                    RECONSTITUTIONS; REGULATION AB COMPLIANCE

               SECTION 8.1 RECONSTITUTIONS; SERVICER'S PURCHASE RIGHT

               (a) Upon 15 days prior written notice to the Servicer and subject
          to the terms and conditions in Article 6 of the Purchase Agreement,
          the Owner may, at its sole option, effect one or more Whole Loan
          Transfers or Securitization Transactions with respect to some or all
          of the Mortgage Loans (each, a "Permitted Reconstitution"). In
          connection with any Permitted Reconstitution, the Owner, in its sole
          discretion, may assign its rights under this Agreement with respect to
          the Mortgage Loans subject to such Permitted Reconstitution, and the
          Servicer shall service the affected Mortgage Loans as the servicer, or
          as subservicer, if a master servicer is employed as provided in clause
          (iii) of Section 8.2, on the terms and conditions set forth herein and
          in any related Reconstitution Agreement.

               (b) The Owner shall reimburse the Servicer for all reasonable
          out-of-pocket expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by the
          Servicer in connection with any Reconstitution.

               (c) With respect to any Permitted Reconstitution, the Servicer
          shall (i) provide the Owner with information and appropriate
          verification of information in its possession or control as may
          reasonably be necessary in order to effect such Reconstitution (and,
          to the extent any such information is in the possession or control of
          any third party, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such
          third party to provide such information) and (ii) cooperate with all
          reasonable requests and due diligence procedures not otherwise
          addressed herein. In addition, upon the request of the Owner, the
          Servicer shall provide, (x) in connection with each Permitted
          Reconstitution, an officer's certificate to the effect that the
          representations and warranties made by the Servicer in Section 5.7 are
          true and correct as of the date of such certificate, provided that
          nothing has occurred during the period commencing on the applicable
          Closing Date and ending on the date of such certificate which would
          make such representations and warranties untrue and (y) in connection
          with each Permitted Reconstitution in which twenty percent or more of
          the mortgage loans in the related transaction or in any one loan group
          in such transaction consists of Mortgage Loans, an opinion of counsel
          as to


                                        4



          the Servicer's corporate authority and the enforceability of the
          related Reconstitution Agreement.

               (d) If, at any time, either (i) the aggregate Unpaid Principal
          Balance of any pool of Mortgage Loans that are transferred pursuant to
          a Whole Loan Transfer ("Transferred Loans") is less than or equal to
          one percent (1%) of the Unpaid Principal Balance of such Transferred
          Loans on the date of such Whole Loan Transfer, or (ii) the aggregate
          Unpaid Principal Balance of any Mortgage Loans serviced hereunder and
          retained by the Owner ("Portfolio Loans") is less than or equal to one
          percent (1%) of the Unpaid Principal Balance of such Portfolio Loans
          on the date of purchase from the applicable Seller, the Servicer may
          elect, in its sole discretion, to purchase such Transferred Loans or
          Portfolio Loans, as the case may be. The purchase price of Mortgage
          Loans purchased by the Servicer pursuant to this Section 8.1(d) shall
          equal the aggregate Unpaid Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loans,
          plus the amount of interest on such Unpaid Principal Balance at the
          applicable Net Rate from the date to which interest has last been paid
          and distributed to the Owner to, and including, the last day of the
          month in which such purchase occurs; provided that the Servicer may
          exercise this purchase right only if the fair market value of the
          relevant Mortgage Loans is greater than or equal to the Unpaid
          Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase.

