         The Certificates will be issued pursuant to a pooling and servicing
agreement (the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement") to be dated as of
________________________, 200_ (the "Cut-off Date") among the Company, as
seller, ______________________________, as master servicer ("Master Servicer"),
and ______________________________, as trustee (the "Trustee"). The Certificates
are described more fully in the Basic 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, 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 supplement dated ________________. 200_ (the
         "Prospectus Supplement"), to the prospectus dated ______________, 200_
         (the "Basic 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 Basic Prospectus and the Prospectus
         Supplement and any information incorporated therein by reference,
         together with any amendment thereof or supplement thereto authorized by
         the Company on or prior to the Closing Date for use in connection with
         the offering of the Certificates, are hereinafter called the
         "Prospectus". The Company prepared a Free Writing Prospectus containing
         substantially all information that will appear in the Prospectus
         Supplement and minus specific sections, including the "Method of
         Distribution" section (such Free Writing Prospectus, together with the
          Basic Prospectus, the "Definitive Free Writing Prospectus").

                  (b) The Registration Statement has become effective, and the
         Registration Statement as of the effective date (the "Effective Date"),
         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 the Prospectus, 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 the Company makes no
         representations or warranties as to the information contained in or
         omitted from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any
         amendment thereof or supplement thereto relating to the information
         identified in Exhibit D (the "Excluded Information"); and provided,
         further, that the Company makes no representations or warranties as to
         either (i) any information in any Computational Materials or ABS Term
         Sheets (each as hereinafter defined) required to be provided by the
         Underwriter to the Company pursuant to Section 4.2, except to the
         extent of any information set forth therein that constitutes Pool
         Information (as defined below), or (ii) as to any information contained
         in or omitted from the portions of the Prospectus identified in Exhibit
         E (the "Underwriter Information"). In addition, any Issuer Information
         (as defined below) contained in the Definitive Free Writing Prospectus,
         as of the date thereof and as of the time of each Contract of Sale
         occurring prior to the time that Prospectus Supplement first becomes
         available for use by the Underwriter, did not contain an untrue
         statement of a material fact and did 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. The Effective
         Date shall mean the earlier of the date by which the Prospectus
         Supplement is first used and the time of the first Contract of Sale to
         which such Prospectus Supplement relates. As used herein, "Pool
         Information" means information with respect to the characteristics of
         the Mortgage Loans and administrative and servicing fees, as provided
         by or on behalf of the Company to the Underwriter in final form and set
         forth in the Prospectus Supplement. The Company acknowledges that,
         except for any Computational Materials, 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 you
         confirm that the Underwriter Information is correct.

                  (c) The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly
         existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State
         of Delaware and has the requisite corporate power to own its properties
         and to conduct its business as presently conducted by it.

                  (d) The Company is not, as of the date upon which it delivers
         the Definitive Free Writing Prospectus, an Ineligible Issuer, as such
         term is defined in Rule 405 of the 1933 Act Regulations.

                  (e) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and
         delivered by the Company.

                  (f) As of the Closing Date (as defined herein), the
         Certificates and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement will conform in
         all material respects to the description thereof contained in the
         Prospectus and the representations and warranties of the Company in the
         Pooling and Servicing Agreement will be true and correct in all
         material respects.

         1.2 The Underwriter represents and warrants to and agrees with the
Company that:

                  (a) No purpose of the Underwriter relating to the purchase of
         any of the Class R Certificates by the Underwriter is or will be to
         enable the Company to impede the assessment or collection of any tax.

                  (b) The Underwriter has no present knowledge or expectation
         that it will be unable to pay any United States taxes owed by it so
         long as any of the Certificates remain outstanding.

                  (c) The Underwriter has no present knowledge or expectation
         that it will become insolvent or subject to a bankruptcy proceeding for
         so long as any of the Certificates remain outstanding.

                  (d) No purpose of the Underwriter relating to any sale of any
         of the Class R Certificates by the Underwriter will be to enable it to
         impede the assessment or collection of tax. In this regard, the
         Underwriter hereby represents to and for the benefit of the Company
         that the Underwriter intends to pay taxes associated with holding the
         Class R Certificates, as they become due, fully understanding that it
         may incur tax liabilities in excess of any cash flows generated by the
         Class R Certificates.

