DEUTSCHE ALT-A SECURITIES MORTGAGE LOAN TRUST , SERIES 2007-OA3
MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE

evidencing a fractional undivided interest in the distributions allocable to the Class A- [1][2][3] Certificates with respect to a trust fund generally consisting of a pool of conventional, fixed- and adjustable-rate, negative amortization first lien residential mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”) secured by one- to four- family residences, units in planned unit developments and individual condominium units (the “Trust Fund”) sold by DEUTSCHE ALT-A SECURITIES, INC.

THIS CERTIFICATE DOES NOT REPRESENT AN OBLIGATION OF OR INTEREST IN DEUTSCHE ALT-A SECURITIES, INC., THE MASTER SERVICER, THE SECURITIES ADMINISTRATOR, THE TRUSTEE, ANY SERVICER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES. NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE UNDERLYING MORTGAGE LOANS ARE GUARANTEED BY ANY AGENCY OR INSTRUMENTALITY OF THE UNITED STATES.

This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the Percentage Interest evidenced hereby in the beneficial ownership interest of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate in certain assets of the Trust Fund generally consisting of the Mortgage Loans and related assets sold by Deutsche Alt-A Securities, Inc. (the “Depositor”).  This Certificate is primarily backed by the Mortgage Loans sold by DB Structured Products, Inc. to the Depositor.  Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. will act as master servicer of the Mortgage Loans (the “Master Servicer”, which term includes any successors thereto under the Agreement referred to below). The Trust Fund was created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of the Cut-Off Date specified above (the “Agreement”), among the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Master Servicer and securities ad ministrator (the “Securities Administrator”), HSBC Bank USA, National Association as trustee (the “Trustee”) and Clayton Fixed Income Services Inc., as credit risk manager, a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of its acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following such 25th day (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date (the “Record Date”), in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class A- [1][2][3] Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by the Securities Administrator by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Securities Administrator in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and is the registered owner of Class A- [1][2][3] Certificates or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Securities Administrator of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Sec urities Administrator for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

The Pass-Through Rate with respect to Class A- [1][2][3] Certificates for each Distribution Date through and including the Optional Termination Date will be the lesser of (i) One-Month LIBOR plus the applicable margin set forth in the Agreement for such Class and (ii) the related Net WAC Pass-Through Rate; provided, however, that the margins applicable to each of the Class A- [1][2][3] Certificates will increase by 100% on the Distribution Date following the first possible Optional Termination Date with respect to the Loans.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Mortgage Pass-Through Certificate of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing a Percentage Interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the denomination specified on the face hereof divided by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof.  The Certificates, in the aggregate, evidence the entire beneficial ownership in the Trust Fund formed pursuant to the Agreement.

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the related Mortgage Loans and payments received pursuant to the Interest Rate Floor Agreement [, the Class A-1 Interest Rate Swap Agreement] and the Certificate Interest Rate Swap Agreement, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Protected Accounts and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.  

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing, in the aggregate, not less than 66-2/3% Percentage Interests of all Certificates (with the consent of the Floor Provider only with respect to matters affecting the Interest Rate Floor Agreement, with the consent of the Class A-1 Swap Provider only with respect to matters affecting the Class A-1 Interest Rate Swap Agreement and with the consent of the Certificate Swap Provider only with respect to matters affecting the Certificate Interest Rate Swap Agreement).   Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Securities Administrator as provided in the Agreement, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Securities Administrator duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Securities Administrator may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Securities Administrator and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement of all of the Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the Certificates relating to the applicable Loan; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Loans and the fair market value of each related REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund at the time of purchase, being less than or equal to 10% of the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Initial Loans as of the Cut-Off Date and the amount on deposit into the Pre-Funding Account on the Closing Date.

The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator assumes any responsibility for their correctness.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Securities Administrator, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.




IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Securities Administrator has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.

THIS CERTIFICATE DOES NOT REPRESENT AN OBLIGATION OF OR INTEREST IN DEUTSCHE ALT-A SECURITIES, INC., THE MASTER SERVICER, THE SECURITIES ADMINISTRATOR, THE TRUSTEE, ANY SERVICER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES. NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE UNDERLYING MORTGAGE LOANS ARE GUARANTEED BY ANY AGENCY OR INSTRUMENTALITY OF THE UNITED STATES.

This certifies that Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. is the registered owner of the Percentage Interest evidenced hereby in the beneficial ownership interest of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate in certain assets of the Trust Fund generally consisting of the Mortgage Loans and related assets sold by Deutsche Alt-A Securities, Inc. (the “Depositor”).  The Mortgage Loans were sold by DB Structured Products, Inc. to the Depositor.  Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. will act as master servicer of the Mortgage Loans (the “Master Servicer”, which term includes any successors thereto under the Agreement referred to below). The Trust Fund was created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of the Cut-Off Date specified above (the “Agreement”), among the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Master Servicer and securities administrator (the  47;Securities Administrator”), HSBC Bank USA, National Association as trustee (the “Trustee”) and Clayton Fixed Income Services Inc., as credit risk manager, a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of its acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following such 25th day (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the last Business Day of the month immediately preceding the month in which the related Distribution Date occurs (the “Record Date”), in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class CE Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by the Securities Administrator by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Securities Administrator in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and is the registered owner of Class CE Certificates, or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Securities Administrator of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Securities A dministrator for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Mortgage Pass-Through Certificate of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing a Percentage Interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the denomination specified on the face hereof divided by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof.  The Certificates, in the aggregate, evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund formed pursuant to the Agreement.

