REPORT ON OPERATIONS

Dear Shareholders, Your Company's 12th financial year ended 31 December 2011; during the year, a securitisation transaction originated in November 2010 was finalised and 2 new securitisation transactions of consumer loans generated by Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A. and financed through the issue of securities were carried out. In March 2011, we completed the stand-alone transaction named "Golden Bar Stand Alone 2011-1" 1(originated in 2010) with the issue of the first and only series of securities amounting to €600,000,000, divided into three classes with decreasing reimbursement priority, the first of which has a rating issued by Moody's Investors Services (Aaa) and Fitch Ratings Ltd. (AAA) and the second has a rating issued by Moody's Investors Services (Baa1). The class A security was subscribed for an amount of €150,000,000 by an institutional investor and an amount of €261,000,000 by Santander Consumer Bank SpA, while the remaining classes of securities were fully subscribed by the Originator. During the year the Company purchased additional loan portfolios (revolving purchases), within the limits of its proceeds (principal) arising from loans already transferred to it and not immediately used to exercise the securities embedded rights, amounting to €199,703,967. The portfolio that was initially purchased will be reconstituted quarterly with portfolios having the same characteristics throughout the revolving period. As part of the second stand-alone Securitisation transaction, named "Golden Bar Stand Alone 2011-2", in August 2011 we made the initial purchase of a performing loan portfolio amounting to €950,000,104 from Santander Consumer Bank. In October 2011, the transaction was finalised by issuing the first and only series of securities amounting to €950,000,000, divided into three classes with decreasing reimbursement priority, the first of which has a rating issued by Moody’s Investors Services (Aaa) and DBRS Inc (AAA) and the second has a rating issued by Moody's Investors Services (Baa1) and DBRS Inc. (A(high)). The securities issued were fully subscribed by Santander Consumer Bank. The portfolio that was initially purchased will be reconstituted quarterly with portfolios having the same characteristics throughout the revolving period. During the year the Company purchased additional loan portfolios (revolving purchases), within the limits of its proceeds (principal) arising from loans already transferred to it and not immediately used to exercise the securities embedded rights, amounting to €89,076,201. As part of the third Securitisation transaction, named "Golden Bar Stand Alone 2011-3", in October 2011 we made the initial purchase of a performing loan portfolio amounting to €710,058,081 from Santander Consumer Bank. In November 2011 the Transaction was finalised with the issuance of the first and only series of securities amounting to €710,058,000, divided into two classes with decreasing reimbursement priority, both without rating. The A class was fully privately subscribed by Bank of America and the Junior security by Santander Consumer Bank.

1 In the Balance Sheet for the year ended 31 December 2010, that securitisation transaction

was named "Golden Bar Securitisation 7" as it had not yet been finalised.

2 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

The portfolio that was initially purchased will be reconstituted quarterly with portfolios having the same characteristics throughout the revolving period. The Programmes previously issued have a structure that provides for a series of sales of loans by Santander Consumer Bank to the Company, each of which is funded by a new securities issue; the loans purchased from time to time by Golden Bar represent a single asset, with no segregation between the various loans purchased from time to time, so that the securities of each issue are backed by the entire loan portfolio purchased over the life of the Programme. Unlike the Programme, the new stand-alone Transactions are characterized by a single sale of receivables and related issue of securities. With reference to the Programme launched in December 2003 through the initial purchase from Santander Consumer Bank SpA of performing loans amounting to €200,002,344 (Golden Bar Securitisation Programme - Series 1/2004), within which three successive initial purchases of loan portfolios and respective securities issues were carried out, more specifically in November 2004 for an amount of €500,007,552 (Golden Bar Securitisation Programme - Series 2/2004), in November 2005 for an amount of €700,008,227 (Golden Bar Securitisation Programme - Series 3/2006) and in December 2006 for an amount of €700,005,785 (Golden Bar Securitisation Programme - Series 4/2007), during the year there no new issues. As per Pricing Supplement signed in March 2004, the Company completed the redemption of the 1/2004 securities Series, for an amount of €8,390,000; it has also continued with the redemption of the securities of the 2/2004 Series, for an amount €60,296,949, the 3/2006 Series, for an amount of €138,980,209 and the 4/2007 Series for an amount of €349,392,096, for a total amount at the balance sheet date of €557,059,254. During the year the Company did not purchase additional loan portfolios (revolving purchases). With reference to the Programme launched in March 2008 through the initial purchase from Santander Consumer Bank SpA of performing loans amounting to €700,001,956 (Golden Bar Securitisation Programme II - Series 1/2008), during the year no new issues were carried out; the Company purchased instead additional loan portfolios (revolving purchases), within the limits of the proceeds (principal) arising from the loans already transferred to it and not immediately used to exercise the securities embedded rights amounting to €60,079,302. This Programme was terminated in advance on 15 July 2011 and the related securities were fully redeemed, for a total of €700,000,000. With reference to the Programme launched in December 2008 through the initial purchase from Santander Consumer Bank SpA of performing loans amounting to €700,002,164 (Golden Bar Securitisation Programme III- Series 1/2008), during the year no new issues were carried out; the Company purchased instead additional loan portfolios (revolving purchases), within the limits of the proceeds (principal) arising from the loans already transferred to it and not immediately used to exercise the securities embedded rights amounting to €135,204,669. As for the previous Programme, also this Programme was terminated in advance on 15 July 2011 and the related securities were fully redeemed, for a total of €750,000,000. With reference to the Programme launched in November 2009 through the initial purchase from Santander Consumer Bank SpA of performing loans amounting to

3 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

€800,001,181 (Golden Bar Securitisation Programme IV- Series 1/2009), during the year no new issues were carried out; the Company purchased instead additional loan portfolios (revolving purchases), within the limits of the proceeds (principal) arising from the receivables already transferred to it and not immediately used to exercise the securities embedded rights amounting to €283,947,440. With reference to the transaction “Golden Bar Stand Alone 2011-1”launched in November 2010 through the initial purchase from Santander Consumer Bank SpA of performing loans amounting to €600,001,249 the Company purchased additional loan portfolios (revolving purchases), within the limits of the proceeds (principal) arising from the loans already transferred to it and not immediately used to exercise the securities embedded rights amounting to €199,703,967. All securitised receivables arise from loans granted by Santander Consumer Bank SpA to its clients as part of its core lending business. As regards these transactions, Santander Consumer Bank also assumed the "servicer" role, having been provided with technical tools and an organizational structure suitable to monitor the various securitisation stages and to effectively perform collection and cash and payment services. Pursuant to Law no.130/1999 the receivables for each transaction, are totally segregated assets both with respect to each other and the assets of the Company and therefore, consistent with the independence of assets that characterizes the transactions, their accounting treatment and reporting is done individually, in accordance with the instructions given by the Bank of Italy by Regulation dated 29 March 2000 and subsequent ones. Consequently, the accounting information relating to these transactions is shown separately in special attachments to the Notes containing the qualitative and quantitative data necessary for a complete and clear presentation. The year 2011 ended with a loss of €218 after recovering, pursuant to contractual conditions and against the segregated assets, the costs incurred to operate the business.

