              Management's Report on Assessment of Compliance with
                          Applicable Servicing Criteria

     JPMorgan  Chase  Bank,  National  Association  (the  "Asserting  Party") is
responsible for assessing compliance as of September 30, 2006 and for the period
from January 1, 2006 through September 30, 2006 (the "Reporting  Period"),  with
the servicing  criteria set forth in Title 17, Section  229.1122 (d) of the Code
of Federal  Regulations  (the  "CFR"),  to the extent  required  by the  related
transaction   agreements  and  excluding  the  criteria  set  forth  in  17  CFR
229.1122(d)  (1)(ii)-(iv),  (2)(iii),  (2)(vi),  (4)(i)-(ii),  and (4)(iv)-(xiv)
which the Asserting  Party has concluded are not applicable to the activities it
performs with respect to the asset-backed securitization transactions covered by
this report (such  criteria,  after giving effect to the  exclusions  identified

asset-backed  securities  transactions  backed by  residential  mortgages,  home
equity loans, auto loans,  credit card receivables,  dealer floor plans,  retail
installment  contracts and manufactured housing contracts for which transactions
the  Asserting  Party  performs the  Applicable  Servicing  Criteria as trustee,
securities   administrator  or  paying  agent  that  were  registered  with  the
Securities  and Exchange  Commission  pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended,  where the related asset-backed  securities were outstanding during the
reporting period (the "Platform"), as listed in Appendix A.

     The  Asserting  Party  has  (i)  used  the  criteria  set  forth  in 17 CFR
229.1122(d) to assess the compliance by the Asserting  Party with the Applicable
Servicing  Criteria for the Reporting Period and (ii) concluded that, other than
as identified on Appendix B, the Asserting  Party has complied,  in all material
respects,  with the Applicable  Servicing  Criteria as of September 30, 2006 and
for the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform, taken as a whole.

     PricewaterhouseCoopers  LLP, an independent  registered  public  accounting
firm,  has issued an  attestation  report  for the  Platform,  stating  that the
Asserting Party has complied with the Applicable Servicing Criteria,  except for
material  instances of non-compliance  identified on Appendix B, as of September
30, 2006 and for the Reporting Period.

              Management's Report on Assessment of Compliance with
                          Applicable Servicing Criteria

     JPMorgan  Chase  Bank,  National  Association  (the  "Asserting  Party") is
responsible  for  assessing  compliance as of October 1, 2006 and for the period

of Federal  Regulations  (the  "CFR"),  to the extent  required  by the  related
transaction  agreements  excluding the criteria set forth in 17 CFR  229.1122(d)
(1)(i)-(iv),  (2)(i)-(vi),  (3)(i)-(iv),  and  (4)(i)-(xv),  which the Asserting
Party has  concluded  are not  applicable  to the  activities  it performs  with
respect to the asset-backed  securitization  transactions covered by this report
(such  criteria,  after giving effect to the exclusions  identified  above,  the
"Applicable Servicing Criteria"). This report covers the asset-backed securities
transactions backed by residential  mortgages and home equity loans, auto loans,

housing  contracts  for which  transactions  the  Asserting  Party  performs the
applicable  servicing  criteria,  that were  registered  with the Securities and
Exchange  Commission  pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,  where
the related  asset-backed  securities were either (1) issued during the calendar
year ending  December 31, 2006 or (2) issued  prior to the calendar  year ending
December 31, 2006 and remain  subject to the  reporting  requirements  under the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the  "Platform"),  as listed in
Appendix A.

     The  Asserting  Party  has  (i)  used  the  criteria  set  forth  in 17 CFR
229.1122(d) to assess the compliance by the Asserting  Party with the Applicable
Servicing  Criteria  for the  Reporting  Period  and  (ii)  concluded  that  the
Asserting  Party has complied,  in all material  respects,  with the  Applicable
Servicing  Criteria as of December  31, 2006 and for the  Reporting  Period with
respect to the Platform, taken as a whole.

     PricewaterhouseCoopers  LLP, an independent  registered  public  accounting
firm,  has issued an attestation  report for the Platform,  on our assessment of
compliance with the Applicable  Servicing  Criteria as of December  31, 2006
and for the Reporting Period as set forth in this report.

securities and other asset-backed  securities issued on or after January 1, 2006
for which the Company  provides  trustee,  securities  administration  or paying
agent services,  excluding any publicly issued transactions  sponsored or issued
by any government sponsored entity (the "Platform").

Applicable  Servicing  Criteria:  All servicing criteria set forth Item 1122(d),
except   for   the   following   criteria:   1122(d)(2)(iii),    1122(d)(4)(iv),
1122(d)(4)(v), 1122(d)(vi), 1122(d)(4)(vii),  1122(d)(4)(viii),  1122(d)(4)(ix),
1122(d)(4)(x),    1122(d)(4)(xi),    1122(d)(4)(xii),    1122(d)(4)(xiii)    and
1122(d)(4)(xiv),  which  management  has  determined  are not  applicable to the
activities  the Company  performs with respect to the Platform (the  "Applicable
Servicing Criteria").

Period: Twelve months ended December 31, 2006 (the "Period").

Management's  interpretation  of Applicable  Servicing  Criteria:  The Company's
management has determined that servicing criteria  1122(d)(1)(iii) is applicable
only with respect to its continuing obligation to act as, or locate a, successor
servicer under the circumstances referred to in certain governing documents.  It
is management's  interpretation  that Deutsche Bank Trust Company America has no
other active back-up servicing responsibilities in regards to 1122(d)(1)(iii) as
of and for the Period.

Third  parties  classified  as  vendors:  With  respect  to  servicing  criteria
1122(d)(2)(i), 1122(d)(4)(i), and 1122(d)(4)(ii), management has engaged various
vendors to perform the  activities  required by these  servicing  criteria.  The
Company's  management  has  determined  that these vendors are not  considered a
"servicer"  as  defined  in Item  1101(j) of  Regulation  AB, and the  Company's
management has elected to take responsibility for assessing  compliance with the
servicing  criteria  applicable  to each 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 each
vendor.  The Company's  management is solely responsible for determining that it
meets the SEC requirements to apply Interpretation 17.06 for vendors and related
criteria.

With respect to the Platform,  the Company's  management  provides the following
assertion of compliance with respect to the Applicable Servicing Criteria:

1.   The  Company's  management  is  responsible  for  assessing  the  Company's
     compliance with the Applicable Servicing Criteria as of and for the Period.

2.   The  Company's  management  has  assessed  compliance  with the  Applicable
     Servicing  Criteria,  including  servicing criteria for which compliance is
     determined based on Interpretation  17.06 as described above, as of and for
     the Period. In performing this assessment, management used the criteria set
     forth by the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission in paragraph (d) of Item
     1122 of Regulation AB.

