| 1.   | Barclays                Capital Real Estate Inc. d/b/a HomEq Servicing ("HomEq") is responsible                for assessing                compliance with the applicable servicing criteria set forth in Item                1122(d) of Regulation                AB of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Applicable Servicing                Criteria"),                as of December 31, 2006 and for the period from November 1, 2006                through                December                31, 2006 (the "Reporting Period"), as set forth in Appendix A hereto.                The                transactions                covered by this report include asset-backed securities transactions                for                which HomEq                acted as servicer involving subprime residential mortgage loans (other                than transactions                that closed prior to January 1, 2006) (the                "Platform"); |

| 2.   | HomEq                has engaged a vendor (the "Vendor") to perform specific, limited                or                scripted activities,                and HomEq elects to take responsibility for assessing compliance                with the                servicing                criteria or portion of the servicing criteria applicable to such                Vendor's                activities as set                forth in Appendix A hereto. HomEq management has determined that                this                Vendor is not considered                a "servicer" as defined in item 1101 (j) of Regulation AB, and HomEq's                management                has elected to take responsibility for assessing compliance with                the                servicing criteria                applicable to this Vendor as permitted by Interpretation 17.06 of                the SEC                Division of Corporation                Finance Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations                ("Interpretation 17.06").                As permitted by Interpretation 17.06, management has asserted that                it has                policies and                procedures in place to provide reasonable assurance that the Vendor's                activities comply in                all material respects with the servicing criteria applicable to the                Vendor. The Company's management                is solely responsible for determining that HomEq meets the SEC                requirements to                apply Interpretation 17.06 for the Vendor and related criteria as                described in HomEq's assertion; |

| 3.   | Except                as set forth in paragraph 4 below, HomEq's management used the criteria                set forth in paragraph                (d) of Item 1122 of Regulation AB to assess the compliance with the                applicable servicing                criteria; |
|----------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 4.   | The                criteria listed in the column titled "Inapplicable Servicing Criteria"                on                Appendix A hereto                are inapplicable to HomEq based on the activities it performs, directly                or                through its Vendor,                with respect to the Platform; |
|----------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 5.   | HomEq                has not identified and is not aware of any material instance of                noncompliance by the Vendor                with the Applicable Servicing Criteria as of December 31, 2006 and                for the                Reporting                Period with respect to the Platform taken as a                whole; |
|----------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 6.   | HomEq                has not identified any material deficiency in its policies and procedures                to monitor the                compliance by the Vendor with the Applicable Servicing Criteria as                of                December 31, 2006                and for the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as                a                whole; and |
|----------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 7.   | Based                on such assessment, HomEq has complied, in all material respects,                with the                Applicable                Servicing Criteria, including servicing criteria for which compliance                is                determined                based on Interpretation 17.06 as described above, as of December                31, 2006                and for                the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as a                whole; |
