ASSET BACKED FUNDING CORPORATION, as depositor (the “ Depositor ”), OPTION ONE MORTGAGE CORPORATION, as servicer (the “ Servicer ”), and WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A., as trustee (the “ Trustee ”) are entering into this Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of September 1, 2006 (the “ Agreement ”).

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

The Depositor intends to sell pass-through certificates (collectively, the “ Certificates ”), to be issued hereunder in multiple Classes, which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund created hereunder. The Certificates will consist of twenty Classes of Certificates, designated as (i) the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3A, Class A-3B, Class A-3C and Class A-3D Certificates, (ii) the Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5, Class M-6, Class M-7, Class M-8 and Class M-9 Certificates, (iii) the Class B Certificates, (iv) the Class CE Certificates, (v) the Class P Certificates and (vi) the Class R and Class R-X Certificates. The descriptions of REMIC 1, REMIC 2, REMIC 3, REMIC 4, REMIC 5 and REMIC 6 that follow are part of the Preliminary Statement. Any inconsistencies or ambiguities in this Agreement or in the administration of this Agreement shall be resolved pursuant to the terms of Section 11.01 hereof in a manner that preserves the validity of such REMIC elections described below.

REMIC 1

As provided herein, the Trustee 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 (but exclusive of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, the Swap Account, the Class IO Distribution Amount, the Originator Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts, the Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts, the Cap Carryover Amounts and the Cap Carryover Reserve Account) 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 1.” The Class R-1 Interest will represent the sole class of “residual interests” in REMIC 1 for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation, the Uncertificated REMIC 1 Pass-Through Rate, the initial Uncertificated Balance, and solely for purposes of satisfying Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the Treasury regulations, the “latest possible maturity date” for each of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests. None of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests will be certificated.

For purposes of Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the Treasury regulations, the Distribution Date in the month following the maturity date for the Mortgage Loan with the latest maturity date has been designated as the “latest possible maturity date” for each REMIC 2 Regular Interest.

 

(2)

Calculated in accordance with the definition of “Uncertificated REMIC 2 Pass-Through Rate” herein.

 

(3)

REMIC 2 Regular Interest LTIO will have an Uncertificated Balance as specified in the definition thereof.

The foregoing REMIC 1 and REMIC 2 structure is intended to cause all the cash from the Mortgage Loans to flow through REMIC 3 as cash flow on a REMIC 3 Regular Interest, without creating any shortfall, actual or potential (other than for losses), to any REMIC 3 Regular Interest. To the extent that the structure is believed to diverge from such intention, the party identifying such ambiguity or drafting error shall notify the other parties hereto, and the parties hereto shall attempt to resolve such ambiguity or drafting error in accordance with Section 11.01 hereto.

REMIC 3

As provided herein, the Trustee shall make an election to treat the segregated pool of assets consisting of the REMIC 2 Regular Interests as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets will be designated as “REMIC 3.” The Class R-3 Interest represents the sole class of “residual interests” in REMIC 3 for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.

Each Class listed below (other than the Class P Interests) represents ownership of a Regular Interest in REMIC 3 and also represents either or both of (i) the right to receive payments with respect to the Cap Carryover Amount (as defined herein) and (ii) the obligation to pay or the right to receive payments from the Swap Account and Cap Carryover Reserve Account. The Class P Interests represent ownership of a Regular Interest in REMIC 3, but do not represent rights or obligations in respect of (i) or (ii) above. The entitlement to principal, if applicable, of the Regular Interest which corresponds to its related Certificate shall be equal in amount and timing to the entitlement to principal of such Certificate.

The following table sets forth (or describes) the Class designation, initial Uncertificated Balance, Interest Rate and Latest Possible Maturity Date for each Class of REMIC 3 Regular Interests comprising the “regular interests” in REMIC 3 for purposes of the REMIC Provisions:
