Investmentfondsgesetz or Börsengesetz). Consequently, in Austria, the Notes may not be offered or sold directly<br />

Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, it will, during any period in which it is not subject to and in compliance<br />

with the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the United States Securities <strong>Exchange</strong> Act of 1934, as<br />

ENFORCEABILITY OF UNITED STATES JUDGMENTS<br />

The Issuer is a private company incorporated with limited liability in Ireland. Two of the directors of the<br />

effect service of process within the United States upon such persons to enforce against them judgments of courts<br />

of the United States predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal or state securities laws of the<br />

United States. There is doubt as to the enforceability in Ireland in original actions or in actions for enforcement<br />

of judgments of United States courts of civil liabilities predicated solely upon such securities laws.<br />

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS<br />

Certain matters contained herein are forward-looking statements. Such statements appear in a number of<br />

places in this Offering Circular, including with respect to assumptions on prepayment and certain other<br />

characteristics of the Libra Loan and reflect significant assumptions and subjective judgments by the Issuer that<br />

may or may not prove to be correct. Such statements may be identified by reference to a future period or<br />

periods and the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may”, “will”, “could”, “believes”, “expects”,<br />

“projects”, “anticipates”, “continues”, “intends”, “plans” or similar terms. Consequently, future results may<br />

differ from the Issuer’s expectations due to a variety of factors, including (but not limited to) the economic<br />

environment and changes in governmental regulations, fiscal policy, planning or tax laws in the United<br />

Kingdom or Ireland. Moreover, past financial performance should not be considered a reliable indicator of<br />

future performance and prospective purchasers of the Notes are cautioned that any such statements are not<br />

guarantees of performance and involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the<br />

Issuer. The Manager has not attempted to verify any such statements and does not make any representation,<br />

express or implied, with respect thereto.<br />

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY<br />

This Executive Summary highlights selected information regarding the Notes and the Libra Loan. This<br />

Executive Summary does not contain all of the information that a prospective investor in the Notes will need to<br />

consider in making an investment decision. Prior to investing in the Notes, prospective investors should<br />

read carefully this Offering Circular in full, including the information set forth under “Risk Factors”.<br />

The Libra Loan<br />

The Issuer, <strong>Titan</strong> <strong>Europe</strong> <strong>2007</strong>-1 (<strong>NHP</strong>) <strong>Limited</strong>, was incorporated in Ireland on 28 March <strong>2007</strong><br />

(registration number 437005) as a private company limited by shares under the Companies Acts 1963 to 2006 of<br />

Ireland. The registered office of the Issuer is at First Floor, 7 <strong>Exchange</strong> Place, International Financial Services<br />

Centre, Dublin 1, Ireland. The Issuer will issue the Notes on 24 May <strong>2007</strong> (or such other date as the Issuer and<br />

the Manager may agree) (the “Closing Date”) and will apply the proceeds (such proceeds from the sale of the<br />

Notes having an aggregate initial principal amount of £638,100,000) to acquire from Libra <strong>2007</strong> (<strong>NHP</strong>) <strong>Limited</strong><br />

(the “Loan Seller”) its interest in a senior tranche (the “Libra Loan”) of a whole mortgage loan (the “Libra<br />

Whole Loan”), together with a beneficial interest in the Related Security granted in respect of the Libra Whole<br />

Loan. The Libra Whole Loan is denominated in sterling and made to the Borrower (as defined herein), a limited<br />

liability company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Borrower”). The Libra Whole Loan<br />

is secured by, inter alia, mortgages or (in the case of Scottish properties) standard securities (each, a<br />

“Mortgage”) over: (a) the freeholds and overriding leases of 285 healthcare properties, which represent 96.5 per<br />

cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated<br />

Loan Amount; (b) the long leaseholds of seven healthcare properties, which represent 2.6 per cent. of the Cut-<br />

Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount;<br />

(c) the part freehold and part leasehold of two healthcare properties which represent 0.9 per cent. of the Cut-Off<br />

Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount; and<br />

(d) the freeholds of three staff accommodation properties, which represent less than 1.0 per cent. of the Cut-Off<br />

Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount<br />

(collectively, the “Properties”). In addition, the Libra Whole Loan is secured by: (a) charges over accounts into<br />

which rental income is paid in respect of the Properties; (b) a charge over the shares in all subsidiaries of each<br />

Obligor; (c) assignations of rents (under Scots law) or assignments of rental income (under English or Northern<br />

<strong>Irish</strong> law), as applicable; and (d) a floating charge over the assets and undertaking of each Obligor. See “Risk<br />

Factors—Loan Related Risks—Risks Relating to Rent Accounts” and “The Libra Loan and Properties”.<br />

As at the Cut-Off Date, the Libra Loan had an aggregate outstanding principal balance of £638,000,000 (the<br />

“Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance”), and the Libra Whole Loan had an aggregate outstanding<br />

principal balance of £1,172,000,000. Interest on the Libra Whole Loan will accrue at a floating rate equal to<br />

LIBOR plus 1.5000 per cent. Pursuant to the terms of an intercreditor deed (the “Senior Intercreditor Deed”),<br />

interest on the Libra Loan will accrue at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 0.9627 per cent. The Libra Whole Loan<br />

matures on 15 January 2009, or, upon extension, 15 January 2010. Pursuant to the terms of the Senior<br />

Intercreditor Deed, the Libra Whole Loan has been tranched into the following tranches, ranking in the<br />

following priority of payment: the Libra Loan, the “B0-1 Loan”, the “B0-2 Loan”, the “B1 Loan”, the “B2<br />

Loan”, the “B3 Loan” and the “B4 Loan” (each of the aforementioned tranches, other than the Libra Loan, a<br />

“B Loan” or a “Subordinate Tranche”, and, collectively, the “Subordinate Debt”).<br />

Tranches of the Libra Whole Loan Amount<br />

Libra Loan £638,000,000<br />

B0-1 Loan £100,000,000<br />

B0-2 Loan £198,838,700<br />

B1 Loan £54,000,000<br />

B2 Loan £66,000,000<br />

B3 Loan £63,000,000<br />

B4 Loan £52,161,300<br />

Total: £1,172,000,000<br />

The Subordinate Debt will not be held by the Issuer, but will, instead, be held by the Loan Arranger and/or<br />

third parties.<br />

The parent company of the Borrower (the “Shareholder”) is the borrower under a separate, subordinated,<br />

£70,000,000 loan (the “PIK Facility Loan”). The PIK Facility Loan is not held by the Issuer and will instead<br />

be held by third parties. The PIK Facility Loan is secured by a first fixed charge over the shares of the<br />

Borrower, and is guaranteed and subordinated pursuant to a guarantee and subordination deed. The guarantee<br />

11


under the guarantee and subordination deed is secured by the same security as that for the Libra Whole Loan,<br />

and each Guarantor also guarantees the Senior Debt (the “Guarantee and Subordination Deed”).<br />

Account in order to comply with the minimum Interest Cover covenant of 1.05x (and resulting in a Libra Whole Loan U/W DSCR of 1.00x based on no<br />

principal repayment). Excluding the benefit of the Cash Reserve Account, the Libra Whole Loan U/W ICR is 0.89x and the Libra Whole Loan U/W<br />

DSCR is 0.89x.<br />

(4) For the purposes of calculations in this document, LIBOR is assumed to be 4.8130%, which is equivalent to the fixed rate payable by the Borrower under<br />

the related Swap Transactions.<br />

(1) The Notes, other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes, will bear interest at three-month LIBOR plus the margin specified above. The Class X<br />

Notes and the Class V Notes will bear interest at a variable rate of interest, which, initially, will be the rate set forth under Condition 5(c)(ii) (Rate of<br />

Interest) of the “Terms and Conditions of the Notes” below.<br />

(2) The weighted average life (“Weighted Average Life”) of the period during which distributions of principal would be received (the “Principal<br />

Window”), and the Assumed Final Payment Date of, the Notes are based upon assumptions that there are no prepayments, no defaults, losses or<br />

delinquencies, no accelerations or extensions of the maturity of the Libra Loan or the Notes and upon the Modelling Assumptions described under<br />

“Estimated Average Lives of the Notes and Assumptions—Weighted Average Life of Notes” herein.<br />

(3) The Class V Notes will entitle the holders thereof to the Class V Amount not otherwise payable to the other classes of Notes, as described herein under<br />

“Terms and Conditions of the Notes—Condition 3(b) (Security and Priority of Payments)”. The Class V Notes are paid solely from amounts standing to<br />

the credit of the Class V Account and therefore do not rank against any other classes of Notes with respect to any amounts distributable from the<br />

Collection Account to such classes.<br />

Acquisition of the Libra Loan ................... On 3 April <strong>2007</strong>, the Libra Whole Loan was transferred from CS<br />

Funding 1 <strong>Limited</strong>, which was the “Original Lender”, to Libra<br />

<strong>2007</strong> (<strong>NHP</strong>) <strong>Limited</strong>, the “Loan Seller”.<br />

On the Closing Date, the Issuer will enter into an English law Loan<br />

Sale Agreement (the “Loan Sale Agreement”) relating to the Libra<br />

Loan with, among others, the Loan Seller, the Loan Arranger and<br />

the Note Trustee to acquire the Libra Loan, together with a<br />

beneficial interest in the Related Security, from the Loan Seller.<br />

Representations and Warranties ................ The Loan Sale Agreement will contain certain representations and<br />

warranties given by the Loan Arranger to the Issuer in relation to<br />

the Libra Loan and the Related Security. See “The Libra Loan and<br />

Properties—Loan Sale Agreement—Representations and<br />

Warranties”. The Loan Arranger will be required, if there has been<br />

a breach of any such warranty under the Loan Sale Agreement that<br />

materially and adversely affects the value of the Libra Loan and<br />

such breach is not capable of remedy, or, if capable of remedy, has<br />

not been remedied within 90 days of the Servicer or the Special<br />

Servicer notifying the Loan Arranger of such breach (or such<br />

longer period as the Issuer, the Servicer, Special Servicer (in the<br />

case of the Libra Loan becoming a Specially Serviced Loan) may<br />

agree), taking into account a written confirmation from S&P and<br />

Fitch (following notification to all the Rating Agencies) that no<br />

Adverse Rating Event will occur as a result of any such extended<br />

period or, if a Rating Agency has notified the Servicer or Special<br />

Servicer that, as a matter of policy, it will not issue such a<br />

confirmation, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable,<br />

determines that such extension would not be inconsistent with the<br />

Servicing Standard, to repurchase (or participate in) the Libra Loan<br />

from the Issuer.<br />

In the event the Loan Arranger is required to repurchase the Libra<br />

Loan, the repurchase price to be paid by the Loan Arranger will be<br />

an amount equal to 100 per cent. of the then outstanding principal<br />

balance of the Libra Loan, plus accrued interest and outstanding<br />

expenses plus any amount of outstanding Servicing Advances and<br />

P&I Advances (including interest) made with respect to the Libra<br />

Loan and, without duplication, all accrued and unpaid Servicing<br />

Fees or Special Servicing Fees allocable to the Libra Loan. Any<br />

such repurchase (or participation) would result in a redemption of<br />

the Notes in accordance with Condition 6(b) (Mandatory<br />

Redemption from Principal Distribution Amounts, Sequential<br />

17


Principal Distribution Amounts and Pro Rata Principal<br />

Prepayment Amounts).<br />

Description of the Libra Whole Loan<br />

Libra Whole Loan...................................... The Libra Loan, which represents 100.0 per cent. of the Initial<br />

Loan Balance, is the senior tranche of a whole loan to the Borrower<br />

(and together with the subordinate tranches, the “Libra Whole<br />

Loan”).<br />

The subordinate tranches of the Libra Whole Loan, the “B0-1<br />

Loan”, the “B0-2 Loan”, the “B1 Loan”, the “B2 Loan”, the “B3<br />

Loan” and the “B4 Loan” (each a “Subordinate Tranche”, and,<br />

collectively the “Subordinate Debt”) will not be held by the<br />

Issuer, but will instead be held by the Loan Arranger and/or certain<br />

third parties (each of the latter a “Subordinate Lender” and<br />

collectively, the “Subordinate Lenders”). Pursuant to the terms of<br />

an intercreditor deed (the “Senior Intercreditor Deed”) entered<br />

into in relation to the Libra Whole Loan with the Subordinate<br />

Lenders, the Libra Whole Loan has been tranched, each tranche<br />

being subordinate in priority of payment to the Libra Loan.<br />

The parent company of the Borrower (the “Shareholder”) is the<br />

borrower under a separate, subordinated £70,000,000 loan (the<br />

“PIK Facility Loan”). The PIK Facility Loan is not held by the<br />

Issuer and will instead be held by third parties. The PIK Facility<br />

Loan is secured by a first fixed charge over the shares of the<br />

Borrower, and is guaranteed and subordinated pursuant to a<br />

guarantee and subordination deed. The guarantee under the<br />

guarantee and subordination deed is secured by the same security<br />

as that for the Libra Whole Loan, and each Guarantor also<br />

guarantees the Senior Debt (the “Guarantee and Subordination<br />

Deed”). See “Risk Factors—Other Indebtedness, Liabilities and<br />

Financing” and “The Libra Loan and Properties—PIK Facility<br />

Intercreditor Deed”.<br />

The Libra Loan and Related Properties<br />

The Libra Loan .......................................... The Issuer’s assets will consist primarily of the senior tranche (the<br />

“Libra Loan”) under the Libra Whole Loan, which is secured by,<br />

inter alia, mortgages or (in the case of Scottish properties) standard<br />

securities (each, a “Mortgage”) over: (a) the freeholds and<br />

overriding leases of 285 healthcare properties, which represent 96.5<br />

per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance<br />

based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount;<br />

(b) the long leaseholds of seven healthcare properties, which<br />

represent 2.6 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan<br />

Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date<br />

Allocated Loan Amount; (c) the part freehold and part leasehold of<br />

two healthcare properties which represent 0.9 per cent. of the Cut-<br />

Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the<br />

aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount; and (d) the<br />

freeholds of three staff accommodation properties, which represent<br />

less than 1.0 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan<br />

Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date<br />

Allocated Loan Amount (collectively, the “Properties”). In<br />

addition, the Libra Loan is secured by: (a) charges over 241<br />

overriding leases which have been granted by the relevant<br />

freeholder, part freehold and part leasehold or long leasehold<br />

owner in the Borrower Group (the “Superior Landlord”) of the<br />

294 healthcare properties to other members of the Borrower Group;<br />

18


(b) charges over accounts into which rental income is paid in<br />

respect of the Properties; (c) a charge over the shares in all<br />

subsidiaries of each Obligor; (d) assignations of rents (under Scots<br />

law) or assignments of rental income (under English or Northern<br />

<strong>Irish</strong> law), as applicable; and (e) a floating charge over the assets<br />

and undertaking of each Obligor. For a more detailed description<br />

of the Libra Loan, see “The Libra Loan and Properties” below.<br />

Unless otherwise specified, all calculations are based on the<br />

principal balance of the Libra Loan as at the Cut-Off Date.<br />

Servicing, Hedging and Advancing<br />

Servicer...................................................... The Servicer will initially be responsible for the servicing and<br />

administration of the Libra Whole Loan, including the Subordinate<br />

Debt, and the Related Security under a servicing agreement<br />

between, inter alios, the Issuer, the Servicer and the Special<br />

Servicer dated the Closing Date (the “Servicing Agreement”).<br />

The services to be provided by the Servicer include, without<br />

limitation, the collection of payments of principal and interest on<br />

the Libra Whole Loan and the calculation of amounts of principal<br />

and interest payable by the Borrower on each Due Date. The<br />

Servicer will, subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement,<br />

receive a fee in an amount equal to 0.0090 per cent. per annum<br />

(plus VAT, if applicable (the “Servicing Fee”)) payable quarterly<br />

in arrear on the outstanding principal balance of the Libra Whole<br />

Loan. See “Servicing—Servicing Fee, Special Servicing Fee,<br />

Liquidation Fee and Workout Fee” below.<br />

Special Servicer ......................................... Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Servicing<br />

Transfer Event with respect to the Libra Whole Loan (during which<br />

time the Libra Loan and any related Subordinate Debt shall become<br />

a “Specially Serviced Loan”), as more particularly described<br />

under “Servicing” below, the Special Servicer will become<br />

responsible, save for certain limited exceptions, for specially<br />

servicing the Specially Serviced Loan. Subject to the terms of the<br />

Servicing Agreement, the Special Servicer will be entitled to<br />

receive certain fees, including (i) with respect to each Loan Interest<br />

Accrual Period, a fee in respect of the Specially Serviced Loan and<br />

any related Subordinate Debt in an amount equal to 0.1800 per<br />

cent. per annum (plus VAT, if applicable) of the principal amount<br />

outstanding of the Specially Serviced Loan (the “Special Servicing<br />

Fee”), (ii) a liquidation fee in an amount equal to 0.4000 per cent.<br />

(plus VAT, if applicable) (the “Liquidation Fee”) of the proceeds<br />

of liquidation of the Specially Serviced Loan or the related<br />

Property, pay-off or discounted pay-off of the Specially Serviced<br />

Loan or sale of the related Property in connection with an<br />

enforcement of the security, in each case net of costs and expenses<br />

and (iii) with respect to the Specially Serviced Loan that becomes a<br />

Corrected Loan, a workout fee in an amount equal to 0.4000 per<br />

cent. (plus VAT, if applicable) payable to the Special Servicer for<br />

so long as the Libra Whole Loan remains a Corrected Loan (the<br />

“Workout Fee”) applied to each collection of interest and principal<br />

received with respect to such Corrected Loan. See “Servicing—<br />

Servicing Fee, Special Servicing Fee, Liquidation Fee and Workout<br />

Fee” below.<br />

The Libra Whole Loan will cease to be a Specially Serviced Loan<br />

when the events giving rise to it becoming a Specially Serviced<br />

Loan have been cured or discharged in the manner described under<br />

“Servicing” below.<br />

19


Swap Agreements...................................... Prior to the Closing Date, the Swap Provider entered into a swap<br />

agreement with the Borrower in the form of the International<br />

Swaps and Derivatives Association Inc. (“ISDA”) 1992 Master<br />

Agreement (Multicurrency-Cross Border) (a “Swap Agreement”).<br />

In relation to the Swap Agreement, the Swap Provider has also<br />

entered into two separate swap confirmations, each evidencing the<br />

terms of a swap transaction, with the Borrower in respect of the<br />

Credit Agreement for the period (a) from the date of origination of<br />

the Libra Whole Loan up to 15 January 2010 (the “Spot Swap”),<br />

and (b) from 15 January 2010 up to 15 January 2017 (the<br />

“Forward Swap” and each of the Spot Swap and the Forward<br />

Swap, a “Swap Transaction” and collectively, the “Swap<br />

Transactions”) (the notional balance of each being equal to the<br />

principal balance of the Libra Whole Loan). The Libra Whole<br />

Loan matures on 15 January 2009, or, upon extension, 15 January<br />

2010.<br />

Pursuant to each Swap Transaction, the Borrower has agreed to<br />

make fixed rate payments against a notional balance which equals<br />

the principal balance of the Libra Whole Loan in exchange for<br />

three-month LIBOR. Save for the payment of any Swap<br />

Subordinated Amount, payments on the Spot Swap will be paid in<br />

priority to amounts payable on the Libra Whole Loan; payments on<br />

the Forward Swap relating to the Libra Whole Loan will be paid<br />

subordinate to payments of principal and interest on the Class A<br />

Notes and the Class X Notes (as to interest only).<br />

In addition, on or before the Closing Date, the Issuer will enter into<br />

a swap agreement with the Swap Provider in the form of the ISDA<br />

1992 Master Agreement (Multicurrency-Cross Border) (the “Basis<br />

Swap Agreement”). In relation to the Basis Swap Agreement, the<br />

Swap Provider has entered into a swap confirmation with respect to<br />

the Libra Loan (the “Basis Swap Confirmation”) evidencing the<br />

terms of such swap transaction (the “Basis Swap Transaction”),<br />

pursuant to which the Issuer will swap LIBOR as calculated on the<br />

reset date for amounts payable under the Libra Loan for LIBOR as<br />

calculated on the reset date for amounts payable in respect of the<br />

Notes. The Basis Swap Confirmation has an effective date of 15<br />

April <strong>2007</strong> and a termination date of 20 January 2010.<br />

See further “Description of the Swap Transactions” below.<br />

Advances ................................................... Subject to the limitations described below, the Advance Provider<br />

and the Backup Advance Provider will make, as to the Libra Loan<br />

and the Properties, in each case in accordance with the terms of the<br />

Servicing Agreement:<br />

(a) advances (“P&I Advances”) in respect of the aggregate of all<br />

amounts to be received by the Issuer on the Libra Loan during<br />

any Loan Interest Accrual Period (other than the Balloon<br />

Payment and any amounts received or receivable under the<br />

Libra Loan due to any voluntary or mandatory prepayments<br />

thereunder) and any Assumed Scheduled Payments, net of<br />

related Special Servicing Fees due or deemed due, as the case<br />

may be, in respect of the Libra Loan, on their respective Due<br />

Dates during (or deemed to be due during) the related<br />

Collection Period to the extent such amounts were not paid by<br />

or on behalf of the related Borrower or otherwise collected<br />

(including as net income from MIP Properties) as of the close<br />

of business on the last day of the related Loan Interest Accrual<br />

20


Period (such amounts, collectively, the “P&I Required<br />

Amounts”); and/or<br />

(b) certain other advances (“Servicing Advances” and,<br />

collectively with P&I Advances, “Advances”, and each, an<br />

“Advance”) with respect to any Property to the extent<br />

necessary to pay ground rents, taxes and insurance premia that<br />

the related Borrower failed to pay, for certain other property<br />

related expenses and for a shortfall in the amount of funds<br />

available to the Issuer to pay expenses due to third parties<br />

(including, to the extent such expenses were unanticipated, the<br />

amounts set forth under paragraphs (a) and (b) of the definition<br />

of “Revenue Priority Amounts”), and, to the extent a Loan<br />

Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, amounts set<br />

forth in paragraph (c) of the definition of “Revenue Priority<br />

Amounts”).<br />

Neither the Advance Provider nor the Backup Advance Provider<br />

will be required to make any P&I Advance with respect to any<br />

Subordinate Debt. In the case of any Advance with respect to the<br />

Libra Loan that is subject to an Appraisal Reduction, the P&I<br />

Advances due in respect of the Libra Loan will be reduced in the<br />

manner described under “Servicing—Appraisals and Valuations”<br />

below.<br />

To the extent that the Advance Provider fails to make any Advance<br />

required of it, the Backup Advance Provider will be obliged to<br />

make such required Advance.<br />

Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Advance Provider nor<br />

the Backup Advance Provider will be obliged to make Advances to<br />

the extent that such Advances would, if made, in the sole judgment<br />

of the Advance Provider or the Backup Advance Provider (based<br />

on advice received by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the<br />

case may be, acting in accordance with the Servicing Standard), not<br />

be ultimately recoverable from Late Collections or any other<br />

recovery on or in respect of the Libra Loan (whether or not it is a<br />

MIP Loan) or, in connection with any Advance made with respect<br />

to amounts set forth under paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) of the<br />

definition of “Revenue Priority Amounts”, would not be<br />

ultimately recoverable from collections on the Libra Loan (in each<br />

case, a “Nonrecoverable Advance”). The Advance Provider and<br />

the Backup Advance Provider, as applicable, will be entitled to rely<br />

conclusively upon any such determinations of recoverability made<br />

by the Servicer or the Special Servicer.<br />

Each of the Advance Provider and the Backup Advance Provider,<br />

as the case may be, to the extent of any Advance that has been<br />

made, will be entitled to reimbursement for such Advance from the<br />

Collection Account upon receipt from the Borrower of the related<br />

Late Collections or amount for which such Advance was made. In<br />

addition, the Advance Provider or the Backup Advance Provider,<br />

as applicable, is entitled to recover, from general funds on deposit<br />

in the Collection Account any Advance made that the Servicer or<br />

the Special Servicer, as applicable, determines (in accordance with<br />

the Servicing Standard) to be a Nonrecoverable Advance, plus<br />

interest at the Reimbursement Rate.<br />

All Advances will bear interest on the outstanding amount thereof<br />

for the period during which the advance is outstanding at a rate<br />

equal to the Reimbursement Rate.<br />

21


See “Servicing—Advancing” below.<br />

Controlling Class and Controlling Party<br />

Controlling Class ....................................... The “Controlling Class” of Notes will be the most junior class of<br />

Notes (other than the Class X Notes or the Class V Notes)<br />

outstanding from time to time; provided, however, that such class<br />

of Notes’ Proportion Ratio is not less than 25 per cent. of its<br />

Proportion Ratio as of the Closing Date, as determined by the Cash<br />

Manager. If no class satisfies this requirement, the Controlling<br />

Class will be the most junior class of Notes then outstanding (other<br />

than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes). The Note Trustee<br />

shall determine which class of Notes meets the Controlling Class<br />

Test and shall notify the Servicer and Special Servicer accordingly.<br />

The “Proportion Ratio” for any class of Notes as of any date of<br />

calculation is the ratio of its Principal Amount Outstanding to the<br />

Principal Amount Outstanding of all of the Notes. The majority<br />

holders of the Controlling Class will have the right to appoint the<br />

Controlling Class Representative. Initially the Class E Notes will<br />

be the Controlling Class.<br />

The Conditions and the Servicing Agreement permit the majority<br />

holders of the Controlling Class to appoint a representative (the<br />

“Controlling Class Representative”) to represent the interests of<br />

the Controlling Class, with such appointment effective upon<br />

written notice being given to each of the Issuer, the Note Trustee,<br />

the Servicer and the Special Servicer.<br />

Controlling Party ....................................... The “Controlling Party” means (i) for as long as no Control<br />

Valuation Event is continuing, the Representative for the B4 Loan;<br />

(ii) for as long as a Control Valuation Event for the B4 Loan (a “B4<br />

Loan Control Valuation Event”), but no other Control Valuation<br />

Event, is continuing, the Representative for the B3 Loan; (iii) for as<br />

long as a B4 Loan Control Valuation Event and a Control<br />

Valuation Event for the B3 Loan (a “B3 Loan Control Valuation<br />

Event”), but no other Control Valuation Event, are continuing, the<br />

Representative for the B2 Loan; (iv) for as long as a B4 Loan<br />

Control Valuation Event, a B3 Loan Control Valuation Event and a<br />

Control Valuation Event for the B2 Loan (a “B2 Loan Control<br />

Valuation Event”), but no other Control Valuation Event, are<br />

continuing, the Representative for the B1 Loan; (v) for as long as a<br />

and a Control Valuation Event for the B0-1 Loan (a “B0-1 Loan<br />

Control Valuation Event”), but no other Control Valuation Event,<br />

are continuing, the Controlling Class Representative.<br />

Rights of the Controlling Party.................. The Servicing Agreement will provide, among other things, that the<br />

Controlling Party will have no ability to take direct action in<br />

22


espect of the timing or manner of enforcement of any Related<br />

Security with respect to the Libra Loan. However, the Controlling<br />

Party will have certain consultation and approval rights on certain<br />

matters with respect to the Libra Loan and will be entitled to<br />

instruct the Issuer or the Note Trustee to remove and replace the<br />

Special Servicer, each as more fully described in “Servicing—<br />

Rights of the Controlling Party” and “—Termination of<br />

Appointment of Servicer or Special Servicer” below.<br />

The Notes<br />

Status and Form......................................... The Notes will be issued in registered global form in minimum<br />

denominations of £50,000 and certain integral multiples in excess<br />

thereof, as described below. Each class of Notes will have the<br />

initial principal amount set forth below:<br />

Class A £435,850,000<br />

Class X £50,000<br />

Class B £42,150,000<br />

Class C £42,000,000<br />

Class D £58,000,000<br />

Class E £60,000,000<br />

Class V £50,000<br />

The Notes within each class will rank pari passu and pro rata<br />

without any preference or priority among themselves. With respect<br />

to the Class X Notes, such ranking will relate only to payments of<br />

interest, and, with respect to the Class V Notes, such ranking will<br />

relate only to payments of Class V Amounts.<br />

The Notes (other than the Class X Notes (with respect to principal<br />

only) and the Class V Notes) will all share the same security, but,<br />

in the event of the security being enforced, principal and interest<br />

due in respect of the Class A Notes will rank in priority to principal<br />

and interest due in respect of the Class B Notes. Principal and<br />

interest due in respect of the Class B Notes will rank in priority to<br />

principal and interest due in respect of the Class C Notes, principal<br />

and interest due in respect of the Class C Notes will rank in priority<br />

to principal and interest due in respect of the Class D Notes,<br />

principal and interest due in respect of the Class D Notes will rank<br />

in priority to principal and interest due in respect of the Class E<br />

Notes. Interest due in respect of the Class A Notes and the Class X<br />

Notes will rank pari passu and pro rata without any preference or<br />

priority among themselves. The Class X Noteholders will be paid<br />

principal when due from a separate account (the “Class X<br />

Account”), which provides additional security for only the Class X<br />

Notes and into which the Issuer will deposit £50,000 on the<br />

Closing Date. No other class of Notes will be entitled to payment<br />

from the £50,000 in the Class X Account and therefore, the Class X<br />

Notes do not rank against any other class of Notes with respect to<br />

any principal amounts distributable from the Collection Account.<br />

The Class V Noteholders will be paid principal and interest when<br />

due from a separate account (the “Class V Account”), which<br />

provides additional security for the Class V Notes and into which<br />

the Issuer will deposit £50,000 on the Closing Date. The Class V<br />

Notes, therefore, do not rank against any other class of Notes with<br />

respect to any principal or interest amounts distributable from the<br />

Collection Account.<br />

The Notes (other than the Class V Notes) of each class offered and<br />

sold in reliance on Rule 144A will initially be represented by one<br />

23


or more Rule 144A Global Notes in respect of each class, in each<br />

case in registered form. The Notes of each class offered and sold<br />

outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in reliance on<br />

Regulation S will initially be represented by one or more<br />

Regulation S Global Notes in respect of such class, in each case in<br />

registered form. The Rule 144A Global Notes and Regulation S<br />

Global Notes will be registered in the name of the Common<br />

Depository (or its nominee) for the account of Euroclear and<br />

Clearstream, Luxembourg. Beneficial ownership interests in the<br />

Notes will be shown on, and transfers thereof will be effected only<br />

through, records maintained in book-entry form by Euroclear or<br />

Clearstream, Luxembourg, and their respective participants. See<br />

“Description of the Notes”.<br />

Definitive Notes will be issued only in certain limited<br />

circumstances. See “Terms and Conditions of the Notes—<br />

Condition 2 (Definitive Notes)” and “Description of the Notes”.<br />

The holders of the Class X Notes (the “Class X Noteholders”) and<br />

the holders of the Class V Notes (the “Class V Noteholders”) have<br />

no power to pass Extraordinary Resolutions and are not counted in<br />

determining any quorum or majority for the purposes of holding<br />

any meeting or passing any resolutions. See “Terms and<br />

Conditions of the Notes—Condition 3(a)(iv) (Status and<br />

Relationship Among the Notes)” and “—Condition 12(a) (Meetings<br />

of Noteholders, Modification and Waiver and Substitution)”.<br />

The Notes and interest thereon will not be obligations or<br />

responsibilities of any person other than the Issuer. In particular,<br />

the Notes will not be obligations or responsibilities of, or be<br />

guaranteed, by the Loan Seller, the Original Lender, the Loan<br />

Arranger or any associated body of any of the aforementioned, or<br />

of or by the Manager, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Cash<br />

Manager, the Note Trustee, the Corporate Services Provider, the<br />

Paying Agents, the Agent Bank, the Registrar, the Advance<br />

Provider, the Backup Advance Provider, the Swap Provider, the<br />

Operating Bank, or the shareholders of any of them or the<br />

shareholders of the Issuer, and none of such persons accepts any<br />

liability whatsoever in respect of any failure by the Issuer to make<br />

payment of any amount due on the Notes.<br />

Distributions on the Notes<br />

A. General................................................. On each Payment Date, as further described under “The Structure<br />

of the Accounts—The Issuer’s Accounts” herein, principal and<br />

interest collected with respect to the Libra Loan will be distributed<br />

as follows:<br />

Payment Order Class<br />

1 st A and X (1)<br />

2 nd B<br />

3 rd C<br />

4 th D<br />

5 th E<br />

(1) With respect to the Class X Notes, the priority above relates only to interest.<br />

Notwithstanding the above, the Class A Notes, Class B Notes,<br />

Class C Notes, Class D Notes and the Class E Notes will receive<br />

pro rata distributions of Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amounts,<br />

provided that a Sequential Prepayment Trigger has not occurred.<br />

24


Principal and interest on the Class V Notes are paid solely from<br />

amounts standing to the credit of the Class V Account and such<br />

amounts are not otherwise payable or available to the other classes<br />

of Notes. Principal amounts of the Class X Notes will be paid<br />

solely from amounts on deposit in the Class X Account and such<br />

amounts are not otherwise payable or available to the other classes<br />

of Notes.<br />

See “—Application of Payments by the Issuer—Priority of<br />

Payments” below.<br />

B. Interest ................................................. Each Note will bear interest on its Principal Amount Outstanding<br />

from, and including, the Closing Date. Interest will be payable in<br />

respect of the Notes in sterling quarterly in arrear on the 20 th<br />

calendar day of each January, April, July and October in each year<br />

or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business<br />

Day (each such day being, a “Payment Date”). The first Payment<br />

Date in respect of each class of Notes will be the Payment Date<br />

falling in July <strong>2007</strong>.<br />

Interest payments will be made subject to applicable withholding or<br />

deduction for or on account of tax (if any), without the Issuer being<br />

obliged to pay additional amounts in respect of any such<br />

withholding or deduction.<br />

The interest rate applicable to each class of Notes from time to time<br />

(each, a “Rate of Interest”) will be calculated in accordance with<br />

Condition 5 (Interest). See “Terms and Conditions of the Notes”.<br />

The Rate of Interest applicable to the Notes (other than the Class X<br />

Notes and the Class V Notes) will be a per annum rate equal to the<br />

sum of (A) LIBOR (as determined in accordance with Condition<br />

5(c) (Rate of Interest)) for three-month sterling deposits (or, in the<br />

case of the first Interest Accrual Period, will be determined by a<br />

linear interpolation of the rate for one-month and two-month<br />

sterling deposits), plus (B) the Relevant Margin.<br />

The “Relevant Margin” in respect of each class of Notes (other<br />

than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) will be:<br />

Class<br />

A<br />

B<br />

C<br />

D<br />

E<br />

Relevant Margin<br />

0.25 per cent. per annum<br />

0.35 per cent. per annum<br />

0.50 per cent. per annum<br />

0.60 per cent. per annum<br />

0.90 per cent. per annum<br />

The Rate of Interest applicable to the Class X Notes from time to<br />

time will be the Class X Interest Rate. The “Class X Interest<br />

Rate” for any Payment Date is a per annum rate expressed as a<br />

percentage calculated as follows: (a) the product of: (i) the<br />

outstanding principal balance of the Libra Loan as at the beginning<br />

of the related Interest Accrual Period expiring immediately before<br />

such Payment Date and (ii) the Class X Net Weighted Average<br />

Strip Rate, divided by (b) the Principal Amount Outstanding on the<br />

Class X Notes immediately before such Payment Date.<br />

The “Class X Net Weighted Average Strip Rate” with respect to<br />

any Payment Date will be a per annum rate equal to the excess, if<br />

any, of (x) the Net Mortgage Rate for the related Interest Accrual<br />

Period over (y) the weighted average of the Rates of Interest of the<br />

Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes)<br />

(weighted on the basis of the respective Principal Amount<br />

25


Outstanding of such Classes immediately prior to such Payment<br />

Date).<br />

The “Net Mortgage Rate” for the Libra Loan, with respect to any<br />

Payment Date, is equal to (a) the related per annum interest rate<br />

due on the Libra Loan less (b) the Administrative Cost Rate.<br />

The “Administrative Cost Rate” is equal to a variable per annum<br />

rate, which, as at any Payment Date, is the amount (expressed as a<br />

percentage) equal to the product of (a) the fraction obtained by<br />

dividing: (i) the Administrative Cost Factor by (ii) the actual<br />

number of days in the relevant Interest Accrual Period for such<br />

Payment Date and (b) 365. The Administrative Cost Rate<br />

represents as at any date of calculation, the per annum rate at which<br />

Periodic Expenses for any Interest Accrual Period accrue against<br />

the outstanding principal balance of the Libra Loan.<br />

“Periodic Expenses” means, with respect to any Payment Date, the<br />

ordinary, recurring fees and, in the case of the Issuer Margin, return<br />

(and not extraordinary, non-recurring fees, costs and expenses) that<br />

will be accrued and due on, or during the Interest Accrual Period<br />

relating to such Payment Date (including VAT thereon, if<br />

applicable), to the following persons (collectively, the “Periodic<br />

Fee Parties” and each, a “Periodic Fee Party”): (i) the Servicer<br />

(which fee is limited to the Servicing Fee and any expenses<br />

incurred by the Servicer or Special Servicer in connection with any<br />

review (annual or otherwise) procedure in respect of the Borrower<br />

or the Libra Loan pursuant to the Servicing Agreement); (ii) the<br />

Note Trustee; (iii) the Operating Bank; (iv) the Principal Paying<br />

Agent; (v) the Agent Bank; (vi) the <strong>Irish</strong> Paying Agent; (vii) the<br />

Common Depository; (viii) the Cash Manager; (ix) the Issuer (only<br />

in respect of an amount equal to €1,500 per annum (the “Issuer<br />

Margin”)); (x) the Corporate Services Provider and (to the extent<br />

not covered by the fees payable to the Corporate Services<br />

Provider), the Issuer’s directors, advisors and accountants; (xi) the<br />

Rating Agencies; (xii) any stock exchange where the Notes are<br />

listed; (xiii) the document custodian (if any); and (xiv) the<br />

Registrar.<br />

The “Administrative Cost Factor” is, as at any Payment Date,<br />

equal to the amount (expressed as a percentage) obtained by<br />

dividing: (i) the Administrative Fees for such Payment Date by (ii)<br />

the outstanding principal balance of the Libra Loan immediately<br />

after the respective second preceding Due Date for such Payment<br />

Date.<br />

The “Administrative Fees” for any Payment Date will be the sum<br />

of all Periodic Expenses (plus VAT, if applicable), incurred during<br />

the Collection Period immediately preceding such Payment Date.<br />

Periodic Expenses (excluding the Servicing Fee and any expenses<br />

incurred by the Servicer or Special Servicer in connection with any<br />

review (annual or otherwise) procedure in respect of the Borrower<br />

or the Libra Loan pursuant to the Servicing Agreement) plus VAT,<br />

if applicable are scheduled to be, on an annual basis, an amount<br />

equal to approximately £117,000; however, if any current service<br />

provider is replaced by a successor service provider and such<br />

successor’s fees are in excess of the prior service provider’s fees,<br />

the Periodic Expenses will be increased to reflect such change.<br />

The Rate of Interest applicable to the Class V Notes from time to<br />

time will be the Class V Interest Rate, which will be a rate of<br />

26


interest determined by reference to the Class V Amounts in the<br />

Class V Account. See “Terms and Conditions of the Notes—<br />

Condition 5(c) (Rate of Interest)”.<br />

Whenever it is necessary to compute an amount of interest in<br />

respect of any of the Notes for any period, such interest will be<br />

calculated on the basis of actual days elapsed and a 365-day year.<br />

The holders of the Class A Notes (the “Class A Noteholders”) and<br />

the Class X Notes will only receive interest payments after<br />

payment by the Issuer of certain costs and expenses (see “The<br />

Structure of the Accounts—The Issuer’s Accounts—Priority of<br />

Payments”). The Issuer’s obligations to pay interest on the Class B<br />

Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes and the Class E Notes<br />

will be subordinated to all interest payments on the Class A Notes<br />

and the Class X Notes (including accrued and deferred interest),<br />

and its obligations to pay interest on the Class B Notes, the Class C<br />

Notes, the Class D Notes and the Class E Notes will, in each case,<br />

also be subordinated to the Issuer’s obligation to pay interest on<br />

any and all senior-ranking classes of Notes then outstanding in the<br />

same manner.<br />

Failure by the Issuer to pay interest on the Class A Notes (or the<br />

most senior class of Notes which is still outstanding (other than the<br />

Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) where one or more classes of<br />

Notes has been redeemed in full) when due and payable will result<br />

in a Note Event of Default, which may result in the Note Trustee<br />

enforcing the Issuer Security pursuant to the Note Trust Deed.<br />

Failure by the Issuer to pay interest on the Class X Notes or the<br />

Class V Notes will not result in a Note Event of Default or an<br />

enforcement of the Issuer Security.<br />

To the extent that funds available to the Issuer on any Payment<br />

Date, after paying any interest then accrued due and payable on the<br />

most senior class of Notes then outstanding (other than the Class V<br />

Notes), are insufficient to pay in full interest otherwise due on any<br />

one or more classes of more junior-ranking Notes (other than the<br />

Class V Notes) then outstanding, the shortfall in the interest<br />

amount then due will not be paid on such Payment Date, but will<br />

only be paid, in accordance with the order of seniority of the<br />

affected classes of Notes, on one or more subsequent Payment<br />

Dates, if and when permitted by subsequent cash flows which are<br />

available after the Issuer’s higher priority liabilities have been<br />

discharged.<br />

C. Principal Final Redemption ................. Unless previously redeemed, the Notes are scheduled to be<br />

redeemed at their Principal Amount Outstanding together with<br />

accrued interest on the Assumed Final Payment Date, provided that<br />

in any event, the maturity date of Notes may not be later than the<br />

Payment Date falling in January 2017 (the “Maturity Date”). See<br />

“Certain Characteristics of the Libra Loan and Properties” below.<br />

The “Assumed Final Payment Date” for each Note is set forth<br />

under “Executive Summary” above.<br />

D. Principal Amount Outstanding ............ The “Principal Amount Outstanding” of any class of Notes on<br />

any date shall be (a) the initial principal amount thereof on the<br />

Closing Date less (b) the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of all<br />

repayments and prepayments of principal in respect of that class of<br />

Note since the Closing Date and prior to such date and (ii) the<br />

aggregate amount of all NAI Amounts allocated to such class of<br />

Notes since the Closing Date and before such date of calculation.<br />

27


“NAI Amounts” means on any Payment Date, in relation to the<br />

Notes of a particular class, a pro rata share of the aggregate<br />

amount of NAI required to be applied to such class of Notes on<br />

such Payment Date calculated in accordance with Condition 6(e)<br />

(Principal Amount Outstanding and Note Factor). As set out in<br />

Condition 6(e) (Principal Amount Outstanding and Note Factor),<br />

NAI Amounts will be allocated to each class of Notes (other than<br />

the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) in reverse sequential<br />

order, beginning with the most subordinate class of Notes that then<br />

has any Principal Amount Outstanding.<br />

“NAI” means with respect to any Determination Date, the amount<br />

by which (x) the aggregate amount of principal of the Libra Loan<br />

outstanding as determined by the Servicer after taking into account<br />

all principal received on or before such Determination Date will be<br />

less than (y) the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Notes on the related Payment Date (after application of any<br />

Sequential Principal Distribution Amount and Pro Rata Principal<br />

Prepayment Amount, if any, to be distributed on the Notes on such<br />

Payment Date).<br />

NAI will represent, among other things, the amount of losses<br />

realised on the Libra Loan upon a Final Recovery Determination.<br />

E. Mandatory Redemption in Part ............ Unless a Note Enforcement Notice has been served, the Notes of<br />

any Class (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes)<br />

will be subject to mandatory redemption in part on each Payment<br />

Date to the extent that any Sequential Principal Distribution<br />

Amounts or Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amounts for the related<br />

Collection Period are allocable to the Notes after the payment of all<br />

amounts payable by the Issuer in priority to payments of principal<br />

and interest on the respective Notes including any amounts then<br />

due under the Loan Sale Agreement. See further “Terms and<br />

Conditions of the Notes—Condition 6(b) (Mandatory Redemption<br />

from Principal Distribution Amounts, Sequential Principal<br />

Distribution Amounts and Pro Rata Principal Prepayment<br />

Amounts)” below.<br />

With respect to Sequential Principal Distribution Amounts, the<br />

Issuer will apply such funds in redeeming the Notes of the most<br />

senior class then outstanding (other than the Class X Notes and the<br />

Class V Notes) and, to the extent that the same are redeemed in<br />

full, the next most senior class then outstanding (other than the<br />

Class X Notes and the Class V Notes). With respect to Pro Rata<br />

Principal Prepayment Amounts, the Issuer will apply such funds in<br />

redeeming the Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V<br />

Notes) in the manner described below under “—Application of<br />

Payments by the Issuer—Payments on Notes from Collection<br />

Account—General”.<br />

The Class X Notes will be subject to mandatory redemption in part<br />

from amounts standing to the credit of the Class X Account on the<br />

first Payment Date in the amount of £45,000 per Note, in<br />

accordance with Condition 6(h) (Mandatory Redemption in Part of<br />

the Class X Notes and Class V Notes). The Class X Notes will not<br />

otherwise be subject to redemption prior to their maturity,<br />

mandatory redemption or the enforcement in full of the Notes,<br />

unless (a) the principal balance of the Libra Loan has been reduced<br />

to zero or (b) after payment in full of the Class A Notes, Class B<br />

Notes, Class C Notes, Class D Notes and Class E Notes.<br />

28


The Class V Notes will be subject to mandatory redemption in part<br />

from amounts standing to the credit of the Class V Account on the<br />

first Payment Date in the amount of £45,000 per Note, in<br />

accordance with Condition 6(h) (Mandatory Redemption in Part of<br />

the Class X Notes and Class V Notes). The Class V Notes will<br />

otherwise not be subject to redemption prior to the payment in full<br />

of the Class A Notes, Class B Notes, Class C Notes, Class D Notes<br />

and Class E Notes.<br />

F. Redemption in Full............................... The Notes will be subject to redemption in full, but not in part, by<br />

the Issuer at their Principal Amount Outstanding at the direction of,<br />

inter alios, 66⅔ per cent. of the Controlling Class if, as a result of a<br />

change in tax law from that in effect on the Closing Date, the Issuer<br />

will be obliged to make any withholding or deduction from<br />

payments in respect of the Notes. See further “Terms and<br />

Conditions of the Notes—Condition 6(c) (Mandatory Redemption<br />

for Tax Reasons)” below.<br />

The Notes will also be subject to redemption in full, but not in part,<br />

at their then Principal Amount Outstanding if the Servicer or the<br />

Special Servicer exercises its call option, upon the outstanding<br />

principal balance of the Libra Loan being less than 10 per cent. of<br />

the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Libra Loan at the<br />

Closing Date.<br />

In any case the Issuer, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as<br />

applicable, must certify to the Note Trustee that it will have<br />

sufficient funds available to it on the relevant Payment Date to<br />

discharge all of the Issuer’s liabilities in respect of the Notes and<br />

any amounts required under the Deed of Charge and Assignment to<br />

be paid in priority to, or pari passu with, the Notes on such<br />

Payment Date, all in accordance with “Terms and Conditions of the<br />

Notes—Conditions 6(c) (Mandatory Redemption for Tax<br />

Reasons)”, “—6(d) (Mandatory Redemption Upon Exercise of Call<br />

Option)” and “—6(e) (Principal Amount Outstanding and Note<br />

Factor)” below.<br />

Subordination ............................................ Other than with respect to any Pro Rata Principal Prepayment<br />

Amounts and subject to certain conditions:<br />

(a) while any Class A Notes are outstanding, the holders of the<br />

Class B Notes (the “Class B Noteholders”), the holders of the<br />

Class C Notes (the “Class C Noteholders”), the holders of the<br />

Class D Notes (the “Class D Noteholders”) and the holders of<br />

the Class E Notes (the “Class E Noteholders”) will not be<br />

entitled to any repayment of principal in respect of the Class B<br />

Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes and the Class E<br />

Notes, respectively;<br />

(b) while any Class B Notes are outstanding, the Class C<br />

Noteholders, the Class D Noteholders and the Class E<br />

Noteholders will not be entitled to any repayment of principal<br />

in respect of the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes and the<br />

Class E Notes, respectively;<br />

(c) while any Class C Notes are outstanding, the Class D<br />

Noteholders and the Class E Noteholders will not be entitled to<br />

any repayment of principal in respect of the Class D Notes and<br />

the Class E Notes, respectively; and<br />

29


(d) while any Class D Notes are outstanding, the Class E<br />

Noteholders will not be entitled to any repayment of principal<br />

in respect of the Class E Notes.<br />

Principal of the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes is paid solely<br />

from amounts standing to the credit of the Class X Account and the<br />

Class V Account, respectively, and therefore does not rank against<br />

any other class of Notes with respect to any amount distributable<br />

from the Collection Account to such class.<br />

Ratings....................................................... The Notes (other than the Class V Notes) are, upon issue, expected<br />

to be rated by the Rating Agencies as follows:<br />

Class<br />

A<br />

X<br />

B<br />

C<br />

D<br />

E<br />

Expected Rating<br />

S&P/Moody’s/Fitch<br />

AAA/Aaa/-<br />

AAA/-/-<br />

AAA/-/AA<br />

AA+/-/A<br />

AA/-/A<br />

A/-/BBB<br />

The Class V Notes will not be rated. A security rating is not a<br />

recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject<br />

to revision, suspension or withdrawal at any time by the assigning<br />

rating agency.<br />

The ratings of the Notes are dependent upon, among other things,<br />

the short term unsecured, unsubordinated and unguaranteed debt<br />

ratings of the Backup Advance Provider. If such ratings fall below<br />

the short-term, unsecured, unguaranteed and unsubordinated debt<br />

ratings of “A-1+” by S&P , “P-1” by Moody’s and “F1” by Fitch<br />

(in each case, to the extent that such Rating Agency is at the time<br />

of determination engaged by the Issuer to provide credit ratings for<br />

the Notes of any class) and long-term, unsecured, unguaranteed and<br />

unsubordinated debt ratings of at least “A1” by Moody’s (to the<br />

extent that Moody’s is at the time of determination engaged by the<br />

Issuer to provide credit ratings for the Notes of any class) (the<br />

“Backup Advance Provider Required Ratings”), the Backup<br />

Advance Provider must be replaced by a Backup Advance Provider<br />

that satisfies the Backup Advance Provider Required Ratings<br />

within 30 days of the downgrade.<br />

Sales Restrictions....................................... The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the<br />

United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities<br />

Act”), or the securities laws of any state of the United States and<br />

unless so registered may not be offered and sold in the United<br />

States or to, or for the benefit of U.S. persons (as defined in<br />

Regulation S under the Securities Act (a “U.S. Person”), except<br />

pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to,<br />

the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable<br />

state laws.<br />

The Notes are being offered and sold only to (a) “Qualified<br />

Institutional Buyers” (as defined in Rule 144A under the<br />

Securities Act) and (b) persons (other than U.S. persons) pursuant<br />

to Regulation S under the Securities Act. For a description of<br />

certain restrictions on resales or transfers see “Transfer<br />

Restrictions”.<br />

Listing........................................................ Application has been made to the Financial Regulator in Ireland, as<br />

competent authority under the Prospectus Directive, for the<br />

30


Prospectus to be approved. Application has been made to the <strong>Irish</strong><br />

<strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> for the Notes to be admitted to the Official List of<br />

the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> and to trading on its regulated market.<br />

There can be no assurance, however, that such admission will be<br />

granted.<br />

Settlement.................................................. Clearstream, Luxembourg and Euroclear.<br />

Governing Law.......................................... The Notes and the Note Trust Deed will be governed by English<br />

law.<br />

Application of Payments by the Issuer<br />

Source of Funds......................................... Payments of interest and principal on the Libra Loan and the Basis<br />

Swap Agreement and (if necessary and applicable) Advances<br />

received under the Servicing Agreement are the principal sources<br />

of funds from which the Issuer will make repayments of principal<br />

and payments of interest in respect of the Notes.<br />

Payments on Notes from<br />

Collection Account ................................ On each Payment Date, the Cash Manager will be required to make<br />

payments on the Notes (in the priority set forth under “—Priority of<br />

Payments”, below) to the extent of Available Funds.<br />

“Available Funds” means the aggregate amount available in the<br />

Collection Account attributable to the Collection Period related to<br />

the applicable Payment Date after: (i) the allocation of quarterly<br />

collections with respect to the Libra Loan and the Basis Swap<br />

Agreement to the Class V Account which comprises any interest<br />

earned on amounts deposited in the Collection Account, the Class<br />

X Account and the Class V Account or net income earned from<br />

Permitted Investments of such amounts during the Collection<br />

Period immediately preceding such Payment Date (in each case<br />

other than interest or net income earned in respect of prepayments<br />

or liquidation proceeds deposited into the Collection Account<br />

during such Collection Period); and (ii) the payment of expenses of<br />

the Issuer from amounts allocated to the Collection Account, in<br />

each case as described under “The Structure of the Accounts”.<br />

The “Principal Distribution Amount” for any Payment Date will<br />

be equal to the sum, without duplication, of the principal<br />

component of:<br />

(a) all payments and repayments (including any voluntary or<br />

mandatory principal prepayments) and amortisation due or<br />

deemed due in respect of the Libra Loan (including any<br />

payments in connection with the acceleration of the Libra<br />

Loan);<br />

(b) P&I Advances made by the Advance Provider or the Backup<br />

Advance Provider, as applicable, with respect to such Payment<br />

Date;<br />

(c) any payment made by the Loan Arranger to repurchase (or<br />

participate in) the Libra Loan pursuant to the Loan Sale<br />

Agreement; and<br />

(d) to the extent not included above, any full or partial recoveries<br />

in respect of principal, net insurance proceeds, compulsory<br />

purchase proceeds and net enforcement or liquidation proceeds<br />

received in respect of the Libra Loan (including the principal<br />

31


component of any payment received in connection with the<br />

sale of the Libra Loan pursuant to the Purchase Option or to a<br />

Subordinate Lender under the Subordinate Debt, if applicable,<br />

in each case as described under “Servicing—Enforcement of<br />

the Libra Loan” and “The Libra Loan and Properties—Senior<br />

Intercreditor Deed—Purchase Right of Subordinate Lenders”),<br />

in any case, attributable to the Collection Period related to such<br />

Payment Date; provided that after an enforcement of the security<br />

granted pursuant to the Deed of Charge and Assignment in<br />

accordance with its terms, all amounts remaining as Available<br />

Funds in the Collection Account will be considered Principal<br />

Distribution Amounts.<br />

The “Principal Prepayment Amount” for any Payment Date will<br />

be equal to the sum of: (without duplication) any voluntary or<br />

mandatory principal prepayments (including any premium received<br />

in connection with any property release) or Balloon Payment but<br />

excluding, in each case, amortisation actually received under the<br />

Libra Loan during the Collection Period related to such Payment<br />

Date.<br />

The “Principal Amortisation Amount” for any Payment Date will<br />

be equal to the Principal Distribution Amount for such Payment<br />

Date less the Principal Prepayment Amount for such Payment<br />

Date.<br />

The “Sequential Principal Distribution Amount” for any<br />

Payment Date will be equal to the excess of the Principal<br />

Distribution Amount received for the Libra Loan for such Payment<br />

Date over the Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amount for such<br />

Payment Date.<br />

The “Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amount” and the “Pre-<br />