4 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL POSITION AND INCOME RESULTS The assets on the balance sheet consist of "receivables" relating to current account balances (€11,434), current "Tax assets" arising mainly from a residual corporate income tax receivable for 2010 (IRES) carried forward (€126,012), "Other assets" relating to a receivable from the "separated assets" mainly due to the charge back of the costs pursuant to contractual conditions (€279,281). The liabilities in the balance sheet are almost exclusively made up of paid in "Capital" (€10,000) and "Other liabilities" (€509,257), the latter consisting of amounts due to service suppliers and payables to the segregated assets. The income statement, which reflects the costs incurred for the normal operation of the Company, charged back to the segregate assets, shows a positive result before taxes, while presenting a net loss of €218 as a result of the income tax for the period. The financial statements are audited by Deloitte & Touche S.p.A. in compliance with the appointment made by the competent corporate bodies for the period 2009 to 2011. This appointment was made voluntarily and not pursuant to Legislative Decree 39/2010.

OTHER INFORMATION WORTH MENTIONING In the first three months of 2012, the Company, in accordance with the contractual provisions of each securitisation transaction, completed "revolving" purchases of loans for a nominal value of €81,110,702 in relation to the "Golden Bar Securitisation Programme IV", € 61,254,261 in relation to the "Golden Bar Stand Alone 2011-1", €78,410,215 in relation to the "Golden Bar Stand Alone 2011-2" and €95,567,182 in relation to the "Golden Bar Stand Alone 2011-3". In the same period securities relating to the second, third and fourth series issued under the first Programme were redeemed for a value equal respectively, to €7,910,000, €19,194,009, €49,829,250.

5 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

TREASURY SHARES OR SHARES OF THE PARENT COMPANY Pursuant to the provisions of Art. 2428 of the Italian Civil Code please note that during the year the Company did not purchase, sold or hold in portfolio - either directly or through trust companies or nominees -treasury shares or shares of the parent.

MANAGEMENT AND CO-ORDINATION ACTIVITIES Pursuant to the provisions of Art. 2497bis of the Italian Civil Code please note that no person exercises management and coordination over the Company.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES AND INTRA-GROUP TRANSACTIONS The information regarding related party transactions, as required by art. 2428 of the Italian Civil Code, is provided in the Notes. In any case, the company did not carry out transactions with related parties and intra-group transactions except those made under the securitisation transaction with the company Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A.. For additional information and details please refer to Part D of the notes.

DISCLOSURES ON RISKS AND HEDGING POLICIES With reference to the company's assets, credit risk and market risk, in light of the business in which the Company is engaged, can be considered negligible and, therefore, it was not deemed necessary to implement any hedging policy. With reference to securitised assets and considered the provisions of Law 130/1999, the above risks are transferred to the securities holders. Regarding operational risk, it should be noted that the Company has no employees and it has delegated the performance of its functions and the associated operational risk to the entities in charge as per contract.

DISCLOSURE PURSUANT TO ARTICLE. 123-BIS OF LEGISLATIVE DECREE 58/98 Pursuant to Article.123-bis of Legislative Decree no. 58 of 24 February 1998, the reports of issuers of securities admitted to trading on regulated markets must contain a specific section, named "Report on corporate governance and ownership structure", which, pursuant to paragraph 2, letter b), of the said article, contains information about "the main characteristics of existing risk management and internal audit systems used in relation to the financial reporting process, including consolidated reports, where applicable". The Company has no employees. In pursuit of its corporate purpose, and consequently also for activities related to risk management and internal audit systems in place in relation to the financial reporting process, the Company appointed agents for this purpose. In particular, risk management and internal audit systems used in relation to

6 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

the financial reporting process can be traced back to the originator of the securitisation transaction and the corporate servicer. The contractual documentation of the securitisation transaction governs the appointment and specific tasks that each Company's agent is required to perform. This information is also contained in Part D, Section F.3, of the Notes. The transaction's agents are appointed from among parties that carry out the tasks assigned by the company as part of their business activity. This task must be performed by the agents in accordance with the applicable law and in such a manner that the Company can timely fulfil its obligations under the transaction documents and the law. The main roles of these agents are the following:

(i) Servicer, who, among other things, manages the purchased loans; (ii) Corporate Servicer, who is in charge of the Company's administrative and

accounting management, and (iii) Cash Manager, Computation Agent and Paying Agent, who perform treasury

management, calculation and payment services. In particular, the Servicer is the "entity responsible for the collection of purchased receivables and treasury and payment services" as provided for in Article 2, paragraph 3, letter (c) of Law 130/1999. Pursuant to Article 2, paragraph 6, of Law 130/1999 the Servicer role may be covered by banks or by intermediaries registered in the special list referred to in art. 107 of Legislative Decree no. 385 of 1 September 1993, which check that transactions comply with the law and the prospectus. Also pursuant to Bank of Italy Regulation of 23 August 2000 the Servicer is responsible both for tasks of an operating nature and for "guaranteeing" that securitisation transactions are properly carried out in the interests of securities holders and, in general, of the market. Finally, with reference to financial information, this is prepared by the Corporate Servicer primarily using data provided by the person responsible for the management of purchased receivables. The Sole Director of the Company monitors and verifies agents' compliance with the tasks assigned to them, in their respective roles, including with regard to the financial reporting process.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

1 Part A - Accounting Policies

A.1 GENERAL PART Section 1 - Statement of compliance with international accounting standards These financial statements are prepared in accordance with the international accounting standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the related interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), endorsed by the European Commission, as established by EU Regulation no. 1606 of 19 July 2002. In preparing the financial statements, the IAS/IFRS in force at 31 December 2011 as approved by the European Commission were applied. Section 2 General Drafting Principles The financial statements are in accordance with the IAS/IFRS and the provisions contained in the Bank of Italy Regulation of 13 March 2012 concerning " Instructions for the preparation of the annual financial statements by financial Intermediaries pursuant to art. 107 of the CBA, electronic money institutions (EMI), asset management companies (AMC) and Brokerage Firms (Italian SIM)". In particular, the financial statements are prepared in accordance with the general principles laid down in IAS 1, on a going concern basis (IAS 1 par. 25 and par. 26), in accordance with the accrual basis of accounting (IAS 1 par. 27 and par. 28) and in compliance with the consistency of presentation and classification of financial statement items (IAS 1 par. 29.) Assets and liabilities, income and expenses were not offset unless required or permitted by a standard or an interpretation (IAS 1 par. 32). There were no exceptions to the application of IAS/IFRS. The corporate financial statements comprise the balance sheet, income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity, cash flow statement and the notes. The financial statements are accompanied by the Sole Director's report on operations and the Company's situation. The financial statements are clear and provide a true and correct representation of the equity, financial position and results of operations for the period. If the information required by the international accounting standards and the provisions contained in "Instructions for the preparation of financial statements of financial intermediaries (...)" issued by the Bank of Italy on 13 March 2012 were not sufficient to provide a true and correct, relevant, reliable, comparable and understandable presentation, the additional information necessary for such purpose is included in the notes The balance sheet and income statement schedules are made up of items, identified by numbers, sub-items, identified by letters, and additional information details, the "of which" of items and sub-items. The items, sub-items and information details make up the accounts of the financial statements. Data for 2011 are presented in comparison with the previous year 2010. In accordance with art. 5 of Legislative Decree no. No. 38/2005, the financial statements are prepared using the euro as reporting currency.

