                         Report of Independent Auditors

The Board of Directors and Stockholder
Financial Guaranty Insurance Company

We have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets of  Financial
Guaranty  Insurance  Company and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31,
2004 and 2003, and the related consolidated statements of income,  stockholder's
equity and cash flows for the year ended  December 31, 2004 and the periods from
December  18, 2003 through  December 31, 2003,  and from January 1, 2003 through
December 17, 2003.  These  financial  statements are the  responsibility  of the
Company's  management.  Our  responsibility  is to  express  an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable  assurance about whether the financial  statements are free
of material  misstatement.  An audit includes  consideration of internal control
over  financial  reporting as a basis for designing  audit  procedures  that are
appropriate  in the  circumstances,  but not for the  purpose of  expressing  an
opinion on the  effectiveness  of the Company's  internal control over financial
reporting.  Accordingly,  we express  no such  opinion.  An audit also  includes
examining,  on a test basis,  evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the  financial   statements,   assessing  the  accounting  principles  used  and
significant  estimates made by management  and evaluating the overall  financial
statement  presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable  basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects,  the consolidated financial position of the Company as of
December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the consolidated results of their operations and
their cash flows for the year  ended  December  31,  2004 and the  periods  from
December  18, 2003  through  December  31, 2003 and from January 1, 2003 through
December 17, 2003, in conformity with accounting  principles  generally accepted
in the United States.

procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of

1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

Financial   Guaranty   Insurance  Company  (the  "Company")  is  a  wholly-owned
subsidiary of FGIC  Corporation  (the  "Parent").  The Parent was a wholly-owned
subsidiary of General Electric Capital  Corporation ("GE Capital").  The Company
provides  financial guaranty insurance for public finance and structured finance
obligations.  The Company began insuring public finance  obligations in 1984 and
structured  finance  obligations  in 1988. The Company's  financial  strength is
rated "Aaa" by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's"),  "AAA" by Standard &
Poor's Rating Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill  Companies,  Inc. ("S&P"),
and "AAA" by Fitch Ratings, Inc. ("Fitch"). The Company is licensed to engage in
financial  guaranty  insurance in all 50 states,  the District of Columbia,  the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and, through a branch, in the United Kingdom.

During 2004, FGIC  capitalized two  wholly-owned  subsidiaries  FGIC UK Services

the Cypress  Group L.L.C.  ("Cypress")  and  affiliates  of CIVC  Partners  L.P.
("CIVC"),  collectively  the "Investor  Group",  completed the acquisition  (the
"Transaction")  of  FGIC  Corporation  from  a  subsidiary  of GE  Capital  in a
transaction  valued  at  approximately   $2,200,000.   At  the  closing  of  the
Transaction,  the Investor Group, acting through an affiliate, paid GE Capital a
cash  purchase  price of  approximately  $1,600,000,  which was funded by equity
investments by the Investor Group and borrowings of approximately $227,300 under
a bridge loan  facility  with an  affiliate of Bank of America  Corporation.  In

dividends and GE Capital retained 2,346 shares of Senior  Preferred  Manditorily

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated  financial  statements  include the accounts of the Company and
its wholly-owned  subsidiaries.  All significant intercompany balances have been
eliminated.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally  accepted in the United States  ("GAAP")  requires  management to make
estimates  and  assumptions  that affect the amounts  reported in the  financial
statements and the  accompanying  notes.  Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

The accompanying  financial  statements have been prepared on the basis of GAAP,
which differs in certain  respects from the accounting  practices  prescribed or
permitted by the New York Department of Insurance (the  "Department")  (see Note
4).

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company's significant accounting policies are as follows:

A. INVESTMENTS

The   Company   classifies   all   of   its   fixed   maturity   securities   as
available-for-sale,  which  is  recorded  on  the  trade  date  at  fair  value.
Unrealized gains and losses are recorded as a separate  component of accumulated
other  comprehensive   income,  net  of  applicable  income  taxes.   Short-term
investments are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.

Bond  discounts  and  premiums  are  amortized  over the  remaining  term of the
securities.  Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments  are determined
based on the specific identification method.

Securities which have been determined to be other-than-temporarily  impaired are
reduced to realizable  value,  establishing  a new cost basis,  with a charge to
realized loss at such date.

B. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The  Company   considers  all  bank  deposits,   highly  liquid  securities  and
certificates  of deposit with  maturities of three months or less at the date of
purchase  to be cash  equivalents.  These cash  equivalents  are carried at cost
which approximates fair value.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

C. PREMIUM REVENUE RECOGNITION

Premiums are received either up-front or over time on an installment  basis. The
premium  collection  method is  determined  at the time the  policy  is  issued.
Up-front premiums are paid in full at the inception of the policy and are earned
over the  period of risk in  proportion  to the total  amount of  principal  and
interest  outstanding.  Installment  premiums  are  collected  periodically  and
premiums are reflected in income pro rata over the period covered by the premium
payment.  Unearned  premiums  represent the portion of premiums received that is
applicable to future periods on policies in force. When an obligation insured by
the Company has been refunded prior to the end of the expected  policy  coverage
period,  any remaining  unearned premium is recognized at that time. A refunding
occurs when an insured  obligation is repaid or fully  defeased  prior to stated
maturing.  Ceded premiums are earned in a manner  consistent with the underlying
policies.

D. POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS

Policy  acquisition  costs include only those  expenses that relate  directly to
premium  production.  Such costs include  compensation of employees  involved in
marketing, underwriting and policy issuance functions, rating agency fees, state
premium taxes and certain other  expenses.  In  determining  policy  acquisition
costs,  the Company must  estimate and allocate the  percentage of its costs and
expenses  that are  attributable  to premium  production,  rather  than to other
activities.  Policy  acquisition  costs,  net of  ceding  commission  income  on
premiums  ceded to  reinsurers,  are deferred and  amortized  over the period in
which the related  premiums  are earned.  Anticipated  loss and loss  adjustment
expenses and  maintenance  costs and net  investment  income are  considered  in
determining the recoverability of acquisition costs.

