As provided herein,
the REMIC Administrator will make an election to

to
this Agreement as a real estate mortgage investment conduit (a "REMIC") for
federal income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets will be

(1) The Class A-I, Class A-II, Class M and Class B Certificates
will represent
ownership of REMIC III
Regular Interests
together with certain rights to
payments to be made from amounts received under the Yield Maintenance
Agreement which will
be deemed made for federal income tax purposes outside
of REMIC III by the
holder of the Class SB
Certificates as the owner of the
Yield Maintenance
Agreement.
(2) The REMIC III Regular Interests ownership of which is represented by the
Class A-I, Class A-II, Class M and Class B Certificates, will accrue
interest at a per
annum rate equal to LIBOR plus the applicable Margin, each
subject to a payment
cap as described in
the definition
of "Pass-Through
Rate" and the
provisions for the
payment of Basis Risk
Shortfalls herein,
which payments will
not be part of the
entitlement of the REMIC III Regular
Interests related to
such Certificates.
(3) The Class A-I, Class A-II, Class M and Class B Certificates will also
entitle their holders to certain payments from the Holder of the
Class SB
Certificates from
amounts to which the related REMIC III Regular Interest is
entitled and from
amounts received under
the Yield Maintenance
Agreement,
which will not be a part of their ownership of the REMIC III Regular
Interests.
(4) The Class SB Certificates will accrue interest as described in the
definition of Accrued
Certificate Interest.
The Class SB

and an interest only
regular interest
designated REMIC III Regular Interest
SB-IO, which will be entitled to
distributions
as set forth
herein. The
rights of the Holder
of the Class SB Certificates to payments from the Yield
Maintenance
Agreement shall be outside and apart from

REMIC III Regular
Interests SB-IO and SB-PO.
In consideration
of the mutual agreements herein contained, the

one-tenth of 23% per annum of the then
outstanding Stated
Principal Balance
of
the fixed-rate Mortgage Loans in the first month of the

Full or (b) a Curtailment during the prior calendar
