      STATEMENT REGARDING ASSUMPTIONS AS TO SECURITIES, PRICING ESTIMATES,
                              AND OTHER INFORMATION

The information contained in the attached materials (the "Information") may
include various forms of performance analysis, security characteristics and
securities pricing estimates for the securities addressed. Please read and
understand this entire statement before utilizing the Information. Should you
receive Information that refers to the "Statement Regarding Assumptions and
Other Information," please refer to this statement instead.

The Information is illustrative and is not intended to predict actual results
which may differ substantially from those reflected in the Information.
Performance analysis is based on certain assumptions with respect to significant
factors that may prove not to be as assumed. You should understand the
assumptions and evaluate whether they are appropriate for your purposes.
Performance results are based on mathematical models that use inputs to
calculate results. As with all models, results may vary significantly depending
upon the value of the inputs given. Inputs to these models include but are not
limited to: prepayment expectations (economic prepayment models, single expected
lifetime prepayments or a vector of periodic prepayments), interest rate
assumptions (parallel and nonparallel changes for different maturity
instruments), collateral assumptions (actual pool level data, aggregated pool
level data, reported factors or imputed factors), volatility assumptions
(historically observed or implied current) and reported information (paydown
factors, rate resets, and trustee statements). Models used in any analysis may
be proprietary making the results difficult for any third party to reproduce.
Contact your registered representative for detailed explanations of any modeling
techniques employed in the Information.

The Information addresses only certain aspects of the applicable security's
characteristics and thus does not provide a complete assessment. As such, the
Information may not reflect the impact of all structural characteristics of the
security, including call events and cash flow priorities at all prepayment
speeds and/or interest rates. You should consider whether the behavior of these
securities should be tested as assumptions different from those included in the
Information. The assumptions underlying the Information, including structure and
collateral, may be modified from time to time to reflect changed circumstances.
Any investment decision should be based only on the data in the prospectus and
the prospectus supplement or private placement memorandum (Offering Documents)
and the then current version of the Information. Offering Documents contain data
that is current as of their publication dates and after publication may no
longer be complete or current.. Contact your registered representative for
Offering Documents, current Information or additional materials, including other
models for performance analysis, which are likely to produce different results,
and any further explanation regarding the Information.

Any pricing estimates Bear Stearns has supplied at your request (a) represent
our view, at the time determined, of the investment value of the securities
between the estimated bid and offer levels, the spread between which may be
significant due to market volatility or illiquidity, (b) do not constitute a bid
by any person for any security, (c) may not constitute prices at which the
securities could have been purchased or sold in any market, (d) have not been
confirmed by actual trades, may vary from the value Bear Stearns assigns any
such security while in its inventory, and may not take into account the size of
a position you have in the security, and (e) may have been derived from matrix
pricing that uses data relating to other securities whose prices are more
readily ascertainable to produce a hypothetical price based on the estimated
yield spread relationship between the securities.


<PAGE>


General Information: The data underlying the Information has been obtained from
sources that we believe are reliable, but we do not guarantee the accuracy of
the underlying data or computations based thereon. Bear, Stearns. and/or
individuals thereof may have positions in these securities while the Information
is circulating or during such period may engage in transactions with the issuer
or its affiliates. We act as principal in transactions with you, and
accordingly, you must determine the appropriateness for you of such transactions
and address any legal, tax, or accounting considerations applicable to you. Bear
Stearns shall not be a fiduciary or advisor unless we have agreed in writing to
receive compensation specifically to act in such capacities. If you are subject
to ERISA, the Information is being furnished on the condition that it will not
form a primary basis for any investment decision. The Information is not a
solicitation of any transaction in securities which may be made only by
prospectus when required by law, in which event you may obtain such prospectus
from Bear Stearns.

STATEMENT REGARDING ASSUMPTIONS AS TO SECURITIES, PRICING ESTIMATES, AND
OTHER INFORMATION

The information contained in the attached materials (the "Information") may
include various forms of performance analysis, security characteristics and
securities pricing estimates for the securities addressed. Please read and
understand this entire statement before utilizing the Information. Should you
receive Information that refers to the "Statement Regarding Assumptions and
Other Information," please refer to this statement instead.

The Information is illustrative and is not intended to predict actual
results which may differ substantially from those reflected in the Information.
Performance analysis is based on certain assumptions with respect to significant
factors that may prove not to be as assumed. You should understand the
assumptions and evaluate whether they are appropriate for your purposes.
Performance results are based on mathematical models that use inputs to
calculate results. As with all models, results may vary significantly depending
upon the value of the inputs given. Inputs to these models include but are not
limited to: prepayment expectations (economic prepayment models, single expected
lifetime prepayments or a vector of periodic prepayments), interest rate
assumptions (parallel and nonparallel changes for different maturity
instruments), collateral assumptions (actual pool level data, aggregated pool
level data, reported factors or imputed factors), volatility assumptions
(historically observed or implied current) and reported information (paydown
factors, rate resets, and trustee statements). Models used in any analysis may
be proprietary making the results difficult for any third party to reproduce.
Contact your registered representative for detailed explanations of any modeling
techniques employed in the Information.

