Pool I,$__________ in Pool II and $______ in Pool III.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained
herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of
which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
Section 1. Definitions. For the purposes of this Subsequent Transfer
Agreement, capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have
the respective meanings assigned to such terms in Appendix I to the Indenture.
Section 2. Sale, Assignment and Transfer. In consideration of the
receipt of $__________ (such amount being approximately 100% of the Aggregate
Principal Balance of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans) from the Unaffiliated
Seller, each of the Originators hereby sells, assigns and transfers to the
Unaffiliated Seller, without recourse, all of their respective right, title and
interest in, to, and under the Subsequent Mortgage Loans and related assets
described above, whether now existing or hereafter arising.
In consideration of receipt of $__________ (such amount being
approximately 100% of the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Subsequent Mortgage
Loans) from the Depositor, the Unaffiliated Seller hereby sells, assigns and
transfers to the Depositor, without recourse, all of its right, title and
interest in, to, and under the Subsequent Mortgage Loans and related assets
described above, whether now existing or hereafter arising.
In connection with each such sale, assignment and transfer, the
Originators and the Unaffiliated Seller shall satisfy the document delivery
requirements set forth in Section 2.05 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement with
respect to each Subsequent Mortgage Loan.
Section 3. Representations and Warranties of the Originators and the
Unaffiliated Seller. With respect to each Subsequent Mortgage Loan, each of the
Originators and the Unaffiliated Seller hereby remake each of the
representations, warranties and covenants made by the Originators and the
Unaffiliated Seller in Section 3.03 of the Unaffiliated Seller's Agreement, on
which the Depositor relies in accepting the Subsequent Mortgage Loans. Such
representations and warranties speak as of the Subsequent Transfer Date unless
otherwise indicated, and shall survive each sale, assignment, transfer and
conveyance of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans to the Depositor.
Each of the Originators and the Unaffiliated Seller hereby acknowledge
that the Depositor is transferring the Subsequent Mortgage Loans to the Trust,
and that the Trust is pledging the Subsequent Mortgage Loans to the Indenture
Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Note Insurer, on the date
hereof. Each of the Originators and the Unaffiliated Seller hereby acknowledge
and agree that the Depositor may assign to the Trust, and the Trust may assign
to the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Note
Insurer, its interest in the representations and warranties set forth in this
Section 3. Each of the Originators and the Unaffiliated Seller agrees that, upon
such assignment to the Trust and pledge to the Indenture Trustee, such
representations, warranties, agreements and covenants will run to and be for the
benefit of the Indenture Trustee and the Indenture Trustee may enforce, without
joinder of the Depositor or the Trust, the repurchase and indemnification
obligations of the Unaffiliated Seller and the Originators set forth herein with
respect to breaches of such representations, warranties, agreements and
covenants.

Section 4. Repurchase of Subsequent Mortgage Loans. Upon discovery by
any of the Depositor, the Unaffiliated Seller, an Originator, the Indenture
Trustee, the Servicer on behalf of the Trust, the Note Insurer or any Noteholder
of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by the Originators
and the Unaffiliated Seller pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Unaffiliated
Seller's Agreement or this Section 3, the party discovering such breach shall
give prompt written notice to each other Person; provided, that the Indenture
Trustee shall have no duty to inquire or to investigate the breach of any such
representations and warranties. The Originators and the Unaffiliated Seller will
be obligated to repurchase a Subsequent Mortgage Loan which breaches a
representation or warranty in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.02 of
the Sale and Servicing Agreement or to indemnify as described in Section 3.05(g)
of the Unaffiliated Seller's Agreement. Such repurchase and indemnification
obligation of the Originators and the Unaffiliated Seller shall constitute the
sole remedy against the Originators and the Unaffiliated Seller, and the Trust
for such breach available to the Servicer, the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the
Depositor, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Insurer and the Noteholders.
Section 5. Amendment. This Subsequent Transfer Agreement may be amended
from time to time by the Originators, the Unaffiliated Seller and the Depositor
only with the prior written consent of the Note Insurer (or, in the event of a
Note Insurer Default, the Majority Holders), and to the extent such amendment
materially affects the interests of the Owner Trustee, upon written notice to
the Owner Trustee.
Section 6. GOVERNING LAW; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THIS SUBSEQUENT
TRANSFER AGREEMENT AND ANY AMENDMENT HEREOF PURSUANT TO SECTION 5 SHALL BE
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SUBSEQUENT TRANSFER
AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM
THEREIN.
Section 7. Counterparts. This Subsequent Transfer Agreement may be
executed in counterparts (and by different parties on separate counterparts),
each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and
the same instrument.
Section 8. Binding Effect; Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Subsequent
Transfer Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties
hereto, the Note Insurer, the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Noteholders, and
their respective successors and permitted assigns.
Section 9. Headings. The headings herein are for purposes of reference
only and shall not otherwise affect the meaning or interpretation of any
provision hereof.
Section 10. Exhibits. The exhibits attached hereto and referred to
herein shall constitute a part of this Subsequent Transfer Agreement and are
incorporated into this Subsequent Transfer Agreement for all purposes.

Section 11. Intent of the Parties; Security Agreement. The Originators,
the Unaffiliated Seller and the Depositor intend that the conveyance of all
right, title and interest in and to the Subsequent Mortgage Loans and related
assets described above by the Originators to the Unaffiliated Seller and by the
Unaffiliated Seller to the Depositor pursuant to this Subsequent Transfer
Agreement shall be, and be construed as, a sale of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans
from the Originators to the Unaffiliated Seller and from the Unaffiliated Seller
to the Depositor.
It is, further, not intended that such conveyances be deemed to be
pledges of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans by the Originators to the Unaffiliated
Seller and by the Unaffiliated Seller to the Depositor to secure a debt or other
obligation of the Originators or of the Unaffiliated Seller, as the case may be.
However, in the event that the Subsequent Mortgage Loans are held to be property
of the Originators or the Unaffiliated Seller, or if for any reason this
Subsequent Transfer Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in
the Subsequent Mortgage Loans, then it is intended that: (a) this Subsequent
Transfer Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement within the
meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any other
applicable jurisdiction; (b) the conveyance provided for in this Subsequent
Transfer Agreement shall be deemed to be a grant by the Originators to the
Unaffiliated Seller and by the Unaffiliated Seller to the Depositor of a
security interest in all of the Originators' and the Unaffiliated Seller's
respective right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired,
in and to the Subsequent Mortgage Loans and related assets described above. The
Originators and the Unaffiliated Seller, as applicable, shall, to the extent
consistent with this Subsequent Transfer Agreement, take such reasonable actions
as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Subsequent Transfer Agreement were
deemed to create a security interest in the Subsequent Mortgage Loans and the
other property described above, such interest would be deemed to be a perfected
security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained
as such throughout the term of this Subsequent Transfer Agreement.
