CLASS M CERTFICIATES: Class M-1, Class M-2 and Class M-3 Certificates
OTHER CERTIFICATES: In addition to the Offered Certificates, the Trust will also issue the Class
AIO, Class O, Class P and the Residual Certificates.
The Class P Certificates will be entitled to all prepayment penalties received
in respect of the mortgage loans and such amounts will not be available for
distribution to the holders of the Offered Certificates. The Class AIO
Certificateholders will be entitled to receive the excess interest which is the
weighted average interest due on the mortgage loans less the
Administrative Fees and the interest payable on the Offered Certificates.
The Class O is a subordinate class, and represents the Overcollateralization
Amount.
CUT-OFF DATE: March 1, 2000
EXP. PRICING DATE: March [24], 2000
THE MORTGAGE LOAN The mortgage pool will consist of conventional, monthly payment, all of
POOL: them first lien mortgage loans with terms to maturity of not more than 30
years from the date of origination or modification. The mortgage pool will
consist of both adjustable-rate mortgage loans ("ARMs") and fixed-rate
mortgage loans. The initial mortgage pool consists of approximately
56.21% ARMs and 43.79% fixed-rate mortgage loans.
.
DISTRIBUTION DATE: The 25th day of each month or if such 25th day is not a business day, the
next succeeding business day (each a "Distribution Date"), commencing on
April 25, 2000.
FINAL DISTRIBUTION DATE: The final scheduled Distribution Date for all the Certificates is July 25,
2031. It is anticipated that the actual final payment on each class will
occur significantly earlier then the indicated date.
RECORD DATE: For all the Offered Certificates, the Record Date is the last business day
prior to the Distribution Date, except that the Record Date for the first
Distribution Date is the Closing Date.
DUE PERIOD: A Due Period with respect to any Distribution Date is the period
commencing on the second day of the month preceding the month in which
such Distribution Date occurs and ending on the first day of the month in
which such Distribution Date occurs.
PRE-FUNDING AMOUNT: On the closing date the Trust will deposit $101,715,093.81 into a pre-
funding account which will be used from time to time on or before June 29,
2000, to acquire subsequent mortgage loans.
To the extent that the Trust does not fully use amounts on deposit in the
pre-funding account to purchase additional mortgage loans by June 29,
2000, the Trust will apply the remaining amounts as a prepayment of the
principal of the Certificates on the Distribution Date on July 25, 2000.
Although no assurance is possible, we do not anticipate that a material
amount of principal will be prepaid on the Certificates from amounts in the

pre-funding account.
ERISA: The Class A-1 Certificates may be purchased by plans after the pre-funding
has been completed, provided that certain conditions are satisfied. A
fiduciary of any ERISA plan that is considering a purchase of Certificates
should, among other things, consult with experienced legal counsel in
determining whether all required conditions for purchase have been
satisfied.
The Class M Certificates may not be acquired by or on behalf of an ERISA
plan except as described in the prospectus supplement. Each investor in a
Class M Certificate purchased in book-entry form will be deemed to
represent that it complies with the restrictions described under
"Considerations for Benefit Plan Investors" in this prospectus supplement.
SMMEA: The Class A-1 and Class M-1 Certificates will constitute "mortgage related
securities" for purposes of SMMEA, for so long as they are rated in at least
the second highest rating category by one or more nationally recognized
statistical rating agencies. Institutions whose investment activities are
subject to legal investment laws and regulations or to review by certain
regulatory authorities may be subject to restrictions on investment in the
Certificates.
TAX STATUS: The Trust will elect to be treated as one or more Real Estate Mortgage
Investment Conduits ("REMIC"s) for federal income tax purposes. The
Offered Certificates will be designated as "regular interests" in a REMIC.
Certificateholders will include interest on the Certificates in income in
accordance with an accrual method of accounting.
CLEAN-UP CALL: The Servicer has a clean-up call which, if exercised, would result in early
redemption of the Certificates, on any Distribution Date after the aggregate
principal balance of the mortgage loans has declined to 10% or less of the
sum of the principal balance of the initial mortgage loans plus the principal
balance of each subsequent mortgage loan acquired through the pre-funding feature.
