         POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT, dated as of March 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, the "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.

 

                                     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 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.

(1)       For purposes of Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the Treasury

         regulations, the Distribution Date immediately 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 I

         Regular Interest.

(2)       Calculated in accordance with the definition of "Uncertificated REMIC I

         Pass-Through Rate" herein.

 

 

                                    REMIC II

 

         As provided herein, the Trustee will elect to treat the segregated pool

of assets consisting of the REMIC I Regular Interests as a REMIC for federal

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

"REMIC II". The Class R-2 Certificates will be the sole class of Residual

Interests in REMIC II for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The following table

irrevocably sets forth the designation, the Uncertificated REMIC II 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 II Regular Interests (as defined herein).

None of the REMIC II Regular Interests will be certificated.

         date for the Mortgage Loan with the latest maturity date has been

         designated as the "latest possible maturity date" for each REMIC II

         As provided herein, the Trustee will elect to treat the segregated pool

Residual Interests in REMIC III for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.

 

         The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation,

Pass-Through Rate, Initial Certificate Principal Balance (or initial

Uncertificated Principal Balance, in the case of the Class CE, P and IO

Interests) and, for purposes of satisfying Treasury Regulation Section

1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the "latest possible maturity date" for each class of

         Rate Cap. The Net Rate Cap for each such Regular Interest in REMIC III

          and Certificate is specified in the definition of "Net Rate Cap".

(4)       The Class CE Interest will accrue interest at its variable Pass-Through

         Rate on the Uncertificated Notional Amount of the Class CE Interest

         outstanding from time to time which shall equal the aggregate

         Uncertificated Principal Balance of the REMIC II Regular Interests

         (other than REMIC II Regular Interest P). The Class CE Interest will

(7)       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.
