| MATTHEWS, CARTER AND BOYCE, P.C. CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS Independent Accountants' Report To the Board of Directors Allied Capital Corporation We have examined management's assertion about Allied Capital Corporation's compliance with the minimum servicing standards identified in the Mortgage Bankers Association of America's Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers (USAP) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2004 included in the accompanying management assertion. Management is responsible for Allied Capital Corporation's compliance with those applicable minimum servicing standards. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management's assertion about the entity's compliance based on our examination. Our examination was made in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about Allied Capital Corporation's compliance with the applicable minimum servicing standards and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal determination on Allied Capital Corporation's compliance with the applicable minimum servicing standards. In our opinion, management's assertion that Allied Capital Corporation, in its capacity as Special Servicer, complied with the aforementioned applicable minimum servicing standards as of and for the year ended December 31, 2004 is fairly stated, in all material respects, as set forth in the criteria attached. ***MATTHEWS, CARTER AND BOYCE***March 8, 2005 11320 Random Hills Road * Suite 600 * Fairfax, Virginia 22030-7427 * TEL: 703-218-3600 * FAX: 703-218-1808 |