BOOK ENTRY FORMAT: The Certificates will be issued, maintained and transferred on the book-
entry records of the Depository Trust Company. The Certificates will be
offered in registered form, in minimum denominations of $25,000 and
integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
EXPECTED PRICING With respect to the adjustable-rate mortgage loans, the prepayment model
SPEED: assumes a constant CPR of 30% (such model, a "prepayment assumption").
With respect to the fixed-rate mortgage loans, the prepayment model
assumes a constant CPR of 2.4% in the first month of the life of the Fixed-
rate mortgage loans and an additional 2.4% per annum in each month
thereafter until the tenth month. Beginning in the tenth month and in each
month thereafter, the prepayment model assumes a CPR of 24% (such
model, also a "prepayment assumption").

STRUCTURE
THE TRUST: The Certificates will be backed by the Trust estate created by the pooling
and servicing agreement, which consists primarily of the following:
o The mortgage loans;
o Collections in respect of principal and interest of the mortgage loans
received after the Cut-off Date (other than payments due on or
before the Cut-off Date);
o The amounts on deposit in the collection account, including the
payment account in which amounts are deposited prior to payment
to the Certificateholders, including net investment earnings;
o Mortgage insurance policies and certain other insurance policies
maintained by the mortgagors or by or on behalf of the Servicer or
any sub-servicer;
o An assignment of the seller's rights under the purchase agreement;
o Amounts on deposit in the interest coverage account and the pre-
funding account;
o An assignment of the seller's rights under the converted loan
purchase agreement; and
o Proceeds , if any, from the interest rate cap agreements.
AVAILABLE FUNDS: The Available Funds for each Distribution Date will equal the amount
received by the Trustee and available in the payment account on that
Distribution Date. The Available Funds will generally be equal to the sum
of, net of Administrative Fees and amounts reimbursable to the Servicer,
the following amounts:
o The aggregate amount of scheduled payments on the mortgage loans
due on the prior Due Date and received on or prior to the
Determination Date,
o Investment earnings on amounts in the payment account, plus
miscellaneous fees and collections, including assumption fees and
prepayment penalties, but excluding late fees,
o Any unscheduled payments and receipts, including mortgagor
prepayments on the mortgage loans, received during the prior
prepayment period and proceeds of repurchases, and adjustments
in the case of substitutions and terminations, net liquidation
proceeds, insurance proceeds, proceeds from any mortgage
insurance policy and proceeds from the sale of converted mortgage
loans,
o All advances made for that Distribution Date. In addition, on the
Distribution Date which follows the termination of the pre-funding

period, Available Funds will include the remaining amount on deposit in the pre-funding
account at that time. During the pre- funding period, Available Funds will also include the
withdrawn amount from the interest coverage account, and
o Amounts on deposit in the supplemental interest account from interest rate cap
agreements.
INTEREST: On each Distribution Date, the holders of each class of Certificates will be entitled to
receive an interest payment amount equal to interest accrued on the related Certificate
principal balance immediately prior to such Distribution Date at the related pass-through
rate for the related accrual period.
The pass-through rate for each class and Distribution Date is the lesser of (1) the formula
rate for that class and Distribution Date and (2) the Available Funds Cap Rate for that
Distribution Date.
The formula rate for each class is as follows:
Prior to the Rate Step Up Date
Class Rate
A-1 LIBOR plus %
M-1 LIBOR plus %
M-2 LIBOR plus %
M-3 LIBOR plus %
On or after the Rate Step Up Date
Class Rate
A-1 LIBOR plus %
M-1 LIBOR plus %
M-2 LIBOR plus %
M-3 LIBOR plus %
The "Rate Step Up Date" is the first Distribution Date to occur after the Clean-up Call
Date. If the Clean-Up Call is not exercised, the margin on the Class A-1 Certificates will
increase to 2x the Class A-1 margin, and the margin on the Class M-1, M-2, and M-3
Certificates will increase to 1.5x their related margins.