                  (e) The Underwriter will, in connection with any transfer it
         makes of any of the Class R Certificates, obtain from its transferee
         the affidavit required by Section 5.02(i)(B)(1) of the Pooling and
         Servicing Agreement, will not consummate any such transfer if it knows
         or believes that any representation contained in such affidavit is
         false and will provide the Trustee with the Certificate required by
         Section 5.02(i)(B)(2) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

                  (f) The Underwriter hereby certifies that (i) with respect to
         any classes of Certificates issued in authorized denominations or
         Percentage Interests of less than $25,000 or 20%, as the case may be,
         the fair market value of each such Certificate sold to any person on
         the date of initial sale thereof by the Underwriter will not be less
         than $100,000, and (ii) with respect to each class of Certificates to
         be maintained on the book-entry records of The Depository Trust Company
         ("DTC"), the interest in each such class of Certificates sold to any
         person on the date of initial sale thereof by the Underwriter shall not
         be less than an initial Certificate Principal Balance of $25,000.

                  (g) The Underwriter Represents that it has in place, and
         covenants that it shall maintain, internal controls and procedures
         which it reasonably believes to be sufficient to ensure full compliance
         with all applicable legal requirements with respect to the generation
         and use of Free Writing Prospectuses in connection with the offering of
         the Certificates.

                   (h) The Underwriter will use its best reasonable efforts to
         cause Cede & Co. to issue a commitment letter, prior to the Closing
         Date, to DTC stating that Cede & Co. will value the DTC Registered
         Certificates (hereinafter defined) on an ongoing basis subsequent to
         the Closing Date.

                  (i) The Underwriter will have funds available at
         __________________, in the Underwriter's account at such bank at the
         time all documents are executed and the closing of the sale of the
         Certificates is completed, except for the transfer of funds and the
         delivery of the Certificates. Such funds will be available for
         immediate transfer into the account of the Company maintained at such
         bank.

                  (j) As of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, the
         Underwriter has complied with all of its obligations hereunder. With
         respect to all Free Writing Prospectuses, other than the Definitive
         Free Writing Prospectus, provided by the Underwriter to any investor,
         if any, such Free Writing Prospectuses are accurate in all material
         respects (taking into account the assumptions explicitly set forth in
         the Free Writing Prospectuses, except to the extent of any errors
         therein that are caused by errors in the Pool Information, and except
         for any Issuer Information therein). The Free Writing Prospectuses,
         other than the Definitive Free Writing Prospectus, provided by the
         Underwriter to the Company pursuant to Section 4.4 constitute a
         complete set of all such Free Writing Prospectuses furnished to any
         investor by such Underwriter in connection with the offering of any
         Certificates, other than any Underwriter Derived Information.

         1.3 The Underwriter covenants and agrees to pay directly, or reimburse
the Company upon demand for (i) any and all taxes (including penalties and
interest) owed or asserted to be owed by the Company as a result of a claim by
the Internal Revenue Service that the transfer of any 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 liabilities, including attorney's fees and expenses,
arising out of any failure of the Underwriter to make payment or reimbursement
in connection with any such assertion as required in (i) above. In addition, the
Underwriter acknowledges that on the Closing Date immediately after the
transactions described herein it will be the owner of the Class R Certificates
for federal tax purposes, and the Underwriter covenants that it will not assert
in any proceeding that the transfer of the Class R Certificates from the Company
to the Underwriter should be disregarded for any purpose.

         2. PURCHASE AND SALE. Subject to the terms and conditions and in
reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Company
agrees to sell to you, and you agree to purchase from the Company, the
Certificates (other than for a de minimis portion of the Class R Certificates,
which shall be transferred by the Company to the Trustee) at a price equal to
___% of the aggregate principal balance of the Certificates as of the Closing
Date. There will be added to the purchase price of the Certificates an amount
equal to interest accrued thereon from the Cut-off Date to but not including the
Closing Date. The purchase price for the Certificates was agreed to by the
Company in reliance upon the transfer from the Company to the Underwriter of the
tax liabilities associated with the ownership of the Class R Certificates.

