                                 SERIES 1998-C2

The Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 1998-C2 (the "Certificates") will
consist of twelve classes (each, a "Class") of regular  Certificates,  including
the seven Classes of  Certificates  offered hereby  (collectively,  the "Offered
Certificates").  The Certificates,  in the aggregate,  will represent the entire
undivided beneficial ownership interest in a trust fund (the "Trust Fund") to be
established by Merrill Lynch Mortgage Investors, Inc. (the "Depositor"), that is
expected to consist  primarily of a segregated pool (the "Mortgage Pool") of 401
conventional,  fixed rate mortgage loans (the "Mortgage Loans") secured by first
liens  on  405  commercial  and  multifamily   properties  (each,  a  "Mortgaged
Property"). The Depositor will acquire approximately 42% by Initial Pool Balance
(as defined  below) of the Mortgage Loans from Daiwa Finance Corp. or Daiwa Real
Estate  Finance  Corp.  and  approximately  58% by Initial  Pool  Balance of the
Mortgage Loans from Merrill Lynch  Mortgage  Capital Inc. As of the Cut-Off Date
(as defined herein),  the Mortgage Loans had an aggregate principal balance (the
"Initial Pool Balance") of approximately  $1,088,335,035,  after  application of
all payments of principal  due on or before such date,  whether or not received.
The   Offered   Certificates   bear  the   class   designations   and  have  the
characteristics  set forth in the table below.  Simultaneously with the issuance
of the Offered  Certificates,  the Private Certificates (as defined herein) will
be issued. Only the Offered Certificates are offered hereby.

(1)  Subject to a permitted variance of plus or minus 5%.

(2)  The  Rated  Final  Distribution  Date is the  first  Distribution  Date (as
     defined  herein)  that  follows  the second  anniversary  of the end of the
     amortization  term for the Mortgage Loan that, as of the Cut-Off Date,  has
     the longest remaining amortization term. See "RATINGS" herein.

(3)  By each of Moody's  Investors  Service,  Inc. and Standard & Poor's Ratings
     Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

(4)  The  Pass-Through  Rates  applicable  to the Class B,  Class C, Class D and
     Class E Certificates  will equal the Weighted Average Net Mortgage Rate (as
     defined herein) minus    %,    %,    % and    %, respectively.

(5)  The Class IO Certificates  will not have a principal  balance nor will they
     entitle the holders thereof to receive distributions of principal, but will
     entitle such holders to receive payments of interest equal to the aggregate
     of the interest  accrued on the notional  amount of each of its  Components
     (as defined  herein).  See  "DESCRIPTION  OF THE  CERTIFICATES--Certificate
     Balances and Notional Amounts" and "--Pass-Through Rates" herein.

                                   ----------

     The Offered Certificates will be offered by Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner &
Smith   Incorporated  and  Daiwa   Securities   America  Inc.   (together,   the
"Underwriters")  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 sale of the Offered Certificates,  before deducting expenses payable by
the  Depositor,  will  be  approximately $   , which includes accrued  interest.
See "METHOD OF DISTRIBUTION" herein.

     The Offered  Certificates are offered by the  Underwriters  when, as and if
issued and delivered to and accepted by the Underwriters,  subject to prior sale
and subject to the Underwriters'  right to reject orders in whole or in part. It
is expected that the Offered  Certificates  will be delivered in book-entry form
through the Same-Day Funds Settlement  System of The Depository Trust Company on
or about March 26, 1998.

                                   ----------

           The date of this Prospectus Supplement is March    , 1998.


<PAGE>

(cover continued)

     On or before the date the  Certificates  are  issued,  the  Depositor  will
transfer the  Mortgage  Loans,  without  recourse,  to Norwest  Bank  Minnesota,
National Association,  as trustee of the Trust Fund (the "Trustee"), in exchange
for the Certificates.

     As and to the extent described  herein,  the Private  Certificates  will be
subordinate to the Offered Certificates; the Class B, Class C, Class D and Class
E  Certificates  will be  subordinate  to the Class A-1,  Class A-2 and Class IO
Certificates;  the Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates will be subordinate
to the  Class B  Certificates;  the  Class D and  Class E  Certificates  will be
subordinate to the Class C  Certificates;  and the Class E Certificates  will be
subordinate  to the  Class D  Certificates.  Distributions  of  interest  on and
principal of the Certificates will be made, to the extent of available funds, on
the 15th day of each month or, if any such 15th day is not a business  day, then
on the next  succeeding  business  day,  commencing  April  16,  1998  (each,  a
"Distribution  Date");  provided however,  that the Distribution Date will be no
earlier than the fourth  business day following the related  Determination  Date
(as defined  herein).  The holders of the Certificates may also receive portions
of any Prepayment  Premiums (as defined herein) to the extent described  herein.
See "DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES--Distributions" herein.

     The yield to maturity on each Class of Offered Certificates will depend on,
among other  things,  the rate and timing of principal  payments  (including  by
reason of prepayments, defaults and liquidations) on the Mortgage Loans that are
applied in  reduction  of the  Certificate  Balance of such Class.  THE YIELD TO
MATURITY ON THE CLASS IO CERTIFICATES  WILL BE HIGHLY  SENSITIVE TO THE RATE AND
TIMING OF PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS  (INCLUDING BY REASON OF PREPAYMENTS,  DEFAULTS AND
LIQUIDATIONS)  ON THE MORTGAGE LOANS AND INVESTORS IN THE CLASS IO  CERTIFICATES
SHOULD FULLY CONSIDER THE ASSOCIATED RISKS, INCLUDING THE RISK THAT A RAPID RATE
OF  PREPAYMENT  OF THE  MORTGAGE  LOANS  COULD  RESULT  IN THE  FAILURE  OF SUCH
INVESTORS TO FULLY RECOUP THEIR INITIAL INVESTMENTS. The allocation to any Class
of Offered  Certificates of any Prepayment Premium may be insufficient to offset
fully the adverse effects on the reduction to the anticipated  yield to maturity
resulting from the corresponding  principal prepayment.  Any delay in collection
of a Balloon  Payment (as defined herein) due at the maturity of a Mortgage Loan
or any delay in the repayment of the principal balance of a Mortgage Loan by its
Anticipated  Repayment Date (as defined  herein) will likely extend the weighted
average  life of the  Class or  Classes  of  Offered  Certificates  entitled  to
distributions  in respect of principal  as of the date such Balloon  Payment was
due  or  as  of  such  Anticipated  Repayment  Date.  See  "DESCRIPTION  OF  THE
CERTIFICATES--Certificate  Balances and Notional Amounts" and "--Distributions,"
"YIELD  AND   MATURITY   CONSIDERATIONS"   and   "SERVICING   OF  THE   MORTGAGE
LOANS--Modifications,  Waivers and Amendments"  herein,  and "YIELD AND MATURITY
CONSIDERATIONS"  and "RISK  FACTORS--Prepayments;  Average Life of Certificates;
Yields" in the Prospectus.

     As described herein, one or more separate "real estate mortgage  investment
conduit"  ("REMIC")  elections  will be made with  respect to the Trust Fund for
federal income tax purposes.  The Offered  Certificates will constitute "regular
interests" in one of such REMICs. See "MATERIAL FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES"
herein and in the Prospectus.

     There is  currently no secondary  market for the Offered  Certificates  and
there can be no  assurance  that any such  market  will  develop  or, if it does
develop,  that it will  continue.  The  Underwriters  intend to make a secondary
market in the Offered  Certificates,  but have no obligation to do so. See "RISK
FACTORS--The Certificates--Limited Liquidity" herein.

                                   ----------

                                  RISK FACTORS

     Prospective  purchasers  of the Offered  Certificates  of any Class  should
consider,  among other things,  the following  risk factors (as well as the risk
factors set forth under "RISK FACTORS" in the  Prospectus) in connection with an
investment  therein.  Additional  risk  factors are set forth  elsewhere in this
Prospectus  Supplement  under separate  headings in connection with  discussions
regarding  particular  aspects  of  assets  of the  Trust  Fund  or the  Offered
Certificates. 

THE CERTIFICATES

     Limited  Liquidity.  There is currently no secondary market for the Offered
Certificates.  While  each  of the  Underwriters  currently  intends  to  make a
secondary market in the Offered Certificates, none is under any obligation to do
so.  Accordingly,  there can be no  assurance  that a  secondary  market for the
Offered Certificates will develop. Moreover, if a secondary market does develop,
there  can  be no  assurance  that  it  will  provide  holders  of  the  Offered
Certificates  with liquidity of investment or that it will continue for the life
of the  Offered  Certificates.  Any  such  secondary  market  may  provide  less
liquidity to investors than any comparable  market for securities that evidence,
for example,  interests solely in single-family mortgage loans. The Certificates
will not be listed on any securities exchange.

     Certain  Yield  and  Maturity  Considerations.  The  yield  on any  Offered
Certificate  that is  purchased at a discount or premium will be affected by (i)
the rate and timing of principal payments and collections on the Mortgage Loans,
particularly  unscheduled  payments  or  collections  in the  form of  voluntary
prepayments of principal or unscheduled recoveries of principal due to defaults,
casualties or condemnations  whether before or after the scheduled maturity date
of the related  Mortgage Loans,  and (ii) the order of priority of distributions
of principal in respect of the Certificates.  The rate and timing of unscheduled
payments and  collections  of principal on the Mortgage  Loans is  impossible to
accurately  predict and will be  affected  by a variety of  factors,  including,
without  limitation,  the level of prevailing  interest  rates,  restrictions on
voluntary  prepayments contained in the promissory notes (the "Mortgage Notes"),
the availability of mortgage credit and other economic, demographic, geographic,
tax and legal factors.  In general,  however,  if prevailing interest rates fall
significantly  below the Mortgage Rates on the Mortgage  Loans,  borrowers under
the  Mortgage  Loans will have an increased  incentive  to prepay.  As described
herein,  the Principal  Distribution  Amount for each  Distribution Date will be
distributable  entirely in reduction of the Certificate Balance of the Class A-1
Certificates until the Certificate  Balance thereof is reduced to zero, and will
thereafter be  distributable  in its entirety in respect of each remaining Class
of  Certificates  (except  for  the  Class  IO  Certificates),  sequentially  in
alphabetical  and numerical  order of Class  designation,  until the Certificate
Balance of each such Class is, in turn, reduced to zero. See "DESCRIPTION OF THE
CERTIFICATES--Distributions--Application  of the Available  Distribution Amount"
herein. Accordingly, the actual rate of principal payments on the Mortgage Loans
may have different  effects on the yields of the  respective  Classes of Offered
Certificates.  Any payment of principal in reduction of the Certificate  Balance
of any Class of  Sequential  Pay  Certificates  will  result in a  corresponding
reduction in the notional  amount of the related  Component.  Thus, the yield on
the Class IO Certificates will be extremely  sensitive to the rate and timing of
principal  payments on the Mortgage Loans,  and the faster the rate at which the
notional amounts of the Components are reduced, the greater will be the negative
effect on the yield of the Class IO  Certificates,  to the extent such effect is
not offset by distributions of a portion of any applicable  Prepayment  Premiums
to   the   holders   thereof,   as   described   under   "DESCRIPTION   OF   THE
CERTIFICATES--Distributions--Allocation   of  Prepayment  Premiums"  herein.  In
addition,  the Mortgage Loans may not require the payment of Prepayment Premiums
in the event of involuntary prepayments resulting from casualty or condemnation.
Accordingly,  prospective investors in the Class IO Certificates should consider
the associated risks, including the risk that a rapid rate of prepayments on the
Mortgage  Loans could  result in the failure of such  investors  to recoup their
initial investments.

     The yield on any Offered  Certificate also will be affected by the rate and
timing of losses attributable to defaults on the Mortgage Loans, the severity of
such losses and the extent to which such losses and related expenses are applied
in reduction of the actual or notional  principal  amount of such Certificate or
otherwise reduce the amount of funds available for distribution to the holder of
such Certificate.  To the extent described herein, the Private  Certificates are
subordinate  in right and time of payment to the Offered  Certificates  and will
bear  shortfalls in collections  and losses  incurred in respect of the Mortgage
Loans prior to the Offered  Certificates;  and the Class B, Class C, Class D and
Class E Certificates  are  subordinate in right and time of payment to the Class
A-1, Class A-2 and Class IO Certificates

                                      S-27

and will bear such  shortfalls in collections and losses prior to the Class A-1,
Class A-2 and Class IO  Certificates,  in  reverse  alphabetical  order of Class
designation.  Even  though the Class A-2  Certificates  will  receive  principal
payments only after the Certificate  Balance of the Class A-1  Certificates  has
been  reduced  to zero,  the  Class A-1 and  Class  A-2  Certificates  will bear
shortfalls in collections  and losses  incurred in respect of the Mortgage Loans
pro  rata in  proportion  to their  outstanding  Certificate  Balances.  On each
Distribution Date, following all distributions on the Certificates to be made on
such date,  the  aggregate  of all  Realized  Losses and  Additional  Trust Fund
Expenses that have been  incurred  since the Cut-off Date through the end of the
related  Collection  Period and that have not  previously  been allocated to the
Certificates  will be allocated,  subject to the limitations  described  herein,
first to the  Private  Certificates  in the order  described  in the Pooling and
Servicing  Agreement,  and then to the  Class E,  Class D,  Class C and  Class B
Certificates,  in that order,  until the Certificate  Balance of each such Class
has  been  reduced  to zero.  Thereafter  any  additional  Realized  Losses  and
Additional  Trust Fund Expenses will be allocated to the Class A-1 and Class A-2
Certificates,  pro rata in proportion to their outstanding  Certificate Balances
(in each case in reduction of their  respective  Certificate  Balances as of the
related  Distribution  Date),  but in the aggregate  only to the extent that the
aggregate  Certificate  Balance  of  such  Classes  of  Certificates   remaining
outstanding  after giving effect to the  distributions on such Distribution Date
exceeds the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool that will be
outstanding  immediately  following such Distribution  Date. See "DESCRIPTION OF
THE  CERTIFICATES--Subordination;  Allocation  of Losses and  Certain  Expenses"
herein.  Any  Realized  Loss or  Additional  Trust Fund  Expenses  allocated  in
reduction of the Certificate Balance of any Class of Sequential Pay Certificates
will result in a  corresponding  reduction in the notional amount of the related
Component.   See   "DESCRIPTION   OF   THE    CERTIFICATES--Distributions"   and
"--Subordination;  Allocation of Losses and Certain  Expenses" herein and "YIELD
AND MATURITY CONSIDERATIONS" herein and in the Prospectus.

     The Pass-Through Rate applicable to the Class B, Class C, Class D and Class
E Certificates  for each  Distribution  Date will equal the Weighted Average Net
Mortgage  Rate  minus __%,  __%,  __% and __%,  respectively  (but not less than
zero),  the Strip Rate  applicable to the Class A-1 and Class A-2 Components for
each  Distribution  Date will equal the Weighted Average Net Mortgage Rate minus
__% and  __%,  respectively  (but  not  less  than  zero),  and the  Strip  Rate
applicable  to the Class F, Class G, Class H, Class J and Class K Component  for
each  Distribution  Date will each equal the Weighted  Average Net Mortgage Rate
minus __% (but not less than zero).  Accordingly,  the Pass-Through Rate on such
Classes  of   Certificates   and  the  Strip  Rate  on  such   Components   and,
correspondingly,  the yield on the Class IO  Certificates,  will be sensitive to
changes  in the  relative  composition  of the  Mortgage  Pool  as a  result  of
scheduled amortization,  voluntary and involuntary prepayments and liquidations.
See  "DESCRIPTION  OF  THE  CERTIFICATES--Distributions"  and  "--Subordination;
Allocation  of Losses and  Certain  Expenses"  herein  and  "YIELD AND  MATURITY
CONSIDERATIONS" herein and in the Prospectus.

     Potential  Conflicts  of  Interest.  It is  anticipated  that  one or  more
affiliates  of the initial  Special  Servicer  may  purchase all of the Class F,
Class G, Class H, Class J and Class K  Certificates  shortly  after the  Closing
Date. Subject to certain conditions  described herein, the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement  will  permit the holder (or  holders)  of the  majority of the Voting
Rights allocated to holders of the Class of Sequential Pay Certificates that has
the latest  alphabetical  Class  designation and that has a Certificate  Balance
that is greater than 20% of its original  Certificate Balance (or if no Class of
Sequential Pay Certificates  has a Certificate  Balance that is greater than 20%
of its original  Certificate  Balance,  the Class of Sequential Pay Certificates
with the latest  alphabetical Class designation) to replace the Special Servicer
or any  successor  thereafter  appointed  and to select  the  Controlling  Class
Representative  from whom the Special Servicer will seek advice and approval and
take direction under certain circumstances, as described herein. The replacement
Special Servicer may be a Certificateholder of such Class or an affiliate of any
such  Certificateholder.  As described  herein,  the Special  Servicer will have
considerable  latitude in determining  whether to liquidate or modify  defaulted
Mortgage Loans. See "SERVICING OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS--Modifications, Waivers and
Amendments"  herein.  Although the initial Special Servicer will be obligated to
observe the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and will be governed by
the  servicing  standard  described  herein,  it  may,  especially  if  it or an
affiliate is a  Certificateholder,  have  interests  when dealing with defaulted
Mortgage  Loans that are in conflict  with those of holders of other  Classes of
Offered   Certificates.   For   instance,   a   Special   Servicer   that  is  a
Certificateholder  could seek to mitigate  the  potential  for loss to its Class
from a troubled Mortgage Loan by deferring enforcement in the hope of maximizing
future proceeds. However, such action could result in less proceeds to the Trust
Fund than would have been  realized  if earlier  action had been  taken.  To the
extent a Controlling Class  Representative  has been elected with respect to any
Specially  Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer may, at the direction of
the  Controlling  Class  Representative,  take  actions  with  respect  to  such
Specially Serviced Mortgage

Loan that could  adversely  affect the  holders of some or all of the Classes of
Offered  Certificates.   See  "SERVICING  OF  THE  MORTGAGE  LOANS--The  Special
Servicer" herein.

THE MORTGAGE LOANS

     Risks of Lending on Income-Producing  Properties.  The Mortgaged Properties
consist  entirely of  income-producing  real estate.  Lending on the security of
income-producing  real  estate is  generally  viewed as  exposing  a lender to a
greater risk of loss than lending on the security of  single-family  residences.
Income  property  lending  typically  involves  larger loans than  single-family
lending.  In addition,  and unlike  loans made on the security of  single-family
residences,  repayment  of loans made on the security of  income-producing  real
property  depends  upon the  ability of the related  real estate  project (i) to
generate  rental  income  sufficient  to  pay  operating  expenses  and  leasing
commissions,   to  make  necessary  repairs,  tenant  improvements  and  capital
improvements  and to pay debt  service and (ii) in the case of loans that do not
fully  amortize  over  their  terms,  to retain  sufficient  value to permit the
borrower  to repay  the loan at  maturity  by sale or  refinancing.  A number of
factors,  many beyond the control of the property owner,  can affect the ability
of an income-producing  real estate project to generate sufficient net operating
income to pay debt service and/or to maintain its value. Among these factors are
economic conditions  generally and in the area of the project,  the age, quality
and  design of the  project  and the  degree  to which it  competes  with  other
projects  in the area,  changes  or  continued  weakness  in  specific  industry
segments, increases in operating costs, the willingness and ability of the owner
to provide  capable  property  management  and  maintenance  and, in the case of
Mortgaged Properties that are retail, industrial/warehouse or office properties,
the degree to which the project's  revenue is dependent  upon a single tenant or
user, a small group of tenants, tenants concentrated in a particular business or
industry and the  competition to any such tenants.  If leases are not renewed or
replaced,  if tenants  default  and/or if rental  rates fall and/or if operating
expenses increase,  the borrower's ability to repay the loan may be impaired and
the resale value of the  property,  which is  substantially  dependent  upon the
property's ability to generate income, may decline. In addition, there are other
factors, including changes in zoning or tax laws, the availability of credit for
refinancing,  and changes in interest rate levels that may adversely  affect the
value  of a  project  (and  thus the  borrower's  ability  to repay  the loan at
maturity by sale or refinancing)  without  necessarily  affecting the ability to
generatecurrent income.

     In  addition,   particular  types  of  income  properties  are  exposed  to
particular  risks. For instance,  office  properties may require their owners to
expend  significant  amounts of cash to pay for  general  capital  improvements,
tenant  improvements and costs of re-leasing space. Also, office properties that
are not  equipped  to  accommodate  the needs of modern  businesses  may  become
functionally obsolete and thus non-competitive. Multifamily projects are part of
a market that, in general,  is characterized  by low barriers to entry.  Thus, a
particular  apartment  market with  historically  low vacancies could experience
substantial  new  construction,  and  a  resultant  oversupply  of  units,  in a
relatively  short  period  of time.  Because  multifamily  apartment  units  are
typically  leased on a short-term  basis, the tenants who reside in a particular
project within such a market may easily move to  alternative  projects with more
desirable amenities or locations.  Shopping centers, in general, are affected by
the health of the retail industry, which is currently undergoing a consolidation
and is  experiencing  changes due to the  growing  market  share of  "off-price"
retailing,  and a particular  shopping  center may be adversely  affected by the
bankruptcy  or decline in drawing  power of an anchor  tenant,  the risk that an
anchor tenant may vacate  notwithstanding such tenant's continuing obligation to
pay rent, a shift in consumer  demand due to  demographic  changes (for example,
population  decreases  or changes in average  age or income)  and/or  changes in
consumer preference (for example, to discount retailers).  Industrial properties
may be adversely affected by reduced demand for industrial space occasioned by a
decline in a  particular  industry  segment (for  example,  a decline in defense
spending),  and a particular  industrial  property  that suited the needs of its
original  tenant  may be  difficult  to relet to  another  tenant or may  become
functionally obsolete relative to newer properties.  Self storage facilities are
also part of a market that contains low barriers to entry and due to the privacy
considerations applicable to self storage facilities, may increase environmental
risks.

     Various factors,  including location, quality and franchise affiliation (or
lack  thereof),  affect the  economic  viability  of a hotel.  Adverse  economic
conditions,  either  local,  regional or  national,  may limit the amount that a
consumer is willing to pay for a room and may result in a reduction in occupancy
levels. The construction of competing hotels or motels can have similar effects.
Because  hotel  rooms  generally  are  rented for short  periods of time,  hotel
properties  tend  to be  more  sensitive  to  adverse  economic  conditions  and
competition than do other  commercial  properties.  In addition,  the successful
operation of a hospitality  property with a franchise  affiliation may depend in
part upon the strength of the franchisor, the public perception of the franchise
service mark and the

                                      S-29

<PAGE>

continued existence of any franchise license agreement. The transferability of a
franchise license agreement may be restricted, and a lender or other person that
acquires title to a hotel  property as a result of foreclosure  may be unable to
succeed  to  the  borrower's  rights  under  the  franchise  license  agreement.
Moreover, the transferability of a hotel's operating,  liquor and other licenses
upon a transfer  of the hotel,  whether  through  purchase  or  foreclosure,  is
subject  to  local  law  requirements  and may not be  transferable.  See  "RISK
FACTORS--Risks  Associated with Certain Mortgage Loans and Mortgaged Properties"
in the Prospectus.

     Nonrecourse   Mortgage  Loans.  The  Mortgage  Loans  are  not  insured  or
guaranteed by any governmental entity or private mortgage insurer. The Depositor
has not undertaken any evaluation of the significance of the recourse provisions
of Mortgage  Loans that may permit  recourse  against  the  related  borrower or
another person in the event of a default. Accordingly, investors should consider
all of the Mortgage  Loans to be  nonrecourse  loans as to which recourse in the
case of default will be limited to the specific  property and such other assets,
if any, as were pledged to secure a Mortgage Loan.

     Environmental Law  Considerations.  Contamination of real property may give
rise to a lien on that property to assure payment of the cost of clean-up or, in
certain circumstances, may result in liability to the lender for that cost. Such
contamination  may also reduce the value of a property.  Payment for the cost of
clean-up  may  reduce  funds  available  to  pay  debt  service.   A  "Phase  I"
environmental site assessment was performed at each of the Mortgaged  Properties
and in certain cases,  additional  environmental testing, as recommended by such
"Phase  I"  assessment,   was  performed.   See  "DESCRIPTION  OF  THE  MORTGAGE
POOL--Assessments   of   Property   Condition--Environmental   and   Engineering
Assessments" herein.

     The Pooling and  Servicing  Agreement  requires  that the Special  Servicer
obtain an environmental  site assessment of a Mortgaged Property prior to taking
possession of the property through  foreclosure or otherwise or assuming control
of its operation.  Such  requirement  effectively  precludes  enforcement of the
security for the related Mortgage Note until a satisfactory  environmental  site
assessment  is obtained (or until any  required  remedial  action is  thereafter
taken),  but will decrease the likelihood that the Trust Fund will become liable
for a  material  adverse  environmental  condition  at the  Mortgaged  Property.
However,  there can be no  assurance  that the  requirements  of the Pooling and
Servicing  Agreement  will  effectively  insulate the Trust Fund from  potential
liability  for a materially  adverse  environmental  condition at any  Mortgaged
Property. See "DESCRIPTION OF THE POOLING AGREEMENTS--Realization Upon Defaulted
Mortgage Loans", "RISK FACTORS--Environmental  Risks" and "CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS
OF MORTGAGE LOANS--Environmental Considerations" in the Prospectus.

     Balloon Payments. Three hundred twenty-five (325) Mortgage Loans (83%) (the
"Balloon Loans"),  do not fully amortize over their terms to maturity and have a
Balloon Payment due at maturity.  Mortgage Loans with Balloon Payments involve a
greater risk to a lender than Fully  Amortizing  Loans  because the ability of a
borrower to make a Balloon Payment typically will depend upon its ability either
to fully refinance the loan or to sell the related Mortgaged Property at a price
sufficient  to permit the borrower to make the Balloon  Payment.  Moreover,  and
whether or not losses are ultimately sustained, any delay in the collection of a
Balloon Payment that would otherwise be  distributable  in respect of a Class of
Offered Certificates will likely extend the weighted average life of such Class.
The ability of a borrower to effect a refinancing  or sale will be affected by a
number of factors,  including the value of the related Mortgaged  Property,  the
level  of  available  mortgage  rates at the  time of sale or  refinancing,  the
borrower's  equity  in the  Mortgaged  Property,  the  financial  condition  and
operating  history  of the  borrower  and  the  Mortgaged  Property,  tax  laws,
prevailing general economic  conditions and the availability of credit for loans
secured  by  multifamily  or  commercial,  as the case may be,  real  properties
generally.  See  "RISK  FACTORS--Balloon  Payments;  Borrower  Default"  in  the
Prospectus.

     In order to maximize  recoveries on defaulted  Mortgage Loans,  the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement permits the Master Servicer, or the Special Servicer, to
extend and modify  Mortgage Loans that are in material  default or as to which a
payment default  (including the failure to make a Balloon  Payment) is imminent;
subject,  however,  tothe limitations described under "SERVICING OF THE MORTGAGE
LOANS--Modifications, Waivers and Amendments" herein. There can be no assurance,
however, that any such extension or modification will increase the present value
of recoveries in a given case. Any delay in collection of a Balloon Payment that
would otherwise be distributable in respect of a Class of Offered  Certificates,
whether such delay is due to borrower  default or to modification of the related
Mortgage  Loan,  will likely  extend the weighted  average life of such Class of
Offered Certificates.  See "YIELD AND MATURITY CONSIDERATIONS" herein and in the
Prospectus.

                                      S-30

     Risk of Subordinated Debt and Other Financing.  As of the Cut-Off Date, the
Mortgaged  Properties  securing seven Mortgage Loans (2%) (control  numbers 202,
204, 208, 210, 233, 240 and 435), are encumbered by secured  subordinated  debt.
The existence of secured  subordinated  debt encumbering any Mortgaged  Property
may increase the difficulty of refinancing the related Mortgage Loan at maturity
and the possibility that reduced cash flow could result in deferred maintenance.
Also,  in the  event  that the  holder  of the  subordinated  debt has filed for
bankruptcy or been placed in involuntary receivership, foreclosure by any senior
lienholder  (including  the  Trust  Fund)  on the  Mortgaged  Property  could be
delayed.  Notwithstanding,  with  respect  to many of the  Mortgage  Loans,  the
Mortgage Loan documents do not prohibit the borrower from  incurring  additional
indebtedness which is not secured by a lien on the related Mortgaged Properties.
A default by the  borrower  on such  additional  indebtedness  could  impair the
borrower's  financial  condition and result in the bankruptcy or receivership of
the  borrower  in which  event  foreclosure  by the Trust Fund on the  Mortgaged
Property  would be delayed.  With respect to one Mortgage  Loan,  (1%)  (control
number  324),  Daiwa has made a  "subordinate"  loan to a borrower  secured by a
pledge of the limited partnership  interest in the borrower.  See "CERTAIN LEGAL
ASPECTS  OF  MORTGAGE  LOANS--Subordinate   Financing"  and  "--Due-on-Sale  and
Due-on-Encumbrance" in the Prospectus.

     Related  Borrowers.  While there are no related borrower  concentrations in
excess of 3% of the Initial Pool Balance,  certain  borrowers under the Mortgage
Loans  are  affiliated  or  under  common  control  with  one  another.  In such
circumstances,  any adverse circumstances relating to a borrower or an affiliate
thereof and affecting one of the related Mortgage Loans or Mortgaged  Properties
could also affect other  Mortgage  Loans or Mortgaged  Properties of the related
borrower.  In  particular,  the bankruptcy or insolvency of any such borrower or
affiliate  could have an adverse effect on the operation of all of the Mortgaged
Properties  of that  borrower  and its  affiliates  and on the  ability  of such
related  Mortgaged  Properties to produce  sufficient cash flow to make required
payments on the Mortgage Loans.  For example,  if a person that owns or directly
or  indirectly  controls  several  Mortgaged  Properties  experiences  financial
difficulty at one Mortgaged Property,  it could defer maintenance at one or more
other Mortgaged  Properties in order to satisfy current expenses with respect to
the Mortgaged Property experiencing financial difficulty, or it could attempt to
avert foreclosure by filing a bankruptcy  petition that might have the effect of
interrupting  payments  for an  indefinite  period on all the  related  Mortgage
Loans.  See Annex A, attached  hereto which  indicates  the Mortgage  Loans with
affiliated borrowers.

     Geographic Concentration of Properties Increasing Isolated Geographic Risk.
Ninety-two  (92)  Mortgaged  Properties  (18%)  and  forty-nine  (49)  Mortgaged
Properties (17%) are located in Texas and California,  respectively. In general,
such  concentrations  increase the exposure of the Mortgage Loans to any adverse
economic or other developments that may occur in Texas and California.

     Concentration   of  Mortgage   Loans.   Several  of  the  Mortgage   Loans,
individually  or  together  with  other  Mortgage  Loans  with  which  they  are
cross-collateralized,  have Cut-Off Date Balances that are substantially  higher
than the average Cut-Off Date Balance.

     In   general,   concentrations   in  a   mortgage   pool  of   loans   with
larger-than-average balances can result in losses that are more severe, relative
to the size of the pool, than would be the case if the aggregate  balance of the
pool were more evenly distributed. Concentration of borrower representation in a
mortgage pool also poses increased risks. For instance,  if a borrower that owns
several Mortgaged Properties  experiences  financial difficulty at one Mortgaged
Property, or at another income-producing property that it owns, it could attempt
to avert foreclosure by filing a bankruptcy  petition that might have the effect
of interrupting Periodic Payments for an indefinite period on all of the related
Mortgage Loans.

     Risks  of  Different  Timing  of  Mortgage  Loan  Amortization.  If  and as
principal  payments,  property  releases,  or prepayments are made on a Mortgage
Loan, the remaining  Mortgage Pool may be subject to more concentrated risk with
respect  to the  diversity  of  properties,  types of  properties  and  property
characteristics  and with  respect  to the number of  borrowers.  See each table
entitled "Stated Remaining Terms to Maturity" under "DESCRIPTION OF THE MORTGAGE
POOL--Additional  Mortgage Loan Information" for a description of the respective
maturity  dates  of  the  Mortgage  Loans.  Because  principal  on  the  Offered
Certificates  (other than the Class IO  Certificates)  is payable in  sequential
order   to   the    extent    described    herein    under    "DESCRIPTION    OF
CERTIFICATES--Distributions",   Classes   that   have  a   lower   priority   of
distributions  are  more  likely  to be  exposed  to the  risk of  concentration
discussed  under  "--Concentration  of Mortgage Loans" above than Classes with a
higher sequential priority.

     Ground Leases and Other Leasehold Interests. Certain of the Mortgage Loans,
are  secured in whole or in part by  leasehold  interests.  Pursuant  to Section
365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code, ground lessees are currently  afforded rights not
to treat a ground  lease as  terminated  and to  remain in  possession  of their
leased  premises upon the bankruptcy of their ground lessor and the rejection of
the  ground  lease by the  representative  of such  ground  lessor's  bankruptcy
estate. The leasehold mortgages provide that the borrower may not elect to treat
the  ground  lease as  terminated  on  account  of any such  bankruptcy  of, and
rejection by, the ground lessor  without the prior approval of the holder of the
Mortgage  Note.  In the event of a bankruptcy of a ground  lessee/borrower,  the
ground lessee/borrower under the protection of the Bankruptcy Code has the right
to assume  (continue) or reject  (terminate) any or all of its ground leases. In
the event of concurrent  bankruptcy  proceedings involving the ground lessor and
the ground  lessee/borrower,  the Trustee may be unable to enforce the  bankrupt
ground  lessee/borrower's  obligation to refuse to treat a ground lease rejected
by a bankrupt ground lessor as terminated. In such circumstances, a ground lease
could be  terminated  notwithstanding  lender  protection  provisions  contained
therein or in the related Mortgage.

     Mortgage Loan Sellers. The applicable Mortgage Loan Seller will be the sole
warranting  party in respect of the Mortgage  Loans sold by such  Mortgage  Loan
Seller  to the  Depositor,  and  neither  the  Depositor  nor  any of its  other
affiliates  will be obligated to repurchase any Mortgage Loan in connection with
either a breach of the  applicable  Mortgage Loan Seller's  representations  and
warranties or any document defects,  if the applicable  Mortgage Loan Seller (or
Daiwa  Finance  Corp.  with  respect to Mortgage  Loans to be sold by Daiwa Real
Estate  Finance  Corp.),  defaults on its  obligation  to do so. There can be no
assurance that any of the Mortgage Loan Sellers will have the financial  ability
to effect such repurchases. See "DESCRIPTION OF THE MORTGAGE POOL--Assignment of
the  Mortgage  Loans;   Repurchases"  and   "--Representations  and  Warranties;
Repurchases" herein and "DESCRIPTION OF THE POOLING  AGREEMENTS--Representations
and Warranties; Repurchases" in the Prospectus.

                        DESCRIPTION OF THE MORTGAGE POOL

GENERAL

     The Mortgage  Pool is expected to consist of 401  conventional,  fixed rate
Mortgage  Loans with an aggregate  Cut-Off Date Balance of  $1,088,335,035  (the
"Initial Pool  Balance")  which are secured by first liens on 405 commercial and
multifamily  properties.  The Cut-Off Date  Balances of the Mortgage  Loans will
range from $179,680 to  $18,964,067  and the Mortgage Loans will have an average
Cut-Off Date  Balance of  $2,714,052.  All loan  balances  and  percentages  are
subject to a variance  of plus or minus 5%. The  "Cut-Off  Date  Balance" of any
Mortgage Loan will equal the unpaid principal  balance thereof as of the Cut-Off
Date,  after reduction for all payments of principal due on or before such date,
whether or not received.  All  percentages  referred to herein  without  further
description are approximate  percentages by Initial Pool Balance.  References to
percentages of Mortgaged  Properties  are  references to the  percentages of the
Initial Pool Balance  represented  by the portion of the Cut-Off Date Balance of
the related Mortgage Loans represented by such Mortgaged Properties.

     All of the Mortgage  Loans are generally  non-recourse  obligations  of the
respective  borrowers.  No Mortgage  Loan will be insured or  guaranteed  by any
governmental entity or private insurer.

     All but four of the Mortgage  Loans are secured by a first mortgage lien on
the  borrower's  fee simple  estate  (except as set forth  below) in one or more
income-producing  real properties  (each, a "Mortgaged  Property").  Four of the
Mortgage  Loans (1%)  (control  numbers 118,  119, 233 and 329) are secured by a
first mortgage lien on the borrower's  leasehold estate in the related Mortgaged
Property.

     Two hundred  forty-one  (241)  Mortgage  Loans  (42%) were  acquired by the
Depositor  from Daiwa,  which  originated  such Mortgage  Loans or acquired such
Mortgage Loans from one of the  participants  in its commercial and  multifamily
mortgage loan conduit program concurrently with or shortly after origination, or
in the case of 79 Mortgage Loans (6%), acquired such Mortgage Loans in secondary
market purchases. One hundred sixty (160) Mortgage Loans (58%), will be acquired
by the Depositor from MLMCI,  which acquired such Mortgage Loans from one of the
participants  in its commercial and  multifamily  mortgage loan conduit  program
concurrently  with or shortly after  origination,  or in the case of twelve (12)
Mortgage  Loans  (4%),  acquired  such  Mortgage  Loans  in a  secondary  market
purchase.

     Set forth below is the  approximate  percentage of the Initial Pool Balance
represented by the Mortgage Loans originated in the indicated year:

                                                 % OF
                                             INITIAL POOL
               YEAR                             BALANCE
               ----                             -------
               1995 .............................  2%
               1996 .............................  3%
               1997 ............................. 88%
               1998 .............................  8%

     None of the  Mortgage  Loans will be 30 days or more  delinquent  as of the
Cut-Off Date.

     No  Mortgage  Loan or group of Mortgage  Loans to one  borrower or group of
related borrowers exceeds 3% of the Initial Pool Balance.  Mortgage Loans to one
borrower or a group of related  borrowers are identified on Annex A hereto.  See
"--Additional Mortgage Loan Information" and "RISK  FACTORS--Related  Borrowers"
herein. 

CERTAIN TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS

     Mortgage Rates;  Calculations  of Interest.  All of the Mortgage Loans bear
interest at Mortgage  Rates that will remain  fixed for their  remaining  terms,
except  with  respect to the ARD Loans  which  provide  for an  increase  in the
interest rate accruing on such Mortgage Loans after their respective Anticipated
Repayment  Dates.  One hundred  fifty-six  (156)  Mortgage  Loans  (40%)  accrue
interest on the basis (a "30/360  basis") of a 360-day year consisting of twelve
30-day  months and 245  Mortgage  Loans (60%)  accrue  interest on the basis (an
"actual/360 basis") of the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year.

     Due Dates.  All of the  Mortgage  Loans have Due Dates  (that is, the dates
upon which the related Periodic Payments become due) that occur on the first day
of each month that a payment is due.  Periodic  Payments  are due  monthly  with
respect to all of the Mortgage  Loans,  except that one Mortgage Loan's (control
number 300) Balloon Payment is due on the fifth day of the month.

     Amortization.  Three hundred twenty-five (325) Mortgage Loans (83%) provide
for Periodic Payments based on amortization schedules  significantly longer than
their respective  remaining terms to maturity.  As a result, such Mortgage Loans
(the "Balloon  Loans") will have substantial  principal  amounts due and payable
(each such  amount,  together  with the  corresponding  payment of  interest,  a
"Balloon Payment") on their respective  scheduled maturity dates, unless prepaid
prior thereto. See "RISK FACTORS--The Mortgage  Loans--Balloon  Payments" herein
and  "RISK  FACTORS--Balloon  Payments;  Borrower  Default"  in the  Prospectus.
Fifteeen (15) Mortgage Loans (7%) (the "ARD Loans") fully amortize through their
respective remaining terms to maturity,  but provide that after a date set forth
in the  respective  Mortgage Loan  documents  (each such date,  an  "Anticipated
Repayment  Date"),  interest  will accrue on each ARD Loan at an  interest  rate
above the Mortgage Rate (the "Adjusted  Mortgage  Rate") and, in addition to its
obligation to make its scheduled Periodic Payments, the related borrower will be
obligated  to apply all monthly  cash flow  generated  by the related  Mortgaged
Property in excess of regular debt service  payments  (without  giving effect to
the Adjusted  Mortgage Rate),  reserves and certain other property expenses (the
"Remaining  Cash Flow") to the repayment of principal of such Mortgage Loan. The
excess  interest  which  accrues  on each ARD Loan  and is  attributable  to the
difference  between the Adjusted Mortgage Rate and the related original Mortgage
Rate (the "Additional Interest") will be deferred until the principal balance of
such ARD Loan has been  reduced  to zero  and  bears  interest  at the  Adjusted
Mortgage  Rate to the extent  permitted by law.  With  respect to such  Mortgage
Loans,  no  Prepayment  Premiums  will be due in  connection  with any principal
prepayment  on or after the  Anticipated  Repayment  Date.  No  holders of REMIC
Regular  Certificates  will be entitled to receive  distributions  of Additional
Interest.  Sixty-one (61) Mortgage Loans (10%) (the "Fully  Amortizing  Loans"),
other  than  the ARD  Loans,  fully  or  substantially  amortize  through  their
respective remaining terms to maturity.

     Prepayment  Provisions.  As of the Cut-Off Date,  all of the Mortgage Loans
restrict or prohibit voluntary principal  prepayments.  In general, the Mortgage
Loans  (other  than  the  Mortgage  Loans   described  in  the  next  succeeding
paragraph):  (i) prohibit  voluntary  prepayments  of principal  for a period (a
"Lockout  Period")  ending on a date specified in the related  Mortgage Note (as
defined herein) and, in general, thereafter impose a Yield Maintenance Charge or
Percentage  Premium  (each as  defined  herein)  for  most of  their  respective
remaining terms to maturity (269

                                      S-33


<PAGE>

Mortgage Loans (67%)); (ii) prohibit voluntary prepayments of principal for most
of their  remaining  term, to maturity (two Mortgage  Loans (2%));  (iii) permit
voluntary  prepayments  provided that the  prepayment is  accompanied by a Yield
Maintenance  Charge and a Percentage Premium in excess of the amount prepaid for
most of their respective terms to maturity (81 Mortgage Loans (7%)); (iv) permit
voluntary principal prepayments provided that the prepayment is accompanied by a
Yield Maintenance Charge or a Percentage Premium in excess of the amount prepaid
for most of their  respective  remaining terms to maturity (three Mortgage Loans
(1%)); or (v) prohibit  prepayment for a period,  then require that a prepayment
is  accompanied  with a  Yield  Maintenance  Charge  for a  period,  and  then a
Percentage  Premium in excess of the amount prepaid for most of their respective
remaining  terms to maturity  (one  Mortgage  Loan  (0.4%)).  See  "--Additional
Mortgage  Loan  Information"  herein.  With respect to the ARD Loans,  voluntary
principal prepayments after the Anticipated Repayment Date are permitted without
material restrictions.  The ability of the Master Servicer or a Special Servicer
to waive or modify the terms of any Mortgage  Loan  relating to the payment of a
Prepayment  Premium  is limited  as  described  herein.  See  "SERVICING  OF THE
MORTGAGE  LOANS--Modifications,  Waivers and Amendments"  herein.  The Depositor
makes  no  representation  as to the  enforceability  of the  provisions  of any
Mortgage  Note  requiring  the  payment of a  Prepayment  Premium,  or as to the
collectability of any Prepayment Premium.

     Defeasance.  Forty-five (45) Mortgage Loans (23%),  during their respective
Lockout Periods (which prohibit  prepayment for most of the term), but beginning
not earlier than two years after the Closing  Date,  provide  that,  in general,
under  certain  conditions,  the related  borrower  may  substitute  a pledge of
"Defeasance Collateral" in exchange for a release of the Mortgaged Property from
the  lien of the  related  Mortgage.  In  general,  "Defeasance  Collateral"  is
non-callable  United States Treasury  obligations that provide for payments that
reflect, as closely as possible,  the remaining scheduled payments in respect of
the related  Mortgage  Loan.  Such  obligations  must provide for payments on or
prior, but as close as possible, to each successive Due Date (or, in the case of
the ARD Loans,  the  Anticipated  Repayment  Date) with  respect to the defeased
Mortgage  Loan,  with each such payment being equal to or greater than (with any
excess to be returned to the  borrower)  the  Periodic  Payments and the Balloon
Payment with respect to such  defeased  Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of an ARD
Loan, the payment anticipated on the related Anticipated Repayment Date).

     Nonrecourse  Obligations.  The Mortgage  Loans are  generally  non-recourse
obligations of the respective borrowers and, upon any such borrower's default in
the  payment of any  amount  due under the  related  Mortgage  Loan,  the holder
thereof may look only to the related Mortgaged  Property for satisfaction of the
borrower's obligations. In addition, in those cases where recourse to a borrower
or guarantor is  purportedly  permitted,  the  Depositor  has not  undertaken an
evaluation  of the  financial  condition  of any such  person,  and  prospective
investors  should thus consider all of the Mortgage Loans to be nonrecourse.  No
Mortgage  Loan will be  insured  or  guaranteed  by any  governmental  entity or
private insurer.

     "Due-on-Sale" and "Due-on-Encumbrance" Provisions. Generally, the Mortgages
contain   "due-on-sale"   and   "due-on-encumbrance"   clauses   that,  in  most
circumstances,  (i) permit the holder of the Mortgage to accelerate the maturity
of the related  Mortgage  Loan if the borrower  sells or otherwise  transfers or
encumbers  the related  Mortgaged  Property or (ii)  prohibit the borrower  from
doing so without the consent of the holder of the Mortgage,  which  consent,  in
certain cases, may not be unreasonably  withheld if certain  conditions are met.
As provided in the Pooling and Servicing  Agreement,  the Special  Servicer,  on
behalf  of the Trust  Fund,  will  determine,  in a manner  consistent  with the
servicing   standard   described   herein  under   "SERVICING  OF  THE  MORTGAGE
LOANS--General,"  whether to exercise  any right the holder of any  Mortgage may
have under any such clause to  accelerate  payment of the related  Mortgage Loan
upon, or to withhold its consent to, any transfer or further  encumbrance of the
related Mortgaged Property.

     Cross-Default and  Cross-Collateralization of Certain Mortgage Loans. Three
Mortgage  Loans (2%)  (control  numbers  191, 179 and 216);  two Mortgage  Loans
(0.1%)  (control  numbers 395 and 396);  three  Mortgage  Loans (0.1%)  (control
numbers 418, 419 and 420); and three  Mortgage Loans (1%) (control  numbers 466,
467 and 468) are  cross-collateralized  and cross-defaulted  with each other. No
Mortgage Loans are  cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with any loans which
are not  included  in the  Mortgage  Pool.  The Master  Servicer  or the Special
Servicer,   as  the  case  may  be,  will  determine   whether  to  enforce  the
cross-default  and  cross-collateralization  rights upon a mortgage loan default
with respect to any of these Mortgage  Loans.  The  Certificateholders  will not
have any right to  participate  in or control any such  determination.  No other
Mortgage  Loans  are  subject  to   cross-collateralization   or   cross-default
provisions.

ASSESSMENT OF PROPERTY CONDITION

     Property  Inspection.  All of the Mortgaged  Properties  were  inspected in
connection with the origination or acquisition of the related  Mortgage Loans by
or on behalf of the  originator  or the related  Mortgage  Loan Seller to assess
their general condition. No inspection revealed any patent structural deficiency
or any deferred maintenance  considered material and adverse to the interests of
the holders of the Offered Certificates and for which adequate reserves have not
been established.

     Appraisals.  All of the  Mortgaged  Properties  were  appraised  by a state
certified  appraiser or an appraiser belonging to the Appraisal  Institute.  The
primary  purpose of each  appraisal was to provide an opinion of the fair market
value of the related Mortgaged Property.  There can be no assurance that another
appraiser would have arrived at the same opinion of value.

     Environmental  Assessments.  A "Phase I" environmental  site assessment was
performed  with respect to all the Mortgaged  Properties in connection  with the
origination  of  the  related  Mortgage  Loans.  In  certain  cases,  additional
environmental  testing,  as  recommended  by  such  "Phase  I"  assessment,  was
performed.  In each case where  environmental  assessments  recommended  further
action,  the  originator  of the  related  Mortgage  Loan  determined  that  the
necessary  remediation or testing was being undertaken in a satisfactory  manner
or that such remediation or testing would be adequately addressed  post-closing.
In some  instances,  the  originator of the related  Mortgage Loan required that
reserves  be  established  to  cover  the  estimated  cost of such  remediation.
Generally, with respect to such Mortgaged Properties, the related borrowers were
required to deposit  with the lender or its designee at the  origination  of the
related  Mortgage  Loans an amount equal to  approximately  125% of the licensed
inspector's estimated cost of the recommended action.

     Engineering  Assessments.  A licensed  engineer or architect  inspected the
related Mortgaged  Property with respect to all the Mortgage Loans to assess the
structure,  exterior  walls,  roofing,  interior  structure and  mechanical  and
electrical systems.  Certain of the resulting reports indicated certain deferred
maintenance  items  and/or  recommended  capital  improvements  with  respect to
certain of such Mortgaged Properties.  The related borrowers generally deposited
with the Lender or its designee at the origination of the related Mortgage Loans
an amount equal to approximately 125% of the licensed  engineer's or architect's
estimated cost of any material recommended repairs,  corrections or replacements
not completed by closing, to assure their completion.

     Earthquake  Analyses.  Except for seven  Mortgage  Loans  (0.53%)  (control
numbers 405, 410, 411, 412, 423, 429 and 433), an architectural  and engineering
consultant  performed an analysis on all of the Mortgaged  Properties located in
the  State of  California  in order  to  evaluate  the  structural  and  seismic
condition  of the  property  and  to  assess,  based  primarily  on  statistical
information,  the maximum probable loss or bounded maximum loss for the property
in an  earthquake  scenario.  The  resulting  reports,  which were  prepared not
earlier than six months prior to origination, concluded that (i) with respect to
the  Mortgage  Loans  originated  or  acquired  by  MLMCI,  in the  event  of an
earthquake,  none of the related  Mortgaged  Properties  would  suffer a bounded
maximum  loss  over a  50-year  period  in  excess  of 15% of the  amount of the
estimated  replacement  cost of the  improvements  and (ii) with  respect to the
Mortgage  Loans  originated  or  acquired  by  Daiwa,  that in the  event  of an
earthquake,  none of the related Mortgaged  Properties for which an analysis was
performed  would suffer a maximum  probable loss over a 50-year period in excess
of 36.6%.

     Zoning  Compliance.  Due to  changes  in  applicable  building  and  zoning
ordinances  and  codes  ("Zoning  Laws")  affecting  certain  of  the  Mortgaged
Properties which have come into effect after the construction of improvements on
such Mortgaged  Properties and for other reasons,  certain  improvements thereon
may not comply fully with current Zoning Laws,  including density,  use, parking
and set back requirements,  but qualify as permitted  non-conforming  uses. Such
changes may limit the ability of the borrower to rebuild the premises "as is" in
the event of a substantial  casualty loss with respect thereto and may adversely
affect the ability of the borrower to meet its Mortgage  Loan  obligations  from
cash flow.  While it is expected that insurance  proceeds would be available for
application  to the related  Mortgage  Loan if a  substantial  casualty  were to
occur,  no assurance can be given that such proceeds  would be sufficient to pay
off such Mortgage  Loan in full or that,  if the  Mortgaged  Property were to be
repaired or restored in  conformity  with current law,  whether the value of the
related  Mortgaged  Property  or  its  revenue  producing   potential  would  be
diminished.

ADDITIONAL MORTGAGE LOAN INFORMATION

     The  Mortgage  Pool.  For  a  detailed   presentation  of  certain  of  the
characteristics  of the  Mortgage  Loans  and the  Mortgaged  Properties,  on an
individual basis, see Annex A hereto.  Certain additional  information regarding
the Mortgage  Loans is  contained  herein  under  "--Assignment  of the Mortgage
Loans; Repurchases" and "--Representations and Warranties;  Repurchases," and in
the Prospectus under "DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUST FUNDS" and "CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS
OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS."

     For purposes of the following  tables,  tables set forth in the Summary and
Annex A:

          (i) References to "Remain Amort. Term" are references to the remaining
     amortization terms.

          (ii)  References to "DSCR" are  references  to "Debt Service  Coverage
     Ratios." With respect to the Mortgage Loans,  debt service  coverage ratios
     are used by  income  property  lenders  to  measure  the ratio  of(a)  cash
     currently  generated by a property that is available for debt service (that
     is, cash that remains after payment of  non-capital  expenses of operation,
     tenant  improvements,  leasing commissions and replacement  reserves during
     the term of the  Mortgage  Loan) to (b)  required  debt  service  payments.
     However,  debt service coverage ratios only measure the current, or recent,
     ability of a property to service  mortgage debt. The "Debt Service Coverage
     Ratio"  for any  Mortgage  Loan is the  ratio of  annual  "Net  Cash  Flow"
     produced by the related Mortgaged Property to the annualized amount of debt
     service that will be payable under that Mortgage Loan commencing  after the
     origination  date.  The Net Cash Flow for a Mortgaged  Property is the "net
     cash flow" of such  Mortgaged  Property as set forth in, or determined  by,
     the  applicable  Mortgage  Loan Seller on the basis of  Mortgaged  Property
     operating  statements,  generally  unaudited,  and certified  rent rolls or
     occupancy  reports (as applicable)  supplied by the related borrower in the
     case of multifamily,  mixed use, retail,  manufactured  housing  community,
     nursing homes, industrial, self storage,  hospitality and office properties
     (each, a "Rental Property").

                                      S-37

<PAGE>

          In general,  the  applicable  Mortgage Loan Seller relied on full-year
     operating   statements,   rolling  12-month  operating   statements  and/or
     applicable  year-to-date  financial  statements,   if  available,   and  on
     certified rent rolls or occupancy  reports (as  applicable)  for all Rental
     Properties that were current as of a date not earlier than six months prior
     to the respective  date of  origination  or acquisition in determining  Net
     Cash Flow for the Mortgaged  Properties.  References to "Cut-Off Date DSCR"
     are  references to the DSCR as of the Cut-Off  Date. In general,  "net cash
     flow" is the  revenue  derived  from the use and  operation  of a Mortgaged
     Property  less  operating  expenses  (such  as  utilities,   administrative
     expenses,  repairs  and  maintenance,  tenant  improvement  costs,  leasing
     commissions,  management  fees and  advertising),  fixed  expenses (such as
     insurance, real estate taxes and, if applicable, ground lease payments) and
     replacement reserves.  Net cash flow does not reflect interest expenses and
     non-cash items such as depreciation  and  amortization,  and generally does
     not  reflect   capital   expenditures,   but  does  reflect   reserves  for
     replacements.

          In  determining  the  "revenue"  component  of Net Cash  Flow for each
     Rental  Property,  the applicable  Mortgage Loan Seller generally relied on
     the most recent  certified  rent roll supplied and certified by the related
     borrower and, where the actual vacancy shown thereon and the market vacancy
     was less than 5%, generally  assumed a minimum of 5% vacancy in determining
     revenue from rents,  except that in the case of certain  anchored  shopping
     centers and certain single tenant properties, space occupied by such anchor
     or single  tenants  may have been  disregarded  in  performing  the vacancy
     adjustment due to the length of the related leases or  creditworthiness  of
     such tenants,  in  accordance  with the  respective  Mortgage Loan Seller's
     underwriting  standards.  In  determining  rental  revenue for  multifamily
     properties,  the  applicable  Mortgage Loan Seller either  reviewed  rental
     revenue shown on the certified  rolling  12-month  operating  statements or
     annualized  the rental  revenue  and  reimbursement  of  expenses  shown on
     certified rent rolls or operating statements with respect to the prior one-
     to  12-month  periods.  For the other  Rental  Properties,  the  applicable
     Mortgage Loan Seller generally  annualized rental revenue shown on the most
     recent  certified  rent roll,  after applying the vacancy  factor,  without
     further  regard to the terms  (including  expiration  dates) of the  leases
     shown thereon. In the case of hospitality  properties,  gross receipts were
     determined  on the  basis  of  historical  operating  levels  shown  on the
     borrower-supplied operating statements, but in no case in excess of rolling
     12-month operating statements. Occupancy rates were within the then current
     market  ranges and vacancy  levels  were a minimum of 5%. In  general,  any
     non-recurring  items and non-property  related revenue were eliminated from
     the calculation except in the case of residential health care facilities.

          In  determining  the  "expense"  component  of Net Cash  Flow for each
     Mortgaged Property,  the Mortgage Loan Seller generally relied on full-year
     or year-to-date financial statements, rolling 12-month operating statements
     and/or year-to-date  financial statements supplied by the related borrower,
     except that (a) if tax or insurance  expense  information more current than
     that  reflected  in the  financial  statements  was  available,  the  newer
     information was used, (b) property  management fees were generally  assumed
     to be 4% to 5% of effective gross revenue,  (c) assumptions  were made with
     respect to reserves for leasing  commissions,  tenant improvement  expenses
     and capital  expenditures  and (d) expenses were assumed to include  annual
     replacement  reserves.  See Annex A hereto. In addition, in some instances,
     the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller recharacterized as capital expenditures
     those items reported by borrowers as operating  expenses  (thus  increasing
     "net cash flow") where such Mortgage Loan Seller determined appropriate.

          The borrower's  financial  information used to determine Net Cash Flow
     was in most cases unaudited,  and neither the Mortgage Loan Sellers nor the
     Depositor verified their accuracy.

          (iii)  References to "Cut-Off  Date LTV" are  references to the ratio,
     expressed as a  percentage,  of the Cut-Off Date Balance of a Mortgage Loan
     to the appraised  value of the related  Mortgaged  Property as shown on the
     most recent third-party appraisal thereof available to the related Mortgage
     Loan Seller.

          (iv)  References  to  "Repayment  LTV" are  references  to the  ratio,
     expressed as a percentage, of the expected balance of a Balloon Loan on its
     scheduled  maturity date or an ARD Loan on its Anticipated  Repayment Date,
     as the  case  may be  (prior  to the  payment  of any  Balloon  Payment  or
     repayment of principal),  to the appraised  value of the related  Mortgaged
     Property  as  shown  on  the  most  recent  third-party  appraisal  thereof
     available to the related Mortgage Loan Seller prior to the Cut-Off Date.

          (v)  References  to "Loan per Sq ft, Unit,  Pad, Room or Bed" are, for
     each  Mortgage  Loan  secured by a lien on (1) a retail,  industrial,  self
     storage, medical office or office property, (2) a multifamily property, (3)
     a

     healthcare facility,  respectively,  references to the Cut-Off Date Balance
     of such Mortgage Loan divided by the number of square feet, dwelling units,
     pads,  guest suites or rooms,  or health care facility beds, as applicable,
     that comprise the related Mortgaged  Property,  and, for each Mortgage Loan
     secured by a lien on a retail, industrial,  self-storage, medical office or
     office  property,  references  to the Cut-Off Date Balance of such Mortgage
     Loan divided by the net  rentable  square  footage of the related  Mortgage
     Property.

          (vi)  References  to "Year  Built" are  references  to the year that a
     Mortgaged  Property  was  originally  constructed.   With  respect  to  any
     Mortgaged Property which was constructed in phases, the "Year Built" refers
     to the year that the first phase was originally constructed.

          (vii)  References to "weighted  averages"  are  references to averages
     weighted on the basis of the Cut-Off Date Balances of the related  Mortgage
     Loans or in the event of  substantial  renovation  or  rehabilitation  of a
     Mortgaged Property, the year in which such renovation or rehabilitation was
     completed.

          (viii)  References to "Mortgage  Rate" are  references to the interest
     rate on a  Mortgage  Loan set  forth in the  related  Mortgage  Note on the
     Cut-Off Date.

          (ix) References to "Initial  Reserves at Closing"  represent  reserves
     escrowed  at closing  for needed  maintenance,  repairs,  replacements  and
     corrections  of  engineering  and  environmental  issues as outlined in the
     engineering and environmental  reports.  Such amounts  typically  represent
     125% of the costs of the work outlined in such reports and not completed by
     closing.  With  respect to  amounts  considered  de  minimus  and a part of
     ongoing maintenance, a reserve was not established.

          (x)   References  to   "Underwriting   Reserves"   represent   amounts
     underwritten  on an annual  basis to cover  capital  costs,  as used by the
     applicable Mortgage Loan Seller in determining net cash flow.

          (xi) References to "Administrative Cost Rate" represent the sum of the
     Master Servicing Fee, the Additional Servicing Fee and the Trustee Fee.

          (xii)  References to "Occupancy  Percentage"  are, with respect to any
     Mortgaged Property, references to (a) in the case of multifamily properties
     and  manufactured  housing  communities  the  percentage  of  units or pads
     rented,  (b) in the case of  hospitality  properties,  the  average  annual
     occupancy rate (that is, for a specified  year, the percentage  obtained by
     dividing the number of rooms actually rented for all nights in such year by
     the number of rooms  available  to be rented for all nights in such  year),
     (c)  in  the  case  of  medical  office,  office,   industrial  and  retail
     properties,  the percentage of the net rentable square footage rented,  (d)
     in the case of  self-storage  facilities,  either the percentage of the net
     rentable square footage rented or the percentage of units rented (depending
     on borrower  reporting) and (e) in the case of healthcare  facilities,  the
     percentage of beds rented.

          (xiii)  References to "Stated  Remaining  Term" are  references to the
     remaining term to maturity for each Mortgage Loan (or the remaining  number
     of months to the Anticipated Repayment Date with respect to each ARD Loan).

          The sum in any column of any of the following tables may not equal the
     indicated total due to rounding.

THE MORTGAGE LOAN SELLERS

     On or prior to the Closing Date,  the  Depositor  will acquire the Mortgage
Loans from the  Mortgage  Loan  Sellers  pursuant  to separate  agreements  (the
"Mortgage  Loan Purchase  Agreements").  The Mortgage  Loan Sellers  acquired or
originated  the  Mortgage  Loans as  described  above under  "--General."  It is
anticipated  that  Daiwa  Finance  Corp.  will  provide a  guaranty  of  certain
repurchase  obligations  of Daiwa Real Estate  Finance  Corp. as a Mortgage Loan
Seller.

ASSIGNMENT OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS; REPURCHASES

     On or prior to the Closing Date,  the Depositor  will transfer the Mortgage
Loans,   without   recourse,   to  the   Trustee   for   the   benefit   of  the
Certificateholders. In connection with such transfer, the Depositor will require
each Mortgage  Loan Seller to deliver to the Trustee or to a document  custodian
appointed by the Trustee (a  "Custodian"),  among other  things,  the  following
documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan (collectively,  as to each Mortgage
Loan, the "Mortgage File"):  (i) the original Mortgage Note,  endorsed,  without
recourse,  to the  order  of the  Trustee;  (ii) the  original  or a copy of the
Mortgage,  together with an original or copy of any  intervening  assignments of
the Mortgage,  in each case with evidence of recording indicated thereon;  (iii)
the  original or a copy of any related  assignment  of leases (if such item is a
document separate from the Mortgage), together with an original or a copy of any
intervening  assignments of any such  assignments  of leases,  in each case with
evidence of recording  indicated  thereon;  (iv) an original  assignment  of the
Mortgage  in  favor of the  Trustee  and in  recordable  form;  (v) an  original
assignment  of any  related  assignment  of leases  (if such item is a  document
separate from the Mortgage) in favor of the Trustee and in recordable form; (vi)
originals or copies of all written modification agreements in those instances in
which  the  terms or  provisions  of the  Mortgage  or  Mortgage  Note have been
modified;  (vii) the original or a copy of the policy or certificate of lender's
title insurance issued on the date of the origination of such Mortgage Loan, or,
if such policy has not been issued, an irrevocable,  binding commitment to issue
such  title  insurance  policy;  (viii)  any file  copies  of any UCC  financing
statements in the possession of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller; and (ix) an
original  assignment in favor of the Trustee of any financing statement executed
and  filed  in  favor  of the  related  Mortgage  Loan  Seller  in the  relevant
jurisdiction.

