Supplement"), to the Standard Terms of Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as

of December 1, 2004 and   attached as Exhibit Five hereto (the   "Standard   Terms"

and, together with this Series Supplement, the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement"

or "Agreement"),   among RESIDENTIAL   FUNDING MORTGAGE SECURITIES I, INC., as the

company   (together with its permitted   successors and assigns,   the   "Company"),

RESIDENTIAL FUNDING CORPORATION, as master servicer (together with its permitted

successors   and   assigns,   the   "Master   Servicer"),    and   U.S.   BANK   NATIONAL

                                    PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

 

        The   Company    intends   to   sell   Mortgage    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.   As   provided   herein,   the REMIC   Administrator   will make an

election   to   treat   the   entire   segregated   pool of   assets   described   in the

definition   of   REMIC I (as   defined   herein),   and   subject   to this   Agreement

(including the Mortgage Loans but excluding the Initial   Monthly   Payment Fund),

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

Uncertificated   REMIC I Regular Interests will be "regular interests" in REMIC I

and the Class R-I Certificates will be the sole class of "residual interests" in

REMIC I for purposes of the REMIC Provisions (as defined   herein).   A segregated

pool of assets consisting of the   Uncertificated   REMIC I Regular Interests will

be   designated   as "REMIC II" and the REMIC   Administrator   will make a separate

REMIC election with respect thereto.   The Class I-A-1 Certificates,   Class I-A-2

Certificates,   Class I-A-3   Certificates,   Class II-A Certificates,   Class III-A

Certificates,    Class   M-1   Certificates,   Class   M-2   Certificates,   Class   M-3

Certificates,   Class   B-1   Certificates,   Class B-2   Certificates   and Class B-3

Certificates,   will be   "regular   interests"   in   REMIC   II and the   Class   R-II

Certificates will be the sole class of "residual interests" therein for purposes

of the REMIC Provisions.

 

        The terms and provisions of the Standard   Terms are hereby   incorporated

by reference herein as though set forth in full herein. If any term or provision

contained   herein shall   conflict   with or be   inconsistent   with any   provision

contained   in the   Standard   Terms,   the terms   and   provisions   of this   Series

Supplement   shall govern.   Any   cross-reference   to a section of the Pooling and

Servicing   Agreement,   to the extent the terms of the Standard   Terms and Series

Supplement conflict with respect to that section,   shall be a cross-reference to

the   related   section   of the   Series   Supplement.   All   capitalized   terms   not

otherwise   defined   herein   shall have the   meanings   set forth in the   Standard

Terms. The Pooling and Servicing   Agreement shall be dated as of the date of the

Series Supplement.

 

        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

Uncertificated   REMIC I Regular Interests.   None of the   Uncertificated   REMIC I

the next Adjustment Date.

 

        Pass-Through   Rate:   With   respect to the Class   I-A-1,   Class I-A-2 and

as the   weighted   average of the   Pass-Through   Rate on   Uncertificated   REMIC I

Regular   Interest   I-B,   weighted on the basis of the   Uncertificated   Principal

Balance of such Uncertificated   REMIC I Regular Interest   immediately   preceding

the related   Distribution   Date. The Pass-Through Rate on the Class I-A-1, Class

I-A-2 and Class I-A-3   Certificates   with respect to the first Interest   Accrual

Group II Loans.   For   federal   income   tax   purposes,   however,   the Class   II-A

Certificates   and   the   Class   R   Certificates   will   bear   interest   at a   rate

equivalent   to   the   foregoing,    expressed   as   the   weighted   average   of   the

Pass-Through Rate on Uncertificated   REMIC I Regular Interest II-B,   weighted on

the basis of the Uncertificated Principal Balance of such Uncertificated REMIC I

Regular   Interest   immediately   preceding   the related   Distribution   Date.   The

Pass-Through   Rate on the Class II-A   Certificates and Class R Certificates with

respect to the first   Interest   Accrual   Period is expected to be   approximately

4.916% per annum. With respect to the Class III-A Certificates, the Net WAC Rate

of the Group III Loans.   For federal   income tax   purposes,   however,   the Class

III-A   Certificates   will bear interest at a rate   equivalent to the   foregoing,

expressed as the weighted   average of the   Pass-Through   Rate on   Uncertificated

