_______________

 

*                    If the aggregate initial principal amount of notes to be issued is $1,052,770,000, the initial pool balance, the reserve account deposit amount, the initial overcollateralization amount and the initial principal amount of each class of notes will be as described in the table above.  If the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes to be issued is $1,315,800,000, the initial pool balance will be $1,429,578,316.37, the reserve account deposit amount will be $9,868,548.85, the initial overcollateralization amount will be $113,778,316.37, which is 7.96% of the initial pool balance and the initial principal amount of each class of notes will be: $204,970,000 for the Class A-1 notes, $486,270,000 for the Class A-2 notes, $423,780,000 for the Class A-3 notes, $134,990,000 for the Class A-4 notes, $39,470,000 for the Class B notes and $26,320,000 for the Class C notes.  For more details about the determination of the initial principal amount of the notes, you should read “Risk Factors — The initial principal amount of the notes is unknown.”

 

(1)                 The reserve account will be funded on the closing date at 0.75% of the initial adjusted pool balance.

(2)                 Overcollateralization is the amount by which the pool balance or the adjusted pool balance exceeds the principal amount of the notes.  The “adjusted pool balance” is the pool balance reduced by the yield supplement overcollateralization amount.  Initially, the overcollateralization for the notes will be approximately zero on an adjusted pool balance basis.

(3)                 All available funds remaining after payments of the senior fees and expenses of the trust, the interest on the notes, any required priority principal payment and any required deposits in the reserve account, including the portion of the remaining available funds that is excess spread, will be used, first, to pay principal of the Class A-1 notes until paid in full and, then, to pay principal of the remaining notes until the targeted overcollateralization amount is reached.

(4)                 The targeted overcollateralization amount will adjust each month and is calculated as described in Credit Enhancement — Overcollateralization.”

(5)                 The yield supplement overcollateralization amount is part of the targeted overcollateralization amount and is calculated as described in Credit Enhancement — Overcollateralization.”

(6)                 Excess spread is available, as a portion of available funds, to make required principal payments on the notes and, as a result, provides a source of funds to offset losses on the receivables and to increase overcollateralization until the targeted overcollateralization amount is reached.

(7)                 All notes other than the Class C notes benefit from subordination of more junior classes to more senior classes.  The order of the subordination varies depending on whether interest or principal is being paid and whether an event of default that results in acceleration has occurred.  For more details about subordination, you should read “Description of the Notes — Priority of Payments,” “Description of the Notes Post-Acceleration Priority of Payments and Credit Enhancement — Subordination.”

(8)                 The residual interest will be held initially by the depositor and represents the right to all funds not needed to make required payments on the notes, pay fees and expenses of the trust or make deposits in the reserve account.

Servicer

 

Ford Credit will be the “servicer” of the receivables and this securitization transaction.  The servicer is responsible for collecting payments on the receivables, administering payoffs, defaults and

 

delinquencies, and repossessing and liquidating financed vehicles.  The servicer will prepare monthly reports on the receivables, payments on the notes and the status of credit enhancement.  Ford Credit will also act as custodian and maintain custody of the receivable files.

 

The trust will pay the servicer a servicing fee on each payment date equal to 1/12 of 1% of the pool balance at the beginning of the prior month.

 

For more information about the servicer, you should read “Sponsor and Servicer.”

 

Priority of Payments

 

On each payment date, the indenture trustee will use available funds for the collection period to make payments in the order of priority listed below.  Available funds will consist primarily of collections on the receivables.  This priority will apply unless the notes are accelerated after an event of default under the indenture:

 

(1)              Transaction Fees and Expenses — to the indenture trustee, the owner trustee and the asset representations reviewer, the fees, expenses and indemnities due, and to or at the direction of the trust, any expenses of the trust, up to a maximum amount of $375,000 per year,

 

(2)              Servicing Fee — to the servicer, all unpaid servicing fees,

 

(3)              Class A Note Interest — to the Class A noteholders, interest due on the Class A notes, pro rata based on the principal amount of the Class A notes,

 

(4)              First Priority Principal Payment — to the Class A noteholders, sequentially by class, the amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the principal amount of the Class A notes, over (b) the adjusted pool balance,

 

(5)              Class B Note Interest — to the Class B noteholders, interest due on the Class B notes,

 

(6)              Second Priority Principal Payment — to the Class A and Class B noteholders, sequentially by class, the amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the principal amount of the Class A and Class B notes, over (b) the




 

11



adjusted pool balance, which amount will be reduced by any first priority principal payment on that payment date,

 

(7)              Class C Note Interest — to the Class C noteholders, interest due on the Class C notes,

 

(8)              Reserve Account — to the reserve account, the amount, if any, required to replenish the reserve account to its original balance, unless the payment date is on or after the final scheduled payment date for the Class C notes,

 

(9)              Regular Principal Payment — to the noteholders, sequentially by class, the amount equal to the greater of (a) the principal amount of the Class A-1 notes and (b) the excess of the principal amount of the notes over an amount equal to the pool balance minus the targeted overcollateralization amount, which amount will be reduced by any first and second priority principal payments on that payment date,

 

(10)       Additional Fees and Expenses — to the indenture trustee, the owner trustee, the asset representations reviewer and the trust, all fees, expenses and indemnities due to the extent not paid in item (1) above, and

 

(11)       Residual Interest — to the holder of the residual interest in the trust, all remaining available funds.

 

The trust will not pay principal of any class of notes until the principal amount of more senior classes of notes are paid in full.

 

For more details about available funds, you should read “Description of the Notes — Funds Available for Payments.”  For more details about the priority of payments on each payment date, you should read “Description of the Notes — Priority of Payments.”  For more details about targeted overcollateralization amount and how it is used to determine the principal payable on the notes, you should read “Credit Enhancement — Overcollateralization.”

 

Events of Default

 

Each of the following will be an “event of default” under the indenture:

 

·                  the trust fails to pay interest due on the notes of the controlling class within five days after a payment date,

 

·                  the trust fails to pay the principal amount of any class of notes in full by its final scheduled payment date,

 

·                  the trust fails to observe or perform a material covenant or agreement or breaches a representation in any material respect that is not corrected within a 60-day cure period, and

 

·                  a bankruptcy or dissolution of the trust.

 

If an event of default occurs, other than because of a bankruptcy or dissolution of the trust, the indenture trustee or a majority of the controlling class may accelerate the notes and declare them immediately due and payable.  If an event of default occurs because of a bankruptcy or dissolution of the trust, the notes will be accelerated automatically.

 

For more details about events of default, acceleration of the notes and other remedies available to noteholders after an event of default, you should read “Description of the Notes — Events of Default and Acceleration.”  For more details about the priority of payments on each payment date after an event of default and acceleration of the notes, you should read “Description of the Notes — Post-Acceleration Priority of Payments.

 

Controlling Class

 

Holders of the most senior class of notes outstanding, or the “controlling class,” will control the ability to make some decisions about the trust, including whether to declare or waive events of default and servicer termination events, or accelerate the notes, cause a sale of the receivables or direct the indenture trustee to exercise other remedies after an event of default.  Notes of the controlling class held by the trust, the depositor, the servicer or their affiliates are not considered outstanding for these purposes while other notes are also outstanding.  Holders of notes




 

12



that are not part of the controlling class will not have these rights.

 

Credit Enhancement

 

Credit enhancement provides protection for the notes against losses on the receivables and potential shortfalls in the funds available to the trust to make required payments.  If the credit enhancement is not sufficient to cover all amounts payable on the notes, notes having a later final scheduled payment date will bear a greater risk of loss than notes having an earlier final scheduled payment date.

 

The following credit enhancement will be available to the trust.

 

Reserve Account

 

On the closing date, if the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes to be issued is $1,052,770,000, the depositor will deposit $7,895,797.88 in the reserve account or, if the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes to be issued is $1,315,800,000, the depositor will deposit $9,868,548.85 in the reserve account, which, in each case, is 0.75% of the initial adjusted pool balance.

 

If available funds (excluding reserve account amounts) are insufficient to cover the senior fees and expenses of the trust, including interest payments and any priority principal payments on the notes, the indenture trustee will use amounts in the reserve account to cover the shortfall.  The indenture trustee also will use the amounts in the reserve account if needed to pay any class of notes in full on its final scheduled payment date or to pay the notes after an event of default and acceleration of the notes.

 

If amounts in the reserve account are used, they will be replenished from collections on the receivables on later payment dates after the trust makes all higher priority payments.

 

For more details about the reserve account, you should read “Credit Enhancement — Reserve Account.”  For more details about available funds, you should read “Description of the Notes — Funds Available for Payments.”

 

Subordination

 

The trust will pay interest to all classes of the Class A notes and then will pay interest sequentially to the remaining classes of notes in order of seniority.  The trust will not pay interest on a subordinate class of notes until all interest due on more senior classes of notes is paid in full.

 

The trust will pay principal sequentially to each class of notes in order of seniority (starting with the Class A-1 notes).  The trust will not pay the principal of any class of notes until the principal amount of more senior classes of notes are paid in full.

 

In addition, if a priority principal payment is required on a payment date, the trust will pay the priority principal payment to the most senior class of notes outstanding before the payment of interest on the affected subordinated notes on that payment date.

 

For more details about the priority of payments, including changes to the priority after an event of default and acceleration of the notes, you should read “Description of the Notes — Priority of Payments,” “Description of the Notes — Post-Acceleration Priority of Payments” and “Credit Enhancement — Subordination.”

 

Overcollateralization

 

Overcollateralization is the amount by which the pool balance exceeds the principal amount of the notes.  Overcollateralization means there will be additional receivables generating collections that will be available to offset losses on the receivables and supplement interest collections due to low-APR receivables in the pool.  The initial amount of overcollateralization for the notes, if the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes to be issued is $1,052,770,000, will be $90,872,680.10, or 7.95% of the initial pool balance, or, if the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes to be issued is $1,315,800,000, will be $113,778,316.37, or 7.96% of the initial pool balance.

 

Overcollateralization may also be expressed as a percentage of the “adjusted pool balance,” which is the pool balance less the yield supplement overcollateralization amount.  The adjusted pool balance as of the closing date will be approximately equal to the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes.  This means that, on an adjusted pool balance basis, the




 

13



overcollateralization for the notes will be approximately zero on the closing date.

 

This securitization transaction is structured to use all available funds remaining after payments of the senior fees and expenses of the trust, the interest on the notes, any required priority principal payments and any required deposits in the reserve account, including the portion of the remaining available funds that is excess spread, to pay principal of the Class A-1 notes until paid in full and, then, to pay principal of the remaining notes until the targeted overcollateralization amount is reached.  After reaching the targeted overcollateralization amount, the regular principal payment will be used to maintain the overcollateralization at the targeted level.  The targeted overcollateralization amount will adjust each month and generally will equal the sum of (a) the yield supplement overcollateralization amount for that month, plus (b) 2.00% of the initial adjusted pool balance, plus (c) the excess, if any, of 1.50% of the current pool balance over 0.75% of the initial adjusted pool balance (the amount required to be in the reserve account).  When the pool balance has decreased to the point where 1.50% of the current pool balance is equal to or less than 0.75% of the initial adjusted pool balance, the targeted overcollateralization amount for each payment date will be the yield supplement overcollateralization amount for that payment date plus 2.00% of the initial adjusted pool balance.

 

For more details about the targeted overcollateralization amount, you should read “Credit Enhancement — Overcollateralization.”

 

Yield Supplement Overcollateralization Amount

 

A substantial number of the receivables have an annual percentage rate, or “APR,” less than the highest interest rate paid on the notes.  To compensate for the low APRs on these receivables, the notes are structured with a type of overcollateralization known as yield supplement overcollateralization.  The “yield supplement overcollateralization amount” for each payment date approximates the present value of the amount by which future payments on receivables with APRs below a stated rate of 5.20% are less than future payments would be on those receivables if their APRs were equal to the stated rate.  The yield supplement overcollateralization amount is included in the targeted overcollateralization amount for each payment date, which has the effect of recharacterizing a

 

portion of the principal collections on the pool of receivables as interest to increase excess spread.

 

For more details about the calculation of the yield supplement overcollateralization amount and its effect on principal payments, you should read “Credit Enhancement — Overcollateralization.”

 

Excess Spread

 

For a payment date, excess spread is equal to the excess of (a) the sum of interest collections and principal collections equal to the decline in the yield supplement overcollateralization amount from the prior payment date (or the closing date for the first payment date), over (b) the sum of senior fees and expenses of the trust, interest on the notes and any required deposits in the reserve account.  Any excess spread will be applied on each payment date, as part of available funds, to pay principal of the Class A-1 notes until paid in full and then to pay principal of the most senior class of notes to the extent necessary to reach the targeted overcollateralization amount.  In general, excess spread provides a source of funds to offset losses on the receivables.

 

For more details about the use of excess spread as credit enhancement, you should read “Credit Enhancement — Excess Spread.”

 

Repurchases and Purchases of Receivables

 

Repurchase of Receivables for Breach of Representations

 

Ford Credit will make representations about the origination, characteristics, terms and status of each receivable.  If a representation is later determined to have been untrue when made, then the receivable was not eligible to be sold to the depositor or the trust.  If a breach of a representation has a material adverse effect on a receivable, Ford Credit must repurchase the receivable unless it corrects the breach before the date it is required to repurchase the receivable.

 

For more details about the representations made about the receivables and Ford Credit’s repurchase obligation if these representations are breached, you should read “Receivables — Representations About Receivables” and “Receivables — Obligation to Repurchase Receivables.”  For information about when the asset representations reviewer may review receivables for compliance with the




 

14



representations, you should read “Receivables — Asset Representations Review.”

 

Purchase of Receivables for Servicer Actions

 

If Ford Credit as servicer materially impairs a receivable, it must purchase the receivable unless it corrects the impairment.  In addition, Ford Credit as servicer must purchase a receivable from the trust if it makes specific kinds of modifications to the receivable, including if it:

 

·                  modifies the amount financed or the APR of the receivable,

 

·                  rewrites or reschedules the receivable to change the number of originally scheduled payment due dates or the payment amount, or

 

·                  grants payment extensions resulting in the final payment date of the receivable being later than the final scheduled payment date of the Class C notes.

 

For more details about the servicer’s obligation to purchase receivables, you should read “Servicing — Servicer Modifications and Obligation to Purchase Receivables.”

 

Ratings

 

The depositor expects that the offered notes will receive credit ratings from two nationally recognized statistical rating organizations, or “rating agencies.”

 

The ratings of the notes will reflect the likelihood of the timely payment of interest on, and the ultimate payment of principal of, the notes according to their terms.  Each rating agency rating the notes will monitor its ratings under its normal surveillance process.  Ford Credit has agreed to provide ongoing information about the notes and the receivables to each rating agency.  A rating agency may change or withdraw an assigned rating at any time.  A rating action taken by one rating agency may not necessarily be taken by another rating agency.  No transaction party will be responsible for monitoring any changes to the ratings on the notes.

 

Tax Status

 

If you purchase a note, you agree by your purchase that you will treat your note as debt for

 

U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes.

 

Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP will deliver its opinion that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

 

·                  the offered notes will be treated as debt to the extent they are treated as beneficially owned by a person other than the sponsor or its affiliates for such purposes, and

 

·                  the trust will not be classified as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation.

 

For more information about the application of tax laws, you should read “Tax Considerations.”

 

ERISA Considerations

 

The offered notes generally will be eligible for purchase by employee benefit plans.

 

For more information about the treatment of the notes under ERISA, you should read “ERISA Considerations.”

 

Credit Risk Retention

 

The risk retention regulations in Regulation RR of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 require the sponsor, either directly or through its majority-owned affiliates, to retain an economic interest of at least 5% in the credit risk of the receivables.  The sponsor will satisfy this credit risk retention requirement by the depositor retaining an “eligible horizontal residual interest” having a fair value equal to at least 5% of the sum of the fair value, as of the closing date, of the notes to be issued by the trust and the residual interest in the trust.

 

For more information about how the sponsor will satisfy the risk retention requirements, you should read “Credit Risk Retention.”

 

Investment Considerations

 

The trust is not registered or required to be registered as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and, in making this determination, is relying on the exemption in Rule 3a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, although other exclusions or exemptions may also be available to the trust.  The trust is structured




 

15



not to be a “covered fund” under the regulations adopted to implement Section 619 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, commonly known as the Volcker Rule.

 

The Class A-1 notes will be structured to be eligible for purchase by money market funds under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940.  A money market fund should consult its legal advisors regarding the eligibility of the Class A-1 notes under Rule 2a-7 and whether an investment in the Class A-1 notes satisfies the fund’s investment policies and objectives.

 

For more information about Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, you should read “Investment Considerations.”

RISK FACTORS

 

You should consider the following risk factors in deciding whether to purchase any notes.

 

Risks relating to the nature of the notes and the structure of the transaction

 

The assets of the trust are limited and are the only source of payment for your notes

 

The trust will not have assets or sources of funds other than the receivables and related property it owns.  Credit enhancement is limited.  Your notes will not be insured or guaranteed by Ford Credit or any of its affiliates or anyone else.  If these assets or sources of funds are insufficient to pay your notes in full, you will incur losses on your notes.

 

 

 

The timing of principal payments on your notes is uncertain

 

Faster than expected rates of prepayments on the receivables will cause the trust to pay principal of your notes earlier than expected and will shorten the maturity of your notes.  Prepayments on the receivables will occur if:

 

 

 

 

 

·                  obligors prepay their receivables,

 

 

 

 

 

·                  the servicer receives liquidation proceeds on defaulted receivables,

 

 

 

 

 

·                  the servicer receives proceeds from physical damage, credit life or other insurance policies covering the financed vehicles or the obligors,

 

 

 

 

 

·                  the depositor or Ford Credit repurchases ineligible receivables due to a breach of representations, or

 

 

 

 

 

·                  the servicer purchases modified or impaired receivables. 

 

 

 

 

 

A variety of economic, social and other factors will influence the rate of prepayments on the receivables, including individual obligor circumstances and the types of incentives offered under Ford-sponsored marketing programs.  For instance, certain obligors finance their vehicle purchase with Ford Credit to obtain a cash rebate, then pay off their accounts in the first few months of the contract term.  No prediction can be made about the actual prepayment rates that will occur for the receivables. 

 

19


Table of Contents

 

 

 

If principal of your notes is paid earlier than expected due to faster rates of prepayments on the receivables, and interest rates at that time are lower than interest rates at the time principal would have been paid had those prepayments occurred as expected, you may not be able to reinvest the principal at a rate of return that is equal to or greater than the rate of return on your notes.  Alternatively, if principal of your notes is paid later than expected due to slower rates of prepayments or payments on the receivables, and interest rates at that time are higher than interest rates at the time principal would have been paid had those prepayments or payments occurred as expected, you may lose reinvestment opportunities and, if your notes were purchased at a discount, your yield may be reduced.  You will bear all reinvestment risk resulting from principal payments on your notes occurring earlier or later than expected. 

 

 

 

 

 

In addition, your notes will be paid in full before maturity if the servicer exercises its clean up call when the pool balance is 10% or less of the initial pool balance.

 

 

 

 

 

For more information about the timing of repayment and other sources of prepayments, you should read “Maturity and Prepayment Considerations.”

 

 

 

The Class B and Class C notes will be subject to greater risk because of subordination

 

The Class B notes will bear greater risk than the Class A notes because no interest will be paid on the Class B notes on any payment date until all interest on the Class A notes is paid in full on that payment date, and no principal will be paid on the Class B notes until the principal amount of the Class A notes is paid in full.  The Class C notes will bear even greater risk because of similar subordination to more senior classes of notes.  Failure to pay interest on subordinated notes that are not part of the controlling class will not be an event of default.

 

 

 

Overcollateralization may not increase as expected

 

Overcollateralization is expected to increase to the targeted overcollateralization amount as excess spread is used to pay principal of the notes in an amount greater than the decrease in the adjusted pool balance.  It is not certain that the targeted overcollateralization amount will be reached or maintained, or that the receivables will generate sufficient collections to pay your notes in full.

 

 

 

 

 

For more information about overcollateralization as a form of credit enhancement for your notes, you should read “Credit Enhancement — Overcollateralization.”

Table of Contents

 

An event of default and acceleration of the notes may result in earlier than expected payment of your notes or losses on your notes

 

An event of default may result in an acceleration of payments on your notes.  If principal of your notes is paid earlier than expected, you may not be able to reinvest the principal at a rate of return that is equal to or greater than the rate of return on your notes.  If the notes are accelerated after an event of default, the trust will not pay interest on or principal of any notes that are not part of the controlling class until all interest on and principal of the notes of the controlling class are paid in full.  If collections on the receivables and the proceeds of any sale of receivables are insufficient to pay the amounts owed on your notes, you may have delayed payments or losses on your notes.

 

 

 

 

 

For more details about events of default and acceleration of the notes, you should read “Description of the Notes — Events of Default and Acceleration.”  For more details about the change in the priority of payments after events of default and acceleration of the notes, you should read “Description of the Notes — Priority of Payments” and “Description of the Notes — Post-Acceleration Priority of Payments.”

 

 

 

Failure to pay principal of a note will not be an event of default until its final scheduled payment date

 

The trust will not be obligated to pay a specific amount of principal of any note on any date other than its outstanding principal amount on its final scheduled payment date.  Failure to pay principal of a note will not be an event of default until its final scheduled payment date.

 

 

 

The absence of a secondary market for your notes, financial market disruptions and a lack of liquidity in the secondary market may adversely affect the market value of your notes and/or limit your ability to resell your notes

 

If a secondary market for your notes does not develop or becomes disrupted, it could limit your ability to resell them.  This means that if you want to sell your notes before they mature, you may be unable to find a buyer or, if you find a buyer, the selling price may be less than it would have been if a secondary market existed.  The underwriters may assist in the resale of notes, but they are not required to do so.  If a secondary market does develop, it might not continue, it might be disrupted by events in the global financial markets or it might not be sufficiently liquid to allow you to resell your notes.

 

 

 

 

 

For more information about the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on general economic conditions, you should read “Economic volatility and global financial market disruptions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic could result in losses on your notes and/or limit your ability to resell your notes” below.

 

 

 

You may suffer losses because you have limited control over actions of the trust and conflicts between classes of notes may occur

 

The controlling class may provide notice of a default relating to a breach of a material covenant, may accelerate the notes after an event of default and may waive certain events of default.  The controlling class may, in some circumstances, direct the indenture trustee to sell the receivables after an acceleration of the notes even if the proceeds would not be sufficient to pay all of the notes in full and would cause some classes of notes to suffer a loss.  The controlling class may terminate the servicer after a servicer termination event and may waive servicer termination events.

Holders of notes that are not part of the controlling class will have no right to take these actions.  Only the controlling class will have these rights.  The controlling class may have different interests from the noteholders of other classes and will not be required to consider the effect of its actions on the noteholders of other classes. 

 

 

 

 

 

For more details about the actions that the controlling class may direct, you should read “Description of the Notes — Events of Default and Acceleration” and “Servicing — Resignation and Termination of Servicer.”

 

 

 

A reduction, withdrawal or qualification of the ratings on your notes, or the issuance of unsolicited ratings on your notes, may adversely affect the market value of your notes and/or limit your ability to resell your notes

 

The ratings on the notes are not recommendations to purchase, hold or sell the notes and do not address market value or investor suitability.  The ratings reflect each rating agency’s assessment of the future performance of the receivables, the credit enhancement available for the notes and the likelihood of repayment of the notes.  The notes may not perform as expected and the ratings may be reduced, withdrawn or qualified in the future as a result of a change of circumstances, deterioration in the performance of the receivables, analytical errors or incorrect assumptions.  None of the depositor, the sponsor or any of their affiliates will be obligated to replace or supplement any credit enhancement or to take other action to maintain any ratings on the notes.  If the ratings on your notes are reduced, withdrawn or qualified, it may adversely affect the market value of your notes and/or limit your ability to resell your notes.

 

22


Table of Contents

 

 

 

The sponsor hired two rating agencies that are nationally recognized statistical rating organizations, or “NRSROs,” and will pay them a fee to assign ratings on the offered notes.  The sponsor has not hired any other NRSRO to assign ratings on the notes and is not aware that any other NRSRO assigned ratings on the notes.  However, under SEC rules, information provided to a hired rating agency for the purpose of assigning or monitoring the ratings on the notes is required to be made available to each NRSRO to make it possible for non-hired NRSROs to assign unsolicited ratings on the notes.  An unsolicited rating could be assigned at any time, including before the closing date, and none of the sponsor, the depositor, the underwriters or any of their affiliates will be obligated to inform you of any unsolicited ratings assigned after the date of this prospectus.  NRSROs, including the hired rating agencies, have different methodologies, criteria, models and requirements.  If a non-hired NRSRO assigns an unsolicited rating on the notes, it may be lower than the ratings provided by the hired rating agencies, which may adversely affect the market value of your notes and/or limit your ability to resell your notes.  In addition, if the sponsor fails to make available to the non-hired NRSROs any information provided to any hired rating agency for the purpose of assigning or monitoring the ratings on the notes, a hired rating agency could withdraw its ratings on the notes, which may adversely affect the market value of your notes and/or limit your ability to resell your notes.

 

 

 

 

 

You should make your own evaluation of the future performance of the receivables, the credit enhancement available for the notes and the likelihood of repayment of the notes.  You should not rely solely on the ratings on the notes.

 

 

 

The initial principal amount of the notes is unknown

 

Whether the trust will issue notes with an aggregate initial principal amount of $1,052,770,000 or $1,315,800,000 will be determined on or before the day of pricing.  The sponsor will make the determination regarding the aggregate initial principal amount of each class of notes based on, among other considerations, market conditions at the time of pricing.  The size of a class of notes may affect the liquidity of that class, with smaller classes being less liquid than larger classes.  In addition, if your class of notes is larger than you expected, then you may hold a smaller percentage of that class of notes and the voting power of your notes will be diluted.

 

23


Table of Contents

 

Retention of notes by the depositor may adversely affect the market value of your notes and/or limit your ability to resell your notes

 

The depositor may retain some or all of one or more classes of notes.  As a result, the market for notes of that class may be less liquid than would otherwise be the case and, if the retained notes are later sold in the secondary market, it could reduce demand for notes of that class already in the market, which may adversely affect the market value of your notes and/or limit your ability to resell your notes.

 

 

 

Risks relating to the trust assets

 

 

 

 

 

Performance of the receivables is uncertain and depends on many factors and may worsen in an economic downturn

 

The performance of the receivables depends on a number of factors, including general economic conditions, unemployment levels, the circumstances of individual obligors, the terms of the receivables, Ford Credit’s underwriting standards at origination, Ford Credit’s servicing and collection strategies, the resale value of repossessed vehicles and changes in Ford’s marketing programs, all of which could result in higher delinquencies and losses on the receivables.  Because many of these factors are outside the control of Ford Credit, the performance of the receivables cannot be predicted with accuracy and may worsen in an economic downturn, which could result in losses on your notes. 

 

 

 

 

 

For more information about factors which could affect the performance of the receivables and the value of the financed vehicles, you should read “— Declines in the resale value of the financed vehicles may adversely affect the performance of the receivables and your notes,” “— Vehicle recalls may adversely affect the performance of the receivables and your notes” and “— High vehicle model or vehicle type concentrations may adversely affect the performance of the receivables and your notes” below.

 

 

 

 

 

For more information about delinquencies, repossessions and credit losses for Ford Credit’s portfolio of U.S. retail installment sale contracts, you should read “Sponsor and Servicer — Delinquency, Repossession and Credit Loss Information.”

 

 

 

Receivables with longer terms may experience higher loss severity and may adversely impact the performance of the receivables and your notes

 

The original term of retail installment sale contracts have generally gotten longer over time in response to market demand.  Some of the receivables in the pool of receivables will have original terms longer than 72 months, including original terms of up to 84 months.  Historically, those receivables with longer original terms have generally had obligors with higher creditworthiness and experienced less frequent occurrences of delinquencies and defaults, although, over the longer term of such receivables there may be a higher probability of exogenous events affecting the receivable’s performance.

 

24


Table of Contents

 

 

 

The rate of depreciation of a financed vehicle is not related to the length of the related retail installment sale contract.  However, the rate at which the amount financed for a financed vehicle is reduced by timely obligor payments pursuant to a longer-term contract is inherently slower than for a shorter-term contract, which may increase the length of time that the amount financed exceeds the financed vehicle’s value.  As a result, receivables with longer original terms have exhibited higher loss severity at repossession or charge off due to the slower rate of amortization over the receivable’s longer term, a higher original amount financed and a higher loan-to-value ratio.  More frequent delinquencies or defaults or higher loss severities on longer-term receivables could result in increased losses on the receivables and losses on your notes.

 

 

 

Declines in the resale value of the financed vehicles may adversely affect the performance of the receivables and your notes

 

Vehicles that are repossessed are typically sold at auctions as used vehicles.  The pricing of used vehicles is affected by supply and demand for those vehicles, which is influenced by many factors, including overall auto industry sales, the volume of returned lease vehicles, consumer tastes, economic conditions, fuel costs, the introduction and pricing of new vehicle models, a change in (or a change in consumer perception of) the quality, safety, reliability or performance of Ford vehicles, government or regulatory investigations or other actions relating to safety, emissions or fuel efficiency, the impact of vehicle recalls and the discontinuation of vehicle models or brands.  Strong auto industry sales and higher volumes of returned lease vehicles generally increase the supply of used vehicles in the market, which may adversely affect auction prices for used vehicles.  In addition, decisions by Ford about new vehicle production, pricing and incentives may affect used vehicle prices, particularly those for the same or similar models.  Any adverse impact on the resale value for repossessed vehicles could result in increased losses on the receivables and losses on your notes.

 

 

 

 

 

These impacts may be more pronounced if they relate to vehicle models or vehicle types that represent a high percentage of the financed vehicles in the pool of receivables. 

 

 

 

 

 

For more information about the distribution by vehicle model and vehicle type of the receivables, you should read “— High vehicle model or vehicle type concentrations may adversely affect the performance of the receivables and your notes” below and “Receivables — Composition of Receivables — Distribution by Make, Model and Vehicle Type of Receivables.”

Table of Contents

 

Vehicle recalls may adversely affect the performance of the receivables and your notes

 

Vehicle recalls that apply to the financed vehicles, including recalls resulting from government or regulatory investigations or other actions, may adversely affect delinquencies, repossessions and credit losses on the related receivables.  An increase in the number of repossessed vehicles that are subject to a vehicle recall may reduce the price at which those vehicles are sold at auction or delay the timing of disposition.  An increase in delinquencies, repossessions and credit losses on the receivables and/or a decrease in the proceeds from the sale of repossessed vehicles may result in accelerated, delayed or reduced payments on your notes.

 

 

 

 

 

For more information about delinquencies, repossessions and credit losses for Ford Credit’s portfolio of U.S. retail installment sale contracts, you should read “Sponsor and Servicer — Delinquency, Repossession and Credit Loss Information.”

 

 

 

 

 

These impacts may be more pronounced if a vehicle recall applies to vehicle models or vehicle types that represent a high percentage of the financed vehicles in the pool of receivables.

High vehicle model or vehicle type concentrations may adversely affect the performance of the receivables and your notes

 

If a specific vehicle model or vehicle type of the financed vehicles represents a significant percentage of the pool balance, any adverse change in the value of that specific vehicle model or vehicle type of the financed vehicles may adversely impact the performance of the related receivables and could result in delayed payments or losses on your notes.

 

 

 

 

 

As of the cutoff date, if the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes to be issued is $1,052,770,000, the vehicle models and vehicle types of the financed vehicles related to the receivables in the pool of receivables are concentrated by initial pool balance as follows:

Excessive prepayments and defaults on the higher APR receivables may adversely impact your notes

 

Some of the receivables will have APRs that are less than the interest rate on your notes plus fees and expenses of the trust.  Payments on receivables with higher APRs compensate for the payments made on receivables with lower APRs.  In addition, obligors with lower creditworthiness are likely to have receivables with higher APRs and those obligors with lower creditworthiness may be disproportionately more likely to default on payments during an economic downturn.  Excessive prepayments and defaults on the higher APR receivables may adversely impact your notes by reducing the amounts available to pay principal of and interest on your notes.

 

 

 

Interests of other persons in the receivables or the related financed vehicles could reduce funds available to pay your notes

 

If another person acquires an interest in a receivable or a related financed vehicle that is superior to the trust’s interest, the collections on that receivable or the proceeds from the sale of that financed vehicle may not be available to make payments on your notes.  If the trust does not have a perfected security interest in a receivable or a financed vehicle, its ability to repossess and sell the financed vehicle securing a defaulted receivable may be adversely affected.  Another person could acquire an interest in a receivable or a financed vehicle that is superior to the trust’s interest if:

 

 

 

 

 

·                  the trust does not have a perfected security interest in the receivable or the financed vehicle because Ford Credit’s security interest in the receivable or in the financed vehicle was not properly perfected,

 

27


Table of Contents

 

 

 

·                  the trust does not have a perfected security interest in the financed vehicle in some states because the servicer will not amend the certificate of title to identify the trust as the new secured party,

 

 

 

 

 

·                  the trust’s security interest in the receivable or the financed vehicle is impaired because holders of some types of liens, such as tax liens or mechanic’s liens, may have priority over the trust’s security interest or a financed vehicle is confiscated by a government agency, or

 

 

 

 

 

·                  the trust does not have a perfected security interest in the receivable because Ford Credit did not maintain physical possession, in the case of a tangible contract, or “control,” in the case of an electronic contract.

