trustee (the "Trustee").

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Seller has conveyed the mortgage loans listed on Exhibit Two
hereto (the "Serviced Loans") to the Depositor, and the Depositor in turn has
conveyed the Serviced Loans to the Trustee, all pursuant to a pooling agreement,
dated as of December 1, 2006 (the "Pooling Agreement"), among the Seller, the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee;

WHEREAS, the Serviced Loans are currently being serviced by the Servicer
for the Seller pursuant to a Servicing Agreement, dated as of November 1, 2006
(the "Servicing Agreement"), between Barclays Bank PLC as Purchaser and the
Servicer as servicer, a copy of which is annexed hereto as Exhibit Three;

WHEREAS, the Seller desires that the Servicer continue to service the
Serviced Loans and the Servicer has agreed to do so, subject to the rights of
the Master Servicer to terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer
hereunder as set forth herein and to the other conditions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, Section 8.04 of the Servicing Agreement ("Assignment by
Purchaser") provides that, subject to certain conditions set forth therein, the
Purchaser may assign the Servicing Agreement with respect to some or all of the
Mortgage Loans, and without limiting the foregoing, the Servicer has agreed in
Section 12.12 of the Servicing Agreement ("Cooperation of Servicer with a

as may be reasonably necessary in form and substance reasonably acceptable to
the Servicer in connection with any Whole Loan Transfers or Securitization
Transactions contemplated by the Purchaser pursuant to the Servicing Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Seller and Servicer agree that (a) the transfer of the
Serviced Loans from the Seller to the Depositor and from the Depositor to the
Trustee pursuant to the Pooling Agreement constitutes a Securitization
Transaction and (b) this Agreement shall constitute a Reconstitution Agreement
(as defined in the Servicing Agreement) in connection with such Securitization
Transaction that shall govern the Serviced Loans for so long as such Serviced
Loans remain subject to the provisions of the Pooling Agreement;

on behalf of the Trustee and the Trust Fund, and shall have the right to

ARTICLE V

RECOGNITION OF THE MASTER SERVICER AND THE TRUST FUND

(a) From and after the date hereof, the Servicer, and any successor
servicer hereunder, shall be subject to the supervision of the Master Servicer,
which Master Servicer shall be obligated to enforce the Servicer's obligation to
service the Serviced Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
The Servicer shall recognize the Trust Fund as the owner of the Serviced Loans,
and the Servicer will service the Serviced Loans for the Trust Fund as if the
Trust Fund and the Servicer had entered into a separate servicing agreement for
the servicing of the Serviced Loans in the form of this Agreement. The Master
Servicer and the Trustee shall have the same rights (but not the obligations,
except to the extent expressly set forth in the Pooling Agreement) as the
Purchaser under the Servicing Agreement to enforce the obligations of the
Servicer, including, without limitation, in the case of the Trustee, the
enforcement of remedies with respect to representations and warranties made by
the Servicer in the Servicing Agreement, and shall, in the case of the Master
Servicer, be entitled to enforce all of the obligations of the Servicer
thereunder insofar as they relate to the Serviced Loans. The Servicer shall look
solely to the Trust Fund for performance of any obligations of the Purchaser
under the Servicing Agreement and the Trust Fund hereby assumes such
obligations. All references to the Purchaser under the Servicing Agreement
insofar as they relate to the Serviced Loans, shall be deemed to refer to the
Trust Fund. The Servicer shall not amend or agree to amend, modify, waive, or
otherwise alter any of the terms or provisions of the Servicing Agreement, which
amendment, modification, waiver or other alteration would in any way materially
affect the Serviced Loans or the Servicer's performance under the Servicing
Agreement with respect to the Serviced Loans or which would materially and
adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders in the Serviced Loans
without the prior written consent of the Trustee and the Master Servicer.

(b) The Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights and
obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement as provided in Section 11.01
("Events of Default") of the Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master Servicer be required to
assume any of the obligations of the Purchaser under the Servicing Agreement;
and in entering into this Agreement, in connection with the performance by the
Master Servicer of any duties it may have hereunder, and in the exercise by the
Master Servicer of its rights, the Depositor, Seller, Master Servicer and
Trustee agree that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to all of the rights,
protections and limitations of liability, immunities and indemnities afforded to
the Master Servicer under the Pooling Agreement. Without limitation of the
foregoing, any provision of the Servicing Agreement requiring the Seller or the
Trust Fund, as Purchaser under the Servicing Agreement, to reimburse the
Servicer for any costs or expenses shall be satisfied by the Servicer's
reimbursement of such costs or expenses from the Custodial Account.

(c) A copy of all assessments, attestations, reports and certifications
required to be delivered by the Servicer under this Agreement and the Servicing
Agreement shall be delivered to the Master Servicer by the date(s) specified
herein or therein, and where such documents are required to be addressed to any
party, such addressees shall include the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer
shall be entitled to rely on such documents.
