CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
--------------------
DECEMBER 31, 2004, 2003 2002
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors and Stockholder
University Bancorp, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of University
Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss),
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years ended December
31, 2004. 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 did not audit the financial statements of
Midwest Loan Services, Inc., an eighty percent owned subsidiary, which
statements reflect total assets of 5.2 percent and 5.4 percent as of December
31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and total revenues of 44.7 percent, 48.7
percent and 39.9 percent, respectively, for each of the three years ended
December 31, 2004. Those statements were audited by other auditors, whose report
thereon has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the
amounts included for Midwest Loan Services, Inc., is based solely on the report
of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not
required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal
control over financial reporting. Our audits included 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, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of the other auditors the
consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of University Bancorp, Inc. and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the each of the three years ended December
31, 2004 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.

1. Summary of significant accounting policies
Principles of Consolidation and Nature of Operations The consolidated
financial statements of University Bancorp, Inc. (the Company) include
the operations of its wholly-owned subsidiary, University Bank (the
Bank), the Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, University Insurance &
Investment Services, Inc. (Agency) and an 80% owned subsidiary, Midwest
Loan Services, Inc. ("Midwest"). The accounts are maintained on an
accrual basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles and predominant practices within the banking and mortgage
banking industries. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in preparing the consolidated
financial statements.
The Company is a bank holding company. University Bank, which is located
in Michigan, is a full service community bank, which offers all
customary banking services, including the acceptance of checking,
savings and time deposits. The Bank also makes commercial, real estate,
personal, home improvement, automotive and other installment, credit
card and consumer loans, and provides fee based services such as annuity
and mutual fund sales, stock brokerage and money management, life
insurance, property casualty insurance and foreign currency exchange.
The Bank's customer base is primarily located in the Ann Arbor, Michigan
area. The Bank established its main office in Ann Arbor in February
1996, by relocating from the eastern upper peninsula of Michigan.
University Bank's loan portfolio is concentrated in Ann Arbor and
Washtenaw County, Michigan. While the loan portfolio is diversified, the
customers' ability to honor their debts is partially dependent on the
local economy. The Ann Arbor area is primarily dependent on the
education, healthcare, services and manufacturing (automotive and other)
industries. Most real estate loans are secured by residential or
commercial real estate and business assets secure most business loans.
Generally, installment loans are secured by various items of personal
property.
The Agency is engaged in the sale of insurance products including life,
health, property and casualty, and investment products including
annuities, mutual funds, stock brokerage and money management. The
Agency is located in the Bank's Ann Arbor main office. The Agency also
has a limited partnership investment in low-income housing tax credits
through Michigan Capital Fund for Housing Limited Partnership I with
financing assistance from the General Partner, Michigan Capital Fund for
Housing.
Midwest is engaged in the business of servicing and subservicing
residential mortgage loans. Midwest began operations in 1992 and was
acquired by University Bank in December, 1995. Midwest is based in
Houghton, Michigan, and also originates mortgage loans for itself and
other financial institutions, including the Bank (See Note 3).
1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
Use of Estimates in Preparing Financial Statements:
--------------------------------------------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions based upon available information. These estimates and
assumptions affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
The significant estimates incorporated into these consolidated financial
statements which are more susceptible to change in the near term include
the value of mortgage servicing rights, the allowance for loan losses,
the identification and valuation of impaired loans, the valuation of
other real estate owned, the fair value of financial instruments, and
the valuation of deferred tax assets.
Cash flow reporting
For purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, cash and cash
equivalents is defined to include the cash on hand, non-interest bearing
deposits in other institutions, federal funds sold and other investments
with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. Net cash flows
are reported for customer loan and deposit transactions and interest
bearing deposits with other banks.
Securities
Securities are classified as available for sale when they might be sold
before maturity. Securities available for sale are carried at fair
value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other
comprehensive income or loss. Realized gains are based on specific
identification of amortized cost. Securities are written down to fair
value when a decline in fair value is not temporary. Interest income
includes amortization of purchase premium or discount. Other securities
