ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The Florida Act authorizes Florida corporations to indemnify any person who
was or is a party to any proceeding (other than an action by, or in the right
of, the corporation), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director,
officer, employee, or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the
request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another
corporation or other entity, against liability incurred in connection with such
proceeding, including any appeal thereof, if he or she acted in good faith and
in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best
interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
In the case of an action by or on behalf of a corporation, indemnification may
not be made if the person seeking indemnification is adjudged liable, unless the
court in which such action was brought determines such person is fairly and
reasonably entitled to indemnification. The indemnification provisions of the
Florida Act require indemnification if a director or officer has been successful
on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding to which
he or she was a party by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director
or officer of the corporation. The indemnification authorized under Florida law
is not exclusive and is in addition to any other rights granted to officers and
directors under the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the corporation or
any agreement between officers and directors and the corporation.
Under the Florida Act, a director is not personally liable for monetary
damages to the Company or any other person for acts or omissions in his or her
capacity as a director except in certain limited circumstances such as certain
violations of criminal law and transactions in which the director derived an
improper person benefit. As a result, shareholders may be unable to recover
monetary damages against directors for actions taken by them which constitute
negligence or gross negligence or which are in violation of their fiduciary
duties, although injunctive or other equitable relief may be available. These
provisions will not limit the liability of the Company's directors under the
Federal securities laws.
The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Company shall
indemnify officers and directors, and to the extent authorized by the Board of
Directors, employees and agents of the Company, to the full extent permitted by
and in the manner permissible by law in existence either now or hereafter. In
addition, the Certificate of Incorporation also permits the Board of Directors
to authorize the Company to purchase and maintain insurance against any
liability asserted against any director, officer, employee or agent of the
Company arising out of his capacity as such. The Company presently maintains
policies of directors' and officers' liability insurance in the amount of $2.0
million.
The Underwriting Agreement filed as Exhibit 1 hereto contains reciprocal
agreements of indemnity between the Company and the Underwriters as to certain
liabilities, including liabilities under the
II-1
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Securities Act, and in certain circumstances provides for the indemnification of
the Company's directors, officers, and controlling persons.
Certain registration rights agreements between the Company and certain of
its shareholders contain reciprocal agreements between the Company and such
shareholders as to certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act, and in certain circumstances provide for indemnification of the
Company's directors, officers and controlling persons.
ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
In March, 1996, the Partnership issued a debenture due September 18, 1996
to Rotch Property Group Limited for $1.8 million. Pursuant to the debenture,
Rotch Property Group Limited has the right to convert the debenture into shares
of Common Stock of the Registrant and receive shares of Common Stock, $.01 par
value per share, at a price equal to 93% of the public offering price. The
Company will pay all amounts due under the Rotch Debenture from the proceeds of
the Public Offering. The issuance of the Rotch Debenture was exempt from
registration under the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof.
As of December 31, 1995, the Partnership entered into an agreement with
ContiTrade Services Corporation in which the Partnership issued an option to
purchase limited partnership interests which, in connection with the
Reorganization Plan, will become a warrant for 1.5 million shares of the
Registrant's Common Stock, $.01 par value per share. Both the issuance of the
Conti Option and its exchange for the Conti Warrant were transactions exempt
from registration under the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the
Underwriters, at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement,
certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by
the Underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of
this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a
form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or
(4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall
be deemed to be a new Registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

that a failure or delay to exercise its rights under subsection (a) of this
Section shall not limit its rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by
law or in any way create additional rights for the Seller.

event that a court or other forum recharacterizes the Transactions hereunder as
loans and as security for the performance by Seller of all of Seller's
obligations to Buyer under this Agreement and the Transactions entered into
pursuant to this Agreement, Seller grants Buyer a first priority security
interest in the Purchased Mortgage Loans, Servicing Agreements, Servicing
Records, insurance relating to the Mortgage Loans and Income accounts relating

time to time by Buyer or its Affiliates (collectively, the "Collateral").

funds hereunder shall be in immediately available funds.
(b) On the Purchase Date for each Transaction, ownership of the
Purchased Mortgage Loans shall be transferred to the Buyer or its designee
(including the Custodian) against the simultaneous transfer of the Purchase
Price to an account of Seller specified in the Confirmation. In the case of
Purchased Mortgage Loans other than Wet Ink Mortgage Loans, Seller,
simultaneously with the delivery to the Buyer or its designee (including the
Custodian) of the Purchased Mortgage Loans relating to each Transaction hereby
sells, transfers, conveys and assigns to Buyer or its designee (including the
Custodian) without recourse, but subject to the terms of this Agreement, all the
right, title and interest of Seller in and to the Purchased Mortgage Loans
together with all right, title and interest in and to the proceeds of any
related insurance policies. In the case of Purchased Mortgage Loans which are

the Wet Ink Mortgage Loans relating to each Transaction hereby sells, transfers,
conveys and assigns to Buyer or its designee (including the Custodian) without
recourse, but subject to the terms of this Agreement, all the right, title and
interest of Seller in and to such Purchased Mortgage Loans together with all
right, title and interest in and to the proceeds of any related insurance
policies. Upon transfer of the Mortgage Loans to Buyer as set forth in Paragraph
3(a) of this Agreement (or in the case of Purchased Mortgage Loans which are Wet
Ink Mortgage Loans, upon the purchase thereof by Buyer) and until termination of
any Transactions as set forth in this Agreement, record title in the name of

benefit of Buyer, for the sole purpose of facilitating the servicing and the

unrestricted use of all Purchased Mortgage Loans. Nothing in this Agreement
shall preclude Buyer from engaging in
12
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
repurchase transactions with the Purchased Mortgage Loans or otherwise pledging,
repledging, hypothecating, or rehypothecating the Purchased Mortgage Loans,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, but no such
transaction shall relieve Buyer of its obligations to transfer Purchased
Mortgage Loans to Seller pursuant to Section 3. Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall obligate Buyer to segregate any Purchased Mortgage Loans
delivered to Buyer by Seller.
9. SUBSTITUTION.
(a) Subject to Section 9.(b), Seller may, upon one (1) Business
Days written notice to Buyer, with a copy to Custodian, substitute other
Mortgage Loans for any Purchased Mortgage Loans. Such substitution shall be made
by transfer to Buyer or its designee (including the Custodian) of the Mortgage
File of such other Mortgage Loans together with a Custodial Delivery and
transfer to Seller or its designee of the Purchased Mortgage Loans requested for
release. After substitution, the substituted Mortgage Loans, shall be deemed to
be Purchased Mortgage Loans.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement,
Seller may not substitute other Mortgage Loans for any Purchased Mortgage Loans
if (i) after taking into account such substitution, a Collateral Deficit were to
occur, or (ii) Buyer does not consent to such substitution which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld.

(i) Organization. The Seller is duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws and
regulations of the state of Seller's organization and is duly

change in the business, operations, financial condition,

effect on the validity of this Agreement or the Purchased
Mortgage Loans Assets or any action taken or to be taken in
connection with the obligations of the Seller contemplated
herein.
(iii) No Broker. The Seller has not dealt with any
broker, investment banker, agent, or other person, except for the

Loans shall be free and clear of any lien, encumbrance or
impediment to transfer, and the Seller represents and warrants

transfer such Purchased Mortgage Loans to the Buyer; provided,
however, that the existence of repurchase rights in favor of
third parties to repurchase Purchased Mortgage Loans from Seller
pursuant to repurchase agreements between Seller as buyer and
such third parties as seller will not violate Seller's warranties
and representations.
(v) Delivery of Mortgage File. The Mortgage Note, the
Mortgage, the Assignment of Mortgage and any other documents
required to be delivered under this Agreement or the Custodial

<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(vi) Selection Process. The Purchased Mortgage Loans
were selected from among the outstanding mortgage loans in the
Seller's portfolio as to which the representations and warranties
set forth in this Agreement could be made and such selection was
not made in a manner so as to affect adversely the interests of
the Buyer.
(vii) Additional Representations and Warranties By
Insured Depository Institutions. If Seller is an "insured
depository institution" as that term is defined in Section
1813(a) of Title 12 of the United States Code, as amended, Seller
makes the following additional representations and warranties:
(A) This Agreement between Buyer and Seller
conforms to all applicable statutory requirements. This
Agreement is (1) executed contemporaneously with the
agreement reached by Buyer and Seller, (2) approved by a
specific corporate or banking association resolution by
the Seller's board of directors, which approval shall be

continuously, from the time of its execution, an official
record of the Seller. A copy of such resolution, certified
by a vice president or higher officer of Seller has been

<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(iii) No Impairment. Buyer shall not, without Seller's
prior consent, take, or cause to occur, any action which has any
material and adverse impact on the value of any Purchased
Mortgage Loan to Seller, including, without limitation, acts such
as altering, waiving or releasing any obligations of any party
obligated on any Purchase Mortgage Loan, and the placing of any
lien upon, or transferring in interest to any third person in,
any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans which lien or interest will
remain in effect on the Repurchase Date.
(d) The Seller represents and warrants to the Buyer that each
Mortgage Loan sold hereunder and each pool of Mortgage Loans sold in a
Transaction hereunder, as of the related Purchase Date conform to the
representations and warranties set forth in Exhibit V attached hereto and such
additional representations and warranties provided in the Confirmation, if any,
and that each Mortgage Loan delivered hereunder as Additional Loans or
Substituted Mortgage Loans, as of the date of such delivery, conforms to the
representations and warranties set forth in Exhibit V hereto and the
Confirmation, if any; provided, however, that any breach of the representations
and warranties set forth in Exhibit V shall not constitute an Event of Default
if Seller (i) substitutes another mortgage loan pursuant to Section 9(a) above
for any Purchased Mortgage Loan as to which the representations and warranties
of Exhibit V were breached, or (ii) repurchases such Mortgage Loan. Buyer may in
its sole discretion waive any of the representations and warranties set forth in
Exhibit V attached hereto; provided, that such waiver must be set forth in the
related Confirmation. It is understood and agreed that the representations and
warranties set forth in Exhibit V hereto and the Confirmation, if any, shall
survive delivery of the respective Mortgage File to Buyer or its designee
(including the Custodian). With respect to representation and warranty (o) in
Exhibit V, the percentage of Mortgage Loans with LTVs in excess of 85% without a
PMI policy shall be determined by Buyer on the last Business Day of each
calendar month. In the event a breach of such representation and warranty is
determined to exist, Buyer shall give notice thereof to Seller and Seller shall
have fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice to cure such breach.
(e) On the Purchase Date for any Transaction, Buyer and Seller
shall each be deemed to have made all the foregoing representations with respect
to itself as of such Purchase Date.
11. NEGATIVE COVENANTS. (a) On and as of the date of this
Agreement and each Purchase Date and until this Agreement is no
longer in force with respect to any Transaction, the Seller
covenants that it will not:
(i) take any action which would directly or
indirectly impair or adversely affect the Buyer's title to or the
value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans;
(ii) pledge, assign, convey, grant, bargain, sell,
set over, deliver or otherwise transfer any interest in the

any lien, encumbrance or security interest in or on the
Purchased Mortgage Loans except as described in Section 6 of
this Agreement;
(iii) without Buyer's prior consent, Seller and those

(b) On and as of the date of this Agreement and each Purchase
Date and until this Agreement is no longer in force with respect to any

to Section 10.(b)(iv) or pursuant to any other Section of this
Agreement.
(ii) Seller shall provide Buyer with copies of such
documentation as Buyer may reasonably request evidencing the

and file such UCC financing statements as Buyer may reasonably
request.

or permit to exist any lien, encumbrance or security interest in
or on any of the Collateral without the prior express written
consent of Buyer.
(v) Seller shall notify Buyer immediately after

that constitutes an Event of Default with respect to Seller or
any event that with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or
both, would become an Event of Default with respect to Seller.
(vi) Seller warrants and will defend the right, title
and interest of Buyer in and to all Collateral against all
adverse claims and demands.
17
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(vii) Seller shall immediately notify Buyer of any
litigation or proceeding commenced against it which may, if
adversely determined, have a material adverse affect on the
business of the Seller.
(viii) Seller shall repurchase or cause the repurchase
of any Mortgage Loan within 180 days of the initial Purchase Date
of such Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that the Seller's
obligation to repurchase any Purchased Mortgage Loan shall be

warranties of the Buyer set forth in Section 10 hereof with
respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loan and the satisfaction of
all other conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement.
(b) Affirmative covenants of the Buyer: Buyer will take such
actions as are reasonably required to assure that its representations and
warranties in this Agreement remain true and correct during the term of this
Agreement.
13. EVENTS OF DEFAULT.
(a) If any of the following events (each an "Event of Default")
occur, the Seller and Buyer shall have the rights set forth in Section 14, as

(i) Seller fails to pay the Repurchase Price in full
when due or Buyer fails to deliver the Mortgage Loans against

authority takes any action to remove, limit, restrict, suspend or

material adverse effect on the ordinary business operations of
Seller or Seller's Affiliate, and which continues for more than
24 hours;
18
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(vii) there exists a change in the chief executive
officer of the Seller or Seller dissolves, merges or consolidates
with another entity unless it is the surviving party, or sells,
transfers, or otherwise disposes of a material portion of its
business or assets (other than sales of mortgage loans in the
ordinary course of Seller's business), unless such change in
management or merger is approved by Buyer; provided, however,
that a breach of this clause (vii) may, at Buyer's sole
discretion, result in a termination of Buyer's commitment under
Section 3(c) hereof, and provided, further, that such breach
shall not constitute an Event of Default unless it remains
uncured, in the sole judgment of Buyer, for a period of 60 days;
(viii) Buyer, in its respective good faith judgment, has
reasonable cause to believe that there has been a material
adverse change in the business, operations, organizational
structure or financial condition of the Seller or that the Seller
will not meet any of its obligations under any Transaction
pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement between the
parties, and the Seller fails to provide the Buyer with adequate
assurances (including without limitation performance guarantees),
within 24 hours of a request therefor, of its ability to perform
its obligations;
(ix) Seller shall fail to pay any of its indebtedness
for borrowed money of at least $250,000 or pay interest or
premium thereon when due (whether by scheduled maturity, required

transactions of at least $250,000 and either of such failures
remains in effect beyond the Reasonable Correction Period;
(x) a judgment by any competent court in the United
States of America for the payment of money in an amount of at

remains undischarged or unpaid for a period of sixty (60) days
during which execution of such judgment is not effectively
stayed;
(xi) a court or other forum recharacterizes the
Transactions hereunder as loans and as security for the
performance by Seller of all of Seller's obligations to Buyer

