Section 1.03. Rules of Construction.
Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Trust Agreement or unless
the context otherwise clearly requires:
(a) References to designated articles, sections, subsections, exhibits,
and other subdivisions of this Trust Agreement, such as "Section 3.01(B),"
refer to the designated article, section, subsection, exhibit, or other
subdivision of this Trust Agreement as a whole and to all subdivisions of the
designated article, section, subsection, exhibit, or other subdivision. The
words "herein," "hereof," "hereto," "hereunder," and other words of similar
import refer to this Trust Agreement as a whole and not to any particular
article, section, exhibit, or other subdivision of this Trust Agreement.
(b) Any term that relates to a document or a statute, rule, or regulation
includes any amendments, modifications, supplements, or any other changes that
may have occurred since the document, statute, rule, or regulation came into
being, including changes that occur after the date of this Trust Agreement.
(c) Any party may execute any of the requirements under this Trust
Agreement either directly or through others, and the right to cause something
to be done rather than doing it
3
directly shall be implicit in every requirement under this Trust Agreement.
Unless a provision is restricted as to time or limited as to frequency, all
provisions under this Trust Agreement are implicitly available from time to
time.
(d) The term "including" and all its variations mean "including but not
limited to." Except when used in conjunction with the word "either," the word
"or" is always used inclusively (for example, the phrase "A or B" means "A or
B or both," not "either A or B but not both").
(e) A reference to "a thing" or "any of a thing" does not imply the
existence or occurrence of the thing referred to even though not followed by
"if any," and "any of a thing" is any and all of it. A reference to the plural
of anything as to which there could be either one or more than one does not
imply the existence of more than one (for instance, the phrase "the obligors
on a note" means "the obligor or obligors on a note"). "Until something
occurs" does not imply that it must occur, and will not be modified by the
word "unless." The word "due" and the word "payable" are each used in the
sense that the stated time for payment has past. The word "accrued" is used in
its accounting sense, i.e., an amount paid is no longer accrued. In the
calculation of amounts of things, differences and sums may generally result in
negative numbers, but when the calculation of the excess of one thing over
another results in zero or a negative number, the calculation is disregarded
and an "excess" does not exist. Portions of things may be expressed as
fractions or percentages interchangeably.
(f) All accounting terms used in an accounting context and not otherwise
defined, and accounting terms partly defined in this Trust Agreement, to the
extent not completely defined, shall be construed in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States. To the extent that the
definitions of accounting terms in this Trust Agreement are inconsistent with
their meanings under generally accepted accounting principles, the definitions
contained in this Trust Agreement shall control. Capitalized terms used in
this Trust Agreement without definition that are defined in the Uniform
Commercial Code are used in this Trust Agreement as defined in the Uniform
Commercial Code.
(g) In the computation of a period of time from a specified date to a
later specified date or an open-ended period, the word "from" or "beginning"
means "from and including," the word "after" means "from but excluding," the
words "to" or "until" mean "to but excluding," and the word "through" means
"to and including." Likewise, in setting deadlines or other periods, "by"
means "on or before." The words "preceding," "following," and words of similar
import, mean immediately preceding or following. References to a month or a
year refer to calendar months and calendar years.
(h) Any reference to the enforceability of any agreement against a party
means that it is enforceable, subject as to enforcement against the party, to
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, and other similar laws of
general applicability relating to or affecting creditors' rights and to
general equity principles.