such as Federal Home Loan Bank stock are carried at cost.
Loans
Loans are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of unearned
interest, deferred loan fees and costs, and an allowance for loan
losses. Interest income is reported on the interest method and includes
amortization of net deferred loan fees and costs over the loan term.
Interest income is not reported when full loan repayment is in doubt,
typically when payments are past due over 90 days. Payments received on
such loans are reported as principal reductions, unless all interest and
principal payments in arrears are paid in full.
1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
Mortgage banking activities
Mortgage banking activities includes retail and servicing operations.
Mortgage loans held for sale are valued at the lower of cost or market as
determined by bid prices for loans in the secondary market. The loans are
sold without recourse, except in the event that documentation errors are
made during the origination process. Loan servicing and subservicing fees
are contractually based and are recognized monthly as earned over the
life of the loans.
Allowance for loan losses
The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable
credit losses, increased by the provision for loan losses and recoveries
and decreased by charge-offs. Management estimates the balance required
based on past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the
portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated
collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors. Allocations
of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire
allowance is available for any loan that, in management's judgment,
should be charged-off.
Loan impairment is reported when full payment under the loan terms is
not expected. Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans
of similar nature such as residential mortgage, consumer, and credit
card loans, and on an individual loan basis for other loans. If a loan
is impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is
reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using
the loan's existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment
is expected solely from the collateral. Loans are evaluated for
impairment when payments are delayed, typically 90 days or more, or when
it is probable that all principal and interest amounts will not be
collected according to the original terms of the loan.
Premises and equipment
Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation is computed primarily on the straight-line
method for bank premises and the accelerated method for equipment and
land improvements over their estimated useful lives. The Company uses
the following useful lives as of December 31, 2004:
Buildings and building improvements 39 years
Land and leasehold improvements 15 years
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment 3-7 years
Software 2-5 years
Other real estate owned
Real estate properties acquired in collection of a loan are recorded at
fair value upon foreclosure. Any reduction to fair value from the
carrying value of the related loan is accounted for as a loan loss.
1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
After acquisition, a valuation allowance reduces the reported amount to
the lower of the initial amount or fair value less costs to sell.
Expenses, gains and losses on disposition, and changes in the valuation
allowance are reported in other expenses.
Servicing rights
Servicing rights represent both purchased rights and the allocated value
of servicing rights retained on loans originated and sold. Servicing
rights are expensed in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated
net servicing revenues. Impairment is evaluated based on the fair value
of the rights, using grouping of the underlying loans as to type, term
and interest rates. Any impairment of a grouping is reported as a
valuation allowance.
Income taxes
Income tax expense/benefit is the sum of the current year estimated tax
obligation or refund per the income tax return and the change in the
estimated future tax effects of temporary differences and
carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets or liabilities are computed by
applying enacted income tax rates to the expected reversals of temporary
differences between financial reporting and income tax reporting, and by
considering carry-forwards for operating losses and tax credits. A
valuation allowance adjusts deferred tax assets to the net amount that
is more likely than not to be realized.
Retirement plan
The Bank has a 401(K) Plan that allows an employee to contribute up to
15% of salary pre-tax, to the allowable limit prescribed by the Internal
Revenue Service. Management has discretion to make matching
contributions to the Plan. However, the Bank made no matching
contributions for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002.
Employees Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
The Company has a noncontributory ESOP covering all full-time employees
who have met certain service requirements. The employees' share in the
Company's contribution is based on their current compensation as a
percentage of the total employee compensation. As shares are contributed
to the plan they are allocated to employees and compensation expense is
recorded at the shares' fair value. The Company made no contribution in
2004, 2003 and 2002.
Stock options
At December 31, 2004, the Company has a stock-based employee compensation
plan, which is described more fully in Note 8. The Company accounts for
those plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB
Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related
Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected
in net income, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise
price greater than or equal to the market value of the underlying common
stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on
net (loss) income and earnings per share if the company

