_______________
(1)  The Sub Pool HE Certificates will be priced, with respect to the Fixed Rate
     Home Equity Contracts, using 125% of the Base Prepayment Assumption. The
     Base Prepayment Assumption assumes a conditional prepayment rate of 4% per
     annum of the then outstanding principal balance of the Fixed Rate Home
     Equity Contracts in the first month of the life of the Fixed Rate Home
     Equity Contracts and an additional 1.45% (precisely, 16/11%) per annum in
     each month thereafter until the twelfth month. Beginning in the twelfth
     month and in each month thereafter, the conditional prepayment rate is 20%.
     The Sub Pool HE Certificates will be priced, with respect to the Adjustable
     Rate Home Equity Contracts, using a constant prepayment rate of 30% CPR.
     The Sub Pool HI Certificates will be priced using 100% of a prepayment rate
     assuming a conditional prepayment rate of 12% per annum of the then
     outstanding principal balance of the Home Improvement Contracts in the
     first month of the life of the Home Improvement Contracts and an additional
     0.73% (precisely, 8/11%) per annum in each month thereafter until the
     twelfth month. Beginning in the twelfth month and in each month thereafter,
     the conditional prepayment rate is 20%.

(2)  Interest will be based on a notional principal amount which will equal
     $20,000,000 (or the Class HE: A Principal Balance for such Payment Date, if
     less) for the first 36 Payment Dates, and will thereafter, equal zero. The
     Class HE:A-6 IO Certificates are interest-only Certificates and are not
     entitled to receive distributions of capital.

                         Contracts"). During a limited period following the
                         Closing Date, the Trust Fund will purchase subsequent
                         contracts ("Subsequent Home Improvement Contracts" and
                         "Subsequent Home Equity Contracts" and, collectively,
                         "Subsequent Contracts"). It is expected that the
                         additional and Subsequent Contracts will have
                         characteristics which are substantially similar to the
                         related group of original contracts.

                    HOME IMPROVEMENT CERTIFICATE STRUCTURE

CREDIT ENHANCEMENT:      Class HI:A:   20.00% subordination (Class HI:M-1, HI:M-
                                       2, HI:B-1 and HI:B-2) & Residual (Class
                                       C)
                         Class HI:M-1: 12.00% subordination (Class HI:M-2, HI:B-
                                       1, and HI:B-2) & Residual (Class C)
                         Class HI:M-2: 7.00% subordination (Class HI:B-1 and
                                       HI:B-2) & Residual (Class C)
                         Class HI:B-1: 2.25% subordination (Class HI:B-2) &
                                       Residual (Class C)
                         Class HI:B-2: Limited Guaranty & Residual (Class C)


DISTRIBUTIONS:           The Sub-Pool HI Amount Available will generally consist
                         of payments made on or in respect of the Home
                         Improvement Contracts comprising Sub-Pool HI, and will
                         include amounts otherwise payable to the Servicer (as
                         long as Green Tree is the Servicer) as the Monthly
                         Servicing Fee with respect to the Home Improvement
                         Contracts, and to the Class C Certificateholder. 

                         The Sub Pool HI Amount Available will generally be
                         applied first to the distributions to the Class HI:A
                         Certificateholders, then to the Class HI:M-1
                         Certificateholders, then to the Class HI:M-
                         2Certificateholders, then to the Class HI:B-1
                         Certificateholders, and then to the Class HI:B-2
                         Certificateholders.

                         Class HI:A Certificates are senior to Class HI:M and
                         Class HI:B Certificates. Class HI:M Certificates are
                         senior to the Class HI:B Certificates.

LOSSES ON LIQUIDATED
  HI CONTRACTS:          If Net Liquidation Proceeds from Liquidated Contracts
                         in the respective collection period are less than the
                         Scheduled Principal Balance of such Liquidated Contract
                         plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, the
                         deficiency will be absorbed by the Class C
                         Certificateholder, then the Guaranty Fee otherwise
                         payable to the Company, then the Monthly Servicing Fee
                         otherwise payable to the Servicer (as long as Green
                         Tree is the Servicer), then the Class HI:B-2
                         Certificateholders, then the Class HI:B-1
                         Certificateholders, then the Class HI:M-2
                         Certificateholders and then the Class HI:M-1
                         Certificateholders.

