POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT, dated as of October 1, 2005, among BEAR STEARNS ASSET BACKED SECURITIES I LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as depositor (the “Depositor”), EMC MORTGAGE CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, as seller (in such capacity, a “Seller”) and as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”) and LASALLE BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association, not in its individual capacity, but solely as trustee (the “Trustee”).

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

The Depositor is the owner of the Trust Fund that is hereby conveyed to the Trustee in return for the Certificates. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor acquired the Initial Mortgage Loans from the Seller. On the Closing Date, the Depositor will sell the Initial Mortgage Loans and certain other property to the Trust Fund and receive in consideration therefor Certificates evidencing the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund. On or prior to any Subsequent Transfer Date, the Depositor acquired the Subsequent Mortgage Loans, which will be sold to the Trust on the related Subsequent Transfer Date.

REMIC I

As provided herein, the Trustee will elect to treat the segregated pool of assets consisting of the Mortgage Loans and certain other related assets subject to this Agreement (other than the Reserve Fund, the Pre-Funding Account, the Interest Coverage Account, any Prepayment Charge Waiver Amounts and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Swap Agreement, the Swap Account and any rights or obligations in respect of the Swap Administration Agreement) as a REMIC (as defined herein) for federal income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets will be designated as “REMIC I”. The Class R-1 Certificates will be the sole class of Residual Interests (as defined herein) in REMIC I for purposes of the REMIC Provisions (as defined herein). The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation, the Uncertificated REMIC I Pass-Through Rate, the initial Uncertificated Principal 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 will be certificated.