Geographic concentration may result in more risk to you

 

As of the cutoff date, if the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes to be issued is $1,052,770,000, the billing addresses of the obligors of the receivables are concentrated by initial pool balance in the following states:

Table of Contents

 

 

 

Recently, the price of crude oil and the value of companies in the oil and gas industry have declined significantly and demonstrated heightened volatility.  The decline in oil prices and resulting impact on the oil and gas industry and related financial market volatility may disproportionately impact certain regions, including Texas, and/or certain vehicle models prevalent in those regions, including light trucks, and could adversely affect obligors in those regions, particularly those who use the financed vehicle for commercial purposes.  These impacts could lead to an increase in delinquencies, repossessions and credit losses on receivables in those regions, which could lead to delayed payments or losses on your notes.

 

 

 

 

 

The COVID-19 pandemic and resulting economic volatility have had a disproportionately adverse impact on certain regions of the country.  In particular, the duration and extent of stay-at-home orders, travel restrictions, quarantines and restrictions on business operations in certain regions have been more severe.  For example, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the unemployment rates in Texas, California and Florida were 8.3%, 11.0%, and 7.6%, respectively, in September 2020.

 

 

 

 

 

In addition, the governments or regulatory agencies of certain regions have sought, and could continue to seek, to limit the ability of the servicer to make collections on the receivables or repossess the underlying vehicles located in that region following a default by the obligor.  The stay-at-home orders enacted across the United States to combat the spread of COVID-19 disrupted dealer and auction activity in many locations and could impair the servicer’s ability to liquidate the financed vehicles again in the future.  If any of these events occur in a region with a high concentration of receivables, the adverse impact on the performance of the receivables will be increased and could result in delayed payments or losses on your notes.

 

 

 

Risks relating to macroeconomic, regulatory and other external factors

 

Economic volatility and global financial market disruptions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic could result in losses on your notes and/or limit your ability to resell your notes

 

The COVID-19 pandemic created a global public-health crisis that resulted in widespread deterioration in household, business and economic conditions and significant dislocations and volatility in global financial market conditions.  To combat the spread of COVID-19 and protect public health, numerous governmental and nongovernmental measures were adopted, including:

 

 

 

 

 

·                  widespread social distancing requirements, stay-at-home orders, travel restrictions, quarantines and remote work arrangements,

 

29


Table of Contents

 

 

 

·                  restrictions on business operations and/or shutdowns of various businesses and industries deemed non-essential, including, in some states, auto dealerships and auto auctions, and

 

 

 

 

 

·                  invocation of the Defense Production Act by the President of the United States compelling certain manufacturers, including auto manufacturers, to prioritize the production of various healthcare products.

 

 

 

 

 

The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken to combat its spread caused severe disruptions and significant uncertainty in the economy and global financial markets, including:

 

 

 

 

 

·                  unprecedented increases in unemployment,

 

 

 

 

 

·                  decreases in consumer spending and reduced demand for certain products, including abrupt declines in new and used vehicle sales and volatility in used vehicle values,

 

 

 

 

 

·                  disruptions in global supply chains and shutdowns of manufacturing capacity in certain industries, including those of auto manufacturers, and

 

 

 

 

 

·                  significant disruptions in financial markets and decreases in liquidity of certain secondary markets.

 

 

 

 

 

In response to these disruptions and the uncertainty in the economy and global financial markets, federal, state and local governments and regulatory agencies implemented and/or proposed numerous actions, including:

 

 

 

 

 

·                  laws, regulations, executive orders and other guidance relating to the collection of financial obligations such as the receivables, including allowing obligors to forgo making scheduled payments, requiring certain modifications, waiving certain fees and precluding creditors from exercising certain rights such as repossessions and liquidations of financed vehicles, and

 

 

 

 

 

·                  significant fiscal and monetary policies intended to provide relief for those affected by the economic downturn and promote liquidity for affected segments of the financial markets.

We have never previously experienced a situation such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the response of governmental and nongovernmental authorities to combat its spread and protect public health, which caused severe disruptions and significant uncertainty in the economy and global financial markets.  To the extent cases of COVID-19 increase, stringent limitations on daily activities that may have been eased previously could be reinstated.  We cannot predict whether the COVID-19 pandemic will worsen or the effect it will have on the economy and the performance of the receivables and/or the market value of your notes.  If the COVID-19 pandemic worsens and/or causes increased volatility in or disruption of the global financial markets, it could result in losses on your notes and/or affect your ability to resell your notes.  Specifically, economic and public health disruption related to the COVID-19 pandemic could lead to:

 

 

 

 

 

·                  Ford Credit choosing to grant an increased number of goodwill extensions to obligors on the receivables, which in turn could cause or exacerbate slower than expected obligor repayments on the receivables, a shortfall in reaching or maintaining the target overcollateralization amount, slower than expected payments by the trust on your notes, or losses of principal on your notes,

 

 

 

 

 

·                  depressed economic activity and increased unemployment, leading to increased delinquency and credit losses for obligors, particularly for receivables for which the obligor is a small business entity or individual that uses the financed vehicle for commercial purposes,

 

 

 

 

 

·                  adverse effects on the liquidation value for repossessed vehicles or restrictions on the ability of the servicer to repossess and liquidate vehicles, and

 

 

 

 

 

·                  the enactment or enforcement of federal, state and local laws, regulations, executive orders and other actions that may preclude creditors from exercising certain rights, such as repossessions and liquidations of financed vehicles, in which case the servicer would not be able to obtain any value for financed vehicles relating to defaulted contracts until such time as any such prohibition is removed.

The risks of the COVID-19 pandemic described above may exacerbate other risks disclosed in this section.  For more information about the risks that are susceptible to the COVID-19 pandemic, you should read “— The timing of principal payments on your notes is uncertain,” “— Overcollateralization may not increase as expected,” “— The absence of a secondary market for your notes, financial market disruptions and a lack of liquidity in the secondary market may adversely affect the market value of your notes and/or limit your ability to resell your notes,” “— Performance of the receivables is uncertain and depends on many factors and may worsen in an economic downturn,” “— Declines in the resale value of the financed vehicles may adversely affect the performance of the receivables and your notes,” “— Geographic concentration may result in more risk to you,” “— Federal financial regulatory reform could have an adverse impact on Ford Credit, the depositor or the trust” and “— A decline in the financial condition or business prospects of Ford, Ford Credit or other interdependent market participants could result in losses on your notes.”

 

 

 

Federal financial regulatory reform could have an adverse impact on Ford Credit, the depositor or the trust

 

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or the “Dodd-Frank Act,” is extensive legislation that impacts financial institutions and other nonbank financial companies, such as Ford Credit.  The Dodd-Frank Act created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, an agency responsible for administering and enforcing the laws and regulations for consumer financial products and services.  The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has authority to supervise and examine the largest nonbank automotive finance companies, including Ford Credit, for compliance with consumer financial protection laws. 

 

 

 

 

 

For more information about potentially applicable provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act, you should read “Important Legal Considerations — The Dodd-Frank Act.”

 

 

 

 

 

The Dodd-Frank Act created an alternative liquidation framework under which the FDIC may be appointed as receiver for the resolution of a nonbank financial company if the company is in default or in danger of default and the resolution of the company under law would have serious adverse effects on financial stability in the United States.  It is not clear whether the liquidation framework would apply to Ford Credit, the depositor or the trust.  The expectation is that the framework will be invoked only very rarely.  Guidance from the FDIC indicates that the framework will be exercised in a manner consistent with the existing bankruptcy laws, which is the insolvency regime that would apply to Ford Credit, the depositor and the trust absent the application of the alternative liquidation framework involving the FDIC.  If the FDIC were appointed as receiver for Ford Credit, the depositor or the trust, or if future regulations or FDIC actions are contrary to the FDIC guidance, you may have delayed payments or losses on your notes.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, or the “CARES Act,” is extensive federal legislation adopted to address the COVID-19 pandemic.  Future legislation similar to the CARES Act may be proposed and enacted.  The CARES Act provided financial assistance to certain workers through economic impact payments and enhanced unemployment insurance benefits.  That financial assistance has concluded and the future availability of similar support is uncertain.  Without additional governmental financial assistance for the obligors of the receivables, delinquencies and losses on the receivables could increase, which could result in losses on your notes.  Certain of the CARES Act’s implementing regulations have not yet been issued.  The potential impact of the CARES Act, or future similar federal, state or local legislation or regulation on financial institutions and other nonbank financial companies, such as Ford Credit, or consumers, such as the obligors of the receivables, is unknown.

 

 

 

Eligibility of the Class A-1 notes under Rule 2a-7

 

The Class A-1 notes will be structured to be eligible for purchase by money market funds under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940.  However, Rule 2a-7 includes additional criteria for investments by money market funds, including requirements relating to portfolio maturity, quality and diversification.  Any determinations about the qualification of the Class A-1 notes under, and compliance with, other applicable requirements of Rule 2a-7 are solely the responsibility of each money market fund and its investment advisor.

Risks relating to the transaction parties

 

A decline in the financial condition or business prospects of Ford, Ford Credit or other interdependent market participants could result in losses on your notes

 

Manufacturers and suppliers in the U.S. auto industry are interdependent, and adverse events affecting any domestic auto manufacturer or a major supplier could have an adverse effect on the other participants in the U.S. auto industry, including Ford and Ford Credit.  In recent years, for example, economic volatility associated with the 2007-2009 global financial crisis and with the current COVID-19 pandemic have had adverse effects on the financial condition and business prospects of manufacturers, suppliers and other interdependent market participants in the U.S. auto industry, including Ford and Ford Credit.  In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many auto manufacturers, including Ford, temporarily shut down North American auto production.  In addition, in many states automotive dealers were required to temporarily close or restrict their operations, and even for dealerships that remained open or have since re-opened, consumer demand declined quickly. 

 

 

 

 

 

We cannot predict whether the COVID-19 pandemic will worsen or whether and when other periods of large magnitude volatility will occur.  If the COVID-19 pandemic worsens, or global economic volatility resumes, the financial condition and business prospects of Ford and Ford Credit or of other manufacturers and suppliers in the U.S. auto industry, could be further adversely affected, which could have industry- or economy-wide effects due to the interdependence of market actors. 

 

 

 

 

 

The occurrence of any of these events could adversely affect the performance of the receivables, the market value of the vehicles securing the receivables, the credit rating of Ford or Ford Credit or the ability of Ford Credit, as sponsor, to honor its commitment to repurchase receivables due to breaches of representations or warranties, and, as servicer, to service the receivables or purchase receivables due to certain servicer modifications, which could result in losses on your notes.

 

 

 

 

 

For more information about the effects that economic disruptions may have on the performance of the receivables, you should read “— Performance of the receivables is uncertain and depends on many factors and may worsen in an economic downturn” above.

 

 

 

Bankruptcy of Ford Credit may result in delayed payments or losses on your notes

 

If Ford Credit becomes subject to a bankruptcy proceeding, you may have delayed payments or losses on your notes.  A bankruptcy court could conclude that Ford Credit effectively still owns the receivables because the transfer of the receivables to the depositor was viewed as a financing and not a “true sale” or that the assets and liabilities of the depositor should be consolidated with those of Ford Credit for bankruptcy purposes.  If a court were to reach either conclusion, you may have delayed payments or losses on your notes due to:

 

34


Table of Contents

 

 

 

·                  the “automatic stay” of the U.S. federal bankruptcy laws that prevents secured creditors from exercising remedies against a debtor in bankruptcy without permission from the bankruptcy court and other U.S. federal bankruptcy laws that permit substitution of collateral in limited circumstances,

 

 

 

 

 

·                  tax or government liens on Ford Credit’s property that were existing before the transfer of the receivables to the trust having a claim on collections that are senior to your notes, or

 

 

 

 

 

·                  the trust not having a perfected security interest in the financed vehicles or any cash collections held by Ford Credit at the time the bankruptcy proceeding starts. 

 

 

 

 

 

If a court were to decide that the transfer was not a “true sale” or that the depositor should be consolidated with Ford Credit for bankruptcy purposes, the trust would benefit from a security interest in the receivables but the receivables would be owned by Ford Credit and payments may be delayed, collateral substituted or other remedies may be imposed by the bankruptcy court that may cause delayed payments or losses on your notes. 

 

 

 

 

 

Any bankruptcy proceeding involving Ford Credit may also adversely affect the rights and remedies of the trust and payments on your notes in other ways, whether or not the transfer of the receivables is considered a “true sale” or the depositor is consolidated with Ford Credit for bankruptcy purposes.  For example:

 

 

 

 

 

·                  as noted above, the “automatic stay” may prevent the exercise by the trust and others of their rights and remedies against Ford Credit and others, including the right to replace Ford Credit as servicer or the right to require it to repurchase receivables based on a breach of a representation, and/or

 

 

 

 

 

·                  Ford Credit may be permitted to reject some agreements to which it is a party, including the sale and servicing agreement, and not be required to perform its obligations under those agreements.

The servicer’s ability to commingle collections with its own funds may result in delayed payments or losses on your notes

 

The servicer will be required to deposit collections on the receivables in the trust’s collection account within two business days of applying them to the obligor’s account or on a monthly basis, depending on its credit ratings, other than recoveries, which will be deposited on a monthly basis.  Until it deposits collections, the servicer may use them at its own risk and for its own benefit and may commingle collections on the receivables with its own funds.  If the servicer does not pay these amounts to the trust by the next payment date, which could occur if the servicer becomes subject to a bankruptcy proceeding, it may result in delayed payments or losses on your notes.

Delays in collecting payments could occur if Ford Credit is not the servicer

 

If Ford Credit resigns or is terminated as servicer, the processing of payments on the receivables and information about collections could be disrupted or delayed.  This may result in delayed payments on your notes.  Ford Credit may be removed as servicer if it defaults on its servicing obligations or becomes subject to bankruptcy proceedings as described in “Servicing — Resignation and Termination of Servicer.”

 

 

 

The servicing fee may be insufficient to attract a replacement servicer

 

If Ford Credit resigns or is terminated as servicer, the servicing fee, which is calculated as a fixed percentage of the pool balance, may be insufficient to attract a replacement servicer or cover the actual cost of servicing the receivables.  In particular, the amount of the servicing fee will decline each month as the pool balance declines, but the cost of servicing each account will remain essentially fixed.  This risk is greatest toward the end of a securitization transaction when the pool balance has declined significantly.  A delay or inability to find a replacement servicer would disrupt or delay collection and other servicing activities on the receivables and could disrupt or delay reports to the noteholders and the indenture trustee and result in delayed payments or losses on your notes.

Failure by Ford Credit or the depositor to repurchase receivables when required may result in delayed payments or losses on your notes

 

Ford Credit and the depositor make representations regarding the receivables, including that they comply with U.S. federal and state consumer financial protection laws.  If any of these representations are not true, it could adversely affect the collectability of the related receivables.  For instance, if a receivable does not comply with U.S. federal and state consumer financial protection laws, the servicer may be prevented from or delayed in collecting the receivable.  Also, some of these laws may provide that the assignee of a consumer contract (such as the trust) is liable to the obligor for any failure of the contract to comply with these laws.  Ford Credit and/or the depositor must repurchase receivables that breach any of these representations if such breach has a material adverse effect on the receivable.  Similarly, Ford Credit, as servicer, is required to purchase from the trust receivables for which certain modifications have been made.  If Ford Credit or the depositor fails to repurchase, or the servicer fails to purchase, the related receivables, you may experience delayed payments or losses on your notes.

SPONSOR AND SERVICER

 

General

 

Ford Credit was established in 1959 to provide financing for Ford vehicles and support Ford dealers.  Ford Credit is a Delaware limited liability company and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ford.

 

Ford Credit provides a wide variety of automotive financing products to and through automotive dealers throughout the world.  The predominant share of Ford Credit’s business consists of financing Ford and Lincoln vehicles and supporting the dealers of those brands.  Ford Credit’s primary financing products are:

 

·                  Retail financing — purchasing retail installment sale contracts and leases from dealers, and offering financing to commercial customers, primarily vehicle leasing companies and fleet purchasers, to lease or purchase vehicle fleets,

 

·                  Wholesale financing — making loans to dealers to finance the purchase of vehicle inventory, also known as floorplan financing, and

 

·                  Other financing — making loans to dealers for working capital, improvements to dealership facilities, and to purchase or finance dealership real estate.

 

Ford Credit also services the finance receivables and leases it originates and purchases, makes loans to Ford affiliates and provides insurance services related to its financing programs.

 

Ford Credit earns its revenue primarily from:

 

·                  payments on retail installment sale contracts and leases that it purchases,

 

·                  interest rate supplements and other support payments from Ford and affiliated companies, and

 

·                  payments on wholesale and other dealer financing programs.

 

Ford Credit will be the sponsor of the securitization transaction in which the notes will be issued.  Ford Credit will be the servicer of the receivables and the securitization transaction and the administrator for the trust.

 

As sponsor, Ford Credit will be responsible for structuring this securitization transaction, selecting the transaction parties and paying the expenses of forming the trust, legal fees of some transaction parties, rating agency fees for rating the notes and other transaction expenses.  Ford Credit will also select the pool of receivables for this securitization transaction using the criteria described in Receivables — Selection of Receivables.  Ford Credit will make representations about the characteristics of the receivables sold to the depositor and sold by the depositor to the trust.  If Ford Credit has knowledge or is notified by the trust, the owner trustee or the indenture trustee that a representation was untrue when made and the breach has a material adverse effect on a receivable, Ford Credit must repurchase the receivable unless it corrects the breach in all material respects before the date it is required to repurchase the receivable.

 

For more information about the representations and repurchase obligations, you should read “Receivables — Representations About Receivables” and “Receivables — Obligation to Repurchase Receivables.”

Securitization Experience

 

Ford Credit has securitized its assets since 1988.

 

Ford Credit’s securitization programs are diversified across asset classes and markets.  Ford Credit sponsors securitization programs for retail installment sale contracts, leases and leased vehicles and dealer floorplan receivables.  Ford Credit participates in a number of international securitization markets, including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, Mexico and China.  Ford Credit also participated in the securitization markets in Japan and Australia and other European countries.

 

In the United States, Ford Credit sponsors a number of securitization and structured financing programs in which it sells receivables to trusts making registered public offerings or broadly-distributed Rule 144A offerings of asset-backed securities.  In addition, Ford Credit regularly sells interests in, and asset-backed securities backed by, pools of receivables to a large number of bank-sponsored asset-backed commercial paper conduits and other banks and financial institutions.

 

Ford Credit securitizes its assets because the market for securitization of financial assets usually provides the company with a lower cost source of funding than other alternatives, diversifies funding among different markets and investors and provides additional liquidity.  Ford Credit meets a significant portion of its funding requirements through securitizations for these reasons.  Securitization is a core component of Ford Credit’s funding strategy.

Securitization Program for Retail Installment Sale Contracts

 

Ford Credit has had an active publicly-registered securitization program for retail installment sale contracts in the United States since 1989 and has issued asset-backed securities in more than 80 transactions under this program.  The notes offered by this prospectus are part of this program.  Ford Credit has also had a broadly-distributed Rule 144A securitization program for revolving pools of retail installment sale contracts in the United States since 2014 and has issued asset-backed securities in more than ten transactions under this program.  Ford Credit has never received a demand to repurchase any receivable backing asset-backed securities offered in either program due to a breach of representations made about the receivables.  Repurchases of receivables due to Ford Credit’s discovery of a breach of representations have been immaterial in these programs.  None of the asset-backed securities offered in either program have experienced any losses or events of default and Ford Credit has never taken any action out of the ordinary in any transaction to prevent losses or events of default.

 

Origination, Underwriting and Purchasing

 

Vehicle Financing.  Ford Credit purchases completed retail installment sale contracts entered into between retail customers and motor vehicle dealers for the sale and financing of vehicles.  When a customer purchases a vehicle from a dealer, the customer and the dealer agree on the purchase price of the vehicle and the purchase of any insurance, service contracts and other products offered by the dealer.  If the customer elects to finance the vehicle through the dealer, the customer and the dealer decide on the amount to be financed, contract term, payment terms and finance charge rate, or APR, on the retail installment sale contract.  The amount financed is the purchase price of the vehicle less any vehicle trade-in, customer down payment and cash payments from Ford-sponsored marketing programs plus taxes, additional products such as insurance and service contracts, dealer installed or other accessories, vehicle charging stations, outstanding balances on turn-in or trade-in vehicles and other fees and charges the dealer agrees to pay on behalf of the customer.  Ford Credit will generally only purchase contracts from dealers if it approved the additional products financed on the contract and the providers of those products.  The customer also chooses the day of the month on which monthly payments will be due and the first payment date, which generally must be within 45 days of the date the contract is signed.  The dealer will determine if the customer is eligible for and will be using any Ford-sponsored marketing programs that impact the terms of the contract, such as low-APR vehicle marketing incentive programs or marketing programs that allow the customer to defer payments for a limited time before starting to make monthly payments.

 

Contracts originated under Ford-sponsored low-APR vehicle marketing incentive programs, or “subvened-APR contracts,” have finance charge rates below the standard financing rates that Ford Credit offers.  Ford pays Ford Credit the present value of the difference between the customer’s subvened rate and Ford Credit’s standard financing rate.  Ford and Ford Credit may also offer other forms of vehicle marketing or financing incentives to customers, such as cash rebates, but contracts receiving these incentives are not considered subvened-APR contracts.  Cash rebates may be applied toward the purchase price of the financed vehicle.

 

Ford Credit typically purchases retail installment sale contracts with terms of 60, 72, 75, and 84 months, but will also purchase contracts with other terms.  A contract originated under Ford-sponsored marketing programs that allow the customer to defer the initial monthly payments will have a term that is longer than would otherwise be the case because the deferral period occurs at the beginning of the contract, after which normal monthly payments commence.  Contracts originated under those Ford-sponsored marketing programs have a first payment date that is more than 45 days after the contract is signed.

Table of Contents

 

Each customer that elects to finance through the dealer completes a credit application.  If the dealer is requesting that Ford Credit purchase the retail installment sale contract, the dealer submits the credit application electronically to Ford Credit, typically through online systems, together with information about the proposed terms of the retail installment sale contract.

 

Credit Application and Scoring Models.  After receiving a credit application submitted by a dealer, Ford Credit automatically obtains a credit report on the applicant from a national credit bureau, which includes a credit score and other credit information.  Ford Credit generally selects a credit bureau based on its assessment of which credit bureau provides the most accurate and complete credit reports and a credit analyst may select an additional credit bureau for more information.  In some cases, the applicant is a business entity and a credit report from a commercial credit bureau is used as described in “— Commercial Accounts” below.  In a small number of cases, a credit report is not available because an applicant does not have a sufficient credit history.  Ford Credit also automatically obtains other information on the applicant including results of compliance and fraud checks, whether the applicant has other active credit applications submitted to Ford Credit, whether the applicant is a current or former Ford Credit customer, and in some cases, other available credit information.

 

If an individual applicant has sufficient recent credit history, the credit bureau information used in Ford Credit’s origination scoring models includes the applicant’s credit risk score, often called a FICO® score.  A FICO® score is generated using statistical models created by Fair Isaac Corporation and measures the likelihood that an applicant will become severely delinquent.  FICO® is a registered trademark of Fair Isaac Corporation.  FICO® models are updated from time to time.  Ford Credit currently uses scores designed specifically for automotive financing known as FICO® 8 scores.  FICO® scores range from 250 to 900.  An applicant’s FICO® score is a factor in Ford Credit’s consumer origination scoring models.  An applicant’s loan-to-value and payment-to-income ratios are also factors in Ford Credit’s consumer origination scoring models.

 

The first step Ford Credit takes on receipt of an application is to classify the applicant based on whether the applicant is an individual or business entity, the applicant’s credit profile and whether the vehicle being financed is new or used.  This classification determines the particular origination scoring model to be used.  Ford Credit’s proprietary origination scoring models assess the creditworthiness of the applicant using the information in the applicant’s credit application, the proposed terms of the retail installment sale contract and the applicant’s credit bureau information and other information obtained by Ford Credit.  The origination scoring models are statistical tools used to differentiate credit applicants based on their probability of paying the amounts due under their contracts.  The origination scoring models assign a proprietary risk score for each applicant that is used in Ford Credit’s evaluation process.  The origination scoring models update the applicant’s risk score in real time throughout the evaluation and purchasing process if any of the inputs to the risk score change.  However, using origination scoring models does not eliminate credit risk in Ford Credit’s origination, underwriting and purchasing practices.

 

Ford Credit’s origination scoring models were developed internally based on Ford Credit’s portfolio databases of millions of contracts originated over several decades to identify key variables that predict an applicant’s probability of paying the amount due under the contract.  Ford Credit regularly reviews its origination scoring models to confirm the continued business significance and statistical predictability of the variables, including comparing actual and predicted performance of its retail portfolio.  Ford Credit develops new origination scoring models for its consumer, commercial and commercial line of credit applicants on a regular cycle plan.  Ford Credit may make adjustments to improve the performance of the origination scoring models between development cycles by uniformly changing the overall risk scores or modifying the weighting of selected variables.

 

Underwriting and Credit Evaluation.  After all information is obtained and a proprietary risk score is generated, Ford Credit evaluates the application to determine whether to approve it.  Ford Credit’s decision process is based on a judgmental evaluation of the applicant, the credit application, the proposed terms of the contract, the credit bureau information, the proprietary risk score and other information.  The evaluation emphasizes the applicant’s ability to pay and creditworthiness focusing on payment, affordability, applicant credit history and stability as key considerations.  The creditworthiness of

Table of Contents

 

any co-applicant or guarantor is evaluated in a similar manner to the applicant and is also considered when determining whether to approve an application.

 

The loan-to-value ratio, or “LTV,” used by Ford Credit to evaluate credit applications is determined by dividing the loan amount by the collateral value of the vehicle.  The “loan amount” used in the LTV calculation for credit evaluation is the agreed on purchase price of the vehicle plus taxes and fees, dealer installed or other accessories and vehicle charging stations, minus any cash payments from Ford-sponsored marketing programs, vehicle trade-in value and cash down payment.  This amount is less than the amount financed, particularly if the applicant purchases additional products such as insurance and service contracts.  The collateral value in the LTV calculation is determined using the wholesale value of the vehicle.  If the financed vehicle is a new vehicle, including demonstrator vehicles, the wholesale value is generally the dealer invoice price but it may be increased to reflect equipment added to the vehicle including specialty bodies.  Ford Credit may adjust the wholesale value before calculating the LTV that is used in the origination scoring models.  If the financed vehicle is a used vehicle, excluding demonstrator vehicles, the wholesale value is the amount entered by the dealer during the credit application process.  In some cases, the credit analyst adjusts or updates the dealer entered value, typically by using the National Auto Dealers Association Official Used Car Guide or Kelley Blue Book, but other sources of information such as other vehicle value guides, auction or purchase price or other methods may be used.

 

The payment-to-income ratio, or “PTI,” is determined by dividing the monthly payment by the combined gross monthly income and other monthly income of the applicant and any co-applicant as reported by them in the credit application or as adjusted in limited cases through Ford Credit’s income verification process.  PTI is not calculated for commercial use contracts with a business entity as the primary obligor.  PTI is not used for credit evaluation for a limited number of contracts where the applicant stated no income or negligible income and contracts where Ford Credit has determined that the PTI is unreliable.

 

All credit applications automatically go into Ford Credit’s electronic decisioning process in order to expedite the review of applications, promote consistent decisions and allow Ford Credit to make and communicate decisions to dealers faster and more efficiently.  The electronic decisioning process first identifies the applications to approve, then the applications to reject, and then the remaining applications are assigned to a credit analyst for further evaluation.  Electronic approval and rejection decisions are made using models that generally replicate the judgmental evaluation that would be applied by an experienced credit analyst based on various combinations of factors that in Ford Credit’s experience have resulted in credit analyst approval or rejection.  Ford Credit regularly reviews its electronic decisioning process and makes adjustments in response to market conditions, financing terms and the performance of its portfolio or to increase or decrease the percentage of applications electronically approved or rejected.  Ford Credit electronically approves between approximately 45% to 55% of the contracts that are purchased.  Ford Credit uses a single level underwriting standard for all credit applications including those that are electronically decisioned and those that are decisioned by a credit analyst.  Many applications are evaluated and approved by a credit analyst although they were not approved in the electronic decisioning process.

 

On receipt of a credit application, the credit analyst judgmentally evaluates the credit application using uniform system processes and system based decision-making tools in the framework of Ford Credit’s purchasing standards.  Each credit application is reviewed separately and the credit analyst makes an individual decision based on the credit analyst’s assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of the application.  The credit analyst may work with the dealer to determine acceptable contract terms for applications that cannot be approved as originally submitted.  The credit analyst may condition approval on the addition of a qualified co-applicant or guarantor or on changes to the financing terms, such as a higher cash down payment or a less expensive vehicle being financed.  For less creditworthy applicants, or if there is a discrepancy in the information provided by the applicant, the credit analyst may verify the identity, employment, income, residency and other applicant information using Ford Credit’s established procedures before a decision is made.

Table of Contents

 

To support consistent credit and purchase decisions and the overall quality of the portfolio, as described in Portfolio Quality” below, Ford Credit establishes purchasing standards and procedures including purchase quality guidelines and risk factor guidelines that are used by its credit analysts.  Purchase quality guidelines set targets for the purchase of lower and marginal quality contracts and may be set at different levels for different Ford Credit business regions.  Risk factor guidelines provide a framework of evaluation guidelines for specific attributes of an application, including affordability measures like PTI and debt-to-income ratios, FICO® score, LTV and contract term.  Risk factor guidelines and purchase quality guidelines are not strict limits or requirements and the credit analysts evaluating an application determine whether there may be other factors that, in their judgment, support approval of the application, including demonstrated ability to pay, strong credit history, prior favorable Ford Credit financing experience, residency and employment stability and eligibility for Ford-sponsored marketing programs.  For used vehicles, Ford Credit’s purchasing guidelines recommend shorter contract terms for older vehicles.  Ford Credit also uses performance monitoring software to improve process discipline and consistency of decisions.  Notwithstanding these guidelines, procedures and software, the judgment of the credit analyst is the most important aspect of Ford Credit’s evaluation and decision process.

 

Each credit analyst is assigned a maximum approval level that is based on the applicant’s total outstanding balances with Ford Credit.  More experienced credit analysts are assigned higher approval levels.  Managers with higher approval authority review or approve any credit application that exceeds the credit analyst’s approval level or that contain specific characteristics or combinations of characteristics identified in Ford Credit’s risk factor guidelines.  Ford Credit’s credit and purchase decisions are made independently of Ford, and Ford cannot require Ford Credit to approve a credit application or purchase a contract that would not otherwise be approved or purchased through Ford Credit’s decision process.

 

Ford Credit also has a compliance management program designed to ensure that Ford Credit’s processes comply with legal and regulatory requirements.  The compliance management program is commensurate with Ford Credit’s structure and the complexity of the products and services it offers.

 

Credit and purchase decisions are typically communicated to the dealer electronically.  Approvals and rejections made through the electronic decisioning process are communicated in seconds.  For credit applications not electronically approved or rejected, Ford Credit typically makes a decision within 20 minutes of receipt of an application.  Less creditworthy applicants may require additional investigation and take longer before a decision can be made.  Approximately 99% of Ford Credit’s decisions are made within one hour of receipt of an application.

 

Contract Purchasing Process.  For approved credit applications, dealers must submit retail installment sale contracts, signed by both the customer and the dealer, on paper or electronic forms approved by Ford Credit and determined by Ford Credit to be in compliance with law and enforceable.  After the dealer submits a completed contract, Ford Credit confirms that the terms of the contract are consistent with the application approval and checks for errors apparent in the contract disclosures made by the dealer.  If the contract is consistent with the approval but contains minor errors, Ford Credit may purchase the contract and send a correction notice to the customer or obtain a signed modification from the customer.  If the contract is not consistent with the approval or has more significant errors, Ford Credit returns it to the dealer for correction or a new contract.

 

As part of the approval process, Ford Credit establishes a “dealer discount rate” that is used to calculate Ford Credit’s purchase price for the contract.  This dealer discount rate is determined based on a combination of factors, including Ford Credit’s proprietary risk score, the applicant’s FICO® score and the contract characteristics.  For commercial applicants that do not have a FICO® score, the dealer discount rate is determined based on Ford Credit’s proprietary risk score and the contract characteristics.  If the contract APR exceeds the dealer discount rate by more than the limits established by Ford Credit, then Ford Credit either will not purchase the contract or will reduce the APR to meet Ford Credit guidelines.  In the case of subvened-APR contracts, the dealer discount rate will match the APR established by Ford.  In some cases Ford Credit may approve a reduced dealer discount rate.  These rate concessions generally are granted to dealers who could obtain lower rates from other financing providers or to resolve a discrepancy in the originally quoted dealer discount rate.  Ford and Ford Credit may also

 

43


Table of Contents

 

offer marketing programs where the dealer discount rate is determined primarily based on the specific applicant or contract characteristics rather than on the risk scores.  These programs are generally offered to attract particular types of applicants, such as current college students and recent college graduates or first time buyers of Ford or Lincoln vehicles, or to promote sales of particular Ford and Lincoln vehicles.

 

Ford Credit purchases the contract from the dealer for an amount generally equal to the amount financed on the contract plus one or more of a set fee, a percentage of the amount financed and a portion of the finance charge on the contract.  The portion of the finance charge earned by the dealer is generally calculated using the difference between the dealer discount rate set by Ford Credit and the APR on the contract.

 

Each dealer signs an assignment agreement with Ford Credit and represents that the contract assigned to Ford Credit is complete, all required contract disclosures were properly made and all material statements made to Ford Credit by the dealer on behalf of the customer are true.  If, after investigation, these representations are later determined to be untrue, including due to fraud, Ford Credit may require the dealer to repurchase the contract and the contract is paid off in Ford Credit’s receivables system, or may retain the contract and obtain a dealer guaranty in case there is a subsequent default on the contract.

