PROCEEDS OF THE ASSETS IN THE TRUST FUND ARE THE SOLE SOURCE OF PAYMENTS
ON THE OFFERED CERTIFICATES. THE OFFERED CERTIFICATES DO NOT REPRESENT AN
INTEREST IN OR OBLIGATION OF THE DEPOSITOR OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES. NEITHER
THE OFFERED CERTIFICATES NOR THE MORTGAGE LOANS ARE INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY
ANY GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY OR INSTRUMENTALITY OR BY THE DEPOSITOR OR ANY OF ITS
AFFILIATES.
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES
AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION, NOR HAS THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED
UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT OR THE
PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD REVIEW THE INFORMATION APPEARING UNDER THE
CAPTION "RISK FACTORS" BEGINNING ON PAGE S-20 HEREIN AND PAGE 17 IN THE
PROSPECTUS BEFORE PURCHASING ANY OFFERED CERTIFICATE.
The Offered Certificates will be purchased from the Depositor by Chase
Securities Inc., Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. and PaineWebber Incorporated
(collectively, the "Underwriters") and will be offered by 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 estimated to be approximately $1,584,000, will be 105.401% of the
initial aggregate Certificate Balance of the Offered Certificates, plus
accrued interest on the Offered Certificates from the Cut-off Date. The
Offered Certificates are offered by the Underwriters subject to prior sale,
when, as and if delivered to and accepted by the Underwriters and subject to
certain other conditions. 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 ("DTC") on or about July 30, 1996 (the
"Closing Date").
The Depositor has selected three equal co-lead managers in connection with
the sale of the Offered Certificates. Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. is the book
running manager with all Offered Certificates being sold solely on a
retention basis and each co-lead manager purchasing one-third of each Class
of Offered Certificates.

(1) Approximate, subject to a permitted variance of plus or minus 5%.
(2) The Assumed Final Distribution Dates set forth above have been
determined on the basis of the assumptions described in "Description of
the Certificates--Assumed Final Distribution Date; Rated Final
Distribution Date" herein.
(3) The Rated Final Distribution Date is the first Distribution Date after
the 24th month following the end of the amortization term of the
Mortgage Loan, that, as of the Cut-off Date, has the longest remaining
amortization term.
(4) The Class P Certificates will not have a Pass-Through Rate and holders
thereof will not be entitled to distributions of interest.
(5) The Pass-Through Rate on the Class X Certificates will be equal to the
excess, if any, of (i) the weighted average of the Net Mortgage Rates
of the Mortgage Loans, over (ii) the weighted average of the
Pass-Through Rates of the other Certificates (other than the Residual
Certificates) as described herein.
The Certificates will represent in the aggregate the entire beneficial
ownership interest in a trust fund (the "Trust Fund") to be established by
the Depositor, that will consist primarily of a segregated pool (the
"Mortgage Pool") of multifamily and commercial, fixed-rate, balloon mortgage
loans (the "Mortgage Loans"). Chemical Bank and Bear, Stearns Funding Inc.
originated or acquired the Mortgage Loans. As of July 1, 1996 (the "Cut-off
Date"), the Mortgage Loans are expected to have an aggregate principal
balance of approximately $443,159,377 (the "Initial Pool Balance"), after
application of all payments of principal due on or before such date, whether
or not received. Certain anticipated characteristics of the Mortgage Loans
are described herein under "Description of the Mortgage Pool." The rights of
the holders of the Subordinate Certificates to receive distributions with
respect to the Mortgage Loans will be subordinate to the rights of the
holders of the Senior Certificates, and the rights of the holders of certain
Classes of Subordinate Certificates to receive distributions with respect to
the Mortgage Loans will be subordinate to the rights of the holders of other
Classes of Subordinate Certificates, in each case to the extent described
herein and in the Prospectus.
It is a condition of their issuance that each Class of the Class A
Certificates be rated not lower than "AAA," the Class B Certificates be rated
not lower than "AA," the Class C Certificates be rated not lower than "A,"
the Class D Certificates be rated not lower than "BBB" and the Class E
Certificates be rated not lower than "BBB-" by Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services ("S&P") and by Fitch Investors Service, L.P. ("Fitch"). It is a
condition of their issuance that the Class X Certificates be rated not lower
than "AAA" by Fitch and the Class P Certificates be rated not lower than
"AAAr" by S&P. See "Rating" herein.
There is currently no secondary market for the Offered Certificates. The
Underwriters intend to make a secondary market in the Offered Certificates,
but are not obligated to do so. There can be no assurance that a secondary
market for the Offered Certificates will develop or, if it does develop, that
it will continue. The Offered Certificates will not be listed on any
securities exchange.
If and to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, this
Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus will be used by Chase Securities
Inc. in connection with offers and sales related to market-making
transactions in the Offered Certificates with respect to which Chase
Securities Inc. is a principal. Chase Securities Inc. may also act as agent
in such transactions. Such sales will be made at negotiated prices determined
at the time of sale.
The Offered Certificates will be represented initially by certificates
registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC. The interests of the
beneficial owners of the Offered Certificates will be represented by book
entries on the records of participating members of DTC. Definitive
certificates will be available for the Offered Certificates only under the
limited circumstances described herein and in the Prospectus. See
"Description of the Certificates--Book-Entry Registration and Definitive
Certificates" herein and in the Prospectus.
An election will be made to treat the segregated pool of assets comprising
the Trust as a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" (a "REMIC") for
federal income tax purposes. As described more fully herein and in the
Prospectus, the Certificates other than the Residual Certificates will be
designated as "regular interests" in the REMIC, and the Class R Certificates
will be designated as the "residual interests" in the REMIC. See "Certain
Federal Income Tax Consequences" herein and in the Prospectus.
S-3
<PAGE>
Distributions on the Certificates will be made, to the extent of
available funds, on the 18th day of each month or, if any such day is not a
business day, then on the next business day, beginning in August 1996 (each,
a "Distribution Date"). As described herein, interest distributions on each
Class of Offered Certificates (other than the Class P Certificates) will be
made on each Distribution Date based on the pass-through rate (the
"Pass-Through Rate") applicable to such Class, as set forth on the cover of
this Prospectus Supplement, and the stated principal amount (the "Certificate
Balance") or notional amount (the "Notional Amount"), as the case may be, of
such Class outstanding immediately prior to such Distribution Date. Interest
will accrue on the Offered Certificates (other than the Class P Certificates)
from the first day of the month preceding the month in which the related
Distribution Date occurs through the last day of such month (each such
period, an "Interest Accrual Period"). Distributions of interest, except with
respect to the Class P Certificates, and distributions of principal, except
with respect to the Class X Certificates, on each Class of Offered
Certificates will be made in the amounts and in accordance with the
priorities described herein. The Class P Certificates will not have a
Pass-Through Rate or entitle their holders to distributions of interest. The
Class X Certificates will not have Certificate Balances or entitle their
holders to distributions of principal. The Class X Certificates will bear
interest on the Notional Amount outstanding from time to time. 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.
See "Yield and Maturity Considerations" herein and "Yield and Maturity
Considerations" and "Risk Factors--Prepayments; Average Life of Certificates;
Yields" in the Prospectus. THE YIELD TO MATURITY ON THE CLASS X CERTIFICATES
WILL BE EXTREMELY SENSITIVE TO THE RATE AND TIMING OF PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS
(INCLUDING PREPAYMENTS), PRINCIPAL LOSSES AND INTEREST RATE DECREASES DUE TO
MODIFICATIONS ON THE MORTGAGE LOANS AND TO OTHER FACTORS SET FORTH HEREIN.
INVESTORS SHOULD FULLY CONSIDER THE ASSOCIATED RISKS, INCLUDING THE RISK THAT
A RAPID RATE OF PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS AND/OR PRINCIPAL LOSSES ON THE MORTGAGE
POOL COULD RESULT IN THE FAILURE BY INVESTORS IN THE CLASS X CERTIFICATES TO
FULLY RECOUP THEIR INITIAL INVESTMENTS. SEE "YIELD AND MATURITY
CONSIDERATIONS--YIELD SENSITIVITY OF THE CLASS X CERTIFICATES" HEREIN. THE
YIELD TO MATURITY ON THE CLASS P CERTIFICATES WILL BE SENSITIVE TO THE RATE
AND TIMING OF PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS ON THE DISCOUNT MORTGAGE LOANS AND TO OTHER
FACTORS SET FORTH HEREIN. SEE "--YIELD SENSITIVITY OF THE CLASS P
CERTIFICATES" HEREIN.
THE CERTIFICATES OFFERED BY THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT CONSTITUTE PART OF
A SEPARATE SERIES OF CERTIFICATES ISSUED BY THE DEPOSITOR AND ARE BEING
OFFERED PURSUANT TO ITS PROSPECTUS DATED MAY 28, 1996, OF WHICH THIS
PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT IS A PART AND WHICH ACCOMPANIES THIS PROSPECTUS

circumstances described herein and in
the Prospectus. See "Description of the
Certificates--Book-Entry Registration and
Definitive Certificates" herein and in the
Prospectus.
THE MORTGAGE POOL ...... The Mortgage Pool will consist of 39
multifamily and 48 commercial, fixed-rate
Mortgage Loans with an Initial Pool Balance
of approximately $443,159,377. On or prior
to the Closing Date, the Depositor will
acquire the Mortgage Loans from the Mortgage
Loan Sellers pursuant to two Mortgage Loan
Purchase and Sale Agreements, each dated as
of July 1, 1996, each between the Depositor
and the related Mortgage Loan Seller (each,
a "Purchase Agreement").
Each Mortgage Loan is secured by one or more
first priority liens on a fee simple estate
(or in the case of 3 of the Mortgaged
S-8
<PAGE>
Properties, the fee simple estate and a
leasehold estate in the related Mortgaged
Property or a portion thereof) in a
multifamily or commercial property (each, a
"Mortgaged Property"). Set forth below are
the number of Mortgaged Properties and the
approximate percentage of the Initial
Pool Balance represented by such Mortgaged
Properties (based upon allocated loan
amount) that are secured by Mortgaged
Properties operated for each indicated
purpose:

(1) With respect to 5 of the 8 Mortgage
Loans secured by multiple Mortgaged
Properties, the related loan amount is
allocated under the terms of the related
mortgage loan documents, which allocations
were made taking into account the
appraised value and Underwritten Net Cash
Flow of each Mortgaged Property. With
respect to the 3 remaining multi-property
Mortgage Loans, the related loan amount
is allocated based upon the appraised
value of each Mortgaged Property.
See "Risk Factors" and "Description of the
Mortgage Pool--Additional Mortgage Loan
Information" herein.
The Mortgaged Properties are located
throughout 23 states. Set forth below are
the number of Mortgaged Properties, and the
approximate percentage of the Initial Pool
Balance represented by such Mortgaged
Properties (based upon allocated loan
amount) located in the 7 states with

Properties, the related loan amount is
allocated under the terms of the related
mortgage loan documents, which allocations
were made taking into account the
appraised value and Underwritten Net Cash
Flow of each Mortgaged Property. With
respect to the 3 remaining multi-property
Mortgage Loans, the related loan amount
is allocated based upon the appraised
value of each Mortgaged Property.
S-9
<PAGE>
Substantially all of the Mortgage Loans
provide for scheduled payments of principal
and/or interest ("Monthly Payments") to be
due on the first day of each month (the
"Due Date"). All of the Mortgage Loans bear
interest at fixed Mortgage Rates. See
"Description of the Mortgage Pool--Certain
Terms and Conditions of the Mortgage Loans"
herein.
83 of the Mortgage Loans (representing
98.70% of the Initial Pool Balance) provide
for monthly payments of principal based on
amortization schedules significantly longer
than the remaining terms of such Mortgage
Loans, thereby leaving substantial principal
amounts due and payable (each such payment,
together with the corresponding interest
payment, a "Balloon Payment") on their
respective maturity dates, unless prepaid
prior thereto. 1 Mortgage Loan (Loan ID No.
9 on Exhibit A hereto), representing
approximately 2.41% of the Initial Pool
Balance, provides that if it is not paid in
full at its anticipated payment date (which
is prior to its stated maturity), all
available cash is applied to principal and
interest (including an additional 2% per
annum in interest) until the Mortgage Loan
is retired. All calculations involving the
maturity date of this Mortgage Loan are
based on the anticipated repayment date.
DISCOUNT MORTGAGE LOANS
........................ 6 of the Mortgage Loans, with an aggregate
Cut-off Date Balance of approximately
$34,020,180, have Net Mortgage Rates below
7.600% (each, a "Discount Mortgage Loan").
INFORMATION AVAILABLE TO
CERTIFICATEHOLDERS .... On each Distribution Date, the Paying Agent
will prepare and forward by mail to each
holder of an Offered Certificate, with a
copy to a financial market publisher, which
shall initially be Bloomberg, L.P., a
statement as to the distribution made on
such date setting forth the amounts
distributed to the holders of the Offered
Certificates. In addition, subject to the
limitations set forth in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, the Paying Agent will
provide to each Certificateholder, the
Underwriters, any Certificate Owner or any
prospective investor identified as such by a
Certificate Owner or an Underwriter, upon
request (at the cost of the requesting
party) the following items: (i) all monthly
statements delivered to holders of Offered
Certificates since the Closing Date, (ii)
all officer's certificates delivered to the
Paying Agent since the Closing Date as
described under "Description of the Pooling
Agreements--Evidence as to Compliance" in
the Prospectus, (iii) all accountants'
reports delivered to the Paying Agent since
the Closing Date as described under
"Description of the Pooling
Agreements--Evidence as to Compliance" in
the Prospectus, (iv) the most recent
property inspection report prepared by or on
behalf of the Servicer or the Special
Servicer and delivered to the Paying Agent
in respect of each Mortgaged Property, (v)
any modifications, waivers and amendments of
the terms of any Mortgage Loan, (vi) any and
all statements and reports delivered to, or
collected by, the
S-10
<PAGE>
Servicer or the Special Servicer, from the
borrowers, including the most recent annual
property operating statements, rent rolls
and borrower financial statements, to the
extent such statements and reports have been
delivered to the Paying Agent and the Paying
Agent does not reasonably determine that
such information is subject to
confidentiality requirements or that the
provision of such information would subject
the Paying Agent, the Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust Fund to
any liability, and (vii) certain other
reports and information regarding the
Mortgage Loans in the Paying Agent's
possession. See "Description of the
Certificates--Reports to Certificateholders;
Certain Available Information" herein.
The Servicer will provide a financial market
publisher, which initially shall be
Bloomberg, L.P., quarterly with certain
current information with respect to the
Mortgaged Properties including current and
original net operating income, and debt
service coverage ratios based upon
borrowers' annual operating statements and
occupancy rates, to the extent it has
received such information from the borrowers
pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan
documents.
DESCRIPTION OF THE
CERTIFICATES ........... The Certificates will be issued pursuant to
a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to be
dated as of the Cut-off Date, among the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Trustee and the Fiscal Agent
(the "Pooling and Servicing Agreemen"), and
will represent in the aggregate the entire
beneficial ownership interest in the Trust
Fund, which will consist of the Mortgage Pool
and certain related assets.
The aggregate Certificate Balance of the
Certificates as of the Closing Date will
equal the Initial Pool Balance. Each Class
of Offered Certificates will have the initial
Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, as
the case may be, set forth on the cover
page, subject to a permitted variance of
plus or minus 5%. The Class X Certificates
will not have a Certificate Balance or
entitle their holders to distributions
of principal. The Class X Certificates
will, however, represent the right to
receive distributions of interest
accrued as described herein on a notional
amount (the "Notional Amount"). The
Notional Amount of the Class X Certificates
for any Distribution Date is equal to the
aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loans as of the preceding
Distribution Date (after giving effect to
the distribution of principal on such
Distribution Date) or, in the case of the
first Distribution Date, the Cut-off Date.
The Notional Amount of the Class X
Certificates is used solely for purposes of
describing the amounts of interest payable
on the Class X Certificates and does not
represent an interest in principal payments
on the Mortgage Loans. The Class F, Class G
and Class H Certificates will have an
aggregate initial Certificate Balance of
approximately $53,179,125. The Class R
Certificates will have a Certificate Balance
of zero. The Class F, Class G, Class H and
Class R Certificates are referred to herein
collec-
S-11
<PAGE>
tively as the "Non-Offered Certificates" See
"Description of the Certificates--General"
herein.
The Pass-Through Rate applicable to each Class
of Offered Certificates (other than the Class
P Certificates) for each Distribution
Date will equal the rate for such Class set
forth on the cover page. The Class P
Certificates will not have a Pass-Through
Rate or entitle their holders to distributions
of interest. See "Description of the
Certificates--Distributions--Pass-Through
Rates" and "--Distributions--Certain
Calculations with Respect to Individual
Mortgage Loans" herein.
DISTRIBUTIONS OF
PRINCIPAL AND
INTEREST .............. Available Distribution Amount. The "
Available Distribution Amount" for any
Distribution Date is, as described herein
under "Description of the Certificates--
Distributions," generally, the total of all
payments or other collections (or available
advances) on or in respect of the Mortgage
Loans that are available for distribution on
the Certificates on such date.
Interest Distributions. On each Distribution
Date, to the extent of the Available
Distribution Amount and subject to the
distribution priorities described herein,
holders of each Class of Offered
Certificates (other than the Class P
Certificates) will be entitled to receive
distributions of interest in an amount equal
to all Distributable Certificate Interest
with respect to such Certificates for such
Distribution Date and, to the extent not
previously paid, for all prior Distribution
Dates (such amount, for such class, the "
Interest Distribution Amount"). No interest
will accrue on such overdue amounts. See
"Description of the Certificates--
Distributions" herein.
The "Distributable Certificate Interest" in
respect of any Class of Certificates (other
than the Class P and Class R Certificates)
for any Distribution Date will equal one
month's interest at the then-applicable
Pass-Through Rate accrued on the Certificate
Balance or Notional Amount, as the case may be,
of such Class of Certificates immediately
prior to such Distribution Date. Interest will
accrue with respect to the Certificates on the
basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve
30-day months. See "Description of the
Certificates--Distributions--Interest
Distribution Amount" herein.
Principal Distributions. On each
Distribution Date, to the extent of the
Available Distribution Amount remaining
after the distributions of interest to be
made on the Offered Certificates (other than
the Class P Certificates) on such date and
subject to the distribution priorities
described herein, holders of each Class of
Offered Certificates (other than the Class X
and Class P Certificates) will be entitled
to distributions of principal (until the
Certificate Balance of such Class of
Certificates is reduced to zero) in an
aggregate amount equal to the Principal
Distribution Amount (less the Class P
Distribution Amount) for such Distribution
Date. See "Description of the Certificates--
S-12
<PAGE>
Distributions--Principal Distribution
Amount" herein.
On each Distribution Date, to the extent of
the Available Distribution Amount remaining
after the distributions of interest to be
made on such date to the holders of the
Class A and Class X Certificates, holders of
the Class P Certificates will be entitled to
distributions of principal (until the
Certificate Balance of such Class of
Certificates is reduced to zero) in an
aggregate amount equal to the Class P
Principal Distribution Amount for such
Distribution Date. See "Description of the
Certificates--Distributions--Principal
Distribution Amount" herein.
Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance
Charges. On each Distribution Date, any
Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance
Charges collected on the Mortgage Loans
during the related Due Period will be
distributed separately from the Available
Distribution Amount for such Distribution
Date, as follows: (a) all Yield Maintenance
Charges will be distributed to the Class X
Certificates and to the Class A, Class B,
Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates in
the manner and priority described herein
under "Description of the Certificates--
Allocation of Prepayment Premiums and Yield
Maintenance Charges"; and (b) (i) 75% of all
Prepayment Premiums will be distributed to
the holders of the Class X Certificates, and
(ii) the remaining 25% of all Prepayment
Premiums will be distributed to the holders
of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D,
Class E and Class X Certificates in the
manner and priority described herein under
"Description of the Certificates--Allocation
of Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance
Charges."
CERTAIN YIELD AND
PREPAYMENT
CONSIDERATIONS ........ In General. The yield on the Offered
Certificates of any Class (other than the
Class P Certificates) will depend on, among
other things, the Pass-Through Rate for such
Certificates. The yield on any Offered
Certificate that is purchased at a discount
or premium will also be affected by the rate
and timing of distributions in respect of
principal on such Certificate, which in turn
will be affected by (i) the rate and timing
of principal payments (including principal
prepayments) and principal losses on the
Mortgage Loans and (ii) the extent to which
such principal payments are applied on any
Distribution Date in reduction of the
Certificate Balance of the Class to which
such Certificate belongs. See "Description
of the Certificates Distributions--Priority"
and "--Distributions--Scheduled Principal
Distribution Amount and Unscheduled
Principal Distribution Amount" herein.
An investor that purchases an Offered
Certificate at a discount, particularly a
Class P Certificate, should consider the
risk that a slower than anticipated rate of
principal payments on such Certificate will
result in an actual yield that is lower than
such investor's expected yield. An investor
that purchases any Of-
S-13
<PAGE>
fered Certificate at a premium, particularly
a Class X Certificate, should consider the
risk that a faster than anticipated rate of
principal payments on such Certificate will
result in an actual yield that is lower than
such investor's expected yield. Insofar as
an investor's initial investment in any
Offered Certificate is repaid, there can be
no assurance that such amounts can be
reinvested in a comparable alternative
investment with a comparable yield.
The actual rate of prepayment of principal
on the Mortgage Loans cannot be predicted.
78 of the Mortgage Loans, representing
approximately 93.28% of the Initial Pool
Balance, may not be prepaid prior to six
months before their stated maturity without
Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance
Charge. See the table entitled "Prepayment
Restrictions in Effect as of the Cut-off
Date" set forth in "Description of the
Mortgage Pool" herein. The investment
performance of the Offered Certificates may
vary materially and adversely from the
investment expectations of investors due to
prepayments on the Mortgage Loans being
higher or lower than anticipated by
investors. The actual yield to the holder of
an Offered Certificate may not be equal to
the yield anticipated at the time of
purchase of the Certificate, and even if the
actual yield is equal to the yield
anticipated at that time, the total return
on investment expected by the investor or
the expected weighted average life of the
Certificate may not be realized.
THE YIELD TO MATURITY ON THE CLASS X
CERTIFICATES WILL BE EXTREMELY SENSITIVE TO
THE RATE AND TIMING OF PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS
(INCLUDING PREPAYMENTS), PRINCIPAL LOSSES
AND INTEREST RATE DECREASES DUE TO
MODIFICATIONS ON THE MORTGAGE LOANS AND TO
OTHER FACTORS SET FORTH HEREIN. INVESTORS
SHOULD FULLY CONSIDER THE ASSOCIATED RISKS,
INCLUDING THE RISK THAT A RAPID RATE OF
PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS AND/OR PRINCIPAL LOSSES
ON THE MORTGAGE POOL COULD RESULT IN THE
FAILURE BY INVESTORS IN THE CLASS X
CERTIFICATES TO FULLY RECOUP THEIR INITIAL
INVESTMENTS. SEE "YIELD AND MATURITY
CONSIDERATIONS--YIELD SENSITIVITY OF THE
CLASS X CERTIFICATES" HEREIN.
THE YIELD TO MATURITY ON THE CLASS P
CERTIFICATES WILL BE SENSITIVE TO THE RATE
AND TIMING OF PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS ON THE
DISCOUNT MORTGAGE LOANS AND TO OTHER FACTORS
SET FORTH HEREIN. SEE "YIELD AND MATURITY
CONSIDERATIONS--YIELD SENSITIVITY OF THE
CLASS P CERTIFICATES" HEREIN.
For a discussion of certain factors
affecting prepayment of the Mortgage Loans,
see "Yield and Maturity Considerations"
herein. IN DECIDING WHETHER TO PURCHASE ANY
OFFERED CERTIFICATES, AN INVESTOR SHOULD
MAKE AN INDEPENDENT DECISION AS TO THE
APPROPRIATE PREPAYMENT ASSUMPTIONS TO BE
USED.
The structure of the Offered Certificates
causes the yield of certain Classes to be
particularly sensitive to changes in the
rates of prepayment of the Mortgage Loans
and other factors. Allocation on each
Distribution Date to the outstanding Class
S-14
<PAGE>
or Classes of Certificates having the
highest priority with respect to
distributions of principal, for so long as
such Class remains outstanding, of the
entire Principal Distribution Amount for
such Distribution Date will generally cause
such Certificates to amortize at a faster
rate than the actual amortization rate of
the Mortgage Loans.
ADVANCES ............... The Servicer will be required to make
advances of delinquent principal and
interest on the Mortgage Loans or, in the
case of each Mortgage Loan that is
delinquent in respect of its Balloon
Payment, an Assumed Scheduled Payment ("P&I
Advances"), in any event under the
circumstances and subject to the limitations
set forth herein. Subject to the limitations
set forth herein, the Servicer will also be
required to make advances to pay delinquent
real estate taxes, assessments and hazard
insurance premiums and similar expenses
necessary to protect and maintain the Mortgaged
Property, to maintain the lien on the Mortgaged
Property or enforce the related Mortgage
Loan documents ("Servicing Advances," and
collectively with P&I Advances, "Advances"
Advances). In the event the Servicer fails to
make any required Advance, the Trustee or the
Fiscal Agent will be required to make such
Advance in accordance with the terms of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
Advances are intended to maintain a regular
flow of scheduled interest and principal
payments to the Certificateholders and are
not intended to guarantee or insure against
losses. Advances which cannot be reimbursed
out of collections on, or in respect of, the
related Mortgage Loans ("Nonrecoverable
Advances") will be reimbursable directly from
any other collections on the Mortgage Loans as
provided herein and this will cause losses
to be borne by Certificateholders in the
priority specified herein.
The Servicer, the Trustee and the Fiscal
Agent, as the case may be, will be entitled
to interest on any Advances made, such
interest accruing at the rate and payable
under the circumstances described herein.
Interest accrued on outstanding Advances may
result in reductions in amounts otherwise
payable on the Certificates. See
"Description of the Certificates--Advances"
and "--Subordination; Allocation of
Collateral Support Deficit" herein and
"Description of the Certificates--Advances
in Respect of Delinquencies" and
"Description of the Pooling
Agreements--Certificate Account" in the
Prospectus.
SUBORDINATION;
ALLOCATION
OF COLLATERAL SUPPORT
DEFICIT ............... Credit enhancement for the Offered
Certificates will be provided by the Classes
of Certificates which are subordinate to
such Offered Certificates (including, except
in the case of the Class E Certificates,
subordination provided by other Classes of
Offered Certificates to the extent provided
herein) with respect to (i) except with
respect to the Class P Certificates, rights
to receive certain distributions of interest
and, except with respect to the Class X
Certificates, rights to receive certain
distributions
S-15
<PAGE>
of principal and (ii) the allocation of
Collateral Support Deficit. Such
subordination will be accomplished by the
application of the Available Distribution
Amount on each Distribution Date to
distributions on the respective Classes of
Certificates in the order described herein
under "Description of the Certificates--
Distributions--Priority." No other form of
credit support will be available for the
benefit of the holders of the Offered
Certificates.
Allocation on each Distribution Date to the
outstanding Class of Certificates (other
than the Class X Certificates) having the
highest priority (relative to the other
outstanding Classes of Certificates) with
respect to distributions of principal, for
so long as such Class remains outstanding,
of the Principal Distribution Amount for
such Distribution Date will generally
accelerate the amortization of the
Certificates of such Class relative to the
actual amortization of the Mortgage Loans.
To the extent that such Certificates are
amortized faster than the Mortgage Loans,
the percentage interest evidenced by such
Class of Certificates in the Trust Fund will
be decreased (with a corresponding increase
in the interest in the Trust Fund evidenced
by the remaining Classes of Certificates),
thereby increasing, relative to their
respective Certificate Balances, the
subordination afforded such Certificates by
such remaining Classes of Certificates.
As a result of losses and other shortfalls
experienced with respect to the Mortgage
Loans or otherwise with respect to the Trust
Fund (which may include, but are not limited
to, shortfalls arising from the payment of
interest accrued on Advances and
Nonrecoverable Advances and from expenses of
the Trust Fund not directly related to any
Mortgage Loan), the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool
expected to be outstanding immediately
following any Distribution Date may be less
than the aggregate Certificate Balance of
the Certificates immediately following the
distributions on such Distribution Date.
Such deficit (the "Collateral Support
Deficit") will be allocated (in reduction of
their respective Certificate Balances)
first to the Class H Certificates, then to
the Class G Certificates, then to the Class
F Certificates, then to the Class E
Certificates, then to the Class D
Certificates, then to the Class C
Certificates, and then to the Class B
Certificates, in each case until the related
Certificate Balance has been reduced to
zero. Following the reduction of the
Certificate Balances of all such Classes of
Certificates to zero, Collateral Support
Deficit will be allocated, pro rata, to the
Class A-l, Class A-2 and Class P
Certificates until the Certificate Balances
of such Classes have been reduced to zero.
See "Description of the Certificates--
Subordination; Allocation of Collateral
Support Deficit" herein.
A Class of Offered Certificates will be
considered outstanding until its Certificate
Balance or Notional Amount, as the case may
be, is reduced to zero; provided, however,
that reimburse-
S-16
<PAGE>
ment of any previously allocated Collateral
Support Deficit may thereafter be made to
such Class.
OPTIONAL TERMINATION ... At its option, on any Distribution Date on
which the remaining aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool is
less than 4% of the Initial Pool Balance,
the Special Servicer, the Servicer or the
holder of the Class R Certificates (in that
order) may purchase all, but not less than
all, of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties in the Trust Fund, and thereby
effect termination of the Trust Fund and
early retirement of the then outstanding
Certificates. See "Description of the
Certificates--Termination; Retirement of
the Certificates" herein and "Description of
the Certificates--Termination" in the
Prospectus.
CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME
TAX CONSEQUENCES ...... For federal income tax purposes, an election
will be made to treat the segregated pool of
assets comprising the Trust as a real estate
mortgage investment conduit (a "REMIC").
All of the Classes of Offered Certificates
and the Class F, Class G and Class H
Certificates will be designated as regular
interests in the REMIC. The Class R
Certificates will be designated as residual
interests in the REMIC.
Because they represent regular interests,
each Class of Offered Certificates generally
will be treated as newly originated debt
instruments issued by the REMIC for federal
income tax purposes. Holders of such Classes
of Certificates will be required to include
in income all interest on such Certificates
in accordance with the accrual method of
accounting, regardless of a
Certificateholder's usual method of
accounting. The Class P Certificates will be
issued with original issue discount ("OID")
for federal income tax purposes in an amount
equal to the excess of their initial
Certificate Balance over their issue price.
Although not free from doubt, it is
anticipated that the Class X Certificates
will be issued with OID in an amount equal
to the excess of all distributions of
interest expected to be received thereon
over their issue price (including accrued
interest). It is also anticipated that the
Class D and Class E Certificates will be
issued with OID in an amount equal to the
excess of their initial Certificate Balances
(plus 12 days of interest at the Pass-
Through Rates thereon) over their respective
issue prices (including accrued interest).
In addition, it is expected that the Class
A-1, Class A-2 and Class B Certificates will
be issued at a premium and that the Class C
Certificates will be issued with de minimis
OID for federal income tax purposes. The
prepayment assumption that will be used in
determining the rate of accrual of OID for
federal income tax purposes or whether such
OID is de minimis, and that may be used to
amortize premium, is 0% CPR. NO
REPRESENTATION IS MADE THAT THE MORTGAGE
LOANS WILL PREPAY AT THAT OR ANY OTHER RATE.
For further information regarding the
federal income tax consequences of investing
in the Offered Certificates, see
S-17
<PAGE>
"Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences"
herein and in the Prospectus.
RATING ................. It is a condition of the issuance of the
Offered Certificates that they receive the
following credit ratings from Fitch Investor
Services, L.P. ("Fitch") and Standard & Poor's
Ratings Services ("S&P"):
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
FITCH S&P
--------- --------
<S> <C> <C>
Class A-l ....... AAA AAA
Class A-2 . ..... AAA AAA
Class P . ....... * AAAr
Class X ......... AAA **
Class B ......... AA AA
Class C ......... A A
Class D ......... BBB BBB
Class E ......... BBB- BBB-
</TABLE>
- - ---------------
* Not rated by Fitch.
** Not rated by S&P.
A rating addresses the likelihood of the
receipt by Certificateholders of
distributions due on the Certificates,
including in the case of the Class A, Class
P, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E
Certificates, distribution of all principal
thereof by the Rated Final Distribution
Date. The rating takes into consideration
the characteristics of the Mortgage Loans
and the structural and legal aspects
associated with the Certificates. S&P
assigns the additional rating of "r" to
highlight classes of securities that S&P
believes may experience high volatility or
high variability in expected returns due to
non-credit risks. Each rating assigned to
the Offered Certificates should be evaluated
independently of any other rating.
A 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. In addition, a
rating does not address the likelihood or
frequency of voluntary or mandatory
prepayments of Mortgage Loans, payments of
Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance
Charges or the corresponding effect on yield
to investors. Fitch's rating on the Class X
Certificates does not address the
possibility that Certificateholders might
suffer a lower than anticipated yield or
that if there is a rapid rate of principal
payments (including voluntary and
involuntary prepayments) or principal losses
on the Mortgage Loans, investors in such
Class of Certificates could fail to recover
their initial investment. See "Rating"
herein and "Risk Factors--Limited Nature of
Ratings" in the Prospectus.
ERISA CONSIDERATIONS ... Fiduciaries of employee benefit plans and
certain other retirement plans and
arrangements, including individual
retirement accounts, annuities, Keogh plans,
and collective investment funds and separate
accounts in which such plans, accounts,
annuities or arrangements are invested, that
are subject to the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
("ERISA"), or Section 4975 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as
S-18
<PAGE>
amended (the "Code"), should review with their
legal advisors whether the purchase or holding
of Offered Certificates could give rise to a
transaction that is prohibited or is not
otherwise permissible either under ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code. See "ERISA
Considerations" herein and in the
Prospectus.
The U.S. Department of Labor has issued to
Chase Securities Inc., Bear, Stearns & Co.
Inc., and PaineWebber Incorporated
(collectively, the "Underwriters")
individual prohibited transaction
exemptions, PTE 90-33, 55 Fed. Reg. 23,151
(June 6, 1990); PTE 90-30, 55 Fed. Reg.
21,461 (May 24, 1990); and PTE 90-36, 55
Fed. Reg. 25,903 (June 25, 1990),
respectively (collectively, the "Exemptions")
which generally exempt from the application
of certain of the prohibited transaction
provisions of Section 406 of ERISA and the
excise taxes imposed on such prohibited
transactions by Sections 4975(a) and (b) of
the Code, transactions relating to the
purchase, sale and holding of pass-through
certificates underwritten by the
Underwriters and the servicing and operation
of related asset pools, provided that
certain conditions are satisfied.
The Depositor expects that the Exemptions
will generally apply to the Senior
Certificates, but they will not apply to the
other Classes of Offered Certificates.
ACCORDINGLY, THE SUBORDINATE OFFERED
CERTIFICATES SHOULD NOT BE ACQUIRED BY, ON
BEHALF OF OR WITH ASSETS OF A PLAN, UNLESS
THE PURCHASE AND HOLDING OF SUCH CERTIFICATE
OR INTEREST THEREIN IS EXEMPT FROM THE
PROHIBITED TRANSACTION PROVISIONS OF SECTION
406 OF ERISA AND THE RELATED EXCISE TAX
PROVISIONS OF SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE UNDER
PROHIBITED TRANSACTION CLASS EXEMPTION
95-60, WHICH PROVIDES AN EXEMPTION FROM THE
PROHIBITED TRANSACTION RULES FOR CERTAIN
TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING AN INSURANCE COMPANY
GENERAL ACCOUNT. See "ERISA Considerations"
herein and in the Prospectus.
LEGAL INVESTMENT ....... None of the Offered Certificates will be
"mortgage related securities" within the
meaning of SMMEA. As a result, the
appropriate characterization of the Offered
Certificates under various legal investment
restrictions, and thus the ability of
investors subject to these restrictions to
purchase the Offered Certificates, may be
subject to significant interpretative
uncertainties.
Investors should consult their legal
advisors to determine whether and to what
extent the Offered Certificates constitute
legal investments for them. See "Legal
Investment" herein and in the Prospectus.
[/TABLE]
S-19
<PAGE>
RISK FACTORS
Prospective purchasers of Offered Certificates 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.
Exposure of the Mortgage Pool to Adverse Economic or other Developments
Based on Geographic Concentration. 14 Mortgage Loans, which represent
approximately 17.68% of the Initial Pool Balance, are secured by liens on
Mortgaged Properties located in the State of New York. Other jurisdictions
also represent significant percentages of the Initial Pool Balance, as set
forth in the tables under "Description of the Mortgage Pool--Additional
Mortgage Loan Information." In general, such concentration increases the
exposure of the Mortgage Pool to any adverse economic or other developments
that may occur in New York and such other jurisdictions.
Increased Risk of Loss Associated With Concentration of Mortgage Loans,
Management and Borrowers. Several of the Mortgage Loans have Cut-off Date
Balances that are substantially higher than the average Cut-off Date Balance
of the Mortgage Loans. The largest Mortgage Loan is secured by 9 Mortgaged
Properties and has a Cut-off Date Balance of $19,862,588, representing
approximately 4.48% of the Initial Pool Balance. The largest Mortgage Loan
secured by a single Mortgaged Property has a Cut-off Date Balance of
$13,153,979, representing approximately 2.97% of the Initial Pool Balance. In
general, concentrations of larger-than-average balances in a mortgage pool
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.
Certain of the Mortgage Loans have been made to borrowers that are related
to each other by ownership and property management. 3 Mortgage Loans (Loan ID
Nos. 1, 13 and 26 on Exhibit A hereto) (secured in the aggregate by 15
Mortgaged Properties) have borrowers whose general partners may become,
pursuant to certain options, affiliated entities and such Mortgage Loans
represent, in the aggregate, approximately 8.11% of the Initial Pool Balance.
8 other Mortgage Loans (Loan ID Nos. 4, 31, 69, 77, 80, 81, 82 and 87 on
Exhibit A hereto) (secured in the aggregate by 8 Mortgaged Properties) have
borrowers related to each other and such Mortgage Loans represent, in the
aggregate, approximately 5.95% of the Initial Pool Balance. 6 other Mortgage
Loans (Loan ID Nos. 17, 37, 48, 49, 70 and 75 on Exhibit A hereto) (secured
in the aggregate by 6 Mortgaged Properties) have borrowers related to each
other and such Mortgage Loans represent, in the aggregate, approximately
5.49% of the Initial Pool Balance. 3 other groups of Mortgage Loans have
borrowers related to each other, each such group of Mortgage Loans
representing less than 5.00% of the Initial Pool Balance. None of the
Mortgage Loans in any of these Mortgage Loan groups are cross-collateralized
or cross-defaulted with each other or with other mortgage loans. However, 8
Mortgage Loans, representing approximately 15.18% of the Initial Pool
Balance, are secured by more than one Mortgaged Property.
Concentration of borrowers in a mortgage pool can also pose increased
risks. Mortgaged properties that are owned by a group of related borrowers
are likely to have common management. If a mortgage pool has a concentration
of mortgage loans secured by properties owned by a group of related borrowers
having common property management, financial or other difficulties
experienced by the property manager would have a greater impact on the
mortgage pool than would be the case if the properties did not have common
management. In addition, a financial failure or bankruptcy filing involving
an affiliate of a group of affiliated borrowers, such as a common general
partner or the owner of a common general partner, would have a greater impact
on the Mortgage Pool than a financial failure or bankruptcy filing involving
only one borrower. Nonetheless, the filing of a bankruptcy petition should
not invalidate the first lien position held by the Trustee on the related
Mortgaged Property, and the Servicer is required to make Advances through
liquidation unless the Servicer determines that such Advances will not be
recoverable. See "Description of the Certificates--Advances" herein. In
addition, in the case of affiliated borrowers, the terms of the Mortgage
Loans generally require that the borrowers be single-purpose entities and, in
some cases, the borrowers' organizational documents limit their activities to
the ownership of only the related Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties
and limit the borrowers' ability to incur additional indebtedness. However,
certain of the borrowers are not required to observe certain covenants and
S-20
<PAGE>
conditions which typically are required in order for such borrowers to be
viewed under standard rating agency criteria as "special purpose entities."
Further, there can be no assurance that such borrowers will comply with such
requirements. See "Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage Loans--Bankruptcy Laws"
in the Prospectus.
Increased Risk of Default Associated with Balloon Payments. Only 4 of the
Mortgage Loans, representing approximately 1.30% of the Initial Pool Balance,
are mortgage loans that fully amortize over their remaining term to maturity.
The remaining Mortgage Loans, representing approximately 98.70% of the
Initial Pool Balance, do not fully amortize over their respective terms to
maturity. Thus, substantially all of the Mortgage Loans will have substantial
payments (that is, Balloon Payments) due at their stated maturity unless
prepaid prior thereto. Loans with Balloon Payments involve a greater risk of
default than self-amortizing loans 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. See "Risk
Factors--Balloon Payments; Borrower Default" in the Prospectus.
Extension Risk Associated With Modification of Mortgage Loans with Balloon
Payments. In order to maximize recoveries on defaulted Mortgage Loans, the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement enables 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 reasonably
foreseeable; subject, however, to the 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 by the
Special Servicer or the Servicer, will likely extend the weighted average
life of such Class of Offered Certificates. See "Yield and Maturity
Considerations" herein and in the Prospectus.
Risks Particular to Commercial Properties. Income from and the market
value of the Mortgaged Properties which are retail or office properties would
be adversely affected if space in such Mortgaged Properties could not be
leased, if tenants are unable to meet their lease obligations, if a
significant tenant were not to make its lease payments or become a debtor in
a bankruptcy case under the United States Bankruptcy Code and the lease of
the related Mortgaged Property was rejected, or if for any other reason
rental payments could not be collected. If tenant sales in the Mortgaged
Properties that contain retail space were to decline, percentage rents may
decline or tenants may be unable to pay their base rent or other occupancy
costs. Upon the occurrence of an event of default by a tenant, delays and
costs in enforcing the lessor's rights could be experienced. Repayment of the
related Mortgage Loans will be affected by the expiration of space leases and
the ability of the respective borrowers to renew the leases or relet the
space on comparable terms. Even if vacated space is successfully relet, the
costs associated with reletting, including tenant improvements and leasing
commissions (to the extent not reserved), could be substantial and could
reduce cash flow from the Mortgaged Properties.
41 of the Mortgaged Properties, representing approximately 46.58% of the
Initial Pool Balance (by allocated loan amount), are retail properties.
Office properties may also be adversely affected if there is an economic
decline in the business operated by their tenants. 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.
8 of the Mortgaged Properties, representing approximately 6.04% of the
Initial Pool Balance (by allocated loan amount), are office properties.
Industrial and warehouse 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 or warehouse 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.
S-21
<PAGE>
10 of the Mortgaged Properties, representing approximately 6.76% of the
Initial Pool Balance (by allocated loan amount), are industrial or warehouse
properties.
Risks Particular to Multifamily Properties. Adverse economic conditions,
either local, regional or national, may limit the amount of rent that can be
charged and may result in a reduction in timely rent payments or a reduction
in occupancy levels. Further, the cost of operating a property may increase,
including the costs of utilities and the costs of required capital
expenditures. Occupancy and rent levels may also be affected by construction
of additional housing units, local military base closings and national and
local politics, including current or future rent stabilization and rent
control laws and agreements. In addition, the level of mortgage interest
rates may encourage tenants to purchase single-family housing. All of these
conditions and events may increase the possibility that a borrower may be
unable to meet its obligation under its Mortgage Loan.
45 of the Mortgaged Properties, representing approximately 36.98% of the
Initial Pool Balance (by allocated loan amount), are multifamily properties.
Risks Relating to Lack of Certificateholder Control Over Trust
Fund. Certificateholders generally do not have a right to vote, except with
respect to required consents to certain amendments to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement and, in certain cases, to replace parties to the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Furthermore, Certificateholders will generally not
have the right to make decisions with respect to the administration of the
Trust Fund, except for the right of the Controlling Class to replace the
Special Servicer and the right of the Directing Certificateholder to object
to any Asset Status Report and for holders of the Class A, Class P, Class B,
Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates to elect the Extension Adviser. See
"Servicing of the Mortgage Loans--General," "--The Extension Adviser" and
"--Replacement of the Special Servicer" herein. Such decisions are generally
made, subject to the express terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, by
the Servicer, the Trustee, the Special Servicer or the Fiscal Agent, as
applicable. Any decision made by one of those parties in respect of the Trust
Fund, even if made in the best interests of the Certificateholders (as
determined by such party in its good faith and reasonable judgment), may be
contrary to the decision that would have been made by the holders of any
particular Class or Classes of Offered Certificates and may negatively affect
the interests of such holders.
Special Servicer May Purchase Certificates. It is anticipated, but no
assurance can be given, that the Special Servicer, or an affiliate thereof,
will purchase the Class H Certificates. Such a purchase by the Special
Servicer could cause a conflict between such entity's duties pursuant to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and its interest as a holder of a
Certificate. However, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the
Mortgage Loans shall be administered in accordance with the Servicing
Standards without regard to ownership of any Certificate by the Servicer, the
Special Servicer, or any affiliate thereof. See "Servicing of the Mortgage
Loans--General" herein.
Yield Risk Associated With Changes in Concentrations. To the extent
payments in respect of principal (including any principal prepayments,
liquidations and the principal portion of the repurchase prices of any
Mortgage Loans repurchased due to breaches of representations) are received
with respect to the Mortgage Loans, the remaining Mortgage Loans as a group
may exhibit increased concentration with respect to the type of properties,
property characteristics, number of borrowers and affiliated borrowers or
geographic location. Because unscheduled collections of principal on the
Mortgage Loans are payable first on the Classes of Class A Certificates (in
order of numerical designation until paid) and the Class P Certificates (with
respect to collections on the Discount Mortgage Loans only) and then on the
other Classes of Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates) in order
of alphabetical designation, the more subordinate Classes of Certificates are
relatively more likely to be exposed to any risks associated with changes in
concentrations of loan or property characteristics.
Subordination of Subordinate Offered Certificates. As and to the extent
described herein, the rights of the holders of the Subordinate Offered
Certificates to receive distributions of amounts collected or advanced on or
in respect of the Mortgage Loans will be subordinated to those of the holders
of the Senior Certificates. Furthermore, the rights of the Class E
Certificateholders to receive distributions of amounts collected or advanced
on or in respect of the Mortgage Loans will also be subordinated to those of
the Class D, Class C and Class B Certificates, the rights of the Class D
Certificates will also be
S-22
<PAGE>
subordinated to those of the holders of the Class C and Class B Certificates,
and the rights of the Class C Certificates will also be subordinated to those
of the holders of the Class B Certificates. See "Description of the
Certificates--Distributions--Priority" and "--Subordination; Allocation of
Collateral Support Deficit" herein.
Management. The successful operation of a real estate project is also
dependent on the performance and viability of the property manager 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 and/or
managers or persons who may become operators and/or managers upon the
expiration or termination of leases or 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.
Potential Liability to the Trust Fund Relating to a Materially Adverse
Environmental Condition. An environmental site assessment was performed at
each of the Mortgaged Properties during the 12-month period prior to the date
of origination of the related Mortgage Loan. No such environmental assessment
revealed any material adverse environmental condition or circumstance at any
Mortgaged Property. In certain cases, the environmental consultant identified
a condition or circumstance (i) which was remediated or an escrow for such
remediation was established and/or (ii) for which the consultant recommended
an operations and maintenance plan or periodic monitoring of nearby
properties, which recommendations are consistent with industrywide practices.
The Pooling and Servicing Agreement requires that the Special Servicer
obtain an environmental site assessment of a Mortgaged Property securing a
defaulted Mortgage Loan prior to acquiring title thereto or assuming its
operation. Such prohibition 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 "Servicing of the Mortgage Loans--Realization Upon
Defaulted Mortgage Loans" herein and "Risk Factors--Environmental Risks" and
"Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage Loans--Environmental Risks" in the
Prospectus.
Tax Considerations Related to Foreclosure. If the Trust Fund were to
acquire a Mortgaged Property subsequent to a default on the related Mortgage
Loan pursuant to a foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Special
Servicer would be required to retain an independent contractor to operate and
manage the Mortgaged Property. Any net income from such operation and
management, other than qualifying "rents from real property," or any rental
income based on the net profits of a tenant or sub-tenant or allocable to a
service that is non-customary in the area and for the type of building
involved, will subject the Trust Fund to federal (and possibly state or
local) tax on such income at the highest marginal corporate tax rate
(currently 35%), thereby reducing net proceeds available for distribution to
Certificateholders. The Trust Fund will generally be permitted to receive
such taxable "net income from foreclosure property" if the Special Servicer
determines that the net after-tax recovery to the Trust Fund would be greater
than if such REO Property were leased to a third party at a fixed rental so
as to produce qualifying "rents from real property" or such property could
not reasonably be so leased.
No Earthquake Insurance. Except with respect to the Mortgaged Properties
securing 2 Mortgage Loans (representing approximately 3.63% of the Initial
Pool Balance), the Mortgaged Properties are not insured for any loss
resulting from an earthquake.
S-23
<PAGE>
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 to other reasons, certain
improvements may not comply fully with current Zoning Laws, including
density, use parking and setback 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.
Costs of Compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act. Under the
Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (the "ADA"), all public
accommodations are required to meet certain federal requirements
related to access and use by disabled persons. To the extent a Mortgaged
Property does not comply with the ADA, the Trust Fund or the related
borrower, as the case may be, is likely to incur costs of complying with the
ADA. In addition, noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines by
the federal government or an award of damages to private litigants.
Litigation. There may be legal proceedings pending and, from time to time,
threatened against the borrowers and their affiliates relating to the
business of or arising out of the ordinary course of business of the
borrowers and their affiliates. There can be no assurance that such
litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the distributions to
Certificateholders.
DESCRIPTION OF THE MORTGAGE POOL
GENERAL
All percentages of the Mortgage Loans and Mortgaged Properties, or of any
specified group of Mortgage Loans and Mortgaged Properties, referred to
herein without further description are approximate percentages by Initial
Pool Balance. The Trust Fund will consist primarily of 87 multifamily and
commercial, balloon or, in the case of 4 Mortgage Loans representing
approximately 1.30% of the Initial Pool Balance, fully-amortizing Mortgage
Loans with an Initial Pool Balance of approximately $443,159,377. Each
Mortgage Loan is evidenced by a promissory note (a "Mortgage Note") and
secured by a mortgage, deed of trust or other similar security instrument (a
"Mortgage") that creates a first mortgage lien on a fee simple estate (or, in
the case of 3 Mortgage Loans representing approximately 3.23% of the Initial
Pool Balance, a first mortgage lien on the fee simple estate and a leasehold
estate in the related Mortgaged Property or a portion thereof) in a commercial
or multifamily property (a "Mortgaged Property"). The "Cut-off Date Balance"
of any Mortgage Loan is the unpaid principal balance thereof as of the Cut-off
Date, after application of all payments due on or before such date, whether or
not received.
The Mortgage Loans are not insured or guaranteed by any Mortgage Loan
Seller, any governmental entity or private mortgage insurer. The Depositor
has not undertaken any evaluation of the significance of the recourse
provisions of any of a number of the Mortgage Loans that provide for 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.
On or prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor will acquire the Mortgage
Loans from the Mortgage Loan Sellers pursuant to the Purchase Agreements and
will thereupon assign its interests in the Mortgage Loans, without recourse,
to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders. See "--The Mortgage
Loan Sellers" below and "Description of the Pooling Agreements--Assignment of
Mortgage Loans; Repurchases" in the Prospectus. For purposes of the
Prospectus, each Mortgage Loan Seller constitutes a Mortgage Asset Seller.
All but 1 of the Mortgage Loans were originated during the approximately
27-month period between March 28, 1994 and June 20, 1996. The Mortgage Loan
Sellers originated 74 of the Mortgage Loans, which represent approximately
91.19% of the Initial Pool Balance, and acquired the remaining Mortgage Loans
from the respective originators thereof, generally in accordance with the
underwriting criteria described below under "--Underwriting Standards." 61 of
the Mortgage Loans, which represent approximately 62.50% of the Initial Pool
Balance, are being sold by Chemical Bank and 26 of the Mortgage Loans, which
represent approximately 37.50% of the Initial Pool Balance, are being sold by
BSFI.
S-24
<PAGE>
6 of the Mortgage Loans, with an aggregate Cut-off Date Balance of
approximately $34,020,180, have Net Mortgage Rates below 7.600% (each, a
"Discount Mortgage Loan"). The following table sets forth certain
information as of the Cut-off Date with respect to the Discount Mortgage
Loans:

CERTAIN TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS
All but 1 of the Mortgage Loans have Due Dates that occur on the first day
of each month and such other Mortgage Loan (representing approximately 0.77%
of the Initial Pool Balance) has a Due Date that occurs on the fifteenth day
of each month. All prepayments, if any, on the Mortgage Loans are generally
required to include one month's interest on the amount prepaid. All of the
Mortgage Loans bear fixed interest rates. 83 of the Mortgage Loans,
representing approximately 98.70% of the Initial Pool Balance, provide for
monthly payments of principal based on amortization schedules significantly
longer than the remaining terms of such Mortgage Loans. Thus, substantially
all of the Mortgage Loans will have Balloon Payments due at their stated
maturity dates, unless prepaid prior thereto.
Prepayment Provisions. Each Mortgage Loan restricts voluntary prepayments
in one or more of the following ways: (i) by prohibiting any prepayments for
a specified period of time after the date of origination (or in the case of 1
Mortgage Loan, the date of modification) of such Mortgage Loan (a "Lock-out
Period"), (ii) by requiring that any principal prepayment made during a
specified period of time after the date of origination of such Mortgage Loan
or, in the case of a Mortgage Loan also subject to a Lock-out Period, after the
date of expiration of such Lock-out Period (a "Yield Maintenance Period") be
accompanied by a Yield Maintenance Charge (as defined below) and (iii) by
imposing fees or premiums generally equal to a percentage of the then
outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan ("Prepayment Premiums")
in connection with full or partial principal prepayments for a specified period
of time after the expiration of the related Yield Maintenance Period or, in the
case of Mortgage Loans not subject to a Yield Maintenance Period, the related
Lock-out Period (in either case, a "Prepayment Premium Period"). Substantially
all of the Mortgage Loans specify a period of time (generally three to twelve
months) prior to the maturity date of such Mortgage Loan during which there
are no restrictions on voluntary prepayments.
The "Yield Maintenance Charge" will generally be equal to:
(i) With respect to Mortgage Loans sold by Chemical Bank to the
Depositor: the greater of (A) 1% (or 3% with respect to 10 of such
Mortgage Loans representing approximately 7.44% of the Initial Pool
Balance) of the entire unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan at
the time of prepayment, and (B) the present value as of the date of
prepayment and calculated using the Yield Rate as the discount rate, for
each month, of the difference between (1) the remaining scheduled monthly
payments of interest that would be due on the principal being prepaid at
the rate per annum provided for in the related Mortgage Note from the date
of prepayment to the maturity date and (2) the remaining scheduled monthly
payments of interest that would be due on the principal amount being
prepaid at the Yield Rate from the date of prepayment to the maturity
date; and
S-25
<PAGE>
(ii) with respect to Mortgage Loans sold by BSFI to the Depositor:
the greater of (A) 1% of the entire unpaid principal balance (or, in some
cases, of the amount of principal being prepaid) of the Mortgage Loan at
the time of prepayment, and (B) the difference between (1) the present
value of the remaining scheduled principal and interest payments
discounted at the Yield Rate and (2) the amount of principal being
prepaid.
The "Yield Rate" is a rate equal to: (i) with respect to the Mortgage Loans
sold by Chemical Bank to the Depositor, a per annum rate calculated by the
linear interpolation of the yields, as reported in "Federal Reserve Statistical
Release H.15-Selected Interest Rates" under the heading U.S. Government
Securities/Treasury constant maturities for the week ending prior to the date
of prepayment, of the U.S. Treasury constant maturities with maturity dates
(one longer and one shorter) most nearly approximating the maturity date (or
such other comparable calculation based on the United States Treasury Security
set forth in such other publication) such rate converted to a monthly
equivalent, and (ii) with respect to the Mortgage Loans sold by BSFI to the
Depositor, the rate means the bond equivalent yield (in the secondary market)
on the United States Treasury Security having a remaining term to maturity
closest to the maturity of the Mortgage Loan as reported in The Wall Street
Journal or in some cases in Federal Reserve Publication H.R. 15 on a specified
day preceding the date of prepayment or acceleration.
Generally, each Mortgage Loan prohibits partial prepayments. 5 Mortgage
Loans (Loan ID Nos. 1, 9, 12, 13, 33 on Exhibit A hereto), representing
approximately 12.42% of the Initial Pool Balance, each of which is secured by
more than one Mortgaged Property, however, permit (generally, subject to the
satisfaction of certain debt service requirements with respect to the
remaining Mortgaged Properties) the release of one or more of the related
Mortgaged Properties from the lien of the related Mortgage, and require a
partial prepayment in an amount equal to not less than 125% of the original
loan amount allocated to such Mortgaged Property in addition to any
applicable Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium on such prepayment.
The Mortgage Loans also provide for the mandatory repayment of the allocated
loan amount without premium in certain cases of substantial or total
destruction or condemnation.

