THIS POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT, dated as of November 1, 2005, among HSI ASSET SECURITIZATION CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, as depositor (the “ Depositor ”), JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (“JPMorgan”), a national banking association, NATIONAL CITY HOME LOAN SERVICES, INC. and OPTION ONE MORTGAGE CORPORATION, as servicers (each, a “ Servicer ”), FIRST FRANKLIN FINANCIAL CORPORATION, NC CAPITAL CORPORATION and OPTION ONE MORTGAGE CORPORATION as mortgage loan originators (each, a “ Mortgage Loan Originator ”), WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A., a national banking association, as master servicer (in such capacity, the “ Master Servicer ”) as securities administrator (in such capacity, the “ Securities Administrator ”) and as custodian (in such capacity, “the Custodian ”), Clayton Fixed Income Services Inc. (the “Credit Risk Manager”) and DEUTSCHE BANK NATIONAL TRUST COMPANY, a national banking association, as trustee (the “ Trustee ”).

W I T N E S S E T H :

In consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

The Securities Administrator on behalf of the Trust Fund (exclusive of (i) the Swap Agreement, (ii) the right to receive and the obligation to pay Basis Risk Carryover Amounts, (iii) the Excess Reserve Fund Account, (iv) the Supplemental Interest Trust and the Supplemental Interest Trust Account and (v) the obligations to pay Class I Shortfalls (collectively, the “ Excluded Trust Assets ”) shall elect that two segregated asset pools within the Trust Fund be treated for federal income tax purposes as comprising three real estate mortgage investment conduits under Section 860D of the Code (each a “ REMIC ” or, in the alternative, “REMIC 1,” REMIC 2” and “REMIC 3,” REMIC 3 also being referred to herein as the “ Upper Tier REMIC .”)  Any inconsistencies or ambiguities in this Agreement or in the administration of this Agreement shall be resolved in a manner that preserves the validity of such REMIC election.  

Each Certificate, other than the Class R Certificates, represents ownership of a regular interest in the Upper Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.  In addition, each Certificate, other than the Class R, Class X and Class P Certificates, represents (i) the right to receive payments with respect to any Basis Risk Carryover Amounts and (ii) the obligation to pay Class I Shortfalls.  The Class R Certificate represents ownership of the sole Class of residual interest in each of REMIC 1, REMIC 2 and the Upper Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.

The Upper Tier REMIC shall hold as its assets the uncertificated Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 2, other than the Class LT2-R interest, and each such Lower Tier Interest is hereby designated as a regular interest in REMIC 2 for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.  REMIC 2 shall hold as its assets the uncertificated Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1, and each such Lower Tier Interest is hereby designated as a regular interest in REMIC 1.  REMIC 1 shall hold as its assets the property of the Trust Fund other than the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1 and REMIC 2 and the Excluded Trust Assets.

 

REMIC 1:

The following table sets forth the designations, principal balances and interest rates for each interest in REMIC 1, each of which (other than the Class LT1-R Lower Tier Interest) is hereby designated as a regular interest in REMIC 1 (the “REMIC 1 Regular Interests”):

(1)

For any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period) the interest rate for the Class LT1-A Interest shall be the Net WAC Rate.  

(2)

For any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period) the interest rate for each of these Lower Tier Interests shall be the lesser of (i) 9.70% and (ii) the product of (a) the Net WAC Rate and (b) 2.

(3)

For any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period) the interest rate for each of these Lower Tier Interests shall be the excess, if any, of (i) the product of (a) the Net WAC Rate and (b) 2, over (ii) 9.70%.

(4)

The Class LT1-R interest shall not have a principal amount and shall not bear interest.  The Class LT1-R interest is hereby designated as the sole class of residual interest in REMIC 1.

On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall first pay or charge as an expense of  REMIC 1 all expenses of the Trust Fund for such Distribution Date, other than any Net Swap Payment or Swap Termination Payment required to be made from the Trust Fund.

