(y) replace itself under the related or substantially equivalent Hedge Agreement with a substitute<br />

Hedge Counterparty whose short-term and long-term debt ratings (or those of its guarantor) equal<br />

or exceed the above criteria and the appointment of which will enable Standard & Poor's Rating to<br />

issue a Rating Confirmation; or<br />

(z) take such other actions as is necessary to obtain Rating Confirmations.<br />

(c) If the Hedge Counterparty has a short term debt rating by Standard & Poor's below "A-3" and, if such<br />

Hedge Counterparty has a long term rating by Standard & Poor's, a long term debt rating by Standard & Poor's<br />

below "BBB-" or that has been suspended or withdrawn and the debt rating of such Hedge Counterparty's guarantor<br />

fails to equal or exceed the above criteria, then such Hedge Counterparty will be required, at its sole expense, to post<br />

collateral to the Issuer to secure the Hedge Counterparty's obligations under the Hedge Agreement and, while<br />

posting such collateral to the Issuer, such Hedge Counterparty will be required to transfer the Hedge Agreement, in<br />

whole, but not in part, to a counterparty that satisfies (or whose guarantor (with such guarantor's guarantee to<br />

comply with Standard & Poor's published criteria with respect to guarantees) satisfies) the debt ratings set forth in<br />

clause (i) and (ii) of the definition of "Required Hedge Counterparty Rating" within 10 days of the failure to equal or<br />

exceed the above criteria.<br />

The Indenture will require that if at any time any Hedge Agreement becomes subject to early termination due to<br />

the occurrence of specified events of default or termination events thereunder (such as a failure to make payments<br />

when due, bankruptcy or a change in law making the performance of the obligations under any Hedge Agreement<br />

unlawful and failure to comply with the remedial requirements described above following a failure to satisfy the<br />

required rating criteria described above) with respect to the related Hedge Counterparty, the Issuer and the Trustee<br />

(subject to the terms of the Indenture and in consultation with the Collateral Manager) will take such actions to<br />

enforce the rights of the Issuer and the Trustee thereunder as may be permitted by the terms of each Hedge<br />

Agreement and consistent with the terms of the Indenture, and will apply the proceeds of any such actions<br />

(including, without limitation, the proceeds of the liquidation of any collateral pledged by the related Hedge<br />

Counterparty), if the Collateral Manager determines that it is advisable to do so, to enter into a replacement Hedge<br />

Agreement(s) on substantially identical terms or on such other terms so long as (other than in the case of a Form-<br />

Approved Hedge Agreement) a Rating Confirmation is obtained from Standard & Poor's. Each Hedge Agreement<br />

also will be subject to early termination upon the occurrence of specified events of default or termination events<br />

thereunder (such as those described above) with respect to the Issuer. In addition, any termination payments payable<br />

by the Issuer to the related Hedge Counterparty upon an early termination of a Hedge Agreement will be paid in the<br />

priority specified therefor in "Application of Funds—Priority of Payments."<br />

If a Non-USD Debt Obligation related to a Currency Hedge becomes a Defaulted Obligation or is sold by the<br />

Issuer or is called or prepaid, such Currency Hedge will be terminated. If a Currency Hedge is terminated as a result<br />

of the related Non-USD Debt Obligation becoming a Defaulted Obligation, the Collateral Manager may, but shall<br />

not be required to, cause the Issuer to enter into additional, supplemental or replacement Currency Hedge, and each<br />

such Currency Hedge and related Hedge Counterparty is subject to the receipt of a Rating Confirmation from each<br />

Rating Agency with respect thereto (unless such Hedge Agreement is a Form-Approved Hedge Agreement). Upon<br />

written direction of the Collateral Manager, the Trustee shall agree to any such additional, supplemental or<br />

replacement Hedge Agreement.<br />

The Issuer will have the right to vary the procedures set forth above to comply from time to time with thenprevailing<br />

practices.<br />

The Hedge Agreements will be governed by New York law.<br />

Currency Hedges<br />

On or promptly after the purchase of a Non-USD Debt Obligation, the Issuer will enter into one or more<br />

Currency Hedges with respect to such obligation (or maintain one or more existing Currency Hedges in respect of<br />

the related Permitted Currency covering such Non-USD Debt Obligation as permitted below). If the Issuer<br />

maintains one or more existing Currency Hedges to cover such Non-USD Debt Obligation as permitted below and<br />

the scheduled termination date thereof does not comply with clause (iv) below, the Issuer may satisfy such<br />

clause (iv) by entering into an additional Currency Hedge that is a forward starting transaction satisfying such<br />
