This is the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of November 29,
2005 (the "Pooling and Servicing
Agreement" or
"Agreement"), among
RESIDENTIAL
ASSET MORTGAGE PRODUCTS, INC., as the company (together with its permitted
successors and assigns, the "Company"),
GMAC MORTGAGE
CORPORATION, as
servicer
(together with its permitted successors and assigns, the "Servicer"), and
DEUTSCHE BANK NATIONAL TRUST COMPANY, a
banking association
organized under the
laws of the United States, as Trustee (together with its permitted
successors
and assigns, the "Trustee").
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:
The Company intends to sell mortgage-backed pass-through certificates
(collectively, the "Certificates"), to be issued hereunder in eleven
Classes,
which in the aggregate will evidence the
entire beneficial ownership interest in
the Mortgage Loans (as defined herein) and
certain other related assets.
REMIC
As provided herein,
the REMIC Administrator will make an election to
treat the segregated pool of assets
consisting of the Mortgage Loans and certain
other related assets subject to this Agreement as a real estate mortgage
investment conduit (a "REMIC") for federal income tax purposes. The Class R
Certificates will represent the sole Class
of "residual
interests" in the REMIC
for purposes of the REMIC Provisions under
federal income tax law. The following
table irrevocably sets forth the designation, Pass-Through Rate, aggregate
Initial Certificate Principal Balance, certain features and Month of Final
Scheduled Distribution Date for each Class of Certificates comprising the
interests representing "regular interests" in the REMIC and of the Class R
Certificates. The "latest possible maturity date" (determined solely for
purposes of satisfying Treasury Regulation
Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii)) for each
Class of REMIC Regular Certificates shall
be the Maturity Date.