PRE-FUNDING FEATURE:     On the Closing Date, a portion of the proceeds from the
                         sale of the Class HI Certificates (the "Sub-Pool HI 
                         Pre-Funded Amount") will be deposited with the Trustee
                         in a segregated account (the "Sub-Pool HI Pre-Funding
                         Account") and used by the Trust to purchase Subsequent
                         Home Improvement Contracts during a period (not longer
                         than 90 days) following the Closing Date (the "Pre-
                         Funding Period"). The Sub-Pool HI Pre-Funded Amount
                         will be reduced during the Pre-Funding Period by the
                         amounts thereof used to fund such purchases. Any
                         amounts remaining in the Sub-Pool HI Pre-Funding
                         Account following the Pre-Funding Period will be
                         distributed to the Class HI:A-1 Certificateholders.

CLASS HI:A INTEREST:     Interest will be paid concurrently on each Class of
                         Class HI:A Certificates at the related Pass-Through
                         Rate on the then outstanding related Class Principal
                         Balance. Interest will initially accrue from the
                         Settlement Date and thereafter will accrue from the
                         most recent Payment Date on which interest has been
                         paid, in each case, to but excluding the following
                         Payment Date. Interest will be computed on a 30/360
                         basis. 

                         In the event that, on a particular Payment Date, the
                         Class HI:A Remaining Amount Available, plus other funds
                         in the Certificate Account available therefor, are not
                         sufficient to make a full distribution of interest to
                         the holders of outstanding Class HI:A Certificates, the
                         amount of interest to be distributed in respect of the
                         Class HI:A Certificates will be allocated among the
                         Class HI:A Certificates pro rata in accordance with
                         their respective entitlements to interest, and the
                         amount of the deficiency will be carried forward as an
                         amount that the Class HI:A Certificateholders are
                         entitled to receive on the next Payment Date. Any
                         amounts so carried forward will bear interest at the
                         applicable Class HI:A Pass-Through Rate, to the extent
                         legally permissible.

CLASS HI:A PRINCIPAL:    After payment of all interest distributable to the
                         Class HI:A Certificateholders, the Sub-Pool HI Senior
                         Percentage of the Sub-Pool HI Formula Principal
                         Distribution Amount will be distributed first to the
                         Class HI:A-1 Certificateholders, until the Class HI:A-1
                         Principal Balance has been reduced to zero, then to the
                         Class HI:A-2 Certificateholders until the Class HI:A-2
                         Principal Balance has been reduced to zero, then to the
                         Class HI:A-3 Certificateholders until the Class HI:A-3
                         Principal Balance has been reduced to zero, and then to
                         the Class HI:A-4 Certificateholders until the Class
                         HI:A-4 Principal Balance has been reduced to zero.

                         The "Sub-Pool HI Senior Percentage" will equal 100% if
                         any of the following exist:
                         i)   the Payment Date is prior to April 2001 (month
                              37); or
                         ii)  each Class HI:B Principal Distribution Test (see
                              below) is not satisfied.

                         Otherwise, the Sub-Pool HI Senior Percentage will equal
                         a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the
                         Class HI:A Principal Balance and the Class HI:M
                         Principal Balance for a given Payment Date, and the
                         denominator of which is the Scheduled Principal Balance
                         of Sub-Pool HI for the immediately preceding Payment
                         Date.

CLASS HI:M-1 INTEREST:   After payment of Class HI:A Distribution Amount,
                         interest will be paid to the Class HI:M-1
                         Certificateholders in an amount equal to the product of
                         (a) the Class HI:M-1 Pass-Through Rate and (b) the then
                         outstanding Class HI:M-1 Principal Balance (less the
                         Class HI:M-1 Liquidation Loss Principal Amount, if
                         any). Interest will initially accrue from the
                         Settlement Date and thereafter will accrue from the
                         most recent Payment Date on which interest has been
                         paid, in each case, to but excluding the following
                         Payment Date. Interest will be computed on a 30/360
                         basis. Interest shortfalls will be carried forward, and
                         will bear interest at the Class HI:M-1 Pass-Through
                         Rate, to the extent legally permissible.