         3. DELIVERY AND PAYMENT. Delivery of and payment for the Certificates
shall be made at the office of Thacher Proffitt & Wood LLP at 10:00 a.m., New
York time, on ____________, 200__ or such later date as you shall designate,
which date and time may be postponed by agreement between you and the Company
(such date and time of delivery and payment for the Certificates being herein
called the "Closing Date"). Delivery of the Certificates (except for the Class R
Certificates (the "Definitive Certificates")) shall be made to you through the
Depository Trust Company ("DTC") (such Certificates, the "DTC Registered
Certificates"), and delivery of the Definitive Certificates shall be made in
registered, certified form, in each case against payment by you of the purchase
price thereof to or upon the order of the Company by wire transfer in
immediately available funds. The Definitive Certificates shall be registered in
such names and in such denominations as you may request not less than two
business days in advance of the Closing Date. The Company agrees to have the
Definitive Certificates available for inspection, checking and packaging by you
in New York, New York not later than 1:00 p.m. on the business day prior to the
Closing Date.

         4. OFFERING BY UNDERWRITER.

         4.1 It is understood that the Underwriter propose to offer the
Certificates for sale to the public as set forth in the Prospectus and that the
Underwriter will not offer, sell or otherwise distribute the Certificates
(except for the sale thereof in exempt transactions) in any state in which the
Certificates are not exempt from registration under Blue Sky laws or state
securities laws (except where the Certificates will have been qualified for
offering and sale at your direction under such Blue Sky laws or state securities
laws). Prior to the date of the first contract of sale made based on the
Definitive Free Writing Prospectus, you have not offered, pledged, sold,
disposed of or otherwise transferred any Certificate or any security backed by
the Mortgage Loans, any interest in any Certificate or such security or any
Mortgage Loan except as set forth in Section 4.2.

         4.2 It is understood that the Underwriter will solicit offers to
purchase the Certificates as follows:

                  (a) Prior to the time you have received the Definitive Free
         Writing Prospectus you may, in compliance with the provisions of this
         Agreement, solicit offers to purchase Certificates; provided, that you
         shall not accept any such offer to purchase a Certificate or any
          interest in any Certificate or Mortgage Loan or otherwise enter into
         any Contract of Sale for any Certificate, any interest in any
         Certificate or any Mortgage Loan prior to the investor's receipt of
         Definitive Free Writing Prospectus.

                  (b) Any Free Writing Prospectus (other than the Definitive
         Free Writing Prospectus) relating to the Certificates used by the
         Underwriter in compliance with the terms of this Agreement prior to the
         time such Underwriter has entered into a Contract of Sale for
         Certificates shall prominently set forth substantially the following
         statement:

                  The information in this free writing prospectus is
                  preliminary, and will be superseded by the
                  Definitive Free Writing Prospectus. This free
                  writing prospectus is being delivered to you solely
                  to provide you with information about the offering
                  of the Certificates referred to in this free writing
                  prospectus and to solicit an offer to purchase the
                  Certificates, when, as and if issued. Any such offer
                  to purchase made by you will not be accepted and
                   will not constitute a contractual commitment by you
                  to purchase any of the Certificates until we have
                  accepted your offer to purchase Certificates. We
                  will not accept any offer by you to purchase
                  Certificates, and you will not have any contractual
                  commitment to purchase any of the Certificates until
                  after you have received the Definitive Free Writing
                  Prospectus. You may withdraw your offer to purchase
                  Certificates at any time prior to our acceptance of
                  your offer.

         "Written Communication" has the same meaning as that term is defined in
Rule 405 of the 1933 Act Regulations.

                  (c) Any Free Writing Prospectus relating to Certificates and
         used by the Underwriter in connection with marketing the Certificates,
         including the Definitive Free Writing Prospectus, shall prominently set
         forth substantially the following statement:

                  (d) The Certificates referred to in these materials are being
         sold when, as and if issued. You are advised that Certificates may not
         be issued that have the characteristics described in these materials.
         Our 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 we do not deliver such Certificates,
         we 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.

         4.3 It is understood that you will not enter into a Contract of Sale
with any investor until the investor has received the Definitive Free Writing
Prospectus. For purposes of this Agreement, Contract of Sale has the same
meaning as in Rule 159 of the 1933 Act Regulations and all Commission guidance
relating to Rule 159, including without limitation the Commission's statement in
Securities Act Release No. 33-8501 that "a contract of sale can occur under the
federal securities laws before there is a bilateral contract under state law,
for example when a purchaser has taken all actions necessary to be bound but a
seller's obligations remain conditional under state law." The Definitive Free
Writing Prospectus shall prominently set forth the following statement:

                  This Definitive Free Writing Prospectus supersedes
                  the information in any free writing prospectus
                  previously delivered in connection with this
                  offering, to the extent that this Definitive Free
                  Writing Prospectus is inconsistent with any
                  information in any free writing prospectus delivered
                  in connection with this offering.