     The  Trustee or a  Custodian  on its behalf will be required to review each
Mortgage File within a specified period following its receipt thereof. If any of
the  above-described  documents  is found during the course of such review to be
missing from any Mortgage File or defective, and in either case such omission or
defect materially and adversely affects the interests of the  Certificateholders
or the value of the affected Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller,
if it cannot  deliver  the  document or cure the defect  (other  than  omissions
solely due to a document  not having  been  returned  by the  related  recording
office) within a period of 90 days following its receipt of notice thereof, will
be obligated  pursuant to the applicable  Mortgage Loan Purchase  Agreement (the
relevant rights under which will be assigned by the Depositor to the Trustee) to
repurchase the affected  Mortgage Loan within such 90-day period at a price (the
"Purchase Price") generally equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal balance
of such  Mortgage  Loan,(ii)  unpaid  accrued  interest  on such  Mortgage  Loan
(calculated at the  applicable  Mortgage Rate) to but not including the Due Date
in the  Collection  Period in which the  purchase is to occur and (iii)  certain
Additional  Trust Fund Expenses in respect of such Mortgage Loan,  including but
not limited to, servicing expenses that are reimbursable to the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer or the Trustee plus any interest thereon and on any related
P&I Advances;  provided,  that such Mortgage Loan Seller will have an additional
90-day period to deliver the document or cure the defect, as the case may be, if
it is diligently  proceeding  to effect such delivery or cure,  has delivered to
the Trustee an  officer's  certificate  that  describes  the  reasons  that such
delivery or cure was not  effected  within the first  90-day cure period and the
actions it proposes to take to effect such  delivery or cure,  and which  states
that it anticipates such delivery or cure will be effected within the additional
90-day  period,  and such defect does not relate to any Mortgage  Loan not being
treated as a "qualified  mortgage"  within the meaning of the REMIC  Provisions;
provided,  further,  that for a period of two years from the Closing Date,  such
Mortgage Loan Seller will have  additional  90-day periods to complete such cure
as long as such Mortgage Loan Seller continues to provide officer's certificates
as described above. The foregoing repurchase obligation will constitute the sole
remedy  available  to the  Certificateholders  and the  Trustee  for any uncured
failure to  deliver,  or any  uncured  defect in, a  constituent  Mortgage  Loan
document.  The applicable  Mortgage Loan Seller will be solely  responsible  for
such repurchase  obligation,  and such obligation will not be the responsibility
of the Depositor or any of its other affiliates.

     The  Pooling  and  Servicing  Agreement  will  require  that  each  of  the
assignments  described  in clauses  (iv),  (v) and (ix) of the second  preceding
paragraph  be promptly  (and in any event  within 60 days after the later of the
delivery  of a

complete  Mortgage File or the Closing Date) submitted for recording in the real
property records of the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged  Property is
located.  See  "DESCRIPTION  OF THE POOLING  AGREEMENTS--Assignment  of Mortgage
Loans;   Repurchases"  in  the  Prospectus.   

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; REPURCHASES

     In each Mortgage  Loan Purchase  Agreement,  the  applicable  Mortgage Loan
Seller will  represent  and warrant with respect to each related  Mortgage  Loan
(subject to certain  exceptions  specified in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement),  as of the  Closing  Date,  or as of such  other  date  specifically
provided in the representation and warranty, among other things, generally that:
(i) the  information set forth in the schedule of Mortgage Loans attached to the
applicable  Mortgage  Loan Purchase  Agreement  (which  contains  certain of the
information  set forth in Annex A) is true and correct in all material  respects
as of the  Cut-Off  Date;  (ii) the  applicable  Mortgage  Loan  Seller owns the
Mortgage  Loan and is  transferring  the Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and
all liens,  pledges,  charges or security  interests;  (iii) the proceeds of the
Mortgage Loan have been fully  disbursed and there is no requirement  for future
advances  thereunder;  (iv) each of the related Mortgage Note,  related Mortgage
and other agreements  executed in connection  therewith is the legal,  valid and
binding obligation of the maker thereof (subject to any non-recourse  provisions
contained  in  any  of  the  foregoing   agreements  and  any  applicable  state
anti-deficiency  legislation),  enforceable in accordance with its terms, except
as such  enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy,  insolvency,  reorganization,
moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors'  rights
generally,  and by general  principles  of equity  (regardless  of whether  such
enforcement  is  considered  in a  proceeding  in  equity  or at  law);  (v) the
assignment   of  the   related   Mortgage  to  the  Trustee  on  behalf  of  the
Certificateholders  constitutes the legal,  valid and binding assignment of such
Mortgage,  except  as the  enforcement  of such  assignment  may be  limited  by
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, receivership, moratorium or
other laws relating to or affecting  creditors'  rights  generally or by general
principles of equity  (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a
proceeding  in equity or at law);  (vi) the  related  Mortgage  is a valid first
priority lien in the outstanding  principal amount of the related Mortgage Loan,
except for (A) the lien of current real  property  taxes,  ground  rents,  water
charges,  sewer rents and  assessments  not yet due and payable,  (B) covenants,
conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters that are
of  public  record,  and (C) the  exceptions  set  forth  in the  related  title
insurance  policy;  (vii)  taxes that would be a lien on the  related  Mortgaged
Property and that prior to the Cut-Off Date have become due and owing were paid,
or  an  escrow   of  funds   sufficient   to  cover   such   payment   had  been
established;(viii)  as of the Cut-Off Date, no scheduled payment of principal or
interest was 30 days or more past due; (ix) there is no  proceeding  pending for
the  total or  partial  condemnation  of any  material  portion  of the  related
Mortgaged Property and to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller's  knowledge,  the
Mortgaged  Property  is  free  and  clear  of any  material  damage  that  would
materially and adversely affect its value as security for the Mortgage Loan; (x)
the related  Mortgaged  Property is covered by a lender's title insurance policy
insuring  that the  related  Mortgage  is a valid  first lien on such  Mortgaged
Property, subject only to the exceptions stated therein; (xi) each Mortgage Loan
represents a "qualified  mortgage"  within the meaning of Section  860G(a)(3) of
the Code;  (xii) any  Prepayment  Premium  constitutes  a "customary  prepayment
penalty" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-l(b)(2);  and
(xiii) the applicable  Mortgage Loan Seller has no knowledge of any material and
adverse environmental condition or circumstance affecting any Mortgaged Property
that was not  disclosed  in the report of the  environmental  assessment  of the
Mortgaged  Property  performed by or on behalf of, or otherwise  relied upon by,
the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller.

     In the  case  of a  breach  of any of  the  foregoing  representations  and
warranties  that   materially  and  adversely   affects  the  interests  of  the
Certificateholders  or the value of the affected  Mortgage  Loan, the applicable
Mortgage  Loan Seller,  if it cannot cure such breach within a period of 90 days
following  its  receipt of notice  thereof,  will be  obligated  pursuant to the
applicable  Mortgage Loan Purchase  Agreement  (the relevant  rights under which
will be assigned by the  Depositor  to the Trustee) to  repurchase  the affected
Mortgage  Loan within  such  90-day  period at the  applicable  Purchase  Price;
provided,  that such  Mortgage  Loan Seller will  generally  have an  additional
90-day period to cure such breach if it is diligently proceeding with such cure,
and has  delivered to the Trustee an officer's  certificate  that  describes the
reasons that a cure was not effected within the first 90-day cure period and the
actions  it  proposesto  take to  effect  such  cure and  which  states  that it
anticipates such cure will be effected within the additional90-day period.

     The  foregoing  repurchase  obligation  will  constitute  the  sole  remedy
available to the  Certificateholders  and the Trustee for any uncured  breach of
the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller's  representations and warranties  regarding
the applicable  Mortgage Loans. The applicable  Mortgage Loan Seller will be the
sole warranting party in respect of the



                                      S-48

Mortgage Loans sold by such Mortgage Loan Seller to the  Depositor,  and neither
the  Depositor nor any of its other  affiliates  will be obligated to repurchase
any such affected  Mortgage Loan in connection  with a breach of the  applicable
Mortgage Loan Seller's representations and warranties if the applicable Mortgage
Loan Seller (or Daiwa Finance Corp. with respect to Mortgage Loans sold by Daiwa
Real Estate Finance Corp.) defaults on its obligation to do so. See "DESCRIPTION
OF THE POOLING  AGREEMENTS--Representations and Warranties;  Repurchases" in the
Prospectus. 

CHANGES IN MORTGAGE POOL CHARACTERISTICS

     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 time  the  Offered  Certificates  are  issued.  Prior to the
issuance of the Offered  Certificates,  a Mortgage  Loan may be removed from the
Mortgage Pool if the Depositor deems such removal necessary or appropriate or if
it is prepaid.  A limited  number of other mortgage loans may be included in the
Mortgage  Pool  prior  to the  issuance  of  the  Offered  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 Offered  Certificates are issued,
although   the  range  of  Mortgage   Rates,   maturities   and  certain   other
characteristics of such Mortgage Loans may vary.

     A  Current  Report  on Form 8-K  (the  "Form  8-K")  will be  available  to
purchasers of the Offered  Certificates on or shortly after the Closing Date 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 Offered  Certificates.  If  Mortgage  Loans are removed  from or
added to the Mortgage Pool as described in the preceding paragraph, such removal
or addition will be noted in the Form 8-K.

                         SERVICING OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS

GENERAL

     The Master  Servicer and the Special  Servicer,  either directly or through
sub-servicers,  will be required to service and administer the Mortgage Loans on
behalf  of  the  Trust  Fund  for  the  benefit  of the  Certificateholders,  in
accordance  with  applicable  law,  the  terms  of  the  Pooling  and  Servicing
Agreement,  the  terms of the  respective  Mortgage  Loans  and,  to the  extent
consistent  with the  foregoing,  (a) in the same manner in which,  and with the
same care, skill,  prudence and diligence with which, the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, generally services and administers similar
mortgage loans with similar  borrowers (i) for other  third-party's  portfolios,
giving due consideration to customary and usual standards of practice of prudent
institutional  commercial  mortgage  lenders  servicing their own loans, or (ii)
held in its own portfolio,  whichever standard is higher, (b) with a view to the
maximization  of the  recovery on such  Mortgage  Loans on a net  present  value
basis, and (c) without regard to (i) any  relationship  that the Master Servicer
or the Special  Servicer,  as the case may be, or any affiliate thereof may have
with the related borrower,  the Depositor or any other party to the transaction;
(ii) the  ownership  of any  Certificate  by the Master  Servicer or the Special
Servicer,  as the case may be, or by any affiliate  thereof;  (iii) the right of
the Master  Servicer  or the  Special  Servicer,  as the case may be, to receive
compensation or other fees for its services rendered pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement;  (iv) the obligations of the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer,  as the case may be, to make Advances (as defined herein); and (v) the
ownership,  servicing or management  for others of any other  mortgage  loans or
mortgaged properties.

     Set  forth  below,   following  the  subsections  captioned  "--The  Master
Servicer" and "--The Special  Servicer," is a description  of certain  pertinent
provisions of the Pooling and Servicing  Agreement  relating to the servicing of
the Mortgage Loans.  Reference is also made to the Prospectus,  in particular to
the section  captioned  "DESCRIPTION OF THE POOLING  AGREEMENTS,"  for important
information  in  addition  to that set  forth  herein  regarding  the  terms and
conditions of the Pooling and  Servicing  Agreement as they relate to the rights
and obligations of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer thereunder.  The
Special  Servicer  generally  will  have  all of the  rights  to  indemnity  and
reimbursement,  and  limitations  on  liability,  that the  Master  Servicer  is
described as having in the Prospectus and the Special  Servicer  rather than the
Master  Servicer will perform certain of the servicing  duties  described in the
Prospectus with respect to Specially  Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties
(each, as defined herein).

     The  information  set forth herein  concerning the Master  Servicer and the
Special  Servicer  has been  provided  by the Master  Servicer  and the  Special
Servicer,  respectively,  and neither of the Depositor nor any Underwriter makes
any  representation  or warranty  as to the  accuracy  or  completeness  of such

THE MASTER SERVICER

     First Union National Bank ("FUNB") in its capacity as master servicer under
the Pooling and Servicing  Agreement (in such capacity,  the "Master Servicer"),
will be  responsible  for  servicing  the Mortgage  Loans (other than  Specially
Serviced  Mortgage Loans and REO  Properties).  Although the Master  Servicer is
authorized to employ agents,  including  sub-servicers,  to directly service the
Mortgage  Loans  that are not  Specially  Serviced  Mortgage  Loans,  the Master
Servicer will remain liable for its servicing  obligations under the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.  The Master Servicer is a wholly-owned  subsidiary of First
Union  Corporation,  a North Carolina  corporation  registered as a bank holding
company  under the Bank  Holding  Company Act of 1956,  as  amended.  The Master
Servicer's  principal  servicing  offices are located at One First Union Center,
TW9, 301 South College Street, Charlotte, North Carolina 28288-1075.

     As of December 31, 1997, the Master Servicer serviced  approximately  3,056
commercial  and  multifamily  loans,  totaling  approximately  $16.5  billion in
aggregate  outstanding   principal  amounts,   including  loans  securitized  in
mortgage-backed securitization transactions. 

THE SPECIAL SERVICER

     The  initial  Special   Servicer  will  be  CRIIMI  MAE  Services   Limited
Partnership,  a Maryland  limited  partnership,  the general partner of which is
CRIIMI  MAE  Management,   Inc.  The  Special  Servicer  will  conduct  property
inspections,  collect financial statements,  rent-rolls and other financial data
on the Mortgaged  Properties,  and prepare reports,  as set forth in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.  In addition,  the Special Servicer will be responsible
for performing certain servicing  functions with respect to Mortgage Loans that,
in general, are in default or as to which default is imminent, for administering
any REO Property and for  performing  certain  other  servicing  functions  with
respect to the Mortgage  Pool under the Pooling and Servicing  Agreement.  As of
December 31, 1997,  the Special  Servicer was  responsible  for the servicing of
approximately  $16.3  billion  of  commercial  and  multifamily  loans  and  REO
properties.  One or more  affiliates  of the Special  Servicer  may purchase the
Class F, Class G, Class H, Class J and Class K  Certificates  shortly  after the
Closing  Date.  The Special  Servicer's  principal  offices are located at 11200
Rockville Pike, Rockville, Maryland 20052.

     The Pooling and Servicing  Agreement permits the holder (or holders) of the
majority of the Voting Rights  allocated to holders of the Controlling  Class of
Sequential Pay Certificates to replace the Special Servicer or any successor and
to select a representative  (the "Controlling Class  Representative")  from whom
the Special  Servicer  will seek advice and  approval and take  direction  under
certain  circumstances.   See  "--The  Controlling  Class  Representative."  The
"Controlling  Class of Sequential Pay  Certificates"  is the Class of Sequential
Pay Certificates that has the latest alphabetical Class designation and that has
a  Certificate  Balance  that is greater  than 20% of its  original  Certificate
Balance  (or if no Classes of  Sequential  Pay  Certificates  has a  Certificate
Balance that is greater then 20% of its original  Certificate Balance, the Class
of Sequential Pay Certificates with the latest  alphabetical Class designation).
The  Class  A-1 and  Class A-2  Certificates  will be  treated  as one Class for
determining  the  Controlling   Class  of  Sequential  Pay   Certificates.   Any
replacement of the Special  Servicer by the Controlling  Class of Sequential Pay
Certificates will be subject to, among other things,  (i) the delivery of notice
of the proposed  replacement  to the Rating  Agencies and receipt of notice from
the Rating  Agencies that the  replacement  will not result in a  qualification,
downgrade  or  withdrawal  of any of the then  current  ratings  assigned to the
Certificates,  and (ii) the written  agreement of the successor Special Servicer
to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing  Agreement.
Subject to the  foregoing,  any  Certificateholder  or affiliate  thereof may be
appointed as Special Servicer. See "DESCRIPTION OF CERTIFICATES--Voting  Rights"
herein.

     The Special  Servicer will be responsible  for servicing and  administering
any Mortgage Loan as to which (a) any Periodic Payment shall be delinquent 45 or
more  days  (or,  in the  case of a  Balloon  Payment,  if the  Master  Servicer
determines  that the related  borrower has obtained a commitment  to  refinance,
such longer  period of  delinquency  (not to exceed 120 days)  within which such
refinancing is expected to occur); (b) the Master Servicer shall have determined
that a default  in making a Periodic  Payment is likely to occur  within 30 days
and is likely to remain  unremedied  for at least 60 days (or,  in the case of a
Balloon Payment, if the Master Servicer determines that the related borrower has
obtained  commitment to refinance,  such longer  period of  delinquency  (not to
exceed 120 days) within which such refinancing is expected to occur);  (c) there
shall have occurred a default (other than as described in clause (a) above) that
materially  impairs the value of the  Mortgaged  Property  as  security  for the
Mortgage  Loan or  otherwise  materially  adversely  affects  the  interests  of
Certificateholders and that continues unremedied for the applicable grace period
under the terms of the Mortgage Loan (or, if no grace period is  specified,  for
30 days); (d) a decree or order



                                      S-50
<PAGE>


under any bankruptcy,  insolvency or similar law shall have been entered against
the related  borrower  and such  decree or order  shall have  remained in force,
undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days; (e) the related borrower shall
have  consented  to (or be  subject  to) the  appointment  of a  conservator  or
receiver or liquidator in any  insolvency or similar  proceedings of or relating
to  such  related  borrower  or  relating  to  all or  substantially  all of its
property;  (f) the related borrower shall have admitted in writing its inability
to pay its  debts  generally  as they  become  due,  filed  a  petition  to take
advantage  of any  applicable  insolvency  or  reorganization  statute,  made an
assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspended payment of
its  obligations;  (g) the Master  Servicer  shall have  received  notice of the
commencement of foreclosure or similar  proceedings  with respect to the related
Mortgaged  Property;  or (h) the borrower shall have been materially  delinquent
with  respect to payment of  insurance  premiums  or property  taxes,  including
making escrow payments for the payment of insurance premiums or property taxes.

     In the event of any of the foregoing with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the
Master Servicer is required to use its reasonable  efforts to cause the transfer
of its servicing  responsibilities  with respect thereto to the Special Servicer
within five business days.  Notwithstanding  such transfer,  the Master Servicer
will  continue to receive  payments on such  Mortgage  Loan  (including  amounts
collected by the Special Servicer), to make certain calculations with respect to
such Mortgage Loan, and to make remittances (including, if necessary,  Advances)
and prepare  certain  reports to the Trustee with respect to such Mortgage Loan.
If title to the related  Mortgaged  Property is acquired by the Trust Fund (upon
acquisition,  an "REO Property"),  whether through foreclosure,  deed in lieu of
foreclosure or otherwise,  the Special  Servicer will continue to be responsible
for the operation and management thereof. Mortgage Loans serviced by the Special
Servicer  are referred to herein as  "Specially  Serviced  Mortgage  Loans" and,
together with any REO  Properties,  constitute  "Specially  Serviced  Trust Fund
Assets." If the Special Servicer is not the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer
will have no responsibility for the Special Servicer's performance of its duties
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

     A Mortgage  Loan will cease to be a Specially  Serviced  Mortgage Loan (and
will become a "Corrected  Mortgage  Loan" as to which the Master  Servicer  will
re-assume servicing responsibilities):

          (v) with respect to the  circumstances  described in clause (a) of the
     second  preceding  paragraph,  when the  related  borrower  has made  three
     consecutive  full and  timely  Periodic  Payments  under  the terms of such
     Mortgage Loan (as such terms may be changed or modified in connection  with
     a bankruptcy or similar  proceeding  involving  the related  borrower or by
     reason of a modification,  waiver or amendment  granted or agreed to by the
     Special Servicer);

          (w) with respect to any of the circumstances described in clauses (b),
     (d), (e) and (f) of the second preceding paragraph, when such circumstances
     cease to  exist  in the good  faith,  reasonable  judgment  of the  Special
     Servicer,  but, with respect to any  bankruptcy  or insolvency  proceedings
     described  in clauses (d), (e) and (f), no later than the entry of an order
     or decree dismissing such proceeding;

          (x) with respect to the  circumstances  described in clause (c) of the
     second preceding paragraph, when such default is cured;

          (y) with respect to the  circumstances  described in clause (g) of the
     second preceding paragraph, when such proceedings are terminated; and

          (z) with respect to the  circumstances  described in clause (h) of the
     second preceding paragraph, when such delinquency is cured;

so long as at that time no  circumstance  identified in such clauses (a) through
(h) exists that would cause the Mortgage Loan to continue to be characterized as
a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan. 

SERVICING AND OTHER COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES

     The primary  compensation  to be paid to the Master  Servicer in respect of
its servicing activities (including fees to be paid to any sub-servicer) will be
the  Master  Servicing  Fee  (together  with  the  Special  Servicing  Fee,  the
"Servicing  Fees").  The  "Master  Servicing  Fee" will be payable  monthly on a
loan-by-loan basis from amounts received in respect of interest on each Mortgage
Loan or as  otherwise  described  herein,  will  accrue  at the  related  Master
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 due
on the Mortgage Loan is computed.  The "Master Servicing Fee Rate" will be a per
annum rate equal to 0.090% in the case of six (6) Mortgage Loans (2%), 0.095% in
the case of 337 Mortgage  Loans (78%),  0.125% in the case of 21 Mortgage  Loans
(6%), 0.135% in the case of one Mortgage Loan (0.49%), 0.160% in



                                      S-51
<PAGE>


the case of 23 Mortgage  Loans  (12%),  and ranging from 0.235% to 0.255% in the
case of three Mortgage Loans (0.72%).  The weighted average Master Servicing Fee
Rate  as of the  Cut-Off  Date  will be  0.107  %. In  addition,  as  additional
servicing compensation,  the Master Servicer, in addition to Prepayment Interest
Excesses  and with  respect to Mortgage  Loans that are not  Specially  Serviced
Mortgage  Loans,  and the  Special  Servicer,  with  respect  to such  Specially
Serviced  Mortgage  Loans,  will  be  entitled  to  retain  all  assumption  and
modification  fees,  assumption  application  fees,  late charges,  exit fees or
repayment  fees  collected from  borrowers on the related  Mortgage  Loans.  The
Master  Servicer  and the Special  Servicer  will each be entitled to 50% of any
assumption  fees paid with  respect to those  Mortgage  Loans  that the  Special
Servicer has approved the related assumption.  The Master Servicer is authorized
to invest or direct the investment of funds held in the  Certificate  Account in
certain  short-term  United States  government  securities and other  investment
grade  obligations,  and the  Master  Servicer  will be  entitled  to retain any
interest or other  income  earned on such funds,  but shall be required to cover
any losses from its own fund without any right to reimbursement.

     If a borrower  voluntarily  prepays a Mortgage Loan on a date that is prior
to its Due Date in a  Collection  Period,  the  amount of  interest  (net of the
related  Master  Servicing  Fee) that accrues on the  Mortgage  Loan during such
Collection  Period  will  be  less  (such  shortfall,   a  "Prepayment  Interest
Shortfall")  than the  amount of  interest  (net of related  Servicing  Fees and
without regard to any Prepayment  Premium or Yield  Maintenance  Charge actually
collected) that would have accrued on the Mortgage Loan through its Due Date. If
such a principal  prepayment  occurs during any Collection  Period after the Due
Date for such Mortgage Loan in such  Collection  Period,  the amount of interest
(net of  related  Servicing  Fees  and the  Trustee  Fee)  that  accrues  and is
collected on the Mortgage Loans during such Collection  Period will exceed (such
excess, a "Prepayment  Interest  Excess") the amount of interest (net of related
Servicing Fee and the Trustee Fee and without regard to any  Prepayment  Premium
or Yield Maintenance  Charge actually  collected) that would have been collected
on the  Mortgage  Loan during such  Collection  Period if the  borrower  had not
prepaid.  Any Prepayment  Interest Excesses collected will be paid to the Master
Servicer as additional  servicing  compensation.  However,  with respect to each
Distribution  Date,  the Master  Servicer  will be required to deposit  into the
Certificate Account (such deposit, a "Compensating  Interest Payment"),  without
any right of  reimbursement  therefor,  an amount equal to the lesser of (i) its
total servicing  compensation for the related Collection  Period,  including any
Prepayment  Interest Excesses received during such Collection  Period,  and (ii)
the  aggregate of any  Prepayment  Interest  Shortfalls  experienced  during the
related  Collection  Period.  Compensating  Interest  Payments  will  not  cover
shortfalls in Mortgage Loan interest  accruals that result from any  liquidation
of a  defaulted  Mortgage  Loan,  or of any REO  Property  acquired  in  respect
thereof,  that occurs  during a Collection  Period prior to the related Due Date
therein.

     As  and  to  the  extent  described   herein  under   "DESCRIPTION  OF  THE
CERTIFICATES--P&I  Advances,"  the Master  Servicer  will be entitled to receive
interest,  at the Reimbursement Rate, on any P&I Advances made by it and each of
the Master  Servicer and the Special  Servicer will be entitled to interest,  at
the Reimbursement  Rate, on any reimbursable  servicing expenses incurred by it.
Such interest will compound annually and will be paid contemporaneously with the
reimbursement  of the related P&I Advance or  servicing  expense,  from  general
collections on the Mortgage Loans then on deposit in the Certificate Account.

     The principal compensation to be paid to the Special Servicer in respect of
its special  servicing  activities will be the Special  Servicing Fee and, under
the  circumstances  described  herein,  Principal  Recovery  Fees.  The "Special
Servicing Fee" will accrue at a rate (the "Special Servicing Fee Rate") equal to
0.25% per annum and will be computed on the basis of the same  principal  amount
and for the same period  respecting  which any related  interest  payment on the
Specially  Serviced  Mortgage  Loan or REO  Loan is  computed.  However,  earned
Special  Servicing  Fees  will be  payable  out of  general  collections  on the
Mortgage Loans then on deposit in the Certificate Account. The Special Servicing
Fee with respect to any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan will cease to accrue if
such  Mortgage  Loan is liquidated  or becomes a Corrected  Mortgage  Loan.  The
Special Servicer will be entitled to a "Principal  Recovery Fee" with respect to
each Specially Serviced Trust Fund Asset and Corrected Mortgage Loan serviced by
the Special  Servicer,  which  Principal  Recovery Fee  generally  will be in an
amount equal to 0.25% of all amounts  received in respect  thereof and allocable
as a recovery of principal.  However,  no Principal Recovery Fee will be payable
in  connection  with,  or  out  of  Liquidation  Proceeds  (as  defined  in  the
Prospectus)  resulting  from, the purchase of any Specially  Serviced Trust Fund
Asset or Corrected  Mortgage  Loan (i) by a Mortgage  Loan Seller (as  described
herein  under  "DESCRIPTION  OF THE  MORTGAGE  POOL--Assignment  of the Mortgage
Loans; Repurchases" and "--Representations and Warranties; Repurchases," (ii) by
the Master Servicer or the Depositor as described



                                      S-52
<PAGE>


herein under "DESCRIPTION OF THE  CERTIFICATES--Termination" or (iii) in certain
other limited circumstances set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As
additional  servicing  compensation,  the Special  Servicer  will be entitled to
retain all assumption fees,  modification fees and late payment charges received
on or with respect to the Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans.

     The Pooling and  Servicing  Agreement  will provide that each of the Master
Servicer and the Special  Servicer  will comply with the  provisions of the Code
and the Treasury Regulations thereunder relating to REMICs.

     Each of the Master Servicer and the Special  Servicer will, in general,  be
required to pay all  ordinary  expenses  incurred by it in  connection  with its
servicing  activities under the Pooling and Servicing  Agreement,  including the
fees  of any  sub-servicers  retained  by  it,  and  will  not  be  entitled  to
reimbursement therefor except as expressly provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement. However, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer will be
permitted to pay certain of such expenses  (including  certain expenses incurred
as a result of a Mortgage Loan default) directly out of the Certificate  Account
and at times  without  regard to the  relationship  between  the expense and the
funds   from   which   it   is   being   paid.   See    "DESCRIPTION    OF   THE
CERTIFICATES--Distributions"    herein   and   "DESCRIPTION   OF   THE   POOLING
AGREEMENTS--Certificate  Account" and  "--Servicing  Compensation and Payment of
Expenses" in the Prospectus. 

MODIFICATIONS, WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS

     The Pooling and Servicing Agreement will permit the Special Servicer or the
Master  Servicer,  as  applicable,  to  modify,  waive or amend  any term of any
Mortgage Loan if (a) it determines,  in accordance  with the servicing  standard
described  under  "--General"  above,  that it is  appropriate  to do so and (b)
except as described in the following  paragraph,  such  modification,  waiver or
amendment will not (i) affect the amount or timing of any scheduled  payments of
principal,  interest or other amount  (including  Prepayment  Premiums)  payable
under the Mortgage Loan,  (ii) affect the obligation of the related  borrower to
pay a Prepayment Premium or permit a principal  prepayment during the applicable
Lockout Period, (iii) except as expressly provided by the related Mortgage or in
connection  with a  material  adverse  environmental  condition  at the  related
Mortgaged  Property,  result in a release of the lien of the related Mortgage on
any  material  portion  of  such  Mortgaged  Property  without  a  corresponding
principal  prepayment  or (iv) in the  judgment of the  Special  Servicer or the
Master Servicer, as applicable,  materially impair the security for the Mortgage
Loan or reduce  the  likelihood  of  timely  payment  of  amounts  due  thereon;
provided,  however,  with respect to any  determination to be made by the Master
Servicer,  the Master Servicer will notify the Special Servicer of its intent to
modify,  waive or amend any term of any Mortgage Loan no less than five business
days prior to taking such  action.  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  the Master
Servicer may take any action prior to the  expiration  of such five business day
period if, in the Master Servicer's sole reasonable  judgment, a delay in taking
such action would be inconsistent with the servicing standard.

     Notwithstanding clause (b) of the preceding paragraph, the Special Servicer
may (i) reduce the amounts owing under any Specially  Serviced  Mortgage Loan by
forgiving principal, accrued interest and/or any Prepayment Premium, (ii) reduce
the amount of the Periodic  Payment on any  Specially  Serviced  Mortgage  Loan,
including by way of a reduction in the related  Mortgage Rate,  (iii) forbear in
the  enforcement  of any right  granted  under  any  Mortgage  Note or  Mortgage
relating to a Specially  Serviced Mortgage Loan,  including the extension of the
date on which  any  Balloon  Payment  is due,  and/or  (iv)  accept a  principal
prepayment during any Lockout Period; provided, that (x) the related borrower is
in default  with respect to such  Specially  Serviced  Mortgage  Loan or, in the
judgment of the Special Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable, (y) in
the sole, good faith judgment of the Special Servicer, such modification, waiver
or amendment would increase the recovery to  Certificateholders on a net present
value  basis  documented  to the Trustee  and (z) such  modification,  waiver or
amendment  does not result in a tax being imposed on the Trust Fund or cause any
of the REMICs created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time the Certificates are outstanding.  However, in no
event shall the Special  Servicer be  permitted  to extend the date on which any
Balloon Payment is due beyond a date which is two years prior to the Rated Final
Distribution Date.

     The  Special  Servicer  and the Master  Servicer,  as  applicable,  will be
required  to notify the  Trustee,  the Rating  Agencies  and, in the case of the
Special Servicer,  the Master Servicer of any modification,  waiver or amendment
of any term of any Mortgage  Loan,  and to deliver to the Trustee or the related
Custodian  (with a copy to the Master  Servicer),  for  deposit  in the  related
Mortgage  File,  an  original  counterpart  of the  agreement  related  to  such
modification, waiver or amendment, promptly (and in any event within 10 business
days) following the execution thereof. Copies of each agreement whereby any such
modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any



                                      S-53
<PAGE>


Mortgage  Loan is effected are required to be available for review during normal
business  hours  at  the  offices  of  the  Trustee.  See  "DESCRIPTION  OF  THE
CERTIFICATES--Reports to Certificateholders; Available Infor-mation" herein.

REO PROPERTIES

     If title to any  Mortgaged  Property  is acquired by the Trust Fund for the
benefit of the Certificateholders pursuant to foreclosure proceedings instituted
by the Special  Servicer or otherwise,  the Special  Servicer,  on behalf of the
Trust Fund,  will be required to sell the Mortgaged  Property prior to the close
of the third taxable year following the taxable year of acquisition,  unless (i)
the Internal  Revenue  Service grants an extension of time to sell such property
(an "REO  Extension") or (ii) the Special Servicer obtains an opinion of counsel
generally  to the effect  that the holding of the  property  for more than three
years after the end of the taxable  year in which the Trust Fund  acquires  such
property  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  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  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 Special Servicer of its obligations
with respect to such REO Property.

     In general,  the Special Servicer or an independent  contractor employed by
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 reasonable, maximize the Trust Fund's net
after-tax  proceeds from such property.  After 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 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  reasonable  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 tax at the highest  marginal  corporate  tax
rate (currently  35%) or (ii)  "prohibited  transactions,"  such income would be
subject to federal 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 Special  Servicer  would be  apportioned  and  classified  as  "service"  or
"non-service"  income.  The "service" portion of such income could be subject to
federal 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 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  "MATERIAL  FEDERAL  INCOME TAX
CONSEQUENCES" herein and "MATERIAL FEDERAL INCOME TAX  CONSEQUENCES--REMICs"  in
the Prospectus. 

INSPECTIONS; COLLECTION OF OPERATING INFORMATION

     The Special Servicer will be required to perform or cause to be performed a
physical  inspection of a Mortgaged  Property as soon as  practicable  after the
related Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially  Serviced  Mortgage Loan. In addition,
the Special Servicer will be required to inspect or cause the inspection of each
Mortgaged  Property at least once per calendar  year (or in the case of Mortgage
Loans with a  principal  balance of less than $3 million at  origination,  every
other calendar year) if, in a given calendar year,  such Mortgaged  Property has
not already been inspected by the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer will be
required to prepare a written  report of each such  inspection  performed  by it
that  describes the condition of the Mortgaged  Property and that  specifies the
existence  with  respect  thereto of any sale,  transfer or  abandonment  or any
material change in its condition or value that is apparent from such inspection.

     The Special Servicer is also required to use reasonable  efforts to collect
from the related  borrower and review the annual,  and to the extent required by
the related Mortgage, quarterly, operating statements of each Mortgaged



                                      S-54
<PAGE>


Property and to cause annual  operating  statements  to be prepared for each REO
Property.  Each of the  Mortgages  requires  the related  borrower to deliver an
annual property operating statement. However, there can be no assurance that any
operating statement required to be delivered will in fact be delivered,  or that
the Special  Servicer will have any practical  means of compelling such delivery
in the case of an otherwise performing Mortgage Loan.

     Copies of the inspection reports and operating statements referred to above
are  required to be available  for review by  Certificateholders  during  normal
business  hours  at  the  offices  of  the  Trustee.  See  "DESCRIPTION  OF  THE
CERTIFICATES--Reports to Certificateholders; Available Information" herein.

                         DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES

GENERAL

     The  Depositor's  Mortgage Pass Through  Certificates,  Series 1998-C2 (the
"Certificates") will be issued pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to
be dated as of March 1, 1998,  among the  Depositor,  the Master  Servicer,  the
Special Servicer, and the Trustee (the "Pooling and Servicing  Agreement").  The
Certificates  will  represent in the aggregate the entire  beneficial  ownership
interest in a trust fund (the "Trust  Fund")  consisting  primarily  of: (i) the
Mortgage Loans and all payments and other collections in respect of the Mortgage
Loans  received or applicable  to periods  after the Cut-Off Date  (exclusive of
payments of principal and interest due, and principal  prepayments  received, on
or before the Cut-Off  Date);  (ii) any REO  Property  acquired on behalf of the
Trust Fund; (iii) such funds or assets as from time to time are deposited in the
Certificate  Account (see  "DESCRIPTION  OF THE POOLING  AGREEMENTS--Certificate
Account" in the Prospectus);  and (iv) certain rights of the Depositor under the
Mortgage Loan Purchase  Agreements  relating to Mortgage Loan document  delivery
requirements and the representations and warranties of the Mortgage Loan Sellers
regarding the Mortgage Loans.

     The Certificates will consist of the following classes (each, a "Class") to
be designated as: (i) the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
E, Class F, Class G,  Class H, Class J and Class K  Certificates  (collectively,
the "Sequential  Pay  Certificates");  (ii) the Class IO Certificates  (together
with the Sequential Pay  Certificates,  the "REMIC Regular  Certificates");  and
(iii) one or more  classes of REMIC  residual  certificates  (collectively,  the
"REMIC Residual Certificates").

     Only the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E and Class
IO Certificates  (collectively,  the "Offered Certificates") are offered hereby.
The Class F, Class G, Class H, Class J, Class K and REMIC Residual  Certificates
(collectively,  the "Private  Certificates")  have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the  "Securities  Act"), and are not offered
hereby.  Accordingly,  information  herein  regarding  the terms of the  Private
Certificates  is  provided  solely  because  of  its  potential  relevance  to a
prospective purchaser of an Offered Certificate 

REGISTRATION AND DENOMINATIONS

     The Offered  Certificates  will be issued in book-entry  format through the
facilities of The Depository  Trust Company  ("DTC").  Each Offered  Certificate
will be issued in  denominations  of not less than  $100,000  actual or notional
principal amount and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof.

     Each Class of Offered  Certificates will initially be represented by one or
more  global  Certificates  registered  in the name of the  nominee of DTC.  The
Depositor  has been  informed  by DTC that DTC's  nominee  will be Cede & Co. No
beneficial owner of an Offered Certificate (each, a "Certificate Owner") will be
entitled to receive a fully registered, certificated form of such Certificate (a
"Definitive  Offered  Certificate"),  except  under  the  limited  circumstances
described in the Prospectus under  "DESCRIPTION OF THE  CERTIFICATES--Book-Entry
Registration and Definitive  Certificates."  Unless and until Definitive Offered
Certificates  are  issued  in  respect  of  a  Class  of  Offered  Certificates,
beneficial ownership interests in such Class will be recorded and transferred on
the  book-entry  records  of  DTC  and  its  participating   organizations  (the
"Participants"),  and all references to actions by holders of a Class of Offered
Certificates will refer to actions taken by DTC upon instructions  received from
the related  Certificate  Owners through the Participants in accordance with DTC
procedures,  and  all  references  herein  to  payments,  notices,  reports  and
statements  to the  holders  of a Class of  Offered  Certificates  will refer to
payments,  notices,  reports  and  statements  to  DTC or  Cede  &  Co.,  as the
registered holder thereof,  for distribution to the related  Certificate  Owners
through the  Participants in accordance  with DTC  procedures.  The form of such
payments and transfers may result in certain delays in receipt of payments by an
investor and may restrict an investor's ability to



                                      S-55
<PAGE>


pledge its securities.  None of the Depositor,  the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer  or the  Trustee or any of their  respective  affiliates  will have any
liability  for any  actions  taken  by DTC or its  nominee,  including,  without
limitation,  actions for any aspect of the records  relating to or payments made
on account of beneficial  ownership  interests in Offered  Certificates  held by
Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any
records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. See "DESCRIPTION OF THE
CERTIFICATES--Book-Entry  Registration  and Definitive  Certificates"  and "RISK
FACTORS--Book-Entry  Registration" in the Prospectus.  

CERTIFICATE BALANCES AND NOTIONAL AMOUNTS

     Upon initial issuance,  and in each case subject to a permitted variance of
plus or minus 5%, the  Sequential  Pay  Certificates  will have the  Certificate
Balances, representing the approximate percentage of the Initial Pool Balance as
set forth in the following table:

                                                              PERCENT OF INITIAL
                                            INITIAL                  POOL
      CLASS OF CERTIFICATE            CERTIFICATE BALANCE           BALANCE
      --------------------            -------------------          --------
           Class A-1 ................     $229,904,000               21.1%
           Class A-2 ................     $559,138,000               51.4%
           Class B ..................     $ 32,650,000                3.0%
           Class C ..................     $ 59,859,000                5.5%
           Class D ..................     $ 70,742,000                6.5%
           Class E ..................     $ 16,325,000                1.5%
           Class F ..................     $ 59,858,000                5.5%
           Class G ..................     $  5,442,000                0.5%
           Class H ..................     $ 21,766,000                2.0%
           Class J ..................     $  5,442,000                0.5%
           Class K ..................     $ 27,209,034                2.5%
         
     The  "Certificate  Balance"  of any Class of  Sequential  Pay  Certificates
outstanding at any time  represents the maximum amount that 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
Certificate Balance of each Class of Sequential Pay Certificates will be reduced
on each  Distribution  Date by any  distributions of principal  actually made on
such  Class of  Certificates  on such  Distribution  Date,  and  further  by any
Realized  Losses and  Additional  Trust Fund Expenses that are allocated to such
Class of  Certificates  on such  Distribution  Date pursuant to the terms of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

     The  Class IO  Certificates  will not have a  principal  balance,  but will
represent  the  right  to  receive  distributions  of  interest  accrued  on the
respective  notional amount of each of its Components  (each a "Component"),  as
described  herein.  Each such  Component  will relate to each separate  Class of
Sequential  Pay  Certificates  with  the  same  Class  designation.  As  of  any
Distribution  Date,  each  Component  will have a notional  amount  equal to the
Certificate  Balance of the related Class of Certificates  immediately  prior to
such  Distribution  Date.  The Components do not represent  separate  Classes of
Certificates,  but rather  separate  components,  each of which is a part of the
Class IO Certificates.

     None of the REMIC Residual Certificates will have a Certificate Balance.

PASS-THROUGH RATES

     The   Pass-Through   Rate  applicable  to  each  Class  of  Sequential  Pay
Certificates  for  each  Distribution  Date is set  forth  in the  table  at the
beginning of the Summary.

     The Class IO  Certificates  will receive  payments of interest equal to the
aggregate  of the  interest  accrued  on the  notional  amount  of  each  of its
Components.  Each Component will accrue interest at its applicable Strip Rate on
its related  notional  amount.  The Strip Rate  applicable  to the Class A-1 and
Class A-2 Components for each  Distribution Date will equal the Weighted Average
Net Mortgage Rate for such Distribution  Date minus ___% and ___%,  respectively
(but not less than  zero);  the Strip Rate  applicable  to the Class B, Class C,
Class D and Class E



                                      S-56
<PAGE>


Components  for each  Distribution  Date will equal ___%,  ___%,  ___% and ___%,
respectively;  and the Strip Rate  applicable  to the Class F, Class G, Class H,
Class J and Class K Components  for each  Distribution  Date will each equal the
Weighted  Average Net Mortgage Rate for such  Distribution  Date minus ___% (but
not less than zero).

     The REMIC Residual Certificates will not bear interest,  but will represent
the right to receive certain limited amounts not otherwise  payable on the REMIC
Regular Certificates.

     The "Weighted  Average Net Mortgage Rate" for each Distribution Date is the
weighted  average of the Net  Mortgage  Rates for the  Mortgage  Loans as of the
commencement of the related  Collection Period (as defined herein),  weighted on
the basis of their respective Stated Principal Balances outstanding  immediately
prior to such Distribution  Date. The "Net Mortgage Rate" for each Mortgage Loan
will  equal (x) the  Mortgage  Rate in effect for such  Mortgage  Loan as of the
Cut-Off Date,  minus (y) the  Administrative  Cost Rate (as defined  herein) for
such Mortgage Loan; provided, that if any Mortgage Loan does not accrue interest
on the basis of a 360-day year  consisting of twelve 30-day months (which is the
basis on which interest accrues in respect of the Sequential Pay  Certificates),
then,  solely for the purpose of calculating  the Weighted  Average Net Mortgage
Rate,  the  Mortgage  Rate  referred  to in  clause  (x)  will,  to  the  extent
appropriate, be adjusted from accrual period to accrual period to compensate for
such  difference.   The  "Stated  Principal   Balance"  of  each  Mortgage  Loan
outstanding at any time  represents the principal  balance of such Mortgage Loan
ultimately  due and payable  thereon and  generally  will equal the Cut-Off Date
Balance thereof,  reduced on each  Distribution  Date (to not less than zero) by
(i) any payments or other collections (or advances in lieu thereof) of principal
on such Mortgage  Loan that are due or received,  as the case may be, during the
related   Collection   Period  and  distributed  on  the  Certificates  on  such
Distribution  Date and (ii) the principal  portion of any Realized Loss incurred
in respect of such Mortgage Loan during the related  Collection  Period for such
Distribution Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  if any Mortgage Loan is paid
in full,  liquidated or otherwise removed from the Trust Fund,  commencing as of
the first  Distribution  Date following the Collection  Period during which such
event occurred, the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan will be zero.
See "DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES--Pass-Through Rates" herein.

     The "Collection  Period" for each Distribution Date will be the period that
begins  immediately  following the Determination Date in the month preceding the
month in which such  Distribution  Date  occurs  (or, in the case of the initial
Distribution  Date,  immediately  following  the  Cut-Off  Date) and ends on and
includes the Determination Date in the same month as such Distribution Date. The
"Determination  Date" will be the 10th day of each month (or,  if not a business
day, the next succeeding business day). 

DISTRIBUTIONS

     General.  Distributions on the Certificates will be made by the Trustee, to
the  extent of  available  funds,  on the 15th day of each month or, if any such
15th day is not a business  day, then on the next  succeeding  business day with
the same force and effect and no additional  interest  shall accrue,  commencing
April 16,  1998 (each,  a  "Distribution  Date");  provided,  however,  that the
Distribution  Date will be no earlier than the fourth business day following the
related  Determination  Date. Except as described below, all such  distributions
will be made to the persons in whose names the  Certificates are registered (the
"Certificateholders")  at the close of business on the last  business day of the
month  preceding  the month in which the  related  Distribution  Date occurs and
shall  be  made  by  wire  transfer  of  immediately  available  funds,  if such
Certificateholder shall have provided written wiring instructions to the Trustee
no less than five business days prior to such record date, or otherwise by check
mailed to the address of such Certificateholder as it appears in the Certificate
register.  The final distribution on any Certificate  (determined without regard
to any possible future  reimbursement  of any Realized Loss or Additional  Trust
Fund Expense  previously  allocated to such  Certificate) will be made only upon
presentation  and  surrender of such  Certificate  at the location  that will be
specified  in  a  notice  of  the  pendency  of  such  final  distribution.  All
distributions made with respect to a Class of Certificates will be allocated pro
rata among the outstanding  Certificates of such Class based on their respective
percentage interests in such Class.

     The  Available  Distribution  Amount.  The aggregate  amount  available for
distribution to  Certificateholders  on each  Distribution  Date (the "Available
Distribution Amount") will, in general, equal the sum of the following amounts:

          (a) the total  amount of all cash  received  on or in  respect  of the
     Mortgage  Loans and any REO  Properties  by the Master  Servicer  as of the
     close of business  on the  related  Determination  Date,  exclusive  of any
     portion thereof that represents one or more of the following:

               (i) any Periodic  Payments  collected but due on a Due Date after
          the related Collection Period,



                                      S-57
<PAGE>


               (ii) any Prepayment Premiums,

               (iii) Additional Interest and default interest, and


               (iv) all amounts in the  Certificate  Account that are payable or
          reimbursable   to  any  person  other  than  the   Certificateholders,
          including any Servicing Fees and Trustee Fees and any Additional Trust
          Fund Expenses;

          (b) all P&I Advances  made by the Master  Servicer or the Trustee with
     respect to such Distribution Date;

          (c) any  Compensating  Interest Payment made by the Master Servicer to
     cover the  aggregate  of any  Prepayment  Interest  Shortfalls  experienced
     during the  related  Collection  Period.  See  "SERVICING  OF THE  MORTGAGE
     LOANS--Servicing and Other Compensation and Payment of Expenses" and "--P&I
     Advances" herein and "DESCRIPTION OF THE POOLING  AGREEMENTS  --Certificate
     Account" in the Prospectus.

     Any Prepayment  Premiums actually collected will be distributed  separately
from the Available  Distribution  Amount.  See  "--Distributions--Allocation  of
Prepayment Premiums" herein.

     Application of Available  Distribution  Amount. On each Distribution  Date,
for  so  long  as the  aggregate  Certificate  Balance  of  the  Sequential  Pay
Certificates  is greater  than  zero,  the  Trustee  will  (except as  otherwise
described under "--Termination"  below) apply the Available  Distribution Amount
for such date for the following purposes and in the following order of priority,
in each case to the extent of the Available Distribution Amount:

          (1) to  distributions  of  interest  to the  holders of the Class A-1,
     Class  A-2 and Class IO  Certificates  (in each  case,  so long as any such

     amounts  of  Distributable  Certificate  Interest  (as  defined  herein) in
     respect of such Classes of  Certificates  on such  Distribution  Date in an
     amount equal to all Distributable  Certificate  Interest in respect of each
     such Class of Certificates  for such  Distribution  Date and, to the extent
     not previously paid, for all prior Distribution Dates;

          (2) to  distributions  of  principal  to the  holders of the Class A-1
     Certificates in an amount (not to exceed the then  outstanding  Certificate

     Amount (as defined herein) for such Distribution Date;

          (3)  after  the  Class  A-1   Certificates   have  been  retired,   to

     Class A-1 Certificates;

          (4) to  distributions  to the  holders  of the Class A-1 and Class A-2

     Distribution  Date, less any portion thereof  distributed in respect of the
     Class A-1 and/or Class A-2 Certificates on such Distribution Date;

     Class E Certificates  have been retired,  to  distributions of principal to
     the  holders of the Class F  Certificates  in an amount  (not to exceed the
     then outstanding  Certificate  Balance of such Class of Certificates) equal
     to the Principal  Distribution  Amount for such Distribution Date, less any
     portion  thereof  distributed in respect of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class
     B, Class C, Class D and/or Class E Certificates;

          (19) to  distributions  to the holders of the Class F Certificates  to
     reimburse such holders for all Realized  Losses and  Additional  Trust Fund
     Expenses,  if any,  previously  allocated to such Class of Certificates and
     for which no reimbursement has previously been received;

          (20) to  distributions  of  interest  to the  holders  of the  Class G
     Certificates in an amount equal to all Distributable  Certificate  Interest
     in respect of such Class of Certificates for such Distribution Date and, to
     the extent not previously paid, for all prior Distribution Dates;

          (21) after the Class A-1,  Class A-2, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
     E and Class F Certificates have been retired, to distributions of principal
     to the holders of the Class G Certificates  in an amount (not to exceed the
     then outstanding  Certificate  Balance of such Class of Certificates) equal
     to the Principal  Distribution  Amount for such Distribution Date, less any
     portion  thereof  distributed in respect of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class
     B, Class C, Class D, Class E and/or Class F Certificates;

          (22) to  distributions  to the holders of the Class G Certificates  to

          (23) to  distributions  of  interest  to the  holders  of the  Class H
     Certificates in an amount equal to all Distributable  Certificate  Interest
     in respect of such Class of Certificates for such Distribution Date and, to
     the extent not previously paid, for all prior Distribution Dates;

          (24) after the Class A-1,  Class A-2, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
     E, Class F and Class G Certificates have been retired,  to distributions of
     principal to the holders of the Class H  Certificates  in an amount (not to
     exceed  the  then  outstanding   Certificate   Balance  of  such  Class  of
     Certificates)   equal  to  the  Principal   Distribution  Amount  for  such
     Distribution  Date, less any portion thereof  distributed in respect of the
     Class A-1,  Class  A-2,  Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F and/or
     Class G Certificates;

          (25) to  distributions  to the holders of the Class H Certificates  to
     reimburse such holders for all Realized  Losses and  Additional  Trust Fund
     Expenses,  if any, previously  allocated to each such Class of Certificates
     and for which no reimbursement has previously been received;

          (26) to  distributions  of  interest  to the  holders  of the  Class J
     Certificates in an amount equal to all Distributable  Certificate  Interest
     in respect of such Class of Certificates for such Distribution Date and, to
     the extent not previously paid, for all prior Distribution Dates;

          (27) after the Class A-1,  Class A-2, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
     E,  Class  F,  Class G and  Class H  Certificates  have  been  retired,  to
     distributions of principal to the holders of the Class J Certificates in an
     amount  (not to exceed  the then  outstanding  Certificate  Balance of such
     Class of Certificates) equal to the Principal  Distribution Amount for such
     Distribution  Date, less any portion thereof  distributed in respect of the
     Class A-1,  Class A-2, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G
     and/or Class H Certificates;

          (28) to  distributions  to the holders of the Class J Certificates  to
     reimburse such holders for all Realized  Losses and  Additional  Trust Fund
     Expenses,  if any, previously  allocated to each such Class of Certificates
     and for which no reimbursement has previously been received;

          (29) to  distributions  of  interest  to the  holders  of the  Class K
     Certificates in an amount equal to all Distributable  Certificate  Interest
     in respect of such Class of Certificates for such Distribution Date and, to
     the extent not previously paid, for all prior Distribution Dates;

          (30) after the Class A-1,  Class A-2, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class
     E, Class F, Class G, Class H and Class J Certificates have been retired, to
     distributions of principal to the holders of the Class K Certificates in an
     amount  (not to exceed  the then  outstanding  Certificate  Balance of such
     Class of Certificates) equal to the Principal  Distribution Amount for such
     Distribution  Date, less any portion thereof  distributed in respect of the
     Class A-1, Class A-2, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G,
     Class H and/or Class J Certificates;

          (31) to  distributions  to the holders of the Class K Certificates  to
     reimburse such holders for all Realized  Losses and  Additional  Trust Fund
     Expenses,  if any, previously  allocated to each such Class of Certificates
     and for which no reimbursement has previously been received; and

          (32)  to   distributions   to  the  holders  of  the  REMIC   Residual
     Certificates  in an amount equal to the balance,  if any, of the  Available
     Distribution  Amount  remaining after the  distributions to be made on such
     Distribution Date as described in clauses (1) through (31) above.

     Distributable   Certificate   Interest.   The  "Distributable   Certificate
Interest"  in  respect  of any  Class of  REMIC  Regular  Certificates  for each
Distribution Date represents that portion of the Accrued Certificate Interest in
respect of such Class of Certificates and such Distribution Date reduced (to not
less than zero) by such Class's  allocable share (calculated as described below)
of the aggregate of any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls  resulting from voluntary
principal  prepayments made on the Mortgage Loans during the related  Collection
Period  that are not  covered by the  Master  Servicer's  Compensating  Interest
Payment for such  Distribution  Date (the aggregate of such Prepayment  Interest
Shortfalls  that are not so  covered,  as to such  Distribution  Date,  the "Net
Aggregate Prepayment Interest Shortfall").

     The "Accrued  Certificate  Interest" in respect of each Class of Sequential
Pay Certificates for each  Distribution Date is equal to one month's interest at
the  Pass-Through  Rate  applicable  to such  Class  of  Certificates  and  such
Distribution Date accrued during the immediately preceding calendar month on the
related Certificate  Balance outstanding  immediately prior to such Distribution
Date. The "Accrued Certificate Interest" in respect of the Class IO Certificates
for each  Distribution  Date is equal to the sum of one month's  interest at the
Strip Rate applicable to each



                                      S-60
<PAGE>


such  Component  and such  Distribution  Date  accrued  during  the  immediately
preceding calendar month on the related notional amount outstanding on each such
Component  immediately  prior to such  Distribution  Date.  Accrued  Certificate
Interest will be calculated on a 30/360 day basis.

     The portion of the Net  Aggregate  Prepayment  Interest  Shortfall  for any
Distribution Date that is allocable to each Class of REMIC Regular  Certificates
will equal the product of (a) such Net Aggregate  Prepayment Interest Shortfall,
multiplied  by (b) a fraction,  the  numerator  of which is equal to the Accrued
Certificate  Interest  in  respect  of  such  Class  of  Certificates  for  such
Distribution  Date,  and the  denominator  of which  is  equal to the  aggregate
Accrued  Certificate  Interest for all the REMIC Regular  Certificates  for such
Distribution Date.

     Principal Distribution Amount. The "Principal Distribution Amount" for each
Distribution Date will generally equal the aggregate of the following:

          (a) the aggregate of the principal  portions of all Scheduled Payments
     (other  than  Balloon  Payments)  due,  and the  principal  portions of any
     Assumed  Scheduled  Payments  deemed due, on or in respect of the  Mortgage
     Loans  for  their   respective  Due  Dates  occurring  during  the  related
     Collection Period;

          (b)  the  aggregate  of  all  principal  prepayments  received  on the
     Mortgage  Loans  during  the  related   Collection  Period  (including  any
     Remaining Cash Flow);

          (c) with respect to any Mortgage  Loan as to which the related  stated
     maturity date occurred  during or prior to the related  Collection  Period,
     any  payment  of  principal  made by or on behalf of the  related  borrower
     during the related  Collection Period (including any Balloon Payment),  net
     of any portion of such payment that  represents a recovery of the principal
     portion of any Scheduled  Payment (other than a Balloon Payment) due or the
     principal  portion of any Assumed  Scheduled Payment deemed due, in respect
     of  such  Mortgage  Loan on a Due  Date  during  or  prior  to the  related
     Collection Period and not previously recovered;

          (d) the aggregate of all Liquidation  Proceeds and Insurance  Proceeds
     (each as defined in the  Prospectus),  condemnation  awards and proceeds of
     Mortgage Loan  repurchases  that were received on or in respect of Mortgage
     Loans during the related  Collection  Period and that were  identified  and
     applied by the Master Servicer as recoveries of principal, in each case net
     of any portion of such amounts that  represents a recovery of the principal
     portion of any Scheduled  Payment (other than a Balloon Payment) due, or of
     the  principal  portion of any  Assumed  Scheduled  Payment  deemed due, in
     respect of the related  Mortgage  Loan on a Due Date during or prior to the
     related Collection Period and not previously recovered; and

          (e)  if  such   Distribution   Date  is   subsequent  to  the  initial
     Distribution Date, the excess, if any, of the Principal Distribution Amount
     for  the  immediately  preceding  Distribution  Date,  over  the  aggregate
     distributions  of principal made on the  Certificates  on such  immediately
     preceding Distribution Date.

     The "Scheduled Payment" due on any Mortgage Loan on any related Due Date is
the amount of the Periodic  Payment that is or would have been,  as the case may
be, due  thereon on such date,  without  regard to any waiver,  modification  or
amendment of such Mortgage  Loan granted or agreed to by the Master  Servicer or
the  Special  Servicer  or  otherwise  resulting  from a  bankruptcy  or similar
proceeding  involving the related  borrower or the  application of any Remaining
Cash Flow with  respect to an ARD Loan,  and assuming  that each prior  Periodic
Payment has been made in a timely manner.  The "Assumed Scheduled Payment" is an
amount  deemed due (i) in  respect of any  Balloon  Loan that is  delinquent  in
respect of its Balloon Payment beyond the first  Determination Date that follows
its  stated  maturity  date and (ii) in respect  of each REO Loan.  The  Assumed
Scheduled  Payment  deemed due on any such Balloon  Loan on its stated  maturity
date and on each  successive  related  Due Date that it  remains or is deemed to
remain  outstanding  will equal the  Scheduled  Payment that would have been due
thereon on such date if the related  Balloon Payment had not come due but rather
such  Mortgage  Loan had  continued to amortize in  accordance  with such loan's
amortization  schedule, if any, in effect prior to its stated maturity date. The
Assumed  Scheduled  Payment deemed due on any REO Loan on each Due Date that the
related REO  Property  remains  part of the Trust Fund will equal the  Scheduled
Payment that would have been due in respect of such predecessor Mortgage Loan on
such  Due Date had it  remained  outstanding  or,  if such  Mortgage  Loan was a
Balloon  Loan  and such Due Date  coincides  with or  follows  what had been its
stated maturity date, the Assumed  Scheduled Payment that would have been deemed
due in  respect  of  such  Mortgage  Loan  on  such  Due  Date  had it  remained
outstanding.

     Distributions of the Principal Distribution Amount will constitute the only
distributions  of  principal  on the  Certificates.  Reimbursements  of Realized
Losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses previously allocated to principal will
not constitute distributions of principal for any purpose and will not result in
an additional  reduction in the Certificate Balance of the Class of Certificates
in respect of which any such reimbursement is made.



                                      S-61

     Treatment of REO Properties.  Notwithstanding  that any Mortgaged  Property
may be acquired as part of the Trust Fund through  foreclosure,  deed in lieu of
foreclosure  or  otherwise,  the  related  Mortgage  Loan will be  treated,  for
purposes of (i) determining  distributions on the Certificates,  (ii) allocating
Realized  Losses and  Additional  Trust Fund Expenses to the  Certificates,  and
(iii)  determining the amount of Trustee Fees and Master  Servicing Fees payable
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,  as having remained outstanding until
such REO Property is liquidated. In connection therewith, operating revenues and
other proceeds  derived from such REO Property (net of related  operating costs)
will be  "applied"  by the Master  Servicer  as  principal,  interest  and other
amounts  that  would  have been  "due" on such  Mortgage  Loan,  and the  Master
Servicer or the Trustee will be required to make P&I Advances in respect of such
Mortgage  Loan, in all cases as if such Mortgage Loan had remained  outstanding.
References  to  "Mortgage  Loan"  or  "Mortgage  Loans"  in the  definitions  of
"Principal Distribution Amount" and "Weighted Average Net Mortgage Rate" include
any Mortgage Loan as to which the related  Mortgaged  Property has become an REO
Property (an "REO Loan").

     Allocation of Prepayment  Premiums.  In the event a borrower is required to
pay any Prepayment Premium,  the amount of such payments actually collected will
be distributed in respect of the REMIC Regular Certificates, as set forth below.
A "Prepayment  Premium" is any Yield Maintenance  Charge or any other fees (each
such  other  fee,  a  "Percentage  Premium")  paid or  payable,  as the  context
requires,  as a result of a prepayment of principal on a Mortgage Loan which are
calculated  based upon a specified  percentage  (which may decline over time) of
the amount prepaid. "Yield Maintenance Charges" are payments paid or payable, as
the  context  requires,  on a  Mortgage  Loan as a  result  of a  prepayment  of
principal  not  otherwise  due  thereon,  which  has been  calculated  (based on
Scheduled  Payments  on such  Mortgage  Loan) to  compensate  the  holder of the
Mortgage Loan for reinvestment losses based on the aggregate payment of interest
which  would have  accrued on such  Mortgage  Loan on each  subsequent  due date
through the maturity  date of such Mortgage  Loan,  at a rate  calculated as the
difference  between the Mortgage Rate on such  Mortgage Loan and the  applicable
U.S.   Treasury   rate  in  effect  on  the  date  of   prepayment   (the  "Rate
Differential").