CLASS HI:M-1 PRINCIPAL:  Class HI:M-1 Certificateholders will not receive
                         principal until the Class HI:A Principal Balance has
                         been reduced to zero. At that time the Class HI:M-1
                         Certificateholders will be entitled to receive the Sub-
                         Pool HI Senior Percentage of the Sub-Pool HI Formula
                         Principal Distribution Amount, until the Class HI:M-1
                         Principal Balance has been reduced to zero.

CLASS HI:M-2 INTEREST:   After payment of Class HI:A and Class HI:M-1
                         Distribution Amount, interest will be paid to the Class
                         HI:M-2 Certificateholders in an amount equal to the
                         product of (a) the Class HI:M-2 Pass-Through Rate and
                         (b) the then outstanding Class HI:M-2 Principal Balance
                         (less the Class HI:M-2 Liquidation Loss Principal
                         Amount, if any). Interest will initially accrue from
                         the Settlement Date and thereafter will accrue from the
                         most recent Payment Date on which interest has been
                         paid to, in each case, but excluding the following
                         Payment Date. Interest will be computed on a 30/360
                         basis. Interest shortfalls will be carried forward, and
                         will bear interest at the Class HI:M-2 Pass-Through
                         Rate, to the extent legally permissible.

CLASS HI:M-2 PRINCIPAL:  Class HI:M-2 Certificateholders will not receive
                         principal until Class HI:A and Class HI:M-1 Principal
                         Balances have been reduced to zero. At that time the
                         Class HI:M-2 Certificateholders will be entitled to
                         receive the Sub-Pool HI Senior Percentage of the Sub-
                         Pool HI Formula Principal Distribution Amount, until
                         the Class HI:M-2 Principal Balance has been reduced to
                         zero.

CLASS HI:B-1 INTEREST:   After payment of Class HI:A, Class HI:M-1 and Class
                         HI:M-2 Distribution Amounts, interest will be paid to
                         the Class HI:B-1 Certificateholders in an amount equal
                         to the product of (a) the Class HI:B-1 Pass-Through
                         Rate and (b) the then outstanding Class HI:B-1
                         Principal Balance (less the Class HI:B-1 Liquidation
                         Loss Principal Amount, if any). Interest will initially
                         accrue from the Settlement Date and thereafter will
                         accrue from the most recent Payment Date on which
                         interest has been paid to, in each case, but excluding
                         the following Payment Date. Interest will be computed
                         on a 30/360 basis. Interest shortfalls will be carried
                         forward, and will bear interest at the Class HI:B-1
                         Pass-Through Rate, to the extent legally permissible.

CLASS HI:B-1 PRINCIPAL:  The Class HI:B-1 Certificateholders will not receive
                         principal payments until (i) the Class HI:B Cross-over
                         Date and (ii) such time as either (a) each Class HI:B
                         Principal Distribution Test is satisfied or (b) the
                         Class HI:A Principal Balance and the Class HI:M
                         Principal Balance have each been reduced to zero. At
                         that time, to the extent of the amount available after
                         payment of Class HI:A and Class HI:M Distribution
                         Amounts and Class HI:B-1 interest, Class HI:B-1
                         Certificateholders will receive the Class HI:B
                         Percentage of the Sub-Pool HI Formula Principal
                         Distribution Amount until the Class HI:B-1 Principal
                         Balance has been reduced to zero. 

                         The Class HI:B Percentage will be equal to 100% minus
                         the Sub-Pool HI Senior Percentage. The Class HI:B
                         Percentage after the Class HI:A and Class HI:M
                         Principal Balances have been reduced to zero will be
                         equal to 100%.


