Each of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes will be initially represented
by a temporary global note in bearer form (each, a "Temporary Global Note") without interest coupons attached.
The Temporary Global Notes will be (i) in the aggregate principal amount of EUR 349,900,000 for the Class A
Notes, (ii) in the aggregate principal amount of EUR 29,200,000 for the Class B Notes, (iii) in the aggregate principal
amount of EUR 19,500,000 for the Class C Notes and (iv) in the aggregate principal amount of EUR 34,700,000 for
the Class D Notes, respectively. Each Temporary Global Note will be exchangeable, as described herein for a
permanent global note in bearer form (each, a "Permanent Global Note", and together with the Temporary Global
Notes, the "Global Notes" and each, a "Global Note") without interest coupons attached. The Temporary Global
Notes will be exchangeable not earlier than 40 calendar days and not later than 180 calendar days after the Note
Issuance Date, upon certification of non-U.S. beneficial ownership, for interests in the Permanent Global Note. The
Global Notes representing the Class A Notes will be deposited with a common safekeeper (the "Common
Safekeeper for the Class A Notes") appointed by Euroclear System S.A./N.V. as the operator of the Euroclear
System ("Euroclear") and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme ("Clearstream Luxembourg" and together with
Euroclear, the "Clearing Systems") on or prior to the Note Issuance Date. The Common Safekeeper for the Class A
Notes will hold the Global Notes representing the Class A Notes in custody for Euroclear and Clearstream
Luxembourg. The Global Notes representing the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes,
respectively, will be deposited with a common safekeeper (the "Common Safekeeper for the Class B Notes, the
Class C Notes and the Class D Notes, respectively" and together with the Common Safekeeper for the Class A
Notes, the "Common Safekeepers" and each, a "Common Safekeeper") appointed by the Principal Paying Agent
for the operator of Euroclear and for Clearstream Luxembourg on or prior to the Note Issuance Date. The Common
Safekeeper for the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes, respectively, will hold the Global Notes
representing the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes, respectively in custody for Euroclear and
Clearstream Luxembourg and any successor in such capacity. The Notes, issued in new global note form and
represented by Global Notes, may be transferred in book-entry form only. The Notes will be issued in
denominations of EUR 100,000. The Global Notes will not be exchangeable for definitive securities. See "TERMS
AND CONDITIONS OF THE NOTES -- Form and Denomination".

The Class A Notes are intended to be held in a manner which will allow Eurosystem eligibility. This means that the
Global Notes representing the Class A Notes are intended upon issue to be deposited with one of the Clearing
Systems as Common Safekeeper for the Class A Notes and does not necessarily mean that the Class A Notes will be
recognised as eligible collateral for Eurosystem monetary policy and intra-day credit operations by the Eurosystem
either upon issue or at any or all times during their life. Such recognition will depend upon satisfaction of the
Eurosystem eligibility criteria.

Interest on the Class A Notes will accrue on the outstanding principal amount of each Class A Note at a per annum

Business Day, provided that no Payment Date with respect to the Notes will occur after all Notes have been fully
redeemed (each, a "Payment Date"). The first Payment Date of the Notes will be 21 November 2016. "Business
Day" means a day on which all relevant parts of the Trans-European Automated Real-time Gross Settlement
Express Transfer System2 ("TARGET2") are operational and on which commercial banks and foreign exchange
markets are open or required to be open for business in Cologne, Germany, Frankfurt am Main, Germany,
Wuppertal, Germany, Amsterdam, The Netherlands, London, the United Kingdom and Luxembourg. "Cut-Off
Date" means the last day of each calendar month or if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding day
which is a Business Day and, with respect to the Purchase Date, 30 September 2016. The first Cut-Off Date
following the Cut-Off Date with respect to the Purchase Date, will be 31 October 2016. See "TERMS AND
CONDITIONS OF THE NOTES -- Payments of Interest".

If any withholding or deduction for or on account of taxes should at any time apply to the Notes, payments of
interest on, and principal of, the Notes will be made subject to such withholding or deduction. The Notes will not
provide for any gross-up or other payments in the event that payments on the Notes become subject to any such
withholding or deduction on account of taxes. See "TAXATION".

