INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT
The Board of Directors
The Money Store Inc.:
We have examined Management's Assertion about The Money Store Inc. and
subsidiaries (the Company) compliance with the minimum servicing standards
relating to mortgage loans, commercial loans and auto loans, identified in the
Mortgage Bankers Association of America's Uniform Single Attestation Program for
Mortgage Bankers (USAP), except for minimum servicing standard V. 4 which is
inapplicable to the servicing of auto loans, as of and for the year ended
December 31, 1997 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 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, 1997 is fairly stated, in all material respects.
