to finance the origination and acquisition of Mortgage Loans as evidenced by
a Promissory Note in the principal sum of $75,000,000, dated as of August 9,

Security Agreement dated as of August 9, 1999, as the same may have been
amended or supplemented (the "Agreement");
WHEREAS, the Company has requested that the Lender extend the period for
which the Commitment under the Agreement has been made, and amend certain
other terms of the Agreement, and the Lender has agreed to such extension and
amendment subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment; and
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual
covenants, agreements and conditions hereinafter set forth and for other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

definitions in their entirety and replacing them with the following
definitions:
"ELECTRONIC ADVANCE REQUEST" means an electronic transmission through
RFConnects Delivery containing the same information as Exhibit C-SF
to this Agreement, together with the RFConnects Pledge Agreement,
duly executed by the Company, and a list of the Mortgage Loans
(including mortgagor's name, loan number and loan amount) to be
funded with the Advance sent to the Lender by facsimile.
"MATURITY DATE" shall mean the earlier of: (a) the close of business on
October 15, 2000 as such date may be extended from time to time in
writing by the Lender, in its sole discretion, on which date the
Commitment shall expire of its own term, and without the necessity of
action by the Lender, and (b) the date the Advances become due and
payable pursuant to Section 8.1 below.
-1-
"WET SETTLEMENT ADVANCE" means with respect to any Advance, the
time from the date the Advance is made until the date of the
Lender's receipt of the Collateral Documents as provided in
Section 2.2(b) and the Exhibit referenced therein.
5. Section 2.4(b) of the Agreement is deleted in its entirety and the
following is substituted in lieu thereof:
Provided no Default or Event of Default exists, the Company is
entitled to receive a benefit in the form of an "Earnings Credit" on
the portion of the Eligible Balances maintained in time deposit
accounts with a Designated Bank, and the Company is entitled to
receive a benefit in the form of an "Earnings Allowance" on the
portion of the Eligible Balances maintained in demand deposit
accounts with a Designated Bank. Any Earnings Allowance shall be
used first and any Earnings Credit shall be used second as a credit
against accrued Designated Bank Charges, any other Miscellaneous
Charges and fees, including, but not limited to Commitment Fees and
Warehousing Fees, and may be used, at the Lender's option, to reduce
accrued interest. Any Earnings Allowance not used during the month
in which the benefit was received shall be accumulated for use and
must be used within 6 months of the month in which the benefit was
received. Provided no Default or Event of Default exists, any
Earnings Credit not used during the month in which the benefit was
received shall be used to provide a cash benefit to the Company. Any
Earnings Credit retained by the Lender as a result of a Default or
Event of Default will be applied to the payment of the Company's
Obligations in such order as the Lender will determine in its sole
discretion. The Lender's determination of the Earnings Credit and
the Earnings Allowance for any month shall be determined by the
Lender in its sole discretion and shall be conclusive and binding
absent manifest error. In no event shall the benefit received by the
Company exceed the Depository Benefit.
Either party hereto may terminate the benefits provided for in
this Section effective immediately upon Notice to the other party, if
the terminating party shall have determined (which determination
shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) at any time
that any applicable law, rule, regulation, order or decree or any
interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental
authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof,
or compliance by such party with any request or directive (whether or
not having the force of law) of any such authority, shall make it
unlawful or impossible for such party to continue to offer or receive
the benefits provided for in this Section. No Notice is required for
a termination of benefits as a result of a Default or Event of
Default.

Collateral with a Collateral Value sufficient to cover the difference
between the Collateral Value of the Collateral pledged and the
aggregate amount of Advances outstanding hereunder, and/or (b) repay
the Advances in an amount sufficient to reduce the aggregate balance
thereof outstanding to or below the Collateral Value of the

CONSENT OF GUARANTOR
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The undersigned, being the Guarantor under the Guaranty dated as of August 9,
1999, hereby consents to the foregoing Amendment and the transactions
contemplated thereby and hereby modifies and reaffirms his obligations under
his Guaranty so as to include within the term "Guaranteed Debt" the
indebtedness, obligations and liabilities of the Company under this Amendment
and the Note. The Guarantor hereby reaffirms that his obligations under his
Guaranty are separate and distinct from the Company's obligations to Lender,
and that his obligations under the Guaranty are in full force and effect, and
hereby waives and agrees not to assert any anti-deficiency protections or
other rights as a defense to his obligations under the Guaranty, all as more
fully set forth in the Guaranty, the terms of which are incorporated herein
as if fully set forth herein.
The Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any claim or other rights that the
Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire against the Company that arises
from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of the Guarantor's
obligations hereunder, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement,
exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in
any claim or remedy of the Lender against the Company or any collateral that
the Lender now has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, remedy
or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including
the right to take or receive from the Company directly or indirectly, in cash
or other property or by set-off or in any manner, payment or security on
account of such claim or other right, until the Guaranteed Debt has been paid
and performed in full. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in
violation of the preceding sentence, such amount shall be deemed to have been
paid to the Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for, the Lender
and shall forthwith be paid to the Lender to be credited and applied to the
Guaranteed Debt, whether matured or unmatured. In addition, to the extent
permitted by law, the Guarantor irrevocably releases and waives any such
subrogation rights or rights of reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or
indemnity if and to the extent any such right or rights would give rise to a
claim under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code that payments or transfers to the Lender
with respect to the Guaranteed Debt constitute a preference in favor of the
Guarantor or a claim under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code that the preference is
recoverable from the Lender.
The Guarantor further agrees, upon Lender's request, to execute for the
benefit of Lender an additional guaranty in form and content acceptable to
Lender and conforming to the Guaranty in connection with the foregoing
Amendment.
