NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1.

Servicing.  The Servicer agrees, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, to perform and observe the duties, responsibilities and obligations that are to be performed and observed under the provisions of the Servicing Agreement, except as otherwise provided herein, and that the provisions of the Servicing Agreement, as modified herein, are and shall be a part of this Assignment Agreement to the same extent as if set forth herein in full.

1.1.

Assignment and Assumption.  (a) The Assignor hereby assigns to the Assignee, as of the date hereof, all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans, the GSMC Assignment Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, to the extent relating to the Mortgage Loans (other than the rights of the Assignor to indemnification thereunder), and the Assignee hereby assumes all of the Assignor’s obligations under the Servicing Agreement, to the extent relating to the Mortgage Loans from and after April 28, 2006, and the Servicer hereby acknowledges such assignment and assumption and hereby agrees to the release of the Assignor from any obligations under the Servicing Agreement from and after April 28, 2006, to the extent relating to the Mortgage Loans.

(b)

The Assignor represents and warrants to the Assignee that the Assignor has not taken any action which would serve to impair or encumber the Assignor’s ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans since the date of the Servicing Agreement.

(c)

The Servicer and the Assignor shall have the right to amend, modify or terminate the Servicing Agreement without the joinder of the Assignee with respect to mortgage loans not conveyed to the Assignee hereunder; provided, however, that such amendment, modification or termination shall not affect or be binding on the Assignee.

2.

3.

Recognition of Assignee.  

(a)

From and after the date hereof, the Servicer shall note the transfer of the Mortgage Loans to the Assignee in its books and records, shall recognize the Assignee as the owner of the Mortgage Loans and, notwithstanding anything herein or in the Servicing Agreement to the contrary, shall service all of the Mortgage Loans for the benefit of the Assignee pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference, whether or not such Mortgage Loans have been serviced pursuant to such agreement prior to the date hereof.  It is the intention of the Assignor, the Servicer and the Assignee that the Servicing Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Servicer and the Assignee and their successors and assigns.

(b)

The Servicer further acknowledges that, from and after the date hereof, it (and any of its successors under the Servicing Agreement) will be subject to the supervision of the Master Servicer (except that the Master Servicer shall not be responsible for supervising the servicing of defaulted Mortgage Loans and REO Properties) and that the Master Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee as the owner of the Mortgage Loans, shall have the same rights as were assigned by GSMC, in its capacity as the original “Purchaser” under the Servicing Agreement, to the Assignor under the GSMC Assignment Agreement, and further assigned hereunder by the Assignor to the Trustee, on behalf of the trust formed pursuant to the Trust Agreement.  Such rights that the Master Servicer may enforce on behalf of the Trustee will include, without limitation, the right to terminate the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement upon the occurrence of an event of default thereunder, the right to receive all remittances required to be made by the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, the right to receive all monthly reports and other data required to be delivered by the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement and the right to exercise certain rights of consent and approval relating to actions taken by the Servicer.

(c)

All reports and other data required to be delivered by the Servicer to the “Purchaser” under the Servicing Agreement shall be delivered to the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as designated by the Trustee, at the address set forth in Section 9 hereof.  All remittances required to be made to the Trustee, as the successor in interest to the Assignor under the Servicing Agreement, shall be made instead to the Master Servicer by wire transfer to the following account:

5.

Representations and Warranties of the Assignor.  The Assignor hereby represents and warrants to the Assignee as follows:

(a)

Organization.  The Assignor has been duly organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware with full power and authority (corporate and other) to enter into and perform its obligations under the Servicing Agreement and this Assignment Agreement.

(b)

Enforceability.  This Assignment Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Assignor, and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by each of the other parties hereto, constitutes a legal, valid, and binding agreement of the Assignor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law.

(c)

No Consent.  The execution, delivery and performance by the Assignor of this Assignment Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby do not require the consent or approval of, the giving of notice to, the registration with, or the taking of any other action in respect of, any state, federal or other governmental authority or agency, except such as has been obtained, given, effected or taken prior to the date hereof.

(d)

Authorization; No Breach.  The execution and delivery of this Assignment Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Assignor; neither the execution and delivery by the Assignor of this Assignment Agreement, nor the consummation by the Assignor of the transactions herein contemplated, nor compliance by the Assignor with the provisions hereof, will conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the provisions of the governing documents of the Assignor or any law, governmental rule or regulation or any material judgment, decree or order binding on the Assignor or any of its properties, or any of the provisions of any material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, contract or other instrument to which the Assignor is a party or by which it is bound.