15 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

The amounts in the financial statements, the data reported in the notes, as well as those indicated in the Report are expressed in euros, unless otherwise indicated. Securitisation transactions The accounting recognition of purchased receivables, securities issued and other transactions carried out as part of securitisation transaction(s) is described in a special section of the Notes and does not form part of the financial statements, pursuant to administrative regulations issued by the Bank of Italy in accordance with art. 9 of Legislative Decree 38/2005, or the Bank of Italy's instructions of 14 February 2006, and most recently the Bank of Italy's instructions of 13 March 2012. This approach is also consistent with the provisions of Law no.130 of 30 April 1999, according to which "receivables relating to each transaction constitute separate assets in all respects from those of the Company and those associated with other transactions." Consequently, the amounts relating to the securitisation transaction, were not affected by the application of IAS/IFRS. For completeness it should be noted that, according to international accounting standards, the subject of accounting treatment of financial assets and/or groups of financial assets and financial liabilities arising from securitisation transactions is still under analysis by the bodies responsible for the interpretation of accounting standards. The accounting information and the qualitative and quantitative data relating to the securitisation transaction are highlighted in Part D, "Additional Information" of these Notes. Section 3 Events after the reporting period There were no events occurring after the reporting period that should be mentioned pursuant to IAS 10. Pursuant to IAS 10 it is hereby specified that these financial statements were authorized for issue on 26 April 2012. Section 4 Other issues None

16 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

A.2 SECTION ON MAIN ITEMS OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The accounting standards adopted for preparing these financial statements are described below, with reference to the main items of assets and liabilities. 1) Receivables a) recognition criteria Receivables are recorded in the Balance Sheet when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument, thus becoming the owner of rights, obligations and risks. This item includes amounts due from banks. b) classification and measurement criteria Receivables are initially recognised at their nominal value, as representing their fair value. Receivables are subsequently measured at amortised cost. The amortised cost method is not used for short-term receivables, as the effect of discounting to present value is deemed to be immaterial. Therefore, these receivables continue to be measured at their initial carrying value. c) derecognition criteria Receivables are derecognised when they are sold, substantially transferring all the risks and benefits attached to them. In case this is not ascertainable, the receivables are derecognised when no control whatsoever is maintained over them. Furthermore, the receivables sold are derecognised if the Bank retains the contractual right to the related cash flows but at the same time it assumes a contractual obligation to pay precisely those cash flows to third parties. 2) Current and deferred taxes a) recognition criteria The effects of current and deferred taxes calculated in accordance with national legislation are recognised on the basis of accrual accounting, consistent with the recognition in the financial statements of the costs and revenues from which they arose, by applying the tax rates in force. Current taxes, payable or receivable, include the net balance, for each individual tax, between current liabilities and the related tax receivables. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences - without time limits - between the value attributed to an asset or a liability in accordance with the Italian Civil Code and the corresponding values for tax purposes. These deferred tax assets and liabilities, and deferred tax assets resulting from tax losses, are recognised to the extent that it is reasonably likely they will be absorbed in subsequent years. b) classification and measurement criteria Deferred tax assets and liabilities are systematically assessed to take into account any changes in applicable laws or rates. Any provisions set against tax risks is also subject to adjustments to meet the costs arising from already notified tax assessment or ongoing litigation with tax authorities.

17 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

c) recognition criteria of Income Statement items If the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to items affecting the income statement, the contra item is income taxes. When deferred tax assets and liabilities regard transactions recognised directly in equity, with no impact on the income statement (such as the measurement of available-for-sale financial assets), they are recognised in equity, in separate reserves where applicable. 3) Other liabilities a) recognition criteria Liabilities are recognized for accounting purposes at the time the contractual obligation is incurred by the Company. This item includes trade payables. b) classification and measurement criteria They are initially recognised at nominal value, and continue to be reported at the initial cost as this is an approximation of fair value. c) derecognition criteria Payables are derecognised when they are extinguished or expired. 4) Interest income and expense and similar Interest income and expense are recognized on a time basis that takes into account the effective return. Interest on short-term receivables/payables for which the amortised cost is not applied is recognized according to the pro-rata temporis accrual of the nominal interest rate contractually established.

4 Part D - Other Information Section 1 - Specific references to activities

F. SECURITISATION OF RECEIVABLES At 31 December 2011, the Company had two Programmes and three stand-alone Transactions outstanding for the securitisation of performing consumer loans: • The first started in 2003 and is called "2,500,000,000 Euro Medium Term Asset-

Backed Notes Programme";

• The second is named "2,500,000,000 Euro Medium Term Asset-Backed Notes Programme IV," whose notes were issued in December 2009;

• The first stand-alone Transaction is named "411,000,000 Class A - 2011 and 129,000,000 Class B - 2011 Asset-Backed Floating Rate Notes", whose notes were issued in March 2011.

• The second stand-alone Transaction is called "532,000,000 Class A - 2011 – 2 and 95,000,000 Class B - 2011 – 2 Asset-Backed Floating Rate Notes", whose notes were issued in October 2011.

• The third stand-alone Transaction is named "Up to €750,000,000 Class A Asset-Backed Floating Rate Variable Funding Notes and Up to €306,338,100 Class B Asset-Backed Variable Funding Notes” whose notes were issued in November 2011.

As stated above, on 15 July 2011 the portfolio of programmes launched in March and December 2008, were repurchased by the Originator and the entire amount of the notes was redeemed in advance. Within each outstanding Transaction, the Company acquired an initial portfolio of performing consumer loans and at the same time it entered into a framework agreement that gives it the right to acquire additional portfolios with the same characteristics. The first two programmes are carried out pursuant to Law 130/99 with the company Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A., as originator, in the form of issue programmes, according to a scheme that is similar to the so called "Master Trust" transactions, as they are performed in Italy. The loans acquired by the vehicle, within each Transaction, make up a single asset, with no segregation between the loans purchased from time to time. As a result, the securities of each series, consisting of different classes, which have different degrees of subordination with respect to one another, are backed by the entire loan portfolio purchased over the life of the programme.

Under the Programme launched in 2003 the Company carried out four sets of issues for a total of €2,100,000,000, substantially using up the capacity originally agreed:

• Golden Bar Programme Series 1 – 2004, 17 March 2004; • Golden Bar Programme Series 2 – 2004, 09 December 2004;

• Golden Bar Programme Series 3 – 2006, 08 February 2006; • Golden Bar Programme Series 4 – 2007, 31 January 2007;

27 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

During the year no revolving without recourse purchases were made aimed at reconstituting the portfolio through the revolving purchase of additional loans funded by the principal collections available. In 2011, the Company continued the redemption of Class A Series 2, Series 3 and Series 4, already initiated, respectively, in 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010. In 2011, repayments were made amounting to €8,390,000 for the Series 1, €60,296,949 for the Series 2, €138,980,209 for the Series 3 and €349,392,096 for the Series 4. Under the second Programme, started in 2007, the Company issued the first series of notes on 11 March 2008 for a total of €700,000,000, divided into four classes with decreasing degree of subordination. During the year the Company has reconstituted the portfolio through revolving purchases for an amount of €60,079,302. On 15 July 2011 this Programme was terminated in advance and the related securities were fully redeemed, for a total amount of €700,000,000. Under the third Programme, which commenced by purchasing an initial portfolio of performing loans for €750,002,164, on 23 December 2008 the Company issued the first series of notes totalling €750,000,000, divided into four classes with decreasing degree of subordination. During the year the Company has reconstituted the initial portfolio through revolving purchases for an amount of €135,204,669. On 15 July 2011 this Programme was terminated in advance and the related securities were fully redeemed, for a total amount of €750,000,000. Under the fourth Programme, which commenced by purchasing an initial portfolio of performing loans for €800,001,181, on 23 December 2009 the Company issued the first series of notes totalling €800,000,000, divided into three classes with decreasing degree of subordination and entirely subscribed by the Originator. During the year the Company has reconstituted the initial portfolio through revolving purchases for an amount of €283,947,440. The three stand-alone Transactions, are made pursuant to Law 130/99 through an initial purchase financed by means of a single securities issue. The first stand-alone Transaction, started in the previous year with the purchase of a portfolio of performing loans for a total of €600,001,249, was finalised in March 2011 through the issue of one series of notes totalling €600,000,000, divided into three classes with decreasing degree of subordination. The class A security was subscribed for an amount of €150,000,000 by an institutional investor and an amount of €261,000,000 by Santander Consumer Bank SpA, while the remaining classes of securities were fully subscribed by the Originator. During the year the Company has reconstituted the initial portfolio through revolving purchases for an amount of €199,703,967. Under the second stand-alone Transaction, which started in August 2011 through the purchase of an initial portfolio of performing loans for €950,000,104, on 12 October 2011 the Company issued the first and only series of notes totalling €950,000,000, divided into three classes with decreasing degree of subordination and entirely subscribed by the Originator.

