among RESIDENTIAL ASSET MORTGAGE PRODUCTS, INC., as the depositor (together with

its permitted successors and assigns, the "Depositor"), RESIDENTIAL FUNDING

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

The Depositor intends to sell mortgage asset-backed pass-through

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 (exclusive of the Yield Maintenance Agreement) subject to

this Agreement as a real estate mortgage investment conduit (a "REMIC") for

federal income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets will be

designated as "REMIC I." The Class R-I Certificates will represent the sole

Class of "residual interests" in REMIC I for purposes of the REMIC Provisions

(as defined herein) under federal income tax law. The following table

irrevocably sets forth the designation, remittance rate (the "Uncertificated

REMIC I Pass Through Rate") and initial Uncertificated Principal Balance for

each of the "regular interests" in REMIC I (the "REMIC I Regular Interests").

The "latest possible maturity date" (determined solely for purposes of

satisfying Treasury regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii)) for each REMIC I

Regular Interest shall be the Maturity Date. None of the REMIC I Regular

Interests will be certificated.

(1) The Class A Certificates, Class M Certificates and Class B Certificates will

represent ownership of REMIC II Regular Interests together with certain

rights to payments to be made from amounts received under the Yield

Maintenance Agreement which will be deemed made for federal income tax

purposes outside of REMIC II by the holder of the Class SB Certificates as

the owner of the Yield Maintenance Agreement.

(2) The REMIC II Regular Interests ownership of which is represented by the

Class A Certificates, Class M Certificates and Class B Certificates, will

accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to the least of (i) One-Month

LIBOR plus the applicable Margin, (ii) a payment cap as described in the

definition of "Pass-Through Rate" and (iii) 11.00% per annum and the

provisions for the payment of Basis Risk Shortfalls herein, which payments

will not be part of the entitlement of the REMIC II Regular Interests

related to such Certificates.

(3) The Class A Certificates, Class M Certificates and Class B Certificates will

also entitle their holders to certain payments from the Holder of the Class

SB Certificates from amounts to which the related REMIC II Regular Interest

is entitled and from amounts received under the Yield Maintenance Agreement,

which will not be a part of their ownership of the REMIC II Regular

Interests

(4) The Class SB Certificates will accrue interest as described in the

definition of Accrued Certificate Interest. The Class SB Certificates will

not accrue interest on their Certificate Principal Balance. The Class SB

Certificates will be comprised of two REMIC II regular interests, a

principal only regular interest designated SB PO and an interest only

regular interest designated SB IO, which will be entitled to distributions

as set forth herein. The rights of the Holder of the Class SB Certificates

to payments from the Yield Maintenance Agreement shall be outside and apart

from its rights under the REMIC II Regular Interests SB IO and SB PO.

amount equal to the interest portion of Realized Losses allocated to the
