        This Pooling and Servicing Agreement, effective as of May 1, 2005, among

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

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

CORPORATION,   as master   servicer   (together   with its permitted   successors and

assigns,   the "Master   Servicer"),   and   JPMORGAN   CHASE BANK,   N.A.,   a banking

association   organized under the laws of the United States, as trustee (together

with its permitted successors and assigns, the "Trustee").

 

                                            PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

 

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

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

twenty-two   classes,   which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial

ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans (as defined herein).

 

                                                     REMIC I

 

        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 Reserve Fund,   the Swap Account and the

Swap 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   the   "regular    interests"   in   REMIC   I   (the   "REMIC   I   Regular

Interests").   The "latest   possible   maturity date"   (determined for purposes of

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

Regular   Interests   shall be the 360th   Distribution   Date.   The REMIC I Regular

Interests will not be certificated.

        As   provided   herein,   the REMIC   Administrator   will elect to treat the

segregated   pool of assets   consisting   of the REMIC II Regular   Interests   as a

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

be designated as REMIC III. The Class R-III Certificates will represent the sole

class of "residual   interests" in REMIC III for purposes of the REMIC Provisions

under federal   income tax law. The following   table   irrevocably   sets forth the

designation,   Pass-Through Rate, aggregate Initial Certificate Principal Balance

(or   Uncertificated   Principal   Balance,   in the   case   of the   Class   SB and IO

interests),   certain   features,   Final Scheduled   Distribution   Date and initial

ratings for each Class of   Certificates   comprising   the interests   representing

"regular   interests"   in REMIC III and the   Class R   Certificates.   The   "latest

possible   maturity   date"   (determined   for   purposes   of   satisfying    Treasury

Regulation Section   1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii))   for each Class of Regular Certificates

shall be the 360th Distribution Date.

 

        Each   Certificate,   other than the Class SB Certificate   and the Class R

Certificates,   represents   ownership of a regular interest in REMIC III and also

represents   (i) the right to receive   payments with respect to the related Basis

Risk   Shortfall   Carry-Forward   Amount and (ii) the   obligation   to pay Class IO

Distribution   Amount.   The   entitlement   to   principal   of the REMIC III regular

interest which corresponds to each such Certificate shall be equal in amount and

timing to the entitlement to principal of such Certificate.

(1) Calculated in accordance with the definition of "Pass-Through   Rate" herein.

    Each REMIC III   Regular   Interest   ownership   of which is   represented   by a

    Certificate will have the same Pass-Through Rate as that Certificate, except

    with respect to the Net WAC Cap Rate.   The Net WAC Cap Rate for each Regular

    Certificate   (other   than the   Class SB   Certificates)   and each   REMIC   III

    Regular Interest the ownership of which is represented   thereby is specified

    in the definition of Net WAC Cap Rate.

(2) On and after the second   Distribution Date after the first possible Optional

    Termination   Date,   the margin on each of the Class A-I-3   Certificates   and

    Class A-II   Certificates   will   double and the margin on each of the Class M

    Certificates and Class B Certificates will increase by 1.5 times.

(3) The Class SB Interest will accrue interest at its variable Pass-Through Rate

    on the Uncertificated   Notional Amount of the Class SB Interest   outstanding

    from time to time which shall equal the Uncertificated   Principal Balance of

    the REMIC II   Regular   Interests.   The   Class SB   Interest   will not   accrue

    interest on its Uncertificated Principal Balance.

(4) For   federal   income tax   purposes,   the Class IO   Interest   will not have a

    Pass-Through   Rate, but will be entitled to 100% of the amounts   distributed

    on REMIC II Regular Interest IO.

(5) For federal   income tax   purposes,   the Class IO   Interest   will not have an

    Uncertificated   Principal Balance,   but will have a notional amount equal to

    the Uncertificated Notional Amount of REMIC II Regular Interest IO.

(6) This Class of Certificates   represents   ownership of a "regular interest" in

    REMIC III.   Any amount   distributed   on this   Class of   Certificates   on any

    Distribution Date in excess of the amount distributable on the related REMIC

    III Regular Interest on such   Distribution Date shall be treated for federal

    income tax   purposes as having   been paid from the Reserve   Fund or the Swap

    Account,   as   applicable,   and any   amount   distributable   on such REMIC III

    Regular   Interest   on   such   Distribution   Date   in   excess   of   the   amount

    distributable on such Class of Certificates on such   Distribution Date shall

    be treated as having been paid to the Swap   Account,   all pursuant to and as
