Certificates, RFC wishes to make certain representations and warranties to the Company.
F. The Company and RFC intend that the conveyance by RFC to the Company of all its

other good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:
1. All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned
thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Financial Services Corporation, and the Additional Collateral Agreement between GMAC Mortgage
Corporation and the Customer (collectively, the "Assigned Contracts"), (ii) all rights, powers and
remedies of RFC as owner of such Pledged Asset Loan under or in connection with the Assigned Contracts,
whether arising under the terms of such Assigned Contracts, by statute, at law or in equity, or
otherwise arising out of any default by the Mortgagor under or in connection with the Assigned
Contracts, including all rights to exercise any election or option or to make any decision or
determination or to give or receive any notice, consent, approval or waiver thereunder, (iii) the

foregoing (including all computer programs, tapes, disks and related items containing any such
information) and (v) all insurance proceeds (including proceeds from the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation or any other insurance company) of any of
the foregoing or replacements thereof or substitutions therefor, proceeds of proceeds and the
conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of any thereof. The foregoing transfer, sale, assignment and
conveyance does not constitute and is not intended to result in the creation, or an assumption by the
Company, of any obligation of RFC, or any other Person in connection with the Pledged Assets or under
any agreement or instrument relating thereto, including any obligation to the Mortgagor, other than as
owner of the Pledged Asset Loan.
The Company and RFC intend that the conveyance by RFC to the Company of all its right, title
and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 2 shall be, and be construed as, a
sale of the Mortgage Loans by RFC to the Company. It is, further, not intended that such conveyance be
deemed to be a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by RFC to the Company to secure a debt or other obligation
of RFC. Nonetheless, (a) this Agreement is intended to be and hereby is a security agreement within the
meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the Minnesota Uniform Commercial Code and the Uniform Commercial Code of
any other applicable jurisdiction; (b) the conveyance provided for in this Section shall be deemed to
be, and hereby is, a grant by RFC to the Company of a security interest in all of RFC's right, title and
interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to any and all general intangibles, payment
intangibles, accounts, chattel paper, instruments, documents, money, deposit accounts, certificates of
deposit, goods, letters of credit, advices of credit and investment property consisting of, arising from
or relating to any of the following: (A) the Mortgage Loans, including (i) with respect to each
Cooperative Loan, the related Mortgage Note, Security Agreement, Assignment of Proprietary Lease,
Cooperative Stock Certificate, Cooperative Lease, any insurance policies and all other documents in the
related Mortgage File, (ii) with respect to each Mortgage Loan other than a Cooperative Loan, the
related Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, any insurance policies and all other documents in the related
Mortgage File, (B) all monies due or to become due pursuant to the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the
terms thereof and (C) all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into
cash, instruments, securities or other property, including without limitation all amounts from time to
time held or invested in the Certificate Account or the Custodial Account, whether in the form of cash,
instruments, securities or other property; (c) the possession by the Trustee, the Custodian or any other
agent of the Trustee of Mortgage Notes or such other items of property as constitute instruments, money,
payment intangibles, negotiable documents, goods, deposit accounts, letters of credit, advices of
credit, investment property or chattel paper shall be deemed to be "possession by the secured party," or
possession by a purchaser or a person designated by such secured party, for purposes of perfecting the
security interest pursuant to the Minnesota Uniform Commercial Code and the Uniform Commercial Code of
any other applicable jurisdiction (including, without limitation, Sections 8-106, 9-313 and 9-106
thereof); and (d) notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or
confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments,
receipts or confirmations from, securities intermediaries, bailees or agents of, or persons holding for,
(as applicable) the Trustee for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law.
RFC shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such reasonable actions as may be
necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were determined to create a security interest in the
Mortgage Loans and the other property described above, such security interest would be determined to be
a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such
throughout the term of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, RFC shall
prepare and deliver to the Company not less than 15 days prior to any filing date, and the Company shall
file, or shall cause to be filed, at the expense of RFC, all filings necessary to maintain the
effectiveness of any original filings necessary under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any
jurisdiction to perfect the Company's security interest in or lien on the Mortgage Loans, including
without limitation (x) continuation statements, and (y) such other statements as may be occasioned by
(1) any change of name of RFC or the Company, (2) any change of location of the state of formation, place
of business or the chief executive office of RFC, or (3) any transfer of any interest of RFC in any
Mortgage Loan.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Master Servicer shall retain all servicing
rights (including, without limitation, primary servicing and master servicing) relating to or arising
out of the Mortgage Loans, and all rights to receive servicing fees, servicing income and other payments
made as compensation for such servicing granted to it under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement pursuant
to the terms and conditions set forth therein (collectively, the "Servicing Rights") and (ii) the
Servicing Rights are not included in the collateral in which RFC grants a security interest pursuant to
the immediately preceding paragraph.
3. Concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, the Company hereby assigns to
RFC without recourse all of its right, title and interest in and to a de minimis portion of the Class
R-I, Class R-II, Class R-III, Class R-IV and Class R-X Certificates as part of the consideration payable
to RFC by the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

Upon discovery by RFC or upon notice from the Company or the Trustee of a breach of the
foregoing representations and warranties in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially and adversely

the occurrence of a Repurchase Event (hereinafter defined), notice of which breach or occurrence shall

respects or, either (i) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee or the Company, as the case may be,
at a price equal to the Purchase Price for such Mortgage Loan or (ii) substitute a Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan or Loans for such Mortgage Loan in the manner and subject to the limitations set forth in
Section 2.04 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. If the breach of representation and warranty that
gave rise to the obligation to repurchase or substitute a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 4 was
the representation and warranty set forth in clause (k) of this Section 4, then RFC shall pay to the
Trust Fund, concurrently with and in addition to the remedies provided in the preceding sentence, an
amount equal to any liability, penalty or expense that was actually incurred and paid out of or on

Trust Fund thereafter, concurrently with such payment.
5. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, a first lien repurchase event ("Repurchase

not a valid first lien on the related Mortgaged Property subject only to (i) the lien of real property
taxes and assessments not yet due and payable, (ii) covenants, conditions, and restrictions, rights of
way, easements and other matters of public record as of the date of recording of such Mortgage and such
permissible title exceptions as are listed in the Program Guide and (iii) other matters to which like

marketability of the Mortgaged Property. In addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the
Company delivers to the Trustee or the Custodian an affidavit certifying that the original Mortgage Note
has been lost or destroyed, if such Mortgage Loan subsequently is in default and the enforcement thereof
or of the related Mortgage is materially adversely affected by the absence of the original Mortgage
Note, a Repurchase Event shall be deemed to have occurred and RFC will be obligated to repurchase or
substitute for such Mortgage Loan in the manner set forth in Section 4 above.
6. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties
hereto and their respective successors and assigns, and no other person shall have any right or
obligation hereunder.

XXXXXXXX X - STANDARD & POOR'S PREDATORY LENDING CATEGORIES
Standard & Poor's has categorized loans governed by anti-predatory lending laws in the
Jurisdictions listed below into three categories based upon a combination of factors that include (a)
the risk exposure associated with the assignee liability and (b) the tests and thresholds set forth in
those laws. Note that certain loans classified by the relevant statute as Covered are included in
Standard & Poor's High Cost Loan Category because they included thresholds and tests that are typical of
what is generally considered High Cost by the industry.