of the Purchased Mortgage Loans purported to be covered hereby;
or
(xii) Seller fails to provide quarterly unaudited and
annual audited financial statements within 60 and 120 days,
respectively, after the date on which such period ends, or falls
to deliver in a timely manner such financial or other information
as Buyer may from time to time reasonably request.
(b) In making a determination as to whether an Event of Default
has occurred, the Buyer shall be entitled to rely on reports published or
broadcast by media sources believed
19
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
by the Buyer to be generally reliable and on information provided to it by any
other sources believed by it to be generally reliable, provided that the Buyer
reasonably and in good faith believes such information to be accurate and has
taken such steps as may be reasonable in the circumstances to attempt to verify
such information; provided, however, that Buyer shall have used its best effects
to obtain correct information from Seller and Buyer shall have been unable to do
so within the Reasonable Correction Period.
14. REMEDIES.
(a) If an Event of Default occurs with respect to the Seller, the
following rights and remedies are available to the Buyer:
(i) At the option of the Buyer, exercised by written
notice to the Seller (which option shall be deemed to have been
exercised, even if no notice is given, immediately upon the
occurrence of an Act of Insolvency), the Repurchase Date for each
Transaction hereunder shall be deemed immediately to occur.
Notwithstanding that the Repurchase Date shall be deemed
immediately to have occurred upon the exercise or deemed exercise
of such option by the Buyer, for purposes of determining the
Repurchase Price, the Repurchase Date shall be the date specified
in the Confirmation for such Transaction.
(ii) If the Buyer exercises or is deemed to have exercised
the option referred to in subsection (a)(i) of this Section,
(A) the Seller's obligations hereunder to
repurchase all Purchased Mortgage Loans in such
Transactions shall thereupon become immediately due and
payable,
(B) to the extent permitted by applicable law, the
Pricing Rate shall be [certain confidential information
has been omitted and filed separately with the Commission
pursuant to a Request for Confidential Treatment], and
(C) all Income actually received by the Buyer
pursuant to Section 5 shall be applied to the aggregate
unpaid Repurchase Price owed by the Seller.
(iii) After one Business Day's notice to the Seller
(which notice may be given concurrently with any notice to Seller
of Buyer's declaration of an Event of Default, and which notice
may be the notice given under subsection (a)(i) of this Section),
the Buyer may (A) immediately sell, without notice or demand of
any kind, at a public or private sale and at such price or prices
as the Buyer may reasonably deem satisfactory any or all
Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to a Transaction hereunder or
(B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a
portion of such Purchased Mortgage Loans, to give the Seller
credit for such Purchased Mortgage Loans in an amount equal to
the Market Value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans against the
aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price and
20
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
any other amounts owing by the Seller hereunder. The
proceeds of any disposition of Purchased Mortgage Loans shall be
applied first to the costs and expenses incurred by the Buyer in
connection with the Seller's default; second to actual damages,
including but not limited to costs of cover and/or related
hedging transactions; third to the Repurchase Price; and fourth
to any other outstanding obligation of the Seller to the Buyer
or its Affiliates.
(iv) Buyer or an Affiliate may deliver the Purchased
Mortgage Loans which are subject to a purchase commitment by FNMA
or another purchaser to FNMA or such purchaser in exchange for
securities or cash, which securities or cash shall then be
treated as Purchased Mortgage Loans, and the Seller hereby
irrevocably appoints the Buyer to act as its attorney-in-fact and
agent to take such action upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default as may be necessary to obtain such securities or cash.
(v) The parties recognize that it may not be possible
to purchase or sell all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans on a
particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same
purchaser, or in the same manner because the market for such
Purchased Mortgage Loans may not be liquid. In view of the nature
of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, the parties agree that
liquidation of a Transaction or the underlying Purchased Mortgage
Loans does not require a public purchase or sale and that a good
faith private purchase or sale shall be deemed to have been made
in a commercially reasonable manner; provided, however, that the
Buyer shall give the Seller at least one (1) day prior written
notice of any public or private sale, which notice may be given
concurrently with any notice to Seller of Buyer's declaration of
an Event of Default. Accordingly, Buyer may elect, in its sole
discretion, the time and manner of liquidating any Purchased
Mortgage Loan and nothing contained herein shall (A) obligate
Buyer to liquidate any Purchased Mortgage Loan on the occurrence
of an Event of Default or to liquidate all Purchased Mortgage
Loans in the same manner or on the same Business Day or (B)
constitute a waiver of any right or remedy of Buyer. However, in
recognition of the parties' agreement that the Transactions
hereunder have been entered into in consideration of and in
reliance upon the fact that all Transactions hereunder constitute
a single business and contractual relationship and that each
Transaction has been entered into in consideration of the other
Transactions, the parties further agree that Buyer shall use its
best efforts to liquidate all Transactions hereunder upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default as quickly as is prudently
possible in the reasonable judgment of Buyer.
(vi) Buyer shall, without regard to the adequacy of
the security for the Seller's obligations under this Agreement,
be entitled to the appointment of a receiver by any court having
jurisdiction, without notice, to take possession of and protect,
collect, manage, liquidate, and sell the Collateral or any
portion thereof, and collect the payments due with respect to the
Collateral or any portion
21
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
thereof. Seller shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by
Buyer in connection with the appointment and activities of such
receiver.
(vii) Seller agrees that Buyer may obtain an injunction
or an order of specific performance to compel Seller to fulfill
its obligations as set forth in Section 25, if Seller fails or
refuses to perform its obligations as set forth therein.
(viii) Seller shall be liable to Buyer for (A) the
amount of all expenses, including reasonable legal or other
expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with or as a consequence
of an Event of Default, and (B) actual damages, including,
without limitation, all reasonable costs incurred in connection
with hedging or covering transactions.
(ix) Buyer shall have all the rights and remedies
provided herein, provided by applicable federal, state, foreign,
and local laws (including, without limitation, the rights and
remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of
the State of New York, to the extent that the Uniform Commercial
Code is applicable, and the right to offset any mutual debt and
claim), in equity, and under any other agreement between Buyer
and Seller.
(x) Buyer may exercise one or more of the remedies
available to Buyer immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default and, except to the extent provided in subsections (a)(i),
(iii) or (v) of this Section, at any time thereafter without
notice to Seller. All rights and remedies arising under this
Agreement as amended from time-to-time hereunder are cumulative
and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which Buyer may
have.
(xi) In addition to its rights hereunder, Buyer shall
have the right to proceed against any assets of Seller which may
be in the possession of Buyer, its Affiliates or their designee
(including the Custodian), including the right to liquidate such
assets and to set off the proceeds against monies owed by Seller
to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement. Buyer may set off cash, the
proceeds of the liquidation of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, any
Collateral or its proceeds, and all sums or obligations owed by
Buyer or its Affiliates to Seller against all of Seller's
obligations to Buyer, whether under this Agreement, under a
Transaction, or under any other agreement between the parties, or
otherwise, whether or not such obligations are then due, without
prejudice to Buyer's right to recover any deficiency. Any cash,
proceeds, or property in excess of any amounts due, or which
Buyer reasonably believes may become due, to it from Seller shall
be returned to Seller after satisfaction of all obligations of
Seller to Buyer.
(xii) Buyer may enforce its rights and remedies
hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and Seller
hereby expressly waives any defenses Seller might otherwise have
to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process.
Seller also waives any defense Seller might otherwise have
arising from
22
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
the use of nonjudicial process, enforcement and sale of all or
any portion of the Collateral, or from any other election of
remedies. Seller recognizes that nonjudicial remedies are
consistent with the usages of the trade, are responsive to
commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm's
length.
(b) If an Event of Default occurs with respect to Buyer, the
following rights and remedies are available to the Seller:
(i) Upon tender by the Seller of payment of the
aggregate Repurchase Price for all such Transactions, the Buyer's
right, title and interest in all Purchased Mortgage Loans subject
to such Transactions shall be deemed transferred to the Seller,
and the Buyer shall deliver or cause to be transferred all such
Purchased Mortgage Loans to the Seller or its designee at Buyer's
expense.
(ii) If the Seller exercises the option referred to in
subsection (b)(i) of this Section and the Buyer fails to deliver
or cause to be delivered the Purchased Mortgage Loans to the
Seller or its designee, after one Business Day's notice to the
Buyer, the Seller may (A) purchase Mortgage Loans or securities
("Replacement Assets") that are as similar as is reasonably
practicable in characteristics, outstanding principal amounts (as
a pool) and interest rate to any Purchased Mortgage Loans that
are not delivered by the Buyer to the Seller or its designee as
required hereunder or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu
of purchasing Replacement Assets, to be deemed to have purchased
Replacement Assets at a price therefor on such date, equal to the
Market Value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans.
(iii) The Buyer shall be liable to the Seller (A) with
respect to Purchased Mortgage Loans (other than Additional
Loans), for any excess of the price paid (or deemed paid) by the
Seller for Replacement Assets therefor over the Repurchase Price
for such Purchased Mortgage Loans, (B) with respect to Additional
Loans, for the price paid (or deemed paid) by the Seller for the
Replacement Assets therefor, and (C) for actual damages,
including, without limitation, all costs incurred in connection
with hedging or covering transactions. In addition, the Buyer
shall be liable to the Seller for interest on such remaining
liability with respect to each such purchase (or deemed purchase)
of Replacement Assets from the date of such purchase (or deemed
purchase) until paid in full by Buyer. Such interest shall be at
the greater of the Pricing Rate or the Prime Rate.
15. RECORDING OF COMMUNICATIONS. Buyer has represented to Seller
that Buyer is required by applicable law or regulations to from time to time
make or cause to be made tape recordings of communications between its employees
and those of the other party with respect to Transactions. Accordingly, Buyer
and Seller shall have the right (but not the obligation) from time to time to
make or cause to be made tape recordings of communications between its employees
and those of the other party with respect to Transactions. Buyer and
23
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Seller consent to the admissibility of such tape recordings in any court,
arbitration, or other proceedings. The parties agree that a duly authenticated
transcript of such a tape recording shall be deemed to be a writing conclusively
evidencing the parties' agreement.
16. SINGLE AGREEMENT. Buyer and Seller acknowledge that, and have
entered hereunto and will enter into each Transaction hereunder in consideration
of and in reliance upon the fact that, all Transactions hereunder constitute a
single business and contractual relationship and that each has been entered into
in consideration of the other Transactions. Accordingly, each of Buyer and
Seller agrees (i) to perform all of its obligations in respect of each
Transaction hereunder, and that a default in the performance of any such
obligations shall constitute a default by it in respect of all Transactions
hereunder, (ii) that each of them shall be entitled to set off claims and apply
property held by them in respect of any Transaction against obligations owing to
them in respect of any other Transactions hereunder and (iii) that payments,
deliveries, and other transfers made by either of them in respect of any
Transaction shall be deemed to have been made in consideration of payments,
deliveries, and other transfers in respect of any other Transactions hereunder,
and the obligations to make any such payments, deliveries, and other transfers
may be applied against each other and netted.
17. NOTICES AND OTHER COMMUNICATIONS. Unless another address is
specified in writing by the respective party to whom any written notice or other
communication is to be given hereunder, all such notices or communications shall
be in writing or confirmed in writing and delivered at the respective addresses
set forth in the Confirmation. Any notices or other communications permitted or
required hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed conclusively to have
been given if (a) personally delivered, (b) mailed by registered or certified
mail, postage prepaid, and return receipt requested, (c) sent by express courier
delivery service and received by the party to whom it is sent or (d) transmitted
by telex or facsimile transmission (or any other type of electronic transmission
agreed upon by the parties) and confirmed by a writing given by means of (a),
(b) or (c) but, if transmitted by facsimile, shall be deemed received on the
date of the confirmation of the receipt by the receiving party's facsimile
machine.
18. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; SEVERABILITY. This Agreement together with the
applicable Confirmation and the Custodial Agreement constitutes the entire
understanding between Buyer and Seller with respect to the subject matter it
covers and shall supersede any existing agreements between the parties
containing general terms and conditions for repurchase transactions involving
Purchased Mortgage Loans. By acceptance of this Agreement, Buyer and Seller
acknowledge that they have not made, and are not relying upon, any statements,
representations, promises or undertakings not contained in this Agreement. Each
provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from
any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding
the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement.
19. NON-ASSIGNABILITY. The rights and obligations of the parties under
this Agreement and under any Transaction shall not be assigned by either party
without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, that
Nomura may assign its rights and obligations under
24
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
this Agreement and/or under any Transaction to an Affiliate without the prior
written consent of the other party. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement and
any Transactions shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the
parties and their respective successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement
express or implied, shall give to any person, other than the parties to this
Agreement and their successors hereunder, any benefit or any legal or equitable
right, power, remedy or claim under this Agreement.
20. TERMINABILITY. This Agreement shall be terminated three hundred and
sixty four (364) days following the date hereof, and any outstanding
Transactions shall become due on such date. Notwithstanding any such termination
or the occurrence of an Event of Default, all of the representations, warranties
and covenants hereunder shall continue and survive.
21. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW
PRINCIPLES THEREOF.
22. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION AND ARBITRATION. The parties irrevocably
agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the United States District Court
for the Southern District of New York, the parties irrevocably waiving any
objection thereto and waive all rights to a trial by jury. If, for any reason,
federal jurisdiction is not available, and only if federal jurisdiction is not
available, the parties irrevocably agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction
of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, the parties irrevocably waiving
any objection thereto and waive all rights to a trial by jury. Notwithstanding
the foregoing two sentences, at either party's sole option exercisable at any
time not later than thirty (30) days after an action or proceeding has been
commenced, the parties agree that the matter may be submitted to binding
arbitration in accordance with the commercial rules of the American Arbitration
Association then in effect in the State of New York and judgment upon any award
rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction
thereof within the City, County and State of New York; provided, however, that
the arbitrator shall not amend, supplement, or reform in any regard this
Agreement or the terms of any Confirmation, the rights or obligations of any
party hereunder or thereunder, or the enforceability of any of the terms hereof
or thereof. Any arbitration shall be conducted before a single arbitrator who
shall be reasonably familiar with repurchase transactions and the secondary
mortgage market in the City, County, and State of New York.
23. NO WAIVERS, ETC. No express or implied waiver of any Event of
Default by either party shall constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default
and no exercise of any remedy hereunder by any party shall constitute a waiver
of its right to exercise any other remedy hereunder. No modification or waiver
of any provision of this Agreement and no consent by any party to a departure
herefrom shall be effective unless and until such shall be in writing and duly
executed by both of the parties hereto. Any such waiver or modification shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which
it was given.
24. INTENT. The parties understand and intend that this Agreement and
each Transaction hereunder constitute a "securities contract" as that term is
defined in Section 741
25
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended; provided, however, that if
the Seller is an "insured depository institution" as that term is defined in
Section 1813(a) of Title 12 of the United States Code, as amended, the parties
understand and intend that this Agreement and each Transaction hereunder
constitute a "qualified financial contract" as that term is defined in Section
1821 of Title 12 of the United States Code, as amended.
25. SERVICING.
(a) Seller covenants to maintain or cause the servicing of the
Mortgage Loans to be maintained in conformity with accepted servicing practices
in the industry and in a manner at least equal in quality to the servicing
Seller provides to mortgage loans which it owns. The Servicer (or Seller if
acting as Servicer) may retain record title of the Purchased Mortgage Loans
solely for the purpose of servicing or supervising the servicing of such
Purchased Mortgage Loans. All beneficial ownership in the Purchased Mortgage
Loans shall remain in the Buyer while any such Purchased Mortgage Loan has not
been repurchased hereunder. All servicing fees and compensation with respect to
the servicing of the Mortgage Loans shall be customary, reasonable and
consistent with industry practice.
(b) If the Mortgage Loans are serviced by the Seller, (i) Seller
agrees that, while any such Purchased Mortgage Loan has not been repurchased
hereunder, Buyer is the owner of all servicing records, including but not
limited to any and all servicing agreements, files, documents, records, data
bases, computer tapes, copies of computer tapes, proof of insurance coverage,
insurance policies, appraisals, other closing documentation, payment history
records, and any other records relating to or evidencing the servicing of
Purchased Mortgage Loans (the "Servicing Records"), and (ii) Seller grants the
Buyer a security interest in all servicing fees and rights relating to the
Mortgage Loans and all Servicing Records to secure the obligation of the Seller
or its designee to service in conformity with this Section and any other
obligation of Seller to Buyer. Seller covenants to safeguard such Servicing
Records and to deliver them promptly to Buyer or its designee (including the
Custodian) at Buyer's request.
(c) If the Mortgage Loans are serviced by a third party servicer
(such third party servicer, the "Servicer"), the Seller (i) shall provide a copy
of the servicing agreement to Buyer (the "Servicing Agreement"); and (ii) hereby
irrevocably assigns to the Buyer and Buyer's successors and assigns all right,
title, interest and the benefits of the Servicing Agreements with respect to the
Mortgage Loans.
(d) The Servicer (or Seller if acting as Servicer) shall use of
one or more of the following types of accounts, in each case maintained at an
institution that is independent of and unaffiliated with Seller, into which all
sums collected in respect of Mortgage Loans shall be deposited and maintained:
(i) a trust account or accounts maintained for the benefit of Buyer with the
trust department of a federally chartered depository institution or trust
company acting in its fiduciary capacity or (ii) a trust account or accounts
maintained for the benefit of Buyer with the trust department of a state
chartered depository institution or trust company acting in its fiduciary
capacity and subject to regulations regarding fiduciary funds on deposit therein
substantially similar to 12 CFR ss. 9.10(b), or (iii) an account or accounts (a)
maintained with a
26
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
depository institution the debt obligations of which are rated by Standard &
Poor's Ratings Group in one of its two highest rating categories at the time of
any deposit therein or (b) the deposits of which are insured by the FDIC, to the
limits established by the FDIC, and the uninsured deposits in which are
otherwise secured such that, as evidenced by an opinion of counsel, Buyer has a
claim with respect to the funds in such account or a perfected first security
interest against any collateral securing such funds that is superior to claims
of any other depositor or creditors of the depository institution with which
such account is maintained.
(e) Seller shall provide to Buyer a letter from the Servicer to
the effect that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Buyer may terminate
the Servicing Agreement and transfer such servicing to its designee, at no cost
or expense to Buyer, it being agreed that Seller will pay any and all fees
required to terminate the Servicing Agreement and to effectuate the transfer of
Servicing to Buyer.
26. DISCLOSURE RELATING TO CERTAIN FEDERAL PROTECTIONS. The parties
acknowledge that they have been advised that in the case of Transactions in
which one of the parties is an "insured depository institution" as that term is
defined in Section 1831(a) of Title 12 of the United States Code, as amended,
funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are
not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation, the Savings Association Insurance Fund or the Bank Insurance Fund,
as applicable.
27. NETTING. If Buyer and Seller are "financial institutions" as now or
hereinafter defined in Section 4402 of Title 12 of the United States Code
("Section 4402") and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder:
(a) All amounts to be paid or advanced by one party to or on
behalf of the other under this Agreement or any Transaction hereunder shall be
deemed to be "payment obligations" and all amounts to be received by or on
behalf of one party from the other under this Agreement or any Transaction
hereunder shall be deemed to be "payment entitlements" within the meaning of
Section 4402, and this Agreement shall be deemed to be a "netting contract" as
defined in Section 4402.
(b) The payment obligations and the payment entitlements of the
parties hereto pursuant to this Agreement and any Transaction hereunder shall be
netted as follows. In the event that either party (the "Defaulting Party") shall
fail to honor any payment obligation under this Agreement or any Transaction
hereunder, the other party (the "Nondefaulting Party") shall be entitled to
reduce the amount of any payment to be made by the Nondefaulting Party to the
Defaulting Party by the amount of the payment obligation that the Defaulting
Party failed to honor.
28. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO INITIAL TRANSACTION. As conditions precedent
to the initial Transaction hereunder, Buyer shall have received on or before the
day of such Transaction the following, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Buyer and duly executed by Seller:
(a) This Agreement and the Custodial Agreement.
27
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(b) Evidence that all other actions necessary or, in the sole
discretion of Buyer exercised reasonably, desirable to perfect and protect the
security interests and liens created by Section 6 hereof have been taken,
including without limitation duly executed Uniform Commercial Code financing
statements on Form UCC-1 with respect to the Collateral.
(c) A certified copy of the Seller's corporate resolutions
approving this Agreement and the Custodial Agreement and transactions
contemplated thereunder, and all documents evidencing other necessary corporate
action or governmental approvals as may be required in connection with this
Agreement and the Custodial Agreement.
(d) A certificate of the Seller's Corporate Secretary or
Assistant Secretary certifying the names, true signatures and titles of the
Seller's officers duly authorized to initiate Transactions and to sign this

such matters as the Buyer may reasonably request.
(f) The documents set forth in Exhibit III and

29. CONFIDENTIALITY. This Agreement and its terms and contents are
proprietary to Buyer and shall be held by Seller in strict confidence and shall
not be disclosed to any third party without the consent of Buyer except for (i)
disclosure to your attorneys or accountants, provided that such attorneys and
accountants likewise agree to be bound by this covenant of confidentiality or
(ii) disclosure required by law, rule, regulation or order of a court or other
regulatory body.
30. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) Time is of the essence under this agreement and all
Transactions and all references to a time shall mean New York time in effect on
the date of the action unless otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement.
(b) Buyer shall be authorized to accept orders and take any other
action affecting any accounts of the Seller in response to instructions given in
writing or orally by telephone or otherwise by any person with apparent
authority to act on behalf of the Seller, and the Seller shall indemnify Buyer,
defend, and hold Buyer harmless from and against any and all liabilities,
losses, damages, costs, and expenses of any nature arising out of or in
connection with any action taken by Buyer in response to such instructions
received or reasonably believed to have been received from the Seller.
(c) If there is any conflict between the terms of this Agreement
or any Transaction entered into hereunder and the Custodial Agreement, this
Agreement shall prevail.
28
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(d) If there is any conflict between the terms of a Confirmation
or a corrected Confirmation issued by the Buyer and this Agreement, the
Confirmation shall prevail.
(e) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which
so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of such counterparts
shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
(f) The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only and shall not affect the interpretation or construction of this
Agreement.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have entered into this Agreement
as of the date set forth above.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
REGARDING NON-CONFORMING RESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE LOANS
Seller represents and warrants to the Buyer that, with respect to each
Non-Conforming Residential Mortgage Loan sold hereunder and with respect to each
pool of Non-Conforming Residential Mortgage Loans sold in a Transaction
hereunder, as of the related Purchase Date:
(a) Mortgage Loans as Described. The information set forth in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule is complete, true and correct;
(b) Payments Current. All payments required to be made under the terms
of the mortgage note have been made and credited or are not more than one
payment past due;
(c) No Outstanding Charges. There are no defaults in complying with the
terms of the mortgage, and all taxes, governmental assessments, insurance
premiums, water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold payments or ground rents
which previously became due and owing have been paid, or an escrow of funds has
been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such item which
remains unpaid and which has been assessed but is not yet due and payable.
Seller has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any
advance of funds by a party other than the mortgagor, directly or indirectly,
for the payment of any amount required under the Mortgage Loan, except for
interest accruing from the date of the mortgage note or date of disbursement of
the Mortgage Loan proceeds, whichever is greater, to the day which precedes by
one month the due date of the first installment of principal and interest;
(d) Original Terms Unmodified. Except in the ordinary course of
servicing, the terms of the mortgage note and mortgage have not been impaired,
waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by a written instrument which
has been recorded, if necessary to protect the interests of Buyer and which has
been delivered to Buyer or its designee (including the Custodian). The substance
of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the issuer
of any related PMI Policy (as defined below) and the title insurer, to the
extent required by the policy, and its terms are reflected on the Mortgage Loan
Schedule. No mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part, except in
connection with an assumption agreement approved by the issuer of any related
PMI Policy (as defined below) and the title insurer, to the extent required by
the policy, and which assumption agreement is included in the Mortgage File
delivered to Buyer or its designee (including the Custodian) and the terms of
which are reflected in the Mortgage Loan Schedule;
(e) No Defenses. The Mortgage Loan is not subject to any right of
rescission, set-off counterclaim or defense, including without limitation the
defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the mortgage
note or the mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render either the
mortgage note or the mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part in any material
respect, or subject to any right of rescission, set-off counterclaim or defense,
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
including without limitation the defense of usury, and no such right of
rescission, set-off counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect
thereto;
(f) Insurance Policies in Effect. The fire and casualty insurance policy
(either in the form of the original policy, an original binder or original
certificate of insurance) covering the mortgaged property (1) affords (and will
afford) sufficient insurance against fire and such other risks as are usually
insured against in the broad form of extended coverage insurance from time to
time available, as well as insurance against flood hazards if the mortgaged
property is an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as
having special flood hazards; (2) is a standard policy of insurance for the
locale where the mortgaged property is located, is in full force and effect, and
the amount of the insurance is in the amount of the full insurable value of the
mortgaged property on a replacement cost basis, where applicable, or the unpaid
balance of the Mortgage Loans, whichever is less; (3) names (and will name) the
present owner of the mortgaged property as the insured; and (4) contains a
standard mortgagee loss payable clause in favor of Seller;
(g) Compliance with Applicable Laws. Any and all requirements of any
federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury,
truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection,
equal credit opportunity or disclosure laws applicable to the Mortgage Loan have
been complied with, and Seller shall maintain in its possession, available for
Buyer's inspection, and shall deliver to Buyer upon demand, evidence of
compliance with all such requirements;
(h) No Satisfaction of Mortgage. The mortgage has not been satisfied,
canceled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the mortgaged
property has not been released from the lien of the mortgage, in whole or in
part, nor has any instrument been executed that would effect any such release,
cancellation, subordination or rescission;
(i) Location and Type of Mortgaged Property. The mortgaged property is
located in the state identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and consists of a
parcel of real property with a detached single family residence erected thereon,
or a two- to four-family dwelling, or an individual condominium unit in a
low-rise condominium project, or an individual unit in a planned unit
development and no residence or dwelling is a mobile home or a manufactured
dwelling. No portion of the mortgaged property is used for commercial purposes
other than as to mixed-use properties which include one to four dwellings;
(j) Valid First Lien. The mortgage is a valid, subsisting and
enforceable first or second lien on the mortgaged property, including all
buildings on the mortgaged property and all installations and mechanical,
electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems located in or annexed
to such buildings, and all additions, alterations and replacements made at any
time with respect to the foregoing. The lien of the mortgage is subject only to:
(1) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments
not yet due and payable;
2
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(2) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way,
easements and other matters of the public record as of the
date of recording acceptable to mortgage lending
institutions generally and specifically referred to in the
lender's title insurance policy delivered to the
originator of the Mortgage Loan and (i) referred to or to
otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the
originator of the Mortgage Loan or (ii) which do not
adversely affect the appraised value of the mortgaged
property set forth in such appraisal; and
(3) other matters to which like properties are commonly
subject which do not materially interfere with the
benefits of the security intended to be provided by the
mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of
the related mortgaged property.
Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and
delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid,
subsisting and enforceable first or second lien and first or second priority
security interest on the property described therein and Seller has full right to
pledge and assign the same to Buyer or its designee (including the Custodian).
The mortgaged property was not, as of the date of origination of the Mortgage
Loan, subject to a mortgage, deed of trust, deed to secured debt or other
security instrument creating a lien subordinate to the lien of the mortgage;
(k) Validity of Mortgage Documents. The mortgage note and the mortgage
are genuine, and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker
thereof enforceable, in accordance with its terms. All parties to the mortgage
note and the mortgage had legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to
execute and deliver the mortgage note and the mortgage, and the mortgage note
and the mortgage have been duly and properly executed by such parties;
(l) Full Disbursement of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Mortgage Loan
have been fully disbursed and there is no requirement for future advances
thereunder, and any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or
off-site improvement and as to disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have
been complied with. All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making or closing
the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the mortgage were paid, and the mortgagor
is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due under the mortgage note
or mortgage;
(m) Ownership. Seller is the sole owner of record and holder of the
Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan is not assigned or pledged except as provided
in this Agreement, and Seller has good and marketable title thereto, and has
full right to pledge and assign the Mortgage Loan to Buyer or its designee
(including the Custodian) free and clear of any encumbrance, equity,
participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest, and
has full right and authority subject to no interest or participation of, or
agreement with, any other party, to sell and assign each Mortgage Loan pursuant
to this Agreement;
3
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(n) Doing Business. Seller and any originator of a Purchased Mortgage
Loan is (or, during the period in which such party held and disposed of any
interest in the Mortgage Loan, was) (1) in compliance with any and all
applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the state wherein the mortgaged
property is located, and (2) organized under the laws of such state, or (3)
qualified to do business in such state to the extent the failure to qualify
could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely impact a Purchased
Mortgage Loan or its enforceability, or (4) federal savings and loan
associations or national banks having principal offices in such state, or (5)
not doing business in such state;
(o) LTV, PMI Policy. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Buyer and
Seller, no Mortgage Loan has a LTV of more than 90%. The original LTV of the
Mortgage Loan either was not more than 80% or the excess over 75% is and will be
insured as to payment defaults by a policy with respect to each Mortgage Loan
having primary mortgage guaranty insurance issued by a generally accepted
insurance carrier (a "PMI Policy"), such PMI Policy insures the original LTV of
such Mortgage Loan over 75% as to payment defaults until the LTV thereof is
reduced to 75%. All provisions of such PMI Policy have been and are being
complied with, such policy is in full force and effect, and all premiums due
thereunder have been paid. Any Mortgage Loan subject to a PMI Policy obligates
the mortgagor thereunder to maintain the PMI Policy and to pay all premiums and
charges in connection therewith. No more than 5% of the Mortgage Loans, by
aggregate principal balance, have original LTVs of more than 85% and no PMI
Policy;
(p) Title Insurance. The Mortgage Loan is covered by either (i) an
attorney's opinion of title and abstract of title the form and substance of
which is acceptable to mortgage lending institutions making mortgage loans in
the area where the mortgaged property is located or (ii) an ALTA lender's title
insurance policy or other generally acceptable form of policy of insurance,
issued by a title insurer qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the
mortgaged property is located, insuring Seller, its successors and assigns, as
to the first or second priority lien of the mortgage in the original principal
amount of the Mortgage Loan, subject only to the exceptions contained in clauses
(1), (2) and (3) of paragraph (j) above. Seller is the sole insured of such
lender's title insurance policy, and such lender's title insurance policy is in
full force and effect and will be in force and effect upon the consummation of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No claims have been made under
such lender's title insurance policy, and no prior holder of the mortgage,
including Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the
coverage of such lender's title insurance policy;
(q) No Defaults. There are no defaults, breaches, violations or events
of acceleration, except payments not more than one payment past due, existing
under the mortgage or the mortgage note and neither Obligor nor its respective
predecessors have waived any default, breach, violation or event of
acceleration;
(r) No Mechanics' Liens. There are no mechanics' or similar liens or
claims which have been filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are
outstanding that under the law could give rise to such liens) affecting the
mortgage d property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate
with, the lien of the Mortgage;
4
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(s) Location of Improvements; No Encroachments. All improvements which
were considered in determining the appraised value of the mortgaged property lay
wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the mortgaged
property and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the mortgaged
property. No improvement located on or being part of the mortgaged property is
in violation of any applicable zoning law or regulation;
(t) Origination; Payment Terms. The principal balance at the time of
purchase by Buyer was no more than $500,000. The documents, instruments and
agreements submitted for loan underwriting were not falsified and contain no
untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make the information and statements therein
not misleading. With respect to adjustable rate Mortgage Loans, the mortgage
interest rate is adjusted periodically on each interest rate adjustment date to
equal the index plus the gross margin, rounded up or down to the nearest 1/8%,
subject to the mortgage interest rate cap. With respect to fixed rate Mortgage
Loans, the mortgage note is payable each month in equal monthly installments of
principal and interest. With respect to adjustable rate Mortgage Loans,
installments of interest are subject to change due to the adjustments to the
mortgage interest rate on each interest rate adjustment date, with interest
calculated and payable in arrears, sufficient to amortize the Mortgage Loan
fully by the stated maturity date, over an original term of not more than thirty
years from commencement of amortization.
(u) Customary Provisions. The mortgage contains customary and
enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder
thereof adequate for the realization against the mortgaged property of the
benefits of the security provided thereby, including, (i) in the case of a
mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee's sale, and (ii) otherwise by
judicial foreclosure. There is no homestead or other exemption available to a
mortgagor which would interfere with the right to sell the mortgaged property at
a trustee's sale or the right to foreclose the mortgage;
(v) Occupancy of the Mortgaged Property. As of the related Purchase Date
the mortgaged property is lawfully occupied under applicable law. All
inspections, licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with
respect to all occupied portions of the mortgaged property and, with respect to
the use and occupancy of the same, including but not limited to certificates of
occupancy and fire underwriting certificates, have been made or obtained from
the appropriate authorities;
(w) No Additional Collateral. The mortgage note is not and has not been
secured by any collateral except the lien of the corresponding mortgage and the
security interest of any applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage
referred to in (j) above;
(x) Deeds of Trust. In the event the mortgage constitutes a deed of
trust, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been
properly designated and currently so serves and is named in the mortgage, and no
fees or expenses are or will become payable by Buyer to the trustee under the
deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee's sale after default by the
mortgagor;
5
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(y) Acceptable Investment. Seller has no knowledge of any circumstances
or conditions with respect to the mortgage, the mortgaged property, the
mortgagor or the mortgagor's credit standing that can reasonably be expected to
cause private institutional investors to regard the Mortgage Loan as an
unacceptable investment, cause the Mortgage Loan to become delinquent, or
adversely affect the value or marketability of the Mortgage Loan;
(z) Purchase of Mortgage Documents. The Mortgage File and any other
documents required by Buyer to be delivered for the Mortgage Loan by Seller
under this Agreement have been delivered to the Custodian. Seller is in
possession of a complete, true and accurate mortgage file except for such
documents the originals of which have been delivered to the Buyer or its
designee (including the Custodian);
(aa) Transfer of Mortgage Loans. The assignment of mortgage is in
recordable form and is acceptable for recording under the laws of the
jurisdiction in which the mortgaged property is located;
(ab) Due on Sale. The Mortgage contains an enforceable provision for the
acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan
in the event that the mortgaged property is sold or transferred without the
prior written consent of the mortgagee thereunder;
(ac) No Buydown Provisions; No Graduated Payments or Contingent
Interests. The Mortgage Loan does not contain provisions pursuant to which
monthly payments are paid or partially paid with funds deposited in any separate
account established by Seller, the mortgagor or anyone on behalf of the
mortgagor, or paid by any source other than the mortgagor nor does it contain
any other similar provisions currently in effect which may constitute a
"buydown" provision. The Mortgage Loan is not a graduated payment mortgage loan
and the Mortgage Loan does not have a shared appreciation or other contingent
interest feature;
(ad) Consolidation of Future Advances. Any future advances made prior to
the Purchase Date have been consolidated with the outstanding principal amount
secured by the mortgage, and the secured principal amount, as consolidated,
bears a single interest rate and single repayment term. The lien of the mortgage
securing the consolidated principal amount is expressly insured as having first
and second lien priority by a title insurance policy or an endorsement to the
policy insuring the mortgagee's consolidated interest or by other title evidence
acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC. The consolidated principal amount floes not exceed
the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan;
(ae) Mortgaged Property Undamaged. There is no proceeding pending or
threatened for the total or partial condemnation of the mortgaged property. The
mortgaged property is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth movement,
windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty so as to affect adversely the value
of the mortgaged property as security for the Mortgage Loan or the use for which
the premises were intended;
6
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(af) Collection Practices; Escrow Deposits: Interest Rate Adjustments.
The origination and collection practices used with respect to the Mortgage Loan
have been in all respects in accordance with industry custom and practice, and
have been in all respects legal and proper. With respect to escrow deposits and
escrow payments, all such payments are in the possession of Seller and there
exist no deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary arrangements
for repayment thereof have not been made. All escrow payments have been
collected in full compliance with state and federal law. If an escrow of funds
has been established, it is not prohibited by applicable law and has been
established in an amount sufficient to pay for every item that remains unpaid
and has been assessed but is not yet due and payable. No escrow deposits or
escrow payments or other charges or payments due Seller have been capitalized
under the Mortgage or the mortgage note. All mortgage interest rate adjustments
have been made in strict compliance with state and federal law and the terms of
the related mortgage note. Any interest required to be paid pursuant to state
and local law has been properly paid and credited;
(ag) Appraisal. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that has been
outstanding for five (5) years or less, the mortgage file contains an appraisal
of the related mortgaged property signed prior to the approval of the Mortgage
Loan application by a qualified appraiser, duly appointed by the originator of
the Mortgage Loan, who had no interest, direct or indirect in the mortgaged
property or in any loan made on the security thereof, other than as an employee
of the lender, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or
disapproval of the Mortgage Loan, and the appraisal and appraiser both satisfy
the requirements of Title XI of the Federal Institutions Reform, Recovery, and
Enforcement Act of 1989 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, all as in
effect on the date the Mortgage Loan was originated;
(ah) Soldiers' and Sailors' Relief Act. The mortgagor has not notified
Seller, and Seller has no knowledge of any relief requested or allowed to the
mortgagor under the Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940; and
(ai) Environmental Matters. The mortgaged property is free from any and
all toxic or hazardous substances and there exists no violation of any local,
state or federal environmental law, rule or regulation.

