The ratings on class B-1, B-2, B-3 and B-4 certificates reflect each certificate's respective level of subordination.
The ratings also reflect the quality of the underlying mortgage collateral, the primary servicing capabilities of Bank of America Mortgage, Inc. (rated 'RPS1' by Fitch) and Fitch's confidence in the integrity of the legal and financial structure of the transaction.
