PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
(To Prospectus dated ____, 199_)

                        Morgan Stanley Capital I Inc..
                                  Depositor

              MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATES, SERIES _______


    The    Series   199_-_    Mortgage    Pass-Through   Certificates    (the
"Certificates") will consist  of ____ classes of  Certificates, designated as
the Class ( ) Certificates, Class ( ) Certificates and Class ( ) Certificates
(the Class (  ) Certificates, collectively, the  "Subordinate Certificates").
It is a condition of the issuance of  the Class ( ) Certificates that they be
rated (not lower than) "_______________" by _________________. 

    The  Certificates will represent  in the aggregate  the entire beneficial
interest in  a trust  fund (the  "Trust Fund")  to be  established by  Morgan
Stanley  Capital I  Inc. (the  "Depositor").   The  Trust  Fund will  consist
primarily of  (a pool (the  "Mortgage Pool") of (conventional),  (fixed rate)
(adjustable rate) mortgage loans, with terms to maturity of not more than ___
years (the "Mortgage Loans"), secured by first (and/or junior)  liens on one-
to  four-family residential  properties,) (mortgage  participations, mortgage
pass-through  certificates, mortgage-backed  securities evidencing  interests
therein or secured thereby (the "MBS"),) (and) (certain direct obligations of
the  United  States,  agencies  thereof  or  agencies  created  thereby  (the
"Government Securities")).  The Mortgage Loans were originated or acquired by
___________ (the  "Mortgage Asset Seller") and will  be sold to the Depositor
on or prior to the date of initial issuance of the Certificates.

    The Class  ( ) Certificates will  evidence approximately an  initial ___%
undivided interest in the Trust Fund and the Subordinate Certificates, in the
aggregate, will evidence  approximately an initial ___% undivided interest in
the Trust Fund.  Only the Class ( ) Certificates are being offered hereby.

    INVESTORS SHOULD CONSIDER,  AMONG OTHER THINGS,  CERTAIN RISKS SET  FORTH
UNDER THE CAPTION "RISK FACTORS" HEREIN AND IN THE PROSPECTUS.

    (The MBS will (consist of) (include) the following series and classes  of
securities:  (identify title(s) and  class(es) of MBS)(,  including (title(s)
and  class(es)  of   MBS).)    (The  (title(s)  and  class(es)  of  MBS)  are
(subordinate) (interest-only) securities.)  (See "Summary--The MBS."))

    (The yield  to  investors in  the  (interest-only) Certificates  will  be
(extremely) sensitive to the rate and timing of principal payments (including
prepayments,  repurchases, defaults and  liquidations) in the  Mortgage Loans
which may fluctuate significantly  over time.  An  (extremely) rapid rate  of
principal  payments on  the Mortgage  Loans could  result in  the failure  of
investors  in the  (interest-only)  Certificates  to  recover  their  initial
investments.)

    (As  more  fully  described  herein,  each  Mortgage  Loan  provides  for
periodic  adjustments (which may  occur monthly, quarterly,  semi-annually or
annually) of the mortgage interest rate (the "Mortgage Rate") thereon and the
monthly  payment  due  thereon,  in  each case  subject  to  the  limitations
described herein.   Accordingly, a significant increase in  the Mortgage Rate
and the  amount of the scheduled  monthly payment due  thereafter may result,
which  may  increase the  likelihood of  default  on and  prepayment  of such
Mortgage Loan.  In most cases,  because the Mortgage Rate on a Mortgage  Loan
will be subject to adjustment monthly, while the  monthly payment due thereon
will  be  subject  to  adjustment  annually,  in  each  case  subject to  the
limitations described  herein, and  because the application  of payment  caps
limits adjustments  to the  monthly payments on  certain Mortgage  Loans, the
Mortgage Loans (and  consequently the Class ( ) Certificates)  may be subject
to accelerated, reduced or negative amortization.  

                           -----------------------

                             Morgan Stanley & Co.
                                 Incorporated

- -----------, 19--



Certain of  the Mortgage Loans  continue to be  in an initial  fixed interest
rate period and have not experienced the first adjustment to their respective
Mortgage Rates.)   The characteristics of  the Mortgage Loans  are more fully
described herein under "Description of the Mortgage Pool."

    Distributions on the Class (  ) Certificates will be made, to  the extent
of available  funds, on the __th day of each (month) (__) or, if any such day
is not  a business  day, on the  next succeeding  business day,  beginning in
__________ (each, a  "Distribution Date").  (As more  fully described herein,
distributions allocable to interest, if any, on the Class ( ) Certificates on
each Distribution  Date will  be based on  the (applicable)  (then-applicable
variable)  pass-through  rate  (the "Pass-Through  Rate")  and  the aggregate
(principal  balance  (the  "Certificate  Balance"))  (notional  balance  (the
"Notional  Balance")) of such  class (or each  component thereof) outstanding
immediately  prior  to  such  Distribution  Date.    (The  Pass-Through  Rate
applicable to  the Class (  ) Certificates from  time to time will  equal the
(sum of __% and the Index (as defined herein) subject to certain limitations)
(weighted average of  the Class ( )  Remittance Rates (as defined  herein) on
the Mortgage Loans.  The Pass-Through Rate for the Class ( )  Certificates on
the first Distribution Date  will be _% per  annum and is expected to  change
thereafter (because the weighted average of the Class ( ) Remittance Rates is
expected  to change  for succeeding  Distribution Dates.)   Distributions  in
respect of  principal, if any, of the Class (  ) Certificates will be made as
described herein  under "Description of the Certificates  -- Distributions --
Priority" and "--Calculations of Principal".)

    (_______________ will act  as master servicer of the Mortgage  Loans (the
"Master Servicer").  The obligations  of the Master Servicer with respect  to
the Certificates will be limited to its contractual servicing obligations and
the   obligation  under  certain  circumstances   to  make  Advances  to  the
Certificateholders.  If the Master Servicer fails to make any such Advance or
otherwise fails  to perform  its servicing obligations,  the Trustee  will be
obligated to assume  such servicing obligations and  to make such Advance  to
the  extent  described herein.    See  "Description  of the  Certificates  --
Advances" herein.  (The only) obligation of the Depositor with respect to the
Certificates  will  be to  obtain  from  the  Mortgage Asset  Seller  certain
representations  and warranties  with respect  to the  Mortgage Loans  and to
assign  to  the Trustee  the  obligation  of  the  Mortgage Asset  Seller  to
repurchase or substitute  for any Mortgage Loan  as to which there  exists an
uncured material breach of any such representation or warranty.)


                            ----------------------

PROCEEDS OF THE ASSETS IN THE TRUST  FUND ARE THE SOLE SOURCE OF PAYMENTS  ON
THE CLASS ( )  CERTIFICATES.  THE CLASS ( ) CERTIFICATES  DO NOT REPRESENT AN
INTEREST IN OR OBLIGATION OF THE DEPOSITOR, THE MASTER  SERVICER, THE TRUSTEE
OR ANY OF  THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES.   NEITHER THE CLASS (  ) CERTIFICATES
NOR THE MORTGAGE LOANS ARE  INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY ANY  GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY
OR  INSTRUMENTALITY OR BY THE DEPOSITOR, THE  MASTER SERVICER, THE TRUSTEE OR
ANY OF THEIR AFFILIATES.

                          -------------------------

THESE SECURITIES HAVE  NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES AND
EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION NOR HAS THE SECURITIES
AND EXCHANGE  COMMISSION OR ANY  STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED  UPON THE
ACCURACY OR  ADEQUACY OF THIS  PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT OR THE  PROSPECTUS.  ANY
REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

(THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF  THE STATE OF NEW YORK HAS NOT PASSED ON OR ENDORSED
THE  MERITS  OF  THIS  OFFERING.   ANY  REPRESENTATION  TO  THE  CONTRARY  IS
UNLAWFUL.)

                         ---------------------------


    An election will (not) be made to treat the Trust  Fund as a "real estate
mortgage investment  conduit" (a  "REMIC") for federal  income tax  purposes.
(The  Class (  )  Certificates  will constitute  "regular  interests" in  the
REMIC.)   See "Certain  Federal Income  Tax Consequences"  herein and in  the
Prospectus.

    The yield to maturity  on the Class ( )  Certificates will depend on  the
rate and  timing of principal  payments (including prepayments,  defaults and
liquidations) on  the Mortgage  Loans.  See  "Risk Factors" herein  and "Risk
Factors  -- Average  Life  of Certificates;  Prepayments; Yields"  and "Yield
Considerations" in  the Prospectus.   As further described herein,  losses on
the Mortgage Loans will be allocated to the Subordinate Certificates prior to
allocation  to  the  Class  (  )  Certificates.    See  "Description  of  the
Certificates -- Distributions -- Priority" herein.

     There is currently  no secondary market for the Class  ( ) Certificates.
Morgan Stanley  & Co. Incorporated  (the "Underwriter") currently  expects to
make a secondary market in the Class  ( ) Certificates, but has no obligation
to  do so.  There can be no assurance  that such a market will develop or, if
it does develop, that it will continue.  See "Plan of Distribution" herein.

     The  Class  ( )  Certificates offered  hereby will  be purchased  by the
Underwriter from  the Depositor and  will be offered by  the Underwriter from
time to time to the public in negotiated transactions or otherwise at varying
prices to be determined at the time  of sale.  Proceeds to the Depositor from
the sale of the Class ( ) Certificates will be  ___% of the initial aggregate
principal balance  thereof as  of ____________ 1,  199_ (the  "Cut-off Date")
plus accrued  interest  from  the  Cut-off Date,  before  deducting  expenses
payable by the Depositor.

     The  Class ( ) Certificates are offered  subject to prior sale, when, as
and if accepted by the Underwriter, and subject to approval of  certain legal
matters by __________,  counsel for  the Underwriter.   It  is expected  that
delivery  of the Class ( )  Certificates (in book-entry form) (in registered,
certified form)  will be  made on or  about ___________,  199_, (through  the
facilities  of  The  Depository  Trust   Company)  (at  the  offices  of  the
Underwriter,  New York,  New  York) against  payment therefor  in immediately
available funds.

(Special Prepayment
  Considerations             The rate of principal  payments on the Class (  
                             )  Certificates collectively will  depend on the
                             rate   and   timing    of   principal   payments
                             (including     prepayments,     defaults     and
                             liquidations) on  the Mortgage Loans.  As is the
                             case with mortgage-backed securities  generally,
                             the Class  (     ) Certificates  are subject  to
                             substantial  inherent   cash-flow  uncertainties
                             because  the Mortgage  Loans may  be prepaid  at
                             any time.   Generally, when prevailing  interest
                             rates  are   increasing,  prepayment  rates   on
                             mortgage loans tend  to decrease, resulting in a
                             reduced return  of principal  to investors  at a
                             time   when   reinvestment    at   such   higher
                             prevailing    rates    would    be    desirable.
                             Conversely, when  prevailing interest rates  are
                             declining,  prepayment rates  on mortgage  loans
                             tend to increase, resulting in a  greater return
                             of  principal  to   investors  at  a  time  when
                             reinvestment  at comparable  yields  may not  be
                             possible.

                         (The multiple  class structure  of the Class  (    )
                         Certificates   results   in    the   allocation   of
                         prepayments among certain classes as  follows (to be
                         included as appropriate):

                         priorities  for payment  of  principal as  described
                         herein.   Distributions on classes having an earlier
                         priority of payment will be  immediately affected by
                         the  prepayment speed of the Mortgage Loans early in

                         classes with a later priority of payment will not be
                         directly affected by the prepayment speed until such
                         time as principal is  distributable on such classes;
                         however,  the timing  of  commencement of  principal
                         distributions and the weighted average lives of such
                         classes  will be  affected by  the  prepayment speed
                         experienced both  before and after  the commencement
                         of principal distributions on such classes.)

  Considerations             The  yield to maturity  on each respective class

                             (   )  Certificates will  be adversely  affected
                             by   any   allocation  thereto   of   prepayment

                             which   are   expected   to   result   from  the

                             prepayment   (rather   than   a   full   month's
                             interest)  in  connection  with  prepayments  in
                             full,  and  the  lack  of  any  distribution  of

                             prepayments.

                         In  general,  if  a  Class  (     )  Certificate  is
                         purchased at  a premium and  principal distributions
                         thereon occur at  a rate faster than  anticipated at
                         the time of purchase, the investor's actual yield to
                         maturity will be lower than that assumed at the time
                         of  purchase.    Conversely,  if  a  Class  (      )
                         Certificate is purchased at a discount and principal
                         distributions thereon  occur at a  rate slower  than


                         that assumed at the time of purchase, the investor's
                         actual yield  to maturity  will be  lower than  that
                         originally anticipated.

                         The Class  (   ) Certificates  were structured based
                         on a number  of assumptions, including a  prepayment

                                 RISK FACTORS

     (Description will depend on the particulars of the Mortgage Assets)

    Special  Prepayment  Considerations.   The rate  and timing  of principal
payments on the  Class ( ) Certificates  will depend, among other  things, on
the rate and  timing of principal payments (including  prepayments, defaults,
liquidations  and   purchases  of  Mortgage   Assets  due  to  a   breach  of
representation and  warranty)  on the  Mortgage Assets.   The  rate at  which
principal prepayments  occur on  the  Mortgage Loans  will be  affected by  a
variety of factors, including, without  limitation, the terms of the Mortgage
Loans, the level  of prevailing interest rates, the  availability of mortgage
credit and economic,  demographic, geographic, tax, legal  and other factors.
In general, however,  if prevailing interest  rates fall significantly  below
the Mortgage Rates on the Mortgage  Loans, such Mortgage Loans are likely  to
be  the subject  of higher  principal  prepayments than  if prevailing  rates
remain at  or above the  rates borne by  such Mortgage Loans.   (The rate  of
principal payments on  the Class ( ) Certificates will correspond to the rate
of principal payments on  the Mortgage Loans and is likely  to be affected by
the Lock-out  Periods and  Prepayment  Premium Provisions  applicable to  the
Mortgage  Loans and by  the extent to  which the  Master Servicer is  able to
enforce  such  provisions.   Mortgage  loans  with  a  lock-out period  or  a
prepayment premium provision, to  the extent enforceable, generally  would be
expected to experience  a lower rate of principal  prepayments than otherwise
identical  mortgage  loans  without such  provisions,  with  shorter lock-out
periods  or  with  lower  prepayment  premiums.)    (As  is   the  case  with
mortgage-backed securities generally, the Class  ( ) Certificates are subject
to substantial inherent cashflow uncertainties because the Mortgage Loans may
be prepaid at any time.)

    (As described  herein, prior to  reduction of  the Class  ( ) Balance  to
zero,  all  principal  prepayments on  and  other  unscheduled recoveries  of
principal  of  the  Mortgage Loans  will  be  allocated  to  the  Class  (  )
Certificates.    To the  extent  that  no  prepayments or  other  unscheduled
recoveries of principal  are distributed on the Subordinate Certificates, the
subordination  afforded  the  Class  (  )  Certificates  by  the  Subordinate
Certificates,  in the  absence of  offsetting  losses on  the Mortgage  Loans
allocated thereto, will be increased.)

     See "Description of  the Certificates -- Distributions --  Priority" and
"Certain Yield,  Prepayment and  Maturity Considerations"  herein and  "Yield
Considerations" in the Prospectus.

    Special Yield Considerations.   The yield  to maturity on  the Class (  )
Certificates will  depend, among  other things,  on the  rate  and timing  of
principal  payments   (including  prepayments,  defaults,   liquidations  and
purchases of Mortgage Loans  due to a breach of representation  and warranty)
on the  Mortgage Loans and  the allocation thereof to  reduce the Certificate
Balance of such class.   (The yield to maturity on the Class ( ) Certificates
will  also depend  on changes  in the  Index and  the effect  of any  maximum
lifetime  Mortgage Rate,  minimum  lifetime Mortgage  Rate,  Payment Cap  and
Periodic Rate Cap applicable to each Mortgage Loan.)  The yield  to investors
on the Class  ( ) Certificates will  be adversely affected by  any allocation
thereto of  Prepayment Interest Shortfalls  on the Mortgage Loans,  which are
expected to  result from  the distribution of  interest only  to the  date of
prepayment  (rather  than   a  full  month's  interest)  in  connection  with
prepayments  in full,  and the lack  of any  distribution of interest  on the
amount of any partial prepayments.  Neither the Certificates not the Mortgage
Loans are guaranteed by any governmental entity or private insurer.

    In general,  if a  Certificate is purchased  at a  premium and  principal
distributions thereon occur at a rate faster  than anticipated at the time of
purchase, the  investor's actual yield  to maturity  will be lower  than that
assumed at  the time of purchase.  Conversely,  if a Certificate is purchased
at a discount and principal distributions thereon occur at a rate slower than
that assumed at the time of purchase, the investor's actual yield to maturity
will be lower than assumed at the time of purchase.

    See  "Certain  Federal   Income  Tax  Consequences"  herein  and  in  the
Prospectus and "Yield Considerations" in the Prospectus.

    (Risks Associated  with  Certain  of  the Mortgage  Loans  and  Mortgaged
Properties.)  (Description of type of property.)

     (Because  the Mortgage  Loans are  adjustable rate  mortgage loans,  the
Mortgage Rates  and Monthly Payments will increase  in a rising interest rate
environment,  perhaps without  a corresponding  increase  in the  mortgagors'
income.   In such  event, the  related mortgagor's  ability  to make  Monthly
Payments  may be  impaired, and  a mortgagor  payment default  would be  more
likely to occur.)

    Effect of Mortgagor  Defaults.  The aggregate amount of  distributions on
the  Class  (  )  Certificates,  the  yield to  maturity  of  the  Class  ( )
Certificates, the rate of  principal payments on the  Class ( )  Certificates
and the weighted average life of the  Class ( ) Certificates will be affected
by the rate  and the  timing of  delinquencies and defaults  on the  Mortgage
Loans.  If a  purchaser of a Class ( ) Certificate calculates its anticipated
yield based  on  an assumed  rate of  default  and amount  of  losses on  the
Mortgage Loans  that is  lower than  the default  rate and  amount of  losses
actually experienced and  such additional losses are allocable  to such class
of Certificates, such purchaser's actual yield to maturity will be lower than
that so calculated  and could, under certain extreme  scenarios, be negative.
The timing of  any loss on  a liquidated Mortgage Loan  will also affect  the
actual yield to maturity  of the Class ( ) Certificates to which a portion of
such loss  is allocable, even if the rate  of defaults and severity of losses
are consistent  with an investor's expectations.   In general, the  earlier a
loss  borne  by an  investor  occurs,  the  greater  is the  effect  on  such
investor's yield to maturity.

    As and  to  the extent  described  herein, the  Master  Servicer will  be
entitled  to receive  interest  on  unreimbursed  Advances  and  unreimbursed
servicing expenses that  (i) are  recovered out  of amounts  received on  the
Mortgage Loan as to which such Advances were made or such  servicing expenses
were  incurred,  which amounts  are  in  the  form of  liquidation  proceeds,
insurance proceeds,  condemnation proceeds or amounts paid in connection with
the  purchase  of such  Mortgage  Loan out  of  the  Trust Fund  or  (ii) are
determined to  be nonrecoverable  Advances.  The  Master Servicer's  right to
receive   such  payments   of   interest   are  prior   to   the  rights   of
Certificateholders  to  receive   distributions  on  the  Certificates   and,
consequently, may  result  in  losses  being  allocated  to  the  Class  (  )
Certificates that  would not  otherwise have resulted  absent the  accrual of
such interest.

    Even if  losses on the Mortgage Loans are not borne by an investor in the
Class ( ) Certificates, such losses may affect the weighted average  life and
yield to  maturity of such investor's  Certificates.  Losses  on the Mortgage
Loans, to the extent not allocated to the Class ( )  Certificates, may result
in a higher percentage ownership interest evidenced by such Certificates than
would otherwise have resulted absent such loss.  The consequent effect on the
weighted  average life and  yield to maturity  of the Class  ( ) Certificates
will depend upon the characteristics of the remaining Mortgage Loans.

    Regardless  of  whether  losses  ultimately   result,  delinquencies  and
defaults  on  the Mortgage  Loans  may  significantly  delay the  receipt  of
payments  by the  holder of  a  Class (  ) Certificate,  to  the extent  that
Advances or the subordination of another class of Certificates does not fully
offset  the  effects  of any  such  delinquency  or default.    The Scheduled
Principal  Distribution Amount  and  the  Unscheduled Principal  Distribution
Amount generally consist of, as more fully described herein, principal of the
Mortgage Loans  actually collected or advanced.   The Master Servicer has the
ability to extend  and modify Mortgage  Loans that  are in default  or as  to
which a payment default is imminent, including the ability to extend the date
on  which a Balloon  Payment is due  by up to  __ months,  subject to certain
conditions  described in  the Pooling  and Servicing  Agreement.   The Master
Servicer's obligation to make Advances in respect of a Mortgage Loan  that is
delinquent  as to  its Balloon  Payment  is limited,  however, to  the extent
described under  "Description of the  Certificates -- Advances".   Until such
time  as any Mortgage  Loan delinquent in  respect of its  Balloon Payment is
liquidated, the entitlement of the holders of  Class ( ) Certificates on each
Distribution Date  in  respect of  principal of  such Mortgage  Loan will  be
limited to the Class ( ) Scheduled Principal Distribution Percentage  of that
portion of the  Available Distribution Amount  that represents the  principal
portion of (i)  any payment made by the related mortgagor under a forbearance
arrangement  or  (ii)  any  related  Advance made  by  the  Master  Servicer.
Consequently, any delay in the receipt of  a Balloon Payment that is payable,
in whole or  in part, to holders  of Class (  ) Certificates will extend  the
weighted average life of the Class ( ) Certificates.

    As  described under  "Description of  the Certificates  -- Distributions"
herein, if  the  portion of  Available Distribution  Amount distributable  in
respect of interest on the Class ( ) Certificates on any Distribution Date is
less than the Distributable Certificate Interest then payable for such class,
the  shortfall will be distributable to holders of such class of Certificates
on subsequent Distribution Dates, to the extent of available funds.  Any such
shortfall will  not bear  interest and will  therefore negatively  affect the
yield  to  maturity of  such  class of  Certificates  for so  long  as  it is
outstanding.

Loans are acquired from the Resolution Trust Corporation:)

    (Troubled Originators.   The Mortgage Loans were originated  or purchased
by  the  (Originating Institutions),  each  of which  is  subject  to an  RTC
receivership.  It is possible  that the financial difficulties experienced by
the (Originating Institutions) may have  adversely affected either or both of
(i) the  standards and procedures pursuant  to which the Mortgage  Loans were
originated  or purchased  by  such (Originating  Institutions)  and (ii)  the
manner in which such Mortgage Loans have been serviced prior to assumption of
servicing responsibilities by  the Master Servicer.  The  Mortgage Loans will
be acquired by  the Depositor on or before the Closing Date from the Mortgage
Asset Seller, which acquired the Mortgage Loans from the RTC in  its capacity
as receiver  of each  of the  associations pursuant  to a  certain commercial
mortgage loan sale agreement, dated ______, 199_ (as  amended, the "Loan Sale
Agreement").  Pursuant to the Loan Sale Agreement, the RTC as receiver of the
(Originating Institutions), has made  certain representations and  warranties
regarding  the Mortgage  Loans and  is  obligated to  cure  such breaches  or
repurchase those  Mortgage  Loans as  to  which there  is  a breach  of  such
representations and  warranties.  The  RTC repurchase price for  the Mortgage
Loans is  par plus accrued  interest at the related  Mortgage Rate(,except in
the case of --------- Mortgage Loans as to which a repurchase for a breach of
the representation  and warranty  relating to  certain environmental  matters
would  be accomplished at a price that  initially is discounted but increases
to par over approximately __ years).  See "Description of the Mortgage Pool -

The RTC, acting in its corporate capacity, has guaranteed such obligations of


the RTC, acting in its capacity as receiver.  The agreement pursuant to which
such  guarantee  was  made by  the  RTC  is hereinafter  referred  to  as the
"Guarantee Agreement".)

Supplement  with respect  to the  Mortgage  Loans is  derived from  books and
records of the (Originating Institutions), as well as a limited review of the
credit  and  legal  files  relating  to the  Mortgage  Loans.    Accordingly,
available information  does not permit  the Depositor to determine  fully the

                   DESCRIPTION OF THE (MORTGAGE POOL) (MBS)


GENERAL

    The  Trust Fund  will  consist primarily  of (___  (conventional), (fixed
interest)  (adjustable  interest)  rate  Mortgage  Loans  with  an  aggregate
principal  balance  as of  the  Cut-off  Date,  after deducting  payments  of
principal  due on  such date,  of  $____________,) (mortgage  participations,
mortgage  pass-through  certificates, mortgage-backed  securities  evidencing
interests therein  or secured  thereby  (the "MBS"),)  (and) (certain  direct
obligations  of  the  United States,  agencies  thereof  or  agencies created
thereby (the "Government Securities")).  Each Mortgage Loan is evidenced by a
promissory note (a "Mortgage Note") and secured  by a mortgage, deed of trust
or other similar security instrument (a  "Mortgage" creating a first fee lien
on a one- to four- family residential property (a "Mortgaged Property").  The
Mortgaged  Properties  consist   of  (description  of  one-   to  four-family
residential properties).  (Because no evaluation of any mortgagor's financial
condition has been  conducted, investors should consider all  of the Mortgage
Loans to be  non-recourse loans so that,  in the event of  mortgagor default,
recourse may be had only against the specific property and such limited other
assets as  have been pledged to  secure a Mortgage Loan, and  not against the
mortgagor's other assets.)   All percentages of the  Mortgage Loans described
herein  are  approximate  percentages  (except  as  otherwise  indicated)  by
aggregate principal balance as of the Cut-off Date.)

    (The  Mortgage Loans  to be  included in  the Trust  Fund will  have been
originated or acquired by ________________ (the "Mortgage  Asset Seller") and
will comply with  the underwriting criteria described herein.   The Depositor
will purchase the  Mortgage Loans to be  included in the Mortgage Pool  on or
before the Closing Date from the Mortgage Asset Seller pursuant to a seller's
agreement (the "Seller's Agreement"), to be dated as of   ____________,  199_
between  the Mortgage Asset  Seller and  the Depositor.   The  Depositor will
cause  the  Mortgage   Loans  in  the   Mortgage  Pool  to  be   assigned  to
_______________, as Trustee, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
_____________, in its capacity as  Master Servicer, will service the Mortgage
Loans pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

    Under the Seller's  Agreement, _______________, as seller of the Mortgage
Loans to  the Depositor,  will make  certain representations,  warranties and
covenants to the Depositor relating to, among other things, the due execution
and  enforceability of the Seller's Agreement  and certain characteristics of
the Mortgage Loans, and will be obligated to repurchase or substitute for any
Mortgage Loans as to which there exists deficient documentation or an uncured
material breach of any such representation, warranty or covenant.   Under the


Pooling  and Servicing  Agreement the  Depositor will  assign all  its right,
title   and  interest  in  such  representations,  warranties  and  covenants
(including ____________________'s  repurchase or substitution  obligation) to
the Trustee for the Trust Fund.  The Depositor will make (no) representations
or warranties with respect to the Mortgage  Loans and will have no obligation
to repurchase or substitute  for Mortgage Loans with deficient  documentation
(or which are otherwise defective).  _____________, as seller of the Mortgage
Loans to the Depositor,  is selling such Mortgage Loans without recourse and,
accordingly, in such  capacity, will have no obligations with  respect to the
certificates  other  than  pursuant  to  such  representations,   warranties,
covenants and repurchase obligations.   See "Description of the Agreements --
Representations and Warranties; Repurchases" in the Prospectus.)

(THE MBS

    (Title and issuer of underlying securities,  amount deposited or pledged,
amount  originally   issued,  maturity  date,   interest  rate,   (redemption
provisions), together with description of other material terms.)

    (Description of principal and interest distributions on the MBS.)

    (Description   of  advances  by  the   servicer  of  the  mortgage  loans
underlying the MBS.)

    (Description  of  effect on  the  MBS  of  allocation of  losses  on  the
underlying mortgage loans.)

    As to each series of MBS  included in the Trust Fund, the various classes
of certificates  from such series ((including  classes not in  the Trust Fund
but from the same  series as classes that are in the  Trust Fund) are listed,
together  with the related  pass-through rates and  certain other information
applicable thereto, in Annex B hereto.)

(CONVERTIBLE MORTGAGE LOANS

    ____% of the Mortgage Loans ("Convertible Mortgage Loans") provide  that,
at the option of the related Mortgagors, the adjustable interest rate on such
Mortgage Loans may be converted to a fixed interest rate.  The first month in
which any  of the Mortgage  Loans may convert  is ____________, and  the last
month in which any of the Mortgage Loans may convert is _____________.   Upon
conversion, the  Mortgage Rate  will be  converted to  a fixed interest  rate
determined in accordance  with the formula set forth in  the related Mortgage
Note which formula is intended to result in a Mortgage Rate which is not less
than  the then  current market  interest  rate (subject  to applicable  usury
laws).  After such conversion, the monthly payments of principal and interest
will be adjusted to provide for full amortization over the remaining  term to
scheduled maturity.   Upon notification from a Mortgagor  of such Mortgagor's
intent to convert from an adjustable  interest rate to a fixed interest  rate
and prior to the conversion of any such Mortgage Loan (a "Converting Mortgage
Loan"), the  related Warrantying  Party will be  obligated to   purchase  the
Converting  Mortgage Loan  at  a  price equal  to  the outstanding  principal
balance thereof  plus accrued interest  thereon net of any  subservicing fees
(the "Conversion Price").   In the event of a failure  by a Warrantying Party
to  purchase a converting  Mortgage Loan, the Master  Servicer is required to
use its best efforts to purchase such Mortgage Loan following  its conversion
(a "Converted Mortgage Loan") during  the one-month period following the date
of conversion at the Conversion Price.

    In  the  event that  the related  Warrantying Party  fails to  purchase a
Converting  Mortgage  Loan  and  the  Master Servicer  does  not  purchase  a
Converted Mortgage Loan, neither the Depositor nor any of its affiliates  nor
any other  entity is obligated to purchase or arrange for the purchase of any
Converted Mortgage Loan.  Any such Converted Mortgage Loan will remain in the
Mortgage Pool  as a fixed-rate Mortgage Loan and  will result in the Mortgage
Pool's having  both  fixed rate  and  adjustable rate  Mortgage Loans.    See
"Certain Yield and Prepayment Considerations" herein.


    Following  the  purchase of  any  Converted  Mortgage  Loan as  described
above, the  purchaser will  be entitled  to receive  an  assignment from  the
Trustee of  such Mortgage  Loan and  the purchaser  will thereafter  own such
Mortgage  Loan  free  of  any  further  obligation  to  the  Trustee  or  the
Certificateholders with respect thereto.)

(THE INDEX

    As  of  any  Payment  Adjustment  Date,   the  Index  applicable  to  the
determination of the related Mortgage Rate will  be a per annum rate equal to
______________, as most recently available as of  the date ---- days prior to
the Payment Adjustment Date  (the "Index").  Such average  yields reflect the
yields for the week prior to that week  in which the information is reported.
In the  event that  the Index  is no  longer available,  an index  reasonably
acceptable to the  Trustee that is  based on  comparable information will  be
selected by the Master Servicer.

    The Index  is  currently  calculated  based on  information  reported  in
___________.   Listed below are the weekly  average yields on actively traded
______________ as reported  in ____________ on the date that  would have been
applicable to  mortgage loans having  the following adjustment dates  for the
indicated years.   Such average yields may fluctuate  significantly from week
to week as well as over longer periods and may not increase  or decrease in a
constant pattern from period to period.  The following does not purport to be
representative of future average yields.  No assurance can be given as to the
average  yields on  such _______________  on any  Payment Adjustment  Date or
during the life of any Mortgage Loan.)

CERTAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS

    (Approximately  ___% of the  Mortgage Loans have Due  Dates that occur on
the ___ day of each month; approximately ___% of the  Mortgage Loans have Due
Dates that  occur on the ___  day of each month; approximately  _____% of the
Mortgage Loans  have Due Dates that occur  on the ___ day of  each month; and
the  remainder  of  the Mortgage  Loans  have  Due Dates  that  occur  on the
fifteenth day of each month.)

    (As  of  the   Cut-off  Date,  the  Mortgage  Loans  had   the  following
characteristics: (i) Mortgage Rates ranging from _____% per annum to _______%
per annum; (ii)  a weighted average Mortgage Rate of ______% per annum; (iii)
Gross Margins  ranging from ____ basis points to  ______ basis points; (iv) a
weighted average  Gross Margin of  ____ basis points; (v)  principal balances
ranging  from $_______  to  $______;  (vi) an  average  principal balance  of

    $_________; (vii)  original terms  to scheduled maturity  ranging from
_____ months  to _________  months;  (viii)  a weighted  average  original
term  to scheduled  maturity  of  _____  months; (ix)  remaining  terms  to
scheduled maturity ranging from  ____ months to  _____ months;  (x) a weighted
average remaining term  to scheduled maturity  of ________ months; (xi)  
Cut-off Date Loan-to-Value  ("LTV") Ratios  ranging  from ______%  to  
________%; (xii)  a weighted average Cut-off Date LTV Ratio of _____%; 
(xiii) as to  the _______% of  the Mortgage  Loans to  which  such 
characteristic  applies, (A)  minimum lifetime Mortgage Rates  ranging 
from ____% per  annum to ______ %  per annum and  (B) a weighted  average 
minimum lifetime  Mortgage Rate  of _______% per annum;  and  (xiv) as  
to  the__________% of  Mortgage  Loans  to which  such characteristic  
applies and  for which  it may  be currently  calculated, (A) maximum 
lifetime Mortgage  Rate ranging from _______% per  annum to ________%
per  annum and  (B)  a weighted  average maximum  lifetime  Mortgage Rate  
of _________% per annum.)

    (___%  of  the Mortgage  Loans  provide  for Balloon  Payments  on  their
respective maturity  dates.  Loans  providing for Balloon Payments  involve a
greater degree  of risk  than self-amortizing  loans.   See "Risk Factors  --
Balloon Payments" in the Prospectus.)

    (The  Mortgage Rate on  each Mortgage  Loan is  subject to  adjustment on
each Interest Rate Adjustment Date by adding  the related Gross Margin to the
value of the Index (described below)  as most recently announced a  specified
number of  days prior to such Interest Rate  Adjustment Date, subject, in the
case  of  substantially all  of the  Mortgage Loans,  to minimum  and maximum
lifetime Mortgage Rates, with ranges specified below.  The  Mortgage Rates on
the Mortgage  Loans generally are  adjusted monthly; however, certain  of the
Mortgage Loans provide for Interest  Rate Adjustment Dates to occur quarterly
(___%  of the Mortgage Loans), semi-annually (---%  of the Mortgage Loans) or
annually (____% of the Mortgage Loans).  Each of the Mortgage  Loans provided
for  an  initial  fixed  interest  rate  period;  ----------  Mortgage Loans,
representing ___%  of the  Mortgage Loans, have  not experienced  their first
Interest Rate Adjustment Dates.   The latest initial Interest Rate Adjustment
Date for any Mortgage Loan is to occur in -----------------------------------
- -----------------------------.)

    (Subject  to the Payment Caps described  below, the amount of the Monthly
Payment on each Mortgage Loan adjusts periodically on each Payment Adjustment
Date to  an amount  that would fully  amortize the  principal balance  of the
Mortgage Loan over its then  remaining amortization schedule and pay interest
at the  Mortgage Rate in  effect during the  one month period  preceding such
Payment Adjustment  Date.   Approximately __% of  the Mortgage  Loans provide
that  an  adjustment  of the  amount  of  the Monthly  Payment  on  a Payment
Adjustment Date may  not result in a  Monthly Payment that increases  by more
than ___% (nor, in some cases, decreases by more than ____%) of the amount of
the Monthly  Payment in effect  immediately prior to such  Payment Adjustment
Date  (each such  provision,  a  "Payment Cap");  however,  certain of  those
Mortgage Loans also  provide that the Payment  Cap will not apply  on certain
Payment Adjustment Dates or  if the application  thereof would result in  the
principal   balance  of  the   Mortgage  Loan  exceeding   (through  negative
amortization)  by a  specified  percentage  the  original  principal  balance
thereof.  Generally, the related Mortgage Note  provides that if, as a result
of negative  amortization, the respective  principal balance of  the Mortgage
Loan reaches an amount specified therein (which as to most Mortgage  Loans is
not  greater  than  _% of  the  Mortgage  Loan principal  balance  as  of the
origination date thereof), the amount  of the Monthly Payments due thereunder
will be increased as necessary to prevent further negative amortization.

    (Only  in  the case  of  _____%  of the  Mortgage  Loans  does a  Payment
Adjustment Date immediately follow each Interest Rate Adjustment Date.  As  a
result, and because application of Payment Caps may limit the amount by which
the Monthly  Payments due on  certain of the  Mortgage Loans may  adjust, the
amount of  a Monthly Payment may be more or less than the amount necessary to
amortize  the  Mortgage  Loan  principal  balance  over  the  then  remaining
amortization schedule at the applicable Mortgage Rate.  Accordingly, Mortgage
Loans may be subject to slower amortization (if the Monthly Payment due on  a
Due  Date is  sufficient to  pay interest  accrued to  such Due  Date  at the
applicable  Mortgage  Rate but  is  not  sufficient  to reduce  principal  in
accordance   with  the   applicable  amortization   schedule),  to   negative
amortization (if  interest accrued to  a Due Date at  the applicable Mortgage
Rate is greater than the  entire Monthly Payment due on such Due  Date) or to
accelerated amortization (if the Monthly Payment due on a Due Date is greater
than  the amount necessary  to pay interest  accrued to such Due  Date at the
applicable  Mortgage Rate  and to  reduce  principal in  accordance with  the
applicable amortization schedule).)

    (No Mortgage  Loan currently  prohibits  principal prepayments;  however,
certain  of  the  Mortgage  Loans  impose  fees   or  penalties  ("Prepayment
Premiums")  in  connection  with  full  or  partial  prepayments.    Although
Prepayment  Premiums  are  payable  to  the  Master  Servicer  as  additional
servicing  compensation, the  Master Servicer  may waive  the payment  of any
Prepayment Premium  only in  connection with a  principal prepayment  that is
proposed  to be  made during the  three month  period prior to  the scheduled
maturity  of  the related  Mortgage  Loan,  or  under certain  other  limited
circumstances.)

Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date:

     The  following table sets forth the range  of Original LTV Ratios of the
Mortgage  Loans.   An "Original  LTV  Ratio" is  a fraction,  expressed  as a
percentage, the numerator  of which  is the principal  balance of a  Mortgage
Loan  on the date  of its  origination, and the  denominator of  which is (in
general) the  lesser  of (i)  the appraised  value of  the related  Mortgaged
Property as  determined by an  appraisal thereof obtained in  connection with
the  origination of  such  Mortgage Loan  and  (ii) the  sale  price of  such
Mortgaged  Property  at  the time  of  such  origination.   There  can  be no
assurance that the value (determined through  an appraisal or otherwise) of a
Mortgaged Property  determined after origination of the related Mortgage Loan
will  be equal to  or greater than  the value thereof  (determined through an
appraisal or otherwise) obtained  in connection with  the origination.  As  a
result, there  can be  no  assurance that  the  loan-to-value ratio  for  any
Mortgage Loan  determined at any  time following origination thereof  will be
lower than the  Original LTV Ratio, notwithstanding any positive amortization
of such Mortgage Loan.

individual characteristics of the Mortgage Loans.


UNDERWRITING STANDARDS

     All  of the  Mortgage  Loans were  originated  or acquired  by  _______,
generally in accordance with the underwriting criteria described herein.

     (Description of underwriting standards.)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

     The description in  this Prospectus Supplement of the Mortgage  Pool and
the Mortgaged Properties  is based upon the  Mortgage Pool as expected  to be
constituted at the close of business on the Cut-off Date, as adjusted for the
scheduled  principal  payments due  on or  before  such date.   Prior  to the
issuance of the Class ( )  Certificates, a Mortgage Loan may be  removed from
the Mortgage Pool  as a result  of incomplete documentation or  otherwise, if
the  Depositor deems such removal necessary or appropriate and may be prepaid
at any time.  A limited number of other mortgage loans may be included in the
Mortgage Pool  prior to  the issuance of  the Class  ( )  Certificates unless
including such mortgage loans  would materially alter the  characteristics of
the  Mortgage Pool  as  described herein.   The  Depositor believes  that the
information set forth herein will be representative of the characteristics of
the Mortgage  Pool  as it  will be  constituted at  the  time the  Class (  )
Certificates are issued, although the  range of Mortgage Rates and maturities
and certain other characteristics of the  Mortgage Loans in the Mortgage Pool
may vary.

    A  Current Report  on Form  8-K  (the "Form  8-K") will  be available  to
purchasers of the Class ( ) Certificates and will be filed, together with the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, with the Securities and  Exchange Commission
within fifteen days after the initial issuance of the Class ( ) Certificates.
In the event Mortgage Loans are removed from or added to the Mortgage Pool as
set forth in  the preceding paragraph, such removal or addition will be noted
in the Form 8-K.


                       DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES

GENERAL

    The Certificates  will be  issued pursuant to  the Pooling and  Servicing
Agreement and will consist of ____ classes to  be designated as the Class ( )
Certificates, the Class ( ) Certificates, the Class ( ) Certificates  and the
Class ( ) Certificates.   The Class ( ), Class ( ) and Class ( ) Certificates
(the  "Subordinate  Certificates") will  be  subordinate  to  the Class  (  )
Certificates,  as  described  herein.   The  Certificates  represent  in  the
aggregate the entire beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund consisting
of:  (i) the  Mortgage  Loans and  all  payments under  and  proceeds of  the
Mortgage  Loans received  after the  Cut-off Date  (exclusive of  payments of
principal and interest due on or before the Cut-off Date); (ii) any Mortgaged
Property acquired on  behalf of the Trust Fund through foreclosure or deed in
lieu of foreclosure  (upon acquisition, an "REO Property");  (iii) such funds
or  assets as from time to time  are deposited in the Certificate Account and
any  account   established  in  connection  with  REO  Properties  (the  "REO
Account"); and (iv) the rights of the mortgagee under all insurance  policies
with respect  to the  Mortgage Loans.   Only the Class  ( )  Certificates are
offered hereby.

    The Class  ( )  Certificates will have  an initial (Certificate  Balance)
(Notional Balance) of $__________.  The Class ( ) Certificates represent ___%
of the aggregate  principal balance of the  Mortgage Loans as of  the Cut-off
Date.  The Class ( ) Certificates will have an initial Certificate Balance of
$__________,  representing ___%  of the  aggregate principal  balance of  the
Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.  The Class ( ) Certificates will  have
an  initial  Certificate Balance  of  $__________, representing  ___%  of the
aggregate  principal balance of  the Mortgage Loans  as of the  Cut-off Date.
The initial Certificate Balance of the Class ( ) Certificates will be (zero).
The Certificate Balance of  any class of Certificates outstanding at any time
represents  the maximum  amount which  the  holders thereof  are entitled  to
receive  as distributions allocable  to principal from  the cash  flow on the
Mortgage  Loans  and the  other assets  in  the Trust  Fund.   The respective
Certificate  Balances of the Class ( ), Class  ( ) and Class ( ) Certificates
(respectively, the "Class (  ) Balance", "Class (  ) Balance" and "Class  ( )
Balance") will in each case be (i) reduced by amounts actually distributed on
such  class  of  Certificates  that  are allocable  to  principal  and  ((ii)
increased by  amounts allocated to  such class of Certificates  in respect of
negative amortization  on the  Mortgage Loans  (Describe Notional  Balance.))
(The Certificate  Balance  of the  Class (  ) Certificates  (the  "Class (  )
Balance") will at any  time equal the aggregate  Stated Principal Balance  of
the Mortgage Loans minus the sum of the Class ( ) Balance,  Class ( ) Balance
and Class ( ) Balance.)  The Stated Principal Balance of any Mortgage Loan at
any  date of determination  will equal (a)  the Cut-off Date  Balance of such
Mortgage Loan,  plus ((b)  any negative amortization  added to  the principal
balance of such Mortgage Loan on any  Due Date after the Cut-off Date to  and
including the  Due Date  in the Due  Period for  the most  recently preceding
Distribution Date), minus  (c) the sum of  (i) the principal portion  of each
Monthly  Payment due  on such Mortgage  Loan after  the Cut-off Date,  to the
extent  received from the  mortgagor or advanced  by the Master  Servicer and
distributed to holders of the Certificates before such date of determination,
(ii) all principal prepayments and other unscheduled collections of principal
received with  respect to such  Mortgage Loan,  to the extent  distributed to
holders of the Certificates before such date of  determination, and (iii) any
reduction  in  the  outstanding  principal  balance  of  such  Mortgage  Loan
resulting out of a bankruptcy proceeding for the related mortgagor.

    (None of the Class ( ) Certificates are offered hereby.)

DISTRIBUTIONS

    Method, Timing  and Amount.   Distributions on  the Certificates will  be
made on the  ____ day of each  month or, if such  ____ day is not  a business
day,   then  on   the   next   succeeding   business   day,   commencing   in
____________________  199_   (each,  a  "   Distribution  Date"  )  .     All
distributions (other than the final  distribution on any Certificate) will be
made by the  Master Servicer to the  persons in whose names  the Certificates
are registered at the  close of business on  each Record Date, which will  be
the (last business day of the month) preceding the month in which the related
Distribution Date occurs.   Such distributions will be made by  wire transfer
in  immediately   available   funds  to   the   account  specified   by   the
Certificateholder  at a  bank or other  entity having  appropriate facilities
therefor, if  such Certificateholder will  have provided the  Master Servicer
with wiring instructions no less than five business days prior to the related
Record Date and is the registered owner of Certificates the aggregate initial
principal amount of which is at least $    , or otherwise by check mailed  to
such Certificateholder.   The final  distribution on any Certificate  will be
made in  like  manner,  but  only  upon  presentment  or  surrender  of  such
Certificate at the  location specified in the notice to the holder thereof of
such final  distribution.  All distributions made with  respect to a class of
Certificates on each Distribution  Date will be allocated pro rata  among the
outstanding Certificates of such  class based on their respective  Percentage
Interests.  The Percentage Interest evidenced by any Class ( ) Certificate is
equal to the initial denomination thereof as  of the Closing Date, divided by
the initial Certificate  Balance for such class.   The aggregate distribution
to be  made on  the Certificates  on any  Distribution Date  shall equal  the
Available Distribution Amount.

    The "Available  Distribution  Amount" for  any  Distribution Date  is  an
amount equal to (a)  the sum of (i) the amount on  deposit in the Certificate
Account as of the close of  business on the related Determination Date,  (ii)
the aggregate  amount of any Advances made by  the Master Servicer in respect
of such  Distribution Date and  (iii) the aggregate  amount deposited  by the
Master Servicer  in the Certificate  Account in respect of  such Distribution
Date in  connection with Prepayment  Interest Shortfalls incurred  during the
related Due Period, net of (b) the portion of  the amount described in clause
(a)(i)  hereof  that represents  (i)  Monthly  Payments  due  on a  Due  Date
subsequent to the end of the related Due Period, (ii) any voluntary principal
prepayments  and other unscheduled recoveries  on the Mortgage Loans received
after the  end of  the related  Due Period  or (iii) any  amounts payable  or
reimbursable therefrom to any person.

    Priority.   On each  Distribution Date, the  Master Servicer shall  apply
amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account, to the extent of the Available
Distribution Amount,  first, to distributions  of interest to holders  of the
Class (  ) Certificates, in the amount equal to all Distributable Certificate
Interest in respect of the Class ( ) Certificates for such  Distribution Date
and, to the extent not previously distributed, for all preceding Distribution
Dates and second, to distributions of  principal to holders of the Class  ( )
Certificates, in  an amount, not to exceed  the sum of the Class  ( ) Balance
outstanding  immediately prior  to  such  Distribution  Date (and  any  Class
Negative Amortization  in respect  of the  Class (  )  Certificates for  such
Distribution Date), equal  to the sum  of (A)  the then Class  ( )  Scheduled
Principal Distribution  Percentage of  the  Scheduled Principal  Distribution
Amount  for  such  Distribution  Date  and  (B)  the   Unscheduled  Principal
Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date.

    On  or after  the  reduction  of the  Class  (  )  Balance to  zero,  the
Available  Distribution Amount  will be  paid solely  to the  holders of  the
Subordinate Certificates.

    Calculations of  Interest.  The  "Distributable Certificate  Interest" in
respect of the  Class ( ) Certificates  for any Distribution  Date represents
that portion of  the Accrued Certificate Interest in respect of such class of
Certificates for such Distribution Date that is net of such class's allocable
share  of (i)  the aggregate  portion of  any Prepayment  Interest Shortfalls
resulting from voluntary  principal prepayments on the  Mortgage Loans during
the related Due Period (that are not covered by the application  of servicing
compensation  of  the  Master  Servicer  for the  related  Due  Period  (such
uncovered  aggregate  portion,  as  to  such  Distribution  Date,)  the  "Net
Aggregate Prepayment  Interest Shortfall")(;  and (ii)  the aggregate  of any
negative amortization in  respect of the Mortgage Loans  for their respective
Due Dates  during the  related Due  Period  (the aggregate  of such  negative
amortization,  as to  such Distribution  Date,  the "Aggregate  Mortgage Loan
Negative Amortization").)

    The  "Accrued  Certificate  Interest"  in  respect   of  the  Class  (  )
Certificates  for any  Distribution Date  is equal  to thirty  days' interest
accrued during the  related Interest Accrual Period at  the Pass-Through Rate
applicable to such  class of Certificates for such  Distribution Date accrued
on  the  related  (Certificate   Balance)  (Classes  (  )   Notional  Amount)
outstanding immediately  prior to such  Distribution Date.   The Pass-Through
Rate applicable  to the Class ( ) Certificates  for any Distribution Date (is
fixed and  is set forth on the cover hereof) (will equal the weighted average
of the Class ( ) Remittance Rates in effect for the Mortgage Assets as of the
commencement of  the related Due  Period (as  to such Distribution  Date, the
"Weighted Average Class  ( ) Remittance  Rate").  The  "Class ( )  Remittance
Rate"  in effect for  any Mortgage Loan  as of any date  of determination (a)
prior  to its first  Interest Rate Adjustment  Date, is equal  to the related
Mortgage Rate then in  effect minus ---- basis points and  (b) from and after
its first Interest  Rate Adjustment  Date, is equal  to the related  Mortgage
Rate then in  effect minus the excess  of the related Gross Margin  over ----
basis  points.  The  "Interest Accrual  Period" for  the Certificates  is the
calendar month  preceding the month  in which the Distribution  Date occurs.)
(is equal to  the excess of the Mortgage Rate thereon  over ____% per annum.)
(The Class ( ) Notional Amount will  equal the (sum of the Class ( ) Balance.
The Class ( )  Notional Amount does not entitle the Class ( ) Certificate (or
a component thereof) to any distribution of principal.)

    The  portion of  Net  Aggregate Prepayment  Interest  Shortfall (and  the
Aggregate Mortgage Loan Negative Amortization) for any Distribution Date that
will be allocated  to the Class  ( ) Certificates  on such Distribution  Date
will  be  equal  to  the  then  applicable  Class  (  )  Interest  Allocation
Percentage.    The  "Class  (  )  Interest  Allocation  Percentage"  for  any
Distribution  Date will  equal a  fraction,  expressed as  a percentage,  the
numerator of which is equal to the product of (a) the Class ( ) Balance ((net
of any  Uncovered  Portion thereof))  outstanding immediately  prior to  such
Distribution Date, multiplied by (b) the Pass-Through  Rate for the Class ( )
Certificates for such Distribution Date, and the  denominator of which is the
product  of (x) the aggregate Stated  Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans
outstanding immediately prior  to such Distribution  Date, multiplied by  (y)
the Weighted Average  Net Mortgage Rate for such Distribution Date.  The "Net
Mortgage  Rate"  in  effect  for  any  Mortgage  Loan  as  of  any   date  of
determination is equal to the related Mortgage Rate then in effect minus ----
basis points.   (The "Uncovered Portion" of the Class  ( ) Balance, as of any
date of  determination, is  the portion thereof  representing the  excess, if
any, of (a)  the Class ( )  Balance then outstanding, over  (b) the aggregate
Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans then outstanding.)

    (The  Class  ( )  Certificates  (or a  component  thereof)  will  not  be
entitled to distributions of interest and will not have a Pass-Through Rate.)

    Calculations of  Principal.  Holders of  the Class (  ) Certificates will
be entitled  to  receive on  each Distribution  Date, to  the  extent of  the
balance of the  Available Distribution Amount remaining after  the payment of
the  Class ( )  Interest Distribution  Amount for  such Distribution  Date an
amount equal to the  Class ( ) Principal Distribution Amount.  The "Class ( )
Principal Distribution Amount"  for any Distribution Date will  equal the sum
of (i)  the product  of the Scheduled  Principal Distribution Amount  and the
Class (  ) Scheduled Principal  Distribution Percentage, (ii) the  product of
the  Senior Accelerated  Percentage and  all  principal prepayments  received
during  the related  Due  Period and,  (iii)  to  the extent  not  previously
advanced,  (the lesser  of the  Class  ( )  Scheduled Principal  Distribution
Percentage of  the Stated  Principal Balance  of the Mortgage  Loans and  the
Senior  Accelerated  Percentage  of  the Unscheduled  Principal  Distribution
Amount net  of any prepayment  amounts described in  clause (ii) above.   The
"Scheduled Principal Distribution Amount" for  any Distribution Date is equal
to the aggregate of the principal portions of all Monthly Payments, including
Balloon Payments, due during or, if and to the extent not previously received
or advanced and distributed to Certificateholders on a preceding Distribution
Date, prior to the related Due Period, in each case to the extent paid by the
related mortgagor or  advanced by  the Master  Servicer and  included in  the
Available Distribution  Amount  for such  Distribution Date.   The  principal
portion of  any Advances in respect of  a Mortgage Loan delinquent  as to its
Balloon Payment will constitute advances  in respect of the principal portion
of such Balloon Payment.

    (The  portion of the  Class ( ) Principal  Distribution Amount payable on
any Distribution Date  shall be allocated  to the Class  ( ) Certificates  as
follows:  (Describe  distributions which may be concurrent  or sequential and
among different classes and may be  based on a schedule of payments sometimes
referred to as a Schedule of PAC,  TAC or Scheduled Balances for some and not
other classes.))

    (The  Class  ( )  Scheduled  Principal  Distribution Percentage  for  any
Distribution  Date  represents   the  portion  of  the   Scheduled  Principal
Distribution Amount  for  such  Distribution  Date payable  (subject  to  the
payment priorities  described herein)  on the  Class (  ) Certificates.   The
"Class ( )  Scheduled Principal Distribution Percentage" for any Distribution
Date will  equal the lesser  of (a) 100% and  (b) a fraction,  expressed as a
percentage, the  numerator of  which is  the  Class (  ) Balance  outstanding
immediately prior to  such Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is
the lesser of (i) the sum of the Class ( ) Balance, the Class ( ) Balance and
the Class  ( ) Balance and (ii) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the
Mortgage  Loans,  in  either  case  outstanding  immediately  prior  to  such
Distribution Date.)

    The  "Unscheduled  Principal  Distribution Amount"  for  any Distribution
Date  is equal  to  the sum  of:   (a)  all  voluntary principal  prepayments
received  on the Mortgage  Loans during the  related Due Period;  and (b) the
excess, if any,  of (i) all  unscheduled recoveries received on  the Mortgage
Loans during  the related  Due Period,  whether  in the  form of  liquidation
proceeds,  condemnation proceeds,  insurance  proceeds  or  amounts  paid  in
connection  with  the purchase  of a  Mortgage  Loan out  of the  Trust Fund,
exclusive in each  case of any portion thereof payable or reimbursable to the
Master  Servicer in connection with the  related Mortgage Loan, over (ii) the
respective portions of the net amounts described in the immediately preceding
clause (i) needed to cover interest  (at the applicable Net Mortgage Rate  in
effect from time to time) on the related Mortgage Loan from the date to which
interest  was previously  paid  or advanced  through the  Due  Date for  such
Mortgage Loan in  the related Due Period  ((exclusive of any portion  of such
interest added to  the principal balance  of such Mortgage  Loan as  negative
amortization).)

    (The  "Class   Negative  Amortization"  in   respect  of  any   class  of
Certificates  for any  Distribution Date  is equal  to such  class' allocable
share  of  the  Aggregate  Mortgage  Loan  Negative  Amortization   for  such
Distribution Date.)

SUBORDINATION

     In order  to  maximize the  likelihood of  distribution in  full of  the
Class ( )  Interest Distribution Amount and the Class ( ) Scheduled Principal
Distribution  Amount, on  each Distribution  Date, holders of  the Class  ( )
Certificates  have  a right  to distributions  of the  Available Distribution
Amount  that  is  prior to  the  rights  of the  holders  of  the Subordinate
Certificates,   to  the  extent  necessary  to  satisfy  the  Class  Interest
Distribution Amount  and  the  Class (  )  Scheduled  Principal  Distribution
Amount.

    (The entitlement to the Class ( ) Certificates of  the (entire) (a larger
percentage under certain circumstances of) Unscheduled Principal Distribution
Amount  will  accelerate the  amortization  of  the  Class (  )  Certificates
relative to the actual amortization of the Mortgage Loans.)

     (To  the extent  that the  Class ( )  Certificates are  amortized faster
than the Mortgage  Loans, without taking into account losses  on the Mortgage
Loans, the percentage interest evidenced by the Class ( ) Certificates in the
Trust  Fund will be decreased (with  a corresponding increase in the interest
in  the  Trust  Fund  evidenced  by  the  Subordinate  Certificates), thereby
increasing,   relative  to   their  respective   Certificate  Balances,   the
Subordinate --------- afforded the Class  ( ) Certificates by the Subordinate
Certificates.)

    (The principal portion of any Realized Losses will be allocated first  in
reduction of the  Subordinate Certificates (in the order  specified here) and
then to the Class ( ) Certificates (in the order specified here).  Any losses
realized on a Mortgage Loan that is finally liquidated equal to the excess of
the Stated Principal  Balance of such Mortgage  Loan remaining, if any,  plus
interest thereon  through the last  day of the  month in which  such Mortgage
Loan was finally  liquidated, after application of all  amounts received (net
of  amounts reimbursable  to  the  Master Servicer  or  any Sub-Servicer  for
Advances  and expenses,  including  attorneys'  fees)  towards  interest  and
principal owing on  the Mortgage Loan, is  referred to herein as  a "Realized
Loss.")

ADVANCES

     On the  business day immediately  preceding each Distribution  Date, the
Master Servicer will be  obligated to make advances (each, an  "Advance") out
of its  own funds,  or funds  held in  the Certificate  Account that  are not
required  to  be   part  of  the  Available  Distribution   Amount  for  such
Distribution Date, in an amount equal to the aggregate of ((i)) all 
Monthly Payments (net  of the Servicing Fee), (other  than Balloon Payments,)
which were  due  on the  Mortgage Loans  during the  related  Due Period  and
delinquent as of the related Determination Date (and (ii) in the case of each
Mortgage Loan delinquent in respect of its  Balloon Payment as of the related
Determination  Date, an  amount sufficient  to amortize  fully the  principal
portion of such  Balloon Payment over the remaining amortization term of such
Mortgage Loan and to pay interest at the Net Mortgage Rate in effect for such
Mortgage Loan for the one  month period preceding its Due Date in the related
Due Period (but only to the extent  that the related mortgagor has not made a
payment sufficient to  cover such  amount under  any forbearance  arrangement
that  has  been  included  in  the Available  Distribution  Amount  for  such
Distribution Date)).   The Master Servicer's obligations to  make Advances in
respect  of any  Mortgage  Loan  will continue  through  liquidation of  such
Mortgage Loan and out of its own funds from  any amounts collected in respect
of the Mortgage Loan as to  which such Advance was made, whether in  the form
of  late payments,  insurance  proceeds,  liquidation proceeds,  condemnation
proceeds or  amounts paid  in connection with  the purchase of  such Mortgage
Loan.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing, the Master Servicer  will be obligated
to make any Advance only  to the extent that it determines  in its reasonable
good faith judgment  that, if made, would be recoverable out of general funds
on deposit in the Certificate Account.  Any failure by the Master Servicer to
make an  Advance as required under  the Pooling and  Servicing Agreement will
constitute an event  of default thereunder, in which case the trustee will be
obligated to  make any  such Advance,  in accordance  with the  terms of  the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


            CERTAIN YIELD, PREPAYMENT AND MATURITY CONSIDERATIONS

     The yield to maturity  on the Class ( ) Certificates will be affected by
the rate  of principal  payments on the  Mortgage Loans  including, for  this
purpose,  prepayments,  which  may  include  amounts  received by  virtue  of
repurchase, condemnation, insurance or foreclosure.  The yield to maturity on
the Class  ( ) Certificates will also be affected  by the level of the Index.
The rate of principal payments on the Class ( ) Certificates  will correspond
to  the rate  of principal  payments (including  prepayments) on  the related
Mortgage Loans.

    (Description  of factors affecting yield, prepayment  and maturity of the
Mortgage Loans and  Class ( ) Certificates depending  upon characteristics of
the Mortgage Loans.)

WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE OF THE CLASS ( ) CERTIFICATES

    Weighted average life refers to the average amount of  time from the date
of issuance  of a security  until each dollar  of principal of  such security
will be repaid to  the investor.  The weighted average life of  the Class ( )
Certificates  will be  influenced by  the  rate at  which principal  payments
(including  scheduled  payments,  principal  prepayments  and  payments  made
pursuant to any  applicable policies of insurance) on the  Mortgage Loans are
made.   Principal  payments on  the  Mortgage Loans  may be  in  the form  of
scheduled  amortization   or  prepayments   (for  this   purpose,  the   term
"prepayment" includes prepayments and liquidations  due to a default or other
dispositions of the Mortgage Loans).

    The table of  Percent of Initial Certificate Balance Outstanding  for the
Class ( ) Certificates at the respective percentages of (CPR) (SPA) set forth
below indicates the weighted average life of such Certificates and sets forth
the  percentage of  the initial  principal amount  of such  Certificates that
would  be  outstanding after  each  of  the  dates  shown  at  the  indicated
percentages of (CPR)(SPA).  The table has  been prepared on the basis of  the
following  assumptions regarding the  characteristics of the  Mortgage Loans:
(i) an outstanding principal balance of $_________, a remaining  amortization
term of ___ months and a term to balloon of ___ months: (ii) an interest rate
equal  to ____% per annum until the  ---- Due Date and thereafter an interest
rate  equal to ---%  per annum  (at an  assumed Index  of ____%)  and Monthly
Payments that would fully amortize the remaining balance of the Mortgage Loan
over its remaining amortization term; (iii) the Mortgage  Loans prepay at the
indicated percentage of  (CPR)(SPA); (iv) the  maturity date of  each of  the
Balloon Mortgage Loans  is not extended; (v)  distributions on the Class  ( )
Certificates are received in cash, on the 25th day of each  month, commencing
in_____________;  (vi) no  defaults or  delinquencies  in, or  modifications,
waivers or amendments respecting, the  payment by the mortgagors of principal
and  interest on  the Mortgage  Loans  occur; (vii)  the initial  Certificate
Balance  of the  Class  (  ) Certificates  is  $________; (viii)  prepayments
represent payment  in full of individual  Mortgage Loans and  are received on
the respective Due Dates  and include 30 days'  interest thereon; (ix)  there
are no  repurchases of Mortgage Loans  due to breaches of  any representation
and warranty or  otherwise; (x) the Class  ( ) Certificates are  purchased on
________; (xi) the Servicing  Fee is ____% per annum; and (xii)  the Index on
each Interest Rate Adjustment Date is ________% per annum.

    Based  on the  foregoing assumptions,  the table  indicates the  weighted
average life of the Class ( ) Certificates  and sets forth the percentages of
the initial Certificate Balance of the  Class ( ) Certificates that would  be
outstanding after the  Distribution Date in ___________ of  each of the years
indicated, at various percentages of  (CPR)(SPA).  Neither (CPR)(SPA) nor any
other prepayment model or assumption  purports to be a historical description
of  prepayment  experience  or  a  prediction  of  the  anticipated  rate  of
prepayment  of any  pool  of  mortgage loans,  including  the Mortgage  Loans
included  in  the  Mortgage  Pool.    Variations  in  the  actual  prepayment
experience and the balance of the Mortgage Loans that prepay may  increase or
decrease the percentage of initial Certificate  Balance (and weighted average
life) shown in  the following table.   Such variations may occur  even if the
average prepayment  experience of all such Mortgage Loans  is the same as any
of the specified assumptions.

Weighted Average Life
 (Years) (+) . . . . . . . . . . . .

+   The weighted average life of the Class ( )  Certificates is determined by
    (i)  multiplying the  amount of  each  distribution of  principal by  the
    number  of years from  the date of  issuance to  the related Distribution
    Date, (ii) adding  the results and  (iii) dividing the  sum by the  total

THE MASTER SERVICER

    General.  ____________________,  a __________________  corporation,  will
act  as Master  Servicer (in such  capacity, the  "Master Servicer")  for the
Certificates pursuant  to the  Pooling and Servicing  Agreement.   The Master
Servicer(, a  wholly-owned  subsidiary of  __________,)  (is engaged  in  the
mortgage banking  business and,  as  such, originates,  purchases, sells  and
services mortgage  loans.   _________________  primarily originates  mortgage

    Delinquency  and Foreclosure Experience.   The following tables set forth
certain information concerning the  delinquency experience (including pending
foreclosures) on one- to four-  family residential mortgage loans included in
the Master Servicer's servicing portfolio (which includes mortgage loans that
are subserviced by others).   The indicated periods of delinquency  are based
on the number of days past  due on a contractual basis.  No  mortgage loan is
considered  delinquent  for these  purposes  until  31  days past  due  on  a
contractual basis.

    There  can  be   no  assurance  that  the   delinquency  and  foreclosure
experience of the Mortgage Loans comprising the Mortgage Pool will correspond
to  the  delinquency and  foreclosure  experience  of the  Master  Servicer's
mortgage  portfolio  set  forth  in  the foregoing  tables.    The  aggregate
delinquency  and foreclosure experience on the  Mortgage Loans comprising the
Mortgage  Pool will  depend on  the  results obtained  over the  life  of the
Mortgage Pool.


CERTIFICATE ACCOUNT

    The Master Servicer  is required to deposit on a  daily basis all amounts
received with  respect to the Mortgage Loans of the Mortgage Pool, net of its
servicing compensation, into  a separate Certificate Account  maintained with
____________.  Interest or  other income earned on  funds in the  Certificate
Account  will  be  paid  to  the  Master  Servicer  as  additional  servicing
compensation.   See "Description  of the Trust Funds  -- Mortgage Assets" and
"Description  of the Agreements  -- Certificate Account  and Other Collection
Accounts" in the Prospectus.

SERVICING AND OTHER COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES
(Include description of Servicing Standard)
- --------------------------------------------------------

    The principal compensation to be  paid to the Master Servicer  in respect
of its master  servicing activities will be the Servicing Fee.  The Servicing
Fee will be payable monthly only from amounts received in respect of interest
on each  Mortgage Loan,  will accrue at  the Servicing  Fee Rate and  will be
computed on the basis  of the same principal  amount and for the same  period
respecting  which any  related  interest  payment on  such  Mortgage Loan  is
computed.  The Servicing Fee Rate (with  respect to each Mortgage Loan equals
- ---% per annum)  (equals the weighted average of the excesses of the Mortgage
Rates over the respective Net Mortgage Rates).

    As additional servicing compensation, the Master  Servicer is entitled to
retain all assumption fees, prepayment penalties and late payment charges, to
the extent  collected from  mortgagors, together with  any interest  or other
income  earned on  funds  held  in the  Certificate  Account  and any  escrow
accounts.   The  Servicing Standard  requires the  Master Servicer  to, among
other things, diligently service and  administer the Mortgage Loans on behalf
of the  Trustee and  in the  best  interests of  the Certificateholders,  but

servicing  compensation.   The Master  Servicer is  obligated to  pay certain
ongoing expenses associated with the Mortgage Pool and incurred by the Master
Servicer in  connection with its  responsibilities under the Agreement.   See
"Description of the  Agreements -- Retained Interest;  Servicing Compensation
and Payment  of Expenses" in  the Prospectus for information  regarding other
possible  compensation payable  to the  Master Servicer  and for  information
regarding  expenses  payable by  the  Master Servicer  (and  "Certain Federal
Income Tax Consequences" herein regarding certain taxes payable by the Master
Servicer).

REPORTS TO CERTIFICATEHOLDERS

    On  each Distribution  Date the  Master  Servicer shall  furnish to  each

a statement  setting forth certain  information with respect to  the Mortgage
Loans and  the Certificates  required pursuant to  the Pooling  and Servicing
Agreement.    In addition,  within a  reasonable  period of  time  after each
calendar year, the  Master Servicer shall furnish  to each person who  at any
time during such  calendar year was the  holder of a Certificate  a statement
containing  certain information  with respect  to  the Certificates  required
pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, aggregated for such calendar
year or  portion thereof  during which such  person was  a Certificateholder.
See "Description of the Certificates -- Reports to Certificateholders" in the
Prospectus.

VOTING RIGHTS

    At all times during the  term of this Agreement, the Voting  Rights shall
be allocated  among the  Classes of Certificateholders  in proportion  to the
respective Certificate Balances  of their Certificates ((net, in  the case of
the Class ( ), Class ( ) and Class ( ) Certificates, of any Uncovered Portion
of the related  Certificate Balance)).  Voting Rights allocated to a class of
Certificateholders  shall  be  allocated  among  such  Certificateholders  in
proportion   to  the  Percentage  Interests  evidenced  by  their  respective
Certificates.


TERMINATION

    The  obligations  created by  the  Pooling and  Servicing  Agreement will
terminate  following  the  earliest  of   (i)  the  final  payment  or  other
liquidation of the  last Mortgage Loan  or REO Property subject  thereto, and
(ii)  the purchase  of all  of the  assets of  the Trust  Fund by  the Master
Servicer.    Written notice  of  termination  of  the Pooling  and  Servicing
Agreement will be given to each Certificateholder, and the final distribution
will be made only upon surrender and  cancellation of the Certificates at the
office of the Certificate Registrar  specified in such notice of termination.
In  no event, however,  will the trust  created by the  Pooling and Servicing
Agreement continue beyond  the expiration of 21  years from the death  of the
survivor of certain persons named in such Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

    Any such purchase by  the Master Servicer of  all the Mortgage Loans  and
other assets in the Trust Fund is required to be made at a price equal to the
greater of (1) the aggregate fair market value of  all the Mortgage Loans and
REO Properties then included in the Trust Fund, as mutually determined by the
Master Servicer and the Trustee, and (2) the excess of (a) the sum of (i) the
aggregate Purchase Price of all the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust
Fund and (ii)  the fair market value  of all REO Properties then  included in
the Trust  Fund, as determined  by an appraiser  mutually agreed upon  by the
Master Servicer and the Trustee, over (b) the aggregate of amounts payable or
reimbursable  to  the  Master  Servicer  under  the  Pooling  and   Servicing
Agreement.    Such  purchase  will   effect  early  retirement  of  the  then
outstanding Class  ( ) Certificates, but the right  of the Master Servicer to
effect  such termination  is subject  to the  requirement that  the aggregate
Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans then in the Trust Fund is less
than  __% of the aggregate principal balance  of the Mortgage Loans as of the
Cut-off Date.  (In  addition, the Master Servicer may at  its option purchase
any class  or classes of  Class ( )  Certificates with a  Certificate Balance
less  than __%  of the  original balance  thereof at  a price  equal to  such
Certificate Balance plus accrued interest through _________.)


                               USE OF PROCEEDS

    The net proceeds from the sale of Class ( )  Certificates will be used by
the Depositor to pay the purchase price of the Mortgage Loans.


                   CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

    Upon  the issuance of  the Class (  ) Certificates,  Brown & Wood  LLP or
Latham  &  Watkins,  counsel  to  the Depositor,  will  deliver  its  opinion
generally to the effect  that, assuming compliance with all provisions of the
Pooling and Servicing  Agreement, for federal income tax  purposes, the Trust
Fund will qualify as a REMIC under the Code.

    For federal income  tax purposes, the Class ( )  Certificates will be the
sole class of "residual interests" in the REMIC and the Class (  ), Class ( )
and Class ( ) Certificates will be  the "regular interests" in the REMIC  and
will be treated as debt instruments of the REMIC.

    See  "Certain  Federal  Income  Tax   Consequences  --  REMICS"  in   the
Prospectus.

    (The Class  ( ) Certificates  (may)(will not) be  treated as having  been
issued  with  original  issue  discount  for  federal  income  tax  reporting
purposes.  The  prepayment assumption that  will be used  in determining  the
rate of accrual of  original issue discount, market discount  and premium, if
any,  for federal income  tax purposes will  be based on  the assumption that
subsequent to the date of any determination the Mortgage Loans will prepay at
a rate equal to ___% (CPR)(SPA).  No representation is made that the Mortgage
Loans will prepay  at that rate or  at any other rate.   See "Certain Federal
Income Tax  Consequences --  REMICS -- Taxation  of Owners  of REMIC  Regular
Certificates" and "--Original Issue Discount" in the Prospectus.)

    The  Class  ( )  Certificates  may  be  treated for  federal  income  tax
purposes as having  been issued at a premium.   Whether any holder  of such a
class  of  Certificates  will  be  treated  as  holding  a  certificate  with
amortizable bond  premium will  depend on  such Certificateholder's  purchase
price and the distributions remaining to  be made on such Certificate at  the
time of its acquisition by such Certificateholder.  Holders of such  class of
Certificates should consult their own tax  advisors regarding the possibility
of making an  election to amortize such premium.  See "Certain Federal Income
Tax  Consequences  --   REMICS  --  Taxation  of  Owners   of  REMIC  Regular
Certificates" and "-- Premium" in the Prospectus.

    (The  Class (  ) Certificates  will  be treated  as  assets described  in
Section  7701(a)(19)(C) of  the Code)  and  "real estate  assets" within  the
meaning of Section 856(c)(4)(A) of the Code generally in the  same proportion
that the  assets  of  the REMIC  underlying  such Certificates  would  be  so
treated.)  (In addition, interest  (including original issue discount) on the
Class ( ) Certificates will be interests described in Section 856(c)(3)(B) of
the Code to the extent that such  Class ( ) Certificates are treated as "real
estate assets" under Section 856(c)(4)(A) of the Code.)  (Moreover, the Class
( )  Certificates  will be  "obligation(s) .   .    .   which .    .   .(are)
principally secured  by an interest in  real property" within  the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(3)(C) of the  Code.) (The Class ( ) Certificates  will not be
considered to represent an interest in "loans .  .  .  secured by an interest
in  real property" within  the meaning of  Section 7701  (a)(19)(C)(v) of the
Code.)  See  "Certain   Federal  Income   Tax  Consequences   --  REMICS   --
Characterization of Investments in REMIC Certificates" in the Prospectus.

    For further information regarding  the federal income tax consequences of
investing in the  Class (  ) Certificates,  see "Certain  Federal Income  Tax
Consequences -- REMICS" in the Prospectus.


                             ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

    (A fiduciary of any employee  benefit plan or other retirement plans  and
arrangements, including individual  retirement accounts and annuities,  Keogh
plans  and  collective investment  funds  and separate  accounts  and certain
insurance  company  general  accounts  in   which  such  plans,  accounts  or
arrangements are invested, that is  subject to the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of  1974, as amended ("ERISA"  and an "ERISA Plan"),  or Section
4975 of  the Code (together  with an  ERISA Plan,  "Plans") should  carefully
review with its legal  advisors whether the purchase or holding of  Class ( )
Certificates could give  rise to a transaction  that is prohibited or  is not
otherwise permitted either under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

    (The U.S. Department of  Labor issued an individual exemption, Prohibited
Transaction Exemption (90-24) (the "Exemption"),  (on May 17, 1990) to Morgan
Stanley & Co.  Incorporated, which generally exempts from  the application of
the prohibited transaction provisions of Section 406 of ERISA, and the excise
taxes imposed  on such prohibited  transactions pursuant to  Sections 4975(a)
and (b) of the Code and Section 501(i) of ERISA, certain  transactions, among
others, relating  to the servicing  and operation of  mortgage pools  and the
purchase, sale and holding of mortgage pass-through certificates underwritten
by an Underwriter (as hereinafter  defined), provided that certain conditions
set forth  in the  Exemption are  satisfied.   For purposes  of this  Section
"ERISA  Considerations",  the  term "Underwriter"  shall  include  (a) Morgan
Stanley &  Co. Incorporated, (b)  any person directly or  indirectly, through
one or  more  intermediaries,  controlling, controlled  by  or  under  common
control  with Morgan  Stanley & Co.  Incorporated and  (c) any member  of the
underwriting syndicate or selling group of which a person described in (a) or
(b) is a manager or co-manager with respect to the Class ( ) Certificates.

    The Exemption sets  forth six general conditions which must  be satisfied
for a transaction involving the  purchase, sale and holding of the Class  ( )
Certificates or a transaction in connection with the servicing, operation and
management of the Trust  Fund to be eligible for exemptive relief thereunder.
First, the acquisition of  the Class ( )  Certificates by a Plan, must  be on
terms  that are  at least as  favorable to  the Plan as  they would  be in an
arm's-length transaction  with an  unrelated party.   Second, the  rights and
interests evidenced by the Class ( )  Certificates must not be subordinate to
the rights  and interests  evidenced by the  other certificates of  the Trust
with respect  to the  right to  receive payment  in the event  of default  or
delinquencies  in  underlying assets  of the  Trust.   Third,  the Class  ( )
Certificates at the time of  acquisition by the Plan must be rated  in one of
the three highest generic rating categories by Standard & Poor's Corporation,
Moody's  Investors Service,  Inc., Duff &  Phelps Credit Rating  Co. or Fitch
Investors Service, Inc.   Fourth, the Trustee  cannot be an affiliate  of any
member  of the  "Restricted Group",  which consists  of any  Underwriter, the
Depositor, the  Master Servicer,  each  sub-servicer and  any mortgagor  with
respect  to  Mortgage  Loans  constituting  more than  5%  of  the  aggregate
unamortized principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the date of initial
issuance of the Class ( ) Certificates.  Fifth, the sum of  all payments made
to and  retained by the Underwriter  must represent not more  than reasonable
compensation for underwriting  the Class  ( )  Certificates; the  sum of  all
payments made to and retained by the Underwriter must represent not more than
reasonable compensation for underwriting the  Class ( ) Certificates; the sum
of all  payments  made to  and  retained by  the  Depositor pursuant  to  the
assignment of the  Mortgage Loans to the  Trust Fund must represent  not more
than the fair market value of such  obligations; and the sum of all  payments
made to  and  retained by  the  Master  Servicer and  any  sub-servicer  must
represent not more  than reasonable compensation  for such person's  services
under the Agreement and reimbursement of such person's reasonable expenses in
connection  therewith.   Sixth,  the  investing Plan  must  be an  accredited
investor as defined in  Rule 501(a)(1) of Regulation D of  the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

    Because  the Class  ( )  Certificates  are not  subordinate to  any other
class of  Certificates with respect  to the right  to receive payment  in the
event of default or delinquencies on the underlying assets of the  Trust, the
second general  condition set forth above  is satisfied with respect  to such
Certificates.    It  is  a condition  of  the  issuance  of  the  Class  (  )
Certificates    that   they   be   rated   (not   lower   than)   "____"   by
___________________.  A fiduciary of  a Plan contemplating purchasing a Class
( ) Certificate  in the secondary market must make its own determination that
at the  time of  such acquisition,  the Class  ( )  Certificates continue  to
satisfy the third general  condition set forth above.  The  Depositor expects
that the  fourth general condition  set forth  above will  be satisfied  with
respect to the Class  ( ) Certificates.  A fiduciary of  a Plan contemplating
purchasing a Class (  ) Certificate must make its own  determination that the
first, third,  fifth and  sixth general  conditions set  forth above will  be
satisfied with respect to such Class ( ) Certificate.

    Before purchasing a  Class ( ) Certificate, a fiduciary  of a Plan should
itself  confirm  (a)  that such  Certificates  constitute  "certificates" for
purposes of the Exemption and (b) that the specific and general conditions of
the Exemption and the other requirements set forth in the Exemption  would be
satisfied.    In  addition  to  making  its  own  determination   as  to  the
availability  of the  exemptive relief  provided in  the Exemption,  the Plan
fiduciary   should  consider  the   availability  of  any   other  prohibited
transaction exemptions, in particular, Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption
83-1.  See "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus.

    Any  Plan  fiduciary  considering  whether  to   purchase  a  Class  (  )
Certificate on behalf of a Plan should consult with its counsel regarding the
applicability  of  the fiduciary  responsibility  and  prohibited transaction
provisions of ERISA and the Code  to such investment.  Prospective purchasers
that are  insurance companies  should consult  with  their counsel  regarding
whether  the United  States  Supreme Court's  decision  in the  case of  John
Hancock v. Harris Trust Savings Bank, 510 U.S. 86 (1993) --------------------
- --------------
affects their  ability to  make purchases  of Class  () Certificates and  the
extent  to  which   Prohibited  Transaction  Class  Exemption  95-60  may  be
available.  See "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus.


                               LEGAL INVESTMENT

    The  Class  (  )  Certificates (will)  (will  not)  constitute  "mortgage
related securities" for purposes of the Secondary Mortgage Market Enhancement
Act of  1984 ("SMMEA")  (so long as  they are  rated in  at least the  second
highest  rating category  by  the  Rating Agency,  and,  as such,  are  legal
investments for certain  entities to  the extent provided  in SMMEA).   SMMEA
provided that  states could override  its provisions on legal  investment and
restrict  or condition  investment in mortgage  related securities  by taking
statutory action on or prior to October 3, 1991.  Certain states have enacted
legislation which overrides the preemption provisions of SMMEA.

    The Depositor makes no representations as to the proper  characterization
of  the Class ( ) Certificates for legal  investment or other purposes, or as
to the ability of particular investors to purchase the Class ( ) Certificates
under  applicable legal  investment restrictions.    These uncertainties  may
adversely affect the liquidity of  the Class ( ) Certificates.   Accordingly,
all institutions whose investment activities are subject to legal  investment
laws and regulations, regulatory capital requirements or review by regulatory
authorities  should consult  with  their own  legal  advisors in  determining
whether and to  what extent  the Class  ( ) Certificates  constitute a  legal
investment  under  SMMEA  or  is  subject to  investment,  capital  or  other
restrictions.

    See "Legal Investment" in the Prospectus.


                             PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

    Subject  to  the terms  and  conditions  set forth  in  the  Underwriting
Agreement  between  the  Depositor  and   the  Underwriter,  the  Class  (  )
Certificates  will be  purchased from  the Depositor  by the  Underwriter, an
affiliate of the  Depositor, upon issuance.   Distribution of  the Class (  )
Certificates will be  made by the Underwriter from time to time in negotiated
transactions or  otherwise at varying prices to be  determined at the time of
sale.   Proceeds to the Depositor  from the Certificates  will be __%  of the
initial  aggregate principal  balance thereof  as of  the Cut-off  Date, plus
accrued interest from  the Cut-off Date  at a rate  of __% per  annum, before
deducting expenses payable by the Depositor.  In connection with the purchase
and sale of the Class ( ) Certificates, the Underwriter may be deemed to have
received  compensation  from  the  Depositor  in  the  form  of  underwriting
discounts.

    The Depositor also has  been advised by the Underwriter  that it, through
one or more of its affiliates currently expects to make a market in the Class
( ) Certificates offered hereby; however, it has no obligation  to do so, any
market making  may be discontinued at any time, and there can be no assurance
that an active public market for the Class ( ) Certificates will develop.

    The Depositor  has agreed to indemnify  the Underwriter against,  or make
contributions  to the  Underwriter  with  respect  to,  certain  liabilities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933.


                                LEGAL MATTERS

    Certain legal matters will  be passed upon for  the Depositor by Brown  &
Wood LLP,  New York, New York or Latham & Watkins, New York, New York and for
the Underwriter by ____________________.


                                    RATING

    It  is a condition to  issuance that the Class  ( ) Certificates be rated
(not  lower  than) "______"  by  ________________.    However, no  person  is
obligated to  maintain  the  rating  on  the  Class  (  )  Certificates,  and
_______________ is not obligated to  monitor its rating following the Closing
Date.

    ________________'s  ratings on mortgage pass-through certificates address
the likelihood of  the receipt by holders  thereof of payments to  which they
are entitled.   _____________'s  ratings take  into consideration the  credit
quality of  the mortgage pool,  structural and legal aspects  associated with
the certificates, and the extent to which the payment stream in  the mortgage
pool  is   adequate  to  make  payments  required   under  the  certificates.
_________________'s rating on  the Class ( ) Certificates  does not, however,
constitute a  statement regarding  frequency of  prepayments on  the Mortgage
Loans.   (The  rating of  the Class  (  ) Certificates  does not  address the
possibility that the  holders of such Certificates may fail  to fully recover
their initial investments.)  See "Risk Factors" herein.

    There  can be no assurance as to  whether any rating agency not requested
to rate the Class  ( ) Certificates will nonetheless  issue a rating and,  if
so,  what  such  rating would  be.    A  rating assigned  to  the  Class (  )
Certificates by a  rating agency that has not been requested by the Depositor
to do so may be lower than the rating assigned by ________________'s pursuant
to the Depositor's request.

    The  rating   of  the  Class  (   )  Certificates  should   be  evaluated
independently from similar ratings on other  types of securities.  A security
rating is not  a recommendation to  buy, sell or  hold securities and  may be
subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency.

                                   ________

    The  Certificates offered  hereby and by  Supplements to  this Prospectus
(the "Offered Certificates") will be offered from time to time in one or more
series.  Each series  of Certificates  will  represent in  the aggregate  the
entire  beneficial ownership  interest in a  trust fund (with  respect to any
series,  the "Trust  Fund") consisting  of one  or more  segregated  pools of
various  types  of single  family  mortgage  loans  (the  "Mortgage  Loans"),
mortgage participations, mortgage  pass-through certificates, mortgage-backed
securities  evidencing  interests  therein or  secured  thereby  (the "MBS"),
certain direct obligations of the United States, agencies thereof or agencies
created thereby  (the "Government Securities")  or a combination  of Mortgage
Loans,  MBS  and/or  Government  Securities  (with  respect  to  any  series,
collectively, "Assets"). The Mortgage Loans and MBS are collectively referred
to herein as the "Mortgage Assets." If so specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the Trust  Fund for a series of  Certificates may include letters
of credit,  insurance policies, guarantees,  reserve funds or other  types of
credit  support, or  any combination  thereof  (with respect  to any  series,
collectively,  "Credit  Support"),  and currency  or  interest  rate exchange
agreements  and  other financial  assets,  or any  combination  thereof (with
respect  to   any  series,   collectively,  "Cash   Flow  Agreements").   See
"Description  of the  Trust  Funds," "Description  of  the Certificates"  and
"Description of Credit Support."

    Each  series  of Certificates  will consist  of  one or  more  classes of
Certificates that may  (i) provide for the accrual of  interest thereon based
on fixed, variable or adjustable rates; (ii) be senior or subordinate to  one
or more  other classes of Certificates in respect of certain distributions on
the  Certificates;  (iii) be   entitled  to  principal  distributions,   with
disproportionately  low,   nominal  or  no  interest  distributions;  (iv) be
entitled to interest  distributions, with disproportionately low,  nominal or
no principal distributions; (v) provide for distributions of accrued interest
thereon commencing only  following the occurrence of certain  events, such as
the retirement  of one or more other classes  of Certificates of such series;
(vi) provide  for distributions of principal sequentially, based on specified
payment  schedules   or   other   methodologies;   and/or (vii) provide   for
distributions  based on a combination of  two or more components thereof with
one or more of the characteristics described in this paragraph, to the extent
of  available funds,  in each  case as  described  in the  related Prospectus
Supplement. Any such classes may include classes of Offered Certificates. See
"Description of the Certificates." 

    Principal   and   interest  with   respect   to   Certificates  will   be
distributable  monthly, quarterly, semi-annually  or at such  other intervals
and  on   the  dates   specified  in   the  related   Prospectus  Supplement.
Distributions on the  Certificates of any series  will be made only  from the
assets of the related Trust Fund. 

    The Certificates of each  series will not  represent an obligation of  or
interest  in the  Depositor, Morgan  Stanley &  Co. Incorporated,  any Master
Servicer, any Sub-Servicer  or any of their respective  affiliates, except to
the limited extent described herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement.
Neither the Certificates  nor any assets  in the related  Trust Fund will  be
guaranteed or insured by any governmental agency or instrumentality or by any
other person, unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement.
The assets  in each Trust Fund will  be held in trust for  the benefit of the
holders  of the  related series  of Certificates  pursuant to  a Pooling  and
Servicing Agreement or a Trust Agreement, as more fully described herein. 

    The yield on each class of Certificates of a series will be affected  by,
among other things, the rate  of payment of principal (including prepayments,
repurchase and defaults) on the Mortgage Assets in the related Trust Fund and
the timing of  receipt of such payments as described under the caption "Yield
Considerations" herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement. A Trust Fund
may be subject to early  termination under the circumstances described herein
and in the related Prospectus Supplement. 

    Prospective investors should review  the information appearing under  the
caption "Risk Factors"  herein and such information as may be set forth under
the  caption  "Risk Factors"  in  the  related Prospectus  Supplement  before
purchasing any Offered Certificate. 

    If  so  provided  in  the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  one  or  more
elections may be made to treat the related Trust Fund or a designated portion
thereof as a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" for federal income tax
purposes. See also "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences" herein.

    (b) Principal   . . . . . The Certificates  of each series initially will
                              have  an   aggregate  Certificate  Balance   no
                              greater than the outstanding  principal balance

                              whether  or   not  received.  The   Certificate
                              Balance of a Certificate outstanding  from time
                              to time  represents the maximum amount that the
                              holder thereof is  then entitled to receive  in

                              the  assets in  the related  Trust Fund. Unless

                              the Certificate  Balances of such  Certificates
                              have  been  reduced to  zero. Unless  otherwise
                              specified    in    the    related    Prospectus
                              Supplement, distributions  of principal of  any

                              distributions  in  respect  of  principal.  See
                              "Description of the  Certificates-Distributions

                              make such advances.   Advances made by a Master
                              Servicer   are   reimbursable  generally   from
                              subsequent recoveries  in respect of such Whole

                              Fund  that  includes  MBS  will   describe  any
                              corresponding   advancing  obligation   of  any
                              person  in  connection   with  such   MBS.  See

                              such  person's  interest  except in  the  event
                              that definitive  certificates are issued  under

    Certificates  . . . . . . constitute   either   (i) "regular   interests"
                              ("REMIC  Regular  Certificates") and  "residual
                              interests"  ("REMIC Residual  Certificates") in
                              a   Trust  Fund  treated   as  a   REMIC  under
                              Sections 860A  through  860G  of  the  Code, or
                              (ii) interests  ("Grantor Trust  Certificates")
                              in a  Trust  Fund treated  as  a grantor  trust
                              under applicable provisions of the Code.

    (a) REMIC   . . . . . . . REMIC  Regular Certificates  generally will  be
                              treated as debt  obligations of  the applicable
                              REMIC for federal income tax  purposes. Certain
                              REMIC  Regular Certificates  may be issued with
                              original issue  discount for federal income tax
                              purposes.    See "Certain  Federal  Income  Tax
                              Consequences" in the Prospectus Supplement.

                              A portion  (or, in certain  cases, all)  of the
                              income  from REMIC  Residual  Certificates  (i)
                              may not  be  offset by  any  losses from  other
                              activities  of   the  holder   of  such   REMIC
                              Residual  Certificates, (ii)  may be treated as
                              unrelated business  taxable income for  holders
                              of   REMIC  Residual   Certificates  that   are
                              subject  to tax  on unrelated  business taxable
                              income  (as  defined  in  Section  511  of  the
                              Code),  and  (iii) may  be  subject  to foreign
                              withholding  rules.     See  "Certain   Federal

                              The Offered  Certificates  will  be treated  as
                              (i) assets described in  section 7701(a)(19)(C)
                              of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code  of  1986,  as
                              amended  (the  "Code")  and  (ii) "real  estate
                              assets"   within   the   meaning   of   section
                              856(c)(4)(A) of the Code, in  each case to  the
                              extent described  herein and in the Prospectus.

                              herein and in the Prospectus.

    (b) Grantor Trust   . . . If no election is made to treat  the Trust Fund
                              relating to a  Series of Certificates as a real
                              estate  mortgage investment  conduit ("REMIC"),
                              the Trust Fund  will be classified as a grantor
                              trust and  not as an  association taxable  as a

                                 RISK FACTORS

    Investors should  consider, in  connection with  the purchase  of Offered
Certificates,  among other  things, the following  factors and  certain other
factors as  may be  set forth  in "Risk  Factors" in  the related  Prospectus
Supplement. 

LIMITED LIQUIDITY

    There  can be no  assurance that a secondary  market for the Certificates
of  any series  will develop  or, if it  does develop,  that it  will provide
holders with liquidity  of investment or will continue  while Certificates of
such  series remain  outstanding.    The market  value  of Certificates  will
fluctuate with changes in prevailing rates of interest. Consequently, sale of
Certificates by a holder in any secondary market that may develop may be at a
discount from 100% of their original principal balance or from their purchase
price. Furthermore, secondary market purchasers  may look only hereto, to the
related  Prospectus Supplement  and  to  the  reports  to  Certificateholders
delivered pursuant  to the  related Agreement as  described herein  under the
heading "Description  of the Certificates-Reports to  Certificateholders", "-
Book-Entry  Registration and Definitive Certificates" and "Description of the
Agreements-Evidence  as   to  Compliance"  for  information   concerning  the
Certificates.  Except to  the  extent  described herein  and  in the  related
Prospectus  Supplement, Certificateholders will have no redemption rights and
the Certificates are subject to early retirement only under certain specified
circumstances described  herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement. See
"Description  of   the  Certificates-Termination".   Morgan  Stanley   &  Co.
Incorporated  currently expects  to make  a secondary  market in  the Offered
Certificates, but has no obligation to do so.

LIMITED ASSETS

    The Certificates  will not represent an interest  in or obligation of the
Depositor,  the  Master  Servicer or  any  of  their  affiliates.   The  only
obligations  with respect  to the  Certificates  or the  Assets  will be  the
obligations (if any) of the Warrantying Party (as defined herein) pursuant to
certain  limited  representations and  warranties  made with  respect  to the
Mortgage  Loans, the  Master  Servicer's  and  any  Sub-Servicer's  servicing
obligations  under the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement (including the
limited obligation  to make certain advances in the event of delinquencies on
the Mortgage Loans, but only to the extent deemed recoverable) and, if and to
the extent expressly described in the related  Prospectus Supplement, certain
limited obligations of the Master Servicer in connection with an agreement to
purchase or act as remarketing agent  with respect to a convertible ARM  Loan
(as defined  herein)  upon  conversion  to  a  fixed  rate.    Since  certain
representations and warranties  with respect to the Mortgage  Assets may have
been  made and/or  assigned in  connection  with transfers  of such  Mortgage
Assets  prior  to the  Closing  Date,  the  rights  of the  Trustee  and  the
Certificateholders with respect to such representations or warranties will be
limited to their rights as an assignee thereof. Unless otherwise specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement, none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer
or  any  affiliate   thereof  will  have  any  obligation   with  respect  to
representations or  warranties made  by any  other  entity. Unless  otherwise
specified in the related Prospectus  Supplement, neither the Certificates nor
the  underlying  Mortgage  Assets  will  be  guaranteed  or  insured  by  any
governmental  agency or  instrumentality,  or by  the  Depositor, the  Master
Servicer, any  Sub-Servicer or  any of  their affiliates.    Proceeds of  the
assets included  in the related  Trust Fund  for each series  of Certificates
(including the Assets  and any form of  credit enhancement) will be  the sole
source of payments on the Certificates, and  there will be no recourse to the
Depositor  or  any  other  entity  in  the  event  that  such  proceeds   are
insufficient or otherwise unavailable to make all payments provided for under
the Certificates.

    Unless otherwise  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,  a
series of  Certificates will not have any  claim against or security interest
in  the Trust  Funds  for any  other series.  If  the related  Trust Fund  is
insufficient to make payments on such  Certificates, no other assets will  be
available  for payment  of  the  deficiency.  Additionally,  certain  amounts
remaining in certain funds or accounts, including the Certificate Account and
any accounts  maintained as  Credit Support, may  be withdrawn  under certain
conditions, as described  in the related Prospectus Supplement.  In the event
of such withdrawal, such amounts will not  be available for future payment of
principal  of  or  interest on  the  Certificates.  If  so  provided  in  the
Prospectus Supplement for a series of  Certificates consisting of one or more
classes of Subordinate  Certificates, on any Distribution Date  in respect of
which losses  or shortfalls in collections on  the Assets have been incurred,
the amount  of such losses or shortfalls  will be borne first by  one or more
classes of the  Subordinate Certificates, and,  thereafter, by the  remaining
classes  of Certificates  in  the  priority and  manner  and  subject to  the
limitations specified in such Prospectus Supplement.

AVERAGE LIFE OF CERTIFICATES; PREPAYMENTS; YIELDS

    Prepayments (including those caused  by defaults) on the Mortgage  Assets
in  any Trust  Fund  generally will  result  in a  faster  rate of  principal
payments on one or more classes of the related Certificates than  if payments
on  such  Mortgage  Assets  were  made as  scheduled.  Thus,  the  prepayment
experience on the Mortgage Assets may  affect the average life of each  class
of related Certificates.  The rate of principal payments on pools of mortgage
loans varies between  pools and from time to time is  influenced by a variety
of economic, demographic, geographic,  social, tax, legal and other  factors.
There can be no assurance as to the rate of prepayment on the Mortgage Assets
in any  Trust Fund or  that the rate  of payments  will conform to  any model
described  herein or  in  any Prospectus  Supplement. If  prevailing interest
rates  fall significantly  below  the  applicable  mortgage  interest  rates,
principal prepayments are likely to be higher than if prevailing rates remain
at or above  the rates borne by  the Mortgage Loans underlying  or comprising
the  Mortgage Assets in any  Trust Fund. As a result,  the actual maturity of
any class of Certificates could  occur significantly earlier than expected. A
series of Certificates may include one  or more classes of Certificates  with
priorities  of  payment  and,  as  a  result,  yields  on  other  classes  of
Certificates, including classes of  Offered Certificates, of such  series may
be more sensitive to prepayments on Mortgage Assets. A series of Certificates
may include one or more classes offered at a significant premium or discount.
Yields on such classes  of Certificates will be sensitive, and  in some cases
extremely sensitive, to prepayments on  Mortgage Assets and, where the amount
of interest  payable with respect to  a class is disproportionately  high, as
compared  to the amount  of principal,  as with  certain classes  of Stripped
Interest Certificates, a holder might,  in some prepayment scenarios, fail to
recoup its original investment.  A series of Certificates may  include one or
more classes of Certificates, including classes of Offered Certificates, that
provide for  distribution of principal  thereof from amounts  attributable to
interest accrued but  not currently distributable on  one or more classes  of
Accrual Certificates  and, as a  result, yields on such  Certificates will be
sensitive to (a) the provisions of  such Accrual Certificates relating to the
timing  of  distributions  of  interest  thereon  and  (b)  if  such  Accrual
Certificates accrue  interest at a variable or  adjustable Pass-Through Rate,
changes in such  rate. See "Yield Considerations" herein  and, if applicable,
in the related Prospectus Supplement. 

LIMITED NATURE OF RATINGS

    Any rating assigned by  a Rating Agency to  a class of Certificates  will
reflect such Rating Agency's assessment solely of the likelihood that holders
of  Certificates  of   such  class  will  receive  payments   to  which  such
Certificateholders are entitled under the related Agreement. Such rating will
not  constitute an  assessment of  the likelihood that  principal prepayments
(including  those caused by defaults) on the  related Mortgage Assets will be
made, the degree to which the rate of such prepayments might differ from that
originally anticipated or the likelihood of early optional termination of the
series of  Certificates. Such  rating will not  address the  possibility that
prepayment at higher or lower rates than anticipated by an investor may cause
such  investor  to experience  a  lower  than anticipated  yield  or that  an
investor  purchasing a  Certificate at  a significant  premium might  fail to
recoup  its initial  investment  under  certain  prepayment  scenarios.  Each
Prospectus Supplement will  identify any payment to which  holders of Offered
Certificates of the  related series are entitled  that is not covered  by the
applicable rating. 

    The amount, type  and nature of credit support, if  any, established with
respect  to  a series  of Certificates  will  be determined  on the  basis of
criteria established  by each  Rating Agency rating  classes of  such series.
Such  criteria are sometimes based upon an actuarial analysis of the behavior
of  mortgage loans in a  larger group. Such analysis  is often the basis upon
which each  Rating Agency  determines the amount  of credit  support required
with  respect  to each  such  class.  There  can  be no  assurance  that  the
historical  data supporting  any  such  actuarial  analysis  will  accurately
reflect future  experience nor  any assurance that  the data  derived from  a
large pool of mortgage loans accurately predicts the delinquency, foreclosure
or loss experience of  any particular pool of  Mortgage Assets. No  assurance
can be given  that values of any  Mortgaged Properties have remained  or will
remain at their levels on the respective dates of origination of  the related
Mortgage Loans.  Moreover, there  is no assurance  that appreciation  of real
estate  values  generally  will  limit  loss  experiences  on  the  Mortgaged
Properties.  If  the  single  family residential  real  estate  market should
experience an  overall decline in  property values such that  the outstanding
principal  balances of  the  Mortgage  Loans  underlying  or  comprising  the
Mortgage Assets in a particular Trust Fund and any secondary financing on the
related Mortgaged Properties become equal to or greater than the value of the
Mortgaged Properties,  the rates  of delinquencies,  foreclosures and  losses
could be  higher  than  those  now  generally  experienced  by  institutional
lenders.  In addition,  adverse economic  conditions  (which may  or may  not
affect real property values) may  affect the timely payment by mortgagors  of
scheduled  payments of  principal and  interest  on the  Mortgage Loans  and,
accordingly, the rates of delinquencies, foreclosures and losses with respect
to any  Trust Fund. To  the extent that  such losses  are not covered  by the
Credit Support, if any, described  in the related Prospectus Supplement, such
losses will be borne, at least in part, by the holders of one or more classes
of  the  Certificates of  the  related  series.  See "Description  of  Credit
Support" and "Rating."

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH MORTGAGE LOANS AND MORTGAGED PROPERTIES

    An investment  in securities  such  as the  Certificates which  generally
represent interests in mortgage loans may be affected by, among other things,
a  decline in  real estate  values and changes  in the  mortgagors' financial
condition. No assurance  can be given that values of the Mortgaged Properties
have remained or will  remain at their levels on the  dates of origination of
the related Mortgage  Loans.  If  the residential  real estate market  should
experience an  overall decline in  property values such that  the outstanding
balances of the Mortgage Loans, and any secondary financing on the  Mortgaged
Properties, become  equal to  or  greater than  the  value of  the  Mortgaged
Properties, the actual rates of delinquencies, foreclosures and losses  could
be  higher than  those  now  generally experienced  in  the mortgage  lending
industry. In  addition, in  the case of  Mortgage Loans  that are  subject to
negative amortization, due  to the addition to principal  balance of deferred
interest, the principal balances of such Mortgage Loans could be increased to
an  amount equal to  or in excess  of the  value of the  underlying Mortgaged
Properties, thereby increasing the likelihood  of default. To the extent that
such losses are not covered by the  applicable credit enhancement, holders of
Certificates of the series evidencing interests in the related Mortgage Loans
will bear all risk of loss resulting from default by mortgagors and will have
to look primarily  to the value of  the Mortgaged Properties for  recovery of
the  outstanding principal  and  unpaid interest  on  the defaulted  Mortgage
Loans.  Certain  of  the  types  of Mortgage  Loans  may  involve  additional
uncertainties not present in traditional types of loans. For example, certain
of  the Mortgage  Loans provide for  escalating or  variable payments  by the
mortgagor under  the Mortgage Loan,  as to which  the mortgagor is  generally
qualified on the basis of the initial  payment amount.  In some instances the
Mortgagor's income  may not be sufficient to enable  them to continue to make
their loan payments  as such  payments increase  and thus  the likelihood  of
default  will increase.   In  addition to  the foregoing,  certain geographic
regions  of  the  United States  from  time to  time  will  experience weaker
regional economic  conditions and  housing markets,  and, consequently,  will
experience  higher rates of loss and delinquency  than will be experienced on
mortgage loans  generally. The  Mortgage Loans underlying  certain series  of
Certificates may be concentrated in these regions, and such concentration may
present  risk  considerations in  addition  to  those generally  present  for
similar mortgage-backed securities without such concentration.   Furthermore,
the  rate  of default  on  Mortgage  Loans  that  are  refinance  or  limited
documentation mortgage loans,  and on Mortgage Loans  with high Loan-to-Value
Ratios, may be higher than for other types of Mortgage Loans.   Additionally,
a decline in the value of the  Mortgaged Properties will increase the risk of
loss particularly with  respect to any related junior Mortgage Loans.  See "-
Junior Mortgage Loans."

    If applicable, certain  legal aspects of the Mortgage Loans  for a series
of Certificates  may be described  in the related Prospectus  Supplement. See
also "Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage Loans" herein. 

BALLOON PAYMENTS

    Certain of the  Mortgage Loans (the "Balloon  Mortgage Loans") as of  the
Cut-off Date may  not be fully amortizing  over their terms to  maturity and,
thus, will require substantial principal payments (i.e., balloon payments) at
their stated maturity. Mortgage Loans with balloon payments involve a greater
degree of  risk because the ability of a mortgagor  to make a balloon payment
typically will depend upon its ability either to timely refinance the loan or
to timely sell  the related Mortgaged Property. The ability of a mortgagor to
accomplish  either of these  goals will be  affected by a  number of factors,
including the level of available mortgage interest  rates at the time of sale
or refinancing, the mortgagor's equity in the related Mortgaged Property, the
financial condition of  the mortgagor, tax laws,  prevailing general economic
conditions and the  availability of credit for single  family real properties
generally. 

JUNIOR MORTGAGE LOANS

    Certain  of the Mortgage  Loans may  be secured by  junior liens  and the
related first liens may not  be included in the  Mortgage Pool.  The  primary
risk to holders of Mortgage Loans secured  by junior liens is the possibility
that adequate funds  will not be received in connection with a foreclosure of
the related first lien to satisfy fully both the first lien  and the Mortgage
Loan.  In the event that a holder of the first lien forecloses on a Mortgaged
Property,  the proceeds of  the foreclosure or  similar sale will  be applied
first  to  the payment  of  court  costs  and  fees in  connection  with  the
foreclosure,  second to  real  estate  taxes, third  in  satisfaction of  all
principal, interest,  prepayment or acceleration  penalties, if any,  and any
other sums due and owing to the holder of the first lien.   The claims of the
holder of  the first lien will  be satisfied in  full out of proceeds  of the
liquidation of the Mortgage Loan, if such proceeds are sufficient, before the
Trust  Fund as holder of the junior  lien receives any payments in respect of
the Mortgage Loan.  If the Master Servicer were  to foreclose on any Mortgage
Loan, it would do  so subject to any  related first lien.   In order for  the
debt related to the  Mortgage Loan to be paid in full at  such sale, a bidder
at the foreclosure  sale of such  Mortgage Loan would  have to bid an  amount
sufficient to pay off all sums due under the Mortgage Loan and the first lien
or purchase the Mortgaged Property  subject to the first lien.   In the event
that  such  proceeds from  a  foreclosure  or  similar  sale of  the  related
Mortgaged Property were insufficient to  satisfy both loans in the aggregate,
the Trust  Fund, as the holder of the  junior lien, and, accordingly, holders
of the Certificates,  would bear the risk  of delay in distributions  while a
deficiency judgment against the borrower was  being obtained and the risk  of
loss if the deficiency judgment were not realized upon.  Moreover, deficiency
judgments may not  be available  in certain  jurisdictions.   In addition,  a
junior mortgagee may not foreclose on the property securing a junior mortgage
unless it forecloses subject to the first mortgage.

OBLIGOR DEFAULT

    If  so  specified in  the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  in  order  to
maximize  recoveries  on  defaulted  Whole  Loans, a  Master  Servicer  or  a
Sub-Servicer will be  permitted (within prescribed parameters) to  extend and
modify Whole Loans  that are in default  or as to which a  payment default is
imminent, including  in particular with  respect to balloon payments.   While
any  such  entity generally  will  be  required to  determine  that  any such
extension or modification is reasonably  likely to produce a greater recovery
on a  present value basis  than liquidation, there  can be no  assurance that
such flexibility  with respect to  extensions or modifications  will increase
the  present value of  receipts from or  proceeds of Whole Loans  that are in
default or as to which a payment default is imminent.

CREDIT SUPPORT LIMITATIONS

    The Prospectus Supplement for a series  of Certificates will describe any
Credit  Support in  the  related Trust  Fund, which  may  include letters  of
credit,  insurance policies,  guarantees,  reserve funds  or  other types  of
credit  support, or  combinations  thereof.  Use of  Credit  Support will  be
subject to the conditions and limitations described herein and in the related
Prospectus Supplement.  Moreover,  such  Credit  Support may  not  cover  all
potential losses  or risks; for example, Credit Support  may or may not cover
fraud or negligence by a mortgage loan originator or other parties. 

    A series  of Certificates may include one  or more classes of Subordinate
Certificates (which may include Offered  Certificates), if so provided in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  Although subordination is intended  to reduce
the risk  to holders  of Senior Certificates  of delinquent  distributions or
ultimate losses, the amount of subordination will  be limited and may decline
under certain  circumstances. In  addition, if principal  payments on  one or
more classes of  Certificates of a series  are made in  a specified order  of
priority, any limits with respect to the aggregate amount of claims under any
related Credit Support  may be  exhausted before the  principal of the  lower
priority classes of Certificates of such series has been repaid. As a result,
the impact  of  significant losses  and  shortfalls on  the Assets  may  fall
primarily  upon those  classes of  Certificates  having a  lower priority  of
payment. Moreover, if a form of Credit Support covers more than one series of
Certificates (each, a "Covered Trust"), holders of Certificates evidencing an
interest in  a Covered  Trust will be  subject to the  risk that  such Credit
Support will be exhausted by the claims of other Covered Trusts. 

    The  amount of  any  applicable Credit  Support  supporting one  or  more
classes of Offered  Certificates, including the subordination of  one or more
classes  of  Certificates,  will  be  determined on  the  basis  of  criteria
established by each  Rating Agency rating such classes  of Certificates based
on  an  assumed level  of  defaults,  delinquencies,  other losses  or  other
factors. There can, however, be no assurance  that the loss experience on the
related Mortgage  Assets will not  exceed such assumed levels.  See "-Limited
Nature of  Ratings," "Description  of the Certificates"  and "Description  of
Credit Support." 

    Regardless of  the form  of credit  enhancement provided,  the amount  of
coverage  will be  limited in amount  and in  most cases  will be  subject to
periodic  reduction in  accordance with  a  schedule or  formula. The  Master
Servicer will generally  be permitted to reduce, terminate  or substitute all
or a portion of the credit enhancement for any series of Certificates, if the
applicable Rating Agency indicates that the then-current rating  thereof will
not be adversely  affected. The rating of  any series of Certificates  by any
applicable Rating  Agency  may  be lowered  following  the  initial  issuance
thereof as a result of the  downgrading of the obligations of any  applicable
credit  support provider, or  as a result  of losses on  the related Mortgage
Assets  substantially in  excess of  the levels  contemplated by  such Rating
Agency at the time of  its initial rating analysis.   None of the  Depositor,
the Master Servicer  or any of their  affiliates will have any  obligation to
replace or supplement any credit enhancement, or  to take any other action to
maintain any rating of any series of Certificates.

SUBORDINATION OF THE SUBORDINATE CERTIFICATES; EFFECT OF LOSSES ON THE ASSETS

    The rights  of Subordinate Certificateholders to receive distributions to
which they would  otherwise be entitled  with respect to  the Assets will  be
subordinate  to the  rights of the  Master Servicer  (to the extent  that the
Master Servicer  is paid  its servicing fee,  including any  unpaid servicing
fees with  respect to one  or more prior Due  Periods, and is  reimbursed for
certain  unreimbursed advances and unreimbursed liquidation expenses) and the
Senior Certificateholders to the extent described herein.  As a result of the
foregoing, investors  must be  prepared to  bear the  risk that  they may  be
subject to delays in payment and may not recover their initial investments in
the  Subordinate  Certificates.    See  "Description  of  the  Certificates--
General" and "--Allocation of Losses and Shortfalls."

    The yields on the Subordinate Certificates  may be extremely sensitive to
the loss experience of the Assets and the timing of any such  losses.  If the
actual rate and  amount of losses experienced  by the Assets exceed  the rate
and amount of such losses assumed by  an investor, the yields to maturity  on
the Subordinate Certificates may be lower than anticipated.

ENFORCEABILITY

    Mortgages may contain  a due-on-sale clause, which permits the  lender to
accelerate  the  maturity  of  the  Mortgage Loan  if  the  mortgagor  sells,
transfers  or conveys the related  Mortgaged Property or  its interest in the
Mortgaged  Property. Mortgages may  also include a  debt-acceleration clause,
which  permits  the  lender  to  accelerate  the  debt  upon  a  monetary  or
non-monetary  default  of  the   mortgagor.    Such  clauses   are  generally
enforceable  subject to  certain exceptions.  The courts  of all  states will
enforce clauses providing for acceleration in the event of a material payment
default. The  equity courts of any state, however, may refuse the foreclosure
of a mortgage or deed of trust when an acceleration of the indebtedness would
be inequitable or  unjust or the circumstances would  render the acceleration
unconscionable. 

ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

    Generally, ERISA  applies to investments  made by employee  benefit plans
and transactions involving the assets of such plans. Due to the complexity of
regulations  which govern such plans,  prospective investors that are subject
to ERISA are urged to consult their own counsel regarding consequences  under
ERISA of acquisition, ownership and  disposition of the Offered  Certificates
of any series.   In particular, investors that are insurance companies should
consult with  their counsel with respect  to the United States  Supreme Court
case, John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Co. v. Harris Trust &  Savings Bank.
See "ERISA Considerations."

CERTAIN   FEDERAL  INCOME   TAX  CONSIDERATIONS   REGARDING  REMIC   RESIDUAL
CERTIFICATES

    Except  as  provided  in   the  Prospectus  Supplement,  REMIC   Residual
Certificates, if offered hereunder, are anticipated to have "phantom  income"
associated with them.  That is, taxable income is anticipated to be allocated
to the REMIC Residual Certificates in the early years of the existence of the
related  REMIC,  even   if  the  REMIC   Residual  Certificates  receive   no
distributions from the  related REMIC, with a corresponding  amount of losses
allocated to  the REMIC Residual  Certificates in later years.   Accordingly,
the  present value of the  tax detriments associated  with the REMIC Residual
Certificates may significantly  exceed the present value of  the tax benefits
related  thereto, and  the REMIC  Residual Certificates  may have  a negative
"value."    Moreover, the  REMIC  Residual  Certificates  will in  effect  be
allocated an amount of gross income equal to the non-interest expenses of the
REMIC, but such expenses will be deductible by holders of the  REMIC Residual
Certificates that are individuals only as itemized deductions (and be subject
to  all the  limitations  applicable to  itemized deductions).   Accordingly,
investment in the REMIC Residual  Certificates will generally not be suitable
for individuals or for certain pass-through entities, such as partnerships or
S  corporations, that  have  individuals  as partners  or  shareholders.   In
addition,  REMIC Residual Certificates are subject to certain restrictions on
transfer.  Finally,  prospective purchasers of  a REMIC Residual  Certificate
should be aware  that recently issued final  regulations provide restrictions
on the  ability  to mark-to-market  certain "negative  value" REMIC  residual
interests. See "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences--REMICs."

CONTROL

    Under certain circumstances, the consent or approval  of the holders of a
specified  percentage of the aggregate Certificate Balance of all outstanding
Certificates of  a series  or a similar  means of  allocating decision-making
under the related Agreement ("Voting Rights") will be required to direct, and
will be sufficient  to bind all Certificateholders of such series to, certain
actions, including directing  the Master Servicer with respect  to actions to
be  taken  with respect  to  certain Mortgage  Loans and  REO  Properties and
amending the related Agreement in  certain circumstances. See "Description of
the  Agreements-Events  of  Default," "-Rights  Upon  Event  of Default,"  "-
Amendment" and "-List of Certificateholders."

BOOK-ENTRY REGISTRATION

    If so provided  in the Prospectus Supplement, one or  more classes of the
Certificates  will be  initially  represented  by  one or  more  certificates
registered  in  the name  of  Cede, the  nominee  for DTC,  and  will  not be
registered in the names of  the Certificateholders or their nominees. Because
of   this,   unless   and   until   Definitive   Certificates   are   issued,
Certificateholders   will   not    be   recognized   by   the    Trustee   as
"Certificateholders" (as that  term is to be used  in the related Agreement).
Hence,  until such  time, Certificateholders  will  be able  to exercise  the
rights   of  Certificateholders   only  indirectly   through   DTC  and   its
participating organizations. See  "Description of the Certificates-Book-Entry
Registration and Definitive Certificates." 

                        DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUST FUNDS

ASSETS

    The  primary  assets of  each  Trust  Fund (the  "Assets")  will  include
(i) single  family  mortgage  loans  (the  "Mortgage  Loans"),  (ii) mortgage
participations, pass-through certificates or other mortgage-backed securities
evidencing interests in  or secured by  one or more  Mortgage Loans or  other
similar  participations,  certificates  or securities  ("MBS"),  (iii) direct
obligations  of  the United  States,  agencies  thereof or  agencies  created
thereby which are not  subject to redemption prior to maturity  at the option
of  the issuer  and  are (a)  interest-bearing securities,  (b) non-interest-
bearing  securities, (c)  originally interest-bearing  securities from  which
coupons representing the  right to payment of interest have  been removed, or
(d) interest-bearing securities from which  the right to payment of principal
has been  removed  (the "Government  Securities"), or  (iv) a combination  of
Mortgage Loans,  MBS and  Government  Securities. As  used herein,  "Mortgage
Loans" refers to both whole Mortgage Loans and Mortgage Loans underlying MBS.
Mortgage Loans  that secure, or interests in which  are evidenced by, MBS are
herein sometimes referred  to as  Underlying Mortgage  Loans. Mortgage  Loans
that  are not Underlying  Mortgage Loans are sometimes  referred to as "Whole
Loans."  Any  mortgage  participations,  pass-through certificates  or  other
asset-backed  certificates in  which an  MBS evidences  an interest  or which
secure an MBS are sometimes referred to  herein also as MBS or as "Underlying
MBS." Mortgage  Loans and MBS are  sometimes referred to herein  as "Mortgage
Assets." The Mortgage  Assets will  not be  guaranteed or  insured by  Morgan
Stanley Capital I  Inc. (the "Depositor") or any of its affiliates or, unless
otherwise provided in  the Prospectus Supplement, by  any governmental agency
or instrumentality or by any other person. Each Asset will be selected by the
Depositor for inclusion in  a Trust Fund from  among those purchased,  either
directly  or indirectly,  from a  prior holder  thereof (an  "Asset Seller"),
which may be  an affiliate  of the  Depositor and, with  respect to  Mortgage
Assets, which prior holder may or may not be the originator of such  Mortgage
Loan or the issuer of such MBS.

    Unless otherwise  specified  in the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  the
Certificates will be entitled to payment only  from the assets of the related
Trust Fund and will not  be entitled to payments in respect of  the assets of
any other  trust fund  established  by the  Depositor.  If specified  in  the
related Prospectus Supplement,  the assets  of a Trust  Fund will consist  of
certificates  representing beneficial  ownership interests  in another  trust
fund that contains the Assets.

MORTGAGE LOANS

General

    Unless otherwise  specified  in the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  the
Mortgage  Loans  will  be  secured  by  (i)  liens  on  Mortgaged  Properties
consisting of  one- to four-family  residential properties  or (ii)  security
interests  in shares  issued  by  private  cooperative  housing  corporations
("Cooperatives")  or  (ii)  Mortgaged  Properties located,  unless  otherwise
specified in  the  related Prospectus  Supplement, in  any one  of the  fifty
states, the  District of Columbia or the Commonwealth  of Puerto Rico. To the
extent  specified in  the related Prospectus  Supplement, the  Mortgage Loans
will  be secured by first and/or junior mortgages  or deeds of trust or other
similar security  instruments creating  a first or  junior lien  on Mortgaged
Property.   The  Mortgaged  Properties   may  include  apartments   owned  by
Cooperatives.   The Mortgaged Properties  may include leasehold  interests in
properties,  the  title  to which  is  held by  third  party  lessors. Unless
otherwise  specified in  the  Prospectus  Supplement, the  term  of any  such
leasehold shall exceed the term of the related mortgage note by at least five
years.  Each  Mortgage Loan  will  have  been  originated  by a  person  (the
"Originator") other  than the  Depositor. The  related Prospectus  Supplement
will  indicate  if any  Originator  is an  affiliate  of  the Depositor.  The
Mortgage Loans will  be evidenced by promissory notes  (the "Mortgage Notes")
secured by mortgages or  deeds of trust (the "Mortgages") creating  a lien on
the Mortgaged Properties.

