The collateral for the transaction is a $1.26 billion non-recourse, first-lien mortgage loan. The fixed-rate loan will be structured with a 10-year Anticipated Repayment Date (ARD), and a 20-year final maturity. During the first 10 years, the loan will require monthly interest-only payments. After the ARD, if the loan is not paid off, a cash sweep period will be triggered for the remainder of the loan term whereby all excess cash flow remaining after the payment of the initial interest rate will be used to pay down the certificates sequentially; provided, that, the corresponding interest-bearing components will be paid down first, then the ARD additional interest, and then the component HRR.<\/p><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260603885897\/en\/2823925\/5\/kbra-logo.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260603885897\/en\/2823925\/22\/kbra-logo.jpg\" \/><\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260603885897\/en\/2823925\/5\/kbra-logo.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260603885897\/en\/2823925\/21\/kbra-logo.jpg\" \/><\/a><p>\nThe loan will be secured by the borrowers\u2019 fee simple interests in a purpose-built data center asset located in New Albany, Ohio, approximately 18 miles northeast of the Columbus CBD. The collateral contains a gross building area (GBA) of approximately 432,824 sf, of which 258,773 sf is data hall space, and provides 66 megawatts (MW) of capacity. The asset has an N+1 UPS redundancy and a designated Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) of less than 1.5. The property is 100% leased to a single hyperscale tenant, a high quality credit worthy tenant (HQCWT) as determined by KBRA, who occupies the data center on a 20-year lease that expires in July 2045.<\/p><p>\nKBRA\u2019s analysis of the transaction included a detailed evaluation of the property\u2019s cash flows using our North American CMBS Property Evaluation Methodology and the application of our North American CMBS Single Borrower &amp; Large Loan Rating Methodology. In addition, KBRA also relied on its Global Structured Finance Counterparty Methodology for assessing counterparty risk in this transaction.<\/p><p>\nThe results of our analysis yielded a KBRA net cash flow (KNCF) for the subject of approximately $84.5 million, which is 18.9% below the issuer\u2019s NCF, and a KBRA value of approximately $1.17 billion, which is 27.2% below the appraiser\u2019s as-is value. The resulting in-trust KBRA Loan to Value (KLTV) is 108.4%. In our analysis of the transaction, we also reviewed and considered third party engineering, environmental, and appraisal reports, the results of our site inspection of the properties, and legal documentation review.<\/p><p>\nTo access ratings and relevant documents, click <a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kbra.com%2Ftransaction%2F69436%2Fratings&amp;esheet=54547223&amp;newsitemid=20260603885897&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=here&amp;index=1&amp;md5=dc5d635bf286e2a2d65ded9c8fcde2d0\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">here<\/a>.<\/p><p>\nClick <a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kbra.com%2Fpublications%2FxTykFvpn%2Fbx-2026-vlt10-pre-sale-report%3F&amp;esheet=54547223&amp;newsitemid=20260603885897&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=here&amp;index=2&amp;md5=567aeba9b86e7f80362457c4aff86095\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">here<\/a> to view the report.<\/p><p>\n<strong>Methodologies<\/strong><\/p><ul class=\"bwlistsquare\">\n<li>\n<a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kbra.com%2Fpublications%2FhrxjTYTm&amp;esheet=54547223&amp;newsitemid=20260603885897&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=CMBS%3A+North+American+CMBS+Property+Evaluation+Methodology&amp;index=3&amp;md5=663a914aa86303d2b0104134180c320e\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">CMBS: North American CMBS Property Evaluation Methodology<\/a><\/li>\n<li>\n<a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kbra.com%2Fpublications%2FHmhXVxdT&amp;esheet=54547223&amp;newsitemid=20260603885897&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=CMBS%3A+North+American+CMBS+Single+Borrower+%26amp%3B+Large+Loan+Rating+Methodology&amp;index=4&amp;md5=501b70d87548114e043a92ce761d125c\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">CMBS: North American CMBS Single Borrower &amp; Large Loan Rating Methodology<\/a><\/li>\n<li>\n<a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kbra.com%2Fpublications%2FRjVgkPtk&amp;esheet=54547223&amp;newsitemid=20260603885897&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Structured+Finance%3A+Global+Structured+Finance+Counterparty+Methodology&amp;index=5&amp;md5=aa19d2c044ef546495e593e20cbdf547\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">Structured Finance: Global Structured Finance Counterparty Methodology<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul><p>\n<strong>Disclosures<\/strong><\/p><p>\nFurther information on key credit considerations, sensitivity analyses that consider what factors can affect these credit ratings and how they could lead to an upgrade or a downgrade, and <a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kbra.com%2Fpublications%2FJZRHwTBd%2F&amp;esheet=54547223&amp;newsitemid=20260603885897&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=ESG+factors&amp;index=6&amp;md5=e8e7864ab7f34a10d9bf5e5dc8bba56d\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">ESG factors<\/a> (where they are a key driver behind the change to the credit rating or rating outlook) can be found in the full rating report referenced above.<\/p><p>\nA description of all substantially material sources that were used to prepare the credit rating and information on the methodology(ies) (inclusive of any material models and sensitivity analyses of the relevant key rating assumptions, as applicable) used in determining the credit rating is available in the Information Disclosure Form(s) located <a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kbra.com%2Ftransaction%2F69436%2Fdisclosures&amp;esheet=54547223&amp;newsitemid=20260603885897&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=here&amp;index=7&amp;md5=2bca8e0a643a5b9018c48851ea8bd95a\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">here<\/a>.<\/p><p>\nInformation on the meaning of each rating category can be located <a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kbra.com%2Funderstanding-ratings%2Frating-scales%2Flong-term-credit-rating&amp;esheet=54547223&amp;newsitemid=20260603885897&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=here&amp;index=8&amp;md5=a0c2f88c6dc930985ff23d1b3806c8d7\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">here<\/a>.<\/p><p>\nFurther disclosures relating to this rating action are available in the Information Disclosure Form(s) referenced above.