On each Distribution Date the Securities Administrator shall distribute the Interest Remittance Amount (net of expenses described in the preceding paragraph) with respect to each of the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1 based on the above-described interest rates.

On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall distribute the Principal Remittance Amount with respect to the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1, first to the Class LT1-A Interest until its principal balance is reduced to zero, and then sequentially, to the other Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1 in ascending order of their numerical class designation, and, with respect to each pair of classes having the same numerical designation, in equal amounts to each such class, until the principal balance of each such class is reduced to zero.  All losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated among the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1 in the same manner that principal distributions are allocated.

On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall distribute the Prepayment Premiums collected during the preceding Prepayment Period to the Class LT1-F40 and Class LT1-V40 Lower Tier Interests, respectively.

REMIC 2:

The following table sets forth the designations, principal balances and interest rates for each interest in REMIC 2, each of which (other than the Class LT2-R interest) is hereby designated as a regular interest in REMIC 2 (the “REMIC 2 Regular Interests”):

___________________________

(1)

For any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period) the interest rate for each of these Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 2 is a per annum rate equal to the weighted average of the interest rates on the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1 for such Distribution Date, provided, however, that (i) for any Distribution Date on which the Class LT2-IO Interest is entitled to a portion of the interest accruals on a Lower Tier Interest in REMIC 1 having an “F” in its class designation, as described in footnote two below, such weighted average shall be computed by first subjecting the rate on such Lower Tier Interest in REMIC 1 to a cap equal to Swap LIBOR for such Distribution Date.

(2)

The Class LT2-IO is an interest only class that does not have a principal balance.  For only those Distribution Dates listed in the first column in the table below, the Class LT2-IO shall be entitled to interest accrued on the Lower Tier Interest in REMIC 1 listed in second column in the table below at a per annum rate equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the interest rate for such Lower Tier Interest in REMIC 1 for such Distribution Date over (ii) Swap LIBOR for such Distribution Date.

(3)

The Class LT2-R interest is the sole class of residual interests in REMIC 2.  It does not have an interest rate or a principal balance.

(4)

This Lower Tier Interest shall have an initial class principal amount equal to one-half of the initial Class Principal Amount of its Corresponding Class of Certificates.

(5)

This Lower Tier Interest shall have an initial class principal amount equal to the excess of (i) the Pool Stated Principal Balance as of the Cut-off Date, over (ii) the aggregate initial Class Principal Amount of each other regular interest in REMIC 2 (other than any interest-only Lower Tier Interest).

On each Distribution Date, interest shall be distributed on the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 2 based on the above-described interest rates, provided, however, that interest that accrues on the Class LT2-Q Interest shall be deferred in an amount equal to one-half of the increase, if any, in the Overcollateralization Amount for such Distribution Date.  Any interest so deferred shall itself bear interest at the interest rate for the Class LT2-Q Interest.  An amount equal to the interest so deferred shall be distributed as additional principal on the other Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 2 having a principal balance in the manner described under priority (a) below.

On each Distribution Date principal shall be distributed, and Realized Losses shall be allocated, among the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 2 in the following order of priority:

(a)

First, to the Class LT2-I-A, Class LT2-II-A1, Class LT2-II-A2, Class LT2-II-A3, Class LT2-II-A4, Class LT2-M1, Class LT2-M2, Class LT2-M3, Class LT2-M4, Class LT2-M5 and Class LT2-M6 Interests until the principal balance of each such Lower Tier Interest equals one-half of the Class Principal Amount of the Corresponding Class of Certificates immediately after such Distribution Date; and

(b)

Second, to the Class LT2-Q Interests, any remaining amounts.

On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall be deemed to have distributed the Prepayment Premiums passed through with respect to the Class LT1-F40 and Class LT1-V40 Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1 on such Distribution Date  to the Class LT2-Q Interest.

Upper Tier REMIC

The Upper Tier REMIC shall issue the following Classes of Upper Tier REMIC Regular Interests and each such interest, other than the Class R Interest, is hereby designated as a regular interest in the Upper Tier REMIC.

