Auto Sector Surveillance and DBRS s Auto Performance Analytics Report Overview In, DBRS launched its web-based Auto Performance Analytics Reports (Auto PARs), monthly performance reports for all DBRS-rated U.S. auto asset-backed securities (ABS) transactions. These surveillance reports summarize key deal performance information as of the most recent transaction reporting period and include the following: Class summary and current enhancement analysis Loss analysis Historical performance of collateral In addition to providing historical performance metrics, each month current enhancement levels are tested against various expectations of remaining losses. DBRS Auto PARs are available for free on the DBRS website at the following link: www.dbrs.com/par. Class Summary and Current Enhancement Analysis The Auto PARs provide a performance assessment of a transaction and summarize current credit enhancement available for each tranche. Sources of hard credit enhancement at issuance and for the current period (typically subordination, reserve accounts and overcollateralization) are individually summarized. Current period hard credit enhancement levels are aggregated for each class and are displayed relative to original enhancement levels. This comparison provides insight into the shifts in tranche enhancement levels as the structure de-leverages.

Loss Analysis The Auto PAR provides original DBRS loss assumptions for transactions as well as standard loss forecasts. DBRS ORIGINAL BASE CASE LOSS AND LOSS TIMING The Auto PARs provide a chart with a DBRS base case loss assumption and the related loss timing curve considered in the original rating analysis. In the Loss Forecast (see chart below) cumulative net losses realized to date (Actual CNL) are charted relative to DBRS s base case net loss assumption (DBRS Base Case). This chart offers a visual perspective on current loss performance relative to the original base case assumptions, providing immediate insight on the relative performance of the collateral.

These methods include the (1) straight line, (2) original-loss-curve and (3) pool-factor loss methods. Each of these methods systematically calculates remaining loss estimates by using current cumulative net losses (CumL) as a starting point, and are summarized on the following page: 5

Auto Sector Surveillance and DBRS Auto PAR (Performance Analytics Report) Straight-Line Method. An average is determined by taking the ratio of a transaction s CumL incurred to date divided by the number of periods in the transaction that have already occurred. This average is then multiplied by the number of remaining periods to arrive at the REL. Original-Loss-Curve Method. Similar to the straight-line method, this method uses actual transaction CumL and DBRS s original loss timing curve to project REL. This method assumes the actual timing of defaults will mirror the original loss curve considered in the original rating analysis. For example, if the original timing curve assumes 40% of losses will occur by the end of year one, and actual losses are 2%, the REL for the transaction would be 3%. 1 Pool-Factor Method. This technique derives REL from the relationship of current CumL to the amount of amortized pool balance. For example, if current CumL is 1%, and 25% of the pool has amortized, the REL would be 3%. 2 This method assumes that future losses occur based on the current ratio of CumL to amortized collateral amounts. This method tends to be extremely onerous in the first few periods of a transaction and, over time becomes more realistic. DBRS Expected Loss Analysis Capital Auto Receivables Asset Trust 2004-2 Base Case Pool Factor Method Straight Line Original Loss Curve Current CNL 1.02% 1.02% 1.02% 1.02% Current CNL ($) $28,257,093 $28,257,093 $28,257,093 $28,257,093 Remaining CNL 1.58% 0.62% 0.67% 0.29% Remaining CNL ($) $43,558,996 $17,210,100 $18,513,268 $8,058,840 DBRS Base Case CNL 2.60% 1.65% 1.69% 1.31% DBRS Base Case CNL ($) $71,816,089 $45,467,192 $46,770,360 $36,315,932 DBRS is careful to consider the implications and limitations of each of these loss estimates within the context of current sector fundamentals. DBRS is not limited to these loss projection methods and is careful to recognize situations where the above-mentioned loss projection calculations are not appropriate. For example, because the three published loss projection methods use actual cumulative net losses as inputs to the REL calculation, each method inherently assumes that past transaction performance is indicative of future performance. This may be an inappropriate assumption if a sector has recently undergone a period of robust performance, as these projections may understate REL. Or, if prepays are faster than expected and losses are simultaneously back-loaded, the understatement of REL will be exacerbated by the pool-factor method. TRANCHE LOSS COVERAGE ANALYSIS Using each of the three methods to estimate remaining expected losses, DBRS then calculates a loss coverage ratio for each tranche (see table below) based on the current hard credit enhancement available to each class. If measures of loss coverage grow for any given bond, DBRS may consider an upgrade of the bond. Likewise, as measures of loss coverage decrease, DBRS may consider the rating for a potential downgrade. Loss coverage ratios provide simple measures, and represent one of many potential factors that may indicate a change in credit quality that may affect a transaction s rating. Furthermore, the loss coverage multiples published on the DBRS Auto PARs give no credit to excess spread. However, for a rating review, the DBRS analysis will consider excess spread in its cash flow stress scenarios. 6 1 If the loss curve at the end of year one assumes 40% of total CumL has occurred and current CumL is 2%, REL is derived as follows: (2%/40%) = 5%; REL = 5%-2% = 3%. 2 If the original collateral was $1,000,000 and current collateral is $750,000, the pool factor is 750,000/1,000,000 = 0.75. Assuming CumL is 1%, the pool-factor method projects total CumL to be 4% (1%/(1-0.75) = 4%); REL = 4%-1% = 3%.

Historical delinquencies, interest coverage, principal pass-through and excess spread performance provide added insight on the potential future performance of the transaction structure. DELINQUENCY HISTORY Current delinquencies provide the most immediate perspective on the pipeline of future losses. The DBRS Delinquency History chart presents the dollar amount of delinquencies for a given category of delinquent borrowers as a percentage of the ending pool balance. The percentages are not seasonally adjusted. If a delinquency trigger is included in a transaction structure, the trigger will also be displayed.

Auto Sector Surveillance and DBRS Auto PAR (Performance Analytics Report) INTEREST COVERAGE Interest coverage provides a relative measure of liquidity. DBRS calculates, to the extent the information is available, the ratio of total interest collections (and any swap-related income) on the underlying collateral pool to the related fees and cost of funds associated with the transaction structure. DBRS includes a second measure of interest coverage that additionally considers net losses for the period. As long as these measures are greater than one, the collateral is producing enough cash on a periodic basis to cover related expenses (and losses). If interest coverage 3 is less than one, this indicates a shortfall of interest income to cover the related expenses (and losses) for the period. In this situation, depending on the transaction structure, the additional cash to cover expenses and losses may come from overcollateralization or the reserve account, if available.

This ratio is referred to as the principal pass-through ratio. The ratio may be greater than one if note principal payments are made from a source other than collateral principal collections (i.e., excess spread or amounts from the overcollateralization account). The ratio may be less than one if (1) target overcollateralization amounts have exceeded targeted levels and are released to a residual holder or (2) collateral principal collections have been used to cover a shortfall in fees or interest on the notes in the current period. Generally, DBRS expects this ratio to be one to one and will initiate further review if it deviates from this. EXCESS SPREAD Reflecting the relative excess liquidity within the transaction, the excess spread is frequently viewed as additional credit enhancement available to cover losses. DBRS calculates a current period excess spread 4 by annualizing the dollar amount of the excess of interest collections over fees, losses, and cost of funds (similar to interest coverage) as a percentage of the ending note balance. Depending on the transaction structure, the excess spread may be either released from the transaction, or potentially kept within the deal to cover future losses. 3 In the footnotes to each PAR, DBRS describes how the interest coverage ratio is calculated as it may vary across transactions based on available reported information. 4 For each PAR, DBRS discloses its calculation of transaction excess spread; the calculation will vary depending on the reported information. 8