Loan-to-Value Ratio

    The  "Loan-to-Value Ratio" of  a Mortgage Loan  at any given  time is the
ratio (expressed as  a percentage) of the then  outstanding principal balance
of  the Mortgage  Loan to the  Value of  the related Mortgaged  Property. The
"Value" of a Mortgaged Property, other than with  respect to Refinance Loans,
is generally the lesser of (a) the appraised value determined in an appraisal
obtained  by the  originator at  origination of such  loan and  (b) the sales
price  for such  property.  "Refinance  Loans" are  loans  made to  refinance
existing  loans.  Unless  otherwise  set  forth  in  the  related  Prospectus
Supplement, the Value of the Mortgaged Property  securing a Refinance Loan is
the  appraised value thereof determined in  an appraisal obtained at the time
of origination of the Refinance Loan. The Value of a Mortgaged Property as of
the date  of initial issuance  of the related  series of Certificates  may be
less than the value at origination and will fluctuate from time to time based
upon changes in economic conditions and the real estate market. 

Mortgage Loan Information in Prospectus Supplements

    Each Prospectus  Supplement will contain information,  as of the  date of
such Prospectus Supplement and to the extent then applicable and specifically
known to the Depositor, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, including (i) the
aggregate outstanding principal balance and the largest, smallest and average
outstanding  principal balance  of the  Mortgage Loans  as of  the applicable
Cut-off  Date,  (ii) the  type  of  property  securing  the  Mortgage  Loans,
(iii) the  weighted  average  (by  principal  balance)  of  the original  and
remaining  terms to  maturity of  the Mortgage  Loans, (iv) the  earliest and
latest  origination date  and maturity  date of  the Mortgage  Loans, (v) the
weighted  average  (by principal  balance)  of  the Loan-to-Value  Ratios  at
origination  of the  Mortgage  Loans,  (vi) the Mortgage  Rates  or range  of
Mortgage Rates and the weighted average  Mortgage Rate borne by the  Mortgage
Loans, (vii) the  state or states in  which most of the  Mortgaged Properties
are located, (viii) information with respect to the prepayment provisions, if
any, of the  Mortgage Loans, (ix) the weighted average  Retained Interest, if
any, (x) with respect to Mortgage  Loans with adjustable Mortgage Rates ("ARM
Loans"),  the index,  the frequency  of  the adjustment  dates, the  highest,
lowest  and weighted  average note  margin and  pass-through margin,  and the
maximum  Mortgage Rate  or  monthly  payment variation  at  the  time of  any
adjustment thereof  and over the  life of the ARM  Loan and the  frequency of
such  monthly payment adjustments, and (xi) information regarding the payment
characteristics of the  Mortgage Loans, including without  limitation balloon
payment  and  other   amortization  provisions.    If   specific  information
respecting the  Mortgage Loans  is not  known to  the Depositor  at the  time
Certificates are  initially offered, more  general information of  the nature
described above will  be provided in the Prospectus  Supplement, and specific
information  will  be  set forth  in  a  report which  will  be  available to
purchasers  of the  related Certificates  at or  before the  initial issuance
thereof and will be  filed as part of a  Current Report on Form 8-K with  the
Securities and  Exchange Commission  within fifteen  days after such  initial
issuance. 

Payment Provisions of the Mortgage Loans

    Unless otherwise specified  in the related Prospectus Supplement,  all of
the Mortgage Loans will (i) have individual principal balances at origination
of not less  than $25,000, (ii) have original  terms to maturity of  not more
than 40 years and (iii) provide for payments of principal, interest or  both,
on due dates that occur monthly, quarterly  or semi-annually or at such other
interval as is specified in  the related Prospectus Supplement. Each Mortgage
Loan  may provide  for no  accrual  of interest  or for  accrual  of interest
thereon at  an interest rate (a "Mortgage Rate") that  is fixed over its term
or  that  adjusts  from time  to  time,  or that  may  be  converted  from an
adjustable to  a  fixed Mortgage  Rate,  or from  a  fixed to  an  adjustable
Mortgage Rate, from  time to  time pursuant  to an election  or as  otherwise
specified  on the  related Mortgage Note,  in each  case as described  in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  Each Mortgage Loan may provide  for scheduled
payments to maturity or payments that adjust from time to time to accommodate
changes in the  Mortgage Rate or to reflect the occurrence of certain events,
and  may provide for  negative amortization  or accelerated  amortization, in
each case  as described in  the related Prospectus Supplement.  Each Mortgage
Loan may be fully amortizing or require  a balloon payment due on its  stated
maturity  date,  in  each  case   as  described  in  the  related  Prospectus
Supplement.  Each  Mortgage Loan  may contain  prohibitions on  prepayment (a
"Lock-out  Period" and, the date of expiration thereof, a "Lock-out Date") or
require payment of  a premium or a  yield maintenance penalty  (a "Prepayment
Premium") in connection with  a prepayment, in each case as  described in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  In the  event that  holders of  any class  or
classes of Offered Certificates  will be entitled to all or  a portion of any
Prepayment  Premiums  collected in  respect  of Mortgage  Loans,  the related
Prospectus Supplement  will specify the method  or methods by  which any such
amounts will be allocated. 

MBS

    Any MBS will have  been issued pursuant to a  participation and servicing
agreement, a pooling and servicing agreement, a trust agreement, an indenture
or similar agreement (an "MBS Agreement"). A seller (the "MBS Issuer") and/or
servicer (the "MBS Servicer") of the underlying Mortgage Loans (or Underlying
MBS) will have entered into the  MBS Agreement with a trustee or  a custodian
under  the MBS Agreement  (the "MBS Trustee"),  if any, or  with the original
purchaser of the interest in  the underlying Mortgage Loans or  MBS evidenced
by the MBS. 

    Distributions of any  principal or interest, as applicable, will  be made
on MBS on the dates specified  in the related Prospectus Supplement. The  MBS
may be  issued in  one or more  classes with  characteristics similar  to the
classes of  Certificates  described  in this  Prospectus.  Any  principal  or
interest distributions will be made on the MBS by the  MBS Trustee or the MBS
Servicer. The  MBS Issuer or the MBS Servicer  or another person specified in
the  related  Prospectus Supplement  may  have  the  right or  obligation  to
repurchase or substitute assets  underlying the MBS  after a certain date  or
under other circumstances specified in the related Prospectus Supplement. 

    Enhancement in  the form of reserve  funds, subordination or  other forms
of  credit support  similar  to  that described  for  the Certificates  under
"Description of Credit Support" may be provided  with respect to the MBS. The
type, characteristics and  amount of such credit  support, if any, will  be a
function of certain  characteristics of the Mortgage Loans  or Underlying MBS
evidenced by or securing  such MBS and other factors and  generally will have
been established  for the  MBS on  the basis  of requirements  of either  any
Rating Agency  that may have  assigned a  rating to  the MBS  or the  initial
purchasers of the MBS. 

    The  Prospectus  Supplement  for  a  series  of  Certificates  evidencing
interests in  Mortgage Assets that  include MBS  will specify, to  the extent
available, (i) the  aggregate approximate  initial and outstanding  principal
amount  or notional amount, as applicable, and type of the MBS to be included
in the Trust Fund, (ii) the original and remaining term to stated maturity of
the MBS, if applicable, (iii) whether such  MBS is entitled only to  interest
payments, only  to principal payments  or to  both, (iv) the  pass-through or
bond rate of the MBS  or formula for determining such rates,  if any, (v) the
applicable payment provisions for the MBS, including, but not limited to, any
priorities,  payment  schedules  and  subordination  features,  (vi) the  MBS
Issuer,   MBS  Servicer  and   MBS  Trustee,  as   applicable,  (vii) certain
characteristics of the credit support, if any, such as subordination, reserve
funds, insurance  policies, letters of  credit or guarantees relating  to the
related Underlying  Mortgage Loans,  the Underlying MBS  or directly  to such
MBS,  (viii) the terms  on which  the  related Underlying  Mortgage Loans  or
Underlying MBS for such MBS or the MBS  may, or are required to, be purchased
prior to their maturity, (ix) the terms on which Mortgage Loans or Underlying
MBS  may be  substituted for  those  originally underlying  the MBS,  (x) the
servicing fees payable under the  MBS Agreement, (xi) the type of information
in respect of the Underlying Mortgage Loans described under "-Mortgage Loans-
Mortgage Loan Information  in Prospectus Supplements" above, and  the type of
information in  respect of  the Underlying MBS  described in  this paragraph,
(xii) the characteristics  of any cash  flow agreements that are  included as
part of the trust fund evidenced or secured by the MBS and (xiii) whether the
MBS  is in certificated  form, book-entry form  or held  through a depository
such as The Depository Trust Company or the Participants Trust Company. 

GOVERNMENT SECURITIES

    The  Prospectus  Supplement  for  a  series  of  Certificates  evidencing
interests  in Assets of a Trust  Fund that include Government Securities will
specify, to the  extent available, (i) the aggregate  approximate initial and
outstanding principal amounts or  notional amounts, as applicable, and  types
of the  Government Securities  to be  included in  the Trust  Fund, (ii)  the
original and remaining terms to stated maturity of the Government Securities,
(iii) whether  such  Government  Securities  are entitled  only  to  interest
payments, only  to principal payments or to both,  (iv) the interest rates of
the Government Securities or the formula to determine such rates, if any, (v)
the applicable payment  provisions for the Government Securities  and (vi) to
what extent,  if any, the obligation evidenced thereby  is backed by the full
faith and credit of the United States.

ACCOUNTS

    Each  Trust  Fund will  include  one  or more  accounts  established  and
maintained  on behalf  of the  Certificateholders  into which  the person  or
persons designated in  the related Prospectus Supplement will,  to the extent
described herein and  in such Prospectus Supplement deposit  all payments and
collections  received or advanced with respect to the Assets and other assets
in the  Trust Fund. Such an account may  be maintained as an interest bearing
or a non-interest bearing account, and funds held therein may be held as cash
or invested in certain short-term, investment grade obligations, in each case
as described  in the related  Prospectus Supplement. See "Description  of the
Agreement-Certificate Account and Other Collection Accounts."

CREDIT SUPPORT

    If so  provided in  the related  Prospectus Supplement,  partial or  full
protection against  certain defaults and losses on  the Assets in the related
Trust Fund may  be provided to  one or  more classes of  Certificates in  the
related series in the form  of subordination of one or more  other classes of
Certificates in such series or by one or more other types of credit  support,
such as a  letter of  credit, insurance  policy, guarantee,  reserve fund  or
another  type of credit support, or  a combination thereof (any such coverage
with respect to the Certificates of any series, "Credit Support"). The amount
and  types  of coverage,  the  identification  of  the entity  providing  the
coverage (if applicable) and related information with respect to each type of
Credit Support, if any, will be described  in the Prospectus Supplement for a
series of  Certificates. See  "Risk Factors-Credit  Support Limitations"  and
"Description of Credit Support." 

CASH FLOW AGREEMENTS

    If so provided in  the related Prospectus Supplement, the Trust  Fund may
include guaranteed investment contracts pursuant  to which moneys held in the
funds and  accounts established for the related series  will be invested at a
specified rate.  The Trust  Fund may also  include certain  other agreements,
such  as  interest rate  exchange  agreements,  interest  rate cap  or  floor
agreements,  currency exchange agreements  or similar agreements  provided to
reduce the effects of interest rate or currency exchange rate fluctuations on
the  Assets or  on one or  more classes  of Certificates.  (Currency exchange
agreements might be included in the Trust Fund if some or all of the Mortgage
Assets  (such  as  Mortgage Loans  secured  by  Mortgaged Properties  located
outside the United States) were denominated in a non-United States currency.)
The  principal terms  of any  such  guaranteed investment  contract or  other
agreement  (any such agreement, a  "Cash Flow Agreement"), including, without
limitation, provisions relating to the  timing, manner and amount of payments
thereunder  and  provisions  relating  to the  termination  thereof,  will be
described in the  Prospectus Supplement for the related  series. In addition,
the  related  Prospectus  Supplement will  provide  certain  information with
respect to the obligor under any such Cash Flow Agreement. 

                               USE OF PROCEEDS

    The net proceeds to  be received from the  sale of the Certificates  will
be applied by the Depositor to the purchase  of Assets and to pay for certain
expenses incurred  in connection with  such purchase  of Assets  and sale  of
Certificates. The  Depositor expects  to sell the  Certificates from  time to
time, but the timing and amount of offerings of Certificates will depend on a
number of factors, including  the volume of Assets acquired by the Depositor,
prevailing  interest  rates,   availability  of  funds  and   general  market
conditions. 

                             YIELD CONSIDERATIONS

GENERAL

    The yield  on any Offered  Certificate will depend  on the price  paid by
the Certificateholder, the Pass-Through Rate  of the Certificate, the receipt
and timing  of receipt of distributions  on the Certificate  and the weighted
average  life of the Assets in the related  Trust Fund (which may be affected
by prepayments, defaults, liquidations or repurchases). See "Risk Factors."

PASS-THROUGH RATE

    Certificates of any  class within a  series may  have fixed, variable  or
adjustable  Pass-Through  Rates, which  may  or  may not  be  based upon  the
interest rates borne  by the Assets in the related Trust Fund. The Prospectus
Supplement  with respect  to  any  series of  Certificates  will specify  the
Pass-Through Rate for  each class of such  Certificates or, in the  case of a
variable  or adjustable  Pass-Through  Rate, the  method  of determining  the
Pass-Through Rate;  the effect,  if any,  of the prepayment  of any  Mortgage
Asset on the  Pass-Through Rate of one  or more classes of  Certificates; and
whether the distributions  of interest on the Certificates of  any class will
be dependent, in whole or in part, on the performance  of any obligor under a
Cash Flow Agreement. 

    The effective yield  to maturity to each holder of  Certificates entitled
to  payments  of interest  will  be  below  that  otherwise produced  by  the
applicable Pass-Through  Rate and purchase price of such Certificate because,
while interest  may  accrue  on  each Asset  during  a  certain  period,  the
distribution of  such interest will  be made  on a day  which may  be several
days, weeks or months following the period of accrual.

TIMING OF PAYMENT OF INTEREST

    Each  payment  of  interest  on the  Certificates  (or  addition  to  the
Certificate Balance  of a  class of Accrual  Certificates) on  a Distribution
Date will  include interest  accrued during the  Interest Accrual  Period for
such Distribution Date. As indicated above under "-The Pass-Through Rate," if
the Interest Accrual Period ends on a date other than a Distribution Date for
the related  series, the yield  realized by the holders  of such Certificates
may be lower than the  yield that would result if the Interest Accrual Period
ended on such Distribution Date. In addition,  if so specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement,  interest accrued for  an Interest Accrual  Period for
one or more classes of Certificates may be calculated on the  assumption that
distributions  of  principal (and  additions  to the  Certificate  Balance of
Accrual Certificates) and  allocations of losses on the Assets may be made on
the first day of the Interest Accrual Period for  a Distribution Date and not
on such Distribution  Date. Such method would produce a lower effective yield
than if interest  were calculated on the basis of the actual principal amount
outstanding  during an Interest  Accrual Period. The  Interest Accrual Period
for  any class  of  Offered Certificates  will  be described  in the  related
Prospectus Supplement. 

PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL; PREPAYMENTS

    The yield to maturity  on the Certificates will  be affected by the  rate
of  principal  payments on  the  Assets (including  principal  prepayments on
Mortgage Loans  resulting from both  voluntary prepayments by  the mortgagors
and  involuntary liquidations). The rate at which principal prepayments occur
on the Mortgage  Loans will be affected  by a variety of  factors, including,
without limitation, the terms of the Mortgage  Loans, the level of prevailing
interest  rates,   the  availability   of  mortgage   credit  and   economic,
demographic, geographic,  tax, legal and other factors.  In general, however,
if prevailing interest  rates fall significantly below the  Mortgage Rates on
the Mortgage Loans comprising  or underlying the Assets in a particular Trust
Fund, such Mortgage  Loans are likely to  be the subject of  higher principal
prepayments than if  prevailing rates remain at  or above the rates  borne by
such Mortgage  Loans. In this regard, it should  be noted that certain Assets
may  consist of Mortgage Loans  with different Mortgage  Rates and the stated
pass-through or pay-through interest rate of  certain MBS may be a number  of
percentage points  higher or  lower than certain  of the  underlying Mortgage
Loans. The  rate of  principal payments  on some  or all  of  the classes  of
Certificates of a series will correspond to the rate of principal payments on
the Assets  in the  related Trust Fund  and is likely  to be affected  by the
existence  of  Lock-out  Periods and  Prepayment  Premium  provisions of  the
Mortgage Loans underlying  or comprising  such Assets, and  by the extent  to
which  the  servicer  of any  such  Mortgage  Loan is  able  to  enforce such
provisions. Mortgage  Loans with  a Lock-out Period  or a  Prepayment Premium
provision,  to  the  extent  enforceable,  generally  would  be  expected  to
experience a  lower rate  of principal prepayments  than otherwise  identical
Mortgage Loans without such provisions, with shorter Lock-out Periods or with
lower Prepayment Premiums. 

    If the  purchaser of a  Certificate offered at a  discount calculates its
anticipated yield to maturity  based on an  assumed rate of distributions  of
principal that  is faster than that  actually experienced on  the Assets, the
actual  yield to maturity will be lower  than that so calculated. Conversely,
if  the purchaser  of  a  Certificate offered  at  a  premium calculates  its
anticipated  yield to maturity  based on an assumed  rate of distributions of
principal that is  slower than that  actually experienced on the  Assets, the
actual yield  to maturity will  be lower than  that so calculated.  In either
case,  if  so   provided  in  the  Prospectus  Supplement  for  a  series  of
Certificates, the effect on yield on one  or more classes of the Certificates
of such  series of prepayments of the Assets in the related Trust Fund may be
mitigated  or  exacerbated by  any  provisions  for sequential  or  selective
distribution of principal to such classes. 

    When  a full  prepayment is  made on  a Mortgage  Loan, the  mortgagor is
charged interest on the principal amount of  the Mortgage Loan so prepaid for
the number  of days  in the  month actually  elapsed up  to the  date of  the
prepayment.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
the effect of  prepayments in full will  be to reduce the  amount of interest
paid in the following month to  holders of Certificates entitled to  payments
of interest because interest on the principal amount of any Mortgage  Loan so
prepaid will be paid  only to the date of  prepayment rather than for a  full
month. Unless  otherwise specified in  the related  Prospectus Supplement,  a
partial prepayment of principal  is applied so  as to reduce the  outstanding
principal balance  of the related  Mortgage Loan  as of the  Due Date in  the
month  in which  such partial  prepayment is  received. As  a  result, unless
otherwise specified  in the  related Prospectus Supplement,  the effect  of a
partial  prepayment  on a  Mortgage  Loan will  be  to reduce  the  amount of
interest passed through to holders of Certificates in the month following the
receipt of such partial prepayment by an amount equal to one month's interest
at the applicable Pass-Through Rate on the prepaid amount.

    The timing of  changes in the rate of principal  payments on the Mortgage
Assets may significantly affect an  investor's actual yield to maturity, even
if  the average  rate of  distributions  of principal  is consistent  with an
investor's  expectation.  In  general,  the earlier  a  principal  payment is
received on the Mortgage Assets and distributed on a Certificate, the greater
the effect on  such investor's yield to maturity. The effect on an investor's
yield of principal  payments occurring at a  rate higher (or lower)  than the
rate anticipated by the investor during a given period may not be offset by a
subsequent like decrease (or increase) in the rate of principal payments. 

PREPAYMENTS-MATURITY AND WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE

    The  rates  at  which  principal payments  are  received  on  the  Assets
included  in or comprising a  Trust Fund and  the rate at  which payments are
made from any Credit Support or Cash Flow Agreement for the related series of
Certificates may affect  the ultimate maturity and the  weighted average life
of each class of such series. Prepayments on the Mortgage Loans comprising or
underlying  the Mortgage  Assets in  a particular  Trust Fund  will generally
accelerate the rate at which principal is paid on some or all  of the classes
of the Certificates of the related series. 

    If  so   provided  in   the  Prospectus  Supplement   for  a  series   of
Certificates, one or more classes of Certificates may have  a final scheduled
Distribution  Date, which is  the date on  or prior to  which the Certificate
Balance thereof is scheduled  to be reduced to zero, calculated  on the basis
of the assumptions applicable to such series set forth therein. 

    Weighted average  life refers  to the  average amount  of time  that will
elapse from the date of issue of a security until each dollar of principal of
such security will be repaid to the investor. The weighted average life of  a
class of Certificates  of a series will  be influenced by  the rate at  which
principal on the Mortgage Loans  comprising or underlying the Mortgage Assets
is paid to such class, which may be in the form of scheduled amortization  or
prepayments (for this purpose, the term "prepayment" includes prepayments, in
whole or in part, and liquidations due to default). 

    In  addition,  the weighted  average  life  of the  Certificates  may  be
affected  by the  varying  maturities  of the  Mortgage  Loans comprising  or
underlying the MBS. If any Mortgage Loans comprising or underlying the Assets
in  a particular Trust Fund have actual terms  to maturity of less than those
assumed in calculating final scheduled  Distribution Dates for the classes of
Certificates of the  related series, one or more classes of such Certificates
may  be fully  paid prior  to their  respective final  scheduled Distribution
Dates,  even  in  the absence  of  prepayments.  Accordingly,  the prepayment
experience of the  Assets will, to some  extent, be a function of  the mix of
Mortgage Rates and maturities of  the Mortgage Loans comprising or underlying
such Assets. See "Description of the Trust Funds." 

    Prepayments on loans are also commonly  measured relative to a prepayment
standard or  model, such as  the Constant Prepayment Rate  ("CPR") prepayment
model or the Standard Prepayment Assumption ("SPA") prepayment model, each as
described below.  CPR represents a  constant assumed rate of  prepayment each
month relative to the then outstanding  principal balance of a pool of  loans
for the life of such loans. SPA represents an assumed rate of prepayment each
month relative to the then outstanding principal  balance of a pool of loans.
A prepayment assumption of 100% of  SPA assumes prepayment rates of 0.2%  per
annum of the  then outstanding principal balance  of such loans in  the first
month of the life of the loans and an additional 0.2% per annum in each month
thereafter until the thirtieth month. Beginning in the thirtieth month and in
each month  thereafter during the  life of the loans,  100% of SPA  assumes a
constant prepayment rate of 6% per annum each month. 

    Neither  CPR  nor  SPA  nor any  other  prepayment  model  or  assumption
purports  to  be a  historical  description  of  prepayment experience  or  a
prediction  of the  anticipated  rate of  prepayment of  any  pool of  loans,
including the Mortgage Loans underlying or comprising the Mortgage Assets.

    In general,  if interest rates  fall below  the Mortgage Rates  on fixed-
rate Mortgage Loans, the rate of prepayment would be expected to increase.

    The  Prospectus Supplement  with respect to  each series  of Certificates
will  contain tables,  if applicable,  setting forth  the projected  weighted
average life of  each class of  Offered Certificates of  such series and  the
percentage of the initial  Certificate Balance of each such  class that would
be outstanding  on  specified Distribution  Dates  based on  the  assumptions
stated  in such Prospectus Supplement, including assumptions that prepayments
on the Mortgage Loans comprising or underlying the related Assets are made at
rates corresponding to various percentages of CPR, SPA or at such other rates
specified in  such Prospectus  Supplement.  Such tables  and assumptions  are
intended  to illustrate  the  sensitivity  of weighted  average  life of  the
Certificates to various prepayment  rates and will not be intended to predict
or to  provide information that will  enable investors to predict  the actual
weighted average life of the Certificates. It is  unlikely that prepayment of
any  Mortgage Loans  comprising or  underlying  the Mortgage  Assets for  any
series will conform to  any particular level  of CPR, SPA  or any other  rate
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement. 

OTHER FACTORS AFFECTING WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE

Type of Mortgage Asset

    If  so  specified in  the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  a  number  of
Mortgage  Loans may have  balloon payments due  at maturity,  and because the
ability of a mortgagor to make  a balloon payment typically will depend  upon
its  ability either to  refinance the loan  or to sell  the related Mortgaged
Property, there is  a risk  that a  number of Mortgage  Loans having  balloon
payments  may default  at  maturity. In  the case  of  defaults, recovery  of
proceeds may be delayed  by, among other things, bankruptcy of  the mortgagor
or adverse conditions in  the market where the property is  located. In order
to minimize  losses on  defaulted Mortgage Loans,  the servicer  may, to  the
extent  and under  the  circumstances  set forth  in  the related  Prospectus
Supplement, be permitted to  modify Mortgage Loans that are in  default or as
to which  a payment  default is  imminent. Any  defaulted balloon  payment or
modification that extends the maturity of a Mortgage Loan will tend to extend
the weighted average life of the Certificates, thereby lengthening the period
of  time elapsed  from the  date of  issuance of  a  Certificate until  it is
retired.

    With  respect  to  certain  Mortgage  Loans,  including  ARM  Loans,  the
Mortgage Rate at origination may be below  the rate that would result if  the
index  and margin  relating thereto  were applied  at origination.  Under the
applicable underwriting  standards, the  mortgagor under  each Mortgage  Loan
generally will be  qualified on the basis of  the Mortgage Rate in  effect at
origination. The repayment of any such Mortgage Loan may thus be dependent on
the ability of the mortgagor to make larger  level monthly payments following
the adjustment of the Mortgage Rate. In addition, certain Mortgage  Loans may
be subject to temporary buydown  plans ("Buydown Mortgage Loans") pursuant to
which the monthly  payments made by the  mortgagor during the early  years of
the Mortgage  Loan will be less  than the scheduled monthly  payments thereon
(the  "Buydown  Period"). The  periodic increase  in the  amount paid  by the
mortgagor of a  Buydown Mortgage Loan during or at the  end of the applicable
Buydown Period may  create a greater financial burden  for the mortgagor, who
might  not have  otherwise  qualified  for a  mortgage,  and may  accordingly
increase the risk of default with respect to the related Mortgage Loan.

    The Mortgage Rates on certain ARM  Loans subject to negative amortization
generally  adjust  monthly  and  their  amortization  schedules  adjust  less
frequently. During a period  of rising interest rates as  well as immediately
after origination (initial Mortgage Rates are generally lower than the sum of
the applicable index at origination and the related margin over such index at
which interest  accrues), the  amount of interest  accruing on  the principal
balance of such Mortgage Loans may exceed the amount of the minimum scheduled
monthly payment thereon.  As a result, a  portion of the accrued  interest on
negatively amortizing  Mortgage Loans may  be added to the  principal balance
thereof and will bear  interest at the applicable Mortgage Rate. The addition
of any such deferred interest to  the principal balance of any related  class
or classes  of Certificates will  lengthen the weighted average  life thereof
and may  adversely affect yield to holders  thereof, depending upon the price
at  which such  Certificates were  purchased.  In addition,  with respect  to
certain  ARM Loans  subject  to  negative amortization,  during  a period  of
declining interest  rates, it might  be expected that each  minimum scheduled
monthly payment on  such a Mortgage Loan would exceed the amount of scheduled
principal and  accrued interest on  the principal balance thereof,  and since
such excess will  be applied to reduce  the principal balance of  the related
class  or  classes  of  Certificates,  the  weighted  average  life  of  such
Certificates  will be  reduced  and  may adversely  affect  yield to  holders
thereof, depending upon the price at which such Certificates were purchased.

Defaults

    The rate of defaults on the Mortgage Loans  will also affect the rate and
timing  of  principal  payments on  the  Assets  and thus  the  yield  on the
Certificates. In  general, defaults on  mortgage loans are expected  to occur
with greater frequency  in their early years. The rate of default on Mortgage
Loans which  are refinance  or limited documentation  mortgage loans,  and on
Mortgage Loans with high Loan-to-Value  Ratios, may be higher than  for other
types of  Mortgage Loans.  Furthermore, the rate  and timing  of prepayments,
defaults  and liquidations  on the  Mortgage Loans  will be  affected by  the
general economic condition of the region of  the country in which the related
Mortgage  Properties are  located.  The  risk of  delinquencies  and loss  is
greater  and  prepayments  are  less  likely  in  regions  where  a  weak  or
deteriorating economy  exists, as may  be evidenced by, among  other factors,
increasing unemployment or falling property values.

Foreclosures

    The  number of  foreclosures and  the  principal amount  of the  Mortgage
Loans comprising  or underlying  the Mortgage Assets  that are  foreclosed in
relation to the number and principal amount of Mortgage Loans that are repaid
in accordance with their  terms will affect the weighted average  life of the
Mortgage Loans comprising or  underlying the Mortgage Assets and  that of the
related series of Certificates.

Refinancing

    At the request of a mortgagor, the Master Servicer  or a Sub-Servicer may
allow the  refinancing of  a Mortgage  Loan in  any Trust  Fund by  accepting
prepayments thereon and  permitting a new loan  secured by a mortgage  on the
same property. In the event of such a  refinancing, the new loan would not be
included in  the related  Trust Fund and,  therefore, such  refinancing would
have the  same effect as a prepayment in full of the related Mortgage Loan. A
Sub-Servicer  or  the Master  Servicer  may,  from  time to  time,  implement
programs  designed to  encourage  refinancing.  Such  programs  may  include,
without  limitation, modifications  of existing  loans,  general or  targeted
solicitations, the offering of pre-approved applications, reduced origination
fees  or closing  costs, or  other  financial incentives.  In addition,  Sub-
Servicers   may  encourage  the  refinancing  of  Mortgage  Loans,  including
defaulted Mortgage Loans,  that would permit creditworthy borrowers to assume
the outstanding indebtedness of such Mortgage Loans.

Due-on-Sale Clauses

    Acceleration of  mortgage payments  as a result  of certain transfers  of
underlying  Mortgaged Property is  another factor affecting  prepayment rates
that may not be  reflected in the prepayment standards or  models used in the
relevant Prospectus Supplement. A number  of the Mortgage Loans comprising or
underlying the Assets may include "due-on-sale" clauses that allow the holder
of the Mortgage  Loans to demand payment  in full of the  remaining principal
balance of  the Mortgage  Loans  upon sale,  transfer  or conveyance  of  the
related Mortgaged Property. With respect to any Whole Loans, unless otherwise
provided  in the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  the  Master Servicer  will
generally  enforce any due-on-sale  clause to the extent  it has knowledge of
the conveyance or  proposed conveyance of  the underlying Mortgaged  Property
and it is entitled to do so under applicable law; provided, however, that the
Master Servicer will  not take any action  in relation to the  enforcement of
any due-on-sale provision which would adversely affect or jeopardize coverage
under any applicable insurance policy. See "Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage
Loans--Due-on-Sale Clauses"  and "Description of  the Agreements--Due-on-Sale
Provisions."

                       DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES

GENERAL

    The Certificates of each series (including  any class of Certificates not
offered  hereby) will represent  the entire beneficial  ownership interest in
the Trust  Fund created pursuant  to the  related Agreement.  Each series  of
Certificates  will consist of  one or more  classes of Certificates  that may
(i) provide for the accrual of  interest thereon based on fixed,  variable or
adjustable rates;  (ii) be  senior (collectively,  "Senior Certificates")  or
subordinate (collectively, "Subordinate  Certificates") to one or  more other
classes  of  Certificates   in  respect  of  certain  distributions   on  the
Certificates;   (iii) be   entitled   to    principal   distributions,   with
disproportionately low, nominal  or no interest  distributions (collectively,
"Stripped   Principal   Certificates");    (iv) be   entitled   to   interest
distributions,  with   disproportionately  low,   nominal  or  no   principal
distributions (collectively,  "Stripped Interest  Certificates"); (v) provide
for distributions of  accrued interest thereon commencing  only following the
occurrence of certain  events, such as  the retirement of  one or more  other
classes   of   Certificates   of    such   series   (collectively,   "Accrual
Certificates"); (vi) provide for payments of principal sequentially, based on
specified payment schedules, from only a portion  of the Assets in such Trust
Fund or based on specified calculations, to the extent of available funds, in
each case  as described  in the related  Prospectus Supplement;  and/or (vii)
provide  for distributions based on  a combination of  two or more components
thereof with one or more of  the characteristics described in this  paragraph
including a Stripped Principal Certificate  component and a Stripped Interest
Certificate component.  If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
distributions on  one or  more classes  of a  series of  Certificates may  be
limited to collections  from a designated portion  of the Whole Loans  in the
related  Mortgage Pool  (each such portion  of Whole Loans,  a "Mortgage Loan
Group").  Any such classes may include classes of Offered Certificates.

    Each class of Offered Certificates of a series will  be issued in minimum
denominations  corresponding  to  the Certificate  Balances  or,  in  case of
Stripped  Interest  Certificates, notional  amounts  or  percentage interests
specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement. The transfer  of any Offered
Certificates may be registered and such Certificates may be exchanged without
the  payment  of   any  service  charge  payable  in   connection  with  such
registration of transfer or exchange, but the Depositor or the Trustee or any
agent thereof may  require payment of  a sum sufficient to  cover any tax  or
other governmental  charge. One or more  classes of Certificates  of a series
may be issued in definitive form ("Definitive Certificates") or in book-entry
form  ("Book-Entry  Certificates"),  as provided  in  the  related Prospectus
Supplement.  See "Risk Factors--Book-Entry  Registration" and "Description of
the  Certificates-Book-Entry   Registration  and   Definitive  Certificates."
Definitive Certificates  will be exchangeable  for other Certificates  of the
same  class and  series of  a  like aggregate  Certificate Balance,  notional
amount or percentage  interest but of different authorized denominations. See
"Risk Factors--Limited Liquidity" and "Limited Assets." 

DISTRIBUTIONS

    Distributions on the Certificates  of each series will  be made by or  on
behalf of the Trustee  on each Distribution Date as specified  in the related
Prospectus Supplement from the Available Distribution Amount for  such series
and  such Distribution  Date. Except  as otherwise  specified in  the related
Prospectus Supplement, distributions (other than the final distribution) will
be made to the persons in whose  names the Certificates are registered at the
close of  business on the last business day of  the month preceding the month
in which the Distribution Date occurs (the  "Record Date"), and the amount of
each distribution will be determined as of the close  of business on the date
specified  in the related  Prospectus Supplement (the  "Determination Date").
All  distributions  with  respect  to  each class  of  Certificates  on  each
Distribution   Date  will  be  allocated  pro   rata  among  the  outstanding
Certificates  in such  class  or by  random selection,  as  described in  the
related  Prospectus  Supplement  or  otherwise  established  by  the  related
Trustee.  Payments  will be  made  either  by  wire transfer  in  immediately
available funds  to the  account of a  Certificateholder at  a bank  or other
entity  having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder has
so notified  the Trustee or  other person required  to make such  payments no
later than the date  specified in the related Prospectus Supplement  (and, if
so provided in  the related Prospectus Supplement, holds  Certificates in the
requisite amount specified therein), or by check mailed to the address of the
person entitled thereto as it  appears on the Certificate Register; provided,
however,  that  the  final distribution  in  retirement  of the  Certificates
(whether Definitive  Certificates or  Book-Entry Certificates)  will be  made
only  upon presentation  and surrender  of the  Certificates at  the location
specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution. 

AVAILABLE DISTRIBUTION AMOUNT

    All  distributions   on  the   Certificates  of   each  series  on   each
Distribution  Date  will  be  made  from the  Available  Distribution  Amount
described  below, in  accordance  with  the terms  described  in the  related
Prospectus  Supplement. Unless provided  otherwise in the  related Prospectus
Supplement,  the "Available Distribution  Amount" for each  Distribution Date
equals the sum of the following amounts: 

    (i) the total  amount of all cash  on deposit in  the related Certificate
    Account as of the corresponding Determination Date, exclusive of: 

        (a)  all scheduled  payments of principal  and interest  collected but
        due on  a  date  subsequent to  the related  Due  Period (unless  the
        related  Prospectus  Supplement provides  otherwise,  a  "Due Period"
        with respect  to any Distribution  Date will  commence on the  second
        day  of the  month in  which the  immediately preceding  Distribution
        Date occurs,  or the day after  the Cut-off Date  in the case of  the
        first Due Period, and will end  on the first day of the  month of the
        related Distribution Date), 

        (b)  unless the related Prospectus Supplement  provides otherwise, all
        prepayments, together with related payments  of the interest  thereon
        and  related  Prepayment Premiums,  Liquidation  Proceeds,  Insurance
        Proceeds and other  unscheduled recoveries received subsequent to the
        related Due Period, and 

        (c)  all  amounts  in  the   Certificate  Account  that   are  due  or
        reimbursable  to  the Depositor,  the  Trustee,  an  Asset Seller,  a
        Sub-Servicer, the  Master Servicer or any  other entity as  specified
        in the related  Prospectus Supplement or that are payable  in respect
        of certain expenses of the related Trust Fund; 

    (ii)     if  the related  Prospectus Supplement  so provides,  interest or
    investment  income on  amounts  on deposit  in  the Certificate  Account,
    including any net amounts paid under any Cash Flow Agreements; 

    (iii)    all  advances made by  a Master Servicer  or any  other entity as
    specified  in the  related  Prospectus Supplement  with  respect to  such
    Distribution Date; 

    (iv)     if  and  to  the  extent  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement so
    provides,  amounts paid  by  a Master  Servicer  or any  other entity  as
    specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement with respect  to interest
    shortfalls  resulting  from  prepayments during  the  related  Prepayment
    Period; and 

    (v) unless the related Prospectus Supplement  provides otherwise, to  the
    extent  not  on deposit  in  the related  Certificate  Account as  of the
    corresponding Determination  Date, any amounts  collected under,  from or
    in respect of any Credit Support with  respect to such Distribution Date.

    As  described below,  the entire  Available  Distribution Amount  will be
distributed  among the related  Certificates (including any  Certificates not
offered hereby) on  each Distribution Date, and accordingly  will be released
from the Trust Fund and will not be available for any future distributions. 

DISTRIBUTIONS OF INTEREST ON THE CERTIFICATES

    Each  class  of Certificates  (other than  classes of  Stripped Principal
Certificates  that   have  no  Pass-Through   Rate)  may  have   a  different
Pass-Through  Rate, which will  be a  fixed, variable  or adjustable  rate at
which interest will accrue  on such class or a component  thereof (the "Pass-
Through  Rate").    The  related   Prospectus  Supplement  will  specify  the
Pass-Through Rate for each class  or component or, in the case  of a variable
or adjustable Pass-Through Rate, the method for determining the  Pass-Through
Rate.  Unless otherwise  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,
interest  on the Certificates  will be calculated  on the basis  of a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 

    Distributions of  interest in  respect of the  Certificates of any  class
will be  made on  each Distribution  Date (other  than any  class of  Accrual
Certificates, which  will be  entitled to  distributions of  accrued interest
commencing  only  on  the  Distribution  Date,  or under  the  circumstances,
specified in  the related  Prospectus Supplement, and  any class  of Stripped
Principal  Certificates  that  are  not  entitled  to  any  distributions  of
interest) based on  the Accrued Certificate Interest for such  class and such
Distribution Date, subject to the sufficiency of the portion of the Available
Distribution Amount allocable to such  class on such Distribution Date. Prior
to the time  interest is distributable on any  class of Accrual Certificates,
the amount of  Accrued Certificate Interest  otherwise distributable on  such
class  will be added to the Certificate  Balance thereof on each Distribution
Date. With respect  to each class of Certificates and  each Distribution Date
(other  than certain  classes of  Stripped  Interest Certificates),  "Accrued
Certificate  Interest" will  be equal  to  interest accrued  for a  specified
period on  the outstanding Certificate  Balance thereof immediately  prior to
the  Distribution  Date,  at the  applicable  Pass-Through  Rate, reduced  as
described  below. Unless  otherwise provided  in  the Prospectus  Supplement,
Accrued  Certificate Interest on Stripped Interest Certificates will be equal
to interest accrued for a specified period on the outstanding notional amount
thereof  immediately  prior to  each  Distribution  Date, at  the  applicable
Pass-Through Rate, reduced as described  below. The method of determining the
notional  amount for  any class  of  Stripped Interest  Certificates will  be
described in  the related Prospectus Supplement. Reference to notional amount
is solely for convenience in certain calculations and  does not represent the
right to receive any distributions of principal. Unless otherwise provided in
the  related Prospectus  Supplement,  the Accrued  Certificate Interest  on a
series of Certificates  will be reduced in  the event of  prepayment interest
shortfalls,  which are  shortfalls  in  collections of  interest  for a  full
accrual  period  resulting from  prepayments prior  to the  due date  in such
accrual period  on the Mortgage  Loans comprising or underlying  the Mortgage
Assets in the Trust Fund for such series. The particular manner in which such
shortfalls  are  to  be allocated  among  some  or  all  of  the  classes  of
Certificates  of that  series will  be  specified in  the related  Prospectus
Supplement. The related Prospectus  Supplement will also describe  the extent
to  which  the amount  of  Accrued  Certificate  Interest that  is  otherwise
distributable on (or, in the case of Accrual Certificates, that may otherwise
be added to the  Certificate Balance of) a class of  Offered Certificates may
be reduced as  a result of any other  contingencies, including delinquencies,
losses  and  deferred  interest  on  or in  respect  of  the  Mortgage  Loans
comprising  or underlying  the Mortgage  Assets  in the  related Trust  Fund.
Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, any reduction
in the  amount of Accrued  Certificate Interest otherwise distributable  on a
class of Certificates by reason of the  allocation to such class of a portion
of  any deferred interest on the Mortgage  Loans comprising or underlying the
Mortgage Assets  in the  related Trust  Fund will  result in  a corresponding
increase in the Certificate Balance of such class. See "Risk Factors--Average
Life of Certificates; Prepayments; Yields" and "Yield Considerations."

DISTRIBUTIONS OF PRINCIPAL OF THE CERTIFICATES

    The Certificates of  each series, other than certain classes  of Stripped
Interest Certificates, will have a  "Certificate Balance" which, at any time,
will  equal  the then  maximum amount  that  the holder  will be  entitled to
receive in respect of principal out of the future cash flow on the Assets and
other assets included in the  related Trust Fund. The outstanding Certificate
Balance of a  Certificate will be reduced  to the extent of  distributions of
principal thereon from time to time and,  if and to the extent so provided in
the  related Prospectus  Supplement,  by  the amount  of  losses incurred  in
respect  of  the related  Assets,  may be  increased  in respect  of deferred
interest on the  related Mortgage Loans to the extent provided in the related
Prospectus Supplement and, in the case  of Accrual Certificates prior to  the
Distribution  Date  on  which  distributions  of  interest  are  required  to
commence, will  be increased  by any  related  Accrued Certificate  Interest.
Unless otherwise provided  in the related Prospectus  Supplement, the initial
aggregate Certificate Balance of all classes of Certificates of a series will
not  be greater  than  the  outstanding aggregate  principal  balance of  the
related  Assets as  of the  applicable  Cut-off Date.  The initial  aggregate
Certificate Balance of a  series and each class thereof will  be specified in
the related Prospectus  Supplement. Unless otherwise provided  in the related
Prospectus  Supplement,  distributions  of  principal will  be  made  on each
Distribution Date to the class or classes of Certificates entitled thereto in
accordance with  the provisions described in such Prospectus Supplement until
the Certificate  Balance of  such class  has been  reduced to  zero. Stripped
Interest Certificates  with no  Certificate Balance are  not entitled  to any
distributions of principal. 

COMPONENTS

    To   the  extent   specified  in   the  related   Prospectus  Supplement,
distribution on a class of Certificates may be based on a combination  of two
or more  different components as described under  "--General" above.  To such
extent, the descriptions set forth under "--Distributions of Interests on the
Certificates"  and "--Distributions of  Principal of the  Certificates" above
also relate  to components of  such a class of  Certificates.  In  such case,
reference in such sections to Certificate Balance and Pass-Through Rate refer
to the principal balance, if any, of  any such component and the Pass-Through
Rate, if any, on any such component, respectively.

DISTRIBUTIONS ON THE CERTIFICATES OF PREPAYMENT PREMIUMS

    If so provided in the related  Prospectus Supplement, Prepayment Premiums
that are collected on  the Mortgage Assets in the related  Trust Fund will be
distributed on each Distribution Date to the class or classes of Certificates
entitled  thereto  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  described  in  such
Prospectus Supplement. 

ALLOCATION OF LOSSES AND SHORTFALLS

    If so provided  in the Prospectus Supplement for a series of Certificates
consisting  of  one or  more  classes  of  Subordinate Certificates,  on  any
Distribution Date in respect of which  losses or shortfalls in collections on
the  Mortgage  Assets  have  been incurred,  the  amount  of  such  losses or
shortfalls will be borne first by a class of Subordinate Certificates  in the
priority  and  manner  and  subject  to the  limitations  specified  in  such
Prospectus Supplement. See "Description of  Credit Support" for a description
of the  types of  protection that may  be included  in a  Trust Fund  against
losses and shortfalls on Mortgage Assets comprising such Trust Fund. 

ADVANCES IN RESPECT OF DELINQUENCIES

    With respect to any  series of Certificates evidencing  an interest in  a
Trust Fund, unless  otherwise provided in the related  Prospectus Supplement,
the Master Servicer or another  entity described therein will be required  as
part  of  its  servicing  responsibilities  to  advance  on  or  before  each
Distribution Date its own funds or funds held in the Certificate Account that
are not included  in the Available Distribution Amount  for such Distribution
Date, in  an amount equal  to the aggregate  of payments of  principal (other
than any balloon  payments) and interest (net  of related servicing fees  and
Retained Interest) that were due on the Whole Loans in such Trust Fund during
the related Due Period and were delinquent on the related Determination Date,
subject  to   the  Master  Servicer's   (or  another  entity's)   good  faith
determination that such advances  will be reimbursable from  Related Proceeds
(as defined below). In the case of a series of Certificates that includes one
or more classes of Subordinate Certificates and if so provided in the related
Prospectus  Supplement, the Master  Servicer's (or another  entity's) advance
obligation may be limited only to the portion of such delinquencies necessary
to  make  the required  distributions  on  one  or  more  classes  of  Senior
Certificates  and/or may  be subject  to  the Master  Servicer's (or  another
entity's) good  faith determination that  such advances will  be reimbursable
not only  from Related Proceeds  but also  from collections  on other  Assets
otherwise  distributable  on  one   or  more  classes  of   such  Subordinate
Certificates. See "Description of Credit Support." 

    Advances are  intended to maintain a  regular flow of  scheduled interest
and  principal payments to  holders of the  class or  classes of Certificates
entitled thereto, rather  than to guarantee or insure  against losses. Unless
otherwise provided  in the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  advances of  the
Master Servicer's (or  another entity's) funds will be  reimbursable only out
of related recoveries on the Mortgage Loans (including amounts received under
any form of Credit  Support) respecting which such advances were  made (as to
any Mortgage Loan, "Related Proceeds") and, if so provided  in the Prospectus
Supplement, out of any amounts otherwise distributable on one or more classes
of Subordinate Certificates of such  series; provided, however, that any such
advance  will be  reimbursable from  any amounts  in the  Certificate Account
prior to any distributions being made on the Certificates to the  extent that
the Master Servicer (or such other entity) shall determine in good faith that
such advance  (a "Nonrecoverable Advance") is not ultimately recoverable from
Related  Proceeds  or,  if  applicable,  from  collections  on  other  Assets
otherwise  distributable on such  Subordinate Certificates. If  advances have
been  made by  the  Master  Servicer from  excess  funds  in the  Certificate
Account,  the  Master Servicer  is  required  to replace  such  funds  in the
Certificate Account on any future Distribution Date to the  extent that funds
in the Certificate  Account on such Distribution Date  are less than payments
required to be  made to Certificateholders on  such date. If so  specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement, the obligations of the Master Servicer (or
another entity)  to make advances  may be secured  by a cash  advance reserve
fund, a  surety bond, a letter of credit or another form of limited guaranty.
If applicable, information regarding the characteristics of, and the identity
of any  obligor on, any  such surety bond, will  be set forth  in the related
Prospectus Supplement. 

    If and  to the extent  so provided in the  related Prospectus Supplement,
the Master Servicer (or another entity) will be entitled to receive  interest
at  the rate  specified  therein  on its  outstanding  advances and  will  be
entitled to pay itself such interest periodically from general collections on
the  Assets  prior to  any  payment  to  Certificateholders or  as  otherwise
provided   in  the  related  Agreement  and   described  in  such  Prospectus
Supplement.

    The Prospectus  Supplement for any  series of Certificates  evidencing an
interest in  a Trust Fund that  includes MBS will describe  any corresponding
advancing obligation of any person in connection with such MBS.

REPORTS TO CERTIFICATEHOLDERS

    Unless  otherwise  provided  in  the  Prospectus  Supplement,  with  each
distribution to holders of any class of Certificates of a series,  the Master
Servicer or  the Trustee, as  provided in the related  Prospectus Supplement,
will forward or  cause to be forwarded to each such  holder, to the Depositor
and to  such other parties  as may be  specified in the  related Agreement, a

prepare their tax returns; 

    (v) the  aggregate amount of advances included in  such distribution, and

    (ix)     with  respect to each  REO Property relating to  a Whole Loan and
included in the Trust Fund as of  the end of the related Due Period,  (a) the

immediately following such Distribution Date (calculated  as if such Mortgage
Loan were still outstanding taking into account certain limited modifications
to the terms thereof specified in the Agreement), (c) the aggregate amount of
unreimbursed  servicing expenses and unreimbursed advances in respect thereof
and (d) if applicable,  the aggregate amount of interest  accrued and payable
on related servicing expenses and related advances;

    (xi)     with respect  to any such  REO Property sold  during the  related
Due Period (a) the aggregate amount of sale proceeds, (b) the portion of such
sales proceeds payable  or reimbursable to the Master Servicer  in respect of
such REO Property or the related Mortgage Loan and (c) the amount of any loss
to Certificateholders in respect of the related Mortgage Loan; 

    (xii)    the aggregate  Certificate Balance  or  notional  amount, as  the
case  may  be,  of  each  class  of  Certificates  (including  any  class  of
Certificates  not  offered   hereby)  at  the  close  of   business  on  such
Distribution Date, separately  identifying any reduction in  such Certificate
Balance  due to the  allocation of any  loss and increase  in the Certificate
Balance  of  a  class  of Accrual  Certificates  in  the  event that  Accrued
Certificate Interest has been added to such balance; 

    (xiii)   the  aggregate amount  of principal  prepayments made  during the
related Due Period;


    (xiv)    the  amount  deposited in  the  reserve  fund, if  any,  on  such
Distribution Date; 

    (xv)     the  amount  remaining in  the reserve  fund, if  any, as  of the

the  Pass-Through  Rate  applicable  to   such  Distribution  Date,  and,  if

accordance with the method specified in the related Prospectus Supplement; 

    (xviii)  in  the case  of  Certificates  with  an adjustable  Pass-Through
Rate, for statements  to be distributed in  any month in which  an adjustment
date occurs, the adjustable Pass-Through Rate applicable to such Distribution
Date  and  the immediately  succeeding  Distribution  Date  as calculated  in
accordance with the method specified in the related Prospectus Supplement; 

    (xix)    as to  any series which  includes Credit Support,  the amount  of
coverage  of each  instrument of  Credit Support included  therein as  of the
close of business on such Distribution Date; and 

    (xx)     the   aggregate  amount   of  payments   by  the   mortgagors  of
(a) default interest, (b) late  charges and  (c) assumption and  modification
fees collected during the related Due Period.

    In the  case  of information  furnished  pursuant to  subclauses (i)-(iv)
above,  the  amounts shall  be  expressed  as  a  dollar amount  per  minimum
denomination of Certificates or for  such other specified portion thereof. In
addition, in  the case of  information furnished pursuant to  subclauses (i),
(ii), (xii), (xvi) and (xvii) above, such amounts shall also be provided with
respect to each  component, if any,  of a class  of Certificates. The  Master
Servicer or the  Trustee, as specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement,
will forward or cause to be forwarded to each holder, to the Depositor and to
such  other parties  as may  be specified  in the  Agreement,  a copy  of any
statements or  reports received  by the Master  Servicer or  the Trustee,  as
applicable,  with respect  to any  MBS.  The Prospectus  Supplement for  each
series of Offered Certificates will describe any additional information to be
included in reports to the holders of such Certificates. 

    Within a reasonable period of  time after the end of each  calendar year,
the Master  Servicer or the  Trustee, as provided  in the related  Prospectus
Supplement, shall furnish to each person who at any time during  the calendar
year was a holder of a Certificate a statement containing the information set
forth in subclauses (i)-(iv) above, aggregated  for such calendar year or the
applicable portion thereof during which such person  was a Certificateholder.
Such obligation of the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall be deemed to have
been satisfied  to the extent that substantially comparable information shall
be  provided  by  the   Master  Servicer  or  the  Trustee  pursuant  to  any
requirements of the Code as are from time to time in force. See  "Description
of the Certificates--Book-Entry Registration and Definitive Certificates." 

TERMINATION

    The  obligations created  by the  related  Agreement for  each series  of
Certificates will terminate  upon the payment  to Certificateholders of  that
series of  all  amounts held  in the  Certificate Account  or  by the  Master
Servicer, if any, or  the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to
such  Agreement following  the  earlier  of (i) the  final  payment or  other
liquidation  of the  last Asset  subject thereto  or the  disposition  of all
property  acquired upon  foreclosure of  any Whole  Loan subject  thereto and
(ii) the  purchase  of all  of the  assets  of the  Trust  Fund by  the party
entitled  to effect  such termination,  under  the circumstances  and in  the
manner  set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement. In no event, however,
will the trust created by the Agreement continue beyond the date specified in
the  related Prospectus  Supplement.  Written notice  of  termination of  the
Agreement will be given to each Certificateholder, and the final distribution
will be made only upon presentation and  surrender of the Certificates at the
location to be specified in the notice of termination. 

    If  so  specified in  the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  a  series  of
Certificates  may  be  subject  to  optional  early  termination through  the
repurchase  of the assets  in the related  Trust Fund by  the party specified
therein, under the circumstances  and in the manner set forth  therein. If so
provided  in the  related Prospectus  Supplement, upon  the reduction  of the
Certificate  Balance of  a specified  class or  classes of Certificates  by a
specified percentage or amount, the party specified therein will solicit bids
for the  purchase of all assets of the Trust Fund, or of a sufficient portion
of such  assets to retire  such class  or classes or  purchase such class  or
classes at a  price set forth in  the related Prospectus Supplement,  in each
case, under the circumstances and in the manner set forth therein. 

BOOK-ENTRY REGISTRATION AND DEFINITIVE CERTIFICATES

    If so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, one or more  classes
of  the Offered  Certificates  of any  series  will be  issued  as Book-Entry
Certificates, and each such class will  be represented by one or more  single
Certificates registered  in the  name of  a nominee  for the  depository, The
Depository Trust Company ("DTC"). 

    DTC is a limited-purpose  trust company organized  under the laws of  the
State  of  New York,  a member  of  the Federal  Reserve System,  a "clearing
corporation" within the meaning  of the Uniform Commercial Code ("UCC") and a
"clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the
Securities  Exchange  Act  of  1934, as  amended.  DTC  was  created  to hold
securities   for  its   participating   organizations  ("Participants")   and
facilitate  the clearance and  settlement of securities  transactions between
Participants through electronic book-entry changes in their accounts, thereby
eliminating  the need  for physical  movement  of certificates.  Participants
include  Morgan Stanley &  Co. Incorporated, securities  brokers and dealers,
banks,  trust companies  and clearing  corporations and  may  include certain
other organizations. Indirect  access to the DTC system  also is available to
others such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through
or maintain a  custodial relationship with a Participant,  either directly or
indirectly ("Indirect Participants").

    Unless  otherwise   provided  in   the  related  Prospectus   Supplement,
investors that  are not Participants  or Indirect Participants but  desire to
purchase, sell  or otherwise  transfer ownership of,  or other  interests in,
Book-Entry  Certificates may  do so  only through  Participants  and Indirect
Participants. In addition, such investors ("Certificate Owners") will receive
all  distributions  on  the  Book-Entry  Certificates  through  DTC  and  its
Participants.  Under a  book-entry format,  Certificate  Owners will  receive
payments after  the related  Distribution Date  because,  while payments  are
required to be forwarded to Cede & Co., as nominee  for DTC ("Cede"), on each
such  date,  DTC  will  forward  such  payments  to  its  Participants  which
thereafter  will be  required to  forward  them to  Indirect Participants  or
Certificate  Owners.  Unless  otherwise provided  in  the  related Prospectus
Supplement,  the  only "Certificateholder"  (as  such  term  is used  in  the
Agreement) will be Cede, as nominee  of DTC, and the Certificate Owners  will
not be recognized  by the Trustee as Certificateholders  under the Agreement.
Certificate   Owners   will  be   permitted   to  exercise   the   rights  of
Certificateholders  under the related  Agreement only indirectly  through the
Participants who in turn will exercise their rights through DTC. 

    Under the  rules, regulations and  procedures creating and  affecting DTC
and  its operations,  DTC  is  required to  make  book-entry transfers  among
Participants  on  whose  behalf  it  acts  with  respect  to  the  Book-Entry
Certificates  and  is  required  to receive  and  transmit  distributions  of
principal  of and interest  on the Book-Entry  Certificates. Participants and
Indirect  Participants with  which  Certificate  Owners  have  accounts  with
respect  to  the  Book-Entry  Certificates similarly  are  required  to  make
book-entry  transfers and  receive and  transmit such  payments on  behalf of
their respective Certificate Owners. 

    Because  DTC can act only  on behalf of Participants,  who in turn act on
behalf  of  Indirect  Participants  and  certain  banks,  the  ability  of  a
Certificate Owner  to pledge its  interest in the Book-Entry  Certificates to
persons or entities that  do not participate in the DTC  system, or otherwise
take actions in respect  of its interest in the  Book-Entry Certificates, may
be  limited  due  to  the  lack of  a  physical  certificate  evidencing such
interest.

    DTC has advised  the Depositor that it will take  any action permitted to
be taken by a  Certificateholder under an Agreement only at  the direction of
one  or more  Participants  to  whose  account  with  DTC  interests  in  the
Book-Entry Certificates are credited. 

    Unless  otherwise  specified  in   the  related  Prospectus   Supplement,
Certificates  initially issued  in book-entry  form will  be issued  in fully
registered,  certificated  form  to  Certificate  Owners  or  their  nominees
("Definitive  Certificates"), rather  than  to  DTC or  its  nominee only  if
(i) the  Depositor advises  the  Trustee in  writing that  DTC  is no  longer
willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as depository with
respect to the Certificates and the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified
successor  or (ii) the  Depositor, at  its  option, elects  to terminate  the
book-entry system through DTC. 

    Upon the occurrence of either of the  events described in the immediately
preceding  paragraph, DTC  is  required  to notify  all  Participants of  the
availability  through  DTC  of Definitive  Certificates  for  the Certificate
Owners. Upon surrender by DTC of the certificate or certificates representing
the Book-Entry Certificates, together  with instructions for  reregistration,
the  Trustee will  issue (or cause  to be  issued) to the  Certificate Owners
identified in such instructions the Definitive Certificates to which they are
entitled,  and thereafter  the Trustee  will  recognize the  holders of  such
Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders under the Agreement. 

                        DESCRIPTION OF THE AGREEMENTS

    The Certificates  of each  series evidencing  interests in  a Trust  Fund
including  Whole Loans  will be issued  pursuant to  a Pooling  and Servicing
Agreement among  the Depositor, a  Master Servicer (or Master  Servicers) and
the Trustee. The  Certificates of each series evidencing interests in a Trust
Fund not including Whole  Loans will be issued pursuant to  a Trust Agreement
between the  Depositor and a  Trustee.  Any  Master Servicer and  the Trustee
with respect  to any  series of  Certificates will  be named  in the  related
Prospectus  Supplement.  In  any series of  Certificates for which  there are
multiple Master Servicers, there will  also be multiple Mortgage Loan Groups,
each  corresponding to  a particular  Master  Servicer; and,  if the  related
Prospectus Supplement so  specifies, the servicing  obligations of each  such
Master  Servicer will be  limited to  the Whole  Loans in  such corresponding
Mortgage Loan Group.  In lieu of appointing a Master Servicer, a servicer may
be  appointed pursuant to the  Pooling and Servicing  Agreement for any Trust
Fund.  Such servicer will service all  or a significant number of Whole Loans
directly without a  Sub-Servicer.  Unless otherwise specified  in the related
Prospectus  Supplement,  the  obligations  of  any  such  servicer  shall  be
commensurate with those of the  Master Servicer described herein.  References
in this prospectus to Master Servicer and its rights and obligations,  unless
otherwise specified in the related  Prospectus Supplement, shall be deemed to
also be references to any servicer servicing Whole Loans directly.  A manager
or administrator  may be appointed  pursuant to  the Trust Agreement  for any
Trust  Fund to administer  such Trust Fund. The  provisions of each Agreement
will  vary depending  upon  the  nature  of the  Certificates  to  be  issued
thereunder and  the nature of the related Trust Fund. A form of a Pooling and
Servicing  Agreement  has  been  filed  as an  exhibit  to  the  Registration
Statement  of which  this  Prospectus is  a part.  Any  Trust Agreement  will
generally  conform to  the  form  of Pooling  and  Servicing Agreement  filed
herewith,  but will not contain provisions  with respect to the servicing and
maintenance   of  Whole  Loans.  The  following  summaries  describe  certain
provisions that may appear in each Agreement. The Prospectus Supplement for a
series of Certificates will describe  any provision of the Agreement relating
to such series that materially differs from the description thereof contained
in this  Prospectus. The  summaries do  not purport  to be  complete and  are
subject  to, and are qualified in their entirety  by reference to, all of the
provisions of the Agreement for each  Trust Fund and the description of  such
provisions in the related Prospectus  Supplement. As used herein with respect
to any series,  the term "Certificate" refers  to all of the  Certificates of
that series, whether  or not  offered hereby  and by  the related  Prospectus
Supplement, unless the context otherwise requires. The Depositor will provide
a  copy  of the  Agreement  (without  exhibits)  relating to  any  series  of
Certificates without charge upon written request of a holder of a Certificate
of such series addressed to Morgan Stanley Capital I Inc., c/o Morgan Stanley
& Co.  Incorporated, 1585  Broadway, New  York, New  York 10036.   Attention:
David R. Warren.

ASSIGNMENT OF ASSETS; REPURCHASES

    At  the time  of issuance  of any  series of  Certificates, the Depositor
will assign (or cause to be assigned) to the designated Trustee the Assets to
be included  in  the related  Trust  Fund, together  with  all principal  and
interest to be received on or with  respect to such Assets after the  Cut-off
Date, other than principal and interest due on or before the Cut-off Date and
other than  any Retained Interest.  The Trustee will, concurrently  with such
assignment, deliver  the Certificates  to the Depositor  in exchange  for the
Assets and the other assets comprising  the Trust Fund for such series.  Each
Mortgage Asset will  be identified in a  schedule appearing as an  exhibit to
the related Agreement.  Unless otherwise provided  in the related  Prospectus
Supplement, such schedule will include detailed information (i) in respect of
each  Whole  Loan included  in  the  related  Trust Fund,  including  without
limitation, the  address of the  related Mortgaged Property and  type of such
property, the Mortgage Rate and, if applicable, the applicable index, margin,
adjustment date and any rate cap information, the original and remaining term
to  maturity,  the original  and  outstanding principal  balance  and balloon
payment, if any, the Value and  Loan-to-Value Ratio as of the date  indicated
and payment and prepayment provisions,  if applicable, and (ii) in respect of
each MBS  included in the  related Trust Fund, including  without limitation,
the MBS Issuer, MBS Servicer and  MBS Trustee, the pass-through or bond  rate
or  formula  for determining  such  rate,  the issue  date  and original  and
remaining  term  to maturity,  if  applicable, the  original  and outstanding
principal amount and payment provisions, if applicable. 

    With respect to each Whole  Loan, the Depositor will deliver or  cause to
be  delivered to  the Trustee (or  to the custodian  hereinafter referred to)
certain  loan documents,  which  unless otherwise  specified  in the  related
Prospectus  Supplement  will  include the  original  Mortgage  Note endorsed,
without recourse,  in blank  or to  the order  of the  Trustee, the  original
Mortgage (or a  certified copy thereof) with evidence  of recording indicated
thereon and an assignment of the Mortgage  to the Trustee in recordable form.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Trust  Fund may include Mortgage Loans where
the original  Mortgage Note is not delivered to  the Trustee if the Depositor
delivers to the Trustee  or the custodian a  copy or a duplicate original  of
the Mortgage  Note, together with  an affidavit certifying that  the original
thereof has been lost or destroyed.  With respect to such Mortgage Loans, the
Trustee (or its nominee) may not be able to enforce the Mortgage Note against
the related  borrower. Unless otherwise  specified in the  related Prospectus
Supplement, the  Asset Seller  will be  required to  agree to  repurchase, or
substitute  for, each such  Mortgage Loan that is  subsequently in default if
the enforcement  thereof or of  the related Mortgage is  materially adversely
affected  by the  absence of  the  original Mortgage  Note. Unless  otherwise
provided in  the related  Prospectus Supplement,  the related Agreement  will
require the  Depositor or another  party specified therein to  promptly cause
each such assignment  of Mortgage to  be recorded  in the appropriate  public
office for real  property records, except  in the State  of California or  in
other states where, in the opinion of counsel acceptable to the Trustee, such
recording is  not required to protect  the Trustee's interest  in the related
Whole Loan against the claim of any subsequent transferee or any successor to
or creditor of the Depositor, the  Master Servicer, the relevant Asset Seller
or any other prior holder of the Whole Loan. 

    The  Trustee (or  a  custodian) will  review  such Whole  Loan  documents
within a specified period of days after receipt thereof, and the  Trustee (or
a  custodian)  will hold  such  documents in  trust  for the  benefit  of the
Certificateholders. Unless  otherwise  specified in  the  related  Prospectus
Supplement, if any such document is found  to be missing or defective in  any
material respect, the  Trustee (or such  custodian) shall immediately  notify
the  Master  Servicer  and  the  Depositor, and  the  Master  Servicer  shall
immediately notify the relevant Asset Seller. If the Asset Seller cannot cure
the omission or  defect within a  specified number of  days after receipt  of
such  notice,  then unless  otherwise  specified  in the  related  Prospectus
Supplement, the Asset Seller will be obligated, within a specified  number of
days of receipt of such notice, to repurchase the related Whole Loan from the
Trustee at the Purchase Price or substitute for such Mortgage Loan. There can
be  no  assurance that  an  Asset  Seller  will  fulfill this  repurchase  or
substitution obligation, and  neither the Master  Servicer nor the  Depositor
will be obligated to repurchase or  substitute for such Mortgage Loan if  the
Asset Seller  defaults on its  obligation. Unless otherwise specified  in the
related Prospectus  Supplement,  this repurchase  or substitution  obligation
constitutes  the  sole remedy  available  to  the Certificateholders  or  the
Trustee for omission of, or a material defect in, a constituent  document. To
the extent specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,  in lieu of curing
any omission or  defect in the Asset or repurchasing or substituting for such
Asset, the Asset Seller may agree  to cover any losses suffered by  the Trust
Fund as a result of such breach or defect.

    With respect  to each  Government Security or  MBS in certificated  form,
the Depositor will deliver  or cause to be  delivered to the Trustee  (or the
custodian) the  original  certificate or  other definitive  evidence of  such
Government Security or MBS,  as applicable, together with bond power or other
instruments,  certifications or  documents required  to  transfer fully  such
Government Security or MBS, as applicable, to the Trustee for the  benefit of
the Certificateholders.   With respect to each  Government Security or MBS in
uncertificated or  book-entry form or  held through a  "clearing corporation"
within the meaning of  the UCC, the Depositor and the Trustee will cause such
Government Security or MBS to be registered directly or  on the books of such
clearing  corporation  or of  a  financial intermediary  in the  name  of the
Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders.  Unless otherwise provided
in the related Prospectus Supplement, the related Agreement will require that
either  the Depositor  or the Trustee  promptly cause any  MBS and Government
Securities in certificated form not registered in the name of the  Trustee to
be re-registered, with the applicable persons, in the name of the Trustee. 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; REPURCHASES

    Unless otherwise  provided  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement  the
Depositor  will, with  respect to  each Whole  Loan, make  or assign  certain
representations and  warranties, as  of a specified  date (the  person making
such  representations and warranties,  the "Warrantying Party")  covering, by
way of  example, the  following types  of matters:  (i) the  accuracy of  the
information set forth for such Whole Loan on the schedule of Assets appearing
as an exhibit to the related Agreement; (ii) the existence of title insurance
insuring the  lien priority  of the  Whole Loan;  (iii) the authority  of the
Warrantying  Party to sell  the Whole  Loan; (iv) the  payment status  of the
Whole Loan and the status of payments of taxes, assessments and other charges
affecting  the related  Mortgaged Property;  (v) the  existence of  customary
provisions in  the related Mortgage  Note and Mortgage to  permit realization
against  the  Mortgaged Property  of  the  benefit  of  the security  of  the
Mortgage; and  (vi) the  existence of  hazard and  extended perils  insurance
coverage on the Mortgaged Property. 

    Any  Warrantying Party, if  other than the  Depositor, shall  be an Asset
Seller  or  an  affiliate thereof  or  such  other person  acceptable  to the
Depositor and shall be identified in the related Prospectus Supplement. 

    Representations and  warranties made in respect of  a Whole Loan may have
been made as  of a date prior  to the applicable Cut-off Date.  A substantial
period of time  may have elapsed  between such date and  the date of  initial
issuance of the related series of Certificates evidencing an interest in such
Whole Loan.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
in  the  event  of a  breach  of  any such  representation  or  warranty, the
Warrantying Party will be  obligated to reimburse  the Trust Fund for  losses
caused by any such breach or either cure such breach or repurchase or replace
the affected  Whole Loan  as described below.  Since the  representations and
warranties may not  address events that  may occur following  the date as  of
which they were made, the Warrantying Party will  have a reimbursement, cure,
repurchase or  substitution obligation in connection with  a breach of such a
representation  and warranty  only if  the  relevant event  that causes  such
breach occurs prior to such date.  Such party would have no such  obligations
if the relevant event that causes such breach occurs after such date.

    Unless otherwise  provided  in the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  each
Agreement  will provide  that  the  Master Servicer  and/or  Trustee will  be
required to notify promptly the  relevant Warrantying Party of any  breach of
any representation or warranty  made by it  in respect of  a Whole Loan  that
materially  and  adversely affects  the  value  of  such  Whole Loan  or  the
interests therein of the Certificateholders. If such Warrantying Party cannot
cure such breach within a specified  period following the date on which  such
party  was notified  of  such breach,  then  such Warrantying  Party  will be
obligated to repurchase such Whole Loan  from the Trustee within a  specified
period  from the  date on which  the Warrantying  Party was notified  of such
breach,  at  the  Purchase Price  therefor.  As  to  any  Whole Loan,  unless
otherwise  specified  in  the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  the "Purchase
Price"  is equal  to the sum  of the  unpaid principal balance  thereof, plus
unpaid accrued  interest thereon  at the Mortgage  Rate from  the date  as to
which  interest was last paid to the due  date in the Due Period in which the
relevant  purchase is  to occur,  plus  certain servicing  expenses that  are
reimbursable  to  the Master  Servicer.  If  so  provided in  the  Prospectus
Supplement for a series, a Warrantying Party, rather than repurchase  a Whole
Loan  as to  which a  breach  has occurred,  will have  the option,  within a
specified period  after initial issuance  of such series of  Certificates, to
cause the removal of such  Whole Loan from the  Trust Fund and substitute  in
its place  one or more  other Whole Loans,  in accordance with  the standards
described  in  the related  Prospectus  Supplement.  If  so provided  in  the
Prospectus  Supplement  for  a  series,  a  Warrantying  Party,  rather  than
repurchase or substitute a Whole Loan as to which a breach has occurred, will
have the option to reimburse the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders for any
losses  caused by  such breach.  Unless  otherwise specified  in the  related
Prospectus  Supplement,   this  reimbursement,  repurchase   or  substitution
obligation  will  constitute   the  sole  remedy  available  to   holders  of
Certificates or the Trustee  for a breach of representation  by a Warrantying
Party. 

    Neither the Depositor  (except to the extent  that it is the  Warrantying
Party) nor  the Master Servicer  will be obligated to  purchase or substitute
for a Whole Loan  if a Warrantying Party defaults on its obligation to do so,
and no assurance  can be given that  Warrantying Parties will carry  out such
obligations with respect to Whole Loans. 

    Unless otherwise  provided  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement  the
Warrantying Party will, with respect to a Trust Fund that includes Government
Securities or MBS,  make or assign certain representations  or warranties, as
of a  specified date,  with respect  to such  Government  Securities or  MBS,
covering  (i) the  accuracy  of the  information set  forth  therefor on  the
schedule of Assets appearing as an exhibit to the related Agreement  and (ii)
the authority of  the Warrantying  Party to  sell such Assets.   The  related
Prospectus Supplement will describe the remedies for a breach thereof.

    A Master  Servicer  will  make  certain  representations  and  warranties
regarding  its authority  to  enter  into, and  its  ability  to perform  its
obligations under, the related Agreement. A breach of any such representation
of the Master  Servicer which materially and adversely  affects the interests
of  the Certificateholders  and which  continues unremedied  for thirty  days
after the giving of written  notice of such breach to the  Master Servicer by
the Trustee or  the Depositor, or to  the Master Servicer, the  Depositor and
the Trustee by  the holders of Certificates  evidencing not less than  25% of
the  Voting Rights  (unless  otherwise specified  in  the related  Prospectus
Supplement),  will constitute  an Event  of  Default under  such Pooling  and
Servicing  Agreement. See  "Events  of  Default" and  "Rights  Upon Event  of
Default." 

CERTIFICATE ACCOUNT AND OTHER COLLECTION ACCOUNTS

General

    The  Master Servicer  and/or the  Trustee will,  as to  each Trust  Fund,
establish and maintain or cause to be  established and maintained one or more
separate  accounts for  the  collection  of payments  on  the related  Assets
(collectively,  the "Certificate  Account"),  which  must  be  either  (i) an
account or accounts the  deposits in which are insured by  the Bank Insurance
Fund  or  the Savings  Association  Insurance  Fund  of the  Federal  Deposit
Insurance Corporation  ("FDIC") (to the  limits established by the  FDIC) and
the  uninsured  deposits  in  which  are  otherwise  secured  such  that  the
Certificateholders have a claim with respect to the funds in  the Certificate
Account  or  a  perfected  first   priority  security  interest  against  any
collateral securing such  funds that is superior  to the claims of  any other
depositors or general creditors of the institution with which the Certificate
Account  is maintained  or (ii) otherwise  maintained  with a  bank or  trust
company,  and in  a  manner, satisfactory  to the  Rating Agency  or Agencies
rating any class  of Certificates of such series.  The collateral eligible to
secure  amounts  in the  Certificate  Account  is  limited to  United  States
government securities and other investment grade obligations specified in the
Agreement  ("Permitted Investments"). A Certificate Account may be maintained
as an  interest bearing or a non-interest bearing  account and the funds held
therein may be invested pending  each succeeding Distribution Date in certain
short-term  Permitted Investments. Unless  otherwise provided in  the related
Prospectus Supplement, any  interest or other income  earned on funds  in the
Certificate Account will  be paid  to a  Master Servicer or  its designee  as
additional  servicing compensation. The Certificate Account may be maintained
with  an  institution  that  is  an  affiliate  of  the Master  Servicer,  if
applicable, provided that such institution meets the standards imposed by the
Rating Agency or  Agencies. If permitted by the Rating Agency or Agencies and
so specified in the related  Prospectus Supplement, a Certificate Account may
contain  funds relating  to more  than  one series  of mortgage  pass-through
certificates  and may  contain  other funds  respecting payments  on mortgage
loans belonging  to the Master Servicer or serviced  or master serviced by it
on behalf of others. 

Deposits

    A Master Servicer or  the Trustee will deposit  or cause to be  deposited
in the  Certificate Account  for one or  more Trust Funds  on a  daily basis,
unless otherwise  provided in the  related Agreement, the  following payments
and collections  received, or advances  made, by  the Master Servicer  or the
Trustee or on its behalf subsequent to  the Cut-off Date (other than payments
due on or before the Cut-off Date, and exclusive of any  amounts representing
a Retained Interest): 

    (i) all   payments  on   account   of  principal,   including   principal
prepayments, on the Assets; 

    (ii)     all payments on account of interest on the Assets, including  any
default interest collected, in  each case net of any portion thereof retained
by a Master  Servicer or a Sub-Servicer as its servicing compensation and net
of any Retained Interest; 

    (iii)    all proceeds  of the hazard insurance  policies to be  maintained
in respect of each Mortgaged Property securing a Whole Loan in the Trust Fund
(to  the  extent such  proceeds are  not  applied to  the restoration  of the
property or released to the mortgagor in accordance with the normal servicing
procedures  of a Master Servicer or  the related Sub-Servicer, subject to the
terms   and   conditions  of   the  related   Mortgage  and   Mortgage  Note)
(collectively,  "Insurance  Proceeds")  and all  other  amounts  received and
retained in  connection with the  liquidation of defaulted Mortgage  Loans in
the  Trust  Fund,  by  foreclosure  or  otherwise  ("Liquidation  Proceeds"),
together  with the  net  proceeds on  a  monthly basis  with  respect to  any
Mortgaged  Properties acquired  for  the  benefit  of  Certificateholders  by
foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise;

    (iv)     any amounts  paid under  any instrument  or drawn  from any  fund
that constitutes  Credit Support  for the related  series of  Certificates as
described under "Description of Credit Support"; 

    (v) any  advances   made   as  described   under   "Description  of   the
Certificates--Advances in Respect of Delinquencies"; 

    (vi)     any amounts  paid under  any  Cash Flow  Agreement, as  described
under "Description of the Trust Funds--Cash Flow Agreements"; 

    (vii)    all proceeds  of any  Asset or,  with respect  to  a Whole  Loan,
property acquired  in respect thereof  purchased by the Depositor,  any Asset
Seller  or any  other  specified  person as  described  under "Assignment  of
Assets; Repurchases"  and "Representations and  Warranties; Repurchases," all
proceeds  of  any  defaulted  Mortgage  Loan  purchased  as  described  under
"Realization  Upon Defaulted  Whole Loans,"  and  all proceeds  of any  Asset
purchased  as described under  "Description of the  Certificates Termination"
(also, "Liquidation Proceeds"); 

    (viii)   any amounts paid by  a Master Servicer to cover certain  interest
shortfalls arising out of the prepayment of Whole Loans in the Trust  Fund as
described under "Description of  the Agreements--Retained Interest; Servicing
Compensation and Payment of Expenses"; 

    (ix)     to the extent that  any such item does not constitute  additional
servicing  compensation to  a Master  Servicer,  any payments  on account  of
modification or  assumption fees, late payment charges or Prepayment Premiums
on the Mortgage Assets; 

    (x) all  payments required  to  be deposited  in the  Certificate Account
with  respect  to any  deductible  clause  in  any blanket  insurance  policy
described under "Hazard Insurance Policies"; 
    (xi)     any  amount required to be deposited by a  Master Servicer or the
Trustee in connection with losses realized  on investments for the benefit of
the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, of  funds held in the
Certificate Account; and 

    (xii)    any  other amounts  required to  be deposited in  the Certificate
Account as provided  in the  related Agreement and  described in the  related
Prospectus Supplement. 

Withdrawals

    A  Master  Servicer  or  the  Trustee  may,  from  time  to  time, unless
otherwise  provided in  the related  Agreement and  described in  the related
Prospectus Supplement, make withdrawals from the Certificate Account for each
Trust Fund for any of the following purposes: 

    (i) to make distributions  to the Certificateholders on each Distribution
Date; 

    (ii)     to reimburse a Master Servicer  for unreimbursed amounts advanced
as described under  "Description of the Certificates--Advances in  Respect of
Delinquencies," such reimbursement  to be made out of  amounts received which
were identified  and applied by  the Master Servicer  as late collections  of
interest  (net  of related  servicing  fees  and  Retained Interest)  on  and
principal of  the particular Whole Loans  with respect to which  the advances
were made  or out  of amounts  drawn under  any form  of Credit Support  with
respect to such Whole Loans; 

    (iii)    to reimburse a  Master Servicer for  unpaid servicing fees earned
and  certain unreimbursed servicing  expenses incurred with  respect to Whole
Loans and  properties acquired in  respect thereof, such reimbursement  to be
made  out  of  amounts  that represent  Liquidation  Proceeds  and  Insurance
Proceeds  collected on  the particular  Whole Loans  and properties,  and net
income collected  on the  particular properties, with  respect to  which such
fees were earned or such expenses were incurred or out of amounts drawn under
any form of Credit Support with respect to such Whole Loans and properties; 

    (iv)     to  reimburse a  Master  Servicer for  any advances  described in
clause  (ii) above and any servicing expenses described in clause (iii) above
which, in  the Master Servicer's good faith judgment, will not be recoverable
from  the amounts  described in  clauses (ii) and  (iii), respectively,  such
reimbursement to be made from amounts collected on other Assets or, if and to
the extent so provided by the related  Agreement and described in the related
Prospectus Supplement, just  from that portion of amounts  collected on other
Assets  that is otherwise distributable on one or more classes of Subordinate
Certificates, if any, remain outstanding, and otherwise any outstanding class
of Certificates, of the related series; 

    (v) if and to the extent described in the  related Prospectus Supplement,
to pay a Master Servicer interest accrued on the advances described in clause
(ii) above and the servicing expenses  described in clause (iii) above  while
such remain outstanding and unreimbursed;

    (vi)     to reimburse  a Master Servicer, the  Depositor, or any of  their
respective directors, officers, employees and agents, as the case may be, for
certain  expenses, costs  and liabilities  incurred  thereby, as  and to  the
extent described under  "Certain Matters Regarding a Master  Servicer and the
Depositor"; 

    (vii)    if  and  to  the  extent  described  in  the  related  Prospectus
Supplement, to pay  (or to  transfer to  a separate account  for purposes  of
escrowing for the payment of) the Trustee's fees; 

    (viii)   to  reimburse  the Trustee  or any  of  its directors,  officers,
employees and  agents, as the  case may be,  for certain expenses,  costs and
liabilities incurred thereby,  as and to the extent  described under "Certain
Matters Regarding the Trustee"; 

    (ix)     unless otherwise provided  in the related Prospectus  Supplement,
to pay a Master Servicer,  as additional servicing compensation, interest and
investment  income earned  in  respect  of amounts  held  in the  Certificate
Account; 

    (x) to  pay the  person entitled  thereto any  amounts  deposited in  the
Certificate Account that  were identified and applied by  the Master Servicer
as recoveries of Retained Interest; 

    (xi)     to  pay  for costs  reasonably  incurred  in connection  with the
proper management and maintenance of  any Mortgaged Property acquired for the
benefit  of  Certificateholders  by  foreclosure   or  by  deed  in  lieu  of
foreclosure or otherwise, such payments to be made out of income  received on
such property; 

    (xii)    if one or more elections  have been made to  treat the Trust Fund
or designated portions thereof as a REMIC, to pay any federal, state or local
taxes imposed on the Trust Fund or  its assets or transactions, as and to the
extent  described under  "Certain  Federal Income  Tax Consequences--REMICS--
Prohibited Transactions Tax and Other Taxes"; 

    (xiii)   to  pay for the cost of an independent  appraiser or other expert
in  real  estate  matters retained  to  determine  a fair  sale  price  for a
defaulted Whole Loan or a property acquired  in respect thereof in connection
with the liquidation of such Whole Loan or property; 

    (xiv)    to  pay for  the cost  of various  opinions of  counsel  obtained
pursuant to the related Agreement for the benefit of Certificateholders; 

    (xv)     to pay  for the costs of  recording the related Agreement if such
recordation   materially   and   beneficially   affects   the  interests   of
Certificateholders, provided that such payment shall not constitute a  waiver
with respect to  the obligation of the Warrantying Party to remedy any breach
of representation or warranty under the Agreement; 

    (xvi)    to pay the person  entitled thereto any amounts deposited in  the
Certificate Account in  error, including amounts received on  any Asset after
its removal from the Trust Fund whether by reason of purchase or substitution
as  contemplated by "Assignment  of Assets; Repurchase"  and "Representations
and Warranties; Repurchases" or otherwise; 

    (xvii)   to make any other withdrawals permitted  by the related Agreement
and described in the related Prospectus Supplement; and 

    (xviii)  to   clear  and   terminate  the   Certificate  Account   at  the
termination of the Trust Fund. 

Other Collection Accounts

    Notwithstanding  the foregoing, if so specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the Agreement for any series  of Certificates may provide for the
establishment and maintenance of a separate collection account into which the
Master Servicer or any related Sub-Servicer will deposit on a daily basis the
amounts  described  under  "--Deposits"  above  for one  or  more  series  of
Certificates.  Any amounts on deposit in any such collection account  will be
withdrawn therefrom and deposited into the appropriate Certificate Account by
a  time  specified in  the  related  Prospectus Supplement.    To  the extent
specified in  the related Prospectus  Supplement, any amounts which  could be
withdrawn from  the Certificate  Account as  described under  "--Withdrawals"
above,  may also  be  withdrawn  from  any  such  collection  account.    The
Prospectus Supplement  will set  forth any restrictions  with respect  to any
such   collection  account,   including  investment   restrictions  and   any
restrictions  with respect  to  financial institutions  with  which any  such
collection account may be maintained.

COLLECTION AND OTHER SERVICING PROCEDURES

    The Master Servicer,  directly or through  Sub-Servicers, is required  to
make reasonable  efforts to  collect all scheduled  payments under  the Whole
Loans and  will follow or cause to be  followed such collection procedures as
it would follow  with respect to  mortgage loans that  are comparable to  the
Whole  Loans  and held  for its  own  account, provided  such  procedures are
consistent with (i) the terms of the related Agreement and any related hazard
insurance  policy or  instrument of  Credit Support  included in  the related
Trust  Fund  described  herein  or under  "Description  of  Credit  Support,"
(ii) applicable law and (iii) the general servicing standard specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement  or, if no such  standard is so  specified, its
normal servicing  practices (in  either case,  the "Servicing  Standard"). In
connection therewith, the Master Servicer will be permitted in its discretion
to waive  any late payment  charge or penalty interest  in respect of  a late
Whole Loan payment. 

    Each Master  Servicer will  also be required  to perform other  customary
functions of  a servicer of  comparable loans,  including maintaining  hazard
insurance  policies  as  described  herein  and  in  any  related  Prospectus
Supplement, and filing  and settling claims thereunder; maintaining escrow or
impoundment accounts of mortgagors for  payment of taxes, insurance and other
items  required to  be paid  by  any mortgagor  pursuant to  the  Whole Loan;
processing  assumptions  or substitutions  in  those cases  where  the Master
Servicer  has determined  not to  enforce any applicable  due-on-sale clause;
attempting to  cure delinquencies;  supervising foreclosures;  inspecting and
managing Mortgaged  Properties under certain  circumstances; and  maintaining
accounting records relating to the Whole Loans. Unless otherwise specified in
the  related Prospectus Supplement,  the Master Servicer  will be responsible
for filing and settling claims in respect of particular Whole Loans under any
applicable instrument of Credit Support. See "Description of Credit Support."

    The Master  Servicer may agree to modify, waive  or amend any term of any
Whole Loan in  a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard so long as the
modification, waiver or amendment will not (i) affect the amount or timing of
any scheduled payments  of principal or interest on the Whole Loan or (ii) in
its judgment, materially impair the security for the Whole Loan or reduce the
likelihood of timely payment of amounts due thereon. The Master Servicer also
may agree to  any modification, waiver or  amendment that would so  affect or
impair  the  payments  on, or  the  security  for, a  Whole  Loan  if, unless
otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, (i) in its judgment,
a material  default on the Whole  Loan has occurred  or a payment  default is
imminent and (ii) in its judgment,  such modification, waiver or amendment is
reasonably likely  to produce  a greater recovery  with respect to  the Whole
Loan on a  present value basis than would liquidation. The Master Servicer is
required to notify  the Trustee in the  event of any modification,  waiver or
amendment of any Whole Loan. 

SUB-SERVICERS

    A Master  Servicer may delegate its  servicing obligations in  respect of
the Whole Loans  to third-party servicers (each, a  "Sub-Servicer"), but such
Master  Servicer  will remain  obligated  under the  related  Agreement. Each
sub-servicing  agreement between  a  Master Servicer  and  a Sub-Servicer  (a
"Sub-Servicing Agreement") must  be consistent with the terms  of the related
Agreement and must  provide that, if for  any reason the Master  Servicer for
the related series  of Certificates is no longer acting in such capacity, the
Trustee or  any successor  Master Servicer may  assume the  Master Servicer's
rights and obligations under such Sub-Servicing Agreement.

    Unless  otherwise  provided in  the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  the
Master  Servicer will  be  solely liable  for  all fees  owed  by it  to  any
Sub-Servicer,  irrespective  of whether  the  Master Servicer's  compensation
pursuant to the related Agreement is sufficient to pay such fees.  However, a
Sub- Servicer may be entitled to a  Retained Interest in certain Whole Loans.
Each  Sub-Servicer will  be reimbursed  by  the Master  Servicer for  certain
expenditures which it makes, generally to the same extent the Master Servicer
would  be reimbursed  under an Agreement.  See "Retained  Interest, Servicing
Compensation and Payment of Expenses."

REALIZATION UPON DEFAULTED WHOLE LOANS

    A  mortgagor's failure to  make required payments  may reflect inadequate
income or the diversion of that income from the service of payments due under
the Mortgage Loan,  and may call  into question such  mortgagor's ability  to
make timely  payment of  taxes and to  pay for  necessary maintenance  of the
related   Mortgaged  Property.  Unless  otherwise  provided  in  the  related
Prospectus Supplement, the  Master Servicer is required to  monitor any Whole
Loan  which is  in default,  contact  the mortgagor  concerning the  default,
evaluate whether the  causes of the  default can be  cured over a  reasonable
period without significant impairment of the value of the Mortgaged Property,
initiate  corrective action  in cooperation  with  the mortgagor  if cure  is
likely, inspect the  Mortgaged Property  and take such  other actions as  are
consistent  with the  Servicing Standard.  A significant  period of  time may
elapse before  the Master  Servicer is  able to  assess the  success of  such
corrective action or the need for additional initiatives. 

    The  time   within   which  the   Master  Servicer   makes  the   initial
determination  of appropriate  action, evaluates  the  success of  corrective
action, develops  additional initiatives, institutes  foreclosure proceedings
and actually forecloses (or takes a deed  to a Mortgaged Property in lieu  of
foreclosure)  on  behalf  of the  Certificateholders,  may  vary considerably
depending  on  the  particular  Whole  Loan,  the  Mortgaged   Property,  the
mortgagor, the  presence of an acceptable party to  assume the Whole Loan and
the laws  of the  jurisdiction in  which the  Mortgaged Property  is located.
Under federal bankruptcy law, the Master Servicer in certain cases may not be
permitted to accelerate a Whole Loan or to foreclose on a  Mortgaged Property
for a  considerable period of  time. See "Certain  Legal Aspects of  Mortgage
Loans." 

    Any  Agreement relating  to a  Trust Fund  that includes  Whole Loans may
grant to the  Master Servicer and/or the holder or holders of certain classes
of Certificates a right of first refusal to purchase from the Trust Fund at a
predetermined purchase  price any  such Whole  Loan as to  which a  specified
number  of  scheduled payments  thereunder  are  delinquent. Any  such  right
granted to  the holder  of an Offered  Certificate will  be described  in the
related  Prospectus Supplement. The  related Prospectus Supplement  will also
describe any  such right granted to any  person if the predetermined purchase
price is  less than the  Purchase Price described under  "Representations and
Warranties; Repurchases."

    If  so  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,  the  Master
Servicer may  offer  to  sell  any defaulted  Whole  Loan  described  in  the
preceding paragraph and not otherwise purchased by any person having a  right
of first  refusal with  respect  thereto, if  and  when the  Master  Servicer
determines, consistent  with the Servicing  Standard, that such a  sale would
produce a  greater recovery on a  present value basis than  would liquidation
through foreclosure or similar proceeding. The related Agreement will provide
that any such  offering be  made in  a commercially reasonable  manner for  a
specified period  and that the  Master Servicer accept  the highest cash  bid
received  from any  person  (including  itself, an  affiliate  of the  Master
Servicer or  any Certificateholder)  that constitutes a  fair price  for such
defaulted Whole Loan. In the absence of any bid determined in accordance with
the related  Agreement to be  fair, the  Master Servicer  shall proceed  with
respect to such  defaulted Mortgage Loan  as described below.  Any bid in  an
amount at least equal to  the Purchase Price described under "Representations
and Warranties; Repurchases" will in all cases be deemed fair.

    The Master Servicer, on behalf  of the Trustee, may at any time institute
foreclosure  proceedings,  exercise  any  power  of  sale  contained  in  any
mortgage, obtain a deed in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise acquire title to
a Mortgaged Property  securing a Whole Loan by operation of law or otherwise,
if  such action is  consistent with the  Servicing Standard and  a default on
such  Whole  Loan has  occurred  or, in  the Master  Servicer's  judgment, is
imminent.

     Unless  otherwise  provided in  the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  if
title to any Mortgaged  Property is acquired  by a Trust Fund  as to which  a
REMIC  election has been  made, the Master  Servicer, on behalf  of the Trust
Fund, will be  required to sell  the Mortgaged Property by  the close of  the
third  calendar  year  following  the year  of  acquisition,  unless  (i) the
Internal Revenue Service grants an extension of time to sell such property or
(ii) the Trustee  receives an  opinion of independent  counsel to  the effect
that  the holding of the property  by the Trust Fund  beyond the close of the
third calendar year following the year after  its acquisition will not result
in the imposition of a tax on the Trust Fund or cause the  Trust Fund to fail
to qualify as  a REMIC under  the Code  at any time  that any Certificate  is
outstanding. Subject to  the foregoing, the Master Servicer  will be required
to (i) solicit bids for  any Mortgaged Property so acquired in  such a manner
as  will be reasonably likely  to realize a fair price  for such property and
(ii) accept  the first (and, if multiple bids are contemporaneously received,
the highest) cash bid received from any person that constitutes a fair price.

    The  limitations  imposed   by  the  related  Agreement   and  the  REMIC
provisions of the Code (if a REMIC election has been made with respect to the
related Trust Fund) on the ownership and management of any Mortgaged Property
acquired on behalf of the Trust Fund may result in  the recovery of an amount
less than  the amount that would  otherwise be recovered.  See "Certain Legal
Aspects of Mortgage Loans--Foreclosure."

    If recovery  on a  defaulted Whole Loan  under any related  instrument of
Credit Support  is not  available, the Master  Servicer nevertheless  will be
obligated to  follow  or  cause to  be  followed such  normal  practices  and
procedures as it deems necessary or  advisable to realize upon the  defaulted
Whole Loan.  If the proceeds of any liquidation  of the property securing the
defaulted Whole Loan are  less than the outstanding principal balance  of the
defaulted Whole Loan plus interest accrued thereon at the  Mortgage Rate plus
the  aggregate  amount  of  expenses  incurred  by  the  Master  Servicer  in
connection  with  such proceedings  and  which  are  reimbursable  under  the
Agreement, the  Trust  Fund  will  realize  a loss  in  the  amount  of  such
difference. The  Master Servicer will be entitled to  withdraw or cause to be
withdrawn  from the  Certificate  Account  out  of the  Liquidation  Proceeds
recovered  on any  defaulted Whole Loan,  prior to  the distribution  of such
Liquidation Proceeds to  Certificateholders, amounts representing its  normal
servicing compensation  on the  Whole Loan,  unreimbursed servicing  expenses
incurred with  respect to  the Whole  Loan and  any unreimbursed  advances of
delinquent payments made with respect to the Whole Loan. 

    If  any property securing a defaulted Whole Loan is damaged and proceeds,
if any,  from the related hazard insurance policy are insufficient to restore
the  damaged property to a condition sufficient  to permit recovery under the
related instrument  of Credit  Support, if  any, the  Master Servicer  is not
required to expend  its own funds to  restore the damaged property  unless it
determines   (i) that  such  restoration   will  increase  the   proceeds  to
Certificateholders on  liquidation of the  Whole Loan after  reimbursement of
the  Master Servicer  for its  expenses and  (ii) that such expenses  will be
recoverable by it from related Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds. 

    As servicer of  the Whole Loans, a Master Servicer,  on behalf of itself,
the Trustee  and the Certificateholders,  will present claims to  the obligor
under each  instrument of Credit Support, and will take such reasonable steps
as are necessary  to receive  payment or to  permit recovery thereunder  with
respect to defaulted Whole Loans. 

    If  a  Master  Servicer  or its  designee  recovers  payments  under  any
instrument  of Credit Support with  respect to any  defaulted Whole Loan, the
Master Servicer will  be entitled to withdraw  or cause to be  withdrawn from
the Certificate Account  out of such proceeds, prior  to distribution thereof
to Certificateholders, amounts representing its normal servicing compensation
on such Whole Loan, unreimbursed  servicing expenses incurred with respect to
the Whole Loan and any unreimbursed advances of delinquent payments made with
respect to the  Whole Loan. See "Hazard Insurance  Policies" and "Description
of Credit Support."

HAZARD INSURANCE POLICIES

    Unless  otherwise specified  in the  related Prospectus  Supplement, each
Agreement for a Trust Fund that includes  Whole Loans will require the Master
Servicer to  cause the  mortgagor on  each Whole  Loan to  maintain a  hazard
insurance policy providing for such coverage as is required under the related
Mortgage or, if  any Mortgage permits  the holder thereof  to dictate to  the
mortgagor the  insurance coverage to  be maintained on the  related Mortgaged
Property, then  such coverage as  is consistent with the  Servicing Standard.
Unless  otherwise  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,  such
coverage will be in general in an amount equal to the lesser of the principal
balance owing on such Whole Loan and the amount necessary to fully compensate
for any damage  or loss to  the improvements on  the Mortgaged Property on  a
replacement cost basis, but in either case not less than the amount necessary
to avoid the application of any  co-insurance clause contained in the  hazard
insurance policy.  The ability of the  Master Servicer to assure  that hazard
insurance proceeds are appropriately applied  may be dependent upon its being
named as  an additional insured  under any hazard insurance  policy and under
any other insurance  policy referred to  below, or upon  the extent to  which
information in this regard is  furnished by mortgagors. All amounts collected
by  the Master  Servicer under  any  such policy  (except for  amounts  to be
applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to
the  mortgagor in  accordance  with the  Master  Servicer's normal  servicing
procedures, subject  to the terms and conditions  of the related Mortgage and
Mortgage Note)  will be deposited  in the Certificate Account.  The Agreement
will provide  that the  Master Servicer may  satisfy its obligation  to cause
each  mortgagor to  maintain such  a hazard  insurance policy  by the  Master
Servicer's maintaining a blanket policy insuring against hazard losses on the
Whole Loans. If such blanket policy contains a deductible  clause, the Master
Servicer will be required to deposit in the Certificate Account all sums that
would have been deposited therein but for such clause.

    In  general, the  standard  form of  fire  and extended  coverage  policy
covers physical damage to or destruction of the  improvements of the property
by fire,  lightning, explosion, smoke,  windstorm and hail, and  riot, strike
and civil  commotion, subject to  the conditions and exclusions  specified in
each  policy. Although  the policies  relating  to the  Whole  Loans will  be
underwritten  by different insurers under different  state laws in accordance
with different  applicable  state  forms,  and  therefore  will  not  contain
identical  terms and  conditions, the  basic  terms thereof  are dictated  by
respective state  laws, and  most such policies  typically do  not cover  any
physical  damage resulting from war, revolution, governmental actions, floods
and  other  water-related  causes,  earth  movement  (including  earthquakes,
landslides  and mudflows),  wet  or  dry rot,  vermin,  domestic animals  and
certain other kinds of uninsured risks. 

    The hazard  insurance policies covering the Mortgaged Properties securing
the Whole Loans will typically contain  a co-insurance clause that in  effect
requires  the  insured  at  all  times to  carry  insurance  of  a  specified
percentage  (generally  80% to  90%)  of the  full replacement  value  of the
improvements on  the property  in order  to recover  the full  amount of  any
partial  loss.   If  the  insured's  coverage  falls   below  this  specified
percentage, such  clause generally provides  that the insurer's  liability in
the event  of partial loss does not exceed  the lesser of (i) the replacement
cost of the improvements less physical  depreciation and (ii) such proportion
of  the loss  as  the amount  of  insurance carried  bears  to the  specified
percentage of the full replacement cost of such improvements. 

    Each Agreement for  a Trust Fund that  includes Whole Loans  will require
the Master Servicer to cause the mortgagor on each Whole Loan to maintain all
such other insurance coverage with  respect to the related Mortgaged Property
as is  consistent with the  terms of the  related Mortgage and  the Servicing
Standard,  which insurance  may  typically include  flood  insurance (if  the
related Mortgaged  Property was  located  at the  time  of origination  in  a
federally designated flood area).

    Any  cost  incurred  by  the Master  Servicer  in  maintaining  any  such
insurance policy will  be added to the  amount owing under the  Mortgage Loan
where the  terms of the Mortgage Loan so  permit; provided, however, that the
addition  of  such  cost will  not  be  taken into  account  for  purposes of
calculating the distribution to be made to Certificateholders. Such costs may
be recovered by the Master Servicer or Sub-Servicer, as the case may be, from
the Collection Account, with interest thereon, as provided by the Agreement.

    Under  the  terms  of  the Whole  Loans,  mortgagors  will  generally  be
required  to  present  claims to  insurers  under  hazard insurance  policies
maintained  on the  related  Mortgaged Properties.  The  Master Servicer,  on
behalf  of the  Trustee and  Certificateholders, is  obligated to  present or
cause  to be  presented claims  under any  blanket insurance  policy insuring
against  hazard losses  on  Mortgaged Properties  securing  the Whole  Loans.
However, the  ability  of the  Master  Servicer to  present  or cause  to  be
presented such  claims is dependent upon  the extent to which  information in
this regard is furnished to the Master Servicer by mortgagors.

FIDELITY BONDS AND ERRORS AND OMISSIONS INSURANCE

    Unless  otherwise specified  in the  related Prospectus  Supplement, each
Agreement will require that the Master Servicer obtain and maintain in effect
a  fidelity bond or  similar form  of insurance  coverage (which  may provide
blanket coverage) or any combination thereof insuring against loss occasioned
by fraud,  theft or other  intentional misconduct of the  officers, employees
and  agents of  the Master Servicer.   The  related Agreement will  allow the
Master  Servicer to  self-insure against  loss occasioned  by the  errors and
omissions of the  officers, employees and  agents of  the Master Servicer  so
long as certain criteria set forth in the Agreement are met.

DUE-ON-SALE PROVISIONS

    Certain of the  Whole Loans may contain clauses requiring  the consent of
the  mortgagee  to  any  sale or  other  transfer  of  the  related Mortgaged
Property,  or due-on-sale  clauses  entitling  the  mortgagee  to  accelerate
payment  of the  Whole Loan  upon  any sale,  transfer or  conveyance  of the
related   Mortgaged  Property.  Unless  otherwise  provided  in  the  related
Prospectus Supplement, the Master Servicer will generally enforce any due-on-
sale clause  to the  extent it has  knowledge of  the conveyance  or proposed
conveyance of the underlying  Mortgaged Property and it is entitled  to do so
under applicable  law; provided, however,  that the Master Servicer  will not
take any action in relation  to the enforcement of any  due-on-sale provision
which would  adversely affect  or  jeopardize coverage  under any  applicable
insurance  policy. Unless  otherwise  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus
Supplement, any  fee collected  by or on  behalf of  the Master  Servicer for
entering into an assumption agreement will be retained by or on behalf of the
Master  Servicer as  additional servicing  compensation.  See "Certain  Legal
Aspects of Mortgage Loans Due-on-Sale and Due-on-Encumbrance."

RETAINED INTEREST; SERVICING COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES

    The  Prospectus  Supplement for  a  series of  Certificates  will specify
whether there will  be any Retained Interest  in the Assets, and, if  so, the
initial owner thereof. If so, the Retained Interest will be established  on a
loan-by-loan  basis and  will  be  specified on  an  exhibit  to the  related
Agreement. A "Retained  Interest" in an Asset represents  a specified portion
of the interest payable thereon. The Retained Interest will be  deducted from
mortgagor payments as  received and  will not  be part of  the related  Trust
Fund. 

    Unless otherwise  specified  in the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  the
Master  Servicer's and a  Sub-Servicer's primary servicing  compensation with
respect to a series of Certificates will come from the periodic payment to it
of  a  portion of  the interest  payment  on each  Asset. Since  any Retained
Interest and a Master Servicer's  primary compensation are percentages of the
principal balance  of each  Asset, such amounts  will decrease  in accordance
with the amortization  of the Assets. The Prospectus  Supplement with respect
to  a  series of  Certificates  evidencing interests  in  a  Trust Fund  that
includes Whole Loans may provide that, as additional compensation, the Master
Servicer or the Sub-Servicers may retain all or a portion of assumption fees,
modification fees, late payment charges or Prepayment Premiums collected from
mortgagors and any interest or other income which may be earned on funds held
in  the Certificate  Account or  any  account established  by a  Sub-Servicer
pursuant to the Agreement.

    The  Master  Servicer  may,  to  the   extent  provided  in  the  related
Prospectus Supplement, pay  from its servicing compensation  certain expenses
incurred  in  connection with  its  servicing  and  managing of  the  Assets,
including, without limitation,  payment of the fees and  disbursements of the
Trustee   and  independent  accountants,  payment  of  expenses  incurred  in
connection  with distributions and reports to Certificateholders, and payment
of any other expenses described in the related Prospectus Supplement. Certain
other  expenses,  including   certain  expenses  relating  to   defaults  and
liquidations on the Whole Loans and, to the extent so provided in the related
Prospectus Supplement, interest thereon at  the rate specified therein may be
borne by the Trust Fund.

    If and to  the extent provided in the related  Prospectus Supplement, the
Master  Servicer  may  be  required  to  apply  a portion  of  the  servicing
compensation otherwise payable to it in respect of any Due Period  to certain
interest shortfalls  resulting from  the  voluntary prepayment  of any  Whole
Loans in the  related Trust Fund during such period prior to their respective
due dates therein.

EVIDENCE AS TO COMPLIANCE

    Each Agreement relating to Assets which  include Whole Loans will provide
that on or before  a specified date  in each year,  beginning with the  first
such date  at least  six months  after the  related Cut-off  Date, a  firm of
independent public accountants will furnish a statement to the Trustee to the
effect  that,  on  the  basis  of  the  examination  by  such firm  conducted
substantially  in compliance  with  either  the  Uniform  Single  Attestation
Program for Mortgage  Bankers or the Audit Program for Mortgages serviced for
the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation  ("FHLMC"), the servicing by or on
behalf of the Master  Servicer of mortgage loans under pooling  and servicing
agreements  substantially  similar  to  each  other  (including  the  related
Agreement)  was conducted  in compliance  with the  terms of  such agreements
except  for any  significant exceptions  or errors  in  records that,  in the
opinion of  the firm,  either the  Audit Program  for Mortgages serviced  for
FHLMC, or paragraph 4 of the  Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage
Bankers,  requires it to  report. In  rendering its  statement such  firm may
rely, as to  matters relating to  the direct servicing  of mortgage loans  by
Sub-Servicers,  upon   comparable  statements   for  examinations   conducted
substantially in compliance  with the Uniform Single Attestation  Program for
Mortgage  Bankers or  the  Audit  Program for  Mortgages  serviced for  FHLMC
(rendered within one year  of such statement) of firms of  independent public
accountants with respect to the related Sub-Servicer.

    Each such Agreement will also  provide for delivery to the Trustee, on or
before a specified date  in each year, of  an annual statement signed  by two
officers of the  Master Servicer to the  effect that the Master  Servicer has
fulfilled  its obligations  under  the  Agreement  throughout  the  preceding
calendar year or other specified twelve-month period. 

    Unless otherwise  provided in the  related Prospectus  Supplement, copies
of such annual accountants' statement and such statements of officers will be
obtainable by  Certificateholders without charge upon written  request to the
Master  Servicer  at  the  address   set  forth  in  the  related  Prospectus
Supplement.

CERTAIN MATTERS REGARDING A MASTER SERVICER AND THE DEPOSITOR

    The  Master Servicer,  if any,  or a  servicer for  substantially all the
Whole Loans  under each Agreement  will be  named in  the related  Prospectus
Supplement. The entity  serving as Master Servicer (or  as such servicer) may
be  an affiliate  of  the  Depositor  and  may  have  other  normal  business
relationships with  the Depositor  or the  Depositor's affiliates.  Reference
herein  to the  Master Servicer  shall be  deemed  to be  to the  servicer of
substantially all of the Whole Loans, if applicable.

    Unless otherwise  specified  in the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  the
related Agreement will provide that the  Master Servicer may resign from  its
obligations and duties  thereunder only upon a determination  that its duties
under the Agreement  are no longer permissible under applicable law or are in
material  conflict by  reason of  applicable  law with  any other  activities
carried on by it, the other activities of the Master Servicer so causing such
a conflict being of a  type and nature carried on  by the Master Servicer  at
the date of the  Agreement. No such resignation  will become effective  until
the  Trustee  or a  successor  servicer  has  assumed the  Master  Servicer's
obligations and duties under the Agreement. 

    Unless  otherwise specified  in the  related Prospectus  Supplement, each
Agreement  will  further  provide  that  neither  any  Master  Servicer,  the
Depositor nor any director, officer, employee,  or agent of a Master Servicer
or the Depositor  will be under  any liability to the  related Trust Fund  or
Certificateholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of
any action, in good faith pursuant to the Agreement; provided, however,  that
neither  a  Master  Servicer,  the Depositor  nor  any  such  person will  be
protected against any  breach of a representation, warranty  or covenant made
in such Agreement, or against  any liability specifically imposed thereby, or
against any liability which would  otherwise be imposed by reason of  willful
misfeasance, bad faith or gross  negligence in the performance of obligations
or  duties thereunder or by  reason of reckless  disregard of obligations and
duties  thereunder.  Unless  otherwise specified  in  the  related Prospectus
Supplement, each Agreement will further provide that any Master Servicer, the
Depositor and any director,  officer, employee or agent of a  Master Servicer
or the  Depositor will be  entitled to indemnification  by the  related Trust
Fund  and  will  be held  harmless  against any  loss,  liability  or expense
incurred in connection with any legal action relating to the Agreement or the
Certificates; provided, however, that such indemnification will not extend to
any loss, liability or expense  (i) specifically imposed by such Agreement or
otherwise incidental to the performance of obligations and duties thereunder,
including,  in  the  case  of  a  Master  Servicer,  the  prosecution  of  an
enforcement action  in respect  of any  specific  Whole Loan  or Whole  Loans
(except  as  any   such  loss,  liability  or  expense   shall  be  otherwise
reimbursable  pursuant to such  Agreement); (ii) incurred in  connection with
any breach of a representation, warranty or  covenant made in such Agreement;
(iii) incurred by reason of misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the
performance of  obligations or  duties thereunder, or  by reason  of reckless
disregard of such obligations or duties; (iv) incurred in connection with any
violation of  any state  or federal  securities law;  or (v)  imposed by  any
taxing  authority if  such loss,  liability  or expense  is not  specifically
reimbursable pursuant  to the  terms of the  related Agreement.  In addition,
each  Agreement  will  provide  that  neither any  Master  Servicer  nor  the
Depositor will be under any obligation to  appear in, prosecute or defend any
legal action which is not incidental to its respective responsibilities under
the Agreement  and which  in its opinion  may involve  it in  any expense  or
liability. Any such  Master Servicer or  the Depositor  may, however, in  its
discretion undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable
with  respect to  the Agreement  and  the rights  and duties  of  the parties
thereto  and  the interests  of  the Certificateholders  thereunder.  In such
event, the  legal  expenses  and  costs  of such  action  and  any  liability
resulting  therefrom  will   be  expenses,  costs  and  liabilities   of  the
Certificateholders, and the Master Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may
be, will be entitled to be reimbursed therefor and to charge  the Certificate
Account.

    Any  person into which the Master Servicer or the Depositor may be merged
or consolidated, or any person resulting from any merger  or consolidation to
which  the  Master  Servicer or  the  Depositor  is a  party,  or  any person
succeeding to  the business of the Master Servicer  or the Depositor, will be
the successor of the Master  Servicer or the Depositor,  as the case may  be,
under the related Agreement.

EVENTS OF DEFAULT

    Unless otherwise  provided  in the  related Prospectus  Supplement for  a
Trust Fund  that includes Whole  Loans, Events  of Default under  the related
Agreement will include  (i) any failure by the Master  Servicer to distribute
or cause to be distributed to Certificateholders, or to remit to  the Trustee
for  distribution  to  Certificateholders,  any  required  payment;  (ii) any
failure by  the Master Servicer  duly to observe  or perform in  any material
respect  any of its other covenants or  obligations under the Agreement which
continues unremedied for thirty days after written notice of such failure has
been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee or the Depositor,  or to the
Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee by the holders of Certificates
evidencing not less  than 25%  of the  Voting Rights; (iii) any  breach of  a
representation or  warranty made by  the Master Servicer under  the Agreement
which  materially and adversely  affects the interests  of Certificateholders
and which continues unremedied  for thirty days after written notice  of such
breach has been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee or the Depositor,
or  to the Master Servicer,  the Depositor and the  Trustee by the holders of
Certificates  evidencing  not  less  than  25%  of  the  Voting  Rights;  and
(iv) certain  events  of  insolvency, readjustment  of  debt,  marshalling of
assets and  liabilities or similar proceedings  and certain actions by  or on
behalf of the Master Servicer  indicating its insolvency or inability to  pay
its  obligations. Material  variations  to the  foregoing  Events of  Default
(other than to shorten cure periods or eliminate notice requirements) will be
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement. Unless otherwise specified in
the  related Prospectus  Supplement, the  Trustee shall,  not later  than the
later of 60 days after the occurrence of any event which constitutes or, with
notice  or lapse of time  or both, would  constitute an Event  of Default and
five  days  after  certain  officers  of  the  Trustee  become  aware  of the
occurrence  of such  an event,  transmit  by mail  to the  Depositor  and all
Certificateholders of the applicable series notice of such occurrence, unless
such default shall have been cured or waived. 

RIGHTS UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT

    So long  as an Event  of Default under  an Agreement  remains unremedied,
the  Depositor  or  the Trustee  may,  and  at the  direction  of  holders of
Certificates evidencing not less  than 51% of the Voting Rights,  the Trustee
shall, terminate  all of the  rights and obligations  of the  Master Servicer
under the  Agreement and  in  and to  the Mortgage  Loans  (other than  as  a
Certificateholder or  as the owner  of any Retained Interest),  whereupon the
Trustee will succeed  to all of the responsibilities,  duties and liabilities
of the Master  Servicer under the  Agreement (except that  if the Trustee  is
prohibited  by  law  from  obligating  itself  to  make   advances  regarding
delinquent mortgage  loans,  or  if  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement  so
specifies, then the Trustee will not be  obligated to make such advances) and
will  be  entitled  to similar  compensation  arrangements.  Unless otherwise
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, in the event that the Trustee
is unwilling  or unable so to act,  it may or, at the  written request of the
holders of  Certificates entitled to  at least 51%  of the Voting  Rights, it
shall  appoint,  or  petition  a  court of  competent  jurisdiction  for  the
appointment of, a loan servicing  institution acceptable to the Rating Agency
with a  net worth at the time of such  appointment of at least $15,000,000 to
act as  successor to the  Master Servicer  under the Agreement.  Pending such
appointment,  the Trustee is  obligated to act in  such capacity. The Trustee
and any such  successor may agree upon the servicing compensation to be paid,
which in no event may be greater than the compensation payable to the  Master
Servicer under the Agreement. 

    Unless otherwise  described  in the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  the
holders of  Certificates representing at  least 66 2/3% of  the Voting Rights
allocated to the respective classes of Certificates affected by any Event  of
Default will be entitled to  waive such Event of Default;  provided, however,
that an Event of Default involving a failure to distribute a required payment
to  Certificateholders described in clause (i) under  "Events of Default" may
be waived only by  all of the Certificateholders. Upon any  such waiver of an
Event of Default,  such Event of  Default shall cease  to exist and shall  be
deemed to have been remedied for every purpose under the Agreement. 

    No   Certificateholder  will  have  the  right  under  any  Agreement  to
institute any proceeding with  respect thereto unless such holder  previously
has given to the Trustee written notice of default and  unless the holders of
Certificates evidencing  not less  than 25% of  the Voting  Rights have  made
written request upon the Trustee to institute such proceeding in its own name
as Trustee thereunder  and have offered to the  Trustee reasonable indemnity,
and the Trustee for sixty days has neglected or refused to institute any such
proceeding. The Trustee, however, is  under no obligation to exercise any  of
the trusts  or  powers  vested  in  it  by  any  Agreement  or  to  make  any
investigation  of  matters arising  thereunder  or to  institute,  conduct or
defend any litigation thereunder or in relation thereto at the request, order
or direction of any of the holders of Certificates covered by such Agreement,
unless  such  Certificateholders  have  offered  to  the  Trustee  reasonable
security or indemnity  against the costs, expenses and  liabilities which may
be incurred therein or thereby. 

AMENDMENT

    Each  Agreement  may be  amended  by  the parties  thereto,  without  the
consent of  any of  the holders  of Certificates  covered  by the  Agreement,
(i) to  cure  any  ambiguity,  (ii) to  correct,  modify  or  supplement  any
provision therein which may be inconsistent with any other provision therein,
(iii) to  make any  other provisions  with  respect to  matters or  questions
arising under  the Agreement which  are not inconsistent with  the provisions
thereof,  or  (iv) to comply  with  any  requirements  imposed by  the  Code;
provided  that  such amendment  (other  than  an  amendment for  the  purpose
specified  in clause  (iv) above) will  not (as  evidenced by  an opinion  of
counsel  to  such  effect)  adversely  affect in  any  material  respect  the
interests  of any  holder of  Certificates covered  by the  Agreement. Unless
otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, each  Agreement may
also  be amended  by the  Depositor,  the Master  Servicer, if  any,  and the
Trustee, with  the consent  of the holders  of Certificates  affected thereby
evidencing not less than 51% of the Voting Rights, for any purpose; provided,
however,   that  unless  otherwise   specified  in  the   related  Prospectus
Supplement, no such amendment  may (i) reduce in any manner the  amount of or
delay the  timing of, payments received  or advanced on  Mortgage Loans which
are required to be distributed on any Certificate without the consent  of the
holder of such Certificate, (ii) adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of the holders of  any class of Certificates in a manner other than
as described  in (i), without the consent of  the holders of all Certificates
of such class or  (iii) modify the provisions of such  Agreement described in
this paragraph without the consent of the holders of all Certificates covered
by such  Agreement then outstanding. However,  with respect to any  series of
Certificates as to which a REMIC election is to be made, the Trustee will not
consent to any amendment of the Agreement unless it shall first have received
an  opinion of counsel to  the effect that such amendment  will not result in
the imposition of a tax on the related  Trust Fund or cause the related Trust
Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that  the related Certificates
are outstanding. 

THE TRUSTEE

    The Trustee under each Agreement will be  named in the related Prospectus
Supplement.  The  commercial  bank,  national  banking  association,  banking
corporation  or  trust  company  serving   as  Trustee  may  have  a  banking
relationship  with the  Depositor  and  its affiliates  and  with any  Master
Servicer and its affiliates. 

DUTIES OF THE TRUSTEE

    The  Trustee  will  make  no  representations   as  to  the  validity  or
sufficiency  of any  Agreement,  the  Certificates or  any  Asset or  related
document and is not accountable for the use or application by or on behalf of
any Master Servicer of any funds paid to the Master Servicer or its  designee
in respect of  the Certificates or the Assets, or deposited into or withdrawn
from the  Certificate Account or  any other  account by or  on behalf of  the
Master Servicer. If no  Event of Default has occurred and  is continuing, the
Trustee is required to perform  only those duties specifically required under
the related  Agreement. However,  upon receipt of  the various  certificates,
reports or other instruments  required to be furnished to it,  the Trustee is
required to examine such documents  and to determine whether they conform  to
the requirements of the Agreement. 