5
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
promptly after receipt thereof. In the event of any conflict between the terms
of such Confirmation and this Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail except in

Confirmation shall prevail;

against the payment by the Seller of the Repurchase Price (less any amount then
payable and unpaid by Buyer to Seller pursuant to paragraph 5 hereof).
4. Margin Maintenance
(a) If at any time the aggregate Market Value of all Purchased
Securities then subject to any Transaction in which a particular party hereto is
acting as Buyer is less than the aggregate of the Buyer's Margin Amounts for all
such Transactions (the difference between such amounts being a "Margin
Deficit"), then Buyer may by notice to Seller in such Transactions require
Seller to pay money or, at Seller's option, to transfer additional Securities
reasonably acceptable to Buyer ("Additional Purchased Securities"), so that the
aggregate Market Value of the Purchased Securities, including any such
Additional Purchased Securities, will thereupon equal or exceed an amount which
equals the aggregate of the Buyer's Margin Amounts for all such Transaction in
which such Buyer is acting as Seller. For the purposes of this calculation all
sums not denominated in the Base Currency shall be converted into the Base
Currency on the relevant date at the Spot Rate.
(b) If at any time the aggregate Market Value of all Purchased
Securities then subject to any Transaction in which a particular party hereto is
acting as Seller exceeds the aggregate of the Seller's Margin Amounts for all
such Transaction (the difference between such amounts being a "Margin Excess"),
then Seller may by notice to Buyer in such Transactions require Buyer to pay
money or, at Buyer's option, to transfer Equivalent Securities to Seller in an
amount such that the aggregate Market Value of all Purchased Securities will
thereupon not exceed an amount which equals the aggregate of
6
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
the Seller's Margin Amounts for all such Transactions plus the amount of the
Margin Excess (if any) as of such date in respect of all the Transactions in
which such Seller is acting as Buyer. For the purposes of this calculation all
sums not denominated in the Base Currency shall be converted into the Base
Currency on the relevant date at the Spot Rate.
(c) Any money paid or Securities transferred pursuant to this
paragraph shall be attributed as between all the different Transactions then
outstanding as shall be agreed upon by Buyer and Seller and, failing such
agreement, as determined by the party receiving such money or Securities. Any
money paid shall be paid in the currency agreed therefor between Buyer and
Seller and failing such agreement in the Base Currency.
(d) The parties may agree, with respect to any or all
Transactions, that their respective rights under sub-paragraphs (a) and (b) of
this paragraph may be exercised only where a Margin Deficit or a Margin Excess
exceeds an agreed amount or an agreed percentage of the aggregate of the
Repurchase Prices of the relevant Transactions.
(e) The parties may agree that their respective rights under
sub-paragraphs (a) and (b) of this paragraph (to require the elimination of a
Margin Deficit or a Margin Excess, as the case may be) may be exercised in
respect of an individual Transaction whenever a Margin Deficit or Margin Excess
(calculated on the basis that that Transaction is the only Transaction then
outstanding) exists with respect to it.
(f) Where the Seller or Buyer becomes obliged under either of
sub- paragraph (a) or (b) of this paragraph to pay money or to transfer
Securities or Equivalent Securities, it shall pay or transfer the same within
the minimum period specified in Annex I or, if no period is there specified,
such minimum period as is customarily required for the settlement or delivery of
money, Securities or Equivalent Securities of the relevant kind.
5. Income Payments
Unless otherwise agreed, where a particular Transaction's Term
extends over an Income payment date in respect of any Securities subject to that
Transaction, Buyer shall on the date such Income is paid transfer to or credit
to the account of Seller an amount equal to (and in the same currency as) such
Income payment or payments.
6. Payment and Transfer
(a) Unless otherwise agreed, all money paid hereunder shall be
in immediately available, freely convertible funds of the relevant currency. All
Securities transferred hereunder (i) shall be in suitable form for transfer and
shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in
blank (where required for transfer) and such other documentation as the
transferee party may reasonably request, or (ii) shall be transferred through
the book entry system of Euroclear or CEDEL, or (iii)
7
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
shall be transferred through any other agreed securities clearance system; or
(iv) shall be transferred by any other method mutually acceptable to Seller and
Buyer.
(b) Unless otherwise agreed, all money payable by one party to
the other in respect of any Transaction shall be paid free and clear of, and
without withholding or deduction for, any taxes or duties of whatsoever nature
imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any authority having power
to tax, unless the withholding or deduction of such taxes or duties is required
by law. In that event, unless otherwise agreed, the paying party shall pay such
additional amounts as will result in the net amounts receivable by the other
party (after taking account of such withholding or deduction) being equal to
such amounts as would have been received by it had no such taxes or duties been
required to be withheld or deducted.
(c) Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the parties,
under each Transaction transfer of Purchased Securities by Seller and payment of
Purchase Price payable by Buyer against the transfer of such Purchased
Securities shall be made simultaneously and transfer of Equivalent Securities by
Buyer and payment of Repurchase Price payable by Seller against the transfer of
such Equivalent Securities shall be made simultaneously.
(d) In the case of any Transaction where, pursuant to the
provisions of this Agreement, a party performs an obligation to transfer
Securities or to pay money at a time when the other party, in accordance with
this Agreement, is required to perform an obligation to pay money or transfer
Securities simultaneously with the performance of the first party's obligation
but, nevertheless, the second party's obligation is not performed
simultaneously, the second party shall hold on trust for the first party any
assets (including money or Securities) that it receives from the first party
prior to the performance of its own obligations being completed provided always
that the second party shall be at liberty to dispose of any such assets to the
extent such disposal occurs in the ordinary course of its business and provided
further that any such trust shall terminate upon the completion of the
performance of the aforesaid obligations of the second party or disposal of such
assets whichever shall first occur.
(e) Subject to and without prejudice to the provisions of
sub-paragraph 6(c), either party may from time to time in accordance with market
practice and in recognition of the practical difficulties in arranging
simultaneous delivery of Securities and money waive in relation to any
Transaction its rights under this Agreement to receive simultaneous transfer
and/or payment provided that transfer and/or payment shall, notwithstanding such
waiver, be made on the same day and provided also that no such waiver in respect
of one Transaction shall affect, or bind it in respect of, any other
Transaction.
(f) The parties shall execute and deliver all necessary
documents and take all necessary steps to procure that all right, title and
interest in any Purchased Securities and any Equivalent Securities shall pass to
the party to which transfer is being
8
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
made upon transfer of the same in accordance with this Agreement, free from all
liens, claims, charges and encumbrances.
(g) Notwithstanding the use of expressions such as "Repurchase
Date", "Repurchase Price", "Margin", "Margin Excess" and "Margin Deficit" which
are used to reflect terminology used in the market for transactions of the kind
provided for in this Agreement, all right, title and interest in and to
Securities and money transferred or paid under this Agreement shall pass to the
transferee upon transfer or payment (subject to the trust provided for in
paragraph 6(d) of this Agreement), the obligation of the party receiving
Purchased Securities being an obligation to transfer Equivalent Securities. For
the avoidance of doubt all right, title and interest in and to Securities and
money transferred or paid pursuant to paragraph 4(a) and 4(b) shall pass in like
manner.
(h) Time shall be of the essence in this Agreement.
(i) Subject to paragraph 10 hereof, all amounts in the same
currency payable by each party to the other under any Transaction or hereunder
on the same date shall be combined in a single calculation of a net amount
payable by one party to the other.
(j) Subject to paragraph 10 hereof, all Securities of the same
issue, denomination, currency and series, transferable by each party to the
other under any Transaction or hereunder on the same date shall be combined in a
single calculation of a net quantity of Securities transferable by one party to
the other.
7. Contractual Currency
(a) All the payments made in respect of the Purchase Price or
the Repurchase Price of any Transaction shall be made in the currency of the
Purchase Price (the "Contractual Currency") save as provided in paragraph
10(b)(ii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the payee of any money may, at its
option, accept tender thereof in any other currency, provided, however, that, to
the extent permitted by applicable law, the obligation of the payer to pay such
money will be discharged only to the extent of the amount of original currency
that such payee may, consistent with normal banking procedures, purchase with
such other currency (after deduction of any premium and costs or exchange) for
delivery on the second Business Day following its receipt of such currency.
(b) If for any reason the amount in the original currency
received by a party, including amounts received after conversion of any recovery
under any judgment or order expressed in a currency other than the original
currency, falls short of the amount in the original currency due and payable,
the party required to make the payment will, as a separate and independent
obligation, to the extent permitted by applicable law, immediately transfer such
additional amount in the original currency as may be necessary to compensate for
the shortfall.

(c) If for any reason the amount in the original currency
received by a party exceeds the amount of the original currency due and payable,
the party receiving the transfer will refund promptly the amount of such excess.
8. Substitution
In relation to any Transaction, at any time between the
Purchase Date and the Repurchase Date Seller may, subject to agreement with and
acceptance by Buyer, substitute other Securities for any Purchased Securities,
provided, however, that such substitute Securities shall have a Market Value at
least equal to the Market Value of the Purchased Securities for which they are
substituted as at the date of substitution. Such substitution shall be made by
transfer to Buyer of such other Securities and simultaneous transfer to Seller
of the relevant amount of Equivalent Securities in respect of the Purchased
Securities being substituted. Where either or both of such transfers is or are
settled on a payment against delivery basis the parties shall make such payments
as between each other as will ensure that the aggregate amount paid by each
party equals the aggregate amount received by its. After substitution, the
substituted Securities shall be deemed to be Purchased Securities and the
original Purchased Securities so substituted shall cease to be Purchased
Securities.

case of an Act of Insolvency which is the presentation of a petition for

analogous officer of the Defaulting Party in which case no such notice shall be
required) the non-Defaulting Party serves notice on the Defaulting Party, or (v)

shall be deemed immediately to occur;
11
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(b)(i) the Default Market Values of the Equivalent
Securities to be transferred and the Repurchase Prices to be paid by
each party shall be established by the non-Defaulting Party for all
Transactions as at the Repurchase Date; and
(ii) on the basis of the sums so established, an account
shall be taken (as at the Repurchase Date) of what is due from each
party to the other under this Agreement (on the basis that each party's
claim against the other in respect to transfer to it of Equivalent
Securities under this Agreement equals the Default Market Value
therefor) and the sums due from one party shall be set-off against the
sums due from the other and only the balance of the account shall be
payable (by the party having the claim valued at the lower amount
pursuant to the foregoing) and such balance shall be due and payable on
the Repurchase Date. For the purposes of this calculation, all sums not
denominated in the Base Currency shall be converted into the Base
Currency on the relevant date at the Spot Rate; and
(iii) interest shall accrue (as well after as before
judgment) on any sum payable by the Defaulting Party to the
non-Defaulting Party under this sub- paragraph 10(b) at [certain

Party for the amount of all reasonable legal and other expenses
incurred by the non- Defaulting Party in connection with or as a
consequence of an Event of Default, together with interest thereon at

Transaction, and if greater than LIBOR) the Pricing Rate for the
relevant Transaction; and
(d) the non-Defaulting Party shall have, in addition to its
rights hereunder, any rights otherwise available to it under any other
agreement or applicable law.
Each party shall immediately notify the other if an Event of Default occurs in
relation to it.
11. Withholding of Payment or Delivery
Without prejudice to the provisions of paragraph 10 hereof, in
the case of transfers to be made otherwise than on a payment against delivery
basis, neither party shall be obliged on any Repurchase Date to transfer
Equivalent Securities or to pay the Repurchase Price to the other in respect of
a particular Transaction unless it is satisfied that the other party will pay or
deliver to it on such date the Repurchase Price or, as the case may be, the
relevant Equivalent Securities. If it is not so satisfied it shall by not later
than the time, if any, specified in Annex I notify the other party and request
assurances of that other party's ability to make such delivery or payment to it,
as the case
12
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
may be, and unless that other party gives such assurances which are reasonably
adequate to the notifying party, the notifying party shall (provided it is
itself in a position, and willing, to perform its own obligations) be entitled
to withhold delivery or payment to the other party (but where it exercises such
entitlement it shall immediately give notice thereof to the other party) and in
this event the procedures set out in paragraph 10(b) hereof shall have effect
and be applied (on the basis that such other party is the Defaulting Party) but
only in relation to the particular Transaction in question and for this purpose
the Contractual Currency of that Transaction shall be treated as the Base
Currency.
12. Interest
Without prejudice to the provisions of paragraph 10 hereof and
to the extent permitted by applicable law, if any sum of money payable hereunder
or under any Transaction is not paid when due, interest shall accrue on such
unpaid sum as a separate debt at the greater of the Pricing Rate for the
Transaction to which such sum relates (where such sum is referable to a
Transaction) and [certain confidential information has been omitted and filed
separately with the Commission pursuant to a Request for Confidential Treatment]
on a 360 day year basis, or a 365 day year basis, as shall have been agreed
for this purpose, for the actual number of days during the period from and
including the date on which payment was due to, but excluding, the date of
payment.

Agreement and will enter into each Transaction hereunder in consideration of and
in reliance upon the fact that, all Transactions hereunder constitute a single
business and contractual relationship and have been made in consideration of
each other. Accordingly, each of Buyer and Seller agrees (i) to perform all of
its obligations in respect of each Transaction hereunder, and that a default in
the performance of any such obligations shall constitute a default by it in
respect of all Transactions hereunder, and (ii) that payments, deliveries and
other transfers made by either of them in respect of any Transaction shall be
deemed to have been made in consideration of payments, deliveries and other
transfers in respect of any other Transactions hereunder.

party to whom any notice or other communication is to be given hereunder, all

respective addresses set forth in Annex III hereto or to such other person,
address, telex number or telefax number as either party may specify by notice in
writing to the other.

referred to above;

posting it;
(c) if sent by air mail, six days after posting it;

transmission is received by a responsible employee of the recipient in
legible form, it being agreed that the burden of proving receipt will
be on the sender and will not be met by a transmission report generated
by the sender's facsimile machine.
15. Entire Agreement; Severability
This Agreement shall supersede any existing agreements between
the parties containing general terms and conditions for Transactions. Each
provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate from any other
provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the
unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement.
16. Non-assignability; Termination of Agreement
The rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement
and under any Transaction shall not be assigned, charged or otherwise dealt with
by either party without the prior written consent of the other party. Subject to
the foregoing, this Agreement and any Transactions shall be binding upon and
shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and
assigns.
This Agreement may be terminated by either party upon giving
written notice to the other, except that this Agreement shall, notwithstanding
such notice, remain applicable to any Transactions then outstanding.
All remedies hereunder shall survive Termination in respect of
the relevant Transaction and termination of this Agreement.
17. Governing Law

jurisdiction.

No express or implied waiver of any Event of Default be either
party shall constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default and no exercise of
any remedy hereunder by any party shall constitute a waiver of its right to
exercise any other remedy hereunder. No modification or waiver of any provision
of this Agreement and no consent by any party to a departure herefrom shall be
effective unless and until such modification, waiver or consent shall be in
writing and duly executed by both of the parties hereto. Without limitation on
any of the foregoing, the failure to give a notice pursuant to sub-paragraphs
4(a) or 4(b) hereof will not constitute a waiver of any right to do so at a
later date.
19. Waiver of Immunity
Each party hereto hereby waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, all immunity (whether on the basis of sovereignty
or otherwise) from jurisdiction, attachment (both before and after judgment) and
execution to which it might otherwise be entitled in any action or proceeding in
the Courts of England or of any other country or jurisdiction, relating in any
way to this Agreement or any Transaction, and agrees that it will not raise,

7. Additional Representations. In addition to the representations and
warranties set forth in paragraph 9, Seller additionally represents and

other adverse claims and upon transfer of such Securities to
Buyer, Buyer shall (A) be the owner of such Securities free of
any adverse claim or (B) obtain a valid, perfected first
priority security interest in such Securities; and
(ii) as of the date Buyer receives financial statements from Seller
and as of the date that Buyer and Seller enter into a
Transaction, there has been no material adverse change in
Seller's financial condition, business or prospects not
disclosed to Buyer since the date of such financial statements
and such financial statements accurately represent the
financial condition of Seller as of the date and for the
periods covered thereby.
8. Additional Remedies. In addition to the rights set forth in paragraph
10, Buyer shall have the following additional rights if an Event of
Default occurs with respect to Seller when Seller acts as Seller:
(a) After one (1) Business Day's notice to Seller (which notice
need not be given if an Act of Insolvency shall have
occurred), Buyer may immediately sell any or all Purchased
Securities, in public or private sales as Buyer may deem
appropriate and at such price(s) as Buyer deems satisfactory,
and apply the proceeds thereof to the aggregate unpaid
Repurchase Price and any other amounts owing by Seller
hereunder. Buyer may elect, in lieu of so selling such
Purchased Securities, to give Seller a credit for such
Purchased Securities in the amount of the Default Market Value
as of the date of such election against the amounts owing by
it to Buyer.
(b) Buyer and Seller agree and acknowledge that the Purchased
Securities constitute collateral that may decline rapidly in
value and may have limited or no liquidity. Accordingly,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement or
this Annex I, Buyer shall not be required to give notice to
Seller prior to exercising any remedy in respect of an Event
of Default. If no prior notice is given, Buyer shall give
notice to Seller of the remedies effected by Buyer promptly
thereafter.
(c) Buyer shall have the right to proceed against any assets of
Seller which may be in the possession of Buyer, any affiliate
of Buyer or any of their designees, including the right to
liquidate such assets and to set off the proceeds against all
amounts owing by Seller to Buyer under the Agreement. In
addition, Buyer may setoff the proceeds from the liquidation
or credit of the Purchased Securities against any and all
5
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
amounts or obligations owing by Seller to Buyer under the
Agreement, any Transaction and any other agreement between the
parties, whether or not such obligations are then due, without
prejudice to Buyer's right to recover any deficiency. Any
cash, proceeds or property in excess of any amounts due to
Buyer shall be returned to Seller after satisfaction of all
obligations of Seller to Buyer.
9. Covenants. Seller agrees it shall take such actions, at its own
expense, as may be necessary to cause Purchased Securities which are in
physical form to be re- registered in the name of Buyer on or within
five (5) days after the Purchase Date of a Transaction, but, in any
event, no later than the record date for the next payment due under
such securities. Seller agrees it shall, from time to time upon Buyer's
request, (i) deliver to Buyer its then most recent audited or interim
financial statements and (ii) take such action, at its own expense, as
Buyer may deem necessary or advisable to confirm, evidence, validate or
perfect Buyer's interest in or rights to the Purchased Securities.
10. Payment and Transfer. Paragraph 6(a) is amended by adding the

(a) The Borrower is an organization as set forth in the introductory
paragraph of this Agreement and is duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the state of its organization and
existence, and is duly qualified as a limited partnership in all
jurisdictions wherein the character of the property owned or leased or the
5
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
nature of the business transacted by it makes qualification as a foreign
organization necessary.
(b) The execution and delivery of the Agreement by Borrower and the
performance by Borrower of the obligations to be performed by it hereunder
have been duly authorized by all necessary partnership or other similar
action. Prior to the first Settlement Date, the Borrower shall deliver to

and a good standing certificate for the state of its organization and
existence and, as requested by Lender, for each state in which Borrower is

registered to do business.
(c) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Borrower and the
performance by Borrower of the obligations to be performed by it hereunder
do not, and will not, violate any provision of any law, rule, regulation,
order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award presently
in effect having applicability to Borrower or to the partnership agreement
of the Borrower. All parties which have had any interest in the Mortgages,
whether as mortgagee, assignee (other than Lender or assignee of Lender) or
pledgee are (or during the period in which they held and disposed of such
interest, were) in compliance with all applicable licensing requirements of
the federal, state and local governments wherein the Subject Property is
located.
(d) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Borrower and the
performance by Borrower of the obligations to be performed by it hereunder
do not and will not result in a breach of or constitute a default under any
indenture or loan or credit agreement or any other agreement, lease or
instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which it or its properties
may be bound or affected.
(e) This Agreement constitutes, when duly executed and delivered by
Borrower, a legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower,
enforceable against Borrower according to its terms, except as such
enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
receivership, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' rights in
general, including equitable remedies.
(f) There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the
knowledge of Borrower, threatened against or affecting Borrower or the
properties of Borrower before any court or governmental department,
commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or foreign,

6
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
adverse effect on the financial condition, properties or operations of
Borrower. Any consent by Lender to make Advances for the origination of
Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement shall automatically terminate if:
(i) a decree or order of a court or agency supervisory authority having
jurisdiction for the appointment of a conservator or receivers or
liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets
and liabilities, bankruptcy proceeding or any similar proceedings, or for
the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered
against Borrower and such decree or order shall have remained in force
undischarged or unstated for a period of 60 days; or (ii) Borrower shall
consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in
any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and
liabilities, bankruptcy or similar proceedings relating to Borrower or
relating to all or substantially all of its property; or (iii) Borrower
shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due,
file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency,
reorganization or bankruptcy statute, make an assignment for the benefit of
its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations.
(g) Borrower shall assure that all capital contributions required to
be made by partners of Borrower under any partnership or capital
contribution agreements of Borrower shall be made in timely fashion and
that the aggregate of all capital contributions made by partners of
Borrower is at least $3,500,000 by August 31, 1994.
(h) Borrower shall not permit its operations in any month to result in
a net loss, as shown on the books of the Borrower or determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting practices. However, if the
Borrower is pooling for securitization, Lender shall permit Borrower to
compute and report to Lender as part of results of operations the value of
hypothetical revenues from unrealized gains on mortgages held for future
securitization. Borrower shall inform Lender of its intent to accumulate
loans for securitization before it begins any pooling of loans. Thereafter
until receipt of securitization proceeds, Borrower shall monthly mark to
market all loans held for securitization and, solely for purposes of this
paragraph, recognize as the results of operation any change in the market
value of such loans since the end of the preceding month or, if a loan was
acquired within the preceding month, since the date of acquisition. The
market value shall be based on existing prices for sales to purchasers
having valid mortgage purchase agreements with Borrower.

transferred any right or interest in or to the Mortgage Loan and has not
pledged the Mortgage Loan as collateral for any Loan or obligation of

Loan to Lender free and clear of any pledges, liens, claims, encumbrances,
Mortgages, charges, exceptions and/or security interests of any third
parties.
(b) Except as expressly disclosed to and agreed by the Lender in
writing, each Mortgage Loan conforms to: (i) the Underwriting Guidelines

been released from the Mortgage. If the Mortgage Loan is a variable rate
loan, the Borrower represents and warrants as of each Closing Date that all

payment schedules has not been waived by the Borrower or any previous
holder of the Mortgage Loan.

binder or title certificate which is in full force and effect; which has an
insurance limit at least as great as the outstanding principal balance of
the Mortgage Loan; which names the Borrower, its successors and assigns as

any and all requirements as to completion of on-site and off-site
improvements and disbursement of any escrow funds therefore have been
complied with.

in average repair and there is no proceeding pending or threatened for the

violation or event of acceleration.
(o) The Borrower has no knowledge of any fact as to any Mortgage Loan
which it has failed to disclose which would materially and adversely affect
the value or marketability of such Mortgage Loans.
(p) The Borrower has no knowledge of any impediments to title that

Property.
(q) Where required by state law, the Borrower or Borrower's
predecessor in ownership of the Mortgage Loan has filed for record a
request for notice of action by a senior lienholder under a senior lien,
and the Borrower has notified any superior lienholder in writing of the
existence of the Mortgage Loan and requested notification of any action to
be taken against the Mortgagor by the superior lienholder. The Borrower
shall, upon request of the Lender,
10
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
cooperate in recording a new request for action in favor of the Lender and
in providing superior lienholder with written requests for notification to
the Lender of action against the Mortgagor.

