In addition, none of the Noteholders or any other Secured Party may, except the Security Trustee,<br />

until the expiry of one year and one day from but excluding the date of redemption of the latest maturing Note:<br />

(a)<br />

(b)<br />

take any corporate action or other steps or legal proceedings for the bankruptcy,<br />

reorganisation, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium, controlled management, winding-up or<br />

liquidation proceedings or other proceedings under applicable bankruptcy or similar law in<br />

connection with any obligations of the Issuer relating to the Notes of any Class, the Security<br />

Trust Deed or otherwise owed to the Secured Parties including the appointment of an<br />

administrative receiver or analogous officer of the Issuer or of any or all the revenues and<br />

assets of the Issuer; or<br />

have any right to take any steps for the purpose of obtaining payment of any amounts payable<br />

to it under any of the Transaction Documents by the Issuer and shall not until such time take<br />

any steps to recover any debts whatsoever owing to it by the Issuer.<br />

For the avoidance of doubt, the above provision does not prevent the Controlling Class directing the<br />

Security Trustee to take steps to obtain payment of amounts payable under the Transaction Documents upon the<br />

security over the Collateral becoming enforceable, in accordance with the Security Trust Deed.<br />

Counterparty Credit Risk<br />

Investment in the Notes of any Class involves a degree of risk arising from fluctuations in the amount<br />

and timing of receipt of the principal and interest on the Collateral Debt Securities by or on behalf of the Issuer<br />

and the amounts of the claims of creditors of the Issuer ranking in priority to the holders of each Class of the<br />

Notes. In particular, Participations, Synthetic Securities, Structured Finance Securities, the Revolving Loan<br />

Facility Agreement, the Liquidity Facility Agreement, Securities Lending Agreements and Hedge Agreements<br />

generally involve the Issuer entering into contracts with counterparties. Pursuant to such contracts, the<br />

counterparties agree to make payments to the Issuer under certain circumstances as described therein. The<br />

Issuer will generally be exposed to the credit risk of the counterparty in respect of such payments.<br />

Credit Risk and Credit Ratings of Collateral Debt Securities<br />

Prospective purchasers of the Notes should be aware that the amount and timing of payment of the<br />

principal and interest on the Collateral Debt Securities will depend upon the detailed terms of the documentation<br />

relating to each of the Collateral Debt Securities and on whether or not any obligor thereunder defaults in its<br />

obligations.<br />

Credit ratings of debt securities represent the rating agencies’ opinions regarding their credit quality<br />

and are not a guarantee of quality. Rating agencies attempt to evaluate the safety of principal and interest<br />

payments and do not evaluate the risks of fluctuations in market value. Accordingly, credit ratings may not<br />

fully reflect the true risks of an investment. Also, rating agencies may fail to make timely changes in credit<br />

ratings in response to subsequent events, so that an issuer’s current financial condition may be better or worse<br />

than a rating indicates. Consequently, credit ratings of the Collateral Debt Securities will be used by the<br />

Collateral Manager only as a preliminary indicator of investment quality.<br />

Subordination<br />

Prior to enforcement of the security over the Collateral, interest in respect of the Senior Debt (other<br />

than any payment of interest representing the Revolving Loan Increased Margin) and payments in respect of the<br />

Commitment Fee are senior to interest on the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes, the Class E<br />

Notes and the Class F Secured Income Notes (except to the extent interest is paid on the Class F Secured<br />

Income Notes from amounts standing to the credit of the Collateral Enhancement Account which have been<br />

(i) transferred to the Collateral Enhancement Account in accordance with paragraph (EE) of Condition 3(c)(i)<br />

(Application of Interest Proceeds on Payment Dates); (ii) credited to the Collateral Enhancement Account as<br />

amounts representing Sale Proceeds of Collateral Enhancement Securities; or (iii) credited to the Collateral<br />

Enhancement Account as being a Collateral Manager Advance) and to principal in respect of the Notes and the<br />

Revolving Loan Facility.<br />

Prior to enforcement of the security over the Collateral, interest in respect of the Class B Notes is<br />

senior to interest on the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes, the Class E Notes, to interest representing the<br />

Revolving Loan Increased Margin and to interest on the Class F Secured Income Notes; (except for payment of<br />

interest on the Class F Secured Income Notes from amounts standing to the credit of the Collateral Enhancement<br />

Account which have been (i) transferred to the Collateral Enhancement Account in accordance with<br />
