Item 1117 of Regulation AB: Legal proceedings.

During the last several years as regulatory interest in credit card network pricing to merchants or terms of merchant rules and contracts has increased, American Express Company and its subsidiaries (“American Express”) have responded to many inquiries from banking and competition authorities throughout the world.

In 2010, the DOJ, along with Attorneys General from Arizona, Connecticut, Hawaii (Hawaii has since withdrawn its claim), Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, Ohio, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Vermont filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York against American Express, MasterCard International Incorporated and Visa, Inc., alleging a violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act. The complaint alleges that the defendants’ policies prohibiting merchants from steering a customer to use another network’s card, another type of card or another method of payment (“anti-steering” and “non-discrimination” rules and contractual provisions) violate the antitrust laws. The complaint seeks a judgment permanently enjoining the defendants from enforcing their anti-steering and non-discrimination rules and contractual provisions. The complaint does not seek monetary damages.

The DOJ matter was coordinated pre-trial with individual and putative class actions pending in the Eastern District of New York against American Express brought by merchants alleging that the “anti-steering” provisions in its merchant acceptance agreements with the plaintiffs violate federal antitrust laws. As alleged by the plaintiffs, these provisions prevent merchants from steering consumers or offering consumers incentives to use alternative forms of payment when consumers wish to use an American Express-branded card. Plaintiffs seek damages and injunctive relief. Arbitration proceedings raising similar claims also have been filed.

In July 2004, American Express was named as a defendant in a putative class action captioned The Marcus Corporation v. American Express Company, et al., in which the plaintiffs allege an unlawful antitrust tying arrangement between certain of American Express’ charge cards and credit cards in violation of various state and federal laws. The plaintiffs in these actions seek injunctive relief and an unspecified amount of damages.

 

2


In December 2013, American Express announced a proposed settlement of the Marcus case and the putative class actions challenging American Express’ “anti-steering” or non-discrimination provisions. The settlement, which provides for certain injunctive relief for the proposed classes, received preliminary approval in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York. The final approval hearing was held on September 17, 2014 and American Express is awaiting decision.

A non-jury trial in the DOJ matter concluded on August 18, 2014. Closing arguments were held on October 9, 2014 following submission of post-trial proposed findings and briefs. On February 19, 2015, the trial court found that the challenged provisions were anticompetitive and will now determine the scope of the remedy when it enters judgment in the case. American Express intends to vigorously pursue an appeal of the decision and judgment. A trial date for the individual merchant actions has not been set. Defendants’ motion for summary judgment in the individual merchant actions is pending.

In July 2004, a purported class action complaint, Ross, et al. v. American Express Company, American Express Travel Related Services and American Express Centurion Bank, was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York alleging that American Express conspired with Visa, MasterCard and Diners Club in the setting of foreign currency conversion rates and in the inclusion of arbitration clauses in certain of their cardholder agreements. The suit seeks injunctive relief and unspecified damages. The class is defined as “all Visa, MasterCard and Diners Club general-purpose cardholders who used cards issued by any of the MDL Defendant Banks.” American Express Card Members are not part of the class. The settlement of the claims asserted on behalf of the damage class concerning foreign currency conversion rates was approved in 2012. On April 10, 2014, following a trial of the claims asserted by the injunction class concerning cardholder arbitration clauses, the Court dismissed plaintiffs’ claims and granted judgment in favor of American Express. Plaintiffs have appealed.

In October 2009, a putative class action, captioned Lopez, et al. v. American Express Bank, FSB and American Express Centurion Bank, was filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. The amended complaint sought to certify a class of California American Express Card Members whose interest rates were changed from fixed to variable in or around August 2009 or otherwise increased. On August 20, 2014, plaintiffs filed an amended nationwide complaint and an unopposed motion for preliminary approval of a settlement of the claims alleged in that complaint. The settlement provides for certain relief to class members, attorneys’ fees and costs of up to $6 million. On September 22, 2014, the motion for preliminary approval was denied without prejudice to renew. The parties are responding to the Court’s questions regarding the class notice and claims processes and the request for preliminary approval will be renewed.

