Each Certificate shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Owner Trustee by any responsible officer thereof. Any Certificate bearing the manual or facsimile signature of an individual who was, at the time when such signature was affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Owner Trustee shall not be rendered invalid, notwithstanding that such individual ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificate or does not hold such office at the date of such Certificate. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by or on behalf of the Registrar by the manual signature of a Responsible Officer, and such certificate upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Section 3.6

ARTICLE V

APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS; CERTAIN DUTIES

Section 5.1

Establishment of Trust Account. The Trust hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee for the purpose of establishing and maintaining the Distribution Account and making the distributions therefrom to the Persons entitled thereto pursuant to Section 5.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Trust shall cause the Indenture Trustee to establish and maintain with the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Trust one or more Eligible Accounts in accordance with the Indenture.

Section 5.2

Application Of Trust Funds.

(a)

On each Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall make the distributions and payments set forth in Section 5.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement from amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account.

(b)

On or before the third Business Day following each Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall send to DTC the statement provided to the Paying Agent by the Servicer pursuant to Section 5.03 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Payment Date.

(c)

In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Trust’s payment (or allocations of income) to the Transferor, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Transferor in accordance with this Section 5.2. The Paying Agent is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Transferor sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not prevent the Paying Agent from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to the Transferor shall be treated as cash distributed to the Transferor at the time it is withheld by the Trust and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution (such as a distribution to a non-U.S. person), the Paying Agent may in its sole discretion withhold such amounts in accordance with this paragraph (c). In the event that the Transferor wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Owner Trustee and the Paying Agent shall reasonably cooperate with the Transferor in making such claim so long as the Transferor agrees to reimburse the Owner Trustee and the Paying Agent for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred.

Section 5.3

Method of Payment. Distributions required to be made to the Transferor on any Payment Date shall be made to the Transferor of record on the preceding Record Date in the manner set forth in Section 5.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

Section 5.5

Accounting and Reports to the Transferor, the Internal Revenue Service and Others. Upon written request of the Transferor, the Owner Trustee shall deliver to the Transferor such information, reports or statements in its possession as may be required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations and as may be required to enable the Transferor to prepare its respective federal and state income tax returns. Consistent with the Trust’s characterization for tax purposes as a security arrangement for the issuance of non-recourse debt, no federal income tax return shall be filed on behalf of the Trust unless either (a) the Trust or the Transferor shall receive an Opinion of Counsel based on a change in applicable law occurring after the date hereof that the Code requires such a filing or (b) the Internal Revenue Service shall determine that the Trust is required to file such a return. In the event that the Trust is required to file tax returns, the Administrator, on behalf of the Trust, shall elect under Section 1278 of the Code to include in income currently any market discount that accrues with respect to the Mortgage Loans. The Administrator, on behalf of the Trust, shall prepare or shall cause to be prepared any tax returns required to be filed by the Trust and shall remit such returns to the Transferor at least five days before such returns are due to be filed. The Transferor, or any other such party required by law, shall promptly sign such returns and deliver such returns after signature to the Administrator and such returns shall be filed by, or at the direction of, the Administrator with the appropriate tax authorities.

General Duties. It shall be the duty of the Owner Trustee to discharge (or cause to be discharged) all of its responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and to administer the Trust in the interest of the Transferor, subject to the Transaction Documents and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its duties and responsibilities hereunder and under the Transaction Documents to the extent the Administrator has agreed in the Administration Agreement to perform any act or to discharge any duty of the Owner Trustee hereunder or under any Transaction Document, and the Owner Trustee shall not be held liable for the default or failure of the Administrator to carry out their respective obligations under the Administration Agreement.

Section 6.3

Action upon Instruction.

Subject to Article IV herein and in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents, the Transferor or the Insurer (so long as no Insurer Default exists) may by written instruction direct the Owner Trustee in the management of the Trust but only to the extent consistent with the limited purpose of the Trust.

(b)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall not be required to take any action hereunder or under any Transaction Document if the Owner Trustee shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by counsel, that such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the Owner Trustee or is contrary to the terms hereof or of any Transaction Document or is otherwise contrary to law.

