Certificate Interest Rate of the Class S Certificate: % 0.35544786 ----------- *It has been the Company's experience that, with respect to the first Distribution Date after the closing of a securitization containing a large number of recently originated or acquired Mortgage Loans, the number of Mortgage Loans 30-59 days delinquent may be inflated due to the borrowers sending monthly payments to the wrong location or delays by the Company in inputting the Mortgage Loans on its servicing system. It has also been the Company's experience that for the majority of such Mortgage Loans the routing of borrowers' monthly payments has corrected itself by the second Distribution Date. However, the Company makes no assurances as to the level of delinquent Mortgage Loans for future Distribution Dates.