Upper Tier REMIC

(1)

The Class I-A Interest will bear interest during each Interest Accrual Period at a per annum rate equal to (a) on or prior to the Optional Termination Date, the lesser of (i) LIBOR plus the applicable Interest Margin and (ii) the Group I Available Funds Cap or (b) after the Optional Termination Date, the lesser of (i) LIBOR plus the applicable Interest Margin and (ii) the Group I Available Funds Cap.  For purposes of the REMIC Provisions, the reference to “Group I Available Funds Cap” in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence shall be deemed a reference to the REMIC 2 Net Funds Cap; therefore, on any Distribution Date on which the Interest Rate for the Class I-A Certificates exceeds the REMIC 2 Net Funds Cap, interest accruals based on such excess shall be treated as having been paid from the Excess Reserve Fund Account or the Supplemental Interest Trust, as applicable; on any Distribution Date on which the Interest Rate on the Class I-A Certificates is based on the Group I Available Funds Cap, the amount of interest that would have accrued on the Class I-A Certificates if the REMIC 2 Net Funds Cap were substituted for the Group I Available Funds Cap shall be treated as having been paid by the Class I-A Certificateholders to the Supplemental Interest Trust, all pursuant to and as further provided in Section 8.11 hereof.

(2

(7)

For purposes of the REMIC Provisions, the Class X Interest shall have an initial principal balance of $2,879,319.46, and the right to receive distributions of such amount represents a regular interest in the Upper Tier REMIC.  The Class X Certificate shall also comprise two notional components, each of which represents a regular interest in the Upper Tier REMIC.  The first such component has a notional balance that will at all times equal the aggregate of the Class Principal Amounts of the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 2, and, for each Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period) this notional component shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the excess, if any, of (i) (a) the weighted average of the interest rates on the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 2 (other than any interest-only regular interest) minus (b) the Credit Risk Manager’s Fee Rate, over (ii) the Adjusted Lower Tier WAC.  The second notional component represents the right to receive all distributions in respect of the Class LT2-IO Interest in REMIC 2 (the “LT3-I” interest).  In addition, for purposes of the REMIC Provisions, the Class X Certificate shall represent beneficial ownership of (i) the Excess Reserve Fund Account; (ii) the Supplemental Interest Trust, including the Swap Agreement and (iii) an interest in the notional principal contracts described in Section 8.11 hereof.

(8)

The Class R Interest is the sole Class of residual interest in the Upper Tier REMIC.  The Class R Interest is issued without a principal amount does not bear a stated Interest Rate.  The Class R Certificate will be issued as a single certificate evidencing the initial Percentage Interest on such Class.

(9)

Each of these Certificates will represent not only the ownership of the Corresponding Class of Upper Tier REMIC Regular Interest but also the right to receive payments from the Excess Reserve Fund Account in respect of any Basis Risk Carryover Amounts and from the Supplemental Interest Trust in respect of proceeds from the Swap Agreement.  For federal income tax purposes, the Securities Administrator will treat a Certificateholder’s right to receive payments from the Excess Reserve Fund Account as payments made pursuant to an a notional principal contract written by the Class X Certificateholders.

(10)

The Class P Interest shall not bear interest at a stated Interest Rate.  Prepayment Charges paid with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be paid to the Class P Certificateholders as provided in Section 4.02(b).  For purposes of the REMIC Provisions, the Class P Interest shall represent a regular interest in the Upper Tier REMIC.  The Class P Certificate will have a Class P Principal Amount of $100.

 

The minimum denomination for each Class of Certificates, other than the Class P, Class R and the Class X Certificates, will be $25,000 ($100,000 with respect to initial investors resident in a Member State of the European Economic Area subject to Directive 2003/71/EC) with integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof except that one Certificate in each Class may be issued in a different amount.  The minimum denomination for each of the Class P and Class X Certificates will be a 10.00% Percentage Interest in such Class, and the minimum denomination for the Class R Certificates shall be 100% Percentage Interest in such Class.
