public.  The proceeds to the depositor  from the sale of the Class M-2 and Class
M-3 Certificates to Lehman Brothers Inc. will be $6,025,038.91  before deducting
expenses.

underwriting  agreement  among the  depositor,  the master  servicer  and Lehman

Lehman  Brothers Inc. in the resale of the Class M-2 and Class M-3  Certificates
may  receive  compensation  from  the  depositor  in the  form of  discounts  or
commissions or, in the case of dealers,  compensation  from Lehman Brothers Inc.
in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. The underwriting agreement
for the Class M-2 and Class M-3  Certificates  provides that the depositor  will
indemnify  Lehman  Brothers Inc.  against  certain civil  liabilities  under the

made in respect  thereof.  There is currently no secondary  market for the Class
M-2 and  Class  M-3  Certificates.  There  can be no  assurance  that an  active
secondary market will develop, or if it does develop, that it will continue.