     On each Distribution  Date, any Prepayment  Premium collected on a Mortgage
Loan during the related  Collection  Period will be distributed as follows:  the
holders of each Class of the  Certificates  then  entitled to  distributions  of
principal with respect to such Mortgage Loan on such  Distribution  Date will be
entitled to an amount equal to the amount of such Prepayment Premium, multiplied
by (a) a fraction  (which in no event may be greater than one) the  numerator of
which is equal to the excess,  if any, of the Pass-Through Rate of such Class of
Certificates,  over the  relevant  Discount  Rate (as  defined  below),  and the
denominator of which is equal to the excess, if any, of the Mortgage Rate of the
prepaid Mortgage Loan, over the relevant Discount Rate, and (b) a fraction,  the
numerator  of which is equal to the amount of  principal  distributable  on such
Class of Certificates on such Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is
the Principal  Distribution  Amount for such Distribution Date. If there is more
than one Class of Certificates  entitled to  distributions  of such principal on
any particular Distribution Date on which a Prepayment Premium is distributable,
the aggregate amount of such Prepayment Premium will be allocated among all such
Classes up to,  and on a pro rata basis in  accordance  with,  their  respective
entitlements thereto in accordance with, the foregoing sentence. The portion, if
any, of the Prepayment  Premium remaining after any such payments to the holders
of  such  Certificates  will be  distributed  to the  holders  of the  Class  IO
Certificates.

     The "Discount Rate" applicable to any Class of Offered Certificates will be
equal to the yield (when compounded  monthly) on the non-callable  U.S. Treasury
issue (primary  issue) with a maturity date closest to the maturity date for the
prepaid Mortgage Loan. In the event that there are two such U.S. Treasury issues
(a) with the same coupon,  the issue with the lower yield will be utilized,  and
(b) with  maturity  dates  equally  close to the  maturity  date for the prepaid
Mortgage Loan, the issue with the earlier maturity date will be utilized.

     The  Depositor  makes no  representation  as to the  enforceability  of the
provision of any Mortgage Note requiring the payment of a Prepayment Premium, or
of the  collectability  of  any  Prepayment  Premium.  See  "DESCRIPTION  OF THE
MORTGAGE  POOL--Certain  Terms and Conditions of the Mortgage  Loans--Prepayment
Provisions" herein.

SUBORDINATION; ALLOCATION OF LOSSES AND CERTAIN EXPENSES

     The  rights  of  holders  of the  Class  B,  Class C,  Class D and  Class E
Certificates  and each  Class of the  Private  Certificates  (collectively,  the
"Subordinate  Certificates")  to receive  distributions of amounts  collected or
advanced on the Mortgage  Loans will be  subordinated,  to the extent  described
herein,  to the  rights  of  holders  of the Class  A-1,  Class A-2 and Class IO
Certificates (collectively, the "Senior Certificates") and each other such Class
of Subordinate



                                      S-62
<PAGE>


Certificates,  if any,  with an earlier  alphabetical  Class  designation.  This
subordination  is intended to enhance the  likelihood  of timely  receipt by the
holders  of  the  Senior  Certificates  of  the  full  amount  of  Distributable
Certificate  Interest payable in respect of such Classes of Certificates on each
Distribution  Date, and the ultimate receipt by the holders of the Class A-1 and
Class A-2 Certificates of principal in an amount equal to the entire  respective
Certificate  Balance  of  such  Classes  of  Certificates.   Similarly,  but  to
decreasing  degrees,   this  subordination  is  also  intended  to  enhance  the
likelihood  of timely  receipt  by the  holders of the Class B, the Class C, the
Class D and  the  Class E  Certificates  of the  full  amount  of  Distributable
Certificate  Interest  payable in respect of each such Class of  Certificates on
each  Distribution  Date,  and the ultimate  receipt by the holders of each such
Class of  Certificates  of  principal  equal to the entire  related  Certificate
Balance.  The protection  afforded to the holders of the Class E Certificates by
means of the  subordination of the Private  Certificates,  to the holders of the
Class D  Certificates  by  means  of the  subordination  of the  Class E and the
Private Certificates, to the holders of the Class C Certificates by means of the
subordination of the Class D, the Class E and the Private  Certificates,  to the
holders of the Class B Certificates by means of the  subordination  of the Class
C, the Class D, the Class E and the Private Certificates,  and to the holders of
the  Senior  Certificates  by  means  of the  subordination  of the  Subordinate
Certificates,  will be  accomplished  by (i) the  application  of the  Available
Distribution  Amount on each  Distribution  Date in accordance with the order of
priority   described  under   "--Distributions--Application   of  the  Available
Distribution  Amount"  above and (ii) the  allocation  of  Realized  Losses  and
Additional  Trust Fund Expenses as described  below.  The Class A-2 Certificates
will receive principal payments only after the Certificate  Balance of the Class
A-1 Certificates has been reduced to zero. However, the Class A-1, Class A-2 and
Class IO Certificates will bear shortfalls in collections and losses incurred in
respect of the Mortgage  Loans pro rata. No other form of credit support will be
available for the benefit of the holders of the Offered Certificates.

     On each Distribution Date,  following all distributions on the Certificates
to be made on such date,  the  aggregate of all Realized  Losses and  Additional
Trust Fund Expenses (to the extent such  Additional  Trust Fund Expenses are not
covered by interest  received  on the  Mortgage  Loans) that have been  incurred
since the Cut-off Date through the end of the related Collection Period and that
have not previously  been allocated as described  below will be allocated  among
the respective Classes of Sequential Pay Certificates (in each case in reduction
of their respective  Certificate Balances) as follows, but in the aggregate only
to  the  extent  that  the  aggregate  Certificate  Balance  of all  Classes  of
Sequential Pay  Certificates  remaining  outstanding  after giving effect to the
distributions on such  Distribution  Date exceeds the aggregate Stated Principal
Balance of the Mortgage Pool that will be outstanding immediately following such
Distribution  Date:  first,  to the Class K  Certificates,  until the  remaining
Certificate Balance of such Class of Certificates is reduced to zero; second, to
the Class J Certificates,  until the remaining Certificate Balance of such Class
of  Certificates is reduced to zero;  third, to the Class H Certificates,  until
the remaining  Certificate  Balance of such Class of  Certificates is reduced to
zero;  fourth,  to the Class G  Certificates,  until the  remaining  Certificate
Balance of such Class of Certificates is reduced to zero;  fifth, to the Class F
Certificates,   until  the  remaining  Certificate  Balance  of  such  Class  of
Certificates is reduced to zero;  sixth, to the Class E Certificates,  until the
remaining  Certificate Balance of such Class of Certificates is reduced to zero;
seventh, to the Class D Certificates, until the remaining Certificate Balance of
such  Class  of  Certificates  is  reduced  to  zero;  eighth,  to the  Class  C
Certificates,   until  the  remaining  Certificate  Balance  of  such  Class  of
Certificates  is reduced to zero; and ninth to the Class B  Certificates,  until
the remaining  Certificate  Balance of such Class of  Certificates is reduced to
zero. Thereafter,  additional Realized Losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses
will be allocated to the Class A-1 Certificates and the Class A-2  Certificates,
pro rata, in proportion to their  outstanding  Certificate  Balances,  until the
remaining  Certificate  Balances of such Classes of Certificates  are reduced to
zero.

     Any Realized Loss or Additional  Trust Fund Expense  allocated in reduction
of the  Certificate  Balance of any Class of Sequential  Pay  Certificates  will
result in a  corresponding  reduction  in the  notional  amount for the  related
Component.

     "Realized  Losses" are losses  arising  from the  inability  to collect all
amounts due and owing under any defaulted Mortgage Loan,  including by reason of
the fraud or  bankruptcy  of the  borrower  or a  casualty  of any nature at the
related Mortgaged Property, to the extent not covered by insurance. The Realized
Loss in respect of a liquidated  Mortgage  Loan (or related REO  Property) is an
amount generally equal to the excess,  if any, of (a) the outstanding  principal
balance of such Mortgage Loan as of the date of  liquidation,  together with (i)
all accrued and unpaid interest  thereon at the related  Mortgage Rate in effect
from time to time to but not including the Due Date in the Collection  Period in
which the liquidation occurred and (ii) certain related  unreimbursed  servicing
expenses,  over  (b) the  aggregate  amount  of  Liquidation  Proceeds,  if any,
recovered in connection with such liquidation. If any portion of the



                                      S-63
<PAGE>


debt due  under a  Mortgage  Loan is  forgiven,  whether  in  connection  with a
modification,  waiver or amendment  granted or agreed to by the Special Servicer
or in connection with the bankruptcy or similar proceeding involving the related
borrower, the amount so forgiven also will be treated as a Realized Loss.

     "Additional  Trust Fund  Expenses"  include,  among other  things,  (i) any
Special Servicing Fees or Principal  Recovery Fees paid to the Special Servicer,
(ii) any interest paid to the Master  Servicer,  the Special Servicer and/or the
Trustee  in  respect  of   unreimbursed   Advances  and  (iii)  any  of  certain
unanticipated, non-Mortgage Loan specific expenses of the Trust Fund, including,
but not limited to, certain  reimbursements and  indemnifications to the Trustee
of the type  described  under  "DESCRIPTION  OF THE POOLING  AGREEMENTS--Certain
Matters Regarding the Trustee" in the Prospectus,  certain reimbursements to the
Master  Servicer,  the Special  Servicer and the Depositor of the type described
under  "DESCRIPTION  OF THE POOLING  AGREEMENTS--Certain  Matters  Regarding the
Master  Servicer and the  Depositor"  in the  Prospectus  (the Special  Servicer
having the same rights to indemnity and  reimbursement  as described  thereunder
with  respect to the Master  Servicer),  and  certain  federal,  state and local
taxes, and certain  tax-related  expenses,  payable from the assets of the Trust
Fund and described under "MATERIAL  FEDERAL INCOME TAX  CONSEQUENCES--Prohibited
Transactions  Tax and Other  Taxes" in the  Prospectus  and the costs of certain
opinions of counsel  required to be obtained in connection with the servicing of
the Mortgage Loans and  administration of the Trust Fund.  Additional Trust Fund
Expenses will reduce amounts payable to  Certificateholders  and, subject to the
distribution  priorities  described  above,  may result in a loss on one or more
Classes of Offered Certificates. 

P&I ADVANCES

     On or about each Distribution  Date, the Master Servicer will be obligated,
subject to the recoverability  determination described in the next paragraph, to
make advances  (each,  a "P&I  Advance") out of its own funds or, subject to the
replacement  thereof as provided in the Pooling and  Servicing  Agreement,  from
funds held in the Certificate Account that are not required to be distributed to
Certificateholders  on such  Distribution  Date,  in an amount that is generally
equal to the aggregate of all Scheduled  Payments (other than Balloon  Payments)
and any Assumed Scheduled Payments, net of related Master Servicing Fees and, if
any,  Principal Recovery Fees, due or deemed due, as the case may be, in respect
of the Mortgage Loans during the related  Collection Period, in each case to the
extent  such  amount  was not paid by or on behalf of the  related  borrower  or
otherwise  collected  as of the close of business  on the related  Determination
Date. The Master  Servicer's  obligations to make P&I Advances in respect of any
Mortgage  Loan  will  continue  until  liquidation  of  such  Mortgage  Loan  or
disposition of any REO Property  acquired in respect  thereof.  However,  if the
Periodic  Payment on any  Mortgage  Loan has been reduced in  connection  with a
bankruptcy or similar proceeding or a modification,  waiver or amendment granted
or agreed to by the Special  Servicer,  the Master  Servicer will be required to
advance only the amount of the reduced  Periodic  Payment (net of related Master
Servicing  Fees and, if any,  Principal  Recovery Fees) in respect of subsequent
delinquencies.  In addition,  if it is  determined  that an Appraisal  Reduction
Amount (as defined below) exists with respect to any Required Appraisal Loan (as
defined  below),  then,  with  respect  to  the  Distribution  Date  immediately
following  the date of such  determination  and with respect to each  subsequent
Distribution  Date for so long as such Appraisal  Reduction  Amount exists,  the
Master  Servicer  will be required in the event of subsequent  delinquencies  to
advance in respect of such  Mortgage Loan only an amount equal to the product of
(i) the amount of the P&I  Advance  that would  otherwise  be  required  without
regard to this sentence,  multiplied by (ii) a fraction,  the numerator of which
is equal to the Stated  Principal  Balance of such  Mortgage  Loan,  net of such
Appraisal  Reduction Amount, and the denominator of which is equal to the Stated
Principal  Balance of such Mortgage  Loan.  Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling
and  Servicing  Agreement,  if the Master  Servicer  fails to make a P&I Advance
required  to be made,  the  Trustee  shall  then be  required  to make  such P&I
Advance.

     The Master  Servicer (or the  Trustee)  will be entitled to recover any P&I
Advance  made out of its own funds from any amounts  collected in respect of the
Mortgage  Loan (net of related  Servicing  Fees with respect to  collections  of
interest and net of related Principal  Recovery Fees with respect to collections
of  principal)  as to which such P&I Advance was made,  whether such amounts are
collected in the form of late payments, Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds
or any other  recovery of the related  Mortgage  Loan or REO Property  ("Related
Proceeds").  Neither the Master  Servicer  nor the Trustee  will be obligated to
make any P&I  Advance  that it  determines  in  accordance  with  the  servicing
standards  described  herein,  would, if made, not be recoverable out of Related
Proceeds (a  "Nonrecoverable  P&I  Advance"),  and the Master  Servicer  (or the
Trustee)  will be  entitled  to recover,  from  general  funds on deposit in the
Certificate  Account,  any P&I  Advance  made that it later  determines  to be a
Nonrecoverable P&I Advance.  See "DESCRIPTION OF THE  CERTIFICATES--Advances  in
Respect of Delinquencies" and

"DESCRIPTION OF THE POOLING AGREEMENTS--Certificate  Account" in the Prospectus.
For so long as the  Trustee  has  not  succeeded  to the  duties  of the  Master
Servicer  pursuant  to the terms of the  Pooling and  Servicing  Agreement,  the
Trustee may  conclusively  rely upon the Master  Servicer's  determination  of a
Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. See "DESCRIPTION OF THE POOLING AGREEMENT--Events of
Default" in the Prospectus.

     In  connection  with the recovery by the Master  Servicer or the Trustee of
any P&I Advance made by it or the recovery by the Master  Servicer,  the Special
Servicer or the Trustee of any  reimbursable  servicing  expense  incurred by it
(each such P&I Advance or  expense,  an  "Advance"),  the Master  Servicer,  the
Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, will be entitled to be paid, out
of any amounts then on deposit in the Certificate  Account,  interest compounded
annually  at a per annum  rate (the  "Reimbursement  Rate")  equal to the "prime
rate" published in the "Money Rates" section of The Wall Street Journal, as such
"prime rate" may change from time to time, accrued on the amount of such Advance
from the date made to but not including the date of reimbursement. To the extent
not offset or covered by amounts otherwise payable on the Private  Certificates,
interest  accrued on outstanding  Advances will result in a reduction in amounts
payable on the  Offered  Certificates,  subject to the  distribution  priorities
described herein. 

APPRAISAL REDUCTIONS

     Upon the earliest of the date (each such date, a "Required Appraisal Date")
that (1) any  Mortgage  Loan is sixty  (60) days  delinquent  in  respect of any
Periodic Payment,  (2) any REO Property is acquired on behalf of the Trust Fund,
(3) any Mortgage  Loan has been  modified by the Special  Servicer to reduce the
amount of any Periodic Payment,  other than a Balloon Payment, (4) a receiver is
appointed  and  continues  in such  capacity in respect of a Mortgaged  Property
securing any Mortgage  Loan, (5) a borrower with respect to any Mortgage Loan is
subject to any  bankruptcy  proceeding or (6) a Balloon  Payment with respect to
any Mortgage  Loan is due and has not been paid on its  scheduled  maturity date
(each such Mortgage Loan,  including any REO Loan, a "Required Appraisal Loan"),
the  Special  Servicer  will  be  required  to  obtain  (within  60  days of the
applicable  Required  Appraisal  Date) an  appraisal  of the  related  Mortgaged
Property  prepared in accordance  with 12 CFR 225.62 and conducted in accordance
with the standards of the Appraisal Institute by a Qualified  Appraiser,  unless
such an appraisal had been previously obtained within the prior twelve months. A
"Qualified  Appraiser"  is an  independent  appraiser,  selected  by the Special
Servicer,  that is a member in good standing of the Appraisal Institute and that
is, if the state in which the subject Mortgaged Property is located certifies or
licenses appraisers,  certified or licensed in such state, and in each such case
who has a minimum of five years  experience  in the  subject  property  type and
market.  The cost of such appraisal  will be an Advance by the Master  Servicer,
subject to the Master Servicer's right to be reimbursed  therefor out of related
proceeds or, if not reimbursable  therefrom,  out of general funds on deposit in
the  Certificate  Account with interest  thereon at the  Reimbursement  Rate and
subject to the Master Servicer's  determination that such Advance would not be a
nonrecoverable  Advance. As a result of any such appraisal, it may be determined
that an "Appraisal Reduction Amount" exists with respect to the related Required
Appraisal  Loan, such  determination  to be made upon the later of 30 days after
the Required Appraisal Date if no new appraisal is required or upon receipt of a
new appraisal.  The Appraisal  Reduction Amount for any Required  Appraisal Loan
will equal the excess, if any, of (a) the sum of, as of the  Determination  Date
immediately  succeeding  the date on which the  appraisal is  obtained,  (i) the
Stated Principal Balance of such Required Appraisal Loan, (ii) to the extent not
previously  advanced by or on behalf of the Master Servicer or the Trustee,  all
unpaid interest on the Required  Appraisal Loan through the most recent Due Date
prior to such  Determination  Date at a per annum rate equal to the  related Net
Mortgage  Rate,  (iii) all accrued but unpaid  Servicing Fees and any Additional
Trust Fund Expenses in respect of such Required Appraisal Loan, (iv) all related
unreimbursed  Advances made by or on behalf of the Master Servicer,  the Special
Servicer and the Trustee with respect to such  Required  Appraisal  Loan and (v)
all  currently  due and unpaid  real  estate  taxes and  assessments,  insurance
premiums,  and, if applicable,  ground rents in respect of the related Mortgaged
Property (net of any amount escrowed therefor),  over (b) an amount equal to 90%
of the  appraised  value  (net of any  prior  liens)  of the  related  Mortgaged
Property as determined by such appraisal.

     Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  if any Required Appraisal Loan as to which
an  Appraisal  Reduction  Amount has been  established  in  accordance  with the
preceding  paragraph  becomes a  Corrected  Mortgage  Loan,  then the  Appraisal
Reduction Amount shall be deemed to be zero, subject to such Mortgage Loan again
becoming subject to the appraisal requirement described above;  provided,  that,
in the case of any Required  Appraisal  Loan that has been modified as described
in the immediately  preceding paragraph,  the Appraisal Reduction Amount will be
deemed  to exist  for so long as the terms of the  modification  are in  effect.

REPORTS TO CERTIFICATEHOLDERS; AVAILABLE INFORMATION

     On each Distribution Date, based solely on information  provided in monthly
reports  prepared by the Master Servicer and the Special  Servicer and delivered
to the Trustee, the Trustee will be required to provide or make available to (i)
each holder of an Offered Certificate, (ii) the initial beneficial owners of the
Offered  Certificates  and (iii)  subsequent  beneficial  owners of the  Offered
Certificates upon their request to the Trustee a statement (a "Distribution Date
Statement"),  providing  various items of information  relating to distributions
made on such date with respect to the relevant Class and a statement, similar in
content to the form of Annex C, setting  forth the recent status of the Mortgage
Pool based on information  provided to it by the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer. Although the form of the Distribution Date Statement may change at the
discretion of the Trustee,  the content will be consistent with the requirements
of the Pooling and Servicing  Agreement.  For a more detailed  discussion of the
particular  items  of  information  to be  provided  in each  Distribution  Date
Statement,  as well as a discussion of certain annual information  reports to be
furnished to persons who at any time during the prior calendar year were holders
of the Offered Certificates,  see "DESCRIPTION OF THE  CERTIFICATES--Reports  to
Certificateholders"  in the Prospectus.  It is anticipated that a portion of the
Distribution  Date Statement may include certain  operating  information for the
respective    Mortgaged    Properties.    See   "SERVICING   OF   THE   MORTGAGE
LOANS--Inspections;   Collection   of  Operating   Information"   herein.   Such
information will generally be obtained from the related  borrowers,  and neither
the Master  Servicer,  the  Special  Servicer  nor the  Trustee  will assume any
responsibility therefor.

     The Trustee will make available each month,  to any interested  party,  the
Distribution  Date  Statement via the  Trustee's  Internet  Website,  electronic
bulletin board and  fax-on-demand  service.  In addition,  the Trustee will also
make certain  Mortgage Loan information as presented in the CSSA loan setup file
and CSSA loan periodic update file formats  available to any  Certificateholder,
any  Certificate  Owner,  the Rating  Agencies,  the  parties to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement or any other interested party via the Trustee's Website. The
Trustee's  Website  will  be  located  at   "www.securitieslink.net/cmbs".   The
Trustee's  electronic  bulletin board may be accessed by calling (301) 815-6620,
and its  fax-on-demand  service may be accessed by calling (301)  815-6610.  For
assistance with regard to the above-mentioned services, investors may call (301)
815-6600.  Certain additional  information  regarding the Mortgage Loans will be
available  on  the  Master  Servicer's  Website  at  "www.firstunion.com"  under
"Capital   Markets".   Such  information   should  be  available  on  the  first
Distribution Date and will be updated periodically thereafter.

     In addition,  pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,  the Trustee
will  make  available,  as a  convenience  for  interested  parties  (and not in
furtherance of the  distribution of the Prospectus or the Prospectus  Supplement
under the securities laws), the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,  the Prospectus
and this Prospectus  Supplement via the Trustee's Website. The Trustee will make
no  representations  or  warranties as to the accuracy or  completeness  of such
documents and will assume no responsibility therefor.

     In  connection  with  providing  access  to the  Trustee's  or  the  Master
Servicer's  Website or  electronic  bulletin  board,  the  Trustee or the Master
Servicer,  as the case may be, may require  registration and the acceptance of a
disclaimer.  Neither the Trustee nor the Master Servicer shall be liable for the
dissemination  of  information  in  accordance  with the Pooling  and  Servicing
Agreement.

     Except  as  described  above,   until  such  time  as  Definitive   Offered
Certificates  are  issued in respect  of a Class of  Offered  Certificates,  the
foregoing  information will be available to the related  Certificate Owners only
to the extent it is  forwarded  by or  otherwise  available  through DTC and its
Participants.  The manner in which notices and other communications are conveyed
by DTC to Participants,  and by Participants to the Certificate  Owners, will be
governed by  arrangements  among them,  subject to any  statutory or  regulatory
requirements  as may be in effect from time to time.  The Master  Servicer,  the
Trustee and the Depositor may recognize as owner of a Certificate  the person in
whose  name the  Certificate  is  registered  on the  books and  records  of the
Trustee,  as registrar in respect of the  Certificates  (in such  capacity,  the
"Certificate Registrar").

     The  Pooling  and  Servicing  Agreement  requires  that  the  Trustee  make
available  at its  offices,  during  normal  business  hours,  for review by any
Certificate  Owner owning an interest in a Certificate or any person  identified
to the Trustee as a  prospective  transferee  of such an interest,  originals or
copies of,  among  other  things,  the  following  items:  (a) the  Pooling  and
Servicing  Agreement  and any  amendments  thereto,  (b) all  Distribution  Date
Statements  delivered to holders of the relevant  Class of Offered  Certificates
since the Closing Date, (c) all officer's  certificates delivered to the Trustee
since  the  Closing  Date  as  described  under   "DESCRIPTION  OF  THE  POOLING
AGREEMENTS

- --Evidence as to Compliance" in the  Prospectus,  (d) all  accountants'  reports
delivered to the Trustee since the Closing Date as described under  "DESCRIPTION
OF THE POOLING AGREEMENTS--Evidence as to Compliance" in the Prospectus, (e) the
most recent property  inspection  report prepared by or on behalf of the Special
Servicer in respect of each Mortgaged Property and delivered to the Trustee, (f)
the most recent Mortgaged Property annual operating statements and rent roll, if
any,  collected  by or on behalf of the Special  Servicer  and  delivered to the
Trustee, (g) any and all modifications, waivers and amendments of the terms of a
Mortgage Loan entered into by the Special  Servicer and delivered to the Trustee
and (h) any and all officers'  certificates and other evidence  delivered to the
Trustee to support the Master Servicer's (or the Trustee's)  determination  that
any Advance was or, if made,  would not be  recoverable  from related  proceeds.
Copies of any and all of the foregoing  items will be available from the Trustee
upon request; however, the Trustee will be permitted to require payment of a sum
sufficient  to cover  the  reasonable  costs  and  expenses  of  providing  such
information to the  Certificate  Owners,  including,  without  limitation,  copy
charges and reasonable fees for employee time and for space.

     The Trustee will make available, upon reasonable advance written notice and
at the expense of the requesting  party,  copies of the items referred to in the
prior paragraph that are maintained thereby, to Certificateholders,  Certificate
Owners  and  prospective  purchasers  of  Certificates  and  interests  therein;
provided that the Trustee may require (a) in the case of a Certificate  Owner, a
written  confirmation  executed by the  requesting  person or entity,  in a form
reasonably  acceptable to the Trustee,  generally to the effect that such person
or entity is a beneficial owner of any Class of Certificates,  is requesting the
information solely for use in evaluating such person's or entity's investment in
such Certificates and will otherwise keep such information  confidential and (b)
in the case of a prospective purchaser,  confirmation executed by the requesting
person or entity, in a form reasonably  acceptable to the Trustee,  generally to
the effect that such person or entity is a prospective purchaser of any Class of
Certificates or an interest  therein,  is requesting the information  solely for
use in evaluating a possible  investment in such Certificates and will otherwise
keep such  information  confidential.  Certificateholders,  by the acceptance of
their  Certificates,  will be  deemed to have  agreed  to keep such  information
confidential.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  however,  no  Certificateholder,
Certificate Owner or prospective purchaser will be required to keep confidential
any information received from the Trustee as described above that has previously
been made available via the Trustee's  Internet  Website or has previously  been
filed with the Securities and Exchange  Commission (the "SEC"),  and the Trustee
will not be required to obtain  either of the  confirmations  referred to in the
second preceding  sentence in connection with providing any information that has
previously  been  made  available  via the  Trustee's  Internet  Website  or has
previously been filed with the SEC.

     Upon written request of any  Certificateholder  of record made for purposes
of  communicating  with other  Certificateholders  with  respect to their rights
under the  Pooling and  Servicing  Agreement,  the  Certificate  Registrar  will
furnish such Certificateholder with a list of the other  Certificateholders then
of record.

     The Master Servicer,  the Special Servicer,  the Trustee, the Depositor and
the Certificate Registrar are required to recognize as  Certificateholders  only
those persons in whose names the  Certificates  are  registered on the books and
records of the Certificate Registrar. 

VOTING RIGHTS

     At all times during the term of the Pooling and Servicing  Agreement,  100%
of the  voting  rights  for  the  Certificates  (the  "Voting  Rights")  will be
allocated  among the  respective  Classes  of  Sequential  Pay  Certificates  in
proportion to the Certificate Balances of those Classes. Voting Rights allocated
to  a   Class   of   Certificates   will  be   allocated   among   the   related
Certificateholders  in  proportion  to the  percentage  interests  in such Class
evidenced  by  their  respective  Certificates.  The  Class  A-1 and  Class  A-2
Certificates will be treated as one Class for determining the Controlling Class.
See "DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES--Voting Rights" in the Prospectus.

TERMINATION

     The  obligations  created  by the  Pooling  and  Servicing  Agreement  will
terminate upon the final  distribution  to the  Certificateholders,  which shall
follow the earlier of (i) the final  payment (or advance in respect  thereof) or
other  liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan or REO Property subject thereto and
(ii) the  purchase of all of the  Mortgage  Loans and all of the REO  Properties
remaining in the Trust Fund,  if any, by the  Depositor or 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 Trustee
or other  registrar  for the  Certificates  or at such other  location as may be
specified in such notice of termination.



                                      S-67
<PAGE>


     Any such  purchase  by the  Master  Servicer  or the  Depositor  of all the
Mortgage  Loans and all of the REO  Properties,  if any,  remaining in the Trust
Fund is required to be made at a price equal to (i) the aggregate Purchase Price
of all the  Mortgage  Loans  (other than REO Loans)  then  included in the Trust
Fund, plus (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,  minus (iii) if the  purchaser is the Master  Servicer
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  Offered  Certificates,  but the  right  of the  Master
Servicer  or  the  Depositor  to  effect  such  termination  is  subject  to the
requirement  that the then aggregate  Stated  Principal  Balance of the Mortgage
Pool be less than 1% of the Initial Pool Balance.

     The  purchase  price paid in  connection  with the purchase of all Mortgage
Loans and REO Properties  remaining in the Trust Fund,  exclusive of any portion
thereof  payable  or  reimbursable  (as  if  such  purchase  price   constituted
Liquidation  Proceeds)  to any person  other than the  Certificateholders,  will
constitute part of the Available  Distribution Amount for the final Distribution
Date. The Available  Distribution Amount for the final Distribution Date will be
distributed   by   the   Trustee    generally   as   described    herein   under
"--Distributions--Application of the Available Distribution Amount," except that
the  distributions  of principal  on any Class of  Sequential  Pay  Certificates
described   thereunder  will  be  made,  subject  to  available  funds  and  the
distribution  priorities described thereunder,  in an amount equal to the entire
Certificate Balance of such Class remaining outstanding. 

THE TRUSTEE

     Norwest Bank Minnesota,  National Association  ("Norwest Bank") will act as
Trustee pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Norwest Bank, a direct,
wholly  owned  subsidiary  of  Norwest   Corporation,   is  a  national  banking
association  originally  chartered  in 1872 and is  engaged  in a wide  range of
activities  typical of a  national  bank.  Norwest  Bank's  principal  office is
located  at  Norwest  Center,  Sixth  and  Marquette,   Minneapolis,   Minnesota
55479-0113.  Certificate  transfer  services  are  conducted  at Norwest  Bank's
offices  in  Minneapolis.  Norwest  Bank  otherwise  conducts  its  trustee  and
securities  administration  services at its offices in Columbia,  Maryland.  Its
address there is 11000 Broken Land Parkway,  Columbia,  Maryland 21044-3562.  In
addition,  Norwest  Bank  maintains a trust  office in New York located at 3 New
York Plaza,  New York, New York 10004.  Certificateholders  and other interested
parties  should  direct their  inquiries to the New York office.  The  telephone
number  is (212)  509-7900.  See  "DESCRIPTION  OF THE  POOLING  AGREEMENTS--The
Trustee,"  "--Duties of the Trustee,"  "--Certain Matters Regarding the Trustee"
and  "--Resignation   and  Removal  of  the  Trustee"  in  the  Prospectus.   As
compensation  for its  services,  the Trustee will be entitled to receive,  from
general  funds on deposit in the  Certificate  Account,  the  Trustee  Fee.  The
"Trustee Fee" for each  Distribution  Date will be equal to  one-twelfth  of the
product of (a) the Trustee  Fee Rate and (b) the  aggregate  of the  Certificate
Balances  of  the  Sequential  Pay  Certificates   immediately   prior  to  such
Distribution  Date.  The  "Trustee  Fee Rate"  will be a per annum rate equal to
0.004%.

     The  Trustee  will  also  have   certain   duties  with  respect  to  REMIC
administration  (in such  capacity,  the "REMIC  Administrator").  See "MATERIAL
FEDERAL  INCOME  TAX  CONSEQUENCES--REMICs--Reporting  and Other  Administrative
Matters" and "DESCRIPTION OF THE POOLING  AGREEMENTS--Certain  Matters Regarding
the Master  Servicer,  the Special  Servicer,  the REMIC  Administrator  and the
Sponsor,"  "--Events  of Default"  and  "--Rights  Upon Event of Default" in the
Prospectus.

                        YIELD AND MATURITY CONSIDERATIONS

YIELD CONSIDERATIONS

     General.  The yield on any Offered  Certificate will depend on the price at
which such  Certificate  is purchased  by an investor  and the rate,  timing and
amount of  distributions  on such  Certificate.  The rate,  timing and amount of
distributions  on any Offered  Certificate  will in turn depend on,  among other
things, (i) the Pass-Through Rate for such Certificate, (ii) the rate and timing
of principal  payments  (including  principal  prepayments)  and other principal
collections on the Mortgage Loans and the extent to which such amounts are to be
applied  in  reduction  of the  Certificate  Balance or  notional  amount of the
related  Class,  (iii) the rate,  timing and  severity  of  Realized  Losses and
Additional  Trust Fund Expenses and the extent to which such losses and expenses
are allocable in reduction of the Certificate  Balance or notional amount of the
related Class and (iv) the timing and severity of any Net  Aggregate  Prepayment
Interest  Shortfalls  and the extent to which such  shortfalls  are allocable in
reduction  of the  Distributable  Certificate  Interest  payable on the  related
Class.



                                      S-68
<PAGE>


     Rate and Timing of Principal Payment.  The yield to holders of the Class IO
Certificates  will be  extremely  sensitive  to, and the yield to holders of any
other Offered  Certificates  purchased at a discount or premium will be affected
by,  the  rate  and  timing  of  principal  payments  made in  reduction  of the
Certificate  Balance  of such  Certificates  (or,  in the  case of the  Class IO
Certificates,  in  reduction  of the  notional  amount  of one  or  more  of the
Components thereof). As described herein, the Principal  Distribution Amount for
each Distribution  Date will be distributable  first in respect of the Class A-1
Certificates until the Certificate  Balance thereof is reduced to zero, and will
thereafter be distributable  entirely in respect of the Class A-2  Certificates,
the Class B Certificates, the Class C Certificates, the Class D Certificates and
the Class E  Certificates,  in that  order,  in each case until the  Certificate
Balance of such Class of  Certificates  is reduced to zero. Any reduction of the
Certificate Balance of any Class of Sequential Pay Certificates will result in a
corresponding  reduction  in  the  notional  amount  of the  related  Component.
Consequently,  the rate and timing of principal payments that are distributed or
otherwise  result in reduction of the Certificate  Balance or notional amount of
each  Class of Offered  Certificates  will be  directly  related to the rate and
timing of principal  payments on or in respect of the Mortgage Loans, which will
in turn be affected by the amortization  schedules  thereof,  the dates on which
Balloon  Payments are due and the rate and timing of principal  prepayments  and
other unscheduled  collections thereon (including for this purpose,  collections
made  in  connection  with  liquidations  of  Mortgage  Loans  due to  defaults,
casualties or condemnations affecting the Mortgaged Properties,  or purchases of
Mortgage Loans out of the Trust Fund).  Prepayments and, assuming the respective
stated maturity dates therefor have not occurred,  liquidations and purchases of
the Mortgage Loans,  will result in  distributions  on the Offered  Certificates
(other  than the Class IO  Certificates)  of  amounts  that would  otherwise  be
distributed  over the  remaining  terms of the Mortgage  Loans.  Defaults on the
Mortgage Loans,  particularly at or near their stated maturity dates, may result
in  significant  delays in payments of  principal  on the  Mortgage  Loans (and,
accordingly,  on the Offered  Certificates that are Sequential Pay Certificates)
while work-outs are negotiated or foreclosures are completed.  See "SERVICING OF
THE  MORTGAGE   LOANS--Modifications,   Waivers  and   Amendments"   herein  and
"DESCRIPTION  OF THE POOLING  AGREEMENTS--Realization  Upon  Defaulted  Mortgage
Loans"  and  "CERTAIN  LEGAL  ASPECTS  OF  MORTGAGE  LOANS--Foreclosure"  in the
Prospectus.

     The  extent  to  which  the  yield to  maturity  of any  Class  of  Offered
Certificates may vary from the anticipated  yield will depend upon the degree to
which such  Certificates are purchased at a discount or premium and when, and to
what degree, payments of principal on the Mortgage Loans in turn are distributed
or otherwise  result in reduction of the Certificate  Balance or notional amount
of such  Certificates.  An investor should consider,  in the case of any Offered
Certificate  purchased  at a discount,  the risk that a slower than  anticipated
rate of principal payments on the Mortgage Loans could result in an actual yield
to such investor that is lower than the anticipated  yield and, in the case of a
Class IO  Certificate or any other Offered  Certificate  purchased at a premium,
the risk that a faster than anticipated rate of principal  payments could result
in an actual yield to such investor that is lower than the anticipated yield. In
general, the earlier a payment of principal on the Mortgage Loans is distributed
or otherwise  results in reduction of the  Certificate  Balance (or the notional
amount of a  Component)  of an Offered  Certificate  purchased  at a discount or
premium, the greater will be the effect on an investor's yield to maturity. As a
result,  the effect on an investor's yield of principal payments on the Mortgage
Loans  occurring  at a rate higher (or lower) than the rate  anticipated  by the
investor during any particular  period would not be fully offset by a subsequent
like reduction (or increase) in the rate of such principal  payments.  Investors
in the Class IO Certificates should fully consider the risk that a rapid rate of
principal  payments on the  Mortgage  Loans could  result in the failure of such
investors to recoup  their  initial  investments.  Because the rate of principal
payments on the  Mortgage  Loans will  depend on future  events and a variety of
factors (as described  more fully  below),  no assurance can be given as to such
rate or the rate of principal  prepayments in  particular.  The Depositor is not
aware of any  relevant  publicly  available  or  authoritative  statistics  with
respect to the  historical  prepayment  experience  of a large group of mortgage
loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans.

     Losses and  Shortfalls.  The yield to holders of the  Offered  Certificates
will also depend on the extent to which such  holders  are  required to bear the
effects of any losses or  shortfalls  on the  Mortgage  Loans.  Losses and other
shortfalls on the Mortgage  Loans will,  with the exception of any Net Aggregate
Prepayment  Interest  Shortfalls,  generally  be  borne  by the  holders  of the
respective  Classes of  Sequential  Pay  Certificates,  to the extent of amounts
otherwise   distributable   in  respect  of  their   Certificates,   in  reverse
alphabetical order of their Class  designations.  Realized Losses and Additional
Trust Fund Expenses will be allocated, as and to the extent described herein, to
the  respective  Classes of  Sequential  Pay  Certificates  (in reduction of the
Certificate Balance of each such Class), in reverse  alphabetical order of their
Class designations. Any Realized Loss or Additional Trust Fund Expense allocated



                                      S-69
<PAGE>


in  reduction  of  the  Certificate  Balance  of any  Class  of  Sequential  Pay
Certificates will result in a corresponding reduction in the notional amount for
the related Component.  As more fully described herein under "DESCRIPTION OF THE
CERTIFICATES--Distributions--Distributable  Certificate Interest," Net Aggregate
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls will generally be borne by the respective Classes
of REMIC Regular Certificates on a pro rata basis.

     Strip  Rates.  The  Strip  Rate  applicable  to the Class A-1 and Class A-2
Components  for each  Distribution  Date will  equal the  Weighted  Average  Net
Mortgage Rate for such  Distribution  Date minus ___% and ___% respectively (but
not less than zero);  the Strip Rate applicable to the Class B, Class C, Class D
and Class E Components for each  Distribution  Date will equal ___%,  ___%, ___%
and ___%,  respectively;  and the Strip Rate applicable to the Class F, Class G,
Class H, Class J and Class K  Components  for each  Distribution  Date will each
equal the Weighted  Average Net Mortgage Rate for such  Distribution  Date minus
___% (but not less than zero).

     Certain  Relevant  Factors.  The rate and timing of principal  payments and
defaults and the  severity of losses on the Mortgage  Loans may be affected by a
number of factors, including, without limitation, prevailing interest rates, the
terms of the Mortgage Loans (for example, Lockout Periods,  provisions requiring
the payment of Prepayment  Premiums and amortization  terms that require Balloon
Payments), the demographics and relative economic vitality of the areas in which
the  Mortgaged  Properties  are located  and the  general  supply and demand for
rental units,  hotel/motel guest rooms, residential health care facility beds or
comparable  commercial  space,  as  applicable,  in such  areas,  the quality of
management of the  Mortgaged  Properties,  the servicing of the Mortgage  Loans,
possible changes in tax laws and other  opportunities for investment.  See "RISK
FACTORS--The  Mortgage Loans" and  "DESCRIPTION OF THE MORTGAGE POOL" herein and
"YIELD AND MATURITY CONSIDERATIONS--Principal Prepayments" in the Prospectus.

     The rate of  prepayment  on the  Mortgage  Pool is likely to be affected by
prevailing  market interest rates for mortgage loans of a comparable  type, term
and risk level.  When the  prevailing  market  interest rate is below a mortgage
interest rate,  the related  borrower has an incentive to refinance its mortgage
loan.  As of  the  Cut-off  Date,  all of  the  Mortgage  Loans  may  either  be
voluntarily  prepaid  or  defeased  at any  time  after  the  expiration  of the
applicable  Lockout  Period,  subject,  in most cases, to the payment of a Yield
Maintenance  Charge or Percentage  Premium.  A requirement  that a prepayment be
accompanied  by a  Prepayment  Premium  may not  provide a  sufficient  economic
disincentive to deter a borrower from  refinancing at a more favorable  interest
rate.

     Depending  on  prevailing  market  interest  rates,  the outlook for market
interest  rates and economic  conditions  generally,  some borrowers may sell or
refinance Mortgaged Properties in order to realize their equity therein, to meet
cash flow needs or to make other investments. In addition, some borrowers may be
motivated  by federal  and state tax laws  (which are subject to change) to sell
Mortgaged Properties prior to the exhaustion of tax depreciation benefits.

     The Depositor  makes no  representation  as to the particular  factors that
will affect the rate and timing of  prepayments  and  defaults  on the  Mortgage
Loans,  as to the relative  importance of such factors,  as to the percentage of
the  principal  balance  of the  Mortgage  Loans  that will be  prepaid or as to
whether a default will have occurred as of any date or as to the overall rate of
prepayment or default on the Mortgage Loans.

     Delay in Payment of Distributions.  Because monthly  distributions will not
be made to  Certificateholders  until a date that is scheduled to be at least 14
days  following  the Due  Dates  for  the  Mortgage  Loans  during  the  related
Collection   Period,   the  effective  yield  to  the  holders  of  the  Offered
Certificates  will be lower than the yield that would  otherwise  be produced by
the applicable  Pass-Through Rates and purchase prices (assuming such prices did
not account for such delay).

     Unpaid Distributable  Certificate Interest. As described under "DESCRIPTION
OF THE  CERTIFICATES--Distributions--Application  of the Available  Distribution
Amount"   herein,   if  the  portion  of  the  Available   Distribution   Amount
distributable in respect of interest on any Class of Offered 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,  however,  and will
therefore  negatively affect the yield to maturity of such Class of Certificates
for so long as it is outstanding.

     Yield  Sensitivity of the Class IO  Certificates.  The yield to maturity on
the Class IO Certificates will be extremely  sensitive to the rate and timing of
principal   payments   (including  by  reason  of   prepayments,   defaults  and
liquidations)  on the  Mortgage  Loans.  Accordingly,  investors in the Class IO
Certificates should fully consider the associated risks, including the risk that
a rapid rate of prepayment of the Mortgage  Loans could result in the failure of
such  investors to fully recoup their initial  investments.  The allocation of a
portion of collected Percentage Premiums



                                      S-70
<PAGE>


or Yield Maintenance  Charges to the Class IO Certificates is intended to reduce
those risks;  however,  such  allocation may be insufficient to offset fully the
adverse  effects on the yields on such Class of  Certificates  that the  related
prepayments may otherwise have.

     Prepayments on mortgage  loans may be measured by a prepayment  standard or
model. The model used in this Prospectus  Supplement is the "Constant Prepayment
Rate" or "CPR" model.  The CPR model  represents an assumed constant annual rate
of  prepayment  each  month,  expressed  as a per annum  percentage  of the then
scheduled  principal  balance  of one or  more  mortgage  loans.  As used in the
following  table, the column headed "0%" assumes that none of the Mortgage Loans
is prepaid in whole or in part  before  maturity.  The  columns  headed "5%" and
"10%," respectively, assume that prepayments are made each month at those levels
of CPR on each Mortgage Loan whether or not it is then in its Lockout Period, if
any.

     The following table  indicates the  approximate  pre-tax yields to maturity
(on a corporate bond equivalent  basis ("CBE")) on the Class IO Certificates for
the specified CPRs.  Such  calculations  are based on the following  assumptions
("Table Assumptions"):  (i) no prepayment  restrictions apply, and each Mortgage
Loan is assumed to prepay at the  indicated  level of CPR,  with the CPR in each
case  being  applied  on the  first  day of each  month to that  portion  of the
scheduled  principal  amount of the Mortgage Loan that is outstanding,  (ii) the
initial  Certificate  Balances  of  the  Sequential  Pay  Certificates  and  the
Pass-Through  Rates for the REMIC Regular  Certificates  are as described in the
Summary  hereof,  (iii)  there are no  delinquencies  or  Additional  Trust Fund
Expenses,  (iv) scheduled  interest and principal payments on the Mortgage Loans
are timely received,  except as described above, and prepayments are made on the
Mortgage  Loans on their  respective  Due Dates  (assumed in all cases to be the
first day of each month) at the indicated levels of CPR set forth in the tables,
(v) partial prepayments on the Mortgage Loans are permitted, but are assumed not
to affect the amortization schedules, (vi) no Prepayment Premiums are collected,
(vii)  neither the Master  Servicer  nor the  Depositor  exercises  its right of
optional termination of the Trust Fund described herein, (viii) no Mortgage Loan
is required to be purchased  from the Trust Fund,  (ix) there are no  Prepayment
Interest   Shortfalls  or  Appraisal   Reductions,   (x)  distributions  on  the
Certificates  are made on the 15th day (each  assumed to be a  business  day) of
each month,  commencing in April 1998, (xi) the assumed settlement date is March
30, 1998,  and (xii) for the purpose of the  following  tables for Mortgage Loan
control number 325, 326 and 327, it was assumedthat only the Percentage  Premium
was applicable to such Mortgage Loans and the Yield  Maintenance  provisionswere
ignored.

          PRE-TAX YIELD TO MATURITY (CBE) OF THE CLASS IO CERTIFICATES

                                    BREAK-EVEN      PRE-TAX YIELD TO MATURITY AT

(A)  The Break-Even CPR% is the approximate CPR% for each assumed purchase price
     where the pre-tax yield to maturity (CBE) is approximately 0%.

     The pre-tax  yields set forth in the  preceding  table were  calculated  by
determining the monthly discount rates that, when applied to the assumed streams
of cash flow to be paid on the Class IO Certificates, would cause the discounted
present  value  of such  assumed  stream  of cash  flows to  equal  the  assumed
aggregate  purchase price of the Class IO  Certificates,  which includes accrued
interest,  and by  converting  such monthly rates to corporate  bond  equivalent
rates.  Such calculation does not take into account  shortfalls in collection of
interest due to prepayments (or other liquidations) on the Mortgage Loans or the
interest rates at which investors may be able to reinvest funds received by them
as distributions on the Class IO Certificates (and consequently does not purport
to reflect the return on any investment in the Class IO  Certificates  when such
reinvestment rates are considered).

     The  characteristics  of the Mortgage Loans differ in substantial  respects
from those assumed in preparing the table above,  and the table is presented for
illustrative  purposes  only. In  particular,  none of the Mortgage Loans permit
voluntary  partial  prepayments,  and many of the Mortgage  Loans are subject to
Lockout Periods and/or Required



                                      S-71
<PAGE>


Defeasance  Periods  disregarded  in  preparing  the table.  Thus,  neither  the
Mortgage  Pool nor any  Mortgage  Loan will  prepay  at any  constant  rate.  In
addition,  there can be no assurance  that the Mortgage Loans will prepay at any
particular  rate,  that the actual pre-tax  yields on the Class IO  Certificates
will  correspond to any of the pre-tax yields shown herein or that the aggregate
purchase prices of the Class IO Certificates will be those assumed. Accordingly,
investors  must  make  their own  decisions  as to the  appropriate  assumptions
(including  prepayment  assumptions) to be used in deciding  whether to purchase
the Class IO Certificates.

WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE

     The weighted  average life of any Class A-1,  Class A-2,  Class B, Class C,
Class D or Class E  Certificate  refers to the average  amount of time that will
elapse from the date of its issuance until each dollar allocable to principal of
such  Certificate is distributed to the investor.  The weighted  average life of
any such Offered Certificate will be influenced by, among other things, the rate
at which  principal  on the  Mortgage  Loans is paid or  otherwise  collected or
advanced and applied to pay principal of such Offered Certificate.  Any delay in
collection  of a Balloon  Payment due at the maturity of a Mortgage  Loan or the
repayment  of the  principal  balance  of a  Mortgage  Loan  on  its  respective
Anticipated  Repayment Date will likely extend the weighted  average life of the
Class or Classes of Offered Certificates entitled to distributions in respect of
principal  as of the  date  such  Balloon  Payment  was due or such  Anticipated
Repayment Date. As described herein, the Principal  Distribution Amount for each
Distribution  Date  will be  distributable  first in  respect  of the  Class A-1
Certificates until the Certificate  Balance thereof is reduced to zero, and will
thereafter be distributable  entirely in respect of the Class A-2  Certificates,
the Class B Certificates, the Class C Certificates, the Class D Certificates and
the Class E  Certificates,  in that  order,  in each case until the  Certificate
Balance of such Class of Certificates is reduced to zero.

     The following  tables  indicate the  percentage of the initial  Certificate
Balance  of each  Class  of  Offered  Certificates  (other  than  the  Class  IO
Certificates) that would be outstanding after each of the dates shown under each
of the designated scenarios (each, a "Scenario") and the corresponding  weighted
average  life of each such Class of Offered  Certificates.  The tables have been
prepared on the basis of, among others, the assumptions  described below. To the
extent that the Mortgage Loans or the  Certificates  have  characteristics  that
differ from those  assumed in preparing  the tables,  the Class A-1,  Class A-2,
Class B,  Class C, Class D and/or  Class E  Certificates  may mature  earlier or
later than  indicated by the tables.  Accordingly,  the Mortgage  Loans will not
prepay at any constant rate,  and it is highly  unlikely that the Mortgage Loans
will prepay in a manner  consistent with the  assumptions  underlying any of the
Scenarios.  In addition,  variations in the actual prepayment experience and the
balance  of the  Mortgage  Loans  that  prepay  may  increase  or  decrease  the
percentages of initial Certificate  Balances (and shorten or extend the weighted
average  lives) shown in the  following  tables.  Investors are urged to conduct
their own analyses of the rates at which the  Mortgage  Loans may be expected to
prepay.

     The tables set forth below were prepared on the basis of the relevant Table
Assumptions,  except that it was assumed  that there are no  prepayments  on the
Mortgage  Loans  other than in  accordance  with the  designated  Scenario.  The
Scenarios are as follows:

     Scenario (1):                         No Mortgage  Loan  prepays;  that is,
                                           the CPR for the Mortgage Pool is 0%.

     Scenarios  (2),  (3),  (4) and (5):   No Mortgage Loan (including  Mortgage
                                           Loans  allowing  defeasance  but  not
                                           voluntary   prepayment   during   the
                                           Lockout   Period)  prepays  during  a
                                           month in which a Lockout Period is in
                                           effect  or in  which  prepayments  on
                                           such Mortgage Loan are required to be
                                           accompanied  by a  Yield  Maintenance
                                           Charge.   All  other  Mortgage  Loans
                                           prepay  each  month at the rate of 5%
                                           CPR in the case of Scenario  (2), 10%
                                           CPR in the case of Scenario  (3), 15%
                                           in the case of  Scenario  (4) and 25%
                                           in the case of Scenario (5).

     Based  on  the  above-referenced  assumptions,  the  following  six  tables
indicate  the  resulting  weighted  average  lives  of  each  Class  of  Offered
Certificates  (other  than  the  Class  IO  Certificates)  and  sets  forth  the
percentages  of the  initial  Certificate  Balance  of  such  Class  of  Offered
Certificates  that would be outstanding after each of the dates shown under each
of the designated Scenarios.  For purposes of the following tables, the weighted
average  life is  determined  by (i)  multiplying  the amount of each  principal
distribution  thereon by the number of years from the date of  issuance  of such
Certificate to the related Distribution Date, (ii) summing the results and (iii)
dividing the sum by the  aggregate  amount of the  reductions  in the  principal
balance of such Certificate.

                                 USE OF PROCEEDS

     Substantially all of the proceeds from the sale of the Offered Certificates
will be used by the Depositor to purchase the Mortgage  Loans and to pay certain
expenses in connection with the issuance of the Certificates.

                    MATERIAL FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

     Upon the  issuance of the Offered  Certificates,  Willkie Farr & Gallagher,
counsel to the Depositor,  will deliver and file with the Commission its opinion
generally to the effect that,  assuming  compliance  with all  provisions of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, for federal income tax purposes each portion of
the Trust Fund designated in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as a REMIC will
qualify  as a REMIC  under  the Code.  The  assets  of one of such  REMICs  will
generally  consist of the Mortgage  Loans,  any REO  Properties  acquired by the
Trust Fund on behalf of the  Certificateholders and the Certificate Account. For
federal income tax purposes,  the REMIC Regular Certificates (or, in the case of
the Class IO Certificates,  each Component  thereof) will represent the "regular
interests"  in one of  such  REMICs  and  generally  will  be  treated  as  debt
instruments    of   such   REMIC.    See    "MATERIAL    FEDERAL    INCOME   TAX
CONSEQUENCES--REMICs" in the Prospectus.

     The Class A-1, Class A-2, Class B, Class C, Class D Certificates  will not,
and the Class E and Class IO Certificates will, 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 a CPR of 0%. No
representation  is made that the  Mortgage  Loans will prepay at that rate or at
any other rate. See "MATERIAL FEDERAL INCOME TAX  CONSEQUENCES--REMICs--Taxation
of  Owners  of  REMIC  Regular  Certificates--Original  Issue  Discount"  in the
Prospectus.

     If the  method for  computing  original  issue  discount  described  in the
Prospectus  results  in a  negative  amount  for any  period  with  respect to a
Certificateholder  (in particular,  the holder of a Class IO  Certificate),  the
amount of original  issue  discount  allocable  to such period would be zero and
such  Certificateholder  would be permitted to offset such negative  amount only
against  future   original  issue  discount  (if  any)   attributable   to  such
Certificates. Although the matter is not free from doubt, a holder of a Class IO
Certificate  may be  permitted  to deduct a loss to the  extent  that his or her
respective  remaining  basis in such  Certificate  exceeds the maximum amount of
future payments to which such Certificateholder is entitled, assuming no further
prepayments of the Mortgage  Loans.  Any such loss might be treated as a capital
loss.

     The Internal  Revenue Service (the "IRS") has issued  regulations (the "OID
Regulations") under Sections 1271 through 1275 of the Code generally  addressing
the treatment of debt instruments  issued with original issue discount.  The OID
Regulations  in some  circumstances  permit the holder of a debt  instrument  to
recognize  original issue discount under a method that differs from that used by
the  issuer.  Accordingly,  it  is  possible  that  the  holder  of  an  Offered
Certificate  may be able to  select  a method  for  recognizing  original  issue
discount that differs from that used by the Trustee in preparing  reports to the
Certificateholders  and the IRS. Prospective  purchasers of Offered Certificates
are advised to consult their tax advisors  concerning  the tax treatment of such
Certificates.

     The Offered Certificates will be treated as "real estate assets" within the
meaning of Section  856(c)(5)(A) of the Code. In addition,  interest  (including
original issue discount) on the Offered  Certificates will be interest described
in Section  856(c)(3)(B) of the Code.  However,  the Offered  Certificates  will
generally only be considered  assets described in Section  7701(a)(19)(C) of the
Code to the extent that the Mortgage Loans are secured by  residential  property
and, accordingly, investment in the Offered Certificates may not be suitable for
certain thrift institutions.

     Prepayment  Premiums actually  collected will be distributed to the holders
of the Offered  Certificates as described herein. It is not entirely clear under
the Code when the amount of a Prepayment  Premium  should be taxed to the holder
of an  Offered  Certificate,  but it is not  expected,  for  federal  income tax
reporting  purposes,  that Prepayment Premiums will be treated as giving rise to
any  income to the  holders  of the  Offered  Certificates  prior to the  Master
Servicer's  actual receipt of a Prepayment  Premium.  It appears that Prepayment
Premiums,  if any, will be treated as ordinary  income rather than capital gain.
However, that is not entirely clear and Certificateholders  should consult their
own tax advisors  concerning the treatment of Prepayment  Premiums.  For further
information  regarding the federal income tax  consequences  of investing in the
Offered Certificates,  see "MATERIAL FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES--REMICs" in
the Prospectus.

                              ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

     A  fiduciary  of any  employee  benefit  plan or other  retirement  plan or
arrangement, including individual retirement accounts and annuities, Keogh plans
and collective investment funds, separate accounts and 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 (each, a "Plan") 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  permitted either under
ERISA or Section  4975 of the Code or whether  there  exists  any  statutory  or
administrative exemption applicable thereto.

     The U.S.  Department  of  Labor  issued  to  Merrill  Lynch  an  individual
prohibited  transaction  exemption,  Prohibited Transaction Exemption 90-29 (the
"Exemption"),  which  generally  exempts from the  application of the prohibited
transaction  provisions of Section  406(a) and (b) and 407(a) 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, such as
the Mortgage Pool, and the purchase,  sale and holding of mortgage  pass-through
certificates, such as the Senior Certificates, underwritten by an "underwriter,"
provided that certain  conditions set forth in the Exemption are satisfied.  For
purposes of this discussion,  the term  "underwriter"  shall include (a) Merrill
Lynch,   (b)  any  person   directly   or   indirectly,   through  one  or  more
intermediaries,  controlling, controlled by or under common control with Merrill
Lynch 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
Senior Certificates.

     The Exemption sets forth six general  conditions that must be satisfied for
a transaction  involving the purchase,  sale and holding of Class A-1, Class A-2
and Class IO Certificates to be eligible for exemptive relief thereunder. First,
the acquisition of the 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 such Certificates
must not be  subordinated  to the rights and  interests  evidenced  by the other
certificates  of the  same  trust.  Third,  such  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,  Duff & Phelps  Credit  Rating  Co.  ("DCR"),
Moody's  or Fitch  IBCA,  Inc.  ("Fitch").  Fourth,  the  Trustee  cannot  be an
affiliate of any other member of the  "Restricted  Group," which consists of the
Underwriter,  the Depositor,  the Master  Servicer,  the Special  Servicer,  the
Trustee,  any  sub-servicer,  and any borrower  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 such  Certificates.  Fifth,
the sum of all payments made to and retained by the  Underwriter  must represent
not more than reasonable  compensation for underwriting such  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,  the Special  Servicer or any sub-servicer
must represent not more than reasonable  compensation for such person's services
under the Pooling and  Servicing  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.

     Because  none of the Class  A-1,  Class A-2 and Class IO  Certificates  are
subordinated to any other Class of  Certificates,  the second general  condition
set  forth  above  is  satisfied  with  respect  to such  Certificates.  It is a
condition of the issuance of the Class A-1 and Class A-2 Certificates  that they
be rated not lower than "Aaa" by Moody's and "AAA" by Standard & Poor's and that
the Class IO Certificates be rated not lower than "Aaa" by Moody's and "AAAr" by
Standard  &  Poor's;  thus,  the third  general  condition  set  forth  above is
satisfied with respect to such Certificates as of the Closing Date. In addition,
the fourth general condition set forth above is also satisfied as of the Closing
Date. A fiduciary of a Plan contemplating purchasing any such Certificate in the
secondary  market  must  make its own  determination  that,  at the time of such
purchase,  such  Certificate  continues to satisfy the third and fourth  general
conditions set forth above. A fiduciary of a Plan  contemplating the purchase of
any such Certificate must make its own determination  that the first,  fifth and
sixth general  conditions set forth above will be satisfied with respect to such
Certificate as of the date of such purchase.

     The  Exemption  also  requires  that the  Trust  Fund  meet  the  following
requirements:  (i) the Trust Fund must consist solely of assets of the type that
have been included in other investment  pools;  (ii)  certificates in such other
investment pools must have been rated in one of the three highest  categories of
Standard  & Poor's,  DCR,  Moody's  or Fitch for at least one year  prior to the
Plan's  acquisition of such  Certificates;  and (iii) certificates in such other



                                      S-77
<PAGE>


investment  pools must have been purchased by investors  other than Plans for at
least  one year  prior  to any  Plan's  acquisition  of such  Certificates.  The
Depositor has confirmed to its  satisfaction  that such  requirements  have been
satisfied as of the date hereof.

     If the general conditions of the Exemption are satisfied, the Exemption may
provide an exemption from the restrictions imposed by Sections 406(a) and 407(a)
of ERISA (as well as the excise taxes imposed by Sections 4975(a) and (b) of the
Code by reason of Sections  4975(c)(1)(A) through (D) of the Code) in connection
with (i) the direct or indirect sale,  exchange or transfer of such Certificates
in the initial issuance of Certificates  between the Depositor or an Underwriter
and a Plan when the Depositor, an Underwriter, Trustee, Master Servicer, Special
Servicer,  sub-servicer  or borrower is a "Party in Interest," as defined in the
Prospectus,  with  respect to the  investing  Plan,  (ii) the direct or indirect
acquisition or disposition in the secondary  market of Senior  Certificates by a
Plan and (iii)  the  holding  of  Senior  Certificates  by a Plan.  However,  no
exemption is provided from the restrictions of Sections 406(a)(1)(E),  406(a)(2)
and 407 of ERISA for the acquisition or holding of such Certificate on behalf of
an  "Excluded  Plan" by any person who has  discretionary  authority  or renders
investment advice with respect to the assets of such Excluded Plan. For purposes
hereof,  an Excluded  Plan is a Plan  sponsored by any member of the  Restricted
Group.

     If certain  specific  conditions of the Exemption are also  satisfied,  the
Exemption  may provide an exemption  from the  restrictions  imposed by Sections
406(b)(1) and (b)(2) of ERISA and the taxes imposed by Section  4975(c)(1)(E) of
the Code in  connection  with (1) the  direct  or  indirect  sale,  exchange  or
transfer of Senior Certificates in the initial issuance of Certificates  between
the Depositor or an underwriter and a Plan when the person who has discretionary
authority or renders  investment  advice with respect to the  investment of such
Plan's assets in such  Certificates is (a) a borrower with respect to 5% or less
of the fair market  value of the  Mortgage  Loans or (b) an  affiliate of such a
person,  (2) the direct or indirect  acquisition or disposition in the secondary
market  of  Senior  Certificates  by  such  Plan  and (3)  the  holding  of such
Certificates by such Plan.

     Further, if certain specific conditions of the Exemption are satisfied, the
Exemption  may provide an exemption  from the  restrictions  imposed by Sections
406(a),  406(b) and 407(a) of ERISA,  and the taxes imposed by Sections  4975(a)
and (b) of the Code by reason of Section 4975(c) of the Code for transactions in
connection  with the  servicing,  management and operation of the Mortgage Pool.
The Depositor expects that the specific conditions of the Exemption required for
this purpose will be satisfied with respect to the Senior Certificates.