Amortisation of the Notes will commence on the first Payment Date. See "TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE
NOTES -- Redemption".

The Notes will mature on the Payment Date falling in July 2027 (the "Legal Redemption Date") unless previously
redeemed in full. The Notes are expected to be redeemed on the Payment Date falling in November 2024 (the
"Scheduled Redemption Date") unless previously redeemed in full. In addition, the Notes will be subject to partial
redemption and/or optional redemption prior to the Legal Redemption Date in specific circumstances and subject to
certain conditions. See "TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE NOTES -- Redemption".

The Class A Notes are expected, on issue, to be rated by Fitch Ratings Limited ("Fitch") and Moody's Investors
Service Limited ("Moody's") and together with Fitch, the "Rating Agencies"). It is a condition of the issue of the
Class A Notes that it is assigned the ratings indicated in the above table.

Each rating of the Class A Notes by Moody's and Fitch addresses the likelihood that the Class A Noteholders will
receive all payments to which they are entitled, as described herein. The ratings of "AAA sf" is the highest rating

- 3 -






that Fitch, assigns to long-term obligations. The rating assigned by Fitch takes into consideration the characteristics
of the Relevant Receivables and the structural, legal, tax and Issuer-related aspects associated with the Class A
Notes. The rating assigned by Moody's to the Class A Notes addresses the risk of expected loss in proportion to the
initial Class Principal Amount of the Class A Notes posed to the Class A Noteholders by the Legal Maturity Date.
The rating of "Aaa (sf)" is the highest rating that Moody's assigns to long-term debt obligations. The Moody's rating
addresses only the credit risks associated with this transaction.

However, the ratings assigned to the Class A Notes do not address the possibility that the Class A Noteholders might
suffer a lower than expected yield due to prepayments or amortisation or may fail to recoup their initial investments.
The ratings assigned to the Class A Notes should be evaluated independently against similar ratings of other types of
securities. A rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or
withdrawal by the Rating Agencies at any time.

The Issuer has not requested ratings of the Class A Notes by any rating agency other than the Rating Agencies and
has not requested the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes (collectively, the "Unrated Notes") to
be rated by any rating agency; there can be no assurance, however, as to whether any rating agency other than the
Rating Agencies will rate the Class A Notes or, if it does, what rating would be assigned by such rating agency. The
ratings assigned to the Class A Notes by such other rating agency could be lower than the respective ratings
assigned by the Rating Agencies.

Under Article 405 of Regulation 2013/575/EU (the "CRR"), an institution (i.e., a credit institution or an investment
firm), other than when acting as an originator, a sponsor or original lender, shall hold the credit risk of a
securitisation position in its trading book or non-trading book only if the originator, sponsor or original lender has
explicitly disclosed to the institution that it will retain, on an ongoing basis, a material net economic interest which,
in any event, will not be less than 5 % of the aggregate nominal amount of securitised exposures. Pursuant to
Article 405 paragraph (1)(d) of the CRR, a net economic interest may be retained, inter alia, by way of retention of
a first loss tranche and, if necessary, of other tranches having the same or a more severe risk profile than the
tranches sold or transferred to investors and not maturing any earlier than the tranches sold or transferred to the
investors, so that the retention equals in total no less than 5 % of the aggregate nominal amount of the securitised
exposures.

Article 409 of the CRR requires, inter alia, that prospective investors have readily available access to all materially
relevant data on the credit quality and performance of the individual underlying exposures, cash flows and collateral
supporting the securitisation exposure as well as such information that is necessary to conduct comprehensive and
well informed stress tests on the cash flows and collateral values supporting the underlying exposures. For that
purpose, materially relevant data shall be determined pursuant to Article 409 as at the date of the securitisation and
where appropriate due to the nature of the securitisation thereafter.

