Noteholder by the Code.

each case in proportion to the percentage of the Principal  Collections  derived
from the related Loan Group with respect to such  Payment  Date,  until the Note
Balances  of the Class A-I Group or the Class A-II  Group have  reduced to zero.

Section 3.29 Replacement Enhancement. The Issuer (or the Servicer on its behalf)
may, at its expense,  in accordance with and upon satisfaction of the conditions
set forth herein,  but shall not be required to, obtain a surety bond, letter of
credit,  guaranty or reserve  account as a Permitted  Investment  for amounts on
deposit in the Capitalized  Interest Account,  or may arrange for any other form
of additional credit enhancement;  provided, that after prior notice thereto, no

that the  procurement  of such  additional  enhancement  would not (i) adversely
affect in any material  respect the tax status of the Notes or the  Certificates
or (ii) cause the Issuer to be taxable as an association  (or a publicly  traded
partnership)  for federal  income tax purposes or to be  classified as a taxable
mortgage pool within the meaning of Section 7701(i) of the Code.                

ARTICLE IV

              The Notes; Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture

Section 4.01 The Notes;.  The Notes shall be registered in the name of a nominee
designated by the Depository. Beneficial Owners will hold interests in the Notes
through the  book-entry  facilities of the  Depository  in minimum  initial Note
Balances of $25,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof,  for the
Class A Notes and Class M-1 Notes, and minimum initial Note Balances of $250,000
and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof,  for the Class M-2 Notes and
Class B Notes.                                                                  

        The  Indenture  Trustee may for all  purposes  (including  the making of
payments  due  on  the  Notes)  deal  with  the  Depository  as  the  authorized
representative  of the  Beneficial  Owners  with  respect  to the  Notes for the
purposes of exercising the rights of Noteholders  hereunder.  Except as provided
in the next succeeding  paragraph of this Section 4.01, the rights of Beneficial
Owners with  respect to the Notes shall be limited to those  established  by law
and agreements  between such Beneficial Owners and the Depository and Depository
Participants. Except as provided in Section 4.08, Beneficial Owners shall not be
entitled  to  definitive  certificates  for the  Notes as to which  they are the
Beneficial Owners. Requests and directions from, and votes of, the Depository as
Noteholder of the Notes shall not be deemed  inconsistent  if they are made with
respect to different  Beneficial  Owners.  The Indenture Trustee may establish a
reasonable  record date in  connection  with  solicitations  of consents from or

voting by  Noteholders  and give notice to the  Depository  of such record date.
Without  the  consent of the Issuer and the  Indenture  Trustee,  no Note may be
transferred by the Depository  except to a successor  Depository  that agrees to
hold such Note for the account of the Beneficial Owners.                        

        In the event the  Depository  Trust  Company  resigns  or is  removed as
Depository,  the Indenture Trustee,  at the request of the Servicer and with the
approval of the Issuer,  may appoint a  successor  Depository.  If no  successor
Depository  has  been  appointed  within  30 days of the  effective  date of the
Depository's  resignation or removal, each Beneficial Owner shall be entitled to
certificates   representing  the  Notes  it  beneficially  owns  in  the  manner
prescribed in Section 4.08.                                                     

        The Notes shall,  on original issue, be executed on behalf of the Issuer
by the Owner Trustee, not in its individual capacity but solely as Owner Trustee
and upon Issuer Order,  authenticated by the Note Registrar and delivered by the
Indenture Trustee to or upon the order of the Issuer.                           

Section 4.02  Registration of and Limitations on Transfer and Exchange of Notes;
Appointment of Certificate  Registrar.  The Issuer shall cause to be kept at the
Indenture Trustee's Corporate Trust Office a Note Register in which,  subject to
such  reasonable  regulations  as it may  prescribe,  the Note  Registrar  shall
provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers and exchanges of Notes as
herein provided. The Issuer hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as the initial
Note Registrar.                                                                 

        Subject  to the  restrictions  and  limitations  set forth  below,  upon
surrender  for  registration  of  transfer  of any Note at the  Corporate  Trust
Office, the Issuer shall execute,  and the Note Registrar shall authenticate and
deliver,  in the name of the designated  transferee or transferees,  one or more
new Notes in authorized  initial Note  Balances  evidencing  the same  aggregate
Percentage Interests.                                                           

        Subject to the foregoing, at the option of the Noteholders, Notes may be
exchanged for other Notes of like tenor, in each case in authorized initial Note
Balances evidencing the same aggregate Percentage  Interests,  upon surrender of
the Notes to be exchanged at the Corporate  Trust Office of the Note  Registrar.
Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute and
the Note Registrar shall authenticate and deliver the Notes which the Noteholder
making the exchange is entitled to receive.  Each Note  presented or surrendered
for  registration  of  transfer  or  exchange  shall (if so required by the Note
Registrar) be duly  endorsed by, or be  accompanied  by a written  instrument of
transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Note Registrar duly executed by,
the  Noteholder  thereof or his attorney  duly  authorized  in writing with such
signature  guaranteed by a commercial  bank or trust company located or having a
correspondent  located in The City of New York.  Notes  delivered  upon any such
transfer or exchange will evidence the same obligations, and will be entitled to
the same rights and privileges, as the Notes surrendered.

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

        All Notes surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange shall be
cancelled  by the Note  Registrar  and  delivered to the  Indenture  Trustee for
subsequent destruction without liability on the part of either.                 

        The  Issuer  hereby  appoints  the  Indenture   Trustee  as  Certificate
Registrar to keep at its Corporate Trust Office a Certificate  Register pursuant
to Section  3.09 of the Trust  Agreement  in which,  subject to such  reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Certificate Registrar shall provide for the
registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges  thereof pursuant to
Section 3.05 of the Trust Agreement.  The Indenture  Trustee hereby accepts such
appointment.                                                                    

        Each purchaser of a Note, by its acceptance of the Note, shall be deemed
to have  represented that the acquisition of such Note by the purchaser does not
constitute or give rise to a prohibited  transaction  under Section 406 of ERISA
or  Section  4975  of  the  Code,   for  which  no   statutory,   regulatory  or
administrative exemption is available.                                          

Section 4.03  Mutilated,  Destroyed,  Lost or Stolen Notes. If (i) any mutilated
Note is surrendered to the Indenture Trustee,  or the Indenture Trustee receives
evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction,  loss or theft of any Note, and
(ii) there is delivered to the  Indenture  Trustee such security or indemnity as
may be required  by it to hold the Issuer and the  Indenture  Trustee  harmless,
then,  in the  absence  of  notice  to the  Issuer,  the Note  Registrar  or the
Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, and
provided that the  requirements  of Section 8-405 of the UCC are met, the Issuer
shall execute, and upon its request the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver,  in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated,  destroyed,  lost or
stolen Note, a replacement Note of the same class;  provided,  however,  that if
any such destroyed,  lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated  Note,  shall have
become or within  seven  days  shall be due and  payable,  instead  of issuing a
replacement Note, the Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so
due or  payable  without  surrender  thereof.  If,  after the  delivery  of such
replacement Note or payment of a destroyed,  lost or stolen Note pursuant to the
proviso to the preceding sentence, a bona fide purchaser of the original Note in
lieu of which  such  replacement  Note was  issued  presents  for  payment  such
original Note, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover
such replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered
or any  Person  taking  such  replacement  Note  from  such  Person to whom such
replacement  Note was  delivered or any  assignee of such Person,  except a bona
fide purchaser,  and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity
provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by
the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection therewith.                    

        Upon the issuance of any  replacement  Note under this Section 4.03, the
Issuer  may  require  the  payment  by the  Noteholder  of  such  Note  of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental  charge that may be imposed in
relation  thereto  and any other  reasonable  expenses  (including  the fees and
expenses of the Indenture Trustee) connected therewith.

        Every   replacement  Note  issued  pursuant  to  this  Section  4.03  in
replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an
original  additional  contractual  obligation of the Issuer,  whether or not the
mutilated,  destroyed,  lost or stolen Note shall be at any time  enforceable by
anyone,  and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.             

        The provisions of this Section 4.03 are exclusive and shall preclude (to
the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement
or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.                       

Section 4.04 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment for registration of
transfer of any Note,  the Issuer,  the  Indenture  Trustee and any agent of the
Issuer or the  Indenture  Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Note is
registered  (as of the day of  determination)  as the owner of such Note for the
purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest, if any, on such Note
and for all other purposes whatsoever,  whether or not such Note be overdue, and
none of the  Issuer,  the  Indenture  Trustee  or any agent of the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.                  

Section 4.05  Cancellation.  All Notes surrendered for payment,  registration of
transfer,  exchange or redemption shall, if surrendered to any Person other than
the  Indenture  Trustee,  be  delivered  to the  Indenture  Trustee and shall be
promptly cancelled by the Indenture Trustee.  The Issuer may at any time deliver
to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and
delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever,
and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Indenture Trustee.
No  Notes  shall  be  authenticated  in lieu  of or in  exchange  for any  Notes
cancelled as provided in this  Section  4.05,  except as expressly  permitted by
this Indenture.  All cancelled Notes may be held or disposed of by the Indenture
Trustee in  accordance  with its  standard  retention  or disposal  policy as in
effect at the time unless the Issuer shall direct by an Issuer Request that they
be destroyed or returned to it; provided,  however,  that such Issuer Request is
timely  and the Notes  have not been  previously  disposed  of by the  Indenture
Trustee.                                                                        

Section 4.06  Book-Entry  Notes.  Each Class of Notes,  upon original  issuance,
shall be issued in the form of  typewritten  Notes  representing  the Book-Entry
Notes, to be delivered to The Depository Trust Company,  the initial Depository,
by, or on behalf of, the Issuer. Such Notes shall initially be registered on the
Note Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the initial  Depository,
and no  Beneficial  Owner shall  receive a  Definitive  Note  representing  such
Beneficial  Owner's  interest in such Note,  except as provided in Section 4.08.
Unless and until  definitive,  fully registered  Notes (the "Definitive  Notes")
have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 4.08:                 

(a)     the provisions of this Section 4.06 shall be in full force and effect;  

(b) the Note Registrar and the Indenture  Trustee shall be entitled to deal with
the  Depository  for all purposes of this  Indenture  (including  the payment of

principal  of and  interest  on the Notes  and the  giving  of  instructions  or
directions  hereunder)  as the sole  holder  of the  Notes,  and  shall  have no
obligation to the Beneficial Owners;                                            

(c) to the extent that the  provisions  of this Section 4.06  conflict  with any
other  provisions of this  Indenture,  the provisions of this Section 4.06 shall
control;                                                                        

(d) the  rights  of  Beneficial  Owners  shall be  exercised  only  through  the
Depository  and shall be  limited  to those  established  by law and  agreements
between  such  Owners  of  Notes  and  the  Depository   and/or  the  Depository
Participants.  Unless and until  Definitive Notes are issued pursuant to Section
4.08, the initial Depository will make book-entry transfers among the Depository
Participants  and receive and transmit  payments of principal of and interest on
the Notes to such Depository Participants; and                                  

(e) whenever this Indenture  requires or permits  actions to be taken based upon
instructions  or  directions  of  Noteholders  of Notes  evidencing  a specified
percentage of the Note Balances of the Notes,  the Depository shall be deemed to
represent such percentage  only to the extent that it has received  instructions
to such effect from Beneficial Owners and/or Depository  Participants  owning or
representing,  respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest
in the Notes and has delivered such instructions to the Indenture Trustee.      

Section 4.07 Notices to Depository.  Whenever a notice or other communication to
the Noteholders of the Notes is required under this Indenture,  unless and until
Definitive Notes shall have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section
4.08,  the  Indenture  Trustee  shall give all such  notices and  communications
specified herein to be given to Noteholders of the Notes to the Depository,  and
shall have no obligation to the Beneficial Owners.                              

Section 4.08 Definitive Notes. If (i) the Indenture Trustee  determines that the
Depository   is  no  longer   willing  or  able  to   properly   discharge   its
responsibilities  with respect to the Notes and, if  requested by the  Servicer,
the  Indenture  Trustee  is  unable to locate a  qualified  successor,  (ii) the
Indenture  Trustee  elects  to  terminate  the  book-entry  system  through  the
Depository,  or (iii) after the  occurrence  of an Event of Default,  Beneficial
Owners  of  Notes  representing  beneficial  interests  aggregating  at  least a
majority of the  aggregate  Note Balance of the Notes advise the  Depository  in
writing that the  continuation of a book-entry  system through the Depository is
no longer in the best  interests of the Beneficial  Owners,  then the Depository
shall notify all Beneficial  Owners and the Indenture  Trustee of the occurrence
of any such event and of the  availability  of  Definitive  Notes to  Beneficial
Owners  requesting  the same.  Upon  surrender to the  Indenture  Trustee of the
typewritten  Notes  representing  the  Book-Entry  Notes by the  Depository  (or
Percentage Interest of the Book-Entry Notes being transferred pursuant to clause
(iii) above), accompanied by registration instructions, the Issuer shall execute
and the Indenture Trustee shall  authenticate the Definitive Notes in accordance
with the instructions of the Depository.  None of the Issuer, the Note Registrar
or the  Indenture  Trustee  shall be liable  for any delay in  delivery  of such
instructions,  and each may  conclusively  rely on,  and shall be  protected  in
relying on,  such  instructions.  Upon the  issuance of  Definitive  Notes,  the
Indenture  Trustee shall  recognize the  Noteholders of the Definitive  Notes as
Noteholders.

the rights of Noteholders as  beneficiaries  hereof with respect to the property
so deposited with the Indenture  Trustee  payable to all or any of them, and the

ARTICLE V 

Default And Remedies

Section  5.01  Events of  Default.  The Issuer  shall  deliver to the  Indenture
Trustee,  within five days after  learning of the  occurrence  of any event that
with the giving of notice and the lapse of time would become an Event of Default
under clause (c) of the  definition of "Event of Default"  written notice in the
form of an  Officer's  Certificate  of its status and what  action the Issuer is
taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.                                

Section 5.02 Acceleration of Maturity;  Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of
Default shall occur and be continuing, then and in every such case the Indenture
Trustee,  acting at the direction of the Noteholders of Notes  representing  not
less than a majority of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes, may declare the
Notes to be immediately due and payable by a notice in writing to the Issuer and
to the Indenture  Trustee;  and upon any such declaration,  the unpaid principal
amount of the Notes,  together with accrued and unpaid interest  thereon through
the date of acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable.             

        At any time after such  declaration  of  acceleration  of maturity  with
respect to an Event of Default has been made and before a judgment or decree for
payment  of the  money  due  has  been  obtained  by the  Indenture  Trustee  as
hereinafter  provided in this Article V, the Noteholders of Notes representing a
majority of the aggregate  Note Balance of the Notes,  by written  notice to the
Issuer and the  Indenture  Trustee,  may in writing  waive the related  Event of
Default and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:         

(a)  the  Issuer  has  paid  or  deposited  with  the  Indenture  Trustee  a sum
sufficient to pay:                                                    

(i)     all  payments of  principal  of and  interest on the Notes and all other
        amounts that would then be due  hereunder or upon the Notes if the Event
of Default giving rise to such acceleration had not occurred;   

(ii)    all sums paid or advanced by the  Indenture  Trustee  hereunder  and the
        reasonable  compensation,  expenses,  disbursements  and advances of the
Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel; and               

(iii)   all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the
        Notes that has become due solely by such  acceleration,  have been cured
or waived as provided in Section 5.12.

right consequent thereto.                                                       

Section 5.03 Collection of  Indebtedness  and Suits for Enforcement by Indenture
Trustee.                                                              

(a) The Issuer  covenants  that if default in the payment of (i) any interest on
any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and such default continues for a
period  of five  days,  or  (ii)  the  principal  of or any  installment  of the
principal of any Note when the same becomes due and payable,  the Issuer  shall,
upon  demand  of the  Indenture  Trustee,  pay to it,  for  the  benefit  of the
Noteholders,  the entire  amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal
and interest,  with interest on the overdue  principal,  and in addition thereto
such further  amount as shall be  sufficient  to cover the costs and expenses of
collection,  including the reasonable compensation,  expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel.                   

(b) In case the  Issuer  shall  fail  forthwith  to pay such  amounts  upon such
demand,  the  Indenture  Trustee,  in its own name and as  trustee of an express
trust,  subject to the  provisions  of Section  10.17  hereof,  may  institute a
Proceeding for the  collection of the sums so due and unpaid,  and may prosecute
such  Proceeding to judgment or final  decree,  and may enforce the same against
the Issuer or other  obligor on the Notes and collect in the manner  provided by
law out of the  property of the Issuer or other  obligor on the Notes,  wherever
situated, the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable.                         

(c) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee,
subject to the  provisions of Section 10.17  hereof,  may, as more  particularly

Indenture  Trustee  shall deem most  effective  to protect  and enforce any such
rights,  whether for the  specific  enforcement  of any covenant or agreement in
this  Indenture or in aid of the  exercise of any power  granted  herein,  or to
enforce  any other  proper  remedy  or legal or  equitable  right  vested in the
Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or by law.                                  

(d) If there  shall be pending,  relative to the Issuer or any other  obligor on
the Notes or any Person  having or claiming an  ownership  interest in the Trust
Estate,  Proceedings  under  Title 11 of the  United  States  Code or any  other
applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or if a
receiver,  assignee  or trustee in  bankruptcy  or  reorganization,  liquidator,
sequestrator  or  similar  official  shall  have  been  appointed  for or  taken
possession of the Issuer or its property or such other obligor or Person,  or if
there shall be any other comparable judicial  Proceedings relative to the Issuer
or other any other  obligor  on the  Notes,  or  relative  to the  creditors  or
property  of the  Issuer or such  other  obligor,  then the  Indenture  Trustee,
irrespective of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable
as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise, and irrespective of whether
the Indenture  Trustee shall have made any demand  pursuant to the provisions of
this  Section,  shall  be  entitled  and  empowered,  by  intervention  in  such
Proceedings or otherwise:

(g) In  any  Proceedings  to  which  the  Indenture  Trustee  shall  be a  party
(including any Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this
Indenture),  the Indenture  Trustee shall be held to represent all  Noteholders,
and it  shall  not be  necessary  to make  any  Noteholder  a party  to any such

Section 5.04   Remedies; Priorities.                                            

(a) If an Event of  Default  shall have  occurred  and be  continuing,  then the
Indenture Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 10.17 hereof, may do one
or more of the following, in each case subject to Section 5.05:                 

(i)     institute Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an express trust
        for the  collection  of all amounts  then  payable on the Notes or under
        this  Indenture  with  respect   thereto,   whether  by  declaration  or
        otherwise,  enforce any judgment  obtained,  and collect from the Issuer
and any other obligor on the Notes monies adjudged due;         

(ii)    institute  Proceedings  from time to time for the  complete  or  partial
foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the Trust Estate; 

(iii)   exercise  any  remedies  of a secured  party  under the UCC and take any
        other appropriate  action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies
of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders; and               

(iv)    sell the  Trust  Estate or any  portion  thereof  or rights or  interest
        therein,  at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in
any manner permitted by law;                                    

provided,  however,  that  the  Indenture  Trustee  may not  sell  or  otherwise
liquidate  the  Trust  Estate  following  an Event of  Default,  unless  (A) the
Indenture  Trustee  obtains  the  consent  of the  Noteholders  of  100%  of the
aggregate  Note  Balance  of the  Notes,  (B)  the  proceeds  of  such  sale  or
liquidation distributable to Noteholders are sufficient to discharge in full all
amounts then due and unpaid upon the Notes for principal and interest or (C) the
Indenture  Trustee  determines  that the  Mortgage  Loans will not  continue  to
provide  sufficient  funds for the payment of  principal  of and interest on the
Notes as they would have become due if the Notes had not been  declared  due and
payable,  and the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of the Noteholders of 66
2/3% of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes. In determining such sufficiency
or insufficiency with respect to clause (B) and (C) above, the Indenture Trustee
may,  but need not,  obtain and rely,  and shall be protected in relying in good
faith, upon an opinion of an Independent  investment  banking or accounting firm
of national  reputation as to the  feasibility of such proposed action and as to
the  sufficiency  of the Trust  Estate  for such  purpose.  Notwithstanding  the
foregoing,  provided that a Servicing Default shall not have occurred,  any Sale
(as defined in Section 5.15 hereof) of the Trust Estate shall be made subject to

Section 5.05 Optional  Preservation of the Trust Estate.  If the Notes have been
declared due and payable  under  Section 5.02  following an Event of Default and
such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled,  the
Indenture  Trustee may, but need not,  elect to take and maintain  possession of
the Trust  Estate.  It is the desire of the parties  hereto and the  Noteholders
that there be at all times  sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and
interest on the Notes and other  obligations  of the Issuer,  and the  Indenture
Trustee shall take such desire into account when  determining  whether or not to
take and maintain possession of the Trust Estate. In determining whether to take
and maintain possession of the Trust Estate, the Indenture Trustee may, but need
not,  obtain and rely, and shall be protected in relying in good faith,  upon an
opinion of an  Independent  investment  banking or  accounting  firm of national
reputation  as to  the  feasibility  of  such  proposed  action  and  as to  the
sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose.                               