3.   Based  on such  assessment,  as of and  for the  Period,  the  Company  has
     complied, in all material respects, with the Applicable Servicing Criteria.

KPMG LLP, a registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation  report
with respect to the  management's  assertion of compliance  with the  Applicable
Servicing Criteria as of and for the Period.

Servicing  Criteria for the  Reporting  Period and (ii) has  concluded  that the
Asserting  Party has complied,  in all material  respects,  with the  Applicable
Servicing  Criteria as of December  31, 2006 and for the  Reporting  Period with

       Assessment Regarding Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria

1.   Avelo  Mortgage,   LLC  (the   "Servicer")  is  responsible  for  assessing
     compliance,  as of December  31, 2006 and for the period from  February 24,
     2006 (the  first day of the  distribution  period in which the GS  Mortgage
     Securities Corp. ("GSMSG") first issued securities subject to Regulation AB
     through  December 31, 2006 (the  "Reporting  Period"),  with the  servicing
     criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB, excluding the criteria
     set  forth  in Item  1122(d)(1)(i),  (d)(1)(iii),  (d)(2)(ii),  (d)(2)(iv),
     (d)(3)(iii), (d)(4)(i), (d)(4)(ii), (d)(4)(iii), (d)(4)(vi), and (d)(4)(xv)
     of Regulation  AB, which the Servicer has  concluded are not  applicable to
     the  activities  it performs,  directly,  with respect to the  asset-backed
     securities transactions covered by this report (such criteria, after giving
     effect  to the  exclusions  identified  above,  the  "Applicable  Servicing
     Criteria").  The transactions in which the Servicer was a party are covered
     by  this  report  included  those  asset-backed   securities   transactions
     conducted  by the  GSMSG  that  were  registered  with the  Securities  and
     Exchange  Commission  pursuant  to the  Securities  Act of 1933  where  the
     related  asset-backed  securities  were  outstanding  during the  Reporting
     Period (the "Platform"), as listed in Appendix A.

2.   The  Servicer  has  engaged  certain  vendors  (the  "Vendors")  to perform
     specific,  limited or scripted  activities for the reporting period and the
     Servicer  elects  to take  responsibility  for  assessing  compliance  with
     certain servicing criteria applicable to such Vendors.

3.   The Servicer has complied,  in all material  respects,  with the applicable
     servicing criteria as of and for the Reporting Period except as follows:

         The Servicer assessed its compliance with the Applicable Servicing
         Criteria for the Reporting Period and has identified a material
         instance of non-compliance with servicing criterion set  forth in
         Item 1122(d)(2)(vii) of Regulation AB with respect to the Platform.
         Specifically, the Servicer did not prepare reconciliations for all
         asset-backed securities related bank accounts within 30 calendar days
         after the bank statement cut-off date, or as such other number of days
         as specified in the transaction agreements and reconciling items were
         not resolved within 90 days of their original identification or such
         other number of days as specified in the transaction agreements.

4.   The Servicer has not identified  and is not aware of any material  instance
     of non-compliance by the Vendors with the applicable servicing criteria for
     the Reporting Period;

5.   The Servicer has not identified any material deficiency in its policies and
     procedures  to monitor the  compliance  by the Vendors with the  applicable
     servicing criteria for the Reporting Period;

6.   PricewaterhouseCoopers  LLP, an independent  registered  public  accounting
     firm, has issued an  attestation  report for the Platform on the assessment
     of   compliance   with   the   Applicable    Servicing   Criteria   as   of
     December 31, 2006 and for the Reporting Period.

                                   APPENDIX B*

1. GreenPoint has identified the following noncompliance with servicing criteria
1122(d)(1)(i),  1122(d)(2)(iv),  and  1122(d)(3)(ii)  applicable to the Platform
during the year ended December 31, 2006 as follows:

1122(d)(1)(i) - GreenPoint did not institute  policies and procedures to monitor
performance  or other  triggers  and events of defaults in  accordance  with the
transaction agreements.

1122(d)(2)(iv) - GreenPoint did not establish  separate P&I and T&I accounts for
certain  securitizations  which  allowed  funds  to  be  commingled  in  various
custodial accounts.

1122(d)(3)(ii) - In certain  situations  where GreenPoint has received  mortgage
insurance  proceeds  prior to the  liquidation  of the related  properties,  the
mortgage  insurance proceeds were not remitted at the time of the next regularly
scheduled remittance date as required by the transaction agreements, but instead
remained in the related  custodial account and were remitted at the time the REO
liquidation proceeds were remitted to the Master Servicer.

2. GreenPoint has implemented the following remediation procedures:

1122(d)(1)(i) - GreenPoint has active  monitoring of the entire portfolio and at
investor levels but not at the securitization transaction level. GreenPoint will
establish  policies and procedures to monitor  performance or other triggers and
events of default in accordance with the transaction agreements.

1122(d)(2)(iv) - GreenPoint has separated the commingled  funds  and established
proper  custodial and escrow accounts and improved the oversight of establishing
such accounts as required by the related agreements.

1122(d)(3)(ii) - GreenPoint is modifying  applicable  agreements to clarify that
such mortgage  insurance  proceeds may be remitted at the time of the remittance
of the REO  liquidation  proceeds or modifying its remittance  practice to remit
the mortgage insurance  proceeds during the next regularly  schedule  remittance
where required.

             REPORT ON ASSESSMENT OF COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATION AB
                              SERVICING CRITERIA

PHH Mortgage  Corporation  (the "Asserting  Party") is responsible for assessing
compliance  as of  December  31,  2006 and for the period  from  January 1, 2006
through December 31, 2006 (the "Reporting  Period") with the servicing  criteria
set forth in Section 229.1122(d) of the Code of Federal Regulations (the "CFR"),
except  for  criteria  set forth in  Section  229.1122(d)(3)(i)(c),  (d)(4)(ii),
(d)(4)(xv) and  (d)(1))(iii) of the CFR, which the Asserting Party has concluded
are not  applicable to the servicing  activities it performs with respect to the
transactions covered by this report (the "Applicable Servicing  Criteria").  The
criteria set forth in Section 229.1122 (d)(4)(vii) and (d)(4)(xi) of the CPR are
performed by outsource providers on behalf of the Asserting Party;  however, the
Asserting  Party has monitored  the  outsourcing  of these  criteria and assumes
responsibility for compliance.  The transactions  covered by this report include
all non-agency  loan sale  agreements  executed after January 1, 2006 as well as
all re-securitization transactions after January 1, 2006 for which the Asserting
Party served as servicer (the "Platform").