CERTAIN MATTERS REGARDING THE TRUSTEE

    Unless otherwise  specified  in the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  the
Trustee and any  director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee shall be
entitled  to indemnification  out of  the Certificate  Account for  any loss,
liability  or expense  (including costs  and expenses  of litigation,  and of
investigation,  counsel  fees,   damages,  judgments  and  amounts   paid  in
settlement)  incurred  in  connection with  the  Trustee's  (i) enforcing its
rights and  remedies and protecting  the interests, and enforcing  the rights
and remedies, of the Certificateholders during the continuance of an Event of
Default, (ii) defending  or prosecuting  any legal action  in respect  of the
related Agreement or  series of  Certificates, (iii) being  the mortgagee  of
record with  respect to the Mortgage Loans  in a Trust Fund and  the owner of
record with respect to any Mortgaged Property acquired in respect thereof for
the  benefit of Certificateholders, or  (iv) acting or refraining from acting
in  good  faith at  the direction  of the  holders of  the related  series of
Certificates entitled  to not less than 25% (or  such higher percentage as is
specified in the related  Agreement with respect to any particular matter) of
the  Voting   Rights  for   such  series;   provided,   however,  that   such
indemnification  will not  extend  to  any loss,  liability  or expense  that
constitutes  a specific  liability of  the  Trustee pursuant  to the  related
Agreement, or to any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful
misfeasance,  bad faith  or negligence  on  the part  of the  Trustee  in the
performance of  its obligations and  duties thereunder,  or by reason  of its
reckless  disregard of  such obligations or  duties, or  as may arise  from a
breach  of any  representation,  warranty  or covenant  of  the Trustee  made
therein. 

RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL OF THE TRUSTEE

    The Trustee may at any  time resign from its obligations and duties under
an Agreement by  giving written notice  thereof to the Depositor,  the Master
Servicer, if any,  and all Certificateholders. Upon receiving  such notice of
resignation,  the  Depositor is  required  promptly  to appoint  a  successor
trustee acceptable  to the Master Servicer,  if any. If no  successor trustee
shall have been  so appointed and  have accepted  appointment within 30  days
after the  giving of such  notice of resignation,  the resigning  Trustee may
petition  any  court of  competent  jurisdiction  for  the appointment  of  a
successor trustee. 

    If  at any  time the Trustee  shall cease to  be eligible  to continue as
such under the related Agreement, or if at  any time the Trustee shall become
incapable  of  acting, or  shall  be adjudged  bankrupt  or  insolvent, or  a
receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any  public
officer shall take  charge or control of  the Trustee or  of its property  or
affairs for the purpose of  rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then
the  Depositor  may  remove  the  Trustee and  appoint  a  successor  trustee
acceptable to the Master Servicer, if any. Holders of the Certificates of any
series entitled to at least  51% of the Voting Rights for such  series may at
any time remove the Trustee without cause and appoint a successor trustee.

    Any resignation or removal of the Trustee  and appointment of a successor
trustee shall  not become  effective until acceptance  of appointment  by the
successor trustee.

                        DESCRIPTION OF CREDIT SUPPORT

GENERAL

    For  any series  of Certificates,  Credit  Support may  be provided  with
respect to one  or more classes thereof or the related Assets. Credit Support
may  be  in  the  form  of  the  subordination  of  one  or  more classes  of
Certificates,  letters  of   credit,  insurance  policies,  guarantees,   the
establishment of  one  or more  reserve  funds or  another method  of  Credit
Support described in the related Prospectus Supplement, or any combination of
the  foregoing. If so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, any form
of Credit Support may be structured  so as to be drawn upon by  more than one
series to the extent described therein. 

    Unless  otherwise provided  in  the related  Prospectus Supplement  for a
series  of  Certificates, the  Credit  Support  will  not provide  protection
against all risks  of loss  and will  not guarantee repayment  of the  entire
Certificate Balance  of the Certificates  and interest thereon. If  losses or
shortfalls occur that exceed the amount covered by Credit Support or that are
not covered  by Credit Support, Certificateholders will  bear their allocable
share of deficiencies. Moreover, if a form of Credit Support covers more than
one series of Certificates (each, a "Covered Trust"), holders of Certificates
evidencing interests in  any of such  Covered Trusts will  be subject to  the
risk that  such  Credit Support  will be  exhausted by  the  claims of  other
Covered Trusts prior  to such  Covered Trust  receiving any  of its  intended
share of such coverage. 

    If Credit  Support is provided  with respect  to one  or more classes  of
Certificates  of a  series, or  the  related Assets,  the related  Prospectus
Supplement  will  include a  description  of  (a) the  nature and  amount  of
coverage under such Credit Support,  (b) any conditions to payment thereunder
not otherwise described  herein, (c) the conditions (if any)  under which the
amount of coverage under such Credit  Support may be reduced and under  which
such  Credit Support  may  be  terminated or  replaced  and (d) the  material
provisions  relating  to  such  Credit  Support.  Additionally,  the  related
Prospectus Supplement will set forth  certain information with respect to the
obligor  under  any  instrument  of  Credit  Support, including  (i) a  brief
description of its principal business activities, (ii) its principal place of
business,  place of  incorporation and  the  jurisdiction under  which it  is
chartered or  licensed to do  business, (iii) if applicable, the  identity of
regulatory agencies that  exercise primary jurisdiction  over the conduct  of
its  business   and  (iv) its  total   assets,  and   its  stockholders'   or
policyholders'  surplus, if  applicable,  as  of the  date  specified in  the
Prospectus Supplement. See "Risk Factors--Credit Support Limitations."

SUBORDINATE CERTIFICATES

    If  so  specified in  the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  one  or  more
classes of Certificates  of a series may be  Subordinate Certificates. To the
extent  specified in  the related  Prospectus Supplement,  the rights  of the
holders of Subordinate Certificates to receive distributions of principal and
interest  from the  Certificate  Account  on any  Distribution  Date will  be
subordinated  to such rights  of the  holders of  Senior Certificates.  If so
provided in the  related Prospectus Supplement, the subordination  of a class
may apply only in the event of (or may be limited to) certain types of losses
or  shortfalls. The related Prospectus  Supplement will set forth information
concerning the amount  of subordination of a class or  classes of Subordinate
Certificates in a series, the  circumstances in which such subordination will
be applicable and  the manner, if any,  in which the amount  of subordination
will be effected. 

CROSS-SUPPORT PROVISIONS

    If  the  Assets  for a  series  are  divided into  separate  groups, each
supporting a separate  class or classes  of Certificates of a  series, credit
support   may  be  provided   by  cross-support  provisions   requiring  that
distributions be  made  on Senior  Certificates evidencing  interests in  one
group of  Mortgage Assets prior to distributions  on Subordinate Certificates
evidencing interests in a different group of Mortgage Assets within the Trust
Fund. The  Prospectus Supplement for  a series that includes  a cross-support
provision  will  describe  the  manner  and   conditions  for  applying  such
provisions.

INSURANCE OR GUARANTEES WITH RESPECT TO THE WHOLE LOANS

    If  so   provided  in   the  Prospectus  Supplement   for  a  series   of
Certificates, the Whole Loans  in the related Trust Fund will  be covered for
various default risks by insurance policies or guarantees. A copy of any such
material instrument  for a  series will be  filed with  the Commission  as an
exhibit to  a Current  Report  on Form  8-K to  be filed  within  15 days  of
issuance of the Certificates of the related series.

LETTER OF CREDIT

    If  so   provided  in   the  Prospectus  Supplement   for  a  series   of
Certificates,  deficiencies in amounts otherwise payable on such Certificates
or certain classes thereof  will be covered by one or more letters of credit,
issued  by a  bank  or  financial institution  specified  in such  Prospectus
Supplement (the "L/C Bank").  Under a letter of credit, the L/C  Bank will be
obligated to honor draws thereunder in  an aggregate fixed dollar amount, net
of   unreimbursed  payments  thereunder,  generally  equal  to  a  percentage
specified in  the related  Prospectus Supplement  of the aggregate  principal
balance of the Mortgage Assets on the related  Cut-off Date or of the initial
aggregate Certificate Balance of one  or more classes of Certificates.  If so
specified  in the  related Prospectus  Supplement, the  letter of  credit may
permit draws in the event of only certain types of losses and shortfalls. The
amount available under the letter of credit will, in all cases, be reduced to
the  extent of  the unreimbursed  payments  thereunder and  may otherwise  be
reduced as described in the related Prospectus Supplement. The obligations of
the L/C Bank under  the letter of credit for each series of Certificates will
expire  at the  earlier  of  the date  specified  in  the related  Prospectus
Supplement or the termination of the Trust Fund. A copy of any such letter of
credit  for a series  will be filed  with the Commission  as an  exhibit to a
Current Report  on Form 8-K  to be filed  within 15 days  of issuance of  the
Certificates of the related series. 

INSURANCE POLICIES AND SURETY BONDS

    If  so   provided  in   the  Prospectus  Supplement   for  a  series   of
Certificates,  deficiencies in amounts otherwise payable on such Certificates
or  certain classes  thereof will  be  covered by  insurance policies  and/or
surety bonds  provided by one or  more insurance companies or  sureties. Such
instruments may cover, with respect to one or more classes of Certificates of
the   related  series,   timely  distributions   of   interest  and/or   full
distributions  of  principal  on  the   basis  of  a  schedule  of  principal
distributions  set forth  in or  determined in  the  manner specified  in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  A copy  of any such  instrument for a  series
will be filed with the Commission  as an exhibit to a Current Report  on Form
8-K  to  be filed  with the  Commission  within 15  days  of issuance  of the
Certificates of the related series. 

RESERVE FUNDS

    If  so   provided  in   the  Prospectus  Supplement   for  a  series   of
Certificates,  deficiencies in amounts otherwise payable on such Certificates
or certain classes  thereof will be covered  by one or more  reserve funds in
which cash,  a letter of  credit, Permitted Investments,  a demand note  or a
combination thereof  will be deposited, in  the amounts so  specified in such
Prospectus Supplement. The reserve funds for a series may also be funded over
time by depositing  therein a specified amount of  the distributions received
on the related Assets as specified in the related Prospectus Supplement. 

    Amounts on deposit in  any reserve fund for  a series, together with  the
reinvestment income thereon, if any, will be applied for the purposes, in the
manner, and to  the extent specified in the related  Prospectus Supplement. A
reserve  fund  may   be  provided  to  increase  the   likelihood  of  timely
distributions  of  principal of  and  interest  on  the Certificates.  If  so
specified  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,  reserve  funds  may  be
established  to provide  limited  protection against  only  certain types  of
losses and shortfalls. Following each  Distribution Date amounts in a reserve
fund  in  excess of  any  amount required  to  be maintained  therein  may be
released from  the  reserve fund  under  the  conditions and  to  the  extent
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement and will not be  available for
further application to the Certificates. 

    Moneys  deposited in  any Reserve  Funds  will be  invested in  Permitted
Investments,   except  as  otherwise  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus
Supplement.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
any reinvestment income or other gain from such investments will be  credited
to the related Reserve Fund for such series, and any loss resulting from such
investments will be charged to such Reserve Fund. However, such income may be
payable  to  any related  Master  Servicer  or  another service  provider  as
additional compensation. The Reserve Fund, if any, for a series will not be a
part of  the Trust Fund unless otherwise  specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement. 

    Additional information concerning  any Reserve Fund will be set  forth in
the  related Prospectus  Supplement, including  the  initial balance  of such
Reserve Fund, the balance required to be  maintained in the Reserve Fund, the
manner in which  such required balance will decrease over time, the manner of
funding such  Reserve Fund, the purposes for which  funds in the Reserve Fund
may  be  applied to  make  distributions  to  Certificateholders and  use  of
investment earnings from the Reserve Fund, if any. 

CREDIT SUPPORT WITH RESPECT TO MBS

    If  so   provided  in   the  Prospectus  Supplement   for  a  series   of
Certificates, the  MBS in the  related Trust  Fund and/or the  Mortgage Loans
underlying such MBS  may be covered  by one  or more of  the types of  Credit
Support described herein. The related  Prospectus Supplement will specify  as
to each  such form  of Credit Support  the information  indicated above  with
respect thereto, to the extent such information is material and available. 

                   CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS OF MORTGAGE LOANS

    The  following  discussion  contains  summaries,  which  are  general  in
nature,   of  certain  legal  aspects   of  loans  secured  by  single-family
residential properties.  Because such legal aspects are governed primarily by
applicable state law (which laws  may differ substantially), the summaries do
not  purport to be complete nor to  reflect the laws of any particular state,
nor to  encompass  the laws  of all  states  in which  the  security for  the
Mortgage Loans is situated. The summaries are qualified in their entirety  by
reference to  the applicable  federal and state  laws governing  the Mortgage
Loans. See "Description of the Trust Funds--Assets." 

GENERAL

    All  of the Mortgage  Loans are  loans evidenced  by a  note or  bond and
secured by  instruments granting a  security interest in real  property which
may be  mortgages, deeds of  trust, security deeds  or deeds to  secure debt,
depending upon  the prevailing  practice and law  in the  state in  which the
Mortgaged Property is located. Mortgages, deeds of trust and  deeds to secure
debt are herein collectively referred to as "mortgages." Any of the foregoing
types of mortgages will create a lien upon, or grant a title interest in, the
subject property,  the priority  of which  will depend  on the  terms of  the
particular  security instrument, as  well as separate,  recorded, contractual
arrangements with  others holding  interests in the  mortgaged property,  the
knowledge  of  the  parties  to such  instrument  as  well  as  the order  of
recordation of  the instrument  in the  appropriate public  recording office.
However,  recording does not  generally establish priority  over governmental
claims for real estate taxes and  assessments and other charges imposed under
governmental police powers. 

TYPES OF MORTGAGE INSTRUMENTS

    A  mortgage either creates a lien against  or constitutes a conveyance of
real property between  two parties-a mortgagor (the borrower  and usually the
owner of the subject property) and  a mortgagee (the lender). In contrast,  a
deed of trust is a three-party instrument, among a trustor (the equivalent of
a mortgagor), a  trustee to whom  the mortgaged property  is conveyed, and  a
beneficiary (the lender) for whose benefit the conveyance is made. As used in
this  Prospectus, unless the context otherwise requires, "mortgagor" includes
the trustor  under a deed of trust  and a grantor under a  security deed or a
deed  to  secure  debt. Under  a  deed  of trust,  the  mortgagor  grants the
property, irrevocably  until the  debt is paid,  in trust,  generally with  a
power of sale as security for the indebtedness evidenced by the related note.
A  deed to  secure debt  typically has  two parties. By  executing a  deed to
secure debt, the  grantor conveys title to,  as opposed to merely  creating a
lien  upon,  the subject  property  to the  grantee  until such  time  as the
underlying debt is repaid, generally with a power of sale as security for the
indebtedness evidenced  by the related  mortgage note. In case  the mortgagor
under  a mortgage is a land trust, there would be an additional party because
legal title  to the property  is held by  a land trustee  under a land  trust
agreement for the benefit of the mortgagor. At origination of a mortgage loan
involving a land trust, the mortgagor executes a separate undertaking to make
payments on  the mortgage note.  The mortgagee's authority under  a mortgage,
the  trustee's authority  under a deed  of trust and  the grantee's authority
under a deed  to secure debt are  governed by the  express provisions of  the
mortgage, the law of the state in which the real property is located, certain
federal laws (including, without limitation, the Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil
Relief Act of  1940) and, in some  cases, in deed of  trust transactions, the
directions of the beneficiary. 

INTEREST IN REAL PROPERTY

    The  real property covered by a mortgage, deed of trust, security deed or
deed to  secure debt is most often  the fee estate in  land and improvements.
However, such  an instrument  may encumber other  interests in  real property
such as a tenant's interest in a lease of land  or improvements, or both, and
the  leasehold estate  created  by such  lease.   An  instrument covering  an
interest  in  real  property  other  than the  fee  estate  requires  special
provisions in the instrument creating such interest or in the  mortgage, deed
of trust, security  deed or  deed to  secure debt, to  protect the  mortgagee
against  termination of  such interest  before the  mortgage, deed  of trust,
security deed or deed to secure debt is paid.  Unless otherwise  specified in
the  Prospectus Supplement,  the  Depositor  or the  Asset  Seller will  make
certain representations and  warranties in the Agreement with  respect to any
Mortgage Loans that are  secured by an interest in a leasehold  estate.  Such
representation  and warranties,  if  applicable,  will be  set  forth in  the
Prospectus Supplement.

COOPERATIVE LOANS

    If  specified  in the  Prospectus  Supplement  relating to  a  series  of
Offered  Certificate,  the Mortgage  Loans  may also  consist  of cooperative
apartment loans ("Cooperative Loans") secured by security interests in shares
issued  by a  cooperative housing  corporation (a  "Cooperative") and  in the
related  proprietary leases or occupancy agreements granting exclusive rights
to  occupy specific  dwelling  units  in the  cooperatives'  buildings.   The
security agreement will create a lien upon, or grant a title interest in, the
property which it covers, the priority  of which will depend on the  terms of
the particular security  agreement as well as the order of recordation of the
agreement in the appropriate recording office.  Such a lien or title interest
is  not prior  to the lien  for real  estate taxes and  assessments and other
charges imposed under governmental police powers.

     Each  cooperative owns  in fee  or has a  leasehold interest  in all the
real  property and  owns  in fee  or  leases the  building  and all  separate
dwelling units therein.  The cooperative is directly responsible for property
management  and,  in  most  cases,   payment  of  real  estate  taxes,  other
governmental impositions and hazard and  liability insurance.  If there  is a
blanket  mortgage  or mortgages  on  the  cooperative  apartment building  or
underlying land, as  is generally  the case,  or an underlying  lease of  the
land,  as  is  the  case in  some  instances,  the  cooperative,  as property
mortgagor,  or lessee, as  the case may  be, is also  responsible for meeting
these  mortgage or  rental obligations.    A blanket  mortgage is  ordinarily
incurred by  the cooperative  in connection with  either the  construction or
purchase of the  cooperative's apartment building or obtaining  of capital by
the cooperative.   The interest of the  occupant under proprietary leases  or
occupancy  agreements  as to  which  that  cooperative  is the  landlord  are
generally subordinate to the interest of the holder of a blanket mortgage and
to the interest of the holder of a land lease.  If  the cooperative is unable
to meet the  payment obligations  (i) arising under  a blanket mortgage,  the
mortgagee holding  a blanket  mortgage could foreclose  on that  mortgage and
terminate all subordinate proprietary leases and occupancy agreements or (ii)
arising under its land lease, the holder of the landlord's interest under the
land  lease could  terminate it  and all  subordinate proprietary  leases and
occupancy agreements.   Also, a blanket mortgage on a cooperative may provide
financing in  the form  of a mortgage  that does not  fully amortize,  with a
significant portion of principal being due in  one final payment at maturity.
The  inability of the cooperative to  refinance a mortgage and its consequent
inability  to  make  such final  payment  could lead  to  foreclosure  by the
mortgagee.  Similarly, a land lease has an expiration date and  the inability
of the cooperative to extend its term or, in the alternative, to purchase the
land could lead to termination of the cooperatives's interest in the property
and termination of all proprietary leases and occupancy agreement.  In either
event, a foreclosure by  the holder of a blanket mortgage  or the termination
of the underlying  lease could eliminate or significantly  diminish the value
of any  collateral  held by  the  lender that  financed  the purchase  by  an
individual tenant  stockholder of cooperative shares  or, in the case  of the
Mortgage Loans, the collateral securing the Cooperative Loans.

    The cooperative  is owned by  tenant-stockholders who,  through ownership
of stock or shares in the corporation, receive proprietary lease or occupancy
agreements   which  confer  exclusive   rights  to  occupy   specific  units.
Generally, a tenant-stockholder of a  cooperative must make a monthly payment
to  the cooperative representing such tenant-stockholder's  pro rata share of
the cooperative's  payments for  its blanket mortgage,  real property  taxes,
maintenance expenses  and other capital  or ordinary expenses.   An ownership
interest  in a  cooperative and  accompanying occupancy  rights are  financed
through a cooperative  share loan evidenced by a promissory  note and secured
by an assignment  of and a  security interest in  the occupancy agreement  or
proprietary lease and a security  interest in the related cooperative shares.
The  lender  generally  takes  possession  of the  share  certificate  and  a
counterpart of the  proprietary lease or occupancy agreement  and a financing
statement  covering the  proprietary  lease or  occupancy  agreement and  the
cooperative shares  is filed in  the appropriate  state and local  offices to
perfect the lender's interest in its collateral.   Subject to the limitations
discussed below, upon  default of the tenant-stockholder, the  lender may sue
for judgment on the promissory note, dispose of the collateral at a public or
private  sale  or   otherwise  proceed  against  the  collateral  or  tenant-
stockholder as an  individual as provided in the  security agreement covering
the assignment of the proprietary lease or occupancy agreement and the pledge
of cooperative shares.  See "Foreclosure--Cooperatives" below.

FORECLOSURE

General

    Foreclosure is  a legal  procedure that allows  the mortgagee to  recover
its  mortgage debt by enforcing its rights and available legal remedies under
the  mortgage. If  the mortgagor  defaults in  payment or performance  of its
obligations  under the  note  or mortgage,  the mortgagee  has  the right  to
institute foreclosure  proceedings to sell  the mortgaged property  at public
auction to satisfy the indebtedness. 

    Foreclosure  procedures with  respect  to the  enforcement of  a mortgage
vary from  state to state. Two primary methods  of foreclosing a mortgage are
judicial foreclosure and non-judicial foreclosure pursuant to a power of sale
granted  in the  mortgage  instrument. There  are  several other  foreclosure
procedures  available in  some states  that are  either infrequently  used or
available only in certain limited circumstances, such as strict foreclosure. 

Judicial Foreclosure

    A  judicial  foreclosure  proceeding  is  conducted  in  a  court  having
jurisdiction  over the mortgaged property. Generally, the action is initiated
by the service  of legal  pleadings upon  all parties having  an interest  of
record in  the real  property. Delays  in completion  of the foreclosure  may
occasionally  result from  difficulties  in  locating  defendants.  When  the
lender's  right to  foreclose  is  contested, the  legal  proceedings can  be
time-consuming.  Upon  successful   completion  of  a   judicial  foreclosure
proceeding, the court generally issues a judgment of foreclosure and appoints
a  referee  or  other officer  to  conduct  a public  sale  of  the mortgaged
property, the proceeds  of which are used to satisfy the judgment. Such sales
are made in accordance with procedures that vary from state to state. 

Equitable Limitations on Enforceability of Certain Provisions

    United  States  courts  have  traditionally  imposed   general  equitable
principles to limit the remedies available  to a mortgagee in connection with
foreclosure. These equitable principles are generally designed to relieve the
mortgagor from the legal effect of mortgage defaults, to the extent that such
effect is perceived as harsh or  unfair. Relying on such principles, a  court
may  alter the specific terms of a  loan to the extent it considers necessary
to prevent or  remedy an injustice, undue oppression or  overreaching, or may
require  the  lender  to  undertake  affirmative  and  expensive  actions  to
determine the  cause of the  mortgagor's default and the  likelihood that the
mortgagor will be  able to  reinstate the  loan. In some  cases, courts  have
substituted their  judgment for the  lender's and have required  that lenders
reinstate  loans  or  recast  payment   schedules  in  order  to  accommodate
mortgagors who are suffering from  a temporary financial disability. In other
cases, courts  have  limited the  right of  the lender  to  foreclose if  the
default under the  mortgage is not  monetary, e.g., the  mortgagor failed  to
maintain the mortgaged property adequately or the mortgagor executed a junior
mortgage on the mortgaged property. The  exercise by the court of its  equity
powers will depend on the individual  circumstances of each case presented to
it. Finally, some courts have been faced with the issue of whether federal or
state  constitutional provisions reflecting due process concerns for adequate
notice   require   that  a   mortgagor   receive   notice  in   addition   to
statutorily-prescribed minimum notice.  For the most  part, these cases  have
upheld  the reasonableness  of the  notice provisions  or have  found  that a
public sale under a mortgage providing  for a power of sale does not  involve
sufficient  state  action   to  afford  constitutional  protections   to  the
mortgagor. 

Non-Judicial Foreclosure/Power of Sale

    Foreclosure  of  a   deed  of  trust  is  generally  accomplished   by  a
non-judicial trustee's sale pursuant to the power of sale granted in the deed
of trust. A  power of sale  is typically granted in  a deed of trust.  It may
also be  contained in any other type of mortgage  instrument. A power of sale
allows  a non-judicial  public sale  to  be conducted  generally following  a
request from the beneficiary/lender  to the trustee to sell the property upon
any  default by the  mortgagor under  the terms of  the mortgage  note or the
mortgage instrument and after notice of sale is given in accordance  with the
terms of the  mortgage instrument, as well  as applicable state law.  In some
states,  prior to such sale, the trustee under  a deed of trust must record a
notice of default and notice of sale and  send a copy to the mortgagor and to
any other party who has recorded a request for a copy of  a notice of default
and  notice of  sale. In addition,  in some  states the trustee  must provide
notice to any other party having an interest of record  in the real property,
including junior  lienholders.  A notice  of sale must be posted  in a public
place and, in most states, published for a specified period of time in one or
more newspapers. The mortgagor  or junior lienholder may then have the right,
during a reinstatement period required in some states, to cure the default by
paying the  entire actual amount  in arrears (without acceleration)  plus the
expenses incurred in enforcing the obligation. In other states, the mortgagor
or the junior lienholder is not provided  a period to reinstate the loan, but
has  only the  right to pay  off the  entire debt to  prevent the foreclosure
sale.  Generally, the  procedure for  public  sale, the  parties entitled  to
notice,  the  method of  giving notice  and the  applicable time  periods are
governed by  state law and  vary among the  states. Foreclosure of  a deed to
secure debt is also generally accomplished by a non-judicial sale similar  to
that required by a deed of trust, except that the lender or its agent, rather
than a trustee, is typically empowered to perform the sale in accordance with
the terms of the deed to secure debt and applicable law. 

Public Sale

    A  third party  may be  unwilling to purchase  a mortgaged  property at a
public  sale because  of  the difficulty  in determining  the  value of  such
property at  the time of sale, due to,  among other things, redemption rights
which may exist and the possibility of physical deterioration of the property
during the foreclosure  proceedings. For these reasons, it  is common for the
lender to purchase the mortgaged property for an amount equal to or less than
the underlying  debt and  accrued and  unpaid interest  plus the expenses  of
foreclosure. Generally,  state law controls  the amount of  foreclosure costs
and expenses  which may be recovered by a  lender. Thereafter, subject to the
mortgagor's right in some states to remain in possession during  a redemption
period, if applicable, the lender will  become the owner of the property  and
have both the  benefits and burdens of  ownership of the  mortgaged property.
For example, the  lender will become obligated to pay  taxes, obtain casualty
insurance and to  make such repairs  at its own  expense as are  necessary to
render the  property suitable for  sale. The lender will  commonly obtain the
services  of  a  real  estate  broker  and  pay  the  broker's  commission in
connection with the  sale of the property. Depending  upon market conditions,
the ultimate proceeds of the sale of the  property may not equal the lender's
investment in the  property.  Moreover, a lender  commonly incurs substantial
legal  fees  and  court  costs  in acquiring  a  mortgaged  property  through
contested  foreclosure and/or bankruptcy  proceedings.  Generally,  state law
controls  the amount of foreclosure  expenses and costs, including attorneys'
fees, that may be recovered by a lender.

    A junior mortgagee may not foreclose on the  property securing the junior
mortgage unless it forecloses subject to senior mortgages and any other prior
liens, in  which  case it  may be  obliged  to make  payments on  the  senior
mortgages to  avoid their  foreclosure. In  addition, in the  event that  the
foreclosure of a junior mortgage  triggers the enforcement of a "due-on-sale"
clause contained in  a senior mortgage, the junior mortgagee  may be required
to pay  the full  amount of  the senior  mortgage to  avoid its  foreclosure.
Accordingly, with respect  to those Mortgage  Loans, if any, that  are junior
mortgage  loans, if the lender purchases the property the lender's title will
be  subject to  all senior  mortgages, prior  liens and  certain governmental
liens.

    The proceeds  received  by  the referee  or  trustee  from the  sale  are
applied  first  to  the  costs,  fees  and  expenses  of  sale  and  then  in
satisfaction of the indebtedness secured by the mortgage under which the sale
was conducted. Any proceeds  remaining after satisfaction of  senior mortgage
debt are generally payable to the holders of junior mortgages and other liens
and claims  in order of  their priority, whether or  not the mortgagor  is in
default. Any additional proceeds are generally payable to the mortgagor.  The
payment of the proceeds to the  holders of junior mortgages may occur in  the
foreclosure  action  of  the  senior  mortgage  or   a  subsequent  ancillary
proceeding or  may require the  institution of separate legal  proceedings by
such holders.

REO Properties

    If title to  any Mortgaged Property is acquired by  the Trustee on behalf
of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer or any related Sub-servicer or
the Special Servicer, on behalf of such holders, will be required to sell the
Mortgaged Property by the close of the third calendar year following the year
of acquisition, unless  (i) the Internal Revenue Service  grants an extension
of  time to  sell such property  (an "REO  Extension") or (ii)  it obtains an
opinion of  counsel generally to the effect that  the holding of the property
beyond the close  of the third calendar  year after its acquisition  will not
result in  the imposition  of a  tax on  the Trust  Fund or  cause any  REMIC
created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to fail to qualify as
a REMIC under the Code.  Subject to the foregoing, the Master Servicer or any
related Sub-servicer  or the Special  Servicer will generally be  required to
solicit bids for any Mortgaged Property so  acquired in such a manner as will
be reasonably  likely to realize a fair price for  such property.  The Master
Servicer or any  related Sub-servicer or  the Special Servicer may  retain an
independent contractor to  operate and manage any REO  Property; however, the
retention of an  independent contractor will not relieve  the Master Servicer
or any related  Sub-servicer or the Special Servicer of  its obligations with
respect to such REO Property.

    In  general, the  Master  Servicer or  any  related Sub-servicer  or  the
Special Servicer or an independent contractor employed by the Master Servicer
or any related  Sub-servicer or the  Special Servicer at  the expense of  the
Trust Fund  will be obligated  to operate  and manage any  Mortgaged Property
acquired as  REO Property in a manner that  would, to the extent commercially
feasible,  maximize  the  Trust  Fund's  net  after-tax  proceeds  from  such
property.   After the  Master Servicer  or  any related  Sub-servicer or  the
Special Servicer reviews the operation of such property and consults with the
Trustee to determine  the Trust Fund's federal income  tax reporting position
with respect to the income it is anticipated that the Trust Fund would derive
from such  property, the Master  Servicer or any related  Sub-servicer or the
Special Servicer could determine (particularly in the case of an REO Property
that is a  hospitality or residential health care facility) that it would not
be commercially feasible to manage and operate such property in a manner that
would  avoid  the  imposition  of  a tax  on  "net  income  from  foreclosure
property," within the meaning of Section 857(b)(4)(B) of the Code or a tax on
"prohibited transactions"  under Section  860F of the  Code (either  such tax
referred to herein as  an "REO Tax").   To the extent  that income the  Trust
Fund  receives from an  REO Property is subject  to a tax  on (i) "net income
from foreclosure property" such income would be subject to federal income tax
at  the  highest  marginal  corporate   tax  rate  (currently  35%)  or  (ii)
"prohibited transactions," such income would be subject to federal income tax
at a 100% rate.   The determination as to whether income from an REO Property
would  be subject  to  an REO  Tax  will  depend on  the  specific facts  and
circumstances relating to the management  and operation of each REO Property.
Generally,  income from  an REO  Property that  is directly  operated by  the
Master Servicer or any related Sub-servicer or the  Special Servicer would be
apportioned  and  classified  as  "service" or  "non-service"  income.    The
"service" portion  of such  income could  be  subject to  federal income  tax
either at  the highest marginal  corporate tax rate  or at  the 100% rate  on
"prohibited transactions," and the "non-service" portion of such income could
be subject  to federal income tax at the  highest marginal corporate tax rate
or, although it appears unlikely, at the 100% rate  applicable to "prohibited
transactions."  Any  REO Tax imposed on the  Trust Fund's income from  an REO
Property   would  reduce   the   amount   available   for   distribution   to
Certificateholders.   Certificateholders  are advised  to  consult their  tax
advisors regarding  the possible imposition  of REO Taxes in  connection with
the operation of commercial REO  Properties by REMICs.  See "Certain  Federal
Income Tax Consequences" herein and "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences-
REMICs" in the Prospectus.

Rights of Redemption

    The  purposes of  a  foreclosure action  are to  enable the  mortgagee to
realize upon  its security and to bar the mortgagor, and all persons who have
an interest  in the  property  which is  subordinate  to the  mortgage  being
foreclosed,  from exercise of their "equity of  redemption."  The doctrine of
equity of redemption provides that, until  the property covered by a mortgage
has  been  sold in  accordance  with  a  properly conducted  foreclosure  and
foreclosure sale, those  having an interest  which is subordinate to  that of
the foreclosing  mortgagee have an  equity of redemption  and may redeem  the
property  by paying  the entire  debt  with interest.  In  addition, in  some
states, when  a foreclosure  action has been  commenced, the  redeeming party
must pay certain costs  of such action. Those having an  equity of redemption
must generally  be made parties  and joined in the  foreclosure proceeding in
order for their equity of redemption to be cut off and terminated. 

    The  equity of  redemption is  a common-law  (non-statutory) right  which
exists  prior to  completion  of  the foreclosure,  is  not  waivable by  the
mortgagor,  must  be  exercised  prior  to foreclosure  sale  and  should  be
distinguished from  the post-sale  statutory rights  of  redemption. In  some
states, after sale pursuant to a deed of trust  or foreclosure of a mortgage,
the mortgagor and foreclosed junior lienors  are given a statutory period  in
which  to redeem  the property  from the  foreclosure sale.  In some  states,
statutory  redemption may  occur only  upon payment  of the  foreclosure sale
price. In other states, redemption may be authorized if  the former mortgagor
pays only  a portion  of the  sums due. The  effect of  a statutory  right of
redemption is to  diminish the ability of  the lender to sell  the foreclosed
property. The exercise of a right of redemption would defeat the title of any
purchaser  from  a   foreclosure  sale  or  sale  under  a   deed  of  trust.
Consequently,  the practical effect  of the redemption right  is to force the
lender to maintain the  property and pay the expenses of  ownership until the
redemption period has expired. In some states, a post-sale statutory right of
redemption may  exist following a  judicial foreclosure, but not  following a
trustee's sale under a deed of trust. 

    Under the  REMIC  Provisions currently  in effect,  property acquired  by
foreclosure generally must not be held beyond the close of the third calendar
year  following the  year of acquisition.   Unless otherwise  provided in the
related Prospectus Supplement,  with respect to a series  of Certificates for
which an  election is made to qualify  the Trust Fund or a  part thereof as a
REMIC,  the Agreement will  permit foreclosed property to  be held beyond the
close  of the third  calendar year following  the year of  acquisition if the
Internal Revenue  Service grants an  extension of time  within which to  sell
such property or  independent counsel renders an  opinion to the  effect that
holding such  property for  such additional period  is permissible  under the
REMIC Provisions. 

Cooperative Loans

    The cooperative shares  owned by  the tenant-stockholder  and pledged  to
the lender  are, in almost all cases, subject  to restrictions on transfer as
set forth in  the Cooperative's Certificate of Incorporation  and By-laws, as
well as the proprietary lease or occupancy agreement, and may be cancelled by
the  cooperative for failure by  the tenant-stockholder to  pay rent or other
obligations  or charges owed by such tenant-stockholder, including mechanics'
liens against  the cooperative  apartment building  incurred by  such tenant-
stockholder.  The proprietary lease  or occupancy agreement generally  permit
the Cooperative to terminate such lease or  agreement in the event an obligor
fails to make  payments or defaults in the  performance of covenants required
thereunder.    Typically,  the  lender  and  the  Cooperative  enter  into  a
recognition agreement which  establishes the rights  and obligations of  both
parties  in the  event  of  a default  by  the  tenant-stockholder under  the
proprietary  lease or occupancy  agreement will usually  constitute a default
under the security agreement between the lender and the tenant-stockholder.

    The recognition agreement generally provides that,  in the event that the
tenant-stockholder has  defaulted under  the proprietary  lease or  occupancy
agreement, the Cooperative  will take no  action to  terminate such lease  or
agreement until the lender has been provided with an opportunity to  cure the
default.    The  recognition   agreement  typically  provides  that   if  the
proprietary lease or occupancy agreement is terminated, the  Cooperative will
recognize the lender's lien against proceeds from the sale of the Cooperative
apartment, subject,  however, to  the Cooperative's right  to sums  due under
such proprietary lease  or occupancy agreement.  The total amount owed to the
Cooperative  by the  tenant-stockholder, which  the  lender generally  cannot
restrict and does not monitor, could reduce the value of the collateral below
the outstanding  principal balance  of the Cooperative  Loan and  accrued and
unpaid interest thereon.

    Recognition agreements  also provide that in  the event of  a foreclosure
on a Cooperative Loan, the  lender must obtain the approval or consent of the
Cooperative  as required  by the  proprietary lease  before  transferring the
Cooperative shares or assigning the proprietary lease.  Generally, the lender
is  not  limited  in  any  rights  it  may  have  to  dispossess  the tenant-
stockholders.

    In some states, foreclosure on the  Cooperative shares is accomplished by
a  sale in accordance  with the provisions  of Article 9  of the  UCC and the
security agreement relating to those shares.   Article 9 of the UCC  requires
that a sale  be conducted in a  "commercially reasonable" manner.   Whether a
foreclosure sale  has been  conducted in  a "commercially reasonable"  manner
will  depend  on  the  facts  in  each  case.    In  determining   commercial
reasonableness, a  court will  look to the  notice given  the debtor  and the
method, manner, time, place and terms of  the foreclosure.  Generally, a sale
conducted according to the usual practice of banks selling similar collateral
will be considered reasonably conducted.

    Article 9 of  the UCC  provides that  the proceeds  of the  sale will  be
applied first to pay  the costs and expenses of the sale  and then to satisfy
the indebtedness secured by the  lender's security interest.  The recognition
agreement,  however,   generally  provides   that  the   lender's  right   to
reimbursement is subject to the right of the Cooperatives to receive sums due
under the proprietary lease  or occupancy agreement.   If there are  proceeds
remaining, the lender must account to the tenant-stockholder for the surplus.
Conversely,  if a  portion of  the indebtedness  remains unpaid,  the tenant-
stockholder is generally responsible for the deficiency.

    In  the case  of foreclosure  on a  building which  was converted  from a
rental building  to a building  owned by a  Cooperative under a  non-eviction
plan, some  states require that  a purchaser at  a foreclosure sale  take the
property subject to  rent control and rent stabilization laws  which apply to
certain tenants who elected to remain in the building was so converted.

JUNIOR MORTGAGES

    Some of the Mortgage  Loans may be secured  by junior mortgages or  deeds
of trust, which  are subordinate to first mortgages or deeds of trust held by
other lenders. The rights of the Trust Fund as the holder of a junior deed of
trust or a junior mortgage are subordinate in lien and in payment to those of
the holder  of the  senior mortgage  or deed  of trust,  including the  prior
rights of  the senior  mortgagee or beneficiary  to receive and  apply hazard
insurance and  condemnation proceeds and,  upon default of the  mortgagor, to
cause a foreclosure  on the  property.   Upon completion  of the  foreclosure
proceedings by the holder of the senior  mortgage or the sale pursuant to the
deed of trust, the  junior mortgagee's or  junior beneficiary's lien will  be
extinguished unless the junior lienholder satisfies the defaulted senior loan
or asserts its subordinate interest in a property in foreclosure proceedings.
See "-Foreclosure" herein.

    Furthermore, because the  terms of the  junior mortgage or deed  of trust
are  subordinate to the terms of the first  mortgage or deed of trust, in the
event of a conflict between the terms of  the first mortgage or deed of trust
and the junior mortgage or deed of trust, the terms of the  first mortgage or
deed of  trust will generally  govern.  Upon  a failure  of the mortgagor  or
trustor  to  perform  any  of   its  obligations,  the  senior  mortgagee  or
beneficiary, subject to  the terms of the  senior mortgage or deed  of trust,
may have the right to perform the  obligation itself.  Generally, all sums so
expended  by the  mortgagee or  beneficiary become  part of  the indebtedness
secured by the mortgage  or deed of trust.   To the extent a  first mortgagee
expends such sums, such sums will  generally have priority over all sums  due
under the junior mortgage.

ANTI-DEFICIENCY LEGISLATION AND OTHER LIMITATIONS ON LENDERS

    Statutes in some states limit the right of a  beneficiary under a deed of
trust or  a  mortgagee under  a mortgage  to obtain  a  deficiency   judgment
against the mortgagor following foreclosure or sale under a deed of trust.  A
deficiency judgment would be a personal judgment against the former mortgagor
equal to the  difference between the net amount realized upon the public sale
of the real property and the amount  due to the lender.  Some states  require
the lender to exhaust the  security afforded under a mortgage by  foreclosure
in  an attempt  to satisfy the  full debt  before bringing a  personal action
against the mortgagor.  In certain other states, the lender has the option of
bringing a personal  action against the mortgagor  on the debt  without first
exhausting  such security;  however, in  some  of these  states, the  lender,
following judgment  on such personal action, may be  deemed to have elected a
remedy and  may be precluded  from exercising  remedies with  respect to  the
security.   In  some cases, a  lender will  be precluded from  exercising any
additional  rights under  the note  or  mortgage if  it has  taken  any prior
enforcement  action.   Consequently,  the  practical effect  of  the election
requirement, in those  states permitting such election, is  that lenders will
usually proceed  against the security  first rather than bringing  a personal
action against the mortgagor.   Finally, other statutory provisions limit any
deficiency judgment against the former mortgagor following a judicial sale to
the excess of the outstanding debt over the fair market value of the property
at  the time of the public sale.   The purpose of these statutes is generally
to prevent a  lender from obtaining a  large deficiency judgment against  the
former mortgagor as a result of low or no bids at the judicial sale.

    In  addition  to  laws  limiting  or  prohibiting  deficiency  judgments,
numerous other federal and state  statutory provisions, including the federal
bankruptcy laws  and state  laws affording relief  to debtors,  may interfere
with or  affect the ability  of the secured  mortgage lender to  realize upon
collateral or enforce  a deficiency judgment.   For example, with  respect to
federal  bankruptcy law,  a court  with federal  bankruptcy  jurisdiction may
permit a debtor  through his or her  Chapter 11 or Chapter  13 rehabilitative
plan to cure a  monetary default in respect of a mortgage  loan on a debtor's
residence  by   paying  arrearages  within  a  reasonable   time  period  and
reinstating  the original  mortgage  loan payment  schedule  even though  the
lender accelerated  the mortgage loan  and final judgment of  foreclosure had
been  entered  in state  court (provided  no  sale of  the residence  had yet
occurred) prior  to the filing  of the debtor's  petition.  Some  courts with
federal  bankruptcy jurisdiction have approved plans, based on the particular
facts of the reorganization case, that effected the curing of a mortgage loan
default by paying arrearages over a number of years.

    Courts with  federal bankruptcy jurisdiction have also indicated that the
terms of  a mortgage loan secured by property  of the debtor may be modified.
These courts have  allowed modifications that include reducing  the amount of
each monthly payment,  changing the rate of interest,  altering the repayment
schedule, forgiving all  or a portion of  the debt and reducing  the lender's
security interest to  the value of the  residence, thus leaving the  lender a
general  unsecured creditor  for  the  difference between  the  value of  the
residence  and the outstanding balance of the  loan.  Generally, however, the
terms of a mortgage loan secured only  by a mortgage on real property that is
the debtor's  principal  residence may  not be  modified pursuant  to a  plan
confirmed  pursuant  to Chapter  11  or Chapter  13  except  with respect  to
mortgage  payment arrearages,  which may  be cured  within a  reasonable time
period.

    Certain  tax liens  arising under the  Internal Revenue Code  of 1986, as
amended, may  in certain circumstances  provide priority over  the lien  of a
mortgage or deed of trust.  In addition, substantive requirements are imposed
upon mortgage lenders in connection with the origination and the servicing of
mortgage loans by  numerous federal and some state  consumer protection laws.
These  laws include the federal  Truth-in-Lending Act, Real Estate Settlement
Procedures Act, Equal  Credit Opportunity Act, Fair Credit  Billing Act, Fair
Credit  Reporting  Act and  related  statutes.    These federal  laws  impose
specific statutory liabilities upon lenders who originate mortgage loans  and
who fail  to comply  with the  provisions of  the law.   In  some cases  this
liability may affect assignees of the mortgage loans.

    Generally,  Article  9 of  the  UCC  governs  foreclosure on  Cooperative
shares and the related proprietary lease or occupancy agreement.  Some courts
have interpreted  section 9-504  of the  UCC to  prohibit a deficiency  award
unless the  creditor establishes that the  sale of the collateral  (which, in
the case of  a Cooperative Loan, would be  the shares of the  Cooperative and
the  related proprietary  lease or  occupancy agreement)  was conducted  in a
commercially reasonable manner.

ENVIRONMENTAL LEGISLATION

    Certain states impose  a statutory lien for associated costs  on property
that is the subject of a cleanup action by the state on account of  hazardous
wastes or hazardous substances released or disposed of on the property.  Such
a lien will generally have priority over all subsequent liens on the property
and, in certain of these states, will have priority over prior recorded liens
including the lien of a  mortgage.  In addition, under federal  environmental
legislation and under state  law in a number of states,  a secured party that
takes  a deed in  lieu of foreclosure  or acquires a  mortgaged property at a
foreclosure  sale or  becomes involved  in the  operation or management  of a
property  so as to be deemed an "owner"  or "operator" of the property may be
liable for the costs of cleaning up a contaminated site.  Although such costs
could be substantial, it is unclear whether they would be imposed on a lender
(such as  a Trust Fund) secured by  residential real property.   In the event
that title to a Mortgaged Property  securing a Mortgage Loan in a Trust  Fund
was acquired by the Trust Fund and cleanup  costs were incurred in respect of
the Mortgaged  Property, the  holders of the  related series  of Certificates
might realize  a loss  if such costs  were required to  be paid by  the Trust
Fund.

DUE-ON-SALE CLAUSES

    Unless   the  related  Prospectus  Supplement  indicates  otherwise,  the
Mortgage  Loans will  contain due-on-sale  clauses.  These clauses  generally
provide  that the  lender may  accelerate  the maturity  of the  loan  if the
mortgagor sells,  transfers or conveys  the related Mortgaged Property.   The
enforceability of due-on-sale clauses has  been the subject of legislation or
litigation in  many states and,  in some  cases, the enforceability  of these
clauses  was limited or  denied. However, with  respect to  certain loans the
Garn-St Germain  Depository  Institutions   Act  of  1982   preempts  state
constitutional,  statutory and  case law  that  prohibits the  enforcement of
due-on-sale  clauses  and   permits  lenders  to  enforce  these  clauses  in
accordance with their terms, subject  to certain limited exceptions.  Due-on-
sale clauses  contained in mortgage  loans originated by federal  savings and
loan associations of federal savings  banks are fully enforceable pursuant to
regulations of the  United States Federal Home Loan  Bank Board, as succeeded
by the  Office of Thrift Supervision, which preempt state law restrictions on
the  enforcement  of  such  clauses.   Similarly,  "due-on-sale"  clauses  in
mortgage loans made by national banks and federal credit unions are now fully
enforceable  pursuant to  preemptive regulations  of  the Comptroller  of the
Currency and the National Credit Union Administration, respectively.

    The  Garn-St. Germain  Act also  sets  forth nine  specific instances  in
which a  mortgage lender covered  by the  act (including federal  savings and
loan associations and federal savings banks) may not exercise a "due-on-sale"
clause, notwithstanding  the fact that  a transfer of  the property  may have
occurred.    These  include  intra-family  transfers,  certain  transfers  by
operation of  law, leases  of fewer than  three years and  the creation  of a
junior  encumbrance.  Regulations  promulgated under the  Garn-St Germain Act
also prohibit the imposition of a prepayment penalty upon the acceleration of
a  loan  pursuant  to a  due-on-sale  clause.   The  inability  to  enforce a
"due-on-sale" clause may  result in a  mortgage that bears  an interest  rate
below the current market  rate being assumed by a new  home buyer rather than
being  paid off, which may affect the average  life of the Mortgage Loans and
the number of Mortgage Loans which may extend to maturity. 

PREPAYMENT CHARGES

    Under  certain state laws, prepayment charges may  not be imposed after a
certain period of time following the origination of mortgage loans secured by
liens  encumbering owner-occupied residential  properties, if such  loans are
paid prior  to maturity.   Since  many of  the Mortgaged  Properties will  be
owner-occupied, it is anticipated that  prepayment charges may not be imposed
with respect to many of the Mortgage Loans.  The absence of  such a restraint
on prepayment, particularly with respect  to fixed rate Mortgage Loans having
higher Mortgage  Rates, may increase  the likelihood of refinancing  or other
early retirement of such loans.

SUBORDINATE FINANCING

    Where a  mortgagor encumbers mortgaged property  with one or  more junior
liens,  the  senior  lender  is  subjected to  additional  risk.  First,  the
mortgagor  may have  difficulty  servicing and  repaying  multiple loans.  In
addition, if  the junior  loan permits recourse  to the mortgagor  (as junior
loans often do) and  the senior loan does not, a mortgagor may be more likely
to repay sums due on  the junior loan than those on the  senior loan. Second,
acts of  the senior  lender that prejudice  the junior  lender or  impair the
junior lender's security may create a superior  equity in favor of the junior
lender. For  example, if  the mortgagor  and the  senior lender  agree to  an
increase in  the principal  amount of  or the  interest rate  payable on  the
senior  loan,  the senior  lender may  lose  its priority  to the  extent any
existing junior lender  is harmed or the mortgagor  is additionally burdened.
Third, if the mortgagor defaults on the senior loan and/or any junior loan or
loans, the existence of junior loans and  actions taken by junior lenders can
impair the security  available to the senior lender and can interfere with or
delay the taking of action by the senior lender. Moreover, the  bankruptcy of
a junior lender may operate to stay foreclosure or similar proceedings by the
senior lender.

APPLICABILITY OF USURY LAWS

    Title V  of the Depository Institutions Deregulation and Monetary Control
Act  of 1980, enacted  in March 1980 ("Title  V"), provides  that state usury
limitations shall  not apply to  certain types of residential  first mortgage
loans originated by  certain lenders after March 31, 1980.  A similar federal
statute was in  effect with respect to  mortgage loans made during  the first
three  months of  1980.  The  Office of  Thrift Supervision is  authorized to
issue   rules  and  regulations  and  to  publish  interpretations  governing
implementation of  Title V.   The statute  authorized any  state to  reimpose
interest  rate   limits  by  adopting,   before  April 1,  1983,  a   law  or
constitutional  provision that expressly  rejects application of  the federal
law. In  addition,  even where  Title V  is  not so  rejected,  any state  is
authorized by the  law to adopt a provision limiting discount points or other
charges  on mortgage  loans covered  by  Title V. Certain  states have  taken
action to reimpose  interest rate limits  and/or to limit discount  points or
other charges. 

    The  Depositor has  been advised  by  counsel that  a court  interpreting
Title V would hold that residential first  mortgage loans that are originated
on or after January 1, 1980 are subject to federal  preemption. Therefore, in
a state that  has not  taken the  requisite action to  reject application  of
Title V  or to  adopt a provision  limiting discount points  or other charges
prior  to origination of such mortgage loans,  any such limitation under such
state's usury law would not apply to such mortgage loans. 

    In  any state in which application of Title V has been expressly rejected
or a  provision limiting  discount points  or  other charges  is adopted,  no
mortgage loan originated after the date of such state action will be eligible
for inclusion in a Trust Fund unless (i) such mortgage loan provides for such
interest rate, discount points and charges as  are permitted in such state or
(ii) such mortgage loan provides that the terms thereof shall be construed in
accordance  with the laws  of another state  under which such  interest rate,
discount points and charges would not be usurious and the mortgagor's counsel
has  rendered an  opinion that such  choice of  law provision would  be given
effect.

    Statutes differ in their provisions as to the consequences of a  usurious
loan.  One group of statutes requires the lender  to forfeit the interest due
above  the  applicable limit  or  impose  a specified  penalty.   Under  this
statutory scheme, the  mortgagor may cancel the recorded mortgage  or deed of
trust  upon  paying  its  debt  with  lawful interest,  and  the  lender  may
foreclose,  but only for the  debt plus lawful  interest.  A  second group of
statutes is more severe.   A violation of this type  of usury law results  in
the invalidation  of  the transaction,  thereby permitting  the mortgagor  to
cancel the  recorded  mortgage  or  deed  of trust  without  any  payment  or
prohibiting the lender from foreclosing.

ALTERNATIVE MORTGAGE INSTRUMENTS

    Alternative  mortgage  instruments, including  adjustable  rate  mortgage
loans  and  early  ownership  mortgage  loans,  originated  by  non-federally
chartered  lenders   have  historically   been  subject   to  a   variety  of
restrictions.  Such  restrictions differed from state to  state, resulting in
difficulties  in  determining  whether  a  particular   alternative  mortgage
instrument originated  by a  state-chartered lender  was  in compliance  with
applicable law.  These difficulties were alleviated substantially as a result
of the enactment  of Title VIII  of the Garn-St  Germain Act ("Title  VIII").
Title  VIII provides  that, notwithstanding  any state  law to  the contrary,
state-chartered  banks  may  originate  alternative mortgage  instruments  in
accordance with regulations  promulgated by the  Comptroller of the  Currency
with respect to  origination of alternative mortgage  instruments by national
banks;  state-chartered  credit  unions may  originate  alternative  mortgage
instruments in accordance with regulations promulgated by the National Credit
Union  Administration with  respect to  origination  of alternative  mortgage
instruments by federal  credit unions; and all  other non-federally chartered
housing creditors, including  state-chartered savings and loan  associations,
state-chartered  savings banks and mutual savings  banks and mortgage banking
companies,  may originate alternative mortgage instruments in accordance with
the regulations promulgated by the  Federal Home Loan Bank Board, predecessor
to  the  Office  of  Thrift  Supervision,  with  respect  to  origination  of
alternative  mortgage instruments by  federal savings and  loan associations.
Title VIII provides that any state may reject applicability of the provisions
of Title VIII by adopting, prior to October 15, 1985, a law or constitutional
provision expressly rejecting the applicability of such  provisions.  Certain
states have taken such action.

SOLDIERS' AND SAILORS' CIVIL RELIEF ACT OF 1940

    Under  the terms of the Soldiers' and  Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940,
as amended (the "Relief Act"), a mortgagor who  enters military service after
the origination of such mortgagor's  Mortgage Loan (including a mortgagor who
was in reserve status and is  called to active duty after origination of  the
Mortgage  Loan), may  not be  charged interest  (including fees  and charges)
above an annual rate of 6% during the period of such mortgagor's active  duty
status, unless a court  orders otherwise upon application of the  lender. The
Relief Act  applies to  mortgagors who  are members  of the  Army, Navy,  Air
Force, Marines,  National Guard,  Reserves, Coast Guard  and officers  of the
U.S. Public  Health Service assigned to  duty with the  military. Because the
Relief  Act  applies to  mortgagors  who  enter  military service  (including
reservists who  are called to active  duty) after origination of  the related
Mortgage Loan, no information can be provided as to  the number of loans that
may  be affected  by the  Relief  Act. Application  of the  Relief  Act would
adversely affect,  for an indeterminate  period of time,  the ability of  any
servicer to  collect full  amounts of  interest on  certain  of the  Mortgage
Loans. Any shortfalls in interest  collections resulting from the application
of the Relief Act would result in a reduction of the amounts distributable to
the holders of the related series  of Certificates, and would not be  covered
by  advances  or,  unless  otherwise  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus
Supplement,  any form  of Credit  Support  provided in  connection with  such
Certificates.  In addition,  the Relief  Act imposes  limitations that  would
impair the ability of the servicer to foreclose on an affected  Mortgage Loan
during  the mortgagor's  period of  active  duty status,  and, under  certain
circumstances, during an additional  three month period thereafter. Thus,  in
the event that such a  Mortgage Loan goes into  default, there may be  delays
and losses occasioned thereby. 

FORFEITURES IN DRUG AND RICO PROCEEDINGS

    Federal  law  provides  that  property  owned  by  persons  convicted  of
drug-related crimes or of criminal violations of the Racketeer Influenced and
Corrupt Organizations ("RICO") statute can be seized by the government if the
property was used in, or purchased  with the proceeds of, such crimes.  Under
procedures  contained in  the Comprehensive  Crime Control  Act of  1984 (the
"Crime  Control Act"),  the government  may  seize the  property even  before
conviction.  The government must publish notice  of the forfeiture proceeding
and may give notice to all parties "known to have an alleged interest in  the
property," including the holders of mortgage loans. 

    A  lender may  avoid forfeiture  of its  interest in  the property  if it
establishes  that:  (i) its   mortgage  was  executed  and   recorded  before
commission  of the  crime upon  which the  forfeiture  is based,  or (ii) the
lender was, at  the time  of execution of  the mortgage, "reasonably  without
cause  to  believe" that  the property  was  used in,  or purchased  with the
proceeds of, illegal drug or RICO activities. 

                   CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

    The following  summary  of the  anticipated material  federal income  tax
consequences   of  the  purchase,   ownership  and  disposition   of  Offered
Certificates is based on the advice of Latham & Watkins or Brown & Wood  LLP,
counsel to  the  Depositor.   This  summary is  based  on laws,  regulations,
including the REMIC regulations  promulgated by the Treasury  Department (the
"REMIC Regulations"), rulings and decisions now in effect or (with respect to
regulations)  proposed,   all  of   which  are  subject   to  change   either
prospectively or  retroactively.  This  summary does not address  the federal
income tax  consequences of an  investment in Certificates applicable  to all
categories  of investors,  some of  which (for  example, banks  and insurance
companies) may  be subject  to special rules.   Prospective  investors should
consult their tax advisors regarding the  federal, state, local and any other
tax  consequences to  them  of  the purchase,  ownership  and disposition  of
Certificates.

GENERAL

    The  federal  income tax  consequences  to  Certificateholders will  vary
depending on whether an election is made  to treat the Trust Fund relating to
a  particular  Series  of  Certificates as  a  REMIC  under  the  Code.   The
Prospectus Supplement for each Series  of Certificates will specify whether a
REMIC election will be made.

GRANTOR TRUST FUNDS

    If a  REMIC election is  not made, Latham &  Watkins or Brown &  Wood LLP
will deliver  its opinion that  the Trust Fund will  not be classified  as an
association taxable as  a corporation and that  each such Trust Fund  will be
classified  as a grantor  trust under subpart  E, Part  I of subchapter  J of
Chapter 1 of  Subtitle A of the Code.   In this case,  owners of Certificates
will be treated for federal income tax purposes as owners of a portion of the
Trust Fund's assets as described below.

A.  SINGLE CLASS OF GRANTOR TRUST CERTIFICATES

    Characterization.   The  Trust  Fund may  be created  with  one class  of
Grantor   Trust   Certificates.     In   this   case,   each  Grantor   Trust
Certificateholder will  be treated  as  the owner  of  a pro  rata  undivided
interest in the interest and principal portions of the Trust Fund represented
by the Grantor Trust Certificates and  will be considered the equitable owner
of a pro rata undivided interest in each of the Mortgage Assets in the  Pool.
Any amounts received by a Grantor Trust Certificateholder in lieu  of amounts
due with respect to any Mortgage Asset because of a default or delinquency in
payment will be  treated for federal income  tax purposes as having  the same
character as the payments they replace.

    Each Grantor  Trust Certificateholder will be  required to report  on its
federal   income  tax   return  in   accordance  with   such  Grantor   Trust
Certificateholder's method  of accounting  its pro rata  share of  the entire
income from the Mortgage Loans in the Trust Fund represented by Grantor Trust
Certificates,  including interest, original  issue discount ("OID"),  if any,
prepayment fees, assumption fees, any  gain recognized upon an assumption and
late payment charges  received by the  Master Servicer.  Under  Code Sections
162  or 212 each Grantor  Trust Certificateholder will  be entitled to deduct
its pro rata share of servicing  fees, prepayment fees, assumption fees,  any
loss recognized upon  an assumption and late payment charges  retained by the
Master Servicer, provided  that such amounts are  reasonable compensation for
services rendered to  the Trust Fund.  Grantor  Trust Certificateholders that
are individuals, estates or trusts will be  entitled to deduct their share of
expenses  as itemized  deductions only to  the extent such  expenses plus all
other Code  Section 212  expenses exceed  two percent  of its adjusted  gross
income.  In  addition, the amount of itemized  deductions otherwise allowable
for  the taxable year  for an individual whose  adjusted gross income exceeds
the applicable amount under Code Section 68(b) (which amount will be adjusted
for inflation)  will be  reduced by the  lesser of  (i) 3%  of the excess  of
adjusted gross income over the applicable  amount and (ii) 80% of the  amount
of  itemized  deductions otherwise  allowable  for  such  taxable year.    In
general,  a  Grantor  Trust  Certificateholder  using  the  cash  method   of
accounting must take into account its pro rata share of income and deductions
as  and when collected by or paid to  the Master Servicer or, with respect to
original  issue  discount  or  certain  other  income  items  for  which  the
Certificateholder has made an  election, as such amounts  are accrued by  the
Trust Fund on  a constant interest basis,  and will be entitled to  claim its
pro rata share of deductions (subject to the foregoing limitations) when such
amounts are  paid or  such Certificateholder would  otherwise be  entitled to
claim such deductions  had it held the  Mortgage Assets directly.   A Grantor
Trust Certificateholder using an accrual  method of accounting must take into
account its pro rata share of income as payment becomes due or is paid to the
Master Servicer,  whichever is earlier, and may deduct  its pro rata share of
expense items  (subject to the  foregoing limitations) when such  amounts are
paid  or such  Certificateholder otherwise  would be  entitled to  claim such
deductions had  it held the Mortgage Assets directly.   If the servicing fees
paid  to  the Master  Servicer  are  deemed  to exceed  reasonable  servicing
compensation, the amount  of such excess could be considered  as an ownership
interest retained by  the Master Servicer (or  any person to whom  the Master
Servicer  assigned for  value all or  a portion  of the servicing  fees) in a
portion of the interest payments on the Mortgage Assets.  The Mortgage Assets
would then  be subject to the "coupon stripping"  rules of the Code discussed
below.

    Unless otherwise  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement  or
otherwise provided below, as  to each Series  of Certificates counsel to  the
Depositor will have advised the Depositor that:

        (i) a  Grantor Trust Certificate  owned by  a "domestic building  and
    loan  association"   within  the  meaning  of  Code  Section  7701(a)(19)
    representing  principal and interest payments  on Mortgage Assets will be
    considered to represent  "loans .  .   .  secured by  an interest in real
    property which  is .  .   .  residential property"  within the meaning of
    Code Section  7701(a)(19)(C)(v), to the  extent that the  Mortgage Assets
    represented by that Grantor Trust Certificate are of  a type described in
    such Code section;

        (ii) a  Grantor Trust Certificate owned  by a real estate  investment
    trust representing an  interest in Mortgage Assets will be  considered to
    represent  "real  estate  assets"  within  the meaning  of  Code  Section
    856(c)(4)(A),  and  interest  income  on  the  Mortgage  Assets  will  be
    considered  "interest   on  obligations  secured  by  mortgages  on  real
    property" within the meaning of Code  Section 856(c)(3)(B), to the extent
    that the Mortgage  Assets represented by  that Grantor Trust  Certificate
    are of a type described in such Code section; and

        (iii) a  Grantor Trust Certificate  owned by  a REMIC will  represent
    "obligation(s) ...   which  (are) principally secured  by an interest  in
    real property" within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(3).

    The  Small Business Job Protection Act of  1996, as part of the repeal of
the bad debt reserve method for thrift institutions, repealed the application
of Code Section 593(d) to any taxable year beginning after December 31, 1995.

    Stripped  Bonds  and  Coupons.    Certain  Trust  Funds  may  consist  of
Government  Securities that constitute "stripped bonds" or "stripped coupons"
as those terms  are defined in section  1286 of the  Code, and, as a  result,
such  assets would be  subject to the  stripped bond provisions  of the Code.
Under these rules, such Government  Securities are treated as having original
issue discount based on the purchase price and the stated redemption price at
maturity of each  Security.  As such, Grantor  Trust Certificateholders would
be required to  include in income their pro rata share  of the original issue
discount on  each  Government Security  recognized in  any given  year on  an
economic accrual basis even if the Grantor Trust Certificateholder is  a cash
method  taxpayer.   Accordingly,  the sum  of  the income  includible  to the
Grantor  Trust  Certificateholder in  any  taxable  year may  exceed  amounts
actually received during such year. 

    Buydown Loans.   The assets constituting certain Trust Funds  may include
Buydown Loans.  The characterization of any investment in Buydown Loans  will
depend upon the  precise terms of the  related buydown agreement, but  to the
extent that such Buydown Loans are secured in part by a bank account or other
personal  property, they  may  not be  treated in  their  entirety as  assets
described in  the foregoing  sections of  the Code.   There  are no  directly
applicable precedents with respect to the federal income tax treatment or the
characterization of investments in Buydown Loans.  Accordingly, Grantor Trust
Certificateholders should consult their own  tax advisors with respect to the
characterization of investments in Grantor Trust Certificates representing an
interest in a Trust Fund that includes Buydown Loans.

    Premium.   The price  paid for  a Grantor Trust  Certificate by  a holder
will be  allocated to such holder's undivided interest in each Mortgage Asset
based  on each  Mortgage Asset's  relative fair  market value,  so  that such
holder's undivided  interest in  each Mortgage  Asset will  have its  own tax
basis.   A  Grantor  Trust  Certificateholder that  acquires  an interest  in
Mortgage Assets  at a  premium may  elect to  amortize such  premium under  a
constant interest  method, provided that  the underlying mortgage  loans with
respect to  such Mortgage  Assets were originated  after September  27, 1985.
Premium allocable  to mortgage  loans originated on  or before  September 27,
1985 should be allocated among the principal  payments on such mortgage loans
and  allowed  as  an  ordinary  deduction as  principal  payments  are  made.
Amortizable bond premium will  be treated as an offset to  interest income on
such Grantor Trust Certificate.  The basis for such Grantor Trust Certificate
will be  reduced to the extent that amortizable  premium is applied to offset
interest  payments.    It  is  not  clear  whether  a  reasonable  prepayment
assumption  should be  used in  computing amortization  of premium  allowable
under Code  Section 171.  A Certificateholder that  makes this election for a
Certificate that  is acquired  at a premium  will be deemed  to have  made an
election to amortize bond premium with respect to all debt instruments having
amortizable bond premium that such Certificateholder acquires during the year
of the election or thereafter.

    If  a  premium  is  not  subject   to  amortization  using  a  reasonable
prepayment assumption, the holder of  a Grantor Trust Certificate acquired at
a premium  should  recognize a  loss if  a Mortgage  Loan  (or an  underlying
mortgage loan with respect to a Mortgage Asset) prepays in full, equal to the
difference  between the  portion  of  the prepaid  principal  amount of  such
Mortgage  Loan  (or  underlying  mortgage  loan) that  is  allocable  to  the
Certificate and the portion of the adjusted basis of the Certificate  that is
allocable  to  such  Mortgage  Loan  (or underlying  mortgage  loan).    If a
reasonable prepayment assumption is used to amortize such premium, it appears
that  such a  loss would be  available, if  at all, only  if prepayments have
occurred at a rate faster than the reasonable assumed prepayment rate.  It is
not  clear  whether  any  other  adjustments would  be  required  to  reflect
differences  between  an assumed  prepayment  rate  and  the actual  rate  of
prepayments.

        On  December 30,  1997,  the  Internal Revenue  Service  (the  "IRS")
issued final regulations (the "Amortizable Bond Premium Regulations") dealing
with amortizable  bond  premium.    These regulations,  which  generally  are
effective for  bonds issued or acquired  on or after  March 2, 1998  (or, for
holders making an election  for the taxable year that includes  March 2, 1998
or any subsequent  taxable year, shall  apply to bonds  held on or  after the
first day of the taxable year of the election).  The Amortizable Bond Premium
Regulations specifically do  not apply to prepayable debt  instruments or any
pool of debt instruments the yield  on which may be affected by  prepayments,
such as the Trust Fund, which are subject  to Section 1272(a)(6) of the Code.
Absent further  guidance from the IRS  and unless otherwise specified  in the
related Prospectus Supplement, the Trustee will account for  amortizable bond
premium in the manner described above.  Prospective purchasers should consult
their tax  advisors regarding  amortizable bond  premium and the  Amortizable
Bond Premium Regulations.

    Original Issue Discount.   The IRS has stated in  published rulings that,
in circumstances similar to those described herein,  the special rules of the
Code  relating to  original issue  discount ("OID") (currently  Code Sections
1271 through 1273 and  1275) and Treasury  regulations issued on January  27,
1994, under  such Sections (the "OID  Regulations"), will be  applicable to a
Grantor Trust Certificateholder's  interest in those Mortgage  Assets meeting
the  conditions necessary  for  these  sections to  apply.   Rules  regarding
periodic inclusion of OID income  are applicable to mortgages of corporations
originated after  May 27, 1969,  mortgages of noncorporate  mortgagors (other
than individuals) originated after July 1, 1982, and mortgages of individuals
originated after March  2, 1984.  Such  OID could arise  by the financing  of
points or  other charges  by the  originator of  the mortgages  in an  amount
greater than  a statutory de minimis exception to  the extent that the points
are not currently deductible under applicable Code provisions or  are not for
services provided by  the lender.  OID generally must be reported as ordinary
gross income as it accrues under a constant interest method.  See "--Multiple
Classes  of Grantor Trust  Certificates--Accrual of Original  Issue Discount"
below.

    Market  Discount.   A Grantor  Trust Certificateholder  that  acquires an
undivided interest in Mortgage  Assets may be subject to  the market discount
rules of Code Sections 1276 through 1278 to the extent an  undivided interest
in  a  Mortgage Asset  is  considered to  have  been purchased  at  a "market
discount."  Generally, the amount of  market discount is equal to the  excess
of the portion  of the principal amount  of such Mortgage Asset  allocable to
such  holder's  undivided interest  over  such  holder's  tax basis  in  such
interest.  Market discount with  respect to a Grantor Trust  Certificate will
be considered  to  be zero  if  the amount  allocable  to the  Grantor  Trust
Certificate  is less  than 0.25%  of the  Grantor Trust  Certificate's stated
redemption  price at  maturity multiplied  by the  weighted average  maturity
remaining after the date of  purchase.  Treasury regulations implementing the
market discount rules  have not yet been issued;  therefore, investors should
consult their own tax advisors regarding  the application of these rules  and
the advisability of  making any of the elections allowed  under Code Sections
1276 through 1278.

    The  Code  provides  that  any  principal  payment  (whether  a scheduled
payment or a prepayment) or any gain on disposition of a market discount bond
acquired by the  taxpayer after October 22, 1986 shall be treated as ordinary
income to the extent  that it does not exceed the  accrued market discount at
the time of such payment.  The amount of accrued market discount for purposes
of  determining  the  tax  treatment  of  subsequent  principal  payments  or
dispositions of the market discount  bond is to be  reduced by the amount  so
treated as ordinary income.

    The  Code   also  grants  the  Treasury  Department  authority  to  issue
regulations providing for the computation  of accrued market discount on debt
instruments, the principal of which is payable in more than one  installment.
While the Treasury Department has not yet issued regulations, rules described
in  the relevant  legislative history  will apply.   Under  those  rules, the
holder of a market discount bond  may elect to accrue market discount  either
on the basis of a constant interest rate or according to one of the following
methods.  If  a Grantor Trust Certificate  is issued with OID,  the amount of
market discount that  accrues during any accrual period would be equal to the
product of  (i) the total remaining market discount  and (ii) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the OID accruing  during the period and the denominator
of which is the  total remaining OID at the beginning of  the accrual period.
For  Grantor Trust  Certificates issued  without  OID, the  amount of  market
discount  that accrues  during a period  is equal  to the product  of (i) the
total remaining market discount and  (ii) a fraction, the numerator  of which
is the  amount of  stated interest  paid during  the accrual  period and  the
denominator of which is  the total amount of stated interest  remaining to be
paid at  the beginning of  the accrual period.   For purposes  of calculating
market  discount under any  of the above  methods in the  case of instruments
(such as the Grantor  Trust Certificates) that provide for  payments that may
be accelerated  by reason of  prepayments of other obligations  securing such
instruments, the  same prepayment  assumption applicable  to calculating  the
accrual of OID will apply.  Because  the regulations described above have not
been issued, it is impossible to predict what effect  those regulations might
have on  the tax  treatment of  a Grantor  Trust Certificate  purchased at  a
discount or premium in the secondary market.

    A holder  who acquired a Grantor  Trust Certificate at a  market discount
also may be required  to defer a portion  of its interest deductions  for the
taxable  year  attributable to  any  indebtedness  incurred or  continued  to
purchase  or  carry such  Grantor  Trust  Certificate  purchased with  market
discount.  For these purposes, the de minimis rule referred to above applies.
Any such deferred interest expense would  not exceed the market discount that
accrues during  such taxable year and is, in  general, allowed as a deduction
not  later  than the  year in  which  such market  discount is  includible in
income.  If such holder elects to include market discount in income currently
as it  accrues on all market discount instruments  acquired by such holder in
that taxable year  or thereafter, the interest deferral  rule described above
will not apply.

    Election  to Treat  All Interest  as OID.   The OID  Regulations permit a
Certificateholder to  elect to  accrue all  interest, discount  (including de
minimis market or original issue discount) and premium in income as interest,
based on a constant yield method for  Certificates acquired on or after April
4, 1994.  If such an election were to be made with respect to a Grantor Trust
Certificate with  market discount, the  Certificateholder would be  deemed to
have  made an election  to include in  income currently market  discount with
respect  to all  other  debt  instruments having  market  discount that  such
Certificateholder acquires  during the  year of the  election or  thereafter.
Similarly, a  Certificateholder that  makes this  election for a  Certificate
that  is acquired at  a premium will  be deemed to  have made  an election to
amortize bond premium with respect to all debt instruments having amortizable
bond premium  that such  Certificateholder owns or  acquires.   See "Premium"
herein.  The  election to accrue interest, discount and premium on a constant
yield method with respect to a Certificate is irrevocable.

    Anti-abuse Rule.  The  IRS can apply or  depart from the rules  contained
in the OID Regulations  as necessary or  appropriate to achieve a  reasonable
result where  a principal purpose  in structuring a Mortgage  Asset, Mortgage
Loan or Grantor  Trust Certificate  or the effect  of applying the  otherwise
applicable rules is to achieve a result  that is unreasonable in light of the
purposes of the applicable statutes  (which generally are intended to achieve
the  clear  reflection  of  income  for  both  issuers  and  holders of  debt
instruments).

B.  MULTIPLE CLASSES OF GRANTOR TRUST CERTIFICATES

    1.  Stripped Bonds and Stripped Coupons

    Pursuant to Code Section 1286,  the separation of ownership of  the right
to  receive  some or  all  of the  interest  payments on  an  obligation from
ownership of  the right  to receive  some or  all of  the principal  payments
results  in  the creation  of  "stripped  bonds"  with respect  to  principal
payments  and "stripped  coupons" with  respect  to interest  payments.   For
purposes of  Code Sections  1271 through  1288,  Code Section  1286 treats  a
stripped  bond or a stripped coupon as  an obligation issued on the date that
such  stripped interest is  created.   If a  Trust Fund  is created  with two
classes  of   Grantor  Trust  Certificates,   one  class  of   Grantor  Trust
Certificates may represent the right  to principal and interest, or principal
only,  on  all  or a  portion  of  the Mortgage  Assets  (the  "Stripped Bond
Certificates"), while  the second  class of  Grantor  Trust Certificates  may
represent the right  to some  or all  of the  interest on  such portion  (the
"Stripped Coupon Certificates").

    Servicing  fees   in  excess  of   reasonable  servicing   fees  ("excess
servicing") will be  treated under the  stripped bond rules.   If the  excess
servicing  fee is  less  than 100  basis  points (i.e.,  1%  interest on  the
Mortgage Asset principal balance) or the Certificates are initially sold with
a de minimis discount  (assuming no prepayment  assumption is  required), any
non-de  minimis   discount  arising  from   a  subsequent  transfer   of  the
Certificates should  be  treated as  market  discount.   The  IRS appears  to
require that reasonable servicing fees  be calculated on a Mortgage  Asset by
Mortgage  Asset basis,  which  could  result in  some  Mortgage Assets  being
treated as having more than 100  basis points of interest stripped off.   See
"--Non-REMIC   Certificates"  and   "Multiple   Classes   of  Grantor   Trust
Certificates--Stripped Bonds and Stripped Coupons" herein.

    Although not  entirely  clear,  a  Stripped  Bond  Certificate  generally
should  be treated as an  interest in Mortgage Assets  issued on the day such
Certificate is purchased for purposes of  calculating any OID.  Generally, if
the  discount on  a Mortgage  Asset is  larger than a  de minimis  amount (as
calculated for purposes of  the OID rules) a purchaser of  such a Certificate
will be required to accrue the discount under the OID rules of the Code.  See
"--Non-REMIC Certificates" and "--Single Class of Grantor Trust Certificates-
- -Original Issue Discount" herein.   However, a purchaser  of a Stripped  Bond
Certificate will  be required  to account  for any  discount on  the Mortgage
Assets as  market discount rather  than OID if either  (i) the amount  of OID
with  respect to  the Mortgage Assets  is treated  as zero  under the  OID de
minimis rule when the Certificate was stripped or (ii) no more than 100 basis
points  (including any  amount  of  servicing fees  in  excess of  reasonable
servicing  fees)  is  stripped  off  of the  Trust  Fund's  Mortgage  Assets.
Pursuant to Revenue Procedure 91-49, issued on  August 8, 1991, purchasers of
Stripped Bond  Certificates using an  inconsistent method of  accounting must
change their method of accounting  and request the consent of the IRS  to the
change in  their accounting  method on  a statement attached  to their  first
timely tax return filed after August 8, 1991.

    The  precise   tax   treatment  of   Stripped   Coupon  Certificates   is
substantially uncertain.   The Code could  be read literally to  require that
OID computations be made  for each payment from each Mortgage  Asset.  Unless
otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, all payments from a
Mortgage Asset underlying a Stripped Coupon  Certificate will be treated as a
single installment obligation subject to the OID  rules of the Code, in which
case, all payments from such Mortgage Asset would be included in the Mortgage
Asset's stated  redemption  price at  maturity  for purposes  of  calculating
income on such Certificate under the OID rules of the Code.

    It  is  unclear under  what  circumstances,  if any,  the  prepayment  of
Mortgage Assets  will give rise to  a loss to  the holder of a  Stripped Bond
Certificate purchased at a premium or a Stripped Coupon Certificate.  If such
Certificate is  treated as a  single instrument (rather  than an interest  in
discrete mortgage loans)  and the effect of prepayments is taken into account
in computing yield with respect to such Grantor Trust Certificate, it appears
that no  loss will  be available  as a  result of  any particular  prepayment
unless  prepayments occur at a rate  faster than the assumed prepayment rate.
However, if such  Certificate is treated as an  interest in discrete Mortgage
Assets, or if no prepayment assumption is used, then when a Mortgage Asset is
prepaid, the holder  of such Certificate should  be able to recognize  a loss
equal to the portion of the adjusted issue price of  such Certificate that is
allocable to such Mortgage Asset.

    Holders of  Stripped Bond Certificates  and Stripped  Coupon Certificates
are  urged  to consult  with  their  own tax  advisors  regarding the  proper
treatment of these Certificates for federal income tax purposes.

    Treatment  of Certain Owners.   Several Code  sections provide beneficial
treatment  to certain taxpayers  that invest in  Mortgage Assets of  the type
that  make  up the  Trust  Fund.   With respect  to  these Code  sections, no
specific  legal  authority exists  regarding  whether  the character  of  the
Grantor Trust Certificates, for federal income tax purposes, will be the same
as that of the underlying  Mortgage Assets.  While Code Section 1286 treats a
stripped  obligation  as a  separate  obligation  for  purposes of  the  Code
provisions  addressing OID,  it is  not clear  whether  such characterization
would apply with regard to these other  Code sections.  Although the issue is
not  free  from doubt,  each  class  of  Grantor Trust  Certificates,  unless
otherwise  specified  in   the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,   should  be
considered  to represent  "real estate  assets"  within the  meaning of  Code
Section 856(c)(4)(A)  and "loans .   .   .  secured  by, an interest  in real
property  which is .  .  .   residential real property" within the meaning of
Code Section 7701(a)(19)(C)(v),  and interest income attributable  to Grantor
Trust Certificates should be considered to represent "interest on obligations
secured  by mortgages on  real property" within  the meaning  of Code Section
856(c)(3)(B), provided that  in each case the underlying  Mortgage Assets and
interest on  such Mortgage  Assets qualify for  such treatment.   Prospective
purchasers to which such characterization of an investment in Certificates is
material should consult their own tax advisors regarding the characterization
of the Grantor  Trust Certificates and the  income therefrom.  Grantor  Trust
Certificates will be "obligation(s) ...   which (are) principally secured, by
an  interest   in  real  property"   within  the  meaning  of   Code  Section
860G(a)(3)(A).

    2.   Grantor  Trust  Certificates Representing  Interests in  Loans Other
Than ARM Loans

    The original  issue discount  rules of  Code Sections  1271 through  1275
will be applicable to a Certificateholder's interest in those Mortgage Assets
as to which  the conditions for  the application of  those sections are  met.
Rules regarding periodic  inclusion of original issue discount  in income are
applicable  to  mortgages of  corporations  originated  after May  27,  1969,
mortgages  of noncorporate  mortgagors  (other than  individuals)  originated
after July  1, 1982, and mortgages  of individuals originated  after March 2,
1984.  Under the OID Regulations, such original issue discount could arise by
the charging of points by the originator of the mortgage in an amount greater
than the statutory de minimis  exception, including a payment of points  that
is currently deductible by the  borrower under applicable Code provisions, or
under  certain  circumstances, by  the  presence  of  "teaser" rates  on  the
Mortgage Assets.  OID on each  Grantor Trust Certificate must be included  in
the owner's ordinary income for federal income tax purposes as it accrues, in
accordance  with a  constant  interest  method that  takes  into account  the
compounding of  interest, in advance  of receipt of the  cash attributable to
such income.  The amount of OID required to be included in  an owner's income
in any  taxable year with respect to a Grantor Trust Certificate representing
an interest in Mortgage Assets other than Mortgage Assets with interest rates
that adjust periodically  ("ARM Loans") likely will be  computed as described
below under "--Accrual of Original Issue Discount." The following  discussion
is based  in part on the OID Regulations and in part on the provisions of the
Tax Reform Act of 1986 (the  "1986 Act").  The OID Regulations  generally are
effective for debt instruments  issued on or after April 4, 1994,  but may be
relied  upon as  authority  with respect  to debt  instruments,  such as  the
Grantor Trust Certificates,  issued after December 21, 1992.   Alternatively,
proposed  Treasury regulations  issued December  21, 1992  may be  treated as
authority for debt instruments  issued after December  21, 1992 and prior  to
April 4, 1994, and proposed Treasury regulations issued in 1986 and  1991 may
be treated as authority for instruments issued  before December 21, 1992.  In
applying these dates,  the issued date of the Mortgage Assets should be used,
or,  in   the  case  of   Stripped  Bond  Certificates  or   Stripped  Coupon
Certificates, the  date such  Certificates  are acquired.   The  holder of  a
Certificate  should  be  aware,  however,  that  neither  the   proposed  OID
Regulations  nor  the  OID  Regulations  adequately  address  certain  issues
relevant to prepayable securities.

    Under  the  Code,  the  Mortgage  Assets  underlying  the  Grantor  Trust
Certificate will  be treated  as having  been issued  on the  date they  were
originated with an amount of OID equal to the excess of such Mortgage Asset's
stated redemption price at maturity over its issue price.  The issue price of
a Mortgage Asset is generally the amount lent to the mortgagee, which may  be
adjusted  to take into  account certain  loan origination  fees.   The stated
redemption price at maturity of a Mortgage  Asset is the sum of all  payments
to be made on  such Mortgage Asset  other than payments  that are treated  as
qualified stated interest  payments.  The accrual  of this OID,  as described
below  under "--Accrual of  Original Issue Discount,"  will, unless otherwise
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, utilize the original yield to
maturity of  the Grantor Trust  Certificate calculated based on  a reasonable
assumed prepayment rate  for the mortgage loans underlying  the Grantor Trust
Certificates (the "Prepayment Assumption") on  the issue date of such Grantor
Trust Certificate, and will  take into account events  that occur during  the
calculation  period.   The Prepayment  Assumption will  be determined  in the
manner prescribed  by regulations  that have  not yet  been issued.   In  the
absence  of such  regulations, the  Prepayment  Assumption used  will be  the
prepayment  assumption that is used in determining the offering price of such
Certificate.  No representation is made  that any Certificate will prepay  at
the Prepayment  Assumption or at any  other rate.  The  prepayment assumption
contained   in  the  Code   literally  only   applies  to   debt  instruments
collateralized  by  other debt  instruments  that are  subject  to prepayment
rather than direct ownership interests in such debt instruments, such as  the
Certificates represent.  However, no  other legal authority provides guidance
with regard to  the proper method  for accruing OID  on obligations that  are
subject  to prepayment,  and, until  further guidance  is issued,  the Master
Servicer  intends to  calculate and  report  OID under  the method  described
below.

    Accrual of Original  Issue Discount.  Generally,  the owner of  a Grantor
Trust  Certificate  must include  in  gross  income  the  sum of  the  "daily
portions," as defined below, of the OID on such Grantor Trust Certificate for
each day on  which it owns such  Certificate, including the date  of purchase
but excluding the date of disposition.  In the case of an original owner, the
daily portions  of OID  with  respect to  each  component generally  will  be
determined  as set forth  under the OID  Regulations.  A  calculation will be
made by the  Master Servicer or  such other entity  specified in the  related
Prospectus  Supplement  of  the  portion  of OID  that  accrues  during  each
successive  monthly  accrual period  (or  shorter  period  from the  date  of
original issue) that  ends on the day  in the calendar year  corresponding to
each of the  Distribution Dates on the Grantor Trust Certificates (or the day
prior to each such date).  This will be done, in the case  of each full month
accrual period, by (i) adding (a) the present value at the end of the accrual
period  (determined by  using  as a  discount  factor the  original yield  to
maturity of the respective component  under the Prepayment Assumption) of all
remaining  payments to  be received  under the  Prepayment Assumption  on the
respective component and  (b) any payments included in  the stated redemption
price at maturity  received during such accrual period,  and (ii) subtracting
from that total the "adjusted issue price" of the respective component at the
beginning  of such  accrual period.   The adjusted  issue price of  a Grantor
Trust Certificate  at the beginning of the first  accrual period is its issue
price;  the  adjusted issue  price  of  a Grantor  Trust  Certificate at  the
beginning of a subsequent accrual period  is the adjusted issue price at  the
beginning of the immediately preceding accrual period  plus the amount of OID
allocable to that accrual  period reduced by the amount of  any payment other
than a payment of qualified stated interest made at the end of or during that
accrual  period.  The  OID accruing during  such accrual period  will then be
divided by the number of days in the period to determine the daily portion of
OID for each  day in the period.   With respect to an  initial accrual period
shorter than a full monthly accrual period, the daily portions of OID must be
determined  according to  an  appropriate  allocation  under  any  reasonable
method.

    Original  issue discount  generally must  be reported  as  ordinary gross
income as it accrues under a constant interest method that takes into account
the  compounding  of  interest  as  it accrues  rather  than  when  received.
However, the amount of original issue discount  includible in the income of a
holder of an  obligation is reduced when the obligation is acquired after its
initial issuance at a price greater than the  sum of the original issue price
and the  previously accrued original  issue discount, less prior  payments of
principal.     Accordingly,   if   such  Mortgage   Assets   acquired  by   a
Certificateholder are purchased at a price equal to the then unpaid principal
amount of such Mortgage Asset, no original issue discount attributable to the
difference between the  issue price and the original principal amount of such
Mortgage Asset  (i.e.   points) will  be includible  by such  holder.   Other
original issue discount  on the Mortgage  Assets (e.g.,  that arising from  a
"teaser" rate) would still need to be accrued.

    3.  Grantor Trust Certificates Representing Interests in ARM Loans

    The OID Regulations do not address the  treatment of instruments, such as
the  Grantor  Trust Certificates,  which  represent interests  in  ARM Loans.
Additionally,  the  IRS has  not  issued  guidance  under the  Code's  coupon
stripping rules  with respect  to such instruments.   In  the absence  of any
authority, the Master Servicer will  report OID on Grantor Trust Certificates
attributable to ARM Loans ("Stripped ARM Obligations") to holders in a manner
it believes is consistent with the rules described above under the heading "-
- -Grantor Trust Certificates  Representing Interests in  Loans Other Than  ARM
Loans" and with  the OID Regulations.  In general, application of these rules
may require inclusion  of income on a  Stripped ARM Obligation in  advance of
the receipt of  cash attributable to such  income.  Further, the  addition of
interest deferred by reason of negative amortization ("Deferred Interest") to
the principal balance of an ARM Loan may require the inclusion of such amount
in  the  income of  the  Grantor  Trust  Certificateholder when  such  amount
accrues.  Furthermore, the addition of Deferred Interest to the Grantor Trust
Certificate's principal balance  will result in additional  income (including
possibly  OID  income)  to  the  Grantor  Trust  Certificateholder  over  the
remaining life of such Grantor Trust Certificates.

    Because  the  treatment  of   Stripped  ARM  Obligations  is   uncertain,
investors are urged to consult  their tax advisors regarding how  income will
be includible with respect to such Certificates.

C.  SALE OR EXCHANGE OF A GRANTOR TRUST CERTIFICATE

    Sale or exchange  of a Grantor  Trust Certificate  prior to its  maturity
will  result in  gain or loss  equal to  the difference, if  any, between the
amount  received  and  the  owner's  adjusted  basis  in  the  Grantor  Trust
Certificate.  Such adjusted basis  generally will equal the seller's purchase
price for the Grantor Trust Certificate, increased by the OID included in the
seller's  gross income  with respect  to the  Grantor Trust  Certificate, and
reduced by  principal payments  on the  Grantor Trust Certificate  previously
received by the seller.  Such gain or loss will be capital gain or loss to an
owner for  which a Grantor Trust Certificate is  a "capital asset" within the
meaning of Code Section 1221,  and will be long-term or short-term  depending
on whether the  Grantor Trust Certificate  has been owned  for the  long-term
capital gain holding period (currently more than one year).

    The Taxpayer Relief Act of  1997 (the "Act") reduces the maximum rates on
long-term capital  gains  recognized on  capital  assets held  by  individual
taxpayers for more  than eighteen months as  of the date of  disposition (and
would further reduce  the maximum rates  on such gains in  the year 2001  and
thereafter for certain  individual taxpayers who meet  specified conditions).
The capital gains rate  for capital assets held  by individual taxpayers  for
more than twelve months but not more than eighteen months  was not changed by
the Act.  The Act  does not change the capital gains rates  for corporations.
Prospective investors should consult their own  tax advisors concerning these
tax law changes.

    It  is possible  that capital  gain realized  by holders  of one  or more
classes of Grantor Trust Certificates  could be considered gain realized upon
the disposition  of property that was part of  a "conversion transaction."  A
sale of a Grantor Trust Certificate will  be part of a conversion transaction
if substantially all of the  holder's expected return is attributable  to the
time  value of the  holder's net investment,  and (i) the  holder entered the
contract   to    sell   the    Grantor   Trust    Certificate   substantially
contemporaneously  with acquiring  the Grantor  Trust  Certificate, (ii)  the
Grantor  Trust Certificate  is part of  a straddle,  (iii) the  Grantor Trust
Certificate  is marketed  or sold  as producing capital  gain, or  (iv) other
transactions to be specified in Treasury  regulations that have not yet  been
issued.   If the sale or other disposition of  a Grantor Trust Certificate is
part of a  conversion transaction, all  or any portion  of the gain  realized
upon  the sale  or  other disposition  would  be treated  as ordinary  income
instead of capital gain.

    Grantor  Trust Certificates  will be  "evidences of  indebtedness" within
the meaning  of Code Section 582(c)(1), so that  gain or loss recognized from
the sale of a Grantor Trust Certificate  by a bank or a thrift institution to
which such section applies will be treated as ordinary income or loss.

D.  NON-U.S. PERSONS

    Generally,  to the  extent  that a  Grantor  Trust Certificate  evidences
ownership in underlying  Mortgage Assets that were  issued on or before  July
18, 1984, interest or  OID paid by the person required  to withhold tax under
Code  Section 1441  or 1442 to  (i) an  owner that is  not a  U.S. Person (as
defined below) or (ii) a Grantor Trust Certificateholder holding on behalf of
an  owner that is  not a U.S. Person  will be subject  to federal income tax,
collected by  withholding, at  a rate  of 30% or  such lower  rate as  may be
provided  for interest by  an applicable  tax treaty,  unless such  income is
effectively  connected with  a  U.S.  trade  or business  of  such  owner  or
beneficial  owner.   Accrued  OID recognized  by  the owner  on  the sale  or
exchange of such a Grantor Trust Certificate also will be subject  to federal
income tax at  the same rate.  Generally, such payments  would not be subject
to  withholding to  the extent  that  a Grantor  Trust Certificate  evidences
ownership  in Mortgage Assets issued after  July 18, 1984, by natural persons
if  such Grantor Trust Certificateholder complies with certain identification
requirements (including delivery of a  statement, signed by the Grantor Trust
Certificateholder  under penalties of  perjury, certifying that  such Grantor
Trust  Certificateholder is  not a  U.S. Person  and providing  the name  and
address of such Grantor Trust Certificateholder).  To  the extent payments to
Grantor Trust  Certificateholders that are  not U.S. Persons are  payments of
"contingent interest"  on the  underlying  Mortgage Assets,  or such  Grantor
Trust Certificateholder  is ineligible  for the  exemption  described in  the
preceding  sentence,  the   30%  withholding  tax  will   apply  unless  such
withholding taxes are reduced  or eliminated by an applicable tax  treaty and
such holder meets the eligibility and certification requirements necessary to
obtain  the  benefits of  such  treaty.    Additional restrictions  apply  to
Mortgage  Assets of where the mortgagor  is not a natural  person in order to
qualify for the exemption from withholding.  If capital gain derived from the
sale,  retirement or  other disposition  of  a Grantor  Trust Certificate  is
effectively connected  with  a U.S.  trade  or business  of a  Grantor  Trust
Certificateholder that is  not a U.S. Person, such  Certificateholder will be
taxed on  the net  gain under  the graduated  U.S. federal  income tax  rates
applicable to U.S.  Persons (and, with respect to  Grantor Trust Certificates
held by or on  behalf of corporations, also may be  subject to branch profits
tax). In  addition, if the Trust Fund acquires  a United States real property
interest  through foreclosure, deed in lieu  of foreclosure or otherwise on a
Mortgage Asset secured  by such an interest (which  for this purpose includes
real property located in the United States and the Virgin Islands), a Grantor
Trust Certificateholder that is not a U.S. Person will potentially be subject
to federal income tax on any gain attributable to such real property interest
that is allocable to such  holder. Non-U.S. Persons should consult their  tax
advisors regarding the application to them of the foregoing rules.

    As  used herein,  a "U.S.  Person"  means a  citizen or  resident of  the
United States, a corporation or a partnership  organized in or under the laws
of  the  United States  or any  political subdivision  thereof (other  than a
partnership  that is  not  treated as  a  U.S.  Person under  any  applicable
Treasury regulations), an estate the income of which from sources outside the
United States is includible in  gross income for federal income  tax purposes
regardless of  its connection with the conduct of  a trade or business within
the  United States or a trust if a  court within the United States is able to
exercise  primary supervision of  the administration of the  trust and one or
more U.S. Persons have the authority to control all substantial  decisions of
the trust.  In addition, certain trusts treated as U.S. Persons before August
20,  1996 may elect  to continue to be  so treated to  the extent provided in
regulations.

E.  INFORMATION REPORTING AND BACKUP WITHHOLDING

    The Master Servicer  will furnish or make available, within  a reasonable
time after  the  end  of  each  calendar  year, to  each  person  who  was  a
Certificateholder at  any time during such  year, such information as  may be
deemed necessary or desirable to assist Certificateholders in preparing their
federal income tax  returns, or to  enable holders to  make such  information
available to  beneficial owners  or financial intermediaries  that hold  such
Certificates  as nominees  on behalf  of  beneficial owners.    If a  holder,
beneficial owner, financial  intermediary or other recipient of  a payment on
behalf  of  a   beneficial  owner  fails  to  supply   a  certified  taxpayer
identification number  or if  the Secretary of  the Treasury  determines that
such person has  not reported all interest and dividend income required to be
shown  on its  federal  income  tax return,  31%  backup withholding  may  be
required  with  respect to  any payments  to  registered owners  who  are not
"exempt  recipients."    In  addition,  upon the  sale  of  a  Grantor  Trust
Certificate  to (or through)  a broker, the  broker must withhold  31% of the
entire  purchase price,  unless either  (i)  the broker  determines that  the
seller is  a  corporation  or other  exempt  recipient, or  (ii)  the  seller
provides, in the required manner, certain identifying information and, in the
case of a non-U.S.  Person, certifies that such seller is  a Non-U.S. Person,
and certain  other conditions are met.  Such as sale must also be reported by
the broker  to the  IRS, unless  either (a)  the broker  determines that  the
seller is an exempt recipient or (b) the seller certifies its non-U.S. Person
status  (and  certain  other  conditions  are met).    Certification  of  the
registered owner's non-U.S. Person  status normally would be made on IRS Form
W-8 under penalties of perjury, although in  certain cases it may be possible
to submit other documentary evidence.  Any amounts deducted and withheld from
a distribution  to a  recipient would  be allowed  as a  credit against  such
recipient's federal income tax liability.

    On October 6,  1997, the Treasury Department issued new  regulations (the
"New  Regulations")  which  make certain  modifications  to  the withholding,
backup withholding and information reporting  rules described above.  The New
Regulations attempt to  unify certification requirements and  modify reliance
standards.  The New Regulations will generally be effective for payments made
after December  31, 1998, subject  to certain transition rules.   Prospective
investors  are urged  to consult  their own  tax advisors  regarding the  New
Regulations.

REMICS

    The  Trust Fund  relating to  a Series  of Certificates  may elect  to be
treated as  a REMIC.   Qualification as a  REMIC requires  ongoing compliance
with certain  conditions.   Although  a  REMIC is  not  generally subject  to
federal  income tax  (see, however  "--Taxation of  Owners of  REMIC Residual
Certificates" and "--Prohibited  Transactions" below), if  a Trust Fund  with
respect to which a REMIC election is made fails to comply with one or more of
the  ongoing requirements of  the Code  for REMIC  status during  any taxable
year,  including  the  implementation of  restrictions  on  the purchase  and
transfer  of the  residual  interests in  a  REMIC as  described  below under
"Taxation of Owners of REMIC Residual Certificates," the Code provides that a
Trust  Fund will not be treated as a  REMIC for such year and thereafter.  In
that event,  such entity may  be taxable as  a separate corporation,  and the
related Certificates  (the  "REMIC Certificates")  may  not be  accorded  the
status or given the tax treatment described below.  While the Code authorizes
the Treasury Department to issue regulations providing relief in the event of
an inadvertent termination of the status of a trust fund  as a REMIC, no such
regulations have been issued.  Any  such relief, moreover, may be accompanied
by  sanctions, such as the imposition of a  corporate tax on all or a portion
of the  REMIC's income  for the  period in  which the  requirements for  such
status are  not satisfied.  With respect to each Trust Fund that elects REMIC
status,  Latham &  Watkins  or Brown  &  Wood LLP  will  deliver its  opinion
generally to the effect that, under then existing law and assuming compliance
with  all provisions  of the  related Pooling  and Servicing  Agreement, such
Trust  Fund will  qualify as a  REMIC, and  the related Certificates  will be
considered to be  regular interests ("REMIC Regular Certificates")  or a sole
class of residual  interests ("REMIC  Residual Certificates")  in the  REMIC.
The related  Prospectus  Supplement  for  each Series  of  Certificates  will
indicate whether  the Trust  Fund will make  a REMIC  election and  whether a
class of Certificates  will be treated as  a regular or residual  interest in
the REMIC.

    In general,  with respect  to each  Series  of Certificates  for which  a
REMIC election is made, (i) Certificates  held by a thrift institution  taxed
as  a  "domestic  building  and  loan  association"  will  constitute  assets
described  in Code Section  7701(a)(19)(C); (ii) Certificates held  by a real
estate  investment  trust will  constitute  "real estate  assets"  within the
meaning of Code Section 856(c)(4)(A); and (iii) interest on Certificates held
by a real estate investment trust will be considered "interest on obligations
secured by mortgages  on real  property" within the  meaning of Code  Section
856(c)(3)(B).  If less than 95%  of the REMIC's assets are assets  qualifying
under any of the foregoing Code sections, the Certificates will be qualifying
assets only to the extent that the REMIC's assets are qualifying assets.

    In  some instances  the Mortgage  Assets may not  be treated  entirely as
assets  described in  the  foregoing  sections.   See,  in  this regard,  the
discussion  of Buydown Loans  contained in  "--Non-REMIC Certificates--Single
Class of  Grantor Trust Certificates"  above.  REMIC  Certificates held  by a
real  estate investment  trust will  not  constitute "Government  Securities"
within the meaning of Code  Section 856(c)(4)(A), and REMIC Certificates held
by a regulated investment company will not constitute "Government Securities"
within the meaning of Code Section 851(b)(4)(A)(ii).  REMIC Certificates held
by certain financial institutions will constitute "evidences of indebtedness"
within the meaning of Code Section 582(c)(1).

    A "qualified  mortgage" for REMIC  purposes is any  obligation (including
certificates  of participation  in such  an obligation)  that is  principally
secured by an interest in real property and  that is transferred to the REMIC
within a prescribed time period in exchange for regular or residual interests
in  the REMIC.   The REMIC Regulations  provide that manufactured  housing or
mobile  homes  (not  including  recreational  vehicles,  campers  or  similar
vehicles) that  are "single family  residences" under Code  Section 25(e)(10)
will qualify  as real property  without regard to state  law classifications.
Under  Code  Section  25(e)(10),  a  single  family  residence  includes  any
manufactured home that has a minimum of 400 square feet of living space and a
minimum width in excess of 102 inches and  that is of a kind customarily used
at a fixed location.

    Tiered REMIC  Structures.   For certain  Series of  Certificates, two  or
more  separate elections  may  be made  to treat  designated portions  of the
related Trust  Fund as REMICs  (respectively, the "Subsidiary REMIC"  and the
"Master REMIC") for  federal income tax purposes.   Upon the issuance  of any
such Series of Certificates, Latham & Watkins or Brown & Wood LLP, counsel to
the  Depositor,  will deliver  its  opinion  generally  to the  effect  that,
assuming compliance with all provisions  of the related Agreement, the Master
REMIC as well as  any Subsidiary REMIC will each qualify as  a REMIC, and the
REMIC Certificates  issued by the  Master REMIC and  the Subsidiary REMIC  or
REMICs, respectively,  will be  considered to evidence  ownership of  regular
interests  ("REMIC  Regular  Certificates")  or  residual  interests  ("REMIC
Residual Certificates") in the related REMIC within  the meaning of the REMIC
provisions.

    Other  than the  residual  interest in  a  Subsidiary REMIC,  only  REMIC
Certificates  issued by  the Master  REMIC will  be offered  hereunder.   The
Subsidiary REMIC or REMICs and the Master REMIC will be treated as one  REMIC
solely for purposes of determining whether the REMIC Certificates will be (i)
"real estate assets" within the meaning of Section 856(c)(4)(A) of  the Code;
(ii)  "loans  secured  by  an   interest  in  real  property"  under  Section
7701(a)(19)(C) of the Code; and (iii) whether the income on such Certificates
is interest described in Section 856(c)(3)(B) of the Code.

A.  TAXATION OF OWNERS OF REMIC REGULAR CERTIFICATES

    General.   Except as otherwise stated  in this discussion,  REMIC Regular
Certificates  will  be  treated  for  federal income  tax  purposes  as  debt
instruments issued  by the REMIC and not as  ownership interests in the REMIC
or  its  assets.    Moreover,  holders of  REMIC  Regular  Certificates  that
otherwise report income under a cash method of accounting will be required to
report income  with respect  to REMIC Regular  Certificates under  an accrual
method.

    Original Issue Discount and Premium.   The REMIC Regular Certificates may
be issued with OID.   Generally, such OID, if any,  will equal the difference
between  the  "stated  redemption  price  at maturity"  of  a  REMIC  Regular
Certificate  and its  "issue price."  Holders  of any  class of  Certificates
issued  with OID will  be required  to include such  OID in gross  income for
federal income  tax purposes  as it  accrues, in  accordance with  a constant
interest  method based on  the compounding of  interest as  it accrues rather
than  in accordance  with receipt of  the interest  payments.   The following
discussion  is  based in  part  on the  OID Regulations  and  in part  on the
provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986  (the "1986 Act").  Holders of REMIC
Regular  Certificates (the  "REMIC  Regular  Certificateholders")  should  be
aware, however,  that the OID  Regulations do not adequately  address certain
issues  relevant  to  prepayable  securities,   such  as  the  REMIC  Regular
Certificates.

    Rules  governing OID are set forth in Code Sections 1271 through 1273 and
1275.  These  rules require that  the amount  and rate of  accrual of OID  be
calculated  based   on  the   Prepayment  Assumption   and  the   anticipated
reinvestment rate,  if any,  relating to the  REMIC Regular  Certificates and
prescribe a  method for  adjusting the  amount and  rate of  accrual of  such
discount  where the  actual  prepayment  rate  differs  from  the  Prepayment
Assumption.  Under the Code, the  Prepayment Assumption must be determined in
the manner  prescribed by  regulations, which regulations  have not  yet been
issued.  The legislative history of the 1986 Act  (the "Legislative History")
provides, however, that Congress intended the regulations to require that the
Prepayment   Assumption  be  the  prepayment   assumption  that  is  used  in
determining the  initial offering price  of such REMIC  Regular Certificates.
The Prospectus Supplement for each  Series of REMIC Regular Certificates will
specify the Prepayment Assumption to  be used for the purpose of  determining
the amount and rate  of accrual of OID.   No representation is made that  the
REMIC Regular Certificates will prepay at the Prepayment Assumption or at any
other rate.

    In general, each  REMIC Regular Certificate will  be treated as a  single
installment obligation issued  with an amount of  OID equal to the  excess of
its "stated redemption  price at maturity" over its  "issue price." The issue
price  of  a  REMIC  Regular  Certificate  is  the  first  price  at  which a
substantial amount of REMIC Regular Certificates of that class are first sold
to the  public (excluding bond houses, brokers, underwriters or wholesalers).
If less  than a  substantial amount of  a particular  class of  REMIC Regular
Certificates  is sold  for cash  on or  prior to  the date  of their  initial
issuance (the "Closing Date"), the issue price for such class will be treated
as the fair market value of such class  on the Closing Date.  The issue price
of a REMIC  Regular Certificate also includes  the amount paid by  an initial
Certificateholder for accrued interest that relates to  a period prior to the
issue date of the REMIC Regular Certificate.  The stated redemption  price at
maturity  of  a REMIC  Regular  Certificate includes  the  original principal
amount  of the  REMIC Regular  Certificate,  but generally  will not  include
distributions  of interest if such distributions constitute "qualified stated
interest."  Qualified  stated interest generally means interest  payable at a
single fixed  rate or qualified  variable rate (as described  below) provided
that such interest  payments are unconditionally payable at  intervals of one
year or  less  during  the entire  term  of the  REMIC  Regular  Certificate.
Interest is  payable at a  single fixed rate  only if the  rate appropriately
takes  into   account   the  length   of  the   interval  between   payments.
Distributions of interest on REMIC Regular Certificates with respect to which
Deferred Interest will accrue  will not constitute qualified stated  interest
payments, and the  stated redemption price at maturity  of such REMIC Regular
Certificates  includes  all distributions  of interest  as well  as principal
thereon.

    Where the  interval between  the issue  date and  the first  Distribution
Date on  a REMIC  Regular  Certificate is  longer than  the interval  between
subsequent Distribution  Dates, the  greater of any  original issue  discount
(disregarding the rate  in the first period) and any interest foregone during
the  first period  is treated as  the amount  by which the  stated redemption
price at maturity of the Certificate exceeds its issue price for  purposes of
the de minimis  rule described below.   The OID Regulations suggest  that all
interest on a long first period REMIC Regular Certificate that is issued with
non-de minimis OID, as determined  under the foregoing rule, will  be treated
as OID.  Where the interval between the issue date and the first Distribution
Date on  a REMIC  Regular Certificate  is shorter  than the  interval between
subsequent Distribution Dates, interest due on the first Distribution Date in
excess  of the amount that accrued during the  first period would be added to
the  Certificates  stated  redemption  price  at  maturity.    REMIC  Regular
Certificateholders  should consult their  own tax  advisors to  determine the
issue  price and  stated  redemption price  at maturity  of  a REMIC  Regular
Certificate.

    Under the de  minimis rule, OID  on a REMIC  Regular Certificate will  be
considered to be zero if such OID is less than 0.25% of the stated redemption
price at maturity of the REMIC Regular Certificate multiplied by the weighted
average maturity  of the REMIC  Regular Certificate.   For this  purpose, the
weighted average maturity of the REMIC Regular Certificate is computed as the
sum of the amounts determined by multiplying the number of full  years (i.e.,
rounding down partial years)  from the issue date until  each distribution in
reduction of stated redemption price at maturity is scheduled to be made by a
fraction, the numerator of which is  the amount of each distribution included
in the stated redemption  price at maturity of the REMIC  Regular Certificate
and the denominator  of which is the  stated redemption price at  maturity of
the REMIC Regular  Certificate.  Although currently unclear,  it appears that
the schedule  of such distributions  should be determined in  accordance with
the  Prepayment Assumption.   The  Prepayment  Assumption with  respect to  a
Series  of REMIC  Regular  Certificates  will be  set  forth  in the  related
Prospectus Supplement.  Holders generally must report de minimis OID pro rata
as principal payments are received, and  such income will be capital gain  if
the REMIC  Regular Certificate is held as a  capital asset.  However, accrual
method holders  may elect  to accrue  all de minimis  OID as  well as  market
discount under a constant interest method.

    The Prospectus  Supplement with respect  to a Trust Fund  may provide for
certain  REMIC Regular  Certificates  to be  issued  at prices  significantly
exceeding  their principal amounts  or based  on notional  principal balances
(the "Super-Premium Certificates").   The income tax treatment  of such REMIC
Regular Certificates  is not  entirely certain.    For information  reporting
purposes, the  Trust  Fund intends  to  take  the position  that  the  stated
redemption price at maturity of such REMIC Regular Certificates is the sum of
all payments to be  made on such REMIC Regular  Certificates determined under
the  Prepayment  Assumption,   with  the  result  that  such   REMIC  Regular
Certificates would be  issued with OID.   The calculation  of income in  this
manner could result in negative  original issue discount (which delays future
accruals of OID rather than being immediately deductible) when prepayments on
the Mortgage  Assets exceed those estimated under  the Prepayment Assumption.
The  IRS might  contend,  however,  that  certain  contingent  payment  rules
contained  in final  regulations issued  on June  11, 1996,  with  respect to
original issue  discount, should apply  to such Certificates.   Although such
rules are not applicable to  instruments governed by Code Section 1272(a)(6),
they represent the only guidance regarding the current views of the  IRS with
respect to contingent payment instruments.  In the alternative, the IRS could
assert that  the stated  redemption price at  maturity of such  REMIC Regular
Certificates  should be  limited to  their principal  amount (subject  to the
discussion below under "--Accrued Interest Certificates"), so that such REMIC
Regular Certificates would  be considered for federal income  tax purposes to
be issued  at a  premium.   If such  a position  were to  prevail, the  rules
described below under "--Taxation  of Owners of REMIC  Regular Certificates--
Premium" would  apply.   It is unclear  when a  loss may  be claimed for  any
unrecovered basis  for a Super-Premium  Certificate.   It is possible  that a
holder  of  a  Super-Premium  Certificate may  only  claim  a  loss  when its
remaining basis  exceeds the maximum  amount of future payments,  assuming no
further prepayments  or when the  final payment is  received with respect  to
such Super-Premium Certificate.

    Under  the  REMIC Regulations,  if the  issue  price of  a  REMIC Regular
Certificate (other than REMIC Regular Certificate based on a notional amount)
does not exceed 125% of its actual principal amount, the interest rate is not
considered  disproportionately  high.     Accordingly,  such  REMIC   Regular
Certificate generally should  not be treated  as a Super-Premium  Certificate
and the rules  described below under "--REMIC  Regular Certificates--Premium"
should  apply.    However,  it is  possible  that  holders  of  REMIC Regular
Certificates issued at  a premium, even  if the premium  is less than 25%  of
such Certificate's actual principal balance, will be required to amortize the
premium under an original issue discount method or contingent interest method
even though  no election  under Code  Section 171  is made  to amortize  such
premium.

    Generally, a  REMIC  Regular  Certificateholder  must  include  in  gross
income the "daily  portions," as determined below, of the OID that accrues on
a REMIC Regular Certificate  for each day a Certificateholder holds the REMIC
Regular   Certificate,  including  the   purchase  date  but   excluding  the
disposition  date.  In  the case  of an  original holder  of a  REMIC Regular
Certificate,  a calculation  will be  made  of the  portion of  the  OID that
accrues  during each successive period ("an accrual period") that ends on the
day  in  the  calendar  year  corresponding to  a  Distribution  Date  (or if
Distribution  Dates  are  on the  first  day  or first  business  day  of the
immediately preceding month, interest  may be treated as payable on  the last
day of the  immediately preceding month) and begins on the  day after the end
of the immediately preceding accrual period (or on the issue date in the case
of the  first accrual period).  This  will be done, in the  case of each full
accrual period, by (i) adding (a) the present value at the end of the accrual
period  (determined by  using  as a  discount factor  the  original yield  to
maturity of the REMIC Regular Certificates as calculated under the Prepayment
Assumption) of all  remaining payments to  be received on  the REMIC  Regular
Certificates under the Prepayment Assumption and (b) any payments included in
the stated redemption price at  maturity received during such accrual period,
and (ii) subtracting  from that total the  adjusted issue price of  the REMIC
Regular Certificates at the  beginning of such accrual period.   The adjusted
issue price of  a REMIC  Regular Certificate  at the beginning  of the  first
accrual period  is  its issue  price; the  adjusted issue  price  of a  REMIC
Regular Certificate  at the beginning of  a subsequent accrual  period is the
adjusted issue  price at the  beginning of the immediately  preceding accrual
period plus the amount of OID allocable to that accrual period and reduced by
the amount  of any payment other than a  payment of qualified stated interest
made at the end of or during that accrual period.  The  OID accrued during an
accrual  period will then be divided  by the number of  days in the period to
determine the daily portion  of OID for each day in the  accrual period.  The
calculation of OID under the method described above will cause the accrual of
OID  to either increase or decrease (but never below zero) in a given accrual
period to  reflect the fact  that prepayments are occurring  faster or slower
than  under the Prepayment  Assumption.  With  respect to an  initial accrual
period shorter than a full accrual  period, the daily portions of OID may  be
determined  according to  an  appropriate  allocation  under  any  reasonable
method.

    A subsequent  purchaser of  a REMIC Regular  Certificate issued with  OID
who purchases the REMIC Regular Certificate at a cost less than the remaining
stated redemption price at maturity will also be required to include in gross
income  the  sum  of  the  daily  portions  of  OID  on  that  REMIC  Regular
Certificate.  In computing the daily portions of OID for such a purchaser (as
well as  an  initial purchaser  that purchases  at a  price  higher than  the
adjusted issue price but less than the stated redemption price at  maturity),
however, the daily portion  is reduced by the amount that  would be the daily
portion for such  day (computed in accordance with the rules set forth above)
multiplied by a  fraction, the numerator of  which is the amount, if  any, by
which the  price  paid by  such  holder for  that REMIC  Regular  Certificate
exceeds  the following  amount:  (a) the  sum  of the  issue  price plus  the
aggregate amount  of OID that would have been  includible in the gross income
of  an  original REMIC  Regular  Certificateholder (who  purchased  the REMIC
Regular Certificate at its issue price), less (b) any prior payments included
in the  stated redemption price at maturity, and  the denominator of which is
the sum of the daily portions for that REMIC Regular Certificate for all days
beginning on the date after the purchase date and ending on the maturity date
computed under the Prepayment Assumption.   A holder who pays  an acquisition
premium  instead  may elect  to  accrue OID  by  treating the  purchase  as a
purchase at original issue.

    Variable  Rate REMIC  Regular Certificates.   REMIC  Regular Certificates
may provide  for interest  based on  a variable  rate.  Interest  based on  a
variable  rate will constitute  qualified stated interest  and not contingent
interest if, generally, (i) such interest is unconditionally payable at least
annually, (ii)  the issue price  of the debt  instrument does not  exceed the
total  noncontingent principal  payments and  (iii)  interest is  based on  a
"qualified floating  rate," an  "objective rate," a  combination of  a single
fixed rate and one or more "qualified floating rates," one "qualified inverse
floating rate,"  or a combination of "qualified floating  rates " that do not
operate  in  a manner  that  significantly  accelerates  or  defers  interest
payments on such REMIC Regular Certificate.

    The amount of OID with  respect to a REMIC Regular Certificate  bearing a
variable rate of interest will accrue in the manner described above under "--
Original Issue  Discount and  Premium" by assuming  generally that  the index
used for  the variable  rate will  remain fixed  throughout the  term of  the
Certificate.  Appropriate adjustments are made for the actual variable rate.

    Although unclear at  present, the Depositor intends to treat  interest on
a REMIC Regular  Certificate that is a  weighted average of the  net interest
rates on  Mortgage Loans  as qualified stated  interest.   In such  case, the
weighted  average rate used  to compute the initial  pass-through rate on the
REMIC Regular Certificates will be deemed  to be the index in effect  through
the life of  the REMIC Regular Certificates.   It is possible,  however, that
the IRS may treat  some or all of the interest on  REMIC Regular Certificates
with  a  weighted  average  rate  as taxable  under  the  rules  relating  to
obligations providing for contingent payments.  Such treatment may effect the
timing of income accruals on such REMIC Regular Certificates.

    Election to  Treat All Interest  as OID.   The  OID Regulations permit  a
Certificateholder  to elect  to accrue all  interest, discount  (including de
minimis market discount or original issue  discount) and premium in income as
interest, based on a constant yield  method.  If such an election were  to be
made with respect  to a REMIC  Regular Certificate with market  discount, the
Certificateholder  would be  deemed to  have made an  election to  include in
income currently market  discount with respect to all  other debt instruments
having  market discount that such  Certificateholder acquires during the year
of the  election or  thereafter.  Similarly,  a Certificateholder  that makes
this election for a Certificate that is  acquired at a premium will be deemed
to have  made an election to amortize  bond premium with respect  to all debt
instruments  having amortizable bond premium that such Certificateholder owns
or  acquires.   See "--  REMIC  Regular Certificates--Premium"  herein.   The
election to accrue interest, discount and  premium on a constant yield method
with respect to a Certificate is irrevocable.

    Market Discount.  A purchaser of a REMIC Regular  Certificate may also be
subject to the market discount provisions of Code Sections 1276 through 1278.
Under these provisions and the  OID Regulations, "market discount" equals the
excess,  if any,  of (i)  the  REMIC Regular  Certificate's stated  principal
amount or, in the case of a REMIC Regular  Certificate with OID, the adjusted
issue price (determined for  this purpose as  if the purchaser had  purchased
such REMIC Regular Certificate from  an original holder) over (ii)  the price
for   such  REMIC   Regular   Certificate   paid  by   the   purchaser.     A
Certificateholder  that purchases  a REMIC  Regular  Certificate at  a market
discount will recognize income upon receipt of each distribution representing
amounts included in  such certificate's stated redemption  price at maturity.
In particular, under Section 1276 of the Code such a holder generally will be
required to allocate each such  distribution first to accrued market discount
not previously included  in income, and to recognize ordinary  income to that
extent.  A Certificateholder  may elect to include market discount  in income
currently as  it accrues  rather than  including it  on a  deferred basis  in
accordance  with the  foregoing.  If  made, such  election will apply  to all
market  discount bonds  acquired by  such Certificateholder  on or  after the
first day of the first taxable year to which such election applies.  

    Market  discount with  respect to  a  REMIC Regular  Certificate will  be
considered  to  be  zero  if  the  amount  allocable  to  the  REMIC  Regular
Certificate is  less than  0.25% of such  REMIC Regular  Certificate's stated
redemption price at maturity multiplied  by such REMIC Regular  Certificate's
weighted average  maturity remaining after the  date of purchase.   If market
discount on a REMIC Regular Certificate  is considered to be zero under  this
rule, the actual amount of market discount must be allocated to the remaining
principal payments on  the REMIC Regular Certificate, and  gain equal to such
allocated amount will be recognized when the corresponding  principal payment
is made.   Treasury regulations  implementing the market discount  rules have
not  yet been  issued;  therefore,  investors should  consult  their own  tax
advisors regarding  the application  of these rules  and the  advisability of
making any of the elections allowed under Code Sections 1276 through 1278.