Section  5.06  Limitation  of  Suits.  No  Noteholder  shall  have any  right to
institute any Proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture,
or for the  appointment  of a  receiver  or  trustee,  or for any  other  remedy
hereunder, unless and subject to the provisions of Section 10.17 hereof:        

               (a) such Noteholder shall have previously given written notice to
     the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

(b) the  Noteholders  of not less than 25% of the aggregate  Note Balance of the
Notes shall have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute such
Proceeding  in respect  of such  Event of  Default in its own name as  Indenture
Trustee hereunder;                                                              

(c) such  Noteholder or  Noteholders  shall have offered the  Indenture  Trustee
reasonable indemnity against the costs,  expenses and liabilities to be incurred
by it in complying with such request;                                           

(d) the Indenture Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice,  request
and offer of indemnity shall have failed to institute such Proceedings; and

(e) no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to
the Indenture Trustee during such 60-day period by the Noteholders of a majority
of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes.                                     

        It is understood and intended that no Noteholder shall have any right in
any manner  whatever  by virtue of, or by  availing  of, any  provision  of this
Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Noteholders or
to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Noteholders
or to enforce  any right  under  this  Indenture,  except in the  manner  herein
provided.                                                                       

        In  the  event  the  Indenture  Trustee  shall  receive  conflicting  or
inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Noteholders, each
representing  less than a majority of the  aggregate  Note Balance of the Notes,
the Indenture  Trustee  shall act at the  direction of the group of  Noteholders
with the greater Note  Balance.  In the event that the  Indenture  Trustee shall
receive  conflicting  or  inconsistent  requests and indemnity  from two or more
groups of  Noteholders  representing  the same Note Balance,  then the Indenture
Trustee in its sole  discretion  may  determine  what action,  if any,  shall be
taken, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture.                  

Section  5.07  Unconditional  Rights of  Noteholders  to Receive  Principal  and
Interest.  Subject to the  provisions of this  Indenture,  the Noteholder of any
Note shall have the  right,  which is  absolute  and  unconditional,  to receive
payment of the principal of and  interest,  if any, on such Note on or after the
respective due dates thereof  expressed in such Note or in this Indenture and to
institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not
be impaired without the consent of such Noteholder.                             

Section 5.08 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Indenture Trustee or any
Noteholder  has  instituted  any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under
this Indenture and such  Proceeding has been  discontinued  or abandoned for any
reason or has been  determined  adversely  to the  Indenture  Trustee or to such
Noteholder,  then and in every such case the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee and
the Noteholders  shall,  subject to any  determination  in such  Proceeding,  be
restored  severally and  respectively to their former positions  hereunder,  and
thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture  Trustee and the Noteholders
shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted.                

Section 5.09 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred
upon or reserved to the Indenture  Trustee or the  Noteholders is intended to be
exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the
extent  permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and
remedy  given  hereunder  or now or  hereafter  existing  at law,  in  equity or
otherwise.  The  assertion or employment  of any right or remedy  hereunder,  or
otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other
appropriate right or remedy.                                                    

Section  5.10  Delay or  Omission  Not a  Waiver.  No delay or  omission  of the
Indenture  Trustee or any  Noteholder  to exercise any right or remedy  accruing

upon any Event of Default  shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a
waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.  Every right and
remedy  given by this  Article V or by law to the  Indenture  Trustee  or to the
Noteholders  may be exercised  from time to time,  and as often as may be deemed
expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Noteholders, as the case may be.  

Section  5.11  Control by  Noteholders.  The  Noteholders  of a majority  of the
aggregate Note Balance of Notes shall have the right to direct the time,  method
and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture
Trustee with respect to the Notes or exercising any trust or power  conferred on
the Indenture Trustee, provided that:                                           

(a) such  direction  shall not be in conflict  with any rule of law or with this
Indenture;                                                                      

(b) subject to the express terms of Section 5.04, any direction to the Indenture
Trustee to sell or liquidate  the Trust Estate  shall be by the  Noteholders  of
Notes  representing  not less than 100% of the  aggregate  Note  Balance  of the
Notes;                                                                          

(c) if the  conditions  set forth in Section 5.05 shall have been  satisfied and
the  Indenture  Trustee  elects to  retain  the Trust  Estate  pursuant  to such
Section,  then any direction to the Indenture  Trustee by  Noteholders  of Notes
representing  less than 100% of the aggregate  Note Balance of the Notes to sell
or liquidate the Trust Estate shall be of no force and effect; and              

(d) the  Indenture  Trustee  may take any  other  action  deemed  proper  by the
Indenture Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction.                 

Notwithstanding the rights of Noteholders set forth in this Section,  subject to
Section 6.01, the Indenture  Trustee need not take any action that it determines
(in its sole  discretion)  might  involve it in  liability  or might  materially
adversely  affect the rights of any  Noteholders  not consenting to such action,
unless the Trustee has received satisfactory indemnity from a Noteholder.       

Section  5.12  Waiver  of  Past  Defaults.  Prior  to  the  declaration  of  the
acceleration  of the  maturity  of the Notes as provided  in Section  5.02,  the
Noteholders  of not less than a majority of the  aggregate  Note  Balance of the
Notes, may waive any past Event of Default and its consequences, except an Event
of Default (a) with respect to payment of principal of or interest on any of the
Notes or (b) in  respect  of a  covenant  or  provision  hereof  that  cannot be
modified or amended  without the consent of the  Noteholder of each Note. In the
case of any such waiver,  the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders
shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder; but
no such  waiver  shall  extend to any  subsequent  or other  Event of Default or
impair any right consequent thereto.                                            

        Upon any such waiver,  any Event of Default  arising  therefrom shall be
deemed to have been cured and not to have  occurred,  for every  purpose of this
Indenture;  but no such waiver shall extend to any  subsequent or other Event of
Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

Section 5.13  Undertaking for Costs.  All parties to this Indenture  agree,  and
each  Noteholder  by such  Noteholder's  acceptance of the related Note shall be
deemed to have  agreed,  that any court may in its  discretion  require,  in any
Proceeding for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this  Indenture,  or
in any Proceeding  against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken,  suffered
or omitted by it as Indenture Trustee,  the filing by any party litigant in such
Proceeding of an undertaking to pay the costs of such Proceeding,  and that such
court  may in its  discretion  assess  reasonable  costs,  including  reasonable
attorneys'  fees,  against  any party  litigant in such  Proceeding,  having due
regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party
litigant;  but the  provisions  of this  Section 5.13 shall not apply to (a) any
Proceeding instituted by the Indenture Trustee, (b) any Proceeding instituted by
any Noteholder,  or group of Noteholders,  in each case holding in the aggregate
more than 10% of the aggregate  Note Balance of the Notes or (c) any  Proceeding
instituted by any Noteholder for the  enforcement of the payment of principal of
or interest on any Note on or after the respective  due dates  expressed in such
Note and in this Indenture.                                                     

Section  5.14 Waiver of Stay or Extension  Laws.  The Issuer  covenants  (to the
extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon,  or
plead or in any manner  whatsoever,  claim or take the benefit or advantage  of,
any stay or extension  law  wherever  enacted,  now or at any time  hereafter in
force,  that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture;  and
the Issuer (to the extent that it may  lawfully do so) hereby  expressly  waives
all  benefit  or  advantage  of any such law,  and  covenants  that it shall not
hinder,  delay or impede  the  execution  of any  power  herein  granted  to the
Indenture Trustee,  but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power
as though no such law had been enacted.                                         

Section 5.15   Sale of Trust Estate.                                            

(a) The power to effect any sale or other  disposition (a "Sale") of any portion
of the Trust  Estate  pursuant  to  Section  5.04 is  expressly  subject  to the
provisions of Section 5.05 and this Section  5.15.  The power to effect any such
Sale shall not be  exhausted  by any one or more Sales as to any  portion of the
Trust Estate remaining  unsold,  but shall continue  unimpaired until the entire
Trust Estate shall have been sold or all amounts  payable on the Notes and under
this Indenture shall have been paid. The Indenture Trustee may from time to time
postpone  any public Sale by public  announcement  made at the time and place of
such Sale. The Indenture Trustee hereby expressly waives its right to any amount
fixed by law as compensation for any Sale.                                      

(b) The  Indenture  Trustee shall not in any private Sale sell the Trust Estate,
or any portion thereof, unless:                                                 

(i)  the  Noteholders  of all Notes direct the Indenture  Trustee to make,  such
Sale,                                                                 

(ii)    the proceeds of such Sale would be not less than the entire  amount that
        would  be   payable  to  the   Noteholders   under  the  Notes  and  the
        Certificateholders  under the  Certificates,  in full payment thereof in
        accordance  with Section 5.02, on the Payment Date next  succeeding  the
date of such Sale, or

(iii)   the  Indenture  Trustee  determines,  in its sole  discretion,  that the
        conditions  for  retention of the Trust Estate set forth in Section 5.05
        cannot be satisfied  (in making any such  determination,  the  Indenture
        Trustee may rely and shall be protected in relying in good faith upon an
        opinion of an Independent investment banking firm obtained and delivered
        as provided in Section 5.05), and the Noteholders of Notes  representing
        at least 66 2/3% of the  aggregate  Note Balance of the Notes consent to
such Sale.                                                      

The purchase by the Indenture  Trustee of all or any portion of the Trust Estate
at a private  Sale shall not be deemed a Sale or other  disposition  thereof for
purposes of this Section 5.15(b).                                               

(c) Unless the  Noteholders  shall have  otherwise  consented  or  directed  the
Indenture Trustee,  at any public Sale of all or any portion of the Trust Estate
at  which a  minimum  bid  equal to or  greater  than the  amount  described  in
paragraph (ii) of subsection  (b) of this Section 5.15 has not been  established
by the  Indenture  Trustee and no Person bids an amount equal to or greater than
such amount,  then the Indenture Trustee shall bid an amount at least $1.00 more
than the  highest  other bid,  which bid shall be subject to the  provisions  of
Section 5.15(d)(ii).                                                            

(d)     In connection with a Sale of all or any portion of the Trust Estate:    

(i)  any Noteholder may bid for and purchase the property  offered for sale, and
     upon  compliance  with the terms of sale may hold,  retain and  possess and
     dispose of such  property,  without  further  accountability,  and may,  in
     paying  the  purchase  money  therefor,  deliver  any Notes or  claims  for
     interest  thereon  in  lieu  of cash up to the  amount  which  shall,  upon
     distribution of the net proceeds of such sale, be payable thereon, and such
     Notes, in case the amounts so payable thereon shall be less than the amount
     due  thereon,  shall be returned  to the  Noteholders  thereof  after being
appropriately stamped to show such partial payment;                   

(ii) the Indenture Trustee may bid for and acquire the property offered for Sale
     in connection with any Sale thereof and,  subject to any  requirements  of,
     and to the extent permitted by, applicable law in connection therewith, may
     purchase all or any portion of the Trust Estate in a private  sale. In lieu
     of paying cash therefor,  the Indenture Trustee may make settlement for the
     purchase price by crediting the gross Sale price against the sum of (A) the
     amount   that  would  be   distributable   to  the   Noteholders   and  the
     Certificateholders  as a result of such  Sale in  accordance  with  Section
     5.04(b) on the Payment Date next  succeeding  the date of such Sale and (B)
     the expenses of the Sale and of any  Proceedings  in  connection  therewith
     that are reimbursable to it, without being required to produce the Notes in
     order to  complete  any such Sale or in order for the net Sale  price to be
     credited  against such Notes, and any property so acquired by the Indenture
     Trustee  shall  be  held  and  dealt  with  by it in  accordance  with  the
provisions of this Indenture;

(iii)   the  Indenture   Trustee  shall  execute  and  deliver  an   appropriate
        instrument of conveyance transferring its interest in any portion of the
Trust Estate in connection with a Sale thereof;                 

(iv)    the  Indenture  Trustee is hereby  irrevocably  appointed  the agent and
        attorney-in-fact  of the Issuer to transfer  and convey its  interest in
        any portion of the Trust Estate in connection  with a Sale thereof,  and
to take all action necessary to effect such Sale; and           

(v)     no  purchaser or  transferee  at such a Sale shall be bound to ascertain
        the Indenture Trustee's authority,  inquire into the satisfaction of any
conditions precedent or see to the application of any monies.   

Section 5.16 Action on Notes. The Indenture  Trustee's right to seek and recover
judgment  on the Notes or under  this  Indenture  shall not be  affected  by the
seeking,  obtaining or  application of any other relief under or with respect to
this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of
the Indenture  Trustee or the  Noteholders  shall be impaired by the recovery of
any judgment by the Indenture  Trustee  against the Issuer or by the levy of any
execution  under such  judgment upon any portion of the Trust Estate or upon any
of the assets of the Issuer.  Any money or property  collected by the  Indenture
Trustee shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.04(b).                    

Section 5.17   Performance and Enforcement of Certain Obligations.              

(a) Promptly following a written request from the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer,
in its  capacity  as owner of the  Mortgage  Loans,  shall take all such  lawful
action as the  Indenture  Trustee  may  request to cause the Issuer to compel or
secure the  performance  and  observance  by the  Sellers and the  Servicer,  as
applicable,  of each of their  obligations  to the Issuer under or in connection
with the Purchase Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, and to exercise any and
all rights,  remedies,  powers and privileges  lawfully  available to the Issuer
under or in connection with the Purchase  Agreement and the Servicing  Agreement
to the extent and in the manner directed by the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of
the Mortgage Loans, including the transmission of notices of default on the part
of the  Sellers  or the  Servicer  thereunder  and the  institution  of legal or
administrative  actions or  proceedings  to compel or secure  performance by the
Sellers  or the  Servicer  of each  of  their  obligations  under  the  Purchase
Agreement and the Servicing Agreement.                                          

(b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,  the Indenture
Trustee,  as pledgee of the Mortgage  Loans,  may, and at the  direction  (which
direction  shall be in writing or by telephone  (confirmed  in writing  promptly
thereafter))  of the Noteholders of 66 2/3% of the aggregate Note Balance of the
Notes, shall, exercise all rights,  remedies,  powers,  privileges and claims of
the Issuer against the Sellers or the Servicer  under or in connection  with the
Purchase Agreement and the Servicing Agreement,  including the right or power to
take any action to compel or secure  performance or observance by the Sellers or

thereunder  and to give  any  consent,  request,  notice,  direction,  approval,
extension or waiver under the Purchase Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, as
the case may be,  and any right of the Issuer to take such  action  shall not be
suspended.  In connection therewith, as determined by the Indenture Trustee, the
Issuer  shall take all actions  necessary to effect the transfer of the Mortgage
Loans to the Indenture Trustee.                                                 

ARTICLE VI                                                                      

 The Indenture Trustee

Section 6.01   Duties of Indenture Trustee.                                     

(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,  the Indenture
Trustee shall  exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and
use the same  degree of care and  skill in their  exercise  as a prudent  Person
would  exercise or use under the  circumstances  in the conduct of such Person's
own affairs.                                                                    

(b)     Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:                   

(i)     the  Indenture  Trustee  undertakes to perform such duties and only such
        duties as are  specifically  set forth in this  Indenture and no implied
        covenants or obligations  shall be read into this Indenture  against the
Indenture Trustee; and                                          

(ii)    in the  absence  of bad faith on its part,  the  Indenture  Trustee  may
        conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness
        of  the  opinions  expressed  therein,  upon  certificates,  reports  or
        opinions  furnished  to the  Indenture  Trustee  and  conforming  to the
        requirements of this Indenture;  provided,  however,  that the Indenture
        Trustee  shall  examine  the  certificates,   reports  and  opinions  to
        determine  whether  or not  they  conform  to the  requirements  of this
Indenture.                                                      

(c)  The  Indenture  Trustee  may not be  relieved  from  liability  for its own
negligent  action,  its  own  negligent  failure  to  act  or  its  own  willful
misconduct, except that:                                                        

(i)  this  paragraph  does not limit the effect of paragraph (a) of this Section
6.01;                                                                 

(ii)    the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made
        in good  faith by a  Responsible  Officer  unless it is proved  that the
        Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(iii)   the Indenture  Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it
        takes or omits to take in good  faith  in  accordance  with a  direction
received by it pursuant to Section 5.11.

(d) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received
by it except as the Indenture Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer.     

(e) Money held in trust by the  Indenture  Trustee need not be  segregated  from
other funds except to the extent  required by law or the terms of this Indenture
or the Trust Agreement.                                                         

(f) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee to expend
or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial  liability in the performance
of any of its  duties  hereunder  or in the  exercise  of any of its  rights  or
powers,  if it shall have  reasonable  grounds to believe that repayment of such
funds or adequate  indemnity  against such risk or  liability is not  reasonably
assured to it.                                                                  

(g) Every  provision of this Indenture  relating to the conduct or affecting the
liability of or affording  protection to the Indenture  Trustee shall be subject
to the provisions of this Section and to the provisions of TIA.                 

(h) With respect to each Payment Date, on the Business Day following the related
Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee shall forward or cause to be forwarded
by mail, or other  mutually  agreed-upon  method,  to the Servicer,  a statement
setting forth,  to the extent  applicable,  during the Pre-Funding  Period,  the
Pre-Funded  Amount  as of such  Payment  Date  and any  transfers  of  funds  in
connection therewith.                                                           

(i) The Indenture Trustee hereby accepts appointment as Certificate Paying Agent
under the Trust  Agreement and agrees to be bound by the provisions of the Trust
Agreement relating to the Certificate Paying Agent. The Indenture Trustee hereby
agrees to be bound by the provisions of Article IX of the Trust Agreement.      

(j) The  Indenture  Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to
have notice or knowledge of any Event of Default (except for an Event of Default
specified in clause (a) of the definition  thereof) unless a Responsible Officer
of the  Indenture  Trustee  shall have  received  written  notice or have actual
knowledge  thereof.  In the absence of receipt of such notice or such knowledge,
the Indenture Trustee may conclusively  assume that there is no default or Event
of Default.                                                                     

(k) The  Indenture  Trustee shall have no duty to see to any recording or filing
of any  financing  statement  or  continuation  statement  evidencing a security
interest or to see to the  maintenance of any such recording or filing or to any
rerecording or refiling of any thereof.                                         

Section 6.02   Rights of Indenture Trustee.                                     

(a) The  Indenture  Trustee  may  rely and  shall  be  protected  in  acting  or
refraining from acting in good faith upon any resolution, Officer's Certificate,
opinion  of  counsel,   certificate  of  auditors,  or  any  other  certificate,
statement,  instrument, report, notice, consent or other document believed by it
to be genuine and to have been signed or  presented  by the proper  person.  The
Indenture  Trustee need not  investigate  any fact or matter  stated in any such
document.

(b) Before the Indenture Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an
Officer's  Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. The Indenture Trustee shall not
be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in  reliance on
any such Officer's Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.                           

(c) The Indenture  Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers  hereunder or
perform  any  duties  hereunder  either  directly  or by or  through  agents  or
attorneys  or a custodian or nominee,  and the  Indenture  Trustee  shall not be
responsible  for  any  misconduct  or  negligence  on the  part  of,  or for the
supervision of, any such agent,  attorney,  custodian or nominee  appointed with
due care by it hereunder.                                                       

(d) The  Indenture  Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits
to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or
powers;  provided,  however,  that  the  Indenture  Trustee's  conduct  does not
constitute willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.                         

(e) The Indenture Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or opinion of
counsel with respect to legal matters  relating to this  Indenture and the Notes
shall be full and  complete  authorization  and  protection  from  liability  in
respect to any action  taken,  omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith
and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.                   

(f) The Indenture  Trustee shall not be personally  liable for any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be  authorized  or
within the discretion or rights or powers  conferred upon it by this  Agreement,
unless  it  shall  be  proved  that  the  Indenture  Trustee  was  negligent  in
ascertaining the pertinent facts.                                               

(g) Prior to the  occurrence  of an Event of  Default  hereunder,  and after the
curing or waiver of all Events of Default that may have occurred,  the Indenture
Trustee shall not be bound to make any  investigation  into the facts or matters
stated in any resolution,  certificate,  statement, instrument, opinion, report,
notice,  request,  consent,  order,  approval,  bond or other paper or document,
unless requested in writing to do so by the Noteholders  representing a majority
of the aggregate Note Balance;  provided,  however, that if the payment within a
reasonable time to the Indenture  Trustee of the costs,  expenses or liabilities
likely  to be  incurred  by it in the  making of such  investigation  is, in the
opinion of the Indenture  Trustee,  not assured to the Indenture  Trustee by the
security  afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture,  the Indenture  Trustee
may require  indemnity  satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee against such cost,
expense or liability as a condition to taking any such action.                  

(h) The  Indenture  Trustee  shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
trusts or powers  vested in it by this  Agreement  or to  institute,  conduct or
defend any litigation  hereunder or in relation hereto at the request,  order or
direction  of  any of the  Noteholders,  pursuant  to  the  provisions  of  this

Agreement,  unless the Noteholders  shall have offered to the Indenture  Trustee
reasonable  security or indemnity  against the costs,  expenses and  liabilities
which may be  incurred  therein or  thereby;  nothing  contained  herein  shall,
however, relieve the Indenture Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of
an Event of Default  (which has not been cured or waived),  to exercise  such of
the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the same degree
of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent  investor would exercise or use
under the circumstances in the conduct of such investor's own affairs.          

