RECITALS

WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to amend the Sale and Servicing Agreement subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment.

SECTION 2. Amendments. (A) Section 1.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following definition:

Interest-Only Loan: A loan which, by its terms, requires the related Borrower to make monthly payments of only accrued interest for the certain period of time following origination. After such interest-only period, the loan terms provide that the Borrower’s monthly payment will be recalculated to cover both interest and principal so that such loan will amortize fully on or prior to its final payment date. Each Interest-Only Loan shall be identified as such on the Loan Schedule, and shall have an interest-only period of five years or as otherwise designated in the Loan Schedule.

(B) Section 1.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement is hereby amended by amending the definition of the term “Revolving Period” in its entirety to read as follows:

(b) It is the intention of the parties hereto that, other than for federal, state and local income or franchise tax purposes (as to which no treatment is herein contemplated), the transfers and assignments of the Trust Estate on the initial Closing Date, on each Transfer Date and as otherwise contemplated by the Basic Documents and the Assignments shall constitute a sale of the Trust Estate including, without limitation, the Loans and all other property comprising the Trust Estate specified in Section 2.01(a) hereof, from the Depositor to the Issuer and such property shall not be property of the Depositor. The parties hereto shall treat the Notes as indebtedness for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes.

(D) Section 3.01(e) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

(F) Section 3.03(e) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

(xx) Except for Interest-Only Loans, Principal payments on the Loan commenced no more than two months after the proceeds of the Loan were disbursed. The Loan bears interest at the Loan Interest Rate. With respect to each Loan unless otherwise stated on the Loan Schedule, the Promissory Note is payable on the first day of each month in Monthly Payments which, except for Balloon Loans, are sufficient to fully amortize the original principal balance over the original term thereof and to pay interest at the related Loan Interest Rate, and, in the case of each ARM, are changed on each Adjustment Date. The Promissory Note does not permit negative amortization. No Loan is a Convertible Mortgage Loan;

(J) A new Exhibit G is added to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, in the form appended to this Amendment.
