Granular Portfolio: The loan is secured by 105 self-storage properties located across 35 states. No single property represents more than 5.79% of NOI.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Fitch found that the property could withstand a 65.0% decline in value and an approximate 47.3% decline in Fitch's net cash flow prior to experiencing \\$1 of loss to the 'AAAsf' rated classes.

Fitch performed several stress scenarios in which the Fitch net cash flow (NCF) was stressed. Fitch determined that a 52.3% reduction in Fitch's NCF would cause the notes to break even at a 1.0x DSCR, based on the actual debt service.

Fitch evaluated the sensitivity of the ratings for class A and found that an 14.3% decline in Fitch NCF would result in a one-category downgrade, while a 39.3% decline would resulting a downgrade to below investment grade.
