RATING METHODOLOGY
The principal methodology used in these ratings was "Moody's Approach
to Rating RMBS Using the MILAN Framework" published in December 2020 and
available at https://www.moodys.com/researchdocumentcontentpage.aspx?docid=PBS_1248130.
Alternatively, please see the Rating Methodologies page on www.moodys.com.mx
for a copy of this methodology.
The Spanish language version of the "Moody's Approach to Rating RMBS Using
the MILAN Framework"of December 2020 and available at https://www.moodys.com/researchdocumentcontentpage.aspx?docid=PBS_1248133
is the current version registered at the Comisión Nacional Bancaria
y de Valores ("CNBV") and, therefore, is the document
to be used in ratings assigned by Moody's de México, S.A.
de C.V. Institución Calificadora de Valores ("MDM").
The corresponding English language version of such methodology,
however, is already outdated for other jurisdictions and therefore
cannot be employed by MDM's affiliates for the assignment of ratings
of similar securities or entities in such other jurisdictions.
Other methodologies and factors that may have been considered for the
ratings can also be found at www.moodys.com.mx in
the Rating Methodologies sub-directory under the Research &
Ratings tab.

Moody's National Scale Credit Ratings (NSRs) are intended as relative
measures of creditworthiness among debt issues and issuers within a country,
enabling market participants to better differentiate relative risks.
NSRs differ from Moody's global scale credit ratings in that they are
not globally comparable with the full universe of Moody's rated entities,
but only with NSRs for other rated debt issues and issuers within the
same country. NSRs are designated by a ".nn"
country modifier signifying the relevant country, as in ".za"
for South Africa. For further information on Moody's approach to
national scale credit ratings, please refer to Moody's Credit rating
Methodology published in May 2016 entitled "Mapping National Scale Ratings
from Global Scale Ratings". While NSRs have no inherent absolute
meaning in terms of default risk or expected loss, a historical
probability of default consistent with a given NSR can be inferred from
the GSR to which it maps back at that particular point in time.
For information on the historical default rates associated with different
global scale rating categories over different investment horizons,
please see https://www.moodys.com/researchdocumentcontentpage.aspx?docid=PBC_1280297.