 

Contract Maintenance.  Contracts purchased by Ford Credit are either completed in paper form and are physically signed by the customer or are completed in electronic form and are electronically signed by the customer.  Ford Credit maintains possession of the paper contracts and related documents through a third-party vendor in secure, limited access facilities.  These facilities use security access measures, including physical badge or biometric authentication and may use video surveillance.  These facilities have fire suppression systems and are subject to disaster recovery and business continuity plans to ensure safekeeping and preservation of the documents.  The electronic contracts are stored in a specially-designed computer system or “electronic vault” maintained by a third-party vendor that identifies Ford Credit as the owner and establishes Ford Credit’s “control” of the electronic contracts.  Access to the electronic vault is limited to users having a business need and controlled by user identification, passwords, machine token authentication and access logs.  Access to the data center housing the electronic vault is limited to authorized system maintenance users and is controlled by intrusion software, video surveillance and physical badge or biometric authentication.  The data center and electronic vault are subject to disaster recovery and business continuity plans.

 

All contracts purchased by Ford Credit are entered into Ford Credit’s originations and receivables systems and assigned a unique account number for the life of the contract.  Ford Credit considers a contract to be originated on the date the contract is signed by the customer and finance charges start to accrue on the contract as of that date.

 

Purchased contracts and related documents are electronically imaged.  For electronic contracts, a separate image of the original contract is created for servicing purposes.  Once imaged, the documents may be viewed on Ford Credit’s systems for servicing, but may not be altered or deleted from those systems.  Additional documents generated or received by Ford Credit during servicing are also added to the imaged file.

 

Vehicle Title.  The assignment agreement also requires the dealer to apply immediately for a certificate of title for the financed vehicle that identifies Ford Credit as the lienholder.  Ford Credit verifies that its lien is noted on the certificate of title.  In most states, the verification occurs when the certificate of title is received.  In the states that do not provide the certificate of title to the lienholder, Ford Credit verifies its lien through a notice from the state.  If Ford Credit cannot verify that its lien is noted on the certificate of title within an established period of time or if the lien notation is incorrect, it follows up with the dealer, the customer or state vehicle regulatory agencies to properly note or correct the lien.

 

Ford Credit stores paper certificates of title in Ford Credit facilities segregated from the origination and servicing functions and controlled by physical badge authentication or at the secure facilities of a vendor.  Access to the title storage area is limited to authorized personnel with a business need.  Ford

Table of Contents

 

Credit also uses the electronic certificate of title process offered in many states that maintain electronic records of the certificate of title and lienholder information.  Electronic titles are processed by a third-party vendor and, in some cases, are converted to paper titles and stored at a Ford Credit facility or at the secure facilities of a vendor.

 

Types of Contracts and Vehicle Classification.  Most contracts purchased by Ford Credit are to finance new Ford or Lincoln vehicles that have not had their title registered.  Ford Credit also purchases contracts to finance vehicles that were previously used by the dealer as courtesy vehicles for the dealer’s service customers before being sold to retail customers.  Ford Credit considers those courtesy vehicles to be new vehicles at the time of sale to a retail customer unless state law requires such vehicles to be classified as used vehicles for financing purposes or the vehicle did not satisfy limits set by Ford Credit on mileage and condition for courtesy vehicles.  When required by state law, the title for a courtesy vehicle is registered by the relevant dealership before the financed vehicle is sold to a retail customer.  Most contracts purchased by Ford Credit are with individuals who use the financed vehicle for personal use.

 

Ford Credit also purchases contracts to finance used vehicles, including certified pre-owned Ford and Lincoln vehicles.  A certified pre-owned vehicle must satisfy manufacturer-established mileage limits, condition requirements and routine maintenance standards and typically is still covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.  Certified pre-owned vehicles are eligible for manufacturer sponsored incentive marketing programs.  Ford Credit may also purchase contracts to finance vehicles previously used by the dealer as demonstrator vehicles before being sold to retail customers.  Demonstrator vehicles, which generally have not been driven more than 6,000 miles, are classified as used vehicles for purposes of Ford Credit’s retail securitization programs.

 

Ford Credit’s standard policy is to purchase contracts with terms up to 84 months.  The contracts purchased by Ford Credit are simple interest, fixed rate contracts that amortize the amount financed over a series of payments.  Ford Credit may change its standard policy on existing products or introduce new financing products for retail customers in response to competitive pressures, customer demand or new business strategies.

 

Ford Credit classifies vehicles into categories.  The car category includes sedans, hatchbacks and coupes.  The light truck category includes minivans, vans and light pick-up trucks including a limited number that may have specialty bodies.  The truck category includes medium and heavy trucks with specialty bodies.  The utility category includes wagons, SUVs and cross-overs.

 

Commercial Accounts.  Some of the retail installment sale contracts purchased by Ford Credit are for customers who are either business entities or individuals who use the financed vehicle for commercial purposes.  Commercial customers may have multiple vehicles financed with Ford Credit and a portion of commercial customers have lines of credit that allow the customer to finance multiple vehicles up to the approved amount under pre-established terms, subject to some conditions.  No single commercial customer has financed the purchase of vehicles under a commercial line of credit representing more than 1% of the principal balance of Ford Credit’s portfolio of retail installment sale contracts.

 

Ford Credit’s origination scoring models for commercial applicants that are business entities include factors relevant to businesses and use commercial credit bureau information.  Consumer credit bureaus do not provide data or FICO® scores for business entities.  The origination scoring models for commercial applications that include individuals as the applicant, co-applicant or guarantor use the individual’s FICO® score, but still factor in the commercial use of the financed vehicle and commercial credit bureau information if the commercial applicant is a business entity.

 

For the majority of commercial applicants that are business entities, the commercial credit bureau information used in Ford Credit’s origination scoring models includes the primary applicant’s Small Business Credit Share, or SBCS® score, even if there is also a FICO® score because the commercial application included an individual.  SBCS® scores are generated using statistical models created by Experian and measure the likelihood that a commercial applicant will become severely delinquent.  SBCS® scores range from 0 to 100.  Ford Credit uses the SBCS® Acquisition Score in its commercial

 

45


Table of Contents

 

origination scoring models to generate a proprietary risk score for the applicants.  Commercial credit bureau scores are not as significant a factor in Ford Credit’s commercial origination scoring models as FICO® scores are in the consumer origination scoring models.

 

If the credit analyst requires additional information on a commercial applicant, the analyst may obtain a credit report from Dun & Bradstreet.  The analyst may regenerate the applicant’s proprietary risk score through the commercial origination scoring models using data from this report, including various scores on the applicant.  The credit report obtained from Dun & Bradstreet also includes the applicant’s D&B Delinquency Predictor Score, a commercial credit score that is created by Dun & Bradstreet to measure the likelihood that a business will become severely delinquent.  D&B Delinquency Predictor Scores range from 101 to 670.  Ford Credit uses the D&B Delinquency Predictor Score in its commercial origination scoring models if the credit analyst determines that the Dun & Bradstreet credit report provides more fulsome information for an applicant or an SBCS® Acquisition Score is unavailable for a commercial applicant that is a business entity.

 

For commercial line of credit applicants, there are two steps in the process.  First, Ford Credit evaluates the applicant for approval of the line of credit that includes reviewing its financial statements, proposed vehicle usage and a commercial credit report from Dun & Bradstreet that contains payment history information and various scores on the applicant.  Once the applicant is approved for a line of credit, the second step in the process occurs each time there is a request to finance the purchase of a vehicle under the line of credit.  At this time, Ford Credit gathers the same information for commercial customers with a line of credit as it does for other commercial customers, including a Dun & Bradstreet credit report and generates a proprietary risk score for each applicant.  The key considerations for requests to finance the purchase of a vehicle under a line of credit are that there is capacity under the line of credit and there have been no significant changes to the customer’s financial condition.

 

Similar to purchase decisions for consumer applicants, purchase decisions for commercial applicants emphasize ability to pay and creditworthiness, but also recognize that commercial vehicles may have specialty bodies or equipment added and are often put to more demanding uses, which may reduce the resale value of the financed vehicle.  For these reasons, Ford Credit uses a different electronic decisioning process for commercial applicants and its purchase standards are often different which generally results in larger down payments and shorter terms.

 

An important difference between commercial contracts and other contracts is that commercial contracts may be included in a cross collateral agreement.  These agreements allow Ford Credit to enforce collection and repossession rights against all contracts and financed vehicles with the same customer even if payments for some contracts are current.  Payments or other amounts received on a specific contract, such as repossession sale proceeds, generally are applied first to that contract.  Excess amounts collected for one contract may be applied to other contracts with the same customer to reduce losses.

 

Portfolio QualityFord Credit uses its purchasing standards to manage the overall quality of its portfolio of retail installment sale contracts.  Ford Credit reviews credit analysts’ decisions regularly to ensure they are consistent with Ford Credit’s purchasing standards and credit approval authority.  In addition, a specific auditing group within Ford Credit regularly reviews the underwriting process and compliance with company procedures and legal requirements.

 

Ford Credit uses credit performance and purchase quality reports to monitor credit quality, consistency of purchase decisions and portfolio composition, including levels of lower and marginal quality contracts, and to provide ongoing training for credit analysts.  These reports are generated at several levels including total company, geographic region, business center, dealer and credit analyst.

 

Ford Credit regularly reviews and analyzes its portfolio of receivables to evaluate the effectiveness of its credit decisions and purchasing standards.  If external economic factors, credit losses or delinquencies, market conditions, consumer credit trends, customer characteristics or other factors change, Ford Credit may adjust its purchasing standards and procedures, including purchase quality

(1)                 Weighted averages are weighted by the original principal balance of each contract.

(2)                 As a percentage of the original principal balance of contracts purchased during the period.

(3)                 Excludes contracts that have primary obligors who do not have FICO® scores because they (a) are not individuals and use financed vehicles for commercial purposes, or (b) are individuals with minimal or no recent credit history.  For a description of FICO® scores, you should read “Sponsor and Servicer — Origination, Underwriting and Purchasing.

(4)                 Contracts with obligors who are individuals with minimal or no recent credit history.

(5)                 The LTV for a contract for purposes of this table is the original amount financed divided by the wholesale value of the vehicle.

(6)                 The PTI for a contract is the monthly payment divided by the monthly combined income of the obligor and any co-obligor.  Excludes commercial use contracts with business entities as the primary obligor, contracts where the applicant stated no income or negligible income in the credit application and contracts where Ford Credit has determined that the PTI is unreliable.

(7)                 Contracts originated under a Ford-sponsored low-APR vehicle marketing program.

(8)                 Contracts with obligors who use the financed vehicle for commercial purposes.  These obligors may be business entities or individuals.

 

Ford Credit’s origination and purchasing policies focus on supporting the sale of new Ford vehicles.  The number of contracts purchased by Ford Credit typically is correlated to Ford vehicle sales and is influenced by market conditions and competitive pressures.  A substantial percentage of the contracts purchased by Ford Credit are originated under Ford-sponsored marketing programs.  As a result, changes in origination volumes and the types of contracts purchased are caused primarily by changes in sales of Ford vehicles and changes in Ford-sponsored marketing programs.  For example, the number of retail installment sale contracts purchased by Ford Credit during the first nine months of 2020 and the aggregate original principal balance of Ford Credit’s portfolio of retail installment sale contracts were higher than during the same period the year before because, during the first nine months of 2020, Ford-sponsored marketing programs offered a variety of attractive incentives to customers in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which significantly increased Ford Credit’s financing share of Ford sales.  Those marketing programs were generally available to a broad group of applicants to finance the purchase of most Ford vehicle models through the second quarter of 2020 and a limited number of those marketing programs with narrower eligibility criteria continued to be offered for a portion of the third quarter of 2020.

In addition, Ford vehicle sales have shifted in recent years toward light trucks and SUVs, and toward higher series and trim vehicles of all types, all of which have increased the sales prices of financed vehicles and financed amounts, offsetting the effect of a downward trend in the number of contracts originated on the aggregate original principal balance of the portfolio.  The relative cost and availability of funding sources also impact Ford Credit’s willingness to purchase some retail installment sale contracts and Ford Credit may limit purchases of some types of contracts for risk management purposes.

 

The weighted average original term (in months) of the contracts purchased by Ford Credit and the percentage of the principal balance of contracts purchased by Ford Credit with an original term greater than 60 months have generally increased since 2015. Increases in the weighted average original term (in months) of the contracts purchased by Ford Credit during that time were caused, in part, by Ford-sponsored marketing programs that included longer-term contracts such as 0% financing for up to 84-month contracts.  Also during that time, the percentage of the principal balance of contracts purchased by Ford Credit with an original term greater than 60 months has increased and decreased in correlation with increases and decreases of the original principal balance of 72-month, 75-month, and 84-month contracts purchased by Ford Credit, each of which are emphasized or deemphasized by Ford-sponsored marketing programs from time to time.  For example, Ford-sponsored marketing programs offered applicants a variety of attractive incentives that emphasized longer-term contracts during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to an increase in both the weighted average original term (in months) of the contracts purchased by Ford Credit and the percentage of the principal balance of contracts purchased by Ford Credit with an original term greater than 60 months, including those contracts with an original term of 84 months.

 

Ford Credit has generally purchased an increasing percentage of 75-month and 84-month contracts during the recent periods reflected in the table above.  During those periods, the percentage of the principal balance of 75-month contracts purchased by Ford Credit was between approximately 2% and 5% of the principal balance of all contracts purchased by Ford Credit.  Similarly, from 2015, when Ford Credit began purchasing 84-month contracts nationwide, through 2019, the percentage of the principal balance of 84-month contracts purchased by Ford Credit was between approximately 1.5% and 5.5% of the principal balance of all contracts purchased by Ford Credit.  During the first nine months of 2020, Ford-sponsored marketing programs offered in response to the COVID-19 pandemic emphasized subvened financing for longer-term contracts, and as a result the percentage of the principal balance of 84-month contracts purchased by Ford Credit increased to 11.1% of the principal balance of all contracts purchased by Ford Credit.

 

Ford-sponsored marketing programs typically offer applicants a choice between cash rebates and subvened financing, and the applicant’s choice changes the proportion of subvened-APR contracts purchased by Ford Credit.  The relative attractiveness to applicants of a cash rebate or subvened financing depends on a number of factors including the amount of the cash rebate, the amount of the subvention and the availability in the market of low-rate financing for the applicant.  The combination of these factors can lead to an increase or decrease in subvened-APR contracts purchased by Ford Credit. The percentage of the principal balance of subvened-APR contracts purchased by Ford Credit, as reflected in the table above, is also affected by changes in the number of contracts Ford Credit purchases at its standard financing rate.

 

There are a variety of factors that affect the weighted average LTV of contracts purchased by Ford Credit, including whether obligors choose subvened financing under Ford-sponsored marketing programs.  Obligors that choose subvened financing generally have a higher original amount financed than other similarly situated obligors because they have a smaller, if any, cash rebate to apply.

 

During the periods reflected in the table above, new vehicle contracts have constituted a relatively consistent percentage of the original principal balance of all contracts purchased by Ford Credit.  Fluctuations in the relative proportion of new and used vehicle contracts purchased by Ford Credit have largely been influenced by the attractiveness and availability of Ford-sponsored marketing programs that incentivized dealers to sell certified pre-owned vehicles and offered customers both subvened financing and cash rebates toward the purchase of a certified pre-owned vehicle.  During the periods reflected in

Table of Contents

 

the table above, receivables related to certified pre-owned vehicles represented between approximately 68% and 81% of the principal balance of used vehicle contracts purchased by Ford Credit and between approximately 4.5% and 8% of all of the contracts purchased by Ford Credit.

 

During the first nine months of 2020, the weighted average FICO® score of primary obligors on retail installment sale contracts purchased by Ford Credit declined by approximately 9 score points to 731, which primarily reflects the effects of Ford Credit’s implementation of advanced statistical tools in the development of its origination scoring models, as discussed further under “Sponsor and Servicer — Material Changes to Origination, Underwriting and Purchasing Policies and Procedures.

 

The percentage of contracts with obligors who use the financed vehicle for commercial purposes purchased by Ford Credit fell during the first nine months of 2020 to 15% of the principal balance of all contracts purchased by Ford Credit; however, the number of contracts purchased by Ford Credit with obligors who use the financed vehicle for commercial purposes was modestly higher compared to the same period during the prior year, whereas the total number of contracts purchased by Ford Credit was significantly higher.

 

Material Changes to Origination, Underwriting and Purchasing Policies and Procedures

 

As part of its regular cycle plan, Ford Credit launched new origination scoring models for consumer credit applicants in January 2018, for commercial credit applicants in April 2015 and again in January 2019 and for commercial line of credit applicants in May 2017.

 

In October 2018, Ford Credit began redeveloping certain of its origination scoring models for consumer credit applicants using advanced statistical tools to improve data interactions and evaluate and create more predictive variables, which enhance the models’ ability to assess risk.  Those redeveloped models place a greater emphasis on the newly created variables, which continue to be derived from certain information in an applicant’s credit bureau report, other available credit information and the proposed contract terms, with relatively less emphasis placed on traditional variables such as an applicant’s FICO® score.  Ford Credit’s redeveloped origination scoring models more accurately assign the applicant a proprietary risk score based on the probability of the applicant paying the amounts due under their contract.  Ford Credit continues to expand the use of those tools in the development of its origination scoring models.

 

In 2015, Ford Credit conducted a limited pilot program to purchase 84-month contracts and in April 2016 changed its standard policy in response to strong customer interest to begin purchasing 84-month contracts nationwide.  84-month contracts are offered to certain applicants meeting eligibility criteria established by Ford Credit that generally limit availability to those applicants that Ford Credit’s origination scoring models assess to have lower risk.  Most of the 84-month contracts purchased by Ford Credit are originated under Ford-sponsored marketing programs to finance the purchase of new vehicles for the applicants’ personal use.  In March 2020, Ford Credit revised its purchase quality guidelines and began offering 84-month contracts to an expanded range of applicants who may have lower FICO® scores and higher LTVs.  However, Ford Credit did not modify its guidelines for proprietary risk scores at that time, which continue to limit the availability of 84-month contracts to applicants assessed to have lower risk.  For more details about Ford Credit’s origination, underwriting and purchasing policies and procedures, you should read “Sponsor and ServicerOrigination, Underwriting and Purchasing.”

 

Servicing Experience

 

Ford Credit will be the servicer for the receivables and this securitization transaction.  Ford Credit will be responsible for all servicing functions, except that the indenture trustee will be responsible for making payments to the noteholders based on information and calculations provided by the servicer.  Ford Credit has been the servicer for its publicly-registered and broadly-distributed Rule 144A securitization programs for retail installment sale contracts in the United States since it started securitizing in 1989.  None of the asset-backed securities in these programs have experienced any losses or events of default.  Ford Credit

has not had any material instances of noncompliance with the servicing criteria in its publicly-registered securitization program for retail receivables.

 

Ford Credit services all the receivables it originates, including receivables sold in securitizations and other structured financings.  Ford Credit uses technologies and has comprehensive online servicing policies and procedures that ensure common servicing practices and procedures are used for all receivables.  These technologies, practices and procedures are described in “— Servicing and Collections” below.  Servicing personnel do not know if a receivable they are servicing has been included in a securitization transaction.

 

Ford Credit’s servicing and collections systems maintain records for all receivables, track application of payments and maintain relevant information on the obligors and account status.  The systems also capture communications with obligors and allow management to review collection personnel activities.

 

As is customary in the servicing industry, Ford Credit engages vendors, which may be affiliates, to perform some servicing processes.  These processes include processing monthly lockbox payments from obligors, providing telephonic and internet payment systems, monitoring notation of Ford Credit’s lien on certificates of title for financed vehicles, imaging obligor documents, storing paper and electronic contracts and certificates of title, providing obligor communications and notifications and early stage collections support, communicating with obligors in languages other than English and performing data entry and administrative functions.  Ford Credit requires all vendors to follow processes set by Ford Credit or agreed to between Ford Credit and the vendor and regularly monitors them for compliance.  Vendors do not have the discretion to make decisions that would materially affect agreed on processes, amounts collected or the timing for amounts applied to obligor accounts.  Ford Credit believes these vendors could be replaced, if necessary.  Some vendors perform their services from locations outside the United States.

 

Ford Credit also contracts with a network of outside contractors to repossess vehicles and to collect some deficiencies for charged off accounts.  These contractors are monitored for compliance with the contracts, but due to the nature of these relationships, these contractors follow their own procedures.  Ford Credit uses online auctions and auction houses engaged by Ford to prepare and sell repossessed vehicles at auction.

 

As servicer of the securitization transaction, Ford Credit will prepare monthly investor reports, provide payment instructions to the indenture trustee and prepare annual compliance reports.

 

Servicing and Collections

 

GeneralFord Credit services the receivables from its centralized business centers and specialty servicing centers in the United States.  Ford Credit’s servicing operations are divided into three areas — account services, collections and vehicle liquidations.  The account services area handles the processing of non-collection related customer requests.  The collections area has two main functions — early stage delinquency, which includes account maintenance, and late stage delinquency, which focuses on loss prevention.  The vehicle liquidations area manages the disposal of repossessed vehicles.  Ford Credit’s collections operations are supported by workforce scheduling software, call monitoring software, auto dialing technology, collection systems and workflow operating systems.

 

Ford Credit has a centralized customer service center that handles inbound customer calls and a specialty service center for collection of charged off accounts.  Ford Credit uses specialty teams in its servicing operations for some functions such as total loss insurance claims, vehicle skip tracing, multiple account customers, accounts with bankrupt obligors and repossession reinstatements.  One or more of these functions may be located in a single center.

 

Payments and Application of Payments.  Ford Credit encourages obligors to make payments electronically, including through direct debit, online payment applications or telephone payment.  Obligors who do not pay electronically are instructed to send their monthly payments to one of several lockbox locations.

 

50


Table of Contents

 

Ford Credit applies almost all payments that are received before the designated processing time on each business day to an obligor’s account on the day payment is received.  By the end of the next business day, Ford Credit researches, matches and applies most payments that do not include enough information to match an account.  A specialized group at Ford Credit researches, matches and applies the remaining small number of payments that have not been matched to an account.

 

If a payment is applied to an obligor’s account but is later reversed or if a misapplied payment is reversed or corrected, an account may have negative collections for the period.

 

Obligors may prepay their contracts by making partial prepayments in multiple small amounts or larger lump sum payments at any time.  These partial prepayments result in the receivable being paid ahead and no payment being due for a period of time that is typically one or two months but may be longer depending on the amount of the prepayment.  Many obligors continue to make their monthly payments even though no payment is due.

 

Obligors may also request payoff quotes at any time.  If a payment is received that pays the remaining principal amount outstanding on an account, except up to $9.99, Ford Credit will consider the account paid in full and the remaining amount is written off.  If a payment is received that pays the remaining principal amount outstanding on an account, except more than $9.99 up to $49.99, Ford Credit makes a final attempt to collect the remaining amount and then will consider the account paid in full and the remaining amount is written off.

 

Ford Credit also writes off the remaining amount if the obligor dies and the estate of the deceased obligor meets requirements that include returning the vehicle.

 

Behavioral Scoring Models.  Ford Credit uses behavioral scoring models to assess the probability of payment default for each receivable and implements collection efforts based on its determination of the credit risk of the obligor on the payment due date.  These models assess a number of variables including origination characteristics, customer account history, payment patterns, expected loss or severity and periodically updated FICO® scores, if applicable.  Based on data from these models, receivables are grouped by risk category for collection.  These categories determine how soon an obligor will be contacted after a payment becomes delinquent, how often the obligor will be contacted during the delinquency and how long the account will remain in early stage collections before it is transferred to late stage collections where a more experienced customer service representative follows the account until the delinquency is resolved.  Ford Credit develops new behavioral scoring models on a regular cycle plan and regularly reviews the models to confirm the continued business significance and statistical predictability of the variables.  Ford Credit may make adjustments to improve the performance of the behavioral scoring models between development cycles by uniformly changing the overall scores or modifying the weighting of selected variables.

 

Servicing and Collections.  Most of the receivables are paid without any additional servicing or collection efforts.  If an account becomes delinquent, Ford Credit will attempt to contact the obligor to determine the reason for the delinquency and identify the obligor’s plans to resolve the delinquency. A number of communication methods are employed by Ford Credit to contact obligors whose account is delinquent and encourage a resolution to the delinquency, including auto dialing technology, directed telephone calls and text messaging.  Ford Credit considers an account to be delinquent if more than $49.99 of a scheduled payment is past due.  Accounts with bankrupt obligors, accounts in repossession status and accounts that have been charged off are not considered delinquent because they are removed from Ford Credit’s standard servicing process or have been accelerated.  Ford Credit assesses a late fee to delinquent accounts after the grace period has ended.  Most delinquent accounts are resolved because the obligor makes the past due payment.  If the obligor cannot make the past due payment Ford Credit frequently will extend the contract to allow an obligor to continue to make the normal monthly payments or the obligor may request and process a payment extension online.

 

A payment extension defers one or more past due payments and moves the scheduled maturity date by the number of months extended.  The length of a typical payment extension is two months although

 

51


Table of Contents

 

payment extensions may be granted for a single month.  Multiple payment extensions may be given over the term of the contract.  After a payment extension, the account generally is no longer considered delinquent.  Ford Credit’s guidelines for granting a payment extension generally require that the obligor’s payment problem is temporary, the obligor has an income source for making the next payment and the obligor made at least one payment since the contract’s origination.  Payment extensions are reviewed regularly by Ford Credit’s servicing managers.  When allowed by state law, Ford Credit usually collects a fee on extensions and additional interest will be earned on the extended contracts.  Ford Credit normally grants payment extensions on about 1% to 2% of the retail installment contracts in its portfolio each month.

 

Alternatively, if the obligor cannot make the past due payments, Ford Credit may rewrite the contract by amortizing the obligor’s outstanding balance over a longer contract term, which may result in the capitalization of previously accrued interest on the contract. In some circumstances, the contract is rewritten at a different interest rate.  Ford Credit’s guidelines for granting rewrites include requirements that the obligor has a stable source of income and that all original parties remain on the contract and sign an amendment to the contract unless more senior personnel approve it.  Ford Credit may reschedule an obligor’s payments if the obligor makes a large prepayment or a large insurance payment is received.  A reschedule generally means a reduction of the amount of the monthly payment over the same or shorter contract term.

 

From time to time Ford Credit may offer goodwill extensions to obligors whose contracts meet the eligibility criteria established by Ford Credit, including limits on delinquency.  For example, an extension of up to three months may be offered to obligors who live in an area affected by a natural disaster, such as a flood, hurricane, wildfire or tornado.  Ford Credit also may offer administrative extensions for one month.

 

Ford Credit may allow an obligor to change the monthly payment due date typically by not more than 30 days over the life of the contract, if, for example, the day on which the obligor is paid by their employer changes.  A due date change is generally not allowed for delinquent accounts and may not be used to bring an account current.  A due date change is not considered to be a payment extension.

 

Occasionally, Ford Credit allows a change to the obligors on the contract by releasing a co-obligor or adding a new obligor who may assume the contract with the original obligor either still obligated or released from the terms of the contract.  In rare instances, Ford Credit may permit a substitution of the financed vehicle with a vehicle of similar value.

 

In limited circumstances, Ford Credit may cancel its purchase of a contract if there are mistakes that cannot be corrected or to resolve an issue with a customer.  In this case, all payments and fees are reversed, including rate subvention, the contract is returned to the dealer, and Ford Credit’s lien on the financed vehicle is released.

 

Ford Credit uses periodic management reports on delinquencies, extensions, reschedules, rewrites and other measurements and operating audits to maintain control over the use of collection actions.  Ford Credit regularly tests new servicing procedures on controlled portions of its receivables to develop and refine its servicing procedures.  Areas tested include timing and frequency of collection calls and when it is more effective for the early stage delinquency team or the late stage delinquency team to contact the obligor.  If a test shows that a new procedure is an improvement over the existing procedure, the new servicing procedure is applied to the entire portfolio.  Ford Credit’s servicing policies and procedures may change over time.

 

Customer Service and Complaint Handling.  Ford Credit provides general account services to customers who contact its centralized customer service center by phone, email or in writing.  Services provided include processing address and due date changes, handling title paperwork if the customer moves to a different state, providing account payoff information and early stage collection support.  The customer service center also supports Ford Credit’s online account manager application that allows

Table of Contents

 

customers to manage their accounts by making payments, updating their information, such as address and phone number, and requesting payment and goodwill extensions.

 

Ford Credit sometimes receives complaints from customers about the origination and servicing of their contracts, including complaints about the dealer that sold the financed vehicle.  Customer complaints are handled by customer service and collections personnel, including a dedicated customer relations team, who are experienced and authorized to resolve customer issues.  These personnel use a defined escalation process to ensure customers have a means to further address concerns.  All complaints received are entered into a complaint tracking system for tracking, reporting and regulatory purposes.  Reports are monitored by senior operations management to promote uniform, consistent, and timely handling and to identify and implement process improvements.

 

Repossession and Charge OffFord Credit makes reasonable efforts to collect on delinquent accounts and to keep contracts current.  Repossession is considered only after other collection efforts have failed.  While some delinquent obligors voluntarily surrender their vehicles to Ford Credit, self-help repossession is the method used by Ford Credit in most cases and usually occurs by an independent contractor taking possession of the financed vehicle.  On average, Ford Credit repossesses the financed vehicle when the account is between 60 and 70 days delinquent, but may do so earlier or later depending on the risk of the account or other circumstances.  Following repossession, the obligor may redeem the vehicle and, in some states, may reinstate its contract under a mandatory reinstatement right before the vehicle is sold.  To minimize credit losses, Ford Credit may allow some obligors to reinstate their contracts in states where there is no mandatory reinstatement right.

 

The vast majority of repossessed vehicles are sold at a physical or online auction and the net sale proceeds are applied to the outstanding balance of the contract.  Ford Credit works with the vehicle remarketing department of Ford to manage the disposal of repossessed vehicles and seeks to maximize net sale proceeds, which equals gross auction proceeds less auction fees and expenses for reconditioning and transporting the vehicle to auction.  On average, vehicles are sold at auction within 40 to 55 days of repossession.  A small number of repossessed vehicles are sold through other means.  For example, some heavily damaged vehicles are sold for salvage or scrap and some vehicles may be sold directly to an insurance company if a claim has been filed on the repossessed vehicle.  Also, some vehicles with a limited resale market, such as some medium and heavy trucks and vehicles with specialty equipment, may be sold through a targeted bidding process to maximize net sale proceeds.

 

After standard collection efforts are exhausted and all collections, including net sale proceeds, refunds on cancelled service contracts and insurance products and insurance claims, are applied, Ford Credit charges off any remaining balance owed by the obligor.  In a limited number of cases, an obligor or a financed vehicle cannot be located after skip tracing and the remaining balance owed by the obligor is charged off as a skip account.

 

Ford Credit continues to pursue collection of deficiency balances and skip accounts after charge off through its specialty service center for charged off contracts.  Collection activities generally are continued until the contract is paid or settled in full, the contract is determined to be uncollectible due to bankruptcy of the obligor, or the obligor dies and the estate of the deceased obligor meets certain requirements that include returning the vehicle or the statute of limitations expires.  After several cycles of collection activity on charged off contracts, Ford Credit may sell them as a final effort to realize value.  Ford Credit may decide not to pursue further collection of the contract if the expected cost of collection exceeds the balance owed by the obligor.

 

Ford Credit may release the security interest in the financed vehicle to an insurer to receive proceeds from insurance covering the financed vehicle, as part of a discounted settlement of the contract or in connection with abandoning its rights in the financed vehicle.

 

In addition, Ford began sponsoring a marketing program in June 2020 that offers certain job loss assurance to personal use obligors who meet eligibility criteria established by Ford Credit.  That marketing program allows obligors who lose their job between 30 and 365 days after their retail

installment sale contract was originated to return the financed vehicle and request a reduction of any money otherwise owed under the contract.  Those requests are submitted to a non-Ford affiliated service provider that, if approved, will pay Ford Credit the difference between the NADA average trade-in-value for the returned vehicle and the amount outstanding under the contract, up to a maximum of $15,000, to reduce the obligor’s obligations.  If an obligor’s request is approved, the obligor remains obligated for any amounts outstanding under the contract that were not reduced by the payment to Ford Credit, including past due or deferred payments.  Ford Credit will use its typical processes to dispose of the returned vehicle and the net sale proceeds from that disposition will be applied to the obligor’s account.  To the extent that the net sale proceeds are less than the NADA average trade-in-value for the returned vehicle, the obligor is not obligated to pay Ford Credit the difference.

 

Bankruptcy AccountsWhen Ford Credit is notified that an obligor has filed for bankruptcy, the account is moved to its specialty team that handles accounts with bankrupt obligors.  Restrictions of the U.S. federal bankruptcy laws, including the automatic stay, generally prohibit Ford Credit from taking any collection action against the obligor or the financed vehicle without court approval.  In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the most common form of bankruptcy, the obligor is generally required to reaffirm its obligations, redeem the financed vehicle for a lump sum or return the financed vehicle.  If a contract is reaffirmed by the obligor, it will be returned to normal servicing after the obligor is discharged from bankruptcy.  In a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, the plan of reorganization usually requires the obligor to make payments over a three-year to five-year period.  The payments required are usually based on the full contract balance but may be based on the value of the financed vehicle at the time of bankruptcy, if the statutory period has passed between the obligor’s purchase of the financed vehicle and the bankruptcy filing and the debt was incurred for personal use by the obligor.  When the payments required under the plan of reorganization are completed and any additional legal requirements are satisfied, the obligor is discharged from liability for any remaining balance under the contract and Ford Credit charges off any remaining balance.