Information required by Item 1119 of Regulation AB has been omitted from this report on Form 10-K in reliance on the Instruction to Item 1119.

Item 1122 of Regulation AB: Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria.

Each of American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. (“TRS”) (for itself and on behalf of its wholly owned subsidiaries Amex Card Services Company (“ACSC”), American Express Centurion Bank and American Express Bank, FSB), TransCentra, Inc. (formerly known as Regulus Group LLC) (“TransCentra”) (for itself and its wholly owned subsidiaries), and The Bank of New York Mellon (each, a “Servicing Participant”) has been identified by the registrant as a party participating in the servicing function with respect to the pool assets held by the American Express Issuance Trust II for the period covered by this Form 10-K. Each of the Servicing Participants has completed a report on an assessment of compliance with the servicing criteria applicable to such Servicing Participant (each, a “Report on Assessment”) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014, which Reports on Assessment are attached as exhibits to this Form 10-K. In addition, each of the Servicing Participants has provided an attestation report (each, an “Attestation Report”) by a registered independent public accounting firm regarding its related Report on Assessment. Each Attestation Report is attached as an exhibit to this Form 10-K.

Vendors

A Servicing Participant may engage one or more vendors, who are not considered servicers for purposes of Regulation AB, to perform specific and limited, or scripted activities that address all or a portion of one or more servicing criteria applicable to such Servicing Participant. In general in these cases, the Servicing Participant has instituted policies and procedures to monitor whether such vendors’ activities comply in all material respects with such servicing criteria, and may elect to take responsibility for assessing compliance with the servicing criteria applicable to such vendors’ activities in such Servicing Participant’s Report on Assessment.

 

4


Where the Servicing Participant has not instituted such policies and procedures, or where the Servicing Participant does not otherwise elect to take responsibility for assessing its vendors’ activities, the vendor is itself treated as a Servicing Participant and is required to provide its own Report on Assessment and related Attestation Report.

Exceptions

No Report on Assessment or related Attestation Report has identified any material instance of noncompliance with the servicing criteria identified in such Report on Assessment as applicable to the related Servicing Participant. In addition, no Report on Assessment or related Attestation Report has identified any material deficiency in such Servicing Participant’s policies and procedures to monitor vendor compliance.

Platform Level Reports

Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) require that each Servicing Participant complete a Report on Assessment at a “platform” level, meaning that the transactions covered by the Report on Assessment should include all asset-backed securities transactions involving such Servicing Participant that are backed by the same asset type. During 2014, TRS’ proprietary facilities conducted paper payment remittance processing services and performed billing dispute services. TransCentra also performed paper payment remittance processing services at three locations in the United States. As a remittance processor, TransCentra is responsible for, among other services, transmitting payment information to TRS, which TRS in turn uses to update its account obligor records. In its Report on Assessment attached as Exhibit 33.2 to this Form 10-K, TransCentra defines its platform to include (i) remittance processing services it provides to customers who are issuers or servicers of asset-backed securities transactions and (ii) who have requested confirmation of TransCentra’s compliance in connection with loan and/or receivables portfolios that include pool assets for asset backed securities transactions. In addition, eFunds Corporation (“eFunds”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Fidelity National Information Services, Inc., also performs billing dispute services at its Gurgaon and Mumbai, India sites. Within guidelines prescribed by TRS, eFunds is responsible for all aspects of billing disputes, from front end capture of information to the resolution of disputes between cardmembers and merchants. The Bank of New York Mellon is Indenture Trustee of the Trust. In its Report on Assessment attached as Exhibit 33.3 to this Form 10-K, The Bank of New York Mellon defines its platform to include publicly issued (i.e., transaction-level reporting initially required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) asset-backed securities issued on or after January 1, 2006 (and like-kind transactions issued prior to January 1, 2006), that are subject to Regulation AB for which The Bank of New York Mellon provides trustee, securities administration, paying agent or custodial services, as defined and to the extent applicable in the transaction agreements, other than residential mortgage-backed securities and other mortgage-related asset-backed securities.