(i) survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any
Advance by Lender; (ii) inure to the benefit of Lender; and (iii) be deemed to

6.2 Interests on Advances. Subject to Section 6.3 hereof, Borrower shall
pay to Lender on the fifteenth Business Day of each month interest on all
Advances outstanding during the prior month computed at an annual rate equal to
Lender's Base Rate in effect on the first Business Day of the prior month plus
[certain confidential information has been omitted and filed separately
with the Commission pursuant to a Request for Confidential Treatment]
per annum.
6.3 Failure to Repay Advances. In the event Borrower fails to reimburse
Lender when required under this Agreement, such repayment is considered to be
delinquent and the interest payable to Lender on the amount of all such
delinquent reimbursements shall be calculated at an annual rate equal to
Lender's Base Rate in effect on the first business day of the prior month, plus
[certain confidential information has been omitted and filed separately
with the Commission pursuant to a Request for Confidential Treatment]
percent per annum.
6.4 Computation of Interest. Interest on Advances shall be computed on the
basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the period
during which it accrues. In computing the interest on any Advances, the date of
making the Advance shall be included and the date of repayment shall be
excluded; provided, that if an Advance is repaid on the same day on which it is
made, one day's interest shall be paid on that Advance.

such Mortgage Loan, such Mortgage Loan shall no longer constitute Eligible
Collateral and Borrower shall repay Lender the amount of any Advance made with
respect to such Mortgage Loan in an amount equal to such Advance. Such repayment
shall be paid to Lender by wire transfer in immediately available funds on the
Settlement Date.
In addition, if any Mortgage Loan is not purchased within 60 days after

occurred and be continuing, Borrower shall have the right to collect for its own
account all payments (but not proceeds of sale of Mortgage Loans) of principal,
interest, penalties and other amounts due or to become due on Mortgage Loans and
pledged and hypothecated under this Agreement.
7.3 Lender Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default, Borrower appoints Lender as Borrower's attorney-in-fact, with full

documents, in the name of Borrower or otherwise, as Lender may deem necessary or
advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, which appointment is
coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. Lender agrees promptly to notify

case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now
or hereafter in effect, or shall consent to the entry of an order for
relief in an involuntary case, or to the conversion to an involuntary case,
under any such law, or shall consent to the appointment of or taking

amount of and accrued interest on the note shall automatically become due
and payable, without presentment, demand or other requirements of any kind,
all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower, and the obligation of
Lender to make Advances shall thereupon terminate.
(b) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may do any of
the following:
(i) Foreclose upon or otherwise enforce its security interest and
lien on the Collateral to secure all payments and performance of
obligations owed by Borrower under Borrower's Note and this Agreement.
(ii) Notify all obligors of Collateral that the Collateral has
been assigned to Lender and that all payments thereon are to be made
directly to Lender or such other party as may be designated by Lender;
settle, compromise or release, in whole or in part, any amounts owing
on the Collateral, any portion of the
16
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Collateral, by any such obligor on terms acceptable to Lender; enforce
payment and prosecute any action or proceeding with respect to any and
all Collateral; and, where any such Collateral is in default,
foreclose on, and enforce security interests in, such Collateral by
any available judicial procedure or without judicial process and sell
property acquired as a result of any such foreclosure in a
commercially reasonable manner.
(iii) Cause any disposition of all or any portion of the
Collateral to be conducted immediately upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default (or immediately upon the expiration of any period of delay
or notice required by law) or Lender may delay any such sale or other
disposition for such period of time as Lender deems to be in its best
interest. Lender agrees to conduct any such sale or disposition in a
commercially reasonable manner. Should Lender decide to conduct more
than one such sale or disposition, Lender may at its option cause the
same to be conducted simultaneously or successively on the same day or
upon such different days or at such different times and in such order
as Lender may deem to be in its best interests. Borrower waives, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, any prejudice resulting to it
from any such decision.
(iv) Sell the Collateral in one or more lots, at one or more
times, at public or private sales, in an established market therefor
or otherwise, and with or without notice of any kind, as Lender may
elect, at such prices and on such terms, as to cash or credit, as
Lender may deem proper, and in the case of pledged Mortgages, with or
without servicing rights, provided that notwithstanding any provision
hereof, five Business Days' notice shall be given to Borrower of all
sales of all or any portion of the Collateral. Any sale may be made at
any place designated by Lender, and Lender shall have the right to
become the lender at any such sale which is open to the public. If
notice is given of the public sale of any of the Collateral, it is
agreed that notice shall be satisfactorily given for all purposes if
such notice is published at least once in a newspaper of general
circulation in the vicinity of Borrower and in the regional edition of
The Wall Street Journal, not less than five Business Days prior to
such sale and Lender mails, or causes to be mailed a copy of such
notice to Borrower on or prior to the first publishing date. The
foregoing notice provisions shall not preclude Lender's rights to
foreclose upon the collateral in any other manner permitted under the
Uniform Commercial Code; provided, however, a sale of the Collateral
in accordance with the above notice
17
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
requirements shall be deemed a disposal of the Collateral in a
commercially reasonable manner. Lender shall have the right in
connection with the Collateral either to sell the same as above
provided, or to foreclose, sue upon, or otherwise seek to enforce the
same in its own name or in the name of Borrower as provided herein.
Subject to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, after an Event
of Default shall occur and be continuing, Lender shall have the right
to renew, extend the time of payment of, or otherwise modify, amend,
supplement, settle or compromise, in any manner, any obligations for
the payment of money included in the Collateral, any security therefor
and any other agreements, instruments, claims or choses in action of
any kind, which may be included in the Collateral.
(v) Take possession of all or any portion of the Collateral that
is not already in its possession of Lender and Borrower agrees to
assemble and make available the Collateral to Lender at a convenient
location. Lender may manage and protect the Collateral, do any acts
which Lender deems proper to protect the Collateral as security
hereunder, and sue upon any contract or claim relating to the
Collateral and receive any payments due thereon or any damages
thereunder, and apply all sums received to the payment of the
indebtedness secured hereby in such order as Lender shall determine,
subject to the provisions of section 8.5 hereof. Any such actions of
Lender shall not, absent written ratification by Lender, be deemed to
impose upon Lender any of Borrower's obligations under any contracts.
(vi) Be entitled, without regard to the adequacy of the security
for the indebtedness secured hereby, to the appointment of a receiver
by any court having jurisdiction, without notice, to take possession
of and protect, collect, manage, liquidate, and sell the Collateral or
any portion thereof, collect the payments due with respect to the
Collateral or any portion thereof, and do anything that Lender is
authorized with respect thereto do do.
(vii) Notify all obligors of Collateral that the Collateral has
been assigned to Lender and that all payments thereon are to be made
directly to Lender or such other party as may be designated by Lender;
settle, compromise, or release, in whole or in part, any amounts owing
on the Collateral, any portion of the Collateral or any such obligor
on terms acceptable to Lender; enforce payment and prosecute any
action or proceeding with respect to any and all Collateral; and
18
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
where any such Collateral is in default, foreclose on, and enforce
security interests in, such Collateral by any available judicial
procedure or without judicial process and sell property acquired as a
result of any such foreclosure in a commercially reasonable manner.
(viii) Act, or contract with a third party to act, as servicer of
each item of Collateral requiring servicing with any such third
party's fees to be paid by Borrower, deducted from payments received,
or deducted from Borrower's account, as Lender may elect in its sole
discretion.
(ix) Exercise all rights and remedies of a secured creditor under
the Uniform Commercial Code, including, but not limited to, selling
the Collateral at public or private sale.
(x) Exercise any and all other rights and remedies of Lender as
it shall deem appropriate at law, in equity, or otherwise.
(c) All remedies are cumulative. Any failure on the part of Lender to
exercise or any delay in exercising any right hereunder shall not operate
as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Lender of
any right hereunder preclude any other exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right.
8.3 Application of Proceeds. Any money collected by Lender pursuant to this
Section 8 (whether upon voluntary payment, foreclosure or otherwise) shall be
promptly applied as follows unless otherwise required by provisions of
applicable law:
(a) First, to the payment of all expenses incurred by Lender in
enforcing its rights under this Agreement, including all costs and expenses
of collection, attorneys' fees, court costs and foreclosure expenses.
(b) Next, to the payment of all principal of and interest on Advances.
(c) Next, to Borrower.

gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Lender Indemnitee or, as to any
particular Mortgage Loan, to any act committed by Lender after such Mortgage
Loan is sold to Lender, its assignee or successor.
(b) If any legal proceeding shall be instituted, or any claim asserted in
respect of which a Lender Indemnitee may seek indemnification from Borrower, the
Borrower shall have the right, at its option and at its own expense, to be
represented by counsel of its choice and to defend against, negotiate, settle,
or otherwise deal with such proceeding or claim.
9.2 (a) Lender hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, defend and hold
harmless Borrower, its subsidiaries and affiliates and assignees, and all of
their agents, employees, officers and directors (collectively, the "Borrower
Indemnitees") from and against any and all liabilities, costs, expenses,

Borrower Indemnitee.
(b) If any legal proceeding shall be instituted, or any claim asserted in
respect of which a Borrower Indemnitee may seek indemnification from Lender, the
Lender shall have the right, at its option and at its own expense, to be
represented by counsel of its choice and to defend against, negotiate, settle,
or otherwise deal with such proceeding or claim.

performance thereof.
14.6 Parties. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the
benefit of, the successors and permitted assigns of Borrower and Lender.
14.7 Governing Law. This Agreement shall, in all respects, be governed by,

EXHIBIT B
UNLIMITED GUARANTY OF PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE
For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, and for the purpose of seeking to induce THE FIRST
NATIONAL BANK OF BOSTON, a national banking association (hereinafter referred to
as 'Lender') to extend credit or otherwise provide financial accommodations to
IMC Corporation of America, a Delaware corporation (hereinafter, with any
successor, assign, or replacement hereafter approved by the Bank, in its
discretion, referred to as 'Customer'), which extension of credit and provision
of financial accommodations will be to the direct interest, advantage and
benefit of the undersigned. Industry Mortgage Company, L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership having its principal address at 3450 Buschwood Park Drive, Suite
250, Tampa, Florida 33618 (hereinafter referred to as 'Guarantor'). Guarantor
does hereby agrees as follows:
1. GUARANTY OF PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE. The Guarantor hereby
unconditionally guarantees to the Bank the full and punctual payment when due
(whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), and the performance, of all
liabilities, agreements and other obligations of the Customer to the Bank,
whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent due or to become due, secured
or unsecured, now existing or hereafter arising or acquired (whether by way of
discount, letter of credit, lease, loan, overdraft or otherwise) (the
'Obligations'). This Guaranty is an absolute, unconditional and continuing
guaranty of the full and punctual payment and performance of the Obligations and
not of their collectibility only and is in no way conditioned upon any
requirement that the Bank first attempt to collect any of the Obligations from
the Customer or resort to any security or other means of obtaining their
payment. Should the Customer default in the payment or performance of any of the
Obligations, the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall become immediately
due and payable to the Bank, without demand or notice of any nature, all of
which are expressly waived by the Guarantor. Payments by the Guarantor hereunder
may be required by the Bank on any number of occasions.
2. GUARANTOR'S AGREEMENT TO PAY. The Guarantor further agrees, as the
principal obligor and not as a guarantor only, to pay to the Bank, on demand,
all costs and expenses (including court costs and legal expenses) incurred or
expended by the Bank in connection with the Obligations, this Guaranty and the
enforcement thereof together with interest on amounts recoverable under this
Guaranty from the time such amounts become due until payment, [Certain
confidential information has been omitted and filed separately with the
Commission pursuant to a Request for Confidential Treatment.] provided that if
such interest exceeds the maximum amount permitted to be paid under applicable
law, then such interest shall be reduced to such maximum permitted amount.
3. UNLIMITED GUARANTY. The liability of the Guarantor hereunder shall be
unlimited.
4. WAIVERS BY GUARANTOR; BANK'S FREEDOM TO ACT. The Guarantor agrees that
the Obligations will be paid and performed strictly in accordance with their
respective
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
terms regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in
effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Bank
with respect thereto. The Guarantor waives presentment, demand, protest, notice
of acceptance, notice of Obligations incurred and all other notices of any
kind, all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay,
moratorium law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, any right to
require the marshalling of assets of the Customer, and all suretyship defenses
generally. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor
agrees to the provisions of any instrument evidencing, securing or otherwise
executed in connection with any Obligation and agrees that the obligations of
the Guarantor hereunder shall not be released or discharged in whole or in part,
or otherwise affected by (i) the failure of the Bank to assert any claim or
demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Customer; (ii) any
extensions or renewals of any Obligation; (iii) any rescissions, waivers,
amendments or modifications of any of the terms or provisions of any agreement
evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any Obligation;
(iv) the substitution or release of any entity primarily or secondarily liable
for any Obligation; (v) the adequacy of any rights the Bank may have against any
collateral or other means of obtaining repayment of the Obligations; (vi) the
impairment of any collateral securing the Obligations, including without
limitation the failure to perfect or preserve any rights the Bank might have in
such collateral or the substitution, exchange, surrender, release, loss or
destruction of any such collateral; or (vii) any other act or omission which
might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantor or otherwise
operate as a release or discharge of the Guarantor, all of which may be done
without notice to the Guarantor.
5. UNENFORCEABILITY OF OBLIGATIONS AGAINST CUSTOMER. If for any reason the
Customer has no legal existence or is under no legal obligation to discharge any
of the Obligations, or if any of the Obligations have become irrecoverable from
the Customer by operation of law or for any other reason, this Guaranty shall
nevertheless be binding on the Guarantor to the same extent as if the Guarantor
at all times had been the principal obligor on all such Obligations. In the
event that acceleration of the time for payment of the Obligations is stayed

other reason, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms
of any agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with
any Obligation shall be immediately due and payable by the Guarantor.
6. SUBROGATION; SUBORDINATION. The Guarantor shall not exercise any rights

the Customer now or hereafter held by the Guarantor is hereby subordinated to
the prior payment in full of the Obligations, provided that so long as no
default in the payment or performance of the Obligations has occurred and is
continuing, or no demand for payment of any of the Obligations has been made
that remains unsatisfied, the Customer may make, and the Guarantor may demand
and accept any scheduled payments of principal of and interest on such
subordinated indebtedness in the amounts at the rates and on the dates specified

that after the occurrence of any default in the payment or performance of the
Obligations, the Guarantor will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to
collect any such indetedness of the Customer to the Guarantor until the
Obligations shall have been paid in full. If, notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, the Guarantor shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect
of such indebtedness, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by
the Guarantor as trustee for the Bank and be paid over to the Bank on account
of the Obligations without affecting in any manner the liability of the
Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty.

hereunder, a continuing lien on and security interest in all securities or other
property belonging to the Guarantor now or hereafter held by the Bank and in all
deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) and other
sums credited by or due from the Bank to the Guarantor or subject to withdrawal
by the Guarantor; and regardless of the adequacy of any collateral or other
means of obtaining repayment of the Obligations, the Bank is hereby authorized
at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Guarantor (any such
notice being expressly waived by the Guarantor) and to the fullest extent
permitted by law, to set off and apply such deposits and other sums against the
obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty, whether or not the Bank shall
have made any demand under this Guaranty and although such obligations may be
contingent or unmatured.

time to time at the request of the Bank, provide to the Bank such financial
information as the Bank may request, including personal financial statements (on
such forms as the Bank may prescribe) and federal and state income tax returns
and such other information relating to the business and affairs of the Guarantor
as the Bank may reasonably request. The Guarantor also agrees, upon demand after
any change in the condition or affairs (financial or otherwise) of the Guarantor
deemed by the Bank to be adverse and material, to secure the payment and
performance of its obligations hereunder by delivering, assigning or
transferring to the Bank or granting the Bank a security interest in additional
collateral of a value and character satisfactory to the Bank, and authorizes the

UNLIMITED GUARANTY OF PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE
For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, and for the purpose of seeking to induce THE FIRST
NATIONAL BANK OF BOSTON, a national banking association (hereinafter referred to
as "Lender") to extend credit or otherwise provide financial accommodations to
IMC Corporation of America, a Delaware corporation (hereafter, with any
successor, assign, or replacement hereafter approved by the Bank, in its
discretion, referred to as "Customer"), which extension of credit and provision
of financial accommodations will be to the direct interest, advantage and
benefit of the undersigned. Industry Mortgage Company, L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership having its principal address at 3450 Buschwood Park Drive, Suite
250, Tampa, Florida 33618 (hereinafter referred to as "Guarantor"), Guarantor
does hereby agree as follows:
1. GUARANTY OF PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE. The Guarantor hereby
unconditionally guarantees to the Bank the full and punctual payment when due
(whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), and the performance, of all
liabilities, agreements and other obligations of the Customer to the Bank,
whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due,
secured or unsecured, now existing or hereafter arising or acquired (whether by
way of discount, letter of credit, loan, overdraft or otherwise) (the
"Obligations"). This Guaranty is an absolute, unconditional and continuing
guaranty of the full and punctual payment and performance of the Obligations and
not of their collectibility only and is in no way conditioned upon any
requirement that the Bank first attempt to collect any of the Obligations from
the Customer or resort to any security or other means of obtaining their
payment. Should the Customer default in the payment or performance of any of the
Obligations, the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall become immediately
due and payable to the Bank, without demand or notice of any nature, all of
which are expressly waived by the Guarantor. Payments by the Guarantor hereunder
may be required by the Bank on any number of occasions.
2. GUARANTOR'S AGREEMENT TO PAY. The Guarantor further agrees, as the
principal obligor and not as a guarantor only, to pay to the Bank, on demand,
all costs and expenses (including court costs and legal expenses) incurred or
expended by the Bank in connection with the Obligations, this Guaranty and the
enforcement thereof, together with interest on amounts recoverable under this
Guaranty from the time such amounts become due until payment, at [certain
confidential information has been omitted and filed separately with the
Commission pursuant to a Request for Confidential Treatment.] provided that if
such interest exceeds the maximum amount permitted to be paid under applicable
law, then such interest shall be reduced to such maximum permitted amount.
3. UNLIMITED GUARANTY. The liability of the Guarantor hereunder shall be
unlimited.
4. WAIVERS BY GUARANTOR: BANK'S FREEDOM TO ACT. The Guarantor agrees that
the Obligations will be paid and performed strictly in accordance with their
respective
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
terms regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in
any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Bank with
respect thereto. The Guarantor waives presentment, demand, protest, notice of
acceptance, notice of Obligations incurred and all other notices of any kind,
all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium
law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the
marshalling of assets of the Customer, and all suretyship defenses generally.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor agrees to the
provisions of any instrument evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in
connection with any Obligation and agrees that the obligations of the Guarantor
hereunder shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise
affected by (i) the failure of the Bank to assert any claim or demand or to
enforce any right or remedy against the Customer; (ii) any extensions or
renewals of any Obligation; (iii) any rescissions, waivers, amendments or
modifications of any of the terms or provisions of any agreement evidencing,
securing or otherwise executed in connection with any Obligation; (iv) the
substitution or release of any entity primarily or secondarily liable for any
Obligation; (v) the adequacy of any rights the Bank may have against any
collateral or other means of obtaining repayment of the Obligations; (vi) the
impairment of any collateral securing the Obligations, including without
limitation the failure to perfect or preserve any rights the Bank might have in
such collateral or the substitution, exchange, surrender, release,, loss or
destruction of any such collateral; or (vii) any other act of omission which
might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantor or otherwise
operate as a release or discharge of the Guarantor, all of which may be done
without notice to the Guarantor.
5. UNENFORCEABILITY OF OBLIGATIONS AGAINST CUSTOMER. If for any reason the
Customer has no legal existence or is under no legal obligation to discharge any
of the Obligations, or if any of the Obligations have become irrecoverable from
the Customer by operation of law or for any other reason, this Guaranty shall
nevertheless be binding on the Guarantor to the same extent as if the Guarantor
at all time has been the principal obligor on all such Obligations. In the event
that acceleration of the time for payment of the Obligations is stayed upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Customer, or for any other
reason, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of
any agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any
Obligation shall be immediately due and payable by the Guarantor.
6. SUBROGATION: SUBORDINATION. The Guarantor shall not exercise any rights
against the Customer arising as a result of payment by the Guarantor hereunder,
by way of subrogation or otherwise, and will not prove any claim in competition
with the Bank or its affiliates in respect of any payment hereunder in
bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings of any nature; the Guarantor will not claim
any set-off or counterclaim against the Customer in respect of any liability of
the Guarantor to the Customer; and the Guarantor waives any benefit of and any
right to participate in any collateral which may be held by the Bank or any such
affiliate. The payment of any amounts due with respect to any indebtedness of
the Customer now or hereafter held by the Guarantor is hereby subordinated to
the prior payment in full of the Obligations, provided that so long as no
default in the payment or performance of the Obligations has occurred and is
continuing, or no demand for payment of any of the Obligations has been made
that remains unsatisfied, the Customer may make, and the Guarantor may demand
and
-2-
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
accept, any scheduled payments of principal of and interest on such subordinated
indebtedness in the amounts, at the rates and on the dates specified in such
instruments, securities or other writings as shall evidence such subordinated
indebtedness. The Guarantor agrees that after the occurrence of any default in
the payment or performance of the Obligations, the Guarantor will not demand,
sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any such indebtedness of the Customer to
the Guarantor until the Obligations shall have been paid in full. If,
notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Guarantor shall collect, enforce or
receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness, such amounts shall be
collected, enforced and received by the Guarantor as trustee for the Bank and be
paid over to the Bank on account of the Obligations without affecting in any
manner the liability of the Guarantor under the other provisions of this
Guaranty.
7. SECURITY: SET OFF. The Guarantor grants to the Bank, as security for the
full and punctual payment and performance of the Guarantor's obligations
hereunder, a continuing lien on and security interest in all securities or other
property belonging to the Guarantor now or hereafter held by the Bank and in all
deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) and other
sums credited by or due from the Bank to the Guarantor or subject to withdrawal
by the Guarantor; and regardless of the adequacy of any collateral or other
means of obtaining repayment of the Obligations, the Bank is hereby authorized
at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Guarantor (any such
notice being expressly waived by the Guarantor) and to the fullest extent
permitted by law, to set off and apply such deposits and other sums against the
obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty, whether or not the Bank shall
have made any demand under this Guaranty and although such obligations may be
contingent or unmatured.
8. FURTHER ASSURANCES. The Guarantor agrees that the Guarantor will, from
time to time at the request of the Bank, provide to the Bank such financial
information as the Bank may request, including personal financial statements (on
such forms as the Bank may prescribe) and federal and state income tax returns
and such other information relating to the business and affairs of the Guarantor
as the Bank may reasonably request. The Guarantor also agrees, upon demand after
any change in the condition or affairs (financial or otherwise) of the Guarantor
deemed by the Bank to be adverse and material, to secure the payment and
performance of its obligations hereunder by delivering, assigning or
transferring to the Bank or granting the Bank a security interest in additional
collateral of a value and character satisfactory to the Bank, and authorizes the
Bank to file any financing statement deemed by the Bank to be necessary or
desirable to perfect any security interest granted by the Guarantor to the Bank,
and as agent for the Guarantor, to sign the name of the Guarantor thereto. The
Guarantor also agrees to do all such things and execute all such documents,
including financing statements, as the Bank may consider necessary or desirable
to give full effect to this Guaranty and to perfect and preserve the rights and
powers of the Bank hereunder.
9. TERMINATION: REINSTATEMENT. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and
effect until the Bank is given written notice of the Guarantor's intention to
discontinue this Guaranty, notwithstanding any intermediate or temporary payment
or settlement of the whole or any part of the Obligations. No such notice shall
be effective unless received and acknowledged by an officer of the Bank at its
head office or at the branch of the Bank where this Guaranty is
-3-
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
given. No such notice shall affect any rights of the Bank or of any affiliate
hereunder including, without limitation, the rights set forth in Sections 4 and
6, with respect to Obligations incurred prior to the receipt of such notice or
Obligations incurred pursuant to any contract or commitment in existence prior
to such receipt, and all checks, drafts, notes, instruments (negotiable or
otherwise) and writings made by or for the account of the Customer and drawn on
the Bank or any of its agents purporting to be dated on or before the date of
such receipt of such notice, although presented to and paid or accepted by the
Bank after that date, shall form part of the Obligations. This Guaranty shall
continue to be effective or be reinstated, notwithstanding any such notice, if
at any time any payment made or value received with respect to an Obligation is
rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Bank upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy or reorganization of the Customer, or otherwise, all as though such
payment had not been made or value received.
10. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Guaranty shall be binding upon the
Guarantor, its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of and be
enforceable by the Bank and its successors, transferees and assigns. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the Bank may assign or
otherwise transfer any agreement or any note held by it evidencing, securing or
otherwise executed in connection with the Obligations, or sell participations in
any interest therein, to any other person or entity, and such other person or
entity shall thereupon become vested, to the extent set forth in the agreement
evidencing such assignment, transfer or participation, with all the rights in
respect thereof granted to the Bank herein.
11. AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this
Guaranty nor consent to any departure by the Guarantor therefrom shall be
effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Bank. No failure
on the part of the Bank to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof

loans (by outstanding principal balance) (each of such lists, as amended
from time to time, an "Approved Seller List");
(i) if either Borrower intends to use a portion of an
Advance to purchase Eligible Mortgage Loans with an outstanding
principal balance in excess of $10 million from an entity not listed on
the related Approved Seller List, such Borrower shall have notified the
Lender of the identity of such entity at least three Business Days prior
to the related Funding Date and, if the Lender so requests at least two
Business Days prior to such Funding Date, the Lender shall have
completed a due diligence review of the Mortgage Files related to such
Eligible Mortgage Loans, the result of which shall have been
satisfactory to the Lender; and
(j) all information with respect to the Borrowers provided
to the Lender by the Borrowers or by any party at the request of the
Borrowers shall be true and correct in all material respects to the best
of Borrowers' knowledge and belief.
SECTION 3. Additional Terms and Conditions for All Advances.
(a) Each outstanding Advance shall mature on the related Maturity
Date, and the obligation of the Lender to make any Advances hereunder shall
terminate on the Funding
8
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Termination Date; provided that the Funding Termination Date may be extended
from time to time, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Lender, upon (i)
the execution and delivery by the parties hereto of a Notice of Extension of
Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit B-1 annexed hereto, (ii) the
delivery to the Lender of an opinion of counsel to the Borrowers substantially
in the form of Exhibit B-2 annexed hereto and (iii) in connection with an
increase of the Maximum Funding Amount to an amount greater than the then
maximum principal amount of the Secured Note, the execution and delivery by the
parties hereto of an Endorsement to the Secured Note, substantially in the form
of Exhibit B-3 hereto.
(b) If a Borrower wishes to receive an Advance, then such
Borrower shall give the Lender written notice by no later than 5:00 p.m. (New
York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the related Funding Date of
the amount of such Advance to be requested on such Funding Date by delivering a
Notice of Borrowing substantially in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto, and
the Custodian shall have delivered a Trust Receipt and Certification to the
Lender no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day prior to
the related Funding Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at its option, a
Borrower may request an Advance by giving the Lender written notice by no later
than 10:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the related Funding Date of the amount
of such Advance to be requested on such Funding Date by delivering a Notice of
Borrowing substantially in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto, and the
Custodian shall have delivered a Trust Receipt and Certification to the Lender
no later than 2:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the Funding Date; provided,
however, that any such Advance shall accrue interest at the Federal Funds Rate
plus the Applicable Spread from the related Funding Date to but excluding the
related Maturity Date.
(c) Each Advance shall bear interest from the related Funding
Date to but excluding the Maturity Date for such Advance at a per annum rate
equal to Adjusted LIBOR plus the Applicable Spread and thereafter as provided in
Section 3(e); provided, however, that if, at any time, the making or continuance
of any Advance has become unlawful or impracticable by compliance of the Lender
in good faith with any law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order,
or has become impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the
date of this Agreement which materially and adversely affects the London
interbank Eurodollar market, then during such period, interest on Advances shall
be calculated at a per annum rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus the
Applicable Spread. Interest on each Advance shall be calculated on the basis of
the actual number of days elapsed in a year consisting of 360 days. Interest on
each Advance shall be paid on each Interest Payment Date and on the Maturity
Date for such Advance. In the event that an Advance is not repaid in full on the
date when due, interest thereafter shall be payable on demand.
(d) Subject to the next succeeding sentence, all Advances are
prepayable, in whole or in part, at any time without premium or penalty. Any
amounts prepaid shall be applied to repay the outstanding principal amount of
any Advances (together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon) until paid in
full. If a Borrower intends to prepay an Advance in whole or in part from a
source other than the proceeds of a Securitization or Designated Sale, such
Borrower shall give two Business Days' prior notice thereof to the Lender. The
Borrowers shall compensate the Lender, upon its written request (which request
shall set forth in reasonable
9
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
detail the basis for requesting such amounts), for all losses, expenses and
liabilities (other than loss of profits) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if
for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) an Advance does not occur
on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing (whether or not
withdrawn), (ii) in connection with any prepayment of Advances or (iii) as a
consequence of any other Default or Event of Default by the Borrowers to repay
their Advances when required by the terms of this Agreement.
(e) If an Advance is not repaid in whole on the related Maturity
Date, such unpaid Advance shall, commencing on such date, bear interest at a per
annum rate equal to Adjusted LIBOR plus the Default Spread until repaid.
(f) The Advances shall be evidenced collectively by the Secured
Note. The amount of each Advance and the date and amount of each repayment of
principal thereof shall be forwarded by the Lender to the related Borrower, by
facsimile transmission upon request therefor, and shall be conclusive evidence
of the accuracy of such amounts (absent manifest error).
(g) Not more than 2.0% of the Mortgage Loans (by outstanding
principal balance) are delinquent in respect of two or more contractual
payments.
(h) (i) If, due to either (A) the introduction of, or any change
in the administration or interpretation of, any law, rule or regulation
(domestic or foreign) or (B) the compliance with any directive, guideline or
request from any central bank or other governmental or monetary authority
(whether or not having the force of law) promulgated or made after the date
hereof, (1) there shall be an increase in the cost to the Lender or any
transferee of making, funding or maintaining its commitment or any Advance
(including, without limitation, as a result of the imposition or modification of
any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement or any assessment by the
FDIC against the Advances) or (2) any amount receivable by the Lender hereunder
shall be reduced or the Lender shall be required to make a payment calculated by
reference to the principal of, or interest on, any Advance or any fee payable to
it, then the Borrowers shall, from time to time, upon demand by the Lender,
which demand shall be accompanied by reasonable documentation of the basis for
and calculation of the amount of such demand, pay the Lender additional amounts
sufficient to compensate the Lender or any transferee for such increased cost,
reduction or payment; and (ii) if either (A) the introduction of, or any change
in the administration or interpretation of, any law, rule or regulation
(domestic or foreign) or (B) the compliance with any directive, guideline or
request (including, any law, rule, regulation, interpretation, guideline or
request contemplated by or arising out of the report dated July 1988 entitled
"International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards" issued
by the Basle Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices) from
any central bank or other governmental or monetary authority (whether or not
having the force of law) promulgated or made after the date hereof affects or
would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the
Lender and the Lender reasonably determines that the amount of such capital is
increased by or based upon the existence of the Lender's agreement to make
Advances hereunder (taking into account the Lender's policies with respect to
capital adequacy), then upon demand by the Lender, which demand shall be
10
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
accompanied by reasonable documentation of the basis for and calculation of the
amount of such demand, the Borrowers shall immediately pay to the Lender
additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Lender for such increased costs
in light of such circumstances, to the extent that the Lender reasonably
determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of the
Lender's agreements hereunder (taking into account the Lender's policies with
respect to capital adequacy).
(i) If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable, or any
action hereunder is required to be taken, on a day other than a Business Day,
the date for such payment or action shall be extended to the next succeeding
Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall
accrue at the then applicable rate during such extension.
(j) If at any time Lender notifies the Borrowers that the
aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Advances exceeds the Maximum
Amount Advanced, the Borrowers shall no later than one Business Day after
receipt of notice of such excess, either prepay such Advances (together with
accrued and unpaid interest thereon) in whole or in part or pledge additional
Collateral to the Lender, such that after giving effect to such prepayment or
pledge the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Advances does not
exceed the Maximum Amount Advanced.
SECTION 4. Purpose of Advances. Each Advance shall be used only
as interim financing for the origination or acquisition of Eligible Mortgage
Loans; provided, however, that to the extent that the Maximum Amount Advanced is
greater than the outstanding principal amount of aggregate Advances on the
related Funding Date, such Advance (to the extent of such excess) may be used
for general corporate purposes.
SECTION 5. Mortgage Files and Custodian; Secured Obligations. (a)
In connection with each Advance, the related Borrower shall deliver to the
Custodian, on behalf of the Lender, the documents and instruments listed in
Section 2 of the Custodial Agreement, and such Borrower shall further cause to
be delivered to the Custodian the documents and instruments described in the
last sentence of Section 2 of the Custodial Agreement as and to the extent
required to be delivered to the Custodian pursuant thereto. The related Borrower
shall cause the Custodian to hold the Mortgage Loan Documents on behalf of the
Lender pursuant to terms of the Custodial Agreement and shall cause the
Custodian to deliver to the Lender a Trust Receipt and Certification to the
effect that it has reviewed such Mortgage Loan Documents in the manner required
by the Custodial Agreement and identifying any deficiencies in such Mortgage
Loan Documents as so reviewed.
(b) The Borrowers hereby pledge and grant a security interest in
all of their respective right, title and interest in and to the Collateral to
the Lender to secure the repayment of the Secured Obligations. The Borrowers
agree to mark their computer records and tapes to evidence the security
interests granted to the Lender hereunder.

of the Transaction Documents or (ii) that might materially and adversely
affect the enforceability of any Transaction Document.
(vii) No Adverse Change. There has been no material adverse
change in the business, operations, financial condition, properties or
prospects of the Borrower since September 30, 1995.
(viii) No Default; No Conflict. The Borrower is not in
default under any mortgage, borrowing agreement or other instrument or

the Transaction Documents, (ii) requires the consent or approval of any
Person that has not been obtained as of the date of this Agreement,

Proper and accurate amounts have been withheld by the Borrower from its
employees for all periods in full and complete compliance with the tax,
social security and unemployment withholding provisions of applicable
federal, state, local and foreign law and such withholdings have been
timely paid to the respective governmental agencies. The Borrower has
not executed or filed with the Internal Revenue Service or any other

consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents will violate any provision of such Act or any rule, regulation
or order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.
(xiv) Material Facts. The Borrower has disclosed to Lender

all material respects with all federal, state and local laws, rules and
regulations applicable to them, their assets or the conduct of their

was originally incurred to purchase or carry any margin security or for
14
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
any other purpose that might cause any Advance to be considered a
"purpose credit" within the meaning of Regulations G, T, U or X of the
Federal Reserve Board. The Borrowers will not take or permit any agent
acting on their behalf to take any action that might cause this
Agreement or any document or instrument delivered pursuant hereto to
violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.

SECTION 7. Rights of Lender; Limitations on Lender's Obligations.
(a) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each of the Borrowers shall
remain liable under each of the Mortgage Loan Documents to which it is a party
to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and
performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with and pursuant to the terms and
provisions of each such Mortgage Loan Document. The Lender shall not have any
obligation or liability under any Mortgage Loan Document by reason of or arising
out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Lender of any payment relating to
such Mortgage Loan Document pursuant hereto, nor shall the Lender be obligated
in any manner to perform any of the obligations of either of the Borrowers under
or pursuant to any Mortgage Loan Document, to make any payment, to make any
inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as
to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any Mortgage Loan
Document, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any
performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been
assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.
(b) Upon the request of the Lender at any time after the
occurrence of an Event of Termination or after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the related Borrower shall notify parties to
the Mortgage Loan Documents that the Mortgage Loan Documents have been assigned
to the Lender and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the
Lender. The Lender may in its own name or in the name of others communicate with
parties to the Mortgage Loan Documents to verify with them to its satisfaction
the existence, amount and terms of any Mortgage Loan Documents.
SECTION 8. Covenants. Each of the Borrowers covenants and agrees
with the Lender that, from and after the date of this Agreement until the

upon the written request of the Lender, and at the sole expense of the

authorizes the Lender to file any such financing or continuation
statement without the signature of the Borrower to the extent permitted

create, incur or permit to exist, will defend the Collateral against,
and will take such other action as is necessary to remove, any lien,
security interest or claim on or to the Collateral, other than the

interest of the Lender in and to any of the Collateral against the
claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever.
(c) Limitations on Modifications, Waivers and Extensions of
Mortgage Loan Documents. The Borrower will not (i) amend, modify,
terminate or waive any provision of any Mortgage Loan Document to which
the Borrower is a party in any manner which could reasonably be expected

as Collateral (including, without limitation, changing the mortgage
rate, reducing or increasing the principal balance (except for
reductions resulting from actual payments of principal) or change the
final maturity date of Mortgage Loans), (ii) fail to exercise promptly
and diligently each and every material right which the Borrower may have
under each such Mortgage Loan Document (other than any right of
termination) where the failure to so act could materially adversely
affect the Collateral relating to such Mortgage Loan Document or (iii)
fail to deliver to the Lender a copy of each material demand, notice or
document received by it relating in any way to any such Mortgage Loan
Document other than any such demand, notice or document relating to the
delinquency of a Mortgage Loan Document or the bankruptcy of the obligor
thereunder.
(d) Further Identification of Collateral; Financial Information.
The Borrower will furnish to the Lender from time to time statements and

(i) the most recently updated computer tape containing such statistical
information as the Lender shall reasonably request and (ii) a
certificate from an Authorized Representative of the Borrower containing
information relating to the delinquency status of the Mortgage Loans at

and certification shall be further updated from time to time as
reasonably requested by the Lender to the Borrower in writing. Any such
revisions by the Lender shall be provided to the Borrower with
sufficient advance notice in order to enable the Borrower to deliver to
the Lender the revised computer tape and certification on the
immediately succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Borrower will furnish
to the Lender from time to time financial statements and such other

with any hedging requirements of the Lender.

23
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(c) Upon the happening of one or more Events of Default or Events
of Termination, the Lender shall have the right to collect and receive all
further payments made on the Collateral, and if any such payments are received
by either of the Borrowers, the related Borrower shall not commingle the amounts
received with other funds of such Borrower and shall promptly pay them over to
the Lender. In addition to all rights and remedies provided to the Lender at
law, in equity and under the Transaction Documents, upon the occurrence of any
Event of Default or Event of Termination, the Lender may exercise any one or
more of the following rights and remedies:
(i) Exercise all the rights and remedies available to secured
parties under the provisions of the NY UCC.
(ii) Institute legal proceedings to foreclose upon and
against the lien and security interest granted by this Agreement, to
recover judgment for the Secured Obligations and to collect the same out

Collateral, sell and dispose of, or cause to be sold and disposed of,
all or any part of the Collateral at one or more public or private
sales, or other dispositions, at such places and times and on such terms
and conditions and in such order as the Lender may deem fit, without any
previous demand or advertisement but with reasonable notification to the
Borrower of any such sale or other disposal. The specification in this
Section 15 of manners of disposition of collateral as being commercially
reasonable shall not preclude the use of other commercially reasonable
methods (as contemplated by the NY UCC) at the option of the Lender.
(d) Any notice of sale or other disposition, advertisement and
other notice or demand, any right or equity of redemption and any obligation of
a prospective purchaser to inquire as to the power and authority of the Lender
to sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or as to the application of the
proceeds of sale or otherwise, which would otherwise be required by, or
available to the Borrowers under, applicable law are hereby expressly waived by
the Borrowers to the fullest extent permitted by such law.
(e) At any sale pursuant to this Agreement, whether under the
power of sale or by virtue of judicial proceedings, it shall not be necessary
for the Lender or a public officer under order of a court to have present
physical or constructive possession of the Collateral to be sold. The recitals
contained in any conveyances and receipts made and given by the Lender or such
public officer to any purchaser at any sale made pursuant to this Agreement
shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, conclusively establish the
truth and accuracy of the matters therein stated (including, without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the amount of the principal and interest of the
Secured Obligations, the accrual and nonpayment thereof and advertisement and
conduct of such sale in the manner provided herein and by applicable law) and
all prerequisites to such sale shall be presumed to have been satisfied and
performed. Upon any sale hereunder of any of the Collateral or any interest
therein, the receipt of the officer
24
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
making such sale under judicial proceedings or of the Lender shall be sufficient
discharge to the purchaser for the purchase price and such purchaser shall not
be obligated to see to the application thereof. Any sale hereunder of any of the
Collateral or any interest therein shall forever be a perpetual bar against the
Borrowers with respect to such Collateral.
(f) All moneys received or collected by the Lender pursuant to
this Agreement shall be applied first, to the payment of all costs incurred in
the collection of such moneys (including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal
expenses), second, to the payment of interest due under the Secured Note and
fees due hereunder, third, to the principal balance of the Secured Note and
fourth, to any other costs and expenses due to the Lender from the Borrowers
hereunder. The balance, if any, of such moneys remaining after payment in full
of the Obligations shall be remitted to the Borrowers or as otherwise directed
by a court of competent jurisdiction.
(g) The Lender or anyone else may bid and be the purchaser of any
or all of the Collateral so sold and shall hold the same thereafter in its own
right, free from any claim of the Borrowers or any other person; provided,
however, that any such purchase shall be pursuant to an arm's-length
transaction. Any sale hereunder may be conducted by an officer of the Lender or
any other party so authorized.
(h) Upon the occurrence of a Default, an Event of Default or an
Event of Termination or at such other time as the Lender in its sole discretion
shall determine that there has been a material adverse change in the business
operations or financial condition of either of the Borrowers, the Borrowers
hereby authorize the Lender in its discretion at any time and from time to time
to complete any assignment of a mortgage which heretofore was, or hereafter at
any time may be, executed and delivered by the related Borrower to Lender so
that such assignment describes a mortgage that is security for the Secured Note
now or hereafter at any time constituting Collateral and to record the same, the
cost and expense of any such recording to be paid by the Borrowers, and complete
any other assignment or endorsement that was delivered in blank hereunder or
under the Custodial Agreement or pursuant to the terms hereof or pursuant to the
terms of the Custodial Agreement.
SECTION 16. Indemnification and Expenses. Each of the Borrowers
(the "Indemnifying Parties") shall indemnify, protect and hold Lender and its
parent, subsidiaries Affiliates, directors, officers, employees,
representatives, agents, successors and attorneys (collectively, the
"Indemnified Parties") harmless from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims,
costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees
and legal expenses, whether or not suit is brought, and settlement costs, and
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred
by or asserted against the Indemnified Parties, in any way relating to or
arising out of the Transaction Documents or any of the transactions contemplated
therein (collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities"), to the extent that any of
the Indemnified Liabilities results, directly or indirectly, from any claim
made, whether or not in connection with any legal action, suit, or proceeding,
by or on behalf of any Person. However, no Indemnified Party shall have the
right to be indemnified hereunder for its own or any other Indemnified Party's
gross
25
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
negligence or willful misconduct. The Borrowers also agree to reimburse the
Lender for all its costs and expenses incurred in connection with the
enforcement or the preservation of the Lender's rights under any of the
Transaction Documents or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby,
including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel.
The Borrowers hereby acknowledge that, notwithstanding the fact that the Secured
Note is secured by the Collateral, the obligation of the Borrowers under the
Secured Note is a recourse obligation of the Borrowers.
The Indemnifying Parties shall be entitled to appoint counsel of
the Indemnifying Party's choice at the Indemnifying Parties' expense to
represent any of the Indemnified Parties in any action for which indemnification
is sought (in which case the Indemnifying Parties shall not thereafter be
responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the
Indemnified Parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such
counsel shall be satisfactory to the related Indemnified Parties.
Notwithstanding the Indemnifying Parties' election to appoint counsel for the
Indemnified Parties in an action, the Indemnified Parties shall have the right
to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the Indemnifying
Parties shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate
counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Parties to
represent the Indemnified Parties would present such counsel with a conflict of
interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such
action include both an Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Parties and the
related Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be
defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those
available to the Indemnifying Parties, (iii) the Indemnifying Parties shall not
have employed counsel satisfactory to the related Indemnified Parties within a
reasonable time after the notice of the institution of such action, (iv) the
related Indemnified Parties shall have reasonably concluded that, due to the
financial condition of the Indemnifying Parties, not employing separate counsel
would have a material adverse effect on the outcome of such action as it relates
to such Indemnified Parties, or (v) the Indemnifying Parties shall authorize the
Lender and/or other Indemnified Parties to employ separate counsel at the
expense of the Indemnifying Parties. The Indemnifying Parties will not, without
the prior written consent of the Lender and all other Indemnified Parties
involved in the related action, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of
any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or
proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether
or not the Indemnified Parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or
action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional
release of each Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim,
action, suit or proceeding.
(a) The Borrowers agree to pay as and when billed by the Lender
all of the out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection
with the development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment,
supplement or modification to any of the Transaction Documents or any other
documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and
administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby including,
without limitation, (i) all the reasonable fees, disbursements and expenses of
Lender's counsel (such fees of Lender's counsel not to exceed $10,000), (ii) all
the reasonable due diligence, inspection, transportation, computer, duplication,
appraisal, audit, insurance, consultant, search, filing and recording fees,
testing and review costs and expenses incurred by

