Cl. A, Definitive Rating Assigned Aaa (sf)

Cl. X-1, Definitive Rating Assigned Aa3 (sf)

Cl. B, Definitive Rating Assigned Aa2 (sf)

Cl. C, Definitive Rating Assigned A3 (sf)

Cl. GPI, Definitive Rating Assigned Baa3 (sf)

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Certificates are collateralized by two floating rate loans secured by 41 properties. The ratings are based on the collateral and the structure of the transaction.

Moody's CMBS ratings methodology combines both commercial real estate and structured finance analysis. Based on commercial real estate analysis, Moody's determines the credit quality of each mortgage loan and calculates an expected loss on a loan specific basis. Under structured finance, the credit enhancement for each certificate typically depends on the expected frequency, severity, and timing of future losses. Moody's also considers a range of qualitative issues as well as the transaction's structural and legal aspects.

The credit risk of loans is determined primarily by two factors: 1) Moody's assessment of the probability of default, which is largely driven by each loan's DSCR, and 2) Moody's assessment of the severity of loss upon a default, which is largely driven by each loan's LTV ratio.

The Moody's Stressed DSCR for the Pooled Trust is 1.93X which is higher than the 2007 large transaction average of 1.63X. Moody's LTV ratio for the Pooled Trust is 57.8%, which is lower than the 2007 large loan transaction average of 63.3%.

Moody's also considers both loan level diversity and property level diversity when selecting a ratings approach. With respect to loan level diversity, the pool's loan level Herfindahl score is 1.7. The score is lower than Herfindahl scores represented by large loan, multi-borrower transactions previously rated by Moody's. With respect to property level diversity, the pool's property level Herfindahl score is 10.4. The transaction's property diversity profile is consistent with most previously rated large loan multi-borrower transactions.

Moody's grades properties on a scale of 1 to 5 (best to worst) and considers those grades when assessing the likelihood of debt payment. The factors considered include property age, quality of construction, location, market, and tenancy. The pool's weighted average property quality grade is 2.1, which is consistent when compared to other deals rated by Moody's since 2009.

The methodologies used in this rating were "Moody's Approach to Rating CMBS Large Loan/Single Borrower Transactions" published in July 2000, and "Moody's Approach to Rating Structured Finance Interest-Only Securities" published in February 2012. Please see the Credit Policy page on www.moodys.com for a copy of these methodologies.

Moody's review incorporated the use of the excel-based Large Loan Model v 8.1. The large loan model derives credit enhancement levels based on an aggregation of adjusted loan level proceeds derived from Moody's loan level LTV ratios. Major adjustments to determining proceeds include leverage, loan structure, property type, and sponsorship. These aggregated proceeds are then further adjusted for any pooling benefits associated with loan level diversity, other concentrations and correlations.Moody's analysis also uses the CMBS IO calculator ver1.0, which references the following inputs to calculate the proposed IO rating based on the published methodology: original and current bond ratings and credit assessments; original and current bond balances grossed up for losses for all bonds the IO(s) reference(s) within the transaction; and IO type corresponding to an IO type as defined in the published methodology.

The V Score for this transaction is assessed as Medium, the same as the V score assigned to the U.S. Large Loan CMBS sector. This reflects typical volatility with respect to the critical assumptions used in the rating process as well as an average disclosure of securitization collateral and ongoing performance.

Moody's V Scores provide a relative assessment of the quality of available credit information and the potential variability around the various inputs to a rating determination. The V Score ranks transactions by the potential for significant rating changes owing to uncertainty around the assumptions due to data quality, historical performance, the level of disclosure, transaction complexity, the modeling, and the transaction governance that underlie the ratings. V Scores apply to the entire transaction (rather than individual tranches).

Moody's Parameter Sensitivities: If Moody's value of the collateral used in determining the initial rating were decreased by 5%, 14%, or 22%, the model-indicated rating for the currently rated Aaa class would be Aa1; Aa2; and A1. Parameter Sensitivities are not intended to measure how the rating of the security might migrate over time; rather they are designed to provide a quantitative calculation of how the initial rating might change if key input parameters used in the initial rating process differed. The analysis assumes that the deal has not aged. Parameter Sensitivities only reflect the ratings impact of each scenario from a quantitative/model-indicated standpoint. Qualitative factors are also taken into consideration in the ratings process, so the actual ratings that would be assigned in each case could vary from the information presented in the Parameter Sensitivity analysis.