CLASS HI:B PRINCIPAL 
   DISTRIBUTION TESTS:   (i)    the average of the Sub-Pool HI Sixty-Day
                                Delinquency Ratio as of the given Payment Date
                                and the prior two Payment Dates must not exceed
                                2.5%;
                         (ii)   the average of the Sub-Pool HI Thirty-Day
                                Delinquency Ratio as of the given Payment Date
                                and the prior two Payment Dates must not exceed
                                5%;
                         (iii)  the Sub-Pool HI Cumulative Realized Losses as of
                                the given Payment Date must not exceed 10%;
                         (iv)   the Sub-Pool HI Current Realized Loss Ratio as
                                of the given Payment Date must not exceed 2.5%;
                                and
                         (v)    the Class HI:B Principal Balance divided by the
                                Pool Scheduled Principal Balance of Sub-Pool HI
                                as of the immediately preceding Payment Date
                                must be equal to or greater than 14%.

CLASS HI:B-2 INTEREST:   After payment of Class HI:A, Class HI:M-1, Class HI:M-2
                         and Class HI:B-1 Distribution Amounts, interest will be
                         paid to the Class HI:B-2 Certificateholders in an
                         amount equal to the product of (a) the Class HI:B-2
                         Pass-Through Rate and (b) the then outstanding Class
                         HI:B-2 Principal Balance (less the Class HI:B-2
                         Liquidation Loss Principal Amount, if any). The Class
                         HI:B-2 Limited Guaranty will be available to pay
                         interest to the Class HI:B-2 Certificateholders if the
                         Class HI:B-2 Remaining Amount Available is not
                         sufficient. Interest will initially accrue from the
                         Settlement Date and thereafter will accrue from the
                         most recent Payment Date on which interest has been
                         paid to, in each case, but excluding the following
                         Payment Date. Interest will be computed on a 30/360
                         basis. Interest shortfalls will be carried forward, and
                         will bear interest at the Class HI:B-2 Pass-Through
                         Rate, to the extent legally permissible.

CLASS HI:B-2 PRINCIPAL:  Except as described below, the Class HI:B-2
                         Certificateholders will not receive principal payments
                         until the Class HI:B-1 Principal Balance has been
                         reduced to zero. At that time, if each Class HI:B
                         Principal Distribution Test is satisfied (unless the
                         Class HI:A and Class HI:M Principal Balances have been
                         reduced to zero), to the extent of the amount available
                         after payment of the Class HI:A, the Class HI:M and the
                         Class HI:B-1 Distribution Amounts and any amounts
                         actually paid under the Class HI:B-2 Limited Guaranty,
                         the Class HI:B-2 Certificateholders will receive the
                         Class HI:B Percentage of the Sub-Pool HI Formula
                         Principal Distribution Amount until Class HI:B-2
                         Principal Balance has been reduced to zero. 

                         On each Payment Date, the Class HI:B-2
                         Certificateholders will also be entitled to receive,
                         pursuant to the Class HI:B-2 Limited Guaranty, the
                         Class HI:B-2 Liquidation Loss Principal Amount until
                         the Class HI:B-2 Principal Balance has been reduced to
                         zero.

CLASS HI:B-2 LIMITED 
  GUARANTY:              The Class HI:B-2 Limited Guaranty will be available to
                         pay the Class HI: B-2 Liquidation Loss Principal Amount
                         and the Class HI:B-2 Distribution Amount. The Class
                         HI:B-2 Limited Guaranty will be an unsecured general
                         obligation of the Company.

                            Class HE:B-2:  Limited Guaranty & Residual (Class C)

DISTRIBUTIONS:              Sub-Pool HE includes adjustable-rate closed-end home
                            equity loans subject to interest rate adjustments
                            after an initial period of up to 36 months (the
                            "Adjustable Rate Home Equity Contracts"; all Home
                            Equity Contracts other than the Adjustable Rate Home
                            Equity Contracts are referred to herein as the
                            "Fixed Rate Home Equity Contracts").

