RATINGS RATIONALE
The actions are a result of the recent performance of the underlying pools
and reflect Moody's updated loss expectations on the pools. In
addition, the downgrades reflect the exposure of the affected bonds
to tail risk due to the pro-rata pay nature of the transactions.
In addition, Class Cl. VI-M-1 from CSFB Mortgage-Backed
Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2003-AR28 is backed
by an overcollateralized pool and was incorrectly placed on review in
the June 19, 2013 rating action addressing tail risk in RMBS Shifting
Interest/Pro-rata deals. The rating on this tranche should
not have been placed on review and it is being confirmed in today's
rating action.
The principal methodology used in these ratings was "US RMBS Surveillance
Methodology" published in June 2013. Please see the Credit
Policy page on www.moodys.com for a copy of this methodology.
As detailed in the methodology noted above, subject to the results
of a stress scenario analysis, Moody's caps the ratings of bonds
exposed to tail-end risk to A3 (sf) or below, unless the
bonds are expected to pay off within a year or are expected to pay off
well before the underlying pool is expected to be small pool (100 loans).
The primary source of assumption uncertainty is the uncertainty in our
central macroeconomic forecast and performance volatility due to servicer-related
issues. The unemployment rate fell from 8.2% in July
2012 to 7.4% in July 2013. Moody's forecasts an unemployment
central range of 7.0% to 8.0% for the 2013
year. Moody's expects house prices to continue to rise in 2013.
Performance of RMBS continues to remain highly dependent on servicer procedures.
Any change resulting from servicing transfers or other policy or regulatory
change can impact the performance of these transactions.

REGULATORY DISCLOSURES
Moody's received and took into account one or more third party assessments
on the due diligence performed regarding the underlying assets or financial
instruments in these transactions and the assessments had a neutral impact
on the rating.
In conducting surveillance of these credits, Moody's considered
performance data contained in servicer and remittance reports.
Moody's obtains servicer reports on these transactions on a periodic basis,
at least annually.
For ratings issued on a program, series or category/class of debt,
this announcement provides certain regulatory disclosures in relation
to each rating of a subsequently issued bond or note of the same series
or category/class of debt or pursuant to a program for which the ratings
are derived exclusively from existing ratings in accordance with Moody's
rating practices. For ratings issued on a support provider,
this announcement provides certain regulatory disclosures in relation
to the rating action on the support provider and in relation to each particular
rating action for securities that derive their credit ratings from the
support provider's credit rating. For provisional ratings,
this announcement provides certain regulatory disclosures in relation
to the provisional rating assigned, and in relation to a definitive
rating that may be assigned subsequent to the final issuance of the debt,
in each case where the transaction structure and terms have not changed
prior to the assignment of the definitive rating in a manner that would
have affected the rating. For further information please see the
ratings tab on the issuer/entity page for the respective issuer on www.moodys.com.
For any affected securities or rated entities receiving direct credit
support from the primary entity(ies) of this rating action, and
whose ratings may change as a result of this rating action, the
associated regulatory disclosures will be those of the guarantor entity.
Exceptions to this approach exist for the following disclosures,
if applicable to jurisdiction: Ancillary Services, Disclosure
to rated entity, Disclosure from rated entity.
