Moody’s downgrades Portfolio CDS entered into by JPMorgan USD 300 million of debt securities affected

Tokyo, July 29, 2009 -- Moody's Investors Service announced today that it 
has downgraded the rating of the credit default swap ("CDS") entered into 
between JPMorgan Chase Bank NA ("JPMorgan") and Alto Credit Products Co., 
Ltd. This CDS primarily references global corporate entities.

The rating action taken today is the result of the deteriorating credit
quality of the transaction's reference portfolio. Some names suffered
downward credit rating migration greater than had been anticipated by
its forward looking measures, which includes but is not limited to 
Syncora Guarantee Inc. and CIT Group Inc.

Moody's initially analyzed, and continues to monitor this transaction
primarily using the methodology for corporate synthetic CDOs as described 
in Moody's Special Report:

-- Moody's Approach to Rating Corporate Collateralized Synthetic 
Obligations (March 2009).