                             The Sub-Pool HE Amount Available will generally
                            consist of payments made on or in respect of the
                            Home Equity Contracts comprising Sub-Pool HE, and
                            will include amounts otherwise payable to the
                            Servicer (as long as Green Tree is the Servicer) as
                            the Monthly Servicing Fee with respect to the Home
                            Equity Contracts, and to the Class C
                            Certificateholder.

                            The Sub Pool HE Amount Available will generally be
                            applied first to the distributions to the Class HE:A
                            Certificateholders, then to the Class HE:M-1
                            Certificateholders, then to the Class HE:M-
                            2Certificateholders, then to the Class HE:B-1
                            Certificateholders, and then to the Class HE:B-2
                            Certificateholders.

                            Class HE:A Certificates are senior to Class HE:M and
                            Class HE:B Certificates. Class HE:M Certificates are
                            senior to the Class HE:B Certificates.

PRE-FUNDING FEATURE:        On the Closing Date, a portion of the proceeds from
                            the sale of the Class HE:Certificates (the "Sub-Pool
                            HE Pre-Funded Amount") will be deposited with the
                            Trustee in a segregated account (the "Sub-Pool HE
                            Pre-Funding Account") and used by the Trust to
                            purchase Subsequent Home Equity Contracts during the
                            Pre-Funding Period. The Sub-Pool HE Pre-Funded
                            Amount will be reduced during the Pre-Funding Period
                            by the amounts thereof used to fund such purchases.
                            Any amounts remaining in the Sub-Pool HE Pre-Funding
                            Account following the Pre-Funding Period will be (i)
                            paid in respect of each class of Class HE:
                            Certificates (other than the Class: HE: A-1 ARM
                            Certificates) on a pro-rata basis in the case of
                            amounts which had been allocated to fund the
                            purchase of Subsequent Home Equity Contracts which
                            are Fixed Rate Home Equity Contracts, and (ii) paid
                            in respect of the Class HE: A-1 ARM Certificates in
                            the case of amounts which had been allocated to fund
                            the purchase of Subsequent Home Equity Contracts
                            which are Adjustable Rate Home Equity Contracts.

LOSSES ON LIQUIDATED
HE CONTRACTS:               If Net Liquidation Proceeds from Liquidated
                            Contracts in the respective collection period are
                            less than the Scheduled Principal Balance of such
                            Liquidated Contracts plus accrued and unpaid
                            interest thereon, the deficiency will be absorbed by
                            the Class C Certificateholder, then the Guaranty Fee
                            otherwise payable to the Company, then the Monthly
                            Servicing Fee otherwise payable to the Servicer (as
                            long as Green Tree is the Servicer), then the Class
                            HE:B-2 Certificateholders, then the Class HE:B-1
                            Certificateholders, then the Class HE:M-2
                            Certificateholders and then the Class HE:M-1
                            Certificateholders.


CLASS HE:A INTEREST:        Interest will be paid concurrently on each Class of
                            Class HE:A Certificates at the related Pass-Through
                            Rate on the then outstanding related Class Principal
                            Balance (in the case of Class HE:A Certificates
                            other than the Class HE:A-6 IO Certificates) or
                            based on the "Notional Principal Amount" (in the
                            case of the Class HE:A-6 IO Certificates). Interest
                            will be calculated on the Class HE:A-6 IO
                            Certificates on the basis of a "Notional Principal
                            Amount" equal to the lesser of (a) the principal
                            balance of the Class HE:A Certificates and (b)
                            $20,000,000 (reference to the Notional Principal
                            Amount is solely for convenience in certain
                            calculations and does not represent the right to
                            receive any distribution allocable to principal).
                            The Class HE:A-6 IO Certificates are entitled to
                            receive interest payments only through the Payment
                            Date in March 2001. Interest will initially accrue
                            from the Settlement Date and thereafter will accrue
                            from the most recent Payment Date on which interest
                            has been paid, in each case, to but excluding the
                            following Payment Date.