the Lender, with respect to Mortgage Loans pledged as Collateral under this
Agreement and (iii) all the fees and expenses incurred by the Custodian in
connection with its duties under the Custodial Agreement.
(b) The Borrowers' agreements in this Section 16 shall survive
the payment in full of the Secured Obligations and the expiration or termination
of this Agreement.
SECTION 17. Takeouts and Releases of Collateral. (a) In
connection with the permanent refinancing, in whole or in part, of the Advances,
the Lender hereby agrees to consent to such permanent refinancings and to permit
the release therefor of a portion of the Mortgage Loans as the Borrowers may
request, provided, that after giving effect to any such release: (i) the
Collateral that remains pledged to the Lender hereunder shall not have been
selected in a manner which adversely affects the Lender as determined by the
Lender in its sole discretion; (ii) there shall not be a material adverse change
in the business operations or financial condition of the Borrower; and (iii) in
the case of a reduction of the total revolving loan commitment contemplated by
this Agreement, the Maximum Funding Amount shall be reduced accordingly. At
least 3 Business Days prior to the closing of any such permanent refinancing,
the Borrowers shall deliver a certificate to the Lender to the effect that any
such permanent refinancing is in compliance with the requirements set forth in
clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 17. Any permanent refinancing that does not
comply with the requirements of clauses (i) and (ii) above shall require the
prior written consent of the Lender.
(b) The Borrowers will cause an Eligible Takeout to occur no
later than July __, 1996 (the "Initial Eligible Takeout"), and at least once
within every six-month period following the Initial Eligible Takeout. Each
Eligible Takeout caused by the Borrowers shall comply with the provisions of
Section 17(a) hereof.
SECTION 18. Power of Attorney. The Borrowers hereby authorize,
without requiring, the Lender, at the Borrowers' expense, to file such financing
statement or statements relating to the Collateral without the related
Borrower's signature thereon as the Lender at its option may deem appropriate,
and appoints the Lender as the Borrowers' attorney-in-fact to execute any such
financing statement or statements in the Borrowers' name and to perform all
other acts which the Lender deems appropriate to perfect and continue the
security interest granted hereby and to protect, preserve and realize upon the
Collateral, including, but not limited to, the right to endorse notes, complete
blanks in documents and sign assignments on behalf of the Borrowers as its
attorney-in-fact. This Power of Attorney is coupled with an interest and is
irrevocable without the Lender's consent.
SECTION 19. No Duty on Lender's Part. Nothing herein contained
shall be construed to constitute the Lender as agent of the Borrowers or as a
partner in or with the Borrowers for any purpose whatsoever. The Lender does
not, by anything contained herein, assume any of Borrowers' obligations under
any contract or agreement constituting part of or relating to the Collateral and
the Lender will not be responsible in any way for the Borrowers' performance of
any of the terms or conditions thereof. The powers conferred on the Lender
hereunder are solely to protect the Lender's interests in the Collateral and
shall not impose any
27
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
duty upon it to exercise any such powers. The Lender shall be accountable only
for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such
powers, and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents
shall be responsible to the Borrowers for any act or failure to act hereunder,
except for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Lender.
SECTION 20. Limitation on Duties Regarding Preservation of
Collateral. The obligation of the Lender with respect to the Collateral shall be
limited strictly to the duty to exercise reasonable care in the custody of such
Collateral and such duty shall not include any obligation to ascertain or to
initiate any action with respect to, or to inform the Borrower of, maturity
dates, conversion, call rights, offers to purchase the Collateral or any similar
matters, notwithstanding the knowledge of the Lender of the same. The Lender
shall have no duty (i) to take any steps necessary to preserve the rights of the
Borrowers against prior parties or to initiate any action to protect against the
possibility of a decline in the market value of the Collateral, (ii) to take any
action with respect to the Collateral requested by Borrowers, or (iii) to make
or give any presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance,
notices of protest or notices of dishonor in connection with any of the
Collateral or to take any other action to preserve, protect or defend any right,
title or interest of the Borrowers, or the Lender with respect thereto or to
preserve any value thereof. Neither the Lender nor any of its directors,
officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or
realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or
shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral
upon the request of the Borrowers or otherwise.
SECTION 21. Powers Coupled with an Interest. All authorizations
and agencies herein granted to the Lender with respect to the Collateral are
irrevocable and powers coupled with an interest.
SECTION 22. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which
is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or
render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
SECTION 23. Notices. All written communications hereunder shall
be mailed, telecopied or delivered to the respective addresses as listed in the
Custodial Agreement or to such other address as shall be designated by a party
in a written notice to the other parties. All such notices and communications
shall be effective when delivered to the party to which such notice is to be
given.
SECTION 24. Paragraph Headings. The paragraph headings used in
this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the
construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.
SECTION 25. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. The Lender shall not
by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 12 hereof),
delay, indulgence,
28
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or
to have acquiesced in any Event of Default, Event of Termination or in any
breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof. No failure to exercise, nor
any delay in exercising, on the part of the Lender, any right, power or
privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial
exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
A waiver by the Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion
shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Lender would
otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided
are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of
any rights or remedies provided by law.
SECTION 26. Assignment. Neither of the Borrowers may assign its
rights or delegate its obligations under this Agreement without the express
written consent of the Lender. The Lender may assign its rights and obligations
hereunder upon written notice thereof to the Borrowers. If the Lender determines
and notifies the Borrowers that a Participation is a desirable course of action
with respect to the Secured Note, then the Borrowers shall cooperate with the
Lender in the preparation of any information reasonably necessary or incidental
to such Participation which is reasonably within the possession or control of
the Borrowers or is obtainable by the Borrowers without undue burden or expense
and shall in good faith enter into any amendments to this Agreement necessary to
accomplish the Participation. In the event of a Participation, the Lender shall
remain liable for all its responsibilities hereunder and under the Secured Note
and the Borrowers shall not be expected to communicate with any participants.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the Borrowers shall not be
required to take, and the Lender agrees that neither the Lender nor any of its
Affiliates will take, any action inconsistent with the requirements of
applicable law, including the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and state
securities laws.
SECTION 27. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all
of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
SECTION 28. Agreement Constitutes Security Agreement. This
Agreement is intended by the parties hereto to constitute a security agreement
within the meaning of the NY UCC.
SECTION 29. Hypothecation or Pledge of Collateral. Nothing in
this Agreement shall preclude Lender from pledging, repledging, hypothecating,
or rehypothecating any of the Collateral, but no such transaction shall relieve
the Lender of its obligations to the Borrowers under this Agreement or the
Custodial Agreement with respect to the Collateral or impair the Borrowers'
right to obtain the Collateral as provided herein.
SECTION 30. Waivers. The Borrowers waive any right to require the
Lender to (i) proceed against any other Person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust
any Collateral; (iii) pursue any other remedy in the Lender's power; or (iv)
make or give any presentments,
29
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
demands for performance, notices of dishonor in connection with any obligations
or evidence of indebtedness which constitute in whole or in part the Secured
Obligations.
SECTION 31. Further Assurances. (a) The Borrowers agree to do
such further reasonable acts and things, and to execute and deliver such
additional conveyances, assignments, agreements or financing statements, as the
Lender may at any time reasonably request in connection with the creation,
perfection, administration or enforcement of this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, to aid the Lender, if
there has been an Event of Default or Event of Termination, in the sale of all
or any part of the Collateral) or related to the Collateral or any part thereof
or to give any necessary or desirable notice of the security interest in the
Collateral granted by this Agreement or in order better to assure and confirm to
the Lender its rights, powers and remedies hereunder.
(b) If requested by the Borrowers, and to facilitate the timely
disposition of the Collateral, the Lender hereby agrees to underwrite for its
own account Certificates issued by a Designated Trust; provided, however, that
any Certificates so underwritten will have credit enhancement provided by a
monoline insurance company rated "AAA" (or the equivalent thereof) by a
nationally recognized statistical rating organization, with terms and conditions
acceptable to the Lender and comparable to prior transactions involving the
Parent as issuer. The purchase price to be paid by the Lender will be at an
underwriting discount consistent with then-existing market standards. The
interest rate on the Certificates will be determined by the Lender in its sole
discretion but will be consistent with (i) then current market pricing for
securities backed by collateral similar to the Collateral and (ii) prior
discussions between the Lender and the Borrowers.
SECTION 32. Governing Law. (a) This Agreement was negotiated in

"Agreement"), by and between the Lender and the Borrowers plus interest thereon
from the date of each such Advance as provided in the Agreement. All such
payment obligations (whether in respect of the aggregate principal amount of
outstanding Advances made, interest thereon, or other payment obligations of the
Borrower under the Agreement) shall be made in lawful money of the United States
of America, in immediately available funds, on the dates and in the amounts,
specified in or determined in accordance with, the Agreement.
The amount of each Advance and the date and amount of each
repayment of principal thereof shall be forwarded by the Lender to the related
Borrower, by facsimile transmission upon request therefor, and shall be
conclusive evidence of the accuracy of such amounts (absent manifest error).
It is intended that the rate of interest herein shall never
exceed the maximum rate, if any, which may be legally charged on the loan
evidenced by this Secured Note (the "Maximum Rate"), and if the provisions for
interest contained in this Secured Note would result in a rate higher than the
Maximum Rate, interest shall nevertheless be limited to the Maximum Rate, and
any amounts which may be paid toward interest in excess of the Maximum Rate
shall be applied to the reduction of principal, or, at the option of the Lender,
returned to the related Borrower.
All payments hereon shall be made, and all notices to the Lender
required or authorized hereby shall be given, at the office of the Lender at the
address designated in the Agreement, or to such other place as the Lender may

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the
respective meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement. Notwithstanding the
pledge of the Collateral, the Borrowers hereby acknowledge, admit and agree that
the Borrowers' obligations under this Secured Note are recourse obligations of
the Borrowers to which the Borrowers pledge their full faith and credit.
The Borrowers, and any indorsers or guarantors hereof, (a)
severally waive diligence, presentment, protest and demand and also notice of
protest, demand, dishonor and nonpayments of this Secured Note, (b) expressly

time to time, and consent to the acceptance of further Collateral, the release
of any Collateral for this Secured Note, the release of any party primarily or

for the Lender, in order to enforce payment of this Secured Note, to first
institute or exhaust its remedies against such Borrower or any other party
liable hereon or against any Collateral for this Secured Note. No extension of
time for the payment of this Secured Note, or any installment hereof, made by
agreement by the Lender with any Person now or hereafter liable for the payment
of this Secured Note, shall affect the liability under this Secured Note of the
Borrowers, even if the Borrowers are not a party to such agreement; provided,
however, that the Lender and the Borrowers, by written agreement between them,
may affect the liability of the Borrowers.

4. MARGIN MAINTENANCE
(a) If at any time the aggregate Market Value of all Purchased HELs

Amount for all such Transactions (a "Margin Deficit"), then Buyer may by notice
to an Obligor require the Obligor in such Transactions, at
5
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Buyer's option, to transfer to Buyer cash or additional HELs reasonably
acceptable to Buyer ("Additional Purchased HELs"), so that the cash and
aggregate Market Value of the Purchased HELs, including any such Additional
Purchased HELs, will thereupon equal or exceed such aggregate Buyer's Margin
Amount.
(b) If the notice to be given by Buyer to an Obligor under subparagraph
(a) above is given at or prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time on a Business
Day, the Obligor shall transfer cash or Additional Purchased HELs to Buyer prior
to the close of business in New York City on the date of such notice, and if
such notice is given after 10:00 a.m. New York City time, the Obligor shall
transfer cash or Additional Purchased HELs prior to the close of business in New
York City on the Business Day following the date of such notice.
(c) Any cash transferred pursuant to this Paragraph shall be attributed
to such Transactions as shall be agreed upon by Buyer and the Obligor.
5. INCOME PAYMENTS
Where a particular Transaction's term extends over an Income payment
date on the HELs subject to that Transaction, all payments and distributions,
whether in cash or in kind, made on or with respect to the Purchased HELs shall,
unless otherwise mutually agreed by Buyer and the related Obligor and so long as
an Event of Default on the part of an Obligor shall not have occurred and be
continuing, be paid directly to the related Obligor by the related Mortgagor.
Buyer shall not be obligated to take any action pursuant to the preceding
sentence to the extent that such action would result in the creation of a Margin
Deficit, unless prior thereto or simultaneously therewith the Obligor transfers
to Buyer, at Buyer's option, cash or Additional Purchased HELs sufficient to
eliminate such Margin Deficit.
6. SECURITY INTEREST
Although the parties intend that all Transactions hereunder be sales and
purchases and not loans, in the event any such Transactions are deemed to be
loans, the related Obligor shall be deemed to have pledged to Buyer as security
for the performance by the Obligors of their obligations under each such
Transaction, and shall be deemed to have granted to Buyer a security interest
in, all of the Purchased HELs with respect to all Transactions hereunder and all
proceeds thereof. The Obligors shall pay all fees and expenses associated with
perfecting such security interest including, without limitation, the cost of
filing financing statements under the Uniform Commercial Code and
6
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
recording assignments of mortgage as and when required by Buyer in its sole
discretion.
7. PAYMENT AND TRANSFER
(a) Unless otherwise mutually agreed, all transfers of funds hereunder
shall be in immediately available funds. All HELs transferred by one party
hereto to the other party shall, except as provided in (b) below, be transferred
by notice to the Custodian to the effect that the Custodian is now holding for
the benefit of the transferee the related documents and assignment forms
delivered to it under the Custodial Agreement.
(b) The parties agree that, with respect to certain Purchased HELs (the
"Delayed Document HELs"), the delivery to the Custodian of documents and
assignment forms required by the Custodial Agreement may be delayed for a period
of not more than three (3) Business Days after the related
Purchase Date.
8. SEGREGATION OF DOCUMENTS RELATING TO PURCHASED HELS
All documents relating to Purchased HELs in the possession of an
Obligor, other than credit and servicing files, shall be segregated from other
documents and securities in its possession and shall be identified as being
subject to this Agreement. Ownership of all Purchased HELs shall pass to Buyer
and nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Buyer from engaging in repurchase
transactions with the Purchased HELs or otherwise pledging or hypothecating the
Purchased HELs, but no such transaction shall relieve Buyer of its obligations
to resell and transfer Purchased HELs to an Obligor pursuant to the terms
hereof.
9. SUBSTITUTION
An Obligor may, subject to agreement with and acceptance by Buyer,
substitute other HELs for any Purchased HELs. Such substitution shall be made by
transfer to Buyer of such other HELs and transfer to the Obligor of such
Purchased HELs. After substitution, the substituted HELs shall be deemed to be
Purchased HELs.
10. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS
(a) Buyer and the Obligors each represents and warrants, and shall on

in a recognized market at such price or prices as Buyer may in its sole
discretion deem satisfactory, any or all Purchased HELs subject to such
Transactions and apply the proceeds thereof to the aggregate unpaid
Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by either Obligor
hereunder or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or
a portion of such Purchased HELs, to give the Obligor credit for such
Purchased HELs in an amount equal to the Market Value therefor on such
date against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other
amounts owing jointly and severally by the Obligors hereunder; and
(ii) as to Transactions in which the defaulting party is Buyer,
(A) purchase home equity loans ("Replacement HELs") having substantially
the same outstanding principal amount, maturity and interest rate as any
Purchased HELs that are not transferred by Buyer to an Obligor as
required hereunder or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of
purchasing Replacement HELs, to be deemed to have purchased Replacement
HELs at the price therefor on such date, calculated as the average of
the prices obtained from three (3) nationally recognized registered
broker/dealers that buy and sell comparable home equity loans in the
secondary market.
(f) As to Transactions in which the defaulting party is Buyer, Buyer
shall be liable to the related Obligor (i) with respect to Purchased HELs (other
than Additional Purchased HELs), for any excess of the price paid (or deemed
paid) by such Obligor for Replacement HELs therefor over the Repurchase Price
for such Purchased HELs and (ii) with respect to Additional Purchased HELs, for
the price paid (or deemed paid) by the Obligor for the Replacement HELs
therefor. In addition, Buyer shall be liable to such Obligor for interest on
such remaining liability with respect to each such purchase (or deemed purchase)
of Replacement HELs from the date of such purchase (or deemed purchase) until
paid in full by Buyer. Such interest shall be at a rate equal to the greater of
the Pricing Rate for such Transaction or the Prime Rate.
(g) For purposes of this Paragraph 11, the Repurchase Price for each
Transaction hereunder in respect of which the defaulting party is Buyer shall
not increase above the amount of such Repurchase Price for such Transaction
determined as of the date of the exercise or deemed exercise by the related
Obligor of its option under subparagraph (b) of this Paragraph.

(h) The defaulting party shall be liable to the nondefaulting party for
the amount of all reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by the
nondefaulting party in connection with or as a consequence of an Event of
Default, together with interest thereon at a rate equal to the greater of the
Pricing Rate for the relevant Transaction or the Prime Rate. Expenses incurred
in connection with an Event of Default shall include without limitation those
costs and expenses incurred by the nondefaulting party as a result of the early
termination of any repurchase agreement or reverse repurchase agreement entered
into by the nondefaulting party in connection with the Transaction then in
default.
(i) The nondefaulting party shall have, in addition to its rights
hereunder, any rights otherwise available to it under any other agreement or
applicable law.
(j) In the event that the senior debt obligations or short-term debt
obligations of Bear Stearns & Co. Inc. shall be rated below the four highest
generic grades (without regard to any pluses or minuses reflecting gradations
within such generic grades) by any nationally recognized statistical rating
organization then, at the option of Buyer exercised by written notice to an
Obligor, the Pricing Rate for all Transactions having a Purchase Date on or
after the date of such notice shall be adjusted in a mutually agreeable manner
to reflect Buyer's cost of funds.
(k) The exercise by any party of remedies after the occurrence of an
Event of Default shall be conducted in a commercially reasonable manner.
12. SERVICING OF THE PURCHASED HELS
(a) The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that, notwithstanding the
purchase and sale of the Purchased HELs contemplated hereby, the related Obligor
shall service the Purchased HELs for the benefit of Buyer and, if Buyer shall
exercise its rights to sell the Purchased HELs pursuant to this Agreement prior
to the related Repurchase Date, Buyer's assigns; provided, however, that the
obligation of the Obligor to service Purchased HELs for the benefit of Buyer as
aforesaid shall cease upon the payment to Buyer of the Repurchase Price
therefor.
(b) The related Obligor shall service and administer the Purchased HELs
and shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do any and all things
in connection with such servicing which such Obligor may deem necessary or
desirable and consistent with the terms of this Agreement, and shall retain all
principal prepayments and Income received by such Obligor with respect to such
Purchased HELs
14
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
pursuant to the terms hereof. The related Obligor, in administering and
servicing the Purchased HELs, shall employ procedures (including collection
procedures) and exercise the same care it customarily employs and exercises in
servicing and administering home equity loans for its own account, in accordance
with accepted home equity loan servicing practices of prudent lending
institutions and giving due consideration to Buyer's reliance on such Obligor.
The related Obligor will provide Buyer with monthly reports in a mutually
agreeable format.
(c) Buyer may, in its sole discretion if an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, without payment of any termination fee or any other
amount to an Obligor, (i) sell the HELs on a servicing released basis or (ii)
terminate the applicable Obligor as the servicer of the Purchased HELs with or
without cause.
13. SINGLE AGREEMENT
Buyer and the Obligors acknowledge that, and have entered hereinto and
will enter into each Transaction hereunder in consideration of and in reliance
upon the fact that, all Transactions hereunder constitute a single business and
contractual relationship and have been made in consideration of each other.
Accordingly, each of Buyer and IMCLP and IMCA agrees (i) to perform all of its
obligations in respect of each Transaction hereunder, and that a default in the
performance of any such obligations shall constitute a default by it in respect
of all Transactions hereunder, (ii) that each of them shall be entitled to set
off claims and apply property held by them in respect of any Transaction against
obligations owing to them in respect of any other Transactions hereunder and
(iii) that payments, deliveries and other transfers made by any of them in
respect of any Transaction shall be deemed to have been made in consideration of
payments, deliveries and other transfers in respect of any other Transactions
hereunder, and the obligations to make any such payments, deliveries and other
transfers may be applied against each other and netted.

purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action
and executing any
17
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
instruments that Buyer may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the
purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and
coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
Buyer shall have the right and power during the occurrence and continuation of

or interest on any of the Purchased HELs and to give full discharge for the

The appointment of such agent shall not relieve Buyer of its obligations
hereunder.
20. JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY OF OBLIGORS
The Obligors agree to be jointly and severally liable for the
obligations of either Obligor hereunder and all representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements made by or on behalf of either or both Obligors in the
Agreement or in any exhibit hereto or any document, instrument or certificate
delivered pursuant hereto shall be deemed to have been made by each Obligor,
jointly and severally. The Obligors further agree that, notwithstanding any
right of Buyer to investigate fully the affairs of the Obligors and
notwithstanding any knowledge of facts determined or determinable by Buyer,
Buyer has the right to rely fully on the representations, warranties, covenants
and agreements of either or both Obligors contained in the Agreement and upon
the accuracy of any document, instrument, certificate or exhibit given or
delivered hereunder. The joint and several obligation of each Obligor hereunder
is absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, present and continuing and, with
respect to any payment to be made to Buyer, is a guaranty of payment (and not of
collectability) and is in no way conditional or contingent upon the continued
existence of the other Obligor and is not and will not be subject to any
setoffs. Any notice or other communication provided to one Obligor pursuant

Obligor hereunder.

provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from
any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding

23. NON-ASSIGNABILITY; TERMINATION
(a) The rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement and

written consent of the other party. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement and

provided further, however, that no such party shall be obligated to agree to
such an extension.
24. COUNTERPARTS

which counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts
shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
25. GOVERNING LAW
This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York
without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof.
26. NO WAIVERS, ETC.
No express or implied waiver of any Event of Default by any party shall
constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default and no exercise of any remedy
hereunder by any party shall constitute a waiver of its right to exercise any
other remedy hereunder. No modification or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement and no consent by any party to a departure herefrom shall be effective
unless and until such shall be in writing and duly executed by both of the
parties hereto. Without limitation on any of the foregoing, the failure to give
a notice pursuant to subparagraph 4(a) hereof will not constitute a waiver of
any right to do so at a later date.
27. USE OF EMPLOYEE PLAN ASSETS
(a) If assets of an employee benefit plan subject to any provision of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") are intended to be
used by any party hereto (the "Plan Party") in a Transaction, the Plan Party
shall so notify the other party prior to the Transaction. The Plan Party shall
represent in writing to the other party that the Transaction does not constitute
a prohibited transaction under ERISA or is otherwise exempt therefrom, and the
other party may proceed in reliance thereon but shall not be required so to
proceed.
(b) Subject to the last sentence of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph,
any such Transaction shall proceed only if the Obligors have each furnished to
Buyer its most recent available audited statement of its financial condition and
20
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
its most recent subsequent unaudited statement of its financial condition.
(c) By entering into a Transaction pursuant to this Paragraph, each
Obligor shall be deemed (i) to represent to Buyer that since the date of such
Obligor latest such financial statements, there has been no material adverse
change in such Obligor's financial condition which an Obligor has not disclosed
to Buyer, and (ii) to agree to provide Buyer with future audited and unaudited
statements of its financial condition as they are issued, so long as it is an
Obligor in any outstanding Transaction involving a Plan Party.
28. INTENT
(a) The parties intend and acknowledge that each Transaction is a
"repurchase agreement" as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the
United States Code, as amended (except insofar as the type of HELs subject to
such Transaction or the term of such Transaction would render such definition
inapplicable), and a "securities contract" as that term is defined in Section
741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended.
(b) It is understood that any party's right to liquidate HELs delivered
to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other
remedies pursuant to Paragraph 11 hereof, is a contractual right to liquidate
such Transaction as described in Sections 555 and 559 of Title 11 of the United
States Code, as amended.
29. LIMITED ROLE OF TRUSTEE; SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE
(a) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the undersigned
Trustee is solely and strictly in its capacity as Trustee under that certain
Trust Agreement dated as of March 29, 1996 (the "Trust Agreement") by and
between State Street Bank and Trust Company of California, N.A., as Trustee (the
"Trustee") and Bear Stearns Mortgage Capital Corporation, as Depositor (the
"Depositor"), and not individually, and has been undertaken at the direction of
the Depositor pursuant to the terms of the Trust Agreement.
It is hereby expressly acknowledged that any obligations, liabilities,
covenants, duties, representations and warranties hereunder are those of the
Buyer only and not of the Trustee. There shall be no individual or corporate
liability against or on the part of the Trustee (or any of its officers,
directors or employees) under this Agreement, and there shall be no recourse
against the Trustee in its individual or corporate capacity (or any of its
directors, officers or employees) or against any of its properties or assets,
for recovery of or as a result of any claim, debt,
21
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
liability or obligation (whether of payment or performance) of or against the
Buyer under or pursuant to this Agreement (whether arising out of or relating to
any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty, or otherwise). Recourse
against the Buyer for any claims, liabilities, debts or obligations under this
Agreement is limited to the assets and properties of the trust established by
the Trust Agreement.
(b) With regard to Section 23(a) hereof, the Obligors each hereby
acknowledge and consent that any and all rights and remedies of the Buyer under
this Agreement shall automatically transfer to and vest in any successor trustee
under the Trust Agreement in the event of the removal or resignation of the
Trustee as trustee thereunder.
30. DISCLOSURE RELATING TO CERTAIN FEDERAL PROTECTIONS
The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:
(a) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker
or dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under
Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("1934 Act"), the Securities
Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of
the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 ("SIPA") do not protect the other
party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;
(b) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a
government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with
the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to
the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and
(c) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a
financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a
Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the
22

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance
Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable.

