PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 2. Legal Proceedings.

The Indenture Trustee, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, has provided the information contained in the following paragraph for purposes of compliance with Regulation AB.

“DBTCA has been named as a defendant in civil litigation concerning its role as trustee of certain residential mortgage backed securities (“RMBS”) trusts. On June 18, 2014, a group of investors (“Plaintiff Investors”) filed a civil action against DBTCA and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company (“DBNTC”) in New York State Supreme Court purportedly on behalf of and for the benefit of 544 private-label RMBS trusts asserting claims for alleged violations of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty and negligence based on DBTCA’s and DBNTC’s alleged failure to perform their obligations as trustees for the trusts (the “NY Derivative Action”). An amended complaint was filed on July 16, 2014, adding Plaintiff Investors and RMBS trusts to the NY Derivative Action. On November 24, 2014, the Plaintiff Investors moved to voluntarily dismiss the NY Derivative Action without prejudice. Also on November 24, 2014, substantially the same group of Plaintiff Investors filed a civil action against DBTCA and DBNTC in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “SDNY Action”), making substantially the same allegations as the New York Derivative Action with respect to 564 RMBS trusts (542 of which were at issue in the NY Derivative Action). The SDNY Action is styled both as a derivative action on behalf of the named RMBS Trusts and, in the alternative, as a putative class action on behalf of holders of RMBS representing interests in those RMBS trusts. DBTCA is reviewing these newly-filed pleadings. DBTCA has no pending legal proceedings (including, based on DBTCA’s preliminary evaluation, the litigation disclosed in this paragraph) that would materially affect its ability to perform its duties as Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders.”

Item 8. Other Information.

Item 8.01 Other Events

The CFPB, together with the U.S. Department of Justice (the “Agencies”), previously contacted American Honda Finance Corporation (“AHFC”) regarding the Agencies’ review of pricing practices by dealers originating retail installment sale contracts for automobiles. Their request for information and the ongoing review was to determine if pricing practices of dealers originating retail installment sale contracts for automobiles resulted in discriminatory pricing of these loans to certain borrowers in violation of applicable laws. AHFC has voluntarily provided the information requested to date and cooperated with the Agencies’ investigation. AHFC has now received a notice that the Agencies have authorized enforcement actions against AHFC, alleging discrimination in automobile loan pricing to certain borrowers by dealers and alleging the loan pricing disparities were caused by AHFC’s business practices related to dealers. AHFC has also been informed that the Agencies may defer pursuit of this litigation if AHFC works with the Agencies to seek a voluntary resolution to these allegations. The Agencies have informed AHFC that they are seeking monetary relief and implementation of changes to AHFC’s pricing practices and policies, which changes could affect AHFC’s business. AHFC intends to continue to cooperate with the Agencies to find a mutually agreeable resolution.