AVAILABLE FUNDS CAP
RATE: The "available funds cap rate" for each Distribution Date is the percentage equivalent of a
fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the Interest Remittance Formula Amount plus any
Supplemental Interest Payment, less the Administrative Fees for that Distribution Date, and
the denominator of which is equal to the product of (1) the number of days in the current
month divided by 360 and (2) the aggregate Certificate principal balance of the Offered
Certificates immediately prior to that Distribution Date.
With respect to each Class and any Distribution Date, to the extent that the amount of
interest paid to a class is reduced because the formula rate exceeds the Available Funds Cap
Rate (such excess amount, the related

"Available Funds Cap Carry-Forward Amount"), such amount will be carried forward and
distributed to the holders of that Class, together with interest on that amount at the
related formula rate applicable from time to time.
Interest on the Certificates will accrue during each accrual period. The accrual period is
the period from the prior Distribution Date through and including the day preceding the
related Distribution Date. In the case of the first Distribution Date, interest begins to
accrue on the closing date. Interest will accrue on the basis of the actual number of days
in the accrual period and a 360 day year.
ADMINISTRATIVE FEES: Mortgage insurance fees, trustee fees and servicing fees.
SERVICING FEE: 50 basis points per annum
INTEREST REMITTANCE AMOUNT: For any Distribution Date, that portion of the Available Funds for that Distribution Date
allocable to interest.
INTEREST REMITTANCE
FORMULA AMOUNT: For any Distribution Date, is an amount equal to (1) the product of (x) 1/12 of the weighted
average coupon rate of the mortgage loan pool as of the beginning of the prior due period
and (y) the aggregate principal balances of the mortgage loans as of the beginning of the
prior due period minus (2) the aggregate amount of Relief Act shortfalls and prepayment
interest shortfalls for the prior period.
INTEREST ALLOCATION: On each Distribution Date the Trustee will first distribute the prepayment penalties
collected during the prior prepayment period to the holders of the Class P
Certificates. After making that distribution, the trustee will apply that portion of
the available funds which represents the Interest Remittance Amount for that
Distribution Date, to the payment of any Administrative Fees of the Trust which are due
on that Distribution Date, and will then apply the remaining Interest Remittance Amount
to the payment of interest then due on the Certificates in the following order of
priority:
(i) First, to the holders of the Class AIO Certificates and the holders of the Class
A-1 Certificates, the Class AIO Monthly Interest Distributable Amount and the
Class A-1 Monthly Interest Distributable Amount; these payments are of equal
priority to those two classes, and, in the event that the remaining Interest
Remittance Formula Amount is insufficient to pay both classes the full amount due,
the amount paid to the holders of each of these two classes will be a pro rata
portion of the remaining Interest Remittance Formula Amount, with the allocation
based on the relative proportions of the Class AIO Monthly Interest Distributable
Amount and the Class A-1 Monthly Interest Distributable Amount;
(ii) Second, to the holders of the Class M-1 Certificates, the

Monthly Interest Distributable Amount for Class M-1;
(iii) Third, to the holders of the Class M-2 Certificates, the Monthly Interest
Distributable Amount for Class M-2;
(iv) Fourth, to the holders of the Class M-3 Certificates, the Monthly Interest
Distributable Amount for Class M-3; and
(v) Fifth, to the holders of each class of offered certificates, the Available Funds
Cap Carry-Forward Amount for that class, such amount to be paid in the following
order of priority: Class A-1, Class M-1, Class M-2 and Class M-3; and
(vi) Sixth, to the holders of the Class RESIDUAL Certificates, any remainder.
On any Distribution Date, any shortfalls resulting from the application of the Civil Relief
Act and any prepayment interest shortfalls to the extent not covered by compensating
interest paid by the servicer will be applied to reduce the Monthly Interest Distributable
Amounts with respect to the Class A-1, Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3 and Class AIO
Certificates on a pro rata basis, based on the respective amounts of interest accrued on
such Certificates for such Distribution Date. The holders of the Certificates will not be
entitled to reimbursement for any such interest shortfalls.
