) 12 times the amount of the
Net Deferred Interest for that Distribution
Date, and the denominator of which
is the aggregate principal balance of the
Group I Mortgage Loans (prior to
taking into account scheduled payments due
during the related Due Period and
unscheduled collections during the related
Prepayment Period).
"Adjustment Amount": With respect to each Collateral Pool and
each anniversary of the Cut-off Date, an
amount equal to the greatest of (i)
1.00% multiplied by the aggregate
outstanding principal balance of the related
Mortgage Loans, (ii) the aggregate
outstanding principal balance of the related
Mortgage Loans secured by Mortgaged
Properties located in the California postal
zip code area in which the highest
percentage of related Mortgage Loans based on
outstanding principal balance are located
and (iii) two times the outstanding
principal balance of the related Mortgage
Loan having the largest outstanding
principal balance, in each case as of such
anniversary of the Cut-off Date.
"Adjustment Date": With respect to each Adjustable-Rate
Mortgage Loan, the first day of the month
in which the Mortgage Rate of a
Mortgage Loan changes pursuant to the
related Mortgage Note. The first
Adjustment Date following the Cut-off Date
as to each Mortgage Loan is set forth
in the Mortgage Loan Schedule.
"Administration Fee": With respect to each Mortgage Loan and
for any calendar month, an amount equal to
one month's interest (or in the event
of any payment of interest which
accompanies a Principal Prepayment in full made
by the Mortgagor during such calendar
month, interest for the number of days
covered by such payment of interest) at the
applicable Administration Fee Rate
on the same principal amount on which
interest on such Mortgage Loan accrues for
such calendar month.
"Administration Fee Rate": With respect to the Group I
Mortgage Loans and the Group II Mortgage
Loans, 0.0200% per annum. With respect
to the Group III Mortgage Loans, 0.0025%
per annum.
"Affiliate": With respect to any specified Person, any other
Person controlling or controlled by or
under common control with such specified
Person. For the purposes of this
definition, "control" when used with respect to
any specified Person means the power to
direct the management and policies of
such Person, directly or indirectly,
whether through the ownership of voting
securities, by contract or otherwise and
the terms "controlling" and
"controlled" have meanings correlative to
the foregoing.
6
<PAGE>
"Aggregate Senior Percentage": With respect to any
Distribution Date and the Group I Senior
Certificates, the lesser of (a) 100%

percentage, the numerator of which is the
aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of
the Group I Senior Certificates for
such Distribution Date and the denominator
of which is the sum of (i) the
aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of
the Group I Mortgage Loans, plus (ii)
the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance
of the REO Properties in Loan Group I,
in each case before reduction for any
Realized Losses on such Distribution Date.