Trigger Sequential Principal Prepayment Amount” for any<br />

Payment Date will be equal to the lesser of:<br />

(a) 50 per cent. of the Principal Prepayment Amount for such<br />

Payment Date; or<br />

(b) 50 per cent. of an amount that, if applied against the aggregate<br />

Principal Amount Outstanding of the Notes (other than the<br />

Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) as at such Payment Date<br />

would, after application of any Principal Amortisation Amount<br />

on such Payment Date, reduce such Principal Amount<br />

Outstanding to 50 per cent. of the Principal Amount<br />

Outstanding of the Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the<br />

Class V Notes) as at the Closing Date.<br />

Notwithstanding the foregoing if a Sequential Prepayment Trigger<br />

exists on the Determination Date immediately preceding such<br />

Payment Date, the Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amount and the<br />

Pre-Trigger Sequential Principal Prepayment Amount for such<br />

Payment Date will be zero.<br />

“Sequential Prepayment Trigger” means, on any Determination<br />

Date, the existence of any of the following:<br />

(a) a Material Loan Event of Default under the Credit Agreement<br />

relating to the Libra Loan; or<br />

32


(b) NAI Amounts have been allocated to any class of Notes since<br />

the Closing Date due to realised losses on the Libra Loan, or<br />

there has been a failure to pay interest when due on any Note;<br />

or<br />

(c) the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the Notes<br />

(other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) is less<br />

than or equal to 50 per cent. of the aggregate Principal Amount<br />

Outstanding of the Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the<br />

Class V Notes) as at the Closing Date; or<br />

(d) a Note Event of Default has been declared and is outstanding.<br />

“Material Loan Event of Default” means any Loan Event of<br />

Default deemed by the Servicer or, with respect to a Specially<br />

Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer to be material on the basis of<br />

the Credit Agreement, which Loan Events of Default shall include,<br />

but not be limited to, any monetary event of default, insolvency (of<br />

a member of the Borrower Group or of the Principal Tenant),<br />

cross-default with other indebtedness, or certain breaches of<br />

representation. Upon the occurrence of a Material Loan Event of<br />

Default, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, will be<br />

required to promptly notify the Cash Manager.<br />

A. Priority of Payments ............................ On each Payment Date, including post-enforcement (except as<br />

otherwise provided below), payments from Available Funds in the<br />

Collection Account (excluding any Pro Rata Principal Prepayment<br />

Amount which shall be distributed as described under “—<br />

Distribution of the Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amount”<br />

below), will be made by the Cash Manager in the following order<br />

of priority after payment of Revenue Priority Amounts and<br />

Expenses Priority Amounts (in each case only if and to the extent<br />

that payments or provisions of higher priority have been made in<br />

full) (the “Sequential Priority of Payments”):<br />

(i) first, to pay, pro rata, all interest due or overdue and<br />

payable on the Class A Notes and the Class X Notes<br />

together with any interest thereon, in accordance with the<br />

provisions of the Terms and Conditions of the Notes (the<br />

“Conditions”) and the Note Trust Deed;<br />

(ii) second, to pay all principal due and payable on the Class<br />

(iii) third, to pay that portion of the Class A Notes that<br />

represents any NAI Amounts previously allocated to such<br />

class;<br />

(iv) fourth, to pay the Forward Swap Subordinated Amounts to<br />

Note Trust Deed;<br />

(vi) sixth, to pay all principal due and payable on the Class B<br />

Notes in an amount up to the lesser of: (a) their Principal<br />

33


Amount Outstanding; and (b) the Sequential Principal<br />

Distribution Amount, less the portion of the Sequential<br />

Principal Distribution Amount distributed pursuant to all<br />

prior clauses, in accordance with the provisions of the<br />

Conditions and the Note Trust Deed;<br />

(vii) seventh, to pay that portion of the Class B Notes that<br />

represents any NAI Amounts previously allocated to such<br />

accordance with the provisions of the Conditions and the<br />

Note Trust Deed;<br />

(ix) ninth, to pay all principal due and payable on the Class C<br />

Notes in an amount up to the lesser of: (a) their Principal<br />

Amount Outstanding; and (b) the Sequential Principal<br />

Distribution Amount, less the portion of the Sequential<br />

Principal Distribution Amount distributed pursuant to all<br />

prior clauses, in accordance with the provisions of the<br />

Conditions and the Note Trust Deed;<br />

(x) tenth, to pay that portion of the Class C Notes that<br />

represents any NAI Amounts previously allocated to such<br />

Principal Distribution Amount, less the portion of the<br />

Sequential Principal Distribution Amount distributed<br />

pursuant to all prior clauses, in accordance with the<br />

provisions of the Conditions and the Note Trust Deed;<br />

(xiii) thirteenth, to pay that portion of the Class D Notes that<br />

represents any NAI Amounts previously allocated to such<br />

class;<br />

(xiv) fourteenth, to pay all interest due or overdue and payable<br />

on the Class E Notes together with any interest thereon, in<br />

accordance with the provisions of the Conditions and the<br />

pursuant to all prior clauses, in accordance with the<br />

provisions of the Conditions and the Note Trust Deed;<br />

(xvi) sixteenth, to pay that portion of the Class E Notes that<br />

represents any NAI Amounts previously allocated to such<br />

class;<br />

34


(xvii) seventeenth, to pay to the Advance Provider or, as the case<br />

may be, the Backup Advance Provider, any Subordinated<br />

Advance Amounts with respect to the Libra Loan; and<br />

(xviii) eighteenth, to pay any surplus to the Issuer and, if the<br />

directors of the Issuer so resolve, and the Issuer may<br />

lawfully do so, to pay dividends to shareholders in the<br />

Issuer.<br />

“Forward Swap Subordinated Amounts” means any termination<br />

amount due to the Swap Provider under the Swap Agreement to the<br />

extent relating to the Forward Swap.<br />

On any Payment Date, including post-enforcement, on which<br />

principal amounts are due and payable on the Class X Notes or the<br />

Class V Notes, the Cash Manager will instruct the Operating Bank<br />

to pay such amounts from the Class X Account and the Class V<br />

Account, respectively, in accordance with the Conditions, the Note<br />

Trust Deed and the Cash Management Agreement. On any<br />

Payment Date, including post-enforcement, on which interest is<br />

due and payable on the Class V Notes, such interest will be paid<br />

from the Class V Account in accordance with the Conditions, the<br />

Note Trust Deed and the Cash Management Agreement.<br />

To the extent that Available Funds on any Payment Date, after<br />

paying any interest then due and payable on the most senior class<br />

of Notes then outstanding (other than the Class V Notes), are<br />

insufficient to pay in full interest due on any outstanding class or<br />

classes of more junior-ranking Notes (other than the Class V<br />

Notes), the shortfall in the interest amount then due and payable<br />

will be paid, in accordance with the Sequential Priority of<br />

Payments, on one or more subsequent Payment Dates if Available<br />

Funds on such Payment Date or Payment Dates are sufficient to<br />

pay such amounts.<br />

B. Distribution of the Pro Rata<br />

Principal Prepayment Amount ............... On each Payment Date prior to a Sequential Prepayment Trigger in<br />

respect of which the Principal Prepayment Amount is greater than<br />

zero, the Cash Manager will allocate and distribute the Pro Rata<br />

Principal Prepayment Amount from Available Funds in the<br />

Collection Account pro rata to each class of Notes then<br />

outstanding (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes)<br />

based upon the respective Principal Amount Outstanding of each<br />

such class of Notes and the aggregate Principal Amount<br />

Outstanding of the Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the<br />

Class V Notes) on such Payment Date, in each case after taking<br />

into account application of (i) the Principal Amortisation Amount<br />

and (ii) the Pre-Trigger Sequential Principal Prepayment Amount<br />

for such Payment Date in accordance with the Sequential Priority<br />

of Payments.<br />

C. Expenses ............................................... Expenses with respect to the Libra Loan and the Notes are required<br />

to be calculated and paid by the Cash Manager prior to any<br />

distribution to the Noteholders in the manner and priority set forth<br />

under “The Structure of the Accounts—The Issuer’s Accounts”<br />

below.<br />

Security for the Notes................................ The obligations of the Issuer to Secured Parties will be secured,<br />

inter alia, by and pursuant to a deed of charge and assignment (the<br />

“Deed of Charge and Assignment”) governed by English law or,<br />

35


to the extent applicable, Scots law, Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law or Jersey<br />

law, which will be entered into on the Closing Date.<br />

The Issuer will grant, among other things, the following security<br />

under the Deed of Charge and Assignment (the “Issuer Security”)<br />

to the Note Trustee for itself and the other Secured Parties:<br />

(a) an assignment by way of first-ranking security of the Issuer’s<br />

rights under the Libra Loan (subject to the Subordinated<br />

Lenders’ rights therein) and the Loan Documents and an<br />

assignment by way of first-ranking security of the Issuer’s<br />

rights under certain agreements entered into in connection with<br />

the transactions described in this Offering Circular;<br />

(b) an assignment by way of first-ranking security of the Issuer’s<br />

beneficial interest in the Related Security;<br />

(c) a first-ranking charge over the Issuer’s interests in the Issuer<br />

Accounts (other than the Class X Account and the Class V<br />

Account) and certain other accounts of the Issuer, and in the<br />

funds from time to time standing to the credit of such accounts<br />

(other than Class V Amounts) and in the debts represented<br />

thereby;<br />

(d) a first-ranking charge in and to such Permitted Investments<br />

made by or on behalf of the Issuer using monies standing to<br />

the credit of the Issuer Accounts (other than the Class X<br />

Account or the Class V Account) and all monies, income and<br />

proceeds payable thereunder or accrued thereon (other than to<br />

the extent such amounts represent Class V Amounts) and the<br />

benefit of all covenants relating thereto and all rights and<br />

remedies for enforcing the same; and<br />

(e) a first-ranking floating charge governed by English law over<br />

the whole of the undertaking and assets of the Issuer (other<br />

than any such undertakings and assets as are situated in<br />

Jersey), present and future (other than such assets that are<br />

subject to the assignments by way of security and the fixed<br />

charges set out in paragraphs (a) to (d) above and the<br />

paragraph below, but extending over all of the undertaking and<br />

assets of the Issuer situated in Scotland or otherwise governed<br />

by Scots law or situated in Northern Ireland or otherwise<br />

governed by Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law, respectively).<br />

The Class X Notes and the Class V Notes will be additionally and<br />

respectively secured by way of a first-ranking charge over amounts<br />

standing to the credit of the Class X Account and the Class V<br />

Account and any Permitted Investments made using such amounts,<br />

respectively (except that interest accrued on such amounts and net<br />

income in respect of such Permitted Investments will secure only<br />

the Class V Notes) and, as regards the Class V Notes only, Class V<br />

Amounts standing to the credit of any Issuer Account, as described<br />

under “The Structure of the Accounts—The Issuer’s Accounts—The<br />

Class X Account”, and “—the Class V Account”. Such security will<br />

be granted to the Note Trustee in favour of itself and the Class X<br />

Noteholders and Class V Noteholders under the Deed of Charge<br />

and Assignment on the terms set forth in Condition 3(b) (Security<br />

and Priority of Payments).<br />

Legal Investment Considerations .............. The Notes will not constitute “mortgage related securities” for<br />

purposes of the Secondary Mortgage Market Enhancement Act of<br />

36


1984, as amended. If your investment activities are subject to legal<br />

investment laws and regulations, regulatory capital requirements,<br />

or review by regulatory authorities, then you may be subject to<br />

restrictions on investment in the Notes. You should consult your<br />

own legal advisors for assistance in determining the suitability of<br />

and consequences to you of the purchase, ownership and sale of the<br />

Notes.<br />

37


RISK FACTORS<br />

Prospective investors in the Notes should consider, among other things, the following factors in<br />

connection with the purchase of the Notes. The following summary of certain issues is not intended to be<br />

exhaustive. Prospective investors in the Notes should also read the detailed information set out elsewhere<br />

in this document.<br />

Loan Related Risks<br />

Commercial Mortgage Lending Generally: The Libra Loan is secured by, inter alia, mortgages or, in the<br />

case of Scottish properties, standard securities (each, a “Mortgage”) over: (a) the freeholds and overriding<br />

leases of 285 healthcare properties, which represent 96.5 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan<br />

Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount; (b) the long leaseholds of<br />

seven healthcare properties, which represent 2.6 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal<br />

Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount; (c) the part freehold and part<br />

leasehold of two healthcare properties, which represent 0.9 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan<br />

Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount; and (d) the freeholds of<br />

three staff accommodation properties, which represent less than 1.0 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised<br />

Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount (collectively, the<br />

“Properties”). In addition, the Libra Whole Loan is secured by: (a) charges over 241 overriding leases of<br />

which an Obligor is an overriding tenant; (b) charges over accounts into which rental income is paid with<br />

respect to the Properties; (c) a charge over the shares in all subsidiaries of each Obligor; (d) assignations of rents<br />

(under Scots law) or assignments of rental income (under English or Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law), as applicable; and (e) a<br />

floating charge over the assets and undertaking of each Obligor. Commercial mortgage lending is generally<br />

viewed as exposing a lender to a greater risk of loss than residential mortgage lending since the repayment of<br />

loans secured by income-producing properties is typically dependent upon the successful operation of the<br />

related property. If the cash flow from the property is reduced (for example, if leases are not obtained or<br />

renewed or if tenants default in their obligations under the leases), a borrower’s ability to repay a loan may be<br />

impaired.<br />

The volatility of property values and net operating income depends upon a number of factors, including (a)<br />

the volatility of property and property-related revenue and (b) the relevant property’s “operating leverage”,<br />

which generally refers to (i) the percentage of total property operating expenses in relation to property revenue,<br />

(ii) the breakdown of property operating expenses between those that are fixed and those that vary with revenue<br />

and (iii) the level of capital expenditures required to maintain the property and retain or replace tenants. Even<br />

when the current net operating income is sufficient to cover debt service, there can be no assurance that this will<br />

continue to be the case in the future.<br />

The net operating income and value of the Properties may be adversely affected by a number of factors,<br />

including, but not limited to, national, regional and local economic conditions (which may be adversely affected<br />

by government healthcare and/or geriatric care policies and other factors); local property market conditions<br />

(such as an oversupply of space, including market demand); convenience, condition, services and attractiveness<br />

of the Properties; the proximity and availability of competing alternatives to the Properties; the willingness and<br />

ability of the owners of the Properties to provide capable management and adequate maintenance; demographic<br />

factors; retroactive changes to building or similar regulations; and increases in operating expenses (such as<br />

staffing and energy costs). In addition, other factors may adversely affect the Properties’ value without<br />

affecting their current net operating income, including: changes in governmental regulations; monetary and<br />

fiscal policy and planning or tax laws; potential environmental legislation or liabilities or other legal liabilities;<br />

the availability of refinancing; and changes in interest rate or yield levels.<br />

The age, construction quality and design of a particular property may affect its occupancy level as well as<br />

the fees that may be charged for individual property use over time. The effects of poor construction quality will<br />

increase over time in the form of increased maintenance and capital improvements needed to maintain the<br />

property and to attract residents. Even good construction will deteriorate over time if the property managers<br />

and/or tenants do not schedule and perform adequate maintenance in a timely fashion. If, during the term of the<br />

Libra Whole Loan competing properties of a similar type are built in the areas where the Properties are located<br />

or similar properties in the vicinity of the Properties are substantially updated and refurbished, the value and net<br />

operating income of the Properties could be reduced.<br />

38


The terms of the leases might affect the realisable value of the Properties on enforcement. The Libra Loan<br />

contains restrictions on the Property Owners’ ability to grant or surrender leases without the Security Agent’s<br />

consent.<br />

Additionally, some of the Properties may not readily be convertible to alternative uses if such Properties<br />

were to become unprofitable due to competition, age of the improvements, decreased demand, regulatory<br />

changes or other factors. The conversion of commercial properties to alternate uses generally requires<br />

substantial capital expenditures. In addition, in connection with obtaining the necessary planning consents for<br />

such alternative uses, additional environmental surveys may be required. If any such environmental survey<br />

indicates that there are environmental issues with respect to such property, whether because of the conversion in<br />

usage or otherwise, it is possible that the Borrower will be required to remedy such environmental issues.<br />

A decline in the healthcare market (or an increase in competition), in the financial condition of one or more<br />

tenants or operators which provide healthcare services or a general decline in the local, regional or national<br />

economy will tend to have a more immediate effect on the net operating income of properties with short-term<br />

revenue sources and may lead to higher rates of delinquency or defaults.<br />

Any one or more of the above described factors could have an adverse effect on the income derived from,<br />

or able to be generated by, a particular Property, which could in turn cause the Borrower to default on the Libra<br />

Whole Loan or may impact on the Borrower’s ability to refinance the Libra Whole Loan or sell the Properties to<br />

repay the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

Risks Relating to Healthcare Properties: The Libra Whole Loan is secured by, among other things,<br />

residential care home, nursing home and specialist care home healthcare properties. Investors should note in<br />

particular the following issues:<br />

Public Sector Funding: A significant source of the Borrower’s income is or may be derived from publiclyfunded<br />

sources, principally local authorities or The National Health Service. Local authorities have cash-limited<br />

budgets and this affects the scope of care services funded by them. The level of resources that each relevant<br />

government makes available to local authorities to fund community care, therefore, is of crucial importance.<br />

A significant percentage of independent sector care home residents have their fees paid by local authorities.<br />

The remaining fees are invoiced monthly to residents and/or their families and/or estates. There can be no<br />

guarantee that the current ratio of state to private funding will be maintained or that average debtor levels will<br />

not increase. The future availability of public finance could be affected by political considerations.<br />

Downward pressure on fee income in respect of residential care or nursing homes could adversely affect the<br />

ability of the Borrower to make payments in respect of the Libra Whole Loan. This, in turn, would adversely<br />

affect the ability of the Issuer to make payments in respect of the Notes.<br />

Regulatory Issues: The tenants occupying the Properties and operating (directly, or through affiliates or<br />

subsidiaries) nursing and/or residential care homes (the “Libra Tenants”) are regulated by the relevant<br />

regulatory authority in the relevant jurisdiction. Care homes (which provide, among other things, long-term,<br />

non-acute care for the elderly, or adults who suffer from a mental illness or addiction, or who have a learning<br />

disability and are unable to cope unsupported in the community) are regulated in England and Wales under the<br />

Care Standards Act 2000 (the “CSA”) by the Commission for Social Care Inspection (“CSCI”). The regulator<br />

in Wales is the Care Standards Inspectorate for Wales. All relevant facilities must be registered with CSCI. In<br />

March 2001, the National Minimum Care Standards for Care Homes (the “National Minimum Standards”)<br />

were published pursuant to the CSA, which regulate minimum physical standards such as room sizes. The<br />

equivalent regulations in Northern Ireland are the Health and Personal Social Services (Quality, Improvement<br />

and Regulation) (Northern Ireland) Order 2003 which set out analogous minimum care standards.<br />

CSCI inspectors are entitled to enter and inspect the Properties, and are required to do so at least twice a<br />

year, with one inspection being unannounced. Should inspections reveal failures to meet the applicable National<br />

Minimum Standards and regulations, it is possible, in the event of a very serious failure, that the registration of<br />

the relevant facility could be revoked (in which case it would cease to be able to be used as a hospital or care<br />

home) or, in less serious circumstances, be subject to conditions (which might restrict its business activities).<br />

There can be no assurance that each Property will, at all the relevant times, meet the requirements of the<br />

applicable National Minimum Standards and regulations and that internal controls will ensure that this is so.<br />

Failure to meet such standards may have an adverse effect on the particular Libra Tenant’s business and may, in<br />

39


turn, affect that tenant’s ability to pay rent to the relevant Property Owner, which may affect the Borrower’s<br />

ability to meet payments on the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

In addition, managers of registered hospitals and care homes are required to be personally registered. Each<br />

of the persons listed as a manager is a registered person. If any manager loses his or her registration, it would be<br />

necessary to replace him or her with a registered person in order to continue the operation of the relevant<br />

tenant’s business in respect of the relevant Property.<br />

In Scotland, the present legal framework for the regulation of care services was established under the<br />

Regulation of Care (Scotland) Act 2001 (the “RC(S)A”). Both care homes and independent hospitals are<br />

regulated and inspected by the Scottish Commission for the Regulation of Care (“SCRC”), established under<br />

the RC(S)A, with which all such facilities must be registered. The regulatory and inspection regime in Scotland<br />

is broadly parallel to the position in England and Wales as set out above, and the Scottish Executive has<br />

published a series of National Care Standards for various categories of care services setting out the standards<br />

that facilities registered under the RC(S)A must meet (the “National Care Standards”). The regulators in<br />

Northern Ireland are the Registration and Inspection Units. Northern Ireland has separate but equivalent<br />

legislation regulating the provision of care services, most notably the Registered Homes (Northern Ireland)<br />

Order 1992. As in Scotland, the Northern <strong>Irish</strong> regulatory regime is broadly parallel with the position in<br />

England and Wales under the CSA.<br />

No assurance can be given as to the impact of any possible changes in regulations which enforce the<br />

National Minimum Standards or (in Scotland) National Care Standards after the date of this Offering Circular.<br />

Possible changes in regulations enforcing the National Minimum Standards or National Care Standards could<br />

result in increased costs for the Libra Tenants. This, in turn, could adversely affect the ability of the Borrower<br />

to make payments in respect of the Libra Whole Loan and in turn, the Issuer to make payments in respect of the<br />

Notes.<br />

Nature of Healthcare Facilities: Pursuant to section 11 of the CSA any person who carries on or manages<br />

an establishment or agency within the meaning of the CSA is required to obtain a registration under the CSA.<br />

Section 12(3) of the CSA permits only individuals to apply for registration as a manager of an establishment or<br />

agency. Registration is thus granted under the CSA either to the particular operator of the facilities or to the<br />

manager of the facilities (in each case rather than in respect of the facilities themselves). The Servicer will not<br />

assess or monitor compliance by any Libra Tenant with the terms of any registration. As such, a receiver or<br />

administrator appointed in respect of a Libra Tenant (and acting as agent of that Libra Tenant) would be able to<br />

maintain the licence/approval granted to the operator during its period of occupancy. The particular individual<br />

in respect of which registration has been granted may or may not change.<br />

In Scotland, any person who seeks to carry on a “care service” as defined in the RC(S)A (including a care<br />

home) is required to obtain a registration with the SCRC. A provider must obtain a separate registration for<br />

each care service provided, and the registration application must identify the individual (who may be the<br />

provider) who is to act as manager of the service. As in England therefore, registration is granted to the<br />

particular operator of the facilities rather than in respect of the facilities themselves. Similarly, in Northern<br />

Ireland, any person owning and or managing a residential care home must be registered with the relevant Health<br />

and Social Services Board in accordance with the Registered Homes (Northern Ireland) Order 1992 or the<br />

Health and Personal Social Services Act (Northern Ireland) 2001.<br />

While the insolvency of an operator is not grounds for the revocation of such licences and approvals per se,<br />

the relevant regulator can (but is not required to) revoke at any time a licence/approval granted by it if the<br />

regulator is not convinced about the continued ability of an operator to operate the relevant facilities. In theory,<br />

the regulator could seek to revoke the licence of an operator upon the insolvency of such operator. However, in<br />

practice, it is highly unlikely that the regulator would seek to close down a facility without first ensuring that the<br />

patients then resident in the facilities were adequately cared for.<br />

If a Property Owner (or following a Loan Event of Default, the Security Agent or any receiver appointed in<br />

respect of a Property) intends to relet any Property to an alternative tenant on the basis that the alternative tenant<br />

will continue to run the healthcare facilities provided at that Property, then the alternative tenant will need to<br />

hold the requisite registrations under the CSA or (in Scotland) the RC(S)A. Depending on the supply at that<br />

time of potential alternative tenants holding the requisite registrations, this may adversely affect the ability of a<br />

Property Owner to relet any Property or to relet any Property within a short period of time.<br />

Changes in Medical Practice: The method of treatment of patients changes from time to time as medical<br />

practice changes. Such changes may require the Libra Tenants to make changes currently not anticipated, which<br />

they may or may not be able to implement. Inability to remain current with medical practice may impact the<br />

Libra Tenants’ business and, in turn, the Borrower’s ability to meet obligations under the Libra Whole Loan,<br />

and further in turn, may affect the payments on the Notes.<br />

Staff: In common with all health providers, the Libra Tenants face challenges in recruiting and retaining<br />

qualified staff, particularly nurses. This is being countered to some extent by government initiatives to increase<br />

the number of nurses entering or re-entering the profession. However, there can be no assurance that with<br />

increased competition for suitably qualified staff, the Libra Tenants will succeed in recruiting and retaining<br />

staff. The healthcare sector in the United Kingdom currently reduces staffing costs to a certain extent by<br />

employing staff from outside the United Kingdom. However, there can be no assurance current government<br />

policies will not change, and that it will remain possible to make staffing cost savings by employing staff from<br />

outside the United Kingdom.<br />

Occupancy Levels: The supply of and demand for nursing and/or care home beds in the United Kingdom<br />

have both been reduced by, in the case of demand, the so-called ‘Word War I effect’ (a decline in birth rate<br />

during and after World War I resulting in a decrease in demand in the 1990s for care for the elderly) and, in the<br />

case of supply, the imposition of regulatory standards which have resulted in certain beds being closed for noncompliance<br />

with the National Minimum Standards or (in Scotland) National Care Standards. The United<br />

Kingdom Government Actuarial Department predicts an increase in the population over 85 years of age over the<br />

next 30 years. However, there can be no assurance that age-specific dependency rates will remain constant as<br />

life expectancy rises. Instead, as life expectancy rises, the number of years without dependency could rise by<br />

the same amount and therefore, the number of years with dependency would remain constant. Falling overall<br />

demand may be matched by withdrawal of capacity, thus resulting in sustained occupancy levels. However,<br />

there can be no assurance that current levels of occupancy will be sustained.<br />

<strong>Limited</strong> Payment History: The Libra Whole Loan was originated within approximately five months of the<br />

Closing Date. As such, the Libra Whole Loan does not have a long-standing payment history and there can be<br />

no assurance that required payments will be made or, if made, will be made on a timely basis or continue to be<br />

made.<br />

Recent Acquisition of the Properties: The Borrower acquired an indirect ownership in the Properties at<br />

various times prior to the origination of the Libra Whole Loan. Accordingly, the Borrower, its affiliates and its<br />

subsidiaries have limited experience in operating the Borrower Group and/or the Properties and, therefore, there<br />

is a risk that the net operating income and cash flow of the Properties may vary significantly from the<br />

operations, net operating income and cash flow generated by the Properties under prior ownership and/or<br />

management.<br />

Underwriting: The underwriting criteria and procedures of the Loan Arranger were applied when the Libra<br />

Whole Loan was originated. Accordingly, U/W Net Operating Income means cash flow based on rent rolls,<br />

and/or property operating statements provided by the Borrower and its Affiliates, as adjusted, based on a<br />

number of assumptions used by the Loan Arranger. No representation is made that any U/W Net Operating<br />

Income figures and the figures derived therefrom, such as U/W ICR and U/W DSCR, set forth in this Offering<br />

Circular as at the Cut-Off Date or any other date represent future net cash flows. Each investor should review<br />

these assumptions and make its own determination of the appropriate assumptions to be used in determining net<br />

operating income. In addition, U/W Net Operating Income reflects calculations and assumptions used by the<br />

Loan Arranger and should not be used as a substitute for, and may vary (perhaps substantially) from, cash flow<br />

as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as applied with respect to the<br />

Borrower (“GAAP”) as a measure of the results of a Property’s operation or as a substitute for cash flows from<br />

operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of liquidity. For example, the U/W<br />

DSCR and U/W ICR set forth in this Offering Circular for the Libra Loan and the Properties vary, and may vary<br />

substantially, from the debt service coverage ratios and the interest cover ratios for the Libra Whole Loan and<br />

the Properties as calculated pursuant to the definition of such ratios as set forth in the related Loan Documents.<br />

No representation is made as to the appropriateness or reasonableness of the assumptions used in<br />

determining U/W Net Operating Income.<br />

There can be no assurance that as a result of the underwriting procedures of the Loan Arranger the Libra<br />

Whole Loan may be more likely to default which in turn could result in losses for Noteholders.<br />

41


Sufficiency of Borrower’s Assets: Payments in respect of the Notes are dependent on, and limited to, the<br />

receipt of funds under the Libra Loan and, where necessary and applicable, Servicing Advances under the<br />

Servicing Agreement, amounts in the Cash Reserve Account, the Swap Agreement and the Basis Swap<br />

Agreement. In turn, recourse on the Libra Loan is limited to the members of the Borrower Group and/or their<br />

assets, which assets, in each case, are the Properties and other assets, security over which has been created to<br />

secure the Libra Whole Loan and whose business activities, in each case, are limited to owning, financing and<br />

otherwise dealing with such assets. Consequently, the ability of the Borrower to make payments on the Libra<br />

Loan prior to the maturity date (or extended maturity date) and, therefore, the ability of the Issuer to make<br />

payments on the Notes prior to the Maturity Date, is dependent primarily on the sufficiency of the net operating<br />

income of the Borrower Group, including the net operating income of the Properties. Upon default by the<br />

Borrower or on the maturity date of the Libra Whole Loan, payments on the Libra Loan would be dependent on<br />

the market value of the Properties and/or the Borrower’s ability to refinance the Properties.<br />

If, following the occurrence of an event of default under the Libra Whole Loan and following the exercise<br />

by the Special Servicer of all available remedies in respect of the Libra Whole Loan and any Related Security,<br />

the Issuer does not receive the full amount due from the Borrower, then Noteholders (or the holders of certain<br />

classes of Notes) may receive by way of principal repayment an amount less than the face value of their Notes<br />

and the Issuer may be unable to pay in full interest due on the Notes.<br />

Risks Relating to the Taxes Payable by the Obligors Under the Libra Loan: The members of the Borrower<br />

Group that own the Properties may have been structured in a manner to achieve maximum tax efficiency in the<br />

acquisition or ongoing ownership of the related Properties or property owning companies. Such structures will<br />

have been devised on the basis of current laws and regulations as well as decisions of tax authorities in the<br />

relevant jurisdictions as understood by the legal and/or accounting advisors of the members of the Borrower<br />

Group. Whilst the Loan Arranger is not aware of any inadequacies in such structural organisation of such<br />

acquisitions or ownership of the Properties, there can be no assurance that the underlying tax rulings or practice<br />

on which any such structure may rely will remain unchanged or that the relevant tax authorities will not disagree<br />

with such tax position, and that as a consequence the members of the Borrower Group may incur a tax liability<br />

in the future that may result in a reduction in amounts ultimately available by the Borrower to make payments<br />

under the Libra Loan.<br />

Refinancing Risk: The ability of the Note Trustee to make distributions to the Noteholders upon the<br />

maturity date (or upon the extended maturity date) of the Libra Whole Loan will depend significantly on the<br />

ability of the Borrower to refinance the Libra Whole Loan or the Shareholder to refinance the PIK Facility Loan<br />

or sell the Properties. The availability of credit for the Borrower to refinance the Libra Whole Loan or its ability<br />

to sell the relevant Properties at maturity (or at the extended maturity date) will be significantly dependent upon<br />

economic conditions then prevailing in the United Kingdom, being the market where the Properties are located,<br />

as well as the willingness and ability of lenders to make such loans. Such lenders typically include banks,<br />

insurance companies and finance companies. The availability of funds in the credit markets fluctuates and there<br />

can be no assurance that the availability of such funds will remain at or increase above, or will not contract<br />

below, current levels. In addition, the availability of assets similar to the Properties, and competition for<br />

available credit, may have a significant adverse effect on the ability of potential purchasers to obtain financing<br />

for the acquisition of the Properties.<br />

None of the Issuer, the Original Lender, the Loan Seller or the Loan Arranger is under any obligation to<br />

provide any such refinancing or new swap agreements and there can be no assurance that the Borrower would<br />

be able to refinance the Libra Whole Loan or sell any relevant Properties.<br />

Failure by the Borrower to refinance the Libra Whole Loan or to sell any Properties on or prior to the<br />

maturity date (or the extended maturity date) of the Libra Whole Loan may result in the Borrower defaulting on<br />

the Libra Whole Loan. In the event of such a default, the Noteholders, or the holders of certain classes of Notes,<br />

may receive by way of principal repayment an amount less than the face value of their Notes and the Issuer may<br />

be unable to pay, in full, interest due on the Notes.<br />

Risks Relating to Rent Accounts: The Borrower has undertaken that all Rental Income payable with respect<br />

to the Properties is paid into the Borrower Rent Collection Accounts, from which all net rental income shall be<br />

promptly paid by the Managing Agent into the Rent Account. The Borrower Rent Collection Accounts and the<br />

Rent Account are secured for the benefit of the Issuer and the other lenders of the Libra Whole Loan and (in the<br />

case only of the Rent Account) may be operated solely by the Security Agent. As a result, rents due on the<br />

Properties are paid into Borrower Rent Collection Accounts located in England and Jersey. The charges over<br />

the Borrower Rent Collection Accounts and the Rent Account, situated in England, are expressed to be English<br />

42


law fixed charges. The security over the Borrower Rent Collection Account held in Jersey are expressed to be<br />

an assignment of the account holder’s title to the account.<br />

With regard to payments of rent which are made into a Rent Account, following the Closing Date, there<br />

may be a risk of the Borrower, in breach of the Libra Whole Loan and any Related Security, charging or<br />

assigning the rents to a third party. Under English law, the right to receive rent payments passes to a mortgagee<br />

(including the Note Trustee) on enforcement of the mortgage without the need for any express assignment, and<br />

therefore the claim of the Security Agent or the Note Trustee under the Security Agreements would, as a matter<br />

of legal priority, defeat any claim by a subsequent chargee or assignee of the rent. There would, however, be no<br />

claim against a Libra Tenant who had previously responded to notice of the wrongful assignment by paying rent<br />

to a third party in ignorance of the Security Agreements. The position under Scots law is broadly analogous (i.e.<br />

the right to receive payment of rent is deemed to be assigned to the heritable creditor under a standard security<br />

upon enforcement).<br />

The purchase of the Libra Loan and of the beneficial interests in the Related Security has been structured in<br />

an attempt to address such risk to the rent payments by ensuring that payments of rent will continue to be made<br />

to a Rent Account.<br />

Special Purpose/Single Purpose Vehicle (“SPV”): SPV covenants are generally designed to limit the<br />

purpose of the borrowing entity to owning the related property, making payments on the related loan and taking<br />

such other actions as may be necessary to carry out the foregoing in order to reduce the risk that circumstances<br />

unrelated to the loan and related property result in a borrower insolvency. SPVs are generally used in<br />

commercial loan transactions to satisfy requirements of institutional lenders and recognised statistical rating<br />

organisations. In order to minimise the possibility that an SPV will be the subject of insolvency proceedings,<br />

provisions are generally contained in the SPV’s organisational documents and/or documentation relating to<br />

mortgage loans that, among other things, limit the indebtedness that can be incurred by such entity and restrict<br />

such entity from conducting business as an operating company (thus limiting exposure to outside creditors).<br />

The Credit Agreement contains provisions that no Obligor may carry on any business other than the<br />

ownership and management of its interests in any Property owned by it, or its interests in any Subsidiary owned<br />

by it. In the case of Guarantor 15 and its subsidiaries (Guarantor 16, Guarantor 17, Guarantor 18 and Guarantor<br />

22), each has undertaken additionally in the Credit Agreement that it has no further liabilities with respect to<br />

their respective care home businesses arising prior to sale of the same in June 2002, that cannot be satisfied out<br />

of the Approved Management Fee. In the case of Propco 10, the company may provide property management<br />

services to the Property Owners; additionally Propco 10 is the only Obligor permitted to have employees, and it<br />

is restricted to no more than six employees at any time. However, there can be no assurance that all or most of<br />

the restrictions customarily imposed on SPVs by institutional lenders and recognised statistical ratings<br />

organisations will be complied with by all the Obligors, and even if all or most of such restrictions have been<br />

complied with by the Obligors, there can be no assurance that such compliance will prevent the Borrower or any<br />

other Obligor from becoming insolvent.<br />

Certain of the Obligors were incorporated or formed for the purposes of acquiring (or refinancing the<br />

acquisition of) and holding the legal and beneficial interests in one or more related properties. The Issuer has<br />

been informed by the Loan Arranger that each of the Borrower and the Obligors (other than Propco 10) has no<br />

material or contingent liabilities (other than such as are fully subordinated pursuant to the Guarantee and<br />

Subordination Deed) except for the related Libra Whole Loan.<br />

As a result of the UK Pensions Act 2004, it is possible that the Obligors might be held statutorily<br />

responsible by the UK Pensions Regulator for a financial support contribution to the UK pension scheme of an<br />

affiliated company within the Borrower Group. The Issuer has been informed that no Obligor, other than<br />

Propco 10, may have any liability with respect to the employees of Propco 10 and their entitlements or benefits.<br />

Further, the Issuer has been informed that the pensions liabilities of Propco 10 are not “Defined Benefit<br />

Schemes” (as that term is used in the Pensions Act 2004), and it is only in connection with such schemes that<br />

such a contribution would usually arise.<br />

As shown in the table below, certain Obligors were formed shortly prior to the origination of the Libra<br />

Whole Loan whereas others were formed significantly prior to that.<br />

Accordingly, although each such Obligor represented at origination of the Libra Whole Loan that it had no<br />

existing material liabilities (other than indebtedness permitted under the Credit Agreement) and the Loan<br />

Arranger reviewed the pro forma balance sheet of the Borrower and operator statistics provided by the Property<br />

Owners, each such Obligor has been operating its respective Property for a substantial time prior to the<br />

origination of the Libra Whole Loan and, therefore, may have a substantial operating history. The existence of<br />

such prior operating history creates a higher risk for such Obligors that there may exist certain claims in<br />

connection with such prior operations that have not yet been made against such Obligor. There can be no<br />

assurance that such claims will not arise during the term of the Libra Loan and that, if they do arise, that the<br />

related Obligor will have sufficient resources to meet any such unforeseen claims.<br />

The insolvency of the Borrower, the Principal Tenant or any of their respective, direct or indirect<br />

subsidiaries would result in a Loan Event of Default, giving rise to an acceleration of the Libra Whole Loan and<br />

an enforcement of the Related Security. This could result in significant delays in the receipt by the Issuer of<br />

payments under the Libra Loan which could adversely affect the ability of the Issuer to make all payments due<br />

on the Notes.<br />

Tenant Concentration: A deterioration in the financial condition of a tenant can be particularly significant if<br />

property is leased to a single tenant or a small number of tenants. Properties leased to a single tenant or tenant<br />

group, or a small number of tenants or tenant groups, are also more susceptible to interruptions in cash flow if a<br />

tenant fails to renew any or all of its occupational leases. This is so because: (i) the financial effect of the<br />

absence of rental income may be severe; (ii) more time may be required to re-lease the space; and (iii)<br />

substantial capital costs may need to be incurred to make the space appropriate for replacement tenants. The<br />

Properties in relation to the Libra Whole Loan contain the following example of tenant concentration:<br />

Managing Director of Britannia Healthcare <strong>Limited</strong> has made a certified statement, confirming that the relevant amount due (of £51,408.14) has been paid<br />

in full in settlement thereof to HM Revenue & Customs. See “Risk Factors—Loan Related Risks—Risks Relating to Terms of the Occupational Leases”.<br />

Risks Relating to the Hedging Transactions: The Borrower has entered into two Swap Transactions, in<br />

relation to the Libra Whole Loan, pursuant to which the Borrower swaps an amount based on a fixed rate for an<br />

amount based on three-month LIBOR: (a) for the period from the date of origination of the Libra Whole Loan<br />

up to 15 January 2010 (the “Spot Swap”), and (b) for the period from 15 January 2010 up to 15 January 2017<br />

(the “Forward Swap” and together with the Spot Swap, the “Swap Transactions”). The notional balance of<br />

each Swap Transaction will be equal to the principal balance of the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

The obligations of the Borrower to pay amounts to the Swap Provider under the Swap Transactions rank<br />

senior to the obligations of the Borrower to make payments of interest and principal under the Credit Agreement<br />

with respect to the Libra Whole Loan. However, all payments received by the Borrower that are due to the<br />

Swap Provider will be deposited into the Tranching Account pursuant to the Senior Intercreditor Deed. The<br />

terms of the Senior Intercreditor Deed provide that any payments due to the Swap Provider (including any<br />

obligations to pay Swap Termination Payments, but excluding any Swap Subordinated Amounts) will be paid<br />

prior to any amounts being paid on account of the Libra Loan. Such amounts due to the Swap Provider that are<br />

paid senior to the Libra Loan are to be paid into the Collection Account. From the Collection Account, all<br />

amounts on the Spot Swap will be paid senior to any amounts paid on the Notes. However, any amounts due on<br />

the Forward Swap will only be paid after payments of principal and interest on the Class A Notes and Class X<br />

Notes (as to interest only) (the “Forward Swap Subordinate Amounts”) and prior to amounts on the Class B<br />

Notes.<br />

The Libra Whole Loan has no scheduled amortisation, and therefore the notional amount under the Swap<br />

Transactions has been set accordingly. There can be no assurance that the notional amount of the Swap<br />

Transaction will not become greater than the principal amount of the Libra Whole Loan in which case a<br />

termination payment may be due from the Borrower to the Swap Provider, which payment (other than with<br />

respect to the Forward Swap Subordinate Amounts) will rank senior to the Notes or, with respect to the Forward<br />

Swap Subordinate Amounts, will rank subordinate to the Class A Notes and Class X Notes but senior to all<br />

other Notes (other than the Class V Notes). Whilst the notional amount under the Swap Transaction is not<br />

45


scheduled to amortise over its term, if the Libra Whole Loan is prepaid or repaid in whole or in part, the terms<br />

of the Swap Transactions provide that there may be a partial termination of the Swap Transaction to cause the<br />

notional balance thereof to be reduced by the amount of such prepayment or repayment (allocated on a pro rata<br />

basis). See “The Libra Loan and Properties”.<br />

Therefore, in the event the notional amount of the then current Swap Transaction is greater than the<br />

principal amount of the Libra Whole Loan, the Borrower may incur costs in terminating that portion of the<br />

swap. As a result, amounts available for payments on the Libra Loan may be reduced.<br />

There are certain circumstances in which the Swap Transactions may be terminated, such as a downgrade in<br />

the rating of the Swap Provider. For a detailed discussion of these termination events, see “Description of the<br />

Swap Transactions” herein.<br />

Noteholders may suffer a loss if a Swap Transaction terminates and the Borrower, as a result of such<br />

termination, does not receive sufficient funds to make all payments then due on the Libra Whole Loan or the<br />

Borrower does not have sufficient cash flow from the Properties to pay interest on the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

In addition, if a Swap Transaction (or part thereof) terminates early, depending on the changes in LIBOR,<br />

then the Borrower may be obliged to make a Swap Termination Payment to the Swap Provider, which could<br />

reduce amounts available to the Borrower to pay the Libra Loan.<br />

The Issuer will, on or before the Closing Date, enter into the Basis Swap Transaction in connection with the<br />

Libra Loan to hedge the risk existing by virtue of the difference between the rate of interest payable by the<br />

Borrower under the Libra Loan and the rate of interest payable in respect of the Notes. Pursuant to the Basis<br />

Swap Transaction, the Issuer will receive on a quarterly basis, a floating rate of interest based on LIBOR<br />

calculated as at the reset date used in respect of payments due under the Notes in exchange for a floating rate of<br />

interest based on LIBOR calculated on the reset date used in respect of payments under the Libra Loan. The<br />

obligations of the Issuer to the Swap Provider under the Basis Swap Transaction (including any obligations to<br />

pay Swap Termination Payments) rank in priority to the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes.<br />

If the Libra Loan is prepaid in an amount that would cause the notional balance of the related Basis Swap<br />

Transaction to be more than 5 per cent. in excess of the principal balance of the Libra Loan, the terms of the<br />

Basis Swap Agreement provide that there will be a partial termination of such Basis Swap Transaction to cause<br />

the notional balance thereof to equal the outstanding principal balance of the Libra Loan. Therefore, in the<br />

event the notional amount of the Basis Swap Transaction is greater than the principal amount of the Libra Loan,<br />

the Issuer will be required to pay interest accrued on such excess notional amount at the rate set out in the Basis<br />

Swap Agreement (without corresponding Libra Loan interest collections).<br />

In the event the notional amount of the Basis Swap Transaction is less than the principal amount of the<br />

Libra Loan and the Issuer does not enter into hedging arrangements with respect to such excess, the Issuer will<br />

be exposed to interest rate risk. As a result, amounts available for distribution on the Notes may be reduced.<br />

Noteholders may suffer a loss if the Basis Swap Transaction terminates and the Issuer as a result of such<br />

termination, does not receive sufficient funds to make all payments then due on the Notes. Unless a<br />

replacement swap is entered into following such default, the Issuer may have insufficient funds to make<br />

payments under the Notes.<br />

There can be no assurance that upon a termination of the Basis Swap Transaction, the Issuer will have<br />

sufficient funds available to make a Swap Termination Payment, nor can there be any assurance that the Issuer<br />

will be able to enter into a replacement hedging transaction, or if one is entered into, that the credit rating of the<br />

replacement swap provider will be sufficiently high to prevent a downgrade of the then current ratings of the<br />

Notes by the Rating Agencies.<br />

For a more detailed description of the Swap Agreement, the Basis Swap Agreement, the Swap Transactions<br />

and the Basis Swap Transaction, see “The Libra Loan and Properties” and “Description of the Swap<br />

Transactions” below.<br />

Mortgagee in Possession Liability: A Security Agent or the Note Trustee (if the Note Trustee has taken<br />

enforcement action against the Issuer) may be deemed to be a mortgagee or heritable creditor in possession if<br />

the Security Agent or the Note Trustee physically enters into possession of a Property or performs an act of<br />

control or influence which may amount to possession, such as submitting a demand direct to the Libra Tenants<br />

requiring them to pay rents to the relevant Security Agent or the Note Trustee. The enforcement procedures<br />

46


contained in the Security Agreements contemplate that, following a default, notice would be served on the<br />

Tenants of a Property requiring all further rents to be paid directly to the Issuer. This could result in the relevant<br />

Security Agent (or the Note Trustee if it has taken enforcement action against the Issuer) becoming a mortgagee<br />

or heritable creditor in possession.<br />

A mortgagee or heritable creditor in possession has an obligation to account for the income obtained from<br />

the relevant Property and in the case of tenanted property will be liable to a Tenant for any mismanagement of<br />

the relevant Property. A mortgagee or heritable creditor in possession may also incur liabilities to third parties<br />

in nuisance and negligence and, under certain statutes (including environmental legislation), can incur the<br />

liabilities of a property owner.<br />

In a case where it is necessary to initiate enforcement procedures against the Borrower, the Special Servicer<br />

is likely to appoint a receiver to collect the Rental Income on behalf of the Issuer in respect of Properties located<br />

in England and Wales, which should have the effect of reducing the risk that either the Issuer or the Note<br />

Trustee is deemed to be a mortgagee or heritable creditor in possession. If the Special Servicer does not choose<br />

to enforce (or cannot enforce due to applicable law, as is the case in Scotland) via a receiver, the Note Trustee<br />

has the absolute discretion, at any time, to serve a written notice on the Special Servicer requiring the Special<br />

Servicer to obtain the Note Trustee’s prior written consent before taking any action which would be likely to<br />

lead to the Security Agent or the Note Trustee becoming a mortgagee or heritable creditor in possession in<br />

respect of a Property.<br />

Risks Relating to Security Trusts: The Related Security for the Libra Loan is held on trust for, among<br />

others, the lenders, by Credit Suisse, London Branch. There is a risk that, in any insolvency proceedings<br />

undertaken in relation to Credit Suisse, London Branch which are conducted in a jurisdiction other than England<br />

and Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland, the courts of the relevant jurisdiction may not recognise the security<br />

trusts and may consider the assets which are subject to the security trusts as forming part of Credit Suisse,<br />

London Branch’s estate. On the Closing Date, the Issuer will receive a legal opinion in relation to, among other<br />

matters, the efficacy of the security trusts as a matter of Swiss law.<br />

Enforcement; Receivers under English Law: A receiver (an “LPA Receiver”) appointed to enforce a fixed<br />

charge over real property granted by a company or an individual is usually appointed under the provisions of the<br />

Law of Property Act 1925 (“LPA”) and derives his powers from both the LPA and the charge instrument. An<br />

LPA Receiver’s powers are limited under statute to the powers to demand, recover and receive the income of<br />

property over which they have been appointed as receiver, but such powers are usually extended by the charge<br />

instrument and typically include the express power to take possession of the charged assets. Alternatively<br />

receivers may be appointed in respect of other fixed charge assets, their rights and powers deriving from the<br />

charge instrument.<br />

Where a receiver is appointed over the whole or substantially the whole of a company’s property by a<br />

secured lender under a charge which, as created, is a floating charge, or under such a charge and one or more<br />

other securities, the receiver is known as an “administrative receiver”, and has extensive powers, including the<br />

power to take possession of all charged assets and run the business of the company. As a result of the<br />

amendments to the Insolvency Act made pursuant to the Enterprise Act (see “—Enterprise Act 2002”, below),<br />

subject to limited exceptions, holders of floating charges created after 15 September 2003 are not able to appoint<br />

administrative receivers, and instead must enforce their security rights through an administration of the chargor.<br />

One of the exceptions contained in the amended Insolvency Act allows the continued appointment of an<br />

administrative receiver in relation to certain transactions in the capital markets. The relevant exception provides<br />

that the appointment of an administrative receiver is not prohibited if it is made in pursuance of an agreement<br />

which is or forms part of a capital markets arrangement (as defined in the Insolvency Act) under which a party<br />

incurs or, when such agreement was entered into was expected to incur, a debt of at least £50 million under the<br />

arrangement and the arrangement involves the issue of a capital market investment (also defined, but generally a<br />

rated, listed or traded debt instrument). It is expected that the Libra Whole Loan and the security that the Issuer<br />

will grant to the Note Trustee will each fall within the capital markets exception. However, it should be noted<br />

that there have been no decisions made by the UK courts on the interpretation of the relevant provisions of the<br />

Insolvency Act, and further, that the relevant Secretary of State may, by secondary legislation, modify the<br />

capital market exception and/or provide that the exception shall cease to have effect. No assurance can be given<br />

that any such later interpretation of or modification or provision in respect of the capital market exception, or its<br />

ceasing to be applicable to the transactions described in this Prospectus, will not be detrimental to the interests<br />

of the Noteholders.<br />

47


In addition, the law in England and Wales is unclear as to whether an administrative receiver may be<br />

appointed to a company that is incorporated overseas. As regards security granted by the Issuer incorporated<br />

overseas, while such an appointment ought to be possible, no assurance can be given that the English courts<br />

would uphold the appointment of an administrative receiver thereto if the appointment were challenged.<br />

The Insolvency Act also contains an out-of-court route into administration for a qualifying floating<br />

chargeholder, the directors or the relevant company itself. If the appointment is to be made by a qualifying<br />

floating chargeholder, it must give at least two business days’ written notice of its intention to appoint to any<br />

prior qualifying floating chargeholder, or obtain its written consent. If notice is given, a copy of that notice<br />

must be filed at court. Upon such filing, an interim moratorium on enforcement of the relevant security will<br />

take effect. That moratorium lasts for five business days beginning with the date of filing, or until an<br />

administrator is appointed (whichever is earlier). If the appointment is to be made by the company or its<br />

directors, they must give at least five business days’ written notice of their intention to appoint to any person<br />

who is or may be entitled to appoint an administrative receiver and to any person who is or may be the holder of<br />

any qualifying floating charge entitled to appoint an administrator out-of-court. A copy of that notice must be<br />

filed at court. Upon such filing, an interim moratorium on enforcement of the relevant security will take effect.<br />

That moratorium lasts for ten business days beginning with the date of filing of the notice, or until an<br />

administrator is appointed (whichever is earlier). During the notice period, the holder of a qualifying floating<br />

charge can appoint its own insolvency practitioner, rather than the company’s or directors’ chosen insolvency<br />

practitioner, as administrator. If a person entitled to receive a notice of intention to appoint does not respond to<br />

the notice of intention to appoint, the appointer’s chosen administrator will take office after the notice period has<br />

elapsed and upon a notice of intention to appoint being filed at court. Where the holder of a qualifying floating<br />

charge within the context of a capital market transaction retains the power to appoint an administrative receiver,<br />

such holder may prevent the appointment of an administrator (either by the new out-of-court route or by the<br />

court based procedure) by appointing an administrative receiver prior to the appointment of the administrator<br />

being completed. These provisions of the Insolvency Act give primary emphasis in relation to administration to<br />

the rescue of a company as a going concern and achieving a better result for the creditors as a whole. No<br />

assurance can be given that the primary purpose of the new provisions will not conflict with the interests of<br />

Noteholders were the Issuer ever subject to administration. Administrative receivers often require an indemnity<br />

to meet their costs and expenses as a condition of their appointment. Such an indemnity would rank ahead of<br />

payments on the lending. However, where the lender believes that a chargor is diligently taking all appropriate<br />

steps to make good any breach under a loan or charge instrument, and the security granted in respect of lending<br />

is not prejudiced, or where the lender does not believe it would be in the interests of the Noteholders to do so,<br />

the lender may decline or defer appointment of any receiver.<br />

In cases where a property is lawfully occupied by third parties pursuant to leasehold interests granted by the<br />

related owner of the property, the receiver’s right to possession would be exercised by directing the tenants to<br />

pay rent to the lender.<br />

Receivers may choose to sell the property the subject of the security interest. Alternatively the receiver<br />

may choose to manage and operate the asset itself for a period of time. Receivers may have powers to borrow<br />

funds to operate the property (which are treated as an expense of the receivership and so rank ahead of the<br />

secured debt) or re-let or redevelop the property.<br />

In the event that a receiver were to be appointed in relation to a Borrower and/or its respective assets, there<br />

may be delays in timely receipt of payments by the Issuer, or deductions from amounts due to the Issuer in<br />

respect of indemnities to or borrowings by a receiver, each of which in turn, may have an adverse impact on the<br />

funds available in respect of the Notes.<br />

Enforcement – Scotland: Whereas in England and Wales it is possible to appoint a receiver to enforce a<br />

fixed charge over real property which has been granted by a company (usually under the LPA) who derives<br />

power from both the LPA and the charge instrument, it is not possible to appoint an LPA Receiver in relation to<br />

Properties situated in Scotland (a “Scottish Property”). Instead, the Security Agent as heritable creditor must<br />

enforce in its own name in accordance with the Conveyancing and Feudal Reform (Scotland) Act 1970 as<br />

amended (the “1970 Act”). The 1970 Act dictates the remedies available to the Security Agent on enforcement.<br />

At any time after the Libra Whole Loan or its Related Security have become enforceable, the Security Agent has<br />

three possible routes to initiate enforcement in relation to Scottish Properties:<br />

(a) serving a calling up notice (in the format prescribed by the 1970 Act) requiring payment of the amounts<br />

due; the relevant Obligor has two months to pay the amounts due (although the two month period can<br />

be shortened by agreement);<br />

48


(b) serving a notice of default (in the format prescribed by the 1970 Act) to demand repayment of the<br />

amounts due, or to require a non-monetary breach to be remedied; the relevant Obligor has a month to<br />

comply with such notice of default although (1) the notice of default can be appealed by the relevant<br />