Periods and Prepayment Premium Periods applicable to the Mortgage Loans:

(1) 1 Mortgage Loan, representing approximately 2.58% of the Initial Pool
Balance, may be partially prepaid prior to the expiration of the
related Lock-out Period.
Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges are distributable as
described herein under "Description of the Certificates--Allocation of
Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges."
Unless a Mortgage Loan is relatively near its stated maturity date or
unless the sale price or the amount of the refinancing of the related
Mortgaged Property is considerably higher than the current
S-26
<PAGE>
outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan (due to an increase in
the value of the Mortgaged Property or otherwise), the Yield Maintenance
Charge or Prepayment Premium may, even in a relatively low interest rate
environment, offset entirely or render insignificant any economic benefit to
be received by the borrower upon a refinancing or sale of the Mortgaged
Property. The Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium provision of a
Mortgage Loan creates an economic disincentive for the borrower to prepay
such Mortgage Loan voluntarily and, accordingly, the related borrower may
elect not to prepay such Mortgage Loan. However, there can be no assurance
that the imposition of a Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium will
provide a sufficient disincentive to prevent a voluntary principal
prepayment.
Certain state laws limit the amounts that a lender may collect from a
borrower as an additional charge in connection with the prepayment of a
mortgage loan. The Mortgage Loans do not require the payment of Prepayment
Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges in connection with casualty or
condemnation. Furthermore, the enforceability, under the laws of a number of
states, of provisions providing for payments comparable to the Prepayment
Premiums and/or Yield Maintenance Charges upon an involuntary prepayment is
unclear. No assurance can be given that, at the time a Prepayment Premium or
a Yield Maintenance Charge is required to be made on a Mortgage Loan in
connection with an involuntary prepayment, the obligation to pay such
Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge will be enforceable under
applicable state law. See "Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage Loans--Default
Interest and Limitations on Prepayment" in the Prospectus.
The following table sets forth for each month indicated in the table, (i)
the aggregate principal balance and the percentage of the Initial Pool
Balance expected to be outstanding and (ii) the percentage of such amounts
subject to a Lock-out Period, Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium,
in each case assuming no prepayments, defaults or extensions and based also
upon the assumptions set forth preceding the tables appearing under "Yield
and Maturity Considerations--Weighted Average Life" herein.

"Due-on-Sale" and "Due-on-Encumbrance" Provisions. The Mortgage Loans
contain "due-on- sale" and "due-on-encumbrance" clauses that in each case,
with limited exceptions, 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, without the consent of
the holder of the Mortgage; provided, however, under the terms of certain of
the Mortgage Loans, such consent must be granted if certain conditions are
met. The Special Servicer shall exercise (or waive its right to exercise) any
right it may have with respect to a Mortgage Loan containing a "due on sale"
clause (i) to accelerate the payments thereon, or (ii) to withhold its
consent to any such sale or transfer, consistent with the Servicing
Standards. With respect to a Mortgage Loan with a "due on encumbrance"
clause, the Special Servicer, shall exercise (or waive its right to exercise)
any right it may have with respect to a Mortgage Loan containing a "due on
encumbrance" clause (i) to accelerate the payments thereon, or (ii) to
withhold its consent to the creation of any additional lien or other
encumbrance, consistent with the Servicing Standards. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Special Servicer shall not waive any rights under any "due on
encumbrance" clause, or under any "due on sale" clause set forth in any of
the Mortgage Loans in the 3 loan groups with borrower concentrations in
excess of 5% (described in the second paragraph under "Risk
Factors--Increased Risk of Loss Associated with Concentration of Mortgage
Loans, Management and Borrowers" herein) unless it obtains from each Rating
Agency a written confirmation that such waiver would not cause a downgrading,
qualification or withdrawal of the ratings then assigned to any of the
Certificates. The existence of subordinated indebtedness, if created, 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, if the holder of the subordinated debt has filed for
bankruptcy or been placed in involuntary receivership, foreclosure of the
related Mortgage Loan could be delayed. See "Certain Legal Aspects of
Mortgage Loans--Due-on-Sale and Due-on-Encumbrance Provisions" and
"Subordinate Financing" in the Prospectus.
ADDITIONAL MORTGAGE LOAN INFORMATION
The following tables set forth certain anticipated characteristics of the
Mortgage Loans. The sum in any column may not equal the indicated total due
to rounding. The descriptions in this Prospectus Supplement of the Mortgage
Loans and the Mortgaged Properties are based upon the Mortgage Pool as it is
expected to be constituted as of the close of business on the Closing Date,
assuming that (i) all scheduled principal and interest payments due on or
before the Cut-off Date will be made, and (ii) there will be no principal
prepayments on or before the Cut-off Date. Prior to the issuance of the
Certificates, Mortgage Loans may be removed from the Mortgage Pool and not
sold by the Mortgage Loan Sellers to the Depositor as a result of
prepayments, delinquencies, incomplete documentation, or otherwise if the
Depositor or the related Mortgage Loan Seller deems such removal necessary,
appropriate or desirable. A limited number of other mortgage loans may be
included in the Mortgage Pool prior to the issuance of the 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 Certificates are issued, although the range of Mortgage Rates and
maturities as well as other characteristics of the Mortgage Loans described
herein 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. In the event Mortgage
Loans are removed from or added to the Mortgage Pool as set forth in the
preceding paragraph, such removal or addition will be noted in the Form 8-K.

The following tables set forth the range of LTV Ratios of the Mortgage
Loans as of the Cut-off Date and the maturity of each Mortgage Loan. An "LTV
Ratio" for any Mortgage Loan, as of any date of determination, is a fraction,
expressed as a percentage, the numerator of which is the scheduled principal
balance of such Mortgage Loan as of such date (assuming no defaults or
prepayments on such Mortgage Loan), and the denominator of which is the
appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property as determined by an appraisal
thereof obtained in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan.
Because it is based on the value of a Mortgaged Property determined as of loan
origination, the information set forth in the table below is not necessarily a
reliable measure of the related borrower's current equity in each Mortgaged
Property. In a declining real estate market, the fair market value of a
Mortgaged Property could have decreased from the value determined at
origination, and the current actual loan-to-value ratio of a Mortgage Loan may
be higher than its LTV Ratio at origination, even after taking into account
amortization since origination.

The foregoing characteristics, along with certain additional
characteristics of the Mortgage Loans presented on a loan-by-loan basis, are
set forth in Exhibit A to this Prospectus Supplement. Certain additional
information regarding the Mortgage Loans is set forth herein below under
"--Chemical Bank's Underwriting Standards" and "--BSFI's Underwriting
Standards" and "--Representations and Warranties; Repurchases" and in the
Prospectus under "Description of the Trust Funds--Mortgage Loans" and
"Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage Loans."
UNDERWRITTEN NET CASH FLOW
The "Underwritten Net Cash Flow" for a Mortgaged Property is the estimated
annual revenue derived from the use and operation of such Mortgaged Property
less estimated annual expenses, including operating expenses (such as utilities,
administrative expenses, repairs and maintenance, management fees and
advertising), fixed expenses (such as insurance and real estate taxes) and
reserves (such as reserves for ongoing capital expenditures, leasing commissions
and tenant improvements). In calculating Underwritten Net Cash Flow, certain
non-operating items such as depreciation, amortization, partnership
distributions, financing fees and capital expenditures other than reserves for
replacements, are deducted.
Revenue. In determining the revenue for each Mortgaged Property, the
Mortgage Loan Sellers generally relied on historical operating statements for
1995 or a consecutive 12-month period ending in the fourth quarter of 1995 or
the first quarter of 1996 ("Rolling 12 Months") and current rent rolls.
Operating statements were generally certified but unaudited.
Vacancy. Generally, in determining the vacancy allowance for each
Mortgaged Property, the Mortgage Loan Sellers generally used the greatest of
(i) the actual vacancy, (ii) the vacancy in the related sub-market, and (iii)
5%.
Expenses. In determining expenses for each Mortgaged Property, the
Mortgage Loan Sellers relied on the historical operating statements for
calendar 1995 or the Rolling 12 Months. In all cases where historical
operating statements did not, in the opinion of the underwriter, reflect the
true stabilized level of an expense, other data such as prior year expense
levels or comparable property expenses were considered. Property management
fees were generally assumed to be the greatest of (i) market rates, (ii) 6%
of effective gross revenue for self-storage properties, (iii) 5% of effective
gross revenue for commercial properties and for certain multifamily
properties, and (iv) 4% of effective gross revenue for the remainder of the
multifamily properties.
Replacement Reserves. Replacement reserves were calculated in accordance
with the expected useful life of the components of the related Mortgaged
Property during the term of the Mortgage Loan. The useful life and cost of
replacements were based upon estimates provided by licensed engineers
pursuant to building condition reports completed for each Mortgaged Property,
subject to certain minimum underwritten replacement reserves which are
described under the heading "Escrow Requirements" set forth under "--Chemical
Bank's Underwriting Standards" and "--BSFI's Underwriting Standards" below.
Tenant improvements and leasing commission reserves were based on the average
of estimated annual lease expirations over the term of the Mortgage Loan,
according to cash flow projections prepared for each commercial property.
Generally, such cash flow projections assumed market rental rates and tenant
allowances based on current market conditions and a maximum 60% tenant
retention rate. For some retail properties, a 100% renewal probability was
assumed for anchor tenants.
ASSESSMENTS OF PROPERTY CONDITION
Property Inspection. All of the Mortgaged Properties were inspected during
the underwriting process by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller's
professional staff, to assess the Mortgaged Property's general condition. No
inspection revealed any patent structural deficiency or any deferred
maintenance considered material and adverse to the interest of the holders of
the Offered Certificates or for which adequate reserves have not been
established.
Appraisals. All of the Mortgaged Properties were appraised in connection
with the origination of the related Mortgage Loans. Each such appraisal
(other than with respect to 1 Mortgage Loan
S-35
<PAGE>
representing approximately 0.77% of the Initial Pool Balance) was prepared by
an appraiser belonging to the Appraisal Institute and in compliance with the
Code of Professional Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct of the
Appraisal Institute and the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal
Practice as adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal
Foundation and accepted and incorporated into the Federal Institutions
Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act ("FIRREA").
The purpose of each appraisal was to provide an opinion as to 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 fair market
value.
Environmental Reports. A "Phase I" environmental site assessment was
performed with respect to each Mortgaged Property. See "--Representations and
Warranties; Repurchases" below.
Building Condition Reports. In connection with the origination of each
Mortgage Loan, a licensed engineer or consultant inspected each related
Mortgaged Property to assess the structure, exterior walls, roofing, interior
structure and mechanical and electrical systems. The resulting reports
indicated deferred maintenance items on certain Mortgaged Properties and
recommended certain capital improvements for which escrows were established
at closing. In addition, the building condition reports provided a projection
of necessary replacements and repair of structural and mechanical systems
over the life of the related Mortgage Loans.
THE MORTGAGE LOAN SELLERS
Chemical Bank. Chemical Bank is the parent corporation of the Depositor
and an affiliate of Chase Securities Inc., a co-lead manager. See "The
Depositor" in the Prospectus.
Bear, Stearns Funding Inc. Bear, Stearns Funding Inc. ("BSFI"),
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bear Stearns Mortgage Capital Corporation, is a
corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware.
The information set forth herein concerning each Mortgage Loan Seller and
their underwriting standards has been provided by such Mortgage Loan Seller,
and neither the Depositor nor the Underwriters make any representation or
warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of such information.
All of the Mortgage Loans were originated or acquired by the Mortgage Loan
Sellers, generally in accordance with the underwriting criteria described
below.
CHEMICAL BANK'S UNDERWRITING STANDARDS
General. Of the 61 Mortgage Loans sold to the Depositor by Chemical Bank,
all of such Mortgage Loans, with the exception of 10 Mortgage Loans with an
aggregate Cut-off Date Balance of approximately $32,962,523 (representing
approximately 7.44% of the Initial Pool Balance), were originated by Chemical
Bank, generally in accordance with the underwriting criteria described
herein. The remaining 10 Mortgage Loans were purchased by Chemical Bank from
a non-affiliated originator of such Mortgage Loans. Prior to its acquisition
of such Mortgage Loans, Chemical Bank's underwriting standards required that
a Chemical Bank staff member perform a site visit and a revised underwriting
of the Mortgage Loan to determine that it meets Chemical Bank's underwriting
and program standards.
For its securitization program, Chemical Bank originates and purchases
seven and ten year balloon and fifteen year fully-amortizing first lien
mortgage loans on fee owned properties. The mortgage loans are secured by
retail, industrial, multifamily or office properties located in the United
States. Chemical Bank targets loan amounts in the $2 million to $20 million
range. All of the mortgage loans funded or acquired by Chemical Bank for its
securitization program are fixed-rate mortgage loans, and the seven and ten
year mortgage loans have amortization schedules of 30 years or less.
Upon receipt of a loan package, Chemical Bank's underwriters commence an
extensive review of the borrower's mortgage loan application and the related
mortgaged property, including an analysis of historical property operating
statements, rent rolls and a projection of future operating performance. The
S-36
<PAGE>
underwriter also conducts a site inspection to confirm the occupancy rate of
the mortgaged property, analyzes the market and assesses the utility of the
mortgaged property within the market. Chemical Bank's underwriting standards
require third party reports for appraisal, building condition and
environmental compliance. Each report is reviewed for acceptability by a
staff member of Chemical Bank's Technical Services Unit for compliance with
program standards and such staff member approves or rejects such report. The
results of these reviews are incorporated into the underwriting report.
The credit of the potential borrower and certain key principals are
examined for financial strength prior to approval. The credit of key tenants
is also examined as part of the loan underwriting for commercial properties.
Prior to commitment, all mortgage loans must be approved by Chemical
Bank's credit committee in accordance with Chemical Bank's credit policies.
The credit committee may approve a mortgage loan as recommended, modify the
loan terms, or decline a loan transaction. All Mortgage Loans purchased by
Chemical Bank from non-affiliated originators have been approved by the
Chemical Bank's credit committee in the same manner as direct mortgage loan
originations.
Debt Service Coverage Ratio. Chemical Bank's underwriting standards
generally require the following minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratios for each
of the indicated property types:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
PROPERTY TYPE DSCR GUIDELINE
- - ------------------ --------------
<S> <C>
Multifamily ....... 1.20x
Anchored Retail .. 1.25x
Unanchored Retail 1.30x
Office ............ 1.30x
Industrial ........ 1.30x
</TABLE>
The debt service coverage guidelines listed above are calculated based on
Underwritten Net Cash Flow at the time of origination. Therefore, the Debt
Service Coverage Ratio for each Mortgage Loan as reported elsewhere in this
Prospectus Supplement may differ from the amount calculated at the time of
origination.
Borrower. A thorough investigation of the quality and financial condition
of the borrower and its principals is conducted as part of the underwriting
process. Only 2 of the Mortgage Loans (representing approximately 0.92% of
the Initial Pool Balance) sold by Chemical Bank to the Depositor were made to
multiple asset entities. Credit analysis on a borrower includes a review of
historical financial statements, including operating statements and rent
rolls (which are generally unaudited), historical tax returns, third party
credit reports which are ordered by Chemical Bank and, if applicable, the
loan payment history of the borrower. Chemical Bank will also perform a
qualitative analysis which incorporates independent credit checks, periodical
searches, industry research and published debt and equity information with
respect to certain principals of the borrower as well as the borrower itself.
Typically, borrowing entities are single purpose entities which may also meet
rating agency criteria as "special purpose entities."
Escrow Requirements. Chemical Bank requires substantially all borrowers to
fund various escrows for taxes and insurance, capital expenses and leasing
costs based on the property type, terms of specific leases, and the overall
condition of the property. Generally, the required escrows for Mortgage Loans
originated by Chemical Bank are as follows:
o TAXES - Typically an initial deposit and monthly escrow deposits
equal to 1/12th of the annual property taxes (based on the most recent
property assessment and the current millage rate) were required.
o INSURANCE - If the property was insured under an individual policy
(i.e., the property is not covered by a blanket policy), typically an
initial deposit and monthly escrow deposits equal to 1/12th of the annual
property insurance premium were required. If the Mortgaged Property is
covered by a blanket policy of insurance, Chemical Bank reserves its right
in the Mortgage to require insurance escrows.
S-37
<PAGE>
o REPLACEMENT RESERVES - Generally, a replacement reserve was
required. Monthly deposits, and in some cases, initial deposits, were
generally required based on the amount recommended pursuant to the
building condition report. Replacement reserves are calculated in
accordance with the expected useful life of the components of the property
during the term of the mortgage loan. In the case of 13 Mortgage Loans
(representing approximately 13.43% of the Initial Pool Balance), the
deposits differed from the building condition report since the related
borrowers submitted evidence (in the form of contractor estimates) that
certain items could be completed at lower cost than the estimate in the
building condition report. The estimates were reviewed and approved by
Chemical Bank's engineering staff prior to accepting them as a basis for
the escrow.
Notwithstanding the actual level of escrowed reserves, the following
minimum reserve levels were assumed by Chemical Bank in determining
Underwritten Net Cash Flow:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
<S> <C>
Multifamily ..... $150 per unit
Retail .......... $0.15 per square foot
Office .......... $0.20 per square foot
Industrial ...... $0.10 per square foot
</TABLE>
o COMPLETION/REPAIR/ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION - Typically, a
completion repair reserve was required. An initial deposit, upon funding
of the mortgage loan, in an amount equal to at least 125% of the estimated
costs of repairs or replacements to be completed within the first year of
the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the building condition report was required.
6 of the Mortgaged Properties (with an aggregate allocated loan amount
representing approximately 5.11% of the Initial Pool Balance) required
remediation for an environmental condition for which either an undertaking
letter was delivered at origination, or, if in the underwriter's judgment
the cost of remediation warranted reserves, an escrow was established to
cover the cost of such remediation.
o RE-TENANTING/DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE - In some cases, major tenants
have lease expirations within the Mortgage Loan term. To mitigate this
risk, special reserves were established to be funded either at closing of
the Mortgage Loan and/or during the Mortgage Loan term to cover certain
anticipated leasing commissions or tenant improvement costs which might be
associated with releasing the space occupied by such tenants.
BSFI'S UNDERWRITING STANDARDS
General. Of the 26 Mortgage Loans sold to the Depositor by BSFI, all of
such Mortgage Loans, with the exception of 3 Mortgage Loans (representing
approximately 1.36% of the Initial Pool Balance), were originated by BSFI,
generally in accordance with the underwriting criteria described herein. The
remaining 3 Mortgage Loans were purchased by BSFI from non-affiliated
originators of such Mortgage Loans. Prior to acquisition, BSFI associates
reviewed the related originator's loan files to determine that each Mortgage
Loan met BSFI's underwriting standards. In addition, for 2 of such Mortgage
Loans, BSFI's underwriting standards required that the originators conduct an
analysis of each related Mortgaged Property, which analysis was substantially
similar to the procedures followed by BSFI when directly originating a loan.
BSFI originates and purchases loans secured by retail, office, industrial,
multifamily, self-storage and hotel properties located in the United States.
BSFI targets loan amounts ranging from $2 million to $20 million. All
mortgage loans funded by BSFI are fixed rate loans with amortization
schedules of 30 years or less.
Upon receipt of a loan request, BSFI underwriters conduct an initial
screening of the potential loan investment to determine if it meets BSFI's
investment criteria relating to property type, location, loan type and
requested loan amount. Upon the potential borrower's acceptance of a
preliminary quote, BSFI underwriters prepare and deliver to the potential
borrower a loan application outlining the terms of the proposed mortgage loan
as well as a detailed information request. Full due diligence and
underwriting by the BSFI underwriters commence upon receipt of the executed
application, requested due diligence information and a non-refundable
inspection fee. Additionally, the borrower is required to pay, in
S-38
<PAGE>
advance, for the cost of third party reports which are ordered directly by,
and for the benefit of, BSFI. The appraisal and environmental and engineering
assessments relating to 1 Mortgage Loan (Loan ID No. 12 on Exhibit A hereto)
secured by 7 Mortgaged Properties (representing approximately 2.18% of the
Initial Pool Balance) were ordered by the related borrower; these assessments
were performed by third party consultants acceptable to BSFI and were
addressed to BSFI.
The underwriting team for each loan is required to prepare an extensive
review of the related mortgaged property, including an analysis of the
appraisal, engineering report, environmental report and historical property
operating statements. The credit of the borrower and certain key principals
of the borrower are examined for financial strength and character prior to
approval of the loan. The credit of key tenants is also examined as part of
the underwriting process. The underwriters visit the property for a site
inspection to confirm the occupancy rates of the property, analyze the
property's market and the utility of the property within the market.
Prior to commitment, all mortgage loans must be approved by BSFI's loan
committee which is comprised of senior Bear Stearns executives from the Real
Estate Investment Banking Group, the Mortgage Capital Group and Mortgage
Trading. The loan committee convenes on an ad hoc basis after distribution of
a summary memorandum which describes the proposed mortgage loan. The loan
committee may reject a mortgage loan, approve a mortgage loan, recommend
further due diligence or a restructuring of the loan terms or a
re-underwriting of the property cash flow. All of the Mortgage Loans
originated or acquired by BSFI have been approved by the loan committee.
Debt Service Coverage Ratio. BSFI's underwriting standards generally
require the following minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratios for each of the
indicated property types:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
PROPERTY TYPE DSCR GUIDELINE
- - ------------------ --------------
<S> <C>
Anchored Retail .. 1.25x
Unanchored Retail 1.30x
Multifamily(1) ... 1.25x
Self-Storage ...... 1.25x
Industrial ........ 1.25x
Office ............ 1.25x
Hotel ............. 1.40x
</TABLE>
- - ------------
(1) Excluding properties subject to low income housing tax credits. See
"--Low Income Housing Tax Credits."
The debt service coverage ratio guidelines listed above are calculated
based on anticipated Underwritten Net Cash Flow at the time of origination.
Therefore, the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for each Mortgage Loan as reported
elsewhere in this Prospectus Supplement may differ from the amount calculated
at the time of origination.
Borrower. The quality and financial condition of the borrower is an
important consideration to BSFI and therefore a thorough investigation is
performed as part of the underwriting process. Credit analysis on a borrower
includes a review of historical financial statements (which may be, but are
not necessarily, audited), historical income tax returns for the borrowing
entity and its principals, third party credit reports ordered by BSFI,
periodical searches, industry contacts and internal and published Bear
Stearns debt and equity research. Qualitative analysis is performed through
conversations with individuals and companies with whom the borrower has
conducted business. All borrowers were generally required to be special
purpose entities and some may also have been required to meet rating agency
criteria as "special purpose entities."
Escrow Requirements. BSFI requires each borrower to fund various escrows
for taxes & insurance, capital expenses and leasing costs based on the
property type, terms of specific leases and the overall condition of the
property. Generally, the required escrows for Mortgage Loans originated by
BSFI are as follows:
S-39
<PAGE>
o TAXES AND INSURANCE - Typically, a pro rated initial deposit and
monthly deposits equal to 1/12 of the annual property taxes (based on the
most recent property assessment and the current millage rate) and annual
property insurance premium. In the case of 1 Mortgage Loan, representing
approximately 2.65% of the Initial Pool Balance, a letter of credit in an
amount equal to the annual property tax bill has been provided by the
borrower in lieu of monthly escrows.
o REPLACEMENT RESERVES - Monthly deposits generally based on the
greater of the amount recommended pursuant to a building condition report
prepared for BSFI or the following minimum amounts:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
<S> <C>
Retail ........... $0.10/square foot
Multifamily ...... $200/Unit
Self-storage ..... $0.10/square foot
Industrial ....... $0.10/square foot
Office ........... $0.20/square foot
Hotel ............ 4% of gross revenues
</TABLE>
o DEFERRED MAINTENANCE/ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION - An initial
deposit, upon funding of the mortgage loan, in an amount equal to no less
than 100%, and as much as 125%, of the estimated cost of the recommended
substantial repairs or replacements pursuant to a building condition
report completed by a licensed engineer and the estimated cost of
environmental remediation expenses as recommended by an independent
environmental assessment.
Low Income Housing Tax Credits. One of the Mortgage Loans (representing
approximately 1.01% of the Initial Pool Balance), is secured by a Mortgaged
Property which is eligible to receive low-income housing tax credits ("Tax
Credits") pursuant to Section 42 of the Code ("Section 42"). Under
Section 42, a property owner must comply with certain tenant income
restrictions and rental restrictions (including certain rent limitations
which may adversely effect the borrowers ability to raise rents) over a
15-year compliance period. If a projects fails to adhere to Section 42
guidelines or is foreclosed, the owner is subject to recapture of the
unearned tax credits plus interest. BSFI underwriters review landlord
compliance with these restrictions. The value of the Tax Credits was not
considered as part of the appraised value for purposes of computing the
original LTV Ratio.
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; REPURCHASES
In each Purchase Agreement, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller will
represent and warrant with respect to each Mortgage Loan sold by such
Mortgage Loan Seller, as of the Closing Date, or as of such other date

assigns, subject only to (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,

other requirements of any federal, state or local laws, including, without
limitation, truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, equal
credit opportunity or disclosure laws, applicable to such Mortgage Loan
have been complied with as of the date of origination of such Mortgage
Loan;
(xvi) all taxes and governmental assessments that prior to the Closing

appropriate detail;
(xviii) each related Mortgaged Property is insured by a fire and
extended perils insurance policy, issued by an insurer meeting the
requirements of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, in an amount not less
than the replacement cost and the amount necessary to avoid the operation
of any co-insurance provisions with respect to the Mortgaged Property;
each related Mortgaged Property is also covered by business interruption
insurance and comprehensive general liability insurance in amounts
generally required by institutional lenders for similar properties; all
premiums on such insurance policies required to be paid as of the date
hereof have been paid; such insurance policies require prior notice to the
insured of termination or cancellation, and no such notice has been
received; each related Mortgage obligates the related borrower to maintain
all such insurance and, at such borrower's failure to do so, authorizes
the mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the borrower's cost and
expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from such borrower;
(xix) there is no material default, breach, violation or event of
acceleration existing under the related Mortgage or the related Mortgage
Note, and to the Mortgage Loan Seller's knowledge no event (other than
payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the passage of time or
with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would and does
constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Mortgage Loan Seller makes no
representation or warranty with respect to any default, breach, violation
or event of acceleration (a) that may have occurred as a result of any
failure of the related mortgagor to comply with any "due on sale"
provision contained in the related Mortgage Note or Mortgage or (b) that

adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the
benefits of the security, including realization by judicial or, if
applicable, non-judicial foreclosure, subject to the effect of bankruptcy
or similar law affecting the right of creditors and the application of
principles of equity, and there is no exemption available to the borrower
which would interfere with such right to foreclose;
(xxii) except for 1 Mortgage Loan representing approximately 1.14% of
the Initial Pool Balance, a Phase I environmental report was conducted by
a reputable environmental consultant within 12 months of the origination
of such Mortgage Loan, which report did not indicate any material
S-42
<PAGE>
existence of any dangerous, toxic or hazardous pollutants, chemicals,
wastes or substances ("Hazardous Materials"), except for those
conditions that were remediated prior to the Cut-off Date. To the
best of the Mortgage Loan Seller's knowledge, each related Mortgaged
Property is in material compliance with all applicable federal, state and
local laws pertaining to environmental hazards, and no notice of violation
of such laws has been issued by any governmental agency or authority;
(xxiii) each related Mortgage or loan agreement contains provisions
for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of
such Mortgage Loan if, without complying with the requirements of the
Mortgage or loan agreement, the related Mortgaged Property, or any
controlling interest therein, is directly or indirectly transferred or
sold, or encumbered in connection with subordinate financing and each
related Mortgage prohibits the pledge or encumbrance of the Mortgaged
Property without the consent of the holder of the Mortgage Loan;
(xxiv) the Mortgage Loan is directly secured by a Mortgage on a
commercial property or multifamily residential property, and either (1)
substantially all of the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan were used to
acquire, improve or protect an interest in such real property which, as of
the origination date, was the sole security for such Mortgage Loan (unless
the Mortgage Loan has been modified in a manner that constituted a deemed
exchange under Section 1001 of the Code at a time when the Mortgage Loan
was not in default or default with respect thereto was not reasonably
foreseeable) or (2) the fair market value of such real property was at
least equal to 80% of the principal amount of the Mortgage Loan (a) at
origination (or if the Mortgage Loan has been modified in a manner that
constituted a deemed exchange under Section 1001 of the Code at a time
when the Mortgage Loan was not in default or default with respect thereto
was not reasonably foreseeable, the date of the last such modification) or
(b) at the Closing Date; provided that the fair market value of the real
property interest must first be reduced by (A) the amount of any lien on
the real property interest that is senior to the Mortgage Loan (unless
such senior lien also secures a Mortgage Loan, in which event the
computation described in (a) and (b) shall be made on an aggregate basis)
and (B) a proportionate amount of any lien that is in parity with the
Mortgage Loan (unless such other lien secures a Mortgage Loan that is
cross-collateralized with such Mortgage Loan, in which event the
computation described in (a) and (b) shall be made on an aggregate basis);
(xxv) except for 1 Mortgage Loan representing approximately 0.35% of
the Initial Pool Balance, as of the date of origination of such Mortgage
Loan, and, to the Mortgage Loan Seller's knowledge, as of the Cut-off
Date, (a) each Mortgaged Property was in material compliance with all
applicable laws, zoning ordinances (including legal non-conforming uses),
rules, covenants and restrictions affecting the construction, occupancy,
use and operation of such Mortgaged Property, and (b) all material
inspections, licenses and certificates, including certificates of
occupancy, required by law, ordinance, regulation or insurance standards
to be made or issued with regard to the Mortgaged Property, were issued or
made and were in full force and effect, or, in the case of certificates of
occupancy, an opinion of counsel or architect, or a letter from the
appropriate municipal authority was delivered which provides that (A) all
certificates of occupancy have been issued, or (B) no certificates of
occupancy are required, or (C) there are no violations of existing
building codes; and
(xxvi) the Mortgage Loan file contains an appraisal of the related
Mortgaged Property which appraisal is signed by a qualified appraiser,
who, to the Mortgage Loan Seller's knowledge, had no interest, direct or
indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security
thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or
disapproval of the Mortgage Loan, except for 1 Mortgage Loan representing
0.77% of the Initial Pool Balance, the appraisal and appraiser both
satisfy the requirements of Title XI of the Federal Institutions Reform,
Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 and the regulations promulgated
thereunder, all as in effect on the date the Mortgage Loan was originated.
If a Mortgage Loan Seller has been notified of a material breach of any of
the foregoing representations and warranties and if such Mortgage Loan Seller
cannot cure such breach within a period of 90 days following the earlier of
its receipt of such notice or its discovery of the breach, then such Mortgage
Loan Seller will be obligated pursuant to the related Purchase Agreement (the
relevant rights
S-43
<PAGE>
under which will be assigned, together with its interests in the Mortgage
Loans, by the Depositor to the Trustee) to repurchase the affected Mortgage
Loan within such 90-day period at a price (the "Purchase Price") equal to
the sum of (i) the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan as of
the date of purchase, (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest on such Mortgage
Loan at the related Mortgage Rate, in effect from time to time, to but not
including the Due Date in the Due Period of purchase, (iii) all related
unreimbursed Servicing Advances plus accrued and unpaid interest on related
Advances at the Reimbursement Rate, and unpaid Special Servicing Fees
allocable to such Mortgage Loan and (iv) all expenses reasonably incurred or
to be incurred by the Special Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee in
respect of the breach giving rise to the repurchase obligation, including any
expenses arising out of the enforcement of the repurchase obligation.
The foregoing repurchase obligation will constitute the sole remedy
available to the Certificateholders and the Trustee for any breach of any
Mortgage Loan Seller's representations and warranties regarding the Mortgage
Loans. Each 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
none of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the
Fiscal Agent, the Underwriters or any of their affiliates (other than any
Mortgage Loan Seller) will be obligated to repurchase any affected Mortgage
Loan in connection with a breach of the Mortgage Loan Seller's
representations and warranties if a Mortgage Loan Seller defaults on its
obligation to do so. However, the Depositor will not include any Mortgage
Loan in the Mortgage Pool if anything has come to the Depositor's attention
prior to the Closing Date that causes it to believe that the representations
and warranties made by a Mortgage Loan Seller regarding such Mortgage Loan
will not be correct in all material respects when made. See "Description of
the Pooling Agreements--Representations and Warranties; Repurchases" in the
Prospectus.
DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES
GENERAL
The Certificates will be issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and will represent in the aggregate the entire beneficial ownership
interest in the Trust Fund consisting of: (i) the Mortgage Loans and all
payments under and proceeds of the Mortgage Loans received after the Cut-off
Date (exclusive of payments of principal and interest due on or before the
Cut-off Date); (ii) any REO Property; (iii) such funds or assets as from time
to time are deposited in the Certificate Account, the Distribution Account
and the REO Account, if established; (iv) the rights of the mortgagee under
all insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans; and (v) certain
rights of the Depositor under the Purchase Agreements relating to Mortgage
Loan document delivery requirements and the representations and warranties of
the Mortgage Loan Sellers regarding the Mortgage Loans.
The Depositor's Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series
1996-1 (the "Certificates") will consist of the following twelve classes (each,
a "Class"): the Class A-1 and Class A-2 Certificates (collectively, the "Class A
Certificates"), the Class P, the Class X, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E,
Class F, Class G, Class H and Class R Certificates. The Class A Certificates,
the Class P Certificates and the Class X Certificates are referred to
collectively herein as the "Senior Certificates." The Class B, Class C, Class D,
Class E, Class F, Class G and Class H Certificates are referred to collectively
herein as the "Subordinate Certificates." The Class B, Class C, Class D and
Class E Certificates are referred to collectively herein as the "Subordinate
Offered Certificates." The Class R Certificates are sometimes referred to
herein as the "Residual Certificates."
Only the Class A, Class P, Class X, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E
Certificates are offered hereby (collectively, the "Offered Certificates").
The Class F, Class G, Class H and Class R Certificates (collectively, the
"Non-Offered Certificates") have not been registered under the Securities Act
of 1933 and are not offered hereby.
The "Certificate Balance" of any Class of Certificates (other than the
Class X and Residual Certificates) outstanding at any time represents the
maximum amount which the holders thereof are entitled to receive as
distributions allocable to principal from the cash flow on the Mortgage Loans
and
S-44
<PAGE>
the other assets in the Trust Fund. On each Distribution Date, the
Certificate Balance of each Class of Certificates will be reduced by any
distributions of principal actually made on, and any Collateral Support
Deficit actually allocated to, such Class of Certificates on such
Distribution Date. The initial Certificate Balance of each Class of Offered
Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates) is expected to be the
balance set forth on the cover of this Prospectus Supplement. The Class X
Certificates will not have a Certificate Balance or entitle their holders to
distributions of principal.
The Offered Certificates will be maintained and transferred on the
book-entry records of DTC and its Participants and issued in denominations of
$100,000 initial Certificate Balance, or in the case of the Class X
Certificates, $1,000,000 initial Notional Amount, and integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof. The "Percentage Interest" evidenced by any
Certificate (other than the Class R Certificates) is equal to the initial
denomination thereof as of the Closing Date, divided by the initial
Certificate Balance or Notional Amount of the Class to which it belongs.
The 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
Certificate Owner will be entitled to receive a Definitive Certificate
representing its interest in such Class, except as set forth below under
"--Book-Entry Registration and Definitive Certificates." Unless and until
Definitive Certificates are issued, all references to actions by holders of
the Offered Certificates will refer to actions taken by DTC upon instructions
received from Certificate Owners through its Participants, and all references
herein to payments, notices, reports and statements to holders of the Offered
Certificates will refer to payments notices, reports and statements to DTC or
Cede & Co., as the registered holder of the Offered Certificates, for
distribution to Certificate Owners through its Participants in accordance
with DTC procedures. See "Description of the Certificates--Book-Entry
Registration and Definitive Certificates" in the Prospectus.
Until Definitive Certificates are issued, interests in any Class of
Offered Certificates will be transferred on the book-entry records of DTC and
its Participants.
PAYING AGENT, CERTIFICATE REGISTRAR AND AUTHENTICATING AGENT
Chemical Bank, 450 West 33rd Street, Structured Finance Services (MBS),
15th Floor, New York, New York 10001 will be appointed by the Trustee as
paying agent (in such capacity, the"Paying Agent" In addition, Chemical
Bank will initially serve as registrar (in such capacity,
the "Certificate Registrar") for purposes of recording and otherwise
providing for the registration of the Offered Certificates and of transfers
and exchanges of the Definitive Certificates, if issued, and as authenticating
agent of the Certificates (in such capacity, the "Authenticating Agent").
Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, in the event Chemical Bank
resigns or is removed as Servicer, Chemical Bank will have the right to resign
as Paying Agent, Certificate Registrar and/or Authenticating Agent.
BOOK-ENTRY REGISTRATION AND DEFINITIVE CERTIFICATES
General. Certificate Owners that are not Direct or Indirect Participants
but desire to purchase, sell or otherwise transfer ownership of, or other
interests in, the Offered Certificates may do so only through Direct and
Indirect Participants. In addition, Certificate Owners will receive all
distributions of principal of and interest on the Offered Certificates from
the Paying Agent through DTC and its Direct and Indirect Participants.
Accordingly, Certificate Owners may experience delays in their receipt of
payments. Unless and until Definitive Certificates are issued, it is
anticipated that the only registered Certificateholder of the Offered
Certificates will be Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC. Except as otherwise
provided under "--Reports to Certificateholders; Certain Available
Information" below, Certificate Owners will not be recognized by the Paying
Agent, the Certificate Registrar, the Trustee or the Servicer as
Certificateholders, as such term is used in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, and Certificate Owners will be permitted to receive information
furnished to Certificateholders and to exercise the rights of
Certificateholders only indirectly through DTC and its Direct and Indirect
Participants.
Under the rules, regulations and procedures creating and affecting DTC and
its operations (the "Rules"), DTC is required to make book-entry transfers of
the Offered Certificates among Participants
S-45
<PAGE>
and to receive and transmit distributions of principal of, and interest on,
the Offered Certificates. Direct and Indirect Participants with which
Certificate Owners have accounts with respect to the Offered Certificates
similarly are required to make book-entry transfers and receive and transmit
such distributions on behalf of their respective Certificate Owners.
Accordingly, although Certificate Owners will not possess physical
certificates evidencing their interests in the Offered Certificates, the
Rules provide a mechanism by which Certificate Owners, through their Direct
and Indirect Participants, will receive distributions and will be able to
transfer their interests in the Offered Certificates.
None of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Paying Agent, the Certificate
Registrar, the Underwriters or the Trustee 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 the Offered Certificates held by Cede &
Co., as nominee for DTC, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any
records relating to such beneficial ownership interest.
Definitive Certificates. Definitive Certificates will be issued to
Certificate Owners or their nominees, respectively, rather than to DTC or its
nominee, only under the limited conditions set forth in the Prospectus under
"Description of the Certificates--Book-Entry Registration and Definitive
Certificates."
Upon the occurrence of an event described in the Prospectus in the last
paragraph under "Description of the Certificates--Book-Entry Registration and
Definitive Certificates," the Paying Agent is required to notify, through
DTC, Direct Participants who have ownership of Offered Certificates as
indicated on the records of DTC of the availability of Definitive
Certificates. Upon surrender by DTC of the definitive certificates
representing the Offered Certificates and upon receipt of instructions from
DTC for re-registration, the Certificate Registrar and the Authenticating
Agent will reissue the Offered Certificates as Definitive Certificates issued
in the respective principal amounts owned by individual Certificate Owners,
and thereafter the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar, the Trustee and
the Servicer will recognize the holders of such Definitive Certificates as
Certificateholders under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
For additional information regarding DTC and Certificates maintained on
the book-entry records thereof, see "Description of the
Certificates--Book-Entry Registration and Definitive Certificates" in the
Prospectus.
DISTRIBUTIONS
Method, Timing and Amount. Distributions on the Certificates will be made
by the Paying Agent, to the extent of available funds, on the 18th day of
each month or, if any such 18th day is not a business day, then on the next
succeeding business day, commencing in August 1996 (each, a "Distribution
Date"). All such distributions (other than the final distribution on any
Certificate) will be made to the Certificateholders in whose names the
Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date. With
respect to any Distribution Date, the "Record Date" will be the last business
day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs.
Each such distribution will be made by wire transfer in immediately available
funds to the account specified by the Certificateholder at a bank or other
entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder has
provided the Paying Agent and Trustee with wiring instructions no less than five
business days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be
in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions) and
is the registered owner of Certificates with an aggregate initial Certificate
Balance or Notional Amount, as the case may be, of at least $5,000,000, or
otherwise by check mailed to such Certificateholder. The final distribution on
any Certificate will be made in like manner, but 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.
The Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and
maintained, one or more accounts (collectively, the "Certificate Account") as
described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Servicer is required to
deposit in the Certificate Account on a daily basis (and in no event later than
the business day following receipt in available funds) all payments and
collections due after the Cut-off
S-46
<PAGE>
Date and other amounts received or advanced with respect to the Mortgage
Loans, (including, without limitation, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds
and Liquidation Proceeds) and will be permitted to make withdrawals therefrom
as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The Paying Agent will establish and maintain an account (the "Distribution
Account") in the name of the Paying Agent and for the benefit of the
Certificateholders. On each Distribution Date, the Paying Agent will apply
amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account (which will include all funds
that were remitted by the Servicer from the Certificate Account plus, among
other things, any P&I Advances) generally to make distributions of interest and
principal from the Available Distribution Amount to the Certificateholders as
described herein. Each of the Certificate Account and the Distribution Account
will conform to certain eligibility requirements set forth in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.
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 the Mortgage Loans and
any REO Properties that is on deposit in the Certificate Account and the
Distribution Account as of the business day preceding the related Servicer
Remittance Date, exclusive of:
(i) all Monthly Payments collected but due on a Due Date subsequent
to the related Due Period,
(ii) all principal prepayments, Balloon Payments, Liquidation
Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds and other unscheduled
recoveries received subsequent to the related Due Period,
(iii) all amounts in the Certificate Account and Distribution
Account that are due or reimbursable to any person other than the
Certificateholders,
(iv) all Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges, and
(v) all amounts deposited in the Certificate Account and
Distribution Account in error, and
(b) all P&I Advances made by the Servicer, the Trustee or Fiscal
Agent, as applicable, with respect to such Distribution Date. See
"Description of the Pooling Agreements--Certificate Account" in the
Prospectus.
The "Due Period" for each Distribution Date will be the period that begins on
the second business day of the month preceding the month in which such
Distribution Date occurs and ends on the first business day of the month in
which such Distribution Date occurs. For purposes of the discussion in the
Prospectus, the Due Period is also the Prepayment Period (as defined in the
Prospectus).
Priority. On each Distribution Date, for so long as the Certificate
Balances of the Certificates have not been reduced to zero, the Paying Agent
will apply amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account, to the extent of
the Available Distribution Amount, in the following order of priority:
first, to the Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class X Certificates, pro rata
(based upon their respective entitlements to interest for such Distribution
Date), in respect of interest, up to an amount equal to the aggregate
Interest Distribution Amount for such Classes;
second, pro rata (based upon their respective entitlements to principal
for such Distribution Date) (i) to the Class P Certificates, in reduction of
the Certificate Balance thereof, an amount equal to the Class P Principal
Distribution Amount, until the Certificate Balance of such Class is reduced
to zero, and (ii) (a) to the Class A-1 Certificates, in reduction of the
Certificate Balance thereof, an amount equal to the Principal Distribution
Amount less the Class P Principal Distribution Amount, until the Certificate
Balance of such Class is reduced to zero, and (b) following reduction of the
Certificate Balance of the Class A-1 Certificates to zero, to the Class A-2
Certificates, in reduction of the Certificate Balance thereof, an amount
equal to the Principal Distribution Amount (or portion thereof remaining
after distributions on the Class A-1 Certificates on such Distribution Date)
less the Class P Principal Distribution Amount, until the Certificate Balance
of such Class is reduced to zero;
S-47
<PAGE>
third, to the Class A-l, Class A-2 and Class P Certificates, pro rata
(based upon the aggregate unreimbursed Collateral Support Deficit allocated
to each such Class), until all amounts of Collateral Support Deficit
previously allocated to such Classes, but not previously reimbursed, have
been reimbursed in full;
fourth, to the Class B Certificates, in respect of interest, up to an
amount equal to the Interest Distribution Amount for such Class;
fifth, following reduction of the Certificate Balances of the Class A
Certificates to zero, to the Class B Certificates, in reduction of the
Certificate Balance thereof, an amount equal to the Principal Distribution
Amount (or portion thereof remaining after distributions on the Class A and
Class P Certificates on such Distribution Date), until the Certificate
Balance of such Class is reduced to zero;
sixth, to the Class B Certificates, until all amounts of Collateral
Support Deficit previously allocated to the Class B Certificates, but not
previously reimbursed, have been reimbursed in full;
seventh, to the Class C Certificates, in respect of interest, up to an
amount equal to the Interest Distribution Amount for such Class;
eighth, following reduction of the Certificate Balances of the Class A and
Class B Certificates to zero, to the Class C Certificates, in reduction of
the Certificate Balance thereof, an amount equal to the Principal
Distribution Amount (or portion thereof remaining after distributions on the
Class A, Class P and Class B Certificates on such Distribution Date), until
the Certificate Balance of such Class is reduced to zero;
ninth, to the Class C Certificates, until all amounts of Collateral
Support Deficit previously allocated to the Class C Certificates, but not
previously reimbursed, have been reimbursed in full;
tenth, to the Class D Certificates, in respect of interest, up to an
amount equal to the Interest Distribution Amount for such Class;
eleventh, following reduction of the Certificate Balances of the Class A,
Class B and Class C Certificates to zero, to the Class D Certificates, in
reduction of the Certificate Balance thereof, an amount equal to the
Principal Distribution Amount (or portion thereof remaining after
distributions on the Class A, Class P, Class B and Class C Certificates on
such Distribution Date), until the Certificate Balance of such Class is
reduced to zero;
twelfth, to the Class D Certificates, until all amounts of Collateral
Support Deficit previously allocated to the Class D Certificates, but not
previously reimbursed, have been reimbursed in full;
thirteenth, to the Class E Certificates, in respect of interest, up to an
amount equal to the Interest Distribution Amount for such Class;
fourteenth, following reduction of the Certificate Balances of the Class
A, Class B, Class C and Class D Certificates to zero, to the Class E
Certificates, in reduction of the Certificate Balance thereof, an amount
equal to the Principal Distribution Amount (or portion thereof remaining
after distributions on the Class A, Class P, Class B, Class C and Class D
Certificates on such Distribution Date), until the Certificate Balance of
such Class is reduced to zero;
fifteenth, to the Class E Certificates, until all amounts of Collateral
Support Deficit previously allocated to the Class E Certificates, but not
previously reimbursed, have been reimbursed in full;
sixteenth, to the Class F Certificates, in respect of interest, up to an
amount equal to the Interest Distribution Amount for such Class;
seventeenth, following reduction of the Certificate Balances of the Class
A, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates to zero, to the Class F
Certificates, in reduction of the Certificate Balance thereof, an amount
equal to the Principal Distribution Amount (or portion thereof remaining
after distributions on the Class A, Class P, Class B, Class C, Class D and
Class E Certificates on such Distribution Date), until the Certificate
Balance of such Class is reduced to zero;
S-48
<PAGE>
eighteenth, to the Class F Certificates, until all amounts of Collateral
Support Deficit previously allocated to the Class F Certificates, but not
previously reimbursed, have been reimbursed in full;
nineteenth, to the Class G Certificates, in respect of interest, up to an
amount equal to the Interest Distribution Amount for such Class;
twentieth, following reduction of the Certificate Balances of the Class A,
Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E and Class F Certificates to zero, to the
Class G Certificates, in reduction of the Certificate Balance thereof, an
amount equal to the Principal Distribution Amount (or portion thereof
remaining after distributions on the Class A, Class P, Class B, Class C,
Class D, Class E and Class F Certificates on such Distribution Date), until
the Certificate Balance of such Class is reduced to zero;
twenty-first, to the Class G Certificates, until all amounts of Collateral
Support Deficit previously allocated to the Class G Certificates, but not
previously reimbursed, have been reimbursed in full;
twenty-second, to the Class H Certificates, in respect of interest, up to
an amount equal to the Interest Distribution Amount for such Class;
twenty-third, following reduction of the Certificate Balances of the Class
A, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F and Class G Certificates to
zero, to the Class H Certificates, in reduction of the Certificate Balance
thereof, an amount equal to the Principal Distribution Amount (or portion
thereof remaining after distributions on the Class A, Class P, Class B, Class
C, Class D, Class E, Class F and Class G Certificates on such Distribution
Date), until the Certificate Balance of such Class is reduced to zero;
twenty-fourth, to the Class H Certificates, until all amounts of
Collateral Support Deficit previously allocated to the Class H Certificates,
but not previously reimbursed, have been reimbursed in full; and
twenty-fifth, to the Class R Certificates, the amount, if any, of the
Available Distribution Amount remaining in the Distribution Account with
respect to such Distribution Date.
Reimbursement of previously allocated Collateral Support Deficit 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.
Notwithstanding the distribution priority second set forth above, on and
after the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Balances of the
Subordinate Certificates have all been reduced to zero (such date, the
"Cross-Over Date"), the Principal Distribution Amount will be distributed,
pro rata (based upon their respective Certificate Balances), among the Class P
Certificates and the Classes of Class A Certificates without regard to the
priorities set forth above.
Pass-Through Rates. The Pass-Through Rate applicable to each Class of
Offered Certificates (other than the Class P and Class X Certificates) for
any Distribution Date will equal the rate per annum specified on the cover of
this Prospectus Supplement. Interest will accrue for each Class of
Certificates (other than the Class P Certificates) during the related
Interest Accrual Period. The Pass-Through Rate for the Class X Certificates
(the "Class X Pass-Through Rate") for any Distribution Date will equal the
excess, if any, of (a) the weighted average of the applicable Net Mortgage Rates
for the Mortgage Loans, weighted on the basis of their respective Stated
Principal Balances as of the preceding Distribution Date (after giving effect to
the distribution of principal on such Distribution Date) or, in the case of the
first Distribution Date, the Cut-off Date, over (b) the weighted average of the
Pass-Through Rates on all of the other Certificates (assuming a Pass-Through
Rate of 0.00% per annum with respect to the Class P Certificates), weighted on
the basis of their respective Certificate Balances immediately prior to such
Distribution Date. The Class X Pass-Through Rate for the first Distribution Date
is expected to be approximately 0.8207% per annum. The Class P Certificates will
not have a Pass-Through Rate or entitle holders to distributions of interest.
The "Net Mortgage Rate" for each Mortgage Loan is equal to the related
Mortgage Rate in effect from time to time less the Aggregate Servicing Fee Rate.
Interest Distribution Amount. The "Interest Distribution Amount" of any
Class of Certificates (other than the Class P and Class R Certificates) for any
Distribution Date is an amount equal to all Distributable Certificate
Interest in respect of such Class for such Distribution Date and, to the
extent not previously paid, for all prior Distribution Dates.
S-49
<PAGE>
The "Distributable Certificate Interest" in respect of each Class of
Certificates (other than the Class P and Class R Certificates) for each
Distribution Date is equal to one month's interest at the Pass-Through Rate
applicable to such Class of Certificates for such Distribution Date accrued
for the related Interest Accrual Period on the related Certificate Balance or
Notional Amount, as the case may be, outstanding immediately prior to such
Distribution Date. Distributable Certificate Interest will be calculated on
the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.
Principal Distribution Amount. The "Principal Distribution Amount" for any
Distribution Date is an amount equal to the sum of (a) the Principal Shortfall
for such Distribution Date, (b) the Scheduled Principal Distribution Amount for
such Distribution Date and (c) the Unscheduled Principal Distribution Amount for
such Distribution Date.
The "Scheduled Principal Distribution Amount" for each Distribution Date will
equal the aggregate of the principal portions of (a) all Monthly Payments
(excluding Balloon Payments) due during or, if and to the extent not
previously received or advanced and distributed to Certificateholders on a
preceding Distribution Date, prior to, the related Due Period and all Assumed
Scheduled Payments for the related Due Period, in each case to the extent
paid by the related borrower as of the business day preceding the related
Servicer Remittance Date or advanced by the Servicer, the Trustee or the
Fiscal Agent, as applicable, and (b) all Balloon Payments to the extent
received during the related Due Period, and to the extent not included in
clause (a) above. The Scheduled Principal Distribution Amount from time to
time will include all late payments of principal made by a borrower,
including late payments in respect of a delinquent Balloon Payment,
regardless of the timing of such late payments, except to the extent such
late payments are otherwise reimbursable to the Servicer, the Trustee or the
Fiscal Agent, as the case may be, for prior Advances.
The "Unscheduled Principal Distribution Amount" for each Distribution Date
will equal the aggregate of: (a) all voluntary prepayments of principal received
on the Mortgage Loans during the related Due Period; and (b) any other
collections (exclusive of payments by borrowers) received on the Mortgage Loans
and any REO Properties during the related Due Period, whether in the form of
Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds, net income, rents,
and profits from REO Property or otherwise, that were identified and applied
by the Servicer as recoveries of previously unadvanced principal of the
related Mortgage Loan.
The "Assumed Scheduled Payment" for any Due Period and with respect to any
Mortgage Loan that is delinquent in respect of its Balloon Payment (including
any REO Loan as to which the Balloon Payment would have been past due), is an
amount equal to the sum of (a) the principal portion of the Monthly Payment that
would have been due on such Mortgage Loan on the related Due Date based on the
constant payment required by the related Mortgage Note or the original
amortization schedule thereof (as calculated with interest at the related
Mortgage Rate), if applicable, assuming such Balloon Payment has not become due,
after giving effect to any modification, and (b) interest on the Stated
Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan at the applicable Mortgage Rate (net of
the rate at which the Servicing Fee is calculated).
For purposes of determining distributions in respect of principal on the
Class P Certificates, each Discount Mortgage Loan will be assigned a fraction
referred to herein as the "Class P Fraction", the numerator of which is 7.600%
per annum minus the Net Mortgage Rate for such Discount Mortgage Loan, and the
denominator of which is 7.600% per annum. The "Class P Principal Distribution
Amount" for any Distribution Date will equal the sum of (a) the Class P
Principal Shortfall for such Distribution Date, plus (b) the sum for all such
Discount Mortgage Loans of the products of (i) the excess, if any, of the Stated
Principal Balance of such Discount Mortgage Loan as of the Distribution Date
immediately prior to such Distribution Date over the Stated Principal Balance of
such Discount Mortgage Loan as of such Distribution Date, multiplied by (ii) the
Class P Fraction for each such Discount Mortgage Loan.
For purposes of the foregoing definitions of Principal Distribution Amount
and Class P Principal Distribution Amount, the term "Principal Shortfall" for
any Distribution Date means the amount, if any, by which (i) the Principal
Distribution Amount for the preceding Distribution Date, exceeds (ii) the
aggregate amount distributed in respect of principal on the Class A, Class P,
Class B, Class C, Class D,
S-50
<PAGE>
Class E, Class F, Class G and Class H Certificates on such preceding
Distribution Date, and the term "Class P Principal Shortfall" for any
Distribution Date means the amount, if any, by which (i) the Class P Principal
Distribution Amount for the preceding Distribution Date exceeded (ii) the
aggregate amount distributed in respect of principal on the Class P
Certificates for such preceding Distribution Date. There will be no Principal
Shortfall or Class P Principal Shortfall on the first Distribution Date.
Certain Calculations with Respect to Individual Mortgage Loans. The Stated
Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan outstanding at any time represents
the principal balance of such Mortgage Loan ultimately due and payable to the
Certificateholders. The "Stated Principal Balance" of each Mortgage Loan
will initially equal the Cut-off Date Balance thereof and, on each
Distribution Date, will be reduced by the portion of the Principal
Distribution Amount for such date that is attributable to such Mortgage Loan.
The Stated Principal Balance of a Mortgage Loan may also be reduced in
connection with any forced reduction of the actual unpaid principal balance
thereof imposed by a court presiding over a bankruptcy proceeding in which
the related borrower is the debtor. See "Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage
Loans--Bankruptcy Laws" in the Prospectus. If any Mortgage Loan is paid in
full or such Mortgage Loan (or any Mortgaged Property acquired in respect
thereof) is otherwise liquidated, then, as of the first Distribution Date
that follows the end of the Due Period in which such payment in full or
liquidation occurred and notwithstanding that a loss may have occurred in
connection with any such liquidation, the Stated Principal Balance of such
Mortgage Loan shall be zero.
For purposes of calculating distributions on, and allocations of
Collateral Support Deficit to, the Certificates, as well as for purposes of
calculating the amount of Aggregate Servicing Fees payable each month, each
REO Property will be treated as if there exists with respect thereto an
outstanding mortgage loan (an "REO Loan"), and all references to "Mortgage
Loan", "Mortgage Loans" and "Mortgage Pool" herein and in the Prospectus, when
used in such context, will be deemed to also be references to or to also
include, as the case may be, any REO Loans. Each REO Loan will generally be
deemed to have the same characteristics as its actual predecessor Mortgage Loan,
including the same fixed Mortgage Rate (and, accordingly, the same Net Mortgage
Rate) and the same unpaid principal balance and Stated Principal Balance.
Amounts due on such predecessor Mortgage Loan, including any portion thereof
payable or reimbursable to the Servicer, will continue to be "due" in respect of
the REO Loan; and amounts received in respect of the related REO Property, net
of payments to be made, or reimbursement to the Servicer or the Special Servicer
for payments previously advanced, in connection with the operation and
management of such property, generally will be applied by the Servicer as if
received on the predecessor Mortgage Loan.
ALLOCATION OF PREPAYMENT PREMIUMS AND YIELD MAINTENANCE CHARGES
On any Distribution Date, Prepayment Premiums collected during the related
Due Period will be distributed by the Paying Agent to the holders of the
Classes of Offered Certificates (other than the Class P Certificates) as
follows: to each of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E
Certificates, for each such Class an amount equal to the product of (a) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the amount distributed as principal to
such Class on such Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the
total amount distributed as principal to all Classes of Certificates on such
Distribution Date, (b) 25%, and (c) the total amount of Prepayment Premiums
collected during the related Due Period. Any Prepayment Premiums collected
during the related Due Period remaining after such distributions will be
distributed to the holders of the Class X Certificates.
On any Distribution Date, Yield Maintenance Charges collected during the
related Due Period will be distributed by the Paying Agent on the Classes of
Offered Certificates (other than the Class P Certificates) as follows: to
each of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates, for
each such Class an amount equal to the product of (a) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the amount distributed as principal to such Class on
such Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the total amount
distributed as principal to all Classes of Certificates on such Distribution
Date, (b) the Base Interest Fraction for the related principal prepayment and
such Class of Offered Certificates and (c) the
S-51
<PAGE>
aggregate amount of Yield Maintenance Charges collected on such principal
prepayment during the related Due Period. Any Yield Maintenance Charges
collected during the related Due Period remaining after such distributions
will be distributed to the holders of the Class X Certificates.
The "Base Interest Fraction" with respect to any principal prepayment on any
Mortgage Loan and with respect to any Class of Offered Certificates (other than
the Class X Certificates) is a fraction (A) whose numerator is the greater of
(x) zero and (y) the difference between the Pass-Through Rate on such Class of
Offered Certificates and the Yield Rate used in calculating the Yield
Maintenance Charge with respect to such principal prepayment and (B) whose
denominator is the difference between the Mortgage Rate on the related Mortgage
Loan and the Yield Rate used in calculating the Yield Maintenance Charge with
respect to such principal prepayment; provided, however, that under no
circumstances shall the Base Interest Fraction be greater than one. If such
Yield Rate is greater than the Mortgage Rate on the related Mortgage Loan, then
the Base Interest Fraction shall equal zero.
No Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges will be distributed to
holders of the Class P, Class F, Class G, Class H or Class R Certificates;
instead, after the Certificate Principal Balances of the Class A, Class B,
Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates have been reduced to zero, all
Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges will be distributed to
holders of the Class X Certificates.
For a description of Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges,
see "Description of the Mortgage Pool--Certain Terms and Conditions of the
Mortgage Loans--Prepayment Provisions" herein. See also "Certain Legal
Aspects of the Mortgage Loans--Default Interest and Limitations on
Prepayments" in the Prospectus regarding the enforceability of Yield
Maintenance Charges and Prepayment Premiums.
ASSUMED FINAL DISTRIBUTION DATE; RATED FINAL DISTRIBUTION DATE
The "Assumed Final Distribution Date" with respect to any Class of
Offered Certificates is the Distribution Date on which the aggregate
Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, as the case may be, of such Class of
Certificates would be reduced to zero based on the assumptions set forth
below. Such Distribution Date shall in each case be as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
CLASS DESIGNATION ASSUMED FINAL DISTRIBUTION DATE
- - --------------------- -----------------------------------
<S> <C>
Class A-1 ............ December 18, 2005
Class A-2 ............ March 18, 2006
Class P .............. March 18, 2006
Class X .............. May 18, 2019
Class B .............. April 18, 2006
Class C .............. May 18, 2006
Class D .............. June 18, 2006
Class E .............. June 18, 2006
</TABLE>
The Assumed Final Distribution Dates set forth above were calculated
without regard to any delays in the collection of Balloon Payments and
without regard to a reasonable liquidation time with respect to any Mortgage
Loans that may become delinquent. Accordingly, in the event of defaults on
the Mortgage Loans, the actual final Distribution Date for one or more
Classes of the Offered Certificates may be later, and could be substantially
later, than the related Assumed Final Distribution Date(s).
In addition, the Assumed Final Distribution Dates set forth above were
calculated on the basis of a 0% CPR. Since the rate of payment (including
prepayments) of the Mortgage Loans may exceed the scheduled rate of payments,
and could exceed such scheduled rate by a substantial amount, the actual
final Distribution Date for one or more Classes of the Offered Certificates
may be earlier, and could be substantially earlier, than the related Assumed
Final Distribution Date(s). The rate of payments (including prepayments) on
the Mortgage Loans will depend on the characteristics of the Mortgage Loans,
as well as on the prevailing level of interest rates and other economic
factors, and no assurance can be given as to actual payment experience.
Finally, the Assumed Distribution Dates were calculated assuming that there
would not be an early termination of the Trust Fund.
S-52
<PAGE>
The "Rated Final Distribution Date" for each Class of Offered
Certificates will be July 18, 2028, the first Distribution Date after the
24th month following the end of the amortization term for the Mortgage Loan
that, as of the Cut-off Date, has the longest remaining amortization term.
SUBORDINATION; ALLOCATION OF COLLATERAL SUPPORT DEFICIT
The rights of holders of the Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F ,
Class G and Class H 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 Senior Certificates. Moreover, to the extent described herein, the rights
of the holders of the Class H Certificates will be subordinated to the rights of
the holders of the Class G Certificates, the rights of the holders of the
Class H and Class G Certificates will be subordinated to the rights of the
holders of the Class F Certificates, the rights of the holders of the Class
F, Class G and Class H Certificates will be subordinated to the rights of the
holders of the Class E Certificates, the rights of the holders of the Class
E, Class F, Class G and Class H Certificates will be subordinated to the
rights of the holders of the Class D Certificates, the rights of the holders
of the Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G and Class H Certificates will be
subordinated to the rights of the holders of the Class C Certificates, and
the rights of the holders of the Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G
and Class H Certificates will be subordinated to the rights of the holders of
the Class B Certificates. This subordination is intended to enhance the
likelihood of timely receipt by the holders of the Senior Certificates (other
than the Class P Certificates) of the full amount of all interest payable in
respect of the Senior Certificates on each Distribution Date, and the
ultimate receipt by the holders of the Class A and Class P Certificates of
principal in an amount equal to, in each case, the entire Certificate Balance
of such Class 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 Certificates, the holders of the Class C
Certificates, the holders of the Class D Certificates and the holders of the
Class E Certificates of the full amount of interest payable in respect of
such Classes of Certificates on each Distribution Date, and the ultimate
receipt by the holders of the Class B Certificates, the holders of the Class
C Certificates, the holders of the Class D Certificates and the holders of
the Class E Certificates of principal equal to, in each case, the entire
Certificate Balance of such Class of Certificates. The protection afforded to
the holders of the Class E Certificates by means of the subordination of the
Non-Offered Certificates that are Subordinate Certificates (the "Non-Offered
Subordinate Certificates"), to the holders of the Class D Certificates by the
subordination of the Class E Certificates and the Non-Offered Subordinate
Certificates, to the holders of the Class C Certificates by means of the
subordination of the Class D and Class E Certificates and the Non-Offered
Subordinate Certificates, to the holders of the Class B Certificates by means of
the subordination of the Class C, Class D, and Class E Certificates and the
Non-Offered Subordinate Certificates and to the holders of the Senior
Certificates by means of the subordination of the Subordinate Certificates, will
be accomplished by the application of the Available Distribution Amount on each
Distribution Date in accordance with the order of priority described under
"--Distributions" above and by the allocation of Collateral Support Deficits in
the manner described below. No other form of credit support will be available
for the benefit of the holders of the Offered Certificates.
Allocation to the Class A Certificates (unless the Cross-Over Date has
occurred, first to the Class A-1 Certificates, and then to the Class A-2
Certificates), for so long as they are outstanding, of the entire Principal
Distribution Amount for each Distribution Date (less the Class P Distribution
Amount for each Distribution Date) will have the effect of reducing the
aggregate Certificate Balance of the Class A Certificates at a
proportionately faster rate than the rate at which the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool will reduce. Thus, as principal is
distributed to the holders of such Class A Certificates, the percentage
interest in the Trust Fund evidenced by such Class A Certificates will be
decreased (with a corresponding increase in the percentage interest in the
Trust Fund evidenced by the Subordinate Certificates), thereby increasing,
relative to their respective Certificate Balances, the subordination afforded
such Class A Certificates by the Subordinate Certificates.
Following retirement of the Class A Certificates, the successive
allocation on each Distribution Date of the Principal Distribution Amount
(less the portion thereof allocated to the Class P Certificates) to the Class
B Certificates, the Class C Certificates, the Class D Certificates and the
Class E Certificates, in that
S-53
<PAGE>
order, in each case for so long as they are outstanding, will provide a
similar benefit to each such Class of Certificates as to the relative amount
of subordination afforded by the outstanding Classes of Certificates (other
than the Class X, Class P and the Residual Certificates) with later
alphabetical Class designations.
Holders of the Subordinate Certificates may receive principal
distributions prior to the date on which the Certificate Balance of the Class
P Certificates has been reduced to zero.
On each Distribution Date, immediately following the distributions to be
made to the Certificateholders on such date, the Paying Agent is to calculate
the amount, if any, by which (i) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of
the Mortgage Loans expected to be outstanding immediately following such
Distribution Date is less than (ii) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the
Certificates after giving effect to distributions of principal on such
Distribution Date (any such deficit, "Collateral Support Deficit"). The Paying
Agent will be required to allocate any such Collateral Support Deficit among the
respective Classes of Certificates as follows: to the Class H, Class G, Class
F, Class E, Class D, Class C and Class B Certificates in that order, and in
each case until the remaining Certificate Balance of such Class has been
reduced to zero. Following the reduction of the Certificate Balances of all
such Classes to zero, the Paying Agent will be required to allocate any such
Collateral Support Deficit among the Class P Certificates and the Classes of
Class A Certificates, pro rata (based upon their respective Certificate
Balances), until the remaining Certificate Balances of such Classes have been
reduced to zero. Any Collateral Support Deficit allocated to a Class of
Certificates will be allocated among respective Certificates of such Class in
proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced thereby.
In general, Collateral Support Deficits could result from the occurrence
of: (i) losses and other shortfalls on or in respect of the Mortgage Loans,
including as a result of defaults and delinquencies thereon, Nonrecoverable
Advances made in respect thereof, the payment to the Special Servicer of any
compensation as described in "Servicing of the Mortgage Loans--Servicing and
Other Compensation and Payment of Expenses" herein, and the payment of
interest on Advances and certain servicing expenses; and (ii) certain
unanticipated, non-Mortgage Loan specific expenses of the Trust Fund,
including certain reimbursements to the Trustee and the Fiscal Agent as
described under "Description of the Pooling Agreements--Certain Matters
Regarding the Trustee" in the Prospectus, certain reimbursements to the
Servicer and the Depositor as described under "Description of the Pooling
Agreements--Certain Matters Regarding the Servicer and the Depositor" in the
Prospectus, and certain federal, state and local taxes, and certain
tax-related expenses, payable out of the Trust Fund as described under
"Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences--Federal Income Tax Consequences for
REMIC Certificates" and "--Taxes That May Be Imposed on the REMIC Pool" in
the Prospectus. Accordingly, the allocation of Collateral Support Deficit as
described above will constitute an allocation of losses and other shortfalls
experienced by the Trust Fund.
A Class of Offered Certificates will be considered outstanding until its
Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, as the case may be, is reduced to
zero; provided, however, that reimbursement of any previously allocated
Collateral Support Deficit may thereafter be made to such Class.
ADVANCES
On the business day immediately preceding each Distribution Date (the
"Servicer Remittance Date"), the Servicer will be obligated, subject to the
recoverability determination described below, 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, certain funds held in the
Certificate Account that are not required to be part of the Available
Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date, in an amount equal to (but
subject to reduction as described in the following paragraph) the aggregate of:
(i) all Monthly Payments (net of the related Servicing Fee), other than Balloon
Payments, which were due on the Mortgage Loans during the related Due Period and
delinquent (or not advanced by any subservicer) as of the business day
preceding such Servicer Remittance Date; and (ii) in the case of each
Mortgage Loan delinquent in respect of its Balloon Payment as of the end of
the related Due Period (including any REO Loan as to which the Balloon
Payment would have been past due), an amount equal to the Assumed Scheduled
Payment therefor. The Servicer's obligations to make P&I Advances in respect
of any
S-54
<PAGE>
Mortgage Loan or REO Property will continue through liquidation of such
Mortgage Loan or disposition of such REO Property, as the case may be. To the
extent the Servicer fails to make a P&I Advance that it is required to make
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trustee will make such
required P&I Advance pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the
extent that the Trustee fails to make a P&I Advance that it is required to
make under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Fiscal Agent will make
such required P&I Advance.
The amount required to be advanced in respect of delinquent Monthly
Payments or Assumed Scheduled Payments on a Mortgage Loan with respect to any
Distribution Date that has been subject to an Appraisal Reduction Event will
equal the amount that would be required to be advanced by the Servicer
without giving effect to the Appraisal Reduction less any Appraisal Reduction
Amount with respect to such Mortgage Loan for such Distribution Date. None of
the Servicer, the Trustee or the Fiscal Agent will be required to make a P&I
Advance for default interest, Yield Maintenance Charges or Prepayment
Premiums.
In addition to P&I Advances, the Servicer will also be obligated (subject
to the limitations described herein) to make advances ("Servicing Advances"
and, collectively with P&I Advances, "Advances") in connection with the
servicing and administration of any Mortgage Loan in respect of which a default,
delinquency or other unanticipated event has occurred or is reasonably
foreseeable or in connection with servicing and administration of any Mortgaged
Property or REO Property, to pay delinquent real estate taxes, assessments and
hazard insurance premiums and to cover other similar costs and expenses
necessary to preserve the priority of or enforce the related Mortgage Loan
documents or to protect and maintain the related Mortgaged Property. To the
extent that the Servicer fails to make a Servicing Advance that it is required
to make under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trustee will make such
required Servicing Advance pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To
the extent the Trustee fails to make a Servicing Advance that it is required to
make under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Fiscal Agent will make such
required Servicing Advance.
The Servicer, the Trustee or the Fiscal Agent, as applicable, will be
entitled to recover any Advance made out of its own funds from any amounts
collected in respect of the Mortgage Loan as to which such Advance was made,
whether in the form of late payments, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds,
Liquidation Proceeds or otherwise from the Mortgage Loan ("Related Proceeds").
Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Servicer, the Trustee or the
Fiscal Agent will be obligated to make any Advance that it determines in its
reasonable good faith judgment would, if made, not be recoverable (including
interest thereon) out of Related Proceeds (a "Nonrecoverable Advance"), and
the Servicer, the Trustee or the Fiscal Agent will be entitled to recover any
Advance that it so determines to be a Nonrecoverable Advance out of general
funds on deposit in the Certificate Account. The Trustee and the Fiscal Agent
will be entitled to rely conclusively on any non-recoverability determination of
the Servicer. Nonrecoverable Advances will represent a portion of the losses to
be borne by the Certificateholders. See "Description of the Certificates--
Advances in Respect of Delinquencies" and "Description of the Pooling
Agreements-- Certificate Account" in the Prospectus.
In connection with its recovery of any Advance, each of the Servicer, the
Trustee and the Fiscal Agent will be entitled to be paid, out of any amounts
then on deposit in the Certificate Account, interest at the Prime Rate (the
"Reimbursement Rate") accrued on the amount of such Advance from the date made
to but not including the date of reimbursement. The "Prime Rate" shall
be the rate, for any day, set forth as such in The Wall Street Journal, New
York edition.
Each Distribution Date Statement delivered by the Paying Agent to the
Certificateholders will contain information relating to the amounts of
Advances made with respect to the related Distribution Date. See "Description
of the Certificates--Reports to Certificateholders; Certain Available
Information" herein and "Description of Certificates--Reports to
Certificateholders" in the Prospectus.
APPRAISAL REDUCTIONS
After an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred, an Appraisal Reduction
will be calculated. An "Appraisal Reduction Event" will occur on the
earliest of (i) the third anniversary of the date on which
S-55
<PAGE>
an extension of the maturity date of a Mortgage Loan becomes effective as a
result of a modification of such Mortgage Loan by the Special Servicer, which
extension does not change the amount of Monthly Payments on the Mortgage
Loan, (ii) 120 days after an uncured delinquency occurs in respect of a
Mortgage Loan, (iii) the date on which a reduction in the amount of Monthly
Payments on a Mortgage Loan, or a change in any other material economic term
of the Mortgage Loan (other than an extension of its maturity), becomes
effective as a result of a modification of such Mortgage Loan by the Special
Servicer, (iv) 60 days after a receiver has been appointed, (v) 60 days after
a borrower declares bankruptcy and (vi) immediately after a Mortgage Loan
becomes an REO Loan. The "Appraisal Reduction" for any Distribution Date and for
any Mortgage Loan as to which any Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred will be
an amount equal to the excess of (a) the outstanding Stated Principal Balance of
such Mortgage Loan over (b) the excess of (i) 90% of the appraised value of the
related Mortgaged Property as determined by one or more independent MAI
appraisals (the costs of which shall be paid by the Servicer as an Advance) over
(ii) the sum of (A) to the extent not previously advanced by the Servicer, the
Trustee or the Fiscal Agent, all unpaid interest on such Mortgage Loan at a per
annum rate equal to the Mortgage Rate, (B) all unreimbursed Advances and
interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate in respect of such Mortgage Loan and
(C) all currently due and unpaid real estate taxes and assessments and insurance
premiums and all other amounts due and unpaid under the Mortgage Loan (which
tax, premiums and other amounts have not been the subject of an Advance by the
Servicer and/or for which funds have not been escrowed). Within 60 days after
the Appraisal Reduction Event, the Special Servicer will be required to obtain
an independent MAI appraisal; provided, however, that with respect to an
Appraised Reduction Event described in clause (ii) the Special Servicer will
be required to obtain such appraisal within the 120-day period set forth in
such clause (ii). On the first Determination Date occurring on or after the
delivery of such MAI appraisal, the Special Servicer will be required to
calculate and report to the Servicer, the Paying Agent and the Trustee the
Appraisal Reduction to take into account such appraisal. The "Determination
Date" for each Distribution Date is the 11th day of the month in which such
Distribution Date occurs or, if any such 11th day is not a business day, then
the immediately preceding business day.
As a result of calculating one or more Appraisal Reductions, the amount of
any required P&I Advance will be reduced by an amount equal to the Appraisal
Reduction Amount, which will have the effect of reducing the amount of
interest available to the most subordinate Class of Certificates then
outstanding (i.e., first to the Class H Certificates, then to the Class G
Certificates, then to the Class F Certificates, then to the Class E
Certificates, then to the Class D Certificates, then to the Class C
Certificates and then to the Class B Certificates). See "--Advances" above.
The "Appraisal Reduction Amount" for any Distribution Date shall equal the
product of (i) the applicable per annum Pass-Through Rate on the Class of
Certificates to which the Appraisal Reduction is allocated, and (ii) the sum of
all Appraisal Reductions with respect to such Distribution Date. In addition,
Appraisal Reductions will be allocated to the most subordinate Class of
Certificates then outstanding (i.e., first to the Class H Certificates, then to
the Class G Certificates, then to the Class F Certificates, then to the Class E
Certificates, then to the Class D Certificates, then to the Class C Certificates
and then to the Class B Certificates) for purposes of determining Voting Rights
and the identity of the Controlling Class. See "--Voting Rights" below and
"Servicing of the Mortgage Loans--General" herein.
With respect to each Mortgage Loan as to which an Appraisal Reduction has
occurred (unless such Mortgage Loan has become a Corrected Mortgage Loan and
has remained current for twelve consecutive Monthly Payments, and with
respect to which no other Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred with respect
thereto during the preceding twelve months), the Special Servicer is
required, within 30 days of each anniversary of the related Appraisal
Reduction Event, to order an appraisal (which may be an update of a prior
appraisal), the cost of which shall be an expense of the Trust Fund. Based
upon such appraisal, the Special Servicer shall redetermine and report to the
Paying Agent the amount of the Appraisal Reduction with respect to such
Mortgage Loan.
With respect to each Mortgage Loan as to which an Appraisal Reduction has
occurred and which has become current and has remained current for twelve
consecutive Monthly Payments, and with respect to which no other Appraisal
Reduction Event has occurred and is continuing, the Special Servicer may
S-56
<PAGE>
within 30 days of the date of such twelfth Monthly Payment, order an
appraisal (which may be an update of a prior appraisal), the cost of which
shall be an expense of the Trust Fund. Based upon such appraisal, the Special
Servicer shall redetermine and report to the Paying Agent the amount of the
Appraisal Reduction with respect to such Mortgage Loan.
REPORTS TO CERTIFICATEHOLDERS; CERTAIN AVAILABLE INFORMATION
On each Distribution Date, the Paying Agent will be required to forward by
mail to each holder of a Certificate, the Underwriters and a financial market
publisher (which initially will be Bloomberg, L.P.) a statement (a "Distribution
Date Statement") setting forth, among other things: (i) the amount of the
distribution on such Distribution Date to the holders of such Class of
Certificates in reduction of the Certificate Balance thereof; (ii) the amount of
the distribution on such Distribution Date to the holders of such Class of
Certificates allocable to Distributable Certificate Interest; (iii) the
aggregate amount of P&I Advances made in respect of such Distribution Date; (iv)
the aggregate amount of compensation paid to the Trustee and servicing
compensation paid to the Servicer during the Due Period for such Distribution
Date; (v) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and any
REO Loans outstanding immediately before and immediately after such Distribution
Date; (vi) the number, aggregate principal balance, weighted average remaining
term to maturity and weighted average Mortgage Rate of the Mortgage Loans as of
the end of the related Due Period for such Distribution Date; (vii) the number
and aggregate principal balance of Mortgage Loans (A) delinquent one month, (B)
delinquent two months, (C) delinquent three or more months, and (D) as to which
foreclosure proceedings have been commenced; (viii) the value of any REO
Property included in the Trust Fund as of the end of the related Due Period
for such Distribution Date, based on the most recent appraisal or valuation;
(ix) the Available Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date; (x) the
amount of the distribution on such Distribution Date to the holders of such
Class of Certificates allocable to (A) Prepayment Premiums and (B) Yield
Maintenance Charges; (xi) the Pass-Through Rate for such Class of
Certificates for such Distribution Date and the next succeeding Distribution
Date; (xii) the Scheduled Principal Distribution Amount and the Unscheduled
Principal Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date; (xiii) the
Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, as the case may be, of each Class of
Certificates immediately before and immediately after such Distribution Date,
separately identifying any reduction therein as a result of the allocation of
any Collateral Support Deficit on such Distribution Date; (xiv) the fraction,
expressed as a decimal carried to eight places, the numerator of which is the
then related Certificate Balance, and the denominator of which is the related
initial aggregate Certificate Balance, for each Class of Certificates (other
than the Residual Certificates) immediately following such Distribution Date;
(xv) the amount of any Appraisal Reductions effected in connection with such
Distribution Date on a loan-by-loan basis, the total Appraisal Reduction
effected in connection with such Distribution Date, the total Appraisal
Reduction Amounts as of such Distribution Date on a loan-by-loan basis; (xvi)
the number and related principal balances of any Mortgage Loans extended or
modified during the related Due Period; and (xvii) the amount of any
remaining unpaid interest shortfalls for such Class as of such Distribution
Date. In the case of information furnished pursuant to clauses (i), (ii), (x)
and (xvii) above, the amounts shall be expressed as a dollar amount in the
aggregate for all Certificates of each applicable Class and per Definitive
Certificate.
In addition, within a reasonable period of time after the end of each
calendar year, the Paying Agent shall furnish to the Trustee and each person
or entity who at any time during the calendar year was a holder of a
Certificate, a statement containing the information set forth in clauses (i),
(ii) and (x) above as to the applicable Class, aggregated for such calendar
year or applicable portion thereof during which such person was a
Certificateholder, together with such other information as the Paying Agent
deems necessary or desirable, or that a Certificateholder or Certificate
Owner reasonably requests, to enable Certificateholders to prepare their tax
returns for such calendar year. Such obligation of the Paying Agent shall be
deemed to have been satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable
information shall be provided by the Paying Agent pursuant to any
requirements of the Code as from time to time are in force.
The Servicer will provide a financial market publisher, which initially
shall be Bloomberg, L.P., quarterly with certain current information with
respect to the Mortgaged Properties, including current and original net
operating income, debt service coverage ratios based upon borrowers' annual
operating statements and occupancy rates, to the extent it has received such
information from the borrowers pursuant to the related loan documents.
S-57
<PAGE>
The Pooling and Servicing Agreement requires that the Paying Agent (or
the Trustee with respect to clause (f) only) make available at its offices
primarily responsible for administration of the Trust Fund, during normal
business hours, for review by any holder of an Offered Certificate, the
Depositor, the Special Servicer, the Servicer, the Extension Adviser, any
Rating Agency or any other person to whom the Paying Agent believes such
disclosure is appropriate, 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 Paying Agent 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
Paying Agent 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
Servicer or the Special Servicer and delivered to the Paying Agent in respect
of each Mortgaged Property, (f) copies of the Mortgage Loan documents, (g)
any and all modifications, waivers and amendments of the terms of a Mortgage
Loan entered into by the Servicer or the Special Servicer and delivered to
the Paying Agent, and (h) any and all statements and reports delivered to, or
collected by, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, from the borrowers,
including the most recent annual property operating statements, rent rolls
and borrower financial statements, but only to the extent such statements and
reports have been delivered to the Paying Agent. Copies of any and all of the
foregoing items will be available to Certificateholders from the Paying Agent
(or the Trustee with respect to clause (f) only) upon request; however, the
Paying Agent (or the Trustee with respect to clause (f) only) will be
permitted to require payment of a sum sufficient to cover the reasonable
costs and expenses of providing such copies. Pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, the Servicer will be responsible for enforcing all
provisions of the Mortgage Loan documents relating to the submission of
financial and property information.
The Pooling and Servicing Agreement will require the Servicer and the
Paying Agent, subject to certain restrictions set forth therein, to provide
the reports available to Certificateholders set forth above, as well as
certain other information received by the Servicer or the Paying Agent, as
the case may be, to any Certificateholder, the Underwriters, any Certificate
Owner or any prospective investor identified as such by a Certificate Owner
or Underwriter, that requests such reports or information; provided that the
Servicer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will be permitted to
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover the reasonable costs and
expenses of providing copies of such reports or information. Except as
otherwise set forth in this paragraph, until such time as Definitive
Certificates are issued, notices and statements required to be mailed to
holders of Certificates will be available to Certificate Owners of Offered
Certificates only to the extent it is forwarded by or otherwise available
through DTC and its Participants. Conveyance of notices and other
communications by DTC to Participants, and by Participants to such
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. Except as otherwise set forth in this paragraph, the Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Depositor, the Paying Agent 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 Offered Certificate Registrar. The initial registered holder
of the Offered Certificates will be Cede & Co. as nominee for DTC.
VOTING RIGHTS
At all times during the term of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the
voting rights for the Certificates (the "Voting Rights") shall be
allocated among the respective Classes of Certificateholders as follows: (i)
4% in the case of the Class X Certificates, and (ii) in the case of any other
Class of Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates), a percentage
equal to the product of 96% and a fraction, the numerator of which is equal
to the aggregate Certificate Balance of such Class, in each case, determined
as of the Distribution Date immediately preceding such time, and the
denominator of which is equal to the aggregate Certificate Balance of all
Classes of Certificates, each determined as of the Distribution Date
immediately preceding such time. The Class R Certificates will not be
entitled to any Voting Rights. For purposes of determining Voting Rights, the
Certificate Balance of any Class shall be deemed to be reduced by the amount
allocated to such Class of any Appraisal Reductions related to Mortgage Loans
S-58
<PAGE>
as to which Liquidation Proceeds or other final payment has not yet been
received. Voting Rights allocated to a Class of Certificateholders shall be
allocated among such Certificateholders in proportion to the Percentage
Interests evidenced by their respective Certificates. Solely for purposes of
giving any consent, approval or waiver pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, neither the Servicer, the Special Servicer nor the Depositor will
be entitled to exercise any Voting Rights with respect to any Certificates
registered in its name, if such consent, approval or waiver would in any way
increase its compensation or limit its obligations in such capacity under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that such restrictions
will not apply to the exercise of the Special Servicer's rights as a member
of the Controlling Class.
TERMINATION; RETIREMENT OF CERTIFICATES
The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement will
terminate following 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 or (ii) the purchase of all of the assets of the
Trust Fund by the Servicer, the Special Servicer or the holder of the Class R
Certificates. Written notice of termination of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement will be given to each Certificateholder, and the final distribution
will be made only upon surrender and cancellation of the Certificates at the
office of the Certificate Registrar or other location specified in such
notice of termination.
The Servicer, the Special Servicer and the holder of the Class R
Certificates (in that order) will have the right to purchase all of the
assets of the Trust Fund. Any such purchase of all the Mortgage Loans and
other assets in the Trust Fund is required to be made at a price equal to the
sum of (i) the aggregate Purchase Price of all the Mortgage Loans (exclusive
of REO Loans) then included in the Trust Fund and (ii) the aggregate fair
market value of all REO Properties then included in the Trust Fund (which
fair market value for any REO Property may be less than the Purchase Price
for the corresponding REO Loan), as determined by an appraiser selected and
mutually agreed upon by the Servicer and the Trustee, and approved by more
than 50% of the Voting Rights of the Classes of Certificates then outstanding
other than the Class H Certificates, unless the Class H Certificates are the
only Certificates outstanding. Such purchase will effect early retirement of
the then outstanding Offered Certificates, but the right of the Servicer, the
Special Servicer or the holder of the Class R Certificates to effect such
termination is subject to the requirement that the then aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool be less than 4% of the Initial Pool
Balance.
On the final Distribution Date, the aggregate amount paid by the Servicer,
the Special Servicer or the holder of the Class R Certificates, as the case
may be, for the Mortgage Loans and other assets in the Trust Fund (if the
Trust Fund is to be terminated as a result of the purchase described in the
preceding paragraph), together with all other amounts on deposit in the
Certificate Account and not otherwise payable to a person other than the
Certificateholders (see "Description of the Pooling Agreements--Certificate
Account" in the Prospectus), will be applied generally as described above
under "--Distributions--Priority."
ANY OPTIONAL TERMINATION BY THE SPECIAL SERVICER, THE SERVICER OR THE
HOLDER OF THE CLASS R CERTIFICATES WOULD RESULT IN PREPAYMENT IN FULL OF THE
CERTIFICATES AND WOULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE YIELD OF THE CLASS X
CERTIFICATES, BECAUSE A TERMINATION WOULD HAVE AN EFFECT SIMILAR TO A
PRINCIPAL PREPAYMENT IN FULL OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS (WITHOUT, HOWEVER, THE
PAYMENT OF ANY PREPAYMENT PREMIUMS OR YIELD MAINTENANCE CHARGES) AND, AS A
RESULT, INVESTORS IN THE CLASS X CERTIFICATES AND ANY OTHER CERTIFICATES
PURCHASED AT PREMIUM MIGHT NOT FULLY RECOUP THEIR INITIAL INVESTMENT. SEE
"YIELD AND MATURITY CONSIDERATIONS" HEREIN.
THE TRUSTEE
LaSalle National Bank will act as Trustee of the Trust Fund. LaSalle
National Bank is a subsidiary of LaSalle National Corporation which is a
subsidiary of the Fiscal Agent. The corporate trust office of the Trustee
responsible for administration of the Trust is located at 135 LaSalle Street,
Suite 1740, Chicago, Illinois 60603-4017 Attention: Asset-Backed Securities
Trust Service--Chase Commercial
S-59
<PAGE>
Mortgage Securities Corp., Series 1996-1. As of December 31, 1995, the
LaSalle National Corporation had assets of approximately $15,500,000,000. The
Servicer will be responsible for payment of the compensation and expenses of
the Trustee (the "Trustee Fee") pursuant to a separate agreement between the
Servicer and the Trustee; however, the combined fees retained by the Servicer
and paid to the Trustee may not exceed the Aggregate Servicing Fees. In
addition, the Trustee will be entitled to recover from the Trust Fund all
reasonable unanticipated expenses and disbursements incurred or made by the
Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, but not including expenses incurred in the ordinary course of
performing its duties as Trustee under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
and not including any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from
its willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. 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.
THE FISCAL AGENT
ABN AMRO Bank N.V., a Netherlands banking corporation and the indirect
corporate parent of the Trustee, will act as Fiscal Agent for the Trust and
will be obligated to make any Advance required to be made, if not made, by
the Servicer and the Trustee under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
provided that the Fiscal Agent will not be obligated to make any Advance that
it deems to be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The Fiscal Agent will be entitled
(but not obligated) to rely conclusively on any determination by the Servicer
or the Trustee that an Advance, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable Advance.
The Fiscal Agent will be entitled to reimbursement for each Advance made by
it in the same manner and to the same extent as, but prior to the Servicer
and the Trustee.
The Trustee will be responsible for payment of the compensation and
expenses of the Fiscal Agent; however, the combined fees retained by the
Trustee and paid to the Fiscal Agent may not exceed the Trustee Fee. In
addition, the Fiscal Agent will be entitled to recover from the Trust Fund
all reasonable unanticipated expenses and disbursements incurred or made by
the Fiscal Agent in accordance with any of the provisions of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the reasonable
expenses and disbursements of its counsel and for all persons not regularly
in its employ), but not including expenses incurred in the ordinary course of
performing its duties as Fiscal Agent under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, and except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise
from its willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.
SERVICING OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS
GENERAL
The servicing of the Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties will be
governed by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The following summaries
describe certain provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating
to the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and any REO
Properties. The summaries do not purport to be complete and are subject, and
qualified in their entirety by reference, to the provisions of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. Reference is made to the Prospectus for additional
information regarding the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
relating to the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and any
REO Properties, provided that the information herein supersedes any contrary
information set forth in the Prospectus. See "Description of the Pooling
Agreements" in the Prospectus.
Each of the Servicer (directly or through one or more subservicers) and
the Special Servicer will be required to service and administer the Mortgage
Loans for which it is responsible. The Mortgage Loans to be sold by BSFI to
the Depositor will be sub-serviced by Mellon Mortgage Company. In addition to
the sub-servicing by Mellon Mortgage Company of the BSFI Mortgage Loans, the
Servicer may delegate and/or assign some or all of its servicing obligations
and duties with respect to some or all of the Mortgage Loans to one or more
affiliates so long as such delegation and/or assignment, in and of itself,
does not cause the qualification, withdrawal or downgrading of the
then-current ratings assigned to any Class of
S-60
<PAGE>
Certificates. Except in certain limited circumstances set forth in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Special Servicer will not be permitted
to appoint subservicers with respect to any of its servicing obligations and
duties.
The Servicer and the Special Servicer will service and administer the
Mortgage Loans for which it is responsible on behalf of the Trustee and in
the best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders (as
determined by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, in
its good faith and reasonable judgment), 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, and in
accordance with the higher of the following standards of care: (i) the same
manner in which, and with the same care, skill, prudence and diligence with
which the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, services and
administers similar mortgage loans for other third-party portfolios, giving
due consideration to the customary and usual standards of practice of prudent
institutional commercial and multifamily mortgage lenders servicing their own
mortgage loans and (ii) the same care, skill, prudence and diligence with
which the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, services and
administers mortgage loans owned by the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the
case may be, in either case exercising reasonable business judgment and
acting in accordance with applicable law, the terms of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, the respective Mortgage Loans or Specially Serviced
Mortgage Loans, as applicable, and with a view to the maximization of timely
recovery of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans or Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loans, as applicable, and the best interests of the Trust
and the Certificateholders, as determined by the Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as the case may be, in its reasonable judgment, but without regard
to: (A) any relationship that the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the
case may be, or any affiliate thereof, may have with the related borrower;
(B) the ownership of any Certificate by the Servicer or the Special Servicer,
as the case may be, or any affiliate thereof; (C) the Servicer's obligation
to make Advances, whether in respect of delinquent payments of principal
and/or interest or to cover certain servicing expenses; and (D) the
Servicer's or the Special Servicer's, as the case may be, right to receive
compensation for its services under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or
with respect to any particular transaction (the foregoing, collectively
referred to as the "Servicing Standards").
Except as otherwise described under "--Inspections; Collection of
Operating Information" below, the Servicer initially will be responsible for
the servicing and administration of the entire Mortgage Pool. With respect to
any Mortgage Loan (i) as to which a payment default has occurred at its
original maturity date, or, if the original maturity date has been extended,
at its extended maturity, (ii) as to which any Monthly Payment (other than a
Balloon Payment) is more than 60 days delinquent, (iii) as to which the
borrower has entered into or consented to bankruptcy, appointment of a
receiver or conservator or a similar insolvency proceeding, or the borrower
has become the subject of a decree or order for such a proceeding (provided
that if such appointment, decree or order is stayed or discharged, or such
consent revoked, within 60 days such Mortgage Loan shall not be considered a
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan during such period), or the related borrower
has admitted in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they
become due, (iv) as to which the Servicer shall have received notice of the
foreclosure or proposed foreclosure of any other lien on the Mortgaged
Property, or (v) as to which, in the judgment of the Servicer, a payment
default has occurred or is reasonably foreseeable and is not likely to be
cured by the borrower within 60 days, and prior to acceleration of amounts
due under the related Mortgage Note or commencement of any foreclosure or
similar proceedings, the Servicer will transfer its servicing
responsibilities to the Special Servicer, but 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 and prepare certain reports to the Certificateholders
with respect to such Mortgage Loan. If the related Mortgaged Property is
acquired in respect of any such Mortgage Loan (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. The Mortgage Loans serviced by the Special
Servicer and any Mortgage Loans that have become REO Properties are referred to
herein as the "Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans". The Servicer shall have no
responsibility for the performance by the Special Servicer of its duties
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
S-61
<PAGE>
If any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, in accordance with its original
terms or as modified in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
becomes a performing Mortgage Loan for at least 90 days (provided no
additional event of default is foreseeable in the reasonable judgment of the
Special Servicer), the Special Servicer will return servicing of such
Mortgage Loan (a "Corrected Mortgage Loan") to the Servicer.
The Special Servicer will prepare a report (an "Asset Status Report") for
each Mortgage Loan which becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan not later
than thirty (30) days after the servicing of such Mortgage Loan is transferred
to the Special Servicer. Each Asset Status Report will be delivered to the
Directing Certificateholder (as defined below) and the Rating Agencies. The
Directing Certificateholder may object to any Asset Status Report within 10
business days of receipt; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall
implement the recommended action as outlined in such Asset Status Report if
it makes an affirmative determination that such objection is not in the best
interest of all the Certificateholders. In connection with making such
affirmative determination, the Special Servicer will request a vote by all
the Certificateholders. If the Directing Certificateholder does not
disapprove an Asset Status Report within 10 business days, the related
Special Servicer shall implement the recommended action as outlined in such
Asset Status Report. If the Directing Certificateholder disapproves such
Asset Status Report and the Special Servicer has not made the affirmative
determination described above, the Special Servicer will revise such Asset
Status Report as soon as practicable thereafter, but in no event later than
30 days after such disapproval. The Special Servicer will revise such Asset
Status Report until the Directing Certificateholder fails to disapprove such
revised Asset Status Report as described above or until the Special Servicer
makes a determination that such objection is not in the best interests of the
Certificateholders.
The "Directing Certificateholder" will be the Controlling Class
Certificateholder selected by more than 50% of the Controlling Class
Certificateholders, by Certificate Balance, as certified by the Trustee from
time to time; provided, however, that (i) absent such selection, or (ii)
until a Directing Certificateholder is so selected, or (iii) upon receipt of
a notice from a majority of the Controlling Class Certificateholders, by
Certificate Balance, that a Directing Certificateholder is no longer
designated, the Controlling Class Certificateholder that owns the largest
aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class will be the Directing
Certificateholder.
A "Controlling Class Certificateholder" is each holder (or Certificate
Owner, if applicable) of a Certificate of the Controlling Class as certified
to the Trustee from time to time by such holder (or Certificate Owner).
The "Controlling Class" will be as of any time of determination the most
subordinate Class of Certificates then outstanding that has a Certificate
Balance at least equal to the lesser of (a) 1% of the Initial Pool Balance or
(b) 20% of the initial Certificate Balance of such Class, in the case of the
Class H Certificates, or 25% of the initial Certificate Balance of such Class,
in the case of any other Class. For purposes of determining identity of the
Controlling Class, the Certificate Balance of each Class shall be deemed to be
reduced by the amount allocated to such Class of any Appraisal Reductions
relating to Mortgage Loans as to which Liquidation Proceeds or other final
payment has not yet been received.
The Controlling Class as of the Closing Date will be the Class H
Certificates.
The Special Servicer will not be required to take or refrain from taking
any action pursuant to instructions from the Directing Certificateholder that
would cause it to violate applicable law, the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, including the Servicing Standards, or the REMIC Provisions.
THE SERVICER
Chemical Bank will be the Servicer and in such capacity will be
responsible for servicing the Mortgage Loans. The principal servicing offices
of the Servicer are located at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10017. As
of December 31, 1995, the Servicer had a net worth of approximately $8.18
billion and was the servicer of a portfolio of multifamily and commercial
mortgage loans, secured by properties located throughout the United States
and totalling approximately $3.418 billion in aggregate outstanding principal
amounts.