    The Code  provides  that  any  principal  payment  (whether  a  scheduled
payment or a prepayment) or any gain on disposition of a market discount bond
acquired by the taxpayer after October 22, 1986, shall be treated as ordinary
income to the  extent that it does not exceed the  accrued market discount at
the time of such payment.  The amount of accrued market discount for purposes
of  determining  the  tax  treatment  of  subsequent  principal  payments  or
dispositions of  the market discount bond  is to be reduced by  the amount so
treated as ordinary income.

    The  Code also  grants  authority to  the  Treasury Department  to  issue
regulations providing for the computation  of accrued market discount on debt
instruments, the principal  of which is payable in more than one installment.
Until such time as regulations are issued by the Treasury, rules described in
the Legislative  History will  apply.   Under those  rules, the  holder of  a
market discount bond may elect to accrue  market discount either on the basis
of a  constant interest  method rate  or according  to one  of the  following
methods.   For  REMIC Regular  Certificates issued  with  OID, the  amount of
market discount  that accrues during a period is  equal to the product of (i)
the total  remaining market discount  and (ii)  a fraction, the  numerator of
which is the OID accruing  during the period and the denominator of  which is
the total remaining  OID at the beginning  of the period.   For REMIC Regular
Certificates issued without  OID, the amount of market  discount that accrues
during a  period is equal to  the product of  (a) the total  remaining market
discount and (b) a fraction, the  numerator of which is the amount  of stated
interest paid during the accrual period  and the denominator of which is  the
total amount of stated interest remaining to  be paid at the beginning of the
period.  For purposes  of calculating market discount under any  of the above
methods in the case of  instruments (such as the REMIC  Regular Certificates)
that provide for payments that may be accelerated by reason of prepayments of
other obligations securing  such instruments, the same  Prepayment Assumption
applicable to calculating the accrual of OID will apply.

    A  holder who acquired a  REMIC Regular Certificate  at a market discount
also may be  required to defer a  portion of its interest  deductions for the
taxable  year  attributable  to  any indebtedness  incurred  or  continued to
purchase or carry such Certificate purchased with market discount.  For these
purposes, the de minimis rule referred  to above applies.  Any such  deferred
interest expense  would not  exceed the market  discount that  accrues during
such taxable year and  is, in general, allowed as a  deduction not later than
the  year in  which such market  discount is  includible in income.   If such
holder elects to include market discount in income currently as it accrues on
all market discount instruments acquired by such holder  in that taxable year
or thereafter, the interest deferral rule described above will not apply.

    Premium.  A purchaser  of a REMIC Regular Certificate  that purchases the
REMIC Regular Certificate  at a cost (not including  accrued qualified stated
interest) greater than its remaining stated redemption price at maturity will
be considered to  have purchased the REMIC  Regular Certificate at a  premium
and may  elect to  amortize such premium  under a constant  yield method.   A
Certificateholder that makes this election for a Certificate that is acquired
at a premium will be deemed to have made an election to amortize bond premium
with respect  to all  debt instruments having  amortizable bond  premium that
such   Certificateholder  acquires  during  the  year   of  the  election  or
thereafter.  It is not clear whether the Prepayment Assumption would be taken
into account in  determining the life  of the REMIC  Regular Certificate  for
this  purpose.  However, the  Legislative History states  that the same rules
that  apply to  accrual of  market  discount (which  rules require  use  of a
Prepayment  Assumption  in accruing  market  discount with  respect  to REMIC
Regular Certificates  without regard to  whether such Certificates  have OID)
will also apply in amortizing bond premium under Code Section  171.  The Code
provides that amortizable  bond premium will be allocated  among the interest
payments on such  REMIC Regular Certificates and will be applied as an offset
against such interest  payment.  On June 27,  1996, the IRS published  in the
Federal Register proposed  regulations on the  amortization of bond  premium.
The foregoing discussion is based in  part on such proposed regulations.   On
December 30, 1997,  the IRS issued the Amortizable  Bond Premium Regulations,
which generally are  effective for bonds acquired  on or after March  2, 1998
or,  for holders  making an  election to  amortize bond premium  as described
above for  the taxable  year that includes  March 2,  1998 or  any subsequent
taxable  year, will  apply to bonds  held on  or after  the first day  of the
taxable year in which the election is made.  Neither the proposed regulations
nor  the final  regulations,  by  their express  terms,  apply to  prepayable
securities  described in  Section 1272(a)(6) of  the Code, such  as the REMIC
Regular Certificates.   Certificateholders should consult their  tax advisors
regarding the  possibility of making  an election  to amortize any  such bond
premium.

    Deferred Interest.   Certain  classes of  REMIC Regular Certificates  may
provide  for the accrual of Deferred Interest with respect to one or more ARM
Loans.  Any Deferred  Interest that accrues with respect to  a class of REMIC
Regular  Certificates  will   constitute  income  to  the  holders   of  such
Certificates prior  to the time  distributions of cash  with respect  to such
Deferred Interest  are  made.   It  is unclear,  under  the OID  Regulations,
whether any  of the interest  on such Certificates will  constitute qualified
stated interest  or whether all or a portion  of the interest payable on such
Certificates must be  included in the stated redemption price  at maturity of
the  Certificates and  accounted  for  as OID  (which  could accelerate  such
inclusion).   Interest  on REMIC Regular  Certificates must  in any  event be
accounted for  under an accrual  method by the  holders of such  Certificates
and,  therefore, applying  the latter  analysis may  result only in  a slight
difference in the timing of the inclusion in income of interest on such REMIC
Regular Certificates.

    Effects of Defaults  and Delinquencies.   Certain Series of  Certificates
may contain  one or  more classes  of Subordinated Certificates,  and in  the
event there  are defaults  or delinquencies on  the Mortgage  Assets, amounts
that  would  otherwise be  distributed on  the Subordinated  Certificates may
instead   be  distributed   on  the   Senior   Certificates.     Subordinated
Certificateholders  nevertheless will  be  required  to  report  income  with
respect to such Certificates under an accrual method without giving effect to
delays  and reductions  in distributions  on  such Subordinated  Certificates
attributable to defaults and delinquencies  on the Mortgage Assets, except to
the extent that  it can be established  that such amounts are  uncollectible.
As   a  result,   the   amount   of  income   reported   by  a   Subordinated
Certificateholder in any period could significantly exceed the amount of cash
distributed to such  holder in that  period.  The  holder will eventually  be
allowed a loss  (or will be allowed to  report a lesser amount  of income) to
the extent  that the  aggregate amount of  distributions on  the Subordinated
Certificate is  reduced  as a  result of  defaults and  delinquencies on  the
Mortgage  Assets.  Timing and characterization of such losses is discussed in
"--REMIC Regular Certificates--Treatment of Realized Losses" below.

    Sale, Exchange or  Redemption.  If a  REMIC Regular Certificate is  sold,
exchanged, redeemed or retired, the seller will recognize gain  or loss equal
to  the  difference  between  the  amount realized  on  the  sale,  exchange,
redemption,  or retirement  and  the  seller's adjusted  basis  in the  REMIC
Regular Certificate.  Such  adjusted basis generally will  equal the cost  of
the REMIC Regular  Certificate to the seller, increased by any OID and market
discount  included in the  seller's gross  income with  respect to  the REMIC
Regular Certificate, and reduced (but not below zero) by payments included in
the stated redemption price at maturity previously received by the seller and
by any amortized premium.  Similarly, a holder who receives a payment that is
part  of  the  stated  redemption  price  at  maturity  of  a  REMIC  Regular
Certificate will recognize gain equal to the excess, if any, of the amount of
the  payment  over   the  holder's  adjusted  basis  in   the  REMIC  Regular
Certificate.  A REMIC Regular  Certificateholder who receives a final payment
that  is  less  than  the  holder's  adjusted  basis  in  the  REMIC  Regular
Certificate  will generally  recognize a  loss.   Except as  provided  in the
following paragraph and as provided under "--Market Discount" above, any such
gain or loss will be  capital gain or loss,  provided that the REMIC  Regular
Certificate  is held  as  a  "capital asset"  (generally,  property held  for
investment) within the meaning of Code Section 1221.

    Gain from  the sale or other  disposition of a REMIC  Regular Certificate
that might otherwise  be capital gain will  be treated as ordinary  income to
the extent that  such gain does  not exceed  the excess, if  any, of (i)  the
amount that would  have been includible in such  holder's income with respect
to the REMIC Regular  Certificate had income accrued thereon at  a rate equal
to 110% of  the AFR as defined  in Code Section 1274(d) determined  as of the
date of  purchase of  such REMIC  Regular Certificate,  over (ii)  the amount
actually includible in  such holder's income.   Gain from  the sale or  other
disposition of  a REMIC  Regular Certificate that  might otherwise  be capita
gain will  be treated as ordinary income if  the REMIC Regular Certificate is
held  as  part of  a  "conversion  transaction" as  defined  in Code  section
1258(c), up to  the amount of interest  that would have accrued  on the REMIC
Regular Certificateholder's net  investment in the conversion  transaction at
120% of the appropriate applicable federal rate under Code section 1274(d) in
effect at the time the taxpayer entered into the transaction minus any amount
previously treated as  ordinary income with respect to  any prior disposition
of  property that  was held  as part  of such  transaction, or  if  the REMIC
Regular  Certificate is  held as  part of  a straddle.   Potential  investors
should  consult  their tax  advisors  with  respect  to tax  consequences  of
ownership and disposition  of an investment in REMIC  Regular Certificates in
their particular circumstances.

    The  Certificates will be "evidences of  indebtedness" within the meaning
of Code Section 582(c)(1), so that gain or loss recognized from the sale of a
REMIC  Regular Certificate by  a bank or  a thrift institution  to which such
section applies will be ordinary income or loss.

    The  REMIC   Regular  Certificate  information  reports  will  include  a
statement of the adjusted issue price of the REMIC Regular Certificate at the
beginning  of each accrual  period.   In addition,  the reports  will include
information necessary to compute the accrual of any market discount  that may
arise upon  secondary trading of  REMIC Regular Certificates.   Because exact
computation  of the  accrual of  market discount  on a constant  yield method
would require information  relating to the holder's purchase  price which the
REMIC may not have, it appears that the information reports will only require
information  pertaining to the  appropriate proportionate method  of accruing
market discount.

    The Act reduces  the maximum rates on long-term capital  gains recognized
on capital assets held by individual  taxpayers for more than eighteen months
as of the date of disposition (and would  further reduce the maximum rates on
such gains  in the year 2001 and  thereafter for certain individual taxpayers
who  meet specified conditions).   The capital gains  rate for capital assets
held by individual  taxpayers for more than  twelve months but not  more than
eighteen months  was not changed  by the Act.   The  Act does not  change the
capital gains rates for corporations.   Prospective investors should  consult
their own tax advisors concerning these tax law changes.

    Accrued  Interest   Certificates.     Certain   of   the  REMIC   Regular
Certificates  ("Payment  Lag  Certificates")  may  provide  for  payments  of
interest  based  on  a  period  that  corresponds  to  the  interval  between
Distribution Dates  but that ends prior to each  such Distribution Date.  The
period between the Closing Date for Payment Lag Certificates and  their first
Distribution Date may or may not exceed such interval.  Purchasers of Payment
Lag Certificates for which the period between the Closing Date and  the first
Distribution Date  does not exceed such  interval could pay upon  purchase of
the  REMIC Regular  Certificates accrued  interest in  excess of  the accrued
interest  that would be  paid if the  interest paid on  the Distribution Date
were interest  accrued from  Distribution Date to  Distribution Date.   If  a
portion  of the  initial purchase  price of  a  REMIC Regular  Certificate is
allocable to interest that has accrued prior to the issue date ("pre-issuance
accrued interest") and  the REMIC Regular Certificate provides  for a payment
of stated interest on the first  payment date (and the first payment  date is
within one year of the issue  date) that equals or exceeds the amount  of the
pre-issuance accrued  interest, then  the REMIC  Regular Certificates'  issue
price may be computed by subtracting from the issue price the  amount of pre-
issuance accrued  interest, rather  than as  an amount  payable on  the REMIC
Regular Certificate.   However, it is unclear  under this method how  the OID
Regulations treat  interest on Payment  Lag Certificates.  Therefore,  in the
case of a Payment Lag Certificate, the Trust Fund intends to  include accrued
interest in the  issue price and report  interest payments made on  the first
Distribution Date as interest to  the extent such payments represent interest
for the  number of days that the Certificateholder  has held such Payment Lag
Certificate during the first accrual period.

    Investors should consult their own tax  advisors concerning the treatment
for federal income tax purposes of Payment Lag Certificates.

    Non-Interest   Expenses  of   the  REMIC.     Under   temporary  Treasury
regulations,  if the  REMIC  is considered  to be  a "single-class  REMIC," a
portion  of  the  REMIC's servicing,  administrative  and  other non-interest
expenses  will  be  allocated  as a  separate  item  to  those REMIC  Regular
Certificateholders    that    are   "pass-through    interest    holders."   
Certificateholders  that  are  pass-through interest  holders  should consult
their own  tax advisors about the  impact of these rules on  an investment in
the REMIC Regular Certificates.   See "Pass-Through of  Non-Interest Expenses
of  the REMIC"  under "Taxation  of  Owners of  REMIC Residual  Certificates"
below.

    Treatment of  Realized Losses.  Although  not entirely clear,  it appears
that holders  of REMIC Regular  Certificates that are corporations  should in
general be allowed  to deduct as an  ordinary loss any loss  sustained during
the  taxable year  on account  of any  such Certificates  becoming  wholly or
partially worthless, and  that, in general, holders of  Certificates that are
not corporations should be allowed to deduct as a short-term capital loss any
loss sustained during  the taxable year  on account of any  such Certificates
becoming wholly worthless.   Although the matter is not  entirely clear, non-
corporate holders of Certificates may be allowed a bad debt deduction at such
time that the principal balance of any such Certificate is reduced to reflect
realized losses resulting from any  liquidated Mortgage Assets.  The Internal
Revenue Service,  however, could take the position that non-corporate holders
will be allowed  a bad debt deduction  to reflect realized losses  only after
all Mortgage  Assets remaining in the related Trust Fund have been liquidated
or  the Certificates  of  the  related Series  have  been otherwise  retired.
Potential  investors and  holders of  the Certificates  are urged  to consult
their own tax advisors regarding the appropriate timing, amount and character
of any  loss sustained with respect to  such Certificates, including any loss
resulting from the failure to recover previously accrued interest or discount
income.  Special  loss rules are applicable to banks and thrift institutions,
including rules regarding reserves for bad debts.  Such taxpayers are advised
to  consult  their  tax  advisors   regarding  the  treatment  of  losses  on
Certificates.

    Non-U.S.  Persons.    Generally,  payments  of  interest  (including  any
payment with respect to  accrued OID) on the REMIC Regular  Certificates to a
REMIC Regular Certificateholder who is not  a U.S. Person and is not  engaged
in  a trade  or business  within the  United States  will not  be subject  to
federal withholding tax if (i)  such REMIC Regular Certificateholder does not
actually  or constructively  own 10  percent or more  of the  combined voting
power of  all  classes of  equity  in the  issuer;  (ii) such  REMIC  Regular
Certificateholder is not a controlled foreign corporation (within the meaning
of  Code Section  957) related to  the issuer;  and (iii) such  REMIC Regular
Certificateholder   complies   with   certain   identification   requirements
(including   delivery   of  a   statement,  signed   by  the   REMIC  Regular
Certificateholder  under penalties  of perjury,  certifying  that such  REMIC
Regular  Certificateholder is  a foreign  person and  providing the  name and
address  of  such REMIC  Regular  Certificateholder).    If a  REMIC  Regular
Certificateholder is not  exempt from withholding, distributions  of interest
to such holder,  including distributions in  respect of accrued  OID, may  be
subject to a 30%  withholding tax, subject to reduction  under any applicable
tax treaty.   If the interest on  a REMIC Regular Certificate  is effectively
connected with the conduct  by a holder that is a non-U.S.  Person of a trade
or business in the United States, then such holder will not be subject to the
30% withholding  tax on gross  income therefrom but  will be subject  to U.S.
income tax  at regular graduated rates on its  net income and, if such holder
is a corporation, may be subject to U.S. branch profits tax as well.

    Further, a REMIC  Regular Certificate will not be included  in the estate
of a non-resident alien  individual and will not be subject  to United States
estate  taxes.    However,  Certificateholders  who  are  non-resident  alien
individuals should consult their tax advisors concerning this question.

    REMIC Regular Certificateholders  who are  not U.S.  Persons and  persons
related to such  holders should not acquire any  REMIC Residual Certificates,
and   holders   of   REMIC  Residual   Certificates   (the   "REMIC  Residual
Certificateholder") and persons related  to REMIC Residual Certificateholders
should  not acquire any  REMIC Regular Certificates  without consulting their
tax advisors as  to the possible adverse  tax consequences of  doing so.   In
addition,  the IRS  may  assert that  non-U.S Persons  that  own directly  or
indirectly,  a  greater than  10%  interest  in  any Mortgagor,  and  foreign
corporations  that  are "controlled  foreign corporations"  as to  the United
States of which  such a Mortgagor is a "United States shareholder" within the
meaning  of  Section 951(b)  of  the  Code,  are  subject  to  United  States
withholding tax  on interest distributed  to them  to the extent  of interest
concurrently paid by the related Mortgagor.

    Information Reporting and  Backup Withholding.  The  Master Servicer will
furnish or  make available, within  a reasonable time  after the end  of each
calendar year, to each  person who was a  REMIC Regular Certificateholder  at
any time during  such year, such  information as may  be deemed necessary  or
desirable  to  assist  REMIC Regular  Certificateholders  in  preparing their
federal income tax  returns, or to  enable holders to  make such  information
available to  beneficial owners  or financial  intermediaries that hold  such
REMIC  Regular Certificates  on behalf  of beneficial  owners.  If  a holder,
beneficial owner, financial  intermediary or other recipient of  a payment on
behalf  of  a   beneficial  owner  fails  to  supply   a  certified  taxpayer
identification number  or if  the Secretary of  the Treasury  determines that
such person has not reported all interest and dividend income required  to be
shown  on its  federal  income  tax return,  31%  backup withholding  may  be
required  with  respect  to any  payments  with  respect to  any  payments to
registered owners  who are not  "exempt recipients."   In addition,  upon the
sale of a REMIC Regular Certificate to (or through) a broker, the broker must
withhold 31%  of the  entire  purchase price,  unless either  (i) the  broker
determines that  the seller is  a corporation or  other exempt recipient,  or
(ii)  the  seller provides,  in  the  required  manner,  certain  identifying
information and, in the case of a non-U.S. Person, certifies that such seller
is a Non-U.S. Person,  and certain other  conditions are met.   Such as  sale
must also be reported  by the broker to the IRS, unless either (a) the broker
determines that the seller is an exempt recipient or (b) the seller certifies
its  non-U.S.  Person   status  (and  certain  other   conditions  are  met).
Certification of the registered owner's non-U.S. Person status normally would
be made on IRS Form W-8 under penalties of perjury, although in certain cases
it may  be  possible to  submit  other  documentary evidence.    Any  amounts
deducted and withheld from a distribution to  a recipient would be allowed as
a credit against such recipient's federal income tax liability.

    On October 6,  1997, the Treasury Department issued the  New Regulations,
which make certain modifications  to the withholding, backup withholding  and
information reporting rules described above.   The New Regulations attempt to
unify  certification  requirements and  modify reliance  standards.   The New
Regulations will generally be effective  for payments made after December 31,
1998, subject to  certain transition rules.  Prospective  investors are urged
to consult their own tax advisors regarding the New Regulations.

B.  TAXATION OF OWNERS OF REMIC RESIDUAL CERTIFICATES

    Allocation  of   the  Income   of  the  REMIC   to  the  REMIC   Residual
Certificates.   The REMIC  will not be  subject to federal  income tax except
with  respect  to  income  from  prohibited transactions  and  certain  other
transactions.    See  "--Prohibited  Transactions  and  Other  Taxes"  below.
Instead, each original holder of a REMIC Residual Certificate will report  on
its federal income tax  return, as ordinary income, its share  of the taxable
income of the REMIC for each day during the taxable year on which such holder
owns any REMIC  Residual Certificates.  The  taxable income of the  REMIC for
each day will be determined by allocating the taxable income of the REMIC for
each calendar quarter ratably  to each day in  the quarter.  Such a  holder's
share of the  taxable income of the REMIC  for each day will be  based on the
portion of the outstanding REMIC  Residual Certificates that such holder owns
on  that day.   The taxable income of  the REMIC will  be determined under an
accrual  method  and  will  be  taxable  to the  holders  of  REMIC  Residual
Certificates without regard to the timing or amounts of cash distributions by
the REMIC.  Ordinary income derived from REMIC Residual Certificates will  be
"portfolio income" for purposes of  the taxation of taxpayers subject  to the
limitations on the deductibility of "passive losses." As residual  interests,
the  REMIC Residual  Certificates will  be  subject to  tax rules,  described
below,  that  differ  from  those that  would  apply  if  the  REMIC Residual
Certificates were treated for federal income tax purposes as direct ownership
interests in the Certificates or as debt instruments issued by the REMIC.

    A REMIC  Residual Certificateholder  may be required  to include  taxable
income from the REMIC Residual Certificate in excess of the cash distributed.
For example, a  structure where principal distributions are  made serially on
regular interests (that is, a fast-pay, slow-pay structure) may generate such
a mismatching of  income and cash distributions (that  is, "phantom income").
This mismatching may be caused by the use of certain required  tax accounting
methods by  the REMIC, variations  in the  prepayment rate of  the underlying
Mortgage Assets and certain other factors.  Depending upon the structure of a
particular transaction, the  aforementioned factors may significantly  reduce
the after-tax  yield of  a REMIC  Residual  Certificate to  a REMIC  Residual
Certificateholder or  cause the REMIC  Residual Certificate to  have negative
"value."   Investors  should consult  their own  tax advisors  concerning the
federal income tax treatment  of a REMIC Residual Certificate and  the impact
of such tax treatment on the after-tax yield of a REMIC Residual Certificate.

    A  subsequent REMIC  Residual Certificateholder  also will  report on its
federal  income tax return amounts representing a  daily share of the taxable
income of the  REMIC for each day that such  REMIC Residual Certificateholder
owns such  REMIC Residual Certificate.   Those daily amounts  generally would
equal  the amounts  that would  have been reported  for the  same days  by an
original  REMIC  Residual   Certificateholder,  as  described  above.     The
Legislative History indicates  that certain adjustments may be appropriate to
reduce (or increase)  the income of a  subsequent holder of a  REMIC Residual
Certificate that purchased such REMIC Residual Certificate at a price greater
than (or less than) the adjusted basis such REMIC  Residual Certificate would
have  in the  hands of  an  original REMIC  Residual Certificateholder.   See
"--Sale or Exchange of REMIC Residual Certificates" below.  It is  not clear,
however, whether such adjustments  will in fact be permitted or required and,
if so,  how they would be made.  The REMIC Regulations do not provide for any
such adjustments.

    Taxable Income  of the  REMIC Attributable  to Residual  Interests.   The
taxable income of the REMIC will reflect a netting of (i) the income from the
Mortgage Assets and the REMIC's other  assets and (ii) the deductions allowed
to  the REMIC  for interest and  OID on  the REMIC Regular  Certificates and,
except  as described  above  under  "--Taxation of  Owners  of REMIC  Regular
Certificates--Non-Interest Expenses  of the  REMIC," other  expenses.   REMIC
taxable income  is generally  determined in  the same manner  as the  taxable
income  of an individual using the accrual  method of accounting, except that
(i)  the  limitations on  deductibility  of investment  interest  expense and
expenses for the production of income  do not apply, (ii) all bad  loans will
be  deductible as  business  bad  debts,  and (iii)  the  limitation  on  the
deductibility of  interest and  expenses  related to  tax-exempt income  will
apply.  The  REMIC's gross income includes interest,  original issue discount
income, and market discount income, if any, on the Mortgage Loans, reduced by
amortization  of  any   premium  on  the  Mortgage  Loans,   plus  income  on
reinvestment  of cash  flows and  reserve  assets, plus  any cancellation  of
indebtedness income upon  allocation of realized losses to  the REMIC Regular
Certificates.   Note that the  timing of cancellation of  indebtedness income
recognized by REMIC  Residual Certificateholders resulting from  defaults and
delinquencies on Mortgage Assets may differ from the time of the  actual loss
on the Mortgage Asset.  The REMIC's deductions  include interest and original
issue discount expense  on the REMIC Regular Certificates,  servicing fees on
the Mortgage Loans,  other administrative expenses of the  REMIC and realized
losses  on  the  Mortgage  Loans.     The  requirement  that  REMIC  Residual
Certificateholders report their pro rata share  of taxable income or net loss
of the  REMIC will continue until there  are no Certificates of  any class of
the related Series outstanding.

    For purposes  of determining its taxable  income, the REMIC  will have an
initial aggregate  tax basis  in its  assets equal  to the  sum of the  issue
prices of the REMIC Regular  Certificates and the REMIC Residual Certificates
(or,  if a  class of  Certificates  is not  sold initially,  its  fair market
value).  Such aggregate basis will be allocated among the Mortgage Assets and
other assets  of the  REMIC in  proportion  to their  respective fair  market
value.   A Mortgage Asset will be  deemed to have been acquired with discount
or  premium to the  extent that  the REMIC's  basis therein  is less  than or
greater than its principal balance, respectively.  Any such discount (whether
market discount  or OID) will be includible in the  income of the REMIC as it
accrues, in advance of receipt of the cash attributable to such income, under
a method similar  to the method described above for accruing OID on the REMIC
Regular Certificates.  The REMIC may elect under Code Section 171 to amortize
any premium on  the Mortgage Assets.  Premium on any  Mortgage Asset to which
such election applies would be amortized  under a constant yield method.   It
is  not clear whether the yield  of a Mortgage Asset  would be calculated for
this  purpose based on scheduled payments or taking account of the Prepayment
Assumption.  Additionally, such an election would not apply to the yield with
respect to any underlying mortgage loan originated on or before September 27,
1985.    Instead, premium  with  respect to  such  a mortgage  loan  would be
allocated among the principal payments thereon and would be deductible by the
REMIC as those payments become due.

    The REMIC  will be allowed a deduction for  interest and OID on the REMIC
Regular  Certificates.   The amount  and  method of  accrual of  OID  will be
calculated for  this  purpose in  the  same manner  as described  above  with
respect  to REMIC  Regular Certificates except  that the  0.25% per  annum de
minimis  rule and adjustments  for subsequent holders  described therein will
not apply.

    A REMIC Residual Certificateholder will not  be permitted to amortize the
cost of  the REMIC  Residual Certificate  as an  offset to  its share  of the
REMIC's taxable income.  However, REMIC taxable income will not include  cash
received by the REMIC  that represents a recovery of the REMIC's basis in its
assets,  and,  as described  above, the  issue  price of  the  REMIC Residual
Certificates  will  be  added  to  the  issue  price  of  the  REMIC  Regular
Certificates in determining the REMIC's initial basis in its assets.  See "--
Sale or Exchange of REMIC Residual Certificates"  below.  For a discussion of
possible adjustments  to income of  a subsequent holder  of a REMIC  Residual
Certificate to reflect any difference between  the actual cost of such  REMIC
Residual  Certificate  to such  holder  and  the  adjusted basis  such  REMIC
Residual Certificate would  have in the hands  of an original REMIC  Residual
Certificateholder, see "--Allocation of the Income of the REMIC  to the REMIC
Residual Certificates" above.

    Net  Losses of  the REMIC.    The REMIC  will  have a  net  loss for  any
calendar quarter in which  its deductions exceed its gross income.   Such net
loss would  be allocated among  the REMIC Residual Certificateholders  in the
same manner as  the REMIC's taxable  income.  The  net loss allocable  to any
REMIC Residual Certificate will not be deductible by the holder to the extent
that  such  net loss  exceeds  such  holder's adjusted  basis  in such  REMIC
Residual  Certificate.   Any net  loss that  is not  currently deductible  by
reason  of  this  limitation  may  only  be   used  by  such  REMIC  Residual
Certificateholder to offset its share of the REMIC's taxable income in future
periods   (but   not   otherwise).      The   ability   of   REMIC   Residual
Certificateholders  that  are  individuals or  closely  held  corporations to
deduct net losses may be subject to additional limitations under the Code.

    Mark  to  Market Rules.    Prospective  purchasers of  a  REMIC  Residual
Certificate should be aware that the IRS finalized regulations (the "Mark-to-
Market Regulations") which provide that a REMIC Residual Certificate acquired
after  January  3, 1995  cannot  be  marked to  market.   The  Mark-to-Market
Regulations  replaced  the  temporary regulations  which  allowed  a Residual
Certificate to  be marked  to market  provided that  it was  not a  "negative
value" residual  interest and  did not  have the  same economic  effect as  a
"negative value" residual interest.

    Pass-Through  of Non-Interest Expenses of the REMIC.   As a general rule,
all of the fees and expenses of a REMIC will be taken into account by holders
of the REMIC Residual  Certificates.  In  the case of  a single class  REMIC,
however,  the expenses  and a matching  amount of  additional income  will be
allocated,  under temporary  Treasury regulations,  among  the REMIC  Regular
Certificateholders and the REMIC Residual Certificateholders on a daily basis
in  proportion   to  the  relative   amounts  of  income  accruing   to  each
Certificateholder on that day.  In general terms, a single class REMIC is one
that  either (i)  would qualify,  under existing  Treasury regulations,  as a
grantor trust if  it were not  a REMIC (treating  all interests as  ownership
interests, even if  they would be classified  as debt for federal  income tax
purposes) or (ii)  is similar  to such  a trust  and is  structured with  the
principal purpose of avoiding the single class REMIC rules.  Unless otherwise
stated in  the applicable  Prospectus Supplement, the  expenses of  the REMIC
will be allocated  to holders of  the related REMIC Residual  Certificates in
their entirety and not to holders of the related REMIC Regular Certificates.

    In the  case of  individuals (or  trusts, estates  or other persons  that
compute their income in  the same manner as individuals) who  own an interest
in a  REMIC Regular Certificate  or a REMIC Residual  Certificate directly or
through a pass-through interest holder that is required to pass miscellaneous
itemized  deductions  through  to  its  owners  or  beneficiaries  (e.g.    a
partnership, an  S corporation  or a  grantor trust),  such expenses will  be
deductible under Code Section 67 only to the extent that such  expenses, plus
other "miscellaneous  itemized deductions"  of the  individual, exceed 2%  of
such  individual's adjusted  gross  income.   In  addition,  Code Section  68
provides that  the amount of  itemized deductions otherwise allowable  for an
individual  whose  adjusted  gross  income  exceeds  a  certain  amount  (the
"Applicable Amount") will be reduced by the lesser of (i) 3% of the excess of
the individual's adjusted gross income over the Applicable Amount or (ii) 80%
of  the amount  of itemized  deductions otherwise  allowable for  the taxable
year.  The  amount of additional taxable income  recognized by REMIC Residual
Certificateholders who are subject to  the limitations of either Code Section
67 or  Code Section  68 may  be substantial.   Further,  holders (other  than
corporations)  subject  to  the  alternative  minimum  tax  may   not  deduct
miscellaneous itemized  deductions in determining  such holders'  alternative
minimum taxable income.  The REMIC is required to report to each pass-through
interest holder and  to the IRS such holder's allocable share, if any, of the
REMIC's  non-interest  expenses.   The  term  "pass-through  interest holder"
generally refers to  individuals, entities taxed  as individuals and  certain
pass-through entities,  but does not  include real estate  investment trusts.
REMIC  Residual Certificateholders  that  are  pass-through interest  holders
should consult their own tax  advisors about the impact of these rules  on an
investment in the REMIC Residual Certificates.

    Excess  Inclusions.    A  portion of  the  income  on  a  REMIC  Residual
Certificate (referred  to  in the  Code  as an  "excess inclusion")  for  any
calendar  quarter will be subject to federal income tax in all events.  Thus,
for example, an excess  inclusion (i) may not, except as  described below, be
offset  by any  unrelated losses,  deductions or  loss carryovers of  a REMIC
Residual  Certificateholder;  (ii)  will be  treated  as  "unrelated business
taxable income" within the meaning of Code  Section 512 if the REMIC Residual
Certificateholder is a pension fund or any other organization that is subject
to  tax only  on its  unrelated  business taxable  income (see  "--Tax-Exempt
Investors" below); and (iii) is not eligible for any reduction in the rate of
withholding tax in the case of  a REMIC Residual Certificateholder that is  a
foreign investor.  See "--Non-U.S. Persons" below.

    Except  as discussed  in the  following  paragraph, with  respect to  any
REMIC  Residual Certificateholder,  the excess  inclusions  for any  calendar
quarter is  the excess,  if any,  of (i) the  income of  such REMIC  Residual
Certificateholder  for  that   calendar  quarter  from  its   REMIC  Residual
Certificate over (ii) the sum of the "daily accruals" (as defined  below) for
all  days   during  the  calendar   quarter  on  which  the   REMIC  Residual
Certificateholder holds such  REMIC Residual Certificate.   For this purpose,
the  daily  accruals  with  respect  to  a  REMIC  Residual  Certificate  are
determined by  allocating to  each day  in the  calendar quarter its  ratable
portion of the  product of the "adjusted  issue price" (as defined  below) of
the REMIC Residual Certificate at  the beginning of the calendar quarter  and
120 percent of the  "Federal long-term rate" in effect at  the time the REMIC
Residual Certificate is issued.  For this purpose, the "adjusted issue price"
of  a REMIC  Residual Certificate  at the  beginning of any  calendar quarter
equals the  issue price of the  REMIC Residual Certificate, increased  by the
amount of daily accruals for all prior quarters, and decreased (but not below
zero) by  the  aggregate  amount  of payments  made  on  the  REMIC  Residual
Certificate before  the beginning  of such quarter.   The  "federal long-term
rate" is an average of current yields on Treasury securities with a remaining
term of greater than nine years, computed and published monthly by the IRS.

    In  the case of  any REMIC  Residual Certificates held  by a  real estate
investment trust, the aggregate excess  inclusions with respect to such REMIC
Residual  Certificates, reduced  (but  not  below zero)  by  the real  estate
investment  trust  taxable  income  (within   the  meaning  of  Code  Section
857(b)(2),  excluding any  net capital  gain),  will be  allocated among  the
shareholders of such  trust in proportion to  the dividends received by  such
shareholders from such  trust, and any amount so allocated will be treated as
an excess  inclusion with respect to a REMIC  Residual Certificate as if held
directly by such shareholder.   Regulated investment companies,  common trust
funds and certain cooperatives are subject to similar rules.

    The Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996 has  eliminated the special
rule permitting Section  593 institutions ("thrift institutions")  to use net
operating  losses  and other  allowable  deductions  to  offset their  excess
inclusion  income from  REMIC residual  certificates  that have  "significant
value" within  the meaning  of the REMIC  Regulations, effective  for taxable
years  beginning after  December 31,  1995, except  with respect  to residual
certificates continuously  held by  a  thrift institution  since November  1,
1995.

    In  addition, the  Small Business  Job  Protection Act  of 1996  provides
three  rules  for  determining  the   effect  on  excess  inclusions  on  the
alternative minimum taxable income of  a residual holder.  First, alternative
minimum taxable income for such  residual holder is determined without regard
to  the  special  rule  that  taxable  income  cannot  be  less  than  excess
inclusions.  Second,  the amount of any alternative minimum tax net operating
loss deductions  must be  computed without regard  to any  excess inclusions.
Third, a residual holder's alternative minimum taxable  income for a tax year
cannot be less than excess inclusions for  the year.  The effect of this last
statutory  amendment is to  prevent the use  of nonrefundable tax  credits to
reduce a  taxpayer's income tax below its tentative minimum tax computed only
on excess  inclusions.   These rules  are effective  for tax years  beginning
after December 31, 1986,  unless a residual holder elects to  have such rules
apply only to tax years beginning after August 20, 1996.

    Payments.  Any  distribution made on  a REMIC  Residual Certificate to  a
REMIC Residual Certificateholder  will be treated as a  non-taxable return of
capital   to   the  extent   it   does   not   exceed  the   REMIC   Residual
Certificateholder's adjusted basis  in such REMIC  Residual Certificate.   To
the extent a  distribution exceeds such adjusted basis, it will be treated as
gain from the sale of the REMIC Residual Certificate.

    Sale or Exchange  of REMIC Residual  Certificates.  If  a REMIC  Residual
Certificate is sold or exchanged, the seller will generally recognize gain or
loss equal  to the  difference between  the amount  realized on  the sale  or
exchange and  its adjusted  basis in the  REMIC Residual  Certificate (except
that the  recognition of  loss may  be limited  under the  "wash sale"  rules
described below).   A holder's adjusted basis in a REMIC Residual Certificate
generally equals  the cost of such  REMIC Residual Certificate to  such REMIC
Residual Certificateholder, increased by the taxable income of the REMIC that
was  included in  the income  of such  REMIC Residual  Certificateholder with
respect  to such  REMIC Residual  Certificate, and  decreased (but  not below
zero) by the net  losses that have been allowed  as deductions to such  REMIC
Residual  Certificateholder with respect  to such REMIC  Residual Certificate
and   by  the   distributions  received   thereon  by  such   REMIC  Residual
Certificateholder.  In general, any such gain or loss will be capital gain or
loss  provided the  REMIC Residual Certificate  is held  as a  capital asset.
However,  REMIC Residual  Certificates will  be  "evidences of  indebtedness"
within the meaning of Code Section 582(c)(1), so that gain or loss recognized
from sale of a REMIC Residual Certificate by a  bank or thrift institution to
which such section applies would be ordinary income or loss.

    Except  as provided  in Treasury  regulations  yet to  be issued,  if the
seller  of a  REMIC  Residual  Certificate  reacquires  such  REMIC  Residual
Certificate, or acquires  any other REMIC Residual  Certificate, any residual
interest in  another REMIC or similar  interest in a "taxable  mortgage pool"
(as defined in Code Section  7701(i)) during the period beginning six  months
before, and ending six months after, the date of such sale, such sale will be
subject to the  "wash sale" rules of Code  Section 1091.  In  that event, any
loss realized by the REMIC Residual Certificateholder on the sale will not be
deductible,    but,   instead,    will   increase    such   REMIC    Residual
Certificateholder's adjusted basis in the newly acquired asset.

    The Act reduces  the maximum rates on long-term capital  gains recognized
on capital  assets held by individual taxpayers for more than eighteen months
as of the date of disposition (and would further reduce the  maximum rates on
such gains in  the year 2001 and thereafter for  certain individual taxpayers
who  meet specified conditions).   The capital gains  rate for capital assets
held by individual  taxpayers for more than  twelve months but not  more than
eighteen months  was not changed  by the Act.   The Act  does not change  the
capital  gains rates for corporations.   Prospective investors should consult
their own tax advisors concerning these tax law changes.

PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS AND OTHER TAXES

    The Code imposes a tax on REMICs equal to 100% of the net income  derived
from  "prohibited  transactions"  (the "Prohibited  Transactions  Tax").   In
general,  subject to certain  specified exceptions, a  prohibited transaction
means the  disposition of  a Mortgage  Asset, the  receipt of  income from  a
source other  than a Mortgage  Asset or certain other  permitted investments,
the receipt of  compensation for services, or gain from the disposition of an
asset  purchased with  the  payments  on the  Mortgage  Assets for  temporary
investment pending distribution  on the Certificates.  It  is not anticipated
that  the Trust  Fund  for any  Series  of Certificates  will  engage in  any
prohibited transactions in which it would recognize a material  amount of net
income.

    In  addition,  certain  contributions to  a  Trust Fund  as  to  which an
election has been made to treat such Trust Fund as a REMIC made after the day
on  which such Trust  Fund issues  all of its  interests could result  in the
imposition of  a tax  on the Trust  Fund equal  to 100% of  the value  of the
contributed property (the "Contributions Tax").  No Trust Fund for any Series
of Certificates will accept contributions that would subject it to such tax.

    In addition, a Trust Fund as  to which an election has been made to treat
such Trust Fund as a REMIC  may also be subject to federal income  tax at the
highest  corporate rate on "net income from foreclosure property," determined
by reference to the rules applicable to  real estate investment trusts.  "Net
income from  foreclosure property"  generally means  income from  foreclosure
property other than qualifying income for a real estate investment trust.

    Where any  Prohibited Transactions  Tax, Contributions  Tax,  tax on  net
income  from foreclosure property or  state or local  income or franchise tax
that  may be imposed on a REMIC relating to any Series of Certificates arises
out of or results  from (i) a breach of the  related Servicer's, Trustee's or
Depositor's obligations, as the case may be,  under the related Agreement for
such Series, such tax  will be borne by such Servicer,  Trustee or Depositor,
as the case may  be, out of its own funds or  (ii) the Depositor's obligation
to  repurchase a Mortgage Loan, such tax will  be borne by the Depositor.  In
the event that such Servicer, Trustee or Depositor, as the case may be, fails
to pay or is  not required to pay  any such tax  as provided above, such  tax
will be payable  out of the Trust Fund  for such Series and will  result in a
reduction in amounts available to be distributed to the Certificateholders of
such Series.

LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION

    If the  REMIC adopts a  plan of complete liquidation,  within the meaning
of Code Section 860F(a)(4)(A)(i), which may be accomplished by designating in
the REMIC's  final tax  return a  date on  which such adoption  is deemed  to
occur, and sells all of  its assets (other than cash) within  a 90-day period
beginning on  such date,  the REMIC  will not  be subject  to any  Prohibited
Transaction   Tax,  provided  that  the  REMIC   credits  or  distributes  in
liquidation all of  the sale proceeds plus  its cash (other than  the amounts
retained  to  meet   claims)  to  holders  of  Regular   and  REMIC  Residual
Certificates within the 90-day period.

    The REMIC  will terminate shortly following  the retirement of  the REMIC
Regular Certificates.  If a REMIC Residual Certificateholder's adjusted basis
in the REMIC  Residual Certificate exceeds the amount  of cash distributed to
such REMIC Residual Certificateholder  in final liquidation of  its interest,
then  it would  appear that  the  REMIC Residual  Certificateholder would  be
entitled to a loss equal to the amount of such excess.  It is unclear whether
such a loss, if allowed, will be a capital loss or an ordinary loss.

ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS

    Solely for the purpose of the administrative  provisions of the Code, the
REMIC  generally  will be  treated as  a partnership  and the  REMIC Residual
Certificateholders will be treated as the partners.  Certain information will
be furnished  quarterly to each  REMIC Residual Certificateholder who  held a
REMIC Residual Certificate on any day in the previous calendar quarter.

    Each REMIC Residual  Certificateholder is required to treat items  on its
return consistently  with their treatment  on the REMIC's return,  unless the
REMIC Residual  Certificateholder either  files a  statement identifying  the
inconsistency or establishes  that the inconsistency resulted  from incorrect
information  received  from the  REMIC.    The IRS  may  assert a  deficiency
resulting from a  failure to comply with the  consistency requirement without
instituting an administrative proceeding at the REMIC  level.  The REMIC does
not intend to register as a tax shelter pursuant to Code Section 6111 because
it is not  anticipated that the  REMIC will have  a net loss  for any of  the
first five  taxable years of  its existence.  Any  person that holds  a REMIC
Residual  Certificate as  a nominee  for another  person may  be  required to
furnish the REMIC, in  a manner to be provided in  Treasury regulations, with
the name and address of such person and other information.

TAX-EXEMPT INVESTORS

    Any REMIC  Residual Certificateholder  that is  a pension  fund or  other
entity that is  subject to  federal income  taxation only  on its  "unrelated
business  taxable income"  within  the meaning  of Code  Section 512  will be
subject to such tax on  that portion of the distributions received on a REMIC
Residual Certificate that is considered an excess inclusion.  See "--Taxation
of Owners of REMIC Residual Certificates--Excess Inclusions" above.

RESIDUAL CERTIFICATE PAYMENTS-NON-U.S. PERSONS

    Amounts  paid  to REMIC  Residual  Certificateholders  who are  not  U.S.
Persons  (see "--Taxation of  Owners of REMIC  Regular Certificates--Non-U.S.
Persons" above)  are treated as  interest for purposes  of the 30%  (or lower
treaty rate) United  States withholding tax.  Amounts  distributed to holders
of  REMIC Residual  Certificates  should  qualify  as  "portfolio  interest,"
subject to the conditions described in "--Taxation of Owners of REMIC Regular
Certificates"  above, but  only to  the extent  that the  underlying mortgage
loans were  originated  after  July  18,  1984.   Furthermore,  the  rate  of
withholding on  any income  on a  REMIC Residual  Certificate that  is excess
inclusion  income will not  be subject to reduction  under any applicable tax
treaties.  See "--Taxation  of Owners of REMIC  Residual Certificates--Excess
Inclusions" above.  If the  portfolio interest exemption is unavailable, such
amount  will  be  subject  to  United States  withholding  tax  when  paid or
otherwise distributed (or when the REMIC Residual Certificate is disposed of)
under  rules  similar to  those  for  withholding  upon disposition  of  debt
instruments that have OID.  The Code, however, grants the Treasury Department
authority to  issue regulations  requiring that those  amounts be  taken into
account earlier  than otherwise provided where necessary to prevent avoidance
of  tax  (for example,  where the  REMIC  Residual Certificates  do  not have
significant  value).     See  "--Taxation   of  Owners   of  REMIC   Residual
Certificates--Excess  Inclusions"  above.    If  the  amounts  paid to  REMIC
Residual  Certificateholders  that  are  not  U.S.  Persons  are  effectively
connected with their conduct of a trade or business within the United States,
the  30% (or  lower treaty rate)  withholding will  not apply.   Instead, the
amounts paid  to such non-U.S. Person will be  subject to U.S. federal income
taxation  at  regular graduated  rates.    For  special restrictions  on  the
transfer of REMIC  Residual Certificates, see "--Tax-Related  Restrictions on
Transfers of REMIC Residual Certificates" below.

    REMIC Regular  Certificateholders  and persons  related  to such  holders
should  not  acquire any  REMIC  Residual  Certificates,  and REMIC  Residual
Certificateholders and  persons related to REMIC  Residual Certificateholders
should not acquire  any REMIC Regular Certificates, without  consulting their
tax advisors as to the possible adverse tax consequences of such acquisition.

TAX-RELATED RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERS OF REMIC RESIDUAL CERTIFICATES

    Disqualified  Organizations.  An entity may not qualify as a REMIC unless
there are reasonable arrangements designed  to ensure that residual interests
in  such entity  are not  held  by "disqualified  organizations" (as  defined
below).  Further, a tax is imposed  on the transfer of a residual interest in
a REMIC to  a "disqualified organization." The  amount of the tax  equals the
product of (A) an amount (as determined under the REMIC Regulations) equal to
the present value  of the total anticipated "excess  inclusions" with respect
to such interest for periods after the transfer and (ii) the highest marginal
federal income tax  rate applicable to corporations.   The tax is  imposed on
the transferor unless the transfer is through an agent (including a broker or
other  middleman) for a disqualified organization,  in which event the tax is
imposed  on the  agent.   The person  otherwise liable for  the tax  shall be
relieved of liability  for the tax if the transferee furnished to such person
an  affidavit that the transferee is not  a disqualified organization and, at
the time of the transfer, such person does not have actual knowledge that the
affidavit  is false.   A  "disqualified  organization" means  (A) the  United
States, any State, possession or  political subdivision thereof, any  foreign
government, any international  organization or any agency  or instrumentality
of  any  of  the foregoing  (provided  that  such term  does  not  include an
instrumentality if  all its  activities are  subject to  tax and,  except for
FHLMC, a majority  of its  board of  directors is  not selected  by any  such
governmental  agency),  (B)  any organization  (other  than  certain farmers'
cooperatives)   generally  exempt  from  federal  income  taxes  unless  such
organization is subject to the tax on "unrelated business taxable income" and
(C) a rural electric or telephone cooperative.

    A tax is imposed on a "pass-through entity" (as  defined below) holding a
residual interest in a  REMIC if at any time  during the taxable year of  the
pass-through entity  a disqualified organization  is the record holder  of an
interest in  such entity.  The amount  of the tax is equal  to the product of
(A) the  amount of excess  inclusions for the  taxable year allocable  to the
interest held by  the disqualified organization and (B)  the highest marginal
federal income tax rate applicable  to corporations.  The pass-through entity
otherwise liable for the  tax, for any  period during which the  disqualified
organization is  the record  holder of an  interest in  such entity,  will be
relieved of liability  for the tax  if such record  holder furnishes to  such
entity  an  affidavit   that  such  record  holder  is   not  a  disqualified
organization  and, for  such period,  the pass-through  entity does  not have
actual  knowledge  that  the  affidavit  is  false.    For  this  purpose,  a
"pass-through  entity" means (i) a regulated  investment company, real estate
investment trust or  common trust fund, (ii)  a partnership, trust  or estate
and  (iii) certain  cooperatives.   Except  as may  be  provided in  Treasury
regulations not yet issued, any person holding  an interest in a pass-through
entity as  a nominee  for another  will, with  respect to  such interest,  be
treated as a  pass-through entity.   Electing large partnerships  (generally,
non-service partnerships with 100 or  more members electing to be  subject to
simplified IRS reporting provisions under Code sections 771 through 777) will
be taxable  on excess inclusion income  as if all partners  were disqualified
organizations.

    In order to comply with  these rules, the Agreement will provide  that no
record or beneficial  ownership interest in a REMIC  Residual Certificate may
be  purchased,  transferred  or  sold, directly  or  indirectly,  without the
express written consent  of the Master  Servicer.   The Master Servicer  will
grant such consent  to a proposed transfer only if it receives the following:
(i) an affidavit from  the proposed transferee to the effect that it is not a
disqualified organization and is not acquiring the REMIC Residual Certificate
as a nominee or agent for a disqualified organization and (ii)  a covenant by
the proposed transferee to the effect  that the proposed transferee agrees to
be bound by and to abide by the transfer restrictions applicable to the REMIC
Residual Certificate.

    Noneconomic  REMIC   Residual  Certificates.     The   REMIC  Regulations
disregard, for  federal income  tax purposes, any  transfer of  a Noneconomic
REMIC Residual  Certificate to a "U.S.  Person," as defined above,  unless no
significant purpose of the transfer is to enable the transferor to impede the
assessment or collection of tax.  A Noneconomic REMIC Residual Certificate is
any REMIC Residual Certificate (including a REMIC Residual Certificate with a
positive value  at issuance)  unless, at  the time of  transfer, taking  into
account  the Prepayment  Assumption and  any required  or permitted  clean up
calls  or required  liquidation  provided for  in the  REMIC's organizational
documents, (i) the present value of the expected  future distributions on the
REMIC Residual  Certificate at least equals the  product of the present value
of the  anticipated excess  inclusions and the  highest corporate  income tax
rate  in  effect for  the year  in  which the  transfer  occurs and  (ii) the
transferor  reasonably expects that the transferee will receive distributions
from the  REMIC at or after the time at which taxes accrue on the anticipated
excess inclusions in  an amount sufficient to  satisfy the accrued taxes.   A
significant purpose to  impede the assessment or collection  of tax exists if
the transferor, at the time of the transfer, either knew or should have known
that the  transferee would  be unwilling or  unable to  pay taxes due  on its
share of the taxable  income of the REMIC.   A transferor is presumed  not to
have  such   knowledge  if   (i)  the   transferor  conducted   a  reasonable
investigation of the  transferee and (ii) the transferee  acknowledges to the
transferor that the residual interest  may generate tax liabilities in excess
of the  cash flow and the transferee  represents that it intends  to pay such
taxes associated  with  the residual  interest  as they  become  due.   If  a
transfer  of  a Noneconomic  REMIC Residual  Certificate is  disregarded, the
transferor would continue  to be treated as  the owner of the  REMIC Residual
Certificate and would continue to be subject to tax on its  allocable portion
of the net income of the REMIC.

    Foreign Investors.  The REMIC Regulations provide  that the transfer of a
REMIC Residual Certificate that has a "tax avoidance potential" to a "foreign
person" will  be disregarded  for  federal income  tax purposes.   This  rule
appears to  apply  to a  transferee who  is  not a  U.S.  Person unless  such
transferee's  income  in  respect  of  the   REMIC  Residual  Certificate  is
effectively connected with  the conduct of a United Sates  trade or business.
A REMIC Residual  Certificate is  deemed to  have a  tax avoidance  potential
unless, at  the time of  transfer, the transferor reasonably  expect that the
REMIC will distribute to the transferee  amounts that will equal at least  30
percent of each excess inclusion,  and that such amounts will  be distributed
at or after the time the excess inclusion  accrues and not later than the end
of the calendar year following the year  of accrual.  If the non-U.S.  Person
transfers the REMIC Residual Certificate to a U.S.  Person, the transfer will
be disregarded, and the foreign transferor will continue to be treated as the
owner, if the transfer has the effect of allowing the transferor to avoid tax
on  accrued excess  inclusions.    The provisions  in  the REMIC  Regulations
regarding transfers of  REMIC Residual Certificates  that have tax  avoidance
potential to foreign persons  are effective for all transfers after  June 30,
1992.   The Pooling  and Servicing Agreement  will provide that  no record or
beneficial  ownership  interest  in  a  REMIC  Residual  Certificate  may  be
transferred, directly or indirectly, to  a non-U.S. Person unless such person
provides the  Trustee with  a duly completed  IRS Form  4224 and  the Trustee
consents to such transfer in writing.

    Any   attempted  transfer  or   pledge  in  violation   of  the  transfer
restrictions shall be  absolutely null and void  and shall vest no  rights in
any  purported transferee.    Investors in  REMIC  Residual Certificates  are
advised to consult  their own tax advisors  with respect to transfers  of the
REMIC  Residual  Certificates  and, in  addition,  pass-through  entities are
advised to consult their own tax  advisors with respect to any tax  which may
be imposed on a pass-through entity.

                           STATE TAX CONSIDERATIONS

    In addition to the federal income  tax consequences described in "Certain
Federal Income  Tax Consequences,"  potential investors  should consider  the
state  income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition
of the  Offered Certificates. State  income tax law may  differ substantially
from the corresponding  federal law, and this discussion does  not purport to
describe any aspect of the income tax laws of any state. Therefore, potential
investors  should consult their own tax  advisors with respect to the various
tax consequences of investments in the Offered Certificates.

                             ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

GENERAL

    The  Employee  Retirement  Income  Security  Act   of  1974,  as  amended
("ERISA"), imposes certain restrictions on employee benefit  plans subject to
ERISA ("Plans")  and on persons who  are parties in interest  or disqualified
persons ("parties in interest") with  respect to such Plans. Certain employee
benefit plans,  such as governmental  plans and church plans  (if no election
has  been made  under Section  410(d) of  the Code), are  not subject  to the
restrictions of  ERISA,  and assets  of such  plans may  be  invested in  the
Certificates  without regard  to the  ERISA  considerations described  below,
subject  to  other  applicable  federal  and state  law.  However,  any  such
governmental  or church plan  which is qualified under  Section 401(a) of the
Code  and exempt from taxation under Section 501(a) of the Code is subject to
the prohibited transaction rules set forth in Section 503 of the Code.

    Investments   by  Plans   are  subject   to  ERISA's   general  fiduciary
requirements,  including   the  requirement   of   investment  prudence   and
diversification  and the  requirement that  a Plan's  investments be  made in
accordance with the documents governing the Plan.

PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS

    General

    Section  406 of  ERISA prohibits parties  in interest  with respect  to a
Plan from engaging  in certain transactions involving  a Plan and  its assets
unless a  statutory or administrative  exemption applies to  the transaction.
Section  4975 of the Code imposes certain excise  taxes (or, in some cases, a
civil penalty may be assessed pursuant to Section 502(i) of ERISA) on parties
in interest which engage in non-exempt prohibited transactions.

    The  United States  Department  of Labor  ("Labor")  has issued  a  final
regulation  (29 C.F.R. Section  2510.3-101) containing rules  for determining
what constitutes the  assets of a Plan.  This regulation provides that,  as a
general  rule,  the   underlying  assets  and  properties   of  corporations,
partnerships,  trusts and  certain other  entities in which  a Plan  makes an
"equity investment" will be  deemed for purposes of ERISA to be assets of the
Plan unless certain exceptions apply.

    Under the terms of  the regulation, the Trust may be deemed  to hold plan
assets by reason  of a Plan's investment  in a Certificate; such  plan assets
would  include an  undivided interest  in the  Mortgage  Loans and  any other
assets held by  the Trust.  In such an  event, the Asset  Seller, the  Master
Servicer, the Trustee, any insurer of  the Mortgage Assets and other persons,
in providing services with respect to the assets of the Trust, may be parties
in interest, subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of Title I of
ERISA,  including the  prohibited transaction  provisions of  Section  406 of
ERISA  (and  of Section  4975  of  the Code),  with  respect to  transactions
involving such assets unless such transactions  are subject to a statutory or
administrative exemption.

    The regulations  contain a de minimis  safe-harbor rule that  exempts any
entity from plan assets status as long  as the aggregate equity investment in
such  entity  by  plans  is  not  significant.    For  this  purpose,  equity
participation  in the  entity will  be significant  if immediately  after any
acquisition of any equity interest in the entity, "benefit plan investors" in
the aggregate, own at least 25% of the value of any class of equity interest.
"Benefit plan investors"  are defined as  Plans as  well as employee  benefit
plans not  subject to ERISA  (e.g., governmental plans).   The 25% limitation
must be  met with respect  to each class  of certificates, regardless  of the
portion of total equity value represented by such class, on an ongoing basis.

Availability of Underwriter's Exemption for Certificates

    Labor  has granted  to  Morgan  Stanley  &  Co.  Incorporated  Prohibited
Transaction Exemption 90-24,  Exemption Application No. D-8019,  55 Fed. Reg.
20548  (1990) (the  "Exemption") which  exempts from  the application  of the
prohibited transaction rules  transactions relating to: (1)  the acquisition,
sale and holding  by Plans of certain certificates  representing an undivided
interest in certain  asset-backed pass-through trusts, with  respect to which
Morgan  Stanley  & Co.  Incorporated or  any  of its  affiliates is  the sole
underwriter or the  manager or co-manager of the  underwriting syndicate; and
(2) the servicing, operation and management of such asset-backed pass-through
trusts, provided that the general conditions and certain other conditions set
forth in the Exemption are satisfied.

    General  Conditions of the Exemption.   Section II  of the Exemption sets
forth  the following  general conditions  which  must be  satisfied before  a
transaction involving the  acquisition, sale and holding  of the Certificates
or a transaction  in connection with the servicing,  operation and management
of the Trust may be eligible for exemptive relief thereunder:

        (1) The  acquisition  of  the Certificates  by  a  Plan is  on  terms
    (including  the  price  for  such Certificates)  that  are  at  least  as
    favorable  to the  investing Plan  as they  would be  in an  arm's-length
    transaction with an unrelated party;

        (2) The rights  and interests evidenced by the Certificates  acquired
    by the Plan  are not subordinated to  the rights and  interests evidenced
    by other certificates of the Trust;

        (3) The  Certificates acquired by the Plan  have received a rating at
    the time of such acquisition that is in one  of the three highest generic
    rating  categories  from any  of  Duff  & Phelps  Inc.,  Fitch  Investors
    Service, Inc.,  Moody's Investors  Service,  Inc. and  Standard &  Poor's
    Ratings Group.

        (4)  The Trustee is  not an  affiliate of the  Underwriter, the Asset
    Seller, the  Master Servicer,  any insurer  of the  Mortgage Assets,  any
    borrower  whose obligations under  one or more  Mortgage Loans constitute
    more  than 5%  of  the aggregate  unamortized  principal balance  of  the
    assets  in  the  Trust,  or  any  of  their  respective  affiliates  (the
    "Restricted Group");

        (5)  The sum of all payments made to  and retained by the Underwriter
    in connection  with the distribution  of the Certificates  represents not
    more  than reasonable  compensation for  underwriting such  Certificates;
    the  sum  of all  payments  made  to and  retained  by  the Asset  Seller
    pursuant to the sale  of the Mortgage Loans  to the Trust represents  not
    more than  the fair market value of  such Mortgage Loans; the  sum of all
    payments made to and retained by  the Master Servicer represent not  more
    than  reasonable compensation  for the  Master Servicer's  services under
    the  Pooling   Agreement  and  reimbursement  of  the  Master  Servicer's
    reasonable expenses in connection therewith; and

        (6)  The  Plan  investing  in  the  Certificates  is  an  "accredited
    investor" as defined in Rule  501(a)(1) of Regulation D of the Securities
    and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended.

    Before purchasing  a Certificate,  a fiduciary  of a  Plan should  itself
confirm  (a) that the Certificates  constitute "certificates" for purposes of
the Exemption and (b) that the  specific and general conditions set forth  in
the Exemption and the other requirements set forth in the Exemption  would be
satisfied.   The  Exemption will  apply  to Certificates  purchased by  Plans
during a  "pre-funding period,"  if any, in  which additional  Mortgage Loans
will be added to the Trust, provided certain conditions in the  Exemption are
satisfied.   The Prospectus Supplement  for each Series of  Certificates will
specify whether there  is a "pre-funding period" and  whether such additional
conditions will be satisfied.

REVIEW BY PLAN FIDUCIARIES

    Any Plan fiduciary  considering whether to  purchase any Certificates  on
behalf of a Plan should consult with  its counsel regarding the applicability
of  the fiduciary  responsibility and  prohibited  transaction provisions  of
ERISA and the Code to such investment. Among other things, before  purchasing
any  Certificates,   a  fiduciary  of   a  Plan  subject  to   the  fiduciary
responsibility provisions of ERISA or an employee benefit plan subject to the
prohibited  transaction  provisions   of  the  Code   should  make  its   own
determination as to the availability of the exemptive  relief provided in the
Exemption,  and  also  consider  the  availability  of any  other  prohibited
transaction  exemptions. In  particular, in  connection  with a  contemplated
purchase of  Certificates representing a  beneficial ownership interest  in a
pool of single  family residential first mortgage loans,  such Plan fiduciary
should consider the availability  of the Exemption or  Prohibited Transaction
Class  Exemption  83-1  ("PTCE  83-1")  for  certain  transactions  involving
mortgage pool investment trusts. The  Prospectus Supplement with respect to a
series  of  Certificates  may contain  additional  information  regarding the
application of the Exemption, PTCE 83-1, or any other exemption, with respect
to the Certificates offered thereby.


                               LEGAL INVESTMENT

    Each class of Offered Certificates  will be rated at the date of issuance
in  one of the four highest rating categories  by at least one Rating Agency.
Unless otherwise specified  in the related  Prospectus Supplement, each  such
class that is rated  in one of the two highest rating  categories by at least
one  Rating  Agency  will constitute  "mortgage  related  securities" ("SMMEA
Certificates") for purposes of the Secondary Mortgage Market Enhancement  Act
of  1984  ("SMMEA") and,  as  such,  will  constitute legal  investments  for
persons,  trusts, corporations,  partnerships, associations,  business trusts
and business entities (including, but not limited to, state chartered savings
banks,   commercial  banks,  savings  and  loan  associations  and  insurance
companies, as  well  as trustees  and  state government  employee  retirement
systems) created pursuant to or existing under  the laws of the United States
or of any  state (including the District  of Columbia and Puerto  Rico) whose
authorized investments  are subject  to state regulation  to the  same extent
that,  under  applicable law,  obligations  issued  by  or guaranteed  as  to
principal and  interest by the United States or any agency or instrumentality
thereof constitute  legal investments for  such entities.   Alaska, Arkansas,
Colorado,  Connecticut,   Delaware,  Florida,   Georgia,  Illinois,   Kansas,
Maryland,  Michigan, Missouri,  Nebraska,  New  Hampshire,  New  York,  North
Carolina,  Ohio,  South Dakota,  Utah,  Virginia  and  West Virginia  enacted
legislation before the October  4, 1991 cutoff established by  SMMEA for such
enactments, limiting to  varying extents the ability of  certain entities (in
particular, insurance companies) to invest in mortgage related securities, in
most cases by requiring  the affected investors to rely solely  upon existing
state law,  and not SMMEA.   Investors affected  by such legislation  will be
authorized  to invest in  SMMEA Certificates only  to the extent  provided in
such  legislation.   SMMEA  provides,  however, that  in  no event  will  the
enactment  of any  such legislation  affect the  validity of  any contractual
commitment to purchase,  hold or invest in "mortgage  related securities," or
require the sale  or other disposition  of such securities,  so long as  such
contractual  commitment was  made or  such securities  acquired prior  to the
enactment of such legislation.

    SMMEA also amended the legal investment authority of  federally chartered
depository institutions as follows: federal savings and loan associations and
federal savings banks may  invest in, sell  or otherwise deal with  "mortgage
related securities" without  limitation as to the percentage  of their assets
represented thereby, federal credit unions may invest in such securities, and
national banks  may purchase  such securities for  their own  account without
regard to the  limitations generally applicable to investment  securities set
forth in 12 U.S.C. 24 (Seventh), subject in each case to  such regulations as
the  applicable  federal  regulatory  authority   may  prescribe.    In  this
connection,  federal credit unions  should review  the National  Credit Union
Administration ("NCUA") Letter to Credit Unions No. 96, as modified by Letter
to Credit Unions No. 108, which includes  guidelines to assist federal credit
unions in  making investment decisions  for mortgage related  securities, and
the NCUA's regulation  "Investment and  Deposit Activities"  (12 C.F.R.  Part
703), which sets  forth certain restrictions on investment  by federal credit
unions in mortgage related securities.

    Institutions where  investment activities are subject to legal investment
laws  or regulations  or  review  by certain  regulatory  authorities may  be
subject  to  restrictions  on  investment  in  certain  classes  of   Offered
Certificates.  Any financial institution which is subject to the jurisdiction
of  the Comptroller of  the Currency, the  Board of Governors  of the Federal
Reserve  System,  the  Federal Deposit  Insurance  Corporation  ("FDIC"), the
Office of  Thrift Supervision ("OTS"),  the NCUA  or other  federal or  state
agencies  with  similar   authority  should  review  any   applicable  rules,
guidelines and regulations prior to  purchasing any Offered Certificate.  The
Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council, for example, has issued a
Supervisory  Policy Statement on Securities Activities effective February 11,
1992 (the "Policy  Statement") setting forth  guidelines for and  significant
restrictions on investments in  "high-risk mortgage securities."  The  Policy
Statement  has been adopted by  the Comptroller of  the Currency, the Federal
Reserve Board, the FDIC, the OTS  and the NCUA (with certain  modifications),
with respect to  the depository institutions that they regulate.   The Policy
Statement  generally indicates  that a  mortgage  derivative product  will be
deemed  to  be high  risk  if it  exhibits  greater price  volatility  than a
standard fixed rate  thirty-year mortgage security.  According  to the Policy
Statement, prior  to purchase, a  depository institution will be  required to
determine  whether a  mortgage  derivative  product  that it  is  considering
acquiring is high-risk, and if so  that the proposed acquisition would reduce
the  institution's overall  interest rate  risk.   Reliance  on analysis  and
documentation  obtained  from  a securities  dealer  or  other outside  party
without internal  analysis by the  institution would be unacceptable.   There
can be  no assurance  that any classes  of Offered  Certificates will  not be
treated as high-risk under the Policy Statement.

    The  predecessor  to  the  OTS  issued a  bulletin,  entitled,  "Mortgage
Derivative  Products and  Mortgage  Swaps",  which  is applicable  to  thrift
institutions regulated by  the OTS.  The bulletin  established guidelines for
the  investment by  savings  institutions  in  certain  "high-risk"  mortgage
derivative  securities and  limitations  on  the use  of  such securities  by
insolvent,  undercapitalized or otherwise "troubled" institutions.  According
to  the bulletin,  such "high-risk"  mortgage  derivative securities  include
securities  having  certain  specified  characteristics,  which  may  include
certain classes  of Certificates.   In  accordance with  Section  402 of  the
Financial Institutions  Reform,  Recovery and  Enhancement Act  of 1989,  the
foregoing  bulletin  will  remain  in  effect  unless  and  until   modified,
terminated,  set aside or superseded by  the FDIC.  Similar policy statements
have  been  issued  by  regulators  having jurisdiction  over  the  types  of
depository institutions.

    In  September 1993  the National  Association of  Insurance Commissioners
released  a draft model  investment law  (the "Model  Law") which  sets forth
model investment guidelines for the insurance industry.  Institutions subject
to insurance  regulatory  authorities  may  be  subject  to  restrictions  on
investment  similar  to  those  set  forth   in  the  Model  Law  and   other
restrictions.

    If  specified  in the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  other  classes of
Offered Certificates  offered pursuant to this Prospectus will not constitute
"mortgage  related securities" under SMMEA.  The appropriate characterization
of this Offered Certificate under various  legal investment restrictions, and
thus the ability of investors subject  to these restrictions to purchase such
Offered   Certificates,   may   be   subject   to   significant  interpretive
uncertainties.

    Except  as  to  the  status  of  SMMEA  Certificates  identified  in  the
Prospectus  Supplement for  a series as  "mortgage related  securities" under
SMMEA,  the  Depositor  will  make   no  representations  as  to  the  proper
characterization   of  the  Offered  Certificates  for  legal  investment  or
financial institution regulatory purposes, or as to the ability of particular
investors  to  purchase  any  Offered  Certificates  under  applicable  legal
investment   restrictions.    The  uncertainties  described  above  (and  any
unfavorable future determinations  concerning legal  investment or  financial
institution  regulatory characteristics  of  the  Offered  Certificates)  may
adversely affect the liquidity of the Offered Certificates.

    The  foregoing does  not  take into  consideration  the applicability  of
statutes,  rules, regulations,  orders,  guidelines  or agreements  generally
governing  investments  made by  a  particular investor,  including,  but not
limited to, "prudent  investor" provisions,  percentage-of-assets limits  and
provisions which may restrict or  prohibit investment in securities which are
not "interest bearing" or "income paying."

    There may  be other  restrictions on  the ability  of certain  investors,
including depository institutions, either to purchase Offered Certificates or
to  purchase  Offered   Certificates  representing  more  than   a  specified
percentage  of  the  investor's  assets.  Accordingly,  all  investors  whose
investment activities are subject  to legal investment laws  and regulations,
regulatory  capital requirements or  review by regulatory  authorities should
consult with their  own legal  advisors in  determining whether  and to  what
extent the Offered Certificates of  any class constitute legal investments or
are subject to investment, capital or other restrictions, and, if applicable,
whether  SMMEA has  been  overridden  in any  jurisdiction  relevant to  such
investor.

                             PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

    The Offered  Certificates offered hereby and  by the Supplements  to this
Prospectus will  be offered in  series. The distribution of  the Certificates
may  be effected  from time to  time in  one or more  transactions, including
negotiated  transactions, at  a fixed  public  offering price  or at  varying
prices to  be determined at  the time of  sale or at  the time of  commitment
therefor. If so  specified in the related Prospectus  Supplement, the Offered
Certificates will be  distributed in a firm  commitment underwriting, subject
to the terms and conditions of  the underwriting agreement, by Morgan Stanley
& Co.  Incorporated  ("Morgan  Stanley")  acting as  underwriter  with  other
underwriters, if any, named therein. In such event, the Prospectus Supplement
may also specify that the  underwriters will not be obligated to pay  for any
Offered  Certificates  agreed  to  be purchased  by  purchasers  pursuant  to
purchase agreements acceptable to the  Depositor. In connection with the sale
of  Offered  Certificates,  underwriters may  receive  compensation  from the
Depositor  or  from  purchasers  of  Offered  Certificates  in  the  form  of
discounts,   concessions  or  commissions.  The  Prospectus  Supplement  will
describe any such compensation paid by the Depositor. 

    Alternatively,  the  Prospectus  Supplement  may  specify  that   Offered
Certificates will be distributed by Morgan Stanley acting as agent or in some
cases  as  principal  with  respect  to  Offered  Certificates  that  it  has
previously purchased or agreed  to purchase. If Morgan Stanley  acts as agent
in the sale  of Offered Certificates, Morgan  Stanley will receive  a selling
commission with  respect to  such Offered  Certificates, depending  on market
conditions, expressed as a percentage of the aggregate Certificate Balance or
notional amount  of such Offered  Certificates as  of the  Cut-off Date.  The
exact  percentage for each  series of Certificates  will be disclosed  in the
related Prospectus  Supplement. To the  extent that Morgan Stanley  elects to
purchase Offered Certificates as principal, Morgan Stanley may realize losses
or profits based upon the difference between its purchase price and the sales
price. The  Prospectus Supplement  with respect to  any series  offered other
than through underwriters  will contain information  regarding the nature  of
such offering and any agreements to be entered into between the Depositor and
purchasers of Offered Certificates of such series. 

    The Depositor will  indemnify Morgan Stanley and any underwriters against
certain civil liabilities, including liabilities  under the Securities Act of
1933, or will contribute to payments Morgan Stanley and any underwriters  may
be required to make in respect thereof.

    In the ordinary course of business, Morgan  Stanley and the Depositor may
engage in various securities and financing transactions, including repurchase
agreements  to provide interim  financing of  the Depositor's  mortgage loans
pending the sale of  such mortgage loans or interests  therein, including the
Certificates.

    Offered Certificates will be  sold primarily to institutional  investors.
Purchasers of Offered Certificates, including dealers, may, depending  on the
facts and  circumstances of  such purchases, be  deemed to  be "underwriters"
within the meaning of the Securities Act  of 1933 in connection with reoffers
and sales by them of  Offered Certificates. Certificateholders should consult
with their legal advisors in this regard prior to any such reoffer or sale. 

    As  to each  series  of  Certificates, only  those  classes  rated in  an
investment grade rating category by any Rating Agency will be offered hereby.
Any non-investment-grade class  may be initially  retained by the  Depositor,
and may be sold by the Depositor at any time in private transactions.

                                LEGAL MATTERS

    Certain legal  matters  in connection  with  the Certificates,  including
certain  federal  income  tax  consequences,  will be  passed  upon  for  the
Depositor by Latham & Watkins or Brown & Wood LLP, New York, New York.

                            FINANCIAL INFORMATION

    A  new  Trust  Fund  will  be  formed  with  respect  to  each series  of
Certificates and no Trust Fund will engage in any business activities or have
any  assets or  obligations prior to  the issuance  of the related  series of
Certificates. Accordingly, no financial statements with respect  to any Trust
Fund  will  be  included in  this  Prospectus or  in  the  related Prospectus
Supplement. 

                                    RATING

    It is a condition  to the issuance of  any class of Offered  Certificates
that they  shall have been rated not lower than investment grade, that is, in
one of the four highest rating categories, by a Rating Agency. 

    Ratings on mortgage pass-through  certificates address the likelihood  of
receipt by certificateholders of all distributions on the underlying mortgage
loans. These ratings address the structural, legal and issuer-related aspects
associated  with  such certificates,  the nature  of the  underlying mortgage
loans and the  credit quality of the  guarantor, if any. Ratings  on mortgage
pass-through certificates do  not represent any assessment of  the likelihood
of principal  prepayments  by mortgagors  or  of  the degree  by  which  such
prepayments  might differ  from those  originally anticipated.  As a  result,
certificateholders might  suffer  a lower  than  anticipated yield,  and,  in
addition, holders of  stripped interest certificates  in extreme cases  might
fail to recoup their initial investments. 

    A  security  rating  is  not  a  recommendation  to  buy,  sell  or  hold
securities and may  be subject to revision or  withdrawal at any time  by the
assigning  rating  organization.  Each security  rating  should  be evaluated
independently of any other security rating.

                        Morgan Stanley Capital I Inc..
                                  Depositor

              MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATES, SERIES _______

    The    Series    199_-_   Mortgage    Pass-Through    Certificates   (the
"Certificates") will consist of  ____ classes of Certificates, designated  as
the Class ( ) Certificates, Class ( ) Certificates and Class ( ) Certificates
(the Class (  ) Certificates, collectively, the  "Subordinate Certificates").
It is  a condition of the issuance of the Class ( ) Certificates that they be
rated (not lower than) "_______________" by _________________. 

    The Certificates  will represent in  the aggregate the  entire beneficial
interest in  a trust  fund (the  "Trust Fund")  to be  established by  Morgan
Stanley  Capital I  Inc.  (the "Depositor").    The Trust  Fund  will consist
primarily of (a  pool (the "Mortgage Pool") of (fixed rate) (adjustable rate)
mortgage  loans, with  terms to  maturity  of not  more than  ___  years (the
"Mortgage    Loans"),   secured   by   (first   and/or   junior)   liens   on
(multifamily)(commercial)  properties,)  (mortgage  participations,  mortgage
pass-through certificates,  mortgaged-backed securities  evidencing interests
therein or secured thereby (the "MBS"),) (and) (certain direct obligations of
the  United  States,  agencies  thereof  or  agencies  created  thereby  (the
"Government Securities")).  The Mortgage Loans were originated or acquired by
___________ (the "Mortgage Asset Seller")  and will be sold to the  Depositor
on or prior to the date of initial issuance of the Certificates.

    The Class  ( ) Certificates will  evidence approximately an  initial ___%
undivided interest in the Trust Fund and the Subordinate Certificates, in the
aggregate,  will evidence approximately an initial ___% undivided interest in
the Trust Fund.  Only the Class ( ) Certificates are being offered hereby.

    INVESTORS  SHOULD CONSIDER, AMONG  OTHER THINGS, CERTAIN  RISKS SET FORTH
UNDER THE CAPTION "RISK FACTORS" HEREIN AND IN THE PROSPECTUS.

    (The MBS will (consist of) (include) the following series  and classes of
securities:  (identify title(s) and  class(es) of MBS)(,  including (title(s)
and   class(es)  of  MBS).)    (The  (title(s)  and  class(es)  of  MBS)  are
(subordinate) (interest-only) securities.)  (See "Summary--The MBS."))

    (The  yield to  investors  in the  (interest-only)  Certificates will  be
(extremely) sensitive to the rate and timing of principal payments (including
prepayments, repurchases, defaults  and liquidations) in the  Mortgage Loans,
which may  fluctuate significantly over time.   An (extremely)  rapid rate of
principal  payments on  the Mortgage  Loans could  result in  the  failure of
investors  in the  (interest-only)  Certificates  to  recover  their  initial
investments.)

    (As  more  fully  described  herein,  each  Mortgage  Loan  provides  for
periodic  adjustments (which may  occur monthly, quarterly,  semi-annually or
annually) of the mortgage interest rate (the "Mortgage Rate") thereon and the
monthly  payment  due  thereon,  in  each case  subject  to  the  limitations
described herein.   Accordingly, a significant increase in  the Mortgage Rate
and the amount of  the scheduled monthly  payment due thereafter may  result,
which may  increase the  likelihood  of default  on  and prepayment  of  such
Mortgage  Loan.  In most cases, because the  Mortgage Rate on a Mortgage Loan
will be subject to adjustment monthly,  while the monthly payment due thereon
will  be  subject  to  adjustment  annually,  in  each case  subject  to  the
limitations described  herein, and  because the  application of  payment caps
limits adjustments  to the  monthly payments on  certain Mortgage  Loans, the
Mortgage Loans (and consequently the Class  ( ) Certificates) may be  subject
to accelerated, reduced or negative amortization.

                           ------------------------

Information  contained herein  is  subject  to completion  or  amendment.   A
registration statement relating  to these securities has been  filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.  These securities may not be sold nor may
offers  to  buy be  accepted prior  to  the time  the  registration statement
becomes effective.  This prospectus supplement and the prospectus to which it
relates shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer
to buy nor shall there be any sale  of these securities in any State in which
such offer, solicitation or  sale would be unlawful prior  to registration or
qualification under the securities laws of any such State.
    

Certain of the  Mortgage Loans continue  to be in  an initial fixed  interest
rate period and have not experienced the first adjustment to their respective
Mortgage Rates.)   The characteristics of  the Mortgage Loans are  more fully
described herein under "Description of the Mortgage Pool."

    Distributions on the  Class ( ) Certificates will be  made, to the extent
of available funds, on the __th day of each (month) (__) or,  if any such day
is  not a  business day, on  the next  succeeding business day,  beginning in
__________ (each, a  "Distribution Date").  (As more  fully described herein,
distributions allocable to interest, if any, on the Class ( ) Certificates on
each Distribution  Date will  be based  on the  (applicable) (then-applicable
variable)  pass-through  rate  (the "Pass-Through  Rate")  and  the aggregate
(principal  balance  (the  "Certificate  Balance"))  (notional  balance  (the
"Notional Balance"))  of such class  (or each component  thereof) outstanding
immediately  prior  to  such  Distribution  Date.    (The  Pass-Through  Rate
applicable to  the Class (  ) Certificates from time  to time will  equal the
(sum of __% and the Index (as defined herein) subject to certain limitations)
(weighted average of  the Class ( )  Remittance Rates (as defined  herein) on
the Mortgage Loans.  The Pass-Through Rate for the  Class ( ) Certificates on
the  first Distribution Date will  be _% per annum and  is expected to change
thereafter (because the weighted average of the Class ( ) Remittance Rates is
expected to  change for  succeeding  Distribution Dates.)   Distributions  in
respect of principal, if  any, of the Class ( ) Certificates  will be made as
described herein under  "Description of the Certificates  -- Distributions --
Priority" and "--Calculations of Principal".)

    (_______________ will act  as master servicer of the Mortgage  Loans (the
"Master Servicer").  The  obligations of the Master Servicer  with respect to
the Certificates will be limited to its contractual servicing obligations and
the  obligation  under  certain  circumstances   to  make  Advances  to   the
Certificateholders.  If the Master Servicer fails to make any such Advance or
otherwise fails  to perform  its servicing obligations,  the Trustee  will be
obligated to assume such  servicing obligations and  to make such Advance  to
the  extent  described herein.    See  "Description  of the  Certificates  --
Advances" herein.  (The only) obligation of the Depositor with respect to the
Certificates  will  be to  obtain  from  the  Mortgage Asset  Seller  certain
representations  and warranties  with respect  to the  Mortgage Loans  and to
assign  to the  Trustee  the  obligation  of the  Mortgage  Asset  Seller  to
repurchase or substitute  for any Mortgage Loan  as to which there  exists an
uncured material breach of any such representation or warranty.)

    An election will (not)  be made to treat the Trust Fund as a "real estate
mortgage investment  conduit" (a  "REMIC") for  federal income  tax purposes.
(The  Class (  )  Certificates  will constitute  "regular  interests" in  the
REMIC.)   See "Certain  Federal Income  Tax Consequences"  herein and  in the

liquidations) on the  Mortgage Loans.   See "Risk  Factors" herein and  "Risk
Factors  -- Average  Life of  Certificates; Prepayments;  Yields"  and "Yield

time to time to the public in negotiated transactions or otherwise at varying
prices to be determined at the time of sale.  Proceeds to the Depositor  from
the sale of the  Class ( ) Certificates will be ___% of the initial aggregate
principal balance  thereof as  of ____________ 1,  199_ (the  "Cut-off Date")
plus accrued  interest  from  the Cut-off  Date,  before  deducting  expenses
payable by the Depositor.

     The Class ( ) Certificates  are offered subject to prior sale,  when, as
and if accepted  by the Underwriter, and subject to approval of certain legal
matters by  __________, counsel  for the Underwriter.   It  is expected  that

                     Adjustment Date  immediately follow  each Interest  Rate

                     Loan  over its then remaining  amortization schedule and

                         holders of the  Class ( )  Certificates by means  of
                         the subordination,  to the  extent provided  herein,
                         will  be  accomplished  by the  application  of  the
                         Available Distribution  Amount  to  the  Class  (  )
                         Certificates prior to the application thereof to the

                         of the Certificates -- Subordination" herein.

(The Subordinate
  Certificates. . . . .  The   Class  (  )   Certificates  have   an  initial
                         Certificate  Balance of  $____________ (the  initial
                         "Class ( ) Balance") and the Class ( )  Certificates
                         have  an initial  Certificate  Balance of  $________
                         (the  initial  "Class  ( )  Balance"),  representing
                         ____%  and  _____%,  respectively,  of the  Mortgage
                         Loans  by aggregate  principal  balance  as  of  the
                         Cut-off  Date.  Interest shall accrue on the Class (
                         ) Balance and  Class ( )  Balance at a  Pass-Through
                         Rate  equal  to  (____%  per  annum)  (the  weighted
                         average of  the Net  Mortgage Rates  in effect  from
                         time to time on the Mortgage Loans).

                     (The  Class ( ) Certificates, which have no Pass-Through
                     Rate  and  initially  have  a  Certificate  Balance   of
                     $______________  (the  initial  "Class  (  )  Balance"),
                     represent  the right to receive on any Distribution Date
                     the  balance,  if  any,  of  the  Available Distribution
                     Amount remaining after  the payment of all  interest and
                     principal  due on  the  other Classes  of  Certificates.
                     Subsequent to the first Distribution Date, the Class ( )
                     Balance will equal the  excess, if any, of the aggregate
                     Stated  Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans over the
                     sum of  the Class  ( )  Balance, Class  ( )  Balance and
                     Class ( ) Balance.)

                     (The Subordinate Certificates are not offered hereby.))

(Special
  Prepayment
  Considerations . . . . The  rate of principal  payments on the Class  (   )
                         Certificates  collectively will  depend on  the rate
                         and   timing   of  principal   payments   (including
                         prepayments,  defaults  and   liquidations)  on  the
                         Mortgage Loans.  As is the case with mortgage-backed
                         securities generally, the  Class (    ) Certificates
                         are  subject   to  substantial   inherent  cash-flow
                         uncertainties  because  the  Mortgage Loans  may  be
                         prepaid at  any  time.   Generally, when  prevailing
                         interest rates  are increasing, prepayment  rates on
                         mortgage  loans tend  to  decrease, resulting  in  a
                         reduced return of  principal to investors at  a time
                         when reinvestment  at such  higher prevailing  rates
                         would  be desirable.    Conversely, when  prevailing
                         interest rates  are declining,  prepayment rates  on
                         mortgage loans  tend  to increase,  resulting  in  a
                         greater return of  principal to investors at  a time
                         when reinvestment  at comparable yields  may not  be
                         possible.

                     (The  multiple  class structure  of  the  Class  (     )
                     Certificates results  in the  allocation of  prepayments
                     among  certain classes  as  follows (to  be included  as
                     appropriate):

                     (SEQUENTIALLY  PAYING CLASSES:    (All)  classes of  the
                     Class  (      )  Certificates  are  subject  to  various
                     priorities for payment of principal as described herein.
                     Distributions on classes  having an earlier priority  of
                     payment will be immediately  affected by the  prepayment
                     speed of  the Mortgage  Loans early  in the life  of the
                     Mortgage  Pool.  Distributions  on classes with  a later
                     priority of payment will not be directly affected by the
                     prepayment  speed  until  such  time  as  principal   is
                     distributable on such  classes; however,  the timing  of
                     commencement of principal distributions and the weighted
                     average lives  of such classes  will be affected  by the
                     prepayment speed  experienced both before  and after the
                     commencement   of   principal   distributions  on   such
                     classes.)

                     ((SCHEDULED) CERTIFICATES:   Principal  distributions on
                     the  (Scheduled) Certificates will be payable in amounts
                     determined  based  on  schedules  as  described  herein,
                     provided that the prepayment speed of the Mortgage Loans
                     each month  remains (at  a constant  level of)  (between
                     approximately  ___% CPR  (as defined  herein) and)  ___%
                     CPR.   (However, as  discussed herein,  actual principal
                     distributions  are likely to deviate  from the described
                     amounts, because it  is highly unlikely that  the actual
                     prepayment speed of  the Mortgage Loans each  month will
                     remain at or near ___% CPR.)  If the prepayment speed of
                     the Mortgage Loans is consistently higher than ___% CPR,
                     then the (Companion) Certificates will be retired before
                     all of the (Scheduled) Certificates are retired, and the
                     rate of principal distributions and the weighted average
                     lives  of  the remaining  (Scheduled)  Certificates will
                     become  significantly more  sensitive to changes  in the
                     prepayment speed  of the  Mortgage Loans  and  principal
                     distributions  thereon will  be  more likely  to deviate
                     from the described amounts.)

                     ((COMPANION) CERTIFICATES:   Because of the  application
                     of amounts  available for principal  distributions among
                     the  Class  (     ),  Class  (     )  and Class  (     )
                     Certificates  in   any  given   month,  first   to   the
                     (Scheduled) Certificates up to the described amounts and
                     then  to  the  (Companion)  Certificates,  the  rate  of
                     principal distributions and  the weighted average  lives
                     of  the  (Companion)  Certificates  will  be   extremely
                     sensitive  to changes  in  the prepayment  speed of  the
                     Mortgage  Loans.    The weighted  average  lives  of the
                     (Companion)  Certificates  will  be  significantly  more
                     sensitive to changes  in the prepayment speed  than that
                     of  the   (Scheduled)  Certificates   or  a   fractional
                     undivided interest in the Mortgage Loans.))

(Special Yield
  Considerations . .     The  yield to maturity  on each respective  class of
                         the Class (   ) Certificates will depend on the rate
                         and   timing   of  principal   payments   (including
                         prepayments,  defaults  and   liquidations)  on  the
                         Mortgage Loans  and the  allocation thereof  (and of
                         any  losses on  the Mortgage  Loans)  to reduce  the
                         Certificate Principal  Balance (or  Notional Amount)
                         of such class, as well  as other factors such as the
                         Pass-Through Rate (and any  adjustments thereto) and
                         the purchase price for such Certificates.  The yield
                         to  investors  on   any  class  of  Class  (       )
                         Certificates  will  be  adversely  affected  by  any
                         allocation thereto of prepayment interest shortfalls
                         on  the Mortgage Loans, which are expected to result
                         from the distribution  of interest only to  the date
                         of prepayment (rather than a  full month's interest)
                         in connection with prepayments in full, and the lack
                         of any distribution of interest on the amount of any
                         partial prepayments.

                     In general, if a Class (   ) Certificate is purchased at
                     a premium and principal distributions thereon occur at a
                     rate  faster than anticipated  at the time  of purchase,
                     the  investor's actual yield  to maturity will  be lower
                     than that assumed at  the time of purchase.  Conversely,
                     if a Class (   ) Certificate is purchased at  a discount
                     and  principal distributions  thereon  occur at  a  rate
                     slower than  that assumed at  the time of  purchase, the
                     investor's actual yield  to maturity will be  lower than
                     that originally anticipated.

                             The  Class (     ) Certificates  were structured
                             based on  a number  of assumptions, including  a
                             prepayment assumption  of ___% CPR  and weighted


                             average  lives  corresponding   thereto  as  set
                             forth    herein   under    "Special   Prepayment
                             Considerations."   The yield assumptions for the
                             respective classes of  Offered Certificates will
                             vary as determined at the time of sale.

                             (The  multiple  class structure  of  the  Senior
                             Certificates  causes   the  yields  of   certain

                             and other  factors, as  follows (to be  included

                             principal payments  on the Mortgage  Loans could
                             result  in  the  failure  of  investors  in  the

Certain Federal Income Tax
  Consequences . . . (An election will  be made to treat the  Trust Fund as a
                     real  estate mortgage  investment conduit  ("REMIC") for
                     federal  income tax purposes.   Upon the issuance of the
                     Class (  ) Certificates,  Brown &  Wood LLP or  Sidley &
                     Austin or Latham  & Watkins or Cadwalader,  Wickersham &
                     Taft, counsel to the Depositor, will deliver its opinion
                     generally to  the effect  that assuming compliance  with
                     all provisions of the  Pooling and Servicing  Agreement,
                     for federal  income tax  purposes, the  Trust Fund  will
                     qualify  as a REMIC under Sections  860A through 860G of
                     the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code").

             For federal income tax purposes, the Class ( ) Certificates  will
             be the sole  class of "residual  interests" in the REMIC  and the
             Class (  ), Class  ( )  and Class  ( )  Certificates will be  the
             "regular interests"  in the  REMIC and  will be  treated as  debt
             instruments of the REMIC.

             The Class (  ) Certificates  (may(will))(will not) be treated  as
             having  been issued  with  original  issue  discount for  federal
             income  tax purposes.   The  prepayment assumption  that  will be
             used  for purposes  of computing  the accrual  of original  issue
             discount,  market  discount  and  premium,  if  any,  for federal
             income tax purposes will  be equal to a constant prepayment  rate
             ("CPR") of  ____%.  However, no  representation is made that  the
             Mortgage Loans will prepay at that rate or at any other rate.)

Rating . . . It is a condition to  the issuance of the  Class ( ) Certificates
             that  they be rated (not lower than) "___"  by --------------.  A
             security rating  is not  a recommendation  to buy,  sell or  hold
             securities and  may be subject to  revision or withdrawal at  any
             time by  the assigning rating  organization.   A security  rating
             does not address the frequency  of prepayments (whether voluntary
             or involuntary)  of Mortgage Loans,  or the  corresponding effect
             on  yield   to  investors.    (The   rating  of  the  Class   ( )
             Certificates does  not address the  possibility that  the holders
             of  such Certificates  may fail  to fully  recover their  initial

                         whether  and   to  what   extent  the   Class  (   )
                         Certificates constitute legal  investments for them.

                                 RISK FACTORS
     (Description will depend on the particulars of the Mortgage Assets)

    Special Prepayment  Considerations.   The  rate and  timing of  principal
payments on the  Class ( ) Certificates  will depend, among other  things, on
the rate and  timing of principal payments  (including prepayments, defaults,
liquidations  and   purchases  of  Mortgage   Assets  due  to  a   breach  of
representation  and warranty)  on the  Mortgage Assets.   The  rate at  which
principal prepayments  occur  on the  Mortgage Loans  will be  affected by  a
variety of factors, including, without  limitation, the terms of the Mortgage
Loans, the level  of prevailing interest rates, the  availability of mortgage
credit and economic, demographic, geographic,  tax, legal and other  factors.
In general, however,  if prevailing interest  rates fall significantly  below
the Mortgage Rates on the Mortgage  Loans, such Mortgage Loans are likely  to
be  the subject  of higher  principal  prepayments than  if prevailing  rates
remain at  or above the  rates borne by  such Mortgage  Loans.  (The  rate of
principal payments on  the Class ( ) Certificates will correspond to the rate
of principal  payments on the Mortgage Loans and is  likely to be affected by
the  Lock-out Periods  and Prepayment  Premium Provisions  applicable  to the
Mortgage  Loans and by  the extent  to which the  Master Servicer is  able to
enforce  such provisions.    Mortgage  loans  with a  lock-out  period  or  a
prepayment premium  provision, to the extent enforceable,  generally would be
expected to experience  a lower rate of principal  prepayments than otherwise
identical  mortgage  loans  without such  provisions,  with  shorter lock-out
periods  or  with  lower  prepayment  premiums.)     (As  is  the  case  with
mortgage-backed securities generally, the Class ( ) Certificates  are subject
to substantial inherent cashflow uncertainties because the Mortgage Loans may
be prepaid at any time.)

    (As described  herein, prior to  reduction of  the Class  ( ) Balance  to
zero,  all principal  prepayments  on  and  other unscheduled  recoveries  of
principal  of  the  Mortgage Loans  will  be  allocated  to  the  Class  (  )
Certificates.    To the  extent  that  no  prepayments or  other  unscheduled
recoveries of principal are distributed on  the Subordinate Certificates, the
subordination  afforded  the  Class  (  )  Certificates  by  the  Subordinate
Certificates,  in the  absence of  offsetting  losses on  the Mortgage  Loans
allocated thereto, will be increased.)

     See  "Description of the Certificates  -- Distributions -- Priority" and
"Certain Yield,  Prepayment and  Maturity Considerations"  herein and  "Yield
Considerations" in the Prospectus.

    Special Yield Considerations.   The yield  to maturity on  the Class (  )
Certificates will  depend, among  other things,  on  the rate  and timing  of
principal  payments   (including  prepayments,  defaults,   liquidations  and
purchases of Mortgage  Loans due to a breach of  representation and warranty)
on the Mortgage  Loans and the allocation  thereof to reduce the  Certificate
Balance of such class.  (The yield to maturity on the Class  ( ) Certificates
will also  depend on  changes  in the  Index and  the effect  of any  maximum
lifetime  Mortgage Rate,  minimum  lifetime Mortgage  Rate,  Payment Cap  and
Periodic Rate Cap applicable to each Mortgage Loan.)  The yield  to investors
on the Class  ( ) Certificates will  be adversely affected by  any allocation
thereto of  Prepayment Interest Shortfalls  on the Mortgage Loans,  which are
expected to  result from  the distribution of  interest only  to the  date of
prepayment  (rather  than   a  full  month's  interest)  in  connection  with
prepayments  in full,  and the lack  of any  distribution of interest  on the
amount of any partial prepayments.  Neither the Certificates not the Mortgage
Loans are guaranteed by any governmental entity or private insurer.

    In general,  if a Certificate  is purchased  at a  premium and  principal
distributions thereon occur at a rate faster  than anticipated at the time of
purchase, the investor's  actual yield  to maturity will  be lower than  that
assumed at  the time of purchase.  Conversely,  if a Certificate is purchased
at a discount and principal distributions thereon occur at a rate slower than
that assumed at the time of purchase, the investor's actual yield to maturity
will be lower than assumed at the time of purchase.

    See  "Certain  Federal  Income  Tax  Consequences"  herein  and   in  the
Prospectus and "Yield Considerations" in the Prospectus.

    (Risks  Associated  with Certain  of  the  Mortgage Loans  and  Mortgaged
Properties.)  (Description  of type of property, lease  provisions, nature of
tenants and operating income.)

     (Because  the Mortgage  Loans are  adjustable rate  mortgage  loans, the
Mortgage Rates and Monthly  Payments will increase in a  rising interest rate
environment, perhaps without a corresponding increase in  the mortgagors' net
operating income.   In such event,  as the Debt  Service Coverage Ratios  (as
defined  herein) for  such Mortgage  Loans decrease, the  related mortgagor's
ability to  make Monthly Payments  may be impaired,  and a  mortgagor payment
default would be more likely to occur.)

    Effect of Mortgagor  Defaults.  The aggregate amount of  distributions on
the Class  (  )  Certificates,  the  yield to  maturity  of  the  Class  (  )
Certificates,  the rate of  principal payments on the  Class ( ) Certificates
and  the weighted average life of the Class ( ) Certificates will be affected
by the rate  and the  timing of  delinquencies and defaults  on the  Mortgage
Loans.  If a purchaser of a Class ( ) Certificate  calculates its anticipated
yield  based  on an  assumed  rate of  default and  amount  of losses  on the
Mortgage Loans  that is  lower than  the default  rate and  amount of  losses
actually experienced and  such additional losses are allocable  to such class
of Certificates, such purchaser's actual yield to maturity will be lower than
that so calculated  and could, under certain extreme  scenarios, be negative.
The timing of any  loss on a  liquidated Mortgage Loan  will also affect  the
actual yield to maturity of the Class ( ) Certificates  to which a portion of
such loss  is allocable, even if the rate of  defaults and severity of losses
are consistent with  an investor's expectations.   In general, the  earlier a
loss  borne  by an  investor  occurs,  the  greater  is the  effect  on  such
investor's yield to maturity.

    As  and  to the  extent described  herein,  the Master  Servicer  will be
entitled  to receive  interest  on  unreimbursed  Advances  and  unreimbursed
servicing expenses  that (i)  are recovered out  of amounts  received on  the
Mortgage Loan as to which such Advances were made or such  servicing expenses
were  incurred,  which amounts  are  in  the  form of  liquidation  proceeds,
insurance proceeds,  condemnation proceeds or amounts paid in connection with
the  purchase  of  such Mortgage  Loan  out of  the  Trust Fund  or  (ii) are
determined to  be nonrecoverable  Advances.  The  Master Servicer's  right to
receive   such  payments   of   interest   are  prior   to   the  rights   of
Certificateholders  to   receive  distributions  on  the   Certificates  and,
consequently,  may  result  in  losses  being allocated  to  the  Class  (  )
Certificates that  would not  otherwise have resulted  absent the  accrual of
such interest.

    Even if losses on the Mortgage Loans are not  borne by an investor in the
Class ( ) Certificates, such losses may affect the weighted average  life and
yield to  maturity of such investor's  Certificates.  Losses on  the Mortgage
Loans, to the extent not  allocated to the Class ( ) Certificates, may result
in a higher percentage ownership interest evidenced by such Certificates than
would otherwise have resulted absent such loss.  The consequent effect on the
weighted average  life and yield  to maturity of  the Class (  ) Certificates
will depend upon the characteristics of the remaining Mortgage Loans.

    Regardless  of  whether  losses  ultimately   result,  delinquencies  and
defaults  on  the Mortgage  Loans  may  significantly  delay the  receipt  of
payments  by the  holder of  a  Class (  )  Certificate, to  the extent  that
Advances or the subordination of another class of Certificates does not fully
offset  the effects  of  any  such delinquency  or  default.   The  Scheduled
Principal  Distribution Amount  and  the  Unscheduled Principal  Distribution
Amount generally consist of, as more fully described herein, principal of the
Mortgage Loans actually collected  or advanced.  The Master  Servicer has the
ability to  extend and modify  Mortgage Loans that  are in  default or as  to
which a payment default is imminent, including the ability to extend the date
on which a  Balloon Payment is  due by up  to __ months,  subject to  certain
conditions  described in  the Pooling  and Servicing  Agreement.   The Master
Servicer's obligation to  make Advances in respect of a Mortgage Loan that is
delinquent  as to  its Balloon  Payment is  limited,  however, to  the extent
described under  "Description of the  Certificates -- Advances".   Until such
time as  any Mortgage Loan  delinquent in respect  of its Balloon  Payment is
liquidated, the entitlement of the holders of Class ( ) Certificates  on each
Distribution Date  in respect  of  principal of  such Mortgage  Loan will  be
limited  to the Class ( ) Scheduled Principal Distribution Percentage of that
portion  of the Available  Distribution Amount that  represents the principal
portion of (i) any payment made by  the related mortgagor under a forbearance
arrangement  or  (ii)  any  related  Advance made  by  the  Master  Servicer.
Consequently, any delay in the receipt of a Balloon Payment that  is payable,
in whole  or in part,  to holders of Class  ( ) Certificates  will extend the
weighted average life of the Class ( ) Certificates.

    As  described under  "Description of  the Certificates  -- Distributions"
herein,  if the  portion of  Available Distribution  Amount distributable  in
respect of interest on the Class ( ) Certificates on any Distribution Date is
less than the Distributable Certificate Interest then payable for such class,
the shortfall will  be distributable to holders of such class of Certificates
on subsequent Distribution Dates, to the extent of available funds.  Any such
shortfall will  not bear  interest and will  therefore negatively  affect the
yield  to maturity  of  such class  of  Certificates for  so  long as  it  is
outstanding.

(The following paragraphs will be included  in the event any of the  Mortgage
Loans are acquired from the Resolution Trust Corporation:)

    (Troubled Originators.  The Mortgage  Loans were originated or  purchased
by the  (Originating  Institutions),  each of  which  is subject  to  an  RTC
receivership.  It is possible  that the financial difficulties experienced by
the (Originating Institutions) may have  adversely affected either or both of
(i) the standards  and procedures pursuant to  which the Mortgage Loans  were
originated  or  purchased by  such  (Originating Institutions)  and  (ii) the
manner in which such Mortgage Loans have been serviced prior to assumption of
servicing responsibilities by  the Master Servicer.  The  Mortgage Loans will
be acquired by the Depositor  on or before the Closing Date from the Mortgage
Asset Seller, which  acquired the Mortgage Loans from the RTC in its capacity
as  receiver of each  of the  associations pursuant  to a  certain commercial
mortgage loan sale agreement, dated ______, 199_ (as amended, the  "Loan Sale
Agreement").  Pursuant to the Loan Sale Agreement, the RTC as receiver of the
(Originating Institutions),  has made certain representations  and warranties
regarding  the Mortgage  Loans  and is  obligated to  cure  such breaches  or
repurchase  those Mortgage  Loans  as to  which  there is  a  breach of  such
representations and  warranties.  The  RTC repurchase price for  the Mortgage
Loans is par plus  accrued interest at  the related Mortgage Rate(,except  in
the case of --------- Mortgage Loans as to which a repurchase for a breach of
the representation  and warranty  relating to  certain environmental  matters
would be accomplished  at a price that initially is  discounted but increases
to par over approximately __ years).  See "Description of the Mortgage Pool -
- - Representations  and Warranties  of the  Originating Institutions"  herein.
The RTC, acting in its corporate capacity, has guaranteed such obligations of
the RTC, acting in its capacity as receiver.  The agreement pursuant to which
such  guarantee  was  made by  the  RTC  is hereinafter  referred  to  as the
"Guarantee Agreement".)

    (Limited  Information.   The  information set  forth  in this  Prospectus
Supplement  with respect  to the  Mortgage Loans  is  derived from  books and
records of the (Originating Institutions), as well as a limited review of the
credit  and  legal  files  relating  to the  Mortgage  Loans.    Accordingly,
available information  does not permit  the Depositor to determine  fully the
origination, credit appraisal  and underwriting practices of  the originators
of  the Mortgage  Loans.   Furthermore, it is  possible that  this Prospectus
Supplement does not contain material information regarding the Mortgage Loans
that  would  have been  disclosed  if  the  structure  and personnel  of  the
(Originating Institutions) had not been affected by  such institutions having

review of the records and files  related to the Mortgage Loans in  connection
with  the issuance of the Class (  ) Certificates the Mortgage Loans have not
been  "re-underwritten"  or  subjected  to  the type  of  review  that  would
typically be made in respect of a newly originated mortgage loan.))

"Mortgage Note") and  secured by a mortgage,  deed of trust or  other similar
security instrument  (a "Mortgage" creating  a (first)(junior) fee lien  on a
(multifamily)(commercial) property (a  "Mortgaged Property").  The  Mortgaged
Properties consist of  (description of commercial or  multifamily residential
properties).   (Because no evaluation  of any mortgagor's financial condition
has been conducted, investors should consider all of the Mortgage Loans to be
non-recourse loans so  that, in the event of mortgagor  default, recourse may
be had only  against the specific property  and such limited other  assets as
have been pledged  to secure a Mortgage Loan, and not against the mortgagor's
other  assets.)  All percentages  of the Mortgage  Loans described herein are
approximate  percentages  (except  as   otherwise  indicated)  by   aggregate
principal balance as of the Cut-off Date.)

    (The  Mortgage Loans  to be  included in  the Trust  Fund will  have been
originated or acquired by ________________  (the "Mortgage Asset Seller") and
will comply with  the underwriting criteria described herein.   The Depositor
will  purchase the Mortgage Loans  to be included in  the Mortgage Pool on or
before the Closing Date from the Mortgage Asset Seller pursuant to a seller's
agreement (the "Seller's Agreement"), to be dated as of   ____________,  199_
between  the Mortgage  Asset Seller and  the Depositor.   The  Depositor will
cause   the  Mortgage  Loans  in   the  Mortgage  Pool   to  be  assigned  to
_______________, as Trustee, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
_____________, in its capacity as  Master Servicer, will service the Mortgage

(THE INDEX

    As  of  any  Payment  Adjustment  Date,   the  Index  applicable  to  the
determination of the related Mortgage Rate will be a per annum rate equal  to
______________, as most recently available as of the date ---- days  prior to
the Payment Adjustment Date (the  "Index").  Such average yields  reflect the
yields for  the week prior to that week in which the information is reported.
In the  event that  the Index  is no  longer available,  an index  reasonably
acceptable  to the Trustee  that is based  on comparable  information will be
selected by the Master Servicer.

    The  Index  is  currently calculated  based  on  information reported  in
___________.  Listed  below are the weekly average yields  on actively traded
______________ as reported in  ____________ on the date that would  have been
applicable to  mortgage loans having  the following adjustment dates  for the
indicated years.   Such average yields may fluctuate  significantly from week
to week as well as over longer periods  and may not increase or decrease in a
constant pattern from period to period.  The following does not purport to be
representative of future average yields.  No assurance can be given as to the
average  yields on  such _______________  on any  Payment Adjustment  Date or

CERTAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS

    (Approximately ___%  of the Mortgage  Loans have Due Dates  that occur on
the ___ day of each month; approximately ___% of the Mortgage Loans  have Due
Dates that occur on  the ___ day of  each month; approximately _____% of  the
Mortgage Loans  have Due Dates that occur  on the ___ day of  each month; and
the  remainder  of  the Mortgage  Loans  have  Due Dates  that  occur  on the
fifteenth day of each month.)

    (As  of  the   Cut-off  Date,  the  Mortgage  Loans  had   the  following
characteristics: (i) Mortgage Rates ranging from _____% per annum to _______%
per annum; (ii) a weighted average Mortgage  Rate of ______% per annum; (iii)
Gross Margins ranging from ____ basis  points to ______ basis points; (iv)  a
weighted average  Gross Margin of  ____ basis points; (v)  principal balances
ranging  from $_______  to  $______;  (vi) an  average  principal balance  of
$_________; (vii)  original terms to  scheduled maturity  ranging from  _____
months  to _________  months;  (viii)  a weighted  average  original term  to
scheduled  maturity  of _____  months;  (ix)  remaining  terms  to  scheduled
maturity  ranging from ____  months to _____  months; (x)  a weighted average
remaining term  to scheduled maturity  of ________ months; (xi)  Cut-off Date
Loan-to-Value  ("LTV")  Ratios ranging  from  ______% to  ________%;  (xii) a
weighted average Cut-off  Date LTV Ratio of _____%; (xiii) as to the _______%
of  the Mortgage  Loans to  which  such characteristic  applies, (A)  minimum
lifetime Mortgage Rates  ranging from ____% per  annum to ______ %  per annum
and (B)  a weighted average  minimum lifetime Mortgage  Rate of  _______% per
annum;  (xiv)  as   to  the__________%  of  Mortgage  Loans   to  which  such
characteristic  applies and  for which  it may  be currently  calculated, (A)
maximum lifetime Mortgage  Rate ranging from _______% per  annum to ________%
per  annum and  (B)  a weighted  average maximum  lifetime  Mortgage Rate  of
_________% per annum; (xv) Cut-off  Date Debt Service Coverage Ratios ranging
from ______% to _____% and (xvi) a weighted average Cut-off Date Debt Service
Coverage Ratio of _________%.)

    (___%  of  the Mortgage  Loans  provide  for Balloon  Payments  on  their
respective maturity  dates.  Loans  providing for Balloon Payments  involve a
greater degree  of risk than  self-amortizing loans.   See  "Risk Factors  --
Balloon Payments" in the Prospectus.)

    (The Mortgage  Rate on  each Mortgage  Loan is subject  to adjustment  on
each Interest Rate  Adjustment Date by adding the related Gross Margin to the
value of the Index (described  below) as most recently announced a  specified
number of days prior  to such Interest Rate Adjustment Date,  subject, in the
case of  substantially all  of the  Mortgage  Loans, to  minimum and  maximum
lifetime Mortgage Rates,  with ranges specified below.  The Mortgage Rates on
the Mortgage  Loans generally are  adjusted monthly; however, certain  of the
Mortgage Loans provide for Interest  Rate Adjustment Dates to occur quarterly
(___%  of the Mortgage Loans), semi-annually  (---% of the Mortgage Loans) or
annually (____% of the Mortgage Loans).   Each of the Mortgage Loans provided
for  an initial  fixed  interest  rate  period;  ----------  Mortgage  Loans,
representing ___%  of the  Mortgage Loans, have  not experienced  their first
Interest Rate Adjustment Dates.   The latest initial Interest Rate Adjustment
Date for any Mortgage Loan is to occur in -----------------------------------
- -----------------------------.)

    (Subject to the Payment Caps described  below, the amount of the  Monthly
Payment on each Mortgage Loan adjusts periodically on each Payment Adjustment
Date to an  amount that  would fully  amortize the principal  balance of  the
Mortgage Loan over its then  remaining amortization schedule and pay interest
at  the Mortgage Rate  in effect during  the one month  period preceding such
Payment Adjustment  Date.   Approximately __% of  the Mortgage  Loans provide
that  an  adjustment  of the  amount  of  the Monthly  Payment  on  a Payment
Adjustment Date may  not result in a  Monthly Payment that increases  by more
than ___% (nor, in some cases, decreases by more than ____%) of the amount of
the Monthly  Payment in effect  immediately prior to such  Payment Adjustment
Date  (each such  provision,  a  "Payment Cap");  however,  certain of  those
Mortgage Loans also  provide that the Payment  Cap will not apply  on certain
Payment Adjustment  Dates or if the  application thereof would result  in the
principal   balance  of  the   Mortgage  Loan  exceeding   (through  negative
amortization)  by a  specified  percentage  the  original  principal  balance
thereof.  Generally,  the related Mortgage Note provides that if, as a result
of negative  amortization, the respective  principal balance of  the Mortgage
Loan reaches an amount specified therein (which  as to most Mortgage Loans is
not  greater  than  _% of  the  Mortgage  Loan principal  balance  as  of the
origination date thereof), the amount  of the Monthly Payments due thereunder
will be increased as necessary to prevent further negative amortization.

    (Only  in  the case  of  _____%  of the  Mortgage  Loans  does a  Payment
Adjustment Date immediately follow each Interest  Rate Adjustment Date.  As a
result, and because application of Payment Caps may limit the amount by which
the  Monthly Payments due  on certain of  the Mortgage Loans  may adjust, the
amount of a Monthly Payment may be more or less  than the amount necessary to
amortize  the  Mortgage  Loan  principal  balance  over  the  then  remaining
amortization schedule at the applicable Mortgage Rate.  Accordingly, Mortgage
Loans may be subject  to slower amortization (if the Monthly Payment due on a
Due Date  is  sufficient to  pay interest  accrued to  such Due  Date at  the
applicable  Mortgage  Rate but  is  not  sufficient  to reduce  principal  in
accordance   with  the   applicable  amortization   schedule),  to   negative
amortization (if interest  accrued to a Due  Date at the  applicable Mortgage
Rate is greater than  the entire Monthly Payment due on such  Due Date) or to
accelerated amortization (if the Monthly Payment due on a Due Date is greater
than the  amount necessary to  pay interest accrued  to such Due  Date at the
applicable  Mortgage Rate  and to  reduce  principal in  accordance with  the
applicable amortization schedule).)

    (No  Mortgage Loan  currently  prohibits principal  prepayments; however,
certain  of  the  Mortgage  Loans  impose  fees  or  penalties   ("Prepayment
Premiums")  in  connection  with  full  or  partial  prepayments.    Although
Prepayment  Premiums  are  payable  to  the  Master  Servicer  as  additional
servicing  compensation, the  Master Servicer  may waive  the payment  of any
Prepayment Premium  only in  connection with a  principal prepayment  that is
proposed to  be made  during the three  month period  prior to  the scheduled
maturity  of  the related  Mortgage  Loan,  or  under certain  other  limited
circumstances.)

     The  following table sets forth the range  of Original LTV Ratios of the
Mortgage  Loans.   An "Original  LTV  Ratio" is  a fraction,  expressed  as a
percentage, the numerator  of which  is the principal  balance of a  Mortgage
Loan  on the date  of its  origination, and the  denominator of  which is (in
general) the  lesser  of (i)  the appraised  value of  the related  Mortgaged
Property as  determined by an  appraisal thereof obtained in  connection with
the origination  of  such Mortgage  Loan and  (ii), the  sale  price of  such
Mortgaged  Property  at  the time  of  such  origination.   There  can  be no
assurance that the value (determined through  an appraisal or otherwise) of a
Mortgaged Property  determined after origination of the related Mortgage Loan
will  be equal to  or greater than  the value thereof  (determined through an
appraisal or otherwise) obtained  in connection with  the origination.  As  a
result, there  can be  no  assurance that  the  loan-to-value ratio  for  any
Mortgage Loan  determined at any  time following origination thereof  will be
lower than the  Original LTV Ratio, notwithstanding any positive amortization
of such Mortgage Loan.

    The following table sets forth  the range of Debt Service Coverage Ratios
for the Mortgage Loans.  The  "Debt Service Coverage Ratio" for any  Mortgage
Loan is  the ratio of Net Operating Income  produced by the related Mortgaged
Property  for the  period covered by  the annual  operating statement  to the
amounts  of principal, interest and  other sums due  under such Mortgage Loan
for the same  period.   "Net Operating Income"  is the rent  from all  leases
under  which the  tenants have  taken occupancy  at the  time of  calculation
(including only rents prior to expiration for those leases whose terms expire
within  one  year of  the  calculation  and  pass-through for  utilities  and
excluding  all  free  rent)  less  operating  expenses  (such  as  utilities,
administrative expenses,  repairs and  maintenance) and  less fixed  expenses
(such  as insurance, real  estate and other  taxes to be  paid by mortgagor).
The  annual  operating  statements  for  the  Mortgaged  Properties  used  in
preparing the following  table were obtained from  the respective mortgagors.
The information contained  therein was unaudited, and the  Depositor has made
no attempt to verify  its accuracy.  The last day  of the twelve-month period
covered by each such operating statement is set forth in Annex A with respect
to the  related Mortgage  Loan.   (Certain of  the Mortgaged  Properties have
relatively  short  operating  histories, and  such  performance  may be  less
indicative of future performance than in the case of a property with a stable
operating history  over  an extended  period  of time.    However, even  with
respect  to Mortgaged Properties  with longer operating  histories, operating
income  produced by Mortgaged Properties in the  past should not be construed
as indicative of  the future performance of any Mortgaged  Property.  (Annual
operating statements for any year  following 19__ could not be obtained  with
respect to  _______ of the  Mortgaged Properties and, consequently,  the Debt

UNDERWRITING STANDARDS

     All  of the  Mortgage  Loans were  originated  or acquired  by  _______,
generally in accordance with the underwriting criteria described herein.

     (Description of underwriting standards.)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

     The description in  this Prospectus Supplement of the Mortgage  Pool and
the Mortgaged Properties  is based upon the  Mortgage Pool as expected  to be
constituted at the close of business on the Cut-off Date, as adjusted for the
scheduled principal  payments  due on  or before  such date.    Prior to  the
issuance of the Class  ( ) Certificates, a Mortgage Loan may  be removed from
the  Mortgage Pool as a  result of incomplete  documentation or otherwise, if
the Depositor deems  such removal necessary or appropriate and may be prepaid
at any time.  A limited number of other mortgage loans may be included in the
Mortgage Pool prior  to the  issuance of  the Class (  ) Certificates  unless
including  such mortgage loans would materially  alter the characteristics of
the  Mortgage Pool  as described  herein.   The  Depositor believes  that the
information set forth herein will be representative of the characteristics of
the  Mortgage Pool  as it  will be  constituted  at the  time the  Class (  )
Certificates are issued, although the  range of Mortgage Rates and maturities
and certain other characteristics of the Mortgage Loans  in the Mortgage Pool
may vary.

    A  Current  Report on  Form 8-K  (the "Form  8-K")  will be  available to
purchasers of the Class ( ) Certificates and will be filed, together with the
Pooling  and Servicing Agreement, with the Securities and Exchange Commission
within fifteen days after the initial issuance of the Class ( ) Certificates.
In the event Mortgage Loans are removed from or added to the Mortgage Pool as
set forth in the preceding paragraph, such removal or addition will  be noted
in the Form 8-K.


                       DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES

GENERAL

    The Certificates  will be  issued pursuant to  the Pooling and  Servicing
Agreement and will consist of ____ classes to be designated as the  Class ( )
Certificates, the Class ( ) Certificates, the  Class ( ) Certificates and the
Class ( ) Certificates.  The Class ( ), Class ( ) and  Class ( ) Certificates
(the  "Subordinate  Certificates") will  be  subordinate  to  the Class  (  )
Certificates,  as  described  herein.    The Certificates  represent  in  the
aggregate the entire beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund consisting
of: (i)  the  Mortgage Loans  and  all payments  under  and proceeds  of  the
Mortgage  Loans received  after the  Cut-off Date  (exclusive of  payments of
principal and interest due on or before the Cut-off Date); (ii) any Mortgaged
Property acquired on behalf of the Trust Fund through foreclosure or  deed in
lieu of foreclosure  (upon acquisition, an "REO Property");  (iii) such funds
or assets as from time to  time are deposited in the Certificate  Account and
any  account  established  in  connection   with  REO  Properties  (the  "REO
Account"); and  (iv) the rights of the mortgagee under all insurance policies
with  respect to  the Mortgage Loans.   Only  the Class (  ) Certificates are
offered hereby.