               SECTION 8.2 RECONSTITUTION AGREEMENTS

               In connection with each Permitted Reconstitution, the Servicer
          shall:

                    (a) execute and deliver a Reconstitution Agreement
          containing terms and conditions that are consistent with the terms and
          conditions set forth herein and in the Purchase Agreement and, in the
          case of a Securitization Transaction, that are customary for publicly
          offered or privately placed, rated or unrated securities backed by
          mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage Loans included in such
          Securitization Transaction, provided that (i) any servicing reporting
          requirements must be consistent with the standard practices of the
          Servicer; and (ii) such Reconstitution Agreement does not expand in
          any material respect any of the obligations, duties or liabilities of
          the Servicer under this Agreement or result in any increased cost to
          the Servicer;

                    (b) with respect to any Securitization Transaction in which
          twenty percent or more of the mortgage loans in the entire related
          transaction consist of Mortgage Loans, (i) execute and deliver a
          pooling and servicing agreement that meets the requirements of clause
          (a) above, provided that each of the parties to such pooling and
          servicing agreement negotiates in good faith any terms or conditions
          in such pooling and servicing agreement not specifically referenced or
          provided for under this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement; and (ii)
          provide the Owner with opinions of counsel as to the Servicer's
          corporate authority and the enforceability of the pooling and
          servicing agreement against


                                        5



          the Servicer and certificates from public officials, each as the
          Servicer shall reasonably determine to be necessary to effect such
          Securitization Transaction; and

                    (c) in the event the Owner or its assignee elects to appoint
          and designate a master servicer of Mortgage Loans pursuant to a
          Reconstitution Agreement, (i) the Servicer shall service the Mortgage
          Loans, and remit and report to the master servicer, in accordance with
          the terms of this Agreement and the related Reconstitution Agreement;
          (ii) the master servicer shall have the right as designee of the Owner
          to enforce the covenants and conditions set forth in, and to give any
          waivers or consents required or allowed under, this Agreement on
          behalf of the Owner; and (iii) the Servicer shall follow and shall be
          entitled to rely on the instructions and any waiver or consents of the
          master servicer under this Agreement as if such instructions were the
          instructions of the Owner.

               SECTION 8.3 INTENT OF THE PARTIES; REASONABLENESS

               The Owner and the Servicer acknowledge and agree that the purpose
          of Sections 8.4, 8.5, 8.6, 8.7, 8.8 and 8.9 is to facilitate
          compliance by the Owner and any Depositor with the provisions of
          Regulation AB and related rules and regulations of the Commission.
          Although Regulation AB is applicable by its terms only to offerings of
          asset-backed securities that are registered under the Securities Act,
          the Company acknowledges that investors in privately offered
          securities may require that the Purchaser and any Depositor provide
          comparable disclosure in unregistered offerings. References in this
          Agreement to compliance with Regulation AB include provision of
          comparable disclosure in private offerings.

               Neither the Owner nor any Depositor shall exercise its right to
          request delivery of information or other performance under these
          provisions other than in good faith, or for purposes other than
          compliance with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and
          regulations of the Commission thereunder (or the provision in a
          private offering of disclosure comparable to that required under the
          Securities Act). The Servicer acknowledges that interpretations of the
          requirements of Regulation AB may change over time, whether due to
          interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its staff,
          consensus among participants in the asset-backed securities markets,
          advice of counsel, or otherwise, and agrees to comply with requests
          made by the Owner, the Master Servicer or any Depositor in good faith
          for delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of
          evolving interpretations of Regulation AB. Each party agrees that it
          shall cooperate in good faith to amend this Amendment and/or the
          Original Servicing Agreement in light of any changes in the
          interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB over time,
          whether due to interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its
          staff, consensus among participants in the asset-backed securities
          markets, advice of counsel, or otherwise. In connection with any
          Securitization Transaction, the Servicer shall cooperate fully with
          the Owner and


                                        6



          the Master Servicer to deliver to the Owner (including any of its
          assignees or designees), the Master Servicer and any Depositor, any
          and all statements, reports, certifications, records and any other
          information necessary in the good faith determination of the Owner,
          the Master Servicer or any Depositor to permit the Owner, the Master
          Servicer or such Depositor to comply with the provisions of Regulation
          AB, together with such disclosures relating to the Servicer, any
          Subservicer, any Third-Party Originator and the Mortgage Loans, or the
          servicing of the Mortgage Loans, reasonably believed by the Owner or
          any Depositor to be necessary in order to effect such compliance.

               The Owner (including any of its assignees or designees) shall
          cooperate with the Company by providing timely notice of requests for
          information under these provisions and by reasonably limiting such
          requests to information required, in the Owner's reasonable judgment,
          to comply with Regulation AB.

