LUMINENT MORTGAGE TRUST 2006-6

This Reconstituted Servicing Agreement, dated as of September 28, 2006
(this "AGREEMENT"), is by and among RESIDENTIAL FUNDING CORPORATION ("RFC"),
LARES ASSET SECURITIZATION, INC. (the "DEPOSITOR"), MAIA MORTGAGE FINANCE
STATUTORY TRUST (the "SELLER") and WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A., as master servicer
and securities administrator (in each such capacity, the "MASTER SERVICER" and
the "SECURITIES ADMINISTRATOR", respectively), and is acknowledged by HSBC BANK
USA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as trustee (the "TRUSTEE").

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Seller has conveyed the mortgage loans listed on Exhibit One
attached hereto (the "SERVICED LOANS") to the Depositor, and the Depositor has
conveyed the Serviced Loans to the Trustee pursuant to a certain pooling
agreement dated as of September 1, 2006 (the "POOLING AGREEMENT"), by and among
the Seller, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and
the Trustee;

WHEREAS, the Serviced Loans were acquired from RFC by the Seller pursuant
to (i) a certain standard terms and provisions of sale and servicing agreement,
dated as of March 30, 2006 (the "STANDARD TERMS") by and among RFC, Luminent
Mortgage Capital, Inc., Mercury Mortgage Finance Statutory Trust and the Seller
and (ii) certain reference agreements dated as of July 28, 2006 and August 30,
2006, (the reference agreements, together with the Standard Terms, the
"SERVICING AGREEMENT") by and between RFC and the Seller (a copy of such
Servicing Agreement is attached hereto on Exhibit Four);

WHEREAS, the Serviced Loans are currently being serviced by RFC for the
Seller pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, and the Depositor desires that RFC
continue to service the Serviced Loans and RFC has agreed to do so, subject to
the rights of the Master Servicer to terminate the rights and obligations of RFC
hereunder as set forth herein and to the other conditions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, the Seller and RFC agree that (a) the transfer of the Serviced
Loans from Seller to the Depositor and from the Depositor to the Trustee, to be
accomplished by Pooling Agreement, constitutes a Securitization Transaction and
(b) this Agreement shall constitute a "RECONSTITUTION AGREEMENT" (as such term
is defined in the Servicing Agreement) in connection with such Securitization
Transaction that shall govern the Serviced Loans for so long as such Serviced
Loans remain subject to the provisions of the Pooling Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Master Servicer and any successor master servicer shall be
obligated, among other things, to supervise the servicing of the Serviced Loans
on behalf of the Trustee and the Trust Fund, and shall have the right to
terminate the rights and

obligations of RFC upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default
under this Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein
the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

DEFINITIONS

Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Agreement (including Exhibit
Two attached hereto) or in the Servicing Agreement shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in the Pooling Agreement.

ARTICLE II

SERVICING

RFC agrees, with respect to the servicing of the Serviced Loans, to perform
and observe the duties, responsibilities and obligations that are to be
performed and observed by RFC under the provisions of the Servicing Agreement,

provisions of the Servicing Agreement, as so modified, are and shall be a part
of this Agreement to the same extent as if set forth herein in full.

ARTICLE V

RECOGNITION OF THE MASTER SERVICER AND THE TRUST FUND

From and after the date hereof, RFC, and any successor servicer hereunder,
shall be subject to the supervision of the Master Servicer, which Master
Servicer shall be obligated to enforce RFC's obligation to service the Serviced
Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. RFC shall recognize
the Luminent Mortgage Trust 2006-6 Trust Fund (the "TRUST FUND") as the owner of
the Serviced Loans, and RFC will service the Serviced Loans for the Trust Fund
as if the Trust Fund and RFC had entered into a separate servicing agreement for
the servicing of the Serviced Loans in the form of the Servicing Agreement.
Pursuant to the Pooling Agreement, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall
have the same rights (but not the obligations, except to the extent expressly
set forth in the Pooling Agreement) as the Owner under the Servicing Agreement
to enforce the obligations of RFC, including, without limitation, the
enforcement of (i) the document delivery requirements set forth in Section 2.01
of the Servicing Agreement and (ii) remedies with respect to representations and
warranties made by RFC in the Servicing Agreement, and shall be entitled to
enforce all of the obligations of RFC thereunder insofar as they relate to the
Serviced Loans. RFC shall look solely to the Trust Fund for performance of any
obligations of the Owner under the Servicing Agreement and the Trust Fund hereby
assumes such obligations. All references to the Owner under the Servicing
Agreement insofar as they relate to the Serviced Loans, shall be deemed to refer
to the Trust Fund. RFC shall not amend or agree to amend, modify, waive, or
otherwise alter any of the terms or provisions of the Servicing Agreement which
amendment, modification, waiver or other alteration would in any way (i)
materially affect the Serviced Loans or RFC's performance under the Servicing
Agreement with respect to the Serviced Loans without the prior written consent
of the Trustee and the Master Servicer or (ii) materially and adversely affect
the interests of the Certificateholders in the Serviced Loans.

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights and
obligations of RFC under this Agreement, as provided in Section 6.01 (Events of
Default of the Company) of the Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master Servicer be required to
assume any of the obligations of the Owner under the Servicing Agreement; and in
entering into this Agreement, in connection with the performance by the Master
Servicer of any duties it may have hereunder, and in the exercise by the Master
Servicer of its rights the parties and other signatories hereto, except RFC,
agree that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to all of the rights,
protections and limitations of liability, immunities and indemnities afforded to
the Master Servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Without
limitation of the foregoing, any provision of the Servicing Agreement requiring
the Seller or the Trust Fund, as "Owner" under the Servicing Agreement, to
reimburse RFC for any costs or expenses shall be satisfied by RFC's
reimbursement of such costs or expenses from the Custodial Account.

A copy of all assessments, attestations, reports and certifications
required to be delivered by RFC under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement
shall be delivered

{PAGE}

to the Master Servicer by the date(s) specified herein or therein, and where
such documents are required to be addressed to any party, such addressees shall
include the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to rely on
such documents.

ARTICLE VI

WARRANTIES

The Seller and RFC mutually warrant and represent that, with respect to the

Serviced Loans, except as set forth herein, and no notice of termination has
been given thereunder.

ARTICLE VII

REPRESENTATIONS

RFC hereby represents and warrants, for the benefit of the Depositor, the
Trustee and the Trust Fund, that (i) the representations and warranties set
forth on Exhibit Five to this Agreement and in Section 8.02 of the Servicing

DATE"), as if such representations and warranties were made on such date and
(ii) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.04 of the
Servicing Agreement are true and correct as of the related Closing Date (as
defined in the Servicing Agreement) as if such representations and warranties
were made on such date.

RFC hereby acknowledges and agrees that the remedies available to the Trust
Fund (including the Trustee acting on the Trust Fund's behalf) in connection
with any breach of the representations and warranties made by RFC set forth
above that materially and adversely affects the value of that Mortgage Loan or
the interests of the Owner in such Mortgage Loan shall be as set forth in
Subsection 2.04 of the Servicing Agreement as if they were set forth herein
(including without limitation the repurchase and indemnity obligations set forth