28 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

During the year the Company has reconstituted the initial portfolio through revolving purchases for an amount of €89,076,201. Under the last stand-alone Transaction, which was started in October 2011 through the purchase of an initial portfolio of performing loans for €710,058,081, on 21 November 2011 the Company issued the first and only series of notes totalling €710,058,081, divided into two classes with decreasing degree of subordination, both without rating. The A Class was fully privately subscribed by Bank of America National Association - London Branch, and the Junior security by Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A. The portfolio that was initially purchased will be reconstituted quarterly with portfolios having the same characteristics throughout the revolving period. During the year, the transactions were monitored by Moody's Investors Services and Standard & Poor's, with reference to the first Programme, by Standard & Poor's with reference to the fourth Programme, by Moody's Investors Services and Fitch Ratings Ltd with reference to the first stand-alone Transaction, by Moody's Investors Services and DBRS INc. with reference to the second stand-alone Transaction. As part of the Programmes, the rating companies are responsible for verifying that subsequent issues do not lead to a deterioration of the rating assigned to the previous ones. Santander Consumer Bank, as servicer, sends a "servicing report", on a quarterly basis, to the Calculation Agent, represented by Deutsche Bank S.p.A., for the two securitisation Programmes and for the first Stand Alone Transaction, and by Bank of New York Mellon for the second and third Stand Alone Transactions. By supplementing the information on the portfolio with financial data, the Calculation Agent produces an "Investor Report" for each transaction, which is distributed to the rating agencies, investors and the international financial community; the reports provide analytical information on collection performance and the major events that may concern the securitised loans (early redemptions, late payments, defaults, etc..). As servicer, Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A. is responsible, among other things, for managing collections from customers, immediately crediting the funds collected to the SPV and, finally, activation of debt recovery procedures, where necessary. The qualitative and quantitative information on individual securitisation transactions are listed in the Annex to these notes.

Section 3 – Information on Risks and Hedging Policies 3.1 CREDIT RISK QUALITATIVE INFORMATION 1 GENERAL INFORMATION a) ORDINARY OPERATIONS -

The Company is not subject to credit risk as it has only current account deposits.

b) SEGREGATED ASSET - The securitisation transaction is subject to the risks arising from: - mismatch in cash flows - failure to collect amounts owed by the assigned debtors; - failure of Servicer to perform the tasks and commitments taken, consisting in collecting sufficient funds to meet the payment obligations arising from time to time from the securitisation. These risks are mitigated by the following techniques: (i) asset-backed securities issued totalling less than the gross book value of the

loans under the securitisation programme as a result of being granted a subordinated loan;

(ii) issue of a subordinated class of securities, subscribed by the originator, with repayment priority lower than the classes of senior securities.

3.2 MARKET RISKS 3.2.1 INTEREST RATE RISK QUALITATIVE INFORMATION 1 GENERAL ASPECTS a) ORDINARY OPERATIONS -

The Company is not subject to interest rate risk as it has only current account deposits.

b) SEGREGATED ASSET - Market risk is primarily represented by the potential loss arising from changes in interest rates. The securities issued in fact follow the trend of the Euribor variable market rate, while securitised assets have a fixed rate. As a result of this mismatch between interest rates on assets and liabilities, should the Euribor exceed a certain level, the Company may not have sufficient funds to pay all its obligations arising from the securitisation. Therefore, in order to protect the Company against fluctuations in interest rates payable on securities issued, at the same time as the issue of the notes, and for each series of securities, the Company entered into an Interest Rate Swap agreement to hedge this risk. More specifically, in the first Programme four agreements were signed, on 11 March 2004, 6 December 2004, 3 February 2006 and 26 January 2007, of which the first two with Deutsche Bank, the third and fourth with Banco Santander.

30 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

Within the fourth Programme the Company entered into a Hedging Agreement with the counterparty Banco Santander on 23 December 2009. For the stand alone Transaction "Golden Bar Stand Alone 2011-1" on 31 March 2011 the Company entered into a hedge agreement with the counterparty Banco Santander. For the stand alone Transaction "Golden Bar Stand Alone 2011-2" on 10 October 2011 the Company entered into a hedge agreement with the counterparty Banco Santander. For the stand alone Transaction "Golden Bar Securitisation 10" on 17 November 2011 the Company entered into a hedge agreement with the counterparty Banco Santander. To ensure accurate and individual hedging, the agreements were stipulated in such a way as to ensure, from time to time, the correspondence between the amount of receivables included in the portfolio and the notional amount to which

the hedge relates. 3.2.2 PRICE RISK QUALITATIVE INFORMATION 1 GENERAL ASPECTS a) ORDINARY OPERATIONS - The Company is not subject to price risk as it does not trade goods and services on the market.

b) SEGREGATED ASSET -

The segregated assets are not subject to price risk since the receivables owned by the Company are not traded but held until they are fully collected.

3.2.3 EXCHANGE RATE RISK QUALITATIVE INFORMATION 1 GENERAL ASPECTS a) ORDINARY OPERATIONS -

The Company is not subject to exchange rate risk as it only operates in the domestic market and is therefore not exposed to exchange rate risk.

b) SEGREGATED ASSET - The segregated assets are not subject to exchange rate risk as the related receivables are only at a domestic level.

31 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

3.3 OPERATIONAL RISK

QUALITATIVE INFORMATION 1. GENERAL ASPECTS, MANAGEMENT AND MEASUREMENT OF OPERATIONAL RISK It is the risk to incur losses caused by inefficiencies in business processes, technological systems failures, external events that cause or may cause tangible and measurable losses for the Company. According to the Basel Committee unexpected losses can be attributed to the occurrence of four factors: human error, system failures, inadequate procedures and controls, external events. Operational risk is a pure risk as it is associated to events having only adverse effects. The ability of the Company to meet its obligations arising from the securitisation totally depend on third parties that have been delegated all the characteristic functions of an organizational structure as well as the internal control systems; indeed, the Company, by its nature, has no employees. More specifically, the success of the securitisation transaction depends on the ability of the Servicer to manage the loan portfolio according to the Servicing Agreement's provisions. Therefore, in order to mitigate the risk arising from Servicing activities and to ensure that the receivables are managed in a consistent and uniform manner, the Servicer: - acknowledged that its obligations under the Servicing agreement are the same

obligations it has to meet in the normal course of its business; - has undertaken to manage the servicing activities with the best professional

diligence, it being understood that, if in carrying out its tasks, it identifies a conflict between its interests as a provider of services in relation to the assigned debtors and the interests of the Company, the Servicer shall report this circumstance to the Company and the Representative of the Noteholders and, in any case, it shall act only in accordance with the directives issued by them;

- undertook to perform the Servicing activities through its operating structure, ensuring that it is equipped with all the infrastructure, the technical, organizational and IT resources necessary for efficiently performing the aforementioned activities.