               SECTION 8.4 ADDITIONAL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE
          SERVICER

               (a) The Servicer shall be deemed to represent to the Owner and to
          any Depositor, as of the date on which information is first provided
          to the Owner or such Depositor under Section 8.5 for a Permitted
          Reconstitution that, except as disclosed in writing to the Owner or
          such Depositor, as applicable, prior to such date: (i) the Servicer is
          not aware and has not received notice that any default, early
          amortization or other performance triggering event has occurred as to
          any other securitization due to any act or failure to act of the
          Servicer; (ii) the Servicer has not been terminated as servicer in a
          residential mortgage loan securitization, either due to a servicing
          default or to application of a servicing performance test or trigger;

          with respect to other securitizations of residential mortgage loans
          involving the Servicer as servicer has been disclosed or reported by
          the Servicer; (iv) no material changes to the Servicer's policies or
          procedures with respect to the servicing function it will perform
          under this Agreement and any Reconstitution Agreement for mortgage
          loans of a type similar to the Mortgage Loans have occurred during the
          three-year period immediately preceding the related Securitization
          Transaction; (v) there are no aspects of the Servicer's financial
          condition that could have a material adverse effect on the performance
          by the Servicer of its servicing obligations under this Agreement or
          any Reconstitution Agreement; (vi) there are no material legal or
          governmental proceedings pending (or known to be contemplated) against
          the Servicer, any Subservicer or any Third-Party Originator; and (vii)
          there are no affiliations, relationships or transactions relating to
          the Servicer, any Subservicer or any Third-Party Originator with
          respect to any Securitization Transaction and any party thereto
          identified by the related Depositor of a type described in Item 1119
          of Regulation AB (other than the affiliation between the Servicer and
          the Sellers).


                                        7



               (b) If so requested by the Owner, the Master Servicer or any
          Depositor on any date following the date on which information is first
          provided to the Owner or any Depositor under Section 8.5, the Servicer
          shall, within five Business Days following such request, confirm in
          writing the accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth
          in Section 8.4(a) or, if any such representation and warranty is not
          accurate as of the date of such request, provide reasonably adequate
          disclosure of the pertinent facts, in writing, to the requesting
          party.

               SECTION 8.5 INFORMATION TO BE PROVIDED BY THE SERVICER

               In connection with any Securitization Transaction that is a
          Permitted Reconstitution, the Servicer shall (x) within five Business

          Master Servicer and any Depositor an assessment of compliance and
          accountants' attestation as and when provided in paragraphs (i) and

          as and when required to be delivered.

               (b) It shall not be necessary for the Servicer to seek the

          request provide to the Owner, the Master Servicer and any Depositor
          (or any designee of the Depositor, such as an administrator) a written
          description (in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner, the
          Master Servicer and such Depositor) of the role and function of each
          Subcontractor utilized by the Servicer or any Subservicer, specifying
          (i) the identity of each such Subcontractor, (ii) which (if any) of

          Item 1122 of Regulation AB, the Servicer shall cause any such

          benefit of the Owner and any Depositor to comply with the provisions
          of Sections 8.7 and 8.9 of this Agreement to the same extent as if
          such Subcontractor were the Servicer. The Servicer shall be
          responsible for obtaining from each Subcontractor and delivering to
          the Owner and any Depositor any assessment of compliance and
          attestation and the other certifications required to be delivered by

          unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless any Indemnitee, then the
          Servicer agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable
          by the Indemnitee as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
          liabilities of the Indemnitee arising out of clauses (i), (ii) or
          (iii) of the preceding sentence in such proportion as is appropriate
          to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnitee on the one hand and
          the Servicer on the other.