(f)

Prior Assignments; Pledges.  Except for the sale to the Assignee, the Assignor has not assigned or pledged any Mortgage Note or the related Mortgage or any interest or participation therein.

(g)

Releases.  The Assignor has not satisfied, canceled, or subordinated in whole or in part, or rescinded any Mortgage, and the Assignor has not released the related Mortgaged Property from the lien of any Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has the Assignor executed an instrument that would effect any such release, cancellation, subordination, or rescission.  The Assignor has not released any Mortgagor, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement or other agreement approved by the related federal insurer, to the extent such approval was required.

(h)

Compliance with Applicable Laws.  Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury, truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection, equal credit opportunity, predatory and abusive lending or disclosure laws applicable to the Mortgage Loans have been complied with.  All inspections, licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with respect to all occupied portions of the Mortgaged Properties and, with respect to the use and occupancy of the same, including but not limited to certificates of occupancy and fire underwriting certificates, have been made or obtained from the appropriate authorities.

(i)

HOEPA.  No Mortgage Loan is classified as a “high cost” mortgage loan under Section 32 of the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994, as amended, and no Mortgage Loan is considered a “high cost” mortgage loan under any applicable federal, state or local predatory or abusive lending law (or a similarly classified loan using different terminology under a law imposing heightened regulatory scrutiny or additional legal liability for residential mortgage loans having high interest rates, points and/or fees).  No Transferred Mortgage Loan is a “High Cost Loan” or “Covered Loan,” as applicable, as such terms are defined in the then current Standard & Poor’s LEVELSâ Glossary and no Mortgage Loan originated on or after October 1, 2002 through March 6, 2003 is governed by the Georgia Fair Lending Act.

(j)

Bring Down.  With respect to the Servicing Agreement, nothing has occurred or failed to occur from and after the closing date set forth in the Servicing Agreement to April 28, 2006, that would cause any of the representations and warranties relating to the applicable Mortgage Loans set forth in Section 3.2 of the Servicing Agreement to be incorrect in any material respects as of the date hereof as if made on the date hereof.

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 5 shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Loan Documents to the WFB Custodian and shall inure to the benefit of the Assignee and its assigns notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement or assignment.  Upon the discovery by the Assignor or the Assignee and its assigns of a breach of the foregoing representations and warranties, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties to this Assignment Agreement, and in no event later than two (2) Business Days from the date of such discovery.  It is understood and agreed that the obligations of the Assignor set forth in Section 6 to repurchase a Mortgage Loan constitute the sole remedies available to the Assignee and its assigns on their behalf respecting a breach of the representations and warranties contained in this Section 5.  It is further understood and agreed that the Assignor shall be deemed not to have made the representations and warranties in this Section 5(k) with respect to, and to the extent of, representations and warranties made, as to the matters covered in this Section 5(k), by the Servicer in the Servicing Agreement (or any officer’s certificate delivered pursuant thereto).

It is understood and agreed that the Assignor has made no representations or warranties to the Assignee other than those contained in this Section 5, and no other affiliate of the Assignor has made any representations or warranties of any kind to the Assignee.

6.

Repurchase of Mortgage Loans.  Upon discovery or notice of any breach by the Assignor of any representation, warranty or covenant under this Assignment Agreement that materially and adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan or the interest of the Assignee therein (it being understood that any such defect or breach shall be deemed to have materially and adversely affected the value of the related Mortgage Loan or the interest of the Assignee therein if the Assignee incurs a loss as a result of such defect or breach), the Assignee promptly shall request that the Assignor cure such breach and, if the Assignor does not cure such breach in all material respects within 60 days from the date on which it is notified of the breach, the Assignee may enforce the Assignor’s obligation hereunder to purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Assignee at the Purchase Price (as defined in the Trust Agreement).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if such breach is a Qualification Defect, such cure or repurchase must take place within 75 days of discovery of such Qualification Defect.

In the event of a repurchase of any Mortgage Loan by the Assignor, the Trustee shall promptly deliver to the Assignor or its designee the related Mortgage File and shall assign to the Assignor all of the Assignee’s rights under the Servicing Agreement, but only insofar as the Servicing Agreement relates to such Mortgage Loan.