ARTICLE III
THE TRANSFEROR CERTIFICATES
Section 3.01. Initial Beneficiary of Trust.
Upon the formation of the Trust by the contribution by the Depositor
pursuant to Section 2.05 and until the issuance of the Transferor
Certificates, the Depositor shall be the sole beneficiary of the Trust.
Section 3.02. Issuance of the Transferor Certificates.
(a) On the Closing Date, the Trust will issue one class of Certificates
designated as the "Revolving Home Equity Loan Asset Backed Transferor
Certificates, Series 2004-D" (the "Transferor Certificates") pursuant to the
provisions of this Trust Agreement and deliver them to the order of the
Depositor when authenticated.
(b) The Transferor Certificates will be issued in definitive, fully
registered form and will be substantially in the form of Exhibit B. The
Transferor Certificates will, on the Closing Date, be executed, authenticated,
and delivered by the Owner Trustee to the order of the Depositor concurrently
with the transfer of the Mortgage Loans to the Trust.
(c) The Transferor Certificates will be executed by manual or facsimile
signature on behalf of the Owner Trustee by an authorized officer. Transferor
Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who
were, at the time their signatures were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf
of the Owner Trustee shall bind the Trust, notwithstanding that any of them
have ceased to be so authorized before the authentication and delivery of the
Transferor Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of the
Transferor Certificate. The Transferor Certificates will not be book-entry
certificates.
Section 3.03. Authentication of Transferor Certificates.
No Transferor Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this
Trust Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless the Transferor
Certificate is manually authenticated by the Owner Trustee substantially in
the form provided in this Agreement, and the authentication on any Transferor
Certificate will be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that the
Transferor Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered. All
Transferor Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.
The Trust initially appoints the Indenture Trustee to act as the
authentication agent of the Owner Trustee. All references to the
authentication of the Transferor Certificates shall be considered to include
the authentication agent.
8
Section 3.04. Registration of and Transfer and Exchange of Transferor
Certificates.
The Trust shall keep a Transferor certificate register (the "Certificate
Register") in which, subject to any reasonable regulations it may prescribe,
the Trust shall provide for the registration of the Transferor Certificates
and, to the extent permitted by this Trust Agreement, of transfers and
exchanges of the Transferor Certificates. The certificate registrar (the
"Certificate Registrar") is initially the Indenture Trustee.
Whenever any Transferor Certificate is surrendered for registration of
transfer at the office or agency of the Certificate Registrar maintained for
that purpose and the conditions of this Section have been satisfied, the Owner
Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall execute, authenticate, and deliver in
the name of the designated transferees, one or more new Transferor
Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate amount dated the
date of authentication by the Owner Trustee or any authenticating agent.
At the option of its Holder, each Transferor Certificate may be exchanged
for other Transferor Certificates, in authorized denominations of a like
aggregate amount, by surrendering the Transferor Certificate to be exchanged
at the office or agency of the Certificate Registrar maintained for that
purpose.
Every Transferor Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of
transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a fully completed representation
letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit C, delivered at the expense of
the Certificateholder, and duly executed by the Certificateholder or an
attorney-in-fact for the Certificateholder duly authorized in writing. Each
Holder of a Transferor Certificate must satisfy the transfer restrictions in
the representation letter. Each Transferor Certificate surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled and subsequently
disposed of by the Owner Trustee in accordance with its customary practice.
No service charge shall be made for the registration of transfer or
exchange of any Transferor Certificate, but the Owner Trustee or the
Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax
or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or
exchange of the Transferor Certificate.
The preceding provisions of this Section notwithstanding, the Owner
Trustee need not transfer or exchange, and the Certificate Registrar need not
register transfers or exchanges, of Transferor Certificates during the fifteen
days preceding the due date for any payment on the Transferor Certificates.
The Certificate Registrar shall at all times maintain an office or agency
where Transferor Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer
or exchange.
9
Section 3.05. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost, or Stolen Transferor
Certificate.
If (a) the Owner Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the
destruction, loss, or theft of a Transferor Certificate and the Owner Trustee
receives the security or indemnity it requires to hold it harmless or (b) any
mutilated Transferor Certificate is surrendered to the Owner Trustee, then in
the absence of notice that the Transferor Certificate has been acquired by a
Protected Purchaser, the Owner Trustee shall execute, authenticate, and
deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of the mutilated, destroyed, lost, or
stolen Transferor Certificate, a new Transferor Certificate of like tenor and