Obligor and (2) the one month period can be shortened by agreement; or<br />

(c) applying for a Court decree under Section 24 of the 1970 Act.<br />

In the event that default is established by one of the foregoing methods, the Security Agent may proceed to<br />

sell the relevant Scottish Property and, in terms of the 1970 Act, must take all reasonable steps to ensure that the<br />

price at which the relevant Scottish Property is sold is the best that can be reasonably obtained.<br />

In addition, the Security Agent may enter into possession of the relevant Scottish Property, although a court<br />

decree may be required to exercise all rights of the owner of the relevant property. If the creditor under a<br />

standard security enters or is deemed to have entered into possession, certain liabilities can be inherited by that<br />

creditor (for example, environmental liabilities, liability to implement a statutory notice or pay rates). There is<br />

no statutory definition of “entering into possession” but it will not be constituted by the service of a calling up<br />

notice or a notice of default or obtaining a court decree under Section 24 of the 1970 Act alone. It is thought<br />

that the creditor (i.e. the Security Agent) must exercise some degree of management of the secured property,<br />

although precisely how much is unclear.<br />

The provisions of the Enterprise Act and Insolvency Act referred to in “—Enforcement; Receivers under<br />

English Law” above apply equally in Scotland and the powers of any administrative receiver appointed in<br />

relation to the assets of the Issuer as described therein will extend over any such assets situated in Scotland or<br />

otherwise governed by Scots law.<br />

Enforcement – Northern Ireland: A receiver appointed under the relevant Northern Ireland Legislation<br />

(Conveyancing & Law of Property Act 1881) would have powers broadly similar to those of an English LPA<br />

receiver. Similarly, the Enterprise Act 2002 applies in Northern Ireland. See “—Enforcement; Receivers Under<br />

English Law” above.<br />

Geographic Concentration; The Economy of the United Kingdom: All of the Properties are located in the<br />

United Kingdom. Repayments under the Libra Loan and the market value of the Properties could be adversely<br />

affected by conditions in the property markets where the Properties are located, acts of nature, including floods<br />

(which may result in uninsured losses), and other factors which are beyond the control of the Borrower. In<br />

addition, the performance of the Properties will be dependent upon the strength of the economies of the specific<br />

areas in which the Properties are located.<br />

Property Condition Assessment: The Engineering Report consisted of full inspections of a sample of 50<br />

Properties representing 31.2 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the<br />

aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount which were conducted by appropriately qualified engineers or<br />

chartered surveyors to assess, inter alia, the structure, exterior walls, roofing, interior construction, mechanical<br />

and electrical systems and general conditions of the site and buildings. In each instance, the Loan Arranger<br />

determined that such items were being or would be addressed by the Borrower Group in a satisfactory manner<br />

(see “The Libra Loan and Properties”). The Engineering Report states that certain of the Properties may require<br />

capital or maintenance expenditure. Such recommended repairs were for items of general maintenance, such as<br />

repairs and maintenance to the roofs and passenger lifts. The Loan Arranger believed that the cash flow on the<br />

Properties would be sufficient to pay for such recommended maintenance and repairs which were the landlords’<br />

responsibilities. All other costs which were not the responsibility of the relevant tenant in accordance with its<br />

lease and which were recommended in the Engineering Report were provisioned for by means of an upfront<br />

reserve in the Capital Expenditure Reserve Account of approximately £216,000.<br />

The Engineering Report carried out with regard to the Properties was based on condition overview reports<br />

relating to inspections of 50 sample properties. There can be no assurance that all property conditions and risks<br />

have been completely or accurately identified in the condition overview reports or that there are no property<br />

conditions or risks with respect to those Properties for which no inspection was carried out and so there may be<br />

other property conditions and risks of which the Loan Arranger is unaware. Each of these matters could<br />

adversely affect the value of the affected Property and its ability to attract tenants. There is no assurance that<br />

any required capital or maintenance expenditure in relation to recommended maintenance and repairs that has<br />

been identified will be carried out in relation to any Property.<br />

49


With respect to certain of the condition overview reports, the recommended aggregate provision in respect<br />

of long-term and short-term repairs and maintenance did not exceed £500,000. In general, the Engineering<br />

Report estimated a total maintenance cost for the Properties in the sample, at the expense of the relevant tenant,<br />

of £2,733,000 over a period of up to seven years.<br />

Risks Relating to Tenants and Leases: The borrower under a mortgage loan secured by income-producing<br />

property generally relies on periodic rental payments to service the mortgage loan and any other debt or<br />

obligations it may have outstanding. There can be no guarantee that tenants will renew leases upon expiration<br />

or, in the case of a commercial tenant, that it will remain solvent and able to perform its obligations throughout<br />

the term of its lease. The insolvency of the Principal Tenant is a Loan Event of Default.<br />

There is a particular risk of non-renewal of leases in respect of properties which are leased but not occupied.<br />

Income from, and the market value of, the Properties would be adversely affected if space in the Properties<br />

could not be leased or re-let, if tenants were unable to meet their lease obligations, if a major tenant (or a<br />

number of smaller tenants) were to become insolvent, or if for any other reason rental payments could not be<br />

collected. Any tenant may, from time to time, experience a downturn in its business, which may weaken its<br />

financial condition and result in a reduction or failure to make rental payments when due. If a tenant,<br />

particularly a major tenant, defaults in its obligations under its lease, the Borrower may experience delays in<br />

enforcing its rights as lessor and may incur substantial costs and experience significant delays associated with<br />

protecting its investments, including costs incurred in renovating and reletting the relevant Property.<br />

Net operating income from a commercial property may be reduced and the Borrower’s ability to repay a<br />

loan impaired, as a result of, among other things, an increase in vacancy rates for the property, a decline in<br />

market rental rates as leases are renewed or entered into with new tenants, an increase in operating expenses of<br />

the property and/or an increase in capital expenditures needed to maintain the property.<br />

Risks Relating to the Dependence on Affiliates or Subsidiaries of Southern Cross Healthcare Group PLC:<br />

242 Properties, representing 86.7 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon<br />

the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount are occupied under occupational leases granted to members<br />

of the Southern Cross Healthcare Group PLC group of companies (collectively, the “Principal Tenant”).<br />

As stated in Southern Cross Healthcare Group PLC’s Annual Report and Accounts for 2006, its brand,<br />

Southern Cross Healthcare, is the largest provider of care homes for the elderly in the UK. In addition, it is a<br />

major provider of specialist services for people with physical or learning disabilities. In July 2006, the shares of<br />

Southern Cross Healthcare Group PLC were listed on the London <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong>.<br />

The Principal Tenant’s business outcome is subject to risks and uncertainties, including:<br />

• a significant portion of its operating costs are wages of staff on national minimum wage as established<br />

by The National Minimum Wage Regulations 1999, as amended (the “National Minimum Wage”)<br />

and any increase in National Minimum Wage would significantly increase pay roll costs;<br />

• the provision of care services in the United Kingdom is a regulated industry, and legislation may<br />

require spending on, inter alia, the Properties or any other facilities operated by the Principal Tenant or<br />

in some cases their closure;<br />

• the largest source of income is from local authorities whose source of funds is tax payers; a reducing<br />

pool of tax payers, and incentives to assist the elderly to live at home may result in a decline in income;<br />

• should the Principal Tenant be required to close (including due to a lack of demand, or obsolescence) a<br />

significant number of its facilities, then ones which are purpose-built may not quickly find alternative<br />

uses and will require (under applicable UK planning law) change of use, and also a licence from the<br />

relevant landlord to change use, receipt of which cannot be assured;<br />

• as a significant number of its facilities are primarily occupied by elderly residents who may be more<br />

susceptible to contracting contagious diseases, such as Legionella, such facilities in certain cases may<br />

require expenditure and/or closure;<br />

50


• in connection with its acquisitions and refinancing, the financing costs of Southern Cross Healthcare<br />

Group PLC have increased, thus potentially rendering it more vulnerable to any increases in borrowing<br />

which are not hedged.<br />

No assurance can be given that the Principal Tenant will continue making payments under the Occupational<br />

Leases granted to it or that the Principal Tenant will not become insolvent in the future. The large number of<br />

Properties leased to the Principal Tenant means that the Issuer does not have the benefit of tenant credit risk<br />

diversification, and is substantially reliant upon the creditworthiness of the Principal Tenant. No assurance can<br />

be given as to the creditworthiness of the Principal Tenant, and Noteholders, particularly investors in the<br />

subordinate Classes of Notes, should make their own assessment of such matters. Additionally, there can be no<br />

assurance that the ratings on the Notes will not be adversely affected as a result of a decline in the financial<br />

condition of the Principal Tenant. The shares of the Principal Tenant have been listed on the London <strong>Stock</strong><br />

<strong>Exchange</strong> since July 2006 and its annual report and accounts and other financial information is publicly<br />

available on www.investors.schealthcare.co.uk (which website does not form part of this Offering Circular).<br />

Overriding Leases: “Overriding Leases” have been granted (for a term of 99 years from 19 January 1999)<br />

by the relevant freeholder or long leasehold owner in the Borrower Group (the “Superior Landlord”) to each of<br />

Propco 6, Propco 7, Propco 8 and Propco 9 (each an “Overriding Tenant”) each of which paid a capital sum of<br />

money to the Superior Landlord for the Overriding Lease. The Overriding Tenant pays a nominal annual rent of<br />

a peppercorn or £1 per annum to the Superior Landlord. The effect of each Overriding Lease was to interpose<br />

the Overriding Tenant’s interest between that of the Superior Landlord and the holders of the relevant<br />

Occupational Lease granted in respect of a Property, so that rental income paid under the Occupational Lease<br />

would be paid to the Overriding Tenant. Should the Superior Landlord wish to dispose of its interest in a<br />

Property which is the subject of an Overriding Lease, the consent of the related Overriding Tenant is required.<br />

Overriding Leases were granted to: (i) Propco 6 in respect of 93 Properties located in England and Wales and<br />

nine Properties located in Scotland, representing respectively, 32.6 per cent. and 4.0 per cent. of the Cut-Off<br />

Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount; (ii)<br />

Propco 7 in respect of 62 Properties located in England and Wales and 21 Properties located in Scotland,<br />

representing respectively, 16.6 per cent. and 9.3 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal<br />

Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount; (iii) Propco 9 in respect of 30<br />

Properties located in England and Wales and five Properties located in Scotland, representing respectively, 7.0<br />

per cent. and 1.9 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate<br />

Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount; (iv) Propco 8 in respect of 19 Properties located in England and one<br />

Property located in Scotland, representing respectively, 7.7 per cent. and 0.4 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date<br />

Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount; and (v)<br />

Propco 14 in respect of one Property located in Northern Ireland, representing 0.2 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date<br />

Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount. Net Rental<br />

Income is paid by the tenant of each Occupational Lease to the related Overriding Tenant rather than the<br />

Superior Landlord; the Overriding Tenant is a member of the Borrower Group.<br />

Risks Relating to Long Leaseholds: The Libra Whole Loan is secured in part by seven long leasehold<br />

Properties, and two part leasehold and part freehold Properties, located in England, Scotland and Northern<br />

Ireland representing respectively, 2.6 per cent. and 0.9 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal<br />

Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount. The seven long leasehold and two<br />

part leasehold and part freehold interests have been granted by freeholders which are outside the Borrower<br />

Group. Accordingly, all other leasehold interests (such as the Overriding Leases) of any member of the<br />

Borrower Group have been granted by a freeholder which is an Affiliate. A long leasehold property represents<br />

an interest by leasehold, rather than freehold, whereby the Property Owner holds its interest by way of a<br />

headlease. The forfeiture (or, in Scotland, irritancy) provisions of the related leases may provide that the<br />

Property Owner may forfeit or irritate upon events such as the non-payment of rent or other breach of covenant.<br />

Since the landlord has a superior interest in the related Property to that of the lender, such a forfeiture or<br />

irritancy will cause the lender, as mortgagee or heritable creditor, to lose its security in the Property.<br />

If, in relation to Properties in England, the landlord exercises its right of forfeiture under a long lease, the<br />

Servicer or the Special Servicer will, on behalf of the Security Agent, be able to apply for relief against such<br />

forfeiture if the Security Agent holds a legal mortgage over the Property. However, if it obtains such relief, the<br />

new lease would be granted, on the same terms as the forfeited lease, in favour of a company formed specially<br />

for such purpose established by the Security Agent so as to avoid the Security Agent becoming directly<br />

responsible for such lease. In relation to Properties in Scotland, the Security Agent (or the Servicer or Special<br />

Servicer on its behalf) will have no equivalent rights of relief in relation to the one Scots leasehold Property.<br />

The related lease however contains contractual provisions conferring on the Security Agent, as holder of a<br />

51


standard security over the relevant Property, a reasonable period within which to remedy the breach, during<br />

which the operation of the irritancy will be suspended.<br />

Under the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer will be required to keep records as to the payment of rents<br />

under any such long leasehold. If the related tenant fails to pay such rent, the Servicer or Special Servicer, as<br />

applicable, will have the ability to pay such rent on the behalf of such tenant and to be reimbursed by the Issuer<br />

accordingly.<br />

Terms of the Occupational Leases: The Occupational Leases can terminate earlier than anticipated if the<br />

relevant tenant surrenders its lease (which may only be done with the consent of the relevant landlord) or<br />

defaults in the performance of its obligations. As such, the relevant Property Owner will have to either seek to<br />

renew such tenancies or find new occupational tenants for the vacated premises.<br />

The Occupational Leases in relation to 49 Properties situated in England and Wales, 15 Properties situated<br />

in Scotland and four Properties situated in Northern Ireland, collectively representing 25.6 per cent. of the Cut-<br />

Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount<br />

contain options granted by the relevant Obligor freeholder or long leaseholder to the Principal Tenant to<br />

purchase the relevant Obligor’s interest in the Property. The options are exercisable if the relevant Obligor<br />

freeholder or long leaseholder is required by law to charge VAT on the rent payable by the Principal Tenant and<br />

the Principal Tenant is unable to recover such VAT. If so, the Principal Tenant may purchase the interest of the<br />

relevant Obligor freeholder or long leaseholder in accordance with an agreed formula (being either the open<br />

market value of the Property or a multiplier of 16x the annual rent payable by the Principal Tenant, whichever is<br />

the higher).<br />

If the options are exercised prior to the Maturity Date, then the relevant Obligor freeholder or long<br />

leaseholder would be required to make prepayments of the Libra Whole Loan in accordance with the Credit<br />

Agreement of 115 per cent. of the Allocated Loan Amount for the relevant Property (or, 110 per cent. of<br />

Allocated Loan Amount, if the value of the Properties disposed of, when aggregated with the value of all<br />

Properties which have been disposed of, does not exceed 15 per cent. of the value of all the Properties on 15<br />

January <strong>2007</strong>) (“Disposal ALA”). However, if on a disposal of a Property, the Disposal ALA which is to be<br />

prepaid as calculated under the Credit Agreement and the PIK Facility Loan is less than 90 per cent. of the net<br />

proceeds from that disposal, the Borrower is required to pay an amount equal to the difference between (i) the<br />

Disposal ALA and amounts due under the PIK Facility Loan, and (ii) the net proceeds from such disposal,<br />

which will be applied in prepayment on a pro rata basis of the Libra Whole Loan and the PIK Facility Loan.<br />

See “The Libra Loan and Properties—Certain Terms of the Libra Whole Loan—Disposals of Properties”.<br />

There can be no assurance that prior to the Maturity Date there will be no change to United Kingdom tax<br />

law such that the relevant Obligor freeholder or long leaseholder becomes required to charge VAT on such rent,<br />

nor that were VAT to become chargeable that the Principal Tenant would be able to recover such amounts of<br />

VAT, and would therefore not exercise its option. Further, there can be no assurance that amounts received by<br />

the relevant Obligor freeholder or long leaseholder would be sufficient to meet the prepayment obligations<br />

under the Credit Agreement.<br />

In relation to 241 Properties in England and Wales, representing 78.1 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date<br />

Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount and four<br />

Properties in Northern Ireland, representing 1.0 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance<br />

based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount, an agreement is in place such that at the end of<br />

the relevant current term, the relevant Occupational Lease will be extended to expire on 29 May 2041. In<br />

relation to all 42 Properties in Scotland, representing 17.9 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan<br />

Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount, a variation of each<br />

Occupational Lease has been entered into pursuant to which both the relevant landlord and the relevant Tenant<br />

may by written notice require the other party to enter into a replacement occupational lease terminating on 29<br />

May 2041 and otherwise on the same terms (other than rent) as the current Occupational Lease. The<br />

aforementioned Properties comprise all of the 239 Properties which are occupied pursuant to Occupational<br />

Leases entered into with the Principal Tenant, representing 86.7 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan<br />

Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Allocated Loan Amount. Of the 55 remaining Properties<br />

occupied pursuant to Occupational Leases with other Tenants, 48 Occupational Leases also expire on 29 May<br />

2041, representing 10.4 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the<br />

aggregate Cut-Off Allocated Loan Amount, and seven Properties have Occupational Leases expiring between<br />

2020 and 2022, representing 2.9 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon<br />

the aggregate Cut-Off Allocated Loan Amount.<br />

52


Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, no new lease may be entered into and no existing lease may be<br />

amended, surrendered, sub-leased or assigned and no rent review may be agreed in relation to any lease without<br />

the consent of the Lender under the Credit Agreement. However, certain such things may be done in particular<br />

circumstances without the consent of the Lender.<br />

However, there can be no assurance that leases on terms (including rent payable and covenants of the<br />

landlord) equivalent to those applicable to the leases in place on the Closing Date will be obtainable in the<br />

market at such time, that market practice will not have changed or that the circumstances of prospective tenants<br />

will not make some or all of such provisions inappropriate. The discretions given to the Borrower under the<br />

Credit Agreement as to the matters described above may result in a diminution in the quality of the tenants of<br />

the Properties or the terms of their occupational leases over the life of the Notes.<br />

No assurance can be given that Tenants in the Properties will continue making payments under their leases<br />

or that any such Tenants will not become insolvent or subject to administration in the future or, if any such<br />

tenants become subject to administration, that they will continue to make rental payments in a timely manner.<br />

In addition, a Tenant may, from time to time, experience a downturn in its business, which may weaken its<br />

financial condition and result in a failure to make rental payments when due. If a Tenant defaults in its<br />

obligations under its Occupational Lease, the relevant Property Owner may experience delays in enforcing its<br />

rights as lessor and may incur costs and experience delays associated with protecting its investment, including<br />

costs incurred in renovating and re-letting the relevant Property. In addition, if a Tenant is a subsidiary of a<br />

rated parent company, absent a guarantee or other profit and loss absorption agreement, the parent company will<br />

not be responsible for its subsidiary’s obligations under the related Occupational Lease.<br />

A petition was presented to the Court of Session in Edinburgh by HM Revenue & Customs on 14 March<br />

<strong>2007</strong> for the winding up of Britannia Healthcare <strong>Limited</strong> (“Britannia Healthcare”). The same petition also<br />

included an application for a liquidator to be appointed in respect of Britannia Healthcare. Britannia Healthcare<br />

guarantees the leases of its affiliate (Britannia Leased Homes <strong>Limited</strong> (“BLHL”)) which operates six freehold<br />

Properties located in England, representing 1.8 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance<br />

based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount, and representing in aggregate 1.9 per cent. of<br />

Annualised Base Rent. At the date of this document, there is no further information on the status of the petition,<br />

other than that it has been presented, and no order to wind up has been granted (or dismissed) by the Court. On<br />

17 May <strong>2007</strong>, the Loan Arranger received a certified statement from the Managing Director of Britannia<br />

Healthcare, confirming that on 10 May <strong>2007</strong> the amount due to HM Revenue & Customs (of £51,408.14) was<br />

paid to HM Revenue & Customs in full in settlement of all amounts due and payable by Britannia Healthcare to<br />

HM Revenue & Customs.<br />

Should, notwithstanding the above, a winding up order be made in respect of Britannia Healthcare, the<br />

relevant occupational leases may be forfeited by the relevant Occupational Tenant (BLHL, for whom Britannia<br />

Healthcare is surety). If the Court were to order that Britannia Healthcare is wound up and a liquidator<br />

appointed, then the relevant landlord (which is a member of the Borrower Group) may commence forfeiture<br />

proceedings against the relevant tenant, BLHL. If the landlord regains possession of the property it may re-let<br />

the Properties to another tenant.<br />

Any of these factors may result in a decline in the income produced by the Properties or the incurrence by<br />

the Property Owners of unforeseen liabilities, which may in turn adversely affect the ability of the Borrower to<br />

meet their obligations in respect of the Libra Loan and hence the ability of the Issuer to make payments on the<br />

Notes.<br />

Frustration of Tenancies: A tenancy could, in exceptional circumstances, be frustrated under English law,<br />

Scots law or Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law, whereupon the parties need not perform any obligation arising under the<br />

relevant agreement after the frustration has taken place. Under English or Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law, frustration may<br />

occur where superseding events radically alter the continuance of the arrangement under the agreement for a<br />

party thereto, so that it would be inequitable for such an agreement or agreements to continue. Under the<br />

equivalent Scots law principle of rei interitus, a tenancy will (subject to express agreement to the contrary)<br />

terminate if the leased property is destroyed to the extent that it is no longer tenantable or if an event occurs<br />

which otherwise precludes performance of the parties’ rights and obligations under the relevant tenancy<br />

agreement. If a tenancy granted in respect of a property is frustrated this could operate to have an adverse effect<br />

on the income derived from, or able to be generated by, a particular property, which could cause the owner of<br />

such property to default on the Libra Loan. Therefore, there can be no assurance that any lease will not<br />

terminate earlier than its term as a result of frustration.<br />

53


Rights of Tenants: The Obligors are under an obligation, among other things, to allow each tenant quiet<br />

enjoyment of the premises which are leased to it and to perform certain specified obligations. Where an Obligor<br />

is in default of its obligations under a tenancy under the general law, a right of set-off could be exercised against<br />

that Obligor by a tenant of the relevant Property in respect of its rental obligations.<br />

Statutory Rights of Tenants: In certain limited circumstances, in particular relating to the renewals of<br />

tenancies, a tenant of a Property may have legal rights to require the Obligors to grant it a lease, for example<br />

pursuant to the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954. This Act applies in England and Wales only, and in Scotland the<br />

only similar statutory rights are restricted to retail premises, in relation to which the Tenancy of Shops<br />

(Scotland) Act 1949 entitles a tenant, whose tenancy has been terminated by notice, to apply to the court for an<br />

extension to its lease of up to one year (and, if granted, for further renewals thereafter). In Northern Ireland, any<br />

tenant occupying premises under a business tenancy has a statutory right to call for a new lease at the end of its<br />

tenancy under the Business Tenancies (Northern Ireland) Order 1996. This can only be opposed by the landlord<br />

in certain specified circumstances and, unlike in England and Wales, cannot be excluded by agreement between<br />

the parties. Should such a right arise, the relevant Obligor may not have the normal freedom to negotiate the<br />

terms of the new lease with the tenant, such terms being imposed by the court or being the same as those under<br />

the previous tenancy of the relevant premises.<br />

Appointment of Substitute Servicer or Substitute Special Servicer: The termination of the appointment of<br />

the Servicer or the Special Servicer under the Servicing Agreement will only be effective once a substitute<br />

servicer or substitute special servicer, as the case may be, has effectively been appointed (see “Servicing”<br />

below). There is no guarantee that a suitable substitute servicer or substitute special servicer could be found<br />

who would be willing to service the Libra Whole Loan or the Libra Loan and the Related Security at a<br />

commercially reasonable fee, or at all, on the terms of the Servicing Agreement (even though such agreement<br />

provides for the fees payable to a substitute servicer or substitute special servicer to be consistent with those<br />

payable generally at that time for the provision of the relevant commercial mortgage administration services).<br />

The fees and expenses of a substitute servicer or substitute special servicer performing services in this way<br />

would be payable in priority to payment of interest under the Notes. In any event, the ability of such substitute<br />

servicer or substitute special servicer to perform such services fully would depend on the information and<br />

records then available to it.<br />

Environmental Risks: Existing environmental legislation imposes liability for clean-up costs on the owner<br />

or occupier of land if the person who caused or knowingly permitted the pollution cannot be found. The term<br />

“owner” would include anyone with a proprietary interest in a property. Even if more than one person may have<br />

been responsible for the contamination, each person covered by the relevant environmental laws may be held<br />

responsible for all the clean up costs incurred.<br />

If any environmental liability were to exist in respect of any Property, none of the Security Agent, the Note<br />

Trustee or the Issuer should incur responsibility for such liability prior to enforcement of the Libra Loan and any<br />

Related Security, unless it could be established that the Security Agent or the Note Trustee (or the Servicer or<br />

the Special Servicer on behalf of the Security Agent and/or the Note Trustee) had entered into possession of the<br />

affected Property or could be said to be in control of the Property. After enforcement, the Security Agent or the<br />

Note Trustee, if deemed to be a mortgagee or heritable creditor in possession, or a receiver appointed on behalf<br />

of the Security Agent or the Note Trustee (where applicable), could become responsible for environmental<br />

liabilities in respect of a Property.<br />

If an environmental liability arises in relation to any Property and is not remedied, or is not capable of being<br />

remedied, this may result in an inability to sell the Property or in a reduction in the price obtained for the<br />

Property, resulting in a sale at a loss.<br />

In addition, third parties may sue a current or previous owner, occupier or operator of a site for damages<br />

and costs resulting from substances emanating from that site, and the presence of substances on the Property<br />

could result in personal injury or similar claims by private plaintiffs.<br />

The Environmental Report was conducted by means of desktop reviews with respect to the Properties in<br />

connection with the origination of the Libra Whole Loan. Some of the reviews identified the use, or prior use,<br />

of certain of the sites or locations in the nearby vicinity of the sites for certain specified polluting activities.<br />

However, in the cases where it was deemed necessary to investigate further through consultations with<br />

environmental regulators, such investigations concluded that such sites were not polluted nor were they<br />

considered to be a likely cause of pollution to any extent that necessitated remedial action other than as set out<br />

below. In no case did these investigations identify any material, existing, environmental issues with the<br />

54


Properties. However, there can be no assurance that all environmental conditions and risks have been<br />

completely or accurately identified in the Environmental Report.<br />

According to the Environmental Report, of the 293 sites comprising the portfolio, 184 Properties,<br />

representing 58.3 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate<br />

Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount, were classified as having a low risk of ground contamination; 104<br />

Properties, representing 39.6 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the<br />

aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount were classified as having a low/medium risk; four Properties,<br />

representing 1.3 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-<br />

Off Date Allocated Loan Amount were considered medium risk; one Property, representing 0.3 per cent. of the<br />

Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan<br />

Amount was considered medium/high risk; and none were considered high risk. The Environmental Report<br />

assumed that one of the sites designated as medium risk may require gas protection measures as it was reported<br />

to be generating significant quantities of methane gas, and the potential liabilities have been calculated as being<br />

in the region of £30,000. As regards one of the four sites that has been classified as medium/high risk, the risk<br />

relates to the potentially significant liabilities associated with the non-compliance of the site’s sewage treatment<br />

facilities. The Environment Agency has required a remedial action plan to be submitted for bringing their<br />

sewage treatment works in line with the applicable discharge consent conditions and the relevant officer<br />

indicated that this would require a significant investment. However, the Environmental Report assumes that<br />

liability for this would fall on the tenant and no estimate of costs has been associated with this required work.<br />

For the purposes of the Environmental Report, the qualification of a site as having a “low” or “low/medium<br />

risk” of contamination means that no issues were identified or where it is unlikely that the potential issue<br />

identified will arise as a liability/cost for the owner of the site for a continued site use. A qualification of<br />

“medium risk” in the Environmental Report means that it is possible that the issue could arise as a liability/cost<br />

for the owner of the site and that further work may be required to clarify the risk and a qualification as a “high<br />

risk” that it is likely that the issue will arise as a liability/cost for the owner of the site.<br />

The Valuation Report stated that the Valuer had not had sight of a copy of any asbestos management plan in<br />

respect of the Properties. However, the Valuer further stated in the Valuation Report that the management of<br />

and responsibility for asbestos-containing materials would most likely be the responsibility of the occupational<br />

tenant, since the occupational tenant will be primarily responsible for dealing with evidence of asbestos on the<br />

relevant Property pursuant to requirements in the relevant Occupational Lease to comply with all statutory<br />

requirements.<br />

There can be no assurance that any recommended provision sum will be adequate for the actual amount of<br />

any costs which may arise. On origination of the Libra Whole Loan an amount of £100,000 was reserved in the<br />

Capital Expenditure Reserve Account as an upfront reserve against environmental costs identified during the<br />

environmental assessment.<br />

It should also be noted that if any additional development were to be undertaken at a Property, additional<br />

environmental surveys may be required in connection with obtaining the necessary planning consents for such<br />

development. If any such environmental survey indicates that there are environmental issues with respect to<br />

such property, whether because of a conversion in usage or otherwise, it is possible that, were the Tenant not<br />

primarily responsible, the Borrower will be required to remediate such environmental issues.<br />

If the Libra Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan then before the Special Servicer acquires title<br />

to a Property on behalf of the Issuer or the Note Trustee, as applicable, or assumes operation of the Property, it<br />

must obtain a new environmental survey of such Property. This requirement will decrease the likelihood that<br />

the Issuer or the Note Trustee, as applicable, will become liable under any applicable local environmental law.<br />

However, this requirement may effectively preclude enforcement under the Libra Loan, or at least until a<br />

satisfactory environmental assessment is obtained (or until any required remedial action is thereafter taken).<br />

There is accordingly some risk that the Property will decline in value while this assessment is being obtained.<br />

Moreover, there is no assurance this requirement will effectively insulate the Issuer from potential liability<br />

under applicable local environmental laws.<br />

Legal Title: All of the Properties located in the United Kingdom comprise registered land or the equivalent.<br />

The Property Owner in relation to certain Properties may not have been registered or recorded immediately as<br />

legal or heritable proprietor of that Property and consequently the Security Agent may not be registered or<br />

recorded immediately as proprietor of the legal mortgage at the Land Registry (in England) or the Land Registry<br />

in Northern Ireland, as applicable, or (in Scotland) in the Land Register or the Sasine Register (the “Registers of<br />

Scotland”) as heritable creditor of the standard security granted to it by the Property Owner over that Property.<br />

55


The Loan Arranger has confirmed, following consultation with its external legal advisers, that it is not<br />

aware of any reason why the Property Owner in question should not in due course be registered or recorded as<br />

legal or heritable proprietor of the relevant Property to which it is acquiring legal title or why the Security Agent<br />

should not in due course be registered or recorded as proprietor of the mortgage or heritable creditor of the<br />

standard security over any Property.<br />

Compulsory Purchase: Any property in the United Kingdom may at any time be compulsorily acquired by,<br />

among others, a local or public authority or a government department generally in connection with proposed<br />

redevelopment or infrastructure projects. No such compulsory purchase proposals have been revealed in the<br />

Certificates of Title, the Legal Overview Reports or the Legal Overview Commentary issued by the English,<br />

Scots or Northern <strong>Irish</strong> lawyers in relation to any of the Properties.<br />

If a compulsory purchase order were to be made in respect of a Property (or part thereof), compensation<br />

would be payable on the basis of the open market value of all of the relevant Property Owner’s and the Tenants’<br />

proprietary interests in the relevant Property (or part thereof) at the time of the related purchase. The relevant<br />

freehold estate and any tenancy would both be acquired and the Tenants would cease to be obliged to make any<br />

further rental payments to the relevant Property Owner under the relevant tenancy. The risk to Noteholders is<br />

that the amount received from the proceeds of purchase of the freehold or leasehold estate may be less than the<br />

corresponding Principal Amount Outstanding on the Notes together with accrued interest.<br />

There is often a delay between the compulsory purchase of a property and the payment of compensation,<br />

the length of which will largely depend upon the ability of the property owner and the entity acquiring the<br />

property to agree on the open market value. Should such a delay occur in the case of a Property, then, unless the<br />

Borrower has other funds available, an event of default under the Libra Whole Loan may occur. Following the<br />

payment of compensation, the Borrower will be required to prepay all or such part of the amounts due under the<br />

Credit Agreement equal to the compensation payment received, part of such prepayment being used by the<br />

Issuer to redeem the Notes (or part thereof).<br />

Limitations of Valuations: Valuation of the portfolio of Properties (the “Valuation Report”) was<br />

performed by the Valuers based in part on physical inspection of a sample number of 50 Properties and an<br />

external inspection of 187 Properties. The Value (as defined herein) of the Properties as a portfolio as at the<br />

date of the Valuation Report was £1,338,341,000. The values set forth in this Offering Circular for the<br />

Properties are all based upon the portfolio Value of the Properties. Values for each Property and the analysis<br />

contained herein, were derived by the Loan Arranger from the individual value attributed to each Property by<br />

the Valuer in the Valuation Report in line with the Valuer’s methodology without reference to the Valuer, and<br />

therefore, there can be no assurance that the same value would have been assigned by valuers for that individual<br />

property outside the portfolio. (See also “General Information—paragraph 10(a)” below). In general,<br />

valuations represent the analysis and opinion of qualified valuers and are not guarantees of present or future<br />

value. One valuer may reach a different conclusion than the conclusion that would be reached if a different<br />

valuer were appraising such property. Moreover, valuations seek to establish the amount a typically motivated<br />

buyer would pay a typically motivated seller and, in certain cases, may have taken into consideration the<br />

purchase price paid by the borrower. However, there can be no assurance that the market value of the Properties<br />

will continue to equal or exceed such valuation. As the market value of the Properties fluctuates, there can be<br />

no assurance that the market value of the Properties will be equal to or greater than the unpaid principal and<br />

accrued interest and any other amounts due under the Credit Agreement. If any Property is sold following an<br />

event of default under the Libra Whole Loan, there can be no assurance that the net proceeds of such sale will be<br />

sufficient to pay in full all amounts due under the Credit Agreement. In particular, it should be noted that the<br />

Properties are specialised property assets for which no ready market may exist.<br />

Insurance: The Property Owners have covenanted in the Credit Agreement that they will insure the<br />

Properties and plant and machinery thereon on a full reinstatement basis, including loss of rent insurance. The<br />

Property Owners have also covenanted that loss of rent insurance will cover 36 months’ loss of rent. The<br />

Properties are or will be, prior to the Closing Date, insured under an “All Risks” insurance policy (subject to<br />

usual policy exclusions, terms and conditions but including, physical loss or damage as well as loss of rent<br />

insurance, gross earnings loss and extra expenses, being additional expenses incurred as a result of physical loss<br />

or damage and terrorism, based on, among other things, the property type, size and/or location).<br />

The Occupational Leases generally provide that, if the premises comprised in the tenancy are destroyed or<br />

damaged by an insured risk so as to render them unfit for use and occupation, the tenant will cease to be liable to<br />

pay rent otherwise due under the tenancy (or a proportionate part where the premises suffer only partial damage)<br />

56


until the premises are again rendered fit for use and occupation or (if earlier) the expiration of the period for<br />

which loss of rent has been insured.<br />

The insurance against loss of rental value will cover the loss of rent during the period of rent cessation up to<br />

a maximum of 36 months, although there could be administrative delay in obtaining payment by the insurers<br />

which could affect the ability of the Borrower, and accordingly also the Issuer, to meet its payment obligations<br />

during that period of delay.<br />

Certain types of risks and losses (such as losses resulting from war, terrorism, nuclear radiation, radioactive<br />

contamination and heaving or settling of structures) may be or become either uninsurable or not economically<br />

insurable or are not covered by the required insurance policies. Other risks might become uninsurable (or not<br />

economically insurable) in the future. If an uninsured or uninsurable loss were to occur, the Borrower might not<br />

have sufficient funds to repay in full all amounts owing under or in respect of the Credit Agreement.<br />

The Issuer’s beneficial interest in the Related Security (which includes the benefit of the buildings<br />

insurance policies) will form part of the Issuer Security charged to the Note Trustee for the benefit of, among<br />

others, the Noteholders under the Deed of Charge and Assignment. However, for the reasons described above<br />

(uninsurability), the ability of the Security Agent and/or the Note Trustee to make a claim under the insurance<br />

policies is not certain.<br />

The period of recovery in respect of loss of rental value under the insurance policy generally will be limited<br />

to a period comprising both (i) the period during which the damaged property could, with due diligence, have<br />

been rebuilt, repaired or replaced, and (ii) an additional period, being that required to restore the relevant<br />

Property Owner’s business to the condition that would otherwise have existed, such period commencing from<br />

the later of (a) the date on which the insurers’ liability would otherwise terminate and (b) the date on which the<br />

damaged property is actually rebuilt, repaired or replaced, such additional period being, in any event limited to<br />

one year from the later of (a) and (b). Although each relevant tenant will, again, be liable for the rent if the<br />

relevant lease subsists after that period, it is likely that a tenant so affected would exercise any rights it may have<br />

to terminate its lease (where such right is granted) if the premises are not reinstated in time. Thus, after the<br />

expiry of the period of coverage for loss of rent, the relevant Property Owner could cease to be entitled to both<br />

the rental income from the Property and further loss of rent insurance. In addition, if those circumstances<br />

applied, the proceeds of the insurance taken out by the relevant Property Owner (which will cover the costs of<br />

reinstatement) may not be sufficient to pay, in full, all the amounts due from the Borrower under the Credit<br />

Agreement and, hence, the Notes.<br />

The terms of some of the tenancies require the landlord to carry out the reinstatement of damaged premises<br />

following damage or destruction by an insured risk subject to any necessary planning permission or other<br />

consents being obtained, and to apply the proceeds of the buildings insurance (other than loss of rent insurance<br />

monies) for this purpose.<br />

There is no assurance that each Property Owner will maintain the insurance required under the Credit<br />

Agreement or that such insurance will be adequate. Moreover, if reconstruction or any major repairs are<br />

required, changes in laws or planning requirements may materially affect the Borrower’s or Property Owners’<br />

ability to effect any reconstruction or major repairs or may materially increase the costs of the reconstruction or<br />

repairs.<br />

As a result of any of these factors, the amount available to make payments on the Notes could be reduced.<br />

Litigation: There may be pending or threatened legal proceedings against the Borrower and/or its<br />

respective affiliates arising out of the ordinary business of the Borrower and/or its respective affiliates. To the<br />

knowledge of the Loan Arranger, as at the Closing Date, there is no material litigation pending or threatened<br />

against any Property Owner in respect of the Properties.<br />

Other Indebtedness, Liabilities and Financing: The existence of indebtedness incurred by the Borrower<br />

other than the Libra Whole Loan could adversely affect the financial viability of the Borrower. Additional debt<br />

increases the likelihood that the Borrower would lack the resources to perform on both the Libra Whole Loan<br />

and such additional debt. In addition, the existence of any actual or contingent liabilities of the Borrower may<br />

result in the insolvency or (if applicable) administration of a Borrower which may lead to an unanticipated<br />

default under the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

57


The documentation relating to the Libra Loan, the Libra Whole Loan, the PIK Facility Loan and the Related<br />

Security (the “Loan Documents”) provides limitations on the right of the Borrower to incur additional debt, on<br />

either a secured or unsecured basis, without the consent of the lenders. However, the Loan Documents only<br />

permit these entities to incur indebtedness to the Shareholder or another Obligor on a subordinated basis.<br />

The components of the Libra Whole Loan are (i) the Libra Loan, which is the Senior Tranche; and (ii) the<br />

following subordinate tranches, each of which is subordinate to the Libra Loan, and to those preceding it: the<br />

“B0-1 Loan”, the “B0-2 Loan”, the “B1 Loan”, the “B2 Loan”, the “B3 Loan” and the “B4 Loan”, each of the<br />

aforementioned tranches, other than the Libra Loan, a “B Loan” or a “Subordinate Tranche” and, collectively,<br />

the “Subordinate Debt”) and each of which will not be held by the Issuer, but will instead be held by other<br />

lenders (each, a “Subordinate Lender” and collectively, the “Subordinate Lenders”). On or prior to the<br />

Closing Date, an intercreditor deed (the “Senior Intercreditor Deed”) will have been entered into in relation to<br />

the Libra Whole Loan between the Security Agent, the Loan Seller, the Swap Provider and the related lenders of<br />

the Subordinate Debt.<br />

Pursuant to the Senior Intercreditor Deed, interest will be paid on the Libra Loan prior to interest being paid<br />

on the related Subordinate Debt. For as long as a Material Event of Default is continuing with respect to the<br />

Libra Whole Loan and the relevant Subordinate Lender is not curing the relevant event of default, no payments<br />

will be made on the related Subordinate Debt until all amounts outstanding on the Libra Loan have been paid in<br />

full. With respect to payments of principal on the Libra Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence of a Material<br />

Event of Default, under the Senior Intercreditor Deed, principal due and payable in respect of the Libra Whole<br />

Loan will be allocated among the lenders in the manner set forth under “The Libra Loan and Properties—<br />

Intercreditor Deeds” below.<br />

Under the Senior Intercreditor Deed, the Subordinate Lenders have certain approval and other rights with<br />

respect to the Libra Whole Loan and related Property and the lenders of the Subordinate Debt have certain<br />

consultation rights with respect to the same. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Senior Intercreditor Deed,<br />

a Subordinate Lender will have the right to cure a financial covenant default or non-payment by the Borrower<br />

under the Libra Whole Loan within 28 days of notification of the non-payment. While a Subordinate Lender is<br />

exercising or is capable of exercising any of its cure rights in relation to the Libra Whole Loan, no enforcement<br />

action may be taken in relation to the Libra Whole Loan and the Libra Whole Loan will not become specially<br />

serviced. Accordingly, a delay in enforcement due to the cure rights of the relevant Subordinate Lender, could<br />

result in a decline in value of the related Property and, possibly, a loss with regard to the Notes.<br />

The lenders under the Libra Whole Loan have agreed not to make certain amendments to any of the related<br />

loan documents which would have certain specified consequences. Therefore, any such modifications which are<br />

required in connection with the servicing of the Libra Whole Loan will require the consent of the Issuer and the<br />

Subordinate Lender. However, there is no restriction imposed upon the Servicer or Special Servicer, as<br />

applicable, from taking any action to enforce the rights of the lenders under the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

The parent company of the Borrower (the “Shareholder”) is the borrower under a separate, subordinated<br />

£70,000,000 loan (the “PIK Facility Loan”). The PIK Facility Loan is not held by the Issuer and will instead<br />

be held by third parties. The PIK Facility Loan is secured by a first fixed charge over the shares of the<br />

Borrower, and is subordinated pursuant to a guarantee and subordination deed. The guarantee under the<br />

guarantee and subordination deed is secured by the same security as that for the Libra Whole Loan, and each<br />

Guarantor also guarantees the Senior Debt (the “Guarantee and Subordination Deed”). See “The Libra Loan<br />

and Properties—PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed”.<br />

An intercreditor deed (the “PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed”) has been entered into in relation to the Libra<br />

Whole Loan and the PIK Facility Loan between the lenders of the Libra Whole Loan and the PIK Facility Loan.<br />

The PIK Facility Loan is secured by a first fixed charge over the shares of the Borrower. Pursuant to the terms<br />

of the PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed, the PIK Facility Lender will be entitled to enforce against such security,<br />

upon the circumstances described under “The Libra Loan and Properties—PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed”<br />

below.<br />

Details of the PIK Facility Loan are as follows:<br />

Cut-Off Date<br />

Principal Balance Maturity Date<br />

£70,000,000 15 January 2009 (1)<br />

(1) Assumes that the Borrower does not exercise the one-year extension option under the PIK Facility Loan and the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

58


Pursuant to the Guarantee and Subordination Deed, the PIK Facility Loan is subordinated in priority of<br />

payment to the Libra Whole Loan. Interest and principal on the PIK Facility Loan will be paid only after all<br />

amounts due to the lenders under the Libra Whole Loan have been paid. The PIK Facility Loan will become<br />

due when all amounts due under the Libra Whole Loan have been discharged.<br />

Under the PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed, the PIK Facility Lender has the right to approve certain<br />

modifications and waivers relating to the Libra Whole Loan, provided that no such right of approval can prevent<br />

the Libra Whole Loan Lender from making any such modification or waiver in connection with a work-out of<br />

such loan. In addition, the PIK Facility Lender will have the right to make certain cure payments and to acquire<br />

the Libra Whole Loan for a specified amount. While a PIK Facility Lender is exercising or is capable of<br />

exercising any of its cure rights in relation to the Libra Whole Loan, no enforcement action may be taken in<br />

relation to the Libra Whole Loan and the Libra Whole Loan will not become specially serviced. See “The Libra<br />

Loan and Properties—PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed” below for further details.<br />

The lenders under the PIK Facility Loan will, after a specified period, have the ability to direct an<br />

enforcement of the PIK Facility Loan.<br />

For more detail in relation to all of the aforementioned, see “The Libra Loan and Properties—Intercreditor<br />

Deeds”.<br />

Limitations of Representations and Warranties Delivered by the Loan Arranger: Neither the Issuer nor the<br />

Note Trustee has undertaken or will undertake any investigations, searches or other actions as to the Borrower’s<br />

status, and each will rely instead solely on the warranties given by the Loan Arranger in respect of such matters<br />

in the Loan Sale Agreement (see further “The Libra Loan and Properties—Loan Sale Agreement—<br />

Representations and Warranties”). The sole remedy against the Loan Arranger available to each of the Issuer<br />

and the Note Trustee in respect of any breach of warranty relating to the Libra Loan originated by the Original<br />

Lender with the assistance of the Loan Arranger and the Related Security if the breach is material and is not<br />

capable of remedy (or is capable of remedy and is not remedied within the specified time) shall be to require the<br />

Loan Arranger to repurchase the Libra Loan together with any Related Security; provided that this shall not<br />

limit any other remedies available to the Issuer and/or the Note Trustee if the Loan Arranger fails to repurchase<br />

the Libra Loan and its Related Security when obliged to do so.<br />

Non-Resident Borrower: The Borrower is incorporated in the Cayman Islands.<br />

With respect to a Borrower incorporated abroad, there is the risk that (a) third party creditors may<br />

commence insolvency proceedings against it in its jurisdiction of incorporation; and (b) an English court might<br />

decline jurisdiction if the relevant Security Agent were to seek to commence insolvency proceedings in<br />

England.<br />

In relation to (b) of the above paragraph, certain Property Owners may be incorporated in jurisdictions other<br />

than those in which the relevant Properties are located, or under whose laws the related security document has<br />

been executed. With respect to these Property Owners, there is a risk that such multiple jurisdictions might<br />

cause additional delays upon enforcement of any such security. If the “centre of main interests” of the<br />

Borrower, for the purposes of Council Regulation (EC) No. 1346/2000 of 29 May 2000 (the “EC Insolvency<br />

Regulation”) is in its jurisdiction of incorporation, the rules set out in the EC Insolvency Regulation will not<br />

apply to the Borrower (as the EC Insolvency Regulation only applies where the centre of main interests of the<br />

company is in the <strong>Europe</strong>an Union). The location of the centre of main interests will be a question of fact, but<br />

depends on where the company administers its interests on a permanent basis in a manner ascertainable by third<br />

parties rather than merely on the location of assets. If the EC Insolvency Regulation does not apply, the English<br />

court would apply its common law rules (outside the scope of such <strong>Europe</strong>an legislation) for dealing with such<br />

cross-border issues. The presence of assets in England is usually considered sufficient for the English court to<br />

exercise its discretion in relation to accepting jurisdiction to commence insolvency proceedings but this would<br />

depend on the facts at the time (including whether insolvency proceedings in the jurisdiction of incorporation<br />

had been commenced). If the English court were to commence insolvency proceedings, the English court is<br />

likely to consider its own proceedings as ancillary to any proceedings that have been commenced in the<br />

jurisdiction of incorporation.<br />

Insolvency Regimes Differ: A borrower which is incorporated or established in jurisdictions other than<br />

England and Wales may be subject to insolvency regimes that differ from those of England and Wales or<br />

Scotland. In cases where the Borrower is based in a foreign jurisdiction, enforcement of security may be<br />

restricted by local insolvency law, including, for example, any statutory moratorium periods during which<br />

59


enforcement of security interests is prevented. Four of the Property Owners, which own Overriding Leases in<br />

Properties representing 79.6 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the<br />

aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount, are incorporated in Jersey and three of the Property Owners,<br />

two of which own the shares in the four Jersey incorporated Property Owners and one of which owns an<br />

Overriding Lease of a freehold Property located in Northern Ireland, are incorporated in the Cayman Islands.<br />

Under Article 49(1) of the Bankruptcy (Désastre) (Jersey) Law 1990, as amended, the Royal Court of Jersey<br />

may, to the extent it thinks fit, assist the courts of a relevant country or territory in all matters relating to the<br />

insolvency of a person, and when doing so may have regard to the extent it considers appropriate to the<br />

provisions for the time being of any model law on cross border insolvency prepared by the United Nations<br />

Commission on International Trade Law. The definition of a “relevant country or territory” is, under Article<br />

49(4) of the Bankruptcy (Désastre) (Jersey) Law 1990, as amended, a country or territory prescribed by the<br />

Minister for Economic Development. Pursuant to the Bankruptcy (Désastre) (Jersey) Order 2006, the United<br />

Kingdom was included as one of the prescribed countries and territories for the purpose of Article 49(4) of the<br />

Bankruptcy (Désastre) (Jersey) Law 1990, as amended. Accordingly the Royal Court of Jersey in relation to<br />

insolvency law in Jersey may assist the courts of the United Kingdom having a corresponding jurisdiction.<br />

Although in certain cases the Borrower and Property Owners are special purpose vehicles which are restricted<br />

from entering into other transactions and are, therefore, unlikely to be subject to insolvency proceedings<br />

instituted by third parties, in one case the relevant Property Owner, Propco 10, is not a special purpose vehicle.<br />

England, Scotland and Northern Ireland—Enforcement of Security Upon the Administration, Insolvency or<br />

Bankruptcy of Charging Entity: There are three principal methods of enforcing English law non-possessory<br />

security: foreclosure, orders of sale and receivership. The same methods of enforcement are available in<br />

relation to Scottish non-possessory security also, although their application varies considerably in detail. The<br />

remedy of foreclosure is not available in Northern Ireland. The other two methods are available in relation to<br />

Northern <strong>Irish</strong> non-possessory security although, as in Scotland, their application varies in the detail.<br />

Enforcement during English Administration Proceedings of Entity. The effect of the statutory moratorium<br />

in an English administration proceeding of a company from the lender’s perspective is that he is unable to<br />

enforce the security granted by such entity for the duration of the administration without the leave of the court or<br />

the consent of the administrator. This might compromise the interests of the secured creditor. For example, an<br />

administrator may decide that it is in the best interests of the creditors of the borrower to delay the sale of the<br />

secured assets. Also, the administrator will have the ability to sell property subject to security in favour of the<br />

creditors, but must account to the creditor for the proceeds. Therefore, in the event that the Borrower were to<br />

become the subject of an English administration proceeding, there could be a delay in enforcement of security<br />

which may in turn lead to a reduction in value of the realisation amount paid over to a secured creditor.<br />

Enforcement of Security during English Liquidation of Entity. When a winding up order has been made by<br />

a court in respect of an English company or a provisional liquidator has been appointed, no action or proceeding<br />

shall be proceeded with or commenced against the company or its property, except with leave of the court and<br />

subject to such terms as the court may impose. Specific court orders can be obtained to stay any actions or<br />

proceedings brought against the English company and its property. However, the rights of secured creditors are<br />

unaffected and they may still enforce their security rights, for example by the appointment of a receiver over<br />

specific property or assets of the company. There can, however, be no assurance that no delay will arise in<br />

connection with the appointment of a receiver, which could have a negative effect on the amount realised by<br />

enforcement of the security.<br />

Enforcement of Security in England Upon Foreign Insolvency. The English courts may elect to exercise<br />

the powers and discretions they have with respect to an insolvent company incorporated in England and Wales<br />

in respect of a foreign company, provided that they receive a request for assistance from the courts of a<br />

“relevant country or territory” having jurisdiction over the foreign company. A “relevant country or territory”<br />

includes Jersey and the Cayman Islands.<br />

The English courts also have, in certain circumstances, jurisdiction to make a winding-up order in respect of<br />

an insolvent foreign company that does not have its “centre of main interests” in the <strong>Europe</strong>an Union (so that the<br />

Regulation (as defined below) does not apply). For example, the English courts may make a winding-up order<br />

in respect of an insolvent “unregistered company”, being a company not incorporated in England and Wales.<br />

By contrast, save in limited circumstances, the English courts do not have jurisdiction to make an<br />

administration order in respect of an insolvent foreign company that does not have its “centre of main interests”<br />

in the <strong>Europe</strong>an Union. Also, such a company may not be subject to a company voluntary arrangement.<br />

60


The enforcement of security in Scotland and Northern Ireland upon the administration or liquidation of a<br />

charging entity or in respect of an insolvent foreign company is closely similar to the position in England<br />

described above.<br />

Enterprise Act 2002: By an order made by the Under-Secretary of State for Small Business and Enterprise<br />

on 8 August 2003, the provisions of the Enterprise Act 2002 (the “Enterprise Act”) amending certain corporate<br />

insolvency provisions of the Insolvency Act 1986 came into force on 15 September 2003. As a result of the<br />

amendments made by the Enterprise Act, the holder of a qualifying floating charge created on or after 15<br />

September 2003 with respect to English or Scots law security will be prohibited from appointing an<br />

administrative receiver to a company unless the floating charge falls within one of the exceptions set out in<br />

sections 72A to 72G of the Insolvency Act (the “exceptions”) and consequently the ability to prevent the<br />

appointment of an administrator to such company will be lost. The Enterprise Act will apply to any insolvency<br />

proceedings brought in England or Scotland, including against non-English or Scottish corporate entities.<br />

The floating charges granted by the Borrower, although granted after 15 September 2003 should be<br />

qualifying floating charges for the purposes of the Enterprise Act and have the benefit of one of the exceptions.<br />

Therefore, an administrative receiver could be appointed to the Borrower, and the Note Trustee could prevent<br />

the appointment of an administrator in respect of the Borrower. See further “—Enforcement; Receivers under<br />

English Law” above.<br />

In addition to the introduction of a prohibition on the appointment of an administrative receiver as set out<br />

above, section 176A of the Insolvency Act provides that any receiver (including an administrative receiver),<br />

liquidator or administrator of a company is required to make a “prescribed part” of the company’s “net<br />

property” available for the satisfaction of unsecured debts in priority to the claims of the floating charge holder.<br />

The company’s “net property” is defined as the amount of the chargor’s property which would be available for<br />

satisfaction of debts due to the holder(s) of any debentures secured by a floating charge and so refers to any<br />

floating charge realisations less any amounts payable to the preferential creditors or in respect of the expenses of<br />

the liquidation or administration. The “prescribed part” is defined in the Insolvency Act 1986 (Prescribed Part)<br />

Order 2003 (SI 2003/2097) to be an amount equal to 50 per cent. of the first £10,000 of floating charge<br />

realisations plus 20 per cent. of the floating charge realisations thereafter, provided that such amount may not<br />

exceed £600,000.<br />

This obligation does not apply if the net property is less than a prescribed minimum and the relevant<br />

officeholder is of the view that the cost of making a distribution to unsecured creditors would be<br />

disproportionate to the benefits. The relevant officeholder may also apply to court for an order that the<br />

provisions of section 176A of the Insolvency Act should not apply on the basis that the cost of making a<br />

distribution would be disproportionate to the benefits.<br />

Floating charge realisations upon the enforcement of any security granted may be reduced by the operation<br />

of these “ring fencing” provisions up to a maximum of £600,000.<br />

So far as Northern Ireland law is concerned, by an order made by the Department of Enterprise, Trade and<br />