    The Class  ( )  Certificates will have  an initial (Certificate  Balance)
(Notional Balance) of $__________.  The Class ( ) Certificates represent ___%
of the aggregate  principal balance of the  Mortgage Loans as of  the Cut-off
Date.  The Class ( ) Certificates will have an initial Certificate Balance of
$__________, representing  ___% of  the  aggregate principal  balance of  the
Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.   The Class ( ) Certificates will have
an  initial Certificate  Balance  of $__________,  representing  ___% of  the
aggregate principal balance  of the  Mortgage Loans as  of the Cut-off  Date.
The initial Certificate Balance of the Class ( ) Certificates will be (zero).
The Certificate Balance of any class of Certificates  outstanding at any time
represents  the maximum  amount which  the  holders thereof  are entitled  to
receive as  distributions allocable to  principal from the  cash flow on  the
Mortgage  Loans and  the other  assets  in the  Trust Fund.    The respective
Certificate Balances  of the Class ( ), Class (  ) and Class ( ) Certificates
(respectively,  the "Class ( )  Balance", "Class ( )  Balance" and "Class ( )
Balance") will in each case be (i) reduced by amounts actually distributed on
such  class  of  Certificates  that  are allocable  to  principal  and  ((ii)
increased by  amounts allocated to such  class of Certificates  in respect of
negative amortization  on the  Mortgage Loans  (Describe Notional  Balance.))
(The  Certificate  Balance of  the Class  (  ) Certificates  (the "Class  ( )
Balance")  will at any  time equal the aggregate  Stated Principal Balance of
the Mortgage Loans minus the sum of the  Class ( ) Balance, Class ( ) Balance
and Class ( ) Balance.)  The Stated Principal Balance of any Mortgage Loan at
any date  of determination will  equal (a) the  Cut-off Date Balance  of such
Mortgage Loan,  plus ((b)  any negative amortization  added to  the principal
balance  of such Mortgage Loan on any Due  Date after the Cut-off Date to and
including  the Due  Date in the  Due Period  for the most  recently preceding
Distribution Date), minus  (c) the sum of  (i) the principal portion  of each
Monthly Payment due  on such  Mortgage Loan  after the Cut-off  Date, to  the
extent received from  the mortgagor  or advanced by  the Master Servicer  and
distributed to holders of the Certificates before such date of determination,
(ii) all principal prepayments and other unscheduled collections of principal
received with respect  to such Mortgage  Loan, to the  extent distributed  to
holders  of the Certificates before such date of determination, and (iii) any
reduction  in  the  outstanding  principal  balance  of  such  Mortgage  Loan
resulting out of a bankruptcy proceeding for the related mortgagor.

    (None of the Class ( ) Certificates are offered hereby.)

DISTRIBUTIONS

    Method, Timing  and Amount.   Distributions on  the Certificates will  be
made on the  ____ day of each  month or, if such  ____ day is not  a business
day,   then   on   the   next   succeeding  business   day,   commencing   in
____________________  199_   (each,  a  "   Distribution  Date"  )  .     All
distributions (other than the final  distribution on any Certificate) will be
made by the  Master Servicer to the  persons in whose names  the Certificates
are  registered at the close  of business on each Record  Date, which will be
the (last business day of the month) preceding the month in which the related
Distribution Date occurs.   Such distributions will be  made by wire transfer
in   immediately  available   funds   to  the   account   specified  by   the
Certificateholder at  a bank  or other  entity having  appropriate facilities
therefor, if such  Certificateholder will have  provided the Master  Servicer
with wiring instructions no less than five business days prior to the related
Record Date and is the registered owner of Certificates the aggregate initial
principal amount of which is at  least $    , or otherwise by check mailed to
such Certificateholder.   The final  distribution on any Certificate  will be
made  in  like  manner,  but  only upon  presentment  or  surrender  of  such
Certificate at the location specified in the  notice to the holder thereof of
such final distribution.  All distributions  made with respect to a class  of
Certificates on each  Distribution Date will be allocated  pro rata among the
outstanding Certificates of such  class based on their  respective Percentage
Interests.  The Percentage Interest evidenced by any Class ( ) Certificate is
equal to the initial denomination thereof as of the Closing Date,  divided by
the initial Certificate  Balance for such class.   The aggregate distribution
to be  made on  the Certificates  on any  Distribution Date  shall equal  the
Available Distribution Amount.

    The "Available  Distribution  Amount" for  any  Distribution Date  is  an
amount  equal to (a) the sum of (i)  the amount on deposit in the Certificate
Account as of the close of  business on the related Determination Date,  (ii)
the aggregate  amount of any Advances made by  the Master Servicer in respect
of such Distribution  Date and  (iii) the aggregate  amount deposited by  the
Master Servicer  in the Certificate  Account in respect of  such Distribution
Date  in connection with  Prepayment Interest Shortfalls  incurred during the
related Due Period, net of (b) the portion of the amount  described in clause
(a)(i)  hereof  that  represents (i)  Monthly  Payments  due  on a  Due  Date
subsequent to the end of the related Due Period, (ii) any voluntary principal
prepayments and  other unscheduled recoveries on the  Mortgage Loans received
after the  end of  the related  Due Period  or (iii)  any amounts payable  or
reimbursable therefrom to any person.

    Priority.   On each  Distribution Date, the  Master Servicer shall  apply
amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account, to the extent of the Available
Distribution Amount,  first, to distributions  of interest to holders  of the
Class ( ) Certificates, in the amount equal  to all Distributable Certificate
Interest in respect of the Class ( ) Certificates for such  Distribution Date
and, to the extent not previously distributed, for all preceding Distribution
Dates  and second, to distributions of principal to  holders of the Class ( )
Certificates, in an amount, not  to exceed the sum of  the Class ( )  Balance
outstanding  immediately  prior  to such  Distribution  Date  (and any  Class
Negative  Amortization in  respect  of the  Class (  ) Certificates  for such
Distribution Date),  equal to the  sum of (A)  the then  Class ( )  Scheduled
Principal Distribution  Percentage  of the  Scheduled Principal  Distribution
Amount  for  such  Distribution  Date   and  (B)  the  Unscheduled  Principal
Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date.

    On  or  after  the  reduction of  the  Class  ( )  Balance  to  zero, the
Available Distribution  Amount will  be paid  solely to  the  holders of  the
Subordinate Certificates.

    Calculations of  Interest.  The  "Distributable Certificate  Interest" in
respect of the Class  ( ) Certificates  for any Distribution Date  represents
that portion of the Accrued Certificate Interest in respect of such  class of
Certificates for such Distribution Date that is net of such class's allocable
share  of (i)  the aggregate  portion of  any Prepayment  Interest Shortfalls
resulting from voluntary  principal prepayments on the  Mortgage Loans during
the related Due Period (that are not  covered by the application of servicing
compensation  of  the  Master  Servicer  for the  related  Due  Period  (such
uncovered  aggregate  portion,  as  to  such  Distribution  Date,)  the  "Net
Aggregate Prepayment  Interest Shortfall")(;  and (ii)  the aggregate of  any
negative amortization in  respect of the Mortgage Loans  for their respective
Due  Dates during  the  related Due  Period (the  aggregate of  such negative
amortization, as  to such  Distribution  Date, the  "Aggregate Mortgage  Loan
Negative Amortization").)

    The  "Accrued  Certificate  Interest"  in  respect   of  the  Class  (  )
Certificates  for any  Distribution Date  is equal  to thirty  days' interest
accrued during the  related Interest Accrual Period at  the Pass-Through Rate
applicable to such  class of Certificates for such  Distribution Date accrued
on  the  related   (Certificate  Balance)  (Classes  (   )  Notional  Amount)
outstanding  immediately prior to  such Distribution Date.   The Pass-Through
Rate applicable to the  Class ( ) Certificates for any  Distribution Date (is
fixed and is set forth on the cover hereof)  (will equal the weighted average
of the Class ( ) Remittance Rates in effect for the Mortgage Assets as of the
commencement  of the  related Due Period  (as to such  Distribution Date, the
"Weighted Average  Class ( )  Remittance Rate").   The "Class (  ) Remittance
Rate"  in effect for any  Mortgage Loan as  of any date  of determination (a)
prior to its  first Interest Rate  Adjustment Date, is  equal to the  related
Mortgage Rate then  in effect minus ---- basis points and  (b) from and after
its first  Interest Rate Adjustment  Date, is equal  to the related  Mortgage
Rate  then in effect minus  the excess of the  related Gross Margin over ----
basis points.   The  "Interest Accrual  Period" for  the Certificates  is the
calendar month  preceding the month  in which the Distribution  Date occurs.)
(is equal to the  excess of the Mortgage Rate thereon  over ____% per annum.)
(The Class ( ) Notional Amount will equal  the (sum of the Class ( ) Balance.
The Class ( ) Notional Amount does not entitle the Class ( )  Certificate (or
a component thereof) to any distribution of principal.)

    The portion  of  Net Aggregate  Prepayment  Interest Shortfall  (and  the
Aggregate Mortgage Loan Negative Amortization) for any Distribution Date that
will be  allocated to the  Class ( )  Certificates on such  Distribution Date
will  be  equal  to  the  then  applicable  Class  (  )  Interest  Allocation
Percentage.    The  "Class  (  )  Interest  Allocation  Percentage"  for  any
Distribution  Date will  equal a  fraction,  expressed as  a percentage,  the
numerator of which is equal to the product of (a) the Class ( ) Balance ((net
of  any  Uncovered Portion  thereof)) outstanding  immediately prior  to such
Distribution Date, multiplied  by (b) the Pass-Through Rate for the Class ( )
Certificates for such Distribution  Date, and the denominator of which is the
product of (x)  the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of  the Mortgage Loans
outstanding immediately  prior to such  Distribution Date, multiplied  by (y)
the Weighted Average Net Mortgage Rate for such Distribution Date.   The "Net
Mortgage  Rate"  in  effect  for  any  Mortgage   Loan  as  of  any  date  of
determination is equal to the related Mortgage Rate then in effect minus ----
basis points.  (The  "Uncovered Portion" of the Class ( )  Balance, as of any
date of  determination, is  the portion thereof  representing the  excess, if
any, of (a) the  Class ( ) Balance then  outstanding, over (b) the  aggregate
Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans then outstanding.)

    (The  Class  ( )  Certificates  (or a  component  thereof)  will  not  be
entitled to distributions of interest and will not have a Pass-Through Rate.)

    Calculations of Principal.   Holders of  the Class ( )  Certificates will
be  entitled to  receive on  each  Distribution Date,  to the  extent  of the
balance of the  Available Distribution Amount remaining after  the payment of
the Class  ( )  Interest Distribution  Amount for  such Distribution  Date an
amount equal to the Class ( )  Principal Distribution Amount.  The "Class ( )
Principal Distribution Amount"  for any Distribution Date will  equal the sum
of  (i) the product  of the Scheduled  Principal Distribution Amount  and the
Class (  ) Scheduled Principal  Distribution Percentage, (ii) the  product of
the  Senior Accelerated  Percentage and  all  principal prepayments  received
during  the related  Due  Period  and, (iii)  to  the  extent not  previously
advanced,  (the lesser  of the  Class  ( )  Scheduled Principal  Distribution
Percentage  of the  Stated Principal Balance  of the  Mortgage Loans  and the
Senior  Accelerated  Percentage  of  the  Unscheduled  Principal Distribution
Amount  net of any  prepayment amounts described  in clause (ii)  above.  The
"Scheduled Principal Distribution  Amount" for any Distribution Date is equal
to the aggregate of the principal portions of all Monthly Payments, including
Balloon Payments, due during or, if and to the extent not previously received
or advanced and distributed to Certificateholders on a preceding Distribution
Date, prior to the related Due Period, in each case to the extent paid by the
related mortgagor  or advanced  by the  Master Servicer  and included in  the
Available  Distribution  Amount for  such Distribution  Date.   The principal
portion  of any Advances in  respect of a Mortgage  Loan delinquent as to its
Balloon Payment will constitute advances  in respect of the principal portion
of such Balloon Payment.

    (The portion  of the Class (  ) Principal Distribution Amount  payable on
any Distribution Date  shall be allocated  to the  Class ( ) Certificates  as
follows:  (Describe  distributions which may be concurrent  or sequential and
among different classes and may be  based on a schedule of payments sometimes
referred to as a Schedule of PAC, TAC  or Scheduled Balances for some and not
other classes.))

    (The Class  (  )  Scheduled Principal  Distribution  Percentage  for  any
Distribution  Date  represents   the  portion  of  the   Scheduled  Principal
Distribution  Amount  for such  Distribution  Date  payable  (subject to  the
payment  priorities described  herein) on  the Class  ( ) Certificates.   The
"Class ( ) Scheduled Principal  Distribution Percentage" for any Distribution
Date will  equal the lesser of  (a) 100% and  (b) a fraction, expressed  as a
percentage,  the numerator  of  which is  the Class  ( )  Balance outstanding
immediately prior to such Distribution Date, and the denominator of which  is
the lesser of (i) the sum of the Class ( ) Balance, the Class ( ) Balance and
the Class ( ) Balance and (ii) the aggregate  Stated Principal Balance of the
Mortgage  Loans,  in  either  case  outstanding  immediately  prior  to  such
Distribution Date.)

    The  "Unscheduled Principal  Distribution  Amount"  for any  Distribution
Date is  equal  to the  sum  of:   (a)  all voluntary  principal  prepayments
received on the  Mortgage Loans during  the related Due  Period; and (b)  the
excess, if any,  of (i) all unscheduled  recoveries received on the  Mortgage
Loans  during the  related  Due Period,  whether in  the form  of liquidation
proceeds,  condemnation proceeds,  insurance  proceeds  or  amounts  paid  in
connection with  the  purchase of  a Mortgage  Loan out  of  the Trust  Fund,
exclusive in each case of any portion thereof payable or reimbursable  to the
Master Servicer in  connection with the related Mortgage Loan,  over (ii) the
respective portions of the net amounts described in the immediately preceding
clause (i)  needed to cover interest (at the  applicable Net Mortgage Rate in
effect from time to time) on the related Mortgage Loan from the date to which
interest  was previously  paid or  advanced  through the  Due  Date for  such
Mortgage Loan in  the related Due Period  ((exclusive of any portion  of such
interest added to  the principal balance  of such  Mortgage Loan as  negative
amortization).)

    (The  "Class  Negative   Amortization"  in  respect   of  any  class   of
Certificates  for any  Distribution Date  is equal  to such  class' allocable
share  of  the  Aggregate  Mortgage  Loan  Negative   Amortization  for  such
Distribution Date.)

SUBORDINATION

     In  order to  maximize the  likelihood of  distribution in  full of  the
Class ( ) Interest Distribution Amount and the Class ( )  Scheduled Principal
Distribution Amount,  on each Distribution  Date, holders  of the  Class (  )
Certificates  have a  right to  distributions of  the Available  Distribution
Amount  that  is  prior to  the  rights  of the  holders  of  the Subordinate
Certificates,  to  the  extent  necessary  to  satisfy  the  Class   Interest
Distribution  Amount  and  the Class  (  )  Scheduled  Principal Distribution
Amount.

    (The entitlement to the Class  ( ) Certificates of the (entire) (a larger
percentage under certain circumstances of) Unscheduled Principal Distribution
Amount  will  accelerate the  amortization  of  the  Class (  )  Certificates
relative to the actual amortization of the Mortgage Loans.)

     (To the  extent that  the Class (  ) Certificates  are amortized  faster
than  the Mortgage Loans, without taking into  account losses on the Mortgage
Loans, the percentage interest evidenced by the Class ( ) Certificates in the
Trust Fund will be decreased  (with a corresponding increase in the  interest
in the  Trust  Fund  evidenced  by  the  Subordinate  Certificates),  thereby
increasing,   relative  to   their  respective   Certificate   Balances,  the
Subordinate --------- afforded the Class  ( ) Certificates by the Subordinate
Certificates.)

    (The principal portion of any Realized Losses will be allocated  first in
reduction of the  Subordinate Certificates (in the order  specified here) and
then to the Class ( ) Certificates (in the order specified here).  Any losses
realized on a Mortgage Loan that is finally liquidated equal to the excess of
the Stated  Principal Balance of such  Mortgage Loan remaining, if  any, plus
interest thereon through  the last day  of the month  in which such  Mortgage
Loan was finally  liquidated, after application of all  amounts received (net
of  amounts reimbursable  to the  Master  Servicer, any  Sub-Servicer or  any
Special  Servicer for  Advances  and  expenses,  including  attorneys'  fees)
towards interest  and principal owing  on the  Mortgage Loan, is  referred to
herein as a "Realized Loss.")

ADVANCES

     On the business  day immediately preceding  each Distribution Date,  the
Master Servicer will  be obligated to make advances (each,  an "Advance") out
of its  own funds,  or funds  held in  the Certificate  Account that  are not
required  to  be   part  of  the  Available  Distribution   Amount  for  such
Distribution Date,  in an amount  equal to the  aggregate of (i)  all Monthly
Payments (net of  the Servicing Fee), other than Balloon Payments, which were
due on the Mortgage Loans during the related Due Period and delinquent as  of
the related  Determination Date and  (ii) in the  case of each  Mortgage Loan
delinquent in respect of its Balloon Payment as of  the related Determination
Date, an amount sufficient  to amortize fully  the principal portion of  such
Balloon Payment  over the remaining  amortization term of such  Mortgage Loan
and to pay interest at the Net Mortgage Rate in effect for such Mortgage Loan
for the  one month period preceding  its Due Date  in the related  Due Period
(but  only to the  extent that the  related mortgagor has not  made a payment
sufficient to  cover such amount  under any forbearance arrangement  that has
been included  in the  Available  Distribution Amount  for such  Distribution
Date).  The  Master Servicer's obligations to make Advances in respect of any
Mortgage Loan will continue through liquidation of such Mortgage Loan and out
of its own funds from  any amounts collected in respect of  the Mortgage Loan
as to which  such Advance  was made, whether  in the  form of late  payments,
insurance proceeds,  liquidation proceeds,  condemnation proceeds or  amounts
paid in  connection with the purchase of such Mortgage Loan.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Master Servicer will be obligated to make any Advance only
to the extent that it determines in its reasonable good faith  judgment that,
if  made,  would  be recoverable  out  of  general funds  on  deposit  in the
Certificate Account.  Any failure by  the Master Servicer to make an  Advance
as  required under  the Pooling  and Servicing  Agreement will  constitute an
event of default thereunder,  in which case the trustee will  be obligated to
make any  such  Advance, in  accordance with  the terms  of  the Pooling  and
Servicing Agreement.


            CERTAIN YIELD, PREPAYMENT AND MATURITY CONSIDERATIONS

     The yield to  maturity on the Class ( ) Certificates will be affected by
the  rate of  principal payments on  the Mortgage  Loans including,  for this
purpose,  prepayments,  which  may  include  amounts  received  by virtue  of
repurchase, condemnation, insurance or foreclosure.  The yield to maturity on
the  Class ( ) Certificates will also be  affected by the level of the Index.
The rate of  principal payments on the Class ( ) Certificates will correspond
to  the rate  of principal  payments (including  prepayments) on  the related
Mortgage Loans.

    (Description of factors  affecting yield, prepayment and maturity  of the
Mortgage Loans and  Class ( ) Certificates depending  upon characteristics of
the Mortgage Loans.)

WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE OF THE CLASS ( ) CERTIFICATES

    Weighted average life refers to the average amount of  time from the date
of issuance  of a security  until each dollar  of principal of  such security
will be repaid to  the investor.  The weighted average life of  the Class ( )
Certificates  will be  influenced by  the  rate at  which principal  payments
(including  scheduled  payments,  principal  prepayments  and  payments  made
pursuant to any  applicable policies of insurance) on the  Mortgage Loans are
made.    Principal payments  on the  Mortgage  Loans may  be  in the  form of
scheduled  amortization   or  prepayments   (for  this   purpose,  the   term
"prepayment" includes prepayments and liquidations  due to a default or other
dispositions of the Mortgage Loans).

    The table of  Percent of Initial Certificate Balance Outstanding  for the
Class ( ) Certificates  at the respective percentages of CPR  set forth below
indicates the weighted  average life of such Certificates  and sets forth the
percentage of the initial principal amount of such Certificates that would be
outstanding after each  of the  dates shown at  the indicated percentages  of
CPR.  The table  has been prepared on the basis of  the following assumptions
regarding the  characteristics  of the  Mortgage  Loans: (i)  an  outstanding
principal balance of $_________, a  remaining amortization term of ___ months
and a term to balloon of ___ months: (ii) an interest rate equal to ____% per
annum until the ---- Due  Date and thereafter an interest rate  equal to ---%
per annum (at  an assumed  Index of  ____%) and Monthly  Payments that  would
fully amortize the remaining balance of the  Mortgage Loan over its remaining
amortization  term;  (iii)  the  Mortgage   Loans  prepay  at  the  indicated
percentage of CPR;  (iv) the maturity  date of each  of the Balloon  Mortgage
Loans is not  extended; (v) distributions on  the Class ( )  Certificates are
received in cash, on  the 25th day of each month, commencing in_____________;
(vi) no defaults or delinquencies in, or modifications, waivers or amendments
respecting,  the payment by  the mortgagors of principal  and interest on the
Mortgage Loans occur; (vii) the initial Certificate Balance of the Class  ( )
Certificates is $________;  (viii) prepayments represent  payment in full  of
individual Mortgage Loans  and are received on  the respective Due  Dates and
include 30 days' interest thereon; (ix)  there are no repurchases of Mortgage
Loans due to  breaches of any representation  and warranty or otherwise;  (x)
the Class (  ) Certificates are purchased on ________; (xi) the Servicing Fee
is ____% per annum; and (xii) the Index on each Interest Rate Adjustment Date
is ________% per annum.

    Based on  the  foregoing assumptions,  the table  indicates the  weighted
average life of the Class ( ) Certificates and sets forth the  percentages of
the initial Certificate Balance of the  Class ( ) Certificates that would  be
outstanding after the Distribution  Date in ___________ of each  of the years
indicated,  at  various  percentages  of  CPR.   Neither  CPR  nor  any other
prepayment model  or assumption  purports to be  a historical  description of
prepayment experience or  a prediction of the anticipated  rate of prepayment
of any pool of  mortgage loans, including the Mortgage Loans  included in the
Mortgage  Pool.   Variations  in  the actual  prepayment  experience and  the
balance of  the Mortgage  Loans  that prepay  may  increase or  decrease  the
percentage of  initial Certificate Balance (and weighted  average life) shown
in the  following  table.   Such variations  may occur  even  if the  average
prepayment experience  of all such Mortgage  Loans is the same as  any of the
specified assumptions.

Weighted Average Life
 (Years) (+) . . . . . . . . . . . .

+   The weighted average life of the Class ( )  Certificates is determined by
    (i)  multiplying the  amount of  each  distribution of  principal by  the
    number  of years from  the date of  issuance to  the related Distribution
    Date, (ii) adding  the results and  (iii) dividing the  sum by the  total

____________________
(1)  Includes bankruptcies which preclude foreclosure.

    There  can  be   no  assurance  that  the   delinquency  and  foreclosure
experience of the Mortgage Loans comprising the Mortgage Pool will correspond
to  the  delinquency and  foreclosure  experience  of the  Master  Servicer's
mortgage  portfolio  set  forth  in  the foregoing  tables.    The  aggregate
delinquency  and foreclosure experience on the  Mortgage Loans comprising the
Mortgage  Pool will  depend on  the  results obtained  over the  life  of the
Mortgage Pool.

(SPECIAL SERVICERS

    The  Master Servicer is permitted, at  its own expense, to utilize agents
or  attorneys in  performing any  of  its obligations  under the  Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, but will not thereby be relieved of any such obligation,
and will  be responsible  for the acts  and omissions  of any such  agents or
attorneys.

    The  Master   Servicer  currently   intends  to   engage  (_____________)
("__________"), a _____________ corporation, as its agent to perform  certain
servicing functions  primarily related to  property inspections,  foreclosure
and  the  operation  and sale  of  REO  Property.   See  "Description  of the
Agreements  --  Realization Upon  Defaulted Whole  Loans" in  the Prospectus.
____________________________      is      (describe      organization)     of
(multifamily)(commercial)  properties  and  has extensive  experience  in the
(describe relevant experience) of (multifamily) (commercial) properties.)

CERTIFICATE ACCOUNT

    The  Master Servicer is required to deposit  on a daily basis all amounts
received with respect to the Mortgage Loans of the  Mortgage Pool, net of its
servicing compensation, into  a separate Certificate Account  maintained with
____________.   Interest or other income  earned on funds in  the Certificate
Account  will  be  paid  to  the  Master  Servicer  as  additional  servicing
compensation.   See "Description of  the Trust Funds --  Mortgage Assets" and
"Description of  the Agreements --  Certificate Account and  Other Collection
Accounts" in the Prospectus.

SERVICING AND OTHER COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES
(Include description of Servicing Standard)
 ----------------------------------

    The principal compensation to be paid  to the Master Servicer in  respect
of its master servicing activities will be  the Servicing Fee.  The Servicing
Fee will be payable monthly only from amounts received in respect of interest
on each  Mortgage Loan,  will accrue at  the Servicing Fee  Rate and  will be
computed on  the basis of the same  principal amount and for  the same period
respecting  which any  related  interest  payment on  such  Mortgage Loan  is
computed.  The (weighted  average) Servicing Fee Rate  (with respect to  each
Mortgage Loan) equals ---% per annum.  (The principal compensation to be paid
to the Special Servicer in  respect of its special servicing activities  will
be the  Special Servicing  Fee.  The  Special Servicing  Fee will  be payable
monthly only from amounts  received in respect of interest  on each Specially
Serviced Mortgage  Loan, will  accrue at the  Special Servicing Fee  Rate and
will be  computed on  the basis of  the same  principal amount  for the  same
period respecting which any related interest payment on such Mortgage Loan is
computed.   The Special Servicing  Fee Rate  with respect  to each  Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loan  equals ___% per annum.) (As  further compensation for
its  servicing activities,  the Special  Servicer shall  also be  entitled to
receive  (i) the Liquidation Fee for the  procurement (directly or through an
agent  thereof) of  a  purchaser  in connection  with  the  liquidation of  a
Mortgaged  Property  securing any  defaulted  Mortgage Loan,  out  of related
liquidation proceeds, provided that the payment of such Liquidation Fee would
not be a violation of, and would not subject the Trustee or the Trust Fund to
liability under, any state or  local statute, regulation or other requirement
(including without limitation,  those governing the licensing  of real estate
brokers or salesmen),  and (ii)  the Management  Fee in  connection with  the
operation and management of  any REO Property, out of related  revenues.  Any
"Liquidation Fee" payable  to the Special Servicer  will be equal to  __% (if
the  relevant sale  occurs at  a foreclosure  sale,  trustee's sale  or other
similar proceeding) or __%  (if the relevant sale  occurs subsequent to  such
Mortgaged Property's  having become an  REO Property), as applicable,  of the
gross liquidation  proceeds.   The  "Management Fee"  in respect  of any  REO
Property is  payable to the Special Servicer  monthly and is equal  to __% of
the gross revenues derived from such REO Property.)

    As  additional servicing compensation, the Master Servicer is entitled to
retain all assumption fees, prepayment penalties and late payment charges, to
the extent  collected from  mortgagors, together with  any interest  or other
income  earned  on  funds held  in  the Certificate  Account  and  any escrow
accounts.   The  Servicing Standard  requires the  Master Servicer  to, among
other things, diligently service and  administer the Mortgage Loans on behalf
of  the Trustee  and in  the best  interests of  the Certificateholders,  but
without  regard to  the Master  Servicer's right  to receive  such additional
servicing  compensation.   The Master  Servicer is  obligated to  pay certain
ongoing expenses associated with the Mortgage Pool and incurred by the Master
Servicer in  connection with its  responsibilities under the Agreement.   See
"Description of the  Agreements -- Retained Interest;  Servicing Compensation
and Payment  of Expenses" in  the Prospectus for information  regarding other
possible  compensation payable  to  the Master  Servicer and  for information
regarding expenses  payable  by the  Master  Servicer (and  "Certain  Federal
Income Tax Consequences" herein regarding certain taxes payable by the Master
Servicer).

REPORTS TO CERTIFICATEHOLDERS

    On  each Distribution  Date the  Master  Servicer shall  furnish to  each
Certificateholder, to the  Depositor, to the Trustee and to the Rating Agency
a statement  setting forth certain  information with respect to  the Mortgage
Loans and  the Certificates  required pursuant to  the Pooling  and Servicing
Agreement.   In  addition,  within a  reasonable  period of  time after  each
calendar year, the  Master Servicer shall furnish  to each person who  at any
time during such  calendar year was the  holder of a Certificate  a statement
containing  certain information  with respect  to  the Certificates  required
pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, aggregated for such calendar
year or  portion thereof  during which such  person was  a Certificateholder.
See "Description of the Certificates -- Reports to Certificateholders" in the
Prospectus.

VOTING RIGHTS

    At all times  during the term of this Agreement,  the Voting Rights shall
be allocated  among the  Classes of Certificateholders  in proportion  to the
respective Certificate Balances  of their Certificates ((net, in  the case of
the Class ( ), Class ( ) and Class ( ) Certificates, of any Uncovered Portion
of the related Certificate Balance)).  Voting  Rights allocated to a class of
Certificateholders  shall  be  allocated  among  such  Certificateholders  in
proportion   to  the  Percentage  Interests  evidenced  by  their  respective
Certificates.

TERMINATION

    The  obligations created  by  the Pooling  and  Servicing Agreement  will
terminate  following  the  earliest  of   (i)  the  final  payment  or  other
liquidation of  the last Mortgage Loan  or REO Property  subject thereto, and
(ii) the  purchase of  all of  the assets  of the  Trust Fund  by the  Master
Servicer.    Written notice  of  termination  of  the Pooling  and  Servicing
Agreement will be given to each Certificateholder, and the final distribution
will be made  only upon surrender and cancellation of the Certificates at the
office of the Certificate Registrar  specified in such notice of termination.
In no event,  however, will the  trust created by  the Pooling and  Servicing
Agreement continue beyond  the expiration of 21  years from the death  of the
survivor of certain persons named in such Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

    Any such purchase by  the Master Servicer of  all the Mortgage Loans  and
other assets in the Trust Fund is required to be made at a price equal to the
greater of (1) the aggregate fair market value of  all the Mortgage Loans and
REO Properties then included in the Trust Fund, as mutually determined by the
Master Servicer and the Trustee, and (2) the excess of (a) the sum of (i) the
aggregate Purchase Price of all the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust
Fund and (ii)  the fair market value  of all REO Properties then  included in
the  Trust Fund, as  determined by an  appraiser mutually agreed  upon by the
Master Servicer and the Trustee, over (b) the aggregate of amounts payable or
reimbursable  to   the  Master  Servicer  under  the  Pooling  and  Servicing
Agreement.    Such  purchase  will   effect  early  retirement  of  the  then
outstanding Class ( )  Certificates, but the right of the  Master Servicer to
effect  such termination  is subject  to the  requirement that  the aggregate
Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans then in the Trust Fund is less
than  __% of the aggregate principal balance  of the Mortgage Loans as of the
Cut-off Date.  (In addition, the  Master Servicer may at its option  purchase
any  class or classes  of Class (  ) Certificates with  a Certificate Balance
less  than __%  of the  original balance  thereof at  a price  equal to  such
Certificate Balance plus accrued interest through _________.)

                               USE OF PROCEEDS

    The net proceeds from the sale of Class (  ) Certificates will be used by
the Depositor to pay the purchase price of the Mortgage Loans.


                   CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

    Upon the  issuance of the  Class (  ) Certificates, Brown  & Wood LLP  or
Sidley & Austin or Latham & Watkins or Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft, counsel
to the  Depositor, will deliver  its opinion  generally to  the effect  that,
assuming  compliance  with  all  provisions  of  the  Pooling  and  Servicing
Agreement, for federal income tax purposes, the Trust Fund will qualify  as a
REMIC under the Code.

    For federal income  tax purposes, the Class ( )  Certificates will be the
sole class of "residual interests" in the REMIC and the Class (  ), Class ( )
and Class  ( ) Certificates will be the "regular  interests" in the REMIC and
will be treated as debt instruments of the REMIC.

    See  "Certain  Federal   Income  Tax  Consequences  --  REMICS"   in  the
Prospectus.

    (The  Class ( )  Certificates (may)(will not)  be treated  as having been
issued  with  original  issue  discount  for  federal  income  tax  reporting
purposes.   The prepayment assumption  that will  be used in  determining the
rate of accrual of original  issue discount, market discount and premium,  if
any,  for federal income  tax purposes will  be based on  the assumption that
subsequent to the date of any determination the Mortgage Loans will prepay at
a rate  equal to ___% CPR.  No representation is made that the Mortgage Loans
will prepay at that  rate or at any other rate.   See "Certain Federal Income
Tax  Consequences  --   REMICS  --  Taxation  of  Owners   of  REMIC  Regular
Certificates" and "--Original Issue Discount" in the Prospectus.)

    The  Class  (  ) Certificates  may  be  treated  for  federal income  tax
purposes as having  been issued at a premium.   Whether any holder  of such a
class  of  Certificates  will  be  treated  as  holding  a  certificate  with
amortizable bond  premium will  depend on  such Certificateholder's  purchase
price and the distributions remaining to  be made on such Certificate at  the
time of its acquisition by such Certificateholder.  Holders of such  class of
Certificates should consult  their own tax advisors regarding the possibility
of making an  election to amortize such premium.  See "Certain Federal Income
Tax  Consequences  --   REMICS  --  Taxation  of  Owners   of  REMIC  Regular
Certificates" and "-- Premium" in the Prospectus.

    (The  Class  ( )  Certificates  will be  treated  as assets  described in
Section  7701(a)(19)(C) of  the Code)  and  "real estate  assets" within  the
meaning of Section 856(c)(4)(A) of the  Code generally in the same proportion
that the  assets  of the  REMIC  underlying  such Certificates  would  be  so
treated.)  (In addition, interest  (including original issue discount) on the
Class ( ) Certificates will be interests described in Section 856(c)(3)(B) of
the Code to the extent that such Class  ( ) Certificates are treated as "real
estate assets" under Section 856(c)(4)(A) of the Code.)  (Moreover, the Class
(  ) Certificates  will  be "obligation(s)  .   .   .   which  .   .   .(are)
principally secured  by an interest  in real property" within  the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(3)(C) of the  Code.) (The Class ( ) Certificates  will not be
considered to represent an interest in "loans .  .  .  secured by an interest
in real property"  within the  meaning of Section  7701 (a)(19)(C)(v) of  the
Code.)  See   "Certain  Federal   Income  Tax   Consequences  --  REMICS   --
Characterization of Investments in REMIC Certificates" in the Prospectus.

    For  further information regarding the federal income tax consequences of
investing  in the  Class (  ) Certificates,  see "Certain Federal  Income Tax
Consequences -- REMICS" in the Prospectus.


                             ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

    (A  fiduciary of any employee benefit plan  or other retirement plans and
arrangements, including  individual retirement accounts  and annuities, Keogh
plans  and  collective investment  funds  and separate  accounts  and certain
insurance  company   general  accounts  in  which  such  plans,  accounts  or
arrangements are invested, that is  subject to the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act  of 1974,  as amended  ("ERISA"), or  Section 4975  of the  Code
should  carefully review  with its  legal  advisors whether  the purchase  or
holding of  Class ( ) Certificates could  give rise to a  transaction that is
prohibited  or is not otherwise permitted  either under ERISA or Section 4975
of the Code.

    (The  U.S. Department of Labor issued an individual exemption, Prohibited
Transaction Exemption (90-24) (the "Exemption"),  (on May 17, 1990) to Morgan
Stanley & Co.  Incorporated, which generally exempts from  the application of
the prohibited transaction provisions of Section 406 of ERISA, and the excise
taxes imposed  on such prohibited  transactions pursuant to  Sections 4975(a)
and (b) of the Code and Section 501(i) of ERISA, certain  transactions, among
others, relating  to the servicing  and operation  of mortgage pools  and the
purchase, sale and holding of mortgage pass-through certificates underwritten
by an Underwriter (as hereinafter defined), provided  that certain conditions
set forth  in the  Exemption are  satisfied.   For purposes  of this  Section
"ERISA  Considerations",  the  term "Underwriter"  shall  include  (a) Morgan
Stanley &  Co. Incorporated, (b)  any person directly or  indirectly, through
one  or  more  intermediaries, controlling,  controlled  by  or under  common
control  with Morgan  Stanley & Co.  Incorporated and  (c) any member  of the
underwriting syndicate or selling group of which a person described in (a) or
(b) is a manager or co-manager with respect to the Class ( ) Certificates.

    The Exemption sets  forth six general conditions which must  be satisfied
for  a transaction involving the purchase, sale  and holding of the Class ( )
Certificates or a transaction in connection with the servicing, operation and
management of the Trust Fund to be eligible for exemptive relief  thereunder.
First, the  acquisition of  the Class  ( ) Certificates  by certain  employee
benefit plans subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code  (each, a "Plan"),
must be  on terms  (including the price  for such  Certificates) that  are at
least  as  favorable  to  the  Plan  as  they would  be  in  an  arm's-length
transaction  with an  unrelated  party.   Second,  the  rights and  interests
evidenced by the Class ( ) Certificates must not be subordinate to the rights
and interests evidenced by the other  certificates of the Trust with  respect
to the right to receive payment in  the event of default or delinquencies  in
the underlying assets of the Trust.  Third, the Class ( ) Certificates at the
time of acquisition  by the Plan  must be rated in  one of the  three highest
generic rating categories by Standard & Poor's Corporation, Moody's Investors
Service, Inc.,  Duff & Phelps Credit  Rating Co. or  Fitch Investors Service,
Inc.   Fourth,  the Trustee  cannot be  an  affiliate of  any  member of  the
"Restricted Group",  which consists of  any Underwriter,  the Depositor,  the
Asset Seller, the  Master Servicer, each sub-servicer and  any mortgagor with
respect  to  Mortgage  Loans  constituting  more than  5%  of  the  aggregate
unamortized principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the date of initial
issuance of the Class ( ) Certificates.   Fifth, the sum of all payments made
to and  retained by the Underwriter  must represent not more  than reasonable
compensation for underwriting  the Class  ( )  Certificates; the  sum of  all
payments made to and retained by the Underwriter must represent not more than
reasonable compensation for underwriting the  Class ( ) Certificates; the sum
of  all payments  made  to and  retained  by the  Depositor  pursuant to  the
assignment of the  Mortgage Loans to the  Trust Fund must represent  not more
than  the fair market value of such  obligations; and the sum of all payments
made to  and  retained by  the  Master  Servicer and  any  sub-servicer  must
represent  not more than  reasonable compensation for  such person's services
under the Agreement and reimbursement of such person's reasonable expenses in
connection  therewith.   Sixth,  the  investing Plan  must  be an  accredited
investor as  defined in Rule 501(a)(1) of Regulation  D of the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

    Because  the Class  ( )  Certificates  are not  subordinate to  any other
class of Certificates  with respect to  the right to  receive payment in  the
event of default  or delinquencies on the underlying assets of the Trust, the
second general  condition set forth above  is satisfied with respect  to such
Certificates.    It  is  a  condition  of  the  issuance  of  the  Class (  )
Certificates   that   they   be   rated   (not   lower   than)   "_____"   by
___________________.  A fiduciary of  a Plan contemplating purchasing a Class
( ) Certificate in the secondary market  must make its own determination that
at the  time of  such acquisition,  the Class  ( )  Certificates continue  to
satisfy the third general  condition set forth above.  The  Depositor expects
that the  fourth general condition  set forth  above will  be satisfied  with
respect to the Class (  ) Certificates.  A fiduciary of  a Plan contemplating
purchasing a  Class ( ) Certificate must make  its own determination that the
first, third,  fifth and  sixth general  conditions set  forth above will  be
satisfied with respect to such Class ( ) Certificate.

    Before purchasing a Class (  ) Certificate, a fiduciary of a  Plan should
itself  confirm  (a)  that such  Certificates  constitute  "certificates" for
purposes of the Exemption and (b) that the specific and general conditions of
the Exemption and the other requirements set  forth in the Exemption would be
satisfied.    In  addition  to  making  its   own  determination  as  to  the
availability  of the  exemptive relief  provided in  the Exemption,  the Plan
fiduciary   should  consider  the   availability  of  any   other  prohibited
transaction exemptions.  See "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus.

    Any  Plan  fiduciary  considering  whether  to   purchase  a  Class  (  )
Certificate on behalf of a Plan should consult with its counsel regarding the
applicability  of  the fiduciary  responsibility  and  prohibited transaction
provisions  of ERISA and the Code to such investment.  Prospective purchasers
that  are insurance  companies should  consult with  their counsel  regarding
whether the Uni                                                    ted States
Supreme Court's decision in the case of  John Hancock v. Harris Trust Savings
Bank, 510 U.S. 86 (1993)                 ----------------------------------
affects their ability  to make purchases  of Class (  ) Certificates and  the
extent  to  which  Prohibited  Transaction  Class  Exemption  95-60   may  be
available.  See "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus.  

                               LEGAL INVESTMENT

    The  Class  (  ) Certificates  (will)  (will  not)  constitute  "mortgage
related securities" for purposes of the Secondary Mortgage Market Enhancement
Act of  1984 ("SMMEA")  so long  as they  are rated  in at  least the  second
highest  rating  category  by the  Rating  Agency, and,  as  such,  are legal
investments  for certain  entities to the  extent provided in  SMMEA).  SMMEA
provided that  states could override  its provisions on legal  investment and
restrict or  condition investment in  mortgage related  securities by  taking
statutory action on or prior to October 3, 1991.  Certain states have enacted
legislation which overrides the preemption provisions of SMMEA.

    The Depositor makes no representations as to the  proper characterization
of the Class  ( ) Certificates for legal investment or  other purposes, or as
to the ability of particular investors to purchase the Class ( ) Certificates
under  applicable legal  investment restrictions.    These uncertainties  may
adversely affect the  liquidity of the Class (  ) Certificates.  Accordingly,
all institutions whose investment activities are subject to  legal investment
laws and regulations, regulatory capital requirements or review by regulatory
authorities  should  consult with  their  own legal  advisors  in determining
whether  and to  what extent the  Class (  ) Certificates constitute  a legal
investment  under  SMMEA  or  is  subject to  investment,  capital  or  other
restrictions.

    See "Legal Investment" in the Prospectus.

                             PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

    Subject  to  the terms  and  conditions  set forth  in  the  Underwriting
Agreement  between  the  Depositor  and   the  Underwriter,  the  Class  (  )
Certificates  will be  purchased from  the Depositor  by the  Underwriter, an
affiliate of  the Depositor, upon  issuance.  Distribution  of the Class  ( )
Certificates will be made by the Underwriter from time to time  in negotiated
transactions or otherwise at  varying prices to be determined at  the time of
sale.   Proceeds to the  Depositor from the Certificates  will be __%  of the
initial  aggregate principal  balance thereof  as of  the Cut-off  Date, plus
accrued  interest from the Cut-off  Date at a  rate of __%  per annum, before
deducting expenses payable by the Depositor.  In connection with the purchase
and sale of the Class ( ) Certificates, the Underwriter may be deemed to have
received  compensation  from  the  Depositor  in  the  form  of  underwriting
discounts.

    The Depositor  also has been advised by  the Underwriter that it, through
one or more of its affiliates currently expects to make a market in the Class
( ) Certificates offered  hereby; however, it has no obligation to do so, any
market making may be discontinued at any time, and  there can be no assurance
that an active public market for the Class ( ) Certificates will develop.

    The Depositor  has agreed to indemnify  the Underwriter against,  or make
contributions  to the  Underwriter  with  respect  to,  certain  liabilities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933.


                                LEGAL MATTERS

    Certain  legal matters will be passed upon  for the Depositor by Sidley &
Austin, New York, New York or Brown &  Wood LLP, New York, New York or Latham
& Watkins, New York, New York or Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft, New York, New
York, and for the Underwriter by ____________________.


                                    RATING

    It is a condition  to issuance that the  Class ( ) Certificates be  rated
(not  lower  than) "______"  by  ________________.    However, no  person  is
obligated to  maintain  the  rating  on  the  Class  (  )  Certificates,  and
_______________ is not obligated to  monitor its rating following the Closing
Date.

    ________________'s ratings on mortgage pass-through  certificates address
the likelihood of  the receipt by holders  thereof of payments to  which they
are entitled.   _____________'s  ratings take  into consideration  the credit
quality of  the mortgage pool,  structural and legal aspects  associated with
the certificates, and  the extent to which the payment stream in the mortgage
pool  is  adequate   to  make  payments  required  under   the  certificates.
_________________'s rating on  the Class ( ) Certificates  does not, however,
constitute a  statement regarding  frequency of  prepayments on  the Mortgage
Loans.    (The rating  of the  Class (  ) Certificates  does not  address the
possibility that the  holders of such Certificates may fail  to fully recover
their initial investments.)  See "Risk Factors" herein.

    There can be no assurance  as to whether any rating agency  not requested
to rate the  Class ( ) Certificates  will nonetheless issue a  rating and, if
so,  what  such  rating  would be.    A  rating assigned  to  the  Class  ( )
Certificates by a rating agency that has  not been requested by the Depositor
to do so may be lower than the rating assigned by ________________'s pursuant
to the Depositor's request.

    The  rating   of  the  Class  (   )  Certificates  should   be  evaluated
independently from similar ratings on other  types of securities.  A security
rating is not  a recommendation to  buy, sell or hold  securities and may  be
subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency.

PROSPECTUS
   
                SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED FEBRUARY 11, 1998
    
                      Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates
                             (Issuable in Series)
                        Morgan Stanley Capital I Inc.
                                  Depositor

     The  Certificates offered hereby  and by Supplements  to this Prospectus
(the "Offered Certificates") will be offered from time to time in one or more
series.  Each series  of Certificates  will  represent in  the aggregate  the
entire beneficial  ownership interest  in a trust  fund (with respect  to any
series,  the "Trust  Fund") consisting  of one  or more  segregated pools  of
various types  of multifamily  or commercial  mortgage  loans (the  "Mortgage
Loans"),   mortgage  participations,   mortgage  pass-through   certificates,
mortgage-backed securities  evidencing interests therein  or secured  thereby
(the "MBS"),  certain  direct  obligations  of the  United  States,  agencies
thereof  or  agencies created  thereby  (the  "Government  Securities") or  a
combination of Mortgage Loans, MBS and/or Government Securities (with respect
to  any series,  collectively,  "Assets").  If so  specified  in the  related
Prospectus  Supplement,  some or  all  of  the  Mortgage Loans  will  include
assignments of  the leases  of the related  Mortgaged Properties  (as defined
herein) and/or assignments  of the rental payments due from the lessees under
such leases (each type of assignment, a "Lease Assignment"). A significant or
the sole source of  payments on certain Commercial Loans (as  defined herein)
and, therefore, of  distributions on certain series of  Certificates, will be
such rent payments.  The Mortgage Loans and MBS  are collectively referred to
herein as  the "Mortgage Assets." If  so specified in  the related Prospectus
Supplement,  the Trust Fund for a series  of Certificates may include letters
of credit,  insurance policies, guarantees,  reserve funds or other  types of
credit  support, or  any combination  thereof  (with respect  to any  series,
collectively,  "Credit  Support"),  and currency  or  interest  rate exchange
agreements  and other  financial  assets, or  any  combination thereof  (with
respect  to   any  series,   collectively,  "Cash   Flow  Agreements").   See
"Description  of the  Trust  Funds," "Description  of  the Certificates"  and
"Description of Credit Support."

     Each  series of  Certificates will  consist  of one  or more  classes of
Certificates that may (i) provide  for the accrual of interest  thereon based
on fixed, variable or adjustable rates; (ii)  be senior or subordinate to one
or more other classes of Certificates  in respect of certain distributions on
the   Certificates;  (iii)  be  entitled  to  principal  distributions,  with
disproportionately  low,  nominal  or  no  interest  distributions;  (iv)  be
entitled to interest  distributions, with disproportionately low,  nominal or
no principal distributions; (v) provide for distributions of accrued interest
thereon commencing only  following the occurrence of certain  events, such as
the retirement of one or more  other classes of Certificates of such  series;
(vi) provide for distributions of principal sequentially,  based on specified
payment   schedules  or  other   methodologies;  and/or  (vii)   provide  for
distributions based on a combination  of two or more components  thereof with
one or more of the characteristics described in this paragraph, to the extent
of  available funds,  in each  case as  described in  the related  Prospectus
Supplement. Any such classes may include classes of Offered Certificates. See
"Description of the Certificates."
                                             (cover continued on next page)

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED  OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES AND
EXCHANGE  COMMISSION  OR  ANY  STATE  SECURITIES  COMMISSION,  NOR  HAS   THE
SECURITIES AND  EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED
UPON THE ACCURACY OR  ADEQUACY OF THIS  PROSPECTUS OR THE RELATED  PROSPECTUS
SUPPLEMENT. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

     Investors should consider,  among other things, certain risks  set forth
under  the  caption "Risk  Factors"  herein  and  in the  related  Prospectus
Supplement.

     Prior to issuance there will have been no market for the Certificates of
any series  and there  can be no  assurance that  a secondary market  for any
Offered Certificates  will develop  or  that, if  it  does develop,  it  will
continue. This Prospectus may not be used  to consummate sales of the Offered
Certificates of  any series unless  accompanied by the  Prospectus Supplement
for such series.

            Offers of the Offered Certificates may be made through one or more
       different methods, including  offerings through  underwriters, as  more
       fully described under "Plan of  Distribution" herein and in the related
       Prospectus Supplement.


                                 MORGAN STANLEY & CO.
                                     INCORPORATED
   
       February 11, 1998
    

            Principal  and interest  with  respect  to  Certificates  will  be
       distributable  monthly,  quarterly,  semi-annually  or  at  such  other
       intervals  and  on  the  dates  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus
       Supplement. Distributions  on the  Certificates of  any series  will be
       made only from the assets of the related Trust Fund.

            The Certificates of  each series will not represent  an obligation
       of or interest in the Depositor, Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, any
       Master Servicer, any Sub-Servicer, any Special Servicer or any of their
       respective  affiliates, except to  the limited extent  described herein
       and in the related Prospectus Supplement. Neither the Certificates  nor
       any assets in the related Trust  Fund will be guaranteed or insured  by
       any  governmental agency  or instrumentality  or by  any other  person,
       unless otherwise  provided in  the related  Prospectus Supplement.  The
       assets in  each Trust Fund will be held in trust for the benefit of the
       holders of the related series of Certificates pursuant to a Pooling and
       Servicing  Agreement  or a  Trust  Agreement, as  more  fully described
       herein.

            The  yield  on each  class of  Certificates  of a  series  will be
       affected  by, among  other things,  the  rate of  payment of  principal
       (including prepayments, repurchase and defaults) on the Mortgage Assets
       in the related Trust Fund and the timing of receipt of such payments as
       described under  the caption "Yield  Considerations" herein and  in the
       related Prospectus  Supplement. A  Trust Fund may  be subject  to early
       termination under the circumstances described herein and in the related
       Prospectus Supplement.

            Prospective  investors  should  review  the information  appearing
       under the  caption "Risk Factors" herein and such information as may be
       set forth  under the caption  "Risk Factors" in the  related Prospectus
       Supplement before purchasing any Offered Certificate.

            If so provided  in the related Prospectus Supplement,  one or more
       elections may be made  to treat the related Trust Fund  or a designated
       portion  thereof as  a "real  estate mortgage  investment conduit"  for
       federal income  tax  purposes. See  also  "Certain Federal  Income  Tax
       Consequences" herein.

            Until 90  days after the  date of each Prospectus  Supplement, all
       dealers effecting transactions  in the Offered Certificates  covered by
       such  Prospectus  Supplement,  whether  or  not  participating  in  the
       distribution  thereof, may  be  required  to  deliver  such  Prospectus
       Supplement and this  Prospectus. This is in addition  to the obligation
       of  dealers  to deliver  a  Prospectus and  Prospectus  Supplement when
       acting as underwriters  and with respect to their  unsold allotments or
       subscriptions.

                                PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

            As  more particularly described  herein, the Prospectus Supplement
       relating to the  Offered Certificates of each series  will, among other
       things,  set forth with  respect to such  Certificates, as appropriate:
       (i) a description of the class or classes of Certificates,  the payment
       provisions with respect to each such class and the Pass-Through Rate or
       method of determining  the Pass-Through Rate with respect  to each such
       class;  (ii)  the  aggregate principal  amount  and  distribution dates
       relating  to such  series and,  if  applicable, the  initial and  final
       scheduled distribution  dates for each  class; (iii) information  as to
       the  assets   comprising  the   Trust  Fund,   including  the   general
       characteristics  of the assets included therein, including the Mortgage
       Assets and any Credit Support and Cash Flow Agreements (with respect to
       the  Certificates  of   any  series,  the  "Trust  Assets");  (iv)  the
       circumstances,  if any, under  which the Trust  Fund may  be subject to
       early  termination;  (v)  additional information  with  respect  to the
       method of distribution  of such Certificates; (vi) whether  one or more
       REMIC elections will  be made and designation of  the regular interests
       and  residual  interests;  (vii)   the  aggregate  original  percentage
       ownership interest in the  Trust Fund to be evidenced by  each class of
       Certificates;  (viii)  information  as  to  any  Master  Servicer,  any
       Sub-Servicer,  any Special Servicer  (or provision for  the appointment
       thereof) and  the Trustee,  as applicable; (ix)  information as  to the
       nature  and  extent of  subordination  with  respect  to any  class  of
       Certificates  that is  subordinate in  right  of payment  to any  other
       class; and  (x) whether such  Certificates will be initially  issued in
       definitive or book-entry form.

                                AVAILABLE INFORMATION

            The  Depositor  has   filed  with  the  Securities   and  Exchange
       Commission (the "Commission")  a Registration Statement (of  which this
       Prospectus forms a part) under the Securities Act of 1933, as  amended,
       with respect to the Offered Certificates. 

       This Prospectus and the  Prospectus Supplement relating to each  series
       of  Certificates  contain  summaries  of  the  material  terms  of  the
       documents referred to herein and therein, but do not contain all of the
       information set  forth in the  Registration Statement  pursuant to  the
       rules  and  regulations  of the  Commission.  For  further information,
       reference  is  made to  such  Registration Statement  and  the exhibits
       thereto. Such Registration Statement and  exhibits can be inspected and
       copied  at  prescribed   rates  at  the  public   reference  facilities
       maintained by the Commission at its Public Reference Section, 450 Fifth
       Street,  N.W., Washington,  D.C.  20549, and  at  its Regional  Offices
       located as follows: Chicago Regional  Office, Citicorp Center, 500 West
       Madison Street, Chicago, Illinois 60661; and  New York Regional Office,
       Seven World Trade Center, New York, New York 10048.

            To the extent described in the related Prospectus Supplement, some
       or all  of the Mortgage  Loans may be secured  by an assignment  of the
       lessors' (i.e., the  related mortgagors') rights in one  or more leases
       (each, a  "Lease") of the related Mortgaged  Property. Unless otherwise
       specified   in  the  related   Prospectus  Supplement,  no   series  of
       Certificates will represent  interests in or obligations  of any lessee
       (each,  a  "Lessee") under  a  Lease.  If  indicated, however,  in  the
       Prospectus Supplement  for a  given series, a  significant or  the sole
       source  of  payments  on  the  Mortgage  Loans  in  such  series,  and,
       therefore,  of distributions  on  such  Certificates,  will  be  rental
       payments  due   from  the   Lessees  under   the  Leases.  Under   such
       circumstances,  prospective   investors  in  the   related  series   of
       Certificates  may wish to  consider publicly available  information, if
       any, concerning  the Lessees. Reference  should be made to  the related
       Prospectus  Supplement  for  information  concerning  the  Lessees  and
       whether  any  such  Lessees  are  subject  to  the  periodic  reporting
       requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

            No person has been authorized  to give any information or to  make
       any  representations other than those  contained in this Prospectus and
       any Prospectus  Supplement with respect  hereto and, if given  or made,
       such information  or  representations must  not  be relied  upon.  This
       Prospectus  and any  Prospectus Supplement with  respect hereto  do not
       constitute  an offer to sell  or a solicitation of  an offer to buy any
       securities  other than  the Offered  Certificates  or an  offer of  the
       Offered Certificates to  any person in any state  or other jurisdiction
       in which  such offer would be unlawful. The delivery of this Prospectus
       at any time does not imply that information herein is correct as of any
       time subsequent  to its  date; however, if  any material  change occurs
       while  this  Prospectus  is  required  by law  to  be  delivered,  this
       Prospectus will be amended or supplemented accordingly.

            A Master  Servicer or  the Trustee  will be  required  to mail  to
       holders  of  Offered  Certificates of  each  series  periodic unaudited
       reports concerning the related Trust Fund.  Unless and until definitive
       Certificates are  issued, or unless  otherwise provided in  the related
       Prospectus  Supplement, such  reports will  be  sent on  behalf of  the
       related Trust Fund to Cede & Co. ("Cede"), as nominee of The Depository
       Trust   Company  ("DTC")   and  registered   holder   of  the   Offered
       Certificates, pursuant to the applicable Agreement. Such reports may be
       available   to  holders   of  interests   in   the  Certificates   (the
       "Certificateholders")   upon   request   to   their   respective    DTC
       participants.   See  "Description   of  the   Certificates--Reports  to
       Certificateholders" and  "Description of the Agreements--Evidence as to
       Compliance." The  Depositor will  file or  cause to  be filed  with the
       Commission such periodic reports with respect to each Trust Fund as are
       required under  the Securities  Exchange Act of  1934, as  amended (the
       "Exchange  Act"),  and the  rules  and  regulations of  the  Commission
       thereunder.

                  INCORPORATION OF CERTAIN INFORMATION BY REFERENCE

            There  are  incorporated  herein by  reference  all  documents and
       reports filed or caused to be filed by the Depositor with respect  to a
       Trust  Fund  pursuant to  Section  13(a),  13(c), 14  or  15(d) of  the
       Exchange  Act, prior  to  the  termination of  an  offering of  Offered
       Certificates evidencing interests  therein. The Depositor will  provide
       or cause  to be  provided without charge  to each  person to  whom this
       Prospectus is delivered in connection with the offering of one or  more
       classes of  Offered Certificates,  a copy  of any or  all documents  or
       reports incorporated  herein by reference,  in each case to  the extent
       such documents or reports relate to one or more of such classes of such
       Offered Certificates, other than the exhibits to such documents (unless
       such  exhibits are  specifically  incorporated  by  reference  in  such
       documents). Requests to the Depositor  should be directed in writing to
       Morgan Stanley Capital  I Inc., c/o Morgan Stanley  & Co. Incorporated,
       1585 Broadway, 37th Floor, New York, New York 10036, Attention: John E.
       Westerfield,  or  by telephone  at  (212) 761-4700.  The  Depositor has
       determined  that  its  financial statements  are  not  material  to the
       offering of any Offered Certificates.

       The Trust Assets

       Each series of Certificates will  represent in the aggregate the entire
       beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund consisting primarily of:

        (a) Mortgage Assets

       The Mortgage  Assets with respect  to each series of  Certificates will
       consist  of  a pool  of  multifamily and/or  commercial  mortgage loans
       (collectively,  the  "Mortgage  Loans")  and  mortgage  participations,
       mortgage pass-through certificates  or other mortgage-backed securities
       evidencing interests in or secured by Mortgage Loans (collectively, the
       "MBS") or a combination of Mortgage  Loans and MBS. The Mortgage  Loans
       will  not be  guaranteed or  insured  by the  Depositor or  any  of its
       affiliates  or, unless otherwise provided in the Prospectus Supplement,
       by any governmental agency or  instrumentality or other person. As more
       specifically described  herein, the Mortgage  Loans will be  secured by
       first  or  junior  liens  on,  or  security  interests  in,  properties
       consisting of  (i) residential properties  consisting of  five or  more
       rental   or  cooperatively-owned   dwelling  units   (the  "Multifamily
       Properties") or (ii) office buildings, shopping centers, retail stores,
       hotels or motels, nursing homes, hospitals or other health-care related
       facilities,  mobile home  parks,  warehouse facilities,  mini-warehouse
       facilities  or self-storage  facilities, industrial  plants, congregate
       care facilities, mixed use or other types of commercial properties (the
       "Commercial Properties"). The  term "Mortgaged Properties" shall  refer
       to Multifamily Properties or Commercial Properties, or both.

       To the extent  described in the related Prospectus  Supplement, some or
       all of the Mortgage  Loans may also be secured by  an assignment of one
       or  more  leases (each,  a "Lease")  of  one or  more lessees  (each, a
       "Lessee")  of all  or a  portion of  the related  Mortgaged Properties.
       Unless  otherwise specified  in the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  a
       significant or the sole source  of payments on certain Commercial Loans
       (as defined herein) will  be the rental payments due under  the related
       Leases.   In  certain   circumstances,  with   respect  to   Commercial
       Properties, the material terms and conditions of the related Leases may
       be set forth in the  related Prospectus Supplement. See "Description of
       the  Trust Funds--Mortgage  Loans--Leases"  and "Risk  Factors--Limited
       Assets" herein.

       The Mortgaged Properties may be located in any one of the fifty states,
       the  District of  Columbia  or  the Commonwealth  of  Puerto Rico.  The
       Prospectus Supplement  will indicate additional  jurisdictions, if any,
       in  which the  Mortgaged Properties  may be  located. Unless  otherwise
       provided in the related Prospectus Supplement,  all Mortgage Loans will
       have  individual principal  balances  at origination  of not  less than
       $25,000 and  original terms to maturity of not  more than 40 years. All
       Mortgage  Loans will  have been  originated by  persons other  than the
       Depositor, and  all Mortgage  Assets will  have been  purchased, either
       directly  or indirectly,  by the  Depositor on  or before  the date  of
       initial  issuance of  the related series  of Certificates.  The related
       Prospectus Supplement  will indicate if any such persons are affiliates
       of the Depositor.

       Each  Mortgage Loan  may  provide for  no accrual  of  interest or  for
       accrual of  interest thereon  at an interest  rate (a  "Mortgage Rate")
       that is fixed over its term or that adjusts from  time to time, or that
       may be converted from an adjustable to a fixed Mortgage Rate, or from a
       fixed  to  an  adjustable  Mortgage Rate,  from  time  to  time at  the
       mortgagor's  election,  in  each  case  as  described  in  the  related
       Prospectus  Supplement. Adjustable Mortgage Rates on the Mortgage Loans
       in a Trust Fund may be based on one or more indices. Each Mortgage Loan
       may provide for  scheduled payments to  maturity, payments that  adjust
       from time  to time to  accommodate changes in  the Mortgage Rate  or to
       reflect the occurrence of certain  events, and may provide for negative
       amortization or accelerated  amortization, in each case as described in
       the  related Prospectus  Supplement. Each  Mortgage Loan  may be  fully
       amortizing  or require  a balloon  payment due  on its  stated maturity
       date, in each  case as described in the  related Prospectus Supplement.
       Each Mortgage  Loan may contain  prohibitions on prepayment  or require
       payment of a premium  or a yield maintenance penalty in connection with
       a  prepayment, in  each case  as  described in  the related  Prospectus
       Supplement.  The Mortgage Loans may provide  for payments of principal,
       interest   or  both,  on  due  dates  that  occur  monthly,  quarterly,
       semi-annually  or at such other interval as is specified in the related
       Prospectus Supplement. See "Description of the Trust Funds--Assets."

        (b) Government Securities

       If so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Trust Fund may
       include, in addition to Mortgage Assets,  certain direct obligations of
       the  United States, agencies thereof or  agencies created thereby which
       provide  for  payment  of  interest  and/or   principal  (collectively,
       "Government Securities").

        (c) Collection Accounts

       Each  Trust Fund  will include  one  or more  accounts established  and
       maintained on behalf of the Certificateholders into which the person or
       persons  designated in the  related Prospectus Supplement  will, to the
       extent described herein  and in such Prospectus Supplement, deposit all
       payments  and collections  received  or advanced  with  respect to  the
       Mortgage Assets and other assets in the Trust Fund. Such an account may
       be maintained as an interest bearing or a non-interest bearing account,
       and funds  held therein  may be  held as  cash or  invested in  certain
       short-term, investment grade obligations, in  each case as described in
       the   related   Prospectus   Supplement.   See   "Description   of  the
       Agreements--Certificate Account and Other Collection Accounts."

        (d) Credit Support

       If so  provided in the  related Prospectus Supplement, partial  or full
       protection against  certain defaults and losses on  the Mortgage Assets
       in the related  Trust Fund may  be provided to  one or more classes  of
       Certificates of the related series in  the form of subordination of one
       or  more other  classes of  Certificates  of such  series, which  other
       classes may include one or more classes of Offered  Certificates, or by
       one or more other types  of credit support, such as a letter of credit,
       insurance policy,  guarantee, reserve  fund or  another type of  credit
       support, or  a combination thereof  (any such coverage with  respect to
       the Certificates of any series, "Credit Support"). The amount and types
       of coverage, the  identification of the  entity providing the  coverage
       (if applicable)  and related information  with respect to each  type of
       Credit Support, if any, will  be described in the Prospectus Supplement
       for a series of Certificates.  The Prospectus Supplement for any series
       of Certificates  evidencing an interest  in a Trust Fund  that includes
       MBS will describe any similar forms of credit support that are provided
       by  or with  respect to,  or are  included as  part  of the  trust fund
       evidenced  by   or  providing  security   for,  such  MBS.   See  "Risk
       Factors--Credit  Support   Limitations"  and  "Description   of  Credit
       Support."

        (e) Cash Flow Agreements

       If so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Trust Fund may
       include guaranteed investment  contracts pursuant to which  moneys held
       in the  funds and accounts established  for the related series  will be
       invested at a specified  rate. The Trust Fund may also  include certain
       other agreements, such  as interest rate exchange  agreements, interest
       rate cap  or floor agreements, currency exchange  agreements or similar
       agreements provided to reduce the  effects of interest rate or currency
       exchange rate  fluctuations on the Assets or on  one or more classes of
       Certificates.  (Currency exchange agreements  might be included  in the
       Trust  Fund if  some or all  of the  Mortgage Assets (such  as Mortgage
       Loans  secured by  Mortgaged  Properties  located  outside  the  United
       States)   were  denominated  in  a  non-United  States  currency.)  The
       principal terms  of any  such guaranteed  investment contract  or other
       agreement (any  such agreement,  a "Cash  Flow Agreement"),  including,
       without  limitation,  provisions  relating to  the  timing,  manner and
       amount   of  payments  thereunder   and  provisions  relating   to  the
       termination thereof, will be described in the Prospectus Supplement for
       the related series. In addition, the related Prospectus Supplement will
       provide certain information with respect  to the obligor under any such
       Cash  Flow  Agreement. The  Prospectus  Supplement  for  any series  of
       Certificates evidencing an  interest in a Trust Fund  that includes MBS
       will describe any cash flow agreements that are included as part of the
       trust  fund  evidenced by  or  providing  security  for such  MBS.  See
       "Description  of the Trust Funds--Cash Flow Agreements." Description of
       Certificates.

       Distributions on Certificates

       Each series of Certificates evidencing an interest in a Trust Fund that
       includes Mortgage Loans as  part of its assets will  be issued pursuant
       to a pooling  and servicing agreement, and each  series of Certificates
       evidencing an interest  in a Trust Fund that does  not include Mortgage
       Loans  will  be issued  pursuant  to  a  trust agreement.  Pooling  and
       servicing agreements and trust agreements are referred to herein as the
       "Agreements."  Each  series of  Certificates will  include one  or more
       classes. Each series of Certificates (including any class or classes of
       Certificates of such  series not offered hereby) will  represent in the
       aggregate  the entire beneficial ownership  interest in the Trust Fund.
       Each  class of  Certificates  (other  than  certain  Stripped  Interest
       Certificates, as defined below) will  have a stated principal amount (a
       "Certificate  Balance")  and  (other than  certain  Stripped  Principal
       Certificates, as  defined below), will accrue interest thereon based on
       a fixed, variable or adjustable  interest rate (a "Pass-Through Rate").
       The related Prospectus Supplement will specify the Certificate Balance,
       if any, and the Pass-Through Rate for each class of Certificates or, in
       the case of a variable or adjustable Pass-Through Rate, the method  for
       determining the Pass-Through Rate.

       Each  series of  Certificates will  consist of  one or more  classes of
       Certificates that may  (i) provide for the accrual  of interest thereon
       based  on  fixed,   variable  or  adjustable  rates;  (ii)   be  senior
       (collectively,  "Senior Certificates")  or subordinate  (col-lectively,
       "Subordinate  Certificates")   to  one   or  more   other  classes   of
       Certificates in respect  of certain distributions on  the Certificates;
       (iii) be entitled  to principal distributions, with  disproportionately
       low,  nominal  or  no interest  distributions  (collectively, "Stripped
       Principal  Certificates"); (iv) be  entitled to interest distributions,
       with  disproportionately low,  nominal  or  no principal  distributions
       (collectively,  "Stripped  Interest  Certificates");  (v)  provide  for
       distributions of accrued interest thereon commencing only following the
       occurrence of  certain events, such  as the  retirement of one  or more
       other  classes of Certificates  of such series  (collectively, "Accrual
       Certificates");   (vi)   provide   for   distributions   of   principal
       sequentially,  based   on   specified  payment   schedules   or   other
       methodologies;  and/or (vii)  provide  for  distributions  based  on  a
       combination of  two or more components thereof with  one or more of the
       characteristics  described  in  this paragraph,  including  a  Stripped
       Principal Certificate  component and  a  Stripped Interest  Certificate
       component, to the extent of available funds, in each case  as described
       in  the related  Prospectus Supplement.  Any such  classes  may include
       classes of Offered Certificates. With  respect to Certificates with two
       or  more components, references herein to Certificate Balance, notional
       amount and  Pass-Through Rate refer  to the principal balance,  if any,
       notional amount,  if any, and  the Pass-Through Rate,  if any,  for any
       such component.

       The Certificates will not  be guaranteed or insured by the Depositor or
       any of its affiliates, by any governmental agency or instrumentality or
       by   any  other  person,  unless  otherwise  provided  in  the  related
       Prospectus   Supplement.   See  "Risk   Factors--Limited   Assets"  and
       "Description of the Certificates."

        (a) Interest

       Interest on  each class  of Offered  Certificates (other  than Stripped
       Principal  Certificates  and  certain  classes  of   Stripped  Interest
       Certificates) of each series will accrue at the applicable Pass-Through
       Rate on  the  outstanding  Certificate  Balance  thereof  and  will  be
       distributed to Certificateholders as provided in the related Prospectus
       Supplement (each of  the specified dates on which  distributions are to
       be made, a "Distribution Date"). Distributions with respect to interest
       on Stripped Interest Certificates may be made on each Distribution Date
       on  the  basis  of  a  notional  amount as  described  in  the  related
       Prospectus Supplement. Distributions of interest with respect to one or
       more classes of Certificates  may be reduced  to the extent of  certain
       delinquencies,  losses,  prepayment  interest  shortfalls,  and   other
       contingencies  described   herein  and   in   the  related   Prospectus
       Supplement.   See   "Risk   Factors--Average   Life  of   Certificates;
       Prepayments; Yields,"  "Yield Considerations"  and "Description of  the
       Certificates--Distributions of Interest on the Certificates."

        (b) Principal

       The  Certificates  of  each series  initially  will  have an  aggregate
       Certificate Balance no  greater than the outstanding  principal balance
       of the Assets as of,  unless the related Prospectus Supplement provides
       otherwise, the  close of  business on  the first  day of  the month  of
       formation  of  the  related  Trust Fund  (the  "Cut-off  Date"),  after
       application of scheduled  payments due on or before  such date, whether
       or not  received. The Certificate Balance of  a Certificate outstanding
       from time to time represents the maximum amount that the holder thereof
       is  then entitled to receive  in respect of  principal from future cash
       flow on the assets in the related Trust Fund. Unless otherwise provided
       in the related  Prospectus Supplement, distributions of  principal will
       be  made  on  each  Distribution  Date  to  the  class  or  classes  of
       Certificates  entitled thereto until  the Certificate Balances  of such
       Certificates have been  reduced to zero. Unless  otherwise specified in
       the  related Prospectus Supplement,  distributions of principal  of any
       class of Certificates will be made on a pro rata basis among all of the
       Certificates of such class or by  random selection, as described in the
       related Prospectus Supplement  or otherwise established by  the related
       Trustee.  Stripped Interest  Certificates with  no Certificate  Balance
       will  not   receive  distributions   in  respect   of  principal.   See
       "Description  of the  Certificates--Distributions of  Principal of  the
       Certificates."

       Advances

       Unless otherwise  provided in  the related  Prospectus Supplement,  the
       Master  Servicer   will  be   obligated  as   part  of   its  servicing
       responsibilities  to  make  certain advances  that  in  its good  faith
       judgment  it deems  recoverable with  respect  to delinquent  scheduled
       payments on  the Whole Loans in such  Trust Fund. Neither the Depositor
       nor any  of its affiliates  will have any  responsibility to make  such
       advances. Advances made by a Master Servicer are reimbursable generally
       from subsequent recoveries in respect of such Whole Loans and otherwise
       to the extent described herein and in the related Prospectus 
       Supplement. If and to the  extent provided in the Prospectus Supplement
       for  any  series, the  Master  Servicer  will  be entitled  to  receive
       interest  on its  outstanding  advances, payable  from  amounts in  the
       related Trust  Fund.  The  Prospectus  Supplement  for  any  series  of

       Certificates evidencing an  interest in a Trust Fund  that includes MBS
       will  describe any corresponding advancing  obligation of any person in
       connection    with    such    MBS.    See    "Description    of     the
       Certificates--Advances in Respect of Delinquencies."

       Termination

       If  so specified  in the  related  Prospectus Supplement,  a series  of
       Certificates  may be subject to optional  early termination through the
       repurchase of  the  Assets in  the  related  Trust Fund  by  the  party
       specified therein, under the circumstances  and in the manner set forth
       therein. If so provided in  the related Prospectus Supplement, upon the
       reduction of the Certificate Balance of a specified class or classes of
       Certificates by a specified percentage or amount or on and after a date
       specified  in such Prospectus  Supplement, the party  specified therein
       will  solicit bids for the purchase  of all of the  Assets of the Trust
       Fund, or of a sufficient portion of such Assets to retire such class or
       classes, or purchase  such Assets at a  price set forth in  the related
       Prospectus Supplement.  In  addition, if  so  provided in  the  related
       Prospectus Supplement, certain classes of Certificates may be purchased
       subject   to    similar   conditions.    See   "Description   of    the
       Certificates--Termination."

       Registration of Certificates

       If  so provided  in  the  related Prospectus  Supplement,  one or  more
       classes of  the Offered Certificates  will initially be  represented by
       one or  more Certificates registered in the name  of Cede & Co., as the
       nominee of DTC. No person acquiring an interest in Offered Certificates
       so  registered will  be entitled  to receive  a definitive  certificate
       representing such person's interest except in the event that definitive
       certificates  are  issued  under the  limited  circumstances  described
       herein. See "Risk Factors--Book-Entry Registration" and "Description of
       the Certificates--Book-Entry Registration and Definitive Certificates."

       Tax Status of the Certificates

       The Certificates  of each  series will  constitute either (i)  "regular
       interests" ("REMIC  Regular  Certificates")  and  "residual  interests"
       ("REMIC  Residual Certificates")  in a  Trust Fund  treated as  a REMIC
       under  Sections  860A through  860G  of  the  Code, or  (ii)  interests
       ("Grantor Trust  Certificates") in  a Trust Fund  treated as  a grantor
       trust under applicable provisions of the Code.

        (a) REMIC

       REMIC   Regular  Certificates  generally   will  be  treated   as  debt
       obligations of  the applicable REMIC  for federal income  tax purposes.
       Certain  REMIC Regular Certificates  may be issued  with original issue
       discount for  federal income tax purposes. See  "Certain Federal Income
       Tax Consequences" in the Prospectus Supplement.

       A portion (or, in certain cases, all) of the income from REMIC Residual
       Certificates (i) may not be offset by any  losses from other activities
       of the holder of such REMIC Residual Certificates, (ii) may  be treated
       as  unrelated business  taxable income  for holders  of  REMIC Residual
       Certificates  that are  subject to  tax on  unrelated business  taxable
       income  (as defined  in Section  511  of the  Code), and  (iii)  may be
       subject to  foreign withholding rules. See "Certain  Federal Income Tax
       Consequences--REMICs--Taxation    of   Owners    of   REMIC    Residual
       Certificates".

       The Offered  Certificates will  be treated as  (i) assets  described in
       section 7701(a)(19)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
       (the  "Code") and  (ii)  "real  estate assets"  within  the meaning  of
       section 856(c)(4)(A) of  the Code, in each case to the extent described
       herein  and  in  the  Prospectus.   See  "Certain  Federal  Income  Tax
       Consequences" herein and in the Prospectus.

        (b) Grantor Trust

       If no  election is made to treat the Trust Fund relating to a Series of
       Certificates  as a real  estate mortgage investment  conduit ("REMIC"),
       the Trust  Fund will  be classified as  a grantor trust  and not  as an
       association  taxable as a corporation  for federal income tax purposes,
       and  therefore holders of Certificates will be treated as the owners of
       undivided pro rata interests in the Mortgage Pool or pool of securities
       and any other assets held by the Trust Fund.

       Investors  are advised  to consult  their  tax advisors  and to  review
       "Certain Federal  Income Tax  Consequences" herein and  in the  related
       Prospectus Supplement.

       ERISA Considerations

       A fiduciary  of an  employee benefit plan  or other retirement  plan or
       arrangement, including an individual retirement account or annuity or a
       Keogh plan, and  any collective  investment fund  or insurance  company
       general or separate account in which such plans, accounts, annuities or
       arrangements are invested,  that is subject to Title  I of the Employee
       Retirement Income  Security  Act  of 1974,  as  amended  ("ERISA"),  or
       Section  4975  of the  Code  should  carefully  review with  its  legal
       advisors whether the purchase or holding of  Offered Certificates could
       give rise  to  a transaction  that is  prohibited or  is not  otherwise
       permissible either under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.  See "ERISA
       Considerations" herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement. To the
       extent  specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, certain classes
       of  Certificates may  not be  transferred  unless the  Trustee and  the
       Depositor are furnished with a  letter of representations or an opinion
       of  counsel  to the  effect that  such  transfer will  not result  in a
       violation of  the prohibited  transaction provisions  of ERISA  and the
       Code, will not cause the assets of the Trust to be deemed "plan assets"
       for purposes of  ERISA and the Code  and will not subject  the Trustee,
       the  Depositor or  the Master  Servicer to additional  obligations. See
       "ERISA Considerations" herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement.

       Legal Investment

       The related  Prospectus Supplement  will specify  whether any class  or
       classes of the  Offered Certificates will constitute  "mortgage related
       securities" for purposes  of the Secondary Mortgage  Market Enhancement
       Act  of 1984,  as  amended.  Investors  whose investment  authority  is
       subject to legal restrictions  should consult their own legal  advisors
       to  determine  whether and  to  what  extent the  Offered  Certificates
       constitute  legal investments for  them. See "Legal  Investment" herein
       and in the related Prospectus Supplement.

       Rating

       At the  date of  issuance, as  to each  series, each  class of  Offered
       Certificates will be  rated not lower than  investment grade by one  or
       more nationally recognized statistical rating agencies (each, a "Rating
       Agency"). See "Rating" herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement.

                                     RISK FACTORS

            Investors  should consider,  in connection  with  the purchase  of
       Offered Certificates,  among other  things, the  following factors  and
       certain  other factors  as may be  set forth  in "Risk Factors"  in the
       related Prospectus Supplement.

       Limited Liquidity

            There  can  be  no  assurance  that a  secondary  market  for  the
       Certificates of any series will develop or, if it does develop, that it
       will  provide holders  with liquidity  of  investment or  will continue
       while   Certificates  of  such  series  remain  outstanding.  Any  such
       secondary  market may  provide  less liquidity  to  investors than  any
       comparable  market for securities evidencing interests in single family
       mortgage loans. The  market value of  Certificates will fluctuate  with
       changes   in  prevailing  rates  of  interest.  Consequently,  sale  of
       Certificates  by a holder in any  secondary market that may develop may
       be at a discount from 100% of  their original principal balance or from
       their purchase price. Furthermore, secondary market purchasers may look
       only hereto, to the related Prospectus Supplement and to the reports to
       Certificateholders  delivered  pursuant  to  the related  Agreement  as
       described   herein    under   the    heading   "Description   of    the
       Certificates--Reports     to     Certificateholders",     "--Book-Entry
       Registration  and  Definitive  Certificates" and  "Description  of  the
       Agreements--Evidence as  to Compliance" for  information concerning the
       Certificates. Except to the extent  described herein and in the related
       Prospectus  Supplement,  Certificateholders  will  have  no  redemption
       rights and the Certificates are  subject to early retirement only under
       certain specified  circumstances described  herein and  in the  related
       Prospectus      Supplement.      See      "Description      of      the
       Certificates--Termination". Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated currently
       expects to make a secondary market in the Offered Certificates, but has
       no obligation to do so.

       Limited Assets

            The  Certificates will not represent  an interest in or obligation
            of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, or any of their affiliates.
            The only  obligations  with respect  to  the Certificates  or  the
            Assets will be  the obligations (if any) of  the Warrantying Party
            (as defined  herein) pursuant  to certain limited  representations
            and warranties made with respect to the Mortgage Loans, the Master
            Servicer's,  any   Special  Servicer's   and  any   Sub-Servicer's
            servicing  obligations under  the  related Pooling  and  Servicing
            Agreement  (including  the  limited  obligation  to  make  certain
            advances in the event of  delinquencies on the Mortgage Loans, but
            only   to   the   extent   deemed  recoverable).   Since   certain
            representations and warranties with respect to the Mortgage Assets
            may have been made and/or assigned in connection with transfers of
            such Mortgage  Assets prior to the Closing Date, the rights of the
            Trustee   and  the   Certificateholders   with  respect   to  such
            representations or warranties will  be limited to their  rights as
            an assignee  thereof. Unless  otherwise specified  in the  related
            Prospectus  Supplement, none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer
            or any affiliate thereof will  have any obligation with respect to
            representations or  warranties made  by any  other entity.  Unless
            otherwise specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement, neither
            the  Certificates nor  the  underlying  Mortgage  Assets  will  be
            guaranteed   or   insured   by    any   governmental   agency   or
            instrumentality, or  by the  Depositor, the  Master Servicer,  any
            Special Servicer,  any Sub-Servicer  or any  of their  affiliates.
            Proceeds of the assets included in the related Trust Fund for each
            series of  Certificates  (including the  Assets  and any  form  of
            credit enhancement)  will be  the sole source  of payments  on the
            Certificates, and  there will be  no recourse to the  Depositor or
            any other entity in the  event that such proceeds are insufficient
            or otherwise unavailable to make  all payments provided for  under
            the Certificates.

            Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, a
       series  of Certificates  will not  have any  claim against  or security
       interest in the  Trust Funds for any other series. If the related Trust
       Fund is  insufficient to make  payments on such Certificates,  no other
       assets  will be available for  payment of the deficiency. Additionally,
       certain amounts remaining  in certain funds or  accounts, including the
       Certificate Account and any accounts maintained as  Credit Support, may
       be withdrawn  under certain  conditions,  as described  in the  related
       Prospectus Supplement.  In the event  of such withdrawal,  such amounts
       will not be available for future payment of principal of or interest on
       the Certificates.  If so  provided in the  Prospectus Supplement  for a
       series of Certificates consisting of one or more classes of Subordinate
       Certificates, on  any Distribution Date  in respect of which  losses or
       shortfalls in collections on the  Assets have been incurred, the amount
       of such losses or shortfalls will be borne first by one or more classes
       of  the Subordinate  Certificates, and,  thereafter,  by the  remaining
       classes of Certificates in  the priority and manner and  subject to the
       limitations specified in such Prospectus Supplement.

       Average Life of Certificates; Prepayments; Yields

            Prepayments (including those  caused by defaults) on  the Mortgage
       Assets in any  Trust Fund  generally will  result in a  faster rate  of
       principal payments on  one or more classes of  the related Certificates
       than if payments on such Mortgage  Assets were made as scheduled. Thus,
       the prepayment experience on the Mortgage Assets may affect the average
       life  of each  class of  related  Certificates. The  rate of  principal
       payments  on pools of mortgage loans varies between pools and from time
       to  time  is  influenced   by  a  variety  of   economic,  demographic,
       geographic,  social, tax,  legal and  other  factors. There  can be  no
       assurance as to  the rate of prepayment  on the Mortgage Assets  in any
       Trust Fund  or that  the rate  of payments  will conform  to any  model
       described  herein  or  in  any  Prospectus  Supplement.  If  prevailing
       interest   rates  fall  significantly  below  the  applicable  mortgage
       interest rates, principal  prepayments are likely to be  higher than if
       prevailing rates  remain at or  above the  rates borne by  the Mortgage
       Loans underlying or  comprising the Mortgage Assets in  any Trust Fund.
       As a result,  the actual maturity  of any class  of Certificates  could
       occur significantly earlier than expected. A series of Certificates may
       include one or more classes  of Certificates with priorities of payment
       and, as  a result, yields  on other classes of  Certificates, including
       classes of Offered  Certificates, of such series may  be more sensitive
       to prepayments on Mortgage Assets. A series of Certificates may include
       one  or more  classes offered  at  a significant  premium or  discount.
       Yields on such classes of  Certificates will be sensitive, and  in some
       cases extremely sensitive, to prepayments on Mortgage Assets and, where
       the  amount   of  interest   payable  with  respect   to  a   class  is
       disproportionately high,  as compared to  the amount  of principal,  as
       with certain classes of Stripped Interest Certificates, a holder might,
       in some prepayment scenarios, fail to recoup its original investment. A
       series of Certificates may include one or more classes of Certificates,
       including   classes  of   Offered   Certificates,   that  provide   for
       distribution of principal thereof from amounts attributable to interest
       accrued  but not  currently distributable  on  one or  more classes  of
       Accrual Certificates and, as a result, yields on such Certificates will
       be  sensitive  to  (a)  the  provisions of  such  Accrual  Certificates
       relating to the timing  of distributions of interest thereon and (b) if
       such Accrual Certificates  accrue interest at a variable  or adjustable
       Pass-Through Rate,  changes in  such rate.  See "Yield  Considerations"
       herein and, if applicable, in the related Prospectus Supplement.

       Limited Nature of Ratings

            Any rating assigned by  a Rating Agency to a class of Certificates
       will  reflect such Rating Agency's assessment  solely of the likelihood
       that holders  of Certificates  of such class  will receive  payments to
       which such Certificateholders are entitled under the related Agreement.
       Such rating  will not constitute  an assessment of the  likelihood that
       principal  prepayments  (including  those caused  by  defaults)  on the
       related Mortgage Assets will  be made, the degree to which  the rate of
       such prepayments might differ  from that originally anticipated or  the
       likelihood of early optional termination of the series of Certificates.
       Such rating will not address  the possibility that prepayment at higher
       or lower  rates than anticipated by an investor may cause such investor
       to  experience a  lower  than  anticipated yield  or  that an  investor
       purchasing a Certificate at a  significant premium might fail to recoup
       its  initial   investment  under  certain  prepayment  scenarios.  Each
       Prospectus  Supplement will identify  any payment  to which  holders of
       Offered Certificates  of the  related series are  entitled that  is not
       covered by the applicable rating.

            The amount, type and nature of credit support, if any, established
       with respect  to a series  of Certificates  will be  determined on  the
       basis of criteria  established by each Rating Agency  rating classes of
       such series.  Such  criteria  are sometimes  based  upon  an  actuarial
       analysis of  the behavior  of mortgage  loans in  a larger group.  Such
       analysis is  often the basis  upon which each Rating  Agency determines
       the amount of credit support required with respect  to each such class.
       There can be no assurance that the historical data supporting  any such
       actuarial  analysis will accurately  reflect future experience  nor any
       assurance that  the data  derived from a  large pool of  mortgage loans
       accurately  predicts the delinquency, foreclosure or loss experience of
       any particular pool of Mortgage Assets. No  assurance can be given that
       values  of any  Mortgaged Properties  have remained  or will  remain at
       their  levels on  the respective  dates of  origination of  the related
       Mortgage  Loans. Moreover, there  is no assurance  that appreciation of
       real  estate  values  generally  will  limit  loss  experiences  on the
       Mortgaged Properties. If the commercial or multifamily residential real
       estate markets should experience an  overall decline in property values
       such  that  the outstanding  principal balances  of the  Mortgage Loans
       underlying or comprising the Mortgage Assets in a particular Trust Fund
       and  any secondary financing on the related Mortgaged Properties become
       equal to  or greater than  the value  of the Mortgaged  Properties, the
       rates of  delinquencies, foreclosures and  losses could be  higher than
       those  now generally experienced by institutional lenders. In addition,
       adverse economic conditions (which may  or may not affect real property
       values)  may  affect  the timely  payment  by  mortgagors  of scheduled
       payments  of  principal  and  interest   on  the  Mortgage  Loans  and,
       accordingly, the rates  of delinquencies, foreclosures and  losses with
       respect to  any Trust  Fund. To  the extent  that such  losses are  not
       covered  by  the Credit  Support,  if  any,  described in  the  related
       Prospectus  Supplement, such losses will be borne, at least in part, by
       the holders of one or more  classes of the Certificates of the  related
       series. See "Description of Credit Support" and "Rating."

       Risks Associated with Mortgage Loans and Mortgaged Properties

            Mortgage  loans made  with respect  to  multifamily or  commercial
       property may entail risks of  delinquency and foreclosure, and risks of
       loss  in  the  event  thereof,  that are  greater  than  similar  risks
       associated with single  family property. See "Description of  the Trust
       Funds--Assets." The ability of a mortgagor  to repay a loan secured  by
       an  income-producing property typically is dependent primarily upon the
       successful  operation  of  such property  rather  than  any independent
       income   or  assets   of  the   mortgagor;  thus,   the  value   of  an
       income-producing  property is  directly related  to  the net  operating
       income  derived from  such  property.  In contrast,  the  ability of  a
       mortgagor  to  repay  a  single  family  loan  typically  is  dependent
       primarily  upon the  mortgagor's  household  income,  rather  than  the
       capacity  of  the property  to  produce  income;  thus, other  than  in
       geographical  areas where  employment is  dependent  upon a  particular
       employer or  an industry, the  mortgagor's income tends not  to reflect
       directly the  value of  such property. A  decline in the  net operating
       income of  an income-producing  property  will likely  affect both  the
       performance of the  related loan as  well as  the liquidation value  of
       such property,  whereas a  decline in the  income of  a mortgagor  on a
       single  family  property  will likely  affect  the  performance of  the
       related loan but may not affect the liquidation value of such property.
       Moreover, a decline in  the value of a Mortgaged Property will increase
       the  risk of  loss  particularly  with respect  to  any related  junior
       Mortgage Loan. See "--Junior Mortgage Loans."

            The performance of a mortgage loan secured by an  income-producing
       property leased by  the mortgagor to tenants as well as the liquidation
       value of such  property may be dependent upon the  business operated by
       such tenants in connection with such  property, the creditworthiness of
       such  tenants or  both;  the risks  associated with  such loans  may be
       offset by the number of tenants or, if applicable, a diversity of types
       of business operated by such tenants.

            It is anticipated that a substantial portion of the Mortgage Loans
       included in any Trust Fund will be nonrecourse loans or loans for which
       recourse may be restricted or unenforceable, as to which, in  the event
       of mortgagor  default, recourse  may be had  only against  the specific
       property and such other assets, if any,  as have been pledged to secure
       the related Mortgage 
       Loan. With  respect to those  Mortgage Loans that provide  for recourse
       against  the  mortgagor and  its  assets  generally,  there can  be  no
       assurance  that such  recourse will ensure  a recovery in  respect of a
       defaulted  Mortgage  Loan greater  than  the liquidation  value  of the
       related Mortgaged Property.

            Further,  the concentration of default, foreclosure and loss risks
       in individual mortgagors  or Mortgage Loans in a  particular Trust Fund
       or the related Mortgaged Properties  will generally be greater than for
       pools of  single family  loans both  because the  Mortgage Assets  in a
       Trust Fund will  generally consist of  a smaller  number of loans  than
       would  a single family  pool of  comparable aggregate  unpaid principal
       balance  and  because of  the  higher principal  balance  of individual
       Mortgage Loans. Mortgage Assets in a  Trust Fund may consist of only  a
       limited number  of Mortgage  Loans and/or  relate to  Leases to only  a
       single Lessee or a limited number of Lessees.

            If applicable, certain  legal aspects of the Mortgage  Loans for a
       series of  Certificates  may be  described  in the  related  Prospectus
       Supplement. See also  "Certain Legal Aspects of the  Mortgage Loans and
       the Leases" herein.

       Risks Associated with Commercial Loans and Leases

            If  so  described  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,  each
       mortgagor under a Commercial Loan may be an entity created by the owner
       or  purchaser of  the  related  Commercial Property  solely  to own  or
       purchase such property, in part to  isolate the property from the debts
       and liabilities of such owner or purchaser. Unless otherwise specified,
       each such Commercial  Loan will represent  a nonrecourse obligation  of
       the related mortgagor  secured by the lien of the  related Mortgage and
       the related Lease  Assignments. Whether or not such  loans are recourse
       or nonrecourse obligations, it is not expected that the mortgagors will
       have any  significant assets other  than the Commercial  Properties and
       the related  Leases, which  will be  pledged to the  Trustee under  the
       related Agreement.  Therefore, the payment  of amounts due on  any such
       Commercial Loans,  and, consequently, the  payment of principal  of and
       interest on the  related Certificates, will depend primarily  or solely
       on rental payments by the Lessees. Such rental payments will,  in turn,
       depend on continued occupancy by,  and/or the creditworthiness of, such
       Lessees, which in  either case may be  adversely affected by  a general
       economic downturn or  an adverse change  in their financial  condition.
       Moreover,  to the  extent a  Commercial Property  was designed  for the
       needs of  a specific type  of tenant (e.g.,  a nursing  home, hospital,
       hotel or motel), the value  of such property in the event of  a default
       by the Lessee or the early  termination of such Lease may be  adversely
       affected because of difficulty in re-leasing the property to a suitable
       substitute  lessee  or, if  re-leasing  to  such  a substitute  is  not
       possible, because of the cost of altering the property for another more
       marketable  use. As  a  result,  without the  benefit  of the  Lessee's
       continued  support of the  Commercial Property, and  absent significant
       amortization of the  Commercial Loan, if such loan is foreclosed on and
       the Commercial Property  liquidated following a lease  default, the net
       proceeds might be insufficient  to cover the outstanding  principal and
       interest owing on  such loan, thereby increasing the  risk that holders
       of the Certificates will suffer some loss.

       Balloon Payments

            Certain of the Mortgage Loans (the "Balloon Mortgage Loans") as of
       the  Cut-off  Date may  not  be fully  amortizing  over their  terms to
       maturity  and, thus, will require substantial principal payments (i.e.,
       balloon payments) at their stated maturity. Mortgage Loans with balloon
       payments involve  a greater  degree of  risk because  the ability  of a
       mortgagor  to make  a balloon  payment typically  will depend  upon its
       ability  either to  timely  refinance the  loan or  to timely  sell the
       related Mortgaged  Property. The ability  of a mortgagor  to accomplish
       either  of  these  goals  will be  affected  by  a  number of  factors,
       including the level of available mortgage interest rates at the time of
       sale or  refinancing, the mortgagor's  equity in the  related Mortgaged
       Property,   the  financial  condition  and  operating  history  of  the
       mortgagor and the  related Mortgaged Property,  tax laws, rent  control
       laws (with  respect to certain  Multifamily Properties and  mobile home
       parks), reimbursement rates (with respect to certain hospitals, nursing
       homes  and  convalescent homes),  renewability  of operating  licenses,
       prevailing general economic  conditions and the availability  of credit
       for  commercial or  multifamily real  properties, as  the case  may be,
       generally.

       Junior Mortgage Loans

            To  the extent  specified in  the  related Prospectus  Supplement,
       certain  of the  Mortgage  Loans  may be  secured  primarily by  junior
       mortgages. In the case of liquidation, Mortgage Loans secured by junior
       mortgages are entitled  to satisfaction from proceeds  that remain from
       the sale  of the  related Mortgaged Property  after the  mortgage loans
       senior to such  Mortgage Loans have  been satisfied.  If there are  not
       sufficient  funds to  satisfy  such junior  Mortgage  Loans and  senior
       mortgage  loans,   such  Mortgage  Loan   would  suffer  a   loss  and,
       accordingly, one or more classes  of Certificates would bear such loss.
       Therefore, any  risks of  deficiencies associated  with first  Mortgage
       Loans  will be  greater  with  respect to  junior  Mortgage Loans.  See
       "--Risks Associated with Mortgage Loans and Mortgaged Properties."

       Obligor Default

            If so specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement, in order to
       maximize  recoveries on  defaulted  Whole Loans,  a Master  Servicer, a
       Sub-Servicer or a Special Servicer will be permitted (within prescribed
       parameters) to extend and modify Whole Loans  that are in default or as
       to which  a payment default  is imminent, including in  particular with
       respect  to  balloon  payments.  In  addition,  a  Master  Servicer,  a
       Sub-Servicer or a  Special Servicer may receive a workout  fee based on
       receipts from or  proceeds of such Whole  Loans. While any such  entity
       generally  will be  required to  determine that  any such  extension or
       modification is  reasonably likely to  produce a greater recovery  on a
       present value  basis than liquidation,  there can be no  assurance that
       such flexibility with respect to extensions or modifications or payment
       of a workout  fee will increase the  present value of receipts  from or
       proceeds of Whole Loans that  are in default or  as to which a  payment
       default is  imminent.  Additionally, if  so  specified in  the  related
       Prospectus Supplement, certain  of the Mortgage  Loans included in  the
       Mortgage Pool for a Series may have been subject to workouts or similar
       arrangements following periods of delinquency and default.

       Mortgagor Type

            Mortgage  Loans  made  to  partnerships,  corporations   or  other
       entities may entail risks of loss from delinquency and foreclosure that
       are greater than those of single family mortgage loans. The mortgagor's
       sophistication and form of organization may increase the likelihood  of
       protracted litigation or bankruptcy in default situations.

       Credit Support Limitations

            The  Prospectus Supplement  for  a  series  of  Certificates  will
       describe  any Credit  Support  in  the related  Trust  Fund, which  may
       include  letters of  credit,  insurance  policies, guarantees,  reserve
       funds or other types of credit support, or combinations thereof. Use of
       Credit  Support will  be  subject  to  the conditions  and  limitations
       described  herein and in  the related Prospectus  Supplement. Moreover,
       such  Credit Support may  not cover all potential  losses or risks; for
       example, Credit Support may  or may not cover fraud or  negligence by a
       mortgage loan originator or other parties.

            A  series of  Certificates  may  include one  or  more classes  of
       Subordinate Certificates (which  may include Offered Certificates),  if
       so   provided  in   the   related   Prospectus   Supplement.   Although
       subordination  is intended  to reduce  the  risk to  holders of  Senior
       Certificates of delinquent distributions or ultimate losses, the amount
       of  subordination  will  be  limited  and  may  decline  under  certain
       circumstances.  In  addition,  if principal  payments  on  one or  more
       classes of Certificates  of a series are  made in a specified  order of
       priority, any  limits with  respect to the  aggregate amount  of claims
       under any related Credit Support  may be exhausted before the principal
       of the lower priority classes of  Certificates of such series has  been
       repaid. As a result, the impact of significant losses and shortfalls on
       the Assets may fall primarily upon those classes of Certificates having
       a lower  priority of payment.  Moreover, if  a form  of Credit  Support
       covers more than one series  of Certificates (each, a "Covered Trust"),
       holders of Certificates evidencing an  interest in a Covered Trust will
       be subject to  the risk that such  Credit Support will be  exhausted by
       the claims of other Covered Trusts.

            The amount of any applicable Credit Support supporting one or more
       classes of Offered  Certificates, including the subordination of one or
       more  classes of  Certificates,  will  be determined  on  the basis  of
       criteria established  by  each Rating  Agency  rating such  classes  of
       Certificates  based on  an assumed  level  of defaults,  delinquencies,
       other losses or other factors. There can, however, be no assurance that
       the loss experience on the related Mortgage Assets will not exceed such
       assumed levels. See "--Limited Nature of  Ratings," "Description of the
       Certificates" and "Description of Credit Support."

            Regardless of the  form of credit enhancement provided, the amount
       of coverage will be limited in amount and in most cases will be subject
       to periodic  reduction in  accordance with a  schedule or  formula. The
       Master  Servicer will  generally be permitted  to reduce,  terminate or
       substitute all or a portion of the credit enhancement for any series of
       Certificates,  if the  applicable  Rating  Agency  indicates  that  the
       then-current rating thereof will not be  adversely affected. The rating
       of any  series of Certificates by  any applicable Rating  Agency may be
       lowered  following the  initial issuance  thereof  as a  result of  the
       downgrading  of  the  obligations  of  any  applicable  credit  support
       provider, or  as  a result  of losses  on the  related Mortgage  Assets
       substantially in  excess  of the  levels  contemplated by  such  Rating
       Agency  at  the  time of  its  initial  rating  analysis. None  of  the
       Depositor, the Master Servicer or any of their affiliates will have any
       obligation to replace or supplement  any credit enhancement, or to take
       any other action to maintain any rating of any series of Certificates.

       Subordination of the Subordinate Certificates; Effect of Losses on the
       Assets

            The  rights   of   Subordinate   Certificateholders   to   receive
       distributions to which they would otherwise be entitled with respect to
       the Assets will be subordinate to the rights of the Master Servicer (to
       the  extent  that  the  Master  Servicer is  paid  its  servicing  fee,
       including any unpaid servicing  fees with respect to one or  more prior
       Due Periods, and  is reimbursed for  certain unreimbursed advances  and
       unreimbursed liquidation expenses) and the Senior Certificateholders to
       the extent  described herein. As  a result of the  foregoing, investors
       must be prepared to bear the risk that they may be subject to delays in
       payment  and  may  not   recover  their  initial  investments  in   the
       Subordinate     Certificates.      See     "Description      of     the
       Certificates--General" and "--Allocation of Losses and Shortfalls."

            The  yields on  the  Subordinate  Certificates  may  be  extremely
       sensitive to the  loss experience of the  Assets and the timing  of any
       such losses. If the actual rate and amount of losses experienced by the
       Assets exceed  the  rate  and  amount of  such  losses  assumed  by  an
       investor, the yields to maturity on the Subordinate Certificates may be
       lower than anticipated.

       Enforceability

            Mortgages  may contain  a due-on-sale  clause,  which permits  the
       lender to accelerate the maturity of the Mortgage Loan if the mortgagor
       sells,  transfers or  conveys  the related  Mortgaged  Property or  its
       interest  in  the  Mortgaged  Property. Mortgages  may  also  include a
       debt-acceleration  clause, which permits  the lender to  accelerate the
       debt upon  a monetary  or non-monetary default  of the  mortgagor. Such
       clauses  are generally enforceable  subject to certain  exceptions. The
       courts of all states will enforce clauses providing for acceleration in
       the  event of  a material  payment default.  The equity  courts  of any
       state, however,  may refuse the  foreclosure of  a mortgage or  deed of
       trust when an acceleration of  the indebtedness would be inequitable or
       unjust   or   the   circumstances   would   render   the   acceleration
       unconscionable.

            If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Mortgage
       Loans will be  secured by an assignment of leases and rents pursuant to
       which the mortgagor typically assigns  its right, title and interest as
       landlord under  the leases  on the related  Mortgaged Property  and the
       income  derived therefrom  to the  lender as  further security  for the
       related Mortgage Loan,  while retaining a license to  collect rents for
       so long as  there is no default.  In the event the  mortgagor defaults,
       the license  terminates and  the lender is  entitled to  collect rents.
       Such  assignments are  typically not  perfected  as security  interests
       prior  to actual  possession of  the cash  flows. Some  state laws  may
       require that the  lender take possession of the  Mortgaged Property and
       obtain a judicial appointment of a receiver before becoming entitled to
       collect the rents.  In addition, if  bankruptcy or similar  proceedings
       are commenced by or in  respect of the mortgagor, the  lender's ability
       to  collect the  rents may  be adversely  affected. See  "Certain Legal
       Aspects of the Mortgage Loans and the Leases--Leases and Rents."

       Environmental Risks

            Real  property pledged  as security  for  a mortgage  loan may  be
       subject  to certain  environmental  risks. Under  the  laws of  certain
       states, contamination of  a property  may give  rise to a  lien on  the
       property to assure the costs of cleanup. In several states, such a lien
       has  priority  over the  lien  of  an  existing mortgage  against  such
       property. In  addition, under  the laws  of some states  and under  the
       federal   Comprehensive   Environmental  Response,   Compensation   and
       Liability Act of 1980 ("CERCLA") a lender may be liable, as  an "owner"
       or "operator," for costs of addressing releases or threatened  releases
       of hazardous substances that require remedy at a property, if agents or
       employees  of  the lender  have  become  sufficiently involved  in  the
       operations  of  the  mortgagor,  regardless  of   whether  or  not  the
       environmental damage  or threat was caused  by a prior owner.  A lender
       also  risks  such liability  on  foreclosure  of  the mortgage.  Unless
       otherwise  specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, each Pooling
       and Servicing Agreement will provide  that none of the Master Servicer,
       the Sub-Servicer or the Special Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trust
       Fund, may  acquire title  to a Mortgaged  Property securing  a Mortgage
       Loan  or  take  over  its  operation unless  the  Master  Servicer  has
       previously determined,  based upon  a report prepared  by a  person who
       regularly  conducts  environmental  audits,  that:  (i)  the  Mortgaged
       Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws, and there
       are no circumstances present at  the Mortgaged Property relating to the
       use,  management or  disposal of  any  hazardous substances,  hazardous
       materials,   wastes,   or   petroleum   based   materials   for   which
       investigation,   testing,   monitoring,    containment,   clean-up   or
       remediation could be required under any federal, state or local law  or
       regulation; or (ii) if the  Mortgaged Property is not so  in compliance
       or such  circumstances are  so present, then  it would  be in  the best
       economic interest of  the Trust Fund to acquire title  to the Mortgaged
       Property  and further to  take such actions  as would  be necessary and
       appropriate   to  effect  such   compliance  and/or  respond   to  such
       circumstances. See "Certain Legal Aspects of the Mortgage Loans and the
       Leases--Environmental Legislation."

       ERISA Considerations

            Generally, ERISA applies  to investments made by  employee benefit
       plans and transactions  involving the assets of such plans.  Due to the
       complexity   of  regulations  which   govern  such  plans,  prospective
       investors  that are  subject to  ERISA are  urged to consult  their own
       counsel regarding  consequences under ERISA  of acquisition,  ownership
       and disposition of the Offered Certificates of any series.

       Certain Federal Income Tax Considerations Regarding REMIC Residual
       Certificates

            Except  as provided in  the Prospectus Supplement,  REMIC Residual
       Certificates,  if offered hereunder,  are anticipated to  have "phantom
       income" associated with them. That is, taxable income is anticipated to
       be allocated to the  REMIC Residual Certificates in the  early years of
       the  existence  of  the  related  REMIC, even  if  the  REMIC  Residual
       Certificates receive no  distributions from the  related REMIC, with  a
       corresponding   amount  of  losses  allocated  to  the  REMIC  Residual
       Certificates in later years. Accordingly,  the present value of the tax
       detriments  associated   with  the  REMIC   Residual  Certificates  may
       significantly  exceed the  present  value of  the tax  benefits related
       thereto,  and  the REMIC  Residual  Certificates  may  have a  negative
       "value." Moreover, the  REMIC Residual Certificates  will in effect  be
       allocated an amount of gross  income equal to the non-interest expenses
       of the REMIC,  but such expenses will  be deductible by holders  of the
       REMIC  Residual  Certificates  that are  individuals  only  as itemized
       deductions  (and be  subject  to  all  the  limitations  applicable  to
       itemized  deductions). Accordingly,  investment in  the REMIC  Residual
       Certificates  will  generally not  be suitable  for individuals  or for
       certain  pass-through entities, such as partnerships or S corporations,
       that have individuals  as partners or shareholders. In  addition, REMIC
       Residual  Certificates are subject to certain restrictions on transfer.
       Finally,  prospective purchasers of a REMIC Residual Certificate should
       be aware that recently issued final regulations provide restrictions on
       the ability to  mark-to-market certain "negative value"  REMIC residual
       interests. See "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences--REMICs."

       Control

            Under  certain circumstances,  the  consent  or  approval  of  the
       holders of a  specified percentage of the aggregate Certificate Balance
       of  all outstanding  Certificates of  a  series or  a similar  means of
       allocating  decision-making   under  the  related   Agreement  ("Voting
       Rights") will be required to direct, and will be sufficient to bind all
       Certificateholders  of  such  series  to,  certain  actions,  including
       directing the Special  Servicer or the Master Servicer  with respect to
       actions  to be  taken with respect  to certain  Mortgage Loans  and REO
       Properties and amending the related Agreement in certain circumstances.
       See  "Description of the Agreements--Events of Default," "--Rights Upon
       Event of Default," "--Amendment" and "--List of Certificateholders."

       Book-Entry Registration

            If so provided  in the Prospectus Supplement, one  or more classes
       of  the Certificates  will  be  initially represented  by  one or  more
       certificates registered in  the name of Cede, the nominee  for DTC, and
       will not be registered in the names of  the Certificateholders or their
       nominees. Because of this, unless and until Definitive Certificates are
       issued, Certificateholders  will not  be recognized  by the Trustee  as
       "Certificateholders"  (as  that term  is  to  be  used in  the  related
       Agreement). Hence, until such time, Certificateholders will  be able to
       exercise the rights  of Certificateholders only indirectly  through DTC
       and   its  participating   organizations.  See   "Description  of   the
       Certificates--Book-Entry Registration and Definitive Certificates."

                            DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUST FUNDS
       Assets

            The primary assets of each  Trust Fund (the "Assets") will include
       (i)  multifamily  and/or  commercial   mortgage  loans  (the  "Mortgage
       Loans"),  (ii)  mortgage participations,  pass-through  certificates or
       other  mortgage-backed securities evidencing interests in or secured by
       one  or   more  Mortgage   Loans  or   other  similar   participations,
       certificates or  securities ("MBS"),  (iii) direct  obligations of  the
       United  States, agencies thereof or agencies  created thereby which are
       not subject to redemption prior to maturity at the option of the issuer
       and  are  (a)  interest-bearing  securities,  (b)  non-interest-bearing
       securities,  (c)  originally  interest-bearing  securities  from  which
       coupons  representing  the  right  to  payment  of interest  have  been
       removed,  or (d)  interest-bearing securities from  which the  right to
       payment of principal has been removed (the "Government Securities"), or
       (iv) a combination of Mortgage Loans, MBS and Government Securities. As
       used herein, "Mortgage  Loans" refers to both whole  Mortgage Loans and
       Mortgage Loans underlying MBS. Mortgage Loans that secure, or interests
       in which  are evidenced  by, MBS  are herein  sometimes referred to  as
       Underlying  Mortgage  Loans.  Mortgage Loans  that  are  not Underlying
       Mortgage Loans are sometimes referred to as "Whole Loans." Any mortgage
       participations, pass-through certificates or other 
       asset-backed certificates  in which  an MBS  evidences  an interest  or
       which secure an  MBS are sometimes referred to herein also as MBS or as
       "Underlying  MBS."  Mortgage Loans  and MBS  are sometimes  referred to
       herein as "Mortgage Assets." The Mortgage Assets will not be guaranteed
       or insured by Morgan Stanley Capital I Inc. (the "Depositor") or any of
       its   affiliates  or,  unless  otherwise  provided  in  the  Prospectus
       Supplement, by  any governmental  agency or  instrumentality or  by any
       other  person.  Each  Asset  will  be selected  by  the  Depositor  for
       inclusion in a  Trust Fund from among those  purchased, either directly
       or indirectly, from  a prior holder thereof (an  "Asset Seller"), which
       may  be an  affiliate of  the Depositor and,  with respect  to Mortgage
       Assets, which prior  holder may or  may not be  the originator of  such
       Mortgage Loan or the issuer of such MBS.

            Unless otherwise  specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement,
       the Certificates will be  entitled to payment  only from the assets  of
       the related Trust Fund and will not be entitled to payments  in respect
       of the assets of any other trust  fund established by the Depositor. If
       specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement, the assets  of a Trust
       Fund will  consist  of certificates  representing beneficial  ownership
       interests in another trust fund that contains the Assets.

       Mortgage Loans

        General

            The  Mortgage Loans  will  be  secured by  liens  on, or  security
       interests  in,  Mortgaged  Properties  consisting  of  (i)  residential
       properties consisting  of five  or more  rental or  cooperatively-owned
       dwelling units  in high-rise,  mid-rise or  garden apartment  buildings
       ("Multifamily Properties" and  the related loans,  "Multifamily Loans")
       or  (ii) office buildings,  shopping centers, retail  stores, hotels or
       motels,  nursing   homes,  hospitals   or  other  health   care-related
       facilities,  mobile home  parks,  warehouse facilities,  mini-warehouse
       facilities  or self-storage  facilities, industrial  plants, congregate
       care facilities,  mixed use  or  other types  of commercial  properties
       ("Commercial  Properties" and  the related  loans, "Commercial  Loans")
       located,   unless  otherwise   specified  in  the   related  Prospectus
       Supplement, in any one of the fifty states, the District of Columbia or
       the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. To the extent specified in the related
       Prospectus Supplement, the  Mortgage Loans will be secured  by first or
       junior  mortgages  or   deeds  of  trust  or  other   similar  security
       instruments  creating a  first or  junior lien  on  Mortgaged Property.
       Multifamily  Property  may  include  mixed  commercial  and residential
       structures  and  may  include  apartment  buildings  owned  by  private
       cooperative  housing   corporations  ("Cooperatives").   The  Mortgaged
       Properties may  include leasehold interests in properties, the title to
       which is held by third party lessors. Unless otherwise specified in the
       Prospectus Supplement, the  term of any such leasehold  will exceed the
       term of the related mortgage note by at least five years. Each Mortgage
       Loan will  have been  originated by a  person (the  "Originator") other
       than the Depositor.  The related Prospectus Supplement will indicate if
       any Originator  is an  affiliate of the  Depositor. The  Mortgage Loans
       will be evidenced by promissory notes (the "Mortgage Notes") secured by
       mortgages or  deeds of trust (the  "Mortgages") creating a lien  on the
       Mortgaged Properties.  Mortgage Loans will generally also be secured by
       an  assignment of leases and rents  and/or operating or other cash flow
       guarantees relating to the Mortgage Loan.

        Leases

            To the extent specified in  the related Prospectus Supplement, the
       Commercial Properties may be leased to Lessees that respectively occupy
       all  or a portion of  such properties. Pursuant  to a Lease Assignment,
       the  related mortgagor  may assign  its rights,  title and  interest as
       lessor under each Lease and the income derived therefrom to the related
       mortgagee, while retaining a  license to collect the rents for  so long
       as  there  is  no  default.  If the  mortgagor  defaults,  the  license
       terminates and the mortgagee  or its agent  is entitled to collect  the
       rents  from  the related  Lessee  or  Lessees  for application  to  the
       monetary obligations of the mortgagor.  State law may limit or restrict
       the enforcement of the Lease Assignments  by a mortgagee until it takes
       possession  of  the related  Mortgaged  Property and/or  a  receiver is
       appointed. See  "Certain Legal  Aspects of the  Mortgage Loans  and the
       Leases--Leases  and Rents." Alternatively,  to the extent  specified in
       the related Prospectus Supplement, the mortgagor  and the mortgagee may
       agree that payments  under Leases are to be made directly to the Master
       Servicer.

            To the extent described in  the related Prospectus Supplement, the
       Leases may require  the Lessees to pay  rent that is sufficient  in the
       aggregate to cover all scheduled  payments of principal and interest on
       the related Mortgage Loans and, in  certain cases, their pro rata share
       of the  operating expenses,  insurance premiums  and real  estate taxes
       associated with the  Mortgaged Properties.  Certain of  the Leases  may
       require the mortgagor to bear costs associated with  structural repairs
       and/or  the  maintenance of  the  exterior  or  other portions  of  the
       Mortgaged  Property  or provide  for  certain limits  on  the aggregate
       amount  of  operating  expenses, insurance  premiums,  taxes  and other
       expenses that  the Lessees are required to pay.  If so specified in the
       related Prospectus Supplement, under certain circumstances  the Lessees
       may  be permitted  to  set  off their  rental  obligations against  the
       obligations of  the mortgagors under  the Leases. In those  cases where
       payments under the Leases (net 
       of any operating  expenses payable by the mortgagors)  are insufficient
       to pay  all of  the scheduled  principal  and interest  on the  related
       Mortgage Loans,  the mortgagors  must rely on  other income  or sources
       (including  security  deposits)  generated  by  the  related  Mortgaged
       Property to make payments  on the related Mortgage Loan. To  the extent
       specified  in  the  related   Prospectus  Supplement,  some  Commercial
       Properties may be leased entirely to one Lessee. In such cases,  absent
       the availability  of other funds,  the mortgagor must rely  entirely on
       rent paid  by such Lessee in order for the  mortgagor to pay all of the
       scheduled principal and interest on the related Commercial Loan. To the
       extent specified in  the related Prospectus Supplement, certain  of the
       Leases may expire  prior to the stated maturity of the related Mortgage
       Loan. In such cases, upon expiration  of the Leases the mortgagors will
       have to look  to alternative sources of income,  including rent payment
       by any new  Lessees or  proceeds from  the sale or  refinancing of  the
       Mortgaged Property, to cover the payments of principal and interest due
       on such Mortgage Loans unless the Lease is renewed. As specified in the
       related Prospectus Supplement, certain  of the Leases may  provide that
       upon the occurrence  of a casualty affecting a  Mortgaged Property, the
       Lessee  will  have  the  right  to  terminate  its  Lease,  unless  the
       mortgagor, as lessor,  is able to  cause the Mortgaged  Property to  be
       restored within a specified period  of time. Certain Leases may provide
       that it is the lessor's responsibility, while other Leases provide that
       it is the  Lessee's responsibility, to  restore the Mortgaged  Property
       after a casualty to its  original condition. Certain Leases may provide
       a right of termination to the related Lessee if a  taking of a material
       or specified percentage  of the leased space in  the Mortgaged Property
       occurs, or  if  the ingress  or egress  to the  leased  space has  been
       materially impaired.

        Default and Loss Considerations with Respect to the Mortgage Loans

            Mortgage loans  secured by  commercial and  multifamily properties
       are  markedly  different  from  owner-occupied  single  family mortgage
       loans.  The repayment  of loans  secured by  commercial or  multifamily
       properties is typically dependent upon the successful operation of such
       property rather  than upon  the liquidation value  of the  real estate.
       Unless otherwise specified  in the Prospectus Supplement,  the Mortgage
       Loans  will be  non-recourse loans,  which means  that,  absent special
       facts, the mortgagee may look only to the Net Operating Income from the
       property for repayment  of the mortgage debt,  and not to any  other of
       the  mortgagor's assets,  in  the  event  of the  mortgagor's  default.
       Lenders typically look  to the Debt  Service Coverage Ratio  of a  loan
       secured by  income-producing property  as an  important measure  of the
       risk  of default on such a loan. The "Debt Service Coverage Ratio" of a
       Mortgage Loan  at any  given time  is the  ratio of  the Net  Operating
       Income for a  twelve-month period to the annualized  scheduled payments
       on  the Mortgage  Loan. "Net  Operating  Income" means,  for any  given
       period,   unless  otherwise   specified  in   the  related   Prospectus
       Supplement,  the  total  operating revenues  derived  from  a Mortgaged
       Property  during  such  period,  minus  the  total  operating  expenses
       incurred in respect of such Mortgaged Property during such period other
       than (i)  non-cash items  such as  depreciation and  amortization, (ii)
       capital expenditures  and (iii)  debt service on  loans secured  by the
       Mortgaged Property.  The Net Operating  Income of a  Mortgaged Property
       will fluctuate over time and may be sufficient or insufficient to cover
       debt service on the related Mortgage Loan at any given time.

            As  the primary component  of Net Operating  Income, rental income
       (as   well  as  maintenance  payments  from  tenant-stockholders  of  a
       Cooperative) is subject  to the vagaries of the  applicable real estate
       market and/or  business climate. Properties  typically leased, occupied
       or used on a short-term  basis, such as health care-related facilities,
       hotels and motels, and mini-warehouse and self-storage facilities, tend
       to be affected more rapidly by changes in market or business conditions
       than do properties leased, occupied or used for longer periods, such as
       (typically) warehouses, retail stores, office buildings  and industrial
       plants. Commercial  Loans may  be secured  by owner-occupied  Mortgaged
       Properties  or  Mortgaged   Properties  leased  to  a   single  tenant.
       Accordingly, a decline  in the financial condition of  the mortgagor or
       single tenant,  as applicable,  may have  a disproportionately  greater
       effect on the Net Operating  Income from such Mortgaged Properties than
       would be  the case with  respect to Mortgaged Properties  with multiple
       tenants.

