CHASE MORTGAGE FINANCE CORPORATION
Unless this Certificate is presented by an authorized representative of the Depository Trust

or payment, and any certificate issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other

Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register, or by

financial or depository institution having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Holder has so
notified the Paying Agent in writing at least 10 Business Days prior to the first Distribution Date
for which distribution by wire transfer is to be made, and such Holder’s Certificates evidence an
aggregate Original Denomination of not less than $5,000,000 or such Holder holds a 100% Percentage
Interest of such Class. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will
be made after due notice by the Paying Agent, of the pendency of such distribution and only upon
presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office of the Paying Agent, for the purpose
and specified in such notice of final distribution.
The Paying Agent will cause to be kept at its Agency & Trust Office in New York, New York, or

this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Paying Agent of the pendency of such
distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency
of the Paying Agent, for that purpose and specified in such notice of final distribution.

MULTI-CLASS MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE
SERIES 2007-S1
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Chase
Mortgage Finance Corporation, Chase Mortgage Finance Trust Series 2007-S1, Multi-Class Mortgage
Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2007-S1 and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the
Trust Fund (consisting primarily of the Trust Account and the Uncertificated REMIC Interests issued
by the Underlying Trust which consists primarily of fixed-rate mortgage loans (the “Underlying
Mortgage Loans”) secured by first liens on one- to four-family residential properties) created by
the Trust Agreement.
Following the initial issuance of the Certificates, the Principal Balance of this Certificate
will be different from the Original Denomination shown above. Anyone acquiring this Certificate
may ascertain its current Principal Balance by inquiry of the Paying Agent.
The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely
to the funds on deposit in the Trust Account for payment hereunder and that the Paying Agent is not
liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Trust
Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Trust Agreement, subject to any liability under
the Trust Agreement.
This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement or the Trust Agreement and
reference is made to such agreements for the interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits,
obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee and
the Paying Agent.
The Paying Agent will cause to be kept at its Agency & Trust Office in New York, New York, a
Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the
Paying Agent will provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of
Certificates. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at any office or
agency of the Paying Agent, the Paying Agent will, subject to the limitations set forth in the
Agreement, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, a
Certificate of a like Class and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust Fund
and dated the date of authentication by the Authenticating Agent.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the
Paying Agent may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge
payable in connection therewith.
This Certificate is an [Exchangeable Initial Certificate][Exchangeable Certificate] and may be
exchanged for the [Exchangeable Certificates][Exchangeable Initial Certificates] in the related
Exchangeable Combination specified in the Trust Agreement, subject to certain terms and conditions
specified in the Trust Agreement, including the payment to the Paying Agent of a fee (as described
in the Trust Agreement) with respect to each exchange. This Certificate may be
A-1
exchanged for another Certificate or Certificates in the related Exchangeable Combination only
on the days of each month specified in the Trust Agreement.
Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the
Servicer, the Paying Agent and the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is
registered as the owner of such Certificate and the Percentage Interest in the Trust Fund evidenced
thereby for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to the Agreement and for all other
purposes whatsoever, and neither the Depositor, the Servicer, the Paying Agent nor the Trustee will
be affected by notice to the contrary.
The Trust Agreement may be amended or supplemented from time to time by the Depositor, the
Paying Agent and the Trustee upon the same terms and conditions as the Pooling Agreement may be
amended or supplemented.
The Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee,
without the consent of any of the Certificateholders, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or
supplement any provisions therein which may be inconsistent with the other provisions therein, to
ensure continuing treatment of each REMIC (as hereinafter defined) included in the Trust Fund as a
REMIC, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the
Agreement which are not materially inconsistent with the provisions of the Agreement, provided that
such action does not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder or cause any REMIC included in the Trust Fund to
fail to qualify as a REMIC.
The Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the
Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than
66-2/3% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected thereby for the purpose
of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the
Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class;
provided, however, that no such amendment may (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the
timing of, payments received on Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed on any
Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (ii) reduce the aforesaid
percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such
amendment or (iii) change the percentage specified in clause (ii) of the first paragraph of Section
11.01 of the Agreement, without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then
outstanding.
The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Depositor, the Servicer (except the
duty to pay the Trustee’s fees and expenses and indemnification hereunder) and the Trustee shall
terminate upon (i) the later of the final payment or other liquidation (or any Advance with respect
thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or
deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and the remittance of all funds due hereunder; or
(ii) at the option of the Servicer on any Distribution Date which occurs in the month next
following a Due Date on which the aggregate unpaid Principal Balance of all Outstanding Mortgage
Loans is less than 10% of the aggregate unpaid Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans on the
Cut-off Date, so long as the Servicer deposits or causes to be deposited in the applicable
Collection Account during the Principal Prepayment Period related to such
Distribution Date (and provides notice to the Trustee of its intention to so deposit on or
before the 20th day of such Principal Prepayment Period) an amount equal to the Purchase Price for
each Outstanding Mortgage Loan, less any unreimbursed Advances made with respect to any Mortgage
Loan (which amount shall offset completely any unreimbursed Advances for which the Servicer is
otherwise entitled to reimbursement), and, with respect to all property acquired in respect of any
Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund, an amount equal to the fair market value of such
property, as determined by an appraisal to be conducted by an appraiser selected by the Trustee,
less unreimbursed Advances made with respect to any Mortgage Loan with respect to which property
has been acquired; provided, however, that in no event shall the trust created by the Agreement
continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants
of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James’s, living
on the date hereof.