Investment on 2 February 2006, the provisions of the Insolvency (Northern Ireland) Order 2005 (the<br />

“Insolvency Order”) amending certain corporate insolvency provisions of the Insolvency (Northern Ireland)<br />

Order 1989 (“the 1989 Order”) came into force on 27 March 2006. As a result of the amendments made by the<br />

Insolvency Order, the holder of a qualifying floating charge created on or after 27 March 2006 with respect to<br />

Northern Ireland security will be prohibited from appointing an administrative receiver to a company unless the<br />

floating charge falls within one of the exceptions set out in Articles 59.B to 59.I of the 1989 Order (as amended<br />

by the Insolvency Order) (also hereinafter referred to as the “exceptions”) and consequently the ability to<br />

prevent the appointment of an administrator to such company will be lost.<br />

Insolvency Act 2000: The Insolvency Act 2000 (the “IA 2000”) contains certain provisions (which came<br />

into effect on 1 January 2003) which amend the Insolvency Act 1986 so as to allow “small companies”, as part<br />

of the company voluntary arrangement procedure, to seek court protection from their creditors by way of a<br />

moratorium for a period of up to 28 days, with the option for creditors to extend this protection for up to a<br />

further two months (although the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry may, by secondary legislation,<br />

extend or decrease the duration of each period).<br />

The effect of a moratorium is that no winding up or administration procedures may be commenced in<br />

relation to that company, any security created by that company over its property cannot be enforced (except with<br />

the leave of the court), no administrative receiver may be appointed pursuant to any security and no other legal<br />

61


process can be taken in relation to that company during such period (except with the leave of the court). In<br />

addition, if the holder of security (the “chargee”) created by the company consents or if the court gives leave,<br />

the company may dispose of the secured property as if it were not subject to the security. Where the property in<br />

question is subject to a floating charge, the chargee will have the same priority in respect of any property of the<br />

company directly or indirectly representing the property disposed of as he would have had in respect of the<br />

property subject to the floating charge. Where the security in question is other than a floating charge, it shall be<br />

a condition of the chargee’s consent or leave of the court that the net proceeds of the disposal shall be applied<br />

towards discharging the sums secured by the security.<br />

The IA 2000 defines “small company” by reference to certain tests contained in section 247(3) of the<br />

Companies Act 1985, relating to a company’s balance sheet total, turnover and average number of employees.<br />

The position as to whether or not a company is a “small company” may change from financial period to<br />

financial period, depending on its financial position and average number of employees during that particular<br />

period. The Secretary of State for Trade and Industry may also modify the qualifications for eligibility of a<br />

company for a moratorium and may also modify the present definition of a “small company”. Accordingly,<br />

certain of the Borrower may currently come within the ambit of the “small companies” provisions, such that<br />

they may (subject to the exemptions referred to below) be eligible to seek protection from their creditors, in<br />

advance of a company voluntary arrangement.<br />

However, pursuant to regulations made by the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry, which came into<br />

effect at the same time as the small companies provisions of the IA 2000, companies which are party to a capital<br />

market arrangement, under which a party has incurred, or where the agreement was entered into expected to<br />

incur, a debt of at least £10 million and which involves the issue of a capital market investment, are (among<br />

other categories of exempted company) excluded from being eligible for the moratorium. The definitions of<br />

“capital market arrangement” and “capital market investment” are broad and are such that, in general terms, any<br />

company which is a party to an arrangement which involves at least £10 million of debt, the granting of security<br />

to a trustee, and the issue of a rated, listed or traded debt instrument, is ineligible to seek the benefit of the small<br />

companies protection in any event. As with the small companies “eligibility qualifications”, the criteria for<br />

exemption as a capital market arrangement may be modified by the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry<br />

from time to time.<br />

With regard to security granted by the Borrower, there may be a possibility it falls within the provisions of<br />

the IA 2000 or that it may in the future fall within its provisions for the purpose of being eligible to seek court<br />

protection from their creditors under the small company moratorium provisions. As regards the Borrower,<br />

which is incorporated in a jurisdiction other than England and Wales, there may also be a risk that the Borrower<br />

could claim to be subject to the provisions of the IA 2000. In the event that it meets the eligibility criteria of<br />

being a small company for the purposes of the IA 2000 and to the extent that it has the United Kingdom as its<br />

centre of main interests for the purposes of any collective proceedings under the EC Insolvency Regulation<br />

(which includes voluntary arrangements under insolvency legislation) or, in certain limited circumstances, an<br />

establishment in the UK for the purposes of the EC Insolvency Regulation, then it would appear that it would be<br />

able to claim the benefit of the relevant moratorium provisions contained in the IA 2000. It will also be possible<br />

for the Borrower to obtain the benefit of a small company moratorium if a request by the Court of a relevant<br />

country or territory for the imposition of such a moratorium is made pursuant to Section 426 of the Insolvency<br />

Act.<br />

Application of Enterprise Act 2002 and Insolvency Act 2000 in Northern Ireland: Neither the Enterprise<br />

Act nor the IA2000 apply in Northern Ireland, however, similar restrictions on the appointment of an<br />

administrative receiver by the holder of a floating charge and moratoriums for small companies apply under the<br />

Insolvency (Northern Ireland) Order 2005.<br />

Notes Related Risks<br />

<strong>Limited</strong> Recourse: On enforcement of the security of the Notes, the Note Trustee and the Noteholders will<br />

only have recourse to the Libra Loan and any Related Security and the remaining Issuer Security. In the event<br />

that the proceeds of such enforcement are insufficient (after payment of all other claims ranking higher in<br />

priority to or pari passu with amounts due under the Notes), then the Issuer’s obligation to pay such amounts<br />

will cease and the Noteholders will have no further claim against the Issuer in respect of such unpaid amounts,<br />

in which event the Issuer’s liability to discharge the then unpaid amounts will be extinguished. Enforcement of<br />

the security created pursuant to the Deed of Charge and Assignment is, therefore, the only remedy available for<br />

the purpose of recovering amounts owed in respect of the Notes.<br />

62


The Notes and interest thereon will not be obligations or responsibilities of any person other than the Issuer.<br />

In particular, the Notes will not be obligations or responsibilities of, or be guaranteed by, the Loan Seller or the<br />

Loan Arranger (outside of their respective obligations under the Loan Sale Agreement) or any associated body<br />

of either of the Loan Seller or the Loan Arranger, or of or by the Managers, the Security Agent, the Servicer, the<br />

Special Servicer, the Cash Manager, the Note Trustee, the Corporate Services Provider, the Paying Agents, the<br />

Agent Bank, the Advance Provider, the Backup Advance Provider, the Registrar, the Swap Provider, the<br />

Common Depository, the Operating Bank or the shareholders of the Issuer or any company in the same group of<br />

companies as the Managers, the Loan Seller, the Loan Arranger, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Cash<br />

Manager, the Note Trustee, the Security Agent, the Corporate Services Provider, the Paying Agents, the Agent<br />

Bank, the Advance Provider, the Backup Advance Provider, the Registrar, the Swap Provider, the Common<br />

Depository, the Operating Bank or the shareholders of the Issuer and none of such persons accepts any liability<br />

whatsoever in respect of any failure by the Issuer to make payment of any amount due on the Notes.<br />

Examiners, Preferred Creditors under <strong>Irish</strong> Law and Floating Charges: The Issuer has its registered office<br />

in Ireland. As a result there is a rebuttable presumption that its centre of main interest is in Ireland and<br />

consequently it is likely that any insolvency proceedings applicable to it would be governed by <strong>Irish</strong> law.<br />

An examiner may be appointed to an <strong>Irish</strong> company in circumstances where it is unable, or likely to be<br />

unable, to pay its debts. One of the effects of such an appointment is that during the period of appointment,<br />

there is a prohibition on the taking of enforcement action by any creditors of the company.<br />

In an insolvency of the Issuer, the claims of certain preferential creditors (including the Revenue<br />

Commissioners of Ireland for certain unpaid taxes) will rank in priority to claims of unsecured creditors and<br />

claims secured by floating charges. In addition, the claims of creditors holding fixed charges may rank behind<br />

“super” preferential creditors (including expenses of any examiner appointed and certain capital gains tax<br />

liabilities). As discussed in more detail below, holders of fixed charges over book debts may be required by the<br />

Revenue Commissioners of Ireland to pay amounts received by the holder in settlement of the Issuer’s tax<br />

liability.<br />

In certain circumstances, a charge which purports to be taken as a fixed charge may take effect as a floating<br />

charge. Under <strong>Irish</strong> law, for a charge to be characterised as a fixed charge, the charge holder is required to<br />

exercise the requisite level of control over the assets purported to be charged and the proceeds of such assets<br />

including any bank account into which such proceeds are paid. Where such requisite level of control cannot be<br />

demonstrated, there is a risk that the relevant fixed charge could take effect as a floating charge. The claims of<br />

creditors holding floating charges rank behind the claims of creditors holding fixed charges and certain<br />

additional preferential creditors.<br />

If the Issuer becomes subject to an insolvency proceeding and the Issuer has obligations to creditors that are<br />

treated under <strong>Irish</strong> law as creditors that are senior relative to the Noteholders, the Noteholders may suffer losses<br />

as a result of their subordinated status during such insolvency proceeding.<br />

The holder of a fixed security over book debts (which would include the Libra Loan acquired by the Issuer)<br />

or a company resident in Ireland for the purposes of <strong>Irish</strong> tax such as the Issuer may be required by notice from<br />

the Revenue Commissioners of Ireland (the “Revenue Commissioners”) to pay to them sums equivalent to<br />

those which the holder thereafter receives in payment of debts due to it by the relevant company. Where the<br />

holder of the security has informed the Revenue Commissioners of the creation of the security within 21 days of<br />

its creation, the holder’s liability is limited to the amount of certain outstanding <strong>Irish</strong> tax liabilities of the<br />

company (including liabilities in respect of value added tax) arising after the issue to the holder of a notice from<br />

the Revenue Commissioners. The Revenue Commissioners may also attach any debt due to a company resident<br />

in Ireland for the purposes of <strong>Irish</strong> tax by another person in order to discharge any liabilities of the company in<br />

respect of outstanding tax whether the liabilities are due on its own account or as an agent or trustee. The scope<br />

of this right of the Revenue Commissioners has not yet been considered by the <strong>Irish</strong> courts but it may override<br />

the rights of holders of security (whether fixed or floating) over the debt in question. In relation to the disposal<br />

of assets of a company resident in Ireland for the purposes of <strong>Irish</strong> tax which are subject to security, a person<br />

entitled to the benefit of the security may be liable for tax in relation to any capital gains made by the company<br />

on a disposal of those assets on exercise of the security. In certain circumstances, a charge which purports to<br />

take effect as a fixed charge may take effect as a floating charge.<br />

Prepayment Risk: The Credit Agreement permits the Borrower to prepay the whole or any part of the Libra<br />

Whole Loan. The yield to maturity on the Notes will be highly sensitive to the rate and timing of principal<br />

payments and collections (including by reason of a voluntary or involuntary prepayment, or a default and<br />

63


liquidation) on the Libra Loan as well as the allocation, if any, of NAI Amounts. Investors in the Notes should<br />

fully consider the associated risks, including the risk that a faster than anticipated rate of principal payments and<br />

collections could result in a lower than expected yield.<br />

Effects of Borrower Default: The rate and timing of delinquencies or defaults on the Libra Whole Loan will<br />

affect the aggregate amount of distributions on the Notes, their yield to maturity, the rate of principal payments<br />

and their weighted average life.<br />

The only source of payment for the Notes will be the Libra Loan and the amounts available from time to<br />

time made as Advances under the Servicing Agreement and the Swap Transactions. Any losses on the Libra<br />

Loan will be allocated to the holders of the Notes, as described under “—Subordination” below.<br />

If anticipated yields are calculated based on assumed rates of default and losses that are lower than the<br />

default rate and losses actually experienced and such losses are allocable to the Notes, the actual yield to<br />

maturity will be lower than the assumed yield. Under certain extreme scenarios, such yield could be negative.<br />

In general, the earlier a loss borne by the Notes occurs, the greater the effect on the related yield to maturity.<br />

Additionally, delinquencies and defaults on the Libra Loan may significantly delay the receipt of<br />

distributions on the Notes, unless P&I Advances are made to cover delinquent payments or the subordination of<br />

another class of Notes fully offsets the effects of any such delinquency or default.<br />

Subordination: On each Payment Date, distributions in respect of interest and principal will be made to<br />

Noteholders in the manner and in the priorities set forth under “The Structure of the Accounts—The Issuer’s<br />

Accounts—Priority of Payments” below. As a result of such priorities, any losses on the Libra Loan will be<br />

borne, first, by the Class E Notes, second, by the Class D Notes, third, by the Class C Notes, fourth, by the Class<br />

B Notes and fifth, pari passu by the Class A Notes and the Class X Notes (with regard to interest only). As a<br />

result of subordination and other risks of the Properties, under certain circumstances investors in one or more<br />

Classes of Notes may not recover their initial investment.<br />

The Advance Provider and the Backup Advance Provider, as applicable, will be entitled to receive interest<br />

on unreimbursed servicing expenses. Such interest will accrue from (and include) the date on which such<br />

Advance is made or the expense incurred to (but excluding) the date on which such amounts are repaid. See<br />

“Servicing—Advancing”.<br />

The right of the Advance Provider and the Backup Advance Provider, as applicable, to receive repayments<br />

of Advances (including interest thereon) are senior to the rights of Noteholders to receive amounts in respect of<br />

the Notes and, consequently, will cause a reduction in funds available to pay amounts due under the Notes<br />

which may result in losses being allocated to the Notes which would not otherwise have resulted, absent the<br />

relevant Advance.<br />

In addition, the rights of the Noteholders to receive amounts in respect of the Notes are subordinate in<br />

priority to the payment of certain fees, expenses and other amounts in the manner and the priorities described<br />

under “The Structure of the Accounts—The Issuer’s Accounts—Payment of Expenses” and “—Priority of<br />

Payments” below, which may result in losses being allocated to the Notes which would not otherwise have<br />

resulted absent such fees, expenses or other senior amounts.<br />

In addition, Appraisal Reductions will reduce the amount of P&I Advances by the Advance Provider or the<br />

Backup Advance Provider, as applicable, and may result in the reduction of the amount of interest distributable<br />

to one or more classes of Notes. See “Servicing—Appraisals and Valuations”.<br />

Security Granted by the Issuer—Enterprise Act 2002: The floating charge to be granted by the Issuer<br />

pursuant to the terms of the Deed of Charge and Assignment is a qualifying floating charge for the purposes of<br />

the Enterprise Act and will be entered into after 15 September 2003 and as such, unless excepted, the Note<br />

Trustee will be prevented from appointing an administrative receiver in respect of the Issuer. However, this<br />

qualifying floating charge will fall within the “capital market arrangement” exception to the prohibition on<br />

appointment of an administrative receiver and accordingly the Note Trustee will still be able to appoint an<br />

administrative receiver pursuant to the Deed of Charge and Assignment. See “—Loan Related Risks—<br />

Enterprise Act 2002” above for further information.<br />

Rights Available to Holders of Notes of Different Classes: In performing its duties as trustee for the<br />

Noteholders, the Note Trustee will not be entitled to consider solely the interest of the most senior class of<br />

Noteholders then outstanding but will need to have regard to the interests of all of the Noteholders. Where,<br />

64


however, there is a conflict between the interests of the holders of one class of Notes and the holders of another<br />

class of Notes, the Note Trustee will only have regard to interests of the holders of the Notes which rank in<br />

priority in the event of the security held by the Note Trustee being enforced.<br />

Ratings of Notes: The ratings assigned to the Notes by the Rating Agencies are based on the Libra Loan<br />

subject to any intercreditor agreements, the Related Security and the Properties and other relevant structural<br />

features of the transaction, including, among other things, the short term unsecured, unguaranteed and<br />

unsubordinated debt ratings of the Backup Advance Provider and the Swap Provider and reflect only the views<br />

of the Rating Agencies. A rating does not represent any assessment of the yield to maturity that a Noteholder<br />

may experience or the possibility that holders of the Notes may not recover their initial investments if<br />

unscheduled receipts of principal result from a prepayment, a default and acceleration or from the receipt of<br />

funds with respect to a compulsory purchase. The ratings address the timely payment of interest on each<br />

Payment Date and the ultimate repayment of principal on the Maturity Date. There is no assurance that any<br />

such ratings will continue for any period of time or that they will not be reviewed, revised, suspended or<br />

withdrawn entirely by any or all of the Rating Agencies as a result of changes in or unavailability of information<br />

or if, in the judgment of the Rating Agencies, circumstances so warrant. A downgrade, withdrawal or<br />

qualification of any of the ratings of the parties mentioned above may impact upon the ratings of the Notes.<br />

Credit rating agencies other than the Rating Agencies could seek to rate the Notes and without having been<br />

requested to do so by the Issuer if such “unsolicited ratings” are lower than the comparable ratings assigned to<br />

the Notes by the Rating Agencies, those shadow ratings could have an adverse effect on the value of the Notes.<br />

For the avoidance of doubt and unless the context otherwise requires, any references to “ratings” or “rating” in<br />

this Offering Circular are to ratings assigned by the specified Rating Agencies only. Future events also,<br />

including but not limited to events affecting the Advance Provider or the Backup Advance Provider and<br />

circumstances relating to the Property and/or the property market generally, could have an adverse impact on the<br />

rating of the Notes. A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to<br />

revision, suspension or withdrawal at any time by the assigning Rating Agency. Furthermore, there can be no<br />

assurance that the Rating Agencies will take the same view as each other, which may affect the Borrower’s<br />

ability to adapt the structure of the transaction to changes in the market over the long term.<br />

Rating Agencies’ Confirmation: Where it is necessary for the Note Trustee to determine, in its own opinion,<br />

for the purposes of exercising any right, power, trust, authority, duty or discretion under or in relation to the<br />

Notes, the Conditions or any of the Transaction Documents, whether or not such exercise will be materially<br />

prejudicial to the interests of the Noteholders or any class of Noteholders, the Note Trustee shall be entitled, in<br />

making such a determination, to take into account among any other things it may, in its absolute discretion,<br />

consider necessary and/or appropriate, any confirmation by a Rating Agency (if available) that the then current<br />

ratings of the Notes or, as the case may be, the Notes of such class will not be downgraded, withdrawn or<br />

qualified, and that, where any original rating of the Notes or, as the case may be, the Notes of such class has<br />

been and continues to be downgraded, restoration of such original rating would not be prevented, as a result of<br />

such exercise. For the avoidance of doubt, such rating confirmation shall not be construed to mean that any<br />

such exercise by the Note Trustee of any right, power, trust, authority, duty or discretion under or in relation to<br />

the Notes, the Conditions or any of the Transaction Documents is not materially prejudicial to the interest of<br />

holders of the Notes or, as the case may be, the Notes of the relevant class; and the non-receipt of such rating<br />

confirmation shall not be construed to mean that any such exercise by the Note Trustee as aforesaid is materially<br />

prejudicial to the interests of the holders of the Notes or, as the case may be, the Notes of the relevant class.<br />

The ratings assigned by Moody’s address the expected loss in proportion to the initial principal amount of<br />

each class of Notes posed to any Noteholder by the Maturity Date. The ratings by S&P and Fitch address: (a)<br />

the timely payment of interest on each Payment Date and (b) the ultimate repayment of principal on a Payment<br />

Date not later than the Maturity Date.<br />

No assurance can be given that the Rating Agencies will provide any such confirmation or that, depending<br />

on the timing of the delivery of the request and any information needed to be provided, it may be the case that<br />

the Rating Agencies cannot provide their confirmation in the time available and in either case, the Rating<br />

Agencies will not be responsible for the consequences thereof. However, if a confirmation is provided, it should<br />

be noted that a Rating Agency’s decision to reconfirm a particular rating may be made on the basis of a variety<br />

of factors. In particular, the Noteholders should be aware that the Rating Agencies owe no duties whatsoever to<br />

any parties to the transaction (including the Noteholders) in providing any confirmation of ratings. No<br />

assurance can be given that a requirement to seek ratings confirmation will not have a subsequent impact upon<br />

the business of the Borrower. In addition, it should be noted that any confirmation of ratings:<br />

65


(a) only addresses the effect of any relevant event, matter or circumstance on the current ratings assigned<br />

by the relevant Rating Agency to the Notes;<br />

(b) does not address whether any relevant event, matter or circumstance is permitted by the Relevant<br />

Documents; and<br />

(c) does not address whether any relevant event, matter or circumstance is in the best interests of, or<br />

prejudicial to, some or all of the Noteholders or other secured creditors.<br />

No assurance can be given that any such reconfirmation will not be given in circumstances where the<br />

relevant proposed matter would materially adversely affect the interests of Noteholders of a particular class.<br />

The Rating Agencies, in assigning credit ratings, do not comment upon the interests of the holders of<br />

securities (such as the Notes).<br />

Absence of Secondary Market; <strong>Limited</strong> Liquidity: Application has been made to the <strong>Irish</strong> Financial Services<br />

Regulations Authority, as competent authority under the Prospectus Directive, for the Prospectus to be<br />

approved. Application has been made to the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> for the Notes to be admitted to the Official<br />

List and to trading on its regulated market. There can be no assurance, however, that listing on the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong><br />

<strong>Exchange</strong> will be granted. Assuming it is, there can be no assurance that a secondary market in the Notes will<br />

develop or, if it does develop, that it will provide Noteholders with liquidity of investment, or that it will<br />

continue for the life of the Notes. Consequently, any purchaser of the Notes must be prepared to hold such<br />

Notes for an indefinite period of time or until final redemption or maturity of such Notes. Lack of liquidity<br />

could result in a significant reduction in the market value of the Notes.<br />

In addition, the market value of certain of the Notes may fluctuate with changes in prevailing rates of<br />

interest and the performance of the Libra Loan. Consequently, any sale of Notes by Noteholders in any<br />

secondary market which may develop may be at a discount to the original purchase price of those Notes.<br />

Related Parties May Purchase Notes: Related parties, including the Servicer, the Special Servicer or<br />

affiliates of the Borrower may purchase all or part of one or more classes of Notes. A purchase by the Servicer<br />

or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, could cause a conflict between such entity’s duties pursuant to the<br />

Servicing Agreement and its interest as a holder of a Note, especially to the extent that certain actions or events<br />

have a disproportionate effect on one or more classes of Notes. The Servicing Agreement provides that the<br />

Libra Loan is required to be administered in accordance with the Servicing Standard without regard to<br />

ownership of any Note by the Servicer, the Special Servicer or any affiliate thereof.<br />

Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees: In the event a Specially Serviced Loan becomes a Corrected Loan and<br />

certain other conditions are met, as described under “Servicing—Servicing Fee, Special Servicing Fee,<br />

Liquidation Fee and Workout Fee”, the Special Servicer will be entitled to a Workout Fee equal to 0.4000 per<br />

cent. with respect to the Libra Whole Loan (plus VAT, if applicable) of each payment of principal and interest<br />

(plus VAT, if applicable) for so long as the Libra Whole Loan remains a Corrected Loan. In addition, upon the<br />

sale of any Property following enforcement of the related Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer will be<br />

entitled to receive a Liquidation Fee equal to 0.4000 per cent. in respect of the Libra Whole Loan (plus VAT, if<br />

applicable) of the Liquidation Proceeds (plus VAT, if applicable). Because Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees<br />

are not recoverable from the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, payment of any such fees may reduce<br />

amounts payable to the Noteholders to the extent that they are not off-set by default interest payable on the Libra<br />

Loan.<br />

Risks Relating to the Introduction of International Financial Reporting Standards: The <strong>Irish</strong> tax position of<br />

the Issuer depends to a significant extent on the accounting treatments applicable to it. The accounts of the<br />

Issuer are required to comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) or with generally<br />

accepted accounting principles in Ireland (“<strong>Irish</strong> GAAP”) which has been substantially aligned with IFRS.<br />

Companies such as the Issuer might, under either IFRS or <strong>Irish</strong> GAAP, be forced to recognise in their accounts<br />

movements in the fair value of assets that could result in profits or losses for accounting purposes which bear<br />

little relationship to the company’s actual cash position. These movements in value would generally have been<br />

brought in to charge to tax (if not specifically relieved) as a company’s tax liability on such assets broadly<br />

follows the accounting treatment. However, the taxable profits of a qualifying company within the meaning of<br />

Section 110 of the Taxes Consolidation Act 1997 of Ireland, as amended (and it is expected that the Issuer will<br />

be such a qualifying company), are based on <strong>Irish</strong> GAAP as it existed at 31 December 2004. It is possible to<br />

elect out of this treatment but such an election, if made, is irrevocable. If such an election is made, then taxable<br />

66


profits or losses could arise in the Issuer as a result of the application of IFRS or current <strong>Irish</strong> GAAP that are not<br />

contemplated in the cashflows for the transaction and as such may have a negative effect on the Issuer and its<br />

ability to make payments to Noteholders. The Issuer has covenanted that, if its cashflows would thereby be<br />

affected adversely, no such election will be made.<br />

Withholding Tax Under the Notes: In the event any withholding or deduction for or on account of taxes is<br />

imposed on or is otherwise applicable to payments of interest or principal on the Notes to Noteholders the Issuer<br />

is not obliged to gross-up or otherwise compensate Noteholders for the lesser amounts the Noteholders will<br />

receive as a result of such withholding or deduction.<br />

<strong>Europe</strong>an Union Directive on Taxation of Savings Income: Under the EC Council Directive 2003/48/EC on<br />

the taxation of savings income, Member States are required to provide to the tax authorities of another Member<br />

State details of payments of interest (or similar income) paid by a person within its jurisdiction to an individual<br />

resident in that other member state (the member states constituting the <strong>Europe</strong>an Union, collectively the<br />

“Member States” and each a “Member State”). However, for a transitional period, Belgium, Luxembourg and<br />

Austria are instead required (unless during that period they elect otherwise) to operate a withholding system in<br />

relation to such payments (the ending of such transitional period being dependent upon the conclusion of certain<br />

other agreements relating to information exchange with certain other countries). A number of non-EU countries<br />

and territories including Switzerland have agreed to adopt similar measures (a withholding system in the case of<br />

Switzerland) with effect from the same date. If a payment were to be made or collected through a Member State<br />

which has opted for a withholding system and an amount of, or in respect of, tax were to be withheld from that<br />

payment, neither the relevant Issuer nor any Paying Agent nor any other person would be obliged to pay<br />

additional amounts with respect to any Note as a result of the imposition of such withholding tax. The Issuer is<br />

required to maintain a Paying Agent in a Member State that will not be obliged to withhold or deduct tax<br />

pursuant to this Directive.<br />

Introduction of the Euro: It is possible that, prior to the maturity of the Notes, the United Kingdom may<br />

become a participating member state in the <strong>Europe</strong>an Economic and Monetary Union and therefore the euro<br />

may become the lawful currency of the United Kingdom. In that event, all amounts payable in respect of the<br />

Notes denominated in sterling may become payable in euro and applicable provisions of law may require or<br />

allow the Issuer to redenominate each Class of sterling denominated Notes in euro and take additional measures<br />

in respect of such Notes. The introduction of the euro as the lawful currency of the United Kingdom may result<br />

in the disappearance of published or displayed rates for deposits in sterling used to determine the rates of<br />

interest on sterling denominated Notes, or changes in the way those rates are calculated, quoted, published or<br />

displayed. The introduction of the euro could also be accompanied by a volatile interest rate environment which<br />

could adversely affect Noteholders. It cannot be said with certainty what effect the adoption of the euro by the<br />

United Kingdom (if it occurs) would have on investors in the Notes.<br />

Implementation of the Basel II Framework: On 26 June 2004, the Basel Committee on Banking<br />

Supervision (the “Basel Committee”) published the text of a new capital accord under the title Basel II:<br />

International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards: a Revised Framework (“Basel II”); a<br />

revised version was published on 15 November 2005. Basel II replaces the 1988 Basel Capital Accord and<br />

places enhanced emphasis on risk-sensitivity and market discipline. The Basel Committee has suggested that<br />

the various approaches under the Framework should be implemented in stages, some from year-end 2006; the<br />

most advanced at year-end <strong>2007</strong>. National implementation dates may differ depending on the relevant<br />

implementation process. If implemented in accordance with its current form, Basel II could affect the risk<br />

weighting of the Notes in respect of investors which are subject to Basel II in the form of any national<br />

legislative implementation thereof including, in respect of EU financial institution investors, via the proposed<br />

directive, comprising the Directive 2006/48/EC of the <strong>Europe</strong>an Parliament and of the Council of 14 June 2006<br />

relating to the taking up and pursuit of the business of credit institutions and the Directive 2006/49/EC of the<br />

<strong>Europe</strong>an Parliament and of the Council of 14 June 2006 on the capital adequacy of investment firms and credit<br />

institutions (the “Capital Requirements Directive”). Consequently, investors should consult their own<br />

advisors as to the consequences to and effect on them of the proposed national implementation of Basel II. No<br />

predictions can be made by the Issuer as to the precise effects of potential changes which might result if Basel II<br />

is adopted in its current form or otherwise.<br />

United States Tax Characterisation of the Notes: Although the Notes are denominated as debt, there is a<br />

significant possibility that one or more classes of Notes may be treated as equity for United States federal<br />

income tax purposes. Such a characterisation could have certain adverse tax consequences to United States<br />

investors who hold such Notes. Noteholders who are United States persons should carefully review the<br />

discussion of U.S. federal income tax consequences in “United States Taxation—Possible Alternative<br />

67


Characterisation of the Notes” below and should consult their own tax advisers about the U.S. federal income<br />

tax consequences of investing in the Notes.<br />

Change of Law: The structure of the issue of the Notes and the ratings which are to be assigned to them are<br />

based on English law and administrative practice in effect as at the date of this document. No assurance can be<br />

given as to the impact of any possible change to English law or administrative practice after the date of this<br />

document, nor can any assurance be given as to whether any such change could adversely affect the ability of<br />

the Issuer to make payments under the Notes.<br />

Emerging Requirements of the <strong>Europe</strong>an Community: As part of the harmonisation of securities markets in<br />

<strong>Europe</strong>, the <strong>Europe</strong>an Commission has adopted a directive known as the Prospectus Directive (which was<br />

required to be implemented by Member States by 1 July 2005) that regulates offers of securities to the public<br />

and admissions within the trading within the E.U. (an “E.U. regulated market”). The <strong>Europe</strong>an Commission<br />

has also adopted Directive 2004/109/EC of the <strong>Europe</strong>an Parliament and of the Council of 15 December 2004<br />

(the “Transparency Directive”) (which must be implemented by Member States by the end of 2006) that,<br />

among other things, imposes continuing financial reporting obligations on issuers that have certain types of<br />

securities admitted to trading on an E.U. regulated market. In addition, Directive 2003/6/EC of the <strong>Europe</strong>an<br />

Parliament and of the Council of 28 January 2003 (the “Market Abuse Directive”) harmonises the rules on<br />

insider trading and market manipulation in respect of securities admitted to trading on an E.U. regulated market<br />

and requires issuers of such securities to disclose any non-public, price-sensitive information as soon as<br />

possible, subject to certain limited exemptions. The listing of Notes on the Official List of the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong><br />

<strong>Exchange</strong> and the admission of the Notes to trading on the regulated market of the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> would<br />

subject the Issuer to regulation under these directives. The Trust Deed will not require the Issuer to maintain a<br />

listing for Notes on an E.U. stock exchange if compliance with these directives (or other requirements adopted<br />

by the <strong>Europe</strong>an Commission or a relevant member State) is agreed by the Note Trustee to be unduly onerous.<br />

Conflicts of Interest<br />

General: The potential for various conflicts of interest exists with respect to the Borrower, the Loan<br />

Arranger, the Issuer, and the offering of the Notes, including conflicts of interests among the Borrower, the<br />

Loan Arranger, the Loan Seller, the Issuer, the Special Servicer, the Servicer, the Swap Provider and the<br />

Manager.<br />

Conflicts Between Loan Arranger and Issuer: Conflicts of interest between the Loan Arranger and<br />

affiliates of the Loan Arranger that engage in the acquisition, development, operation, financing and disposition<br />

of commercial property and the Issuer may arise because neither the Loan Arranger nor such affiliates will be<br />

prohibited in any way from engaging in business activities similar to or in competition with those of the<br />

Borrower. The Loan Arranger and affiliates of the Loan Arranger intend to continue to actively acquire,<br />

develop, operate, finance and dispose of property-related assets in the ordinary course of their business. During<br />

the course of their business activities the Loan Arranger and affiliates of the Loan Arranger may acquire, own or<br />

sell properties or finance loans secured by properties which are in the same markets as the Properties. In such a<br />

case, the interests of the Loan Arranger or such affiliates may differ from and compete with the interests of the<br />

Issuer, and decisions made with respect to such assets may adversely affect the amount and timing of payments<br />

with respect to the Notes. In addition, the Loan Arranger and its respective affiliates may have business, lending<br />

or other relationships with, or equity investments in, obligors under loans or tenants and conflicts of interest<br />

could arise between the interests of the Issuer and the interests of the Loan Arranger and such affiliates arising<br />

from such business relationships.<br />

Conflicts Between the Servicer or the Special Servicer and the Issuer: The Issuer has been advised by the<br />

Servicer and the Special Servicer (each, a “Servicing Entity”) that each intends to continue to service existing<br />

and new loans for third parties and its own portfolio, including loans similar to the Libra Whole Loan, in the<br />

ordinary course of their businesses. These loans may be in the same markets or have common owners, obligors<br />

and/or property managers as the Libra Loan and the Properties. Certain personnel of the applicable Servicing<br />

Entity may, on behalf of such Servicing Entity, perform services with respect to the Libra Whole Loan at the<br />

same time as they are performing services, on behalf of other persons or itself, with respect to other mortgage<br />

loans in the same markets as the Properties securing the Libra Whole Loan. In such a case, the interests of such<br />

Servicing Entity and its affiliates and their other clients may differ from and compete with the interests of the<br />

Issuer and such activities may adversely affect the amount and timing of collections on the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

In addition, affiliates of a Servicing Entity may actively engage in the financing of commercial property,<br />

including commercial property that competes with the Properties, and may in the future have relationships,<br />

68


including financing relationships, with the equity owners of the Borrower under the Libra Whole Loan. Such<br />

activities and relationships may create conflicts of interest for a Servicing Entity in its servicing of the Libra<br />

Whole Loan.<br />

Although the potential for a conflict of interest exists in these circumstances, pursuant to the terms of the<br />

Servicing Agreement, the Servicer and the Special Servicer have agreed to act in accordance with the Servicing<br />

Standard which would require them to service such loans without regard to such affiliation.<br />

Conflicts Between the Interests of the Holders of the Notes and the Controlling Class Representative: As<br />

described herein, under certain circumstances, the Controlling Class will be entitled to appoint a Controlling<br />

Class Representative (which may be the Controlling Class (or any member of the Controlling Class)) with<br />

respect to the Libra Whole Loan. Prior to the Servicer or Special Servicer making certain modifications with<br />

respect to the Libra Whole Loan, the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, will be required to obtain<br />

the approval of the Controlling Class Representative if it is the Controlling Party.<br />

Investors in the Notes should consider that a Controlling Class Representative may and, in certain events,<br />

will, have interests that conflict with those of the Noteholders and may oppose actions that would benefit the<br />

holders of the Notes. However, where there is a conflict between the opinion of the Controlling Class<br />

Representative and the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the opinion of the Servicer and the<br />

Special Servicer will prevail where in the reasonable opinion of the Servicer and the Special Servicer, there is a<br />

conflict with the Servicing Standard and the other terms of the Servicing Agreement, notwithstanding their<br />

consultation with a Controlling Class Representative.<br />

Rights of the Controlling Party: The Controlling Party will have the right to remove and replace the Special<br />

Servicer upon the occurrence of a Servicing Transfer Event and in some instances approve certain actions with<br />

respect to the Libra Whole Loan in the event that the Libra Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan<br />

including, among other things, any enforcement of the Libra Whole Loan, the appointment of a receiver,<br />

modifications, waivers and amendments of any monetary terms of the Libra Whole Loan, the release of any<br />

security, the release of the Borrower’s obligations under the relevant Credit Agreement and actions taken on the<br />

Properties with respect to environmental matters. The Special Servicer will not be required to follow any such<br />

direction that would cause it to violate the Servicing Standard. There can be no assurance that any directions<br />

provided by the Controlling Party will ultimately maximise the recovery on the Libra Whole Loan. Because the<br />

Controlling Party will represent a junior class of Notes or a Subordinate Lender, the Controlling Party will have<br />

interests that may conflict with those of the other Noteholders in respect of a Specially Serviced Loan.<br />

However, notwithstanding any right of the Controlling Party to provide any direction to the Servicer or<br />

Special Servicer, or to approve or disapprove of, or right to give direction to or to consent or withhold consent to<br />

any action of the Servicer or Special Servicer, in no event will the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as<br />

applicable, be obliged or permitted to take any action or refrain from taking any action that would violate any<br />

law of any applicable jurisdiction and/or which would be, in the opinion of the Servicer or the Special Servicer,<br />

as applicable, inconsistent with the Servicing Standard or violate any provisions of the Loan Documents or the<br />

Senior Intercreditor Deed. In addition, neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have any liability to<br />

any other entity for any action taken, or for refraining from taking any action, or for giving any consent, in each<br />

case in accordance with any directions or instructions given by the Controlling Party or a Subordinate Lender to<br />

the Servicer or, as the case may be, the Special Servicer. Where there is a conflict between the opinion of the<br />

Controlling Party and the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, the opinion of the Servicer or Special<br />

Servicer will prevail, where, in the reasonable opinion of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, there is<br />

a conflict with the Servicing Standard and the Loan Documents. See “Servicing—The Controlling Party”.<br />

Conflicts Between Affiliates of the Manager and the Issuer: Conflicts of interest between affiliates of the<br />

Manager and the Loan Arranger that engage in the acquisition, development, operation, financing and<br />

disposition of commercial property, on one hand, and the Issuer, on the other hand, may arise because such<br />

affiliates will not be prohibited in any way from engaging in business activities similar to or competitive with<br />

those of the Borrower. Affiliates of the Manager and the Loan Arranger intend to continue to actively acquire,<br />

develop, operate, finance and dispose of property-related assets in the ordinary course of their business. During<br />

the course of their business activities, affiliates of the Manager and the Loan Arranger may acquire, own or sell<br />

properties or finance mortgage loans secured by properties which are in the same markets as the Properties. In<br />

such a case, the interests of such affiliates may differ from and compete with the interests of the Issuer, and<br />

decisions made with respect to such assets may adversely affect the amount and timing of distributions with<br />

respect to the Notes. In addition, the Manager and their respective affiliates may have business, lending or other<br />

relationships with, or equity investments in, obligors under loans or tenants and conflicts of interest could arise<br />

69


etween the interests of the Issuer and the interests of the Manager and such affiliates arising from such business<br />

relationships.<br />

The Issuer believes that the risks described above are the principal risks inherent in the transaction for<br />

Noteholders, but the inability of the Issuer to pay interest, principal or other amounts on or in connection with<br />

the Notes may occur for other reasons and the Issuer does not represent that the above statements regarding the<br />

risk of holding the Notes are exhaustive. Although the Issuer believes that the various structural elements<br />

described in this Offering Circular lessen some of these risks for Noteholders, there can be no assurance that<br />

these measures will be sufficient to ensure payment to Noteholders of interest, principal or any other amounts<br />

on or in connection with the Notes on a timely basis or at all.<br />

THE LIBRA LOAN AND PROPERTIES<br />

General<br />

The Issuer’s assets will consist primarily of the senior tranche (the “Libra Loan”) of the Libra Whole<br />

Loan. The Libra Whole Loan is secured by mortgages of 294 freehold, part leasehold and part freehold and<br />

long leasehold healthcare properties and three staff accommodation properties, located throughout the United<br />

Kingdom and by security over all other assets of the Borrower Group. The Libra Loan has a Cut-Off Date<br />

Securitised Loan Principal Balance of £638,000,000; the Libra Whole Loan has a Cut-Off Date Whole Loan<br />

Principal Balance of £1,172,000,000.<br />

The Libra Whole Loan is a floating rate mortgage loan. The Borrower under the Libra Whole Loan has<br />

entered into an interest rate swap with respect to the Libra Whole Loan, pursuant to which the Borrower swaps<br />

an amount based on a fixed rate for an amount based on three-month LIBOR. For a description of the interest<br />

rate hedges, see “Description of the Swap Transactions” below.<br />

The Issuer will cause its interests in the Libra Loan to be charged to the Note Trustee, pursuant to the Deed<br />

of Charge and Assignment. The Servicer and the Special Servicer will service the Libra Whole Loan pursuant<br />

to the Servicing Agreement.<br />

Pursuant to the loan sale agreement (the “Loan Sale Agreement”) the Loan Arranger will make certain<br />

representations and warranties to the Issuer with respect to the Libra Loan and the Related Security and may be<br />

obliged to repurchase the Libra Loan in the event of a material breach of a representation or warranty with<br />

respect to the Libra Loan or its Related Security. See “—Loan Sale Agreement” below. There can be no<br />

assurance that, in the event that the Loan Arranger is obliged to repurchase the Libra Loan, it will be able to do<br />

so. The Loan Arranger will not have any obligations with respect to the Notes other than in respect of the<br />

representations, warranties and covenants made by it pursuant to the Loan Sale Agreement.<br />

On and from the Closing Date, the Issuer will be the lender under the Libra Loan in place of the Loan<br />

Seller.<br />

copy of the Valuation Report for the Properties is included on the CD-ROM distributed contemporaneously with<br />

this Offering Circular.<br />

“Value” or “Valuation” means the Net Value of such Properties as set forth in the Valuation Report.<br />

“Valuer” means King Sturge LLP.<br />

“Yield Maintenance Premium” means a form of prepayment consideration payable in connection with<br />

any voluntary or involuntary principal prepayment that is calculated pursuant to a yield maintenance formula,<br />

including any minimum amount equal to a specified percentage, which in some cases may vary, of the amount<br />

prepaid. In relation to the Libra Whole Loan, this shall be calculated as the present value of the interest<br />

payments which would have been due for the period from (and including) the date of prepayment through (and<br />

including) the Loan Maturity Date had interest accrued on such principal amount at a rate equal to 1.5000 per<br />

cent. per annum (the “Libra Expected Interest Payments”) and determined by discounting the Libra Expected<br />

Interest Payments at the LIBOR swap rate for an instrument having a term most nearly approximating the period<br />

from (and including) the prepayment date through (and including) the Loan Maturity Date.<br />

Underwriting of the Libra Whole Loan<br />

In connection with the origination of the Libra Whole Loan, the Loan Arranger evaluated the corresponding<br />

Properties in a manner generally consistent with the applicable standards described below. The due diligence<br />

procedures that were undertaken are those that would customarily be undertaken by a prudent lender making<br />

loans secured on commercial properties of the type comprising the Properties, so as to evaluate the Borrower’s<br />

ability to service its obligations under the Libra Whole Loan and so as to analyse the quality of the Properties.<br />

In order to do this, an analysis of the contractual cashflows and the overall quality of the real estate was<br />

undertaken by or on behalf of the Loan Arranger. Risk was assessed by stressing the cashflows derived from<br />

the tenant of the Properties from time to time and the risks associated with refinancing the amount due upon the<br />

maturity of the Facility.<br />

Property Title Investigation: 88 Certificates of Title, relating to 88 Properties, collectively representing<br />

40.3 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date<br />

Allocated Loan Amount, were prepared, in order to verify that the relevant Property Owners have good title to<br />

the relevant Properties, free from any encumbrances or other matters which would be considered to be of a<br />

material adverse nature, in relation to a sample of: 64 Properties located in England and Wales (representing<br />

28.9 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date<br />

Allocated Loan Amount); 19 Properties located in Scotland (representing 9.4 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date<br />

Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount); and five<br />

82


Properties located in Northern Ireland (representing 1.9 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal<br />

Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount) (the “Certificates of Title”).<br />

The Initial Certificates of Title were the subject of legal overview reports prepared on or about 24 February<br />

2006 by lawyers in each of England, Scotland and Northern Ireland (the “Legal Overview Reports”). The<br />

Legal Overview Reports were the subject of legal overview commentaries prepared by lawyers in each of<br />

England, Scotland and Northern Ireland and issued on or about 2 March 2006 (each, a “Legal Overview<br />

Commentary”).<br />

The Certificates of Title were in an institutionally acceptable form which prescribes comprehensive<br />

information relating to each Property to be set out. The Overview Reports contained relevant information in<br />

relation to each Property. The Borrower’s counsel provided an executive summary of title to the Loan Arranger<br />

for their review.<br />

Environmental Report: At or about the time of origination of the Libra Whole Loan, the Environmental<br />

Report was prepared by a third-party environmental consultant with respect to each Property. The<br />

Environmental Report consisted of a desktop review of publicly available information or documentation<br />

concerning the environmental conditions of the Properties and where it was considered necessary, consultations<br />

with environmental regulators, and did not include site visits or visual inspections of the related Properties. The<br />

purpose of the Environmental Report was to identify, to the extent reasonably possible and based upon<br />

reasonably available information, any adverse environmental conditions and potential liabilities resulting from<br />

potentially contaminative former land uses on the site or other significant potential contaminative land uses in<br />

the vicinity of the site, either currently or historically. However, there can be no assurance that the<br />

Environmental Report as with respect to any particular Property necessarily covers all potential environmental<br />

issues. See “Risk Factors—Loan Related Risks—Environmental Risks” above.<br />

The information contained in this Offering Circular regarding environmental conditions at the Properties is<br />

based upon the Environmental Report referred to above and has not been independently verified by the Issuer,<br />

the Manager, the Loan Arranger, the Original Lender, the Loan Seller, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the<br />

Note Trustee or the affiliates of any of these parties. There can be no assurance that the Environmental Report<br />

identified all environmental conditions and risks at the Properties or whether any such environmental condition<br />

or risk will have a material adverse effect on the value of or cash flow from one or more of those Properties.<br />

Engineering Report: Inspections of a sample of 50 Properties were conducted by appropriately qualified<br />

engineers or chartered surveyors. Such inspections were generally commissioned to assess the structure,<br />

exterior walls, roofing, interior construction mechanical and electrical systems and general conditions of the site,<br />

buildings and other improvements located at each of the sample properties. The resulting Engineering Report of<br />

the inspecting engineers or, as the case may be, surveyors indicated, where appropriate, a variety of deferred<br />

maintenance items and recommended capital improvements with respect to each relevant Property, as well as<br />

the estimated cost of such items and improvements. In each instance, the Loan Arranger either determined that<br />

such material items and improvements were being addressed by the related Property Owner in a satisfactory<br />

manner, or required that they be addressed post-closing and, in cases in which the estimated costs of such items<br />

and repairs was significant, that reserves be established to cover the related costs. See “—Certain Terms of the<br />

Libra Whole Loan” below for descriptions of the reserves or other security provided for deferred maintenance<br />

and capital improvements related to certain Properties.<br />

Property Management: The manager for each Property is Propco 10 (the “Managing Agent”), which was<br />

approved by the Loan Arranger in connection with the origination of the Libra Whole Loan. Generally, a<br />

managing agent is responsible for, among other things, enforcement of the applicable Property Owner’s rights<br />

under the Occupational Leases, maintenance and repairs to the applicable properties, and communicating with<br />

the Property Owner concerning the operation of the properties. A managing agent is responsible for planning<br />

and implementing an operating structure, which will include collection of rent and service charge, and ensuring<br />

that maintenance and capital improvements are carried out in a timely fashion. For additional information on<br />

each management agreement, see the loan description under “—Certain Terms of the Libra Whole Loan” below.<br />

See also “Risk Factors—Loan Related Risks—Risks Related to Property Management” above.<br />

Valuations: Prior to the origination of the Libra Whole Loan, the Valuer conducted a valuation of the<br />

portfolio of Properties in order to establish the approximate value of the property portfolio and prepared a<br />

valuation report, dated 31 January <strong>2007</strong>. The Valuation is the basis for the valuation figures contained within<br />

this Offering Circular.<br />

83


The Valuations contained in the Valuation Report represent the analysis and opinions of the Valuer at the<br />

date of the Valuation Report, have not been updated following origination and are not guarantees of, and may<br />

not be indicative of, present or future value. In each case there can be no assurance that another valuer would<br />

not have arrived at a different Valuation, even if such valuer used the same general approach to and same<br />

method of valuing the Property. In addition, Valuations seek to establish the value of a Property in an “arm’s<br />

length” transaction carried out between a willing buyer and a willing seller with the property being exposed to<br />

the open market but taking account only of its existing use, without adding any potential increase in value if<br />

redeveloped in the future. Such amount could be significantly higher than the amount obtained from the sale of<br />

a property under a distress or liquidation sale. See “Risk Factors—Loan Related Risks—Limitations of<br />

Valuations” above.<br />

In addition, market values of commercial real estate, and market rental rates for space in such types of<br />

properties fluctuate from time to time. Some of the values of the Properties reflect a general appreciation in<br />

market values of commercial real estate in the locations of such properties and would be expected to likewise<br />

reflect a general decline in such market values during a recession.<br />

Furthermore, in most cases, the valuation was conducted in connection with origination and prior to the<br />

commencement of planned repairs and renovations or any planned capital improvements and/or the<br />

implementation of new management policies. Neither the Issuer nor the Loan Arranger has prepared or<br />

obtained a separate independent valuation or revaluation or otherwise confirmed the values set forth in the<br />

Valuation Report.<br />

Occupancy Statements, Operating Statements and Other Data: The Loan Arranger took steps to review, to<br />

the extent available or applicable, Borrower-provided rent rolls, leases, and related information or statements of<br />

occupancy rates, market data, financial data, operating statements and receipts for insurance premia, among<br />

other things.<br />

Obligors Under the Libra Whole Loan<br />

The Borrower is a wholly owned subsidiary of another company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with<br />

limited liability, (the “Shareholder” or, in its capacity as borrower under the PIK Facility Loan, the “PIK<br />

Facility Borrower”). “Guarantor 1”, is a limited liability company incorporated in the Cayman Islands, and is<br />

the direct subsidiary of the Borrower through which the PIK Facility Borrower indirectly, and the Borrower<br />

directly, own the entire issued share capital of each of the limited liability companies indicated on the chart<br />

below. Each of those companies whose name commences with ‘Guarantor’ and is followed by a number in the<br />

chart below is a guarantor of the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, and of the PIK<br />

Facility Borrower under the PIK Facility Loan Agreement, each of the Property Owners is also a guarantor of<br />

the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the PIK Facility Borrower under the PIK<br />

Facility Loan Agreement (each a “Guarantor”, and, together, the “Guarantors”). Collectively, the Borrower<br />

and the Guarantors are the “Obligors” of the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement.<br />

Certain Terms of the Libra Whole Loan<br />

General: The Libra Whole Loan is documented in a senior term loan facility agreement dated 15 January<br />

<strong>2007</strong> (the “Credit Agreement”) which is governed by English law. The obligations of the Borrower under the<br />

Libra Whole Loan are guaranteed by 37 companies in the Borrower Group, 15 of which are Property Owners.<br />

Each Guarantor is jointly and severally liable as a guarantor for all Borrower obligations under the Credit<br />

Agreement.<br />

Interest and Repayments: The rate of interest payable on the Libra Whole Loan for each relevant Interest<br />

Accrual Period is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of 1.5000 per cent. per annum, Loan<br />

LIBOR and mandatory costs, if any. The rate of interest payable on the Libra Loan for each relevant Loan<br />

Interest Accrual Period is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of 0.9627 per cent., Loan<br />

LIBOR and mandatory costs, if any. Accrued interest is payable quarterly on 15 th January, 15 th April, 15 th July<br />

and 15 th October in each year and on the Loan Maturity Date. If, however, any such day is not a Business Day,<br />

accrued interest will be payable on the next Loan Business Day in that calendar month (if there is one) or the<br />

preceding Loan Business Day (if there is not).<br />

The Borrower must repay the Libra Whole Loan in full, on or by 15 January 2009, subject to exercise of an<br />

option contained in the Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date of the Libra Whole Loan; the maturity date<br />

of the Libra Whole Loan may be extended to 15 January 2010, provided that (i) no Loan Event of Default is<br />

outstanding on 15 January 2009; and (ii) the final maturity date under the PIK Facility Loan Agreement is also<br />

being extended to 15 January 2010.<br />

Cash Management: Rental income paid in relation to 297 Properties owned by the Property Owners must<br />

be paid into the Rent Account charged to the finance parties and in respect of which the Security Agent has sole<br />

signing rights. The Security Agent is authorised to make withdrawals from the Rent Account on each Due Date<br />

in payment of the following amounts, in the following order: (i) any unpaid costs and expenses of the Security<br />

Agent due but unpaid under the Loan Documents; (ii) any unpaid amount due to the Swap Provider as a result of<br />

termination under the Hedging Arrangement; (iii) any payment (not being a payment as a result of termination)<br />

due but unpaid to the Swap Provider under the Hedging Arrangement; (iv) any break costs due but unpaid under<br />

the Loan Documents; (v) the fees of the Managing Agent as provided for in the Credit Agreement; (vi) any<br />

accrued interest due but unpaid under the Credit Agreement; and (vii) any surplus in or towards repayment of<br />

the Libra Whole Loan. On or before utilisation of the Libra Whole Loan, an upfront reserve of £17,476,993.61<br />

(as at 26 April <strong>2007</strong>) was deposited into the Cash Reserve Account, to be applied should there be a shortfall in<br />

the Rent Account, for the purpose of paying amounts due to be paid from the Rent Account. Amounts on<br />

deposit in the Cash Reserve Account will be taken into account in the calculation of the Libra Whole Loan U/W<br />

ICR and the Libra Whole Loan U/W DSCR.<br />

If the Security Agent receives payments which are insufficient to discharge all the amounts then due and<br />

payable by the Borrower under the Loan Documents, it must apply such payments in the following order: (i)<br />

towards payment pro rata of any unpaid fees, costs and expenses of the Security Agent under the Loan<br />

Documents; (ii) towards payment of any unpaid amount due to the Swap Provider as a result of termination<br />

under the Hedging Arrangement; (iii) towards payment of any periodic payments (not being a payment as a<br />

result of termination) due but unpaid to the Swap Provider under the Hedging Arrangement; (iv) towards<br />

payment pro rata of any break costs due but unpaid under the Loan Documents; (v) towards payment pro rata<br />

of accrued interest due but unpaid under the Credit Agreement; (vi) towards payment pro rata of any principal<br />

payment due but unpaid under the Credit Agreement; (vii) towards payment pro rata of payments due but<br />

unpaid to the Swap Provider as a result of termination or closing out arising from: an event of default relating to<br />

the Swap Provider; and (viii) in or towards payment pro rata of any other sum due but unpaid under the Loan<br />

Documents.<br />

In addition to the Rent Account, the General Account, the Deposit Account, the Capital Expenditure<br />

Reserve Account and the Cash Reserve Account are accounts held in the name of the Borrower pursuant to the<br />

Credit Agreement. Any amount which under the Credit Agreement is not specifically required to be paid into<br />

any other Account, is paid into the General Account in relation to which the Borrower has signing rights and<br />

from which the Borrower may withdraw amounts as long as no Default is outstanding. Any amounts the<br />