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Protected Accounts and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.  

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing, in the aggregate, not less than 66-2/3% Percentage Interests of all Certificates (with the consent of the Floor Provider only with respect to matters affecting the Interest Rate Floor Agreement, with the consent of the Class A-1 Swap Provider only with respect to matters affecting the Class A-1 Interest Rate Swap Agreement and with the consent of the Certificate Swap Provider only with respect to matters affecting the Certificate Interest Rate Swap Agreement).   Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Securities Administrator as provided in the Agreement, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Securities Administrator duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Securities Administrator may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, and an effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. In the event of any such transfer in reliance upon an exemption from the 1933 Act and such state securities laws, in order to assure compliance with the 1933 Act and such state securities laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such Transfer and such Certificateholder’s prospective Transferee shall each certify to the Securities Administrator in writing the facts surrounding the Transfer in substantially the forms set forth in Exhibit D (the “Transferor Certificate”) and (x) deliver a letter in substantially the form of either Exhibit E (the “Investment Letter”) or Exhibit F (the “Rule 144A Letter”) or (y) there shall be delivered to the Depositor and the Securities Administrator an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the Securities Administrator that such Transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee.  None of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator is obligated to register or qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof under the Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification.  Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Securities Administrator and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement of (A) all of the Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the Certificates relating to the applicable Loan; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Loans and the fair market value of each related REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund at the time of purchase, being less than or equal to 10% of the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Initial Loans as of the Cut-Off Date and the amount on deposit into the Pre-Funding Account on the Closing Date.

The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator assume any responsibility for their correctness.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Securities Administrator, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.





IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Securities Administrator has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.

Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Securities Administrator of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Securities Administrator for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of its acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following such 25th day (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the last Business Day of the month immediately preceding the month in which the related Distribution Date occurs (the “Record Date”), in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class [CE-2][CE-3]Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by the Securities Administrator by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Securities Administrator in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and is the registered owner of Class [CE-2][CE-3] Certificates, or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Securities Administrator of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Se curities Administrator for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Mortgage Pass-Through Certificate of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing a Percentage Interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the denomination specified on the face hereof divided by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof.  The Certificates, in the aggregate, evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund formed pursuant to the Agreement.

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the related Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Protected Accounts and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.  

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing, in the aggregate, not less than 66-2/3% Percentage Interests of all Certificates (with the consent of the Floor Provider only with respect to matters affecting the Interest Rate Floor Agreement, with the consent of the Class A-1 Swap Provider only with respect to matters affecting the Class A-1 Interest Rate Swap Agreement and with the consent of the Certificate Swap Provider only with respect to matters affecting the Certificate Interest Rate Swap Agreement).   Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Securities Administrator as provided in the Agreement, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Securities Administrator duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Securities Administrator may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, and an effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. In the event of any such transfer in reliance upon an exemption from the 1933 Act and such state securities laws, in order to assure compliance with the 1933 Act and such state securities laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such Transfer and such Certificateholder’s prospective Transferee shall each certify to the Securities Administrator in writing the facts surrounding the Transfer in substantially the forms set forth in Exhibit D (the “Transferor Certificate”) and (x) deliver a letter in substantially the form of either Exhibit E (the “Investment Letter”) or Exhibit F (the “Rule 144A Letter”) or (y) there shall be delivered to the Depositor and the Securities Administrator an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the Securities Administrator that such Transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee.  None of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator is obligated to register or qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof under the Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification.  Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Securities Administrator and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement of all of the Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the Certificates relating to the applicable Loan; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Loans and the fair market value of each related REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund at the time of purchase, being less than or equal to 10% of the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Initial Loans as of the Cut-Off Date and the amount on deposit into the Pre-Funding Account on the Closing Date.

The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator assumes any responsibility for their correctness.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Securities Administrator by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.




IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Securities Administrator has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.

DEUTSCHE ALT-A SECURITIES MORTGAGE LOAN TRUST , SERIES 2007-OA3
MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE

evidencing a fractional undivided interest in the distributions allocable to the Class R  Certificates with respect to a trust fund generally consisting of a pool of conventional one- to four-family fixed- and adjustable-rate mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”) secured by one- to four- family residences, units in planned unit developments and individual condominium units (the “Trust Fund”) sold by DEUTSCHE ALT-A SECURITIES, INC.