EXHIBIT C
OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE OBLIGORS
1. Each Obligor is duly organized and validly existing as a [DESCRIBE
FORM OF ORGANIZATION] in good standing under the laws of the State of and has
power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this
Agreement and the Custodial Agreement. Each Obligor is duly qualified to do
business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the character of
the business transacted by it requires such qualification and in which the
failure so to qualify would have a material adverse effect on the business,
properties, assets or condition (financial or other) of such Obligor and its
subsidiaries, considered as a whole.
2. This Agreement and the Custodial Agreement have each been duly
authorized, executed and delivered by each Obligor, and each constitutes a valid
and legally binding obligation of each Obligor enforceable against each Obligor
in accordance with its terms, subject, as to enforcement, to bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization and other laws of general applicability relating to
or affecting creditors' rights generally and to general equity principles.
3. No consent, approval, authorization or order of any state or federal
court or government agency or body is required to be obtained by an Obligor for
the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the
Custodial Agreement.
4. The consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the Custodial Agreement will not conflict with, result in a breach
of, or constitute a default under the governing documents of either Obligor or
the terms of any indenture or other agreement or instrument known to us to which
an Obligor is party or bound, or any order known to such counsel to be
applicable to an Obligor or any regulations applicable to an Obligor, of any
state or federal court, regulatory body, administrative agency, governmental
body or arbitrator having jurisdiction over an Obligor.
5. There is no pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding before
any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving
an Obligor or relating to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement or the
Custodial Agreement which, if adversely determined, would have a material
adverse effect on Buyer.
C-1
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
6. Each Obligor is duly registered as a finance company in each state in
which HELs were originated, to the extent such registration is required by
applicable law.
7. Each HEL will have been endorsed in a manner which satisfies any
requirement of endorsement in order to transfer all right, title and interest in
and to that HEL from the related Obligor to Buyer. Each assignment of Mortgage
related to each such HEL is in recordable form and is sufficient under
applicable law to validly and effectively transfer all right, title and interest
of the related Obligor to Buyer. This Agreement together with (a) the delivery
of such related HELs to Custodian, (b) the endorsement of such HELs to Buyer and
(c) the delivery of the assignments of Mortgages related to the HELs to the
Custodian in recordable form assigning such Mortgages to Buyer, creates a valid,
perfected security interest in such HELs in favor of Buyer. Such security
interest will have the same priority and will be subject to the same security
interests and liens as apply to such HELs in the hands of the related Obligor.

Lender's security interest only against payment to the Lender of
the Release Amount in connection with such Pledged Mortgages.
Subwarehousing Loans and the related Pledged Subwarehousing
Mortgages shall be released from the Lender's security interest

in such Pledged Mortgages or Pledged Subwarehousing Mortgages
shall be released only against payment to the Lender of the

interest in the Pledged Mortgages or Pledged Subwarehousing

Security or Company Security, then the Mortgage-backed Security
or Company Security, when issued, shall be a Pledged Security.

standing arrangements with other financial institutions for the
issuance of Pledged Securities in book entry form in the name
of such other financial institutions, as agent or financial
24
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
intermediary for the Lender, and the Borrowers agree, upon
request of the Lender, to execute and deliver to such other
financial institutions the Borrowers' written concurrence in
any such standing arrangements, provided such standing
arrangements do not authorize the Lender to pledge such Pledged
Securities (as opposed to the Lender's security interest
therein) to such financial institution.
3.2(d) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the
Borrowers may redeem a Pledged Mortgage, Pledged Subwarehousing
Mortgage or Pledged Security from the Lender's security
interest by notifying the Lender of its intention to redeem
such Pledged Mortgage, Pledged Subwarehousing Mortgage or
Pledged Security from pledge and either (a) paying, or causing

prepayment of the principal balance of the Note, the Release
Amount in connection with such Pledged Mortgage, Pledged

Default, the Lender may, with no liability to the Borrowers or
any Person, continue to release its security interest in any
Pledged Mortgage, Pledged Subwarehousing Mortgage or Pledged
Security against payment of the Release Amount in connection
with such Pledged Mortgage or Pledged Security.
3.2(f) The Release Amount in connection with any Pledged
Mortgage or Pledged Subwarehousing Mortgage shall be (i) prior

Advance made against the Subwarehousing Loan secured by such
Pledged Subwarehousing Mortgage, and (ii) from and after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
the amount paid to the Lender in a commercially reasonable
disposition of a Pledged Mortgage or the amount of the
Subwarehousing Loan secured by a Pledged Subwarehousing
Mortgage.
3.3 Mark-to-Market. If at any time the aggregate outstanding
principal balance of the Warehousing Advances and premium Advances
exceeds ninety-nine percent (99%) of the Fair Market Value of the
Pledged Mortgages and Pledged Securities (excluding Pledged
Securities to the extent backed by Pledged
25
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Subwarehousing Mortgages), then pledged hereunder, the Borrowers
shall within one (1) Business Day after Notice by the Lender either
(a) repay the Warehousing Advances and Premium Advances in an
amount sufficient to reduce the aggregate outstanding principal
balance thereof to or below ninety-nine percent of the Fair Market
Value of such Pledged Mortgages and Pledged Securities or (b)
pledge to the Lender additional Mortgage Loans owned by the
Borrower's, or other property of a type and with a value
satisfactory to the Lender in its sole discretion, with a Fair
Market Value sufficient to increase the Fair Market Value of the
Pledged Mortgages, the Pledged Securities (excluding Pledged
Securities to the extent backed by Pledged Subwarehousing Loans)
and such other assets to any amount such that ninety-nine percent
(99%) of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the
Warehousing Advances and the Premium Advances does not exceed such
Fair Market Value. The Borrowers authorize the Lender, without the
requirement of prior demand or notice from the Lender, to cause the
Funding Bank to charge the Borrowers' accounts for the amount of
any prepayment required under this Section 3.3. Such prepayments
shall be applied first, to the Premium Advances, ratably in
accordance with the outstanding principal balance of each Premium
Advances, and second, to the Warehousing Advances, ratably in
accordance with the outstanding principal balance of each
Warehousing Advance. The Lender may at any time, and shall no less
frequently than once each month, calculate the Fair Market Value of
the Pledged Mortgages and the Pledged Securities (excluding Pledged
Securities to the extent backed by Pledged Subwarehousing
Mortgages), and the Borrowers shall provide to the Lender such
information concerning the Pledged Mortgages and the Pledged
Securities as the Lender may request in connection with such
calculation.
3.4 Release of Collateral.
3.4(a) The Lender may deliver documents relating to the

Borrowers with respect to any Subwarehousing Mortgage Loan, a
Subwarehousing Borrower for correction or completion pursuant to
a Trust Receipt.

other party.

Investor or Approved Custodian shall be released by the Lender
to the Borrowers.
3.5 Collection and Servicing Rights. So long as no Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrowers shall
be entitled to service and receive and collect directly all sums
payable to the Borrowers in respect of the Collateral other than
proceeds of any Purchase Commitment or proceeds of the sale of any
Collateral. Following the occurrence of any Event of Default, the
Lender or its designee shall thereafter be entitled to service and
receive and collect all sums payable to the Borrowers in respect of
the Collateral, and in such case (a) the Lender or its designee in
its discretion may, in its own name, in the name of the Borrowers
or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or
property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in
exchange for any of the Collateral, but shall be under no
obligation to do so, (b) the Borrowers shall, if the Lender so
requests, hold in trust for the benefit of the Lender and forthwith
pay to the Lender at its office designated by Notice hereunder, all
amounts thereafter received by the Borrowers upon or in respect of
any of the Collateral, advising the Lender as to the source of such
funds, and (c) all amounts so received and collected by the Lender
shall be held by it as part of the Collateral.

unpaid, the Lender shall deliver or release its security interest
and shall deliver all Collateral in its possession to the Borrowers
at the Borrowers' expense. The receipt of the Borrowers for any

good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation,
has the full legal power and authority to own its property and to
carry on its business as currently conducted and is duly qualified

standing shall include qualification for any and all licenses and
payment of any and all taxes required in the jurisdiction of its
formation and in each jurisdiction in which Industry, IMC or the

reorganization of the partnership interests in Industry that did
not result in any net withdrawal of any partnership capital.
Neither Borrower has any Subsidiaries except as set forth on

Subsidiary, its name, address, place of incorporation, each state
in which it is qualified as a foreign corporation, and the

partnership or corporate action on the part of the Borrowers (none
of which actions have been modified or rescinded, and all of which
actions are in full force and effect) and do not and will not
conflict with or violate any provision of law or of the Partnership
Agreement of Industry or the Articles of Incorporation or bylaws of
IMC, conflict with or result in a breach of or constitute a default
or require any consent under, or result in the creation of any Lien
upon any property or assets of, Borrower other than the Lien on the
Collateral granted hereunder, or result in or require the
acceleration of any indebtedness of either Borrower pursuant to any
agreement, instrument or indenture to which either Borrower is a
party or by which either Borrower or their respective properties may
be bound or affected. This Agreement, the Note and all other Loan

Subsidiaries, on a consolidated and consolidating basis, as at the

proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrowers,

been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate
amount of the outstanding Advances and the unpaid interest
accrued thereon, even if the Lender accepts the first offer
received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one
offeree. Any sale of Collateral pursuant to the terms of a
Purchase Commitment, or any other disposition of Collateral
arranged by the Borrowers, whether before or after the
occurrence of an Event of Default, shall be deemed to have

proceed against or exhaust any of the Collateral or pursue its
rights and remedies as against the Collateral in any
particular order, or (3) pursue any other remedy in its power.

advance any sums or do any act or thing necessary to uphold
and enforce the Lien and priority of, or the security intended
to be afforded by, any Mortgage included in: the Collateral,

assessments and insurance premiums. All advances, charges,
costs and
58

<PAGE>
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements, incurred or paid by the Lender in exercising
any right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement, or in
the enforcement hereof, together with interest thereon, at the
Default Rate, from the time of payment until repaid, shall
become a part of the principal balance outstanding hereunder
and under the Note.
8.2(h) No failure on the part of the Lender to exercise,
and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy
provided hereunder, at law or in equity shall operate as a
waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by
the Lender of any right, power or remedy provided hereunder,
at law or in equity preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.
Without intending to limit the foregoing, all defenses based
on the statute of limitations are hereby waived by the
Borrowers to the extent permitted by law. The remedies herein
provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies

interest granted in the Servicing Contracts pursuant to
Section 3 hereof, as the same may be amended from time to
time. The Borrowers further acknowledge that the
Acknowledgment Agreements may contain certain provisions
concerning the enforcement by the Lender of the security
interest of the secured parties in the Servicing Contracts
subject thereto. The Borrowers agree that the disposition of
its rights in any Servicing Contract pursuant to the terms of
the applicable Acknowledgment Agreement shall be deemed
commercially reasonable within the meaning of Section 9-
504(3) of the Uniform Commercial Code of Minnesota. The
Borrowers hereby waives any claims it might otherwise have
against the Lender as a result of the Lender's compliance with
the terms of any Acknowledgment Agreement.

disposition or other enforcement of the Lender's security interest
in all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied by the
Lender:

advances made or incurred by or on behalf of the Lender in

allocated costs of internal counsel) in connection with any
investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding, whether or not
such Indemnitees shall be designated a party thereto) which may be
imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitees in any
manner relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Note, or any
other Loan Document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby (the "Indemnified Liabilities"); provided, however, that the
Borrowers shall have no obligation hereunder with respect to
Indemnified Liabilities arising from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of any such Indemnitees. To the extent that the undertaking
to indemnify, pay and hold harmless as set forth in the preceding
sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or
public policy, the Borrowers shall contribute the maximum portion which
it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment
and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the
Indemnitees or any of them. The agreement of the Borrowers contained
in this Subsection (d) shall survive the expiration or termination of
this Agreement and the payment in full of the Note Attorneys' fees and
62
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
disbursements incurred in enforcing, or on appeal from, a judgment
pursuant hereto shall be recoverable separately from and in addition to
any other amount included in such judgment, and this clause is intended
to be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement and to
survive and not be merged into such judgment.
The Borrowers shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the
Borrowers' choice at the Borrowers' expense to represent any of the
Indemnitees in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which
case the Borrowers shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and
expenses of any separate counsel retained by the Indemnitees except as
set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be
satisfactory to the Indemnitees. Notwithstanding the Borrowers election
to appoint counsel for the Indemnitees in any action, the Indemnitees
shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local
counsel), and the Borrowers shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and
expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by
the Borrowers to represent the Indemnitees would present such counsel
with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants
in, or targets of, any such action include both an Indemnitee and the
Borrowers and the Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there
may be defenses available to it that are different from or additional
to those available to the Borrowers, (iii) the Borrowers shall not have
employed counsel satisfactory to the Indemnitees within a reasonable
time after the notice of the institution of such action, (iv) the
Indemnitees shall have reasonably concluded that, due to the financial
condition of the Borrowers, not employing separate counsel could have a
material adverse effect on the outcome of such action as its relates to
the Indemnitees, or (v) the Borrowers shall authorize Lender and/or
other Indemnitees to employ separate counsel at the expense of the
Borrowers. The Borrowers will not, without the prior written consent of
the Lender and all other Indemnitees involved in the related action,
settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with
respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding
in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or
not the Borrowers are actual or potential parties to such claim or
action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent involves no
remedy other than the payment of money, has been fully satisfied (or
provision satisfactory to the Lender for the satisfaction thereof has
been made) by the Borrowers, and includes an unconditional release of
each Indemnitee from all liability arising out of such claim, action,
suit or proceeding.
11. FINANCIAL INFORMATION.
All financial statements and reports furnished to the Lender
hereunder shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied on a basis
consistent with that applied in preparing the financial statements as
at the end of and for the last fiscal year ended
63
<PAGE>
<PAGE>

practice).

Representations. The terms and provisions of this Agreement shall

12.2 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by the
Borrowers. This Agreement and the Note, along with the Lender's

Person (a "Participant"), all or part of the Obligations, provided

limitation of the exclusive right of the Lender to collect and
enforce such Obligations, the Borrowers authorize each Participant,
upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to proceed directly by

independent decisions to apply to the Lender for credit and to
execute and deliver this Agreement.
12.7 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be
declared to be illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such
illegal or unenforceable provision shall be and become absolutely
null and void and of no force and effect as though such provision

conditions and provisions hereof shall nevertheless continue to be
valid and enforceable.

Borrowers hereby waive any objection to the jurisdiction or venue
of any such court with respect to, or the convenience of any court

proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Borrowers in any other
jurisdiction or court, to the extent provided by law.

SUBORDINATION OF DEBT AGREEMENT
___________________, 19__
To: Residential Funding Corporation
8400 Normandale Lake Blvd., Suite 600
Minneapolis, Minnesota 55437
(hereinafter referred to as the "Lender")
The undersigned (hereinafter referred to as the "Creditor"), creditor of
INDUSTRY MORTGAGE COMPANY, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (hereinafter
referred to as the "Company"), desires that the Lender extend or continue to
extend such financial accommodations to the Company as the Company may require
and as the Lender may deem proper. For the purpose of inducing the Lender to
grant, continue or renew such financial accommodations, and in consideration
thereof, the Creditor agrees as follows:
1. That at the present time the Company is indebted to the Creditor in the
principal amounts set forth below:
PRINCIPAL AMOUNT
TYPE OF FACILITY OF DEBT FROM THE
OR LOAN COMPANY
__________________________ __________________________
__________________________ __________________________
__________________________ __________________________
__________________________ __________________________
__________________________ __________________________
(Notes, if any, are to be delivered to the Lender)
2. That all claims of the Creditor against the Company now or hereafter
existing are and shall be at all times subject and subordinate to any and
all claims now or hereafter which the Lender may have against the Company
(and all extensions, renewals, modifications, replacements and
substitutions of or for the same), for so long as any such claim or claims
or the Lender shall exist.
3. That the Creditor shall not (a) except to the extent expressly permitted
in Section 4 hereof, receive payment of or collect, in whole or in part, or
sue upon, any claim or claims now or hereafter existing which the Creditor
may hold against the
1
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Company; (b) sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or encumber such
claim or claims except subject expressly to this Agreement; (c) enforce any
lien the Creditor may now or in the future have on any debt owing by the
Company to the Creditor; and/or (d) join in any petition in bankruptcy,
assignment for the benefit of creditors or creditors' agreement, except as
directed by the Lender, so long as any claim of the Lender against the
Company, or commitment of the Lender to extend credit to the Company, is in
existence.
4. So long as no event described in clauses (a) through (d) of Section 6 below
(a "Liquidation Event") shall have occurred and no default shall have
occurred in payment or performance of any obligation of the Company to the
Lender, regularly scheduled payments of interest and principal on the
claims of the Creditor may be made as and when the same become due and
payable (it being understood that no prepayment shall be made of such
claims and no modification or acceleration, for default or otherwise, of
such maturity dates shall be permitted). After the occurrence of a
Liquidation Event or of default in payment or performance of any obligation
of the Company to the Lender, no interest and no principal payments on the
claims of the Creditor shall be made without the prior written consent of
the Lender. The subordination of claims of the Creditor hereunder shall
remain in effect so long as there shall be outstanding any obligation of
the Company to the Lender (for this purpose, the Company shall be deemed
obligated to the Lender so long as the Lender shall have outstanding any
commitment to make any loan to the Company, whether or not any such loan
shall have been made or advanced).
5. In the event that any Creditor receives a payment from the Company in
violation of the terms of this Agreement, such Creditor (a) shall hold such
money in trust for the benefit of Lender, (b) shall segregate such payment
from (and shall not commingle such payment with any of) the other funds of
such Creditor, and (c) shall forthwith remit such payment to Lender in the
exact form received (but with any necessary endorsement).
6. In case of (a) any assignment by the Company for the benefit of creditors,
(b) any bankruptcy proceedings instituted by or against the Company, (c)
the appointment of any receiver for the Company's business or assets, or
(d) any dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, the
Company and any assignee, trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, or other person
or persons in charge, are hereby directed to pay to the Lender the full
amount of the Lender's claim against the Company before making any payment
of principal or interest to the Creditor and the Creditor hereby sells,
transfers, sets over and assigns to the Lender all claims the Creditor may
now or
2
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
hereafter have against the Company and in any security therefor, and the
proceeds thereof, and all rights to any payments, dividends or other
distributions arising therefrom. If the Creditor does not file a proper
claim or proof of debt in the form required in such proceeding prior to
thirty (30) days before the expiration of the time to file such claim in
such proceedings, then the Lender has the right (but no obligation) to do
so and is hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim or claims for and
on behalf of the Creditor.
7. For violation of this Agreement, the Creditor shall be liable to the Lender
for all loss and damage sustained by reason of such breach, and upon any
such violation, the Lender may accelerate the maturity of its claims
against the Company, at the Lender's option.
8. The Creditor will, at any time and from time to time, promptly execute and
deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action,
that may be reasonably necessary in order to protect any right or interest
granted hereby or to enable the Lender to exercise and enforce its rights
and remedies hereunder.
9. The Creditor will not amend, extend or in any way modify the terms of its
claims against the Company, as such terms exist as of the date of this
Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Lender. The Creditor
agrees to provide to the Lender, upon the occurrence thereof, notice of the
existence of any event of default (however defined or described) under any
document or agreement relating to its claims against the Company, or any
condition, act or event, which with the giving of notice or the passage of
time or both would constitute an event of default (however defined or
described) thereunder.
10. All rights and interest of the Lender hereunder, and all agreements and
obligations of the Creditor hereunder, shall remain in full force and
effect irrespective of:
(a) any sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or other disposition of
the claims of the Lender against the Company (the "Senior Claims") and/or
any document or instrument executed in connection therewith;
(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any
other terms of, all or any of the Senior Claims, or any refinancing
thereof, or any other amendment, modification, extension or renewal of or
waiver of or any consent to departure from any document or instrument
relating thereto, including, without limitation, changes in the terms of
the repayment of loan proceeds, modifications, extensions or renewals of
payment dates, changes in interest rate or the
3
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
advancement of additional funds by the Lender in its discretion: or
(c) any exchange, release or nonperfection of any collateral, or any
release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any
guaranty, for all or any of the Senior Claims.
11. This Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case
may be, if at any time any payment or performance of all or any portion of
the Senior Claims is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Lender
or any other party to the documents relating thereto upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy or reorganization of any such party or otherwise, all as though
such payment had not been made.
12. The Creditor hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and
any other notice with respect to this Agreement and any requirement that
the Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien
or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action
against the Creditor or any other person or entity or any collateral.
13. No failure on the part of the Lender to exercise, and no delay in
exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The
remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies
provided by law.
14. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement nor consent to
any departure by the Creditor therefrom shall in any event be effective
unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Lender, and then such
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for
the specific purpose for which given.
15. The Creditor agrees to pay upon demand, to the Lender the amount of any and
all expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and
all court costs and other reasonable litigation expenses, including but not
limited to expert witness fees, document copying expenses, exhibit
preparation costs, and courier, postage and communication expenses, which
the Lender may incur in connection with the exercise or enforcement of any
of its rights or interest hereunder.
16. All notices, request and demands that may be required or otherwise provided
for or contemplated under the terms of this Agreement shall, whether or not
so stated, be in writing, and
4
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
shall be given by any of the following means: (a) personal delivery; (b)

Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Lender. The Creditor
agrees to provide to the Lender, upon the occurrence thereof, notice of the
existence of any event of default (however defined or described) under any
document or agreement relating to its claims against the Company, or any
condition, act or event, which with the giving of notice or the passage of
time or both would constitute an event of default (however defined or
described) thereunder.
10. All rights and interest of the Lender hereunder, and all agreements and
obligations of the Creditor hereunder, shall remain in full force and
effect irrespective of:
(a) any sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or other disposition of
the claims of the Lender against the Company (the "Senior Claims") and/or
any document or instrument executed in connection therewith;
(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any

advancement of additional funds by the Lender in its discretion; or
(c) any exchange, release or nonperfection of any collateral, or any
release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any
guaranty, for all or any of the Senior Claims.
11. This Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case
may be, if at any time any payment or performance of all or any portion of
the Senior Claims is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Lender
or any other party to the documents relating thereto upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy or reorganization of any such party or otherwise, all as though
such payment had not been made.
12. The Creditor hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and
any other notice with respect to this Agreement and any requirement that
the Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien
or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action
against the Creditor or any other person or entity or any collateral.
13. No failure on the part of the Lender to exercise, and no delay in
exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The
remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies
provided by law.
14. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement nor consent to
any departure by the Creditor therefrom shall in any event be effective
unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Lender, and then such
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for
the specific purpose for which given.
15. The Creditor agrees to pay upon demand, to the Lender the amount of any and
all expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and