denomination. The Owner Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed on the issuance
of the new Transferor Certificate under this Section. Any duplicate Transferor
Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive
evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not
the lost, stolen, or destroyed Transferor Certificate is found.
Section 3.06. Maintenance of Office or Agency.
The Trust shall maintain an office or agency where notices and demands on
the Trust regarding the Transferor Certificates and the Transaction Documents
may be served. The Trust initially designates Indenture Trustee as its office
for those purposes. The Owner Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the
Certificateholders of the location, and any change in the location, of this
office or agency. If the Trust ever fails to maintain this office or agency,
then presentations, surrenders, notices, and demands may be made or served at
the Corporate Trust Office of the Owner Trustee.
Section 3.07. Persons Considered Certificateholders.
Before due presentation of a Transferor Certificate for registration of
transfer, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, and any paying agent
for the Transferor Certificates shall treat the person in whose name any
Transferor Certificate is registered in the Certificate Register as the owner
of the Transferor Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions
pursuant to Section 5.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of
the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, and any paying agent for the
Transferor Certificates shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.
Section 3.08. Access to List of Certificateholders' Names and
Addresses.
The Certificate Registrar shall furnish to the Depositor or the Owner
Trustee a list of the names and addresses of the Transferor Certificateholders
as of the most recent Record Date within fifteen days after receipt by the
Certificate Registrar of a written request for it from the Depositor or the
Owner Trustee.
Section 3.09. Appointment of Certificate Paying Agent.
The paying agent for the Transferor Certificates shall make distributions
to the holder of each Transferor Certificate pursuant to this Trust Agreement
and shall report the amounts of those distributions to the Owner Trustee. The
Administrator, on behalf of the Trust, may remove the Certificate Paying Agent
if the Administrator determines in its sole discretion that the Certificate
Paying Agent has failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any
10
material respect. The Certificate Paying Agent initially shall be the
Indenture Trustee. The Certificate Paying Agent shall be permitted to resign
as Certificate Paying Agent on thirty days' written notice to the Owner
Trustee. If the Indenture Trustee is no longer the Certificate Paying Agent,
the Administrator shall appoint a bank or trust company as successor to act as
Certificate Paying Agent. The Administrator shall cause the successor
Certificate Paying Agent or any additional Certificate Paying Agent appointed
by the Administrator to execute and deliver to the Trust an instrument in
which the successor Certificate Paying Agent or additional Certificate Paying
Agent agrees with the Trust that, as Certificate Paying Agent, the successor
Certificate Paying Agent or additional Certificate Paying Agent will hold any
sums held by it for payment to the Certificateholders in trust for the benefit
of the Certificateholders entitled to them until those sums are paid to the
appropriate Certificateholders. The Certificate Paying Agent shall return all
unclaimed funds to the Trust, and upon removal of a Certificate Paying Agent,
the Certificate Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to
the Trust. Any reference in this Trust Agreement to the Certificate Paying
Agent shall include any co-Certificate Paying Agent unless the context
requires otherwise.
Section 3.10. Restrictions on Transfer; Legends.
(a) The Transferor Certificates shall be assigned, transferred,
exchanged, pledged, financed, hypothecated, or otherwise conveyed
(collectively, for purposes of this Section and any other Section referring to
the Transferor Certificates, "transferred" or a "transfer") only in accordance
with this Section.
(b) No transfer of a Transferor Certificate will be made unless the
transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of
1933 (the "Act") and any applicable state securities laws or is made in
accordance with the Act and those laws. Except for the initial issuance of a
Transferor Certificate to the Transferor (and any subsequent transfer by that
Transferor to one of its Affiliates), the Owner Trustee will require either:
(i) the transferee to execute an investment letter acceptable to and
in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Trustee certifying to the
Owner Trustee the facts surrounding the transfer, which investment letter
shall not be an expense of the Owner Trustee or
(ii) an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance
satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Depositor that the transfer may
be made pursuant to an exemption from the Act, describing the applicable
exemption and its basis, or is being made pursuant to the Act, which
Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Owner Trustee or the
Depositor.
The holder of a Transferor Certificate desiring to effect a transfer
shall indemnify the Trust against any liability that may result if the
transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with any federal and
state laws.
11
(c) No transfer of an interest in a Transferor Certificate will be made
unless the Owner Trustee has received either:
(i) a representation letter from the proposed Transferor, acceptable
to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Trustee, to the