THIS CERTIFICATE DOES NOT REPRESENT AN OBLIGATION OF OR INTEREST IN DEUTSCHE ALT-A SECURITIES, INC., THE MASTER SERVICER, THE SECURITIES ADMINISTRATOR, THE TRUSTEE, ANY SERVICER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES. NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE UNDERLYING MORTGAGE LOANS ARE GUARANTEED BY ANY AGENCY OR INSTRUMENTALITY OF THE UNITED STATES.

This certifies that Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. is the registered owner of the Percentage Interest evidenced hereby in the beneficial ownership interest of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate in certain assets of the Trust Fund generally consisting of the Mortgage Loans and related assets sold by Deutsche Alt-A Securities, Inc. (the “Depositor”).  The Mortgage Loans were sold by DB Structured Products, Inc. to the Depositor.  Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. will act as master servicer of the Mortgage Loans (the “Master Servicer”, which term includes any successors thereto under the Agreement referred to below). The Trust Fund was created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of the Cut-Off Date specified above (the “Agreement”), among the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Master Servicer and securities administrator (the  47;Securities Administrator”), HSBC Bank USA, National Association as trustee (the “Trustee”) and Clayton Fixed Income Services Inc., as credit risk manager, a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of its acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following such 25th day (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the last Business Day of the month immediately preceding the month in which the related Distribution Date occurs (the “Record Date”), in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class R Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by the Securities Administrator by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Securities Administrator in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and is the registered owner of Class R Certificates, or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Securities Administrator of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Securities Ad ministrator for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Mortgage Pass-Through Certificate of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing a Percentage Interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the denomination specified on the face hereof divided by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof.  The Certificates, in the aggregate, evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund formed pursuant to the Agreement.

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans and payments received pursuant to the Cap Agreement, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Protected Accounts and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.  

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing, in the aggregate, not less than 66-2/3% Percentage Interests of all Certificates (with the consent of the Floor Provider only with respect to matters affecting the Interest Rate Floor Agreement, with the consent of the Class A-1 Swap Provider only with respect to matters affecting the Class A-1 Interest Rate Swap Agreement and with the consent of the Certificate Swap Provider only with respect to matters affecting the Certificate Interest Rate Swap Agreement).   Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Securities Administrator as provided in the Agreement, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Securities Administrator duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

Each Holder of this Certificate will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by the restrictions set forth in the Agreement to the effect that (i) each person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in this Certificate must be a United States Person and a Permitted Transferee, (ii) the transfer of any Ownership Interest in this Certificate will be conditioned upon the delivery to the Securities Administrator of, among other things, an affidavit to the effect that it is a United States Person and Permitted Transferee, (iii) any attempted or purported transfer of any Ownership Interest in this Certificate in violation of such restrictions will be absolutely null and void and will vest no rights in the purported transferee, and (iv) if any person other than a United States Person and a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in this Certificate in violation of such restrictions, then the Depositor will have the right, in its sole discretion and without notice to the Holder of this Certificate, to sell this Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Depositor, which purchaser may be the Depositor, or any affiliate of the Depositor, on such terms and conditions as the Depositor may choose.

No transfer of this Certificate to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate shall be made except in accordance with Section 5.3(e) of the Agreement.

Prior to registration of any transfer, sale or other disposition of this Certificate, the proposed transferee shall provide to the Securities Administrator (i) an affidavit to the effect that such transferee is any Person other than a Disqualified Organization or the agent (including a broker, nominee or middleman) of a Disqualified Organization, and (ii) a certificate that acknowledges that (A) the Class R Certificates have been designated as representing the beneficial ownership of the residual interests in each REMIC, (B) it will include in its income a pro rata share of the net income of the Trust Fund and that such income may be an “excess inclusion,” as defined in the Code, that, with certain exceptions, cannot be offset by other losses or benefits from any tax exemption, and (C) it expects to have the financial means to satisfy all of its tax obligations including those relating to holding the Class R Certificates. Notwithstanding the registration in the Certificate Register of any transfer, sale or other disposition of this Certificate to a Disqualified Organization or an agent (including a broker, nominee or middleman) of a Disqualified Organization, such registration shall be deemed to be of no legal force or effect whatsoever and such Person shall not be deemed to be a Certificateholder for any purpose, including, but not limited to, the receipt of distributions in respect of this Certificate.

The Holder of this Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, shall be deemed to have consented to the provisions of Section 5.3(e) of the Agreement and to any amendment of the Agreement deemed necessary by counsel of the Depositor to ensure that the transfer of this Certificate to any Person other than a Permitted Transferee or any other Person will not cause any portion of the Trust Fund to cease to qualify as a REMIC or cause the imposition of a tax upon any REMIC.

No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Securities Administrator may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Securities Administrator and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement of (A) all of the Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the Certificates relating to the applicable Loan; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Loans, as applicable, and the fair market value of each related REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund at the time of purchase, being less than or equal to 10% of the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Initial Loans as of the Cut-Off Date and the amount on deposit into the Pre-Funding Account on the Closing Date.

The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator assume any responsibility for their correctness.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Securities Administrator, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

Until such notice is given, the Transferee’s purchase of the Certificates will constitute a reaffirmation of this certification as of the date of such purchase.
