DBRS Discontinues Rating on Green FCT Lease 2012-1 Series A

DBRS Ratings Limited (DBRS) discontinued the rating on the Series A notes issued by Green FCT Lease 2012-1.

The rating discontinuation reflects the payment in full of the remaining Series A notes on 27 November 2017. The remaining balance and rating of the notes prior to the full redemption were as follows:

-- EUR 129,870,910.89 Series A, previously rated AAA (sf)

Notes:
All figures are in euros unless otherwise noted.

The principal methodology applicable to the rating is: “Master European Structured Finance Surveillance Methodology.”

In DBRS’s opinion, a discontinued-repaid rating action does not warrant the application of the entire principal methodology, as the bond has been repaid in full.
