This Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, dated and effective as of June 1, 2005, is entered into
among Impac Secured Assets Corp., as company (the
“Company”), Impac Funding Corporation, as master
servicer (the “Master Servicer”), and Wells Fargo Bank,
N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”).
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:
The Company intends to sell
pass-through certificates (collectively, the
“Certificates”), to be issued hereunder in multiple
Classes, which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial
ownership interest in the Trust Fund created hereunder. The
Certificates will consist of twenty-three Classes of Certificates,
designated as the Class 1-A-1, Class 1-A-X, Class 2-A, Class 3-A-1,
Class 3-A-X, Class 4-A, Class 5-A-1, Class 5-A-2, Class 5-A-3,
Class 5-A-4, Class 5-A-5, Class 5-A-6, Class 5-A-7, Class 5-A-X,
Class R-I, Class R-II, Class R-III, Class B-1, Class B-2, Class
B-3, Class B-4, Class B-5 and Class B-6 Certificates.
REMIC 1
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 as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes, and such
segregated pool of assets will be designated as “REMIC
1.” The Class R-I Certificates will be the sole Class of
“residual interests” in REMIC 1 for purposes of the
REMIC Provisions (as defined herein). None of the REMIC 1 Regular
Interests will be certificated. The following table irrevocably
sets forth the designation, Uncertificated REMIC 1 Pass-Through
Rate and initial Uncertificate Principal Balance for each of the
“regular interests” in REMIC 1 created
