RECITALS
          WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to amend the Sale and Servicing Agreement subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment.
          NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
          SECTION 1. Defined Terms. Any terms capitalized but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
          SECTION 2. Amendments. Effective as of June 29, 2005 the following amendments shall be in full force and effect.
  (i)   Section 1.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following definitions:
               “Interest-Only Loan” is a Loan which, by its terms, requires the related Borrower to make monthly payments of only accrued interest for the certain period of time following origination. After such interest-only period, the loan terms provide that the Borrower’s monthly payment will be recalculated to cover both interest and principal so that such Loan will amortize fully on or prior to its final payment date.”
               “40/30 Loan” is a Loan which, by its terms, matures in 30 years, and requires the related borrower to make monthly payments during such term calculated on

 


 

the basis of a 40-year amortization schedule, and accordingly provides for a higher single payment at maturity.”
  (ii)   Paragraph (xx) of Exhibit E to the Sale and Servicing Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:
               “(xx) Except for Interest-Only Loans, Principal payments on the Loan commenced no more than two months after the proceeds of the Loan were disbursed. The Loan bears interest at the Loan Interest Rate. With respect to each Loan unless otherwise stated on the Loan Schedule, the Promissory Note is payable on the first day of each month in Monthly Payments which, except for Balloon Loans, are sufficient to fully amortize the original principal balance over the original term thereof and to pay interest at the related Loan Interest Rate, and, in the case of each ARM, are changed on each Adjustment Date. The Promissory Note does not permit negative amortization. No Loan is a Convertible Mortgage Loan;”
  (iii)   Paragraph (xxxvii) of Exhibit E to the Sale and Servicing Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:
               “(xxxvii) Except for 40/30 Loans and as set forth on the Loan Schedule, no Loan has a balloon payment feature;”
          SECTION 3. Representations. In order to induce the parties hereto to execute and deliver this Amendment, each of the Issuer, the Depositor and the Loan Originator hereby jointly and severally represents to the other parties hereto and the Noteholders that as of the date hereof, after giving effect to this Amendment, (a) all of its respective representations and warranties in the Note Purchase Agreement and the other Basic Documents are true and correct, and (b) it is otherwise in full compliance with all of the terms and conditions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
          SECTION 4. Limited Effect. Except as expressly amended and modified by this Amendment, the Sale and Servicing Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. Reference to this Amendment need not be made in the Sale and Servicing Agreement or any other instrument or document executed in connection therewith or herewith, or in any certificate, letter or communication issued or made pursuant to, or with respect to, the Sale and Servicing Agreement, any reference in any of such items to the Sale and Servicing Agreement being sufficient to refer to the Sale and Servicing Agreement as amended hereby.
          SECTION 5. Fees and Expenses. The Issuer and the Depositor jointly and severally covenant to pay as and when billed by the Initial Noteholder all of the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and in the other Basic Documents including, without limitation, (i) all reasonable fees, disbursements and expenses of counsel to the Initial Noteholder, (ii) all reasonable fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee and Owner Trustee and their counsel and (iii) all reasonable fees and expenses of the Custodian and its counsel.
