Annual Statement as to Compliance as required by the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement for the above referenced security and certifies
that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during such
preceding fiscal year (or such shorter period in the case of the

been made under my supervision, and (ii) to the best of my
knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled

Independent Auditors' Report
To the Partners of Litton Loan Servicing LP:
We have examined management's assertion about Litton Loan
Servicing LP's (the "Company") compliance with the minimum
servicing standards identified in the Mortgage Bankers
Association of America's Uniform Single Attestation Program
for Mortgage Bankers as of and for the year ended December 31,
2002, included in the accompanying management assertion.
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 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 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 of 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, 2002
is fairly stated, in all material respects.

As of December 31, 2002, Litton Loan Servicing LP
(the Company) has complied in all material respects with
the minimum servicing standards set forth in the Mortgage
Bankers Association of America's Uniform Single Attestation
Program for Mortgage Bankers. As of and for this same
period, Litton Loan Servicing LP had in effect a fidelity
bond in the amount of $15,000,000 and an errors and
omissions policy in the amount of $15,000,000.
In January 2003, the Company identified certain custodial
accounts that had not been reconciled timely during the
year ended December 31, 2002. Upon notification of this
issue, management immediately began an effort to bring these
custodial accounts current. The Company has currently
reconciled all custodial accounts, and has implemented
controls to ensure the timely and accurate reconciliation
of custodial accounts.
