                  This Pooling and Servicing Agreement, is dated and effective

as of April 1, 2005, among AMERIQUEST MORTGAGE SECURITIES INC., as Depositor,

AMERIQUEST MORTGAGE COMPANY, as Master Servicer and DEUTSCHE BANK NATIONAL TRUST

                             PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

 

                  The Depositor intends to sell pass-through certificates

(collectively, the "Certificates"), to be issued hereunder in multiple classes,

which in the aggregate shall evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest

in each REMIC (as defined herein) created hereunder. The Trust Fund shall

consist of a segregated pool of assets consisting of the Mortgage Loans and

certain other related assets subject to this Agreement.

 

 

 

<PAGE>

 

 

 

                                      REMIC I

                                     -------

 

                  As provided herein, the Trustee shall elect to treat the

segregated pool of assets consisting of the Mortgage Loans and certain other

related assets (other than any Master Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment

Amounts, the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account, the Swap Account and the

Interest Rate Swap Agreement) subject to this Agreement as a REMIC for federal

income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets shall be designated as

"REMIC I." The Class R-I Interest shall be the sole class of "residual

interests" in REMIC I for purposes of the REMIC Provisions (as defined herein).

The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation, the REMIC I

Remittance Rate, the initial Uncertificated Balance and, for purposes of

satisfying Treasury regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the "latest possible

maturity date" for each of the REMIC I Regular Interests (as defined herein).

None of the REMIC I Regular Interests shall be certificated.

                                   DEFINITIONS

 

                  SECTION 1.01. Defined Terms.

 

                  Whenever used in this Agreement, including, without

limitation, in the Preliminary Statement hereto, the following words and

phrases, unless the context otherwise requires, shall have the meanings

specified in this Article. Unless otherwise specified, all calculations

described herein shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of

twelve 30-day months and all calculations on each Regular Interest shall be made

on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days in the month.

 

                  "Accrued Certificate Interest": With respect to any Class of

Certificates (other than the Class P Certificates and the Residual Certificates)

and each Distribution Date, interest accrued during the related Interest Accrual

Period at the Pass-Through Rate for such Certificate for such Distribution Date

on the Certificate Principal Balance, in the case of the Adjustable-Rate

Certificates and the Fixed-Rate Certificates, or on the Notional Amount, in the

case of the Class CE Certificates, of such Certificate immediately prior to such

Distribution Date. The Class P Certificates are not entitled to distributions in

respect of interest and, accordingly, shall not accrue interest. All

distributions of interest on the Adjustable-Rate Certificates shall be

calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days in the

applicable Interest Accrual Period. All distributions of interest on the

Fixed-Rate Certificates and the Class CE Certificates shall be based on a

360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Accrued Certificate Interest

with respect to each Distribution Date, as to any Class A Certificate or

Mezzanine Certificate, shall be reduced by an amount equal to the portion

allocable to such Certificate pursuant to Section 1.02 hereof of the sum of (a)

the aggregate Prepayment Interest Shortfall, if any, for such Distribution Date

to the extent not covered by payments pursuant to Section 4.03(e) or allocated

to the Class CE Certificates pursuant to Section 1.02 and (b) the aggregate

amount of any Relief Act Interest Shortfall, if any, for such Distribution Date

not allocated to the Class CE Certificates pursuant to Section 1.02. Accrued

Certificate Interest with respect to each Distribution Date and any Class CE

Certificate shall be reduced by (a) Prepayment Interest Shortfalls, if any,

allocated to such Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 1.02 hereof, (b)

Relief Act Interest Shortfalls, if any, allocated to such Class of Certificates

pursuant to Section 1.02 hereof and (c) an amount equal to the portion of

Realized Losses, if any, allocable to interest on the Class CE Certificate

pursuant to Section 4.04 hereof.

 

                  "Adjustable-Rate Certificates": The Class A Certificates and

the Mezzanine Certificates.

identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule as having a Mortgage Rate that is

subject to adjustment.

 

                  "Adjustment Date": With respect to each Adjustable-Rate

Mortgage Loan, the first day of the month in which the Mortgage Rate of such

Mortgage Loan changes pursuant to the related Mortgage Note. The first

Adjustment Date following the Cut-off Date as to each Adjustable-Rate Mortgage

Loan is set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule.

 

                  "Advance": As to any Mortgage Loan or REO Property, any

advance made by the Master Servicer or a successor Master Servicer in respect of

any Distribution Date representing the aggregate of all payments of principal

and interest, net of the Servicing Fee, that were due during the related Due

Period on the Mortgage Loans and that were delinquent on the related

Determination Date, plus certain amounts representing assumed payments not

covered by any current net income on the Mortgaged Properties acquired by

foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure as determined pursuant to Section

4.03.

 

                  "Affiliate": With respect to any specified Person, any other

Person controlling or controlled by or under common control with such specified

Person. For the purposes of this definition, "control," when used with respect

to any specified Person, 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.

amendments hereof and supplements hereto.

 

                  "Allocated Realized Loss Amount": With respect to any

Distribution Date and any Class of Mezzanine Certificates, the sum of (i) the

Realized Losses allocated to such Class of Certificates on such Distribution

Date and (ii) the amount of any Allocated Realized Loss Amount for such Class of