REMIC I Regular   Interest   III-B,   weighted   on the basis of the   Uncertificated

Principal Balance of such   Uncertificated   REMIC I Regular Interest   immediately

preceding the related   Distribution   Date.   The   Pass-Through   Rate on the Class

III-A Certificates with respect to the first Interest Accrual Period is expected

Group I Loans, Group II Loans and Group III Loans,   weighted on the basis of the

Group   I   Subordinate   Amount,    Group   II   Subordinate   Amount   and   Group   III

Subordinate   Amount,   respectively.   This   determination   will be made as of the

related   Distribution   Date prior to giving effect to any   distributions   on the

Certificates on that date. The Pass-Through Rate on the Class M Certificates and

Class B   Certificates   with   respect   to the first   Interest   Accrual   period is

expected to be approximately   4.688% per annum. For federal income tax purposes,

however, the Class M Certificates and Class B Certificates will bear interest at

a rate   equivalent to the   foregoing,   expressed as the weighted   average of the

Uncertificated   REMIC I   Pass-Through   Rates on   Uncertificated   REMIC I Regular

Interests   I-A,   II-A,   and III-A,   weighted on the basis of the   Uncertificated

Principal   Balance   of   each   such   Uncertificated    REMIC   I   Regular   Interest

immediately preceding the related Distribution Date, provided that, for purposes

of such weighted average,   the Uncertificated   REMIC I Pass-Through Rate of each

such   Uncertificated   REMIC I Regular   Interest   shall be subject to a cap and a

floor   equal   to   the    Uncertificated    REMIC   I    Pass-Through    Rate   of   the

Uncertificated   REMIC I Regular Interest from the related Loan Group ending with

the designation "B".

                                       11

<PAGE>

 

               (ii) For any   Distribution   Date for which   clause (i) above does

        not   apply,   and on which   any   Class   of   Subordinate   Certificates   is

        outstanding with a Certificate Principal Balance greater than zero:

 

                      (a) in the case of the Class of   Subordinate   Certificates

                then   outstanding   with the Highest Priority and each other Class

               of   Subordinate   Certificates   for which the   related   Prepayment

               Distribution Trigger has been satisfied, a fraction, expressed as

               a percentage, the numerator of which is the Certificate Principal

               Balance   of such   Class   immediately   prior to such   date and the

               denominator   of   which   is the sum of the   Certificate   Principal

        result in a distribution in respect of principal of any Class or Classes

        of   Subordinate   Certificates   in an amount   greater than the   remaining

        Certificate   Principal   Balance   thereof   (any such   class,   a "Maturing

        Class"),   then:   (a)   the   Prepayment   Distribution   Percentage   of each

        Maturing   Class   shall be   reduced   to a level   that,   when   applied   as

        "Non-Maturing   Class")   shall be   recalculated   in   accordance   with the

        provisions   in paragraph   (ii) above,   as if the   Certificate   Principal

        Balance of each Maturing Class had been reduced to zero (such percentage

        as recalculated, the "Recalculated Percentage"); (c) the total amount of

        the   reductions   in   the   Prepayment   Distribution   Percentages   of   the

        Maturing   Class or   Classes   pursuant   to clause   (a) of this   sentence,

        expressed   as an   aggregate   percentage,   shall be   allocated   among the

        Non-Maturing   Classes in   proportion   to their   respective   Recalculated

        of such   Distribution   Date, the Prepayment   Distribution   Percentage of

        each Non-Maturing   Class shall be equal to the sum of (1) the Prepayment

        Distribution   Percentage   thereof,   calculated   in   accordance   with the

         provisions   in   paragraph   (ii)   above as if the   Certificate   Principal

        Balance of each   Maturing   Class had not been reduced to zero,   plus (2)

        the related Adjustment Percentage.

(iv)     To the best of the Company's knowledge, if a Mortgage Loan is secured by

        of the related   Mortgaged   Property as of the date the Mortgage Loan was

        originated was not less than the appraised value of such property at the

        time   of   origination   of   the   refinanced   Mortgage   Loan   or   (b)   the

to the   Certificateholders   or the Trustee on behalf of the   Certificateholders.