         4.4 It is understood that you may prepare and provide to prospective
investors certain Free Writing Prospectuses (as defined below), subject to the
following conditions:

                   (a) Unless preceded or accompanied by a prospectus satisfying
         the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Act, the Underwriter shall not
         convey or deliver any Written Communication to any person in connection
         with the initial offering of the Certificates, unless such Written
         Communication either (i) is made in reliance on Rule 134 under the Act,
         (ii) constitutes a prospectus satisfying the requirements of Rule 430B
         under the Act, (iii) is the Definitive Free Writing Prospectus, or (iv)
         both (1) constitutes a Free Writing Prospectus (as defined below) used
         in reliance on Rule 164 and (2) includes only information that is
         within the definition of ABS Informational and Computational Materials
         as defined in Item 1100 of Regulation AB.

                  (b) The Underwriter shall comply in all material respects with
         all applicable laws and regulations in connection with the use of Free
         Writing Prospectuses, including but not limited to Rules 164 and 433 of
         the 1933 Act Regulations and all Commission guidance relating to Free
         Writing Prospectuses, including but not limited to Commission Release
         No. 33-8591.

                   (c) For purposes hereof, "Free Writing Prospectus" shall have
         the meaning given such term in Rules 405 and 433 of the 1933 Act
         Regulations. "Issuer Information" shall mean information included in a
         Free Writing Prospectus that both (i) is within the types of
         information specified in clauses (1) to (5) of footnote 271 of
         Commission Release No. 33-8591 (Securities Offering Reform) as shown in
         Exhibit G hereto and (ii) has been either prepared by, or has been
         reviewed and approved by, the Company as evidenced by oral, electronic
         or written communication by it or through its attorneys. "Underwriter
         Derived Information" shall refer to information of the type described
         in clause (5) of such footnote 271 when prepared by the Underwriter.

                  (d) All Free Writing Prospectuses provided to prospective
         investors, whether or not filed with the Commission, shall bear a
         legend on each page including the following statement:

                  "THE DEPOSITOR HAS FILED A REGISTRATION STATEMENT
                  (INCLUDING A PROSPECTUS) WITH THE SEC FOR THE
                  OFFERING TO WHICH THIS COMMUNICATION RELATES. BEFORE
                  YOU INVEST, YOU SHOULD READ THE PROSPECTUS IN THAT
                  REGISTRATION STATEMENT AND OTHER DOCUMENTS THE
                  ISSUER HAS FILED WITH THE SEC FOR MORE COMPLETE
                  INFORMATION ABOUT THE ISSUER AND THE OFFERING. YOU
                   MAY GET THESE DOCUMENTS AT NO CHARGE BY VISITING
                  EDGAR ON THE SEC WEB SITE AT WWW.SEC.GOV.
                  ALTERNATIVELY, THE ISSUER, ANY UNDERWRITER OR ANY
                  DEALER PARTICIPATING IN THE OFFERING WILL ARRANGE TO
                   SEND YOU THE PROSPECTUS AT NO CHARGE IF YOU REQUEST
                  IT BY CALLING TOLL-FREE 1-8[XX-XXX-XXXX].

The Company shall have the right to require additional specific legends or
notations to appear on any Free Writing Prospectus, the right to require changes
regarding the use of terminology and the right to determine the types of
information appearing therein.

                  (e) The Underwriter shall have delivered to the Company, no
         later than two business days prior to the proposed date of first use
         thereof, (i) any Free Writing Prospectus prepared by or on behalf of
         that Underwriter that contains any information that, if reviewed and
         approved by the Company, would be Issuer Information, and (ii) any Free
         Writing Prospectus or portion thereof that contains only a description
         of the final terms of the Certificates after such terms have been
         established for all classes of Certificates being publicly offered. No
          Information in any Free Writing Prospectus shall consist of information
         of a type that is not included within the definition of ABS
         Informational and Computational Materials. To facilitate filing to the
         extent required by Section 5.10 or 5.11, as applicable, all Underwriter
         Derived Information shall be set forth in a document separate from the
         document including Issuer Information. All Free Writing Prospectuses
         prepared by the Underwriter that are required to be delivered to the
         Company under this subsection (e), (i) must be approved by the Company
         before such Underwriter provides the Free Writing Prospectus to
         investors pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (such approval to be
         evidenced as set forth in Section 4.4(c)(ii)), and (ii) shall be
         provided by such Underwriter to the Company, for filing as provided in
         Section 5.10 in the format as required by the Company.

