The four largest loans, representing 77% of the pool, are in special servicing, and the fifth is on the master servicer's watchlist, the rating agency said. Moody's has estimated aggregate losses of approximately $19.4 million for all the specially serviced loans. Moody's can be found online at http://www.moodys.com.