3.4 LIQUIDITY RISK

QUALITATIVE INFORMATION 1 GENERAL ASPECTS, MANAGEMENT AND MEASUREMENT OF LIQUIDITY RISK a) Ordinary operations - The Company is not subject to liquidity risk as it has "Loans to Banks" of €11,000 consisting of sight current account deposits. b) Segregated asset - For the Company, liquidity risk is mainly represented by the mismatch in cash flows from the securitised loan portfolio and its payment obligations emerging from the securitisation Transaction. This risk is mitigated both by the techniques discussed in the context of credit risk and by Interest Rate Swaps, which are entered into when there appears to be an interest rate risk that needs to hedged.

B - Qualitative information Golden Bar Securitisation Programme B1) Description of the transaction and performance thereof

The securitisation transaction completed pursuant to Law 130/99 had the following essential characteristics:

• On 22 December 2003 the initial purchase of loans was completed for an amount of €200,002,344, effective on 18 December 2003; subsequently, in March 2004, the Company financed this purchase by issuing securities with a total value of €200,000,000 (Golden Bar Securitisation Programme - Series 1/2004).

• Also on 22 December 2003, the Company entered into a framework agreement with Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A., with registered office in Turin, Via Nizza 262, ABI code 03191, according to which, except in the event of early amortisation, the latter may sell additional loan portfolios of the same type, pursuant to and in accordance with Articles 1 and 4 of Law 130/99. The Company may buy these loans, within the limits of its principal collections arising from its existing loan portfolio.

• The agreements referred to above are part of a wider framework agreement finalised in March 2004 and aimed at structuring a "Program of subsequent issues of securitised assets over time," launched with the support of Deutsche Bank as Arranger.

• This Programme provided for a series of sales of loans over time, from Santander Consumer Bank to Golden Bar, each financed by a new securities issue; the loans gradually acquired by Golden Bar represent a single asset, with no segregation between the loans purchased from time to time, according to a scheme similar to the so-called "Master Trust" transactions, as implemented in Italy.

• The portfolio consisting of each loan assignment, funded by issuing a series of securities, was reconstituted quarterly during the revolving period, allowing Golden Bar to purchase additional loans using the principal collections arising from its existing loan portfolio.

• The program is monitored throughout its duration by Moody's Investors Services and Standard & Poor's, whose responsibilities include, inter alia, verification that subsequent securities issues do not lead to a worsening of the rating assigned to the previous ones.

• The securitised receivables are made up of loans granted by the Assignor to its clients as part of its core lending business. In order for these loans to be transferred to the SPV, they must meet specific contractual requirements, such as that, at the time of sale, least one expired instalment has been regularly collected, there are no past due instalments and the historical record of unpaid instalments does not exceed three instalments. The sale of loans is carried out without recourse.

• In December 2004, as part of the Programme and according to Law 130/99, the second securities issue was completed, totalling €500,000,000 (named Golden Bar Programme Series 2 - 2004) aimed at purchasing the loans sold on 19 November 2004 (effective date 12 November) for an amount of €500,007,552.

• In November 2005, under the Programme and pursuant to Law 130/99, the third purchase of loans from the transferor Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A.

41 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

was completed for an amount of €700,008,227 funded through a subsequent securities issue totalling €700,000,000 (named Golden Bar Programme Series 3-2006), which took place on 8 February 2006.

• On 13 December 2006 the fourth sale of loans by the originator was finally completed for an amount of €700,005,785, which was finalised on 31 January 2007 by issuing the fourth securities series for an amount of €700,000. 000.

• With regard to the "Golden Bar Securitisation Programme" portfolio, in 2011 no additional performing loans were purchased on a revolving basis.

• On 22 August 2011, the Series 1 securities issued in 2004 were fully redeemed; at the same time, redemption of the Series 2 Class A securities was completed. During 2011, redemption of the series 2 class B securities began and redemptions of the Series 3 and 4 class A securities continued. In 2011, securities redemptions amounted respectively to €8,390,000 for the Series 1, €60,296,949 for the Series 2, €138,980,209 for the Series 3 and €349,392,096 for the Series 4.

To ensure accurate and individual hedging to the whole transaction, the agreements were stipulated in such a way as to ensure, from time to time, the correspondence between the amount of receivables in the portfolio and the notional amount to which

the hedge relates.

B - Qualitative information Golden Bar Securitisation Programme II B1) Description of the transaction and performance thereof

The securitization transaction, referred to as "Golden Bar Securitisation Programme II" under Law 130/99 had been completed with the following characteristics:

• On 19 December 2007 the initial purchase of loans was completed for an amount of €700,001,956, effective on 14 December 2007; the payment for the purchase was made on 11 March 2008, through the issue of securities with a total value of €700,000,000 (Golden Bar Securitisation Programme II - Series 1/2008).

• Also on 19 December 2007, the Company entered into a framework agreement with Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A., according to which, except in the event of early amortisation, the latter could sell additional loan portfolios of the same type, pursuant to and in accordance with Articles 1 and 4 of Law 130/99. The Company could buy these loans, within the limits of its principal collections arising from its existing loan portfolio.

• The agreements referred to above were part of a wider framework agreement finalised in March 2008 and aimed at structuring a programme of subsequent issues of securities over time, launched with the support of Banco Santander S.A. as Arranger.

• This Programme provided for a series of sales of loans from Santander Consumer Bank to Golden Bar, each financed by a new securities issue; the loans gradually acquired by Golden Bar represented a single asset, with no segregation between the loans purchased from time to time.

• The portfolio consisting of each loan assignment, funded by issuing a series of securities, was reconstituted quarterly during the revolving period, allowing Golden Bar to purchase additional loans using the principal collections arising from its existing loan portfolio.

• The program was monitored throughout its duration by Standard & Poor's Rating Services, whose responsibilities included, inter alia, verification that subsequent securities issues did not lead to a worsening of the rating assigned to the previous ones.

• The securitised receivables were made up of loans granted by the Originator to its clients as part of its core lending business. In order for these loans to be transferred to the SPV, they had to meet specific contractual requirements, such as that, at the time of sale, at least one expired instalment had been regularly collected, there were no past due instalments and the historical record of unpaid instalments did not exceed three instalments. The sale of loans was carried out without recourse.

• With regard to the "Golden Bar Securitisation Programme II" in 2011 only one sale of loans took place on a revolving basis, amounting to €60,079,302.

• On 15 July 2011 this Programme was terminated in advance and the related securities were fully redeemed.

The main relationships and obligations between the Assignor Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A. and the Assignee Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. were regulated in the sale agreement, the guarantee and indemnity agreement and the servicing agreement entered into in December 2007:

• Under the framework agreement for the sale of loans, the assignor, except in the event of early amortisation, could assign additional loan portfolios of the same type, pursuant to and in accordance with Articles 1 and 4 of Law 130/99. The Company could buy those loans, within the limits of the proceeds collected from its existing receivables that were not immediately used for the fulfilment of the rights embedded in the securities issued. Under that agreement, the assignor undertook to promptly pay the assignee the price paid by the latter for the assigned receivable, in the event that the conditions were met, under which the assigned receivable is considered as non-existent, pursuant to law and the contract with the customer.

• According to the guarantee and indemnity agreement the Assignor had provided, among other things, certain representations and warranties to the Assignee in relation to its legal and financial status, the receivables and its ownership thereof, and the terms and conditions of their sale.

