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.

Central Mortgage Company (the "Company") has reported an instance of material
non-compliance with the servicing criteria set forth in 1122(d)(4)(x)(B) of
Regulation AB applicable to the Company during the year ended December 31,
2007. Item 1122(d)(4)(x)(B) requires that regarding any funds held in trust for
an obligor (such as escrow accounts): (B) interest on such funds is paid, or
credited, to obligors in accordance with applicable mortgage loan documents and
state laws. It was noted that in 4 states; Oregon, Wisconsin, Maine and New
Hampshire; that the interest rate used to credit interest to obligor(s)' trust
funds was inaccurate. Additional monitoring of the states' published interest
rates has been implemented with additional emphasis on the effective change
date and accuracy.



Item 1123 of Regulation AB, Servicer Compliance Statement.

The servicer compliance statements are attached hereto under Item 15.


Although the above-referenced material instance of noncompliance with respect
to Item 1122(d)(4)(x)(B) in the Central Mortgage Company ("CMC") report on
assessment of compliance with the servicing criteria was material to the
activities of CMC on a platform level, CMC indicated that such instance of
noncompliance was not material to the performance of CMC in its capacity as
servicer under the pooling and servicing agreement related to the securities
issued by the Issuing Entity. Accordingly, the servicer compliance statement of
CMC was appropriately unqualified.
