aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of $490,000,000 to be known as
the Saxon Asset Securities Trust 2001-1, Mortgage Loan Asset Backed

AV-1, Class MV-1, Class MV-2, Class BV-1, Class A-IO, Class PF-1, Class PV-1,

In accordance with Section 10.01 of the Standard Terms, the Trustee will
make elections to treat each of the segregated pools of assets described below
as a real estate mortgage investment conduit (each a "REMIC" or, in the
alternative, the POOLING REMIC, the SECOND-TIER REMIC, and the ISSUING REMIC).
The Certificates, other than the Class R Certificates, represent ownership of
the regular interests in the ISSUING REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.
The Class R Certificates represents ownership of the sole class of residual
interest in each of the POOLING REMIC, the SECOND-TIER REMIC, and the ISSUING
REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The ISSUING REMIC shall hold as its
assets the several classes of uncertificated Lower Tier Interests in the
SECOND-TIER REMIC, other than the Class LT2-R Interest, and each such Lower Tier
Interest is hereby designated as a regular interest in the SECOND-TIER REMIC for
purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The SECOND-TIER REMIC shall hold as its assets
the several classes of uncertificated Lower Tier Interests in the POOLING REMIC,
other than the Class LT1-R Interest, and each such Lower Tier Interest is hereby
designated as a regular interest in the POOLING REMIC. The POOLING REMIC shall
hold as its assets the property of the Trust Estate other than the Lower Tier
Interests in the POOLING REMIC and the SECOND-TIER REMIC, the Prefunding Account
and the Capitalized Interest Account. The startup day for each REMIC created
hereby for purposes of the REMIC Provisions is the Closing Date. In addition,
for purposes of the REMIC Provisions, the latest possible maturity date for each
regular interest in each REMIC created hereby is the Distribution Date in March
2033.

funded such Advance. An Advancing Servicer is NOT entitled to be reimbursed by
the Trustee from the Asset Proceeds Account for any reimbursed Advances from
funds held in the Asset Proceeds Account for future distribution pursuant to
48
Section 3.04 of the Standard Terms. The Trustee is hereby authorized to pay
directly to the Advancing Servicer such portion of the Servicing Fee as the
parties to any advancing facility agree.
(c) All Advances made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be
deemed made and shall be reimbursed on a "first-in-first out" (FIFO) basis;