• By means of the servicing agreement, entered into on 19 December 2007, Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. appointed the assignor- including on behalf of the Noteholders and the Cash Manager pursuant to art. 1411 of the Italian Civil Code -

57 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

to carry out the collection of the assigned receivables and manage collection procedures.

• The Assignor had subscribed the class D subordinated security, without rating and of a nominal value of €3,500,000 (contractual maturity in October 2024).

• As part of the Intercreditor agreement, the Assignor had accepted the payments

cascade by the assignee which provided, inter alia, that consideration for servicing activities is paid after payments to the banks and other service providers, but before interest payment and repayment of principal to securities holders.

B3) Characteristics of the issues In order to finance the purchase of the loan portfolio, Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. had issued securities denominated in Euros with the following characteristics:

• "Class A Limited Recourse Asset-Backed Notes" (Class A notes) with contractual maturity in October 2024 and a nominal value of €631,750,000 issued at par. The Class A notes had been rated Aaa by Moody's Investors Service Inc. and AAA by Standard & Poor's. With reference to the Programme launched in March 2008, it should be noted that on 5 March 2010 Moody's Investors Service, as a result of the combined effect of prudential changes introduced in its valuation models and the deterioration (though not dramatic) of the portfolio quality, had announced the downgrading of the Class B Notes from Aa3 to A3 and the downgrading of the Class C notes from Baa2 to Ba3, while leaving the rating of the Class A notes unchanged. Again with reference to that Programme, on 24 March, the rating assigned by Moody's Investors Service to all the Notes of all the Classes had been withdrawn at the request of the issuer. Conversely, the rating assigned to those Notes by Standard & Poor's remained in force and unchanged since the date of issuance thereof. Holders of these notes were paid quarterly interest at a rate equal to three months Euribor plus 0.60% per year. The Class A notes were listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange.

• "Class B Limited Recourse Asset-Backed Notes" (Class B notes) with contractual maturity in October 2024 and a nominal value of €49,000,000 issued at par. The Class B notes had been rated Aa3 by Moody's Investors Service Inc. and A by Standard & Poor's. In relation to the rating cancellation by Moody's Investors Service Inc., see the information described in the preceding paragraph. Holders of these notes were paid quarterly interest at a rate equal to three months Euribor plus 1.75% per year.

• "Class C Limited Recourse Asset-Backed Notes" (Class C notes) with contractual maturity in October 2024 and a nominal value of €15,750,000 issued at par. The Class C notes had been rated Baa2 by Moody's Investors Service Inc. and BBB by Standard & Poor's. In relation to the rating cancellation by Moody's Investors Service Inc., see the information described in the preceding paragraph. Holders of these notes were paid quarterly interest at a rate equal to three months Euribor plus 3% per year.

58 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

• "Class D Limited Recourse Asset-Backed Notes" (Class D notes) with contractual

maturity in October 2024 and a nominal value of €3,500,000 issued at par. Class D notes were subordinated with respect to class A, B and C notes in terms of both principal repayment and payment of interest accrued thereon. These notes are without rating and have been subscribed by the Assignor. In accordance with the contractual terms, remuneration of class D notes corresponded to the excess spread, calculated as the difference between the quarterly accrued interest on the loan portfolio, the interest paid to investors in class A, B and C securities and the transaction operating costs.

• With reference to redemption priority of the securities issued, Class D redemption was contingent upon the fulfilment of obligations to the A, B and C classes. Class C redemption was contingent upon the fulfilment of obligations to the A and B classes, just as Class B redemption was contingent upon fulfilment of the obligations to class A. The Prospectus and the Intercreditor Agreement establish, in

detail, additional payments priorities.

B4) Ancillary financial transactions

In order to hedge interest rate risk, on 11 March 2008 Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. had entered into an Interest Rate Swap agreement with Banco Santander. This transaction was performed with the aim of turning the variable rate paid on the securities into a fixed rate.

To ensure accurate and individual hedging to the whole transaction, the agreement was stipulated in such a way as to ensure, from time to time, the correspondence between the amount of receivables in the portfolio and the notional amount to which

the hedge relates.

B5) Assignee's authorised transactions

Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. gave instructions to the Cash Manager that the sums resulting from payments made by the assigned debtors and not immediately used, be reinvested, on its behalf, in the Eligible investments, as defined in the Agency and Accounts Agreement in terms of liquidity and counterparty risk. To this end, liquidity was invested in a Deutsche Bank Liquidity Investment Fund until June 2009; as from that month, the funds have been invested on an ongoing basis in commercial paper denominated in euros and issued by Santander Consumer Finance S.A. (part of the Santander Group) as part of a special Programme. From April 2011 these funds have been invested on an ongoing basis in commercial paper denominated in euros and issued by Santander Commercial Papers (part of the Santander Group). During the year, commercial paper investments generated revenues of €473,328.

The main relationships and obligations between the Assignor Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A. and the Assignee Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. were regulated in the sale agreement, the guarantee and indemnity agreement and the servicing agreement entered into in November:

• Under the framework agreement for the sale of loans, the assignor, except in the event of early amortisation, could assign additional loan portfolios of the same type, pursuant to and in accordance with Articles 1 and 4 of Law 130/99. The Company could buy those loans, within the limits of the proceeds collected from its existing receivables that were not immediately used for the fulfilment of the rights embedded in the securities issued. Under that agreement, the assignor undertook to promptly pay the assignee the price paid by the latter for the assigned receivable, in the event that the conditions were met, under which the assigned receivable is considered as non-existent, pursuant to law and the contract with the customer.

• According to the guarantee and indemnity agreement the Assignor had provided, among other things, certain representations and warranties to the Assignee in relation to its legal and financial status, the receivables and its ownership thereof, and the terms and conditions of their sale.

• By means of the servicing agreement, entered into on 28 November 2008, Golden

Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. appointed the assignor- including on behalf of the

67 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

Noteholders and the Cash Manager pursuant to art. 1411 of the Italian Civil Code - to carry out the collection of the assigned receivables and manage collection procedures.

• The Assignor had subscribed the class A security at par for a nominal value of

€691,850,000 (contractual maturity in November 2025).

• As part of the Intercreditor agreement, the Assignor had accepted the payments cascade by the assignee which provided, inter alia, that consideration for servicing activities is paid after payments to the banks and other service providers, but before interest payment and repayment of principal to securities holders.

B3) Characteristics of the issues In order to finance the purchase of the loan portfolio, Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. had issued securities denominated in Euros with the following characteristics: • "Class A Limited Recourse Asset-Backed Notes" (Class A notes) with contractual

maturity in November 2025 and a nominal value of €691,850,000 issued at par. The Class A notes had been rated AA-by Standard & Poor's. The above rating was subject to ongoing monitoring by the mentioned company. Holders of these notes were paid quarterly interest at a rate equal to three months Euribor plus 0.60% per year. The Class A notes were listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. On 23 December 2008 the Assignor Santander Consumer Bank had subscribed the entire tranche.

• "Class B Limited Recourse Asset-Backed Notes" (Class B notes) with contractual maturity in November 2025 and a nominal value of €31,500,000 issued at par. The Class B notes had been rated A by Standard & Poor's. The above rating was subject to ongoing monitoring by the mentioned company. Holders of these notes were paid quarterly interest at a rate equal to three months Euribor plus 1.75% per year.