     The Exemption also may provide an exemption from the  restrictions  imposed
by  Sections  406(a) and  407(a) of ERISA,  and the taxes  imposed  by  Sections
4975(a) and (b) of the Code by reason of Sections  4975(c)(1)(A)  through (D) of
the Code if such  restrictions  are deemed to otherwise  apply merely  because a
person is deemed to be a Party in Interest with respect to an investing  Plan by
virtue  of  providing  services  to the Plan (or by  virtue  of  having  certain
specified  relationships  to such a person)  solely  as a result  of the  Plan's
ownership of the Senior Certificates. A purchaser of any such Certificate should
be  aware,  however,  that  even  if the  conditions  specified  in one or  more
Exemptions are satisfied,  the scope of relief  provided by an Exemption may not
cover all acts that may be considered prohibited transactions.

     Before  purchasing  any Senior  Certificate,  a fiduciary  of a Plan should
itself confirm 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.

     The  characteristics  of  the  Class  B,  Class  C,  Class  D and  Class  E
Certificates  do not  meet  the  requirements  of the  Exemptions.  Accordingly,
Certificates  of those  Classes  may not be  acquired  by a Plan,  other than an
insurance  company general account,  which may be able to rely on Section III of
PTE 95-60 (discussed below).

     Section III of Prohibited  Transaction  Class Exemption 95-60 ("PTE 95-60")
exempts  from  the  application  of the  prohibited  transaction  provisions  of
Sections  406(a),  406(b)  and  407(a)  of ERISA  and  Section  4975 of the Code
transactions  in connection  with the  servicing,  management and operation of a
trust (such as the Trust Fund) in which an insurance company general account has
an interest as a result of its acquisition of certificates  issued by the trust,
provided that certain  conditions  are satisfied.  If these  conditions are met,
insurance  company  general  accounts  would be allowed to  purchase  classes of
Certificates  (such as the Class B, Class C,  Class D and Class E  Certificates)
which do not meet the  requirements of the Exemption solely because they (i) are
subordinated to other classes of Certificates in the Trust Fund and/or (ii) have
not received a rating at the time of the acquisition in one of the three highest
rating



                                      S-78
<PAGE>


categories from Standard & Poor's,  Moody's,  DCR or Fitch. All other conditions
of the  Exemption  would  have to be  satisfied  in  order  for PTE  95-60 to be
available. Before purchasing Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates,
an insurance company general account seeking to rely on Section III of PTE 95-60
should itself confirm that all applicable conditions and other requirements have
been satisfied.

     Insurance company general accounts purchasing any Class of Certificates may
also be able to rely on  relief  from  certain  fiduciary  provisions  of  ERISA
provided under Section 401(c) of ERISA.  Insurance  companies seeking to rely on
such relief should  independently  determine  whether,  and the extent to which,
such relief is available.

                                LEGAL INVESTMENT

     None of the Certificates will constitute  "mortgage related securities" for
purposes of the Secondary  Mortgage  Market  Enhancement Act of 1984, as amended
("SMMEA").  As a result,  the appropriate  characterization  of the Certificates
under various legal investment  restrictions,  and thus the ability of investors
subject to these  restrictions to purchase the Certificates of any Class, may be
subject to significant interpretative uncertainties.  In addition,  institutions
whose investment activities are subject to review by federal or state regulatory
authorities  may be or may become subject to  restrictions  on the investment by
such  institutions in certain forms of mortgage  related  securities.  Investors
should consult their own legal advisors to determine  whether and to what extent
the Offered  Certificates  constitute  legal  investments  for them.  See "Legal
Investment" in the Prospectus.

     The  Depositor  makes no  representation  as to the  ability of  particular
investors to purchase the Offered Certificates under applicable legal investment
or other restrictions.  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 Offered Certificates constitute legal
investments   for  them  or  are  subject  to   investment,   capital  or  other
restrictions. See "LEGAL INVESTMENT" in the Prospectus.

                             METHOD OF DISTRIBUTION

     Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the underwriting agreement
(the "Underwriting  Agreement") between the Depositor and the Underwriters,  the
Depositor has agreed to sell to Merrill Lynch and Daiwa  Securities  and Merrill
Lynch and Daiwa Securities have agreed to purchase __% and __%, respectively, of
the respective Certificate Balances of each Class of Offered Certificates.

     In the Underwriting  Agreement,  the Underwriters  have generally agreed to
purchase all of the Offered Certificates if any are purchased. In the event of a
default by either  Underwriter,  the  Underwriting  Agreement  provides that the
purchase commitment of the non-defaulting Underwriter may be increased. Proceeds
to the Depositor  from the sale of the Offered  Certificates,  before  deducting
expenses payable by the Depositor, will be approximately $______, which includes
accrued interest.

     Distribution of the Offered  Certificates  will be made by each Underwriter
from time to time in negotiated  transactions  or otherwise at varying prices to
be determined at the time of sale. Each Underwriter may effect such transactions
by selling the Offered  Certificates to or through dealers, and such dealers may
receive  compensation  in the form of  underwriting  discounts,  concessions  or
commissions from such  Underwriter.  In connection with the purchase and sale of
the  Offered  Certificates,  the  Underwriters  may be deemed  to have  received
compensation  from the  Depositor in the form of  underwriting  discounts.  Each
Underwriter  and any  dealers  that  participate  with such  Underwriter  in the
distribution of the Offered  Certificates  may be deemed to be underwriters  and
any profit on the resale of the Offered  Certificates  positioned by them may be
deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.

     Purchasers of the 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 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.


                                      S-79
<PAGE>


     The Depositor also has been advised by the Underwriters  that each of them,
through one or more of its affiliates, currently intends to make a market in the
Offered Certificates;  however, neither Underwriter has any 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 Offered  Certificates  will  develop.  See
"RISK FACTORS--Limited Liquidity" herein and in the Prospectus.

     The Depositor has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters and each person,  if
any,  who  controls  such  Underwriter  within the  meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act against,  or make contributions to each Underwriter and each such
controlling person with respect to, certain liabilities,  including  liabilities
under the Securities Act.

                                  LEGAL MATTERS

     Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Depositor by Willkie Farr
& Gallagher, New York, New York and for the Underwriters by Schulte Roth & Zabel
LLP, New York, New York.

                                     RATINGS

     It is a  condition  of their  issuance  that the  Class  A-1 and  Class A-2
Certificates  be rated not lower  than  "AAA" by  Standard & Poor's and "Aaa" by
Moody's,  that the  Class IO  Certificates  be rated not  lower  than  "AAAr" by
Standard & Poor's and "Aaa" by Moody's,  that the Class B Certificates  be rated
not lower than "AA" by Standard & Poor's and "Aa2" by Moody's,  that the Class C
Certificates  be rated not lower  than "A" by  Standard  and  Poor's and "A2" by
Moody's, that the Class D Certificates be rated not lower than "BBB" by Standard
and Poor's and "Baa2" by Moody's and that the Class E Certificates  be rated not
lower than "BBB-" by Standard and Poor's and "Baa3" by Moody's.

     The  ratings on the Offered  Certificates  address  the  likelihood  of the
timely receipt by holders thereof of  distributions of interest and principal to
which they are entitled  and,  except in the case of the Class IO  Certificates,
distributions of principal  sufficient to reduce the Certificate Balance of each
Class of Offered  Certificates  to zero by the Rated  Final  Distribution  Date,
which is the first  Distribution Date that follows the second anniversary of the
end of the amortization term for the Mortgage Loan that, as of the Cut-off Date,
has the longest remaining amortization term. The ratings take into consideration
the credit quality of the Mortgage Pool, structural and legal aspects associated
with the Offered  Certificates,  and the extent to which the payment stream from
the  Mortgage  Pool is  adequate  to make  payments  required  under the Offered
Certificates.  A security  rating does not represent  any  assessment of (i) the
likelihood or frequency of principal prepayments on the Mortgage Loans, (ii) the
degree to which such prepayments might differ from those originally  anticipated
or (iii) whether and to what extent Prepayment Premiums, Additional Interest and
Net  Default  Interest  will be  received.  Also,  a  security  rating  does not
represent any  assessment of the yield to maturity that investors may experience
or the possibility that the holders of the Class IO Certificates might not fully
recover their investment in the event of rapid prepayments of the Mortgage Loans
(including both voluntary and involuntary prepayments). As described herein, the
amounts  payable  with  respect  to the Class IO  Certificates  consist  only of
interest.  If the Mortgage  Pool were to entirely  prepay in the initial  month,
with the result that holders of the Class IO Certificates  receive only a single
month's interest and thus suffer a nearly complete loss of their investment, all
amounts "due" to such  Certificateholders  will nevertheless have been paid, and
such  result  is  consistent   with  the  ratings   received  on  the  Class  IO
Certificates.  Accordingly,  the ratings of the Class IO Certificates  should be
evaluated independently from similar ratings on other types of securities.

     Standard & Poor's assigns the additional symbol of "r" to highlight classes
of securities  that Standard & Poor's believes may experience high volatility or
high  variability  in expected  returns due to non-credit  risks;  however,  the
absence of an "r" symbol should not be taken as an indication  that a class will
exhibit no volatility or variability in total return.

     There can be no assurance  that any rating agency not requested to rate the
Offered  Certificates  will not nonetheless issue a rating to any or all Classes
thereof and, if so, what such rating or ratings  would be. A rating  assigned to
any Class of Offered Certificates by a rating agency that has not been requested
by the Depositor to do so may be lower than the rating  assigned  thereto by any
of the Rating Agencies.

     The ratings on the Offered  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.   See   "RISK
FACTORS--Limited Nature of Ratings" inthe Prospectus.

                                        Certificates  based upon a formula which
                                        is based,  in part, on the  relationship
                                        between  the  Pass-Through  Rate  of the

                              o         In general, this formula provides for an
                                        increase in the allocation of prepayment
                                        premiums   to   the    Sequential    Pay
                                        Certificates  as interest rates decrease
                                        and a decrease in the allocation to such
                                        classes as interest rates rise.

                              The  "Discount  Rate"  applicable  to any Class of
                              Certificates  will be  equal  to the  yield  (when
                              compounded   monthly)  on  the  non-callable  U.S.
                              Treasury  issue  (primary  issue)  with a maturity
                              date closest to the maturity  date for the prepaid
                              Mortgage  Loan.  In the event  that  there are two
                              such  U.S.  Treasury  issues  (a)  with  the  same
                              coupon,  the issue  with the lower  yield  will be
                              utilized,  and (b)  with  maturity  dates  equally
                              close  to  the  maturity   date  for  the  prepaid
                              Mortgage   Loan,   the  issue  with  the  earliest
                              maturity date will be utilized.

                              Servicer  will be  required  to obtain  (within 60
                              days of the applicable Required Appraisal Date) an
                              appraisal of the related Mortgage Property, unless
                              such an  appraisal  had been  previously  obtained
                              within the last twelve months.

                              If any Required Appraisal Loan becomes a Corrected
                              Mortgage Loan, then the Appraisal Reduction Amount
                              (as defined in the Prospectus Supplement) shall be
                             deemed to be zero.

(1) Debt Service Coverage Ratios are calculated as described in the prospectus,
values are updated periodically as new NOI figures become available from
borrowers on an asset level. The Trustee makes no representations as to the
accuracy of the data provided by the borrower for this calculation.

(2) Anticipated Remaining Term and WAM are each calculated based upon the term
from the current month to the earlier of the Anticipated Repayment Date, if
applicable, and the maturity date.

(3) Data in this table was calculated by allocating pro-rata the current loan
information to the properties based upon the Cut-off Date balance of each
property as disclosed in the offering document.

PROSPECTUS

                       MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATES
                              (ISSUABLE IN SERIES)
                     MERRILL LYNCH MORTGAGE INVESTORS, INC.
                                    DEPOSITOR

                                   ----------

     The mortgage pass-through certificates (the "Offered Certificates") offered
hereby and by the supplements  hereto (each, a "Prospectus  Supplement") will be
offered from time to time in series.  The Offered  Certificates  of each series,
together with any other mortgage  pass-through  certificates of such series, are
collectively referred to herein as the "Certificates."

     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  primarily  of a  segregated  pool  of one or more of
various types of multifamily or commercial mortgage loans (the "Mortgage Loans")
secured by interests in the  following  property  types  residential  properties
consisting of five or more rental or cooperatively-owned  dwelling units, retail
stores,  hotels or motels, office buildings,  industrial plants,  nursing homes,
mobile  home  parks,  self-storage  facilities,  or mixed use or other  types of
income producing  properties,  mortgage-backed  securities ("MBS") that evidence
interests in, or that are secured by pledges of, one or more of various types of
multifamily or commercial mortgage loans, or a combination of Mortgage Loans and
MBS  (collectively,  "Mortgage  Assets").  See "Description of the Trust Funds."
Mortgage Loans (or mortgage loans underlying an MBS) may be delinquent as of the
date  Certificates  of a series  are  issued,  if so  specified  in the  related
Prospectus Supplement. If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
Trust  Fund for a series of  Certificate  may  include  amounts  on deposit in a
separate account (the "Pre-Funding Account") which may be used by the Trust Fund
to acquire  additional  assets as more fully described herein and in the related
Prospectus Supplement. 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  "Risk   Factors--Effects  of  Pre-Funding  and
Acquisition of Additional  Mortgage  Assets,"  "Description of the Certificates"
and "Description of Credit Support."

     Each  series  of  Certificates  will  consist  of one or  more  classes  of
Certificates,   and  such  class  or  classes   (including  classes  of  Offered
Certificates)  may (i) provide for the  accrual of interest  thereon  based on a
fixed, variable or adjustable rate; (ii) be senior or subordinate to one or more
other classes of  Certificates  in entitlement to certain  distributions  on the
Certificates;   (iii)  be  entitled  to   distributions   of   principal,   with
disproportionately  small,  nominal or no  distributions  of  interest;  (iv) be
entitled to distributions of interest, with disproportionately small, nominal or
no distributions of principal; (v) provide for distributions of principal and/or
interest that commence 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  to be made,  from time to time or for
designated periods, at a rate that is faster (and, in some cases,  substantially
faster) or slower (and,  in some cases,  substantially  slower) than the rate at
which  payments or other  collections  of principal are received on the Mortgage
Assets  in the  related  Trust  Fund;  or (vii)  provide  for  distributions  of
principal to be made, subject to available funds, based on a specified principal
payment schedule or other methodology. See "Description of the Certificates."

     Distributions in respect of the Certificates of each series will be made on
a monthly,  quarterly,  semi-annual  or other periodic basis as specified in the
related  Prospectus  Supplement.  Such  distributions will be made only from the
assets of the related Trust Fund.

     This  Prospectus  and  related  Prospectus  Supplements  may be used by the
Depositor, Merrill Lynch, an affiliate of the Depositor, and any other affiliate
of the Depositor  when required  under the federal  securities law in connection
with offers and sales of Offered  Certificates  in furtherance of  market-making
activities in Offered  Certificates.  Merrill Lynch or any such other  affiliate
may act as principal or agent in such  transactions.  Such sales will be made at
prices related to prevailing marketing prices at the time of sale or otherwise.

     No  Certificates  of any series will represent an obligation of or interest
in the  Depositor  or  any  of its  affiliates,  except  to the  limited  extent
described  herein  and  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement.   Neither  the
Certificates  of any  series nor the  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  (the  "Certificateholders")
pursuant to a Pooling 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) on
the Mortgage  Assets in the related Trust Fund and the timing of receipt of such
payments as  described  herein and in the  related  Prospectus  Supplement.  See
"Yield  and  Maturity  Considerations."  A Trust  Fund may be  subject  to early
termination  under  the  circumstances  described  herein  and  in  the  related
Prospectus Supplement. See "Description of the Certificates."

     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" (a "REMIC") for federal  income tax
purposes. See "Material Federal Income Tax Consequences" herein.

                                   ----------

   PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CONSIDER THE INFORMATION SET FORTH UNDER "RISK
    FACTORS" ON PAGE 16 OF THIS PROSPECTUS AND SUCH INFORMATION AS MAY BE SET
        FORTH UNDER THE CAPTION "RISK FACTORS" IN THE RELATED PROSPECTUS
             SUPPLEMENT BEFORE PURCHASING ANY OFFERED CERTIFICATE.

                                   ----------

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

                                   ----------

     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.  See
"Risk  Factors."  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.

     The Offered  Certificates  of any series may be offered through one or more
different  methods,  including  offerings  through  underwriters,  as more fully
described under "Method of  Distribution"  herein and in the related  Prospectus
Supplement.

series,  including the payment  provisions with respect to each such class,  the
aggregate principal amount of each such class (the "Certificate  Balance"),  the

each such class (the  "Pass-Through  Rate") or the  method of  determining  such
rate; (ii)  information with respect to any other classes of Certificates of the
same series; (iii) the respective dates on which distributions are to be made to
Certificateholders;  (iv) information as to the assets  constituting the related
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");
(v) the circumstances, if any, under which the related Trust Fund may be subject
to early termination;  (vi) additional information with respect to the method of

                              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 the
Offered  Certificates of each series 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,  500 West Madison,  14th
Floor, Chicago,  Illinois 60661; and New York Regional Office, Seven World Trade
Center,  New  York,  New  York  10048.  Publicly  filed  information,  including
information regarding the Registrant,  is available at the Commission's web site
at www.sec.gov.

     No  person  has  been  authorized  to give any  information  or to make any
representation  not  contained  in this  Prospectus  and any related  Prospectus
Supplement and, if given or made, such information or representation must not be
relied  upon.  This  Prospectus  and any related  Prospectus  Supplement  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.

     The related Master  Servicer or Trustee will be required to mail to holders
of the Offered Certificates of each series periodic unaudited reports concerning
the  related  Trust  Fund.  If  beneficial  interests  in  a  class  of  Offered
Certificates  are being held and  transferred  in book-entry  format through the
facilities of The Depository  Trust Company  ("DTC") as described  herein,  then
unless otherwise  provided in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  such reports
will be sent on  behalf of the  related  Trust  Fund to a nominee  of DTC as the
registered  holder of the Offered  Certificates.  The means by which notices and
other communications are conveyed by DTC to its participating organizations, and
directly  or  indirectly  through  such   participating   organizations  to  the
beneficial owners of the applicable  Offered  Certificates,  will be governed by
arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory  requirements as
may   be  in   effect   from   time   to   time.   See   "Description   of   the
Certificates--Reports to Certificateholders" and "--Book-Entry  Registration and
Definitive  Certificates," and "Description of the Pooling  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.

                                           income under  Sections  856(c)(5)(A),

                                           the Code unless  otherwise  stated in

                                        It is unclear whether Stripped  Interest
                                           Certificates   will  be   treated  as
                                           representing an ownership interest in
                                           qualifying  assets and  income  under
                                           Sections       856(c)(5)(A)       and
                                           856(c)(3)(B)  of the  Code,  although
                                           the policy considerations  underlying
                                           those  Sections   suggest  that  such
                                           treatment    should   be   available.
                                           However,  such  Certificates will not
                                           be   treated   as   representing   an
                                           ownership    interest    in    assets
                                           described  in Section  7701(a)(19)(C)
                                           of the Code unless  otherwise  stated

                                           particular  the method  such  holders
                                           should use to recover their  purchase

                                  RISK FACTORS

     In  considering  an investment in the Offered  Certificates  of any series,
investors should  consider,  among other things,  the following  factors and any
other  factors  set forth  under  the  heading  "Risk  Factors"  in the  related
Prospectus  Supplement.  Additional  risk factors are set forth elsewhere in the
Prospectus  under  separate  headings,  and  will be set  forth  in the  related
Prospectus  Supplement under separate  headings,  in connection with discussions
regarding  particular  aspects  of Trust  Fund  Assets or the  Certificates.  In
general,  to the  extent  that the  factors  discussed  below  pertain to or are
influenced by the  characteristics  or behavior of Mortgage  Loans included in a
particular Trust Fund, they would similarly  pertain to and be influenced by the
characteristics or behavior of the mortgage loans underlying any MBS included in
such Trust Fund.

LIMITED LIQUIDITY FOR OFFERED CERTIFICATES

     Merrill Lynch, Pierce,  Fenner & Smith Incorporated,  itself or through one
or more of its affiliates,  currently  expects to make a secondary market in the
Offered  Certificates  of each series,  but has no obligation to do so. However,
there can be no assurance that a secondary  market for the Offered  Certificates
of any series will develop or, if it does develop,  that it will provide holders
with  liquidity of investment or will continue for as long as such  Certificates
remain  outstanding.  Furthermore,  because,  among other things,  the timing of
receipt of payments with respect to a pool of multifamily or commercial mortgage
loans may be  substantially  more  difficult  to predict  than that of a pool of
single family  mortgage loans,  any such secondary  market that does develop may
provide less liquidity to investors  than any  comparable  market for securities
that evidence interests in single-family mortgage loans.

     The  primary  source  of  continuing   information  regarding  the  Offered
Certificates of any series,  including  information  regarding the status of the
related  Mortgage Assets and any Credit Support for such  Certificates,  will be
the periodic  reports to  Certificateholders  delivered  pursuant to the related
Pooling  Agreement as described  herein  under the heading  "Description  of the
Certificates--Reports to Certificateholders." There can be no assurance that any
additional  continuing  information  regarding the Offered  Certificates  of any
series will be available  through any other  source,  and the limited  nature of
such information may adversely affect the liquidity thereof, even if a secondary
market for such Certificates does develop.

     Except  to the  extent  described  herein  and in  the  related  Prospectus
Supplement,  Certificateholders  will have no redemption rights, and the Offered
Certificates  of each series are subject to early  retirement only under certain
specified   circumstances   described  herein  and  in  the  related  Prospectus
Supplement. See "Description of the Certificates--Termination."

LIMITED ASSETS TO SUPPORT PAYMENT ON CERTIFICATES

     Unless otherwise  specified in the related Prospectus  Supplement,  neither
the Offered  Certificates  of any series nor the Mortgage  Assets in the related
Trust  Fund  will  be  guaranteed  or  insured  by the  Depositor  or any of its
affiliates,  by any  governmental  agency  or  instrumentality  or by any  other
person; and no Offered  Certificate of any series will represent a claim against
or security  interest in the Trust Funds for any other series.  Accordingly,  if
the  related  Trust  Fund  has  insufficient  assets  to make  payments  on such
Certificates,  no other assets will be available for payment of the  deficiency.
See "Description of the Trust Funds."  Additionally,  certain amounts on deposit
from time to time remaining in certain funds or accounts  constituting part of a
Trust Fund,  including the  Certificate  Account and any accounts  maintained as
Credit Support, may be withdrawn under certain conditions that will be described
in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  for purposes  other than the payment of
principal of or interest on the related series of  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  Mortgage  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.

PREPAYMENTS ON MORTGAGE LOANS; EFFECTS ON AVERAGE LIFE OF CERTIFICATES;  EFFECTS
ON YIELDS ON CERTIFICATES

     For a number of reasons, including the difficulty of predicting the rate of
prepayments  on the Mortgage  Loans in a particular  Trust Fund,  the amount and
timing of distributions of principal and/or interest on the Offered Certificates

                                       16
<PAGE>

of the related series may be highly  unpredictable.  Prepayments on the Mortgage
Loans in any Trust Fund will  result in a faster rate of  principal  payments on
one or  more  classes  of the  related  Certificates  than if  payments  on such
Mortgage Loans were made as scheduled.  Thus,  the prepayment  experience on the
Mortgage  Loans may affect the average life of each class of such  Certificates,
including a class of Offered  Certificates.  The rate of  principal  payments on
pools of mortgage  loans varies among pools and from time to time is  influenced
by a variety of economic, demographic,  geographic, social, tax, legal and other
factors.  For example, if prevailing interest rates fall significantly below the
Mortgage Rates borne by the Mortgage  Loans included in a Trust Fund,  principal
prepayments are likely to be higher than if prevailing  rates remain at or above
the rates borne by those  Mortgage  Loans.  Conversely,  if prevailing  interest
rates rise  significantly  above the Mortgage  Rates borne by the Mortgage Loans
included in a Trust Fund,  principal  prepayments thereon are likely to be lower
than if  prevailing  interest  rates remain at or below the rates borne by those
Mortgage  Loans.  There can be no assurance as to the rate of prepayments on the
Mortgage  Loans in any Trust  Fund or that such rate will  conform  to any model
described herein or in any Prospectus Supplement.  As a result, depending on the
anticipated  rate of prepayment  for the Mortgage  Loans in any Trust Fund,  the
retirement  of any class of  Certificates  of the  related  series  could  occur
significantly earlier or later thanexpected.

     The extent to which  prepayments  on the  Mortgage  Loans in any Trust Fund
ultimately  affect the average life of any class of  Certificates of the related
series will depend on the terms of such  Certificates.  A class of Certificates,
including a class of Offered Certificates,  may provide that on any Distribution
Date the holders of such  Certificates  are  entitled to (i) a pro rata share of
the prepayments  (including  prepayments occasioned by defaults) on the Mortgage
Loans in the  related  Trust Fund that are  distributable  on such date,  (ii) a
disproportionately  large  share  (which,  in  some  cases,  may be all) of such
prepayments,  or (iii) a  disproportionately  small share (which, in some cases,
may be none) of such  prepayments.  A class of  Certificates  that  entitles the
holders thereof to a disproportionately  large share of prepayments enhances the
risk of early  retirement  of such class ("call risk") if the rate of prepayment
is faster than  anticipated.  A class of Certificates  that entitles the holders
thereof to a disproportionately  small share of prepayments enhances the risk of
an  extended  average  life of such  class  ("extension  risk")  if the  rate of
prepayment  is slower than  anticipated.  As and to the extent  described in the
related  Prospectus  Supplement,  the  respective  entitlements  of the  various
classes  of  Certificateholders  of any  series to  receive  payments  (and,  in
particular, prepayments) of principal of the Mortgage Loans in the related Trust
Fund may vary based on the occurrence of certain events (e.g., the retirement of
one or more  classes  of  Certificates  of such  series)  or  subject to certain
contingencies (e.g.,  prepayment and default rates with respect to such Mortgage
Loans).

     A series of Certificates  may include one or more  Controlled  Amortization
Classes that will be entitled to receive principal  distributions according to a
specified  principal  payment  schedule.  Although  prepayment  risk  cannot  be
eliminated   entirely  for  any  class  of  Certificates,   it  can  be  reduced
substantially  in the  case of a  Controlled  Amortization  Class so long as the
actual rate of  prepayments  on the  Mortgage  Loans in the  related  Trust Fund
remains  relatively  constant  at the  rate,  or within  the range of rates,  of
prepayment used to establish the specific  principal  payment  schedule for such
Certificates. However, the reduction of prepayment risk afforded to a Controlled
Amortization  Class comes at the expense of one or more Companion Classes of the
same  series,  any of which  Companion  Classes  may also be a class of  Offered
Certificates.  In general,  and as more  specifically  described  in the related
Prospectus  Supplement,  a Companion Class will entitle the holders thereof to a
disproportionately  large  share of  prepayments  on the  Mortgage  Loans in the
related  Trust  Fund when the rate of  prepayment  is  relatively  fast and to a
disproportionately  small share of those prepayments when the rate of prepayment
is  relatively  slow.  A Companion  Class thus absorbs some (but not all) of the
"call risk"  and/or  "extension  risk" that would  otherwise  affect the related
Controlled Amortization Class if all payments of principal of the Mortgage Loans
were allocated on a pro rata basis.

     A series of  Certificates  may also  include one or more classes of Offered
Certificates  offered  at a  premium  or  discount.  Yields on such  classes  of
Certificates  will be  sensitive,  and in some  cases  extremely  sensitive,  to
prepayments on the Mortgage Loans in the related Trust Fund. Where the amount of
interest  payable  with  respect  to a class  is  disproportionately  large,  as
compared  to the  amount of  principal,  as with  certain  classes  of  Stripped
Interest  Certificates,  a holder might fail to recoup its  original  investment
under some prepayment scenarios. An investor should consider, in the case of any
Offered  Certificate  purchased  at a  discount,  the risk  that a  slower  than
anticipated rate of principal  payments on the Mortgage Loans could result in an
actual yield to such investor that is lower than the  anticipated  yield and, in
the case of any  Offered  Certificate  purchased  at a premium,  the risk that a
faster than  anticipated  rate of principal  payments  could result in an actual
yield to such investor that is lower


                                       17
<PAGE>

than the anticipated yield. See "Yield and Maturity  Considerations" herein and,
if applicable, in the related Prospectus Supplement.

OPTIONAL EARLY TERMINATION

     If  so  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,  a  series  of
Certificates  may be  subject  to  optional  early  termination  by means of the
repurchase  of the  Mortgage  Assets in the  related  Trust Fund by the party or
parties 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, a party specified  therein may be authorized or
required to solicit bids for the  purchase of all of the Mortgage  Assets of the
Trust Fund, or of a sufficient  portion of such  Mortgage  Assets to retire such
class or classes,  under the  circumstances and in the manner set forth therein.
In the event of a partial or complete  termination of a Trust Fund, there can be
no  assurance  that the  proceeds  from a sale of the  Mortgage  Assets  will be
sufficient  to  distribute  the  outstanding  Certificate  Balance  plus accrued
interest  and  any   undistributed   shortfalls  in  interest   accrued  on  the
Certificates  subject  to the  termination.  Accordingly  the  holders  of  such
Certificates   may  incur  a  loss.  See   "Description   of  the   Certificates
- --Termination."  In the event that partial or complete  early  termination  of a
series of Certificates is authorized and does occur in this manner,  the holders
of the series of Certificates or one or more classes of a series of Certificates
that are terminated early may experience  repayment of their investment  outside
their control at an unpredictable  and inopportune  time.  Moreover,  such early
termination  could have an adverse  impact on the overall yield received by such
holder,  depending  upon the  amount of the series of  Certificates  or class or
classes of such series  that is  outstanding  at the time of early  termination,
among other factors.

LIMITED NATURE OF RATINGS ON CERTIFICATES

     Any rating  assigned by a Rating Agency to a class of Offered  Certificates
will reflect only its assessment of the likelihood  that holders of Certificates
of such  class  will  receive  payments  to which  such  Certificateholders  are
entitled under the related Pooling Agreement. Such rating will not constitute an
assessment of the likelihood that principal  prepayments on the related Mortgage
Loans  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 related  Trust Fund.  Neither  will such rating  address the
possibility  that prepayments on the related Mortgage Loans at a higher or lower
rate than  anticipated  by an investor may cause such  investor to  experience a
lower than  anticipated  yield or that an  investor  that  purchases  an Offered
Certificate at a significant premium might fail to recoup its initial investment
under certain prepayment scenarios.

     The  amount,  type and  nature of Credit  Support,  if any,  provided  with
respect to a series of Certificates  will be determined on the basis of criteria
established  by each Rating Agency rating  classes of the  Certificates  of such
series.  Those  criteria are sometimes  based upon an actuarial  analysis of the
behavior of mortgage loans in a larger group. However, there can be no assurance
that the historical data supporting any such actuarial  analysis will accurately
reflect  future  experience,  or that  the  data  derived  from a large  pool of
mortgage  loans will  accurately  predict the  delinquency,  foreclosure or loss
experience  of any  particular  pool of Mortgage  Loans.  In other  cases,  such
criteria  may be  based  upon  determinations  of the  values  of the  Mortgaged
Properties that provide security for the Mortgage Loans.  However,  no assurance
can be given that those values will not decline in the future.  See "Description
of Credit Support" and "Rating."

EFFECTS OF PRE-FUNDING AND ACQUISITION OF ADDITIONAL MORTGAGE ASSETS

     Any  amounts on  deposit  in a  Pre-Funding  Account  as  described  in the
Prospectus  Supplement for a series of Certificates  that is not used to acquire
additional  Mortgage  Assets  by  the  end  of the  Pre-Funding  Period,  may be
distributed to holders of Certificates as a prepayment of principal as set forth
in the related  Prospectus  Supplement.  Such a  prepayment  of principal to the
holders of  Certificates  may materially  and adversely  effect the yield on the
Certificates. See "Yield and Maturity Considerations" herein and, if applicable,
in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     Any  additional  Mortgage  Assets  acquired  by a  Trust  Fund  during  the
Pre-Funding  Period,  as described  in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  may
possess substantially different  characteristics than the Mortgage Assets in the

                                       18
<PAGE>

Trust Fund on the Closing Date.  Therefore the  aggregate  characteristics  of a
Trust Fund following the Pre-Funding Period may be substantially  different than
the characteristics of a Trust Fund on the Closing Date.

RISKS TO LENDERS  ASSOCIATED  WITH CERTAIN  MORTGAGE LOANS AND INCOME  PRODUCING
PROPERTIES

     Mortgage loans made on the security of  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 loans made on the
security   of   single-family   property.   See   "Description   of  the   Trust
Funds--Mortgage  Loans." The ability of a borrower to repay a loan secured by an
income-producing  property typically is dependent  primarily upon the successful
operation of such property rather than upon the existence of independent  income
or assets of the borrower;  thus, the value of an  income-producing  property is
directly related to the net operating income derived from such property.  If the
net  operating  income of the  property is reduced  (for  example,  if rental or
occupancy  rates  decline or real estate tax rates or other  operating  expenses
increase), the borrower's ability to repay the loan may be impaired. A number of
the  Mortgage  Loans  may  be  secured  by  liens  on  owner-occupied  Mortgaged
Properties or on Mortgaged Properties leased to a single tenant.  Accordingly, a
decline  in the  financial  condition  of the  borrower  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.  Furthermore,  the  value of any
Mortgaged  Property may be  adversely  affected by risks  generally  incident to
interests  in real  property,  including  changes in  general or local  economic
conditions  and/or specific industry  segments;  declines in real estate values;
declines in rental or occupancy rates;  increases in interest rates, real estate
tax  rates  and  other  operating  expenses;   changes  in  governmental  rules,
regulations and fiscal policies,  including environmental  legislation;  acts of
God; and other factors beyond the control of a Master Servicer.

     It is  anticipated  that some or all 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 those Mortgage Loans,  recourse in the event
of borrower  default  will be limited to the  specific  real  property and other
assets,  if any, that were pledged to secure the Mortgage  Loan.  However,  even
with  respect to those  Mortgage  Loans that  provide for  recourse  against the
borrower and its assets generally, there can be no assurance that enforcement of
such recourse provisions will be practicable, or that the assets of the borrower
will be sufficient to permit a recovery in respect of a defaulted  Mortgage Loan
in excess of the liquidation value of the related Mortgaged Property.

     Further,  the  concentration  of  default,  foreclosure  and loss  risks in
individual  Mortgage Loans in a particular  Trust Fund will generally be greater
than for pools of  single-family  loans because  Mortgage  Loans in a Trust Fund
will generally  consist of a smaller number of higher balance loans than would a
pool of single-family loans of comparable aggregate unpaid principal balance.

     Risks Associated with Mortgage Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties.  It
is  expected  that  Mortgage  Loans  secured  by  multi-family  properties  will
constitute  a material  consentration  of the  Mortgage  Loans in a Trust  Fund.
Adverse economic conditions,  either local, regional or national,  may limit the
amount  of rent  that can be  charged  for  rental  units,  and may  result in a
reduction in timely rent payments or a reduction in occupancy levels.  Occupancy
and rent levels may also be  affected  by  construction  of  additional  housing
units,  local  military  base  closings,  developments  at  local  colleges  and
universities and national,  regional and local politics,  including, in the case
of multifamily rental properties,  current or future rent stabilization and rent
control laws and agreements.  In addition,  the level of mortgage interest rates
may encourage  tenants in  multifamily  rental  properties to purchase  housing.
Furthermore,  tax credit and city,  state and federal housing subsidy or similar
programs may impose rent limitations and may adversely affect the ability of the
applicable  borrowers to increase rents to maintain such Mortgaged Properties in
proper  condition during periods of rapid inflation or declining market value of
such  Mortgaged  Properties.  In  addition,  such  programs  may  impose  income
restrictions on tenants, which may reduce the number of eligible tenants in such
Mortgaged  Properties  and result in a reduction in occupancy  rates  applicable
thereto.  Furthermore,  some eligible  tenants may not find any  differences  in
rents between such  subsidized  or supported  properties  and other  multifamily
rental  properties  in the same area to be a  sufficient  economic  incentive to
reside at a subsidized or supported property,  which may have fewer amenities or
otherwise be less attractive as a residence.  All of these conditions and events
may  increase  the  possibility  that a  borrower  may be  unable  to  meet  its
obligations under its Mortgage Loan.

     Multifamily   projects  are  part  of  a  market  that,   in  general,   is
characterized by low barriers to entry. Thus, a particular apartment market with
historically low vacancies could experience substantial new construction,  and a

                                       19
<PAGE>

resultant  oversupply of units,  in a relatively  short period of time.  Because
multifamily  apartment  units are typically  leased on a short-term  basis,  the
tenants who reside in a particular  project within such a market may easily move
to alternative projects with more desirable amenities or locations.

     Risks Associated with Mortgage Loans Secured by Retail Properties. Mortgage
Loans secured by retail  properties may constitute a material  consentration  of
the Mortgage Loans in a Trust Fund. Significant factors determining the value of
retail properties are the quality of the tenants as well as fundamental  aspects
of real estate such as location and market demographics. The correlation between
the success of tenant  businesses and property value is more direct with respect
to  retail  properties  than  other  types  of  commercial  property  because  a
significant  component of the total rent paid by retail tenants is often tied to
a percentage of gross sales.  Significant  tenants at a retail  property play an
important  part in generating  customer  traffic and making a retail  property a
desirable  location  for other  tenants at such  property.  Accordingly,  retail
properties may be adversely  affected if a significant  tenant ceases operations
at such  locations  (which may occur on account of a voluntary  decision  not to
renew a lease,  bankruptcy or insolvency of such tenant,  such tenant's  general
cessation of business  activities or for other  reasons).  In addition,  certain
tenants at retail  properties  may be entitled to terminate  their leases or pay
reduced rent if an anchor tenant ceases  operations  at such  property.  In such
cases,  there can be no assurance  that any such anchor tenants will continue to
occupy space in the related shopping centers.

     Shopping  centers,  in  general,  are  affected by the health of the retail
industry,  which is currently  undergoing a  consolidation  and is  experiencing
changes  due to  the  growing  market  share  of  "off-price"  retailing,  and a
particular  shopping  center may be  adversely  affected  by the  bankruptcy  or
decline in drawing power of an anchor tenant, the risk that an anchor tenant may
vacate  notwithstanding such tenant's continuing obligation to pay rent, a shift
in consumer demand due to demographic changes (for example, population decreases
or changes in average age or income) and/or changes in consumer  preference (for
example, to discount retailers).

     Unlike other  income  producing  properties,  retail  properties  also face
competition  from  sources  outside  a  given  real  estate  market.   Catalogue
retailers,  home  shopping  networks,  the  Internet,  telemarketing  and outlet
centers  all  compete  with more  traditional  retail  properties  for  consumer
dollars.  Continued growth of these alternative  retail outlets (which are often
characterized  by lower  operating  costs)  could  adversely  affect  the  rents
collectible  at the retail  properties  which secure  Mortgage  Loans in a Trust
Fund.

     Risks  Associated  with Mortgage Loans Secured by  Hospitality  Properties.
Mortgage  Loans  secured by  hospitality  properties  may  constitute a material
consentration of the Mortgage Loans in a Trust Fund. Various factors,  including
location,  quality  and  franchise  affiliation  (or lack  thereof),  affect the
economic  viability  of a hotel.  Adverse  economic  conditions,  either  local,
regional or national, may limit the amount that a consumer is willing to pay for
a room and may result in a reduction in occupancy  levels.  The  construction of
competing  hotels  or motels  can have  similar  effects.  Because  hotel  rooms
generally are rented for short periods of time, hotel properties tend to be more
sensitive  to  adverse  economic   conditions  and  competition  than  do  other
commercial properties.  Furthermore,  the financial strength and capabilities of
the owner and operator of a hotel may have a substantial  impact on such hotel's
quality of service and economic performance. Additionally, the hotel and lodging
industry is generally seasonal in nature and this seasonality can be expected to
cause periodic  fluctuations in room and other revenues,  occupancy levels, room
rates and operating expenses.

     In addition,  the  successful  operation of a  hospitality  property with a
franchise  affiliation  may depend in part upon the strength of the  franchisor,
the public perception of the franchise service mark and the continued  existence
of any franchise license agreement.  The  transferability of a franchise license
agreement may be restricted, and a lender or other person that acquires title to
a hotel  property  as a result of  foreclosure  may be unable to  succeed to the
borrower's  rights  under  the  franchise  license  agreement.   Moreover,   the
transferability  of a  hotel's  operating,  liquor  and  other  licenses  upon a
transfer of the hotel,  whether through  purchase or foreclosure,  is subject to
local law requirements and may not be transferable.

     Risks Associated with Mortgage Loans Secured by Office Buildings.  Mortgage
Loans secured by office buildings may constitute a material consentration of the
Mortgage Loans in a Trust Fund.  Significant  factors  determining  the value of
office  properties are the quality of the tenants in the building,  the physical
attributes  of the building in relation to competing  buildings and the strength
and  stability  of the market  area as a  desirable  business  location.  Office
properties  may be  adversely  affected by an economic  decline in the  business
operated by the  tenants.  


                                       20
<PAGE>

The risk of such an adverse  effect is  increased  if revenue is  dependent on a
single  tenant  or if there  is a  significant  concentration  of  tenants  in a
particular business or industry.

     Office  properties  are also  subject  to  competition  with  other  office
properties  in the same market.  Competition  is affected by a  property's  age,
condition,  design (e.g., floor sizes and layout),  access to transportation and
ability or  inability  to offer  certain  amenities  to its  tenants,  including
sophisticated   building   systems   (such  as  fiberoptic   cables,   satellite
communications or other base building technological features).

     The success of an office  property  also  depends on the local  economy.  A
company's  decision to locate office  headquarters in a given area, for example,
may be affected by such factors as labor cost and quality,  tax  environment and
quality  of life  issues  such as  schools  and  cultural  amenities.  A central
business district may have an economy which is markedly different from that of a
suburb.  The local economy and the financial  condition of the owner will impact
on an office property's ability to attract stable tenants on a consistent basis.
In addition,  the cost of refitting  office space for a new tenant is often more
costly than for other property types.

     Risks  Associated  with  Mortgage  Loans  Secured by Industrial & Mixed-Use
Facilities.  Mortgage Loans secured by industrial  and mixed-use  facilities may
constitute  a material  consentration  of the  Mortgage  Loans in a Trust  Fund.
Significant  factors  determining  the value of  industrial  properties  are the
quality of tenants,  building  design and  adaptability  and the location of the
property. Concerns about the quality of tenants, particularly major tenants, are
similar in both office properties and industrial properties, although industrial
properties  are more  frequently  dependent  on a single  tenant.  In  addition,
properties  used for many  industrial  purposes are more prone to  environmental
concerns than other property types.

     Aspects of  building  site design and  adaptability  affect the value of an
industrial property.  Site  characteristics  which are valuable to an industrial
property include clear heights, column spacing,  zoning restrictions,  number of
bays  and  bay  depths,   divisibility,   truck   turning   radius  and  overall
functionality  and   accessibility.   Location  is  also  important  because  an
industrial  property  requires the  availability of labor sources,  proximity to
supply sources and customers and accessibility to rail lines, major roadways and
other distribution channels.

     Industrial  properties  may be  adversely  affected  by reduced  demand for
industrial space  occasioned by a decline in a particular  industry segment (for
example, a decline in defense spending),  and a particular  industrial  property
that  suited  the needs of its  original  tenant  may be  difficult  to relet to
another  tenant  or  may  become   functionally   obsolete   relative  to  newer
properties.]

     Risks  Associated  with Mortgage  Loans Secured by  Residential  Healthcare
Facilities.  Mortgage  Loans secured by  residential  healthcare  facilities may
constitute  a material  consentration  of the  Mortgage  Loans in a Trust  Fund.
Mortgage  Loans  secured by liens on  residential  health care  facilities  pose
additional  risks not  associated  with loans secured by liens on other types of
income-producing  properties.  Providers of  long-term  nursing  care,  assisted
living and other  medical  services  are  subject to federal and state laws that
relate to the adequacy of medical care,  distribution of  pharmaceuticals,  rate
setting,  equipment,  personnel,  operating policies and additions to facilities
and services and, to the extent  dependent on patients whose fees are reimbursed
by private insurers, to the reimbursement policies of such insurers. The failure
of any of such borrowers to maintain or renew any required license or regulatory
approval could prevent it from continuing operations at a Mortgaged Property (in
which case no revenues  would be received from such property or portion  thereof
requiring licensing) or, if applicable,  bar it from participation in government
reimbursement programs.  Furthermore, in the event of foreclosure,  there can be
no assurance that the Trustee or any other purchaser at a foreclosure sale would
be entitled to the rights  under such  licenses and such party may have to apply
in its own  right  for such a  license.  There  can be no  assurance  that a new
license  could be  obtained  or that the  related  Mortgaged  Property  would be
adaptable to other uses.  To the extent any nursing home  receives a significant
portion  of its  revenues  from  government  reimbursement  programs,  primarily
Medicaid and Medicare,  such revenue may be subject to statutory and  regulatory
changes,   retroactive  rate   adjustments,   administrative   rulings,   policy
interpretations,   delays  by  fiscal   intermediaries  and  government  funding
restrictions.  Moreover,  governmental  payors  have  employed  cost-containment
measures that limit payments to health care  providers,  and there are currently
under  consideration  various proposals in the United States Congress that could
materially  change  or  curtail  those  payments.  Accordingly,  there can be no
assurance that payments  under  government  reimbursement  programs will, in the
future,  be  sufficient  to fully  reimburse  the  cost of  caring  for  program
beneficiaries.  If not, net operating  income of the Mortgaged  Properties  that
receive substantial revenues from those sources, and consequently the


                                       21
<PAGE>

ability of the related borrowers to meet their Mortgage Loan obligations,  could
be adversely affected.  Under applicable federal and state laws and regulations,
including  those that govern Medicare and Medicaid  programs,  only the provider
who actually  furnished  the related  medical  goods and services may sue for or
enforce its rights to reimbursement.  Accordingly,  in the event of foreclosure,
none of the Trustee,  the Master Servicer,  the Special Servicer or a subsequent
lessee or operator of the  property  would  generally be entitled to obtain from
federal or state governments any outstanding  reimbursement payments relating to
services furnished at the respective properties prior to such foreclosure.

     Risk  Associated  with  Mortgage  Loans  Secured  by  Health   Care-Related
Properties. The Mortgaged Properties may include Senior Housing, Assisted Living
Facilities,  Skilled  Nursing  Facilities and Acute Care  Facilities (any of the
foregoing, "Health Care-Related Facilities"). "Senior Housing" generally consist
of facilities with respect to which the residents are  ambulatory,  handle their
own affairs and typically  are couples whose  children have left the home and at
which  the  accommodations   are  usually  apartment  style.   "Assisted  Living
Facilities"  are  typically  single or double  room  occupancy,  dormitory-style
housing  facilities which provide food service,  cleaning and some personal care
and with  respect to which the tenants are able to medicate  themselves  but may
require  assistance with certain daily routines.  "Skilled  Nursing  Facilities"
provide  services to post trauma and frail  residents with limited  mobility who
require extensive medical treatment.  "Acute Care Facilities"  generally consist
of hospital  and other  facilities  providing  short-term,  acute  medical  care
services.

     Certain types of Health  Care-Related  Properties,  particularly Acute Care
Facilities,  Skilled  Nursing  Facilities and some Assisted  Living  Facilities,
typically  receive a  substantial  portion  of their  revenues  from  government
reimbursement programs,  primarily Medicaid and Medicare.  Medicaid and Medicare
are subject to statutory and regulatory  changes,  retroactive rate adjustments,
administrative rulings, policy interpretations,  delays by fiscal intermediaries
and government funding restrictions. Moreover, governmental payors have employed
cost-containment  measures  that limit  payments to health care  providers,  and
there exist various proposals for national health care reform that could further
limit those payments. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that payments under
government  reimbursement  programs will, in the future,  be sufficient to fully
reimburse  the cost of caring for program  beneficiaries.  If such  payments are
insufficient,  net operating income of those Health Care-Related Facilities that
receive revenues from those sources, and consequently the ability of the related
borrowers to meet their  obligations  under any Mortgage Loans secured  thereby,
could be adversely affected.

     Moreover,  Health Care-Related  Facilities are generally subject to federal
and state laws that relate to the  adequacy  of medical  care,  distribution  of
pharmaceuticals,  rate setting,  equipment,  personnel,  operating  policies and
additions to facilities and services. In addition, facilities where such care or
other  medical  services  are  provided  are subject to periodic  inspection  by
governmental   authorities  to  determine   compliance  with  various  standards
necessary to continued licensing under state law and continued  participation in
the Medicaid and Medicare reimbursement  programs.  Providers of assisted living
services are also subject to state licensing requirements in certain states. The
failure of an operator to maintain or renew any required  license or  regulatory
approval could prevent it from  continuing  operations at a Health  Care-Related
Facility  or,  if   applicable,   bar  it  from   participation   in  government
reimbursement programs. Furthermore, under applicable federal and state laws and
regulations, Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements are generally not permitted to
be made to any person other than the provider who actually furnished the related
medical goods and services.  Accordingly,  in the event of foreclosure,  none of
the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or a subsequent lessee or
operator of any Health Care-Related  Facility securing a defaulted Mortgage Loan
(a "Health  Care-Related  Mortgaged  Property")  would  generally be entitled to
obtain from federal or state governments any outstanding  reimbursement payments
relating to services  furnished at such property prior to such foreclosure.  Any
of the  aforementioned  events may  adversely  affect the ability of the related
borrowers to meet their Mortgage Loan obligations.

     Government  regulation  applying  specifically  to Acute  Care  Facilities,
Skilled  Nursing  Facilities  and certain  types of Assisted  Living  Facilities
includes health planning legislation, enacted by most states, intended, at least
in part,  to regulate  the supply of nursing  beds.  The most  common  method of
control is the requirement  that a state authority first make a determination of
need,  evidenced  by its issuance of a  Certificate  of Need  ("CON"),  before a
long-term  care provider can  establish a new facility,  add beds to an existing
facility or, in some states,  take certain other  actions (for example,  acquire
major  medical  equipment,  make  major  capital  expenditures,   add  services,
refinance  long-term  debt,  or transfer  ownership of a facility).  States also
regulate nursing bed supply in other ways. For example, some states have imposed
moratoria on the licensing of new beds, or on the  certification of new 


                                       22
<PAGE>

Medicaid beds, or have discouraged the construction of new nursing facilities by
limiting Medicaid  reimbursements  allocable to the cost of new construction and
equipment.  In general, a CON is site specific and operator specific;  it cannot
be transferred  from one site to another,  or to another  operator,  without the
approval  of the  appropriate  state  agency.  Accordingly,  if a Mortgage  Loan
secured  by a lien  on  such  a  Health  Care-Related  Mortgaged  Property  were
foreclosed upon, the purchaser at foreclosure  might be required to obtain a new
CON or an  appropriate  exemption.  In addition,  compliance by a purchaser with
applicable  regulations may in any case require the engagement of a new operator
and  the  issuance  of a new  operating  license.  Upon a  foreclosure,  a state
regulatory  agency may be willing to expedite any necessary  review and approval
process to avoid interruption of care to a facility's  residents,  but there can
be no assurance that any will do so or that any necessary  licenses or approvals
will be issued.

     Further government regulation applicable to Health Care-Related  Facilities
is found in the form of federal and state "fraud and abuse" laws that  generally
prohibit  payment or  fee-splitting  arrangements  between health care providers
that are  designed to induce or  encourage  the  referral of patients to, or the
recommendation  of, a  particular  provider  for medical  products or  services.
Violation  of these  restrictions  can result in license  revocation,  civil and
criminal  penalties,  and exclusion from  participation  in Medicare or Medicaid
programs.  The state law restrictions in this area vary  considerably from state
to state.  Moreover,  the federal anti-kickback law includes broad language that
potentially  could be  applied  to a wide range of  referral  arrangements,  and
regulations designed to create "safe harbors" under the law provide only limited
guidance.  Accordingly,  there  can be no  assurance  that  such  laws  will  be
interpreted in a manner consistent with the practices of the owners or operators
of the Health Care-Related Mortgaged Properties that are subject to such laws.

     The operators of Health Care-Related  Facilities are likely to compete on a
loca1 and regional basis with others that operate  similar  facilities,  some of
which competitors may be better  capitalized,  may offer services not offered by
such  operators,  or may be  owned by  non-profit  organizations  or  government
agencies  supported by endowments,  charitable  contributions,  tax revenues and
other sources not available to such  operators.  The  successful  operation of a
Health Care-Related  Facility will generally depend upon the number of competing
facilities in the local  market,  as well as upon other factors such as its age,
appearance,  reputation and  management,  the types of services it provides and,
where  applicable,  the quality of care and the cost of that care. The inability
of a Health Care-Related  Mortgaged Property to flourish in a competitive market
may  increase  the  likelihood  of  foreclosure  on the related  Mortgage  Loan,
possibly  affecting  the yield on one or more  classes of the related  series of
Offered Certificates.

     Risks  Associated  with  Mortgage  Loans  Secured by Warehouse  and Storage
Facilities.  Mortgage Loans secured by warehouse and self storage facilities may
constitute a material  consentration of the Mortgage Loans in a Trust Fund. Self
storage  facilities  are part of a market that  contains  low barriers to entry.
Increased  competition among self storage facilities may reduce income available
to repay Mortgage Loans secured by self storage  facility.  Furthermore,  due to
the privacy considerations  applicable to self storage facilities,  may increase
environmental  risks.  See  "Risk   Factors--Environmental  Law  Considerations"
herein.

MANAGEMENT RISKS

     Each Mortgaged  Property is managed by a property  manager (which generally
is an affiliate  of the  borrower) or by the  borrower  itself.  The  successful
operation of a real estate project is largely  dependent on the  performance and
viability of the management of such project. The property manager is responsible
for  responding to changes in the local market,  planning and  implementing  the
rental structure,  including  establishing  levels of rent payments and advising
the borrowers so that maintenance and capital improvements can be carried out in
a timely  fashion.  There  is no  assurance  regarding  the  performance  of any
operators,  leasing agents and/or  managers or persons who may become  operators
and/or  managers upon the expiration or termination of management  agreements or
following  any  default or  foreclosure  under a  Mortgage  Loan.  In  addition,
generally  the property  managers are  operating  companies  and unlike  limited
purpose  entities,   may  not  be  restricted  from  incurring  debt  and  other
liabilities  in the ordinary  course of business or  otherwise.  There can be no
assurance  that  the  property  managers  will at all  times  be in a  financial
condition to continue to fulfill  their  management  responsibilities  under the
related management agreements throughout the terms thereof.

BALLOON PAYMENTS ON MORTGAGE LOANS; HEIGHTENED RISK OF BORROWER DEFAULT

     Certain of the  Mortgage  Loans  included  in a Trust Fund may not be fully
amortizing  (or may not amortize at all) over their terms to maturity and, thus,
will require substantial principal payments (that is, balloon payments) at their

                                       23
<PAGE>

stated  maturity.  Mortgage  Loans of this type involve a greater degree of risk
than  self-amortizing  loans because the ability of a borrower to make a balloon
payment  typically  will depend upon its ability  either to fully  refinance the
loan or to sell the related  Mortgaged  Property at a price sufficient to permit
the  borrower  to make  the  balloon  payment.  The  ability  of a  borrower  to
accomplish  either of these  goals  will be  affected  by a number  of  factors,
including the value of the related  Mortgaged  Property,  the level of available
mortgage rates at the time of sale or refinancing,  the borrower's equity in the
related Mortgaged Property, the financial condition and operating history of the
borrower and therelated  Mortgaged  Property,  tax laws, rent control laws (with
respect to certain residential  properties),  Medicaidand Medicare reimbursement
rates (with respect to hospitals and nursing homes), prevailing general economic
conditions  and the  availability  of credit for loans  secured by commercial or
multifamily, as the case may be, real properties generally.

     If and to the extent  specified in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  in
order to maximize recoveries on defaulted Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer or
a Special Servicer will be permitted  (within  prescribed  limits) to extend and
modify  Mortgage  Loans that are in default or as to which a payment  default is
imminent.  While a Master Servicer  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 any such extension or modification  will in fact increase the present value
of receipts  from or proceeds of the  affected  Mortgage  Loans.  See "Yield and
Maturity  Considerations--Other  Factors Affecting Yield,  Weighted Average Life
and Maturity --Balloon Payments; Extensions of Maturity."

LEASES AND RENTS SERVING AS SECURITY FOR MORTGAGE LOANS POSE SPECIAL RISKS

     The Mortgage  Loans included in any Trust Fund typically will be secured by
an assignment of leases and rents pursuant to which the borrower  assigns to the
lender its right, title and interest as landlord under the leases of the related
Mortgaged  Property,  and the income derived therefrom,  as further security for
the related  Mortgage  Loan,  while  retaining a license to collect rents for so
long as there is no default.  If the borrower  defaults,  the license terminates
and the lender is entitled to collect  rents.  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  borrower,  the  lender's  ability  to  collect  the rents may be  adversely
affected. See "Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage Loans--Leases and Rents."

DELINQUENT MORTGAGE LOANS

     If so provided in the related Prospectus  Supplement,  the Trust Fund for a
particular series of Certificates may include Mortgage Loans that are delinquent
as of the date they are  deposited  in the Trust Fund.  A Mortgage  Loan will be
considered "delinquent" if it is thirty (30) days or more past its most recently
contractual  scheduled  payment date in payment of all amounts due  according to
its terms.  In any event,  at the time of its creation,  the Trust Fund will not
include  delinquent  loans  which by  principal  amount are more than 20% of the
aggregate  principal  amount  of all  Mortgage  Loans in the Trust  Fund.  If so
specified in the related Prospectus  Supplement,  the servicing of such Mortgage
Loans will be performed by a Special  Servicer.  Credit  Support  provided  with
respect to a particular  series of Certificates may not cover all losses related
to such delinquent  Mortgage Loans,  and investors should consider the risk that
the inclusion of such Mortgage Loans in the Trust Fund may adversely  affect the
rate of defaults and  prepayments on the Mortgage Loans in theTrust Fund and the
yield on the Offered  Certificates of such series. See "Description of the Trust
Funds--Mortgage Loans-General."

ENVIRONMENTAL  LIABILITY MAY AFFECT LIEN ON MORTGAGED PROPERTY AND EXPOSE LENDER
TO COSTS

     Under certain laws,  contamination of real 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 an existing mortgage lien on 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  at a  property,  if  agents  or
employees of the lender have become  sufficiently  involved in the operations of
the borrower,  regardless of whether or not the  environmental  damage or threat
was caused by the borrower. A lender also risks such liability on foreclosure of
the  mortgage.  See  "Certain  Legal  Aspects of  Mortgage  Loans--Environmental
Considerations." If a Trust Fund


                                       24
<PAGE>

includes Mortgage Loans and the related Prospectus Supplement does not otherwise
specify,  the related Pooling Agreement will contain provisions generally to the
effect that the Master  Servicer,  acting on behalf of the Trust  Fund,  may not
acquire title to a Mortgaged  Property or assume control of its operation unless
the Master  Servicer,  based upon a report  prepared  by a person who  regularly
conducts  environmental site assessments,  has made the determination that it is
appropriate  to  do  so,  as  described   under   "Description  of  the  Pooling
Agreements--Realization  Upon Defaulted  Mortgage  Loans." These  provisions are
designed to reduce substantially the risk of liability for costs associated with
remediation of of hazardous substances, but there can be no assurance in a given
case that those risks can be eliminated entirely.

CREDIT  SUPPORT  LIMITATIONS--MAY  NOT  COVER  ALL  RISKS  OR  FULL  PAYMENT  ON
CERTIFICATES

     The Prospectus  Supplement for the Offered Certificates of each series will
describe any Credit Support provided with respect thereto. 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 fully repaid.  As a result,  the impact of
losses and shortfalls  experienced  with respect to the Mortgage 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,  holders of Certificates of one series will be subject to the risk
that such  Credit  Support  will be  exhausted  by the claims of the  holders of
Certificates of one or more other series.

     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 and losses on the underlying  Mortgage Assets and other
factors.  There can be,  however,  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."

CERTAIN FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING REMIC RESIDUAL CERTIFICATES

     Holders of REMIC Residual  Certificates will be required to report on their
federal  income  tax  returns  as  ordinary  income  their pro rata share of the
taxable income of the REMIC, regardless of the amount or timing of their receipt
of  cash   payments,   as  described   under   "Material   Federal   Income  Tax
Consequences--REMICs."  Accordingly,  under  certain  circumstances,  holders of
Offered  Certificates  that  constitute  REMIC  Residual  Certificates  may have
taxable income and tax liabilities arising from such investment during a taxable
year in excess of the cash received  during such period.  The  requirement  that
holders  of REMIC  Residual  Certificates  report  their  pro rata  share of the
taxable  income and net loss of the REMIC will  continue  until the  Certificate
Balances of all classes of  Certificates of the related series have been reduced
to zero, even though holders of REMIC Residual  Certificates  have received full
payment of their  stated  interest  and  principal.  A portion  (or,  in certain
circumstances,  all) of such  Certificateholder's  share  of the  REMIC  taxable
income may be treated as "excess  inclusion"  income to such  holder,  which (i)
generally  will not be subject to offset by losses from other  activities,  (ii)
for a tax-exempt  holder,  will be treated as unrelated  business taxable income
and (iii) for a foreign holder,  will not qualify for exemption from withholding
tax.  Individual holders of REMIC Residual  Certificates may be limited in their
ability to deduct  servicing fees and other expenses of the REMIC.  In addition,
REMIC Residual  Certificates  are subject to certain  restrictions  on transfer.
Because of the special tax treatment of REMIC Residual Certificates, the taxable
income arising in a given year on a REMIC Residual Certificate will not be equal
to the taxable income associated with investment in a corporate bond or stripped
instrument  having  similar  cash  flow   characteristics   and  pre-tax  yield.
Therefore,   the  after-tax  yield  on  a  REMIC  Residual  Certificate  may  be
significantly  less than that of a corporate bond or stripped  instrument having
similar cash flow characteristics.



                                       25

ERISA CONSIDERATIONS--COVERED INVESTORS MAY EXPERIENCE LIABILITY

     Generally,  ERISA applies to investments made by employee benefit plans and
transactions  involving  the  assets of such  plans.  Due to the  complexity  of
regulations  that 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. See "ERISA Considerations."

BOOK-ENTRY  REGISTRATION OF CERTIFICATES  AFFECTS  OWNERSHIP OF CERTIFICATES AND
RECEIPT OF PAYMENT

     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.   Each  class  of  Book-Entry   Certificates   will  be  initially
represented by one or more Certificates  registered in the name of a nominee for
DTC. As a result,  unless and until  corresponding  Definitive  Certificates are
issued,  the  Certificate  Owners  with  respect  to  any  class  of  Book-Entry
Certificates  will be able to  exercise  the rights of  Certificateholders  only
indirectly through DTC and its participating organizations ("Participants").  In
addition,  the  access  of  Certificate  Owners  to  information  regarding  the
Book-Entry  Certificates in which they hold interests may be limited.  The means
by  which  notices  and  other   communications  are  conveyed  by  DTC  to  its
Participants,   and  directly  and  indirectly   through  such  Participants  to
Certificate  Owners, will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any
statutory  or  regulatory  requirements  as may be in effect  from time to time.
Furthermore,  as described herein,  Certificate  Owners may experience delays in
the receipt of payments on the Book-Entry  Certificates,  and the ability of any
Certificate  Owner to pledge or  otherwise  take  actions  with  respect  to its
interest  in the  Book-Entry  Certificates  may be limited  due to the lack of a
physical  certificate   evidencing  such  interest.   See  "Description  of  the
Certificates--Book-Entry Registration and Definitive Certificates."

