        This   Pooling and   Servicing   Agreement,   effective   as of July 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

sixteen   Classes,   which in the aggregate   will   evidence the entire   beneficial

ownership   interest in the Mortgage Loans (as defined   herein) and certain other

related assets.

 

                                     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 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

each of 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

(1)   The Class A, Class M and Class B Certificates   will represent   ownership of

     REMIC II Regular   Interests   together with certain rights to payments to be

     made from amounts   received under the Swap   Agreement   which will be deemed

     made for federal   income tax purposes   outside of REMIC II by the holder of

     the Class SB Certificates as the owner of the Swap Agreement.

 

(2)   The REMIC II Regular   Interests   ownership of which is   represented   by the

     Class A, Class M and Class B   Certificates,   will accrue   interest at a per

     annum rate   equal to LIBOR   plus the   applicable   Margin,   each   subject to

     payment caps as described in the definition of "Pass-Through   Rate" and the

     provisions   for the payment of Class A Basis Risk   Shortfall   Carry-Forward

     Amounts,   Class M Basis Risk   Shortfall   Carry-Forward   Amounts and Class B

     Basis Risk Shortfall   Carry-Forward Amounts herein, which payments will not

     be part of the   entitlement   of the REMIC II Regular   Interests   related to

     such Certificates.

 

(3)   The Class A,   Class M and Class B   Certificates   will   also   entitle   their

     holders to certain   payments   from the Holder of the Class SB   Certificates

     from amounts to which the related REMIC II Regular Interest is entitled and

     from amounts received under the Swap Agreement, which will not be a part of

     their ownership of the REMIC II Regular Interests.

 

(4)   The   Class   SB   Certificates   will   accrue   interest   as   described   in the

     definition of Accrued Certificate Interest.   The Class SB Certificates will

     not accrue interest on their Certificate   Principal   Balance.   The Class SB

     Certificates   will be   comprised   of two   REMIC   II   regular   interests,   a

     principal   only   regular   interest   designated   SB-PO and an interest   only

     regular interest   designated SB-IO, which will be entitled to distributions

     as set forth herein.   The rights of the Holder of the Class SB Certificates

     to   payments   from the Swap   Agreement   shall be outside and apart from its

     rights under the REMIC II Regular Interests SB-IO and SB-PO.

 

        The Mortgage   Loans have an aggregate   Cut-off   Date   Principal   Balance

equal to   $500,000,180.   The Mortgage Loans are fixed-rate and   adjustable-rate,

fully   amortizing,   first   lien   mortgage   loans   having   terms to   maturity   at

origination or modification of generally not more than 30 years.

 

        In   consideration   of   the   mutual   agreements   herein   contained,    the

Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee agree as follows:

Loans   during the prior   calendar   month (to the extent not   covered by Eligible

Master   Servicing   Compensation   pursuant to Section   3.16) and by the amount of

Relief Act   Shortfalls on the Mortgage   Loans during the related Due Period,   in

each case to the extent   allocated   to that Class of   Certificates   pursuant   to

the Trustee   pursuant to Section 2.01 as from time to time are held or deemed to

be held as a part of the Trust Fund, the Mortgage Loans originally so held being

identified in the initial   Mortgage   Loan   Schedule,   and   Qualified   Substitute

Mortgage Loans held or deemed held as part of the Trust Fund including,   without

limitation,   (i) with respect to each   Cooperative   Loan,   the related   Mortgage

borne by the related   Mortgage   Note, or any   modification   thereto other than a

multiple of one-eighth of one percent   (0.125%) or up to the nearest   one-eighth

of one percent, which are indicated by a "U" on Exhibit G, except in the case of

the adjustable   rate Mortgage   Loans   indicated by an "X" on Exhibit G or hereto

(ii) the related Subservicing Fee Rate.

 

        Net Swap   Payment:   With   respect   to each   Distribution   Date,   the net

payment   required   to be made   pursuant   to the terms of the Swap   Agreement   by

Net Mortgage Rates) on the Mortgage Loans using the Net Mortgage Rates in effect

for the   Monthly   Payments   due on such   Mortgage   Loans   during the related Due

Period,   weighted   on the   basis of the   respective   Stated   Principal   Balances

thereof on the last day of the related   Due Period and (ii) a fraction   equal to

Servicer,   will not,   or,   in the case of a   proposed   Advance,   would   not,   be

ultimately   recoverable   by the Master   Servicer from related Late   Collections,

Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or REO Proceeds. To the extent that any

Mortgagor   is not   obligated   under the   related   Mortgage   documents   to pay or

reimburse   any   portion of any   Servicing   Advances   that are   outstanding   with

Mortgage Loan by the Master   Servicer,   which forgives   amounts which the Master

Servicer   or   Subservicer   had   previously   advanced,   and the   Master   Servicer

determines that no other source of payment or reimbursement for such advances is

available to it, such Servicing   Advances   shall be deemed to be   Nonrecoverable

Advances.   The   determination   by   the   Master   Servicer   that   it   has   made   a

Nonrecoverable Advance shall be evidenced by an Officer's Certificate, delivered

to the   Depositor,   the   Trustee   and the   Master   Servicer   setting   forth such

determination,   which shall include any other information or reports obtained by

the Master Servicer such as property operating statements,   rent rolls, property

inspection    reports   and    engineering    reports,    which   may    support    such

determinations. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely

upon any   determination by the Master Servicer that any Advance   previously made