Notwithstanding   the   foregoing,   the   Company   shall   not be   required   to cure

breaches   or   purchase   or   substitute   for   Mortgage   Loans as provided in this

Section   2.03(b) if the   substance of the breach of a   representation   set forth

above also constitutes fraud in the origination of the Mortgage Loan.

 

Section 2.04    Representations and Warranties of Sellers.

               -----------------------------------------

 

        The Company,   as assignee of   Residential   Funding under the   Assignment

Agreement,   hereby assigns to the Trustee for the benefit of   Certificateholders

all of its right, title and interest in respect of the Assignment   Agreement and

each Seller's   Agreement (to the extent assigned to the Company   pursuant to the

Assignment   Agreement)   applicable to a Mortgage Loan. Insofar as the Assignment

Agreement or the Company's   rights under such Seller's   Agreement   relate to the

representations and warranties made by Residential Funding or the related Seller

in respect of such Mortgage Loan and any remedies   provided   thereunder   for any

breach of such   representations   and warranties,   such right, title and interest

may be   enforced   by the   Master   Servicer   on   behalf   of the   Trustee   and the

Certificateholders.   Upon the discovery by the Company, the Master Servicer, the

Trustee   or   any   Custodian   of a   breach   of any   of   the   representations   and

warranties   made in a Seller's   Agreement that have been assigned to the Trustee

pursuant to this Section 2.04 or of a breach of any of the   representations   and

warranties made in the Assignment Agreement (which, for purposes hereof, will be

deemed to include any other cause giving rise to a repurchase   obligation   under

the Assignment   Agreement) in respect of any Mortgage Loan which   materially and

adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan,

the party   discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other

parties (any   Custodian   being so obligated   under a Custodial   Agreement).   The

Master Servicer shall promptly notify the related Seller or Residential Funding,

as the case may be, of such breach and request   that such Seller or   Residential

Funding,   as the case   may be,   either   (i) cure   such   breach   in all   material

respects   within 90 days from the date the Master   Servicer was notified of such

breach or (ii)   purchase   such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase

Price and in the manner set forth in Section 2.02;   provided that in the case of

a breach   under the   Assignment   Agreement   Residential   Funding   shall have the

option to   substitute   a Qualified   Substitute   Mortgage   Loan or Loans for such

Mortgage Loan if such substitution occurs within two years following the Closing

Date; provided that if the breach would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than

a "qualified   mortgage" as defined in Section   860G(a)(3) of the Code,   any such

cure,   repurchase   or   substitution   must occur within 90 days from the date the

breach was discovered.   If the breach of   representation   and warranty that gave

rise to the   obligation   to repurchase or substitute a Mortgage Loan pursuant to

Section 4 of the Assignment   Agreement was the   representation   and warranty set

forth in clause   (xxxi) of Section 4 thereof,   then the   Master   Servicer   shall

request that Residential Funding pay to the Trust Fund, concurrently with and in

addition to the remedies provided in the preceding sentence,   an amount equal to

any liability,   penalty or expense that was actually incurred and paid out of or

on behalf of the Trust Fund, and that directly   resulted from such breach, or if

incurred and paid by the Trust Fund thereafter,   concurrently with such payment.

In   the   event   that   Residential   Funding   elects   to   substitute   a   Qualified

Substitute   Mortgage Loan or Loans for a Deleted   Mortgage Loan pursuant to this

Section 2.04,   Residential   Funding shall deliver to the Trustee for the benefit

of the   Certificateholders   with respect to such Qualified   Substitute   Mortgage

Loan or Loans,   the original   Mortgage Note, the Mortgage,   an Assignment of the

Mortgage in recordable form if required pursuant to Section 2.01, and such other

documents and agreements as are required by Section 2.01, with the Mortgage Note

endorsed   as   required   by Section   2.01.   No   substitution   will be made in any

calendar month after the Determination Date for such month. Monthly Payments due

with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution

shall not be part of the Trust Fund and will be retained by the Master   Servicer

 

 

                                       22

<PAGE>

 

and   remitted   by the   Master   Servicer   to   Residential   Funding   on   the   next

succeeding   Distribution   Date. For the month of substitution,   distributions to

the   Certificateholders   will   include   the   Monthly   Payment   due on a   Deleted

