| | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| | 5. The reports disclose all
significant deficiencies relating to the Servicers compliance with the

compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage
Bankers or similar procedure as set forth in the Agreement that is included in these reports.
