Item 1122 of Regulation AB, Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria.

The reports on assessment of compliance with the servicing criteria for
asset-backed securities and the related attestation reports on such assessments
of compliance are attached hereto under Item 15.

         LaSalle Bank National Association's ("LaSalle") Report on Assessment
of Compliance with Servicing Criteria for 2007 (the "2007 Assessment") attached
to this Report on Form 10-K describes in Appendix B the following material
instance of noncompliance related to investor reporting:

         "1122(d)(3)(i)(A) and (B) - During the Reporting Period, certain
monthly investor or remittance reports were not prepared in accordance with the
terms set forth in the transaction agreements and certain investor reports did
not provide the information calculated in accordance with the terms specified
in the transaction agreements for which certain individual errors may or may
not have been material."

         The investor reporting errors identified on LaSalle's 2007 Assessment
as material instances of noncompliance (the "Investor Reporting Errors")
included, for example, revised delinquency, REO, foreclosure, repurchase,
payoff or modified loan counts, category indicators and/or balances. The
conclusion that the Investor Reporting Errors amounted to a material instance
of noncompliance was based primarily on the aggregate number of errors as
opposed to the materiality of any one error.

         The Investor Reporting Errors were generally caused by human error
resulting primarily from high volume monthly data processing demands that had
to be addressed within constricted time frames with less than a full complement
of operational staff. Between the fourth quarter of the Reporting Period and
the date of the 2007 Assessment, LaSalle has employed additional operational
staff to accommodate the high volume of monthly investor reporting requirements
and minimize the risk of the Investor Reporting Errors recurring. Other
necessary controls are in place to minimize the risk of such errors.

         With respect to the specific pool assets and asset-backed securities
related to the Investor Reporting Errors, the errors did not have, and are not
reasonable likely in the future to have, any material impact or effect on pool
asset performance, servicing of the pool assets and payments or expected
payments on the mortgage-backed securities.


        PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP disclosed the following material
noncompliance with the servicing criteria set forth in 1122(d)(4)(iv),
1122(d)(4)(viii) and 1122(d)(4)(xiv) of Regulation AB applicable to R&G
Mortgage Corp. and R-G Premier Bank of Puerto Rico, wholly owned subsidiaries
of R&G Financial Corporation (together the "Company")  during the period
from July 1, 2007 to December 31, 2007. As required by 1122(d)(4)(iv) of
Regulation AB, certain payments on pool assets, including any payoffs, made in
accordance with the related pool asset documents were not allocated to
principal, interest or other items in accordance with the related pool asset
documents. As required by 1122(d)(4)(viii) of Regulation AB, certain records
documenting collection efforts were not maintained during the period pool
assets were delinquent in accordance with the transaction agreements. As
required by 1122(d)(4)(xiv) of Regulation AB, certain information in the
delinquency reports sent to the Master Servicer was not reflected in
accordance with the transaction agreements.


      Additionally, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP examination identified the
following material noncompliance with Item 1122(d)(1)(iii) that has not been
identified as an instance of material noncompliance in Management's
Certification Regarding Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria.

      The Company did not comply with Item 1122(d)(1)(iii) of Regulation AB
which required the Company to maintain a back-up servicer for the pool assets
in accordance with the transaction agreements. Specifically, the Company did
not provide certain periodic information about the pool assets to the back-up
servicer during the period from July 1, 2007 to December 31, 2007, as required
pursuant to the transaction agreement dated July 1, 2007 and filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under Form 8-K on August 15, 2007. On
February 14, 2008, the transaction agreement was replaced with a new
transaction agreement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under
Form 8-K/A on that same date. The new transaction agreement, requires the
Company to provide certain periodic information about the pool assets only at
the request of the back-up servicer. For purposes of its assessment,
management determined that it should assess its compliance with this criterion
based on the new transaction agreement rather than the agreement in effect as
of December 31, 2007 and for the period July 1, 2007 to December 31, 2007.
