                   The Depositor intends to sell pass-through certificates

(collectively, the "Certificates"), to be issued hereunder in multiple classes,

which in the aggregate shall evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest

in each REMIC (as defined herein) created hereunder. The Trust Fund shall

consist of a segregated pool of assets consisting of the Mortgage Loans and

certain other related assets subject to this Agreement.

 

 

                                     REMIC I

                                     -------

 

                  As provided herein, the Trustee shall elect to treat the

segregated pool of assets consisting of the Mortgage Loans and certain other

related assets (other than any Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts, the

Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account, the Swap Account and the Interest Rate

Swap Agreement) subject to this Agreement as a REMIC for federal income tax

purposes, and such segregated pool of assets shall be designated as "REMIC I."

The Class R-I Interest shall be the sole class of "residual interests" in REMIC

I for purposes of the REMIC Provisions (as defined herein). The following table

irrevocably sets forth the designation, the REMIC I Remittance Rate, the initial

Uncertificated Balance and, for purposes of satisfying Treasury regulation