 

Delinquency, Repossession and Credit Loss Information

 

The following tables show Ford Credit’s delinquency, repossession and credit loss information for its portfolio of retail installment sale contracts.  The tables include contracts sold in securitizations and other transactions that Ford Credit continues to service.  Delinquencies, repossessions or credit losses may be influenced by a variety of economic, social, geographic and other factors beyond the control of Ford Credit.  It is not certain that the delinquency, repossession or credit loss information of a particular pool of retail installment sale contracts will be similar to the historical information shown below or that any trends shown in the tables will continue for any period.  It is also uncertain that the historical delinquency, repossession and credit loss information included in the tables below will accurately predict or be similar to the performance of Ford Credit’s portfolio of retail installment sale contracts or particular pools of retail installment sale contracts in the near future.

During the past several months, Ford Credit’s delinquency, repossession and credit loss information for its portfolio of retail installment sale contracts was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and corresponding alterations were made to Ford Credit’s repossession, vehicle liquidation and charge off activity.  For example, the average number of delinquencies and the aggregate principal balance of delinquent contracts as a percentage of portfolio outstanding, both for 31 – 60 days, were lower than prior periods and year-over-year, which is attributable in part to the goodwill extensions that Ford Credit granted obligors during the COVID-19 pandemic.  Similarly, as an initial response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Ford Credit temporarily suspended involuntary repossessions of financed vehicles from delinquent obligors nationwide, causing repossessions as a percentage of average number of contracts outstanding and aggregate net losses to decline and the average number of longer-term delinquencies and the aggregate principal balance of those delinquent contracts as a percentage of portfolio outstanding to increase.

 

Repossessions as a percentage of average number of contracts outstanding in 2015 were relatively low compared to the next several years because Ford Credit’s portfolio was growing relatively quickly during that time. As Ford Credit purchased an increasing number of new retail installment sale contracts, the weighted average months after origination, or “seasoning,” of its portfolio declined.  Generally, less seasoned contracts experience fewer repossessions on average than more seasoned contracts.  Between 2016 and 2018, when the growth of Ford Credit’s retail installment sale contract portfolio slowed and the seasoning of its portfolio increased, repossessions as a percentage of average number of contracts outstanding also generally increased from its earlier levels.  That repossession trend continued in 2019 because Ford Credit was not purchasing as many new retail installment sale contracts and the average number of contracts outstanding as well as the average portfolio outstanding (in millions) decreased while seasoning increased.

 

From 2015 through 2017, aggregate net losses increased because loss severities were higher on longer-term contracts in Ford Credit’s portfolio and contracts with higher average amounts financed at repossession, which resulted in greater amounts being charged off.  Ford Credit changed its calculation of net losses in 2015 to include repossession expenses incurred before charge off, which has increased aggregate net losses since then.  In addition, aggregate net losses also increased in 2016 and 2017 because repossessions as a percentage of average number of contracts outstanding increased.

 

Net losses as a percentage of average portfolio outstanding and average net loss on contracts charged off increased from 2015 through 2017 because loss severities were higher on longer-term contracts in Ford Credit’s portfolio and contracts with higher average amounts financed at repossession, which resulted in greater amounts being charged off.  Net losses as a percentage of average portfolio outstanding were partially offset by fewer contracts charged off in 2015 and increased in 2016 and 2017 as the number of contracts charged off increased.  In addition, in 2016 and 2017, an increased supply of used vehicles in the auction market contributed to weakness in used vehicle prices that caused Ford Credit’s average net loss on contracts charged off to increase.  However, net losses as a percentage of average portfolio outstanding and average net loss on contracts charged off decreased in 2018 because auction prices for used vehicles increased and loss severities were lower due to greater seasoning of contracts in Ford Credit’s portfolio prior to repossession.  Net losses as a percentage of average portfolio outstanding and average net loss on contracts charged off have been relatively consistent since then because of fewer repossessions.  Auction values remain variable and can be seasonal.

 

In March 2020, Ford Credit temporarily suspended involuntary repossessions of financed vehicles from delinquent obligors in certain states and, in April 2020, nationwide.  Ford Credit has resumed involuntary repossession of financed vehicles as doing so became feasible.  While Ford Credit temporarily suspended involuntary repossessions, it continued to accept the voluntary surrender of financed vehicles from delinquent obligors without interruption.  As a result of that temporary nationwide suspension of involuntary repossessions and during the transition back to normal activity, the amount of time after an account became delinquent until Ford Credit repossessed the financed vehicle exceeded Ford Credit’s historical experience.

Since April 2020, the time from repossession of a vehicle to sale at auction has significantly exceeded Ford Credit’s historical experience.  Between April 2020 and June 2020, that trend was attributable, in part, to a backlog of accounts and vehicles at auction awaiting sale, stemming from diminished auction staff capacity and activity due to the COVID-19 pandemic and associated governmental and corporate restrictions imposed earlier in 2020.  The physical auctions delayed by those restrictions have generally re-opened since then and their level of activity has increased, including to pre-pandemic measures in some cases.  Since June 2020, the time from repossession of a vehicle to sale at auction has continued to exceed Ford Credit’s historical experience because of delays in processing among various state-level government agencies that administer the transfer of certificates of title.

 

The trends in delinquency, repossession and credit losses for commercial use contracts purchased by Ford Credit were consistent with those trends in Ford Credit’s entire portfolio of retail installment sale contracts during the periods covered in the table above.  While the historical loss performance of commercial use contracts purchased by Ford Credit has been comparatively better than for personal use contracts purchased by Ford Credit, commercial use obligors are generally small businesses or self-employed and may experience more severe loss performance in an economic or industry specific downturn, including during the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

The delinquency and repossession performance for 84-month contracts purchased by Ford Credit has generally been better than the same trends for Ford Credit’s entire portfolio of retail installment sale contracts during the periods covered in the table above.  The comparatively positive performance of Ford Credit’s portfolio of 84-month contracts is due, in part, to the relatively limited and creditworthy segment of applicants to whom Ford Credit has historically offered that product and the comparably short seasoning of those contracts.  However, the average net loss on 84-month contracts charged off has been higher for 84-month contracts purchased by Ford Credit than for its entire portfolio of retail installment sale contracts because those 84-month contracts have a slower rate of amortization over the receivable’s longer term, typically have a higher amount financed at charge off and/or repossession and are usually associated with a higher loan-to-value ratio, although 84-month contracts are less frequently charged off or repossessed.

 

Delinquencies, repossessions and credit losses are shown as a percentage of Ford Credit’s portfolio of retail installment sale contracts.  During the periods covered in the table above, the portfolio size increased as new contracts were originated and decreased as existing receivables were paid down or liquidated.  The delinquency, repossession and credit loss percentages for a particular pool of contracts originated in any period may differ from the portfolio percentages shown in the table above.

 

Material Changes to Servicing Policies and Procedures

 

In early 2015, in response to sharply lower oil prices, Ford Credit proactively expanded risk monitoring of the portfolio located in oil producing regions. Ford Credit implemented actions to reduce potential losses by establishing dedicated teams for oil-related commercial accounts, accelerating commercial credit reviews, and enhancing customer support to establish earlier contact with delinquent obligors.  Those enhanced customer support measures remain in place.

 

As part of its regular cycle plan, Ford Credit launched new consumer behavioral scoring models in February 2018.  Ford Credit launched new commercial behavioral scoring models for its commercial portfolio in February 2016 and again in January 2019.

 

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Ford Credit modified its servicing policies and procedures to support its customers, initiated certain disaster recovery and business continuity plans and altered its repossession, vehicle liquidation and charge off activity.  For example, from mid-March through May 2020, Ford Credit granted goodwill extensions to certain retail customers to defer payments for up to three months, waived all fees related to those extensions and waived all late fees previously assessed on delinquent accounts for those customers that became current through those extensions.  Additionally, in March 2020, nearly all of Ford Credit’s employees transitioned from working in Ford Credit’s offices to working remotely.  Those employees continue to be aided by appropriate digital tools.  Certain other

Demands to Repurchase Receivables – Prior Securitized Pools

 

The transaction documents for prior securitizations of retail installment sale contracts sponsored by Ford Credit require Ford Credit or the depositor to repurchase a receivable for breach of a representation made about a receivable that has a material adverse effect on the receivable and is not corrected before the date the receivable is required to be repurchased.  During the three-year period ended September 30, 2020, neither Ford Credit nor any of the depositors, the indenture trustees or the owner trustees for those securitizations received a demand to repurchase any receivable in those securitizations.  Ford Credit, as securitizer, discloses all repurchase demands and related activity on SEC Form ABS-15G.  Ford Credit filed its most recent Form ABS-15G for repurchase demands related to the three-year period ended December 31, 2019, with the SEC on February 6, 2020.  Ford Credit’s CIK number is 0000038009.

 

Static Pool Information – Prior Securitized Pools

 

Annex A contains static pool information about prior amortizing pools of retail installment sale contracts securitized by Ford Credit.  The information in Annex A consists of summary information about the original characteristics of the prior securitized pools, cumulative losses, prepayments and delinquency data and as a graphical presentation of the data.  The original characteristics of the prior securitized pools may differ somewhat from each other and from the characteristics of the pool of receivables in this securitization transaction.  This is because Ford Credit’s portfolio of retail installment sale contracts, from which the securitized pools are selected, changes over time in response to changing economic and market conditions, although such changes generally occur gradually.  Over the period covered by the prior securitized pools, each successive prior securitized pool has generally exhibited higher FICO® scores, higher loan-to-value ratios and higher percentages of contracts with original terms greater than 60 months, subvened-APR contracts and commercial use contracts, although such changes between successive pools have not been significant.  As a result, prior securitized pools are generally comparable to the pool of receivables in this securitization transaction, however, the oldest prior securitized pools generally have the largest differences in characteristics to the pool of receivables in this securitization transaction.

 

Based on Ford Credit’s experience, the characteristics that are expected to most significantly influence the performance of a securitized pool of retail installment sale contracts are the FICO® scores, loan-to-value ratios and payment-to-income ratios of the contracts and whether the pool includes contracts with original terms greater than 60 months, subvened-APR contracts and commercial use contracts.  A securitized pool with lower FICO® scores or with higher loan-to-value and payment-to-income ratios and a higher percentage of longer-term contracts may perform worse comparatively.  A securitized pool with higher percentages of subvened-APR contracts and commercial use contracts may perform better comparatively.  However, despite the differences in these characteristics among the prior securitized pools, the performance of the related securitization transactions has been generally consistent over time, and any difference in performance in the pool of receivables in this securitization transaction compared to prior securitized pools may be more influenced by general macroeconomic conditions than differences in these characteristics.  In addition, while the historical loss performance of commercial use contracts has been comparatively better than for personal use contracts, commercial use obligors are generally small businesses or self-employed and may experience more severe loss performance in an economic or industry specific downturn.

 

In addition, although the selection criteria used for the retail installment sale contracts in the prior securitized pools have changed over time, these changes do not diminish the general comparability of the prior securitized pools to the pool of receivables in this securitization transaction.  Losses, prepayments

and delinquencies for the pool of receivables in this securitization transaction may differ from the information shown in Annex A for prior securitized pools.

 

RECEIVABLES

 

The following description of the receivables summarizes parts of the transaction documents, including the receivables purchase agreement, the sale and servicing agreement, the indenture and the asset representations review agreement, but is not a complete description of these agreements.  For more details about the transaction documents, you should read the forms of the transaction documents that are included as exhibits to the registration statement filed with the SEC that includes this prospectus.

 

Trust Assets

 

The primary assets of the trust will be a pool of receivables consisting of retail installment sale contracts secured by new and used cars, light trucks and utility vehicles.  On the closing date, Ford Credit will sell the receivables and other related assets to the depositor, and the depositor will sell the receivables and other related assets to the trust.  The trust assets will be pledged by the trust to the indenture trustee for the benefit of the noteholders.

 

The trust assets will be:

 

·                the receivables,

 

·                collections on the receivables applied on or after the cutoff date, including refunds for cancelled items originally included in the amount financed, such as service contracts, insurance and similar products,

 

·                security interests in the financed vehicles,

 

·                proceeds from claims on insurance companies for insurance covering the financed vehicles or the obligors,

 

·                rights under the transaction documents for the repurchase of receivables that breach representations and purchase of servicer impaired receivables and servicer modified receivables,

 

·                rights to funds and investments in bank accounts of the trust,

 

·                rights under the transaction documents to credit enhancement for the notes, and

 

·                all proceeds of the above.

 

The “initial pool balance” for the trust will be the aggregate principal balance of the receivables on the cutoff date.  The “pool balance” as of the last day of any month will be the aggregate principal balance of the receivables on that day excluding purchased and repurchased receivables.  The “principal balance” of a receivable as of the cutoff date or the last day of any month means the amount financed, less:

 

·                  collections on the receivables applied to reduce the principal balance of the receivable, and

 

·                  any amounts charged off on the receivable.

 

Selection of Receivables

 

The receivables were randomly selected by Ford Credit from its U.S. portfolio of retail installment sale contracts that meet the selection criteria as of the cutoff date.  Ford Credit did not use selection

Table of Contents

 

procedures believed to be adverse to the noteholders in selecting the receivables from its portfolio of receivables.  The selection criteria include that each receivable:

 

·                is a simple interest, fixed rate receivable with level monthly payments,

 

·                is not a receivable for a used vehicle with an original term of greater than 72 months,

 

·                is not a receivable for a new vehicle with an original term of greater than 84 months,

 

·                is secured by a car, light truck or utility vehicle,

 

·                is currently not more than 30 days delinquent as of the cutoff date (Ford Credit considers a receivable delinquent if more than $49.99 of a scheduled payment is overdue), although it may have been more than 30 days delinquent in the past,

 

·                has not been granted a payment extension or rewritten as of the cutoff date, and

 

·                is not subject to a bankruptcy proceeding as of the cutoff date.

 

Ford Credit changed its selection criteria for the securitization transactions included in Annex A over time to accommodate new financing products, increased vehicle pricing and changes in securitization market practices including changes resulting from regulatory requirements that may affect the selection criteria.  Ford Credit’s portfolio of retail installment sale contracts available for this securitization program changes over time as a result of changes in Ford Credit’s origination, underwriting and purchasing policies, Ford-sponsored marketing programs and Ford Credit’s sales of receivables in securitization and other funding transactions and programs, some of which may use different selection criteria than this program.  Ford Credit uses a single level underwriting standard and does not consider any of the receivables to be exceptions to its underwriting and purchasing standards described in “Sponsor and Servicer — Origination, Underwriting and Purchasing.”

 

Simple Interest Receivables

 

All of the receivables will be simple interest, fixed rate receivables.  A “simple interest receivable” amortizes the amount financed or principal balance of the receivable over a series of level monthly payments.  Payments under a simple interest receivable are applied first to interest accrued to the date of payment and then to reduce the principal balance.  Each payment consists of interest (if the APR is greater than 0.00%) and a portion of the principal balance of the receivable.  The interest amount of a payment is calculated by multiplying the unpaid principal balance of the receivable by its APR and by the number of days (as a fraction of a calendar year) since the prior payment was made.  The principal amount of a payment will be equal to the remainder of the payment.  A simple interest receivable may be prepaid without penalty, but the obligor will be required to pay interest to the date of prepayment.

 

If an obligor makes a payment before its scheduled due date, the portion of the payment applied to interest will be less than it would have been had the payment been made as scheduled because less interest will have accrued, and the portion of the payment applied to reduce the principal balance will be correspondingly greater.  Conversely, if an obligor makes a payment after its scheduled due date, the portion of the payment applied to interest will be greater than it would have been had the payment been made as scheduled because more interest will have accrued, and the portion of the payment applied to reduce the principal balance will be correspondingly less.

 

All of the receivables have level monthly payments.  The obligor pays a fixed monthly payment until the final maturity date.  The amount of the final payment is increased or decreased as necessary to repay the then unpaid principal balance due to the timing of payments made over the term of the contract, payment extensions or partial prepayments.

(2)               Characteristics in the table related to the term of the receivables may not match the asset-level data included as an exhibit to Form ABS-EE due to differences in how term is calculated for the securitized pool and how term is required to be calculated for asset-level data.

(3)               Includes 1,271 receivables with an original term of 84-months representing 4.72% of the initial pool balance.

(4)               The weighted average life of the receivables is calculated by (a) multiplying the scheduled principal payments by the number of months from the cutoff date, (b) adding the results, (c) dividing the sum by 12 and (d) dividing the result by the initial pool balance, and based on the assumption that payments are due on the first day of the month, all receivables pay as scheduled, starting one month from the cutoff date, with no delays, defaults or prepayments.

(5)               Excludes receivables representing 17.15% of the initial pool balance that have primary obligors who do not have FICO® scores because they (a) are not individuals or (b) are individuals with minimal or no recent credit history.  For a description of FICO® scores, you should read “Sponsor and Servicer – Origination, Underwriting and Purchasing.”  It is not certain that FICO® scores will be an accurate predictor of the likelihood of repayment of the related receivable or that any obligor’s credit score would not be lower if obtained as of the cutoff date.

(6)               Represents receivables with primary obligors that use the financed vehicles for personal use and do not have FICO® scores because they (a) are not individuals or (b) are individuals with minimal or no recent credit history.

(7)               The LTV for a receivable for purposes of this table is the original amount financed divided by the wholesale value of the vehicle.

(8)               The PTI for a receivable is the monthly payment divided by the monthly combined income of the obligor and any co-obligor.  Excludes commercial use receivables with a business entity as the primary obligor.  Also excludes a limited number of receivables where the applicant stated no income or negligible income and receivables where Ford Credit has determined that the PTI is unreliable.

(9)               Receivables originated under a Ford-sponsored low-APR vehicle marketing program offered by Ford.

(10)            Receivables with obligors who use the financed vehicle for commercial purposes.  These obligors may be business entities or individuals.

Table of Contents

 

_______________

 

(1)

Weighted averages are weighted by the principal balance of each receivable on the cutoff date.

(2)

Characteristics in the table related to the term of the receivables may not match the asset-level data included as an exhibit to Form ABS-EE due to differences in how term is calculated for the securitized pool and how term is required to be calculated for asset-level data.

(3)

Includes 1,589 receivables with an original term of 84-months representing 4.77% of the initial pool balance.

(4)

The weighted average life of the receivables is calculated by (a) multiplying the scheduled principal payments by the number of months from the cutoff date, (b) adding the results, (c) dividing the sum by 12 and (d) dividing the result by the initial pool balance, and based on the assumption that payments are due on the first day of the month, all receivables pay as scheduled, starting one month from the cutoff date, with no delays, defaults or prepayments.

(5)

Excludes receivables representing 17.13% of the initial pool balance that have primary obligors who do not have FICO® scores because they (a) are not individuals or (b) are individuals with minimal or no recent credit history. For a description of FICO® scores, you should read “Sponsor and Servicer – Origination, Underwriting and Purchasing.” It is not certain that FICO® scores will be an accurate predictor of the likelihood of repayment of the related receivable or that any obligor’s credit score would not be lower if obtained as of the cutoff date.

(6)

Represents receivables with primary obligors that use the financed vehicles for personal use and do not have FICO® scores because they (a) are not individuals or (b) are individuals with minimal or no recent credit history.

(7)

The LTV for a receivable for purposes of this table is the original amount financed divided by the wholesale value of the vehicle.

(8)

The PTI for a receivable is the monthly payment divided by the monthly combined income of the obligor and any co-obligor. Excludes commercial use receivables with a business entity as the primary obligor. Also excludes a limited number of receivables where the applicant stated no income or negligible income and receivables where Ford Credit has determined that the PTI is unreliable.

(9)

Receivables originated under a Ford-sponsored low-APR vehicle marketing program offered by Ford.

(10)

Receivables with obligors who use the financed vehicle for commercial purposes. These obligors may be business entities or individuals.

(11)

Car includes sedans, hatchbacks and coupes. Light truck includes minivans, vans and light pick-up trucks. Utility includes wagons, SUVs and cross-overs.

Initial Asset-Level Data

 

The depositor prepared asset-level data for the receivables relating to the issuance of notes with an aggregate initial principal amount of $1,052,770,000 and for the receivables relating to the issuance of notes with an aggregate initial principal amount of $1,315,800,000, or, in each case, the “initial asset-level data, and related information and filed it with the SEC on separate Form ABS-EEs by the date of filing of this prospectus.  Each Form ABS-EE, and the related information attached as exhibits to the form, is incorporated by reference into this prospectus.  The initial asset-level data contains detailed information for each receivable about its identification, origination, contract terms, financed vehicle, obligor, contract and payment activity, servicing and status.  Certain data in the initial asset-level data, such as data related to original term and remaining term, may not match the data provided in this prospectus due to differences in how this data is required to be calculated for the initial asset-level data and how this data is calculated for this prospectus.  Investors should carefully review the initial asset-level data and related information attached as exhibits to each Form ABS-EE.

 

For more details about the monthly asset-level data, you should read “Monthly Reports.”

 

Depositor Review of Receivables

 

The depositor performed a review of the receivables designed and effected to provide reasonable assurance that the disclosures about the receivables in this prospectus, including the initial asset-level data, are accurate in all material respects.  This review consisted of a statistical data review, a contract review, reviews of data and information by securitization funding personnel and reviews of factual information by senior management and legal office personnel of Ford Credit, and is supported by Ford Credit’s business and systems control processes.  The depositor consulted with, and was assisted by, responsible personnel of Ford Credit in performing the review.  The depositor also engaged a third party to assist it in its statistical data review and the contract review using procedures designed and established by the depositor and determined by the depositor to be sufficient for purposes of its review of the receivables.  The depositor takes full responsibility for the review of the receivables, the work performed by Ford Credit and third parties and the findings and conclusions of that review.

 

The depositor completed a multistep quality assurance review of the receivables selected for this securitization transaction in which Ford Credit securitization funding personnel applied systemic and manual filters to confirm that the receivables meet the selection criteria described in “Receivables —Selection of Receivables” as of the cutoff date.  As part of the pool selection process, certain data and information about the receivables that was transferred from Ford Credit’s receivables system and other system sources to Ford Credit’s securitization system, including the initial asset-level data, was systematically verified back to the source systems and the depositor found no discrepancies.

 

The pool composition and stratification tables in “Summary — Receivables” and “Receivables — Composition of Receivables” were systematically created by Ford Credit’s securitization system or calculated from data in Ford Credit’s securitization system or other source data by Ford Credit’s securitization funding personnel.  Ford Credit securitization funding personnel reviewed and verified the data and information in these tables as consistent with the data and information from Ford Credit’s securitization system and other source data.  In addition, the data and information in these tables were recalculated and confirmed to be consistent with the data and information from the securitization system and other source data.  To the extent applicable, the data and information in these tables were confirmed to be consistent with the initial asset-level data.  The depositor found no discrepancies in the pool composition and stratification tables.

 

The depositor reviewed a sample of 125 contract files randomly selected from the retail installment sale contracts, each of which are included in the two receivables pools described in this prospectus, and compared specific contract information in the sample contracts relevant to the data and information about the receivables in this prospectus to the same information in Ford Credit’s receivables system.  The depositor found zero errors out of 2,250 data points reviewed or compared in the sample contracts.  The depositor considers that the review indicates no systemic errors in the receivables data or other errors

 

74

that could have a material adverse effect on the data and information about the receivables in this prospectus.  Receivables systems data for the sample of 125 contract files was also compared against the initial asset-level data.

 

The depositor confirmed with senior management and legal office personnel of Ford Credit that they performed a comprehensive management and legal review of the information about the receivables in this prospectus.  Senior managers and legal office personnel reviewed and confirmed as accurate the descriptions of the general information about the receivables and how they were originated.  Ford Credit legal office personnel also reviewed and confirmed that the descriptions of the material terms of the receivables accurately reflect the terms of the forms of retail installment sale contracts purchased by Ford Credit, that the descriptions of the legal and regulatory considerations that may materially affect the performance of the receivables accurately reflect current federal and state law and regulations and case law precedents and that the summary of the representations and the remedies available for breach of these representations accurately reflect the terms of the securitization transaction documents.

 

The depositor’s review of the receivables, including the initial asset-level data, is supported by Ford Credit’s extensive control processes used in the day-to-day operation of its business.  These controls include financial reporting controls required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, regular internal reviews of key business functions, including receivables contract purchasing, servicing and systems processing, controls to verify compliance with procedures and legal requirements, and quality assurance reviews for credit decisions, contract purchases and securitization processes.  In addition, Ford Credit uses an integrated network of computer applications to ensure that information about the receivables is accurately entered, captured and maintained in its receivables and other systems and accurately transferred among its systems.  These computer systems are subject to change control processes, automated controls testing and control review programs to determine whether systems controls are operating effectively and accurately.  All of these controls and procedures ensure integrity of data and information and accuracy of securitization disclosures.

 

After completion of the review described above, the depositor concluded that it has reasonable assurance that the disclosure about the receivables in this prospectus, including the initial asset-level data, is accurate in all material respects.

 

Representations About Receivables

 

As sponsor, Ford Credit will make representations to the depositor about each receivable.  Generally, these representations relate to the origination of the receivable, the characteristics of the receivable, legal compliance, terms of the contract and status of the contract, as well as the selection criteria described in “— Selection of Receivables” above.  In addition, the representations include:

 

·                each receivable was originated and has been serviced in compliance with law in all material respects,

 

·                Ford Credit has a first priority perfected security interest or begun procedures that will result in the perfection of a first priority security interest in the related financed vehicle in favor of Ford Credit, and

 

·                each receivable is an enforceable payment obligation of the obligor and the obligor has not asserted a right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defenses against the receivable.

 

In addition, Ford Credit will make representations about the entire pool of receivables and other property sold to the depositor, including that:

 

·                immediately before the sale of the receivables and other property to the depositor, Ford Credit had, and immediately after the sale the depositor will have, good title to the receivables and other property, free and clear of liens not permitted by the transaction documents, and

 

75


Table of Contents

 

·                after the sale of the receivables and other property to the depositor, the depositor will have a first priority perfected security interest in the receivables and the other property.

 

The depositor will make similar representations to the trust about each receivable and the pool of receivables and other property.

 

Obligation to Repurchase Receivables

 

If any representation made by Ford Credit or the depositor about a receivable was untrue when made, the receivable was not eligible to be sold by Ford Credit to the depositor or by the depositor to the trust.  If either Ford Credit or the depositor knows, or receives notice from the trust, the owner trustee or the indenture trustee that any representation made about a receivable was untrue when made and the breach has a material adverse effect on the receivable, Ford Credit or the depositor must repurchase the receivable.  In addition, a noteholder may make a request or demand that a receivable be repurchased due to a breach of a representation made about the receivables and the indenture trustee will notify Ford Credit of any noteholder request or demand it receives.

 

Ford Credit and the depositor will be considered to know about a breach if a responsible person of Ford or Ford Credit knows of the breach.  A “responsible person” of a party is a designated employee or officer of the party who is responsible for this securitization transaction.  Ford Credit and the depositor will designate to the indenture trustee their responsible persons for this purpose.

 

None of the indenture trustee, the owner trustee, the asset representations reviewer or the servicer are obligated to monitor the receivables or investigate whether any representations have been breached.

 

If Ford Credit or the depositor knows of a breach or receives notice of a breach, a repurchase request or demand or a review report from the asset representations reviewer indicating that a test was failed for a receivable, Ford Credit or the depositor will investigate the receivable or receivables to confirm the breach and determine if it has a material adverse effect on any receivable.  Ford Credit will report any requests or demands to repurchase receivables and related activity and status on SEC Form ABS-15G.

 

If a repurchase is required, Ford Credit or the depositor will repurchase the receivable on the first payment date after the month in which it obtained knowledge or was notified of the breach or, at its option, on the next payment date, unless it corrects the breach in all material respects before that payment date.  On that payment date, Ford Credit or the depositor will repurchase the receivable, effective as of the last day of the second prior month by depositing in the collection account an amount generally equal to the remaining principal balance of the receivable plus 30 days of interest at the related APR.

 

These repurchase obligations will be the sole remedy of the trust, the indenture trustee and the noteholders for any losses resulting from a breach of the representations of Ford Credit or the depositor about the receivables.

 

Asset Representations Review

 

If two triggers are met, the asset representations reviewer will perform a review of receivables to test for compliance with the representations made by Ford Credit and the depositor about the receivables.  The first trigger is a delinquency trigger that will occur if the aggregate principal balance of receivables in the pool that are more than 60 days delinquent as a percentage of the pool balance as of the end of a month meets or exceeds the percentage for that month set by Ford Credit as described in “ — Delinquency Trigger” below.  If the delinquency trigger occurs, it will be reported on the investor report and reported in the Form 10-D for that month.  The second trigger is a voting trigger that will be met if, after the occurrence of a delinquency trigger, the noteholders of at least 5% of the principal amount of notes demand a vote and, subject to a 5% voting quorum, the noteholders of a majority of the principal amount of the notes that are voted vote to direct a review.

 

76


Table of Contents

 

Delinquency Trigger.  The “delinquency trigger” will be 0.70% for the first 12 months after the cutoff date, 1.40% for the next 12 months, 2.30% for the next 12 months and 3.60% for the remaining months that the notes are outstanding.  Ford Credit developed the delinquency trigger by considering the monthly greater than 60-day delinquency rate observed in its prior securitizations of retail installment sale contracts in this program from 2009 through 2019.  The delinquency rate is calculated as the aggregate principal balance of the receivables that are more than 60 days delinquent as a percentage of the pool balance as of the end of a month.  For this purpose, a “delinquent” receivable is a receivable with more than $49.99 of a scheduled payment past due, including receivables with bankrupt obligors but excluding receivables in repossession status or that have been charged off by the servicer according to its servicing procedures.

 

Annually, Ford Credit derives average monthly delinquency percentages from these prior securitization transactions and uses this data to construct a delinquency curve which it believes, given the consistency of its origination and servicing practices, represents a reasonable expected case delinquency curve for the receivables over economic cycles.  Ford Credit then applies a multiple of 3.0 to the average delinquency percentage observed at month 12, month 24 and month 36 and a multiple of 2.5 at month 48, and then rounds the resulting percentages up to the nearest multiple of 0.10.  By establishing these multiples consistent with, or within, the multiples of expected cumulative net losses that the Class C notes are expected to be able to withstand without a loss, Ford Credit believes the delinquency trigger is an appropriate threshold at the point when noteholders may benefit from an asset representations review.  The delinquency trigger starts at a lower level for the first year and increases in each of the following three years of the securitization transaction to reflect the historical shape of the delinquency curve in Ford Credit’s securitization transactions.  This provides a more conservative delinquency trigger level early in this securitization transaction’s life, when rising delinquencies may cause concern about whether the representations made about the receivables are true and when noteholders may benefit most from an asset representations review.

 

Ford Credit believes that the delinquency trigger is appropriate based on:

 

·                its experience with delinquency in its prior securitized pools of retail installment sale contracts, and in its portfolio of retail installment sale contracts,

 

·                its experience setting delinquency triggers in its retail installment sale contract securitization programs,

 

·                its observation that greater than 60 day delinquency rates and net cumulative losses in its retail installment sale contract securitization transactions increase over time and are correlated, and

 

·                its assessment of the amount of cumulative net losses that would likely result in a loss to noteholders of the most junior notes in its prior securitized pools.

 

For Ford Credit’s prior securitized pools from 2009 through 2019, the percentage of receivables that have been more than 60 days delinquent at month 12 have ranged from 0.12% to 0.37%, at month 24 have ranged from 0.23% to 0.71%, at month 36 have ranged from 0.38% to 1.19% and at month 48 have ranged from 0.85% to 1.97%.  The following chart shows the monthly percentages of receivables more than 60 days delinquent in Ford Credit’s prior securitized pools and the average monthly delinquency rate for these prior securitized pools from 2009 through 2019 compared to the delinquency trigger established for this securitization transaction.

Voting Trigger.  If the delinquency trigger occurs on the last day of a month, a noteholder may demand that the indenture trustee call a vote of all noteholders on whether to direct the asset representations reviewer to perform a review.  If noteholders of at least 5% of the principal amount of the notes demand a vote within 90 days after the filing of the Form 10-D reporting the occurrence of the delinquency trigger, the indenture trustee will submit the matter to a vote of all noteholders of record as of the most recent record date through DTC.  The vote will remain open until the 150th day after the filing of that Form 10-D.  Assuming a voting quorum of noteholders holding at least 5% of the principal amount of the notes is reached, if the noteholders of a majority of the principal amount of the notes that are voted vote to direct a review, the indenture trustee will notify the asset representations reviewer and the servicer to start the review.  If the requirements of the voting trigger are not met within these time periods, no review of the receivables will be performed for that occurrence of the delinquency trigger.

 

Asset Representations Review Process.  The review will be performed on each receivable that is more than 60 days delinquent at the end of the prior month, or the “review receivables.”  Within 60 days of the receipt of a review notice, the servicer will give the asset representations reviewer access to the receivable files and other information necessary for the review of all of the review receivables.  Upon receiving access to the review materials, the asset representations reviewer will start its review of the review receivables and complete its review within 60 days after receiving access to all review materials.  The review period may be extended by up to an additional 30 days if the asset representations reviewer detects missing review materials that are subsequently provided within the 60-day period or requires clarification of any review materials or testing procedures.  The review will consist of performing specific tests for each representation and each review receivable and determining whether each test was passed or failed.  If the servicer notifies the asset representations reviewer that a review receivable was paid in full or repurchased from the pool before the review report is delivered, the asset representations reviewer will terminate the tests of that receivable and the review of that review receivable will be considered complete.

