               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS ON MANAGEMENT'S
           ASSERTION ON COMPLIANCE WITH MINIMUM SERVICING STANDARDS
            SET FORTH IN THE UNIFORM SINGLE ATTESTATION PROGRAM FOR
                               MORTGAGE BANKERS



Board of Directors
Countrywide Financial Corporation

We have examined management's assertion about Countrywide Financial
Corporation and Subsidiaries' (including its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. ("CHL") and Countrywide Home Loans Servicing,
L.P., a wholly-owned subsidiary of CHL) ("the Company") 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, 2003 included in the accompanying
management assertion. Management is responsible for the Company's compliance
with those 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 the Company's compliance with the
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 the Company's compliance with the minimum servicing
standards.

In our opinion, management's assertion that Countrywide Financial Corporation
and Subsidiaries (including its wholly-owned subsidiary, Countrywide Home
Loans, Inc., and Countrywide Home Loans Servicing, L.P., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of CHL) complied with the aforementioned minimum servicing
standards as of and for the year ended December 31, 2003 is fairly stated, in
all material respects, except as disclosed in the attached Schedule of
Findings.

                          SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS - USAP
                               DECEMBER 31, 2003




Statement of Condition:
----------------------

During our testing of the Custodial Cash bank reconciliations, we noted that 1
reconciliation out of 30 reconciliations was not prepared within 45 days of
the cutoff date. Additionally, there were 2 reconciliations out of 30
reconciliations that had items outstanding greater than 90 days that could
have been cleared earlier. Each of these exceptions did not meet the minimum
servicing standards set forth in the Mortgage Banker's Association's Uniform
Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers (the USAP).

Criteria:
--------

The Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers, Section I.1.
requires that reconciliations are mathematically accurate and are prepared
within forty-five (45) calendar days after the cutoff date. Reconciling items
shall also be resolved within ninety (90) calendar days of their original
identification.

Recommendation:
--------------

We recommend that the Company prepare Custodial Cash bank reconciliations and
clear reconciling items within the minimum time periods specified by the USAP.

Corrective Action Plan:
----------------------

Due to significant increases in volume of activity and staff turn-over, these
accounts were being handled by inexperienced staff members. The Company has
since increased the number and quality of staff in this area through
additional hiring and training. As a result, the Company is not aware of any
current USAP violations related to these accounts.

Gentlemen:

As of and for the year ended December 31, 2003, Countrywide Financial
Corporation and Subsidiaries (which includes its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. ("CHL"), and Countrywide Home Loans Servicing,
L.P., a wholly owned subsidiary of CHL) ("the Company") has complied in all
material respects with the minimum servicing standards set forth in the
Mortgage Bankers Association of America's Uniform Single Attestation for
Mortgage Bankers, except as disclosed in the attached Schedule of Findings to
the report. As of and for this same period, the Company had in effect a
fidelity bond and errors and omissions policy in the amount of $215 million
and $240 million, respectively.

The Company investigated the matters noted in the Schedule of Findings and
noted that due to significant increases in volume of activity and staff
turn-over, these accounts were being handled by inexperienced staff members.
The Company has since increased the number and quality of staff in this area
through additional hiring and training. As a result, they are not aware of any
current USAP violations related to these accounts.


Sincerely,
