Ex-99.1 (a) Independent Accountants' Report To the Board of Directors Saxon Mortgage Services, Inc. Fort Worth, Texas We have examined management's assertion that Saxon Mortgage Services, Inc. (the "Company") has complied as of and for the year ended December 31, 2002, with its established minimum servicing standards described in the accompanying management assertion dated March 14, 2003. 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 conducted in accordance with attestation 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 its 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 its 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, 2002, is fairly stated, in all material respects based on the criteria set forth in Appendix I, except as noted in the following paragraph. In four of the thirty custodial bank accounts selected for testing for May 2002, the reconciliations included 84 items totaling approximately $574,000 that were older than 90 days. Of the thirty custodial bank accounts selected for testing for December 2002, we did not observe reconciling items older than 90 days. March 14, 2003 Ex-99.2 (a) March 14, 2003 As of and for the year ended December 31, 2002, Saxon Mortgage Services, Inc. (the "Company") has complied, in all material respects, with the Company's established minimum servicing standards for mortgage loans as set forth in Appendix I (the "Standards"), except as noted in the following paragraph. The Standards are based on the Mortgage Bankers' Association of America's Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers. In four of the thirty custodial bank accounts selected for testing for May 2002, the reconciliations included 84 items totaling approximately $574,000 that were older than 90 days. As of and for this same period, the Company had in effect a fidelity bond in the amount of $15 million and errors and omissions policy in the amount of $10 million. ____________________________ Dennis G.