---------------
(1) With respect to the Class IO
Certificates and any Distribution Date, a rate
equal to the
weighted average of the Pool Strip Rate of
each Non-Discount
Mortgage Loan weighted on the basis of the respective Stated Principal
Balances of such
Mortgage Loans as of
the day immediately
preceding such
Distribution Date (or,
with respect to the initial Distribution Date, at the
close of business on
the Cut-off Date). The initial pass through rate on the
Class IO Certificates
is approximately 0.53642% per annum.
(2) The Class R Certificates shall be entitled to receive the applicable
Residual Distribution
Amount. The Class R Certificates shall not be entitled
to receive any
distributions of interest or principal.
In consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the
Company,
the Servicer and the Trustee agree as
follows:
<PAGE>
ARTICLE I
DEFINITIONS
Section 1.01. Definitions.
-----------
Whenever used in this Agreement, the following words and phrases,
unless
the context otherwise requires, shall have the meanings specified in this
Article.
Accrued Certificate Interest: With respect to each Distribution
Date and
any Class of Certificates, other than Principal Only Certificates, interest
accrued during the related Interest
Accrual Period at the
related
Pass-Through
Rate on the Certificate Principal Balance or Notional Amount, as applicable,
thereof immediately prior to such Distribution Date. Accrued Certificate
Interest on each Class of Certificates will be calculated on the basis of a
360-day year, consisting of twelve 30-day
months.
With respect to each Distribution Date, Accrued Certificate
Interest on
any Class of Certificates will be reduced
by the amount of:
(i)
Prepayment Interest
Shortfalls
on the Mortgage
Loans prepaid
during the prior
calendar month and, in
the case of a Principal
Prepayment in Full, during the related Prepayment Period (to the
extent not offset by the Servicer with a payment of Compensating
Interest),
(ii)
the interest portion
(adjusted to the Net
Mortgage Rate (or the
Modified Net
Mortgage Rate in the case of a Modified
Mortgage
Loan)) of Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans (including
Excess
Special Hazard Losses,
Excess Fraud Losses,
Excess Bankruptcy
Losses and
Extraordinary Losses)
not allocated solely to one or
more specific Classes of Certificates pursuant to Section 4.05,
(iii) the
interest portion of
Advances that were
made with respect to
delinquencies related to Mortgage Loans or REO Property that
were
ultimately determined
to be Excess Special Hazard Losses, Excess
Fraud Losses, Excess
Bankruptcy Losses or Extraordinary Losses,
and
(iv)
any other interest
shortfalls on the
Mortgage Loans not covered
by the subordination
provided by the Class
M Certificates
and
Class B Certificates,
including interest that is not collectible
from the Mortgagor pursuant to the Relief Act,
with all such reductions allocated among all of the
Certificates in
proportion
to their respective amounts of Accrued Certificate Interest payable on such
Distribution Date absent such reductions. In addition to that portion of the
reductions described in the preceding
sentence that are
allocated to any Class
of Class B Certificates or any Class of Class M Certificates, Accrued
Certificate Interest on such Class of Class B Certificates or such Class of
Class M Certificates will be reduced by the interest
portion (adjusted to the
Net Mortgage Rate) of Realized Losses that
are allocated solely to such Class of
Class B Certificates or such Class of Class M
Certificates pursuant
to Section
4.05.
Advance: As to any
Mortgage Loan,
any advance
made by the
Servicer,
pursuant to Section 4.04.
Affiliate: With
respect to any Person,
any other Person
controlling,
controlled by or under common control with such first Person.
For the purposes
of this definition, "control" means the power to direct
the management and
policies of such Person, directly or indirectly,
whether through the
ownership
of voting securities, by contract or otherwise; and the
terms "controlling" and
"controlled" have meanings correlative to
the foregoing.
Amount Held for Future
Distribution: With
respect to any
Distribution
Date, the total of the amounts
held in the
Custodial Account at the close of
business on the related Determination Date on account of (i) Liquidation
Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries, Insurance
Proceeds, Curtailments, Mortgage Loan
purchases made pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.04 or 4.07 and Mortgage Loan
substitutions made pursuant to Section 2.04 received or made in the month
of
such Distribution Date (other than such Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance
Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and purchases of Mortgage Loans that the
Servicer has deemed to have been received
in the preceding
month in
accordance
with Section 3.07(b)), and Principal Prepayments in Full
received or made after
the related Prepayment Period, and (ii) payments which
represent early receipt
of scheduled payments of principal and interest due on a date or dates
subsequent to the related Due Date.
Appraised Value:
As to any Mortgaged
Property, the lesser of (i) the
appraised value of such Mortgaged
Property based upon
the appraisal made at the
time of the origination of the related
Mortgage Loan, and
(ii) the sales price
of the Mortgaged Property at such time of
origination, except in
the case of a
Mortgaged Property securing a refinanced or modified
Mortgage Loan as to which
it is either the appraised value determined above or the appraised value
determined in an appraisal at the time of
refinancing or
modification,
as the
case may be, provided that if permitted by
the applicable underwriting standards
of GMACM, the Appraised Value shall be the value of the
Mortgaged Property
as
stated by the Mortgagor.
Assignment: An
assignment
of the Mortgage, notice of transfer or
equivalent instrument, in recordable form, sufficient under the laws of the
jurisdiction wherein the related Mortgaged Property is located to reflect
of
record the sale of the Mortgage Loan to the Trustee for the benefit of
Certificateholders, which assignment, notice of transfer or equivalent
instrument may be in the form of one or more blanket assignments covering
Mortgages secured by Mortgaged Properties located in the same county, if
permitted by law and accompanied by an
Opinion of Counsel to that effect.
Assignment of Proprietary Lease: With respect to a Cooperative
Loan, the
assignment of the related Cooperative Lease
from the Mortgagor to the originator
of the Cooperative Loan.
Available Distribution Amount: With respect to any Distribution
Date, an
amount equal to (a) the sum of (i) the
amount relating to the
Mortgage Loans on
deposit in the Custodial Account as of the close of
business on the immediately
preceding Determination Date, including any
Subsequent Recoveries,
and amounts
deposited in the Custodial Account in connection with the substitution of
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans, (ii)
the amount of any Advance made on the

