Report on Management's Assertion on Compliance
with Minimum Servicing Standards Set Forth in the
Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers

Report of Independent Accountants

Board of Directors Aurora Loan Services Inc.

We have examined management's assertion, included in the accompanying report
titled Report of Management, that Aurora Loan Services Inc. (the "Company")
complied with the minimum servicing standards set forth in the Mortgage Bankers
Association of America's Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers
(USAP) during the year ended November 30, 2001. Management is responsible for
the Company's compliance with those requirements. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on management's assertions about the Company's compliance
based on our examination.

Our examination was made in accordance with attestation standards established by
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and, accordingly,
included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Company's compliance
with those requirements 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 the Company's compliance with specified requirements.

In our opinion, management's assertion, that the Company complied with the
aforementioned requirements during the year ended November 30, 2001, is fairly
stated, in all material respects.
