SARBANES OXLEY CERTIFICATION



Re: Encore Credit Receivables Trust 2005-4,
Asset Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-4

         I, Troy Gotschall, certify that:

1.     I have reviewed this annual report on Form 10-K, and all reports on
       Form 8-K containing distribution and servicing reports filed in
       respect of periods included in the year covered by this annual report,
       of Encore Credit Receivables Trust 2005-4, Asset Backed Pass-Through
       Certificates, Series 2005-4 (the "Trust");

2.     Based on my knowledge, the information in these reports, taken as a
       whole, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
       omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made,
       in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made,
       not misleading as of the last day of the period covered by this annual
       report;

3.     Based on my knowledge, the distribution information required to be
       prepared by the Securities Administrator based upon the servicing
       information required to be provided by the Servicer under the Pooling
       and Servicing Agreement is included in these reports;

4.     Based on my knowledge and upon the annual compliance statements
       included in the report and required to be delivered to the Securities
       Administrator in accordance with the terms of the Pooling and
       Servicing Agreement and based upon the review required under the
       Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and except as disclosed in the
       report, the Servicer has fulfilled its obligations under the Pooling
       and Servicing Agreement; and

5.     The reports disclose all significant deficiencies relating to the
       Servicer's compliance with the minimum servicing standards based, in
       each case, upon the report provided by an independent public
       accountant, after conducting a review in compliance with the
       Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers or similar
       standard as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that is
       included in these reports.

         In giving the certifications above, I have reasonably relied on the
information provided to me by the following unaffiliated parties: the Sub-
servicer and the Securities Administrator.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to
them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated October 1, 2005 (the
"Pooling and Servicing Agreement"), among Asset Backed Securities
corporation, as depositor (the "Depositor"), Encore Credit Corp., as seller
