"29. TERMINATION
a) This Agreement shall remain in effect until the earlier of (i) the
Termination Date and (ii) the occurrence of a Default. However, no such
termination shall affect Seller's outstanding obligations to Buyer at the time
of such termination. Seller's obligations to indemnify Buyer and Agent pursuant

b) Agent shall be entitled to a break-up fee equal to 0.3125% of the
highest aggregate principal balance of the Purchased Securities on any day
during the period from the last securitization ("Securitization") underwritten
by Buyer's affiliate to the date of such termination (the "Break-up Fee") that
are repurchased by Seller and neither immediately resold to Agent in a
Transaction nor sold to, or underwritten (as sole manager) by, such affiliate of
Agent (as mortgage-backed securities) in a Securitization; provided however that
such a Break-up Fee shall not apply to:
(i) any Purchased Security which is not resold in a
Transaction because, as determined by Agent, it is
not an Eligible Mortgage Loan as that term is defined
in the Custody Agreement;
(ii) any Purchased Security which is not resold in a
Transaction or sold to Agent in a Securitization
because it fails to meet, as determined by Agent, the
representations and warranties relating to a
Securitization or fails to meet, as determined by
Agent, the selection criteria for such
Securitization; or
(iii) any Purchased Security (x) which has been paid in
full or (y) to the extent of the amounts of any
principal reductions relating to such Purchased
Security.
The Break-up Fee is earned and payable on the earlier of (i) a sale or
Securitization of the Purchased Securities by Seller (other than a
Securitization sole managed by Buyer's affiliate) and (ii) June 30, 1999.
