RMBS
June 30, 2010

DBRS has today assigned the following ratings to the Trust Certificates issued by J.P. Morgan Resecuritization Trust, Series 2010-5 (the Trust).

-- $17.7 million Class 1-A-1* rated at AAA
-- $19.3 million Class 1-A-2** rated at AA
-- $21.2 million Class 1-A-3** rated at “A”
-- $1.6 million Class 1-A-5* rated at AA
-- $1.9 million Class 1-A-6* rated at “A”

There are a total of three groups in this resecuritization trust. DBRS rates Group 1, which consists of one senior residential mortgage-backed security (RMBS). The ratings on the certificates reflect the credit enhancement provided by subordination and the quality of the underlying asset in Group 1. The Base Certificates are exchangeable for the Exchangeable Certificates and vice versa, in the related combinations described in Exhibit F of the private placement memorandum.

Other than the specified classes above, DBRS does not rate any other certificates in this transaction.

Interest and principal payments on the certificates will be made one business day following the underlying distribution date (the 25th of each month), commencing in July 2010. Within Group 1, interest payments will be distributed on a pro rata basis to the certificates and principal payments will be distributed on a sequential basis to the certificates until the certificate principal balance has been reduced to zero.

Any losses realized from the underlying securities will be allocated reverse sequentially to the certificates within each group until their principal balances have been reduced to zero.

The DBRS rated group is a resecuritization of one seasoned senior RMBS represented by one real estate mortgage investment conduit (REMIC). The REMIC trust is backed by a pool of prime, fixed-rate, first lien, one- to four-family residential mortgages.