 

The review tests were designed by Ford Credit to determine whether a receivable was not in compliance with the representations made about it in the transaction documents at the relevant time, which is usually at origination of the receivable or as of the cutoff date or closing date.  There may be

 

78


Table of Contents

 

multiple tests for each representation.  The review is not designed to determine why the obligor is delinquent or the creditworthiness of the obligor, either at the time of the review or at origination of the receivable.  The review is not designed to determine whether the receivable was serviced in compliance with the sale and servicing agreement after the cutoff date.  The review is not designed to establish cause, materiality or recourse for any failed test.  The review is not designed to determine whether Ford Credit’s origination, underwriting, purchasing and servicing policies and procedures are adequate, reasonable or prudent.

 

Review Report.  Within five days after the end of the review period, the asset representations reviewer will provide a report to the trust, the servicer and the indenture trustee on the test results for each review receivable and each representation, including any review receivable for which the tests were considered complete, and the related reason.  The asset representations reviewer is not responsible for determining whether noncompliance with any representation is a breach of the transaction documents or if any receivable is required to be repurchased.

 

On delivery of the review report, the asset representations reviewer will be entitled to receive a review fee of up to $230 for each receivable tested in the review.  On receipt of the report, the review fee will be paid to the asset representations reviewer according to the priority of payments as described under “Description of the Notes — Priority of Payments.  A summary of the report of the asset representations review will be included in the Form 10-D for the trust in the next month.

 

For more information about the asset representations reviewer, you should read “Transaction Parties — Asset Representations Reviewer.”

 

Dispute Resolution for Repurchase Requests

 

If a request is made for the repurchase of a receivable due to a breach of a representation made about the receivables, and the repurchase is not resolved within 180 days after Ford Credit or the depositor receives notice of the repurchase request, the requesting party, including a noteholder, will have the right to refer the matter, in its discretion, to either mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or binding third-party arbitration.  The requesting party must start the mediation or arbitration proceeding according to the rules of the mediation or arbitration organization within 90 days after the end of the 180-day period.  Ford Credit and the depositor must agree to participate in the selected resolution method.  Dispute resolution to resolve repurchase requests will be available regardless of whether the noteholders voted to direct an asset representations review or whether the delinquency trigger occurred.  However, if the receivable subject to a repurchase request was part of an asset representations review and the asset representations review report states that no tests were failed for the receivable, the repurchase request for the receivable will be deemed to be resolved.

 

A mediation or arbitration will be administered by The American Arbitration Association using its mediation or arbitration rules in effect at the time of the proceeding.  If The American Arbitration Association no longer exists, or if its rules would no longer permit mediation or arbitration of the dispute, the matter will be administered by another nationally recognized mediation or arbitration organization selected by Ford Credit, using its rules then in effect.  However, if any rules of the mediation or arbitration organization are inconsistent with the procedures for the mediation or arbitration stated in the transaction documents, the procedures in the transaction documents will control.  Any mediation or arbitration will be held in New York City at the offices of the mediator or arbitrator or at another location selected by Ford Credit or the depositor.  Any party or witness may appear by teleconference or video conference.

 

A single mediator or arbitrator will be selected by the mediation or arbitration organization from a list of neutrals maintained by it according to its mediation or arbitration rules then in effect.  The mediator or arbitrator must be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the state of New York and have at least 15 years of experience in commercial litigation and, if possible, consumer finance or asset-backed securitization matters.

 

79


Table of Contents

 

For a mediation, the proceeding will start within 15 days after selection of the mediator and conclude within 30 days after the start of the mediation.  Expenses of the mediation will be allocated among the parties as mutually agreed by the parties as part of the mediation.  If the parties fail to agree at the completion of the mediation, the requesting party may refer the repurchase request to arbitration.

 

For an arbitration, the arbitrator will have the authority to schedule, hear and determine any motions according to New York law, and will do so at the motion of any party.  Discovery will be completed within 30 days of selection of the arbitrator and will be limited for each party to two witness depositions not to exceed five hours, two interrogatories, one document request and one request for admissions.  However, the arbitrator may grant additional discovery on a showing of good cause that the additional discovery is reasonable and necessary.  Briefs will be limited to no more than ten pages each, and will be limited to initial statements of the case, motions and a pre-hearing brief.  The evidentiary hearing on the merits will start no later than 60 days after selection of the arbitrator and will proceed for no more than six consecutive business days with equal time allocated to each party for the presentation of evidence and cross examination.  The arbitrator may allow additional time for discovery and hearing on a showing of good cause or due to unavoidable delays.

 

The arbitrator will make its final determination in writing no later than 90 days after its selection.  The arbitrator will resolve the dispute according to the transaction documents, and may not modify or change the transaction documents in any way or award remedies not consistent with the transaction documents.  The arbitrator will not have the power to award punitive or consequential damages.  In its final determination, the arbitrator will determine and award the expenses of the arbitration to the parties in its reasonable discretion.  The final determination of the arbitrator will be final and non-appealable, except for actions to confirm or vacate the determination permitted under law, and may be entered and enforced in any court with jurisdiction over the parties and the matter.  By selecting arbitration, the requesting party is giving up its right to sue in court, including the right to a trial by jury.

 

Neither the depositor nor the sponsor will be required to produce personally identifiable customer information for purposes of any mediation or arbitration.  Each party will agree to keep the details of the repurchase request and the dispute resolution confidential.

 

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

 

The trust will issue the notes under an indenture between the trust and the indenture trustee.  The following description summarizes the main terms of the notes and the indenture but is not a complete description of the notes or the indenture.  For more details about the notes and the indenture, you should read the form of indenture that is included as an exhibit to the registration statement filed with the SEC that includes this prospectus.

 

Funds Available for Payments

 

Payments on the notes will be made from “available funds,” which for any payment date generally will be equal to collections on the receivables for the collection period, amounts paid to the trust by the depositor or Ford Credit to repurchase ineligible receivables or by the servicer to purchase servicer impaired receivables or receivables modified by the servicer for the collection period and amounts withdrawn from the reserve account.  For each payment date, the “collection period” is the month preceding the payment date.  For each collection period, “collections” include (a) all principal and interest collected on the receivables and applied by the servicer during the period, (b) all amounts received under physical damage, credit life and disability insurance on the financed vehicles or obligors, (c) rebates of cancelled service contracts, insurance and similar products, (d) proceeds from the liquidation of financed vehicles, or “liquidation proceeds,” including net auction proceeds from the sale of repossessed vehicles and other amounts received on defaulted accounts, and (e) net recoveries on charged off accounts.

 

This diagram shows the sources of available funds for each payment date.  Available funds, including amounts withdrawn from the reserve account to cover shortfalls, are the only funds that will be used to make payments to the noteholders on each payment date.

Table of Contents

 

 

Payments of Interest

 

Interest will accrue on the notes at the per annum interest rate for each class stated on the cover of this prospectus and will be due and payable to the noteholders on each payment date.  Interest on the Class A-1 notes will accrue on an “actual/360” basis from the prior payment date to the following payment date (or from the closing date, for the first period).  Interest on all other classes of notes will accrue on a “30/360” basis from the 15th day of the prior month to the 15th day of the current month (or from the closing date to December 15, 2020, for the first period).

 

All interest due but not paid on a payment date will be due on the next payment date, together with interest on the unpaid amount at the applicable interest rate.  Failure to pay interest that is due on the notes of the controlling class that continues for five days after the payment date will be an event of default.  Failure to pay interest that is due on any class of notes that is not part of the controlling class will not be an event of default.

 

The trust will pay interest on the notes on each payment date from available funds.  Interest will not be paid on any subordinated class of notes until interest due on more senior classes of notes is paid in full.

 

If available funds, including the amount withdrawn from the reserve account, are insufficient to pay all interest due on any class of notes on a payment date, each holder of that class of notes will receive its pro rata share of the funds that are available.  Any priority principal payments on more senior classes of notes will be made before the payment of interest due on the Class B or Class C notes.

 

For more details about the priority of payments made from available funds on each payment date, including priority payments of principal of senior classes of notes, you should read “— Priority of Payments” below.

 

If the notes are accelerated after an event of default, interest due on the subordinated classes of notes will not be paid until both interest on and principal of more senior classes of notes are paid in full.  For instance, interest due on the Class B notes will not be paid until interest on and principal of the Class A notes are paid in full.

 

For more details about the payment priorities after an acceleration of the notes, you should read “— Post-Acceleration Priority of Payments” below.

Payments of Principal

 

The trust will pay principal of the notes on each payment date in the amounts described below.  Principal will be paid sequentially to each class of notes in order of seniority, starting with the Class A-1 notes.  The trust will not pay principal of any class of notes until the principal amount of more senior classes are paid in full.  Ford Credit expects the principal amount of each class of notes to be repaid by that class’s final scheduled payment date.  If the principal amount of any class of notes is not paid in full by its final scheduled payment date, an event of default will occur and the principal amount of all classes of notes may be declared immediately due and payable.

 

The Class A-1 notes benefit from a “turbo” feature that will apply available funds remaining after payment of the senior fees and expenses of the trust, interest due on the notes and any required deposits in the reserve account, including the portion of the remaining available funds that is excess spread, to pay principal of the Class A-1 notes until paid in full.  After the Class A-1 notes have been paid in full, the trust will apply any remaining available funds to pay principal of the other classes of notes until the targeted overcollateralization amount is reached before any funds will be distributed to the holder of the residual interest.

 

After the Class A-1 notes have been paid in full and the targeted overcollateralization amount is reached, the trust will pay principal of the notes on each payment date generally in an amount equal to the excess of (a) the principal amount of the notes as of the close of business on the prior payment date over (b) the pool balance as of the last day of the prior month minus the targeted overcollateralization amount for the current payment date.  In other words, principal will be paid on the notes on each payment date in an amount equal to the decrease in the pool balance for the prior month less the decrease in the targeted overcollateralization amount for the current payment date, unless the actual amount of overcollateralization is greater than the targeted overcollateralization amount.  All available funds, including collections of interest on the receivables, will be used to make these payments.

 

Unless a priority principal payment is required, the trust will pay principal of the notes on each payment date only after all interest due on the notes is paid in full and any required deposit in the reserve account is made.  Priority principal payments are required when the adjusted pool balance is less than the principal amount of the Class A and Class B notes.  Priority principal payments are also required for the Class A and Class B notes if they are not paid in full before their final scheduled payment date.  These priority principal payments will be paid to more senior classes of notes before payments of interest on subordinated classes of notes.  The “priority principal payments” for a payment date are:

 

·                a “first priority principal payment” payable to the Class A noteholders, equal to the excess of the principal amount of the Class A notes on the prior payment date (after giving effect to payments on that date) over the adjusted pool balance, except that on and after the final scheduled payment date for each class of Class A notes, this amount will equal the principal amount of that class of Class A notes until paid in full, and

 

·                a “second priority principal payment” payable to the Class A and Class B noteholders, equal to (a) the excess of the principal amount of the Class A and Class B notes on the prior payment date (after giving effect to payments on that date) over the adjusted pool balance, minus (b) the amount of any first priority principal payment, except that on and after the final scheduled payment date for the Class B notes, this amount will equal the principal amount of the Class B notes until paid in full.

 

82


Table of Contents

 

The trust will pay the regular principal payment to the notes after all interest due on the notes and any required priority principal payments are paid in full.  The regular principal payment includes the “turbo” feature described above that pays the Class A-1 notes in full and then pays principal to the other classes of notes if required to reach the targeted overcollateralization amount before any funds are distributed to the holder of the residual interest.  The “regular principal payment” for a payment date is equal to:

 

·                the greater of (a) the principal amount of the Class A-1 notes on the prior payment date (after giving effect to payments on that date) and (b) the excess of the principal amount of the notes as of the close of business on the prior payment date over an amount equal to the pool balance as of the last day of the prior month minus the targeted overcollateralization amount for the current payment date, minus

 

·                the sum of any first priority principal payment and second priority principal payment made on that payment date,

 

except that on and after the final scheduled payment date for the Class C notes, the regular principal payment will equal the principal amount of the Class C notes until paid in full.

 

The amount of the regular principal payment will be limited by the remaining available funds after more senior payments are made.

On each payment date, the servicer will direct the indenture trustee to use available funds for the collection period to make payments and deposits in the order of priority listed below and, unless otherwise indicated below, pro rata based on the amounts due.  This priority will apply unless the notes are accelerated after an event of default:

 

(1)                    to the indenture trustee, the owner trustee and the asset representations reviewer, all amounts due, including indemnities, and to or at the direction of the trust, any expenses of the trust incurred under the transaction documents, in each case, to the extent not paid by the depositor or administrator, up to a maximum of $375,000 per year,

 

(2)                    to the servicer, all unpaid servicing fees,

 

(3)                    to the Class A noteholders, interest due on the Class A notes, pro rata, based on the principal amount of the Class A notes on the prior payment date (after giving effect to payments on that date),

 

(4)                    to the Class A noteholders, sequentially by class, in each case until paid in full, principal in an amount equal to the first priority principal payment, if any,

 

(5)                    to the Class B noteholders, interest due on the Class B notes,

 

(6)                    to the Class A and Class B noteholders, sequentially by class, in each case until paid in full, principal in an amount equal to the second priority principal payment, if any,

 

(7)                    to the Class C noteholders, interest due on the Class C notes,

 

(8)                    to the reserve account, the amount, if any, required to replenish the reserve account to its original balance, unless the payment date is on or after the final scheduled payment date for the Class C notes,

 

(9)                    to the noteholders, sequentially by class, in each case until paid in full, principal in an amount equal to the regular principal payment,

Table of Contents

 

(10)             to the indenture trustee, the owner trustee and the asset representations reviewer and to or at the direction of the trust, all fees, expenses and indemnities due but not paid under item (1), and

 

(11)             to the holder of the residual interest in the trust, all remaining available funds.

 

If available funds (other than reserve account amounts) on a payment date are insufficient to cover all amounts payable under items (1) through (7) (including to pay the Class A and Class B notes in full on their final scheduled payment dates), the servicer will direct the indenture trustee to withdraw the shortfall from the reserve account to the extent available and use it to pay items (1) through (7) (including to pay the Class A and Class B notes in full on their final scheduled payment dates).  Amounts in the reserve account will also be available to pay the Class C notes in full on their final scheduled payment date under item (9).

Post-Acceleration Priority of Payments

 

If the notes are accelerated after an event of default, on each payment date, the servicer will direct the indenture trustee to use amounts in the collection account for the collection period and amounts in the reserve account to make payments in the order of priority listed below and, unless otherwise indicated below, pro rata based on the amounts due:

 

(1)       to the indenture trustee, the owner trustee and the asset representations reviewer, all amounts due, including indemnities, and to or at the direction of the trust, any expenses of the trust incurred under the transaction documents,

 

(2)       to the servicer, all unpaid servicing fees,

 

(3)       to the Class A noteholders, interest due on the Class A notes, pro rata based on the principal amount of the Class A notes on the prior payment date (after giving effect to payments on that date),

 

(4)       to the Class A noteholders, sequentially by class, principal of the Class A notes until paid in full,

 

(5)       to the Class B noteholders, interest due on the Class B notes,

 

(6)       to the Class B noteholders, principal of the Class B notes until paid in full,

 

(7)       to the Class C noteholders, interest due on the Class C notes,

 

(8)       to the Class C noteholders, principal of the Class C notes until paid in full, and

 

(9)       to the holder of the residual interest in the trust, any remaining amounts.

 

For more details about events of default and your rights after an event of default, you should read “— Events of Default and Acceleration” below.

 

Events of Default and Acceleration

 

Each of the following will be an “event of default” under the indenture:

 

·      the trust fails to pay interest due on the notes of the controlling class within five days after any payment date,

 

·      the trust fails to pay the principal amount of any class of notes in full by its final scheduled payment date,

 

·      the trust fails to observe or perform a material covenant or agreement made in the indenture or a representation of the trust made in the indenture is later determined to have been incorrect in any material respect and, in either case, is not corrected for a period of 60 days after notice was given to the trust by the indenture trustee or to the trust and the indenture trustee by at least 25% of the controlling class, and

 

·      a bankruptcy or dissolution of the trust.

 

If a responsible person of the trust knows of an event that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would become an event of default of the type described in the third item above, it must notify the indenture trustee within five business days.  Except in limited circumstances, if a responsible person of the indenture trustee knows of an event that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would become an event of default, it must notify the noteholders within 90 days.

 

86


Table of Contents

 

The trust must notify the indenture trustee, the servicer and the rating agencies no more than five business days after a responsible person of the trust knows of an event of default.  If a responsible person of the indenture trustee knows of an event of default, it must notify all noteholders within five business days.

 

A majority of the controlling class may waive any event of default and its consequences except an event of default (a) in the payment of principal of or interest on any of the notes (other than an event of default relating to failure to pay principal due only because of the acceleration of the notes) or (b) relating to a covenant or term of the indenture that cannot be amended, supplemented or modified without the consent of all noteholders.

 

Acceleration of the Notes.  If an event of default occurs, other than because of a bankruptcy or dissolution of the trust, the indenture trustee or a majority of the controlling class may accelerate the notes and declare the notes to be immediately due and payable.  If an event of default occurs because of bankruptcy or dissolution of the trust, the notes will be accelerated automatically.

 

A majority of the controlling class may rescind a declaration of acceleration if:

 

·      notice of the rescission is given before a judgment for payment of the amount due is obtained by the indenture trustee,

 

·      the trust deposited with the indenture trustee an amount sufficient to pay the interest and principal due on the notes (other than amounts due only because of the acceleration of the notes) and all other outstanding fees and expenses of the trust, and

 

·      all events of default (other than the nonpayment of amounts due only because of the acceleration of the notes) are corrected or waived by a majority of the controlling class.

 

Remedies After Acceleration.  If the notes have been accelerated and the acceleration has not been rescinded, the indenture trustee may, and at the direction of a majority of the controlling class, will:

 

·      start a legal proceeding for the collection of the notes and enforce any judgment obtained,

 

·      start foreclosure proceedings on the receivables,

 

·      sell or liquidate any receivables at public or private sales,

 

·      exercise any remedies of a secured party under the UCC, and

 

·      take any other action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the indenture trustee and the noteholders.

 

However, the indenture trustee is only permitted to sell the receivables if the following conditions are met, depending on which event of default has occurred:

 

·      If an event of default occurs because of the late payment of interest on or principal of any note, the indenture trustee may sell the receivables without obtaining the consent of the noteholders or may elect to have the trust maintain possession of the receivables and apply collections as they are received, except that the indenture trustee will sell the receivables if directed by a majority of the controlling class.

 

·      If an event of default occurs because of the bankruptcy or dissolution of the trust, the indenture trustee may not sell the receivables unless:

 

    all of the noteholders of the controlling class consent to the sale,

 

87


Table of Contents

 

    the proceeds of the sale are expected to be sufficient to pay all amounts owed by the trust, including payments on the notes, or

 

    the indenture trustee determines that the assets of the trust would not be sufficient on an ongoing basis to pay all amounts owed by the trust, including payments on the notes as those payments would have become due if the obligations had not been accelerated, and the indenture trustee obtains the consent of 66-2/3% of the controlling class.

 

·      If an event of default occurs because of a breach of a representation or covenant of the trust, the indenture trustee may not sell the receivables unless:

 

    all of the noteholders consent to the sale, or

 

    the proceeds of the sale are expected to be sufficient to pay all amounts owed by the trust, including payments on the notes.

 

The indenture trustee will notify the noteholders at least 15 days before any sale of the receivables.  Any noteholder, the depositor and the servicer may submit a bid to purchase the receivables and may purchase the receivables at a sale proceeding.

 

Payments After Accelerations and Sales of Receivables.  After an acceleration of the notes and any sale of the receivables, any amounts collected by the indenture trustee will be paid according to the “post-acceleration” priority of payments described in “— Post-Acceleration Priority of Payments” above.

 

Standard of Care of the Indenture Trustee After an Event of Default.  If an event of default occurred and is continuing, the indenture trustee must exercise its rights and powers under the indenture using the same degree of care and skill that a prudent person would use under the circumstances in conducting his or her own affairs.  A majority of the controlling class generally will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the indenture trustee after an event of default and acceleration of the notes.

 

Limitation on Legal Proceedings.  No noteholder will have the right to start any legal proceeding for any remedy under the indenture described in “— Remedies After Acceleration” above unless:

 

·      the noteholder notified the indenture trustee of a continuing event of default,

 

·      at least 25% of the controlling class requested the indenture trustee to start the legal proceeding,

 

·      the requesting noteholders offered reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to the indenture trustee against any liabilities that the indenture trustee may incur in complying with the request,

 

·      the indenture trustee failed to start the legal proceeding within 60 days after its receipt of the notice, request and offer of indemnity, and

 

·      a majority of the controlling class has not given the indenture trustee any inconsistent direction during the 60-day period.

 

A noteholder, however, has the right to start a proceeding at any time to enforce its right to receive principal and interest due to it under its note.

 

The indenture trustee and the noteholders will agree not to start or pursue a bankruptcy proceeding against the trust.

Optional Redemption or “Clean Up Call” Option

 

The servicer will have a “clean up call” option to purchase the receivables from the trust on any payment date if the pool balance as of the end of the related collection period is 10% or less of the initial pool balance.  The servicer will notify the indenture trustee, the owner trustee and the rating agencies at least ten days before the payment date the option is exercised.  The servicer will exercise the option by depositing the purchase price for the receivables in the collection account on the business day before the payment date the option is exercised (or, with the satisfaction of the rating agency condition, on that payment date), and the trust will transfer the receivables to the servicer.  The indenture trustee will notify the noteholders of the redemption and provide instructions for surrender of the notes for final payment of principal of and interest on the notes.  The servicer may exercise its clean up call option only if the purchase price for the receivables plus the collections in the collection account in the final collection period will be sufficient to pay in full the notes and all fees and expenses of the trust.  The purchase price paid by the servicer for the receivables will be the outstanding principal balance of the receivables.  On the servicer’s exercise of its clean up call option, the notes will be redeemed and paid in full.  Ford Credit expects that the clean up call option will become available to the servicer when the Class A-4, Class B and Class C notes are still outstanding.

 

Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture

 

The indenture will not be discharged until:

 

·      the indenture trustee has received all notes for cancellation or, with some limitations, funds sufficient to pay all notes in full,

 

·      the trust has paid all other amounts payable by it under the transaction documents, and

 

·      the trust has delivered an officer’s certificate and a legal opinion each stating that all conditions to the satisfaction and discharge of the indenture have been satisfied.

 

Amendments to Indenture

 

The indenture trustee and the trust may amend the indenture without the consent of the noteholders for limited purposes, including to:

 

·      further protect the indenture trustee’s interest in the receivables and other trust assets under the lien of the indenture,

 

·      add to the covenants of the trust for the benefit of the noteholders,

 

·      transfer or pledge any trust assets to the indenture trustee,

 

·      correct any ambiguity or mistake or add a term that is not inconsistent with the other terms of the indenture, if it will not have a material adverse effect on the notes, and

 

·      modify, eliminate or add a term required by or necessary to qualify the indenture under the Trust Indenture Act.

 

The indenture trustee and the trust may amend the indenture to add, change or eliminate a term or modify the noteholders’ rights under the indenture:

 

·      without the consent of the noteholders if (a) the administrator certifies that the amendment will not have a material adverse effect on the notes and (b) the “rating agency condition” is satisfied, which generally means, for any proposed action, that each rating agency either (i) confirms that the proposed action will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of its then-current ratings of the

 

89


Table of Contents

 

notes or (ii) within ten business days of receiving notice of the proposed action, does not notify the depositor, the servicer, the owner trustee or the indenture trustee that the proposed action will result in a reduction or withdrawal of its then-current ratings of the notes, or

 

·      with the consent of a majority of the controlling class.

 

In each case, the indenture trustee must receive a legal opinion that, for federal income tax purposes, the amendment will not cause any note to be deemed sold or exchanged, cause the trust to be treated as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation or adversely affect the treatment of the notes as debt for federal income tax purposes.

 

The prior consent of all adversely affected noteholders will be required for any amendment that would:

 

·      change the terms for amending the indenture or voting or consent under the indenture,

 

·      change the principal amount of or interest rate on any note, the final scheduled payment date of any class of notes, the price at which notes may be redeemed after exercise of the clean up call option by the servicer or the percentage of the initial pool balance at which that option may be exercised or the priority of payments or how principal or interest payments are calculated or made on the notes,

 

·      change the right of noteholders to start legal proceedings to enforce the indenture,

 

·      change the percentage of the note balance or of the controlling class required for any action,

 

·      change the definitions of “controlling class” or “outstanding”,

 

·      change the calculation of the amount of a payment of principal of or interest on any note, or

 

·      permit the creation of a lien ranking prior or equal to, or impair, the lien of the indenture trustee on the trust assets.

 

Noteholder Communication

 

A noteholder may communicate with the indenture trustee and provide notices and make requests and demands and give directions to the indenture trustee as permitted by the transaction documents through the procedures of DTC or by notice to the indenture trustee.

 

Three or more noteholders may request a list of all noteholders of the trust maintained by the indenture trustee for the purpose of communicating with other noteholders about their rights under the indenture or under the notes.  Any request must be accompanied by a copy of the communication that the requesting noteholders propose to send.

 

A noteholder may also send a request to the trust or to the servicer, on behalf of the trust, stating that the noteholder is interested in communicating with other noteholders about the possible exercise of rights under the transaction documents.  The requesting noteholder must include in the request a description of the method by which other noteholders may contact the requesting noteholder.  The trust will promptly deliver any such request to the servicer.  On receipt of a communication request, the servicer will include in the Form 10-D filed in the next month the following information:

 

·      a statement that the trust received a communication request,

 

·      the date the request was received,

 

90


Table of Contents

 

·      the name of the requesting noteholder,

 

·      a statement that the requesting noteholder is interested in communicating with other noteholders about the possible exercise of rights under the transaction documents, and

 

·      a description of the method by which the other noteholders may contact the requesting noteholder.

 

Any expenses of the trust or the servicer relating to an investor communication, including any review of documents evidencing ownership of a note and the inclusion of the investor communication information in the Form 10-D, will be paid by the servicer.

 

In order to make a request or demand or to provide notice to the trust, the owner trustee, the indenture trustee, the depositor, the sponsor or the servicer under the transaction documents, a noteholder must either be a noteholder of record or must provide a written certification stating that it is a beneficial owner of a note, together with supporting documentation such as a trade confirmation, an account statement, a letter from a broker or dealer verifying ownership or another similar document evidencing ownership of a note.

 

Book-Entry Registration

 

The notes will be available only in book-entry form except in the limited circumstances described below.  All notes will be held in book-entry form by The Depository Trust Company, or “DTC,” in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC.  Noteholders’ interests in the notes will be represented through financial institutions acting on their behalf as direct and indirect participants in DTC.  Noteholders may hold their notes through DTC, Clearstream Banking Luxembourg S.A.  or Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., which will hold positions on behalf of their customers or participants through their depositories, which in turn will hold positions in accounts as DTC participants.  The notes will be traded as home market instruments in both the U.S. domestic and European markets.  Initial settlement and all secondary trades will settle in same-day funds.

 

Noteholders who hold their notes through DTC will follow the settlement practices for U.S. corporate debt obligations.  Noteholders who hold global notes through Clearstream or Euroclear accounts will follow the settlement procedures for conventional eurobonds, except that there will be no temporary global notes and no “lock-up” or restricted period.

 

Actions of noteholders under the indenture will be taken by DTC on instructions from its participants and all payments, notices, reports and statements to be delivered to noteholders will be delivered to DTC or its nominee as the registered holder of the book-entry notes for distribution to holders of book-entry notes according to DTC’s rules and procedures.

 

Prospective noteholders should review the rules and procedures of DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear for clearing, settlement, payments and tax withholding applicable to their purchase of the notes.  In particular, noteholders should note that DTC’s rules and procedures limit the ability of the trust and the indenture trustee to make post-payable adjustments for principal and interest payments after a period of time, which may be as short as 90 days.

 

Notes will be issued in physical form to noteholders only if:

 

·      the administrator determines that DTC is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as depository for the notes and the administrator or the depositor cannot appoint a qualified successor,

 

·      the administrator terminates the book-entry system through DTC, or

 

91


Table of Contents

 

·      after the occurrence of an event of default or a servicer termination event, a majority of the controlling class notify the indenture trustee and DTC to terminate the book-entry system through DTC (or a successor to DTC).

 

Payments of interest on and principal of definitive notes will be made by the indenture trustee on each payment date to registered holders of definitive notes as of the end of the prior month.  The payments will be made by check mailed to the address of the holder as it appears on the register maintained by the indenture trustee.  The final payment on a definitive note will be made only on presentation and surrender of the definitive note at the address stated in the notice of final payment to the noteholders.

 

Definitive notes will be transferable and exchangeable at the offices of the indenture trustee or a note registrar.  No service charge will be imposed for registration of transfer or exchange, but the indenture trustee may require payment of an amount sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge related to a transfer or exchange.

 

Computing Outstanding Principal Amount

 

The monthly investor report will include a note factor for each class of notes that can be used to compute the outstanding principal amount of that class of notes each month.  The note factor for each class of notes is a seven-digit decimal indicating the remaining outstanding principal amount of that class of notes as of the applicable payment date as a percentage of its original principal amount, after giving effect to payments to be made on the payment date.

 

The note factors for each class of notes will initially be 1.0000000 and will decline as the outstanding principal amount of the class declines.  For each note, the portion of the outstanding principal amount of that class of notes can be determined by multiplying the original denomination of that note by the note factor for that class of notes.

 

Notes Held by Transaction Parties

 

Notes held by the trust, the depositor, the servicer or any of their affiliates will not be included for purposes of determining whether a required percentage of any class of notes has taken any action under the indenture or any other transaction document.

 

CREDIT ENHANCEMENT

 

This securitization transaction is structured to provide credit enhancement that increases the likelihood that the trust will make timely payments of interest on and principal of the notes and decreases the likelihood that losses on the receivables will impair the trust’s ability to do so.  The amount of credit enhancement will be limited and it is not certain it will be sufficient in all circumstances.  The noteholders will have no recourse to the sponsor, the depositor, the servicer, the indenture trustee or the owner trustee as a source of payment.

 

Reserve Account

 

The servicer will establish the reserve account with the indenture trustee for the benefit of the noteholders.  On the closing date, the depositor will make a deposit in the reserve account from the net proceeds of the sale of the notes equal to $7,895,797.88, if the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes to be issued is $1,052,770,000, or equal to $9,868,548.85, if the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes to be issued is $1,315,800,000, which, in each case, is 0.75% of the initial adjusted pool balance.

 

If, on a payment date, collections on the receivables for the collection period and any amounts paid to the trust by Ford Credit, the depositor or the servicer to repurchase or purchase any receivables are insufficient to pay the senior fees and expenses of the trust, interest and any priority principal payments on the notes, the servicer will direct the indenture trustee to use amounts in the reserve account to cover

 

92


Table of Contents

 

the shortfall.  Similarly, if any class of notes would not be paid in full on its final scheduled payment date from collections on the receivables for the prior month, any amounts paid to the trust by Ford Credit, the depositor or the servicer to repurchase or purchase receivables, the servicer will direct the indenture trustee to use amounts in the reserve account to pay those notes in full.  Ford Credit does not expect that amounts in the reserve account will be required for this purpose.

 

If amounts in the reserve account are used on a payment date, other than the final scheduled payment date for the Class C notes, the trust will deposit available funds into the reserve account on future payment dates after making more senior payments until the reserve account is replenished to its initial level.

 

On payment of the notes in full, the trust will distribute any amounts remaining in the reserve account to the holder of the residual interest.  Net investment earnings on amounts in the reserve account will be paid to the servicer on each payment date, as described in “Servicing — Servicing Fees,” and will not be available to the trust.

 

For more information about how amounts in the reserve account may be invested, you should read “Servicing — Trust Bank Accounts.”

 

Subordination

 

This securitization transaction is structured so that the trust will pay interest on all classes of the Class A notes and then will pay interest sequentially on the remaining classes of notes in order of seniority.

 

The trust will pay principal sequentially, starting with the Class A-1 notes, and will not pay principal of any class of notes until the principal amount of more senior classes of notes are paid in full.  In addition, if a priority principal payment is required on a payment date, the trust will pay the priority principal payment to the most senior class of notes outstanding before the payment of interest on any subordinated class of notes on that payment date.

 

If the notes are accelerated after an event of default, the priority of payments will change and the trust will pay interest and principal sequentially by class, starting with the Class A notes (paying interest on the Class A notes, pro rata, and principal of the Class A notes sequentially, starting with the Class A-1 notes), and will not pay interest on or principal of the Class B and Class C notes until all more senior classes of notes are paid in full.  These subordination features provide credit enhancement to more senior classes of notes, with the Class A notes benefiting the most.

 

Overcollateralization

 

Overcollateralization is the amount by which the pool balance exceeds the principal amount of the notes.  Overcollateralization means there will be excess receivables generating collections that will be available to offset losses on the receivables and supplement interest collections due to low-APR receivables.  The initial amount of overcollateralization, if the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes to be issued is $1,052,770,000, will be $90,872,680.10, or 7.95% of the initial pool balance, or, if the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes to be issued is $1,315,800,000, will be $113,778,316.37, or 7.96% of the initial pool balance.  Overcollateralization may also be expressed as a percentage of the adjusted pool balance, to identify the overcollateralization exclusive of the yield supplement overcollateralization amount.  The adjusted pool balance as of the closing date will be approximately equal to the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes.  Therefore, on an adjusted pool balance basis, the initial amount of overcollateralization for the notes will be approximately zero.  Overcollateralization expressed as a percentage of initial pool balance will be different for each securitization transaction in this program as a result of changes in interest rates on the notes, the APRs of the receivables in the securitized pool and the stated rate used to determine the yield supplement overcollateralization amount for a particular transaction.  Initial overcollateralization expressed as a

percentage of initial adjusted pool balance, however, is expected to stay the same for all securitization transactions in this program.