Section 6.03 Individual  Rights of Indenture  Trustee.  The Indenture Trustee in
its  individual  or any other  capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes
and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it
would have if it were not Indenture Trustee. Any Note Registrar, co-registrar or
co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Indenture Trustee
must comply with Sections 6.11 and 6.12.                                        

Section 6.04 Indenture Trustee's Disclaimer.  The Indenture Trustee shall not be
(i) responsible for and makes no  representation  as to the validity or adequacy
of this  Indenture or the Notes,  (ii)  accountable  for the Issuer's use of the
proceeds from the Notes or (iii)  responsible for any statement of the Issuer in
this  Indenture or in any  document  issued in  connection  with the sale of the
Notes  or in the  Notes,  other  than the  Indenture  Trustee's  certificate  of
authentication thereon.                                                         

Section 6.05 Notice of Event of Default.  The  Indenture  Trustee  shall mail to
each Noteholder  notice of such Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs.
Except  in the  case of an Event of  Default  with  respect  to the  payment  of
principal of or interest on any Note,  the  Indenture  Trustee may withhold such
notice if and so long as a committee of its  Responsible  Officers in good faith
determines that withholding such notice is in the interests of the Noteholders. 

Section 6.06 Reports by Indenture Trustee to Noteholders.  The Indenture Trustee
shall deliver to each Noteholder  such  information as may be required to enable
such  Noteholder  to  prepare  its  federal  and state  income tax  returns.  In
addition, upon Issuer Request, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly furnish such
information  reasonably  requested by the Issuer that is reasonably available to
the  Indenture  Trustee to enable the Issuer to perform  its  federal  and state
income tax reporting obligations.                                               

Section  6.07  Compensation  and  Indemnity.  The  Indenture  Trustee  shall  be
compensated  and  indemnified by the Servicer in accordance with Section 6.06 of
the Servicing  Agreement.  All amounts owing the Indenture  Trustee hereunder in
excess of such amount,  as well as any amount owed to the  Indenture  Trustee in
accordance  with  Section  6.06 of the  Servicing  Agreement,  to the extent the
Servicer  has failed to pay such  amount,  shall be paid  solely as  provided in
Section 3.05 hereof (subject to the priorities set forth therein). The Indenture
Trustee's  compensation  shall not be  limited by any law on  compensation  of a
trustee of an express trust.  The Issuer shall  reimburse the Indenture  Trustee
for all  reasonable  out-of-pocket  expenses  incurred or made by it,  including
costs of  collection,  in addition to the  compensation  for its services.  Such
expenses shall include the reasonable compensation,  expenses, disbursements and

advances of the Indenture  Trustee's agents,  counsel,  accountants and experts.
The Issuer  shall  indemnify  the  Indenture  Trustee  against any and all loss,
liability or expense  (including  attorneys'  fees) incurred by it in connection
with  the  administration  of this  trust  and  the  performance  of its  duties
hereunder.  The Indenture  Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim
for which it may seek indemnity.  Failure by the Indenture  Trustee to so notify
the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer
shall defend any such claim, and the Indenture Trustee may have separate counsel
and the Issuer  shall pay the fees and expenses of such  counsel.  The Issuer is
not obligated to reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss,  liability
or expense incurred by the Indenture Trustee through the Indenture Trustee's own
willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.                                    

        The Issuer's  payment  obligations to the Indenture  Trustee pursuant to
this  Section  6.07 shall  survive the  discharge  of this  Indenture.  When the
Indenture  Trustee  incurs  expenses after the occurrence of an Event of Default
specified  in clause (c) or (d) of the  definition  thereof  with respect to the
Issuer,  such  expenses are intended to  constitute  expenses of  administration
under  Title 11 of the United  States  Code or any other  applicable  federal or
state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.                                    

Section 6.08 Replacement of Indenture Trustee.  No resignation or removal of the
Indenture  Trustee and no  appointment  of a successor  Indenture  Trustee shall
become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor  Indenture
Trustee  pursuant to this Section 6.08. The Indenture  Trustee may resign at any
time by so notifying the Issuer.  The Noteholders of a majority of the aggregate
Note Balance of the Notes may remove the  Indenture  Trustee by so notifying the
Indenture  Trustee  (if given by such  Noteholders)  and may appoint a successor
Indenture Trustee. Unless a Servicer Default has occurred and is continuing, the
appointment  of any  successor  Indenture  Trustee shall be subject to the prior
written approval of the Servicer.  The Issuer shall remove the Indenture Trustee
if:                                                                             

(a)     the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11;                

(b)     the Indenture Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent;              

(c) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Indenture  Trustee or
its property; or                                                                

(d) the Indenture  Trustee  otherwise becomes incapable of fulfilling its duties
under the Basic Documents.                                                      

        If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in
the office of the  Indenture  Trustee for any reason (the  Indenture  Trustee in
such event being  referred to herein as the  retiring  Indenture  Trustee),  the
Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor  Indenture Trustee.  In addition,  the
Indenture Trustee shall resign to avoid being directly or indirectly  controlled
by the Issuer.

        A successor  Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee and to the Issuer.  Thereupon, the
resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective,
and the successor Indenture Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties
of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture.  The successor  Indenture Trustee
shall mail a notice of its succession to the Noteholders. The retiring Indenture
Trustee shall promptly  transfer all property held by it as Indenture Trustee to
the successor Indenture Trustee.                                                

        If a successor  Indenture  Trustee  does not take office  within 60 days
after the retiring  Indenture  Trustee resigns or is removed,  then the retiring
Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Noteholders of a majority of aggregate Note
Balance of the Notes may petition any court of  competent  jurisdiction  for the
appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.                                   

        If the  Indenture  Trustee  fails  to  comply  with  Section  6.11,  any
Noteholder may petition any court of competent  jurisdiction  for the removal of
the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.     

        Notwithstanding  the  replacement of the Indenture  Trustee  pursuant to
this Section, the Issuer's obligations under Section 6.07 shall continue for the
benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee.                                      

Section 6.09 Successor  Indenture  Trustee by Merger.  If the Indenture  Trustee
consolidates  with,  merges or converts into, or transfers all or  substantially
all its corporate  trust business or assets to,  another  corporation or banking
association, then the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any
further  act  shall be the  successor  Indenture  Trustee;  provided,  that such
corporation  or banking  association  shall be otherwise  qualified and eligible
under Section 6.11. The Indenture Trustee shall provide the Rating Agencies with
written notice of any such transaction occurring after the Closing Date.        

        If at  the  time  of  any  such  succession  by  merger,  conversion  or
consolidation, any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered,
then any such  successor to the Indenture  Trustee may adopt the  certificate of
authentication   of  any  predecessor   trustee,   and  deliver  such  Notes  so
authenticated.   If  at  such  time  any  of  the  Notes  shall  not  have  been
authenticated,  any successor to the  Indenture  Trustee may  authenticate  such
Notes  either  in the name of any  predecessor  hereunder  or in the name of the
successor to the Indenture  Trustee;  and in all such cases,  such  certificates
shall have the full force that it is anywhere in the Notes or in this  Indenture
provided that the certificate of the Indenture Trustee shall have.              

     Section 6.10  Appointment  of  Co-Indenture  Trustee or Separate  Indenture
Trustee.                                                              

(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any time, for the
purpose of meeting any legal  requirement of any  jurisdiction in which any part
of the Trust Estate may at such time be located,  the  Indenture  Trustee  shall
have the power and may execute and  deliver  all  instruments  to appoint one or
more  Persons to act as a  co-trustee  or  co-trustees,  or separate  trustee or
separate trustees,  of all or any part of the Issuer, and to vest in such Person
or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Noteholders,  such title
to the Trust Estate,  or any part thereof,  and, subject to the other provisions

of this  Section,  such powers,  duties,  obligations,  rights and trusts as the
Indenture Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate
trustee  hereunder  shall be  required  to meet the  terms of  eligibility  as a
successor  trustee  under  Section  6.11,  and no notice to  Noteholders  of the
appointment  of any  co-trustee  or separate  trustee  shall be  required  under
Section 6.08 hereof.                                                            

(b) Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law,
be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:        

(i)  all rights,  powers,  duties and obligations  conferred or imposed upon the
     Indenture  Trustee  shall be  conferred  or imposed  upon and  exercised or
     performed by the Indenture  Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee
     jointly (it being  understood  that such separate  trustee or co-trustee is
     not authorized to act separately  without the Indenture  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 Indenture  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 Trust Estate or any portion thereof in any such  jurisdiction)
     shall be  exercised  and  performed  singly  by such  separate  trustee  or
co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Indenture Trustee;     

(ii) no trustee  hereunder  shall be  personally  liable by reason of any act or
omission of any other trustee hereunder; and                          

(iii)   the  Indenture  Trustee  may at any time  accept the  resignation  of or
remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.                      

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

(d) Any separate  trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Indenture
Trustee,  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
Indenture on its behalf and in its name.  If any separate  trustee or co-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
Indenture Trustee,  to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a
new or successor trustee.

Section 6.11 Eligibility;  Disqualification.  The Indenture Trustee shall at all
times satisfy the  requirements of TIA ss. 310(a).  The Indenture  Trustee shall
have a combined capital and surplus of at least  $50,000,000 as set forth in its
most recent published annual report of condition and it or its parent shall have
a long-term debt rating of A or better by Moody's.  The Indenture  Trustee shall
comply with TIA ss. 310(b),  including the optional  provision  permitted by the
second sentence of TIA ss.  310(b)(9);  provided,  however,  that there shall be
excluded  from the  operation of TIA ss.  310(b)(1)  any indenture or indentures
under which other  securities of the Issuer are outstanding if the  requirements
for such exclusion set forth in TIA ss. 310(b)(1) are met.                      

        Within 90 days after  ascertaining the occurrence of an Event of Default
which shall not have been cured or waived,  unless authorized by the Commission,
the Indenture  Trustee shall resign with respect to the Class A Notes, the Class
M Notes  and/or  the  Class B Notes  in  accordance  with  Section  6.08 of this
Indenture,  and the Issuer shall appoint a successor  Indenture Trustee for one,
two or all of such  Classes,  as  applicable,  so that  there  will be  separate
Indenture  Trustees  for the  Class A Notes,  the  Class M Notes and the Class B
Notes. In the event the Indenture  Trustee fails to comply with the terms of the
preceding  sentence,  the  Indenture  Trustee shall comply with clauses (ii) and
(iii) of TIA ss. 310(b).                                                        

        In the  case  of the  appointment  hereunder  of a  successor  Indenture
Trustee with respect to any Class of Notes  pursuant to this Section  6.11,  the
Issuer, the retiring Indenture Trustee and the successor  Indenture Trustee with
respect  to  such  Class  of  Notes  shall  execute  and  deliver  an  indenture
supplemental  hereto wherein each successor  Indenture Trustee shall accept such
appointment and which (i) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or
desirable  to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, the  successor  Indenture
Trustee  all the rights,  powers,  trusts and duties of the  retiring  Indenture
Trustee with respect to the Notes of the Class to which the  appointment of such
successor  Indenture Trustee relates,  (ii) if the retiring Indenture Trustee is
not retiring with respect to all Classes of Notes, shall contain such provisions
as shall be deemed  necessary  or  desirable  to  confirm  that all the  rights,
powers,  trusts and duties of the retiring Indenture Trustee with respect to the
Notes of each Class as to which the retiring  Indenture  Trustee is not retiring
shall continue to be vested in the Indenture Trustee,  and (iii) shall add to or
change any of the  provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide
for or facilitate the  administration  of the trusts  hereunder by more than one
Indenture  Trustee,   it  being  understood  that  nothing  herein  or  in  such
supplemental  indenture shall constitute such Indenture Trustees  co-trustees of
the same trust and that each such Indenture  Trustee shall be trustee of a trust
or  trusts  hereunder  separate  and apart  from any  trust or trusts  hereunder

lien of this  Indenture  with respect to any part of the Trust Estate or, except
as  otherwise  permitted  or  contemplated  herein,  terminate  the lien of this
Indenture on any property at any time subject  hereto or deprive the  Noteholder
of any Note of the security provided by the lien of this Indenture; and provided
further,  that such  action  shall not, as  evidenced  by an Opinion of Counsel,
cause the Issuer to be subject to an entity level tax.                          

        The Indenture Trustee may in its discretion determine whether or not any
Notes would be affected by any supplemental indenture and any such determination
shall be conclusive  upon the Noteholders of all Notes,  whether  theretofore or
thereafter  authenticated and delivered  hereunder.  The Indenture Trustee shall
not be liable for any such determination made in good faith.

        It shall not be  necessary  for any Act (as  defined  in  Section  10.03
hereof) of Noteholders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of
any proposed  supplemental  indenture,  but it shall be  sufficient  if such Act
shall approve the substance thereof.                                            

        Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Indenture  Trustee of
any supplemental  indenture pursuant to this Section 9.02, the Indenture Trustee
shall  mail  to  the  Noteholders  of the  Notes  to  which  such  amendment  or
supplemental  indenture  relates a notice  setting  forth in  general  terms the
substance of such supplemental  indenture.  Any failure of the Indenture Trustee
to mail such  notice,  or any defect  therein,  shall not,  however,  in any way
impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.               

Section 9.03 Execution of Supplemental  Indentures.  In executing, or permitting
the additional trusts created by, any supplemental  indenture  permitted by this
Article IX or the modification  thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture,
the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive and, subject to Sections 6.01
and 6.02,  shall be fully  protected  in  relying  upon,  an  Opinion of Counsel
stating that the  execution of such  supplemental  indenture  is  authorized  or
permitted  by this  Indenture.  The  Indenture  Trustee  may,  but  shall not be
obligated  to,  enter into any such  supplemental  indenture  that  affects  the
Indenture  Trustee's own rights,  duties,  liabilities or immunities  under this
Indenture or otherwise.                                                         

Section  9.04  Effect  of  Supplemental  Indenture.  Upon the  execution  of any
supplemental  indenture pursuant to the provisions hereof,  this Indenture shall
be and shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance  therewith  with
respect to the Notes affected thereby, and the respective rights, limitations of
rights, obligations,  duties, liabilities and immunities under this Indenture of
the  Indenture  Trustee,  the Issuer and the  Noteholders  shall  thereafter  be
determined,  exercised  and enforced  hereunder  subject in all respects to such
modifications  and  amendments,  and all the  terms and  conditions  of any such
supplemental  indenture  shall  be and be  deemed  to be part of the  terms  and
conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes.                          

Section  9.05  Conformity  with Trust  Indenture  Act.  Every  amendment of this
Indenture and every supplemental  indenture executed pursuant to this Article IX
shall  conform  to the  requirements  of TIA as in  effect  at the  time of such
amendment or supplement so long as this Indenture  shall then be qualified under
TIA.                                                                            

Section 9.06 Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures.  Notes authenticated
and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this
Article IX may, and if required by the Indenture Trustee, shall, bear a notation
in form approved by the Indenture  Trustee as to any matter provided for in such
supplemental  indenture.  If  the  Issuer  or the  Indenture  Trustee  shall  so
determine,  new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Indenture
Trustee and the Issuer, to any such  supplemental  indenture may be prepared and
executed by the Issuer and  authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee
in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

(ii) Whenever  the Issuer is  required  to furnish to the  Indenture  Trustee an
     Officer's  Certificate  certifying  or  stating  the  opinion of any signer
     thereof as to the matters  described in clause (i) above,  the Issuer shall
     also deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Independent  Certificate as to the
     same  matters,  if the fair value to the Issuer of the  securities to be so
     deposited  and of all  other  such  securities  made the  basis of any such
     withdrawal or release since the  commencement  of the  then-current  fiscal
     year of the Issuer, as set forth in the certificates  delivered pursuant to
     clause (i) above and this clause (ii), is 10% or more of the aggregate Note
     Balance of the Notes,  but such a  certificate  need not be furnished  with
     respect to any  securities so  deposited,  if the fair value thereof to the
     Issuer  as set  forth in the  related  Officer's  Certificate  is less than
     $25,000  or less than one  percent  of the  aggregate  Note  Balance of the
Notes.

     Officer's  Certificate  certifying  or  stating  the  opinion of any signer
     thereof as to the matters described in clause (iii) above, the Issuer shall
     also furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Independent  Certificate as to the
     same  matters if the fair value of the  property or  securities  and of all
     other property,  other than property as contemplated by clause (v) below or
     securities  released from the lien of this Indenture since the commencement
     of the  then-current  calendar  year,  as  set  forth  in the  certificates
     required by clause (iii) above and this clause (iv),  equals 10% or more of
     the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes,  but such  certificate need not be
     furnished in the case of any release of property or  securities if the fair
     value  thereof as set forth in the related  Officer's  Certificate  is less
     than $25,000 or less than one percent of the aggregate  Note Balance of the
Notes.                                                                

(v)  Notwithstanding  any provision of this Indenture,  the Issuer may,  without
     compliance with the  requirements  of the other  provisions of this Section
     10.01, (A) collect upon, sell or otherwise dispose of the Mortgage Loans as
     and to the extent  permitted or required by the Basic Documents or (B) make
     cash  payments  out of  the  Note  Payment  Account  as  and to the  extent

     1999,  an  Officer's  Certificate  of  the  Issuer  stating  that  all  the
     dispositions  of  Collateral  described  in  clauses  (A) or (B) above that
     occurred  during the preceding six calendar  months (or such longer period,
     in the case of the first such Officer's  Certificate)  were in the ordinary
     course of the Issuer's  business and that the proceeds thereof were applied
in accordance with the Basic Documents.

Section 10.02  Form of Documents Delivered to Indenture Trustee.                

        In any case where  several  matters are required to be certified  by, or
covered by an opinion of, any specified  Person,  it is not  necessary  that all
such  matters  be  certified  by, or covered by the  opinion  of,  only one such
Person,  or that they be so certified or covered by only one  document,  but one
such Person may certify or give an opinion  with respect to some matters and one
or more other such Persons as to other matters,  and any such Person may certify
or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.              

        Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer may be
based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of,
or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of
reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or  representations
with respect to the matters upon which his  certificate  or opinion is based are
erroneous.  Any such certificate of an Authorized  Officer or Opinion of Counsel
may be based,  insofar as it relates to factual  matters,  upon a certificate or
opinion of, or  representations  by, an officer or officers of either  Seller or
the Issuer, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is
in the possession of either Seller or the Issuer,  unless such counsel knows, or
in the exercise of reasonable  care should know, that the certificate or opinion
or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.                  

        Where any  Person  is  required  to make,  give or  execute  two or more
applications,  requests, consents,  certificates,  statements, opinions or other
instruments  under this Indenture,  they may, but need not, be consolidated  and
form one instrument.                                                            

        Whenever  in this  Indenture,  in  connection  with any  application  or
certificate or report to the Indenture  Trustee,  it is provided that the Issuer
shall  deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such  application,
or as evidence of the Issuer's  compliance with any term hereof,  it is intended
that the truth and accuracy,  at the time of the granting of such application or
at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the
facts and  opinions  stated in such  document  shall in such case be  conditions
precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application  granted or to the
sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however,  be
construed  to affect the  Indenture  Trustee's  right to rely upon the truth and
accuracy of any statement or opinion  contained in any such document as provided
in Article VI.                                                                  

Section 10.03  Acts of Noteholders.                                             

(a) Any request, demand,  authorization,  direction,  notice, consent, waiver or
other action  provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders may
be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar
tenor  signed by such  Noteholders  in person or by  agents  duly  appointed  in
writing;  and except as herein  otherwise  expressly  provided such action shall
become  effective  when such  instrument  or  instruments  are  delivered to the
Indenture Trustee,  and, where it is hereby expressly  required,  to the Issuer.
Such instrument or instruments  (and the action  embodied  therein and evidenced
thereby)  are  herein  sometimes  referred  to as the  "Act" of the  Noteholders
signing  such  instrument  or  instruments.  Proof  of  execution  of  any  such
instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any
purpose of this  Indenture and (subject to Section 6.01)  conclusive in favor of
the  Indenture  Trustee and the Issuer,  if made in the manner  provided in this
Section 10.03.

(b) The fact and date of the  execution by any person of any such  instrument or
writing may be proved in any manner that the Indenture Trustee deems sufficient.

(c)     The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register.            

(d) Any request, demand,  authorization,  direction,  notice, consent, waiver or
other action by the  Noteholder  of any Note shall bind the  Noteholder of every
Note issued  upon the  registration  thereof or in exchange  therefor or in lieu
thereof,  in respect of  anything  done,  omitted or  suffered to be done by the
Indenture Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon,  whether or not notation of
such action is made upon such Note.                                             

Section 10.04 Notices,  etc., to Indenture Trustee,  Issuer and Rating Agencies.
Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of
Noteholders or other documents  provided or permitted by this Indenture shall be
in  writing  and if such  request,  demand,  authorization,  direction,  notice,
consent,  waiver or Act of Noteholders is to be made upon, given or furnished to
or filed with:                                                                  

(a) the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuer shall be sufficient
for every purpose hereunder if made, given,  furnished or filed in writing to or
with the Indenture  Trustee at its  Corporate  Trust Office with a copy to Wells
Fargo Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  11000  Broken Land  Parkway,  Columbia,  Maryland
21044-3562,  Attention:  GMACM  2000-HE3.  The Indenture  Trustee shall promptly
transmit any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Issuer, or       

(b) the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder shall be sufficient
for every  purpose  hereunder  if in  writing  and mailed  first-class,  postage
prepaid to the Issuer addressed to: GMACM Mortgage Loan Trust 2000-HE3,  in care
of the Owner Trustee, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to
the  Indenture  Trustee by the Issuer.  The Issuer shall  promptly  transmit any
notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee.            