            Changes in the  expense components of Net Operating  Income due to
       the general  economic climate or  economic conditions in a  locality or
       industry segment, such as increases  in interest rates, real estate and
       personal property  tax rates  and other  operating expenses,  including
       energy costs;  changes in  governmental rules,  regulations and  fiscal
       policies, including environmental legislation; and acts of God may also
       affect the  risk of  default on the  related Mortgage  Loan. As  may be
       further described in the  related Prospectus Supplement, in  some cases
       leases of Mortgaged Properties may provide that the Lessee, rather than
       the mortgagor,  is  responsible for  payment of  some or  all of  these
       expenses; however, because leases are  subject to default risks as well
       when  a tenant's income is insufficient to cover its rent and operating
       expenses, the existence  of such "net of expense"  provisions will only
       temper,  not  eliminate,  the  impact  of  expense  increases  on   the
       performance of the related Mortgage Loan. See "--Leases" above.

            While the  duration of  leases and the  existence of  any "net  of
       expense"  provisions are often viewed as  the primary considerations in
       evaluating the  credit  risk  of  mortgage  loans  secured  by  certain
       income-producing properties, such risk may 

       be affected equally  or to a  greater extent by  changes in  government
       regulation  of the  operator of  the property.  Examples of  the latter
       include  mortgage loans secured  by health care-related  facilities and
       hospitals, the  income from which  and the operating expenses  of which
       are subject to  state and/or federal regulations, such  as Medicare and
       Medicaid,  and multifamily properties and mobile  home parks, which may
       be subject to state  or local rent  control regulation and, in  certain
       cases,  restrictions  on  changes  in  use  of  the  property.  Low-and
       moderate-income  housing  in   particular  may  be  subject   to  legal
       limitations and regulations but, because of such  regulations, may also
       be less sensitive to fluctuations in market rents generally.

            The Debt Service Coverage  Ratio should not be relied  upon as the
       sole measure of the  risk of default of any loan,  however, since other
       factors may outweigh  a high Debt Service Coverage  Ratio. With respect
       to a  Balloon Mortgage  Loan, for  example, the  risk of  default as  a
       result  of the  unavailability  of a  source  of funds  to finance  the
       related balloon  payment at maturity  on terms comparable to  or better
       than those  of such  Balloon Mortgage Loans  could be  significant even
       though the related Debt Service Coverage Ratio is high.

            The liquidation value  of any Mortgaged Property  may be adversely
       affected by risks  generally incident  to interests  in real  property,
       including declines in rental or occupancy rates. Lenders  generally use
       the Loan-to-Value Ratio of a mortgage loan as a measure of risk of loss
       if a property must be liquidated upon a default by the mortgagor.

            Appraised  values of income-producing  properties may be  based on
       the  market  comparison  method  (recent  resale  value  of  comparable
       properties at the  date of the appraisal), the  cost replacement method
       (the  cost  of  replacing  the  property  at  such  date),  the  income
       capitalization method (a projection of value  based upon the property's
       projected net cash flow), or upon a selection  from or interpolation of
       the values derived  from such methods. Each of  these appraisal methods
       presents analytical  challenges. It  is often  difficult to find  truly
       comparable properties  that have  recently been  sold; the  replacement
       cost of a property may have little to do with its current market value;
       and income capitalization is inherently based on inexact projections of
       income and expense and  the selection of an appropriate  capitalization
       rate.  Where more  than one  of  these appraisal  methods are  used and
       create significantly different  results, or where a  high Loan-to-Value
       Ratio accompanies a  high Debt Service Coverage Ratio  (or vice versa),
       the analysis of default and loss risks is even more difficult.

            While the Depositor believes that the foregoing considerations are
       important  factors  that  generally  distinguish  the  Multifamily  and
       Commercial Loans from single family  mortgage loans and provide insight
       to the risks associated with  income-producing real estate, there is no
       assurance that  such factors will  in fact have been  considered by the
       Originators of the  Multifamily and Commercial Loans, or  that, for any
       of  such Mortgage  Loans,  they  are complete  or  relevant. See  "Risk
       Factors--Risks   Associated   with   Mortgage   Loans   and   Mortgaged
       Properties,"   "--Balloon   Payments,"   "--Junior   Mortgage   Loans,"
       "--Obligor Default" and "--Mortgagor Type."

        Loan-to-Value Ratio

            The "Loan-to-Value Ratio" of a Mortgage  Loan at any given time is
       the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of the then outstanding principal
       balance of  the Mortgage Loan  to the  Value of  the related  Mortgaged
       Property. The "Value" of a  Mortgaged Property, other than with respect
       to Refinance  Loans, is generally the lesser of (a) the appraised value
       determined in an appraisal obtained by the originator at origination of
       such loan and (b) the sales  price for such property. "Refinance Loans"
       are loans made to refinance  existing loans. Unless otherwise set forth
       in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement, the  Value  of  the Mortgaged
       Property  securing  a Refinance  Loan  is the  appraised  value thereof
       determined in an appraisal obtained at  the time of origination of  the
       Refinance  Loan. The Value  of a Mortgaged  Property as of  the date of
       initial issuance of the related series of Certificates may be less than
       the value  at origination and  will fluctuate from  time to  time based
       upon changes in economic conditions and the real estate market.

        Mortgage Loan Information in Prospectus Supplements

            Each Prospectus  Supplement will  contain information,  as of  the
       date of  such Prospectus Supplement  and to the extent  then applicable
       and specifically known  to the Depositor, with respect  to the Mortgage
       Loans,  including (i) the  aggregate outstanding principal  balance and
       the largest, smallest and average outstanding principal balance  of the
       Mortgage Loans as  of the  applicable Cut-off  Date, (ii)  the type  of
       property securing  the Mortgage  Loans (e.g.,  Multifamily Property  or
       Commercial Property  and the type  of property in each  such category),
       (iii) the weighted  average (by principal balance) of  the original and
       remaining terms  to maturity of  the Mortgage Loans, (iv)  the earliest
       and latest  origination date and  maturity date of the  Mortgage Loans,
       (v) the  weighted average (by  principal balance) of  the Loan-to-Value
       Ratios at origination of the Mortgage Loans, (vi) the Mortgage Rates or
       range of Mortgage Rates and the weighted average Mortgage Rate borne by
       the Mortgage 
       Loans,  (vii)  the state  or  states  in which  most  of  the Mortgaged
       Properties   are  located,  (viii)  information  with  respect  to  the
       prepayment provisions, if any, of the Mortgage Loans, (ix) the weighted
       average Retained Interest,  if any, (x) with respect  to Mortgage Loans
       with adjustable Mortgage Rates ("ARM  Loans"), the index, the frequency
       of the adjustment dates, the  highest, lowest and weighted average note
       margin and  pass-through  margin,  and  the maximum  Mortgage  Rate  or
       monthly payment  variation at  the time of  any adjustment  thereof and
       over the life of the ARM Loan and the frequency of such monthly payment
       adjustments, (xi) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio either at origination
       or as  of a more recent date (or  both) and (xii) information regarding
       the  payment characteristics of  the Mortgage Loans,  including without
       limitation  balloon  payment  and other  amortization  provisions.  The
       related Prospectus  Supplement will  also  contain certain  information
       available to the Depositor with respect to the provisions of leases and
       the nature of tenants of the Mortgaged Properties and other information
       referred  to in a  general manner under  "--Mortgage Loans--Default and
       Loss Considerations  with  Respect to  the  Mortgage Loans"  above.  If
       specific information respecting the Mortgage  Loans is not known to the
       Depositor at the time Certificates  are initially offered, more general
       information  of the  nature described  above  will be  provided in  the
       Prospectus Supplement, and specific information  will be set forth in a
       report  which   will  be  available   to  purchasers  of   the  related
       Certificates  at or  before the  initial issuance  thereof and  will be
       filed as part of a Current  Report on Form 8-K with the  Securities and
       Exchange Commission within fifteen days after such initial issuance.

        Payment Provisions of the Mortgage Loans

            Unless otherwise specified  in the related Prospectus  Supplement,
       all of the  Mortgage Loans will (i) have  individual principal balances
       at origination of  not less than $25,000,  (ii) have original terms  to
       maturity of not  more than 40 years  and (iii) provide for  payments of
       principal, interest or both, on due dates that occur monthly, quarterly
       or  semi-annually or  at such  other interval  as  is specified  in the
       related  Prospectus Supplement. Each  Mortgage Loan may  provide for no
       accrual of interest  or for accrual of interest thereon  at an interest
       rate (a "Mortgage  Rate") that is fixed  over its term or  that adjusts
       from time to  time, or that  may be converted  from an adjustable  to a
       fixed  Mortgage Rate, or from  a fixed to  an adjustable Mortgage Rate,
       from time to  time pursuant to an election or as otherwise specified on
       the related  Mortgage Note, in  each case  as described in  the related
       Prospectus Supplement.  Each Mortgage  Loan may  provide for  scheduled
       payments  to maturity  or  payments that  adjust from  time to  time to
       accommodate changes in  the Mortgage Rate or to  reflect the occurrence
       of  certain  events, and  may  provide  for  negative  amortization  or
       accelerated  amortization, in  each case  as described  in the  related
       Prospectus  Supplement. Each Mortgage  Loan may be  fully amortizing or
       require a balloon payment due on its stated maturity date, in each case
       as described in the  related Prospectus Supplement. Each Mortgage  Loan
       may contain  prohibitions on  prepayment (a  "Lock-out Period"  and the
       date of expiration  thereof, a "Lock-out Date") or require payment of a
       premium  or a  yield  maintenance penalty  (a "Prepayment  Premium") in
       connection with a prepayment, in each case  as described in the related
       Prospectus  Supplement. In  the  event  that holders  of  any class  or
       classes of Offered Certificates will be entitled to all or a portion of
       any  Prepayment Premiums collected  in respect  of Mortgage  Loans, the
       related  Prospectus Supplement  will specify the  method or  methods by
       which any  such amounts  will be  allocated. A  Mortgage Loan  may also
       contain  provisions  entitling the  mortgagee  to  a share  of  profits
       realized from the  operation or disposition  of the Mortgaged  Property
       ("Equity  Participations"),  as  described  in  the  related Prospectus
       Supplement.  In the  event that  holders  of any  class  or classes  of
       Offered Certificates will be entitled to all  or a portion of an Equity
       Participation, the related Prospectus Supplement will specify the terms
       and provisions of the Equity Participation and the method or methods by
       which  distributions in  respect thereof will  be allocated  among such
       Certificates.

       MBS

            Any  MBS will  have been  issued pursuant  to a  participation and
       servicing  agreement,  a  pooling  and  servicing  agreement,  a  trust
       agreement, an  indenture or similar  agreement (an "MBS  Agreement"). A
       seller (the "MBS  Issuer") and/or servicer (the "MBS  Servicer") of the
       underlying Mortgage Loans  (or Underlying MBS)  will have entered  into
       the MBS Agreement with a trustee or a custodian under the MBS Agreement
       (the "MBS  Trustee"), if  any, or with  the original  purchaser of  the
       interest in the underlying Mortgage Loans or MBS evidenced by the MBS.

            Distributions of any principal or interest, as applicable, will be
       made  on  MBS  on  the   dates  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus
       Supplement. The  MBS  may  be  issued  in  one  or  more  classes  with
       characteristics similar  to the  classes of  Certificates described  in
       this Prospectus. Any  principal or interest distributions  will be made
       on the MBS by the  MBS Trustee or the MBS  Servicer. The MBS Issuer  or
       the MBS Servicer or another  person specified in the related Prospectus
       Supplement may have the right or obligation to repurchase or substitute
       assets  underlying  the  MBS  after  a  certain  date  or  under  other
       circumstances specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.

            Enhancement in the  form of reserve funds,  subordination or other
            forms  of  credit  support  similar  to  that  described  for  the
            Certificates under "Description of Credit Support" may be provided
            with respect to  the MBS. The type, characteristics  and amount of
            such  credit  support, if  any,  will  be  a function  of  certain
            characteristics  of the Mortgage Loans or Underlying MBS evidenced
            by or  securing such MBS and other factors and generally will have
            been  established for  the MBS  on  the basis  of requirements  of
            either any  Rating Agency that may  have assigned a rating  to the
            MBS or the initial purchasers of the MBS.

            The  Prospectus Supplement for a series of Certificates evidencing
       interests  in Mortgage  Assets that  include MBS  will specify,  to the
       extent available, (i) the aggregate approximate initial and outstanding
       principal amount or notional amount, as applicable, and type of the MBS
       to be included  in the Trust Fund, (ii) the original and remaining term
       to stated maturity of the MBS, if applicable, (iii) whether such MBS is
       entitled only  to interest payments,  only to principal payments  or to
       both,  (iv) the  pass-through or bond  rate of  the MBS or  formula for
       determining such rates, if any,  (v) the applicable payment  provisions
       for the  MBS, including,  but not limited  to, any  priorities, payment
       schedules and subordination features, (vi) the MBS Issuer, MBS Servicer
       and MBS  Trustee, as applicable,  (vii) certain characteristics  of the
       credit support, if any, such as subordination, reserve funds, insurance
       policies,  letters of  credit  or guarantees  relating  to the  related
       Underlying Mortgage Loans, the Underlying  MBS or directly to such MBS,
       (viii)  the terms  on which  the related  Underlying Mortgage  Loans or
       Underlying MBS for  such MBS  or the MBS  may, or are  required to,  be
       purchased prior  to their  maturity, (ix) the  terms on  which Mortgage
       Loans  or  Underlying  MBS  may  be  substituted  for  those originally
       underlying  the MBS,  (x)  the  servicing fees  payable  under the  MBS
       Agreement, (xi)  the type of  information in respect of  the Underlying
       Mortgage  Loans  described   under  "--Mortgage  Loans--Mortgage   Loan
       Information  in  Prospectus   Supplements"  above,  and  the   type  of
       information  in  respect  of  the  Underlying  MBS  described  in  this
       paragraph,  (xii) the characteristics of  any cash flow agreements that
       are  included as part of the trust fund evidenced or secured by the MBS
       and (xiii) whether the MBS is in certificated form,  book-entry form or
       held through a  depository such as The Depository  Trust Company or the
       Participants Trust Company.

       Government Securities

            The  Prospectus Supplement for a series of Certificates evidencing
       interests in Assets of a  Trust Fund that include Government Securities
       will specify,  to the extent  available, (i) the  aggregate approximate
       initial  and  outstanding  principal amounts  or  notional  amounts, as
       applicable, and  types of the  Government Securities to be  included in
       the  Trust  Fund, (ii)  the  original  and  remaining terms  to  stated
       maturity  of the Government  Securities, (iii) whether  such Government
       Securities are entitled  only to interest  payments, only to  principal
       payments  or  to  both,  (iv)  the interest  rates  of  the  Government
       Securities or  the formula  to determine  such rates,  if any,  (v) the
       applicable payment provisions for the Government Securities and (vi) to
       what extent, if  any, the obligation evidenced thereby is backed by the
       full faith and credit of the United States.

       Accounts

            Each Trust Fund will include  one or more accounts established and
       maintained on behalf of the Certificateholders into which the person or
       persons designated  in the related  Prospectus Supplement will,  to the
       extent described herein  and in such Prospectus Supplement  deposit all
       payments  and  collections received  or  advanced with  respect  to the
       Assets and  other assets  in the  Trust Fund.  Such an  account may  be
       maintained  as an interest  bearing or a  non-interest bearing account,
       and funds  held therein  may be  held as  cash or  invested in  certain
       short-term, investment  grade obligations, in each case as described in
       the   related   Prospectus   Supplement.  See   "Description   of   the
       Agreement--Certificate Account and Other Collection Accounts."

       Credit Support

            If so  provided in the  related Prospectus Supplement,  partial or
       full protection  against certain defaults  and losses on the  Assets in
       the  related  Trust Fund  may be  provided  to one  or more  classes of
       Certificates in the  related series in the form of subordination of one
       or more other  classes of Certificates in such series or by one or more
       other types of  credit support, such as  a letter of credit,  insurance
       policy, guarantee, reserve fund or another type of credit support, or a
       combination thereof (any such coverage with respect to the Certificates
       of any series, "Credit Support"). The amount and types of coverage, the
       identification of the entity providing the coverage (if applicable) and
       related information  with respect  to each type  of Credit  Support, if
       any,  will be described  in the Prospectus  Supplement for  a series of
       Certificates.  See  "Risk  Factors--Credit  Support  Limitations"   and
       "Description of Credit Support."

       Cash Flow Agreements

            If  so provided in  the related  Prospectus Supplement,  the Trust
            Fund may include guaranteed investment contracts pursuant to which
            moneys held in the funds  and accounts established for the related
            series  will be invested  at a specified rate.  The Trust Fund may
            also  include  certain  other agreements,  such  as  interest rate
            exchange  agreements,  interest  rate  cap  or  floor  agreements,
            currency  exchange agreements  or similar  agreements provided  to
            reduce  the effects  of interest  rate or  currency  exchange rate
            fluctuations  on  the  Assets  or   on  one  or  more  classes  of
            Certificates. (Currency exchange agreements  might be included  in
            the Trust Fund  if some  or all  of the Mortgage  Assets (such  as
            Mortgage Loans secured by Mortgaged Properties located outside the
            United  States) were denominated in a non-United States currency.)
            The principal terms of any such  guaranteed investment contract or
            other agreement  (any such  agreement, a  "Cash Flow  Agreement"),
            including, without limitation, provisions relating  to the timing,
            manner and amount  of payments thereunder and  provisions relating
            to the  termination thereof, will  be described in  the Prospectus
            Supplement  for the  related  series.  In  addition,  the  related
            Prospectus  Supplement  will  provide   certain  information  with
            respect to the obligor under any such Cash Flow Agreement.

                                   USE OF PROCEEDS

            The  net proceeds to be received from the sale of the Certificates
       will be  applied by the Depositor to the  purchase of Assets and to pay
       for  certain expenses  incurred  in connection  with  such purchase  of
       Assets  and sale  of Certificates.  The Depositor  expects to  sell the
       Certificates from time to time, but the timing and  amount of offerings
       of  Certificates will  depend on  a  number of  factors, including  the
       volume of Assets acquired by  the Depositor, prevailing interest rates,
       availability of funds and general market conditions.

                                 YIELD CONSIDERATIONS

       General

            The yield on any Offered Certificate will depend on the price paid
       by the Certificateholder, the Pass-Through Rate of the Certificate, the
       receipt and timing  of receipt of distributions on  the Certificate and
       the  weighted average  life  of the  Assets in  the related  Trust Fund
       (which  may be  affected  by  prepayments,  defaults,  liquidations  or
       repurchases). See "Risk Factors."

       Pass-Through Rate

            Certificates of any class within a series may have fixed, variable
       or  adjustable Pass-Through Rates, which  may or may  not be based upon
       the interest rates borne by the  Assets in the related Trust Fund.  The
       Prospectus Supplement with  respect to any series  of Certificates will
       specify the Pass-Through  Rate for each class of  such Certificates or,
       in  the case of a variable  or adjustable Pass-Through Rate, the method
       of  determining the  Pass-Through  Rate;  the effect,  if  any, of  the
       prepayment  of any  Mortgage Asset on  the Pass-Through Rate  of one or
       more classes of Certificates; and whether the distributions of interest
       on the  Certificates of  any class will  be dependent,  in whole  or in
       part, on the performance of any obligor under a Cash Flow Agreement.

            The effective  yield to  maturity to  each holder  of Certificates
       entitled to payments of interest  will be below that otherwise produced
       by  the  applicable  Pass-Through  Rate  and  purchase  price  of  such
       Certificate because, while  interest may accrue on each  Asset during a
       certain period, the distribution of such interest will be made on a day
       which may  be several  days, weeks or  months following  the period  of
       accrual.

       Timing of Payment of Interest

            Each payment of  interest on the Certificates (or  addition to the
       Certificate   Balance  of  a  class  of   Accrual  Certificates)  on  a
       Distribution Date  will include  interest accrued  during the  Interest
       Accrual Period  for such  Distribution Date.  As indicated above  under
       "--Pass-Through Rate,"  if the Interest  Accrual Period ends on  a date
       other  than a  Distribution  Date  for the  related  series, the  yield
       realized by  the holders  of such Certificates  may be  lower than  the
       yield that  would result if the  Interest Accrual Period  ended on such
       Distribution  Date.  In  addition,  if  so  specified  in  the  related
       Prospectus  Supplement, interest accrued for an Interest Accrual Period
       for one  or  more classes  of  Certificates may  be calculated  on  the
       assumption  that distributions  of  principal  (and  additions  to  the
       Certificate  Balance of Accrual Certificates) and allocations of losses
       on the  Assets may  be made on  the first day  of the  Interest Accrual
       Period for a Distribution Date and  not on such Distribution Date. Such
       method  would produce  a lower  effective yield  than if  interest were
       calculated on  the basis  of the  actual  principal amount  outstanding
       during an Interest Accrual Period.  The Interest Accrual Period for any
       class  of  Offered  Certificates  will  be  described  in  the  related
       Prospectus Supplement.

       Payments of Principal; Prepayments

            The yield to maturity on the Certificates  will be affected by the
       rate  of  principal   payments  on  the  Assets   (including  principal
       prepayments on Mortgage Loans resulting from both voluntary prepayments
       by the mortgagors  and involuntary liquidations). Such  payments may be
       directly dependent upon the payments on Leases underlying such Mortgage
       Loans. The  rate at which  principal prepayments occur on  the Mortgage
       Loans  will be  affected by  a variety  of factors,  including, without
       limitation, the  terms of the  Mortgage Loans, the level  of prevailing
       interest  rates,  the  availability of  mortgage  credit  and economic,
       demographic,  geographic, tax,  legal and  other  factors. In  general,
       however,  if prevailing  interest rates  fall  significantly below  the
       Mortgage  Rates on  the  Mortgage Loans  comprising  or underlying  the
       Assets in a particular Trust Fund, such Mortgage Loans are likely to be
       the subject of  higher principal prepayments  than if prevailing  rates
       remain  at or  above the rates  borne by  such Mortgage Loans.  In this
       regard, it should be  noted that certain Assets may consist of Mortgage
       Loans  with different  Mortgage Rates  and the  stated  pass-through or
       pay-through interest rate of certain MBS may be  a number of percentage
       points higher or  lower than certain of the  underlying Mortgage Loans.
       The  rate  of principal  payments  on some  or  all of  the  classes of
       Certificates  of a  series will  correspond  to the  rate of  principal
       payments on the  Assets in the related  Trust Fund and is likely  to be
       affected by the  existence of Lock-out  Periods and Prepayment  Premium
       provisions of the Mortgage Loans underlying or comprising  such Assets,
       and  by the extent to  which the servicer of  any such Mortgage Loan is
       able to enforce such provisions.  Mortgage Loans with a Lock-out Period
       or a Prepayment Premium provision, to the extent enforceable, generally
       would be expected  to experience a lower rate  of principal prepayments
       than otherwise identical  Mortgage Loans without such  provisions, with
       shorter Lock-out Periods or with lower Prepayment Premiums.

            If the purchaser of a Certificate offered at a discount calculates
       its  anticipated  yield  to  maturity  based  on  an  assumed  rate  of
       distributions   of  principal  that   is  faster  than   that  actually
       experienced  on the Assets, the actual  yield to maturity will be lower
       than that so calculated. Conversely,  if the purchaser of a Certificate
       offered at a premium calculates its anticipated yield to maturity based
       on an assumed rate  of distributions of principal  that is slower  than
       that actually experienced  on the Assets, the actual  yield to maturity
       will be  lower than that so calculated. In  either case, if so provided
       in the Prospectus  Supplement for a series of  Certificates, the effect
       on yield  on one or more classes of the  Certificates of such series of
       prepayments of the Assets in the related Trust Fund may be mitigated or
       exacerbated  by any provisions for sequential or selective distribution
       of principal to such classes.

            When a full  prepayment is made on a  Mortgage Loan, the mortgagor
       is  charged interest  on the principal  amount of the  Mortgage Loan so
       prepaid for the number of days in the  month actually elapsed up to the
       date  of  the prepayment.  Unless  otherwise specified  in  the related
       Prospectus Supplement,  the effect  of prepayments in  full will  be to
       reduce the amount of interest paid in the following month to holders of
       Certificates  entitled to payments of  interest because interest on the
       principal amount of any Mortgage Loan  so prepaid will be paid only  to
       the date of  prepayment rather than for a full  month. Unless otherwise
       specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, a partial prepayment of
       principal is applied so as  to reduce the outstanding principal balance
       of  the related Mortgage Loan as of the  Due Date in the month in which
       such  partial  prepayment is  received. As  a result,  unless otherwise
       specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the effect of a partial
       prepayment on a Mortgage Loan will be to reduce the amount  of interest
       passed through  to holders of  Certificates in the month  following the
       receipt of such  partial prepayment by an  amount equal to  one month's
       interest at the applicable Pass-Through Rate on the prepaid amount.

            The timing  of changes in  the rate of  principal payments  on the
       Mortgage Assets  may significantly affect an investor's actual yield to
       maturity, even  if the  average rate of  distributions of  principal is
       consistent with an  investor's expectation. In  general, the earlier  a
       principal payment is received on the Mortgage Assets and distributed on
       a  Certificate, the  greater the  effect  on such  investor's yield  to
       maturity.  The  effect on  an  investor's yield  of  principal payments
       occurring at a  rate higher (or lower) than the rate anticipated by the
       investor during  a given period may not be  offset by a subsequent like
       decrease (or increase) in the rate of principal payments.

       Prepayments--Maturity and Weighted Average Life

            The rates at  which principal payments are received  on the Assets
       included in  or comprising a Trust Fund and  the rate at which payments
       are made from any Credit Support or Cash Flow Agreement for the related
       series  of  Certificates  may  affect the  ultimate  maturity  and  the
       weighted average life of each class of such series. Prepayments  on the
       Mortgage  Loans comprising  or  underlying  the  Mortgage Assets  in  a
       particular  Trust Fund  will  generally accelerate  the  rate at  which
       principal is paid  on some or all of the classes of the Certificates of
       the related series.

            If  so provided  in  the  Prospectus Supplement  for  a series  of
       Certificates,  one or  more classes  of Certificates  may have  a final
       scheduled Distribution Date, which is the date on or prior to which the
       Certificate  Balance thereof  is  scheduled  to  be  reduced  to  zero,
       calculated on  the basis of  the assumptions applicable to  such series
       set forth therein.

            Weighted average  life refers to  the average amount of  time that
       will elapse from the date of  issue of a security until each dollar  of
       principal of such security will be repaid to the investor. The weighted
       average life of a class of Certificates of a series will  be influenced
       by the  rate at  which principal  on the  Mortgage Loans comprising  or
       underlying the Mortgage Assets is paid  to such class, which may be  in
       the form  of scheduled amortization  or prepayments (for  this purpose,
       the term  "prepayment" includes prepayments,  in whole or in  part, and
       liquidations due to default).

            In addition, the weighted average  life of the Certificates may be
       affected by the varying maturities  of the Mortgage Loans comprising or
       underlying the MBS. If any  Mortgage Loans comprising or underlying the
       Assets in a particular Trust Fund have actual terms to maturity of less
       than  those assumed in  calculating final scheduled  Distribution Dates
       for the  classes of  Certificates of  the related  series, one or  more
       classes  of  such  Certificates  may  be  fully  paid  prior  to  their
       respective  final scheduled Distribution Dates, even  in the absence of
       prepayments. Accordingly, the prepayment experience of the Assets will,
       to  some  extent,  be a  function  of  the mix  of  Mortgage  Rates and
       maturities of the Mortgage Loans  comprising or underlying such Assets.
       See "Description of the Trust Funds."

            Prepayments on  loans are  also commonly  measured  relative to  a
       prepayment  standard or  model, such  as the  Constant Prepayment  Rate
       ("CPR") prepayment model.  CPR represents  a constant  assumed rate  of
       prepayment  each month  relative  to  the  then  outstanding  principal
       balance of a pool of loans for the life of such loans.

            Neither  CPR nor any other prepayment model or assumption purports
       to be a historical description of prepayment experience or a prediction
       of the anticipated  rate of prepayment of any pool  of loans, including
       the  Mortgage Loans  underlying  or  comprising  the  Mortgage  Assets.
       Moreover, CPR was developed based upon historical prepayment experience
       for single  family loans.  Thus, it is  likely that  prepayment of  any
       Mortgage Loans  comprising or  underlying the  Mortgage Assets  for any
       series will not conform to any particular level of CPR.

            The  Depositor is not  aware of any  meaningful publicly available
       prepayment statistics for multifamily or commercial mortgage loans.

            The  Prospectus  Supplement   with  respect  to  each   series  of
       Certificates  will contain  tables, if  applicable,  setting forth  the
       projected weighted average life  of each class of Offered  Certificates
       of such series and the percentage of the initial Certificate Balance of
       each such class  that would  be outstanding  on specified  Distribution
       Dates based  on the assumptions  stated in such  Prospectus Supplement,
       including assumptions that prepayments on the Mortgage Loans comprising
       or underlying  the related  Assets are made  at rates  corresponding to
       various  percentages of CPR  or at such  other rates  specified in such
       Prospectus  Supplement. Such  tables and  assumptions  are intended  to
       illustrate the sensitivity of weighted average life of the Certificates
       to various prepayment rates and will  not be intended to predict or  to
       provide information  that will enable  investors to predict  the actual
       weighted  average  life  of  the  Certificates.  It  is  unlikely  that
       prepayment of any Mortgage Loans comprising or underlying  the Mortgage
       Assets for any  series will conform to  any particular level of  CPR or
       any other rate specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.

       Other Factors Affecting Weighted Average Life

        Type of Mortgage Asset

            A  number of  Mortgage  Loans  may have  balloon  payments due  at
       maturity, and  because the  ability of  a mortgagor  to make  a balloon
       payment typically will depend upon  its ability either to refinance the
       loan or to  sell the related Mortgaged Property, there is a risk that a
       number  of  Mortgage  Loans  having balloon  payments  may  default  at
       maturity, or  that the  servicer  may extend  the  maturity of  such  a
       Mortgage Loan in connection  with a workout. In  the case of  defaults,
       recovery of proceeds may be  delayed by, among other things, bankruptcy
       of the mortgagor or adverse conditions in the market where the property
       is located.  In order to  minimize losses on defaulted  Mortgage Loans,
       the servicer may, to  the extent and under the  circumstances set forth
       in the related  Prospectus Supplement, be permitted to  modify Mortgage
       Loans that are in default or as to which a payment default is imminent.
       Any defaulted balloon payment or modification that extends the maturity
       of a 
       Mortgage Loan  will tend  to extend  the weighted average  life of  the
       Certificates, thereby lengthening  the period of time  elapsed from the
       date of issuance of a Certificate until it is retired.

        Foreclosures and Payment Plans

            The  number  of  foreclosures  and the  principal  amount  of  the
       Mortgage  Loans comprising or  underlying the Mortgage  Assets that are
       foreclosed in relation  to the number and principal  amount of Mortgage
       Loans that  are repaid in  accordance with their terms  will affect the
       weighted average  life of the  Mortgage Loans comprising  or underlying
       the Mortgage  Assets and  that of the  related series  of Certificates.
       Servicing decisions made with respect to the Mortgage  Loans, including
       the  use of payment  plans prior to  a demand for  acceleration and the
       restructuring of  Mortgage Loans  in bankruptcy  proceedings, may  also
       have an effect  upon the payment patterns of  particular Mortgage Loans
       and thus the weighted average life of the Certificates.

        Due-on-Sale and Due-on-Encumbrance Clauses

            Acceleration of mortgage payments as a result of certain transfers
       of or the creation  of encumbrances upon underlying  Mortgaged Property
       is another factor affecting prepayment  rates that may not be reflected
       in the prepayment  standards or models used in  the relevant Prospectus
       Supplement. A number of the Mortgage Loans comprising or underlying the
       Assets  may  include  "due-on-sale"  clauses  or   "due-on-encumbrance"
       clauses that allow the holder of  the Mortgage Loans to demand  payment
       in full of  the remaining principal balance of the  Mortgage Loans upon
       sale or certain other transfers of or the creation of encumbrances upon
       the related Mortgaged Property. With respect to any Whole Loans, unless
       otherwise provided  in the  related Prospectus  Supplement, the  Master
       Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, will be required to exercise (or
       waive its  right to exercise) any such right  that the Trustee may have
       as  mortgagee to  accelerate  payment of  the Whole  Loan  in a  manner
       consistent with the  Servicing Standard. See "Certain  Legal Aspects of
       the Mortgage Loans and the Leases--Due-on-Sale  and Due-on-Encumbrance"
       and "Description of the  Agreements--Due-on-Sale and Due-on-Encumbrance
       Provisions."

                           DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES
       General

            The   Certificates  of  each   series  (including  any   class  of
       Certificates not offered  hereby) will represent the  entire beneficial
       ownership interest  in the Trust  Fund created pursuant to  the related
       Agreement.  Each series  of Certificates  will consist  of one  or more
       classes  of  Certificates that  may  (i)  provide  for the  accrual  of
       interest thereon based on fixed,  variable or adjustable rates; (ii) be
       senior   (collectively,    "Senior   Certificates")    or   subordinate
       (collectively, "Subordinate Certificates") to one or more other classes
       of   Certificates  in   respect  of   certain   distributions  on   the
       Certificates;  (iii)  be  entitled  to  principal  distributions,  with
       disproportionately   low,   nominal   or  no   interest   distributions
       (collectively, "Stripped Principal Certificates");  (iv) be entitled to
       interest  distributions,  with disproportionately  low,  nominal or  no
       principal    distributions     (collectively,    "Stripped     Interest
       Certificates");  (v) provide  for  distributions  of  accrued  interest
       thereon commencing  only following  the occurrence  of certain  events,
       such as the retirement of one or more other classes of  Certificates of
       such series  (collectively, "Accrual Certificates");  (vi) provide  for
       payments  of   principal  sequentially,  based  on   specified  payment
       schedules, from  only a  portion of the  Assets in  such Trust  Fund or
       based on specified  calculations, to the extent of  available funds, in
       each case  as described in  the related  Prospectus Supplement;  and/or
       (vii) provide for  distributions based on a combination of  two or more
       components thereof with one or more of the characteristics described in
       this paragraph including a Stripped Principal Certificate component and
       a Stripped Interest Certificate component. Any such classes may include
       classes of Offered Certificates.

            Each class of  Offered Certificates of a series  will be issued in
       minimum  denominations corresponding to the Certificate Balances or, in
       case  of Stripped Interest Certificates, notional amounts or percentage
       interests  specified in the related Prospectus Supplement. The transfer
       of any Offered Certificates may be registered and such Certificates may
       be  exchanged without  the payment  of  any service  charge payable  in
       connection with such registration of transfer or exchange, but the 
       Depositor or the Trustee or any agent  thereof may require payment of a
       sum sufficient to  cover any tax or  other governmental charge. One  or
       more classes  of Certificates of  a series may be  issued in definitive
       form  ("Definitive Certificates")  or  in book-entry  form ("Book-Entry
       Certificates"), as provided  in the related Prospectus  Supplement. See
       "Risk  Factors--Book-Entry   Registration"  and  "Description   of  the
       Certificates--Book-Entry  Registration  and  Definitive  Certificates."
       Definitive  Certificates will be exchangeable for other Certificates of
       the  same class  and series  of a  like aggregate  Certificate Balance,
       notional  amount or  percentage interest  but  of different  authorized
       denominations.  See  "Risk  Factors--Limited  Liquidity"  and  "Limited
       Assets."

       Distributions

            Distributions on the  Certificates of each series will  be made by
       or on behalf of the Trustee  on each Distribution Date as specified  in
       the  related  Prospectus  Supplement  from  the  Available Distribution
       Amount for such series and  such Distribution Date. Except as otherwise
       specified  in the  related Prospectus Supplement,  distributions (other
       than the final distribution) will be made to the persons in whose names
       the Certificates are  registered at the close  of business on  the last
       business day of the month preceding the month in which the Distribution
       Date occurs  (the "Record Date"),  and the amount of  each distribution
       will be determined as of the close of business on the date specified in
       the  related  Prospectus  Supplement (the  "Determination  Date").  All
       distributions  with  respect  to  each class  of  Certificates  on each
       Distribution Date  will be  allocated  pro rata  among the  outstanding
       Certificates in such class or by  random selection, as described in the
       related Prospectus Supplement  or otherwise established by  the related
       Trustee. Payments will  be made either by wire  transfer in immediately
       available  funds to  the account  of a Certificateholder  at a  bank or
       other   entity  having   appropriate  facilities   therefor,  if   such
       Certificateholder has so  notified the Trustee or other person required
       to make such payments no later  than the date specified in the  related
       Prospectus  Supplement (and, if  so provided in  the related Prospectus
       Supplement,  holds  Certificates  in  the  requisite  amount  specified
       therein), or  by check  mailed to  the address of  the person  entitled
       thereto as it  appears on the Certificate  Register; provided, however,
       that the final distribution in retirement  of the Certificates (whether
       Definitive Certificates or  Book-Entry Certificates) will be  made only
       upon presentation  and surrender  of the Certificates  at the  location
       specified  in   the  notice   to  Certificateholders   of  such   final
       distribution.

       Available Distribution Amount

            All  distributions on  the  Certificates of  each  series on  each
       Distribution Date will be  made from the Available  Distribution Amount
       described below, in accordance with  the terms described in the related
       Prospectus  Supplement.  Unless  provided  otherwise  in   the  related
       Prospectus Supplement,  the  "Available Distribution  Amount" for  each
       Distribution Date equals the sum of the following amounts:

         (i) the  total  amount  of  all   cash  on  deposit  in  the  related
       Certificate   Account  as  of  the  corresponding  Determination  Date,
       exclusive of:

           (a) all  scheduled payments of principal and interest collected but
       due on a  date subsequent to the related Due Period (unless the related
       Prospectus Supplement provides  otherwise, a "Due Period"  with respect
       to any Distribution Date  will commence on the second day  of the month
       in which the immediately preceding Distribution Date occurs, or the day
       after the Cut-off Date  in the case of  the first Due Period,  and will
       end on the first day of the month of the related Distribution Date),

           (b) unless  the related  Prospectus Supplement  provides otherwise,
       all prepayments, together with related payments of the interest thereon
       and  related  Prepayment  Premiums,  Liquidation  Proceeds,   Insurance
       Proceeds  and other unscheduled  recoveries received subsequent  to the
       related Due Period, and

           (c) all  amounts  in  the  Certificate  Account  that  are  due  or
       reimbursable  to  the  Depositor,  the  Trustee,  an  Asset  Seller,  a
       Sub-Servicer, a  Special Servicer,  the Master  Servicer  or any  other
       entity as  specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement or  that are
       payable in respect of certain expenses of the related Trust Fund;

         (ii) if  the related Prospectus  Supplement so provides,  interest or
       investment income  on amounts  on deposit  in the Certificate  Account,
       including any net amounts paid under any Cash Flow Agreements;

         (iii) all advances made by a  Master Servicer or any other entity  as
       specified  in the  related Prospectus  Supplement with respect  to such
       Distribution Date;

         (iv) if and  to  the  extent the  related  Prospectus  Supplement  so
       provides, amounts  paid by  a Master Servicer  or any  other entity  as
       specified in the related Prospectus Supplement with respect to interest
       shortfalls  resulting  from prepayments  during the  related Prepayment
       Period; and

         (v) unless the  related Prospectus Supplement provides  otherwise, to
       the extent not  on deposit in the related Certificate Account as of the
       corresponding  Determination Date, any amounts collected under, from or
       in  respect of  any Credit  Support with  respect to  such Distribution
       Date.

            As  described below, the entire Available Distribution Amount will
       be   distributed  among   the  related   Certificates  (including   any
       Certificates  not  offered  hereby)  on  each  Distribution  Date,  and
       accordingly  will be  released  from the  Trust Fund  and  will not  be
       available for any future distributions.

       Distributions of Interest on the Certificates

            Each  class  of  Certificates  (other  than  classes  of  Stripped
       Principal  Certificates  that have  no  Pass-Through Rate)  may  have a
       different  Pass-Through Rate,  which  will  be  a  fixed,  variable  or
       adjustable rate  at  which interest  will  accrue on  such  class or  a
       component  thereof  (the "Pass-Through  Rate"). The  related Prospectus
       Supplement  will  specify  the  Pass-Through  Rate  for  each class  or
       component  or, in  the case  of a  variable or  adjustable Pass-Through
       Rate,   the  method  for  determining  the  Pass-Through  Rate.  Unless
       otherwise specified in  the related Prospectus Supplement,  interest on
       the Certificates  will be  calculated on  the basis  of a  360-day year
       consisting of twelve 30-day months.

            Distributions of  interest in respect  of the Certificates  of any
       class will  be made on each Distribution Date  (other than any class of
       Accrual  Certificates, which  will  be  entitled  to  distributions  of
       accrued interest commencing only on the Distribution Date, or under the
       circumstances,  specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, and any
       class of Stripped  Principal Certificates that are not  entitled to any
       distributions  of interest) based  on the Accrued  Certificate Interest
       for such class  and such Distribution Date, subject  to the sufficiency
       of the portion  of the Available Distribution Amount  allocable to such
       class  on  such  Distribution  Date.  Prior to  the  time  interest  is
       distributable  on any  class  of Accrual  Certificates,  the amount  of
       Accrued Certificate Interest otherwise distributable on such class will
       be added to the Certificate  Balance thereof on each Distribution Date.
       With respect to  each class of Certificates and  each Distribution Date
       (other  than  certain  classes  of   Stripped  Interest  Certificates),
       "Accrued Certificate Interest" will be  equal to interest accrued for a
       specified  period  on  the  outstanding  Certificate   Balance  thereof
       immediately  prior  to   the  Distribution  Date,  at   the  applicable
       Pass-Through  Rate,  reduced  as  described  below.  Unless   otherwise
       provided  in the Prospectus Supplement, Accrued Certificate Interest on
       Stripped Interest Certificates will be  equal to interest accrued for a
       specified period on the outstanding notional amount thereof immediately
       prior to each  Distribution Date, at the applicable  Pass-Through Rate,
       reduced  as described  below. The  method of  determining  the notional
       amount  for  any  class  of  Stripped  Interest  Certificates  will  be
       described in the  related Prospectus Supplement. Reference  to notional
       amount is solely  for convenience in certain calculations  and does not
       represent the right to  receive any distributions of principal.  Unless
       otherwise  provided in the  related Prospectus Supplement,  the Accrued
       Certificate Interest on a series of Certificates will be reduced in the
       event  of prepayment  interest  shortfalls,  which  are  shortfalls  in
       collections  of  interest for  a  full  accrual  period resulting  from
       prepayments  prior to  the  due date  in  such  accrual period  on  the
       Mortgage  Loans comprising  or underlying  the Mortgage  Assets in  the
       Trust  Fund  for such  series.  The  particular  manner in  which  such
       shortfalls are to  be allocated  among some  or all of  the classes  of
       Certificates of that series will be specified in the related Prospectus
       Supplement.  The related Prospectus  Supplement will also  describe the
       extent  to which  the amount  of Accrued  Certificate Interest  that is
       otherwise distributable  on (or, in  the case of  Accrual Certificates,
       that may  otherwise be added to the Certificate  Balance of) a class of
       Offered  Certificates  may  be  reduced   as  a  result  of  any  other
       contingencies, including delinquencies, losses and deferred interest on
       or  in respect  of  the  Mortgage Loans  comprising  or underlying  the
       Mortgage Assets in the related Trust Fund. Unless otherwise provided in
       the  related Prospectus  Supplement,  any reduction  in  the amount  of
       Accrued  Certificate Interest  otherwise distributable  on  a class  of
       Certificates by reason of the allocation to  such class of a portion of
       any deferred  interest on the  Mortgage Loans comprising  or underlying
       the  Mortgage Assets  in  the  related  Trust Fund  will  result  in  a
       corresponding increase in  the Certificate Balance  of such class.  See
       "Risk  Factors--Average Life of  Certificates; Prepayments; Yields" and
       "Yield Considerations."

       Distributions of Principal of the Certificates

            The Certificates of  each series,  other than  certain classes  of
       Stripped  Interest Certificates,  will  have  a  "Certificate  Balance"
       which, at any time, will equal the then maximum amount that  the holder
       will be  entitled to receive in respect of  principal out of the future
       cash flow on the Assets and other  assets included in the related Trust
       Fund. The outstanding 
       Certificate  Balance of a Certificate will  be reduced to the extent of
       distributions of principal thereon from time to time and, if and to the
       extent so provided in the  related Prospectus Supplement, by the amount
       of  losses incurred in respect of the  related Assets, may be increased
       in respect  of deferred interest on  the related Mortgage Loans  to the
       extent provided in  the related Prospectus Supplement and,  in the case
       of  Accrual  Certificates prior  to  the  Distribution  Date  on  which
       distributions of interest  are required to commence,  will be increased
       by  any related Accrued Certificate Interest. Unless otherwise provided
       in the related Prospectus Supplement, the initial aggregate Certificate
       Balance of all  classes of Certificates of a series will not be greater
       than the outstanding aggregate principal  balance of the related Assets
       as of the  applicable Cut-off Date.  The initial aggregate  Certificate
       Balance of  a series and  each class thereof  will be specified  in the
       related Prospectus Supplement. Unless otherwise provided in the related
       Prospectus Supplement, distributions  of principal will be made on each
       Distribution  Date to  the class  or classes  of Certificates  entitled
       thereto in accordance with the provisions described  in such Prospectus
       Supplement until the Certificate Balance of such class has been reduced
       to zero. Stripped Interest Certificates with no Certificate Balance are
       not entitled to any distributions of principal.

       Components

            To  the extent  specified in  the  related Prospectus  Supplement,
       distribution  on a class of Certificates may  be based on a combination
       of two  or  more different  components as  described under  "--General"
       above.   To   such   extent,   the   descriptions   set   forth   under
       "--Distributions of Interests on the Certificates" and "--Distributions
       of Principal  of the Certificates"  above also relate to  components of
       such a class  of Certificates. In such case, reference in such sections
       to Certificate  Balance and Pass-Through  Rate refer  to the  principal
       balance, if any,  of any such component  and the Pass-Through Rate,  if
       any, on any such component, respectively.

       Distributions on the Certificates of Prepayment Premiums or in Respect
       of Equity Participations

            If  so provided in  the related Prospectus  Supplement, Prepayment
       Premiums  or  payments in  respect  of Equity  Participations  that are
       collected  on the  Mortgage Assets  in the related  Trust Fund  will be
       distributed  on each  Distribution  Date  to the  class  or classes  of
       Certificates   entitled  thereto  in  accordance  with  the  provisions
       described in such Prospectus Supplement.

       Allocation of Losses and Shortfalls

            If  so provided  in  the  Prospectus Supplement  for  a series  of
       Certificates  consisting  of   one  or  more  classes   of  Subordinate
       Certificates, on  any Distribution Date  in respect of which  losses or
       shortfalls  in collections on  the Mortgage Assets  have been incurred,
       the amount  of such losses or shortfalls will be borne first by a class
       of Subordinate Certificates  in the priority and manner  and subject to
       the   limitations  specified   in  such   Prospectus  Supplement.   See
       "Description  of Credit  Support" for  a  description of  the types  of
       protection that  may be included  in a  Trust Fund  against losses  and
       shortfalls on Mortgage Assets comprising such Trust Fund.

       Advances in Respect of Delinquencies

            With  respect to any series of Certificates evidencing an interest
       in a  Trust Fund, unless  otherwise provided in the  related Prospectus
       Supplement, the  Master Servicer  or another  entity described  therein
       will be required  as part of its servicing  responsibilities to advance
       on or before each Distribution Date its  own funds or funds held in the
       Certificate Account that are not included in the Available Distribution
       Amount for  such Distribution Date, in an amount equal to the aggregate
       of payments of principal (other than any balloon payments) and interest
       (net of related servicing fees and  Retained Interest) that were due on
       the Whole Loans  in such Trust Fund  during the related Due  Period and
       were  delinquent  on the  related  Determination Date,  subject  to the
       Master Servicer's (or  another entity's) good faith  determination that
       such  advances will be  reimbursable from Related  Proceeds (as defined
       below). In the  case of a series  of Certificates that includes  one or
       more  classes of  Subordinate Certificates  and if  so provided  in the
       related  Prospectus  Supplement,  the  Master  Servicer's  (or  another
       entity's) advance obligation may be limited only to the portion of such
       delinquencies necessary  to make the  required distributions on  one or
       more classes of Senior Certificates and/or may be subject to the Master
       Servicer's (or  another entity's)  good faith  determination that  such
       advances will be  reimbursable not only from Related  Proceeds but also
       from collections on other Assets otherwise distributable on one or more
       classes  of such Subordinate  Certificates. See "Description  of Credit
       Support."

            Advances  are  intended to  maintain a  regular flow  of scheduled
       interest  and principal payments to holders  of the class or classes of
       Certificates  entitled  thereto,  rather than  to  guarantee  or insure
       against losses. Unless otherwise provided in the 
       related  Prospectus Supplement, advances  of the Master  Servicer's (or
       another  entity's) funds  will  be  reimbursable  only out  of  related
       recoveries on  the Mortgage Loans (including amounts received under any
       form of Credit Support) respecting which such advances were made (as to
       any  Mortgage Loan,  "Related Proceeds")  and,  if so  provided in  the
       Prospectus  Supplement, out of  any amounts otherwise  distributable on
       one or  more  classes  of  Subordinate  Certificates  of  such  series;
       provided, however, that any such  advance will be reimbursable from any
       amounts in  the Certificate  Account prior  to any  distributions being
       made  on the  Certificates to the  extent that the  Master Servicer (or
       such  other entity) shall determine in good  faith that such advance (a
       "Nonrecoverable Advance")  is not  ultimately recoverable from  Related
       Proceeds or, if applicable, from  collections on other Assets otherwise
       distributable on such  Subordinate Certificates. If advances  have been
       made  by the  Master  Servicer  from excess  funds  in the  Certificate
       Account, the Master Servicer is required  to replace such funds in  the
       Certificate Account on any future  Distribution Date to the extent that
       funds in  the Certificate  Account on such  Distribution Date  are less
       than payments required  to be made to Certificateholders  on such date.
       If so  specified in the related Prospectus  Supplement, the obligations
       of the  Master Servicer  (or another  entity) to make  advances may  be
       secured by  a cash  advance reserve fund,  a surety  bond, a  letter of
       credit or another form of limited  guaranty. If applicable, information
       regarding the characteristics  of, and the identity of  any obligor on,
       any such  surety bond,  will  be set  forth in  the related  Prospectus
       Supplement.

            If  and  to the  extent  so  provided  in the  related  Prospectus
       Supplement, the Master Servicer (or another entity) will be entitled to
       receive  interest at  the  rate specified  therein  on its  outstanding
       advances and will be entitled  to pay itself such interest periodically
       from  general  collections  on  the  Assets prior  to  any  payment  to
       Certificateholders  or as otherwise  provided in the  related Agreement
       and described in such Prospectus Supplement.

            The   Prospectus  Supplement  for   any  series   of  Certificates
       evidencing an interest  in a Trust Fund that includes MBS will describe
       any corresponding advancing obligation of any person in connection with
       such MBS.

       Reports to Certificateholders

            Unless  otherwise provided in the Prospectus Supplement, with each
       distribution to holders  of any class of Certificates of  a series, the
       Master Servicer or  the Trustee, as provided in  the related Prospectus
       Supplement, will forward or cause to be forwarded to each  such holder,
       to the Depositor and to such  other parties as may be specified in  the

       customary information as any such  Master Servicer or the Trustee deems

       so,  the date so commenced and  (h) if such Mortgage  Loan is more than
       three months  delinquent and  foreclosure has  not been commenced,  the

       Supplement, will  forward or cause to  be forwarded to  each holder, to
       the Depositor  and to  such other parties  as may  be specified  in the
       Agreement, a copy  of any statements or reports received  by the Master

       holders of such Certificates.

            Within a reasonable period of time after  the end of each calendar
       year, the  Master Servicer or  the Trustee, as provided  in the related
       Prospectus Supplement,  shall furnish  to each person  who at  any time
       during the  calendar year  was a  holder of a  Certificate a  statement
       containing  the information  set forth  in  subclauses (i)-(iv)  above,
       aggregated  for such calendar  year or  the applicable  portion thereof
       during which such  person was a  Certificateholder. Such obligation  of
       the  Master  Servicer or  the  Trustee shall  be  deemed  to have  been
       satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall
       be provided  by the  Master Servicer  or the  Trustee  pursuant to  any
       requirements  of the  Code  as are  from  time to  time  in force.  See
       "Description   of   the   Certificates--Book-Entry   Registration   and
       Definitive Certificates."

       Termination

            The  obligations  created  by the  Agreement  for  each  series of
       Certificates will terminate  upon the payment to  Certificateholders of
       that series of  all amounts held in  the Certificate Account or  by the
       Master Servicer, if any, or the Trustee and required to be paid to them
       pursuant  to such  Agreement following  the  earlier of  (i) the  final
       payment or other  liquidation of the last Asset subject  thereto or the
       disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure of any Whole Loan
       subject thereto and (ii) the purchase of all of the assets of the Trust
       Fund  by the  party  entitled  to effect  such  termination, under  the
       circumstances and  in the  manner set forth  in the  related Prospectus
       Supplement.  In  no event,  however,  will  the  trust created  by  the
       Agreement continue beyond the date specified  in the related Prospectus
       Supplement.  Written notice  of  termination of  the Agreement  will be
       given to  each Certificateholder,  and the final  distribution will  be
       made only  upon presentation and  surrender of the Certificates  at the
       location to be specified in the notice of termination.

            If so specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement, a series of
       Certificates may be subject  to optional early termination through  the
       repurchase  of  the  assets in  the  related Trust  Fund  by  the party
       specified therein, under the circumstances  and in the manner set forth
       therein. If so provided in  the related Prospectus Supplement, upon the
       reduction of the Certificate Balance of a specified class or classes of
       Certificates by a  specified percentage or amount, the  party specified
       therein will solicit bids  for the purchase of all assets  of the Trust
       Fund, or of a sufficient portion of such assets to retire such class or
       classes or purchase such class  or classes at a price set forth  in the
       related  Prospectus Supplement, in  each case, under  the circumstances
       and in the manner set forth therein.

       Book-Entry Registration and Definitive Certificates

            If so provided  in the related Prospectus Supplement,  one or more
       classes of the  Offered Certificates of  any series will  be issued  as
       Book-Entry Certificates, and each such class will be represented by one
       or more single Certificates registered in the name of a nominee for the
       depository, The Depository Trust Company ("DTC").

            DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the laws of
       the  State  of New  York, a  member  of the  Federal Reserve  System, a
       "clearing corporation"  within the  meaning of  the Uniform  Commercial
       Code ("UCC")  and  a  "clearing  agency"  registered  pursuant  to  the
       provisions of  Section 17A of the  Securities Exchange Act of  1934, as
       amended.  DTC was  created  to hold  securities  for its  participating
       organizations  ("Participants")   and  facilitate  the   clearance  and
       settlement  of  securities  transactions  between Participants  through
       electronic book-entry  changes in their  accounts, thereby  eliminating
       the  need for physical  movement of certificates.  Participants include
       Morgan  Stanley &  Co. Incorporated,  securities  brokers and  dealers,
       banks,  trust companies  and  clearing  corporations  and  may  include
       certain other organizations. Indirect access  to the DTC system also is
       available to others such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies
       that  clear  through  or  maintain  a  custodial  relationship  with  a
       Participant, either  directly or indirectly  ("Indirect Participants").
        Unless  otherwise  provided  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,
       investors that are not Participants or Indirect Participants but desire
       to  purchase,  sell  or  otherwise  transfer  ownership  of,  or  other
       interests   in,  Book-Entry  Certificates   may  do  so   only  through
       Participants and  Indirect  Participants. In  addition, such  investors
       ("Certificate Owners") will receive all distributions on the Book-Entry
       Certificates  through  DTC  and its  Participants.  Under  a book-entry
       format,  Certificate Owners  will receive  payments  after the  related
       Distribution Date because, while payments are required  to be forwarded
       to Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC ("Cede"), on each such date, DTC will
       forward such  payments to  its Participants  which  thereafter will  be
       required  to forward  them  to  Indirect  Participants  or  Certificate
       Owners. Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement,
       the only 
       "Certificateholder" (as  such term  is used in  the Agreement)  will be
       Cede,  as  nominee of  DTC,  and  the Certificate  Owners  will  not be
       recognized  by the Trustee  as Certificateholders under  the Agreement.
       Certificate  Owners  will  be  permitted  to  exercise  the  rights  of
       Certificateholders under the related  Agreement only indirectly through
       the Participants who in turn will exercise their rights through DTC.

            Under the rules, regulations and procedures creating and affecting
       DTC and  its operations, DTC  is required to make  book-entry transfers
       among  Participants  on  whose  behalf  it acts  with  respect  to  the
       Book-Entry  Certificates  and  is  required  to  receive  and  transmit
       distributions   of  principal  of   and  interest  on   the  Book-Entry
       Certificates.  Participants  and   Indirect  Participants  with   which
       Certificate  Owners  have  accounts  with  respect  to  the  Book-Entry
       Certificates  similarly are required  to make book-entry  transfers and
       receive  and  transmit  such payments  on  behalf  of their  respective
       Certificate Owners.

            Because  DTC can act only  on behalf of  Participants, who in turn
       act on behalf  of Indirect Participants and certain  banks, the ability
       of  a  Certificate Owner  to  pledge  its  interest in  the  Book-Entry
       Certificates to persons or entities that do  not participate in the DTC
       system, or  otherwise take actions  in respect of  its interest  in the
       Book-Entry Certificates, may  be limited due to the  lack of a physical
       certificate evidencing such interest.

            DTC  has  advised the  Depositor  that  it  will take  any  action
       permitted to be taken by a Certificateholder under an Agreement only at
       the  direction of one  or more Participants  to whose  account with DTC
       interests in the Book-Entry Certificates are credited.

            Unless otherwise specified  in the related Prospectus  Supplement,
       Certificates initially  issued in  book-entry  form will  be issued  in
       fully  registered, certificated  form to  Certificate  Owners or  their
       nominees ("Definitive Certificates"), rather than to DTC or its nominee
       only if (i) the Depositor advises the Trustee in writing that DTC is no
       longer willing  or able to  properly discharge its  responsibilities as
       depository with respect to the Certificates and the Depositor is unable
       to locate a  qualified successor or (ii) the Depositor,  at its option,
       elects to terminate the book-entry system through DTC.

            Upon  the occurrence  of either  of  the events  described in  the
       immediately   preceding  paragraph,  DTC  is  required  to  notify  all
       Participants of the availability through DTC of Definitive Certificates
       for the Certificate Owners. Upon surrender by DTC of the certificate or
       certificates representing  the Book-Entry  Certificates, together  with
       instructions for reregistration, the Trustee will issue (or cause to be
       issued)  to the Certificate Owners  identified in such instructions the
       Definitive Certificates to which they  are entitled, and thereafter the
       Trustee will recognize the holders  of such Definitive Certificates  as
       Certificateholders under the Agreement.

                            DESCRIPTION OF THE AGREEMENTS

            The Certificates  of each series  evidencing interests in  a Trust
       Fund including Whole  Loans will be  issued pursuant  to a Pooling  and
       Servicing Agreement among the Depositor, a Master Servicer, any Special
       Servicer  appointed  as  of  the  date of  the  Pooling  and  Servicing
       Agreement and the Trustee. The  Certificates of each series  evidencing
       interests in  a Trust  Fund not  including Whole  Loans will be  issued
       pursuant to a Trust Agreement between  the Depositor and a Trustee. Any
       Master Servicer, any such Special Servicer and the Trustee with respect
       to any  series of Certificates will be  named in the related Prospectus
       Supplement.  In lieu of appointing a Master Servicer, a servicer may be
       appointed pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for any Trust
       Fund. Such servicer  will service all or a significant  number of Whole
       Loans  directly without a  Sub-Servicer. Unless otherwise  specified in
       the related Prospectus Supplement, the obligations of any such servicer
       shall  be  commensurate with  those  of the  Master  Servicer described
       herein. References in this prospectus to Master Servicer and its rights
       and obligations, unless  otherwise specified in the  related Prospectus
       Supplement,  shall be  deemed to  also  be references  to any  servicer
       servicing  Whole Loans  directly.  A manager  or  administrator may  be
       appointed  pursuant  to the  Trust  Agreement  for  any Trust  Fund  to
       administer such Trust Fund. The  provisions of each Agreement will vary
       depending upon the  nature of the Certificates to  be issued thereunder
       and the  nature of  the related Trust  Fund. A  form of  a Pooling  and
       Servicing Agreement  has been filed  as an exhibit to  the Registration
       Statement of which this Prospectus is a part. Any  Trust Agreement will
       generally conform to the form  of Pooling and Servicing Agreement filed
       herewith, but will not contain provisions with respect to the servicing
       and  maintenance of  Whole  Loans.  The  following  summaries  describe
       certain  provisions that may  appear in each  Agreement. The Prospectus
       Supplement for a series of  Certificates will describe any provision of
       the Agreement relating to such  series that materially differs from the
       description thereof contained in this  Prospectus. The summaries do not
       purport to  be complete and are subject to,  and are qualified in their
       entirety by  reference to, all  of the provisions of  the Agreement for
       each Trust Fund  and the description of such  provisions in the related
       Prospectus Supplement. As  used herein with respect to  any series, the
       term "Certificate"  refers to all  of the Certificates of  that series,
       whether or not offered hereby and by the related Prospectus Supplement,
       unless the context otherwise requires. The Depositor will provide 
       a  copy of the Agreement  (without exhibits) relating  to any series of
       Certificates  without charge  upon written  request  of a  holder of  a
       Certificate of such series addressed  to Morgan Stanley Capital I Inc.,
       c/o Morgan Stanley  & Co. Incorporated, 1585 Broadway,  37th Floor, New
       York, New York 10036, Attention: John E. Westerfield.

       Assignment of Assets; Repurchases

            At  the  time of  issuance  of  any  series of  Certificates,  the
       Depositor  will assign  (or cause  to  be assigned)  to the  designated
       Trustee the  Assets to be included in  the related Trust Fund, together
       with all principal  and interest to be  received on or with  respect to
       such Assets after  the Cut-off Date, other than  principal and interest
       due on or before the Cut-off Date and other than any Retained Interest.
       The  Trustee will,  concurrently  with  such  assignment,  deliver  the
       Certificates to the Depositor in exchange for the Assets  and the other
       assets comprising the  Trust Fund for such series.  Each Mortgage Asset
       will be identified in a schedule appearing as an exhibit to the related
       Agreement.  Unless   otherwise  provided  in  the   related  Prospectus
       Supplement,  such schedule  will include  detailed  information (i)  in
       respect  of  each  Whole  Loan  included in  the  related  Trust  Fund,
       including  without limitation,  the address  of  the related  Mortgaged
       Property  and  type  of  such  property,  the  Mortgage  Rate  and,  if
       applicable, the applicable index, margin, adjustment  date and any rate
       cap  information, the  original  and remaining  term  to maturity,  the
       original and outstanding principal balance and balloon payment, if any,
       the Value, Loan-to-Value  Ratio and the Debt Service  Coverage Ratio as
       of  the  date  indicated  and payment  and  prepayment  provisions,  if
       applicable,  and (ii)  in respect of  each MBS included  in the related
       Trust Fund, including without limitation, the MBS Issuer, MBS  Servicer
       and  MBS  Trustee,  the  pass-through  or  bond  rate  or  formula  for
       determining such rate,  the issue date and original  and remaining term
       to  maturity, if  applicable, the  original  and outstanding  principal
       amount and payment provisions, if applicable.

            With respect  to each  Whole Loan, the  Depositor will  deliver or
       cause to be delivered  to the Trustee (or to the  custodian hereinafter
       referred to) certain  loan documents, which unless  otherwise specified
       in the related Prospectus Supplement will include the original Mortgage
       Note endorsed,  without recourse,  in  blank or  to  the order  of  the
       Trustee,  the original  Mortgage  (or a  certified  copy thereof)  with
       evidence  of  recording  indicated thereon  and  an  assignment of  the
       Mortgage  to  the  Trustee  in  recordable  form.  Notwithstanding  the
       foregoing, a Trust  Fund may include Mortgage Loans  where the original
       Mortgage Note is not delivered to the Trustee if the Depositor delivers
       to the Trustee or  the custodian a copy or a  duplicate original of the
       Mortgage Note, together with an affidavit certifying  that the original
       thereof  has been  lost or  destroyed.  With respect  to such  Mortgage
       Loans,  the Trustee  (or its nominee)  may not  be able to  enforce the
       Mortgage  Note against the related borrower. Unless otherwise specified
       in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Asset Seller will be required
       to agree to repurchase, or substitute for, each such Mortgage Loan that
       is subsequently in default if the enforcement thereof or of the related
       Mortgage is  materially  adversely  affected  by  the  absence  of  the
       original  Mortgage Note.  Unless  otherwise  provided  in  the  related
       Prospectus Supplement, the related Agreement will require the Depositor
       or  another  party  specified  therein  to  promptly  cause  each  such
       assignment of Mortgage to be  recorded in the appropriate public office
       for real  property records,  except in the  State of  California or  in
       other  states  where, in  the  opinion  of  counsel acceptable  to  the
       Trustee,  such  recording  is not  required  to  protect the  Trustee's
       interest in the related Whole Loan  against the claim of any subsequent
       transferee or any successor to or creditor of the Depositor, the Master
       Servicer, the relevant  Asset Seller or  any other prior holder  of the
       Whole Loan.

            The Trustee (or a custodian) will review such Whole Loan documents
       within  a specified  period  of  days after  receipt  thereof, and  the
       Trustee (or  a custodian) will  hold such  documents in  trust for  the
       benefit  of the Certificateholders.  Unless otherwise specified  in the
       related  Prospectus Supplement,  if any  such document  is found  to be
       missing  or defective  in any  material respect,  the Trustee  (or such
       custodian)  shall  immediately  notify  the  Master  Servicer  and  the
       Depositor,  and  the  Master  Servicer  shall  immediately  notify  the
       relevant Asset Seller. If the Asset Seller cannot cure the  omission or
       defect  within a specified number of days after receipt of such notice,
       then unless otherwise  specified in the related  Prospectus Supplement,
       the Asset Seller  will be obligated, within a specified  number of days
       of receipt of  such notice, to repurchase  the related Whole Loan  from
       the Trustee at the Purchase Price or substitute for such Mortgage Loan.
       There can  be  no assurance  that  an Asset  Seller  will fulfill  this
       repurchase  or substitution obligation, and neither the Master Servicer
       nor the  Depositor will  be obligated to  repurchase or  substitute for
       such  Mortgage Loan  if the  Asset Seller  defaults on  its obligation.
       Unless otherwise specified  in the related Prospectus  Supplement, this
       repurchase or  substitution  obligation  constitutes  the  sole  remedy
       available to the Certificateholders or  the Trustee for omission of, or
       a material defect  in, a constituent document. To  the extent specified
       in the related Prospectus Supplement, in lieu of curing any omission or
       defect in the Asset or repurchasing or substituting for such Asset, the
       Asset Seller may agree  to cover any losses suffered by  the Trust Fund
       as a result of such breach or defect.

            If so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Depositor
            will, as to some or all of  the Mortgage Loans, assign or cause to
            be  assigned to  the  Trustee the  related  Lease Assignments.  In
            certain cases, the Trustee, or Master Servicer, as applicable, may
            collect  all  moneys  under  the  related  Leases  and  distribute
            amounts,  if any,  required under  the  Lease for  the payment  of
            maintenance, insurance and taxes, to  the extent specified in  the
            related Lease  agreement. The Trustee,  or if so specified  in the
            Prospectus  Supplement,  the  Master Servicer,  as  agent  for the
            Trustee,  may  hold the  Lease in  trust  for the  benefit  of the
            Certificateholders.

            With  respect to each  Government Security or  MBS in certificated
       form,  the Depositor  will  deliver or  cause  to be  delivered  to the
       Trustee (or the custodian) the original certificate or other definitive
       evidence  of such Government  Security or MBS,  as applicable, together
       with  bond  power  or other  instruments,  certifications  or documents
       required  to  transfer  fully  such  Government  Security  or  MBS,  as
       applicable, to the  Trustee for the benefit  of the Certificateholders.
       With respect  to each Government  Security or MBS in  uncertificated or
       book-entry form  or held through  a "clearing  corporation" within  the
       meaning  of the  UCC, the  Depositor and  the Trustee  will cause  such
       Government Security or MBS to be registered directly or on the books of
       such clearing corporation or of a financial intermediary in the name of
       the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Unless otherwise
       provided  in the related  Prospectus Supplement, the  related Agreement
       will require  that either the  Depositor or the Trustee  promptly cause
       any MBS and Government  Securities in certificated form not  registered
       in  the name  of the Trustee  to be re-registered,  with the applicable
       persons, in the name of the Trustee.

       Representations and Warranties; Repurchases

            Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement the
       Depositor will, with respect to each Whole Loan, make or assign certain
       representations and  warranties, as  of  a specified  date (the  person
       making  such representations and  warranties, the  "Warrantying Party")
       covering, by  way of example,  the following types of  matters: (i) the
       accuracy of  the  information set  forth  for such  Whole  Loan on  the
       schedule of  Assets appearing as  an exhibit to the  related Agreement;
       (ii) the existence of title insurance insuring the lien priority of the
       Whole Loan;  (iii) the authority of  the Warrantying Party to  sell the
       Whole Loan; (iv) the payment status of the Whole Loan and the status of
       payments of taxes, assessments and other charges  affecting the related
       Mortgaged Property; (v)  the existence of  customary provisions in  the
       related Mortgage  Note and Mortgage  to permit realization  against the
       Mortgaged Property of the benefit of  the security of the Mortgage; and
       (vi) the existence of hazard  and extended perils insurance coverage on
       the Mortgaged Property.

            Any Warrantying  Party, if other  than the Depositor, shall  be an
       Asset Seller or an affiliate thereof or such other person acceptable to
       the  Depositor  and  shall  be  identified  in the  related  Prospectus
       Supplement.

            Representations and warranties made in respect of a Whole Loan may
       have been made  as of a  date prior to  the applicable Cut-off  Date. A
       substantial period of  time may have elapsed between such  date and the
       date  of  initial  issuance  of  the  related  series  of  Certificates
       evidencing  an interest in such  Whole Loan. Unless otherwise specified
       in the related Prospectus Supplement, in  the event of a breach of  any
       such   representation  or  warranty,  the  Warrantying  Party  will  be
       obligated to reimburse  the Trust  Fund for losses  caused by any  such
       breach or either cure such breach or repurchase or replace the affected
       Whole Loan as described below. Since the representations and warranties
       may not address  events that may occur  following the date as  of which
       they were made, the Warrantying  Party will have a reimbursement, cure,
       repurchase  or substitution obligation  in connection with  a breach of
       such  a representation  and warranty  only if  the relevant  event that
       causes such breach  occurs prior to such date. Such party would have no
       such obligations if  the relevant event that causes  such breach occurs
       after such date.

            Unless otherwise  provided in the  related Prospectus  Supplement,
       each Agreement will  provide that  the Master  Servicer and/or  Trustee
       will be required  to notify promptly the relevant  Warrantying Party of
       any breach of any representation or warranty made by it in respect of a
       Whole  Loan that  materially and  adversely affects  the value  of such
       Whole Loan or the interests  therein of the Certificateholders. If such
       Warrantying  Party cannot cure  such breach  within a  specified period
       following the date  on which such  party was  notified of such  breach,
       then such Warrantying Party will  be obligated to repurchase such Whole
       Loan from the Trustee within a specified period from the date  on which
       the  Warrantying Party  was notified  of such  breach, at  the Purchase
       Price therefor. As to any Whole Loan, unless otherwise specified in the
       related Prospectus Supplement, the "Purchase Price" is equal to the sum
       of the unpaid  principal balance thereof, plus unpaid  accrued interest
       thereon at the  Mortgage Rate from  the date as  to which interest  was
       last paid  to the due  date in  the Due  Period in  which the  relevant
       purchase  is  to  occur,  plus  certain  servicing  expenses  that  are
       reimbursable to the  Master Servicer. If so provided  in the Prospectus
       Supplement for a series, a  Warrantying Party, rather than repurchase a
       Whole  Loan as to  which a breach  has occurred, will  have the option,
       within  a specified  period after  initial issuance  of such  series of
       Certificates, to 
       cause the removal of such Whole Loan from the Trust Fund and substitute
       in  its place  one or more  other Whole  Loans, in accordance  with the
       standards  described  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement.  If  so
       provided  in  the Prospectus  Supplement  for a  series,  a Warrantying
       Party, rather than  repurchase or substitute a Whole Loan as to which a
       breach  has occurred, will have the  option to reimburse the Trust Fund
       or the Certificateholders for any  losses caused by such breach. Unless
       otherwise  specified   in  the  related  Prospectus   Supplement,  this
       reimbursement,  repurchase or  substitution obligation  will constitute
       the sole remedy available to holders of Certificates or the Trustee for
       a breach of representation by a Warrantying Party.

            Neither  the  Depositor (except  to  the  extent  that it  is  the
       Warrantying  Party) nor  the  Master  Servicer  will  be  obligated  to
       purchase or substitute for a Whole Loan if a Warrantying Party defaults
       on  its  obligation  to do  so,  and  no assurance  can  be  given that
       Warrantying Parties  will carry out  such obligations  with respect  to
       Whole Loans.

            Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement the
       Warrantying  Party will,  with respect  to a  Trust Fund  that includes
       Government Securities or MBS, make or assign certain representations or
       warranties, as  of a  specified date, with  respect to  such Government
       Securities or  MBS, covering  (i) the accuracy  of the  information set
       forth therefor on the schedule of Assets appearing as an exhibit to the
       related Agreement  and (ii) the  authority of the Warrantying  Party to
       sell such Assets.  The related Prospectus Supplement will  describe the
       remedies for a breach thereof.

            A Master Servicer will make certain representations and warranties
       regarding  its authority to enter into, and  its ability to perform its
       obligations  under,  the  related  Agreement.  A  breach  of  any  such
       representation  of the Master  Servicer which materially  and adversely
       affects the  interests of  the Certificateholders  and which  continues
       unremedied for thirty days  after the giving of written  notice of such
       breach to the  Master Servicer by the  Trustee or the Depositor,  or to
       the Master  Servicer, the Depositor and  the Trustee by the  holders of
       Certificates evidencing not less than  25% of the Voting Rights (unless
       otherwise  specified   in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement),  will
       constitute  an  Event  of  Default  under  such  Pooling  and Servicing
       Agreement. See "Events of Default" and "Rights Upon Event of Default."

       Certificate Account and Other Collection Accounts

        General

            The  Master Servicer  and/or the  Trustee will,  as to  each Trust
       Fund, establish and maintain or  cause to be established and maintained
       one or more  separate accounts for  the collection  of payments on  the
       related Assets (collectively, the "Certificate Account"), which must be
       either (i) an account or accounts the deposits in which are  insured by
       the Bank  Insurance Fund or  the Savings Association Insurance  Fund of
       the  Federal  Deposit  Insurance Corporation  ("FDIC")  (to  the limits
       established  by the  FDIC)  and  the uninsured  deposits  in which  are
       otherwise  secured such that  the Certificateholders have  a claim with
       respect to the  funds in the Certificate  Account or a  perfected first
       priority security interest  against any collateral securing  such funds
       that  is  superior to  the claims  of any  other depositors  or general
       creditors of  the institution  with  which the  Certificate Account  is
       maintained or (ii)  otherwise maintained with a bank  or trust company,
       and in a manner, satisfactory  to the Rating Agency or  Agencies rating
       any class  of Certificates of  such series. The collateral  eligible to
       secure amounts in  the Certificate Account is limited  to United States
       government securities and other investment grade obligations  specified
       in the Agreement  ("Permitted Investments"). A Certificate  Account may
       be maintained as an interest  bearing or a non-interest bearing account
       and  the funds  held therein  may be  invested pending  each succeeding
       Distribution Date in certain  short-term Permitted Investments.  Unless
       otherwise provided in  the related Prospectus Supplement,  any interest
       or other income earned on funds in the Certificate Account will be paid
       to  a  Master  Servicer   or  its  designee  as   additional  servicing
       compensation.  The  Certificate  Account  may  be  maintained  with  an
       institution that is an affiliate of the Master Servicer, if applicable,
       provided  that  such institution  meets  the standards  imposed  by the
       Rating  Agency  or Agencies.  If  permitted  by  the Rating  Agency  or
       Agencies and  so  specified in  the  related Prospectus  Supplement,  a
       Certificate Account may contain funds  relating to more than one series
       of  mortgage  pass-through  certificates and  may  contain  other funds
       respecting payments on mortgage loans  belonging to the Master Servicer
       or serviced or master serviced by it on behalf of others.

        Deposits

            A  Master Servicer  or the  Trustee will  deposit or  cause  to be
       deposited in  the Certificate Account for one or  more Trust Funds on a
       daily basis, unless  otherwise provided in  the related Agreement,  the
       following payments and collections  received, or advances made, by  the
       Master Servicer  or the  Trustee or  on  its behalf  subsequent to  the
       Cut-off Date (other  than payments due on  or before the  Cut-off Date,
       and exclusive of any amounts representing a Retained Interest):

         (i) all   payments  on  account  of  principal,  including  principal
       prepayments, on the Assets;

         (ii) all payments on account of interest on the Assets, including any
       default interest  collected, in  each case net  of any  portion thereof
       retained  by a Master Servicer, a Sub-Servicer or a Special Servicer as
       its servicing compensation and net of any Retained Interest;

         (iii) all proceeds of  the hazard, business interruption  and general
       liability  insurance  policies  to  be maintained  in  respect  of each
       Mortgaged Property  securing a  Whole Loan in  the Trust  Fund (to  the
       extent such proceeds are not applied to the restoration of the property
       or released  to the mortgagor  in accordance with the  normal servicing
       procedures of a Master Servicer or the related Sub-Servicer, subject to
       the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note) and
       all  proceeds of rental interruption policies, if any, insuring against
       losses arising from the failure of Lessees under a Lease to make timely
       rental  payments  because  of  certain  casualty events  (collectively,
       "Insurance  Proceeds") and all  other amounts received  and retained in
       connection with  the liquidation  of  defaulted Mortgage  Loans in  the
       Trust  Fund,  by  foreclosure or  otherwise  ("Liquidation  Proceeds"),
       together with  the net proceeds on a monthly  basis with respect to any
       Mortgaged  Properties acquired for the benefit of Certificateholders by
       foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise;

         (iv) any amounts  paid under  any instrument or  drawn from  any fund
       that constitutes Credit  Support for the related series of Certificates
       as described under "Description of Credit Support";

         (v) any   advances  made  as  described  under  "Description  of  the
       Certificates--Advances in Respect of Delinquencies";

         (vi) any amounts representing Prepayment Premiums;

         (vii) any  amounts paid under  any Cash Flow  Agreement, as described
       under "Description of the Trust Funds--Cash Flow Agreements";

         (viii) all proceeds of  any Asset or, with  respect to a  Whole Loan,
       property acquired in  respect thereof purchased  by the Depositor,  any
       Asset  Seller   or  any  other  specified  person  as  described  under
       "Assignment   of   Assets;   Repurchases"  and   "Representations   and
       Warranties; Repurchases," all  proceeds of any defaulted  Mortgage Loan
       purchased  as described under "Realization Upon Defaulted Whole Loans,"
       and all proceeds of any Asset purchased as described under "Description
       of the Certificates Termination" (also, "Liquidation Proceeds");

         (ix) any amounts paid by a  Master Servicer to cover certain interest
       shortfalls  arising out of the  prepayment of Whole  Loans in the Trust
       Fund  as  described  under  "Description  of  the  Agreements  Retained
       Interest; Servicing Compensation and Payment of Expenses";

         (x) to the extent  that any such item does  not constitute additional
       servicing compensation to a Master Servicer, any payments on account of
       modification  or  assumption  fees,  late  payment charges,  Prepayment
       Premiums or  Equity Participations  on the  Mortgage Assets;   (xi) all
       payments required  to  be deposited  in  the Certificate  Account  with
       respect  to any  deductible  clause  in  any blanket  insurance  policy
       described under "Hazard Insurance Policies";

         (xii) any amount required to be deposited by a Master Servicer or the
       Trustee  in connection  with  losses realized  on  investments for  the
       benefit  of the Master Servicer or the Trustee,  as the case may be, of
       funds held in the Certificate Account; and

         (xiii) any other amounts required to be deposited  in the Certificate
       Account  as provided  in the  related  Agreement and  described in  the
       related Prospectus Supplement.

        Withdrawals

            A Master Servicer  or the Trustee may,  from time to  time, unless
       otherwise provided  in  the  related Agreement  and  described  in  the
       related Prospectus Supplement,  make withdrawals  from the  Certificate
       Account for each Trust Fund for any of the following purposes:

         (i) to  make   distributions  to   the  Certificateholders   on  each
       Distribution Date;

         (ii) to reimburse a Master Servicer for unreimbursed amounts advanced
       as described under "Description of the Certificates Advances in Respect
       of  Delinquencies,"  such  reimbursement  to  be  made out  of  amounts
       received which  were identified and  applied by the Master  Servicer as
       late  collections of  interest  (net  of  related  servicing  fees  and
       Retained Interest) on and principal  of the particular Whole Loans with
       respect to which the  advances were made or out of  amounts drawn under
       any form of Credit Support with respect to such Whole Loans;

         (iii) to reimburse a Master Servicer for unpaid servicing fees earned
       and  certain unreimbursed servicing  expenses incurred with  respect to
       Whole   Loans  and  properties   acquired  in  respect   thereof,  such
       reimbursement to  be  made out  of amounts  that represent  Liquidation
       Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds collected on the particular Whole Loans
       and properties,  and net income collected on the particular properties,
       with  respect to  which such  fees were  earned  or such  expenses were
       incurred or out of amounts drawn under  any form of Credit Support with
       respect to such Whole Loans and properties;

         (iv) to reimburse  a Master  Servicer for  any advances described  in
       clause (ii) above and any  servicing expenses described in clause (iii)
       above which, in  the Master Servicer's good faith judgment, will not be
       recoverable  from  the amounts  described  in clauses  (ii)  and (iii),
       respectively, such reimbursement to  be made from amounts collected  on
       other  Assets or,  if and  to  the extent  so provided  by  the related
       Agreement and described in the related Prospectus Supplement, just from
       that portion  of amounts  collected on other  Assets that  is otherwise
       distributable  on one or  more classes of  Subordinate Certificates, if
       any,  remain  outstanding,  and  otherwise  any  outstanding  class  of
       Certificates, of the related series;

         (v) if  and  to  the  extent  described  in  the  related  Prospectus
       Supplement, to pay  a Master Servicer interest accrued  on the advances
       described in clause (ii) above  and the servicing expenses described in
       clause (iii) above while such remain outstanding and unreimbursed;

         (vi) to  pay for costs  and expenses incurred  by the Trust  Fund for
       environmental  site assessments with  respect to, and  for containment,
       clean-up or remediation  of hazardous wastes, substances  and materials
       on,  Mortgaged Properties securing  defaulted Whole Loans  as described
       under "Realization Upon Defaulted Whole Loans";

         (vii) to reimburse a Master Servicer,  the Depositor, or any of their
       respective directors, officers, employees  and agents, as the  case may
       be, for  certain expenses, costs  and liabilities incurred  thereby, as
       and to the  extent described under "Certain Matters  Regarding a Master
       Servicer and the Depositor";

         (viii) if and  to  the extent  described  in the  related  Prospectus
       Supplement,  to pay (or to transfer to  a separate account for purposes
       of escrowing for the payment of) the Trustee's fees;

         (ix) to  reimburse  the Trustee  or any  of its  directors, officers,
       employees and agents, as  the case may be, for  certain expenses, costs
       and liabilities incurred thereby, as  and to the extent described under
       "Certain Matters Regarding the Trustee";

         (x) unless otherwise provided in  the related Prospectus  Supplement,
       to  pay  a  Master  Servicer,  as  additional  servicing  compensation,

       Certificate Account;

         (xi) to pay the person entitled  thereto any amounts deposited in the
       Certificate  Account that  were identified  and  applied by  the Master

       state  or local  taxes  imposed on  the  Trust Fund  or  its assets  or
       transactions,  as and to  the extent  described under  "Certain Federal

         (xiv) to pay for the cost of an independent appraiser or other expert

         (xv) to  pay for  the cost  of various  opinions of  counsel obtained
       pursuant    to   the   related    Agreement   for   the    benefit   of
       Certificateholders;

         (xvi) to pay for the costs of recording the related Agreement if such
       recordation  materially  and  beneficially  affects  the  interests  of
       Certificateholders, provided that  such payment shall not  constitute a

         (xvii) to pay  the person entitled  thereto any amounts  deposited in

       purchase  or substitution  as contemplated  by  "Assignment of  Assets;
       Repurchase"  and  "Representations  and   Warranties;  Repurchases"  or
       otherwise;

         (xviii) to  make any  other  withdrawals  permitted  by  the  related
       Agreement and described in the related Prospectus Supplement; and

         (xix) to  clear  and   terminate  the  Certificate  Account   at  the
       termination of the Trust Fund.

        Other Collection Accounts

            Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  if so  specified  in the  related
       Prospectus Supplement, the Agreement for any series of Certificates may
       provide for  the establishment and maintenance of a separate collection
       account into which  the Master Servicer or any  related Sub-Servicer or
       Special Servicer  will deposit on  a daily basis the  amounts described
       under "--Deposits"  above for one  or more series of  Certificates. Any
       amounts on  deposit in  any such collection  account will  be withdrawn
       therefrom  and deposited into the  appropriate Certificate Account by a
       time  specified in  the related  Prospectus Supplement.  To the  extent
       specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, any amounts which could
       be   withdrawn  from  the   Certificate  Account  as   described  under
       "--Withdrawals" above, may also  be withdrawn from any such  collection
       account. The Prospectus Supplement will set forth any restrictions with
       respect   to  any   such  collection   account,  including   investment
       restrictions   and   any  restrictions   with   respect  to   financial
       institutions with which any such collection account may be maintained.

       Collection and Other Servicing Procedures

            The  Master  Servicer,  directly  or  through  Sub-Servicers,   is
       required to make reasonable  efforts to collect all scheduled  payments
       under the  Whole Loans  and will follow  or cause  to be  followed such
       collection procedures as it would follow with respect to mortgage loans
       that are comparable  to the Whole Loans  and held for its  own account,
       provided  such procedures  are consistent  with  (i) the  terms of  the
       related Agreement and any related hazard, business interruption, rental
       interruption or  general liability  insurance policy  or instrument  of
       Credit Support included  in the related Trust Fund  described herein or
       under  "Description of Credit  Support," (ii) applicable  law and (iii)
       the  general servicing  standard specified  in  the related  Prospectus
       Supplement  or,  if  no  such  standard is  so  specified,  its  normal
       servicing  practices (in  either case,  the  "Servicing Standard").  In
       connection  therewith,  the Master  Servicer will  be permitted  in its
       discretion  to waive  any late  payment charge  or penalty  interest in
       respect of a late Whole Loan payment.

            Each  Master  Servicer will  also  be  required to  perform  other
       customary  functions of  a  servicer  of  comparable  loans,  including
       maintaining (or  causing the  mortgagor or Lessee  on each  Mortgage or
       Lease  to maintain) hazard, business interruption and general liability
       insurance policies  (and, if applicable, rental  interruption policies)
       as  described  herein and  in  any related  Prospectus  Supplement, and
       filing   and  settling   claims  thereunder;   maintaining  escrow   or
       impoundment  accounts of mortgagors for payment of taxes, insurance and
       other items required to be paid by  any mortgagor pursuant to the Whole
       Loan; processing assumptions or substitutions  in those cases where the
       Master   Servicer  has  determined   not  to  enforce   any  applicable
       due-on-sale  clause;  attempting  to  cure  delinquencies;  supervising
       foreclosures;  inspecting  and  managing  Mortgaged  Properties   under
       certain circumstances;  and maintaining accounting records  relating to
       the Whole Loans. Unless  otherwise specified in the  related Prospectus
       Supplement,  the Master  Servicer  will be  responsible for  filing and
       settling  claims  in  respect  of  particular  Whole  Loans  under  any
       applicable instrument  of Credit  Support. See  "Description of  Credit
       Support."

            The Master Servicer may agree  to modify, waive or amend any  term
       of any Whole Loan in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard so
       long as the modification,  waiver or amendment will not  (i) affect the
       amount or timing  of any scheduled payments of principal or interest on
       the Whole Loan or (ii) in  its judgment, materially impair the security
       for  the  Whole Loan  or  reduce the  likelihood of  timely  payment of
       amounts  due  thereon.  The  Master  Servicer also  may  agree  to  any
       modification, waiver  or amendment that  would so affect or  impair the
       payments on, or the security for, a Whole Loan if, 
       unless otherwise  provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, (i) in
       its judgment, a  material default on the  Whole Loan has occurred  or a
       payment  default  is   imminent  and   (ii)  in   its  judgment,   such
       modification, waiver  or amendment is  reasonably likely  to produce  a
       greater  recovery with  respect to  the Whole  Loan on a  present value
       basis than would liquidation. The Master Servicer is required to notify
       the Trustee in  the event of any  modification, waiver or amendment  of
       any Whole Loan.

       Sub-Servicers

            A  Master Servicer  may  delegate  its  servicing  obligations  in
       respect   of  the  Whole  Loans  to   third-party  servicers  (each,  a
       "Sub-Servicer"), but such  Master Servicer will remain  obligated under
       the  related Agreement. Each  sub-servicing agreement between  a Master
       Servicer  and  a  Sub-Servicer (a  "Sub-Servicing  Agreement")  must be
       consistent with  the terms  of the related  Agreement and  must provide
       that, if for any  reason the Master Servicer for the  related series of
       Certificates  is no longer acting in  such capacity, the Trustee or any
       successor Master Servicer  may assume the Master  Servicer's rights and
       obligations under such Sub-Servicing Agreement.

            Unless  otherwise provided in  the related  Prospectus Supplement,
       the  Master Servicer will be  solely liable for all  fees owed by it to
       any  Sub-Servicer,  irrespective  of  whether  the  Master   Servicer's
       compensation  pursuant to the  related Agreement  is sufficient  to pay
       such  fees. However,  a  Sub-Servicer  may be  entitled  to a  Retained
       Interest in certain Whole  Loans. Each Sub-Servicer will be  reimbursed
       by  the  Master  Servicer  for certain  expenditures  which  it  makes,
       generally to  the same extent  the Master Servicer would  be reimbursed
       under  an Agreement. See "Retained Interest, Servicing Compensation and
       Payment of Expenses."

       Special Servicers

            To the extent so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, a
       special servicer (the "Special Servicer") may be appointed. The related
       Prospectus  Supplement  will  describe   the  rights,  obligations  and
       compensation of  a Special Servicer.  The Master Servicer will  only be
       responsible for the duties and obligations of a Special Servicer to the
       extent set forth in the Prospectus Supplement.
        
       Realization Upon Defaulted Whole Loans

            A  mortgagor's failure  to  make  required  payments  may  reflect
       inadequate income or the diversion of  that income from the service  of
       payments due under  the Mortgage Loan, and may call  into question such
       mortgagor's ability to  make timely  payment of  taxes and  to pay  for
       necessary  maintenance  of  the  related   Mortgaged  Property.  Unless
       otherwise provided  in the  related Prospectus  Supplement, the  Master
       Servicer  is required  to monitor any  Whole Loan which  is in default,
       contact  the mortgagor  concerning the  default,  evaluate whether  the
       causes of  the default can  be cured  over a reasonable  period without
       significant impairment of the value of the Mortgaged Property, initiate
       corrective action in cooperation with  the mortgagor if cure is likely,
       inspect  the Mortgaged  Property and  take  such other  actions as  are
       consistent with the  Servicing Standard. A  significant period of  time
       may elapse before  the Master Servicer is able to assess the success of
       such corrective action or the need for additional initiatives.

            The  time  within which  the  Master  Servicer makes  the  initial
       determination   of  appropriate   action,  evaluates  the   success  of
       corrective   action,   develops  additional   initiatives,   institutes
       foreclosure proceedings and  actually forecloses (or takes a  deed to a
       Mortgaged  Property   in  lieu  of   foreclosure)  on  behalf   of  the
       Certificateholders, may  vary considerably depending on  the particular
       Whole Loan, the  Mortgaged Property, the mortgagor, the  presence of an
       acceptable  party  to assume  the  Whole  Loan  and  the  laws  of  the
       jurisdiction in which  the Mortgaged Property is located. Under federal
       bankruptcy  law,  the Master  Servicer  in  certain  cases may  not  be
       permitted to  accelerate a Whole  Loan or to  foreclose on  a Mortgaged
       Property for a considerable period  of time. See "Certain Legal Aspects
       of the Mortgage--Loans and the Leases."

            Any Agreement relating  to a Trust Fund that  includes Whole Loans
       may grant  to  the Master  Servicer  and/or the  holder or  holders  of
       certain classes  of Certificates a  right of first refusal  to purchase
       from  the Trust Fund at  a predetermined purchase  price any such Whole
       Loan as  to which a  specified number of scheduled  payments thereunder
       are delinquent.  Any such  right granted  to the  holder of  an Offered
       Certificate will be described in the related Prospectus Supplement. The
       related Prospectus Supplement will also describe any such right granted
       to any  person if  the predetermined purchase  price is  less than  the
       Purchase  Price  described   under  "Representations  and   Warranties;
       Repurchases."

            Unless otherwise  specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement,
            the Master  Servicer may  offer to sell  any defaulted  Whole Loan
            described in the  preceding paragraph and not  otherwise purchased
            by  any  person having  a  right  of  first refusal  with  respect
            thereto,  if and when  the Master Servicer  determines, consistent
            with  the Servicing  Standard, that  such a  sale would  produce a
            greater  recovery on a present value  basis than would liquidation
            through foreclosure  or similar proceeding.  The related Agreement
            will  provide that  any such  offering be  made in  a commercially
            reasonable  manner for  a  specified period  and  that the  Master
            Servicer accept  the  highest cash  bid received  from any  person
            (including itself,  an affiliate  of  the Master  Servicer or  any
            Certificateholder)   that  constitutes  a   fair  price  for  such
            defaulted  Whole Loan.  In the  absence of  any bid  determined in
            accordance  with  the related  Agreement  to be  fair,  the Master
            Servicer shall  proceed with  respect to  such defaulted  Mortgage
            Loan as described  below. Any bid in  an amount at least  equal to
            the   Purchase   Price   described   under  "Representations   and
            Warranties; Repurchases" will in all cases be deemed fair.

            The Master  Servicer, on behalf  of the Trustee,  may at any  time
       institute foreclosure proceedings, exercise any power of sale contained
       in any  mortgage, obtain a  deed in  lieu of foreclosure,  or otherwise
       acquire  title  to  a  Mortgaged  Property securing  a  Whole  Loan  by
       operation of  law or otherwise,  if such action is  consistent with the
       Servicing Standard and a default on such Whole Loan has occurred or, in
       the Master Servicer's judgment, is imminent. Unless otherwise specified
       in  the related  Prospectus  Supplement, the  Master  Servicer may  not
       acquire  title to  any related  Mortgaged  Property or  take any  other
       action   that  would   cause   the   Trustee,   for  the   benefit   of
       Certificateholders, or any other  specified person to be considered  to
       hold  title to,  to  be a  "mortgagee-in-possession"  of, or  to  be an
       "owner" or an "operator" of  such Mortgaged Property within the meaning
       of  certain federal environmental laws, unless  the Master Servicer has
       previously  determined, based  on a  report  prepared by  a person  who
       regularly  conducts environmental  audits  (which  report  will  be  an
       expense of the Trust Fund), that either:

         (i) the  Mortgaged  Property   is  in   compliance  with   applicable
       environmental  laws, and  there  are no  circumstances  present at  the
       Mortgaged Property relating  to the use, management or  disposal of any
       hazardous substances, hazardous  materials, wastes, or  petroleum-based
       materials for  which investigation,  testing, monitoring,  containment,
       clean-up or remediation  could be required under any  federal, state or
       local law or regulation; or

         (ii) if  the Mortgaged  Property  is  not so  in  compliance or  such
       circumstances  are so present,  then it would  be in the  best economic
       interest of the Trust Fund  to acquire title to the  Mortgaged Property
       and further to take  such actions as would be necessary and appropriate
       to effect such  compliance and/or  respond to  such circumstances  (the
       cost of which actions will be an expense of the Trust Fund).

            Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, if
       title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired by a Trust Fund as to which
       a REMIC  election has been made, the Master  Servicer, on behalf of the
       Trust Fund, will  be required to sell  the Mortgaged Property prior  to
       the close of the third calendar year following the  year of acquisition
       of such Mortgaged  Property by the Trust Fund,  unless (i) the Internal
       Revenue Service  grants an extension of  time to sell  such property or
       (ii)  the Trustee  receives an  opinion of  independent counsel  to the
       effect that the holding of the property by the Trust Fund subsequent to
       such period  will not result  in the imposition  of a tax  on the Trust
       Fund or cause  the Trust Fund to  fail to qualify as a  REMIC under the
       Code at  any time that any  Certificate is outstanding. Subject  to the
       foregoing, the Master Servicer will be required to (i) solicit bids for
       any Mortgaged  Property  so  acquired  in such  a  manner  as  will  be
       reasonably likely to realize  a fair price  for such property and  (ii)
       accept the first (and, if multiple bids are contemporaneously received,
       the highest) cash bid  received from any person that constitutes a fair
       price.

            If the  Trust Fund acquires  title to any Mortgaged  Property, the
       Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, may retain an independent
       contractor to  manage and  operate such property.  The retention  of an
       independent contractor, however,  will not relieve the  Master Servicer
       of any of its obligations with respect  to the management and operation
       of such Mortgaged  Property. Unless otherwise specified  in the related
       Prospectus Supplement, any  such property  acquired by  the Trust  Fund
       will  be  managed  in  a  manner consistent  with  the  management  and
       operation of similar property by a prudent lending institution.

            The limitations  imposed by  the related  Agreement and  the REMIC
       provisions of the Code (if a REMIC election has been made  with respect
       to the  related Trust  Fund) on  the  operations and  ownership of  any
       Mortgaged Property acquired on behalf of  the Trust Fund may result  in
       the recovery of an amount less than the amount that would  otherwise be
       recovered. See  "Certain Legal  Aspects of the  Mortgage Loans  and the
       Leases--Foreclosure."

            If recovery on a defaulted Whole Loan under any related instrument
       of Credit  Support is not  available, the Master  Servicer nevertheless
       will  be obligated  to  follow  or cause  to  be  followed such  normal
       practices and procedures as it deems 
       necessary or advisable to realize upon the defaulted Whole Loan. If the
       proceeds  of  any liquidation  of the  property securing  the defaulted
       Whole  Loan are  less than  the  outstanding principal  balance of  the
       defaulted Whole Loan plus interest accrued thereon at the Mortgage Rate
       plus the aggregate  amount of expenses incurred by  the Master Servicer
       in connection  with such proceedings  and which are  reimbursable under
       the Agreement, the Trust Fund will realize a loss in the amount of such
       difference. The Master  Servicer will be entitled to  withdraw or cause
       to be  withdrawn from  the Certificate Account  out of  the Liquidation
       Proceeds  recovered  on   any  defaulted  Whole  Loan,   prior  to  the
       distribution  of  such  Liquidation   Proceeds  to  Certificateholders,
       amounts representing  its normal  servicing compensation  on the  Whole
       Loan,  unreimbursed servicing  expenses incurred  with  respect to  the
       Whole Loan and  any unreimbursed advances  of delinquent payments  made
       with respect to the Whole Loan.

            If any  property securing  a defaulted Whole  Loan is  damaged and
       proceeds,  if  any,  from  the  related  hazard  insurance  policy  are
       insufficient to restore the damaged  property to a condition sufficient
       to permit recovery  under the related instrument of  Credit Support, if
       any, the  Master Servicer is  not required to  expend its own  funds to
       restore the  damaged  property  unless  it  determines  (i)  that  such
       restoration  will   increase  the  proceeds  to  Certificateholders  on
       liquidation  of  the  Whole  Loan after  reimbursement  of  the  Master
       Servicer  for  its  expenses  and  (ii)  that  such  expenses  will  be
       recoverable  by it  from  related  Insurance  Proceeds  or  Liquidation
       Proceeds.

            As servicer of the  Whole Loans, a  Master Servicer, on behalf  of
       itself, the Trustee and the Certificateholders,  will present claims to
       the obligor under each instrument of Credit Support, and will take such
       reasonable  steps as  are necessary  to  receive payment  or to  permit
       recovery thereunder with respect to defaulted Whole Loans.

            If a Master  Servicer or its designee recovers  payments under any
       instrument of Credit Support with  respect to any defaulted Whole Loan,
       the  Master  Servicer  will be  entitled  to withdraw  or  cause  to be
       withdrawn from the  Certificate Account out of such  proceeds, prior to
       distribution thereof  to Certificateholders,  amounts representing  its
       normal  servicing   compensation  on  such  Whole   Loan,  unreimbursed
       servicing  expenses incurred  with respect  to the  Whole Loan  and any
       unreimbursed  advances of delinquent payments  made with respect to the
       Whole Loan. See "Hazard Insurance  Policies" and "Description of Credit
       Support."

       Hazard Insurance Policies

            Unless otherwise  specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement,
       each Agreement  for a Trust Fund that includes Whole Loans will require
       the  Master  Servicer to  cause the  mortgagor  on each  Whole  Loan to
       maintain a  hazard insurance policy  providing for such coverage  as is
       required under  the related  Mortgage or, if  any Mortgage  permits the
       holder thereof to dictate to the mortgagor the insurance coverage to be
       maintained on the related Mortgaged  Property, then such coverage as is
       consistent with the  Servicing Standard. Unless otherwise  specified in
       the related Prospectus Supplement, such  coverage will be in general in
       an amount equal  to the lesser of  the principal balance owing  on such
       Whole Loan and the amount necessary to fully compensate  for any damage
       or loss to the improvements on the Mortgaged Property on a  replacement
       cost basis, but  in either case not  less than the amount  necessary to
       avoid  the application  of  any co-insurance  clause  contained in  the
       hazard insurance policy.  The ability of the Master  Servicer to assure
       that  hazard  insurance  proceeds  are  appropriately  applied  may  be
       dependent  upon its  being named  as  an additional  insured under  any
       hazard insurance policy  and under any other  insurance policy referred
       to below, or  upon the extent  to which information  in this regard  is
       furnished  by mortgagors. All amounts collected  by the Master Servicer
       under  any  such  policy (except  for  amounts  to  be  applied to  the
       restoration  or repair  of the  Mortgaged Property  or released  to the
       mortgagor in  accordance with  the Master  Servicer's normal  servicing
       procedures, subject to the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage
       and Mortgage  Note) will be  deposited in the Certificate  Account. The
       Agreement  will provide  that  the  Master  Servicer  may  satisfy  its
       obligation to cause each mortgagor  to maintain such a hazard insurance
       policy by the Master  Servicer's maintaining a blanket  policy insuring
       against  hazard losses  on  the  Whole Loans.  If  such blanket  policy
       contains a deductible  clause, the Master Servicer will  be required to
       deposit  in the  Certificate  Account  all sums  that  would have  been
       deposited therein but for such clause.

            In general, the standard form of fire and extended coverage policy
       covers physical  damage to  or destruction of  the improvements  of the
       property by fire, lightning, explosion,  smoke, windstorm and hail, and
       riot,  strike  and  civil  commotion,  subject to  the  conditions  and
       exclusions specified in each policy. Although the policies  relating to
       the  Whole  Loans will  be  underwritten  by  different insurers  under
       different  state laws  in accordance  with  different applicable  state
       forms, and therefore  will not contain identical  terms and conditions,
       the basic terms thereof are dictated by respective state laws, and most
       such policies typically do not cover any physical damage resulting from
       war, revolution,  governmental actions, floods and  other water-related
       causes,   earth  movement   (including   earthquakes,  landslides   and
       mudflows), wet or  dry rot, vermin, domestic animals  and certain other
       kinds of uninsured risks.

            The hazard  insurance policies  covering the  Mortgaged Properties
       securing the Whole  Loans will typically contain  a co-insurance clause
       that in effect requires the insured at all times to carry  insurance of
       a specified percentage  (generally 80% to 90%) of  the full replacement
       value of the  improvements on the property in order to recover the full
       amount of  any partial loss. If the insured's coverage falls below this
       specified percentage, such clause generally provides that the insurer's
       liability in the  event of partial loss  does not exceed the  lesser of
       (i) the replacement cost of the improvements less physical depreciation
       and (ii) such proportion of the loss as the amount of insurance carried
       bears  to the specified percentage of the full replacement cost of such
       improvements.

            Each Agreement  for a  Trust Fund that  includes Whole  Loans will
       require the Master Servicer to cause the  mortgagor on each Whole Loan,
       or, in  certain cases, the  related Lessee, to maintain  all such other
       insurance coverage with respect to the related Mortgaged Property as is
       consistent with  the terms  of the related  Mortgage and  the Servicing
       Standard, which insurance may typically include flood insurance (if the
       related Mortgaged Property was located at  the time of origination in a
       federally designated flood area).

            In addition, to  the extent required by the  related Mortgage, the
       Master Servicer may require the mortgagor or related Lessee to maintain
       other forms  of insurance including, but  not limited to, loss  of rent
       endorsements, business interruption insurance  and comprehensive public
       liability  insurance, and the related Agreement  may require the Master
       Servicer, Sub-Servicer or Special Servicer to maintain public liability
       insurance with  respect to any REO Properties. Any cost incurred by the
       Master Servicer in maintaining any  such insurance policy will be added
       to the  amount owing  under the Mortgage  Loan where  the terms  of the
       Mortgage Loan so  permit; provided, however, that the  addition of such
       cost will not  be taken into  account for purposes  of calculating  the
       distribution  to  be made  to  Certificateholders.  Such costs  may  be
       recovered by the Master Servicer, Sub-Servicer  or Special Servicer, as
       the case may be, from the Collection Account, with interest thereon, as
       provided by the Agreement.

            Under the terms  of the Whole Loans, mortgagors  will generally be
       required to present claims to insurers under  hazard insurance policies
       maintained on the related Mortgaged Properties. The Master Servicer, on
       behalf of the Trustee  and Certificateholders, is obligated to  present
       or  cause to  be presented  claims under  any blanket  insurance policy
       insuring against  hazard losses  on Mortgaged  Properties securing  the
       Whole  Loans. However, the ability of the Master Servicer to present or
       cause to be presented such claims is dependent upon the extent to which
       information  in this  regard is  furnished  to the  Master Servicer  by
       mortgagors.

       Rental Interruption Insurance Policy

            If so specified  in the related Prospectus  Supplement, the Master
       Servicer  or the mortgagors will maintain rental interruption insurance
       policies  in full force and  effect with respect to  some or all of the
       Leases.  Although the  terms of such  policies vary  to some  degree, a
       rental  interruption insurance policy  typically provides that,  to the
       extent that  a Lessee  fails to make  timely rental payments  under the
       related Lease due  to a casualty event, such losses  will be reimbursed
       to the insured.  If so specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement,
       the  Master  Servicer  will  be  required to  pay  from  its  servicing
       compensation the premiums on the rental interruption policy on a timely
       basis. If  so specified  in the Prospectus  Supplement, if  such rental
       interruption policy  is canceled or  terminated for  any reason  (other
       than the exhaustion of total policy coverage), the Master Servicer will
       exercise its best  reasonable efforts to obtain from  another insurer a
       replacement policy comparable  to the rental interruption policy with a
       total  coverage that  is equal  to the  then existing  coverage of  the
       terminated rental interruption policy; provided that if the cost of any
       such  replacement policy  is greater  than the  cost of  the terminated
       rental   interruption  policy,  the   amount  of  coverage   under  the
       replacement  policy will,  unless otherwise  specified  in the  related
       Prospectus Supplement, be  reduced to a level such  that the applicable
       premium does not exceed,  by a percentage that may be set  forth in the
       related  Prospectus Supplement,  the cost  of  the rental  interruption
       policy that was replaced. Any  amounts collected by the Master Servicer
       under  the  rental  interruption  policy in  the  nature  of  insurance
       proceeds will be deposited in the Certificate Account.

       Fidelity Bonds and Errors and Omissions Insurance

            Unless otherwise  specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement,
       each Agreement  will require that  the Master Servicer and  any Special
       Servicer obtain and maintain  in effect a fidelity bond or similar form
       of  insurance  coverage (which  may  provide blanket  coverage)  or any
       combination thereof insuring against loss occasioned by fraud, theft or
       other intentional misconduct of the  officers, employees and agents  of
       the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable. The related
       Agreement will  allow the Master  Servicer and any Special  Servicer to
       self-insure against loss occasioned by the errors and 
       omissions of the officers, employees  and agents of the Master Servicer
       or the Special  Servicer so long as  certain criteria set forth  in the
       Agreement are met.

       Due-on-Sale and Due-on-Encumbrance Provisions

            Certain  of  the Whole  Loans  may contain  clauses  requiring the
       consent of the mortgagee to any  sale or other transfer of the  related
       Mortgaged Property, or  due-on-sale clauses entitling the  mortgagee to
       accelerate payment of the Whole Loan upon any sale or other transfer of
       the related Mortgaged Property. Certain  of the Whole Loans may contain
       clauses requiring the consent  of the mortgagee to the creation  of any
       other    lien   or   encumbrance   on   the   Mortgaged   Property   or
       due-on-encumbrance  clauses  entitling  the  mortgagee  to   accelerate
       payment  of the  Whole Loan  upon  the creation  of any  other  lien or
       encumbrance upon the  Mortgaged Property. Unless otherwise  provided in
       the related  Prospectus Supplement, the  Master Servicer, on  behalf of
       the Trust  Fund,  will exercise  any  right  the Trustee  may  have  as
       mortgagee to  accelerate payment of any such  Whole Loan or to withhold
       its  consent  to  any  transfer  or further  encumbrance  in  a  manner
       consistent with the  Servicing Standard. Unless otherwise  specified in
       the related Prospectus Supplement, any fee collected by or on behalf of
       the Master Servicer  for entering into an assumption  agreement will be
       retained by or on behalf of the Master Servicer as additional servicing
       compensation. See "Certain Legal Aspects  of the Mortgage Loans and the
       Leases--Due-on-Sale and Due-on-Encumbrance."

       Retained Interest; Servicing Compensation and Payment of Expenses

            The  Prospectus Supplement  for  a  series  of  Certificates  will
       specify whether there will be any Retained Interest in the Assets, and,
       if so, the  initial owner thereof. If so, the Retained Interest will be
       established on a loan-by-loan basis and will be specified on an exhibit
       to the related Agreement. A  "Retained Interest" in an Asset represents
       a  specified portion  of  the interest  payable  thereon. The  Retained
       Interest will be deducted from  mortgagor payments as received and will
       not be part of the related Trust Fund.

            Unless  otherwise specified in  the related Prospectus Supplement,
       the   Master  Servicer's   and  a   Sub-Servicer's  primary   servicing
       compensation with  respect to a  series of Certificates will  come from
       the periodic payment to it of a portion of the interest payment on each
       Asset. Since  any Retained  Interest  and a  Master Servicer's  primary
       compensation are  percentages of the  principal balance of  each Asset,
       such amounts will  decrease in accordance with the  amortization of the
       Assets.  The  Prospectus  Supplement  with  respect   to  a  series  of
       Certificates  evidencing interests in a Trust  Fund that includes Whole
       Loans may provide that, as additional compensation, the Master Servicer
       or the Sub-Servicers  may retain all  or a portion of  assumption fees,
       modification  fees,  late   payment  charges  or   Prepayment  Premiums
       collected from mortgagors and any interest or other income which may be
       earned  on  funds  held  in  the Certificate  Account  or  any  account
       established by a Sub-Servicer pursuant to the Agreement.

            The Master  Servicer may,  to the extent  provided in  the related
       Prospectus  Supplement, pay  from  its  servicing compensation  certain
       expenses incurred in connection with  its servicing and managing of the
       Assets,   including,  without  limitation,  payment  of  the  fees  and
       disbursements  of the Trustee  and independent accountants,  payment of
       expenses  incurred  in  connection with  distributions  and  reports to
       Certificateholders, and payment of any other expenses described in  the
       related  Prospectus  Supplement.  Certain  other  expenses,   including
       certain expenses  relating to  defaults and  liquidations on  the Whole
       Loans  and,  to  the  extent  so provided  in  the  related  Prospectus
       Supplement, interest  thereon at the  rate specified  therein, and  the
       fees of any Special Servicer, may be borne by the Trust Fund.

       Evidence as to Compliance

            Each Agreement  relating to Assets which include  Whole Loans will
       provide that on or before a specified date in each year, beginning with
       the first such date at least six months after the related Cut-off Date,
       a firm  of independent public  accountants will furnish a  statement to
       the Trustee to the effect that, on the basis of the examination by such
       firm  conducted substantially  in compliance  with  either the  Uniform
       Single Attestation Program  for Mortgage Bankers  or the Audit  Program
       for Mortgages serviced  for the Federal Home  Loan Mortgage Corporation
       ("FHLMC"), the  servicing by  or on  behalf of the  Master Servicer  of
       mortgage  loans  under pooling  and servicing  agreements substantially
       similar to each other  (including the related Agreement) was  conducted
       in  compliance  with  the  terms  of such  agreements  except  for  any
       significant exceptions or errors in records that, in the opinion of the
       firm, either  the Audit  Program for Mortgages  serviced for  FHLMC, or
       paragraph  4 of  the Uniform  Single  Attestation Program  for Mortgage
       Bankers, requires  it to report.  In rendering its statement  such firm
       may rely, as  to matters relating to  the direct servicing of  mortgage
       loans  by Sub-Servicers,  upon comparable  statements  for examinations
       conducted   substantially  in  compliance   with  the   Uniform  Single
       Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers or the 

       Audit Program for  Mortgages serviced  for FHLMC  (rendered within  one
       year of such statement) of firms of independent public accountants with
       respect to the related Sub-Servicer.

            Each such Agreement will also provide for delivery to the Trustee,
       on or  before a  specified date in  each year,  of an  annual statement
       signed by two  officers of the Master  Servicer to the effect  that the
       Master  Servicer  has  fulfilled its  obligations  under  the Agreement
       throughout  the preceding calendar year or other specified twelve-month
       period.

            Unless  otherwise provided in  the related  Prospectus Supplement,
       copies of  such annual  accountants' statement  and such statements  of
       officers will be  obtainable by Certificateholders without  charge upon
       written request to the Master Servicer at the address set forth  in the
       related Prospectus Supplement.

       Certain Matters Regarding a Master Servicer and the Depositor

            The Master Servicer,  if any, or a servicer  for substantially all
       the  Whole Loans  under each  Agreement will  be named  in the  related
       Prospectus Supplement.  The entity  serving as Master  Servicer (or  as
       such servicer) may be an affiliate of  the Depositor and may have other
       normal business  relationships with  the Depositor  or the  Depositor's
       affiliates. Reference herein to the  Master Servicer shall be deemed to
       be  to  the servicer  of  substantially  all  of  the Whole  Loans,  if
       applicable.

            Unless otherwise  specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement,
       the related Agreement will provide  that the Master Servicer may resign
       from  its obligations and  duties thereunder only  upon a determination
       that its  duties under  the Agreement are  no longer  permissible under
       applicable law or are in material conflict by  reason of applicable law
       with any other activities carried on by it, the other activities of the
       Master Servicer so causing  such a conflict being of a  type and nature
       carried on by the Master Servicer at the date of the Agreement. No such
       resignation  will become  effective until  the Trustee  or a  successor
       servicer has assumed the Master Servicer's obligations and duties under
       the Agreement.

            Unless  otherwise specified in  the related Prospectus Supplement,
       each Agreement will  further provide that neither  any Master Servicer,
       the Depositor nor any director, officer, employee, or agent of a Master
       Servicer  or the Depositor  will be under any  liability to the related
       Trust  Fund   or  Certificateholders  for  any  action  taken,  or  for
       refraining from the taking of any action, in good faith pursuant to the
       Agreement;  provided,  however,  that neither  a  Master  Servicer, the
       Depositor nor any such person will be protected against any breach of a
       representation, warranty or covenant made in such Agreement, or against
       any  liability specifically imposed  thereby, or against  any liability
       which would otherwise be imposed  by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
       faith or gross  negligence in the performance of  obligations or duties
       thereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties
       thereunder.  Unless  otherwise  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus
       Supplement,  each  Agreement  will  further  provide  that  any  Master
       Servicer, the Depositor and any director, officer, employee or agent of
       a Master Servicer or the  Depositor will be entitled to indemnification
       by the  related Trust Fund and will be  held harmless against any loss,
       liability  or  expense incurred  in  connection with  any  legal action
       relating to the Agreement or  the Certificates; provided, however, that
       such indemnification will not extend  to any loss, liability or expense
       (i) specifically  imposed by such Agreement or  otherwise incidental to
       the performance of obligations and duties thereunder, including, in the
       case of a Master  Servicer, the prosecution of an enforcement action in
       respect of any specific  Whole Loan or Whole Loans (except  as any such
       loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise reimbursable  pursuant to
       such  Agreement); (ii)  incurred in  connection  with any  breach of  a
       representation,  warranty or  covenant made  in  such Agreement;  (iii)
       incurred by reason of misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the
       performance  of  obligations  or  duties thereunder,  or  by  reason of
       reckless disregard  of such  obligations  or duties;  (iv) incurred  in
       connection with any  violation of any state or  federal securities law;
       or  (v) imposed  by any  taxing  authority if  such loss,  liability or
       expense is not  specifically reimbursable pursuant to the  terms of the
       related  Agreement. In  addition,  each  Agreement  will  provide  that
       neither  any  Master Servicer  nor  the  Depositor  will be  under  any
       obligation  to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is
       not incidental to  its respective responsibilities under  the Agreement
       and which in  its opinion may involve  it in any expense  or liability.
       Any  such  Master  Servicer  or  the Depositor  may,  however,  in  its
       discretion undertake  any such  action which it  may deem  necessary or
       desirable with respect to  the Agreement and  the rights and duties  of
       the  parties  thereto  and  the  interests  of  the  Certificateholders
       thereunder. In such event,  the legal expenses and costs of such action
       and  any liability  resulting  therefrom will  be  expenses, costs  and
       liabilities of the  Certificateholders, and the Master Servicer  or the
       Depositor,  as  the case  may  be, will  be  entitled to  be reimbursed
       therefor and to charge the Certificate Account.

            Any person into which the Master  Servicer or the Depositor may be
       merged  or consolidated,  or any  person resulting  from any  merger or
       consolidation to which the Master Servicer or the Depositor is a party,
       or any person succeeding to the business  of the Master Servicer or the
       Depositor,  will  be  the  successor  of the  Master  Servicer  or  the
       Depositor, as the case may be, under the related Agreement.

       Events of Default

            Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement for
       a Trust Fund  that includes Whole  Loans, Events  of Default under  the
       related Agreement will  include (i) any failure by  the Master Servicer
       to distribute or  cause to be distributed to  Certificateholders, or to
       remit  to the  Trustee  for  distribution  to  Certificateholders,  any
       required  payment; (ii)  any failure  by  the Master  Servicer duly  to
       observe or perform  in any material respect any of  its other covenants
       or  obligations  under  the Agreement  which  continues  unremedied for
       thirty days after  written notice of such failure has been given to the
       Master Servicer  by the  Trustee or  the  Depositor, or  to the  Master
       Servicer, the Depositor and the  Trustee by the holders of Certificates
       evidencing not less  than 25% of the Voting Rights; (iii) any breach of
       a  representation or  warranty made  by the  Master Servicer  under the
       Agreement  which  materially  and adversely  affects  the  interests of
       Certificateholders and which continues unremedied for thirty days after
       written notice of such breach has been given to the Master  Servicer by
       the Trustee or the  Depositor, or to the Master Servicer, the Depositor
       and the Trustee by the holders of Certificates evidencing not less than
       25%  of the  Voting  Rights;  and (iv)  certain  events of  insolvency,
       readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets  and liabilities or similar
       proceedings  and certain actions by or on behalf of the Master Servicer
       indicating its insolvency or inability to pay its obligations. Material
       variations to  the foregoing Events  of Default (other than  to shorten
       cure periods or eliminate notice requirements) will be specified in the
       related  Prospectus  Supplement.  Unless  otherwise  specified  in  the
       related Prospectus Supplement,  the Trustee shall,  not later than  the
       later of  60 days after the  occurrence of any  event which constitutes
       or, with notice or lapse of time or  both, would constitute an Event of
       Default  and five  days after  certain officers  of the  Trustee become
       aware of  the occurrence  of such  an event,  transmit by  mail to  the
       Depositor and all Certificateholders of the applicable series notice of
       such occurrence, unless such default shall have been cured or waived.