The information set forth herein concerning the Servicer has been
provided by the Servicer, and neither the Depositor nor the Underwriters make
any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of such
information.
THE SPECIAL SERVICER
Lennar Partners, Inc., a Florida corporation, will serve as the Special
Servicer and in such capacity will be responsible for servicing the Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loans. The principal executive offices of the Special
Servicer are located at 700 N.W. 107th Avenue, Suite 400, Miami, Florida
33172, and its telephone number is (305) 559-4000. The Special Servicer is a
full-service real estate company primarily involved in homebuilding, the
development and management of commercial properties and real estate-related
financial services. The Special Servicer has regional offices located across
the country including Florida, Georgia, Texas, Arizona and California. As of
May, 1996, the Special Servicer and its affiliates were managing a portfolio
including over 46,000 assets in 49 states with an original face value of over
$14 billion, approximately $11 billion of which are commercial real estate
assets. Included in this managed portfolio are $6.0 billion of commercial
real estate assets representing 20 securitization transactions, for which the
Special Servicer is the servicer or special servicer. The Special Servicer
and its affiliates own and are in the business of acquiring assets similar in
type to the assets of the Trust Fund. Accordingly, the assets of the Special
Servicer and its affiliates may, depending upon the particular circumstances,
including, the nature and location of such assets, compete with the Mortgaged
Properties for tenants, purchasers, financing and so forth.
The information set forth herein concerning the Special Servicer has been
provided by the Special Servicer, and neither the Depositor nor the
Underwriters make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or
completeness of such information.
REPLACEMENT OF THE SPECIAL SERVICER
The Special Servicer may be removed, and a successor Special Servicer
appointed, at any time by the holders of Certificates representing more than
50% of the aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class, provided
that each Rating Agency confirms in writing that such replacement of the
Special Servicer, in and of itself, will not cause a qualification,
withdrawal or downgrading of the then-current ratings assigned to any Class
of Certificates.
SERVICING AND OTHER COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES
The fees of the Servicer and the Trustee (collectively, the "Aggregate
Servicing Fees") will be payable monthly on a loan-by-loan basis from amounts
received in respect of interest on each Mortgage Loan, and will accrue at an
aggregate rate (the "Aggregate Servicing Fee Rate") equal to 0.10775% per
annum, with respect to Mortgage Loans sold to the Depositor by Chemical Bank,
and 0.17875% per annum with respect to Mortgage Loans sold to the Depositor
by BSFI, and will be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of
the related Mortgage Loan and for the same period respecting which any
related interest payment on the related Mortgage Loan is computed. In
addition to the Servicer's monthly fee constituting part of the Aggregate
Servicing Fees (the "Servicing Fee"), the Servicer will be entitled to retain,
as additional servicing compensation, (i) a percentage of all assumption and
modification fees paid by the borrowers on Mortgage Loans that are not Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loans, and one-half of the extension fees associated with the
first extension for Mortgage Loans as to which the Special Servicer has extended
the maturity of such Mortgage Loan for a period of twelve months or less and
certain other criteria are met and (ii) late payment charges and default
interest paid by the borrowers (other than on Specially Serviced Mortgage
Loans), but only to the extent such amounts are not needed to pay interest on
Advances. The Servicer also is authorized but not required to invest or direct
the investment of funds held in the Certificate Account and the Distribution
Account in Permitted Investments, and the Servicer will be entitled to retain
any interest or other income earned on such funds. The Servicer also is
entitled to retain any interest earned on any servicing escrow account to the
extent such interest is not required to be paid to the related borrowers. The
Servicer will be obligated to pay the annual fees of each Rating Agency.
S-63
<PAGE>
The principal compensation to be paid to the Special Servicer in respect
of its special servicing activities will be the Special Servicing Fee, the
Workout Fee and the Liquidation Fee. The "Special Servicing Fee" will accrue
with respect to each Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan at a rate equal to 0.250%
per annum (the "Special Servicing Fee Rate") on the basis of the same principal
amount and for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due
or deemed due on such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan is computed, and will be
payable monthly from the Trust Fund. A "Workout Fee" will in general be payable
with respect to each Corrected Mortgage Loan. As to each Corrected Mortgage
Loan, the Workout Fee will be payable out of, and will be calculated by
application of a "Workout Fee Rate" of 1.0% to, each collection of interest and
principal (including scheduled payments, prepayments, Balloon Payments and
payments at maturity) received on such Mortgage Loan for so long as it remains a
Corrected Mortgage Loan. The Workout Fee with respect to any Corrected Mortgage
Loan will cease to be payable if such loan again becomes a Specially Serviced
Mortgage Loan; provided that a new Workout Fee will become payable if and when
such Mortgage Loan again becomes a Corrected Mortgage Loan. If the Special
Servicer is terminated (other than for cause), it shall retain the right to
receive any and all Workout Fees payable with respect to Mortgage Loans that
became Corrected Mortgage Loans during the period that it acted as Special
Servicer and were still such at the time of such termination or resignation (and
the successor Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any portion of such
Workout Fees), in each case until the Workout Fee for any such loan ceases to
be payable in accordance with the preceding sentence. A "Liquidation Fee" will
be payable with respect to each Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan as to which the
Special Servicer obtains a full or discounted payoff with respect thereto
from the related borrower and, except as otherwise described below, with
respect to any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or REO Property as to which
the Special Servicer receives any Liquidation Proceeds. As to each such
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Liquidation Fee will be payable from,
and will be calculated by application of a "Liquidation Fee Rate" of 1.0% to,
the related payment or proceeds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
described above, no Liquidation Fee will be payable based on, or out of,
Liquidation Proceeds received in connection with the repurchase of any
Mortgage Loan by the Mortgage Loan Seller for a breach of representation or
warranty or for defective or deficient Mortgage Loan documentation, the
purchase of any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan by the Servicer or the
Special Servicer or the purchase of all of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties in connection with an optional termination of the Trust Fund. If,
however, Liquidation Proceeds are received with respect to any Corrected
Mortgage Loan and the Special Servicer is properly entitled to a Workout Fee,
such Workout Fee will be payable based on and out of the portion of such
Liquidation Proceeds that constitute principal and/or interest. The Special
Servicer will be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of
a percentage of all assumption fees, extension fees and modification fees
received on or with respect to Mortgage Loans and all assumption fees,
extension fees and modification fees received on or with respect to Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loans, except for those such fees to which the Servicer is
entitled as described above. The Special Servicer will also be entitled to
late payment charges and default interest paid by the borrowers on Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loans, but only to the extent such amounts are not needed
to pay interest on Advances.
Although the Servicer and the Special Servicer are each required to
service and administer the Mortgage Pool in accordance with the Servicing
Standards above and, accordingly, without regard to its right to receive
compensation under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, additional servicing
compensation in the nature of assumption and modification fees may under
certain circumstances provide the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the
case may be, with an economic disincentive to comply with such standard.
As and to the extent described herein under "Description of the
Certificates--Advances," the Servicer will be entitled to receive interest on
Advances, such interest to be paid contemporaneously with the reimbursement
of the related Advance.
Each of the Servicer and the Special Servicer generally will be required
to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing
activities under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and will not be entitled
to reimbursement therefor except as expressly provided in the Pooling and
Servicing
S-64
<PAGE>
Agreement. In connection therewith, the Servicer will be responsible for all
fees of any subservicers. See "Description of the Certificates--
Distributions--Method, Timing and Amount" herein and "Description of the
Pooling Agreements--Certificate Account" and "--Servicing Compensation and
Payment of Expenses" in the Prospectus.
MAINTENANCE OF INSURANCE
To the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan and required by the
Servicing Standards, the Servicer will use its reasonable best efforts to
cause each borrower to maintain, and if the borrower does not so maintain,
shall itself maintain to the extent available at commercially reasonable
rates (as determined by the Servicer in accordance with Servicing Standards),
a fire and hazard insurance policy with extended coverage covering the
related Mortgaged Property. The coverage of each such policy will be in an
amount that is not less than the lesser of the full replacement cost of the
improvements securing such Mortgage Loan or the outstanding principal balance
owing on such Mortgage Loan, but in any event, in an amount sufficient to
avoid the application of any co-insurance clause unless otherwise noted in
the related Mortgage Loan documents. During all such times as the Mortgaged
Property is located in an area identified as a federally designated special
flood hazard area (and such flood insurance has been made available), the
Servicer will use its reasonable best efforts to cause each borrower to
maintain (to the extent required by the related Mortgage Loan), and if the
borrower does not so maintain, shall itself maintain to the extent available
at commercially reasonable rates (as determined by the Servicer in accordance
with the Servicing Standards), a flood insurance policy in an amount
representing coverage not less than the lesser of (i) the outstanding
principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the maximum amount
of insurance which is available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of
1973, as amended, but only to the extent that the related Mortgage Loan
permits the lender to require such coverage and maintaining such coverage is
consistent with the Servicing Standards. The Special Servicer will be
required to maintain (or cause to be maintained) fire and hazard insurance on
each REO Property in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (x)
an amount necessary to avoid the application of any co-insurance clause and
(y) the full replacement cost of the improvements on such REO Property. In
addition, during all such times as the REO Property is located in an area
identified as a federally designated special flood hazard area, the Special
Servicer will cause to be maintained, to the extent available at commercially
reasonable rates (as determined by the Special Servicer in accordance with
the Servicing Standards), a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements
of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration in an
amount representing coverage not less than the maximum amount of insurance
which is available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as
amended. The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the Servicer and
the Special Servicer may satisfy their respective obligations to cause each
borrower to maintain a hazard insurance policy by maintaining a blanket
policy insuring against hazard losses on the Mortgage Loans. Any losses
incurred with respect to Mortgage Loans due to uninsured risks (including
earthquakes, mudflows and floods) or insufficient hazard insurance proceeds
may adversely affect payments to Certificateholders. Any cost incurred by the
Servicer in maintaining any such insurance policy if the borrower defaults on
its obligation to do so shall be advanced by the Servicer as a Servicing
Advance and will be charged to the related borrower. Generally, no borrower
is required by the Mortgage Loan documents to maintain earthquake insurance
on any Mortgaged Property. Any cost of maintaining any such insurance shall
be paid out of the REO Account or advanced by the Servicer as a Servicing
Advance.
Such costs may be recovered by the Servicer from reimbursements received
from the borrower or, if the borrower does not pay such amounts, as Servicing
Advances as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
No pool insurance policy, special hazard insurance policy, bankruptcy
bond, repurchase bond or certificate guarantee insurance will be maintained
with respect to the Mortgage Loans, nor will any Mortgage Loan be subject to
FHA insurance.
THE EXTENSION ADVISER
Election of the Extension Adviser. Except as provided below, the Class A,
Class P, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificateholders will be
entitled to elect a representative (the "Extension Adviser")
S-65
<PAGE>
from whom the Special Servicer will seek approval as described below.
Promptly after the Closing Date (but in no event later than 30 days after the
Closing Date), the Trustee shall hold an election to determine the Extension
Adviser. Upon (i) the receipt by the Trustee of written requests for an
election of an Extension Adviser from such holders of such Certificates
representing more than 50% of the Voting Rights of such Certificates or (ii)
the resignation or removal of the person acting as Extension Adviser, an
election of a successor Extension Adviser will be held commencing as soon as
practicable thereafter. The Extension Adviser may be removed at any time by
the written vote of holders of such Certificates representing more than 50%
of the Voting Rights of such Certificates. In the event that after the
Closing Date an Extension Adviser shall have resigned or been removed and a
successor Extension Adviser shall not have been elected, there shall be no
Extension Adviser, and the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
relating to the Special Servicer's right or obligation to consult with or
seek and/or obtain approval from an Extension Adviser shall be of no effect
during any such period that there is no Extension Adviser.
The Special Servicer will not be required to take or refrain from taking
any action pursuant to instructions from the Extension Adviser that would
cause it to violate the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, including the
Servicing Standards, or the REMIC Provisions.
The initial Extension Adviser will be appointed pursuant to the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and will be the Trustee or its designee.
Duties of the Extension Adviser. The Special Servicer will not be
permitted to grant any extension of the maturity of a Specially Serviced
Mortgage Loan beyond the third anniversary of such Mortgage Loan's original
maturity date, unless the Extension Adviser has approved such action in
writing within ten days after receiving from the Special Servicer written
notice thereof and sufficient information to make an informed decision
(provided that if a written objection to such extension from the Extension
Adviser has not been received by the Special Servicer within said ten day
period, then the Extension Adviser's approval will be deemed to have been
given). In addition, the Extension Adviser will confirm to its reasonable
satisfaction that all conditions precedent to granting any such extension set
forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement have been satisfied, as
described under "--Modifications, Waiver and Amendments" below.
Limitation on Liability of Extension Adviser. The Extension Adviser will
be acting solely as a representative of the interests of the Classes of
Certificateholders that elected the Extension Adviser and will have no
liability to the Trust or any other Class of Certificateholders for any
action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, in good faith
pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, or for errors in judgment;
provided that the Extension Adviser will not be protected against any
liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance,
bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless
disregard of obligations or duties. By its acceptance of a Certificate, each
Certificateholder confirms its understanding that the Extension Adviser may
take actions that favor the interest of one or more Classes of the
Certificates over other Classes of the Certificates, and that the Extension
Adviser may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those
of holders of some Classes of the Certificates and, absent willful
misfeasance, bad faith, negligence or reckless disregard of obligations or
duties on the part of the Extension Adviser, agrees to take no action against
the Extension Adviser or any of its officers, directors, employees,
principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or conflicts.
MODIFICATIONS, WAIVER AND AMENDMENTS
The Special Servicer may agree to extend the maturity date of a Mortgage
Loan that is not a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that
, no such extension entered into by the Special Servicer shall extend the
maturity date beyond the earlier of (i) two years prior to the Rated Final
Distribution Date and (ii) in the case of a Mortgage Loan secured by a
leasehold estate, the date ten years prior to the expiration of such
leasehold estate; and provided further that, if such extension would extend
the maturity date of a Mortgage Loan for more than twelve months from and
after the original maturity date of such Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer
must obtain the opinion of counsel described in the next sentence. Except as
otherwise set forth in this paragraph, the Special Servicer (or in certain
circumstances the
S-66
<PAGE>
Servicer) may not waive, modify or amend any provision of a Mortgage Loan
except for (i) the waiver of any due-on-sale clause or due-on-encumbrance
clause to the extent permitted in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and
(ii) any waiver, modification or amendment that would not be a "significant
modification" of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
Section 1.860G-2(b) and as to which the Special Servicer has provided the
Trustee with an opinion of counsel that such waiver, modification or
amendment will not constitute such a "significant modification."
If, but only if, the Special Servicer determines that a modification,
waiver or amendment (including the forgiveness or deferral of interest or
principal or the substitution or release of collateral or the pledge of
additional collateral) of the terms of a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan
with respect to which a payment default or other material default has
occurred or a payment default is, in the Special Servicer's judgment,
reasonably foreseeable, is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on
a present value basis (the relevant discounting to be performed at the
related Mortgage Rate) than liquidation of such Specially Serviced Mortgage
Loan, then the Special Servicer may, but is not required to, agree to a
modification, waiver or amendment of such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan,
subject to the restrictions and limitations described below; provided,
however, that the Extension Adviser must approve or be deemed to approve an
extension of the maturity of a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan beyond the
third anniversary of such Mortgage Loan's original maturity date. The Special
Servicer will use its best efforts to the extent possible to fully amortize a
modified Mortgage Loan prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date.
The Special Servicer may not agree to a modification, waiver or amendment
of any term of any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan if such modification,
waiver or amendment would:
(i) extend the maturity date of any such Specially Serviced Mortgage
Loan to a date occurring later than the earlier of (A) two years prior to
the Rated Final Distribution Date and (B) if such Specially Serviced
Mortgage Loan is secured by a leasehold estate, the date ten years prior
to the expiration of such leasehold;
(ii) reduce the Net Mortgage Rate to less than the lesser of (A) the
original Net Mortgage Rate or (B) the highest Pass-Through Rate on any
Class of Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates); or
(iii) provide for the deferral of interest unless (A) interest accrues
thereon, generally, at the related Mortgage Rate and (B) the aggregate
amount of such deferred interest does not exceed 10% of the unpaid
principal balance of the Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan.
In the event of a modification which creates a deferral of interest, the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement will provide that the amount of deferred
interest will be allocated to reduce the Distributable Certificate Interest
of the Class or Classes (other than the Class X Certificates) with the latest
alphabetical designation then outstanding, and to the extent so allocated,
shall be added to the Certificate Balance of such Class or Classes.
The Special Servicer or the Servicer, as the case may be, will notify each
other, the Rating Agencies and the Trustee of any modification, waiver or
amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan, and must deliver to the Trustee
for deposit in the related mortgage file, an original counterpart of the
agreement related to such modification, waiver or amendment, promptly
following the execution thereof. Copies of each agreement whereby any such
modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan is
effected are to be available for review during normal business hours at the
offices of the Paying Agent. See "Description of the Certificates--Reports to
Certificateholders; Certain Available Information" herein.
REALIZATION UPON DEFAULTED MORTGAGE LOANS
Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, if a default on a
Mortgage Loan has occurred or, in the Special Servicer's judgment, a payment
default is imminent, the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, may at
any 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. The Special Servicer shall not, however, acquire title to
any Mortgaged Property or take any other action with respect to any Mortgaged
Property that would cause the Trustee, for the benefit of the related series
of Certificateholders, or any other specified person to be considered to hold
title to, to be a "mortgagee-in-possession" of, or to be an "owner" or an
"operator"
S-67
<PAGE>
of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of certain federal
environmental laws, unless the Special Servicer has previously received a
report prepared by a person who regularly conducts environmental audits
(which report will be an expense of the Trust Fund) and either:
(i) such report indicates that (a) the Mortgaged Property is in
compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations and (b)
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
(ii) the Special Servicer, based solely (as to environmental matters
and related costs) on the information set forth in such report, determines
that taking such actions as are necessary to bring the Mortgaged Property
into compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations and/or
taking the actions contemplated by clause (i)(b) above, is reasonably
likely to produce a greater recovery, taking into account the time value
of money, than not taking such actions. See "Certain Legal Aspects of
Mortgage Loans--Environmental Risks" in the Prospectus.
The Pooling and Servicing Agreement grants to the Servicer and the Special
Servicer a right of first refusal to purchase from the Trust Fund, at the
Purchase Price, any Mortgage Loan as to which a specified number of scheduled
payments are delinquent. In addition, the Special Servicer may offer to sell
any defaulted Mortgage Loan if and when the Special Servicer determines,
consistent with the Servicing Standards, that such a sale would produce a
greater recovery, taking into account the time value of money, than would
liquidation of the related Mortgaged Property. In the absence of any such
sale, the Special Servicer will generally be required to proceed against the
related Mortgaged Property, subject to the discussion above.
If title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired by the Trust Fund, the
Special 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 (the "IRS") 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 REMIC
constituted by 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 and any other tax-related limitations, pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, the Special Servicer will generally be required to
attempt to sell any Mortgaged Property so acquired on the same terms and
conditions it would if it were the owner. The Special Servicer will also be
required to ensure that any Mortgaged Property acquired by the Trust Fund is
administered so that it constitutes "foreclosure property" within the meaning
of Code Section 860G(a)(8) at all times, that the sale of such property does
not result in the receipt by the Trust Fund of any income from nonpermitted
assets as described in Code Section 860F(a)(2)(B). If the Trust Fund acquires
title to any Mortgaged Property, the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust
Fund, will retain an independent contractor to manage and operate such
property. The retention of an independent contractor, however, will not
relieve the Special Servicer of its obligation to manage such Mortgaged
Property as required under the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
Generally, the REMIC will not be taxable on income received with respect
to a Mortgaged Property acquired by the Trust Fund to the extent that it
constitutes "rents from real property," within the meaning of Code Section
856(c)(3)(A) and Treasury regulations thereunder. "Rents from real property"
include fixed rents and rents based on the receipts or sales of a tenant but
do not include the portion of any rental based on the net income or profit of
any tenant or sub-tenant. No determination has been made whether rent on any
of the Mortgaged Properties meets this requirement. "Rents from real
property" include charges for services customarily furnished or rendered in
connection with the rental of real property, whether or not the charges are
separately stated. Services furnished to the tenants of a particular building
will be considered as customary if, in the geographic market in which the
building is located, tenants in buildings which are of similar class are
customarily provided with the service. No determination has been made whether
the services furnished to the tenants of the Mortgaged Properties are
"customary" within the meaning of applicable regulations. It is therefore
possible that a portion of the rental income with respect to a Mortgaged
Property owned by the Trust Fund, presumably allocated based on the value of
S-68
<PAGE>
any non-qualifying services, would not constitute "rents from real property."
In addition to the foregoing, any net income from a trade or business
operated or managed by an independent contractor on a Mortgaged Property
owned by the REMIC, including but not limited to a hotel, will not constitute
"rents from real property." Any of the foregoing types of income may instead
constitute "net income from foreclosure property," which would be taxable to
the REMIC at the highest marginal federal corporate rate (currently 35%) and
may also be subject to state or local taxes. Because these sources of income,
if they exist, are already in place with respect to the Mortgaged Properties,
it is generally viewed as beneficial to Certificateholders to permit the
Trust Fund to continue to earn them if it acquires a Mortgaged Property, even
at the cost of this tax. Any such taxes would be chargeable against the
related income for purposes of determining the proceeds available for
distribution to holders of Certificates. See "Certain Federal Income Tax
Consequences--Federal Income Tax Consequences for REMIC Certificates" and
"--Taxes That May Be Imposed on the REMIC Pool--Net Income from Foreclosure
Property" in the Prospectus.
To the extent that Liquidation Proceeds collected with respect to any
Mortgage Loan are less than the sum of (i) the outstanding principal balance
of such Mortgage Loan, (ii) interest accrued thereon, and (iii) the aggregate
amount of outstanding reimbursable expenses (including any unreimbursed
Servicing Advances and unpaid and accrued interest thereon) incurred with
respect to such Mortgage Loan, then the Trust Fund will realize a loss in the
amount of such shortfall. The Trustee, the Servicer, the Special Servicer
and/or the Fiscal Agent will be entitled to reimbursement out of the
Liquidation Proceeds recovered on any Mortgage Loan, prior to the
distribution of such Liquidation Proceeds to Certificateholders, of any and
all amounts that represent unpaid servicing compensation in respect of such
Mortgage Loan, certain unreimbursed expenses incurred with respect to such
Mortgage Loan and any unreimbursed Advances made with respect to such
Mortgage Loan. In addition, amounts otherwise distributable on the
Certificates will be further reduced by interest payable to the Servicer,
Trustee or Fiscal Agent on any such Advances.
If any Mortgaged Property suffers damage such that the proceeds, if any,
of the related hazard insurance policy are insufficient to restore fully the
damaged property, the Servicer will not be required to expend its own funds
to effect such restoration unless (i) the Special Servicer determines that
such restoration will increase the proceeds to Certificateholders on
liquidation of the Mortgage Loan after reimbursement of the Special Servicer
or the Servicer, as the case may be, for its expenses and (ii) the Servicer
determines that such expenses will be recoverable by it from related
Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds.
INSPECTIONS; COLLECTION OF OPERATING INFORMATION
The Servicer will perform (at its own expense), or shall cause to be
performed (at its own expense), physical inspections of each Mortgaged
Property at such times and in such manner as are consistent with the
Servicing Standards, but in any event shall inspect each Mortgaged Property
securing a Mortgage Note with a Stated Principal Balance of (A) $2,000,000 or
more at least once every 12 months and (B) less than $2,000,000 at least once
every 24 months, in each case commencing in the calendar year 1997; provided,
however, that if the Servicer has a reasonable basis to believe that the DSCR
with respect to any Mortgage Loan has decreased by 25% or more from the DSCR
as of the Cut-off Date, the Servicer shall inspect the related Mortgaged
Property as soon as practicable thereafter (the cost of which inspection
shall be a Servicing Advance); provided, further, however, that if any
scheduled payment becomes more than 60 days delinquent on the related
Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall inspect the related Mortgaged
Property as soon as practicable thereafter (the cost of which inspection
shall be a Servicing Advance). The Special Servicer or the Servicer, as
applicable, will prepare a written report of each such inspection describing
the condition of and any damage to the Mortgaged Property and specifying the
existence of any material vacancies in the Mortgaged Property, of any sale,
transfer or abandonment of the Mortgaged Property, of any material change in
the condition of the Mortgaged Property, or of any waste committed thereon.
With respect to each Mortgage Loan that requires the borrower to deliver
such statements, the Special Servicer or the Servicer, as applicable, is also
required to collect and review the annual operating
S-69
<PAGE>
statements of the related Mortgaged Property. Most of the Mortgages obligate
the related borrower to deliver annual property operating statements.
However, there can be no assurance that any operating statements required to
be delivered will in fact be delivered, nor is the Special Servicer or the
Servicer likely to 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 to be available for review by Certificateholders during normal
business hours at the offices of the Paying Agent. See "Description of the
Certificates--Reports to Certificateholders; Certain Available Information"
herein.
CERTAIN MATTERS REGARDING THE SERVICER, THE SPECIAL SERVICER AND THE
DEPOSITOR
The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits the Servicer and the Special
Servicer to resign from their respective obligations thereunder only upon (a)
in the case of the Servicer only, the appointment of, and the acceptance of
such appointment by, a successor thereto and receipt by the Trustee of
written confirmation from each applicable Rating Agency that such resignation
and appointment will, in and of itself, not have an adverse effect on the
rating assigned by such Rating Agency to any Class of Certificates and (b) a
determination that such obligations are no longer permissible with respect to
the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, under applicable
law or are in material conflict by reason of applicable law with any other
activities carried on by it. No such resignation will become effective until
the Trustee or other successor has assumed the obligations and duties of the
resigning Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.
The Pooling and Servicing Agreement will provide that none of the
Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor or any director, officer,
employee or agent of any of them will be under any liability to the Trust
Fund or the Certificateholders for any action taken, or not taken, in good
faith pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or for errors in
judgment; provided, however, that none of the Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Depositor or any such person will be protected against any liability that
would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
negligence in the performance of obligations or duties thereunder or by
reason of reckless disregard of such obligations and duties. The Pooling and
Servicing Agreement will also provide that the Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Depositor and any director, officer, employee or agent of any
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 and Servicing Agreement or the Certificates;
provided, however, that such indemnification will not extend to any loss,
liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
negligence in the performance of obligations or duties under the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, by reason of reckless disregard of such obligations or
duties, or in the case of the Depositor and any of its directors, officers,
employees and agents, any violation by any of them of any state or federal
securities law.
In addition, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement will provide that none of
the Servicer, the Special Servicer or 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 and Servicing
Agreement and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability.
However, each of the Servicer, the Special 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 and
Servicing 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 Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Depositor,
as the case may be, will be entitled to charge the Certificate Account
therefor.
Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer and Special
Servicer will each be required to maintain a fidelity bond and errors and
omissions policy or their equivalent that provides coverage against losses
that may be sustained as a result of an officer's or employee's
misappropriation of funds or errors and omissions, subject to certain
limitations as to amount of coverage, deductible amounts,
S-70
<PAGE>
conditions, exclusions and exceptions permitted by the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer will be allowed to
self-insure with respect to a fidelity bond so long as certain conditions set
forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are met.
Any person into which the Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Depositor
may be merged or consolidated, or any person resulting from any merger or
consolidation to which the Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Depositor is
a party, or any person succeeding to the business of the Servicer, the
Special Servicer or the Depositor, will be the successor of the Servicer, the
Special Servicer, or the Depositor, as the case may be, under the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. The Servicer and the Special Servicer may have other
normal business relationships with the Depositor or the Depositor's
affiliates.
EVENTS OF DEFAULT
"Events of Default" under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to
the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, will include, without
limitation, (i) any failure by the Servicer to make any remittance required to
be made by the Servicer on the day and by the time such remittance is required
to be made under the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (ii) any
failure by the Special Servicer to deposit into the REO Account within one
business day after the day such deposit is required to be made, or to remit to
the Servicer for deposit in the Certificate Account any such remittance required
to be made by the Special Servicer on the day such remittance is required to
be made under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (iii) any failure by the
Servicer or the Special Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material
respect any of its other covenants or obligations under the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, which failure continues unremedied for thirty days after
written notice thereof has been given to the Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as the case may be, by any other party to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, or to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be,
with a copy to each other party to the related Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, by Certificateholders of any Class, evidencing, as to such Class,
Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 25%; (iv) certain events of
insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities, or
similar proceedings in respect of or relating to the Servicer or the Special
Servicer, and certain actions by or on behalf of the Servicer or the Special
Servicer indicating its insolvency or inability to pay its obligations and
(v) the Trustee shall have received written notice from either Rating Agency
that the continuation of the Servicer or the Special Servicer in such
capacity would result, or has resulted, in a downgrade, qualification or
withdrawal of any rating then assigned by such Rating Agency to any Class of
Certificates.
RIGHTS UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT
If an Event of Default occurs with respect to the Servicer or the Special
Servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, then, in each and every
such case, so long as the Event of Default remains unremedied, the Depositor
or the Trustee will be authorized, and at the direction of Certificateholders
entitled to not less than 51% of the Voting Rights, the Trustee will be
required, to terminate all of the rights and obligations of the defaulting
party as Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, under the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, whereupon the Trustee will succeed to all of the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the defaulting party as Servicer
or Special Servicer, as applicable, under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
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 not less than 51% of the Voting Rights, it
will be required to) appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction
to appoint, a loan servicing institution or other entity that would not
result in the downgrading, qualification or withdrawal of the ratings
assigned to any Class of Certificates by any Rating Agency to act as
successor to the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
No Certificateholder will have any right under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement to institute any proceeding with respect to the Certificates or the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement unless such holder previously has given to
the Trustee written notice of default and the continuance thereof and unless
the holders of Certificates of any Class evidencing not less than 25% of the
aggregate Percentage Interests constituting such Class have made written
request upon the Trustee to institute such proceeding in its own name (as
Trustee thereunder) and have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity, and
the Trustee for
S-71
<PAGE>
sixty days after receipt of such request and indemnity has neglected or
refused to institute any such proceeding. However, the Trustee will be under
no obligation to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it by the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement or to institute, conduct or defend any
litigation thereunder or in relation thereto at the request, order or
direction of any of the Certificateholders, 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
The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended by the parties thereto,
without the consent of any of the holders of Certificates (i) to cure any
ambiguity, (ii) to correct or supplement any provision therein which may be
inconsistent with any other provision therein or to correct any error, (iii)
to change the timing and/or nature of deposits in the Certificate Account,
the Distribution Account or the REO Account, provided that (A) such change
would not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
Certificateholder, as evidenced by an opinion of counsel (at the expense of
the party requesting the amendment), and (B) such change would not result in
the downgrading, qualification or withdrawal of the ratings assigned to any
Class of Certificates by any Rating Agency, as evidenced by a letter from
each Rating Agency, (iv) to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions
(A) to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the
Trust Fund as a REMIC or to avoid or minimize the risk of imposition of any
tax on the Trust Fund, provided that the Trustee has received an opinion of
counsel (at the expense of the party requesting the amendment) to the effect
that (1) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification
or to avoid or minimize such risk, and (2) such action will not adversely
affect in any material respect the interests of any holder of the
Certificates, or (B) to restrict the transfer of the Residual Certificates,
provided that the Depositor has determined that the then-current ratings of
any Class of the Certificates will not be downgraded, qualified or withdrawn,
as evidenced by a letter from each Rating Agency, and that any such amendment
will not give rise to any tax with respect to the transfer of the Residual
Certificates to a non-permitted transferee (see "Certain Federal Income Tax
Consequences--Federal Income Tax Consequences for REMIC Certificates--
Taxation of Residual Certificates--Tax-Related Restrictions on Transfer
of Residual Certificates" in the Prospectus), (v) to make any other
provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement or any other change, provided that such action will not
adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
Certificateholder, or (vi) to amend or supplement any provision of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the
ratings assigned to each Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency.
The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may also be amended by the parties
thereto with the consent of the holders of Certificates of each Class
affected thereby evidencing, in each case, not less than 66-2/3% of the
aggregate Percentage Interests constituting such Class for the purpose of
adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any
manner the rights of the holders of the Certificates, except that no such
amendment may (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of,
payments received on the Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed
on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the holder of such
Certificate, (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any
Class the holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment
without the consent of the holders of all Certificates of such Class then
outstanding, or (iii) adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of
Certificates without the consent of the holders of all Certificates of such
Class then outstanding.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee will not be required to consent
to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first
received an opinion of counsel (at the Trust Fund's expense) to the effect
that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Servicer, the
Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee or any other specified person in
accordance with such amendment, will not result in the imposition of a tax on
the REMIC constituted by the Trust Fund or cause the Trust Fund to fail to
qualify as a REMIC.

YIELD AND MATURITY CONSIDERATIONS
YIELD CONSIDERATIONS
General. The yield on any Offered Certificate will depend on: (i) the
Pass-Through Rate for such Certificate (other than the Class P Certificates);
(ii) the price paid for such Certificate and, if the price was other than
par, the rate and timing of payments of principal on such Certificate; (iii)
the aggregate amount of distributions on such Certificate; and (iv) the
aggregate amount of Collateral Support Deficit amounts allocated to the Class
of Offered Certificates.
Pass-Through Rate. The Pass-Through Rate applicable to each Class of
Offered Certificates (other than the Class P Certificates) for any
Distribution Date will equal the rate set forth on the cover of this
Prospectus Supplement. See "Description of the Certificates" herein.
Rate and Timing of Principal Payments. The yield to holders of Offered
Certificates that are purchased at a discount or premium will be affected by
the rate and timing of principal payments on the Mortgage Loans (including
principal prepayments on the Mortgage Loans resulting from both voluntary
prepayments by the mortgagors and involuntary liquidations). The yield on the
Class P Certificates will be influenced by principal payments solely with
respect to the Discount Mortgage Loans. The rate and timing of principal
payments on the Mortgage Loans will in turn be affected by the amortization
schedules thereof, the dates on which Balloon Payments are due, any
extensions of maturity dates by the Servicer or the Special Servicer 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 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) while
work-outs are negotiated or foreclosures are completed. See "Servicing of the
Mortgage Loans--Modifications, Waivers and Amendments" and "--Realization
Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans" herein and "Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage
Loans--Foreclosure" in the Prospectus. In general, the Class X Certificates
will be extremely sensitive to the rate of principal prepayments, principal
losses and interest rate reductions due to modifications on the Mortgage
Loans, and the Class P Certificates will be sensitive to the rate of
principal prepayments on the Discount Mortgage Loans. Because the rate of
principal payments on the Mortgage Loans will depend on future events and a
variety of factors (as described 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.
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 are in turn
distributed on such Certificates. An investor should consider, in the case of
any Offered Certificate purchased at a discount, particularly a Class P
Certificate, the risk that a slower than anticipated rate of principal
payments on such Certificate 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 on such Certificate could result in an actual
yield to such investor that is lower than the anticipated yield. In general,
the earlier a payment of principal is made on 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 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.
S-73
<PAGE>
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 generally be borne by the holders of
the Class H, Class G, Class F, Class E, Class D, Class C and Class B
Certificates, in that order, and in each case to the extent of amounts
otherwise distributable in respect of such Class of Certificates. In the
event of the reduction of the Certificate Balances of all such Classes of
Certificates to zero, such losses and shortfalls will then be borne, pro
rata, by the Class A-l, Class A-2 and Class P Certificates (and Class X
Certificates with respect to shortfalls of interest).
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, due-on-sale clauses,
Lock-out Periods, Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges 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 properties 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" and "Description of the Mortgage Pool"
herein and "Risk Factors" and "Yield and Maturity Considerations--Yield and
Prepayment Considerations" 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 as the Mortgage Loans. When the prevailing market
interest rate is below a mortgage coupon, a borrower may have an increased
incentive to refinance its mortgage loan. However, under all of the Mortgage
Loans voluntary prepayments are subject to Lock-out Periods and/or Prepayment
Premium Periods and/or Yield Maintenance Periods. See "Description of the
Mortgage Pool--Certain Terms and Conditions of the Mortgage Loans--Prepayment
Provisions."
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 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
which 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 each monthly distribution is
made on each Distribution Date, which is at least 18 days after the end of
the related Interest Accrual 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--Priority" herein, if the portion of the
Available Distribution Amount distributable in respect of interest on any
Class of Offered Certificates (other than the Class P 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.
WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE
The weighted average life of an Offered Certificate (other than the Class
X Certificates) refers to the average amount of time that will elapse from
the date of its issuance until each dollar allocable to principal
S-74
<PAGE>
of such Certificate is distributed to the investor. The weighted average life
of an Offered Certificate will be influenced by, among other things, the rate
at which principal on the Mortgage Loans is paid or otherwise collected,
which may be in the form of scheduled amortization, voluntary prepayments,
Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds.
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 the pool of mortgage loans. As used in each
of the following tables, the column headed "0% CPR" assumes that none of the
Mortgage Loans is prepaid before maturity. The columns headed "3% CPR", "6%
CPR", "9% CPR" and "12% CPR" assume that prepayments on the Mortgage Loans
are made at those levels of CPR following the expiration of any Lock-out
Period. There is no assurance, however, that prepayments of the Mortgage
Loans will conform to any level of CPR, and no representation is made that
the Mortgage Loans will prepay at the levels of CPR shown or at any other
prepayment rate.
The following tables indicate the percentage of the initial Certificate
Balance of each Class of the Offered Certificates (other than the Class X
Certificates) that would be outstanding after each of the dates shown at
various CPRs and the corresponding weighted average life of each such Class
of Certificates. The tables have been prepared on the basis of the following
assumptions, among others: (i) scheduled monthly payments of principal and
interest on the Mortgage Loans, in each case prior to any prepayment of the
Mortgage Loan, will be timely received (with no defaults) and will be
distributed on the 18th day of each month commencing in August 1996; (ii) the
Mortgage Rate in effect for each Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-off Date will
remain in effect to maturity; (iii) the monthly principal and interest
payment due for each Mortgage Loan (other than 1 Mortgage Loan identified as
Loan ID No. 85 on Exhibit A hereto which has an amortization schedule which
is reduced prior to its stated maturity) on the first Due Date following the
Cut-off Date will continue to be due on each Due Date until maturity; (iv)
any principal prepayments on the Mortgage Loans will be received on their
respective Due Dates after the expiration of any applicable Lock-out Period
(assuming that a single Lock-out Period applies to each Mortgage Loan) at the
respective levels of CPR set forth in the tables; (v) the Mortgage Loan
Sellers will not be required to repurchase any Mortgage Loan, and none of the
Servicer, the Special Servicer or the holder of the Class R Certificates will
exercise its option to purchase all the Mortgage Loans and thereby cause an
early termination of the Trust Fund; (vi) no Prepayment Premiums or Yield
Maintenance Charges are included in any allocations or calculations; (vii)
any principal prepayments received on the Mortgage Loans are prepayments in
full; and (viii) the Closing Date is July 30, 1996. To the extent that the
Mortgage Loans have characteristics that differ from those assumed in
preparing the tables set forth below, a Class of Offered Certificates (other
than the Class X Certificates) may mature earlier or later than indicated by
the tables. It is highly unlikely that the Mortgage Loans will prepay at any
constant rate until maturity or that all the Mortgage Loans will prepay at
the same rate. 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 weighted average lives)
shown in the following tables. Such variations may occur even if the average
prepayment experience of the Mortgage Loans were to equal any of the
specified CPR percentages. Investors are urged to conduct their own analyses
of the rates at which the Mortgage Loans may be expected to prepay. Based on
the foregoing assumptions, the following table indicates the resulting
weighted average lives of each Class of Offered Certificates (other than the
Class X Certificates) and sets forth the percentage of the initial
Certificate Balance of such Class of the Offered Certificate that would be
outstanding after each of the dates shown at the indicated CPRs.

[/TABLE]
YIELD SENSITIVITY OF THE CLASS X CERTIFICATES
The yield to maturity on the Class X Certificates will be extremely
sensitive to the rate and timing of principal payments (including
prepayments), principal losses and interest rate reductions due to
modifications on the Mortgage Loans and to other factors set forth above.
Investors should fully consider the associated risks, including the risk that
a rapid rate of principal payments or principal losses on the Mortgage Pool
could result in the failure by investors in the Class X Certificates to fully
recoup their initial investments.
ANY OPTIONAL TERMINATION BY THE SPECIAL SERVICER, THE SERVICER OR THE
HOLDER OF THE CLASS R CERTIFICATES WOULD RESULT IN PREPAYMENT IN FULL OF THE
CERTIFICATES AND WOULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE YIELD OF THE CLASS X
CERTIFICATES BECAUSE A TERMINATION WOULD HAVE AN EFFECT SIMILAR TO A
PRINCIPAL PREPAYMENT IN FULL OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS (WITHOUT, HOWEVER, THE
PAYMENT OF ANY PREPAYMENT PREMIUMS OR YIELD MAINTENANCE CHARGES) AND, AS A
RESULT, INVESTORS IN THE CLASS X CERTIFICATES AND ANY OTHER CERTIFICATES
PURCHASED AT PREMIUM MIGHT NOT FULLY RECOUP THEIR INITIAL INVESTMENT. SEE
"DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES--TERMINATION; RETIREMENT OF CERTIFICATES"
HEREIN.
The table below indicates the sensitivity of the pre-tax corporate bond
equivalent yields to maturity of the Class X Certificates at various prices
and constant prepayment rates. The allocations and calculations do not take
account of any Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges. The yields
set forth in the table were calculated by determining the monthly discount
rates that, when applied to the assumed stream of cash flows to be paid on
the Class X Certificates, would cause the discounted present value of such
assumed stream of cash flows to equal the assumed purchase prices plus
accrued interest of such Class of Certificates and converting such monthly
rates to corporate bond equivalent rates. Such calculations do not take into
account variations that may occur in the interest rates at which investors
may be able to reinvest funds received by them as distributions on the Class
X Certificates and consequently do not purport to reflect the return on any
investment in such Class of Certificates when such reinvestment rates are
considered.

The table below has been prepared based on the assumption that
distributions are made in accordance with "Description of the Certificates"
above and on the assumptions described in clauses (i) through (viii) on page

initial Notional Amount of the Class X Certificates) of the Class X
Certificates set forth in the table, plus accrued interest thereon from July

THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE MORTGAGE LOANS WILL PREPAY AT ANY OF

MORTGAGE LOANS WILL PREPAY AT ANY OF THE SPECIFIED PERCENTAGES OF CPR UNTIL
MATURITY OR THAT ALL THE MORTGAGE LOANS WILL SO PREPAY AT THE SAME RATE.
TIMING OF CHANGES IN THE RATE OF PREPAYMENTS MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT THE
ACTUAL YIELD TO MATURITY TO INVESTORS, EVEN IF THE AVERAGE RATE OF PRINCIPAL
PREPAYMENTS IS CONSISTENT WITH THE EXPECTATIONS OF INVESTORS. INVESTORS MUST
MAKE THEIR OWN DECISIONS AS TO THE APPROPRIATE PREPAYMENT ASSUMPTION TO BE
USED IN DECIDING WHETHER TO PURCHASE THE CLASS X CERTIFICATES.
YIELD SENSITIVITY OF THE CLASS P CERTIFICATES
THE YIELD TO AN INVESTOR IN THE CLASS P CERTIFICATES WILL BE SENSITIVE TO
THE RATE AND TIMING OF PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS (INCLUDING PREPAYMENTS) OF THE
DISCOUNT MORTGAGE LOANS, WHICH RATE MAY FLUCTUATE SIGNIFICANTLY FROM TIME TO
TIME. AN INVESTOR SHOULD FULLY CONSIDER THE ASSOCIATED RISKS, INCLUDING THE
RISK THAT A RELATIVELY SLOW RATE OF PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS (INCLUDING
PREPAYMENTS) ON THE DISCOUNT MORTGAGE LOANS WILL HAVE A NEGATIVE EFFECT ON
THE YIELD TO AN INVESTOR IN THE CLASS P CERTIFICATES. THE DISCOUNT MORTGAGE
LOANS WILL HAVE LOWER NET MORTGAGE RATES THAN THE OTHER MORTGAGE LOANS. IN
GENERAL, MORTGAGE LOANS WITH LOWER MORTGAGE INTEREST RATES MAY TEND TO PREPAY
AT A SLOWER RATE OF PAYMENT IN RESPECT OF PRINCIPAL THAN MORTGAGE LOANS WITH
RELATIVELY HIGHER MORTGAGE INTEREST RATES, IN RESPONSE TO CHANGES IN MARKET
INTEREST RATES. AS A RESULT, THE DISCOUNT MORTGAGE LOANS MAY PREPAY AT A
SLOWER RATE OF PAYMENT IN RESPECT OF PRINCIPAL THAN THE OTHER MORTGAGE LOANS,
RESULTING IN A LOWER YIELD ON THE CLASS P CERTIFICATES THAN WOULD BE THE CASE
IF THE DISCOUNT MORTGAGE LOANS PREPAID AT THE SAME RATE AS THE OTHER MORTGAGE
LOANS.
The table below indicates the sensitivity of the pre-tax corporate bond
equivalent yields to maturity of the Class P Certificates at various prices
and constant prepayment rates. The yields set forth in the table were
calculated by determining the monthly discount rates that, when applied to
the assumed stream of cash flows to be paid on the Class P Certificates,
would cause the discounted present value of such assumed stream of cash flows
to equal the assumed purchase prices of such Class of Certificates and
converting such monthly rates to corporate bond equivalent rates. Such

interest rates at which investors may be able to reinvest funds received by
them as distributions on the Class P Certificates and consequently do not
purport to reflect the return on any investment in such Class of Certificates
when such reinvestment rates are considered.
The table below has been prepared based on the assumption that
distributions are made in accordance with "Description of the Certificates"
above and on the assumptions described in clauses (i) through (viii) on page

CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
Upon the issuance of the Certificates, Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft,
counsel to the Depositor, will deliver its opinion that, assuming (i) the
making of an appropriate election, (ii) compliance with the provisions of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and (iii) compliance with applicable changes
in the Code, including the REMIC Provisions, for federal income tax purposes,
the Trust Fund will qualify as a real estate mortgage investment conduit (the
"REMIC") within the meaning of Sections 860A through 860G (the "REMIC
Provisions") of the Code, and (i) the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class P, Class X,
Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G and Class H Certificates
will evidence the "regular interests" in the REMIC and (ii) the Class R
Certificates will be the sole class of "residual interests" in the REMIC, within
the meaning of the REMIC Provisions in effect on the date hereof. The Offered
Certificates are "Regular Certificates" as defined in the Prospectus.
Because they represent regular interests, each Class of Offered
Certificates generally will be treated as newly originated debt instruments
for federal income tax purposes. Holders of such Classes of Certificates will
be required to include in income all interest on such Certificates in
accordance with the accrual method of accounting, regardless of a
Certificateholders usual method of accounting. The Class P Certificates will
be issued with OID in an amount equal to the excess of the initial
Certificate Balance of such Class over their issue price. It is anticipated
that the Class D and Class E Certificates will be issued with OID in an
amount equal to the excess of the initial Certificate Balances thereof (plus
12 days of interest at the Pass-Through Rates thereon) over their respective
issue prices (including accrued interest). In addition, it is expected that
the Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class B Certificates will be issued at a premium
and that the Class C Certificates will be issued with de minimis OID for
federal income tax purposes. The prepayment assumption that will be used in
determining the rate of accrual of OID and that may be used to amortize
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% (the "Prepayment Assumption").
No representation is made that the Mortgage Loans will prepay at that rate or at
any other rate. See "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences--Federal Income
Tax Consequences for REMIC Certificates--Taxation of Regular
Certificates--Original Issue Discount" and "--Premium" in the Prospectus.
Although unclear for federal income tax purposes, it is anticipated that
the Class X Certificates will be considered to be issued with OID in an
amount equal to the excess of all distributions of interest expected to be
received thereon (assuming the weighted average of the Pass-Through Rate
changes in accordance with the Prepayment Assumption) over their issue price
(including accrued interest). Any "negative" amounts of OID on the Class X
Certificates attributable to rapid prepayments with respect to the Mortgage
Loans will not be deductible currently, but may be offset against future
positive accruals of OID, if any. Finally, a holder of a Class X Certificate
may be entitled to a loss deduction to the extent it becomes certain that
such holder will not recover a portion of its basis in such Certificate,
assuming no
S-81
<PAGE>
further prepayments. In the alternative, it is possible that rules similar to
the "noncontingent bond method" of the contingent interest rules in the OID
Regulations, as amended on June 12, 1996, may be promulgated with respect to
the Class X Certificates. See "Certain Federal Income Taxes--Federal Income
Tax Consequences for REMIC Certificates--Taxation of Regular
Certificates--Original Issue Discount" in the Prospectus. Under the
noncontingent bond method, if the interest payable for any period is greater
or less than the amount projected, the amount of income included for that
period would be either increased or decreased accordingly. Any net reduction
in the income accrual for the taxable year below zero (a "Negative Adjustment")
would be treated by a Certificateholder as ordinary loss to the extent of prior
income accruals and would be carried forward to offset future interest accruals.
At maturity, any remaining Negative Adjustment would be treated as a loss on
retirement of the Certificate. The legislative history of relevant Code
provisions indicates, however, that negative amounts of OID on an instrument
such as a REMIC regular interest may not give rise to taxable losses in any
accrual period prior to the instrument's disposition or retirement. Thus, it
is not clear whether any losses resulting from a Negative Adjustment would be
recognized currently or be carried forward until disposition or retirement of
the debt obligation.
Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges actually collected will
be distributed among the holders of the respective Classes of Certificates as
described herein under "Description of the Certificates--Allocation of
Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges." It is not entirely clear
under the Code when the amount of Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance
Charges so allocated should be taxed to the holder of an Offered Certificate,
but it is not expected, for federal income tax reporting purposes, that
Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges will be treated as giving
rise to any income to the holder of an Offered Certificate prior to the
Servicer's actual receipt of a Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance
Charge. It appears that Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges, 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 advisers concerning the treatment of Prepayment Premiums and Yield
Maintenance Charges.
The Offered Certificates will be treated as "qualifying real property
loans" within the meaning of Section 593(d) of the Code and "real estate
assets" within the meaning of Section 856(c)(5)(A) of the Code, and interest
(including original issue discount, if any) on the Offered Certificates will
be interest described in Section 856(c)(3)(B) of the Code. Moreover, the
Offered Certificates will be "qualified mortgages" within the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code. The Offered Certificates will be treated as
"loans . . . secured by an interest in real property which is . . .
residential real property" (but only to the extent of the allocable portion
of the Mortgage Loans secured by multifamily properties) to the extent
described in the Prospectus. As of the Cut-off Date, Mortgage Loans secured
by multifamily properties represented approximately 36.98% of the Mortgage
Loans by unpaid principal balance. See "Certain Federal Income Tax
Consequences--Federal Income Tax Consequences for REMIC Certificates--Status
of REMIC Certificates" in the Prospectus.
For further information regarding the federal income tax consequences of
investing in the Offered Certificates, see "Certain Federal Income Tax
Consequences--Federal Income Tax Consequences for REMIC Certificates --
Taxation of Regular Certificates" in the Prospectus.
METHOD OF DISTRIBUTION
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the underwriting
agreement, dated the date hereof (the "Underwriting Agreement"), between the
Depositor and the Underwriters named below (the "Underwriters"), the
Depositor has agreed to sell to the Underwriters, and each Underwriter has
severally but not jointly agreed to purchase from the Depositor, one-third of
the respective Certificate Balances, or Notional Amounts, as applicable, of
each Class of the Offered Certificates.
In the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriters have severally agreed,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, to purchase all the
Offered Certificates if any Offered Certificates are purchased. In the event
of a default by any Underwriter, the Underwriting Agreement provides that, in
certain circumstances, purchase commitments of the nondefaulting Underwriters
may be increased or the Underwriting Agreement may be terminated.
S-82
<PAGE>
The Depositor has been advised by the Underwriters that they propose to
offer the Offered Certificates to the public from time to time in one or more
negotiated transactions, or otherwise, at varying prices to be determined at
the time of sale.
Chase Securities Inc. is an affiliate of the Depositor and the Servicer.
There can be no assurance that a secondary market for the Offered
Certificates will develop or, if it does develop, that it will continue. The
Underwriters expect to make, but are not obligated to make, a secondary
market in the Offered Certificates. The primary source of ongoing information
available to investors concerning the Offered Certificates will be the
monthly statements discussed in the Prospectus under "Description of the
Certificates--Reports to Certificateholders," which will include information
as to the outstanding principal balance of the Offered Certificates and the
status of the applicable form of credit enhancement. Except as described
herein under "Description of the Certificates--Reports to Certificateholders;
Certain Available Information," there can be no assurance that any additional
information regarding the Offered Certificates will be available through any
other source. In addition, the Depositor is not aware of any source through
which price information about the Offered Certificates will be generally
available on an ongoing basis. The limited nature of such information
regarding the Offered Certificates may adversely affect the liquidity of the
Offered Certificates, even if a secondary market for the Offered Certificates
becomes available.
If and to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, this
Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus will be used by the Chase Securities
Inc. in connection with offers and sales related to market-making
transactions in the Offered Certificates with respect to which Chase
Securities Inc. acts as principal. Chase Securities Inc. may also act as
agent in such transactions. Sales may be made at negotiated prices determined
at the time of sale.
LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the Certificates will be passed upon for the Depositor by
Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft and for the Underwriters by Skadden, Arps,
Slate, Meagher & Flom. Certain federal income tax matters and other matters
also will be passed upon for the Depositor by Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft.
RATING
It is a condition to issuance that the Offered Certificates be rated not
lower than the following ratings by Fitch and S&P:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
CLASS FITCH S&P
- - --------- --------- --------
<S> <C> <C>
A-1 ...... AAA AAA
A-2 ...... AAA AAA
P ........ * AAAr
X ........ AAA **
B ........ AA AA
C ........ A A
D ........ BBB BBB
E ........ BBB- BBB-
</TABLE>
- - ------------
* Not rated by Fitch.
** Not rated by S&P.
A securities rating on mortgage pass-through certificates addresses the
likelihood of the receipt by holders thereof of payments to which they are
entitled. The rating takes into consideration the credit quality of the
mortgage pool, structural and legal aspects associated with the certificates,
and the extent to which the payment stream from the mortgage pool is adequate
to make payments required under the certificates. S&P assigns the additional
rating of "r" to highlight classes of securities that S&P believes may
experience high volatility or high variability in expected returns due to
non-credit risks. The ratings on the Offered Certificates do not, however,
constitute a statement regarding the likelihood or frequency
S-83
<PAGE>
of prepayments (whether voluntary or involuntary) on the Mortgage Loans. In
addition, a rating does not address the likelihood or frequency of voluntary
or mandatory prepayments of Mortgage Loans, payments of default interest,
payments of Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges or the
corresponding effect on yield to investors. Fitch's rating on the Class X
Certificates does not address the possibility that Certificateholders might
suffer a lower than anticipated yield or that if there is a rapid rate of
principal payments (including voluntary and involuntary prepayments) or
principal losses on the Mortgage Loans, investors in such Class of
Certificates could fail to recover their initial investment.
There can be no assurance as to whether any rating agency not requested to
rate the Offered Certificates will nonetheless issue a rating to any Class
thereof and, if so, what such rating 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 Fitch or
S&P.
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.
LEGAL INVESTMENT
None of the Offered Certificates will be "mortgage related securities" for
purposes of SMMEA. As a result, the appropriate characterization of the
Offered Certificates under various legal investment restrictions, and thus
the ability of investors subject to these restrictions to purchase the
Offered Certificates, is subject to significant interpretive uncertainties.
The Depositor makes no representation as to the proper characterization of
any Class of Offered Certificates for legal investment or other purposes, or
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.
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 and separate accounts in which such
plans, annuities, accounts or arrangements are invested, including insurance
company general accounts, that is subject to the fiduciary responsibility
rules of ERISA, or Section 4975 of the Code (an "ERISA Plan") or which is a
governmental plan, as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA, subject to any federal,
state or local law ("Similar Law") which is, to a material extent, similar to
the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code (collectively, with an ERISA Plan,
a "Plan") should 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, the Code or Similar Law or
whether there exists any statutory or administrative exemption applicable
thereto. Moreover, each Plan fiduciary should determine whether an investment
in the Offered Certificates is appropriate for the Plan, taking into account
the overall investment policy of the Plan and the composition of the Plan's
investment portfolio.
The U.S. Department of Labor has issued to Chase Securities Inc., Bear,
Stearns & Co. Inc., and PaineWebber Incorporated, individual prohibited
transaction exemptions, PTE 90-33, 55 Fed. Reg. 23, 151 (June 6, 1990); PTE
90-30, 55 Fed. Reg. 21,461 (May 24, 1990); and PTE 90-36, 55 Fed. Reg. 25,903
(June 25, 1990), respectively (collectively, the "Exemptions"), which
generally exempt from the application of the prohibited transaction
provisions of Section 406 of ERISA, and the excise taxes imposed on such
prohibited transactions pursuant to Sections 4975(a) and (b) of the Code,
certain transactions, among others, relating to the servicing and operation
of mortgage pools, such as the
S-84
<PAGE>
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 Exemptions are
satisfied.
The Exemptions set forth six general conditions which must be satisfied
for a transaction involving the purchase, sale and holding of the Senior
Certificates to be eligible for exemptive relief thereunder. First, the
acquisition of the Senior Certificates by a Plan must be on terms that are at
least as favorable to the Plan as they would be in an arms-length transaction
with an unrelated party. Second, the rights and interests evidenced by the
Senior Certificates must not be subordinated to the rights and interests
evidenced by the other certificates of the same trust. Third, the Senior
Certificates at the time of acquisition by the Plan must be rated in one of
the three highest generic rating categories by S&P, Moody's Investors
Service, Inc. ("Moody's"), Duff and Phelps Credit Rating Co. ("DCR")
or Fitch. Fourth, the Trustee cannot be an affiliate of any other member of
the "Restricted Group", which consists of any Underwriter, the Depositor, the
Trustee, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, any sub-servicer, and any mortgagor
with respect to Mortgage Loans constituting more than 5% of the aggregate
unamortized principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the date of initial
issuance of the Senior Certificates. Fifth, the sum of all payments made to and
retained by the Underwriters must represent not more than reasonable
compensation for underwriting the Senior 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
Servicer, the Special Servicer and 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 of 1933, as amended.
Because the Class A, Class P and Class X Certificates are not 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 Certificates that they be rated not lower than
"AAA" by S&P and Fitch, it is a condition of the issuance of the Class P
Certificates that they be rated no lower than "AAAr" by S&P, and it is a
condition of the issuance of the Class X Certificates that they be rated no
lower than "AAA" by Fitch. As of the Closing Date, the fourth general
condition set forth above will be satisfied with respect to the Senior
Certificates. A fiduciary of a Plan contemplating purchasing a Class A, Class
P or Class X Certificate in the secondary market must make its own
determination that, at the time of such purchase the Class A, Class P or
Class X Certificates continue to satisfy the third and fourth general
conditions set forth above. A fiduciary of a Plan contemplating purchasing a
Senior Certificate, whether in the initial issuance of such Certificates or
in the secondary market, must make its own determination that the first,
fifth and sixth general conditions set forth above will be satisfied with
respect to such Senior Certificate.
The Exemptions also require 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 & Poors, Moodys, Duff & Phelps or Fitch for at least
one year prior to the Plan's acquisition of Senior Certificates; and (iii)
certificates in such other investment pools must have been purchased by
investors other than Plans for at least one year prior to any Plan's
acquisition of Senior Certificates.
If the general conditions of the Exemptions are satisfied, the Exemptions
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
Senior Certificates in the initial issuance of Certificates between the
Depositor or an Underwriter and a Plan when the Depositor, an Underwriter,
the Trustee, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, a sub-servicer, the Fiscal
Agent or a mortgagor is a Party in Interest with respect to the investing
Plan, (ii) the direct or indirect acquisition or disposition in the secondary
market of the 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),
S-85
<PAGE>
406(a)(2) and 407 of ERISA for the acquisition or holding of a Senior
Certificate on behalf of an "Excluded Plan" or 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 Exemptions are also satisfied, the
Exemptions 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 Plan assets in such Certificates is (a) a mortgagor 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 a Plan and (3)
the holding of Senior 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 Mortgage Pool.
Before purchasing a Senior Certificate, a fiduciary of a Plan should
itself confirm that (i) the Senior Certificates constitute "certificates" for
purposes of the Exemptions and (ii) the specific and general conditions and
the other requirements set forth in the Exemptions would be satisfied. In
addition to making its own determination as to the availability of the
exemptive relief provided in the Exemptions, the Plan fiduciary should
consider the availability of any other prohibited transaction exemptions,
including with respect to governmental plans, any exemptive relief afforded
under Similar Laws. See "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus. A purchaser
of a Senior 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 which might be construed as
prohibited transactions.
BECAUSE THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SUBORDINATE OFFERED CERTIFICATES DO NOT
MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE EXEMPTIONS, THE PURCHASE OR HOLDING OF SUCH
CERTIFICATES BY A PLAN MAY RESULT IN PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS OR THE
IMPOSITION OF EXCISE TAXES OR CIVIL PENALTIES. IN NO EVENT MAY ANY TRANSFER
OF A SUBORDINATE OFFERED CERTIFICATE OR ANY INTEREST THEREIN BE MADE TO A
PLAN OR TO ANY PERSON WHO IS DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY PURCHASING SUCH
CERTIFICATE OR INTEREST THEREIN ON BEHALF OF, AS NAMED FIDUCIARY OF, AS
TRUSTEE OF, OR WITH ASSETS OF A PLAN, UNLESS THE PURCHASE AND HOLDING OF SUCH
CERTIFICATE OR INTEREST THEREIN IS EXEMPT FROM THE PROHIBITED TRANSACTION
PROVISIONS OF SECTION 406 OF ERISA AND THE RELATED EXCISE TAX PROVISIONS OF
SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE UNDER PROHIBITED TRANSACTION CLASS EXEMPTION 95-60,
WHICH PROVIDES AN EXEMPTION FROM THE PROHIBITED TRANSACTION RULES FOR CERTAIN
TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING AN INSURANCE COMPANY GENERAL ACCOUNT. ANY SUCH PLAN OR
PERSON TO WHOM A TRANSFER OF ANY SUCH CERTIFICATE OR INTEREST THEREIN IS MADE
SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE REPRESENTED TO THE DEPOSITOR, THE SERVICER, THE
SPECIAL SERVICER, THE TRUSTEE, THE UNDERWRITERS, ANY SUB-SERVICER AND ANY
BORROWER WITH RESPECT TO THE MORTGAGE LOANS THAT THE PURCHASE AND HOLDING OF
SUCH CERTIFICATE OR INTEREST THEREIN IS SO EXEMPT ON THE BASIS OF PROHIBITED
TRANSACTION CLASS EXEMPTION 95-60. See "ERISA Considerations" in the
Prospectus. Any Plan fiduciary considering whether to purchase an Offered
Certificate on behalf of a Plan should consult with its counsel regarding the
applicability of the fiduciary responsibility and prohibited transaction
provisions of ERISA and the Code to such investment.
The sale of Certificates to a Plan is in no respect a representation by
the Depositor or Underwriters that this investment meets all relevant legal
requirements with respect to investments by Plans generally or any particular
Plan, or that this investment is appropriate for Plans generally or any
particular Plan.

(ISSUABLE IN SERIES)
CHASE COMMERCIAL MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORP.
(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 any 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 (a "Mortgage
Asset Pool") of various types of multifamily or commercial mortgage loans
(the "Mortgage Loans"), 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"). If so specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement, the Trust Fund for a series of Certificates
may include letters of credit, insurance policies, guarantees, reserve funds
or other types of credit support, or any combination thereof (with respect to
any series, collectively, "Credit Support"), and currency or interest rate
exchange agreements and other financial assets, or any combination thereof
(with respect to any series, collectively, "Cash Flow Agreements"). See
"Description of the Trust Funds", "Description of the Certificates" and
"Description of Credit Support".
The Depositor does not intend to list any of the Offered Certificates on
any securities exchange and has not made any other arrangement for secondary
trading of the Offered Certificates. There will have been no public market
for the Certificates of any series prior to the offering thereof. No
assurance can be given that such a market will develop as a result of such an
offering. See "Risk Factors".
SEE "RISK FACTORS" BEGINNING ON PAGE 17 OF THIS PROSPECTUS FOR CERTAIN
FACTORS TO BE CONSIDERED IN PURCHASING THE OFFERED CERTIFICATES.
(cover continued on next page)
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES
AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION, NOR HAS THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED
UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE
CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
The Offered Certificates of any series may be offered through one or more
different methods, including offerings through underwriters, which may
include Chase Securities Inc., an affiliate of the Depositor, as more fully
described under "Method of Distribution" and in the related Prospectus
Supplement.
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 date of this Prospectus is May 28, 1996
<PAGE>
(cover continued)
As described in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Certificates of
each series, including the Offered Certificates of such series, may consist
of one or more classes of Certificates that: (i) provide for the accrual of
interest thereon based on a fixed, variable or adjustable interest rate; (ii)
are senior or subordinate 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; (iv) are entitled to distributions of interest,
with disproportionately small, nominal or no distributions of principal; (v)
provide for distributions of interest thereon or principal thereof 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 thereof 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 thereof 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, annual or other periodic basis as
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement. Unless otherwise specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement, such distributions will be made only from
the assets of the related Trust Fund.
No series of Certificates 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 any 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 "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences".

semi-annually or at such other interval as
is specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement. Unless otherwise provided in the
related Prospectus Supplement, each Mortgage
Loan will have had a principal balance at
origination of not less than $25,000 and an
original term to maturity of not more than
40 years. Unless otherwise provided in the
related Prospectus Supplement, no Mortgage
Loan will have been originated by the
Depositor; however, some or all of the
Mortgage Loans in any Trust Fund may have
been originated by an affiliate of the
Depositor. See "Description of the Trust
Funds--Mortgage Loans".
If and to the extent specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement, the Mortgage
Assets with respect to a series of
Certificates may also include, or consist
of, (i) private mortgage participations,
mortgage pass-through certificates or other
mortgage-backed securities or (ii)
certificates insured or guaranteed by the
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation
("FHLMC"), the Federal National Mortgage
Association ("FNMA"), the Governmental
National Mortgage Association ("GNMA") or
the Federal Agricultural Mortgage
Corporation ("FAMC") (collectively, the
mortgage-backed securities referred to in
clauses (i) and (ii), "MBS"), provided that
each MBS will evidence an interest in, or
will be secured by a pledge
10
<PAGE>
of, one or more mortgage loans that conform
to the descriptions of the Mortgage Loans
contained herein. See "Description of the
Trust Funds--MBS".
B. CERTIFICATE ACCOUNT
........................ 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 Supplement will, to the
extent described herein and in such
Prospectus Supplement, deposit all payments
and other collections received or advanced
with respect to the Mortgage Assets and
other assets in such 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 obligations
acceptable to each Rating Agency (as defined
below) rating one or more classes of the
related series of Offered Certificates. See
"Description of the Trust Funds--
Certificate Accounts" and "Description of
the Pooling Agreements--Certificate
Account".
C. CREDIT SUPPORT ..... If so provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement, partial or full protection
against certain defaults and losses on the
Mortgage Assets in the related Trust Fund
may be provided to one or more classes of
Certificates of the related series in the
form of subordination of one or more other
classes of Certificates of such series,
which other classes may include one or more
classes of Offered Certificates, or by one
or more other types of credit support, such
as a letter of credit, insurance policy,
guarantee, reserve fund or another type of
credit support, or a combination thereof
(any such coverage with respect to the
Certificates of any series, "Credit
Support"). The amount and types of any
Credit Support, the identification of the
entity providing it (if applicable) and
related information will be set forth in the
Prospectus Supplement for a series of
Offered Certificates. See "Risk
Factors--Credit Support Limitations",
"Description of the Trust Funds--Credit
Support" and "Description of Credit
Support".
D. CASH FLOW AGREEMENTS
........................ If so provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement, a Trust Fund may include
guaranteed investment contracts pursuant to
which moneys held in the funds and accounts
established for the related series will be
invested at a specified rate. The Trust Fund
may also include certain other agreements,
such as interest rate exchange agreements,
interest rate cap or floor agreements,
currency exchange agreements or other
agreements designed to reduce the effects of
interest rate or currency exchange rate
fluctuations on the Mortgage Assets or 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"),
including, without limitation, provisions
relating to the timing, manner and amount of
payments thereunder and provisions relating
to the termination thereof,
11
<PAGE>
will be described in the Prospectus
Supplement for the related series. In
addition, the related Prospectus Supplement
will contain certain information that
pertains to the obligor under any such Cash
Flow Agreement. See "Description of the
Trust Funds--Cash Flow Agreements".
DESCRIPTION OF
CERTIFICATES ........... Each series of Certificates will be issued
in one or more classes pursuant to a pooling
and servicing agreement or other agreement
specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement (in either case, a "Pooling
Agreement") and will represent in the
aggregate the entire beneficial ownership
interest in the related Trust Fund.
As described in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the Certificates of each series,
including the Offered Certificates of such
series, may consist of one or more classes
of Certificates that, among other things:
(i) 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; (ii) are entitled to
distributions of principal, with
disproportionately small, nominal or no
distributions of interest (collectively,
"Stripped Principal Certificates"); (iii)
are entitled to distributions of interest,
with disproportionately small, nominal or no
distributions of principal (collectively,
"Stripped Interest Certificates"); (iv)
provide for distributions of interest
thereon or principal thereof that commence
only after the occurrence of certain events,
such as the retirement of one or more other
classes of Certificates of such series; (v)
provide for distributions of principal
thereof 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; (vi) provide for distributions of
principal thereof to be made, subject to
available funds, based on a specified
principal payment schedule or other
methodology; or (vii) provide for
distribution based on collections on the
Mortgage Assets in the related Trust Fund
attributable to prepayment premiums, yield
maintenance penalties or equity
participations.
Each class of Certificates, other than
certain classes of Stripped Interest
Certificates and certain classes of Residual
Certificates (as defined herein), will have
a stated principal amount (a "Certificate
Balance"); and each class of Certificates,
other than certain classes of Stripped
Principal Certificates and certain classes
of Residual Certificates, will accrue
interest on its Certificate Balance or, in
the case of certain classes of Stripped
Interest Certificates, on a notional amount
(a "Notional Amount") based on a fixed,
variable or adjustable interest rate (a
"Pass-Through Rate"). The related Prospectus
Supplement will specify the Certificate
Balance, Notional Amount and/or Pass-Through
Rate (or, in the case of a variable or
adjustable
12
<PAGE>
Pass-Through Rate, the method for
determining such rate), as applicable, for
each class of Offered Certificates.
The Certificates will not be guaranteed or
insured by the Depositor or any of its
affiliates, by any governmental agency or
instrumentality or by any other person or
entity, unless otherwise provided in the
related Prospectus Supplement. See "Risk
Factors--Limited Assets" and "Description of
the Certificates".
DISTRIBUTIONS OF
INTEREST ON THE
CERTIFICATES .......... Interest on each class of Offered
Certificates (other than certain classes of
Stripped Principal Certificates and certain
classes of Residual Certificates) of each
series will accrue at the applicable
Pass-Through Rate on the Certificate Balance
or, in the case of certain classes of
Stripped Interest Certificates, the Notional
Amount thereof outstanding from time to time
and will be distributed to
Certificateholders as provided in the
related Prospectus Supplement (each of the
specified dates on which distributions are
to be made, a "Distribution Date").
Distributions of interest with respect to
one or more classes of Certificates
(collectively, "Accrual Certificates") may
not commence until the occurrence of certain
events, such as the retirement of one or
more other classes of Certificates, and
interest accrued with respect to a class of
Accrual Certificates prior to the occurrence
of such an event will either be added to the
Certificate Balance thereof or otherwise
deferred. Distributions of interest with
respect to one or more classes of
Certificates may be reduced to the extent of
certain delinquencies, losses and other
contingencies described herein and in the
related Prospectus Supplement. See "Risk
Factors--Prepayments; Average Life of
Certificates; Yields", "Yield and Maturity
Considerations" and "Description of the
Certificates--Distributions of Interest on
the Certificates".
DISTRIBUTIONS OF
PRINCIPAL OF THE
CERTIFICATES .......... Each class of Certificates of each series
(other than certain classes of Stripped
Interest Certificates and certain classes of
Residual Certificates) will have a
Certificate Balance. The Certificate Balance
of a class of Certificates outstanding from
time to time will represent the maximum
amount that the holders thereof are then
entitled to receive in respect of principal
from future cash flow on the assets in the
related Trust Fund. Unless otherwise
specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the initial aggregate
Certificate Balance of all classes of
Certificates of a series will not be greater
than the outstanding principal balance of
the related Mortgage Assets as of a
specified date (the "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 each
Prospectus Supplement, distributions of
principal with respect to the related series
of Certificates will be made on each
Distribution Date to the holders of the
class or classes of Certificates of such
13
<PAGE>
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. Distributions of
principal with respect to one or more
classes of Certificates 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 the
Mortgage Assets in the related Trust Fund.
Distributions of principal with respect to
one or more classes of Certificates (each
such class, a "Controlled Amortization
Class") may be made, subject to certain
limitations, based on a specified principal
payment schedule. Distributions of principal
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 Offered
Certificates will be made on a pro rata
basis among all of the Certificates of such
class. See "Description of the
Certificates--Distributions of Principal of
the Certificates".
ADVANCES ............... If and to the extent provided in the related
Prospectus Supplement, if a Trust Fund
includes Mortgage Loans, the Master
Servicer, a Special Servicer, the Trustee,
any provider of Credit Support and/or any
other specified person may be obligated to
make, or have the option of making, certain
advances with respect to delinquent
scheduled payments of principal and/or
interest on such Mortgage Loans. Any such
advances made with respect to a particular
Mortgage Loan will be reimbursable from
subsequent recoveries in respect of such
Mortgage Loan and otherwise to the extent
described herein and in the related
Prospectus Supplement. If and to the extent
provided in the Prospectus Supplement for a
series of Certificates, any entity making
such advances may be entitled to receive
interest thereon for the period that such
advances are outstanding, payable from
amounts in the related Trust Fund. See
"Description of the Certificates--Advances
in Respect of Delinquencies". If a Trust
Fund includes MBS, any comparable advancing
obligation of a party to the related Pooling
Agreement, or of a party to the related MBS
Agreement, will be described in the related
Prospectus Supplement.
TERMINATION ............ If so specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, a series of Certificates may be
subject to optional early termination
through
14
<PAGE>
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 related 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. See "Description of the
Certificates--Termination".
REGISTRATION OF
BOOK-ENTRY
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 (collectively,
"Book-Entry Certificates") through the
facilities of The Depository Trust Company
("DTC"). Each class of Book-Entry
Certificates will be initially represented
by one or more Certificates registered in
the name of a nominee of DTC. No person
acquiring an interest in a class of
Book-Entry Certificates (a "Certificate
Owner") will be entitled to receive
Certificates of such class in fully
registered, definitive form ("Definitive
Certificates"), except under the limited
circumstances described herein. See "Risk
Factors-- Book-Entry Registration" and
"Description of the Certificates--
Book-Entry Registration and Definitive
Certificates".
CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME
TAX CONSEQUENCES ...... The federal income tax consequences to
Certificateholders will vary depending on
whether one or more elections are made to
treat the Trust Fund or specified portions
thereof as one or more "real estate mortgage
investment conduits" (each, a "REMIC") under
the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The
Prospectus Supplement for each series of
Certificates will specify whether one or
more such elections will be made. See
"Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences".
ERISA CONSIDERATIONS ... Fiduciaries of employee benefit plans and
certain other retirement plans and
arrangements, including individual
retirement accounts, annuities, Keogh plans,
and collective investment funds and
insurance company general and separate
accounts in which such plans, accounts,
annuities or arrangements are invested, that
are subject to the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
("ERISA"), or Section 4975 of the Code,
should carefully review with their legal
advisors whether the purchase or holding of
Offered Certificates could give rise to a
transaction that is prohibited or is not
otherwise permissible either under ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code. See "ERISA
Considerations" herein and in the related
Prospectus Supplement.
15
<PAGE>
LEGAL INVESTMENT ....... The Offered Certificates will constitute
"mortgage related securities" for purposes
of the Secondary Mortgage Market Enhancement
Act of 1984 only if so specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement. Investors
whose investment authority is subject to
legal restrictions should consult their own
legal advisors to determine whether and to
what extent the Offered Certificates
constitute legal investments for them. See
"Legal Investment" herein and in the related
Prospectus Supplement.
RATING ................. At their respective dates of issuance, each
class of Offered Certificates will be rated
not lower than investment grade by one or
more nationally recognized statistical
rating agencies (each, a "Rating Agency").
See "Rating" herein and in the related
Prospectus Supplement.
16
<PAGE>
RISK FACTORS
In considering an investment in the Offered Certificates of any series,
investors should consider, among other things, the following risk factors and
any other factors set forth under the heading "Risk Factors" in the related
Prospectus Supplement. 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.
SECONDARY MARKET
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. The Prospectus Supplement for any
series of Offered Certificates may indicate that an underwriter specified
therein intends to make a secondary market in such Offered Certificates;
however, no underwriter will be obligated to do so. Any such secondary market
may provide less liquidity to investors than any comparable market for
securities that evidence interests in single-family mortgage loans.
The primary source of ongoing 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 to be 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 ongoing information regarding the Offered
Certificates of any series will be available through any other source. The
limited nature of such information in respect of a series of Offered
Certificates may adversely affect the liquidity thereof, even if a secondary
market for such Certificates does develop.
Insofar as a secondary market does develop with respect to any series of
Offered Certificates or class thereof, the market value of such Certificates
will be affected by several factors, including the perceived liquidity
thereof, the anticipated cash flow thereon (which may vary widely depending
upon the prepayment and default assumptions applied in respect of the
underlying Mortgage Loans) and prevailing interest rates. The price payable
at any given time in respect of certain classes of Offered Certificates (in
particular, a class with a relatively long average life, a Companion Class or
a class of Stripped Interest Certificates or Stripped Principal Certificates)
may be extremely sensitive to small fluctuations in prevailing interest
rates; and the relative change in price for an Offered Certificate in
response to an upward or downward movement in prevailing interest rates may
not necessarily equal the relative change in price for such Offered
Certificate in response to an equal but opposite movement in such rates.
Accordingly, the sale of Offered Certificates by a holder in any secondary
market that may develop may be at a discount from the price paid by such
holder. The Depositor is not aware of any source through which price
information about the Offered Certificates will be generally available on an
ongoing basis.
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
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 or entity; 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 a series of Offered Certificates, no other assets will be
available for payment of the deficiency. Additionally, certain amounts on
deposit from time to time in certain funds or accounts constituting part of a
Trust Fund, including the Certificate Account and any accounts maintained as
Credit
17
<PAGE>
Support, may be withdrawn under certain conditions, as described in the
related Prospectus Supplement, for purposes other than the payment of
principal of or interest on the related series of Certificates. If and to the
extent 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, all or a portion of 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; AVERAGE LIFE OF CERTIFICATES; YIELDS
As a result of, among other things, prepayments on the Mortgage Loans in
any Trust Fund, the amount and timing of distributions of principal and/or
interest on the Offered Certificates 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 series of Certificates than if payments on such Mortgage Loans were
made as scheduled. Thus, the prepayment experience on the Mortgage Loans in a
Trust Fund may affect the average life of one or more classes of Certificates
of the related series, 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, then, subject to, among other things, the
particular terms of the Mortgage Loans (e.g., provisions that prohibit
voluntary prepayments during specified periods or impose penalties in
connection therewith) and the ability of borrowers to get new financing,
principal prepayments on such Mortgage Loans are likely to be higher than if
prevailing interest 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, then principal prepayments on such Mortgage Loans 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 actual rate of
prepayment on the Mortgage Loans in any Trust Fund or that such rate of
prepayment 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
than expected.
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 a pro
rata share of the prepayments 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. A class of Certificates that entitles the holders thereof to a
disproportionately large share of the prepayments on the Mortgage Loans in
the related Trust Fund increases the likelihood of early retirement of such
class ("call risk") if the rate of prepayment is relatively fast; while a
class of Certificates that entitles the holders thereof to a
disproportionately small share of the prepayments on the Mortgage Loans in
the related Trust Fund increases the likelihood of an extended average life
of such class ("extension risk") if the rate of prepayment is relatively
slow. 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, which will entitle the holders thereof to receive principal
distributions according to a specified principal payment schedule. Although
prepayment risk cannot be eliminated entirely for any class of Certificates,
a Controlled Amortization Class will generally provide a relatively stable
cash flow so long as the actual rate of
18
<PAGE>
prepayment 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.
Prepayment risk with respect to a given Mortgage Asset Pool does not
disappear, however, and the stability 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 may 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/or may
entitle the holders thereof to a disproportionately small share of
prepayments on the Mortgage Loans in the related Trust Fund when the rate of
prepayment is relatively slow. As and to the extent described in the related
Prospectus Supplement, a Companion Class absorbs some (but not all) of the
"call risk" and/or "extension risk" that would otherwise belong to the
related Controlled Amortization Class if all payments of principal of the
Mortgage Loans in the related Trust Fund were allocated on a pro rata basis.
A series of Certificates may 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 and, 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 recover its original
investment under some prepayment scenarios. 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 they are purchased at a discount
or premium and the amount and timing of distributions thereon. 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 than the anticipated yield. See "Yield and Maturity
Considerations" herein.
LIMITED NATURE OF RATINGS
Any rating assigned by a Rating Agency to a class of Offered Certificates
will reflect only its assessment of the likelihood that holders of such
Offered Certificates 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. Furthermore, such
rating will not address the possibility that prepayment of 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 recover 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".
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH CERTAIN MORTGAGE LOANS AND MORTGAGED PROPERTIES
A description of risks associated with investments in mortgage loans is
included herein under "Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage Loans". Mortgage
loans made on the security of multifamily or
19
<PAGE>
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 an owner- occupied
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 or a small
number of significant tenants. Accordingly, a decline in the financial
condition of the borrower or a significant 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.
In addition, additional risk may be presented by the type and use of a
particular Mortgaged Property. For instance, Mortgaged Properties that
operate as hospitals and nursing homes may present special risks to lenders
due to the significant governmental regulation of the ownership, operation,
maintenance and financing of health care institutions. Hotel and motel
properties are often operated pursuant to franchise, management or operating
agreements that may be terminable by the franchisor or operator. 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. The ability of a borrower to repay a Mortgage Loan
secured by shares allocable to one or more cooperative dwelling units may be
dependent upon the ability of the dwelling units to generate sufficient
rental income, which may be subject to rent control or stabilization laws, to
cover both debt service on the loan as well as maintenance charges to the
cooperative. Further, a Mortgage Loan secured by cooperative shares is
subordinate to the mortgage, if any, on the cooperative apartment building.
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 any such Mortgage Loan, 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. See "Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage Loans--
Foreclosure".
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.
BALLOON PAYMENTS; BORROWER DEFAULT
Certain of the Mortgage Loans included in a Trust Fund may be
non-amortizing or only partially amortizing over their terms to maturity and,
thus, will require substantial principal payments (that is, balloon payments)
at their 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
refinance the loan or to sell the related Mortgaged Property. The ability of
a borrower to accomplish either of these goals will be affected by a number
of factors, including the
20
<PAGE>
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 the related Mortgaged Property, tax laws, rent control laws
(with respect to certain residential properties), Medicaid and Medicare
reimbursement rates (with respect to hospitals and nursing homes), prevailing
general economic conditions and the availability of credit for loans secured
by multifamily or commercial, as the case may be, real properties generally.
Neither the Depositor nor any of its affiliates will be required to refinance
any Mortgage Loan.
If and to the extent described herein and 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 or a Special
Servicer generally will be required to determine that any such extension or
modification is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery, taking into
account the time value of money, 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.
CREDIT SUPPORT LIMITATIONS
The Prospectus Supplement for a series of Certificates 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 later
paid classes of Certificates of such series has been repaid in full. 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 later right 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 certain other factors. There can, however, be no assurance that the loss
experience on the related Mortgage Assets will not exceed such assumed
levels. See "--Limited Nature of Ratings", "Description of the Certificates"
and "Description of Credit Support".
LEASES AND RENTS
Each Mortgage Loan included in any Trust Fund secured by Mortgaged
Property that is subject to leases 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
21
<PAGE>
respect of the borrower, the lenders ability to collect the rents may be
adversely affected. See "Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage Loans--Leases and
Rents".
ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS
Under the laws of certain states, 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 various federal, state and local laws,
ordinances and regulations, an owner or operator of real estate may be liable
for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous substances or toxic
substances on, in or beneath such property. Such liability may be imposed
without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the
presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. The cost of any required
remediation and the owner or operator's liability therefor as to any property
is generally not limited under such laws, ordinances and regulations and
could exceed the value of the mortgaged property and the aggregate assets of
the owner or operator. In addition, as to the owners or operators of
mortgaged properties that generate hazardous substances that are disposed of
at "off-site" locations, such owners or operators may be held strictly,
jointly and severally liable if there are releases or threatened releases of
hazardous substances at the off-site locations where such person's hazardous
substances were disposed.
Although the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and
Liability Act of 1980, as amended ("CERCLA"), provides an exemption from the
definition of "owner" for lenders whose primary indicia of ownership in a
particular property is the holding of a security interest, lenders may
forfeit, as a result of their actions with respect to particular borrowers,
their secured creditor exemption and be deemed an owner or operator of
property such that they are liable for remediation costs. See "Certain Legal
Aspects of Mortgage Loans--Environmental Risks" herein. A lender also risks
such liability on foreclosure of the mortgage. Unless otherwise specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement, if a Trust Fund includes Mortgage Loans,
then 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 audits, has made the determination that it
is appropriate to do so, as described under "Description of the Pooling
Agreements--Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans". See "Certain Legal
Aspects of Mortgage Loans--Environmental Risks". There can be no assurance
that any such requirements of a Pooling Agreement will effectively insulate
the related Trust Fund from potential liability for a materially adverse
environmental condition at a Mortgaged Property.
SPECIAL HAZARD LOSSES
Unless otherwise specified in a Prospectus Supplement, the Master Servicer
for the related Trust Fund will be required to cause the borrower on each
Mortgage Loan in such Trust Fund to maintain such insurance coverage in
respect of the related Mortgaged Property as is required under the related
Mortgage, including hazard insurance; provided that, as and to the extent
described herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Master
Servicer may satisfy its obligation to cause hazard insurance to be
maintained with respect to any Mortgaged Property through acquisition of a
blanket policy. 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. Unless the related Mortgage
specifically requires the mortgagor to insure against physical damage arising
from such causes, then, to the extent any consequent losses are not covered
by Credit Support, such losses may be borne, at least in part, by the holders
of one or more classes of Offered Certificates of the related series. See
"Description of the Pooling Agreements--Hazard Insurance Policies".
22
<PAGE>
ERISA CONSIDERATIONS
Generally, ERISA applies to investments made by employee benefit plans and
transactions involving the assets of such plans. Due to the complexity of
regulations 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".
CERTAIN FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING RESIDUAL CERTIFICATES
Holders of 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 in "Certain Federal Income Tax
Consequences-- Federal Income Tax Consequences for REMIC Certificates".
Accordingly, under certain circumstances, holders of Offered Certificates
that constitute 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
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 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 Residual Certificates may be limited in their ability
to deduct servicing fees and other expenses of the REMIC. In addition,
Residual Certificates are subject to certain restrictions on transfer.
Because of the special tax treatment of Residual Certificates, the taxable
income arising in a given year on a 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 the Residual Certificate may be
significantly less than that of a corporate bond or stripped instrument
having similar cash flow characteristics.
CERTAIN FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT
Accrual Certificates will be, and certain of the other Classes of
Certificates of a series may be, issued with "original issue discount" for
federal income tax purposes, which generally will result in recognition of
some taxable income in advance of the receipt of cash attributable to such
income. See "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences--Federal Income Tax
Consequences for REMIC Certificates-- Taxation of Regular Certificates".
BOOK-ENTRY REGISTRATION
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.
Conveyance of notices and other communications 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 suffer 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".
23
<PAGE>
DELINQUENT AND NON-PERFORMING 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 past
due or are non-performing. If so specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the servicing of such Mortgage Loans may 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 or
non-performing 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 Assets in such Trust
Fund and the yield on the Offered Certificates of such series. See
"Description of the Trust Funds--Mortgage Loans--General".
DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUST FUNDS
GENERAL
The primary assets of each Trust Fund will consist of (i) various types of
multifamily or commercial mortgage loans (the "Mortgage Loans"), (ii)
mortgage participations, pass-through certificates or other 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 (iii) a combination of Mortgage Loans and MBS (collectively, "Mortgage
Assets"). Each Trust Fund will be established by Chase Commercial Mortgage
Securities Corp. (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 fee or leasehold estates
in 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) office buildings,
retail stores and establishments, hotels or motels, nursing homes, hospitals
or other health-care related facilities, mobile home parks, warehouse
facilities, mini-warehouse facilities, self-storage facilities, industrial
plants, parking lots, mixed use or various other types of income-producing
properties or unimproved land ("Commercial Properties"). The Multifamily
Properties may include mixed commercial and residential structures, apartment
buildings owned by private cooperative housing corporations ("Cooperatives"),
and shares of the Cooperative allocable to one or more dwelling units
occupied by non-owner tenants or to vacant units. Unless otherwise specified
in the related Prospectus Supplement, each Mortgage will create a first
priority mortgage lien on a borrower's fee estate in a Mortgaged Property. If
a Mortgage creates a lien on a borrower's leasehold estate in a property,
then, unless otherwise 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. Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, each Mortgage Loan will have been originated by a person (the
"Originator") other than the Depositor; however, the Originator may be or may
have been an affiliate of the Depositor.
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
24
<PAGE>
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 factor in evaluating the
risk of default on such a loan. Unless otherwise defined 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 derived from
the related Mortgaged Property for a twelve-month period to (ii) the
annualized scheduled payments on the Mortgage Loan and any other loans senior
thereto that are secured by the related Mortgaged Property. Unless otherwise
defined 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 the related Mortgage Loan or on any other loans that
are secured by such 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, with respect to a Mortgage
Loan secured by a Cooperative apartment building, 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 small
number of tenants. Thus, the Net Operating Income of such a Mortgaged
Property may depend substantially on the financial condition of the borrower
or a 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
factor in evaluating risk of loss if a property must be liquidated following
a default. Unless otherwise defined 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 any other loans senior thereto that are secured by the
related Mortgaged Property to (ii) the Value of the related 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
25
<PAGE>
Ratio, the greater the percentage of the borrower's equity in a Mortgaged
Property, and thus (a) the greater the incentive of the borrower to perform
under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan (in order to protect such
equity) and (b) 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, the real estate market and other factors
described herein. 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
and discount 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 can be
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 Mortgaged
Properties" and "--Balloon Payments; Borrower Default".
Payment Provisions of the Mortgage Loans. Unless otherwise specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement, all of the Mortgage Loans will (i) have
had individual principal balances at origination of not less than $25,000,
(ii) have had original terms to maturity of not more than 40 years and (iii)
provide for scheduled payments of principal, interest or both, to be made on
specified dates ("Due Dates") that occur monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or
annually. A Mortgage Loan (i) may provide for no accrual of interest or for
accrual of interest thereon at an interest rate (a "Mortgage Rate") that is
fixed over its term or that adjusts from time to time, or that may be
converted 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 or partially amortizing or non-amortizing, with a balloon payment
due on its stated maturity date, and (iv) may prohibit over its term or for a
certain period prepayments (the period of such prohibition, a "Lock-out
Period" and its date of expiration, a "Lock-out Date") and/or require payment
of a premium or a yield maintenance penalty (a "Prepayment Premium") in
connection with certain prepayments, 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 appreciation of the related Mortgaged
Property, or profits realized from the operation or disposition of such
Mortgaged Property or the benefit, if any, resulting from the refinancing of
the Mortgage Loan (any such provision, 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 in addition to payments of interest on
and/or principal of such Offered Certificates, 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
in the related Trust Fund, which will generally be current as of a date
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement and which, to the extent then
26
<PAGE>
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 earliest and latest origination date and maturity
date of the Mortgage Loans, (iv) the original and remaining terms to maturity
of the Mortgage Loans, or the respective ranges thereof, and the weighted
average original and remaining terms to maturity of the Mortgage Loans, (v)
the original Loan-to-Value Ratios of the Mortgage Loans, or the range
thereof, and the weighted average original Loan-to-Value Ratio of the
Mortgage Loans, (vi) the Mortgage Rates borne by the Mortgage Loans, or range
thereof, and the weighted average Mortgage Rate borne by the Mortgage Loans,
(vii) 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 adjustments at the time of any
adjustment and over the life of the ARM Loan, (viii) information regarding
the payment characteristics of the Mortgage Loans, including, without
limitation, balloon payment and other amortization provisions, Lock-out
Periods and Prepayment Premiums, (ix) the Debt Service Coverage Ratios of the
Mortgage Loans (either at origination or as of a more recent date), or the
range thereof, and the weighted average of such Debt Service Coverage Ratios,
and (x) the geographic distribution of the Mortgaged Properties on a
state-by-state basis. 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 or (ii) certificates insured or guaranteed by FHLMC, FNMA, GNMA or
FAMC provided that, unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, 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 of the MBS (the "MBS Issuer")
and/or the servicer of the underlying mortgage loans (the "MBS Servicer")
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 Issuer, 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
27
<PAGE>
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 type of mortgage loans underlying the MBS and,
to the extent available to the Depositor and appropriate under the
circumstances, such other information in respect of the underlying mortgage
loans described under "--Mortgage Loans--Mortgage Loan Information in
Prospectus Supplements", and (x) the characteristics of any cash flow
agreements that relate to the MBS.
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 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 obligations acceptable to each Rating Agency rating one
or more classes of the related series of Offered Certificates.
CREDIT SUPPORT
If so provided in the Prospectus Supplement for a series of Certificates,
partial or full protection against certain defaults and losses on the
Mortgage Assets in the related Trust Fund may be provided to one or more
classes of Certificates of such series in the form of subordination of one or
more other classes of Certificates of such series or by one or more other
types of credit support, such as a letter of credit, insurance policy,
guarantee or reserve fund, among others, or a combination thereof (any such
coverage with respect to the Certificates of any series, "Credit Support").
The amount and types of Credit Support, the identification 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 a series of Certificates. See "Risk Factors--Credit Support
Limitations" and "Description of Credit Support".
CASH FLOW AGREEMENTS
If so provided in the Prospectus Supplement for a series of Certificates,
the related Trust Fund may include guaranteed investment contracts pursuant
to which moneys held in the funds and accounts established for such series
will be invested at a specified rate. The Trust Fund may also include certain
other agreements, such as interest rate exchange agreements, interest rate
cap or floor agreements, currency exchange agreements or other 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 Prospectus
Supplement for a series of Certificates.
28
<PAGE>
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 an 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 of the related series.
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 any series of Certificates will specify
the Pass-Through Rate for each class of Offered Certificates of such series
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 on the amount of such prepayment
only through the date of such prepayment, instead of through the Due Date for
the next succeeding 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 Mortgage Loans to their
respective Due Dates during the related Due Period. Unless otherwise
specified in the Prospectus Supplement for a series of Certificates, a "Due
Period" is a specified time period generally corresponding in length to the
time period between Distribution Dates, and all scheduled payments on the
Mortgage Loans in the related Trust Fund that are due during a given Due
Period will, to the extent received by a specified date (the "Determination
Date") or otherwise advanced by the related Master Servicer or other
specified person, be distributed to the holders of the Certificates of such
series on the next succeeding Distribution Date. 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 to the Due Date for such Mortgage Loan in the related Due
Period, then 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 each 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
Prospectus Supplement for
29
<PAGE>
a series of Certificates, the Master Servicer for such series 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 in any Trust Fund will in turn be affected by the amortization
schedules thereof (which, in the case of ARM Loans, may change periodically
to accommodate adjustments to the Mortgage Rates thereon), 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 related 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
described more fully below), no assurance can be given as to such rate.
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). 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 on such Mortgage Loans could result in an actual yield to
such investor that is lower than the anticipated yield. In addition, if an
investor purchases an Offered Certificate at a discount (or premium), and
principal payments are made in reduction of the principal balance or notional
amount of such investor's Offered Certificates at a rate slower (or faster)
than the rate anticipated by the investor during any particular period, the
consequent adverse effects on such investor's yield would not be fully offset
by a subsequent like increase (or decrease) 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 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 Certificates of any series to receive distributions in respect of
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 inversely related to the rate at which payments and
other collections of principal are received on such Mortgage Assets or
distributions are made in reduction of the Certificate Balances of such
classes of Certificates, as the case may be.
Consistent with the foregoing, 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
30
<PAGE>
Loans will negatively affect the yield to investors in Stripped Interest
Certificates. If the Offered Certificates of a series include any such
Certificates, the related Prospectus Supplement will include a table showing
the effect of various assumed levels of prepayment on yields on such
Certificates. Such tables will be intended to illustrate the sensitivity of
yields to various assumed prepayment rates and will not be intended to
predict, or to provide information that will enable investors to predict,
yields or prepayment rates.
The Depositor is not aware of any relevant publicly available or
authoritative statistics with respect to the historical prepayment experience
of a 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. Even in the case of ARM Loans, as prevailing market interest
rates decline, and without regard to whether the Mortgage Rates on such ARM
Loans decline in a manner consistent therewith, the related borrowers 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 a different index, margin or rate cap or floor 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 allocable as principal 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
31
<PAGE>
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, which will entitle the holders thereof to receive principal
distributions according to a specified principal payment schedule, which
schedule is supported by creating priorities, as and to the extent described
in the related Prospectus Supplement, to receive principal payments from the
Mortgage Loans in the related Trust Fund. Unless otherwise specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement, each Controlled Amortization Class will either
be a Planned Amortization Class (a "PAC") or a Targeted Amortization Class (a
"TAC"). In general, a PAC has a "prepayment collar" (that is, a range of
prepayment rates that can be sustained without disruption) that determines
the principal cash flow of such Certificates. Such a prepayment collar is not
static, and may expand or contract after the issuance of the PAC depending on
the actual prepayment experience for the underlying Mortgage Loans.
Distributions of principal on a PAC would be made in accordance with the
specified schedule so long as prepayments on the underlying Mortgage Loans
remain at a relatively constant rate within the prepayment collar and, as
described below, Companion Classes exist to absorb "excesses" or "shortfalls"
in principal payments on the underlying Mortgage Loans. If the rate of
prepayment on the underlying Mortgage Loans from time to time falls outside
the prepayment collar, or fluctuates significantly within the prepayment
collar, especially for any extended period of time, such an event may have
material consequences in respect of the anticipated weighted average life and
maturity for a PAC. A TAC is structured so that principal distributions
generally will be payable thereon in accordance with its specified principal
payments schedule so long as the rate of prepayments on the related Mortgage
Assets remains relatively constant at the particular rate used in
establishing such schedule. A TAC will generally afford the holders thereof
some protection against early retirement or some protection against an
extended average life, but not both.
Although prepayment risk cannot be eliminated entirely for any class of
Certificates, a Controlled Amortization Class will generally provide a
relatively stable cash flow so long as the actual rate of prepayment 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. Prepayment risk
with respect to a given Mortgage Asset Pool does not disappear, however, and
the stability 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 particularly 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 will entitle the holders
thereof to a disproportionately small share of prepayments on the Mortgage
Loans in the related Trust Fund when the rate of prepayment is relatively
slow. A class of Certificates that entitles
32
<PAGE>
the holders thereof to a disproportionately large share of the prepayments on
the Mortgage Loans in the related Trust Fund enhances the risk of early
retirement of such class ("call risk") if the rate of prepayment is
relatively fast; while a class of Certificates that entitles the holders
thereof to a disproportionately small share of the prepayments on the
Mortgage Loans in the related Trust Fund enhances the risk of an extended
average life of such class ("extension risk") if the rate of prepayment is
relatively slow. Thus, as and to the extent described in the related
Prospectus Supplement, a Companion Class absorbs some (but not all) of the
"call risk" and/or "extension risk" that would otherwise belong to the
related Controlled Amortization Class if all payments of principal of the
Mortgage Loans in the related Trust Fund were allocated on a pro rata basis.
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 to occur. A Mortgage Loan that provides for the payment of
interest calculated at a rate lower than the rate at which interest accrues
thereon would be expected during a period of increasing interest rates to
amortize at a slower rate (and perhaps not at all) than if interest rates
were declining or were remaining constant. Such slower rate of Mortgage Loan
amortization would correspondingly be reflected in a slower rate of
amortization for one or more classes of Certificates of the related series.
In addition, negative amortization on one or more Mortgage Loans in any Trust
Fund may result in negative amortization on the Certificates of the related
series. 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. The portion of any Mortgage Loan negative amortization
allocated to a class of Certificates may result in a deferral of some or all
of the interest payable thereon, which deferred interest may be added to the
Certificate Balance thereof. 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
that would bear the effects of a slower rate of amortization on such Mortgage
Loans) may increase as a result of such feature.
Negative amortization also may occur in respect of an ARM Loan that limits
the amount by which its scheduled payment may adjust in response to a change
in its Mortgage Rate, provides that its scheduled payment will adjust less
frequently than its Mortgage Rate or provides for constant scheduled payments
notwithstanding adjustments to its Mortgage Rate. Accordingly, 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, thereby resulting in the accelerated amortization of such
Mortgage Loan. Any such acceleration in amortization of its principal balance
will shorten the weighted average life of such Mortgage Loan and,
correspondingly, the weighted average lives of those classes of Certificates
entitled to a portion of the principal payments on such Mortgage Loan.
The extent to which the yield on any Offered Certificate will be affected
by the inclusion in the related Trust Fund of Mortgage Loans that permit
negative amortization, will depend upon (i) whether
33
<PAGE>
such Offered Certificate was purchased at a premium or a discount and (ii)
the extent to which the payment characteristics of such Mortgage Loans delay
or accelerate the distributions of principal on such Certificate (or, in the
case of a Stripped Interest Certificate, delay or accelerate the amortization
of the notional amount thereof). See "--Yield and Prepayment Considerations"
above.
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 be effected by a reduction in the entitlements to
interest and/or Certificate Balances of one or more such classes of
Certificates, or by establishing a priority 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 during specified periods 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. Unless otherwise specified 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 accrued on the 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.
Optional Early 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 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
34
<PAGE>
party specified therein may be authorized or required to solicit bids for the
purchase of all of the Mortgage Assets of the related 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 absence
of other factors, any such early retirement of a class of Offered
Certificates would shorten the weighted average life thereof and, if such
Certificates were purchased at premium, reduce the yield thereon.
THE DEPOSITOR
Chase Commercial Mortgage Securities Corp., the Depositor, is a New York
corporation organized on August 2, 1993 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Chemical Bank. Later this year, The Chase Manhattan Bank (National
Association) will be merged with and into Chemical Bank, a New York bank, and
Chemical Bank will then change its name to The Chase Manhattan Bank. The
Depositor maintains its principal office at 380 Madison Avenue, New York, New
York 10017-2951. Its telephone number is (212) 622-3510. 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
Each series of Certificates will represent the entire beneficial ownership
interest in the Trust Fund created pursuant to the related Pooling Agreement.
As described in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Certificates of each
series, including the Offered Certificates of such series, may consist of one
or more classes of Certificates that, among other things: (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 interest thereon or
principal thereof 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 thereof 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;
(vii) provide for distributions of principal thereof to be made, subject to
available funds, based on a specified principal payment schedule or other
methodology; or (viii) provide for distributions based on collections on the
Mortgage Assets in the related Trust Fund attributable to Prepayment Premiums
and Equity Participations.
Each class of Offered Certificates of a series will be issued in minimum
denominations corresponding to the principal balances or, in case of certain
classes of Stripped Interest Certificates or 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 charges, 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" 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. Unless
otherwise 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 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 holders of Certificates 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
36
<PAGE>
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 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 classes of Residual Certificates
that have no Pass-Through Rate) may have a different Pass-Through Rate, which
in each case 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 any class of Certificates (other
than certain classes 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 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 certain classes of Residual Certificates), the "Accrued
Certificate Interest" for each Distribution Date will be equal to interest at
the applicable Pass-Through Rate accrued for a specified period (generally
equal to the time period between Distribution Dates) on the outstanding
Certificate Balance of such class of Certificates immediately prior to such
Distribution Date. Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the Accrued Certificate Interest for each Distribution Date on a
class of 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, all or a portion of the Master Servicer's servicing
compensation) that are applied to offset the amount of 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 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
37
<PAGE>
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 PRINCIPAL ON THE CERTIFICATES
Each class of Certificates of each series (other than certain classes of
Stripped Interest Certificates and certain classes of 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 being 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. The initial Certificate Balance
of each class of a series of Certificates will be specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement. 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.
Distributions of principal with respect to one or more classes of
Certificates 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 the Mortgage Assets in the related Trust Fund.
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. Distributions of principal 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 Offered 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)
38
<PAGE>
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 be effected by a reduction in the
entitlements to interest and/or Certificate Balances of one or more such
classes of Certificates, or by establishing a priority of payments among such
classes of Certificates.
ADVANCES IN RESPECT OF DELINQUENCIES
If and to the extent provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, if a
Trust Fund includes Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer, a Special Servicer,
the Trustee, any provider of Credit Support and/or any other specified person
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.
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 out of a specific entity'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 a Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Trustee if, in
the good faith judgment of the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Trustee,
as the case may be, 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,
Special Servicer or Trustee, a Nonrecoverable Advance will be reimbursable
thereto 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 by a Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Trustee
or other entity from excess funds in a Certificate Account, such Master
Servicer, Special Servicer, Trustee or other entity, as the case may be, will
be required to replace such funds in such Certificate Account on any future
Distribution Date to the extent that funds in such Certificate Account on
such Distribution Date are less than payments required to be made to the
related series of Certificateholders on such date. If so specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement, the obligation of a Master Servicer, Special
Servicer, Trustee or other entity 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 the related series of
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,
39
<PAGE>
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 such class of
Offered Certificates that was applied to reduce the Certificate Balance
thereof;
(ii) the amount of such distribution to holders of such class of
Offered Certificates that is allocable to Accrued Certificate Interest;
(iii) the amount, if any, of such distribution to holders of such
class of Offered Certificates that is allocable to (A) Prepayment Premiums
and (B) payments on account of Equity Participations;
(iv) the amount, if any, by which such distribution is less than the
amounts to which holders of such class of Offered Certificates are
entitled;
(v) if the related Trust Fund includes Mortgage Loans, the aggregate
amount of advances included in such distribution;
(vi) if the related Trust Fund includes Mortgage Loans, the amount of
servicing compensation received by the related Master Servicer (and, if
payable directly out of the related Trust Fund, by any Special Servicer
and any Sub-Servicer) and such other customary information as the
reporting party deems necessary or desirable, or that a Certificateholder
reasonably requests, to enable Certificateholders to prepare their tax
returns;
(vii) information regarding the aggregate principal balance of the
related Mortgage Assets on or about such Distribution Date;
(viii) if the related Trust Fund includes Mortgage Loans, information
regarding the number and aggregate principal balance of such Mortgage
Loans that are delinquent in varying degrees;
(ix) if the related Trust Fund includes Mortgage Loans, information
regarding the aggregate amount of losses incurred and principal
prepayments made with respect to such Mortgage Loans during the related
Prepayment Period (that is, the specified period, generally equal in
length to the time period between Distribution Dates, during which
prepayments and other unscheduled collections on the Mortgage Loans in the
related Trust Fund must be received in order to be distributed on a
particular Distribution Date);
(x) 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 or
Notional Amount due to the allocation of any losses in respect of the
related Mortgage Assets, any increase in such Certificate Balance or
Notional Amount due to the allocation of any negative amortization in
respect of the related Mortgage Assets and any increase in the Certificate
Balance of a class of Accrual Certificates, if any, in the event that
Accrued Certificate Interest has been added to such balance;
(xi) 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;
(xii) 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;
(xiii) 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; and
(xiv) to the extent not otherwise reflected through the information
furnished pursuant to subclauses (viii) and (x) above, the amount of
Credit Support being afforded by any classes of Subordinate Certificates.
40
<PAGE>
In the case of information furnished pursuant to subclauses (i)-(iii)
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 Certificates may describe additional information to be included in
reports to the holders of the Offered Certificates of such series.
Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year,
the Master Servicer or Trustee for a series of Certificates, 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 of such series a
statement containing the information set forth in subclauses (i)-(iii) 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 not have a right to vote, except 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 right
to act as a group to remove the related Trustee and also upon the occurrence
of certain events which if continuing would constitute an Event of Default on
the part of the related 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 following (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 payment to the Certificateholders of that series of all amounts
required to be paid to them pursuant to such Pooling Agreement. 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 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 designated therein
may be authorized or required to solicit bids for the purchase of all the
Mortgage Assets of the related 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.
41
<PAGE>
BOOK-ENTRY REGISTRATION AND DEFINITIVE CERTIFICATES
If so provided in the Prospectus Supplement for a series of Certificates,
one or more classes of the Offered Certificates of such 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, 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") is in
turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records.
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 are to 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 has no knowledge of the 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, which may or
may not be the Certificate Owners. The Participants will remain responsible
for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
Conveyance of notices and other communications 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), 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.
Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the only
"Certificateholder" (as such term is used in the related Pooling Agreement)
will be the nominee of DTC, and the Certificate
42
<PAGE>
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.
Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
Certificates initially issued in book-entry form will be issued as 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 discharge properly 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 registration, the Trustee for
the related series 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 may include a Mortgage
Asset Seller as a party, and 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. If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
an affiliate of the Depositor, or the Mortgage Asset Seller or an affiliate
thereof, may perform the functions of Master Servicer or Special Servicer.
Any party to a Pooling Agreement may own Certificates issued thereunder;
however, except with respect to required consents to certain amendments to a
Pooling Agreement, Certificates issued thereunder that are held by the Master
Servicer or Special Servicer for the related series will not be allocated
Voting Rights.
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
43
<PAGE>
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 Chase Commercial Mortgage Securities
Corp., 380 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10017-2951, Attention:
President.
ASSIGNMENT OF MORTGAGE LOANS; REPURCHASES
At the time of issuance of any series of Certificates, the Depositor will
assign (or cause to be assigned) to the designated Trustee the Mortgage Loans
to be included in the related Trust Fund, together with, unless otherwise
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, 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; and the original and outstanding principal balance.
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, unless
otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, 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. Unless otherwise provided in the Prospectus Supplement
for a series of Certificates, the related Pooling Agreement will require that
the Depositor or another party thereto promptly cause each such assignment of
Mortgage to be recorded in the appropriate public office for real property
records.
The Trustee (or a custodian appointed by the Trustee) for a series of
Certificates will be required to review the Mortgage Loan documents delivered
to it within a specified period of days after receipt thereof, and the
Trustee (or such custodian) will hold such documents in trust for the benefit
of the Certificateholders of such series. Unless otherwise specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement, if any such document is found to be missing or
defective, and such omission or defect, as the case may be, materially and
adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders of the related
series, the Trustee (or such custodian) will be required to notify the Master
Servicer and the Depositor, and one of such persons 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, except as
otherwise specified below or in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
Mortgage Asset Seller will be obligated to repurchase the related Mortgage
Loan from the Trustee 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 Mortgage Asset Seller, in lieu of repurchasing a
Mortgage Loan as to which there is missing or defective loan documentation,
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. Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
this repurchase or substitution obligation will constitute the sole remedy to
holders of the Certificates of any series or to the related Trustee on their
behalf for missing or defective loan documentation and neither the Depositor
nor, unless it is the Mortgage Asset Seller, the Master Servicer will be
obligated to purchase or replace a Mortgage Loan if a Mortgage Asset Seller
defaults on its obligation to do so. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a
document has not been delivered to the related Trustee (or to a custodian
appointed by the Trustee) because such document has been submitted for
44
<PAGE>
recording, and neither such document nor a certified copy thereof, in either
case with evidence of recording thereon, can be obtained because of delays on
the part of the applicable recording office, then, unless otherwise specified
in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Mortgage Asset Seller will not be
required to repurchase or replace the affected Mortgage Loan on the basis of
such missing document so long as it continues in good faith to attempt to
obtain such document or such certified copy.
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; REPURCHASES
Unless otherwise provided in the Prospectus Supplement for a series of
Certificates, the Depositor will, with respect to each Mortgage Loan in the
related Trust Fund, make or assign, or cause to be made or assigned, 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. It is expected that in most cases the
Warranting Party will be the Mortgage Asset Seller; however, the Warranting
Party may also be an affiliate of the Mortgage Asset Seller, the Depositor or
an affiliate of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, a Special Servicer or
another person acceptable to the Depositor. The Warranting Party, if other
than the Mortgage Asset Seller, will be identified in the related Prospectus
Supplement.
Unless otherwise provided 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 Certificateholders of
the related series. 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 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. Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
this repurchase or substitution obligation will constitute the sole remedy
available to holders of the Certificates of any series or to the related
Trustee on their behalf for a breach of representation and warranty by a
Warranting Party and neither the Depositor nor the Master Servicer, in either
case unless it is the Warranting Party, will be obligated to purchase or
replace a Mortgage Loan if a Warranting Party defaults on its obligation to
do so.
In some cases, representations and warranties will have been made in
respect of a Mortgage Loan as of a 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 material respects as of the
date of issuance. The date as of which the representations and warranties
regarding the Mortgage Loans in any Trust Fund were made will be specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement.
COLLECTION AND OTHER SERVICING PROCEDURES
The Master Servicer for any Trust Fund, directly or through Sub-Servicers,
will be required to make reasonable efforts to collect all scheduled payments
under the Mortgage Loans in such Trust Fund, and will be required to follow
such collection procedures as it would follow with respect to mortgage loans
that are comparable to the Mortgage Loans in such Trust Fund and held for its
own account, provided such procedures are consistent with (i) the terms of
the related Pooling Agreement and any related instrument
45
<PAGE>
of Credit Support included in such Trust Fund, (ii) applicable law and (iii)
the servicing standard specified in the related Pooling Agreement and
Prospectus Supplement (the "Servicing Standard").
The Master Servicer for any Trust Fund, directly or through Sub-Servicers,
will also be required to perform as to the Mortgage Loans in such Trust Fund
various other customary functions of a servicer of comparable loans,
including maintaining escrow or impound accounts, if required under the
related Pooling Agreement, for payment of taxes, insurance premiums, ground
rents and similar items, or otherwise monitoring the timely payment of those
items; attempting to collect delinquent payments; supervising foreclosures;
negotiating modifications; conducting property inspections on a periodic or
other basis; managing (or overseeing the management of) Mortgaged Properties
acquired on behalf of such Trust Fund through foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of
foreclosure or otherwise (each, an "REO Property"); and maintaining servicing
records relating to such Mortgage Loans. Unless otherwise specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement, 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".
SUB-SERVICERS
A Master Servicer may delegate its servicing obligations in respect of the
Mortgage Loans serviced thereby to one or more third-party servicers (each, a
"Sub-Servicer"); provided that, unless otherwise specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement, such Master Servicer will remain obligated under the
related Pooling Agreement. A Sub-Servicer for any series of Certificates may
be an affiliate of the Depositor or Master Servicer. Unless otherwise
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, each sub-servicing agreement
between a Master Servicer and a Sub-Servicer (a "Sub-Servicing Agreement")
will 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.
A Master Servicer will be required to monitor the performance of Sub-
Servicers retained by it and will have the right to remove a Sub-Servicer
retained by it at any time it considers such removal to be in the best
interests of Certificateholders.
Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, a 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 that retained it 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
To the extent so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, one or
more special servicers (each, a "Special Servicer") may be a party to the
related Pooling Agreement or may be appointed by the Master Servicer or
another specified party. A Special Servicer for any series of Certificates
may be an affiliate of the Depositor or the Master Servicer. A Special
Servicer may be entitled to any of the rights, and subject to any of the
obligations, described herein in respect of a Master Servicer. The related
Prospectus Supplement will describe the rights, obligations and compensation
of any Special Servicer for a particular series of Certificates. The Master
Servicer will be liable for the performance of a Special Servicer only if,
and to the extent, set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement.
CERTIFICATE ACCOUNT
General. The Master Servicer, the Trustee and/or a Special Servicer will,
as to each Trust Fund that includes Mortgage Loans, establish and maintain or
cause to be established and maintained one or more separate accounts for the
collection of payments on or in respect of such 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. A Certificate Account may be maintained
as an interest-bearing or a non-interest-bearing account and the funds held
therein
46
<PAGE>
may be invested pending each succeeding Distribution Date in United States
government securities and other obligations that are acceptable to each
Rating Agency that has rated any one or more classes of Certificates of the
related series ("Permitted Investments"). Unless otherwise provided in the
related Prospectus Supplement, any interest or other income earned on funds
in a Certificate Account will be paid to the related Master Servicer, Trustee
or Special Servicer (if any) as additional compensation. A Certificate
Account may be maintained with the related Master Servicer, Special Servicer
or Mortgage Asset Seller or with a depository institution that is an
affiliate of any of the foregoing or of the Depositor, provided that it
complies with applicable Rating Agency standards. If permitted by the
applicable 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 Special Servicer (if any) or serviced by either on behalf
of others.
Deposits. Unless otherwise provided in the related Pooling Agreement and
described in the related Prospectus Supplement, a Master Servicer, Trustee or
Special Servicer will be required to deposit or cause to be deposited in the
Certificate Account for each Trust Fund that includes Mortgage Loans, within
a certain period following receipt (in the case of collections on or in
respect of the Mortgage Loans) or otherwise as provided in the related
Pooling Agreement, the following payments and collections received or 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 or any Special 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 or in connection with the full or partial
condemnation of a Mortgaged Property (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 and Condemnation
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");
(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";
47
<PAGE>
(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 with respect to 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 that includes Mortgage Loans for any of the following
purposes:
(i) to make distributions to the Certificateholders on each
Distribution Date;
(ii) to pay the Master Servicer, the Trustee or a Special Servicer any
servicing fees not previously retained thereby, such payment to be made
out of payments on the particular Mortgage Loans as to which such fees
were earned;
(iii) to reimburse the Master Servicer, a Special Servicer, the
Trustee or any other specified person for any 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 that were identified and applied by the
Master Servicer or a Special Servicer, as applicable, as late collections
of interest 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;
(iv) to reimburse the Master Servicer, the Trustee 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 and Condemnation 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;
(v) to reimburse the Master Servicer, a Special Servicer, the Trustee
or other specified person for any advances described in clause (iii) above
made by it and/or any servicing expenses referred to in clause (iv) above
incurred by it that, in the good faith judgment of the Master Servicer,
Special Servicer, Trustee or other specified person, as applicable, will
not be recoverable from the amounts described in clauses (iii) and (iv),
respectively, such reimbursement to be made from amounts collected on
other Mortgage Loans in the same 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;
(vi) if and to the extent described in the related Prospectus
Supplement, to pay the Master Servicer, a Special Servicer, the Trustee or
any other specified person interest accrued on the advances described in
clause (iii) above made by it and the servicing expenses described in
clause (iv) above incurred by it while such remain outstanding and
unreimbursed;
48
<PAGE>
(vii) 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";
(viii) to reimburse the Master Servicer, the Special 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";
(ix) if and to the extent described in the related Prospectus
Supplement, to pay the fees of Trustee;
(x) to reimburse the Trustee or any of its directors, officers,
employees and agents, as the case may be, for certain expenses, costs and
liabilities incurred thereby, as and to the extent described under
"--Certain Matters Regarding the Trustee";
(xi) if and to the extent described in the related Prospectus
Supplement, to pay the fees of any provider of Credit Support;
(xii) if and to the extent described in the related Prospectus
Supplement, to reimburse prior draws on any form of Credit Support;
(xiii) to pay the Master Servicer, a Special Servicer or the Trustee,
as appropriate, interest and investment income earned in respect of
amounts held in the Certificate Account as additional compensation;
(xiv) to pay (generally from related income) for costs incurred in
connection with the operation, management and maintenance of any Mortgaged
Property acquired by the Trust Fund by foreclosure or otherwise;
(xv) if one or more elections have been made to treat the Trust Fund
or designated portions thereof as a REMIC, to pay any federal, state or
local taxes imposed on the Trust Fund or its assets or transactions, as
and to the extent described under "Certain Federal Income Tax
Consequences-- Federal Income Tax Consequences for REMIC
Certificates--Taxes That May Be Imposed on the REMIC Pool";
(xvi) to pay for the cost of an independent appraiser or other expert