                            The Class HE:A-1B ARM Certificates will bear
                            interest at a variable Pass-Through Rate calculated
                            on an actual/360 basis. The Pass Through Rate for
                            the Class HE:A-1B ARM Certificates will be floating
                            and will equal the lesser of:
 
                              i.   one-month LIBOR plus the Pass-Through Margin;
                              ii.  the Available Funds Pass-Through Rate; or
                              iii. 14.00%.
 
                            The Pass-Through Margin will equal [___%] per annum
                            through the Payment Date on which the principal
                            balance of the Home Equity and Home Improvement
                            Contracts is 10% or more of the Principal Balance of
                            the Home Equity Contracts and Home Improvement
                            Contracts as of the Cut-off Date, and [2 x initial
                            pricing margin] per annum on each Payment Date on
                            which the principal balance of the Home Equity
                            Contracts and Home Improvement Contracts is less
                            than 10% of the Principal Balance of the Home Equity
                            Contracts and Home Improvement Contracts as of the
                            Cut-off Date. The Available Funds Pass-Through Rate
                            for any Payment Date will be a rate per annum equal
                            to the weighted average of the Expense Adjusted
                            Mortgage Rates on the then outstanding Adjustable
                            Rate Contracts. The Expense Adjusted Mortgage Rate
                            on any Adjustable Rate Contract is equal to the then
                            applicable Loan Interest Rate thereon, minus the
                            Expense Fee Rate, which is 0.75% per annum and equal
                            to the sum of the servicing fee and the trustee fee.
 
                            Each other Class of Class HE:A Certificates and the
                            Class HE:A-1A ARM Certificates will bear interest at
                            a fixed Pass-Through Rate calculated on a 30/360
                            basis. Interest shortfalls will be carried forward,
                            and will bear interest at the applicable Class A
                            Pass-Through Rate, to the extent legally
                            permissible.

                            Otherwise, the Sub-Pool HE Senior Percentage will
                            equal a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum
                            of the Class HE:A Principal Balance (excluding the
                            Class HE:A-1A ARM Principal Balance and the Class

                            Certificates are interest-only Certificates and are
                            not entitled to receive distributions of principal.

CLASS HE:M-1 INTEREST:      After payment of the Class HE:A Distribution Amount,
                            interest will be paid to the Class HE:M-1
                            Certificateholders in an amount equal to the product
                            of (a) the Class HE:M-1 Pass-Through Rate and (b)
                            the then outstanding Class HE:M-1 Principal Balance

                            Amount, if any). Interest will initially accrue from
                            the Settlement Date and thereafter will accrue from
                            the most recent Payment Date on which interest has
                            been paid to, in each case, but excluding the
                            following Payment Date. Interest will be computed on
                            a 30/360 basis. Interest shortfalls will be carried
                            forward, and will bear interest at the Class HE:M-1
                            Pass-Through Rate, to the extent legally
                            permissible.

CLASS HE:M-1 PRINCIPAL:     Class HE:M-1 Certificateholders will not receive
                            principal until the Class HE:A Principal Balance has
                            been reduced to zero. At that time the Class HE:M-1
                            Certificateholders will be entitled to receive the
                            Sub-Pool HE Senior Percentage of the Sub-Pool HE
                            Formula Principal Distribution Amount, until the
                            Class HE:M-1 Principal Balance has been reduced to
                            zero.

CLASS HE:M-2 INTEREST:      After payment of the Class HE:A and Class HE:M-1
                            Distribution Amount, interest will be paid to the
                            Class HE:M-2 Certificateholders in an amount equal
                            to the product of (a) the Class HE:M-2 Pass-Through
                            Rate and (b) the then outstanding Class HE:M-2
                            Principal Balance (less the Class HE:M-2 Liquidation
                            Loss Principal Amount, if any). Interest will
                            initially accrue from the Settlement Date and
                            thereafter will accrue from the most recent Payment
                            Date on which interest has been paid to, in each
                            case, but excluding the following Payment Date.
                            Interest will be computed on a 30/360 basis.
                            Interest shortfalls will be carried forward, and
                            will bear interest at the Class HE:M-2 Pass-Through
                            Rate, to the extent legally permissible.

