Class A-[•]

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Home Equity Asset Trust 2005-8, Home Equity Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-8, of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein collectively called the “Certificates”), and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund created by the Agreement.

The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the Certificate Account for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the Agreement.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25^th day of each month, or, if such 25^thday is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (the “Distribution Date”), commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the applicable 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 Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement. The Record Date applicable to each Distribution Date is (1) with respect to all Definitive Certificates, the last business day of the month preceding the Distribution Date and (2) with respect to all Certificates held in Book-Entry Form only, the Business Day immediately preceding the Distribution Date.

Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Holder hereof at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date and such Certificateholder shall satisfy the conditions to receive such form of payment set forth in the Agreement, or, if not, by check mailed by first class mail to the address of such Certificateholder appearing in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Servicers, the Special Servicer, the Seller and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates affected by such amendment evidencing the requisite Percentage Interest, as provided in the 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 therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office or the office or agency maintained by the Trustee in St. Paul, Minnesota, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar 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 and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust Fund will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations 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 and 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, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

The Depositor, the Servicers, the Special Servicer, the Seller, the Trustee, and any agent of the Depositor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Servicers, the Special Servicer, the Seller, the Depositor, the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

On any Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than 10% of the Aggregate Loan Balance as of the Cut-off Date and the amount on deposit in the Prefunding Account on the Closing Date, the Terminating Entity will have the option to repurchase, in whole, from the Trust Fund all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of the Mortgage Loans at a purchase price determined as provided in the Agreement. In the event that no such optional termination occurs, the obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement will terminate upon the later of the maturity or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund or the disposition of all property in respect thereof and the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed pursuant to th e Agreement. In no event, however, will the trust created by the Agreement continue beyond the expiration of (i) 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants living at the date of the Agreement of a certain person named in the Agreement or (ii) the Distribution Date in February 2036.

Any term used herein that is defined in the Agreement shall have the meaning assigned in the Agreement, and nothing herein shall be deemed inconsistent with that meaning.

The Transferee is, as of the date hereof, and will be, as of the date of the Transfer, a Permitted Transferee. The Transferee is acquiring its Ownership Interest in the Certificate for its own account. The Transferee has no knowledge that any such affidavit is false.

The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that (i) a tax will be imposed on Transfers of the Certificate to Persons that are not Permitted Transferees; (ii) such tax will be imposed on the transferor, or, if such Transfer is through an agent (which includes a broker, nominee or middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, on the agent; and (iii) the Person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability for the tax if the subsequent Transferee furnished to such Person an affidavit that such subsequent Transferee is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of Transfer, such Person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is false.

The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that a tax will be imposed on a “pass-through entity” holding the Certificate if at any time during the taxable year of the pass-through entity a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee is the record holder of an interest in such entity. The Transferee understands that such tax will not be imposed for any period with respect to which the record holder furnishes to the pass-through entity an affidavit that such record holder is a Permitted Transferee and the pass-through entity does not have actual knowledge that such affidavit is false. (For this purpose, a “pass-through entity” includes a regulated investment company, a real estate investment trust or common trust fund, a partnership, trust or estate, and certain cooperatives and, except as may be provided in Treasury Regulations, persons holding interests in pass-through e ntities as a nominee for another Person.)

The Transferee has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.02(b) of the Agreement (attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and incorporated herein by reference) and understands the legal consequences of the acquisition of an Ownership Interest in the Certificate including, without limitation, the restrictions on subsequent Transfers and the provisions regarding voiding the Transfer and mandatory sales. The Transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and to abide by the provisions of Section 5.02(b) of the Agreement and the restrictions noted on the face of the Certificate. The Transferee understands and agrees that any breach of any of the representations included herein shall render the Transfer to the Transferee contemplated hereby null and void.

The Transferee agrees to require a Transfer Affidavit from any Person to whom the Transferee attempts to Transfer its Ownership Interest in the Certificate, and in connection with any Transfer by a Person for whom the Transferee is acting as nominee, trustee or agent, and the Transferee will not Transfer its Ownership Interest or cause any Ownership Interest to be Transferred to any Person that the Transferee knows is not a Permitted Transferee. In connection with any such Transfer by the Transferee, the Transferee agrees to deliver to the Trustee a certificate substantially in the form set forth as EXHIBIT J to the Agreement (a “Transferor Certificate”) to the effect that such Transferee has no actual knowledge that the Person to which the Transfer is to be made is not a Permitted Transferee.

