Characteristics of Loans in Special Servicing

The following charts and tables provide some key characteristics of the EMEA CMBS loans currently in special servicing.

FIGURE 2

Source: Moody’s Investors Service, Servicer Reports

To put Figure 2 above into context, of the loans currently securitised in CMBS, 15% (by total EMEA CMBS origination volume) were originated in 2005, 24% in 2006 and 21% in 2007. Hence, the proportion of specially serviced loans originated in 2006 and 2007 are elevated.

Most of the loans securitised in the EMEA CMBS market are secured by properties located in the UK (approximately 58% of current total outstanding EMEA CMBS volume), followed by Germany with 27%. No other country contributes more than 5% to the total outstanding deal volume. There are no noteworthy exposures in EMEA CMBS to Spain, Ireland, Portugal or Greece. Comparing Figure 3 to the overall EMEA CMBS market, the relative contribution of specially serviced loans secured by properties in Germany and France are quite high considering that Germany contributes 27% to the total outstanding loans in EMEA CMBS and France contributes 5%. France’s large share is influenced, inter alia, by the large Windermere XII FCT transaction.

As background, out of the whole EMEA CMBS volume, approximately 23% of loans are secured by office properties, 23% by retail properties, 16% by multi-family properties and 16% by mixed-use properties. The remainder property types such as industrial and hotels are grouped under “Other”. When looking at the relative performance of loans secured by different property types, Moody’s notes that loans secured by multi-family properties demonstrate a relatively stable performance. As can be seen from Figure 4, only a small portion of loans in special servicing are backed by multi-family properties (6%). Similarly, the share of retail properties in special servicing is relatively low (11%) although this property type has seen considerable stress, especially for secondary quality retail properties. Moody’s notes that retail properties in EMEA CMBS have often relatively stable cash flow profiles, which have so far prevented a large number of loan defaults during the term. The large share of the “Other” type of properties included in Figure 4 (8%) is primarily driven by the loans backed by care home properties in the UK such as the loan securitised in the Titan Europe 2007-1 (NHP) Limited transaction.

The special servicer of the loans is typically determined at closing of the CMBS transaction. Figure 6 shows the different special servicers active in the EMEA CMBS market and their market share by number of loans that they service. On numerous occasions, the noteholders or junior lenders have requested a transfer of a loan from one special servicer to another, as permitted under the transaction documentation. Moody’s endeavors to comment on such changes in the form of a press release for the affected transactions.

Figure 7 shows the time elapsed since the loan was transferred into special servicing. Moody’s notes that next to the work-out strategy adopted, the jurisdiction in which the property is located highly impacts the work-out periods for loans. There are significant differences between the collateral security and bankruptcy regimes in individual European jurisdictions, influencing the required time to work-out loans.

Moody’s Analysis of Loans in Special Servicing

This section of the report provides some key data points of Moody’s analysis of loans in special servicing, namely:

» Reason for the transfer of the loan into special servicing

» Current status of the loan

» Moody’s observation regarding the primary focus of the special servicer’s current work-out strategy

» Remaining years until legal final maturity of the CMBS

» Moody’s expected principal loss on a loan-by-loan basis

* Moody’s notes that the type and severity of performance issues may change following the initial transfer of the loans into special servicing. The data provided by Moody’s as “Reason for Transfer” is limited to the actual cause of the loan transfer. ** Securitised loan balance is in € million as per transfer date.

Reason For Transfer into Special Servicing Total € Million Loan Balance

Source: Moody’s Investors Service, Servicer Reports

Various factors can cause a securitised loan to default and be transferred into special servicing. Moody’s has created seven major categories to distinguish between the different types of performance issues faced by loans which result in their transfer into special servicing. As shown in Figure 8, the most common reasons include financial covenant breaches and payment defaults either during the term of the loan or at its scheduled maturity. The “Other” category includes imminent loan default as well as other specific transfer reasons that are less often observed, such as

reporting issues. As can be seen from the graph, non-payment at maturity has become more prominent as a reason for transfer starting with the first half of 2010. While the LTV covenant breach continues to be one of the most common reasons for transfer into special servicing, it is worth noting that the recent LTV covenant breaches observed were largely linked to upcoming loan maturity dates as servicers tend to call for updated valuations nearer the maturity date of the loans.