Borrower is required to prepay under the Credit Agreement will need to be paid into the Deposit Account from<br />

which Account the Security Agent will on the relevant Due Date withdraw any amounts for application in<br />

voluntary or mandatory prepayment of the Libra Loan in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.<br />

On or before utilisation of the Libra Whole Loan, the Capital Expenditure Reserve Account was funded with the<br />

86


amount of: (i) £216,000 as an upfront reserve for capital expenditure; and (ii) £100,000 as an upfront reserve<br />

against environmental costs identified in the Environmental Report. Amounts standing in the Capital<br />

Expenditure Reserve Account are to be used to fund capital expenditure recommended in the Engineering<br />

Report and the Environmental Report. In addition, on or before utilisation of the Libra Whole Loan, the Cash<br />

Reserve Account was funded with an upfront cash reserve of £17,476,993.61 (as at 26 April <strong>2007</strong>).<br />

Prepayment: The Borrower is under an obligation to pay prepayment fees in the case of prepayment of the<br />

Libra Whole Loan, in whole or in part. No prepayment fee is payable however in the event of voluntary<br />

prepayment or mandatory prepayment due to: (i) illegality; (ii) the Borrower being required to pay any increased<br />

cost or tax gross up to a lender; or (iii) a disposal of the portfolio of Propco 11 or of Propco 12 which must have<br />

taken place prior to 15 April <strong>2007</strong> (an “Early CH1 Disposal”).<br />

The Borrower may, by giving not less than thirty Loan Business Days’ prior notice to the lenders,<br />

voluntarily prepay the whole or any part of the Libra Whole Loan on the last day of the then current Interest<br />

Period. Any such prepayment of the Libra Whole Loan must be in a minimum amount of £5,000,000 and<br />

integral multiples of £1,000,000.<br />

Any prepayment by the Borrower under the Credit Agreement must be made with accrued interest on the<br />

amount prepaid up to and including the last day of the relevant Loan Interest Accrual Period, together with any<br />

Break Costs and any prepayment fee payable under the Loan Documents in connection with such prepayment.<br />

If the Borrower is under an obligation to pay a prepayment fee, such prepayment fee will be payable as<br />

follows: (a) from (and including) 15 January <strong>2007</strong> to (and including) 15 January 2008 a Yield Maintenance<br />

Premium; and (b) thereafter a Prepayment Charge equal to 0.75 per cent. of the amount prepaid from (but not<br />

including) 15 January 2008 to (but not including) the Loan Maturity Date.<br />

Origination: The “Libra Whole Loan” is a fully-drawn £1,172,000,000 senior term loan which was<br />

extended to the Borrower by the Original Lender pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The Libra Whole Loan<br />

comprises a senior tranche (the “Libra Loan”) having a Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance of<br />

£638,000,000 and six subordinate tranches (each a “Subordinate Tranche” and collectively, the “Subordinate<br />

Debt”) which will not be held by the Issuer, but will instead be held by other lenders, each respectively having a<br />

Cut-Off Date Secured Subordinated Debt Principal Balance of £100,000,000 in the case of the B0-1 Loan,<br />

£198,838,700 in the case of the B0-2 Loan, £54,000,000 in the case of the B1 Loan, £66,000,000 in the case of<br />

the B2 Loan, £63,000,000 in the case of the B3 Loan and £52,161,300 in the case of the B4 Loan.<br />

The Libra Whole Loan was used to refinance the acquisition of the Properties by the Borrower and for<br />

making distributions to the Shareholder.<br />

Disposal of Properties:<br />

No Obligor which owns a Property may dispose of a Property (directly or indirectly through the disposal of<br />

an Obligor), either in a single transaction or in a series of transactions, unless:<br />

(a) upon such disposal the Borrower prepays part of the Libra Whole Loan as follows:<br />

(i) in the case of an Early CH1 Disposal relating to Propco 11 and Propco 12 and their Properties, an<br />

amount equal to the greater of: (A) 100 per cent. of the net proceeds; and (B) the aggregate of<br />

£268,800,000 and all amounts which will fall due under the Loan Documents (including any<br />

termination payments under the Hedging Arrangement) and the PIK Facility Finance Documents<br />

in connection with the prepayment, will be applied in prepayment of the Libra Whole Loan and the<br />

PIK Facility Loan on a pro rata basis and in payment of the amounts due under the Loan<br />

Documents and the PIK Facility Finance Documents;<br />

(ii) in the case of any other disposal (including a disposal which is not an Early CH1 Disposal), an<br />

amount equal to the greater of: (A) 110 per cent. of the Allocated Loan Amount for the relevant<br />

Property if the value of the Properties disposed of (directly or indirectly through the disposal of an<br />

Obligor), when aggregated with the value of all Properties which have been disposed of, does not<br />

exceed 15 per cent. of the value of all the Properties on 15 January <strong>2007</strong>); and (B) 115 per cent. of<br />

the Allocated Loan Amount for the relevant Property if paragraph (a)(ii)(A) above does not apply,<br />

will be applied in prepayment of the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

87


The value of the Properties comprising the portfolio owned by Propco 11 and Propco 12 shall be<br />

ignored for the purposes of the calculation under (a)(ii)(A) above if an Obligor has entered into an<br />

Early CH1 Disposal and as a result of such disposal the Libra Whole Loan has been repaid in an<br />

amount at least equal to 115 per cent. of the Allocated Loan Amount for the Properties comprising the<br />

Portfolio owned by Propco 11 and Propco 12 and the PIK Facility Loan has been prepaid in an amount<br />

at least equal to 115 per cent. of the Allocated Loan Amount under the PIK Facility Loan Agreement<br />

for the Properties comprising the Portfolio owned by Propco 11 and Propco 12.<br />

If on a disposal of a Property (directly or indirectly through the disposal of an Obligor) as set out above<br />

under (a)(ii), the aggregate principal amount to be prepaid as calculated under (a)(ii) above and under<br />

the PIK Facility Loan as a result of such disposal is less than 90 per cent. of the net proceeds from that<br />

disposal, the Borrower must procure that an amount equal to the difference between the principal<br />

amount required to be prepaid under (a)(ii) above and under the PIK Facility Loan and the net proceeds<br />

from such disposal will be applied in prepayment on a pro rata basis of the Libra Whole Loan and the<br />

PIK Facility Loan;<br />

(b) the Security Agent is satisfied that immediately after the disposal of the Property in accordance with<br />

paragraph (a) above the Interest Cover will be at least the greater of (i) 105 per cent. and (ii) the<br />

Interest Cover immediately preceding such disposal; and<br />

(c) that disposal is on arm’s length terms;<br />

(d) no Loan Event of Default is outstanding at the time of the disposal of the Property or could reasonably<br />

be expected to occur as a result of such disposal; and<br />

(e) the Borrower has, prior to the making of such disposal, delivered to the Security Agent (if so requested)<br />

evidence acceptable to the Security Agent to the effect either that the making of the disposal will not<br />

result in the Borrower Group incurring any material tax liability (including without limitation liability<br />

for capital gains tax or de-grouping charges) or, to the extent such a liability would be incurred, that<br />

appropriate arrangements or reserves are being made by the Borrower Group to pay that liability in full<br />

when due such that the making of the disposal could in no way impair the performance by the Obligors<br />

of their obligations under the Credit Agreement or the payment of the Borrower Group’s operating<br />

expenses when due.<br />

Property Ownership: The number of Properties owned by each Property Owner is as set out above in the<br />

definition of Property Owner.<br />

Guarantee: Each of the companies in the Borrower Group (excluding the Borrower) is a Guarantor and has<br />

guaranteed the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents which will extend to the ultimate balance of<br />

sums payable by any Obligor under the Loan Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge<br />

in whole or in part.<br />

The Guarantors have granted the following security for the Libra Whole Loan: Guarantor 1 has charged the<br />

shares of “Guarantor 3”, a company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability, and Guarantor 3<br />

has charged the shares in “Guarantor 5”, also a company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited<br />

liability, pursuant to two share charge instruments each under Cayman Islands law. “Guarantor 12”, a<br />

company incorporated with limited liability in Jersey, has charged the shares of “Guarantor 14”, also a<br />

company incorporated with limited liability in Jersey, pursuant to a Jersey law security interest agreement. Each<br />

Obligor of the Libra Whole Loan, in its capacity as a guarantor of the Libra Whole Loan, has charged, inter alia,<br />

their respective interests in all of the Properties which are located in England and Wales, together with all Rental<br />

Income derived therefrom pursuant to the Security Deed, governed by English law.<br />

Every Property Owner in the Borrower Group is also a Guarantor.<br />

Representations and Warranties: Each Obligor has represented and warranted under the Credit Agreement<br />

on the date of the Credit Agreement (and these are deemed to be made by each Obligor on the first day of each<br />

relevant interest accrual period) as to (a) formation, power and authority of each Obligor; (b) validity and<br />

enforceability of the Loan Documents; (c) no conflict with applicable law; (d) no Loan Event of Default; (e) all<br />

requisite authorisations have been obtained and all filings and registrations have been made; (f) all financial<br />

statements have been prepared under new UK GAAP; (g) no material adverse change in financial status; (h)<br />

88


subject to matters disclosed in the due diligence provided to the Loan Arranger, no material litigation; (i)<br />

accuracy of information supplied; and (j) title to Property.<br />

Financial Covenants: The Borrower must ensure that the Libra Whole Loan LTV does not, at any time,<br />

exceed 92.70 per cent. If the Borrower fails to comply with this requirement it will be required to remedy the<br />

breach within ten Loan Business Days by: (i) prepaying the Libra Whole Loan in such an amount that the Libra<br />

Whole Loan LTV is no greater than 92.70 per cent.; or (ii) by paying such an amount into the Deposit Account,<br />

provided such amount is applied in prepayment of the Libra Whole Loan if on the date which is three months<br />

after the date of such payment in the Deposit Account, the Libra Whole Loan LTV is greater than 92.70 per<br />

cent. In addition, the Borrower must ensure that the Interest Cover on each Due Date is at least 105 per cent.<br />

Should the Borrower fail to comply with the Interest Cover covenant, it will be required to remedy the breach<br />

within ten Loan Business Days by: (i) prepaying the Libra Whole Loan in an amount sufficient to return the<br />

Interest Cover to no less than 105 per cent.; or (ii) by paying such an amount into the Deposit Account, provided<br />

such amount is applied in prepayment of the Libra Whole Loan on the next Interest Payment Date if on the next<br />

immediately succeeding Interest Payment Date the Interest Cover is less than 105 per cent.<br />

Undertakings: The Obligors have covenanted in the Credit Agreement: (a) that their payment obligations<br />

under the Loan Documents rank at least pari passu with their other unsecured payment obligations; (b) not to<br />

create security over their assets (other than certain permitted security); (c) not to dispose of their assets (other<br />

than certain permitted disposals); (d) not to incur any financial indebtedness (subject to limited exceptions); (e)<br />

not to make any loans or give any guarantees (subject to limited exceptions); (f) not to change their business,<br />

merge with any person or acquire any assets (subject to limited exceptions); (g) not to issue any further shares,<br />

repay or redeem any share capital or pay any dividends (subject to limited exceptions); (h) not to be a member<br />

of a value added tax group other than one only comprising other members of the Borrower Group; and (i) to pay<br />

all taxes due an payable by it.<br />

Property Undertakings: The property undertakings in respect of each member of the Borrower Group<br />

under the Credit Agreement include the following:<br />

No Property Owner may, without the consent of the lenders: (a) enter into any agreement for lease other<br />

than a principal agreement for lease; (b) grant or agree to grant any new Occupational Lease other than under an<br />

agreement for lease; (c) agree to any amendment, waiver or surrender in respect of any lease; (d) commence any<br />

forfeiture or irritancy proceedings in respect of any lease; (e) grant any contractual licence or right to occupy<br />

(subject to limited exceptions) any part of a Property; (f) consent to any sub-lease or assignment of any tenant’s<br />

interest under any lease; or (g) agree to any downward rent review in respect of any lease.<br />

Each Obligor must use all reasonable endeavours, but without payment of a reverse premium or other<br />

financial contribution, to find tenants for any vacant lettable space which is legally capable of being let in any<br />

Property with a view to granting an agreement for lease or Occupational Lease of the relevant Property.<br />

Insurance: Save where the landlord is responsible to insure under the terms of any of the leases relating to<br />

the Leasehold Properties, each Property Owner is required to insure each Property, plant and machinery on a full<br />

reinstatement basis, including “all risks” cover, cover for site clearance, 3 years’ loss of rent, public liability<br />

insurance in an amount of not less than £10,000,000 and such other insurance as a prudent company of the<br />

Property Owners’ type would effect. Loss of rent insurance must include loss of rent arising from loss of access<br />

to a Property due to disease, as well as loss of rental income from forfeiture by the operator of the Property of its<br />

registration certificate. In addition, each Property Owner must ensure that that the Security Agent is named on<br />

all insurance policies as first loss payee for any accounts received in excess of £100,000. All insurances must be<br />

held with an insurance company or underwriter that has a Requisite Rating.<br />

Environmental Matters: Save where it is the responsibility of the tenant in occupation of the relevant<br />

Property, each Property Owner must ensure that it is in compliance with all Environmental Laws and<br />

Environmental Approvals applicable to it where failure to do so would be reasonably likely to have a Material<br />

Adverse Effect.<br />

Each Obligor must promptly upon becoming aware of the same, notify the Finance Parties of: (a) any<br />

Environmental Claim current, or to its knowledge, pending or threatened in each case against any member of the<br />

Borrower Group; (b) any circumstances reasonably likely to result in any Environmental Claim being<br />

commenced or threatened against any member of the Borrower Group; or (c) any suspension, revocation or<br />

notification of any Environmental Approval, which in the case of (a), (b) or (c) if substantiated, has or is<br />

reasonably likely to either have a Material Adverse Effect or result in any liability for a Finance Party.<br />

89


Default: The Credit Agreement contains certain events of default (each, a “Loan Event of Default”)<br />

including non-payment (subject to a three Loan Business Day grace period for non-payment caused by technical<br />

or administrative error or a disruption event), breach of covenant (subject, in the case of non-material breaches<br />

only, to a ten Loan Business Day cure period), misrepresentation (subject to a ten Loan Business Day cure<br />

period), other financial indebtedness being declared due, insolvency of a member of the Borrower Group or the<br />

Principal Tenant (and related and analogous events), the Loan Documents ceasing to be effective or becoming<br />

unlawful, cessation of business, repudiation and rescission of agreements, litigation or the occurrence of an<br />

event or series of events which, in the opinion of the Lenders, is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse<br />

Effect.<br />

Acceleration: Upon a continuing Loan Event of Default, the lenders may declare the Libra Whole Loan due<br />

and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all other amounts accrued or outstanding under the Loan<br />

Documents.<br />

Enforceability: Generally, the security under each Security Agreement and each Mortgage of Shares will<br />

become immediately enforceable if a Loan Event of Default occurs and is continuing, in respect of which notice<br />

has been given to the Borrower, and the Security Agent may in its absolute discretion and without notice to a<br />

chargor enforce all or any part of the security in any manner it sees fit or as the majority lenders direct.<br />

PIK Facility Loan: On 15 January <strong>2007</strong>, the Shareholder entered in a separate, subordinated £70,000,000<br />

term loan (the “PIK Facility Loan”) pursuant to a term loan facility agreement with Credit Suisse (the “PIK<br />

Facility Loan Agreement”). The PIK Facility Loan is due on 15 February 2009 or, if no default under the PIK<br />

Facility Loan is outstanding and the maturity date of the Libra Whole Loan is extended to 15 January 2010, then<br />

the PIK Facility Loan will be due on 15 February 2010. Interest is payable on the PIK Facility Loan at a rate of<br />

26 per cent. per annum plus applicable mandatory costs, and prior to 15 February 2009 (or, if applicable, 15<br />

February 2010) will be capitalised and added to the principal amount of the PIK Facility Loan.<br />

The PIK Facility Loan is secured against the equity in the Borrower by way of a first fixed charge.<br />

Further, the PIK Facility Loan is guaranteed and subordinated pursuant to a guarantee and subordination deed,<br />

which guarantee (the “Guarantee”) is secured by the same security as that for the Libra Whole Loan, and in<br />

which each Guarantor also guarantees the Senior Debt (the “Guarantee and Subordination Deed”). The<br />

security for the Libra Whole Loan, discussed below, also secures the guarantee of payment obligations under the<br />

PIK Facility Loan. Under the Guarantee and Subordination Deed, all liabilities payable or owing by any Obligor<br />

to the Shareholder or to any other Obligor (the “Subordinated Debt”) are subordinate to any liabilities of an<br />

Obligor to the Finance Parties under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, until all liabilities under the<br />

Credit Agreement have been unconditionally and irrevocably paid and discharged in full. During such period no<br />

Obligor may pay, repay or discharge in any other way, the Subordinated Debt (unless for the purposes of<br />

enabling the Borrower to perform its obligations under the Credit Agreement) or create any security interest<br />

over its assets to secure the repayment of the Subordinated Debt and the Subordinated Debt may not be<br />

accelerated or enforced. See “The Libra Loan and Properties—PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed”.<br />

The PIK Facility Loan will not be held by the Issuer, but instead will be held by one or more other lenders<br />

(each, a “PIK Facility Lender”).<br />

Security for the Libra Whole Loan<br />

Property Owners<br />

Creation of Security: Under the Security Agreements, each Obligor, including each Property Owner,<br />

granted certain security over their respective present and future assets to the Security Agent as security for the<br />

payment of the Obligors’ liabilities under the Libra Whole Loan and the PIK Facility Loan (the “Secured<br />

Liabilities”). The Security Agent holds the security for its benefit and as agent and trustee for the Finance<br />

Parties under the Libra Whole Loan and the PIK Facility Loan (each, a “Secured Creditor”).<br />

the Security Agent has designated in writing as a Relevant Contract (a “Relevant Contract”);<br />

(i) first fixed charges over, inter alia, its goodwill, the benefit of any authorisation (statutory or otherwise)<br />

held in connection with its use of any charged asset and its uncalled capital; and<br />

(j) first floating charges over all its assets not otherwise effectively mortgaged, charged or assigned by<br />

way of fixed mortgage, charge or assignment under the Security Agreement to which it is a party.<br />

Scottish Security: Each Property Owner that owns a Property located in Scotland granted a first ranking<br />

fixed security over such Property in favour of the Security Agent as security for the payment of all the Secured<br />

Liabilities by way of a standard security and assigned its rights to the Rental Income with respect to such<br />

Property pursuant to a Scots law assignation of rent. The Security Agent holds the benefit of the security as<br />

trustee for the Secured Creditors.<br />

Northern <strong>Irish</strong> Security: Each Property Owner that owns a Property located in Northern Ireland has granted<br />

security in favour of the Security Agent as security for the payment of all the Secured Liabilities over all of its<br />

present and future assets located in Northern Ireland pursuant to a Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law Security Agreement on<br />

similar terms as the English Security Agreement. This security included a first legal charge over each registered<br />

Property and a first legal mortgage of all unregistered Property located in Northern Ireland and an assignment of<br />

all its rights under each lease, all Rental Income, under any guarantee of Rental Income and under each Relevant<br />

Contract in respect of such Property. The Security Agent holds the benefit of the security for itself and as agent<br />

and trustee for the Secured Creditors.<br />

Other Obligors<br />

English Security Agreements: Each Obligor other than the Property Owners granted the following security<br />

pursuant to an English Security Agreement:<br />

(a) first legal mortgages or first fixed charges over all of their respective estates or interests in any freehold<br />

and long leasehold property located in England & Wales, including each Property owned by them;<br />

(b) first fixed charges over their respective interests in all shares, stocks, debentures, bonds or other<br />

Cayman Island Security: Each Obligor holding a legal and beneficial interest in the shares of a company<br />

incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands has charged by way of first fixed charge all of its interest in<br />

the shares in such company to the Security Agent, acting for itself and as agent and trustee for the Secured<br />

Creditors and has assigned all present and future benefits accruing in respect of the charged shares and all of its<br />

rights, title and interest to and in such shares including (without limitation) all voting and other consensual<br />

powers to such charged shares to the Security Agent acting in the aforementioned capacity.<br />

Jersey Security: Each Obligor holding a legal and beneficial interest in the shares of a company<br />

incorporated under the laws of the Island of Jersey has given possession of the certificates of title to the shares<br />

in such company to the Security Agent, acting for itself and as agent and trustee for the Secured Creditors, with<br />

the intent that the Security Agent shall have a first priority Jersey Security Interest in such shares.<br />

Undertakings: Under each Security Agreement, each Obligor has undertaken:<br />

(a) not to create or permit to subsist any other security interest on any property charged thereunder; and<br />

(b) except as expressly allowed in the Credit Agreement or the relevant Loan Document, not to dispose of<br />

any property charged thereunder.<br />

Enforceability: The security under each Security Agreement other than those governed by Jersey law will<br />

become immediately enforceable if an event of default in respect of which a notice has been served on the<br />

Borrower occurs and is continuing. The Jersey Security Interests are expressed to become enforceable fourteen<br />

days after the service on the Borrower of a notice specifying the Loan Event of Default if such Loan Event of<br />

Default is not remedied within that period. The security confers upon the Security Agent a wide range of<br />

powers in connection with the sale or disposal of the property charged and its management. The Security Agent<br />

is granted powers of attorney on behalf of the chargors in connection with the enforcement of its security.<br />

Senior Intercreditor Deed<br />

General: The Libra Whole Loan comprises the senior tranche (the “Libra Loan” or the “Senior Debt”) of<br />

a whole loan made to the Borrower, together with six related subordinate tranches, the “B0-1 Loan”, the “B0-2<br />

Loan”, the “B1 Loan”, the “B2 Loan”, the “B3 Loan” and the “B4 Loan” (each of the aforementioned<br />

tranches, other than the Libra Loan, a “B Loan” or a “Subordinate Tranche” and, collectively, the<br />

“Subordinate Debt”), which will not be held by the Issuer, but will instead be held by the Loan Seller or a third<br />

party (each of the latter, a “Subordinate Lender” and, collectively, the “Subordinate Lenders”).<br />

An intercreditor deed (the “Senior Intercreditor Deed”) has been entered into in relation to the Libra<br />

Whole Loan between the holder of the Senior Debt, as senior lender, the Security Agent, the Swap Provider and<br />

the Subordinate Lenders.<br />

The principal balances on the Senior Debt and the Subordinate Debt comprising the Libra Whole Loan are:<br />

92


Loan Name<br />

Principal Amount<br />

Libra Loan £638,000,000<br />

B0-1 Loan £100,000,000<br />

B0-2 Loan £198,838,700<br />

B1 Loan £54,000,000<br />

B2 Loan £66,000,000<br />

B3 Loan £63,000,000<br />

B4 Loan £52,161,300<br />

Subordination: For these purposes “Subordination Event of Default” means the occurrence of an event of<br />

default with respect to the Libra Whole Loan as a result of non-payment by the Borrower or the occurrence of<br />

an insolvency event with respect to the Borrower or any other Obligor.<br />

Provided that a Subordination Event of Default is not continuing pursuant to the Senior Intercreditor Deed,<br />

interest will be paid on the Libra Loan prior to interest being paid on the related Subordinate Debt.<br />

With respect to amortisation payments of the Libra Whole Loan, pursuant to the Senior Intercreditor Deed,<br />

prior to the occurrence of a Subordination Event of Default such amounts will be paid after the payment of<br />

interest to the Subordinate Debt and will be paid pro rata to the amounts of the Senior Debt and Subordinate<br />

Debt outstanding. Amounts due to the Servicer and Special Servicer in respect of the Libra Whole Loan will be<br />

paid or provided for prior to any amount being paid to the Issuer or the relevant Subordinate Lender.<br />

Upon the occurrence of a Subordination Event of Default (taking into account any applicable grace period<br />

under the Credit Agreement, but without taking into account whether the related cure period has expired), for so<br />

long as a Subordinate Lender is not making any cure payments in the manner described under “—Cure Rights of<br />

Subordinate Lenders” below, all amounts that would have been distributed to the relevant Subordinate Lender<br />

prior to the occurrence of such Subordination Event of Default will instead be credited to a ledger (the “Grace<br />

Period Ledger”) in an account to be opened by the Security Agent pursuant to the Senior Intercreditor Deed<br />

(the “Libra Tranching Account”). If: (a) a Subordinate Lender makes a waiver (with respect to shortfalls or<br />

such Subordinate Lender’s right to payment) and/or cure payment with respect to all payments due to a more<br />

senior Lender; or (b) if the Borrower cures all defaults, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement,<br />

the amounts held in the Grace Period Ledger will be disbursed to that Subordinate Lender. If, however, no<br />

Subordinate Lender makes a cure payment during the applicable cure period and the Borrower does not cure all<br />

defaults, before the Due Date next following the Subordination Event of Default the amounts held in the Grace<br />

Period Ledger will be disbursed pursuant to the post-default priority of payments set forth in the Senior<br />

Intercreditor Deed on the next Due Date.<br />

During the period beginning with a Subordination Event of Default relating to the Libra Whole Loan until<br />

the end of any cure period during which the related Subordinate Lender is curing, or has the right to cure any<br />

relevant Loan Event of Default (see “—Cure Rights of Subordinate Lender”), no payments will be made on the<br />

Subordinate Debt until all amounts outstanding on the Libra Loan have been paid in full.<br />

Enforcement Rights: Prior to the date on which the Libra Loan has been discharged pursuant to the Senior<br />

Intercreditor Deed, no Subordinate Lender is permitted (without the prior written consent of any lender under<br />

the Libra Whole Loan ranking more senior) to enforce its Subordinate Debt.<br />

Cure Rights of Subordinate Lender: Pursuant to the terms of the Senior Intercreditor Deed, each<br />

Subordinate Lender is permitted to cure a non-payment by the Borrower under the Libra Whole Loan within a<br />

period of 28 days of notification of the non-payment, or any other Loan Event of Default (other than a nonpayment<br />

by the Borrower) and which is remediable, unless (in the case of such other Loan Events of Default)<br />

the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, determines that to allow such cures of defaults, other than<br />

payment defaults would be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard. In order to cure such Borrower default, the<br />

relevant Subordinate Lender may pay an amount equal to the relevant deficiency.<br />

Pursuant to the terms of the Senior Intercreditor Deed, a Subordinate Lender’s right to cure a default as<br />

described above is limited, with respect to the Libra Whole Loan, to: (i) 2 consecutive cures (or 3 consecutive<br />

cures if the last cure relates only to the relevant Subordinate Tranche); or (ii) 4 cures in total during the life of<br />

the senior tranche (or 6 in total, but only if 2 cures relate solely to the Subordinate Debt).<br />

For as long as a Subordinate Lender is exercising a cure right: (i) payments received on the Libra Whole<br />

Loan will be allocated as if no event of default had occurred; (ii) the related Libra Whole Loan will not be<br />

93


deemed to be a Specially Serviced Loan (but solely to the extent that the Servicing Transfer Event relates<br />

specifically to the matters being cured) or accelerated, nor will enforcement action in relation to the Libra<br />

Whole Loan be taken; and (iii) no Special Servicing Fee will accrue on the Libra Whole Loan. If a Subordinate<br />

Lender makes a cure payment, it will be reimbursed after amounts due on the Senior Debt have been paid.<br />

In no event will any Subordinate Lender’s cure rights limit the rights of the Servicer or the Special Servicer<br />

to issue default notices to, and seek payment from, the Borrower and any other Obligor under the Libra Whole<br />

Loan or prevent the Issuer from collecting default interest or late charges from the Borrower or sending a notice<br />

of default to the Borrower.<br />

Purchase Right of Subordinate Lenders: If a Purchase Event of Default occurs with respect to the Libra<br />

Whole Loan, the Subordinate Lenders may purchase any portion of the Libra Whole Loan ranking more senior<br />

to that Subordinate Lender’s loan, including, the Senior Debt from the Issuer, in an amount equal to the<br />

principal amount thereof, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon, outstanding expenses, plus any<br />

amount of outstanding Servicing Advances made with respect to the Libra Loan and all accrued and unpaid<br />

Servicing Fees or Special Servicing Fees allocable to the Libra Loan. For these purposes, a “Purchase Event of<br />

Default” means (i) the occurrence of a Servicing Transfer Event as a result of a payment Loan Event of Default<br />

(pursuant to item (b) of the definition of Servicing Transfer Event); (ii) an insolvency Loan Event of Default,<br />

after the occurrence of any event that causes the Libra Whole Loan to become a Specially Serviced Loan; (iii)<br />

the commencement of enforcement proceedings by or on behalf of the lenders; (iv) the relevant Subordinate<br />

Lender ceasing to be the Controlling Party with regard to the Libra Whole Loan or (v) an acceleration of the<br />

Libra Whole Loan.<br />

Rights of Controlling Party: The Servicer and Special Servicer will, prior to the occurrence of a<br />

Subordinate Lender Control Valuation Event, be required to obtain the consent of the relevant Controlling Party<br />

prior to making certain modifications to the terms of, or take actions in respect of, the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

However, no right of a Controlling Party to consent to a particular matter can oblige the Servicer or Special<br />

Servicer to refrain from taking any action that would violate the law of any relevant jurisdiction or be, in the<br />

reasonable opinion of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, inconsistent with the Servicing<br />

Standard. See “Servicing—The Controlling Party” below. In addition, neither the Servicer nor the Special<br />

Servicer shall have any liability to any other entity for any action taken, or for refraining from taking any action,<br />

or for giving any consent, or for refraining from giving any consent in accordance with any directions or<br />

instructions given by the Controlling Party or a Subordinate Lender to the Servicer or, as the case may be, the<br />

Special Servicer.<br />

Transfer of Subordinate Debt: A Subordinate Lender may not transfer its interest in any Subordinate Debt<br />

(or any part thereof) to any person unless the transferee accedes to the Senior Intercreditor Deed and the<br />

transferee is a qualifying lender under the Senior Intercreditor Deed.<br />

PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed<br />

General: On 15 January <strong>2007</strong> an intercreditor deed (a “PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed”) was entered<br />

into between the lenders under the Libra Whole Loan and the lenders under the PIK Facility Loan. The Issuer<br />

has acceded to the PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed.<br />

Subordination: Amounts due under the PIK Facility Loan are structurally subordinate to all payments due<br />

under the Libra Whole Loan. No amounts will be paid on the related PIK Facility Loan unless and until all<br />

amounts due on the Libra Whole Loan have been paid.<br />

Enforcement Rights: The charge over the Shares of the Borrower jointly secures the lenders under the Libra<br />

Whole Loan and the PIK Facility Loan. Pursuant to the terms of the PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed and subject<br />

to this share charge having become enforceable before debt due in respect of the Libra Whole Loan is<br />

discharged and subject to certain other conditions set out in the PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed, the Security<br />

Agent is permitted to give effect to any instructions it may receive from the majority of the PIK Facility Lenders<br />

to enforce this share charge. Otherwise, prior to the date on which the debt under the Libra Whole Loan has<br />

been discharged, the PIK Facility Lenders have undertaken in the PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed not to enforce<br />

the debt due under the PIK Facility Loan or take or omit to take any action whereby the ranking and/or the<br />

subordination of the debt under the PIK Facility Loan may be impaired.<br />

While the Security Agent and the Lenders of the Libra Whole Loan will be prevented from enforcing<br />

against the share charge should the PIK Facility Lender already have instructed the Security Agent to do so,<br />

94


there will be nothing to prevent the Lenders of the Libra Whole Loan from enforcing against any other security<br />

for the Libra Whole Loan, including the related Mortgages.<br />

Cure Rights of PIK Facility Lender: Pursuant to the terms of the PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed, the PIK<br />

Facility Lenders will have the right to cure a non-payment by the Borrower under the Libra Whole Loan within<br />

a period of five Business Days of notification of the non-payment by paying an amount equal to the relevant<br />

deficiency. In addition, the PIK Facility Lenders will have the right to cure any other Loan Event of Default<br />

within the time periods set forth in the related Loan Documents, with an allowance for additional time if such<br />

additional time would not, among other things, result in an additional material impairment to the use or<br />

operations of the Properties.<br />

For as long as any cure is being exercised with respect to the Libra Whole Loan: (i) payments allocable to<br />

the PIK Facility Loan will be allocated as if no event of default had occurred; and (ii) the Libra Whole Loan will<br />

not be deemed to be a Specially Serviced Loan or accelerated, nor will any enforcement action in relation to the<br />

Libra Whole Loan be commenced.<br />

In no event will any PIK Facility Lender’s cure rights limit the rights of the Servicer or the Special Servicer<br />

to send default notices to, and seek payment from, the related Borrower and any other obligor under the Libra<br />

Whole Loan or prevent the lender from collecting default interest or late charges from the related Borrower or<br />

sending a notice of default to such Borrower.<br />

Purchase Right of PIK Facility Lenders: If a PIK Facility Purchase Event of Default occurs with respect to<br />

the Libra Whole Loan, the relevant PIK Facility Lender may, at its sole discretion, purchase the Libra Whole<br />

Loan for an amount equal to the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest and outstanding expenses,<br />

unpaid interest on any Servicing Advances made with respect to the Libra Loan, the amount of any swap<br />

termination costs or swap credit charges arising in respect of the Swap Transactions (to the extent that any Swap<br />

Transaction may be terminable upon such purchase of the Libra Whole Loan) and all accrued and unpaid<br />

Servicing Fees or Special Servicing Fees allocable to the Libra Whole Loan. For these purposes, a “PIK<br />

Facility Purchase Event of Default” means the acceleration of the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

Rights of the PIK Facility Lender: The lenders of the Libra Whole Loan and the PIK Facility Loan have<br />

agreed not to make certain material modifications, waivers or consents to their respective loans without the<br />

consent of the other. Such modifications, waivers and consents include, but are not limited to:<br />

• any change (including a change in the rate of interest) in the amount of any payment under the Loan<br />

Documents that is not contemplated by the original terms thereof;<br />

• changing the timing of any payment under the Loan Documents (other than in connection with an<br />

enforcement of the related loan); or<br />

• any change related to any representation, warranty, undertaking or event of default, howsoever<br />

described or defined, under the related loan documents imposing an additional material obligation on<br />

any obligor or becoming more onerous in any material respect for an obligor.<br />

Notwithstanding the limitations above, the above restrictions will not prevent any such modification, waiver<br />

or consent in connection with a work-out or other surrender, compromise, release, renewal, or indulgence<br />

relating to the related loan during the existence of a default for which there is no longer a cure period.<br />

Transfer of PIK Facility Loan: The related PIK Facility Lender may not transfer its interest in the relevant<br />

PIK Facility Loan (or any part thereof) to any person unless the transferee accedes to the related PIK Facility<br />

Intercreditor Deed and the transferee is a qualifying lender under the related PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed.<br />

The Libra Properties<br />

Overview of the Properties: The portfolio of Properties comprises 294 freehold, part freehold and part<br />

leasehold and long leasehold healthcare properties and three staff accommodation properties located in England,<br />

Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. The interest held in 288 of the Properties, representing 96.5 per cent. of<br />

the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan<br />

Amount, are freehold. 234 of the freehold Properties, representing 77.2 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date<br />

Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount, are the<br />

subject of overriding leases which have been granted by and to members of the Borrower Group. The interest<br />

95


held in two of the Properties, representing 0.9 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance<br />

based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount, is part freehold and part leasehold. The<br />

interest in seven of the Properties, representing 2.6 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal<br />

Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount, is long leasehold (each, a “Leasehold<br />

Property”). The seven long leasehold and two part leasehold interests have been granted by freeholders which<br />

are outside the Borrower’s group. Accordingly, all other leasehold interests of any member of the Borrower<br />

Group (such as an Overriding Lease) have been granted by a Superior Landlord which is an Affiliate. The<br />

remaining term on the Leasehold Properties to expiry exceeds 111 years in all cases (with the exception of the<br />

Property at Priory Court which has a remaining term of approximately 89 years). All of the Properties are<br />

leased for use as care home facilities or, in the case of the Properties at 48 Princess Drive, 7 The Potlands and<br />

Willoughby Close, as staff accommodation.<br />

Title Matters: As discussed above, title investigation was based on Overview Reports other than with<br />

respect to those 88 Properties for which Certificates of Title were prepared. All of the Properties are held with<br />

absolute title (or the Scots or Northern <strong>Irish</strong> equivalent), with minor exceptions. A number of the Properties<br />

have been identified where title is subject to restrictive covenants or title conditions or other minor title defects.<br />

Generally, these restrictive covenants or title conditions limit the use of the relevant Properties for purposes<br />

other than as a care home and will therefore impact on future development of the Property and the ability to<br />

subject the relevant Property to alterations. Restrictive covenant indemnity insurance policies are in place to<br />

cover the risks relating to certain of the Properties, save where the risk was considered to be immaterial or<br />

unascertainable due to the nature of the title defect. In all cases where there is a breach or potential breach of a<br />

restrictive covenant the Borrower is not aware of any complaints or claims having been made in relation to<br />

breach of any such covenants. All consents necessary for the sale of the Properties to the relevant Property<br />

Owner, or the grant of each Occupational Lease and the creation of the Related Security were obtained. The<br />

Long Leasehold Properties (representing 2.6 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance<br />

based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount) in certain instances contain restrictions on the<br />

assignment, underletting and/or charging of the Leasehold Properties which are imposed by parties outside the<br />

Borrower Group.<br />

Overriding Leases: Overriding Leases have been granted to the Property Owners in respect of 241 of the<br />

Properties (representing 79.8 per cent. of the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the<br />

aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount) as shown in the table below. The Property Owner by whom<br />

the Overriding Lease was granted is a member of the Borrower Group.<br />

Properties pursuant to: (i) an Asset Administration Agreement (the “Management Agreement 1”) dated 10<br />

April 1997, between, amongst others, Propco 14, Propco 12, Propco 11 and the Managing Agent; (ii) an Asset<br />

Administration Agreement (the “Management Agreement 2”) dated 15 February 1999, between, among others,<br />

Propco 5, Propco 6, Propco 1, Propco 8 and the Managing Agent, as amended and restated on 15 September<br />

1999; and (iii) an Asset Administration Agreement (the “Management Agreement 3” and together with the<br />

Management Agreement 2 and the Management Agreement 1, the “Management Agreements”) dated 16<br />

November 1999, among others Propco 4, Propco 7, Propco 1, Propco 9 and the Managing Agent, as amended<br />

and restated on 23 October 2000.<br />

In its capacity as Managing Agent, Propco 10 has entered into a duty of care agreement, (the “Duty of Care<br />

Agreement”), dated 15 January <strong>2007</strong> with the Borrower, the Security Agent and each Property Owner, other<br />

than Propco 15. Pursuant to the Duty of Care Agreement the Managing Agent: (i) has agreed to ensure that<br />

upon receipt all Rental Income is promptly paid into the Collection Account; (ii) has agreed to ensure that all<br />

Rental Income is then paid into the Rent Account net of any amount due but without withholding, set-off or<br />

counterclaim; (iii) has agreed not to suspend the performance of any of its obligations under the Management<br />

Agreements unless it has given the Security Agent not less than 21 days’ prior written notice and a reasonable<br />

opportunity to remedy the causes of the suspension or termination; and (iv) has agreed with the Borrower and<br />

the Property Owners that if the Security Agent has given notice to the Borrower and the Managing Agent that<br />

96


the Related Security has become enforceable, the Security Agent may immediately terminate the Management<br />

Agreements, without prejudice to any amounts due and payable to the Managing Agent under the Management<br />

Agreements prior to the date of termination.<br />

Description of the Occupational Leases for the Principal Tenant<br />

86.7 per cent. of the Properties, based upon the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based<br />

upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan Amount, are leased to the Principal Tenant. Each such<br />

Property is subject to a separate lease (each, a “Principal Tenant Lease”). However, all of the Principal Tenant<br />

Leases are on the same terms. The following is a summary of the principal terms and conditions of the Principal<br />

Tenant Leases.<br />

Tenant: The Principal Tenant of any Principal Tenant Lease, is Southern Cross Healthcare Group PLC or<br />

an Affiliate thereof. Each Principal Tenant Lease is granted by a Property Owner to the Principal Tenant.<br />

Financial Statement Principal Tenant: The information below relating to the Principal Tenant has been<br />

between 2006 and 2005 between assets and liabilities were only available based upon UK GAAP, while comparisons of turnover and profit/(loss) were<br />

only availably under IFRS.<br />

Guarantor: Each Principal Tenant Lease is guaranteed by Southern Cross Bidco <strong>Limited</strong>.<br />

Term: The Occupational Lease terms vary between 24 years and 34 years from the dates on which they<br />

were granted in 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000 or 2006. On the expiry of the original term, a further term<br />

expiring on 29 May 2041 (with a rent free period of two months at the commencement of the term of the new<br />

lease) has been agreed (subject, in the case of the Properties in Scotland, to either the relevant landlord or<br />

Tenant exercising an option to that effect).<br />

97


Rent: The aggregate rent is £58,397,666. The initial rents include an index-linked element and will be<br />

adjusted (i) annually by multiplying 1.025 by the annual rent, excluding three properties providing staff<br />

accommodation, (ii) an open market review in 2020 on normal rent review terms and (iii) an open market rent<br />

review in 2035. Rent is payable without deductions or set-off monthly in advance on the first day of each month<br />

(the “Rent Payment Dates”) in every year of the term.<br />

Interest on Late Rent: Interest, calculated as base rate plus an additional percentage, is payable from time to<br />

time (or such other comparable rate as the landlord may reasonably and properly designate if the base rate<br />

ceases to be published) on the principal rents, if such rent is not paid on the Rent Payment Date (for the<br />

avoidance of doubt, there is no grace period).<br />

Rents Net of Additional Charges, Costs and Expenses: The Principal Tenant is responsible for the payment<br />

of all existing and future rates, duties, charges, assessments, impositions and other outgoings.<br />

Repairs: The Principal Tenant is to keep the Property in good and substantial repair throughout the term of<br />

the Principal Tenant Lease. The fixtures and fittings and equipment are to be kept in good and substantial<br />

working order and in such condition as being capable of immediately being let for a term of 25 years for the<br />

Approved Use.<br />

Alterations: The Principal Tenant may not make any alterations or additions without the landlord’s consent<br />

and substantial repairs require consent to a specification. All structural alterations are prohibited.<br />

Where alterations may be made these will be subject to the Principal Tenant’s entry into a licence for<br />

alterations in such form as the landlord may reasonably require.<br />

In relation to all works carried out at the Property by the Principal Tenant there are additional requirements<br />

concerning the manner of carrying out and standards to which such works must be completed and obtaining<br />

statutory consents and approvals.<br />

Reinstatement: All alterations or additions, if the landlord requires, are to be reinstated at the end (or sooner<br />

determination) of the term, in doing so well and substantially reinstating the Property.<br />

Tenant Right to Purchase: In relation to 49 Properties situated in England and Wales, 15 Properties<br />

situated in Scotland and four Properties situated in Northern Ireland, collectively representing 25.6 per cent. of<br />

the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan Principal Balance based upon the aggregate Cut-Off Date Allocated Loan<br />

Amount, if the landlord is required by law to charge VAT on the rent payable by the Principal Tenant, which the<br />

Principal Tenant is unable to recover, then in accordance with an agreed formula (being either the open market<br />

value of the Property or a multiplier of 16x the annual rent payable by the Principal Tenant, whichever is the<br />

higher) the Principal Tenant may purchase the interest of the landlord.<br />

Permitted Use: The permitted use under the Principal Tenant Lease is to use as a nursing home and must<br />

comply with the operational guidance on management of registered nursing homes. In addition, such use must<br />

be in line with the statutory requirements of the Care Standards Act 2000 or (in Scotland) the Regulation of Care<br />

(Scotland) Act 2001. The permitted business may only be operated with a valid registration certificate required<br />

under the Care Standards Act 2000 or (in Scotland) the Regulation of Care (Scotland) Act 2001.<br />

Assignment and Underletting: Transfer of part of the Property by the Principal Tenant is prohibited.<br />

Transfer of the whole Property is only permitted by the Principal Tenant to a respectable and responsible person<br />

already operating a registered nursing home, who may be required to provide a rent deposit and a surety if the<br />

prospective tenant cannot satisfy the requirements of being “substantial” (substantial being defined as satisfying<br />

an EBITDAR of at least twice the rent for the previous three years and having net assets on its balance sheet at<br />

the end of the latest fiscal quarter of at least £35,000,000). Underletting of the premises is not permitted.<br />

The Principal Tenant may mortgage or secure the whole (but not part) of the Principal Tenant Lease.<br />

The Principal Tenant may not hold the Property (or any part) on trust for any person.<br />

Operating Requirements: The Principal Tenant must provide the relevant landlord with four-weekly<br />

simplified trading accounts relating to its financial performance relating to matters such as the number of<br />

Registered Beds, occupancy, turnover, staff and other costs, repairs and maintenance.<br />

98


Insurance: The landlord is to insure (but the Principal Tenant may do so at the cost of the landlord if the<br />

landlord does not) with an insurance company. Under the terms of the Principal Tenant Lease the landlord<br />

recovers the costs of insurance from the Principal Tenant.<br />

Following any damage to or destruction of the Property by an insured risk the landlord shall (subject to<br />

obtaining necessary consents) diligently and as soon as reasonably practicable reinstate and must apply the<br />

proceeds of any insurance covering reinstatement and rebuilding costs for those purposes. The landlord must<br />

make good any deficiency in the insurance proceeds from its own resources. Either the landlord or the Principal<br />

Tenant may after three years following destruction of the Property if the Property has not been reinstated (or<br />

sooner at the landlord’s option if it is impractical to reinstate), serve notice terminating the Principal Tenant<br />

Lease. The insurance proceeds will remain the absolute property of the landlord. Where the Principal Tenant is<br />

prevented from using the Property due to destruction by any of the insured risks, the annual rent shall be<br />

suspended for the period of three years or (whichever is the shorter) to the date of reinstatement.<br />

The Principal Tenant has in place a group policy statement applying to the risks arising from the application<br />

to it of the Asbestos Regulations 2002.<br />

Equipment: The landlord has a debenture over the Principal Tenant’s fixtures and fittings with the right to<br />

purchase them for a nominal £1 at the end of the term or if it is likely that an event of insolvency will occur in<br />

relation to the Principal Tenant.<br />

Forfeiture: The landlord may forfeit, or (in Scotland) irritate, the Principal Tenant Lease (subject (except in<br />

Scotland) to certain rights for relief which the Courts may grant the Principal Tenant) on: (a) giving not less than<br />

21 days’ written notice to the Principal Tenant for non-payment of the principal rent (whether or not formally<br />

demanded); or (b) giving reasonable notice to the Principal Tenant that the Principal Tenant has failed to remedy<br />

a breach of covenant (except insolvency); or (c) an event of insolvency occurring in relation to the Principal<br />

Tenant.<br />

Additional Information<br />

The description in this Offering Circular of the Libra Loan is based upon the Libra Loan as at the close of<br />

business on the Cut-Off Date, as adjusted for any principal repayments on the Libra Loan on or before the Cut-<br />

Loan Sale Agreement<br />

Acquisition of the Libra Loan: On 3 April <strong>2007</strong>, the Libra Whole Loan was transferred from CS Funding 1<br />

<strong>Limited</strong>, which was the “Original Lender”, to Libra <strong>2007</strong> (<strong>NHP</strong>) <strong>Limited</strong>, the “Loan Seller”. On the Closing<br />

Date, the Issuer will acquire the Libra Loan from the Loan Seller pursuant to the Loan Sale Agreement. The<br />

purchase price under the Loan Sale Agreement will be paid to the Loan Seller on the Closing Date.<br />

Representations and Warranties: None of the Issuer nor the Note Trustee has made (or will make) any of<br />

the enquiries, searches or investigations which a prudent purchaser of the relevant assets would normally make<br />

in relation to the Libra Loan or any Related Security. In addition, neither the Issuer nor the Note Trustee has<br />

made or will make any enquiry, search or investigation at any time in relation to compliance by the Loan Seller,<br />

the Servicer, the Special Servicer or any other person with respect to the provisions of the Loan Sale Agreement,<br />

the Servicing Agreement, the Deed of Charge and Assignment or in relation to any applicable laws or the<br />

execution, legality, validity, perfection, adequacy or enforceability of the Libra Loan or any Related Security<br />

purchased on the Closing Date.<br />

In relation to all of the foregoing matters concerning the Libra Loan and any Related Security and the<br />

circumstances in which the advances were made to the Borrower, prior to the transfer of the Libra Loan to the<br />

Issuer, each of the Issuer and the Note Trustee will rely entirely on the representations and warranties given by<br />

each of the Loan Seller, the Original Lender and the Loan Arranger to the Issuer and the Note Trustee pursuant<br />

to the Loan Sale Agreement.<br />

The Loan Arranger will be required, if there has been a breach of any of the warranties under the Loan Sale<br />

Agreement that materially and adversely affects the value of the Libra Loan or the Notes and such breach is not<br />

capable of remedy, or, if capable of remedy, has not been remedied within 90 days of the Servicer or the Special<br />

Servicer notifying the Loan Arranger of such breach (or such longer period as the Issuer, the Servicer, the<br />

Special Servicer (in the case of the Libra Whole Loan becoming a Specially Serviced Loan) may agree, based<br />

on written confirmation from S&P and Fitch (following notification to all of the Rating Agencies) that no<br />

Adverse Rating Event will occur as a result of any such extended period or, if a Rating Agency has notified the<br />

Servicer or the Special Servicer that, as a matter of policy, it will not issue such a confirmation, the Servicer or<br />

the Special Servicer as applicable, determines that such extension would not be inconsistent with the Servicing<br />

Standard), to repurchase (or participate in) the Libra Loan from the Issuer. In the event the Loan Arranger is<br />

required to repurchase the Libra Loan, the repurchase price to be paid by the Loan Arranger will be an amount<br />

equal to 100 per cent. of the outstanding principal balance of the Libra Loan, plus accrued interest and<br />

outstanding expenses plus any amount of outstanding Servicing Advances and P&I Advances (including<br />

interest) made with respect to the Libra Loan and all accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees or Special Servicing<br />

Fees allocable to the Libra Loan. Any such repurchase (or participation) would result in a redemption of the<br />

Notes in accordance with Condition 6(b) (Mandatory Redemption from Principal Distribution Amounts,<br />

Sequential Principal Distribution Amounts and Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amounts).<br />

The representations and warranties will be made by the Loan Arranger as of the date on which the Libra<br />

Whole Loan was transferred and assigned to the Issuer. These representations and warranties include, without<br />

limitation (but subject to disclosure in the Loan Sale Agreement and to certain jurisdiction-specific differences<br />

and as disclosed in this Offering Circular), statements to the following effect:<br />

101


(a) The Libra Loan carries a right to payment of principal in an amount not less than the relevant purchase<br />

price paid for the Libra Loan by the Issuer (subject to certain minor adjustments in respect of accrued<br />

interest on the Libra Loan).<br />

(b) Interest is charged on the Libra Loan at such a rate as may be determined in accordance with the<br />

provisions of the Credit Agreement.<br />

(c) Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower is not entitled to exercise any right of setoff<br />

(except to the extent permitted by law) against the Original Lender or the Loan Seller, as the case<br />

may be, in respect of any amount that is payable under the Libra Loan (other than in respect of amounts<br />

retained as reserves in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement).<br />

(d) The Libra Whole Loan contains no obligation of the Original Lender or the Loan Seller to make any<br />

further advance which remains unperformed on the Closing Date and no part of any advance pursuant<br />

to the Libra Loan has been retained by the Original Lender or the Loan Seller pending compliance by<br />

the Borrower or any other party with any other conditions (other than amounts retained as reserves in<br />

accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement).<br />

(e) The Original Lender, the Loan Seller or the Security Agent, as applicable, has, since the creation of the<br />

Libra Loan, kept or caused to be kept full and proper accounts, books and records showing all<br />

transactions, payments, receipts, proceedings and notices relating to the Libra Whole Loan and which<br />

are complete and accurate in all material respects. All such accounts, books and records are up to date<br />

and are held by, or to the order of, the Original Lender, the Loan Seller or, as the case may be, the<br />

Security Agent.<br />

(f) With the exception of three Properties used for staff accommodation, each Property is a property used<br />

predominantly for the provision of healthcare and is either freehold, heritable title or long leasehold or,<br />

in the case of two Properties, part freehold and part leasehold.<br />

(g) In relation to each Property, the relevant Property Owner had, as at the date of the relevant Mortgage,<br />

subject to matters disclosed in the due diligence conducted by the Loan Arranger in relation to the same<br />

(in the case of Properties in England and Wales and Northern Ireland), a good and marketable title to<br />

either title absolute or a term of years absolute in that Property, or (in the case of Properties in<br />

Scotland) a valid and marketable title to that Property, duly registered or recorded in the Registers of<br />

Scotland (with no exclusion of indemnity in the case of registered titles) and, together, the Property<br />

Owners in respect of each Property are the legal and beneficial owners of such Property.<br />

(h) Each Property was, as at the date of each Related Security, held by the relevant Property Owner free<br />

(save for such Related Security) from any encumbrances which would materially adversely affect such<br />

title, or the value for mortgage purposes set out in the most recent valuation in respect of the relevant<br />

Property given by a valuer in connection with the Libra Loan, prior to the advancing of the Libra<br />

Whole Loan (including any encumbrance contained in any leases relevant to such Properties).<br />

(i) The Loan Arranger is not aware of any circumstances giving rise to a material reduction in the value of<br />

any Property since the most recent valuation in respect of such Property referred to in paragraph (h)<br />

above, other than market forces affecting the values of properties comparable to the relevant Property<br />

in the area where the relevant Property is located.<br />

(j) The Libra Loan and the Related Security constitute the valid and binding obligations of, and are<br />

enforceable against, the Borrower and each Obligor (subject to general principles of law limiting the<br />

same).<br />

(k) Subject, in the case of Mortgages required to be registered or recorded at (as applicable) the Land<br />

Registry in England and Wales, or the Registers of Scotland, or the Land Registry of Northern Ireland<br />

or Registry of Deeds for Northern Ireland, and subject to such registration or recording, and to general<br />

principles of law limiting the same, each Mortgage is a valid and subsisting first charge by way of legal<br />

mortgage or (as applicable) first ranking standard security on the Property to which the Mortgage<br />

relates, and as set out in this paragraph, in all cases (other than in Scotland, where priority periods do<br />

not apply) application for registration has been or will be made within the relevant priority period such<br />

that the security or title will, upon registration, be subject only to the matters revealed in the relevant<br />

Report on Title.<br />

102


(l) Subject as set out in paragraph (k) above:<br />

(i) the Security Agent has a good and marketable title to the Mortgages at law, subject to paragraph<br />

(cc) below, and all things necessary to complete the Security Agent’s title to such Mortgages have<br />

been done or are in the process of being done; and<br />

(ii) the Security Agent is (subject to necessary registrations and recordings to the extent set forth in<br />

paragraph (cc) below) the legal, and the Loan Seller is the beneficial, owner of the Mortgages, free<br />

and clear of all material encumbrances, overriding interests (in each case, other than those to which<br />

each relevant Property is subject), claims and equities and there were at the time of completion of<br />

the relevant Mortgage, no adverse entries of encumbrances or applications for adverse entries of<br />

encumbrances against any title at the Land Registry in England, or (as applicable) the Registers of<br />

