DBRS Morningstar Confirms Rating on the Remaining Class of Multi Security Asset Trust LP, Series 2005-RR4
CMBSDBRS, Inc. (DBRS Morningstar) confirmed the Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-RR4, Class N issued by Multi Security Asset Trust LP, Series 2005-RR4 (MSAT 2005-RR4) at CCC (sf). There is no trend, as the Class N certificate has a rating that does not typically carry a trend in commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) ratings.
The rating confirmation reflects DBRS Morningstar’s unchanged credit view for the only outstanding underlying bond. The Class H certificate of PMAC 1999-C1 (not rated by DBRS Morningstar) is the remaining bond that contributes to the MSAT 2005-RR4 structure. Since the last rating action, there have been minimal changes to the performance for the underlying assets left outstanding in the PMAC 1999-C1 transaction. The largest remaining asset in the transaction, Regal Cinemas, Inc. (93.2% of the current underlying pool balance), is secured by a single-tenant Regal Cinemas movie theater in Fredericksburg, Virginia, with a lease that runs through June 2023, co-terminous with the loan’s original maturity. Performance has typically hovered around breakeven, but with restrictions imposed after the onset of the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) pandemic, the tenant became delinquent on rental payments and transferred to special servicing. The asset is now real estate owned.
A November 2020 appraisal valued the property at $3.1 million, which is significantly below the issuance value of $8.2 million and suggests a loan-to-value (LTV) ratio of nearly 150% on the outstanding trust exposure of approximately $4.4 million. The high LTV and the erosion of credit support in the underlying capital structure suggests a realized loss to the rated certificate is possible.
