Servicer, has undertaken certain financial obligations with respect to its
servicing of the Mortgage Loans, including, but not limited to, the making of

financial obligations of AMCUSA, the Sponsor or any Affiliated Originator under
either of the Agreements, whether or not specifically enumerated in this
paragraph, are hereinafter referred to as the "Joint and Several Obligations";
provided, however, that "Joint and Several Obligations" shall mean only the
financial obligations of AMCUSA, the Sponsor or any Affiliated Originator under
either of the Agreements (including the payment of money damages for a breach of
any of AMCUSA's, the Sponsor's or any Affiliated Originator's obligations under
either of the Agreements, whether financial or otherwise) but shall not include
any obligations not relating to the payment of money (e.g., the obligation to
service the Mortgage Loans).

The Certificate Insurer has required the undersigned, Advanta
Mortgage Holding Company ("AMHC"), the parent corporation of AMCUSA and the
indirect corporate parent of the Sponsor, to acknowledge its joint-and-several

Now, therefore, the Trust, the Certificate Insurer and AMHC do
hereby agree that:
(i) AMHC hereby agrees to be absolutely and
unconditionally jointly and severally liable with
AMCUSA, the Sponsor and the Affiliated Originators to
the Trust and the Certificate Insurer for the payment
of the Joint and Several Obligations.
(ii) AMHC may honor its obligations hereunder either by
