The Board of Directors

Wells Fargo Bank N.A.

 

We have examined Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.”s (the “Company”) compliance with the servicing criteria set forth Item 1122(d) of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation AB for its primary servicing of residential mortgage loans by its Wells Fargo Home Mortgage division, other than the servicing of such loans for Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, Ginnie Mae, state and local government bond programs, or a Federal Home Loan Bank (the Platform), except for servicing criteria 1122(d)(1)(iii) and 1122(d)(4)(xv), which the Company 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 Company’s compliance with those servicing criteria. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’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 Company’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 Company 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 Company during the period covered by this report. Our procedures were notdesigned 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 Company 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 Company’s compliance with the servicing criteria.

 

Our examination disclosed the following instances of material noncompliance with certain servicing criteria applicable to the Company during the year ended December 31, 2006:

 

|   | 1. | 1122(d)(3)(i)-Delinquency Reporting – The Company provided incomplete data to some third parties who use such data to calculate delinquency ratios and determine the status of loans with respect to bankruptcy, foreclosure or real estate owned. Instead of the actual due date being provided for use in calculating delinquencies, the date of the first payment due to the security was provided. |
|--------|----|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

 

|   | 2. | 1122(d)(4)(vii) – Notification of Intent to Foreclose – The Company, as required by certain servicing agreements, did not provide investors with prior notification of intent to foreclose. |
|--------|----|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

 

As described in the accompanying 2006 Certification Regarding Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria, for servicing criteria 1122(d)(2)(i), 1122(d)(2)(vi), 1122(d)(4)(iv), 

1122(d)(4)(xi), and 1122(d)(4)(xiii), the Company has engaged various vendors to perform the activities required by these servicing criteria. The Company has determined that these vendors are not considered “servicers” as defined in Item 1101(i) of Regulation AB, and the Company 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”), with exception of those vendors who have provided their own reports on assessments of compliance with servicing criteria to the Company, for which the Company does not take such responsibility. As permitted by Interpretation 17.06, the Company has asserted that it has policies and procedures in place designed to provide reasonable assurance thatthe vendors’ activities comply in all material respects with the servicing criteria applicable to each vendor. The Company 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 Company’s eligibility to apply Interpretation 17.06.

 

In our opinion, except for the instances of material noncompliance described above, the Company complied, in all material respects, with the aforementioned servicing criteria as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006
