CM FTID CMO PRICING Interactive Data (IDC)
For CMOs, depending upon the characteristics of a given tranche, a volatility-driven, multi-dimensional single cash flow stream model or option-adjusted spread (OAS) model is used. For ABS and CMBS issues, a single cash flow stream model is utilized.
Multiple pricing options apply. For CMOs, depending upon the characteristics of a given tranche, a volatility-driven, multi-dimensional single cash flow stream model or option-adjusted spread (OAS) model is used. For ABS and CMBS issues, a single cash flow stream model is utilized. Evaluated s as follows: a. A bullet (non-call) spread scale is created for each issuer for maturities going out to forty years. These spreads represent credit risk and are obtained from the new issue market, secondary trading, and dealer quotes. Each issuer-spread line has the capability to link parent/subsidiary and related companies to capture relevant movements. b. An Option Adjusted Spread (OAS) model is incorporated to adjust spreads of issues that have early redemption features. c. Final spreads are added to both a 15: and 16: (ET) U.S. Treasury curve. A special cash discounting yield/price routine calculates prices from final yields to accommodate odd coupon payment dates typical of medium-term notes. d. Evaluators maintain quality by surveying the dealer community, obtaining benchmark quotes, incorporating relevant trade data, and updating spreads daily. Note: Floating-rate medium-term notes are evaluated using the Floating-Rate Note Evaluation Model which generates evaluations for floating-rate notes by calculating current
and future coupons, then discounting each cash flow by an appropriate discount margin. Trades, bid price or spread, two-sided markets, quotes, benchmark curves including but not limited to treasury benchmarks and LIBOR and swap curves, market data feeds such as MSRB, financial statements, discount rate, capital rates, trustee reports. Priced by incorporating evaluations and/or actual trade data and volatilities for actively traded benchmark bonds, as well as callable indicative grids, based on observations and trading activities, proprietary models to calculate additional inputs based on market assumptions, and on performance data. Using these models, evaluators determine spread curve (for bullet bonds) and the OAS curve (for callable bonds) for actively traded debentures, may also apply rules based adjustments to pricing assumptions to adjust the spread and/or OAS based on features, liquidity and/or similar market-related factors.

In addition, evaluators maintain more generic yield curves for industry sectors. • For bonds with embedded options, evaluators utilize a proprietary corporate bond evaluation model to calculate OAS (option adjusted spread) on selected benchmark issues using market volatility. Evaluators may also apply rules based adjustments to adjust their spread assumptions based on coupon and/or maturity and/or liquidity or other similar market factors. Priced by incorporating indenture information for high yield bonds. Evaluators have access to the market to determine prices, yields, and other market assumptions through actual traded prices, and through contacts with the broker-dealer community, indicative prices for various liquid high yield bonds, and also for bonds that have defaulted, transacted prices on specific bonds and bond indices, as well as bid lists and general market color provided by other market participants. Evaluators use proprietary models to calculate additional inputs based on market data and assumptions. Evaluators determine yields for the sample bonds, using prices received from the trading desk, real time color to maintain yield curves for each issuer which may be further differentiated by rating and seniority. In the case of defaults, evaluators use the trading desk price across all maturities of bonds in each seniority bucket.

This logic is based on deal and tranche characteristics such as, but not limited to, shelf, structure, credit support, position in the capital structure, and the effects of the deal triggers on the cash flow waterfall; collateral characteristics such as, but not limited to, loan vintage, geography, LTV ratio, FICO score, average loan size and documentation; actual collateral performance data such as CPR, CDR, severity, delinquency and loss; and/or model projections for average life, duration, convexity, and future CPR, CDR, severity, and expected collateral loss as compared to comparable vintage performance. Such model projections may be compared to projections for other comparable deals, and as a result one or more pricing factors may be adjusted.

Investment grade preferred stocks are evaluated by calculating the appropriate spread over a comparable U.S. Treasury security for each issue. These spreads represent the amount of additional yield required to account for the risks inherent with preferred stocks, including credit, refunding and liquidity. Evaluators obtain benchmark quotes on liquid issues, follow both the listed and new issue market, and focus on changing market conditions. Preferred stocks can be evaluated to a current yield, to an average life or to a redemption date. Special attention is paid to issues with active sinking funds and early redemption features. Issues are benchmarked daily with a 15: and 16: (ET) U.S. Treasury curve. Unlike bonds, preferred stocks trade flat or "dirty." Dividends accrue each period and are included in the evaluated price. Vendor's model utilizes dividend information from various sources in order to capture the ex-dividend date. Preferred stocks are evaluated as dollar values. 4.

Sources are reviewed on the basis of their historical accuracy for individual issues and maturity ranges. Evaluations are marked at 15: and 16: (ET). 2. Priced by evaluators with access to the market to determine equity spot and forward prices, equity volatilities and interest rate. Proprietary models are used for pricing vanilla and exotic products. A Black-76 model is used for pricing single-name and index equity vanilla options, and uses discrete dividends which are reflected in the forward price, and evaluators incorporate future market expectations for a given stock or stock index. Equity total return swaps pricing includes both asset and interest rate legs. The total return of the equity leg includes dividend accrual and capital accrual. Pricing of the interest rate leg is similar to that of an interest rate swap. In the case when the swap is callable, the model calculates the total return
of the equity leg up to the call date and the accrued interest for the interest rate leg. Evaluators use proprietary models; a closed form Black-Scholes model is used for pricing Asian options, while a finite difference model with local volatility is used for barrier options. Evaluators also use income approach, which discounts future cash flows to the net present value of the derivative. 3.

Multiple pricing options apply. IDC and Pricing Direct pricing information only, no information available from Reuters. 1. Evaluated by obtaining feeds from a number of live data sources including active market makers and inter-dealer brokers. Sources are reviewed on the basis
of their historical accuracy for individual issues and maturity ranges. Evaluations are marked at 15: and 16: (ET). 2. Priced by evaluators with access to the market to determine equity spot and forward prices, equity volatilities and interest rate. Proprietary models are used for pricing vanilla and exotic products. A Black-76 model is used for pricing single-name and index equity vanilla options, and uses discrete dividends which are reflected in the forward price, and evaluators incorporate future market expectations for a given stock or stock index. Equity total return swaps pricing includes both asset and interest rate legs. The total return of the equity leg includes dividend accrual and capital accrual. Pricing of the interest rate leg is similar to that of an interest rate swap. In the case when the swap is callable, the model calculates the total return of the equity leg up to the call date and the accrued interest for the interest rate leg. Evaluators use proprietary models; a closed form Black-Scholes model is used for pricing Asian options, while a finite difference model with local volatility is used for barrier options. Evaluators also use income approach, which discounts future cash flows to the net present value of the derivative.