        Notices  required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Issuer,  the
Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be in writing, personally delivered
or mailed by certified  mail,  return receipt  requested,  to (i) in the case of
Standard & Poor's,  at the following  address:  Standard & Poor's,  26 Broadway,
15th Floor,  New York,  New York 10004,  Attention:  Asset  Backed  Surveillance
Department and (ii) in the case of Fitch, at the following address: Fitch, Inc.,
One  State  Street  Plaza,  New York,  New York  10004,  Attention:  Residential
Mortgage Group, or, as to each of the foregoing  Persons,  at such other address
as shall be designated by written notice to the other foregoing Persons.        

Section 10.05 Notices to Noteholders;  Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for
notice to  Noteholders  of any event,  such notice shall be  sufficiently  given
(unless  otherwise  herein  expressly   provided)  if  in  writing  and  mailed,
first-class,  postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such event, at such
Person's  address as it appears on the Note Register,  not later than the latest

date, and not earlier than the earliest date,  prescribed for the giving of such
notice.  In any case where notice to Noteholders  is given by mail,  neither the
failure  to mail  such  notice  nor any  defect  in any  notice so mailed to any
particular  Noteholder  shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect
to other  Noteholders,  and any  notice  that is  mailed  in the  manner  herein
provided shall  conclusively  be presumed to have been duly given  regardless of
whether such notice is in fact actually received.                               

        Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner,  such notice may
be waived in writing by any Person  entitled  to  receive  such  notice,  either
before or after the  event,  and such  waiver  shall be the  equivalent  of such
notice.  Waivers  of notice by  Noteholders  shall be filed  with the  Indenture
Trustee,  but such filing shall not be a condition  precedent to the validity of
any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver.                                

        In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result
of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity,  it shall be impractical to mail
notice of any event to  Noteholders  when such  notice is  required  to be given
pursuant  to any  provision  of this  Indenture,  then any manner of giving such
notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be a
sufficient giving of such notice.                                               

        Where this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating Agencies, failure
to give such notice  shall not affect any other  rights or  obligations  created
hereunder, and shall not under any circumstance constitute an Event of Default. 

Section  10.06  Alternate  Payment and Notice  Provisions.  Notwithstanding  any
provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes to the contrary,  the Issuer may
enter into any agreement with any Noteholder  providing for a method of payment,
or notice by the Indenture  Trustee to such  Noteholder,  that is different from
the methods  provided for in this  Indenture for such  payments or notices.  The
Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture  Trustee a copy of each such agreement and
the Indenture Trustee shall cause payments to be made and notices to be given in
accordance with such agreements.                                                

Section 10.07 Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any provision hereof limits,
qualifies or  conflicts  with  another  provision  hereof that is required to be
included  in this  Indenture  by any of the  provisions  of TIA,  such  required
provision shall control.                                                        

        The  provisions of TIA ss.ss.  310 through 317 that impose duties on any
Person  (including the provisions  automatically  deemed  included herein unless
expressly  excluded by this  Indenture) are a part of and govern this Indenture,
whether or not physically contained herein.                                     

Section 10.08 Effect of Headings.  The Article and Section  headings  herein are
for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.              

Section 10.09  Successors  and Assigns.  All  covenants  and  agreements in this
Indenture  and the Notes by the Issuer  shall bind its  successors  and assigns,
whether so expressed or not. All  agreements  of the  Indenture  Trustee in this
Indenture shall bind its successors, co-trustees and agents.

Section 10.10  Severability.  In case any provision in this  Indenture or in the
Notes shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable,  the validity,  legality,
and  enforceability  of the remaining  provisions hereof shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby.                                                   

Section 10.11 Benefits of Indenture.  Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes,
express or implied,  shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and
their  successors  hereunder,  and the  Noteholders  and any other party secured
hereunder,  and any other Person with an  ownership  interest in any part of the
Trust Estate, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under
this Indenture.                                                                 

Section 10.12 Legal Holidays. In any case where the date on which any payment is
due shall not be a Business Day, then  (notwithstanding  any other  provision of
the Notes or this  Indenture)  payment need not be made on such date, but may be
made on the next  succeeding  Business  Day with the same force and effect as if
made on the date on which  nominally  due, and no interest  shall accrue for the
period from and after any such nominal date.                                    

Section 10.13  GOVERNING  LAW. THIS  INDENTURE  SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,  WITHOUT  REFERENCE TO ITS  CONFLICTS OF
LAW  PROVISIONS,  AND  THE  OBLIGATIONS,  RIGHTS  AND  REMEDIES  OF THE  PARTIES
HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

examination or audit by any governmental  taxing authority with respect thereto.
The legal  expenses,  including  without  limitation  attorneys' or accountants'

are incurred by reason of the REMIC  Administrator's  willful  misfeasance,  bad
faith or gross negligence.                                                      

(d) The REMIC Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared all of the Tax
Returns  that it  determines  are required  with  respect to each REMIC  created

respect to any tax or liability  arising from the Owner Trustee's signing of Tax
Returns that contain  errors or omissions.  The  Indenture  Trustee and Servicer

REMIC  Administrator  may from time to time  request for the purpose of enabling
the REMIC Administrator to prepare Tax Returns.

(f) The Servicer and the REMIC  Administrator  shall take such actions and shall
cause each REMIC created hereunder to take such actions as are reasonably within
the Servicer's or the REMIC Administrator's  control and the scope of its duties
more  specifically  set  forth  herein as shall be  necessary  or  desirable  to
maintain the status of each REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions (and the
Indenture Trustee shall assist the Servicer and the REMIC Administrator,  to the
extent  reasonably  requested by the Servicer and the REMIC  Administrator to do
so).  The  Servicer  and  the  REMIC   Administrator   shall  not  knowingly  or
intentionally take any action, cause the Trust Estate to take any action or fail
to take (or fail to  cause to be  taken)  any  action  reasonably  within  their
respective  control that, under the REMIC Provisions,  if taken or not taken, as
the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of any portion of either REMIC as
a REMIC or (ii) result in the  imposition of a tax upon either REMIC  (including
but not  limited  to the tax on  prohibited  transactions  as defined in Section
860F(a)(2)  of the Code and the tax on  contributions  to a REMIC  set  forth in
Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such event, in the absence of an Opinion of
Counsel or the indemnification  referred to in this sentence,  an "Adverse REMIC
Event")  unless the  Servicer or the REMIC  Administrator,  as  applicable,  has
received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take such
action or, if such party  fails to pay such  expense,  and the  Servicer  or the
REMIC Administrator, as applicable, determines that taking such action is in the
best   interest   of  the   Trust   Estate   and   the   Noteholders   and   the
Certificateholders,  at the expense of the Trust Estate,  but in no event at the
expense  of the  Servicer,  the REMIC  Administrator,  the Owner  Trustee or the
Indenture  Trustee) to the effect that the  contemplated  action will not,  with
respect to each REMIC  created  hereunder,  endanger  such status or, unless the
Servicer,  the REMIC  Administrator or both, as applicable,  determine in its or
their sole  discretion to indemnify the Trust Estate  against the  imposition of
such a tax, result in the imposition of such a tax. Wherever in this Agreement a
contemplated  action may not be taken  because the timing of such  action  might
result  in the  imposition  of a tax on the Trust  Estate,  or may only be taken
pursuant to an Opinion of Counsel that such action would not impose a tax on the
Trust Estate,  such action may  nonetheless be taken provided that the indemnity
given in the preceding  sentence with respect to any taxes that might be imposed
on the Trust  Estate  has been  given and that all  other  preconditions  to the
taking of such action have been satisfied.  The Indenture Trustee shall not take
or fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the
Servicer or the REMIC  Administrator,  as applicable,  has advised it in writing
that it has  received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse  REMIC
Event could occur with respect to such action. In addition,  prior to taking any
action with respect to either  REMIC  created  hereunder  or any related  assets
thereof,  or causing  either  REMIC to take any action,  which is not  expressly
permitted under the terms of this Agreement,  the Indenture Trustee will consult
with the Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable, or its designee, in
writing,  with respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event
to occur with respect to either REMIC, and the Indenture  Trustee shall not take
any such  action or cause  either  REMIC to take any such action as to which the
Servicer or the REMIC  Administrator,  as applicable,  has advised it in writing
that  an  Adverse   REMIC  Event  could   occur.   The  Servicer  or  the  REMIC
Administrator,  as  applicable,  may consult  with  counsel to make such written
advice,  and the cost of same  shall be borne by the party  seeking  to take the
action not expressly permitted by this Agreement, but in no event at the expense
of the Servicer or the REMIC  Administrator.  At all times as may be required by

its duties more specifically set forth herein, maintain substantially all of the
assets of each REMIC created  hereunder as  "qualified  mortgages" as defined in
Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and "permitted investments" as defined in Section
860G(a)(5) of the Code.                                                         

(g) In the event that any tax is imposed on "prohibited  transactions" of either
REMIC  created  hereunder as defined in Section  860F(a)(2) of the Code, on "net
income from foreclosure  property" of either REMIC as defined in Section 860G(c)
of the Code, on any contributions to either REMIC after the Startup Day therefor
pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed by the Code
or any  applicable  provisions  of state or local  tax  laws,  such tax shall be
charged (i) to the Servicer,  if such tax arises out of or results from a breach
by the Servicer of any of its  obligations  under this Agreement or the Servicer
has in its sole discretion determined to indemnify the Trust Estate against such
tax, (ii) to the Indenture Trustee,  if such tax arises out of or results from a
breach by the Trustee of any of its obligations  under this Article XI, or (iii)
otherwise against amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account and on the Payment
Date(s)  following  such  reimbursement  the  aggregate  of such taxes  shall be
allocated  in  reduction  of the  accrued  interest  due on each Class  entitled
thereto on a pro rata basis.                                                    

(h) The  Indenture  Trustee  and the  Servicer  shall,  for  federal  income tax
purposes,  maintain  books  and  records  with  respect  to each  REMIC  created
hereunder  on a calendar  year and on an accrual  basis or as  otherwise  may be
required by the REMIC Provisions.                                               

(i)  Following the Startup Day,  neither the Servicer nor the Indenture  Trustee
shall  accept any  contributions  of assets to either  REMIC  created  hereunder
unless  (subject to Section  11.01(f))  the Servicer and the  Indenture  Trustee
shall have  received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party  seeking
to make such  contribution)  to the effect that the  inclusion of such assets in
such REMIC will not cause either REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time
that any Notes or  Certificates  are  outstanding or subject either REMIC to any
tax under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal,  state
and local law or ordinances.                                                    

(j) Neither the Servicer  nor the Trustee  shall  (subject to Section  11.01(f))
enter into any arrangement by which either REMIC created  hereunder will receive
a fee or other  compensation for services nor permit either REMIC to receive any
income  from  assets  other  than  "qualified  mortgages"  as defined in Section
860G(a)(3)  of the  Code  or  "permitted  investments"  as  defined  in  Section
860G(a)(5) of the Code.                                                         

(k)  Solely for the  purposes  of Section  1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii)  of the  Treasury
Regulations,  the  "latest  possible  maturity  date" by which  the  Certificate
Principal Balance of each Class of Notes and Certificates representing a regular
interest in the applicable REMIC is the Final Payment Date.                     

(l) Within 30 days after the Closing Date, the REMIC Administrator shall prepare
and file with the Internal  Revenue Service Form 8811,  "Information  Return for
Real Estate Mortgage  Investment  Conduits (REMIC) and Issuers of Collateralized
Debt Obligations" for each REMIC created hereunder.

substitute  for any of the Mortgage  Loans  (except in  connection  with (i) the
default,  imminent default or foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan,  including but not
limited to, the acquisition or sale of a Mortgaged  Property acquired by deed in
lieu of  foreclosure,  (ii) the  bankruptcy of either REMIC  created  hereunder,
(iii) the  termination of the  applicable  REMIC pursuant to Section 3.05 of the
Trust  Agreement or (iv) a purchase of Mortgage  Loans  pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement)  nor acquire any assets for either REMIC,  nor sell or dispose of any
investments in the Custodial  Account or the Payment Account for gain nor accept
any  contributions to either REMIC after the Closing Date unless it has received
an Opinion of Counsel that such sale,  disposition,  substitution or acquisition
will not (a)  affect  adversely  the  status of  either  REMIC as a REMIC or (b)
unless the Servicer has determined in its sole discretion to indemnify the Trust
Estate  against  such  tax,  cause  either  REMIC  to be  subject  to a  tax  on
"prohibited transactions" or "contributions" pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.  

(n) The  Trustee  will  apply for an  employer  identification  number  from the
Internal Revenue Service on a Form SS-4 or any other  acceptable  method for all
tax entities.

imposed  to the  extent  such  breach  is a result  of an error or  omission  in
information  provided to the REMIC  Administrator  by the Servicer in which case
Section 11.02(c) will apply.

registered  assigns,  the  principal  sum of two hundred  sixty five million one
hundred eighty one thousand dollars ($265,181,000), payable on each Payment Date

Initial Note Balance  specified  above and the Initial Note Balance of all Class
A-1  Notes) of the  aggregate  amount,  if any,  payable  from the Note  Payment
Account in respect of principal of the Class A-1 Notes (the "Notes") pursuant to
Section 3.05 of the  indenture  dated as of October 30, 2000 (the  "Indenture"),
between the Issuer and Wells Fargo Bank  Minnesota,  N.A., as indenture  trustee
(the "Indenture Trustee");  provided,  however, that the entire unpaid principal
amount of this Note shall be due and  payable on the  Payment  Date in  December
2031, to the extent not  previously  paid on a prior  Payment Date.  Capitalized
terms  used  herein  that are not  otherwise  defined  shall  have the  meanings
ascribed thereto in Appendix A to the Indenture.                                

        Interest on the Notes will be paid  monthly on each  Payment Date at the
Note  Rate for the  related  Interest  Accrual  Period.  The Note  Rate for each
Interest Accrual Period will be a floating rate equal to the lesser of (i) LIBOR
plus  0.12% per annum  and (ii)  10.00%  per  annum.  LIBOR for each  applicable
Interest  Accrual  Period will be  determined  on the second LIBOR  Business Day
immediately  preceding  (i) the Closing  Date in the case of the first  Interest
Accrual Period and (ii) the first day of each succeeding Interest Accrual Period
by the Indenture  Trustee as set forth in the Indenture.  All  determinations of
LIBOR by the  Indenture  Trustee  shall,  in the absence of manifest  error,  be
conclusive  for all purposes,  and each holder of this Note,  by accepting  this
Note,  agrees  to be bound by such  determination.  Interest  on this  Note will
accrue for each Payment Date from the most recent Payment Date on which interest
has been paid (in the case of the first Payment Date,  from the Closing Date) to
but excluding  such Payment Date.  Interest will be computed on the basis of the
actual  number of days in each  Interest  Accrual  Period and a year  assumed to
consist of 360 days. Principal of and interest on this Note shall be paid in the
manner specified on the reverse hereof.                                         

        Principal  of and  interest  on this  Note are  payable  in such coin or
currency  of the  United  States of  America  as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts.  All payments made by the Issuer
with respect to this Note shall be applied  first to interest due and payable on
this Note as provided above and then to the unpaid principal of this Note.      

        Reference  is made to the further  provisions  of this Note set forth on
the reverse  hereof,  which shall have the same effect as though fully set forth
on the face of this Note.                                                       

        Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Indenture Trustee whose name appears below by manual signature,  this Note shall
not be entitled to any benefit  under the  Indenture  referred to on the reverse
hereof, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.                              

        This  Note is one of a duly  authorized  issue of  Notes of the  Issuer,
designated as its GMACM Mortgage Loan-Backed Notes, Series 2000-HE3 (the "Series
2000-HE3  Notes"),  all issued under the Indenture,  to which  Indenture and all
indentures  supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective  rights and  obligations  thereunder  of the  Issuer,  the  Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders of the Series  2000-HE3  Notes.  The Series 2000-HE3
Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.                                

        The Series  2000-HE3 Notes  (collectively,  the "Notes") are and will be
equally and ratably  secured by the collateral  pledged as security  therefor as
provided in the Indenture.

        Principal  of and  interest on this Note will be payable on each Payment
Date,  commencing on November 27, 2000, as described in the Indenture.  "Payment
Date" means the  twenty-fifth  day of each month,  or, if any such date is not a
Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day.                            

        The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable
in full on the Payment Date in December 2031 pursuant to the  Indenture,  to the
extent  not  previously  paid  on a  prior  Payment  Date.  Notwithstanding  the
foregoing,  if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be  continuing,  then
the Indenture  Trustee or the Noteholders of Notes  representing not less than a
majority of the aggregate  Note Balance of the Notes may declare the Notes to be
immediately  due and  payable in the  manner  provided  in  Section  5.02 of the
Indenture.  All  principal  payments  on the Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders of Notes entitled thereto.                                          

        Any  installment of interest or principal,  if any,  payable on any Note
that is  punctually  paid or duly  provided for by the Issuer on the  applicable
Payment Date shall be paid to the related  Noteholder  on the  preceding  Record
Date,  by wire  transfer to an account  specified in writing by such  Noteholder
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date
or, if no such  instructions  have been delivered to the Indenture  Trustee,  by
check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to such  Noteholder's  address as
it appears in the Note Register,  the amount  required to be distributed to such
Noteholder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Noteholder's  Notes;  provided,
however,  that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such Noteholder any amount
required  to be  withheld  from a payment to such  Noteholder  by the Code.  Any
reduction in the principal  amount of this Note (or any one or more  predecessor
Notes)  effected by any payments  made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for
payment in full of the then remaining  unpaid principal amount of this Note on a
Payment Date,  then the Indenture  Trustee,  in the name of and on behalf of the
Issuer,  will notify the Person who was the registered  Noteholder  hereof as of
the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by
facsimile  prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall
be payable  only upon  presentation  and  surrender  of this Note at the address
specified in such notice of final payment.                                      

        As provided in the  Indenture  and  subject to certain  limitations  set
forth therein,  the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for  registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Indenture  Trustee,  duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument  of transfer  in form  satisfactory  to the  Indenture  Trustee  duly
executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder's attorney duly authorized
in  writing,   with  such  signature   guaranteed  by  an  "eligible   guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar,  which requirements
include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent's Medallion
Program  ("STAMP")  or  such  other  "signature  guarantee  program"  as  may be
determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution  for, STAMP,
all in accordance  with the Exchange Act, and thereupon one or more new Notes in
authorized  denominations  and in the same  aggregate  principal  amount will be

issued to the designated  transferee or  transferees.  No service charge will be
charged for any  registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the Note
Registrar  shall  require  payment  of a sum  sufficient  to  cover  any  tax or
governmental  charge that may be imposed in connection with any  registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note.                                              

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial  interest in
a Note,  covenants  and  agrees  that no  recourse  may be  taken,  directly  or
indirectly,  with respect to the  obligations of the Issuer,  the Owner Trustee,
the Sellers,  the Servicer,  the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes
or under  the  Indenture  or any  certificate  or  other  writing  delivered  in
connection therewith,  against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in
its individual  capacity,  (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer
or (iii) any partner, owner,  beneficiary,  agent, officer, director or employee
of the Indenture  Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual  capacity,  any
holder  of a  beneficial  interest  in the  Issuer,  the  Owner  Trustee  or the
Indenture  Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the
Owner  Trustee in its  individual  capacity,  except as any such Person may have
expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be
fully  liable,  to  the  extent  provided  by  applicable  law  for  any  unpaid
consideration  for  stock,  unpaid  capital  contribution  or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity.                                       

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note,  covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
Noteholder  or  Beneficial  Owner  will not at any time  institute  against  the
Depositor,  the Sellers, the Servicer,  GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or the Issuer,
or join in any  institution  against the Depositor,  the Sellers,  the Servicer,
GMAC  Mortgage  Group,  Inc. or the Issuer of, any  bankruptcy,  reorganization,
arrangement,  insolvency  or  liquidation  proceedings  under any United  States
federal or state  bankruptcy or similar law in connection  with any  obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the other Basic Documents.              

        The Issuer has entered into the  Indenture  and this Note is issued with
the intention  that, for federal,  state and local income,  single  business and
franchise tax purposes,  the Notes will qualify as  indebtedness  of the Issuer.
Each  Noteholder  of a Note, by its  acceptance  of a Note (and each  Beneficial
Owner of a Note by its acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), agrees to
treat the Notes  for  federal,  state and  local  income,  single  business  and
franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.                           

        Prior to the due presentment for  registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in the name of which this Note is registered (as of
the day of  determination  or as of such other date as may be  specified  in the
Indenture)  as the owner  hereof for all  purposes,  whether or not this Note be
overdue,  and none of the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.                                          

        The Indenture permits,  with certain  exceptions  therein provided,  the
amendment  thereof and the  modification  of the rights and  obligations  of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the Noteholders of the Series
2000-HE3  Notes under the  Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee with the consent of the Noteholders of Notes  representing a majority of

the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes then  Outstanding  and with prior notice
to the Rating Agencies.  The Indenture also contains  provisions  permitting the
Noteholders of Notes representing  specified percentages of the Note Balances of
the Series  2000-HE3  Notes, on behalf of the Noteholders of all Series 2000-HE3
Notes,  to  waive  compliance  by the  Issuer  with  certain  provisions  of the
Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their  consequences.
Any such  consent or waiver by the  Noteholder  of this Note (or any one of more
predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of  transfer  hereof or in  exchange  hereof or in lieu  hereof  whether  or not
notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.  The  Indenture  also
permits the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture  without the consent of Noteholders of the
Series  2000-HE3  Notes  issued  thereunder  but with prior notice to the Rating
Agencies.                                                                       

        The term  "Issuer" as used in this Note  includes  any  successor or the
Issuer under the Indenture.                                                     

        The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture,  under certain  circumstances,
to merge or consolidate,  subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the
Noteholders under the Indenture.                                                

        The Notes are  issuable  only in  registered  form in  denominations  as
provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.    

