with the applicable servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of Regulation
AB of the Securities and Exchange Commission, as set forth in Exhibit A hereto,

special bond program and (b) loans held for its own portfolio, utilizing the
Citilink system (the "Platform") as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010;

2. The Servicer has engaged certain vendors (the "Vendors") to perform specific,
limited or scripted activities as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010.
As set forth in Exhibit A hereto, the Servicer's management has determined that
these Vendors are not considered a "servicer" as defined in Item 1101(j) of
Regulation AB, and the Servicer's management has elected to take responsibility
for assessing compliance with the servicing criteria applicable to each Vendor
as permitted by Interpretation 17.06 of the SEC Division of Corporation Finance
Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations (Interpretation 17.06).
As permitted by Interpretation 17.06, management has asserted that it has
policies and procedures in place designed to provide reasonable assurance that
the Vendors' activities comply in all material respects with the servicing
criteria applicable to each Vendor. The Servicer's management is solely
responsible for determining that it meets the SEC requirements to apply
Interpretation 17.06 for the Vendors and related criteria;

3. Except as set forth in paragraph 4 below, the Servicer used the criteria set
forth in paragraph (d) of Item 1122 of Regulation AB to assess the compliance
with the applicable servicing criteria as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2010;

4. The criteria listed as Inapplicable Servicing Criteria on Exhibit A hereto
are inapplicable to the Servicer based on the activities it performs with
respect to asset-backed securities transactions involving the Platform;

5. The Servicer has complied, in all material respects, with the applicable
servicing criteria as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010, except as
described on Exhibit B hereto;

6. The Servicer has not identified and is not aware of any material instance of
noncompliance by the Vendors with the applicable servicing criteria as of and
for the year ended December 31, 2010;

7. The Servicer has not identified any material deficiency in its policies and
procedures to monitor the compliance by the Vendors with the applicable
servicing criteria as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010; and

Exhibit B


1. Material instances of noncompliance by the Servicer.

Regulation AB Item - 1122(d)(4)(vii) - In certain instances, the Servicer has
not obtained proper documentation as required by the transaction documents and
internal policies with respect to foreclosure activities.


2. Servicer's commentary regarding material instances of noncompliance.

Beginning in the fall of 2009, Citi took a series of steps to strengthen its
practices and add additional resources to ensure foreclosures were being
processed correctly. As part of these improvements, Citi centralized its
foreclosure operations into one unit, added staff and enhanced training for
greater efficiency and control, and requires annual certification of its
employees' understanding of the proper procedures. Also, managers were made
accountable for regularly reviewing files to make certain that employees
comply with the procedures. These improvements were fully implemented in
February of 2010. Under Citi's existing procedures, affidavits are prepared by
outside counsel to ensure compliance with each state's foreclosure laws, and
each package is reviewed by a Citi employee who verifies the information and
signs the foreclosure affidavit in the presence of a notary. When errors are
found, the documents are returned to the attorney, who revises the package and
resubmits the documents for review. Foreclosures are monitored to make certain
that staffing is adequate to review the affidavits properly. The changes and
safeguards implemented during the fall of 2009 and 2010 give Citi confidence
that there are no systemic issues in its existing foreclosure processes. To
date, Citi's review of foreclosure affidavits has not identified cases where
Citi foreclosed on a property in error.
