REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
The ServiceMaster Company
Memphis, Tennessee
We have audited the consolidated statements of financial position of The ServiceMaster Company and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31,
2008 and 2007 (Successor Company), and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholder's equity, and cash flows for the year ended
December 31, 2008, the period January 1, 2007 through July 24, 2007 (Predecessor Company), the period July 25, 2007 through December 31, 2007
(Successor Company), and the year ended December 31, 2006 (Predecessor Company), and the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2008, and have issued our reports thereon dated March 27, 2009 (which express an unqualified opinion and include an explanatory paragraph
concerning the change in basis for the consolidated financial statements for the period after July 24, 2007 as a result of the application of purchase accounting
as of July 25, 2007); such consolidated financial statements and reports are included elsewhere in this Form 10-K. Our audits also included the consolidated
financial statement schedule of the Company listed in Item 15. This consolidated financial statement schedule is the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion based on our audits. In our opinion, such consolidated financial statement schedule, when considered
in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
