Such Securities Lending Counterparties may be affiliates of the Placement Agent and/or affiliates of the<br />
Collateral Manager pursuant to one or more agreements (each, a "Securities Lending Agreement"), which<br />
arrangements may create certain conflicts of interest. See "Risk Factors—Certain Conflicts of Interest Relating to<br />
the Collateral Manager" and "—Certain Conflicts of Interest Relating to the Placement Agent." Collateral Debt<br />
Obligations that are loans must be loaned pursuant to a Securities Lending Agreement to a Securities Lending<br />
Counterparty that has posted with the Trustee and deposited into the Securities Lending Account, as collateral<br />
security to secure its return of such Collateral Debt Obligations, Securities Lending Collateral in an amount at least<br />
equal to 102% of the current market value (as determined by the Collateral Manager) of the loaned Collateral Debt<br />
Obligations and that are identical in terms of issue and class, each as required by the related Securities Lending<br />
Agreement and as further provided below; provided that Collateral Debt Obligations with a rating of "B3" or lower<br />
by Moody's or "B-" or lower by Standard & Poor's shall not be loaned. The value of the Securities Lending<br />
Collateral shall be determined daily by the Collateral Manager based on information obtained from a recognized<br />
pricing source. In addition, (i) the duration of any Securities Lending Agreement shall not exceed the Stated<br />
Maturity of the Notes and no Collateral Debt Obligations may be loaned pursuant to Securities Lending Agreements<br />
with maturity dates greater than 90 days; (ii) the Securities Lending Collateral shall be denominated in dollars and<br />
shall be subject to a first priority perfected security interest in favor of the Trustee or its agent and any Securities<br />
Lending Collateral in the form of funds may be invested in obligations of issuers having short-term debt ratings or a<br />
guarantor with such ratings of at least "P-1" from Moody's and at least "A-1" from Standard & Poor's; (iii) Collateral<br />
Debt Obligations representing no more than 20% of the Principal Collateral Value of the Collateral Debt Obligations<br />
may be loaned pursuant to Securities Lending Agreements; (iv) Collateral Debt Obligations representing no more<br />
than 15% of the Principal Collateral Value of the Collateral Debt Obligations may be loaned to a single Securities<br />
Lending Counterparty; and (v) each Securities Lending Agreement shall be on market terms as determined by the<br />
Collateral Manager in its reasonable business judgment (except as may be required below) and shall (1) require that<br />
the Securities Lending Counterparty return to the Issuer debt obligations that are identical (in terms of issue and<br />
class) to the loaned Collateral Debt Obligations; (2) require that the Securities Lending Counterparty pay to the<br />
Issuer such amounts as are equivalent to all interest and other payments that the owner of the loaned Collateral Debt<br />
Obligation is entitled to receive for the period during which the Collateral Debt Obligation is loaned; (3) require that<br />
each of the Rating Agencies shall have confirmed in writing that the entry into the given Securities Lending<br />
Agreement will not, at that time, result in the downgrade or withdrawal of the Rating Agency's ratings of the Notes;<br />
(4) satisfy any other requirements of Section 1058 of the Code and the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder,<br />
as certified by the Collateral Manager, unless the Issuer and the Trustee shall have received an opinion of tax<br />
counsel of nationally recognized standing in the United States experienced in such matters to the effect that the<br />
absence of such requirement in such Securities Lending Agreement will not cause the Issuer to be engaged, or<br />
deemed to be engaged, in a trade or business in the United States for United States federal income tax purposes or<br />
otherwise to be subject to United States federal income tax on a net basis or otherwise cause adverse tax<br />
consequences to the Issuer; (5) be governed by the laws of New York; and (6) permit the Issuer to assign its rights<br />
thereunder to the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture. Each Securities Lending Agreement shall provide that if either<br />
of the Rating Agencies downgrades a Securities Lending Counterparty such that the Securities Lending Agreement<br />
to which the Securities Lending Counterparty is a party is no longer in compliance with the requirements relating to<br />
the credit ratings of the Securities Lending Counterparty, then either (A) the Securities Lending Counterparty, within<br />
ten days thereof, shall (i) obtain a guarantor for the Securities Lending Counterparty's obligations under the<br />
Securities Lending Agreement and a Rating Confirmation from Standard & Poor's in respect thereto; (ii) reduce the<br />
percentage of the Aggregate Principal Balance of the collateral portfolio loaned to such downgraded Securities<br />