The Asserting Party has assessed its compliance  with the Servicing  Criteria as
of December 31, 2006 and for the  Reporting  Period and has  concluded  that the
Asserting  Party has  complied,  in all material  respects,  with the  Servicing
Criteria  with respect to the Platform  taken as a whole except for as discussed
below:


Standard            Description

1122(d)(l)(i)       The  Asserting   Party  has  not  instituted   policies  and
                    procedures  to  specifically  monitor  performance  or other
                    triggers  or events  of  default  stated in the  transaction
                    agreements

1122(d)(1)(iv)      During  the  months  of July,  August,  and  September,  the
                    Company's  minimum  coverage  requirement  exceeded its $160
                    million fidelity bond by amounts ranging up to approximately
                    $1.3 million.  Effective  September 27, 2006,  the Company's
                    fidelity bond was increased to $170 million.

1122(d)(3)(i)(A)    The  Asserting  Party did not maintain or provide one of the
                    required   monthly   reports   stated  in  the   transaction
                    agreements during the year

1122(d)(3)(i)(D)    The Asserting Party did not perform  procedures to agree the
                    unpaid principal balance and number of loans serviced by the
                    Asserting Party with that of the investor and trustees

Deloitte  &  Touche,  an  independent  public  accounting  firm,  has  issued an
attestation  report on the assessment of compliance with the Servicing  Criteria
for the Reporting Period as set forth in this assertion.

    REPORT ON ASSESSMENT OF COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATION AB SERVICING CRITERIA

SunTrust  Mortgage,  Inc. (the  "Asserting  Party") is responsible for assessing
compliance  as of and for the year  ended  December  31,  2006  (the  "Reporting
Period") with the servicing criteria set forth in Title 17, Section  229.1122(d)
of the Code of  Federal  Regulations  (the  "CFR"),  as set forth in  Appendix A
hereto in  connection  with the  servicing of the  asset-backed  securitizations
backed by  residential  mortgage  loans  serviced  by the  Asserting  Party (the
"Applicable  Servicing  Criteria").  This report covers all residential mortgage
loan  securitization   transactions  occurring  after  December  31,  2005  (the
"Platform").

The Asserting  Party has assessed its compliance  with the Applicable  Servicing
Criteria for the Reporting period and has identified three material instances of
noncompliance  with servicing  criteria set forth in Section  229.1122(d)(1)(i),
Section 229.1122(d)(2)(i), and Section 229.1122(d)(2)(iv),  respectively, of the
CFR with respect to the Platform.  Specifically,  for the period from January 1,
2006  through  December  31,  2006 the  Asserting  Party  (a) did not  institute
policies and procedures to monitor any  performance or other triggers and events
of default in accordance  with the transaction  agreements,  (b) did not process
payments into the  appropriate  custodial bank accounts within two business days
of receipt or per the related transaction  agreement,  and (c) did not establish
separately  maintained  custodial  accounts in  accordance  with the  applicable
transaction agreements. The Asserting Party has further concluded that, with the
exception  of  the  aforementioned  material  instances  of  noncompliance,  the
Asserting  Party has complied,  in all material  respects,  with the  Applicable
Servicing  Criteria as of December  31, 2006 and for the period from  January 1,
2006 through December 31, 2006.

Pricewaterhouse  Coopers LLP, an independent  public accounting firm, has issued
an  attestation  report on the  assessment  of  compliance  with the  Applicable
Servicing Criteria for the Reporting Period.

                    Report on Assessment of Compliance with
                Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation
                              AB Servicing Criteria

For the  calendar  year  ending  December  31,  2006,  or portion  thereof  (the
"Period"), ZC Sterling Insurance Agency, Inc. ("ZCSIA") has been a subcontractor
for Servicers identified in Appendix A.

The undersigned are Senior Vice Presidents of ZCSIA,  have sufficient  authority
to make the  statements  contained in this  Assertion  and are  responsible  for
assessing  compliance with the servicing criteria applicable to ZCSIA. ZCSIA has
used the  servicing  criteria  communicated  to ZCSIA by the  Servicer to assess
compliance  with  the  applicable  servicing  criteria.  Accordingly,  servicing
criteria 1122 (d) 1 (iv),  1122 (d) 2 (vi),  1122 (d) 4 (xi),  1122 (d) 4 (xii),
and 1122 (d) 4 (xiii) are applicable to the  activities  performed by ZCSIA with
respect  to the  Platforms  covered  by this  report.  The  remaining  servicing
criteria set forth in Item 1122 (d) of the Securities and Exchange  Commission's
Regulation  AB are not  applicable  to the  activities  performed  by ZCSIA with
respect to the Platform covered by this report. As a subcontractor for Servicer,
ZCSIA  has  determined  that it  complied  in all  material  respects  with  the
servicing  criteria listed below.  ZCSIA engaged Ernst & Young,  LLP ("E&Y"),  a
registered  public  accounting  firm to review ZCSIA's  assessment,  and E&Y has
issued an  attestation  report on  ZCSIA's  assessment  of  compliance  with the
applicable servicing criteria for the Period.

1.   ZCSIA maintained a fidelity bond and errors & omissions policy in effect on
     ZCSIA throughout the reporting period in the amount of coverage required by
     the transaction agreements between the Servicer and ZCSIA (1122(d)(1)(iv)).

2.   To the extent  that ZCSIA  prints  checks for  Servicer  or  otherwise  has
     Servicer's checks or check stock,  unissued checks are safeguarded so as to
     prevent  unauthorized  access  (1122(d)(2)(vi)).  [AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2006,
     THIS  PROVISION  WILL  APPLY  ONLY FOR THE  FOLLOWING  SERVICERS:  ABN Amro
     Mortgage Group, Inc., Option One Mortgage Corporation,  Sun Trust Mortgage,
     Inc., HomEq Servicing Corporation,  Wachovia Insurance  Corporation,  Wells
     Fargo Home Mortgage.]

3.   Payments  made on behalf of Servicer's  obligor for insurance  premiums are
     made on or before the related penalty or expiration  dates, as indicated on
     the  appropriate  bills or notices for such  payments,  provided  that such
     support has been  received by the  Servicer at least  thirty (30)  calendar
     days prior to these dates,  or such other  number of days  specified in the
     transaction agreements between Servicer and ZCSIA (1122(d)(4)(xi)).

4.   Any late payment  penalties in connection with any payment for insurance to
     be made on behalf of Servicer's  obligor are paid from the Servicer's funds
     or ZCSIA's  funds and not charged to  Servicer's  obligor,  unless the late
     payment was due to the obligor's error or omission (1122(d)(4)(xii)).

5.   File(s)  provided to Servicer  from which  Servicer may make  disbursements
     made on behalf  of  Servicer's  obligor  are  provided  to  Servicer  on an
     accurate  and timely basis and the  information  thereon is subject to such
     controls as are specified in the transaction  agreements  between  Servicer
     and ZCSIA (1122(d)(4)(xiii)).

