TEMPORARY WAIVER OF CERTAIN CONTRACTUAL REQUIREMENTS BY
SUPERDRIVE INVESTMENTS (RF) (PROPRIETARY) LIMITED (“SUPERDRIVE”)
FOLLOWING THE RECENT DOWNGRADE OF THE STANDARD BANK OF SOUTH
AFRICA LIMITED BY MOODY’S INVESTOR SERVICES
On 4 October 2012 Moody’s Investor Services reduced the short-
term local currency global scale rating of The Standard Bank of
South Africa Limited (“Standard Bank”) from Prime-1 to Prime-2.
As a consequence Standard Bank no longer has the required credit
rating to act as Hedge Counterparty to SuperDrive, as set out in
the Transaction Documents relating to SuperDrive’s ZAR
10,000,000,000 Asset Backed Medium Term Note Programme.
Investors are hereby informed that SuperDrive, with the consent
of the SuperDrive Guarantor SPV has taken the following steps:
1. Moody’s Investor Services has been engaged to perform a rating
assessment of a proposed amendment to the rating levels
required to act as Hedge Counterparty, with the aim of
affirming the current ratings of the Notes;
2. Pending the rating affirmation SuperDrive has agreed to
temporarily waive all requirements to post collateral or
replace Standard Bank as Hedge Counterparty until 31 January
2013 or the further downgrading of Standard Bank by Moody’s
Investor Services.