        This Note and the Indenture  shall be construed in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State  of New  York,  without  reference  to its  conflicts  of law
provisions,  and the obligations,  rights and remedies of the parties  hereunder
and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.                

        No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of
the  Indenture  shall alter or impair the  obligation  of the  Issuer,  which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at
the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.       

        Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  except as expressly
provided  in the  Basic  Documents,  none of  Wilmington  Trust  Company  in its
individual  capacity,  Wells  Fargo  Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  in its  individual
capacity,  any owner of a  beneficial  interest in the  Issuer,  or any of their
respective partners,  beneficiaries,  agents, officers, directors,  employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally  liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for,  the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or the
performance of, or the failure to perform, any of the covenants,  obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The Noteholder of this Note, by its
acceptance  hereof,  agrees  that,  except as  expressly  provided  in the Basic
Documents,  in the  case of an  Event  of  Default  under  the  Indenture,  such
Noteholder  shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency,
loss or claim therefrom;  provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
be taken to prevent  recourse  to, and  enforcement  against,  the assets of the
Issuer for any and all liabilities,  obligations and  undertakings  contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.

of  principal of the Class A-2 Notes (the  "Notes")  pursuant to Section 3.05 of
the indenture dated as of October 30, 2000 (the "Indenture"), between the Issuer
and Wells Fargo Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  as indenture  trustee  (the  "Indenture
Trustee");  provided,  however,  that the entire unpaid principal amount of this
Note shall be due and  payable on the  Payment  Date in  December  2031,  to the
extent not  previously  paid on a prior  Payment  Date.  Capitalized  terms used
herein that are not otherwise  defined shall have the meanings  ascribed thereto
in Appendix A to the Indenture.                                                 

        Interest on the Notes will be paid  monthly on each  Payment Date at the
Note Rate for the related Interest  Accrual Period.  The Note Rate for this Note
will be a fixed rate equal to 7.17% per annum. Interest on this Note will accrue
for each  Payment Date from the most recent  Payment Date on which  interest has
been paid (in the case of the first Payment Date,  from the Closing Date) to but
excluding  such  Payment  Date.  Interest  will be  computed on the basis of the
actual  number of days in each  Interest  Accrual  Period and a year  assumed to
consist of 360 days. Principal of and interest on this Note shall be paid in the

currency  of the  United  States of  America  as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts.  All payments made by the Issuer
with respect to this Note shall be applied  first to interest due and payable on
this Note as provided above and then to the unpaid principal of this Note.      

        Reference  is made to the further  provisions  of this Note set forth on
the reverse  hereof,  which shall have the same effect as though fully set forth
on the face of this Note.                                                       

        Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Indenture Trustee whose name appears below by manual signature,  this Note shall
not be entitled to any benefit  under the  Indenture  referred to on the reverse
hereof, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.                              

        This  Note is one of a duly  authorized  issue of  Notes of the  Issuer,
designated as its GMACM Mortgage Loan-Backed Notes, Series 2000-HE3 (the "Series
2000-HE3  Notes"),  all issued under the Indenture,  to which  Indenture and all
indentures  supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective  rights and  obligations  thereunder  of the  Issuer,  the  Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders of the Series  2000-HE3  Notes.  The Series 2000-HE3
Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.                                

        The Series 2000-HE3 Notes are and will be equally and ratably secured by
the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture.       

        Principal  of and  interest on this Note will be payable on each Payment
Date,  commencing on November 27, 2000, as described in the Indenture.  "Payment
Date" means the  twenty-fifth  day of each month,  or, if any such date is not a
Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day.                            

        The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable
in full on the Payment Date in December 2031 pursuant to the  Indenture,  to the
extent  not  previously  paid  on a  prior  Payment  Date.  Notwithstanding  the
foregoing,  if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be  continuing,  then
the Indenture  Trustee or the Noteholders of Notes  representing not less than a
majority of the aggregate  Note Balance of the Notes may declare the Notes to be
immediately  due and  payable in the  manner  provided  in  Section  5.02 of the
Indenture.  All  principal  payments  on the Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders of Notes entitled thereto.

        Any  installment of interest or principal,  if any,  payable on any Note
that is  punctually  paid or duly  provided for by the Issuer on the  applicable
Payment Date shall be paid to the related  Noteholder  on the  preceding  Record
Date,  by wire  transfer to an account  specified in writing by such  Noteholder
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date
or, if no such  instructions  have been delivered to the Indenture  Trustee,  by
check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to such  Noteholder's  address as
it appears in the Note Register,  the amount  required to be distributed to such
Noteholder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Noteholder's  Notes;  provided,
however,  that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such Noteholder any amount
required  to be  withheld  from a payment to such  Noteholder  by the Code.  Any
reduction in the principal  amount of this Note (or any one or more  predecessor
Notes)  effected by any payments  made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for
payment in full of the then remaining  unpaid principal amount of this Note on a
Payment Date,  then the Indenture  Trustee,  in the name of and on behalf of the
Issuer,  will notify the Person who was the registered  Noteholder  hereof as of
the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by
facsimile  prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall
be payable  only upon  presentation  and  surrender  of this Note at the address
specified in such notice of final payment.                                      

        As provided in the  Indenture  and  subject to certain  limitations  set
forth therein,  the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for  registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Indenture  Trustee,  duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument  of transfer  in form  satisfactory  to the  Indenture  Trustee  duly
executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder's attorney duly authorized
in  writing,   with  such  signature   guaranteed  by  an  "eligible   guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar,  which requirements
include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent's Medallion
Program  ("STAMP")  or  such  other  "signature  guarantee  program"  as  may be
determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution  for, STAMP,
all in accordance  with the Exchange Act, and thereupon one or more new Notes in
authorized  denominations  and in the same  aggregate  principal  amount will be
issued to the designated  transferee or  transferees.  No service charge will be
charged for any  registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the Note
Registrar  shall  require  payment  of a sum  sufficient  to  cover  any  tax or
governmental  charge that may be imposed in connection with any  registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note.                                              

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial  interest in
a Note,  covenants  and  agrees  that no  recourse  may be  taken,  directly  or
indirectly,  with respect to the  obligations of the Issuer,  the Owner Trustee,
the Sellers,  the Servicer,  the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes
or under  the  Indenture  or any  certificate  or  other  writing  delivered  in
connection therewith,  against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in
its individual  capacity,  (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer
or (iii) any partner, owner,  beneficiary,  agent, officer, director or employee

of the Indenture  Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual  capacity,  any
holder  of a  beneficial  interest  in the  Issuer,  the  Owner  Trustee  or the
Indenture  Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the
Owner  Trustee in its  individual  capacity,  except as any such Person may have
expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be
fully  liable,  to  the  extent  provided  by  applicable  law  for  any  unpaid
consideration  for  stock,  unpaid  capital  contribution  or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity.                                       

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note,  covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
Noteholder  or  Beneficial  Owner  will not at any time  institute  against  the
Depositor,  the Sellers, the Servicer,  GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or the Issuer,
or join in any  institution  against the Depositor,  the Sellers,  the Servicer,
GMAC  Mortgage  Group,  Inc. or the Issuer of, any  bankruptcy,  reorganization,
arrangement,  insolvency  or  liquidation  proceedings  under any United  States
federal or state  bankruptcy or similar law in connection  with any  obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the other Basic Documents.              

        The Issuer has entered into the  Indenture  and this Note is issued with
the intention  that, for federal,  state and local income,  single  business and
franchise tax purposes,  the Notes will qualify as  indebtedness  of the Issuer.
Each  Noteholder  of a Note, by its  acceptance  of a Note (and each  Beneficial
Owner of a Note by its acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), agrees to
treat the Notes  for  federal,  state and  local  income,  single  business  and
franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.                           

        Prior to the due presentment for  registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in the name of which this Note is registered (as of
the day of  determination  or as of such other date as may be  specified  in the
Indenture)  as the owner  hereof for all  purposes,  whether or not this Note be
overdue,  and none of the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.                                          

        The Indenture permits,  with certain  exceptions  therein provided,  the
amendment  thereof and the  modification  of the rights and  obligations  of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the Noteholders of the Series
2000-HE3  Notes under the  Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee with the consent of the Noteholders of Notes  representing a majority of
the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes then  Outstanding  and with prior notice
to the Rating Agencies.  The Indenture also contains  provisions  permitting the
Noteholders of Notes representing  specified percentages of the Note Balances of
the Series  2000-HE3  Notes, on behalf of the Noteholders of all Series 2000-HE3
Notes,  to  waive  compliance  by the  Issuer  with  certain  provisions  of the
Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their  consequences.
Any such  consent or waiver by the  Noteholder  of this Note (or any one of more
predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of  transfer  hereof or in  exchange  hereof or in lieu  hereof  whether  or not
notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.  The  Indenture  also
permits the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture  without the consent of Noteholders of the
Series  2000-HE3  Notes  issued  thereunder  but with prior notice to the Rating
Agencies.

        The term  "Issuer" as used in this Note  includes  any  successor or the

        The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture,  under certain  circumstances,
to merge or consolidate,  subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the

        This Note and the Indenture  shall be construed in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State  of New  York,  without  reference  to its  conflicts  of law
provisions,  and the obligations,  rights and remedies of the parties  hereunder
and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.                

        No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of
the  Indenture  shall alter or impair the  obligation  of the  Issuer,  which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at
the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.       

        Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  except as expressly
provided  in the  Basic  Documents,  none of  Wilmington  Trust  Company  in its
individual  capacity,  Wells  Fargo  Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  in its  individual
capacity,  any owner of a  beneficial  interest in the  Issuer,  or any of their
respective partners,  beneficiaries,  agents, officers, directors,  employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally  liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for,  the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or the
performance of, or the failure to perform, any of the covenants,  obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The Noteholder of this Note, by its
acceptance  hereof,  agrees  that,  except as  expressly  provided  in the Basic
Documents,  in the  case of an  Event  of  Default  under  the  Indenture,  such
Noteholder  shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency,
loss or claim therefrom;  provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
be taken to prevent  recourse  to, and  enforcement  against,  the assets of the
Issuer for any and all liabilities,  obligations and  undertakings  contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.

        GMACM Mortgage Loan Trust 2000-HE3,  a business trust duly organized and
existing  under the laws of the State of  Delaware  (herein  referred  to as the
"Issuer"),  for  value  received,  hereby  promises  to pay to Cede & Co. or its
registered assigns,  the principal sum of sixty two million eight hundred eighty
five thousand dollars  ($62,885,000),  payable on each Payment Date in an amount
equal to the pro rata  portion  allocable  hereto  (based  on the  Initial  Note
Balance  specified above and the Initial Note Balance of all Class A-3 Notes) of
the aggregate  amount,  if any, payable from the Note Payment Account in respect
of  principal of the Class A-3 Notes (the  "Notes")  pursuant to Section 3.05 of
the indenture dated as of October 30, 2000 (the "Indenture"), between the Issuer
and Wells Fargo Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  as indenture  trustee  (the  "Indenture

Trustee");  provided,  however,  that the entire unpaid principal amount of this
Note shall be due and  payable on the  Payment  Date in  December  2031,  to the
extent not  previously  paid on a prior  Payment  Date.  Capitalized  terms used
herein that are not otherwise  defined shall have the meanings  ascribed thereto
in Appendix A to the Indenture.                                                 

        Interest on the Notes will be paid  monthly on each  Payment Date at the
Note Rate for the related Interest  Accrual Period.  The Note Rate for this Note
will be a fixed rate equal to 7.36% per annum.  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,
the Note Rate on this Note will  increase by 0.50% to 7.86% per annum  beginning
with the first Interest  Accrual Period for the Class A-3 Notes commencing after
the first Payment Date on which the Principal  Balance of the Mortgage  Loans is
less than 10% of the initial Pool Balance. Interest on this Note will accrue for
each Payment Date from the most recent  Payment Date on which  interest has been
paid (in the case of the  first  Payment  Date,  from the  Closing  Date) to but
excluding  such  Payment  Date.  Interest  will be  computed on the basis of the
actual  number of days in each  Interest  Accrual  Period and a year  assumed to
consist of 360 days. Principal of and interest on this Note shall be paid in the
manner specified on the reverse hereof.                                         

        Principal  of and  interest  on this  Note are  payable  in such coin or
currency  of the  United  States of  America  as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts.  All payments made by the Issuer
with respect to this Note shall be applied  first to interest due and payable on
this Note as provided above and then to the unpaid principal of this Note.      

        Reference  is made to the further  provisions  of this Note set forth on
the reverse  hereof,  which shall have the same effect as though fully set forth
on the face of this Note.                                                       

        Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Indenture Trustee whose name appears below by manual signature,  this Note shall
not be entitled to any benefit  under the  Indenture  referred to on the reverse
hereof, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.                              

        This  Note is one of a duly  authorized  issue of  Notes of the  Issuer,
designated as its GMACM Mortgage Loan-Backed Notes, Series 2000-HE3 (the "Series
2000-HE3  Notes"),  all issued under the Indenture,  to which  Indenture and all
indentures  supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective  rights and  obligations  thereunder  of the  Issuer,  the  Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders of the Series  2000-HE3  Notes.  The Series 2000-HE3
Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.                                

        The Series 2000-HE3 Notes are and will be equally and ratably secured by
the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture.       

        Principal  of and  interest on this Note will be payable on each Payment
Date,  commencing on November 27, 2000, as described in the Indenture.  "Payment
Date" means the  twenty-fifth  day of each month,  or, if any such date is not a
Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day.                            

        The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable
in full on the Payment Date in December 2031 pursuant to the  Indenture,  to the
extent  not  previously  paid  on a  prior  Payment  Date.  Notwithstanding  the

foregoing,  if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be  continuing,  then
the Indenture  Trustee or the Noteholders of Notes  representing not less than a
majority of the aggregate  Note Balance of the Notes may declare the Notes to be
immediately  due and  payable in the  manner  provided  in  Section  5.02 of the
Indenture.  All  principal  payments  on the Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders of Notes entitled thereto.                                          

        Any  installment of interest or principal,  if any,  payable on any Note
that is  punctually  paid or duly  provided for by the Issuer on the  applicable
Payment Date shall be paid to the related  Noteholder  on the  preceding  Record
Date,  by wire  transfer to an account  specified in writing by such  Noteholder
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date
or, if no such  instructions  have been delivered to the Indenture  Trustee,  by
check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to such  Noteholder's  address as
it appears in the Note Register,  the amount  required to be distributed to such
Noteholder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Noteholder's  Notes;  provided,
however,  that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such Noteholder any amount
required  to be  withheld  from a payment to such  Noteholder  by the Code.  Any
reduction in the principal  amount of this Note (or any one or more  predecessor
Notes)  effected by any payments  made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for
payment in full of the then remaining  unpaid principal amount of this Note on a
Payment Date,  then the Indenture  Trustee,  in the name of and on behalf of the
Issuer,  will notify the Person who was the registered  Noteholder  hereof as of
the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by
facsimile  prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall
be payable  only upon  presentation  and  surrender  of this Note at the address
specified in such notice of final payment.                                      

        As provided in the  Indenture  and  subject to certain  limitations  set
forth therein,  the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for  registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Indenture  Trustee,  duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument  of transfer  in form  satisfactory  to the  Indenture  Trustee  duly
executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder's attorney duly authorized
in  writing,   with  such  signature   guaranteed  by  an  "eligible   guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar,  which requirements
include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent's Medallion
Program  ("STAMP")  or  such  other  "signature  guarantee  program"  as  may be
determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution  for, STAMP,
all in accordance  with the Exchange Act, and thereupon one or more new Notes in
authorized  denominations  and in the same  aggregate  principal  amount will be
issued to the designated  transferee or  transferees.  No service charge will be
charged for any  registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the Note
Registrar  shall  require  payment  of a sum  sufficient  to  cover  any  tax or
governmental  charge that may be imposed in connection with any  registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note.                                              

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial  interest in
a Note,  covenants  and  agrees  that no  recourse  may be  taken,  directly  or
indirectly,  with respect to the  obligations of the Issuer,  the Owner Trustee,
the Sellers,  the Servicer,  the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes
or under  the  Indenture  or any  certificate  or  other  writing  delivered  in

connection therewith,  against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in
its individual  capacity,  (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer
or (iii) any partner, owner,  beneficiary,  agent, officer, director or employee
of the Indenture  Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual  capacity,  any
holder  of a  beneficial  interest  in the  Issuer,  the  Owner  Trustee  or the
Indenture  Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the
Owner  Trustee in its  individual  capacity,  except as any such Person may have
expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be
fully  liable,  to  the  extent  provided  by  applicable  law  for  any  unpaid
consideration  for  stock,  unpaid  capital  contribution  or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity.                                       

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note,  covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
Noteholder  or  Beneficial  Owner  will not at any time  institute  against  the
Depositor,  the Sellers, the Servicer,  GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or the Issuer,
or join in any  institution  against the Depositor,  the Sellers,  the Servicer,
GMAC  Mortgage  Group,  Inc. or the Issuer of, any  bankruptcy,  reorganization,
arrangement,  insolvency  or  liquidation  proceedings  under any United  States
federal or state  bankruptcy or similar law in connection  with any  obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the other Basic Documents.              

        The Issuer has entered into the  Indenture  and this Note is issued with
the intention  that, for federal,  state and local income,  single  business and
franchise tax purposes,  the Notes will qualify as  indebtedness  of the Issuer.
Each  Noteholder  of a Note, by its  acceptance  of a Note (and each  Beneficial
Owner of a Note by its acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), agrees to
treat the Notes  for  federal,  state and  local  income,  single  business  and
franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.                           

        Prior to the due presentment for  registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in the name of which this Note is registered (as of
the day of  determination  or as of such other date as may be  specified  in the
Indenture)  as the owner  hereof for all  purposes,  whether or not this Note be
overdue,  and none of the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.                                          

        The Indenture permits,  with certain  exceptions  therein provided,  the
amendment  thereof and the  modification  of the rights and  obligations  of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the Noteholders of the Series
2000-HE3  Notes under the  Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee with the consent of the Noteholders of Notes  representing a majority of
the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes then  Outstanding  and with prior notice
to the Rating Agencies.  The Indenture also contains  provisions  permitting the
Noteholders of Notes representing  specified percentages of the Note Balances of
the Series  2000-HE3  Notes, on behalf of the Noteholders of all Series 2000-HE3
Notes,  to  waive  compliance  by the  Issuer  with  certain  provisions  of the
Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their  consequences.
Any such  consent or waiver by the  Noteholder  of this Note (or any one of more
predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration

of  transfer  hereof or in  exchange  hereof or in lieu  hereof  whether  or not
notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.  The  Indenture  also
permits the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture  without the consent of Noteholders of the
Series  2000-HE3  Notes  issued  thereunder  but with prior notice to the Rating
Agencies.                                                                       

        The term  "Issuer" as used in this Note  includes  any  successor or the
Issuer under the Indenture.                                                     

        The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture,  under certain  circumstances,
to merge or consolidate,  subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the
Noteholders of Notes under the Indenture.                                       

        The Notes are  issuable  only in  registered  form in  denominations  as
provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.    

        This Note and the Indenture  shall be construed in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State  of New  York,  without  reference  to its  conflicts  of law
provisions,  and the obligations,  rights and remedies of the parties  hereunder
and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.                

        No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of
the  Indenture  shall alter or impair the  obligation  of the  Issuer,  which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at
the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.       

        Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  except as expressly
provided  in the  Basic  Documents,  none of  Wilmington  Trust  Company  in its
individual  capacity,  Wells  Fargo  Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  in its  individual
capacity,  any owner of a  beneficial  interest in the  Issuer,  or any of their
respective partners,  beneficiaries,  agents, officers, directors,  employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally  liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for,  the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or the
performance of, or the failure to perform, any of the covenants,  obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The Noteholder of this Note, by its
acceptance  hereof,  agrees  that,  except as  expressly  provided  in the Basic
Documents,  in the  case of an  Event  of  Default  under  the  Indenture,  such
Noteholder  shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency,
loss or claim therefrom;  provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
be taken to prevent  recourse  to, and  enforcement  against,  the assets of the
Issuer for any and all liabilities,  obligations and  undertakings  contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.