                      MANAGEMENT'S ASSERTION ON COMPLIANCE
                           WITH REGULATION AB CRITERIA

                                February 26, 2007

compliance with any other criteria set forth in Section 229.1122(d) of the CFR.

             Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors
The Bank of New York

We  have  examined   management's   assertion,   included  in  the  accompanying
Management's  Report  on  Assertion  of  Compliance  with  Applicable  Servicing
Criteria that The Bank of New York and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A.,
(collectively, the "Company"), complied with the servicing criteria set forth in
Item 1122(d) of the Securities and Exchange  Commission's  Regulation AB for the
publicly issued (i.e.  transaction-level  reporting initially required under the
Securities  and Exchange Act of 1934,  as amended)  residential  mortgage-backed
securities and other mortgage-related asset-backed securities issued on or after
January 1, 2006 (and like-kind transactions issued prior to January 1, 2006) for
which the Company provides trustee, securities administration,  paying agent, or
custodial  services (the  "Platform")  as of and for the year ended December 31,
2006 except for criteria 1122(d)(1)(ii)-(iv),  and 1122(d)(4)(iv)-(xiii),  which
the Company has determined  are not  applicable to the  activities  performed by
them with respect to the servicing Platform covered by this report. The Platform
includes  like-kind   transactions  for  which  the  Company  provided  trustee,
securities administration, paying agent or custodial services as a result of the
Company's  acquisition as of October 1, 2006 of portions of JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A.'s corporate trust business,  including  structured finance agency and trust
transactions.  Management is responsible for the Company's compliance with those
servicing criteria.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management's
assertion about the Company's  compliance  with the servicing  criteria based on
our examination.

Our  examination  was  conducted  in  accordance  with   attestation   standards
established  by the  American  Institute  of Certified  Public  Accountants,  as
adopted by the Public Company  Accounting  Oversight  Board (United States) and,
accordingly,  included examining,  on a test basis, evidence about the Company's
compliance  with the applicable  servicing  criteria and  performing  such other
procedures  as we considered  necessary in the  circumstances.  Our  examination
included testing of less than all of the individual  transactions and securities
that comprise the platform, testing of less than all of the servicing activities
related to the Platform,  and  determining  whether the Company  processed those
selected transactions and performed those selected activities in compliance with
the servicing criteria and as permitted by the  Interpretation  17.06 of the SEC
Division  of  Corporation   Finance  Manual  of  Publicly  Available   Telephone
Interpretations  ("Interpretation  17.06").  Furthermore,  our  procedures  were
limited to the selected  transactions and servicing  activities performed by the
Company  during  the period  covered by this  report.  Our  procedures  were not
designed  to  determine  whether  errors may have  occurred  either  prior to or
subsequent  to our  tests  that  may  have  affected  the  balances  or  amounts
calculated or reported by the Company  during the period  covered by this report
for the selected  transactions  or any other  transactions.  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 servicing
criteria.

In our  opinion,  management's  assertion  that the  Company  complied  with the
aforementioned  servicing  criteria,  including  servicing  criteria  for  which
compliance is determined  based on  Interpretation 17.06  as described above, as
applicable,  as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006 for the Platform, is
fairly stated, in all material respects.

             Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association

We have examined  JPMorgan Chase Bank,  National  Association's  (the "Company")
compliance  with  the  servicing  criteria  set  forth  in Item  1122(d)  of the
Securities and Exchange Commission's  Regulation AB as of September 30, 2006 and
for the  period  from  January 1, 2006 to  September  30,  2006 (the  "Reporting
Period") for the  asset-backed  securities  transactions  backed by  residential
mortgages, home equity loans, auto loans, credit card receivables,  dealer floor
plans, retail installment contracts and manufactured housing contracts that were
registered  with  the  Securities  and  Exchange   Commission  pursuant  to  the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended,  where the related  asset-backed  securities
were outstanding  during the Reporting Period (the "Platform")  described in the
accompanying  Management's  Report on Assessment of Compliance  with  Applicable
Servicing  Criteria,  excluding criteria  1122(d)(1)(ii)-(iv),  1122(d)(2)(iii),
1122(d)(2)(vi),  1122(d)(4)(i)-(ii), and 1122(d)(4)(iv)-(xiv), which the Company
has determined are not  applicable to the servicing  activities  performed by it
with respect to the Platform.  Appendix A to management's  assertion  identifies
the individual asset-backed transactions and securities defined by management as
constituting   the  Platform.   Management  is  responsible  for  the  Company's
compliance  with the servicing  criteria.  Our  responsibility  is to express an
opinion on the Company's  compliance  with the servicing  criteria  based on our
examination.

Our examination was conducted in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining,
on a test basis,  evidence  about the Company's  compliance  with the applicable
servicing  criteria  and  performing  such  other  procedures  as we  considered
necessary in the  circumstances.  Our examination  included  testing of selected
asset- backed transactions and securities that comprise the Platform, testing of
selected servicing  activities related to the Platform,  and determining whether
the Company  processed those selected  transactions and performed those selected
activities in compliance with the applicable servicing criteria.  Our procedures
were limited to the selected  transactions and servicing activities performed by
the Company  during the period covered by this report.  Our procedures  were not
designed to detect  noncompliance  arising  from  errors that may have  occurred
prior to or  subsequent  to our tests that may have  affected  the  balances  or
amounts  calculated or reported by the Company during the period covered by this
report.  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 servicing criteria.

Our  examination  disclosed  the  following  material   noncompliance  with  the
servicing  criteria  set  forth in Items  1122(d)(3)(i)  and  1122(d)(3)(ii)  of
Regulation AB  applicable to the Company  during the period from January 1, 2006
to September 30, 2006.  Certain monthly  investor  reports  omitted  information
required  by  the  transaction   agreements   and/or  contained  errors  in  the
information  presented  and certain  monthly  investor  distributions  contained
errors as to the amounts due to certain investors.

In our opinion, except for the material noncompliance described in the preceding
paragraph,   JPMorgan  Chase  Bank,  National   Association  complied  with  the
aforementioned  applicable  servicing  criteria  as of and for the period  ended
September 30, 2006 for the Platform, in all material respects.

We  have  examined   management's   assertion,   included  in  the  accompanying

In our opinion,  management's  assertion that the JPMorgan Chase Bank,  National
Association complied with the aforementioned applicable servicing criteria as of
and for the period ended December 31, 2006 for the Platform is fairly stated, in
all material respects.

        Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors
The Trust & Securities Services department of Deutsche Bank National Trust
        Company and Deutsche Bank Company Americas:

We have examined management's  assertion,  included in the accompanying Appendix
I, that the Trust & Securities  Services  department  of Deutsche  Bank National
Trust  Company  and  Deutsche  Bank Trust  Company  Americas  (collectively  the
"Company") complied with the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of the
Securities and Exchange  Commission's  Regulation AB for publicly-issued  (i.e.,
transaction-level  reporting required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as  amended)  residential  mortgage-backed  securities  and  other  asset-backed
securities  issued on or after January 1, 2006,  for which the Company  provides
trustee,  securities  administration  or paying agent  services,  excluding  any
publicly issued  transactions,  sponsored or issued by any government  sponsored
entity  (the  Platform),  except  for the  servicing  criteria  1122(d)(2)(iii),
1122(d)(4)(iv),       1122(d)(4)(v),      1122(d)(4)(vi),       1122(d)(4)(vii),
1122(d)(4)(viii),       1122(d)(4)(ix),      1122(d)(4)(x),      1122(d)(4)(xi),
1122(d)(4)(xii),  1122(d)(4)(xiii)  and  1122(d)(4)(xiv),  which the Company has
determined  are not applicable to the activities it performs with respect to the
Platform, as of and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006. Management is
responsible  for the Company's  compliance with those  servicing  criteria.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion  on  management's  assertion  about the
Company's compliance based on our examination.

Our  examination  was conducted in  accordance  with the standards of the Public
Company Accounting  Oversight Board (United States) and,  accordingly,  included
examining,  on a test basis,  evidence about the Company's  compliance  with the
servicing  criteria  specified above and performing such other  procedures as we
considered  necessary in the circumstances.  Our examination included testing of
less than all of the individual  asset-backed  transactions  and securities that
comprise  the  Platform,  testing of less than all of the  servicing  activities
related to the Platform,  and  determining  whether the Company  processed those
selected transactions and performed those selected activities in compliance with
the servicing criteria. Furthermore, our procedures were limited to the selected
transactions and servicing activities performed by the Company during the period
covered by this report.  Our procedures  were not designed to determine  whether
errors may have  occurred  either prior to or  subsequent  to our tests that may
have  affected  the  balances or amounts  calculated  or reported by the Company
during the period  covered by this report for the selected  transactions  or any
other transactions.  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 servicing criteria.

As described in management's  assertion included in the accompanying Appendix I,
for servicing  criteria  1122(d)(2)(i),  1122(d)(4)(i) and  1122(d)(4)(ii),  the
Company has engaged various vendors to perform the activities  required by these
servicing  criteria.  The  Company  has  determined  that these  vendors are not
considered a "servicer"  as defined in Item  1101(j) of  Regulation  AB, and the
Company has elected to take  responsibility  for assessing  compliance  with the
servicing  criteria  applicable  to each 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,  the  Company  has  asserted  that  it has  policies  and
procedures in place designed to provide  reasonable  assurance that the vendors'
activities  comply  in  all  material  respects  with  the  servicing   criteria
applicable to each vendor.  The Company is solely  responsible  for  determining
that it meets the SEC requirements to apply Interpretation 17.06 for the vendors
and  related  criteria  as  described  in its  assertion,  and we  performed  no
procedures  with respect to the Company's  eligibility  to apply  Interpretation
17.06.

In our  opinion,  management's  assertion  that the  Company  complied  with the
aforementioned  servicing criteria,  including servicing criteria 1122(d)(2)(i),
1122(d)(4)(i)  and  1122(d)(4)(ii)  for which  compliance is determined based on
Interpretation  17.06 as described  above, as of and for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2006 is fairly stated, in all material respects.

             Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association:

We have examined management's assertion, included in the accompanying
Management's Report on Assessment of Compliance with Applicable Servicing
Criteria, that JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (the "Company")
complied with the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d)of the Securities
and Exchange Commission's Regulation AB for asset-backed securities transactions
backed by residential mortgages and home equity loans, for which the Company
acts as Custodian (the "Platform"), as of September 30, 2006 and for the period
from January 1, 2006 to September 30, 2006 excluding criteria
1122(d)(1)(i)-(iv), (2)(i)-(iv), (3)(i)-(iv), and (4)(iii)-(xv), which the
Company has determined are not applicable to the activities performed by it with
respect to the Platform. Appendix A to the management's assertion identifies the
individual asset-backed transactions and securities defined by management as
constituting the Platform. Management is responsible for the Company's
compliance with the servicing criteria. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on management's assertion based on our examination.

Our examination was conducted in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining,
on a test basis, evidence about the Company's compliance with the applicable
servicing criteria and performing such other procedures as we considered
necessary in the circumstances. Our examination included testing of selected
asset- backed transactions and securities that comprise the Platform, testing of
selected servicing activities related to the Platform, and determining whether
the Company processed those selected transactions and performed those selected
activities in compliance with the applicable servicing criteria. Our procedures
were limited to the selected transactions and servicing activities performed by
the Company during the period covered by this report. Our procedures were not
designed to detect noncompliance arising from errors that may have occurred
prior to or subsequent to our tests that may have affected the balances or
amounts calculated or reported by the Company during the period covered by this
report. 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 servicing criteria.

In our  opinion,  management's  assertion  that the  Company  complied  with the
aforementioned  applicable  servicing  criteria  as of and  for the  year  ended
September 30, 2006 for the Platform is fairly stated, in all material respects.

             Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

We have examined management's assertion,  included in the accompanying Report on
Assessment of Compliance  with SEC Regulation AB Servicing  Criteria,  that U.S.
Bank National Association (the Company) complied with the servicing criteria set
forth in Item 1122 (d) of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation AB
for the Corporate  Trust Asset Backed  Securities  platform (the Platform) as of
and for the year ended  December  31, 2006,  except for criteria  1122(d)(1)(i),
1122 (d)(1)(iii),  1122(d)(2)(i) through 1122(d)(2)(vii),  1122(d)(3)(i) through
1122(d)(3)(iv), and 1122(d)(4)(iv) through 1122(d)(4)(xv), which the Company has
determined are not  applicable to the activities  performed by them with respect
to the servicing platform covered by this report.  Management is responsible for
the Company's compliance with those servicing criteria. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on management's assertion about the Company's compliance with
the servicing criteria based on our examination.

Our examination was concluded in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining,
on a test basis,  evidence  about the Company's  compliance  with the applicable
servicing  criteria  and  performing  such  other  procedures  as we  considered
necessary in the  circumstances.  Our examination  included testing of less than
all of the individual asset backed transactions and securities that comprise the
Platform,  testing of less than all of the servicing  activities  related to the
Platform,   and  determining   whether  the  Company  processed  those  selected
transactions  and performed  those  selected  activities in compliance  with the
servicing  criteria.  Furthermore,  our procedures  were limited to the selected
transactions and servicing activities performed by the Company during the period
covered by this report.  Our procedures  were not designed to determine  whether
errors may have  occurred  either prior to or  subsequent  to our tests that may
have  affected  the  balances or amounts  calculated  or reported by the Company
during the period  covered by this report for the selected  transactions  or any
other transactions.  We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.  Our examination does not provide a legal  determination on the

In our  opinion,  management's  assertion  that the  Company  complied  with the
afore-mentioned  servicing  criteria as of and for the year ended  December  31,
2006, for the Corporate Trust Asset Backed Securities platform is fairly stated,
in all material respects.

             Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the  Stockholder  of  JPMorgan  Chase  Bank,  National  Association:

We  have  examined   management's   assertion,   included  in  the  accompanying
Management's  Report on  Assessment  of  Compliance  with  Applicable  Servicing
Criteria  (the  "Compliance  Statement"),  that  JPMorgan  Chase Bank,  National
Association  (the "Company")  complied with the servicing  criteria set forth in
Item 1122(d) of the  Securities and Exchange  Commission's  Regulation AB, as of
and for the year ended  December  31,  2006 (the  "Reporting  Period"),  for all
publicly  offered  residential  mortgage and home equity  mortgage  asset-backed
securities  issued on or after  January 1, 2006  through  December 31, 2006 (the

Statement, which the Company has determined are not applicable to the activities
performed  by it  with  respect  to the  Platform.  Appendix  B to  management's
assertion  identifies the individual  asset-backed  transactions  and securities
defined by management as  constituting  the Platform.  Management is responsible
for the Company's compliance with the servicing criteria.  Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on management's assertion based on our examination.

Our examination was conducted in accordance with standards of the Public Company

            Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


To the Members of Avelo Mortgage, L.L.C.:

We have examined Avelo Mortgage, L.L.C.'s compliance with the servicing criteria
set forth in Item 1122(d) of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation
AB  for  the  asset-backed  securities  transactions  conducted  by GS  Mortgage
Securities  Corp.  (the  "Company") that were registered with the Securities and
Exchange  Commission  pursuant to the  Securities  Act of 1933 where the related
asset-backed  securities  were  outstanding  during the period February 24, 2006
(commencement of loan servicing) to December 31, 2006 (the "Platform") described
in the accompanying Management's Assessment Regarding Compliance with Applicable
Servicing Criteria, as of December 31, 2006 and for the period from February 24,
2006 to December 31, 2006  excluding  criteria  1122(d)(1)(i),  1122(d)(1)(iii),
1122(d)(2)(ii),    1122(d)(2)(iv),     1122(d)(3)(iii),     1122(d)(4)(i)-(iii),
1122(d)(4)(vi),  and  1122(d)(4)(xv),  which the Company has  determined are not
applicable  to the  servicing  activities  performed  by it with  respect to the
Platform.  Appendix  A  to  management's  assertion  identifies  the  individual
asset-backed  transactions and securities  defined by management as constituting
the Platform.  Management is responsible  for the Company's  compliance with the
servicing criteria. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's
compliance with the servicing criteria based on our examination.

Our examination was conducted in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining,
on a test basis,  evidence  about the Company's  compliance  with the applicable
servicing  criteria  and  performing  such  other  procedures  as we  considered
necessary in the  circumstances.  Our examination  included  testing of selected
asset-backed transactions and securities that comprise the Platform,  testing of
selected servicing  activities related to the Platform,  and determining whether
the Company  processed those selected  transactions and performed those selected
activities in compliance with the applicable servicing criteria.  Our procedures
were limited to the selected  transactions and servicing activities performed by
the Company  during the period covered by this report.  Our procedures  were not
designed to detect  noncompliance  arising  from  errors that may have  occurred
prior to or  subsequent  to our tests that may have  affected  the  balances  or
amounts  calculated or reported by the Company during the period covered by this
report.  We believe that out  examination  provides a  reasonable  basis for our
opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Company's
compliance with the servicing criteria.

Our  examination  disclosed  the  following  material   noncompliance  with  the
servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d)(2)(vii) of Regulation AB applicable
to the Company  during the period from  February 24, 2006  through  December 31,
2006.  Account  reconciliations  for all  asset-backed  securities  related bank
accounts  were not  prepared  within 30 calendar  days after the bank  statement
cutoff  date,  or  such  other  number  of  days  specified  in the  transaction
agreements as required by Item  1122(d)(2)(vii)  and reconciling  items were not
resolved within 90 days of their original  identification,  or such other number
of days specified in the transaction agreements.

In our opinion, except for the material noncompliance described in the preceding
paragraph,  Avelo Mortgage,  L.L.C. complied with the aforementioned  applicable
servicing  criteria  as of and for the period  ended  December  31, 2006 for the
asset-backed  securities  transactions conducted by GS Mortgage Securities Corp.
that were registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the
Securities  Act  of  1933  where  the  related   asset-backed   securities  were
outstanding  during the period  February 24, 2006 to December  31, 2006,  in all
material respects.

GreenPoint Mortgage Funding, Inc.

We have examined  management's  assertion included in the accompanying report of
Certification  Regarding  Compliance with Applicable  Servicing  Criteria,  that
GreenPoint  Mortgage Funding,  Inc. (the "Company")  complied with the servicing
criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of the Securities  and Exchange  Commission's

responsible for the Company's compliance with the applicable servicing criteria.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management's  assertion about the
Company's  compliance  with  the  applicable  servicing  criteria  based  on our
examination.

Our  examination  was  conducted  in  accordance  with   attestation   standards
established  by the  American  Institute  of Certified  Public  Accountants,  as
adopted by the Public Company  Accounting  Oversight  Board (United States) and,
accordingly,  included examining,  on a test basis, evidence about the Company's
compliance  with the applicable  servicing  criteria and  performing  such other
procedures  as we considered  necessary in the  circumstances.  Our  examination
included  testing of less than all of the individual  asset backed  transactions
and  securities  that  comprise  the  platform,  testing of less than all of the
servicing  activities  related to the  Platform,  and  determining  whether  the
Company  processed  those  selected  transactions  and performed  those selected
activities  in compliance  with the  servicing  criteria and as permitted by the
Interpretation  17.06 of the SEC  Division  of  Corporation  Finance  Manual  of
Publicly   Available   Telephone   Interpretations   ("Interpretation   17.06").
Furthermore,  our  procedures  were  limited to the  selected  transactions  and
servicing  activities performed by the Company during the period covered by this
report.  Our procedures  were not designed to determine  whether errors may have
occurred  either prior to or  subsequent to our tests that may have affected the
balances or amounts  calculated  or  reported  by the Company  during the period
covered by this report for the selected  transactions or any other transactions.
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 servicing criteria.