• "Class C Limited Recourse Asset-Backed Notes" (Class C notes) with contractual maturity in November 2025 and a nominal value of €21,400,000 issued at par.

maturity in November 2025 and a nominal value of €5,250,000 issued at par. Class D notes were subordinated with respect to class A, B and C notes in terms of both principal repayment and payment of interest accrued thereon. These notes, without a rating, were fully subscribed by the Spanish company Santander Consumer Finance according to a logic of optimal allocation of regulatory capital within the Group, in light of the changed international financial environment. In accordance with the contractual terms, remuneration of class D notes corresponded to the excess spread, calculated as the difference between the

68 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

quarterly accrued interest on the loan portfolio, the interest paid to investors in class A, B and C securities and the transaction operating costs.

• With reference to redemption priority of the securities issued, Class D redemption was contingent upon the fulfilment of obligations to the A, B and C classes. Class C redemption was contingent upon the fulfilment of obligations to the A and B classes, just as Class B redemption was contingent upon fulfilment of the obligations to class A.

In order to hedge interest rate risk, on 23 December 2008 Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. had entered into an Interest Rate Swap agreement with Banco Santander. This transaction was performed with the aim of turning the variable rate paid on the securities into a fixed rate.

To ensure accurate and individual hedging to the whole transaction, the agreement was stipulated in such a way as to ensure, from time to time, the correspondence between the amount of receivables in the portfolio and the notional amount to which

the hedge relates.

B5) Assignee's authorised transactions

Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. gave instructions to the Account Bank that the sums resulting from payments made by the assigned debtors and not immediately used, be reinvested, on its behalf, in the Eligible investments, as defined in the Agency and Accounts Agreement in terms of liquidity and counterparty risk. To this end, on 29 December 2008 the company's liquidity began to be invested on an ongoing basis in commercial paper denominated in euros and issued by Santander Consumer Finance S.A. (part of the Santander Group) as part of a special Programme. During the year, commercial paper investments generated revenues of €480,702.

B - Qualitative information Golden Bar Securitisation Programme IV B1) Description of the transaction and performance thereof

The securitisation transaction, referred to hereinafter as "Golden Bar Securitisation Programme IV" under Law 130/99 had been completed with the following characteristics:

• On 27 November 2009 the initial purchase of loans was completed for an amount of €800,001,181, effective on 04 November 2009; the payment for the purchase was made on 23 December 2009, through the issue of securities with a total value of €800,000,000 (Golden Bar Securitisation Programme IV - Series 1/2009).

• Also on 27 November 2009, the Company entered into a framework agreement with Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A., according to which, except in the event of early amortisation, the latter may sell additional loan portfolios of the same type, pursuant to and in accordance with Articles 1 and 4 of Law 130/99. The Company may buy these loans, within the limits of its principal collections arising from its existing loan portfolio.

• The agreements referred to above are part of a wider framework agreement finalised in December 2009 and aimed at structuring a programme of subsequent issues of securities over time, launched with the support of Banco Santander S.A. as Arranger.

• This Programme provides for a series of sales of loans from Santander Consumer Bank to Golden Bar, each financed by a new securities issue; the loans gradually acquired by Golden Bar represent a single asset, with no segregation between the loans purchased from time to time.

• The portfolio consisting of each loan assignment, funded by issuing a series of securities, is reconstituted quarterly during the revolving period, allowing Golden Bar to purchase additional loans using the principal collections arising from its existing loan portfolio.

• The program is monitored throughout its duration by Standard & Poor's Rating Services, whose responsibilities include, inter alia, verification that subsequent securities issues do not lead to a worsening of the rating assigned to the previous ones. As from 11 May 2011, in order to make the security eligible for monetary policy investments, the programme is also monitored by Moody's Investor Service.

• The securitised receivables are made up of loans granted by the Originator to its clients as part of its core lending business. In order for these loans to be transferred to the SPV, they must meet specific contractual requirements, such as that, at the time of sale, least one expired instalment has been regularly collected, there are no past due instalments and the historical record of unpaid instalments does not exceed three instalments. The sale of loans is carried out without recourse.

• With regard to the "Golden Bar Securitisation Programme IV" in 2011 the company carried out four loan purchases on a revolving basis amounting to €283,947,440.

The main relationships and obligations between the Assignor Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A. and the Assignee Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. were regulated in the sale agreement, the guarantee and indemnity agreement and the servicing agreement entered into in November:

• Under the framework agreement for the sale of loans, the assignor, except in the event of early amortisation, may assign additional loan portfolios of the same type, pursuant to and in accordance with Articles 1 and 4 of Law 130/99. The Company may buy those portfolios, within the limits of the proceeds collected from its existing receivables which are not immediately used for the fulfilment of the rights embedded in the securities issued. Under that agreement, the assignor undertook to promptly pay the assignee the price paid by the latter for the assigned receivable, in the event that the conditions were met, under which the assigned receivable is considered as non-existent, pursuant to law and the contract with the customer.

• According to the guarantee and indemnity agreement the Assignor provided, among other things, certain representations and warranties to the Assignee in relation to its legal and financial status, the receivables and its ownership thereof, and the terms and conditions of their sale.

• By means of the servicing agreement, entered into on 28 November 2008, Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. appointed the assignor- including on behalf of the Noteholders and the Cash Manager pursuant to art. 1411 of the Italian Civil Code -

78 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

to carry out the collection of the assigned receivables and manage collection procedures.

• The Assignor subscribed the whole securities issue at par for a nominal value of €800,000,000 (contractual maturity in October 2026).

• As part of the Intercreditor agreement, the Assignor has accepted the payment

cascade by the assignee which provides, inter alia, that consideration for servicing activities is paid after payments to the banks and other service providers, but before interest payment and repayment of principal to securities holders.

B3) Characteristics of the issues In order to finance the purchase of the loan portfolio, Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. has issued securities denominated in Euros with the following characteristics:

• "Class A Limited Recourse Asset-Backed Notes" (Class A notes) with contractual maturity in October 2026 and a nominal value of €648,000,000 issued at par. The Class A notes have been rated AAA by Standard & Poor's and Aa3 by Moody's Investor Service. The above rating is subject to ongoing monitoring by the mentioned companies. Holders of these notes are paid quarterly interest at a rate equal to three months Euribor plus 0.60% per year. The Class A notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. On 23 December 2009 the Assignor Santander Consumer Bank subscribed the entire tranche.

• "Class B Limited Recourse Asset-Backed Notes" (Class B notes) with contractual maturity in October 2026 and a nominal value of €124,000,000 issued at par. The Class B notes have been rated BBB by Standard & Poor's. The above rating is subject to ongoing monitoring by the mentioned company. Holders of these notes are paid quarterly interest at a rate equal to three months Euribor plus 1.3% per year. The Class B notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. On 23 December 2009 the Assignor Santander Consumer Bank subscribed the entire tranche.

• "Class C Limited Recourse Asset-Backed Notes" (Class C notes) with contractual maturity in October 2026 and a nominal value of €28,000,000 issued at par. Class C notes are subordinated with respect to class A and B notes in terms of both principal repayment and payment of interest accrued thereon. These notes are without rating and have been entirely subscribed by the Assignor Santander Consumer Bank. In accordance with the contractual terms, remuneration of class C notes corresponds to the excess spread, calculated as the difference between the quarterly accrued interest on the loan portfolio, the interest paid to investors in class A and B securities and the transaction operating costs.

• With reference to redemption priority of the securities issued, Class C redemption is contingent upon the fulfilment of obligations to the A and B classes. Class B redemption is contingent upon the fulfilment of obligations to the A class. The

79 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

Prospectus and the Intercreditor Agreement establish, in detail, additional payments

priorities.

B4) Ancillary financial transactions

In order to hedge interest rate risk, on 23 December 2009 Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. entered into an Interest Rate Swap agreement with Banco Santander. This transaction was performed with the aim of turning the variable rate paid on the securities into a fixed rate.

