Highlights HY 212 European High Yield Market Highlights 4, 3, Amount in EURm Number of deals 12 9 Europe s primary high-yield bond market continued to be impacted by the sovereign debt crisis in the Eurozone in the first half of 212. The crisis appeared to recede in January after the European Central Bank injected liquidity into the region s banks, and the market opened strongly. However, elections in France and Greece and the deteriorating health of Spain s banks generated intense volatility and significantly reduced the volume of issuance by the end of the period. 2, 1, 6 3 Debtwire Europe covered 73 high yield bond issues with a total value of EUR 25.56bn from 47 companies during the first half. Issuance was lower than in 1H11, when companies raised EUR 37.72bn from 18 high yield bonds, but was a significant improvement on the second half of 211, when EUR 1.6bn of bonds came to market. HY11 HY12 Issuance window opens wide in February... Refinance debt Acquisition GCP Dividend and Securitisation 1% 9% 8% 7% 6% 5% 4% 3% 2% 1% % HY11 HY12 New issuance peaked in February with 2 deals worth a total EUR 7.44bn brought to market. This followed EUR 5.34bn of issuance via 15 bonds in January, and companies issued a further EUR 5.86bn of notes in March. The glut of deals put an end to the slump at the end of 211, when the market closed for weeks at a time....but slams shut again by June However, only eight issues priced in April and nine in May, as investors fretted over the Eurozone s lack of progress in resolving the challenges it faced. Issuance declined further in June, with only EUR 1.91bn raised via six bonds, reflecting growing unease over a potential Eurozone break up or Greek exit from the currency union. Three issuers withdrew their bonds in the first half as a result of the heightened volatility and weak demand, an increase from one bond in the prior year. The bonds were pulled in March, April and May, when conditions became more difficult. Bond-backed M&A at lowest ebb since 29; companies refinance debt 1% 9% 8% 7% 6% 5% 4% 3% 2% 1% % EUR USD GBP Other HY11 HY12 High yield bond issuers used only EUR 3.29bn of new debt or 13% of issuance to fund acquisitions in the first half of 212, the lowest proportion since 29 and a significant fall from EUR 6.97bn, or 18% of issuance, used to finance M&A deals a year earlier. Three quarters of bond issuance, or a total of EUR 19.18bn, was used to refinance outstanding debt in the first half. Of this, EUR 14.9bn or 58% went to repay loans, while another EUR 4.27bn, or 17%, refinanced bonds. Companies used 11% (EUR 2.75bn) of all issuance for general corporate purposes in 1H12, up from just 2% a year earlier. US funds soak up dollar bonds, but sterling issuance declines Companies issued more bonds denominated in US dollars in the first half compared with a year ago, in response to robust demand from US funds and lower borrowing costs for dollar issuance. Dollar bonds represented 43% of issuance, up from 28% in 1H11, as several companies upsized the dollar tranche of a multi-currency bond issue. In contrast, sterling notes represented a smaller proportion of high-yield issuance in the first half than a year ago, falling to 7% from 22% in 1H11. Euro-denominated bonds accounted for 48% of issuance, down from 49% in 1H11, and further evidence of a long-term downward trend. Germany ( 5.36bn) Other ( 5.4bn) Spain ( 1.54bn) UK ( 5.3bn) USA ( 1.6bn) Netherlands ( 1.84bn) Switzerland ( 2.14bn) France ( 3.2bn) Northern European companies busiest in the primary market German and UK-based companies brought the highest number and value of bonds to market during the period. UK companies such as carmaker Jaguar Land Rover, cable group Virgin Media and holiday parks operator Center Parcs Group issued 13 bonds worth a total EUR 5.3bn, while German groups including auto-parts maker Schaeffler and medical care provider Fresenius issued 12 notes worth a total of EUR 5.36bn. French high-yield issuers were also active in the first half and brought about 12% (EUR 3.2bn) of all issuance to market during the period. Page 4