None of TRS or the Trust is an affiliate of TransCentra or The Bank of New York Mellon.

Item 1123 of Regulation AB: Servicer Compliance Statement.

Each of TRS, ACSC, American Express Centurion Bank, American Express Bank, FSB and TransCentra has been identified by the registrant as a servicer or subservicer with respect to the pool assets held by the Trust for the period covered by this Form 10-K. With the exception of ACSC, each of them has provided a Statement of Compliance for the period covered by this Form 10-K (a “Compliance Statement”), in each case signed by an authorized officer thereof. Each Compliance Statement is attached as an exhibit to this Form 10-K. Effective January 1, 2015, ACSC merged into TRS. Therefore, the Compliance Statement provided by TRS and the review and certification described therein encompass the servicing procedures performed by ACSC during the period covered by this Form 10-K.

Report on Assessment of Compliance with Regulation AB Servicing Criteria

 

1. Pursuant to Subpart 229.1100 - Asset Backed Securities, 17 C.F.R. §§229.1100-229.1123 (“Regulation AB”), TransCentra, Inc. for itself and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (individually and collectively “TransCentra”), is responsible for assessing its compliance with the servicing criteria applicable to the remittance processing services it provides to customers who are issuers or servicers of asset backed securities transactions and who have requested confirmation of TransCentra’s compliance in connection with loan and/or receivables portfolios that include pool assets for asset backed securities transactions (the “Platform”). Remittance processing is a service whereby check payments that are remitted by mail to a post office box are collected, processed through a highly automated data capture system, and prepared for deposit to a bank account held by the beneficiary of the payment.

 

2. The servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB were used in TransCentra’s assessment of compliance. TransCentra has concluded that the servicing criteria set forth in Items 1122(d)(2)(i) and 1122(d)(4)(iv) of Regulation AB are applicable to the servicing activities it performs with respect to the Platform (such criteria the “Applicable Servicing Criteria”). TransCentra has concluded that the remainder of the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB are inapplicable to the activities it performs with respect to the Platform because TransCentra does not participate in the servicing activities referenced by such servicing criteria.

 

3. As of and for the year ended December 31, 2014, TransCentra has complied in all material respects with the Applicable Servicing Criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB.

 

4. Porter Keadle Moore LLC, a registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report on TransCentra’s assessment of compliance with the Applicable Servicing Criteria as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014. A copy of that attestation report is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

ASSERTION OF COMPLIANCE WITH

APPLICABLE SERVICING CRITERIA

The Bank of New York Mellon (formerly The Bank of New York), BNY Mellon Trust of Delaware (formerly BNYM (Delaware)) and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (formerly The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A.), (collectively, the “Company”) provide this platform-level assessment of compliance with the servicing criteria specified in Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Management has determined that the servicing criteria are applicable in regard to the servicing platform as of and for the period as follows:

Platform: Publicly-issued (i.e., transaction-level reporting initially required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) asset-backed securities issued on or after January 1, 2006 and like-kind transactions issued prior to January 1, 2006 that are subject to Regulation AB for which the Company provides trustee, securities administration, paying agent or custodial services, as defined and to the extent applicable in the transaction agreements, other than residential mortgage-backed securities and other mortgage-related asset-backed securities (the “Platform”).

Period: Twelve months ended December 31, 2014 (the “Period”).

Applicable Servicing Criteria: All servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d), to the extent required by the related transaction agreements as to any transaction, except as set forth in the column titled “Not Applicable To Platform” in Appendix 1 attached hereto.

With respect to servicing criterion 1122(d)(2)(vi) management has engaged a vendor to perform the activities required by the servicing criterion. Management has determined that this vendor is not considered a “servicer” as defined in Item 1101(j) of Regulation AB, and management has elected to take responsibility for assessing compliance with the servicing criterion applicable to this vendor as permitted by the SEC’s Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation (“CD&I”) 200.06, Vendor’s Engaged by Servicers (CD&I 200.06) (formerly SEC Manual Telephone Interpretation 17.06). Management has policies and procedures in place designed to provide reasonable assurance that the vendor’s activities comply in all material respects with the servicing criterion applicable to the vendor. Management is solely responsible for determining that it meets the SEC requirements to apply CD&I 200.06 for the vendor and related criterion.


