It is a condition to the issuance of the notes that each of the notes receive the ratings listed above.
The ratings of the notes address the likelihood of the payment of principal and interest on the notes according to their terms. Each rating agency rating the notes will monitor the ratings using its normal surveillance procedures. Any rating agency may change or withdraw an assigned rating at any time. Any rating action taken by one rating agency may not necessarily be taken by the other rating agency.
None of the sponsor, depositor, servicer, administrator, indenture trustee, Delaware trustee, owner trustee or any of their affiliates will be required to monitor any changes to the ratings on these notes.
A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold notes. The ratings of the notes address the likelihood of the payment of principal and interest on the notes in accordance with their terms. A rating agency may subsequently lower or withdraw its rating of any class of the notes. If this happens, no person or entity will be obligated to provide any additional credit enhancement for the notes.
