DBRS Morningstar Downgrades Four Classes, Discontinues and Withdraws Three Classes of GE Commercial Mortgage Corporation, Series 2005-C1

DBRS, Inc. (DBRS Morningstar) downgraded its rating on the Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-C1, Class D issued by GE Commercial Mortgage Corporation, Series 2005-C1 to D (sf) from C (sf).

In addition, DBRS Morningstar downgraded its ratings on Classes E, F, and G to D (sf) from C (sf). Following the downgrades, DBRS Morningstar also discontinued and withdrew its ratings on Classes E, F, and G as a result of realized losses that affected all remaining classes in the transaction, including Class D, according to the January 2020 remittance. The realized losses incurred to Classes E, F, and G reduced the principal balances to zero.

This effectively concludes DBRS Morningstar’s surveillance of the transaction as DBRS Morningstar will discontinue the ratings assigned to the outstanding classes in 30 business days.

All ratings are subject to surveillance, which could result in ratings being upgraded, downgraded, placed under review, confirmed, or discontinued by DBRS Morningstar.

DBRS Morningstar notes that this press release was amended on January 3, 2024, to reflect the downgrade of Classes E, F, and G.