Dividend restriction
Banking regulations require the maintenance of certain capital levels and
may limit the amount of dividends that may be paid by the bank to the
holding company or by the holding company to shareholders. In addition,
the Bank cannot pay a dividend until it has net retained earnings or
unless it receives a waiver from the State of Michigan banking
regulators. The accumulated deficit of the Bank was $1,978,688 and
$1,483,994 at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
(Loss) earnings per share
Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net (loss) income
available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares
outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution
that would occur if dilutive securities were exercised or converted into
common stock. The following table presents a reconciliation of the
weighted average common shares outstanding for the earnings per share
calculation for the years ended December 31:

Comprehensive (Loss) Income
Comprehensive (loss) income includes both the net loss and the change in
unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale.
Segment Reporting
The Company's segments are determined by the products and services
offered, primarily distinguished between banking and mortgage banking
operations. Loans, investments, and deposits provide the revenues in the
banking operation, and servicing fees, underwriting fees and loan sales
provide the revenues in mortgage banking. All operations are domestic.
Reclassification
Certain items in the 2003 and 2002 consolidated financial statements and
notes have been reclassified to conform to the 2004 presentation.

University Bank and Midwest sell conforming residential mortgage loans
to the secondary market. These loans are owned by other institutions and
are not included in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Such
mortgage loans have been sold predominately without recourse or with
limited recourse. The unpaid principal balance of these loans was $120.6
million, $112.3 million and $87.0 million at December 31, 2004, 2003 and

Market interest rate conditions can quickly affect the value of mortgage
servicing rights in a positive or negative fashion, as long-term
interest rates rise and fall. The amortization of these rights is based
upon the level of principal pay downs received and expected prepayments
of the mortgage loans. The servicing rights are recorded at the lower of
cost or market.

At December 31, 2004 and 2003, the fair value of securities pledged to
secure certain borrowings were $1,106,607 and $1,649,169, respectively.
Unrealized losses at December 31, 2004 and 2003 have existed for longer
than twelve months. This decline is considered temporary as the values
of the mortgage-backed securities fluctuate based on changes in current
interest rates and prepayment assumptions related to the underlying
mortgages. Furthermore, the Company expects to hold these securities
sufficiently long enough to recover these unrealized losses.

In June 2003, the Bank sold its main office and sole branch
location to Lowertown Development, LLC ("Lowertown") for $1,173,833, and
a gain of $342,851. As part of this transaction, the Bank received an
option to purchase 10,000 square feet of office space in a new facility
to be constructed by Lowertown which was valued at $200,000.
Simultaneously, the Bank entered into a 24 month lease agreement with
Lowertown to leaseback the building sold. The lease included 5 six-month
options to extend the lease until the earlier of the completion of the
new building or December 2007. Lowertown is developing the neighboring
area with a major office, retail and apartment development. Under the
terms of the agreement, the Bank has an option to purchase 10,000 square
feet of office space in this new development for fair market value up to
a maximum of $2,000,000. It is currently anticipated that the new
facility will be occupied in February 2007. Both the gain on the sale of
the building and the purchase option are being amortized into income over
the life of the expected lease term. Lowertown is obligated to pay the
Bank $200,000 if the office space is not completed prior to the end of
the extended lease period in December 2007.
Depreciation expense amounted to $318,584, $305,741 and $290,516 for the
years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

providing services to the Company, of options to purchase and other
awards of common stock. The exercise price of options granted under the
plan shall be determined by the Board of Directors, or a compensation
committee thereof. Options shall expire on the date specified by the
Board of Directors or such committee, but not more than 10 years from
the
date of grant (or five years from the date of grant for incentive stock
options if the grantee owned 10% of the Company's voting stock at the

11. Commitments and contingencies
The Bank is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk
in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its
customers. These financial instruments include commitments to buy, sell
and fund loans, letters of credit and unused lines of credit. The Bank's

business and were performing pursuant to terms at December 31, 2004.
13. Income taxes
At December 31, 2004 income tax expense of $80,000 was recorded due to
uncertainties as to the future benefits of the net operating losses.
At December 31, 2003, the Company recorded an $80,000 tax benefit as a
deferred tax asset which represented a portion of the existing net
operating loss carry-forward that was expected to be utilized to offset
future taxable income.
The net deferred tax asset at December 31, 2004 and 2003 is comprised of
the following:
2004 2003
Allowance for loan losses $ 123,732 $ 276,579
Net operating loss carry-forward 707,369 487,663
Tax credit carry-forward 1,111,810 989,123