 

The following table shows the notes as a percentage of the initial pool balance and as a percentage of the initial adjusted pool balance, if the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes to be issued is $1,052,770,000.  The percentages may not sum due to rounding.

This securitization transaction is structured to use all available funds remaining after payments of the senior fees and expenses of the trust, interest due on the notes, any priority principal payments and any required deposits in the reserve account, including the portion of the remaining available funds that is excess spread, to pay principal of the notes until the targeted overcollateralization amount is reached.

 

The “targeted overcollateralization amount” for each payment date will be equal to the sum of:

 

(1)       the yield supplement overcollateralization amount, plus

 

(2)       2.00% of the initial adjusted pool balance, plus

 

(3)       the excess, if any, of (a) 1.50% of the current pool balance over (b) 0.75% of the initial adjusted pool balance (the amount required to be deposited in the reserve account).

 

Therefore, the targeted overcollateralization amount will generally adjust each month based on (a) decreases in the pool balance due to actual payments (including prepayments) of principal made on the receivables and losses on charged off receivables, and (b) the scheduled decrease in the yield supplement overcollateralization amount for that month.

 

To increase the amount of overcollateralization on a payment date and reach the targeted overcollateralization amount, the trust must pay principal of the notes in an amount greater than the decline in the adjusted pool balance for the prior month.  The use of excess spread to make regular principal payments and priority principal payments is expected to increase overcollateralization as a percentage of each class’s principal amount.  When the actual amount of overcollateralization is less than the targeted overcollateralization amount, principal will be paid to the noteholders from available funds until the targeted overcollateralization amount is reached.

 

94

When the pool balance has decreased to the point where 1.50% of the current pool balance is equal to or less than 0.75% of the initial adjusted pool balance, the targeted overcollateralization amount will be equal to the yield supplement overcollateralization amount for that payment date plus 2.00% of the initial adjusted pool balance.  Therefore, after that point, the principal payable on the notes on the payment date will be equal to the decrease in the pool balance for the prior month less the scheduled decrease in the yield supplement overcollateralization amount for the payment date, unless the actual amount of overcollateralization is greater than the targeted overcollateralization amount.

 

Because the pool of receivables includes a substantial number of low-APR receivables, the pool could generate less collections of interest than the sum of the senior fees and expenses of the trust, interest due on the notes and any required deposits in the reserve account if the low-APR receivables are not adequately offset by high-APR receivables in the pool.  The yield supplement overcollateralization amount for each payment date approximates the present value of the amount by which future payments on receivables with APRs below a stated rate are less than future payments would be on those receivables if their APRs were equal to the stated rate.  The stated rate is set by the depositor at a level that will result in an amount of excess spread sufficient to obtain the required ratings on the notes, and will at least equal the highest interest rate on the notes plus the servicing fee.  The yield supplement overcollateralization amount is included in the targeted overcollateralization amount for each payment date, which has the effect of recharacterizing a portion of the principal collections on the pool of receivables as interest to increase excess spread.

 

The “yield supplement overcollateralization amount” for the closing date and a payment date is equal to the sum of the excess, if any, for each receivable of (a) the present value of all future payments due on the receivable discounted at the APR of the receivable over (b) the present value of all future payments due on the receivable discounted at a stated rate of 5.20%.  For purposes of this calculation, future payments on each receivable are assumed to be equal monthly payments made over the remaining scheduled term regardless of any prepayments before the cutoff date and without any delays, defaults or prepayments.  The yield supplement overcollateralization amount is calculated as of the cutoff date for all future payment dates and will not be recalculated to give effect to delays, defaults or prepayments.  This means that, if a low-APR receivable prepays, the related portion of the yield supplement overcollateralization amount will continue to provide credit enhancement for the notes and yield enhancement for other low-APR receivables as a component of the targeted overcollateralization amount.

 

The yield supplement overcollateralization amount for the closing date and each payment date, if the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes to be issued is $1,052,770,000 will be:

Excess Spread

 

For a payment date, excess spread is equal to the excess of (a) the sum of (i) the interest collections for the collection period and (ii) the principal collections equal to the decline in the yield supplement overcollateralization amount from the prior payment date (or closing date, as applicable), over (b) the sum of the senior fees and expenses of the trust, the interest on the notes and any required deposits in the reserve account.  Any excess spread will be applied on each payment date, as a component of available funds, to pay principal of the Class A-1 notes until paid in full and then to pay principal of the most senior class of notes to the extent necessary to reach the targeted overcollateralization amount.  In general, having excess spread available to pay principal of the notes provides a source of funds to offset losses on the receivables.

 

MATURITY AND PREPAYMENT CONSIDERATIONS

 

General

 

The final scheduled payment date for each class of notes is listed on the cover of this prospectus.  Ford Credit determined these dates:

 

·                  for the Class A-1 notes, by selecting the latest payment date falling within the 397-day period after the date of pricing of those notes,

 

·                  for the Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4 and Class B notes, by selecting the first payment date that is three months or, for the Class A-4 notes, six months after the payment date on which those classes of notes would be paid in full assuming all receivables pay as scheduled with no delays, defaults or prepayments, and

 

·                  for the Class C notes, by selecting the first payment date that is six months after the scheduled maturity date of the latest maturing receivable.

 

Ford Credit expects that the final payment of each class of notes will occur before its final scheduled payment date.  The final payment of any class of notes could occur significantly earlier (or could occur later) than that class’s final scheduled payment date because the rate of principal payments on each class of notes depends primarily on the rate of payment (including prepayments) by the obligors on the receivables.

 

The weighted average life of each note is uncertain because it generally will be determined by the rate at which the principal balances of the receivables are paid.  An increase in prepayments on the receivables will decrease the weighted average life of the notes.  “Prepayments” on the receivables will occur in the following circumstances:

 

·                  Prepayments on receivables — obligors may prepay their retail installment sale contracts in full or in part at any time without penalty,

 

97


Table of Contents

 

·                  Rebates for cancelled items — rebates on cancelled service contracts, insurance and similar products included in the amount financed of the receivable may be received,

 

·                  Defaults — liquidation proceeds on defaulted receivables may be received,

 

·                  Insurance proceeds — proceeds from claims on any insurance policies covering the financed vehicles or the obligors may be received,

 

·                  Repurchases of receivables by Ford Credit and the depositor — Ford Credit and the depositor may be required to repurchase ineligible receivables from the trust for breaches of representations as described in “Receivables — Obligation to Repurchase Receivables,”

 

·                  Purchases of receivables by the servicer — the servicer may be required to purchase receivables if the servicer fails to maintain the security interest of the trust in the financed vehicles or impairs the rights of the trust or the noteholders in the receivables or if the servicer makes modifications to the receivables as described in “Servicing — Servicer Modifications and Obligation to Purchase Receivables,” and

 

·                  Clean up call option — the servicer will have the option to purchase the receivables from the trust on any payment date if the pool balance as of the end of the related collection period is 10% or less of the initial pool balance.

 

In Ford Credit’s experience, prepayments on its retail installment sale contracts occur primarily when obligors decide to purchase new vehicles, obligors finance with Ford Credit to obtain specific Ford marketing incentives that require Ford Credit financing and pay off their accounts within the first few months of the contract term, defaulted contracts are liquidated or insurance proceeds are received after the financed vehicle is determined to be a total loss.  Unlike some other asset classes, such as residential mortgage loans, retail installment sale contracts for the purchase of cars, light trucks and utility vehicles do not experience significant voluntary prepayments as interest rates decline.  The short-term nature and smaller principal amount of Ford Credit’s retail installment sale contracts makes the benefit of refinancing smaller.  In addition, because a substantial number of receivables in the securitization transactions in this program are subvened-APR contracts, the situations in which an obligor could take advantage of lower rates by refinancing are limited.

 

Any reinvestment risk resulting from a faster or slower rate of prepayment of receivables will be borne entirely by the noteholders.  For more information about reinvestment risk, you should read “Risk Factors — The timing of principal payments on your notes is uncertain.”

 

Weighted Average Life

 

Prepayments on the receivables can be measured against a prepayment standard or model.  This securitization transaction uses the Absolute Prepayment Model commonly referred to as “ABS,” which uses an assumed rate of prepayment each month relative to the original number of receivables in a pool.  ABS assumes that all receivables are the same size and maturity and amortize at the same rate and that in each month each receivable will be paid as scheduled or be prepaid in full.  For example, in a pool of receivables originally containing 10,000 receivables, a 1% ABS rate means that 100 receivables prepay in full each month.  ABS is not a historical description of prepayment experience or a prediction of the anticipated rate of prepayment of any pool of assets.  Ford Credit intends to establish the interest rates for the notes based on their weighted average lives determined by assuming the receivables will prepay at a 1.3% ABS rate.

 

The ABS tables below were prepared by (a) classifying the pool of receivables that will be sold to the trust into sub-pools based on APR, original term and remaining term, (b) determining a level monthly payment for each of the sub-pools that fully amortizes the pool by the end of its remaining term to maturity, assuming that each monthly payment is made on the last day of each month and each month has 30 days and (c) making the following assumptions:

·                  The aggregate initial principal amount of notes to be issued is $1,052,770,000 or $1,315,800,000 as applicable,

 

·                  each sub-pool prepays at the stated constant monthly ABS rate, and pays as scheduled with no delays, defaults or repurchases on the receivables,

 

·                  interest accrues on the notes at the following rates:

The results shown in the ABS tables should approximate the results that would be obtained if the analysis had been based on similar assumptions using the actual pool of receivables that will be sold to the trust, rather than on sub-pools.  The actual characteristics and performance of the receivables will differ from the assumptions used in constructing the ABS tables.  The ABS tables only give a general sense of how each class of notes may amortize at different assumed ABS rates with other assumptions held constant.  It is unlikely that the receivables will prepay at a constant ABS rate until maturity or that all of the receivables will prepay at the same ABS rate.  The diversity of the receivables could produce slower or faster prepayment rates for any payment date, including for payment dates early in the transaction, which would result in principal payments occurring earlier or later than indicated in the ABS tables.  Any difference between those assumptions and the actual characteristics and performance of the receivables, or actual prepayment experience, will affect the weighted average life and period during which principal is paid on each class of notes.

 

For a description of factors which may affect the rate of principal payments on the notes, you should read “Risk Factors — The timing of principal payments on your notes is uncertain.”

_______________

(1)                 The numbers in this table, other than the weighted average life to maturity, were calculated based on the assumption that the servicer will exercise its clean up call option on the first payment date that the option is available.

(2)                 The weighted average life of a note is calculated by (a) multiplying the amount of each principal payment on a note by the number of years from the date of the issuance of the note to the related payment date, (b) adding the results and (c) dividing the sum by the initial principal amount of the note.

 

The ABS tables were prepared based on the assumptions described above, including the assumptions regarding the characteristics and performance of the receivables that will differ from the actual characteristics and performance of the receivables.  You should be sure you understand these assumptions when reading the ABS tables.

_______________

(1)                 The numbers in this table, other than the weighted average life to maturity, were calculated based on the assumption that the servicer will exercise its clean up call option on the first payment date that the option is available.

(2)                 The weighted average life of a note is calculated by (a) multiplying the amount of each principal payment on a note by the number of years from the date of the issuance of the note to the related payment date, (b) adding the results and (c) dividing the sum by the initial principal amount of the note.

 

The ABS tables were prepared based on the assumptions described above, including the assumptions regarding the characteristics and performance of the receivables that will differ from the actual characteristics and performance of the receivables.  You should be sure you understand these assumptions when reading the ABS tables.

_______________

(1)                 The numbers in this table, other than the weighted average life to maturity, were calculated based on the assumption that the servicer will exercise its clean up call option on the first payment date that the option is available.

(2)                 The weighted average life of a note is calculated by (a) multiplying the amount of each principal payment on a note by the number of years from the date of the issuance of the note to the related payment date, (b) adding the results and (c) dividing the sum by the initial principal amount of the note.

 

The ABS tables were prepared based on the assumptions described above, including the assumptions regarding the characteristics and performance of the receivables that will differ from the actual characteristics and performance of the receivables.  You should be sure you understand these assumptions when reading the ABS tables.

_______________

 

(1)                 The numbers in this table, other than the weighted average life to maturity, were calculated based on the assumption that the servicer will exercise its clean up call option on the first payment date that the option is available.

(2)                 The weighted average life of a note is calculated by (a) multiplying the amount of each principal payment on a note by the number of years from the date of the issuance of the note to the related payment date, (b) adding the results and (c) dividing the sum by the initial principal amount of the note.

 

The ABS tables were prepared based on the assumptions described above, including the assumptions regarding the characteristics and performance of the receivables that will differ from the actual characteristics and performance of the receivables.  You should be sure you understand these assumptions when reading the ABS tables.

_______________

 

(1)                 The numbers in this table, other than the weighted average life to maturity, were calculated based on the assumption that the servicer will exercise its clean up call option on the first payment date that the option is available.

(2)                 The weighted average life of a note is calculated by (a) multiplying the amount of each principal payment on a note by the number of years from the date of the issuance of the note to the related payment date, (b) adding the results and (c) dividing the sum by the initial principal amount of the note.

 

The ABS tables were prepared based on the assumptions described above, including the assumptions regarding the characteristics and performance of the receivables that will differ from the actual characteristics and performance of the receivables.  You should be sure you understand these assumptions when reading the ABS tables.

_______________

 

(1)                 The numbers in this table, other than the weighted average life to maturity, were calculated based on the assumption that the servicer will exercise its clean up call option on the first payment date that the option is available.

(2)                 The weighted average life of a note is calculated by (a) multiplying the amount of each principal payment on a note by the number of years from the date of the issuance of the note to the related payment date, (b) adding the results and (c) dividing the sum by the initial principal amount of the note.

 

The ABS tables were prepared based on the assumptions described above, including the assumptions regarding the characteristics and performance of the receivables that will differ from the actual characteristics and performance of the receivables.  You should be sure you understand these assumptions when reading the ABS tables.

CREDIT RISK RETENTION

 

The risk retention regulations in Regulation RR of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 require the sponsor, either directly or through its majority-owned affiliates, to retain an economic interest in the credit risk of the receivables.  The depositor is a wholly-owned affiliate of Ford Credit and will retain the required economic interest in the credit risk of the receivables to satisfy the sponsor’s requirements under Regulation RR.

 

The depositor’s retention of the residual interest satisfies the requirements for an “eligible horizontal residual interest” under Regulation RR.  The fair value of the residual interest will represent at least 5% of the sum of the fair value of the notes and the residual interest on the closing date.  The depositor, Ford Credit, or another majority-owned affiliate of Ford Credit is required to retain the residual interest until the latest of two years after the closing date, the date the pool balance is one-third or less of the initial pool balance, or the date the principal amount of the notes is one-third or less of the original principal amount.  None of Ford Credit, the depositor or any of their affiliates may sell, transfer or hedge the residual interest during this period other than as permitted by Regulation RR.  The depositor intends to retain the residual interest for the life of this securitization transaction.

 

In general, the residual interest represents the rights to the overcollateralization and amounts in the reserve account and excess spread not needed to make required payments on the notes, offset losses on the receivables, or pay expenses and fees of the trust.  Because the residual interest is subordinated to each class of notes and is only entitled to amounts not needed on a payment date to make payments on the notes or to make other required payments or deposits according to the priority of payments described in “Description of the Notes — Priority of Payments” and “Description of the Notes — Post-Acceleration Priority of Payments,” the residual interest offsets all losses on the receivables by reduction of, first, the excess spread, second, the overcollateralization and, third, the amounts in the reserve account, before any losses are incurred by the notes.  For a description of the credit enhancement available for the notes, including the excess spread and overcollateralization, you should read “Credit Enhancement.”

 

The fair value of the notes and the residual interest, if the aggregate initial principal amount of the notes to be issued is $1,052,770,000, is summarized below.  The totals in the table may not sum due to rounding:

The sponsor determined the fair value of the notes and the residual interest using a fair value measurement framework under generally accepted accounting principles.  In measuring fair value, the use of observable and unobservable inputs and their significance in measuring fair value are reflected in the fair value hierarchy assessment, with Level 1 inputs favored over Level 2 and Level 3 inputs, and Level 2 inputs favored over Level 3 inputs.

 

·                  Level 1 – inputs include quoted prices for identical instruments and are the most observable,

 

·                  Level 2 – inputs include quoted prices for similar instruments and observable inputs such as interest rates and yield curves, and

 

·                  Level 3 – inputs include data not observable in the market and reflect management judgment about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the instrument.

 

The fair value of the notes is categorized within Level 2 of the hierarchy, reflecting the use of inputs derived from prices for similar instruments.  The fair value of the residual interest is categorized within Level 3 of the hierarchy as inputs to the fair value calculation are generally not observable.

 

The fair value of the notes is assumed to be equal to the initial principal amount, or par.  This reflects the expectation that the final interest rates of the notes will be consistent with the interest rate assumptions below:

 

Class

 

Interest Rate

Class A-1

 

0.13% - 0.23%

Class A-2

 

0.23% - 0.43%

Class A-3

 

0.42% - 0.62%

Class A-4

 

0.56% - 0.76%

Class B

 

0.78% - 1.08%

Class C

 

1.22% - 1.52%

 

These interest rates are estimated based on recent pricing of notes issued in similar securitization transactions and market-based expectations for interest rates and credit risk applicable to the notes.

 

To calculate the fair value of the residual interest, Ford Credit used an internal valuation model.  This model projects future interest and principal payments of the pool of receivables, the interest and principal payments on each class of notes, transaction fees and expenses and the servicing fee.  The model also assumes that the servicer will exercise its clean up call option on the first payment date that the option is available and that the purchase price paid for the receivables will be equal to the outstanding principal balance of the receivables, which is the minimum amount the servicer may pay for the receivables.  The resulting cash flows to the residual interest are discounted to present value based on a discount rate that reflects the credit exposure to these cash flows.  In completing these calculations, Ford Credit made the following assumptions:

 

·                  interest accrues on the notes at the rates described above,

 

·                  principal and interest cash flows for the receivables are calculated using the sub-pools and related assumptions as described in “Maturity and Prepayment Considerations – Weighted Average Life,”

 

·                  receivables prepay at a 1.3% ABS rate as described in “Maturity and Prepayment Considerations—Weighted Average Life,”

 

·                  cumulative net losses on the receivables, as a percentage of the initial pool balance, occur each month at the following rates:

·                  residual interest cash flows are discounted at 11.0%.

 

Ford Credit developed these inputs and assumptions by considering the following factors:

 

·                  ABS rate — estimated considering the composition of the receivables and the performance of its prior securitized pools included in Annex A,

 

·                  Cumulative net loss rate — estimated using assumptions for both the magnitude of lifetime cumulative net losses and the shape of the cumulative net loss curve.  The lifetime cumulative net loss assumption and the shape of the cumulative net loss curve were developed considering the composition of the receivables, the 10-year historical average performance of its prior securitized pools including those in Annex A, trends in used vehicle values, economic conditions and the cumulative net loss assumptions of the hired NRSROs.  Default and recovery rate estimates are included in the cumulative net loss assumption, and

 

·                  Discount rate applicable to the residual cash flows — estimated to reflect the credit exposure to the residual cash flows.  Due to the lack of an actively traded market in residual interests, the discount rate was derived using qualitative factors that consider the equity-like component of the first-loss exposure.

 

Ford Credit believes that the inputs and assumptions described above include the inputs and assumptions that could have a significant impact on the fair value calculation or a prospective noteholder’s ability to evaluate the fair value calculation.  The fair value of the notes and the residual interest were calculated based on the assumptions described above, including the assumptions regarding the characteristics and performance of the receivables that will differ from the actual characteristics and performance of the receivables.  You should be sure you understand these assumptions when considering the fair value calculation.

 

Ford Credit will recalculate the fair value of the notes and the residual interest after the closing date to reflect the issuance of the notes and any changes in the methodology or inputs and assumptions described above.  The fair value of the residual interest as a dollar amount and as a percentage of the sum of the fair value of the notes and the residual interest will be included in the first investor report, together with a description of any changes in the methodology or inputs and assumptions used to calculate the fair value.

The servicer will service the receivables and this securitization transaction under a sale and servicing agreement among the trust, the depositor and the servicer.  The following description summarizes the main terms of the sale and servicing agreement but is not a complete description of the agreement.  For more details about the sale and servicing agreement, you should read the form of sale and servicing agreement that is included as an exhibit to the registration statement filed with the SEC that includes this prospectus.

 

Servicing Obligations

 

Under the sale and servicing agreement, the servicer’s main obligations will be to:

 

·                collect and apply all payments made on the receivables and any other amounts received related to the receivables,

 

·                investigate delinquencies,

 

·                send invoices and respond to inquiries of obligors,

 

·                process requests for extensions, modifications and adjustments,

 

·                administer payoffs, defaults and delinquencies,

 

·                repossess and then sell financed vehicles,

 

·                maintain accurate and complete accounts and computer systems for the servicing of the receivables,

 

·                prepare and provide monthly investor reports and instructions to the indenture trustee, and

 

·                provide the custodian with updated records for the receivable files.

 

The servicer is not required or permitted to make advances for shortfalls in scheduled payments on receivables, collections or other cash flows on the receivables.

 

The servicer may delegate or perform its servicing obligations to or through others.  No delegation or subcontracting will relieve the servicer of its servicing obligations.  The servicer will be responsible for paying the fees of any delegates or subcontractors.

 

Servicing Fees

 

The servicer will earn a servicing fee each month equal to 1/12 of 1% of the pool balance on the first day of the month.  In addition, the servicer will retain any late fees, extension fees and other administrative fees received from obligors and receive net investment earnings on funds in the trust bank accounts.  The servicer may be reimbursed for fees and expenses paid to third parties for repossession and disposition of financed vehicles and external costs of collection activities on charged off accounts.  The servicer may net these fees and expenses from collections deposited in the collection account.

Servicer Modifications and Obligation to Purchase Receivables

 

The servicer will follow its policies and procedures in servicing the receivables.  As part of its normal collection efforts, the servicer may waive or modify the terms of a receivable, including granting a payment extension and rewriting, rescheduling or amending any contract or waiving late fees, extension fees or other administrative fees.  The servicer will purchase a receivable from the trust if the servicer makes certain modifications, including if it gives a payment extension resulting in the final payment date of the receivable being later than the final scheduled payment date of the most junior class of notes issued by the trust.  The servicer will also purchase a receivable if it changes the then-current principal balance or the APR of the receivable or rewrites or reschedules the contract to change the number of originally scheduled due dates of the receivable or the payment amount.  However, the servicer will not be required to purchase any modified receivable if the modification was required by law or court order, including by a bankruptcy court, although it may choose to do so.  Ford Credit’s servicing systems identify these types of modifications and will automatically purchase the modified receivable on the payment date after the month in which the modification is made.  On payment of the purchase price, the purchase will be effective at the end of the month before the month in which the modification is made.  The purchase price will be the principal balance of the receivable plus 30 days of interest at its APR before the modification, which will be deposited by the servicer in the collection account.  The purchase of a receivable by the servicer due to a modification is effectively the same as a prepayment of the receivable in full, and will result in payment of principal of the notes earlier than would have been the case if the receivable was not repurchased.  For modifications or waivers that do not result in the purchase of a receivable, Ford Credit does not expect that these changes or waivers will materially affect the cash flows on the receivables.

 

For more information about the servicer’s policies and procedures for servicing the receivables, including extensions and rewrites, you should read “Sponsor and Servicer — Servicing and Collections.”

 

The servicer must maintain perfection of the trust’s security interest in each receivable and Ford Credit’s security interest in the related financed vehicle until immediately before the time the receivable is paid in full or repurchased.  For a charged off receivable, the servicer may release the security interest in a sale of charged-off receivables as permitted by the servicer’s policies and procedures.  If the servicer fails to maintain perfection of the trust’s security interest in the financed vehicle or impairs the rights of the trust or the noteholders in the receivable (other than according to its policies and procedures), the servicer must purchase the receivable from the trust on the payment date after the month that a responsible person of the servicer obtained actual knowledge or was notified of the impairment or, at the servicer’s option, on the following payment date, unless it corrects the failure or impairment before that date.  The purchase price will generally be the principal balance of the receivable plus 30 days of interest at its APR, which will be deposited by the servicer in the collection account.  On payment of the purchase price, the purchase will be effective as of the last day of the second month before the payment date.

 

For more information about the servicer’s policies and procedures for releasing the security interest in a receivable, you should read “Sponsor and Servicer — Servicing and Collections — Repossession and Charge Off.”

 

The servicer may offer extensions to obligors located in states and counties subject to a major disaster declaration by the Federal Emergency Management Agency prior to the closing date, and the servicer will repurchase the receivables of the obligors that accept those offered extensions.  In the servicer’s experience, the acceptance rate for these extension offers is generally less than 5%.

 

Trust Bank Accounts

 

The servicer will establish a collection account for the trust and will deposit all collections on the receivables, the repurchase price for any receivables repurchased by the sponsor or the depositor and the purchase price for any receivables purchased by the servicer in the collection account.  The servicer will also establish the reserve account and, together with the collection account, the “trust bank accounts.”  All trust bank accounts will be pledged to the indenture trustee to secure the notes.

 

111


Table of Contents

 

Funds in the trust bank accounts will be invested in highly rated short-term investments that mature or are made available on or before the next payment date.  Net investment earnings on funds in the trust bank accounts will be paid to the servicer each month.  The servicer will direct the investments unless the indenture trustee instructs the bank holding the account otherwise after an event of default.  The trust may invest the funds in the trust bank accounts in obligations issued by the underwriters or their affiliates.

 

The servicer will have no access to the funds in the trust bank accounts.  Only the indenture trustee may withdraw funds from these accounts to make payments, including payments to the noteholders or to pay net investment earnings on the trust bank accounts to the servicer.  The indenture trustee will make payments from the trust bank accounts to the noteholders and others based on information provided by the servicer.

 

Deposit of Collections

 

Ford Credit will deposit all collections in the collection account within two business days of applying them to the obligors’ accounts, except that net recoveries on charged off accounts will be deposited on a monthly basis.  However, if Ford Credit’s short-term unsecured debt is rated equal to or higher than “P-1” by Moody’s and “A-1” by S&P, and if no servicer termination event has occurred, Ford Credit may deposit all collections for the collection period in the collection account on the business day before each payment date or, with satisfaction of the rating agency condition, on each payment date.  Until deposited in the collection account, collections may be used by the servicer for its own benefit and will not be segregated from its own funds.

 

For administrative convenience, the servicer may deposit collections in the collection account each month net of the servicing fee payable to the servicer for the month, but must account for all transactions individually.  If amounts are deposited in error, they will be returned to the servicer or netted from later deposits.

 

Custodial Obligations of Ford Credit

 

Ford Credit will act as custodian for the trust and the indenture trustee and will maintain a receivable file for each receivable.  A receivable file will include originals or copies of the retail installment sale contract, credit application, certificate of title and other documents relating to the receivable, the obligor and the financed vehicle.  Each receivable file will be maintained separately, but will not be segregated from other similar receivable files or stamped or marked to reflect the sale to the trust so long as Ford Credit is servicing the receivables.  The receivable files are held by Ford Credit, directly or through third-party vendors, as described in “Sponsor and Servicer — Origination, Underwriting and Purchasing — Vehicle Title” and “Sponsor and Servicer — Origination, Underwriting and Purchasing — Types of Contracts and Vehicle Classification.”

 

Limitations on Liability

 

The servicer will not be liable to the trust or the noteholders for any action or omission or for any error in judgment, except for its own willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its obligations.  The servicer will not be obligated to start, pursue or participate in any legal proceeding that is not incidental to its servicing obligations and that may cause it to incur expense or liability.  The servicer will indemnify the trust, the owner trustee and the indenture trustee for damages caused by the servicer’s willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its servicing obligations.

 

Amendments to Sale and Servicing Agreement

 

The trust, the depositor and the servicer may amend the sale and servicing agreement, without the consent of the noteholders, to clarify an ambiguity, correct an error or correct or supplement any term of the agreement that may be defective or inconsistent with the other terms of the agreement.

 

112


Table of Contents

 

The trust, the depositor and the servicer may amend the sale and servicing agreement to add, change or eliminate terms of the agreement if:

 

·                the depositor, the servicer or the trust certifies that the amendment will not have a material adverse effect on the noteholders or, if such a certification cannot be made, the consent of a majority of each class of notes (with each class voting separately, except that the Class A notes will vote together as a single class) is received, and

 

·                the depositor, the servicer or the trust delivers a legal opinion that, for federal income tax purposes, the amendment will not cause any note to be deemed sold or exchanged, cause the trust to be treated as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation or adversely affect the treatment of the notes as debt for federal income tax purposes.

 

The prior consent of all affected noteholders will be required for any amendment that would:

 

·                  change the amount, timing, allocation or priority of distributions required to be made to the noteholders,

 

·                  change the terms on which the servicer may exercise the clean up call option,

 

·                  reduce the percentage of noteholders that are required to consent to an amendment, or

 

·                  change the amount required to be in the reserve account.

 

Resignation and Termination of Servicer

 

Ford Credit may not resign as servicer unless it is legally unable to perform its servicing obligations.  No resignation will become effective until a successor servicer has been engaged by the indenture trustee or the date the servicer becomes legally unable to act.

 

Each of the following events will be a “servicer termination event” under the sale and servicing agreement:

 

·                the servicer fails to deposit any collections, payments or other amounts and that failure continues for five business days after it receives notice of the failure from the owner trustee or the indenture trustee or a responsible person of the servicer knows of the failure, unless:

 

         the failure was caused by an event outside the servicer’s control and does not continue for more than ten business days, and the servicer uses all commercially reasonable efforts to perform its obligations and promptly notifies the owner trustee, the indenture trustee and the depositor of the failure and the steps being taken by the servicer to correct it, or

 

         the failure relates to an amount no greater than 0.05% of the outstanding principal balance of notes issued by the trust and does not continue for more than (a) if the servicer’s long-term debt is rated investment grade by all rating agencies rating the notes, 90 days after the servicer receives notice of the failure or a responsible person of the servicer learns of the failure or (b) if the servicer’s long-term debt is not so rated, 90 days after the collections, payments or other amounts were required to be deposited,

 

·                the servicer fails to perform its obligations under the transaction documents and that failure has a material adverse effect on the notes and continues for 90 days after it receives notice of the failure from the owner trustee, the indenture trustee or at least 25% of the controlling class, or

 

·                bankruptcy of the servicer.

 

113


Table of Contents

 

The indenture trustee, acting at the direction of a majority of the controlling class, may waive any servicer termination event.  As long as a servicer termination event has not been corrected, the indenture trustee may, or, at the direction of a majority of the controlling class, must, terminate the servicer for the trust.

 

If the servicer resigns or is terminated, the indenture trustee will promptly engage a successor servicer to assume the servicing obligations.  If a successor servicer is not appointed when the servicer stops performing its obligations, the indenture trustee automatically will become the successor servicer.  If the indenture trustee is unwilling or legally unable to act as servicer, it may appoint, or petition a court to appoint, a successor servicer having a net worth of at least $50 million and whose regular business includes the servicing of motor vehicle receivables.

 

If a bankruptcy trustee or similar official is appointed for the servicer and no other servicer termination event has occurred, the bankruptcy trustee or official may have the power to prevent the indenture trustee or the noteholders from terminating the servicer.

 

The servicer will agree to cooperate to effect an orderly servicing transfer and make available its records on payments on the receivables and the receivable files.  The servicer will not be required to make available or license its proprietary servicing procedures, processes, models, software or other applications.  The predecessor servicer will reimburse the successor servicer for reasonable expenses for the transition of servicing obligations.

 

MONTHLY REPORTS

 

On or about the 10th day of each month, the servicer will prepare and deliver an investor report to the owner trustee, the indenture trustee, the depositor and, if requested, the rating agencies.  Each investor report will contain information about payments to be made on the notes on the payment date, the performance of the receivables during the collection period and the status of any credit enhancement.  An officer of the servicer will certify the accuracy of the information in each investor report.  The servicer will post each investor report on its website located at https://www.ford.com/finance/investor-center/asset-backed-securitization on the payment date.  The investor report will contain the following information for each payment date:

 

·                collections on the receivables for the collection period allocated by interest and principal,

 

·                the fees and expenses payable to the indenture trustee, the owner trustee, the asset representations reviewer and the trust,

 

·                the servicing fee payable to the servicer,

 

·                the amount of interest and principal payable and paid on each class of notes, in each case expressed as an aggregate amount and per $1,000 of principal amount,

 

·                the regular principal payment and any priority principal payments,

 

·                the principal amount of each class of notes at the beginning of the period and the end of the period and the note factors needed to compute the principal amount of each class of notes, in each case giving effect to all payments to be made on the payment date,

 

·                the balance of the reserve account and the amount of any withdrawals from or deposits to the reserve account to be made on the payment date,

 

·                information on the performance of the receivables for the collection period, including the pool balance, collections and the aggregate amount paid by Ford Credit or the depositor to repurchase

 

114


Table of Contents

 

ineligible receivables, servicer impaired receivables or receivables modified by the servicer, any repurchase demand activity, the number of receivables remaining in the pool and the pool factor,

 

·                delinquency, repossession and credit loss information on the receivables for the collection period, and whether the delinquency trigger occurred,

 

·                the targeted overcollateralization amount and the yield supplement overcollateralization amount, and

 

·                the amount of available funds released to the holder of the residual interest.

 

The first investor report will also include the fair value of the residual interest as a percentage of the sum of the fair value of the notes and the residual interest and as a dollar amount as of the closing date, together with a description of any changes in the methodology or inputs and assumptions used to calculate the fair value, as described in “Credit Risk Retention.”