Note shall be due and  payable on the  Payment  Date in  December  2031,  to the
extent not  previously  paid on a prior  Payment  Date.  Capitalized  terms used
herein that are not otherwise  defined shall have the meanings  ascribed thereto
in Appendix A to the Indenture.                                                 

        Interest on the Notes will be paid  monthly on each  Payment Date at the

the Indenture  Trustee or the Noteholders of Notes  representing not less than a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes, may declare the Notes to be
immediately  due and  payable in the  manner  provided  in  Section  5.02 of the
Indenture.  All  principal  payments  on the Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders of Notes entitled thereto.                                          

        Any  installment of interest or principal,  if any,  payable on any Note
that is  punctually  paid or duly  provided for by the Issuer on the  applicable
Payment Date shall be paid to the related  Noteholder  on the  preceding  Record
Date,  by wire  transfer to an account  specified in writing by such  Noteholder
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date
or, if no such  instructions  have been delivered to the Indenture  Trustee,  by
check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to such  Noteholder's  address as
it appears in the Note Register,  the amount  required to be distributed to such
Noteholder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Noteholder's  Notes;  provided,
however,  that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such Noteholder any amount
required  to be  withheld  from a payment to such  Noteholder  by the Code.  Any
reduction in the principal  amount of this Note (or any one or more  predecessor
Notes)  effected by any payments  made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for
payment in full of the then remaining  unpaid principal amount of this Note on a
Payment Date,  then the Indenture  Trustee,  in the name of and on behalf of the
Issuer,  will notify the Person who was the registered  Noteholder  hereof as of
the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by
facsimile  prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall
be payable  only upon  presentation  and  surrender  of this Note at the address
specified in such notice of final payment.                                      

        As provided in the  Indenture  and  subject to certain  limitations  set
forth therein,  the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for  registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Indenture  Trustee,  duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument  of transfer  in form  satisfactory  to the  Indenture  Trustee  duly
executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder's attorney duly authorized
in  writing,   with  such  signature   guaranteed  by  an  "eligible   guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar,  which requirements
include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent's Medallion
Program  ("STAMP")  or  such  other  "signature  guarantee  program"  as  may be
determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution  for, STAMP,
all in accordance  with the Exchange Act, and thereupon one or more new Notes in
authorized  denominations  and in the same  aggregate  principal  amount will be
issued to the designated  transferee or  transferees.  No service charge will be
charged for any  registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the Note
Registrar  shall  require  payment  of a sum  sufficient  to  cover  any  tax or
governmental  charge that may be imposed in connection with any  registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note.                                              

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial  interest in
a Note,  covenants  and  agrees  that no  recourse  may be  taken,  directly  or
indirectly,  with respect to the  obligations of the Issuer,  the Owner Trustee,

the Sellers,  the Servicer,  the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes
or under  the  Indenture  or any  certificate  or  other  writing  delivered  in
connection therewith,  against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in
its individual  capacity,  (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer
or (iii) any partner, owner,  beneficiary,  agent, officer, director or employee
of the Indenture  Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual  capacity,  any
holder  of a  beneficial  interest  in the  Issuer,  the  Owner  Trustee  or the
Indenture  Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the
Owner  Trustee in its  individual  capacity,  except as any such Person may have
expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be
fully  liable,  to  the  extent  provided  by  applicable  law  for  any  unpaid
consideration  for  stock,  unpaid  capital  contribution  or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity.                                       

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note,  covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
Noteholder  or  Beneficial  Owner  will not at any time  institute  against  the
Depositor,  the Sellers, the Servicer,  GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or the Issuer,
or join in any  institution  against the Depositor,  the Sellers,  the Servicer,
GMAC  Mortgage  Group,  Inc. or the Issuer of, any  bankruptcy,  reorganization,
arrangement,  insolvency  or  liquidation  proceedings  under any United  States
federal or state  bankruptcy or similar law in connection  with any  obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the other Basic Documents.              

        The Issuer has entered into the  Indenture  and this Note is issued with
the intention  that, for federal,  state and local income,  single  business and
franchise tax purposes,  the Notes will qualify as  indebtedness  of the Issuer.
Each  Noteholder  of a Note, by its  acceptance  of a Note (and each  Beneficial
Owner of a Note by its acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), agrees to
treat the Notes  for  federal,  state and  local  income,  single  business  and
franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.                           

        Prior to the due presentment for  registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in the name of which this Note is registered (as of
the day of  determination  or as of such other date as may be  specified  in the
Indenture)  as the owner  hereof for all  purposes,  whether or not this Note be
overdue,  and none of the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.                                          

        The Indenture permits,  with certain  exceptions  therein provided,  the
amendment  thereof and the  modification  of the rights and  obligations  of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the Noteholders of the Series
2000-HE3  Notes under the  Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee with the consent of the Noteholders of Notes  representing a majority of
the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes then  Outstanding  and with prior notice
to the Rating Agencies.  The Indenture also contains  provisions  permitting the
Noteholders of Notes representing  specified percentages of the Note Balances of
the Series  2000-HE3  Notes, on behalf of the Noteholders of all Series 2000-HE3
Notes,  to  waive  compliance  by the  Issuer  with  certain  provisions  of the
Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their  consequences.
Any such  consent or waiver by the  Noteholder  of this Note (or any one of more
predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon

all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of  transfer  hereof or in  exchange  hereof or in lieu  hereof  whether  or not
notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.  The  Indenture  also
permits the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture  without the consent of Noteholders of the
Series  2000-HE3  Notes  issued  thereunder  but with prior notice to the Rating
Agencies.                                                                       
        The term  "Issuer" as used in this Note  includes  any  successor or the
Issuer under the Indenture.                                                     

        The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture,  under certain  circumstances,
to merge or consolidate,  subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the
Noteholders of Notes under the Indenture.                                       

        The Notes are  issuable  only in  registered  form in  denominations  as
provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.    

        This Note and the Indenture  shall be construed in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State  of New  York,  without  reference  to its  conflicts  of law
provisions,  and the obligations,  rights and remedies of the parties  hereunder
and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.                

        No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of
the  Indenture  shall alter or impair the  obligation  of the  Issuer,  which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at
the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.       

        Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  except as expressly
provided  in the  Basic  Documents,  none of  Wilmington  Trust  Company  in its
individual  capacity,  Wells  Fargo  Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  in its  individual
capacity,  any owner of a  beneficial  interest in the  Issuer,  or any of their
respective partners,  beneficiaries,  agents, officers, directors,  employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally  liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for,  the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or the
performance of, or the failure to perform, any of the covenants,  obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The Noteholder of this Note, by its
acceptance  hereof,  agrees  that,  except as  expressly  provided  in the Basic
Documents,  in the  case of an  Event  of  Default  under  the  Indenture,  such
Noteholder  shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency,
loss or claim therefrom;  provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
be taken to prevent  recourse  to, and  enforcement  against,  the assets of the
Issuer for any and all liabilities,  obligations and  undertakings  contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.

        Interest on the Notes will be paid  monthly on each  Payment Date at the

the Indenture  Trustee or the Noteholders of Notes  representing not less than a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes, may declare the Notes to be
immediately  due and  payable in the  manner  provided  in  Section  5.02 of the
Indenture.  All  principal  payments  on the Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders of Notes entitled thereto.                                          

        Any  installment of interest or principal,  if any,  payable on any Note
that is  punctually  paid or duly  provided for by the Issuer on the  applicable
Payment Date shall be paid to the related  Noteholder  on the  preceding  Record
Date,  by wire  transfer to an account  specified in writing by such  Noteholder
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date
or, if no such  instructions  have been delivered to the Indenture  Trustee,  by
check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to such  Noteholder's  address as
it appears in the Note Register,  the amount  required to be distributed to such
Noteholder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Noteholder's  Notes;  provided,
however,  that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such Noteholder any amount
required  to be  withheld  from a payment to such  Noteholder  by the Code.  Any
reduction in the principal  amount of this Note (or any one or more  predecessor
Notes)  effected by any payments  made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for
payment in full of the then remaining  unpaid principal amount of this Note on a
Payment Date,  then the Indenture  Trustee,  in the name of and on behalf of the
Issuer,  will notify the Person who was the registered  Noteholder  hereof as of
the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by
facsimile  prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall
be payable  only upon  presentation  and  surrender  of this Note at the address
specified in such notice of final payment.                                      

        As provided in the  Indenture  and  subject to certain  limitations  set
forth therein,  the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for  registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Indenture  Trustee,  duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument  of transfer  in form  satisfactory  to the  Indenture  Trustee  duly
executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder's attorney duly authorized
in  writing,   with  such  signature   guaranteed  by  an  "eligible   guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar,  which requirements
include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent's Medallion
Program  ("STAMP")  or  such  other  "signature  guarantee  program"  as  may be
determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution  for, STAMP,
all in accordance  with the Exchange Act, and thereupon one or more new Notes in
authorized  denominations  and in the same  aggregate  principal  amount will be
issued to the designated  transferee or  transferees.  No service charge will be
charged for any  registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the Note
Registrar  shall  require  payment  of a sum  sufficient  to  cover  any  tax or
governmental  charge that may be imposed in connection with any  registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note.                                              

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial  interest in
a Note,  covenants  and  agrees  that no  recourse  may be  taken,  directly  or
indirectly,  with respect to the  obligations of the Issuer,  the Owner Trustee,
the Sellers,  the Servicer,  the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes

or under  the  Indenture  or any  certificate  or  other  writing  delivered  in
connection therewith,  against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in
its individual  capacity,  (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer
or (iii) any partner, owner,  beneficiary,  agent, officer, director or employee
of the Indenture  Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual  capacity,  any
holder  of a  beneficial  interest  in the  Issuer,  the  Owner  Trustee  or the
Indenture  Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the
Owner  Trustee in its  individual  capacity,  except as any such Person may have
expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be
fully  liable,  to  the  extent  provided  by  applicable  law  for  any  unpaid
consideration  for  stock,  unpaid  capital  contribution  or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity.                                       

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note,  covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
Noteholder  or  Beneficial  Owner  will not at any time  institute  against  the
Depositor,  the Sellers, the Servicer,  GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or the Issuer,
or join in any  institution  against the Depositor,  the Sellers,  the Servicer,
GMAC  Mortgage  Group,  Inc. or the Issuer of, any  bankruptcy,  reorganization,
arrangement,  insolvency  or  liquidation  proceedings  under any United  States
federal or state  bankruptcy or similar law in connection  with any  obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the other Basic Documents.              

        The Issuer has entered into the  Indenture  and this Note is issued with
the intention  that, for federal,  state and local income,  single  business and
franchise tax purposes,  the Notes will qualify as  indebtedness  of the Issuer.
Each  Noteholder  of a Note, by its  acceptance  of a Note (and each  Beneficial
Owner of a Note by its acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), agrees to
treat the Notes  for  federal,  state and  local  income,  single  business  and
franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.                           

        Prior to the due presentment for  registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in the name of which this Note is registered (as of
the day of  determination  or as of such other date as may be  specified  in the
Indenture)  as the owner  hereof for all  purposes,  whether or not this Note be
overdue,  and none of the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.                                          

        The Indenture permits,  with certain  exceptions  therein provided,  the
amendment  thereof and the  modification  of the rights and  obligations  of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the Noteholders of the Series
2000-HE3  Notes under the  Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee with the consent of the Noteholders of Notes  representing a majority of
the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes then  Outstanding  and with prior notice
to the Rating Agencies.  The Indenture also contains  provisions  permitting the
Noteholders of Notes representing  specified percentages of the Note Balances of
the Series  2000-HE3  Notes, on behalf of the Noteholders of all Series 2000-HE3
Notes,  to  waive  compliance  by the  Issuer  with  certain  provisions  of the
Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their  consequences.
Any such  consent or waiver by the  Noteholder  of this Note (or any one of more
predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of  transfer  hereof or in  exchange  hereof or in lieu  hereof  whether  or not

notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.  The  Indenture  also
permits the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture  without the consent of Noteholders of the
Series  2000-HE3  Notes  issued  thereunder  but with prior notice to the Rating
Agencies.                                                                       

        The term  "Issuer" as used in this Note  includes  any  successor or the
Issuer under the Indenture.                                                     

        The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture,  under certain  circumstances,
to merge or consolidate,  subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the
Noteholders of Notes under the Indenture.                                       

        The Notes are  issuable  only in  registered  form in  denominations  as
provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.    

        This Note and the Indenture  shall be construed in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State  of New  York,  without  reference  to its  conflicts  of law
provisions,  and the obligations,  rights and remedies of the parties  hereunder
and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.                

        No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of
the  Indenture  shall alter or impair the  obligation  of the  Issuer,  which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at
the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.       

        Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  except as expressly
provided  in the  Basic  Documents,  none of  Wilmington  Trust  Company  in its
individual  capacity,  Wells  Fargo  Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  in its  individual
capacity,  any owner of a  beneficial  interest in the  Issuer,  or any of their
respective partners,  beneficiaries,  agents, officers, directors,  employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally  liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for,  the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or the
performance of, or the failure to perform, any of the covenants,  obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The Noteholder of this Note, by its
acceptance  hereof,  agrees  that,  except as  expressly  provided  in the Basic
Documents,  in the  case of an  Event  of  Default  under  the  Indenture,  such
Noteholder  shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency,
loss or claim therefrom;  provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
be taken to prevent  recourse  to, and  enforcement  against,  the assets of the
Issuer for any and all liabilities,  obligations and  undertakings  contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.

Trustee");  provided,  however,  that the entire unpaid principal amount of this
Note shall be due and  payable on the  Payment  Date in  December  2031,  to the
extent not  previously  paid on a prior  Payment  Date.  Capitalized  terms used
herein that are not otherwise  defined shall have the meanings  ascribed thereto
in Appendix A to the Indenture.                                                 

        Interest on the Notes will be paid  monthly on each  Payment Date at the
Note  Rate for the  related  Interest  Accrual  Period.  The Note  Rate for each
Interest Accrual Period will be a floating rate equal to the lesser of (i) LIBOR
plus  0.13% per annum  and (ii)  10.00%  per  annum.  LIBOR for each  applicable
Interest  Accrual  Period will be  determined  on the second LIBOR  Business Day
immediately  preceding  (i) the Closing  Date in the case of the first  Interest
Accrual Period and (ii) the first day of each succeeding Interest Accrual Period
by the Indenture  Trustee as set forth in the Indenture.  All  determinations of
LIBOR by the  Indenture  Trustee  shall,  in the absence of manifest  error,  be
conclusive  for all purposes,  and each holder of this Note,  by accepting  this
Note,  agrees  to be bound by such  determination.  Interest  on this  Note will
accrue for each Payment Date from the most recent Payment Date on which interest
has been paid (in the case of the first Payment Date,  from the Closing Date) to
but excluding  such Payment Date.  Interest will be computed on the basis of the
actual  number of days in each  Interest  Accrual  Period and a year  assumed to
consist of 360 days. Principal of and interest on this Note shall be paid in the
manner specified on the reverse hereof.                                         

        Principal  of and  interest  on this  Note are  payable  in such coin or
currency  of the  United  States of  America  as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts.  All payments made by the Issuer
with respect to this Note shall be applied  first to interest due and payable on
this Note as provided above and then to the unpaid principal of this Note.      

        Reference  is made to the further  provisions  of this Note set forth on
the reverse  hereof,  which shall have the same effect as though fully set forth
on the face of this Note.                                                       

        Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Indenture Trustee whose name appears below by manual signature,  this Note shall
not be entitled to any benefit  under the  Indenture  referred to on the reverse
hereof, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.                              

        This  Note is one of a duly  authorized  issue of  Notes of the  Issuer,
designated as its GMACM Mortgage Loan-Backed Notes, Series 2000-HE3 (the "Series
2000-HE3  Notes"),  all issued under the Indenture,  to which  Indenture and all
indentures  supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective  rights and  obligations  thereunder  of the  Issuer,  the  Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders of the Series  2000-HE3  Notes.  The Series 2000-HE3
Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.                                

        The Series 2000-HE3 Notes are and will be equally and ratably secured by
the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture.       

        Principal  of and  interest on this Note will be payable on each Payment
Date,  commencing on November 27, 2000, as described in the Indenture.  "Payment
Date" means the  twenty-fifth  day of each month,  or, if any such date is not a

        The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable
in full on the Payment Date in December 2031 pursuant to the  Indenture,  to the
extent  not  previously  paid  on a  prior  Payment  Date.  Notwithstanding  the
foregoing,  if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be  continuing,  then
the Indenture  Trustee or the Noteholders of Notes  representing not less than a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes, may declare the Notes to be
immediately  due and  payable in the  manner  provided  in  Section  5.02 of the
Indenture.  All  principal  payments  on the Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders of Notes entitled thereto.                                          

        Any  installment of interest or principal,  if any,  payable on any Note
that is  punctually  paid or duly  provided for by the Issuer on the  applicable
Payment Date shall be paid to the related  Noteholder  on the  preceding  Record
Date,  by wire  transfer to an account  specified in writing by such  Noteholder
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date
or, if no such  instructions  have been delivered to the Indenture  Trustee,  by
check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to such  Noteholder's  address as
it appears in the Note Register,  the amount  required to be distributed to such
Noteholder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Noteholder's  Notes;  provided,
however,  that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such Noteholder any amount
required  to be  withheld  from a payment to such  Noteholder  by the Code.  Any
reduction in the principal  amount of this Note (or any one or more  predecessor
Notes)  effected by any payments  made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for
payment in full of the then remaining  unpaid principal amount of this Note on a
Payment Date,  then the Indenture  Trustee,  in the name of and on behalf of the
Issuer,  will notify the Person who was the registered  Noteholder  hereof as of
the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by
facsimile  prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall
be payable  only upon  presentation  and  surrender  of this Note at the address
specified in such notice of final payment.                                      

        As provided in the  Indenture  and  subject to certain  limitations  set
forth therein,  the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for  registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial  interest in
a Note,  covenants  and  agrees  that no  recourse  may be  taken,  directly  or
indirectly,  with respect to the  obligations of the Issuer,  the Owner Trustee,
the Sellers,  the Servicer,  the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes
or under  the  Indenture  or any  certificate  or  other  writing  delivered  in
connection therewith,  against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in
its individual  capacity,  (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer
or (iii) any partner, owner,  beneficiary,  agent, officer, director or employee
of the Indenture  Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual  capacity,  any
holder  of a  beneficial  interest  in the  Issuer,  the  Owner  Trustee  or the
Indenture  Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the
Owner  Trustee in its  individual  capacity,  except as any such Person may have
expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be
fully  liable,  to  the  extent  provided  by  applicable  law  for  any  unpaid
consideration  for  stock,  unpaid  capital  contribution  or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity.                                       

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note,  covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
Noteholder  or  Beneficial  Owner  will not at any time  institute  against  the
Depositor,  the Sellers, the Servicer,  GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or the Issuer,
or join in any  institution  against the Depositor,  the Sellers,  the Servicer,
GMAC  Mortgage  Group,  Inc. or the Issuer of, any  bankruptcy,  reorganization,
arrangement,  insolvency  or  liquidation  proceedings  under any United  States
federal or state  bankruptcy or similar law in connection  with any  obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the other Basic Documents.              

        The Issuer has entered into the  Indenture  and this Note is issued with
the intention  that, for federal,  state and local income,  single  business and
franchise tax purposes,  the Notes will qualify as  indebtedness  of the Issuer.
Each  Noteholder  of a Note, by its  acceptance  of a Note (and each  Beneficial
Owner of a Note by its acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), agrees to
treat the Notes  for  federal,  state and  local  income,  single  business  and
franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.                           

        Prior to the due presentment for  registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in the name of which this Note is registered (as of
the day of  determination  or as of such other date as may be  specified  in the
Indenture)  as the owner  hereof for all  purposes,  whether or not this Note be
overdue,  and none of the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.                                          

        The Indenture permits,  with certain  exceptions  therein provided,  the
amendment  thereof and the  modification  of the rights and  obligations  of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the Noteholders of the Series
2000-HE3  Notes under the  Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee with the consent of the Noteholders of Notes  representing a majority of
the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes then  Outstanding  and with prior notice
to the Rating Agencies.  The Indenture also contains  provisions  permitting the
Noteholders of Notes representing  specified percentages of the Note Balances of
the Series  2000-HE3  Notes, on behalf of the Noteholders of all Series 2000-HE3

Notes,  to  waive  compliance  by the  Issuer  with  certain  provisions  of the
Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their  consequences.
Any such  consent or waiver by the  Noteholder  of this Note (or any one of more
predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of  transfer  hereof or in  exchange  hereof or in lieu  hereof  whether  or not
notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.  The  Indenture  also
permits the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture  without the consent of Noteholders of the
Series  2000-HE3  Notes  issued  thereunder  but with prior notice to the Rating
Agencies.                                                                       

        The term  "Issuer" as used in this Note  includes  any  successor or the
Issuer under the Indenture.                                                     

        The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture,  under certain  circumstances,
to merge or consolidate,  subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the
Noteholders of Notes under the Indenture.                                       

        The Notes are  issuable  only in  registered  form in  denominations  as
provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.    

        This Note and the Indenture  shall be construed in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State  of New  York,  without  reference  to its  conflicts  of law
provisions,  and the obligations,  rights and remedies of the parties  hereunder
and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.                

        No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of
the  Indenture  shall alter or impair the  obligation  of the  Issuer,  which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at
the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.       

        Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  except as expressly
provided  in the  Basic  Documents,  none of  Wilmington  Trust  Company  in its
individual  capacity,  Wells  Fargo  Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  in its  individual
capacity,  any owner of a  beneficial  interest in the  Issuer,  or any of their
respective partners,  beneficiaries,  agents, officers, directors,  employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally  liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for,  the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or the
performance of, or the failure to perform, any of the covenants,  obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The Noteholder of this Note, by its
acceptance  hereof,  agrees  that,  except as  expressly  provided  in the Basic
Documents,  in the  case of an  Event  of  Default  under  the  Indenture,  such
Noteholder  shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency,
loss or claim therefrom;  provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
be taken to prevent  recourse  to, and  enforcement  against,  the assets of the
Issuer for any and all liabilities,  obligations and  undertakings  contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.

indentures  supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective  rights and  obligations  thereunder  of the  Issuer,  the  Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders of the Series  2000-HE3  Notes.  The Series 2000-HE3
Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.

Date,  commencing on November 27, 2000, as described in the Indenture.  "Payment
Date" means the  twenty-fifth  day of each month,  or, if any such date is not a
Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day.                            

        The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable
in full on the Payment Date in December 2031 pursuant to the  Indenture,  to the
extent  not  previously  paid  on a  prior  Payment  Date.  Notwithstanding  the
foregoing,  if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be  continuing,  then
the Indenture  Trustee or the Noteholders of Notes  representing not less than a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes, may declare the Notes to be
immediately  due and  payable in the  manner  provided  in  Section  5.02 of the
Indenture.  All  principal  payments  on the Notes shall be made pro rata to the

        Any  installment of interest or principal,  if any,  payable on any Note
that is  punctually  paid or duly  provided for by the Issuer on the  applicable
Payment Date shall be paid to the related  Noteholder  on the  preceding  Record
Date,  by wire  transfer to an account  specified in writing by such  Noteholder
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date

it appears in the Note Register,  the amount  required to be distributed to such
Noteholder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Noteholder's  Notes;  provided,
however,  that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such Noteholder any amount
required  to be  withheld  from a payment to such  Noteholder  by the Code.  Any
reduction in the principal  amount of this Note (or any one or more  predecessor
Notes)  effected by any payments  made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for
payment in full of the then remaining  unpaid principal amount of this Note on a
Payment Date,  then the Indenture  Trustee,  in the name of and on behalf of the
Issuer,  will notify the Person who was the registered  Noteholder  hereof as of
the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by
facsimile  prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall
be payable  only upon  presentation  and  surrender  of this Note at the address
specified in such notice of final payment.

Office of the Indenture  Trustee,  duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument  of transfer  in form  satisfactory  to the  Indenture  Trustee  duly
executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder's attorney duly authorized
in  writing,   with  such  signature   guaranteed  by  an  "eligible   guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar,  which requirements
include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent's Medallion

determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution  for, STAMP,
all in accordance  with the Exchange Act, and thereupon one or more new Notes in
authorized  denominations  and in the same  aggregate  principal  amount will be
issued to the designated  transferee or  transferees.  No service charge will be
charged for any  registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the Note
Registrar  shall  require  payment  of a sum  sufficient  to  cover  any  tax or
governmental  charge that may be imposed in connection with any  registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note.                                              

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a

GMAC  Mortgage  Group,  Inc. or the Issuer of, any  bankruptcy,  reorganization,
arrangement,  insolvency  or  liquidation  proceedings  under any United  States
federal or state  bankruptcy or similar law in connection  with any  obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the other Basic Documents.              

        The Issuer has entered into the  Indenture  and this Note is issued with
the intention  that, for federal,  state and local income,  single  business and
franchise tax purposes,  the Notes will qualify as  indebtedness  of the Issuer.
Each  Noteholder  of a Note, by its  acceptance  of a Note (and each  Beneficial
Owner of a Note by its acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), agrees to
treat the Notes  for  federal,  state and  local  income,  single  business  and
franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.                           

        Prior to the due presentment for  registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in the name of which this Note is registered (as of
the day of  determination  or as of such other date as may be  specified  in the
Indenture)  as the owner  hereof for all  purposes,  whether or not this Note be
overdue,  and none of the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.                                          

        The Indenture permits,  with certain  exceptions  therein provided,  the
amendment  thereof and the  modification  of the rights and  obligations  of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the Noteholders of the Series
2000-HE3  Notes under the  Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee with the consent of the Noteholders of Notes  representing a majority of
the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes then  Outstanding  and with prior notice
to the Rating Agencies.  The Indenture also contains  provisions  permitting the
Noteholders of Notes representing  specified percentages of the Note Balances of
the Series  2000-HE3  Notes, on behalf of the Noteholders of all Series 2000-HE3
Notes,  to  waive  compliance  by the  Issuer  with  certain  provisions  of the
Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their  consequences.
Any such  consent or waiver by the  Noteholder  of this Note (or any one of more
predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of  transfer  hereof or in  exchange  hereof or in lieu  hereof  whether  or not
notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.  The  Indenture  also
permits the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture  without the consent of Noteholders of the
Series  2000-HE3  Notes  issued  thereunder  but with prior notice to the Rating
Agencies.

        The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture,  under certain  circumstances,
to merge or consolidate,  subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the

        The Notes are  issuable  only in  registered  form in  denominations  as
provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.    

        This Note and the Indenture  shall be construed in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State  of New  York,  without  reference  to its  conflicts  of law
provisions,  and the obligations,  rights and remedies of the parties  hereunder
and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.                

        No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of
the  Indenture  shall alter or impair the  obligation  of the  Issuer,  which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at
the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.       

        Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  except as expressly
provided  in the  Basic  Documents,  none of  Wilmington  Trust  Company  in its
individual  capacity,  Wells  Fargo  Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  in its  individual
capacity,  any owner of a  beneficial  interest in the  Issuer,  or any of their
respective partners,  beneficiaries,  agents, officers, directors,  employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally  liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for,  the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or the
performance of, or the failure to perform, any of the covenants,  obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The Noteholder of this Note, by its
acceptance  hereof,  agrees  that,  except as  expressly  provided  in the Basic
Documents,  in the  case of an  Event  of  Default  under  the  Indenture,  such
Noteholder  shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency,
loss or claim therefrom;  provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
be taken to prevent  recourse  to, and  enforcement  against,  the assets of the
Issuer for any and all liabilities,  obligations and  undertakings  contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.

Trustee");  provided,  however,  that the entire unpaid principal amount of this
Note shall be due and  payable on the  Payment  Date in  December  2031,  to the
extent not  previously  paid on a prior  Payment  Date.  Capitalized  terms used
herein that are not otherwise  defined shall have the meanings  ascribed thereto
in Appendix A to the Indenture.                                                 

        Interest on the Notes will be paid  monthly on each  Payment Date at the
Note Rate for the related Interest  Accrual Period.  The Note Rate for this Note
will be a fixed rate equal to 7.80% per annum.  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,
the Note Rate on this Note will  increase by 0.50% to 8.30% per annum  beginning
with the first Interest  Accrual Period for the Class A-8 Notes commencing after
the first Payment Date on which the Principal  Balance of the Mortgage  Loans is
less than 10% of the initial Pool Balance. Interest on this Note will accrue for
each Payment Date from the most recent  Payment Date on which  interest has been
paid (in the case of the  first  Payment  Date,  from the  Closing  Date) to but
excluding  such  Payment  Date.  Interest  will be  computed on the basis of the
actual  number of days in each  Interest  Accrual  Period and a year  assumed to
consist of 360 days. Principal of and interest on this Note shall be paid in the
manner specified on the reverse hereof.                                         

        Principal  of and  interest  on this  Note are  payable  in such coin or
currency  of the  United  States of  America  as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts.  All payments made by the Issuer
with respect to this Note shall be applied  first to interest due and payable on
this Note as provided above and then to the unpaid principal of this Note.      

        Reference  is made to the further  provisions  of this Note set forth on
the reverse  hereof,  which shall have the same effect as though fully set forth
on the face of this Note.                                                       

        Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Indenture Trustee whose name appears below by manual signature,  this Note shall
not be entitled to any benefit  under the  Indenture  referred to on the reverse
hereof, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.                              

        This  Note is one of a duly  authorized  issue of  Notes of the  Issuer,
designated as its GMACM Mortgage Loan-Backed Notes, Series 2000-HE3 (the "Series
2000-HE3  Notes"),  all issued under the Indenture,  to which  Indenture and all
indentures  supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective  rights and  obligations  thereunder  of the  Issuer,  the  Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders of the Series  2000-HE3  Notes.  The Series 2000-HE3
Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.                                

        The Series 2000-HE3 Notes are and will be equally and ratably secured by
the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture.       

        Principal  of and  interest on this Note will be payable on each Payment
Date,  commencing on November 27, 2000, as described in the Indenture.  "Payment
Date" means the  twenty-fifth  day of each month,  or, if any such date is not a
Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day.                            

        The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable
in full on the Payment Date in December 2031 pursuant to the  Indenture,  to the
extent  not  previously  paid  on a  prior  Payment  Date.  Notwithstanding  the
foregoing,  if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be  continuing,  then

the Indenture  Trustee or the Noteholders of Notes  representing not less than a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes, may declare the Notes to be
immediately  due and  payable in the  manner  provided  in  Section  5.02 of the
Indenture.  All  principal  payments  on the Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders of Notes entitled thereto.                                          

        Any  installment of interest or principal,  if any,  payable on any Note
that is  punctually  paid or duly  provided for by the Issuer on the  applicable
Payment Date shall be paid to the related  Noteholder  on the  preceding  Record
Date,  by wire  transfer to an account  specified in writing by such  Noteholder
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date
or, if no such  instructions  have been delivered to the Indenture  Trustee,  by
check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to such  Noteholder's  address as
it appears in the Note Register,  the amount  required to be distributed to such
Noteholder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Noteholder's  Notes;  provided,
however,  that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such Noteholder any amount
required  to be  withheld  from a payment to such  Noteholder  by the Code.  Any
reduction in the principal  amount of this Note (or any one or more  predecessor
Notes)  effected by any payments  made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for
payment in full of the then remaining  unpaid principal amount of this Note on a
Payment Date,  then the Indenture  Trustee,  in the name of and on behalf of the
Issuer,  will notify the Person who was the registered  Noteholder  hereof as of
the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by
facsimile  prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall
be payable  only upon  presentation  and  surrender  of this Note at the address
specified in such notice of final payment.                                      

        As provided in the  Indenture  and  subject to certain  limitations  set
forth therein,  the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for  registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Indenture  Trustee,  duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument  of transfer  in form  satisfactory  to the  Indenture  Trustee  duly
executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder's attorney duly authorized
in  writing,   with  such  signature   guaranteed  by  an  "eligible   guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar,  which requirements
include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent's Medallion
Program  ("STAMP")  or  such  other  "signature  guarantee  program"  as  may be
determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution  for, STAMP,
all in accordance  with the Exchange Act, and thereupon one or more new Notes in
authorized  denominations  and in the same  aggregate  principal  amount will be
issued to the designated  transferee or  transferees.  No service charge will be
charged for any  registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the Note
Registrar  shall  require  payment  of a sum  sufficient  to  cover  any  tax or
governmental  charge that may be imposed in connection with any  registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note.                                              

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial  interest in
a Note,  covenants  and  agrees  that no  recourse  may be  taken,  directly  or
indirectly,  with respect to the  obligations of the Issuer,  the Owner Trustee,

the Sellers,  the Servicer,  the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes
or under  the  Indenture  or any  certificate  or  other  writing  delivered  in

expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be
fully  liable,  to  the  extent  provided  by  applicable  law  for  any  unpaid
consideration  for  stock,  unpaid  capital  contribution  or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity.                                       

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note,  covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
Noteholder  or  Beneficial  Owner  will not at any time  institute  against  the
Depositor,  the Sellers, the Servicer,  GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or the Issuer,
or join in any  institution  against the Depositor,  the Sellers,  the Servicer,

arrangement,  insolvency  or  liquidation  proceedings  under any United  States
federal or state  bankruptcy or similar law in connection  with any  obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the other Basic Documents.              

        The Issuer has entered into the  Indenture  and this Note is issued with
the intention  that, for federal,  state and local income,  single  business and
franchise tax purposes,  the Notes will qualify as  indebtedness  of the Issuer.
Each  Noteholder  of a Note, by its  acceptance  of a Note (and each  Beneficial
Owner of a Note by its acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), agrees to
treat the Notes  for  federal,  state and  local  income,  single  business  and
franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.                           

        Prior to the due presentment for  registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in the name of which this Note is registered (as of
the day of  determination  or as of such other date as may be  specified  in the
Indenture)  as the owner  hereof for all  purposes,  whether or not this Note be
overdue,  and none of the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.                                          

        The Indenture permits,  with certain  exceptions  therein provided,  the
amendment  thereof and the  modification  of the rights and  obligations  of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the Noteholders of the Series
2000-HE3  Notes under the  Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee with the consent of the Noteholders of Notes  representing a majority of
the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes then  Outstanding  and with prior notice
to the Rating Agencies.  The Indenture also contains  provisions  permitting the
Noteholders of Notes representing  specified percentages of the Note Balances of
the Series  2000-HE3  Notes, on behalf of the Noteholders of all Series 2000-HE3
Notes,  to  waive  compliance  by the  Issuer  with  certain  provisions  of the
Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their  consequences.
Any such  consent or waiver by the  Noteholder  of this Note (or any one of more
predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration

        The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture,  under certain  circumstances,

        This Note and the Indenture  shall be construed in  accordance  with the

and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.                

        No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of
the  Indenture  shall alter or impair the  obligation  of the  Issuer,  which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at
the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.       

        Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  except as expressly
provided  in the  Basic  Documents,  none of  Wilmington  Trust  Company  in its
individual  capacity,  Wells  Fargo  Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  in its  individual
capacity,  any owner of a  beneficial  interest in the  Issuer,  or any of their
respective partners,  beneficiaries,  agents, officers, directors,  employees or

to any of them for,  the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or the
performance of, or the failure to perform, any of the covenants,  obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The Noteholder of this Note, by its
acceptance  hereof,  agrees  that,  except as  expressly  provided  in the Basic
Documents,  in the  case of an  Event  of  Default  under  the  Indenture,  such
Noteholder  shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency,
loss or claim therefrom;  provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
be taken to prevent  recourse  to, and  enforcement  against,  the assets of the
Issuer for any and all liabilities,  obligations and  undertakings  contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.

        GMACM Mortgage Loan Trust 2000-HE3,  a business trust duly organized and
existing  under the laws of the State of  Delaware  (herein  referred  to as the
"Issuer"),  for  value  received,  hereby  promises  to pay to Cede & Co. or its
registered assigns,  the principal sum of thirty million three hundred fifty one
thousand dollars ($30,351,000),  payable on each Payment Date in an amount equal

principal of the Class M-1 Notes (the  "Notes")  pursuant to Section 3.05 of the

Trustee");  provided,  however,  that the entire unpaid principal amount of this
Note shall be due and  payable on the  Payment  Date in  December  2031,  to the
extent not  previously  paid on a prior  Payment  Date.  Capitalized  terms used
herein that are not otherwise  defined shall have the meanings  ascribed thereto
in Appendix A to the Indenture.                                                 

        Interest on the Notes will be paid  monthly on each  Payment Date at the
Note Rate for the related Interest  Accrual Period.  The Note Rate for this Note
will be a fixed rate equal to 8.29% per annum.  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,
the Note Rate on this Note will  increase by 1.00% to 9.29% per annum  beginning
with the first Interest  Accrual Period for the Class M-1 Notes commencing after
the first Payment Date on which the Principal  Balance of the Mortgage  Loans is
less than 10% of the initial Pool Balance. Interest on this Note will accrue for
each Payment Date from the most recent  Payment Date on which  interest has been
paid (in the case of the  first  Payment  Date,  from the  Closing  Date) to but
excluding  such  Payment  Date.  Interest  will be  computed on the basis of the
actual  number of days in each  Interest  Accrual  Period and a year  assumed to
consist of 360 days. Principal of and interest on this Note shall be paid in the
manner specified on the reverse hereof.                                         

        Principal  of and  interest  on this  Note are  payable  in such coin or
currency  of the  United  States of  America  as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts.  All payments made by the Issuer
with respect to this Note shall be applied  first to interest due and payable on
this Note as provided above and then to the unpaid principal of this Note.      

        Reference  is made to the further  provisions  of this Note set forth on
the reverse  hereof,  which shall have the same effect as though fully set forth
on the face of this Note.                                                       

        Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Indenture Trustee whose name appears below by manual signature,  this Note shall
not be entitled to any benefit  under the  Indenture  referred to on the reverse
hereof, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.                              

        This  Note is one of a duly  authorized  issue of  Notes of the  Issuer,
designated as its GMACM Mortgage Loan-Backed Notes, Series 2000-HE3 (the "Series
2000-HE3  Notes"),  all issued under the Indenture,  to which  Indenture and all
indentures  supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective  rights and  obligations  thereunder  of the  Issuer,  the  Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders of the Series  2000-HE3  Notes.  The Series 2000-HE3
Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.                                

        The Series 2000-HE3 Notes are and will be equally and ratably secured by
the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture.       

        Principal  of and  interest on this Note will be payable on each Payment
Date,  commencing on November 27, 2000, as described in the Indenture.  "Payment
Date" means the  twenty-fifth  day of each month,  or, if any such date is not a
Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day.                            

        The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable
in full on the Payment Date in December 2031 pursuant to the  Indenture,  to the
extent  not  previously  paid  on a  prior  Payment  Date.  Notwithstanding  the

foregoing,  if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be  continuing,  then
the Indenture  Trustee or the Noteholders of Notes  representing not less than a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes, may declare the Notes to be
immediately  due and  payable in the  manner  provided  in  Section  5.02 of the
Indenture.  All  principal  payments  on the Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders of Notes entitled thereto.                                          

        Any  installment of interest or principal,  if any,  payable on any Note
that is  punctually  paid or duly  provided for by the Issuer on the  applicable
Payment Date shall be paid to the related  Noteholder  on the  preceding  Record
Date,  by wire  transfer to an account  specified in writing by such  Noteholder
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date
or, if no such  instructions  have been delivered to the Indenture  Trustee,  by
check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to such  Noteholder's  address as
it appears in the Note Register,  the amount  required to be distributed to such
Noteholder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Noteholder's  Notes;  provided,
however,  that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such Noteholder any amount
required  to be  withheld  from a payment to such  Noteholder  by the Code.  Any
reduction in the principal  amount of this Note (or any one or more  predecessor
Notes)  effected by any payments  made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for
payment in full of the then remaining  unpaid principal amount of this Note on a
Payment Date,  then the Indenture  Trustee,  in the name of and on behalf of the
Issuer,  will notify the Person who was the registered  Noteholder  hereof as of
the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by
facsimile  prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall
be payable  only upon  presentation  and  surrender  of this Note at the address
specified in such notice of final payment.                                      

        As provided in the  Indenture  and  subject to certain  limitations  set
forth therein,  the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for  registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Indenture  Trustee,  duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument  of transfer  in form  satisfactory  to the  Indenture  Trustee  duly
executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder's attorney duly authorized
in  writing,   with  such  signature   guaranteed  by  an  "eligible   guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar,  which requirements
include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent's Medallion
Program  ("STAMP")  or  such  other  "signature  guarantee  program"  as  may be
determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution  for, STAMP,
all in accordance  with the Exchange Act, and thereupon one or more new Notes in
authorized  denominations  and in the same  aggregate  principal  amount will be
issued to the designated  transferee or  transferees.  No service charge will be
charged for any  registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the Note
Registrar  shall  require  payment  of a sum  sufficient  to  cover  any  tax or
governmental  charge that may be imposed in connection with any  registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note.                                              

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial  interest in
a Note,  covenants  and  agrees  that no  recourse  may be  taken,  directly  or
indirectly,  with respect to the  obligations of the Issuer,  the Owner Trustee,
the Sellers,  the Servicer,  the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes
or under  the  Indenture  or any  certificate  or  other  writing  delivered  in

connection therewith,  against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in
its individual  capacity,  (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer
or (iii) any partner, owner,  beneficiary,  agent, officer, director or employee
of the Indenture  Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual  capacity,  any
holder  of a  beneficial  interest  in the  Issuer,  the  Owner  Trustee  or the
Indenture  Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the
Owner  Trustee in its  individual  capacity,  except as any such Person may have
expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be
fully  liable,  to  the  extent  provided  by  applicable  law  for  any  unpaid
consideration  for  stock,  unpaid  capital  contribution  or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity.                                       

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note,  covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
Noteholder  or  Beneficial  Owner  will not at any time  institute  against  the
Depositor,  the Sellers, the Servicer,  GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or the Issuer,
or join in any  institution  against the Depositor,  the Sellers,  the Servicer,
GMAC  Mortgage  Group,  Inc. or the Issuer of, any  bankruptcy,  reorganization,
arrangement,  insolvency  or  liquidation  proceedings  under any United  States
federal or state  bankruptcy or similar law in connection  with any  obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the other Basic Documents.              

        The Issuer has entered into the  Indenture  and this Note is issued with
the intention  that, for federal,  state and local income,  single  business and
franchise tax purposes,  the Notes will qualify as  indebtedness  of the Issuer.
Each  Noteholder  of a Note, by its  acceptance  of a Note (and each  Beneficial
Owner of a Note by its acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), agrees to
treat the Notes  for  federal,  state and  local  income,  single  business  and
franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.                           