Specially serviced loans are categorised as “Current” if all debt service payments are being made by the borrowers while loans with payment arrears (delinquencies) before loan maturity are categorised as “Non-current”. A further distinction is made between loans that have past their maturity dates, with loans for which the borrowers continue making interest payments being categorised as “Matured Loan/Paying”. Loans that were not repaid at the scheduled loan maturity date and for which the borrowers do not make full interest payments are categorised as “Matured Loan/Non-paying”.

Special servicers report on a regular basis their current actions and plans regarding the work-out of loans that they service. Overall, the format of reporting for specially serviced loans is quite heterogeneous; therefore, to give an effective overview of the loans in special servicing, Moody’s has categorised the loans by the primary focus of the current work-out strategy.

Moody’s notes that special servicers typically follow multiple work-out routes when trying to maximise recoveries from properties and other assets securing the specially serviced loan. For example, a special servicer’s main focus may be to stabilise the secured properties with a view to optimising their lease profile, which does not preclude the special servicer from realising an opportunity to sell the property, should such an opportunity arise. The categories are Moody’s interpretation of the special servicer’s currently prevailing focus of work-out. Moody’s endeavours to report multiple categories for loans for which the special servicer has clearly formulated different routes (e.g. sell/hold strategy on a property-by-property basis).

Figure 12 illustrates for each of the major special servicer groups, the time elapsed since the loans were transferred to them. As already mentioned under Figure 7, the work-out strategy adopted and the jurisdiction in which the underlying property is located highly impact the work-out periods for loans. Moody’s reports the loans as in special servicing until a final recovery determination is issued by the respective special servicer, regardless of when the properties are liquidated and recoveries are allocated to the noteholders.

Remaining Years Until Legal Final Maturity of the CMBS % of Total Loan Balance

Source: Moody’s Investors Service, Servicer Reports

Moody’s observes that, generally, special servicers work-out the loans with a view to maximising recoveries on a net present value basis by no later than the legal final maturity of the CMBS notes. On a weighted average basis by loan balance, there are 4.5 years remaining for specially serviced loans to be worked-out until the legal final maturity of the CMBS notes is reached. However, the first significant EMEA CMBS legal final maturity dates are already in 2012. So far, one loan was not worked-out within the tail period of the securitisation that it is in which is the Opera Finance (Uni-Invest) B.V. transaction. The loan is no longer reported as in special servicing; therefore, has been excluded from Figure 13. The transaction with less than one year left until legal final maturity of the notes, White Tower 2006-3 plc is in the finalisation of the loan work-out; the CMBS notes have already been de-listed and the only class with a an outstanding balance is no longer accruing interest.

As Moody’s ratings address the expected loss for CMBS notes by their legal final maturity, this section provides an overview of Moody’s principal loss expectation at the level of the underlying loans. Moody’s Expected Principal Loss refers to the severity of loss upon an enforcement action. Moody’s principal loss expectation is also made available on a loan-by-loan level in the next section of the report (Table 1 on page 12).

Moody’s Expected Principal Loss is largely driven by:

» Moody’s loan-to-value (LTV) ratio, which is based on Moody’s property value assessment considering the level of distress on the property value due to the work-out strategy.

» Moody’s estimate of the work-out duration until the secured properties are liquidated and recoveries are allocated to the notes.

» Moody’s expectation regarding the costs of work-out and enforcement.

» Accrued loan interest and Moody’s assessment as to how much rental cash flows are available to make interest and principal payments during the work-out period.

» Third-party claims that rank prior or equal to the loan security, hence influencing the recovery. Examples for potentially prior ranking claims are swap termination payments and senior ranking subsidised debt.

» Moody’s property value volatility assumption; for a detailed description please refer to Moody’s Rating Methodology2

Key inputs such as Moody’s property value, Moody’s property value volatility assumption and Moody’s expected work-out time are driven by Moody’s assessment of the likely work-out strategy, which is regularly reviewed and updated. Moody’s forward looking assessment of the probable work-out strategy is subject to uncertainties and might change over time, which in turn may impact Moody’s property value, recovery and ultimate principal loss expectation.