With respect to the Platform as of and for the Period, the Company provides the following assessment of compliance in respect of the Applicable Servicing Criteria:

1. The Company is responsible for assessing its compliance with the Applicable Servicing Criteria.

2. The Company has assessed compliance with the Applicable Servicing Criteria including the servicing criterion for which compliance is determined based on CD&I 200.06 as described above. In performing this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Securities and Exchange Commission in paragraph (d) of Item 1122 of Regulation AB.

3. With respect to Applicable Servicing Criteria 1122(d)(2)(iii) and 1122(d)(4)(vii), there were no activities performed during the Period with respect to the Platform, because there were no occurrences of events that would require the Company to perform such activities.

4. Based on such assessment, as of and for the Period, the Company has complied, in all material respects, with the Applicable Servicing Criteria.

KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report with respect to Management’s Assertion of Compliance with the Applicable Servicing Criteria as of and for the Period.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To: Management of American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. (the “Company,” or “Asserting Party”), Servicer

We have examined management’s assertion, included in the accompanying “Certification Regarding Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria,” that American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. complied with the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation AB, as of December 31, 2014 and for the year then ended (the “Reporting Period”), for all asset-backed securities transactions backed by credit and charge card receivables issued by the American Express Credit Account Master Trust and the American Express Issuance Trust II, for which transactions the Asserting Party acted as Servicer, that were registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, where the related asset-backed securities were outstanding during the Reporting Period (the “Platform”), excluding criteria: (d)(1)(iii), (d)(1)(iv), (d)(2)(iii), (d)(2)(vi), (d)(3)(iii), (d)(4)(i), (d)(4)(x), (d)(4)(xi), (d)(4)(xii), (d)(4)(xiii) and (d)(4)(xv), which the Company has determined are not applicable to the servicing activities performed by it with respect to the Platform. As described in management’s assertion, for servicing criteria 1122(d)(4)(vi), the Company has engaged eFunds Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fidelity National Information Services, Inc., to perform the activities required by this servicing criteria. The Company has determined that this vendor is not considered a “servicer” as defined in Item 1101(j) of Regulation AB, and the Company has elected to take responsibility for assessing compliance with the servicing criteria 1122(d)(4)(vi) applicable to the vendor, as permitted by Interpretation 200.06 of the SEC Division of Corporation Finance’s interpretations of the rules adopted under Regulation AB and the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (“Interpretation 200.06”). As permitted by Interpretation 200.06, the Company has asserted that it has policies and procedures in place designed to provide reasonable assurance that the vendor’s activities comply in all material respects with the servicing criteria applicable to the vendor. The Company is solely responsible for determining that it meets the SEC requirements to apply Interpretation 200.06 for the vendor and related criteria as described in its assertion, and we performed no procedures with respect to the Company’s determination of its eligibility to use Interpretation 200.06. Management’s assertion identifies the individual asset-backed transactions and securities defined by management as constituting the Platform. Management is responsible for the Company’s compliance with the servicing criteria. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assertion based on our examination.

Our examination was conducted in accordance with attestation standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Company’s compliance with the applicable servicing criteria and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Our examination included testing of selected asset-backed transactions and securities that comprise the Platform, testing of selected servicing activities related to the Platform, and determining whether the Company processed those selected transactions and performed those selected activities in compliance with the applicable servicing criteria. Our procedures were limited to the selected transactions and servicing activities performed by the Company during the period covered by this report. Our procedures were not designed to detect noncompliance arising from errors that may have occurred prior to or subsequent to our tests that may have affected the balances or amounts calculated or reported by the Company during the period covered by this report. We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Company’s compliance with the servicing criteria.

In our opinion, management’s assertion that the Company complied with the aforementioned applicable servicing criteria as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014 for the Platform is fairly stated, in all material respects.

