WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend the terms of the Trust
Agreement as provided in this Amendment to Trust Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, and the
Trustee hereby agree to amend the terms of the Trust Agreement as
follows:
AGREEMENT
1. As it applies to the Securities issued pursuant to the
Trust Agreement, Section 9.01 of the Standard Terms, as modified by the
Trust Agreement, is further amended by adding the following new
paragraph after the fifth paragraph in Section 9.01:
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Standard
Terms to the contrary, the Master Servicer may, in
connection with its election to make a Terminating
Purchase, make the following additional election. If
the certificates in physical form evidencing the
Securities are surrendered to the Trustee (duly
endorsed for transfer) no later than the second
Business Day (the "Purchase Election Date") prior to
the Distribution Date on which the Terminating
Purchase is to be made (the "Purchase Date"), the
Master Servicer may elect to purchase all of the
outstanding Securities (in lieu of purchasing the
Mortgage Loans) and to treat the
-28-
Securities so purchased as remaining outstanding and
having been purchased by the Master Servicer or its
designee. In either event, the purchase price to be
deposited in the Asset Proceeds Account by the Master
Servicer or its designee shall be the Termination
Price, as specified in this Section 9.01, and the
Holders of the outstanding Securities shall be
entitled to receive the distribution set forth in this
Section 9.01. Any such further election to purchase
the Securities and to treat such Securities as
outstanding shall be made by the Master Servicer by
written notice of such further election delivered to
the Trustee no later than the Purchase Election Date.
During the period after which the Trustee has given
notice of the Terminating Purchase to the
Securityholders and the Purchase Election Date, the
Trustee shall cooperate with the Master Servicer to
obtain surrender of the certificates in physical form
evidencing the outstanding Securities, together with
such certificates or documents as may be required to
be delivered by the transferor of a Security pursuant
to Section 5.03 of the Standard Terms. On the
Purchase Date, if the Master Servicer has elected to
purchase the outstanding Securities and upon receipt
by the Trustee of such certificates, agreements and/or
opinions as may be required by any transferor or
transferee pursuant to Section 5.03 of the Standard
Terms, the Trustee shall execute, and the Security
Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in the name
of the Master Servicer or its designee, one or more
new Securities in an aggregate principal amount equal
to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the
purchased Securities as of the date of purchase upon
surrender of outstanding certificates evidencing the
Securities, except to the extent that any of such
Securities are in book-entry form (in which case the
transfer of such Securities shall be effected as
provided in the Trust Agreement for book-entry
securities). In connection with the foregoing, and
notwithstanding anything else to the contrary
contained in this Section 9.01 or elsewhere in this
Standard Terms or in the Trust Agreement, if the
Master Servicer elects to purchase the Securities upon
the surrender of the outstanding certificates in
physical form evidencing the same, then (i) such
purchase shall not result in the payment in full of,
or the cessation of interest payments on, the
Securities, (ii) neither the respective obligations
and responsibilities of the parties under the Trust
Agreement nor the Trust shall terminate
(notwithstanding the deposit of funds in respect of
such purchase in the Termination Account), and (iii)
neither the Depositor nor the Trust shall be deemed to
have adopted a plan of liquidation pursuant to Section
9.02 of the Standard Terms.
2. This Amendment to Trust Agreement may be executed in
two or more counterparts, each such counterpart when executed and
delivered shall be an original and all such counterparts together shall
be one and the same document.
3. This Amendment to Trust Agreement shall be construed
in accordance with and governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of
Virginia applicable to agreements made and to be performed therein.

Trustee have caused this Amendment to Trust Agreement to be duly
