Indmendent Accountant's -R-Q2
We have examined management's assertion about First Union Mortgage
Corporation's Commercial Loan Servicing Division'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 (USAP), except for minimum. servicing
standards V.4. and VI. L, which the MBA has interpreted as being
inapplicable to the servicing of commercial and multifamily 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 servic mig standards. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on management's assertion
about the Company's compliance based on our exammiation-
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 applicable minimum servicing standards and performing
such other procedures as we considered necessary in ft 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 applicable minimum servicing standards-
In our opinion, management's assertion that the Company has complied in
all material respects with the aforementioned applicable minimirm
servicing standards as of and for the year ended December 31, 1997 is
fairly stated, in all material respects.