Similar requirements to those set out in Article 405 et seqq. of the CRR have been implemented, are in the process
of being, are expected to be implemented or may be implemented in the future for certain other EEA or EU
regulated investors (including, without limitation, investment firms, insurance and reinsurance undertakings, certain
fund managers and funds which require authorisation under Directive 2009/65/EC on Undertakings for Collective
Investment in Transferable Securities, such requirements together with the Article 405 et seqq. of the CRR, together,
the "Risk Retention Rules"). For example, Section 5 of Chapter III or "Section 5" of the Commission Delegated
Regulation 231/2013 of 19 December 2012, as currently in effect, or "AIFMR" supplementing the Alternative
Investment Fund Managers Directive 2011/61/EU of the European Parliament and the Council of 22 July 2013 on
alternative investment fund managers or "AIFMD" establishes similar risk retention and due diligence requirements
for certain fund managers under the AIFMD. Furthermore, Article 135 of the EU directive on the taking up and
pursuit of the business of insurance and reinsurance (2009/138/EC) ("Solvency II"), as amended by Directive
2014/51/EU ("Omnibus II"), will require the imposition of similar requirements on insurers and reinsurers
authorised in the EU. Certain provisions of Solvency II had to be implemented by the member states until 31 March
2015 (but may not apply until a later date). On 5 February 2016 the European Commission adopted an implementing
regulation laying down technical information to be used by insurance companies when calculating technical
provisions and basic own funds for reporting for the period from 1 January until 30 March 2016. On 10 October
2014 the European Commission adopted a Delegated Act containing implementing rules for Solvency II which was
published in in the Official Journal on 17 January 2015, as Commission Delegated Regulation 2015/35 ("Solvency
II Implementing Regulation"), and entered into force the following day. Chapter VIII of the Solvency II
Implementing Regulation introduced risk retention and due diligence requirements which are similar (but not

- 4 -






identical) to those which apply under Article 405 of the CRR et seqq. The Seller will retain for the life of the
Transaction a material net economic interest of not less than 5 per cent. (5 %) in the Transaction in accordance with
Article 405 of the CRR, Section 5 of Chapter III or "Section 5" of the AIFMR and Article 254 of the Solvency II
Implementing Regulation. The Seller will retain, on an ongoing basis until the earlier of (i) the redemption of the
Class A Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes in full and (ii) the Legal Redemption Date, Class D Notes
in an aggregate principal amount equal to at least 5 per cent. of the nominal amount of the "securitised exposures"
(i.e. the Relevant Receivables) as of the Note Issuance Date. The Seller will purchase and acquire the Retained
Class D Notes indirectly from the Issuer through the Lead Manager. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the
Seller undertakes to retain the Retained Class D Notes and not to sell and/or transfer them (whether in full or in part)
to any third party until the earlier of (i) the redemption of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class C
Notes in full and (ii) the Legal Redemption Date.

With a view to support compliance with Article 409 of the CRR and Article 52 (g) of the AIFMD, abcbank GmbH
in its capacity as Master Servicer will, on a monthly basis after the Note Issuance Date, procure that relevant
information to the Noteholders in the form of the Investor Reports including data with regard to the Relevant
Receivables and an overview of the retention of the material net economic interest will be provided. The Master
Servicer will provide Bloomberg with each Investor Report and procure that Bloomberg will make each Investor
Report available to the Noteholders on its website https://bloomberg.com. The website of the Bloomberg does not
form part of the information provided for the purposes of this Prospectus and disclaimers may be posted with respect
to the information posted thereon.

Each prospective investor and Noteholder is required to independently assess and determine the sufficiency of the
information described in the preceding five paragraphs for the purposes of complying with the Risk Retention Rules,
in particular with each of Section 5 of the CRR (including Article 405), Section 5 of Chapter III or "Section 5" of
the AIFMR (including Article 51) and Chapter VIII of Insolvency II Implementing Regulation (including Article
254) and any corresponding national measures which may be relevant. Neither the Issuer, the Seller, the Master
Servicer, any Lessor, any Sub-Servicer, the Arranger, the Lead Manager nor any other party to the Transaction
Documents gives any representation or assurance that such information is sufficient in all circumstances for such
purposes. In addition, if and to the extent the Risk Retention Rules are relevant to any prospective investor and
Noteholder, such investor and Noteholder should ensure that it complies with the Risk Retention Rules in its
relevant jurisdiction. Prospective Noteholders who are uncertain as to the requirements which apply to them in any
relevant jurisdiction should seek guidance from the competent regulator. The Seller accepts responsibility for the
information set out in this paragraph and in the preceding five paragraphs.
