--Floater Receipts, Series 2016-XG0006 'AA/F1', Stable Outlook; Residual Receipts, Series 2016-XG0006 'AA', Stable Outlook.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

The long-term 'AA', Stable Outlook ratings assigned to the series 2016-XG0006 Floater and Residual Receipts are based on the rating that Fitch has assigned to the Community Development Administration Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development Residential Revenue Bonds, 2007 Series D (rated 'AA', Stable Outlook) that have been deposited in the trust.

The short-term 'F1' rating assigned to the series 2016-XG0006 Floater Receipts is based on the liquidity facility provided by Bank of America, National Association (rated 'A+/F1', Stable Outlook), which has a stated expiration date of April 15, 2017, unless such date is extended or earlier terminated.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

The short-term rating assigned to the Floater Receipts will be adjusted upward or downward in conjunction with the short-term rating of the bank, and, in some cases, the long-term rating of the underlying bonds deposited in the trust. The long-term ratings assigned to the Floater Receipts and Residual Receipts are exclusively tied to the creditworthiness of the underlying bonds deposited in the trust and will reflect all changes to such rating.
