                  ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION  AGREEMENT,  dated as of April 27, 2007,  between  Residential  Funding
Company,  LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("RFC") and Residential  Funding Mortgage  Securities II, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (the "Company").


                                                     Recitals

                  A.       RFC has entered into seller  contracts  ("Seller  Contracts")  with certain  sellers and
servicers.

                  B.       The  Company  wishes  to  purchase  from RFC  certain  Mortgage  Loans  (as  hereinafter
defined) originated pursuant to the Seller Contracts with respect thereto.

                  C.       The  Company,  RFC,  as master  servicer,  and LaSalle  Bank  National  Association,  as
trustee  (the  "Trustee"),  are  entering  into a Pooling and  Servicing  Agreement  dated as of April 1, 2007 (the
"Pooling and Servicing  Agreement"),  pursuant to which the Company proposes to issue Home Equity Loan Pass-Through
Certificates,  Series  2007-HSA2 (the  "Certificates")  consisting of ten classes  designated as Class A-1V,  Class
A-1F,  Class A-2, Class A-3,  Class A-4,  Class A-5,  Class A-6,  Class SB, Class R-I and Class R-II,  representing
beneficial  ownership  interests in a trust fund  consisting  primarily of a pool of closed-end,  primarily  second
lien fixed rate  mortgage  loans  identified  on Exhibit D to the Pooling and Servicing  Agreement  (the  "Mortgage
Loans").

                  D.       In connection  with the purchase of the Mortgage  Loans,  the Company will assign to RFC
the Class SB, Class R-I and Class R-II Certificates (the "Retained Certificates").

                  E.       In  connection  with  the  purchase  of the  Mortgage  Loans  and  the  issuance  of the
Certificates, RFC wishes to make certain representations and warranties to the Company.

                  F.       The Company and RFC intend that the  conveyance  by RFC to the Company of all its right,
title and interest in and to the Mortgage  Loans pursuant to this  Agreement  shall  constitute a purchase and sale
and not a loan.

                  NOW THEREFORE,  in  consideration  of the recitals and the mutual  promises herein and other good
and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:

1.       All  capitalized  terms used but not  defined  herein  shall  have the  meanings  assigned  thereto in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

2.       Concurrently  with the execution and delivery  hereof,  RFC hereby assigns to the Company without recourse
all of its right,  title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans,  including all interest and principal  received
on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans on or after the Cut-off Date. In  consideration  of such  assignment,  RFC
will receive from the Company,  in immediately  available  funds, an amount equal to  $1,241,541,668.49,  including
accrued  interest,  and the  Retained  Certificates.  In  connection  with  such  assignment  and at the  Company's
direction,  RFC has in respect of each Mortgage  Loan endorsed the related  Mortgage Note (other than any Destroyed
Mortgage  Note,  as defined in the  following  sentence) to the order of the Trustee and delivered an assignment of
mortgage in  recordable  form to the Trustee or its agent.  A "Destroyed  Mortgage  Note" means a Mortgage Note the
original of which was permanently lost or destroyed.