(c)

Whenever the Owner Trustee is unable to decide between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this Agreement or under any Transaction Document, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Transferor and the Insurer (so long as no Insurer Default exists) requesting instruction from the Transferor and the Insurer (so long as no Insurer Default exists) as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with any written instruction of the Transferor or the Insurer received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interest of the Transferor, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

(d)

In the event that the Owner Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Document or any such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that this Agreement provides no direction to the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action that the Owner Trustee is required to take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Owner Trustee may give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Transferor and the Insurer requesting instruction and, to the extent that the Owner Trustee acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received from the Insurer, or if there is an Insurer Default, the Transferor, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interest of the Transferor, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

Section 6.4

No Duties Except as Specified in this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or in Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, dispose of, or otherwise deal with the Owner Trust Estate, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby to which the Owner Trustee or the Trust is a party, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement, any Transaction Document to which the Owner Trustee is a Party or in any written instruction received by the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.3; and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement or any Transaction Document against the Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement in any public office at anytime or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien granted to it hereunder or to prepare or file any tax or Securities and Exchange Commission filing for the Trust or to record this Agreement or any Transaction Document. The Owner Trustee nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any liens on any part of the Owner Trust Estate that result from actions by, or claims against, the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity that are not related to the ownership or the administration of the Owner Trust Estate.

Section 6.5

No Action Except Under Specified Documents or Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not manage, control, use, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Owner Trust Estate except (i) in accordance with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) in accordance with the Transaction Documents or (iii) in accordance with any document or instruction delivered to the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.3 above.

Section 6.6

Restrictions.

The Owner Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Trust, the Indenture Trustee, the Rating Agencies, the Insurer, the Transferor and the Seller. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee with the consent of the Insurer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Owner Trustee and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee. If no successor Owner Trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Owner Trustee or the Insurer may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee.

If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.1 above and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Indenture Trustee, or if at any time the Owner Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Owner Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Owner Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Indenture Trustee may, and, at the direction of the Insurer, shall, remove the Owner Trustee. If the Indenture Trustee shall remove the Owner Trustee under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence, (i) the Indenture Trustee shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee acceptable to the Insurer by written instrument in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the outgoing Owner Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee and (ii) upon notice of such removal, the Depositor shall pay all fees owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee.

Any resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee and appointment of a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 10. 2 shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.3, written approval by the Insurer and payment by the Depositor of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee. The Indenture Trustee shall provide notice of such resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee to each of the Rating Agencies.

Section 10.3

Successor Owner Trustee. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 10.2 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer and to its predecessor Owner Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment under this Agreement, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Owner Trustee shall become effective and such successor Owner Trustee (if acceptable to the Insurer), without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties, and obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement, with like effect as if originally named as Owner Trustee. The predecessor Owner Trustee shall upon payment of its fees and expenses deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all documents and statements and monies held by it under this Agreement; and the Indenture Trustee and the predecessor Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Owner Trustee all such rights, powers, duties, and obligations.

No successor Owner Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 10.3 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Owner Trustee shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.1 above.

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section 10.3, the Indenture Trustee shall mail notice of the successor of such Owner Trustee to the Transferor, the Noteholders, the Insurer and the Rating Agencies. If the Indenture Trustee fails to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee, the successor Owner Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Indenture Trustee.

Section 10.4

Merger or Consolidation of Owner Trustee. Any corporation into which the Owner Trustee may be merged or converted or with which either may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Owner Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Owner Trustee, shall be the successor of the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, hereunder, provided such corporation shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.1 above, without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided further that the Owner Trustee, shall mail notice of such merger or consolidation to the Depositor, the Seller, the Transferor, the Rating Agencies and the Insurer.

Section 10.5

Appointment of Co-Owner Trustee or Separate Owner Trustee. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Owner Trust Estate or any Mortgaged Property may at the time be located, the Owner Trustee (with the consent of the Insurer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as co-owner trustee, jointly with the Owner Trustee, or separate owner trustee or separate owner trustees, of all or any part of the Owner Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person, in such capacity, such title to the Owner Trust Estate, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Owner Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-owner trustee or separate trustee under this Section 10.5 shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.1 above and no notice of the appointment of any co-owner trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 10.3 above.

Each separate trustee and co-owner trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provision and conditions:

(i)

all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Owner Trustee shall be conferred upon and exercised or performed by the Owner Trustee and such separate owner trustee or co-owner trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate owner trustee or co-owner trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Owner Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the Owner Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties, and obligations (including the holding of title to the Owner Trust Estate or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-owner trustee but solely at the direction of the Owner Trustee;

(ii)

no owner trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other owner trustee under this Agreement; and

(iii)

the Owner Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-owner trustee.