Highlights HY 212 European High Yield Market Highlights Economic headwinds blow out subordinated notes in favour of secured debt Senior Unsecured 44% Senior Secured 55% Only one subordinated bond came to market in the first half, as the poor macroeconomic environment impacted issuers performance and reduced investor appetite for riskier low-ranked debt. Subordinated debt represented just 1% of all issuance, down from 3% in 1H11 when five subordinated issues were priced. The bond issued was the EUR 324m 11.5% note due in 217 from Europcar Groupe. Instead, more than half of all issuance was senior secured, as companies raised a total of EUR 13.92bn through 4 such bonds. Another EUR 11.31bn was issued via 32 issues of senior unsecured notes, which represented 44% of total issuance, up from 38% in 1H11. Senior Subordinated 1% Risk-off mode prompts a rise in shorter-term maturities The market experienced a decline in long-dated bond issuance and a rise in shorter maturities during the first half of 212, a further indication of the risk aversion characterising the market. Investors favoured shorter tenors due to their lower risk, while issuers sought to limit their exposure to the high coupons that investors required. Only 18% of bonds were issued with maturities of eight years or longer, down from 39% in the first half of 211, while 28% of notes issued matured in five years or less, up from only 9.5% a year earlier. Seven-year notes remained the most popular maturity for issuance, as in previous years, but declined to EUR 1.8bn raised via 29 issues, from EUR 17.42bn in 1H11. CCC (8) NR (2) The proportion of floating rate notes (FRN) increased compared with the previous year, but was still low compared with pre-crisis levels in 26 and 27. Five FRNs were brought to market with a total value of EUR 1.32bn, and paid between Euribor+525bps and E+65bps. BB (28) B (34) Uptick in high-quality bonds as challenging conditions put off weaker credits The proportion of bond issuance rated at the high end of the high-yield spectrum increased in the first half of 212 from a year earlier, signalling that market conditions were making it harder for weaker issuers to come to market. About 38% of bonds were assigned a high-quality BB category rating by Moody s or Standard & Poor s (between BB+ and BB for S&P and Ba1 and Ba3 for Moody s), up from 22% in the first half of 211. New bonds rated in the B category accounted for 46% of all issuance, lower than in previous years, while the proportion of new bonds assigned a low CCC -category rating was 11% of the total, down from 13% a year earlier. Deutsche Bank takes top market share of high yield bond underwriting Deutsche Bank was ranked first in the Debtwire Analytics league table of underwriters on European high yield bond issues in 1H12, with a 9.7% share of the market. The bank worked on 37 bond issues during the period with a total value of EUR 2.49bn, and improved its ranking from second a year earlier. Morgan Stanley and Barclays Capital were notable movers up in the ranking compared with the previous year. However, banks such as Credit Suisse, BNP Paribas, Bank of America Merrill Lynch and Societe Generale fell in the ranking as they worked on fewer deals during the period. This report presents information and analysis on the European high yield bond market in the first six months of 212. Page 5

Fifteen deals came to market in January, raising a total of EUR 5.34bn, followed by another 2 bonds worth EUR 7.44bn in February, when the market peaked. Issuance levels remained robust in March, with EUR 5.86bn of bonds brought to market through 15 issues. However, issuers and investors became more wary at the start of the second quarter as the focus turned to the upcoming presidential election in France as well as a general election in Greece, and the market began to slow. Eight high-yield bond issues worth EUR 2.75bn priced in April, when concerns re-emerged over sovereign borrowing costs in weaker Eurozone economies, and the Dutch government collapsed in disagreement over the national budget. The downward trend in issuance became more pronounced in May and June as attention turned to the worsening condition of Spain s banks, and preparations for a second Greek election after an inconclusive outcome to the first. Nine bonds were issued in May, raised a total EUR 2.27bn, and issuance fell to six issues in June that raised EUR 1.91bn as confidence was sapped by growing fears of a potential Eurozone break up or Greek exit from the currency union.

Intermediate Capital Group, the UK-based mezzanine finance provider, abandoned plans to issue a sterling-denominated senior unsecured 217 bond in March 212 due to poor market conditions, but indicated that it plans to return to the market when the environment improves. French steelmaker Ascometal pulled its euro-denominated eight year senior secured notes in April, despite improving the bond s security and tightening debt-incurrence tests to sweeten the offering. In May, German roofing materials manufacturer Monier also postponed plans to issue a seven-year EUR 25m senior secured bond. The group withdrew the deal five days after closing books as volatility in the market increased, and agreed an amend and extend on its loans instead. Page 8

Five-year bonds represented 24% of all issuance, raising EUR 6.5bn via 17 issues. This was a significant increase on 1H11, when 12 issues of five-year bonds came to market, raising EUR 3.37bn (9% of total 1H11 issuance). Seven-year notes were the most popular tenor for issuance in 1H12, continuing the trend experienced in 211 and 21. Companies raised EUR 1.8bn through 29 seven-year issues, (39% of total issuance).

Europcar Groupe was the only company to issue a subordinated bond in 1H12, representing 1% of all issuance in the period. This was a decline from five subordinated notes issued in 1H11, and about 3% of issuance by value in previous years. Europcar issued a EUR 324m 11.5% note due in 217. Page 9