As describer in management's assertion, for servicing criteria 1122(d)(2)(i) and
1122(d)(4)(iv),   the  Company  has  engaged  various  vendors  to  perform  the
activities required by these servicing criteria. The Company has determined that
these  vendors are not  considered  a  "servicer"  as defined in Item 1101(j) of
Regulation AB, and the Company has elected to take  responsibility for assessing
compliance with the applicable  servicing criteria  applicable to each vendor as
permitted by  Interpretation  17.06. As permitted by  Interpretation  17.06, the
Company has asserted that it has policies and  procedures  in place  designed to
provide reasonable assurance that the vendors' activities comply in all material
respects  with  servicing  criteria  applicable  to each vendor.  The Company is
solely  responsible for determining  that it meets the SEC requirements to apply
Interpretation  17.06 for the vendors and related  criteria as  described in its
assertion,  and we  performed  no  procedures  with  respect  to  the  Company's
eligibility to apply Interpretation 17.06.

Our examination  disclosed the following  material  noncompliance with servicing
criteria  1122(d)(1)(i),  1122(d)(2)(iv),  and 1122(d)(3)(ii)  applicable to the
Company's  platform  covered by this report  during the year ended  December 31,
2006.  1122(d)(1)(i)  - There were no  policies  and  procedures  instituted  to
monitor the  performance  or other triggers and events of defaults in accordance
with the transaction agreements;  1122(d)(2)(iv) - The related accounts for each
transaction  were not  separately  maintained  as set  forth in the  transaction
agreements;  and, 1122(d)(3)(ii) - Amounts due to investors were not remitted in
accordance with the timeframes set forth in the transaction agreements.

The  information  in the  Certification  Regarding  Compliance  with  Applicable
Servicing  Criteria in Item 2 of Appendix B (i.e.,  remediation  procedures)  is
presented by the Company for information purposes. Such information has not been
subjected to the procedures applied in our examination of management's assertion
as described above, and accordingly, we express no opinion on it.

In our opinion,  except for the material  noncompliance  described in the fourth
paragraph,   the  Company  complied,   in  all  material   respects,   with  the
aforementioned  servicing criteria,  including servicing criteria  1122(d)(2)(i)
and  1122(d)(4)(iv)  for which compliance is determined based on  Interpretation
17.06 as described above, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006 for the
residential mortgage loan servicing platform.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To PHH Mortgage Corporation:

We have examined PHH Mortgage  Corporation's  (the "Company's")  compliance with
the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122 (d) of the Securities and Exchange
Commission's Regulation AB for PHH Mortgage Corporation's Regulation AB Platform
(the "Platform") described in the accompanying Management's Report on Assessment
of Compliance with Regulation AB Servicing Criteria as of and for the year ended
December  31,  2006,   excluding   criteria  1122   (d)(l)(iii),   (d)(3)(i)(C),
(d)(4)(ii),  and (d)(4)(xv),  which management has determined are not applicable
to the  activities  performed  by the  Company  with  respect  to the  Platform.
Management  is  responsible  for the  Company's  compliance  with the  servicing
criteria.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's
compliance with the servicing criteria based on our examination.

Our  examination  was  conducted  in  accordance  with   attestation   standards
established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants as adopted
by  the  Public  Company   Accounting   Oversight  Board  (United  States)  and,
accordingly,  included examining,  on a test basis, evidence about the Company's
compliance with the applicable  servicing criteria,  including tests on a sample
basis of the servicing  activities related to the Platform,  determining whether
the Company performed those selected activities in compliance with the servicing
criteria during the specified  period and performing such other procedures as we
considered  necessary  in the  circumstances.  Our  procedures  were  limited to
selected servicing activities performed by the Company during the period covered
by this report and,  accordingly,  such samples may not have included  servicing
activities  related to each asset-backed  transaction  included in the Platform.
Further,  an  examination is not designed to detect  noncompliance  arising from
errors that may have occurred prior to the period  specified above that may have
affected the balances or amounts  calculated  or reported by the Company  during
the period covered by this report.  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 servicing criteria.

As described in management's assertion,  for servicing criteria 1122 (d)(4)(vii)
and (d)(4)(xi),  the Company has engaged a vendor to perform certain  activities
required by this servicing criteria. The Company has determined that this vendor
is not  considered a "servicer" as defined in Item 1101(j) of Regulation AB, and
the Company 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,  the  Company  has  asserted  that  it has  policies  and
procedures in place designed to provide  assurance that the vendor's  activities
comply in all material respects with the servicing  criteria  applicable to this
vendor.  The Company is solely responsible for determining that it meets the SEC
requirements to apply  Interpretation  17.06 for the vendor and related criteria
as described in its  assertion,  and we performed no procedures  with respect to
the Company's determination of its eligibility to use Interpretation 17.06.

Our examination  disclosed the following  material  noncompliance  with criteria
applicable to the Company during the year ended December 31, 2006:

Standard            Description

1122(d)(l)(i)       The Company has not  instituted  policies and  procedures to
                    specifically monitor performance or other triggers or events
                    of default stated in the transaction agreements

1122(d)(1)(iv)      During  the  months  of July,  August,  and  September,  the
                    Company's  minimum  coverage  requirement  exceeded its $160
                    million fidelity bond by amounts ranging up to approximately
                    $1.3 million.  Effective  September 27, 2006,  the Company's
                    fidelity bond was increased to $170 million.

1122(d)(3)(i)(A)    The Company did not  maintain or provide one of the required
                    monthly reports stated in the transaction  agreements during
                    the year

1122(d)(3)(i)(D)    The Company did not perform  procedures  to agree the unpaid
                    principal  balance  and  number  of  loans  serviced  by the
                    Company with that of the investor and trustees

In our opinion, except for the material noncompliance described in the preceding
paragraph,   the  Company  complied,   in  all  material   respects,   with  the
aforementioned  applicable servicing criteria for the PHH Mortgage Corporation's
Regulation AB Platform as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholder
of SunTrust Mortgage, Inc.:

We have  examined  SunTrust  Mortgage,  Inc.'s  compliance  with  the  servicing
criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of the Securities  and Exchange  Commission's
Regulation  AB for all  residential  mortgage loan  securitization  transactions
occurring after December 31, 2005 (the Platform)  described in the  accompanying
Management's Assertion on Compliance with Regulation AB Servicing Criteria as of
December  31,  2006 and for the year then  ended,  as set forth in Appendix A to
Management's  Assertion  with respect to the  Platform.  Management's  assertion
identifies all residential mortgage loan securitization  transactions  occurring
after December 31, 2005 as constituting the Platform.  Management is responsible
for the Company's compliance with the servicing criteria.  Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on the Company's  compliance  with the servicing  criteria
based on our examination.

