Minimum Denominations
Unless otherwise noted in the applicable Offering Circular Supplement, each Trust and MX Trust will issue
Regular Securities and MX and/or Modifiable Securities, respectively (other than Securities of Increased Minimum
Denomination Classes), in minimum dollar denominations representing initial principal balances of $1,000 and
integral multiples of $1 in excess of $1,000. Unless otherwise noted in the applicable Offering Circular Supplement,
Residual Securities will be issued in minimum Percentage Interests of 10% and integral multiples of 10%.
An Offering Circular Supplement may identify one or more Increased Minimum Denomination Classes, as
described in the Offering Circular Supplement.
An Increased Minimum Denomination Class is a Class that is deemed to be a suitable investment only for
an institutional Accredited Investor that has substantial experience in mortgage-backed securities and that is capable
of understanding, and is able to bear, the risks associated with an investment in a Class such as an Increased
Minimum Denomination Class.
An investor should not conclude, however, that Classes not designated as Increased Minimum
Denomination Classes are suitable for all investors. No investor should purchase Securities of any Class unless the
investor understands, and is able to bear, the risks associated with that Class.
Standard Definitions and Abbreviations for Classes and Components
Classes of Securities (as well as Components of such Classes) are categorized according to Principal
Types, Interest Types and Other Types. The chart attached as Appendix I identifies the standard abbreviations
for most of these categories. Definitions of Class Types may be found in Appendix II. The first column of the chart
shows the standard abbreviation for each Class Type. Each Offering Circular Supplement will identify the category
of Classes of the related Securities (and the related Terms Sheet will identify the category of any related
Components) by means of one or more of these abbreviations.
Distributions
Each month, the Trustee for a Series shall calculate the amount of principal and interest distributable on the
Securities on the Distribution Date. The Distribution Amount for each Series (or, if the Series is segregated into
Security Groups, for each Security Group) for any Distribution Date for the related Series (or Security Group) will
equal the sum of the Principal Distribution Amount (less principal, if any, payable to the Trustee as described in the
Offering Circular Supplement), the Accrual Amount, if any, and the Interest Distribution Amount for the related
Series (or Security Group).
In the case of Trust MBS, the Trustee will determine the amount of principal expected to be received on
each Trust MBS during that month on the basis of Certificate Factors for those Trust MBS for that month. The
Trustee will obtain the Certificate Factors from the Information Agent on the seventh Business Day of the month in
the case of Ginnie Mae I Certificates or on the eighth Business Day of the month in the case of Ginnie Mae II
Certificates (the Certificate Factor Date). For any Trust MBS for which a Certificate Factor is not available on the
Certificate Factor Date, the Trustee will determine a Calculated Certificate Factor.
In the case of Underlying Certificates, the Trustee will determine the amount of principal expected to be
received on each Underlying Certificate during that month on the basis of Underlying Certificate Factors for those
Underlying Certificates for that month. The Trustee will obtain the Underlying Certificate Factors in accordance
with the related Trust Agreement. In the event that an Underlying Certificate Factor is not available on the date
specified in the related Trust Agreement, no amounts in respect of principal for the related Underlying Certificate
will be distributable to the related Securities on the following Distribution Date.
The Class Factors for each Distribution Date will reflect the Certificate Factors and/or the Calculated
Certificate Factors for that month (or, in the case of Underlying Certificates, the amount of principal distributable
thereon on the preceding Underlying Certificate Payment Date). Amounts calculated by the Trustee based on the