in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of

except that, in the case of the initial issuance of a Transferor Certificate
to the Transferor (and any subsequent transfer by the Transferor to one of its

(D) the transfer will not result in the Trust being
characterized as a taxable mortgage pool as defined in Section

has been satisfied taking that into account.
(e) Each Transferor Certificate shall bear a legend substantially in the
following form:
This certificate has not been and will not be registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws of any state and may not be
resold or transferred unless it is registered pursuant to the Securities Act
of 1933 and the securities laws of any state or is sold or transferred in
transactions that are exempt from registration under the Securities Act of
1933 and under applicable state law and is transferred in accordance with
Section 3.10 of the Trust Agreement related to CWABS Revolving Home Equity
Loan Trust, Series 2004-D. Neither this certificate nor any interest in it may
be transferred unless the transferee delivers to the trustee either a
representation letter to the effect that the transferee is not an employee
benefit plan subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974,
as amended, a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code, as amended, or a
person acting on behalf of or using the assets of any such plan; or an opinion
of counsel in accordance with Section 3.10(c) of the Trust Agreement related
to CWABS Revolving Home Equity Loan Trust, Series 2004-D. Notwithstanding
anything else to the contrary herein, any purported transfer of this
certificate to or on behalf of an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA or to
the Code without the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the trustee as
described above shall be void.
(f) No Transferor Certificate shall be transferred except to (i) the
Master Servicer, the Transferor, the Depositor, or the Trust (or an affiliate
of any of them) or (ii) a qualified institutional buyer (as defined in Rule
144A under the Securities Act). Each person (other than the Master Servicer,
the Transferor, or the Trust (or an affiliate of them)) to whom a Transferor
Certificate is proposed to be transferred will be required to certify to the
Transferor, the Trust, and the Certificate Registrar that it is a qualified
institutional buyer.
(g) Notwithstanding anything in this Trust Agreement to the contrary, the
Depositor, without the consent of any Noteholder or Certificateholder, may
amend this Section 3.10 with the consent of the Credit Enhancer if it receives
an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the amendment will not adversely
affect in any material respect
13
(i) the tax characterization of the outstanding Notes and Transferor
Certificates for federal or applicable state income tax purposes,
(ii) the characterization of the Trust as an entity that is not a
publicly traded partnership or other business entity taxable as a
corporation for United States federal income tax purposes and will not
result in a United States federal withholding tax being imposed on the
Trust, or
(iii) the Trust's exemptions from any registration requirement of
the federal securities laws.

Registrar, Administrator, or Indenture Trustee under the Indenture, or
consent to the assignment by the Transfer Agent and Registrar,

Indenture.
If the Trust has more than one holder of its Transferor Certificates,
then the Holders may only give instructions that are agreed to by the majority
of the Holders (based on the holders' percentage ownership of the entire
Transferor Certificate Interest).
(b) Notwithstanding Section 4.01(a), without prior notice to the
Certificateholders the Owner Trustee may, on behalf of the Trust:
14
(i) initiate a claim or lawsuit by the Trust for collection of
Assets;
(ii) file an amendment to the Certificate of Trust whenever the
amendment is required by the Statutory Trust Statute; or
(iii) amend the Administration Agreement to cure any ambiguity or
mistake or effect any other amendment that would not materially adversely
affect the interests of the Certificateholders.
The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.01 do not create a duty on the
part of the Owner Trustee to take any of the actions described above.
Section 4.02. Action by Certificateholders Regarding Certain Matters.
Except when directed by the Certificateholders and with the prior written
consent of the Credit Enhancer in the case of (a), (b), or (c) below, the
Owner Trustee may not (a) remove the Administrator pursuant to Section 7(c) of
the Administration Agreement, (b) appoint a successor Administrator pursuant

given.
Section 4.05. Majority Interest.
Except as expressly provided in this Trust Agreement, any action that may
be taken by the Certificateholders under this Trust Agreement shall be taken

distribute to the Transferor Certificateholders pro rata (based on each

Section 8.03 of the Indenture. Distributions to each Transferor
Certificateholder shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to the Transferor Certificateholder's account at a bank or other entity
having appropriate facilities. If appropriate notice of wiring instructions is
not given by any Transferor Certificateholder, then distribution to that
Transferor Certificateholder shall be by check mailed to the Transferor
Certificateholder at its address as it appears on the Certificate Register.
(b) If any withholding tax is imposed on the Trust's payment (or
allocations of income) to the Certificateholders, the withholding tax shall
reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Certificateholders in
accordance with this Section. The Certificate Paying Agent is authorized and
directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the
Certificateholders sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally
owed by the Trust. This authorization shall not prevent the Certificate Paying
Agent from contesting any tax in appropriate proceedings and withholding
payment of the tax pending the outcome of the proceedings if permitted by law.
The amount of any withholding tax imposed on any distributions shall be
treated as cash distributed to the Certificateholder at the time it is
withheld by the Trust and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If
withholding tax might be payable on a distribution to a non-U.S.
Certificateholder, the Certificate Paying Agent may in its sole discretion
withhold an appropriate amount to cover that possibility.
Section 5.02. Method of Payment.
Distributions required to be made to a Certificateholder on any Payment
Date shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
account of the Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate
facilities if the Certificateholder so notifies the Certificate Registrar in

notice is not given by a Certificateholder, then distributions to that
Certificateholder shall be by check mailed to it at its address in the
Certificate Register.