 

The servicer will use the investor report to direct the indenture trustee on payments to be made to the noteholders on each payment date.  The indenture trustee will not be obligated to verify calculations made by the servicer.  On each payment date, the indenture trustee, as paying agent, will forward the investor report to each noteholder of record or make the investor report available to noteholders through the indenture trustee’s internet website, which is located at https://gctinvestorreporting.bnymellon.com.

 

The servicer, on behalf of the trust, will file a Form 10-D for the trust with the SEC within 15 days after each payment date, which will include the investor report for that payment date and the following information, if applicable:

 

·                a description of the events that triggered a review of the review receivables by the asset representations reviewer during the prior month,

 

·                if the asset representations reviewer delivered its review report during the prior month, a summary of the report,

 

·                if the asset representations reviewer resigned or was removed, replaced or substituted, or if a new asset representations reviewer was appointed during the prior month, the identity and experience of the new asset representations reviewer, the date the change occurred and the circumstances surrounding the change,

 

·                a statement that the trust received a request from a noteholder during the prior month to communicate with other noteholders, together with the date the request was received, the name of the requesting noteholder, a statement that the requesting noteholder is interested in communicating with other noteholders about the possible exercise of rights under the transaction documents and a description of the method by which the other noteholders may contact the requesting noteholder, and

 

·                any material change in the depositor’s retained interest in this securitization transaction.

 

The servicer, on behalf of the trust, will also prepare asset-level data about the receivables relating to the issued notes for this securitization transaction for the prior month and file it with the SEC on Form ABS-EE before filing the Form 10-D.  The Form ABS-EE, and related information attached as exhibits to the form, will be incorporated by reference into the Form 10-D.  The asset-level data will contain detailed information for each receivable about its identification, origination, contract terms, financed vehicle, obligor, contract and payment activity, servicing and status.  Certain asset-level data, such as data related to collections, repurchased receivables, losses on the receivables and repossessions, may not match the aggregate data provided on the investor report due to differences in how this data is required to be reported for asset-level data and how this data is reported for the investor report.  Investors should

carefully review the asset-level data and related information attached as exhibits to Form ABS-EE to find more information about the differences, if any, between the asset-level data and investor reports.

 

ANNUAL COMPLIANCE REPORTS

 

The servicer will prepare or obtain a number of annual reports, statements or certificates for the trust.  No later than 90 days after the end of the calendar year, the servicer will provide to the depositor, the trust, the indenture trustee and the rating agencies the following:

 

·                Compliance Certificate:  a certificate stating that the servicer fulfilled all of its obligations under the sale and servicing agreement in all material respects throughout the prior year or, if there was a failure to fulfill any obligation in any material respect, stating the nature and status of each failure,

 

·                Assessment of Compliance:  copies of any report by the servicer and any other “servicer” (as defined in Regulation AB under the Securities Act of 1933) on its assessment of compliance with the minimum servicing criteria regarding general servicing, cash collection and administration, investor payments and reporting and pool asset administration during the prior year covering securitization transactions sponsored by Ford Credit involving retail installment sale contracts that were subject to Regulation AB, including disclosure of any material instance of noncompliance identified by that servicer, and

 

·                Attestation Report:  copies of any report by a registered public accounting firm that attests to, and reports on, the assessment made by the servicer and any other “servicer” (as defined in Regulation AB under the Securities Act of 1933) of compliance with the minimum servicing criteria during the prior year covering securitization transactions sponsored by Ford Credit involving retail installment sale contracts that were subject to Regulation AB, which must be made according to standards for attestation engagements issued or adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.

 

The servicer will file the compliance certificate, the assessment report and the attestation report with the SEC as exhibits to the trust’s annual report on Form 10-K within 90 days after the end of the calendar year.  A copy of these items may be obtained by any noteholder by request to the indenture trustee.

Administrator

 

Ford Credit will be the administrator of the trust under an administration agreement.

 

The administrator’s main obligations will be to provide notices on behalf of the trust and perform all administrative obligations of the trust under the transaction documents, including to:

 

·                  obtain and maintain the trust’s qualification to do business where necessary,

 

·                  notify the rating agencies and the indenture trustee of events of default,

 

·                  prepare and file reports with the SEC,

 

·                  cause the servicer to perform its obligations under the sale and servicing agreement, and

 

·                  cause the indenture trustee to notify the noteholders of the redemption of their notes.

 

The administrator will indemnify the owner trustee, the indenture trustee and the asset representations reviewer for liabilities and damages resulting from the performance of their obligations under the transaction documents unless resulting from their willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence (other than errors in judgment) or breach of their representations in the transaction documents.

 

The depositor will pay the administrator an annual administration fee.

 

The administrator may not resign unless it is legally unable to perform its administrative obligations.  If the servicer is terminated, the administrator will immediately resign on the appointment or engagement of a successor servicer (other than the indenture trustee), who will automatically become the successor administrator.  The owner trustee, with the consent of a majority of the controlling class, may remove the administrator if (a) the administrator fails to perform in any material respect its obligations, which continues for 90 days after the administrator receives notice of the failure from the owner trustee, the indenture trustee or at least 25% of the controlling class or (b) an insolvency event of the administrator occurs.  No resignation or removal of the administrator will become effective until a successor administrator is in place.

 

Owner Trustee

 

U.S. Bank Trust National Association, or “U.S. Bank Trust,” a national banking association, will act as the “owner trustee” under the trust agreement.  U.S. Bank Trust is a national banking association and a wholly-owned subsidiary of U.S. Bank National Association, or “U.S. Bank,” the fifth largest commercial bank in the United States.  U.S. Bancorp, with total assets exceeding $547 billion as of June 30, 2020, is the parent company of U.S. Bank.  As of June 30, 2020, U.S. Bancorp served approximately 18 million customers and operated over 2,700 branch offices in 25 states. A network of specialized U.S. Bancorp offices across the nation provides a comprehensive line of banking, brokerage, insurance, investment, mortgage, trust and payment services products to consumers, businesses and institutions.

 

U.S. Bank Trust has provided owner trustee services since the year 2000.  As of June 30, 2020, U.S. Bank Trust was acting as owner trustee with respect to over 700 issuances of securities.  This portfolio includes mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities.  U.S. Bank Trust has acted as owner trustee of auto-backed securities since the year 2000.  As of June 30, 2020, U.S. Bank Trust was acting as owner trustee on 70 issuances of auto-backed securities. The owner trustee’s main obligations will be to:

 

·                  create the trust by filing a certificate of trust with the Delaware Secretary of State, and

 

·                  execute documents on behalf of the trust.

The owner trustee will not be liable for any action, omission or error in judgment, except for its own willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence.  The owner trustee will not be required to exercise any of its rights or powers under the transaction documents or to start, conduct or defend any legal proceedings on behalf of the trust at the direction of the depositor unless the depositor has offered reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to the owner trustee to protect it against the costs and expenses that it may incur in complying with the direction.

 

The depositor and the administrator will indemnify the owner trustee for liabilities and damages resulting from the owner trustee’s performance of its obligations under the trust agreement unless resulting from the willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence (other than errors in judgment) of the owner trustee or the breach of representations made by the owner trustee in the trust agreement.  The servicer will indemnify the owner trustee for liabilities and damages resulting from the servicer’s willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence (other than errors in judgment) in the performance of its obligations as servicer.

 

The trust will pay the acceptance fees and annual fees of the owner trustee, reimburse the owner trustee for expenses incurred in performing its obligations, and pay any indemnities due to the owner trustee, to the extent those amounts are not paid or reimbursed by the depositor or the administrator.  The trust will pay these amounts to the owner trustee on each payment date, along with similar amounts owed to the indenture trustee and the asset representations reviewer and expenses incurred by the trust under the transaction documents, up to the limit of $375,000 per year, before the trust makes any other payments.  The trust will pay any of these amounts in excess of the limit only after paying in full on that payment date all other fees and expenses of the trust and all required interest and principal payments on the notes and after any required deposits in the reserve account are made.  After an event of default, however, these fees, expenses and indemnities will be paid first.

 

The owner trustee may resign at any time by notifying the depositor and the administrator at least 30 days in advance.  The administrator may remove the owner trustee at any time and for any reason by notifying the owner trustee at least 30 days in advance.  The administrator must remove the owner trustee if the owner trustee becomes legally unable to act as owner trustee, becomes subject to a bankruptcy or is no longer eligible to act as owner trustee under the trust agreement because of changes in its legal status, financial condition or ratings.  No resignation or removal of the owner trustee will be effective until a successor owner trustee is in place.  If not paid by the trust, the depositor will pay the owner trustee and the successor owner trustee for the expenses for replacement of the owner trustee.

 

The trust agreement will terminate when:

 

·                  the last receivable has been paid in full, settled, sold or charged off and all collections have been applied, or

 

·                  the trust paid all notes in full and all other amounts payable by it under the transaction documents.

 

On termination of the trust agreement, any remaining trust assets will be distributed to the holder of the residual interest in the trust and the trust will be terminated.

Indenture Trustee

 

The Bank of New York Mellon, a New York banking corporation, will act as the “indenture trustee” under the indenture.  Its principal corporate trust office is located at 240 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10286.  The Bank of New York Mellon has been, and currently is, serving as indenture trustee and trustee for numerous securitization transactions and programs involving pools of auto receivables.  The Bank of New York Mellon is one of the largest corporate trust providers of trust services on securitization transactions.

 

The indenture trustee’s main obligations will be to:

 

·      hold the security interest in the receivables and other trust assets on behalf of the noteholders,

 

·      administer the trust bank accounts,

 

·      enforce remedies at the direction of the controlling class after an event of default and acceleration of the notes,

 

·      act as note registrar to maintain a record of noteholders and provide for the registration, transfer, exchange and replacement of notes,

 

·      act as note paying agent to make payments from the trust bank accounts to the noteholders and others,

 

·      notify the asset representations reviewer when a review has been directed by the noteholders, and

 

·      notify the noteholders of an event of default.

 

Except in limited circumstances, if a responsible person of the indenture trustee knows of an event that with notice or the lapse of time or both would become an event of default, it must provide written notice to the noteholders within 90 days.  If a responsible person of the indenture trustee knows of an event of default, it must notify all noteholders within five business days.  If the notes have been accelerated, the indenture trustee may, and at the direction of a majority of the controlling class must, start proceedings for the collection of amounts payable on the notes and enforce any judgment obtained, start foreclosure proceedings and, in some circumstances, sell the receivables.

 

The indenture trustee’s obligations and standard of care change depending on whether an event of default occurred.  Before an event of default, the indenture trustee is only required to perform the obligations stated in the indenture and will not have any implied obligations and will not be liable for any action, omission or error in judgment, except for its own willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence.  After an event of default, the indenture trustee must exercise its rights and powers under the indenture using the same degree of care and skill that a prudent person would use under the circumstances in conducting his or her own affairs.  After an event of default, the indenture trustee may assert claims on behalf of the trust and the noteholders against the depositor and Ford Credit.

 

For a description of the rights and obligations of the indenture trustee after an event of default and on acceleration of the notes, you should read “Description of the Notes — Events of Default and Acceleration.”

 

The indenture trustee must mail an annual report to the noteholders if events stated in the Trust Indenture Act have occurred during the prior year, including a change to the indenture trustee’s eligibility under the Trust Indenture Act, a conflict of interest under the Trust Indenture Act, a release of trust assets from the lien of the indenture and any action taken by the indenture trustee that has a material adverse effect on the notes.

The indenture trustee will not be required to exercise any of its rights or powers, expend or risk its own funds or incur financial liability in the performance of its obligations if it has reasonable grounds to believe that it is not likely to be repaid or indemnified by the trust.  The indenture trustee also will not be required to take action in response to litigation, investigations, requests, demands or directions of the noteholders, other than litigation, investigations, requests, demands or directions relating to an asset representations review, unless the noteholders have offered reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to the indenture trustee to protect it against the costs and expenses that it may incur in complying with the litigation, investigation, request, demand or direction.

 

The trust and the administrator will indemnify the indenture trustee for liabilities and damages resulting from the indenture trustee’s performance of its obligations under the indenture unless resulting from the willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence (other than errors in judgment) of the indenture trustee or the breach of representations made by the indenture trustee in the indenture.  The servicer will indemnify the indenture trustee for damages resulting from the servicer’s willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence (other than errors of judgment) in the performance of its obligations as servicer.

 

The trust will pay the acceptance fees and annual fees of the indenture trustee, reimburse the indenture trustee for expenses incurred in performing its obligations and pay any indemnities due to the indenture trustee, to the extent those amounts are not paid or reimbursed by the depositor or the administrator.  The trust will pay these amounts to the indenture trustee on each payment date, along with similar amounts owed to the owner trustee and the asset representations reviewer and expenses incurred by the trust under the transaction documents, up to the limit of $375,000 per year, before the trust makes any other payments.  The trust will pay any of these amounts in excess of the limit only after paying in full on that payment date all other fees and expenses of the trust and all required interest and principal payments on the notes and after any required deposits in the reserve account have been made.  After an event of default, however, these fees, expenses and indemnities will be paid first.

 

Under the Trust Indenture Act, the indenture trustee may be considered to have a conflict of interest and be required to resign as indenture trustee for the notes or any class of notes if a default occurs under the indenture.  In these circumstances, separate successor indenture trustees will be appointed for each class of notes.  Even if separate indenture trustees are appointed, only the indenture trustee acting on behalf of the controlling class will have the right to exercise remedies and only the controlling class will have the right to direct or consent to any action to be taken, including a sale of the receivables.

 

The indenture trustee may resign at any time by notifying the trust at least 30 days in advance.  A majority of the controlling class may remove the indenture trustee at any time and for any reason by notifying the indenture trustee and the trust at least 30 days in advance.  The trust must remove the indenture trustee if the indenture trustee becomes legally unable to act as indenture trustee, becomes subject to a bankruptcy or is no longer eligible to act as indenture trustee under the indenture because of changes in its legal status, financial condition or ratings.  No resignation or removal of the indenture trustee will be effective until a successor indenture trustee is in place.  If not paid by the trust, the depositor will pay the indenture trustee and the successor indenture trustee for any expenses for replacement of the indenture trustee.

 

Asset Representations Reviewer

 

Clayton Fixed Income Services LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or “Clayton,” will act as the “asset representations reviewer” under the asset representations review agreement.  Clayton is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Covius Services, LLC. Clayton and its affiliates have provided independent due diligence loan review and servicer oversight services since 1989.  Clayton has been engaged as the asset representations reviewer on more than 350 auto and equipment loan, lease and dealer floorplan and credit card securitization transactions since 2015.

 

122


Table of Contents

 

Clayton and its affiliates are leading providers of targeted due diligence reviews of securitized assets and policies and procedures of originators and servicers to assess compliance with representations and warranties, regulatory and legal requirements, investor guidelines and settlement agreements.  Clayton and its affiliates have performed over 12 million loan reviews and provided ongoing oversight on over $2 trillion of securitization transactions on behalf of investors, sponsors, issuers and originators, including government sponsored enterprises and other governmental agencies.  These services have been performed primarily on residential mortgage loan and residential mortgage-backed security transactions, although Clayton and its affiliates have also performed these services for transactions involving auto loans, credit cards, commercial mortgage loans, student loans, timeshare loans and boat and recreational vehicle loans.

 

The asset representations reviewer is an “eligible asset representations reviewer,” meaning that (i) it is not affiliated with the sponsor, the depositor, the servicer, the indenture trustee, the owner trustee or any of their affiliates and (ii) neither it nor any of its affiliates has been hired by the sponsor or the underwriters to perform pre-closing due diligence work on the receivables.  For so long as the notes remain outstanding, the asset representations reviewer must be an eligible asset representations reviewer.

 

The asset representations reviewer’s main obligations will be to:

 

·      review each review receivable after receipt of a review notice from the indenture trustee, and

 

·      provide a report on the results of the review to the trust, the servicer and the indenture trustee.

 

For a description of the review to be performed by the asset representations reviewer, you should read “Receivables — Asset Representations Review.”

 

The asset representations reviewer is not responsible for (a) reviewing the receivables for compliance with the representations under the transaction documents, except in connection with a review under the asset representations review agreement or (b) determining whether noncompliance with any representation is a breach of the transaction documents or if any receivable is required to be repurchased.

 

The asset representations reviewer will not be liable for any action, omission or error in judgment, except for its own willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence.  The asset representations reviewer will not be liable for any errors in any review materials relied on by it to perform a review or for the noncompliance or breach of any representation made about the receivables.

 

The trust and the administrator will indemnify the asset representations reviewer for liabilities and damages resulting from the asset representations reviewer’s performance of its obligations under the asset representations review agreement unless resulting from the willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence (other than errors in judgment) of the asset representations reviewer or the breach of representations made by the asset representations reviewer in the asset representations review agreement.

 

The trust will pay the annual fees and review fees of the asset representations reviewer, reimburse the asset representations reviewer for their reasonable travel expenses for a review and pay any indemnities due to the asset representations reviewer, to the extent those amounts are not paid or reimbursed by the administrator.  The trust will pay these amounts to the asset representations reviewer on each payment date, along with similar amounts owed to the indenture trustee and the owner trustee and expenses incurred by the trust under the transaction documents, up to the limit of $375,000 per year, before the trust makes any other payments.  The trust will pay any of these amounts in excess of the limit only after paying in full on that payment date all other fees and expenses of the trust and all required interest and principal payments on the notes and after any required deposits in the reserve account have been made.  After an event of default, however, these fees, expenses and indemnities will be paid first.

Table of Contents

 

The asset representations reviewer may not resign, unless it becomes legally unable to perform its obligations as asset representations reviewer.  The trust may remove the asset representations reviewer if the asset representations reviewer (a) ceases to be an eligible asset representations reviewer, (b) becomes legally unable to perform its obligations or (c) becomes subject to a bankruptcy.  No resignation or removal of the asset representations reviewer will be effective until a successor asset representations reviewer who is an eligible asset representations reviewer is in place.  The asset representations reviewer will pay the expenses of transitioning the asset representations reviewer’s obligations to the successor asset representations reviewer.

 

AFFILIATIONS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

 

Ford Credit is the sponsor of this securitization transaction, the original purchaser of the receivables originated by motor vehicle dealers that are being securitized and the servicer of the receivables.  As the sponsor, Ford Credit caused the depositor to be formed for purposes of participating in securitization transactions.  Ford Credit is the sole member of the depositor.  Ford Credit caused the depositor to form the trust that is the issuing entity for this securitization transaction and will be the administrator of the trust.  The depositor is the sole beneficiary of the trust and the holder of the residual interest in the trust.

 

In the ordinary course of business from time to time, Ford Credit and its affiliates have business relationships and agreements with the owner trustee, the indenture trustee and the asset representations reviewer and their affiliates, including commercial banking and corporate trust services, committed credit facilities, underwriting agreements, hedging agreements, investment and financial advisory services, due diligence services and securitization services, all on arm’s length terms and conditions.

 

TRANSACTION FEES AND EXPENSES

 

The following table shows the amount or formula for the fees payable to the indenture trustee, the owner trustee, the asset representations reviewer and the servicer.  The fees of the indenture trustee, the owner trustee and the asset representations reviewer may be paid monthly, annually or on another schedule as agreed by the administrator and the indenture trustee, the owner trustee and the asset representations reviewer.  To the extent these fees have not been paid by the depositor or the administrator, they will be paid on each payment date from available funds in the order of priority described in “Description of the Notes — Priority of Payments.”  These fees will not change during the term of this securitization transaction.

The trust will pay and reimburse the indenture trustee and the owner trustee for their fees and reasonable expenses incurred under the indenture and the trust agreement and the asset representations reviewer for its reasonable travel expenses for a review under the asset representations review agreement, each to the extent not paid by the depositor or the administrator.  The trust also will pay any indemnities owed to the indenture trustee, the owner trustee or the asset representations reviewer if not paid by the depositor or the administrator.  For information about indemnities applicable to the indenture trustee, the owner trustee and the asset representations reviewer, you should read “Transaction Parties — Indenture Trustee,” “Transaction Parties — Owner Trustee” and “Transaction Parties — Asset Representations Reviewer.”

 

The servicing fee will be paid to the servicer for the servicing of the receivables under the sale and servicing agreement.  The servicer will be responsible for its own expenses under the servicing agreement except that the servicer may net from collections the costs and expenses of the repossession and disposition of financed vehicles and external costs of collection on charged off receivables.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

The net proceeds from the sale of the notes issued on the closing date will be used by the depositor to purchase the receivables from Ford Credit.  Ford Credit will use the proceeds from the sale of the receivables for general corporate purposes.  No expenses were incurred in connection with the selection or acquisition of receivables for this securitization transaction.

 

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

There are no legal proceedings pending or known to be contemplated by any governmental authorities against the sponsor, the depositor, the owner trustee, the indenture trustee, the trust or the servicer, or of which any of their property is subject, that is material to noteholders.

 

IMPORTANT LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS

 

Bankruptcy Considerations

 

Sale of Receivables by Ford Credit to the Depositor.  The sale of the receivables by Ford Credit to the depositor will be structured to minimize the possibility that a bankruptcy proceeding of Ford Credit will adversely affect the trust’s rights in the receivables.  Ford Credit and the depositor intend that the sale of the receivables by Ford Credit to the depositor will be a “true sale.” The depositor will have no recourse to Ford Credit other than the limited obligation to repurchase receivables for breaches of representations.

 

On the closing date, Ford Credit and the depositor will receive a reasoned legal opinion that in a bankruptcy of Ford Credit:

 

·      the receivables and the collections on the receivables would not be property of Ford Credit’s bankruptcy estate under U.S. federal bankruptcy laws, and

 

·      the automatic stay under U.S. federal bankruptcy laws would not apply to prevent payment of the collections on the receivables to the depositor or the trust.

 

This opinion will be subject to assumptions and qualifications and a court in a Ford Credit bankruptcy proceeding may not reach the same conclusion.

Table of Contents

 

Structure of Depositor; Risk of Substantive Consolidation.  The depositor is organized as a special purpose entity and is restricted by its limited liability company agreement to activities designed to make it “bankruptcy-remote.”  These restrictions limit the nature of its activities, prohibit the incurrence of additional indebtedness and make it unlikely that the depositor will have any creditors.  This agreement also restricts the depositor from starting a voluntary case or proceeding under U.S. bankruptcy laws or similar state laws without the unanimous consent of its board of managers, including independent managers who are instructed to take into account the interests of creditors of the depositor and the trusts created by the depositor, as well as the interests of the depositor, in any vote to allow the depositor to file for bankruptcy.  The limited liability company agreement also contains covenants meant to maintain the separate identity of the depositor from Ford Credit and to avoid substantive consolidation of Ford Credit and the depositor.  The most important of these covenants require each company to maintain its separate existence, maintain separate books and bank accounts, prepare separate financial statements and not hold itself as liable for debts of the other and not commingle the depositor’s assets with the assets of Ford Credit or its affiliates.  These restrictions and covenants may not be amended without the consent of the entire board of managers, including the independent managers, and satisfaction of the rating agency condition.

 

In addition, in the transaction documents, the owner trustee, the indenture trustee and the noteholders will agree not to start or pursue a bankruptcy proceeding against the depositor.

 

On the closing date, Ford Credit and the depositor will obtain a reasoned legal opinion that in a bankruptcy of Ford Credit, a creditor or bankruptcy trustee of Ford Credit (or Ford Credit as debtor in possession) would not have valid grounds to request a court to disregard the separate legal existence of the depositor so as to cause substantive consolidation of the assets and liabilities of the depositor with the assets and liabilities of Ford Credit in a manner prejudicial to the noteholders.  This opinion will be subject to assumptions and qualifications, including an assumption that the depositor and Ford Credit comply with its limited liability company agreement.  A court in a Ford Credit bankruptcy proceeding may not reach the same conclusion.  If the separate legal existence of Ford Credit and the depositor were disregarded and the assets and liabilities of Ford Credit and the depositor were consolidated, assets of the depositor could be used to satisfy Ford Credit’s creditors instead of the noteholders or the trust.  This consolidation of assets and liabilities generally is referred to as “substantive consolidation.”

 

Sale of Receivables by the Depositor to the Trust; Perfection of Security Interests.  The transfer of the receivables by the depositor to the trust will also be structured as a sale.  Similar to the sale by Ford Credit to the depositor, where Ford Credit is the sole member of the depositor, the depositor will retain an interest in the receivables it sells in the form of a residual interest in the trust.  This transfer may not be a “true sale” that removes the receivables from the bankruptcy estate of the depositor.  The depositor will grant a back-up security interest in the receivables to the trust and will file Uniform Commercial Code financing statements to perfect the trust’s ownership interest and security interest in the receivables.  The trust agreement contains terms similar to those in the depositor’s limited liability company agreement designed to make it “bankruptcy-remote” by limiting the trust’s activities and requiring creditors to agree not to start a bankruptcy proceeding against the trust.

 

Assuming that the sale of the receivables by Ford Credit to the depositor is a “true sale,” the depositor is not consolidated with Ford Credit in a bankruptcy of Ford Credit and the depositor is not in bankruptcy, the trust’s perfected security interest in the receivables generally will provide the trust with uninterrupted access to collections on the receivables (other than any collections held by Ford Credit as servicer at the time a bankruptcy proceeding is begun).  The trust will grant a security interest in the receivables and other trust assets to the indenture trustee for the benefit of the noteholders, and the administrator will file Uniform Commercial Code financing statements to perfect and maintain the perfection of the security interest.

Table of Contents

 

Bankruptcy Proceedings of Ford Credit, the Depositor or the ServicerThe depositor does not intend to start, and Ford Credit will agree that it will not cause the depositor to start, a voluntary bankruptcy proceeding while the depositor is solvent.

 

The bankruptcy of the servicer will be a servicer termination event.  If no other servicer termination event other than a bankruptcy exists, a trustee-in-bankruptcy of the servicer may have the power to prevent either the indenture trustee or the noteholders from terminating the servicer.

 

Payments made by Ford Credit or the depositor to repurchase receivables may be recoverable by Ford Credit or the depositor, as debtor-in-possession, or by a creditor or a trustee-in-bankruptcy of Ford Credit or of the depositor as a preferential transfer from Ford Credit or the depositor if the payments were made within one year before the filing of a bankruptcy proceeding against Ford Credit.

 

The Dodd-Frank Act

 

Orderly Liquidation Authority.  The Dodd-Frank Act established the Orderly Liquidation Authority, or “OLA,” under which the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or “FDIC,” is authorized to act as receiver of a financial company and its subsidiaries.  OLA differs from U.S. federal bankruptcy laws in several ways.  In addition, because the legislation remains subject to clarification through FDIC regulations and has yet to be applied by the FDIC in a receivership, it is unclear what impact OLA will have on a particular company, including Ford Credit, the depositor or the trust, or the company’s creditors.

 

Potential Applicability to Ford Credit, the Depositor and the Trust.  It is not clear which companies will be subject to OLA rather than the U.S. federal bankruptcy laws.  For a company to become subject to OLA, the Secretary of the Treasury (in consultation with the President of the United States) must determine that (a) the company is in default or in danger of default, (b) the failure of the company and its resolution under the U.S. federal bankruptcy laws would have serious adverse effects on financial stability in the United States, (c) no viable private sector alternative is available to prevent the default of the company and (d) an OLA proceeding would mitigate these effects.  It is not clear whether OLA would be applied to Ford Credit, although it is expected that OLA will be used only very rarely.  The depositor or the trust could, under some circumstances, also be subject to OLA.

 

FDIC’s Avoidance Power Under OLA.  The parts of OLA relating to preferential transfers differ from those of the U.S. federal bankruptcy laws.  If Ford Credit were to become subject to OLA, there is an interpretation under OLA that previous transfers of receivables by Ford Credit perfected for purposes of state law and the U.S. federal bankruptcy laws could nevertheless be avoided by the FDIC as preferential transfers.  In this case, the receivables securing the notes could be reclaimed by the FDIC and the noteholders may have only an unsecured claim against Ford Credit.

 

In July 2011, the FDIC adopted final rules which harmonize the application of the FDIC’s avoidance power under OLA with the related parts of the U.S. federal bankruptcy laws.  Based on these rules, the transfer of the receivables by Ford Credit would not be avoidable by the FDIC as a preference under OLA.

 

FDIC’s Repudiation Power Under OLA.  If the FDIC is appointed receiver of a company under OLA, the FDIC would have the power to repudiate any contract to which the company was a party, if the FDIC determined that performance of the contract was burdensome and that repudiation would promote the orderly administration of the company’s affairs.

 

127


Table of Contents

 

In January 2011, the Acting General Counsel of the FDIC issued an advisory opinion confirming:

 

·      that nothing in the Dodd-Frank Act changes the existing law governing the separate existence of separate entities under other applicable law, or changes the enforceability of standard contractual provisions meant to foster the bankruptcy-remote treatment of special purpose entities such as the depositor and the trust, and

 

·      that, until the FDIC adopts a regulation, the FDIC will not exercise its repudiation authority to reclaim, recover or recharacterize as property of a company in receivership or the receivership assets transferred by the company before the end of the transition period of any future regulation, if the transfer satisfies the conditions for the exclusion of the assets from the property of the estate of the company under the U.S. federal bankruptcy laws.

 

Ford Credit and the depositor intend that the sale of the receivables by Ford Credit to the depositor will be a “true sale” between separate legal entities under state law.  As a result, Ford Credit believes that the FDIC would not be able to recover the receivables using its repudiation power.

 

Although the advisory opinion does not bind the FDIC, and could be modified or withdrawn in the future, the opinion provides that it will apply to asset transfers which occur before the end of any transition period adopted to implement future regulation addressing the FDIC’s repudiation authority under OLA.  However, it is not certain that the FDIC will address its repudiation authority under OLA in future regulations or that future regulations or FDIC actions in an OLA proceeding involving Ford Credit, the depositor or the trust would not be contrary to this opinion.

 

If the trust were placed in receivership under OLA, the FDIC would have the power to repudiate the notes issued by the trust.  In that case, the FDIC would be required to pay compensatory damages that are no less than the principal amount of the notes plus accrued interest as of the date the FDIC was appointed receiver and, to the extent that the value of the property that secured the notes is greater than the principal amount of the notes and accrued interest through the date of repudiation or disaffirmance, that accrued interest.

 

Security Interests in Receivables and Vehicles

 

The sale and assignment of the receivables to the trust, the perfection of the security interests pledged in the receivables and the enforcement of rights to realize on the financed vehicles as collateral for the receivables will be subject to a number of federal and state laws, including the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in each state.  The retail installment sale contracts, both tangible and electronic, purchased by Ford Credit are “chattel paper” for purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code.  The sale, assignment and pledge of “chattel paper” may be perfected either by taking physical possession of tangible contracts and taking and maintaining “control” (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code) of electronic contracts or by the filing of financing statements under the Uniform Commercial Code.

 

All retail installment sale contracts acquired by Ford Credit are assigned to Ford Credit by the dealer under the terms of an assignment agreement.  Each retail installment sale contract includes a grant by the obligor of a security interest in the financed vehicle.  Ford Credit either takes physical possession, for tangible contracts, or takes and maintains “control,” for electronic contracts, to obtain a perfected security interest in the contract against the dealer.  The tangible contracts are held by Ford Credit or by a third-party vendor.  The electronic contracts are stored in a specially-designed computer system maintained by a third-party vendor that identifies Ford Credit as the owner and establishes Ford Credit’s “control” of the electronic contracts.

Table of Contents

 

The sale and assignment of the receivables from Ford Credit to the depositor and from the depositor to the trust and the pledge of the receivables from the trust to the indenture trustee, will be perfected, at each stage, by the filing of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code.  Ford Credit will not transfer physical possession or “control” of the contracts to the trust or the indenture trustee, but will maintain possession and “control” and act as custodian for the trust and the indenture trustee.  Ford Credit will mark its accounting records and computer systems to reflect the assignment and pledge, but will not segregate the contracts that are in its possession or “control” and they will not be stamped or marked to reflect the sale and assignment to the trust or the pledge to the indenture trustee so long as Ford Credit is servicing the receivables.

 

Ford Credit follows procedures to perfect its security interest in the financed vehicle usually by notation of its lien on the certificate of title for the financed vehicle.  Generally, these procedures require the dealer to apply for a title that includes Ford Credit’s lien immediately after Ford Credit’s purchase of a contract.  The vehicle titling laws of most states also allow Ford Credit to retain possession of the certificate of title until the contract is paid in full.  The procedures to perfect Ford Credit’s lien on the financed vehicle depend on the actions of third parties, including dealers, vehicle owners and state and local motor vehicle registration authorities.  If Ford Credit obtains a validly perfected security interest in the financed vehicle on a timely basis, the trust, as assignee of the receivable, will also have the benefits of this security interest in most states.  To avoid the administrative burden and costs, no financed vehicles are re-registered to identify the trust as the new secured party on the certificate of title and the obligors will not be notified that their contracts have been sold.  If Ford Credit does not obtain a perfected security interest in the financed vehicle due to fraud, forgery, negligence or administrative error of a third party, its security interest and, therefore, that of the trust, could be subordinated to later purchasers of the financed vehicle and later lenders with a perfected security interest.  If the trust does not have a perfected security interest in a financed vehicle, its ability to realize on the financed vehicle after an obligor default would be adversely affected.  Under the sale and servicing agreement, the servicer must take appropriate steps to maintain perfection of the security interest in the financed vehicles and must purchase the receivable if it fails to do so and the receivable is materially and adversely affected.