               For purposes of this Section 8.9(b), "third party claims" shall
          include claims brought against an Indemnitee by any agent or affiliate
          of such Indemnitee where such claims arise out of, or are based on,
          (A) the failure of the Servicer to deliver or cause to be delivered
          when required any information, report, certification, accountants'
          letter or other material when and as required pursuant to Section 8.6
          or Section 8.7 or any failure by the Servicer to identify pursuant to
          Section 8.8(b) any Subcontractor "participating in the servicing
          function" within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, (B) any
          material misstatement or omission in any Sarbanes Certification made
          in reliance on any material misstatement or omission contained in any
          officer's certificate provided pursuant to Section 8.6 or Section
          8.7(a)(iv), (C) any material misstatement or omission contained in the
          assessment of compliance delivered in accordance with Section
          8.7(a)(i) or (D) any material misstatement or omission contained in
          any information provided by the Servicer, any Subservicer or any
          Subcontractor pursuant to Section 8.4(b) or Section 8.5(b) or (d).

               If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or
          insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Party, then the Servicer
          agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
          Indemnified Party as a result of any claims, losses, damages or
          liabilities incurred by such Indemnified Party in


                                       15



     such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such
     Indemnified Party on the one hand and the Servicer on the other.

          In the case of any failure of performance described in clause (i) of
     this Section 8.9(b), the Servicer shall promptly reimburse the Owner, any
     Depositor, as applicable, and each Person responsible for the preparation,
     execution or filing of any report required to be filed with the Commission
     with respect to such Securitization Transaction, or for execution of a
     certification pursuant to Rule 13a-14(d) or Rule 15d-14(d) under the
     Exchange Act with respect to such Securitization Transaction, for all costs
     reasonably incurred by each such party in order to obtain the information,
     report, certification, accountants' letter or other material not delivered
     as required by the Servicer, any Subservicer or Subcontractor.

          This indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement
     or the termination of any party to this Agreement.

          (c) (i) Any failure by the Servicer, any Subservicer or Subcontractor
     to deliver any information, report, certification, accountants' letter or
     other material when and as required under this Article, or any breach by
     the Servicer of a representation or warranty set forth in Section 8.4(a) or
     in a writing furnished pursuant to Section 8.4(b) and made as of a date
     prior to the closing date of the related Securitization Transaction, to the
     extent that such failure or breach is not cured by such closing date, or
     any breach by the Servicer of a representation or warranty in a writing
     furnished pursuant to Section 8.4(b) to the extent made as of a date
     subsequent to such closing date, shall, except as provided in clause (ii)
     of this Section 8.9(c), immediately and automatically, without notice or
     grace period, constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Servicer
     under this Agreement and any applicable Reconstitution Agreement, and shall
     entitle the Owner or Depositor, as applicable, in its sole discretion to
     terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer as servicer under this
     Agreement and/or any applicable Reconstitution Agreement without payment
     (notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any applicable
     Reconstitution Agreement to the contrary) of any compensation to the
     Servicer (and, if the Company is servicing any of the Mortgage Loans in a
     Securitization Transaction, appoint a successor servicer reasonably
     acceptable to any Master Servicer for such Securitization Transaction);
     provided that to the extent that any provision of this Agreement and/or any
     applicable Reconstitution Agreement expressly provides for the survival of
     certain rights or obligations following termination of the Servicer as
     servicer, such provision shall be given effect.

               (ii) Any failure by the Servicer, any Subservicer or any
     Subcontractor to deliver any information, report, certification or
     accountants' letter when and as required under Section 8.6 or 8.7,
     including (except as provided below) any failure by the Servicer to
     identify pursuant to Section 8.8(b) any Subcontractor "participating in the
     servicing function" within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, which
     continues