E. LOSS AND LOSS ADJUSTMENT EXPENSES

Provision for loss and loss adjustment  expenses includes principal and interest
and other  payments due under  insured risks at the balance sheet date for which
an actual  payment  default has occurred or when a payment  default is probable.
The loss reserves that are established  fall into two categories:  case reserves
and  watch  list  reserves.  Case  reserves  are  established  for the  value of
estimated losses on particular insured obligations that are

                             (Dollars in thousands)

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

presently or likely to be in payment  default at the balance sheet date, and for
which  the  future  loss is  probable  and can be  reasonably  estimated.  These
reserves  represent  an  estimate  of  the  present  value  of  the  anticipated
shortfall, net of reinsurance,  between (1) payments on insured obligations plus
anticipated  loss adjustment  expenses and (2)  anticipated  cash flow from, and
proceeds to be received on sales of any  collateral  supporting  the  obligation
and/or other anticipated  recoveries.  The discount rate used in calculating the
net present value of estimated  losses is based upon the risk-free  rate for the
average  maturity of the  applicable  bond  sector.  As of December 31, 2004 and
2003,  discounted  case-basis  loss and loss  adjustment  expense  reserves were
$15,700 and $18,900,  respectively.  Loss and loss adjustment  expenses included
amounts  discounted at an approximate  interest rate of 4.5% in 2004 and 4.4% in
2003.  The amount of the  discount at December  31, 2004 and 2003 was $2,500 and
$3,400, respectively.

The Company  establishes  watch list  reserves to recognize  the  potential  for
claims  against the Company on insured  obligations  that are not  presently  in
payment default,  but which have migrated to an impaired level, where there is a
substantial increased probability of default. These reserves reflect an estimate
of probable loss given evidence of impairment,  and a reasonable estimate of the
amount of loss given default.  The methodology for  establishing and calculating
the  watch  list  reserve  relies  on a  categorization  and  assessment  of the
probability of default,  and loss severity given  default,  of the  specifically
identified impaired obligations on the watch list based on historical trends and
other  factors.  The watch list  reserve is  adjusted  as  necessary  to reflect
changes in the loss expectation inherent in the group of impaired credits. As of
December  31,  2004  and  2003,   such   reserves   were  $23,500  and  $21,600,
respectively.

The reserve for loss and loss  adjustment  expenses are reviewed  regularly  and
updated  based on claim  payments and the results of ongoing  surveillance.  The
result of the Company's  ongoing insured  portfolio  surveillance is to identify
all impaired  obligations and thereby provide a materially complete  recognition
of losses for each accounting  period.  The reserves are necessarily  based upon
estimates  and  subjective  judgments  about the outcome of future  events,  and
actual results will likely differ from these estimates.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

F. INCOME TAXES

Deferred  tax  assets  and   liabilities  are  recognized  for  the  future  tax
consequences   attributable  to  differences  between  the  financial  statement
carrying  amounts of existing assets and  liabilities  and their  respective tax
bases.  These temporary  differences  relate principally to unrealized gains and
losses  on  available-for-sale   fixed  maturity  securities,   premium  revenue
recognition,  deferred  acquisition costs,  discount on loss and loss adjustment
reserves and certain loss reserves,  alternative  minimum tax (AMT) credit carry
forwards and profit commission. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
using  enacted  tax rates  expected  to apply to taxable  income in the years in
which those temporary  differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The
effect  on  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  of a change in tax rates is
recognized  in income in the period  that  includes  the  enactment  date of the
change.

Financial  guaranty  insurance  companies  are  permitted to deduct from taxable
income,  subject to certain limitations,  amounts added to statutory contingency
reserves (see Note 4). The amounts  deducted must be included in taxable  income
upon their  release  from the  reserves.  The  amounts  deducted  are allowed as
deductions  from  taxable  income  only  to  the  extent  that  U.S.  Government
non-interest  bearing  tax and loss  bonds are  purchased  and held in an amount
equal to the tax benefit attributable to such deductions.

G. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property  and  equipment  consists  of  office  furniture,   fixtures,  computer
equipment  and software and leasehold  improvements,  which are reported at cost
less  accumulated  depreciation.  Office  furniture and fixtures are depreciated
straight-line over five years.  Leasehold  improvements are amortized over their
estimated  service  life or over the life of the lease,  whichever  is  shorter.
Computer  equipment and software are depreciated  over three years.  Maintenance
and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

H. GOODWILL

Effective  January 1, 2002,  FGIC  Corporation  adopted  Statement  of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets ("SFAS 142").
Under  SFAS  142,  goodwill  is no longer  amortized  but  rather is tested  for
impairment at least annually.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

In accounting  for the  Transaction  in 2003,  the Company has applied  purchase
accounting as prescribed by Statement of Financial accounting Standards No. 141,
Business  Combinations ("SFAS 141") and Securities and Exchange Commission Staff
Accounting  Bulletin 54. Under this  accounting  method,  the purchase price has
been pushed down into the accompanying financial statements, with the difference
between  the  purchase  price  and the sum of the  fair  value of  tangible  and
identifiable  intangible  assets acquired less liabilities  assumed resulting in
negative  goodwill of $27,300 at December 18, 2003. In accordance  with SFAS 141
the Company reduced the value assigned to  non-financial  assets,  the remaining
negative  goodwill  of $13,852  was  recorded  as an  extraordinary  gain in the
consolidated statement of income. In 1989, when FGIC Corporation was acquired by
GE Capital,  FGIC  Corporation  did not push down the purchase price and related
goodwill to the Company.

As a result of the purchase accounting effective on December 18, 2003, the basis
of the assets and liabilities has changed,  which  necessitates the presentation
of Predecessor  Company and the Successor  Company  columns in the  Consolidated
Statements of Income, Stockholder's Equity and Cash Flows.

I. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

The Company has an established foreign branch and two wholly-owned  subsidiaries
in the United  Kingdom and insured  exposure  from a former branch in France and
determined  that the  functional  currencies  of these  entities are their local
currencies.  Accordingly,  the assets and liabilities of these foreign  entities
are translated into U.S.  dollars at the rates of exchange  existing at December
31, 2004 and 2003 and revenues and expenses are  translated  at average  monthly
exchange rates.  The cumulative  translation  gain at December 31, 2004 and 2003
was  $4,086  and  $0,  respectively,  net of  tax  expense  of  $2,200  and  $0,
respectively,  and is  reported as a separate  component  of  accumulated  other
comprehensive income in the consolidated statement of stockholders' equity.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

J. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

In January 2003, the FASB issued Financial  Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation
of Variable  Interest  Entities ("FIN 46"), which the Company adopted on July 1,
2003.  FIN 46's  consolidation  criteria  are based upon  analysis  of risks and
rewards,  not control,  and represent a significant and complex  modification of
previous  accounting  principles.  FIN 46 represents an accounting  change not a
change in the underlying economics  associated with the transactions,  which may
be affected by FIN 46. FIN 46 clarifies the  consolidation  criteria for certain
entities  in  which  equity  investors  do not  have  the  characteristics  of a
controlling  financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the
entity to finance  its  activities  without  additional  subordinated  financial
support from other parties.  FIN 46 requires  variable  interest  entities to be
consolidated by their primary  beneficiaries  if the entities do not effectively
disperse  risk  among  parties   involved.   Variable   interest  entities  that
effectively disperse risks will not be consolidated. FIN 46 requires disclosures
for entities that have either a primary or  significant  variable  interest in a
variable interest entity.

As a  part  of  its  structured  finance  business,  the  Company  insures  debt
obligations or certificates issued by special purposes entities. At December 31,
2004, the Company had $4,910 of gross principal outstanding related to insurance
contracts issued to commercial paper conduits--variable  interest entities under
FIN  46--which  the Company does not believe  requires  consolidation  but which
requires disclosure.  With respect to the remainder of the municipal finance and
structured  finance   transactions   insured,  the  Company  has  evaluated  the
transactions,  and does not believe any such transactions require  consolidation
or disclosure under FIN 46.

During 2004, FGIC arranged the issuance of contingent preferred trust securities
by a group of special  purpose  Trusts.  These  Trusts are  considered  variable
interest  entities  under FIN 46,  however,  the Company is not  considered  the
primary beneficiary and therefore is not required to consolidate the Trusts (see
Note 13).

4. STATUTORY ACCOUNTING PRACTICES

The  financial  statements  are prepared on the basis of GAAP,  which differs in
certain  respects  from  accounting  practices  prescribed  or  permitted by the
Department.   The  National  Association  of  Insurance  Commissioners  ("NAIC")
approved the codification project ("Codification") effective January 1, 2001 and
the Department adopted certain but not all provisions of Codification.

The   following   are  the   significant   differences   between  the  Company's
statutory-basis accounting practices and GAAP:

(a)   premiums are earned directly in proportion to the scheduled  principal and
      interest  payments  rather than in proportion  to the total  principal and
      interest outstanding at any point in time under GAAP;
(b)   policy  acquisition  costs are charged to current  operations  as incurred
      rather than as related premiums are earned under GAAP;
(c)   a contingency  reserve is computed on the basis of statutory  requirements
      for  the  security  of  all  policyholders,  regardless  of  whether  loss
      contingencies  actually  exist,  whereas  under  GAAP,  a reserve  loss is
      established based on an ultimate estimate of potential claim payments;
(d)   certain  assets  designated as  non-admitted  assets are charged  directly
      against surplus but are reflected as assets under GAAP, if recoverable;
(e)   deferred  tax assets are limited to 1) the amount of federal  income taxes
      paid in prior  years that can be  recovered  through  loss carry backs for
      existing  temporary  differences that reverse by the end of the subsequent
      calendar  year,  plus 2) the lesser of the  remaining  gross  deferred tax
      assets  expected to be realized  within one year of the balance sheet date
      or 10% of capital and surplus  excluding any net deferred tax assets,  EDP
      equipment and operating  software and any net positive  goodwill,  plus 3)
      the amount of  remaining  gross  deferred  tax  assets  that can be offset
      against  existing gross deferred tax liabilities.  The remaining  deferred
      tax assets are  non-admitted.  Deferred  taxes do not include  amounts for
      state  income  taxes.  Under GAAP,  state income taxes are included in the
      computation  of deferred  taxes,  a deferred tax asset is recorded for the
      amount of gross  deferred  tax assets  expected  to be  realized in future
      years,  and a valuation  allowance is established  for deferred tax assets
      not realizable.

4.    STATUTORY ACCOUNTING PRACTICES (CONTINUED)

(f)   purchases of tax and loss bonds are  reflected as admitted  assets;  while
      under GAAP they are recorded as federal income tax payments;
(g)   all fixed income  investments are carried at amortized cost rather than at
      fair value for securities classified as available-for-sale under GAAP;
(h)   profit   commissions   are   recognized  as  received   while  under  GAAP
      management's  best  estimate  of the  Company's  ultimate  recoverable  is
      accrued;
(i)   case loss  reserves are  generally  discounted  at the average  investment
      portfolio  yield for statutory  purposes and at the  risk-free  rate under
      GAAP; and
(j)   for statutory reporting, the financial statements for FGIC are prepared on
      a stand  alone  basis,  and not  consolidated  with  its two  wholly-owned
      subsidiaries.

Statutory-basis  surplus  of the  Company  at  December  31,  2004  and 2003 was
$1,172,600 and $1,153,500,  respectively.  Statutory-basis net income (loss) for
the year ended  December 31, 2004, for the period from December 18, 2003 through
December  31, 2003,  from January 1, 2003 through  December 17, 2003 and for the
year ended  December 31, 2002 was $144,100  ($1,669),  $180,091,  and  $205,476,
respectively.

5. INVESTMENTS

Investments  in fixed  maturity  securities  carried at fair value of $4,049 and
$3,900 as of December  31,  2004 and 2003,  respectively,  were on deposit  with
various regulatory authorities as required by law.

The unrealized losses in the Company's  investments were caused by interest rate
increases. The Company evaluated the credit rating of these securities and noted
no deterioration. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes
in interest rates and not credit quality and because the Company has the ability
and intent to hold these investments  until a recovery of fair value,  which may
be maturity,  the Company did not consider  these  investments  to be other than
temporarily impaired at December 31, 2004.

The amortized cost and fair values of investments in fixed maturity  securities,
available-for-sale at December 31, 2004, by contractual maturity date, are shown
below.  Expected  maturities  may differ  from  contractual  maturities  because
borrowers may have the right to call or prepay  obligations with or without call
or prepayment penalties.

6. INCOME TAXES

For the 2003 period ending on the closing date of the  Transaction,  the Company
filed its federal tax return as part of the  consolidated  return of GE Capital.
Under the tax sharing agreement with GE Capital, tax is allocated to the Company
based upon its respective  contributions  to  consolidated  net income.  For the
period subsequent to the closing date of the sale transaction, the Company filed
its own consolidated federal return with FGIC Corporation.

The Company's  effective  federal income tax rate is less than the corporate tax
rate on  ordinary  income  of  35%,  primarily  due to  tax-exempt  interest  on
municipal investments.

The  following  is a  reconciliation  of federal  income  taxes  computed at the
statutory rate and the provision for federal income taxes:

The Company's  2003 net operating  loss carry forwards of $13,400 was completely
utilized in 2004. Based upon the level of historical taxable income, projections
of future  taxable  income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are
deductible and the estimated  reversal of future taxable temporary  differences,
the  Company  believes  it is more  likely  than  not that it will  realize  the
benefits of these  deductible  differences  and has not  established a valuation
allowance  at December  31,  2004 and 2003.  In the  opinion of  management,  an
adequate  provision has been made for any  additional  taxes that may become due
pending any future examinations by tax authorities.

7. REINSURANCE

Reinsurance  is the  commitment  by one  insurance  company (the  reinsurer)  to
reimburse another insurance company (the ceding company) for a specified portion
of the  insurance  risks  under  policies  insured  by  the  ceding  company  in
consideration for a portion of the related premiums received. The ceding company
typically will receive a ceding  commission from the reinsurer to cover costs of
underwriting and acquiring the business.

The Company uses  reinsurance  to increase its capacity to write  insurance  for
obligations  of large,  frequent  issuers,  to meet  internal,  rating agency or
regulatory  single risk limits,  to diversify  risk and to reduce capital needs.
The Company currently arranges reinsurance on only a facultative (transaction by
transaction)  basis.  Prior to 2003,  the  Company  also had treaty  reinsurance
agreements  primarily for public finance  business that provided  coverage for a
specified  portion of the  insured  risk under all  qualifying  policies  issued
during the term of the treaty.

The Company  seeks to place  reinsurance  with  financially  strong  reinsurance
companies  since, as a primary  insurer,  the Company is required to fulfill all
its obligations to policyholders  even in cases where reinsurers fail to perform
their  obligations  under  the  various  reinsurance  agreements.   The  Company
regularly monitors the financial condition of its reinsurers.  Under most of the
Company's reinsurance agreements,  the Company has the right to reassume all the
exposure ceded to a reinsurer (and receive all the remaining  unearned  premiums
ceded) in the event of a significant  ratings  downgrade of the reinsurer or the
occurrence  of certain other special  cancellation  events.  In certain of these
cases, the Company also has the right to impose additional ceding commissions.

In recent years, a number of the Company's  reinsurers  have been  downgraded by
the  rating  agencies,   thereby  reducing  the  financial   benefits  of  using
reinsurance  under the rating agency capital adequacy models because the Company
must allocate additional capital to the related reinsured exposure.  The Company
still receives statutory credit for this reinsurance.

In  connection  with such a downgrade,  the Company  reassumed  $4,959,  $6,300,
$14,300, and $2,600, of ceded premiums for the year ended December 31, 2004, the
periods from December 18, 2003 through  December 31, 2003,  from January 1, 2003
through   December  17,  2003  and  for  the  year  ended   December  31,  2002,
respectively, from the reinsurers.

The Company holds collateral under reinsurance agreements in the form of letters
of credit  and trust  agreements  in various  amounts  with  various  reinsurers
totaling  $56,700  at  December  31,  2004  that can be drawn on in the event of
default by the reinsurer.

8. LOSS AND LOSS ADJUSTMENT EXPENSES (CONTINUED)

During the year ended  December 31, 2004,  current year case reserves  increased
related to several structured finance transactions of one particular issuer.

During the period from  January 1, 2003 through  December 17, 2003,  the overall
decrease  in case  reserves  was driven by a reduction  in  reserves  previously
established on several structured finance transactions of one particular issuer.
In 2002, there was adverse  development on such transactions and a determination
was made by management  that several other  transactions  related to that issuer
also required case  reserves.  Prior to the  Transaction,  rather than watchlist
reserves,  the Company  established  portfolio reserves based upon the aggregate
average net par outstanding of the Company's  insured Mortgage Backed Securities
portfolio.

9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Prior to the Transaction,  the Company had various  agreements with subsidiaries
of General Electric Company and GE Capital. These business transactions included
certain  payroll  and  office  expenses,   investment  fees  pertaining  to  the
management of the Company's investment portfolio and  telecommunication  service
charges.  Approximately $179, $1,600 and $2,200 in expenses were incurred during
the year ended  December  31,  2004,  in the period from January 1, 2003 through
December  17,  2003 and for the year  ended  December  31,  2002,  respectively,
related to such transactions and are reflected in the accompanying  consolidated
financial statements.

As part of the  Transaction,  the Company  entered into a transitional  services
agreement with GE Capital to provide certain administrative and support services
in exchange for certain  scheduled fees during the 12 months  following the date
of the agreement.  The Company transferred investment management services at the
end of the first  quarter of 2004 to Blackrock  Financial  Management,  Inc. and
Wellington Management Company, LLP from GE Capital.

In connection  with the  Transaction,  the Company  entered into a capital lease
agreement with a subsidiary of GE Capital.  The lease agreement covers leasehold
improvements  made  to the  Company's  headquarters  as well  as  furniture  and
fixtures, computer hardware and software used by the Company (see Note 15).

9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)

In connection with the  Transaction,  the Company entered into the $300,000 Soft
Capital  Facility with GE Capital as lender and  administrative  agent. The Soft
Capital  Facility,  which replaced the capital support facility that the Company
previously had with GE Capital,  had an initial term of eight years. In exchange
for this  commitment,  the Company paid a commitment fee which in the first year
was 0.65% of the then outstanding commitment at each quarter end. This agreement
was  terminated  by the Company on July 22, 2004 and was  replaced by a new soft
capital facility,  "Money Market Committed Preferred Custodial Trust Securities"
("CPS Securities") (see Note 13).

The  Company  also  insured  certain   non-municipal   issues  with  GE  Capital
involvement  as sponsor of the  insured  securitization  and/or  servicer of the
underlying assets. For some of these issues, GE Capital also provides first loss
protection  in the event of  default.  Gross  premiums  written on these  issues
amounted to $6,  $20,  and $50 for the year ended  December  31,  2004,  for the
period  from  January 1, 2003  through  December  18,  2003,  and the year ended
December 31, 2002,  respectively.  As of December 31, 2004,  par  outstanding on
these deals before reinsurance was $3,866.  These issues sponsored by affiliates
of GE total approximately 1% of gross premiums written in 2003 and 2002.

The Company,  in the normal course of operations,  has entered into transactions
with PMI affiliated companies.

As of December 31, 2004 and 2003,  receivables  from  related  parties of $0 and
$9,877, respectively, are due from GE Capital and its affiliates.

10. COMPENSATION PLANS

All  employees of the Company  participate  in the  incentive  compensation  and
deferred compensation plans. Expenses incurred by the Company under compensation
plans and bonuses amounted to $15,493,  $3,996,  $10,087 and $3,800 for the year
ended December 31, 2004, the period from December 18, 2003 through  December 31,
2003,  the period from  January 1, 2003  through  December 17, 2003 and the year
ended  December 31, 2002,  respectively,  and are reflected in the  accompanying
financial statements.  During 2004,  compensation  increased primarily due to an
increase in employee  headcount  Also,  during 2003 and 2002,  compensation  for
certain employees was part of an allocation of expenses

from  affiliates  and  were  recorded  as  an  allocated   expense  rather  than
compensation  expense.  In 2004,  these  expenses were directly  recorded by the
Company.  The  increase  in 2003 is driven by  Transaction  related  costs which
include retention bonuses and sign-on bonuses to new hires post-acquisition.

The Company offers a defined  contribution  savings plan under Section 401(k) of
the Internal Revenue Code. This plan covers substantially all employees who meet
minimum age and service  requirements and allows participants to defer a portion
of their annual  compensation  on a pre-tax basis up to $13 for those  employees
who are  under 50.  Employees  50 and older  are  allowed  to make a "catch  up"
contribution  of an  additional  $3 for 2004  under the  current  IRS code.  The
Company may make discretionary contributions to the plan on behalf of employees.
The Company  contributed  $2,532 to the plan on behalf of employees for the year
ended December 31, 2004.

11. DIVIDENDS

Under New York insurance law, the Company may pay a dividend to FGIC Corporation
only from earned  surplus  subject to the following  limitations:  (a) statutory
surplus  after such dividend may not be less than the minimum  required  paid-in
capital,  which was $72,500 in 2004 and 2003,  and (b)  dividends may not exceed
the lesser of 10% of its surplus or 100% of adjusted net investment  income,  as
defined by New York  insurance  law,  for the  twelve-month  period ended on the
preceding  December  31,  without  the  prior  approval  of the New  York  State
Superintendent   of  Insurance.   In  connection  with  the  Transaction,   FGIC
Corporation  agreed  that no  dividends  were to be  paid by the  Company  until
December  18,  2005,  without  prior  approval  of the New York State  Insurance
Department.

During the year ended  December 31, 2004,  and the period from December 18, 2003
through December 31, 2003, the Company did not declare and pay dividends. During
the period from January 1, 2003 through December 17, 2003 and for the year ended
December 31, 2002 the Company declared and paid dividends to FGIC Corporation of
$284,300 and $100,000  respectively.  These dividends  declared were approved by
the New York State Superintendent of Insurance.

12. REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY

FGIC  Corporation,  in  conjunction  with the  Company,  has a  $200,000  senior
unsecured revolving credit facility with a maturity of 364 days from the closing
of the revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility is provided by a
syndicate of banks and other  financial  institutions  led by JPMorgan Chase, as
administrative agent and sole lead arranger.  During 2004, no draws were made on
the revolving credit facility.

13. PREFERRED TRUST SECURITIES

On July 19, 2004,  the Company  closed a new $300,000  facility,  consisting  of
Money Market Committed  Preferred Custodial Trust Securities ("CPS Securities").
This facility replaces a $300,000 "Soft Capital" facility previously provided by
GE  Capital.  Each of six  separate  and newly  organized  Delaware  trusts (the
"Trusts"),  issues  $50,000 in perpetual  CPS  Securities  on a rolling,  28-day
auction rate basis. Proceeds from these securities are invested in high quality,
short-term  securities (the "Eligible Assets") and held in the respective trust.
Each Trust is solely  responsible for its obligations,  and has been established
for the  purpose  of  entering  into a put  agreement  with  the  Company  which
obligates  the Trust at the  Company's  discretion,  to purchase  the  perpetual
Preferred  Stock of the  Company.  In this way,  the  program  provides  capital
support to the Company by allowing it to obtain  immediate access to new capital
at its sole  discretion at any time through the exercise of the put options.  In
connection with the  establishment  of the Trusts the Company incurred $4,638 of
expenses which is included in underwriting  expenses for the year ended December
31, 2004.  During the year ended  December 31, 2004,  the Company  recorded $905
included  in  underwriting  expenses,  for the  right to put its  shares  to the
trusts.  These trusts are considered  variable  interest  entities under FIN 46,
however,  the Company is not considered the primary beneficiary and therefore is
not required to consolidate the trusts.

14. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

(a)     Fair Value of Financial Instruments

      The  following  methods  and  assumptions  were  used  by the  Company  in
      estimating fair values of financial instruments:

                                        26

14. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)

      Fixed Maturity  Securities:  Fair values for fixed maturity securities are
      based on quoted market prices,  if available.  If a quoted market price is
      not  available,  fair values are estimated  using quoted market prices for
      similar  securities.  Fair value disclosure for fixed maturity  securities
      are included in the consolidated balance sheets and in Note 5.

      Short-term Investments:  Short-term investments are carried at cost, which
      approximates fair value.

      Cash and Cash Equivalents, Accrued Investment Income, Prepaid Expenses and
      Other Assets,  Receivable from Related Parties, Ceded Reinsurance Balances
      Payable,  Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses and Payable for Securities
      Purchased:  The  carrying  amounts of these items  approximate  their fair
      values.

      The  estimated  fair  values of the  Company's  financial  instruments  at
      December 31, 2004 and 2003 are as follows:

                                         2004                     2003

     Financial  Guaranties:  The  carrying  value  of  the  Company's  financial
     guaranties is represented by the unearned premium reserve,  net of deferred
     acquisition  costs,  loss and loss adjustment  expense reserves and prepaid
     reinsurance  premiums.  Estimated fair values of these guaranties are based
     on an estimate of the balance that is necessary to bring the future returns
     for the  Company's  embedded  book of  business  to a  market  return.  The
     estimated fair values of such financial  guaranties is $965,992 compared to
     a carrying  value of  $936,334  as of  December  31,  2004 and is  $830,881
     compared to a carrying value of $824,595 as of December 31, 2003.

14. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)

     As of  December  31,  2004  and  2003,  the net  present  value  of  future
     installment premiums was approximately $192,000 and $111,200, respectively,
     discounted at 5% at December 31, 2004 and 2003.

(b)     Concentrations of Credit Risk

     The  Company  considers  its  role  in  providing  insurance  to be  credit
     enhancement rather than credit substitution. The Company insures only those
     securities  that, in its judgment,  are of investment  grade  quality.  The
     Company has established and maintains its own  underwriting  standards that
     are based on those aspects of credit that the Company  deems  important for
     the  particular  category of obligations  considered for insurance.  Credit
     criteria  include economic and social trends,  debt  management,  financial
     management  and  legal  and   administrative   factors,   the  adequacy  of
     anticipated cash flows,  including the historical and expected  performance
     of  assets  pledged  for  payment  of  securities  under  varying  economic
     scenarios  and  underlying  levels  of  protection  such  as  insurance  or
     over-collateralization.

       In  connection  with  underwriting  new  issues,  the  Company  sometimes
       requires, as a condition to insuring an issue, that collateral be pledged
       or, in some instances, that a third-party guaranty be provided for a term
       of  the  obligation  issued  by a  party  of  acceptable  credit  quality
       obligated to make payment prior to any payment by the Company.  The types
       and extent of collateral pledged varies, but may include  residential and
       commercial  mortgages,  corporate  debt,  government  debt  and  consumer
       receivables.

       As of December 31, 2004, the Company's total  outstanding  bond principal
       insured  was  $236,777,000,   net  of  reinsurance  of  $24,394,000.  The
       Company's   insured  portfolio  as  of  December  31,  2004  was  broadly
       diversified  by  geography  and bond  market  sector  with no single debt
       issuer representing more than 1% of the Company's principal  outstanding,
       net of reinsurance.

1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

Financial   Guaranty  Insurance  Company  (the  "Company")  is  a  wholly  owned
subsidiary of FGIC  Corporation (the "Parent").  The Company provides  financial
guaranty  insurance for public finance and structured finance  obligations.  The
Company began insuring public finance obligations in 1984 and structured finance
obligations in 1988. The Company's  financial strength is rated "Aaa" by Moody's
Investors Service,  Inc., "AAA" by Standard & Poor's Rating Services, a division
of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., and "AAA" by Fitch Ratings, Inc. The Company
is licensed to engage in writing financial  guaranty insurance in all 50 states,
the District of Columbia,  the  Commonwealth  of Puerto  Rico,  the U.S.  Virgin
Islands and,  through a branch,  in the United  Kingdom.  In addition,  a United
Kingdom  subsidiary is authorized to write financial  guaranty  insurance in the
United Kingdom and has passport rights to write business in other European Union
member countries.  The Company and Parent have formed subsidiaries to facilitate
geographic and business  expansion.  As used in these notes,  the term "Company"
refers to Financial Guaranty Insurance Company and/or its subsidiaries.

On December  18,  2003,  an investor  group  consisting  of The PMI Group,  Inc.
("PMI"),  affiliates of the Blackstone Group L.P. ("Blackstone"),  affiliates of
the Cypress  Group L.L.C.  ("Cypress")  and  affiliates  of CIVC  Partners  L.P.
("CIVC"),  collectively the "Investor  Group,"  completed the acquisition of the
Parent from a subsidiary of General Electric Capital  Corporation ("GE Capital")
in a transaction valued at approximately $2,200,000 (the "Transaction").  At the
closing of the  Transaction,  the Investor  Group,  acting through an affiliate,
paid GE Capital a cash purchase  price of  approximately  $1,600,000,  which was
funded  by  equity   investments   by  the  Investor  Group  and  borrowings  of
approximately  $227,300 under a bridge loan facility within an affiliate of Bank
of America  Corporation.  On January 12,  2004,  the Parent  issued  $250,000 of
senior notes due on January 15,  2034.  The notes pay interest on January 15 and
July 15 of each year at a rate of 6% per annum.  The proceeds were used to repay
the outstanding bridge loan, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and the remaining
proceeds  were  retained by the Parent to pay interest on the notes.  As part of
the Transaction,  Banc of America  Securities,  LLC ("BOA") received warrants to
purchase  Parent common stock.  Under the  agreement,  BOA can subscribe for and
purchase up to  approximately  11,451 shares at an exercise price of six hundred
dollars per share.  The  warrants are  exercisable  in whole or in part prior to
December 18, 2013. As of September 30, 2005, no warrants had been exercised.  In
addition,  the Parent  paid GE Capital  approximately  $284,300  in  pre-closing
dividends and GE Capital retained 2,346 shares of Parent  Convertible  Preferred
Stock with an aggregate liquidation preference of $234,600, and approximately 5%
of the outstanding  Parent's common stock. PMI is the largest stockholder of the
Parent,  owning  approximately 42% of its common stock at September 30, 2005 and
December 31, 2004. Blackstone, Cypress and CIVC owned approximately 23%, 23% and
7% of the  Parent's  common  stock,  respectively,  at  September  30,  2005 and
December 31, 2004.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated  financial  statements  include the accounts of the Company and
its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated.

The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
("GAAP") for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all
of the  information  and  footnotes  required  by GAAP  for  complete  financial
statements. In the opinion of management,  all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring  accruals)  considered  necessary  for  fair  presentation  have  been
included.  Operating  results  for  the  three-  and  nine-month  periods  ended
September  30,  2005  are not  necessarily  indicative  of  results  that may be
expected for the full year ending  December 31, 2005.  These  unaudited  interim
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
consolidated  financial  statements  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2004,
including the accompanying notes.

Certain 2004 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2005 presentation.

The  preparation  of  financial  statements  in  conformity  with GAAP  requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in
the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.

3. REVIEW OF FINANCIAL GUARANTY INDUSTRY ACCOUNTING PRACTICES

The Securities and Exchange  Commission  ("SEC") staff has commenced a review of
the accounting  practices of publicly held financial guaranty industry companies
with respect to loss  reserves,  and the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board
("FASB")  staff  is  considering  whether  additional   accounting  guidance  is
necessary to address loss reserving and certain other practices in the financial
guaranty industry.  When the FASB or the SEC reaches a conclusion on this issue,
the Company,  along with other companies in the financial guaranty industry, may
be required to change certain  aspects of accounting for loss reserves,  premium
income and deferred  acquisition costs. The FASB review is ongoing and it is not
possible to predict the impact, if any, that this review, or the one by the SEC,
may have on the Company's accounting practices.

4. PREMIUM REFUNDINGS

When an  obligation  insured by the Company is refunded  prior to the end of the
expected policy coverage period, any remaining unearned premium is recognized. A
refunding occurs when an insured  obligation is called or legally defeased prior
to the stated maturity.

                             (Dollars in thousands)

4. PREMIUM REFUNDINGS (CONTINUED)

Premiums  earned include $46,166 and $36,217 for the nine months ended September
30, 2005 and 2004,  respectively,  and $10,210 and $15,522 for the three  months
ended  September  30, 2005 and 2004,  respectively,  related to the  accelerated
recognition of unearned premiums in connection with refundings.

5. LOSS RESERVES AND LOSS ADJUSTMENT EXPENSES

Loss reserve and loss  adjustment  expenses are  regularly  reviewed and updated
based on claim payments and the results of ongoing  surveillance.  The Company's
ongoing  insured  portfolio   surveillance  is  designed  to  identify  impaired
obligations and thereby provide a materially complete  recognition of losses for
each accounting  period.  The reserves are necessarily  based upon estimates and
subjective judgments about the outcome of future events, and actual results will
likely differ from these estimates.  At September 30, 2005, the Company had case
reserves of $30,319,  credit watchlist reserves of $20,841 and a loss adjustment
expense  reserve of $1,041.  Case  reserves  and credit  watchlist  reserves  at
September 30, 2005 include $8,784 and $12,055, respectively, of estimated losses
related to obligations  impacted by Hurricane Katrina (see Note 12). At December
31, 2004, the Company had case reserves of $14,686, credit watchlist reserves of
$23,484 and a loss adjustment expense reserve of $1,011.

6. INCOME TAXES

The  Company  has a tax  sharing  agreement  with  the  Parent,  which  files  a
consolidated Federal income tax return.

The Company's effective federal corporate tax rate (24.2% and 24.5% for the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively,  19.2% and 26.0% for the
three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004,  respectively)  is less than the
statutory  corporate  tax rate  (35%) on  income  due to  permanent  differences
between financial and taxable income, principally tax-exempt interest.

7. REINSURANCE

Net  premiums  earned  are shown net of ceded  premiums  earned of  $17,712  and
$15,140 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and
$6,074  and  $6,111  for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  2005 and 2004,
respectively.

9. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

In January 2003, the FASB issued Financial  Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation
of Variable  Interest  Entities  ("FIN 46"). FIN 46 requires  variable  interest
entities to be  consolidated by their primary  beneficiaries  if the entities do
not effectively disperse risk among parties involved. Variable interest entities
that  effectively  disperse  risks  will not be  consolidated.  FIN 46  requires
disclosures  for  entities  that have either a primary or  significant  variable
interest in a variable interest entity.  Management has evaluated the structured
finance  transactions  insured  by the  Company  and does not  believe  any such
transactions require consolidation or disclosure under FIN 46.

During 2004,  the Company  arranged the issuance of contingent  preferred  trust
securities by a group of special  purpose Trusts (see Note 10). These Trusts are
considered variable interest entities under FIN 46. However,  the Company is not
considered the primary  beneficiary and therefore is not required to consolidate
the Trusts.

10. PREFERRED TRUST SECURITIES

On July 19, 2004,  the Company  closed a new $300,000  facility,  consisting  of
Money Market Committed  Preferred Custodial Trust Securities ("CPS Securities").
This facility replaced a $300,000 "Soft Capital" facility previously provided by
GE Capital.  Each of six separate newly organized Delaware trusts (the "Trusts")
issues  $50,000 in perpetual CPS  Securities on a rolling,  28-day  auction rate
basis.  Proceeds from these securities are invested in high quality,  short-term
securities and held in the respective  Trusts.  Each Trust is solely responsible
for its obligations, and has been established for the purpose of entering into a
put  agreement  with the Company  which  obligates  the Trusts at the  Company's
discretion,  to purchase perpetual  Preferred Stock of the Company. In this way,
the  program  provides  capital  support to the Company by allowing it to obtain
immediate  access to new capital at its sole  discretion at any time through the
exercise of the put options.  The Company  recorded expense for the right to put
its shares to the Trusts of $1,431 and $387 for the nine months ended  September
30, 2005 and 2004,  respectively,  and $463 and $387 for the three  months ended
September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

11. REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY

The Parent,  in conjunction  with the Company,  has a $200,000 senior  unsecured
revolving  credit  facility  expiring  on December  14,  2005.  The  facility is
provided  by a  syndicate  of banks  and  other  financial  institutions  led by
JPMorgan Chase, as administrative agent and sole lead arranger. During 2004, and
for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  2005,  no draws were made under the
facility.

12. HURRICANE KATRINA

At September 30, 2005 the Company had insured public finance  obligations with a
net par in force ("NPIF") of approximately  $4,128,173 in locations  impacted by
Hurricane  Katrina.  Approximately  $2,059,614 of these  obligations  relates to
locations  designated by the U.S. Federal  Emergency  Management  Administration
("FEMA")  as  eligible  for both public and  individual  assistance  ("FEMA-dual
designated  locations");  the  remainder,  or $2,068,559,  of these  obligations
relates to locations  designated by FEMA as eligible for  individual  assistance
only.  The Company  believes that insured  obligations  in FEMA-dual  designated
locations  are  more  likely  to  be  impaired  than  obligations  eligible  for
individual  assistance  only.  Consequently,  since the  occurrence of Hurricane
Katrina,  the Company has focused its portfolio  surveillance efforts related to
Hurricane  Katrina on evaluating its insured  public finance  obligations in the
dual-designated   locations.   These  FEMA-dual  designated  locations  consists
primarily of counties and parishes in Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana.

As a result of this  evaluation,  the Company has placed  insured public finance
obligations with a NPIF totaling $977,345 on the credit  watchlist.  The insured
public finance obligations placed on the credit watchlist consist of obligations
located in the  Parish of Orleans  (in which New  Orleans  is  located)  and the
immediately surrounding parishes. For the three months ended September 30, 2005,
the Company recorded case reserves of $8,784,  watchlist reserves of $12,055 and
estimated  reinsurance  recoverables  of $363 related to insured  public finance
obligations  placed on the credit watchlist.  The case reserves of $8,784 relate
to an  investor-owned  utility  with a NPIF of  $75,000  that has  entered  into
bankruptcy  proceedings.  The  watchlist  reserves  of  $12,055  were  based  on
management's  assessment that the associated insured public finance  obligations
have experienced  impairment due to diminished revenue sources. The NPIF for the
insured public finance  obligations for which watchlist reserves of $12,055 have
been  established  totals  $503,083.  The $503,083 (a subset of the $977,345) is
supported by the revenue sources below:

12. HURRICANE KATRINA (CONTINUED)

The Company  historically  has established  watchlist  reserves to recognize the
potential  for claims  against the Company on insured  obligations  that are not
presently  in payment  default,  but which have  migrated to an impaired  level,
where there is a substantial  increased  probability of default.  These reserves
reflect an  estimate  of  probable  loss given  evidence  of  impairment,  and a
reasonable  estimate of the amount of loss given default.  The  methodology  for
establishing  and calculating the watchlist  reserve relies on a  categorization
and assessment of the  probability of default,  and loss severity given default,
of the specifically  identified  impaired  obligations on the watchlist based on
historical  trends and other  factors.  The  watchlist  reserve is  adjusted  as
necessary to reflect  changes in the loss  expectation  inherent in the group of
impaired  credits.  Case  reserves  are  established  for the value of estimated
losses on particular  insured  obligations that are presently or likely to be in
payment  default at the  balance  sheet  date,  and for which the future loss is
probable and can be reasonably estimated.

Given the  unprecedented  nature of the  events and  magnitude  of damage in the
affected  areas,  the loss reserves were  necessarily  based upon  estimates and
subjective  judgments  about the  outcome of future  events,  including  without
limitation  the amount and timing of any future  federal and state aid. The loss
reserves will likely be adjusted as additional  information  becomes  available,
and such adjustments may have a material impact on future results of operations.
However,  the Company believes that the losses ultimately  incurred as result of
Hurricane  Katrina will not have a material  impact on the  Company's  financial
position.

For the three months ended  September 30, 2005, the Company paid claims totaling
$4,856 related to insured public finance  obligations  impacted by Katrina.  The
Company subsequently received reimbursements of $169 and $4,686 on September 12,
2005 and October 13, 2005, respectively, for these claims payments. At September
30, 2005, the $4,686 is reflected as a recoverable on paid claims.

The  Company's  structured  finance  insured  portfolio  was  not  significantly
impacted by Hurricane Katrina,  reflecting the geographic diversification of the
credits comprising the insured structured finance obligations.