 

In most states, a perfected security interest in a financed vehicle continues for four months after the vehicle is moved to a new state from the state where it is registered and thereafter until the vehicle owner re-registers the vehicle in the new state.  Ford Credit, as secured party, must surrender possession if it holds the certificate of title to the financed vehicle, or would receive notice of surrender if its security interest is noted on the certificate of title.  In either case, Ford Credit would have the opportunity to continue its security interest in the financed vehicle in the new state.  Similarly, when an obligor sells a financed vehicle, Ford Credit must surrender possession of the certificate of title or will receive notice as a lienholder and will have an opportunity to require repayment of the receivable before release of the lien.  Under the sale and servicing agreement, the servicer must take appropriate steps to maintain perfection of the security interests in the financed vehicles and must purchase the receivable if it fails to do so and the receivable is materially and adversely affected.

 

The trust’s security interest in the receivable or the financed vehicle may be subordinated because federal or state law gives the holders of some types of liens, such as tax liens or mechanic’s liens, priority over even the properly perfected lien of other secured parties.  In addition, if a financed vehicle is confiscated by a government agency, Ford Credit may not be able to obtain possession of the vehicle and enforce the security interest unless it completes documentation required by the agency, including a “hold harmless” agreement.  Unless Ford Credit fails to follow its policies and procedures, Ford Credit will not be required to purchase a receivable in these circumstances.

Repossession; Notice of Sale and Cure Rights.  If an obligor defaults on its retail installment sale contract, the servicer will have certain remedies available under that retail installment sale contract as allowed by state laws.  These remedies include the right to perform self-help repossession unless it would be a breach of the peace or unless prohibited by state law.  Self-help repossession is the method used by Ford Credit in most cases and usually is accomplished by using an independent contractor to take possession of the financed vehicle.  In cases where the obligor objects or raises a defense to repossession, or if required by state law, Ford Credit may have to obtain a court order before repossessing the vehicle.

 

If an obligor is in default under its retail installment sale contract, some states require that the obligor be notified of the default and given time to correct the default before repossession.  In Ford Credit’s experience, this right to correct is exercised by only a limited number of defaulted obligors.

 

On repossession of a vehicle, Ford Credit provides the obligor with notice of the date, time and place of a public sale and/or the date after which a private sale of the vehicle may be held.  The obligor has the right to redeem the vehicle before sale by paying the unpaid balance of the contract plus reasonable expenses for repossessing, holding, and preparing the vehicle for disposition and arranging for the sale, including attorney’s fees when allowed by law.  In some states, the obligor has the right to reinstate the contract by payment of past due amounts and other amounts instead of all amounts due under the contract.

 

Deficiency Judgments.  Ford Credit generally is required to apply the proceeds of sale of a repossessed vehicle to the expenses of resale and repossession and then to the satisfaction of the indebtedness of the obligor on the receivable.  If the net proceeds from sale do not cover the full amount of the obligation, Ford Credit may seek a deficiency judgment in some states, but other states prohibit or limit deficiency judgments.  Because a deficiency judgment is an unsecured personal judgment against the obligor for the shortfall, in many cases it is not worthwhile to seek one.  If a deficiency judgment is obtained, it may be settled at a significant discount or it may be impossible to collect.

 

Consumer Financial Protection Laws.  Numerous federal and state consumer financial protection laws and regulations impose substantial requirements on dealers, finance companies, lenders and servicers involved in consumer finance, including Ford Credit, and impose statutory liabilities on those who fail to comply with them.  The most significant consumer financial protection laws regulating the receivables include:

 

·      the federal Truth-in-Lending Act and state motor vehicle retail installment sales acts that mandate financing disclosures that must be made to consumers,

 

·      the federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act that prohibits creditors from discriminating on the basis of specific factors, such as race, color, sex, age and marital status in all aspects of a credit transaction, including the application process and the development and use of scoring models,

 

·      the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act that regulates consumer credit reports and includes requirements on when and how creditors may obtain and use these reports and actions creditors must take to prevent identity theft, and

 

·      the Gramm Leach Bliley Act and state privacy laws that require protection of specific consumer data and communication of privacy rights with consumers.

State motor vehicle retail installment sales acts and other state laws regulate fees, finance charges, collection processes and licensing requirements.  In some cases, these laws could affect the trust’s ability to enforce the receivables or subject the trust to claims and defenses of the obligor including claims the obligor may assert against the motor vehicle dealer who sold the financed vehicle.  In addition, courts have imposed general equitable principles on secured parties pursuing repossession of collateral or litigation involving deficiency balances.  These equitable principles may relieve an obligor from some or all of the legal consequences of a default.

 

Ford Credit and the depositor will represent that each receivable complies in all material respects with requirements of law and that each receivable is not subject to claims or defenses of the obligor.  This representation is based on Ford Credit’s review of form contract terms, its review of completed contracts for errors apparent in the contract, and dealer representations of contract disclosure accuracy in agreements between Ford Credit and the dealer.  If an obligor has a claim against the trust for a violation of law related to a receivable, that violation would be a breach by Ford Credit and the depositor and if the breach has a material adverse effect on a receivable, Ford Credit and the depositor would have to repurchase the receivable unless the breach is corrected in all material respects before the date the receivable is required to be repurchased.

 

Under the terms of the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act and similar state laws, Ford Credit may not charge off a receivable or use self-help methods to repossess the vehicle of an obligor who enters military service after entering into a qualifying retail installment sale contract.  In addition, an obligor who enters military service may be entitled to forgiveness of finance charges in excess of 6% per year, and a corresponding reduction in the amount of each monthly payment.  Receivables with obligors who are in the military or who enter the military may be included in the receivables owned by the trust and neither the depositor nor Ford Credit will be required to repurchase a receivable that becomes subject to these laws.

 

Bankruptcy Limitations.  U.S. bankruptcy laws affect the ability of the trust to realize on collateral or enforce a deficiency judgment.  For example, in a Chapter 13 proceeding under the U.S. federal bankruptcy law, a court may prevent a creditor from repossessing a vehicle and, as part of the plan of reorganization may, in limited circumstances, reduce the amount of the secured indebtedness to the market value of the financed vehicle at the time of bankruptcy, leaving the creditor as a general unsecured creditor for the remainder of the indebtedness.  A bankruptcy court may also reduce the monthly payments due under a contract or change the rate of interest and time of repayment of the indebtedness.  Neither the depositor nor Ford Credit will be required to repurchase a receivable that becomes subject to a bankruptcy proceeding after the cutoff date solely as a result of the bankruptcy.

 

INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS

 

The Class A-1 notes will be structured to be eligible for purchase by money market funds under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940.  Rule 2a-7 includes additional criteria for investments by money market funds, including requirements relating to portfolio maturity, quality and diversification.  Any determinations as to the qualification of the Class A-1 notes under, and compliance with, these other requirements of Rule 2a-7 are solely the responsibility of each money market fund and its investment advisor.

 

A money market fund should consider whether an investment by the money market fund in the Class A-1 notes satisfies the money market fund’s investment policies and objectives, and should consult its own legal advisors in determining whether and to what extent the Class A-1 notes are a legal investment or are subject to restrictions on investment.  For more information about Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, you should read “Risk Factors – Eligibility of the Class A-1 notes under Rule 2a-7.”

TAX CONSIDERATIONS

 

General

 

Below is a description of the anticipated material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the notes offered by this prospectus.  This description is based on current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, existing and proposed Treasury regulations, current administrative rulings, judicial decisions and other authorities all of which are subject to change, perhaps with retroactive effect.  There are no cases or Internal Revenue Service, or “IRS,” rulings on similar transactions involving debt issued by a trust with terms similar to those of the notes.  It is not certain that the IRS will not challenge the conclusions reached in this description, and no ruling from the IRS has been or will be sought on any of the issues described below.  Furthermore, legislative, judicial or administrative changes may occur, perhaps with retroactive effect, which could affect the accuracy of the statements and conclusions in this prospectus.

 

This description does not deal with all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to the holders of notes in light of their personal investment circumstances nor, except for specific limited descriptions of particular topics, to noteholders subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, such as non-U.S. persons, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, financial institutions or broker dealers, taxpayers subject to the alternative minimum tax, holders that will hold the notes as part of a hedge, straddle, appreciated financial position or conversion transaction and holders that will hold the notes as other than capital assets.  This information is directed only to prospective noteholders who:

 

·      purchase notes in the initial distribution of the notes,

 

·      are citizens or residents of the United States, and

 

·      hold the notes as “capital assets” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code.

 

As used in this section of this prospectus, the term “U.S. noteholder” means a beneficial owner of a note that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

 

·      a citizen or resident of the United States,

 

·      a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia,

 

·      an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source, or

 

·      a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or that has made a valid election under Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

 

The term “U.S. noteholder” also includes a noteholder whose income or gain on its investment in a note is effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business.  As used in this section of the prospectus, the term “non-U.S. noteholder” means a beneficial owner of a note other than a U.S. noteholder and other than a partnership.

 

If a partnership (including any entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) owns a note, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership.  Partners are encouraged to consult their tax advisors as to the particular U.S. federal income tax consequences to them.

Prospective noteholders are encouraged to consult with their tax advisors as to the U.S. federal, state and local, foreign and other tax consequences to them of the purchase, ownership and disposition of notes.

 

Tax Characterization of Trust

 

In the opinion of Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP, tax counsel to the depositor, assuming compliance with the terms of the trust agreement and transaction documents, the trust will not be an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

 

If the IRS successfully asserted that one or more classes of notes did not represent debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the class or classes of notes might be treated as equity interests in the trust.  If so treated, the trust might be treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation with potentially adverse tax consequences, including not being able to reduce its taxable income by deductions for interest expense on notes recharacterized as equity.  Alternatively, the trust could be treated as a publicly traded partnership that would not be taxable as a corporation because it would satisfy a safe harbor.  Nonetheless, treatment of notes as equity interests in a publicly traded partnership could have adverse tax consequences to some noteholders.  For example, income to some tax-exempt entities (including pension funds) would be “unrelated business taxable income,” income to non-U.S. noteholders may be subject to U.S. withholding tax and U.S. tax return filing requirements, and individual holders might be subject to some limitations on their ability to deduct their share of trust expenses.

 

Tax Characterization and Treatment of Notes

 

Characterization as Debt.  In the opinion of Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP, the offered notes will be treated as debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent they are treated as beneficially owned by a person other than the sponsor or its affiliates for such purposes.  The depositor, the servicer, the indenture trustee and each noteholder, by acquiring an interest in a note, will agree to treat the notes as debt for U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes.  Neither the opinion of tax counsel nor the agreement to treat the notes as debt is binding on the IRS or the courts.

 

For a description of the potential U.S. federal income tax consequences to noteholders if the IRS were successful in challenging the characterization of the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, you should read “— Tax Characterization of Trust” above.

 

Treatment of Stated Interest.  The stated interest on a note that constitutes qualified stated interest will be taxable to a holder as ordinary income when received or accrued according to the holder’s method of tax accounting.  For stated interest to be qualified stated interest it must be payable at least annually and reasonable remedies must exist to compel timely payment or the terms of the instrument must make late payment or non-payment sufficiently remote for purposes of the original issue discount, or “OID,” rules.  Although stated interest on the Class B and Class C notes can be deferred under certain circumstances, the trust intends to treat the potential deferral as sufficiently remote for purposes of the OID rules and treat the stated interest on the notes as qualified stated interest.

 

Original Issue Discount.  A holder of notes treated as issued with OID must include OID in its gross income as ordinary interest income as it accrues, regardless of the holder’s regular method of accounting, generally under a constant yield method.  The trust does not anticipate issuing the notes with any OID.

 

Changes in U.S. Federal Tax Laws.  Certain provisions in the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” could impact the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the notes for certain noteholders.  Under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, a noteholder that uses an accrual method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes generally would be required to include certain amounts in income no later than the time those amounts are reflected on certain financial statements of the holder. The application of this rule may require the accrual of income earlier than would be the case under the general tax rules described under “— Tax Characterization and Treatment of Notes” above, although the precise application of this rule is unclear at

this time.  However, the IRS has recently issued proposed Treasury regulations, on which taxpayers may rely, stating that OID and market discount will not be subject to these special timing rules.  Further, it is unclear at this time the specific impact that other provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act could have on noteholders.

 

Disposition of Notes.  If a noteholder sells or disposes of a note, the holder will recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale or disposition and the holder’s adjusted tax basis in the note.  The holder’s adjusted tax basis will equal the holder’s cost for the note, increased by any OID and market discount previously included by the noteholder in income on the note and decreased by any bond premium previously amortized and any payments of principal and OID previously received by the noteholder on the note.  Any gain or loss on sale or disposition will be capital gain or loss if the note was held as a capital asset, except for gain representing accrued interest or accrued market discount not previously included in income.  Capital gain or loss will be long-term if the note was held by the holder for more than one year and otherwise will be short-term.

 

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding.  The indenture trustee will be required to report annually to the IRS, and to each noteholder of record, the amount of interest paid on the notes, and any amount of interest withheld for U.S. federal income taxes, except as to exempt holders (generally, corporations, tax-exempt organizations, qualified pension and profit-sharing trusts, individual retirement accounts, or nonresident aliens who provide certification as to their status).  Each holder who is not an exempt holder will be required to provide to the indenture trustee, under penalties of perjury, a certificate containing the holder’s name, address, correct federal taxpayer identification number and a statement that the holder is not subject to backup withholding.  Should a holder fail to provide the required certification, the indenture trustee will be required to withhold the tax from interest payable to the holder and pay the withheld amount to the IRS.

 

Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Noteholders.  Subject to the application of the FATCA withholding tax described in “—Payments to Foreign Financial Institutions and Certain Other Non-U.S. Entities” below, a non-U.S. noteholder who is an individual or corporation (or a person treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holding the notes on its own behalf and not in connection with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on payments of principal, premium, interest or OID on a note, unless the non-U.S. noteholder is a direct or indirect 10% or greater shareholder of the trust or a controlled foreign corporation related to the trust.  To qualify for the exemption from taxation, the withholding agent must have received a signed statement from the individual or corporation that:

 

·      is signed under penalties of perjury by the beneficial owner of the note,

 

·      certifies that the beneficial owner is not a U.S. noteholder, and

 

·      provides the beneficial owner’s name and address.

 

A “withholding agent” is the last U.S. payor (or a non-U.S. payor who is a qualified intermediary, U.S. branch of a foreign person, or withholding foreign partnership) in the chain of payment before payment to a non-U.S. noteholder (which itself is not a withholding agent).  Generally, this statement is made on an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any substitute form), which generally is effective for the remainder of the year of signature plus three full calendar years unless a change in circumstances makes any information on the form incorrect.  Under some circumstances, an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E can remain effective indefinitely.  The beneficial owner must inform the withholding agent within 30 days of a change in circumstances that makes any information on the form incorrect and furnish a new IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E to the withholding agent.

 

A non-U.S. noteholder who is not an individual or corporation (or a person treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holding the notes on its own behalf may have substantially increased reporting requirements and is encouraged to consult its tax advisor.

 

134


Table of Contents

 

A non-U.S. noteholder whose income on its investment in a note is effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business would generally be taxed as if the holder was a U.S. noteholder.

 

Some securities clearing organizations, and other entities who are not beneficial owners, may be able to provide the signed statement to the withholding agent.  However, in this case, the signed statement may require a copy of the beneficial owner’s IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or the substitute form).

 

Any capital gain realized on the sale, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of a note by a non-U.S. noteholder will be exempt from U.S. federal income and withholding tax so long as:

 

·      the gain is not effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States by the non-U.S. noteholder, and

 

·      in the case of a foreign individual, the non-U.S. noteholder is not present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year.

 

If the interest, gain or income on a note held by a non-U.S. noteholder is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States by the non-U.S. noteholder, the holder, although exempt from the withholding tax described above if an appropriate statement is furnished, will generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the interest, gain or income at regular federal income tax rates.  In addition, if the non-U.S. noteholder is a foreign corporation, it may be subject to a branch profits tax equal to 30 percent of its “effectively connected earnings and profits” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code for the taxable year, unless it qualifies for a lower rate under a tax treaty.

 

Payments to Foreign Financial Institutions and Certain Other Non-U.S. EntitiesA 30% withholding tax generally will apply to payments of interest that are made to foreign financial institutions and certain non-financial foreign entities.  Withholding tax, imposed under sections 1471 through 1474 of the Internal Revenue Code, or “FATCA,” generally will not apply where payments are made to (i) a foreign financial institution that enters into an agreement with the IRS to, among other requirements, undertake to identify accounts held by certain U.S. persons or U.S.-owned foreign entities, report annually certain information about those accounts and withhold tax as may be required by that agreement, or (ii) a non-financial foreign entity that certifies it does not have substantial U.S. owners or furnishes identifying information about each substantial U.S. owner.  Alternative requirements may apply to foreign entities subject to an intergovernmental agreement for the implementation of FATCA.  The FATCA withholding tax applies regardless of whether a payment would be exempt from U.S. non-resident withholding tax (such as under the portfolio interest exemption or as capital gain) and regardless of whether a foreign financial institution is the beneficial owner of a payment.  Prospective noteholders should consult their own tax advisors about the application and requirements of information reporting and withholding under FATCA and any intergovernmental agreement for the implementation of FATCA.

 

State and Local Tax

 

Because of the variation in the tax laws of each state and locality, it is impossible to predict the tax classification of the trust or the tax consequences to the trust or to holders of notes in all of the state and local taxing jurisdictions in which they may be subject to tax.  Prospective noteholders are encouraged to consult their tax advisors about state and local taxation of the trust and state and local tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of notes.

 

ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

 

General Investment Considerations

 

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, or “ERISA,” and the Internal Revenue Code impose obligations and requirements on employee benefit plans and other retirement plans and arrangements (such as individual retirement accounts and Keogh plans) that are subject to Title I of

 

135


Table of Contents

 

ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code, referred to as “plans,” and some entities (including insurance company general accounts) whose assets are deemed to include assets of plans, and on persons who are fiduciaries of plans.  Any person who exercises authority or control over the management or disposition of a plan’s assets or who gives investment advice for a fee or other compensation regarding a plan is considered to be a fiduciary of that plan, or a “plan fiduciary.”  Below is a description of the anticipated consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the notes offered by this prospectus by a plan or a fiduciary of that plan.  Under ERISA’s general fiduciary standards, before investing in the notes, a plan fiduciary should determine, among other factors:

 

·      whether the investment is permitted under the plan’s governing documents,

 

·      whether the fiduciary has the authority to make the investment,

 

·      whether the investment is consistent with the plan’s funding objectives,

 

·      the tax effects of the investment,

 

·      whether under the general fiduciary standards of investment prudence and diversification an investment in the notes is appropriate for the plan, taking into account the overall investment policy of the plan and the composition of the plan’s investment portfolio, and

 

·      whether the investment is prudent considering the factors described in this prospectus.

 

In addition, ERISA and Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code prohibit a broad range of transactions involving assets of a plan and persons who are “parties in interest” under ERISA or “disqualified persons” under Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code.  A violation of these rules may result in the imposition of significant excise taxes and other liabilities.

 

Subject to the considerations described below, plans generally may purchase the notes.  A fiduciary of a plan should carefully review with its legal and other advisors whether the purchase, holding or disposition of any notes could give rise to a transaction prohibited or impermissible under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code, and should consider the restrictions on the purchase, holding and/or disposition of the notes.  Unless otherwise stated, references to the purchase, holding and disposition of the notes in these sections also refer to the purchase, holding and disposition of an interest or participation in the notes.

 

Prohibited Transactions

 

Whether or not an investment in the notes will give rise to a transaction prohibited or impermissible under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code will depend on whether the assets of the trust will be deemed to be “plan assets” of a plan investing in notes issued by the trust.  Under a regulation issued by the U.S. Department of Labor, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA, or the “plan assets regulation,” a plan’s assets may be deemed to include an interest in the assets of the trust if the plan acquires an “equity interest” in the trust and none of the exceptions in the plan assets regulation are applicable.  In general, an “equity interest” is defined under the plan assets regulation as any interest in an entity other than an instrument which is treated as indebtedness under local law and which has no substantial equity features.

 

The depositor believes that the notes will be treated as indebtedness without substantial equity features for purposes of the plan assets regulation.  This assessment is based on the traditional debt features of the notes, including the reasonable expectation of purchasers of the notes that the notes will be repaid when due, traditional default remedies, and on the absence of conversion rights, warrants and other typical equity features.

 

136


Table of Contents

 

Without regard to whether the notes are treated as debt for ERISA purposes, the purchase, holding and disposition of the notes by or on behalf of a plan could be considered to give rise to a direct or indirect prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code if the trust, the owner trustee, the indenture trustee, any underwriter or any of their affiliates, including Ford Credit, is or becomes a “party in interest” under ERISA or a “disqualified person” under Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code for the plan.  In this case, exemptions from the prohibited transaction rules could apply to the purchase, holding and disposition of notes by or on behalf of a plan depending on the type and circumstances of the plan fiduciary making the decision to purchase a note and the relationship of the party in interest to the plan or investor using plan assets, collectively, the “plan investor.”  Included among these exemptions are:

 

·      prohibited transaction class exemption 84-14, regarding transactions effected by qualified professional asset managers,

 

·      prohibited transaction class exemption 90-1, regarding transactions entered into by insurance company pooled separate accounts,

 

·      prohibited transaction class exemption 91-38, regarding transactions entered into by bank collective investment funds,

 

·      prohibited transaction class exemption 95-60, regarding transactions entered into by insurance company general accounts, and

 

·      prohibited transaction class exemption 96-23, regarding transactions effected by in-house asset managers.

 

In addition, Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA and Section 4975(d)(20) of the Internal Revenue Code provide an exemption for some transactions between a plan and a person that is a party in interest or disqualified person for a plan solely by reason of providing services to the plan or having a relationship with a service provider (other than a party in interest or a disqualified person that is, or is an affiliate of, a fiduciary for the assets of the plan involved in the transaction), if the plan pays no more than, and receives no less than, adequate consideration in connection with the transaction.  However, even if the conditions in one or more of these exemptions are met, the scope of relief may not necessarily cover all acts that might be construed as prohibited transactions.

 

Due to the possibility that the sponsor, the trust, the underwriters or any of their affiliates, or the “transaction parties,” may receive certain benefits in connection with the sale or holding of the notes, the purchase of the notes using plan assets over which any of the transaction parties has investment authority, renders investment advice to for a fee with respect to the plan assets or is the employer or other sponsor of the plan, may be deemed to be a violation of Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code.  Accordingly, the notes may not be purchased using plan assets if any of the transaction parties has investment authority, renders investment advice to for a fee with respect to the plan assets or is the employer or other sponsor of the plan, unless an applicable prohibited transaction exemption is available to cover the purchase or holding of the notes or the transaction is not otherwise prohibited.

 

Any plan investor that purchases, holds or disposes of the notes will be deemed to have represented that its purchase, holding or disposition of the notes is not and will not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code due to the applicability of a statutory or administrative exemption from the prohibited transaction rules.

 

Benefit Plans Not Subject to ERISA or Internal Revenue Code

 

Some employee benefit plans, such as governmental plans, foreign plans and some church plans (each as defined or described in ERISA) are not subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA

 

137


Table of Contents

 

or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code.  However, these plans may be subject to other federal, state, local or non-U.S. laws or regulations that are substantially similar to Part 4 of Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code.  In addition, any of these plans that are qualified and exempt from taxation under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code are subject to the prohibited transaction rules in Section 503 of the Internal Revenue Code.  Each of these plans that are subject to laws or regulations substantially similar to Part 4 of Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code, and each person acting on behalf of or investing the assets of such a plan, that purchases, holds or disposes of notes will be deemed to have represented that its purchase, holding and disposition of the notes is not and will not result in a non-exempt violation of these similar laws or regulations.

Each class of notes is a new issue of securities with no established trading market.  The underwriters have advised the depositor that they intend to make a market in the classes of the offered notes purchased by them but they are not obligated to do so and may discontinue market-making at any time without notice.  It is not certain that a secondary market for the notes will develop, that it will continue or that it will provide sufficient liquidity.  If a secondary market for the notes does develop, it might end at any time or it might not be sufficiently liquid to allow noteholders to resell any of the notes.

 

In connection with the sale of the notes, the underwriters may, to the extent permitted by Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, engage in:

 

·      over-allotments, in which members of the selling syndicate sell more notes than the seller actually sold to the syndicate, creating a syndicate short position,

 

·      stabilizing transactions, in which purchases and sales of the notes may be made by the members of the selling syndicate at prices that do not exceed a stated maximum,

 

·      syndicate covering transactions, in which members of the selling syndicate purchase the notes in the open market after the distribution is completed to cover syndicate short positions, and

 

·      penalty bids, by which underwriters reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when any of the notes originally sold by that syndicate member are purchased in a syndicate covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions.

 

These stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids may cause the prices of the notes to be higher than they would otherwise be.  These transactions, if begun, may be discontinued at any time.

 

The depositor and Ford Credit will indemnify the underwriters against specific liabilities, including liabilities under the federal securities laws, or contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make for those liabilities.

 

The trust may invest the funds in its bank accounts in obligations issued by the underwriters or their affiliates.

 

In the ordinary course of their businesses, the underwriters and their affiliates have engaged and may engage in various financial advisory, investment banking and commercial banking transactions with the sponsor, the depositor, the servicer and their affiliates.

 

On request by a noteholder who received an electronic prospectus from an underwriter within the period during which there is an obligation to deliver a prospectus, the underwriter will promptly deliver, without charge, a paper copy of this prospectus.

·      it has only communicated or caused to be communicated and will only communicate or cause to be communicated an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (as amended), or the “FSMA”) received by it in connection with the issue or sale of any offered notes in circumstances in which Section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the trust or the depositors, and

 

·      it has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the FSMA for anything done by it in relation to any offered notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom.

 

European Economic Area and United Kingdom

 

Each underwriter severally, but not jointly, has represented and agreed that it has not offered, sold or otherwise made available and will not offer, sell or otherwise make available any offered notes which are the subject of this prospectus to any retail investor in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom. For the purposes of this provision:

 

·      the expression “retail investor” means a person who is one (or more) of the following:

 

¾ a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II, or

 

¾ a customer within the meaning of the Insurance Distribution Directive, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II, or

 

¾ not a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Regulation, and

 

·      the expression “offer” includes the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the offered notes to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for the offered notes.

 

European Union Capital Requirements

 

None of the sponsor, the depositor, the servicer, the trust or any underwriter makes any representation or agreement that the offered notes or this securitization transaction complies or will comply with the requirements of (a) Articles 405-410 of the Capital Requirements Regulation 575/2013 (as supplemented by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 625/2014 and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 602/2014) nor with the requirements of Chapter 2 of Regulation (EU) 2017/2401 and 2017/2402, (b) Article 17 of the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive 2011/61/EU (as supplemented by Chapter III, Section 5, of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 231/2013 of 19 December 2012, and as replaced by Article 41 of Regulation (EU) 2017/2402) or (c) Article 135(2) of the European Union Solvency II Directive 2009/138/EC (as supplemented by Articles 254-257 of the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No. 2015/35, and as replaced by Article 39 of Regulation (EU) 2017/2402).

 

Notwithstanding that the United Kingdom is no longer a member of the European Union, the European Union capital requirements, as provided above, continue to apply in the United Kingdom for the duration of a transition period (which is expected to end on December 31, 2020, but may be extended).  It is currently expected that the European Union capital requirements will cease to be applicable in the United Kingdom at the end of this transition period, and certain United Kingdom legislation will take effect.  None of the sponsor, the depositor, the servicer, the trust or any underwriter intends to take any action in connection with any such United Kingdom legislation.

Annex A

 

STATIC POOL INFORMATION — PRIOR SECURITIZED POOLS

 

This Annex contains static pool information about prior pools of retail installment sale contracts securitized by Ford Credit.  The information in this Annex consists of summary information about the original characteristics of the prior securitized pools, cumulative losses, prepayments and delinquency data for the prior securitized pools and graphical presentation of the data.  The original characteristics of the prior securitized pools may differ somewhat from each other and from the characteristics of the pool of receivables in the securitization transaction described in the prospectus.  This is because Ford Credit’s portfolio of retail installment sale contracts, from which the securitized pools are selected, changes over time in response to changing economic and market conditions, although such changes generally occur gradually.  Over the period covered by the prior securitized pools, each successive prior securitized pool has generally exhibited higher FICO® scores, higher loan-to-value ratios and higher percentages of contracts with original terms greater than 60 months, subvened-APR contracts and commercial use contracts, although such changes between successive pools have not been significant.  As a result, prior securitized pools are generally comparable to the pool of receivables in the securitization transaction described in the prospectus, however, the oldest prior securitized pools generally have the largest differences in characteristics to the pool of receivables in the securitization transaction described in the prospectus.

 

Based on Ford Credit’s experience, the characteristics that are expected to most significantly influence the performance of a securitized pool of retail installment sale contracts are the FICO® scores, loan-to-value ratios and payment-to-income ratios of the contracts and whether the pool includes contracts with original terms greater than 60 months, subvened-APR contracts and commercial use contracts.  A securitized pool with lower FICO® scores or with higher loan-to-value and payment-to-income ratios and a higher percentage of longer term contracts may perform worse comparatively.  A securitized pool with higher percentages of subvened-APR contracts and commercial use contracts may perform better comparatively.  However, despite the differences in these characteristics among the prior securitized pools, the performance of the related securitization transactions has been generally consistent over time, and any difference in performance in the pool of receivables in the securitization transaction described in the prospectus compared to prior securitized pools may be more influenced by general macroeconomic conditions than differences in these characteristics.  In addition, while the historical loss performance of commercial use contracts has been comparatively better than for personal use contracts, commercial use obligors are generally small businesses or self-employed and may experience more severe loss performance in an economic or industry specific downturn.

 

In addition, although the selection criteria used for the retail installment sale contracts in the prior securitized pools have changed over time to accommodate new financing products, increased vehicle pricing and changes in securitization market practices, these changes do not diminish the general comparability of the prior securitized pools to the pool of receivables in the securitization transaction described in the prospectus.  Losses, prepayments and delinquencies for the pool of receivables in the securitization transaction described in the prospectus may differ from the information shown in this Annex for prior securitized pools.

 

The following footnotes are applicable to the static pool information for each of the prior securitized pools included in this Annex:

 

(1)              Weighted averages are weighted by the principal balance of each receivable on the cutoff date for the prior securitized pool.

 

(2)              Percentage of initial pool balance.

 

(3)              The weighted average life of the receivables is calculated by (a) multiplying the scheduled principal payments by the number of months from the cutoff date, (b) adding the results, (c) dividing the sum by 12 and (d) dividing the result by the initial pool balance, and based on the assumption that all payments are due on the first day of the month, all receivables pay as scheduled, starting one month from the cutoff date, with no delays, defaults or prepayments.

 

A-1


Table of Contents

 

(4)              Excludes receivables with primary obligors who do not have FICO® scores because they (a) are not individuals or (b) are individuals with minimal or no recent credit history.

 

(5)              Represents receivables with primary obligors that use the financed vehicles for personal use and do not have FICO® scores because they (a) are not individuals or (b) are individuals with minimal or no recent credit history.

 

(6)              The LTV for a receivable is the original amount financed divided by the wholesale value of the vehicle.

 

(7)              The PTI for a receivable is the monthly payment divided by the monthly combined income of the obligor and any co-obligor.  Excludes commercial use receivables with business entities as the primary obligor, receivables where the applicant stated no income or negligible income in the credit application and receivables where Ford Credit has determined that the PTI is unreliable.

 

(8)              Subvened-APR Receivables are receivables originated under a Ford-sponsored low-APR marketing program.

 

(9)              Commercial Use Receivables are receivables with customers who use the financed vehicle for commercial purposes.  These customers may be either business entities or individuals.

 

(10)       Car includes sedans, hatchbacks and coupes.  Light truck includes vans, minivans and light pick-up trucks.  Utility includes wagons, SUVs and cross-overs.  Other includes primarily non-Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles which Ford Credit does not categorize.

 

(11)       Based on the billing addresses of the obligors on the cutoff date for the prior securitized pool.

 

(12)       End-of-Month Pool Balance is the aggregate principal balance of the receivables in the securitization transaction at the end of the month, after applying all payments received from obligors, liquidation proceeds, purchase amounts to be deposited by the servicer, the sponsor or the depositor, and all realized losses.

 

(13)       Cumulative Net Losses are the aggregate principal balance of all receivables that the servicer determined to be uncollectible less any liquidation proceeds (primarily auction proceeds) and other recoveries.  Net Losses include all external costs for repossession and disposition of the financed vehicle and continued collection efforts after charge off.

 

(14)       Prepayments are the aggregate principal balance of all receivables prepaid in full during the month.

 

(15)       The period of delinquency is the number of days that more than $49.99 of a scheduled payment is past due.  The dollar amounts represent the aggregate outstanding principal balances of the delinquent receivables as of the end of the month.  The percentages represent the aggregate outstanding principal balances of the delinquent receivables as of the end of the month as a percentage of the End-of-Month Pool Balance.  Delinquencies include receivables with bankrupt obligors and exclude receivables in repossession status or that have been charged off by the servicer.

 

(16)       Pool Factor represents the End-of-Month Pool Balance, as a percentage of the Initial Pool Balance.  The scheduled monthly pool factor assumes receipt of scheduled receivable principal payments as of the cutoff date, a 0% ABS rate and that the servicer does not exercise its clean-up call option.  The Initial pool factor assumption assumes receipt of scheduled and unscheduled receivable principal payments as of the cutoff date, at an assumed ABS rate and that the servicer will exercise its clean-up call option on the first payment date that the option is available.  A change in the actual pool factor reflects both scheduled and unscheduled principal payments and other reductions in the aggregate principal balance of the receivables.  For more information about the ABS rate, you should read “Maturity and Prepayment Considerations – Weighted Average Life.”