                                       16



     unremedied for five calendar days after the date on which such information,
     report, certification or accountants' letter was required shall constitute
     an Event of Default with respect to the Servicer under this Agreement and
     any applicable Reconstitution Agreement, and shall entitle the Owner or
     Depositor, as applicable, in its sole discretion, upon notice to the
     Servicer as provided in Section 6.1, to terminate the rights and
     obligations of the Servicer as servicer under this Agreement and/or any
     applicable Reconstitution Agreement without payment (notwithstanding
     anything in this Agreement to the contrary) of any compensation to the
     Servicer; provided that to the extent that any provision of this Agreement
     and/or any applicable Reconstitution Agreement expressly provides for the
     survival of certain rights or obligations following termination of the
     Servicer as servicer, such provision shall be given effect. Notwithstanding
     the foregoing, in the event that the Servicer (or any applicable
     Subservicer or Subcontractor) delivers any missing information, report,
     certification or accountants' letter, following the expiration of the five
     calendar day cure period provided in the preceding sentence, and the Master
     Servicer or Depositor, as the case may be, despite such late delivery,
     files the related annual report on Form 10-K on time without having to file
     a Form 12b-25 related to a notification of an inability to make a timely
     Exchange Act report filing and the Servicer indemnifies and promptly
     reimburses the Master Servicer and Depositor pursuant to Section 8.9(b) for
     all costs and expenses incurred as a result of such delay, any notice given
     by the Master Servicer declaring an Event of Default shall be automatically
     revoked and the delay in providing the missing information, report,
     certification or accountants' letter shall cease to constitute an Event of
     Default.

          Neither the Owner nor any Depositor shall be entitled to terminate the
     rights and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to this subparagraph
     (c)(ii) if a failure of the Servicer to identify a Subcontractor
     "participating in the servicing function" within the meaning of Item 1122
     of Regulation AB was attributable solely to the role or functions of such
     Subcontractor with respect to mortgage loans other than the Mortgage Loans.

               (iii) The Servicer shall promptly reimburse the Owner (or any
     designee of the Owner, such as a master servicer) and any Depositor, as
     applicable, for all reasonable expenses incurred by the Owner (or such
     designee) or such Depositor as such are incurred, in connection with the
     termination of the Servicer as servicer and the transfer of servicing of
     the Mortgage Loans to a successor servicer. The provisions of this
     paragraph shall not limit whatever rights the Owner or any Depositor may
     have under other provisions of this Agreement and/or any applicable
     Reconstitution Agreement or otherwise, whether in equity or at law, such as
     an action for damages, specific performance or injunctive relief.

          SECTION 8.10 THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY

          For purposes of Sections 8.3, 8.4(b), 8.5(b), (c) and (d), 8.6, 8.7,
     8.8 and 8.9 and any related provisions, the Master Servicer shall be
     considered a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement, entitled to all the
     rights and benefits of the foregoing provisions as if it were a direct
     party to this Agreement.

material fact contained in the Disclosure Document relating to the Securities or

subject to the conditions provided herein, to indemnify and hold harmless each
Washington Mutual Indemnified Party, against any Losses to which such Washington
Mutual Indemnified Party may become subject, under the 1933 Act or otherwise,
insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based upon (a) any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Disclosure
Document relating to the Securities or (b) the omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were

only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or
such omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity
with the Underwriter Information. Each Underwriter's liability under this
Agreement shall be in addition to any other liability the Underwriter may

     (e) With respect to each claim for indemnification made hereunder, the
Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing, giving notice
of the nature of the claim, within a reasonable time after service of a summons
or other first legal process that shall have been served upon such Indemnified
Party, but failure to notify the Indemnifying Party of any such claim shall not
relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which it may have to the
Indemnified Party (i) on account of the indemnity contained in this Agreement,
except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been materially prejudiced
by such failure, or (ii) otherwise than on account of the indemnity contained in
this Agreement.

     (f) The Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate at its own
expense in the defense or, if the Indemnifying Party so elects, to assume the
defense of any suit brought to enforce any such liability, but if the
Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense, such defense shall be conducted
by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. In the event the
Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of any such suit and retain such
counsel, the Indemnified Party or persons, defendant or defendants in the suit,
may retain additional counsel but shall bear the fees and expenses of such
counsel unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party shall have agreed to the retention of
such counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party; or (2) the named parties
to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the
Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party
reasonably determines that representation of both by the same counsel would be
inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is
understood that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any
proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the
fees and expenses of more than one counsel (separate from its own counsel) for
the Indemnified Party.