The Transferee does not have the intention to impede the assessment or collection of any tax legally required to be paid with respect to the Certificate.

The Transferee’s taxpayer identification number is [_____________].

The Transferee is a United States Person.

10.

The Transferee is aware that the Certificate may be a “noneconomic residual interest” within the meaning of proposed Treasury regulations promulgated pursuant to the Code and that the transferor of a noneconomic residual interest will remain liable for any taxes due with respect to the income on such residual interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer was to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

11.

In accordance with Revenue Procedure 2001-12, I.R.B. 2001-2,

(a)

the consideration paid to the Transferee for accepting the Class R Certificates is greater than the present value of the anticipated net federal income taxes and tax benefits (“Tax Liability Present Value”) associated with owning such Certificates, with such present value computed suing a discount rate equal to the “applicable federal rate” prescribed by Section 1274 of the Internal Revenue Code as of the date hereof (with all applicable computations done in accordance with Rev. Proc. 2001-12) or, to the extent it is not, if the Transferee has asserted that it regularly borrows, in the ordinary course of its trade or business, substantial funds from unrelated third parties at a lower interest rate than such applicable federal rate and the consideration paid to the Transferee is greater than the Tax Liability Present Value using such lower interest rate as the discount rate, the transactions with the unrelated third party lenders, the interest rate or rates, the date or dates of such transactions, and the maturity dates or, in the case of adjustable rate debt instruments, the relevant adjustment dates or periods, with respect to such borrowings, are accurately stated in Exhibit A to this letter; or

(b)

the Transferee (i) is an “eligible corporation” as defined in Section 860L(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code, as to which the income of Class R Certificates will only be subject to taxation in the United States, (ii) has, and has had in each of its two preceding fiscal years, gross assets for financial reporting purposes (excluding any obligation of a person related to the transferee within the meaning of Section 860L of the Internal Revenue Code) in excess of $100 million and net assets of $10 million, and (iii) hereby agrees only to transfer the Certificate to another corporation meeting the criteria set forth in this letter.

12.

That the Owner:

(a) is not an employee benefit plan or arrangement subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) an entity whose underlying assets include such plan’s or arrangement’s assets (a “Plan”), or any other person purchasing any Certificate for, on behalf of or with the assets of, any such Plan (a “Benefit Plan Investor”);

(b) is an insurance company, the source of funds to be used by it to purchase the Certificates is an “insurance company general account” (within the meaning of Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 95-60), and the purchase is being made in reliance upon the availability of the exemptive relief afforded under Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60; or

(c) provides an Opinion of Counsel which establishes to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee that the purchase and holding of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate by a Benefit Plan Investor will not result in non-exempt prohibited transactions under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and will not subject the Depositor, the Trustee, the Special Servicer or the Servicers to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement.

Section 5.02(b) of the Agreement

No transfer of a Private Certificate shall be made unless such transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the registration requirements under said Act and such state securities laws. Except in connection with any transfer of a Private Certificate by the Depositor to any affiliate, in the event that a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act and such laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities Act and such laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer shall certify to the Trustee in writing the facts surrounding the transfer in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit J (the “Transferor Certificate”) and such Certificateholder’s prospective transferee shall either (i) deliver a letter in substantially the form of (A) Exhibit L (the “Rule 144A Letter”) or (B) if the Private Certificate subject to such transfer represents the entire Class or the Depositor otherwise consents to such transfer, Exhibit K (the “Investment Letter”) or (ii) there shall be delivered to the Trustee at the expense of the transferor an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act. The Depositor shall provide to any Holder of a Private Certificate and any prospective transferee designated by any such Holder, information regarding the related Certificates and the Mortgage Loans and such other information as shall be necessary to satisfy the condition to eligibility set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) for transfer of any such Private Certificate without registration thereof under the Securities Act pursuant to the registration exemption provided by Rule 144A. The Trustee shall cooperate with the Depositor in providing the Rule 144A information referenced in t he preceding sentence, including providing to the Depositor such information regarding the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans and other matters regarding the Trust Fund as the Depositor shall reasonably request to meet its obligation under the preceding sentence. Each Holder of a Private Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Seller, the Special Servicer and the Servicers 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.