        Prior to the due presentment for  registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in the name of which this Note is registered (as of
the day of  determination  or as of such other date as may be  specified  in the
Indenture)  as the owner  hereof for all  purposes,  whether or not this Note be
overdue,  and none of the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.                                          

        The Indenture permits,  with certain  exceptions  therein provided,  the
amendment  thereof and the  modification  of the rights and  obligations  of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the Noteholders of the Series
2000-HE3  Notes under the  Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee with the consent of the Noteholders of Notes  representing a majority of
the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes then  Outstanding  and with prior notice
to the Rating Agencies.  The Indenture also contains  provisions  permitting the
Noteholders of Notes representing  specified percentages of the Note Balances of
the Series  2000-HE3  Notes, on behalf of the Noteholders of all Series 2000-HE3
Notes,  to  waive  compliance  by the  Issuer  with  certain  provisions  of the
Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their  consequences.
Any such  consent or waiver by the  Noteholder  of this Note (or any one of more
predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon

all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of  transfer  hereof or in  exchange  hereof or in lieu  hereof  whether  or not
notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.  The  Indenture  also
permits the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture  without the consent of Noteholders of the
Series  2000-HE3  Notes  issued  thereunder  but with prior notice to the Rating
Agencies.                                                                       
        The term  "Issuer" as used in this Note  includes  any  successor or the
Issuer under the Indenture.                                                     

        The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture,  under certain  circumstances,
to merge or consolidate,  subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the
Noteholders of Notes under the Indenture.                                       

        The Notes are  issuable  only in  registered  form in  denominations  as
provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.    

        This Note and the Indenture  shall be construed in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State  of New  York,  without  reference  to its  conflicts  of law
provisions,  and the obligations,  rights and remedies of the parties  hereunder
and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.                

        No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of
the  Indenture  shall alter or impair the  obligation  of the  Issuer,  which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at
the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.       

        Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  except as expressly
provided  in the  Basic  Documents,  none of  Wilmington  Trust  Company  in its
individual  capacity,  Wells  Fargo  Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  in its  individual
capacity,  any owner of a  beneficial  interest in the  Issuer,  or any of their
respective partners,  beneficiaries,  agents, officers, directors,  employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally  liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for,  the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or the
performance of, or the failure to perform, any of the covenants,  obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The Noteholder of this Note, by its
acceptance  hereof,  agrees  that,  except as  expressly  provided  in the Basic
Documents,  in the  case of an  Event  of  Default  under  the  Indenture,  such

and Wells Fargo Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  as indenture  trustee  (the  "Indenture
Trustee");  provided,  however,  that the entire unpaid principal amount of this
Note shall be due and  payable on the  Payment  Date in  December  2031,  to the
extent not  previously  paid on a prior  Payment  Date.  Capitalized  terms used
herein that are not otherwise  defined shall have the meanings  ascribed thereto
in Appendix A to the Indenture.                                                 

        Interest on the Notes will be paid  monthly on each  Payment Date at the
Note Rate for the related Interest  Accrual Period.  The Note Rate for this Note
will be a fixed rate equal to 8.83% per annum.  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,
the Note Rate on this Note will  increase by 1.00% to 9.83% per annum  beginning
with the first Interest  Accrual Period for the Class M-2 Notes commencing after
the first Payment Date on which the Principal  Balance of the Mortgage  Loans is
less than 10% of the initial Pool Balance. Interest on this Note will accrue for
each Payment Date from the most recent  Payment Date on which  interest has been
paid (in the case of the  first  Payment  Date,  from the  Closing  Date) to but
excluding  such  Payment  Date.  Interest  will be  computed on the basis of the
actual  number of days in each  Interest  Accrual  Period and a year  assumed to
consist of 360 days. Principal of and interest on this Note shall be paid in the
manner specified on the reverse hereof.                                         

        Principal  of and  interest  on this  Note are  payable  in such coin or
currency  of the  United  States of  America  as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts.  All payments made by the Issuer
with respect to this Note shall be applied  first to interest due and payable on
this Note as provided above and then to the unpaid principal of this Note.      

        Reference  is made to the further  provisions  of this Note set forth on
the reverse  hereof,  which shall have the same effect as though fully set forth
on the face of this Note.                                                       

        Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Indenture Trustee whose name appears below by manual signature,  this Note shall
not be entitled to any benefit  under the  Indenture  referred to on the reverse
hereof, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.                              

        This  Note is one of a duly  authorized  issue of  Notes of the  Issuer,
designated as its GMACM Mortgage Loan-Backed Notes, Series 2000-HE3 (the "Series
2000-HE3  Notes"),  all issued under the Indenture,  to which  Indenture and all
indentures  supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective  rights and  obligations  thereunder  of the  Issuer,  the  Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders of the Series  2000-HE3  Notes.  The Series 2000-HE3
Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.                                

        The Series 2000-HE3 Notes are and will be equally and ratably secured by
the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture.       

        Principal  of and  interest on this Note will be payable on each Payment
Date,  commencing on November 27, 2000, as described in the Indenture.  "Payment
Date" means the  twenty-fifth  day of each month,  or, if any such date is not a
Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day.                            

        The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable
in full on the Payment Date in December 2031 pursuant to the  Indenture,  to the
extent  not  previously  paid  on a  prior  Payment  Date.  Notwithstanding  the

foregoing,  if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be  continuing,  then
the Indenture  Trustee or the Noteholders of Notes  representing not less than a
majority of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes, may declare the Notes to be
immediately  due and  payable in the  manner  provided  in  Section  5.02 of the
Indenture.  All  principal  payments  on the Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders of Notes entitled thereto.                                          

        Any  installment of interest or principal,  if any,  payable on any Note
that is  punctually  paid or duly  provided for by the Issuer on the  applicable
Payment Date shall be paid to the related  Noteholder  on the  preceding  Record
Date,  by wire  transfer to an account  specified in writing by such  Noteholder
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date
or, if no such  instructions  have been delivered to the Indenture  Trustee,  by
check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to such  Noteholder's  address as
it appears in the Note Register,  the amount  required to be distributed to such
Noteholder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Noteholder's  Notes;  provided,
however,  that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such Noteholder any amount
required  to be  withheld  from a payment to such  Noteholder  by the Code.  Any
reduction in the principal  amount of this Note (or any one or more  predecessor
Notes)  effected by any payments  made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for
payment in full of the then remaining  unpaid principal amount of this Note on a
Payment Date,  then the Indenture  Trustee,  in the name of and on behalf of the
Issuer,  will notify the Person who was the registered  Noteholder  hereof as of
the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by
facsimile  prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall
be payable  only upon  presentation  and  surrender  of this Note at the address
specified in such notice of final payment.                                      

        As provided in the  Indenture  and  subject to certain  limitations  set
forth therein,  the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for  registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Indenture  Trustee,  duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument  of transfer  in form  satisfactory  to the  Indenture  Trustee  duly
executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder's attorney duly authorized
in  writing,   with  such  signature   guaranteed  by  an  "eligible   guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar,  which requirements
include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent's Medallion
Program  ("STAMP")  or  such  other  "signature  guarantee  program"  as  may be
determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution  for, STAMP,
all in accordance  with the Exchange Act, and thereupon one or more new Notes in
authorized  denominations  and in the same  aggregate  principal  amount will be
issued to the designated  transferee or  transferees.  No service charge will be
charged for any  registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the Note
Registrar  shall  require  payment  of a sum  sufficient  to  cover  any  tax or
governmental  charge that may be imposed in connection with any  registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note.                                              

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial  interest in
a Note,  covenants  and  agrees  that no  recourse  may be  taken,  directly  or
indirectly,  with respect to the  obligations of the Issuer,  the Owner Trustee,
the Sellers,  the Servicer,  the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes
or under  the  Indenture  or any  certificate  or  other  writing  delivered  in

connection therewith,  against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in
its individual  capacity,  (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer
or (iii) any partner, owner,  beneficiary,  agent, officer, director or employee
of the Indenture  Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual  capacity,  any
holder  of a  beneficial  interest  in the  Issuer,  the  Owner  Trustee  or the
Indenture  Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the
Owner  Trustee in its  individual  capacity,  except as any such Person may have
expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be
fully  liable,  to  the  extent  provided  by  applicable  law  for  any  unpaid
consideration  for  stock,  unpaid  capital  contribution  or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity.                                       

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note,  covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
Noteholder  or  Beneficial  Owner  will not at any time  institute  against  the
Depositor,  the Sellers, the Servicer,  GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or the Issuer,
or join in any  institution  against the Depositor,  the Sellers,  the Servicer,
GMAC  Mortgage  Group,  Inc. or the Issuer of, any  bankruptcy,  reorganization,
arrangement,  insolvency  or  liquidation  proceedings  under any United  States
federal or state  bankruptcy or similar law in connection  with any  obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the other Basic Documents.              

        The Issuer has entered into the  Indenture  and this Note is issued with
the intention  that, for federal,  state and local income,  single  business and
franchise tax purposes,  the Notes will qualify as  indebtedness  of the Issuer.
Each  Noteholder  of a Note, by its  acceptance  of a Note (and each  Beneficial
Owner of a Note by its acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), agrees to
treat the Notes  for  federal,  state and  local  income,  single  business  and
franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.                           

        Prior to the due presentment for  registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in the name of which this Note is registered (as of
the day of  determination  or as of such other date as may be  specified  in the
Indenture)  as the owner  hereof for all  purposes,  whether or not this Note be
overdue,  and none of the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.                                          

        The Indenture permits,  with certain  exceptions  therein provided,  the
amendment  thereof and the  modification  of the rights and  obligations  of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the Noteholders of the Series
2000-HE3  Notes under the  Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee with the consent of the Noteholders of Notes  representing a majority of
the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes then  Outstanding  and with prior notice
to the Rating Agencies.  The Indenture also contains  provisions  permitting the
Noteholders of Notes representing  specified percentages of the Note Balances of
the Series  2000-HE3  Notes, on behalf of the Noteholders of all Series 2000-HE3
Notes,  to  waive  compliance  by the  Issuer  with  certain  provisions  of the
Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their  consequences.
Any such  consent or waiver by the  Noteholder  of this Note (or any one of more

all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of  transfer  hereof or in  exchange  hereof or in lieu  hereof  whether  or not
notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.  The  Indenture  also
permits the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture  without the consent of Noteholders of the
Series  2000-HE3  Notes  issued  thereunder  but with prior notice to the Rating
Agencies.                                                                       

        The term  "Issuer" as used in this Note  includes  any  successor or the
Issuer under the Indenture.                                                     

        The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture,  under certain  circumstances,
to merge or consolidate,  subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the
Noteholders of Notes under the Indenture.                                       

        The Notes are  issuable  only in  registered  form in  denominations  as
provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.    

        This Note and the Indenture  shall be construed in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State  of New  York,  without  reference  to its  conflicts  of law
provisions,  and the obligations,  rights and remedies of the parties  hereunder
and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.                

        No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of
the  Indenture  shall alter or impair the  obligation  of the  Issuer,  which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at
the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.       

        Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  except as expressly
provided  in the  Basic  Documents,  none of  Wilmington  Trust  Company  in its
individual  capacity,  Wells  Fargo  Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  in its  individual
capacity,  any owner of a  beneficial  interest in the  Issuer,  or any of their
respective partners,  beneficiaries,  agents, officers, directors,  employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally  liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for,  the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or the
performance of, or the failure to perform, any of the covenants,  obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The Noteholder of this Note, by its
acceptance  hereof,  agrees  that,  except as  expressly  provided  in the Basic
Documents,  in the  case of an  Event  of  Default  under  the  Indenture,  such
Noteholder  shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency,
loss or claim therefrom;  provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
be taken to prevent  recourse  to, and  enforcement  against,  the assets of the
Issuer for any and all liabilities,  obligations and  undertakings  contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.

Note shall be due and  payable on the  Payment  Date in  December  2031,  to the
extent not  previously  paid on a prior  Payment  Date.  Capitalized  terms used
herein that are not otherwise  defined shall have the meanings  ascribed thereto
in Appendix A to the Indenture.                                                 

        Interest on the Notes will be paid  monthly on each  Payment Date at the
Note Rate for the related Interest  Accrual Period.  The Note Rate for this Note
will be a fixed rate equal to 9.00% per annum.  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,
the Note Rate on this Note will increase by 1.00% to 10.00% per annum  beginning
with the first Interest  Accrual Period for the Class B Notes  commencing  after
the first Payment Date on which the Principal  Balance of the Mortgage  Loans is
less than 10% of the initial Pool Balance. Interest on this Note will accrue for
each Payment Date from the most recent  Payment Date on which  interest has been
paid (in the case of the  first  Payment  Date,  from the  Closing  Date) to but
excluding  such  Payment  Date.  Interest  will be  computed on the basis of the
actual  number of days in each  Interest  Accrual  Period and a year  assumed to
consist of 360 days. Principal of and interest on this Note shall be paid in the
manner specified on the reverse hereof.                                         

        Principal  of and  interest  on this  Note are  payable  in such coin or
currency  of the  United  States of  America  as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts.  All payments made by the Issuer
with respect to this Note shall be applied  first to interest due and payable on
this Note as provided above and then to the unpaid principal of this Note.      

        Reference  is made to the further  provisions  of this Note set forth on
the reverse  hereof,  which shall have the same effect as though fully set forth
on the face of this Note.                                                       

        Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Indenture Trustee whose name appears below by manual signature,  this Note shall
not be entitled to any benefit  under the  Indenture  referred to on the reverse
hereof, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.                              

        This  Note is one of a duly  authorized  issue of  Notes of the  Issuer,
designated as its GMACM Mortgage Loan-Backed Notes, Series 2000-HE3 (the "Series
2000-HE3  Notes"),  all issued under the Indenture,  to which  Indenture and all
indentures  supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective  rights and  obligations  thereunder  of the  Issuer,  the  Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders of the Series  2000-HE3  Notes.  The Series 2000-HE3
Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.                                

        The Series 2000-HE3 Notes are and will be equally and ratably secured by
the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture.       

        Principal  of and  interest on this Note will be payable on each Payment
Date,  commencing on November 27, 2000, as described in the Indenture.  "Payment
Date" means the  twenty-fifth  day of each month,  or, if any such date is not a
Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day.                            

        The entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable
in full on the Payment Date in December 2031 pursuant to the  Indenture,  to the
extent  not  previously  paid  on a  prior  Payment  Date.  Notwithstanding  the
foregoing,  if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be  continuing,  then

majority of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes, may declare the Notes to be
immediately  due and  payable in the  manner  provided  in  Section  5.02 of the
Indenture.  All  principal  payments  on the Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders of Notes entitled thereto.                                          

        Any  installment of interest or principal,  if any,  payable on any Note
that is  punctually  paid or duly  provided for by the Issuer on the  applicable
Payment Date shall be paid to the related  Noteholder  on the  preceding  Record
Date,  by wire  transfer to an account  specified in writing by such  Noteholder
reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee as of the preceding Record Date
or, if no such  instructions  have been delivered to the Indenture  Trustee,  by
check or money order to such Noteholder mailed to such  Noteholder's  address as
it appears in the Note Register,  the amount  required to be distributed to such
Noteholder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Noteholder's  Notes;  provided,
however,  that the Indenture Trustee shall not pay to such Noteholder any amount
required  to be  withheld  from a payment to such  Noteholder  by the Code.  Any
reduction in the principal  amount of this Note (or any one or more  predecessor
Notes)  effected by any payments  made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon
all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for
payment in full of the then remaining  unpaid principal amount of this Note on a
Payment Date,  then the Indenture  Trustee,  in the name of and on behalf of the
Issuer,  will notify the Person who was the registered  Noteholder  hereof as of
the Record Date  preceding  such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by
facsimile  prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall
be payable  only upon  presentation  and  surrender  of this Note at the address
specified in such notice of final payment.                                      

        As provided in the  Indenture  and  subject to certain  limitations  set
forth therein,  the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for  registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Indenture  Trustee,  duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument  of transfer  in form  satisfactory  to the  Indenture  Trustee  duly
executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder's attorney duly authorized
in  writing,   with  such  signature   guaranteed  by  an  "eligible   guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar,  which requirements
include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent's Medallion
Program  ("STAMP")  or  such  other  "signature  guarantee  program"  as  may be
determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution  for, STAMP,
all in accordance  with the Exchange Act, and thereupon one or more new Notes in
authorized  denominations  and in the same  aggregate  principal  amount will be
issued to the designated  transferee or  transferees.  No service charge will be
charged for any  registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the Note
Registrar  shall  require  payment  of a sum  sufficient  to  cover  any  tax or
governmental  charge that may be imposed in connection with any  registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note.                                              

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note, or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial  interest in
a Note,  covenants  and  agrees  that no  recourse  may be  taken,  directly  or
indirectly,  with respect to the  obligations of the Issuer,  the Owner Trustee,
the Sellers,  the Servicer,  the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes
or under  the  Indenture  or any  certificate  or  other  writing  delivered  in

connection therewith,  against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in
its individual  capacity,  (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer
or (iii) any partner, owner,  beneficiary,  agent, officer, director or employee
of the Indenture  Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual  capacity,  any
holder  of a  beneficial  interest  in the  Issuer,  the  Owner  Trustee  or the
Indenture  Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the
Owner  Trustee in its  individual  capacity,  except as any such Person may have
expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be
fully  liable,  to  the  extent  provided  by  applicable  law  for  any  unpaid
consideration  for  stock,  unpaid  capital  contribution  or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity.                                       

        Each  Noteholder or Beneficial  Owner of a Note, by its  acceptance of a
Note or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner of a Note, a beneficial interest in a
Note,  covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such
Noteholder  or  Beneficial  Owner  will not at any time  institute  against  the
Depositor,  the Sellers, the Servicer,  GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or the Issuer,
or join in any  institution  against the Depositor,  the Sellers,  the Servicer,
GMAC  Mortgage  Group,  Inc. or the Issuer of, any  bankruptcy,  reorganization,
arrangement,  insolvency  or  liquidation  proceedings  under any United  States
federal or state  bankruptcy or similar law in connection  with any  obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the other Basic Documents.              

        The Issuer has entered into the  Indenture  and this Note is issued with
the intention  that, for federal,  state and local income,  single  business and
franchise tax purposes,  the Notes will qualify as  indebtedness  of the Issuer.
Each  Noteholder  of a Note, by its  acceptance  of a Note (and each  Beneficial
Owner of a Note by its acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), agrees to
treat the Notes  for  federal,  state and  local  income,  single  business  and
franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.                           

        Prior to the due presentment for  registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer,  the Indenture  Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in the name of which this Note is registered (as of
the day of  determination  or as of such other date as may be  specified  in the
Indenture)  as the owner  hereof for all  purposes,  whether or not this Note be
overdue,  and none of the Issuer,  the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.                                          

        The Indenture permits,  with certain  exceptions  therein provided,  the
amendment  thereof and the  modification  of the rights and  obligations  of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the rights of the Noteholders of the Series
2000-HE3  Notes under the  Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee with the consent of the Noteholders of Notes  representing a majority of
the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes then  Outstanding  and with prior notice
to the Rating Agencies.  The Indenture also contains  provisions  permitting the
Noteholders of Notes representing  specified percentages of the Note Balances of
the Series  2000-HE3  Notes, on behalf of the Noteholders of all Series 2000-HE3
Notes,  to  waive  compliance  by the  Issuer  with  certain  provisions  of the
Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their  consequences.
Any such  consent or waiver by the  Noteholder  of this Note (or any one of more
predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon

of  transfer  hereof or in  exchange  hereof or in lieu  hereof  whether  or not
notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.  The  Indenture  also
permits the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture  without the consent of Noteholders of the
Series  2000-HE3  Notes  issued  thereunder  but with prior notice to the Rating
Agencies.                                                                       

        The term  "Issuer" as used in this Note  includes  any  successor or the
Issuer under the Indenture.                                                     

        The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture,  under certain  circumstances,
to merge or consolidate,  subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the
Noteholders of Notes under the Indenture.                                       

        The Notes are  issuable  only in  registered  form in  denominations  as
provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.    

        This Note and the Indenture  shall be construed in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State  of New  York,  without  reference  to its  conflicts  of law
provisions,  and the obligations,  rights and remedies of the parties  hereunder
and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.                

        No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of
the  Indenture  shall alter or impair the  obligation  of the  Issuer,  which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at
the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.       

        Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  except as expressly
provided  in the  Basic  Documents,  none of  Wilmington  Trust  Company  in its
individual  capacity,  Wells  Fargo  Bank  Minnesota,  N.A.,  in its  individual
capacity,  any owner of a  beneficial  interest in the  Issuer,  or any of their
respective partners,  beneficiaries,  agents, officers, directors,  employees or
successors or assigns shall be personally  liable for, nor shall recourse be had
to any of them for,  the payment of principal of or interest on this Note or the
performance of, or the failure to perform, any of the covenants,  obligations or
indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The Noteholder of this Note, by its
acceptance  hereof,  agrees  that,  except as  expressly  provided  in the Basic
Documents,  in the  case of an  Event  of  Default  under  the  Indenture,  such
Noteholder  shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency,
loss or claim therefrom;  provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
be taken to prevent  recourse  to, and  enforcement  against,  the assets of the
Issuer for any and all liabilities,  obligations and  undertakings  contained in
the Indenture or in this Note.