Our examination was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Company’s compliance with the applicable servicing criteria, including tests on a sample basis of the servicing activities related to the Platform, determining whether the Company performed those activities in compliance with the servicing criteria during the specified period and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Our procedures were limited to selected servicing activities performed by the Company during the period covered by this report and, accordingly, such samples may not have included servicing activities related to each asset-backed transaction in the Platform. Further, an examination is not designed to detect noncompliance arising from errors that may have occurred prior to the period specified above that may have affected the balances or amounts calculated or reported by the Company during the period covered by this report.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors:

The Bank of New York Mellon

BNY Mellon Trust of Delaware

The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.:

We have examined management’s assertion, included in the accompanying Management’s Assertion of Compliance, that The Bank of New York Mellon (formerly The Bank of New York), BNY Mellon Trust of Delaware (formerly BNYM (Delaware)) and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (formerly The Bank of New York Trust, Company, N.A.), (collectively, the “Company”) complied with the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation AB for the publicly-issued (i.e., transaction-level reporting initially required under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) asset-backed securities issued on or after January 1, 2006 and like-kind transactions issued prior to January 1, 2006 that are subject to Regulation AB for which the Company provides trustee, securities administration, paying agent services, or custodial services, as defined and to the extent applicable in the transaction agreements, other than residential mortgage-backed securities and other mortgage-related asset-backed securities (the “Platform”), except for servicing criteria 1122(d)(1)(iii), 1122(d)(1)(iv), 1122(d)(4)(vi), 1122(d)(4)(viii), 1122(d)(4)(x), 1122(d)(4)(xi), 1122(d)(4)(xii), 1122(d)(4)(xiii) and 1122(d)(4)(xiv), which the Company has determined are not applicable to the activities it performs with respect to the Platform, as of and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014. With respect to applicable servicing criteria 1122(d)(2)(iii) and 1122(d)(4)(vii), the Company has determined that there were no activities performed during the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 with respect to the Platform, because there were no occurrences of events that would require the Company to perform such activities. Management is responsible for the Company’s compliance with the servicing criteria. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assertion about the Company’s compliance based on our examination.

Our examination was conducted in accordance with the attestation standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Company’s compliance with the servicing criteria specified above and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Our examination included testing selected asset-backed transactions and securities that comprise the Platform, testing selected servicing activities related to the Platform, and determining whether the Company processed those selected transactions and performed those selected activities in compliance with the servicing criteria. Furthermore, our procedures were limited to the selected transactions and servicing activities performed by the Company during the period covered by this report. Our procedures were not designed to determine whether errors may have occurred either prior to or subsequent to our tests that may have affected the balances or amounts calculated or reported by the Company during the period covered by this report for the selected transactions or any other transactions. We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Company’s compliance with the servicing criteria.

As described in the Company’s Assertion of Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria, for servicing criterion 1122(d)(2)(vi), the Company has engaged a vendor to perform the activities required by this servicing criterion. The Company has determined that this vendor is not considered a “servicer” as defined in Item 1101(j) of Regulation AB, and the Company has elected to take responsibility for assessing compliance with the servicing criterion applicable to this vendor as permitted by the SEC’s Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation (“CD&I”) 200.06, Vendor’s Engaged by Servicers (CD&I 200.06) (formerly SEC Manual Telephone Interpretation 17.06). As permitted by CD&I 200.06, the Company has asserted that it has policies and procedures in place designed to provide reasonable assurance that the vendor’s activities comply in all material respects with the servicing criterion applicable to the vendor. The Company is solely responsible for determining that it meets the SEC requirements to apply CD&I 200.06 for the vendor and related criterion as described in its Assertion of Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria, and we performed no procedures with respect to the Company’s eligibility to apply CD&I 200.06.

In our opinion, management’s assertion that the Company complied with the aforementioned servicing criteria, including criterion 1122(d)(2)(vi) for which compliance is determined based on CD&I 200.06 as described above, as of and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 is fairly stated, in all material respects.