predecessor Owner Trustee shall become effective. The successor Owner Trustee
shall become fully vested with all the rights and obligations of its
predecessor under this Trust Agreement, with like effect as if originally
named as Owner Trustee without any further act, deed, or conveyance. The
predecessor Owner Trustee shall promptly deliver to the successor Owner
Trustee all documents, statements, and monies held by it under this Agreement.
The Administrator and the predecessor Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver
any instruments and do anything else for fully and certainly vesting and
confirming in the successor Owner Trustee all rights and obligations under
this Agreement.
24
When a successor Owner Trustee accepts its appointment pursuant to this
Section, the Administrator shall mail notice of the change in trustee to the
Certificateholders, the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the
Credit Enhancer, and the Rating Agencies. If the Administrator fails to mail
that notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor
Owner Trustee, the successor Owner Trustee shall mail that notice at the
expense of the Administrator.
The successor Owner Trustee shall file an amendment to the Certificate of
Trust with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware identifying the
name and principal place of business in the State of Delaware of the successor
Owner Trustee.
Section 10.03. Merger or Consolidation of Owner Trustee.
Any person into which the Owner Trustee may be merged or converted or
with which it may be consolidated, or any person resulting from any merger,
conversion, or consolidation to which the Owner Trustee is a party, or any
person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business
of the Owner Trustee, shall be the successor of the Owner Trustee under this
Trust Agreement without the execution or filing of any instrument or any
further act on the part of any of the parties to this Trust Agreement,
anything to the contrary notwithstanding. The Owner Trustee shall mail notice
of the merger or consolidation or other action to each Rating Agency and the
Credit Enhancer.
Section 10.04. Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for
the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any
part of the Assets may at any time be located, the Administrator and the Owner
Trustee acting jointly shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint
persons approved by the Administrator, and Owner Trustee to act as co-trustee,
jointly with the Owner Trustee, or as separate trustee, of all or any part of
the Assets, and to vest in that person, in that capacity, such title to the
Assets or any part thereof and, subject to the other provisions of this
Section, such rights and obligations as the Administrator and the Owner
Trustee consider appropriate. If the Administrator has not joined in the
appointment within fifteen days after the receipt by it of a request so to do,
the Owner Trustee alone may make the appointment. No notice of the appointment
of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section
10.02.
Each separate trustee and co-trustee shall be appointed and act subject
to the following provisions and conditions:
(a) All rights and obligations conferred or imposed on the Owner Trustee
shall be conferred on and exercised or performed by the Owner Trustee and the
separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (the separate trustee or co-trustee is
not authorized to act separately without the Owner Trustee joining in the
act), except to the extent that under applicable law the Owner Trustee is
incompetent or unqualified to perform the acts, in which case those rights and
obligations (including the holding of title to the Assets or any portion of
them in that
25
jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by the separate trustee
or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Owner Trustee;
(b) No trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable for any
act or omission of any other trustee under this Agreement; and
(c) The Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly may at any
time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.
Any notice, request, or other writing given to the Owner Trustee shall be
considered to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and
co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument
appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to the conditions of
this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the
trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in
its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or
separately, as may be provided in the instrument of appointment. Each
instrument of appointment shall be filed with the Owner Trustee and a copy of
it given to the Administrator.
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Owner
Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the
extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act with respect to this
Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee
shall die, become incapable of acting, resign, or be removed, all of its
estates, properties, rights, and obligations shall vest in and be exercised by
the Owner Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of
a new or successor co-trustee or separate trustee.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights, and limitations
of rights and obligations evidenced by this Certificate, and the rights and
obligations of the Owner Trustee.
The Agreement may be amended in any way by the Depositor and the Owner

