  2. Overview • Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) defines unenhanced affordable housing projects (“AHP”) as public-purpose real estate supported by below-market rents. • While many affordable housing transactions are structured with credit enhancement, AHP projects are sized and rated based on the strength of the underlying real estate. • The analysis of AHP projects focuses on the following criteria: • Real estate quality • Legal structure • Property performance • Strength of Sponsor • Construction risk (if any) and lease-up risk • It usually takes 90-120 days to close (this may be expedited with an experienced team)

  3. Third party reports and supporting documentation • Standard & Poor’s will generally review independent third-party reports as part of the rating process. These reports include: • Profile reports1 • Appraisal • Market study • Phase I Environmental • Physical needs assessment (PNA) • Financial audits (most recent three years) • Original HAP contract and HAP assignment • Current and historical rent rolls Notes: 1 Profile report templates are provided by Standard & Poor’s and include Sponsor, Property Manager, Asset Manager, and Property

  4. Financing Assumptions • While each AHP is different, Standard & Poor’s will generally look for the following assumptions in the financing: • DSC of 1.20x1 • Underwriting is based on “stabilized” NOI • Occupancy assumptions based on historical trends • Reserve fund funded with proceeds and sized at 50% maximum annual debt service • Repair and replacement reserves • $325 to $350 per unit for properties that are 15 to 20 years old • S&P will also refer to the PNA report • 35-year amortization Notes: 1 DSC of 1.40x for AHP without Section 8 HAP Contract

  5. With interest rates below historical averages, the S&P execution is very attractive1,2 Notes: Reflects market conditions as of April 20, 2012 Long bonds (30+ years) usually price at a credit spread of 230-250 basis points over MMD

  6. Fixed Rate Underwriting Comparison1,2 Notes: Reflects market conditions as of April 20, 2012 DSC for Standard & Poor’s AHP transaction without Section 8 HAP contract is 1.40x

  7. Case Study – GMF Stonybrook Apartments • Bond proceeds were used to finance the acquisition and rehabilitation of an 216-unit apartment complex known as Stonybrook Apartments, located in Riviera Beach in Palm Beach County, Florida. • Characteristics of the financing include: • First mortgage lien on the property • Projected DSC of 1.25x • Property secured by a Section 8 HAP contract • Reserve fund sized at 6-months maximum annual debt service • 35-year amortization $14,725,000 Florida Capital Trust Agency (Multifamily Revenue Bonds) April 11, 2012 Notes: 1 Due to 2% cost of issuance test, taxable tail was issued The Sponsor’s all-in cost of capital for 35-years was 5.44%
