| Abstract: | NEW YORK (Standard&Poor's) Sept. 30, 2008--Standard&Poor's Ratings Service said today that there are no implications for its ratings on Sovereign Bancorp (BBB/Stable/--) following the company's announcement that it has replaced its CEO. The appointment of Paul A Perrault, formerly of Chittenden Corp., to the positions of President and CEO reunites Mr. Perrault with Sovereign's CFO Kirk Walters, who served as Mr. Perrault's CFO at Chittenden. These managers were the core of a management team at Chittenden whose performance illustrated the benefits of an unrelenting focus on quality, risk management, customer knowledge, and basic banking discipline, values more recently adopted by Sovereign. The successful furthering of these principles at Sovereign would be a positive development.