Mortgage   Loan   for such   month   and   thereafter   Residential   Funding   shall be

entitled to retain all   amounts   received   in respect of such   Deleted   Mortgage

Loan.   The Master   Servicer shall amend or cause to be amended the Mortgage Loan

Schedule,   and, if the Deleted   Mortgage Loan was a Discount   Mortgage Loan, the

Schedule of Discount   Fractions,   for the benefit of the   Certificateholders   to

reflect the removal of such Deleted   Mortgage Loan and the   substitution   of the

Qualified   Substitute   Mortgage   Loan or Loans   and the   Master   Servicer   shall

deliver the amended   Mortgage Loan Schedule,   and, if the Deleted   Mortgage Loan

was a Discount Mortgage Loan, the amended Schedule of Discount Fractions, to the

Trustee. Upon such substitution, the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans

shall be subject to the terms of this   Agreement   and the   related   Subservicing

Agreement in all respects,   the related   Seller shall be deemed to have made the

representations and warranties with respect to the Qualified Substitute Mortgage

Loan contained in the related Seller's Agreement as of the date of substitution,

insofar as Residential   Funding's rights in respect of such   representations and

warranties are assigned to the Company pursuant to the Assignment Agreement, and

the Company and the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have made with respect to

any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the date of substitution,

the covenants, representations and warranties set forth in this Section 2.04, in

Section 2.03 hereof and in Section 4 of the Assignment Agreement, and the Master

Servicer   shall be obligated   to   repurchase   or   substitute   for any   Qualified

Substitute   Mortgage   Loan as to which a   Repurchase   Event (as   defined   in the

Assignment   Agreement)   has   occurred   pursuant   to Section 4 of the   Assignment

Agreement.

 

        In connection with the substitution of one or more Qualified   Substitute

Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted   Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer will

determine   the amount (if any) by which the aggregate   principal   balance of all

such Qualified   Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of substitution is less

than the aggregate Stated   Principal   Balance of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans

(in each case after application of the principal portion of the Monthly Payments

due   in   the   month   of    substitution    that   are   to   be   distributed   to   the

Certificateholders   in the month of   substitution).   Residential   Funding   shall

deposit the amount of such   shortfall   into the Custodial   Account on the day of

 

 

                                       23

<PAGE>

 

substitution, without any reimbursement therefor. Residential Funding shall give

notice   in   writing   to the   Trustee   of   such   event,   which   notice   shall   be

accompanied by an Officers'   Certificate as to the calculation of such shortfall

and   (subject to Section   10.01(f))   by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that

such   substitution will not cause (a) any federal tax to be imposed on the Trust

Fund,   including   without   limitation,   any federal   tax imposed on   "prohibited

transactions"   under Section   860F(a)(1) of the Code or on "contributions   after

the startup date" under Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code or (b) any portion of any

REMIC   to   fail   to   qualify   as   such   at any   time   that   any   Certificate   is

outstanding.

 

        It is   understood   and   agreed   that the   obligation   of the   Seller   or

Residential   Funding, as the case may be, to cure such breach or purchase (or in

the case of   Residential   Funding to   substitute   for) such   Mortgage Loan as to

which such a breach has occurred and is   continuing   and to make any   additional

payments required under the Assignment   Agreement in connection with a breach of

the   representation   and   warranty in clause   (xxxi) of Section 4 thereof   shall

constitute    the   sole   remedy    respecting    such   breach    available    to   the

Certificateholders or the Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders. If the Master

Servicer is Residential   Funding,   then the Trustee shall also have the right to

give the notification   and require the purchase or substitution   provided for in

the second preceding paragraph in the event of such a breach of a representation

or   warranty   made   by   Residential   Funding   in the   Assignment   Agreement.   In

connection   with the purchase of or   substitution   for any such Mortgage Loan by

Residential   Funding, the Trustee shall assign to Residential Funding all of the

Trustee's right, title and interest in respect of the Seller's Agreement and the

Assignment Agreement applicable to such Mortgage Loan.

 

Section 2.05    Execution and Authentication of Certificates.

               --------------------------------------------

 

        The Trustee   acknowledges the assignment to it of the Mortgage Loans and

the   delivery   of the   Mortgage   Files to it, or any   Custodian   on its   behalf,

subject to any exceptions noted, together with the assignment to it of all other

assets   included   in the Trust   Fund,   receipt of which is hereby   acknowledged.

