Ladies/Gentlemen:

     Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth below, we hereby deliver to [                                                            , as Custodian (in such capacity, the “Custodian”) for]                                                                                  (the “Investor”), with this letter, the original executed promissory note(s) (the “Note(s)”) (and the other Loan Documents (defined below)) evidencing the mortgage loan(s) described on the schedule attached hereto (the “Loan(s)”). U.S. Bank National Association, as agent for certain lenders (in such capacity, the “Agent”) has a perfected first lien security interest in the Loan(s) for the benefit of such lenders pursuant to an Amended and Restated Pledge and Security Agreement between the Agent and the Seller [and a Joinder Agreement between DHI Mortgage Company, Ltd., the Agent and the Seller]. The Agent expressly retains and reserves all of its rights in the Loan(s), the Note(s) and all related security instruments, files, and documents (the “Loan Documents”) until the Investor has paid the Agent the Warehouse Purchase Amount (as hereinafter defined) for the Loan(s) in accordance with this letter (“this Bailee Letter”).

     By taking physical possession of this Bailee Letter, the Note(s) and the other Loan Documents, [the Investor] [the Custodian] hereby agrees:

     (i) to hold in trust, as bailee for the Agent, the Note(s) and all other Loan Documents which it receives related to the Loan(s), until its status as bailee is terminated as set forth herein;

- 4 -

     (ii) not to release or deliver, or authorize the release or delivery of, the Note(s) or any other Loan Document to the Seller or any other entity or person or take any other action with respect to the Note(s) or any other Loan Document which release, delivery or other action could cause the security interest of the Agent to become unperfected or which could otherwise jeopardize the perfected security interest of the Agent in the Loan(s);

     (iii) in the case of any Note(s) that are endorsed in blank, not to complete such blank endorsements unless and until (A) the Loan(s) evidenced by such Note(s) have been accepted for purchase by the Investor and (B) the Warehouse Purchase Amount has been irrevocably paid to the Agent in accordance with the terms hereof;

     (iv) to return the Note(s) and any related Loan Documents immediately to the Agent (A) upon receipt of a written request by the Agent or (B) in the event that the Note(s) require completion and/or correction;

     (v) not to honor any requests or instructions from the Seller relating to any Note (other than for correction), or any other documents relating thereto (other than for correction or replacement thereof or to supplement such documents);

     (vi) promptly upon the Investor’s acceptance or rejection of the Loan(s) for purchase, and in any event within forty-five (45) days after the date of delivery of this Bailee Letter, to either (A) remit the Warehouse Purchase Amount to the Agent or (b) return the Notes and any related Loan Documents to the Agent;

     (vii) to deliver, or to cause to be delivered, the Warehouse Purchase Amount or the Notes and related Loan Documents, as the case may be, only to the Agent pursuant to the terms set forth below and to honor a change in such terms only upon receipt of written instructions from the Agent; and

     (viii) that any interest it may have in the Loan(s), the Note(s) and/or the Loan Documents, including without limitation any claim of setoff it may at any time have, is subject to and subordinate to the security interest of the Agent in the Loan(s), the Note(s) and the other Loan Document(s) and that it will not exercise any right with respect to the Loan(s), the Note(s) or the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of the Agent.

     Please note that should the Investor remit the Warehouse Purchase Amount to any other entity or person, the Agent will not consider the Warehouse Purchase Amount to have been paid and will not release its security interest or terminate the responsibilities of the [Investor] [Custodian] as bailee for the Agent until the Warehouse Purchase Amount has been properly remitted to the Agent as set forth herein.

     The Agent agrees that its security interest in the Loan(s) shall be fully released and the responsibilities of the [Investor] [Custodian] as bailee shall terminate upon the Investor’s irrevocable payment to the Agent of an amount (the “Warehouse Purchase Amount”) equal to the

- 5 -

greater of (1) the purchase price for the Loan(s) agreed to by the Investor and the Seller and (2) $________, which is the aggregate collateral value assigned by the Agent to the Loan(s). All payments by the Investor shall be remitted via federal funds pursuant to the following wire transfer instructions:
