Report of Independent Auditors
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of GreenPoint Financial Corporation:
We have examined management’s assertion about GreenPoint Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries, including GreenPoint Mortgage Funding, Inc. (the “Company”) compliance with the minimum servicing standards identified in the Mortgage Bankers Association of America’sUniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers (“USAP”) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2003 included in the accompanying management assertion (see Exhibit I). Management is responsible for the Company’s compliance with those minimum servicing standards. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assertion about the Company’s compliance based on our examination.
Our examination was made in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Company’s compliance with the minimum servicing standards and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. 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 minimum servicing standards.
In our opinion, management’s assertion that the Company complied with the aforementioned minimum servicing standards as of and for the year ended December 31, 2003 is fairly stated, in all material respects.
