PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

(Terms used but not defined in this Preliminary

Statement shall have the meanings

specified in Article I hereof)

The Depositor intends to sell pass-through certificates to be issued hereunder in multiple classes which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund consisting primarily of the Mortgage Loans. As provided herein, the Certificate Administrator will elect that two segregated portions of the Trust Fund (other than the Class A-S Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Class B Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Excess Interest Grantor Trust Assets, the Class C Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Class PEZ Specific Grantor Trust Assets and the proceeds of the foregoing) be treated for federal income tax purposes as two separate REMICs (designated as the “Upper-Tier REMIC” and the “Lower-Tier REMIC”, respectively). The Regular Certificates and the Class PEZ Regular Interests will represent “regular interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC, and the Upper-Tier Residual Interest will be the sole class of “residual interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC.

There are also (i) 13 classes of uncertificated Lower-Tier Regular Interests issued under this Agreement (designated as the Class XX-0, Xxxxx XX-0, Class LA-3, Class LA-4, Class LA-AB, Class LA-S, Class LB, Class LC, Class LD, Class LE, Class LF, Class LG and Class LH Interests), each of which will constitute a class of “regular interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC, and (ii) the Lower-Tier Residual Interest, which will be the sole class of “residual interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC.

The Lower-Tier Regular Interests will be held by the Trustee as assets of the Upper-Tier REMIC. The Class R Certificates will represent both the Lower-Tier Residual Interest and the Upper-Tier Residual Interest.

The parties intend that (i) the portion of the Trust Fund representing the Class A-S Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Class B Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Class C Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Class PEZ Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Excess Interest Grantor Trust Assets and the proceeds of the foregoing will be treated as assets of a grantor trust under subpart E of Part I of subchapter J of the Code and (ii) the beneficial interests in such grantor trust will be represented by the Class A-S Certificates, the Class B Certificates, the Class C Certificates, the Class PEZ Certificates and the Excess Interest Certificates.

UPPER-TIER REMIC

The following table sets forth the Class designation, the approximate initial pass-through rate and the aggregate initial principal amount (the “Original Certificate Principal Amount”) or, in the case of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates, notional amount (the “Original Notional Amount”), as applicable, for each Class of Certificates and each Class PEZ Regular Interest comprising or evidencing the interests in the Upper-Tier REMIC created hereunder:

(1)	The interest rate of each Lower-Tier Regular Interest is the WAC Rate.

(2)	The Corresponding Lower-Tier Regular Interest and Corresponding Component with respect to any Class of Regular Certificates or any Class PEZ Regular Interest are also the Corresponding Lower-Tier Regular Interest and Corresponding Component with respect to each other.

GRANTOR TRUST

The portions of the Trust Fund consisting of the Class A-S Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Class B Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Class C Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Class PEZ Specific Grantor Trust Assets and the Excess Interest Grantor Trust Assets shall be treated as a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code (the “Grantor Trust”) for federal income tax purposes. The Class A-S Certificates shall represent undivided beneficial interests in the portion of the Grantor Trust consisting of the Class A-S Specific Grantor Trust Assets. The Class B Certificates shall represent undivided beneficial interests in the portion of the Grantor Trust consisting of the Class B Specific Grantor Trust Assets. The Class PEZ Certificates shall represent undivided beneficial interests in the portion of the Grantor Trust consisting of the Class PEZ Specific Grantor Trust Assets. The Class C Certificates shall represent undivided beneficial interests in the portion of the Grantor Trust consisting of the Class C Specific Grantor Trust Assets. The Excess Interest Certificates shall represent undivided beneficial interests in the portion of the Grantor Trust consisting of the Excess Interest Grantor Trust Assets. As provided herein, the Certificate Administrator shall not take any actions that

-3-

would cause the Grantor Trust to either (i) lose its status as a “grantor trust” or (ii) be treated as part of either Trust REMIC.

The following table sets forth the Class designation, the approximate initial Pass-Through Rate and the Original Certificate Principal Amount for each Class of Exchangeable Certificates representing a beneficial ownership interest in one or more of the Class PEZ Regular Interests:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Appraisal is required to be obtained in accordance with Section 3.10(a) of this Agreement but is not obtained within 120 days following the events described in the applicable clause of the definition “Appraisal Reduction Event” (without regard to the time periods stated therein), then, until such Appraisal is obtained and solely for purposes of determining the amounts of P&I Advances, the Appraisal Reduction Amount for or allocable to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan will equal 25% of the Stated Principal Balance of such related Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided that, upon receipt of an Appraisal, however, the Appraisal Reduction Amount for such Serviced Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Loan Combination) will be recalculated in accordance with this definition without regard to this sentence.

Based upon such Appraisal or letter updates thereto, the Special Servicer shall determine and report to the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator the Appraisal Reduction Amount, if any, with respect to such Serviced Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Loan Combination), and each of those parties shall be entitled to rely conclusively on such determination by the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer

shall deliver a copy of any such Appraisal to the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, which shall be in electronic format. Each Appraisal Reduction Amount shall also be adjusted with respect to the next Distribution Date to take into account any subsequent Appraisal and annual letter updates, as of the date of each such subsequent Appraisal or letter update.

Upon payment in full or liquidation of any Serviced Loan for which an Appraisal Reduction Amount has been determined, such Appraisal Reduction Amount will be eliminated. In addition, with respect to any Serviced Loan, as to which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred, such Serviced Loan shall no longer be subject to the Appraisal Reduction Amount if (a) such Serviced Loan has become a Corrected Loan (if a Servicing Transfer Event had occurred with respect to the related Serviced Loan) and such Serviced Loan becomes and remains current for three consecutive Monthly Payments and (b) no other Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred and is continuing.

Appraisal Reduction Amounts with respect to each Serviced Loan Combination shall be allocated, first, to any related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan (up to the outstanding principal balance thereof), and then, to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s) on a pro rata and pari passu basis in accordance with the respective outstanding principal balances of such Serviced Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan.

By their acceptance of their Certificates, the Certificateholders shall be deemed to have acknowledged that the applicable Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and the related Co-Lender Agreement taken together, provide that any such “Appraisal Reduction Amount” will be calculated under the applicable Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the applicable party thereto.

If an Appraisal Reduction Event occurs with respect to any Serviced Mortgage Loan that is part of a Serviced Loan Combination, then an Appraisal Reduction Event shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to the related Serviced Companion Loan(s). If an Appraisal Reduction Event occurs with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan that is part of a Serviced Loan Combination, then an Appraisal Reduction Event shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan and any other Serviced Companion Loan(s) included as part of that Serviced Loan Combination. No Appraisal Reduction Event may occur at any time when the aggregate Certificate Principal Amount of all Classes of Principal Balance Certificates (other than the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4 and Class A-AB Certificates) has been reduced to zero.