Concurrently with such delivery and in exchange therefor, the Trustee,   pursuant

to the written request of the Company   executed by an officer of the Company has

executed and caused to be   authenticated   and   delivered to or upon the order of

the   Company   the   Certificates   in   authorized    denominations   which   evidence

ownership of the entire Trust Fund.

        thereof has been reduced to zero;

(c)      Prior to the occurrence of the Credit   Support   Depletion Date but after

        the reduction of the Certificate   Principal Balances of any of the Group

        I, Group II or Group III   Certificates   to zero, the remaining   Group I,

        Group II or Group III Certificates,   as applicable,   will be entitled to

        receive,   on a pro   rata   basis,   based   on   the   Certificate   Principal

        Balances of the   related   Certificates,   in   addition   to any   Principal

        Prepayments   in Full   and   Curtailments   related   to such   Certificates'

        respective   Loan Group,   100% of the Principal   Prepayments   in Full and

        Certificates   that have been reduced to zero, and in accordance with the

        priorities set forth in clause   4.02(b)   above,   and in reduction of the

        Certificate   Principal Balances thereof, on any Distribution Date unless

        (i) the weighted average of the initial Subordinate Percentages for each

        Loan Group,   weighted on the basis of the Stated   Principal   Balances of

        the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group,   is at least two times the

        weighted   average of the initial   Subordinate   Percentages for each Loan

        Group   (calculated   on such   basis) and (ii) the   outstanding   principal

        balance of the Mortgage   Loans in each Loan Group   delinquent 60 days or

        more averaged over the last six months, as a percentage of the aggregate

        outstanding   Certificate   Principal   Balance of the Class M Certificates

        and   Class B   Certificates,   is   less   than   50%.   In   addition,   on any

        Distribution   Date prior to the Credit   Support   Depletion Date on which

        the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of any of the Group I, Group

        II or   Group   III   Certificates,   as   applicable,   is   greater   than the

        aggregate Stated Principal   Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related

        Loan Group in each case after giving effect to   distributions to be made

        on such Distribution Date, (1) 100% of the Principal Prepayments in Full

        and   Curtailments   allocable   on   a   pro   rata   basis   to   the   Class   M

        Certificates and Class B Certificates on the Mortgage Loans in the other

        Loan   Groups   will be   distributed   to such Class or Classes of Group I,

        Group II or Group III   Certificates,   as   applicable,   and in accordance

        with the priorities set forth in clause 4.02(b) above,   and in reduction

        of the   Certificate   Principal   Balances   thereof,   until the   aggregate

        Certificate   Principal   Balance of such Class or Classes of Certificates

        equals the aggregate Stated   Principal   Balance of the Mortgage Loans in

        the related Loan Group,   and (2) an amount equal to one month's interest

        at the   applicable   Pass-Through   Rate for   such   Class   or   Classes   of

        Certificates on the amount of such   difference will be distributed   from

        the Available Distribution Amount for the other Loan Groups allocable on

        a pro rata basis to the Class M   Certificates   and Class B   Certificates

        first   to   pay   any   unpaid    interest   on   such   Class   or   Classes   of

        Certificates   and then to pay   principal   on such   Classes in the manner

        described in (1) above.

 

(d)      After the reduction of the Certificate   Principal Balances of the Senior

        Certificates   in a   certificate   group to zero but   prior to the   Credit

        Support Depletion Date, the related Senior Certificates will be entitled

        to no   further   distributions   of   principal   thereon   and   the   related

        Available   Distribution Amount will be paid solely to the holders of the

        Subordinate Certificates, in each case as described herein.

 

(e)      On or after the   occurrence of the Credit   Support   Depletion   Date, all

        priorities   relating to   distributions   as described in clauses   Section

        4.02(b)   above in   respect of   principal   among the   various   classes of

        Senior   Certificates will be disregarded,   and (i) the applicable Senior

        Principal   Distribution   Amount   will be   distributed   to the   remaining

        Classes of related Senior Certificates pro rata in accordance with their

        respective   outstanding   Certificate   Principal   Balances,   and (ii) the

        amount set forth in Section   4.02(a)(i) will be distributed as set forth

        therein.