Scotland, Land Registry of Northern Ireland or Registry of Deeds for Northern Ireland, to any<br />

relevant Property which would rank in priority to the Security Agent’s or the Loan Seller’s<br />

interests therein.<br />

(m) The Loan Seller is the legal and beneficial (subject to any necessary registrations) owner of the Libra<br />

Loan free and clear of all encumbrances (other than those to which each Property is subject) and<br />

claims.<br />

(n) The legal and beneficial right, title and interest of the Loan Seller in the Libra Loan and the legal and<br />

beneficial right, title and interest in the Related Security may be assigned, pledged or, as the case may<br />

be, transferred absolutely, or, as the case may be, by operation of law or pursuant to the Loan<br />

Documents, otherwise transferred to the Issuer.<br />

(o) Immediately prior to advancing the Libra Whole Loan, the Properties charged as security therefore<br />

were valued for the Loan Arranger by an independent, qualified surveyor or valuer appointed by the<br />

Loan Arranger (on the basis of 50 sample full property inspections and, in addition, 187 sample<br />

external inspections) and the principal amount advanced under the Libra Whole Loan at the date of<br />

such advance did not exceed 87.6 per cent. of the amount of the Valuation.<br />

(p) Prior to advancing the Libra Whole Loan, the Loan Arranger engaged an environmental consultant to<br />

conduct at least a Stage 1 survey of the Properties. The results of such environmental survey did not<br />

disclose any material violation of applicable environmental laws prior to the origination of the Libra<br />

Whole Loan or the Closing Date in respect of which: (i) an operations and maintenance plan was not<br />

established by the Borrower; (ii) a reserve was not established to remedy the relevant violation; or (iii)<br />

all steps required to cure such violation were not taken.<br />

(q) Prior to making the advance under the Libra Whole Loan, Reports on Title (excluding the Subsequent<br />

Certificates of Title) were prepared by lawyers who addressed such reports to the Loan Arranger and<br />

the Security Agent, which disclosed nothing which caused the Loan Arranger to decline to proceed<br />

with the advance on its agreed terms.<br />

(r) As at the Closing Date, to the best of the Loan Arranger’s knowledge:<br />

(i) each Property is covered by a buildings insurance policy maintained by the relevant Obligor or<br />

another person with an interest in the relevant Property on a full reinstatement basis and against the<br />

risks and to the extent recommended in the insurance due diligence report provided in connection<br />

with the Libra Whole Loan prior to the advancing of the Libra Whole Loan;<br />

(ii) the Security Agent has been named as a co-insured in respect of each such policy or otherwise its<br />

interest has been noted on the policy;<br />

(iii) the relevant insurance policy for each relevant Property provides cover in respect of at least three<br />

years’ loss of rent; and<br />

(iv) the Loan Arranger has not received and (so far as the Loan Arranger is aware) nor has the Security<br />

Agent received written notice that any such insurance policy is about to lapse on account of failure<br />

by the relevant entity maintaining such insurance to pay the relevant premia.<br />

(s) None of the Loan Seller, Original Lender or Loan Arranger has received written notice and to their<br />

knowledge (without having made any specific enquiries) neither the Borrower nor any Obligor is in<br />

103


ankruptcy, liquidation, receivership, administration, illiquidity, over-indebtedness or pending<br />

illiquidity or has filed for insolvency under any applicable law, nor has any winding up or<br />

administrative order or dissolution been made by or against any of them.<br />

(t) Since the date of origination of the Libra Whole Loan, no amount of principal or interest due from the<br />

Borrower has, at any time, been more than 14 days overdue at the date hereof.<br />

(u) There is no monetary default, nor is the Loan Arranger aware of any other breach or violation under the<br />

Loan Documents which has not been remedied, cured or waived or of any outstanding default, breach<br />

or violation by the Borrower under any Related Security (including the relevant Mortgage) or the Libra<br />

Loan therefor or of any outstanding event which with the giving of notice or lapse of any applicable<br />

grace period would constitute such a default, breach or violation.<br />

(v) The Original Lender and Loan Seller have performed in all material respects all of their respective<br />

obligations under or in connection with the Libra Loan and so far as the Loan Arranger is aware neither<br />

has received any written notice from the Borrower or any other Obligor in respect of any action or<br />

threatened action against the Original Lender or the Loan Seller or the Security Agent for any material<br />

failure on the part of the Original Lender or the Loan Seller or the Security Agent under the Libra Loan<br />

or any Related Security to perform any such obligations.<br />

(w) None of the Loan Arranger, the Original Lender or the Loan Seller has received written notice of any<br />

litigation or claim calling into question in any material respect the Original Lender’s, the Loan Seller’s<br />

or the Security Agent’s title to the Libra Loan or its Related Security (including the relevant Mortgage),<br />

save for notification received by the Loan Arranger relating to certain matters involving Propco 1 and<br />

Propco 13, in relation to a subsidiary of which they have disposed, and the related properties.<br />

(x) As at the Closing Date, none of the Loan Arranger, the Original Lender or the Loan Seller has received<br />

written notice of any default that has not been remedied or forfeiture or irritancy of any Occupational<br />

Lease granted in respect of a Property which would render the relevant Property unacceptable as<br />

security for a Loan secured by the Security Agreements in respect of that Property in accordance with<br />

the then applicable lending criteria of the Loan Arranger.<br />

(y) None of the provisions of the Libra Whole Loan or any Related Security (including the relevant<br />

Mortgage) have been waived, altered or modified in any material respect since it was entered into,<br />

except as set out in the Loan Documents.<br />

(z) To the best of the Loan Arranger’s knowledge (having made no investigation of the Borrower<br />

following origination of the Libra Whole Loan made to it) there is no outstanding indebtedness in<br />

respect of the Borrower secured by the Related Property other than: (i) the Libra Whole Loan, (ii) debt<br />

which is fully subordinate to the Libra Whole Loan and (iii) debt incurred in the ordinary course of the<br />

Borrower’s business.<br />

(aa) To the best of the Loan Arranger’s actual knowledge (as a commercial property lender only and not, for<br />

the avoidance of doubt, as a valuer, and having made no investigations), no valuation given by a valuer<br />

in connection with the Libra Loan, its Related Security and the relevant Mortgage was fraudulently<br />

undertaken by the Valuer.<br />

(bb) To the best of the Loan Arranger’s knowledge, having made no investigation of the relevant title, no<br />

Report on Title was fraudulently prepared by the relevant lawyer who prepared the same.<br />

(cc) In relation to any Mortgage where the relevant Security Agent’s title to such Mortgage has not been<br />

perfected, the Security Agent has as of the Closing Date taken all reasonable steps in each relevant<br />

jurisdiction to perfect its title to the Mortgage, or has an absolute right to be registered or recorded as<br />

proprietor or registered owner in each relevant jurisdiction of the Mortgage, as first mortgagee or<br />

heritable creditor of the interest in the relevant Property, which is subject to that Mortgage.<br />

(dd) As at the Closing Date, in respect of each leasehold Property:<br />

(i) any requisite consent of the landlord under any long leasehold, and any required notice to the<br />

landlord of, the creation of the relevant Related Security has been obtained or given and placed<br />

with the title deeds, and no long lease for the Property contains any provision whereby it may be<br />

104


forfeited or irritated on bankruptcy or liquidation of the lessee or on any other ground except<br />

breach of covenant of the Tenant’s obligations or the non-payment of rent by the lessee;<br />

(ii) the terms of the long leases do not expire earlier than approximately 87 years after the Loan<br />

Maturity Date, excluding extension of the Libra Loan, being the earliest and approximately 987<br />

years being the latest (excluding the long lease with respect to the Property at Cedarhurst Lodge<br />

with a lease term of 9,000 years, starting on 1 February 1994);<br />

(iii) all other terms of any long lease are such that, in light of all of the circumstances pertaining to the<br />

Libra Loan and the Related Security, the Loan Arranger regarded them as acceptable for the<br />

purposes of comprising security for the Libra Loan; and<br />

(iv) the Loan Arranger has not received written notice of any material unremedied breaches of any long<br />

lease.<br />

No warranties other than those set out in the Loan Sale Agreement will be given by the Loan Arranger in<br />

relation to any Related Security given by the Borrower and the other Obligors (as applicable). Therefore, except<br />

to the extent of the aforementioned warranty, there can be no assurance that there will be any Related Security<br />

for the Libra Loan or, if there is, that such Related Security will be of any value in connection with the<br />

enforcement of the Libra Loan or will realise any moneys which can be applied in satisfaction of any amounts<br />

outstanding from the Borrower under the Libra Loan.<br />

105


THE STRUCTURE OF THE ACCOUNTS<br />

The Libra Tranching Account<br />

Payments in respect of accrued interest, principal, fees and payments to the Swap Provider under the Credit<br />

Agreement will be made from the account established by the Security Agent with the Operating Bank pursuant<br />

to the Senior Intercreditor Deed (the “Libra Tranching Account”) by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as<br />

applicable, in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in the Credit Agreement and the Senior<br />

Intercreditor Deed.<br />

The Issuer’s Accounts<br />

Pursuant to a Cash Management Agreement to be dated on or about the Closing Date among, inter alios, the<br />

Issuer, the Note Trustee, the Cash Manager and the Operating Bank (the “Cash Management Agreement”), the<br />

Operating Bank will open and maintain an account (the “Collection Account”) in the name of the Issuer into<br />

which the Cash Manager or the Servicer, as applicable, will cause to be deposited, inter alia, all amounts<br />

collected on the Libra Loan and all Advances made by the Advance Provider or, as the case may be, the Backup<br />

Advance Provider under the Servicing Agreement.<br />

The Operating Bank will also open and maintain the following accounts (which may be sub-accounts of the<br />

Collection Account): (i) the “Class V Account”, into which will be deposited (a) £50,000 with respect to the<br />

Class V Notes on the Closing Date and (b) all amounts allocated to the Class V Account, as described in<br />

paragraph (a) below; and (ii) the “Class X Account” into which the Issuer will deposit £50,000 with respect to<br />

the Class X Notes on the Closing Date. The Collection Account, the Class V Account and the Class X Account<br />

are collectively referred to herein as, the “Issuer Accounts”.<br />

Certain Calculations: The Cash Manager will operate the Issuer Accounts in accordance with the terms of<br />

the Cash Management Agreement, using information given to it by the Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant<br />

to the Servicing Agreement.<br />

Prior to making any distributions on the Notes on any Payment Date, the Cash Manager will allocate all<br />

funds received with respect to the Libra Loan, any interest on or other net income earned from investments of<br />

funds held in the Issuer Accounts and certain amounts received from the Subordinate Lenders (representing cure<br />

payments or amounts owed to, inter alios, the Servicer and Special Servicer, in respect of fees and expenses), to<br />

the Class V Account and the Collection Account as follows:<br />

(a) To the Class V Account,<br />

(i) all Prepayment Charges and Yield Maintenance Premia with respect to the Libra Loan received<br />

during the Collection Period immediately preceding such Payment Date; and<br />

(ii) any interest earned on amounts deposited in the Collection Account, the Class V Account and the<br />

Class X Account or net income earned from Permitted Investments of such amounts during the<br />

Collection Period immediately preceding such Payment Date (in each case other than interest or<br />

net income earned in respect of prepayments or liquidation proceeds deposited into the Collection<br />

Account during such Collection Period).<br />

(b) To the Collection Account,<br />

(i) the “Principal Distribution Amount” for any Payment Date, which will be equal to the sum,<br />

without duplication, of the principal component of:<br />

(A) all payments, repayments (including any voluntary or mandatory principal prepayments or<br />

Balloon Payments) and amortisation due or deemed due in respect of the Libra Loan<br />

(including any payments in connection with the acceleration of the Libra Loan) and actually<br />

received during the Collection Period immediately preceding such Payment Date;<br />

(B) P&I Advances made by the Advance Provider or the Backup Advance Provider, as applicable,<br />

with respect to such Payment Date;<br />

106


(C) any payment made by the Loan Arranger to repurchase (or participate in) the Libra Loan<br />

pursuant to the Loan Sale Agreement during the Collection Period immediately preceding<br />

such Payment Date; and<br />

(D) to the extent not included above, any full or partial recoveries in respect of principal, net<br />

insurance proceeds, compulsory purchase proceeds and net enforcement or liquidation<br />

proceeds received in respect of the Libra Loan during the Collection Period immediately<br />

preceding such Payment Date (including the principal component of any payment received in<br />

connection with the sale of the Libra Loan pursuant to the Purchase Option or to a Subordinate<br />

Lender under the related Subordinate Debt, if applicable, in each case as described under<br />

“Servicing—Enforcement of the Libra Loan”);<br />

in any case due or deemed due and actually received during the Collection Period related to such<br />

Payment Date; provided that after an enforcement of the security granted pursuant to the Deed of<br />

Charge and Assignment in accordance with its terms, all amounts remaining as Available Funds in<br />

the Collection Account will be considered Principal Distribution Amounts;<br />

(ii) any interest or net income earned on any prepayments, Break Costs or liquidation proceeds<br />

deposited into the Collection Account during the Collection Period immediately preceding such<br />

Payment Date;<br />

(iii) any and all interest earned on the Libra Loan, all amounts received under the Basis Swap<br />

Transaction, the interest component of all P&I Advances made by the Advance Provider or the<br />

Backup Advance Provider under the Servicing Agreement, and any other amounts received (other<br />

than amounts allocated to the Class V Account as provided in paragraph (a) above), including all<br />

Break Costs;<br />

(iv) any amounts representing the fees and expenses payable to the Servicer or Special Servicer or<br />

other party (other than the relevant Subordinate Lender), pursuant to the terms of the Senior<br />

Intercreditor Deed; and<br />

(v) any and all payments on account of the Swap Transactions that are payable to the Swap Provider<br />

under the terms of the Senior Intercreditor Deed (other than Swap Subordinated Amounts).<br />

The “Principal Prepayment Amount” for any Payment Date will be equal to the sum of: (without<br />

duplication) any voluntary or mandatory principal prepayments (including any premium received in connection<br />

with any property release) or Balloon Payment but excluding, in each case, amortisation actually received under<br />

the Libra Loan during the Collection Period related to such Payment Date.<br />

The “Principal Amortisation Amount” for any Payment Date will be equal to the Principal Distribution<br />

Amount for such Payment Date less the Principal Prepayment Amount for such Payment Date.<br />

The “Sequential Principal Distribution Amount” for any Payment Date will be equal to the excess of the<br />

Principal Distribution Amount received for the Libra Loan for such Payment Date over the Pro Rata Principal<br />

Prepayment Amount for such Payment Date.<br />

The “Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amount” and the “Pre-Trigger Sequential Principal<br />

Prepayment Amount” for any Payment Date will be equal to the lesser of:<br />

(a) 50 per cent. of the Principal Prepayment Amount for such Payment Date; or<br />

(b) 50 per cent. of an amount that, if applied against the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) as at such Payment Date would, after<br />

application of any Principal Amortisation Amount on such Payment Date, reduce such Principal<br />

Amount Outstanding to 50 per cent. of the Principal Amount Outstanding of the Notes (other than the<br />

Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) as at the Closing Date.<br />

Notwithstanding the foregoing if a Sequential Prepayment Trigger exists on the Determination Date<br />

immediately preceding such Payment Date, the Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amount and the Pre-Trigger<br />

Sequential Principal Prepayment Amount for such Payment Date will be zero.<br />

107


“Sequential Prepayment Trigger” means, on any Determination Date, the existence of any of the<br />

following:<br />

(a) a Material Loan Event of Default under the Credit Agreement relating to the Libra Loan; or<br />

(b) NAI Amounts have been allocated to any class of Notes since the Closing Date due to realised losses<br />

on the Libra Loan, or there has been a failure to pay interest when due on any Note; or<br />

(c) the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the Class<br />

V Notes) is less than or equal to 50 per cent. of the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) as at the Closing Date; or<br />

(d) a Note Event of Default has been declared and is outstanding.<br />

“Material Loan Event of Default” means any Loan Event of Default deemed by the Servicer or, with<br />

respect to a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer to be material on the basis of the Credit Agreement,<br />

which Loan Events of Default shall include, but not be limited to, any monetary event of default, insolvency (of<br />

a member of the Borrower Group or of the Principal Tenant), cross-default with other indebtedness, or certain<br />

breaches of representation. Upon the occurrence of a Material Loan Event of Default, the Servicer or the<br />

Special Servicer, as applicable, will be required to promptly notify the Cash Manager.<br />

Payment of Expenses: After allocating the amounts described above to the Issuer Accounts, the Cash<br />

Manager shall instruct the Operating Bank to make the following payments from amounts allocated to the<br />

Collection Account (as provided above) in priority to all other payments required to be made by the Issuer and<br />

on any day such payments are due:<br />

(a) any amounts of expenses due and payable by the Issuer in the ordinary course of its business properly<br />

payable to third parties (and not payable to a Periodic Fee Party or the Special Servicer) including its<br />

liability, if any, to corporation tax and/or value added tax;<br />

(b) any amounts on account of interest that accrued prior to the assignment of the Libra Loan to the Issuer<br />

Priority Amounts and Expenses Priority Amounts (such remaining amounts, the “Available Funds”), as set<br />

forth under “—Priority of Payments” and “—Distribution of the Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amount”<br />

below.<br />

Priority of Payments: On each Payment Date, including post-enforcement (except as otherwise provided<br />

below), payments from Available Funds in the Collection Account (excluding any Pro Rata Principal<br />

Prepayment Amount, which shall be distributed as described under “—Distribution of the Pro Rata Principal<br />

Prepayment Amount”), will be made by the Cash Manager in the following order of priority after payment of<br />

Revenue Priority Amounts and Expenses Priority Amounts (in each case only if and to the extent that payments<br />

or provisions of higher priority have been made in full) (the “Sequential Priority of Payments”):<br />

(i) first, to pay, pro rata, all interest due or overdue and payable on the Class A Notes and the Class X<br />

Notes together with any interest thereon, in accordance with the provisions of the Conditions and<br />

the Note Trust Deed;<br />

the portion of the Sequential Principal Distribution Amount distributed pursuant to all prior<br />

clauses, in accordance with the provisions of the Conditions and the Note Trust Deed;<br />

(vii) seventh, to pay that portion of the Class B Notes that represents any NAI Amounts previously<br />

allocated to such class;<br />

(viii) eighth, to pay all interest due or overdue and payable on the Class C Notes together with any<br />

interest thereon, in accordance with the provisions of the Conditions and the Note Trust Deed;<br />

(ix) ninth, to pay all principal due and payable on the Class C Notes in an amount up to the lesser of:<br />

110

(a) their Principal Amount Outstanding and (b) the Sequential Principal Distribution Amount, less<br />

the portion of the Sequential Principal Distribution Amount distributed pursuant to all prior<br />

clauses, in accordance with the provisions of the Conditions and the Note Trust Deed;<br />

(xvi) sixteenth, to pay that portion of the Class E Notes that represents any NAI Amounts previously<br />

allocated to such class;<br />

(xvii) seventeenth, to pay to the Advance Provider or, as the case may be, the Backup Advance Provider,<br />

(xviii) eighteenth, to pay any surplus to the Issuer and, if the directors of the Issuer so resolve, and the<br />

Issuer may lawfully do so, to pay dividends to shareholders in the Issuer.<br />

On any Payment Date, including post-enforcement, on which principal amounts are due and payable on the<br />

Class X Notes or the Class V Notes, the Cash Manager will instruct the Operating Bank to pay such amounts<br />

from the Class X Account and the Class V Account, respectively, in accordance with the Conditions and the<br />

Note Trust Deed. See “Terms and Conditions of the Notes—Condition 6”. On any Payment Date, including<br />

post-enforcement, on which interest is due and payable on the Class V Notes, such interest will be paid from the<br />

Class V Account in accordance with the Conditions and the Note Trust Deed. See “—Class V Account” and<br />

“Terms and Conditions of the Notes—Condition 5(c)”.<br />

To the extent that Available Funds on any Payment Date, after paying any interest then due and payable on<br />

the most senior class of Notes then outstanding (other than the Class V Notes), are insufficient to pay in full<br />

interest due on any outstanding class or classes of more junior-ranking Notes (other than the Class V Notes), the<br />

shortfall in the interest amount then due and payable will be paid, in accordance with the Sequential Priority of<br />

Payments, on one or more subsequent Payment Dates if Available Funds on such Payment Date or Payment<br />

Dates are sufficient to pay such amounts.<br />

Distribution of the Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amount: On each Payment Date prior to a Sequential<br />

Prepayment Trigger in respect of which the Principal Prepayment Amount is greater than zero, the Cash<br />

Manager will allocate and distribute Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amounts from Available Funds in the<br />

Collection Account pro rata to each class of Notes then outstanding (other than the Class X Notes and the Class<br />

V Notes) based upon the respective Principal Amount Outstanding of each such class of Notes and the aggregate<br />

Principal Amount Outstanding of the Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) on such<br />

Payment Date, in each case after taking into account application of (i) the Principal Amortisation Amount and<br />

(ii) the Pre-Trigger Sequential Principal Prepayment Amount for such Payment Date in accordance with the<br />

Sequential Priority of Payments.<br />

Class V Account: The Issuer will deposit £50,000 on the Closing Date into the Class V Account, which<br />

amount will be available to pay principal only on the Class V Notes as and when such principal becomes due in<br />

accordance with the Conditions and the Note Trust Deed to the extent that such principal has not been<br />

previously redeemed (as such balance may be reduced, the “Class V Deposit”). The Class V Deposit will be<br />

segregated from all other amounts deposited in the Class V Account and will not be available to pay interest on<br />

the Class V Notes at any time. Amounts allocated to the Class V Account, as described above under “—Certain<br />

Calculations”, if any, will be available to pay interest on the Class V Notes. The amount of interest due with<br />

respect to any Payment Date on the Class V Notes is equal to the interest accrued during the Interest Accrual<br />

Period expiring immediately before such Payment Date at the Class V Interest Rate on the principal amount<br />

outstanding of the Class V Notes. The Rate of Interest applicable to the Class V Notes for any Interest Accrual<br />

Period will be the Class V Interest Rate as calculated on the Interest Determination Date in respect of the<br />

Interest Accrual Period for which the rate will apply. The “Class V Interest Rate” for any Payment Date will<br />

be a per annum rate, expressed as a percentage, equal to the product of: (a) the fraction obtained by dividing: (i)<br />

the Class V Amounts Factor for the Class V Notes, by (ii) the actual number of days in the relevant Interest<br />

Accrual Period expiring immediately before such Payment Date; and (b) 365. The “Class V Amounts Factor”<br />

is, as of any Payment Date, equal to the amount expressed as a percentage obtained by dividing: (i) the Class V<br />

Amounts for the Interest Accrual Period expiring immediately before such Payment Date by (ii) the Principal<br />

Amount Outstanding of the Class V Notes as at the beginning of such period. The “Class V Amounts” in<br />

respect of the Payment Date immediately following the expiry of an Interest Accrual Period means the sum of:<br />

(i) all Prepayment Charges and Yield Maintenance Premia with respect to the Libra Loan received<br />

during the Collection Period immediately preceding such Payment Date; and<br />

111


(ii) any interest earned on amounts deposited in the Collection Account, the Class V Account and the<br />

Class X Account or net income earned from Permitted Investments of such amounts in each case<br />

during the Collection Period immediately preceding such Payment Date (in each case other than<br />

amounts earned in respect of prepayments (including Break Costs) or liquidation proceeds<br />

deposited into the Collection Account during such Collection Period).<br />

Class X Account: The Issuer will deposit £50,000 on the Closing Date into the Class X Account, which<br />

amount will be available to pay principal only on the Class X Notes as and when such principal becomes due in<br />

accordance with the Conditions and the Note Trust Deed. On each Determination Date, the Cash Manager shall<br />

transfer any interest earned on, or net income earned from Permitted Investments of, funds in the Class X<br />

Account during the related Collection Period to the Class V Account.<br />

An “Authorised Entity” is a bank or <strong>Europe</strong>an Union credit institution (i) the short-term unsecured,<br />

that in all cases such investments (i) will mature at least one business day prior to the next Payment Date; (ii) the<br />

short-term unsecured, unguaranteed and unsubordinated debt obligations of the issuing or guaranteeing entity or<br />

the entity with which the demand or time deposits are made (being a bank or licensed EU credit institution) are<br />

rated at least “A1+” by S&P, “F1+” by Fitch and “A1” (long term) and “Prime-1” (short term) by Moody’s; (iii)<br />

provide for principal to be repaid in respect of such investment which is at least equal to the price paid to<br />

purchase such investment and does not fall to be determined by reference to any formula or index and is not<br />

subject to any contingency; and (iv) qualifies as a Portfolio Interest Obligation or for some other exemption<br />

from United States withholding tax if such Permitted Investment is issued by a United States Eligible Institution.<br />

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTE TRUST DEED<br />

On the Closing Date a deed of charge and assignment (the “Deed of Charge and Assignment”) governed<br />

by English law or, to the extent applicable, Scots law, Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law or Jersey law, will be entered into,<br />

pursuant to which among other things the Issuer will grant security over its interest in the Libra Loan.<br />

The Note Trustee will be appointed pursuant to the Note Trust Deed to represent the interests of the<br />

Noteholders. The Note Trustee will agree to hold the benefit of the covenants of the Issuer contained in the<br />

Note Trust Deed on trust for itself and for the benefit of the Noteholders and the security created by or under the<br />

Deed of Charge and Assignment for the benefit of, inter alios, the Noteholders.<br />

Among other things, the Note Trust Deed:<br />

(a) sets out when, and the terms upon which, the Note Trustee will be entitled or obliged, as the case may<br />

be, to take steps to enforce the Issuer’s obligations under the Notes and certain other relevant<br />

documents or to enforce the security created by the Issuer under the Deed of Charge and Assignment;<br />

(b) contains various covenants of the Issuer relating to repayment of principal and payment of interest in<br />

113


DESCRIPTION OF THE SWAP TRANSACTIONS<br />

Swap Transactions<br />

The Libra Whole Loan is a floating rate mortgage loan. The Borrower has entered into an agreement with<br />

Credit Suisse International (the “Swap Provider”) in the form of an ISDA 1992 Master Agreement (the “Swap<br />

Agreement”). Pursuant to the Swap Agreement the Borrower has entered into the following swap transactions,<br />

each documented by respective confirmations:<br />

• One interest rate swap transaction for an aggregate notional amount of £1,172,000,000 and having an<br />

effective date of 15 January <strong>2007</strong> and a termination date of 15 January 2010 (the “Spot Swap”); and<br />

• One forward interest rate swap transaction for an aggregate notional amount of £1,172,000,000 and<br />

having an effective date of 15 January 2010 and a termination date of 15 January 2017 (the “Forward<br />

Swap”),<br />

(each of the Spot Swap and the Forward Swap, a “Swap Transaction” and collectively, the “Swap<br />

Transactions”). The termination date of the Spot Swap is the date on which the Libra Whole Loan would<br />

mature if the option to extend the maturity by one year from 15 January 2009 were to be exercised. The<br />

Forward Swap terminates on the Maturity Date of the Notes.<br />

In addition, on or before the Closing Date, the Issuer will enter into a swap agreement with the Swap<br />

Provider in the form of the ISDA 1992 Master Agreement (Multicurrency-Cross Border) (the “Basis Swap<br />

Agreement”). In relation to the Basis Swap Agreement, the Swap Provider has entered into a swap<br />

confirmation with respect to the Libra Loan (the “Basis Swap Confirmation”) evidencing the terms of such<br />

swap transaction (the “Basis Swap Transaction”), pursuant to which the Issuer will swap LIBOR as calculated<br />

on the reset date for amounts payable under the Libra Loan for LIBOR as calculated on the reset date for<br />

amounts payable in respect of the Notes. The Basis Swap Confirmation has an effective date of 15 April <strong>2007</strong><br />

and a termination date of 20 January 2010.<br />

Subject to the following, the Swap Provider is obliged only to make payments under the Basis Swap<br />

Transaction to the extent that the Issuer makes the corresponding payments thereunder. Furthermore, a failure<br />

by the Issuer to make timely payment of amounts due from it under the Basis Swap Transaction will constitute a<br />

default in respect of the relevant payment due under the relevant Basis Swap Transaction if such failure is not<br />

remedied on or before the third Business Day in respect of the Basis Swap Transaction following notice of such<br />

non-payment and entitle the relevant Swap Provider to terminate the Basis Swap Transaction.<br />

Depending on LIBOR at the relevant time(s), a payment may be due from the Issuer or the Borrower, as<br />

applicable, to the Swap Provider in connection with a termination or partial termination of a Swap Transaction<br />

or vice versa (a “Swap Termination Payment” and, with respect to the Spot Swap, the “Spot Swap<br />

Termination Payments”; and with respect to the Forward Swap, the “Forward Swap Termination<br />

Payments”). Any such Swap Termination Payment due to the Swap Provider in respect of the Swap<br />

Transaction entered into in respect of the Libra Whole Loan will be applied in the manner described in “The<br />

Structure of the Accounts” above. To the extent not paid by the Issuer or the Borrower, as applicable, Swap<br />

Termination Payments (other than Swap Subordinated Amounts) and payment of amounts or expenses due and<br />

payable to the Swap Provider, but excluding Forward Swap Subordinated Amounts, will be made in priority to<br />

all other payments required to be made by the Issuer on any day such payments are due as a Revenue Priority<br />

Amount. Forward Swap Subordinated Amounts are subordinated and are paid after payment of interest and<br />

principal on the Class A Notes and the Class X Notes (as to interest only). The amount of any Swap<br />

Termination Payment will depend upon current market rates at the time of termination of the Swap Agreement<br />

and can be substantial.<br />

“Forward Swap Subordinated Amounts” means any amount due to the Swap Provider under the Swap<br />

Agreement to the extent relating to the Forward Swap (but does not include Swap Subordinated Amounts).<br />

“Swap Subordinated Amounts” means any termination amount due to the Swap Provider as a result of a Swap<br />

Trigger or as a result of termination due to the occurrence of a Tax Event Upon Merger (as defined in the Swap<br />

Agreement). “Swap Trigger” means: (a) the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Swap<br />

Agreements) in respect of the Swap Provider; (b) the failure by the Swap Provider to comply with the<br />

requirements under the Swap Agreements in relation to loss of any Minimum Swap Provider Ratings; or (c) the<br />

occurrence of a Credit Event Upon Merger (as defined in the Swap Agreements) with regard to the Swap<br />

Provider.<br />

114


Each Swap Transaction and Basis Swap Transaction may be terminated in accordance with certain<br />

termination events and events of default (each, a “Swap Termination Event”), the most important of which are<br />

more particularly described below.<br />

An acceleration of the Libra Whole Loan as a result of a Loan Event of Default under the Credit Agreement<br />

for the Libra Whole Loan may result in the Swap Agreements being terminated. In addition, the prepayment or<br />

part prepayment of the Libra Loan will constitute an additional termination event.<br />

The Swap Provider will be obliged to make payments under the Swap Agreements and the Basis Swap<br />

Agreement without any withholding or deduction of taxes unless required by law. If any such withholding or<br />

deduction is required by law, the Swap Provider will be required to pay such additional amount as is necessary<br />

to ensure that the amount actually received by the Borrower will equal the full amount the Borrower would have<br />

received had no such withholding or deduction been required or, if such withholding or deduction is a<br />

withholding or deduction which will or would be or becomes the subject of any tax credit, allowance, set-off,<br />

repayment or refund to the Swap Provider, to use all reasonable endeavours to reach agreement to mitigate the<br />

incidence of tax on the Issuer and may transfer the swap to an affiliate to mitigate the same.<br />

The Swap Agreement and the Basis Swap Agreement provide or will provide, however, that if due to action<br />

taken by a relevant taxing authority or brought in a court of competent jurisdiction or any change in tax law the<br />

Swap Provider will, or there is a substantial likelihood that it will, on the next payment date, be required to pay<br />

additional amounts in respect of tax under the Swap Agreement and the Basis Swap Agreement or will, or there<br />

is a substantial likelihood that it will, receive payment from the other party from which an amount is required to<br />

be deducted or withheld for or on account of tax (a “Tax Event”), the Swap Provider will use its reasonable<br />

efforts to transfer its rights and obligations to another of its offices, branches or affiliates or a suitably rated third<br />

party to avoid the relevant Tax Event. If no such transfer can be effected, the Swap Agreement and the Basis<br />

Swap Agreement and the Swap Transaction and Basis Swap Transaction may be terminated. The Swap<br />

Agreement and the Basis Swap Agreement will contain certain other limited termination events and events of<br />

default which will entitle either party to terminate.<br />

As at the date hereof, Credit Suisse International has a rating assigned to its short-term, unsecured,<br />

unsubordinated and unguaranteed debt obligations of “A-1+” by S&P, “F-1+” by Fitch and “P-1” by Moody’s<br />

and to its long-term, unsecured, unsubordinated and unguaranteed debt obligations of “AA-” by S&P, “AA-” by<br />

Fitch and “Aa3” by Moody’s. If (i) the Swap Provider’s short-term, unsecured, unsubordinated and<br />

unguaranteed debt obligations cease to be rated at least “A-1” by S&P, “F-1” by Fitch and “Prime-1” by<br />

Moody’s or (ii) the Swap Provider’s long-term, unsecured, unsubordinated and unguaranteed debt obligations<br />

cease to be rated at least “A2” by Moody’s and “A+” by Fitch (the “Minimum Swap Provider Ratings” in<br />

respect of the Swap Provider) the relevant Swap Provider will be required under the Swap Agreement at its cost<br />

and within 30 Business Days, to either (a) post acceptable collateral, (b) transfer its rights and obligations to a<br />

Swap Provider as agreed by the Note Trustee or agent (which may be based upon confirmation from the related<br />

Rating Agency as to no Adverse Rating Event), or, with respect to S&P and Moody’s, with the Minimum Swap<br />

Provider Ratings or (c) obtain an acceptable guarantee; provided, however, that if (i) the relevant Swap<br />

Provider’s short-term obligations cease to be rated at least “F-2” by Fitch and “Prime-2” by Moody’s or (ii) the<br />

relevant Swap Provider’s long-term obligations cease to be rated at least “BBB-” by S&P, “BBB+” by Fitch or<br />

“A3” by Moody’s (a “Second Trigger Event”), the relevant Swap Provider must comply with (a) (within 30<br />

business days) and also make reasonable efforts to comply with (b) or (c) above. If the Swap Provider does not<br />

perform its obligations described above, this will constitute an additional termination event or, in the case of a<br />

Second Trigger Event, an event of default.<br />

Upon the occurrence of any termination of the Swap Transaction and Basis Swap Transaction (whether<br />

because of a downgrade by S&P, Fitch or Moody’s, as applicable, of the ratings of the Swap Provider or<br />

otherwise) the Servicer, or, if at the relevant time the Libra Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan, the<br />

Special Servicer is obliged pursuant to the Servicing Agreement to use efforts consistent with the Servicing<br />

Standard to enter into, or procure the entry into of, a replacement hedge transaction on identical terms to the<br />

Swap Transaction and Basis Swap Transaction, with another swap counterparty which has the relevant<br />

Minimum Swap Provider Ratings, within 30 days, unless S&P provide a written confirmation (following<br />

notification in writing of the relevant matter to all Rating Agencies) that no downgrade to the then current<br />

ratings of the Notes would occur as a result of the failure to do so.<br />

Credit Suisse International (“CSI”) was incorporated in England and Wales under the Companies Act 1985,<br />

on 9 May 1990, with registered No. 2500199 and was re-registered as an unlimited liability company under the<br />

name “Credit Suisse Financial Products” on 6 July 1990, and was renamed Credit Suisse First Boston<br />

worldwide. CSI has established a significant presence in global derivative markets through offering a full range<br />

of derivative products and continues to develop new products in response to the needs of its customers and<br />

changes in underlying markets. Effective 1 January, 2006, CSI is managed as a part of the Investment Banking<br />

division of Credit Suisse in the <strong>Europe</strong>, Middle East and Africa region, and prior to that time was managed as a<br />

SERVICING<br />

Introduction<br />

Pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, each of the Servicer and the Special Servicer will agree that in<br />

performing the services to be performed under the Servicing Agreement, it will do so in the best interests of and<br />

for the benefit of the Issuer and the Subordinate Lenders (as a collective whole, but taking into account the<br />

subordination of the Subordinate Debt), in accordance with the following requirements (together, the “Servicing<br />

Standard”), applying them in the following order of priority: (i) any and all applicable laws and regulations; (ii)<br />

the terms of the Loan Documents and the terms of the Senior Intercreditor Deed; and (iii) the terms of the<br />

Servicing Agreement and in furtherance thereof and to the extent consistent with such terms, in accordance with<br />

the higher of:<br />

(a) the manner in which, and with the same care, skill and diligence with which, it services and administers<br />

similar commercial mortgage loans for other third-party portfolios; or<br />

(b) the same care, skill and diligence which it would use if it were the owner of the Libra Whole Loan,<br />

in each case, giving due consideration to the timely collection of all scheduled payments of principal and<br />

interest under the Libra Whole Loan or, if the Libra Whole Loan comes into and continues in default, and if in<br />

the good faith and reasonable judgement of the Special Servicer, no satisfactory arrangements can be made for<br />

the collection of delinquent payments, the maximisation of the recovery on the Libra Whole Loan to the Lenders<br />

(as a collective whole, but taking into account the subordination of each Subordinate Lender to the Issuer which<br />

may result in a loss being suffered by the relevant Subordinate Lender in circumstances where the Issuer suffers<br />

no loss or a lesser loss) on a present value basis, but, in any case, without regard to any potential conflicts of<br />

interest specified in the following paragraph.<br />

Each of the Servicer and the Special Servicer is required to adhere to the above standards without regard to<br />

any fees or other compensation to which it is entitled, any relationship it or any other party may have with any<br />

party to the transactions contemplated in this Offering Circular, the ownership of any Note or any interest in the<br />

Subordinate Debt by the Servicer or the Special Servicer or any affiliate thereof or the ownership, servicing or<br />

management by the Servicer or the Special Servicer for others or itself of any other mortgage loans or<br />

properties. Each of the Servicer and the Special Servicer or any of its affiliates may become the owner or<br />

otherwise hold an interest in the Notes or the Subordinate Debt with the same rights as each would have if it<br />

were not the Servicer or the Special Servicer as the case may be. Any such interest of the Servicer or the<br />

Special Servicer in the Notes or the Subordinate Debt will not be taken into account by any person when<br />

evaluating whether actions of the Servicer or the Special Servicer were consistent with the above standards.<br />

Roles of the Servicer and the Special Servicer<br />

The Servicer will initially be responsible for the servicing and administration of the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

However, the following events with respect to the Libra Whole Loan will constitute a “Servicing Transfer<br />

Event”:<br />

(a) a payment default occurs on the Libra Whole Loan at its Loan Maturity Date and the Servicer or the<br />

Special Servicer, as applicable, does not extend the maturity of the Libra Whole Loan pursuant to the<br />

terms of the Servicing Agreement;<br />

(b) any payment by the Borrower on the Libra Whole Loan is greater than 60 days delinquent;<br />

(c) the Borrower or any Obligor has become subject to, entered into or consented to any insolvency,<br />

moratorium, administration, liquidation, receivership or similar procedures or proceedings;<br />

(d) the Servicer, Special Servicer or a Security Agent, as applicable, has received a notice of enforcement<br />

or proposed enforcement of, or realisation upon, any other charge on the related Property;<br />

(e) the Borrower or any Obligor notifies the applicable Security Agent, the Servicer or Special Servicer, as<br />

applicable, in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due or enters into an<br />

assignment for the benefit of its creditors;<br />

118


(f) except with respect to matters already addressed in paragraph (a) of this definition, the Servicer has<br />

received notice or has actual knowledge that the Borrower is in default beyond any applicable notice<br />

and/or grace periods in the performance or observance of any of its obligations under the related Loan<br />

Documents, the failure of which to cure, in the reasonable business judgement of the Servicer,<br />

exercised in accordance with the Servicing Standard, materially and adversely affects the interests of<br />

the Issuer and the Noteholders and, if applicable, the Subordinate Lenders; or<br />

(g) in the reasonable business judgement of the Servicer, exercised in accordance with the Servicing<br />

Standard, there is an imminent risk of (i) a default with respect to the Libra Loan consisting of the<br />

failure to make a quarterly payment or (ii) any other default that is likely to impair the use or<br />

marketability of any related Property or the value thereof as security for the Libra Loan, which default,<br />

in either case, is likely to remain or, in the case of defaults that have been cured by a Subordinate<br />

Lender, have remained unremedied by the Borrower for a period of 60 days or more, and in the case of<br />

defaults that are likely to remain uncured for 60 days or more the Servicer has received the written<br />

consent of the Controlling Party to declare that a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred with respect to<br />

the Libra Loan.<br />

Upon the occurrence of a Servicing Transfer Event, the Libra Whole Loan will become a “Specially<br />

Serviced Loan” and the Special Servicer will assume certain special servicing functions with respect to the<br />

Libra Whole Loan (and accordingly a Special Servicing Fee will be payable with regard to the Libra Whole<br />

Loan). However, the Libra Whole Loan may not become a Specially Serviced Loan (and no Special Servicing<br />

Fee will accrue on the Libra Whole Loan) at any time that a Subordinate Lender or the PIK Facility Lender is<br />

exercising, or is capable of exercising within the applicable cure period, its cure right pursuant to the Senior<br />

Intercreditor Deed or the PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed, but solely to the extent that such Servicing Transfer<br />

Event relates specifically to the matter being cured, as described under “Certain Characteristics of the Libra<br />

Loan and Properties—Senior Intercreditor Deed—Cure Rights of Subordinate Lender” and “Certain<br />

Characteristics of the Libra Loan and Properties—PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed—Cure Rights of PIK<br />

Facility Lender” above.<br />

After the Libra Whole Loan has become a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer will transfer all<br />

servicing back to the Servicer if and when a Servicing Transfer Event is no longer continuing with respect to the<br />

Libra Whole Loan, at which time the Libra Whole Loan will be a “Corrected Loan”. A Servicing Transfer<br />

Event will cease to exist:<br />

(a) with respect to the circumstances described in paragraphs (a) and (b) above, when<br />

(i) the Borrower has paid in full all payments due under the Libra Whole Loan and in the case of<br />

paragraph (b), has made two consecutive full and timely scheduled payments under the Libra<br />

Whole Loan, or<br />

(ii) if a workout is entered into with respect to the Libra Whole Loan, the Borrower has made two<br />

consecutive full and timely scheduled payments under the terms of the Libra Whole Loan as<br />

modified in connection with such workout;<br />

(b) with respect to the circumstances described in paragraphs (c), (d), (e) and (g) above, when such<br />

circumstances cease to exist in the good faith judgment of the Special Servicer; or<br />

(c) with respect to the circumstance described in paragraph (f) above, the Borrower has cured such default.<br />

Notwithstanding the transfer of servicing responsibility to the Special Servicer, the Servicer will be required<br />

to continue to collect information and prepare all reports required to be collected or prepared by it under the<br />

Servicing Agreement and perform certain other day to day administrative functions. Neither the Servicer nor<br />

the Special Servicer will have responsibility for the performance by the other of its obligations and duties under<br />

the Servicing Agreement.<br />

The Controlling Class<br />

The holders of the most junior class of Notes outstanding at any time (other than the Class X Notes and the<br />

Class V Notes) who meet the Controlling Class Test as defined in Condition 20 (Controlling Class) will be the<br />

“Controlling Class”.<br />

119


A class of Notes shall meet the “Controlling Class Test” if such class of Notes’ Proportion Ratio is not<br />

less than 25 per cent. of its Proportion Ratio (as defined below) as at the Closing Date, as determined by the<br />

Cash Manager; provided that if no class satisfies this requirement, the Controlling Class will be the most junior<br />

class of Notes then outstanding (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes). The Note Trustee shall<br />

determine which class of Notes meets the Controlling Class Test and shall notify the Servicer and Special<br />

Servicer accordingly.<br />

The “Proportion Ratio” for any class of Notes as at any date of calculation is the ratio of its Principal<br />

Amount Outstanding to the Principal Amount Outstanding of all of the Notes.<br />

The Conditions and the Servicing Agreement permit the Controlling Class to appoint a representative (the<br />

“Controlling Class Representative”) to represent its interests. The appointment of a Controlling Class<br />

Representative will be deemed effective upon written notice being given to each of the Issuer, the Note Trustee,<br />

the Servicer and the Special Servicer.<br />

The Controlling Class Representative will have no liability to the Issuer or the Note Trustee for any action<br />

taken, or refraining from the taking of any action, pursuant to the Servicing Agreement.<br />

The Controlling Party<br />

The “Controlling Party” means:<br />

(a) for as long as no Control Valuation Event is continuing, the Representative for the B4 Loan;<br />

(b) for as long as a Control Valuation Event for the B4 Loan (a “B4 Loan Control Valuation Event”), but<br />

no other Control Valuation Event, are continuing, the Representative for the B3 Loan;<br />

(c) for as long as a B4 Loan Control Valuation Event and a Control Valuation Event for the B3 Loan (a<br />

“B3 Loan Control Valuation Event”), but no other Control Valuation Event, are continuing, the<br />

Representative for the B2 Loan;<br />

(d) for as long as a B4 Loan Control Valuation Event, a B3 Loan Control Valuation Event and a Control<br />

Valuation Event for the B2 Loan (a “B2 Loan Control Valuation Event”), but no other Control<br />

Valuation Event, are continuing, the Representative for the B1 Loan;<br />

(e) for as long as a B4 Loan Control Valuation Event, a B3 Loan Control Valuation Event, a B2 Loan<br />

Control Valuation Event and a Control Valuation Event for the B1 Loan (a “B1 Loan Control<br />

Valuation Event”), but no other Control Valuation Event, are continuing, the Representative for the<br />

B0-2 Loan;<br />

(f) for as long as a B4 Loan Control Valuation Event, a B3 Loan Control Valuation Event, a B2 Loan<br />

Control Valuation Event, a B1 Loan Control Valuation Event and a Control Valuation Event for the<br />

B0-2 Loan (a “B0-2 Loan Control Valuation Event”), but no other Control Valuation Event, are<br />

continuing, the Representative for the B0-1 Loan; or<br />

(g) for as long as a B4 Loan Control Valuation Event, a B3 Loan Control Valuation Event, a B2 Loan<br />

Control Valuation Event, a B1 Loan Control Valuation Event, a B0-2 Loan Control Valuation Event<br />

and a Control Valuation Event for the B0-1 Loan (a “B0-1 Loan Control Valuation Event”), but no<br />

other Control Valuation Event, are continuing, the Controlling Class Representative.<br />

The “Representative” for a Loan means either the Loan Representative for that Loan (if one is<br />

appointed) or (if there is no Loan Representative), Lenders whose commitments and participations with<br />

respect to that Loan represent more than 50 per cent. of that Loan.<br />

A “Control Valuation Event” occurs with respect to a Loan if and for so long as: (a) the difference<br />

between: (1) the then outstanding principal balance of that Loan; and (2) an amount equal to the<br />

amount, if any, of: (i) the sum of: (x) any Valuation Reduction Amounts with respect to the Libra<br />

Whole Loan; and (y) without duplication, losses realised with respect to any enforcement of security in<br />

respect of a Property, minus (ii) the then aggregate outstanding balance of the CVE Subordinated<br />

Loans for that Loan, is less than (b) 25 per cent. of the then outstanding principal balance of that Loan.<br />

120


A “Subordinate Lender Control Valuation Event” will occur with respect to a Subordinate Tranche<br />

if and for so long as: (a) the difference between (1) the then outstanding principal balance of such<br />

Subordinate Tranche and (2) the sum of (x) any Valuation Reduction Amounts with respect to the Libra<br />

Whole Loan and (y) without duplication, losses realised with respect to any enforcement of security in<br />

respect of a related Property, minus the then aggregate, outstanding principal balance of any CVE<br />

Subordinated Loan is less than (b) 25 per cent. of the then outstanding principal balance of the related<br />

Subordinate Tranche.<br />

A “CVE Subordinated Loan” means, in relation to a Loan, all the Loans that are subordinate in right<br />

and priority of payment to that Loan under the Senior Intercreditor Deed.<br />

For the purposes of this definition, with respect to the Libra Whole Loan each of the Libra Loan, the B0-1<br />

Loan, the B0-2 Loan, the B1 Loan, the B2 Loan, the B3 Loan and the B4 Loan are defined herein as a “Loan”<br />

and, collectively, “Loans” of the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

Upon the occurrence of a Valuation Event, a Valuation Reduction Amount will be calculated by the Special<br />

Servicer based upon a valuation or an update of a valuation (the “Control Valuation”) in respect of a Property<br />

as described below. Upon the Special Servicer receiving notice or otherwise becoming aware of the Valuation<br />

Event, the Special Servicer must use reasonable endeavours to require an independent valuer who is a member<br />

of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors or a qualified independent valuer acting in accordance with the<br />

then current RICS Appraisal and Valuation Standards to prepare and deliver an updated valuation, within 30<br />

days of such event, if and for so long as there exists a valuation of the Property which is more than twelve<br />

months old or the current valuation is based on materially different net cash flow assumptions in the reasonable<br />

opinion of the Servicer or if, at the relevant time the Libra Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special<br />

Servicer, as applicable, acting in accordance with the Servicing Standard. Notwithstanding that the value of a<br />

Property may have reduced since the last valuation, the Servicer or if, at the relevant time the Libra Whole Loan<br />

is a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer, as applicable, will not be authorised to obtain a new valuation<br />

for the purposes of determining whether a Control Valuation Event has occurred except in the circumstances<br />

described above. The cost of such an updated valuation shall be paid as an expense by the lenders from the<br />

priorities set forth in the Senior Intercreditor Deed. A lender that would cease to be the Controlling Party as a<br />

result of a Control Valuation Event may, at its discretion, instruct the Special Servicer to obtain another<br />

valuation on the same basis as the previous valuation, at the cost and expense of the relevant Subordinate<br />

Lender, from another independent valuer who is a member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors or by<br />

a qualified independent valuer acting in accordance with the then current RICS Appraisal and Valuation<br />

Standards. If so instructed, the Special Servicer will use all reasonable endeavours to procure that such<br />

additional valuation is obtained within 30 days of the date of receipt of the instruction from the relevant<br />

Subordinate Lender. In the event that a subsequent valuation is so obtained, the Special Servicer shall be<br />

entitled to use either of the valuations obtained (provided that it must determine which valuation to use within<br />

15 days of receipt of the second such valuation) to determine the Valuation Reduction Amount. On the first<br />

Payment Date occurring on or after the delivery of the later relevant updated valuation, the Special Servicer will<br />

adjust the Valuation Reduction Amount to take into account the relevant valuation and will promptly provide<br />

the Servicer and the lenders with such calculations.<br />

A “Valuation Event” means (i) the date on which an amendment or modification is entered into with<br />

respect to the Libra Whole Loan which adversely affects in the reasonable opinion of the Special Servicer any<br />

material economic term; (ii) the 40 th day following the occurrence of any uncured failure to make a scheduled<br />

payment under the Libra Whole Loan; (iii) upon the occurrence of any payment default on the Libra Whole<br />

Loan at its maturity date (unless such maturity date has been extended by the Servicer or Special Servicer but is<br />

not the result of a workout or other material adverse event relating to the Libra Whole Loan, the Properties or<br />

the Borrower as determined by the Servicer or the Special Servicer in its reasonable opinion); or (iv) receipt of<br />

notice that the Borrower has become subject to any insolvency proceedings or the date on which a receiver or<br />

administrator is appointed and continues in such capacity in respect of the Borrower or a Property or 60 days<br />

after such Borrower becomes the subject of involuntary proceedings and such proceedings are not dismissed.<br />

A “Valuation Reduction Amount” with respect to the Libra Whole Loan will be an amount equal to the<br />

excess of:<br />

(a) the outstanding principal balance of the Libra Whole Loan over<br />

(b) the excess of:<br />

121


(i) 90 per cent. of the sum of the value set forth in the Control Valuation for each related Property (net<br />

of any prior security interest but including all reserves or similar amount which may be applied<br />

toward payments on the Libra Whole Loan) above<br />

(ii) the sum of:<br />

(A) to the extent that interest has not been advanced pursuant to a P&I Advance by the Advance<br />

Provider or, as the case may be, the Backup Advance Provider, all unpaid interest on the Libra<br />

Whole Loan;<br />

(B) all unreimbursed Advances that are related to the Libra Whole Loan;<br />

(C) any other unpaid fees, expenses and other amounts of the Servicer, the Special Servicer or the<br />

Security Agent (or any of their agents) that are payable prior to the Notes that are related to<br />

the Libra Whole Loan; and<br />

(D) all currently due and unpaid ground rents, insurance premia and taxes due on the related<br />

Properties and all other amounts due and unpaid with respect to the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

Rights of the Controlling Party<br />

The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, will be required to consult with the related Controlling<br />

Party with respect to proposals for it to take any significant action (as determined by the Servicer or Special<br />

Servicer, as applicable) with respect to the Libra Whole Loan or its Related Security and to consider alternative<br />

actions recommended by such Controlling Party. The Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall also, as<br />

soon as reasonably practicable, inform the Note Trustee of the result of any consultation with a Controlling<br />

Party; provided, however, that neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be bound by any advice,<br />

direction, instruction or objection of the Controlling Party with respect to such proposed action.<br />

The Controlling Party (or majority holder thereof) may appoint a representative for the purpose of<br />

exercising, on its behalf, the rights of the Controlling Party under the Servicing Agreement. Such appointment<br />

will become effective upon notice being provided in writing to the Note Trustee, the Servicer and the Special<br />

Servicer.<br />

In addition, the Special Servicer or the Servicer, prior to taking or consenting to any of the following<br />

actions with respect to the Libra Whole Loan, as applicable, will be required, among other things, to receive the<br />

written approval of the related Controlling Party (a copy of which approval the Servicer or the Special Servicer<br />

shall promptly forward to the Note Trustee):<br />

(a) any modification of, or waiver with respect to the Libra Whole Loan that would result in the extension<br />

or shortening of its Loan Maturity Date (other than extensions provided for in the Loan Documents);<br />

(b) a reduction in the Libra Whole Loan’s, the Libra Loan’s or any B Loan’s interest rate or its quarterly<br />

payment;<br />

(c) a forgiveness of interest on or principal of the Libra Whole Loan;<br />

(d) a modification or waiver of any other monetary term relating to the timing or amount of any payment<br />

of principal or interest or any other material sum due under any Loan Document;<br />

(e) a substitution of a Property (to the extent any Finance Party has any discretion to approve or disapprove<br />

of such substitution under the Credit Agreement);<br />

(f) the replacement of a property manager (to the extent any Finance Party has any discretion to approve or<br />

disapprove such replacement under the Credit Agreement);<br />

(g) any determination to grant any consent or waiver under any Loan Document in connection with: (i) the<br />

sale or other transfer of an interest in a Property; (ii) the assumption of all or part of the rights and<br />

obligations under and in respect of the Libra Whole Loan by an entity other than the Borrower; (iii) the<br />

creation of any lien or other encumbrance on a Property; or (iv) any similar provision (unless the<br />

failure to grant the consent or waiver would not be permissible under applicable law or such failure<br />

would reasonably be likely to result in successful legal action by the Borrower);<br />

122


(h) any action to bring a Property into compliance with environmental laws;<br />

(i) any modification or waiver of any term contained in the documentation for the hedging arrangements;<br />