                  The  Company  and RFC intend that the  conveyance  by RFC to the Company of all its right,  title
and interest in and to the Mortgage  Loans  pursuant to this Section 2 shall be, and be construed as, a sale of the
Mortgage Loans by RFC to the Company.  It is,  further,  not intended that such conveyance be deemed to be a pledge
of the Mortgage  Loans by RFC to the Company to secure a debt or other  obligation  of RFC.  Nonetheless,  (a) this
Agreement  is intended to be and hereby is deemed to be a security  agreement  within the meaning of Articles 8 and
9 of the Minnesota Uniform  Commercial Code and the Uniform  Commercial Code of any other applicable  jurisdiction;
(b) the  conveyance  provided for in this Section shall be deemed to be a grant by RFC to the Company of a security
interest in all of RFC's right  (including  the power to convey title  thereto),  title and  interest,  whether now
owned or hereafter acquired,  in and to (A) the Mortgage Loans,  including the related Mortgage Note, the Mortgage,
any related  insurance  policies and all other  documents in the related  Mortgage  File,  (B) all amounts  payable
pursuant to the  Mortgage  Loans in  accordance  with the terms  thereof,  and (C) any and all general  intangibles
consisting of, arising from or relating to any of the foregoing,  and all proceeds of the conversion,  voluntary or
involuntary,  of  the  foregoing  into  cash,  instruments,   securities  or  other  property,  including,  without
limitation,  all amounts from time to time held or invested in the  Certificate  Account or the Custodial  Account,
whether in the form of cash,  instruments,  securities or other  property;  (c) the possession by the Trustee,  the
Custodian  or any other  agent of the Trustee of  Mortgage  Notes or such other  items of  property  as  constitute
instruments,  money,  payment  intangibles,  negotiable  documents,  goods,  deposit  accounts,  letters of credit,
advices  of  credit,  investment  property,  certificated  securities  or  chattel  paper  shall  be  deemed  to be
"possession by the secured party",  or possession by a purchaser or a person  designated by such secured party, for
purposes of perfecting the security  interest  pursuant to the Minnesota  Uniform  Commercial  Code and the Uniform
Commercial Code of any other applicable  jurisdiction  (including,  without  limitation,  Sections 8-106, 9-313 and
9-106  thereof);  and (d)  notifications  to persons  holding  such  property,  and  acknowledgments,  receipts  or
confirmations from persons holding such property,  shall be deemed  notifications to, or acknowledgments,  receipts
or confirmations from, financial  intermediaries,  bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Trustee for the purpose
of  perfecting  such  security  interest  under  applicable  law.  RFC shall,  to the extent  consistent  with this
Agreement,  take such  reasonable  actions as may be  necessary to ensure that,  if this  Agreement  were deemed to
create a security  interest in the Mortgage Loans and the other property  described above,  such security  interest
would be deemed to be a perfected  security  interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained
as such  throughout  the term of this  Agreement.  Without  limiting the  generality  of the  foregoing,  RFC shall
prepare and deliver to the Company not less than 15 days prior to any filing date,  and the Company  shall file, or
shall cause to be filed,  at the expense of RFC,  all  filings  necessary  to  maintain  the  effectiveness  of any
original  filings  necessary  under the Uniform  Commercial  Code as in effect in any  jurisdiction  to perfect the
Company's  security  interest in or lien on the Mortgage  Loans,  including  without  limitation  (x)  continuation
statements,  and (y) such other  statements  as may be  occasioned by (1) any change of name of RFC or the Company,
(2) any change of location of the place of business or the chief  executive  office of RFC, or (3) any  transfer of
any interest of RFC in any Mortgage Loan.

                  3.       Concurrently  with the execution and delivery hereof,  the Company hereby assigns to RFC
without  recourse  all of its  right,  title  and  interest  in and to the  Residual  Certificates  as  part of the
consideration payable to RFC by the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

substitute  a Mortgage  Loan  pursuant  to this  Section 4 was the  representation  set forth in clause (h) of this
Section 4, then RFC shall pay to the Trust Fund,  concurrently  with and in addition  to the  remedies  provided in

which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially  adversely affect the value,  use,  enjoyment or
marketability  of the Mortgaged  Property.  In addition,  with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Company
delivers to the Trustee or the Custodian an affidavit  certifying that the original  Mortgage Note has been lost or
destroyed,  if such  Mortgage  Loan  subsequently  is in default  and the  enforcement  thereof  or of the  related
Mortgage is materially  adversely  affected by the absence of the original  Mortgage Note, a Repurchase Event shall

agreement  signed by RFC and the  Company,  with the consent of the Credit  Enhancer  (which  consent  shall not be
unreasonably withheld).

EXHIBIT A APPENDIX E OF THE STANDARD & POOR'S GLOSSARY FOR FILE FORMAT FOR LEVELS(R)VERSION 5.7 REVISED REVISED October 20, 2006 APPENDIX E - Standard & Poor's Predatory Lending Categories Standard & Poor's has categorized loans governed by anti-predatory lending laws in the Jurisdictions listed below into three categories based upon a combination of factors that include (a) the risk exposure associated with the assignee liability and (b) the tests and thresholds set forth in those laws. Note that certain loans classified by the relevant statute as Covered are included in Standard & Poor's High Cost Loan Category because they included thresholds and tests that are typical of what is generally considered High Cost by the industry.
