"Underwriter")   Mortgage Asset-Backed   Pass-Through   Certificates,   Series [Deal
Name], Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, and Class R Certificates   (collectively,
the    "Certificates"),    other   than   a   de   minimis   portion   of   the   Class   R

forth above.   The   Certificates,   together with the Class M-1,   Class M-2, Class

pool (the "Pool") of conventional,   fixed-rate,   one- to four-family residential
first lien mortgage loans (the "Mortgage   Loans") as described in the Prospectus
Supplement   (as   hereinafter   defined) to be sold by the   Company.   A de minimis
portion of the Class R Certificates   will not be sold hereunder and will be held
by Residential Funding Company, LLC ("Residential Funding").

      The   Certificates   will be   issued   pursuant   to a pooling   and   servicing
agreement,   dated as of   [________]   [__],   200[__] (the   "Pooling and Servicing
Agreement"),   among the   Company,   as   seller,   Residential   Funding,   as master
servicer,   and   [_________],   as trustee (the   "Trustee").   The Certificates are
described more fully in the Base Prospectus and the Prospectus   Supplement (each
as hereinafter defined), which the Company has furnished to you.

      1. Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

             1.1 The   Company   represents   and   warrants   to, and agrees with you
      that:

                  (a) The Company   has filed with the   Securities   and   Exchange
            Commission   (the    "Commission")    a   registration    statement   (No.
             333-[_______]) on Form S-3 for the registration under the Securities
            Act of 1933,   as   amended   (the   "Act"),   of   Mortgage   Pass-Through
            Certificates (issuable in series), including the Certificates,

<PAGE>

            which   registration   statement has become   effective,   and a copy of
            which, as amended to the date hereof,   has heretofore been delivered
            to you. The Company proposes to file with the Commission pursuant to
            Rule 424(b) under the rules and regulations of the Commission   under
            the Act (the "1933 Act   Regulations")   a prospectus   supplement (the
            "Prospectus   Supplement"),   to the prospectus dated [________] [__],
            200[__] (the "Base   Prospectus"),   relating to the   Certificates and
            the method of distribution thereof. Such registration statement (No.
            333-[________])   including   exhibits   thereto   and   any   information
            incorporated therein by reference, as amended at the date hereof, is
            hereinafter   called   the   "Registration   Statement";   and   the   Base
            Prospectus   and   the   Prospectus    Supplement   and   any   information

            thereof or supplement   thereto authorized by the Company on or prior
            to the Closing Date (as defined   herein) for use in connection   with
            the   offering   of   the   Certificates,   are   hereinafter   called   the
            "Prospectus."   Any preliminary form of the Prospectus   Supplement to
            be filed   pursuant to Rule   424(b) is referred to as a   "Preliminary
            Prospectus   Supplement" and, together with the Base Prospectus,   and
             as amended or   supplemented   if the Company shall have furnished any
            amendments or supplements thereto, a "Preliminary Prospectus."

                  (b) The Registration   Statement has become effective,   and the
            Registration   Statement   as of the   effective   date (the   "Effective
            Date," as defined in this paragraph),   and the Prospectus, as of the
            date of the Prospectus Supplement, complied in all material respects
            with   the   applicable   requirements   of the   Act and   the   1933   Act
            Regulations;   and the   Registration   Statement,   as of the Effective
            Date,   did not contain any untrue   statement of a material   fact and
            did not   omit to state   any   material   fact   required   to be   stated
            therein or necessary to make the statements   therein not misleading;
            and each Issuer Free Writing   Prospectus   (as defined   herein) as of
            its date did not, and the Approved   Offering   Materials   (as defined
            herein) as of the date of the Approved   Offering   Materials   did not

            Designated Static Pool Information,   taken together,   as of the date
            of the Prospectus Supplement did not and as of the Closing Date will
            not,   contain an untrue statement of a material fact and did not and
            will not omit to state a material   fact   necessary   in order to make
             the   statements   therein,   in the light of the   circumstances   under
            which   they were   made,   not   misleading;   provided,   however,   that
            neither    the    Company    nor    Residential     Funding    makes    any
            representations or warranties as to the information   contained in or
            omitted   from the   Registration   Statement,   the   Approved   Offering
            Materials or the   Prospectus or any amendment   thereof or supplement
            thereto   relating   to   the   information   therein   that   is   Excluded
            Information (as defined herein); and provided, further, that neither
            the Company nor   Residential   Funding makes any   representations   or
            warranties   as to   either   (i)   any   information   contained   in   any
            Underwriter   Prepared   Issuer FWP (as defined herein) or Underwriter
            Free Writing   Prospectus (as defined herein) except, in each case to

            from the portions of the Approved   Offering   Materials or Prospectus
            identified by underlining or other   highlighting as shown in Exhibit

            and the time of the first   Contract of Sale (as   defined   herein) to
            which such Prospectus Supplement relates. The initial effective date
            of the Registration   Statement was within three years of the Closing
            Date. If the third   anniversary of the initial effective


                                       2
<PAGE>

            date occurs   within six months after the Closing   Date,   the Company
            will use best   efforts to take such   action as may be   necessary   or
            appropriate    to   permit   the   public    offering   and   sale   of   the
             Certificates as   contemplated   hereunder.   The Company   acknowledges
            that the Underwriter   Information   constitutes the only   information
            furnished in writing by you or on your behalf for use in   connection
            with the preparation of the Registration Statement,   any Preliminary
            Prospectus or the Prospectus,   and the Underwriter confirms that the

                  Statement    and    Prospectus    pursuant   to   Item   1105(d)   of
                  Regulation AB.

                        (v) "Excluded   Information"   shall mean, with respect to

            FWP,   except for any Excluded   Information   and to the extent of (x)
            any errors   therein   that are caused by errors or   omissions   in the

reimburse   the Company or   Residential   Funding   upon demand for (i) any and all

Company or   Residential   Funding as a result of a claim by the Internal   Revenue
Service   that   the   transfer   of the   Class R   Certificates   to the   Underwriter
hereunder or any transfer   thereof by the   Underwriter   may be   disregarded   for
federal   tax   purposes   and   (ii)   any   and   all   losses,   claims,   damages   and

            The Certificates referred to in these materials are being sold when,
            as and   if   issued.   The   issuer   is not   obligated   to   issue   such
            Certificates    or   any   similar    security   and   the    underwriter's
            obligation to deliver such   Certificates is subject to the terms and
            conditions   of the   underwriting   agreement   with the issuer and the
            availability   of such   Certificates   when,   as and if   issued by the
            issuer. You are advised that the terms of the Certificates,   and the
            characteristics   of the mortgage loan pool backing them,   may change
            (due,   among other things,   to the   possibility   that mortgage loans
            that comprise the pool may become   delinquent or defaulted or may be
            removed or replaced and that similar or different mortgage loans may
            be added to the pool,   and that one or more classes of   Certificates
            may be split, combined or eliminated), at any time prior to issuance
            or   availability   of   a   final   prospectus.   You   are   advised   that
            Certificates   may   not   be   issued   that   have   the   characteristics
            described in these materials.   The underwriter's   obligation to sell
             such   Certificates   to you is   conditioned on the mortgage loans and
            Certificates    having   the    characteristics    described    in   these
            materials.   If for any   reason   the   issuer   does not   deliver   such
            Certificates,   the   underwriter   will   notify   you,   and neither the
            issuer   nor any   underwriter   will   have   any   obligation   to you to
            deliver   all or any   portion   of the   Certificates   which   you   have
            committed   to purchase,   and none of the issuer nor any   underwriter
            will be liable for any costs or damages   whatsoever   arising from or
            related to such non-delivery.