                         DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUST FUNDS

GENERAL

     The  primary  assets of each  Trust Fund will  consist  of (i)  multifamily
and/or  commercial   mortgage  loans  (the  "Mortgage  Loans"),   (ii)  mortgage
participations,  pass-through  certificates or other mortgage-backed  securities
such as mortgage-backed  securities that are similar to a series of Certificates
("MBS") that  evidence  interests  in, or that are secured by pledges of, one or
more of various types of  multifamily  or commercial  mortgage  loans or (iii) a
combination of Mortgage Loans and MBS (collectively,  "Mortgage  Assets").  Each
Trust Fund will be established by Merrill Lynch  Mortgage  Investors,  Inc. (the
"Depositor").  Each  Mortgage  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 (a "Mortgage Asset Seller"), which prior
holder may or may not be the  originator  of such Mortgage Loan or the issuer of
such MBS and may be an affiliate of the Depositor.  The Mortgage Assets will not
be guaranteed or insured by the  Depositor or any of its  affiliates  or, unless
otherwise  provided in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  by any governmental
agency or instrumentality or by any other person. The discussion below under the
heading "--Mortgage Loans," unless otherwise noted,  applies equally to mortgage
loans underlying any MBS included in a particular Trust Fund.

MORTGAGE LOANS

     General.  The Mortgage  Loans will be evidenced  by  promissory  notes (the
"Mortgage  Notes")  secured by  mortgages,  deeds of trust or  similar  security
instruments  (the  "Mortgages")  that create liens on properties (the "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 or other residential structures  ("Multifamily  Properties")
or (ii) retail stores,  hotels or motels,  office buildings,  industrial plants,
nursing homes, mobile home parks, self-storage facilities, or mixed use or other
types of income-producing properties ("Commercial Properties").  The Multifamily
Properties  may include mixed  commercial  and  residential  structures  and may
include apartment buildings owned by private  cooperative  housing  corporations
("Cooperatives").  If so specified in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  each
Mortgage will create a first priority mortgage lien on a Mortgaged  Property.  A
Mortgage  may  create a lien on a  borrower's  leasehold  estate in a  property;
however, if so specified in the related Prospectus  Supplement,  the term of any
such  leasehold will exceed the term of the Mortgage Note by at least two years.
Each  Mortgage  Loan will have been  originated  by a person (the  "Originator")
other than the Depositor.



                                       26
<PAGE>

     If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, Mortgage Assets for a
series of Certificates  may include  Mortgage Loans made on the security of real
estate  projects  under  construction.  In that  case,  the  related  Prospectus
Supplement will describe the procedures and timing for making disbursements from
construction  reserve  funds as portions of the related real estate  project are
completed.  In  addition,  the  Mortgage  Assets  for  a  particular  series  of
Certificates may include Mortgage Loans that are delinquent or non-performing as
of the date such Certificates are issued.  In that case, the related  Prospectus
Supplement will set forth, as to each such Mortgage Loan, available  information
as to the  period  of  such  delinquency  or  non-performance,  any  forbearance
arrangement then in effect,  the condition of the related Mortgaged Property and
the ability of the Mortgaged Property to generate income to service the mortgage
debt.

     Default  and  Loss  Considerations  with  Respect  to the  Mortgage  Loans.
Mortgage loans secured by liens on income-producing properties are substantially
different from loans made on the security of owner-occupied single-family homes.
The  repayment  of a loan secured by a lien on an  income-producing  property is
typically dependent upon the successful operation of such property (that is, its
ability  to  generate  income).  Moreover,  some  or all of the  Mortgage  Loans
included in a particular Trust Fund may be non-recourse loans, which means that,
absent  special  facts,  recourse in the case of default  will be limited to the
Mortgaged  Property and such other  assets,  if any, that were pledged to secure
repayment of the Mortgage Loan.

     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. As more fully set forth in the related Prospectus  Supplement,  the
"Debt Service  Coverage Ratio" of a Mortgage Loan at any given time is the ratio
of (i)  the  Net  Operating  Income  of the  related  Mortgaged  Property  for a
twelve-month  period to (ii) the annualized  scheduled  payments on the Mortgage
Loan and on any other loan that is secured by a lien on the  Mortgaged  Property
prior  to the lien of the  related  Mortgage.  As more  fully  set  forth in the
related  Prospectus  Supplement,  "Net Operating  Income"  means,  for any given
period,  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 (including the related Mortgage Loan) secured by liens on the Mortgaged
Property.  The Net Operating Income of a Mortgaged  Property will fluctuate over
time and may or may not be  sufficient  to cover  debt  service  on the  related
Mortgage Loan at any given time. As the primary source of the operating revenues
of  a  non-owner  occupied   income-producing   property,   rental  income  (and
maintenance payments from  tenant-stockholders of a Cooperative) may be affected
by the condition of the  applicable  real estate market and/or area economy.  In
addition,  properties typically leased,  occupied or used on a short-term basis,
such  as  certain  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 typically leased for
longer  periods,  such  as  warehouses,  retail  stores,  office  buildings  and
industrial  plants.  Commercial  Properties may be owner-occupied or leased to a
single tenant.  Thus, the Net Operating Income of such a Mortgaged  Property may
depend  substantially  on the financial  condition of the borrower or the single
tenant,  and Mortgage Loans secured by liens on such properties may pose greater
risks than loans secured by liens on Multifamily  Properties or on  multi-tenant
Commercial Properties.

     Increases in  operating  expenses  due to the general  economic  climate or
economic  conditions  in a locality or industry  segment,  such as  increases in
interest  rates,  real  estate tax rates,  energy  costs,  labor costs and other
operating  expenses,  and/or to changes in governmental  rules,  regulations and
fiscal policies,  may also affect the risk of default on a 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
borrower/landlord,  is  responsible  for  payment of  operating  expenses  ("Net
Leases"). However, the existence of such "net of expense" provisions will result
in stable Net Operating Income to the borrower/landlord  only to the extent that
the lessee is able to absorb  operating  expense  increases while  continuing to
make rent payments.

     Lenders  also  look to the  Loan-to-Value  Ratio  of a  mortgage  loan as a
measure of risk of loss if a property must be liquidated following a default. As
more fully set forth in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  the "Loan-to-Value
Ratio"  of a  Mortgage  Loan at any  given  time is the  ratio  (expressed  as a
percentage) of (i) the then outstanding  principal  balance of the Mortgage Loan
and the  outstanding  principal  balance  of any loan  secured  by a lien on the
related Mortgaged  Property prior to the lien of the related  Mortgage,  to (ii)
the Value of such Mortgaged Property.  The "Value" of a Mortgaged  Property,  is
generally  its fair market  value  determined  in an  appraisal  obtained by the
originator at the origination of such loan. The lower the  Loan-to-Value  Ratio,
the greater the percentage of the 


                                       27
<PAGE>

borrower's  equity in a  Mortgaged  Property,  and thus the  greater the cushion
provided to the lender against loss on liquidation following a default.

     Loan-to-Value Ratios will not necessarily constitute an accurate measure of
the risk of liquidation loss in a pool of Mortgage Loans. For example, 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 determined at loan  origination,  and
will  likely  continue  to  fluctuate  from time to time based  upon  changes in
economic conditions and the real estate market.  Moreover, even when current, an
appraisal is not necessarily a reliable  estimate of value.  Appraised values of
income-producing  properties are generally 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 can present
analytical  difficulties.  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  provide  significantly  different  results,  an  accurate
determination of value and, correspondingly,  a reliable analysis of default and
loss risks, is even more difficult.

     While  the  Depositor  believes  that  the  foregoing   considerations  are
important  factors  that  generally   distinguish  loans  secured  by  liens  on
income-producing  real  estate  from  single-family  mortgage  loans there is no
assurance that all of such factors will in fact have been  prudently  considered
by the  Originators of the Mortgage  Loans,  or that, for a particular  Mortgage
Loan, they are complete or relevant.  See "Risk  Factors--Risks  Associated with
Certain Mortgage Loans and Income Producing Properties" and "--Balloon Payments;
Borrower Default."

     Payment  Provisions of the Mortgage  Loans.  If so specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement, all of the Mortgage Loans will have had original terms to
maturity of not more than 40 years and will  provide for  scheduled  payments of
principal,  interest or both,  to be made on specified  dates ("Due Dates") that
occur monthly,  quarterly or semi-annually.  A Mortgage Loan (i) may provide 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 at the
borrower's election from an adjustable to a fixed Mortgage Rate, or from a fixed
to an adjustable  Mortgage  Rate,(ii) may provide for level payments to maturity
or for  payments  that  adjust from time to time to  accommodate  changes in the
Mortgage  Rate or to reflect the  occurrence of certain  events,  and may permit
negative amortization,  (iii) may be fully amortizing over its term to maturity,
or may provide for little or no  amortization  over its term and thus  require a
balloon  payment on its stated maturity date, and (iv) may contain a prohibition
on prepayment (the period of such prohibition,  a "Lock-out Period" and its date
of expiration,  a "Lock-out Expiration 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.  A
Mortgage  Loan may also contain a provision  that entitles the lender to a share
of profits realized from the operation or disposition of the Mortgaged  Property
(an "Equity Participation"),  as described in the related Prospectus Supplement.
If holders of any class or classes of Offered  Certificates  of a series will be
entitled to all or a portion of an Equity Participation,  the related Prospectus
Supplement will describe the Equity  Participation  and the method or methods by
which distributions in respect thereof will be made to such holders.

     Mortgage  Loan  Information  in  Prospectus  Supplements.  Each  Prospectus
Supplement  will contain  certain  information  pertaining to the Mortgage Loans
which will generally be current as of a date specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement and which,  to the extent then applicable and  specifically  known to
the  Depositor,  will  include  the  following:  (i) the  aggregate  outstanding
principal balance and the largest,  smallest and average  outstanding  principal
balance of the Mortgage  Loans,  (ii) the type or types of property that provide
security for repayment of the Mortgage  Loans,  (iii) the original and remaining
terms to maturity of the  Mortgage  Loans,  and the  seasoning  of the  Mortgage
Loans,  (iv) the earliest  and latest  origination  date and  maturity  date and
weighted average original and remaining terms to maturity of the Mortgage Loans,
(v) the original  Loan-to-Value  Ratios 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  geographic   distribution  of  the  Mortgaged
Properties on a  state-by-state  basis,  (viii)  information with respect to the
prepayment  provisions,  if any, of the  Mortgage  Loans,  (ix) with  respect to
Mortgage  Loans with  adjustable  Mortgage  Rates  ("ARM  Loans"),  the index or
indices upon which such adjustments are based,  the adjustment  dates, the range
of gross  margins  and the  weighted  average  gross  margin,  and any limits on
Mortgage Rate 


                                       28
<PAGE>

adjustments at the time of any adjustment and over the life of the ARM Loan, (x)
Debt Service  Coverage  Ratios either at origination or as of a more recent date
(or both) and (xi)  information  regarding  the payment  characteristics  of the
Mortgage  Loans,   including  without   limitation  balloon  payment  and  other
amortization provisions. In appropriate cases, the related Prospectus Supplement
will also contain certain  information  available to the Depositor that pertains
to the  provisions  of  leases  and  the  nature  of  tenants  of the  Mortgaged
Properties.  If the  Depositor is unable to tabulate  the  specific  information
described  above at the time  Offered  Certificates  of a series  are  initially
offered, more general information of the nature described above will be provided
in the related Prospectus Supplement, and specific information will be set forth
in a report which will be available to  purchasers of those  Certificates  at or
before  the  initial  issuance  thereof  and will be filed as part of a  Current
Report  on Form 8-K with the  Commission  within  fifteen  days  following  such
issuance.

MBS

     MBS may  include  (i) private  (that is, not  guaranteed  or insured by the
United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof) mortgage participations,
mortgage pass-through  certificates or other mortgage-backed  securities such as
mortgage-backed  securities that are similar to a series of Certificates or (ii)
certificates  insured or guaranteed by FHLMC, FNMA, GNMA or FAMC,  provided that
each MBS will  evidence  an  interest  in, or will be  secured  by a pledge  of,
mortgage loans that conform to the  descriptions of the Mortgage Loans contained
herein.

     Any MBS will have been issued  pursuant to a  participation  and  servicing
agreement, a pooling and servicing agreement,  an indenture or similar agreement
(an "MBS  Agreement").  The  issuer  (the "MBS  Issuer")  of the MBS  and/or the
servicer (the "MBS Servicer") of the underlying mortgage loans will have entered
into the MBS Agreement,  generally with a trustee (the "MBS Trustee") or, in the
alternative, with the original purchaser or purchasers of the MBS.

     The MBS may have been issued in one or more  classes  with  characteristics
similar to the  classes  of  Certificates  described  herein.  Distributions  in
respect of the MBS will be made by the MBS  Servicer  or the MBS  Trustee on the
dates specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  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.

     Reserve  funds,  subordination  or other  credit  support  similar  to that
described for the  Certificates  under  "Description of Credit Support" may have
been provided with respect to the MBS. The type,  characteristics  and amount of
such credit support,  if any, will be a function of the  characteristics  of the
underlying  mortgage  loans  and  other  factors  and  generally  will have been
established on the basis of the  requirements of any Rating Agency that may have
assigned a rating to the MBS, or by the initial purchasers of the MBS.

     The  Prospectus  Supplement  for a series  of  Certificates  that  evidence
interests  in MBS will  specify,  to the  extent  available,  (i) the  aggregate
approximate  initial and outstanding  principal amount 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) the  pass-through or bond rate of the
MBS or the formula for determining such rates, (iv) the payment  characteristics
of the MBS, (v) the MBS Issuer,  MBS Servicer  and MBS Trustee,  as  applicable,
(vi) a description of the credit support,  if any, (vii) the circumstances under
which the related  underlying  mortgage  loans,  or the MBS  themselves,  may be
purchased prior to their maturity,  (viii) the terms on which mortgage loans may
be substituted for those originally  underlying the MBS, (ix) the servicing fees
payable under the MBS Agreement,  (x) to the extent  available to the Depositor,
the type of information in respect of the  underlying  mortgage loans  described
under "--Mortgage  Loans--Mortgage  Loan Information in Prospectus  Supplements"
and (xi) the characteristics of any cash flow agreements that relate to the MBS.

     To the extent  required under the  securities  laws, MBS included among the
assets of a Trust Fund will (i) either have been registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended,  or be eligible for resale under Rule 144(k) thereunder
and (ii) have been acquired in a bona fide secondary market  transaction and not
from the issuer or an affiliate.

CERTIFICATE ACCOUNTS

     Each  Trust  Fund will  include  one or more  accounts  (collectively,  the
"Certificate   Account")   established   and   maintained   on   behalf  of  the
Certificateholders  into which the person or persons  designated  in the related
Prospectus


                                       29
<PAGE>

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. A Certificate
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.

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 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 or reserve fund, or by a
combination  thereof (any such coverage with respect to the  Certificates of any
series, "Credit Support").  The amount and types of Credit Support, the identity
of the entity providing it (if applicable) and related  information with respect
to each  type of Credit  Support,  if any,  will be set forth in the  Prospectus
Supplement   for  the   Offered   Certificates   of  each   series.   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  interest  rate  exchange
agreements,  interest rate cap or floor agreements, currency exchange agreements
or similar  agreements  designed  to reduce  the  effects  of  interest  rate or
currency  exchange  rate  fluctuations  on the  Mortgage  Assets  on one or more
classes of Certificates.  The principal terms of any such guaranteed  investment
contract or other agreement (any such agreement,  a "Cash Flow Agreement"),  and
the  identity  of the Cash Flow  Agreement  obligor,  will be  described  in the
related Prospectus Supplement.

PRE-FUNDING

     If so  provided  in the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,  a Trust Fund may
include  amounts on deposit in a separate  account (the  "Pre-Funding  Account")
which  amounts  will not exceed 25% of the pool  balance of the Trust Fund as of
the Cut-off Date.  Amounts on deposit in the Pre-Funding  Account may be used by
the Trust Fund to acquire additional Mortgage Assets,  which additional Mortgage
Assets will be selected  using  criteria  that is  substantially  similar to the
criteria  used to select the Mortgage  Assets  included in the Trust Fund on the
Closing Date. The Trust Fund may acquire such  additional  Mortgage Assets for a
period  of  time  of not  more  than  120  days  after  the  Closing  Date  (the
"Pre-Funding Period") as specified in the related Prospectus Supplement. Amounts
on deposit in the Pre-Funding  Account after the end of the Pre-Funding  Period,
will be distributed to  Certificateholders  or such other person as set forth in
the related  Prospectus  Supplement.  If so  provided in the related  Prospectus
Supplement,  the Trust Fund may include amounts on deposit in a separate account
(the  "Capitalized  Interest  Account").  Amounts on deposit in the  Capitalized
Interest  Account  may be used to  supplement  investment  earnings,  if any, of
amounts on deposit in the Pre-Funding  Account,  supplement interest collections
of the Trust Fund, or such other purpose as specified in the related  Prospectus
Supplement. As set forth in a related Prospectus Supplement,  amounts on deposit
in the Capitalized Interest Account and Pre-Funding Account will be held in cash
or invested in short-term  investment grade obligations.  Any amounts on deposit
in the  Capitalized  Interest  Account  will be  released  after  the end of the
Pre-Funding Period as specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  See "Risk
Factors--Effects of Pre-Funding and Acquisition of Additional Mortgage Assets."

                       YIELD AND MATURITY CONSIDERATIONS

GENERAL

     The yield on any Offered  Certificate  will depend on the price paid by the
Certificateholder,  the Pass-Through  Rate of the Certificate and the amount and
timing of  distributions  on the  Certificate.  See "Risk  Factors--Prepayments;
Average Life of Certificates;  Yields." The following discussion  contemplates a
Trust Fund that consists solely of Mortgage Loans. While the characteristics and
behavior of mortgage loans  underlying MBS can generally be expected to have the
same effect on the yield to maturity and/or weighted  average life of a Class of
Certificates  as will the  characteristics  and behavior of comparable  Mortgage
Loans, the effect may differ due to the payment characteristics of the MBS. If a
Trust Fund  includes  MBS, the related  Prospectus  Supplement  will discuss the
effect  that the MBS payment  characteristics  may have on the yield to maturity
and weighted average lives of the Offered Certificates offered thereby.

PASS-THROUGH RATE

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

PAYMENT DELAYS

     With  respect to any series of  Certificates,  a period of time will elapse
between the date upon which  payments on the Mortgage Loans in the related Trust
Fund are due and the Distribution Date on which such payments are passed through
to  Certificateholders.  That delay will effectively reduce the yield that would
otherwise be produced if payments on such  Mortgage  Loans were  distributed  to
Certificateholders on or near the date they were due.

CERTAIN SHORTFALLS IN COLLECTIONS OF INTEREST

     When a principal  prepayment in full or in part is made on a Mortgage Loan,
the borrower is generally charged interest only for the period from the Due Date
of the preceding scheduled payment up to the date of such prepayment, instead of
for the full  accrual  period,  that  is,  the  period  from the Due Date of the
preceding  scheduled payment up to the Due Date for the next scheduled  payment.
However,  interest  accrued  on any  series of  Certificates  and  distributable
thereon on any Distribution  Date will generally  correspond to interest accrued
on the principal  balance of Mortgage  Loans for their  respective  full accrual
periods.  Consequently, if a prepayment on any Mortgage Loan is distributable to
Certificateholders on a particular Distribution Date, but such prepayment is not
accompanied  by  interest  thereon for the full  accrual  period,  the  interest
charged to the borrower (net of servicing and  administrative  fees) may be less
(such  shortfall,  a "Prepayment  Interest  Shortfall")  than the  corresponding
amount of interest  accrued and  otherwise  payable on the  Certificates  of the
related  series.  If and to the extent that any such shortfall is allocated to a
class of Offered Certificates, the yield thereon will be adversely affected. The
Prospectus  Supplement for a series of Certificates  will describe the manner in
which  any  such  shortfalls  will  be  allocated  among  the  classes  of  such
Certificates.  If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,  the Master
Servicer will be required to apply some or all of its servicing compensation for
the  corresponding  period to offset  the  amount  of any such  shortfalls.  The
related Prospectus  Supplement will also describe any other amounts available to
offset such shortfalls.  See  "Description of the Pooling  Agreements--Servicing
Compensation and Payment of Expenses."

YIELD AND PREPAYMENT CONSIDERATIONS

     A Certificate's yield to maturity will be affected by the rate of principal
payments  on the  Mortgage  Loans in the related  Trust Fund and the  allocation
thereof to reduce the principal  balance (or Notional Amount,  if applicable) of
such Certificate.  The rate of principal  payments on the Mortgage Loans will in
turn be affected by the amortization


                                       31
<PAGE>

schedules thereof (which, in the case of ARM Loans, will change  periodically to
accommodate adjustments to their Mortgage Rates), the dates on which any balloon
payments are due, and the rate of principal  prepayments  thereon (including for
this purpose,  prepayments  resulting from liquidations of Mortgage Loans due to
defaults,  casualties or condemnations  affecting the Mortgaged  Properties,  or
purchases  of  Mortgage  Loans  out of the  Trust  Fund).  Because  the  rate of
principal  prepayments  on the  Mortgage  Loans in any Trust Fund will depend on
future  events and a variety of factors (as discussed  more fully below),  it is
impossible to predict with assurance.

     The  extent  to  which  the  yield  to  maturity  of  a  class  of  Offered
Certificates of any series may vary from the anticipated  yield will depend upon
the degree to which they are purchased at a discount or premium and when, and to
what degree,  payments of principal on the Mortgage  Loans in the related  Trust
Fund are in turn distributed on such Certificates (or, in the case of a class of
Stripped Interest  Certificates,  result in the reduction of the Notional Amount
thereof).  Further,  an  investor  should  consider,  in the case of any Offered
Certificate  purchased  at a discount,  the risk that a slower than  anticipated
rate of principal payments on the Mortgage Loans in the related Trust Fund could
result in an actual yield to such  investor  that is lower than the  anticipated
yield and, in the case of any Offered  Certificate  purchased at a premium,  the
risk that a faster than anticipated  rate of principal  payments could result in
an actual yield to such investor that is lower than the  anticipated  yield.  In
general,  the  earlier  a  prepayment  of  principal  on the  Mortgage  Loans is
distributed on an Offered Certificate purchased at a discount or premium (or, if
applicable,  is allocated in reduction  of the  Notional  Amount  thereof),  the
greater will be the effect on the investor's yield to maturity. As a result, the
effect  on  such  investor's   yield  of  principal   payments  (to  the  extent
distributable  in reduction of the principal  balance or Notional Amount of such
investor's Offered Certificates)  occurring at a rate higher (or lower) than the
rate anticipated by the investor during any particular period would not be fully
offset by a subsequent  like  reduction  (or  increase) in the rate of principal
payments.

     A class of  Certificates,  including a class of Offered  Certificates,  may
provide  that on any  Distribution  Date the  holders of such  Certificates  are
entitled  to  a  pro  rata  share  of  the  prepayments  (including  prepayments
occasioned by defaults) on the Mortgage Loans in the related Trust Fund that are
distributable on such date, to a disproportionately  large share (which, in some
cases, may be all) of such prepayments,  or to a disproportionately  small share
(which,  in some cases, may be none) of such  prepayments.  As and to the extent
described in the related Prospectus Supplement,  the respective  entitlements of
the  various  classes of  Certificateholders  of any series to receive  payments
(and,  in  particular,  prepayments)  of principal of the Mortgage  Loans in the
related Trust Fund may vary based on the occurrence of certain events (e.g., the
retirement of one or more classes of  Certificates of such series) or subject to
certain  contingencies (e.g.,  prepayment and default rates with respect to such
Mortgage Loans).

     In  general,   the  Notional  Amount  of  a  class  of  Stripped   Interest
Certificates  will either (i) be based on the principal  balances of some or all
of the Mortgage  Assets in the related Trust Fund or (ii) equal the  Certificate
Balances of one or more of the other classes of Certificates of the same series.
Accordingly,  the yield on such Stripped Interest  Certificates will be directly
related  to the  amortization  of  such  Mortgage  Assets  or  such  classes  of
Certificates, as the case may be. Thus, if a class of Certificates of any series
consists of Stripped Interest Certificates or Stripped Principal Certificates, a
lower than  anticipated  rate of principal  prepayments on the Mortgage Loans in
the related Trust Fund will negatively affect the yield to investors in Stripped
Principal  Certificates,  and  a  higher  than  anticipated  rate  of  principal
prepayments on such Mortgage Loans will negatively affect the yield to investors
in Stripped Interest Certificates.

     The  Depositor  is  not  aware  of  any  relevant  publicly   available  or
authoritative statistics with respect to the historical prepayment experience of
a large group of multifamily or commercial mortgage loans.  However,  the extent
of  prepayments  of  principal  of the  Mortgage  Loans in any Trust Fund may be
affected by a number of factors, including, without limitation, the availability
of mortgage  credit,  the  relative  economic  vitality of the area in which the
Mortgaged  Properties  are located,  the quality of  management of the Mortgaged
Properties,  the servicing of the Mortgage Loans,  possible  changes in tax laws
and other  opportunities  for  investment.  In  addition,  the rate of principal
payments  on the  Mortgage  Loans  in any  Trust  Fund  may be  affected  by the
existence of Lock-out  Periods and  requirements  that principal  prepayments be
accompanied by Prepayment  Premiums,  and by the extent to which such provisions
may be practicably enforced.

     The rate of  prepayment  on a pool of  mortgage  loans is also  affected by
prevailing  market interest rates for mortgage loans of a comparable  type, term
and risk level.  When the  prevailing  market  interest rate is below a mortgage
coupon,  a borrower  may have an increased  incentive to refinance  its mortgage
loan. In addition,  as


                                       32
<PAGE>

prevailing  market  interest rates  decline,  even borrowers with ARM Loans that
have  experienced  a  corresponding  interest rate decline may have an increased
incentive to refinance  for  purposes of either (i)  converting  to a fixed rate
loan and thereby  "locking in" such rate or (ii) taking advantage of the initial
"teaser rate" (a mortgage  interest rate below what it would otherwise be if the
applicable  index and gross  margin  were  applied) on another  adjustable  rate
mortgage loan.

     Depending  on  prevailing  market  interest  rates,  the outlook for market
interest  rates and  economic  conditions  generally,  some  borrowers  may sell
Mortgaged Properties in order to realize their equity therein, to meet cash flow
needs or to make other investments. In addition, some borrowers may be motivated
by federal and state tax laws  (which are  subject to change) to sell  Mortgaged
Properties prior to the exhaustion of tax depreciation  benefits.  The Depositor
will make no  representation  as to the particular  factors that will affect the
prepayment  of  the  Mortgage  Loans  in any  Trust  Fund,  as to  the  relative
importance of such  factors,  as to the  percentage of the principal  balance of
such  Mortgage  Loans that will be paid as of any date or as to the overall rate
of prepayment on such Mortgage Loans.

WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE AND MATURITY

     The rate at which principal  payments are received on the Mortgage Loans in
any Trust Fund will affect the ultimate  maturity and the weighted  average life
of one or more classes of the Certificates of such series. Weighted average life
refers to the average  amount of time that will elapse from the date of issuance
of an instrument until each dollar of the principal amount of such instrument is
repaid to the investor.

     The weighted  average life and maturity of a class of  Certificates  of any
series will be influenced by the rate at which principal on the related Mortgage
Loans,  whether in the form of scheduled  amortization or prepayments  (for this
purpose, the term "prepayment" includes voluntary prepayments,  liquidations due
to default and purchases of Mortgage  Loans out of the related  Trust Fund),  is
paid to such class.  Prepayment rates on loans are 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.
CPR represents an assumed  constant rate of prepayment each month  (expressed as
an annual  percentage)  relative to the then outstanding  principal balance of a
pool of loans for the life of such loans.  SPA  represents  an assumed  variable
rate of prepayment each month  (expressed as an annual  percentage)  relative to
the then  outstanding  principal  balance  of a pool of  loans,  with  different
prepayment  assumptions  often  expressed as percentages of SPA. For example,  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 particular pool of loans.  Moreover,  the
CPR and SPA models were developed  based upon historical  prepayment  experience
for single-family loans. Thus, it is unlikely that the prepayment  experience of
the Mortgage  Loans  included in any Trust Fund will  conform to any  particular
level of CPR or SPA.

     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 related Mortgage Loans
are made at rates corresponding to various percentages of CPR or SPA, or at such
other rates specified in such Prospectus Supplement. Such tables and assumptions
will  illustrate  the   sensitivity  of  the  weighted   average  lives  of  the
Certificates  to various  assumed  prepayment  rates and will not be intended to
predict,  or to provide  information that will enable investors to predict,  the
actual weighted average lives of the Certificates.

CONTROLLED AMORTIZATION CLASSES AND COMPANION CLASSES

     A series of Certificates  may include one or more  Controlled  Amortization
Classes that are designed to provide  increased  protection  against  prepayment
risk by transferring that risk to one or more Companion Classes. If so specified
in the related Prospectus  Supplement,  each Controlled  Amortization Class will
either be a Planned  


                                       33
<PAGE>

Amortization  Class (a "PAC") or a Targeted  Amortization  Class (a  "TAC").  In
general,  distributions  of  principal  on a PAC are made in  accordance  with a
specified  amortization  schedule  so  long  as  prepayments  on the  underlying
Mortgage Loans occur within a specified range of constant  prepayment rates and,
as described  below,  so long as one or more Companion  Classes remain to absorb
excess  cash  flows  and make up for  shortfalls.  For  example,  if the rate of
prepayments is significantly  higher than expected,  the excess  prepayments may
retire the Companion  Classes much earlier than  expected,  thus leaving the PAC
without  further  prepayment  protection.  A TAC is similar to a PAC,  but a TAC
structure  generally  does not draw on  Companion  Classes  to make up cash flow
shortfalls,  and will  generally  not provide  protection to the TAC against the
risk that prepayments occur more slowly than expected.

     In general,  the  reduction  of  prepayment  risk  afforded to a Controlled
Amortization  Class comes at the expense of one or more Companion Classes of the
same  series  (any of which may also be a class of Offered  Certificates)  which
absorb  a  disproportionate  share  of the  overall  prepayment  risk of a given
structure.  As more particularly described in the related Prospectus Supplement,
the holders of a Companion Class will receive a  disproportionately  large share
of  prepayments  when  the  rate of  prepayment  exceeds  the  rate  assumed  in
structuring the Controlled  Amortization  Class, and (in the case of a Companion
Class that supports a PAC) a  disproportionately  small share of prepayments (or
no prepayments) when the rate of prepayment falls below that assumed rate. Thus,
as and to the extent described in the related Prospectus Supplement, a Companion
Class will absorb a  disproportionate  share of the risk that a relatively  fast
rate of prepayments will result in the early retirement of the investment,  that
is, "call  risk," and, if  applicable,  the risk that a relatively  slow rate of
prepayments will extend the average life of the investment,  that is, "extension
risk" that would otherwise be allocated to the related  Controlled  Amortization
Class.  Accordingly,  Companion  Classes can exhibit  significant  average  life
variability.

OTHER FACTORS AFFECTING YIELD, WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE AND MATURITY

     Balloon Payments; Extensions of Maturity. Some or all of the Mortgage Loans
included in a particular Trust Fund may require that balloon payments be made at
maturity.  Because the ability of a borrower 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 Mortgage  Loans that require  balloon
payments may default at maturity,  or that the maturity of such a Mortgage  Loan
may be extended in connection with a workout. In the case of defaults,  recovery
of proceeds may be delayed by, among other things, bankruptcy of the borrower or
adverse  conditions  in the market  where the  property is located.  In order to
minimize losses on defaulted  Mortgage  Loans,  the Master Servicer or a Special
Servicer,  to the extent and under the circumstances set forth herein and in the
related Prospectus  Supplement,  may be authorized 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 may
delay distributions of principal on a class of Offered  Certificates and thereby
extend the weighted average life of such  Certificates and, if such Certificates
were purchased at a discount, reduce the yield thereon.

     Negative Amortization. The weighted average life of a class of Certificates
can be affected by Mortgage Loans that permit negative amortization. In general,
such Mortgage Loans by their terms limit the amount by which scheduled  payments
may  adjust in  response  to changes  in  Mortgage  Rates  and/or  provide  that
scheduled  payment  amounts will adjust less frequently than the Mortgage Rates.
Accordingly,  during a period of rising interest rates, the scheduled payment on
a Mortgage Loan that permits  negative  amortization may be less than the amount
necessary to amortize the loan fully over its  remaining  amortization  schedule
and pay  interest  at the then  applicable  Mortgage  Rate.  In that  case,  the
Mortgage Loan balance would amortize more slowly than necessary to repay it over
such schedule and, if the amount of scheduled  payment were less than the amount
necessary to pay current  interest at the  applicable  Mortgage  Rate,  the loan
balance  would  negatively  amortize to the extent of the amount of the interest
shortfall.  Conversely,  during  a  period  of  declining  interest  rates,  the
scheduled  payment on such a Mortgage  Loan may exceed the amount  necessary  to
amortize  the  loan  fully  over its  remaining  amortization  schedule  and pay
interest at the then applicable Mortgage Rate. In that case, the excess would be
applied to principal,  thereby  resulting in  amortization at a rate faster than
necessary to repay the Mortgage Loan balance over such schedule.

     A  slower  or  negative   rate  of   Mortgage   Loan   amortization   would
correspondingly  be reflected in a slower or negative rate of  amortization  for
one or more classes of  Certificates  of the related  series.  Accordingly,  the
weighted average lives of Mortgage Loans that permit negative  amortization (and
that of the  classes of  Certificates  to which any such  negative  amortization
would  be  allocated  or  which  would  bear the  effects  of a  slower  rate of
amortization on such Mortgage Loans) may increase as a result of such feature. A
faster rate of Mortgage Loan amortization will shorten the 


                                       34
<PAGE>

weighted average life of such Mortgage Loans and, correspondingly,  the weighted
average lives of those classes of Certificates then entitled to a portion of the
principal  payments on such Mortgage Loans.  The related  Prospectus  Supplement
will describe,  if  applicable,  the manner in which  negative  amortization  in
respect  of the  Mortgage  Loans  in any  Trust  Fund  is  allocated  among  the
respective classes of Certificates of the related series.

     Foreclosures  and  Payment  Plans.  The  number  of  foreclosures  and  the
principal  amount of the Mortgage  Loans 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 lives of those Mortgage Loans and,
accordingly, the weighted average lives of and yields on the Certificates of the
related  series.  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 lives of and yields on the Certificates of the related series.

     Losses and Shortfalls on the Mortgage  Assets.  The yield to holders of the
Offered  Certificates  of any series will directly depend on the extent to which
such  holders are  required to bear the effects of any losses or  shortfalls  in
collections  arising out of defaults on the Mortgage  Loans in the related Trust
Fund and the timing of such losses and shortfalls.  In general, the earlier that
any such loss or shortfall  occurs,  the greater will be the negative  effect on
yield  for any  class of  Certificates  that is  required  to bear  the  effects
thereof.

     The amount of any  losses or  shortfalls  in  collections  on the  Mortgage
Assets in any Trust Fund (to the  extent  not  covered or offset by draws on any
reserve fund or under any instrument of Credit  Support) will be allocated among
the respective classes of Certificates of the related series in the priority and
manner,  and subject to the  limitations,  specified  in the related  Prospectus
Supplement. As described in the related Prospectus Supplement,  such allocations
may result in  reductions in the  entitlements  to interest  and/or  Certificate
Balances of one or more such classes of Certificates,  or may be effected simply
by a prioritization of payments among such classes of Certificates. The yield to
maturity on a class of Subordinate  Certificates  may be extremely  sensitive to
losses and  shortfalls in collections on the Mortgage Loans in the related Trust
Fund.

     Additional Certificate  Amortization.  In addition to entitling the holders
thereof  to a  specified  portion  (which  may  range  from  none to all) of the
principal  payments  received on the Mortgage  Assets in the related Trust Fund,
one or more classes of Certificates of any series, including one or more classes
of Offered  Certificates  of such  series,  may  provide  for  distributions  of
principal  thereof  from (i) amounts  attributable  to interest  accrued but not
currently  distributable  on one or more classes of Accrual  Certificates,  (ii)
Excess  Funds or (iii) any other  amounts  described  in the related  Prospectus
Supplement.  As  specifically  set forth in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,
"Excess  Funds"  will,  in  general,  represent  that  portion  of  the  amounts
distributable  in respect of the  Certificates of any series on any Distribution
Date that represent (i) interest  received or advanced on the Mortgage Assets in
the related Trust Fund that is in excess of the interest currently distributable
on the  Certificates  of such series,  as well as any  interest  accrued but not
currently  distributable  on any Accrual  Certificates  of such series,  or (ii)
Prepayment  Premiums,  payments from Equity  Participations or any other amounts
received on the Mortgage Assets in the related Trust Fund that do not constitute
interest thereon or principal thereof.

     The amortization of any class of Certificates out of the sources  described
in the  preceding  paragraph  would  shorten the  weighted  average life of such
Certificates and, if such  Certificates were purchased at a premium,  reduce the
yield  thereon.  The related  Prospectus  Supplement  will  discuss the relevant
factors to be considered in determining  whether  distributions  of principal of
any class of Certificates  out of such sources would have any material effect on
the rate at which such Certificates are amortized.

                                  THE DEPOSITOR

     Merrill  Lynch  Mortgage  Investors,  Inc.,  the  Depositor,  is a Delaware
corporation organized on June 13, 1986 as a wholly-owned limited purpose finance
subsidiary  of Merrill  Lynch  Mortgage  Capital Inc. (a  wholly-owned  indirect
subsidiary of Merrill Lynch & Co.).  The  Depositor's  principal  business is to
acquire,  hold and/or sell or otherwise dispose of cash flow assets,  usually in
connection with the  securitization  of that asset. The Depositor  maintains its
principal office at World Financial  Center,  North  Tower-Fifteenth  Floor, 250
Vesey Street,  New York,  New York  10281-1315.  Its  telephone  number is (212)
449-0336. The Depositor does not have, nor is it expected in the future to have,
any significant assets.

                                 USE OF PROCEEDS

     The net proceeds to be received  from the sale of the  Certificates  of any
series will be applied by the  Depositor to the purchase of Trust Assets or will
be used by the Depositor for general corporate  purposes.  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 Mortgage Assets acquired by the Depositor,  prevailing interest rates,
availability of funds and general market conditions.

                         DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES

GENERAL

     The  Certificates  of each series will  consist of one or more  classes and
will  represent  the  entire  beneficial  ownership  interest  in the Trust Fund
created pursuant to the related Pooling  Agreement.  Each series of Certificates
may consist of one or more classes of Certificates (including classes of Offered
Certificates)  that (i) provide for the accrual of interest  thereon at a fixed,
variable  or   adjustable   rate;   (ii)  are  senior   (collectively,   "Senior
Certificates") or subordinate (collectively,  "Subordinate Certificates") to one
or more other classes of Certificates in entitlement to certain distributions on
the  Certificates;  (iii) are  entitled  to  distributions  of  principal,  with
disproportionately small, nominal or no distributions of interest (collectively,
"Stripped  Principal  Certificates");  (iv) are  entitled  to  distributions  of
interest,  with  disproportionately   small,  nominal  or  no  distributions  of
principal  (collectively,  "Stripped  Interest  Certificates");  (v) provide for
distributions  of principal and/or interest thereon that commence only after 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 to be made,  from time to time or for  designated  periods,  at a rate
that is faster (and,  in some cases,  substantially  faster) or slower (and,  in
some  cases,  substantially  slower)  than the rate at which  payments  or other
collections  of principal  are  received on the  Mortgage  Assets in the related
Trust Fund; or (vii) provide for distributions of principal to be made,  subject
to available  funds,  based on a specified  principal  payment schedule or other
methodology.

     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  or REMIC  Residual  Certificates,  Notional  Amounts  or
percentage  interests,  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement.  As
provided in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  one or more classes of Offered
Certificates  of any series may be issued in fully  registered,  definitive form
(such Certificates,  "Definitive  Certificates") or may be offered in book-entry
format (such Certificates,  "Book-Entry Certificates") through the facilities of
The Depository  Trust Company ("DTC").  The Offered  Certificates of each series
(if issued as Definitive Certificates) may be transferred or exchanged,  subject
to any restrictions on transfer described in the related Prospectus  Supplement,
at the location  specified  in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  without the
payment of any service charge,  other than any tax or other governmental  charge
payable in connection therewith. Interests in a class of Book-Entry Certificates
will be  transferred  on the  book-entry  records  of DTC and its  participating
organizations.  See "Risk  Factors--Limited  Liquidity,"  "--Limited Assets" and
"--Book-Entry Registration." 

DISTRIBUTIONS

     Distributions  on the  Certificates  of each  series  will be made by or on
behalf of the related  Trustee or Master Servicer on each  Distribution  Date as
specified in the related Prospectus  Supplement from the Available  Distribution
Amount for such series and such Distribution Date. If so provided in the related
Prospectus  Supplement,  the "Available  Distribution  Amount" for any series of
Certificates and any  Distribution  Date will refer to the total of all


                                       36
<PAGE>

payments or other  collections  (or  advances in lieu  thereof)  on, under or in
respect of the  Mortgage  Assets and any other  assets  included  in the related
Trust Fund that are available for distribution to the Certificateholders of such
series on such date.  The  particular  components of the Available  Distribution
Amount  for any  series  on each  Distribution  Date  will be more  specifically
described in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     Except  as  otherwise  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,
distributions  on  the  Certificates  of  each  series  (other  than  the  final
distribution in retirement of any such  Certificate) will be made to the persons
in whose names such  Certificates are registered at the close of business on the
last  business  day of the month  preceding  the  month in which the  applicable
Distribution   Date  occurs  (the  "Record  Date"),   and  the  amount  of  each
distribution  will be  determined  as of the close of  business on the date (the
"Determination  Date")  specified  in the  related  Prospectus  Supplement.  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.  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 provided the
Trustee or other person required to make such payments with wiring  instructions
(which  may be  provided  in the  form of a  standing  order  applicable  to all
subsequent  distributions)  no  later  than the date  specified  in the  related
Prospectus Supplement (and, if so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement,
such   Certificateholder   holds   Certificates  in  the  requisite   amount  or
denomination  specified  therein),  or by check  mailed to the  address  of such
Certificateholder as it appears on the Certificate Register;  provided, however,
that the final distribution in retirement of any class of Certificates  (whether
Definitive  Certificates  or  Book-Entry  Certificates)  will be made  only upon
presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the location specified in the
notice  to  Certificateholders  of such  final  distribution. 

DISTRIBUTIONS OF INTEREST ON THE CERTIFICATES

     Each class of  Certificates  of each series (other than certain  classes of
Stripped  Principal  Certificates and certain REMIC Residual  Certificates  that
have no Pass-Through Rate) may have a different  Pass-Through Rate, which may be
fixed,  variable or adjustable.  The related Prospectus  Supplement will specify
the Pass-Through  Rate or, in the case of a variable or adjustable  Pass-Through
Rate, the method for determining the Pass-Through  Rate, for each class.  Unless
otherwise  specified  in the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,  interest  on the
Certificates  of each series 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
(other than any class of Certificates  that will be entitled to distributions of
accrued  interest  commencing  only  on the  Distribution  Date,  or  under  the
circumstances,   specified  in  the  related  Prospectus   Supplement  ("Accrual
Certificates"),  and other than any class of Stripped Principal  Certificates or
REMIC  Residual  Certificates  that  is not  entitled  to any  distributions  of
interest)  will  be  made  on  each  Distribution  Date  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   (other  than  certain  classes  of  Stripped  Interest
Certificates and REMIC Residual  Certificates),  "Accrued Certificate  Interest"
for  each  Distribution  Date  will  be  equal  to  interest  at the  applicable
Pass-Through  Rate accrued for a specified period  (generally the period between
Distribution  Dates) on the outstanding  Certificate Balance thereof immediately
prior to such  Distribution  Date.  Unless  otherwise  provided  in the  related
Prospectus  Supplement,  Accrued Certificate Interest for each Distribution Date
on Stripped Interest  Certificates  will be similarly  calculated except that it
will accrue on a notional amount (a "Notional  Amount") that is either (i) based
on the principal  balances of some or all of the Mortgage  Assets in the related
Trust  Fund or (ii)  equal  to the  Certificate  Balances  of one or more  other
classes of Certificates of the same series.  Reference to a Notional Amount with
respect to a class of Stripped  Interest  Certificates is solely for convenience
in making certain  calculations  and does not represent the right to receive any
distributions  of  principal.   If  so  specified  in  the  related   Prospectus
Supplement,  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) one or more classes of the Certificates of
a series will be reduced to the extent that any Prepayment Interest  Shortfalls,
as described  under "Yield and Maturity  Considerations--Certain  Shortfalls  in
Collections of Interest,"  exceed the amount of any sums  (including,  if and to
the extent specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Master Servicer's
servicing  compensation)  that  are  applied  to  offset  such  shortfalls.  The
particular  manner in which such  shortfalls will be allocated among some or all
of the classes of  Certificates  of that series will be specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement.  The related 


                                       37
<PAGE>

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  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 or in respect of the Mortgage Assets in the related Trust Fund will result in
a  corresponding  increase in the Certificate  Balance of such class.  See "Risk
Factors--Prepayments;  Average  Life of  Certificates;  Yields"  and  "Yield and
Maturity Considerations."

DISTRIBUTIONS OF CERTIFICATE PRINCIPAL

     Each class of  Certificates  of each series (other than certain  classes of
Stripped  Interest  Certificates  of REMIC  Residual  Certificates)  will have a
"Certificate  Balance"  which,  at any time,  will equal the then maximum amount
that the  holders of  Certificates  of such class will be entitled to receive in
respect of  principal  out of the future  cash flow on the  Mortgage  Assets and
other assets  included in the related Trust Fund.  The  outstanding  Certificate
Balance of a class of Certificates will be reduced by distributions of principal
made  thereon  from time to time and, if so  provided in the related  Prospectus
Supplement,  further by any losses  incurred in respect of the related  Mortgage
Assets allocated thereto from time to time. In turn, the outstanding Certificate
Balance of a class of Certificates  may be increased as a result of any deferred
interest  on or in respect of the  related  Mortgage  Assets  that is  allocated
thereto  from  time to time,  and will be  increased,  in the case of a class of
Accrual  Certificates  prior to the Distribution Date on which  distributions of
interest  thereon  are  required  to  commence,  by the  amount  of any  Accrued
Certificate  Interest in respect thereof  (reduced as described  above).  Unless
otherwise provided in the related Prospectus  Supplement,  the initial aggregate
Certificate  Balance  of all  classes  of a series of  Certificates  will not be
greater than the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage
Assets  as of the  applicable  Cut-off  Date,  after  application  of  scheduled
payments  due on or before  such date,  whether or not  received.  As and to the
extent  described  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,   distributions  of
principal  with  respect  to a  series  of  Certificates  will  be  made on each
Distribution Date to the holders of the class or classes of Certificates of such
series entitled thereto until the Certificate Balances of such Certificates have
been reduced to zero.  Distributions  of  principal  with respect to one or more
classes  of  Certificates  may be made at a rate  that is faster  (and,  in some
cases,   substantially  faster)  than  the  rate  at  which  payments  or  other
collections  of principal  are  received on the  Mortgage  Assets in the related
Trust Fund, may not commence until the occurrence of certain events, such as the
retirement of one or more other classes of Certificates  of the same series,  or
may be made at a rate that is slower (and, in some cases,  substantially slower)
than the rate at which  payments or other  collections of principal are received
on such Mortgage Assets. In addition, distributions of principal with respect to
one or more classes of Certificates (each such class, a "Controlled Amortization
Class") may be made, subject to available funds, based on a specified  principal
payment schedule and, with respect to one or more classes of Certificates  (each
such class, a "Companion  Class"),  may be contingent on the specified principal
payment schedule for a Controlled  Amortization Class of the same series and the
rate at which payments and other collections of principal on the Mortgage Assets
in the  related  Trust Fund are  received.  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.  

DISTRIBUTIONS  ON THE  CERTIFICATES  IN RESPECT  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  received on or in connection with
the Mortgage  Assets in any Trust Fund will be distributed on each  Distribution
Date to the holders of the class of  Certificates of the related series entitled
thereto  in  accordance  with  the  provisions   described  in  such  Prospectus
Supplement.

ALLOCATION OF LOSSES AND SHORTFALLS

     The amount of any  losses or  shortfalls  in  collections  on the  Mortgage
Assets in any Trust Fund (to the  extent  not  covered or offset by draws on any
reserve fund or under any instrument of Credit  Support) will be allocated among
the respective classes of Certificates of the related series in the priority and
manner,  and subject to the  limitations,  specified  in the related  Prospectus
Supplement. As described in the related Prospectus Supplement,  such allocations

                                       38
<PAGE>

may  result  in  reductions  in  the  entitlements  to  interest  and/or  in the
Certificate  Balances  of one or more such  classes of  Certificates,  or may be
effected  simply  by  a  prioritization   of  payments  among  such  classes  of
Certificates.

ADVANCES IN RESPECT OF DELINQUENCIES

     If and to the extent  provided in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  the
related Master Servicer and/or other specified  person  (including a provider of
Credit Support) may be obligated to advance, or have the option of advancing, on
or before  each  Distribution  Date,  from its or their own funds or from excess
funds held in the related Certificate Account that are not part of the Available
Distribution Amount for the related series of Certificates for such Distribution
Date, an amount up to the aggregate of any payments of principal (other than any
balloon  payments)  and interest that were due on or in respect of such Mortgage
Loans  during  the  related  Due  Period  and  were  delinquent  on the  related
Determination   Date.  Unless  otherwise  provided  in  the  related  Prospectus
Supplement,  a "Due  Period"  is the  period  between  Distribution  Dates,  and
scheduled  payments  on the  Mortgage  Loans in any Trust  Fund that  became due
during  a  given  Due  Period  will,  to the  extent  received  by  the  related
Determination Date or advanced by the related Master Servicer or other specified
person,   be  distributed  on  the   Distribution   Date  next  succeeding  such
Determination Date.

     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.  Accordingly,  all
advances made from the advancing  person's own funds will be reimbursable out of
related  recoveries on the Mortgage Loans (including  amounts received under any
instrument of Credit  Support)  respecting  which such advances were made (as to
any Mortgage Loan, "Related Proceeds") and such other specific sources as may be
identified  in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  including  in the case of a
series  that  includes  one  or  more  classes  of   Subordinate   Certificates,
collections  on other  Mortgage  Loans in the  related  Trust  Fund  that  would
otherwise  be  distributable  to the  holders  of one or  more  classes  of such
Subordinate  Certificates.  No advance will be required to be made by the Master
Servicer  or by any other  person if, in the good faith  judgment  of the Master
Servicer  or such other  person,  such  advance  would not be  recoverable  from
Related Proceeds or another specifically  identified source (any such advance, a
"Nonrecoverable  Advance");  and,  if  previously  made by a Master  Servicer or
another person, a Nonrecoverable  Advance will be reimbursable  from any amounts
in the related  Certificate Account prior to any distributions being made to the
related series of Certificateholders.

     If advances have been made from excess funds in a Certificate  Account, the
Master  Servicer or other  person that  advanced  such funds will be required to
replace such funds in the Certificate Account on any future Distribution Date to
the extent that funds then in the Certificate Account are insufficient to permit
full  distributions to  Certificateholders  on such date. If so specified in the
related  Prospectus  Supplement,  the  obligation of a Master  Servicer or other
specified  person to make advances may be secured by a cash advance reserve fund
or a surety bond. 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,  any
entity  making  advances  will be entitled to receive  interest  thereon for the
period  that  such  advances  are  outstanding  at the  rate  specified  in such
Prospectus  Supplement,  and such  entity  will be  entitled  to payment of such
interest  periodically  from general  collections  on the Mortgage  Loans in the
related  Trust Fund prior to any payment to  Certificateholders  or as otherwise
provided in the related  Pooling  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  comparable
advancing  obligation of a party to the related Pooling  Agreement or of a party
to the related MBS Agreement.

REPORTS TO CERTIFICATEHOLDERS

     On each Distribution Date, together with the distribution to the holders of
each  class of the  Offered  Certificates  of a  series,  a Master  Servicer  or
Trustee, as provided in the related Prospectus Supplement,  will forward to each
such  holder,  a  statement  (a  "Distribution  Date  Statement")  that,  unless
otherwise provided in the related Prospectus  Supplement,  will set forth, among
other things, in each case to the extent applicable:

         (i) the amount of such  distribution to holders of Certificates of such
     class that was applied to reduce the Certificate Balance thereof;

     Fund  must  be  received  in  order  to  be  distributed  on  a  particular
     Distribution  Date) in  connection  with a default  thereon or by reason of

     related  Mortgage  Loan,  (B) the date of  acquisition,  (C) the  principal

          (xi)  with  respect  to any  REO  Property  sold  during  the  related
     Prepayment  Period,  (A) the loan number of the related  Mortgage Loan, (B)
     the  aggregate  amount of sales  proceeds,  (C) the  portion  of such sales

     related Mortgage Loan;

          (xii) the 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 losses in respect of the related  Mortgage  Loans and any
     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 on the
     Mortgage Loans during the related Prepayment Period;

                                       40
<PAGE>

          (xiv) the amount  deposited in or  withdrawn  from any reserve fund on
     such Distribution Date, and the amount remaining on deposit in such reserve
     fund as of the close of business on such Distribution Date;

          (xv) the amount of any Accrued  Certificate  Interest due but not paid
     on such  class of Offered  Certificates  at the close of  business  on such
     Distribution Date;

          (xvi)  if  such   class  of  Offered   Certificates   has  a  variable
     Pass-Through Rate or an adjustable Pass-Through Rate, the Pass-Through Rate
     applicable thereto for such Distribution Date and, if determinable, for the
     next succeeding Distribution Date; and

          (xvii) if the related Trust Fund includes one or more  instruments  of
     Credit Support,  such as a letter of credit,  an insurance  policy and/or a
     surety bond,  the amount of coverage  under each such  instrument as of the
     close of business on such Distribution Date.

     In the case of information furnished pursuant to subclauses (i)-(iv) above,
the amounts will be expressed as a dollar amount per minimum denomination of the
relevant  class of  Offered  Certificates  or per a  specified  portion  of such
minimum  denomination.  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
related  Master  Servicer  or  Trustee,  as the case may be, will be required to
furnish to each person who at any time during the calendar  year was a holder of
an Offered  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   will  be  deemed  to  have  been   satisfied  to  the  extent  that
substantially comparable information is provided pursuant to any requirements of
the Code as are from time to time in force.  See,  however,  "Description of the
Certificates--Book-Entry Registration and Definitive Certificates."

     If the Trust Fund for a series of Certificates includes MBS, the ability of
the related  Master  Servicer or Trustee,  as the case may be, to include in any
Distribution Date Statement  information regarding the mortgage loans underlying
such MBS will depend on the reports  received  with respect to such MBS. In such
cases,  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement  will  describe  the  loan-specific
information  to be included in the  Distribution  Date  Statements  that will be
forwarded  to  the  holders  of the  Offered  Certificates  of  that  series  in
connection with distributions made to them. 

VOTING RIGHTS

     The voting  rights  evidenced  by each series of  Certificates  (as to such
series,  the "Voting Rights") will be allocated among the respective  classes of
such series in the manner described in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     Certificateholders will generally have a right to vote only with respect to
required consents to certain  amendments to the related Pooling Agreement and as
otherwise  specified in the related Prospectus  Supplement.  See "Description of
the  Pooling   Agreements--Amendment."  The  holders  of  specified  amounts  of
Certificates of a particular series will have the collective right to remove the
related  Trustee and also to cause the removal of the related Master Servicer in
the  case of an  Event  of  Default  on the  part of the  Master  Servicer.  See
"Description of the Pooling Agreements--Events of Default," "--Rights Upon Event
of Default" and "--Resignation and Removal of the Trustee." 

TERMINATION

     The  obligations  created  by the  Pooling  Agreement  for each  series  of
Certificates  will  terminate  upon the payment (or  provision  for  payment) to
Certificateholders of that series of all amounts held in the related Certificate
Account,  or otherwise by the related Master Servicer or Trustee or by a Special
Servicer,  and required to be paid to such  Certificateholders  pursuant to such
Pooling  Agreement  following  the  earlier  of (i) the final  payment  or other
liquidation of the last Mortgage Asset subject thereto or the disposition of all
property acquired upon foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan subject thereto and (ii)
the  purchase  of all of the  assets  of the  related  Trust  Fund by the  party
entitled to effect such  termination,  under the circumstances and in the manner
that will be described in the related Prospectus  Supplement.  Written notice of
termination of a Pooling  Agreement will be given to each  Certificateholder  of
the  related  series,  and  the  final  distribution  will  be  made  only  upon
presentation and surrender of the Certificates of such series 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 a party  that  will be  specified
therein,  


                                       41
<PAGE>

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,  a party  identified  therein will be  authorized or required to solicit
bids for the  purchase  of all the assets of the  related  Trust  Fund,  or of a
sufficient  portion of such assets to retire  such class or  classes,  under the
circumstances  and in the  manner  set  forth  therein.  In  any  event,  unless
otherwise disclosed in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, any such repurchase
or  purchase  shall be at a price or prices  that are  generally  based upon the
unpaid principal balance of, plus accrued interest on, all Mortgage Loans (other
than Mortgage Loans secured by REO Properties) then included in a Trust Fund and
the fair market  value of all REO  Properties  then  included in the Trust Fund,
which may or may not result in full payment of the aggregate Certificate Balance
plus accrued interest and any  undistributed  shortfall in interest for the then
outstanding Certificates. Any sale of Trust Fund assets will be without recourse
to the Trust and/or Certificateholders,  provided, however, that there can be no
assurance   that  in  all  events  a  court  would  accept  such  a  contractual
stipulation. 

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 offered in  book-entry  format
through the facilities of The Depository  Trust Company  ("DTC"),  and each such
class will be represented by one or more global  Certificates  registered in the
name of DTC or its nominee.

     DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking
Law, a "banking  corporation"  within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a
member of the  Federal  Reserve  System,  a  "clearing  corporation"  within the
meaning  of the New  York  Uniform  Commercial  Code,  and a  "clearing  agency"
registered  pursuant to the  provisions  of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC
was   created   to  hold   securities   for  its   participating   organizations
("Participants")  and  facilitate  the  clearance  and  settlement of securities
transactions  between Participants  through electronic  computerized  book-entry
changes in their accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of
securities  certificates.  "Direct  Participants,"  which maintain accounts with
DTC, include securities  brokers and dealers  (including Merrill Lynch,  Pierce,
Fenner & Smith Incorporated),  banks, trust companies and clearing  corporations
and may include  certain  other  organizations.  DTC is owned by a number of its
Direct Participants and by the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the American Stock
Exchange,  Inc., and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. 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 Direct Participant,  either directly or indirectly ("Indirect  Participants").
The  Rules  applicable  to DTC  and  its  Participants  are  on  file  with  the
Commission.

     Purchases of Book-Entry  Certificates  under the DTC system must be made by
or through Direct  Participants,  which will receive a credit for the Book-Entry
Certificates on DTC's records.  The ownership  interest of each actual purchaser
of a Book-Entry  Certificate (a "Certificate Owner") will in turn be recorded on
the records of Direct and  Indirect  Participants.  Certificate  Owners will not
receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchases, but Certificate Owners
are  expected  to  receive  written  confirmations  providing  details  of  such
transactions,  as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct
or Indirect  Participant  through which each Certificate  Owner entered into the
transaction. Transfers of ownership interest in the Book-Entry Certificates will
be accomplished by entries made on the books of Participants acting on behalf of
Certificate   Owners.   Certificate   Owners  will  not   receive   certificates
representing their ownership interests in the Book-Entry Certificates, except in
the event that use of the book-entry  system for the Book-Entry  Certificates of
any series is discontinued as described below.

     DTC  will not  know  the  identity  of  actual  Certificate  Owners  of the
Book-Entry  Certificates;  DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct
Participants to whose accounts such Certificates are credited.  The Participants
will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their
customers.   Notices  and  other  communications   conveyed  by  DTC  to  Direct
Participants,  by Direct  Participants to Indirect  Participants,  and by Direct
Participants and Indirect Participants to Certificate Owners will be governed by
arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory  requirements as
may be in effect from time to time.

     Distributions  on the  Book-Entry  Certificates  will be made to DTC. DTC's
practice is to credit "Direct Participants" accounts on the related Distribution
Date in accordance with their respective  holdings shown on DTC's records unless
DTC has  reason  to  believe  that it will not  receive  payment  on such  date.
Disbursement of such distributions by Participants to Certificate Owners will be
governed by standing  instructions and customary practices,  as is the case with
securities  held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or  registered  in
"street name," and will be the  responsibility of each such Participant (and not
of DTC,  the  Depositor  or any  Trustee  or Master  Servicer), 


                                       42
<PAGE>

subject to any  statutory or  regulatory  requirements  as may be in effect from
time to time. Under a book-entry system, Certificate Owners may receive payments
after the related Distribution Date.

     As  may  be  provided  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,  the  only
"Certificateholder" (as such term is used in the related Pooling Agreement) of a
Book-Entry  Certificate  will be the nominee of DTC, and the Certificate  Owners
will not be  recognized  as  Certificateholders  under  the  Pooling  Agreement.
Certificate   Owners   will   be   permitted   to   exercise   the   rights   of
Certificateholders  under the related Pooling Agreement only indirectly  through
the  Participants  who in turn will  exercise  their  rights  through  DTC.  The
Depositor  is  informed  that DTC will take  action  permitted  to be taken by a
Certificateholder under a Pooling Agreement only at the direction of one or more
Participants to whose account with DTC interests in the Book-Entry  Certificates
are credited.

     Because  DTC can act only on  behalf  of  Participants,  who in turn act on
behalf of Indirect Participants and certain Certificate Owners, the ability of a
Certificate  Owner to pledge its interest in 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 Book-Entry Certificates, may be limited due to the
lack of a physical certificate evidencing such interest.

     As may be  specified  in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  Certificates
initially  issued  in  book-entry  form  will be  issued  in  fully  registered,
certificated  form (as so  issued,  "Definitive  Certificates")  to  Certificate
Owners or their  nominees,  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 such
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 with  respect to such  Certificates.  Upon the  occurrence  of either of the
events described in the preceding  sentence,  DTC will be required to notify all
Participants of the availability  through DTC of Definitive  Certificates.  Upon
surrender by DTC of the  certificate  or  certificates  representing  a class of
Book-Entry  Certificates,  together with  instructions for  reregistration,  the
Trustee or other  designated  party will be required to issue to the Certificate
Owners identified in such instructions the Definitive Certificates to which they
are entitled, and thereafter the holders of such Definitive Certificates will be
recognized as Certificateholders under the related Pooling Agreement.