The Information addresses only certain aspects of the applicable security's
characteristics and thus does not provide a complete assessment. As such, the
Information may not reflect the impact of all structural characteristics of the
security, including call events and cash flow priorities at all prepayment
speeds and/or interest rates. You should consider whether the behavior of these
securities should be tested as assumptions different from those included in the
Information. The assumptions underlying the Information, including structure and
collateral, may be modified from time to time to reflect changed circumstances.
Any investment decision should be based only on the data in the prospectus and
the prospectus supplement or private placement memorandum (Offering Documents)
and the then current version of the Information. Offering Documents contain data
that is current as of their publication dates and after publication may no
longer be complete or current.. Contact your registered representative for
Offering Documents, current Information or additional materials, including other
models for performance analysis, which are likely to produce different results,
and any further explanation regarding the Information.

Any pricing estimates Bear Stearns has supplied at your request (a) represent
our view, at the time determined, of the investment value of the securities
between the estimated bid and offer levels, the spread between which may be
significant due to market volatility or illiquidity, (b) do not constitute a bid
by any person for any security, (c) may not constitute prices at which the
securities could have been purchased or sold in any market, (d) have not been
confirmed by actual trades, may vary from the value Bear Stearns assigns any
such security while in its inventory, and may not take into account the size of
a position you have in the security, and (e) may have been derived from matrix
pricing that uses data relating to other securities whose prices are more
readily ascertainable to produce a hypothetical price based on the estimated
yield spread relationship between the securities.

General Information: The data underlying the Information has been obtained from
sources that we believe are reliable, but we do not guarantee the accuracy of
the underlying data or computations based thereon. Bear, Stearns. and/or
individuals thereof may have positions in these securities while the Information
is circulating or during such period may engage in transactions with the issuer
or its affiliates. We act as principal in transactions with you, and
accordingly, you must determine the appropriateness for you of such transactions
and address any legal, tax, or accounting considerations applicable to you. Bear
Stearns shall not be a fiduciary or advisor unless we have agreed in writing to
receive compensation specifically to act in such capacities. If you are subject
to ERISA, the Information is being furnished on the condition that it will not
form a primary basis for any investment decision. The Information is not a
solicitation of any transaction in securities which may be made only by
prospectus when required by law, in which event you may obtain such prospectus
from Bear Stearns.

Credit Enhancement:                     Credit Enhancement with respect to the
                                        Certificates will be provided by (1)
                                        excess servicing, (2)
                                        overcollateralization, and (3) the
                                        subordination described below.

                                        Excess Servicing. The weighted average
                                        coupon rate on the home equity loans is
                                        generally expected to be higher than the
                                        sum of a) the servicing fee, b) the
                                        trustee fee, and c) the weighted average
                                        pass through rate on the certificates,
                                        thus generating excess interest
                                        collections which will be available to
                                        fund distributions on the certificates.
                                        This excess interest for each period,
                                        together with interest on the
                                        overcollateralization amount itself, on
                                        the related payment date is the excess
                                        servicing for such payment date.

                                        Overcollateralization: Excess servicing
                                        is applied, to extent available, to make
                                        accelerated payments of principal to the
                                        class or classes then entitled to
                                        receive distributions of principal; such
                                        application will cause the aggregate
                                        principal balance of the certificates to
                                        amortize more rapidly than the home
                                        equity loans, resulting in
                                        overcollateralization. Prior to the step
                                        down date, overcollateralization builds
                                        to [2.15]% of the Maximum Collateral
                                        Amount. On or after the step down date,
                                        overcollateralization is permitted to
                                        decrease, subject to certain performance
                                        tests, to an amount equal to [4.30]% of
                                        the current aggregate outstanding loan
                                        balance of the home equity loans,
                                        subject to a floor of [0.50]% of the
                                        Maximum Collateral Amount.

                                        M-1 Certificates to receive

                                        Application of Realized Losses: Realized
                                        losses will be absorbed first by excess
                                        servicing and the reduction of the

       (a)   Represents the expected amount of subordination for each
             class as of the closing date.

       (b)   The overcollateralization amount will equal zero as of the

Step Down Date:               The step down date is the earlier to occur of 1)
                              the later to occur of a) the payment date in
                              [April], 2001 and b) the first payment date on
                              which the senior enhancement percentage reaches
