Fitch Ratings has been notified of a Collateralization Event that has occurred for each of the below referenced transactions with Deutsche Bank AG (Deutsche Bank) as a derivative counterparty. Six of these transactions have an existing Credit Support Annex (CSA) in place, while Deutsche Bank is proposing to execute new CSAs for the remaining seven.
Deutsche Bank is rated by Fitch, with a rating of 'A+/F1+', Outlook Stable as of Dec. 15, 2011. Fitch does not expect the Collateralization Event and remedies proposed (if any) by Deutsche Bank AG to have any impact on the ratings of the notes in these transactions since Deutsche Bank AG remains an eligible counterparty for these transactions, as defined in Fitch's 'Counterparty Criteria for Structured Finance Transactions', dated May 30, 2012. Should Deutsche Bank be downgraded below Fitch's relevant eligibility threshold, as described in then applicable criteria, Fitch will determine whether the remedies effective at that time sufficiently mitigate the transactions' exposure in the context of then current notes' ratings and remaining derivative terms.
Fitch is not a party to the transaction and therefore does not provide consent or approval to changes in its terms, as that remains the sole preserve of the transaction parties. Fitch expects to be notified by the trustee when or if the proposed amendments are executed either in part or in their entirety.