     (g) The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to indemnify any Person for
any settlement of any claim effected without the Indemnifying Party's written
consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action,
the Indemnifying Party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any Indemnified
Party from and against any Loss by reason of such settlement or judgment. The
Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of an
Indemnified Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, effect any
settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which such
Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity is or could have
been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party unless such settlement (i)
includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all


                                      G-4



liability on any claims that are the subject of such action and (ii) does not
include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or failure to
act by or on behalf of an Indemnified Party.

     (h) If the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is determined to
be insufficient or unavailable to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses,
then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying the Indemnified Party,
shall contribute to the Losses incurred by the Indemnified Party in such
proportion as is appropriate equally to reflect (1) the relative fault and
benefits of (a) the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and (b) the Indemnified
Party on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which
resulted in such Losses (or actions in respect thereof) as well as (2) any other
relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of each Indemnifying
Party, on the one hand, and of each Indemnified Party, on the other, shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged
untrue statement of material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact relates to information supplied by, or action within the control
of, such Indemnifying Party or such Indemnified Party and the parties' relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission. The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party
agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by
pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take
account of the equitable considerations referred to above.

     (i) No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of

mailed or delivered to the other parties as aforesaid. All such notices and

SECTION 4. MISCELLANEOUS.

          (a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to
the conflict of laws provisions thereof, other than Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402
of the New York General Obligations Law).

          (b) Assignments. This Agreement may not be assigned by any party
without the express written consent of each other party. Any assignment made in
violation of this Agreement shall be null and void.


                                      G-6



          (c) Amendments. Amendments of this Agreement shall be in writing
signed by each party hereto.

          (d) Survival, Etc. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained
in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect,
regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnified
Party, (ii) the issuance of the Securities or (iii) any termination of this
Agreement.

          (e) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts by
the parties to this Agreement, and all such counterparts shall constitute one
and the same instrument.

          (f) Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement
shall be held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction,
the parties hereto agree that such holding shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable any other provision hereof. The parties hereto further agree that
the holding by any court of competent jurisdiction that any remedy pursued by
any party hereto is unavailable or unenforceable shall not affect in any way the
ability of such party to pursue any other remedy available to it.

          (g) Headings. The headings of Sections contained in this Agreement are
provided for convenience only. They form no part of this Agreement and shall not
affect its construction or interpretation. Unless otherwise indicated, all
references to Sections in this Agreement refer to the corresponding Sections of
this Agreement.

          (h) Trial by Jury Waived. Each party hereby waives, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, any right to a trial by jury in respect of any
litigation arising directly or indirectly out of, under or in connection with
this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated thereunder. Each party
hereto (A) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any party
hereto has represented, expressly or otherwise, that it would not, in the event
of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (B) acknowledges that it
has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, this
waiver.

          (i) Limited Liability. No recourse under this Agreement shall be had
against, and no personal liability shall attach to, any officer, employee,
director, affiliate or shareholder of any party hereto, as such, by the
enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue
of any statute or otherwise in respect hereof, it being expressly agreed and
understood that this Agreement is solely a corporate obligation of each party
hereto, and that any and all personal liability, either at common law or in
equity, or by statute or constitution, of every such officer, employee,
director, affiliate or shareholder for breaches of any party hereto of any
obligations hereunder is hereby expressly waived as a condition of and in
consideration for the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

          (j) The Controlling Person of any Indemnified Party shall be an
intended third-party beneficiary of this Agreement; provided, however, that any
Controlling Person shall appoint its related Indemnified Party as its exclusive
agent for, on behalf of, and in the name of such Controlling Person, to exercise
any and all rights of such Controlling Person under this Agreement, without
prejudice to the right of any Controlling Party to retain additional counsel at
its own expense, as provided in this Agreement. In no event, however, will an
Indemnifying Party be required to bear the expense of such additional counsel on
the grounds that


                                      G-7



representation of both the Indemnified Party and its related Controlling Person
by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing
interests between them.

          (k) Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement
between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and
replaces any agreement or understanding that may have existed between the
parties prior to the date hereof in respect of such subject matter.