Review of All Loans Removed from Special Servicing

As loans are worked-out and leave special servicing, Moody’s analyses the outcome for the loans and reports some of its findings in this section.

The analysis is of loans that have left special servicing since end-Q4 2009.

* Securitised loan balance is in € million as per transfer date.

Outcome for Loans Removed from Special Servicing % of Total Loan Balance

Source: Moody’s Investors Service, Servicer Reports

The above data captures all loans removed from special servicing regardless of the outcome (i.e. with or without realised losses). Within the full repayment category, there can be loans for which the respective sponsor has secured refinancing after the loan transferred into special servicing or worked-out loans for which the special servicer has sold properties with enough proceeds to fully repay the debt. As can be seen from the graph, restructuring is a possible outcome for loans that are in special servicing which results in a loan’s transfer back to primary servicing while the loan remains a part of the securitisation. However, restructurings that achieve loan corrections and their transfer back to primary servicing have been relatively few with no loans being restructured yet in 2012. Moody’s observes that restructurings via some form of loan modification frequently occur while loans remain non-performing and continue to be specially serviced. For a list of loans that have left special servicing, please see Tables 2, 3 and 4 on pages 13-17.

Duration for Loans Removed From Special Servicing % Of Total Loan Balance

Source: Moody’s Investors Service, Servicer Reports Figure 19 shows the total duration in special servicing. As mentioned earlier in the report (Figure 7), next to the work-out strategy adopted, the jurisdiction in which the property is located highly impacts the work-out periods for loans. There are significant differences between the collateral security and bankruptcy regimes in individual European jurisdictions, influencing the required time to work-out loans. We have so far observed that loans can be worked-out within as short as six months. We also note, however, that some of the loans included in the <6 month bucket are loans that had past maturity dates for which the borrowers were already working towards a refinancing before the loan was transferred into special servicing. Therefore, the loans were repaid in full (refinanced) shortly after the loans’ transfer into special servicing.

Review of Loans Removed from Special Servicing with Losses

As the number of loans that have been worked-out with losses increase over time, we look at the loss severities by various criteria such as loan size, property type and location. The following figures are based on loan work-outs where the final recovery determinations have been made by the respective special servicers. The analysis omits one loan securitised in Opera Finance (Uni-Invest) B.V. for which there is certainty of loss on the A-loan, but ultimate recoveries are indeterminate at this stage. While it is difficult to draw conclusions based on the limited work-outs to-date, we can see that the highest loss severities have

been experienced on loans with smaller balances (<EUR 10 million). The weighted average loss severity for loans with collateral in the UK have been fairly high at 40%. With respect to property types, no single property type stands out with a high loss severity whereas the multi-family loans show the lowest severity albeit based on a few work-outs.

* Securitised Balance at origination or transaction closing date

** Percent of initial / closing principal balance of the loan

*** Percent of aggregate principal balance of the securitised loans at closing. The loss realised at the transaction level from a particular loan may be different than the principal loss on the loan as determined by the servicer based on transaction documentation.

^ The loss on the A-Loan has not been reported by the Special Servicer. The loss on the securitised loan will depend on deferred payments to the most senior noteholders via the issuance of new notes through a new vehicle. The issuer’s obligations toward the noteholders of Opera Finance (Uni-Invest) B.V. have been extinguished, leaving no recoveries available to the Class B, C, and D noteholders. Taking into account the payments to the senior noteholders from the new notes, the ultimate loss on the securitised loan (A-loan) is expected range from 24% to 46% on the closing principal balance of the loan.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Does the report capture all loans that are in special servicing in EMEA CMBS transactions?

A: The report includes loans securitised in Single-Borrower and Large Multi-borrower transactions which together represent approximately 80% of all transactions currently rated by Moody’s. Loans securitised in Small Multi-borrower, UK Housing Association and non-performing loan (NPL) transactions are excluded from this report.

Q2: How does Moody’s track the loans that are transferred in and out of special servicing?