Except as specifically set forth herein, the Assignee shall have no responsibility to enforce any provision of this Assignment Agreement, to oversee compliance hereof, or to take notice of any breach or default thereof.

7.

Amendment of the Servicing Agreement.  In connection with the transfer of the Mortgage Loans hereunder, the Servicer agrees that, from and after the date hereof, each Mortgage Loan transferred hereunder will be subject to, and serviced under, the Servicing Agreement, provided that, solely with respect to the Mortgage Loans transferred hereunder, the following modifications shall be made:

(i)

Article I of the Servicing Agreement shall be modified by deleting the following definitions in their entirety and replacing them as set forth herein:

“Remittance Advice Date: The 10^th calendar day of each month or, if such 10^th day is not a Business Day, the first Business Day immediately succeeding such date.”

“Servicing Fee Rate: With respect to any Mortgage Loan, the rate per annum set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule.”

(ii)

Sections 4.5(3) and (7) of the Servicing Agreement are each hereby amended by adding “Monthly Advances,” before the words “Servicing Advances”.

(iii)

Section 5.1 of the Servicing Agreement shall be amended to replace the language in the second and third sentences of the third paragraph thereof with the following:  “Such interest shall be paid by the Company to the Purchaser on the date such late payment is made and shall cover the period commencing with the date on which such payment was due and ending with the date on which such payment is made, both inclusive.”

(iv)

Section 5.3 of the Servicing Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the penultimate sentence of such section in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“The Company’s obligation to make such Monthly Advances as to any Mortgage Loan will continue through the last Monthly Payment due prior to the payment in full of the Mortgage Loan, or through the last Remittance Date prior to the Remittance Date for the distribution of all Liquidation Proceeds and other payments or recoveries (including Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds) with respect to the Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such obligation shall cease if the Company determines, in its sole reasonable opinion, that advances with respect to such Mortgage Loan are non-recoverable by the Company from Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds, or otherwise with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan.”

(v)

Section 6.2 of the Servicing Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the language in the first sentence of the second paragraph thereof with the following: “"If the Company satisfies or releases the lien of the Mortgage without first having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage (other than as a result of a modification of the Mortgage pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or a liquidation of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) or should the Company otherwise prejudice any rights the Purchaser may have under the mortgage instruments, upon written demand of the Purchaser, the Company shall repurchase the related Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price by deposit thereof in the Custodial Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such demand by the Purchaser.

(vi)

Section 6.4(i) of the Servicing Agreement shall be amended by deleting the text thereof in its entirety and replacing it with “[Reserved]”.

(vii)

Section 6.4(ii) of the Servicing Agreement shall be amended by replacing the words “Purchaser and any Depositor” and “Purchaser and such Depositor” with “Master Servicer”.

(viii)

Section 6.5 of the Servicing Agreement shall be amended by deleting the text thereof in its entirety and replacing it with “[Reserved]”

(ix)

Section 6.6 of the Servicing Agreement shall be amended by replacing the words “Purchaser and any Depositor” and “Purchaser and such Depositor” with “Master Servicer”.

(x)

Section 10.1 of the Servicing Agreement shall be amended to include the following:

“(x)

failure by the Servicer to duly perform, within the required time period, its obligations under Sections 4.28 or 9.1(c), which failure continues unremedied for a period of fifteen days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by any party to this Agreement or by any master servicer responsible for master servicing the Mortgage Loans pursuant to a securitization of such Mortgage Loans.”

(xi)

Section 11.3 of the Servicing Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall deliver to the Purchaser, any Master Servicer and any Depositor a report (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser, such Master Servicer and such Depositor) regarding the Company's assessment of compliance with the Servicing Criteria during the immediately preceding calendar year, as required under Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB. Such report shall be addressed to the Purchaser, such Master Servicer and such Depositor and signed by an authorized officer of the Company, and shall address each of the "Applicable Servicing Criteria" specified on Exhibit 9 hereto delivered to the Purchaser at the time of any Securitization Transaction.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Servicing Agreement is not hereby amended with respect to any other mortgage loans serviced thereunder and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms with respect to such other mortgage loans.

For purposes of this Section 7, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Servicing Agreement.

8.

Continuing Effect.  Except as contemplated hereby, the Servicing Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its respective terms.

9.