Certificateholders;
(xviii) to make any other withdrawals permitted by the related Pooling
Agreement and described in the related Prospectus Supplement; and
(xix) to clear and terminate the Certificate Account upon the
termination of the Trust Fund.
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 applicable
Servicing Standard; provided that, unless otherwise set forth in the related
Prospectus Supplement, the modification, waiver or amendment (i) will not
affect the amount or timing of any scheduled payments of principal or
interest on the Mortgage Loan, (ii) will not, 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 and (iii) will not
adversely affect the coverage under any applicable instrument of Credit
Support. Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, 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, (ii)
49
<PAGE>
such modification, waiver or amendment is reasonably likely to produce a
greater recovery with respect to the Mortgage Loan, taking into account the
time value of money, than would liquidation and (iii) such modification,
waiver or amendment will not adversely affect the coverage under any
applicable instrument of Credit Support.
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 insurance premiums and to
otherwise maintain the related Mortgaged Property. In general, the Master
Servicer for a series of Certificates will be required to monitor any
Mortgage Loan in the related Trust Fund 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 related Mortgaged Property for a considerable period of
time, and such Mortgage Loan may be restructured in the resulting bankruptcy
proceedings. 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 the related series of Certificates 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 applicable Servicing Standard, that such a sale would
produce a greater recovery, taking into account the time value of money, than
would liquidation of the related Mortgaged Property. Unless otherwise
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the related Pooling Agreement
will require that the Master Servicer accept the highest cash bid received
from any person (including itself, the Depositor or any affiliate of either
of them 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 against the related Mortgaged Property,
subject to the discussion below.
If a default on a Mortgage Loan has occurred or, in the Master Servicer's
judgment, a payment default is imminent, the Master Servicer, on behalf of
the Trustee, may at any 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. Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the Master Servicer may not, however, acquire title to any
Mortgaged Property, have a receiver of rents appointed with respect to any
Mortgaged Property or take any other action with respect to any Mortgaged
Property that would cause the Trustee, for the benefit of the related series
of Certificateholders, or any other specified person to be considered to hold
title to, to be a "mortgagee-in-possession" of, or to be an "owner" or an
"operator" of such Mortgaged Property within
50
<PAGE>
the meaning of certain federal environmental laws, unless the Master Servicer
has previously determined, based on a report prepared by a person who
regularly conducts environmental audits (which report will be an expense of
the Trust Fund), that either:
(i) the Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable
environmental laws and 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, taking into account the
time value of money, than not taking such actions; and
(ii) 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, taking into
account the time value of money, than not taking such actions. See
"Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage Loans--Environmental Risks".
Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, if title
to any Mortgaged Property is acquired by a Trust Fund as to which one or more
REMIC elections have 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 (or any
designated portion thereof) 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 in connection with such
Mortgage Loan, the Trust Fund will realize a loss in the amount of such
shortfall. The Master Servicer will be entitled to reimbursement out of 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 such that the proceeds, if any,
of the related hazard insurance policy are insufficient to restore fully the
damaged property, the Master Servicer will not be required to expend its own
funds to effect such restoration 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 and Condemnation Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds.
HAZARD INSURANCE POLICIES
Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, each
Pooling Agreement will require the 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.
51
<PAGE>
Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, 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 related
Mortgaged Property. The ability of a Master Servicer to assure that hazard
insurance proceeds are appropriately applied may be dependent upon its being
named as an additional insured under any hazard insurance policy and under
any other insurance policy referred to below, or upon the extent to which
information concerning covered losses is furnished by borrowers. All amounts
collected by a 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 a 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. Accordingly, a Mortgaged Property may not be
insured for losses arising from any such cause unless the related Mortgage
specifically requires, or permits the holder thereof to require, such
coverage.
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. Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, 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
Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, a Master
Servicer's primary servicing compensation with respect to a series of
Certificates will come from the periodic payment to it of a specified portion
of the interest payments on each Mortgage Loan in the related Trust Fund.
Because that compensation is generally based on a percentage of the principal
balance of each such Mortgage
52
<PAGE>
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 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 any Special
Servicer, may be required to be borne by the Trust Fund.
If and to the extent provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, a
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
Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, each
Pooling Agreement will require, on or before a specified date in each year,
the Master Servicer to cause a firm of independent public accountants to
furnish to the Trustee a statement to the effect that, on the basis of the
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 such 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 the firm, either the Audit Program for Mortgages serviced for
FHLMC, or paragraph 4 of the Uniform Single Audit Program for Mortgage
Bankers, requires it to report.
Each Pooling Agreement will also require, on or before a specified date in
each year, the Master Servicer to furnish to the Trustee 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 such Pooling Agreement
throughout the preceding calendar year or other specified twelve month
period.
CERTAIN MATTERS REGARDING THE MASTER SERVICER AND THE DEPOSITOR
The entity serving as 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. Unless otherwise specified
in the Prospectus Supplement for a series of Certificates, the related
Pooling Agreement will permit the Master Servicer to resign from its
obligations thereunder only upon (a) the appointment of, and the acceptance
of such appointment by, a successor thereto and receipt by the Trustee of
written confirmation from each applicable Rating Agency that such resignation
and appointment will not have an adverse effect on the rating assigned by
such Rating Agency to any class of Certificates of such series or (b) 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. 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. Unless
otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Master Servicer
for each Trust Fund will be required to maintain a fidelity bond and errors
and omissions policy or their equivalent that provides coverage against
losses that may be sustained as a result of an officer's or employee's
misappropriation of funds or errors and
53
<PAGE>
omissions, subject to certain limitations as to amount of coverage,
deductible amounts, conditions, exclusions and exceptions permitted by the
related Pooling Agreement.
Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, each
Pooling Agreement will further provide that none of the Master Servicer, the
Depositor or 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 or 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 such 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 otherwise
reimbursable pursuant to such Pooling Agreement; (ii) incurred in connection
with any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant made in such
Pooling Agreement; (iii) incurred by reason of misfeasance, bad faith or
gross negligence in the performance of obligations or duties under such
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
related series of 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 related series of
Certificateholders, and the Master Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may
be, will be entitled to charge the related Certificate Account therefor.
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
Unless otherwise provided in the Prospectus Supplement for a series of
Certificates, "Events of Default" under the related Pooling Agreement will
include (i) any failure by the Master Servicer to distribute or cause to be
distributed to the Certificateholders of such series, or to remit to the
Trustee for distribution to such Certificateholders, any amount required to
be so distributed or remitted, which failure continues unremedied for five
days after written notice thereof 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 related Pooling Agreement, which failure continues
unremedied for sixty days after written notice thereof 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,
54
<PAGE>
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
If an Event of Default occurs with respect to the Master Servicer under a
Pooling Agreement, then, in each and every such case, so long as the Event of
Default remains unremedied, the Depositor or the Trustee will be authorized,
and at the direction of Certificateholders of the related series 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 thereunder regarding delinquent
Mortgage Loans, 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. Unless otherwise specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement, if the Trustee is unwilling or unable so to act, it
may (or, at the written request of Certificateholders of the related series
entitled to not less than 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 applicable Rating Agency
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 of the same series entitled to not less than 25% (or such
other percentage specified in the related Prospectus Supplement) of the
Voting Rights for such 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 respective parties thereto,
without the consent of any of the holders of the related series of
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
specific purpose referred to 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; and provided
further that such amendment (other than an amendment for one of the specific
purposes referred to in clauses (i) through (iv) above) must be acceptable to
each applicable Rating Agency. Unless otherwise specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement, each Pooling Agreement may also be amended by the
respective parties thereto, with the consent of the holders of the
55
<PAGE>
related series of Certificates entitled to not less than 51% (or such other
percentage specified in the related Prospectus Supplement) of the Voting
Rights for such series allocated to the affected classes, for any purpose;
provided that, unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, no such amendment may (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or
delay the timing of, payments received or advanced on Mortgage Loans 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 Prospectus Supplement, the Trustee will be
prohibited from consenting to any amendment of a Pooling Agreement pursuant
to which one or more REMIC elections are to be or have 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 (or designated portion thereof) to
fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the related Certificates are
outstanding.
LIST OF CERTIFICATEHOLDERS
Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, upon
written request of three or more Certificateholders 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 Certificateholders access
during normal business hours to the most recent list of Certificateholders of
that series held by such person. If such list is of a date more than 90 days
prior to the date of receipt of such Certificateholders' request, then such
person, if not the registrar for such series of Certificates, will be
required to request from such registrar a current list and to afford such
requesting Certificateholders access thereto promptly upon receipt.
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 or Special Servicer and its affiliates.
DUTIES OF THE TRUSTEE
The Trustee for each series of Certificates will make no representation as
to the validity or sufficiency of the related Pooling Agreement, the
Certificates or any underlying Mortgage Loan or related document and will not
be accountable for the use or application by or on behalf of the Master
Servicer for such series of any funds paid to the Master Servicer or any
Special Servicer in respect of the Certificates or the underlying Mortgage
Loans, or any funds deposited into or withdrawn from the Certificate Account
or any other account for such series by or on behalf of the Master Servicer
or any Special Servicer. If no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Trustee for each series of Certificates 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 instruments required to be furnished to it pursuant to the related
Pooling Agreement, a Trustee will be required to examine such documents and
to determine whether they conform to the requirements of such agreement.
CERTAIN MATTERS REGARDING THE TRUSTEE
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.
Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
Trustee for each series of Certificates will be entitled to indemnification,
from amounts held in the Certificate Account for such
56
<PAGE>
series, 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
related Pooling Agreement, or to any loss, liability or expense incurred by
reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross 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.
Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
Trustee for each series of Certificates will be entitled to execute any of
its trusts or powers under the related Pooling Agreement or perform any of
its duties thereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys,
and the Trustee will not be responsible for any willful misconduct or gross
negligence on the part of any such agent or attorney appointed by it with due
care.
RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL OF THE TRUSTEE
A Trustee 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 Depositor
(or such other person as may be specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement) will be required to use its best 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.
If at any time a 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. 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 under the related Pooling Agreement and appoint a
successor trustee.
Any resignation or removal of a 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.
Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement for a
series of Certificates, the Credit Support will not provide protection
against all risks of loss and will not guarantee 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 related Credit Support or that are not covered by such
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 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, including (i)
a brief description of its principal business activities, (ii) its principal
place of business, place of incorporation and the jurisdiction under which it
is chartered or licensed to do business, (iii) if applicable, the identity of
regulatory agencies that exercise primary jurisdiction over the conduct of
its business and (iv) its total assets, and its stockholders' 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
method and amount of subordination provided by a class or classes of
Subordinate Certificates in a series and the circumstances under which such
subordination will be 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 the related
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.
58
<PAGE>
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 deemed by
the Depositor to be 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
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.
The related Prospectus Supplement will describe any limitations on the draws
that may be made under any such instrument. 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
59
<PAGE>
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 "mortgages". A mortgage 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 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 and, generally, the order of recordation of the mortgage in
the appropriate public recording office. However, the lien of a recorded
mortgage 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 contrast,
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, irrevocably until the debt is
paid, in trust and generally with a power of sale, to the trustee to secure
repayment of the indebtedness evidenced by the related note. A deed to secure
debt typically has two parties. The grantor (the borrower) conveys title to
the real property to the grantee (the 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 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 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
(including, without limitation, the Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act
of 1940) and, in some deed of trust transactions, the directions of the
beneficiary.
60
<PAGE>
LEASES AND RENTS
Mortgages that encumber income-producing property often contain 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 may be required to
commence a foreclosure action or otherwise take possession of the property in
order to collect the room rates following a default. See "--Bankruptcy Laws".
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.
FORECLOSURE
General. Foreclosure is a legal procedure that allows the lender to
recover its mortgage debt by enforcing its rights and available legal
remedies under the mortgage. If the borrower defaults in payment or
performance of its obligations under the note or mortgage, 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 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. Moreover, as discussed below,
even a non-collusive, regularly conducted foreclosure sale may be challenged
as a fraudulent conveyance, regardless of the parties' intent, if a court
determines that the sale was for less than fair consideration and such sale
occurred while the borrower was insolvent and within a specified period prior
to the borrower's filing for bankruptcy protection.
Judicial Foreclosure. A judicial foreclosure proceeding is conducted in a
court having jurisdiction over the mortgaged property. Generally, the action
is initiated by the service of legal pleadings upon all parties having a
subordinate interest of record in the real property and all parties in
possession of the property, under leases or otherwise, whose interests are
subordinate to the mortgage. Delays in completion of the foreclosure may
occasionally result from difficulties in locating defendants. When the
lender's right to foreclose is contested, the legal proceedings can be
time-consuming. Upon successful completion of a judicial foreclosure
proceeding, the court generally issues a judgment of foreclosure and appoints
a referee or other officer to conduct a public sale of the mortgaged
property, the proceeds of which are used to satisfy the judgment. Such sales
are made in accordance with procedures that vary from state to state.
61
<PAGE>
Equitable Limitations on Enforceability of Certain Provisions. 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 lenders 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
providing for a power of sale does not involve sufficient state action to
trigger constitutional protections.
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 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 mortgage 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.
Public Sale. A third party may be unwilling to purchase a mortgaged
property at a public sale because of the difficulty in determining the value
of such property at the time of sale, due to, among other things, redemption
rights which may exist and the possibility of physical deterioration of the
property during the foreclosure proceedings. Potential buyers may 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 and other decisions that
have followed its reasoning. The court in Durrett held that even a
non-collusive, regularly conducted foreclosure sale was a fraudulent transfer
under the federal Bankruptcy Code, as amended from time to time (11 U.S.C.)
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 in respect of the Bankruptcy Code was
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 which has 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 lesser of fair market value and the underlying debt
and accrued and unpaid interest plus the expenses of foreclosure. Generally,
state law controls the amount of foreclosure costs and expenses which may be
recovered by a lender. Thereafter, subject to the mortgagor's
62
<PAGE>
right in some states to remain in possession during a redemption period, if
applicable, the lender will become the owner of the property and have both
the benefits and burdens of ownership of the mortgaged property. For example,
the lender will have the obligation to pay debt service on any senior
mortgages, to pay taxes, obtain casualty insurance and to make such repairs
at its own expense as are necessary to render the property suitable for sale.
Frequently, the lender employs a third party management company to manage and
operate the property. The costs of operating and maintaining a commercial or
multifamily residential property may be significant and may be greater than
the income derived from that property. The costs of management and operation
of those mortgaged properties which are hotels, motels or restaurants or
nursing or convalescent homes or hospitals may be particularly significant
because of the expertise, knowledge and, with respect to nursing or
convalescent homes or hospitals, regulatory compliance, required to run such
operations and the effect which foreclosure and a change in ownership may
have on the public's and the industry's (including franchisors') perception
of the quality of such operations. The lender will commonly obtain the
services of a real estate broker and pay the broker's commission in
connection with the sale of the property. Depending upon market conditions,
the ultimate proceeds of the sale of the property may not equal the amount of
the mortgage against the property. Moreover, a lender commonly incurs
substantial legal fees and court costs in acquiring a mortgaged property
through contested foreclosure and/or bankruptcy proceedings. Furthermore, a
few states require that any environmental contamination at certain types of
properties be cleaned up before a property may be resold. In addition, a
lender may be responsible under federal or state law for the cost of cleaning
up a mortgaged property that is environmentally contaminated. See
"--Environmental Risks". Generally state law controls the amount of
foreclosure expenses and costs, including attorneys' fees, that may be
recovered by a lender.
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 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. Some or all of the Mortgage Loans 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
63
<PAGE>
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 Risks. Mortgage Loans may be secured by a mortgage 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 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 upon a lease default,
the leasehold mortgagee would lose its security. This risk may be lessened if
the ground lease requires the lessor to give the leasehold mortgagee notices
of lessee defaults and an opportunity to cure them, permits the leasehold
estate to be assigned to and by the leasehold mortgagee or the purchaser at a
foreclosure sale, and contains certain other protective provisions typically
included in a "mortgageable" ground lease.
Cooperative Shares. Mortgage Loans may be secured by a security interest
on the borrower's ownership interest in shares, and the proprietary leases
appurtenant thereto, allocable to cooperative dwelling units that may be
vacant or occupied by non-owner tenants. Such loans are subject to certain
risks not associated with mortgage loans secured by a lien on the fee estate
of a borrower in real property. Such a loan typically is subordinate to the
mortgage, if any, on the Cooperative's building which, if foreclosed, could
extinguish the equity in the building and the proprietary leases of the
dwelling units derived from ownership of the shares of the Cooperative.
Further, transfer of shares in a Cooperative are subject to various
regulations as well as to restrictions under the governing documents of the
Cooperative, and the shares may be cancelled in the event that associated
maintenance charges due under the related proprietary leases are not paid.
Typically, a recognition agreement between the lender and the Cooperative
provides, among other things, the lender with an opportunity to cure a
default under a proprietary lease.
Under the laws applicable in many states, "foreclosure" on Cooperative
shares is accomplished by a sale in accordance with the provisions of Article
9 of the UCC and the security agreement relating to the shares. Article 9 of
the UCC requires that a sale be conducted in a "commercially reasonable"
manner, which may be dependent upon, among other things, the notice given the
debtor and the method, manner, time, place and terms of the sale. Article 9
of the UCC provides that the proceeds of the sale will be applied first to
pay the costs and expenses of the sale and then to satisfy the indebtedness
secured by the lender's security interest. A recognition agreement, however,
generally provides that the lender's right to reimbursement is subject to the
right of the Cooperative to receive sums due under the proprietary leases.
BANKRUPTCY LAWS
Operation of the Bankruptcy Code and related state laws may interfere with
or affect the ability of a secured 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.
For example, the lender's lien may be transferred to other collateral and/or
the
64
<PAGE>
outstanding amount of the secured 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. The priority of a mortgage loan may also be subordinated to
bankruptcy court-approved financing. 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.
The bankruptcy court can also reinstate accelerated indebtedness and also,
in effect, invalidate due-on-sale clauses through confirmed Chapter 11 plans
of reorganization. Under Section 363(b) and (f) of the Bankruptcy Code, a
trustee for a lessor, or a lessor as debtor-in-possession, may, despite the
provisions of the related Mortgage Loan to the contrary, sell the Mortgaged
Property free and clear of all liens, which liens would then attach to the
proceeds of such sale.
The Bankruptcy Code provides 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" and such term is defined and interpreted under the
Bankruptcy Code. It should be noted, however, that the court may find that
the lender has no security interest in either pre-petition or post-petition
revenues if the court finds that the loan documents do not contain language
covering accounts, room rents, or other forms of personalty necessary for a
security interest to attach to hotel revenues.
Lessee bankruptcies at the Mortgaged Properties could have an adverse
impact on the Mortgagors' ability to meet their obligations. For example,
Section 365(e) of the Bankruptcy Code provides generally that rights and
obligations under an unexpired lease may not be terminated or modified at any
time after the commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code solely
because of a provision in the lease conditioned upon the commencement of a
case under the Bankruptcy Code or certain other similar events. In addition,
Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code operates as an automatic stay of, among
other things, any act to obtain possession of property of or from a debtor's
estate, which may delay the Trustee's exercise of such remedies in the event
that a lessee becomes the subject of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code.
Section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code generally provides that a trustee or
a debtor-in-possession in a case under the Bankruptcy Code has the power to
assume or to reject an executory contract or an unexpired lease of the
debtor, in each case subject to the approval of the bankruptcy court
administering such case. If the trustee or debtor-in-possession rejects an
executory contract or an unexpired lease, such rejection generally
constitutes a breach of the executory contract or unexpired lease immediately
before the date of the filing of the petition. As a consequence, the other
party or parties to such executory contract or unexpired lease, such as the
lessor or Mortgagor, as lessor under a lease, would have only an unsecured
claim against the debtor for damages resulting from such breach, which could
adversely affect the security for the related Mortgage Loan. Moreover, under
Section 502(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code, the claim of a lessor for such
damages from the termination of a lease of real property will be limited to
the sum of (i) the rent reserved by such lease, without acceleration, for the
greater of one year or 15 percent, not to exceed three years, of the
remaining term of such lease, following the earlier of the date of the filing
of the petition and the date on which such lender repossessed, or the lessee
surrendered, the leased property, and (ii) any unpaid rent due under such
lease, without acceleration, on the earlier of such dates.
65
<PAGE>
Under Section 365(f) of the Bankruptcy Code, if a trustee or
debtor-in-possession assumes an executory contract or an unexpired lease of
the debtor, the trustee or debtor-in-possession generally may assign such
executory contract or unexpired lease, notwithstanding any provision therein
or in applicable law that prohibits, restricts or conditions such assignment,
provided that the trustee or debtor-in- possession provides "adequate
assurance of future performance" by the assignee. The Bankruptcy Code
specifically provides, however, that adequate assurance of future performance
for purposes of a lease of real property in a shopping center includes
adequate assurance of the source of rent and other consideration due under
such lease, and in the case of an assignment, that the financial condition
and operating performance of the proposed assignee and its guarantors, if
any, shall be similar to the financial condition and operating performance of
the debtor and its guarantors, if any, as of the time the debtor became the
lessee under the lease, that any percentage rent due under such lease will
not decline substantially, that the assumption and assignment of the lease is
subject to all the provisions thereof, including (but not limited to)
provisions such as a radius location, use or exclusivity provision, and will
not breach any such provision contained in any other lease, financing
agreement, or master agreement relating to such shopping center, and that the
assumption or assignment of such lease will not disrupt the tenant mix or
balance in such shopping center. Thus, an undetermined third party may assume
the obligations of the lessee under a lease in the event of commencement of a
proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the lessee.
Under Section 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code, if a trustee for a lessor as
a debtor-in-possession, rejects an unexpired lease of real property, the
lessee may treat such lease as terminated by such rejection or, in the
alternative, may remain in possession of the leasehold for the balance of
such term and for any renewal or extension of such term that is enforceable
by the lessee under applicable nonbankruptcy law. The Bankruptcy Code
provides that if a lessee elects to remain in possession after such a
rejection of a lease, the lessee may offset against rents reserved under the
lease for the balance of the term after the date of rejection of the lease,
and any such renewal or extension thereof, any damages occurring after such
date caused by the nonperformance of any obligation of the lessor under the
lease after such date.
In a bankruptcy or similar proceeding, action may be taken seeking the
recovery as a preferential transfer of any payments made by the mortgagor
under the related Mortgage Loan to the Trust Fund. Payments on long-term debt
may be protected from recovery as preferences if they are payments in the
ordinary course of business made on debts incurred in the ordinary course of
business. Whether any particular payment would be protected depends upon the
facts specific to a particular transaction.
A trustee in bankruptcy, in some cases, may be entitled to collect its
costs and expenses in preserving or selling the mortgaged property ahead of
payment to the lender. In certain circumstances, a debtor in bankruptcy may
have the power to grant liens senior to the lien of a mortgage, and analogous
state statutes and general principles of equity may also provide a mortgagor
with means to halt a foreclosure proceeding or sale and to force a
restructuring of a mortgage loan on terms a lender would not otherwise
accept. Moreover, the laws of certain states also give priority to certain
tax liens over the lien of a mortgage or deed of trust. Under the Bankruptcy
Code, if the court finds that actions of the mortgagee have been
unreasonable, the lien of the related mortgage may be subordinated to the
claims of unsecured creditors.
ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS
A lender may be subject to unforeseen environmental risks with respect to
loans secured by real or personal property, such as the Mortgage Loans. Under
the laws of many states, contamination on a property may give rise to a lien
on the property for cleanup costs. In several states, such a lien has
priority over all existing liens (a "superlien"), including those of existing
mortgages; in these states, the lien of the mortgage for any Mortgage Loan
may lose its priority to such a superlien.
Under the federal Comprehensive Response Compensation and Liability Act
("CERCLA"), a lender may be liable either to the government or to private
parties for cleanup costs on a property securing a loan, even if the lender
does not cause or contribute to the contamination. CERCLA imposes strict, as
well as joint and several, liability on several classes of potentially
responsible parties ("PRPs"), including current owners and operators of the
property who did not cause or contribute to the contamination. Many states
have laws similar to CERCLA.
66
<PAGE>
Lenders may be held liable under CERCLA as owners or operators unless they
qualify for the secured creditor exemption to CERCLA. On April 29, 1992, the
United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") issued a final rule
intended to protect lenders from liability under CERCLA. This rule was in
response to a 1990 decision of the United States Court of Appeals for the
Eleventh Circuit, United States v. Fleet Factors Corp., which narrowly
construed the security interest exemption under CERCLA to hold lenders liable
if they had the capacity to influence their borrower's management of
hazardous waste. On February 4, 1994, the United States Court of Appeals for
the District of Columbia Circuit in Kelley v. Environmental Protection Agency
invalidated this EPA rule. As a result of the Kelley case, the state of the
law with respect to the secured creditor exemption and the scope of
permissible activities in which a lender may engage to protect its security
interest remain uncertain. EPA and the Department of Justice ("DOJ"),
however, issued a joint policy memorandum in which these agencies announced
that they would continue to follow the "Lender Liability Rule" vacated by the
Kelley case. These agencies indicated that prior to its invalidation, several
courts adhered to the terms of the "Lender Liability Rule" or interpreted
CERCLA in a manner consistent with the "Lender Liability Rule." EPA and DOJ
indicated in the September 22, 1995 memorandum that they intend to follow
this line of cases. This EPA/DOJ policy, however, would not necessarily
affect the potential for lender liability in actions by parties other than
EPA or under laws or legal theories other than CERCLA. If a lender is or
becomes liable, it can bring an action for contribution against the owner or
operator who created the environmental hazard, but that person or entity may
be bankrupt or otherwise judgment proof.
Environment clean-up costs may be substantial. It is possible that such
costs could become a liability of the Trust and occasion a loss to
Certificateholders if such remedial costs were incurred.
In a few states, transfers of some types of properties are conditioned
upon cleanup of contamination prior to transfer. It is possible that a
property securing a Mortgage Loan could be subject to such transfer
restrictions. In such a case, if the lender becomes the owner upon
foreclosure, it may be required to clean up the contamination before selling
the property.
The cost of remediating hazardous substance contamination at a property
can be substantial. If a lender is or becomes liable, it can bring an action
for contribution against the owner or operator that created the environmental
hazard, but that person or entity may be without substantial assets.
Accordingly, it is possible that such costs could become a liability of a
Trust Fund and occasion a loss to Certificateholders of the related series.
To reduce the likelihood of such a loss, and unless otherwise provided in
the related Prospectus Supplement, the related Pooling Agreement will provide
that the Master Servicer may, on behalf of the Trust Fund, acquire title to a
Mortgaged Property or take over its operation unless the Master Servicer,
based 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 "Description of the Pooling Agreements--Realization Upon
Defaulted Mortgage Loans".
Even when a lender is not directly liable for cleanup costs on property
securing loans, if a property securing a loan is contaminated, the value of
the security is likely to be affected. In addition, a lender bears the risk
that unanticipated cleanup costs may jeopardize the borrower's repayment.
Neither of these two issues is likely to pose risks exceeding the amount of
unpaid principal and interest of a particular loan secured by a contaminated
property, particularly if the lender declines to foreclose on a mortgage
secured by the property.
If a lender forecloses on a mortgage secured by a property the operations
of which are subject to environmental laws and regulations, the lender will
be required to operate the property in accordance with those laws and
regulations. Compliance may entail some expense.
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 decrease the amount that prospective buyers
are willing to pay for the affected property and thereby lessen the ability
of the lender to recover its investment in a loan upon foreclosure.
67
<PAGE>
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.
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 which 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
68
<PAGE>
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.

CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
The following is a general discussion of the anticipated material federal
income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of
Certificates. The discussion below does not purport to address all federal
income tax consequences that may be applicable to particular categories of
investors, some of which may be subject to special rules. The authorities on
which this discussion is based are subject to change or differing
interpretations, and any such change or interpretation could apply
retroactively. This discussion reflects the applicable provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), as well as
regulations (the "REMIC Regulations") promulgated by the U.S. Department of
Treasury (the "Treasury") on December 23, 1992. Investors should consult
their own tax advisors in determining the federal, state, local and other tax
consequences to them of the purchase, ownership and disposition of
Certificates.
For purposes of this discussion, (i) references to the Mortgage Loans
include references to the mortgage loans underlying MBS included in the
Mortgage Assets and (ii) where the applicable Prospectus Supplement provides
for a fixed retained yield with respect to the Mortgage Loans underlying a
series of Certificates, references to the Mortgage Loans will be deemed to
refer to that portion of the Mortgage Loans held by the Trust Fund which does
not include the Retained Interest. References to a "holder" or
"Certificateholder" in this discussion generally mean the beneficial owner of
a Certificate.
FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES FOR REMIC CERTIFICATES
General
With respect to a particular series of Certificates, an election may be
made to treat the Trust Fund or one or more segregated pools of assets
therein as one or more REMICs within the meaning of Code Section 860D. A
Trust Fund or a portion thereof as to which a REMIC election will be made
will be referred to as a "REMIC Pool". For purposes of this discussion,
Certificates of a series as to which one or more REMIC elections are made are
referred to as "REMIC Certificates" and will consist of one or more Classes
of "Regular Certificates" and one Class of "Residual Certificates" in the
case of each REMIC Pool. Qualification as a REMIC requires ongoing compliance
with certain conditions. With respect to each series of REMIC Certificates,
Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft, counsel to the Depositor, has advised the
Depositor that in the firm's opinion, assuming (i) the making of such an
election, (ii) compliance with the Pooling Agreement and (iii) compliance
with any changes in the law, including any amendments to the Code or
applicable Treasury regulations thereunder, each REMIC Pool will qualify as a
REMIC. In such case, the Regular Certificates will be considered to be
"regular interests" in the REMIC Pool and generally will be treated for
federal income tax purposes as if they were newly originated debt
instruments, and the Residual Certificates will be considered to be "residual
interests" in the REMIC Pool. The Prospectus Supplement for each series of
Certificates will indicate whether one or more REMIC elections with respect
to the related Trust Fund will be made, in which event references to "REMIC"
or "REMIC Pool" herein shall be deemed to refer to each such REMIC Pool. If
so specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the portion of a Trust
Fund as to which a REMIC election is not made may be treated as a grantor
trust for federal income tax purposes. See "--Federal Income Tax Consequences
for Certificates as to Which No REMIC Election Is Made".
Status of REMIC Certificates
REMIC Certificates held by a mutual savings bank or a domestic building
and loan association will constitute "qualifying real property loans" within
the meaning of Code Section 593(d)(1) in the same proportion that the assets
of the REMIC Pool would be so treated. REMIC Certificates held by a domestic
building and loan association will constitute "a regular or residual interest
in a REMIC" within the meaning of Code Section 7701(a)(19)(C)(xi), but only
in the same proportion that the assets of the REMIC Pool would be treated as
"loans . . . secured by an interest in real property which is . . .
residential real property" (such as single family or multifamily properties,
but not commercial properties) within the meaning of Code Section
7701(a)(19)(C)(v) or as other assets described in Code Section
7701(a)(19)(C), and otherwise will not qualify for such treatment. REMIC
Certificates held by a real estate investment trust will constitute "real
estate assets" within the meaning of Code Section 856(c)(5)(A), and interest
on
70
<PAGE>
the Regular Certificates and income with respect to Residual Certificates
will be considered "interest on obligations secured by mortgages on real
property or on interests in real property" within the meaning of Code Section
856(c)(3)(B) in the same proportion that, for both purposes, the assets of
the REMIC Pool would be so treated. If at all times 95% or more of the assets
of the REMIC Pool qualify for each of the foregoing respective treatments,
the REMIC Certificates will qualify for the corresponding status in their
entirety. For purposes of Code Sections 593(d)(1) and 856(c)(5)(A), payments
of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans that are reinvested pending
distribution to holders of REMIC Certificates qualify for such treatment.
Where two REMIC Pools are a part of a tiered structure they will be treated
as one REMIC for purposes of the tests described above respecting asset
ownership of more or less than 95%. In addition, if the assets of the REMIC
include Buy-Down Mortgage Loans, it is possible that the percentage of such
assets constituting "qualifying real property loans" or "loans . . . secured
by an interest in real property" for purposes of Code Sections 593(d)(1) and
7701(a)(19)(C)(v), respectively, may be required to be reduced by the amount
of the related Buy-Down Funds. REMIC Certificates held by a regulated
investment company will not constitute "Government Securities" within the
meaning of Code Section 851(b)(4)(A)(i). REMIC Certificates held by certain
financial institutions will constitute an "evidence of indebtedness" within
the meaning of Code Section 582(c)(1).
Qualification as a REMIC
In order for the REMIC Pool to qualify as a REMIC, there must be ongoing
compliance on the part of the REMIC Pool with the requirements set forth in
the Code. The REMIC Pool must fulfill an asset test, which requires that no
more than a de minimis portion of the assets of the REMIC Pool, as of the
close of the third calendar month beginning after the "Startup Day" (which
for purposes of this discussion is the date of issuance of the REMIC
Certificates) and at all times thereafter, may consist of assets other than
"qualified mortgages" and "permitted investments". The REMIC Regulations
provide a safe harbor pursuant to which the de minimis requirement is met if
at all times the aggregate adjusted basis of the nonqualified assets is less
than 1% of the aggregate adjusted basis of all the REMIC Pool's assets. An
entity that fails to meet the safe harbor may nevertheless demonstrate that
it holds no more than a de minimis amount of nonqualified assets. A REMIC
also must provide "reasonable arrangements" to prevent its residual interest
from being held by "disqualified organizations" and must furnish applicable
tax information to transferors or agents that violate this requirement. See
"Taxation of Residual Certificates--Tax-Related Restrictions on Transfer of
Residual Certificates--Disqualified Organizations".
A qualified mortgage is any obligation that is principally secured by an
interest in real property and that is either transferred to the REMIC Pool on
the Startup Day or is purchased by the REMIC Pool within a three-month period
thereafter pursuant to a fixed price contract in effect on the Startup Day.
Qualified mortgages include whole mortgage loans, such as the Mortgage Loans,
certificates of beneficial interest in a grantor trust that holds mortgage
loans, including certain of the MBS, regular interests in another REMIC, such
as MBS in a trust as to which a REMIC election has been made, loans secured
by timeshare interests and loans secured by shares held by a tenant
stockholder in a cooperative housing corporation, provided, in general, (i)
the fair market value of the real property security (including buildings and
structural components thereof) is at least 80% of the principal balance of
the related Mortgage Loan or mortgage loan underlying the Mortgage
Certificate either at origination or as of the Startup Day (an original
loan-to-value ratio of not more than 125% with respect to the real property
security) or (ii) substantially all the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan or the
underlying mortgage loan were used to acquire, improve or protect an interest
in real property that, at the origination date, was the only security for the
Mortgage Loan or underlying mortgage loan. If the Mortgage Loan has been
substantially modified other than in connection with a default or reasonably
foreseeable default, it must meet the loan-to-value test in (i) of the
preceding sentence as of the date of the last such modification or at
closing. A qualified mortgage includes a qualified replacement mortgage,
which is any property that would have been treated as a qualified mortgage if
it were transferred to the REMIC Pool on the Startup Day and that is received
either (i) in exchange for any qualified mortgage within a three-month period
thereafter or (ii) in exchange for a "defective obligation" within a two-year
period thereafter. A "defective obligation" includes (i) a mortgage in
default or as to which default is reasonably foreseeable, (ii) a
71
<PAGE>
mortgage as to which a customary representation or warranty made at the time
of transfer to the REMIC Pool has been breached, (iii) a mortgage that was
fraudulently procured by the mortgagor, and (iv) a mortgage that was not in
fact principally secured by real property (but only if such mortgage is
disposed of within 90 days of discovery). A Mortgage Loan that is "defective"
as described in clause (iv) that is not sold or, if within two years of the
Startup Day, exchanged, within 90 days of discovery, ceases to be a qualified
mortgage after such 90-day period.
Permitted investments include cash flow investments, qualified reserve
assets, and foreclosure property. A cash flow investment is an investment,
earning a return in the nature of interest, of amounts received on or with
respect to qualified mortgages for a temporary period, not exceeding 13
months, until the next scheduled distribution to holders of interests in the
REMIC Pool. A qualified reserve asset is any intangible property held for
investment that is part of any reasonably required reserve maintained by the
REMIC Pool to provide for payments of expenses of the REMIC Pool or amounts
due on the regular or residual interests in the event of defaults (including
delinquencies) on the qualified mortgages, lower than expected reinvestment
returns, prepayment interest shortfalls and certain other contingencies. The
reserve fund will be disqualified if more than 30% of the gross income from
the assets in such fund for the year is derived from the sale or other
disposition of property held for less than three months, unless required to
prevent a default on the regular interests caused by a default on one or more
qualified mortgages. A reserve fund must be reduced "promptly and
appropriately" as payments on the Mortgage Loans are received. Foreclosure
property is real property acquired by the REMIC Pool in connection with the
default or imminent default of a qualified mortgage and generally held for
not more than two years, with extensions granted by the Internal Revenue
Service (the "Service").
In addition to the foregoing requirements, the various interests in a
REMIC Pool also must meet certain requirements. All of the interests in a
REMIC Pool must be either of the following: (i) one or more classes of
regular interests or (ii) a single class of residual interests on which
distributions, if any, are made pro rata. A regular interest is an interest
in a REMIC Pool that is issued on the Startup Day with fixed terms, is
designated as a regular interest, and unconditionally entitles the holder to
receive a specified principal amount (or other similar amount), and provides
that interest payments (or other similar amounts), if any, at or before
maturity either are payable based on a fixed rate or a qualified variable
rate, or consist of a specified, nonvarying portion of the interest payments
on qualified mortgages. Such a specified portion may consist of a fixed
number of basis points, a fixed percentage of the total interest, or a fixed
or qualified variable or inverse variable rate on some or all of the
qualified mortgages minus a different fixed or qualified variable rate. The
specified principal amount of a regular interest that provides for interest
payments consisting of a specified, nonvarying portion of interest payments
on qualified mortgages may be zero. A residual interest is an interest in a
REMIC Pool other than a regular interest that is issued on the Startup Day
and that is designated as a residual interest. An interest in a REMIC Pool
may be treated as a regular interest even if payments of principal with
respect to such interest are subordinated to payments on other regular
interests or the residual interest in the REMIC Pool, and are dependent on
the absence of defaults or delinquencies on qualified mortgages or permitted
investments, lower than reasonably expected returns on permitted investments,
unanticipated expenses incurred by the REMIC Pool or prepayment interest
shortfalls. Accordingly, the Regular Certificates of a series will constitute
one or more classes of regular interests, and the Residual Certificates with
respect to that series will constitute a single class of residual interests
on which distributions are made pro rata.
If an entity, such as the REMIC Pool, fails to comply with one or more of
the ongoing requirements of the Code for REMIC status during any taxable
year, the Code provides that the entity will not be treated as a REMIC for
such year and thereafter. In this event, an entity with multiple classes of
ownership interests may be treated as a separate association taxable as a
corporation under Treasury regulations, and the Regular Certificates may be
treated as equity interests therein. The Code, however, authorizes the
Treasury Department to issue regulations that address situations where
failure to meet one or more of the requirements for REMIC status occurs
inadvertently and in good faith, and disqualification of the REMIC Pool would
occur absent regulatory relief. Investors should be aware, however, that the
Conference Committee Report to the Tax Reform Act of 1986 (the "1986 Act")
indicates that the relief may be accompanied by sanctions, such as the
imposition of a corporate tax on all or a portion of the REMIC Pool's income
for the period of time in which the requirements for REMIC status are not
satisfied.

TAXATION OF REGULAR CERTIFICATES
General
In general, interest, original issue discount and market discount on a
Regular Certificate will be treated as ordinary income to a holder of the
Regular Certificate (the "Regular Certificateholder") as they accrue, and
principal payments on a Regular Certificate will be treated as a return of
capital to the extent of the Regular Certificateholder's basis in the Regular
Certificate allocable thereto. Regular Certificateholders must use the
accrual method of accounting with regard to Regular Certificates, regardless
of the method of accounting otherwise used by such Regular
Certificateholders.
Original Issue Discount
Accrual Certificates and principal-only Certificates will be, and other
Classes of Regular Certificates may be, issued with "original issue discount"
within the meaning of Code Section 1273(a). Holders of any Class of Regular
Certificates having original issue discount generally must include original
issue discount in ordinary income for federal income tax purposes as it
accrues, in accordance with the constant yield method that takes into account
the compounding of interest, in advance of receipt of the cash attributable
to such income. The following discussion is based in part on temporary and
final Treasury regulations issued on February 2, 1994 (the "OID Regulations")
and proposed Treasury regulations issued on December 16, 1994 (the "Proposed
OID Regulations") under Code Sections 1271 through 1273 and 1275 and in part
on the provisions of the 1986 Act. Regular Certificateholders should be
aware, however, that the OID Regulations and the Proposed OID Regulations do
not adequately address certain issues relevant to prepayable securities, such
as the Regular Certificates. To the extent such issues are not addressed in
such regulations, the Depositor intends to apply the methodology described in
the Conference Committee Report to the 1986 Act. No assurance can be provided
that the Service will not take a different position as to those matters not
currently addressed by the OID Regulations and the Proposed OID Regulations.
Moreover, the OID Regulations include an anti-abuse rule allowing the Service
to apply or depart from the OID Regulations where necessary or appropriate to
ensure a reasonable tax result in light of the applicable statutory
provisions. A tax result will not be considered unreasonable under the
anti-abuse rule in the absence of a substantial effect on the present value
of a taxpayer's tax liability. Investors are advised to consult their own tax
advisors as to the discussion herein and the appropriate method for reporting
interest and original issue discount with respect to the Regular
Certificates.
Each Regular Certificate (except to the extent described below with
respect to a Regular Certificate on which principal is distributed by random
lot ("Random Lot Certificates")) will be treated as a single installment
obligation for purposes of determining the original issue discount includible
in a Regular Certificateholder's income. The total amount of original issue
discount on a Regular Certificate is the excess of the "stated redemption
price at maturity" of the Regular Certificate over its "issue price". The
issue price of a Class of Regular Certificates offered pursuant to this
Prospectus generally is the first price at which a substantial amount of
Regular Certificates of that Class is sold to the public (excluding bond
houses, brokers and underwriters). Although unclear under the OID
Regulations, the Depositor intends to treat the issue price of a Class as to
which there is no substantial sale as of the issue date or that is retained
by the Depositor as the fair market value of that Class as of the issue date.
The issue price of a Regular Certificate also includes the amount paid by an
initial Regular Certificateholder for accrued interest that relates to a
period prior to the issue date of the Regular Certificate, unless the Regular
Certificateholder elects on its federal income tax return to exclude such
amount from the issue price and to recover it on the first Distribution Date.
The stated redemption price at maturity of a Regular Certificate always
includes the original principal amount of the Regular Certificate, but
generally will not include distributions of stated interest if such interest
distributions constitute "qualified stated interest". Under the OID
Regulations, qualified stated interest generally means interest payable at a
single fixed rate or a qualified variable rate (as described below) provided
that such interest payments are unconditionally payable at intervals of one
year or less during the entire term of the Regular Certificate. Distributions
of interest on an Accrual Certificate, or on other Regular Certificates with
respect to which deferred interest will accrue, will not constitute qualified
stated interest, in which case the stated
73
<PAGE>
redemption price at maturity of such Regular Certificates includes all
distributions of interest as well as principal thereon. Likewise, the
Depositor intends to treat an "interest only" class, or a class on which
interest is substantially disproportionate to its principal amount (a
so-called "super-premium" class) as having no qualified stated interest.
Where the interval between the issue date and the first Distribution Date on
a Regular Certificate is shorter than the interval between subsequent
Distribution Dates, the interest attributable to the additional days will be
included in the stated redemption price at maturity.
Under a de minimis rule, original issue discount on a Regular Certificate
will be considered to be zero if such original issue discount is less than
0.25% of the stated redemption price at maturity of the Regular Certificate
multiplied by the weighted average maturity of the Regular Certificate. For
this purpose, the weighted average maturity of the Regular Certificate is
computed as the sum of the amounts determined by multiplying the number of
full years (i.e., rounding down partial years) from the issue date until each
distribution is scheduled to be made by a fraction, the numerator of which is
the amount of each distribution included in the stated redemption price at
maturity of the Regular Certificate and the denominator of which is the
stated redemption price at maturity of the Regular Certificate. The
Conference Committee Report to the 1986 Act provides that the schedule of
such distributions should be determined in accordance with the assumed rate
of prepayment of the Mortgage Loans (the "Prepayment Assumption") and the
anticipated reinvestment rate, if any, relating to the Regular Certificates.
The Prepayment Assumption with respect to a Series of Regular Certificates
will be set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement. Holders generally
must report de minimis OID pro rata as principal payments are received, and
such income will be capital gain if the Regular Certificate is held as a
capital asset. However, under the OID Regulations, Regular Certificateholders
may elect to accrue all de minimis original issue discount as well as market
discount and market premium under the constant yield method. See "Election to
Treat All Interest Under the Constant Yield Method".
A Regular Certificateholder generally must include in gross income for any
taxable year the sum of the "daily portions," as defined below, of the
original issue discount on the Regular Certificate accrued during an accrual
period for each day on which it holds the Regular Certificate, including the
date of purchase but excluding the date of disposition. The Depositor will
treat the monthly period ending on the day before each Distribution Date as
the accrual period. With respect to each Regular Certificate, a calculation
will be made of the original issue discount that accrues during each
successive full accrual period (or shorter period from the date of original
issue) that ends on the day before the related Distribution Date on the
Regular Certificate. The Conference Committee Report to the 1986 Act states
that the rate of accrual of original issue discount is intended to be based
on the Prepayment Assumption. Other than as discussed below with respect to a
Random Lot Certificate, the original issue discount accruing in a full
accrual period would be the excess, if any, of (i) the sum of (a) the present
value of all of the remaining distributions to be made on the Regular
Certificate as of the end of that accrual period that are included in the
Regular Certificate's stated redemption price at maturity and (b) the
distributions made on the Regular Certificate during the accrual period that
are included in the Regular Certificate's stated redemption price at
maturity, over (ii) the adjusted issue price of the Regular Certificate at
the beginning of the accrual period. The present value of the remaining
distributions referred to in the preceding sentence is calculated based on
(i) the yield to maturity of the Regular Certificate at the issue date, (ii)
events (including actual prepayments) that have occurred prior to the end of
the accrual period and (iii) the Prepayment Assumption. For these purposes,
the adjusted issue price of a Regular Certificate at the beginning of any
accrual period equals the issue price of the Regular Certificate, increased
by the aggregate amount of original issue discount with respect to the
Regular Certificate that accrued in all prior accrual periods and reduced by
the amount of distributions included in the Regular Certificate's stated
redemption price at maturity that were made on the Regular Certificate in
such prior periods. The original issue discount accruing during any accrual
period (as determined in this paragraph) will then be divided by the number
of days in the period to determine the daily portion of original issue
discount for each day in the period. With respect to an initial accrual
period shorter than a full accrual period, the daily portions of original
issue discount must be determined according to an appropriate allocation
under any reasonable method.
Under the method described above, the daily portions of original issue
discount required to be included in income by a Regular Certificateholder
generally will increase to take into account
74
<PAGE>
prepayments on the Regular Certificates as a result of prepayments on the
Mortgage Loans that exceed the Prepayment Assumption, and generally will
decrease (but not below zero for any period) if the prepayments are slower
than the Prepayment Assumption. An increase in prepayments on the Mortgage
Loans with respect to a Series of Regular Certificates can result in both a
change in the priority of principal payments with respect to certain Classes
of Regular Certificates and either an increase or decrease in the daily
portions of original issue discount with respect to such Regular
Certificates.
In the case of a Random Lot Certificate, the Depositor intends to
determine the yield to maturity of such Certificate based upon the
anticipated payment characteristics of the Class as a whole under the
Prepayment Assumption. In general, the original issue discount accruing on
each Random Lot Certificate in a full accrual period would be its allocable
share of the original issue discount with respect to the entire Class, as
determined in accordance with the preceding paragraph. However, in the case
of a distribution in retirement of the entire unpaid principal balance of any
Random Lot Certificate (or portion of such unpaid principal balance), (a) the
remaining unaccrued original issue discount allocable to such Certificate (or
to such portion) will accrue at the time of such distribution, and (b) the
accrual of original issue discount allocable to each remaining Certificate of
such Class (or the remaining unpaid principal balance of a partially redeemed
Random Lot Certificate after a distribution of principal has been received)
will be adjusted by reducing the present value of the remaining payments on
such Class and the adjusted issue price of such Class to the extent
attributable to the portion of the unpaid principal balance thereof that was
distributed. The Depositor believes that the foregoing treatment is
consistent with the "pro rata prepayment" rules of the OID Regulations, but
with the rate of accrual of original issue discount determined based on the
Prepayment Assumption for the Class as a whole. Investors are advised to
consult their tax advisors as to this treatment.
Acquisition Premium
A purchaser of a Regular Certificate at a price greater than its adjusted
issue price but less than its stated redemption price at maturity will be
required to include in gross income the daily portions of the original issue
discount on the Regular Certificate reduced pro rata by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the excess of its purchase price over such adjusted
issue price and the denominator of which is the excess of the remaining
stated redemption price at maturity over the adjusted issue price.
Alternatively, such a subsequent purchaser may elect to treat all such
acquisition premium under the constant yield method, as described below under
the heading "Election to Treat All Interest Under the Constant Yield Method".
Variable Rate Regular Certificates
Regular Certificates may provide for interest based on a variable rate.
Under the OID Regulations, interest is treated as payable at a variable rate
if, generally, (i) the issue price does not exceed the original principal
balance by more than a specified amount and (ii) the interest compounds or is
payable at least annually at current values of (a) one or more "qualified
floating rates", (b) a single fixed rate and one or more qualified floating
rates, (c) a single "objective rate", or (d) a single fixed rate and a single
objective rate that is a "qualified inverse floating rate". A floating rate
is a qualified floating rate if variations in the rate can reasonably be
expected to measure contemporaneous variations in the cost of newly borrowed
funds, where such rate is subject to a multiple of not less than zero nor
more than 1.35. Such rate may also be increased or decreased by a fixed
spread or subject to a fixed cap or floor, or a cap or floor that is not
reasonably expected as of the issue date to affect the yield of the
instrument significantly. An objective rate includes a rate determined using
a single fixed formula and that is based on one or more qualified floating
rates or the yield or changes in the price of actively traded personal
property. The Proposed OID Regulations would expand the definition of
objective rate to include any rate (other than a qualified floating rate)
that is determined using a single fixed formula and that is based on
objective financial or economic information, provided that such information
is not (i) within the control of the issuer or a related party or (ii) unique
to the circumstances of the issuer or a related party. A qualified inverse
floating rate is a rate equal to a fixed rate minus a qualified floating rate
that inversely reflects contemporaneous variations in the cost of newly
borrowed funds; an inverse floating rate that is not a qualified floating
rate may nevertheless be an objective rate. A Class of Regular Certificates
may be issued under this Prospectus that does not have a variable rate under
the OID Regulations or, less likely, the
75
<PAGE>
Proposed OID Regulations, and it is possible that such a Class may be
considered to bear "contingent interest" within the meaning of the OID
Regulations and the Proposed OID Regulations. The Proposed OID Regulations,
as they relate to the treatment of contingent interest, are by their terms
not applicable to Regular Certificates. However, if future Treasury
regulations dealing with contingent interest with respect to Regular
Certificates apply the same principles as the Proposed OID Regulations, such
regulations may lead to different timing of income inclusion that would be
the case under the OID Regulations. Furthermore, application of such
principles could lead to the characterization of gain on the sale of
contingent interest Regular Certificates as ordinary income. Investors should
consult their tax advisors regarding the appropriate treatment of any Regular
Certificate that does not pay interest at a fixed rate or variable rate as
described in this paragraph. Moreover, under the REMIC Regulations, a Regular
Certificate (i) bearing a rate that qualifies as a variable rate under the
OID Regulations that is tied to current values of a variable rate (or the
highest, lowest or average of two or more variable rates), including a rate
based on the average cost of funds of one or more financial institutions, or
a positive or negative multiple of such a rate (plus or minus a specified
number of basis points), or that represents a weighted average of rates on
some or all of the Mortgage Loans that bear either a fixed rate or a variable
rate, including such a rate that is subject to one or more caps or floors, or
(ii) bearing one or more such variable rates for one or more periods or one
or more fixed rates for one or more periods, and a different variable rate or
fixed rate for other periods qualifies as a regular interest in a REMIC.
Accordingly, unless otherwise indicated in the applicable Prospectus
Supplement, the Depositor intends to treat Regular Certificates that qualify
as regular interests under this rule in the same manner as obligations
bearing a variable rate for original issue discount reporting purposes.
The amount of original issue discount with respect to a Regular
Certificate bearing a variable rate of interest will accrue in the manner
described above under "Original Issue Discount" with the yield to maturity
and future payments on such Regular Certificate generally to be determined by
assuming that interest will be payable for the life of the Regular
Certificate based on the initial rate (or, if different, the value of the
applicable variable rate as of the pricing date) for the relevant Class.
Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
Depositor intends to treat such variable interest as qualified stated
interest, other than variable interest on an interest-only or super-premium
Class, which will be treated as non-qualified stated interest includible in
the stated redemption price at maturity. Ordinary income reportable for any
period will be adjusted based on subsequent changes in the applicable
interest rate index.
Although unclear under the OID Regulations, the Depositor intends to treat
Regular Certificates bearing an interest rate that is a weighted average of
the net interest rates on Mortgage Loans or Mortgage Certificates having
fixed or adjustable rates, as having qualified stated interest. In the case
of adjustable rate Mortgage Loans, the applicable index used to compute
interest on the Mortgage Loans in effect on the pricing date (or possibly the
issue date) will be deemed to be in effect beginning with the period in which
the first weighted average adjustment date occurring after the issue date
occurs. Adjustments will be made in each accrual period either increasing or
decreasing the amount of ordinary income reportable to reflect the actual
Pass-Through Rate on the Regular Certificates.
Deferred Interest
Under the OID Regulations, all interest on a Regular Certificate as to
which there may be Deferred Interest is includible in the stated redemption
price at maturity thereof. Accordingly, any Deferred Interest that accrues
with respect to a Class of Regular Certificates may constitute income to the
holders of such Regular Certificates prior to the time distributions of cash
with respect to such Deferred Interest are made.
Market Discount
A purchaser of a Regular Certificate also may be subject to the market
discount rules of Code Section 1276 through 1278. Under these Code sections
and the principles applied by the OID Regulations in the context of original
issue discount, "market discount" is the amount by which the purchaser's
original basis in the Regular Certificate (i) is exceeded by the then-current
principal amount of the Regular Certificate or (ii) in the case of a Regular
Certificate having original issue discount, is exceeded by the adjusted issue
76
<PAGE>
price of such Regular Certificate at the time of purchase. Such purchaser
generally will be required to recognize ordinary income to the extent of
accrued market discount on such Regular Certificate as distributions
includible in the stated redemption price at maturity thereof are received,
in an amount not exceeding any such distribution. Such market discount would
accrue in a manner to be provided in Treasury regulations and should take
into account the Prepayment Assumption. The Conference Committee Report to
the 1986 Act provides that until such regulations are issued, such market
discount would accrue either (i) on the basis of a constant interest rate or
(ii) in the ratio of stated interest allocable to the relevant period to the
sum of the interest for such period plus the remaining interest as of the end
of such period, or in the case of a Regular Certificate issued with original
issue discount, in the ratio of original issue discount accrued for the
relevant period to the sum of the original issue discount accrued for such
period plus the remaining original issue discount as of the end of such
period. Such purchaser also generally will be required to treat a portion of
any gain on a sale or exchange of the Regular 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 as partial distributions in reduction of the
stated redemption price at maturity were received. Such purchaser will be
required to defer deduction of a portion of the excess of the interest paid
or accrued on indebtedness incurred to purchase or carry a Regular
Certificate over the interest distributable thereon. The deferred portion of
such interest expense in any taxable year generally will not exceed the
accrued market discount on the Regular Certificate for such year. Any such
deferred interest expense is, in general, allowed as a deduction not later
than the year in which the related market discount income is recognized or
the Regular Certificate is disposed of. As an alternative to the inclusion of
market discount in income on the foregoing basis, the Regular
Certificateholder may elect to include market discount in income currently as
it accrues on all market discount instruments acquired by such Regular
Certificateholder in that taxable year or thereafter, in which case the
interest deferral rule will not apply. See "Election to Treat All Interest
Under the Constant Yield Method" below regarding an alternative manner in
which such election may be deemed to be made.
Market discount with respect to a Regular Certificate will be considered
to be zero if such market discount is less than 0.25% of the remaining stated
redemption price at maturity of such Regular Certificate multiplied by the
weighted average maturity of the Regular Certificate (determined as described
above in the third paragraph under "Original Issue Discount") remaining after
the date of purchase. It appears that de minimis market discount would be
reported in a manner similar to de minimis original issue discount. See
"Original Issue Discount" above. Treasury regulations implementing the market
discount rules have not yet been issued, and therefore investors should
consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of these rules.
Investors should also consult Revenue Procedure 92-67 concerning the
elections to include market discount in income currently and to accrue market
discount on the basis of the constant yield method.
Premium
A Regular Certificate purchased at a cost greater than its remaining
stated redemption price at maturity generally is considered to be purchased
at a premium. If the Regular Certificateholder holds such Regular Certificate
as a "capital asset" within the meaning of Code Section 1221, the Regular
Certificateholder may elect under Code Section 171 to amortize such premium
under the constant yield method. The Conference Committee Report to the 1986
Act indicates a Congressional intent that the same rules that will apply to
the accrual of market discount on installment obligations will also apply to
amortizing bond premium under Code Section 171 on installment obligations
such as the Regular Certificates, although it is unclear whether the
alternatives to the constant yield method described above under "Market
Discount" are available. Amortizable bond premium will be treated as an
offset to interest income on a Regular Certificate rather than as a separate
deduction item. See "Election to Treat All Interest Under the Constant Yield
Method" below regarding an alternative manner in which the Code Section 171
election may be deemed to be made.
Election to Treat All Interest Under the Constant Yield Method
A holder of a debt instrument such as a Regular Certificate may elect to
treat all interest that accrues on the instrument using the constant yield
method, with none of the interest being treated as qualified
77
<PAGE>
stated interest. For purposes of applying the constant yield method to a debt
instrument subject to such an election, (i) "interest" includes stated
interest, original issue discount, de minimis original issue discount, market
discount and de minimis market discount, as adjusted by any amortizable bond
premium or acquisition premium and (ii) the debt instrument is treated as if
the instrument were issued on the holder's acquisition date in the amount of
the holder's adjusted basis immediately after acquisition. It is unclear
whether, for this purpose, the initial Prepayment Assumption would continue
to apply or if a new prepayment assumption as of the date of the holder's
acquisition would apply. A holder generally may make such an election on an
instrument by instrument basis or for a class or group of debt instruments.
However, if the holder makes such an election with respect to a debt
instrument with amortizable bond premium or with market discount, the holder
is deemed to have made elections to amortize bond premium or to report market
discount income currently as it accrues under the constant yield method,
respectively, for all debt instruments acquired by the holder in the same
taxable year or thereafter. The election is made on the holder's federal
income tax return for the year in which the debt instrument is acquired and
is irrevocable except with the approval of the Service. Investors should
consult their own tax advisors regarding the advisability of making such an
election.
Sale or Exchange of Regular Certificates
If a Regular Certificateholder sells or exchanges a Regular Certificate,
the Regular Certificateholder will recognize gain or loss equal to the
difference, if any, between the amount received and its adjusted basis in the
Regular Certificate. The adjusted basis of a Regular Certificate generally
will equal the cost of the Regular Certificate to the seller, increased by
any original issue discount or market discount previously included in the
seller's gross income with respect to the Regular Certificate and reduced by
amounts included in the stated redemption price at maturity of the Regular
Certificate that were previously received by the seller, by any amortized
premium and by previously recognized losses.
Except as described above with respect to market discount, and except as
provided in this paragraph, any gain or loss on the sale or exchange of a
Regular Certificate realized by an investor who holds the Regular Certificate
as a capital asset will be capital gain or loss and will be long-term or
short-term depending on whether the Regular Certificate has been held for the
long-term capital gain holding period (currently more than one year). Such
gain will be treated as ordinary income (i) if a Regular Certificate is held
as part of a "conversion transaction" as defined in Code Section 1258(c), up
to the amount of interest that would have accrued on the Regular
Certificateholder's net investment in the conversion transaction at 120% of
the appropriate applicable Federal rate under Code Section 1274(d) in effect
at the time the taxpayer entered into the transaction minus any amount
previously treated as ordinary income with respect to any prior distribution
of property that was held as a part of such transaction, (ii) in the case of
a non-corporate taxpayer, to the extent such taxpayer has made an election
under Code Section 163(d)(4) to have net capital gains taxed as investment
income at ordinary rates, or (iii) to the extent that such gain does not
exceed the excess, if any, of (a) the amount that would have been includible
in the gross income of the holder if its yield on such Regular Certificate
were 110% of the applicable Federal rate as of the date of purchase, over (b)
the amount of income actually includible in the gross income of such holder
with respect to the Regular Certificate. In addition, gain or loss recognized
from the sale of a Regular Certificate by certain banks or thrift
institutions will be treated as ordinary income or loss pursuant to Code
Section 582(c). Capital gains of certain non-corporate taxpayers are subject
to a lower maximum tax rate than ordinary income of such taxpayers. The
maximum tax rate for corporations is the same with respect to both ordinary
income and capital gains.
Treatment of Losses
Holders of Regular Certificates will be required to report income with
respect to Regular Certificates on the accrual method of accounting, without
giving effect to delays or reductions in distributions attributable to
defaults or delinquencies on the Mortgage Loans allocable to a particular
class of Regular Certificates, except to the extent it can be established
that such losses are uncollectible. Accordingly, the holder of a Regular
Certificate may have income, or may incur a diminution in cash flow as a
result of a default or delinquency, but may not be able to take a deduction
(subject to the discussion below) for the corresponding loss until a
subsequent taxable year. In this regard, investors are cautioned that while
they
78
<PAGE>
may generally cease to accrue interest income if it reasonably appears that
the interest will be uncollectible, the Internal Revenue Service may take the
position that original issue discount must continue to be accrued in spite of
its uncollectibility until the debt instrument is disposed of in a taxable
transaction or becomes worthless in accordance with the rules of Code Section
166. To the extent the rules of Code Section 166 regarding bad debts are
applicable, it appears that holders of Regular Certificates that are
corporations or that otherwise hold the Regular Certificates in connection
with a trade or business should in general be allowed to deduct as an
ordinary loss any such loss sustained during the taxable year on account of
any such Regular Certificates becoming wholly or partially worthless, and
that, in general, holders of Regular Certificates that are not corporations
and do not hold the Regular Certificates in connection with a trade or
business will be allowed to deduct as a short-term capital loss any loss with
respect to principal sustained during the taxable year on account of a
portion of any class or subclass of such Regular Certificates becoming wholly
worthless. Although the matter is not free from doubt, non-corporate holders
of Regular Certificates should be allowed a bad debt deduction at such time
as the principal balance of any class or subclass of such Regular
Certificates is reduced to reflect losses resulting from any liquidated
Mortgage Loans. The Service, however, could take the position that
non-corporate holders will be allowed a bad debt deduction to reflect such
losses only after all Mortgage Loans remaining in the Trust Fund have been
liquidated or such class of Regular Certificates has been otherwise retired.
The Service could also assert that losses on the Regular Certificates are
deductible based on some other method that may defer such deductions for all
holders, such as reducing future cash flow for purposes of computing original
issue discount. This may have the effect of creating "negative" original
issue discount which would be deductible only against future positive
original issue discount or otherwise upon termination of the Class. Holders
of Regular Certificates are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding
the appropriate timing, amount and character of any loss sustained with
respect to such Regular Certificates. While losses attributable to interest
previously reported as income should be deductible as ordinary losses by both
corporate and non-corporate holders, the Internal Revenue Service may take
the position that losses attributable to accrued original issue discount may
only be deducted as short-term capital losses by non-corporate holders not
engaged in a trade or business. Special loss rules are applicable to banks
and thrift institutions, including rules regarding reserves for bad debts.
Such taxpayers are advised to consult their tax advisors regarding the
treatment of losses on Regular Certificates.
TAXATION OF RESIDUAL CERTIFICATES
Taxation of REMIC Income
Generally, the "daily portions" of REMIC taxable income or net loss will
be includible as ordinary income or loss in determining the federal taxable
income of holders of Residual Certificates ("Residual Certificateholders"),
and will not be taxed separately to the REMIC Pool. The daily portions of
REMIC taxable income or net loss of a Residual Certificateholder are
determined by allocating the REMIC Pool's taxable income or net loss for each
calendar quarter ratably to each day in such quarter and by allocating such
daily portion among the Residual Certificateholders in proportion to their
respective holdings of Residual Certificates in the REMIC Pool on such day.
REMIC taxable income is generally determined in the same manner as the
taxable income of an individual using the accrual method of accounting,
except that (i) the limitations on deductibility of investment interest
expense and expenses for the production of income do not apply, (ii) all bad
loans will be deductible as business bad debts and (iii) the limitation on
the deductibility of interest and expenses related to tax-exempt income will
apply. The REMIC Pool's gross income includes interest, original issue
discount income and market discount income, if any, on the Mortgage Loans,
reduced by amortization of any premium on the Mortgage Loans, plus income
from amortization of issue premium, if any, on the Regular Certificates, plus
income on reinvestment of cash flows and reserve assets, plus any
cancellation of indebtedness income upon allocation of realized losses to the
Regular Certificates. The REMIC Pool's deductions include interest and
original issue discount expense on the Regular Certificates, servicing fees
on the Mortgage Loans, other administrative expenses of the REMIC Pool and
realized losses on the Mortgage Loans. The requirement that Residual
Certificateholders report their pro rata share of taxable income or net loss
of the REMIC Pool will continue until there are no Certificates of any class
of the related series outstanding.
79
<PAGE>
The taxable income recognized by a Residual Certificateholder in any
taxable year will be affected by, among other factors, the relationship
between the timing of recognition of interest and original issue discount or
market discount income or amortization of premium with respect to the
Mortgage Loans, on the one hand, and the timing of deductions for interest
(including original issue discount) on the Regular Certificates or income
from amortization of issue premium on the Regular Certificates, on the other
hand. In the event that an interest in the Mortgage Loans is acquired by the
REMIC Pool at a discount, and one or more of such Mortgage Loans is prepaid,
the Residual Certificateholder may recognize taxable income without being
entitled to receive a corresponding amount of cash because (i) the prepayment
may be used in whole or in part to make distributions in reduction of
principal on the Regular Certificates and (ii) the discount on the Mortgage
Loans which is includible in income may exceed the deduction allowed upon
such distributions on those Regular Certificates on account of any unaccrued
original issue discount relating to those Regular Certificates. When there is
more than one class of Regular Certificates that distribute principal
sequentially, this mismatching of income and deductions is particularly
likely to occur in the early years following issuance of the Regular
Certificates when distributions in reduction of principal are being made in
respect of earlier classes of Regular Certificates to the extent that such
classes are not issued with substantial discount. If taxable income
attributable to such a mismatching is realized, in general, losses would be
allowed in later years as distributions on the later classes of Regular
Certificates are made. Taxable income may also be greater in earlier years
than in later years as a result of the fact that interest expense deductions,
expressed as a percentage of the outstanding principal amount of such a
series of Regular Certificates, may increase over time as distributions in
reduction of principal are made on the lower yielding classes of Regular
Certificates, whereas to the extent that the REMIC Pool includes fixed rate
Mortgage Loans, interest income with respect to any given Mortgage Loan will
remain constant over time as a percentage of the outstanding principal amount
of that loan. Consequently, Residual Certificateholders must have sufficient
other sources of cash to pay any federal, state or local income taxes due as
a result of such mismatching or unrelated deductions against which to offset
such income, subject to the discussion of "excess inclusions" below under
"Limitations on Offset or Exemption of REMIC Income". The timing of such
mismatching of income and deductions described in this paragraph, if present
with respect to a series of Certificates, may have a significant adverse
effect upon the Residual Certificateholder's after-tax rate of return. In
addition, a Residual Certificateholder's taxable income during certain
periods may exceed the income reflected by such Residual Certificateholder
for such periods in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Investors should consult their own accountants concerning the accounting
treatment of their investment in Residual Certificates.
Basis and Losses
The amount of any net loss of the REMIC Pool that may be taken into
account by the Residual Certificateholder is limited to the adjusted basis of
the Residual Certificate as of the close of the quarter (or time of
disposition of the Residual Certificate if earlier), determined without
taking into account the net loss for the quarter. The initial adjusted basis
of a purchaser of a Residual Certificate is the amount paid for such Residual
Certificate. Such adjusted basis will be increased by the amount of taxable
income of the REMIC Pool reportable by the Residual Certificateholder and
will be decreased (but not below zero), first, by a cash distribution from
the REMIC Pool and, second, by the amount of loss of the REMIC Pool
reportable by the Residual Certificateholder. Any loss that is disallowed on
account of this limitation may be carried over indefinitely with respect to
the Residual Certificateholder as to whom such loss was disallowed and may be
used by such Residual Certificateholder only to offset any income generated
by the same REMIC Pool.
A Residual Certificateholder will not be permitted to amortize directly
the cost of its Residual Certificate as an offset to its share of the taxable
income of the related REMIC Pool. However, that taxable income will not
include cash received by the REMIC Pool that represents a recovery of the
REMIC Pool's basis in its assets. Such recovery of basis by the REMIC Pool
will have the effect of amortization of the issue price of the Residual
Certificates over their life. However, in view of the possible acceleration
of the income of Residual Certificateholders described above under "Taxation
of REMIC Income", the period of time over which such issue price is
effectively amortized may be longer than the economic life of the Residual
Certificates.
80
<PAGE>
A Residual Certificate may have a negative value if the net present value
of anticipated tax liabilities exceeds the present value of anticipated cash
flows. The REMIC Regulations appear to treat the issue price of such a
residual interest as zero rather than such negative amount for purposes of
determining the REMIC Pool's basis in its assets. The preamble to the REMIC
Regulations states that the Service may provide future guidance on the proper
tax treatment of payments made by a transferor of such a residual interest to
induce the transferee to acquire the interest, and Residual
Certificateholders should consult their own tax advisors in this regard.
Further, to the extent that the initial adjusted basis of a Residual
Certificateholder (other than an original holder) in the Residual Certificate
is greater that the corresponding portion of the REMIC Pool's basis in the
Mortgage Loans, the Residual Certificateholder will not recover a portion of
such basis until termination of the REMIC Pool unless future Treasury
regulations provide for periodic adjustments to the REMIC income otherwise
reportable by such holder. The REMIC Regulations currently in effect do not
so provide. See "Treatment of Certain Items of REMIC Income and
Expense--Market Discount" below regarding the basis of Mortgage Loans to the
REMIC Pool and "Sale or Exchange of a Residual Certificate" below regarding
possible treatment of a loss upon termination of the REMIC Pool as a capital
loss.
Treatment of Certain Items of REMIC Income and Expense
Although the Depositor intends to compute REMIC income and expense in
accordance with the Code and applicable regulations, the authorities
regarding the determination of specific items of income and expense are
subject to differing interpretations. The Depositor makes no representation
as to the specific method that it will use for reporting income with respect
to the Mortgage Loans and expenses with respect to the Regular Certificates,
and different methods could result in different timing of reporting of
taxable income or net loss to Residual Certificateholders or differences in
capital gain versus ordinary income.
Original Issue Discount and Premium. Generally, the REMIC Pool's
deductions for original issue discount and income from amortization of issue
premium will be determined in the same manner as original issue discount
income on Regular Certificates as described above under "Taxation of Regular
Certificates--Original Issue Discount" and "--Variable Rate Regular
Certificates", without regard to the de minimis rule described therein, and
"--Premium".
Deferred Interest. Any Deferred Interest that accrues with respect to any
adjustable rate Mortgage Loans held by the REMIC Pool will constitute income
to the REMIC Pool and will be treated in a manner similar to the Deferred
Interest that accrues with respect to Regular Certificates as described above
under "Taxation of Regular Certificates--Deferred Interest".
Market Discount. The REMIC Pool will have market discount income in
respect of Mortgage Loans if, in general, the basis of the REMIC Pool
allocable to such Mortgage Loans is exceeded by their unpaid principal
balances. The REMIC Pool's basis in such Mortgage Loans is generally the fair
market value of the Mortgage Loans immediately after the transfer thereof to
the REMIC Pool. The REMIC Regulations provide that such basis is equal in the
aggregate to the issue prices of all regular and residual interests in the
REMIC Pool (or the fair market value thereof at the Closing Date, in the case
of a retained Class). In respect of Mortgage Loans that have market discount
to which Code Section 1276 applies, the accrued portion of such market
discount would be recognized currently as an item of ordinary income in a
manner similar to original issue discount. Market discount income generally
should accrue in the manner described above under "Taxation of Regular
Certificates--Market Discount".
Premium. Generally, if the basis of the REMIC Pool in the Mortgage Loans
exceeds the unpaid principal balances thereof, the REMIC Pool will be
considered to have acquired such Mortgage Loans at a premium equal to the
amount of such excess. As stated above, the REMIC Pool's basis in Mortgage
Loans is the fair market value of the Mortgage Loans, based on the aggregate
of the issue prices (or the fair market value of retained Classes) of the
regular and residual interests in the REMIC Pool immediately after the
transfer thereof to the REMIC Pool. In a manner analogous to the discussion
above under "Taxation of Regular Certificates--Premium", a REMIC Pool that
holds a Mortgage Loan as a
81
<PAGE>
capital asset under Code Section 1221 may elect under Code Section 171 to
amortize premium on whole mortgage loans or mortgage loans underlying MBS
that were originated after September 27, 1985 or MBS that are REMIC regular
interests under the constant yield method. Amortizable bond premium will be
treated as an offset to interest income on the Mortgage Loans, rather than as
a separate deduction item. To the extent that the mortgagors with respect to
the Mortgage Loans are individuals, Code Section 171 will not be available
for premium on Mortgage Loans (including underlying mortgage loans)
originated on or prior to September 27, 1985. Premium with respect to such
Mortgage Loans may be deductible in accordance with a reasonable method
regularly employed by the holder thereof. The allocation of such premium pro
rata among principal payments should be considered a reasonable method;
however, the Service may argue that such premium should be allocated in a
different manner, such as allocating such premium entirely to the final
payment of principal.
Limitations on Offset or Exemption of REMIC Income
Except in the case of certain thrift institutions, a portion or all of the
REMIC taxable income includible in determining the federal income tax
liability of a Residual Certificateholder will be subject to special
treatment. That portion, referred to as the "excess inclusion", is equal to
the excess of REMIC taxable income for the calendar quarter allocable to a
Residual Certificate over the daily accruals for such quarterly period of (i)
120% of the long-term applicable Federal rate that would have applied to the
Residual Certificate (if it were a debt instrument) on the Startup Day under
Code Section 1274(d), multiplied by (ii) the adjusted issue price of such
Residual Certificate at the beginning of such quarterly period. For this
purpose, the adjusted issue price of a Residual Certificate at the beginning
of a quarter is the issue price of the Residual Certificate, plus the amount
of such daily accruals of REMIC income described in this paragraph for all
prior quarters, decreased by any distributions made with respect to such
Residual Certificate prior to the beginning of such quarterly period.
Accordingly, the portion of the REMIC Pool's taxable income that will be
treated as excess inclusions will be a larger portion of such income as the
adjusted issue price of the Residual Certificates diminishes.
The portion of a Residual Certificateholder's REMIC taxable income
consisting of the excess inclusions generally may not be offset by other
deductions, including net operating loss carryforwards, on such Residual
Certificateholder's return. Further, if the Residual Certificateholder is an
organization subject to the tax on unrelated business income imposed by Code
Section 511, the Residual Certificateholder's excess inclusions will be
treated as unrelated business taxable income of such Residual
Certificateholder for purposes of Code Section 511. In addition, REMIC
taxable income is subject to 30% withholding tax with respect to certain
persons who are not U.S. Persons (as defined below under "Tax-Related
Restrictions on Transfer of Residual Certificates--Foreign Investors"), and
the portion thereof attributable to excess inclusions is not eligible for any
reduction in the rate of withholding tax (by treaty or otherwise). See
"Taxation of Certain Foreign Investors--Residual Certificates" below.
Finally, if a real estate investment trust or a regulated investment company
owns a Residual Certificate, a portion (allocated under Treasury regulations
yet to be issued) of dividends paid by the real estate investment trust or a
regulated investment company could not be offset by net operating losses of
its shareholders, would constitute unrelated business taxable income for
tax-exempt shareholders, and would be ineligible for reduction of withholding
to certain persons who are not U.S. Persons.
An exception to the inability of a Residual Certificateholder to offset
excess inclusions with unrelated deductions and net operating losses applies
to Code Section 593 institutions ("thrift institutions"). For purposes of
applying this rule, all members of an affiliated group filing a consolidated
return are treated as one taxpayer, except that thrift institutions to which
Code Section 593 applies, together with their subsidiaries formed to issue
REMICs, are treated as separate corporations. Furthermore, the Code provides
that regulations may disallow the ability of a thrift institution to use
deductions to offset excess inclusions if necessary or appropriate to prevent
the avoidance of tax. A thrift institution may not so offset its excess
inclusions unless the Residual Certificates have "significant value", which
requires that (i) the Residual Certificates have an issue price that is at
least equal to 2% of the aggregate of the issue prices of all Residual
Certificates and Regular Certificates with respect to the REMIC Pool and (ii)
the anticipated weighted average life of the Residual Certificates is at
least 20% of the anticipated weighted average life of the REMIC Pool. The
anticipated weighted average life of the Residual Certificates is
82
<PAGE>
based on all distributions anticipated to be received with respect thereto
(using the Prepayment Assumption). The anticipated weighted average life of
the REMIC Pool is the aggregate weighted average life of all classes of
interests therein (computed using all anticipated distributions on a regular
interest with nominal or no principal). Finally, an ordering rule under the
REMIC Regulations provides that a thrift institution may only offset its
excess inclusion income with deductions after it has first applied its
deductions against income that is not excess inclusion income. If applicable,
the Prospectus Supplement with respect to a Series will set forth whether the
Residual Certificates are expected to have "significant value" within the
meaning of the REMIC Regulations.
Tax-Related Restrictions on Transfer of Residual Certificates
Disqualified Organizations. If any legal or beneficial interest in a
Residual Certificate is transferred to a Disqualified Organization (as
defined below), a tax would be imposed in an amount equal to the product of
(i) the present value of the total anticipated excess inclusions with respect
to such Residual Certificate for periods after the transfer and (ii) the
highest marginal federal income tax rate applicable to corporations. The
REMIC Regulations provide that the anticipated excess inclusions are based on
actual prepayment experience to the date of the transfer and projected
payments based on the Prepayment Assumption. The present value rate equals
the applicable Federal rate under Code Section 1274(d) as of the date of the
transfer for a term ending with the last calendar quarter in which excess
inclusions are expected to accrue. Such a tax generally would be imposed on
the transferor of the Residual Certificate, except that where such transfer
is through an agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) for a
Disqualified Organization, the tax would instead be imposed on such agent.
However, a transferor of a 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. The tax also may be
waived by the Treasury Department if the Disqualified Organization promptly
disposes of the residual interest and the transferor pays income tax at the
highest corporate rate on the excess inclusions for the period the Residual
Certificate is actually held by the Disqualified Organization.
In addition, if a "Pass-Through Entity" (as defined below) has excess
inclusion income with respect to a Residual Certificate during a taxable year
and a Disqualified Organization is the record holder of an equity interest in
such entity, then a tax is imposed on such entity equal to the product of (i)
the amount of excess inclusions on the Residual Certificate that are
allocable to the interest in the Pass-Through Entity during the period such
interest is held by such Disqualified Organization, and (ii) the highest
marginal federal corporate income tax rate. Such tax would be deductible from
the ordinary gross income of the Pass-Through Entity for the taxable year.
The Pass-Through Entity would not be liable for such tax if it has received
an affidavit from such record holder that it is not a Disqualified
Organization or stating such holder's taxpayer identification number and,
during the period such person is the record holder of the Residual
Certificate, the Pass-Through Entity does not have actual knowledge that such
affidavit is false.
For these purposes, (i) "Disqualified Organization" means the United
States, any state or political subdivision thereof, any foreign government,
any international organization, any agency or instrumentality of any of the
foregoing (provided, that such term does not include an instrumentality if
all of its activities are subject to tax and a majority of its board of
directors is not selected by any such governmental entity), any cooperative
organization furnishing electric energy or providing telephone service to
persons in rural areas as described in Code Section 1381(a)(2)(C), and any
organization (other than a farmers' cooperative described in Code Section
521) that is exempt from taxation under the Code unless such organization is
subject to the tax on unrelated business income imposed by Code Section 511,
and (ii) "Pass-Through Entity" means any regulated investment company, real
estate investment trust, common trust fund, partnership, trust or estate and
certain corporations operating on a cooperative basis. Except as may be
provided in Treasury regulations, any person holding an interest in a
Pass-Through Entity as a nominee for another will, with respect to such
interest, be treated as a Pass-Through Entity.
The Pooling Agreement with respect to a series of Certificates will
provide that no legal or beneficial interest in a Residual Certificate may be
transferred unless (i) the proposed transferee provides to the
83
<PAGE>
transferor and the Trustee an affidavit providing its taxpayer identification
number and stating that such transferee is the beneficial owner of the
Residual Certificate, is not a Disqualified Organization and is not
purchasing such Residual Certificates on behalf of a Disqualified
Organization (i.e., as a broker, nominee or middleman thereof), and (ii) the
transferor provides a statement in writing to the Depositor and the Trustee
that it has no actual knowledge that such affidavit is false. Moreover, the
Pooling Agreement will provide that any attempted or purported transfer in
violation of these transfer restrictions will be null and void and will vest
no rights in any purported transferee. Each Residual Certificate with respect
to a series will bear a legend referring to such restrictions on transfer,
and each Residual Certificateholder will be deemed to have agreed, as a
condition of ownership thereof, to any amendments to the related Pooling
Agreement required under the Code or applicable Treasury regulations to
effectuate the foregoing restrictions. Information necessary to compute an
applicable excise tax must be furnished to the Service and to the requesting
party within 60 days of the request, and the Depositor or the Trustee may
charge a fee for computing and providing such information.
Noneconomic Residual Interests. The REMIC Regulations would disregard
certain transfers of Residual Certificates, in which case the transferor
would continue to be treated as the owner of the Residual Certificates and
thus would continue to be subject to tax on its allocable portion of the net
income of the REMIC Pool. Under the REMIC Regulations, a transfer of a
"noneconomic residual interest" (as defined below) to a Residual
Certificateholder (other than a Residual Certificateholder who is not a U.S.
Person, as defined below under "Foreign Investors") is disregarded for all
federal income tax purposes if a significant purpose of the transferor is to
impede the assessment or collection of tax. A residual interest in a REMIC
(including a residual interest with a positive value at issuance) is a
"noneconomic residual interest" unless, at the time of the transfer, (i) the
present value of the expected future distributions on the residual interest
at least equals the product of the present value of the anticipated excess
inclusions and the highest corporate income tax rate in effect for the year
in which the transfer occurs, and (ii) the transferor reasonably expects that
the transferee will receive distributions from the REMIC at or after the time
at which taxes accrue on the anticipated excess inclusions in an amount
sufficient to satisfy the accrued taxes. The anticipated excess inclusions
and the present value rate are determined in the same manner as set forth
above under "Disqualified Organizations". The REMIC Regulations explain that
a significant purpose to impede the assessment or collection of tax exists if
the transferor, at the time of the transfer, either knew or should have known
that the transferee would be unwilling or unable to pay taxes due on its
share of the taxable income of the REMIC. A safe harbor is provided if (i)
the transferor conducted, at the time of the transfer, a reasonable
investigation of the financial condition of the transferee and found that the
transferee historically had paid its debts as they came due and found no
significant evidence to indicate that the transferee would not continue to
pay its debts as they came due in the future, and (ii) the transferee
represents to the transferor that it understands that, as the holder of the
noneconomic residual interest, the transferee may incur tax liabilities in
excess of cash flows generated by the interest and that the transferee
intends to pay taxes associated with holding the residual interest as they
become due. The Pooling Agreement with respect to each series of Certificates
will require the transferee of a Residual Certificate to certify to the
matters in the preceding sentence as part of the affidavit described above
under the heading "Disqualified Organizations". The transferor must have no
actual knowledge or reason to know that such statements are false.
Foreign Investors. The REMIC Regulations provide that the transfer of a
Residual Certificate that has "tax avoidance potential" to a "foreign person"
will be disregarded for all federal tax purposes. This rule appears intended
to apply to a transferee who is not a "U.S. Person" (as defined below),
unless such transferee's income is effectively connected with the conduct of
a trade or business within the United States. A Residual Certificate is
deemed to have tax avoidance potential unless, at the time of the transfer,
(i) the future value of expected distributions equals at least 30% of the
anticipated excess inclusions after the transfer, and (ii) the transferor
reasonably expects that the transferee will receive sufficient distributions
from the REMIC Pool at or after the time at which the excess inclusions
accrue and prior to the end of the next succeeding taxable year for the
accumulated withholding tax liability to be paid. If the non-U.S. Person
transfers the Residual Certificate back to a U.S. Person, the transfer will
be disregarded and the foreign transferor will continue to be treated as the
owner unless arrangements are made so that the transfer does not have the
effect of allowing the transferor to avoid tax on accrued excess inclusions.
84
<PAGE>
The Prospectus Supplement relating to a series of Certificates may provide
that a Residual Certificate may not be purchased by or transferred to any
person that is not a U.S. Person or may describe the circumstances and
restrictions pursuant to which such a transfer may be made. The term "U.S.
Person" means a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation,
partnership or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the
United States or any political subdivision thereof or an estate or trust that
is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of the source of its income.
Sale or Exchange of a Residual Certificate
Upon the sale or exchange of a Residual Certificate, the Residual
Certificateholder will recognize gain or loss equal to the excess, if any, of
the amount realized over the adjusted basis (as described above under
"Taxation of Residual Certificates--Basis and Losses") of such Residual
Certificateholder in such Residual Certificate at the time of the sale or
exchange. In addition to reporting the taxable income of the REMIC Pool, a
Residual Certificateholder will have taxable income to the extent that any
cash distribution to it from the REMIC Pool exceeds such adjusted basis on
that Distribution Date. Such income will be treated as gain from the sale or
exchange of the Residual Certificate. It is possible that the termination of
the REMIC Pool may be treated as a sale or exchange of a Residual
Certificateholder's Residual Certificate, in which case, if the Residual
Certificateholder has an adjusted basis in such Residual Certificateholder's
Residual Certificate remaining when its interest in the REMIC Pool
terminates, and if such Residual Certificateholder holds such Residual
Certificate as a capital asset under Code Section 1221, then such Residual
Certificateholder will recognize a capital loss at that time in the amount of
such remaining adjusted basis.
Any gain on the sale of a Residual Certificate will be treated as ordinary
income (i) if a Residual Certificate is held as part of a "conversion
transaction" as defined in Code Section 1258(c), up to the amount of interest
that would have accrued on the Residual Certificateholder's net investment in
the conversion transaction at 120% of the appropriate applicable Federal rate
in effect at the time the taxpayer entered into the transaction minus any
amount previously treated as ordinary income with respect to any prior
disposition of property that was held as a part of such transaction or (ii)
in the case of a non-corporate taxpayer, to the extent such taxpayer has made
an election under Code Section 163(d)(4) to have net capital gains taxed as
investment income at ordinary income rates. In addition, gain or loss
recognized from the sale of a Residual Certificate by certain banks or thrift
institutions will be treated as ordinary income or loss pursuant to Code
Section 582(c).
The Conference Committee Report to the 1986 Act provides that, except as
provided in Treasury regulations yet to be issued, the wash sale rules of
Code Section 1091 will apply to dispositions of Residual Certificates where
the seller of the Residual Certificate, during the period beginning six
months before the sale or disposition of the Residual Certificate and ending
six months after such sale or disposition, acquires (or enters into any other
transaction that results in the application of Section 1091) any residual
interest in any REMIC or any interest in a "taxable mortgage pool" (such as a
non-REMIC owner trust) that is economically comparable to a Residual
Certificate.
Mark to Market Regulations
Prospective purchasers of the Residual Certificates should also be aware
that on January 3, 1995, the Service released proposed regulations (the
"Proposed Mark to Market Regulations") under Code Section 475 relating to the
requirement that a securities dealer mark to market securities held for sale
to customers. This mark-to-market requirement applies to all securities of a
dealer, except to the extent that the dealer has specifically identified a
security as held for investment. The Proposed Mark to Market Regulations
provide that, for purposes of this mark-to-market requirement, a Residual
Certificate is not treated as a security and thus may not be marked to
market. The Proposed Mark to Market Regulations would apply to all Residual
Certificates acquired on or after January 4, 1995.