CLASS HE:M-2 PRINCIPAL:     Class HE:M-2 Certificateholders will not receive
                            principal until the Class HE:A and Class HE:M-1
                            Principal Balances have been reduced to zero. At
                            that time Class HE:M-2 will be entitled to receive
                            the Sub-Pool HE Senior Percentage of the Sub-Pool HE
                            Formula Principal Distribution Amount, until the
                            Class HE:M-2 Principal Balance has been reduced to

                            paid to the Class HE:B-1 Certificateholders in an
                            amount equal to the product of (a) the Class HE:B-1
                            Pass-Through Rate and (b) the then outstanding Class
                            HE:B-1 Principal Balance (less the Class HE:B-1
                            Liquidation Loss Principal Amount, if any). Interest
                            will initially accrue from the Settlement Date and
                            thereafter will accrue from the most recent Payment
                            Date on which interest has been paid to, in each
                            case, but excluding the following Payment Date.
                            Interest will be computed on a 30/360 basis.
                            Interest shortfalls will be carried forward, and
                            will bear interest at the Class HE:B-1 Pass-Through
                            Rate, to the extent legally permissible.

CLASS HE:B-1 PRINCIPAL:     The Class HE:B-1 Certificateholders will not receive
                            principal payments until (i) the Class HE:B Cross-

                            Amount, if any). The Class HE:B-2 Limited Guaranty
                            will be available to pay interest to the Class HE:B-
                            2 Certificateholders if the Class HE:B-2 Remaining
                            Amount Available is not sufficient. Interest will
                            initially accrue from the Settlement Date and
                            thereafter will accrue from the most recent Payment
                            Date on which interest has been paid to, in each
                            case, but excluding the following Payment Date.
                            Interest will be computed on a 30/360 basis.
                            Interest shortfalls will be carried forward, and
                            will bear interest at the Class HE:B-2 Pass-Through
                            Rate, to the extent legally permissible.

                          HOME IMPROVEMENT CONTRACTS

     The Home Improvement Contracts comprising Sub-Pool HI consist of
conventional and FHA-insured home improvement contracts and promissory notes.
The obligations of the Obligor under each Home Improvement Contract are secured
by the related real estate.

     The information concerning the Initial Home Improvement Contracts presented
below is based on a pool originated through February 28, 1998.  Green Tree
intends to acquire and sell Additional Home Improvement Contracts to the Trust
by the Closing Date and Subsequent Home Improvement Contracts to the Trust
thereafter.  Although the characteristics of the final pool of Home Improvement
Contracts will differ from the characteristics of the Initial Home Improvement
Contracts shown below, Green Tree does not expect that the characteristics of
the Additional and Subsequent Home Improvement Contracts sold to the Trust will
vary materially from those of the Initial Home Improvement Contracts herein.

                             HOME EQUITY CONTRACTS

     The Home Equity Contracts comprising Sub-Pool HE consist of both fixed rate
and adjustable rate closed-end home equity contracts.  The adjustable rate
closed-end home equity contracts are subject to interest rate adjustments after
an initial six month, twenty-four month, or thirty-six month period (the
"Adjustable Rate Home Equity Contracts").  All Home Equity Contracts which are
not Adjustable Rate Contracts are referred herein as "Fixed Rate Home Equity
Contracts."  The obligations of the Obligor under each Home Equity Contract are
secured by the related real estate.

     The information concerning the Initial Home Equity Contracts presented
below is based on a pool originated through February 28, 1998.  Green Tree
intends to acquire and sell Additional Home Equity Contracts to the Trust by the
Closing Date and Subsequent Contracts to the Trust thereafter.  Although the
characteristics of the final pool of Home Equity Contracts will differ from the
characteristics of the Initial Home Equity Contracts shown below, Green Tree
does not expect that the characteristics of the Additional and Subsequent Home
Equity Contracts sold to the Trust will vary materially from those of the
Initial Home Equity Contracts herein.