       Rights Upon Event of Default

            So  long  as  an  Event  of Default  under  an  Agreement  remains
       unremedied, the Depositor  or the Trustee may, and  at the direction of
       holders  of Certificates  evidencing not  less than  51% of  the Voting
       Rights, the Trustee shall, terminate  all of the rights and obligations
       of the  Master Servicer under the Agreement and  in and to the Mortgage
       Loans (other  than  as  a Certificateholder  or  as the  owner  of  any
       Retained Interest),  whereupon the Trustee  will succeed to all  of the
       responsibilities, duties and  liabilities of the Master  Servicer under
       the Agreement (except  that if the  Trustee is  prohibited by law  from
       obligating itself to make advances regarding delinquent mortgage loans,
       or if the related Prospectus  Supplement so specifies, then the Trustee
       will not be  obligated to make such  advances) and will be  entitled to
       similar  compensation arrangements. Unless  otherwise specified  in the
       related  Prospectus  Supplement,  in  the  event  that  the Trustee  is
       unwilling or unable so to act, it may or, at the written request of the
       holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the  Voting Rights,
       it shall appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the
       appointment of, a loan servicing  institution acceptable to the  Rating
       Agency with  a net worth  at the time  of such appointment  of at least
       $15,000,000  to act  as  successor  to the  Master  Servicer under  the
       Agreement. Pending such appointment, the Trustee is obligated to act in
       such capacity. The Trustee  and any such  successor may agree upon  the
       servicing  compensation to  be paid, which  in no event  may be greater
       than  the  compensation  payable  to  the  Master  Servicer  under  the
       Agreement.

            Unless  otherwise described in  the related Prospectus Supplement,
       the holders of Certificates representing at least 66 2/3% of the Voting
       Rights allocated  to the respective classes of Certificates affected by
       any Event  of Default will be entitled to  waive such Event of Default;
       provided,  however, that  an Event  of Default  involving a  failure to
       distribute a required payment to Certificateholders described in clause
       (i)  under  "Events  of Default"  may  be  waived only  by  all  of the
       Certificateholders. Upon any  such waiver of an Event  of Default, such
       Event of  Default shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been
       remedied for every purpose under the Agreement.

            No Certificateholder  will have the  right under any  Agreement to
       institute  any proceeding  with  respect  thereto  unless  such  holder
       previously  has given  to the  Trustee  written notice  of default  and
       unless the holders of Certificates evidencing  not less than 25% of the
       Voting Rights have  made written request upon the  Trustee to institute
       such proceeding in its own name as Trustee thereunder  and have offered
       to the Trustee reasonable indemnity, and the Trustee for sixty days has
       neglected  or refused to  institute any  such proceeding.  The Trustee,
       however, is under no obligation to exercise any of the trusts or powers
       vested in it by any Agreement  or to make any investigation of  matters
       arising thereunder  or to institute,  conduct or defend  any litigation
       thereunder or in relation thereto at the request, order or direction of
       any of  the holders of  Certificates covered by such  Agreement, unless
       such Certificateholders have offered to the Trustee reasonable security
       or indemnity against  the costs, expenses and liabilities  which may be
       incurred therein or thereby.

       Amendment

            Each Agreement may  be amended by the parties  thereto without the
       consent of any of the holders of Certificates covered by the Agreement,
       (i)  to cure any ambiguity,  (ii) to correct,  modify or supplement any
       provision therein  which may be  inconsistent with any  other provision
       therein, (iii) to make any other  provisions with respect to matters or
       questions arising  under the Agreement which are  not inconsistent with
       the provisions thereof, or (iv) to comply with any requirements imposed
       by the Code; provided that such amendment (other than an amendment  for
       the purpose specified in clause  (iv) above) will not (as  evidenced by
       an opinion of counsel  to such effect) adversely affect in any material
       respect  the interests  of any  holder of  Certificates covered  by the
       Agreement.  Unless  otherwise  specified  in  the   related  Prospectus
       Supplement, each  Agreement may also  be amended by the  Depositor, the
       Master  Servicer, if  any, and  the Trustee,  with the  consent of  the
       holders of Certificates affected thereby  evidencing not less than  51%
       of the Voting  Rights, for any purpose; provided,  however, that unless
       otherwise  specified  in  the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  no such
       amendment may  (i) reduce  in any  manner the  amount of  or delay  the
       timing of,  payments received or  advanced on Mortgage Loans  which are
       required to  be distributed on  any Certificate without the  consent of
       the holder of  such Certificate, (ii) adversely affect  in any material
       respect the interests of the holders of  any class of Certificates in a
       manner other  than as  described in  (i),  without the  consent of  the
       holders  of  all  Certificates  of  such  class  or  (iii)  modify  the
       provisions of such  Agreement described in  this paragraph without  the
       consent of  the holders of  all Certificates covered by  such Agreement
       then outstanding. However,  with respect to any  series of Certificates
       as to  which a  REMIC election  is to  be  made, the  Trustee will  not
       consent to  any amendment of the  Agreement unless it  shall first have
       received  an opinion of counsel to the  effect that such amendment will
       not  result in the  imposition of a  tax on  the related Trust  Fund or
       cause the related Trust Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC  at any time
       that the related Certificates are outstanding.

       The Trustee

            The  Trustee under  each Agreement  will be  named in  the related
       Prospectus  Supplement.   The   commercial   bank,   national   banking
       association,  banking corporation or  trust company serving  as Trustee
       may have a  banking relationship with the Depositor  and its affiliates
       and with any Master Servicer and its affiliates.

       Duties of the Trustee

            The Trustee  will make  no representations as  to the  validity or
       sufficiency of any Agreement, the  Certificates or any Asset or related
       document and  is not accountable  for the use  or application by  or on
       behalf of any Master Servicer of any funds paid to the  Master Servicer
       or its designee or any Special Servicer in respect  of the Certificates
       or  the Assets,  or deposited  into or  withdrawn from  the Certificate
       Account or any other account by or on behalf of the Master Servicer  or
       any  Special  Servicer. If  no Event  of  Default has  occurred  and is
       continuing,  the  Trustee  is required  to  perform  only  those duties
       specifically  required  under  the  related  Agreement.  However,  upon
       receipt  of  the  various certificates,  reports  or  other instruments
       required to be furnished to it, the Trustee is required to examine such
       documents and to determine whether  they conform to the requirements of
       the Agreement.

       Certain Matters Regarding the Trustee

            Unless otherwise  specified in the related  Prospectus Supplement,
       the Trustee and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee
       shall be entitled to indemnification out of the Certificate Account for
       any  loss,  liability  or  expense  (including  costs  and expenses  of
       litigation,  and of investigation, counsel fees, damages, judgments and
       amounts  paid in settlement) incurred  in connection with the Trustee's
       (i) enforcing its rights and remedies and protecting the interests, and
       enforcing the rights and remedies, of the Certificateholders during the
       continuance of an  Event of Default, (ii) defending  or prosecuting any
       legal  action  in  respect  of  the  related  Agreement  or  series  of
       Certificates, (iii) being  the mortgagee of record with  respect to the
       Mortgage Loans in a Trust Fund and  the owner of record with respect to
       any Mortgaged Property  acquired in respect thereof for  the benefit of
       Certificateholders,  or (iv) acting  or refraining from  acting in good
       faith  at  the  direction of  the  holders  of  the related  series  of
       Certificates entitled to  not less than 25% (or  such higher percentage
       as is specified in the related Agreement with respect to any particular
       matter) of the  Voting Rights for such series;  provided, however, that
       such indemnification will not extend  to any loss, liability or expense
       that constitutes  a specific liability  of the Trustee pursuant  to the
       related Agreement,  or to  any loss, liability  or expense  incurred by
       reason  of willful misfeasance, bad faith or  negligence on the part of
       the   Trustee  in  the  performance  of   its  obligations  and  duties
       thereunder, or by reason of  its reckless disregard of such obligations
       or  duties,  or as  may  arise from  a  breach  of any  representation,
       warranty or covenant of the Trustee made therein.

       Resignation and Removal of the Trustee

            The Trustee may at any time resign from its obligations and duties
       under an Agreement  by giving written notice thereof  to the Depositor,
       the Master Servicer, if any, and all Certificateholders. Upon receiving
       such  notice of  resignation,  the Depositor  is  required promptly  to
       appoint a successor trustee acceptable  to the Master Servicer, if any.
       If  no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted
       appointment  within  30  days  after  the  giving  of  such  notice  of
       resignation, the resigning Trustee may  petition any court of competent
       jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.

            If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible  to continue
       as such under  the related  Agreement, or  if at any  time the  Trustee
       shall  become incapable  of acting,  or shall  be adjudged  bankrupt or
       insolvent,  or a receiver  of the Trustee  or of its  property shall be
       appointed,  or any public  officer shall take charge  or control of the
       Trustee   or  of   its  property   or  affairs   for  the   purpose  of
       rehabilitation,  conservation  or liquidation,  then the  Depositor may
       remove the  Trustee and appoint  a successor trustee acceptable  to the
       Master  Servicer, if  any. Holders  of the  Certificates of  any series
       entitled to  at least 51% of the  Voting Rights for such  series may at
       any  time remove  the Trustee  without  cause and  appoint a  successor
       trustee.

            Any resignation  or removal  of the Trustee  and appointment  of a
       successor  trustee shall  not  become  effective  until  acceptance  of
       appointment by the successor trustee.

                            DESCRIPTION OF CREDIT SUPPORT

       General

            For  any series of  Certificates, Credit  Support may  be provided
       with respect  to one  or more classes  thereof or  the related  Assets.
       Credit Support may be in the  form of the subordination of one or  more
       classes  of  Certificates,  letters  of  credit,  insurance   policies,
       guarantees, the establishment  of one or more reserve  funds or another
       method   of  Credit  Support   described  in  the   related  Prospectus
       Supplement, or any combination of the foregoing. If so provided  in the
       related Prospectus  Supplement,  any  form of  Credit  Support  may  be
       structured so as to be drawn upon by more than one series to the extent
       described therein.

            Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement for
       a  series  of  Certificates,  the   Credit  Support  will  not  provide
       protection against all  risks of loss and will  not guarantee repayment
       of  the entire  Certificate  Balance of  the Certificates  and interest
       thereon. If losses  or shortfalls occur that exceed  the amount covered
       by  Credit  Support  or  that   are  not  covered  by  Credit  Support,
       Certificateholders  will bear  their allocable  share of  deficiencies.
       Moreover, if a  form of Credit Support  covers more than one  series of
       Certificates  (each,  a  "Covered   Trust"),  holders  of  Certificates
       evidencing  interests in any of such  Covered Trusts will be subject to
       the risk that  such Credit Support will  be exhausted by the  claims of
       other Covered Trusts prior to  such Covered Trust receiving any  of its
       intended share of such coverage.

            If Credit Support is provided with respect to  one or more classes
       of  Certificates  of a  series,  or  the  related Assets,  the  related
       Prospectus Supplement will include a  description of (a) the nature and
       amount of  coverage under  such Credit Support,  (b) any  conditions to
       payment thereunder not  otherwise described herein, (c)  the conditions
       (if any) under which  the amount of coverage under such  Credit Support
       may be reduced and under which such Credit Support may be terminated or
       replaced  and  (d)  the material  provisions  relating  to such  Credit
       Support. Additionally, the related Prospectus Supplement will set forth
       certain information with respect to the obligor under any instrument of
       Credit  Support, including  (i) a  brief description  of  its principal
       business activities,  (ii) its  principal place  of business,  place of
       incorporation and  the  jurisdiction under  which  it is  chartered  or
       licensed  to  do  business,  (iii)  if  applicable,  the  identity   of
       regulatory agencies that exercise primary jurisdiction over the conduct
       of its  business and (iv)  its total  assets, and its  stockholders' or
       policyholders' surplus, if applicable, as  of the date specified in the
       Prospectus Supplement. See "Risk Factors--Credit Support Limitations."

       Subordinate Certificates

            If so specified in the  related Prospectus Supplement, one or more
       classes of Certificates of a series may be Subordinate Certificates. To
       the extent specified in  the related Prospectus Supplement, the  rights
       of the holders of Subordinate  Certificates to receive distributions of
       principal and interest from the Certificate Account on any Distribution
       Date  will be  subordinated to  such rights  of the  holders of  Senior
       Certificates.  If so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
       subordination of a  class may apply  only in  the event of  (or may  be
       limited  to)  certain  types  of  losses  or  shortfalls.  The  related
       Prospectus  Supplement will set forth information concerning the amount
       of subordination of a class or classes of Subordinate 
       Certificates in a series, the circumstances in which such subordination
       will be  applicable and  the manner,  if any,  in which  the amount  of
       subordination will be effected.

       Cross-Support Provisions

            If the Assets for a series are divided into  separate groups, each
       supporting a  separate class  or classes of  Certificates of  a series,
       credit  support may be  provided by cross-support  provisions requiring
       that  distributions be made on Senior Certificates evidencing interests
       in one group  of Mortgage Assets prior to  distributions on Subordinate
       Certificates  evidencing interests  in a  different  group of  Mortgage
       Assets within  the Trust Fund.  The Prospectus Supplement for  a series
       that includes a  cross-support provision will  describe the manner  and
       conditions for applying such provisions.

       Insurance or Guarantees with Respect to the Whole Loans

            If  so provided  in  the  Prospectus Supplement  for  a series  of
       Certificates, the Whole Loans in the related Trust Fund will be covered
       for various default  risks by insurance policies or  guarantees. A copy
       of  any such material  instrument for a  series will be  filed with the
       Commission as an exhibit  to a Current Report on  Form 8-K to be  filed
       within 15 days of issuance of the Certificates of the related series.

       Letter of Credit

            If  so provided  in  the  Prospectus Supplement  for  a series  of
       Certificates,  deficiencies   in  amounts  otherwise  payable  on  such
       Certificates or certain classes  thereof will be covered by one or more
       letters of credit, issued by  a bank or financial institution specified
       in  such Prospectus  Supplement (the  "L/C  Bank"). Under  a letter  of
       credit, the L/C Bank will be obligated  to honor draws thereunder in an
       aggregate fixed dollar amount, net of unreimbursed payments thereunder,
       generally  equal to a  percentage specified  in the  related Prospectus
       Supplement of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Assets on
       the  related  Cut-off  Date or  of  the  initial  aggregate Certificate
       Balance of one or more classes of Certificates. If so specified  in the
       related Prospectus Supplement, the letter of credit may permit draws in
       the event  of only certain types  of losses and  shortfalls. The amount
       available under the letter of credit will, in all cases, be  reduced to
       the extent of the unreimbursed payments thereunder and may otherwise be
       reduced   as  described  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement.  The
       obligations of the L/C Bank under the letter of credit for  each series
       of Certificates will expire at the earlier of the date specified in the
       related Prospectus Supplement  or the termination of the  Trust Fund. A
       copy of any such  letter of credit for a series will  be filed with the
       Commission as an exhibit  to a Current Report  on Form 8-K to  be filed
       within 15 days of issuance of the Certificates of the related series.

       Insurance Policies and Surety Bonds

            If  so provided  in  the  Prospectus Supplement  for  a series  of
       Certificates,  deficiencies  in  amounts   otherwise  payable  on  such
       Certificates or  certain classes thereof  will be covered  by insurance
       policies  and/or  surety  bonds  provided  by  one  or  more  insurance
       companies or sureties. Such instruments  may cover, with respect to one
       or  more  classes  of  Certificates  of  the  related   series,  timely
       distributions of interest and/or full distributions of principal on the
       basis  of  a  schedule  of  principal distributions  set  forth  in  or
       determined   in  the  manner   specified  in  the   related  Prospectus
       Supplement. A copy  of any such instrument  for a series will  be filed
       with the Commission as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K to be
       filed  with  the   Commission  within  15  days  of   issuance  of  the
       Certificates of the related series.

       Reserve Funds

            If  so provided  in  the  Prospectus Supplement  for  a series  of
       Certificates,  deficiencies  in  amounts  otherwise   payable  on  such
       Certificates or certain classes thereof will be covered by  one or more
       reserve funds in which cash, a letter of credit, Permitted Investments,
       a demand  note or  a  combination thereof  will  be deposited,  in  the
       amounts so specified  in such Prospectus Supplement.  The reserve funds
       for a  series may  also be  funded over  time by  depositing therein  a
       specified amount of the distributions received on the related Assets as
       specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.

            Amounts on deposit in any reserve fund for a series, together with
       the  reinvestment income  thereon,  if  any, will  be  applied for  the
       purposes, in the  manner, and to  the extent  specified in the  related
       Prospectus Supplement. A  reserve fund may be provided  to increase the
       likelihood of timely distributions of  principal of and interest on the
       Certificates. If  so specified  in the  related Prospectus  Supplement,
       reserve funds may be established to provide limited  protection against
       only certain types 
       of losses and shortfalls. Following each Distribution Date amounts in a
       reserve fund in  excess of any amount required to be maintained therein
       may be released from the reserve  fund under the conditions and to  the
       extent specified in  the related Prospectus Supplement and  will not be
       available for further application to the Certificates.

            Moneys  deposited  in  any  Reserve  Funds  will  be  invested  in
       Permitted Investments,  except as  otherwise specified  in the  related
       Prospectus  Supplement.  Unless  otherwise  specified  in  the  related
       Prospectus  Supplement, any reinvestment income or other gain from such
       investments  will be  credited to  the  related Reserve  Fund for  such
       series, and any loss resulting from such investments will be charged to
       such Reserve Fund. However, such income  may be payable to any  related
       Master Servicer or another service provider as additional compensation.
       The Reserve  Fund, if any, for a series will not be a part of the Trust
       Fund unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.

            Additional information  concerning any  Reserve Fund  will be  set
       forth  in  the  related Prospectus  Supplement,  including  the initial
       balance of such Reserve  Fund, the balance required to be maintained in
       the  Reserve Fund,  the  manner  in which  such  required balance  will
       decrease  over time,  the  manner  of funding  such  Reserve Fund,  the
       purposes  for which funds  in the Reserve  Fund may be  applied to make
       distributions to Certificateholders and use of investment earnings from
       the Reserve Fund, if any.

       Credit Support with respect to MBS

            If  so provided  in  the  Prospectus Supplement  for  a series  of
       Certificates, the  MBS in  the related Trust  Fund and/or  the Mortgage
       Loans underlying such MBS may be covered by one or more of the types of
       Credit Support described herein. The related Prospectus Supplement will
       specify  as  to  each  such  form of  Credit  Support  the  information
       indicated above with respect thereto, to the extent such information is
       material and available.

              CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS AND THE LEASES

            The  following discussion  contains  general summaries  of certain
       legal   aspects  of  loans   secured  by  commercial   and  multifamily
       residential properties that are general  in nature. Because such  legal
       aspects are  governed by  applicable state law  (which laws  may differ
       substantially),  the summaries  do not  purport to  be complete  nor to
       reflect the laws of any particular state, nor to encompass the  laws of
       all states in  which the security  for the Mortgage Loans  is situated.
       The  summaries are  qualified in  their  entirety by  reference to  the
       applicable federal  and state  laws governing the  Mortgage Loans.  See
       "Description of the Trust Funds--Assets."

       General

            All of the  Mortgage Loans are loans  evidenced by a note  or bond
       and  secured  by  instruments  granting a  security  interest  in  real
       property  which may  be mortgages,  deeds of  trust, security  deeds or
       deeds to secure debt, depending upon the prevailing practice and law in
       the state in which the  Mortgaged Property is located. Mortgages, deeds
       of trust and deeds  to secure debt are herein  collectively referred to
       as "mortgages." Any of the foregoing  types of mortgages will create  a
       lien upon,  or grant  a title  interest in,  the subject  property, the
       priority of which will  depend on the terms of the  particular security
       instrument,  as well  as separate,  recorded, contractual  arrangements
       with others holding interests in  the mortgaged property, the knowledge
       of the parties to  such instrument as well as the  order of recordation
       of the instrument in the appropriate public recording  office. However,
       recording  does  not  generally  establish  priority over  governmental
       claims for real estate taxes  and assessments and other charges imposed
       under governmental police powers.

       Types of Mortgage Instruments

            A  mortgage  either  creates  a  lien  against  or  constitutes  a
       conveyance  of  real  property between  two  parties--a  mortgagor (the
       borrower and usually the owner of the subject property) and a mortgagee
       (the lender). In contrast, a deed of trust is a three-party instrument,
       among a trustor (the equivalent of a mortgagor), a trustee to  whom the
       mortgaged  property is  conveyed, and  a beneficiary  (the  lender) for
       whose  benefit the  conveyance is  made.  As used  in this  Prospectus,
       unless the context otherwise requires, "mortgagor" includes the trustor
       under a deed of trust and a grantor under a security deed  or a deed to
       secure debt. Under a deed of trust,  the mortgagor grants the property,
       irrevocably until the debt is paid, in trust, generally with a power of
       sale as security for the indebtedness evidenced by the related note.  A
       deed to secure debt typically has  two parties. By executing a deed  to
       secure  debt,  the grantor  conveys  title  to,  as opposed  to  merely
       creating a  lien upon, the subject  property to the grantee  until such
       time as the underlying debt is  repaid, generally with a power of  sale
       as security  for  the indebtedness  evidenced by  the related  mortgage
       note. In case  the mortgagor under  a mortgage is  a land trust,  there
       would be 
       an additional party  because legal title to  the property is held  by a
       land  trustee under  a  land trust  agreement  for the  benefit of  the
       mortgagor. At  origination of a  mortgage loan involving a  land trust,
       the mortgagor executes  a separate undertaking to make  payments on the
       mortgage   note.  The  mortgagee's  authority  under  a  mortgage,  the
       trustee's authority under  a deed of trust and  the grantee's authority
       under a deed to  secure debt are governed by the  express provisions of
       the mortgage,  the  law of  the state  in which  the  real property  is
       located,  certain  federal  laws  (including, without  limitation,  the
       Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940) and, in some cases, in
       deed of trust transactions, the directions of the beneficiary.

       Interest in Real Property

            The real property  covered by a mortgage, deed  of trust, security
       deed or deed to  secure debt is most  often the fee estate in  land and
       improvements.  However, such an instrument may encumber other interests
       in real  property such as  a tenant's  interest in a  lease of  land or
       improvements, or both, and the  leasehold estate created by such lease.
       An  instrument covering an interest in real property other than the fee
       estate  requires special  provisions in  the  instrument creating  such
       interest or in  the mortgage, deed of  trust, security deed or  deed to
       secure  debt, to  protect  the mortgagee  against  termination of  such
       interest  before the mortgage, deed of  trust, security deed or deed to
       secure  debt  is paid.  Unless  otherwise specified  in  the Prospectus
       Supplement,  the Depositor  or  the  Asset  Seller  will  make  certain
       representations and  warranties in  the Agreement  with respect  to the
       Mortgage Loans which are secured by  an interest in a leasehold estate.
       Such representation and warranties will  be set forth in the Prospectus
       Supplement if applicable.

       Leases and Rents

            Mortgages that encumber income-producing property often contain an
       assignment of rents and leases, pursuant to which the mortgagor assigns
       its right,  title and  interest as landlord  under each  lease and  the
       income derived therefrom  to the lender, while the  mortgagor retains a
       revocable license  to collect  the rents  for so  long as  there is  no
       default.  Under such assignments,  the mortgagor typically  assigns its
       right, title  and interest as  lessor under each  lease and the  income
       derived therefrom  to  the  mortgagee, while  retaining  a  license  to
       collect the rents for so long as there is no default under the mortgage
       loan documentation. The  manner of perfecting the  mortgagee's interest
       in rents may depend on  whether the mortgagor's assignment was absolute
       or one granted as  security for the  loan. Failure to properly  perfect
       the mortgagee's interest in rents may result in the loss of substantial
       pool of funds, which could otherwise serve as a source of repayment for
       such loan.  If the mortgagor  defaults, the license terminates  and the
       lender is entitled to collect the rents. Local law may require that the
       lender take possession  of the property and/or obtain a court-appointed
       receiver before becoming entitled to collect the rents. In most states,
       hotel and motel room revenues are considered  accounts receivable under
       the UCC; generally these revenues are either assigned by the mortgagor,
       which remains  entitled to collect  such revenues absent a  default, or
       pledged by  the mortgagor, as  security for the  loan. In  general, the
       lender must file financing statements  in order to perfect its security
       interest  in  the  revenues  and  must  file  continuation  statements,
       generally every  five years,  to maintain perfection  of such  security
       interest. Even  if the lender's  security interest in room  revenues is
       perfected  under the  UCC, the  lender  will generally  be required  to
       commence a foreclosure or otherwise  take possession of the property in
       order to collect the room revenues after a default.

            Even after  a foreclosure,  the potential  rent payments  from the
       property may be less than the periodic payments that had been due under
       the  mortgage. For  instance, the  net income  that would  otherwise be
       generated from the property may be less than the amount that would have
       been needed to service the mortgage debt  if the leases on the property
       are at below-market  rents, or as the result  of excessive maintenance,
       repair or other obligations which a lender succeeds to as landlord.

            Lenders  that actually take  possession of the  property, however,
       may incur potentially substantial risks  attendant to being a mortgagee
       in  possession. Such risks include liability for environmental clean-up
       costs   and   other   risks  inherent   in   property   ownership.  See
       "Environmental Legislation" below.

       Personalty

            Certain types of Mortgaged Properties, such as hotels, motels  and
       industrial plants,  are likely  to derive a  significant part  of their
       value from personal property which does not constitute "fixtures" under
       applicable state real property law and, hence, would not be  subject to
       the  lien of a mortgage. Such property is generally pledged or assigned
       as  security to  the lender  under  the UCC.  In order  to  perfect its
       security interest therein, the lender generally must file UCC financing
       statements and, to maintain perfection  of such security interest, file
       continuation statements generally every five years.

       Foreclosure

        General

            Foreclosure  is a  legal procedure  that allows  the mortgagee  to
       recover its mortgage  debt by enforcing its rights  and available legal
       remedies under  the mortgage. If  the mortgagor defaults in  payment or
       performance  of  its  obligations  under  the  note  or  mortgage,  the
       mortgagee has  the right to  institute foreclosure proceedings  to sell
       the mortgaged property at public auction to satisfy the indebtedness.

            Foreclosure  procedures with  respect  to  the  enforcement  of  a
       mortgage vary from state to state. Two primary methods of foreclosing a
       mortgage are judicial foreclosure and non-judicial foreclosure pursuant
       to  a  power of  sale  granted in  the mortgage  instrument.  There are
       several other foreclosure procedures available in some states that  are
       either  infrequently  used   or  available  only  in   certain  limited
       circumstances, such as strict foreclosure.

        Judicial Foreclosure

            A  judicial foreclosure proceeding is  conducted in a court having
       jurisdiction  over the  mortgaged property.  Generally,  the action  is
       initiated by the service of legal  pleadings upon all parties having  a
       subordinate interest of record in the  real property and all parties in
       possession of  the property, under leases or otherwise, whose interests
       are  subordinate  to   the  mortgage.  Delays  in   completion  of  the
       foreclosure  may  occasionally  result  from  difficulties  in locating
       defendants.  When the  lender's  right to  foreclose is  contested, the
       legal  proceedings can be time-consuming. Upon successful completion of
       a  judicial  foreclosure  proceeding,  the  court  generally  issues  a
       judgment  of foreclosure  and appoints  a referee  or other  officer to
       conduct a public sale of the mortgaged property, the proceeds  of which
       are used  to satisfy the  judgment. Such sales  are made in  accordance
       with procedures that vary from state to state.

        Equitable Limitations on Enforceability of Certain Provisions

            United States  courts have traditionally imposed general equitable
       principles to limit the remedies available to a mortgagee in connection
       with  foreclosure. These equitable principles are generally designed to
       relieve the  mortgagor from the  legal effect of mortgage  defaults, to
       the extent that such effect is perceived as harsh or unfair. Relying on
       such principles, a court  may alter the specific terms of a loan to the
       extent it considers necessary to  prevent or remedy an injustice, undue
       oppression  or  overreaching, or  may require  the lender  to undertake
       affirmative  and  expensive  actions  to  determine  the  cause of  the
       mortgagor's default and the likelihood  that the mortgagor will be able
       to reinstate  the loan.  In some cases,  courts have  substituted their
       judgment  for the  lender's and  have required  that lenders  reinstate
       loans  or recast payment  schedules in order  to accommodate mortgagors
       who  are  suffering from  a  temporary financial  disability.  In other
       cases, courts have  limited the right of the lender to foreclose if the
       default under the mortgage is  not monetary, e.g., the mortgagor failed
       to maintain the mortgaged property adequately or the mortgagor executed
       a  junior mortgage on the mortgaged property. The exercise by the court
       of its  equity powers  will depend on  the individual  circumstances of
       each case  presented to it. Finally,  some courts have been  faced with
       the  issue  of  whether  federal  or  state  constitutional  provisions
       reflecting due  process  concerns for  adequate notice  require that  a
       mortgagor receive notice in addition to  statutorily-prescribed minimum
       notice. For the  most part, these cases have  upheld the reasonableness
       of the  notice provisions  or have  found that  a public  sale under  a
       mortgage  providing for  a power  of sale  does not  involve sufficient
       state action to afford constitutional protections to the mortgagor.

            A foreclosure action is subject to most of the delays and expenses
       of  other  lawsuits  if  defenses   are  raised  or  counterclaims  are
       interposed,  and sometimes require several years to complete. Moreover,
       as discussed  below, a non-collusive,  regularly conducted  foreclosure
       sale may  be challenged as  a fraudulent conveyance, regardless  of the
       parties' intent, if a court determines that the sale was for  less than
       fair  consideration  and such  sale  occurred while  the  mortgagor was
       insolvent (or the mortgagor  was rendered insolvent as a result of such
       sale) and within  one year (or within the state  statute of limitations
       if the trustee  in bankruptcy elects to proceed  under state fraudulent
       conveyance law) of the filing of bankruptcy.

        Non-Judicial Foreclosure/Power of Sale

            Foreclosure  of a  deed of  trust is  generally accomplished  by a
       non-judicial trustee's  sale pursuant to  the power of sale  granted in
       the deed  of trust. A power of  sale is typically granted in  a deed of
       trust.  It  may  also  be  contained in  any  other  type  of  mortgage
       instrument.  A power of  sale allows a  non-judicial public  sale to be
       conducted  generally following a request from the beneficiary/lender to
       the  trustee to  sell the  property upon any  default by  the mortgagor
       under the terms of the mortgage 
       note or the  mortgage instrument and after  notice of sale is  given in
       accordance  with the  terms  of  the mortgage  instrument,  as well  as
       applicable state law.  In some states, prior to  such sale, the trustee
       under a  deed of trust  must record a notice  of default and  notice of
       sale and send a  copy to the mortgagor and  to any other party who  has
       recorded  a request for  a copy of  a notice  of default and  notice of
       sale.  In addition, in  some states the trustee  must provide notice to
       any  other party  having an interest  of record  in the  real property,
       including  junior lienholders.  A notice  of sale must  be posted  in a
       public place and, in most states,  published for a specified period  of
       time in one or more newspapers.  The mortgagor or junior lienholder may
       then have  the right,  during a reinstatement  period required  in some
       states,  to cure  the  default by  paying the  entire actual  amount in
       arrears  (without acceleration) plus the expenses incurred in enforcing
       the obligation. In other states, the mortgagor or the junior lienholder
       is not  provided a period to reinstate the loan, but has only the right
       to pay off the entire debt  to prevent the foreclosure sale. Generally,
       the  procedure for  public sale,  the parties  entitled to  notice, the
       method of giving notice and the applicable time periods are governed by
       state law and  vary among the states.  Foreclosure of a deed  to secure
       debt is also  generally accomplished by a non-judicial  sale similar to
       that required by a deed of trust,  except that the lender or its agent,
       rather than a  trustee, is typically empowered  to perform the sale  in
       accordance with  the terms of  the deed to  secure debt  and applicable
       law.

        Public Sale

            A third party may be unwilling to purchase a mortgaged property at
       a public sale  because of the  difficulty in determining  the value  of
       such  property  at  the time  of  sale,  due  to, among  other  things,
       redemption rights  which  may exist  and  the possibility  of  physical
       deterioration of the  property during the foreclosure  proceedings. For
       these reasons, it  is common for the  lender to purchase the  mortgaged
       property for an  amount equal to or  less than the underlying  debt and
       accrued  and  unpaid   interest  plus  the  expenses   of  foreclosure.
       Generally,  state law  controls  the amount  of  foreclosure costs  and
       expenses which may be recovered by a lender. Thereafter, subject to the
       mortgagor's  right in  some states  to  remain in  possession during  a
       redemption period, if  applicable, the lender will become  the owner of
       the property and have both the benefits and burdens of ownership of the
       mortgaged property. For example, the lender will have the obligation to
       pay debt service on any senior mortgages, to pay taxes, obtain casualty
       insurance and to make such repairs at its own expense as  are necessary
       to  render the  property  suitable  for  sale. Frequently,  the  lender
       employs  a third  party management  company to  manage and  operate the
       property.  The  costs of  operating  and  maintaining a  commercial  or
       multifamily residential property may be significant  and may be greater
       than the income derived from that property. The costs of management and
       operation  of  those  mortgaged properties  which  are  hotels, motels,
       restaurants,   nursing  or  convalescent  homes  or  hospitals  may  be
       particularly  significant because of the expertise, knowledge and, with
       respect  to  nursing  or convalescent  homes  or  hospitals, regulatory
       compliance,  required  to  run  such operations  and  the  effect which
       foreclosure and a change in ownership may  have on the public's and the
       industry's (including franchisors')  perception of the quality  of such
       operations.  The lender  will commonly  obtain the  services of  a real
       estate broker  and pay the  broker's commission in connection  with the
       sale of  the property. Depending  upon market conditions,  the ultimate
       proceeds of  the  sale of  the  property  may not  equal  the  lender's
       investment   in  the  property.  Moreover,  a  lender  commonly  incurs
       substantial  legal  fees  and  court costs  in  acquiring  a  mortgaged
       property through  contested foreclosure and/or  bankruptcy proceedings.
       Furthermore,  a few states require that any environmental contamination
       at certain types of properties be  cleaned up before a property may  be
       resold. In addition, a lender may be responsible under federal or state
       law  for  the  cost  of  cleaning  up  a  mortgaged  property  that  is
       environmentally   contaminated.   See    "Environmental   Legislation."
       Generally state  law controls  the amount of  foreclosure expenses  and
       costs, including attorneys' fees, that may be recovered by a lender.

            A junior mortgagee may not  foreclose on the property securing the
       junior mortgage unless  it forecloses subject  to senior mortgages  and
       any other prior liens, in which case it may be obliged to make payments
       on the senior mortgages to avoid their foreclosure. In addition, in the
       event  that  the  foreclosure   of  a  junior  mortgage   triggers  the
       enforcement  of a "due-on-sale" clause contained  in a senior mortgage,
       the junior  mortgagee may  be required to  pay the  full amount  of the
       senior mortgage to  avoid its foreclosure. Accordingly, with respect to
       those Mortgage Loans, if  any, that are junior  mortgage loans, if  the
       lender purchases the property the lender's title will be subject to all
       senior mortgages, prior liens and certain governmental liens.

            The  proceeds received by the referee or trustee from the sale are
       applied first  to the  costs, fees  and expenses  of sale  and then  in
       satisfaction of  the indebtedness secured  by the mortgage  under which
       the  sale was conducted.  Any proceeds remaining  after satisfaction of
       senior mortgage  debt are  generally payable to  the holders  of junior
       mortgages  and other  liens  and  claims in  order  of their  priority,
       whether or not the mortgagor is in default. Any additional proceeds are
       generally payable to the  mortgagor. The payment of the proceeds to the
       holders of junior mortgages may occur  in the foreclosure action of the
       senior mortgage or a subsequent ancillary proceeding or may require the
       institution of separate legal proceedings by such holders.

        REO Properties

            If title to  any Mortgaged Property is acquired  by the Trustee on
       behalf of  the Certificateholders, the  Master Servicer or  any related
       Sub-servicer or the  Special Servicer, on behalf of  such holders, will
       be required to  sell the Mortgaged Property  prior to the close  of the
       third calendar year following the year of acquisition of such Mortgaged
       Property by  the Trust  Fund, unless (i)  the Internal  Revenue Service
       grants  an extension of time to sell such property (an "REO Extension")
       or (ii) it obtains an opinion  of counsel generally to the effect  that
       the holding of the property beyond the close of the third calendar year
       after its acquisition will not result in the imposition of a tax on the
       Trust  Fund or  cause  any REMIC  created pursuant  to the  Pooling and
       Servicing  Agreement to  fail to  qualify  as a  REMIC under  the Code.
       Subject  to  the  foregoing,   the  Master  Servicer  or   any  related
       Sub-servicer  or the  Special  Servicer will  generally be  required to
       solicit bids for any Mortgaged Property so acquired in such a manner as
       will  be reasonably likely to  realize a fair  price for such property.
       The Master Servicer or any related Sub-servicer or the Special Servicer
       may  retain an  independent contractor  to operate  and manage  any REO
       Property; however, the retention of an independent  contractor will not
       relieve the Master Servicer or  any related Sub-servicer or the Special
       Servicer of its obligations with respect to such REO Property.

            In general, the Master Servicer or any related Sub-servicer or the
       Special Servicer  or an independent  contractor employed by  the Master
       Servicer or  any related  Sub-servicer or the  Special Servicer  at the
       expense of the Trust  Fund will be obligated to operate  and manage any
       Mortgaged  Property acquired as REO Property in a manner that would, to
       the  extent  commercially  feasible,  maximize  the  Trust  Fund's  net
       after-tax proceeds from such property. After the Master Servicer or any
       related Sub-servicer or the  Special Servicer reviews the operation  of
       such  property and  consults with  the Trustee  to determine  the Trust
       Fund's federal income tax reporting position with respect to the income
       it is  anticipated that the Trust Fund would derive from such property,
       the Master Servicer or any related Sub-servicer or the Special Servicer
       could determine (particularly in the case of  an REO Property that is a
       hospitality or residential  health care facility) that it  would not be
       commercially feasible to  manage and operate such property  in a manner
       that  would  avoid  the  imposition  of  a  tax  on  "net  income  from
       foreclosure  property," within the  meaning of Section  857(b)(4)(B) of
       the Code  (an "REO  Tax") at  the highest  marginal corporate  tax rate
       (currently 35%).  The determination  as to whether  income from  an REO
       Property would  be subject to  an REO Tax  will depend on  the specific
       facts and  circumstances relating  to the management  and operation  of
       each REO Property. Any REO Tax imposed  on the Trust Fund's income from
       an REO Property  would reduce the amount available  for distribution to
       Certificateholders. Certificateholders are advised to consult their tax
       advisors regarding  the possible imposition of REO  Taxes in connection
       with the operation of commercial REO Properties by REMICs. See "Certain
       Federal Income Tax Consequences" herein and "Certain Federal Income Tax
       Consequences-REMICs" in the Prospectus.

        Rights of Redemption

            The purposes of  a foreclosure action are to  enable the mortgagee
       to realize upon its security and to bar the mortgagor, and  all persons
       who  have  an interest  in the  property  which is  subordinate  to the
       mortgage   being  foreclosed,  from   exercise  of  their   "equity  of
       redemption." The doctrine of equity  of redemption provides that, until
       the property covered by  a mortgage has been sold in  accordance with a
       properly  conducted foreclosure and  foreclosure sale, those  having an
       interest which is subordinate to that of the foreclosing mortgagee have
       an  equity of  redemption and  may redeem  the property  by paying  the
       entire  debt  with  interest.  In  addition, in  some  states,  when  a
       foreclosure  action has been  commenced, the  redeeming party  must pay
       certain costs of such action. Those having an equity of redemption must
       generally be made  parties and joined in the  foreclosure proceeding in
       order for their equity of redemption to be cut off and terminated.

            The equity  of redemption  is a  common-law (non-statutory)  right
       which exists prior to completion of the foreclosure, is not waivable by
       the mortgagor, must  be exercised prior to foreclosure  sale and should
       be distinguished from the post-sale  statutory rights of redemption. In
       some states, after sale pursuant to a deed of trust or foreclosure of a
       mortgage,  the  mortgagor and  foreclosed  junior lienors  are  given a
       statutory period in  which to redeem the property  from the foreclosure
       sale. In some states, statutory  redemption may occur only upon payment
       of  the foreclosure  sale price.  In  other states,  redemption may  be
       authorized if the former mortgagor pays only a portion of the sums due.
       The  effect of  a  statutory right  of redemption  is  to diminish  the
       ability  of the lender to sell the foreclosed property. The exercise of
       a right of  redemption would defeat the  title of any purchaser  from a
       foreclosure  sale or  sale under  a  deed of  trust. Consequently,  the
       practical effect of  the redemption  right is  to force  the lender  to
       maintain  the property  and pay  the  expenses of  ownership until  the
       redemption period  has expired. In  some states, a  post-sale statutory
       right of redemption may exist following a judicial foreclosure, but not
       following a trustee's sale under a deed of trust.

            Under  the REMIC Provisions currently in effect, property acquired
            by foreclosure generally  must not be held beyond the close of the
            third  calendar year  following the year  of acquisition.   Unless
            otherwise provided  in  the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  with
            respect to a series of Certificates for which an  election is made
            to  qualify  the Trust  Fund or  a  part thereof  as a  REMIC, the
            Agreement will  permit foreclosed property  to be held  beyond the
            close of the third calendar year following the year of acquisition
            if the Internal Revenue Service grants an extension of time within
            which  to sell  such property  or independent  counsel renders  an
            opinion  to  the  effect  that  holding  such  property  for  such
            additional period is permissible under the REMIC Provisions.

        Anti-Deficiency Legislation

            Some or all  of the Mortgage Loans may be nonrecourse loans, as to
       which recourse may  be had only against the  specific property securing
       the related  Mortgage Loan  and a  personal money judgment  may not  be
       obtained against the mortgagor.  Even if a mortgage  loan by its  terms
       provides for recourse to the mortgagor, some states impose prohibitions
       or limitations on  such recourse. For example, statutes  in some states
       limit the  right of the lender to  obtain a deficiency judgment against
       the  mortgagor following foreclosure or  sale under a  deed of trust. A
       deficiency judgment would  be a  personal judgment  against the  former
       mortgagor equal to the difference  between the net amount realized upon
       the public sale of the real property and the amount due  to the lender.
       Some states require the lender to exhaust the security afforded under a
       mortgage by foreclosure  in an attempt to satisfy  the full debt before
       bringing a  personal  action against  the mortgagor.  In certain  other
       states, the lender has the option of bringing a personal action against
       the  mortgagor on  the  debt without  first  exhausting such  security;
       however, in  some of  these states, the  lender, following  judgment on
       such personal action, may be deemed to have elected a remedy and may be
       precluded from  exercising remedies with  respect to  the security.  In
       some cases, a  lender will be precluded from  exercising any additional
       rights under the note or mortgage if it has taken any prior enforcement
       action. Consequently, the practical effect of the election requirement,
       in those states permitting such  election, is that lenders will usually
       proceed against  the security  first  rather than  bringing a  personal
       action against the mortgagor. Finally, other statutory provisions limit
       any  deficiency judgment  against  the  former  mortgagor  following  a
       judicial  sale to  the excess  of the  outstanding debt  over the  fair
       market value  of  the property  at the  time of  the  public sale.  The
       purpose  of  these statutes  is  generally  to  prevent a  lender  from
       obtaining a large deficiency judgment against the former mortgagor as a
       result of low or no bids at the judicial sale.

        Leasehold Risks

            Mortgage  Loans may be  secured by a  mortgage on a  ground lease.
       Leasehold mortgages are  subject to certain  risks not associated  with
       mortgage loans secured  by the  fee estate of  the mortgagor. The  most
       significant  of these  risks  is  that the  ground  lease creating  the
       leasehold  estate  could  terminate,  leaving  the leasehold  mortgagee
       without its  security. The ground  lease may terminate if,  among other
       reasons,  the ground  lessee breaches  or defaults  in its  obligations
       under the ground lease or there is a bankruptcy of the ground lessee or
       the  ground lessor.  This  risk may  be minimized  if the  ground lease
       contains certain provisions protective of the mortgagee, but the ground
       leases  that  secure Mortgage  Loans  may  not  contain some  of  these
       protective   provisions,  and  mortgages  may  not  contain  the  other
       protections  discussed in the  next paragraph. Protective  ground lease
       provisions  include the  right of  the  leasehold mortgagee  to receive
       notices from the  ground lessor of  any defaults by the  mortgagor; the
       right to cure such  defaults, with adequate cure periods;  if a default
       is not  susceptible of  cure by the  leasehold mortgagee, the  right to
       acquire  the leasehold  estate through  foreclosure  or otherwise;  the
       ability  of the  ground lease to  be assigned  to and by  the leasehold
       mortgagee or  purchaser at a  foreclosure sale and for  the concomitant
       release of the ground lessee's liabilities thereunder; and the right of
       the  leasehold mortgagee  to enter  into a  new  ground lease  with the
       ground lessor on the same terms and conditions as the old  ground lease
       in the event of a termination thereof.

            In  addition to the  foregoing protections, a  leasehold mortgagee
       may require  that the ground  lease or leasehold mortgage  prohibit the
       ground lessee from treating the ground lease as terminated in the event
       of the ground lessor's bankruptcy and  rejection of the ground lease by
       the  trustee  for the  debtor-ground lessor.  As further  protection, a
       leasehold mortgage may provide for the assignment of  the debtor-ground
       lessee's  right  to  reject a  lease  pursuant to  Section  365  of the
       Bankruptcy  Reform Act  of 1978,  as amended  (Title  11 of  the United
       States  Code) (the "Bankruptcy  Code"), although the  enforceability of
       such clause has not been established. Without the protections described
       above,  a  leasehold mortgagee  may  lose the  collateral  securing its
       leasehold mortgage.  In addition, terms  and conditions of  a leasehold
       mortgage are subject to  the terms and conditions of  the ground lease.
       Although certain rights given to a ground  lessee can be limited by the
       terms of  a leasehold  mortgage, the  rights of  a ground  lessee or  a
       leasehold mortgagee  with respect  to, among  other things,  insurance,
       casualty and  condemnation will  be governed by  the provisions  of the
       ground lease.

       Bankruptcy Laws

            The Bankruptcy Code  and related state laws may  interfere with or
       affect the  ability of  a lender to  realize upon collateral  and/or to
       enforce a deficiency  judgment. For example, under the Bankruptcy Code,
       virtually  all  actions (including  foreclosure actions  and deficiency
       judgment proceedings) are automatically stayed  upon the filing of  the
       bankruptcy  petition, and, usually,  no interest or  principal payments
       are made during  the course of the  bankruptcy case. The delay  and the
       consequences thereof caused by such  automatic stay can be significant.
       Also, under the Bankruptcy Code, the filing of a petition in bankruptcy
       by or  on behalf of  a junior lienor  may stay  the senior lender  from
       taking action to foreclose out such junior lien.

            Under  the  Bankruptcy  Code,  provided  certain  substantive  and
       procedural safeguards for the lender are met, the amount and terms of a
       mortgage  secured by  property  of  the debtor  may  be modified  under
       certain circumstances. In many jurisdictions, the outstanding amount of
       the  loan  secured  by  the  real  property  may  be  reduced  to   the
       then-current  value of  the  property  (with  a  corresponding  partial
       reduction of  the amount of  lender's security interest) pursuant  to a
       confirmed plan or lien avoidance  proceeding, thus leaving the lender a
       general  unsecured creditor for  the difference between  such value and
       the outstanding balance  of the loan.  Other modifications may  include
       the reduction in the amount  of each scheduled payment, which reduction
       may  result  from  a reduction  in  the  rate  of  interest and/or  the
       alteration  of the  repayment schedule (with  or without  affecting the
       unpaid  principal  balance  of  the  loan),  and/or  an  extension  (or
       reduction)  of  the  final  maturity date.  Some  courts  with  federal
       bankruptcy  jurisdiction have approved  plans, based on  the particular
       facts  of  the reorganization  case,  that  effected  the curing  of  a
       mortgage  loan default  by paying  arrearages over  a number  of years.
       Also, under  federal bankruptcy  law, a bankruptcy  court may  permit a
       debtor through its rehabilitative plan  to de-accelerate a secured loan
       and  to reinstate  the  loan  even though  the  lender accelerated  the
       mortgage loan  and final  judgment of foreclosure  had been  entered in
       state court (provided no  sale of the property had yet  occurred) prior
       to  the filing of the debtor's  petition. This may be  done even if the
       full amount due under the original loan is never repaid.

            Federal  bankruptcy  law   provides  generally  that   rights  and
       obligation under  an unexpired  lease of the  debtor/lessee may  not be
       terminated  or modified at  any time after  the commencement  of a case
       under  the Bankruptcy Code  solely on the  basis of a  provision in the
       lease to such effect  or because of certain other  similar events. This
       prohibition on so-called "ipso  facto clauses" could limit the  ability
       of  the  Trustee for  a  series  of  Certificates to  exercise  certain
       contractual remedies with respect  to the Leases. In  addition, Section
       362 of  the Bankruptcy Code  operates as  an automatic  stay of,  among
       other things, any act to obtain possession of property from a  debtor's
       estate,  which may  delay a Trustee's  exercise of such  remedies for a
       related series of  Certificates in the event that a related Lessee or a
       related  mortgagor  becomes  the  subject  of  a proceeding  under  the
       Bankruptcy  Code.  For  example,  a  mortgagee  would  be  stayed  from
       enforcing  a Lease  Assignment by  a mortgagor  related to  a Mortgaged
       Property if the  related mortgagor was in a  bankruptcy proceeding. The
       legal   proceedings  necessary   to  resolve   the   issues  could   be
       time-consuming and might result in significant delays in the receipt of
       the assigned rents.  Similarly, the filing of a  petition in bankruptcy
       by or on behalf of a Lessee  of a Mortgaged Property would result in  a
       stay  against  the commencement  or  continuation  of any  state  court
       proceeding for  past due rent, for accelerated rent, for damages or for
       a summary eviction order with respect to a default under the Lease that
       occurred prior to the filing of  the Lessee's petition. Rents and other
       proceeds  of a Mortgage  Loan may also escape  an assignment thereof if
       the  assignment  is  not  fully  perfected under  state  law  prior  to
       commencement of  the bankruptcy  proceeding. See  "--Leases and  Rents"
       above.

            In addition, the Bankruptcy Code generally provides that a trustee
       or debtor-in-possession  may,  subject to  approval of  the court,  (a)
       assume  the lease and  retain it or assign  it to a  third party or (b)
       reject the lease. If the lease is assumed, the trustee in bankruptcy on
       behalf of  the lessee,  or the lessee  as debtor-in-possession,  or the
       assignee,  if  applicable,  must cure  any  defaults  under the  lease,
       compensate  the lessor  for  its  losses and  provide  the lessor  with
       "adequate  assurance" of  future  performance.  Such  remedies  may  be
       insufficient, however,  as the lessor  may be forced to  continue under
       the lease  with a lessee  that is a poor  credit risk or  an unfamiliar
       tenant if  the lease was assigned,  and any assurances provided  to the
       lessor may, in  fact, be  inadequate. If  the lease  is rejected,  such
       rejection generally constitutes a  breach of the executory contract  or
       unexpired lease immediately before the  date of filing the petition. As
       a consequence, the  other party or parties  to such lease, such  as the
       mortgagor, as lessor under  a Lease, would have only an unsecured claim
       against the debtor for damages  resulting from such breach, which could
       adversely affect  the  security  for  the  related  Mortgage  Loan.  In
       addition,  pursuant  to Section  502(b)(6)  of the  Bankruptcy  Code, a
       lessor's  damages  for  lease  rejection  in  respect  of  future  rent
       installments are  limited to  the rent reserved  by the  lease, without
       acceleration, for the greater  of one year or 15%, not  to exceed three
       years, of the remaining term of the lease.

            If a trustee in bankruptcy on  behalf of a lessor, or a  lessor as
       debtor-in-possession,  rejects an unexpired lease of real property, the
       lessee may treat such lease as terminated by such rejection or,  in the
       alternative, the lessee may remain in 
       possession of the  leasehold for the balance  of such term and  for any
       renewal or  extension of such  term that  is enforceable by  the lessee
       under applicable nonbankruptcy  law. The Bankruptcy Code  provides that
       if a lessee elects to remain in possession after such  a rejection of a
       lease, the lessee may offset against rents reserved under the lease for
       the balance of the  term after the date of rejection  of the lease, and
       any such renewal or extension thereof, any damages occurring after such
       date caused by the nonperformance of any obligation of the lessor under
       the lease  after  such date.  To  the extent  provided in  the  related
       Prospectus  Supplement, the Lessee  will agree under  certain Leases to
       pay all amounts owing thereunder to the Master Servicer without offset.
       To the  extent that such  a contractual obligation  remains enforceable
       against the Lessee, the Lessee would not be able to avail itself of the
       rights of offset  generally afforded to lessees of  real property under
       the Bankruptcy Code.

            In a bankruptcy  or similar proceeding of a  mortgagor, action may
       be  taken seeking the recovery, as a  preferential transfer or on other
       grounds, of any payments made by the mortgagor, or made directly by the
       related  Lessee, under  the related  Mortgage Loan  to the  Trust Fund.
       Payments  on  long-term  debt   may  be  protected  from  recovery   as
       preferences if  they are  payments in the  ordinary course  of business
       made on debts  incurred in the ordinary course of business. Whether any
       particular  payment would be protected depends  upon the facts specific
       to a particular transaction.

            A trustee in bankruptcy, in some cases, may be entitled to collect
       its costs and expenses in  preserving or selling the mortgaged property
       ahead  of payment to the lender. In  certain circumstances, a debtor in
       bankruptcy  may have the power to  grant liens senior to  the lien of a
       mortgage, and analogous state statutes and general principles of equity
       may  also  provide  a  mortgagor  with  means  to  halt  a  foreclosure
       proceeding or sale and to force  a restructuring of a mortgage loan  on
       terms  a lender  would  not  otherwise accept.  Moreover,  the laws  of
       certain states also give priority to certain tax liens over the lien of
       a mortgage or  deed of trust. Under  the Bankruptcy Code, if  the court
       finds that actions of the mortgagee have been unreasonable, the lien of
       the related  mortgage may  be subordinated to  the claims  of unsecured
       creditors.

            To  the extent  described in  the  related Prospectus  Supplement,
       certain  of the  Mortgagors  may be  partnerships.  The laws  governing
       limited partnerships in certain states provide that the commencement of
       a case under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to a general partner will
       cause  a  person  to cease  to  be  a general  partner  of  the limited
       partnership,  unless otherwise  provided  in  writing  in  the  limited
       partnership agreement.  This provision  may  be construed  as an  "ipso
       facto" clause  and, in the  event of the general  partner's bankruptcy,
       may  not  be  enforceable.  To  the extent  described  in  the  related
       Prospectus Supplement, certain  limited partnership  agreements of  the
       Mortgagors  may provide  that  the  commencement of  a  case under  the
       Bankruptcy Code with respect to the related general partner constitutes
       an event  of withdrawal (assuming  the enforceability of the  clause is
       not challenged in  bankruptcy proceedings or, if challenged, is upheld)
       that  might trigger  the dissolution  of the  limited partnership,  the
       winding up of  its affairs and the  distribution of its assets,  unless
       (i) at the  time there was at  least one other general  partner and the
       written provisions  of the limited  partnership permit the  business of
       the  limited partnership  to be  carried  on by  the remaining  general
       partner and that general partner does so or (ii) the written provisions
       of  the limited  partnership  agreement permit  the limited  partner to
       agree  within  a  specified  time  frame (often  60  days)  after  such
       withdrawal to continue  the business of the limited  partnership and to
       the  appointment  of one  or  more  general  partners and  the  limited
       partners do so. In addition, the laws governing general partnerships in
       certain  states provide  that  the  commencement of  a  case under  the
       Bankruptcy  Code or  state bankruptcy  laws with  respect to  a general
       partner  of  such   partnerships  triggers  the  dissolution   of  such
       partnership, the winding up of its affairs and the distribution of  its
       assets. Such state  laws, however, may not be  enforceable or effective
       in a bankruptcy case. The dissolution of a Mortgagor, the winding up of
       its  affairs and  the distribution  of its  assets could  result in  an
       acceleration of its  payment obligation under a  related Mortgage Loan,
       which may reduce the yield on the related series of Certificates in the
       same manner as a principal prepayment.

            In addition, the bankruptcy of  the general partner of a Mortgagor
       that is a  partnership may  provide the  opportunity for  a trustee  in
       bankruptcy  for  such  general  partner,  such  general  partner  as  a
       debtor-in-possession, or a  creditor of such general partner  to obtain
       an order from a court  consolidating the assets and liabilities  of the
       general partner with  those of the Mortgagor pursuant  to the doctrines
       of substantive consolidation or piercing  the corporate veil. In such a
       case,  the respective  Mortgaged Property,  for  example, would  become
       property of the estate of such bankrupt general partner. Not only would
       the Mortgaged Property be available  to satisfy the claims of creditors
       of such  general partner,  but an  automatic stay  would  apply to  any
       attempt  by the  Trustee  to  exercise remedies  with  respect to  such
       Mortgaged Property. However,  such an occurrence should not  affect the
       Trustee's status as a secured creditor with respect to the Mortgagor or
       its security interest in the Mortgaged Property.

       Junior Mortgages; Rights of Senior Mortgagees or Beneficiaries

            To the extent specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, some
            of the  Mortgage Loans  for a  series will  be  secured by  junior
            mortgages  or  deeds of  trust  which are  subordinated  to senior
            mortgages or deeds of trust held by other lenders or institutional
            investors. The rights of the Trust Fund (and therefore the related
            Certificateholders), as beneficiary  under a junior deed  of trust
            or as mortgagee under a  junior mortgage, are subordinate to those
            of the mortgagee or beneficiary  under the senior mortgage or deed
            of trust,  including the prior  rights of the senior  mortgagee or
            beneficiary  to receive  rents, hazard insurance  and condemnation
            proceeds and to cause the Mortgaged Property securing the Mortgage
            Loan  to be sold upon default of the Mortgagor or trustor, thereby
            extinguishing the junior mortgagee's or junior  beneficiary's lien
            unless the  Master Servicer  or Special  Servicer, as  applicable,
            asserts  its subordinate  interest  in  a  Mortgaged  Property  in
            foreclosure  litigation or satisfies the defaulted senior loan. As
            discussed more fully  below, in many states a  junior mortgagee or
            beneficiary may  satisfy a defaulted  senior loan in full,  or may
            cure such  default and  bring the senior  loan current,  in either
            event adding the amounts expended to the balance due on the junior
            loan.  Absent a  provision in  the senior  mortgage, no  notice of
            default is  required to  be given to  the junior  mortgagee unless
            otherwise required by law.

            The  form  of  the  mortgage  or  deed  of  trust   used  by  many
       institutional lenders confers on the mortgagee or beneficiary the right
       both  to receive  all  proceeds collected  under  any hazard  insurance
       policy  and  all  awards  made  in  connection  with  any  condemnation
       proceedings, and to apply such  proceeds and awards to any indebtedness
       secured  by  the  mortgage or  deed  of  trust, in  such  order  as the
       mortgagee or beneficiary may determine. Thus, in the event improvements
       on the property  are damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, or
       in the event  the property is taken  by condemnation, the  mortgagee or
       beneficiary under  the senior mortgage or  deed of trust will  have the
       prior right to collect any  insurance proceeds payable under the hazard
       insurance  policy and  any  award  of damages  in  connection with  the
       condemnation and to  apply the same to the  indebtedness secured by the
       senior mortgage or deed of trust.  Proceeds in excess of the amount  of
       senior mortgage  indebtedness will,  in most cases,  be applied  to the
       indebtedness of  a junior mortgage or  trust deed. The laws  of certain
       states may  limit the ability  of mortgagees or beneficiaries  to apply
       the proceeds of hazard insurance and partial condemnation awards to the
       secured indebtedness. In such states,  the mortgagor or trustor must be
       allowed to use  the proceeds of hazard  insurance to repair  the damage
       unless the security of the  mortgagee or beneficiary has been impaired.
       Similarly, in certain states, the mortgagee  or beneficiary is entitled
       to  the award for a partial  condemnation of the real property security
       only to the extent that its security is impaired.

            The  form of mortgage or deed of  trust used by many institutional
       lenders typically contains a "future advance" clause, which provides in
       essence,  that additional  amounts  advanced  to or  on  behalf of  the
       mortgagor or trustor by the mortgagee or beneficiary are to  be secured
       by the mortgage or deed  of trust. While such  a clause is valid  under
       the laws of  most states, the  priority of any  advance made under  the
       clause  depends,  in  some  states,  on  whether  the  advance  was  an
       "obligatory"  or "optional" advance. If the mortgagee or beneficiary is
       obligated  to  advance the  additional  amounts,  the  advance  may  be
       entitled to receive  the same priority as amounts  initially made under
       the  mortgage or  deed  of  trust, notwithstanding  that  there may  be
       intervening junior mortgages or deeds  of trust and other liens between
       the date of recording of the mortgage or deed of trust and  the date of
       the  future  advance,   and  notwithstanding  that  the   mortgagee  or
       beneficiary had actual  knowledge of such intervening  junior mortgages
       or deeds of trust and other liens at the time of the advance. Where the
       mortgagee or  beneficiary is  not obligated to  advance the  additional
       amounts and has actual knowledge of the intervening junior mortgages or
       deeds of trust and other liens, the advance may be subordinated to such
       intervening  junior  mortgages  or  deeds  of  trust and  other  liens.
       Priority of  advances under  a "future advance"  clause rests,  in many
       other states, on state law  giving priority to all advances  made under
       the loan agreement up to a "credit limit" amount stated in the recorded
       mortgage.

            Another provision typically  found in the form of  the mortgage or
       deed  of  trust  used  by  many  institutional  lenders  obligates  the
       mortgagor  or  trustor   to  pay  before  delinquency   all  taxes  and
       assessments  on the property  and, when due,  all encumbrances, charges
       and liens on the property which appear prior to the mortgage or deed of
       trust,  to provide  and maintain  fire  insurance on  the property,  to
       maintain and repair the property and not to commit or permit  any waste
       thereof,  and  to  appear  in  and  defend  any  action  or  proceeding
       purporting to affect  the property  or the rights  of the mortgagee  or
       beneficiary under the mortgage or deed of trust. Upon a failure  of the
       mortgagor or trustor to perform any of these obligations, the mortgagee
       or beneficiary is given  the right under the mortgage or  deed of trust
       to perform the  obligation itself, at its election,  with the mortgagor
       or trustor agreeing to reimburse the mortgagee or beneficiary on behalf
       of the mortgagor or  trustor. All sums so expended by  the mortgagee or
       beneficiary become part of the  indebtedness secured by the mortgage or
       deed of trust.

            The form of  mortgage or deed of trust used  by many institutional
       lenders typically  requires  the mortgagor  or  trustor to  obtain  the
       consent of the mortgagee or beneficiary in respect of actions affecting
       the  mortgaged   property,  including,   without  limitation,   leasing
       activities (including  new leases  and termination  or modification  of
       existing leases), alterations and 
       improvements to buildings forming a  part of the mortgaged property and
       management and leasing  agreements for the mortgaged  property. Tenants
       will  often  refuse  to  execute   a  lease  unless  the  mortgagee  or
       beneficiary executes a written agreement with the tenant not to disturb
       the tenant's possession of its premises  in the event of a foreclosure.
       A  senior mortgagee  or beneficiary  may refuse  to consent  to matters
       approved by a junior mortgagee or beneficiary with the result  that the
       value of  the security  for the  junior mortgage  or deed  of trust  is
       diminished. For example, a  senior mortgagee or beneficiary may  decide
       not  to   approve  the  lease  or  to  refuse   to  grant  a  tenant  a
       non-disturbance agreement. If, as a  result, the lease is not executed,
       the value of the mortgaged property may be diminished.

       Environmental Legislation

            Real property  pledged as security to  a lender may be  subject to
       unforeseen  environmental liabilities.  Of  particular  concern may  be
       those  Mortgaged  Properties which  are,  or  have  been, the  site  of
       manufacturing,  industrial  or  disposal activity.  Such  environmental
       liabilities  may give  rise to  (i) a  diminution in value  of property
       securing any Mortgage Loan, (ii) limitation on the ability to foreclose
       against such property or (iii)  in certain circumstances, as more fully
       described  below,  liability  for  clean-up  costs  or  other  remedial
       actions,  which  liability could  exceed  the  value of  the  principal
       balance of the related Mortgage Loan or of such Mortgaged Property.

            Under the  laws of  many states, contamination  on a  property may
       give rise  to a  lien on  the property  for cleanup  costs. In  several
       states,  such  a   lien  has  priority  over  all   existing  liens  (a
       "superlien")  including those of  existing mortgages; in  these states,
       the lien of  a mortgage contemplated by  this transaction may  lose its
       priority to such a superlien.

            The presence of  hazardous or toxic substances, or  the failure to
       remediate such property properly, may adversely affect the market value
       of the property, as well as the owner's ability to sell or use the real
       estate  or to borrow using the real  estate as collateral. In addition,
       certain  environmental  laws  and  common  law  principles  govern  the
       responsibility   for  the  removal,  encapsulation  or  disturbance  of
       asbestos  containing materials  ("ACMs") when  these  ACMs are  in poor
       condition or when a property with ACMs is undergoing repair, renovation
       or demolition. Such  laws could also be  used to impose  liability upon
       owners and  operators of real properties  for release of ACMs  into the
       air that cause personal injury or other  damage. In addition to cleanup
       and  natural resource  damages actions  brought by federal,  state, and
       local  agencies  and   private  parties,  the  presence   of  hazardous
       substances  on  a property  may  lead  to  claims of  personal  injury,
       property damage, or other claims by private plaintiffs.

            Under   the   federal    Comprehensive   Environmental   Response,
       Compensation  and Liability  Act of  1980, as  amended  ("CERCLA"), and
       under  the  law of  certain  states,  a  secured  party which  takes  a
       deed-in-lieu  of foreclosure,  purchases  a  mortgaged  property  at  a
       foreclosure sale, or operates a Mortgaged Property may become liable in
       some circumstances either  to the government or to  private parties for
       cleanup costs,  even if the lender does not  cause or contribute to the
       contamination. Liability under some  federal or state statutes  may not
       be limited to  the original or unamortized principal balance  of a loan
       or to the value of the property securing a loan. CERCLA imposes strict,
       as  well  as  joint  and  several,  liability  on  several  classes  of
       potentially responsible parties, including current owners and operators
       of the  property, regardless of  whether they caused or  contributed to
       the contamination. Many states have laws similar to CERCLA.

            Lenders may  be held liable  under CERCLA as owners  or operators.
       Excluded from CERCLA's definition of "owner or operator," however, is a
       person "who  without participating in  the management of  the facility,
       holds indicia of ownership primarily to protect his security interest."
       This exemption  for holders of  a security  interest such as  a secured
       lender applies only  in circumstances where the lender  acts to protect
       its security interest in the  contaminated facility or property.  Thus,
       if  a lender's  activities encroach  on the  actual management  of such
       facility or property, the lender faces potential liability as an "owner
       or  operator" under  CERCLA. Similarly,  when a  lender forecloses  and
       takes title  to a contaminated  facility or property (whether  it holds
       the facility  or property  as an  investment or  leases it  to a  third
       party), the lender may incur potential CERCLA liability.

            Whether  actions  taken  by  a lender  would  constitute  such  an
       encroachment on the actual management of  a facility or property, so as
       to render the secured creditor  exemption unavailable to the lender has
       been a matter of judicial interpretation of the statutory language, and
       court decisions have historically been inconsistent.

            This scope of the secured creditor exemption has been clarified by
       the enactment of  the Asset Conservation, Lender Liability  and Deposit
       Insurance Protection Act  of 1996 (the "Asset Conservation Act"), which
       was  signed into law  by President Clinton  on September 30,  1996, and
       which  lists permissible  actions that  may be  undertaken by  a lender
       holding security in 
       a contaminated  facility without  exceeding the  bounds of  the secured
       creditor  exemption, subject to certain conditions and limitations. The
       Asset  Conservation Act  provides that  in order to  be deemed  to have
       participated in  the management  of a secured  property, a  lender must
       actually participate in the operational  affairs of the property or the
       borrower. The Asset  Conservation Act also provides that  a lender will
       continue to have the benefit of the secured creditor  exemption even if
       it forecloses  on a mortgaged  property, purchases it at  a foreclosure
       sale or accepts a deed-in-lieu  of foreclosure provided that the lender
       seeks  to  sell the  mortgaged  property  at the  earliest  practicable
       commercially  reasonable time  on  commercially  reasonable terms.  The
       protections afforded lenders under the Asset Conversion Act are subject
       to terms and conditions that have not been clarified by the courts.

            The  secured creditor  exemption does  not protect  a lender  from
       liability under CERCLA in cases  where the lender arranges for disposal
       of  hazardous substances or for transportation of hazardous substances.
       In addition, the secured  creditor exemption does not govern  liability
       for  cleanup  costs under  federal  laws  other than  CERCLA.  CERCLA's
       jurisdiction extends to  the investigation and remediation  of releases
       of  "hazardous substances."  The definition  of  "hazardous substances"
       under CERCLA  specifically  excludes petroleum  products. Therefore,  a
       federal statute  of  particular  significance  is  Subtitle  I  of  the
       Resource  Conservation and  Recovery Act  ("RCRA"),  which governs  the
       operation  and management of underground petroleum storage tanks. Under
       the  Asset  Conservation  Act,  the holders  of  security  interests in
       underground  storage  tanks  or properties  containing  such  tanks are
       accorded protections  similar to  the protections  accorded to  lenders
       under CERCLA. It  should be noted, however, that  liability for cleanup
       of petroleum contamination may  be governed by state law, which may not
       provide for any specific protection for secured creditors.

            In  a  few  states,  transfer  of  some  types  of  properties  is
       conditioned upon clean up of  contamination prior to transfer. In these
       cases,  a  lender  that  becomes   the  owner  of  a  property  through
       foreclosure,  deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, may be required
       to cleanup the  contamination before selling or  otherwise transferring
       the property.

            Beyond statute-based  environmental liability, there  exist common
       law causes  of action  (for example,  actions based  on nuisance or  on
       toxic tort resulting  in death, personal injury or  damage to property)
       related to hazardous  environmental conditions on a  property. While it
       may  be  more  difficult  to  hold  a  lender  liable  in  such  cases,
       unanticipated or uninsurable liabilities of the borrower may jeopardize
       the borrower's ability to meet its loan obligations.

            If a  lender is  or becomes  liable, it  may bring  an action  for
       contribution   against  the   owner  or   operator   who  created   the
       environmental  hazard, but  that person  or entity  may be  bankrupt or
       otherwise  judgment  proof. It  is  possible that  cleanup  costs could
       become  a  liability  of   the  Trust  Fund  and  occasion  a  loss  to
       Certificateholders  in certain  circumstances  described above  if such
       remedial costs were incurred.

            Unless otherwise provided  in the  related Prospectus  Supplement,
       the  Warrantying Party  with respect  to any  Whole Loan included  in a
       Trust Fund for a particular  series of Certificates will represent that
       a "Phase I Assessment" as described in  and meeting the requirements of
       the then current version of Chapter 5 of the  Federal National Mortgage
       Association  ("FNMA") Multifamily Guide has been received and reviewed.
       In  addition, unless  otherwise  provided  in  the  related  Prospectus
       Supplement,   the  related  Agreement  will  provide  that  the  Master
       Servicer, acting on behalf of the  Trustee, may not acquire title to  a
       Mortgaged  Property  or  take  over its  operation  unless  the  Master
       Servicer has  previously determined,  based on a  report prepared  by a
       person  who regularly  conducts environmental  audits,  that: (i)  such
       Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws,
       and there  are  no  circumstances present  at  the  Mortgaged  Property
       relating  to  the   use,  management  or  disposal   of  any  hazardous
       substances, hazardous materials, wastes,  or petroleum based  materials
       for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment,  clean-up or
       remediation could  be required under any federal, state or local law or
       regulation; or (ii) if  such Mortgaged Property is not so in compliance
       or such circumstances  are so  present, then  it would be  in the  best
       economic interest of the Trust  Fund to acquire title to the  Mortgaged
       Property and further  to take such  actions as would  be necessary  and
       appropriate   to  effect  such   compliance  and/or  respond   to  such
       circumstances. This  requirement effectively  precludes enforcement  of
       the  security  for  the  related  Mortgage  Note until  a  satisfactory
       environmental inquiry is undertaken or any required remedial action  is
       provided  for, reducing  the likelihood  that a  given Trust  Fund will
       become liable for  any condition or circumstance that  may give rise to
       any environmental claim (an "Environmental Hazard Condition") affecting
       a Mortgaged Property, but  making it more difficult  to realize on  the
       security for the Mortgage Loan. However, there can be no assurance that
       any environmental  assessment  obtained by  the  Master Servicer  or  a
       Special  Servicer,  as  the  case  may be,  will  detect  all  possible
       Environmental Hazard Conditions  or that the other  requirements of the
       Agreement, even  if fully  observed by the  Master Servicer  or Special
       Servicer, as the case may be, will  in fact insulate a given Trust Fund
       from liability for Environmental Hazard Conditions. See "Description of
       the Agreements--Realization Upon Defaulted Whole Loans."

            Unless otherwise  specified in the related  Prospectus Supplement,
       the  Depositor generally will not have determined whether environmental
       assessments  have  been   conducted  with  respect  to   the  Mortgaged
       Properties relating to the Mortgage Loans included in the Mortgage Pool
       for a Series, and it is likely that any environmental assessments which
       would  have  been  conducted  with  respect to  any  of  the  Mortgaged
       Properties would have been conducted at the time of the origination  of
       the  related Mortgage  Loans and  not thereafter.  If specified  in the
       related Prospectus Supplement,  a Warrantying Party will  represent and
       warrant that, as of the date of initial issuance of the Certificates of
       a Series or as of another specified date, no related Mortgaged Property
       is affected  by a  Disqualifying Condition (as  defined below).  In the
       event  that, following  a default  in payment on  a Mortgage  Loan that
       continues for 60  days, (i) the environmental inquiry  conducted by the
       Master Servicer  or Special Servicer, as the case  may be, prior to any
       foreclosure  indicates the presence  of a Disqualifying  Condition that
       arose prior to  the date of initial  issuance of the Certificates  of a
       Series and  (ii) the  Master Servicer or  the Special  Servicer certify
       that  it has  acted in compliance  with the Servicing  Standard and has
       not, by any  action, created, caused or contributed  to a Disqualifying
       Condition the  Warrantying  Party, at  its option,  will reimburse  the
       Trust   Fund,  cure  such  Disqualifying  Condition  or  repurchase  or
       substitute the  affected Whole Loan, as described under "Description of
       the Agreements--Representations  and Warranties; Repurchases."  No such
       person will  however, be  responsible for  any Disqualifying  Condition
       which  may arise  on a  Mortgaged Property  after the  date of  initial
       issuance  of the  Certificates of  the related  Series, whether  due to
       actions of the Mortgagor, the  Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or
       any other person.  It may not always be possible to determine whether a
       Disqualifying Condition  arose prior or  subsequent to the date  of the
       initial issuance of the Certificates of a Series.

            A "Disqualifying Condition"  is defined generally as  a condition,
       existing as a  result of, or  arising from, the  presence of  Hazardous
       Materials (as  defined below)  on a Mortgaged  Property, such  that the
       Mortgage Loan  secured  by the  affected  Mortgaged Property  would  be
       ineligible, solely  by reason of  such condition, for purchase  by FNMA
       under  the  relevant provisions  of FNMA's  Multifamily Seller/Servicer
       Guide in effect as of the date of initial issuance of  the Certificates
       of such series, including a  condition that would constitute a material
       violation of  applicable federal  state or  local law in  effect as  of
       their date of initial issuance of the Certificates of such series.
            "Hazardous Materials" are generally  defined under several federal
       and   state  statutes,  and   include  dangerous  toxic   or  hazardous
       pollutants,  chemicals,   wastes  or  substances,   including,  without
       limitation, those  so  identified  pursuant to  CERCLA  and  RCRA,  and
       specifically  including, asbestos  and  asbestos containing  materials,
       polychlorinated biphenyls, radon gas, petroleum and petroleum products,
       urea   formaldehyde  and  any   substances  classified  as   being  "in
       inventory,"  "usable work in  process" or similar  classification which
       would,  if  classified  as  unusable,  be  included  in  the  foregoing
       definition.

       Due-on-Sale and Due-on-Encumbrance

            Certain   of  the  Mortgage  Loans  may  contain  due-on-sale  and
       due-on-encumbrance clauses.  These clauses  generally provide  that the
       lender may accelerate  the maturity of the loan if  the mortgagor sells
       or otherwise  transfers or  encumbers the  related Mortgaged  Property.
       Certain of  these clauses  may provide that,  upon an  attempted breach
       thereof  by the  mortgagor  of  an  otherwise  non-recourse  loan,  the
       mortgagor   becomes  personally  liable  for  the  mortgage  debt.  The
       enforceability  of  due-on-sale   clauses  has  been  the   subject  of
       legislation  or litigation  in  many  states and,  in  some cases,  the
       enforceability  of these clauses  was limited or  denied. However, with
       respect  to certain loans  the Garn-St Germain  Depository Institutions
       Act of 1982 preempts state  constitutional, statutory and case law that
       prohibits the enforcement of due-on-sale clauses and permits lenders to
       enforce these clauses in accordance with their terms subject to certain
       limited exceptions. Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus
       Supplement,  a Master  Servicer,  on  behalf of  the  Trust Fund,  will
       determine  whether  to exercise  any  right  the  Trustee may  have  as
       mortgagee  to  accelerate payment  of  any  such  Mortgage Loan  or  to
       withhold its consent to any transfer or further encumbrance in a manner
       consistent with the Servicing Standard.

            In  addition, under federal  bankruptcy laws,  due-on-sale clauses
       may not be enforceable in bankruptcy proceedings and may, under certain
       circumstances,  be eliminated in  any modified mortgage  resulting from
       such bankruptcy proceeding.

       Subordinate Financing

            Where a mortgagor  encumbers mortgaged property  with one or  more
       junior liens, the senior lender is subjected to additional risk. First,
       the  mortgagor  may  have difficulty  servicing  and  repaying multiple
       loans.  In  addition,  if  the  junior loan  permits  recourse  to  the
       mortgagor (as junior  loans often do) and  the senior loan does  not, a
       mortgagor may be more likely to repay sums due  on the junior loan than
       those  on the  senior loan.  Second,  acts of  the  senior lender  that
       prejudice the junior lender or  impair the junior lender's security may
       create a superior equity in favor of the junior lender. For example, if
       the  mortgagor and  the  senior lender  agree  to  an increase  in  the
       principal amount of or the interest rate payable on the senior loan, 
       the senior  lender may  lose its  priority to  the extent any  existing
       junior lender  is harmed  or the  mortgagor  is additionally  burdened.
       Third, if the mortgagor defaults  on the senior loan and/or any  junior
       loan or  loans, the  existence  of junior  loans and  actions taken  by
       junior lenders can  impair the security available to  the senior lender
       and can  interfere with  or delay the  taking of  action by  the senior
       lender. Moreover, the bankruptcy of a junior lender may operate to stay
       foreclosure or similar proceedings by the senior lender.

       Default Interest, Prepayment Charges and Prepayments

            Forms  of  notes  and  mortgages   used  by  lenders  may  contain
       provisions obligating the mortgagor to  pay a late charge or additional
       interest if payments are not timely made, and in some circumstances may
       provide for  prepayment  fees or  yield  maintenance penalties  if  the
       obligation  is paid prior to maturity or prohibit such prepayment for a
       specified  period. In  certain states,  there  are or  may be  specific
       limitations upon  the late charges  which a  lender may collect  from a
       mortgagor  for delinquent  payments.  Certain  states  also  limit  the
       amounts that  a lender may  collect from a  mortgagor as  an additional
       charge if the loan is prepaid. The enforceability, under the laws  of a
       number  of  states  of  provisions  providing for  prepayment  fees  or
       penalties  upon,  or  prohibition  of,  an  involuntary  prepayment  is
       unclear, and  no assurance can be given that,  at the time a Prepayment
       Premium is required to be made on a Mortgage Loan in connection with an
       involuntary prepayment,  the obligation  to make  such payment, or  the
       provisions  of  any   such  prohibition,  will  be   enforceable  under
       applicable  state  law.  The  absence  of  a restraint  on  prepayment,
       particularly  with respect  to Mortgage  Loans  having higher  Mortgage
       Rates,  may  increase  the likelihood  of  refinancing  or  other early
       retirements of the Mortgage Loans.

       Acceleration on Default

            Unless otherwise  specified in the related  prospectus Supplement,
       some of the Mortgage Loans included  in the Mortgage Pool for a  Series
       will include a "debt-acceleration" clause, which permits  the lender to
       accelerate the full debt upon a  monetary or nonmonetary default of the
       Mortgagor. The courts of all  states will enforce clauses providing for
       acceleration in  the event of  a material payment default  after giving
       effect  to any  appropriate notices.  The equity  courts of  the state,
       however, may refuse  to foreclose a mortgage  or deed of trust  when an
       acceleration of the indebtedness would  be inequitable or unjust or the
       circumstances   would    render   the    acceleration   unconscionable.
       Furthermore, in  some states, the  mortgagor may avoid  foreclosure and
       reinstate an accelerated loan by  paying only the defaulted amounts and
       the costs and attorneys' fees incurred by the lender in collecting such
       defaulted payments.

       Applicability of Usury Laws

            Title V of  the Depository Institutions Deregulation  and Monetary
       Control Act of 1980, enacted  in March 1980 ("Title V"),  provides that
       state usury limitations shall not apply to certain types of residential
       (including multifamily but  not other commercial) first  mortgage loans
       originated by certain  lenders after March 31, 1980.  A similar federal
       statute was in  effect with respect  to mortgage loans made  during the
       first  three  months of  1980.  The  statute  authorized any  state  to
       reimpose interest rate  limits by adopting, before April 1, 1983, a law
       or constitutional provision  that expressly rejects application  of the
       federal law. In  addition, even where Title  V is not so  rejected, any
       state  is authorized by the law  to adopt a provision limiting discount
       points or other  charges on mortgage loans covered  by Title V. Certain
       states have  taken action  to reimpose interest  rate limits  and/or to
       limit discount points or other charges.

            The  Depositor   has  been  advised   by  counsel  that   a  court
       interpreting Title V would  hold that residential first  mortgage loans
       that are originated  on or after January 1, 1980 are subject to federal
       preemption.  Therefore, in  a state  that has  not taken  the requisite
       action  to reject  application  of  Title V  or  to  adopt a  provision
       limiting discount points or other  charges prior to origination of such
       mortgage loans, any such limitation  under such state's usury law would
       not apply to such mortgage loans.

            In any state in  which application of Title  V has been  expressly
       rejected or  a provision limiting  discount points or other  charges is
       adopted,  no Mortgage  Loan originated  after  the date  of such  state
       action will  be eligible for inclusion in a  Trust Fund unless (i) such
       Mortgage  Loan provides  for such  interest rate,  discount  points and
       charges as  are permitted  in such  state or  (ii)  such Mortgage  Loan
       provides that the  terms thereof shall be construed  in accordance with
       the  laws of  another state  under which  such interest  rate, discount
       points and  charges would not  be usurious and the  mortgagor's counsel
       has rendered  an opinion  that such choice  of law  provision would  be
       given effect.

            Statutes differ  in their provisions  as to the consequences  of a
       usurious loan. One group of statutes requires the lender to forfeit the
       interest due above the applicable  limit or impose a specified penalty.
       Under this statutory scheme, the mortgagor 
       may cancel the  recorded mortgage or deed of trust upon paying its debt
       with lawful  interest, and the lender  may foreclose, but  only for the
       debt plus lawful interest. A second group of statutes is more severe. A
       violation of this  type of usury law results in the invalidation of the
       transaction,  thereby permitting the  mortgagor to cancel  the recorded
       mortgage or deed of trust without any payment or prohibiting the lender
       from foreclosing.

       Certain Laws and Regulations; Types of Mortgaged Properties

            The  Mortgaged Properties  will  be  subject  to  compliance  with
       various federal, state and  local statutes and regulations.  Failure to
       comply (together  with an inability  to remedy any such  failure) could
       result in material diminution in the value of a Mortgage Property which
       could, together with the possibility  of limited alternative uses for a
       particular Mortgaged Property (e.g., a  nursing or convalescent home or
       hospital), result in a failure to realize the full principal  amount of
       the related Mortgage Loan. Mortgages on Mortgaged Properties which  are
       owned  by the  Mortgagor  under  a condominium  form  of ownership  are
       subject to the declaration, by-laws  and other rules and regulations of
       the condominium association.  Mortgaged Properties which are  hotels or
       motels  may present  additional  risk  in that  hotels  and motels  are
       typically  operated  pursuant  to franchise,  management  and operating
       agreements  which  may   be  terminable  by   the  operator,  and   the
       transferability of the hotel's operating,  liquor and other licenses to
       the entity acquiring the hotel either through  purchases or foreclosure
       is  subject to  the vagaries  of local  law requirements.  In addition,
       Mortgaged Properties which  are multifamily residential  properties may
       be subject  to rent control  laws, which could  impact the future  cash
       flows of such properties.

       Americans With Disabilities Act

            Under Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and
       rules promulgated  thereunder (collectively,  the "ADA"),  in order  to
       protect individuals with  disabilities, public accommodations (such  as
       hotels, restaurants,  shopping centers,  hospitals, schools and  social
       service   center   establishments)   must  remove   architectural   and
       communication barriers  which are  structural in  nature from  existing
       places  of public accommodation to the  extent "readily achievable." In
       addition, under the ADA, alterations to a place of public accommodation
       or a commercial facility are to be made so  that, to the maximum extent
       feasible, such altered portions are readily accessible to and usable by
       disabled  individuals.  The  "readily achievable"  standard  takes into
       account, among  other factors, the financial resources  of the affected
       site,  owner,  landlord  or other  applicable  person.  In  addition to
       imposing a possible  financial burden on the Mortgagor  in its capacity
       as owner or  landlord, the ADA may  also impose such requirements  on a
       foreclosing lender  who succeeds  to the interest  of the  Mortgagor as
       owner of landlord. Furthermore, since the "readily achievable" standard
       may vary depending on the financial condition of the owner or landlord,
       a foreclosing lender who is financially more capable than the Mortgagor
       of complying with  the requirements of the  ADA may be subject  to more
       stringent requirements than those to which the Mortgagor is subject.

       Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940

            Under the terms of  the Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of
       1940, as  amended (the "Relief  Act"), a mortgagor who  enters military
       service  after  the  origination  of  such  mortgagor's  Mortgage  Loan
       (including a  mortgagor who  was in  reserve status  and  is called  to
       active duty after origination of the Mortgage Loan), may not be charged
       interest (including fees and charges) above an annual rate of 6% during
       the  period of  such mortgagor's  active  duty status,  unless a  court
       orders otherwise upon application of the lender. The Relief Act applies
       to mortgagors  who are members of  the Army, Navy,  Air Force, Marines,
       National Guard, Reserves,  Coast Guard and officers of  the U.S. Public
       Health Service assigned  to duty with the military.  Because the Relief
       Act  applies  to  mortgagors  who  enter  military  service  (including
       reservists  who are  called to  active duty)  after origination  of the
       related  Mortgage Loan, no information can be provided as to the number
       of  loans that may  be affected by  the Relief Act.  Application of the
       Relief Act would adversely affect, for an indeterminate period of time,
       the ability of  any servicer  to collect  full amounts  of interest  on
       certain of the  Mortgage Loans. Any shortfalls  in interest collections
       resulting from  the application  of the Relief  Act would  result in  a
       reduction of  the amounts distributable  to the holders of  the related
       series of Certificates, and would not be covered by advances or, unless
       otherwise  specified in the related  Prospectus Supplement, any form of
       Credit  Support provided  in  connection  with  such  Certificates.  In
       addition, the  Relief  Act imposes  limitations that  would impair  the
       ability  of the  servicer to  foreclose  on an  affected Mortgage  Loan
       during the mortgagor's period of active duty status, and, under certain
       circumstances,  during an  additional  three  month period  thereafter.
       Thus, in the event  that such a Mortgage Loan goes  into default, there
       may be delays and losses occasioned thereby.

       Forfeitures in Drug and RICO Proceedings

            Federal law provides that  property owned by persons convicted  of
            drug-related crimes  or of  criminal violations  of the  Racketeer
            Influenced  and Corrupt  Organizations  ("RICO")  statute  can  be
            seized by the government if the property was used in, or purchased
            with the proceeds  of, such crimes. Under procedures  contained in
            the Comprehensive Crime  Control Act of  1984 (the "Crime  Control
            Act"),  the  government   may  seize  the  property   even  before
            conviction. The government  must publish notice of  the forfeiture
            proceeding and may give  notice to all parties  "known to have  an
            alleged  interest in  the  property,"  including  the  holders  of
            mortgage loans.

            A lender may avoid  forfeiture of its interest in  the property if
       it establishes that: (i) its  mortgage was executed and recorded before
       commission of the crime upon which the forfeiture is based, or (ii) the
       lender  was, at  the time  of  execution of  the mortgage,  "reasonably
       without  cause to believe" that the  property was used in, or purchased
       with the proceeds of, illegal drug or RICO activities.

                       CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

            The following summary  of the anticipated material  federal income
       tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition  of Offered
       Certificates is  based on  the advice of  Sidley &  Austin or  Latham &
       Watkins or Brown & Wood  LLP or such other counsel as may  be specified
       in the  related Prospectus Supplement,  counsel to the  Depositor. This
       summary is based on laws, regulations, including  the REMIC regulations
       promulgated  by  the  Treasury  Department  (the  "REMIC Regulations"),
       rulings and  decisions now in  effect or (with respect  to regulations)
       proposed, all  of which are  subject to change either  prospectively or
       retroactively. This summary  does not  address the  federal income  tax
       consequences  of  an  investment  in  Certificates  applicable  to  all
       categories  of  investors,  some  of  which  (for  example,  banks  and
       insurance  companies)  may  be subject  to  special  rules. Prospective
       investors  should consult  their tax  advisors  regarding the  federal,
       state, local  and any other tax  consequences to them of  the purchase,
       ownership and disposition of Certificates.

       General

            The federal  income  tax consequences  to Certificateholders  will
       vary depending on whether an election  is made to treat the Trust  Fund
       relating  to a particular  Series of Certificates as  a REMIC under the
       Code. The Prospectus  Supplement for each  Series of Certificates  will
       specify whether a REMIC election will be made.

       Grantor Trust Funds

            If a  REMIC election  is not  made, Sidley  & Austin  or Latham  &
       Watkins or Brown  & Wood LLP or  Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft  or such
       other counsel as may be  specified in the related Prospectus Supplement
       will deliver its opinion that the Trust Fund will not be  classified as
       an association taxable  as a corporation and that each  such Trust Fund
       will be  classified  as a  grantor trust  under subpart  E,  Part I  of
       subchapter  J of Chapter  1 of  Subtitle A of  the Code.  In this case,
       owners of Certificates will be  treated for federal income tax purposes
       as owners of a portion of the Trust Fund's assets as described below.

       a. Single Class of Grantor Trust Certificates

            Characterization. The  Trust Fund may be created with one class of
       Grantor   Trust  Certificates.  In   this  case,  each   Grantor  Trust
       Certificateholder will be treated  as the owner of a pro rata undivided
       interest  in the  interest and  principal  portions of  the Trust  Fund
       represented by the  Grantor Trust Certificates  and will be  considered
       the equitable  owner of a  pro rata undivided  interest in each  of the
       Mortgage  Assets in the Pool.  Any amounts received  by a Grantor Trust
       Certificateholder in lieu  of amounts due with respect  to any Mortgage
       Asset because  of a default or  delinquency in payment will  be treated
       for federal income  tax purposes as  having the  same character as  the
       payments they replace.

            Each Grantor Trust Certificateholder will be required to report on
       its federal  income tax  return in accordance  with such  Grantor Trust
       Certificateholder's method  of accounting  its pro  rata  share of  the
       entire income from the Mortgage Loans in the  Trust Fund represented by
       Grantor Trust Certificates, including interest, original issue discount
       ("OID"), if any, prepayment fees, assumption fees, any  gain recognized
       upon  an assumption  and late  payment charges  received by  the Master
       Servicer.  Under  Code   Sections  162  or   212  each  Grantor   Trust
       Certificateholder  will be  entitled to  deduct its  pro rata  share of
       servicing fees, prepayment  fees, assumption fees, any  loss recognized
       upon  an assumption  and late  payment charges  retained by  the Master
       Servicer,  provided that such  amounts are reasonable  compensation for
       services rendered to  the Trust Fund. Grantor  Trust Certificateholders
       that  are individuals,  estates or  trusts will  be entitled  to deduct
       their share of expenses as itemized deductions only  to the extent such
       expenses plus all other Code Section 212 expenses exceed two percent of
       its 
       adjusted gross income. In addition,  the amount of itemized  deductions
       otherwise  allowable for  the  taxable  year  for an  individual  whose
       adjusted gross  income exceeds the applicable amount under Code Section
       68(b) (which amount will be adjusted for inflation) will be reduced  by
       the lesser of  (i) 3% of the  excess of adjusted gross  income over the
       applicable amount  and (ii)  80% of the  amount of  itemized deductions
       otherwise allowable for such taxable  year. In general, a Grantor Trust
       Certificateholder  using the cash  method of accounting  must take into
       account its pro  rata share  of income  as and deductions  as and  when
       collected  by or  paid  to  the Master  Servicer  or,  with respect  to
       original issue  discount or  certain other income  items for  which the
       Certificateholder has made an election,  as such amounts are accrued by
       the Trust Fund  on a constant interest  basis, and will be  entitled to
       claim  its pro  rata  share  of deductions  (subject  to the  foregoing
       limitations) when such amounts are paid or such Certificateholder would
       otherwise be entitled to claim such deductions had it held the Mortgage
       Assets  directly.  A  Grantor Trust Certificateholder  using an accrual
       method of  accounting must  take  into account  its pro  rata share  of
       income  as payment  becomes  due or  is  made to  the  Master Servicer,
       whichever is earlier and may deduct its pro rata share of expense items
       (subject to  the foregoing limitations)  when such amounts are  paid or
       such  Certificateholder otherwise  would  be  entitled  to  claim  such
       deductions had it  held the Mortgage Assets directly.  If the servicing
       fees  paid to  the  Master  Servicer are  deemed  to exceed  reasonable
       servicing  compensation, the amount of such  excess could be considered
       as an ownership interest retained by the Master Servicer (or any person
       to whom the Master  Servicer assigned for value all or a portion of the
       servicing fees) in a portion  of the interest payments on the  Mortgage
       Assets.  The Mortgage  Assets  would  then be  subject  to the  "coupon
       stripping" rules of the Code discussed below.

            Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement or
       otherwise provided below, as to each Series of Certificates, counsel to
       the Depositor will have advised the Depositor that:

            (i) a Grantor Trust Certificate  owned by a "domestic building and
       loan  association" within  the  meaning  of  Code  Section  7701(a)(19)
       representing principal and interest payments on Mortgage Assets will be
       considered to represent  "loans . .  . secured by  an interest in  real
       property which is  . . .  residential property" within  the meaning  of
       Code Section 7701(a)(19)(C)(v), to the  extent that the Mortgage Assets
       represented by that  Grantor Trust Certificate are of  a type described
       in such Code section;

            (ii) a Grantor Trust Certificate owned by a real estate investment
       trust representing an interest in Mortgage Assets will be considered to
       represent "real  estate  assets" within  the  meaning of  Code  Section
       856(c)(4)(A),  and interest  income  on  the  Mortgage Assets  will  be
       considered  "interest on  obligations  secured  by  mortgages  on  real
       property"  within the  meaning  of Code  Section  856(c)(3)(B), to  the
       extent  that  the Mortgage  Assets  represented by  that  Grantor Trust
       Certificate are of a type described in such Code section; and

            (iii) a Grantor Trust Certificate  owned by a REMIC will represent
       "obligation(s) . . . which (are) principally  secured by an interest in
       real property" within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(3).

            The Small  Business Job  Protection Act  of 1996, as  part of  the
       repeal of the bad debt reserve method for thrift institutions, repealed
       the application  of Code Section  593(d) to any taxable  year beginning
       after December 31, 1995.

            Stripped Bonds  and Coupons. Certain  Trust Funds  may consist  of
       Government Securities  that  constitute "stripped  bonds" or  "stripped
       coupons" as  those terms are defined in section  1286 of the Code, and,
       as  a  result,  such assets  would  be  subject  to  the stripped  bond
       provisions of the Code.  Under these rules, such Government  Securities
       are treated  as having  original issue discount  based on  the purchase
       price and  the stated redemption price at maturity of each Security. As
       such, Grantor Trust Certificateholders would be required to  include in
       income their  pro rata  share of  the original  issue discount  on each
       Government Security recognized in any given year on an economic accrual
       basis  even if  the Grantor  Trust Certificateholder  is a  cash method
       taxpayer. Accordingly, the sum of  the income includible to the Grantor
       Trust Certificateholder in any taxable year may exceed amounts actually
       received during such year.

            Premium. The  price paid  for  a Grantor  Trust  Certificate by  a
       holder will  be allocated to  such holder's undivided interest  in each
       Mortgage  Asset based  on  each Mortgage  Asset's relative  fair market
       value, so that such holder's  undivided interest in each Mortgage Asset
       will have  its own  tax basis. A  Grantor Trust  Certificateholder that
       acquires an  interest in  Mortgage Assets  at  a premium  may elect  to
       amortize such premium under a  constant interest method, provided  that
       the underlying mortgage loans with respect to such Mortgage Assets were
       originated  after September  27, 1985.  Premium  allocable to  mortgage
       loans originated  on or before  September 27, 1985 should  be allocated
       among the principal  payments on such mortgage loans  and allowed as an
       ordinary deduction  as principal  payments are  made. Amortizable  bond
       premium will be treated as an offset to interest income on such Grantor
       Trust Certificate. The basis for such Grantor Trust Certificate will be
       reduced to  the extent  that amortizable premium  is applied  to offset
       interest payments.  It is  not clear  whether  a reasonable  prepayment
       assumption   should  be  used  in  computing  amortization  of  premium
       allowable under Code Section  171. A Certificateholder that  makes this
       election for  a Mortgage Asset  or any  other debt  instrument that  is
       acquired  at a  premium will  be  deemed to  have made  an  election to
       amortize  bond  premium with  respect  to all  debt  instruments having
       amortizable bond  premium that  such Certificateholder  acquires during
       the year of the election or thereafter.

            If a  premium is  not subject to  amortization using  a reasonable
       prepayment  assumption, the  holder  of  a  Grantor  Trust  Certificate
       representing an interest in a  Mortgage Asset or Mortgage Loan acquired
       at  a  premium  should recognize  a  loss  if a  Mortgage  Loan  (or an
       underlying mortgage loan  with respect to a Mortgage  Asset) prepays in
       full,  equal to  the  difference  between the  portion  of the  prepaid
       principal amount  of such Mortgage  Loan (or underlying  mortgage loan)
       that is  allocable to the Certificate  and the portion  of the adjusted
       basis of the Certificate  that is allocable to  such Mortgage Loan  (or
       underlying mortgage  loan). If  a reasonable  prepayment assumption  is
       used  to amortize such  premium, it appears  that such a  loss would be
       available, if  at all,  only  if prepayments  have occurred  at a  rate
       faster than  the reasonable  assumed prepayment rate.  It is  not clear
       whether  any other adjustments would be required to reflect differences
       between an assumed prepayment rate and the actual rate of prepayments.

            On  December 30, 1997,  the Internal  Revenue Service  (the "IRS")
       issued  final regulations (the  "Amortizable Bond Premium Regulations")
       dealing  with amortizable  bond  premium.    These  regulations,  which
       generally are effective for  bonds issued or acquired on or after March
       2, 1998 (or, for  holders making an election for the  taxable year that
       includes March 2, 1998 or  any subsequent taxable year, shall apply  to
       bonds  held on  or  after the  first day  of  the taxable  year  of the
       election).   The Amortizable  Bond Premium Regulations  specifically do
       not  apply  to  prepayable  debt   instruments  or  any  pool  of  debt
       instruments the yield on which may  be affected by prepayments, such as
       the Trust Fund,  which are subject to  Section 1272(a)(6) of the  Code.
       Absent further guidance from the  IRS and unless otherwise specified in
       the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,  the  Trustee  will  account  for
       amortizable bond premium  in the manner  described above.   Prospective
       purchasers should consult their tax advisors regarding amortizable bond
       premium and the Amortizable Bond Premium Regulations.

            Original Issue Discount. The  IRS has stated in  published rulings
       that,  in circumstances similar to  those described herein, the special
       rules  of  the  Code  relating   to  original  issue  discount  ("OID")
       (currently Code  Sections  1271 through  1273  and 1275)  and  Treasury
       regulations issued on  January 27, 1994, under such  Sections (the "OID
       Regulations"),    will    be   applicable    to    a    Grantor   Trust
       Certificateholder's  interest in  those  Mortgage  Assets  meeting  the
       conditions  necessary  for  these sections  to  apply.  Rules regarding
       periodic  inclusion  of  OID  income  are  applicable  to mortgages  of
       corporations originated after  May 27, 1969, mortgages  of noncorporate
       mortgagors (other than  individuals) originated after July 1, 1982, and
       mortgages of individuals originated after March 2, 1984. Such OID could
       arise by the financing of points or other charges by the  originator of
       the  mortgages  in  an  amount  greater than  a  statutory  de  minimis
       exception to  the extent that  the points are not  currently deductible
       under applicable  Code provisions or  are not for services  provided by
       the lender. OID generally must be reported as ordinary gross income  as
       it accrues under a constant interest method. See "--Multiple Classes of
       Grantor Trust Certificates--Accrual of Original Issue Discount" below.

            Market Discount. A  Grantor Trust Certificateholder  that acquires
       an undivided  interest in Mortgage Assets may  be subject to the market
       discount  rules of  Code Sections  1276 through 1278  to the  extent an
       undivided  interest in  a Mortgage  Asset  is considered  to have  been
       purchased  at a  "market  discount." Generally,  the  amount of  market
       discount is equal to the excess of  the portion of the principal amount
       of such  Mortgage Asset allocable  to such holder's  undivided interest
       over such  holder's tax  basis in such  interest. Market  discount with
       respect to a Grantor Trust Certificate will be considered to be zero if
       the  amount allocable  to the  Grantor Trust  Certificate is  less than
       0.25%  of the Grantor  Trust Certificate's  stated redemption  price at
       maturity  multiplied by the  weighted average maturity  remaining after
       the  date of  purchase. Treasury  regulations  implementing the  market
       discount rules  have not yet  been issued; therefore,  investors should
       consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of these rules
       and the advisability of making any  of the elections allowed under Code
       Sections 1276 through 1278.

            The Code provides that any  principal payment (whether a scheduled
       payment  or a  prepayment)  or  any gain  on  disposition of  a  market
       discount bond acquired by  the taxpayer after October 22, 1986 shall be
       treated as ordinary  income to the extent  that it does not  exceed the
       accrued  market discount at  the time  of such  payment. The  amount of
       accrued market discount for  purposes of determining the  tax treatment
       of subsequent principal payments or dispositions of the market discount
       bond is to be reduced by the amount so treated as ordinary income.

            The Code also  grants the Treasury  Department authority to  issue
            regulations  providing  for  the  computation  of  accrued  market
            discount on debt instruments, the principal of which is payable in
            more than one installment.  While the Treasury Department  has not
            yet  issued   regulations,  rules   described   in  the   relevant
            legislative history will apply. Under those rules, the holder of a
            market discount bond may elect to accrue market discount either on
            the basis of a constant interest  rate or according to one of  the
            following methods. If a Grantor  Trust Certificate is issued  with
            OID, the amount of market discount that accrues during any accrual
            period would  be equal to  the product of (i)  the total remaining
            market discount and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the
            OID accruing during the period and the denominator of which is the
            total remaining  OID at the  beginning of the accrual  period. For
            Grantor  Trust  Certificates  issued without  OID,  the  amount of
            market  discount that  accrues during  a  period is  equal to  the
            product  of (i)  the total  remaining market  discount and  (ii) a
            fraction, the numerator of which  is the amount of stated interest
            paid during the accrual period and the denominator of which is the
            total  amount of  stated  interest  remaining to  be  paid at  the
            beginning  of  the  accrual period.  For  purposes  of calculating
            market discount  under any  of the  above methods in  the case  of
            instruments  (such as the Grantor Trust Certificates) that provide
            for payments that  may be accelerated by reason  of prepayments of
            other obligations  securing such instruments,  the same prepayment
            assumption  applicable  to  calculating the  accrual  of  OID will
            apply.  Because  the  regulations described  above  have  not been
            issued, it is impossible to predict what  effect those regulations
            might have  on the  tax treatment of  a Grantor  Trust Certificate
            purchased at a discount or premium in the secondary market.

            A  holder who  acquired a  Grantor Trust  Certificate at  a market
       discount also  may be  required  to defer  a  portion of  its  interest
       deductions  for the  taxable  year  attributable  to  any  indebtedness
       incurred  or  continued   to  purchase  or  carry  such  Grantor  Trust
       Certificate purchased with market discount.  For these purposes, the de
       minimis rule  referred  to above  applies. Any  such deferred  interest
       expense would not  exceed the market discount that  accrues during such
       taxable year and  is, in general, allowed as a deduction not later than
       the year in which such market discount is includible in income. If such
       holder  elects to  include market  discount in  income currently  as it
       accrues on all  market discount instruments acquired by  such holder in
       that taxable year  or thereafter, the interest deferral  rule described
       above will not apply.

            Election to Treat All Interest as OID. The  OID Regulations permit
       a  Certificateholder  to   elect  to  accrue  all   interest,  discount
       (including de minimis market or original issue discount) and premium in
       income as interest,  based on a constant yield  method for Certificates
       acquired on or after April 4, 1994. If such an election were to be made
       with respect to  a Grantor Trust Certificate with  market discount, the
       Certificateholder would be  deemed to have made an  election to include
       in  income currently  market discount  with respect  to all  other debt
       instruments having market discount that such Certificateholder acquires
       during   the  year  of   the  election  or   thereafter.  Similarly,  a
       Certificateholder that makes  this election for  a Certificate that  is
       acquired at  a  premium will  be deemed  to have  made  an election  to
       amortize  bond premium  with  respect to  all  debt instruments  having
       amortizable  bond premium that such Certificateholder owns or acquires.
       See  "--Premium" herein. The election to  accrue interest, discount and
       premium on  a constant  yield method with  respect to a  Certificate is
       irrevocable without consent of the IRS.

            Anti-Abuse  Rule. The  IRS  can  apply or  depart  from  the rules
       contained in the OID Regulations as necessary or appropriate to achieve
       a reasonable result where a principal purpose in structuring a Mortgage
       Asset,  Mortgage Loan  or  Grantor Trust  Certificate  or applying  the
       otherwise applicable rules is to  achieve a result that is unreasonable
       in light  of the purposes  of the applicable statutes  (which generally
       are intended to achieve the clear reflection of income for both issuers
       and holders of debt instruments).

       b. Multiple Classes of Grantor Trust Certificates

            1. Stripped Bonds and Stripped Coupons

            Pursuant to Code Section 1286,  the separation of ownership of the
       right to receive  some or all of the interest payments on an obligation
       from  ownership of the  right to receive  some or all  of the principal
       payments results  in the creation  of "stripped bonds" with  respect to
       principal  payments and  "stripped coupons"  with  respect to  interest
       payments. For purposes of Code Sections 1271 through 1288, Code Section
       1286  treats  a stripped  bond or  a stripped  coupon as  an obligation
       issued on the date  that such stripped interest is created.  If a Trust
       Fund is  created with  two classes of  Grantor Trust  Certificates, one
       class  of  Grantor  Trust  Certificates  may  represent  the  right  to
       principal and interest, or  principal only, on all or a  portion of the
       Mortgage  Assets (the "Stripped  Bond Certificates"), while  the second
       class of Grantor Trust Certificates may represent the  right to some or
       all   of  the   interest  on   such  portion   (the   "Stripped  Coupon
       Certificates").

            Servicing fees  in excess  of reasonable  servicing fees  ("excess
            servicing") will be treated under  the stripped bond rules. If the
            excess  servicing fee  is less  than  100 basis  points (i.e.,  1%
            interest  on  the   Mortgage  Asset  principal  balance)   or  the
            Certificates  are  initially  sold  with  a  de  minimis  discount
            (assuming  no  prepayment  assumption  is  required),  any  non-de
            minimis  discount  arising  from  a  subsequent  transfer  of  the
            Certificates should be treated as market discount. The IRS appears
            to  require that  reasonable  servicing fees  be  calculated on  a
            Mortgage Asset by Mortgage Asset basis, which could result in some
            Mortgage Assets being treated as having more than 100 basis points
            of  interest  stripped  off.  See "--Non-REMIC  Certificates"  and
            "Multiple  Classes of  Grantor Trust  Certificates--Stripped Bonds
            and Stripped Coupons" herein.

            Although not entirely clear, a Stripped Bond Certificate generally
       should be treated as  an interest in Mortgage Assets issued  on the day
       such Certificate  is purchased  for purposes  of  calculating any  OID.
       Generally, if  the discount  on a Mortgage  Asset is  larger than  a de
       minimis  amount  (as  calculated  for  purposes of  the  OID  rules)  a
       purchaser of such a Certificate will be required to accrue the discount
       under the  OID rules  of the Code.  See "--Non-REMIC  Certificates" and
       "--Single Class of Grantor Trust Certificates--Original Issue Discount"
       herein. However,  a purchaser  of a Stripped  Bond Certificate  will be
       required to account for any  discount on the Mortgage Assets  as market
       discount rather than OID  if either (i) the amount of  OID with respect
       to the Mortgage Assets is treated as zero under the OID de minimis rule
       when the Certificate was stripped or (ii) no more than 100 basis points
       (including  any  amount  of  servicing  fees in  excess  of  reasonable
       servicing fees)  is stripped off  of the Trust Fund's  Mortgage Assets.
       Pursuant  to  Revenue  Procedure  91-49,  issued  on  August  8,  1991,
       purchasers of Stripped  Bond Certificates using an  inconsistent method
       of accounting  must change their  method of accounting and  request the
       consent  of the  IRS to  the  change in  their accounting  method  on a
       statement attached to their first  timely tax return filed after August
       8, 1991.

            The  precise  tax  treatment of  Stripped  Coupon  Certificates is
       substantially uncertain.  The Code could  be read literally  to require
       that  OID computations  be made  for  each payment  from each  Mortgage
       Asset. Unless otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement,
       all  payments  from  a  Mortgage Asset  underlying  a  Stripped  Coupon
       Certificate will be treated as a single  installment obligation subject
       to the  OID rules of the  Code, in which  case, all payments  from such
       Mortgage  Asset would  be  included  in  the  Mortgage  Asset's  stated
       redemption price at maturity for purposes of calculating income on such
       Certificate under the OID rules of the Code.

            It is unclear under what  circumstances, if any, the prepayment of
       Mortgage  Assets will give rise  to a loss to  the holder of a Stripped
       Bond  Certificate  purchased   at  a  premium  or   a  Stripped  Coupon
       Certificate. If  such  Certificate is  treated as  a single  instrument
       (rather than an interest in discrete mortgage loans) and  the effect of
       prepayments is  taken into account  in computing yield with  respect to
       such  Grantor  Trust Certificate,  it  appears  that  no loss  will  be
       available as a result  of any particular prepayment  unless prepayments
       occur at a rate sufficiently faster than the assumed prepayment rate so
       that the Certificateholder will not recover its investment. However, if
       such Certificate is treated as an interest in discrete Mortgage Assets,
       or if no prepayment assumption is  used, then when a Mortgage Asset  is
       prepaid, the holder of such Certificate  should be able to recognize  a
       loss  equal  to  the  portion  of the  adjusted  issue  price  of  such
       Certificate that is allocable to such Mortgage Asset.

            Holders  of   Stripped  Bond  Certificates   and  Stripped  Coupon
       Certificates are urged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding
       the proper  treatment  of these  Certificates  for federal  income  tax
       purposes.

            Treatment  of   Certain  Owners. Several  Code   sections  provide
       beneficial  treatment  to  certain taxpayers  that  invest  in Mortgage
       Assets  of the type that make up the  Trust Fund. With respect to these
       Code sections, no specific legal authority exists regarding whether the
       character of the  Grantor Trust  Certificates, for  federal income  tax
       purposes,  will be the same as  that of the underlying Mortgage Assets.
       While  Code Section  1286 treats  a stripped  obligation as  a separate
       obligation for  purposes of the  Code provisions addressing OID,  it is
       not  clear whether  such characterization  would apply  with regard  to
       these other Code  sections. Although the issue is not  free from doubt,
       each class of Grantor Trust Certificates, unless otherwise specified in
       the  related Prospectus Supplement,  should be considered  to represent
       "real estate  assets" within the  meaning of Code  Section 856(c)(4)(A)
       and "loans . . . secured by, an interest in real property  which is . .
       .  residential  real  property"  within  the  meaning  of Code  Section
       7701(a)(19)(C)(v), and  interest income  attributable to  Grantor Trust
       Certificates should be considered to represent "interest on obligations
       secured  by mortgages  on real  property"  within the  meaning of  Code
       Section  856(c)(3)(B),  provided  that  in  each  case  the  underlying
       Mortgage Assets and  interest on such Mortgage Assets  qualify for such
       treatment.  Prospective purchasers to which such characterization of an
       investment in  Certificates is  material should  consult their  own tax
       advisors   regarding  the   characterization  of   the  Grantor   Trust
       Certificates and the income therefrom. Grantor Trust 

       Certificates  will  be "obligation(s)  .  . .  which  (are) principally
       secured by an  interest in real  property" within  the meaning of  Code
       Section 860G(a)(3)(A).

            2. Grantor Trust  Certificates  Representing  Interests  in  Loans
       Other Than ARM Loans

            The original  issue discount rules  of Code Sections  1271 through
       1275  will be  applicable to  a  Certificateholder's interest  in those
       Mortgage Assets as to which the conditions for the application of those
       sections are met. Rules regarding  periodic inclusion of original issue
       discount   in  income  are  applicable  to  mortgages  of  corporations
       originated after  May 27,  1969, mortgages  of noncorporate  mortgagors
       (other than individuals) originated  after July 1, 1982, and  mortgages
       of  individuals  originated   after  March  2,  1984.   Under  the  OID
       Regulations, such original issue  discount could arise by  the charging
       of points by the originator of  the mortgage in an amount greater  than
       the statutory de minimis exception,  including a payment of points that
       is  currently  deductible   by  the  borrower  under   applicable  Code
       provisions, or under certain circumstances, by the presence of "teaser"
       rates on  the Mortgage  Assets. OID on  each Grantor  Trust Certificate
       must be included in the owner's ordinary  income for federal income tax
       purposes as it  accrues, in accordance with a  constant interest method
       that  takes into  account the  compounding of  interest, in  advance of
       receipt of  the cash  attributable to  such income. The  amount of  OID
       required to be included  in an owner's income in any  taxable year with
       respect  to a  Grantor  Trust Certificate  representing an  interest in
       Mortgage Assets  other than  Mortgage Assets with  interest rates  that
       adjust periodically ("ARM  Loans") likely will be computed as described
       below  under  "--Accrual  of Original  Issue  Discount."  The following
       discussion is based in part  on the OID Regulations and in  part on the
       provisions of the  Tax Reform  Act of  1986 (the "1986  Act"). The  OID
       Regulations generally are effective  for debt instruments issued on  or
       after April  4, 1994, but may be relied  upon as authority with respect
       to debt instruments,  such as  the Grantor  Trust Certificates,  issued
       after December  21, 1992. Alternatively, proposed  Treasury regulations
       issued  December  21,  1992  may  be  treated  as  authority  for  debt
       instruments issued after December 21, 1992  and prior to April 4, 1994,
       and  proposed Treasury  regulations  issued  in 1986  and  1991 may  be
       treated as authority for instruments  issued before December 21,  1992.
       In applying these dates,  the issue date of the  Mortgage Assets should
       be  used, or,  in the  case of  Stripped Bond Certificates  or Stripped
       Coupon  Certificates,  the  date such  Certificates  are  acquired. The
       holder  of a  Certificate should  be aware,  however, that  neither the
       proposed OID  Regulations nor  the OID  Regulations adequately  address
       certain issues relevant to prepayable securities.

            Under the Code,  the Mortgage Assets underlying  the Grantor Trust
       Certificate will be treated as having been issued on the date they were
       originated with an amount  of OID equal to the excess  of such Mortgage
       Asset's stated redemption  price at maturity over its  issue price. The
       issue  price of a  Mortgage Asset is  generally the amount  lent to the
       mortgagee,  which may  be adjusted  to take  into account  certain loan
       origination fees. The stated redemption price at maturity of a Mortgage
       Asset  is the  sum of all  payments to  be made on  such Mortgage Asset
       other  than  payments that  are  treated as  qualified  stated interest
       payments. The accrual of this  OID, as described below under "--Accrual
       of  Original Issue Discount,"  will, unless otherwise  specified in the
       related Prospectus Supplement,  utilize the original yield  to maturity
       of  the Grantor  Trust  Certificate calculated  based  on a  reasonable
       assumed prepayment rate  for the mortgage loans  underlying the Grantor
       Trust Certificates (the "Prepayment  Assumption") on the issue  date of
       such Grantor Trust Certificate, and  will take into account events that
       occur  during the calculation period. The Prepayment Assumption will be
       determined in  the manner prescribed  by regulations that have  not yet
       been  issued.  In  the  absence of  such  regulations,  the  Prepayment
       Assumption  used will  be the  prepayment  assumption that  is used  in
       determining the offering  price of such Certificate.  No representation
       is made that  any Certificate will prepay at  the Prepayment Assumption
       or  at any other rate. The prepayment  assumption contained in the Code
       literally only applies to debt instruments collateralized by other debt
       instruments that are subject to prepayment rather than direct ownership
       interests in such debt instruments, such as the Certificates represent.
       However, no other legal authority  provides guidance with regard to the
       proper  method for  accruing OID  on  obligations that  are subject  to
       prepayment, and, until further guidance is issued,  the Master Servicer
       intends to calculate and report OID under the method described below.

            Accrual  of Original  Issue Discount. Generally,  the  owner of  a
       Grantor Trust Certificate must include  in gross income the sum  of the
       "daily portions," as defined  below, of the OID  on such Grantor  Trust
       Certificate for each  day on which it owns  such Certificate, including
       the date of purchase but excluding the date of disposition. In the case
       of an original  owner, the daily portions  of OID with respect  to each
       component  generally will  be determined  as  set forth  under the  OID
       Regulations. A calculation will be made by  the Master Servicer or such
       other entity  specified in  the  related Prospectus  Supplement of  the
       portion of  OID that  accrues during  each  successive monthly  accrual
       period (or shorter period from the date of original issue) that ends on
       the day in the  calendar year corresponding to each of the Distribution
       Dates on the  Grantor Trust Certificates (or the day prior to each such
       date).  This will  be done,  in  the case  of each  full  month accrual
       period,  by (i) adding (a) the present value  at the end of the accrual
       period  (determined by using as a discount factor the original yield to
       maturity of the  respective component under the  Prepayment Assumption)
       of  all  remaining  payments  to  be  received  under  the   Prepayment
       Assumption 
       on the respective component and (b) any payments included in the stated
       redemption  price at maturity received during  such accrual period, and
       (ii)  subtracting from  that total  the "adjusted  issue price"  of the
       respective  component  at the  beginning  of such  accrual  period. The
       adjusted issue price of a Grantor Trust Certificate at the beginning of
       the first  accrual period is its issue  price; the adjusted issue price
       of a Grantor Trust Certificate at the beginning of a subsequent accrual
       period is the  adjusted issue price at the beginning of the immediately
       preceding  accrual period  plus the  amount  of OID  allocable to  that
       accrual  period  reduced by  the  amount of  any payment  other  than a
       payment of qualified  stated interest made at the end of or during that
       accrual period. The  OID accruing during such accrual  period will then
       be divided by the number of days  in the period to determine the  daily
       portion of OID for each  day in the period. With respect to  an initial
       accrual period  shorter than a  full monthly accrual period,  the daily
       portions  of  OID  must  be  determined  according  to  an  appropriate
       allocation under any reasonable method.

            Original issue  discount generally  must be  reported as  ordinary
       gross income as it accrues under  a constant interest method that takes
       into account the compounding of interest as it accrues rather than when
       received. However, the  amount of original issue discount includible in
       the income of  a holder of an obligation is reduced when the obligation
       is acquired after its initial issuance at a price greater than  the sum
       of the original  issue price and the previously  accrued original issue
       discount,  less prior  payments  of  principal.  Accordingly,  if  such
       Mortgage  Assets acquired  by a  Certificateholder are  purchased at  a
       price equal to the then unpaid principal amount of such Mortgage Asset,
       no  original issue discount attributable to  the difference between the
       issue price  and the original  principal amount of such  Mortgage Asset
       (i.e. points) will  be includible by such holder.  Other original issue
       discount on  the Mortgage  Assets (e.g., that  arising from  a "teaser"
       rate) would still need to be accrued.

