REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
--------------------------------------------------
IndyMac, Inc.
We have examined management's assertion about IndyMac, Inc.'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, 1999, included in the accompanying
management assertion. Management is responsible for IndyMac, Inc.'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 IndyMac, Inc.'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 IndyMac, Inc.'s compliance with the minimum servicing
standards.
In our opinion, management's assertion that IndyMac, Inc. complied with the
aforementioned minimum servicing standards as of and for the year ended
December 31, 1999 is fairly stated, in all material respects.