3.16(e), reduced by (b) the sum as of the
close of business on the immediately
preceding Determination Date of (w) aggregate Foreclosure Profits, (x) the

the first
anniversary of the Cut-off Date, an amount
equal to the excess,
if any, of (A)
$100,000 over (B) the aggregate amount of
Bankruptcy Losses
allocated solely to
one or more specific Classes of
Certificates in accordance with Section 4.05. As
of any date of determination on or after the first anniversary of the Cut-off
Date, an amount equal to the excess, if
any, of:
(1) the lesser of (a) the Bankruptcy Amount calculated as of the
close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the most
recent anniversary of the Cut-off Date coinciding with or preceding

principal balance
of all the Mortgage Loans in the
Mortgage Pool as of
the Relevant
Anniversary
having a

origination which
exceeds 75% and
(ii) $100,000;
(B) (i) if the aggregate principal balance of the
Non-Primary Residence Loans as of the Relevant Anniversary
is less than 10% of the Stated Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loans as of the Relevant Anniversary, $0.00, or
(ii) if the aggregate principal balance of the Non-Primary
Residence Loans as of the Relevant Anniversary is equal to
or greater than 10% of the Stated Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loans as of the Relevant Anniversary, the sum of
(I) the aggregate
principal balance of the Non-Primary
Residence Loans with a Loan-to-Value Ratio of greater than
80.00% but less than or equal to 90.00%, times 0.25%, (II)
the aggregate

(III) the aggregate
principal balance of
the Non-Primary
Residence Loans with a Loan-to-Value Ratio of greater than
95.00% times
0.75%, in each case as of the Relevant
Anniversary; and
(C) the greater of (i) the product of (x) an amount equal
to the largest
difference in the related Monthly Payment
for any Non-Primary Residence Loan remaining in the
Mortgage Pool which had an original Loan-to-Value Ratio of
80% or greater that would result if the Net Mortgage Rate
thereof was equal to the weighted average (based on the
principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Relevant
Anniversary) of the
Net Mortgage Rates of all Outstanding
Mortgage Loans as of the Relevant Anniversary less 1.25%
per annum,
(y) a number
equal to the
weighted average
remaining term to maturity, in months, of all Non-Primary
Residence Loans
remaining in the
Mortgage Pool as of the
Relevant Anniversary, and (z) one plus the quotient of the
number of all Non-Primary Residence Loans remaining in the
Mortgage Pool divided
by the total number of
Outstanding
Mortgage Loans in the
Mortgage Pool as of the Relevant
Anniversary, and (ii) $50,000;
over
(2) the aggregate amount of Bankruptcy Losses allocated solely
to
one or more specific
Classes of Certificates in accordance with Section
4.05 since the Relevant Anniversary.
The Bankruptcy Amount may be further reduced by the Servicer
(including
accelerating the manner in which such coverage
is reduced) provided
that prior
to any such reduction, the Servicer shall (i) obtain
written confirmation
from
each Rating Agency that such reduction
shall not reduce the
rating assigned to
any Class of Certificates by such Rating Agency below the lower of the
then-current rating or the rating assigned to such Certificates as of the
Closing Date by such Rating Agency and (ii) provide a copy of such
written
confirmation to the Trustee.
Bankruptcy Code: The
Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended.
Bankruptcy Loss:
With respect to any Mortgage Loan, a Deficient
Valuation or Debt Service Reduction;
provided, however, that neither a Deficient
Valuation nor a Debt Service Reduction shall be deemed a Bankruptcy Loss
hereunder so long as the Servicer has notified the Trustee
in writing that the
Servicer is diligently pursuing any remedies that may
exist in connection
with
the representations and warranties
made regarding the related Mortgage Loan and
either (A) the related Mortgage Loan is not in default with regard
to payments
due thereunder or (B) delinquent payments of principal and interest
under the
related Mortgage Loan and any premiums on any applicable primary hazard
insurance policy and any related

Certificate Principal
Balance deemed to
have
occurred in connection with Realized Losses which were
previously
allocated to such

Agreement, any

into account in determining whether the
requisite amount of Percentage Interests
or Voting Rights necessary to effect any such
consent or
direction has been
obtained. All references herein to "Holders" or "Certificateholders" shall
reflect the rights of Certificate
Owners as they may
indirectly
exercise such
rights through the Depository and participating members thereof, except as