            3. Grantor Trust Certificates Representing Interests in ARM Loans

            The OID Regulations do  not address the treatment  of instruments,
       such as  the Grantor Trust  Certificates, which represent  interests in
       ARM  Loans. Additionally,  the IRS  has not  issued guidance  under the
       Code's coupon stripping rules with  respect to such instruments. In the
       absence  of any  authority,  the  Master Servicer  will  report OID  on
       Grantor Trust  Certificates attributable  to ARM  Loans ("Stripped  ARM
       Obligations") to holders in a manner it believes is consistent with the
       rules described above  under the heading "--Grantor  Trust Certificates
       Representing Interests in Loans Other Than ARM Loans" and with the  OID
       Regulations.  In  general,  application  of  these  rules  may  require
       inclusion of  income on  a Stripped  ARM Obligation  in advance of  the
       receipt of cash  attributable to such income. Further,  the addition of
       interest  deferred  by  reason  of  negative   amortization  ("Deferred
       Interest")  to the  principal balance  of an  ARM Loan may  require the
       inclusion  of  such   amount  in  the  income  of   the  Grantor  Trust
       Certificateholder when  such amount accrues. Furthermore,  the addition
       of  Deferred  Interest  to the  Grantor  Trust  Certificate's principal
       balance  will result  in  additional  income  (including  possibly  OID
       income) to the Grantor Trust  Certificateholder over the remaining life
       of such Grantor Trust Certificates.

            Because  the treatment of  Stripped ARM Obligations  is uncertain,
       investors are urged to consult  their tax advisors regarding how income
       will be includible with respect to such Certificates.

       c. Sale or Exchange of a Grantor Trust Certificate

            Sale  or exchange  of a  Grantor  Trust Certificate  prior to  its
       maturity will result in  gain or loss equal to the  difference, if any,
       between  the amount  received and  the  owner's adjusted  basis in  the
       Grantor Trust Certificate. Such adjusted basis generally will equal the
       seller's purchase price for the Grantor Trust Certificate, increased by
       the OID  included  in the  seller's gross  income with  respect to  the
       Grantor  Trust Certificate, and  reduced by  principal payments  on the
       Grantor Trust Certificate previously received by the seller. Such  gain
       or  loss will be capital gain  or loss to an  owner for which a Grantor
       Trust  Certificate is  a "capital  asset"  within the  meaning of  Code
       Section 1221, and will be  long-term or short-term depending on whether
       the Grantor Trust Certificate has  been owned for the long-term capital
       gain holding period (currently more than one year). Lower capital gains
       rates generally  will  apply  to individuals  who  hold  Grantor  Trust
       Certificates for more than 18 months.

            It  is possible that  capital gain realized  by holders  of one or
       more  classes of  Grantor Trust  Certificates could be  considered gain
       realized  upon  the  disposition  of   property  that  was  part  of  a
       "conversion transaction."   A sale of a Grantor  Trust Certificate will
       be  part  of a  conversion  transaction  if  substantially all  of  the
       holder's  expected return  is attributable  to  the time  value of  the
       holder's net  investment, and  (i) the holder  entered the  contract to
       sell the Grantor Trust Certificate substantially contemporaneously with
       acquiring  the  Grantor  Trust  Certificate,  (ii)  the  Grantor  Trust
       Certificate is part of a  straddle, (iii) the Grantor Trust Certificate
       is  marketed  or  sold  as   producing  capital  gain,  or  (iv)  other
       transactions to be specified in Treasury 
       regulations that  have  not yet  been issued.   If  the  sale or  other
       disposition  of a  Grantor Trust  Certificate is  part of  a conversion
       transaction, all or any  portion of the gain realized upon  the sale or
       other  disposition  would be  treated  as  ordinary income  instead  of
       capital gain.

            Grantor  Trust Certificates  will be  "evidences of  indebtedness"
       within the  meaning of  Code Section  582(c)(1), so  that gain or  loss
       recognized from the sale of a Grantor Trust Certificate by a bank or  a
       thrift institution  to which  such section applies  will be  treated as
       ordinary income or loss.

       d. Non-U.S. Persons

            Generally,   to  the  extent  that  a  Grantor  Trust  Certificate
       evidences ownership in underlying  Mortgage Assets that were issued  on
       or before July 18, 1984, interest or OID paid by the person required to
       withhold tax under  Code Section 1441 or  1442 to (i) an  owner that is
       not  a  U.S.  Person  (as  defined  below)  or  (ii)  a  Grantor  Trust
       Certificateholder holding  on behalf  of an  owner that  is not  a U.S.
       Person will be subject to federal income tax, collected by withholding,
       at a rate of 30% or such lower rate as may be  provided for interest by
       an applicable tax  treaty, unless such income  is effectively connected
       with  a  U.S. trade  or  business of  such owner  or  beneficial owner.
       Accrued OID recognized by  the owner on the sale or  exchange of such a
       Grantor Trust Certificate also will be subject to federal income tax at
       the  same  rate. Generally,  such  payments  would  not be  subject  to
       withholding to the  extent that a  Grantor Trust Certificate  evidences
       ownership in  Mortgage Assets  issued after July  18, 1984,  by natural
       persons if such  Grantor Trust Certificateholder complies  with certain
       identification requirements (including delivery  of a statement, signed
       by  the Grantor  Trust Certificateholder  under  penalties of  perjury,
       certifying that  such  Grantor Trust  Certificateholder is  not a  U.S.
       Person  and  providing the  name  and  address  of such  Grantor  Trust
       Certificateholder).  To   the   extent  payments   to   Grantor   Trust
       Certificateholders   that  are  not   U.S.  Persons  are   payments  of
       "contingent  interest" on  the  underlying  Mortgage  Assets,  or  such
       Grantor  Trust  Certificateholder  is   ineligible  for  the  exemption
       described in the preceding sentence, the 30% withholding tax will apply
       unless  such  withholding   taxes  are  reduced  or  eliminated  by  an
       applicable  tax  treaty  and  such holder  meets  the  eligibility  and
       certification requirements  necessary to  obtain the  benefits of  such
       treaty.  Additional restrictions  apply to  Mortgage  Assets where  the
       mortgagor is not a natural person in order to qualify for the exemption
       from withholding. If capital gain  derived from the sale, retirement or
       other  disposition  of  a  Grantor  Trust  Certificate  is  effectively
       connected  with   a  U.S.  trade   or  business  of  a   Grantor  Trust
       Certificateholder that  is not  a U.S.  Person, such  Certificateholder
       will be taxed on  the net gain under the graduated  U.S. federal income
       tax  rates applicable  to U.S.  Persons (and,  with respect  to Grantor
       Trust Certificates  held by or on  behalf of corporations, also  may be
       subject to branch profits tax). In addition, if the Trust Fund acquires
       a  United States  real property  interest through foreclosure,  deed in
       lieu of foreclosure or otherwise on a Mortgage Asset secured by such an
       interest (which for this purpose  includes real property located in the
       United    States   and   the   Virgin   Islands),   a   Grantor   Trust
       Certificateholder that is not a U.S. Person will potentially be subject
       to federal  income tax on  any gain attributable to  such real property
       interest  that is  allocable to  such holder.  Non-U.S. Persons  should
       consult their  tax advisors  regarding the application  to them  of the
       foregoing rules.

            As used herein, a "U.S. Person" means a citizen or resident of the
       United States, a corporation or a partnership organized in or under the
       laws of the  United States or any political  subdivision thereof (other
       than a  partnership that  is not  treated as  a U.S.  Person under  any
       applicable Treasury regulations),  an estate the  income of which  from
       sources outside  the United  States is includible  in gross  income for
       federal income  tax  purposes regardless  of  its connection  with  the
       conduct of a trade or business within the United States or a trust if a
       court within the United States  is able to exercise primary supervision
       of the administration  of the trust and  one or more U.S.  Persons have
       the authority  to control all substantial  decisions of the trust.   In
       addition, certain trusts treated as U.S. Persons before August 20, 1996
       may  elect to  continue to  be  so treated  to the  extent  provided in
       regulations.

       e. Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

            The  Master Servicer  will  furnish or  make  available, within  a
       reasonable time after the end of each calendar year, to each person who
       was a Certificateholder at any  time during such year, such information
       as may be deemed necessary or desirable to assist Certificateholders in
       preparing their  federal income  tax returns, or  to enable  holders to
       make  such  information  available to  beneficial  owners  or financial
       intermediaries that  hold such  Certificates as  nominees on behalf  of
       beneficial   owners.  If   a   holder,  beneficial   owner,   financial
       intermediary or other recipient of a payment  on behalf of a beneficial
       owner fails to supply a  certified taxpayer identification number or if
       the  Secretary of  the Treasury  determines  that such  person has  not
       reported all interest and dividend  income required to be shown  on its
       federal income tax return, 31%  backup withholding may be required with
       respect  to any  payments  to  registered owners  who  are not  "exempt
       recipients."  In addition, upon the sale of a Grantor Trust Certificate
       to (or through)  a broker, the broker  must withhold 31% of  the entire
       purchase 
       price, unless  either (i) the  broker determines  that the seller  is a
       corporation or other exempt recipient,  or (ii) the seller provides, in
       the required manner,  certain identifying information and,  in the case
       of a non-U.S. Person, certifies that such seller is a Non-U.S.  Person,
       and certain  other  conditions are  met.   Such as  sale  must also  be
       reported  by  the  broker to  the  IRS,  unless either  (a)  the broker
       determines that  the seller is  an exempt  recipient or (b)  the seller
       certifies its non-U.S. Person status  (and certain other conditions are
       met).  Certification of the  registered owner's non-U.S. Person  status
       normally  would be  made on  IRS Form W-8  under penalties  of perjury,
       although  in  certain  cases  it   may  be  possible  to  submit  other
       documentary   evidence.  Any  amounts  deducted  and  withheld  from  a
       distribution to a recipient  would be allowed as a credit  against such
       recipient's federal income tax liability.

            On October 6, 1997, the Treasury Department issued new regulations
       (the  "New  Regulations")  which  make  certain  modifications  to  the
       withholding,  backup   withholding  and  information   reporting  rules
       described above.   The New Regulations  attempt to unify  certification
       requirements and modify reliance  standards.  The New Regulations  will
       generally  be effective  for  payments made  after  December 31,  1998,
       subject to certain transition  rules.  Prospective investors  are urged
       to consult their own tax advisors regarding the New Regulations.

       REMICs

            The Trust Fund relating to  a Series of Certificates may  elect to
       be  treated as  a  REMIC.  Qualification as  a  REMIC requires  ongoing
       compliance with certain conditions.  Although a REMIC is not  generally
       subject to  federal income tax  (see, however "--Taxation of  Owners of
       REMIC Residual Certificates" and "--Prohibited Transactions" below), if
       a Trust Fund  with respect to which a  REMIC election is made  fails to
       comply  with one or  more of the  ongoing requirements of  the Code for
       REMIC  status during any taxable  year, including the implementation of
       restrictions on the purchase and  transfer of the residual interests in
       a REMIC as described below under "Taxation of Owners  of REMIC Residual
       Certificates," the Code provides that a Trust Fund will not be  treated
       as a REMIC for such year and thereafter. In that event, such entity may
       be taxable as a separate corporation, and the related Certificates (the
       "REMIC Certificates") may  not be accorded the status or  given the tax
       treatment  described  below.  While the  Code  authorizes  the Treasury
       Department to  issue regulations  providing relief in  the event  of an
       inadvertent termination of  the status of a  trust fund as a  REMIC, no
       such regulations  have been issued.  Any such relief, moreover,  may be
       accompanied by sanctions, such as the  imposition of a corporate tax on
       all  or a portion  of the REMIC's  income for  the period in  which the
       requirements for  such status are  not satisfied. With respect  to each
       Trust Fund  that  elects REMIC  status,  Sidley &  Austin  or Latham  &
       Watkins or Brown & Wood LLP or or Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft or such
       other counsel as may be  specified in the related Prospectus Supplement
       will  deliver its  opinion generally  to  the effect  that, under  then
       existing law and assuming compliance with all provisions of the related
       Pooling  and Servicing  Agreement, such  Trust Fund  will qualify  as a
       REMIC, and  the related Certificates  will be considered to  be regular
       interests  ("REMIC Regular Certificates")  or a sole  class of residual
       interests ("REMIC  Residual Certificates")  in the  REMIC. The  related
       Prospectus Supplement  for each  Series of  Certificates will  indicate
       whether the  Trust Fund will make a REMIC  election and whether a class
       of Certificates will be  treated as a regular  or residual interest  in
       the REMIC.

            A  "qualified mortgage"  for  REMIC  purposes  is  any  obligation
       (including certificates of participation in  such an obligation and any
       "regular interest" in another REMIC)  that is principally secured by an
       interest in real property and that is transferred to the REMIC within a
       prescribed time period in exchange for regular or residual interests in
       the REMIC.

            In general, with respect to  each Series of Certificates for which
       a REMIC election is made, (i) Certificates held by a thrift institution
       taxed as  a "domestic  building and  loan association" will  constitute
       assets described in Code Section 7701(a)(19)(C); (ii) Certificates held
       by a real estate investment  trust will constitute "real estate assets"
       within the meaning of Code  Section 856(c)(4)(A); and (iii) interest on
       Certificates held by a real  estate investment trust will be considered
       "interest on obligations secured by  mortgages on real property" within
       the  meaning  of Code  Section 856(c)(3)(B).  If less  than 95%  of the
       REMIC's assets  are assets qualifying  under any of the  foregoing Code
       sections, the Certificates will be qualifying assets only to the extent
       that the REMIC's assets are qualifying assets.

            Tiered REMIC  Structures. For certain Series  of Certificates, two
       or more separate elections may be made to  treat designated portions of
       the related  Trust Fund as REMICs (respectively, the "Subsidiary REMIC"
       and  the "Master  REMIC") for  federal  income tax  purposes. Upon  the
       issuance of any  such Series of Certificates, Sidley & Austin or Latham
       & Watkins or Brown & Wood LLP  or Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft or such
       other counsel as may be specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
       counsel to  the Depositor,  will deliver its  opinion generally  to the
       effect that,  assuming compliance  with all  provisions of  the related
       Agreement, the Master REMIC as  well as any Subsidiary REMIC  will each
       qualify as a  REMIC, and  the REMIC Certificates  issued by the  Master
       REMIC and the Subsidiary REMIC or REMICs, respectively, will be 
       considered to evidence  ownership of regular interests  ("REMIC Regular
       Certificates") or residual interests ("REMIC Residual Certificates") in
       the related REMIC within the meaning of the REMIC provisions.

            Other than the residual interest in a Subsidiary REMIC, only REMIC
       Certificates issued by the Master  REMIC will be offered hereunder. The
       Subsidiary REMIC or REMICs and the Master  REMIC will be treated as one
       REMIC solely for purposes of determining whether the REMIC Certificates
       will  be  (i)  "real  estate  assets" within  the  meaning  of  Section
       856(c)(4)(A) of  the Code; (ii) "loans  secured by an interest  in real
       property"  under Section 7701(a)(19)(C) of the  Code; and (iii) whether
       the  income  on such  Certificates  is  interest  described in  Section
       856(c)(3)(B) of the Code.

       a.  Taxation of Owners of REMIC Regular Certificates

            General. Except  as otherwise  stated  in  this discussion,  REMIC
       Regular Certificates will be treated for federal income tax purposes as
       debt instruments  issued by the REMIC and not as ownership interests in
       the  REMIC   or  its  assets.   Moreover,  holders  of   REMIC  Regular
       Certificates  that  otherwise report  income  under  a  cash method  of
       accounting  will be  required to  report income  with respect  to REMIC
       Regular Certificates under an accrual method.

            Original   Issue   Discount   and   Premium. The   REMIC   Regular
       Certificates may be issued with OID. Generally, such OID,  if any, will
       equal the  difference between the "stated redemption price at maturity"
       of a  REMIC Regular Certificate and  its "issue price."  Holders of any
       class of Certificates issued  with OID will be required to include such
       OID in gross income for federal  income tax purposes as it accrues,  in
       accordance with a constant interest  method based on the compounding of
       interest as it  accrues rather than  in accordance with receipt  of the
       interest payments. The following discussion is based in part on the OID
       Regulations and in part on the provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986
       (the  "1986 Act").  Holders of REMIC  Regular Certificates  (the "REMIC
       Regular Certificateholders")  should be  aware, however,  that the  OID
       Regulations  do not  adequately  address  certain  issues  relevant  to
       prepayable securities, such as the REMIC Regular Certificates.

            Rules governing  OID are set  forth in Code Sections  1271 through
       1273 and 1275. These rules require that  the amount and rate of accrual
       of  OID  be calculated  based  on  the  Prepayment Assumption  and  the
       anticipated  reinvestment rate, if  any, relating to  the REMIC Regular
       Certificates and prescribe  a method for adjusting the  amount and rate
       of accrual  of such discount  where the actual prepayment  rate differs
       from   the  Prepayment  Assumption.  Under  the  Code,  the  Prepayment
       Assumption must be determined in the  manner prescribed by regulations,
       which regulations have not yet  been issued. The legislative history of
       the  1986 Act  (the  "Legislative  History")  provides,  however,  that
       Congress  intended the  regulations  to  require  that  the  Prepayment
       Assumption be the prepayment assumption that is used in determining the
       initial   offering  price  of  such  REMIC  Regular  Certificates.  The
       Prospectus Supplement  for each  Series of  REMIC Regular  Certificates
       will specify the  Prepayment Assumption to  be used for the  purpose of
       determining the amount and rate of accrual of OID. No representation is
       made that the REMIC Regular  Certificates will prepay at the Prepayment
       Assumption or at any other rate.

            In general,  each REMIC Regular  Certificate will be treated  as a
       single installment obligation issued with an amount of OID equal to the
       excess of  its "stated  redemption price at  maturity" over  its "issue
       price." The issue  price of  a REMIC Regular  Certificate is the  first
       price at  which a substantial  amount of REMIC Regular  Certificates of
       that  class  are first  sold  to  the  public (excluding  bond  houses,
       brokers,  underwriters  or  wholesalers). If  less  than  a substantial
       amount  of a particular class of REMIC Regular Certificates is sold for
       cash on or  prior to the date  of their initial issuance  (the "Closing
       Date"), the issue  price for  such class  will be treated  as the  fair
       market  value of such class  on the Closing Date. The  issue price of a
       REMIC Regular Certificate  also includes the amount paid  by an initial
       Certificateholder for  accrued interest that relates to  a period prior
       to  the  issue  date  of  the REMIC  Regular  Certificate.  The  stated
       redemption price  at maturity of  a REMIC Regular  Certificate includes
       the original principal  amount of  the REMIC  Regular Certificate,  but
       generally   will  not  include   distributions  of  interest   if  such
       distributions constitute "qualified  stated interest." Qualified stated
       interest generally  means interest  payable at a  single fixed  rate or
       qualified  variable  rate  (as  described  below)  provided  that  such
       interest payments are unconditionally payable at intervals  of one year
       or  less during  the  entire  term of  the  REMIC Regular  Certificate.
       Interest  is  payable  at  a  single  fixed  rate  only   if  the  rate
       appropriately takes  into account  the length  of the  interval between
       payments.  Distributions of interest on REMIC Regular Certificates with
       respect  to which  Deferred  Interest will  accrue will  not constitute
       qualified  stated interest payments, and the stated redemption price at
       maturity  of such REMIC Regular Certificates includes all distributions
       of interest as well as principal thereon.

            Where  the  interval  between  the   issue  date  and  the   first
       Distribution Date  on a  REMIC Regular Certificate  is longer  than the
       interval  between subsequent  Distribution Dates,  the  greater of  any
       original issue discount (disregarding the rate in the first period) and
       any interest foregone during  the first period is treated as the amount
       by which the stated redemption price 

       at maturity of the Certificate exceeds its issue price for  purposes of
       the de minimis  rule described below. The OID  Regulations suggest that
       all interest on a long first  period REMIC Regular Certificate that  is
       issued with non-de minimis OID, as determined under the foregoing rule,
       will be treated as OID. Where  the interval between the issue date  and
       the first Distribution  Date on a REMIC Regular  Certificate is shorter
       than the interval  between subsequent Distribution Dates,  interest due
       on  the first  Distribution Date in  excess of the  amount that accrued
       during  the first  period would  be added  to the  Certificates, stated
       redemption price at  maturity. REMIC Regular Certificateholders  should
       consult their own tax advisors to determine the  issue price and stated
       redemption price at maturity of a REMIC Regular Certificate.

            Under the de minimis rule, OID on a REMIC Regular Certificate will
       be considered to be  zero if such OID is less than  0.25% of the stated
       redemption  price  at   maturity  of  the  REMIC   Regular  Certificate
       multiplied by  the  weighted  average  maturity of  the  REMIC  Regular
       Certificate. For  this purpose,  the weighted average  maturity of  the
       REMIC  Regular  Certificate is  computed  as  the  sum of  the  amounts
       determined by multiplying the number of full years (i.e., rounding down
       partial years) from the issue date until each distribution in reduction
       of stated redemption  price at maturity  is scheduled to  be made by  a
       fraction, the  numerator of  which is the  amount of  each distribution
       included  in the  stated  redemption  price at  maturity  of the  REMIC
       Regular  Certificate  and  the  denominator  of  which  is  the  stated
       redemption price at maturity of the REMIC Regular Certificate. Although
       currently unclear, it  appears that the schedule of  such distributions
       should be determined  in accordance with the Prepayment Assumption. The
       Prepayment  Assumption  with  respect  to a  Series  of  REMIC  Regular
       Certificates  will be set  forth in the  related Prospectus Supplement.
       Holders  generally must  report de  minimis OID  pro rata  as principal
       payments are  received, and  such income  will be  capital gain  if the
       REMIC Regular Certificate is held  as a capital asset. However, accrual
       method holders may elect to accrue all de minimis OID as well as market
       discount under a constant interest method.

            The Prospectus Supplement with respect to a Trust Fund may provide
       for  certain  REMIC  Regular  Certificates   to  be  issued  at  prices
       significantly  exceeding their principal  amounts or based  on notional
       principal  balances (the "Super-Premium  Certificates"). The income tax
       treatment of such REMIC  Regular Certificates is not entirely  certain.
       For information reporting purposes, the  Trust Fund intends to take the
       position that  the stated  redemption price at  maturity of  such REMIC
       Regular  Certificates is  the sum of  all payments  to be made  on such
       REMIC Regular Certificates determined under  the Prepayment Assumption,
       with the  result that such  REMIC Regular Certificates would  be issued
       with  OID. The  calculation of  income in  this manner could  result in
       negative original issue discount (which  delays future accruals of  OID
       rather  than  being  immediately deductible)  when  prepayments  on the
       Mortgage Assets exceed those estimated under the Prepayment Assumption.
       The IRS might  contend, however, that certain  contingent payment rules
       contained in final regulations issued on June 11, 1996, with respect to
       original  issue discount, should  apply to such  Certificates. Although
       such rules are  not applicable to instruments governed  by Code Section
       1272(a)(6),  they represent  the only  guidance  regarding the  current
       views of the IRS with  respect to contingent payment instruments. These
       proposed regulations, if applicable, generally would require holders of
       Regular  Interest   Certificates  to   take  the   payments  considered
       contingent interest payments  into income on a yield  to maturity basis
       in accordance  with a  schedule of projected  payments provided  by the
       Depositor and to make annual  adjustments to income to account  for the
       difference  between  actual  payments  received  and projected  payment
       amounts  accrued. In  the alternative,  the IRS  could assert  that the
       stated  redemption price at maturity of such REMIC Regular Certificates
       should be limited to their  principal amount (subject to the discussion
       below  under "--Accrued  Interest Certificates"),  so  that such  REMIC
       Regular  Certificates  would  be  considered  for  federal  income  tax
       purposes to be issued at a premium. If such a position were to prevail,
       the rules described below under  "--Taxation of Owners of REMIC Regular
       Certificates--Premium" would  apply. It is  unclear when a loss  may be
       claimed for any unrecovered  basis for a Super-Premium  Certificate. It
       is possible that a holder of a Super-Premium Certificate may only claim
       a loss when its  remaining basis exceeds the  maximum amount of  future
       payments, assuming no further prepayments  or when the final payment is
       received with respect to such Super-Premium Certificate.

            Under the REMIC Regulations, if the issue price of a REMIC Regular
       Certificate (other than REMIC  Regular Certificate based on a  notional
       amount)  does not  exceed  125%  of its  actual  principal amount,  the
       interest rate is  not considered disproportionately  high. Accordingly,
       such REMIC  Regular Certificate  generally should not  be treated  as a
       Super-Premium  Certificate and the rules described below under "--REMIC
       Regular  Certificates--Premium" should apply.  However, it  is possible
       that holders of REMIC Regular Certificates issued at a premium, even if
       the premium  is less  than 25% of  such Certificate's  actual principal
       balance, will  be required  to amortize the  premium under  an original
       issue discount  method or  contingent interest  method  even though  no
       election under Code Section 171 is made to amortize such premium.

            Generally, a REMIC Regular Certificateholder must include in gross
       income  the "daily  portions," as  determined  below, of  the OID  that
       accrues on a REMIC Regular Certificate for each day a Certificateholder
       holds the  REMIC Regular Certificate,  including the purchase  date but
       excluding the disposition date. In the case of an original holder  of a
       REMIC 
       Regular Certificate, a calculation will  be made of the portion of  the
       OID that accrues  during each successive  period ("an accrual  period")
       that  ends  on  the  day  in  the  calendar  year  corresponding  to  a
       Distribution Date  (or if  Distribution Dates are  on the first  day or
       first business day of the  immediately preceding month, interest may be
       treated as payable on the last day  of the immediately preceding month)
       and  begins on  the  day after  the  end of  the immediately  preceding
       accrual  period (or on the issue date in  the case of the first accrual
       period). This will be done, in the case of each full accrual period, by
       (i) adding  (a) the  present value  at the  end of  the accrual  period
       (determined  by  using as  a  discount  factor  the original  yield  to
       maturity  of the  REMIC  Regular Certificates  as calculated  under the
       Prepayment Assumption) of all remaining  payments to be received on the
       REMIC Regular Certificates  under the Prepayment Assumption and (b) any
       payments included in  the stated redemption price  at maturity received
       during such  accrual period, and  (ii) subtracting from that  total the
       adjusted issue price of the REMIC Regular Certificates at the beginning
       of such  accrual period. The  adjusted issue price  of a  REMIC Regular
       Certificate at the  beginning of the first accrual  period is its issue
       price; the adjusted issue price  of a REMIC Regular Certificate  at the
       beginning of a subsequent accrual period is the adjusted issue price at
       the  beginning of  the immediately  preceding  accrual period  plus the
       amount of  OID allocable  to that  accrual  period and  reduced by  the
       amount of any payment other than a payment of qualified stated interest
       made at  the end  of or  during that  accrual period.  The OID  accrued
       during an  accrual period will then be divided by the number of days in
       the period to  determine the daily portion  of OID for each  day in the
       accrual period. The calculation of OID under the method described above
       will cause the accrual of OID to either increase or decrease (but never
       below zero)  in  a  given  accrual  period to  reflect  the  fact  that
       prepayments are  occurring faster or  slower than under  the Prepayment
       Assumption. With  respect to an  initial accrual period shorter  than a
       full  accrual period,  the  daily  portions of  OID  may be  determined
       according to an appropriate allocation under any reasonable method.

            A subsequent purchaser of a REMIC Regular Certificate issued  with
       OID who purchases the REMIC Regular Certificate at a cost less than the
       remaining stated redemption price at  maturity will also be required to
       include in  gross income the sum  of the daily portions of  OID on that
       REMIC Regular Certificate.  In computing the daily portions  of OID for
       such a  purchaser (as well as an initial  purchaser that purchases at a
       price higher  than the adjusted  issue price  but less than  the stated
       redemption price at maturity), however, the daily portion is reduced by
       the amount that  would be the daily  portion for such day  (computed in
       accordance with  the rules set  forth above) multiplied by  a fraction,
       the  numerator of which is the amount, if  any, by which the price paid
       by such holder for that REMIC Regular Certificate exceeds the following
       amount: (a) the sum of the issue price plus the aggregate amount of OID
       that would  have been includible  in the  gross income  of an  original
       REMIC  Regular  Certificateholder  (who  purchased  the  REMIC  Regular
       Certificate at its  issue price), less (b) any  prior payments included
       in  the stated  redemption price  at maturity,  and the  denominator of
       which  is  the  sum  of  the daily  portions  for  that  REMIC  Regular
       Certificate for all days beginning on the date  after the purchase date
       and  ending   on  the  maturity  date  computed  under  the  Prepayment
       Assumption. A holder who pays  an acquisition premium instead may elect
       to accrue OID by treating the purchase as a purchase at original issue.

            Variable   Rate   REMIC    Regular   Certificates. REMIC   Regular
       Certificates  may  provide for  interest  based  on  a  variable  rate.
       Interest  based on  a variable  rate will  constitute qualified  stated
       interest and not contingent interest  if, generally, (i) such  interest
       is unconditionally payable  at least annually, (ii) the  issue price of
       the debt instrument does  not exceed the total noncontingent  principal
       payments and (iii) interest is based on a "qualified floating rate," an
       "objective rate," a combination of a single  fixed rate and one or more
       "qualified floating rates," one "qualified inverse floating rate," or a
       combination of  "qualified floating rates  "--that do not operate  in a
       manner  that significantly accelerates  or defers interest  payments on
       such REMIC Regular Certificates.

            The  amount of  OID with  respect to  a REMIC  Regular Certificate
       bearing a variable rate of interest will accrue in the manner described
       above  under  "--Original  Issue  Discount  and  Premium"  by  assuming
       generally that the  index used for the variable rate  will remain fixed
       throughout the  term of  the Certificate.  Appropriate adjustments  are
       made for the actual variable rate.

            Although  unclear at  present,  the  Depositor  intends  to  treat
       interest on a  REMIC Regular Certificate that is a  weighted average of
       the net interest rates on  Mortgage Loans as qualified stated interest.
       In such  case, the weighted  average rate used  to compute  the initial
       pass-through rate on  the REMIC Regular Certificates will  be deemed to
       be  the  index  in  effect  through  the  life  of  the  REMIC  Regular
       Certificates.  It is possible, however, that the  IRS may treat some or
       all  of the  interest on  REMIC  Regular Certificates  with a  weighted
       average rate  as  taxable  under  the  rules  relating  to  obligations
       providing for contingent payments. Such treatment may effect the timing
       of income accruals on such REMIC Regular Certificates.

            Election to Treat All Interest as OID. The OID Regulations  permit
       a  Certificateholder  to   elect  to  accrue  all   interest,  discount
       (including de minimis  market discount or original  issue discount) and
       premium in income as interest, based on a 
       constant yield method. If such an election were to be made with respect
       to   a  REMIC   Regular   Certificate   with   market   discount,   the
       Certificateholder would be  deemed to have made an  election to include
       in  income currently  market discount  with respect  to all  other debt
       instruments having market discount that such Certificateholder acquires
       during  the   year  of  the   election  or  thereafter.   Similarly,  a
       Certificateholder that  makes this election  for a Certificate  that is
       acquired  at  a premium  will be  deemed  to have  made an  election to
       amortize  bond premium  with  respect to  all  debt instruments  having
       amortizable  bond premium that such Certificateholder owns or acquires.
       See  "--REMIC  Regular Certificates--Premium"  herein. The  election to
       accrue interest, discount  and premium on a constant  yield method with
       respect to a Certificate is irrevocable without the consent of the IRS.

            Market  Discount. A purchaser of  a REMIC Regular  Certificate may
       also be subject to the market discount provisions of Code Sections 1276
       through 1278. Under these  provisions and the OID  Regulations, "market
       discount"  equals  the  excess,  if  any,  of  (i)  the  REMIC  Regular
       Certificate's  stated principal  amount  or,  in the  case  of a  REMIC
       Regular Certificate with  OID, the adjusted issue price (determined for
       this  purpose as  if the  purchaser  had purchased  such REMIC  Regular
       Certificate from an original holder) over (ii) the price for such REMIC
       Regular Certificate  paid by  the purchaser.  A Certificateholder  that
       purchases  a REMIC  Regular  Certificate  at  a  market  discount  will
       recognize income upon receipt of each distribution representing amounts
       included in such certificate's stated redemption  price at maturity. In
       particular, under Section 1276 of the Code such a holder generally will
       be required to allocate each  such distribution first to accrued market
       discount  not previously included in  income, and to recognize ordinary
       income to that extent. A  Certificateholder may elect to include market
       discount in  income currently as it accrues rather than including it on
       a  deferred basis  in  accordance  with the  foregoing.  If made,  such
       election  will apply  to all  market  discount bonds  acquired by  such
       Certificateholder on or after the  first day of the first taxable  year
       to which such election applies.

            Market discount with  respect to a REMIC Regular  Certificate will
       be considered to be  zero if the amount allocable to  the REMIC Regular
       Certificate  is less  than 0.25%  of such  REMIC Regular  Certificate's
       stated  redemption price at  maturity multiplied by  such REMIC Regular
       Certificate's weighted  average maturity  remaining after  the date  of
       purchase.  If  market  discount  on  a  REMIC  Regular  Certificate  is
       considered to  be zero  under this  rule, the  actual amount of  market
       discount must be  allocated to the remaining principal  payments on the
       REMIC Regular Certificate, and gain equal to such allocated amount will
       be  recognized  when  the  corresponding  principal  payment  is  made.
       Treasury  regulations implementing the  market discount rules  have not
       yet  been issued;  therefore, investors  should consult  their own  tax
       advisors regarding the application of these rules  and the advisability
       of making any of the elections allowed under Code Sections 1276 through
       1278.

            The Code provides that any principal  payment (whether a scheduled
       payment  or  a  prepayment) or  any  gain  on disposition  of  a market
       discount bond acquired by the taxpayer after October 22, 1986, shall be
       treated as ordinary  income to the extent  that it does not  exceed the
       accrued  market discount  at the  time of  such payment. The  amount of
       accrued market discount  for purposes of determining  the tax treatment
       of subsequent principal payments or dispositions of the market discount
       bond is to be reduced by the amount so treated as ordinary income.

            The Code also grants authority to the Treasury Department to issue
       regulations providing for the computation of accrued market discount on
       debt instruments,  the principal of which  is payable in more  than one
       installment. Until such time as regulations are issued by the Treasury,
       rules  described in  the Legislative  History will  apply.  Under those
       rules, the holder  of a market discount bond may elect to accrue market
       discount  either on  the basis  of a  constant interest method  rate or
       according  to   one  of  the  following  methods.   For  REMIC  Regular
       Certificates  issued  with  OID, the  amount  of  market  discount that
       accrues  during a  period is  equal  to the  product of  (i)  the total
       remaining market discount  and (ii) a fraction, the  numerator of which
       is the OID accruing during the  period and the denominator of which  is
       the  total remaining  OID at  the beginning  of the  period.  For REMIC
       Regular Certificates issued  without OID, the amount of market discount
       that accrues during a period is  equal to the product of (a)  the total
       remaining market discount and (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is
       the  amount of stated interest  paid during the  accrual period and the
       denominator of which  is the total amount of  stated interest remaining
       to be paid at the beginning of the period. For purposes  of calculating
       market  discount  under  any  of  the  above methods  in  the  case  of
       instruments  (such as the REMIC Regular  Certificates) that provide for
       payments  that may  be accelerated  by reason  of prepayments  of other
       obligations  securing such instruments,  the same Prepayment Assumption
       applicable to calculating the accrual of OID will apply.

            A  holder who  acquired a  REMIC Regular  Certificate at  a market
       discount  also  may be  required  to defer  a  portion of  its interest
       deductions  for the  taxable  year  attributable  to  any  indebtedness
       incurred or continued to  purchase or carry such  Certificate purchased
       with market discount. For these  purposes, the de minimis rule referred
       to above applies.  Any such deferred interest expense  would not exceed
       the market  discount that accrues  during such taxable year  and is, in
       general, 
       allowed as a  deduction not later  than the year  in which such  market
       discount  is includible  in income.  If such  holder elects  to include
       market  discount  in income  currently  as  it  accrues on  all  market
       discount instruments  acquired by such  holder in that taxable  year or
       thereafter, the interest deferral rule described above will not apply.

            Premium. A purchaser of a REMIC Regular Certificate that purchases
       the  REMIC  Regular  Certificate  at  a  cost  (not  including  accrued
       qualified stated interest) greater than its remaining stated redemption
       price  at maturity  will  be  considered to  have  purchased the  REMIC
       Regular Certificate at a premium and may elect to amortize such premium
       under  a constant  yield method.  A Certificateholder  that makes  this
       election for a Certificate that is acquired at a premium will be deemed
       to have made an election to  amortize bond premium with respect to  all
       debt   instruments   having   amortizable   bond  premium   that   such
       Certificateholder  acquires  during   the  year  of  the   election  or
       thereafter. It is not clear  whether the Prepayment Assumption would be
       taken  into  account in  determining  the  life  of the  REMIC  Regular
       Certificate for this  purpose. However, the Legislative  History states
       that the  same rules that  apply to accrual  of market  discount (which
       rules  require  use  of  a Prepayment  Assumption  in  accruing  market
       discount with respect to  REMIC Regular Certificates without  regard to
       whether such Certificates have OID)  will also apply in amortizing bond
       premium under Code Section 171. The Code provides that amortizable bond
       premium will  be allocated  among the interest  payments on  such REMIC
       Regular  Certificates and  will be  applied as  an offset  against such
       interest payment.  On June 27, 1996,  the IRS published in  the Federal
       Register proposed regulations on the amortization of  bond premium. The
       foregoing discussion is based in  part on such proposed regulations. On
       December  30,  1997,  the  IRS  issued  the  Amortizable  Bond  Premium
       Regulations, which  generally are  effective for  bonds acquired  on or
       after March 2, 1998 or, for holders making an election to amortize bond
       premium as described above for the  taxable year that includes March 2,
       1998  or any subsequent  taxable year, will  apply to bonds  held on or
       after the first day of the taxable year in which the  election is made.
       Neither the  proposed regulations nor  the final regulations,  by their
       express  terms, apply  to prepayable  securities  described in  Section
       1272(a)(6)  of  the  Code,  such  as  the  REMIC  Regular Certificates.
       Certificateholders should  consult  their tax  advisors  regarding  the
       possibility of making an election to amortize any such bond premium.

            Deferred Interest. Certain  classes of REMIC  Regular Certificates
       may provide for the accrual of Deferred Interest with respect to one or
       more ARM  Loans. Any Deferred Interest  that accrues with respect  to a
       class  of REMIC  Regular  Certificates will  constitute  income to  the
       holders of  such Certificates prior  to the time distributions  of cash
       with respect to such  Deferred Interest are made. It  is unclear, under
       the OID Regulations,  whether any of the interest  on such Certificates
       will constitute qualified  stated interest or whether all  or a portion
       of the interest  payable on such Certificates  must be included in  the
       stated  redemption price at maturity of  the Certificates and accounted
       for as OID  (which could accelerate such inclusion).  Interest on REMIC
       Regular  Certificates must  in  any  event be  accounted  for under  an
       accrual  method by  the holders  of such  Certificates and,  therefore,
       applying the latter analysis may result  only in a slight difference in
       the timing of the inclusion in income of interest on such REMIC Regular
       Certificates.

            Sale,  Exchange or Redemption. If  a REMIC Regular  Certificate is
       sold, exchanged, redeemed or retired, the seller will recognize gain or
       loss equal to the  difference between the amount realized on  the sale,
       exchange, redemption, or  retirement and the seller's adjusted basis in
       the REMIC Regular Certificate. Such adjusted basis generally will equal
       the cost of the REMIC  Regular Certificate to the seller,  increased by
       any OID and market  discount included in the seller's gross income with
       respect to  the REMIC Regular  Certificate, and reduced (but  not below
       zero) by payments  included in the stated redemption  price at maturity
       previously  received  by  the  seller  and by  any  amortized  premium.
       Similarly, a holder who receives a  payment that is part of the  stated
       redemption  price  at maturity  of  a  REMIC  Regular Certificate  will
       recognize  gain  equal to  the excess,  if  any, of  the amount  of the
       payment over an allocable portion of the holder's adjusted basis in the
       REMIC  Regular  Certificate.  A  REMIC  Regular  Certificateholder  who
       receives a final payment that is less than the holder's adjusted  basis
       in  the REMIC  Regular  Certificate will  generally  recognize a  loss.
       Except as  provided in  the following paragraph  and as  provided under
       "--Market Discount" above,  any such gain or loss will  be capital gain
       or loss,  provided  that the  REMIC Regular  Certificate is  held as  a
       "capital  asset" (generally, property  held for investment)  within the
       meaning of Code Section 1221.

            Gain  from  the sale  or  other  disposition  of a  REMIC  Regular
       Certificate that  might otherwise  be capital gain  will be  treated as
       ordinary  income to  the  extent that  such  gain does  not exceed  the
       excess, if any,  of (i) the amount  that would have been  includible in
       such holder's income with respect  to the REMIC Regular Certificate had
       income accrued thereon at a rate equal to 110% of the AFR as defined in
       Code Section  1274(d) determined  as of  the date  of purchase  of such
       REMIC  Regular Certificate, over (ii) the amount actually includible in
       such  holder's income.  Gain from  the sale  or other disposition  of a
       REMIC Regular Certificate  that might otherwise be capita  gain will be
       treated as ordinary income if the REMIC  Regular Certificate is held as
       part of a "conversion transaction"  as defined in Code section 1258(c),
       up to the amount of interest that 
       would  have  accrued  on  the  REMIC  Regular  Certificateholder's  net
       investment in  the conversion transaction  at 120%  of the  appropriate
       applicable federal  rate under  Code section 1274(d)  in effect  at the
       time  the  taxpayer entered  into  the  transaction  minus  any  amount
       previously  treated  as  ordinary  income with  respect  to  any  prior
       disposition of property that was held  as part of such transaction,  or
       if  the REMIC  Regular  Certificate  is held  as  part  of a  straddle.
       Potential investors should consult  their tax advisors with respect  to
       tax consequences of ownership and disposition of an investment in REMIC
       Regular Certificates in their particular circumstances.

            It is possible  that capital  gain realized by  holders of one  or
       more classes  of REMIC  Regular Certificates  could be considered  gain
       realized  upon  the  disposition  of   property  that  was  part  of  a
       "conversion transaction." A sale of a REMIC Regular Certificate will be
       part of a "conversion transaction" if substantially all of the holder's
       expected return is attributable to the  time value of the holder's  net
       investment, and (i)  the holder entered the contract to  sell the REMIC
       Regular Certificate substantially contemporaneously  with acquiring the
       REMIC  Regular Certificate, (ii) the REMIC  Regular Certificate is part
       of a straddle, (iii) the REMIC Regular Certificate is marketed or  sold
       as producing capital gains, or  (iv) other transactions to be specified
       in Treasury regulations that have not  yet been issued. If the sale  or
       other  disposition  of  a  REMIC  Regular  Certificate  is  part  of  a
       conversion transaction, all or a portion of the  gain realized upon the
       sale or  other disposition  of the REMIC  Regular Certificate  would be
       treated as ordinary income instead of capital gain.

            The  Certificates will be  "evidences of indebtedness"  within the
       meaning of Code Section 582(c)(1), so that gain or loss recognized from
       the  sale  of  a  REMIC Regular  Certificate  by  a  bank  or a  thrift
       institution to  which such section  applies will be ordinary  income or
       loss.

            The REMIC Regular  Certificate information reports will  include a
       statement of the adjusted issue  price of the REMIC Regular Certificate
       at the beginning of each accrual period. In addition, the  reports will
       include  information necessary  to  compute the  accrual of  any market
       discount that  may  arise  upon  secondary  trading  of  REMIC  Regular
       Certificates.  Because exact  computation  of  the  accrual  of  market
       discount on a constant yield  method would require information relating
       to the holder's purchase price which the REMIC may not have, it appears
       that the information  reports will only provide  information pertaining
       to the appropriate proportionate method of accruing market discount.

            The Taxpayer  Relief Act of  1997 (the "Act") reduces  the maximum
       rates on long-term  capital gains recognized on capital  assets held by
       individual taxpayers for  more than eighteen  months as of the  date of
       disposition (and would  further reduce the maximum rates  on such gains
       in the  year 2001 and  thereafter for certain individual  taxpayers who
       meet specified conditions).  The  capital gains rate for capital assets
       held by individual taxpayers  for more than twelve months but  not more
       than  eighteen months was  not changed  by the Act.   The Act  does not
       change the capital gains rates for corporations.  Prospective investors
       should consult their own tax advisors concerning these tax law changes.

            Accrued  Interest  Certificates. Certain   of  the  REMIC  Regular
       Certificates ("Payment Lag  Certificates") may provide for  payments of
       interest based  on a  period that corresponds  to the  interval between
       Distribution Dates but that ends  prior to each such Distribution Date.
       The period  between the Closing  Date for Payment Lag  Certificates and
       their  first Distribution  Date may  or may  not exceed  such interval.
       Purchasers of Payment Lag Certificates for which the period between the
       Closing  Date and  the first  Distribution  Date does  not exceed  such
       interval  could pay  upon  purchase of  the REMIC  Regular Certificates
       accrued interest in excess of  the accrued interest that would be  paid
       if the  interest paid  on the Distribution  Date were  interest accrued
       from  Distribution Date  to  Distribution  Date. If  a  portion of  the
       initial purchase price  of a REMIC Regular Certificate  is allocable to
       interest  that has  accrued  prior  to  the issue  date  ("pre-issuance
       accrued  interest") and  the REMIC  Regular Certificate provides  for a
       payment of  stated interest on  the first payment  date (and  the first
       payment date  is within  one year  of the  issue date)  that equals  or
       exceeds the amount of the pre-issuance accrued interest, then the REMIC
       Regular Certificate's issue  price may be computed by  subtracting from
       the issue  price the  amount of  pre-issuance accrued interest,  rather
       than as an amount payable on the REMIC Regular Certificate. However, it
       is unclear under this method how the OID Regulations treat  interest on
       Payment  Lag Certificates.  Therefore, in  the  case of  a Payment  Lag
       Certificate, the Trust Fund intends  to include accrued interest in the
       issue price and report interest payments made on the first Distribution
       Date as interest to the extent such payments represent interest for the
       number of  days that  the Certificateholder has  held such  Payment Lag
       Certificate during the first accrual period.

            Investors should  consult their  own tax  advisors concerning  the
       treatment for federal income tax purposes of Payment Lag Certificates.

            Non-Interest  Expenses  of  the  REMIC. Under  temporary  Treasury
            regulations,  if the  REMIC  is considered  to be  a "single-class
            REMIC," a  portion of  the REMIC's  servicing, administrative  and
            other  non-interest expenses will be  allocated as a separate item
            to those  REMIC Regular Certificateholders that  are "pass-through
            interest  holders."   Certificateholders  that   are  pass-through
            interest holders  should consult their own tax  advisors about the
            impact  of these  rules  on  an investment  in  the REMIC  Regular
            Certificates.  See "Pass-Through of  Non-Interest Expenses  of the
            REMIC" under "Taxation  of Owners of REMIC  Residual Certificates"
            below.

            Effects of Defaults,  Delinquencies and Losses. Certain  Series of
       Certificates   may  contain  one   or  more  classes   of  Subordinated
       Certificates, and in  the event there are defaults  or delinquencies on
       the Mortgage Assets, amounts that would otherwise be distributed on the
       Subordinated  Certificates may  instead be  distributed  on the  Senior
       Certificates.  Subordinated  Certificateholders  nevertheless  will  be
       required to  report income with  respect to such Certificates  under an
       accrual method  without  giving  effect  to delays  and  reductions  in
       distributions  on   such  Subordinated  Certificates   attributable  to
       defaults and delinquencies on the Mortgage Assets, except to the extent
       that it can  be established that such  amounts are uncollectible.  As a
       result,   the   amount   of   income   reported   by   a   Subordinated
       Certificateholder in any  period could significantly exceed  the amount
       of cash  distributed to such  holder in  that period.  The holder  will
       eventually  be allowed a  loss (or will  be allowed to  report a lesser
       amount  of  income)  to  the   extent  that  the  aggregate  amount  of
       distributions on the Subordinated Certificate is reduced as a result of
       defaults and delinquencies on the Mortgage Assets.

            Although  not entirely  clear, it  appears  that holders  of REMIC
       Regular Certificates that are corporations should in general be allowed
       to deduct  as an ordinary  loss any  loss sustained during  the taxable
       year on account  of any such Certificates becoming  wholly or partially
       worthless, and that,  in general, holders of Certificates  that are not
       corporations should be  allowed to deduct as a  short-term capital loss
       any  loss sustained  during the  taxable year  on  account of  any such
       Certificates becoming wholly worthless. Potential investors and holders
       of  the  Certificates are  urged  to  consult  their own  tax  advisors
       regarding  the appropriate  timing, amount  and  character of  any loss
       sustained  with  respect  to  such  Certificates,  including  any  loss
       resulting from  the failure to  recover previously accrued  interest or
       discount income. Special loss rules  are applicable to banks and thrift
       institutions,  including rules regarding  reserves for bad  debts. Such
       taxpayers  are advised  to  consult their  tax  advisors regarding  the
       treatment of losses on Certificates.

            Non-U.S. Persons. Generally,  payments of interest  (including any
       payment with respect to accrued  OID) on the REMIC Regular Certificates
       to a REMIC  Regular Certificateholder who is  not a U.S. Person  and is
       not engaged in a trade or business within the United States will not be
       subject  to  federal  withholding  tax   if  (i)  such  REMIC   Regular
       Certificateholder does not actually or constructively own 10 percent or
       more of  the combined  voting power  of all  classes of  equity in  the
       issuer; (ii) such  REMIC Regular Certificateholder is  not a controlled
       foreign corporation (within the meaning of Code Section 957) related to
       the issuer;  and (iii)  such REMIC  Regular Certificateholder  complies
       with  certain identification  requirements  (including  delivery  of  a
       statement,   signed  by  the   REMIC  Regular  Certificateholder  under
       penalties   of   perjury,   certifying    that   such   REMIC   Regular
       Certificateholder  is  a  foreign  person and  providing  the  name and
       address of such  REMIC Regular Certificateholder).  If a REMIC  Regular
       Certificateholder  is  not exempt  from  withholding, distributions  of
       interest to such holder, including  distributions in respect of accrued
       OID,  may be  subject to  a 30%  withholding tax, subject  to reduction
       under any  applicable tax treaty.  If the  interest on a  REMIC Regular
       Certificate is effectively  connected with the conduct by  the Non-U.S.
       REMIC  Regular  Certificateholder of  a  trade or  business  within the
       United States, then  the Non-U.S. REMIC Regular  Certificateholder will
       be subject  to U.S.  income  tax at  regular  graduated rates.  Such  a
       Non-U.S.  REMIC Regular  Certificateholder also may  be subject  to the
       branch profits tax.

            Further, a REMIC  Regular Certificate will not be  included in the
       estate of  a non-resident  alien individual that  does not  actually or
       constructively  own 10%  or more  of the  combined voting power  of all
       classes of  equity in  the Issuer  and will  not be  subject to  United
       States estate taxes.  However, Certificateholders who are  non-resident
       alien individuals  should consult  their tax  advisors concerning  this
       question.

            REMIC  Regular Certificateholders  who are  not  U.S. Persons  and
       persons related to  such holders should not acquire  any REMIC Residual
       Certificates,  and holders of  REMIC Residual Certificates  (the "REMIC
       Residual  Certificateholder")  and persons  related  to  REMIC Residual
       Certificateholders should  not acquire  any REMIC Regular  Certificates
       without consulting  their tax advisors  as to the possible  adverse tax
       consequences of doing so. In addition,  the IRS may assert that non-U.S
       Persons that own directly or indirectly, a greater than 10% interest in
       any  Mortgagor, and foreign  corporations that are  "controlled foreign
       corporations" as to  the United States of  which such a Mortgagor  is a
       "United States shareholder" within the meaning of Section 951(b) of the
       Code,  are  subject  to  United  States  withholding  tax  on  interest
       distributed  to them to the extent of interest concurrently paid by the
       related Mortgagor.

           For these purposes, a "U.S. Person" means a citizen or resident of
       the United States,  a corporation, partnership or  other entity created
       or  organized  in, or  under  the laws  of,  the United  States  or any
       political  subdivision thereof,  an  estate the  income  of which  from
       sources without  the United  States is includible  in gross  income for
       United States federal  income tax purposes regardless of its connection
       with the  conduct of a trade or  business or a trust as  to which (i) a
       court in the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over
       its administration and (ii) one or more  U.S. Persons have the right to
       control all substantial decisions of the trust.

            Information Reporting and Backup  Withholding. The Master Servicer
       will furnish  or make available, within a reasonable time after the end
       of  each  calendar  year, to  each  person  who  was  a  REMIC  Regular
       Certificateholder at any time during such year, such information as may
       be   deemed  necessary   or   desirable   to   assist   REMIC   Regular
       Certificateholders in preparing their federal income tax returns, or to
       enable holders to make such information available to beneficial  owners
       or financial intermediaries  that hold such REMIC  Regular Certificates
       on  behalf  of  beneficial  owners.  If  a  holder,  beneficial  owner,
       financial intermediary or other  recipient of a payment on behalf  of a
       beneficial  owner fails to  supply a certified  taxpayer identification
       number or if the Secretary of the Treasury determines that such  person
       has not  reported all interest and dividend income required to be shown
       on  its  federal income  tax  return,  31%  backup withholding  may  be
       required with respect  to any payments with respect to  any payments to
       registered owners who  are not "exempt recipients."   In addition, upon
       the sale of a REMIC Regular  Certificate to (or through) a broker,  the
       broker must  withhold 31% of  the entire purchase price,  unless either
       (i) the  broker determines  that the seller  is a corporation  or other
       exempt recipient, or (ii) the  seller provides, in the required manner,
       certain identifying information and, in  the case of a non-U.S. Person,
       certifies  that such  seller is  a Non-U.S.  Person, and  certain other
       conditions are met.  Such  as sale must also be reported  by the broker
       to the IRS, unless either (a) the broker determines that the  seller is
       an exempt  recipient or  (b) the seller  certifies its  non-U.S. Person
       status (and  certain other conditions  are met).  Certification  of the
       registered owner's non-U.S. Person status normally would be made on IRS
       Form W-8  under penalties of perjury, although  in certain cases it may
       be possible to submit other documentary evidence. Any  amounts deducted
       and withheld  from a distribution to a recipient  would be allowed as a
       credit against such recipient's federal income tax liability.

            On  October  6,  1997,  the  Treasury  Department issued  the  New
       Regulations,  which  make  certain  modifications  to the  withholding,
       backup  withholding and  information reporting  rules described  above.
       The New  Regulations attempt  to unify  certification requirements  and
       modify  reliance  standards.   The  New Regulations  will  generally be
       effective for payments made after December 31, 1998, subject to certain
       transition rules.  Prospective investors are urged to consult their own

       b. Taxation of Owners of REMIC Residual Certificates

            Allocation  of the  Income  of  the REMIC  to  the REMIC  Residual
       Certificates. The  REMIC will  not  be subject  to  federal income  tax
       except with respect to income from  prohibited transactions and certain
       other  transactions. See  "--Prohibited Transactions  and  Other Taxes"
       below.  Instead, each original  holder of a  REMIC Residual Certificate
       will report on its  federal income tax return, as  ordinary income, its
       share  of  the taxable  income of  the  REMIC for  each day  during the
       taxable year on which such holder owns any REMIC Residual Certificates.
       The taxable  income of  the REMIC for  each day  will be  determined by
       allocating the  taxable income of  the REMIC for each  calendar quarter
       ratably to  each  day in  the quarter.  Such a  holder's  share of  the
       taxable  income of the REMIC for each  day will be based on the portion
       of the outstanding REMIC Residual Certificates that such holder owns on
       that day. The taxable income of  the REMIC will be determined under  an
       accrual  method and will  be taxable to  the holders  of REMIC Residual
       Certificates   without  regard  to  the   timing  or  amounts  of  cash
       distributions by the REMIC. Ordinary income derived from REMIC Residual
       Certificates will be "portfolio income" for purposes of the taxation of
       taxpayers subject  to the limitations on the  deductibility of "passive
       losses." As residual interests, the REMIC Residual Certificates will be
       subject  to tax  rules, described  below, that  differ from  those that
       would apply if the REMIC Residual Certificates were treated for federal
       income  tax purposes as direct ownership  interests in the Certificates
       or as debt instruments issued by the REMIC.

            A  REMIC Residual  Certificateholder may  be  required to  include
       taxable income  from the  REMIC Residual Certificate  in excess  of the
       cash   distributed.   For   example,  a   structure   where   principal
       distributions  are  made  serially on  regular  interests  (that  is, a
       fast-pay, slow-pay structure) may generate such a mismatching of income
       and  cash distributions (that  is, "phantom income").  This mismatching
       may be caused  by the use of certain required tax accounting methods by
       the REMIC, variations in the prepayment rate of the underlying Mortgage
       Assets and  certain other  factors. Depending upon  the structure  of a
       particular transaction,  the aforementioned  factors may  significantly
       reduce the after-tax yield of a REMIC Residual Certificate 
       to  a REMIC  Residual  Certificateholder or  cause  the REMIC  Residual
       Certificate  to have negative  "value." Investors should  consult their
       own tax advisors concerning the federal income tax treatment of a REMIC
       Residual  Certificate and  the  impact  of such  tax  treatment on  the
       after-tax yield of a REMIC Residual Certificate.

            A  subsequent REMIC Residual Certificateholder also will report on
       its federal income tax return amounts representing a daily share of the
       taxable  income of  the REMIC  for each  day that  such  REMIC Residual
       Certificateholder  owns such  REMIC Residual  Certificate.  Those daily
       amounts generally would equal the amounts that would have been reported
       for the same  days by an original REMIC  Residual Certificateholder, as
       described  above.  The  Legislative  History  indicates  that   certain
       adjustments may be  appropriate to reduce (or increase) the income of a
       subsequent  holder of a REMIC  Residual Certificate that purchased such
       REMIC Residual Certificate at  a price greater than (or less  than) the
       adjusted basis such REMIC Residual  Certificate would have in the hands
       of  an  original  REMIC  Residual  Certificateholder.  See  "--Sale  or
       Exchange  of  REMIC  Residual Certificates"  below.  It  is  not clear,
       however, whether such adjustments will in fact be permitted or required
       and,  if  so, how  they would  be  made. The  REMIC Regulations  do not
       provide for any such adjustments.

            Taxable   Income   of   the   REMIC   Attributable   to   Residual
       Interests. The taxable  income of the  REMIC will reflect a  netting of
       (i) the  income from the Mortgage  Assets and the REMIC's  other assets
       and (ii) the  deductions allowed to the  REMIC for interest and  OID on
       the  REMIC Regular  Certificates and,  except as described  above under
       "--Taxation  of  Owners  of  REMIC  Regular  Certificates--Non-Interest
       Expenses  of  the  REMIC,"  other  expenses. REMIC  taxable  income  is
       generally determined in  the same  manner as the  taxable income of  an
       individual using the accrual method  of accounting, except that (i) the
       limitations  on  deductibility  of  investment  interest   expense  and
       expenses for the production of income do  not apply, (ii) all bad loans
       will be deductible  as business bad debts, and (iii)  the limitation on
       the deductibility of interest and expenses related to tax-exempt income
       will apply. The REMIC's gross income includes interest, original  issue
       discount income,  and market discount  income, if any, on  the Mortgage
       Loans, reduced  by amortization of  any premium on the  Mortgage Loans,
       plus income on reinvestment  of cash flows and reserve assets, plus any
       cancellation  of indebtedness income upon allocation of realized losses
       to the REMIC Regular Certificates. Note that the timing of cancellation
       of indebtedness income recognized  by REMIC Residual Certificateholders
       resulting from defaults and delinquencies on Mortgage Assets may differ
       from  the time of  the actual loss  on the Mortgage  Asset. The REMIC's
       deductions include interest and original issue discount expense on  the
       REMIC Regular Certificates, servicing fees on the Mortgage Loans, other
       administrative  expenses  of  the  REMIC and  realized  losses  on  the
       Mortgage Loans. The requirement that REMIC Residual  Certificateholders
       report their pro rata share of taxable  income or net loss of the REMIC
       will  continue until  there are  no Certificates  of any  class  of the
       related Series outstanding.

            For  purposes of determining  its taxable  income, the  REMIC will
       have an initial aggregate  tax basis in its assets equal  to the sum of
       the  issue prices  of  the  REMIC Regular  Certificates  and the  REMIC
       Residual  Certificates (or,  if a  class  of Certificates  is not  sold
       initially,  its  fair  market  value).  Such aggregate  basis  will  be
       allocated among  the Mortgage Assets  and other assets of  the REMIC in
       proportion to their respective fair market value. A Mortgage Asset will
       be deemed to have been acquired with  discount or premium to the extent
       that  the  REMIC's  basis therein  is  less  than or  greater  than its
       principal  balance, respectively.  Any  such discount  (whether  market
       discount or OID)  will be includible in the  income of the REMIC  as it
       accrues, in advance of receipt of the cash attributable to such income,
       under a method similar  to the method described above  for accruing OID
       on  the REMIC  Regular Certificates.  The  REMIC may  elect under  Code
       Section 171 to amortize any premium  on the Mortgage Assets. Premium on
       any Mortgage  Asset to which  such election applies would  be amortized
       under a constant yield method. It  is not clear whether the yield of  a
       Mortgage Asset would be calculated  for this purpose based on scheduled
       payments  or taking account of the Prepayment Assumption. Additionally,
       such an  election would  not apply  to the  yield with  respect to  any
       underlying mortgage  loan originated on  or before September  27, 1985.
       Instead,  premium  with  respect  to  such a  mortgage  loan  would  be
       allocated among the principal payments thereon  and would be deductible
       by the REMIC as those payments become due.

            The REMIC will be allowed a deduction  for interest and OID on the
       REMIC Regular  Certificates. The  amount and method  of accrual  of OID
       will be  calculated for this  purpose in the  same manner  as described
       above with respect to REMIC  Regular Certificates except that the 0.25%
       per  annum  de  minimis rule  and  adjustments  for  subsequent holders
       described therein will not apply.

            A  REMIC Residual  Certificateholder  will  not  be  permitted  to
       amortize the cost of the REMIC Residual Certificate as an offset to its
       share of the REMIC's taxable income. However, REMIC taxable income will
       not include cash  received by the REMIC  that represents a  recovery of
       the REMIC's  basis in its  assets, and,  as described above,  the issue
       price of the  REMIC Residual Certificates  will be  added to the  issue
       price of  the REMIC  Regular Certificates  in  determining the  REMIC's
       initial basis in its assets. See "--Sale or Exchange of REMIC  Residual
       Certificates" below. For a discussion of possible 
       adjustments  to income  of  a  subsequent holder  of  a REMIC  Residual
       Certificate to reflect  any difference between the actual  cost of such
       REMIC Residual Certificate  to such holder and the  adjusted basis such
       REMIC Residual Certificate would have in the hands of an original REMIC
       Residual  Certificateholder, see  "--Allocation of  the  Income of  the
       REMIC to the REMIC Residual Certificates" above.

            Net Losses of  the REMIC. The REMIC will  have a net loss  for any
       calendar quarter in which its  deductions exceed its gross income. Such
       net loss would be allocated among the REMIC Residual Certificateholders
       in  the same  manner  as  the  REMIC's taxable  income.  The  net  loss
       allocable to any  REMIC Residual Certificate will not  be deductible by
       the holder  to the  extent that  such net  loss  exceeds such  holder's
       adjusted basis in such REMIC Residual Certificate. Any net loss that is
       not currently deductible by reason of this  limitation may only be used
       by such  REMIC Residual  Certificateholder to offset  its share  of the
       REMIC's  taxable  income in  future  periods (but  not  otherwise). The
       ability  of REMIC Residual  Certificateholders that are  individuals or
       closely  held corporations  to  deduct  net losses  may  be subject  to
       additional limitations under the Code.

            Mark to Market  Rules. Prospective purchasers of a  REMIC Residual
       Certificate should be aware that the IRS has finalized regulations (the
       "Mark-to-Market  Regulations")  which  provide  that  a  REMIC Residual
       Certificate acquired after January 3,  1995 cannot be marked to market.
       The Mark-to-Market Regulations replaced the temporary regulations which
       allowed a Residual Certificate to be marked to market  provided that it
       was not a "negative value" residual interest and did not have  the same
       economic effect as a "negative value" residual interest.

            Pass-Through of Non-Interest  Expenses of the REMIC. As  a general
       rule,  all of  the fees  and  expenses of  a REMIC  will be  taken into
       account by holders of the REMIC Residual Certificates. In the case of a
       single  class REMIC,  however, the  expenses and  a matching  amount of
       additional  income   will  be   allocated,  under  temporary   Treasury
       regulations, among the  REMIC Regular Certificateholders and  the REMIC
       Residual Certificateholders  on  a daily  basis  in proportion  to  the
       relative  amounts of income accruing  to each Certificateholder on that
       day.  In general  terms, a single  class REMIC  is one that  either (i)
       would qualify, under existing Treasury regulations, as  a grantor trust
       if it were not  a REMIC (treating all interests as ownership interests,
       even  if they  would  be  classified as  debt  for  federal income  tax
       purposes) or (ii) is similar to such a trust and is structured with the
       principal  purpose  of avoiding  the single  class REMIC  rules. Unless
       otherwise  stated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the expenses
       of the REMIC will be allocated to holders of the related REMIC Residual
       Certificates in their entirety and not  to holders of the related REMIC
       Regular Certificates.

            In the  case of individuals  (or trusts, estates or  other persons
       that compute their income in the same manner as individuals) who own an
       interest in a REMIC Regular Certificate or a REMIC Residual Certificate
       directly or through a pass-through  interest holder that is required to
       pass  miscellaneous  itemized  deductions  through  to  its  owners  or
       beneficiaries  (e.g.  a partnership,  an  S  corporation  or a  grantor
       trust),  such expenses will be deductible under Code Section 67 only to
       the  extent  that  such expenses,  plus  other  "miscellaneous itemized
       deductions" of the individual, exceed 2% of  such individual's adjusted
       gross income. In addition, Code Section 68  provides that the amount of
       itemized  deductions  otherwise  allowable   for  an  individual  whose
       adjusted  gross  income  exceeds  a  certain  amount  (the  "Applicable
       Amount") will be reduced by  the lesser of (i) 3% of the  excess of the
       individual's  adjusted gross income over the  Applicable Amount or (ii)
       80% of  the amount of  itemized deductions otherwise allowable  for the
       taxable year.  The amount  of additional taxable  income recognized  by
       REMIC Residual Certificateholders who are subject to the limitations of
       either Code Section 67 or Code  Section 68 may be substantial. Further,
       holders  (other than corporations)  subject to the  alternative minimum
       tax may  not deduct  miscellaneous itemized  deductions in  determining
       such holders' alternative minimum taxable income. The REMIC is required
       to report  to each  pass-through interest  holder and to  the IRS  such
       holder's allocable share, if any, of the REMIC's non-interest expenses.
       The   term  "pass-through   interest   holder"   generally  refers   to
       individuals,  entities taxed  as  individuals and  certain pass-through
       entities,  but  does   not  include  real  estate   investment  trusts.
       Accordingly,  investment in REMIC Residual Certificates will in general
       not be suitable for individuals  or for certain pass-through  entities,
       such  as  partnerships and  S  corporations, that  have  individuals as
       partners or shareholders.

            Excess Inclusions. A portion  of the  income on  a REMIC  Residual
       Certificate (referred  to in the Code as an "excess inclusion") for any
       calendar  quarter will be subject to federal  income tax in all events.
       Thus, for example, an excess inclusion (i) may not, except as described
       below, be offset by any unrelated losses, deductions or loss carryovers
       of  a  REMIC  Residual  Certificateholder;  (ii)  will  be  treated  as
       "unrelated business taxable income" within the meaning of Code  Section
       512 if the  REMIC Residual Certificateholder is  a pension fund  or any
       other  organization  that is  subject  to  tax  only on  its  unrelated
       business taxable income (see "--Tax-Exempt Investors" below); and (iii)
       is not eligible for any reduction in the rate of withholding tax in the
       case of a REMIC Residual  Certificateholder that is a foreign investor.
       See "--Non-U.S. Persons" below.

            Except as  discussed in the  following paragraph, with  respect to
            any REMIC Residual  Certificateholder, the  excess inclusions  for
            any calendar quarter is  the excess, if any, of (i)  the income of
            such  REMIC Residual Certificateholder  for that  calendar quarter
            from  its REMIC  Residual Certificate  over  (ii) the  sum of  the
            "daily accruals"  (as  defined  below) for  all  days  during  the
            calendar  quarter on  which the  REMIC Residual  Certificateholder
            holds such REMIC Residual Certificate. For this purpose, the daily
            accruals   with  respect  to  a  REMIC  Residual  Certificate  are
            determined by allocating  to each day in the  calendar quarter its
            ratable portion of  the product of the "adjusted  issue price" (as
            defined below) of the REMIC Residual  Certificate at the beginning
            of the calendar quarter and  120 percent of the "Federal long-term
            rate"  in effect  at the  time the  REMIC Residual  Certificate is
            issued. For  this purpose, the  "adjusted issue price" of  a REMIC
            Residual  Certificate at  the beginning  of  any calendar  quarter
            equals   the  issue  price  of  the  REMIC  Residual  Certificate,
            increased by the amount of  daily accruals for all prior quarters,
            and  decreased (but  not below  zero) by  the aggregate  amount of
            payments  made  on  the  REMIC  Residual  Certificate  before  the
            beginning  of  such quarter.  The "federal  long-term rate"  is an
            average of current yields on Treasury securities with  a remaining
            term of greater than nine years, computed and published monthly by
            the IRS.

            In the  case of  any REMIC  Residual Certificates  held by  a real
       estate investment trust,  the aggregate excess inclusions  with respect
       to such  REMIC Residual Certificates,  reduced (but not below  zero) by
       the real estate investment trust  taxable income (within the meaning of
       Code  Section  857(b)(2),  excluding any  net  capital  gain), will  be
       allocated among  the shareholders  of such trust  in proportion  to the
       dividends received by such shareholders from such trust, and any amount
       so allocated  will be treated as an excess  inclusion with respect to a
       REMIC Residual  Certificate as  if held  directly by such  shareholder.
       Regulated  investment   companies,  common  trust   funds  and  certain
       cooperatives are subject to similar rules.

            The Small Business  Job Protection Act of 1996  has eliminated the
       special   rule    permitting   Section   593    institutions   ("thrift
       institutions")   to  use  net  operating  losses  and  other  allowable
       deductions to offset their excess inclusion income from  REMIC residual
       certificates  that have "significant  value" within the  meaning of the
       REMIC Regulations, effective for taxable years beginning after December
       31, 1995,  except with  respect to  residual certificates  continuously
       held by a thrift institution since November 1, 1995.

            In  addition, the  Small  Business  Job  Protection  Act  of  1996
       provides three rules for determining the effect on excess inclusions on
       the alternative minimum  taxable income  of a  residual holder.  First,
       alternative   minimum  taxable  income  for  such  residual  holder  is
       determined without  regard  to the  special  rule that  taxable  income
       cannot  be less  than  excess  inclusions. Second,  the  amount of  any
       alternative minimum tax net operating  loss deductions must be computed
       without  regard to any  excess inclusions.  Third, a  residual holder's
       alternative minimum taxable income  for a tax year cannot  be less than
       excess  inclusions for  the year.  The  effect of  this last  statutory
       amendment is to prevent the use  of nonrefundable tax credits to reduce
       a taxpayer's income  tax below its tentative minimum  tax computed only
       on excess inclusions. These rules are effective for tax years beginning
       after December 31,  1986, unless a residual holder  elects to have such
       rules apply only to tax years beginning after August 20, 1996.

            Payments. Any distribution made on a REMIC Residual Certificate to
       a  REMIC Residual  Certificateholder will be  treated as  a non-taxable
       return of capital to the extent  it does not exceed the REMIC  Residual
       Certificateholder's adjusted basis in such  REMIC Residual Certificate.
       To the extent  a distribution exceeds such  adjusted basis, it  will be
       treated as gain from the sale of the REMIC Residual Certificate.

            Sale  or Exchange  of  REMIC  Residual  Certificates. If  a  REMIC
       Residual Certificate  is sold or  exchanged, the seller  will generally
       recognize  gain or  loss equal  to  the difference  between the  amount
       realized on the  sale or exchange and  its adjusted basis in  the REMIC
       Residual  Certificate  (except  that the  recognition  of  loss  may be
       limited  under  the "wash  sale"  rules  described below).  A  holder's
       adjusted basis in  a REMIC  Residual Certificate  generally equals  the
       cost  of  such  REMIC  Residual  Certificate  to  such  REMIC  Residual
       Certificateholder,  increased by the  taxable income of  the REMIC that
       was included  in the  income of  such REMIC Residual  Certificateholder
       with respect to such REMIC Residual Certificate, and decreased (but not
       below zero)  by the net losses that have  been allowed as deductions to
       such  REMIC Residual  Certificateholder  with  respect  to  such  REMIC
       Residual Certificate  and by the distributions received thereon by such
       REMIC Residual  Certificateholder. In  general, any  such gain  or loss
       will be capital gain or loss provided the REMIC Residual Certificate is
       held as a  capital asset. However, REMIC Residual  Certificates will be
       "evidences   of  indebtedness"  within  the  meaning  of  Code  Section
       582(c)(1), so  that  gain  or loss  recognized  from sale  of  a  REMIC
       Residual  Certificate by  a bank  or thrift  institution to  which such
       section  applies would  be  ordinary  income or  loss.  In addition,  a
       transfer  of  a  REMIC  Residual  Certificate  that  is  a "noneconomic
       residual  interest"  may  be subject  to  different  rules.  See "--Tax
       Related    Restrictions     on    Transfers    of     REMIC    Residual
       Certificates--Noneconomic REMIC Residual Certificates" below.

            Except as  provided in Treasury  regulations yet to be  issued, if
       the seller  of  a  REMIC Residual  Certificate  reacquires  such  REMIC
       Residual Certificate, or acquires any other REMIC Residual Certificate,
       any  residual  interest in  another  REMIC  or  similar interest  in  a
       "taxable mortgage pool" (as defined in Code Section 7701(i)) during the
       period beginning  six months before,  and ending six months  after, the
       date  of such sale, such sale will  be subject to the "wash sale" rules
       of Code Section  1091. In that  event, any loss  realized by the  REMIC
       Residual Certificateholder  on the sale  will not  be deductible,  but,
       instead, will increase such REMIC Residual Certificateholder's adjusted
       basis in the newly acquired asset.

            The Act  reduces  the maximum  rates  on long-term  capital  gains
       recognized on capital assets held by individual taxpayers for more than
       eighteen months as of the date of disposition (and would further reduce
       the  maximum rates on  such gains in  the year 2001  and thereafter for
       certain  individual  taxpayers  who meet  specified  conditions).   The
       capital gains rate for capital  assets held by individual taxpayers for
       more  than twelve  months but  not more  than eighteen  months  was not
       changed by the Act.   The Act does  not change the capital gains  rates
       for corporations.   Prospective investors should consult  their own tax
       advisors concerning these tax law changes.

       Prohibited Transactions and Other Taxes

            The Code imposes a tax  on REMICs equal to 100% of  the net income
       derived from  "prohibited transactions"  (the "Prohibited  Transactions
       Tax").  In  general,   subject  to  certain  specified   exceptions,  a
       prohibited  transaction means the disposition  of a Mortgage Asset, the
       receipt of income  from a source other than a Mortgage Asset or certain
       other  permitted investments, the receipt of compensation for services,
       or gain from the disposition of an asset purchased with the payments on
       the  Mortgage Assets for  temporary investment pending  distribution on
       the Certificates.  It is not  anticipated that the  Trust Fund for  any
       Series of Certificates  will engage in  any prohibited transactions  in
       which it would recognize a material amount of net income.

            In addition, certain contributions to a Trust Fund as  to which an
       election has been made to  treat such Trust Fund as a  REMIC made after
       the day  on which  such Trust Fund  issues all  of its  interests could
       result in the imposition  of a tax on  the Trust Fund equal to  100% of
       the  value of  the contributed  property (the "Contributions  Tax"). No
       Trust Fund  for any  Series of  Certificates will  accept contributions
       that would subject it to such tax.

            In addition, a Trust Fund as to which an election has been made to
       treat such Trust Fund as a REMIC may also  be subject to federal income
       tax  at the  highest corporate  rate  on "net  income from  foreclosure
       property," determined  by  reference to  the rules  applicable to  real
       estate  investment  trusts.  "Net  income  from  foreclosure  property"
       generally  means income from foreclosure property other than qualifying
       income for a real estate investment trust.

            Where any Prohibited  Transactions Tax, Contributions Tax,  tax on
       net  income from  foreclosure  property  or state  or  local income  or
       franchise tax  that may be imposed on a REMIC relating to any Series of
       Certificates arises out  of or results from (i) a breach of the related
       Servicer's, Trustee's or Depositor's obligations,  as the case may  be,
       under the related Agreement for such Series,  such tax will be borne by
       such Servicer, Trustee or Depositor, as the case may be, out of its own
       funds or (ii) the Depositor's obligation to repurchase a Mortgage Loan,
       such  tax  will be  borne  by the  Depositor.  In the  event  that such
       Servicer, Trustee or Depositor, as the case may be, fails to  pay or is
       not required to  pay any such tax  as provided above, such tax  will be
       payable out of  the Trust  Fund for such  Series and  will result in  a
       reduction   in   amounts   available   to   be   distributed   to   the
       Certificateholders of such Series.

       Liquidation and Termination

            If the  REMIC adopts  a plan of  complete liquidation,  within the
       meaning of Code Section 860F(a)(4)(A)(i), which  may be accomplished by
       designating  in the  REMIC's  final tax  return a  date  on which  such
       adoption is deemed  to occur, and sells  all of its assets  (other than
       cash) within a 90-day period beginning on such date, the REMIC will not
       be subject to  any Prohibited Transaction Tax, provided  that the REMIC
       credits or distributes in liquidation all of the sale proceeds plus its
       cash (other  than the amounts  retained to  meet claims) to  holders of
       Regular and REMIC Residual Certificates within the 90-day period.

            The REMIC will terminate  shortly following the retirement  of the
       REMIC  Regular Certificates.  If a  REMIC Residual  Certificateholder's
       adjusted basis in the REMIC  Residual Certificate exceeds the amount of
       cash  distributed to  such REMIC  Residual  Certificateholder in  final
       liquidation  of its  interest,  then  it would  appear  that the  REMIC
       Residual Certificateholder 
       would be entitled to a loss equal  to the amount of such excess. It  is
       unclear whether such a loss, if  allowed, will be a capital loss or  an
       ordinary loss.

       Administrative Matters

            Solely for  the purpose  of the  administrative provisions  of the
       Code, the  REMIC generally  will be  treated as  a partnership  and the
       REMIC  Residual Certificateholders  will be  treated  as the  partners.
       Certain information  will be furnished quarterly to each REMIC Residual
       Certificateholder who held  a REMIC Residual Certificate on  any day in
       the previous calendar quarter.

            Each REMIC Residual  Certificateholder is required to  treat items
       on its return consistently with  their treatment on the REMIC's return,
       unless  the REMIC Residual  Certificateholder either files  a statement
       identifying the  inconsistency or  establishes  that the  inconsistency
       resulted from incorrect  information received from  the REMIC. The  IRS
       may assert  a deficiency resulting  from a  failure to comply  with the
       consistency   requirement   without   instituting   an   administrative
       proceeding at the REMIC level. The REMIC does not intend to register as
       a tax  shelter  pursuant  to  Code  Section  6111  because  it  is  not
       anticipated that the REMIC  will have a net  loss for any of the  first
       five taxable  years of  its existence.  Any person  that holds  a REMIC
       Residual Certificate as a nominee for another person may be required to
       furnish the REMIC, in a manner to be provided  in Treasury regulations,
       with the name and address of such person and other information.

       Tax-Exempt Investors

            Any REMIC  Residual Certificateholder that  is a  pension fund  or
       other entity that  is subject to  federal income taxation  only on  its
       "unrelated business taxable  income" within the meaning of Code Section
       512 will be  subject to such tax  on that portion of  the distributions
       received on a  REMIC Residual Certificate that is  considered an excess
       inclusion.   See    "--Taxation   of   Owners    of   REMIC    Residual
       Certificates--Excess Inclusions" above.

       Residual Certificate Payments--Non-U.S. Persons

            Amounts paid to REMIC Residual Certificateholders who are not U.S.
       Persons    (see    "--Taxation    of   Owners    of    REMIC    Regular
       Certificates--Non-U.S.  Persons" above)  are  treated as  interest  for
       purposes of  the 30% (or  lower treaty rate) United  States withholding
       tax.  Amounts distributed  to holders  of  REMIC Residual  Certificates
       should  qualify  as  "portfolio interest,"  subject  to  the conditions
       described  in  "--Taxation  of Owners  of  REMIC  Regular Certificates"
       above,  but only to the extent that  the underlying mortgage loans were
       originated after July 18, 1984. Furthermore, the rate of withholding on
       any income  on a  REMIC Residual Certificate  that is  excess inclusion
       income  will not  be  subject  to reduction  under  any applicable  tax
       treaties.   See    "--Taxation   of    Owners    of   REMIC    Residual
       Certificates--Excess  Inclusions"  above.  If  the  portfolio  interest
       exemption is unavailable, such amount  will be subject to United States
       withholding tax when  paid or otherwise distributed (or  when the REMIC
       Residual Certificate is  disposed of) under rules similar  to those for
       withholding upon disposition  of debt  instruments that  have OID.  The
       Code,  however, grants  the  Treasury  Department  authority  to  issue
       regulations  requiring that those amounts be taken into account earlier
       than otherwise  provided where  necessary to  prevent avoidance of  tax
       (for  example,  where  the  REMIC Residual  Certificates  do  not  have
       significant  value).  See  "--Taxation  of  Owners  of  REMIC  Residual
       Certificates--Excess  Inclusions" above. If  the amounts paid  to REMIC
       Residual Certificateholders that  are not U.S. Persons  are effectively
       connected with their  conduct of a trade or business  within the United
       States,  the 30%  (or lower  treaty rate)  withholding will  not apply.
       Instead, the  amounts paid to  such non-U.S. Person will  be subject to
       U.S.  federal income taxation  at regular graduated  rates. For special
       restrictions  on the  transfer  of  REMIC  Residual  Certificates,  see
       "--Tax-Related   Restrictions   on   Transfers   of   REMIC    Residual
       Certificates" below.

            REMIC Regular  Certificateholders  and  persons  related  to  such
       holders should not  acquire any REMIC Residual  Certificates, and REMIC
       Residual  Certificateholders and  persons  related  to  REMIC  Residual
       Certificateholders  should not acquire  any REMIC Regular Certificates,
       without consulting  their tax advisors  as to the possible  adverse tax
       consequences of such acquisition.

       Tax-Related Restrictions on Transfers of REMIC Residual Certificates

            Disqualified Organizations. An entity  may not qualify as  a REMIC
       unless  there are  reasonable  arrangements  designed  to  ensure  that
       residual  interests  in  such  entity  are not  held  by  "disqualified
       organizations" (as  defined below).  Further, a tax  is imposed  on the
       transfer  of  a  residual  interest  in  a  REMIC  to  a  "disqualified
       organization." The amount of the tax equals 
       the  product  of   (A)  an  amount  (as  determined   under  the  REMIC
       Regulations)  equal to  the  present  value  of the  total  anticipated
       "excess inclusions" with respect to such interest for periods after the
       transfer  and  (ii)  the  highest  marginal  federal  income  tax  rate
       applicable to corporations. The tax is imposed on the transferor unless
       the  transfer  is  through  an  agent  (including  a  broker  or  other
       middleman) for a  disqualified organization, in which event  the tax is
       imposed on the agent. The person otherwise  liable for the tax shall be
       relieved of liability for the tax  if the transferee furnished to  such
       person  an  affidavit  that  the  transferee  is   not  a  disqualified
       organization and, at  the time of  the transfer,  such person does  not
       have actual  knowledge that  the affidavit  is  false. A  "disqualified
       organization" means  (A) the  United States,  any State,  possession or
       political   subdivision   thereof,   any    foreign   government,   any
       international  organization or any agency or  instrumentality of any of
       the  foregoing   (provided  that   such  term  does   not  include   an
       instrumentality if  all its activities  are subject to tax  and, except
       for FHLMC, a majority of  its board of directors is not selected by any
       such governmental  agency), (B)  any organization  (other than  certain
       farmers'  cooperatives)  generally  exempt from  federal  income  taxes
       unless such organization  is subject to the tax  on "unrelated business
       taxable income" and (C) a rural electric or telephone cooperative.

            A tax  is imposed  on a "pass-through  entity" (as  defined below)
       holding a  residual  interest in  a REMIC  if at  any  time during  the
       taxable  year of the pass-through entity a disqualified organization is
       the record holder of an interest in such entity. The amount  of the tax
       is equal to  the product of (A) the amount of excess inclusions for the
       taxable  year  allocable  to  the  interest  held by  the  disqualified
       organization  and  (B) the  highest  marginal federal  income  tax rate
       applicable  to corporations. The  pass-through entity  otherwise liable
       for the tax, for any  period during which the disqualified organization
       is the record holder of an interest in such entity, will be relieved of
       liability for the tax if such record holder furnishes to such entity an
       affidavit  that such record  holder is not  a disqualified organization
       and,  for such  period, the  pass-through entity  does not  have actual
       knowledge  that   the  affidavit   is  false.   For  this   purpose,  a
       "pass-through  entity" means (i)  a regulated investment  company, real
       estate investment trust or common trust fund, (ii) a partnership, trust
       or estate and  (iii) certain cooperatives. Except as may be provided in
       Treasury regulations not yet issued,  any person holding an interest in
       a pass-through entity  as a nominee for  another will, with respect  to
       such  interest, be  treated  as a  pass-through entity.  Electing large
       partnerships  (generally,  non-service  partnerships with  100  or more
       members  electing to be subject  to simplified IRS reporting provisions
       under  Code  sections  771  through  777) will  be  taxable  on  excess
       inclusion income as if all partners were disqualified organizations.

            In order  to comply with  these rules, the Agreement  will provide
       that no  record or  beneficial ownership interest  in a  REMIC Residual
       Certificate   may  be  purchased,  transferred  or  sold,  directly  or
       indirectly, without the express written consent of the Master Servicer.
       The Master Servicer will grant such consent to a proposed transfer only
       if  it receives  the  following:  (i) an  affidavit  from the  proposed
       transferee to the effect that it is not a disqualified organization and
       is not acquiring the REMIC  Residual Certificate as a nominee  or agent
       for a  disqualified organization  and (ii) a  covenant by  the proposed
       transferee  to the  effect that  the proposed  transferee agrees  to be
       bound  by and to  abide by the transfer  restrictions applicable to the
       REMIC Residual Certificate.

            Noneconomic  REMIC  Residual Certificates. The  REMIC  Regulations
       disregard,  for  federal   income  tax  purposes,  any  transfer  of  a
       Noneconomic REMIC Residual  Certificate to a "U.S.  Person," as defined
       above,  unless no significant purpose of  the transfer is to enable the
       transferor to impede the assessment or collection of tax. A Noneconomic
       REMIC Residual Certificate is any REMIC Residual Certificate (including
       a REMIC Residual Certificate with a positive value at issuance) unless,
       at the time of transfer,  taking into account the Prepayment Assumption
       and any  required or permitted  clean up calls or  required liquidation
       provided for in  the REMIC's organizational documents, (i)  the present
       value of  the  expected  future distributions  on  the  REMIC  Residual
       Certificate at  least equals  the product of  the present value  of the
       anticipated excess inclusions and the highest corporate income tax rate
       in  effect  for the  year in  which  the transfer  occurs and  (ii) the
       transferor  reasonably   expects  that  the  transferee   will  receive
       distributions from the REMIC at or after the time at which taxes accrue
       on the anticipated excess inclusions in an amount sufficient to satisfy
       the accrued  taxes. A significant  purpose to impede the  assessment or
       collection  of  tax exists  if  the  transferor,  at  the time  of  the
       transfer, either knew or should have known that the transferee would be
       unwilling or unable to pay taxes due on its share of the taxable income
       of the REMIC.  A transferor is presumed  not to have such  knowledge if
       (i)   the  transferor  conducted  a  reasonable  investigation  of  the
       transferee and (ii) the transferee acknowledges to the transferor  that
       the residual  interest may  generate tax liabilities  in excess  of the
       cash  flow and  the transferee represents  that it intends  to pay such
       taxes associated with the  residual interest as they  become due. If  a
       transfer  of a Noneconomic  REMIC Residual Certificate  is disregarded,
       the transferor  would continue to be treated as  the owner of the REMIC
       Residual Certificate and  would continue to  be subject to  tax on  its
       allocable portion of the net income of the REMIC.

            Foreign Investors. The REMIC Regulations provide that the transfer
       of a REMIC Residual Certificate that has a "tax avoidance potential" to
       a "foreign person" will be disregarded for federal income tax purposes.
       This rule appears to apply to 
       a  transferee who is not a U.S.  Person unless such transferee's income
       in  respect of the REMIC  Residual Certificate is effectively connected
       with the conduct  of a United Sates trade or business. A REMIC Residual
       Certificate is deemed to have a tax avoidance potential unless,  at the
       time of transfer, the transferor  reasonably expect that the REMIC will
       distribute  to the  transferee  amounts  that will  equal  at least  30
       percent  of  each excess  inclusion,  and  that  such amounts  will  be
       distributed at or after  the time the excess inclusion accrues  and not
       later than the  end of the calendar year following the year of accrual.
       If the  non-U.S. Person transfers  the REMIC Residual Certificate  to a
       U.S.  Person,  the  transfer  will  be  disregarded,  and  the  foreign
       transferor will continue to  be treated as the  owner, if the  transfer
       has  the effect  of allowing  the transferor  to avoid  tax on  accrued
       excess  inclusions. The provisions  in the REMIC  Regulations regarding
       transfers  of REMIC  Residual  Certificates  that  have  tax  avoidance
       potential to foreign persons are effective for all transfers after June
       30,  1992. The  Pooling and  Servicing Agreement  will provide  that no
       record or beneficial ownership interest in a REMIC Residual Certificate
       may be transferred, directly or indirectly, to a non-U.S. Person unless
       such person  provides the Trustee  with a duly completed  IRS Form 4224
       and the Trustee consents to such transfer in writing.

            Any attempted  transfer or  pledge  in violation  of the  transfer
       restrictions shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights
       in any purported  transferee. Investors in REMIC  Residual Certificates
       are advised to consult their own tax advisors with respect to transfers
       of  the  REMIC  Residual Certificates  and,  in  addition, pass-through
       entities are advised  to consult their own tax advisors with respect to
       any tax which may be imposed on a pass-through entity.

                               STATE TAX CONSIDERATIONS

            In addition  to the federal  income tax consequences  described in
       "Certain Federal  Income Tax Consequences,"  potential investors should
       consider   the  state  income  tax  consequences  of  the  acquisition,
       ownership,  and disposition of  the Offered Certificates.  State income
       tax  law may differ  substantially from the  corresponding federal law,
       and  this discussion  does not  purport to describe  any aspect  of the
       income tax  laws of  any state.  Therefore, potential  investors should
       consult  their  own  tax  advisors  with respect  to  the  various  tax
       consequences of investments in the Offered Certificates.

                                 ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

       General

            Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
       amended  ("ERISA"), imposes  certain restrictions  on employee  benefit
       plans subject thereto ("ERISA Plans") and on persons who are parties in
       interest or disqualified  persons ("parties in interest")  with respect
       to  such   ERISA  Plans.  Certain  employee  benefit   plans,  such  as
       governmental plans and church plans (if no election has been made under
       Section  410(d) of  the Code), are  not subject to  the restrictions of
       ERISA, and assets  of such  plans may be  invested in the  Certificates
       without regard to the ERISA considerations described below,  subject to
       other applicable  federal,  state  or  local  law.  However,  any  such
       governmental or church plan which  is qualified under Section 401(a) of
       the Code and exempt from taxation  under Section 501(a) of the Code  is
       subject to the prohibited transaction rules set forth in Section 503 of
       the Code.

            Investments   by  ERISA  Plans  are  subject  to  ERISA's  general
       fiduciary  requirements,  including   the  requirement  of   investment
       prudence  and diversification and the requirement  that an ERISA Plan's
       investments  be made  in accordance  with  the documents  governing the
       ERISA Plan.

       Prohibited Transactions

        General

            Section 406 of ERISA prohibits parties in interest with respect to
       an ERISA Plan from engaging in certain transactions involving such Plan
       and its assets  unless a statutory or administrative  exemption applies
       to the transaction. In  some cases, a civil penalty may  be assessed on
       non-exempt prohibited transactions pursuant to Section 502(i) of ERISA.
       Section  4975 of  the  Code  imposes certain  excise  taxes on  similar
       transactions  between   employee  benefit   plans  and   certain  other
       retirement plans  and  arrangements,  including  individual  retirement
       accounts or annuities and Keogh plans, subject thereto and disqualified
       persons  with  respect to  such plans  and arrangements  (together with
       ERISA Plans, "Plans").

            The United States Department of Labor ("Labor") has issued a final
       regulation  (29   C.F.R.  Section  2510.3-101)  containing   rules  for
       determining what  constitutes  the assets  of a  Plan. This  regulation
       provides that, as a general rule, the 
       underlying assets and properties of corporations,  partnerships, trusts
       and certain other entities in which a Plan makes an "equity investment"
       will be deemed for purposes of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code to be
       assets of the Plan unless certain exceptions apply.

            Under the terms of the regulation, the Trust may be deemed to hold
       plan assets  by reason of  a Plan's investment  in a  Certificate; such
       plan assets would  include an undivided interest in  the Mortgage Loans
       and any  other  assets  held  by  the Trust.  In  such  an  event,  the
       Depositor,  the Master  Servicer, any  Sub-Servicer,  the Trustee,  any
       insurer of the Mortgage Assets and other persons, in providing services
       with respect to  the assets of the Trust, may be fiduciaries subject to
       the fiduciary  responsibility provisions  of Title I  of ERISA,  or may
       otherwise be parties  in interest or disqualified persons, with respect
       to such  Plan. In  addition, transactions  involving such  assets could
       constitute  or result in  prohibited transactions under  Section 406 of
       ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code  unless such transactions are subject
       to a statutory or administrative exemption.

            The regulations contain a de minimis safe-harbor rule that exempts
       any entity  from plan  assets status  as long  as the aggregate  equity
       investment  in  such entity  by  plans  is  not significant.  For  this
       purpose,  equity participation  in the  entity  will be  significant if
       immediately after any acquisition of any equity interest in the entity,
       "benefit plan  investors" in  the aggregate,  own at  least 25%  of the
       value of any class of  equity interest (excluding equity interests held
       by persons who have discretionary  authority or control with respect to
       the assets of the entity (or by affiliates of such persons)).  "Benefit
       plan investors"  are defined as Plans as well as employee benefit plans
       not  subject to Title I of ERISA  (e.g., governmental plans and foreign
       plans)  and entities  whose  underlying assets  include plan  assets by
       reason of plan investment in such entities. The  25% limitation must be
       met with  respect to each class of  equity interests, regardless of the
       portion  of total equity value represented by such class, on an ongoing
       basis.
        
        Availability of Underwriter's Exemption for Certificates

            Labor has granted to Morgan Stanley  & Co. Incorporated Prohibited
       Transaction  Exemption 90-24, Exemption Application No. D-8019, 55 Fed.
       Reg.  20548 (1990) (the "Exemption") which exempts from the application
       of  the prohibited transaction rules  transactions relating to: (1) the
       acquisition,   sale  and  holding  by  Plans  of  certain  certificates
       representing an undivided interest in certain asset-backed pass-through
       trusts,  with respect to which Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated or any
       of its affiliates  is the sole underwriter or the manager or co-manager
       of the  underwriting syndicate;  and (2)  the servicing,  operation and
       management  of such asset-backed pass-through trusts, provided that the
       general conditions  and  certain  other  conditions set  forth  in  the
       Exemption are satisfied.

            General Conditions of  the Exemption. Section II of  the Exemption
       sets  forth the following  general conditions  which must  be satisfied
       before a transaction involving the acquisition, sale and holding of the
       Certificates  or  a  transaction  in  connection  with  the  servicing,
       operation and  management of  the Trust may  be eligible  for exemptive
       relief thereunder:

            (1) The acquisition  of the  Certificates by  a Plan  is on  terms
       (including  the price  for  such  Certificates) that  are  at least  as
       favorable  to the investing  Plan as they  would be in  an arm's-length
       transaction with an unrelated party;

            (2)  The  rights  and  interests  evidenced  by  the  Certificates
       acquired by the Plan are  not subordinated to the rights and  interests
       evidenced by other certificates of the Trust with respect to  the right
       to  receive payment  in the  event of default  or delinquencies  in the
       underlying assets of the Trust;

            (3) The Certificates  acquired by the Plan have  received a rating
       at the  time of such  acquisition that is in  one of the  three highest
       generic rating categories from any of Duff & Phelps Credit Rating  Co.,
       Fitch  Investors Service,  L.P., Moody's  Investors  Service, Inc.  and
       Standard & Poor's Ratings Services;

            (4)  The  Trustee  is  not  an affiliate  of  the  Depositor,  any
       Underwriter, the Master  Servicer, any insurer of the  Mortgage Assets,
       any  borrower  whose obligations  under  one  or  more  Mortgage  Loans
       constitute more than 5% of  the aggregate unamortized principal balance
       of the assets in the Trust, or any of their respective  affiliates (the
       "Restricted Group");

            (5)  The  sum  of  all  payments  made  to  and  retained  by  the
       Underwriter in  connection with  the distribution  of the  Certificates
       represents  not more than reasonable compensation for underwriting such
       Certificates; the sum of all payments made to and retained by the Asset
       Seller  pursuant  to  the sale  of  the  Mortgage  Loans to  the  Trust
       represents not more  than the fair market value of such Mortgage Loans;
       the sum  of all payments  made to and  retained by the  Master Servicer
       represent not 
       more  than reasonable compensation  for the Master  Servicer's services
       under the Pooling Agreement and  reimbursement of the Master Servicer's
       reasonable expenses in connection therewith; and

            (6) The  Plan  investing in  the  Certificates is  an  "accredited
       investor"  as  defined  in  Rule  501(a)(1)  of  Regulation  D  of  the
       Securities and Exchange Commission under  the Securities Act of 1933 as
       amended.

            Before purchasing  a Certificate in  reliance on the  Exemption, a
       fiduciary of  a Plan  should itself confirm  (a) that  the Certificates
       constitute "certificates" for  purposes of the  Exemption and (b)  that
       the  general  conditions  and  other  requirements  set  forth  in  the
       Exemption would be satisfied.

       Review by Plan Fiduciaries

            Any   Plan  fiduciary   considering   whether   to  purchase   any
       Certificates  on behalf  of  a  Plan should  consult  with its  counsel
       regarding  the  applicability  of   the  fiduciary  responsibility  and
       prohibited  transaction  provisions  of  ERISA  and the  Code  to  such
       investment. Among other  things, before purchasing any  Certificates, a
       fiduciary  of  a  Plan should  make  its own  determination  as  to the
       availability of  the exemptive  relief provided  in the Exemption,  and
       also  consider the  availability of  any  other prohibited  transaction
       exemptions. In  this regard,  purchasers that  are insurance  companies
       should  determine  the  extent to  which  Prohibited  Transaction Class
       Exemption 95-60 (for  certain transactions involving  insurance company
       general  accounts) may  be available.  The  Prospectus Supplement  with
       respect to a series of Certificates  may contain additional information
       regarding the  application  of the  Exemption,  Prohibited  Transaction
       Class  Exemption 83-1 (for certain transactions involving mortgage pool
       investment  trusts),  or any  other  exemption,  with  respect  to  the
       Certificates offered thereby.

                                   LEGAL INVESTMENT

            The  Prospectus Supplement for each series of Offered Certificates
       will  identify  those classes  of Offered  Certificates, if  any, which
       constitute  "mortgage related securities" for purposes of the Secondary
       Mortgage  Market Enhancement Act  of 1984, as  amended ("SMMEA"). Those
       classes of Offered  Certificates that (i) are  rated in one of  the two
       highest rating categories by  one or more Rating Agencies and  (ii) are
       part of a series representing interests in, or secured by, a Trust Fund
       consisting of Mortgage Loans or  MBS, provided that such Mortgage Loans
       (or the Mortgage Loans underlying  the MBS) are secured by  first liens
       on  Mortgaged  Property  and  were   originated  by  certain  types  of
       originators   as  specified  in   SMMEA,  will  be   "mortgage  related
       securities"  for purposes  of  SMMEA  (the  "SMMEA  Certificates").  As
       "mortgage related securities,"  the SMMEA Certificates will  constitute
       legal  investments  for  persons,  trusts, corporations,  partnerships,
       associations, business trusts and business entities (including, but not
       limited to,  state-chartered savings  banks, commercial  banks, savings
       and loan associations and insurance  companies, as well as trustees and
       state  government employee retirement  systems) created pursuant  to or
       existing under the laws of the United States or of any state (including
       the District of Columbia and Puerto  Rico) whose authorized investments
       are  subject  to  state  regulation  to the  same  extent  that,  under
       applicable law, obligations issued by or guaranteed as to principal and
       interest by the United States  or any agency or instrumentality thereof
       constitute legal investments  for such entities.  Pursuant to SMMEA,  a
       number of states enacted legislation, before the October 4, 1991 cutoff
       established by SMMEA for such  enactments, limiting to varying  extents
       the ability of certain entities (in particular, insurance companies) to
       invest in mortgage  related securities, in most cases  by requiring the
       affected  investors to  rely solely  upon existing  state law,  and not
       SMMEA. Pursuant to Section 347  of the Riegle Community Development and
       Regulatory Improvement  Act of 1994,  which amended  the definition  of
       "mortgage related security"  (effective December 31, 1996)  to include,
       in relevant  part, Offered  Certificates satisfying  the rating,  first
       lien  and  qualified  originator  requirements  for  "mortgage  related
       securities," but representing interests in, or secured by, a Trust Fund
       consisting, in whole or in part, of first liens on one or more  parcels
       of  real  estate  upon  which   are  located  one  or  more  commercial
       structures, states were  authorized to enact legislation,  on or before
       September  23,  2001,   specifically  referring  to  Section   347  and
       prohibiting  or  restricting  the purchase,  holding  or  investment by
       state-regulated   entities  in  such  types  of  Offered  Certificates.
       Investors affected by such legislation  will be authorized to invest in
       SMMEA Certificates only to the extent provided in such legislation.

            SMMEA   also   amended   the   legal   investment   authority   of
       federally-chartered depository institutions as follows: federal savings
       and loan associations and federal savings  banks may invest in, sell or
       otherwise deal in  "mortgage related securities" without  limitation as
       to  the percentage of their assets  represented thereby, federal credit
       unions may invest  in such securities, and national  banks may purchase
       such securities for their own account without regard to the limitations
       generally applicable  to investment securities  set forth in  12 U.S.C.
       Section 24 (Seventh),  subject in each case to such  regulations as the
       applicable  federal   regulatory  authority  may  prescribe.   In  this
       connection, the Office  of the Comptroller of the  Currency (the "OCC")
       has  amended 12 C.F.R. Part  1 to authorize  national banks to purchase
       and sell for their own account, without limitation as to a 
       percentage of the bank's capital and surplus (but subject to compliance
       with  certain general standards  concerning "safety and  soundness" and
       retention  of credit  information in  12 C.F.R.  Section 1.5),  certain
       "Type IV  securities," defined in  12 C.F.R. Section 1.2(1)  to include
       certain  "commercial  mortgage-related   securities"  and  "residential
       mortgage-related    securities."    As    so    defined,    "commercial
       mortgage-related security" and  "residential mortgage-related security"
       mean,  in relevant part, "mortgage-related security" within the meaning
       of SMMEA, provided that, in  the case of a "commercial mortgage-related
       security," it "represents ownership of a promissory note or certificate
       of interest or  participation that is directly secured by  a first lien
       on one or more parcels of real estate upon which one or more commercial
       structures are located and that is fully secured by interests in a pool
       of  loans  to  numerous  obligors."  In  the  absence  of  any  rule or
       administrative  interpretation by the  OCC defining the  term "numerous
       obligors," no representation is made as to whether any class of Offered
       Certificates will qualify as  "commercial mortgage-related securities,"
       and thus  as "Type  IV securities," for  investment by  national banks.
       Federal  credit  unions   should  review  the  National   Credit  Union
       Administration ("NCUA") Letter to Credit  Unions No. 96, as modified by
       Letter to  Credit Unions No.  108, which includes guidelines  to assist
       federal  credit  unions  in making  investment  decisions  for mortgage
       related securities. The  NCUA has adopted rules, codified  as 12 C.F.R.
       Section  703.5(f)-(k),  which  prohibit   federal  credit  unions  from
       investing  in certain mortgage related securities (including securities
       such  as  certain series  or classes  of Offered  Certificates), except
       under limited  circumstances. Effective January  1, 1998, the  NCUA has
       amended its rules governing investments  by federal credit unions at 12
       C.F.R. Part 703; the revised rules will permit investments in "mortgage
       related  securities"  under  certain limited  circumstances,  but  will
       prohibit investments in stripped mortgage related securities,  residual
       interests  in  mortgage  related securities,  and  commercial  mortgage
       related  securities, unless  the  credit  union  has  obtained  written
       approval from the NCUA to participate in the "investment pilot program"
       described in 12 C.F.R. Section 703.140.

            All  depository  institutions  considering an  investment  in  the
       Offered Certificates should review the "Supervisory Policy Statement on
       Securities Activities"  dated January  28, 1992,  as revised April  15,
       1994 (the  "Policy Statement")  of the  Federal Financial  Institutions
       Examination  Council. The Policy  Statement, which has  been adopted by
       the  Board of  Governors of  the  Federal Reserve  System, the  Federal
       Deposit  Insurance Corporation,  the  OCC  and  the  Office  of  Thrift
       Supervision,  and by the  NCUA (with certain  modifications), prohibits
       depository institutions  from investing in  certain "high-risk mortgage
       securities" (including securities such as certain series or  classes of
       the Offered Certificates), except under limited circumstances, and sets
       forth   certain  investment  practices  deemed  to  be  unsuitable  for
       regulated institutions.

            Institutions whose investment activities are subject to regulation
       by  federal or  state  authorities should  review  rules, policies  and
       guidelines  adopted  from  time  to time  by  such  authorities  before
       purchasing any Offered Certificates,  as certain series or  classes may
       be deemed unsuitable investments, or may otherwise be restricted, under
       such rules, policies  or guidelines (in certain  instances irrespective
       of SMMEA).

            The foregoing does  not take into consideration  the applicability
       of  statutes,  rules,  regulations, orders,  guidelines  or  agreements
       generally  governing  investments   made  by  a   particular  investor,
       including,  but  not   limited  to,   "prudent  investor"   provisions,
       percentage-of-assets limits,  provisions which may restrict or prohibit
       investment in  securities which are  not "interest bearing"  or "income
       paying," and,  with  regard  to  any  Offered  Certificates  issued  in
       book-entry  form, provisions which may restrict or prohibit investments
       in securities which are issued in book-entry form.

            If specified in  the related Prospectus Supplement,  other classes
       of Offered  Certificates offered pursuant  to this Prospectus  will not
       constitute  "mortgage related securities"  under SMMEA. The appropriate
       characterization  of  such  Offered Certificates  under  various  legal
       investment  restrictions, and thus the ability  of investors subject to
       these  restrictions to  purchase  such  Offered  Certificates,  may  be
       subject to significant interpretive uncertainties.

            Except as  to the status  of SMMEA Certificates identified  in the
       Prospectus Supplement  for a  series as  "mortgage related  securities"
       under  SMMEA,   no  representations   are  made   as   to  the   proper
       characterization  of the Offered  Certificates for legal  investment or
       financial  institution  regulatory purposes,  or as  to the  ability of
       particular   investors  to  purchase  any  Offered  Certificates  under
       applicable legal  investment restrictions. The  uncertainties described
       above  (and any  unfavorable  future  determinations  concerning  legal
       investment  or financial institution  regulatory characteristics of the
       Offered Certificates) may adversely affect the liquidity of the Offered
       Certificates.

            Investors   should  consult  with  their  own  legal  advisors  in
       determining whether and to what  extent the Offered Certificates of any
       class  constitute legal  investments  or  are  subject  to  investment,
       capital  or other restrictions,  and, if applicable,  whether SMMEA has
       been overridden in any jurisdiction relevant to such investor.

                     PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

            The Offered Certificates offered hereby and  by the Supplements to
       this  Prospectus will  be offered  in series.  The distribution  of the
       Certificates  may  be  effected  from  time  to  time in  one  or  more
       transactions,  including negotiated  transactions,  at  a fixed  public
       offering price  or at varying  prices to be  determined at the  time of
       sale or  at the  time of commitment  therefor. If  so specified  in the
       related  Prospectus   Supplement,  the  Offered  Certificates  will  be
       distributed in a firm commitment underwriting, subject to the terms and
       conditions  of the  underwriting  agreement, by  Morgan  Stanley &  Co.
       Incorporated  ("Morgan  Stanley")  acting  as  underwriter  with  other
       underwriters,  if any,  named  therein. In  such event,  the Prospectus
       Supplement may also specify that the underwriters will not be obligated
       to  pay  for  any  Offered  Certificates  agreed  to  be  purchased  by
       purchasers pursuant to purchase agreements acceptable to the Depositor.
       In connection with the sale  of Offered Certificates, underwriters  may
       receive compensation  from the Depositor or from  purchasers of Offered
       Certificates in  the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. The
       Prospectus Supplement will  describe any such compensation  paid by the
       Depositor.

            Alternatively, the  Prospectus Supplement may specify that Offered
       Certificates will be  distributed by Morgan Stanley acting  as agent or
       in some cases as principal with respect to Offered Certificates that it
       has previously purchased or agreed  to purchase. If Morgan Stanley acts
       as  agent in  the sale  of  Offered Certificates,  Morgan Stanley  will
       receive a selling commission with respect to such Offered Certificates,
       depending  on  market conditions,  expressed  as  a percentage  of  the
       aggregate  Certificate Balance  or  notional  amount  of  such  Offered
       Certificates  as of  the Cut-off  Date. The  exact percentage  for each
       series  of Certificates  will be  disclosed  in the  related Prospectus
       Supplement. To  the  extent  that Morgan  Stanley  elects  to  purchase
       Offered Certificates as principal, Morgan Stanley may realize losses or
       profits based  upon the difference  between its purchase price  and the
       sales  price.  The Prospectus  Supplement  with respect  to  any series
       offered  other  than  through  underwriters  will  contain  information
       regarding the nature of such offering and any  agreements to be entered
       into between the  Depositor and purchasers  of Offered Certificates  of
       such series.

            The Depositor will  indemnify Morgan Stanley and  any underwriters
       against  certain  civil liabilities,  including  liabilities  under the
       Securities Act of  1933, or will contribute to  payments Morgan Stanley
       and any underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

            In  the  ordinary  course  of business,  Morgan  Stanley  and  the
       Depositor  may engage in various securities and financing transactions,
       including repurchase  agreements to  provide interim  financing of  the
       Depositor's mortgage loans  pending the sale of such  mortgage loans or
       interests therein, including the Certificates.

            Offered  Certificates  will  be sold  primarily  to  institutional
       investors. Purchasers of Offered Certificates, including dealers,  may,
       depending on the  facts and circumstances of such  purchases, be deemed
       to be "underwriters"  within the meaning of the  Securities Act of 1933
       in connection with reoffers and  sales by them of Offered Certificates.
       Certificateholders should  consult with  their legal  advisors in  this
       regard prior to any such reoffer or sale.

            As  to each series of Certificates, only those classes rated in an
       investment grade rating  category by any Rating Agency  will be offered
       hereby. Any non-investment-grade class may be initially retained by the
       Depositor, and  may be  sold by the  Depositor at  any time  in private
       transactions.

                                    LEGAL MATTERS

            Certain  legal  matters  in   connection  with  the  Certificates,
       including  certain federal income tax consequences, will be passed upon
       for the  Depositor by Sidley & Austin,  New York, New York  or Latham &
       Watkins, New York, New York or Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft, New York,
       New York or Brown & Wood LLP, New  York, New York or such other counsel
       as may be specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.

                                FINANCIAL INFORMATION

            A new  Trust Fund will  be formed with  respect to each  series of
       Certificates and no  Trust Fund will engage in  any business activities
       or have any assets or obligations prior  to the issuance of the related
       series  of Certificates.  Accordingly,  no  financial  statements  with
       respect to any Trust Fund will be included in this Prospectus or in the
       related Prospectus Supplement.

                                        RATING

            It  is  a  condition  to the  issuance  of  any  class of  Offered
       Certificates that they shall have  been rated not lower than investment
       grade, that  is, in  one of the  four highest  rating categories,  by a
       Rating Agency.

            Ratings   on  mortgage   pass-through  certificates   address  the
       likelihood of receipt by certificateholders of all distributions on the
       underlying  mortgage loans. These ratings address the structural, legal
       and  issuer-related  aspects  associated with  such  certificates,  the
       nature  of the underlying mortgage loans  and the credit quality of the
       guarantor, if any. Ratings on mortgage pass-through certificates do not
       represent any assessment of the likelihood of  principal prepayments by
       mortgagors or of the degree by which such prepayments might differ from
       those  originally anticipated.  As a  result,  certificateholders might
       suffer a  lower than  anticipated yield, and,  in addition,  holders of
       stripped interest certificates  in extreme cases  might fail to  recoup
       their initial investments.

            A security  rating is not  a recommendation  to buy, sell  or hold
       securities and may  be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by
       the  assigning  rating  organization. Each  security  rating  should be
       evaluated independently of any other security rating.

ITEM 15.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

     Under Section  VII of the  proposed form of Underwriting  Agreement, the
Underwriter  is obligated under  certain circumstances to  indemnify officers
and directors  of Morgan Stanley Capital I Inc.  (the "Company") who sign the
Registration  Statement,  and  certain controlling  persons  of  the Company,
against certain liabilities,  including liabilities under the  Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Act").

     The  Company's  By-laws  provide for  indemnification  of  directors and
officers of the Company to the full extent permitted by Delaware law.

     Section  145  of  the  Delaware  General  Corporation  Law provides,  in
substance, that Delaware  corporations shall have the power,  under specified
circumstances, to indemnify  their directors, officers, employees  and agents
in connection with  actions, suits or proceedings  brought against them by  a
third party or  in the right of the  corporation, by reason of  the fact that
they  are or  were such  directors,  officers, employees  or agents,  against
expenses incurred in any such action, suit or proceeding.

     The  Pooling  and Servicing  Agreement  will provide  that  no director,
officer, employee or agent of the Company will be liable to the Trust Fund or
the Certificateholders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking
of any  action pursuant to  the Pooling and  Servicing Agreement, except  for
such  person's  own  misfeasance,  bad  faith  or  gross  negligence  in  the
performance of  duties.   The Pooling and  Servicing Agreements  will provide
further  that, with  the  exceptions  stated  above, any  director,  officer,
employee or agent of the Company will be indemnified and held harmless by the
Trust Fund against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with
any  legal action  relating to  the Pooling  and  Servicing Agreement  or the
Certificates, other than any  loss, liability or expense  (i) related to  any
specific Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans  (except as any such loss, liability
or  expense shall  be  otherwise  reimbursable pursuant  to  the Pooling  and
Servicing Agreement), (ii)  incurred in connection with any  violation by him
or her of any state or federal securities law or (iii) imposed by any  taxing
authority if such loss, liability or expense is not specifically reimbursable
pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

ITEM 17.  UNDERTAKINGS.

A.   Undertaking in respect of indemnification.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities  arising under the Act may be
permitted to  directors, officers and  controlling persons of  the Registrant
pursuant  to the  provisions described  in Item  15 above, 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  against the  Registrant 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 of 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.

B.   Undertaking pursuant to Rule 415 Offering.

     The Registrant hereby undertakes:

          (1)  To file, during any period in which offers  or sales are being
     made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

               (i)  to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
          the Act;

              (ii)  to reflect in the Prospectus any facts  or events arising
          after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most
          recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,  individually or in
          the  aggregate, represent a  fundamental change in  the information
          set forth in the Registration Statement;

             (iii)  to include any  material information with respect  to the
          plan of distribution  not previously disclosed in  the Registration
          Statement  or  any  material  change of  such  information  in  the
          Registration Statement;

          (2)  That, for the purpose  of determining any liability under  the
     Act, each  such post-effective amendment  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; and

          (3)  To  remove  from  registration by  means  of  a post-effective
     amendment any of the securities  being registered which remain unsold at
     the termination of the offering.

C.   Undertaking in respect of incorporation by reference.  

     The  Registrant hereby undertakes that, for  purposes of determining any
liability  under the  Act,  each  filing of  the  Registrant's annual  report
pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act
of  1934 that  is incorporated  by reference  in this  registration statement
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.

D.   Undertaking  in respect of equity offerings of nonreporting Registrants.

     The Registrant  hereby undertakes to  provide to the underwriter  at the
closing  specified in  the  underwriting  agreements,  certificates  in  such
denominations and  registered in such names as required by the underwriter to
permit delivery to each purchaser.

E.   Undertaking pursuant to Rule 430A

     The registrant hereby undertakes that:

     (1)   For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933, 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  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 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.


                                  SIGNATURES
   
     Pursuant  to  the  requirements  of  the Securities  Act  of  1933,  the
Registrant certifies that it has reasonable  grounds to believe that it meets
all of the  requirements for  filing on  Form S-3  and has  duly caused  this
Amendment No. 1 to the Registration  Statement  to be  signed  on  its  behalf
by  the  undersigned, thereunto duly  authorized, in the  City of New  York,

          Re:  Morgan Stanley Capital I Inc.
               Registration Statement on Form S-3
               ----------------------------------

Ladies and Gentlemen:
   
     We have  acted as counsel for Morgan Stanley  Capital I Inc., a Delaware
corporation  (the  "Company"),  in  connection  with  the  preparation  of  a
registration statement on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") relating to
the    Mortgage   Pass-Through    Certificates    specified   therein    (the
"Certificates"),  issuable in  series (each, a  "Series").   Pursuant to Rule 
429 of the Secuities and Exchange Commission Rules and Regulations under  the 
Securities Act of 1933, as  amended  (the "1933 Act"),  the  Prospectuses and 
Prospectus Supplements contained in the Registration Statement also relate to
the Company's registration statement No. 33-46723 as previously filed on Form
S-3, registration statement No. 33-45042 as previously filed on Form S-11 and
registration statement  No. 333-26667  as  previously filed on Form S-3.  The 
Registration  Statement  is  being  filed  with  the  Securities and Exchange  
Commission under the  1933 Act.   As set forth in the Registration Statement,
each  Series  of  Certificates  will  be issued  under  and  pursuant to  the  
conditions of  a separate  pooling and  servicing agreement (each, a "Pooling  
and  Servicing  Agreement")  among  the  Company, a  trustee  and  a  master  
servicer to  be identified in the prospectus supplement  for such  Series  of 
Certificates  (the  "Trustee"  and  the  "Master  Servicer"  for such Series, 
respectively).

    

     We have examined  copies of the  Company's Certificate of  Incorporation
and  By-laws,  a form  of  Pooling  and  Servicing  Agreement, the  forms  of
Certificates included  in the Pooling  and Servicing Agreement, the  forms of
prospectus  supplements  and  prospectuses   contained  in  the  Registration
Statement   (the   "Prospectus   Supplements"   and   "Base    Prospectuses",
respectively)  and such  other records,  documents  and statutes  as we  have
deemed necessary for purposes of this opinion.

     Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

     1.   When a Pooling and Servicing Agreement for a Series of Certificates
has been duly and validly  authorized by all necessary action on  the part of
the Company and  has been  duly executed  and delivered by  the Company,  the
Master  Servicer, the Trustee  and any other  party thereto  for such Series,
such  Pooling and  Servicing Agreement  will constitute  a valid  and binding
agreement of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as
enforcement thereof  may be limited  by bankruptcy, insolvency or  other laws
relating to  or affecting  creditors' rights generally  or by  general equity
principles.

     2.   When  a Series  of Certificates  has  been duly  authorized by  all
necessary action on  the part of  the Company (subject  to the terms  thereof
otherwise  being  in compliance  with  applicable  law  at such  time),  duly
executed and authenticated by the Trustee  for such Series in accordance with
the  terms of the  related Pooling  and Servicing  Agreement, and  issued and
delivered  against payment  therefor  as  contemplated  in  the  Registration
Statement,  the Certificates  in  such  Series will  be  legally and  validly
issued,  fully  paid and  nonassessable,  and  the  holders thereof  will  be
entitled to the benefits of such Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

     3.   The information set  forth in the  Prospectus Supplements and  Base
Prospectuses under  the caption "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences," to
the extent  that it  constitutes  matters of  law  or legal  conclusions,  is
correct in all material respects.

     We hereby consent to the use of  our name in the Base Prospectuses under
the caption "Certain  Federal Income Tax Consequences" and  in the Prospectus
Supplements and  Base Prospectuses under  the caption "Legal Matters"  and to
the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.

                                   Very truly yours,


                                   /s/ Brown & Wood LLP