To ensure accurate and individual hedging to the whole transaction, the agreement was stipulated in such a way as to ensure, from time to time, the correspondence between the amount of receivables in the portfolio and the notional amount to which

the hedge relates.

B5) Assignee's authorised transactions

• Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. gave instructions to the Account Bank that the sums resulting from payments made by the assigned debtors and not immediately used, be reinvested, on its behalf, in the Eligible investments, as defined in the Agency and Accounts Agreement in terms of liquidity and counterparty risk. To this end, on 30 December 2009 the company's liquidity began to be invested on an ongoing basis in commercial paper denominated in euros and issued by Santander Consumer Finance S.A. (part of the Santander Group) as part of a special Programme. From April 2011 these funds have been invested on an ongoing basis in commercial paper denominated in euros and issued by Santander Commercial Papers (part of the Santander Group). At 31 December 2011, the total investment amounted to €112,633,966 and during the year it generated revenues of €1,043,123.

• The assignee may assign or transfer to third parties the framework agreement, or

the rights or obligations pertaining thereto by virtue of that agreement, and sell to third parties, in whole or in part, the loans acquired by Santander Consumer Bank.

On 23 December 2009 Santander Consumer Bank, in accordance with the requirements of the rating agency, granted a subordinated loan of €20,000,000 in support of the securities issue; this loan is fully repaid as at the balance sheet date.

Subject to the changes required and appropriate in order to adapt to the legislation from time to time in force, any changes to the procedures that may cause a material adverse effect on the rights of the assignee with respect to the Servicing Agreement or the assigned loans shall be subject to prior agreement between Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A., Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. and the Noteholders Representative.

• The agreements referred to above are part of a wider framework agreement finalised in October 2011 and aimed at structuring a securitisation transaction pursuant to Law 130/99, launched with the support of Banco Santander S.A. as Arranger.

• The securitised receivables are made up of loans granted by the Originator to its clients as part of its core lending business. In order for these loans to be transferred to the SPV, they must meet specific contractual requirements, such as that, at the time of sale, least one expired instalment has been regularly collected, there are no past due instalments and the historical record of unpaid instalments does not exceed three instalments.

The main relationships and obligations between the Assignor Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A. and the Assignee Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. were regulated in the sale agreement, the guarantee and indemnity agreement and the servicing agreement entered into in November 2011:

• Under the framework agreement for the sale of loans, the assignor, except in the event of early amortisation, may assign additional loan portfolios of the same type, pursuant to and in accordance with Articles 1 and 4 of Law 130/99. The Company may buy those portfolios, within the limits of the proceeds collected from its existing receivables which are not immediately used for the fulfilment of the rights embedded in the securities issued. Under that agreement, the assignor undertook to promptly pay the assignee the price paid by the latter for the assigned receivable, in the event that the conditions were met, under which the assigned receivable is considered as non-existent, pursuant to law and the contract with the customer.

• According to the guarantee and indemnity agreement the Assignor provided, among other things, certain representations and warranties to the Assignee in relation to its legal and financial status, the receivables and its ownership thereof, and the terms and conditions of their sale.

• By means of the servicing agreement, entered into on 31 October 2011, Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. appointed the assignor- including on behalf of the Noteholders and the Cash Manager pursuant to art. 1411 of the Italian Civil Code - to carry out the collection of the assigned receivables and manage collection procedures.

• The Assignor subscribed the securities issue at par for a nominal value of €210,058,000 (contractual maturity in June 2025). The remainder portion of €500,000,000 was subscribed by an institutional investor.

• As part of the Intercreditor agreement, the Assignor has accepted the payment cascade by the assignee which provides, inter alia, that consideration for servicing activities is paid after payments to the banks and other service providers, but before interest payment and repayment of principal to securities holders.

B3) Characteristics of the issues In order to finance the purchase of the loan portfolio, Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. has issued securities denominated in Euros with the following characteristics:

• "Class A Limited Recourse Asset-Backed Notes" (Class A notes) with contractual maturity in August 2025 and a nominal value of €500,000,000 issued at par. Holders of these notes are paid quarterly interest at a rate equal to three months Euribor plus 1.40% per year.

114 Financial Statements as at 31 December 2011

On 17 November 2011, an institutional investor subscribed at par the amount of €500,000,000 of Class A.

• "Class B Limited Recourse Asset-Backed Notes" (Class B notes) with contractual maturity in June 2025 and a nominal value of €210,058,000 issued at par. Class B notes are subordinated with respect to class A notes in terms of both principal repayment and payment of interest accrued thereon. These notes are without rating and have been entirely subscribed by the Assignor Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A. In accordance with the contractual terms, remuneration of class B notes corresponds to the excess spread, calculated as the difference between the quarterly accrued interest on the loan portfolio, the interest paid to investors in class A securities and the transaction operating costs.

With reference to redemption priority of the securities issued, Class B redemption is contingent upon the fulfilment of obligations to the A class. The Prospectus and the

Intercreditor Agreement establish, in detail, additional payments priorities.

B4) Ancillary financial transactions

In order to hedge interest rate risk, on 17 November 2011 Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. entered into an Interest Rate Swap agreement with Banco Santander. This transaction was performed with the aim of turning the variable rate paid on the securities into a fixed rate.

To ensure accurate and individual hedging to the whole transaction, the agreement was stipulated in such a way as to ensure, from time to time, the correspondence between the amount of receivables in the portfolio and the notional amount to which

the hedge relates.

B5) Assignee's authorised transactions

• Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. gave instructions to the Account Bank that the sums resulting from payments made by the assigned debtors and not immediately used, be reinvested, on its behalf, in the Eligible investments, as defined in the Agency and Accounts Agreement in terms of liquidity and counterparty risk. To this end, on 21 November 2011 investment of the company's liquidity began on an ongoing basis in commercial paper denominated in euros and issued by Santander Commercial Paper S.A. (part of the Santander Group) as part of a special Programme. At 31 December 2011, the total investment amounted to €73,592,282 and during the year it generated revenues of €120,625.

• The assignee may assign or transfer to third parties the framework agreement, or

the rights or obligations pertaining thereto by virtue of that agreement, and sell to third parties, in whole or in part, the loans acquired by Santander Consumer Bank S.p.A.

On 17 November 2011 Santander Consumer Bank, granted a subordinated loan of €14,201,160 in support of the securities issue; this loan is outstanding for the same amount as at the balance sheet date.

In compliance with the aforesaid principles, the audit was planned and carried out with the aim of acquiring all the elements necessary to ascertain whether the annual accounts contain significant errors and if they are, on the whole, reliable. The audit procedure includes an examination, on the basis of sample checks, of the probative elements supporting the balances and the information contained in the accounts, as well as an evaluation of the appropriateness and accuracy of the accounting criteria used and the reasonableness of the estimates made by the Sole Administrator. We consider that the work performed provides a reasonable basis for us to express our professional opinion. For the opinion relating to the annual accounts for the preceding year, the data for which are presented for purposes of comparison, reference is made to the report issued by us on 21

April 2011.

3. In our opinion, the annual accounts of Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. as of 31 December 2011 comply with the International Financial Reporting Standards adopted by the European Union, as well as with the instructions issued in implementation of Article 9 of Italian Legislative Decree no. 38/2005; they have therefore been drawn up with clarity and represent a true and accurate view of the balance of assets and financial position, the operating result and the cash flows of Golden Bar (Securitisation) S.r.l. for the financial year ending on that date. 2