TAXES THAT MAY BE IMPOSED ON THE REMIC POOL
Prohibited Transactions
Income from certain transactions by the REMIC Pool, called prohibited
transactions, will not be part of the calculation of income or loss
includible in the federal income tax returns of Residual Certificateholders,
but rather will be taxed directly to the REMIC Pool at a 100% rate.
Prohibited transactions generally include (i) the disposition of a qualified
mortgage other than for (a) substitution within two years of the Startup Day
for a defective (including a defaulted) obligation (or repurchase in lieu of
substitution of a defective (including a defaulted) obligation at any time)
or for any qualified mortgage within three months of the Startup Day, (b)
foreclosure, default or imminent default of a qualified mortgage, (c)
bankruptcy or insolvency of the REMIC Pool or (d) a qualified (complete)
liquidation, (ii) the receipt of income from assets that are not the type of
mortgages or investments that the REMIC Pool is permitted to hold, (iii) the
receipt of compensation for services or (iv) the receipt of gain from
disposition of cash flow investments other than pursuant to a qualified
liquidation. Notwithstanding (i) and (iv), it is not a prohibited transaction
to sell REMIC Pool property to prevent a default on Regular Certificates as a
result of a default on qualified mortgages or to facilitate a clean-up call
(generally, an optional termination to save administrative costs when no more
than a small percentage of the Certificates is outstanding). The REMIC
Regulations indicate that the modification of a Mortgage Loan generally will
not be treated as a disposition if it is occasioned by a default or
reasonably foreseeable default, an assumption of the Mortgage Loan, the
waiver of a due-on-sale or due-on-encumbrance clause or the conversion of an
interest rate by a mortgagor pursuant to the terms of a convertible
adjustable rate Mortgage Loan.
Contributions to the REMIC Pool After the Startup Day
In general, the REMIC Pool will be subject to a tax at a 100% rate on the
value of any property contributed to the REMIC Pool after the Startup Day.
Exceptions are provided for cash contributions to the REMIC Pool (i) during
the three months following the Startup Day, (ii) made to a qualified reserve
fund by a Residual Certificateholder, (iii) in the nature of a guarantee,
(iv) made to facilitate a qualified liquidation or clean-up call and (v) as
otherwise permitted in Treasury regulations yet to be issued.
Net Income from Foreclosure Property
The REMIC Pool will be subject to federal income tax at the highest
corporate rate on "net income from foreclosure property", determined by
reference to the rules applicable to real estate investment trusts.
Generally, property acquired by deed in lieu of foreclosure would be treated
as "foreclosure property" for a period of two years, with possible
extensions. 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.
It is not anticipated that the REMIC Pool will receive income or
contributions subject to tax under the preceding three paragraphs, except as
described in the applicable Prospectus Supplement with respect to net income
from foreclosure property on a commercial or multifamily residential property
that secured a Mortgage Loan. In addition, unless otherwise disclosed in the
applicable Prospectus Supplement, it is not anticipated that any material
state income or franchise tax will be imposed on a REMIC Pool.
LIQUIDATION OF THE REMIC POOL
If a REMIC Pool adopts a plan of complete liquidation, within the meaning
of Code Section 860F(a)(4)(A)(i), which may be accomplished by designating in
the REMIC Pool's final tax return a date on which such adoption is deemed to
occur, and sells all of its assets (other than cash) within a 90-day period
beginning on the date of the adoption of the plan of liquidation, the REMIC
Pool will not be subject to the prohibited transaction rules on the sale of
its assets, provided that the REMIC Pool credits or distributes in
liquidation all of the sale proceeds plus its cash (other than amounts
retained to meet claims) to holders of Regular Certificates and Residual
Certificateholders within the 90-day period.
86
<PAGE>
ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS
The REMIC Pool will be required to maintain its books on a calendar year
basis and to file federal income tax returns for federal income tax purposes
in a manner similar to a partnership. The form for such income tax return is
Form 1066, U.S. Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit Income Tax Return.
The Trustee will be required to sign the REMIC Pool's returns. Treasury
regulations provide that, except where there is a single Residual
Certificateholder for an entire taxable year, the REMIC Pool will be subject
to the procedural and administrative rules of the Code applicable to
partnerships, including the determination by the Service of any adjustments
to, among other things, items of REMIC income, gain, loss, deduction or
credit in a unified administrative proceeding. The Residual Certificateholder
owning the largest percentage interest in the Residual Certificates will be
obligated to act as "tax matters person", as defined in applicable Treasury
regulations, with respect to the REMIC Pool. Each Residual Certificateholder
will be deemed, by acceptance of such Residual Certificates, to have agreed
(i) to the appointment of the tax matters person as provided in the preceding
sentence and (ii) to the irrevocable designation of the Master Servicer as
agent for performing the functions of the tax matters person.
LIMITATIONS ON DEDUCTION OF CERTAIN EXPENSES
An investor who is an individual, estate or trust will be subject to
limitation with respect to certain itemized deductions described in Code
Section 67, to the extent that such itemized deductions, in the aggregate, do
not exceed 2% of the investor's adjusted gross income. In addition, Code
Section 68 provides that itemized deductions otherwise allowable for a
taxable year of an individual taxpayer will be reduced by the lesser of (i)
3% of the excess, if any, of adjusted gross income over $100,000 ($50,000 in
the case of a married individual filing a separate return) (subject to
adjustments for inflation) or (ii) 80% of the amount of itemized deductions
otherwise allowable for such year. In the case of a REMIC Pool, such
deductions may include deductions under Code Section 212 for the servicing
fee and all administrative and other expenses relating to the REMIC Pool, or
any similar expenses allocated to the REMIC Pool with respect to a regular
interest it holds in another REMIC. Such investors who hold REMIC
Certificates either directly or indirectly through certain pass-through
entities may have their pro rata share of such expenses allocated to them as
additional gross income, but may be subject to such limitation on deductions.
In addition, such expenses are not deductible at all for purposes of
computing the alternative minimum tax, and may cause such investors to be
subject to significant additional tax liability. Temporary Treasury
regulations provide that the additional gross income and corresponding amount
of expenses generally are to be allocated entirely to the holders of Residual
Certificates in the case of a REMIC Pool that would not qualify as a fixed
investment trust in the absence of a REMIC election. However, such additional
gross income and limitation on deductions will apply to the allocable portion
of such expenses to holders of Regular Certificates, as well as holders of
Residual Certificates, where such Regular Certificates are issued in a manner
that is similar to pass-through certificates in a fixed investment trust. In
general, such allocable portion will be determined based on the ratio that a
REMIC Certificateholder's income, determined on a daily basis, bears to the
income of all holders of Regular Certificates and Residual Certificates with
respect to a REMIC Pool. As a result, individuals, estates or trusts holding
REMIC Certificates (either directly or indirectly through a grantor trust,
partnership, S corporation, REMIC, or certain other pass-through entities
described in the foregoing temporary Treasury regulations) may have taxable
income in excess of the interest income at the pass-through rate on Regular
Certificates that are issued in a single Class or otherwise consistently with
fixed investment trust status or in excess of cash distributions for the
related period on Residual Certificates. Unless otherwise indicated in the
applicable Prospectus Supplement, all such expenses will be allocable to the
Residual Certificates.
TAXATION OF CERTAIN FOREIGN INVESTORS
Regular Certificates
Interest, including original issue discount, distributable to Regular
Certificateholders who are non-resident aliens, foreign corporations, or
other Non-U.S. Persons (as defined below), will be considered "portfolio
interest" and, therefore, generally will not be subject to 30% United States
87
<PAGE>
withholding tax, provided that such Non-U.S. Person (i) is not a "10-percent
shareholder" within the meaning of Code Section 871(h)(3)(B) or a controlled
foreign corporation described in Code Section 881(c)(3)(C) and (ii) provides
the Trustee, or the person who would otherwise be required to withhold tax
from such distributions under Code Section 1441 or 1442, with an appropriate
statement, signed under penalties of perjury, identifying the beneficial
owner and stating, among other things, that the beneficial owner of the
Regular Certificate is a Non-U.S. Person. If such statement, or any other
required statement, is not provided, 30% withholding will apply unless
reduced or eliminated pursuant to an applicable tax treaty or unless the
interest on the Regular Certificate is effectively connected with the conduct
of a trade or business within the United States by such Non-U.S. Person. In
the latter case, such Non-U.S. Person will be subject to United States
federal income tax at regular rates. Prepayment Premiums distributable to
Regular Certificateholders who are Non-U.S. Persons may be subject to 30%
United States withholding tax. Investors who are Non-U.S. Persons should
consult their own tax advisors regarding the specific tax consequences to
them of owning a Regular Certificate. The term "Non-U.S. Person" means any
person who is not a U.S. Person.
Residual Certificates
The Conference Committee Report to the 1986 Act indicates that amounts
paid to Residual Certificateholders who are Non-U.S. Persons are treated as
interest for purposes of the 30% (or lower treaty rate) United States
withholding tax. Treasury regulations provide that amounts distributed to
Residual Certificateholders may qualify as "portfolio interest", subject to
the conditions described in "Regular Certificates" above, but only to the
extent that (i) the Mortgage Loans (including mortgage loans underlying MBS)
were issued after July 18, 1984 and (ii) the Trust Fund or segregated pool of
assets therein (as to which a separate REMIC election will be made), to which
the Residual Certificate relates, consists of obligations issued in
"registered form" within the meaning of Code Section 163(f)(1). Generally,
whole mortgage loans will not be, but MBS and regular interests in another
REMIC Pool will be, considered obligations issued in registered form.
Furthermore, a Residual Certificateholder will not be entitled to any
exemption from the 30% withholding tax (or lower treaty rate) to the extent
of that portion of REMIC taxable income that constitutes an "excess
inclusion". See "Taxation of Residual Certificates-- Limitations on Offset or
Exemption of REMIC Income". If the amounts paid to Residual
Certificateholders who are Non-U.S. Persons are effectively connected with
the conduct of a trade or business within the United States by such Non-U.S.
Persons, 30% (or lower treaty rate) withholding will not apply. Instead, the
amounts paid to such Non-U.S. Persons will be subject to United States
federal income tax at regular rates. If 30% (or lower treaty rate)
withholding is applicable, such amounts generally will be taken into account
for purposes of withholding only when paid or otherwise distributed (or when
the Residual Certificate is disposed of) under rules similar to withholding
upon disposition of debt instruments that have original issue discount. See
"Tax-Related Restrictions on Transfer of Residual Certificates--Foreign
Investors" above concerning the disregard of certain transfers having "tax
avoidance potential". Investors who are Non-U.S. Persons should consult their
own tax advisors regarding the specific tax consequences to them of owning
Residual Certificates.
BACKUP WITHHOLDING
Distributions made on the Regular Certificates, and proceeds from the sale
of the Regular Certificates to or through certain brokers, may be subject to
a "backup" withholding tax under Code Section 3406 of 31% on "reportable
payments" (including interest distributions, original issue discount, and,
under certain circumstances, principal distributions) unless the Regular
Certificateholder complies with certain reporting and/or certification
procedures, including the provision of its taxpayer identification number to
the Trustee, its agent or the broker who effected the sale of the Regular
Certificate, or such Certificateholder is otherwise an exempt recipient under
applicable provisions of the Code. Any amounts to be withheld from
distribution on the Regular Certificates would be refunded by the Service or
allowed as a credit against the Regular Certificateholder's federal income
tax liability.
REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
Reports of accrued interest, original issue discount and information
necessary to compute the accrual of any market discount on the Regular
Certificates will be made annually to the Service and to individuals,
88
<PAGE>
estates, non-exempt and non-charitable trusts, and partnerships who are
either holders of record of Regular Certificates or beneficial owners who own
Regular Certificates through a broker or middleman as nominee. All brokers,
nominees and all other non-exempt holders of record of Regular Certificates
(including corporations, non-calendar year taxpayers, securities or
commodities dealers, real estate investment trusts, investment companies,
common trust funds, thrift institutions and charitable trusts) may request
such information for any calendar quarter by telephone or in writing by
contacting the person designated in Service Publication 938 with respect to a
particular series of Regular Certificates. Holders through nominees must
request such information from the nominee.
The Service's Form 1066 has an accompanying Schedule Q, Quarterly Notice
to Residual Interest Holders of REMIC Taxable Income or Net Loss Allocation.
Treasury regulations require that Schedule Q be furnished by the REMIC Pool
to each Residual Certificateholder by the end of the month following the
close of each calendar quarter (41 days after the end of a quarter under
proposed Treasury regulations) in which the REMIC Pool is in existence.
Treasury regulations require that, in addition to the foregoing
requirements, information must be furnished quarterly to Residual
Certificateholders, furnished annually, if applicable, to holders of Regular
Certificates, and filed annually with the Service concerning Code Section 67
expenses (see "Limitations on Deduction of Certain Expenses" above) allocable
to such holders. Furthermore, under such regulations, information must be
furnished quarterly to Residual Certificateholders, furnished annually to
holders of Regular Certificates, and filed annually with the Service
concerning the percentage of the REMIC Pool's assets meeting the qualified
asset tests described above under "Status of REMIC Certificates".
FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES FOR CERTIFICATES AS
TO WHICH NO REMIC ELECTION IS MADE
STANDARD CERTIFICATES
General
In the event that no election is made to treat a Trust Fund (or a
segregated pool of assets therein) with respect to a series of Certificates
that are not designated as "Stripped Certificates", as described below, as a
REMIC (Certificates of such a series hereinafter referred to as "Standard
Certificates"), the Trust Fund will be classified as a grantor trust under
subpart E, Part 1 of subchapter J of the Code and not as an association
taxable as a corporation or a "taxable mortgage pool" within the meaning of
Code Section 7701(i). Where there is no fixed retained yield with respect to
the Mortgage Loans underlying the Standard Certificates, the holder of each
such Standard Certificate (a "Standard Certificateholder") in such series
will be treated as the owner of a pro rata undivided interest in the ordinary
income and corpus portions of the Trust Fund represented by its Standard
Certificate and will be considered the beneficial owner of a pro rata
undivided interest in each of the Mortgage Loans, subject to the discussion
below under "Recharacterization of Servicing Fees". Accordingly, the holder
of a Standard Certificate of a particular series will be required to report
on its federal income tax return its pro rata share of the entire income from
the Mortgage Loans represented by its Standard Certificate, including
interest at the coupon rate on such Mortgage Loans, original issue discount
(if any), prepayment fees, assumption fees, and late payment charges received
by the Master Servicer, in accordance with such Standard Certificateholder's
method of accounting. A Standard Certificateholder generally will be able to
deduct its share of the servicing fee and all administrative and other
expenses of the Trust Fund in accordance with its method of accounting,
provided that such amounts are reasonable compensation for services rendered
to that Trust Fund. However, investors who are individuals, estates or trusts
who own Standard Certificates, either directly or indirectly through certain
pass-through entities, will be subject to limitation with respect to certain
itemized deductions described in Code Section 67, including deductions under
Code Section 212 for the servicing fee and all such administrative and other
expenses of the Trust Fund, to the extent that such deductions, in the
aggregate, do not exceed two percent of an investor's adjusted gross income.
In addition, Code Section 68 provides that itemized deductions otherwise
allowable for a taxable year of an individual taxpayer will be reduced by the
lesser of (i) 3% of the excess, if any, of adjusted gross income
89
<PAGE>
over $100,000 ($50,000 in the case of a married individual filing a separate
return) (subject to adjustments for inflation), or (ii) 80% of the amount of
itemized deductions otherwise allowable for such year. As a result, such
investors holding Standard Certificates, directly or indirectly through a
pass-through entity, may have aggregate taxable income in excess of the
aggregate amount of cash received on such Standard Certificates with respect
to interest at the pass-through rate on such Standard Certificates. In
addition, such expenses are not deductible at all for purposes of computing
the alternative minimum tax, and may cause such investors to be subject to
significant additional tax liability. Moreover, where there is fixed retained
yield with respect to the Mortgage Loans underlying a series of Standard
Certificates or where the servicing fee is in excess of reasonable servicing
compensation, the transaction will be subject to the application of the
"stripped bond" and "stripped coupon" rules of the Code, as described below
under "Stripped Certificates" and "Recharacterization of Servicing Fees",
respectively.
Tax Status
Standard Certificates will have the following status for federal income
tax purposes:
1. A Standard Certificate owned by a "domestic building and loan
association" within the meaning of Code Section 7701(a)(19) will be
considered to represent "loans secured by an interest in real property"
within the meaning of Code Section 7701(a)(19)(C)(v), provided that the real
property securing the Mortgage Loans represented by that Standard Certificate
is of the type described in such section of the Code.
2. A Standard Certificate owned by a financial institution described in
Code Section 593(a) will be considered to represent "qualifying real property
loans" within the meaning of Code Section 593(d)(1), provided that the real
property securing the Mortgage Loans represented by that Standard Certificate
is of the type described in such section of the Code.
3. A Standard Certificate owned by a real estate investment trust will be
considered to represent "real estate assets" within the meaning of Code
Section 856(c)(5)(A) to the extent that the assets of the related Trust Fund
consist of qualified assets, and interest income on such assets will be
considered "interest on obligations secured by mortgages on real property" to
such extent within the meaning of Code Section 856(c)(3)(B).
4. A Standard Certificate owned by a REMIC will be considered to represent
an "obligation . . . which is principally secured by an interest in real
property" within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(3)(A) to the extent that
the assets of the related Trust Fund consist of "qualified mortgages" within
the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(3).
Premium and Discount
Standard Certificateholders are advised to consult with their tax advisors
as to the federal income tax treatment of premium and discount arising either
upon initial acquisition of Standard Certificates or thereafter.
Premium. The treatment of premium incurred upon the purchase of a Standard
Certificate will be determined generally as described above under "Certain
Federal Income Tax Consequences for REMIC Certificates--Taxation of Residual
Certificates--Treatment of Certain Items of REMIC Income and
Expense--Premium".
Original Issue Discount. The original issue discount rules will be
applicable to a Standard Certificateholder's interest in those Mortgage Loans
as to which the conditions for the application of those sections are met.
Rules regarding periodic inclusion of original issue discount income are
applicable to mortgages of corporations originated after May 27, 1969,
mortgages of noncorporate mortgagors (other than individuals) originated
after July 1, 1982, and mortgages of individuals originated after March 2,
1984. Under the OID Regulations, such original issue discount could arise by
the charging of points by the originator of the mortgages in an amount
greater than a statutory de minimis exception, including a payment of points
currently deductible by the borrower under applicable Code provisions or,
under certain circumstances, by the presence of "teaser rates" on the
Mortgage Loans.
90
<PAGE>
Original issue discount must generally be reported as ordinary gross
income as it accrues under a constant interest method that takes into account
the compounding of interest, in advance of the cash attributable to such
income. Unless indicated otherwise in the applicable Prospectus Supplement,
no prepayment assumption will be assumed for purposes of such accrual.
However, Code Section 1272 provides for a reduction in the amount of original
issue discount includible in the income of a holder of an obligation that
acquires the obligation after its initial issuance at a price greater than
the sum of the original issue price and the previously accrued original issue
discount, less prior payments of principal. Accordingly, if such Mortgage
Loans acquired by a Standard Certificateholder are purchased at a price equal
to the then unpaid principal amount of such Mortgage Loans, no original issue
discount attributable to the difference between the issue price and the
original principal amount of such Mortgage Loans (i.e., points) will be
includible by such holder.
Market Discount. Standard Certificateholders also will be subject to the
market discount rules to the extent that the conditions for application of
those sections are met. Market discount on the Mortgage Loans will be
determined and will be reported as ordinary income generally in the manner
described above under "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences for REMIC
Certificates--Taxation of Regular Certificates--Market Discount", except that
the ratable accrual methods described therein will not apply and it is
unclear whether a Prepayment Assumption would apply. Rather, the holder will
accrue market discount pro rata over the life of the Mortgage Loans, unless
the constant yield method is elected. Unless indicated otherwise in the
applicable Prospectus Supplement, no prepayment assumption will be assumed
for purposes of such accrual.
Recharacterization of Servicing Fees
If the servicing fee paid to the Master Servicer were deemed to exceed
reasonable servicing compensation, the amount of such excess would represent
neither income nor a deduction to Certificateholders. In this regard, there
are no authoritative guidelines for federal income tax purposes as to either
the maximum amount of servicing compensation that may be considered
reasonable in the context of this or similar transactions or whether, in the
case of the Standard Certificate, the reasonableness of servicing
compensation should be determined on a weighted average or loan-by-loan
basis. If a loan-by-loan basis is appropriate, the likelihood that such
amount would exceed reasonable servicing compensation as to some of the
Mortgage Loans would be increased. Service guidance indicates that a
servicing fee in excess of reasonable compensation ("excess servicing") will
cause the Mortgage Loans to be treated under the "stripped bond" rules. Such
guidance provides safe harbors for servicing deemed to be reasonable and
requires taxpayers to demonstrate that the value of servicing fees in excess
of such amounts is not greater than the value of the services provided.
Accordingly, if the Service's approach is upheld, a servicer who receives
a servicing fee in excess of such amounts would be viewed as retaining an
ownership interest in a portion of the interest payments on the Mortgage
Loans. Under the rules of Code Section 1286, the separation of ownership of
the right to receive some or all of the interest payments on an obligation
from the right to receive some or all of the principal payments on the
obligation would result in treatment of such Mortgage Loans as "stripped
coupons" and "stripped bonds". Subject to the de minimis rule discussed below
under "--Stripped Certificates", each stripped bond or stripped coupon could
be considered for this purpose as a non-interest bearing obligation issued on
the date of issue of the Standard Certificates, and the original issue
discount rules of the Code would apply to the holder thereof. While Standard
Certificateholders would still be treated as owners of beneficial interests
in a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, the corpus of such trust
could be viewed as excluding the portion of the Mortgage Loans the ownership
of which is attributed to the Master Servicer, or as including such portion
as a second class of equitable interest. Applicable Treasury regulations
treat such an arrangement as a fixed investment trust, since the multiple
classes of trust interests should be treated as merely facilitating direct
investments in the trust assets and the existence of multiple classes of
ownership interests is incidental to that purpose. In general, such a
recharacterization should not have any significant effect upon the timing or
amount of income reported by a Standard Certificateholder, except that the
income reported by a cash method holder may be slightly accelerated. See
"Stripped Certificates" below for a further description of the federal income
tax treatment of stripped bonds and stripped coupons.
91
<PAGE>
Sale or Exchange of Standard Certificates
Upon sale or exchange of a Standard Certificate, a Standard
Certificateholder will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between
the amount realized on the sale and its aggregate adjusted basis in the
Mortgage Loans and the other assets represented by the Standard Certificate.
In general, the aggregate adjusted basis will equal the Standard
Certificateholder's cost for the Standard Certificate, increased by the
amount of any income previously reported with respect to the Standard
Certificate and decreased by the amount of any losses previously reported
with respect to the Standard Certificate and the amount of any distributions
received thereon. Except as provided above with respect to market discount on
any Mortgage Loans, and except for certain financial institutions subject to
the provisions of Code Section 582(c), any such gain or loss would be capital
gain or loss if the Standard Certificate was held as a capital asset.
However, gain on the sale of a Standard Certificate will be treated as
ordinary income (i) if a Standard Certificate is held as part of a
"conversion transaction" as defined in Code Section 1258(c), up to the amount
of interest that would have accrued on the Standard Certificateholder's net
investment in the conversion transaction at 120% of the appropriate
applicable Federal rate in effect at the time the taxpayer entered into the
transaction minus any amount previously treated as ordinary income with
respect to any prior disposition of property that was held as a part of such
transaction or (ii) in the case of a non-corporate taxpayer, to the extent
such taxpayer has made an election under Code Section 163(d)(4) to have net
capital gains taxed as investment income at ordinary income rates. Capital
gains of certain non-corporate taxpayers are subject to a lower maximum tax
rate than ordinary income of such taxpayers. The maximum tax rate for
corporations is the same with respect to both ordinary income and capital
gains.
STRIPPED CERTIFICATES
General
Pursuant to Code Section 1286, the separation of ownership of the right to
receive some or all of the principal payments on an obligation from ownership
of the right to receive some or all of the interest payments results in the
creation of "stripped bonds" with respect to principal payments and "stripped
coupons" with respect to interest payments. For purposes of this discussion,
Certificates that are subject to those rules will be referred to as "Stripped
Certificates". Stripped Certificates include "Stripped Interest Certificates"
and "Stripped Principal Certificates" (as defined in this Prospectus) as to
which no REMIC election is made.
The Certificates will be subject to those rules if (i) the Depositor or
any of its affiliates retains (for its own account or for purposes of
resale), in the form of fixed retained yield or otherwise, an ownership
interest in a portion of the payments on the Mortgage Loans, (ii) the Master
Servicer is treated as having an ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans to
the extent it is paid (or retains) servicing compensation in an amount
greater than reasonable consideration for servicing the Mortgage Loans (see
"Standard Certificates--Recharacterization of Servicing Fees" above) and
(iii) Certificates are issued in two or more classes or subclasses
representing the right to non-pro-rata percentages of the interest and
principal payments on the Mortgage Loans.
In general, a holder of a Stripped Certificate will be considered to own
"stripped bonds" with respect to its pro rata share of all or a portion of
the principal payments on each Mortgage Loan and/or "stripped coupons" with
respect to its pro rata share of all or a portion of the interest payments on
each Mortgage Loan, including the Stripped Certificate's allocable share of
the servicing fees paid to the Master Servicer, to the extent that such fees
represent reasonable compensation for services rendered. See discussion above
under "Standard Certificates--Recharacterization of Servicing Fees". Although
not free from doubt, for purposes of reporting to Stripped
Certificateholders, the servicing fees will be allocated to the Stripped
Certificates in proportion to the respective entitlements to distributions of
each class (or subclass) of Stripped Certificates for the related period or
periods. The holder of a Stripped Certificate generally will be entitled to a
deduction each year in respect of the servicing fees, as described above
under "Standard Certificates--General", subject to the limitation described
therein.
92
<PAGE>
Code Section 1286 treats a stripped bond or a stripped coupon as an
obligation issued at an original issue discount on the date that such
stripped interest is purchased. Although the treatment of Stripped
Certificates for federal income tax purposes is not clear in certain respects
at this time, particularly where such Stripped Certificates are issued with
respect to a Mortgage Pool containing variable-rate Mortgage Loans, the
Depositor has been advised by counsel that (i) the Trust Fund will be treated
as a grantor trust under subpart E, Part 1 of subchapter J of the Code and
not as an association taxable as a corporation or a "taxable mortgage pool"
within the meaning of Code Section 7701(i), and (ii) each Stripped
Certificate should be treated as a single installment obligation for purposes
of calculating original issue discount and gain or loss on disposition. This
treatment is based on the interrelationship of Code Section 1286, Code
Sections 1272 through 1275, and the OID Regulations. While under Code Section
1286 computations with respect to Stripped Certificates arguably should be
made in one of the ways described below under "Taxation of Stripped
Certificates--Possible Alternative Characterizations," the OID Regulations
state, in general, that two or more debt instruments issued by a single
issuer to a single investor in a single transaction should be treated as a
single debt instrument for original issue discount purposes. The Pooling
Agreement requires that the Trustee make and report all computations
described below using this aggregate approach, unless substantial legal
authority requires otherwise.
Furthermore, Treasury regulations issued December 28, 1992 provide for the
treatment of a Stripped Certificate as a single debt instrument issued on the
date it is purchased for purposes of calculating any original issue discount.
In addition, under these regulations, a Stripped Certificate that represents
a right to payments of both interest and principal may be viewed either as
issued with original issue discount or market discount (as described below),
at a de minimis original issue discount, or, presumably, at a premium. This
treatment suggests that the interest component of such a Stripped Certificate
would be treated as qualified stated interest under the OID Regulations.
Further, these final regulations provide that the purchaser of such a
Stripped Certificate will be required to account for any discount as market
discount rather than original issue discount if either (i) the initial
discount with respect to the Stripped Certificate was treated as zero under
the de minimis rule, or (ii) no more than 100 basis points in excess of
reasonable servicing is stripped off the related Mortgage Loans. Any such
market discount would be reportable as described under "Certain Federal
Income Tax Consequences for REMIC Certificates-- Taxation of Regular
Certificates--Market Discount," without regard to the de minimis rule
therein, assuming that a prepayment assumption is employed in such
computation.
Status of Stripped Certificates
No specific legal authority exists as to whether the character of the
Stripped Certificates, for federal income tax purposes, will be the same as
that of the Mortgage Loans. Although the issue is not free from doubt,
counsel has advised the Depositor that Stripped Certificates owned by
applicable holders should be considered to represent "qualifying real
property loans" within the meaning of Code Section 593(d)(1), "real estate
assets" within the meaning of Code Section 856(c)(5)(A), "obligation[s]
principally secured by an interest in real property" within the meaning of
Code Section 860G(a)(3)(A), and "loans secured by an interest in real
property" within the meaning of Code Section 7701(a)(19)(C)(v), and interest
(including original issue discount) income attributable to Stripped
Certificates should be considered to represent "interest on obligations
secured by mortgages on real property" within the meaning of Code Section
856(c)(3)(B), provided that in each case the Mortgage Loans and interest on
such Mortgage Loans qualify for such treatment.
Taxation of Stripped Certificates
Original Issue Discount. Except as described above under "General", each
Stripped Certificate will be considered to have been issued at an original
issue discount for federal income tax purposes. Original issue discount with
respect to a Stripped Certificate must be included in ordinary income as it
accrues, in accordance with a constant interest method that takes into
account the compounding of interest, which may be prior to the receipt of the
cash attributable to such income. Based in part on the OID Regulations and
the amendments to the original issue discount sections of the Code made by
the 1986 Act, the amount of original issue discount required to be included
in the income of a holder of a Stripped Certificate (referred to in this
discussion as a "Stripped Certificateholder") in any taxable year likely will
be
93
<PAGE>
computed generally as described above under "Certain Federal Income Tax
Consequences for REMIC Certificates--Taxation of Regular
Certificates--Original Issue Discount" and "--Variable Rate Regular
Certificates". However, with the apparent exception of a Stripped Certificate
issued with de minimis original issue discount as described above under
"General", the issue price of a Stripped Certificate will be the purchase
price paid by each holder thereof, and the stated redemption price at
maturity will include the aggregate amount of the payments to be made on the
Stripped Certificate to such Stripped Certificateholder, presumably under the
Prepayment Assumption.
If the Mortgage Loans prepay at a rate either faster or slower than that
under the Prepayment Assumption, a Stripped Certificateholder's recognition
of original issue discount will be either accelerated or decelerated and the
amount of such original issue discount will be either increased or decreased
depending on the relative interests in principal and interest on each
Mortgage Loan represented by such Stripped Certificateholder's Stripped
Certificate. While the matter is not free from doubt, the holder of a
Stripped Certificate should be entitled in the year that it becomes certain
(assuming no further prepayments) that the holder will not recover a portion
of its adjusted basis in such Stripped Certificate to recognize an ordinary
loss equal to such portion of unrecoverable basis.
As an alternative to the method described above, the fact that some or all
of the interest payments with respect to the Stripped Certificates will not
be made if the Mortgage Loans are prepaid could lead to the interpretation
that such interest payments are "contingent" within the meaning of the OID
Regulations and the Proposed OID Regulations. The Proposed OID Regulations,
as they relate to the treatment of contingent interest, are by their terms
not applicable to prepayable securities such as the Stripped Certificates.
However, if future Treasury regulations dealing with contingent interest with
respect to the Stripped Certificates apply the same principles as the
Proposed OID Regulations, such regulations may lead to different timing of
income inclusion that would be the case under the OID Regulations.
Furthermore, application of such principles could lead to the
characterization of gain on the sale of contingent interest Stripped
Certificates as ordinary income. Investors should consult their tax advisors
regarding the appropriate tax treatment of Stripped Certificates.
Sale or Exchange of Stripped Certificates. Sale or exchange of a Stripped
Certificate prior to its maturity will result in gain or loss equal to the
difference, if any, between the amount received and the Stripped
Certificateholder's adjusted basis in such Stripped Certificate, as described
above under "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences for REMIC
Certificates--Taxation of Regular Certificates--Sale or Exchange of Regular
Certificates". To the extent that a subsequent purchaser's purchase price is
exceeded by the remaining payments on the Stripped Certificates, such
subsequent purchaser will be required for federal income tax purposes to
accrue and report such excess as if it were original issue discount in the
manner described above. It is not clear for this purpose whether the assumed
prepayment rate that is to be used in the case of a Stripped
Certificateholder other than an original Stripped Certificateholder should be
the Prepayment Assumption or a new rate based on the circumstances at the
date of subsequent purchase.
Purchase of More Than One Class of Stripped Certificates. Where an
investor purchases more than one class of Stripped Certificates, it is
currently unclear whether for federal income tax purposes such classes of
Stripped Certificates should be treated separately or aggregated for purposes
of the rules described above.
Possible Alternative Characterizations. The characterizations of the
Stripped Certificates discussed above are not the only possible
interpretations of the applicable Code provisions. For example, the Stripped
Certificateholder may be treated as the owner of (i) one installment
obligation consisting of such Stripped Certificate's pro rata share of the
payments attributable to principal on each Mortgage Loan and a second
installment obligation consisting of such Stripped Certificate's pro rata
share of the payments attributable to interest on each Mortgage Loan, (ii) as
many stripped bonds or stripped coupons as there are scheduled payments of
principal and/or interest on each Mortgage Loan or (iii) a separate
installment obligation for each Mortgage Loan, representing the Stripped
Certificate's pro rata share of payments of principal and/or interest to be
made with respect thereto. Alternatively, the holder of one or more classes
of Stripped Certificates may be treated as the owner of a pro rata fractional
undivided interest in each
94
<PAGE>
Mortgage Loan to the extent that such Stripped Certificate, or classes of
Stripped Certificates in the aggregate, represent the same pro rata portion
of principal and interest on each such Mortgage Loan, and a stripped bond or
stripped coupon (as the case may be), treated as an installment obligation or
contingent payment obligation, as to the remainder. Final regulations issued
on December 28, 1992 regarding original issue discount on stripped
obligations make the foregoing interpretations less likely to be applicable.
The preamble to those regulations states that they are premised on the
assumption that an aggregation approach is appropriate for determining
whether original issue discount on a stripped bond or stripped coupon is de
minimis, and solicits comments on appropriate rules for aggregating stripped
bonds and stripped coupons under Code Section 1286.
Because of these possible varying characterizations of Stripped
Certificates and the resultant differing treatment of income recognition,
Stripped Certificateholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors
regarding the proper treatment of Stripped Certificates for federal income
tax purposes.
REPORTING REQUIREMENTS AND BACKUP WITHHOLDING
The Trustee will furnish, within a reasonable time after the end of each
calendar year, to each Standard Certificateholder or Stripped
Certificateholder at any time during such year, such information (prepared on
the basis described above) as the Trustee deems to be necessary or desirable
to enable such Certificateholders to prepare their federal income tax
returns. Such information will include the amount of original issue discount
accrued on Certificates held by persons other than Certificateholders
exempted from the reporting requirements. The amounts required to be reported
by the Trustee may not be equal to the proper amount of original issue
discount required to be reported as taxable income by a Certificateholder,
other than an original Certificateholder that purchased at the issue price.
In particular, in the case of Stripped Certificates, unless provided
otherwise in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, such reporting will be
based upon a representative initial offering price of each class of Stripped
Certificates. The Trustee will also file such original issue discount
information with the Service. If a Certificateholder fails to supply an
accurate taxpayer identification number or if the Secretary of the Treasury
determines that a Certificateholder has not reported all interest and
dividend income required to be shown on his federal income tax return, 31%
backup withholding may be required in respect of any reportable payments, as
described above under "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences for REMIC
Certificates--Backup Withholding".
TAXATION OF CERTAIN FOREIGN INVESTORS
To the extent that a Certificate evidences ownership in Mortgage Loans
that are issued on or before July 18, 1984, interest or original issue
discount paid by the person required to withhold tax under Code Section 1441
or 1442 to nonresident aliens, foreign corporations, or other Non-U.S.
Persons generally will be subject to 30% United States withholding tax, or
such lower rate as may be provided for interest by an applicable tax treaty.
Accrued original issue discount recognized by the Standard Certificateholder
or Stripped Certificateholder on original issue discount recognized by the
Standard Certificateholder or Stripped Certificateholders on the sale or
exchange of such a Certificate also will be subject to federal income tax at
the same rate.
Treasury regulations provide that interest or original issue discount paid
by the Trustee or other withholding agent to a Non-U.S. Person evidencing
ownership interest in Mortgage Loans issued after July 18, 1984 will be
"portfolio interest" and will be treated in the manner, and such persons will
be subject to the same certification requirements, described above under
"Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences for REMIC Certificates--Taxation of
Certain Foreign Investors--Regular Certificates".
STATE AND OTHER TAX CONSIDERATIONS
In addition to the federal income tax consequences described in "Certain
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 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.
95
<PAGE>
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, collective investment funds,
insurance company and separate accounts and some insurance company general
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.
Special caution should be exercised before the assets of a Plan are used to
purchase a Certificate if, with respect to such assets, the Depositor, the
Master Servicer or the Trustee or an affiliate thereof, either: (a) has
investment discretion with respect to the investment of such assets of such
Plan; or (b) has authority or responsibility to give, or regularly gives
investment advice with respect to such assets for a fee and pursuant to an
agreement or understanding that such advice will serve as a primary basis for
investment decisions with respect to such assets and that such advice will be
based on the particular investment needs of the Plan.
Before purchasing any Offered Certificates, a Plan fiduciary should
consult with its counsel and determine whether there exists any prohibition
to such purchase under the requirements of ERISA, whether any prohibited
transaction class-exemption or any individual administrative prohibited
transaction exemption (as described below) applies, including whether the
appropriate conditions set forth therein would be met, or whether any
statutory prohibited transaction exemption is applicable, and further should
consult the applicable Prospectus Supplement relating to such Series of
Certificates.
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 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
96
<PAGE>
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.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXEMPTIONS
Several underwriters of mortgage-backed securities have applied for and
obtained individual administrative ERISA prohibited transaction exemptions
which can only apply to the purchase and holding of mortgage-backed
securities which, among other conditions, are sold in an offering with
respect to which such underwriter serves as the sole or a managing
underwriter, or as a selling or placement agent. If such an exemption might
be applicable to a Series of Certificates, the related Prospectus Supplement
will refer to such possibility, as well as provide a summary of the
conditions to the applicability.
UNRELATED BUSINESS TAXABLE INCOME; RESIDUAL CERTIFICATES
The purchase of a Residual Certificate by any employee benefit plan
qualified under Code Section 401(a) and exempt from taxation under Code
Section 501(a), including most varieties of ERISA Plans, may give rise to
"unrelated business taxable income" as described in Code Sections 511-515 and
860E. Further, prior to the purchase of Residual Certificates, a prospective
transferee may be required to provide an affidavit to a transferor that it is
not, nor is it purchasing a Residual Certificate on behalf of, a
"Disqualified Organization," which term as defined above includes certain
tax-exempt entities not subject to Code Section 511 including certain
governmental plans, as discussed above under the caption "Certain Federal
Income Tax Consequences--Federal Income Tax Consequences for REMIC
Certificates--Taxation of Residual Certificates--Tax-Related Restrictions on
Transfer of Residual Certificates--Disqualified Organizations."
Due to the complexity of these rules and the penalties imposed upon
persons involved in prohibited transactions, it is particularly important
that potential investors who are Plan fiduciaries consult with their counsel
regarding the consequences under ERISA of their acquisition and ownership of
Certificates.
The sale of Certificates to an employee benefit plan is in no respect a
representation by the Depositor or the Underwriter that this investment meets
all relevant legal requirements with respect to investments by plans
generally or by any particular plan, or that this investment is appropriate
for plans generally or for any particular plan.
LEGAL INVESTMENT
The Offered Certificates 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.
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. As "mortgage related
securities," such classes will 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 (including the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico)
whose authorized investments are subject to state regulation) to the same
extent that, under applicable law, obligations issued by or
97
<PAGE>
guaranteed as to principal and interest by the United States or any agency or
instrumentality thereof constitute legal investments for such entities. Under
SMMEA, a number of states enacted legislation on or prior to the October 3,
1991 cut-off for such enactments limiting the ability of certain entities (in
particular, insurance companies) to invest in "mortgage related securities,"
in most cases by requiring the affected investors to rely solely upon
existing state law, and not SMMEA. Accordingly, the investors affected by
such legislation will be authorized to invest in Offered Certificates
qualifying as "mortgage related securities" only to the extent provided in
such legislation.
SMMEA also amended the legal investment authority of federally-chartered
depository institutions as follows: federal savings and loan associations and
federal savings banks may invest in, sell or otherwise deal in "mortgage
related securities" without limitation as to the percentage of their assets
represented thereby, federal credit unions may invest in such securities, and
national banks may purchase such securities for their own account without
regard to the limitations generally applicable to investment securities set
forth in 12 U.S.C. Section 24 (Seventh), subject in each case to such
regulations as the applicable federal regulatory authority may prescribe. In
this connection, 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 the Offered Certificates), except under limited
circumstances.
All depository institutions considering an investment in the Offered
Certificates should review the "Supervisory Policy Statement on Securities
Activities" dated January 28, 1992, as revised April 15, 1994 (the "Policy
Statement") of the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council. The
Policy Statement, which has been adopted by the Federal Reserve Board, the
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the FDIC and the OTS, and by the
NCUA (with certain modifications), prohibits depository institutions from
investing in certain "high-risk mortgage securities" (including securities
such as certain classes of the Offered Certificates), except under limited
circumstances, and sets forth certain investment practices deemed to be
unsuitable for regulated institutions.
Institutions whose investment activities are subject to regulation by
federal or state authorities should review rules, policies and guidelines
adopted from time to time by such authorities before purchasing any class of
the Offered Certificates, as certain classes may be deemed unsuitable
investments, or may otherwise be restricted, under such rules, policies or
guidelines (in certain instances irrespective of SMMEA).
The foregoing does not take into consideration the applicability of
statutes, rules, regulations, orders, guidelines or agreements generally
governing investments made by a particular investor, including, but not
limited to, "prudent investor" provisions, percentage-of-assets limits,
provisions which may restrict or prohibit investment in securities which are
not "interest bearing" or "income paying," and, with regard to any class of
the Offered Certificates issued in book-entry form, provisions which may
restrict or prohibit investments in securities which are issued in book-entry
form.
Except as to the status of certain classes of Offered Certificates as
"mortgage related securities," no representations are made as to the proper
characterization of any class of Offered Certificates for legal investment
purposes, financial institution regulatory purposes, or other purposes, or as
to the ability of particular investors to purchase any class of Offered
Certificates under applicable legal investment restrictions. These
uncertainties (and any unfavorable future determinations concerning legal
investment or financial institution regulatory characteristics of the Offered
Certificates) may adversely affect the liquidity of any class of Offered
Certificates.
Accordingly, all investors whose investment activities are subject to
legal investment laws and regulations, regulatory capital requirements or
review by regulatory authorities should consult with their own legal advisors
in determining whether and to what extent the Offered Certificates of any
class constitute legal investments or are subject to investment, capital or
other restrictions.
98
<PAGE>
METHOD OF DISTRIBUTION
The Offered Certificates offered hereby and by Prospectus Supplements
hereto will be offered in series through one or more of the methods described
below. The Prospectus Supplement prepared for each series will describe the
method of offering being utilized for that series and will state the net
proceeds to the Depositor from such sale.
The Depositor intends that Offered Certificates will be offered through
the following methods from time to time and that offerings may be made
concurrently through more than one of these methods or that an offering of a
particular series of Certificates may be made through a combination of two or
more of these methods. Such methods are as follows:
1. by negotiated firm commitment underwriting and public offering by
one or more underwriters specified in the related Prospectus Supplement;
2. by placements through one or more placement agents specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement primarily with institutional investors and
dealers; and
3. through direct offerings by the Depositor.
If underwriters are used in a sale of any Offered Certificates (other than
in connection with an underwriting on a best efforts basis), such
Certificates will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and
may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including
negotiated transactions, at fixed public offering prices or at varying prices
to be determined at the time of sale or at the time of commitment therefor.
Such underwriters may be broker-dealers affiliated with the Depositor whose
identities and relationships to the Depositor will be as set forth in the
related Prospectus Supplement. The managing underwriter or underwriters with
respect to the offer and sale of a particular series of Certificates will be
set forth in the cover of the Prospectus Supplement relating to such series
and the members of the underwriting syndicate, if any, will be named in such
Prospectus Supplement.
In connection with the sale of the Offered Certificates, underwriters may
receive compensation from the Depositor or from purchasers of the Offered
Certificates in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions.
Underwriters and dealers participating in the distribution of the Offered
Certificates may be deemed to be underwriters in connection with such Offered
Certificates, and any discounts or commissions received by them from the
Depositor and any profit on the resale of Offered Certificates by them may be
deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").
It is anticipated that the underwriting agreement pertaining to the sale
of any series of Certificates will provide that the obligations of the
underwriters will be subject to certain conditions precedent, that the
underwriters will be obligated to purchase all Offered Certificates if any
are purchased (other than in connection with an underwriting on a best
efforts basis) and that the Depositor will indemnify the several
underwriters, and each person, if any, who controls any such underwriter
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against certain civil
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or will
contribute to payments required to be made in respect thereof.
The Prospectus Supplement with respect to any series offered by placements
through dealers will contain information regarding the nature of such
offering and any agreements to be entered into between the Depositor and
purchasers of Offered Certificates of such series.
The Depositor anticipates that the Offered Certificates offered hereby
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 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 unrated class may be initially retained by the Depositor, and may be sold
by the Depositor at any time to one or more institutional investors.
99
<PAGE>
If and to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, this
Prospectus will be used by Chase Securities Inc., an affiliate of the
Depositor, in connection with offers and sales related to market-making
transactions in the Offered Certificates previously offered hereunder in
transactions in which Chase Securities Inc. acts as principal. Chase
Securities Inc. may also act as agent in such transactions. Sales may be made
at negotiated prices determined at the time of sale.
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 by Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft, 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.