                      DESCRIPTION OF THE POOLING AGREEMENTS

GENERAL

     The  Certificates  of each series will be issued  pursuant to a pooling and
servicing  agreement  or other  agreement  specified  in the related  Prospectus
Supplement (in either case, a "Pooling Agreement"). In general, the parties to a
Pooling Agreement will include the Depositor,  the Trustee,  the Master Servicer
and, in some cases, a Special  Servicer  appointed as of the date of the Pooling
Agreement.  However,  a Pooling  Agreement  that  relates  to a Trust  Fund that
consists  solely of MBS may not include a Master Servicer or other servicer as a
party.  All parties to each  Pooling  Agreement  under which  Certificates  of a
series are issued will be identified in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     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.  However,  the
provisions of each Pooling  Agreement will vary depending upon the nature of the
Certificates  to be issued  thereunder and the nature of the related Trust Fund.
The following summaries describe certain provisions that may appear in a Pooling
Agreement  under which  Certificates  that evidence  interests in Mortgage Loans
will be issued.  The  Prospectus  Supplement for a series of  Certificates  will
describe any provision of the related Pooling Agreement that materially  differs
from the  description  thereof  contained in this Prospectus and, if the related
Trust Fund includes MBS,  will  summarize all of the material  provisions of the
related Pooling  Agreement.  The summaries  herein 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 Pooling  Agreement for each series of Certificates 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 Pooling Agreement  (without  exhibits) that relates to any
series of  Certificates  without  charge upon  written  request of a holder of a
Certificate of such series addressed to Merrill Lynch Mortgage Investors,  Inc.,
World Financial Center, North Tower-Fifteenth Floor, 250 Vesey Street, New York,
New  York  10281-1315.  Attention:  Secretary. 

ASSIGNMENT OF MORTGAGE LOANS; REPURCHASES

     As set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement, generally at the time of
issuance of any series of  Certificates,  the Depositor will assign (or cause to
be assigned) to the designated  Trustee the Mortgage Loans to be included in the

                                       43
<PAGE>

related Trust Fund,  together with, all principal and interest to be received on
or with  respect to such  Mortgage  Loans  after the  Cut-off  Date,  other than
principal  and interest  due on or before the Cut-off  Date.  The Trustee  will,
concurrently  with  such  assignment,  deliver  the  Certificates  to or at  the
direction of the  Depositor  in exchange  for the  Mortgage  Loans and the other
assets to be included in the Trust Fund for such series. Each Mortgage Loan will
be  identified  in a schedule  appearing  as an exhibit to the  related  Pooling
Agreement.  Such  schedule  generally  will include  detailed  information  that
pertains  to each  Mortgage  Loan  included in the  related  Trust  Fund,  which
information will typically include the address of the related Mortgaged Property
and type of such property; the Mortgage Rate and, if applicable,  the applicable
index, gross margin, adjustment date and any rate cap information;  the original
and remaining term to maturity; the original amortization term; the original and
outstanding  principal  balance;  and the  Loan-to-Value  Ratio and Debt Service
Coverage Ratio as of the date indicated.

     With  respect to each  Mortgage  Loan to be included  in a Trust Fund,  the
Depositor will deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the related  Trustee (or to
a custodian appointed by the Trustee) certain loan documents which, will include
the original  Mortgage  Note  endorsed,  without  recourse,  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. The related Pooling  Agreement will require that the Depositor
or other party  thereto  promptly  cause each such  assignment of Mortgage to be
recorded in the appropriate public office for real property records.

     The related  Trustee (or the  custodian  appointed by the Trustee)  will be
required to review the Mortgage Loan documents within a specified period of days
after  receipt  thereof,  and the  Trustee  (or the  custodian)  will  hold such
documents  in trust for the  benefit of the  Certificateholders  of the  related
series. Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,  if any
such  document  is found to be missing or  defective,  in either  case such that
interests of the  Certificateholders  are materially and adversely affected, the
Trustee (or such  custodian)  will be required to notify the Master Servicer and
the Depositor,  and the Master  Servicer will be required to notify the relevant
Mortgage  Asset Seller.  In that case,  and if the Mortgage  Asset Seller cannot
deliver the document or cure the defect within a specified  number of days after
receipt  of  such  notice,  then  unless  otherwise  specified  in  the  related
Prospectus  Supplement,  the Mortgage  Asset Seller will be obligated to replace
the related Mortgage Loan or repurchase it from the Trustee at a price that will
be  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus   Supplement.   

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; REPURCHASES

     The Depositor will, with respect to each Mortgage Loan in the related Trust
Fund, make or assign certain representations and warranties,  (the person making
such representations and warranties, the "Warranting Party") covering, by way of
example: (i) the accuracy of the information set forth for such Mortgage Loan on
the schedule of Mortgage  Loans  appearing as an exhibit to the related  Pooling
Agreement; (ii) the enforceability of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage and
the  existence  of title  insurance  insuring  the lien  priority of the related
Mortgage;  (iii)  the  Warranting  Party's  title to the  Mortgage  Loan and the
authority  of the  Warranting  Party to sell  the  Mortgage  Loan;  and (iv) the
payment status of the Mortgage Loan. Each Warranting Party will be identified in
the related Prospectus Supplement.

     Each Pooling Agreement will provide that the Master Servicer and/or Trustee
will be required to notify  promptly any  Warranting  Party of any breach of any
representation  or  warranty  made by it in  respect  of a  Mortgage  Loan  that
materially    and    adversely    affects   the   interests   of   the   related
Certificateholders.  If such  Warranting  Party cannot cure such breach within a
specified  period  following  the date on which it was  notified of such breach,
then, unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, it will be
obligated to repurchase  such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee  within a specified
period at a price that will be specified in the related  Prospectus  Supplement.
If so provided in the  Prospectus  Supplement  for a series of  Certificates,  a
Warranting  Party,  in lieu of repurchasing a Mortgage Loan as to which a breach
has occurred,  will have the option,  exercisable upon certain conditions and/or
within a specified period after initial issuance of such series of Certificates,
to  replace  such  Mortgage  Loan  with one or more  other  mortgage  loans,  in
accordance  with standards that will be described in the Prospectus  Supplement.
This  repurchase  or  substitution  obligation  may  constitute  the sole remedy
available   to  holders  of   Certificates   of  any  series  for  a  breach  of
representation  and  warranty  by a  Warranting  Party.  Moreover,  neither  the
Depositor  (unless it is the Warranting  Party) nor the Master  Servicer will be
obligated to purchase or replace a Mortgage Loan if a Warranting  Party defaults
on its obligation to do so.

     The dates as of which  representations  and warranties  have been made by a
Warranting Party will be specified in the related Prospectus Supplement. In some
cases,  such  representations  and  warranties  will have been made as of a


                                       44
<PAGE>

date prior to the date upon which the related series of  Certificates is issued,
and thus may not address  events that may occur  following  the date as of which
they were made. However, the Depositor will not include any Mortgage Loan in the
Trust  Fund  for  any  series  of  Certificates  if  anything  has  come  to the
Depositor's  attention  that would cause it to believe that the  representations
and warranties made in respect of such Mortgage Loan will not be accurate in all

     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  Mortgage
Loans (collectively, the "Certificate Account"), which will be established so as
to comply with the  standards  of each  Rating  Agency that has rated any one or
more classes of Certificates of the related series.  As described in the related
Prospectus  Supplement,  a Certificate  Account may be  maintained  either as an
interest-bearing or a  non-interest-bearing  account, and the funds held therein
may be held as cash or invested in United States government securities and other
investment  grade  obligations   specified  in  the  related  Pooling  Agreement
("Permitted  Investments").  Any interest or other income earned on funds in the
Certificate  Account will be paid to the related  Master  Servicer or Trustee as
additional  compensation.  If permitted by such 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 representing payments on mortgage loans
owned by the related Master Servicer or serviced by it on behalf of others.

     Deposits.  Unless otherwise  provided in the related Pooling  Agreement and
described in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  the related Master  Servicer,
Trustee or Special Servicer will be required to deposit or cause to be deposited
in the Certificate Account for each Trust Fund within a certain period following
receipt (in the case of collections  and payments),  the following  payments and
collections received,  or advances made, by the Master Servicer,  the Trustee or
any Special Servicer  subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than payments due on
or before the Cut-off Date):

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

          (ii) all  payments  on  account of  interest  on the  Mortgage  Loans,
     including any default interest  collected,  in each case net of any portion
     thereof  retained  by  the  Master   Servicer,   any  Special  Servicer  or
     Sub-Servicer  as  its  servicing  compensation  or as  compensation  to the
     Trustee;

          (iii) all proceeds received under any hazard, title or other insurance
     policy that provides  coverage with respect to a Mortgaged  Property or the
     related  Mortgage Loan (other than proceeds  applied to the  restoration of
     the  property or released to the related  borrower in  accordance  with the
     customary servicing practices of the Master Servicer (or, if applicable,  a
     Special  Servicer)  and/or the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage
     (collectively,  "Insurance  Proceeds")  and all other amounts  received and
     retained in connection with the liquidation of defaulted  Mortgage Loans or
     property   acquired  in  respect  thereof,   by  foreclosure  or  otherwise
     ("Liquidation  Proceeds"),  together  with the net  operating  income (less
     reasonable  reserves for future expenses) derived from the operation of any
     Mortgaged  Properties  acquired by the Trust Fund  through  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 the purchase of any Mortgage  Loan,  or property
     acquired in respect thereof, by the Depositor, any Mortgage Asset Seller or
     any other  specified  person as described under  "--Assignment  of Mortgage
     Loans;  Repurchases" and "--Representations  and Warranties;  Repurchases,"
     all proceeds of the purchase of any  defaulted  Mortgage  Loan as described
     under  "--Realization  Upon Defaulted  Mortgage Loans," and all proceeds of
     any  Mortgage  Asset  purchased  as  described  under  "Description  of the
     Certificates--Termination"   (all  of  the  foregoing,  also,  "Liquidation
     Proceeds");

                                       45
<PAGE>

          (viii) any amounts  paid by the Master  Servicer  to cover  Prepayment
     Interest  Shortfalls  arising out of the  prepayment  of Mortgage  Loans as
     described under "--Servicing Compensation and Payment of Expenses";

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

          (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 the 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  Pooling  Agreement and described in the
     related Prospectus Supplement.

     Withdrawals. Unless otherwise provided in the related Pooling Agreement and
described in the related Prospectus  Supplement,  a Master Servicer,  Trustee or
Special  Servicer may 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 the Master  Servicer or any other  specified  person
     for unreimbursed  amounts advanced by it 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) on and  principal of the  particular  Mortgage  Loans with respect to
     which the  advances  were made or out of  amounts  drawn  under any form of
     Credit Support with respect to such Mortgage Loans;

          (iii) to  reimburse  the Master  Servicer  or a Special  Servicer  for
     unpaid  servicing  fees  earned by it and  certain  unreimbursed  servicing
     expenses  incurred by it with  respect to Mortgage  Loans in the Trust Fund
     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  Mortgage 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  Mortgage  Loans  and
     properties;

          (iv) to reimburse the Master  Servicer or any other  specified  person
     for  any  advances  described  in  clause  (ii)  above  made  by it and any
     servicing  expenses referred to in clause (iii) above incurred by it which,
     in the good faith  judgment of the Master  Servicer  or such other  person,
     will not be  recoverable  from the amounts  described  in clauses  (ii) and
     (iii),  respectively,  such reimbursement to be made from amounts collected
     on other  Mortgage Loans in the related Trust Fund or, if and to the extent
     so provided by the related  Pooling  Agreement and described in the related
     Prospectus Supplement,  only from that portion of amounts collected on such
     other Mortgage Loans that is otherwise distributable on one or more classes
     of Subordinate Certificates of the related series;

          (v)  if  and  to  the  extent  described  in  the  related  Prospectus
     Supplement,  to pay the  Master  Servicer,  a Special  Servicer  or another
     specified entity  (including a provider of Credit Support) interest accrued
     on the advances described in clause (ii) above made by it and the servicing
     expenses  described in clause (iii) above  incurred by it while such remain
     outstanding and unreimbursed;

          (vi) to pay for  costs and  expenses  incurred  by the Trust  Fund for
     environmental   site  assessments   performed  with  respect  to  Mortgaged
     Properties that constitute  security for defaulted  Mortgage Loans, and for
     any containment,  clean-up or remediation of hazardous wastes and materials
     present on such Mortgaged  Properties,  as described  under  "--Realization
     Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans";

          (vii) to reimburse the 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 the Master Servicer and
     the Depositor";

                                       46
<PAGE>

          (viii)  if and to  the  extent  described  in the  related  Prospectus
     Supplement, to pay the fees of the Trustee;

          (ix) to  reimburse  the  Trustee  or any of its  directors,  officers,
     employees and agents, as the case may be, for certain  expenses,  costs and

     "--Certain Matters Regarding the Trustee";

          (x)  to  pay  the  Master  Servicer  or  the  Trustee,  as  additional
     compensation,  interest and investment  income earned in respect of amounts
     held in the Certificate Account;

          (xi) to pay  (generally  from  related  income) for costs  incurred in

     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   "Material    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  Mortgage  Loan or a  property  acquired  in  respect  thereof in
     connection with the liquidation of such Mortgage Loan or property;

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

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

          (xvi)  to  clear  and  terminate  the  Certificate  Account  upon  the
     termination of the Trust Fund.

COLLECTION AND OTHER SERVICING PROCEDURES

     The  Master   Servicer   for  any  mortgage   pool,   directly  or  through
Sub-Servicers,  will be  required  to make  reasonable  efforts to  collect  all
scheduled  Mortgage Loan payments and will be required to follow such collection
procedures as it would follow with respect to mortgage loans that are comparable
to such Mortgage  Loans and held for its own account,  provided such  procedures
are  consistent  with (i) the terms of the  related  Pooling  Agreement  and any
related  instrument of Credit Support  included in the related Trust Fund,  (ii)
applicable  law and  (iii)  the  servicing  standard  specified  in the  Pooling
Agreement and in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Servicing Standard").

     The  Master  Servicer  will also be  required  to perform  other  customary
functions of a servicer of comparable  loans,  including  maintaining  escrow or
impound accounts for payment of taxes,  insurance premiums and similar items, or
otherwise  monitoring the timely  payment of those items;  attempting to collect
delinquent payments;  supervising foreclosures;  conducting property inspections
on a periodic or other basis;  managing Mortgaged Properties acquired through or
in lieu of foreclosure  (each, an "REO  Property");  and  maintaining  servicing
records relating to the Mortgage Loans.  Generally,  the Master Servicer will be
responsible  for filing and settling  claims in respect of  particular  Mortgage
Loans under any applicable  instrument of Credit  Support.  See  "Description of
Credit Support."

MODIFICATIONS, WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS OF MORTGAGE LOANS

     A Master  Servicer  may  agree to  modify,  waive or amend  any term of any
Mortgage Loan serviced by it in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard;
provided  that,  the  modification,  waiver or amendment will not (i) affect the
amount or timing of any  scheduled  payments  of  principal  or  interest on the
Mortgage Loan or (ii) in the judgment of the Master Servicer,  materially impair
the security for the Mortgage Loan or reduce the likelihood of timely payment of
amounts due thereon. A Master Servicer also may agree to any other modification,
waiver or amendment  if, in its judgment (i) a material  default on the Mortgage
Loan has occurred or a payment  default is imminent and (ii) such  modification,
waiver or  amendment is  reasonably  likely to produce a greater  recovery  with
respect to the Mortgage  Loan on a present  value basis than would  liquidation.

SUB-SERVICERS

     A Master Servicer may delegate its servicing  obligations in respect of the
Mortgage  Loans  serviced by it to one or more  third-party  servicers  (each, a
"Sub-Servicer"), but the Master Servicer will remain liable for such obligations

                                       47
<PAGE>

under the related Pooling  Agreement  unless  otherwise  provided in the related
Prospectus  Supplement.  Unless  otherwise  provided in the  related  Prospectus
Supplement,  each  sub-servicing  agreement  between  a  Master  Servicer  and a
Sub-Servicer (a "Sub-Servicing  Agreement") must provide that, if for any reason
the Master  Servicer 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.

     Generally,  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 Pooling Agreement is sufficient to pay such
fees.  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 a Pooling Agreement.  See "--Certificate  Account" and
"--Servicing Compensation and Payment of Expenses." 

SPECIAL SERVICERS

     If and to the extent  specified  in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  a
special servicer (the "Special  Servicer") may be a party to the related Pooling
Agreement or may be appointed by the Master Servicer or another  specified party
to perform  certain  specified  duties (for example,  the servicing of defaulted
Mortgage Loans) in respect of the servicing of the related  Mortgage Loans.  The
Master  Servicer will be liable for the  performance of a Special  Servicer only
if, and to the extent, set forth in such Prospectus Supplement.

REALIZATION UPON DEFAULTED MORTGAGE LOANS

     A borrower's  failure to make required Mortgage Loan payments may mean that
operating  income is  insufficient  to service the mortgage debt, or may reflect
the  diversion  of that income  from the  servicing  of the  mortgage  debt.  In
addition,  a borrower  that is unable to make Mortgage Loan payments may also be
unable to make timely payment of taxes and to otherwise  maintain and insure the
related  Mortgaged  Property.  In general,  the related Master  Servicer will be
required to monitor any Mortgage Loan that is in default,  evaluate  whether the
causes  of  the  default  can be  corrected  over a  reasonable  period  without
significant impairment of the value of the related Mortgaged Property,  initiate
corrective  action in cooperation  with the borrower if cure is likely,  inspect
the related  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 any such  corrective  action or
the need for additional initiatives.

     The  time  within   which  the  Master   Servicer   can  make  the  initial
determination of appropriate action,  evaluate the success of corrective action,
develop additional  initiatives,  institute foreclosure proceedings and actually
foreclose (or accept a deed to a Mortgaged  Property in lieu of  foreclosure) on
behalf  of  the  Certificateholders  may  vary  considerably  depending  on  the
particular Mortgage Loan, the Mortgaged Property,  the borrower, the presence of
an acceptable party to assume the Mortgage Loan and the laws of the jurisdiction
in which the  Mortgaged  Property is located.  If a borrower  files a bankruptcy
petition, the Master Servicer may not be permitted to accelerate the maturity of
the related  Mortgage  Loan or to  foreclose  on the  Mortgaged  Property  for a
considerable period of time. See "Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage Loans."

     A Pooling Agreement may grant to the Master Servicer, a Special Servicer, a
provider of Credit  Support  and/or the holder or holders of certain  classes of
Certificates of the related series a right of first refusal to purchase from the
Trust Fund, at a predetermined  purchase price (which,  if insufficient to fully
fund the entitlements of  Certificateholders  to principal and interest thereon,
will be specified in the related Prospectus Supplement), any Mortgage Loan as to
which a specified  number of  scheduled  payments are  delinquent.  In addition,
unless  otherwise  specified in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  the Master
Servicer may offer to sell any  defaulted  Mortgage  Loan 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
of the related Mortgaged Property. Generally, the related Pooling Agreement will
require 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  Mortgage
Loan.  In the  absence of any bid  determined  in  accordance  with the  related
Pooling  Agreement to be fair, the Master Servicer will generally be required to
proceed with respect to such defaulted Mortgage Loan as described below.

     If a default on a Mortgage  Loan has occurred or, in the Master  Servicer's
judgment, is imminent, the Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, may at any


                                       48
<PAGE>

time institute foreclosure proceedings,  exercise any power of sale contained in
the related Mortgage, obtain a deed in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise acquire
title to the related Mortgaged  Property,  by operation of law or otherwise,  if
such action is consistent with the Servicing  Standard.  The Master Servicer may
not, however,  acquire title to any Mortgaged  Property or take any other action
that would  cause the  Trustee,  for the  benefit of  Certificateholders  of the
related series, 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:

          (i) either the  Mortgaged  Property is in compliance  with  applicable
     environmental  laws and regulations or, if not, that taking such actions as
     are necessary to bring the Mortgaged Property into compliance  therewith is
     reasonably  likely to produce a greater  recovery on a present  value basis
     than not taking such actions; and

          (ii) either there are no  circumstances  or conditions  present at the
     Mortgaged  Property  that  have  resulted  in any  contamination  for which
     investigation,  testing, monitoring,  containment,  clean-up or remediation
     could be required under any applicable  environmental  laws and regulations
     or, if such  circumstances  or  conditions  are  present for which any such
     action could be required, taking such actions with respect to the Mortgaged
     Property is  reasonably  likely to produce a greater  recovery on a present
     value basis than not taking such  actions.  See "Certain  Legal  Aspects of
     Mortgage Loans--Environmental Considerations."

     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  within  two years 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 for
more than two years 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  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.  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 its  obligation  to  manage  such  Mortgaged  Property  in a manner
consistent with the Servicing Standard.

     If Liquidation Proceeds collected with respect to a defaulted Mortgage Loan
are less than the outstanding  principal balance of the defaulted  Mortgage Loan
plus interest accrued thereon plus the aggregate amount of reimbursable expenses
incurred by the Master  Servicer with respect to such Mortgage  Loan,  the Trust
Fund will realize a loss in the amount of such  difference.  The Master Servicer
will be entitled to reimburse itself from the Liquidation  Proceeds recovered on
any defaulted  Mortgage  Loan,  prior to the  distribution  of such  Liquidation
Proceeds  to   Certificateholders,   amounts  that  represent  unpaid  servicing
compensation in respect of the Mortgage Loan,  unreimbursed  servicing  expenses
incurred  with respect to the  Mortgage  Loan and any  unreimbursed  advances of
delinquent payments made with respect to the Mortgage Loan.

     If any Mortgaged Property suffers damage that the proceeds,  if any, of the
related hazard insurance  policy are  insufficient to fully restore,  the Master
Servicer  will not be  required  to expend its own funds to restore  the damaged
property  unless  (and to the  extent  not  otherwise  provided  in the  related
Prospectus Supplement) it determines (i) that such restoration will increase the
proceeds  to  Certificateholders  on  liquidation  of the  Mortgage  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. 

HAZARD INSURANCE POLICIES

     Each Pooling  Agreement  may require the related  Master  Servicer to cause
each Mortgage Loan borrower to maintain a hazard  insurance policy that provides
for such coverage as is required under the related  Mortgage or, if the Mortgage
permits the holder thereof to dictate to the borrower the insurance  coverage to
be maintained on the related Mortgaged Property,  such coverage as is consistent
with the requirements of the Servicing Standard. Such coverage generally will be
in an amount equal to the lesser of the principal balance owing on such Mortgage
Loan and the replacement cost of the Mortgaged Property,  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 


                                       49
<PAGE>

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  concerning  covered  losses is furnished by  borrowers.  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  borrower  in  accordance  with the  Master  Servicer's  normal
servicing  procedures and/or to the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage
and Mortgage  Note) will be deposited in the related  Certificate  Account.  The
Pooling  Agreement  may  provide  that  the  Master  Servicer  may  satisfy  its
obligation to cause each borrower to maintain such a hazard  insurance policy by
maintaining  a  blanket  policy  insuring  against  hazard  losses on all of the
Mortgage  Loans in the related  Trust Fund.  If such blanket  policy  contains a
deductible  clause,  the Master  Servicer  will be  required,  in the event of a
casualty covered by such blanket policy,  to deposit in the related  Certificate
Account all sums that would have been deposited  therein but for such deductible
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 covering the Mortgaged  Properties 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,  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
risks.

     The hazard  insurance  policies  covering  the  Mortgaged  Properties  will
typically contain  co-insurance clauses that in effect require an 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  clauses  generally  provide  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.

DUE-ON-SALE AND DUE-ON-ENCUMBRANCE PROVISIONS

     Certain  of the  Mortgage  Loans may  contain  a  due-on-sale  clause  that
entitles the lender to accelerate  payment of the Mortgage Loan upon any sale or
other  transfer of the related  Mortgaged  Property  made  without the  lender's
consent.  Certain of the Mortgage  Loans may also  contain a  due-on-encumbrance
clause that entitles the lender to accelerate  the maturity of the Mortgage Loan
upon the creation of any other lien or encumbrance upon the Mortgaged  Property.
The Master Servicer will determine whether to exercise any right the Trustee may
have  under  any such  provision  in a  manner  consistent  with  the  Servicing
Standard.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,  the
Master Servicer will be entitled to retain as additional servicing  compensation
any fee  collected  in  connection  with the  permitted  transfer of a Mortgaged
Property.  See  "Certain  Legal  Aspects  of  Mortgage   Loans--Due-on-Sale  and
Due-on-Encumbrance."

SERVICING COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES

     Generally,  a Master 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  payments on each  Mortgage  Loan in the related  Trust
Fund.  Since  that  compensation  is  generally  based  on a  percentage  of the
principal  balance of each such Mortgage Loan  outstanding from time to time, it
will decrease in accordance with the  amortization  of the Mortgage  Loans.  The
Prospectus Supplement with respect to a series of Certificates may provide that,
as additional  compensation,  the Master Servicer may retain all or a portion of
late payment  charges,  Prepayment  Premiums,  modification  fees and other fees
collected  from borrowers and any interest or other income that may be earned on
funds held in the Certificate  Account.  Any Sub-Servicer will receive a portion
of the Master Servicer's compensation as its sub-servicing compensation.

     In addition to amounts payable to any  Sub-Servicer,  a Master Servicer may
be required, to the extent provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, to pay
from amounts that represent its servicing compensation certain expenses incurred
in connection  with the  administration  of the related  Trust Fund,  including,
without  limitation,  payment  of the


                                       50
<PAGE>

fees and  disbursements  of  independent  accountants  and  payment of  expenses
incurred in connection  with  distributions  and reports to  Certificateholders.
Certain other  expenses,  including  certain  expenses  related to Mortgage Loan
defaults  and  liquidations  and,  to the  extent  so  provided  in the  related
Prospectus Supplement,  interest on such expenses at the rate specified therein,
and the fees of the  Trustee  and any  Special  Servicer,  may be required to 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  period  to  Prepayment  Interest
Shortfalls.  See  "Yield  and  Maturity  Considerations--Certain  Shortfalls  in
Collections of Interest."

EVIDENCE AS TO COMPLIANCE

     Each Pooling  Agreement may require that, on or before a specified  date in
each year, the Master Servicer cause a firm of independent public accountants to
furnish a statement to the Trustee to the effect that,  based on an  examination
by such firm  conducted  substantially  in  compliance  with  either the Uniform
Single Audit  Program for Mortgage  Bankers or the Audit  Program for  Mortgages
serviced  for FHLMC,  the  servicing  by or on behalf of the Master  Servicer of
mortgage loans under pooling and servicing agreements  substantially  similar to
each other  (which may include  the related  Pooling  Agreement)  was  conducted
through the preceding  calendar year or other specified  twelve-month  period in
compliance  with  the  terms  of such  agreements  except  for  any  significant
exceptions or errors in records  that,  in the opinion of such firm,  either the
Audit  Program for  Mortgages  serviced  for FHLMC or paragraph 4 of the Uniform
Single Audit Program for Mortgage  Bankers,  as the case may be,  requires it to
report. Each Pooling Agreement will also provide for delivery to the Trustee, on
or before a specified  date in each year,  of a statement  signed by one or more
officers  of the Master  Servicer  to the effect  that the Master  Servicer  has
fulfilled its material  obligations under the Pooling  Agreement  throughout the
preceding calendar year or other specified twelve-month period.

     Copies of the annual  accountants'  statement and the statement of officers
of a Master Servicer will be made available to Certificateholders without charge
upon written request to the Master Servicer.

CERTAIN MATTERS REGARDING THE MASTER SERVICER AND THE DEPOSITOR

     The Master  Servicer  under a Pooling  Agreement may be an affiliate of the
Depositor and may have other normal business relationships with the Depositor or
the Depositor's affiliates.  The related Pooling Agreement may permit the Master
Servicer to resign from its  obligations  thereunder  only upon a  determination
that such obligations 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 at the date of the Pooling  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  Pooling  Agreement.  The Master
Servicer  will also be  required  to  maintain  a  fidelity  bond and errors and
omissions policy that provides  coverage against losses that may be sustained as
a result of an officer's or  employee's  misappropriation  of funds,  errors and
omissions  or  negligence,  subject  to  certain  limitations  as to  amount  of
coverage, deductible amounts, conditions, exclusions and exceptions.

     Each  Pooling  Agreement  may  further  provide  that  none  of the  Master
Servicer, the Depositor and any director,  officer,  employee or agent of either
of  them  will  be  under  any   liability   to  the   related   Trust  Fund  or
Certificateholders for any action taken, or not taken, in good faith pursuant to
the Pooling Agreement or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that none of
the Master Servicer, the Depositor and any such person will be protected against
any  breach of a  representation,  warranty  or  covenant  made in such  Pooling
Agreement,  or against any expense or liability that such person is specifically
required to bear pursuant to the terms of such Pooling Agreement, or against any
liability that 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 such  obligations  and  duties.  Unless
otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, each Pooling Agreement
will further provide that the Master  Servicer,  the Depositor and any director,
officer, employee or agent of either of them will be entitled to indemnification
by the related  Trust Fund against any loss,  liability  or expense  incurred in
connection  with any legal action that  relates to the Pooling  Agreement or the
related series of Certificates;  provided,  however,  that such  indemnification
will not  extend to any  loss,  liability  or  expense  (i) that such  person is
specifically  required to bear  pursuant to the terms of such  agreement,  or is
incidental to the  performance of obligations  and duties  thereunder and is not
reimbursable pursuant to the Pooling Agreement; (ii) incurred in connection with
any  breach  of a  representation, 


                                       51
<PAGE>

warranty or covenant made in the Pooling Agreement;  (iii) incurred by reason of
misfeasance,  bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of obligations or
duties under the Pooling  Agreement,  or by reason of reckless disregard of such
obligations or duties;  or (iv) incurred in connection with any violation of any
state or federal  securities  law. In  addition,  each  Pooling  Agreement  will
provide that neither the Master  Servicer  nor the  Depositor  will be under any
obligation  to appear  in,  prosecute  or defend  any legal  action  that is not
incidental to its respective  responsibilities  under the Pooling  Agreement and
that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability. However, each of
the Master Servicer and the Depositor will be permitted,  in the exercise of its
discretion, to undertake any such action that it may deem necessary or desirable
with respect to the  enforcement  and/or  protection of the rights and duties of
the parties to the Pooling Agreement 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 charge the related Certificate Account therefor.

     Subject,  in certain cases, to the satisfaction of certain  conditions that
may be  required  in the  Pooling  Agreement,  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 Pooling Agreement. 

EVENTS OF DEFAULT

     The  "Events of Default  for a series of  Certificates"  under the  related
Pooling Agreement  generally 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  in a timely  manner,  any
amount  required to be so  distributed  or  remitted,  which  failure  continues
unremedied  for five 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  Certificateholders  entitled to not less than
25% (or such other percentage specified in the related Prospectus Supplement) of
the Voting Rights for such series); (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 Pooling  Agreement which  continues  unremedied for sixty
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  Certificateholders  entitled to not less than 25% (or such other
percentage specified in the related Prospectus  Supplement) of the Voting Rights
for such series;  and (iii) certain events of insolvency,  readjustment of debt,
marshalling of assets and  liabilities  or similar  proceedings in respect of or
relating  to the  Master  Servicer  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 add
thereto or  shorten  cure  periods or  eliminate  notice  requirements)  will be
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement. 

RIGHTS UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT

     So  long  as  an  Event  of  Default  under  a  Pooling  Agreement  remains
unremedied,  the  Depositor  or  the  Trustee  will  be  authorized,  and at the
direction  of  Certificateholders  entitled  to not less than 51% (or such other
percentage specified in the related Prospectus  Supplement) of the Voting Rights
for such series,  the Trustee will be required,  to terminate  all of the rights
and  obligations  of the Master  Servicer as master  servicer  under the Pooling
Agreement,  whereupon  the Trustee will succeed to all of the  responsibilities,
duties  and  liabilities  of the Master  Servicer  under the  Pooling  Agreement
(except that if the Master  Servicer is required to make  advances in respect of
Mortgage  Loan  delinquencies,  but  the  Trustee  is  prohibited  by  law  from
obligating  itself  to do  so,  or  if  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement  so
specifies,  the Trustee will not be obligated to make such advances) and will be
entitled to similar  compensation  arrangements.  If the Trustee is unwilling or
unable so to act,  it may (or,  at the  written  request  of  Certificateholders
entitled  to at least 51% (or such other  percentage  specified  in the  related
Prospectus Supplement) of the Voting Rights for such series, it will be required
to) appoint,  or petition a court of competent  jurisdiction to appoint,  a loan
servicing  institution that (unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement)  is acceptable  to each Rating  Agency that assigned  ratings to the
Offered  Certificates  of such series to act as successor to the Master Servicer
under the Pooling  Agreement.  Pending  such  appointment,  the Trustee  will be
obligated to act in such capacity.

     No  Certificateholder  will have the right under any Pooling  Agreement  to
institute any proceeding with respect thereto unless such holder  previously has
given to the Trustee  written  notice of default  and unless  Certificateholders

                                       52
<PAGE>

entitled  to at least 25% (or such other  percentage  specified  in the  related
Prospectus  Supplement)  of the Voting Rights for the related  series shall have
made written  request upon the Trustee to institute  such  proceeding in its own
name as Trustee  thereunder  and shall have  offered to the  Trustee  reasonable
indemnity, and the Trustee for sixty days (or such other period specified in the
related Prospectus  Supplement) shall have neglected or refused to institute any
such proceeding.  The Trustee,  however, will be under no obligation to exercise
any of the trusts or powers vested in it by any Pooling 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  of the related  series,  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 Pooling  Agreement may be amended by the parties thereto,  without the
consent  of any of the  holders  of the  related  Certificates,  (i) to cure any
ambiguity,  (ii) to correct a defective provision therein or to correct,  modify
or supplement  any  provision  therein that may be  inconsistent  with any other
provision therein,  (iii) to add any other provisions with respect to matters or
questions arising under the Pooling Agreement that are not inconsistent with the
provisions thereof,  (iv) to comply with any requirements imposed by the Code or
(v) for any other purpose; provided that such amendment (other than an amendment
for the purpose  specified  in clause (iv)  above) may not (as  evidenced  by an
opinion of counsel to such effect  satisfactory to the Trustee) adversely affect
in any material respect the interests of any such holder. Each Pooling Agreement
may  also be  amended  for any  purpose  by the  parties,  with the  consent  of
Certificateholders  entitled to at least 51% (or such other percentage specified
in the  related  Prospectus  Supplement)  of the Voting  Rights for the  related
series  allocated to the affected  classes;  provided,  however,  that,  no such
amendment  may (i)  reduce in any  manner the amount of, or delay the timing of,
payments  received  or  advanced  on  Mortgage  Loans  that are  required  to be
distributed in respect of 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
clause (i), without the consent of the holders of all Certificates of such class
or (iii)  modify the  provisions  of the  Pooling  Agreement  described  in this
paragraph  without the consent of the holders of all Certificates of the related
series.  However,  unless otherwise  specified in the related Pooling Agreement,
the Trustee will be  prohibited  from  consenting  to any amendment of a Pooling
Agreement  pursuant  to which a REMIC  election is to be or has been made unless
the Trustee  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.

LIST OF CERTIFICATEHOLDERS

     Upon written request of any  Certificateholder  of record made for purposes
of  communicating  with other  holders of  Certificates  of the same series with
respect to their  rights  under the related  Pooling  Agreement,  the Trustee or
other specified person will afford such Certificateholder  access, during normal
business  hours,  to the most recent list of  Certificateholders  of that series
then maintained by such person.

THE TRUSTEE

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

DUTIES OF THE TRUSTEE

     The Trustee for a series of Certificates  will make no representation as to
the validity or sufficiency of the related Pooling  Agreement,  the Certificates
or any Mortgage Loan or related document and will not be accountable for the use
or application  by or on behalf of any Master  Servicer of any funds paid to the
Master  Servicer or any Special  Servicer in respect of the  Certificates or the
Mortgage  Loans,  or any funds  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  will be required to perform  only those  duties  specifically  required
under the related Pooling Agreement. However, upon receipt of any of the various
certificates,  reports  or other  


                                       53
<PAGE>

instruments  required to be furnished  to it pursuant to the Pooling  Agreement,
the Trustee will be required to examine such documents and to determine  whether
they conform to the requirements of the Pooling Agreement.

CERTAIN MATTERS REGARDING THE TRUSTEE

     The   Trustee   for  a  series  of   Certificates   may  be   entitled   to
indemnification,  from amounts held in the related Certificate  Account, for any
loss,  liability  or expense  incurred  by the  Trustee in  connection  with the
Trustee's  acceptance or  administration of its trusts under the related Pooling
Agreement;  provided,  however, that such indemnification will not extend to any
loss,  liability or expense that constitutes a specific liability imposed on the
Trustee pursuant to the Pooling 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.  As  and to  the  extent  described  in  the  related  Prospectus
Supplement,  the fees and normal disbursements of any Trustee may be the expense
of the related Master Servicer or other  specified  person or may be required to
be borne by the related Trust Fund. 

RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL OF THE TRUSTEE

     The Trustee for a series of  Certificates  will be permitted at any time to
resign from its obligations  and duties under the related  Pooling  Agreement by
giving written  notice  thereof to the Depositor.  Upon receiving such notice of
resignation,  the Master  Servicer  (or such other person as may be specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement) will be required to use reasonable efforts to
promptly  appoint a  successor  trustee.  If no  successor  trustee  shall  have
accepted  an  appointment  within a  specified  period  after the giving of such
notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction to appoint a successor trustee.

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus  Supplement,  if at any
time the  Trustee  ceases to be  eligible  to continue as such under the related
Pooling Agreement, or if at any time the Trustee becomes incapable of acting, or
if certain  events of (or  proceedings  in respect of)  bankruptcy or insolvency
occur with respect to the Trustee,  the  Depositor  will be authorized to remove
the Trustee and appoint a successor  trustee.  Unless otherwise  provided in the
related Prospectus Supplement,  in addition,  holders of the Certificates of any
series  entitled  to at least 51% (or such  other  percentage  specified  in the
related  Prospectus  Supplement) of the Voting Rights for such series may at any
time (with or without cause) remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

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

                          DESCRIPTION OF CREDIT SUPPORT

GENERAL

     Credit  Support may be provided  with respect to one or more classes of the
Certificates  of any series,  or with  respect to the related  Mortgage  Assets.
Credit Support may be in the form of a letter of credit,  the  subordination  of
one or more  classes  of  Certificates,  the use of a pool  insurance  policy or
guarantee  insurance,  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 provide credit  enhancement for more
than one series of Certificates to the extent described therein.

     The Credit Support generally will not provide  protection against all risks
of loss and will not guarantee payment to  Certificateholders  of all amounts to
which  they are  entitled  under the  related  Pooling  Agreement.  If losses or
shortfalls  occur that exceed the amount  covered by the Credit  Support or that
are not  covered  by the  Credit  Support,  Certificateholders  will bear  their
allocable share of  deficiencies.  Moreover,  if a form of Credit Support covers
more than one series of Certificates, holders of Certificates of one series will
be subject to the risk that such Credit  Support will be exhausted by the claims
of the holders of  Certificates  of one or more other  series  before the former
receive their intended share of such coverage.

     If Credit  Support  is  provided  with  respect  to one or more  classes of
Certificates of a series,  or with respect to the related Mortgage  Assets,  the
related  Prospectus  Supplement will include a description of (i) the nature and
amount of 


                                       54
<PAGE>

coverage under such Credit  Support,  (ii) any conditions to payment  thereunder
not otherwise  described  herein,  (iii) 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 (iv) 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, generally 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 the  regulatory  agencies that
exercise  primary  jurisdiction  over the conduct of its  business  and (iv) its
total  assets,  and its  stockholders  "equity  or  policyholders"  surplus,  if
applicable,  as of a date that will be 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 from the Certificate Account
on any Distribution Date will be subordinated to the corresponding 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
provided  by a class or classes of  Subordinate  Certificates  in a series,  the
circumstances under which such subordination will be available and the manner in
which the amount of subordination will be made available.

CROSS-SUPPORT PROVISIONS

     If the Mortgage Assets in any Trust Fund 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 MORTGAGE LOANS

     If so provided in the Prospectus  Supplement for a series of  Certificates,
Mortgage  Loans  included in the related  Trust Fund will be covered for certain
default risks by insurance  policies or guarantees.  To the extent  material,  a
copy of each such instrument will accompany the Current Report on Form 8-K to be
filed with the Commission  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 only in the event of 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 will  accompany  the Current  Report on Form 8-K to be
filed with the Commission  within 15 days of issuance of the Certificates of the
related series. 

CERTIFICATE INSURANCE 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

                                       55
<PAGE>

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  will  accompany the 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 (to the extent of  available  funds) 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 specified
in  such  Prospectus  Supplement.  If so  specified  in the  related  Prospectus
Supplement,  the  reserve  fund for a series  may also be funded  over time by a
specified amount of the collections received on the related Mortgage Assets.

     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.  If so
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, reserve funds may be established
to provide  protection  only  against  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.

     If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,  amounts deposited in
any reserve fund will be invested in  Permitted  Investments.  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  for its services.  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. 

CREDIT SUPPORT WITH RESPECT TO MBS

     If so provided in the Prospectus  Supplement for a series of  Certificates,
any MBS  included  in the  related  Trust  Fund  and/or the  related  underlying
mortgage  loans 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  general  summaries  of certain  legal
aspects of loans secured by commercial and multifamily  residential  properties.
Because such legal aspects are governed by applicable  state law (which laws may
differ  substantially),  the summaries do not purport to be complete, to reflect
the laws of any  particular  state,  or to  encompass  the laws of all states in
which the security for the Mortgage Loans (or mortgage loans underlying any MBS)
is situated.  Accordingly,  the  summaries  are  qualified in their  entirety by
reference to the applicable laws of those states.  See "Description of the Trust
Funds--Mortgage  Loans." For  purposes of the  following  discussion,  "Mortgage
Loan" includes a mortgage loan underlying an MBS. 

GENERAL

     Each  Mortgage  Loan will be  evidenced by a note or bond and secured by an
instrument  granting  a  security  interest  in real  property,  which  may be a
mortgage,  deed of trust or a deed to secure debt, depending upon the prevailing
practice  and law in the  state in  which  the  related  Mortgaged  Property  is
located.  Mortgages,  deeds  of  trust  and  deeds to  secure  debt  are  herein
collectively  referred  to as  "mortgage  instruments."  A  mortgage  instrument
creates a lien upon, or grants a title  interest in, the real  property  covered
thereby,  and  represents  the  security for the  repayment of the  indebtedness
customarily  evidenced by a promissory note. The priority of the lien created or
interest  granted  will depend on the terms of the mortgage  instrument  and, in
some cases, on the terms of separate  subordination  agreements or intercreditor
agreements  with others that hold interests in the real property,  the knowledge
of the parties to the  mortgage  instrument  as to the  existence of prior liens
and,  generally,  the order of 


                                       56
<PAGE>

recordation  of the mortgage  instrument  in the  appropriate  public  recording
office.  However,  the lien of a recorded mortgage  instrument will generally be
subordinate to  later-arising  liens for real estate taxes and  assessments  and
other charges imposed under governmental police powers.

TYPES OF MORTGAGE INSTRUMENTS

     There are two parties to a mortgage:  a mortgagor (the borrower and usually
the owner of the subject property) and a mortgagee (the lender).  In a mortgage,
the mortgagor grants a lien on the subject property in favor of the mortgagee. A
deed of trust is a three-party instrument,  among a trustor (the equivalent of a
borrower),  a trustee to whom the real  property is conveyed,  and a beneficiary
(the lender) for whose benefit the  conveyance  is made.  Under a deed of trust,
the trustor grants the property to the trustee, in trust,  irrevocably until the
debt is  paid,  and  generally  with a power  of  sale.  A deed to  secure  debt
typically has two parties. The borrower,  or grantor,  conveys title to the real
property to the grantee,  or lender,  generally with a power of sale, until such
time as the debt is repaid. In a case where the borrower is a land trust,  there
would be an additional party to a mortgage instrument because legal title to the
property is held by a land trustee under a land trust  agreement for the benefit
of the borrower.  At origination of a mortgage loan involving a land trust,  the
borrower  generally  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 related  instrument,
the law of the state in which the real property is located, certain federal laws
and, in some deed of trust  transactions,  the  directions  of the  beneficiary.

LEASES AND RENTS

     Mortgage instruments that encumber  income-producing property often contain
or are  accompanied by an assignment of rents and leases,  pursuant to which the
borrower  assigns to the lender the  borrower's  right,  title and  interest  as
landlord under each lease and the income derived therefrom,  while (unless rents
are to be paid directly to the lender)  retaining a revocable license to collect
the rents for so long as there is no  default.  If the  borrower  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  rates  are  considered  accounts
receivable under the Uniform  Commercial Code ("UCC");  in cases where hotels or
motels constitute loan security, the rates are generally pledged by the borrower
as additional security for the loan. In general,  the lender must file financing
statements in order to perfect its security  interest in the rates 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 rates is
perfected under the UCC, it will generally be required to commence a foreclosure
action or otherwise take possession of the property in order to collect the room
rates following a default.

PERSONALTY

     In the case of  certain  types of  mortgaged  properties,  such as  hotels,
motels and nursing homes, personal property (to the extent owned by the borrower
and  not  previously  pledged)  may  constitute  a  significant  portion  of the
property's value as security.  The creation and enforcement of liens on personal
property are governed by the UCC.  Accordingly,  if a borrower  pledges personal
property as security for a mortgage  loan,  the lender  generally  must file UCC
financing statements in order to perfect its security interest therein, and must
file  continuation  statements,  generally  every five years,  to maintain  that
perfection.

JUNIOR MORTGAGES; RIGHTS OF SENIOR LENDERS

     Some of the  Mortgage  Loans  included  in a Trust  Fund may be  secured by
mortgage  instruments that are subordinate to mortgage instruments held by other
lenders. The rights of the Trust Fund (and therefore the Certificateholders), as
holder of a junior mortgage  instrument,  are subordinate to those of the senior
lender, including the prior rights of the senior lender to receive rents, hazard
insurance and  condemnation  proceeds and to cause the Mortgaged  Property to be
sold upon borrower's default and thereby extinguish the Trust Fund's junior lien
unless the Master Servicer or Special Servicer asserts its subordinate  interest
in a property in a foreclosure  litigation  or satisfies  the  defaulted  senior
loan. As discussed more fully below,  in many states a junior lender may satisfy
a defaulted senior loan in full,  adding the amounts expended to the balance due
on the junior loan. Absent a provision in the senior mortgage instrument or in a
subordination or intercreditor agreement, no notice of default is required to be
given to the junior lender.

                                       57
<PAGE>

     The form of the  mortgage  instrument  used by many  institutional  lenders
confers on the lender the right both to receive all proceeds collected under any
hazard  insurance policy and all awards made in connection with any condemnation
proceedings,  and  (subject to any limits  imposed by  applicable  state law) to
apply such  proceeds  and  awards to any  indebtedness  secured by the  mortgage
instrument in such order as the lender may determine. Thus, if improvements on a
property are damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty,  or if the property
is taken by condemnation, the holder of the senior mortgage instrument will have
the  prior  right to  collect  any  insurance  proceeds  payable  under a hazard
insurance  policy and any award of damages in connection  with the  condemnation
and to apply the same to the senior indebtedness. Accordingly, only the proceeds
in excess of the amount of senior  indebtedness  will be available to be applied
to the indebtedness secured by a junior mortgage instrument.

     The  form  of  mortgage  instrument  used  by  many  institutional  lenders
typically contains a "future advance" clause, which provides,  in general,  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  instrument.  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 an  "optional"  advance.  If the lender is obligated to
advance the additional amounts,  the advance may be entitled to receive the same
priority  as  the  amounts   advanced  at  origination,   notwithstanding   that
intervening junior liens may have been recorded between the date of recording of
the  senior  mortgage  instrument  and  the  date  of the  future  advance,  and
notwithstanding  that the senior lender had actual knowledge of such intervening
junior  liens  at the  time of the  advance.  Where  the  senior  lender  is not
obligated  to advance the  additional  amounts and has actual  knowledge  of the
intervening  junior liens,  the advance may be subordinate  to such  intervening
junior 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 mortgage  instrument used
by many  institutional  lenders  permits  the lender to itself  perform  certain
obligations  of the borrower (for example,  the  obligations to pay when due all
taxes and assessments on the property and, when due, all  encumbrances,  charges
and  liens  on the  property  that  are  senior  to  the  lien  of the  mortgage
instrument,  to maintain hazard  insurance on the property,  and to maintain and
repair the  property)  upon a failure of the borrower to do so, with all sums so
expended  by the  lender  becoming  part  of the  indebtednesss  secured  by the
mortgage instrument.

     The  form  of  mortgage  instrument  used  by  many  institutional  lenders
typically  requires  the borrower to obtain the consent of the lender in respect
of actions affecting the mortgaged property,  including the execution of certain
new leases and the termination or modification of certain existing  leases,  the
performance of certain  alterations to buildings forming a part of the mortgaged
property and the execution of managment and leasing agreements for the mortgaged
property. Tenants will often refuse to execute leases unless the lender 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  lender  may  refuse to
consent to matters  approved by a junior lender,  with the result that the value
of the security for the junior mortgage instrument is diminished. 

FORECLOSURE

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

     Foreclosure  Procedures  Vary From State to State.  Two primary  methods of
foreclosing a mortgage  instrument  are judicial  foreclosure,  involving  court
proceedings, and non-judicial foreclosure pursuant to a power of sale granted in
the mortgage  instrument.  Other  foreclosure  procedures  are available in some
states,  but they are  either  infrequently  used or  available  only in limited
circumstances.  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 requires several years to complete.

     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 


                                       58
<PAGE>

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.

     Non-Judicial  Foreclosure/Power of Sale.  Foreclosure of a deed of trust is
generally  accomplished by a non-judicial  trustee's sale pursuant to a power of
sale  typically  granted  in the  deed of  trust.  A power  of sale  may also be
contained in any other type of mortgage  instrument  (in  particular,  a deed to
secure debt) if applicable law so permits. A power of sale under a deed of trust
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 default by
the borrower and after notice of sale is given in  accordance  with the terms of
the deed of trust and applicable state law. In some states,  prior to such sale,
the  trustee  under the deed of trust must record a notice of default and notice
of sale and send a copy to the  borrower 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  borrower  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  regard to the  acceleration  of the  indebtedness),  plus the lender's
expenses incurred in enforcing the obligation.  In other states, the borrower 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, state law governs the procedure for public sale, the parties entitled
to notice, the method of giving notice and the applicable time periods.

     Limitations  on the Rights of Mortgage  Lenders.  United States courts have
traditionally  imposed  general  equitable  principles  to  limit  the  remedies
available to lenders in  foreclosure  actions.  These  principles  are generally
designed to relieve borrowers from the effects of mortgage defaults 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  actions to determine the cause of the borrower's default
and the likelihood that the borrower 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
borrowers  who are suffering  from a temporary  financial  disability.  In other
cases, courts have limited the right of the lender to foreclose in the case of a
non-monetary  default,  such as a failure to  adequately  maintain the mortgaged
property or an  impermissible  further  encumbrance  of the mortgaged  property.
Finally,  some  courts  have  addressed  the issue of  whether  federal or state
constitutional  provisions  reflecting due process  concerns for adequate notice
require  that a borrower  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
instrument  providing  for a power of sale  does not  involve  sufficient  state
action to trigger constitutional protections.

     Also, a third party may be unwilling to purchase a mortgaged  property at a
public sale because of the difficulty in  determining  the exact status of title
to the property (due to, among other things,  redemption  rights that may exist)
and because of the possibility  that physical  deterioration of the property may
have occurred during the foreclosure  proceedings.  Potential buyers may also be
reluctant  to purchase  property at a  foreclosure  sale as a result of the 1980
decision of the United  States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in Durrett
v. Washington National Insurance Company.  The court in Durrett held that even a
non-collusive,  regularly  conducted  foreclosure sale was a fraudulent transfer
under Section 67d of the former  Bankruptcy  Act (Section 548 of the  Bankruptcy
Code,  Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended, 11 U.S.C. ss.ss. 101-1330 (the
"Bankruptcy  Code"))  and,  therefore,  could  be  rescinded  in  favor  of  the
bankrupt's  estate,  if (i) the  foreclosure  sale was held while the debtor was
insolvent  and not more  than one year  prior to the  filing  of the  bankruptcy
petition and (ii) the price paid for the  foreclosed  property did not represent
"fair consideration"  ("reasonably equivalent value" under the Bankruptcy Code).
Although the  reasoning and result of Durrett were rejected by the United States
Supreme Court in May, 1994, the case could  nonetheless be persuasive to a court
applying a state  fraudulent  conveyance  law with  provisions  similar to those
construed in Durrett. For these reasons, it is common for the lender to purchase
the  mortgaged  property  for an amount  equal to the secured  indebtedness  and
accrued and unpaid interest plus the expenses of foreclosure, in which event the
borrower's  debt will be  extinguished.  Thereafter,  subject to the  borrower's
right in some states to remain in  possession  during a redemption  period,  the
lender  will become the owner of the  property  and have both the  benefits  and
burdens of 


                                       59
<PAGE>

ownership,  including the obligation to pay debt service on any senior  mortgage
loans, to pay taxes,  to obtain  casualty  insurance and to make such repairs as
are necessary to render the property  suitable for sale.  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
lender also will  commonly  obtain the services of a real estate  broker and pay
the broker's  commission in  connection  with the sale or lease 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,
because  of the  expenses  associated  with  acquiring,  owning  and  selling  a
mortgaged  property,  a lender could  realize an overall loss on a mortgage loan
even if the  mortgaged  property is sold at  foreclosure,  or resold after it is
acquired  through  foreclosure,  for an  amount  equal to the  full  outstanding
principal amount of the loan plus accrued interest.

     The holder of a junior  mortgage that  forecloses  on a mortgaged  property
does so  subject  to senior  mortgages  and any other  prior  liens,  and may be
obliged to keep senior  mortgage loans current in order to avoid  foreclosure of
its  interest in the  property.  In  addition,  if the  foreclosure  of a junior
mortgage  triggers the  enforcement  of a  "due-on-sale"  clause  contained in a
senior  mortgage,  the junior mortgagee could be required to pay the full amount
of the senior mortgage indebtedness or face foreclosure.

     Rights of  Redemption.  The purposes of a foreclosure  action are to enable
the lender to realize upon its security and to bar the borrower, and all persons
who  have  interests  in the  property  that  are  subordinate  to  that  of the
foreclosing  lender,  from the  exercise of their  "equity of  redemption."  The
doctrine of equity of redemption provides that, until the property encumbered by
a mortgage has been sold in accordance with a properly conducted foreclosure and
foreclosure  sale,  those having  interests that are  subordinate to that of the
foreclosing  lender have an equity of redemption  and may redeem the property by
paying the entire debt with interest.  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 terminated.

     The equity of redemption is a common-law (non-statutory) right which should
be distinguished from post-sale statutory rights of redemption.  In some states,
after  sale  pursuant  to a deed of  trust or  foreclosure  of a  mortgage,  the
borrower and foreclosed  junior lienors are given a statutory period in which to
redeem the property.  In some states,  statutory  redemption may occur only upon
payment of the  foreclosure  sale  price.  In other  states,  redemption  may be
permitted if the former borrower 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 because the exercise of a right of redemption would
defeat  the title of any  purchaser  through a  foreclosure.  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.

     Anti-Deficiency Legislation. In general, it is expected that some or all of
the Mortgage Loans in a particular  Trust Fund may be nonrecourse  loans,  as to
which recourse in the case of default will be limited to the Mortgaged  Property
and such other assets,  if any,  that were pledged to secure the Mortgage  Loan.
However,  even if a Mortgage  Loan by its terms  provides  for  recourse  to the
borrower's  other assets, a lender's ability to realize upon those assets may be
limited by state law.  For  example,  in some  states a lender  cannot  obtain a
deficiency  judgment against the borrower following  foreclosure or sale under a
deed of trust. A deficiency  judgment is a personal  judgment against the former
borrower equal to the difference between the net amount realized upon the public
sale of the real property and the amount due to the lender.  Other  statutes may
require  the lender to exhaust the  security  afforded  under a mortgage  before
bringing a personal  action against the borrower.  In certain other states,  the
lender has the option of bringing a personal  action against the borrower on the
debt without first exhausting such security;  however,  in some of those states,
the lender,  following  judgment on such personal action,  may be deemed to have
elected a remedy and thus may be precluded from  foreclosing  upon the security.
Consequently, lenders in those states where such an election of remedy provision
exists will usually proceed first against the security. Finally, other statutory
provisions,  designed to protect  borrowers  from  exposure to large  deficiency
judgments  that  might  result  from  bidding  at  below-market  values  at  the
foreclosure sale, limit any deficiency judgment to the excess of the outstanding
debt over the fair market value of the property at the time of the sale.

     Leasehold  Considerations.  Mortgage  loans may be secured by a lien on the
borrower's  leasehold  interest in a ground lease.  Leasehold mortgage loans are
subject to certain risks not associated with mortgage loans secured by a 


                                       60
<PAGE>

lien on the fee estate of the borrower.  The most  significant of these risks is
that if the borrower's leasehold were to be terminated (for example, as a result
of a lease default or the bankruptcy of the ground lessor or the borrower/ground
lessee),  the leasehold mortgagee would be left without its security.  This risk
may be substantially lessened if the ground lease contains provisions protective
of the leasehold mortgagee,  such as a provision that requires the ground lessor
to give the leasehold mortgagee notices of lessee defaults and an opportunity to
cure them, a provision  that permits the leasehold  estate to be assigned to and
by the leasehold  mortgagee or the purchaser at a foreclosure  sale, a provision
that gives the  leasehold  mortgagee  the right to enter into a new ground lease
with the ground lessor on the same terms and  conditions as the old ground lease
or a provision  that  prohibits  the ground  lessee/borrower  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.
Certain mortgage loans,  however,  may be secured by liens on ground leases that
do not contain these provisions.

BANKRUPTCY LAWS

     Operation of 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) to
collect  a debt are  automatically  stayed  upon the  filing  of the  bankruptcy
petition  and,  often,  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  protective of the lender are met, the amount and terms of a mortgage
loan secured by a lien on property of the debtor may be modified  under  certain
circumstances. For example, the outstanding amount of the loan 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, by means of a reduction in the rate of interest and/or an alteration of
the repayment  schedule (with or without  affecting the unpaid principal balance
of the loan),  and/or by an extension (or  shortening)  of the term to maturity.
Some bankruptcy courts have approved plans, based on the particular facts of the
reorganization case, that effected the cure of a mortgage loan default by paying
arrearages over a number of years. Also, a bankruptcy court may permit a debtor,
through its  rehabilitative  plan, to reinstate a loan mortgage payment schedule
even if the lender has  obtained a final  judgment of  foreclosure  prior to the
filing of the debtor's petition.

     Federal  bankruptcy  law may also have the  effect of  interfering  with or
affecting the ability of the secured lender to enforce the borrower's assignment
of rents and leases related to the mortgaged property.  Under Section 362 of the
Bankruptcy  Code, the lender will be stayed from enforcing the  assignment,  and
the legal  proceedings  necessary to resolve the issue could be  time-consuming,
with  resulting  delays in the  lender's  receipt  of the  rents.  However,  the
Bankruptcy  Code has recently been amended to provide that a lender's  perfected
pre-petition  security interest in leases, rents and hotel revenues continues in
the post-petition  leases,  rents and hotel revenues,  unless a bankruptcy court
orders to the contrary "based on the equities of the case." Thus, unless a court
orders otherwise,  revenues from a mortgaged  property  generated after the date
the bankruptcy  petition is filed will constitute  "cash  collateral"  under the
Bankruptcy  Code.  Debtors  may only  use cash  collateral  upon  obtaining  the
lender's  consent or a prior court order  finding that the lender's  interest in
the mortgaged  properties and the cash  collateral is "adequately  protected" as
such term is defined and interpreted under the Bankruptcy Code.

     If a borrower's  ability to make payment on a mortgage loan is dependent on
its receipt of rent payments under a lease of the related property, that ability
may be impaired by the  commencement  of a bankruptcy  proceeding  relating to a
lessee under such lease.  Under the Bankruptcy Code, the filing of a petition in
bankruptcy by or on behalf of a lessee  results in a stay in bankruptcy  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.  In addition,  the Bankruptcy Code generally provides that a
trustee or  debtor-in-possession  may,  subject to  approval  of the court,  (i)
assume the lease and retain it or assign it to a third  party or (ii) reject the
lease.  If the  lease  is  assumed,  the  trustee  or  debtor-in-possession  (or
assignee, if applicable) must 


                                       61
<PAGE>

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,  and any assurances provided to the lessor may, in
fact, be inadequate.  If the lease is rejected, the lessor will be treated as an
unsecured  creditor with respect to its claim for damages for termination of the
lease. The Bankruptcy Code also limits a lessor's damages for lease rejection to
the rent  reserved  under the lease  (without  regard to  acceleration)  for the
greater of one year, or 15%, not to exceed three years, of the remaining term of
the lease. 

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS

     General.  A lender  may be  subject to  environmental  risks when  taking a
security interest in real property. Of particular concern may be properties that
are or have been  used for  industrial,  manufacturing,  military,  disposal  or
certain  commercial  activity.  Such  environmental  risks  include the possible
diminution  of the value of a  contaminated  property  or, as  discussed  below,
potential  liability  for clean-up  costs or other  remedial  actions that could
exceed the value of the property or the amount of the lender's  loan. In certain
circumstances,  a lender may decide to abandon a contaminated mortgaged property
as collateral for its loan rather than foreclose and risk liability for clean-up
costs.

     Superlien Laws.  Under certain laws,  contamination  on a property may give
rise to a lien on the property for clean-up  costs.  In several  states,  such a
lien  has  priority  over  all  existing  liens,  including  those  of  existing
mortgages. In these states, the lien of a mortgage may lose its priority to such
a "superlien."

     CERCLA. The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response,  Compensation and
Liability  Act of 1980,  as amended  ("CERCLA"),  imposes  strict  liability  on
present and past "owners" and "operators" of contaminated  real property for the
costs of clean-up.  Excluded from CERCLA's  definition of "owner" or "operator,"
however,  is a lender that,  "without  participating  in the  management" of the
facility,  holds indicia of ownership primarily to protect his security interest
in the  facility.  This  so-called  secured  creditor  exemption  is intended to
provide a lender  protection from liability under CERCLA as an owner or operator
of contaminated  property.  The secured creditor  exemption,  however,  does not
necessarily protect a lender from liability for cleanup of hazardous  substances
in every  situation.  A secured lender may be liable as an "owner" or "operator"
of a  contaminated  mortgaged  property if agents or employees of the lender are
deemed to have participated in the management of such mortgaged  property or the
operations of the borrower.  Such liability may exist even if the lender did not
cause or contribute to the  contamination  and  regardless of whether the lender
has actually taken possession of a mortgaged property through foreclosure,  deed
in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise.  Moreover, such liability is not limited to
the original or unamortized  principal  balance of a loan or to the value of the
property securing a loan.

     In  addition,  lenders may face  potential  liability  for  remediation  of
releases or petroleum or hazardous  substances  from  underground  storage tanks
under the federal Resource  Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA"),  if they are
deemed to be the  "owners" or  "operators"  of  facilities  in which they have a
security interest or upon which they have foreclosed.