No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate shall be made unless the Trustee shall have received in accordance with Exhibit I, Exhibit K or Exhibit L, as applicable, either (i) a representation letter from the transferee of such Certificate, acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, to the effect that such transferee is not a Plan or a Person acquiring such ERISA-Restricted Certificate for, on behalf of or with the assets of, any such Plan, (a “Benefit Plan Investor”), which representation letter shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund, (ii) in the case of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate if the purchaser is an insurance company and the Certificate has been the subject of an ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, a representation that the purchaser is an insurance company which is purchasing such Certificates with funds contained in an “insurance company general account” (as such term is defined in Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 (“PTCE 95-60”)) and that the purchase and holding of such Certificates are covered under Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 or (iii) in the case of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate presented for registration in the name of a Benefit Plan Investor without a representation as required above, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee to the effect that the purchase or holding of such Certificate will not result in prohibited transactions under Section 406 of ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Depositor, the Trustee, the Special Servicer or the Servicers to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of such parties. In the event the representations referred to in the preceding sentence are not furnished, such representations shall be deemed to have been made to the trustee b y the transferee’s acceptance of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate by any beneficial owner who purchases an interest in such Certificate in book-entry form. In the event that a representation is violated, or any attempt to transfer an ERISA-Restricted Certificate to a Benefit Plan Investor is attempted without the delivery to the Trustee of the Opinion of Counsel described above, the attempted transfer or acquisition of such Certificate shall be void and of no effect.

No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Swap Certificate prior to the termination of the Swap Agreement shall be made unless the Trustee shall have received a representation letter from the transferee of such Certificate, substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit H, to the effect that either (i) such transferee is neither a Plan nor a Person acting on behalf of any such Plan or using the assets of any such Plan to effect such transfer or (ii) the acquisition and holding of the ERISA-Restricted Swap Certificate are eligible for exemptive relief under Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 84-14, PTCE 90-1, PTCE 91-38, PTCE 95-60 or PTCE 96-23. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, any purported transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Swap Certificate prior to the termination of the Swap Agreement or on behalf of a Plan without the delivery to the Trustee of a represe ntation letter as described above shall be void and of no effect. If the ERISA-Restricted Swap Certificate is a Book-Entry Certificate, the transferee will be deemed to have made a representation as provided in this paragraph.

If any ERISA-Restricted Swap Certificate, or any interest therein, is acquired or held in violation of the provisions of the preceding paragraph, the next preceding permitted beneficial owner will be treated as the beneficial owner of that Certificate, retroactive to the date of transfer to the purported beneficial owner. Any purported beneficial owner whose acquisition or holding of an ERISA-Restricted Swap Certificate, or interest therein, was effected in violation of the provisions of the preceding paragraph shall indemnify to the extent permitted by law and hold harmless the Depositor, the Trustee, the Special Servicer or the Servicers from and against any and all liabilities, claims, costs or expenses incurred by such parties as a result of such acquisition or holding.

To the extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not limited to, ERISA), the Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate or ERISA-Restricted Swap Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 5.02(b) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was registered by the Trustee in accordance with the foregoing requirements.

Abandonment Rate The percentage of total incoming calls to the customer service area which are not directed to the automated telephony response system in which the customer terminates the call prior to connection with a customer service representative.

Collection Calls – First 15 days of Delinquency These calls are made for all mortgage loans that are past due and have broken a Promise to Pay between the first and 15th day of delinquency, except for loans that are screened out from such calls for reasons including, but not limited to: bankruptcies, interim payments in the first 30 days after transfer, loans for which borrowers have requested in writing that the Servicer not contact them and early indicator scoring exclusions. On initial contact for a second lien account, the Servicer shall obtain senior lien information for the mortgagor. The expectation is that the Servicer will make an Attempt every other business day.

Collection Calls – After the 15th Day of Delinquency but Not Yet in Foreclosure. These calls are made for all Mortgage Loans that are delinquent and have broken a Promise to Pay after the 15th day of delinquency, except for loans that are screened out from such calls for reasons including, but not limited to: bankruptcies, loans in foreclosure, loans for which borrowers have requested in writing that the Servicer not contact them and early indicator scoring exclusions. As applicable, the expectation is that the Servicer will make two Attempts each business day.