Any notice, request or other writing given to the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to the separate trustees and co-owner trustees, as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate owner trustee or co-owner trustee, other than this Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement and to the conditions of this Article X. Each separate trustee and co-owner trustee, upon its acceptance of appointment, shall be vested with the estates specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Owner Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with the Owner Trustee.

Any separate trustee or co-owner trustee may at any time appoint the Owner Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any owner trustee or co-owner trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Owner Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

This Certificate does not represent an obligation of or interest in First Horizon Asset Securities, Inc.

The First Horizon ABS Trust 20[__]-[__] was created pursuant to a Trust Agreement, dated as of [__________], 20[__] among First Tennessee Bank National Association, as seller, the Depositor and [__________], as trustee (the “Owner Trustee”), as amended and restated by an Amended and Restated Trust Agreement, dated as of [__________], 20[__], among First Tennessee Bank National Association, as seller, the Depositor and the Owner Trustee (the “Agreement”) a summary of some of the pertinent provisions of which follows. Capitalized terms used in this Certificate without definition have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the Agreement. The holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance of it agrees to be bound by the Agreement.

This Certificate evidences the Transferor Interest from the duly authorized issue of the Certificate designated as First Horizon ABS Trust 20[__]-[__] Transferor Interest, representing, to the extent specified in the Agreement, an undivided interest in:

(i)

each Mortgage Loan and the related Mortgage File, including its Principal Balance (including all Additional Balances resulting from Draws made pursuant to the related Mortgage Note prior to the termination of the Trust) and all collections in respect of interest and principal received after the Cut-off Date;

property that secured a Mortgage Loan that has become REO Property;

the Insurance Policy and the proceeds of any draw thereunder;

(vii)

any proceeds of any of the foregoing (i) through (vi); and

(viii)

all other assets included or to be included in the Trust (collectively, the “Trust Estate”).

A first priority security interest in all the Trust Estate has been granted to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture.

The Transferor, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the funds available under the Agreement for payment of this Certificate and that the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity is not personally liable to the Transferor 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 and obligations evidenced by this Certificate, and the rights and obligations of the Owner Trustee.

The Agreement may be amended by the Depositor, the Seller and the Owner Trustee with prior written notice to the Rating Agencies and the Indenture Trustee and with the consent of the Insurer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but without the consent of any of the Noteholders, the Transferor or the Indenture Trustee, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions in this Agreement or for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions in this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Transferor; provided, however, that such action shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder, the Transferor or the Insurer. The Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Seller, the Depositor and the Owner Trustee, with the prior written consent of the Rating Agencies, the Insurer and the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders evidencing more than 50% of the Percentage Interests in the Notes and the Transferor, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Transferor, subject to the limitations set forth in the Agreement.

No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with the Act and those laws. In connection with any transfer of this Certificate, the Registrar will require that each Prospective Transferor, other than a Prospective Transferor of an affiliate of the Depositor, either:

(i)

the transferee to execute an investment letter acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Registrar certifying to the Owner Trustee the facts surrounding the transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of the Owner Trustee; or

(ii)

an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Registrar that the transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Act, describing the applicable exemption and its basis, or is being made pursuant to the Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Registrar or the Depositor.

In connection with any transfer of this Certificate, the holder transferring this Certificate shall indemnify the Trust against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with any federal and state laws.

Neither this Certificate nor any legal or beneficial interest in it may be, directly or indirectly, purchased, transferred, sold, pledged, assigned, or otherwise disposed of, and any proposed transferee of this Certificate shall not become its registered Holder, unless the conditions in Section 3.13 of the Agreement are satisfied.

No service charge shall be made for the registration of transfer or exchange of this Certificate, but the Owner Trustee or the Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of this Certificate.

The Owner Trustee, the Registrar, and any Paying Agent will treat the person in whose name this Certificate is registered in the Transferor Interest Register as its owner for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.2 of the Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Registrar, and any Paying Agent shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.

The obligations created by the Agreement will terminate and this Certificate will be retired and the Trust will be dissolved when the final distribution from the Trust Estate is made resulting in the Trust having no further assets. Pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer may effect the transfer of all the Mortgage Loans at their termination purchase price on any Payment Date from the Payment Date immediately before which the Class A Note Principal Balance is less than or equal to 10% of the Original Class A Note Principal Balance. This transfer will result in the termination of the Agreement and the dissolution of the Trust.

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