MONTHLY INTEREST DISTRIBUTABLE
AMOUNT: The Monthly Interest Distributable Amount on any Distribution Date and for each class of
Offered Certificates equals the amount of interest accrued during the related accrual period
at the related formula rate on the Certificate Principal Balance of such class immediately
prior to such Distribution Date plus the Unpaid Interest Shortfall Amount for that class and
distribution date.
UNPAID INTEREST
SHORTFALL: The Unpaid Interest Shortfall Amount means (i) for each class of Offered Certificates (and
the Class AIO Certificates), and the first Distribution Date, zero, and (ii) with respect to
each class of Offered Certificates and any Distribution Date after the first Distribution
Date, the amount, if any, by which (a) the Monthly Interest Distributable Amount for such
class for the immediately preceding Distribution Date exceeds (b) the aggregate amount
distributed on such class in respect of interest pursuant to clause (a) of this definition
on such preceding Distribution Date, plus interest on that amount to the extent permitted by
law, at the pass-through rate for such class for the related accrual period.
SUPPLEMENTAL INTEREST
PAYMENTS: The holders of the Offered Certificates may be entitled to Supplemental Interest Payments.
Supplemental Interest Payments are amounts which will be paid to the holders of the Offered
Certificates if their formula rate was limited by the Available Funds Cap Rate, but only to
the limited extent that moneys are then available under certain cap agreements held

by the Trustee.
The payments under the Cap Agreements ("Cap Payments") will be deposited into the
supplemental interest account held by the trustee. Amounts on deposit in the supplemental
interest account will also be used to fund the Available Funds Cap Carry-Forward Amounts.
The Cap Agreements pay quarterly, have varying tenors through February 2003.
In each month in which Cap Payments are received, one-third of the amount received will be
available to increase the available funds cap rate (and, as a second priority, to fund any
Available Funds Cap Carry-Forward Amount) on each of the next three distribution dates. To
the extent these moneys are not needed for a distribution date, they will be retained by the
trustee and added to the one-third figure otherwise available on the next distribution date.
If, however, these amounts have not been applied by the close of the third distribution date
following receipt, they will be paid to the holders of the Class AIO Certificates.
PRINCIPAL: On each Distribution Date, the Certificateholders are scheduled to receive an amount of
principal generally equal to the sum of:
o The scheduled principal on the mortgage loans collected or advanced during the
prior period; and
o Unscheduled principal on the mortgage loans collected during the prior prepayment
period.
The Class M Certificates are unlikely to receive any principal payments until, at the
earliest, the Distribution Date occurring on April 25, 2003.
The principal will be distributed to the Certificateholders of each class in accordance with
a payment priority, which is designed to maintain a specified level of support below each
class. This support consists of the Certificates that are more subordinated to that class,
as well as the Overcollateralization, which is subordinated to all classes of the Offered
Certificates.
PRINCIPAL ALLOCATION: On each Distribution Date (a) prior to the Crossover Date or (b) on which a Trigger Event
is in effect, the holders of each class of Certificates shall be entitled to receive
distributions in respect of principal to the extent of the Principal Distribution Amount in
the following amounts and order of priority:
(i) First, to the holders of the Class A-1 Certificates, the entire amount of
the Principal Distribution Amount, until the Certificate Principal Balance
of the Class A-1 Certificates has been reduced to zero;
(ii) Second, to the holders of the Class M-1 Certificates, the entire amount of
the Principal Distribution Amount until the Certificate principal balance
of the Class M-1 Certificates has been reduced to zero;

(iii) Third, to the holders of Class M-2 Certificates, the entire amount of the
Principal Distribution Amount until the Certificate Principal Balance of
the Class M-2 Certificates has been reduced to zero;
(iv) Fourth, to the holders of the Class M-3 Certificates, the entire amount of
the Principal Distribution Amount until the Certificate Principal Balance
of the Class M-3 Certificates has been reduced to zero; and
(v) Fifth, to the holders of the Class O Certificates, any remainder.
