New York, May 19, 2011 -- Moody's Investors Service has downgraded the ratings of 83 tranches,
upgraded the ratings of two tranches, and confirmed the ratings
of 35 tranches from 25 deals issued by GMAC-RFC. The collateral
backing these deals primarily consists of first-lien, fixed
and adjustable rate "scratch and dent" residential mortgages.
Scratch and Dent deals are classified outside of our primary categorizations
(Prime Jumbo, Subprime, Option ARMs and Alt-A) for
a number of reasons. The pools may include mortgages that have
been originated outside an originator's program guidelines in some way,
or mortgages where borrowers missed payments in the past. These
pools may also include loans with document defects at origination that
were since rectified. Due to the varied content of Scratch and
Dent mortgage pools, which can range from seasoned prime-like
loans to non-prime loans that were seriously delinquent at the
time of securitization, credit quality of these pools varies considerably.
RATINGS RATIONALE
The actions are a result of deteriorating performance of Scratch and Dent
pools under stressed housing and macroeconomic conditions. The
actions reflect Moody's updated loss expectations on Scratch and Dent
pools.
The principal methodology used in these ratings is described in the Monitoring
and Performance Review section in "Moody's Approach to Rating US
Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities" published in December 2008.
Other methodologies used include "US RMBS Surveillance Methodology for
Scratch and Dent" published in May 2011, which accounts for the
deteriorating performance and outlook.
Moody's final rating actions are based on current levels of credit enhancement,
collateral performance and updated pool-level loss expectations.
Moody's took into account credit enhancement provided by seniority,
cross-collateralization, excess spread, time tranching,
and other structural features within the senior note waterfalls.
The above mentioned approach " US RMBS Surveillance Methodology for Scratch
and Dent" is adjusted slightly when estimating losses on pools left with
a small number of loans to account for the volatile nature of small pools.
Even if a few loans in a small pool become delinquent, there could
be a large increase in the overall pool delinquency level due to the concentration
risk. To project losses on pools with fewer than 100 loans,
Moody's first estimates a "baseline" average rate of new delinquencies
ranging from 3% for prime-like loans to 11% for non-prime
loans in Scratch and Dent pools.. The baseline rate is generally
higher than the average rate of new delinquencies for larger pools.
Once the baseline rate is set, further adjustments are made based
on 1) the number of loans remaining in the pool and 2) the level of current
delinquencies in the pool. The fewer the number of loans remaining
in the pool, the higher the volatility in performance. Once
the loan count in a pool falls below 75, the rate of delinquency
is increased by 1% for every loan less than 75. For example,
for a near-prime Scratch and Dent pool with 74 loans , the
adjusted rate of new delinquency would be 3.03%.
In addition, if the current delinquency level in a small pool is
low, future delinquencies are expected to reflect this trend.
To account for that, the rate calculated above is multiplied by
a factor ranging from 0.75 to 2.50 for current delinquencies
ranging from less than 10% to greater than 50% respectively.
Delinquencies for subsequent years and ultimate expected losses are projected
using the approach described in the methodology publication.
Certain tranches in transactions serviced by GMAC Mortgage, LLC's
(GMACM), were placed on review for possible downgrade in 2010 due
to two concerns regarding the servicer's practices. Firstly,
GMACM used shared custodial bank accounts for multiple RMBS transactions
and secondly, GMACM had to suspend foreclosures in 25 states due
to irregularities in its foreclosure processes. As GMACM is a subsidiary
of C rated Residential Capital, LLC (RFC), in case of a default,
losses could have been absorbed by the trusts.
Since the tranches were placed on review, GMACM has eliminated the
use of a common bank account across RMBS deals and set up individual accounts
for each transaction. Also, GMACM has reviewed and revamped
its foreclosure process, and has lifted its suspension of foreclosure
sales and evictions on a case by case basis.
Today's ratings actions are based on recent pool performance and
the available credit enhancement. Moody's is not keeping
these bond under further review due to the two issues highlighted above
as they have been resolved.
However, the state attorneys general are engaged in ongoing discussions
with several servicers regarding loan modifications and foreclosure procedures.
The ultimate settlement of those discussions may entail fines, loan
forgiveness, cash payments to borrowers or other features that could
reduce future cash flows to RMBS investors. Moody's will
continue to monitor the outcome and assess future credit implications
on the ratings as the situation evolves.
Certain securities, as noted below, are insured by financial
guarantors. For securities insured by a financial guarantor,
the rating on the securities is the higher of (i) the guarantor's financial
strength rating and (ii) the current underlying rating (i.e.,
absent consideration of the guaranty) on the security. The principal
methodology used in determining the underlying rating is the same methodology
for rating securities that do not have a financial guaranty and is as
described earlier. RMBS securities wrapped by Ambac Assurance Corporation
are rated at their underlying rating without consideration of Ambac's
guaranty.
The primary source of assumption uncertainty is the current macroeconomic
environment, in which unemployment levels remain high, and
weakness persists in the housing market. Overall, Moody's
assumes a further 5% decline in home prices with stabilization
in late 2011, accompanied by continued stress in national employment
levels through that timeframe.

Moody's Investors Service received and took into account one or more third
party due diligence reports on the underlying assets or financial instruments
in this transaction and the due diligence reports had a neutral impact
on the rating.
