                                    Although we have no reason to believe the
                           information concerning the underlying securities or
                           the underlying securities issuer contained in the

                           is not reliable, neither the depositor nor the
                           trustee participated in the preparation of such
                           documents, or made any due diligence inquiry with
                           respect to the information provided therein. No
                           investigation with respect to the underlying
                           securities issuer (including, without limitation, no
                           investigation as to its financial condition or
                           creditworthiness) or of the underlying securities has
                           been made. You should obtain and evaluate the same
                           information concerning the underlying securities
                           issuer as you would obtain and evaluate if your
                           investment were directly in the underlying securities
                           or in other securities issued by the underlying
                           securities issuer. There can be no assurance that
                           events affecting the underlying securities or the
                           underlying securities issuer have not occurred or
                           have not yet been publicly disclosed which would
                           affect the accuracy or completeness of the publicly

included in these reports; and

                  4. I am responsible for reviewing the activities performed by
the depositor and the trustee under the pooling and servicing, or similar,

under that agreement, and except as disclosed in the reports, the depositor and
trustee have each fulfilled its obligations under that agreement.
