KEY RATING DRIVERS

Quality of Wholesale Receivables: The trust receivables in this series have a high percentage of financing lines backing new vehicles at approximately 92%, are geographically diverse and have strong collateral aging with only 4.3% of the trust inventory aged past 270 days as of Sept. 30, 2015.

Asset Concentrations: Dealers are subject to concentration limits, mitigating the risk of individual dealer defaults and losses. Furthermore, the exposure to individual vehicle type, manufacturer or segment is mitigated with concentration limits in place.

Strength of Dealer Network: Based on dealer financial metrics and Ford Credit's internal dealer risk ratings (categorized into four distinct groups), the financial health of Ford's dealer network is currently strong, with the majority of dealers profitable in 2015.

Strong Trust Performance: FCFMOT continues to experience positive trends in overall performance, including elevated monthly payment rates (MPRs), adequate asset yields, low agings and delinquencies, minimal dealer defaults and no trust losses.

Sufficient Credit Enhancement: The outstanding notes benefit from enhancement in the form of subordination, a subordinated amount, an incremental subordination amount (if necessary) and a cash reserve. Structural features, including early amortization triggers, mitigate risks stemming from dealer/manufacturer defaults/bankruptcies.

Consistent Origination and Servicing: FMCC demonstrates adequate abilities as an originator, underwriter, and servicer, as evidenced by the historical delinquency and loss performance of FCFMOTA.

Current Economic Conditions: The slow U.S. economic recovery and volatility therein could affect the performance of this series. This is mitigated by the conservative analysis, stress assumptions applied and resulting loss coverage, and stable performance to date of FCFMOTA.

Legal Analysis: The legal structure of the transaction provides that a bankruptcy of FMCC would not impair the timeliness of payments on the securities.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

To conduct rating sensitivity for the issued notes, under a category B Dealer Floorplan platform, Fitch assumes portfolio default levels at 10%, 25%, and 40%, and under two recovery-level scenarios of 50% and 30%. Fitch modeled the series with the assumption that the above defaults have occurred and recoveries stressed accordingly, reflecting asset performance in a stressed environment. Remaining expected loss levels were compared with the stressed loss assumption grid commensurate with various rating levels.

To date, trust performance metrics are stable. A material deterioration in performance metrics would have to occur in performance to have a potential negative impact on ratings.
