Ms. Alice M. Peterson Ms. Cynthia K. Duncan Vice President and Treasurer Trust Officer Sears, Roebuck and Co. as Servicer Continental Bank, National Sears Tower Association as Trustee Chicago, Illinois 60684 231 South La Salle Street Chicago, Illinois 60697
We have applied the procedures listed below to the accounting records of Sears, Roebuck and Co. ("Sears") relating to the servicing procedures performed by Sears as Servicer under Section 3.06(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the "Agreement") for the following Trusts:
Date of Pooling and Trust Servicing Agreement
Sears Credit Account Trust 1989E November 13, 1989 Sears Credit Account Trust 1990A January 12, 1990 Sears Credit Account Trust 1990B February 22, 1990 Sears Credit Account Trust 1990C July 31, 1990 Sears Credit Account Trust 1990D October 15, 1990 Sears Credit Account Trust 1990E December 1, 1990
It is understood that this report is solely for your information and is not to be referred to or distributed for any purpose to anyone other than Continental Bank, National Association as Trustee, Investor Certificateholders or the management of Sears. The procedures we performed are as follows:
Compared the mathematical calculations of each amount set forth in each monthly certificate forwarded by the Servicer, pursuant to Section 3.04(b) of the Agreement, during the calendar year 1993 to the Servicer's computer-generated Portfolio Monitoring and Monthly Cash Flow Allocations Report. We found such amounts to be in agreement.
February 11, 1994 Ms. Alice M. Peterson Ms. Cynthia K. Duncan Vice President and Treasurer Trust Officer Sears, Roebuck and Co. as Servicer Continental Bank, National Association as Trustee
Because the above procedures do not constitute an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we do not express an opinion on any of the items referred to above.
As a result of the procedures performed, no matters came to our attention that caused us to believe that the amounts in the monthly certificates require adjustment. Had we performed additional procedures or had we conducted an audit of the monthly certificates in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, matters might have come to our attention that would have been reported to you. This report relates only to the items specified above and does not extend to any financial statements of Sears taken as a whole.