                  (f) None of the information in the Free Writing Prospectuses
         may conflict with the information contained in the Prospectus or the
         Registration Statement.

                  (g) The Company shall not be obligated to file any Free
         Writing Prospectuses that have been determined to contain any material
         error or omission, unless the Company is required to file the Free
         Writing Prospectus pursuant to Section 5.10 below. In the event that
         the Underwriter possesses actual knowledge that, as of the date on
         which an investor entered into an agreement to purchase any
         Certificates, any Free Writing Prospectus prepared by or on behalf of
         such Underwriter and delivered to such investor contained any untrue
         statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact
         necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in light
         of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (such
         Free Writing Prospectus, a "Defective Free Writing Prospectus"), that
         Underwriter shall notify the Company thereof as soon as practical but
         in any event within one business day after discovery.

                  (h) If the Underwriter do not provide any Free Writing
         Prospectuses to the Company pursuant to subsection (e) above, the
         Underwriter shall be deemed to have represented, as of the Closing
         Date, that they did not provide any prospective investors with any
         information in written or electronic form in connection with the
         offering of the Certificates that is required to be filed with the
         Commission by the Company as a Free Writing Prospectus (other than the
         Definitive Free Writing Prospectus) in accordance with the 1933 Act
         Regulations. Information not required to be filed shall include a Free
         Writing Prospectus containing solely Underwriter Derived Information.

                  (i) In the event of any delay in the delivery by the
         Underwriter to the Company of any Free Writing Prospectuses required to
         be delivered in accordance with subsection (e) above, or in the
         delivery of the accountant's comfort letter in respect thereof, the
         Company shall have the right to delay the release of the Prospectus to
         investors or to the Underwriter, to delay the Closing Date and to take
         other appropriate actions in each case as necessary in order to allow
         the Company to comply with its agreement set forth in Section 5.10 to
         file the Free Writing Prospectuses by the time specified therein.

                  (j) The Underwriter represents that it has in place, and
         covenants that it shall maintain internal controls and procedures which
         it reasonably believes to be sufficient to ensure full compliance with
         all applicable legal requirements of the 1933 Act Regulations with
         respect to the generation and use of Free Writing Prospectuses in
         connection with the offering of the Certificates. In addition, the
         Underwriter shall, for a period of at least three years after the date
         hereof, maintain written and/or electronic records of the following:

                            (i) Any written communications in respect of the
                  Certificates not deemed a Prospectus or a Free Writing
                  Prospectus because its content is limited to the statements
                  permitted by Rule 134 of the Securities Act;

                           (ii) any Free Writing Prospectus used to solicit
                  offers to purchase Certificates;

                           (iii) regarding each Free Writing Prospectus
                  delivered to a prospective investor, the date of such delivery
                  and identity of such prospective investor;

                           (iv) regarding each offer to purchase Certificates
                  received by such Underwriter, the identity of the offeror, the
                  date the offer was made and the proposed terms and allocation
                  of the Certificates offered to be purchased; and

                           (v) regarding each Contract of Sale entered into by
                  such Underwriter, the date, identity of the investor and the
                  terms of such Contract of Sale, including the amount and price
                  of Certificates subject to such Contract of Sale.

                  (k) The Underwriter covenants with the Company that after the
         final Prospectus is available that Underwriter shall not distribute any
         written information concerning the Certificates to a prospective
         investor unless such information is preceded or accompanied by the
         final Prospectus.

                  (l) The Underwriter agrees to provide written notice to the
         Company of the date it first enters into any Contract of Sale for a

extent that the Company, in its sole discretion, waives such requirements.

         4.7 In the event that the Underwriter uses a road show (as defined in
Rule 433) in connection with the offering of the Certificates, all information
in the road show will be provided orally only, and not as a Written