Re: CWABS Revolving Home Equity Loan Trust, Series

Securities, Series 2004-D Transferor Certificates
-------------------------------------------------
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter is delivered to you in connection with the sale by
_____________ (the "Transferor") to ______________________ (the "Transferee")
of the Certificates representing a ____% Percentage Interest (the "Transferred
Certificates"). All capitalized terms used in this certificate without
definition have the meanings given to them in the Trust Agreement, dated as of
June 29, 2004, between CWABS, Inc., as depositor, and Wilmington Trust
Company, as owner trustee. The Transferor hereby certifies, represents, and
warrants to you that:
1. The Transferor is the lawful owner of the Transferred Certificates
with the full right to transfer them free from any claims and encumbrances
whatsoever.
2. Neither the Transferor nor anyone acting on its behalf has (a)
offered, transferred, pledged, sold, or otherwise disposed of any Certificate,
any interest in any Certificate, or any other similar security to any person
in any manner, (b) solicited any offer to buy or accept a transfer, pledge, or
other disposition of any Certificate, any interest in any Certificate, or any
other similar security from any person in any manner, (c) otherwise approached
or negotiated with respect to any Certificate, any interest in any Certificate
or any other similar security with any person in any manner, (d) made any
general solicitation by
B-1
general advertising or in any other manner, or (e) taken any other action that
(in the case of any of the acts described in clauses (a) through (e) of this
paragraph) would constitute a distribution of any Certificate under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or would render the
disposition of any Certificate a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act
or any state securities laws, or would require registration or qualification
of any Certificate pursuant to the Securities Act or any state securities
laws.
3. The Transferor and any person acting on behalf of the Transferor in
this matter reasonably believe that the Transferee is a "qualified
institutional buyer" as that term is defined in Rule 144A ("Rule 144A") under
the Securities Act (a "Qualified Institutional Buyer") purchasing for its own
account or for the account of a Qualified Institutional Buyer. In determining
whether the Transferee is a Qualified Institutional Buyer, the Transferor and
any person acting on behalf of the Transferor in this matter have relied on
the following to establish the Transferee's ownership and discretionary
investments of securities (check one or more):
\\ The Transferee's most recent publicly available financial
statements, which statements present the information as of a date
within 16 months preceding the date of sale of the Transferred
Certificate in the case of a U.S. purchaser and within 18 months
preceding such date of sale for a foreign purchaser; or
\\ The most recent publicly available information appearing in
documents filed by the Transferee with the Securities and Exchange
Commission or another United States federal, state, or local
governmental agency or self-regulatory organization, or with a
foreign governmental agency or self-regulatory organization, which
information is as of a date within 16 months preceding the date of
sale of the Transferred Certificate in the case of a U.S. purchaser
and within 18 months preceding such date of sale for a foreign
purchaser; or
\\ The most recent publicly available information appearing in a
recognized securities manual, which information is as of a date
within 16 months preceding the date of sale of the Transferred
Certificate in the case of a U.S. purchaser and within 18 months
preceding such date of sale for a foreign purchaser; or
\\ A certification by the chief financial officer, a person fulfilling
an equivalent function, or other executive officer of the
Transferee, specifying the amount of securities owned and invested
on a discretionary basis by the Transferee as of a specific date on
or since the close of the Transferee's most recent fiscal year, or,
in the case of a Transferee that is a member of a "family of
investment companies," as that term is defined in Rule 144A, a
certification by an executive officer of the investment adviser
specifying the amount of securities owned by the "family of
investment companies" as of a specific date on or since the close of
the Transferee's most recent fiscal year.
B-2
4. The Transferor and any person acting on behalf of the Transferor
understand that in determining the aggregate amount of securities owned and
invested on a discretionary basis by an entity for purposes of establishing
whether such entity is a Qualified Institutional Buyer:
o the following instruments and interests shall be excluded: securities of
issuers that are affiliated with the Transferee; securities that are part
of an unsold allotment to or subscription by the Transferee, if the
Transferee is a dealer; securities of issuers that are part of the
Transferee's "family of investment companies," if the Transferee is a
registered investment company; bank deposit notes and certificates of
deposit; loan participations; repurchase agreements; securities owned but
subject to a repurchase agreement; and currency, interest rate, and
commodity swaps;
o the aggregate value of the securities shall be the cost of such
securities, except where the entity reports its securities holdings in
its financial statements on the basis of their market value, and no
current information with respect to the cost of those securities has been
published, in which case the securities may be valued at market;
o securities owned by subsidiaries of the entity that are consolidated with
the entity in its financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles may be included if the
investments of such subsidiaries are managed under the direction of the
entity, except that, unless the entity is a reporting company under
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
securities owned by such subsidiaries may not be included if the entity
itself is a majority-owned subsidiary that would be included in the
consolidated financial statements of another enterprise.
5. The Transferor or a person acting on its behalf has taken reasonable
steps to ensure that the Transferee is aware that the Transferor is relying on
the exemption from the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act provided
by Rule 144A.
6. The Transferor or a person acting on its behalf has furnished, or
caused to be furnished, to the Transferee all information regarding (a) the
Transferred Certificates and payments on them, (b) the nature and performance
of the Mortgage Loans, and (c) the Indenture, the Agreement, and the Trust
Estate, that the Transferee has requested.
