Exhibit 34.1.1

[Letterhead of KPMG, LLP]

 

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

The Board of Directors

CitiMortgage, Inc.:

 

We have examined management’s assessment, included in the accompanying Management’s Assessment of Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria, that CitiMortgage, Inc. (the Servicer) complied with the servicing criteria set forth in paragraph (d) of Item 1122 of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation AB in connection with the servicing of 1) first lien residential mortgage loans (other than (a) Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, Ginnie Mae residential mortgage loan securitizations, (b) special bond programs and (c) loans held for its own portfolio) and 2) student loans issued subsequent to January 1, 2006 (for which the Servicer only performs criteria 1122(d)(3)(i)(A), 1122(d)(3)(i)(B) and 1122(d)(3)(ii)) for which the Servicer performs a particular servicing function pursuant to a servicing agreement with a third party utilizing the Citilink system (the Platform), except for servicingcriteria 1122(d)(1)(iii) and 1122(d)(2)(iv), which the Servicer has determined are not applicable to the activities it performs with respect to the Platform, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006. Management is responsible for the Servicer’s compliance with those servicing criteria. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assessment about the Servicer’s compliance based on our examination.

 

Our examination was conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)****and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Servicer’s compliance with the servicing criteria specified above and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.  Our examination included testing of less than all of the individual asset-backed transactions and securities that comprise the Platform, testing of less than all of the servicing activities related to the Platform, and determining whether the Servicer processed those selected transactions and performed those selected activities in compliance with the servicing criteria.  Furthermore, our procedures were limited to the selected transactions and servicing activities performed by the Servicer during the periodcovered by this report.  Our procedures were not designed to determine whether errors may have occurred either prior to or subsequent to our tests that may have affected the balances or amounts calculated or reported by the Servicer during the period covered by this report for the selected transactions or any other transactions. We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.  Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Servicer’s compliance with the servicing criteria.

 

As described in the accompanying Management Assessment of Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria, for certain servicing criteria outlined in Exhibit A, the Servicer has engaged various vendors to perform the activities required by these servicing criteria. The Servicer has determined that these vendors are not considered a “servicer” as defined in Item 1101(j) of Regulation AB, and the Servicer has elected to take responsibility for assessing compliance with the servicing criteria applicable to each vendor as permitted by Interpretation 17.06 of the SEC Division of Corporation Finance Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations 

(Interpretation 17.06). As permitted by Interpretation 17.06, the Servicer has asserted that it has policies and procedures in place designed to provide reasonable assurance that the vendors’ activities comply in all material respects with the servicing criteria applicable to each vendor. The Servicer is solely responsible for determining that it meets the SEC requirements to apply Interpretation 17.06 for the vendors and related criteria as described in its assertion, and we performed no procedures with respect to the Servicer’s eligibility to apply Interpretation 17.06.

 

In our opinion, management’s assessment that the Servicer complied with the aforementioned servicing criteria, including certain servicing criteria outlined in Exhibit A in the accompanying Management Assessment of Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria, for which compliance is determined based on Interpretation 17.06 as described above, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006 is fairly stated, in all material respects.
