losses, damages, liabilities, indemnities or other obligations in connection with any transactions contemplated<br />
thereby. Recourse in respect of any obligations of the Issuer under the Securities Lending Agreement will be limited<br />
to the Collateral and on the exhaustion thereof all claims against the Issuer thereunder or any transactions<br />
contemplated thereby will be extinguished and will not thereafter revive. In addition, each Securities Lending<br />
Counterparty will be required to agree that it will not institute against the Issuer, or join, cause, cooperate with or<br />
encourage any other Person in instituting against the Issuer, any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership<br />
or similar proceeding so long as any Notes will be outstanding and there will have elapsed one year plus one day or,<br />
if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect, including, without limitation, any period established<br />
pursuant to the laws of the Cayman Islands since the last day on which any Notes will have been outstanding.<br />
The number of different Securities Lending Counterparties, when added to the number of Hedge Counterparties,<br />
Selling Institutions selling Participations and Synthetic Security Counterparties currently involved in transactions<br />
with the Issuer, may not exceed 15.<br />
A/B <strong>Exchange</strong>s<br />
The Indenture provides that, notwithstanding anything therein to the contrary, a Collateral Debt Obligation that<br />
is a security (the "A Item") may be exchanged for another security (the "B Item") solely for purposes of effecting an<br />
A/B <strong>Exchange</strong> (as defined below) with respect to the A Item if the Trustee shall have received (i) an Issuer Order<br />
with respect to such exchange and (ii) a certification from the Issuer that the relevant sections of the Indenture shall<br />
have been complied with in respect of such A/B <strong>Exchange</strong>. An "A/B <strong>Exchange</strong>" with respect to an A Item means an<br />
exchange of the A Item for (1) a B Item, which will be issued by the issuer or issuers of the A Item and will have<br />
substantially identical terms to the A Item, except that one or more restrictions on the ability of the holder to sell or<br />
otherwise dispose of the A Item (including the requirement that the holder deliver a prospectus to the transferee in<br />
such sale or other disposition) are intended to be inapplicable to the B Item and (2) cash or cash equivalents in<br />
settlement of fractional or unauthorized denominations of A Items tendered for exchange or B Items received in the<br />
exchange.<br />
Margin <strong>Stock</strong><br />
Regulation U governs certain extensions of credit by Regulation U Lenders. Under current interpretations of<br />
Regulation U by the FRB and its staff, the purchase of debt securities such as the Notes in a private placement may<br />
constitute an extension of credit. Among other things, Regulation U generally imposes certain limits on the amount<br />
of Purpose Credit that Regulation U Lenders may extend that is secured directly or indirectly by Margin <strong>Stock</strong>.<br />
Because Regulation U Lenders are not subject to the Regulation U credit limits with respect to extensions of credit<br />
that are not Purpose Credit, the provisions of the Indenture and the Collateral Management Agreement are intended<br />
to ensure that any credit extended by purchasers of the Notes is not Purpose Credit.<br />
Regulation U also generally requires Regulation U Lenders (other than persons that are banks within the<br />
meaning of Regulation U) to register with the FRB. Under an interpretation of Regulation U by the FRB staff,<br />
Qualified Institutional Buyers purchasing debt securities secured by Margin <strong>Stock</strong> in a transaction in compliance<br />
with Rule 144A are not required to register with the FRB where the proceeds of the securities are not used for<br />
Purpose Credit. Non-U.S. Persons purchasing Notes in reliance on Regulation S who do not have their principal<br />
place of business in a Federal Reserve District of the FRB also are not required to register with the FRB.<br />
Any purchaser of Notes who is not a bank (as defined in Regulation U) and is not required to register with the<br />
FRB will not be subject to any provisions of Regulation U. Any purchaser of the Notes who is a bank or who is<br />
already registered with the FRB as a Regulation U lender generally must obtain from any person to whom they<br />
extend credit secured by Margin <strong>Stock</strong> a Federal Reserve Form U-1 (for bank lenders) or Form G-3 (for non-bank<br />
lenders). Initial purchasers of the Notes may obtain a Form U-1 or G-3, as applicable, executed by the Issuer or the<br />
Co-Issuers, as applicable, from the Issuer, for execution and retention by such purchaser on or prior to the Closing<br />
Date. Form U-1 or Form G-3, as applicable, also will be made available by the Trustee to any investors in the Notes<br />
after the Closing Date. Each purchaser of Notes will be responsible for its own compliance with Regulation U,<br />
including the filing by the purchaser of any required registration or annual filings under Regulation U, and<br />
purchasers of Notes should consult with their own legal advisors as to Regulation U and its application to them.<br />
Purchasers of Notes not otherwise exempt from registering with the FRB will be deemed to have covenanted and<br />