On each Distribution Date (a) on or after the Crossover Date and (b) on which a Trigger
Event is not in effect, the holders of each class of Certificates shall be entitled to
receive distributions in respect of principal to the extent of the Principal Distribution
Amount in the following amounts and order of priority:
(i) First, to the holders of the Class A-1 Certificates, the Class A-1
Principal Distribution Amount, until the Certificate Principal Balance of
the A-1 Certificates has been reduced to zero;
(ii) Second, to the holders of the Class M-1 Certificates, the Class M-1
Principal Distribution Amount, until the Certificate Principal Balance of
the Class M-1 Certificates has been reduced to zero;
(iii) Third, to the holders of the Class M-2 Certificates, the Class M-2
Principal Distribution Amount, until the Certificate Principal Balance of
the Class M-2 Certificates has been reduced to zero;
(iv) Fourth, to the holders of the Class M-3 Certificates, the Class M-3
Principal Distribution Amount, until the Certificate Principal Balance of
the Class M-3 Certificates has been reduced to zero; and
(v) Fifth, to the holders of the Class O Certificates, any remainder.
The allocation of principal with respect to the Class A-1 Certificates on each Distribution
Date prior to the Crossover Date or on which a Trigger Event has occurred will have the
effect of accelerating the amortization of the Class A-1 Certificates while, in the absence
of realized losses, increasing the relative proportion of the Trust's assets represented by
the Class M Certificates. Increasing the relative proportion of the Trust's assets in the
Class M Certificates relative to that of the Class A-1 Certificates is intended to preserve
the availability of the subordination provided by the Class M Certificates.

all partial and full principal prepayments of the mortgage loans applied by the Servicer
during such prepayment period, (iii) the principal portion of all related net
liquidation proceeds and insurance proceeds received during such prepayment period, (iv)
that portion of the purchase price, representing principal of any repurchased mortgage
loan, deposited to the collection account during such prepayment period, (v) the
principal portion of any related substitution adjustments deposited in the collection
account during such prepayment period, (vi) in the case of the Distribution Date
immediately following the end of the funding period, any amount remaining in the
pre-funding account and not used by the Trustee to purchase subsequent mortgage loans
and (vii) on the Distribution Date on which the Trust is to be terminated that portion
of the termination price relating to principal.
CROSSOVER DATE: The Crossover Date means the later to occur of (x) the Distribution Date occurring in
the 37th period and (y) the first Distribution Date on which the Credit Enhancement
Percentage for the Class A certificates (calculated for this purpose only after taking into
account distributions of principal on the mortgage but prior to distribution of the
Principal Distribution Amount to the Certificates) is greater than or equal to 12%.
TRIGGER EVENT: A Trigger Event is in effect with respect to any Distribution Date if the three-month
rolling average of mortgage loans delinquent 60 days or more exceeds 12% of the remaining
pool balance.
CREDIT ENHANCEMENT: The credit enhancement is provided by subordinated classes, overcollateralization, and
Mortgage Insurance.
SUBORDINATION
The rights of the holders of the Class M Certificates to receive distributions will be
subordinated, to the extent described herein, to the rights of the holders of the Class A-1
Certificates.
In addition, the rights of the holders of Class M Certificates with higher numerical class
designations will be subordinated to the rights of holders of Mezzanine Certificates with
lower numerical class designations.
Subordination is intended to enhance the likelihood of regular distributions on the more
senior Certificates and to afford those Certificates protection against losses.
OVERCOLLATERALIZATION
The Trust will have an initial level of Overcollateralization Amount of approximately 1.6%.
The Overcollateralization is available for the benefit of all classes of Certificates.

MORTGAGE INSURANCE
NovaStar has acquired on behalf of the Trust loan-level mortgage insurance policies for
approximately 98.44% of the mortgage loans with an LTV in excess of 50%. Mortgage loans with
an aggregate balance of $2,251,268.41 have an LTV less than or equal to 50% and are thus not
insured by the mortgage insurance policies. The terms and conditions of the mortgage
insurance policies are further discussed below.
ALLOCATION OF LOSSES: Any realized losses on the mortgage loans will be allocated first to the
Overcollateralization Amount, which is represented by the Class O Certificates, second, to
the Class M-3 Certificates, third, to the Class M-2 Certificates, and fourth, to the Class
M-1 Certificates.