     The federal Asset  Conservation,  Lender  Liability  and Deposit  Insurance
Protection  Act of 1996 (the  "Act")  seeks to clarify  the actions a lender may
take without  incurring  liability as an "owner" or "operator"  of  contaminated
property or underground  petroleum storage tanks. The Act amends CERCLA and RCRA
to provide  guidance on actions that do or do not constitute  "participation  in
management."

     Importantly, the Act does not, among other things: (1) completely eliminate
potential  liability to lenders  under CERCLA or RCRA;  (2) reduce  credit risks
associated   with  lending  to  borrowers   having   significant   environmental
liabilities  or  potential  liabilities,   (3)  eliminate   environmental  risks
associated  with taking  possession  of  contaminated  property  or  underground
storage  tanks or  assuming  control of the  operations  thereof,  or (4) affect
liabilities or potential liabilities under state environmental laws.

     Certain State and Other Federal Laws. Many states have statutes  similar to
CERCLA and RCRA,  and not all of those statutes  provide for a secured  creditor
exemption.

     In a few states, transfers of some types of properties are conditioned upon
cleanup of  contamination.  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 clean up the  contamination  in order to sell or otherwise  transfer
the property.

                                       62
<PAGE>

     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  uninsured  liabilities  of the
borrower may jeopardize the borrower's ability to meet its loan obligations.

     Additional  Considerations.  The cost of  remediating  hazardous  substance
contamination at a property can be substantial.  If a lender becomes liable,  it
can bring an action for contribution  against other potentially  liable parties,
but such parties may be without substantial assets.  Accordingly, it is possible
that such costs could  become a liability  of the Trust Fund and occasion a loss
to the Certificateholders.

     To reduce the likelihood of such a loss, unless otherwise  specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement,  the Pooling and Servicing Agreement will provide
that  the  Master  Servicer,  acting  on  behalf  of the  Trustee,  may not take
possession of a Mortgaged  Property or take over its operation unless the Master
Servicer,  based solely (as to environmental  matters) on a report prepared by a
person who  regularly  conducts  environmental  site  assessments,  has made the
determination  that it is appropriate to do so, as described  under "The Pooling
and Servicing Agreements--Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans."

     If a lender forecloses on a mortgage secured by a property,  the operations
on which are subject to environmental  laws and regulations,  the lender will be
required to operate the property in accordance with those laws and  regulations.
Such  compliance  may  entail  substantial  expense,  especially  in the case of
industrial or manufacturing properties.

     In addition, a lender may be obligated to disclose environmental conditions
on a property to government  entities  and/or to prospective  buyers  (including
prospective  buyers  at a  foreclosure  sale  or  following  foreclosure).  Such
disclosure may result in the imposition of certain  investigation or remediation
requirements or decrease the amount that  prospective  buyers are willing to pay
for the affected  property,  sometimes  substantially,  and thereby decrease the
ability  of the  lender to recoup  its  investment  in a loan upon  foreclosure.

DUE-ON-SALE AND DUE-ON-ENCUMBRANCE

     Certain   of   the   Mortgage   Loans   may   contain   "due-on-sale"   and
"due-on-encumbrance" clauses that purport to permit the lender to accelerate the
maturity  of the  loan  if the  borrower  transfers  or  encumbers  the  related
Mortgaged  Property.  In recent years,  court decisions and legislative  actions
placed substantial  restrictions on the right of lenders to enforce such clauses
in  many  states.  By  virtue,   however,  of  the  Garn-St  Germain  Depository
Institutions  Act of 1982 (the "Garn  Act"),  effective  October 15, 1982 (which
purports to preempt  state laws that  prohibit the  enforcement  of  due-on-sale
clauses by providing, among other matters, that "due-on-sale" clauses in certain
loans  made after the  effective  date of the Garn Act are  enforceable,  within
certain limitations as set forth in the Garn Act and the regulations promulgated
thereunder), a Master Servicer may nevertheless have the right to accelerate the
maturity  of a  Mortgage  Loan that  contains  a  "due-on-sale"  provision  upon
transfer of an interest in the  property,  regardless  of the Master  Servicer's
ability to demonstrate that a sale threatens its legitimate security interest.

SUBORDINATE FINANCING

     Certain of the Mortgage  Loans may not restrict the ability of the borrower
to use the  Mortgaged  Property as security  for one or more  additional  loans.
Where a borrower  encumbers a mortgaged  property with one or more junior liens,
the senior lender is subjected to additional risk.  First, the borrower may have
difficulty servicing and repaying multiple loans.  Moreover,  if the subordinate
financing  permits  recourse to the borrower (as is frequently the case) and the
senior loan does not, a borrower  may have more  incentive  to repay sums due on
the  subordinate  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  borrower  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  borrower is  additionally
burdened.  Third, if the borrower  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. 


                                       63

DEFAULT INTEREST AND LIMITATIONS ON PREPAYMENTS

     Notes and  mortgages may contain  provisions  that obligate the borrower to
pay a late charge or additional interest if payments are not timely made, and in
some  circumstances,  may prohibit  prepayments  for a specified  period  and/or
condition  prepayments  upon the borrower's  payment of prepayment fees or yield
maintenance  penalties.  In  certain  states,  there  are  or  may  be  specific
limitations  upon the late charges that a lender may collect from a borrower for
delinquent  payments.  Certain  states also limit the amounts  that a lender may
collect  from a borrower  as an  additional  charge if the loan is  prepaid.  In
addition,  the  enforceability of provisions that provide for prepayment fees or
penalties  upon an  involuntary  prepayment  is  unclear  under the laws of many
states.

APPLICABILITY OF USURY LAWS

     Title V of the Depository  Institutions  Deregulation  and Monetary Control
Act of 1980 ("Title V") provides that state usury limitations shall not apply to
certain  types of  residential  (including  multifamily)  first  mortgage  loans
originated by certain lenders after March 31, 1980. Title V 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.

     No Mortgage Loan  originated in any state in which  application  of Title V
has been expressly  rejected or a provision  limiting  discount  points or other
charges has been adopted,  will (if originated after that rejection or adoption)
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  are to 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  borrower's
counsel has rendered an opinion that such choice of law provision would be given
effect. 

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 borrower who enters  military  service after the
origination of such  borrower's  mortgage loan  (including a borrower 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  borrower's  active duty  status,  unless a
court orders otherwise upon application of the lender. The Relief Act applies to
individuals  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
individuals 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 with  individuals as borrowers 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  borrower's  period of active
duty status, and, under certain circumstances,  during an additional three-month
period thereafter. 

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 that 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 


                                       64
<PAGE>

financial  resources of the affected site,  owner,  landlord or other applicable
person.  The requirements of the ADA may also be imposed on a foreclosing lender
who succeeds to the  interest of the  borrower as owner or  landlord.  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 borrower of  complying  with the  requirements  of the ADA may be subject to
more stringent requirements than those to which the borrower is subject.

                    MATERIAL FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

GENERAL

     The following is a general  discussion of the anticipated  material federal
income tax  consequences  of the purchase,  ownership and disposition of Offered
Certificates. This discussion is directed solely to Certificateholders that hold
the  Certificates  as capital  assets  within the meaning of Section 1221 of the
Internal  Revenue  Code of 1986 (the  "Code") and it does not purport to discuss
all  federal  income  tax  consequences  that may be  applicable  to  particular
categories of investors,  some of which (such as banks,  insurance companies and
foreign investors) may be subject to special rules.  Further, the authorities on
which this discussion,  and the opinion referred to below, are based are subject
to  change  or  differing  interpretations,  which  could  apply  retroactively.
Taxpayers  and preparers of tax returns  (including  those filed by any REMIC or
other  issuer)  should be aware that under  applicable  Treasury  regulations  a
provider of advice on  specific  issues of law is not  considered  an income tax
return  preparer unless the advice (i) is given with respect to events that have
occurred at the time the advice is rendered and is not given with respect to the
consequences  of  contemplated  actions,  and (ii) is  directly  relevant to the
determination of an entry on a tax return. Accordingly, taxpayers should consult
their own tax advisors and tax return preparers regarding the preparation of any
item on a tax  return,  even  where  the  anticipated  tax  treatment  has  been
discussed herein.  In addition to the federal income tax consequences  described
herein,   potential   investors   should   consider  the  state  and  local  tax
consequences,  if any, of the  purchase,  ownership and  disposition  of Offered
Certificates.  See "State and Other Tax  Consequences."  Certificateholders  are
advised to consult their own tax advisors  concerning the federal,  state, local
or other tax consequences to them of the purchase,  ownership and disposition of
Offered Certificates.

     The following  discussion  addresses  securities of two general types:  (i)
certificates ("REMIC Certificates") representing interests in a Trust Fund, or a
portion  thereof,  that the Master  Servicer or the  Trustee  will elect to have
treated as a real estate mortgage  investment  conduit  ("REMIC") under Sections
860A through 860G (the "REMIC  Provisions")  of the Code, and (ii)  certificates
("Grantor Trust Certificates")  representing interests in a Trust Fund ("Grantor
Trust Fund") as to which no such election will be made. If no REMIC  election is
made and the Trust Fund does not elect to be treated  as a Grantor  Trust  Fund,
the Trust  Fund may elect to be  treated as a  financial  assets  securitization
investment  trust  ("FASIT").  The  Prospectus  Supplement  relating  to such an
election will describe the requirements for the classification of the Trust Fund
as a FASIT and the  consequences to a holder of owning  certificates in a FASIT.
The  Prospectus  Supplement for each series of  Certificates  also will indicate
whether a REMIC election (or elections)  will be made for the related Trust Fund
and, if such an election is to be made,  will  identify all "regular  interests"
and  "residual  interests"  in the REMIC.  For purposes of this tax  discussion,
references to a "Certificateholder" or a "holder" are to the beneficial owner of
a Certificate.

     The   following   discussion  is  limited  in   applicability   to  Offered
Certificates. Moreover, this discussion applies only to the extent that Mortgage
Assets held by a Trust Fund consist solely of Mortgage Loans. To the extent that
other Mortgage Assets,  including REMIC  certificates and mortgage  pass-through
certificates,  are to be held by a Trust Fund, the tax  consequences  associated
with the  inclusion of such assets will be  disclosed in the related  Prospectus
Supplement.  In  addition,  if  Cash  Flow  Agreements,  other  than  guaranteed
investment  contracts,  are  included  in a Trust  Fund,  the  tax  consequences
associated  with such Cash Flow Agreements also will be disclosed in the related
Prospectus   Supplement.   See  "Description  of  the  Trust   Funds--Cash  Flow
Agreements."

     Furthermore,  the  following  discussion  is based in part  upon the  rules
governing  original issue discount that are set forth in Sections  1271-1273 and
1275 of the Code and in the Treasury  regulations  issued  thereunder  (the "OID
Regulations"),   and  in  part  upon  the  REMIC  Provisions  and  the  Treasury
regulations issued thereunder (the "REMIC Regulations").  The OID Regulations do
not adequately address certain issues relevant to, and in some instances provide
that they are not applicable to, securities such as the Certificates. 

REMICS

     Classification  of  REMICs.  Upon  the  issuance  of each  series  of REMIC
Certificates, counsel to the Depositor will deliver its opinion generally to the
effect that,  assuming  compliance  with all  provisions of the related  Pooling

                                       65
<PAGE>

Agreement,  the related  Trust Fund (or each  applicable  portion  thereof) will
qualify as a REMIC and the REMIC Certificates  offered with respect thereto will
be  considered  to evidence  ownership of "regular  interests"  ("REMIC  Regular
Certificates") or "residual  interests" ("REMIC Residual  Certificates") in that
REMIC within the meaning of the REMIC Provisions.

     If an entity  electing to be treated as a REMIC fails to comply with one or
more of the ongoing  requirements of the Code for such status during any taxable
year,  the Code provides that the entity will not be treated as a REMIC for such
year and thereafter.  In that event, such entity may be taxable as a corporation
under  Treasury  regulations,  and the  related  REMIC  Certificates  may not be
accorded the status or given the tax  treatment  described  below.  Although the
Code authorizes the Treasury Department to issue regulations providing relief in
the event of an  inadvertent  termination of REMIC status,  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 Trust
Fund's income for the period in which the  requirements  for such status are not
satisfied.  The  Pooling  Agreement  with  respect to each  REMIC  will  include
provisions  designed to maintain  the Trust  Fund's  status as a REMIC under the
REMIC  Provisions.  It is not anticipated that the status of any Trust Fund as a
REMIC will be terminated.

     Characterization  of Investments  in REMIC  Certificates.  In general,  the
REMIC  Certificates  will be "real estate  assets" within the meaning of Section
856(c)(5)(A) of the Code and assets described in Section  7701(a)(19)(C)  of the
Code in the same  proportion  that  the  assets  of the  REMIC  underlying  such
Certificates would be so treated.  However,  to the extent that the REMIC assets
constitute  mortgages  on property  not used for  residential  or certain  other
prescribed  purposes,  the  REMIC  Certificates  will not be  treated  as assets
qualifying  under  Section  7701(a)(19)(C)(v).  Moreover,  if 95% or more of the
assets of the REMIC  qualify for any of the  foregoing  treatments  at all times
during  a  calendar   year,  the  REMIC   Certificates   will  qualify  for  the
corresponding  status  in  their  entirety  for  that  calendar  year.  Interest
(including original issue discount) on the REMIC Regular Certificates and income
allocated to the class of REMIC Residual Certificates will be interest described
in Section  856(c)(3)(B)  of the Code to the extent that such  Certificates  are
treated as "real estate  assets" within the meaning of Section  856(c)(5)(A)  of
the  Code.  In  addition,  the REMIC  Regular  Certificates  will be  "qualified
mortgages"   within  the  meaning  of  Section   860G(a)(3)  of  the  Code.  The
determination as to the percentage of the REMIC's assets that constitute  assets
described  in the  foregoing  sections of the Code will be made with  respect to
each calendar  quarter based on the average  adjusted  basis of each category of
the assets held by the REMIC during such calendar  quarter.  The Master Servicer
or the Trustee will report those  determinations  to  Certificateholders  in the
manner and at the times required by the applicable Treasury regulations.

     The  assets of the REMIC will  include,  in  addition  to  Mortgage  Loans,
payments on Mortgage Loans held pending  distribution on the REMIC  Certificates
and property  acquired by foreclosure held pending sale, and may include amounts
in reserve accounts. It is unclear whether property acquired by foreclosure held
pending sale and amounts in reserve  accounts  would be considered to be part of
the Mortgage Loans, or whether such assets (to the extent not invested in assets
described in the foregoing  sections) otherwise would receive the same treatment
as the  Mortgage  Loans  for  purposes  of all of  the  foregoing  sections.  In
addition, in some instances Mortgage Loans may not be treated entirely as assets
described in the foregoing  sections.  If so, the related Prospectus  Supplement
will  describe  those  Mortgage  Loans  that may not be so  treated.  The  REMIC
Regulations  do provide,  however,  that payments on Mortgage Loans held pending
distribution  are considered  part of the Mortgage Loans for purposes of Section
856(c)(5)(A) of the Code.

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

     Solely for purposes of determining  whether the REMIC  Certificates will be
"real estate assets" within the meaning of Section 856(c)(5)(A) of the Code, and
"loans secured by an interest in real property" under Section  7701(a)(19)(C) of
the Code, and whether the income on such  Certificates is interest  described in
Section  856(c)(3)(B)  of the Code,  the  Tiered  REMICs  will be treated as one
REMIC.

                                       66
<PAGE>

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.  Certain REMIC Regular  Certificates may be issued
with  "original  issue  discount"  within the meaning of Section  1273(a) of the
Code.  Any holders of REMIC  Regular  Certificates  issued with  original  issue
discount generally will be required to include original issue discount in income
as it accrues,  in accordance with the method described below, in advance of the
receipt of the cash attributable to such income. In addition, Section 1272(a)(6)
of the Code provides special rules applicable to REMIC Regular  Certificates and
certain other debt instruments issued with original issue discount.  Regulations
have not been issued under that section.

     The Code  requires  that a  prepayment  assumption  be used with respect to
Mortgage  Loans  held by a REMIC in  computing  the  accrual of  original  issue
discount  on  REMIC  Regular   Certificates  issued  by  that  REMIC,  and  that
adjustments  be made in the  amount  and rate of  accrual  of such  discount  to
reflect  differences  between  the  actual  prepayment  rate and the  prepayment
assumption. The prepayment assumption is to be determined in a manner prescribed
in Treasury regulations; as noted above, those regulations have not been issued.
The Conference  Committee  Report  accompanying  the Tax Reform Act of 1986 (the
"Committee  Report")  indicates  that  the  regulations  will  provide  that the
prepayment  assumption used with respect to a REMIC Regular  Certificate must be
the same as that used in pricing  the  initial  offering  of such REMIC  Regular
Certificate.  The prepayment  assumption (the "Prepayment  Assumption")  used in
reporting original issue discount for each series of REMIC Regular  Certificates
will be  consistent  with this  standard  and will be  disclosed  in the related
Prospectus Supplement.  However, neither the Depositor nor any other person will
make any  representation  that the Mortgage  Loans will in fact prepay at a rate
conforming to the Prepayment Assumption or at any other rate.

     The original issue discount, if any, on a REMIC Regular Certificate will be
the excess of its stated  redemption price at maturity over its issue price. The
issue price of a  particular  class of REMIC  Regular  Certificates  will be the
first cash price at which a substantial amount of REMIC Regular  Certificates of
that class is sold (excluding sales to bond houses,  brokers and  underwriters).
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 the fair market
value of such class on the Closing Date. Under the OID  Regulations,  the stated
redemption  price of a REMIC  Regular  Certificate  is equal to the total of all
payments to be made on such Certificate  other than "qualified stated interest."
"Qualified stated interest" includes interest that is unconditionally payable at
least annually at a single fixed rate, at a "qualified  floating rate," or at an
"objective  rate,"  a  combination  of a  single  fixed  rate  and  one or  more
"qualified  floating  rates"  or one  "qualified  inverse  floating  rate," or a
combination of "qualified floating rates" that does not operate in a manner that
accelerates or defers interest payments on such REMIC Regular Certificate.

     In the case of  REMIC  Regular  Certificates  bearing  adjustable  interest
rates, the  determination of the total amount of original issue discount and the
timing of the inclusion  thereof will vary according to the  characteristics  of
such REMIC Regular  Certificates.  If the original issue discount rules apply to
such Certificates, the related Prospectus Supplement will describe the manner in
which such rules will be applied with respect to those Certificates in preparing
information returns to the  Certificateholders  and the Internal Revenue Service
(the "IRS").

     In addition,  if the accrued interest to be paid on the first  Distribution
Date is computed with respect to a period that begins prior to the Closing Date,
a portion  of the  purchase  price  paid for a REMIC  Regular  Certificate  will
reflect such accrued interest.  In such cases,  information  returns provided to
the  Certificateholders  and the IRS  will be  based  on the  position  that the
portion of the  purchase  price paid for the  interest  accrued  with respect to
periods prior to the Closing Date is treated as part of the overall cost of such
REMIC  Regular  Certificate  (and not as a  separate  asset the cost of which is
recovered  entirely out of interest received on the next Distribution  Date) and
that portion of the interest  paid on the first  Distribution  Date in excess of
interest  accrued for a number of days  corresponding to the number of days from
the Closing Date to the first Distribution Date should be included in the stated
redemption price of such REMIC Regular Certificate. However, the OID Regulations
state that all or some  portion  of such  accrued  interest  may be treated as a
separate  asset the cost of which is recovered  entirely out of interest paid on
the first  Distribution  Date.  It is unclear  how an election to do so would be
made  under the OID  Regulations  and  whether  such an  election  could be made
unilaterally by a Certificateholder.

                                       67
<PAGE>

     Notwithstanding the general definition of original issue discount, original
issue  discount  on a REMIC  Regular  Certificate  will be  considered  to be de
minimis  if it is less than 0.25% of the  stated  redemption  price of the REMIC
Regular  Certificate  multiplied by its weighted average life. For this purpose,
the weighted  average life of the REMIC Regular  Certificate  is computed as the
sum of the  amounts  determined,  as to  each  payment  included  in the  stated
redemption  price of such REMIC  Regular  Certificate,  by  multiplying  (i) the
number of complete  years  (rounding down for partial years) from the issue date
until such  payment is expected to be made  (presumably  taking into account the
Prepayment  Assumption) by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount
of the payment,  and the denominator of which is the stated  redemption price at
maturity of such REMIC Regular Certificate. Under the OID Regulations,  original
issue  discount  of only a de minimis  amount  (other  than de minimis  original
discount  attributable  to a  so-called  "teaser"  interest  rate or an  initial
interest holiday) will be included in income as each payment of stated principal
is made,  based on the product of the total  amount of such de minimis  original
issue  discount  and a fraction,  the  numerator  of which is the amount of such
principal  payment  and the  denominator  of  which  is the  outstanding  stated
principal  amount of the REMIC Regular  Certificate.  The OID  Regulations  also
would permit a  Certificateholder  to elect to accrue de minimis  original issue
discount into income currently based on a constant yield method. See "--Taxation
of Owners of REMIC Regular  Certificates--Market  Discount" for a description of
such election under the OID Regulations.

     If original issue discount on a REMIC Regular Certificate is in excess of a
de minimis amount, the holder of such Certificate must include in ordinary gross
income the sum of the "daily  portions" of original  issue discount for each day
during  its  taxable  year on  which it held  such  REMIC  Regular  Certificate,
including the purchase date but excluding the  disposition  date. In the case of
an  original  holder  of a REMIC  Regular  Certificate,  the daily  portions  of
original issue discount will be determined as follows.

     As to each "accrual  period," that is, each period that ends on a date that
corresponds  to a  Distribution  Date and begins on the first day  following the
immediately  preceding  accrual period (or in the case of the first such period,
begins on the Closing  Date),  a calculation  will be made of the portion of the
original issue discount that accrued during such accrual period.  The portion of
original  issue  discount  that  accrues in any  accrual  period  will equal the
excess,  if any, of (i) the sum of (a) the present  value,  as of the end of the
accrual period,  of all of the  distributions  remaining to be made on the REMIC
Regular Certificate, if any, in future periods and (b) the distributions made on
such REMIC Regular  Certificate during the accrual period of amounts included in
the stated  redemption  price,  over (ii) the adjusted issue price of such REMIC
Regular Certificate at the beginning of the accrual period. The present value of
the  remaining  distributions  referred  to in the  preceding  sentence  will be
calculated (i) assuming that distributions on the REMIC Regular Certificate will
be received in future  periods  based on the Mortgage  Loans being  prepaid at a
rate equal to the Prepayment  Assumption and (ii) using a discount rate equal to
the  original  yield to maturity of the  Certificate.  For these  purposes,  the
original yield to maturity of the  Certificate  will be calculated  based on its
issue price and assuming that  distributions  on the Certificate will be made in
all accrual periods based on the Mortgage Loans being prepaid at a rate equal to
the  Prepayment  Assumption.  The  adjusted  issue  price  of  a  REMIC  Regular
Certificate at the beginning of any accrual period will equal the issue price of
such  Certificate,  increased by the aggregate amount of original issue discount
that accrued with respect to such  Certificate  in prior  accrual  periods,  and
reduced  by  the  amount  of  any  distributions  made  on  such  REMIC  Regular
Certificate  in  prior  accrual  periods  of  amounts  included  in  the  stated
redemption  price.  The  original  issue  discount  accruing  during any accrual
period,  computed as  described  above,  will be  allocated  ratably to each day
during the accrual  period to  determine  the daily  portion of  original  issue
discount for such day.

     A subsequent  purchaser of a REMIC Regular  Certificate that purchases such
Certificate  at a cost  (excluding  any  portion  of such cost  attributable  to
accrued  qualified stated  interest) less than its remaining  stated  redemption
price will also be required to include in gross income the daily portions of any
original issue  discount with respect to such  Certificate.  However,  each such
daily portion will be reduced,  if such cost is in excess of its "adjusted issue
price," in proportion  to the ratio such excess bears to the aggregate  original
issue discount  remaining to be accrued on such REMIC Regular  Certificate.  The
adjusted issue price of a REMIC Regular  Certificate on any given day equals the
sum of (i) the  adjusted  issue  price  (or,  in the case of the  first  accrual
period,  the issue price) of such  Certificate  at the  beginning of the accrual
period which  includes  such day and (ii) the daily  portions of original  issue
discount for all days during such accrual period prior to such day.

     Market  Discount.  A  Certificateholder  that  purchases  a  REMIC  Regular
Certificate  at a  market  discount,  that is,  in the  case of a REMIC  Regular
Certificate  issued without  original issue  discount,  at a purchase price less
than its 


                                       68
<PAGE>

remaining stated principal amount, or in the case of a REMIC Regular Certificate
issued with original issue discount,  at a purchase price less than its adjusted
issue price will recognize gain upon receipt of each  distribution  representing
stated  redemption  price. In particular,  under Section 1276 of the Code such a
Certificateholder  generally  will be required  to allocate  the portion of each
such distribution  representing  stated redemption price 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.  In addition,  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.  If such an election were made
with  respect  to  a  REMIC  Regular  Certificate  with  market  discount,   the
Certificateholder  would be deemed to have made an election to include currently
market  discount in income  with  respect to all other debt  instruments  having
market discount that such Certificateholder  acquires during the taxable year of
the  election or  thereafter,  and  possibly  previously  acquired  instruments.
Similarly, a Certificateholder that made this election for a Certificate that is
acquired at a premium  would 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 "--Taxation of Owners of REMIC
Regular  Certificates--Premium."  Each of these  elections  to accrue  interest,
discount and premium with respect to a Certificate on a constant yield method or
as interest would be irrevocable.

     However,  market discount with respect to a REMIC Regular  Certificate will
be  considered to be de minimis for purposes of Section 1276 of the Code if such
market discount is less than 0.25% of the remaining  stated  redemption price of
such REMIC Regular  Certificate  multiplied  by the number of complete  years to
maturity  remaining  after the date of its purchase.  In  interpreting a similar
rule  with  respect  to  original  issue  discount  on  obligations  payable  in
installments,  the OID  Regulations  refer to the weighted  average  maturity of
obligations, and it is likely that the same rule will be applied with respect to
market discount,  presumably taking into account the Prepayment  Assumption.  If
market  discount is treated as de minimis  under this rule,  it appears that the
actual  discount would be treated in a manner similar to original issue discount
of  a  de  minimis   amount.   See   "--Taxation  of  Owners  of  REMIC  Regular
Certificates--Original  Issue Discount." Such treatment would result in discount
being  included in income at a slower rate than discount would be required to be
included in income using the method described above.

     Section  1276(b)(3)  of  the  Code  specifically  authorizes  the  Treasury
Department to issue  regulations  providing  for the method for accruing  market
discount on debt instruments, the principal of which is payable in more than one
installment.  Until regulations are issued by the Treasury  Department,  certain
rules described in the Committee  Report apply.  The Committee  Report indicates
that in each accrual period market discount on REMIC Regular Certificates should
accrue, at the Certificateholder's  option: (i) on the basis of a constant yield
method,  (ii) in the case of a REMIC Regular Certificate issued without original
issue  discount,  in an amount that bears the same ratio to the total  remaining
market  discount as the stated  interest paid in the accrual period bears to the
total  amount  of stated  interest  remaining  to be paid on the  REMIC  Regular
Certificate as of the beginning of the accrual period, or (iii) in the case of a
REMIC Regular Certificate issued with original issue discount, in an amount that
bears the same ratio to the total  remaining  market  discount  as the  original
issue  discount  accrued in the accrual period bears to the total original issue
discount  remaining on the REMIC  Regular  Certificate  at the  beginning of the
accrual  period.  Moreover,  the Prepayment  Assumption  used in calculating the
accrual of original issue  discount is also used in  calculating  the accrual of
market discount.  Because the regulations referred to in this paragraph have not
been issued,  it is not possible to predict what effect such  regulations  might
have on the tax treatment of a REMIC Regular Certificate purchased at a discount
in the secondary market.

     To the extent that REMIC Regular  Certificates provide for monthly or other
periodic  distributions  throughout their term, the effect of these rules may be
to require  market  discount  to be  includible  in income at a rate that is not
significantly  slower than the rate at which such  discount  would  accrue if it
were original issue discount. Moreover, in any event a holder of a REMIC Regular
Certificate  generally  will be  required  to treat a portion of any gain on the
sale or exchange  of such  Certificate  as ordinary  income to the extent of the
market  discount  accrued to the date of disposition  under one of the foregoing
methods,  less any  accrued  market  discount  previously  reported  as ordinary
income.

     Further,  under  Section  1277 of the  Code a  holder  of a  REMIC  Regular
Certificate  may be required to defer a portion of its interest  deductions  for
the taxable  year  attributable  to any  indebtedness  incurred or  continued to

                                       69
<PAGE>

purchase or carry a REMIC Regular  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 REMIC Regular  Certificate  purchased at a cost  (excluding any
portion of such cost  attributable to accrued qualified stated interest) greater
than its remaining stated redemption price will be considered to be purchased at
a  premium.  The  holder of such a REMIC  Regular  Certificate  may elect  under
Section 171 of the Code to amortize such premium under the constant yield method
over the life of the  Certificate.  On June 27, 1996,  the IRS  published in the
Federal Register proposed regulations on the amortization of bond premium. Under
those  regulations,  if a holder elects to amortize  bond premium,  bond premium
would be  amortized  on a constant  yield  method  and would be applied  against
qualified stated interest. The proposed regulations generally would be effective
for REMIC Regular  Certificates  acquired on or after the date 60 days after the
date final regulations are published in the Federal  Register.  If made, such an
election will apply to all debt instruments having amortizable bond premium that
the holder owns or subsequently acquires. Amortizable premium will be treated as
an offset to interest  income on the related debt  instrument,  rather than as a
separate interest deduction. The OID Regulations also permit  Certificateholders
to elect to include all  interest,  discount  and  premium in income  based on a
constant yield method, further treating the Certificateholder as having made the
election to  amortize  premium  generally.  See  "--Taxation  of Owners of REMIC
Regular  Certificates--Market  Discount."  The Committee  Report states that the
same rules that apply to accrual of market  discount  (which  rules will require
use of a Prepayment Assumption in accruing market discount with respect to REMIC
Regular  Certificates  without regard to whether such Certificates have original
issue  discount) will also apply in amortizing bond premium under Section 171 of
the Code.

     Realized Losses.  Under Section 166 of the Code, both corporate  holders of
the REMIC Regular  Certificates  and  noncorporate  holders of the REMIC Regular
Certificates  that  acquire  such  Certificates  in  connection  with a trade or
business should be allowed to deduct,  as ordinary losses,  any losses sustained
during a taxable  year in which their  Certificates  become  wholly or partially
worthless as the result of one or more realized losses on the Residential Loans.
However,  it appears  that a  noncorporate  holder that does not acquire a REMIC
Regular  Certificate in connection with a trade or business will not be entitled
to deduct a loss under Section 166 of the Code until such  holder's  Certificate
becomes wholly worthless (i.e., until its outstanding principal balance has been
reduced to zero) and that the loss will be characterized as a short-term capital
loss.

     Each  holder of a REMIC  Regular  Certificate  will be  required  to accrue
interest and original issue discount with respect to such  Certificate,  without
giving effect to any  reductions in  distributions  attributable  to defaults or
delinquencies on the Residential Loans or the underlying  Certificates  until it
can be established  that any such reduction  ultimately will not be recoverable.
As a result,  the amount of taxable income  reported in any period by the holder
of a REMIC  Regular  Certificate  could  exceed  the amount of  economic  income
actually  realized by the holder in such period.  Although the holder of a REMIC
Regular  Certificate  eventually  will  recognize a loss or  reduction in income
attributable  to previously  accrued and included income that as the result of a
realized loss ultimately  will not be realized,  the law is unclear with respect
to the timing and  character of such loss or  reduction  in income.  

TAXATION OF OWNERS OF REMIC RESIDUAL CERTIFICATES

     General.  As residual  interests,  the REMIC Residual  Certificates will be
subject to tax rules that  differ  significantly  from those that would apply if
the REMIC Residual  Certificates were treated for federal income tax purposes as
direct ownership  interests in the Mortgage Loans or as debt instruments  issued
by the REMIC.

     An  original  holder  of a REMIC  Residual  Certificate  generally  will be
required to report its daily  portion of the taxable  income or,  subject to the
limitations  noted in this  discussion,  the net loss of the  REMIC for each day
during  a  calendar   quarter  that  such  holder  owned  such  REMIC   Residual
Certificate.  For this purpose, the taxable income or net loss of the REMIC will
be allocated to each day in the calendar  quarter  ratably  using a "30 days per
month/90  days  per  quarter/360  days per  year"  convention  unless  otherwise
disclosed in the related Prospectus  Supplement.  The daily amounts so allocated
will then be allocated among the REMIC Residual Certificateholders in proportion
to their respective  ownership interests on such day. Any amount included in the
gross  income or allowed as a loss of any REMIC  Residual  Certificateholder  by
virtue of this paragraph will be treated as ordinary income or loss. The taxable

                                       70
<PAGE>

income of the REMIC  will be  determined  under  the  rules  described  below in
"--Taxable  Income of the  REMIC"  and will be  taxable  to the  REMIC  Residual
Certificateholders  without regard to the timing or amount 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
limitations  under  Section  469 of the Code on the  deductibility  of  "passive
losses."

     A holder of a REMIC Residual  Certificate  that purchased such  Certificate
from a prior holder of such  Certificate  also will be required to report on its
federal  income tax return amounts  representing  its daily share of the taxable
income (or net loss) of the REMIC for each day that it holds such REMIC Residual
Certificate.  Those daily  amounts  generally  will equal the amounts of taxable
income or net loss determined as described above. The Committee Report indicates
that certain  modifications  of the general rules may be made,  by  regulations,
legislation  or otherwise to reduce (or increase) the income of a REMIC Residual
Certificateholder  that purchased such REMIC Residual  Certificate  from a prior
holder of such  Certificate  at a price greater than (or less than) the adjusted
basis (as defined below) such REMIC Residual  Certificate  would have had in the
hands of an original holder of such Certificate. The REMIC Regulations, however,
do not provide for any such modifications.

     Any  payments  received  by a holder  of a REMIC  Residual  Certificate  in
connection with the acquisition of such REMIC Residual Certificate will be taken
into  account in  determining  the income of such holder for federal  income tax
purposes.  Although it appears  likely that any such payment would be includible
in income  immediately upon its receipt,  the IRS might assert that such payment
should be included in income over time according to an amortization  schedule or
according  to some other  method.  Because  of the  uncertainty  concerning  the
treatment  of such  payments,  holders  of REMIC  Residual  Certificates  should
consult their tax advisors  concerning the treatment of such payments for income
tax purposes.

     The amount of income REMIC Residual  Certificateholders will be required to
report (or the tax liability  associated with such income) may exceed the amount
of cash  distributions  received  from the REMIC for the  corresponding  period.
Consequently,  REMIC  Residual  Certificateholders  should have other sources of
funds  sufficient  to pay any  federal  income  taxes  due as a result  of their
ownership of REMIC Residual  Certificates or unrelated  deductions against which
income may be  offset,  subject to the rules  relating  to "excess  inclusions,"
residual  interests  without  "significant  value"  and  "noneconomic"  residual
interests  discussed below. The fact that the tax liability  associated with the
income  allocated  to REMIC  Residual  Certificateholders  may  exceed  the cash
distributions  received  by  such  REMIC  Residual  Certificateholders  for  the
corresponding  period may  significantly  adversely  affect such REMIC  Residual
Certificateholders after-tax rate of return.

     Taxable Income of the REMIC. The taxable income of the REMIC will equal the
income  from  the  Mortgage  Loans  and  other  assets  of the  REMIC  plus  any
cancellation of indebtedness  income due to the allocation of realized losses to
REMIC  Regular  Certificates,  less the  deductions  allowed  to the  REMIC  for
interest  (including  original  issue  discount  and  reduced by any  premium on
issuance)  on the  REMIC  Regular  Certificates  (and any  other  class of REMIC
Certificates  constituting "regular interests" in the REMIC not offered hereby),
amortization of any premium on the Mortgage Loans,  bad debt losses with respect
to  the  Mortgage  Loans  and,  except  as  described   below,   for  servicing,
administrative and other expenses.

     For  purposes of  determining  its taxable  income,  the REMIC will have an
initial  aggregate  basis in its assets  equal to the sum of the issue prices of
all  REMIC  Certificates  (or,  if a class  of  REMIC  Certificates  is not sold
initially,  their fair market  values).  Such aggregate  basis will be allocated
among the  Mortgage  Loans and the other  assets of the REMIC in  proportion  to
their respective fair market values.  The issue price of any REMIC  Certificates
offered  hereby  will  be  determined  in  the  manner   described  above  under
"--Taxation of Owners of REMIC Regular  Certificates--Original  Issue Discount."
The issue price of a REMIC  Certificate  received in exchange for an interest in
the Mortgage  Loans or other  property  will equal the fair market value of such
interests in the Mortgage Loans or other property.  Accordingly,  if one or more
classes of REMIC  Certificates  are  retained  initially  rather than sold,  the
Master Servicer or the Trustee may be required to estimate the fair market value
of such  interests in order to determine  the basis of the REMIC in the Mortgage
Loans and other property held by the REMIC.

     Subject to  possible  application  of the de minimis  rules,  the method of
accrual by the REMIC of  original  issue  discount  income  and market  discount
income with respect to Mortgage  Loans that it holds will be  equivalent  to the
method for accruing  original issue discount income for holders of REMIC Regular
Certificates  (that is, under the constant  yield method taking into account the
Prepayment  Assumption).  However,  a REMIC  that  acquires  loans  at a  


                                       71
<PAGE>

market  discount must include such market  discount in income  currently,  as it
accrues,  on a  constant  interest  basis.  See  "--Taxation  of Owners of REMIC
Regular Certificates" above, which describes a method for accruing such discount
income that is analogous  to that  required to be used by a REMIC as to Mortgage
Loans with market discount that it holds.

     A Mortgage  Loan will be deemed to have been  acquired  with  discount  (or
premium) to the extent that the REMIC's basis  therein,  determined as described
in the preceding paragraph, is less than (or greater than) its stated redemption
price.  Any such  discount  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  original  issue
discount on the REMIC Regular  Certificates.  It is anticipated  that each REMIC
will elect under Section 171 of the Code to amortize any premium on the Mortgage
Loans.  Premium on any  Mortgage  Loan to which  such  election  applies  may be
amortized  under a constant  yield  method,  presumably  taking  into  account a
Prepayment Assumption. Further, such an election would not apply to any Mortgage
Loan  originated  on or before  September 27, 1985.  Instead,  premium on such a
Mortgage Loan should be allocated  among the principal  payments  thereon and be
deductible by the REMIC as those  payments  become due or upon the prepayment of
such Mortgage Loan.

     A REMIC will be allowed deductions for interest  (including  original issue
discount) on the REMIC Regular Certificates  (including any other class of REMIC
Certificates  constituting  "regular interests" in the REMIC not offered hereby)
equal to the deductions that would be allowed if the REMIC Regular  Certificates
(including  any  other  class  of  REMIC  Certificates   constituting   "regular
interests"  in the REMIC not offered  hereby)  were  indebtedness  of the REMIC.
Original  issue  discount  will be  considered  to accrue  for this  purpose  as
described    above   under    "--Taxation    of   Owners   of   REMIC    Regular
Certificates--Original  Issue Discount," except that the de minimis rule and the
adjustments for subsequent holders of REMIC Regular Certificates  (including any
other class of REMIC Certificates  constituting "regular interests" in the REMIC
not offered hereby) described therein will not apply.

     If a class of REMIC Regular  Certificates is issued at a price in excess of
the stated redemption price of such class (such excess "Issue Premium"), the net
amount of interest  deductions  that are allowed the REMIC in each  taxable year
with respect to the REMIC Regular  Certificates of such class will be reduced by
an amount  equal to the portion of the Issue  Premium that is  considered  to be
amortized or repaid in that year.  Although the matter is not entirely  certain,
it is likely that Issue Premium would be amortized under a constant yield method
in a  manner  analogous  to the  method  of  accruing  original  issue  discount
described    above   under    "--Taxation    of   Owners   of   REMIC    Regular
Certificates--Original Issue Discount."

     As a general rule,  the taxable income of a REMIC will be determined in the
same manner as if the REMIC were an  individual  having the calendar year as its
taxable year and using the accrual  method of  accounting.  However,  no item of
income,  gain, loss or deduction  allocable to a prohibited  transaction will be
taken into account.  See "--Prohibited  Transactions Tax and Other Taxes" below.
Further,  the  limitation  on  miscellaneous   itemized  deductions  imposed  on
individuals by Section 67 of the Code (which allows such  deductions only to the
extent they exceed in the aggregate two percent of the taxpayer's adjusted gross
income) will not be applied at the REMIC level so that the REMIC will be allowed
deductions  for servicing,  administrative  and other  non-interest  expenses in
determining  its  taxable  income.  All such  expenses  will be  allocated  as a
separate item to the holders of REMIC Certificates, subject to the limitation of
Section 67 of the Code. See "--Possible  Pass-Through of Miscellaneous  Itemized
Deductions." If the deductions  allowed to the REMIC exceed its gross income for
a  calendar  quarter,  such  excess  will be the net loss for the REMIC for that
calendar quarter.

     Basis Rules,  Net Losses and  Distributions.  The adjusted basis of a REMIC
Residual  Certificate  will be equal to the amount paid for such REMIC  Residual
Certificate,  increased by amounts  included in the income of the REMIC Residual
Certificateholder  and decreased (but not below zero) by distributions made, and
by net losses allocated, to such REMIC Residual Certificateholder.

     A REMIC Residual  Certificateholder is not allowed to take into account any
net loss for any calendar quarter to the extent such net loss exceeds such REMIC
Residual Certificateholder's adjusted basis in its REMIC Residual Certificate as
of the close of such calendar  quarter  (determined  without  regard to such net
loss).  Any loss that is not currently  deductible by reason of this  limitation
may be carried forward  indefinitely to future calendar quarters and, subject to
the same  limitation,  may be used only to offset income from the REMIC Residual
Certificate.  The  ability of REMIC  Residual  Certificateholders  to deduct net
losses may be  subject to  additional  limitations  under the Code,  as to which
REMIC Residual Certificateholders should consult their tax advisors.

                                       72
<PAGE>

     Any  distribution  on a REMIC  Residual  Certificate  will be  treated as a
non-taxable  return of capital  to the  extent it does not  exceed the  holder's
adjusted basis in such REMIC Residual Certificate.  To the extent a distribution
on a REMIC Residual  Certificate exceeds such adjusted basis, it will be treated
as gain from the sale of such  REMIC  Residual  Certificate.  Holders of certain
REMIC Residual  Certificates may be entitled to distributions  early in the term
of the  related  REMIC  under  circumstances  in which their bases in such REMIC
Residual  Certificates  will not be sufficiently  large that such  distributions
will be treated as  nontaxable  returns of  capital.  Their  bases in such REMIC
Residual  Certificates  will  initially  equal the  amount  paid for such  REMIC
Residual Certificates and will be increased by their allocable shares of taxable
income of the Trust Fund. However,  such bases increases may not occur until the
end of the  calendar  quarter,  or perhaps the end of the  calendar  year,  with
respect to which such REMIC  taxable  income is allocated to the REMIC  Residual
Certificateholders. To the extent such REMIC Residual Certificateholders initial
bases are less than the distributions to such REMIC Residual Certificateholders,
and  increases in such initial  bases either occur after such  distributions  or
(together   with  their  initial  bases)  are  less  than  the  amount  of  such
distributions, gain will be recognized to such REMIC Residual Certificateholders
on such  distributions  and will be treated as gain from the sale of their REMIC
Residual Certificates.

     The effect of these rules is that a REMIC  Residual  Certificateholder  may
not amortize its basis in a REMIC Residual Certificate, but may only recover its
basis  through  distributions,  through the  deduction  of any net losses of the
REMIC or upon the sale of its REMIC Residual Certificate.  See "--Sales of REMIC
Certificates."  For a discussion of possible  modifications  of these rules that
may require  adjustments to income of a holder of a REMIC  Residual  Certificate
other than an  original  holder in order to reflect any  difference  between the
cost of such REMIC Residual Certificate to such REMIC Residual Certificateholder
and the adjusted basis such REMIC Residual  Certificate  would have in the hands
of  an  original   holder,   see   "--Taxation   of  Owners  of  REMIC  Residual
Certificates--General."

     Excess Inclusions. Any "excess inclusions" with respect to a REMIC Residual
Certificate  will, with an exception  discussed below for certain REMIC Residual
Certificates  held by thrift  institutions,  be subject to federal income tax in
all events.

     In  general,  the  "excess  inclusions"  with  respect to a REMIC  Residual
Certificate for any calendar quarter will be the excess,  if any, of (i) the sum
of the daily portions of REMIC taxable  income  allocable to such REMIC Residual
Certificate  over (ii) the sum of the "daily  accruals"  (as defined  below) for
each day during such quarter that such REMIC  Residual  Certificate  was held by
such REMIC  Residual  Certificateholder.  The daily accruals of a REMIC Residual
Certificateholder will be determined by allocating to each day during a calendar
quarter its ratable  portion of the product of the "adjusted issue price" of the
REMIC Residual  Certificate at the beginning of the calendar quarter and 120% of
the  "long-term  Federal rate" in effect on the Closing Date.  For this purpose,
the adjusted issue price of a REMIC Residual  Certificate as of the beginning of
any  calendar  quarter  will be equal to the issue  price of the REMIC  Residual
Certificate,  increased by the sum of the daily  accruals for all prior quarters
and  decreased  (but not below zero) by any  distributions  made with respect to
such REMIC Residual  Certificate before the beginning of such quarter. The issue
price of a REMIC  Residual  Certificate  is the  initial  offering  price to the
public (excluding bond houses and brokers) at which a substantial  amount of the
REMIC  Residual  Certificates  were sold.  The  "long-term  Federal  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.

     For REMIC Residual Certificateholders,  an excess inclusion (i) will not be
permitted  to be offset by  deductions,  losses or loss  carryovers  from  other
activities,  (ii) will be treated as "unrelated  business  taxable income" to an
otherwise  tax-exempt  organization  and (iii) will not be eligible for any rate
reduction or exemption  under any  applicable tax treaty with respect to the 30%
United  States  withholding  tax  imposed  on  distributions  to REMIC  Residual
Certificateholders  that  are  foreign  investors.   See,  however,   "--Foreign
Investors in REMIC Certificates" below.

     As an exception to the general rules described above,  thrift  institutions
are allowed to offset their excess inclusions with unrelated deductions,  losses
or loss carryovers,  but only if the REMIC Residual  Certificates are considered
to have "significant  value." The REMIC Regulations  provide that in order to be
treated as having significant  value, the REMIC Residual  Certificates must have
an aggregate  issue price,  at least equal to two percent of the aggregate issue
prices of all of the related  REMIC's  Regular  and  Residual  Certificates.  In
addition,  based on the Prepayment Assumption,  the anticipated weighted average
life of the REMIC Residual  Certificates  must equal or exceed 20 percent of the
anticipated  weighted  average  life  of the  REMIC,  based  on  the  Prepayment
Assumption  and  


                                       73
<PAGE>

on any required or permitted clean up calls or required liquidation provided for
in the  REMIC's  organizational  documents.  Although  it has not done  so,  the
Treasury  also has  authority to issue  regulations  that would treat the entire
amount of income accruing on a REMIC Residual Certificate as an excess inclusion
if the REMIC  Residual  Certificates  are  considered  not to have  "significant
value." The related  Prospectus  Supplement will disclose  whether offered REMIC
Residual  Certificates may be considered to have  "significant  value" under the
REMIC Regulations;  provided, however, that any disclosure that a REMIC Residual
Certificate   will  have   "significant   value"  will  be  based  upon  certain
assumptions, and the Depositor will make no representation that a REMIC Residual
Certificate will have  "significant  value" for purposes of the  above-described
rules. The  above-described  exception for thrift  institutions  applies only to
those  residual  interests  held  directly by, and  deductions,  losses and loss
carryovers  incurred  by,  such  institutions  (and not by other  members  of an
affiliated group of corporations  filing a consolidated income tax return) or by
certain wholly-owned direct subsidiaries of such institutions formed or operated
exclusively  in connection  with the  organization  and operation of one or more
REMICs.

     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 Section  857(b)(2) of the
Code,  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. Treasury regulations yet to be issued could apply a similar rule to
regulated investment companies, common trust funds and certain cooperatives; the
REMIC Regulations currently do not address this subject.

     Noneconomic  REMIC  Residual  Certificates.  Under the  REMIC  Regulations,
transfers of "noneconomic"  REMIC Residual  Certificates will be disregarded for
all federal income tax purposes if "a significant purpose of the transfer was to
enable the  transferor  to impede the  assessment or collection of tax." If such
transfer is disregarded, the purported transferor will continue to remain liable
for any  taxes  due with  respect  to the  income  on such  "noneconomic"  REMIC
Residual  Certificate.  The  REMIC  Regulations  provide  that a REMIC  Residual
Certificate is noneconomic unless, based on the Prepayment Assumption and on any
required or permitted  clean up calls, or required  liquidation  provided for in
the REMIC's  organizational  documents,  (1) the present  value of the  expected
future  distributions  (discounted  using  the  "applicable  Federal  rate"  for
obligations  whose term ends on the close of the last  quarter  in which  excess
inclusions   are  expected  to  accrue  with  respect  to  the  REMIC   Residual
Certificate,  which rate is computed  and  published  monthly by the IRS) on the
REMIC Residual Certificate equals at least the present value of the expected tax
on the anticipated excess inclusions,  and (2) the transferor reasonably expects
that the  transferee  will  receive  distributions  with  respect  to the  REMIC
Residual  Certificate  at or after the time the taxes accrue on the  anticipated
excess  inclusions  in an  amount  sufficient  to  satisfy  the  accrued  taxes.
Accordingly,  all transfers of REMIC Residual  Certificates  that may constitute
noneconomic residual interests will be subject to certain restrictions under the
terms  of the  related  Pooling  Agreement  that  are  intended  to  reduce  the
possibility  of any such transfer  being  disregarded.  Such  restrictions  will
require each party to a transfer to provide an affidavit that no purpose of such
transfer is to impede the  assessment or collection  of tax,  including  certain
representations as to the financial condition of the prospective transferee,  as
to which the transferor is also required to make a reasonable  investigation  to
determine  such  transferee's  historic  payment  of its  debts and  ability  to
continue to pay its debts as they come due in the future.  Prior to purchasing a
REMIC  Residual   Certificate,   prospective   purchasers  should  consider  the
possibility that a purported transfer of such REMIC Residual Certificate by such
a purchaser  to another  purchaser  at some future  date may be  disregarded  in
accordance with the above-described rules which would result in the retention of
tax liability by such purchaser.

     The related  Prospectus  Supplement  will  disclose  whether  offered REMIC
Residual Certificates may be considered  "noneconomic"  residual interests under
the REMIC  Regulations;  provided,  however,  that any  disclosure  that a REMIC
Residual  Certificate  will not be considered  "noneconomic"  will be based upon
certain assumptions,  and the Depositor will make no representation that a REMIC
Residual  Certificate will not be considered  "noneconomic"  for purposes of the
above-described  rules.  See "--Foreign  Investors in REMIC  Certificates--REMIC
Residual Certificates" below for additional restrictions applicable to transfers
of certain REMIC Residual Certificates to foreign persons.

     Mark-to-Market  Rules.  On  December  24,  1996,  the  IRS  released  final
regulations (the "Mark-to-Market  Regulations") relating to the requirement that
a securities dealer mark to market  securities held for sale to customers.  


                                       74
<PAGE>

This  mark-to-market  requirement  applies to all securities  owned by a dealer,
except to the extent that the dealer has  specifically  identified a security as
held for investment. The Mark-to-Market Regulations provide that for purposes of
this  mark-to-market  requirement,  a REMIC  Residual  Certificate  issued after
January  4,  1995 is not  treated  as a  security  and thus may not be marked to
market.  Prospective  purchasers of REMIC  Residual  Certificate  should consult
their tax advisors  regarding  the possible  application  of the  mark-to-market
requirement to REMIC Residual Certificates.

     Possible  Pass-Through  of  Miscellaneous  Itemized  Deductions.  Fees  and
expenses of a REMIC  generally  will be  allocated to the holders of the related
REMIC Residual  Certificates.  The  applicable  Treasury  regulations  indicate,
however,  that in the case of a REMIC that is similar to a single class  grantor
trust,  all or a portion of such fees and  expenses  should be  allocated to the
holders of the related REMIC Regular  Certificates.  Unless  otherwise stated in
the related Prospectus  Supplement,  such fees and expenses will be allocated to
holders of the related REMIC Residual  Certificates in their entirety and not to
the holders of the related REMIC Regular Certificates.

     With respect to REMIC Residual  Certificates or REMIC Regular  Certificates
the holders of which  receive an  allocation  of fees and expenses in accordance
with the preceding discussion, if any holder thereof is an individual, estate or
trust, or a "pass-through entity" beneficially owned by one or more individuals,
estates or trusts, (i) an amount equal to such individual's, estate's or trust's
share of such fees and expenses will be added to the gross income of such holder
and (ii) such individual's,  estate's or trust's share of such fees and expenses
will be treated as a miscellaneous  itemized deduction  allowable subject to the
limitation of Section 67 of the Code,  which permits such deductions only to the
extent they exceed in the aggregate two percent of a taxpayer's  adjusted  gross
income. In addition, Section 68 of the Code provides that the amount of itemized
deductions  otherwise  allowable for an individual  whose  adjusted gross income
exceeds a specified amount will be reduced by the lesser of (i) 3% of the excess
of the  individual's  adjusted  gross income over such amount or (ii) 80% of the
amount of itemized  deductions  otherwise  allowable for the taxable  year.  The
amount of additional taxable income reportable by REMIC  Certificateholders that
are subject to the  limitations  of either  Section 67 or Section 68 of the Code
may be substantial.  Furthermore, in determining the alternative minimum taxable
income of such a holder of a REMIC Certificate that is an individual,  estate or
trust, or a "pass-through entity" beneficially owned by one or more individuals,
estates or trusts,  no  deduction  will be allowed for such  holder's  allocable
portion of servicing  fees and other  miscellaneous  itemized  deductions of the
REMIC,  even  though  an  amount  equal to the  amount  of such  fees and  other
deductions  will be included in such holder's  gross income.  Accordingly,  such
REMIC Certificates may not be appropriate investments for individuals,  estates,
or  trusts,  or  pass-through   entities  beneficially  owned  by  one  or  more
individuals,  estates or trusts.  Such  prospective  investors  should carefully
consult  with  their own tax  advisors  prior to making  an  investment  in such
Certificates.

     Sales of REMIC  Certificates.  If a REMIC  Certificate is sold, the selling
Certificateholder  will recognize  gain or loss equal to the difference  between
the amount realized on the sale and its adjusted basis in the REMIC Certificate.
The adjusted basis of a REMIC Regular Certificate  generally will equal the cost
of such REMIC Regular Certificate to such Certificateholder, increased by income
reported  by  such   Certificateholder   with  respect  to  such  REMIC  Regular
Certificate  (including  original issue discount and market discount income) and
reduced (but not below zero) by distributions on such REMIC Regular  Certificate
received by such  Certificateholder  and by any amortized premium.  The adjusted
basis of a REMIC  Residual  Certificate  will be determined  as described  under
"--Taxation of Owners of REMIC Residual  Certificates--Basis  Rules,  Net Losses
and Distributions." Except as provided in the following two paragraphs, any such
gain or loss will be capital gain or loss,  provided such REMIC  Certificate  is
held as a capital asset  (generally,  property held for  investment)  within the
meaning of Section 1221 of the Code. The Code as of the date of this  Prospectus
provides  for a top  marginal  tax rate of 39.6% for  individuals  and a maximum
marginal rate for long-term  capital gains of  individuals  of 20%. No such rate
differential  exists for corporations.  In addition,  the distinction  between a
capital  gain or loss and  ordinary  income or loss  remains  relevant for other
purposes.

     Gain from the sale of a REMIC Regular  Certificate  that might otherwise be
capital gain will be treated as ordinary income to the extent such gain does not
exceed the excess,  if any, of (i) the amount that would have been includible in
the seller's income with respect to such REMIC Regular Certificate assuming that
income had accrued  thereon at a rate equal to 110% of the  "applicable  Federal
rate"  (generally,  a rate based on an average  of  current  yields on  Treasury
securities having a maturity  comparable to that of the Certificate based on the
application  of the  Prepayment  Assumption to such  Certificate,  which rate is
computed  and  published  monthly  by the  IRS),  determined  as of the  date of
purchase  of such REMIC  Regular  Certificate,  over (ii) the amount of ordinary
income  actually 


                                       75
<PAGE>

includible  in the  seller's  income  prior  to such  sale.  In  addition,  gain
recognized on the sale of a REMIC Regular  Certificate by a seller who purchased
such REMIC Regular  Certificate at a market discount will be taxable as ordinary
income in an amount not  exceeding  the portion of such  discount  that  accrued
during the period such REMIC Certificate was held by such holder, reduced by any
market  discount  included  in  income  under the rules  described  above  under
"--Taxation  of  Owners  of REMIC  Regular  Certificates--Market  Discount"  and
"--Premium."

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

     A portion  of any gain from the sale of a REMIC  Regular  Certificate  that
might  otherwise be capital gain may be treated as ordinary income to the extent
that such Certificate is held as part of a "conversion  transaction"  within the
meaning of Section 1258 of the Code. A conversion  transaction  generally is one
in which the  taxpayer  has taken two or more  positions  in the same or similar
property  that reduce or eliminate  market  risk,  if  substantially  all of the
taxpayer's  return  is  attributable  to the time  value of the  taxpayer's  net
investment in such  transaction.  The amount of gain so realized in a conversion
transaction that is recharacterized as ordinary income generally will not exceed
the amount of interest that would have accrued on the  taxpayer's net investment
at 120% of the appropriate "applicable Federal rate" (which rate is computed and
published  monthly  by the  IRS)  at the  time  the  taxpayer  enters  into  the
conversion transaction,  subject to appropriate reduction for prior inclusion of
interest and other ordinary income items from the transaction.

     Finally,  a taxpayer  may elect to have net capital  gain taxed at ordinary
income  rates  rather  than  capital  gains  rates in order to include  such net
capital gain in total net  investment  income for the taxable year, for purposes
of the rule that limits the  deduction of interest on  indebtedness  incurred to
purchase or carry  property held for  investment to a taxpayer's  net investment
income.

     Except as may be provided in Treasury  regulations yet to be issued, if the
seller of a REMIC Residual Certificate  reacquires a REMIC Residual Certificate,
or acquires any other residual  interest in a REMIC or any similar interest in a
"taxable  mortgage pool" (as defined in Section  7701(i) of the Code) 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 Section 1091 of
the  Code.   In  that  event,   any  loss   realized   by  the  REMIC   Residual
Certificateholder on the sale will not be deductible,  but instead will be added
to such REMIC Residual  Certificateholder's adjusted basis in the newly-acquired
asset.

     Prohibited  Transactions  Tax and Other  Taxes.  The Code  imposes a tax on
REMICs equal to 100% of the net income derived from "prohibited transactions" (a
"Prohibited  Transactions  Tax").  In  general,  subject  to  certain  specified
exceptions a prohibited  transaction  means the  disposition of a Mortgage Loan,
the receipt of income from a source other than a Mortgage  Loan 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 Loans
for temporary investment pending  distribution on the REMIC Certificates.  It is
not  anticipated  that the REMIC will engage in any prohibited  transactions  in
which it would recognize a material amount of net income.

     In addition,  certain  contributions to a REMIC made after the day on which
the REMIC issues all of its interests could result in the imposition of a tax on
the  REMIC  equal  to  100%  of  the  value  of  the  contributed   property  (a
"Contributions Tax"). Each Pooling Agreement will include provisions designed to
prevent the acceptance of any contributions that would be subject to such tax.

     REMICs also are 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 gain from the sale of a foreclosure  property that is
inventory  property  and gross  income  from  foreclosure  property  other  than
qualifying rents and other qualifying income for a real estate investment trust.
Unless  otherwise  disclosed  in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  it is not
anticipated that any REMIC will recognize "net income from foreclosure property"
subject to federal income tax.

     Unless otherwise disclosed in the related Prospectus Supplement,  it is not
anticipated  that any material  state or local  income or franchise  tax will be
imposed on any REMIC.

     Unless otherwise stated in the related  Prospectus  Supplement,  and to the
extent  permitted by then  applicable  laws,  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 the REMIC will be borne by
the related Master Servicer,  Special 


                                       76
<PAGE>

Servicer or Trustee in any case out of its own funds,  provided that such person
has sufficient assets to do so, and provided further that such tax arises out of
a breach of such person's obligations under the related Pooling Agreement and in
respect of compliance  with applicable  laws and  regulations.  Any such tax not
borne by a Master Servicer,  Special Servicer or Trustee will be charged against
the related Trust Fund resulting in a reduction in amounts payable to holders of
the related REMIC Certificates.

     Tax and Restrictions on Transfers of REMIC Residual Certificates to Certain
Organizations. If a REMIC Residual Certificate is transferred to a "disqualified
organization"  (as  defined  below),  a  tax  would  be  imposed  in  an  amount
(determined under the REMIC Regulations) equal to the product of (i) the present
value (discounted using the "applicable Federal rate" for obligations whose term
ends on the close of the last quarter in which excess inclusions are expected to
accrue with respect to the REMIC  Residual  Certificate,  which rate is computed
and published  monthly by the IRS) of the total  anticipated  excess  inclusions
with respect to such REMIC Residual  Certificate  for periods after the transfer
and  (ii)  the  highest   marginal   federal  income  tax  rate   applicable  to
corporations.  The  anticipated  excess  inclusions must be determined as of the
date that the REMIC Residual  Certificate  is  transferred  and must be based on
events  that  have  occurred  up to the time of such  transfer,  the  Prepayment
Assumption and any required or permitted clean up calls or required  liquidation
provided for in the REMIC's organizational documents. Such a tax generally would
be imposed on the  transferor  of the REMIC  Residual  Certificate,  except that
where such transfer is through an agent for a disqualified organization, the tax
would  instead  be imposed  on such  agent.  However,  a  transferor  of a REMIC
Residual  Certificate would in no event be liable for such tax with respect to a
transfer if the  transferee  furnishes to the  transferor an affidavit  that the
transferee  is  not a  disqualified  organization  and,  as of the  time  of the
transfer,  the transferor does not have actual  knowledge that such affidavit is
false.  Moreover,  an  entity  will not  qualify  as a REMIC  unless  there  are
reasonable  arrangements  designed to ensure that (i) residual interests in such
entity are not held by disqualified organizations and (ii) information necessary
for  the  application  of the tax  described  herein  will  be  made  available.
Restrictions  on the transfer of REMIC Residual  Certificates  and certain other
provisions  that are intended to meet this  requirement  will be included in the
Pooling Agreement, and will be discussed more fully in any Prospectus Supplement
relating to the offering of any REMIC Residual Certificate.

