CLOS & STRUCTURED CREDIT

SEC RULE 17G-7 REPORT OF R&WS:


Avery Point VII CLO, Limited (Second Refinancing) Deal v1.0 Compared To CLO, SME, Other Cash Flow CDO &
ABS v3.0
The description in this report of the asset-pool related representations, warranties and enforcement mechanisms available to investors in the Transaction (this “17g-7 Report”) is based solely upon the forms of the offering and transaction documents that have
been provided to Moody's by the issuer as of the date of this 17g-7 Report (or as of the date of any subsequent credit rating report issued by Moody's that refers to or includes this 17g-7 Report, to the extent so stated in such subsequent credit rating report). The
issuer has advised Moody's that such forms of documents conform in all material respects to the documents in effect for the Transaction as of the date of this 17g-7 Report (or as of the date of the subsequent credit rating report issued by Moody's that refers to
or includes this 17g-7 Report). Moody's has not undertaken any other investigation into the accuracy of the issuer's statement.

In rating the Transaction, Moody's evaluates the representations, warranties and enforcement mechanisms contained in the offering and transaction documents solely as and to the extent described in its rating criteria. Further, Moody's rating may depend
significantly on factors other than such representations, warranties and enforcement mechanisms. Moody's does not in this 17g-7 Report provide any opinion or recommendation as to the adequacy or effectiveness of the representations, warranties and
enforcement mechanisms described herein (whether with respect to the Transaction or the Benchmark). Investors must conduct their own analysis of the adequacy and effectiveness, and of the legal and other implications, of the representations, warranties and
enforcement mechanisms in the Transaction.

Moody's has prepared the Benchmark based solely on its review of documentation for a sampling of transactions previously rated by Moody's and its knowledge of industry standards and the market in general. In rating such prior transactions, Moody's likely
relied significantly on factors other than the representations, warranties and enforcement mechanisms contained in the related transaction documents. Except to the extent described herein, Moody's has not undertaken to determine whether or to what extent
the representations, warranties or enforcement mechanisms in such prior transactions differ from those in transactions that have not been rated by Moody's. Further, in determining which transactions are similar to the Transaction for purposes of preparing this
17g-7 Report, Moody's has relied on its own perception and opinion and has necessarily treated certain transactions as not being "similar" to each other for purposes of this 17g-7 Report, even though they may be similar in one or more respects. Accordingly, there
may be transactions in the marketplace that are similar in one or more respects to the Transaction and contain one or more representations, warranties or enforcement mechanisms that differ from or are not included in the Benchmark or in the documents for
the Transaction.

The asset-backed securities market is dynamic and continuously evolving. Accordingly, representations, warranties and enforcement mechanisms in asset-backed securities transactions may change or differ over time or from one transaction to another,
depending on circumstances or the perceptions of market participants. Moody's may periodically update the Benchmark; however, there can be no assurance that the Benchmark will always reflect the current state of the market in all material respects.

Moody's is not issuing or offering any securities in the Transaction or otherwise participating in any such issuance or offering. Any such offer can only be made through the issuer. Neither the issuer of the securities referred to herein, nor any other person, is
authorized to include this 17g-7 Report (or any portion hereof) in any registration statement, prospectus, free writing prospectus, private placement memorandum or any other disclosure document or regulatory filing, or otherwise to use this 17g-7 Report,
directly or indirectly, to sell or offer to sell, or to buy or offer to buy, any security.

As used in this 17g-7 Report, which has been prepared for a Non-RMBS transaction, the language “no comparable item” means no comparable representation, warranty or enforcement mechanism (or element thereof) is disclosed in the offering documents, i.e.,
explicitly stated in (1) the offering documents, (2) any document that is incorporated by reference into, or attached as an exhibit to, the offering documents, (3) any document referenced in the offering documents as expressly qualifying information contained in
the offering documents or (4) any document to which the disclosure in the offering documents is either (i) expressly stated to be subject or (ii) expressly stated to be construed together with.

This 17g-7 Report is made available to comply with Rule 17g-7 under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Benchmark used in this 17g-7 Report has been prepared based on a review of United States transactions only.

Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., a wholly-owned credit rating agency subsidiary of Moody’s Corporation (“MCO”), hereby discloses that most issuers of debt securities (including corporate and municipal bonds, debentures, notes and commercial paper) and preferred stock rated by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. have, prior to
