INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT'S REPORT
To the Board of Directors
United Companies Lending Corporation
We have examined management's assertion about United Companies
Lending Corporation's compliance with the minimum servicing
standards identified in the Mortgage Bankers Association of
America's Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage
Bankers (USAP) as of and for the year ended December 31, 1996
included in the accompanying management assertion. Management is
responsible for United Companies Lending Corporation's compliance
with those minimum servicing standards. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on management's assertion about the entity'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
United Companies Lending Corporation'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 United Companies
Lending Corporation's compliance with the minimum servicing standards.
In our opinion, management's assertion that United Companies
Lending Corporation complied with the aforementioned minimum
servicing standards as of and for the year ended December 31, 1996
is fairly stated, in all material respects.