 

                                        31

(f)      In   addition   to   the   foregoing   distributions,   with   respect   to   any

        Subsequent Recoveries, the Master Servicer shall deposit such funds into

        the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.07(b)(iii). If, after taking

        into account such Subsequent   Recoveries,   the amount of a Realized Loss

        is reduced, the amount of such Subsequent   Recoveries will be applied to

        increase the Certificate   Principal   Balance of the Class of Subordinate

        Certificates   with the Highest Priority to which Realized Losses,   other

        than Excess   Bankruptcy   Losses,   Excess Fraud   Losses,   Excess   Special

        Hazard Losses and Extraordinary Losses, have been allocated,   but not by

        more than the amount of Realized   Losses   previously   allocated   to that

        Class of   Certificates   pursuant   to   Section   4.05.   The   amount of any

        remaining   Subsequent    Recoveries   will   be   applied   to   increase   the

         Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates with the next

        Lower   Priority,   up to the amount of such   Realized   Losses   previously

        allocated to that Class of   Certificates   pursuant to Section 4.05.   Any

        remaining Subsequent   Recoveries will in turn be applied to increase the

        Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates with the next

        Lower   Priority   up to the   amount of such   Realized   Losses   previously

        allocated to that Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 4.05, and so

        on. Holders of such   Certificates will not be entitled to any payment in

        respect of Accrued Certificate   Interest on the amount of such increases

        for any Interest Accrual Period preceding the Distribution Date on which

        such   increase   occurs.   Any   such   increases   shall be   applied   to the

        Certificate   Principal   Balance   of each   Certificate   of such   Class in

        accordance with its respective Percentage Interest.

 

(g)      Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be paid

        to the Depository, as Holder thereof, and the Depository shall be solely

        responsible   for   crediting   the   amount   of   such   distribution   to the

        accounts of its Depository   Participants   in accordance   with its normal

        procedures.    Each   Depository   Participant   shall   be   responsible   for

        disbursing   such    distribution   to   the   Certificate    Owners   that   it

        represents   and   to   each   indirect   participating    brokerage   firm   (a

        "brokerage   firm") for which it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall

        be responsible for disbursing   funds to the   Certificate   Owners that it

        represents.   None of the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Company

        or the Master Servicer shall have any responsibility therefor.

 

(h)      Except as otherwise   provided in Section   9.01,   if the Master   Servicer

        anticipates   that a final   distribution   with   respect   to any   Class of

        Certificates   will be made on a future   Distribution   Date,   the   Master

        Servicer shall, no later than 60 days prior to such final   distribution,

        notify the Trustee and the Trustee shall,   not earlier than the 15th day

        and not later than the 25th day of the month next preceding the month of

        such   final   distribution,    mail   to   each   Holder   of   such   Class   of

        Certificates   a notice to the effect that:   (i) the Trustee   anticipates

         that the final   distribution   with respect to such Class of Certificates

        will be made on such   Distribution   Date but only upon   presentation and

        surrender   of such   Certificates   at the   office   of the   Trustee   or as

        otherwise   specified therein,   and (ii) no interest shall accrue on such

        Certificates   from and after the end of the prior calendar month. In the

        event that   Certificateholders   required to surrender their Certificates

        pursuant to Section   9.01(c) do not   surrender   their   Certificates   for

        final   cancellation,   the Trustee shall cause funds   distributable   with

        respect   to such   Certificates   to be   withdrawn   from   the   Certificate

        Account   and   credited to a separate   escrow   account for the benefit of

        such Certificateholders as provided in Section 9.01(d).

Section 4.05    Allocation of Realized Losses.

 

         Prior to each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall determine the

total   amount   of   Realized   Losses,    if   any,   that   resulted   from   any   Cash

Liquidation, Servicing Modification, Debt Service Reduction, Deficient Valuation

or REO Disposition that occurred during the related Prepayment Period or, in the

case of a Servicing   Modification   that   constitutes a reduction of the interest

rate on a Mortgage Loan, the amount of the reduction in the interest   portion of

the   Monthly   Payment   due during the   related   Due   Period.   The amount of each

Realized   Loss shall be   evidenced   by an   Officers'   Certificate.   All Realized

Losses, other than Excess Special Hazard Losses,   Extraordinary   Losses,   Excess

