PRESS RELEASE: Moody's Investors Service Has Assigned The Rating Of Aa2/Vmig 1 To The Barclays Capital Inc. (MUNI. DERIV.) Floating Rate Trust Receipts, Series 2010-63B

The following is a press release from Moody's Investors Service: NEW YORK, June 23, 2010 -- Moody's Investors Service has assigned the rating of Aa2/VMIG 1 to the Barclays Capital Inc. (Muni. Deriv.) Floating Rate Trust Receipts, Series 2010-63B. The long-term portion of the rating on the trust certificates is based upon Moody's rating of the underlying bond, State of Connecticut General Obligation Refunding Bonds, 2010 Series C, held in the trust and will be changed whenever the rating on the underlying bond is changed. The short-term portion of the rating on the trust certificates is based upon (i) the short-term rating of Barclays Bank PLC; (ii) the long-term rating of the underlying bond; and (iii) the likelihood of an early termination of the liquidity facility without a final mandatory tender. Events that would cause the liquidity facility to terminate without a mandatory purchase of the certificates are directly related to the credit quality of the underlying bond. Therefore, the short-term rating will be changed whenever the rating of the liquidity provider changes and may be changed if the long-term rating on the underlying bond changes. The principal methodology used in rating the issue was Moody's Rating Methodology for Tender Option Bond Programs, published in August 2005 and available on www.moodys.com in the Rating Methodologies sub-directory under the Research & Ratings tab. Other methodologies and factors that may have been considered in the process of rating these issues can also be found in the Rating Methodologies sub-directory on Moody's website.
