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

following the maturity date for the Mortgage Loan with the latest

|
|
(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:

Interest will accrue on these REMIC 3 Regular
Interests at a per annum rate equal to the lesser of (i) the lesser
of (a) One Month LIBOR as of the related LIBOR Determination Date,
plus the related Certificate Margin and (b) the related Maximum
Rate Cap and (ii) the REMIC 3 Cap.
|
For purposes of the REMIC Provisions,
with respect to each REMIC 3 Regular Interest, each reference to a
Cap in the applicable Certificate Interest Rate of the
Corresponding Class of Certificates shall be deemed to be a
reference to the REMIC 3 Cap; therefore, on any Distribution Date
on which the Certificate Interest Rate for the Class of
Certificates exceeds the REMIC 3 Cap, interest
6
accruals based on such excess shall
be treated as having been paid from the Cap Carryover Reserve
Account or the Supplemental Interest Trust, as applicable. On any
Distribution Date on which the Certificate Interest Rate on a Class
of Certificates is based on the applicable Cap, the amount of
interest that would have accrued on such Class of Certificates if
the REMIC 3 Cap were substituted for the applicable Cap shall be
treated as having been paid by the related Class of Certificates to