Our examination was conducted in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining,
on a test basis,  evidence  about the Company's  compliance  with the applicable
servicing  criteria  and  performing  such  other  procedures  as we  considered
necessary in the  circumstances.  Our examination  included  testing of selected
asset- backed transactions and securities that comprise the Platform, testing of
selected servicing  activities related to the Platform,  and determining whether
the Company  processed those selected  transactions and performed those selected
activities in compliance with the applicable servicing criteria.  Our procedures
were limited to the selected  transactions and servicing activities performed by
the Company  during the period covered by this report.  Our procedures  were not
designed to detect  noncompliance  arising  from  errors that may have  occurred
prior to or  subsequent  to our tests that may have  affected  the  balances  or
amounts  calculated or reported by the Company during the period covered by this
report.  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 servicing criteria.

Our  examination  disclosed  the  following  material   noncompliance  with  the
servicing  criteria  set  forth  in  Items  1122(d)(1)(i),   1122(d)(2)(i),  and
1122(d)(2)(iv)  of Regulation AB applicable to the Company during the year ended
December 31, 2006.  Specifically,  SunTrust Mortgage, Inc. did not (i) institute
policies and procedures to monitor any  performance or other triggers and events
of default in  accordance  with the  transaction  agreements as required by Item
1122(d)(1)(i);  (ii)  deposit  payments  on pool  assets  into  the  appropriate
custodial  bank  accounts  and related bank  clearing  accounts no more than two
business  days after  receipt,  or such other  number of days  specified  in the
transaction  agreements as required by Item 1122(d)(2)(i);  and (iii) separately
maintain  the  related  accounts  for  the  transaction  as  set  forth  in  the
transaction agreements, as required by 1122(d)(2)(iv).

In our opinion, except for the material noncompliance described in the preceding
paragraph,  SunTrust Mortgage, Inc., complied with the aforementioned applicable
servicing  criteria  as of and for the  year  ended  December  31,  2006 for all
residential mortgage loan securitization  transactions  occurring after December
31, 2005, in all material respects.

             Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

We have examined management's assertion, included in the accompanying Report on
Assessment of Compliance with Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation AB
Servicing Criteria, that ZC Sterling Insurance Agency, Inc. (the Company)
complied with certain servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122 (d) of the
Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation AB for the ZC Sterling
Integrated Product Solution (ZIPS) hazard insurance outsourcing Platform
(Platform) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006. The Company has
determined that only certain servicing criteria 1122 (d) 1(iv), 1122 (d) 2 (vi),
1122 (d) 4(xi), 1122 (d) 4 (xii), and 1122 (d) 4 (xiii) are applicable to the
activities performed by them with respect to the Platform covered by this
report. The Company has determined that the remaining servicing criteria set
forth in Item 1122 (d) of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation AB
are not applicable to the activities performed by them with respect to the
Platform covered by this report. See Appendix A of management's assertion for
the Platform covered by this report. Management is responsible for the Company's
compliance with those servicing criteria. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on management's assertion about the Company's compliance with the
servicing criteria based on our examination.

Our examination was conducted in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (placecountry-regionUnited States) and, accordingly,
included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Company's compliance
with the applicable servicing criteria and performing such other procedures as
we considered necessary in the circumstances. Our examination included testing
of less than all of the servicing activities related to the Platform, and
determining whether the Company performed those selected activities in
compliance with the servicing criteria. Furthermore, our procedures were limited
to the servicing activities performed by the Company during the period covered
by this report. Our procedures were not designed to determine whether errors may
have occurred either prior to or subsequent to our tests that may have affected
the balances or amounts calculated or reported by the Company during the period
covered by this report for the Platform. 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 servicing criteria.

In our opinion, management's assertion that the Company complied with the
aforementioned servicing criteria as of and for the year ended date December 31,
2006 for the ZIPS Platform is fairly stated, in all material respects.

Annual Compliance Statement

1. A review has been  completed of Avelo  Mortgage,  LLC's  ("Avelo")  servicing
activities and its performance  under the servicing  agreement during the period
from  February 24, 2006 through  December  31, 2006.  This review was  completed
under my supervision.

2. To the best of my knowledge, based on such review, Avelo has fulfilled all of
its  obligations  under  the  agreement  in all  material  respects,  except  as
described in the item below:

For a period  of time in 2006,  bank  accounts  were not  reconciled  in  strict
compliance with Section 1122(d)(2)(vii) of Reg AB which provides as follows:

Reconciliations are prepared on a monthly basis for all asset-backed securities,
related bank accounts,  including  custodial  accounts and related bank clearing
accounts.  These reconciliations are (A) mathematically  accurate;  (B) prepared
within 30 calendar  days after the bank  statement  cutoff  date,  or such other
number  of days  specified  in the  transaction  agreements;  (C)  reviewed  and
approved by someone other than the person who prepared the  reconciliation;  and
(D) contain  explanations for reconciling  items.  These  reconciling  items are
resolved within 90 calendar days of their original identification, or such other
number of days specified in the transaction agreements.

The bank account  reconciliations  were current as of December 31, 2006,  and no
issues were found or arose from the delay in reconciling the bank accounts.

I certify this information to be true and correct to the best of my ability.

SunTrust Mortgage

JPMorgan - Reference attached Schedule "A" for deal ID's

     In  connection  with the loans  serviced by SunTrust  Mortgage,  Inc.  (the
"Company")  for  JPMorgan,  I,  the  undersigned  officer,  hereby  certify  the
following as of December 31, 2006:

(i)  The Company  conducted a review of its  activities  during the  immediately
     preceding  calendar  year  (or  applicable  portion  thereof)  and  of  its
     performance under the Servicing Agreement(s)/Purchase and Sale Agreement(s)
     and any applicable Reconstitution  Agreement(s) (together, the "Transaction
     Agreements") during such period has been made under my supervision; and

(ii) To the  best  of my  knowledge,  based  on such  review,  the  Company  has
     fulfilled all of its obligations  under the  Transaction  Agreements in all
     material  respects  throughout  such calendar year (or  applicable  portion
     thereof),  except  that as of  January 1, 2006,  the  Company  did not have
     procedures for monitoring  compliance with requirements as specified in the
     applicable transaction agreements governing SEC Regulation AB transactions.
     To address the absence of such  procedures,  the Company's  management  has
     undertaken and completed the following  actions:  (a) completed a review of
     each  Transaction  Agreement and identified if there was specific  language
     affecting any of the Servicing  Criteria  outlined in Section 1122;  (b) to
     the degree that the Transaction  Agreements  required  specific  procedures
     related to the servicing  criteria,  the Company's  Reference Point Library
     (where all  policies and  procedures  are  maintained)  was updated to this
     effect;  (c)  for  each  pool,  a  Central  Matrix  was  completed  (and is
     maintained on a current basis)  identifying  which  Transaction  Agreements
     control each pool;  and (d)  established a monthly review process where the
     Company's  managers  review key factors of  performance  under  Transaction
     Agreements and respond to a questionnaire  indicating  compliance with such
     factors.

     IN  WITNESS  WHEREOF,  I do hereby  certify  the  foregoing  as of the date
hereof.