issued by the Secretary of State of the State of Pennsylvania.(3)
The above enumerated items, numbered 1, 2 and 3 are collectively referred
to as the "Loan Documents."
The opinions which follow are subject to the following assumptions,
limitations and qualifications:
A. We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, other than of the
Borrowers and the General Partner, the authenticity of all documents
submitted to us as originals, and the conformity with the original
documents of all documents submitted to us as reproduced copies, and the
authenticity of all such latter documents.
B. We have assumed the organization, existence, good standing and capacity of
all persons and entities other than the Borrowers and the General Partner,
and that such parties, other than the Borrowers and the General Partner,
have the right, power and authority to execute and deliver the Loan
Documents and to perform thereunder.
C. We have assumed that the Lender's obligations under the Agreement are
within the powers of the Lender and have been duly and validly authorized
and that the Agreement has been duly executed and validly delivered by the
Lender.
D. As to various questions of fact material to this opinion, we have made such
factual inquiries of the Borrowers and the General Partner, and have
examined such other documents and made such examinations of applicable
laws, as we have deemed necessary for purposes of the opinions expressed
herein. However, where we state that a matter is to the best of our
knowledge, we have relied upon the written statements of the officers of
the Borrowers, with no inquiry as to the facts other than as necessary to
establish that such reliance was reasonable on our part.
Based upon such examinations and investigations, and such other
investigations and examinations as we have deemed necessary for the purposes of
the opinions expressed herein, and subject to
- ----------
(3) A certificate of good standing, dated as of a date within ninety (90) days
of the date of the Agreement, for the state where the Company is
incorporated and for each stare where the Company is transacting business
as a foreign corporation should be listed.
3
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
the assumptions stated above in paragraphs A through D, inclusive, and in our
capacity as special counsel for the Borrowers, we are of the opinion that:
1. Industry is a limited partnership duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation and has
the full legal power and authority to own its property and to carry on its
business as currently conducted.
2. Industry is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in all
jurisdictions where the ownership of its property or the conduct of its
business makes such qualification necessary.
3. Industry has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the
Loan Documents. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan
Documents by the Industry, including without limitation, the borrowings
under the Agreement and the pledge of the Collateral, have been duly and
validly authorized by all necessary partnership actions on the part of
Industry.
4. The Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by Industry. The
Loan Documents constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of
Industry and are enforceable in accordance with their respective terms
against Industry, except that enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the
rights of creditors, and general principles of equity.
5. IMC is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated and has the
full legal power and authority to own its property and to carry on its
business as currently conducted.
6. IMC is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in
good standing in all jurisdictions where the ownership of its property or
the conduct of its business makes such qualification necessary.
7. IMC has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the Loan
Documents. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by
IMC, including without limitation, the borrowings under the Agreement and
the pledge of the Collateral, have been duly and validly authorized by all
necessary actions on the part of IMC.
8. The Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by IMC. The Loan
Documents constitute the legal, valid and
4
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
binding obligations of IMC and are enforceable in accordance with their
respective terms against IMC, except that enforceability may be limited by
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws
affecting the rights of creditors, and general principles of equity.
9. Upon delivery to the Lender of those items of Collateral, consisting of
promissory notes secured by mortgages or deeds of trust ("Pledged
Mortgages") or mortgage-backed securities ("Pledged Securities"), or in the
case of Pledged Securities issued in book-entry form or issued in
certificated form and delivered to a clearing corporation (as such term is
defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) or its nominee, upon (a)
registration of such Pledged Securities in the name of a financial
intermediary (as such term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) in an
account containing only customer securities, (b) the notation of Lender's
security interest in such Pledged Securities on the records of such
financial intermediary, by book entry or otherwise, and (c) the sending by
such financial intermediary to the Lender of confirmation of such notation,
the Lender will have a valid and perfected first security interest therein.
We assume, in giving this opinion, that such items of Collateral will be
owned by the Borrowers and that, at the time the Lender's security interest
is noted on the records of any financial intermediary, such Pledged
Securities will be free of any interest created through the Federal Reserve
Bank, clearing corporation and/or financial intermediary. With respect to
Pledged Mortgages, the laws of certain jurisdictions may require the
recordation of an assignment of such deeds of trust or mortgages in order
to perfect a security interest in the deed of trust or mortgage (as opposed
to the notes secured thereby). If the Lender does not record its assignment
of deeds of trust or mortgages in such jurisdictions, we express no opinion
as to the Lender's perfected security interest in such deeds of trust and
mortgages (as opposed to the notes secured thereby) constituting part of
the Collateral.
10. The execution, delivery and performance by Industry of the Loan Documents,
will not (i) conflict with or violate any provision of the Agreement of
Limited Partnership of Industry; (ii) require any license, approval or
other action by any governmental authority that has not been obtained;
(iii) to the best of our knowledge, result in the creation of any lien,
charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of Industry other than in
favor of the Lender; (iv) to the best of our knowledge, result in a
violation or breach of any term or provision, constitute a default under,
or result in or require the acceleration of any indebtedness of Industry
pursuant to, any agreement or other instrument to which Industry may be
bound or to which Industry or any of its property may be subject; or (v)
result in any violation of the provisions of
5
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
any law or, to the best of our knowledge, any order of any court or any
governmental agency, to which Industry may be bound or to which Industry or
any of its property may be subject.
11. The execution, delivery and performance by IMC of the Loan Documents, will
not (i) conflict with or violate any provision of the Articles of
Incorporation or By-laws of IMC; (ii) require any license, approval or
other action by any governmental authority that has not been obtained;
(iii) to the best of our knowledge, result in the creation of any lien,
charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of IMC other than in
favor of the Lender; (iv) to the best of our knowledge, result in a
violation or breach of any term or provision, constitute a default under,
or result in or require the acceleration of any indebtedness of IMC
pursuant to, any agreement or other instrument to which IMC may be bound or
to which IMC or any of its property may be subject; or (v) result in any
violation of the provisions of any law or any order of any court or, to the
best of our knowledge, any governmental agency, to which IMC may be bound
or to which IMC or any of its property may be subject.
12. To the best of our knowledge, there are no actions, suits, or proceedings
pending or threatened against or affecting either Borrower, in any court or
before any arbitrator or governmental authority which, if adversely
determined, may reasonably be expected to result in any material and
adverse change in the business, operations, assets or financial condition
of the Borrowers as a whole.
13. The making of the Advances as contemplated by the Agreement will not
violate Regulation G of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System.
14. Neither Borrower is an "investment company" or "controlled" by an
"investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended.
15. The General Partner is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and
in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is
incorporated; and has the full legal power and authority to own its
property and to carry on its business as currently conducted.
16. The General Partner has the power and authority to execute and deliver the
Loan Documents, as the general partner of Industry. The execution and
delivery of the Loan Documents by the General Partner, on behalf of
Industry, have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary actions on
the part of the General Partner and will not conflict with or violate any
6
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
provision of the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the General
Partner.
This opinion may be relied upon by you and your successors and assigns and
by any participant in the Loan.
All capitalized terms used herein, not otherwise defined herein, shall have
the meanings given such terms in the Agreement.
Very truly yours,

TERMS OF GUARANTEED OBLIGATIONS
Each Borrower hereby agrees to the following terms with respect to Advances
made by the Lender to the other Borrower:
1. Each Borrower irrevocably, unconditionally and absolutely guarantees to
the Lender the due and prompt payment, and not just the collectibility, of the
principal of, and interest, fees and late charges and all other indebtedness, if
any, on the Advances made to the other Borrower when due, whether at maturity,
by acceleration or otherwise all at the times and places and at the rates
described in, and otherwise according to the terms of the Note and the
Agreement, whether now existing or hereafter created or arising.
2. Each Borrower further hereby irrevocably, unconditionally and absolutely
guarantees to the Lender the due and prompt performance by the other Borrower of
all duties, agreements and obligations of the other Borrower contained in the
Note and the Agreement, and the due and prompt payment of all costs and expenses
incurred, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, court costs and all
other litigation expenses (including but not limited to expert witness fees,

expenses), in enforcing the payment and performance of the Note and the
Agreement from the other Borrower (the payment and performance of the items set
forth in Paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Exhibit N are collectively referred to as
the ("Other Borrower Debt").
3. In the event the other Borrower shall at any time fail to pay the Lender
any Other Borrower Debt when due, whether by acceleration or otherwise, each
Borrower promises to pay such amount to the Lender forthwith, together with all
collection costs and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees,
court costs and all other litigation expenses (including but not limited to
expert witness fees, exhibit preparation, and courier, postage, communication
and document copying expenses).
4. Each Borrower does hereby (a) agree to any modifications of any terms or
conditions of any Other Borrower Debt and/or to any extensions or renewals of
time of payment or performance by the other Borrower; (b) agree that it shall
not be necessary for the Lender to resort to legal remedies against the other
Borrower, nor to take any action against any other Person obligated (an
"Obligor") on or against any collateral for payment or performance of the Other
Borrower Debt before proceedings against such Borrower; (c) agree that no
release of the other Borrower or any other guarantor or Obligor, or of any
collateral, for the Other Borrower
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Debt, whether by operation of law or by any act of the Lender, with or without
notice to such Borrower, shall release such Borrower; and (d) waive notice of
demand, dishonor, notice of dishonor, protest, and notice of protest and waive,
to the extent permitted by law, all benefit of valuation, appraisement, and
exemptions under the laws of the State of Minnesota or any other state or
territory of the United States.
5. The obligations of each Borrower for the Other Borrower Debt shall be
primary, absolute and unconditional, and shall remain in full force and effect
without regard to, and shall not be impaired or affected by: (a) the
genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of, or any amendment or
change in the Agreement or the Note, or any change in or extension of the
manner, place or terms of payment of, all or any portion of the Other Borrower
Debt; (b) the taking or failure to take any action to enforce the Agreement or
the Note, or the exercise or failure to exercise any remedy, power or privilege
contained therein or available at law or otherwise, or the waiver by the Lender
of any provisions of the Agreement or the Note; (c) any impairment,
modification, change, release or limitation in any manner of the liability of
the other Borrower or its estate in bankruptcy, or of any remedy for the
enforcement of the other Borrower's liability, resulting from the operation of
any present or future provision of the bankruptcy laws or any other statute or
regulation, or the dissolution, bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization of the
other Borrower; (d) the merger or consolidation of the other Borrower, or any
sale or transfer by the other Borrower of all or part of its assets or property;
(e) any claim such Borrower may have against the other Borrower or any other
Obligor, including any claim of contribution; (f) the release, in whole or in
part, of any other guarantor (if more than one), the other Borrower or any other
Obligor; (g) any other action or circumstance which (with or without notice to
or knowledge of such Borrower) might in any manner or to any extent vary the
risks of such Borrower or otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or
defense, it being understood and agreed by each Borrower that its obligations
for the Other Borrower Debt shall not be discharged except by the full payment
and performance of the Other Borrower Debt.
6. The Lender shall have the right to determine how, when and what
application of payments and credits, if any, whether derived from either
Borrower or from any other source, shall be made on the Obligations and any
other indebtedness owed by either Borrower and/or any other Obligor to the
Lender.
7. The obligations of each Borrower hereunder shall continue to be
effective, or be automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time
the performance or the payment, as the case may be, in whole or in part, of any
of the Other Borrower Debt is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or
returned by the Lender

(as a preference, fraudulent conveyance or otherwise) upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of either Borrower or any
other person or upon or as a result of the appointment of a custodian, receiver,
trustee or other officer with similar powers with respect to either Borrower or
any other Person, or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as
though such payments had not been made. If an Event of Default shall at any time
have occurred and be continuing or shall exist and declaration of default or
acceleration under or with respect to the Other Borrower Debt shall at such time
be prevented by reason of the pendency against either Borrower or any other
Person of a case or proceeding under a bankruptcy or insolvency law, each
Borrower agrees that its obligations for the Other Borrower Debt shall be deemed
to have been declared in default or accelerated with the same effect as if such
obligations had been declared in default and accelerated in accordance with
their respective terms and each Borrower shall forthwith perform or pay, as the
case may be, as required hereunder in accordance with the terms hereunder
without further notice or demand.
8. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably waives any claim or other rights that
he may now or hereafter acquire against other Borrower that arises from the
existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Borrower's obligations
for the Other Borrower Debt, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement,
exoneration or indemnification, any right to participate in any claim or remedy
of the Lender against the other Borrower or any collateral that the Lender now
has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in
equity or under contract, statute or common law, including the right to take or
receive from the other Borrower directly or indirectly, in cash or other
property or by set-off or in any manner, payment or security on account of such
claim or other rights. If any amount shall be paid to either Borrower in
violation of the preceding sentence and the Other Borrower Debt shall not have
been paid and performed in full, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid
to such Borrower for the benefit of, and held in trust for, the Lender and shall
forthwith be paid to the Lender to be credited and applied to the Other Borrower
Debt, whether matured or unmatured. Notwithstanding the blanket waiver of
subrogation rights as set forth above, each Borrower hereby specifically
acknowledges that any subrogation rights which it may have against the other
Borrower or any collateral that the Lender now has or hereafter acquires may be
destroyed by a nonjudicial foreclosure of the collateral. This may give such
Borrower a defense to a deficiency judgment against it. Such Borrower hereby
irrevocably waives such defense. Each Borrower acknowledges that it will receive
direct and indirect benefits from the arrangements contemplated by the Agreement
and the Note and that the waivers set forth in this Section are knowingly made
in contemplation of such benefits.

<PAGE>
9. No postponement or delay on the part of the Lender in the enforcement of
any right with respect to the Obligations of either Borrower, including, without
limitation, the Other Borrower Debt, shall constitute a waiver of such right and
all rights of the Lender hereunder shall be cumulative and not alternative and
shall be in addition to any other rights granted to the Lender in any other
agreement or by law.
10. Any indebtedness of either Borrower now or hereafter held by the other
Borrower is hereby subordinated to the indebtedness of the Borrowers to the
Lender, and such indebtedness of either Borrower to the other Borrower shall, if
the Lender so requests, be collected, enforced and received by the Borrower to
which it is owed as trustee for the Lender and be paid over to the Lender on
account of the indebtedness of the other Borrower to the Lender.

RE: Warehouse Credit and Security Agreement (Single Family
Mortgage Loans) dated as of March 1, 1996 (the
"Agreement") between INDUSTRY MORTGAGE COMPANY, L.P. and
IMC CORPORATION OF AMERICA, as Borrowers, and RESIDENTIAL
FUNDING CORPORATION, as Lender.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to the Agreement. Terms capitalized and used herein
without being defined shall have the meanings given them in the Agreement.
For purposes hereof, the following terms shall have the following meanings:
"Depository Benefit" shall mean the compensation received by the Lender,
directly or indirectly, as a result of the Borrowers' maintenance of
Eligible Balances with a Designated Bank.
"Designated Bank" means any bank(s) designated from time to time by the
Lender to be a Designated Bank with whom the Lender has an agreement under
which the Lender can receive a Depository Benefit.
"Eligible Balances" means all funds of or maintained by the Borrowers
and their Subsidiaries in non-interest bearing accounts at a Designated
Bank, less balances used to support fees, interest or other amounts that
would otherwise be payable to the Designated Bank, float, reserve
requirements, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance premiums and
such other reductions as may be imposed by governmental authorities from
time to time.
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
March 29, 1996
Page 2
"Floating Rate" means a floating rate of interest which is equal to
[certain confidential information has been omitted and filed
separately with the Commission pursuant to a Request for Confidential
Treatment] The Floating Rate will be adjusted as of the effective date of
each change in LIBOR. The Lender's determination of the Floating Rate as
of any date of determination shall be conclusive and binding, absent
manifest error.
"LIBOR" means, for each calendar week, the rate of interest per annum
which is equal to the arithmetic mean of the U.S. Dollar London Interbank
Offered Rates for one (1) month periods as of 11:00 a.m. London time on the
first Business Day of each week on which the London Interbank market is
open, as published by Knight-Ridder, Inc. on its MoneyCenter system. LIBOR
shall be rounded, if necessary, to the next higher one sixteenth of one
percent (1/16%). If such U.S. dollar LIBOR rates are not so offered or
published for any period, then during such period LIBOR shall mean the
London Interbank Offered Rate for one (1) month periods published on the
first Business Day of each week on which the London Interbank market is
open, in the Wall Street Journal in its regular column entitled "Money
Rates."
"Premium Advance Rate" means a floating rate of interest which is equal
to [certain confidential information has been omitted and filed
separately with the Commission pursuant to a Request for Confidential
Treatment] The Premium Advance Rate will be adjusted as of the effective
date of each weekly change in [certain confidential information has been
omitted and filed separately with the Commission pursuant to a
Request for Confidential Treatment]. The Lender's determination of the
Premium Advance Rate as of any date of determination shall be conclusive
and binding, absent manifest error.
Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the unpaid amount of each
Warehousing Advance and Subwarehousing Advance shall bear interest, from the
date of such Advance until paid in full, at the Floating Rate. Prior to the
occurrence of an Event of Default, the unpaid amount of each Premium Advance
shall bear interest, from the date of such Advance until paid in full, at the
Premium Advance Rate.
The Borrowers shall be entitled to receive certain benefits based on the
average monthly Eligible Balances of the Borrowers maintained at a Designated
Bank. After the end of each calendar month, the Lender will calculate the
interest due for the applicable month, by electing a portion ("Balance Funded
Portion") of the Advances which is equal to the lesser of (a) the Advances
outstanding during such month or (b) the average amount of Eligible Balances on
deposit with a Designated Bank during such month. The Balance Funded Portion of
the Advances shall bear interest at
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
March 29, 1996
Page 3
balance funded rates of (a) [certain confidential information has been
omitted and filed separately with the Commission pursuant to a Request
for Confidential Treatment] for the Balance Funded Portion of Warehousing
Advances, and (b) [certain confidential information has been omitted
and filed separately with the Commission pursuant to a Request for
Confidential Treatment] for the Balance Funded Portion of Premium Advances.
The Balance Funded Portion of the Advances outstanding for a month shall be
determined by (a) first, deducting the average amount of Warehousing Advances
and Subwarehousing Advances outstanding for a month from the average amount of
Eligible Balances during such month, but only to the extent of the average
amount of Eligible Balances, and (b) second, to the extent Eligible Balances
remain for such month, deducting the average amount of Premium Advances
outstanding for a month from the remaining average amount of Eligible Balances
during such month, but only to the extent of the remaining average amount of
Eligible Balances.
If, for any month, a portion of the average amount of Eligible Balances
remains ("Remainder") after the Balance Funded Portion has been deducted, the
Lender shall provide a benefit in the form of an "Earnings Credit" on the
Remainder portion of the Eligible Balances maintained in time deposit accounts
with the Designated Bank, and the Lender shall provide a benefit in the form of
an "Earnings Allowance" on the Remainder portion of the Eligible Balances
maintained in demand deposit accounts with the Designated Bank. Any Earnings
Allowance shall be used first and any Earnings Credit shall be used second as a
credit against accrued Miscellaneous Charges and fees, including, but not
limited to Non-Usage Fees, and may be used, at the Lender's option, to reduce
accrued interest. Any Earnings Allowance not used during the month in which the
benefit was received shall be accumulated for use and must be used during the
calendar year in which the benefit was received. Any Earnings Credit not used
during the month in which the benefit was received shall be used to provided a
cash benefit to the Borrowers.
The Lender's determination of the Balance Funded Portion, the Earnings
Credit and the Earnings Allowance for any month shall be determined by the
Lender in its sole discretion and shall be conclusive and binding absent
manifest error. In no event shall the benefit received by the Borrowers exceed
the Depository Benefit.
Either party hereto may terminate the benefits provided for in the four
preceding paragraphs, effective immediately upon Notice to the other party, if
the terminating party shall have determined (which determination shall be
conclusive and binding absent manifest error) at any time that any applicable
law, rule, regulation, order or decree or any interpretation or administration
thereof by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by such
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
March 29, 1996
Page 4
party with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of
any such authority, shall make it unlawful or impossible for such party to
continue to offer or receive the benefits provided for in this Section.
Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and applied to
the actual number of days elapsed in each interest calculation period and shall
be payable monthly in arrears, on the tenth day of each month, commencing with
the first month following the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date. Except
with respect to interest due on the Maturity Date, the Lender shall provide the
Borrowers with a statement of interest due no later than five (5) days before
the date such interest is due. Failure of the Lender to deliver the statement of
interest to the Borrowers does not negate the Borrowers' obligation to pay.
If, for any reason, no interest is due on an Advance, the Borrowers agree
to pay to the Lender an administrative fee equal to one day of interest on such
Advance at the rate applicable to such Advances under the applicable section
hereof, as in effect on the date of such Advance. Administrative and other fees
shall be due and payable in the same manner as interest is due and payable
hereunder.
Upon and after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default hereunder, the Lender may give Notice to the Borrowers that the unpaid
amount of each Advance shall bear interest, until paid in full, at a rate of
interest (the "Default Rate") equal to four percent (4%) per annum over the
applicable rate provided in the applicable subsection of this Section 2.4 or, if
no rate is applicable, the highest rate then applicable to any outstanding
Advance.
The Borrowers may, from time to time, prepay a portion of the Advances
pursuant to this Section 2.4(g) (any such prepayment is hereafter referred to as
a "Buydown"). A Buydown shall not entitle the Borrowers to the release of any
Collateral. All or any portion of a Buydown may be reborrowed hereunder,
provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon
written notice to the Lender no later than 9:30 a.m. on the Business Day that
the Borrowers desire to reborrow such amount. The Lender shall use its best
efforts to apply the Buydown to reduce interest on the Advances as follows:
first, Premium Advances; and second, other Advances. In the event the Lender
receives a payment of Advances that would, as a result of the Buydown, reduce
the outstanding principal balance of the Advances to an amount less than zero,
unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Buydown,
or a portion thereof equal to such excess, shall be re-advanced to the
Borrowers.

<PAGE>
March 29, 1996
Page 5
At the end of each calendar quarter during the term hereof commencing with
the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 1996, the Lender shall determine the
average usage of the Commitment by calculating the arithmetic daily average of
the Advances outstanding during such calendar quarter (or, in the case of the
period ending June 30, 1996, from the Closing Date through June 30, 1996). The
Lender shall then subtract such quarter average usage (the 'Used Portion') from
the Commitment (and the result thereof shall be known as the 'Unused Portion'),
and the Borrowers shall pay in arrears, within thirty (30) days after the end of
each calendar quarter, a Non-Usage Fee (the 'Non-Usage Fee') equal to [certain
confidential information has been omitted and filed separately with the
Commission pursuant to a Request for Confidential Treatment] per annum on the
total amount of the Unused Portion of the Commitment during esuch calendar
quarter; provided, however, that no Non-Usage Fee shall be payable for any
Calendar Quarter in which the Used Portion equals or exceeds fifty percent (50%)
of the average Commitment Amount in effect during such calendar quarter. If the
expiration date of the Commitment is other than the last day of a calendar
quarter, the Borrowers shall pay the prorated protion of the quarterly Non-Usage
Fee due from the beginning of the then current quarter to and including the
expiration date. For the purposes hereof, quarters shall be defined as beginning
April 1, July 1, October 1 and January 1. In the absence of manifest error, the
calculation by the Lender of the amount of any Non-Usage Fee shall be
conclusive.
The Borrowers agree to reimburse the Lender for miscellaneous charges and
expenses (collectively, "Miscellaneous Charges") incurred by or on behalf of the
Lender in connection with the handling and administration of Advances, and to
reimburse the Lender for Miscellaneous Charges incurred by or on behalf of the
Lender in connection with the handling and administration of the Collateral. For
the purposes hereof, Miscellaneous Charges shall include, but not be limited to,
charges for wire transfers, charges for security delivery fees, charges for
overnight delivery of Collateral to Investors, Funding Bank's service charges
and Designated Bank's service charges. Miscellaneous Charges are due when
incurred, but shall not be delinquent if paid within fifteen (15) days after
receipt of an invoice or an account analysis statement from the Lender.
All agreements between the Borrowers and the Lender are hereby expressly
limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of
acceleration of maturity of the Agreement or the Note or otherwise, shall the
amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Lender for the use, forbearance, loaning
or retention of the Advances securea by this Agreement exceed the maximum
permissible under applicable law. If from any circumstances whatsoever,
fulfillment of any provisions hereof or of the Note, or any other document
securing this Agreement at any time given shall involve
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
March 29, 1996
Page 6
transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, then, the obligation to be
fulfilled shall automatically be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if
from any circumstances the Lender should ever receive as interest an amount
which would exceed the highest lawful rate of interest, such amount which would
be in excess of interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal
balance secured by the Note and not to the payment of interest thereunder. This
provision shall control every other provision of all agreements between the
Borrowers and Lender and shall also be binding upon and available to any
subsequent holder of the Note.
In the event any applicable law, order, regulation or directive issued by
any governmental or monetary authority, or any change therein or in the
governmental or judicial interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by
the Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of
law) by any governmental or monetary authority:
Does or shall subject the Lender to any tax of any kind
whatsoever with respect to the Agreement or any Advances
made hereunder, or change the basis of taxation on payments
to the Lender of principal, fees, interest or any other
amount payable hereunder (except for change in the rate of
tax on the overall gross or net income of the Lender by the
jurisdictions in which the Lender's principal office is
located);
Does or shall impose, modify or hold applicable any
reserve, capital requirement, special deposit, compulsory
loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or
deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of,
advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any
other acquisition of funds by, any office of the Lender
which are not otherwise included in the determination of the
interest rate as calculated hereunder;
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Lender of
making, renewing or maintaining any Advance or to reduce any amount receivable
in respect thereof or to reduce the rate of return on the capital of the Lender
or any person controlling the Lender as it relates to credit facilities in the
nature of that evidenced by the Agreement, then, in any such case, the Borrowers
shall promptly pay any additional amounts necessary to compensate the Lender for
such additional cost or reduced amounts receivable or reduced rate of return as
determined by the Lender with respect to the Agreement or Advances made
thereunder, provided, that the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay any such
additional amount (i) unless the Lender shall first have notified

the Borrowers in writing that it intends to seek such compensation pursuant to
this Section, or (ii) to the extent such additional amounts or any portion
thereof are attributable to the period ending 91 days prior to the date of the
first such notice with respect to the applicable legal or regulatory change (the
"Excluded Period"), except to the extent any amount is attributable to the
Excluded Period as a result of the retroactive application of the applicable
legal or regulatory change. If the Lender notifies the Borrowers in writing that
it is entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, the
Borrowers shall pay such amount within fifteen (15) days thereafter. A
certificate as to any additional amount payable pursuant to the foregoing
sentence containing the calculation thereof in reasonable detail submitted by
the Lender to the Borrowers shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest
error. The obligations of the Borrowers under this paragraph shall survive the
payment of all other Obligations and the termination of the Agreement.
Your acknowledgement of this letter is a condition to the willingness of
the Lender to make Advances under the Agreement. Please acknowledge this letter
in the space provided below to indicate your agreement to the terms set forth in
this letter.
Very truly yours,