Issuers raised EUR 19.18bn of new bonds for refinancing (75% of total issuance by value), through 5 issues out of the total 73 during the period. Companies also obtained EUR 22.8bn of new leveraged loans in 1H12 to refinance outstanding bonds and loans, a significant increase from EUR 6.26bn in 1H11. More than half of bond issuance in 1H12 (58%) was used to refinance loans, in line with the past three years, although the total value declined to EUR 14.9bn from EUR 22.95bn in 1H11. A further 17% of total issuance (EUR 4.27bn) was used to refinance outstanding bonds. Issuers raised EUR 3.29bn in the high yield market to finance acquisitions in 1H12 (13% of total value), a significant decline from EUR 6.97bn (18%) in 1H11. It was the lowest proportion used for M&A since 29 (full year), when just 12% of bonds funded dealmaking. The companies that tapped the bond market for M&A in 1H12 were Orange Switzerland, which financed its takeover by Apax Partners with three EUR 71mequivalent bonds; and Four Seasons Health Care, which issued two notes totalling GBP 525m to fund its leveraged buyout by Terra Firma. In contrast, proceeds used to fund general corporate purposes rose to 11% (EUR 2.75bn) of total issuance in 1H12, from just 2% in 1H11. Center Parcs UK issued the only notes used for securitisation, pricing a GBP 28m 11.625% senior secured bond due 218 in February.

Euro-denominated debt accounted for 47% of high yield issuance by value in 1H12, a fall from 49% in 1H11 and in line with years of previous declines. However, sterling-denominated notes accounted for a significantly smaller proportion of issuance in the first half of 212 than the previous year, falling to 7% from 22% in 1H11. There were five sterling-denominated high yield bonds issued in the first half of 212, with a value of EUR 1.83bn. Three of these issues were priced in the first quarter, and in the second quarter Four Seasons Healthcare issued two notes with a total value of GBP 525m in June. Two thirds of the US dollar issuance (2 of 3 bonds; total USD 14.32bn) were brought to market in the first quarter. They included Fresenius Medical Care s two issues worth USD 1.5bn; Cableuropa s USD 1bn 8.875% note; and a USD 1bn 8.375% bond by Ineos Group. In 2Q12, USD issues totalled EUR 2.96bn, and included Lawson Software s USD 1.15bn 9.375% notes due 219; a USD 775m-equivalent issue by Vantage Drilling Company, and USD 775m 7.5% notes due 22 issued by Ineos. Three bonds were issued in alternative currencies during the period. In January, Norwegian group Teekay Offshore Partners placed a NOK 6m senior secured 217 bond, and in February Orange Switzerland issued a CHF 45m 6.75% senior secured note due 219. In May, Teekay LNG Partners issued a NOK 6m senior unsecured 217 note. Page 1

This was a slight relative decrease compared to 1H11, when 39% of issuers (31 out of 8) came to market for the first time. First-time issuers priced 27 issues totalling EUR 9.5bn in 1H12, representing 35% of total issuance by value. The largest first-time issuer in 1H12 was German autoparts manufacturer Schaeffler, which refinanced its 214 loans with four bonds totalling EUR 2.4bn in February. US group Lawson Software also raised EUR 1.1bn-equivalent in March to refinance debt, issuing two senior unsecured notes comprising a USD 1.15bn seven-year bond yielding 9.375% and a EUR 25m seven-year bond yielding 1%. The proportion of first-time issuance rated in the BB category increased significantly YoY to 22% (6 out of 27 bonds) in 1H12, from 9% in the previous half year. More than half (56%) of the issuance, or 15 out of 27 bonds, was rated in the B category, lower than the 75% granted a B rating in 1H11 (33 of 44 bonds). However, the number of bonds rated CCC also increased YoY, to 22% of first-time issuance in 1H12, compared with just 14% in 1H11. Senior secured debt represented two thirds of first-time high-yield issuance in 1H12, at 67% of all bonds issued, an increase from 54% in 1H11. All other debutants (33%) issued senior unsecured notes, a decline from 41% in 1H11. The average coupon of all first-time issuance in 1H12 was 9.19% with an average price of 98.14.

The bank worked on 37 bond issues during the period with a total value of EUR 2.49bn, and improved its ranking from second place a year earlier. Morgan Stanley and Barclays Capital were notable movers up in the ranking compared with the previous year. The US bank gained ten places to be ranked fifth, increasing its market share to 5.8% from 2.5% a year earlier, while Barclays Capital climbed from seventh to third place as it gained 6.3% of the market in 1H12. Commerzbank also gained nine places, after more than doubling its market share to 3.6%. However, banks such as Credit Suisse, BNP Paribas, Bank of America Merrill Lynch and Societe Generale fell several places in the ranking as they worked on fewer deals during the period. Credit Suisse slipped to rank eighth as its market share declined to 4.9% in 1H12 from 12.9% a year ago. BNP Paribas came in four places lower in 1H12, while BofA Merrill Lynch and Societe Generale each declined by five places. Landesbank Baden-Württemberg was a new entrant into the table, up to place 19 from 48 in 1H11. Its robust performance, alongside those of Deutsche Bank and Commerzbank, indicate the relative strength of German banks in the market at a time when other banks experienced declines in their activity in the high yield market.