Net deferred tax asset $ 0 $ 80,000
============= ============
The Company has net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately
$2,080,000 which expire beginning in 2012 and general business credit
carry-forwards of approximately $1,112,000 which expire beginning in
2011. Financial statement tax expense amounts differ from the amounts
computed by applying the statutory federal tax rate of 34% to pretax
income because of operating losses and valuation allowances recorded to
reduce deferred tax assets as noted above.
14. Short Term Borrowings

Chicago (the FRB) in the amount of $5.7 million. There were no amounts
outstanding on this line from the FRB at December 31, 2004 and 2003.
Borrowings are secured by the pledge of specific commercial loans held
for investment with unpaid principal balances of $7.8 million. The
following information provides a summary of short-term borrowings for
the years indicated:

rate of NCB&T plus 1.00 percent.
Dividends by the Bank to the holding company in excess of the prior
year's annual net income are not permitted without prior permission from
NCB&T under the terms of the Company's credit facility.
16. Regulatory matters
University Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum
capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly
additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken,
could have a direct material effect on the Company's financial
statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory
framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific
capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank's
assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated
under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's capital amounts and
classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators
about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
The Bank is also subject to prompt corrective action capital requirement
regulations set forth by the FDIC. The FDIC requires the Bank to maintain
a minimum of total capital and Tier 1 capital (as defined) to
risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to
16. Regulatory matters (continued)
average total assets (as defined). As of December 31, 2004, the Bank did
not meet all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject as the
Bank presently has a written understanding with its regulators that the
Bank will maintain the ratio of Tier 1 Capital to average assets at 7% or
more. Management has submitted a plan of corrective action to the FDIC.
This plan includes the possible issuance of preferred stock.
As of December 31, 2004, the most recent guidelines from the FDIC
categorized the Bank as "adequately capitalized" under the regulatory
framework for prompt corrective action. At December 31, 2003 the Bank was
classified as "well capitalized." To be categorized as "well
capitalized," or "adequately capitalized" the Bank must maintain minimum
total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set
forth in the table.

17. Management's Plan Regarding Continuing Operations At December 31, 2004,
University Bancorp had an accumulated deficit of $2,490,224 and
recurring losses from operations for 3 of the past 5 years. University
Bancorp's operations are intended to continue in the future. Management
has reviewed operating results, prepared projections of possible future
results, performed other analyses of its operations to reduce operating
costs and entered new product lines of business.
17. Management's Plan Regarding Continuing Operations (continued)
Management of the Company has implemented a plan to improve core
earnings by adding low-cost deposits, adjusting fees, growing the loan
portfolio of the Bank, reducing loan delinquencies, liquidating other
real estate owned, improving the synergy between its subsidiary
operations, and eliminating inefficient or redundant costs at the Bank
level. Both the Bank and Midwest are projected to have net income in
2005, however, the Company's continued operation is dependent upon its
ability to maintain profitable operations and retain adequate capital
levels.
18. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair values
for financial instruments. The carrying amount is considered to estimate
fair value for cash and short-term instruments, demand deposits,
short-term borrowings, accrued interest, and variable rate loans or
deposits that reprice frequently and fully. Securities fair values are
based on quoted market prices or, if no quotes are available, on the
rate and term of the security and on information about the issuer. For
fixed rate loans or deposits and for variable rate loan or deposits with
infrequent repricing or repricing limits, the fair value is estimated by
the discounted cash flow analysis using current market rates for the
estimated life and credit risk. Fair values for impaired loans are
estimated using discounted cash flow analyses of underlying collateral
values, where applicable. Fair value of loans held for sale is based on
market estimates. Fair value of mortgage servicing rights is estimated
using discounted cash flows based on current market interest rates net
of estimated costs of servicing loans. Fair value of mortgage
subservicing rights is based on a multiple of servicing contract
revenue. The fair value of debt is based on currently available rates
for similar financing. The fair value of off-balance sheet items is
based on the fees or cost that would normally be charged to enter into
or terminate such agreements. Fair value of unrecognized financial
instruments includes commitments to extend credit and the fair value of
letters of credit is considered immaterial.
18. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)
The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial
instruments were as follows:

19. Segment Reporting
The Company's operations include two primary segments: retail banking
and mortgage banking. Through its banking subsidiary's branch in Ann
Arbor, the Company provides traditional community banking services such
as accepting deposits, making loans, and providing cash management
services to individuals and local businesses. Mortgage banking
activities includes servicing of residential mortgage loans for others
(See Note 2).
19. Segment Reporting (continued)
The Company's two reportable segments are strategic business units that
are separately managed as they offer different products and services and
have different marketing strategies. In addition, the mortgage banking
segment services a different customer base from that of the retail
banking segment.
The segment financial information provided below has been derived from
the internal profitability reporting system used by management to
monitor and manage the financial performance of the Company. The
accounting policies of the three segments are the same as those
described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company
evaluates segment performance based on profit or loss before income
taxes, not including nonrecurring gains and losses. Certain indirect
expenses have been allocated based on actual volume measurements and
other criteria, as appropriate. The Company accounts for transactions
between segments at current market prices. Segment profit is measured
before allocation of corporate overhead and income tax expense.

2004 follows:

Disclosure controls also are designed with an objective of
ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to
our companys management, including our chief executive officer
and chief financial officer, in order to allow timely
consideration regarding required disclosures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation
was carried out under the supervision and with the participation
of the Company's management, including our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures
(as defined in Rules 13a-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, except as described
below, the operation of these disclosure controls and procedures
were effective. During the course of the audit of our financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2004, our independent
registered public accounting firm, Grant Thornton LLP, indicated
that the following material deficiencies, in the aggregate,
constitute a material weakness in our internal controls pursuant
to standards established by the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board:
(1) The Company lacks sufficiently formalized accounting
policies and procedures, including written procedures
for the preparation of the Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q in accordance with applicable SEC guidelines.
(2) The Company's manual procedures for performing
consolidations increase the possibility that errors
could occur and our dual controls may not be
sufficient to guarantee avoidance of all errors in
consolidation.
(3) The Company may have insufficient staff in the
accounting and financial reporting departments to
meet the needs of Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404
standards by June 2006
(4) The Company replaced its core banking software
application during the summer of 2004. The core
banking system is now out-sourced to a service bureau
whereas previously the bank maintained the core
banking system in house. During the transition and
for a period afterwards it was necessary to give
certain members of senior management additional
access rights for training and the transition
requirements in the new system. In March 2005, access
rights for the banking software were revised and
access rights were reassigned to levels appropriate
for a routine operating environment. The controls in
the new core banking application in place today are
significantly better than the overall control levels
in the system that was replaced.
Management has begun implementing plans to address each of
items 1-3, further improving on the systems and procedures
already in place. Management believes that its plans with
respect to each of these items will be completed and
implemented in the second quarter of 2005.
With respect to policies and procedures for the Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q, management notes that it uses a checklist
prepared by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants to assist in the preparation of SEC reports and
that it maintains a reference library of SEC and accounting
handbooks. Management is implementing plans to further
formalize its procedures and
expects to complete and implement this in the second quarter
of 2005.
Management believes that the Company's general ledger and core
processing systems for each entity in the consolidation are
effective and are consistent with systems used by others in
our industry. We have evaluated our procedures and made
changes to increase the automation and dual controls for
preparing consolidated results.
Management believes that the current staff in the accounting
and financial reporting is sufficient and properly trained to
implement appropriate internal controls and to generate
accurate financial statements. We continue to provide training
and to document our systems and procedures to make sure that
the Company is able to comply with the internal control report
requirements by the applicable deadline.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls. Except as described above, there
were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls
over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the
Company's internal control over financial reporting

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
Board of Directors
Midwest Loan Services, Inc.
Houghton, MI 49931
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Midwest Loan
Services, Inc., as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related
statements of income, retained earnings, and cash flows for the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2004. 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 the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged
to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.
Our audit included 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 companies 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
as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Midwest
Loan Services Inc. as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of
its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.