Bankruptcy Losses or Excess Fraud Losses, shall be allocated as follows:   first,

to the Class B-3 Certificates   until the Certificate   Principal   Balance thereof

has been   reduced   to zero;   second,   to the   Class B-2   Certificates   until the

Certificate   Principal   Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;   third, to the

Class B-1 Certificates until the Certificate   Principal Balance thereof has been

reduced to zero;   fourth,   to the Class M-3   Certificates   until the Certificate

Principal   Balance   thereof has been   reduced to zero;   fifth,   to the Class M-2

Certificates until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to

zero;   sixth,   to the Class M-1   Certificates   until the   Certificate   Principal

Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; and, thereafter,   such Realized Losses

(A) in the case of a Group I Loan,   to the Group I   Certificates   in the case of

the   principal   portion of such loss and in the case of the interest   portion of

such loss,   except that Realized Losses   otherwise   allocable to the Class I-A-2

Certificates,   will be   allocated   to the Class   I-A-3   Certificates,   until the

Certificate   Principal Balance of the Class I-A-3   Certificates has been reduced

to zero, (B) in the case of a Group II Loan,   among the Group II Certificates in

the case of the   principal   portion of such loss on a pro rata basis,   and among

the Group II Certificates in the case of the interest   portion of such loss on a

pro rata   basis,   and (C) in the case of a Group   III   Loan,   to the   Group   III

Certificates   in the case of the principal   portion of such loss and in the case

of the interest portion of such loss (subject to Section 4.02(c)),   as described

below. The Group I Senior   Percentage,   Group II Senior   Percentage or Group III

Senior   Percentage (as   applicable) of any Excess Special Hazard Losses,   Excess

Bankruptcy Losses,   Excess Fraud Losses or Extraordinary   Losses on the Mortgage

Loans   will be   allocated   (A) in the   case of a   Group I Loan,   to the   Group I

Certificates   in the case of the principal   portion of such loss and in the case

of the interest   portion of such loss, (B) in the case of a Group II Loan, among

the Group II Certificates in the case of the principal portion of such loss on a

pro rata basis,   and among the Group II Certificates in the case of the interest

portion of such loss,   on a pro rata   basis,   and (C) in the case of a Group III

Loan, to the Group III Certificates in the case of the principal portion of such

loss and in the case of the interest   portion of such loss; and the remainder of

such Realized Losses will be allocated among the Class M Certificates   and Class

B   Certificates,   on a pro rata   basis.   The   portion   allocated   to the Class M

Certificates   and   Class B   Certificates   will be   based   on each   Certificates'

interest in the related Loan Group.

        On any Distribution Date, Realized Losses will be allocated as set forth

herein after distributions of principal on the Certificates as set forth herein.

 

        As used herein,   an   allocation of a Realized Loss on a "pro rata basis"

among two or more specified Classes of Certificates means an allocation on a pro

rata   basis,   among the   various   Classes   so   specified,   to each such Class of

Certificates   on the   basis   of their   then   outstanding   Certificate   Principal

Balances prior to giving effect to distributions to be made on such Distribution

Date in the case of the   principal   portion of a   Realized   Loss or based on the

Accrued Certificate   Interest thereon payable on such Distribution Date (without

regard to any Compensating   Interest for such Distribution   Date) in the case of

an interest   portion of a Realized   Loss.   Except as   provided in the   following

sentence, any allocation of the principal portion of Realized Losses (other than

Debt Service   Reductions) to a Class of   Certificates   shall be made by reducing

the   Certificate   Principal   Balance   thereof by the amount so allocated,   which

allocation shall be deemed to have occurred on such Distribution Date;   provided

that no such reduction shall reduce the aggregate   Certificate Principal Balance

of the Certificates below the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage

Loans.   Any allocation of the principal   portion of Realized   Losses (other than

Debt Service   Reductions) to the Subordinate   Certificates then outstanding with

the Lowest Priority shall be made by operation of the definition of "Certificate

Principal   Balance"   and by   operation   of the   provisions   of Section   4.02(a).