Foreclosure Timelines For Mortgage Loans in foreclosure, Servicer will, subject to clause (ii) below, meet or improve upon the foreclosure timelines. The Servicer will use the most recently published Freddie Mac foreclosure timelines as may be amended from time to time. The Servicer will not be penalized with a reduction in fees for unavoidable delays such as bankruptcy, missing documents, workouts authorized by the residual holder, contested actions, service of process delays, sheriff sale scheduling delays, court delays in entering judgment or scheduling hearings, and other circumstances agreed to by the residual holder, provided that the Servicer (i) has documented its system accordingly and (ii) upon request by the residual holder, provide a report of such conditions, such report detailing corrective actions taken, the date of such actions and the expected resolution date, and demonstrating diligent time management to resolve such issues.

Foreclosure Timeline Percentage For all Mortgage Loans with a completed foreclosure sale during the preceding month, the average across all such loans of the ratio of the number of days to foreclosure from the date of the foreclosure initiation divided by the applicable FHLMC standard in the relevant state.

Pre-Foreclosure Resolution shall mean any of the following:

Reinstatement - means any defaulted mortgage loan for which the borrower brings the Mortgage Loan back to a status no more than 60 days delinquent through a lump sum payment or otherwise consistent with the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Full payoff - means any defaulted mortgage loan which is paid in full as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Cash for keys – means a defaulted mortgage loan for which the mortgagor surrenders the property in exchange for a cash sum to enable foreclosure on a property with imperfect title.

Shortfall payoff - means a defaulted mortgage loan for which a final payment in an amount less than the indebtedness owed under the applicable mortgage note is made consistent with the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and such payment is received by the Servicer in full satisfaction of such indebtedness.

Deed-in-Lieu of Foreclosure - means a defaulted mortgage loan for which title to the mortgaged property is taken by the Servicer through deed in lieu of foreclosure and the resulting REO Property is to be liquidated consistent with the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Modification/Deferral (subject to REMIC restrictions) - means a defaulted mortgage loan which is modified in a manner consistent with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and for which the borrower has made three consecutive payments consistent with the terms of such mortgage loan as so modified.

Forbearance Plan – means a defaulted mortgage loan for which a borrower has made payments in accordance with a forbearance plan entered into by the borrower.

Take-out at Foreclosure Sale - means the mortgaged property related to a defaulted mortgage loan that is purchased at a foreclosure sale by a party other than the Servicer in a manner consistent with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pre-Foreclosure Resolution Rate is calculated as the percentage of the loans (by number) that are at least 90 days past due at the beginning of a month on which a Pre-Foreclosure Resolution is achieved during the month divided by the sum of such resolved loans and the number of loans that go to REO during the month.

Promise to Pay is an agreement with the Obligor to make at least one full payment within thirty days.

Reconciled Market Value (“RMV”) is the targeted sales price of a REO property. RMV is established following an analysis by the Servicer’s in-house appraisers of competing marketing plans and other market conditions. This analysis will include a review of the interior Broker Price Opinions (BPOs) received from the listing agent and an outside third party real-estate agent. This set value never changes throughout the servicing of the REO asset and will be reflected in all reporting.

REO Sellable Portfolio is the entire REO portfolio less any REO in eviction, redemption under contract or other situations in which Servicer cannot pass marketable title and must have at least 25 REO properties listed with an average list age of at least 90 days.

Right Party Contact Rate means a person-to-person contact with an obligor (a signer of the Mortgage Note), or, where applicable, the obligor’s legal guardian or attorney-in-fact with respect to the loan, or other third party as appointed by the mortgagor.

Roll Rate is calculated as a three month rolling average percentage of loans, based on Unpaid Principal Balance, that remain in the same bucket or improve their delinquency status (including loans that payoff or are otherwise liquidated) from previous month-end to current month-end.

Total Reconciled Market Value is the sum of all the RMVs on all the REO closings in the month.

Total Sales Price is the sum of the sales price of all REO closings in the month, less any Sellers’ closing concessions in which the sales price was inflated to reflect the concession amount.