The Pooling and Servicing Agreement does not permit the allocation of realized losses to the
Class A-1, Class AIO, or Class P Certificates. Investors in the Class A-1 Certificates
should note that although realized losses cannot be allocated to the Class A-1 Certificates,
under certain loss scenarios there will not be enough principal and interest on the mortgage
loans to pay TO the Class A-1 Certificates all interest and principal amounts to which they
are then entitled.
Once realized losses have been allocated to the Mezzanine Certificates, such amounts with
respect to such Certificates will no longer accrue interest nor will such amounts thereafter
be reinstated.
Any allocation of a realized loss to a class of Certificates will be made by reducing that
CLASS OF CertificateS' principal balance by the amount allocated to that class as of the
Distribution Date in the month following the calendar month in which the realized loss was
incurred.
MORTGAGE INSURANCE
POLICIES: Approximately 96.71% of the mortgage loans are covered by mortgage insurance policies
primarily from PMI Mortgage Insurance Co. with a smaller number insured by Radian Guaranty,
Inc. (the "MI Insurers"). The remainder of the initial mortgage loans will not be covered by
a mortgage insurance policy. Each mortgage insurance policy insures losses on the Principal
Balance of each such mortgage loan in an amount generally equal to, at the option of the MI
InsurerS, either
o The sum of (i) the Principal Balance of the mortgage loan, (ii) unpaid accumulated
interest due on the mortgage loan at the mortgage rate (for a maximum period of two
years) and (iii) the amount of certain advances (such as hazard insurance, taxes,
maintenance expenses and foreclosure costs) made by the Servicer, reduced by certain
mitigating amounts collected with respect thereto (collectively, the "Loss Amount"),
in which case the MI Insurer would take title to the mortgaged property, or
o An amount equal to the product of (i) the Loss Amount and (ii) the percentage of
coverage (the "Coverage Percentage") specified in the mortgage insurance policy, in
which case the issuer would retain title to (and the proceeds obtained in a
foreclosure and sale of) the mortgaged property.

NovaStar Home Equity Loan Asset Backed Certificates, Series 2000-1 Page 13
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The minimum Coverage Percentage specified in each mortgage insurance policy will be
different depending upon the original Loan-to-Value Ratio of the related mortgage loan
(mortgage loans with higher Loan-to-Value Ratios will generally have a higher Coverage
Percentage and mortgage loans with lower Loan-to-Value Ratios will generally have a lower
Coverage Percentage). Each mortgage insurance policy will remain in place for the life of
the related mortgage loan.
Claim payments, if any, under a mortgage insurance policy will be made to the Servicer,
deposited in the Collection Account and treated in the same manner as a prepayment of the
related mortgage loan. Premiums payable on the mortgage insurance policies (the "MI
Premiums") will be paid monthly by the Servicer with funds withdrawn from the Collection
Account with respect to the related mortgage loans.
CONVERSION FEATURE OF
ADJUSTABLE-RATE LOANS: 40.09% of the mortgage loans are, at the borrower's option, subject to conversion during
a certain period into fixed-rate loans at a rate not to exceed 600 basis points over the
FNMA rate for thirty-year fixed-rate loans only if certain conditions are met, for
example, (a) the borrower has made timely payments on the loan during the twelve months
immediately preceding the conversion date; (b) the borrower occupies the property; (c)
the value of the property has not declined since the date of the original loan; and (d)
the borrower meets the Servicer's property and credit standards.
REMOVAL OF CONVERTED LOANS PURSUANT
TO THE CONVERSION FEATURE:
In the event of a conversion of a mortgage loan from an adjustable-rate to a fixed-rate,
NovaStar Capital, Inc., an affiliate of the Seller and Servicer, will be obligated to
purchase the mortgage loan from the pool at the outstanding principal balance of the
mortgage loan. That is, the converted loans will be bought out of, and thus removed from,
the pool after the conversion, causing a prepayment of the pool. The purchase obligation of
NovaStar Capital, Inc. will be fully guaranteed by NovaStar Financial, Inc., a publicly-held
company.