Allocations of the interest portions of Realized Losses (other than any interest

rate   reduction   resulting   from a   Servicing   Modification)   shall   be   made in

proportion to the amount of Accrued Certificate Interest and by operation of the

definition of "Accrued Certificate   Interest" and by operation of the provisions

of Section   4.02(a).   Allocations   of the   interest   portion of a Realized   Loss

resulting   from an   interest   rate   reduction   in   connection   with a   Servicing

Modification   shall be made by operation of the   provisions of Section   4.02(a).

Allocations of the principal portion of Debt Service Reductions shall be made by

operation of the   provisions   of Section   4.02(a).   All Realized   Losses and all

other losses   allocated to a Class of   Certificates   hereunder will be allocated

among the   Certificates of such Class in proportion to the Percentage   Interests

evidenced thereby.

                      Certificates;   Termination   Upon   Purchase by   Residential

                      Funding or Liquidation of All Mortgage Loans.

 

(a)      Subject to Section 9.02, the respective obligations and responsibilities

        of the Company,   the Master   Servicer and the Trustee   created hereby in

        respect of the Certificates (other than the obligation of the Trustee to

        make    certain    payments    after    the   Final    Distribution    Date   to

        Certificateholders   and the   obligation   of the Company to send   certain

        notices as hereinafter   set forth) shall   terminate upon the last action

        required   to be taken by the   Trustee   on the   Final   Distribution   Date

        pursuant to this Article IX following the earlier of:

 

(i)      the later of the final payment or other liquidation (or any Advance with

        respect   thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan   remaining in the Trust Fund

        or the disposition of all property   acquired upon foreclosure or deed in

        lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, or

 

(ii)     the   purchase   by   Residential   Funding   of all   Mortgage   Loans and all

        property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust

        Fund at a price   equal to 100% of the unpaid   principal   balance of each

        Mortgage Loan or, if less than such unpaid principal   balance,   the fair

        market value of the related   underlying   property of such   Mortgage Loan

         with   respect to Mortgage   Loans as to which title has been   acquired if

        such fair market value is less than such unpaid principal balance on the

        day of repurchase plus unpaid accrued   interest   thereon at the Mortgage

        Rate (or Modified   Mortgage   Rate in the case of any   Modified   Mortgage

        Loan) from the Due Date to which interest was last paid by the Mortgagor

        to,   but not   including,   the   first   day of the   month   in   which   such

        repurchase   price is distributed,   provided,   however,   that in no event

        shall the trust   created   hereby   continue   beyond the   expiration of 21

        years from the death of the last survivor of the   descendants   of Joseph

        P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St.

        James,   living on the date hereof and provided further that the purchase

        price set forth above shall be increased as is necessary,   as determined

        by the Master Servicer, to avoid   disqualification of any portion of any

        REMIC formed under the Series   Supplement as a REMIC. The purchase price

        paid by   Residential   Funding   shall also   include any   amounts   owed by

        Residential Funding pursuant to Section 4 of the Assignment Agreement in

        respect of any liability, penalty or expense that resulted from a breach

        of the   representation   and warranty set forth in clause   (xxxi) of such

        Section that remain unpaid on the date of such purchase.

 

        The right of Residential Funding to purchase all the assets of the Trust

Fund pursuant to clause (ii) above is conditioned upon the Pool Stated Principal

Balance   as   of   the   Final    Distribution   Date,   prior   to   giving   effect   to

distributions to be made on such Distribution   Date, being less than ten percent

of the Cut-off Date Principal   Balance of the Mortgage   Loans.   If such right is

exercised   by   Residential   Funding,   the Master   Servicer   shall be entitled to

reimbursement for the full amount of any unreimbursed   Advances theretofore made

Section 3.15 and the Trustee and any Custodian shall, promptly following payment

of the   purchase   price,   release to   Residential   Funding   the   Mortgage   Files

pertaining to the Mortgage Loans being purchased.

 

        In addition to the foregoing, on any Distribution Date on which the Pool

Stated Principal Balance,   prior to giving effect to distributions to be made on

such   Distribution   Date, is less than ten percent of the Cut-off Date Principal

Balance of the Mortgage Loans,   Residential Funding shall have the right, at its

option, to purchase the Certificates in whole, but not in part, at a price equal

to the outstanding   Certificate   Principal Balance of such Certificates plus the

sum of Accrued   Certificate   Interest   thereon for the related   Interest Accrual

Period and any previously unpaid Accrued Certificate Interest.