     In addition,  if a  "pass-through  entity" (as defined  below)  includes in
income excess  inclusions  with respect to a REMIC Residual  Certificate,  and a
disqualified  organization  is the record  holder of an interest in such entity,
then a tax will be imposed on such entity equal to the product of (i) the amount
of excess inclusions on the REMIC Residual Certificate that are allocable to the
interest in the pass-through  entity held by such disqualified  organization and
(ii) the highest  marginal  federal income tax rate imposed on  corporations.  A
pass-through entity will not be subject to this tax for any period,  however, if
each record holder of an interest in such pass-through  entity furnishes to such
pass-through  entity (i) such holder's  social  security  number and a statement
under penalty of perjury that such social  security number is that of the record
holder or (ii) a statement  under  penalty of perjury that such record holder is
not a disqualified organization.

     For these  purposes,  a  "disqualified  organization"  means (i) the United
States, any State or political subdivision thereof, any foreign government,  any
international  organization,  or any agency or  instrumentality of the foregoing
(but would not include  instrumentalities  described in Section  168(h)(2)(D) of
the Code or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage  Corporation),  (ii) any organization
(other than a  cooperative  described in Section 521 of the Code) that is exempt
from federal income tax,  unless it is subject to the tax imposed by Section 511
of the Code or (iii) any organization  described in Section 1381(a)(2)(C) of the
Code. For these purposes, a "pass-through entity" means any regulated investment
company,  real estate  investment  trust,  trust,  partnership  or certain other
entities  described in Section  860E(e)(6)  of the Code.  In addition,  a person
holding an interest  in a  pass-through  entity as a nominee for another  person
will, with respect to such interest, be treated as a pass-through entity.

     Termination. A REMIC will terminate immediately after the Distribution Date
following  receipt by the REMIC of the final  payment in respect of the Mortgage
Loans or upon a sale of the REMIC's  assets  following the adoption by the REMIC
of a plan of complete  liquidation.  The last  distribution  on a REMIC  Regular
Certificate will be treated as a payment in retirement of a debt instrument.  In
the case of a REMIC Residual Certificate, if the last distribution on such REMIC
Residual  Certificate  is  less  than  the  REMIC  Residual  Certificateholder's
adjusted  basis  in  such  REMIC  Residual  Certificate,   such  REMIC  Residual
Certificateholder  should (but may not) be treated as  realizing a loss equal to
the amount of such  difference.  Such loss may be treated as a capital  loss and
may be subject to the "wash sale" rules of Section 1091 of the Code.

                                       77
<PAGE>

     Reporting  and Other  Administrative  Matters.  Solely for  purposes of the
administrative  provisions  of  the  Code,  the  REMIC  will  be  treated  as  a
partnership and REMIC Residual  Certificateholders  will be treated as partners.
Unless otherwise stated in the related Prospectus Supplement, either the Trustee
or the Master  Servicer,  generally will hold at least a nominal amount of REMIC
Residual  Certificates,  will file REMIC federal income tax returns on behalf of
the related  REMIC,  and will be  designated as and will act as the "tax matters
person" with respect to the REMIC in all respects.

     As the tax matters person, the Trustee or the Master Servicer,  as the case
may be, will,  subject to certain notice  requirements and various  restrictions
and limitations,  generally have the authority to act on behalf of the REMIC and
the REMIC Residual  Certificateholders in connection with the administrative and
judicial  review of items of income,  deduction,  gain or loss of the REMIC,  as
well as the  REMIC's  classification.  REMIC  Residual  Certificateholders  will
generally  be  required  to report  such  REMIC  items  consistently  with their
treatment  on the related  REMIC's tax return and may in some  circumstances  be
bound by a settlement  agreement between the Trustee or the Master Servicer,  as
the case may be, as tax matters  person,  and the IRS  concerning any such REMIC
item.  Adjustments  made to the REMIC tax  return may  require a REMIC  Residual
Certificateholder to make corresponding  adjustments on its return, and an audit
of the REMIC's  tax return,  or the  adjustments  resulting  from such an audit,
could  result in an audit of a REMIC  Residual  Certificateholder's  return.  No
REMIC will be registered  as a tax shelter  pursuant to Section 6111 of the Code
because it is not anticipated that any 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
to the related REMIC,  in a manner to be provided in Treasury  regulations,  the
name and address of such person and other information.

     Reporting of interest income,  including any original issue discount,  with
respect to REMIC Regular Certificates is required annually,  and may be required
more frequently under Treasury regulations.  These information reports generally
are required to be sent to individual holders of REMIC Regular Interests and the
IRS;  holders  of REMIC  Regular  Certificates  that are  corporations,  trusts,
securities dealers and certain other  non-individuals  will be provided interest
and original issue discount income  information and the information set forth in
the following  paragraph upon request in accordance with the requirements of the
applicable regulations. The information must be provided by the later of 30 days
after the end of the quarter for which the  information  was  requested,  or two
weeks  after the receipt of the  request.  The REMIC must also comply with rules
requiring a REMIC Regular  Certificate  issued with original  issue  discount to
disclose on its face the amount of original  issue  discount and the issue date,
and requiring such information to be reported to the IRS. Reporting with respect
to  the  REMIC  Residual  Certificates,  including  income,  excess  inclusions,
investment  expenses and relevant  information  regarding  qualification  of the
REMIC's  assets  will  be made  as  required  under  the  Treasury  regulations,
generally on a quarterly basis.

     As  applicable,  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 required by regulations with respect to computing the accrual of any
market discount.  Because exact computation of the accrual of market discount on
a constant  yield  method  would  require  information  relating to the holder's
purchase price that the REMIC may not have, such  regulations  only require that
information  pertaining  to the  appropriate  proportionate  method of  accruing
market  discount  be  provided.  See  "--Taxation  of  Owners  of REMIC  Regular
Certificates--Market Discount."

     The responsibility for complying with the foregoing reporting rules will be
borne by either the Trustee or the Master  Servicer,  unless otherwise stated in
the related Prospectus Supplement.

     Backup Withholding with Respect to REMIC Certificates. Payments of interest
and  principal,  as well  as  payments  of  proceeds  from  the  sale  of  REMIC
Certificates,  may be subject to the "backup withholding tax" under Section 3406
of the Code at a rate of 31% if  recipients  of such payments fail to furnish to
the payor certain information,  including their taxpayer identification numbers,
or otherwise fail to establish an exemption from such tax. Any amounts  deducted
and withheld  from a  distribution  to a recipient  would be allowed as a credit
against such recipient's federal income tax. Furthermore,  certain penalties may
be imposed by the IRS on a  recipient  of  payments  that is  required to supply
information but that does not do so in the proper manner.

     Foreign Investors in REMIC Certificates.  A REMIC Regular Certificateholder
that is not a "United  States  person" (as defined  below) and is not subject to
federal  income  tax as a result of any  direct or  indirect  connection  to the
United States in addition to its ownership of a REMIC Regular  Certificate  will
not, unless otherwise disclosed in 


                                       78
<PAGE>

the related Prospectus Supplement, be subject to United States federal income or
withholding  tax in respect of a  distribution  on a REMIC Regular  Certificate,
provided  that  the  holder  complies  to  the  extent  necessary  with  certain
identification  requirements  (including delivery of a statement,  signed by the
Certificateholder   under   penalties   of   perjury,   certifying   that   such
Certificateholder  is not a United  States  person  and  providing  the name and
address of such Certificateholder).  For these purposes,  "United States 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 whose income 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 within the United States, or a trust if a court within the U.S. is able
to exercise primary  supervision over the administration of the trust and one or
more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the
trust.  It is possible  that the IRS may assert the  foregoing  withholding  tax
exemption  should not apply  with  respect to  interest  distributed  on a REMIC
Regular Certificate that is held by (i) a REMIC Residual  Certificateholder that
owns  directly or  indirectly  a 10% or greater  interest in the REMIC  Residual
Certificates or (ii) to the extent of the amount of interest paid by the related
Mortgagor on a particular  Mortgage Loan, (A) a REMIC Regular  Certificateholder
that owns a 10% or greater  ownership  interest in such Mortgagor or (B) a REMIC
Regular  Certificateholder  that is a controlled  foreign  corporation as to the
United States of which such  Mortgagor is a "United States  shareholder"  within
the  meaning of Section  951(b) of the Code.  If the holder does not qualify for
exemption,  distributions  of interest,  including  distributions  in respect of
accrued original issue discount,  to such holder may be subject to a tax rate of
30%, subject to reduction under any applicable tax treaty.

     In addition,  the foregoing  rules will not apply to exempt a United States
shareholder  of a controlled  foreign  corporation  from taxation on such United
States  shareholder's  allocable portion of the interest income received by such
controlled foreign corporation.

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

     Transfers of REMIC Residual  Certificates  to investors that are not United
States persons will be prohibited under the related Pooling Agreement.

GRANTOR TRUST FUNDS

     Classification  of Grantor  Trust  Funds.  With  respect to each  series of
Grantor Trust Certificates, counsel to the Depositor will deliver its opinion to
the effect that,  assuming compliance with all provisions of the related Pooling
Agreement,  the related Grantor Trust Fund will be classified as a grantor trust
under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code and not as a partnership  or
an association taxable as a corporation.  Accordingly,  each holder of a Grantor
Trust  Certificate  generally will be treated as the owner of an interest in the
Mortgage Loans included in the Grantor Trust Fund.

     For  purposes of the  following  discussion,  a Grantor  Trust  Certificate
representing an undivided  equitable  ownership interest in the principal of the
Mortgage  Loans  constituting  the related  Grantor  Trust Fund,  together  with
interest thereon at a pass-through rate, will be referred to as a "Grantor Trust
Fractional  Interest  Certificate."  A Grantor  Trust  Certificate  representing
ownership of all or a portion of the  difference  between  interest  paid on the
Mortgage  Loans  constituting  the  related  Grantor  Trust  Fund (net of normal
administration  fees and any spread) and interest paid to the holders of Grantor
Trust Fractional Interest Certificates issued with respect to such Grantor Trust
Fund will be referred to as a "Grantor Trust Strip Certificate." A Grantor Trust
Strip  Certificate  may  also  evidence  a  nominal  ownership  interest  in the
principal of the Mortgage  Loans  constituting  the related  Grantor Trust Fund.

CHARACTERIZATION OF INVESTMENTS IN GRANTOR TRUST CERTIFICATES

     Grantor  Trust  Fractional  Interest  Certificates.  In the case of Grantor
Trust  Fractional  Interest  Certificates,  unless  otherwise  disclosed  in the
related Prospectus Supplement,  counsel to the Depositor will deliver an opinion
that, in general,  Grantor Trust Fractional Interest Certificates will represent
interests in (i) assets  described in Section  7701(a)(19)(C)  of the Code; (ii)
"obligation[s]   (including  any  participation  or  certificate  of  beneficial
ownership therein) which . . . [are] principally  secured by an interest in real
property"  within the meaning of Section  860G(a)(3)(A)  of the Code;  and (iii)
"real estate assets" within the meaning of Section  856(c)(5)(A) of the Code. In

                                       79
<PAGE>

addition,  counsel to the  Depositor  will deliver an opinion  that  interest on
Grantor  Trust  Fractional  Interest  Certificates  will to the same  extent  be
considered  "interest on obligations secured by mortgages on real property or on
interests in real property"  within the meaning of Section  856(c)(3)(B)  of the
Code.

     Grantor Trust Strip Certificates.  Even if Grantor Trust Strip Certificates
evidence an interest in a Grantor Trust Fund  consisting of Mortgage  Loans that
are assets  described  in Section  7701(a)(19)(C)  of the Code and "real  estate
assets" within the meaning of Section 856(c)(5)(A) of the Code, and the interest
on which is "interest  on  obligations  secured by  mortgages on real  property"
within the meaning of Section  856(c)(3)(B)  of the Code, it is unclear  whether
the  Grantor  Trust Strip  Certificates,  and the income  therefrom,  will be so
characterized.  However,  the policies  underlying  such  sections  (namely,  to
encourage or require  investments in mortgage loans by thrift  institutions  and
real  estate  investment  trusts)  may  suggest  that such  characterization  is
appropriate.  Counsel to the  Depositor  will not  deliver  any opinion on these
questions.   Prospective   purchasers  to  which  such  characterization  of  an
investment in Grantor Trust Strip  Certificates is material should consult their
tax advisors  regarding  whether the Grantor Trust Strip  Certificates,  and the
income therefrom, will be so characterized.

     The Grantor Trust Strip Certificates will be "obligation[s]  (including any
participation or certificate of beneficial  ownership therein) which . . . [are]
principally  secured by an  interest  in real  property"  within the  meaning of
Section  860G(a)(3)(A)  of  the  Code. 

TAXATION OF OWNERS OF GRANTOR TRUST FRACTIONAL INTEREST CERTIFICATES

     General.  Holders  of a  particular  series  of  Grantor  Trust  Fractional
Interest  Certificates  generally  will be required  to report on their  federal
income tax returns  their shares of the entire  income from the  Mortgage  Loans
(including amounts used to pay reasonable servicing fees and other expenses) and
will be entitled to deduct their shares of any such  reasonable  servicing  fees
and other  expenses.  Because of stripped  interests,  market or original  issue
discount,  or premium,  the amount  includible in income on account of a Grantor
Trust Fractional Interest  Certificate may differ  significantly from the amount
distributable thereon representing interest on the Mortgage Loans. Under Section
67 of the  Code,  an  individual,  estate  or  trust  holding  a  Grantor  Trust
Fractional  Interest   Certificate  directly  or  through  certain  pass-through
entities  will be allowed a deduction  for such  reasonable  servicing  fees and
expenses only to the extent that the  aggregate of such  holder's  miscellaneous
itemized  deductions exceeds two percent of such holder's adjusted gross income.
In  addition,  Section  68 of the Code  provides  that the  amount  of  itemized
deductions  otherwise  allowable for an individual  whose  adjusted gross income
exceeds a specified amount will be reduced by the lesser of (i) 3% of the excess
of the  individual's  adjusted  gross income over such amount or (ii) 80% of the
amount of itemized  deductions  otherwise  allowable for the taxable  year.  The
amount of  additional  taxable  income  reportable  by holders of Grantor  Trust
Fractional  Interest  Certificates  who are subject to the limitations of either
Section   67  or  Section   68  of  the  Code  may  be   substantial.   Further,
Certificateholders  (other than corporations) subject to the alternative minimum
tax may  not  deduct  miscellaneous  itemized  deductions  in  determining  such
holder's alternative minimum taxable income.  Although it is not entirely clear,
it appears  that in  transactions  in which  multiple  classes of Grantor  Trust
Certificates  (including Grantor Trust Strip Certificates) are issued, such fees
and expenses should be allocated among the classes of Grantor Trust Certificates
using a method that  recognizes  that each such class  benefits from the related
services. In the absence of statutory or administrative  clarification as to the
method to be used,  it  currently  is  intended to base  information  returns or
reports  to the IRS and  Certificateholders  on a  method  that  allocates  such
expenses among classes of Grantor Trust Certificates with respect to each period
based on the distributions made to each such class during that period.

     The federal  income tax  treatment  of Grantor  Trust  Fractional  Interest
Certificates  of any  series  will  depend on  whether  they are  subject to the
"stripped  bond" rules of Section  1286 of the Code.  Grantor  Trust  Fractional
Interest  Certificates  may be subject to those  rules if (i) a class of Grantor
Trust Strip Certificates is issued as part of the same series of Certificates or
(ii) the Depositor or any of its affiliates  retains (for its own account or for
purposes  of resale) a right to  receive a  specified  portion  of the  interest
payable on a Mortgage  Asset.  Further,  the IRS has ruled that an  unreasonably
high  servicing  fee  retained  by a seller or  servicer  will be  treated  as a
retained ownership interest in mortgages that constitutes a stripped coupon. For
purposes of determining what constitutes  reasonable  servicing fees for various
types of mortgages the IRS has established certain "safe harbors." The servicing
fees paid with respect to the Mortgage Loans for certain series of Grantor Trust
Certificates  may be higher than the "safe  harbors" and,  accordingly,  may not
constitute reasonable servicing compensation.  The related Prospectus Supplement
will include information  regarding servicing fees paid to a Master Servicer,  a
Special Servicer,  any Sub-Servicer or their respective  affiliates necessary to
determine whether the preceding "safe harbor" rules apply.

                                       80

     If Stripped  Bond Rules  Apply.  If the  stripped  bond rules  apply,  each
Grantor Trust  Fractional  Interest  Certificate  will be treated as having been
issued with "original issue  discount"  within the meaning of Section 1273(a) of
the Code,  subject,  however, to the discussion below regarding the treatment of
certain stripped bonds as market discount bonds and the discussion  regarding de
minimis market discount.  See "--Taxation of Grantor Trust  Fractional  Interest
Certificates--Market  Discount."  Under the stripped bond rules, the holder of a
Grantor Trust Fractional Interest  Certificate (whether a cash or accrual method
taxpayer)  will be required  to report  interest  income from its Grantor  Trust
Fractional Interest  Certificate for each month in an amount equal to the income
that accrues on such Certificate in that month calculated under a constant yield
method,  in  accordance  with the rules of the Code  relating to original  issue
discount.

     The  original  issue  discount  on  a  Grantor  Trust  Fractional  Interest
Certificate  will be the excess of such  Certificate's  stated  redemption price
over its issue price.  The issue price of a Grantor  Trust  Fractional  Interest
Certificate  as to any  purchaser  will  be  equal  to the  price  paid  by such
purchaser  for the Grantor Trust  Fractional  Interest  Certificate.  The stated
redemption price of a Grantor Trust Fractional Interest  Certificate will be the
sum of all payments to be made on such Certificate, other than "qualified stated
interest," if any, as well as such Certificate's  share of reasonable  servicing
fees and other expenses.  See "--Taxation of Grantor Trust  Fractional  Interest
Certificates--If  Stripped  Bond  Rules  Do  Not  Apply"  for  a  definition  of
"qualified stated interest." In general,  the amount of such income that accrues
in any month  would equal the product of such  holder's  adjusted  basis in such
Grantor Trust  Fractional  Interest  Certificate  at the beginning of such month
(see  "--Sales of Grantor  Trust  Certificates")  and the yield of such  Grantor
Trust  Fractional  Interest  Certificate  to such  holder.  Such yield  would be
computed at the rate  (compounded  based on the regular interval between payment
dates) that,  if used to discount the holder's  share of future  payments on the
Mortgage Loans,  would cause the present value of those future payments to equal
the price at which the holder  purchased such  Certificate.  In computing  yield
under the stripped bond rules, a Certificateholder's share of future payments on
the Mortgage  Loans will not include any payments  made in respect of any spread
or any other ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans retained by the Depositor,
a Master  Servicer,  a Special  Servicer,  any  Sub-Servicer or their respective
affiliates,  but will include such  Certificateholder's  share of any reasonable
servicing fees and other expenses.

     Section  1272(a)(6)  of the  Code  requires  (i)  the  use of a  reasonable
prepayment  assumption in accruing  original issue discount and (ii) adjustments
in the accrual of original issue discount when prepayments do not conform to the
prepayment  assumption,  with respect to certain categories of debt instruments,
and regulations  could be adopted applying those provisions to the Grantor Trust
Fractional Interest  Certificates.  It is unclear whether those provisions would
be applicable to the Grantor Trust Fractional  Interest  Certificates or whether
use of a reasonable  prepayment  assumption may be required or permitted without
reliance on these rules.  It is also  uncertain,  if a prepayment  assumption is
used,  whether  the  assumed  prepayment  rate  would  be  determined  based  on
conditions  at the  time of the  first  sale  of the  Grantor  Trust  Fractional
Interest  Certificate or, with respect to any holder, at the time of purchase of
the   Grantor   Trust   Fractional   Interest   Certificate   by  that   holder.
Certificateholders  are  advised to consult  their own tax  advisors  concerning
reporting  original  issue  discount in general  and, in  particular,  whether a
prepayment  assumption should be used in reporting  original issue discount with
respect to Grantor Trust Fractional Interest Certificates.

     In the case of a Grantor Trust Fractional Interest  Certificate acquired at
a price equal to the principal  amount of the Mortgage  Loans  allocable to such
Certificate,  the use of a prepayment  assumption  generally  would not have any
significant effect on the yield used in calculating accruals of interest income.
In the  case,  however,  of a  Grantor  Trust  Fractional  Interest  Certificate
acquired at a discount or premium (that is, at a price less than or greater than
such  principal  amount,  respectively),  the  use  of a  reasonable  prepayment
assumption  would  increase  or  decrease  such yield,  and thus  accelerate  or
decelerate, respectively, the reporting of income.

     If a prepayment  assumption is not used,  then when a Mortgage Loan prepays
in full, the holder of a Grantor Trust Fractional Interest  Certificate acquired
at a discount or a premium  generally  will  recognize  ordinary  income or loss
equal to the difference  between the portion of the prepaid  principal amount of
the Mortgage Loan that is allocable to such  Certificate  and the portion of the
adjusted basis of such Certificate that is allocable to such Certificateholder's
interest in the Mortgage  Loan.  If a prepayment  assumption is used, it appears
that no separate item of income or loss should be recognized  upon a prepayment.
Instead,  a  prepayment  should be  treated  as a partial  payment of the stated
redemption  price of the  Grantor  Trust  Fractional  Interest  Certificate  and
accounted for under a method  similar to that  described  for taking  account of
original issue discount on REMIC Regular Certificates.  See  "--REMICs--Taxation

                                       81
<PAGE>

of Owners of REMIC Regular Certificates--Original Issue Discount." It is unclear
whether any other adjustments would be required to reflect  differences  between
an assumed prepayment rate and the actual rate of prepayments.

     In  the  absence  of  statutory  or  administrative  clarification,  it  is
currently  intended  to  base  information  reports  or  returns  to the IRS and
Certificateholders  in  transactions  subject  to the  stripped  bond rules on a
prepayment  assumption (the "Prepayment  Assumption")  that will be disclosed in
the related  Prospectus  Supplement  and on a constant  yield  computed  using a
representative  initial offering price for each class of Certificates.  However,
neither the Depositor nor any other person will make any representation that the
Mortgage  Loans  will in fact  prepay at a rate  conforming  to such  Prepayment
Assumption or any other rate and Certificateholders should bear in mind that the
use of a  representative  initial offering price will mean that such information
returns or reports,  even if otherwise  accepted as accurate by the IRS, will in
any event be accurate only as to the initial  Certificateholders  of each series
who bought at that price.

     Under Treasury regulation Section 1.1286-1T,  certain stripped bonds are to
be treated as market  discount bonds and,  accordingly,  any purchaser of such a
bond is to account for any discount on the bond as market  discount  rather than
original issue discount.  This treatment only applies,  however,  if immediately
after the most recent  disposition of the bond by a person stripping one or more
coupons  from the bond and  disposing  of the  bond or  coupon  (i)  there is no
original issue discount (or only a de minimis amount of original issue discount)
or (ii) the annual  stated rate of interest  payable on the original  bond is no
more than one percentage point lower than the gross interest rate payable on the
original  mortgage  loan (before  subtracting  any servicing fee or any stripped
coupon). If interest payable on a Grantor Trust Fractional Interest  Certificate
is more than one percentage  point lower than the gross interest rate payable on
the Mortgage Loans, the related  Prospectus  Supplement will disclose that fact.
If the original issue discount or market discount on a Grantor Trust  Fractional
Interest Certificate determined under the stripped bond rules is less than 0.25%
of the stated  redemption  price  multiplied by the weighted average maturity of
the Mortgage Loans, then such original issue discount or market discount will be
considered to be de minimis.  Original issue discount or market discount of only
a de minimis  amount will be included in income in the same manner as de minimis
original issue and market discount described in "--Taxation of Owners of Grantor
Trust Fractional Interest Certificates--If Stripped Bond Rules Do Not Apply" and
"--Market Discount."

     If Stripped  Bond Rules Do Not Apply.  Subject to the  discussion  below on
original  issue  discount,  if the stripped bond rules do not apply to a Grantor
Trust Fractional Interest Certificate, the Certificateholder will be required to
report its share of the interest income on the Mortgage Loans in accordance with
such  Certificateholder's  normal  method  of  accounting.  The  original  issue
discount rules will apply to a Grantor Trust Fractional Interest  Certificate to
the extent it evidences an interest in Mortgage Loans issued with original issue
discount.

     The original issue  discount,  if any, on the Mortgage Loans will equal the
difference  between the stated redemption price of such Mortgage Loans and their
issue price. Under the OID Regulations,  the stated redemption price is equal to
the total of all payments to be made on such Mortgage Loan other than "qualified
stated  interest."   "Qualified  stated  interest"  includes  interest  that  is
unconditionally  payable  at  least  annually  at  a  single  fixed  rate,  at a
"qualified  floating rate," or at an "objective rate," a combination of a single
fixed rate and one or more "qualified  floating rates" or one "qualified inverse
floating  rate," or a combination  of "qualified  floating  rates" that does not
operate  in a manner  that  accelerates  or  defers  interest  payments  on such
Mortgage Loan. In general, the issue price of a Mortgage Loan will be the amount
received by the borrower  from the lender under the terms of the Mortgage  Loan,
less any "points" paid by the  borrower,  and the stated  redemption  price of a
Mortgage Loan will equal its principal amount, unless the Mortgage Loan provides
for an initial below-market rate of interest or the acceleration or the deferral
of interest payments.

     In the case of Mortgage  Loans  bearing  adjustable  or  variable  interest
rates, the related Prospectus  Supplement will describe the manner in which such
rules  will be  applied  with  respect  to those  Mortgage  Loans  in  preparing
information returns to the Certificateholders and the IRS.

     Notwithstanding the general definition of original issue discount, original
issue  discount  will be  considered  to be de  minimis if such  original  issue
discount is less than 0.25% of the stated  redemption  price  multiplied  by the
weighted average  maturity of the Mortgage Loan. For this purpose,  the weighted
average maturity of the Mortgage Loan will be computed as the sum of the amounts
determined,  as to each payment included in the stated  redemption price of such
Mortgage  Loan, by multiplying  (i) the number of complete years  (rounding down
for partial years) from the issue date until such payment is expected to be made
by (ii) a fraction,  the numerator of which is the amount of the payment and 


                                       82
<PAGE>

the  denominator of which is the stated  redemption  price of the Mortgage Loan.
Under the OID  Regulations,  original issue discount of only a de minimis amount
(other  than de minimis  original  issue  discount  attributable  to a so-called
"teaser"  rate or initial  interest  holiday) will be included in income as each
payment of stated  principal  price is made,  based on the  product of the total
amount of such de minimis original issue discount and a fraction,  the numerator
of which is the amount of each such payment and the  denominator of which is the
outstanding  stated  principal  amount of the Mortgage Loan. The OID Regulations
also permit a  Certificateholder  to elect to accrue de minimis  original  issue
discount into income currently based on a constant yield method. See "--Taxation
of Owners of Grantor Trust Fractional  Interest  Certificates--Market  Discount"
below.

     If  original  issue  discount  is in excess  of a de  minimis  amount,  all
original  issue  discount with respect to a Mortgage Loan will be required to be
accrued and reported in income each month,  based on a constant  yield.  The OID
Regulations  suggest that no prepayment  assumption is  appropriate in computing
the yield on prepayable  obligations issued with original issue discount. In the
absence of  statutory  or  administrative  clarification,  it  currently  is not
intended   to   base   information   reports   or   returns   to  the   IRS  and
Certificateholders  on the use of a prepayment  assumption in  transactions  not
subject to the stripped bond rules. However,  Section 1272(a)(6) of the Code may
require that a prepayment  assumption be made in computing yield with respect to
all mortgage-backed securities.  Certificateholders are advised to consult their
own tax advisors  concerning  whether a prepayment  assumption should be used in
reporting  original  issue  discount  with respect to Grantor  Trust  Fractional
Interest Certificates. Certificateholders should refer to the related Prospectus
Supplement  with respect to each series to determine  whether and in what manner
the original issue discount rules will apply to Mortgage Loans in such series.

     A  purchaser  of a  Grantor  Trust  Fractional  Interest  Certificate  that
purchases such Grantor Trust Fractional Interest Certificate at a cost less than
such  Certificate's   allocable  portion  of  the  aggregate   remaining  stated
redemption  price of the Mortgage Loans held in the related Trust Fund will also
be required to include in gross income such Certificate's  daily portions of any
original issue discount with respect to such Mortgage Loans.  However, each such
daily  portion  will be reduced,  if the cost of such Grantor  Trust  Fractional
Interest  Certificate  to such  purchaser  is in  excess  of such  Certificate's
allocable portion of the aggregate "adjusted issue prices" of the Mortgage Loans
held in the related  Trust Fund,  approximately  in proportion to the ratio such
excess bears to such  Certificate's  allocable portion of the aggregate original
issue  discount  remaining to be accrued on such  Mortgage  Loans.  The adjusted
issue  price of a  Mortgage  Loan on any  given  day  equals  the sum of (i) the
adjusted  issue price (or, in the case of the first  accrual  period,  the issue
price)  of such  Mortgage  Loan at the  beginning  of the  accrual  period  that
includes such day and (ii) the daily portions of original issue discount for all
days during such accrual period prior to such day. The adjusted issue price of a
Mortgage Loan at the beginning of any accrual  period will equal the issue price
of such  Mortgage  Loan,  increased by the  aggregate  amount of original  issue
discount  with  respect to such  Mortgage  Loan that  accrued  in prior  accrual
periods, and reduced by the amount of any payments made on such Mortgage Loan in
prior accrual periods of amounts included in its stated redemption price.

     The Trustee or Master Servicer,  as applicable,  will provide to any holder
of a Grantor Trust  Fractional  Interest  Certificate  such  information as such
holder may  reasonably  request from time to time with respect to original issue
discount  accruing  on  Grantor  Trust  Fractional  Interest  Certificates.  See
"--Grantor Trust Reporting" below.

     Market  Discount.  If the  stripped  bond rules do not apply to the Grantor
Trust Fractional Interest Certificate, a Certificateholder may be subject to the
market discount rules of Sections 1276 through 1278 of the Code to the extent an
interest in a Mortgage Loan is  considered  to have been  purchased at a "market
discount," that is, in the case of a Mortgage Loan issued without original issue
discount,  at a purchase price less than its remaining  stated  redemption price
(as defined above), or in the case of a Mortgage Loan issued with original issue
discount,  at a purchase  price less than its  adjusted  issue price (as defined
above).  If market  discount is in excess of a de minimis  amount (as  described
below), the holder generally will be required to include in income in each month
the amount of such discount that has accrued  (under the rules  described in the
next  paragraph)  through such month that has not  previously  been  included in
income,  but  limited,  in the  case of the  portion  of such  discount  that is
allocable to any Mortgage  Loan,  to the payment of stated  redemption  price on
such  Mortgage  Loan  that is  received  by (or,  in the case of  accrual  basis
Certificateholders,  due to) the Trust Fund in that month.  A  Certificateholder
may elect to include market discount in income  currently as it accrues (under a
constant  yield  method  based on the yield of the  Certificate  to such holder)
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  during or after the first taxable year to which such election
applies. In addition,  the OID Regulations would permit a  Certificateholder  to
elect to accrue all interest,  discount 


                                       83
<PAGE>

(including de minimis market or original  issue  discount) and premium in income
as interest,  based on a constant  yield  method.  If such an election were made
with  respect to a Mortgage  Loan with market  discount,  the  Certificateholder
would be deemed to have made an election to include currently market discount in
income with respect to all other debt  instruments  having market  discount that
such  Certificateholder  acquires  during the taxable  year of the  election and
thereafter,   and  possibly  previously  acquired  instruments.   Similarly,   a
Certificateholder  that made  this  election  for a  Certificate  acquired  at a
premium  would 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  "--REMICs--Taxation of Owners of REMIC
Regular  Certificates--Premium."  Each of these  elections  to accrue  interest,
discount and premium with respect to a Certificate on a constant yield method or
as interest is irrevocable.

     Section 1276(b)(3) of the Code authorized the Treasury  Department to issue
regulations  providing  for the  method for  accruing  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  Department,  certain
rules  described in the  Committee  Report  apply.  Under those  rules,  in each
accrual  period  market  discount on the Mortgage  Loans should  accrue,  at the
Certificateholder's option: (i) on the basis of a constant yield method, (ii) in
the case of a Mortgage Loan issued without original issue discount, in an amount
that bears the same ratio to the total  remaining  market discount as the stated
interest paid in the accrual period bears to the total stated interest remaining
to be paid on the Mortgage  Loan as of the beginning of the accrual  period,  or
(iii) in the case of a Mortgage Loan issued with original issue discount,  in an
amount that bears the same ratio to the total  remaining  market discount as the
original  issue  discount  accrued  in the  accrual  period  bears to the  total
original issue discount  remaining at the beginning of the accrual  period.  The
prepayment assumption, if any, used in calculating the accrual of original issue
discount is to be used in calculating the accrual of market discount. The effect
of using a prepayment  assumption  could be to accelerate  the reporting of such
discount income.  Because the regulations referred to in this paragraph have not
been issued,  it is not possible to predict what effect such  regulations  might
have on the tax  treatment  of a Mortgage  Loan  purchased  at a discount in the
secondary market.

     Because the Mortgage  Loans will  provide for  periodic  payments of stated
redemption  price,  such  discount may be required to be included in income at a
rate that is not significantly slower than the rate at which such discount would
be included in income if it were original issue discount.

     Market discount with respect to Mortgage Loans generally will be considered
to be de minimis if it is less than 0.25% of the stated  redemption price of the
Mortgage Loans multiplied by the number of complete years to maturity  remaining
after the date of its purchase.  In  interpreting a similar rule with respect to
original  issue  discount  on  obligations  payable  in  installments,  the  OID
Regulations  refer to the weighted  average  maturity of obligations,  and it is
likely  that the same rule will be  applied  with  respect  to market  discount,
presumably  taking into  account the  prepayment  assumption  used,  if any. The
effect of using a prepayment  assumption could be to accelerate the reporting of
such  discount  income.  If market  discount is treated as de minimis  under the
foregoing  rule,  it appears that actual  discount  would be treated in a manner
similar to original issue discount of a de minimis  amount.  See  "--Taxation of
Owners of Grantor Trust Fractional Interest Certificates--If Stripped Bond Rules
Do Not Apply."

     Further,  under the rules  described  in  "--REMICs--Taxation  of Owners of
REMIC Regular Certificates--Market  Discount," any discount that is not original
issue  discount  and exceeds a de minimis  amount may  require  the  deferral of
interest  expense  deductions  attributable  to accrued market  discount not yet
includible in income, unless an election has been made to report market discount
currently as it accrues.  This rule applies  without  regard to the  origination
dates of the Mortgage Loans.

     Premium.  If a  Certificateholder  is treated as acquiring  the  underlying
Mortgage  Loans at a premium,  that is, at a price in excess of their  remaining
stated redemption price, such  Certificateholder  may elect under Section 171 of
the Code to amortize  using a constant  yield method the portion of such premium
allocable to Mortgage Loans  originated  after  September 27, 1985.  Amortizable
premium  is  treated  as an  offset  to  interest  income  on the  related  debt
instrument,  rather  than as a separate  interest  deduction.  However,  premium
allocable to Mortgage Loans originated  before September 28, 1985 or to Mortgage
Loans for which an amortization  election is not made, should be allocated among
the payments of stated redemption price on the Mortgage Loan and be allowed as a
deduction  as such  payments  are made (or,  for a  Certificateholder  using the
accrual method of accounting,  when such payments of stated redemption price are
due).

     It is unclear whether a prepayment  assumption  should be used in computing
amortization  of premium  allowable under Section 171 of the Code. If premium is
not subject to  amortization  using a prepayment  assumption and a 


                                       84
<PAGE>

Mortgage Loan prepays in full, the holder of a Grantor Trust Fractional Interest
Certificate  acquired  at a  premium  should  recognize  a  loss,  equal  to the
difference  between the portion of the prepaid  principal amount of the Mortgage
Loan that is allocable to the  Certificate and the portion of the adjusted basis
of the  Certificate  that is  allocable to the  Mortgage  Loan.  If a prepayment
assumption is used to amortize  such premium,  it appears that such a loss would
be unavailable. Instead, if a prepayment assumption is used, a prepayment should
be treated as a partial  payment of the stated  redemption  price of the Grantor
Trust Fractional  Interest  Certificate and accounted for under a method similar
to that described for taking account of original issue discount on REMIC Regular
Certificates.    See    "--REMICs--Taxation   of   Owners   of   REMIC   Regular
Certificates--Original   Issue  Discount."  It  is  unclear  whether  any  other
adjustments  would be required  to reflect  differences  between the  prepayment
assumption used, if any, and the actual rate of prepayments.

     Taxation  of Owners of Grantor  Trust  Strip  Certificates.  The  "stripped
coupon"  rules of Section 1286 of the Code will apply to the Grantor Trust Strip
Certificates.  Except as  described  above in  "--Taxation  of Owners of Grantor
Trust  Fractional  Interest  Certificates--If  Stripped  Bond  Rules  Apply," no
regulations or published rulings under Section 1286 of the Code have been issued
and some  uncertainty  exists as to how it will be applied to securities such as
the Grantor  Trust Strip  Certificates.  Accordingly,  holders of Grantor  Trust
Strip Certificates  should consult their own tax advisors  concerning the method
to be used in reporting income or loss with respect to such Certificates.

     The OID  Regulations  do not apply to  "stripped  coupons,"  although  they
provide general  guidance as to how the original issue discount  sections of the
Code will be  applied.  In  addition,  the  discussion  below is  subject to the
discussion under "--Possible  Application of Proposed  Contingent Payment Rules"
below and assumes that the holder of a Grantor Trust Strip  Certificate will not
own any Grantor Trust Fractional Interest Certificates.

     Under the stripped  coupon rules,  it appears that original  issue discount
will be  required  to be  accrued  in each  month  on the  Grantor  Trust  Strip
Certificates based on a constant yield method. In effect, each holder of Grantor
Trust  Strip  Certificates  would  include as  interest  income in each month an
amount  equal to the product of such  holder's  adjusted  basis in such  Grantor
Trust Strip  Certificate  at the  beginning  of such month and the yield of such
Grantor Trust Strip  Certificate to such holder.  Such yield would be calculated
based on the price paid for that Grantor Trust Strip  Certificate  by its holder
and the payments remaining to be made thereon at the time of the purchase,  plus
an allocable  portion of the servicing fees and expenses to be paid with respect
to the Mortgage  Loans.  See  "--Taxation of Owners of Grantor Trust  Fractional
Interest Certificates--If Stripped Bond Rules Apply" above.

     As noted above,  Section  1272(a)(6) of the Code requires that a prepayment
assumption  be used in computing  the accrual of original  issue  discount  with
respect to certain categories of debt instruments,  and that adjustments be made
in the  amount  and rate of accrual of such  discount  when  prepayments  do not
conform to such prepayment  assumption.  Regulations  could be adopted  applying
those provisions to the Grantor Trust Strip Certificates.  It is unclear whether
those provisions would be applicable to the Grantor Trust Strip  Certificates or
whether use of a  prepayment  assumption  may be required  or  permitted  in the
absence of such regulations. It is also uncertain, if a prepayment assumption is
used,  whether  the  assumed  prepayment  rate  would  be  determined  based  on
conditions at the time of the first sale of the Grantor Trust Strip  Certificate
or,  with  respect to any  subsequent  holder,  at the time of  purchase  of the
Grantor Trust Strip Certificate by that holder.

     The  accrual of income on the  Grantor  Trust  Strip  Certificates  will be
significantly slower if a prepayment  assumption is permitted to be made than if
yield is  computed  assuming no  prepayments.  In the  absence of  statutory  or
administrative  clarification,  it  currently  is intended  to base  information
returns  or  reports  to  the  IRS  and  Certificateholders  on  the  Prepayment
Assumption  disclosed  in the related  Prospectus  Supplement  and on a constant
yield computed using a  representative  initial offering price for each class of
Certificates.  However, neither the Depositor nor any other person will make any
representation  that the Mortgage Loans will in fact prepay at a rate conforming
to the Prepayment Assumption or at any other rate and Certificateholders  should
bear in mind that the use of a  representative  initial offering price will mean
that such information returns or reports, even if otherwise accepted as accurate
by  the  IRS,   will  in  any  event  be   accurate   only  as  to  the  initial
Certificateholders  of  each  series  who  bought  at  that  price.  Prospective
purchasers of the Grantor Trust Strip Certificates  should consult their own tax
advisors regarding the use of the Prepayment Assumption.

     It is  unclear  under  what  circumstances,  if any,  the  prepayment  of a
Mortgage  Loan will give rise to a loss to the holder of a Grantor  Trust  Strip
Certificate.  If a  Grantor  Trust  Strip  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 


                                       85
<PAGE>

with respect to such Grantor  Trust Strip  Certificate,  it appears that no loss
may be available as a result of any  particular  prepayment  unless  prepayments
occur at a rate faster than the  Prepayment  Assumption.  However,  if a Grantor
Trust Strip Certificate is treated as an interest in discrete Mortgage Loans, or
if the Prepayment  Assumption is not used, then when a Mortgage Loan is prepaid,
the holder of a Grantor  Trust Strip  Certificate  should be able to recognize a
loss equal to the portion of the adjusted issue price of the Grantor Trust Strip
Certificate that is allocable to such Mortgage Loan.

     Possible  Application  of Proposed  Contingent  Payment  Rules.  The coupon
stripping  rules'  general  treatment  of stripped  coupons is to regard them as
newly issued debt instruments in the hands of each purchaser. To the extent that
payments on the Grantor  Trust Strip  Certificates  would cease if the  Mortgage
Loans were  prepaid in full,  the  Grantor  Trust  Strip  Certificates  could be
considered to be debt instruments  providing for contingent payments.  Under the
OID  Regulations,  debt  instruments  providing for contingent  payments are not
subject  to the  same  rules as debt  instruments  providing  for  noncontingent
payments,  but no final  regulations  have  been  promulgated  with  respect  to
contingent  payment debt instruments.  Proposed  regulations were promulgated in
1994 regarding contingent payment debt instruments, but have not been made final
and are likely to be  substantially  revised before being made final.  Moreover,
like the OID Regulations,  such proposed regulations do not specifically address
securities,  such as the Grantor Trust Strip  Certificates,  that are subject to
the stripped bond rules of Section 1286 of the Code.

     Certificateholders   should  consult  their  tax  advisors  concerning  the
possible  application of the contingent payment rules to the Grantor Trust Strip
Certificates.

     Sales  of  Grantor  Trust  Certificates.  Any  gain or  loss,  equal to the
difference  between  the amount  realized  on the sale or  exchange of a Grantor
Trust Certificate and its adjusted basis, recognized on such sale or exchange of
a Grantor  Trust  Certificate  by an  investor  who  holds  such  Grantor  Trust
Certificate  as a capital  asset,  will be capital  gain or loss,  except to the
extent of accrued and  unrecognized  market  discount,  which will be treated as
ordinary  income,  and (in the case of banks and other  financial  institutions)
except as provided  under Section  582(c) of the Code.  The adjusted  basis of a
Grantor Trust Certificate generally will equal its cost, increased by any income
reported by the seller  (including  original issue discount and market  discount
income) and reduced (but not below zero) by any previously  reported losses, any
amortized  premium and by any  distributions  with respect to such Grantor Trust
Certificate.  The Code as of the date of this Prospectus provides a top marginal
tax rate of 39.6% for  individuals  and a maximum  marginal  rate for  long-term
capital  gains of  individuals  of 20%.  No such rate  differential  exists  for
corporations.  In addition,  the distinction  between a capital gain or loss and
ordinary income or loss remains relevant for other purposes.

     Gain or loss from the sale of a Grantor Trust  Certificate may be partially
or wholly ordinary and not capital in certain  circumstances.  Gain attributable
to accrued and unrecognized  market discount will be treated as ordinary income,
as will  gain or loss  recognized  by banks  and  other  financial  institutions
subject to Section 582(c) of the Code.  Furthermore,  a portion of any gain that
might  otherwise be capital gain may be treated as ordinary income to the extent
that the Grantor Trust Certificate is held as part of a "conversion transaction"
within  the  meaning  of  Section  1258 of the Code.  A  conversion  transaction
generally is one in which the  taxpayer  has taken two or more  positions in the
same or similar  property that reduce or eliminate market risk, if substantially
all of the taxpayer's return is attributable to the time value of the taxpayer's
net investment in such transaction.  The amount of gain realized in a conversion
transaction that is recharacterized as ordinary income generally will not exceed
the amount of interest that would have accrued on the  taxpayer's net investment
at 120% of the appropriate "applicable Federal rate" (which rate is computed and
published  monthly  by the  IRS)  at the  time  the  taxpayer  enters  into  the
conversion transaction,  subject to appropriate reduction for prior inclusion of
interest  and other  ordinary  income  items from the  transaction.  Finally,  a
taxpayer  may elect to have net  capital  gain taxed at  ordinary  income  rates
rather than  capital  gains rates in order to include  such net capital  gain in
total net investment income for that taxable year, for purposes of the rule that
limits the deduction of interest on  indebtedness  incurred to purchase or carry
property held for investment to a taxpayer's net investment income.

     Grantor  Trust  Reporting.  As may be provided  in the  related  Prospectus
Supplement, the Trustee or Master Servicer, as applicable,  will furnish to each
holder of a Grantor Trust Certificate with each distribution a statement setting
forth the amount of such  distribution  allocable to principal on the underlying
Mortgage  Loans and to interest  thereon at the related  Pass-Through  Rate.  In
addition,  within a reasonable  time after the end of each  calendar  year,  the
Trustee   or   Master   Servicer,   as   applicable,   will   furnish   to  each
Certificateholder  during such year such  customary  factual  information as the
Depositor or the reporting  party deems necessary or desirable to enable holders
of Grantor  Trust  Certificates  to prepare  their tax returns and will  furnish
comparable  information to the IRS as and when required by law to do so. Because
the rules for  accruing  discount  and  amortizing  premium  with respect to the
Grantor 


                                       86
<PAGE>

Trust Certificates are uncertain in various respects,  there is no assurance the
IRS will  agree with the  Trustee's  or Master  Servicer's,  as the case may be,
information  reports  of such  items  of  income  and  expense.  Moreover,  such
information reports,  even if otherwise accepted as accurate by the IRS, will in
any event be  accurate  only as to the  initial  Certificateholders  that bought
their  Certificates  at  the  representative  initial  offering  price  used  in
preparing such reports.

     Backup Withholding.  In general,  the rules described in  "--REMICs--Backup
Withholding with Respect to REMIC Certificates" will also apply to Grantor Trust
Certificates.

     Foreign Investors. In general, the discussion with respect to REMIC Regular
Certificates in  "--REMICs--Foreign  Investors in REMIC Certificates" applies to
Grantor  Trust  Certificates  except that  Grantor  Trust  Certificates  will be
eligible  for  exemption  from United  States  withholding  tax,  subject to the
conditions described in such discussion, only to the extent the related Mortgage
Loans were originated after July 18, 1984.

     To the extent that interest on a Grantor Trust  Certificate would be exempt
under Sections  871(h)(1) and 881(c) of the Code from United States  withholding
tax,  and  the  Grantor  Trust  Certificate  is not  held in  connection  with a
Certificateholder's  trade or business in the United States,  such Grantor Trust
Certificate will not be subject to United States estate taxes in the estate of a
non-resident alien individual.

                        STATE AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES

     In addition to the federal income tax  consequences  described in "Material
Federal Income Tax Consequences,"  potential investors should consider the state
and local tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of the
Offered   Certificates.   State  tax  law  may  differ  substantially  from  the
corresponding  federal  tax law,  and the  discussion  above does not purport to
describe  any  aspect  of the  tax  laws of any  state  or  other  jurisdiction.
Therefore,  prospective  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"),
and the Code impose  certain  requirements  on employee  benefit  plans,  and on
certain other retirement plans and arrangements, including individual retirement
accounts and annuities, Keogh plans and collective investment funds and separate
accounts in which such plans,  accounts or  arrangements  are invested  that are
subject to the fiduciary responsibility  provisions of ERISA and Section 4975 of
the Code (all of which are hereinafter  referred to as "Plans"),  and on persons
who are fiduciaries  with respect to Plans, in connection with the investment of
Plan assets.  Certain  employee  benefit plans,  such as governmental  plans (as
defined in ERISA Section 3(32)), and, if no election has been made under Section
410(d) of the Code,  church plans (as defined in Section 3(33) of ERISA) are not
subject to ERISA requirements. Accordingly, assets of such plans may be invested
in Offered  Certificates  without regard to the ERISA  considerations  described
below,  subject to the provisions of other applicable federal and state law. Any
such plan which is qualified and exempt from taxation under Sections  401(a) and
501(a) of the Code, however, is subject to the prohibited  transaction rules set
forth in Section 503 of the Code.

     ERISA  generally  imposes on Plan  fiduciaries  certain  general  fiduciary
requirements, including those of investment prudence and diversification and the
requirement  that a Plan's  investments be made in accordance with the documents
governing  the Plan.  In addition,  ERISA and the Code prohibit a broad range of
transactions  involving assets of a Plan and persons ("Parties in Interest") who
have  certain  specified  relationships  to the  Plan,  unless  a  statutory  or
administrative  exemption  is  available.   Certain  Parties  in  Interest  that
participate in a prohibited  transaction may be subject to an excise tax imposed
pursuant  to Section  4975 of the Code,  unless a  statutory  or  administrative
exemption is available. These prohibited transactions generally are set forth in
Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code. 

PLAN ASSET REGULATIONS

     A Plan's investment in Certificates may cause the Trust Assets to be deemed
Plan  assets.  Section  2510.3-101  of  the  regulations  of the  United  States
Department  of Labor  ("DOL")  provides  that  when a Plan  acquires  an  equity

                                       87
<PAGE>

interest in an entity,  the Plan's assets include both such equity  interest and
an undivided  interest in each of the  underlying  assets of the entity,  unless
certain exceptions not applicable to this discussion apply, or unless the equity
participation  in the entity by "benefit  plan  investors"  (that is,  Plans and
certain employee benefit plans not subject to ERISA) is not  "significant."  For
this  purpose,  in  general,  equity  participation  in a  Trust  Fund  will  be
"significant" on any date if,  immediately after the most recent  acquisition of
any  Certificate,  25% or more of any class of  Certificates  is held by benefit
plan investors.

     Any person  who has  discretionary  authority  or  control  respecting  the
management or disposition of Plan assets, and any person who provides investment
advice with  respect to such assets for a fee, is a fiduciary  of the  investing
Plan.  If the Trust Assets  constitute  Plan assets,  then any party  exercising
management or  discretionary  control  regarding those assets,  such as a Master
Servicer,  a Special  Servicer or any  Sub-Servicer,  may be deemed to be a Plan
"fiduciary"  with  respect  to the  investing  Plan,  and  thus  subject  to the
fiduciary  responsibility  provisions and prohibited  transaction  provisions of
ERISA and the Code. In addition, if the Trust Assets constitute Plan assets, the
purchase of  Certificates by a Plan, as well as the operation of the Trust Fund,
may  constitute  or involve a prohibited  transaction  under ERISA and the Code.

PROHIBITED TRANSACTION EXEMPTIONS

     The  DOL  issued  an  individual   administrative   exemption,   Prohibited
Transaction Exemption 90-29 (the "Exemption"),  to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner
& Smith  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 Section 4975(a) and (b) of
the Code and  Section  502(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"  includes  (i)  Merrill  Lynch,  Pierce,  Fenner & Smith
Incorporated,  (ii) any  person  directly  or  indirectly,  through  one or more
intermediaries,  controlling, controlled by or under common control with Merrill
Lynch,  Pierce,  Fenner  &  Smith  Incorporated  and  (iii)  any  member  of the
underwriting syndicate or selling group of which Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner &
Smith Incorporated or a person described in (ii) is a manager or co-manager with
respect to a class of Certificates.

     The Exemption sets forth six general conditions which must be satisfied for
a transaction  involving the purchase,  sale and holding of  Certificates  to be
eligible for exemptive relief thereunder. First, the acquisition of 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
Exemption  only applies to  Certificates  evidencing  rights and  interests  not
subordinated to the rights and interests  evidenced by the other Certificates of
the same series.  Third, the 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  ("Standard & Poor's"),  Moody's Investors  Service,  Inc.
("Moody's"),  Duff & Phelps,  Inc. ("Duff & Phelps") or Fitch Investors Service,
Inc. ("Fitch").  Fourth, the Trustee cannot be an affiliate of any member of the
"Restricted  Group,"  which  consists of any  Underwriter,  the  Depositor,  the
Trustee,  the Master  Servicer,  any  Sub-Servicer,  the  provider of any Credit
Support and any obligor  with  respect to Mortgage  Assets  (including  mortgage
loans  underlying an MBS not issued by FNMA,  FHLMC or GNMA)  constituting  more
than 5% of the aggregate unamortized principal balance of the Mortgage Assets in
the related Trust Fund as of the date of initial  issuance of the  Certificates.
Fifth, the sum of all payments made to and retained by the  Underwriter(s)  must
represent  not  more  than  reasonable   compensation   for   underwriting   the
Certificates;  the sum of all  payments  made to and  retained by the  Depositor
pursuant to the assignment of the Mortgage Assets to the related 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  related  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.

     The  Exemption  also  requires  that each  Trust  Fund  meet the  following
requirements:  (i) the Trust Fund must consist solely of assets of the type that
have been included in other investment  pools;  (ii)  certificates in such other
investment pools must have been rated in one of the three highest  categories of
Standard & Poor's,  Moody's,  Duff & Phelps or Fitch for at least one year prior
to the Plan's acquisition of Certificates;  and (iii) certificates in such other

                                       88
<PAGE>

investment  pools must have been purchased by investors  other than Plans for at
least one year prior to any Plan's acquisition of Certificates.

     If the general conditions of the Exemption are satisfied, the Exemption may
provide an exemption from the restrictions imposed by Sections 406(a) and 407(a)
of ERISA (as well as the excise taxes imposed by Sections 4975(a) and (b) of the
Code by reason of Sections 4975(c)(1) (A) through (D) of the Code) in connection
with  (i)  the  direct  or  indirect  sale,  exchange  or  transfer  of  Offered
Certificates  acquired by a Plan upon issuance from the Depositor or Underwriter
when the Depositor,  Master Servicer, Special Servicer,  Sub-Servicer,  Trustee,
provider of Credit  Support,  Underwriter  or obligor  with  respect to Mortgage
Assets is a Party in  Interest  with  respect to the  investing  Plan,  (ii) the
direct or indirect  acquisition or  disposition in the secondary  market of fuel
Certificates by a Plan and (iii) the holding of Offered  Certificates by a Plan.
However,   no  exemption  is  provided   from  the   restrictions   of  Sections
406(a)(1)(E),  406(a)(2)  and 407 of ERISA for the  acquisition  or holding of a
Certificate on behalf of an "Excluded Plan" by any person who has  discretionary
authority  or  renders  investment  advice  with  respect  to the assets of such
Excluded Plan. For purposes hereof,  an Excluded Plan is a Plan sponsored by any
member of the Restricted Group.

     If certain  specific  conditions of the Exemption are also  satisfied,  the
Exemption  may provide an exemption  from the  restrictions  imposed by Sections
406(b)(1) and (b)(2) of ERISA and the taxes imposed by Section  4975(c)(1)(E) of
the Code in  connection  with (i) the  direct  or  indirect  sale,  exchange  or
transfer of Offered Certificates in the initial issuance of Offered Certificates
between  the  Depositor  or an  Underwriter  and a Plan when the  person who has
discretionary  authority  or  renders  investment  advice  with  respect  to the
investment of Plan assets in such Certificates is (a) an obligor with respect to
5% or less of the fair market value of the Mortgage Assets  (including  mortgage
loans  underlying an MBS not issued by FNMA, FHLMC or GNMA) in the related Trust
Fund  or (b) an  affiliate  of  such a  person,  (ii)  the  direct  or  indirect
acquisition or disposition in the secondary market of Offered  Certificates by a
Plan and (iii) the holding of Offered Certificates by a Plan.

     Further, if certain specific conditions of the Exemption are satisfied, the
Exemption  may provide an exemption  from the  restrictions  imposed by Sections
406(a),  406(b) and 407(a) of ERISA,  and the taxes imposed by Sections  4975(a)
and (b) of the Code by reason of Section 4975(c) of the Code for transactions in
connection with the servicing, management and operation of the Trust Assets.

     The Exemption also may provide an exemption from the  restrictions  imposed
by Sections 406(a) and 407(a) of ERISA, and the taxes imposed by Section 4975(a)
and (b) of the Code by reason of Sections 4975(c)(1) (a) through (D) of the Code
if such  restrictions  are deemed to otherwise  apply merely because a person is
deemed to be a Party in Interest with respect to an investing  Plan by virtue of
providing  services  to the Plan  (or by  virtue  of  having  certain  specified
relationships  to such a person)  solely as a result of the Plan's  ownership of
Offered Certificates.

     Before  purchasing  a  Certificate,  a fiduciary  of a Plan  should  itself
confirm (i) that the Offered Certificates constitute "certificates" for purposes
of the Exemption and (ii) that the specific and general  conditions set forth in
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 its general fiduciary obligations under ERISA in determining whether to
purchase any Offered Certificates on behalf of a Plan.

     Any fiduciary of a Plan that proposes to cause the Plan to purchase Offered
Certificates  should  consult  with its counsel  with  respect to the  potential
applicability  of ERISA and the Code to such investment and the  availability of
(and  scope  of  relief  provided  by) the  Exemption  or any  other  prohibited
transaction  exemption in connection  therewith.  The Prospectus Supplement with
respect to a series of Certificates may contain additional information regarding
the  application  of the Exemption or any other  exemption,  with respect to the
Certificates  offered thereby. In addition,  any Plan fiduciary that proposes to
cause a Plan to purchase  Stripped  Interest  Certificates  should  consider the
federal income tax consequences of such investment.

                                LEGAL INVESTMENT

     The Offered  Certificates of any series will constitute  "mortgage  related
securities"  for purposes of the Secondary  Mortgage  Market  Enhancement Act of
1984  ("SMMEA")  only if so  specified  in the  related  Prospectus  Supplement.
Accordingly,   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.



                                       89

     Generally,  only 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  evidencing  interests  in a Trust  Fund  consisting  of loans
secured by a single  parcel of real  estate  upon which is located a dwelling or
mixed residential and commercial  structure,  such as certain Multifamily Loans,
and  originated by types of  Originators  specified in SMMEA,  will be "mortgage
related  securities" for purposes of SMMEA.  "Mortgage  related  securities" are
legal  investments 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 persons,
trusts, corporations,  partnerships,  associations, business trusts and business
entities  (including  depository  institutions,  insurance companies and pension
funds created  pursuant to or existing under the laws of the United States or of
any state, the authorized investments of which are subject to state regulation).
Under  SMMEA,  if a state  enacted  legislation  prior to  October  3, 1991 that
specifically  limits the legal  investment  authority of any such  entities with
respect to "mortgage related  securities," Offered Certificates would constitute
legal  investments for entities  subject to such  legislation 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 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,  effective
December 31, 1996,  the Office of the  Comptroller  of the Currency  (the "OCC")
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  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 classes of Offered  Certificates),  except
under limited circumstances.

     Upon the  issuance  of final  implementing  regulations  under  the  Riegle
Community Development and Regulatory  Improvement Act of 1994 and subject to any
limitations  those  regulations may impose,  a modification of the definition of
"mortgage  related  securities" will become effective to include among the types
of loans to which  such  securities  may  relate  loans  secured by "one or more
parcels of real estate upon which is located one or more commercial structures."
In  addition,   the  related  legislative  history  states  that  this  expanded
definition  includes  multifamily  loans secured by more than one parcel of real
estate upon which is located more than one structure.  Until  September 23, 2001
any state may enact  legislation  limiting the extent to which "mortgage related
securities"  under this expanded  definition would constitute legal  investments
under that state's laws.

     All  depository  institutions  considering  an  investment  in the  Offered
Certificates  of any series  should  review the Federal  Financial  Institutions
Examination   Council's   Supervisory  Policy  Statement  on  the  Selection  of
Securities Dealers and Unsuitable Investment Practices (to the extent adopted by
their  respective  regulatory  authorities),  setting  forth,  in relevant part,
certain  investment  practices  deemed  to be  unsuitable  for an  institution's
investment  portfolio,  as well as guidelines  for investing in certain types of
mortgage related securities.

     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 


                                       90
<PAGE>

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.  Investors  should  consult their own legal advisors in
determining whether and to what extent the Offered Certificates constitute legal
investments for such investors.

                             METHOD OF DISTRIBUTION

     The Offered Certificates  offered hereby and by the Prospectus  Supplements
hereto will be offered in series.  The distribution of the Offered  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.  The
Prospectus  Supplement for the Offered  Certificates  of each series will, as to
each class of such  Certificates,  set forth the method of the offering,  either
the initial public  offering price or the method by which the price at which the
Certificates  of such class will be sold to the  public can be  determined,  the
amount  of  any   underwriting   discounts,   concessions   and  commissions  to
underwriters,  any  discounts  or  commissions  to be allowed to dealers and the
proceeds of the offering to the Depositor.

     If  so  specified  in  the  related  Prospectus  Supplement,   the  Offered
Certificates of a series will be distributed in a firm commitment  underwriting,
subject to the terms and conditions of the  underwriting  agreement,  by Merrill
Lynch,  Pierce,  Fenner  &  Smith  Incorporated   ("Merrill  Lynch")  acting  as
underwriter with other underwriters, if any, named therein.  Alternatively,  the
Prospectus  Supplement may specify that Offered Certificates will be distributed
by Merrill Lynch acting as agent.  If Merrill Lynch acts as agent in the sale of
Offered  Certificates,  Merrill  Lynch 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 date of issuance.  The exact percentage for each
series of Certificates will be disclosed in the related  Prospectus  Supplement.
To the extent that Merrill  Lynch  elects to purchase  Offered  Certificates  as
principal, Merrill Lynch 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.

     This  Prospectus  and  related  Prospectus  Supplements  may be used by the
Depositor, Merrill Lynch, an affiliate of the Depositor, and any other affiliate
of the Depositor when required under the federal  securities  laws in connection
with offers and sales of Offered  Certificates  in furtherance of  market-making
activities in Offered  Certificates.  Merrill Lynch or any such other  affiliate
may act as principal or agent in such  transactions.  Such sales will be made at
prices related to prevailing market prices at the time of sale or otherwise.

     The Depositor  will agree to indemnify  Merrill Lynch and any  underwriters
and their  respective  controlling  persons against  certain civil  liabilities,
including  liabilities  under the Securities Act of 1933, or will  contribute to
payments that any such person may be required to make in respect thereof.

     In the ordinary  course of business,  Merrill  Lynch 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.

     The  Depositor  anticipates  that  the  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 class of  Certificates  not offered hereby may be initially  retained by the
Depositor,  and  may  be  sold  by the  Depositor  at any  time  to one or  more
institutional investors.

                                  LEGAL MATTERS

     Unless otherwise  specified in the related Prospectus  Supplement,  certain
legal  matters in connection  with the  Certificates  of each series,  including
certain federal income tax  consequences,  will be passed upon for the Depositor
and for Merrill Lynch,  Pierce,  Fenner & Smith  Incorporated  by Willkie Farr &
Gallagher, 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 at least one Rating Agency.

     Ratings on mortgage  pass-through  certificates  address the  likelihood of
receipt by the holders  thereof of all  collections on the  underlying  mortgage
assets to which such holders are entitled. These ratings address the structural,
legal and issuer-related  aspects associated with such certificates,  the nature
of the underlying  mortgage  assets 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 borrowers 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.