A: Moody’s relies on the quarterly investor reporting provided by the servicers as well as special notices issued to investors. Special notices (typically in the form of “RIS” notifications) include material information for the transactions such as new transfers of loans into special servicing or disclosure of property re-valuations for loans that have been transferred into special servicing as well as final loss determination for worked-out loans.

Q3: How does Moody’s determine the focus of the special servicers’ work-out?

A: Categories listed as part of special servicers’ focus of work-out have been created by Moody’s to facilitate a systematic reporting of all loans that are being specially serviced by a number of different servicers. The determination for each loan is based on the information disclosed by the special servicers. Moody’s endeavours to report multiple focuses of work-out for a loan when the servicer clearly defines the various work-out options that it is pursuing.

Q4: Can you clarify the assumptions behind the Moody’s Expected Principal Losses from the loans. Do the assumptions follow a base-case, stressed-case, or a stress at a particular rating level?

A: Our assumptions as regards the estimation of the level of principal loss follow our Central Scenarios.3

Q5: Does Moody’s report its loan-to-value ratio and other factors that were considered in its analysis such as work-out costs and senior ranking swap termination payments?

Specific assumptions on a property-by-property or loan-by-loan basis depend on the particulars of the analysed loans, and these are subject to rating committee decisions.

A: Moody’s reports its estimated portfolio weighted average LTVs in its press releases for the affected transactions. The press releases typically also include Moody’s estimated LTVs for loans that comprise a large portion of the portfolio. The work-out cost assumptions generally follow our country tiering in EMEA3

Q6: How does Moody’s analysis factor in extended work-out periods including disposal plans or loan restructurings which may result in lower principal losses when compared with an immediate liquidation of properties?

; however, we may change our cost assumptions on a case-by-case basis. Significant differences in cost assumptions along with material senior ranking swap termination costs would be commented on in the press releases for transactions.

A: The general assumption which follows our Central Scenario is that we do not expect the servicers to liquidate loans right away in the current market environment. In our analysis, we determine a base case for each loan. We then look at different scenarios in relation to potential work-out routes that special servicers can follow and assess how these could impact the ratings. When there is sensitivity of the notes’ ratings arising from a potential change in the servicer’s work-out strategy for the underlying loans compared to our base case (ex: restructuring versus enforcement), we highlight this in our press releases.

Q7: Are the loss severities updated on a regular basis?

A: We monitor loan/transaction performance on an ongoing basis through review of servicer reporting and also periodic transaction reviews. Moody’s Expected Principal Losses may be adjusted when there is new information that is material and not taken into account in our latest assessment of the securitised loan.

Note on Data

This report captures loans transferred into special servicing among Single-Borrower and Large Multi-Borrower EMEA CMBS transactions rated by Moody’s. Large multi-borrower transactions are defined as transactions with a loan Herfindahl index of less than 25, comprised of securitisations of typically 2-20 loans. Single Borrower transactions are securitisations of one or more loans granted to one borrower group only and for the purposes of this report include Single-Tenant and Whole Business Securitisations. Transactions excluded from this report consist of: UK Housing Association transactions, Small Multi-Borrower transactions (loan Herfindahl index greater than 25) and securitisations of non-performing loans (NPL transactions).

At the cut-off date for the data in the report (September 2012), the total number of Single-Borrower deals monitored by Moody’s was 48 and the Large-Multi-Borrower deals was 66.

To facilitate the analysis and avoid currency fluctuations, all loan currencies have been converted to EUR using a long term average exchange rate.

Moody’s has created several criteria to report the loans in a systematic format. A breakdown the categories used is as follows:

Status of Securitised Loan Current Non-current Matured Loan / Paying Matured Loan / Non-paying

Reason for Transfer into Special Servicing LTV covenant breach ICR/DSCR covenant breach Non-payment during term Non-payment at maturity Major tenant vacated / defaulted Borrower/Sponsor insolvency Other

Special Servicer Focus of Workout Evaluation of Options Stabilisation of Property Opportunistic Sale Standstill Agreement / Restructuring Enforcement Action / Forced Sale Worked-out / Finalisation Other

Loans that have defaulted, but have not yet been transferred into special servicing are excluded from the report.
