        This is the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,   dated as of April 28, 2005

(the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement" or "Agreement"),   among RESIDENTIAL ASSET

MORTGAGE PRODUCTS,   INC., as the company (together with its permitted successors

and assigns, the "Company"),   GMAC MORTGAGE   CORPORATION,   as servicer (together

with its permitted   successors   and assigns,   the   "Servicer"),   and WELLS FARGO

BANK,   N.A., an association   organized   under the laws of the United States,   as

Trustee (together with its permitted successors and assigns, the "Trustee").

 

                             PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

 

        The Company intends to sell   mortgage-backed   pass-through   certificates

(collectively,   the   "Certificates"),   to be issued hereunder in eleven 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   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." Component I of the

Class R 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 solely for purposes of satisfying Treasury regulation Section 1.860G

1(a)(4)(iii)) for each REMIC I Regular Interest shall be the Maturity Date. None

of the REMIC I Regular Interests will be certificated.

        In consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the Company,

the Servicer and the Trustee agree as follows:

 

ARTICLE I

 

                                   DEFINITIONS

 

Section 1.01.   Definitions.

 

        Whenever used in this Agreement, the following words and phrases, unless

the   context   otherwise   requires,   shall have the   meanings   specified   in this

Article.

 

        Accrued Certificate Interest: With respect to each Distribution Date and

any Class of Certificates,   interest accrued during the related Interest Accrual

Period at the related   Pass-Through   Rate on the Certificate   Principal   Balance

thereof   immediately   prior   to   such   Distribution   Date.   Accrued   Certificate

Interest   on each Class of   Certificates   will be   calculated   on the basis of a

360-day year, consisting of twelve 30-day months.

 

        With respect to each Distribution Date, Accrued Certificate   Interest on

any Class of Certificates will be reduced by the amount of:

 

(i)             Prepayment   Interest   Shortfalls   on the   Mortgage   Loans   in the

               related Loan Group prepaid   during the prior   calendar month and,

               in the case of a Principal Prepayment in Full, during the related

               Prepayment   Period (to the extent not offset by the Servicer with

               a payment of Compensating Interest),

 

(ii)            the interest   portion   (adjusted to the Net Mortgage Rate (or the

               Modified   Net   Mortgage   Rate in the case of a Modified   Mortgage

               Loan)) of Realized   Losses on the   Mortgage   Loans in the related

                Loan Group (including Excess Special Hazard Losses,   Excess Fraud

               Losses,   Excess Bankruptcy   Losses and Extraordinary   Losses) not

               allocated   solely to one or more specific Classes of Certificates

               pursuant to Section 4.05,

 

(iii)           the interest   portion of Advances   that were made with respect to

               delinquencies   related to Mortgage   Loans or REO   Property in the

               related Loan Group that were   ultimately   determined to be Excess

               Special Hazard   Losses,   Excess Fraud Losses,   Excess   Bankruptcy

               Losses or Extraordinary Losses, and

 

(iv)            any   other   interest   shortfalls   on the   Mortgage   Loans   in the

               related Loan Group not covered by the   subordination   provided by

               the   Class M   Certificates   and Class B   Certificates,   including

               interest that is not collectible   from the Mortgagor   pursuant to

               the Relief Act,

 

with the Senior   Percentage of all such   reductions with respect to the Mortgage

Loans in a Loan Group being allocated   among the related Senior   Certificates in

proportion   to the   amounts of Accrued   Certificate   Interest   payable   from the

related Loan Group on such   Distribution   Date absent such reductions,   with the

remainder   of   such   reductions   allocated   among   the   holders   of the   Class M

Certificates and Class B Certificates on the basis of their   respective   amounts

of   Accrued    Certificate    Interest   that   would   have   been   payable   on   such

Distribution   Date absent such   reductions.   In addition to that   portion of the

reductions   described in the preceding   sentence that are allocated to any Class

of   Class   B   Certificates   or   any   Class   of   Class   M   Certificates,   Accrued

Certificate   Interest   on such   Class of Class B   Certificates   or such Class of

Class M Certificates   will be reduced by the interest   portion   (adjusted to the

Net Mortgage Rate) of Realized Losses that are allocated solely to such Class of

Class B Certificates   or such Class of Class M Certificates   pursuant to Section

4.05.

 

                                       3

<PAGE>

 

        Adjustment Date: With respect to each Mortgage Loan, each date set forth

in the related Mortgage Note on which an adjustment to the interest rate on such

Mortgage Loan becomes effective.

 

        Advance:   As to any Mortgage   Loan,   any advance   made by the   Servicer,

pursuant to Section 4.04.

 

        Affiliate:   With respect to any Person,   any other   Person   controlling,

controlled by or under common   control with such first Person.   For the purposes

of this   definition,   "control"   means the power to direct   the   management   and

policies of such Person,   directly or indirectly,   whether through the ownership

of voting securities,   by contract or otherwise; and the terms "controlling" and

"controlled" have meanings correlative to the foregoing.

 

        Aggregate Subordinate Percentage: With respect to any Distribution Date,

the percent   equivalent   of a fraction,   the numerator of which is the aggregate

Certificate Principal Balance of the Subordinate   Certificates immediately prior

to such   Distribution   Date and the   denominator   of   which   is the Pool   Stated

Principal Balance as of such Distribution Date.

 

        Amount Held for Future   Distribution:   With respect to any   Distribution

Date and with   respect to each Loan Group,   the total of the amounts held in the

Custodial Account at the close of business on the related   Determination Date on

account of (i) Liquidation Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries,   Insurance Proceeds,

Curtailments,   Mortgage Loan   purchases   made pursuant to Section 2.02,   2.04 or

4.07 and Mortgage Loan   substitutions   made pursuant to Section 2.04 received or

made in the   month   of such   Distribution   Date   (other   than   such   Liquidation

Proceeds,   Insurance Proceeds,   Subsequent   Recoveries and purchases of Mortgage

Loans that the Servicer has deemed to have been received in the preceding   month

in accordance with Section 3.07(b)),   and Principal Prepayments in Full received

or made after the related   Prepayment   Period, and (ii) payments which represent

early   receipt of scheduled   payments of principal and interest due on a date or

dates subsequent to the related Due Date.

 

        Appraised   Value:   As to any Mortgaged   Property,   the lesser of (i) the

appraised value of such Mortgaged   Property based upon the appraisal made at the

time of the   origination of the related   Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the sales price

of the Mortgaged   Property at such time of origination,   except in the case of a

Mortgaged   Property   securing a refinanced or modified Mortgage Loan as to which

it is   either   the   appraised   value   determined   above or the   appraised   value

determined in an appraisal at the time of   refinancing or   modification,   as the

case may be, provided that if permitted by the applicable underwriting standards
