*It  has  been  the  Company's  experience  that,  with  respect  to  the  first
Distribution  Date after the  closing  of a  securitization  containing  a large
number of recently originated or acquired Mortgage Loans, the number of Mortgage
Loans 30-59 days delinquent may be inflated due to the borrowers sending monthly
payments  to the wrong  location  or  delays by the  Company  in  inputting  the
Mortgage  Loans  on  its  servicing  system.  It has  also  been  the  Company's
experience  that  for the  majority  of  such  Mortgage  Loans  the  routing  of
borrowers'  monthly  payments has  corrected  itself by the second  Distribution
Date.  However,  the Company  makes no  assurances as to the level of delinquent
Mortgage Loans for future Distribution Dates.
