KEY RATING DRIVERS

The affirmations on all classes included in this review are based on the stable performance of the underlying portfolios since the transactions' inceptions and the sufficient credit enhancement available to the notes. As of the most recent trustee reports, the transactions continue to pass all coverage and collateral quality tests. The credit quality of the underlying portfolios has remained stable, as reflected by the weighted average rating factor (WARF) levels since closing and/or the last review.

Key performance drivers, such as credit enhancement levels and portfolio credit quality metrics, for each CLO can be found in the U.S. CLO Tracker accessible on 'www.fitchratings.com' or by using the link below.

The transactions included in this rating action originated in 2012-2014 and are managed by AEGON USA Investment Management, LLC, CVC Credit Partners, LLC, GC Investment Management LLC, GoldenTree Asset Management LP, GSO / Blackstone Debt Funds Management LLC, Och-Ziff Loan Management LP, and Silvermine Capital Management LLC. All CLOs still remain in their respective reinvestment periods.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

The ratings of the notes may be sensitive to the following: asset defaults, significant negative credit migration, lower than historically observed recoveries for defaulted assets, and breaches of concentration limitations or portfolio quality covenants. Fitch conducted rating sensitivity analysis on the closing date of each CLO in this review, incorporating increased levels of defaults and reduced levels of recovery rates, among other sensitivities.

This review was conducted under the framework described in the report 'Global Rating Criteria for Corporate CDOs' using the PCM for projecting future default and recovery levels for the underlying portfolios. Given the stable performances of each transaction, no updated cash flow modeling was completed for this review.

Individual Representations, Warranties, and Enforcement Mechanisms reports are available for all structured finance transactions initially rated on or after Sept. 26, 2011 at 'www.fitchratings.com'.