(j) any change in, or an extension of, a commitment or the total commitments with respect to the Libra<br />

Whole Loan; and<br />

(k) any release or substitution of security for the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

The Special Servicer or the Servicer, as applicable, must notify the Controlling Party with respect to the<br />

Libra Whole Loan in advance of any action it intends to take with regard to the matters set out above and (with<br />

regard to significant actions other than those set out under paragraphs (a) to (k) above) must take due account of<br />

(but shall not, except to the extent provided herein, be bound by) the advice and representation of the<br />

Controlling Party. The Controlling Party will have five Business Days to respond to the Servicer or the Special<br />

Servicer, as applicable. If the Controlling Party does not respond within such five Business Days, its approval<br />

will be deemed to have been given and the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may take (or direct<br />

the Servicer to take) whatever action it reasonably considers necessary in accordance with the Servicing<br />

Standard without further approval from the Controlling Party. If the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as<br />

applicable, does take any such action, it must notify the Controlling Party of the action as soon as practicable<br />

(and in any event, within five Business Days of taking such action) and must consult with such Controlling<br />

Party regarding any further action relating to such action that it considers should be taken in the interests of the<br />

Subordinate Lenders (and, if applicable, the Noteholders).<br />

In addition to the above, (i) the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, will not be obliged to further<br />

consult with the Controlling Party for any action if for 45 days following notice of such matter, the Controlling<br />

Party has objected to the proposed action and has failed to suggest any alternative action that the Servicer or<br />

Special Servicer, as applicable, considers to be consistent with the Servicing Standard; or (ii) if the Servicer or<br />

Special Servicer, as applicable, determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that immediate action (or<br />

action in a shorter time period) is necessary to comply with the Servicing Standard, the Servicer or Special<br />

Servicer, as applicable, may take any such action without waiting for the Controlling Party’s response. If the<br />

Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, does take such action and the Controlling Party objects in writing to<br />

the actions taken within 10 Business Days after being notified of the action and being provided with all<br />

reasonably requested information, the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, must take due account of the<br />

advice and representations made by the Controlling Party regarding any further steps that it considers should be<br />

taken in the interest of the Noteholders and the Subordinate Lenders (as a collective whole, in accordance with<br />

the Servicing Standard, but taking into account the subordination in priority of the Subordinate Debt).<br />

Notwithstanding any right of the Controlling Party to provide any direction to the Servicer or Special<br />

Servicer, or to approve or disapprove of, or right to give direction to or to consent or withhold consent to any<br />

action of the Servicer or Special Servicer, in no event will the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, be<br />

obliged or permitted to take any action or refrain from taking any action that would violate any law of any<br />

applicable jurisdiction and/or which would be, in the opinion of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as<br />

applicable, inconsistent with the Servicing Standard or violate any provisions of the Loan Documents or the<br />

Senior Intercreditor Deed. In addition, neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have any liability to<br />

any other entity for any action taken, or for refraining from taking any action, or for giving any consent, in each<br />

case in accordance with any directions or instructions given by the Controlling Party or a Subordinate Lender to<br />

the Servicer or, as the case may be, the Special Servicer. Where there is a conflict between the opinion of the<br />

Controlling Party and the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, the opinion of the Servicer or Special<br />

Servicer will prevail where, in the reasonable opinion of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, there is<br />

a conflict with the Servicing Standard and the other terms of the Loan Documents.<br />

Each Noteholder acknowledges and agrees, by its purchase of the Notes, that:<br />

(a) a Controlling Class Representative elected by the Controlling Class may have special relationships and<br />

interests that conflict with those of the holders of one or more classes of the Notes;<br />

(b) a Controlling Class Representative elected by the Controlling Class may act solely in the interests of<br />

the Controlling Class;<br />

(c) a Controlling Class Representative elected by the Controlling Class does not have any duties to any<br />

Noteholders other than the Controlling Class of which it is the representative;<br />

123


(d) a Controlling Class Representative elected by the Controlling Class may take actions that favour the<br />

interests of the Controlling Class over the interests of the other Noteholders;<br />

(e) a Controlling Class Representative elected by the Controlling Class will not be deemed to have been<br />

negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in wilful misconduct, by reason of its<br />

having acted solely in the interests of the Controlling Class; and<br />

(f) a Controlling Class Representative elected by the Controlling Class will have no liability whatsoever<br />

for having acted solely in the interests of the Controlling Class, and no holder of any class of Notes<br />

may take any action whatsoever against the Controlling Class Representative for having so acted.<br />

No Controlling Party shall have liability to any other entity for any action taken, or for refraining from the<br />

taking of any action, or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent in good faith pursuant to the<br />

Servicing Agreement, or for errors in judgment.<br />

Advancing<br />

Two Business Days prior to each Payment Date, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, is<br />

required to notify the Advance Provider (and the Backup Advance Provider) of any P&I Required Amounts for<br />

the related Due Date. In addition, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, will notify the Advance<br />

Provider, as promptly as possible upon becoming aware of any amount of expenses that may be due with respect<br />

to a Property, such as ground rents or insurance premia, the payment of which are necessary for the protection<br />

and preservation of the related Property. Any request that the Advance Provider (or, if it fails to do so, the<br />

Backup Advance Provider) make an Advance shall be accompanied by the written determination of the Servicer<br />

(or the Special Servicer, as applicable) as to the ultimate recoverability of the requested Advance, together with<br />

the consideration of the Servicer (or the Special Servicer), acting in accordance with the Servicing Standard,<br />

forming the basis of such judgement.<br />

The Cash Manager is required to notify the Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Advance Provider, as<br />

applicable, upon becoming aware of any amounts pursuant to items (a), (b) or (c) of Revenue Priority Amounts<br />

being due at a time where the Issuer does not have sufficient funds to make payment on such items when they<br />

are to become due.<br />

With respect to the Libra Loan, the Properties or MIP Properties, the Advance Provider will make advances<br />

in respect of P&I Required Amounts (“P&I Advances”) and will make certain advances with respect to any<br />

Property to the extent necessary to pay ground rents, taxes and insurance premia that the Borrower failed to pay,<br />

for certain other property protection advances and for a shortfall in the amount of funds available to the Issuer to<br />

pay expenses due to third parties (including, to the extent such expenses were unanticipated, amounts set forth in<br />

paragraphs (a) and (b) of the definition of “Revenue Priority Amounts” and, to the extent a Loan Event of<br />

Default has occurred and is continuing, amounts set forth in paragraph (c) of the definition of “Revenue Priority<br />

Amounts” (“Servicing Advances” and together with P&I Advances, “Advances”, and each, an “Advance”) in<br />

accordance with the provisions set forth in the Servicing Agreement. Neither the Advance Provider nor the<br />

Backup Advance Provider will be required to make any P&I Advance with respect to the Subordinate Debt. In<br />

addition, subject to the provisions set forth in the Servicing Agreement, the Advance Provider will have the<br />

ability to assign any Advance made and/or its obligation to make an Advance to a third party.<br />

P&I Advances, once made and deposited into the Collection Account, would be available to pay Expenses<br />

Priority Amounts in accordance with the relevant priority of payments and thereafter will constitute part of<br />

Available Funds. However, Expenses Priority Amounts do not include any outstanding P&I Advances on the<br />

date additional P&I Advances are made.<br />

“P&I Required Amounts” means the aggregate of all amounts due on the Libra Loan during any Loan<br />

Interest Accrual Period (other than the Balloon Payment and any amounts received or receivable under the Libra<br />

Loan due to any voluntary or mandatory prepayments thereunder) and any Assumed Scheduled Payments, net of<br />

related Special Servicing Fees due or deemed due, as the case may be, in respect of the Libra Loan, on their<br />

respective Due Dates during (or deemed to be during) the related Collection Period to the extent such amounts<br />

were not paid by or on behalf of the Borrower or otherwise collected (including as net income from MIP<br />

Properties) as of the close of business of the related Loan Interest Accrual Period.<br />

124


“Assumed Scheduled Payment” means, with respect to the Libra Loan if delinquent in respect of its<br />

Balloon Payment, an amount equal to interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Libra Loan at the<br />

applicable Loan Interest Rate (net of interest at the Servicing Fee Rate).<br />

“Balloon Payment” means, with respect to the Libra Loan, the principal amount payable on the Libra Loan<br />

on its Loan Maturity Date.<br />

To the extent that the Advance Provider fails to make any Advance required of it, the Backup Advance<br />

Provider will be obliged to make such required Advance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Advance<br />

Provider nor the Backup Advance Provider will be obliged to make Advances to the extent that such Advance<br />

would, if made, in the sole judgment of the Advance Provider or the Backup Advance Provider (based on advice<br />

received by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, acting in accordance with the Servicing<br />

Standard), not be ultimately recoverable from Late Collections or any other recovery on or in respect of the<br />

Libra Loan or MIP Loan (or, in connection with any Advance made with respect to amounts set forth under<br />

paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of the definition of “Revenue Priority Amounts”, would not be ultimately recoverable<br />

from collections on the Libra Loan) (in each case, a “Nonrecoverable Advance”). The Servicer or the Special<br />

Servicer, as applicable, will be required to provide to the Advance Provider and the Rating Agencies (with a<br />

copy to the Backup Advance Provider) its determination of whether an Advance would be a Nonrecoverable<br />

Advance at the time that it first makes its notification to the Advance Provider of any P&I Required Amounts or<br />

need for a Servicing Advance. In addition, in connection with any required Advance notified by the Cash<br />

Manager, the Servicer will provide its determination to the Advance Provider (with a copy to the Backup<br />

Advance Provider) as to whether any such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance based upon amounts<br />

that remain outstanding under the Libra Loan and the Value of the Properties as set out in the most recent<br />

Valuation Report. The Advance Provider and the Backup Advance Provider, as applicable, will be entitled to<br />

rely conclusively upon any such determinations of recoverability made by the Servicer or the Special Servicer;<br />

provided, however, that neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall incur any liability to any other party<br />

in respect of any losses, liability, costs or expenses incurred by any party which result from the estimate or<br />

determination of the amount or recoverability of Advances which are required to be made on a Due Date (other<br />

than as a result of the Servicer’s or, as the case may be, the Special Servicer’s negligence or wilful misconduct).<br />

“Late Collections” means, with respect to the Libra Loan, all amounts received thereon during any Loan<br />

Interest Accrual Period (other than default interest), whether as payments, insurance proceeds, compulsory<br />

purchase proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or otherwise, which represent late payments or collections of principal<br />

or interest due in respect of the Libra Loan (or Assumed Scheduled Payments deemed due) (without regard to<br />

any acceleration of amounts due thereunder by reason of default) on a Due Date in a previous Loan Interest<br />

Accrual Period and not previously recovered.<br />

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if the amount of payment of principal or interest on the Libra Loan has<br />

been reduced in connection with an insolvency, bankruptcy or similar proceeding involving the Borrower or a<br />

modification, waiver or amendment granted or agreed to by the Special Servicer, or (ii) if the Loan Maturity<br />

Date has been extended in connection with an insolvency, bankruptcy or similar proceeding involving the<br />

Borrower or a modification, waiver or amendment granted or agreed to by the Special Servicer, and the<br />

scheduled payments of principal (if any) and interest under the Libra Loan due and owing during the extension<br />

period are less than the related Assumed Scheduled Payment, then the Advance Provider or the Backup<br />

Advance Provider will, as to the Libra Loan, advance only the amount of principal or interest payment due and<br />

owing after taking into account such reduction (net of related Special Servicing Fees) in the event of subsequent<br />

delinquencies thereon.<br />

Each of the Advance Provider and the Backup Advance Provider, as the case may be, to the extent of any<br />

Advance that has been made, will be entitled to reimbursement for such Advances, plus interest, from the<br />

Collection Account upon receipt from the Borrower of the related Late Collections or amount for which such<br />

Advance was made. Pursuant to the terms of the Cash Management Agreement, upon receipt of such amounts,<br />

the Cash Manager will reimburse the Advance Provider or the Backup Advance Provider, as the case may be,<br />

for such outstanding Advance, together with interest. In addition, on any Payment Date, the Advance Provider<br />

or the Backup Advance Provider, as applicable, is entitled to recover from general funds on deposit in the<br />

Collection Account, any Advance made that the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, determines (in<br />

accordance with the Servicing Standard) to be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The Servicer and the Special<br />

Servicer, as applicable, will be required to advise the Advance Provider and the Backup Advance Provider on a<br />

quarterly basis of any Advance made by the Advance Provider or the Backup Advance Provider that it<br />

determines to be a Nonrecoverable Advance. Each of the Advance Provider and the Backup Advance Provider,<br />

as the case may be, will be entitled to receive interest at the Reimbursement Rate in effect from time to time<br />

125


accrued on the amount of any outstanding Servicing Advances and P&I Advances, respectively, in each case<br />

from the date made to, but not including, the date of reimbursement, such interest to be payable first out of late<br />

payment charges and default interest received on the Libra Loan, Property or MIP Property during the<br />

Collection Period in which such reimbursement is made and to the extent that such late payment charges and<br />

default interest are insufficient, then from general collections on the Libra Loan then on deposit in the<br />

Collection Account. The Servicer will reimburse the Advance Provider or the Backup Advance Provider, as the<br />

case may be, for any outstanding Advance from such amounts as soon as practically possible after funds<br />

available for such purpose have been received by the Servicer.<br />

“Reimbursement Rate” means the rate per annum applicable to the accrual of interest on Servicing<br />

Advances and P&I Advances in accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement which rate per annum<br />

will equal the sum of the base lending rate, from time to time, of SONIA and 1.25 per cent. per annum.<br />

Upon a determination that a previously made Advance is not recoverable, instead of obtaining<br />

reimbursement out of general collections immediately, the Advance Provider or the Backup Advance Provider,<br />

as applicable, may, in its sole discretion, elect to obtain reimbursement for such Nonrecoverable Advance over<br />

time (not to exceed 12 months or such longer period of time as agreed to by the Advance Provider or the Backup<br />

Advance Provider (as applicable) and the Controlling Class Representative, each in its sole discretion) and the<br />

unreimbursed portion of such Advance will accrue interest at the Reimbursement Rate. At any time after such a<br />

determination to obtain reimbursement over time, the Advance Provider or the Backup Advance Provider, as<br />

applicable, may, in its sole discretion, decide to obtain reimbursement immediately. The fact that a decision to<br />

recover such Nonrecoverable Advances over time, or not to do so, benefits some Classes of Noteholders to the<br />

detriment of other Classes shall not, with respect to the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Advance Provider or<br />

the Backup Advance Provider, constitute a violation of the Servicing Standard or contractual duty under the<br />

Servicing Agreement. The Advance Provider or the Backup Advance Provider, as applicable, will be required to<br />

give the Rating Agencies at least 15 days’ notice prior to any such reimbursement to it of Nonrecoverable<br />

Advances from amounts in the Collection Account allocable to interest on the Libra Loan.<br />

Appraisals and Valuations<br />

Not later than the earliest to occur of (i) the date 120 days after the occurrence of any non-payment with<br />

respect to the Libra Whole Loan if such non-payment remains uncured, (ii) the date 90 days after an order is<br />

made or an effective resolution is passed for the winding up of the Borrower or an Obligor or an administration<br />

order is granted or an administrative receiver or other receiver, liquidator or other similar official is appointed in<br />

relation to the Borrower or an Obligor or a Property, or the Borrower is declared en etat de desastre, provided<br />

such order, resolution or appointment is still in effect, (iii) the effective date of any modification to the maturity<br />

date, interest rate, principal balance, amortisation term or payment frequency of the Libra Whole Loan, other<br />

than the extension of the date that a final principal payment is due for a period of less than six months, and (iv)<br />

the date 30 days following the date the Libra Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, the Servicer or, if<br />

it has been appointed in relation to a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer, is required to either use<br />

reasonable endeavours to require an independent valuer who is a member of the Royal Institution of Chartered<br />

Surveyors or a qualified independent valuer in the relevant country acting in accordance with the then current<br />

RICS Appraisal and Valuation Standards issued by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (if the<br />

outstanding principal balance of the Libra Whole Loan is greater than £5,000,000) to prepare and deliver an<br />

updated valuation or itself prepare an internal valuation (if the outstanding principal balance of the Libra Loan is<br />

equal to or less than £5,000,000) of the Properties or a Property, unless such an appraisal or valuation had<br />

previously been obtained within the preceding 12 months and in the judgment of the Servicer or, as the case<br />

may be, the Special Servicer, exercised in accordance with the Servicing Standard, the value of the related<br />

Property has not been materially reduced since such valuation. As a result of such appraisal or internal<br />

valuation, an “Appraisal Reduction” may be created, being an amount:<br />

(a) in the event the related Property is, or related Properties are, the subject of a valuation by a member of<br />

the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors or by a qualified independent valuer in the relevant<br />

country acting in accordance with the then current RICS Appraisal and Valuation Standards issued by<br />

the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, calculated as at the first calculation date that is at least 15<br />

days after the date on which the valuation is obtained or performed, equal to the excess, if any, of (i)<br />

the sum of the outstanding principal balance of the Libra Loan, all unpaid interest on such Loan, all<br />

related unreimbursed Advances in respect of the Libra Loan and interest accrued thereon, all currently<br />

due and unpaid taxes and assessments (net of any amount escrowed for such items), insurance premia,<br />

and, if applicable, ground rents in respect of the relevant Property, over (ii) 90 per cent. of the<br />

appraised value of such Property as determined by such appraisal or valuation; or<br />

126


(b) in the event the related Property is the subject of an internal valuation, equal to the greater of (i) the<br />

amount calculated in accordance with paragraph (a) above, and (ii) 25 per cent. of the then outstanding<br />

principal balance of the Libra Loan.<br />

An Appraisal Reduction will be reduced to zero as at the date that the Libra Loan is brought current under<br />

the then current terms of the Credit Agreement for at least three consecutive months, paid in full, liquidated,<br />

repurchased or otherwise disposed of.<br />

Annual Review Procedure<br />

The Servicer or, in the case of any Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer is required to undertake, at<br />

the expense of the Issuer, an annual review in respect of the Borrower and the Libra Whole Loan in accordance<br />

with the Servicing Standard. The Servicer or, as the case may be, the Special Servicer, is authorised to conduct<br />

this review process more frequently, at the expense of the Issuer, if the Servicer or, as the case may be, the<br />

Special Servicer, acting in accordance with the Servicing Standard, has cause for concern as to the ability of the<br />

Borrower to meet its financial obligations under the Credit Agreement. Such a review (annual or otherwise)<br />

may include an inspection of the Properties and will include consideration of the quality of the cash flow arising<br />

from the Properties and a compliance check of the Borrower’s covenants under the Credit Agreement.<br />

Quarterly Reporting<br />

Subject to any constraints imposed by local law or any confidentiality agreement, the Servicer has agreed to<br />

deliver to the Issuer, the Cash Manager, the Special Servicer, the Advance Provider, the Backup Advance<br />

Provider, the Note Trustee, the Rating Agencies and, on the fifth Business Day immediately following each<br />

Payment Date (provided that, with respect to the CMSA E-IRP Loan Setup File, the Servicer will, in addition,<br />

provide such information prior to the first Payment Date), the following reports with respect to the Libra Loan,<br />

each of which shall provide the required information in respect of the Loan Interest Accrual Period immediately<br />

information fields based on Borrower reporting) or in respect of the immediately ended Loan Interest Accrual<br />

Period (in the case of the other items listed below) in each case based on information provided by the Special<br />

Servicer with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan the following reports:<br />

subject to amendment from time to time in accordance with market demands.<br />

The reports identified above (together, the “CMSA <strong>Europe</strong>an Investor Reporting Package”) will be in<br />

the form prescribed in the standard CMSA <strong>Europe</strong>an investor reporting package (or as modified to take into<br />

account any changes for properties located in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales).<br />

On each Payment Date, the Servicer will provide to the Cash Manager, the Special Servicer, the Issuer and<br />

the Note Trustee, the following information fields contained in the CMSA E-IRP Loan Periodic Update File on<br />

the Libra Whole Loan and the Properties in the CMSA E-IRP Loan Periodic Update File format:<br />

In addition to the CMSA <strong>Europe</strong>an Investor Reporting Package, the Servicer will report additional<br />

information on a quarterly basis in respect of the Libra Whole Loan, including the following:<br />

(a) debt service coverage ratio and interest coverage ratio of the Libra Whole Loan, based on the<br />

Borrower’s or property owner’s financial statements or management accounts provided to the Servicer;<br />

In addition, pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, in the event that the Servicer or, if the Libra Whole Loan<br />

is a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer becomes aware of certain relevant information concerning the<br />

Libra Whole Loan or Property, it will, as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming aware of such<br />

information, prepare a summary of such information, notify the Issuer thereof and, upon receiving a signed copy<br />

of such summary from the Issuer, file such summary, on behalf of the Issuer, with the relevant regulatory<br />

information service and with Bloomberg L.P., unless the Issuer directs the Servicer or the Special Servicer not<br />

to file such summary.<br />

Enforcement of the Libra Whole Loan<br />

Upon a default by any Borrower under the Libra Whole Loan, the servicing of the Libra Whole Loan may,<br />

as described under “—Roles of the Servicer and the Special Servicer” above, be transferred to the Special<br />

Servicer who will be required to evaluate whether to enforce such Borrower’s obligations under the Libra<br />

Whole Loan in accordance with the procedures prescribed in the Servicing Agreement. Such procedures for<br />

enforcement include the giving of instructions to the related Security Agent, if applicable, as to how to enforce<br />

the security for the repayment of the Libra Whole Loan.<br />

Subject to the overriding right, if applicable, of a Subordinate Lender and a PIK Facility Lender to purchase<br />

the related Senior Debt pursuant to the express terms of the Senior Intercreditor Deed and the PIK Facility<br />

Intercreditor Deed respectively (see “Certain Characteristics of the Libra Loan and the Properties—Senior<br />

Intercreditor Deed—Purchase Right of Subordinate Lenders” and —PIK Facility Intercreditor Deed—Purchase<br />

128


Rights of PIK Facility Lenders” above), the Servicing Agreement will grant the Special Servicer an assignable<br />

option (a “Purchase Option”) to purchase the Libra Loan that is a Specially Serviced Loan from the Issuer in<br />

the manner and at the price described below; provided, that the Purchase Option may not be exercised by an<br />

affiliate of the Borrower or by the Loan Seller or an affiliate of the Loan Seller.<br />

Promptly after the determination that the Libra Whole Loan has become a Specially Serviced Loan, the<br />

Servicer or the Special Servicer will be required to notify the Issuer, the Note Trustee and the Servicer or the<br />

Special Servicer of such determination. The Note Trustee will then be required, within five days after receipt of<br />

that notice, to provide a copy of the notice to the Controlling Party and the Rating Agencies.<br />

Within 60 days of the Libra Whole Loan becoming a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer will be<br />

required to determine the fair value of the Libra Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard and consistent<br />

with the guidelines contained in the Servicing Agreement. The Special Servicer will be permitted to change<br />

from time to time thereafter, its determination of the fair value of a Specially Serviced Loan based upon changed<br />

circumstances, new information or otherwise, in accordance with the Servicing Standard. In the event that the<br />

Special Servicer or, subject to the restrictions above on the parties that can exercise the Purchase Option, a<br />

Related Party of the Special Servicer proposes to purchase a Specially Serviced Loan for its own account, the<br />

Servicer (if not the same entity as the Special Servicer or a Related Party of the Special Servicer, in which case<br />

the Note Trustee shall make such determination instead) is required pursuant to the Servicing Agreement to<br />

determine whether the Special Servicer’s determination of fair value for a Specially Serviced Loan constitutes a<br />

fair price in its reasonable judgment. All reasonable costs and expenses of the Special Servicer and the Servicer<br />

(or the Note Trustee, as the case may be) in connection with the determination of the fair value of a Specially<br />

Serviced Loan including third-party reports, will be reimbursable on the next Payment Date. The Servicer (or<br />

the Note Trustee, as the case may be) and the Special Servicer will be entitled to rely on third-party reports<br />

obtained in connection with the determination of fair value.<br />

“Related Party” means with respect to the Special Servicer, any other entity controlling or controlled by or<br />

under common control with the Special Servicer. For the purposes of this definition, “control” when used with<br />

respect to the Special Servicer means the power to direct the management and policies of such entity, directly or<br />

indirectly, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise and the terms<br />

“controlling” and “controlled” have meanings correlative to the foregoing.<br />

Within five Business Days after receiving notice of the Special Servicer’s fair value determination, the Note<br />

Trustee must provide a copy to the Controlling Class Representative. After the determination of the fair value,<br />

the Special Servicer or the assignee of the Purchase Option will have the exclusive right, during the following<br />

30 days, to purchase the related Loan.<br />

The holder of the Purchase Option may, during its option period and subject to applicable laws, purchase a<br />

Specially Serviced Loan from the Issuer at a price (the “Option Price”) equal to (i) if the Special Servicer (or<br />

Servicer or Note Trustee, as applicable) has not yet determined the fair value of the Specially Serviced Loan, the<br />

unpaid principal balance of the Specially Serviced Loan plus accrued and unpaid interest on such balance, all<br />

related unreimbursed Advances, together with any unpaid interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate and all<br />

accrued Servicing Fees, Special Servicing Fees and additional expenses allocable to such Specially Serviced<br />

Loan, and all costs and expenses in connection with the sale, or (ii) if the Special Servicer (or Servicer or Note<br />

Trustee, as applicable) has made such fair value determination, the fair value of the Specially Serviced Loan, as<br />

determined by the Special Servicer (or Servicer or Note Trustee, as applicable). If the most recent fair value<br />

calculation was made more than 90 days prior to the exercise date of the Purchase Option, then the Special<br />

Servicer (or Servicer or Note Trustee, as applicable) must confirm or revise the fair value determination, and the<br />

Option Price at which the Specially Serviced Loan may be purchased will be modified accordingly.<br />

Unless and until the Purchase Option with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan is exercised, the Special<br />

Servicer will be required to pursue such other resolution strategies available under the Servicing Agreement,<br />

including workout and enforcement, consistent with the Servicing Standard, but the Special Servicer will not be<br />

permitted to sell the Specially Serviced Loan, other than pursuant to the exercise of the Purchase Option;<br />

provided that the Special Servicer will be permitted to sell to the Subordinate Lender as provided in the Senior<br />

Intercreditor Deed.<br />

If not exercised sooner, the Purchase Option with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan will automatically<br />

terminate upon (i) the related Borrower’s cure of all defaults that caused the Libra Whole Loan to be a Specially<br />

Serviced Loan, (ii) the acquisition by or on behalf of the Issuer of title to the related Property on enforcement or<br />

otherwise or (iii) the modification, waiver or pay-off (full or discounted) of the Specially Serviced Loan in<br />

129


connection with a workout. In addition, the Purchase Option with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan held by<br />

any person will terminate upon the exercise of the Purchase Option by any other holder of a Purchase Option.<br />

Notwithstanding the above, with respect to the Libra Whole Loan, after the occurrence of a Purchase Event<br />

of Default under the Libra Whole Loan, the Senior Intercreditor Deed provides that the Subordinate Lender will<br />

have the right (which will take priority over any Purchase Option right) to purchase the Libra Loan for a price<br />

equal to par plus accrued interest plus all other outstanding amounts under the Libra Loan and any outstanding<br />

costs or expenses of the Issuer relating to the Libra Loan (as more fully described under “Certain<br />

Characteristics of the Libra Loan and the Properties—Senior Intercreditor Deed—Purchase Rights of<br />

Subordinate Lenders” above). The Servicing Agreement provides that the Servicer or Special Servicer will be<br />

required to deliver notice to the related Subordinate Lender upon the occurrence of a Purchase Event of Default<br />

under the Libra Whole Loan. The Purchase Option will expire upon any option to purchase the Libra Loan<br />

being exercised by a Subordinate Lender.<br />

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Servicing Agreement will provide that the<br />

Special Servicer will not cause the Issuer or the Note Trustee to obtain title to a Property related thereto as a<br />

result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, and will not otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other<br />

action with respect to, any Property related thereto if, as a result of any such action, the Note Trustee, the Issuer<br />

or the Noteholders would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” or “heritable creditor<br />

in possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of, such Property within the meaning of the relevant local<br />

law unless the Special Servicer has (a) coordinated with the Issuer to ensure title to the Property will be obtained<br />

only through a specially formed subsidiary and (b) has previously determined, based on an environmental<br />

survey prepared by an independent person who regularly conducts environmental surveys, that: (i) such Property<br />

is in compliance with applicable local environmental laws or, if not, after consultation with an environmental<br />

consultant that it would be in the best economic interest of the Noteholders and any Subordinate Lender (as a<br />

collective whole, but taking into account the subordination in priority of the Subordinate Debt) to take such<br />

actions as are necessary to bring such Property in compliance with applicable local environmental laws and (ii)<br />

there are no circumstances present at such Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any<br />

hazardous materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be<br />

required under any currently applicable local law or regulation, or that, if any such hazardous materials are<br />

present, for which such action could be required, after consultation with an environmental consultant it would be<br />

in the best economic interest of the Noteholders and any Subordinate Lender (as a collective whole, but taking<br />

into account the subordination in priority of the Subordinate Debt) to take such actions with respect to the<br />

affected Property.<br />

The Special Servicer is required to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to solicit bids for each<br />

Property that it holds in lieu of the Libra Whole Loan (whether as a result of enforcement or otherwise) (each,<br />

an “MIP Property”) in such manner as will be reasonably likely to realise a fair price prior to the Maturity<br />

Date. Such solicitation is required to be made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Special Servicer shall<br />

manage, conserve, protect and operate each MIP Property for the Issuer, any related Subordinate Lender and the<br />

Note Trustee, solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale (which shall not be later than three years<br />

from the date such MIP Property is acquired) in accordance with the Servicing Agreement. The Special<br />

Servicer is required to accept the highest cash bid received from any person for such MIP Property in an amount<br />

at least equal to par plus accrued interest plus all other outstanding amounts under the related Libra Whole Loan<br />

and any outstanding expense of the Issuer relating to the Libra Whole Loan; provided, however, that in the<br />

absence of any such bid, the Special Servicer must accept the highest cash bid received from any person that is<br />

determined by the Special Servicer to be a fair price for such MIP Property. If the Special Servicer reasonably<br />

believes that it will be unable to realise a fair price for any MIP Property, then the Special Servicer must dispose<br />

of such MIP Property upon such terms and conditions as it deems necessary and desirable to maximise the<br />

recovery thereon under the circumstances and, in connection therewith, is required to accept the highest<br />

outstanding cash bid.<br />

For purposes of calculating distributions on, and allocations of NAI to, the Notes, as well as for purposes of<br />

calculating the Servicing Fee and the Special Servicing Fee payable each quarter, each MIP Property will be<br />

treated as if there exists with respect thereto an outstanding loan (a “MIP Loan”), and all references to the Libra<br />

Whole Loan in this Offering Circular, when used in that context, will be deemed to also be references to or to<br />

also include, as the case may be, a MIP Loan. A MIP Loan will generally be deemed to have the same<br />

characteristics as its actual predecessor Libra Whole Loan, including the same Loan Interest Rate and the same<br />

unpaid principal balance. Amounts due on the predecessor Libra Whole Loan, including any portion of it<br />

payable or reimbursable to the Servicer, will continue to be “due” in respect of the MIP Loan; and amounts<br />

received in respect of the related MIP Property, net of payments to be made, or reimbursement to the Advance<br />

130


Provider or the Backup Advance Provider, as applicable, for payment previously advanced, in connection with<br />

the operation and management of that Property, generally will be applied by the Servicer as if received on the<br />

predecessor Libra Whole Loan.<br />

If the mortgage or standard security is enforced and a Property is sold, the net proceeds of sale (after<br />

payment of the costs and expenses of the sale, including any Liquidation Fees payable in connection therewith)<br />

will, together with any amount payable to the Borrower on any related insurance contracts (to the extent such<br />

amounts may be applied in repayment of the Libra Whole Loan), be applied against the sums owing from the<br />

Borrower to the extent necessary to repay the Libra Whole Loan and the related costs. For more discussion on<br />

enforcement procedures, see “Certain Aspects of the Libra Loan” below.<br />

Modifications, Waivers, Amendments, Consents and Substitutions<br />

The Servicer or, in the case of a Specially Serviced Loan the Special Servicer, will be responsible for<br />

responding to requests by the Borrower for consent to modifications or waivers to the Credit Agreement and<br />

other Loan Documents, subject to the rights of the Controlling Party and PIK Facility Lender as described under<br />

“Rights of the Controlling Party” and “Certain characteristics of the Libra Loan and Properties—PIK Facility<br />

Intercreditor Deed—Rights of the PIK Facility Lender” above.<br />

The Security Agent is required to provide the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, with any request<br />

by the Borrower made to the Security Agent rather than the Servicer or the Special Servicer for a modification,<br />

waiver or amendment of the Credit Agreement within three Business Days of receipt of such request together<br />

with any relevant information relating to such request which may be reasonably required by the Servicer or<br />

Special Servicer, as the case may be, to perform its obligations under the Servicing Agreement.<br />

With respect to requests for consents, modifications, waivers or amendments not contemplated by the Loan<br />

Documents, the Servicer or Special Servicer, as appropriate, may exercise its discretion and agree to the request<br />

provided that:<br />

(a) the granting of consent would be in accordance with the Servicing Standard; and<br />

(b) the consent if granted:<br />

(i) would, in the reasonable opinion of the Servicer or, as the case may be, the Special Servicer, not<br />

have a material adverse effect on the interests of Noteholders and any Subordinate Lender (as a<br />

collective whole but taking into account the subordination in priority of the Subordinate Debt); or<br />

(ii) would, in the reasonable opinion of the Servicer or, as the case may be, Special Servicer, produce<br />

an aggregate greater recovery to the Noteholders and any Subordinate Lender (as a collective<br />

whole but taking into account the subordination of the Subordinate Debt) on a net present value<br />

basis than liquidation of the related Property, as determined by the Servicer or Special Servicer, in<br />

accordance with the Servicing Standard; or<br />

(iii) has been the subject of written confirmation from S&P and Fitch, that an event that would cause<br />

the downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the then current ratings of any class of Notes (such<br />

an event, an “Adverse Rating Event”) would not occur as a result, unless the Note Trustee, acting<br />

on instructions of each class of Noteholders whose Notes would be subject to an Adverse Rating<br />

Event, has confirmed that such consent may be given.<br />

Notwithstanding the above, no modification, waiver or amendment may be made to any of the Loan<br />

Documents that would:<br />

(a) require the making of a further advance to the Borrower or Obligor; or<br />

(b) extend the Loan Maturity Date beyond the date that is seven years before the Maturity Date of the<br />

Notes without the consent of each class of Noteholders by way of Extraordinary Resolution; or<br />

(c) extend the Loan Maturity Date to a date that is less than ten years from the expiry of any headlease<br />

without the consent of all the Noteholders of every class or receipt of confirmation from S&P<br />

(following notification to all Rating Agencies) that there will not be an Adverse Rating Event; and<br />

131


(d) have the effect of permitting the assignment or substitution or transfer of a controlling interest in the<br />

Borrower or the assumption of the Borrower’s obligations by any other person, unless notice of such<br />

matter is provided to the Rating Agencies.<br />

The Servicer and the Special Servicer will each be required to deposit in the relevant mortgage file an<br />

original counterpart of any agreement relating to a modification, waiver or amendment agreed to by it promptly<br />

following its execution and to forward a copy to the Note Trustee and the Rating Agencies. Upon reasonable<br />

prior written notice to the Servicer, copies of each agreement by which any modification, waiver or amendment<br />

of any term of the Libra Whole Loan is effected are required to be available for review during normal business<br />

hours at the offices of the Servicer.<br />

Calculations<br />

The Servicer will identify all funds received by the Issuer under the Libra Loan as principal, interest or<br />

other amounts allocable to the Libra Whole Loan or otherwise and will advise the Cash Manager and as to the<br />

crediting of such funds to the related ledger.<br />

Insurance<br />

The Servicer (for so long as the Libra Whole Loan is not a Specially Serviced Loan) and the Special<br />

Servicer (for so long as the Libra Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan) will, on behalf of the Note Trustee,<br />

the Security Agent and the Issuer administer the arrangements for insurance in respect of, or in connection with,<br />

the Libra Whole Loan and any Related Security. Pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer<br />

or the Special Servicer, as applicable, are required to use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing<br />

Standard to monitor the compliance of, and to the extent reasonably practicable, to cause the Borrower to<br />

comply with the requirements of the Loan Documents regarding the maintenance of insurance on the related<br />

Properties.<br />

To the extent consistent with the Loan Documents, each of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as<br />

applicable, is required under the Servicing Agreement to use reasonable endeavours consistent with the<br />

Servicing Standard to require the Borrower to obtain insurance coverage required under the Loan Documents<br />

from insurers which have a “claims paying ability” or an “insurance financial strength” rating, as applicable of<br />

“A” or better by S&P and Fitch and “A3” or better by Moody’s (or the obligations of which are guaranteed or<br />

backed by a company that has such insurance financial strength rating), unless in any such case S&P has<br />

confirmed in writing that obtaining the related insurance from an insurance company that is not rated by each of<br />

the Rating Agencies (subject to the foregoing exceptions) or that has a lower claims-paying ability than such<br />

requirements shall not result, in and of itself, in an Adverse Rating Event.<br />

In the event that the Servicer (for as long as the Libra Whole Loan is not a Specially Serviced Loan) or the<br />

Special Servicer (for as long as the Libra Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan) becomes aware that either:<br />

(a) a Property is not covered by a buildings insurance policy; or (b) a buildings insurance policy may lapse in<br />

relation to a Property due to the non-payment of any premium, the Servicer or the Special Servicer as<br />

applicable, is required, pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Agreement and subject always to all applicable<br />

laws and regulations and consistent with the Servicing Standard, to procure that buildings insurance is<br />

maintained for such Property in the form required under the related Loan Documents. Such building insurance<br />

policy will be paid for by either (i) a Servicing Advance, or (ii) a withdrawal from the related Rent Account of<br />

an amount necessary to pay all necessary premia (in the case of (a) preceding) or pay to the insurer any unpaid<br />

premia, together with any penalties or other charges arising from the related Borrower’s failure to timely pay<br />

such items (in the case of (b) preceding). However, neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer is required to<br />

pay or instruct payment of any amount described above if, in its reasonable opinion, to do so would not be in<br />

accordance with the Servicing Standard. See also “Risk Factors—Loan Related Risks—Insurance”.<br />

Delegation by the Servicer and the Special Servicer<br />

Each of the Servicer or the Special Servicer may, in certain circumstances, without the consent of the Issuer<br />

or the Note Trustee, sub-contract or delegate its obligations under the Servicing Agreement to any entity,<br />

including an affiliate or associated company. Notwithstanding any sub-contracting or delegation of the<br />

performance of any of its obligations under the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the<br />

case may be, shall not be released or discharged from any liability thereunder and shall remain responsible for<br />

the performance of its obligations under the Servicing Agreement by any sub-contractor or delegate.<br />

132


Servicing Fee, Special Servicing Fee, Liquidation Fee and Workout Fee<br />

Pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, the Issuer and the Subordinate Lenders will pay to the Servicer on<br />

each Payment Date a fee equal to 0.0090 per cent. per annum (plus VAT, if applicable) (the “Servicing Fee”)<br />

which is calculated in the aggregate as a percentage of the outstanding principal balance of the Libra Whole<br />

Loan at the beginning of the Loan Interest Accrual Period to which that Payment Date relates. The rate at which<br />

the Servicing Fee accrues is part of the Administrative Cost Rate (as defined in Condition 5(c)). Following any<br />

termination of Capmark Services Ireland <strong>Limited</strong>’s and Capmark Services UK <strong>Limited</strong>’s appointment as<br />

Servicer, the Servicing Fee will be paid to any substitute servicer appointed; provided that the Servicing Fee<br />

may be payable to any substitute servicer, at a higher rate and if agreed in writing by the Issuer and the Note<br />

Trustee (but which does not exceed the rate then commonly charged by providers of loan servicing services<br />

secured on similar properties in comparable circumstances).<br />

Both before enforcement of the Notes and thereafter, the Issuer and the relevant Subordinate Lender will<br />

pay the Servicing Fee to the Servicer and will reimburse the Servicer for all costs and expenses incurred by the<br />

Servicer in relation to the Libra Whole Loan and the Related Security; and (ii) the Issuer and (with regard to any<br />

Subordinate Debt) the relevant Subordinate Lender will pay the Special Servicing Fee, the Workout Fee and/or<br />

the Liquidation Fee, as applicable, to the Special Servicer. Both before and after an enforcement of the Issuer<br />

Security, the Servicing Fee and the Special Servicing Fee is payable in priority to payments on the Notes. See<br />

“The Structure of the Accounts—The Issuer’s Accounts” above.<br />

Pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, the Issuer and the relevant Subordinate Lender will pay to the Special<br />

Servicer a credit management and agency fee equal to 0.1800 per cent. per annum (plus VAT, if applicable)<br />

(together, the “Special Servicing Fee”) on the outstanding principal balance of the Libra Whole Loan and, as<br />

relevant, the Subordinate Debt, for each day that the Libra Whole Loan and, if applicable, Subordinate Debt is<br />

designated as a Specially Serviced Loan. The Special Servicing Fee will be paid in addition to the Servicing<br />

Fee. The Special Servicing Fee will accrue on a daily basis over such period and shall be payable on each<br />

Payment Date commencing with the Payment Date following the date on which such period begins and ending<br />

on the Payment Date following the end of such period. The Servicing Fee and the Special Servicing Fee with<br />

respect to the Libra Whole Loan or Subordinate Debt will cease to be payable when any of the following events<br />

(each, a “Liquidation Event”) occurs in relation to the Libra Whole Loan:<br />

(a) the Libra Whole Loan is repaid in full;<br />

(b) a Final Recovery Determination is made with respect to the Libra Whole Loan; and<br />

(c) the Libra Loan (and, if applicable, the Subordinate Debt) (i) is repurchased by the Loan Arranger under<br />

the Loan Sale Agreement; or (ii) is purchased pursuant to the Purchase Option or (iii) is purchased by<br />

the Subordinate Lenders pursuant to the terms of the Senior Intercreditor Deed or (iv) is purchased by<br />

the Servicer or Special Servicer as described in “—Purchase Right of the Servicer and the Special<br />

Servicer” below immediately following the receipt of Liquidation Proceeds.<br />

“Final Recovery Determination” means with respect to the Libra Whole Loan, a reasonable determination<br />

by the Special Servicer made in accordance with the Servicing Standard that there has been a recovery of all<br />

Liquidation Proceeds and other payments or recoveries that, in the Special Servicer’s judgment, which judgment<br />

was exercised without regard to any obligation of the Advance Provider or the Backup Advance Provider to<br />

make payments from its own funds, will ultimately be recoverable, such judgment to be exercised in accordance<br />

with the Servicing Standard.<br />

The Special Servicer will be entitled to receive a fee (the “Liquidation Fee”) with respect to a Specially<br />

Serviced Loan based on the proceeds of the liquidation of the Libra Whole Loan or a Property, pay-off or<br />

discounted pay-off of a Specially Serviced Loan or sale of the related Property in connection with an<br />

enforcement of the security, in each case, net of any costs and expenses (such proceeds, “Liquidation<br />

Proceeds”). The amount of the Liquidation Fee payable in respect of a Specially Serviced Loan will be equal to<br />

0.4000 per cent. (plus VAT, if applicable) of the net proceeds. The Liquidation Fee is payable on the Payment<br />

Date following the receipt of Liquidation Proceeds in priority to the Notes; provided, however, that no<br />

Liquidation Fee will be payable in connection with (i) the exercise by the Subordinate Lenders of their right to<br />

acquire the Libra Loan pursuant to the terms of the Senior Intercreditor Deed; provided that (a) the Subordinate<br />

Lender notifies the Special Servicer that it intends to acquire the Libra Loan within 30 days of having been<br />

notified that its right to purchase the Libra Loan has arisen and (b) the Subordinate Lenders acquire the Libra<br />

Loan within 60 days of having so notified the Special Servicer of its intention to purchase, (ii) the purchase of<br />

133


the Libra Loan by the Special Servicer pursuant to the Purchase Option (however, a Liquidation Fee will be<br />

payable where a party other than the Special Servicer acquire(s) a Specially Serviced Loan by way of the<br />

Purchase Option) or (iii) the purchase of the Libra Loan by the Special Servicer or the Servicer in the event the<br />

aggregate outstanding principal balance of the of the Libra Loan is reduced to below 10 per cent. of the<br />

aggregate outstanding balance of the Libra Loan as at the Closing Date, (iv) the repurchase of (or participation<br />

in) the Libra Loan by the Loan Arranger pursuant to the Loan Sale Agreement or (v) any other event specified<br />

in the Servicing Agreement pursuant to which the Liquidation Fee is not payable. Although the Liquidation Fee<br />

is intended to provide the Special Servicer with an incentive to perform its duties better, the payment of any<br />

Liquidation Fee will reduce amounts payable to the Noteholders.<br />

In addition, with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan that becomes a Corrected Loan, a “Workout Fee”<br />

will generally be payable to the Special Servicer, for so long as the Libra Whole Loan remains a Corrected<br />

Loan. The Workout Fee will be calculated by application of a “Workout Fee Rate” equal to 0.4000 per cent.<br />

(plus VAT, if applicable) to each collection of interest and principal in respect of the Libra Whole Loan received<br />

for so long as it remains a Corrected Loan. The Workout Fee will cease to be payable if the Corrected Loan<br />

again becomes a Specially Serviced Loan but will become payable again if and when the Libra Whole Loan<br />

again becomes a Corrected Loan.<br />

The Servicer and the Special Servicer will also be entitled to receive, as additional servicing compensation,<br />

to the extent permitted by applicable law and the related Loan Documents, Loan service transaction fees<br />

(excluding any Prepayment Charges), and any assumption fees, substitution fees or loan modification fees, in<br />

each case to the extent received and not required to be deposited or retained in the Collection Account pursuant<br />

to the Servicing Agreement.<br />

The Servicer and the Special Servicer will be required to pay their respective overhead costs and any<br />

general and administrative expenses incurred by them in connection with their servicing activities under the<br />

Servicing Agreement and will, in general, not be entitled to reimbursement for such expenses. However, on<br />

each Payment Date, the Servicer and the Special Servicer is entitled to be reimbursed (with interest thereon at<br />

the Reimbursement Rate) in respect of certain out-of-pocket costs, expenses and charges properly incurred by it<br />

in the performance of its servicing obligations. Such costs and expenses are payable by the Issuer and the<br />

Subordinate Lenders on the Payment Date following the Loan Interest Period during which they are incurred by,<br />

the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, or in the case of fees and expenses which are paid directly by<br />

the Borrower, on the date which such fees and expenses are collected from the Borrower.<br />

The Servicing Fee, the Special Servicing Fee, the Liquidation Fee, the Workout Fee and other amounts<br />

payable by the Issuer and the Subordinate Lenders to the Servicer and the Special Servicer) are payable in<br />

priority to the Notes and to amounts due to the Issuer or the Subordinate Lenders, both before and after the<br />

enforcement of the Issuer Security. This order of priority has been agreed with a view to procuring the<br />

continuing performance by the Servicer and the Special Servicer of its duties at all times while the Notes are<br />

outstanding.<br />

Termination of Appointment of Servicer or Special Servicer<br />

The Note Trustee may terminate the Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s appointment under the Servicing<br />

Agreement (with notice to the Rating Agencies) upon the occurrence of a termination event in respect of that<br />

entity including, inter alia, a default in the payment on the due date of any payment to be made by it under the<br />

Servicing Agreement or, in certain circumstances, a default in performance of any of its other material<br />

covenants or obligations under the Servicing Agreement or the occurrence of certain insolvency related events<br />

in relation to it.<br />

On the termination of the appointment of the Servicer or the Special Servicer by the Note Trustee, the Note<br />

Trustee may, subject to certain conditions (including confirmation from the Rating Agencies that no Adverse<br />

Rating Event will occur as a result thereof), appoint a substitute servicer or substitute special servicer. If the<br />

appointment of the Special Servicer is terminated in respect of the Libra Whole Loan (otherwise than by reason<br />

of the Libra Whole Loan ceasing to be a Specially Serviced Loan) and a successor is not appointed in<br />

accordance with the Servicing Agreement, the Special Servicer in respect of the Libra Whole Loan shall<br />

continue the duties and obligations of the Special Servicer until such time as a successor is appointed in<br />

accordance with the Servicing Agreement.<br />

Each of the Servicer and the Special Servicer may terminate its appointment upon not less than three<br />

months’ notice to each of the Issuer, the Note Trustee, the Servicer and the Special Servicer (whichever are not<br />

134


purporting to give notice) provided that a qualified substitute servicer or substitute special servicer, as the case<br />

may be, shall have been appointed and agreed to be bound by the Servicing Agreement and the Deed of Charge<br />

and Assignment, such appointment to be effective not later than the date of termination, and provided further<br />

that the Rating Agencies have provided written confirmation that the then applicable ratings of the Notes will<br />

not be downgraded, withdrawn or qualified as a result thereof unless otherwise agreed by an Extraordinary<br />

Resolution passed at a separate meeting of each class of the Noteholders. Such termination shall be without<br />

prejudice to the Servicer’s or, as the case may be, the Special Servicer’s right in respect to any accrued but<br />

unpaid fees and expenses due by the Issuer or the Subordinate Lenders, as applicable.<br />

On termination of its appointment, the Servicer and the Special Servicer, as the case may be, will forthwith<br />

deliver to the Note Trustee or as it may direct, all documents, information, computer stored data and moneys<br />

held by it in relation to its appointment as Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, and will take such<br />

further action as the Note Trustee may reasonably direct to enable the services of the Servicer or the Special<br />

Servicer, as the case may be, to be performed by a substitute thereof.<br />

Notwithstanding the above, if any successor Servicer or Special Servicer is appointed, if any such entity<br />

shall charge a fee that is higher than the then current fee payable to the Servicer or Special Servicer, as<br />

applicable, such increase in fee will not begin to accrue until the next following Loan Interest Accrual Period for<br />

the Libra Loan.<br />

General<br />

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Servicer or the Special Servicer will be liable for any obligation<br />

of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement or any Related Security, have any liability to any third party for the<br />

obligations of the Issuer, any Subordinate Lender under the Senior Intercreditor Deed or the Note Trustee under<br />

the Notes or any of the Transaction Documents or the Subscription Agreement (the Transaction Documents,<br />

together with the Subscription Agreement, the “Relevant Documents”) or have any liability to the Issuer, the<br />

Note Trustee, the Noteholders or any other person for any failure by the Issuer to make any payment due by it<br />

under the Notes or any of the Relevant Documents unless such failure by the Issuer results from a failure by the<br />

Servicer or the Special Servicer as the case may be, to perform its obligations under the Servicing Agreement<br />

because of its negligence or wilful misconduct.<br />

Each of the Servicer and the Special Servicer will be entitled to indemnification from the Issuer for any<br />

loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any actual or threatened legal action relating to the<br />

Relevant Documents or the Libra Loan, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of the<br />

Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s, as applicable, negligence or wilful misconduct or breach of the terms of the<br />

Servicing Agreement.<br />

The Servicers and/or the Special Servicer may become the owner or otherwise hold an interest in the Notes<br />

or any Subordinate Debt with the same rights as it would have if it were not the Servicer or the Special Servicer.<br />

In assessing whether actions of the Servicer or Special Servicer were consistent with the Servicing Standard, no<br />

account will be taken of any such interest of the Servicer or Special Servicer in the Notes or any Subordinate<br />

Debt.<br />

Purchase Right of the Servicer and the Special Servicer<br />

Pursuant to Condition 6(d) (Mandatory Redemption Upon Exercise of Call Option) of the Terms and<br />

Conditions of the Notes, the Servicer or the Special Servicer has the right to purchase the Libra Loan upon,<br />

among other things, a reduction in principal amount outstanding of the Libra Loan to an amount less than 10 per<br />

cent. of its outstanding principal balance as at the Closing Date for the amount necessary for the Issuer to cause<br />

such a redemption of the Notes in accordance with Condition 6(d) (Mandatory Redemption Upon Exercise of<br />

Call Option). Any purchase by the Servicer or the Special Servicer of the Libra Loan in connection with such a<br />

call option would result in prepayment in full of the Notes. Therefore such a prepayment would have an adverse<br />

effect on the yield of the Class X Notes because a termination would have an effect similar to a principal<br />

prepayment in full of the Libra Loan and, as a result, investors in the Class X Notes and any other Notes<br />

purchased at a premium might not fully recoup their initial investment. See “Estimated Average Lives of the<br />

Notes and Assumptions” below.<br />

135


Enforcement of the Notes<br />

If so instructed in writing by the Note Trustee, pursuant to Condition 11 (Enforcement), the Special Servicer<br />

will, on behalf of the Note Trustee, for as long as the Issuer is not the subject of any insolvency proceedings, sell<br />

or otherwise liquidate (or otherwise direct a receiver, liquidator, administrator, or other such party, if one has<br />

been selected by the Note Trustee, to sell or otherwise liquidate) the Libra Loan, its Related Security or any<br />

related MIP Properties.<br />

Upon the Issuer becoming subject to insolvency proceedings (or in any other circumstances where the<br />

Special Servicer is unable to fulfil its obligations under the preceding paragraph, where the Note Trustee is<br />

enforcing the Issuer Security), the Note Trustee will: (a) involve the Special Servicer in all discussions relating<br />

to the sale or liquidation of that portion of the Issuer Security consisting of the Libra Loan, its Related Security<br />

or any related MIP Properties; and (b) allow the Special Servicer to make all strategic decisions relating to the<br />

sale or liquidation of such Issuer Security to the extent that the Note Trustee is involved in such decision<br />

making.<br />

The Special Servicer will be required to enforce (or direct, or make decisions relating to, the enforcement<br />

of) such Issuer Security in a manner that will achieve, in the most timely manner as possible, the maximum<br />

proceeds available in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard. Other than in connection with the<br />

liquidation or sale of such Issuer Security in connection with the insolvency of the Issuer, the Special Servicer<br />

will cause the liquidation of the Libra Loan to be performed pursuant to provisions relating to the Purchase<br />

Option for a Purchase Option Loan, as set forth under “—Enforcement of the Libra Loan” above.<br />

Upon an Extraordinary Resolution of all of the Noteholders directing the same, the Special Servicer’s<br />

involvement relating to the enforcement of any Issuer Security (both before and after the insolvency of the<br />

Issuer) shall cease and the Note Trustee shall re-assume sole responsibility for such enforcement.<br />

CASH MANAGEMENT<br />

Cash Manager<br />

Pursuant to an agreement to be entered into on or prior to the Closing Date between, inter alios, the Issuer,<br />

the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Note Trustee, the Cash Manager and the Operating Bank (the “Cash<br />

Management Agreement”) each of the Issuer and the Note Trustee will appoint ABN AMRO Bank N.V.<br />

(London Branch) (in its capacity as both the “Cash Manager” and the “Operating Bank”) to be its agent to<br />

provide certain cash management services (the “Cash Management Services”) and certain bank account<br />

services. The Cash Manager will undertake with the Issuer and the Note Trustee that in performing the services<br />

to be performed and in exercising its discretion under the Cash Management Agreement, the Cash Manager will<br />

perform such responsibilities and duties diligently and in conformity with the Issuer’s obligations with respect to<br />

the transaction and that it will comply with any directions, orders and instructions which the Issuer or the Note<br />

