Independent Account's Report
The Board of Directors
Impac Funding Corporation:
We have examined management's assertion, included in the accompanying
Management Assertions on Servicing, that, except for the noncompliance items
described in items 4 and 8, Impac Funding Corporation complied with the
requirements for Master Servicer detailed in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreements during the year ending December 31,2002. Management is responsible
for Impac Funding Corporation's compliance with those requirements. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on Impac Funding Corporation's
compliance based on our examination.
Our examination was conducted in accordance with attestation standards
established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accounts and,
accordingly, included examining, on a teat basis, evidence about Impac Funding
Corporation's compliance with those requirements and performing such other
procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Our examination
did not extend to the controls at the sub-servicers. We believe that our
examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination does
not provide a legal determination on Impac Funding Corporation's compliance
with specific requirements.
Our examination disclosed the following material noncompliance with the
requirements of the Master Servicer as detailed in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreements applicable to Impac Funding Corporation during the year December
31,2002
Cendant Mortgage Corporation, Countrywide Home Loans and Option One
Mortgage Corporation, sub-servicers of the Master Servicer, are
allowed 48 hours to deposit payments into the protected accounts
rather than 24 hours as required in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreements.
The Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers (USAP)
letters and sub-servicer officers certifications for two of the sub-
servicers, Option One Mortgage and Lighthouse Community Bank, were as
of April 30, 2002 and September 30,2002, rather then December
31,2002.
KPMG Logo Here
KPMG Logo here
Flagstar Bank, a sub-servicer of the Master Servicer, does not
provide a UASP letter to the Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer does not cause Option One Mortgage Corporation,
which is one of the Masters Servicer's sub-servicers, to deny
mortgage payment forbearance for more than six months or during the
last twelve months of the mortgage note term as required in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreements.
The Master Servicer was unable to provide executed copies of the
Pooling and Servicing agreements for the CMB 2001-2 and SAC 2001-5
securitizations. Instead the Master Servicer provided unsigned
copies of the agreements which they represented are the same as the
executed copies. The Master Servicer indicated that the executed
copied were destroyed by the September 11,2001 world trade center
incident.
In our opinion, except for the material non-compliance items described in the
third paragraph, Impac Funding Corporation complied, in all material respects,
with the aforementioned requirements for the year ended December 31,2002.
These items of material noncompliance were considered in determining the
nature, timing, and extent of the audit of the 2002 consolidated financial
statements, and this report does not effect our reported dated January 29,2003.
As discussed in Note A to the consolidated financial statements, the Company
changed its method of accounting for derivative instruments and hedging
activities in 2001.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of Deutsche Bank
Trust Company, Americas and Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, N.A. and not intended
to be and should not be used by anyone other then these specific parties.