Trustee may from time to time give to the Cash Manager in accordance with the provisions of the Cash<br />

Management Agreement.<br />

Operating Bank and Issuer’s Accounts<br />

Pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement, the Operating Bank will open and maintain (a) the<br />

Collection Account; (b) the Class X Account; and (c) the Class V Account (together, the “Issuer Accounts” and<br />

each, an “Issuer Account”) and the Issuer Share Capital Proceeds Account, each in the name of the Issuer. The<br />

Operating Bank has agreed to comply with any direction of the Cash Manager or the Note Trustee to effect<br />

payments from the Issuer Accounts if such direction is made in accordance with the mandate governing the<br />

applicable account. In addition, pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement the Operating Bank will open<br />

and maintain the Libra Tranching Account.<br />

Calculation of Amounts and Payments<br />

Under the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer is required to identify funds paid under the Credit Agreement<br />

and any Related Security, as principal, interest and other amounts due thereunder in accordance with the<br />

interests of the Issuer. The Servicer will advise the Cash Manager of these determinations and the Cash<br />

Manager will allocate funds accordingly. In addition, all P&I Advances made by the Advance Provider or the<br />

Backup Advance Provider under the Servicing Agreement (other than Advances in respect of the Libra Whole<br />

Loan which will be paid into the Libra Tranching Account) will be paid into the Collection Account. Once such<br />

funds have been credited to the Collection Account, the Cash Manager is required to apply such funds in<br />

accordance with the Deed of Charge and Assignment and the Cash Management Agreement, each as described<br />

below.<br />

The Cash Manager will be authorised to invest any available funds standing to the credit of the Collection<br />

Account, the Class X Account and the Class V Account in Permitted Investments, in accordance with the<br />

provisions of the Cash Management Agreement. All amounts earned on such investments of amounts held in<br />

the Collection Account, the Class X Account and the Class V Account will be deposited in the Class V Account<br />

(other than amounts earned in respect of prepayments (including Break Costs) or liquidation proceeds which<br />

will form part of Available Funds). All amounts earned on investments of amounts held in the Libra Tranching<br />

Account will be transferred to the Collection Account to be included in Available Funds.<br />

The Cash Manager is required to determine, from information provided by the Servicer, the various<br />

amounts required to pay interest and principal due on the Notes on the forthcoming Payment Date and all other<br />

amounts then payable by the Issuer and the amounts available to make such payments. In addition, the Cash<br />

Manager will calculate the Principal Amount Outstanding and the Note Factor for each class of Notes for the<br />

Interest Accrual Period commencing on the next following Payment Date and the amount of each principal<br />

payment (if any) due on each class of Notes on the next following Payment Date, in each case pursuant to<br />

Condition 6(e) (Principal Amount Outstanding and Note Factor).<br />

The Cash Manager will from time to time pay, on behalf of the Issuer all Periodic Expenses and all other<br />

expenses of the Issuer. The Cash Manager will also pay on behalf of the Issuer (in accordance with the advice<br />

of the Servicer) any amounts owing to the Loan Seller.<br />

The Cash Manager will make all payments required to carry out an optional redemption of Notes pursuant<br />

to Condition 6(c) (Mandatory Redemption for Tax Reasons) or Condition 6(d) (Mandatory Redemption upon<br />

137


Exercise of Call Option), in each case according to the provisions of the relevant Condition. See further “Terms<br />

and Conditions of the Notes”.<br />

Statement to Noteholders<br />

On or prior to each Payment Date, the Cash Manager will be required to provide or make available<br />

electronically to the Note Trustee, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Rating Agencies, the Noteholders, the<br />

Advance Provider, the Controlling Class Representative, the Issuer and its designee, including a financial<br />

market publisher (which is anticipated to initially be Bloomberg, L.P.), if any, (i) a statement substantially in the<br />

form attached hereto as Appendix 2, subject to amendment from time to time in accordance with market<br />

demands (a “Statement to Noteholders”) in respect of each Payment Date in which it will notify the recipients<br />

of, inter alia, amounts received in the Issuer Accounts and payments made with respect to the Notes (other than<br />

the Class V Notes) on such Payment Date, based upon information provided by the Servicer in accordance with<br />

the Servicing Agreement; and (ii) certain information relating to the Properties and the Libra Loan.<br />

In addition, within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, the Cash Manager is<br />

required to furnish, upon request, to each person or entity who at any time during the calendar year was a holder<br />

of a Note, a statement setting forth the principal and interest distributed to the applicable class, aggregated for<br />

the Payment Dates falling in the related calendar year during which that person was a Noteholder, together with<br />

any other information as the Cash Manager deems necessary or desirable, or that a Noteholder reasonably<br />

requests, to enable Noteholders to prepare their tax returns for that calendar year.<br />

Information Available Electronically<br />

The Cash Manager will make available quarterly for the relevant reporting periods, to the Note Trustee, on<br />

behalf of the Noteholders, the Statement to Noteholders via the Cash Manager’s internet website which is<br />

initially located at www.etrustee.net. This internet website does not form part of this Offering Circular. In<br />

addition, the Cash Manager will make the CMSA <strong>Europe</strong>an Investor Reporting Package related to the Libra<br />

Loan available, to the extent that the Cash Manager receives the CMSA <strong>Europe</strong>an Investor Reporting Package<br />

from the Servicer. See “Servicing—Quarterly Reporting”. The CMSA <strong>Europe</strong>an Investor Reporting Package<br />

sets forth information with respect to the Libra Loan and the Properties and will be in the form approved by the<br />

Commercial Mortgage Securities Association (“CMSA”), as such reports may be modified to reflect that the<br />

Properties are located in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, as the case may be. Information will<br />

be accessible only with a password provided by the Cash Manager.<br />

The Cash Management Agreement requires that the Cash Manager make available at its offices (except for<br />

items (e) and (f) below, which will be made available by the Note Trustee or its designee), during normal<br />

business hours, for review by any Noteholder, the Loan Arranger, the Loan Seller, the Issuer, the Servicer, the<br />

Special Servicer, the Rating Agencies, the Controlling Class Representative or any other person to whom the<br />

Cash Manager or the Note Trustee, as applicable, believes the disclosure is appropriate (in each case, to the<br />

extent permitted by the Loan Documents and not otherwise prohibited by applicable law), upon their prior<br />

written request, originals or copies of, among other things, the following items:<br />

(a) the Servicing Agreement and any amendments to that agreement;<br />

(b) all Statements to Noteholders made available to holders of the relevant class of Notes since the Closing<br />

Date;<br />

(c) all accountants’ reports delivered to the Cash Manager since the Closing Date;<br />

(d) the most recent property inspection report prepared by or on behalf of the Servicer or the Special<br />

Servicer and delivered to the Cash Manager in respect of each Property;<br />

(e) copies of the Loan Documents;<br />

(f) any and all modifications, waivers and amendments of the terms of the Libra Loan entered into by the<br />

Servicer or the Special Servicer and delivered to the Note Trustee; and<br />

(g) any and all statements and reports delivered to, or collected by, the Servicer or the Special Servicer<br />

from the Borrower, including the most recent annual property operating statements, tenant schedules<br />

(rent schedules) and Borrower financial statements, but only to the extent that the statements and<br />

reports have been delivered to the Cash Manager.<br />

138


The Cash Manager will be permitted to require payment of a sum sufficient to cover the reasonable costs<br />

and expenses of providing the copies. Pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer will use reasonable<br />

efforts to enforce all provisions of the Loan Documents relating to the submission of financial and property<br />

information.<br />

The Cash Management Agreement will require the Cash Manager subject to certain restrictions (including<br />

execution and delivery of a confidentiality agreement) set forth in the Cash Management Agreement, to provide<br />

certain of the reports or, as well as certain other information received by the Cash Manager, as the case may be,<br />

to any Noteholder, the Manager, the Loan Arranger, the Loan Seller, or any prospective investor so identified by<br />

a beneficial owner of a Note or a Manager, that requests reports or information. However, the Cash Manager<br />

will be permitted to require payment of a sum sufficient to cover the reasonable costs and expenses of providing<br />

copies of these reports or information. Except as otherwise set forth in this paragraph, until the time Definitive<br />

Notes are issued, notices and statements required to be mailed to holders of Notes will be available to the<br />

beneficial owners of the Notes only to the extent they are forwarded by or otherwise available through Euroclear<br />

or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as applicable. Conveyance of notices and other communications by Euroclear or<br />

Clearstream, Luxembourg to their participants, and by participants to beneficial owners of the Notes, will be<br />

governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect<br />

from time to time. Except as otherwise set forth in this paragraph, the Note Trustee, the Cash Manager and the<br />

Issuer are required to recognise as Noteholders only those persons in whose names the Notes are registered on<br />

the books and records of the Registrar.<br />

Pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer is required to deliver to the Cash Manager periodically,<br />

and the Cash Manager is required to make available as described above, a copy of the standard CMSA reports<br />

that make up the CMSA <strong>Europe</strong>an Investor Reporting Package. The CMSA’s website, at which copies of the<br />

standard reports may also be obtained, is located at www.cmbs.org. The CMSA’s internet website does not<br />

form part of this Offering Circular. In addition, pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement, in the event that<br />

the Cash Manager is provided with certain relevant information (as determined in accordance with the Market<br />

Abuse Directive and relevant implementing measures in Ireland) concerning the Libra Loan or Properties, it<br />

will, as soon as reasonably practicable after being provided with such information notify the Issuer thereof,<br />

prepare a summary of such information and deliver it to the Issuer.<br />

The Cash Manager will not make any representations or warranties as to the accuracy or completeness of,<br />

and may disclaim responsibility for, any information made available by the Cash Manager for which it is not the<br />

original source. The Cash Manager may require registration for access to its website.<br />

Delegation by the Cash Manager<br />

The Cash Manager may, in certain circumstances, without the consent of the Issuer or the Note Trustee, as<br />

applicable, sub-contract or delegate its obligations under the relevant Cash Management Agreement.<br />

Notwithstanding any sub-contracting or delegation of the performance of any of its obligations under the Cash<br />

Management Agreement, the Cash Manager will not be released or discharged from any liability thereunder and<br />

will remain responsible for the performance of its obligations under the Cash Management Agreement by any<br />

sub-contractor or delegate.<br />

Fees<br />

Pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement, both before enforcement of the Notes and thereafter (subject<br />

to certain exceptions), the Issuer will pay to the Cash Manager and the Operating Bank on each Payment Date a<br />

cash management fee and an operating bank fee, respectively, as agreed between the Cash Manager or the<br />

Operating Bank and the Issuer and will reimburse the Cash Manager for all costs and expenses properly incurred<br />

by the Cash Manager in the performance of the Cash Management Services, all in priority to payments due on<br />

the most senior class of Notes then outstanding.<br />

Termination of Appointment of the Cash Manager<br />

The appointment of ABN AMRO Bank N.V. (London Branch) as Cash Manager under the Cash<br />

Management Agreement may be terminated by virtue of resignation by the Cash Manager or removal by the<br />

Issuer or the Note Trustee. Any notice of termination or resignation must be copied to the Rating Agencies.<br />

The Issuer or the Note Trustee may terminate such appointment upon not less than three months’ written notice<br />

or immediately upon the occurrence of a termination event, including, inter alia, (i) a failure by the Cash<br />

Manager to make when due a payment required to be made by the Cash Manager on behalf of the Issuer or (ii) a<br />

139


default in the performance of any of its other duties under the relevant cash management agreement which<br />

continues unremedied for ten Business Days, or (iii) a petition is presented or an effective resolution passed for<br />

its winding up or the appointment of an administrator, or similar official. On the termination of a cash manager<br />

by the Issuer or the Note Trustee the Issuer or the Note Trustee may, subject to certain conditions, appoint a<br />

successor cash manager.<br />

The Cash Manager may resign as a cash manager upon not less than three months’ written notice of<br />

resignation to the Issuer, as applicable, the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Bank and the Note<br />

Trustee and the Rating Agencies; provided that a suitably qualified successor cash manager shall have been<br />

appointed.<br />

Termination of Appointment of the Operating Bank<br />

The Cash Management Agreement requires the Operating Bank to be, at all times, a bank to which the<br />

Rating Agencies have assigned the Required Rating. If the Operating Bank ceases to have any of the Required<br />

Ratings, the relevant cash manager will give written notice of such event to, inter alios, the Issuer, the Servicer,<br />

the Special Servicer, the Cash Manager, the Rating Agencies and the Note Trustee, and the relevant cash<br />

manager will, within a reasonable time (in any event, not to exceed 30 days after the ratings downgrade) after<br />

having obtained the prior written consent of the Issuer, the Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Note Trustee<br />

and subject to establishing substantially similar arrangements to those contained in the Cash Management<br />

Agreement procure the transfer of each Issuer Account as the case may be, and each other account held by the<br />

Issuer with the Operating Bank, to another bank which has the Required Rating. If at the time when a transfer of<br />

such account or accounts would otherwise have to be made, there is no other bank which has the Required<br />

Rating or if no bank with the Required Rating agrees to such a transfer, the accounts need not be transferred<br />

until such time as there is a bank which has the Required Rating or a bank with the Required Rating so agrees,<br />

as the case may be, unless the Note Trustee directs otherwise in writing.<br />

“Required Ratings” means a short-term unsecured, unguaranteed and unsubordinated debt rating of “A-<br />

1+” by S&P, “P-1” by Moody’s and “F1” by Fitch or better and a long-term unsecured, unguaranteed and<br />

unsubordinated debt rating of “A1” by Moody’s or better (each a “Required Rating”).<br />

If, other than in the circumstances specified above, the Cash Manager wishes the bank or branch at which<br />

any account of the Issuer is maintained to be changed, the Cash Manager shall obtain the prior written consent<br />

of the Issuer and the Note Trustee and the transfer of such account shall be subject to the same directions and<br />

arrangements as are provided for above.<br />

140


ESTIMATED AVERAGE LIVES OF THE NOTES AND ASSUMPTIONS<br />

Yield<br />

The yield to maturity on any class of Notes will depend upon the price paid by the Noteholders, the interest<br />

rate thereof from time to time, the rate and timing of the distributions of interest and principal in reduction of the<br />

Principal Amount Outstanding of such class and the rate, timing and severity of losses on the Libra Loan and the<br />

extent to which such losses are allocable in reduction of the Principal Amount Outstanding, as applicable, of<br />

such class, as well as prevailing interest rates at the time of payment or loss realisation.<br />

The yield to maturity on the Class X Notes will be highly sensitive to the rate and timing of principal<br />

payments (including by reason of a voluntary or involuntary prepayment, default or liquidation) on the Libra<br />

Loan. Investors in the Class X Notes should fully consider the associated risks, including the risk that a faster<br />

than anticipated rate of principal payments in respect of the Libra Loan could result in a lower than expected<br />

yield on the Class X Notes, and an earlier liquidation of the Libra Loan could result in the failure of such<br />

investors to fully recoup their initial investments.<br />

The rate of distributions of principal in reduction of the Principal Amount Outstanding of any class of<br />

Notes, the aggregate amount of distributions of principal in respect of any class of Notes and the yield to<br />

maturity of any class of Notes will be directly related to the rate of payments of principal on the Libra Loan and<br />

the amount and timing of Borrower defaults. In addition, distributions in reduction of Principal Amount<br />

Outstanding of any class of Notes may result from a repurchase of the Libra Loan made by the Loan Arranger<br />

due to breaches of representations and warranties with respect to the Libra Loan described herein under<br />

“Certain Characteristics of the Libra Loan and the Properties—Loan Sale Agreement”.<br />

The Principal Amount Outstanding of any class of Notes may be reduced without distributions thereon as a<br />

result of the occurrence and allocation of NAI, reducing the maximum amount distributable in respect of such<br />

Notes, if applicable, as well as the amount of interest that would have accrued on such Notes in the absence of<br />

such reduction. In general, an NAI occurs when the aggregate principal balance of a Loan is reduced without an<br />

equal distribution to applicable Noteholders in reduction of the Principal Amount Outstanding of the Notes.<br />

NAI is likely to occur only in connection with a default on the Libra Loan and the liquidation of the related<br />

Properties or a reduction in the principal balance of the Libra Loan in an insolvency of the Borrower.<br />

Because the accrual of interest on the Class X Notes is based upon the Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Class A Notes, Class B Notes, Class C Notes, Class D Notes and the Class E Notes, the yield to maturity on the<br />

Class X Notes will be extremely sensitive to the rate and timing of prepayments of principal (including both<br />

voluntary and involuntary prepayments, delinquencies, defaults and liquidations) on the Libra Loan and any<br />

repurchase (or participation) with respect to breaches of representations and warranties with respect to the Libra<br />

Loan to the extent such payments of principal are allocated to each such class in reduction of the Principal<br />

Amount Outstanding thereof. The rate at which voluntary prepayments occur on the Libra Loan will be affected<br />

by a variety of factors, including, without limitation, the terms of the Libra Loan, the level of prevailing interest<br />

rates, the availability of mortgage credit, the occurrence of casualties or natural disasters and economic,<br />

demographic, tax, legal and other factors, and no representation is made as to the anticipated rate of<br />

prepayments on the Libra Loan.<br />

Noteholders are entitled to receive distributions of quarterly payments when due to the extent they are either<br />

covered by a P&I Advance or actually received. However, any defaulted quarterly payment for which no such<br />

P&I Advance is made will tend to extend the weighted average lives of the Notes, whether or not a permitted<br />

extension of the maturity date of the Libra Loan has been effected.<br />

The rate of payments (including voluntary and involuntary prepayments) on mortgage loans is influenced<br />

by a variety of economic, geographic, social and other factors, including the level of mortgage interest rates and<br />

the rate at which borrowers default on their mortgage loans. The terms of the Libra Loan (in particular, the term<br />

of any prepayments, the extent to which Prepayment Charges are due with respect to any principal prepayment<br />

and the right of the mortgagee to apply casualty and compulsory purchase proceeds to prepay the Libra Loan)<br />

may affect the rate of principal payments on the Libra Loan, and consequently, the yield to maturity of the<br />

Classes of Notes. See “Certain Characteristics of the Libra Loan and the Properties” herein.<br />

In addition, disproportionate principal payments (whether resulting from differences in scheduled balloon<br />

payments or full or partial prepayments) on the Libra Loan may affect the yield on the Notes. Balloon payments<br />

141


will have a greater effect on the principal payments on the Notes, and therefore on their yield, than would<br />

principal payments on non-balloon mortgage loans.<br />

Additionally, if the Advance Provider or the Backup Advance Provider, the Servicer or the Special Servicer<br />

is reimbursed out of general collections on the Libra Loan for an Advance that it has determined is not<br />

recoverable out of collections on the Libra Loan, then that drawing or advance (together with accrued interest<br />

thereon) will be deemed, to the fullest extent possible, to be reimbursed first out of payments and other<br />

collections of principal otherwise distributable on the Notes, prior to being deemed reimbursed out of payments<br />

and other collections of interest otherwise distributable on the Notes.<br />

The Libra Loan requires the payment of Prepayment Charges and/or Yield Maintenance Premia, which<br />

could be a deterrent to prepayments. Although the payment of a Prepayment Charge would be required in<br />

connection with a voluntary prepayment of the Libra Loan during certain periods of time, there can be no<br />

assurance that the Borrower would refrain from prepaying the Libra Loan due to the existence of such<br />

Prepayment Charges or that such Prepayment Charges would be held to be enforceable if challenged.<br />

The timing of changes in the rate of prepayment on the Libra Loan may significantly affect the actual yield<br />

to maturity experienced by an investor even if the average rate of principal payments experienced over time is<br />

consistent with such investor’s expectation. In general, the earlier a prepayment of principal on the Libra Loan,<br />

the greater the effect on such investor’s yield to maturity. As a result, the effect on such investor’s yield of<br />

principal payments occurring at a rate higher (or lower) than the rate anticipated by the investor during the<br />

period immediately following the issuance of the Notes would not be fully offset by a subsequent like reduction<br />

(or increase) in the rate of principal payments.<br />

The Libra Loan accrues interest at a floating rate.<br />

The Issuer is not aware of any publicly available statistics that set forth principal prepayment experience or<br />

prepayment forecasts of commercial mortgage loans over an extended period of time, either fixed-rate loans or<br />

floating rate mortgage loans. The rate of principal prepayments with respect to floating rate mortgage loans has<br />

fluctuated in recent years. As is the case with fixed-rate mortgage loans, floating rate mortgage loans may be<br />

subject to a greater rate of principal prepayments in a declining interest rate environment. For example, if<br />

prevailing interest rates fall significantly, floating rate mortgage loans could be subject to higher prepayment<br />

rates than if prevailing interest rates remain constant because the availability of fixed-rate mortgage loans at<br />

competitive interest rates may encourage mortgagors to re-finance their floating rate mortgage loans to “lock in”<br />

lower fixed interest rate. No assurances can be given as to the rate of prepayments under the Libra Loan in<br />

stable or changing interest rate environments.<br />

The yield on any class of Notes could also be affected by trends in the level of LIBOR and the incurrence of<br />

prepayments and defaults.<br />

No representation is made as to the particular factors that will affect the rate of prepayment of the Libra<br />

Loan, the relative importance of any such factors, the percentage of the principal balance of the Libra Loan that<br />

will be paid as at any date or the overall rate of prepayments on the Libra Loan. An investor is urged to make an<br />

investment decision with respect to any class of Notes based on the anticipated yield to maturity of such class of<br />

Notes resulting from its purchase price and such investor’s own determination as to anticipated loan prepayment<br />

rates under a variety of scenarios. The extent to which any class of Notes is purchased at a discount or a<br />

premium and the degree to which the timing of payments on such class of Notes is sensitive to prepayments will<br />

determine the extent to which the yield to maturity of such class of Notes may vary from the anticipated yield.<br />

An investor should carefully consider the associated risks, including, in the case of any Notes purchased at a<br />

discount, the risk that a slower than anticipated rate of principal payments on the Libra Loan could result in an<br />

actual yield to such investor that is lower than the anticipated yield and, in the case of any Notes purchased at a<br />

premium, the risk that a faster than anticipated rate of principal payments could result in an actual yield to such<br />

investor that is lower than the anticipated yield.<br />

An investor should consider the risk that rapid rates of prepayments on the Libra Loan, and therefore of<br />

amounts distributable in reduction of the principal balance of Notes, may coincide with periods of low<br />

prevailing interest rates. During such periods, the effective interest rates on securities in which an investor may<br />

choose to reinvest such amounts distributed to it may be lower than the applicable pass-through rate.<br />

Conversely, slower rates of prepayments on the Libra Loan, and therefore, of amounts distributable in reduction<br />

of principal balance of the Notes entitled to distributions of principal, may coincide with periods of high<br />

prevailing interest rates. During such periods, the amount of principal distributions resulting from prepayments<br />

142


available to an investor in such Notes for reinvestment at such high prevailing interest rates may be relatively<br />

small.<br />

The effective yield to holders of Notes will be lower than the yield otherwise produced by the applicable<br />

interest rate and applicable purchase prices because while interest will accrue during each Interest Accrual<br />

Period, the distribution of such interest will not be made until the Payment Date immediately following such<br />

Interest Accrual Period, and principal paid on any Payment Date will not bear interest during the period from the<br />

end of such Interest Accrual Period to the Payment Date that follows.<br />

Maturity Date<br />

The “Maturity Date” for each class of Notes is the Payment Date occurring in January 2017, which is the<br />

Payment Date that is seven years after the latest maturity date of the Libra Loan.<br />

Because the Libra Loan may be prepaid prior to maturity, it is possible that the Principal Amount<br />

Outstanding of each class of Notes will be reduced to zero significantly earlier than the Maturity Date.<br />

However, delinquencies on the Libra Loan could result in final distributions in reduction of the Principal<br />

Amount Outstanding of one or more Classes after the Maturity Date of their respective Notes.<br />

Weighted Average Life of Notes<br />

Weighted Average Life (as defined below) refers to the average amount of time that will elapse from the<br />

date of issuance to the date of distribution or allocation to the investor of each sterling in reduction of principal<br />

of their respective Notes. The weighted average lives of the Notes will be influenced by, among other things,<br />

the rate at which principal of the Libra Loan is paid, which may occur as a result of voluntary or involuntary<br />

prepayments or liquidations.<br />

The Weighted Average Lives of the Notes may also be affected to the extent that additional distributions in<br />

reduction of the Principal Amount Outstanding of such Notes occur as a result of the repurchase or purchase of<br />

the Libra Loan from the Issuer as described under “Certain Characteristics of the Libra Loan and the<br />

Properties—Sale Agreements” or Conditions 6(c) (Mandatory Redemption for Tax Reasons) and 6(d)<br />

(Mandatory Redemption upon Exercise of Call Option) under the “Terms and Conditions of the Notes” herein.<br />

Such a repurchase or purchase from the Issuer will have the same effect on distributions to the holders of Notes<br />

as if the Libra Loan had prepaid in full, except that no Prepayment Charges are made in respect thereof. The<br />

tables of “Percentage of the Initial Principal Amount Outstanding for each Designated Scenario” set forth<br />

below indicate the weighted average life of each class of Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V<br />

Notes) and set forth the percentage of the initial Principal Amount Outstanding of such Notes that would be<br />

outstanding after each of the dates shown. The Modelling Assumptions made in preparing the previous and<br />

following tables are expected to vary, and may vary significantly, from the actual performance of the Libra<br />

Loan. It is highly unlikely that principal of the Libra Loan will be repaid consistent with the assumptions<br />

underlying any one of the Scenarios. Investors are urged to conduct their own analysis concerning the<br />

likelihood that the Libra Loan may pay or prepay on any particular date.<br />

It is highly unlikely that principal of the Libra Loan will be repaid in a manner consistent with the<br />

assumptions underlying any of the Scenarios. The Libra Loan will not have all of the characteristics assumed<br />

for purposes of the Scenarios. Yield will be affected by prepayment rates and may differ significantly from the<br />

Modelling Assumptions. There can be no assurance that the pre-tax yields on the Notes will correspond to any<br />

of the pre-tax yields or discounted margins, as applicable, shown herein or that the aggregate purchase prices of<br />

the Notes will be as assumed. Investors must make their own decisions as to the appropriate prepayment<br />

assumptions to be used in deciding whether to purchase the Notes.<br />

For purposes of preparing the tables, it was assumed that (i) the initial Principal Amount Outstanding of,<br />

and the interest rates for, each class of Notes are as set forth herein, (ii) the scheduled quarterly payments for the<br />

Libra Loan are based on stated quarterly interest payments, without modification over the life of the Libra Loan,<br />

(iii) all scheduled quarterly payments (including payments due on the maturity date of the Libra Loan) are<br />

assumed to be timely received on the Due Date of each quarter commencing in July <strong>2007</strong>, (iv) there are no<br />

delinquencies, losses or defaults in respect of the Libra Loan, there are no extensions of maturity in respect of<br />

the Libra Loan (except as indicated in the Scenarios set out below) and there are no casualties or compulsory<br />

purchases affecting the Properties, (v) no prepayments are made on the Libra Loan (except as indicated in the<br />

Scenarios set out below), (vi) the Libra Loan accrues interest under the method as specified herein, (vii) the<br />

Servicer or the Special Servicer does not exercise its right of optional termination described herein and in<br />

143


Condition 6(d) (Mandatory Redemption Upon Exercise of Call Option) of the “Terms and Conditions of the<br />

Notes”, (viii) the Libra Loan is not required to be repurchased by the Loan Arranger, (ix) there are no additional<br />

unanticipated administrative expenses, no P&I Advances or other Servicing Advances are made, (x) principal<br />

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES<br />

General<br />

Each class of Notes will be represented by one or more Regulation S Global Notes and one or more Rule<br />

144A Global Notes in fully registered form without coupons attached (all such Global Notes being herein<br />

referred to as, the “Global Notes”, each, a “Global Note”). Each Global Note will be serially numbered with an<br />

identifying number which will be recorded in the Register which the Issuer shall procure will be kept by the<br />

Registrar at its specified office. The Global Notes will be deposited with ABN AMRO Bank N.V. (London<br />

Branch) as common depository (the “Common Depository”) for the account of Euroclear and Clearstream,<br />

Luxembourg, and will be registered in the name of the Common Depository (or its nominee).<br />

Upon confirmation by the Common Depository that it has custody of the Regulation S Global Notes and the<br />

Rule 144A Global Notes, Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, will record Book-Entry<br />

Interests representing beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Notes and the Rule 144A Global Notes<br />

relating thereto.<br />

Book-Entry Interests in respect of Global Notes will be recorded in original denominations of £50,000 and<br />

integral multiples of £1,000 in excess thereof with the exception of the Class E Notes, which will be recorded in<br />

denominations of £50,000 and integral multiples of £1 in excess thereof). Ownership of Book-Entry Interests in<br />

respect of Global Notes will be limited to persons that have accounts with Euroclear or Clearstream,<br />

Luxembourg (“participants”) or persons that hold interests in the Book-Entry Interests through participants<br />

(“indirect participants”), including, as applicable, banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear<br />

through or maintain a custodial relationship with Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg either directly or<br />

indirectly. Indirect participants shall also include persons that hold beneficial interests through such indirect<br />

participants. Book-Entry Interests will not be held in definitive form. Instead, Euroclear and Clearstream,<br />

Luxembourg, as applicable, will credit the participants’ accounts with the respective Book-Entry Interests<br />

beneficially owned by such participants on each of their respective book-entry registration and transfer systems.<br />

The accounts to be credited shall be designated by the Common Depository. Ownership of Book-Entry Interests<br />

will be shown on, and transfers of Book-Entry Interests or the interests therein will be effected only through,<br />

records maintained by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg (with respect to the interests of indirect<br />

participants) and on the records of participants or indirect participants (with respect to the interests of their<br />

participants). The laws of some jurisdictions or other applicable rules may require that certain purchasers of<br />

securities take physical delivery of such securities in definitive form. The foregoing limitations may therefore<br />

impair the ability of persons within such jurisdiction or otherwise subject to the laws thereof to own, transfer or<br />

pledge Book-Entry Interests.<br />

Except as set forth below under “—Issuance of Definitive Notes”, participants or indirect participants will<br />

not be entitled to have Notes registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery<br />

of Notes in definitive registered form and will not be considered the holders thereof under the Note Trust Deed.<br />

Accordingly, each person holding a Book-Entry Interest must rely on the rules and procedures of the Common<br />

Depository and Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, and indirect participants must rely<br />

on the procedures of the participant or indirect participants through which such person owns its interest in the<br />

relevant Book-Entry Interests to exercise any rights and obligations of a holder of Notes under the Note Trust<br />

Deed.<br />

Unlike legal owners or holders of the Notes, holders of the Book-Entry Interests will not have the right<br />

under the Note Trust Deed to act upon solicitations by the Issuer of consents or requests by the Issuer for<br />

waivers or other actions from Noteholders. Instead a holder of Book-Entry Interests will be permitted to act<br />

only to the extent it has received appropriate proxies to do so from Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg (as<br />

the case may be) and, if applicable, their participants. There can be no assurance that procedures implemented<br />

for the granting of such proxies will be sufficient to enable holders of Book-Entry Interests to vote on any<br />

requested actions on a timely basis. Similarly, upon the occurrence of a Note Event of Default under the Notes,<br />

holders of Book-Entry Interests will be restricted to acting through Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg and the<br />

Common Depository unless and until Definitive Notes are issued in accordance with the Terms and Conditions.<br />

There can be no assurance that the procedures to be implemented by Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg and<br />

the Common Depository under such circumstances will be adequate to ensure the timely exercise of remedies<br />

under the Note Trust Deed.<br />

Purchasers of Book-Entry Interests in a Global Note pursuant to Rule 144A will hold Book-Entry Interests<br />

in the Rule 144A Global Note relating thereto. Investors may hold their Book-Entry Interests in respect of a<br />

150


Rule 144A Global Note directly through Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg or indirectly through<br />

organisations which are account holders in such systems. All Book-Entry Interests in the Rule 144A Global<br />

Notes held by the Common Depository will be subject to the procedures and requirements of Euroclear and<br />

Clearstream, Luxembourg.<br />

Purchasers of Book-Entry Interests in a Global Note pursuant to Regulation S will hold Book-Entry<br />

Interests in the Regulation S Global Note relating thereto. Investors may hold their Book-Entry Interests in<br />

respect of a Regulation S Global Note directly through Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg (in accordance<br />

with the provisions set forth under “—Transfer and Transfer Restrictions” below), if they are account holders in<br />

such systems, or indirectly through organisations which are account holders in such systems. After the<br />

expiration of the Note Distribution Compliance Period but not earlier, Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg<br />

will hold Book-Entry Interests in each Regulation S Global Note on behalf of their account holders through<br />

securities accounts in the respective account holders’ names on Euroclear’s and Clearstream, Luxembourg’s<br />

respective book-entry registration and transfer systems.<br />

Although Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg have agreed to certain procedures to facilitate transfer of<br />

Book-Entry Interests among account holders of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, they are under no<br />

obligation to perform or continue to perform such procedures, and such procedures may be discontinued at any<br />

time. None of the Issuer, the Note Trustee, the Common Depository or any of their respective agents will have<br />

any responsibility for the performance by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg or their respective participants<br />

or account holders of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations.<br />

Payments on Global Notes<br />

Payment of principal and interest on the Global Notes will be made to the registered holder thereof upon<br />

presentation or surrender of the Global Note at the specified office of the Paying Agent. All such amounts will,<br />

subject as provided below, be payable by a Paying Agent, in sterling. All such payments will be distributed<br />

without deduction or withholding for any taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges of whatever<br />

nature except as may be required by law. If any such deduction or withholding is required to be made, then<br />

neither the Issuer nor any other person will be obliged to pay additional amounts in respect thereof.<br />

In accordance with the rules and procedures for the time being of Euroclear or, as the case may be,<br />

Clearstream, Luxembourg, after receipt of any payment from the Paying Agent, the respective systems will<br />

promptly credit their participants’ accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective<br />

ownership of Book-Entry Interests as shown in the records of Euroclear or of Clearstream, Luxembourg. None<br />

of the Issuer, the Note Trustee or any other agent of the Issuer or the Note Trustee will have any responsibility<br />

or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of a participant’s ownership of<br />

Book-Entry Interests or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to a participant’s<br />

ownership of Book-Entry Interests.<br />

A record of each payment made on a Global Note, distinguishing between any payment of principal and/or<br />

payment of interest, will be recorded in the Register in respect of such Global Note by the Registrar and such<br />

record shall be prima facie evidence that the payment in question has been made.<br />

Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg<br />

Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg have informed the Issuer as follows:<br />

Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg each hold securities for the accountholders and facilitate the<br />

clearance and settlement of securities transactions by electronic book-entry transfer between their respective<br />

accountholders, thereby eliminating the need for physical movements of certificates and any risk from lack of<br />

simultaneous transfers of securities.<br />

Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg each provide various services including safekeeping,<br />

administration, clearance and settlement of internationally traded securities and securities lending and<br />

borrowing. Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg each also deal with domestic securities markets in several<br />

countries through established depository and custodial relationships. The respective systems of Euroclear and of<br />

Clearstream, Luxembourg have established an electronic bridge between their two systems across which their<br />

respective accountholders may settle trades with each other.<br />

151


Accountholders in both Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg are worldwide financial institutions<br />

including underwriters, securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies and clearing corporations.<br />

Indirect access to both Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg is available to other institutions that clear<br />

through or maintain a custodial relationship with an accountholder of either system.<br />

An accountholder’s overall contractual relations with either Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg are<br />

governed by the respective rules and operating procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg and any<br />

applicable laws. Both Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg act under such rules and operating procedures<br />

only on behalf of their respective accountholders, and have no record of or relationship with persons holding<br />

through their respective accountholders.<br />

The Issuer understands that under existing industry practices, if either the Issuer or Note Trustee requests<br />

any action of owners of Book-Entry Interests or if an owner of a Book-Entry Interest desires to give instructions<br />

or take any action that a holder is entitled to give or take under the Note Trust Deed, Euroclear and Clearstream,<br />

Luxembourg, as the case may be, would authorise the participants owning the relevant Book-Entry Interests to<br />

give instructions or to take such action, and such participants would authorise indirect participants to give<br />

instructions or take such action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of such indirect participants.<br />

Transfer and Transfer Restrictions<br />

All transfers of Book-Entry Interests will be recorded in accordance with the book-entry systems<br />

maintained by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as applicable, pursuant to customary procedures<br />

established by each respective system and its participants. See “—General” above.<br />

Each Rule 144A Global Note will bear a legend substantially identical to that appearing in paragraph (c)<br />

under “Transfer Restrictions”, and no Rule 144A Global Note nor any Book-Entry Interest in such Rule 144A<br />

Global Note may be transferred except in compliance with the transfer restrictions set forth in such legend. A<br />

Book-Entry Interest in a Rule 144A Global Note of one class may be transferred to a person who takes delivery<br />

in the form of a Book-Entry Interest in the Regulation S Global Note of the same class, whether before or after<br />

the expiration of the Note Distribution Compliance Period, only upon receipt by the Common Depository of a<br />

written certification from the transferor to the effect that such transfer is being made in accordance with<br />

Regulation S or Rule 144 under the Securities Act (if available), and in each case in accordance with applicable<br />

securities laws of the United States or any other jurisdiction and that, if such transfer occurs prior to the<br />

expiration of the Note Distribution Compliance Period, the interest transferred will be held immediately<br />

thereafter through Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg.<br />

Each Regulation S Global Note will bear a legend substantially identical to that appearing in paragraph (e)<br />

under “Transfer Restrictions”. Until and including the 40 th day after the later of the commencement of the<br />

offering of the Notes and the closing date for the offering of the Notes (the “Note Distribution Compliance<br />

Period”), Book-Entry Interests in a Regulation S Global Note may be held only through Euroclear or<br />

Clearstream, Luxembourg, unless transfer and delivery is made through a Rule 144A Global Note of the same<br />

class. Prior to the expiration of the Note Distribution Compliance Period, a Book-Entry Interest in a Regulation<br />

S Global Note of one class may be transferred to a person who takes delivery in the form of a Book-Entry<br />

Interest in a Rule 144A Global Note of the same class only upon receipt by the Common Depository of written<br />

certification from the transferor to the effect that such transfer is being made to a person whom the transferor<br />

reasonably believes is purchasing for its own account or for an account or accounts as to which it exercises sole<br />

investment discretion and that such person and such account or accounts is a qualified institutional buyer within<br />

the meaning of Rule 144A, in each case in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A and in<br />

accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or any other jurisdiction.<br />

Any Book-Entry Interest in a Regulation S Global Note of one class that is transferred to a person who<br />

takes delivery in the form of a Book-Entry Interest in a Rule 144A Global Note of the same class will, upon<br />

transfer, cease to be represented by a Book-Entry Interest in such Regulation S Global Note and will become<br />

represented by a Book-Entry Interest in such Rule 144A Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject<br />

to all transfer restrictions and other procedures applicable to Book-Entry Interests in a Rule 144A Global Note<br />

for as long as it remains such a Book-Entry Interest. Any Book-Entry Interest in a Rule 144A Global Note of<br />

one class that is transferred to a person who takes delivery in the form of a Book-Entry Interest in the<br />

Regulation S Global Note of the same class will, upon transfer, cease to be represented by a Book-Entry Interest<br />

in such Rule 144A Global Note and will become represented by a Book-Entry Interest in such Regulation S<br />

Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer restrictions and other procedures<br />

152


applicable to Book-Entry Interests in a Regulation S Global Note as long as it remains such a Book-Entry<br />

Interest.<br />

In order to comply with rules of the United States Department of Labor under the Employee Retirement<br />

Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), the Notes may not be transferred to any retirement plan<br />

or other employee benefit plan or arrangement that is subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the U.S. Internal<br />

Revenue Code, except under the conditions described herein under “U.S. ERISA Considerations”. Each owner<br />

of a beneficial interest in the Notes will be deemed (and, in certain cases, required) to represent that it complies<br />

with such transfer restrictions and any transfer in violation of such restrictions will be void ab initio. See<br />

“Transfer Restrictions” and “U.S. ERISA Considerations” herein.<br />

only on the later of the termination of the Note Distribution Compliance Period as defined in Regulation S and<br />

30 days after the occurrence of any of the following:<br />

(a) both Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg are closed for business for a continuous period of 14<br />

becomes effective on or after the Closing Date, the Issuer or any Paying Agent is or will be required to<br />

make any deduction or withholding from any payment in respect of the Notes which would not be<br />

(i) both Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg are closed for business for a continuous period of 14<br />

days (other than by reason of holiday, statutory or otherwise) or announce an intention<br />

permanently to cease business or do in fact do so and no alternative clearing system satisfactory to<br />

the Note Trustee is available; or<br />

(ii) the owner of a Book-Entry Interest requests such exchange in writing delivered through either<br />

Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg to the Issuer, following a Note Event of Default (as defined<br />

in Condition 10(a) (Eligible Noteholders)); or<br />

(iii) as a result of any amendment to, or change in, the laws or regulations of Ireland, the United<br />

Kingdom or any other jurisdiction (or of any political subdivision thereof or of any authority<br />

therein or thereof having the power to tax), or in the interpretation or administration by a revenue<br />

authority or a court of such laws or regulations, which becomes effective on or after the Closing<br />

withholding from any payment in respect of the Notes which would not be required were the Notes<br />

to the Note Trustee.<br />

If Definitive Notes are issued:<br />

exchanged by the Issuer for Definitive Notes (“Regulation S Definitive Notes”) of that class; and<br />

(ii) the Book-Entry Interests representing the Rule 144A Global Note of each class shall be exchanged<br />

by the Issuer for Definitive Notes (“Rule 144A Definitive Notes”) of that class.<br />

The aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Definitive Notes and the Rule 144A Definitive<br />

Notes of each class will be equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Global Note or<br />

Rule 144A Global Note, as the case may be, for the corresponding class, subject to and in accordance<br />

with the Conditions, the Agency Agreement, the Note Trust Deed and the related Global Note.<br />

(b) Title to and Transfer of Definitive Notes<br />

Title to a Definitive Note will pass upon registration in the register which the Issuer will cause to be<br />

kept by the Registrar at its specified office. Definitive Notes will be issued in the minimum<br />

denomination of £50,000 and any integral multiple of £1,000 in excess thereof (with the exception of<br />

the Class E Notes, which will be recorded in denominations of £50,000 and internal multiples of £1 in<br />

excess thereof), provided that the minimum subscription therefor shall be no less than £100,000 (with<br />

the exception of the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes for which the minimum subscription shall be<br />

£50,000), and will be serially numbered. Definitive Notes may be transferred in whole or in part<br />

(provided that any partial transfer relates to a Definitive Note in the original principal amount of<br />

£50,000 and any integral multiple of £1,000 in excess thereof) upon surrender of the related Definitive<br />

Note, at the specified office of the Registrar. In the case of a transfer of part only of a Definitive Note,<br />

156


a new Definitive Note in respect of the balance not transferred will be issued to the transferor. All<br />

transfers of Definitive Notes are subject to any restrictions on transfer set forth in such Definitive Notes<br />

and the detailed regulations concerning transfers set out in the Agency Agreement and the Note Trust<br />

Deed.<br />

Each new Definitive Note to be issued upon the transfer of a Definitive Note will, within five Business<br />

Days (as defined in Condition 5(b) (Payment Dates and Interest Accrual Periods)) of receipt of such<br />

Definitive Note (duly endorsed for transfer) at the specified office of the Registrar, be available for<br />

collection at the specified office of the Registrar or be posted at the risk of the holder entitled to such<br />

new Definitive Note to such address as may be specified in the form of transfer.<br />

Registration of a Definitive Note on transfer will be effected without charge by or on behalf of the<br />

Issuer or the Registrar, but upon payment of (or the giving of such indemnity as the Registrar may<br />

require in respect of) any tax or other government charges which may be imposed in relation to it and<br />

only if the relevant Definitive Note is presented or surrendered for transfer and endorsed or<br />

accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by<br />

the transferor Noteholder (or his attorney duly authorised in writing) and upon receipt of such<br />

certificates and other documents as shall be necessary to evidence compliance with the restrictions on<br />

transfer contained in the relevant Definitive Note, the Note Trust Deed and the Agency Agreement.<br />

No transfer of a Definitive Note will be registered in the period beginning 15 Business Days before, or<br />

ending on the fifth Business Day after, each Payment Date (as defined in Condition 5(b) (Payment<br />

Dates and Interest Accrual Periods)).<br />

For the purpose of these Conditions:<br />

(a) the “holder” or “Noteholder” of a Note means (a) in respect of each Global Note, the registered holder<br />

thereof, and (b) in respect of any Definitive Note issued under Condition 2(a) (Issue of Definitive<br />

Notes) above, the person in whose name such Definitive Note is registered, subject as provided in<br />

Condition 7(b) (Definitive Notes); and related expressions shall be construed accordingly; and<br />

(b) references herein to “Notes” shall include the Global Notes and the Definitive Notes.<br />

3. Status, Security and Priority<br />

(a) Status and Relationship among the Notes<br />

(i) The Notes constitute direct, secured and limited recourse obligations of the Issuer and are (other<br />

than the Class V Notes and the Class X Notes (as to principal only)) secured by the Issuer Security<br />

(as more particularly described in Condition 3(b) (Security and Priority of Payments) below). In<br />

addition, the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes are secured by amounts in the Class X Account<br />

and the Class V Account, respectively. The Notes of each class rank pari passu and without<br />

preference or priority among the Notes of the same class. With respect to the Class X Notes, such<br />

ranking will relate only to payments of interest and, with respect to the Class V Notes, such<br />

ranking will relate only to payments of the Class V Amount.<br />

(ii) Save as described in Condition 6 (Redemption and Cancellation), both before and after the service<br />

of a Note Enforcement Notice, certain payments will be subordinated as follows: repayments of<br />

principal and payments of interest on the Class E Notes will be subordinated to repayments of<br />

principal and payments of interest on the Class A Notes, the Class X Notes (with respect to interest<br />

only), the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes; repayments of principal and<br />

payments of interest on the Class D Notes will be subordinated to repayments of principal and<br />

payments of interest on the Class A Notes, the Class X Notes (with respect to interest only), the<br />

Class B Notes and the Class C Notes; repayments of principal and payments of interest on the<br />

Class C Notes will be subordinated to repayments of principal and payments of interest on the<br />

Class A Notes, the Class X Notes (with respect to interest only) and the Class B Notes; repayments<br />

of principal and payments of interest on the Class B Notes will be subordinated to repayments of<br />

principal and payments of interest on the Class A Notes and the Class X Notes (with respect to<br />

interest only); repayments of principal on the Class A Notes will be subordinated to payments of<br />

interest on the Class A Notes and the Class X Notes; and payments of interest on the Class A<br />

Notes and the Class X Notes will rank pari passu and without preference or priority amongst<br />

157


themselves. Both before and after enforcement of the Issuer Security, the Class X Notes, with<br />

respect to payments of principal, are entitled to the benefit of additional security (which may not<br />

be used to pay principal or interest on any other Notes) and, therefore, the Class X Notes do not<br />

rank against any other Notes with respect to such principal amounts. Both before and after the<br />

service of a Note Enforcement Notice, the Class V Notes, with respect to payments of principal<br />

and interest, are also entitled to the benefit of additional security (which may not be used to pay<br />

principal or interest on any other Notes) and, therefore, the Class V Notes do not rank against any<br />

other Notes with respect to such principal and interest amounts.<br />

(iii) The Note Trust Deed contains provisions requiring the Note Trustee to have regard to the interests<br />

of the holders of Class A Notes, Class X Notes, Class B Notes, Class C Notes, Class D Notes,<br />

Class E Notes and Class V Notes equally as regards all powers, trusts, authorities, duties and<br />

discretions of the Note Trustee (except where expressly provided otherwise), provided that:<br />

(A) if, in the Note Trustee’s opinion, there is a conflict between the interests of:<br />

(1) the Class A Noteholders and the Class X Noteholders (for so long as the Class A Notes<br />

and Class X Notes are outstanding); and<br />

(2) the Class B Noteholders and/or the Class C Noteholders and/or the Class D Noteholders<br />

and/or the Class E Noteholders,<br />

then the Note Trustee shall have regard only to the interests of the Class A Noteholders and<br />

the Class X Noteholders (and in the event of a conflict arising between the Class A<br />

Noteholders and the Class X Noteholders then the Note Trustee shall have regard only to the<br />

interests of the Class A Noteholders);<br />

(B) if, in the Note Trustee’s opinion, there is a conflict between the interests of:<br />

(1) the Class B Noteholders (for so long as the Class B Notes are outstanding); and<br />

(2) the Class C Noteholders and/or the Class D Noteholders and/or the Class E Noteholders,<br />

then the Note Trustee shall, subject to (A) above, have regard only to the interests of the Class<br />

B Noteholders;<br />

(C) if, in the Note Trustee’s opinion, there is a conflict between the interests of:<br />

(1) the Class C Noteholders (for so long as the Class C Notes are outstanding); and<br />

(2) the Class D Noteholders and/or the Class E Noteholders,<br />

then the Note Trustee shall, subject to (A) and (B) above, have regard only to the interests of<br />

the Class C Noteholders;<br />

(D) if in the Note Trustee’s opinion, there is a conflict between the interests of:<br />

(1) the Class D Noteholders (for so long as there are any Class D Notes outstanding); and<br />

(2) the Class E Noteholders,<br />

then the Note Trustee shall, subject to (A), (B) and (C) above, have regard only to the interests<br />

of the Class D Noteholders; and<br />

(E) if in the Note Trustee’s opinion, there is a conflict between the interests of:<br />

(1) the Class V Noteholders (for so long as there are any Class V Notes outstanding); and<br />

(2) the Noteholders of any other class of Notes,<br />

then the Note Trustee shall have regard only to the interests of such other class or classes of<br />

Notes,<br />

158


provided that paragraphs (A) to (E) above shall not apply in the case of any powers, trusts,<br />

authorities, duties or discretions of the Note Trustee in relation to which it is expressly stated<br />

that they may be exercised by the Note Trustee only if in its opinion the interests of each Class<br />

would not be materially prejudiced thereby.<br />

So long as any of the Notes remain outstanding, the Note Trustee is not required to have<br />

regard to the interests of any other persons entitled to the benefit of the Issuer Security or, at<br />

any time, any other person.<br />

(iv) The Note Trust Deed contains provisions limiting the powers of (i) the Class B Noteholders,<br />

among other things, to request or direct the Note Trustee to take any action or to pass an<br />

Extraordinary Resolution which, in the opinion of the Note Trustee, may affect the interests of the<br />

Class A Noteholders, (ii) the Class C Noteholders, among other things, to request or direct the<br />

Note Trustee to take any action or pass an Extraordinary Resolution which, in the opinion of the<br />

Note Trustee, may affect the interests of the Class A Noteholders or the Class B Noteholders, (iii)<br />

the Class D Noteholders, among other things, to request or direct the Note Trustee to take any<br />

action or pass an Extraordinary Resolution which, in the opinion of the Note Trustee, may affect<br />

the interests of the Class A Noteholders, the Class B Noteholders or the Class C Noteholders, and<br />

(iv) the Class E Noteholders, among other things, to request or direct the Note Trustee to take any<br />

action or pass an Extraordinary Resolution which, in the opinion of the Note Trustee, may affect<br />

the interests of the Class A Noteholders, the Class B Noteholders, the Class C Noteholders or the<br />

Class D Noteholders, in each case, subject as provided in the Note Trust Deed. Except in certain<br />

circumstances as set out in the Note Trust Deed, the Note Trust Deed contains no such limitation<br />

on the powers of the Class A Noteholders, the exercise of which powers will be binding on the<br />

Class B Noteholders, the Class C Noteholders, the Class D Noteholders and the Class E<br />

Noteholders, irrespective of the effect thereof on their interests subject as provided below in<br />

Condition 12(b) (Meetings of Noteholders, Modification and Waiver and Substitution). Except in<br />

certain circumstances as set out in the Note Trust Deed, the exercise of their powers by the Class B<br />

Noteholders will be binding on the Class C Noteholders, the Class D Noteholders and the Class E<br />

Noteholders irrespective of the effect thereof on their interests subject as provided below in<br />

Condition 12(c) (Meetings of Noteholders, Modification and Waiver and Substitution). Except in<br />

certain circumstances as set out in the Note Trust Deed, the exercise of their powers by the Class C<br />

Noteholders will be binding on the Class D Noteholders and the Class E Noteholders, irrespective<br />

of the effect thereof on their interests subject as provided below in Condition 12(d) (Meetings of<br />

Noteholders, Modification and Waiver and Substitution). Except in certain circumstances as set<br />

out in the Note Trust Deed, the exercise of their powers by the Class D Noteholders will be<br />

Substitution). Neither the Class X Noteholders nor the Class V Noteholders have any power to<br />

Noteholders of the relevant class.<br />

(b) Security and Priority of Payments<br />

The security interests granted in respect of the Notes are set out in the Deed of Charge and Assignment.<br />

Under the Deed of Charge and Assignment, the Issuer with full title guarantee has created, inter alia,<br />

the following security (the “Issuer Security”) in favour of the Note Trustee to hold on trust for its<br />

principal only) and the Class V Noteholders), the Cash Manager, the Loan Seller, the Corporate<br />

159


Services Provider, the Advance Provider, the Backup Advance Provider, the Principal Paying Agent<br />

and any other paying agent appointed under the Agency Agreement, the <strong>Irish</strong> Paying Agent, the<br />

Registrar, the Agent Bank, the Operating Bank, the Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Swap<br />

Provider (all of such persons being collectively, the “Secured Parties”):<br />

(i) an assignment by way of first-ranking security of the Issuer’s rights under the Libra Loan and all<br />

monies, income and proceeds payable thereunder or accrued thereon and the benefit of all<br />

covenants relating thereto and all rights and remedies for enforcing the same (subject to any<br />

Subordinated Lenders’ rights therein), the Loan Documents, the Credit Agreement, the Loan Sale<br />

Agreement, the Servicing Agreement, the Cash Management Agreement, the Agency Agreement,<br />

the Corporate Services Agreement, the Basis Swap Agreement, the Basis Swap Transaction, the<br />

master definitions schedule appended to the Servicing Agreement (the “Master Definitions<br />

Schedule”) and all other agreements to which the Issuer is a party;<br />

(ii) an assignment by way of first-ranking security of the Issuer’s beneficial interest in the Related<br />

Security;<br />

(iii) a first-ranking charge over the Issuer’s interests in the Issuer Accounts (other than the Class X<br />

Account and the Class V Account) and certain other accounts of the Issuer, and in the funds from<br />

time to time standing to the credit of such accounts (other than Class V Amounts) and in the debts<br />

represented thereby;<br />

(iv) a first-ranking charge in and to such Permitted Investments made by or on behalf of the Issuer<br />

using monies standing to the credit of the Issuer Accounts (other than the Class V Account and the<br />

Class X Account) and all monies, income and proceeds payable thereunder or accrued thereon<br />

(other than to the extent such amounts represent Class V Amounts) and the benefit of all covenants<br />

relating thereto and all rights and remedies for enforcing the same; and<br />

(v) a first-ranking floating charge governed by English law over the whole of the undertaking and<br />

assets of the Issuer, present and future (other than any such undertakings and assets as are situated<br />

in Jersey), other than such assets that are subject to the assignments by way of security or the fixed<br />

charges set out in paragraphs (i) to (iv) above or in this Condition 3(b) below, but extending over<br />

all of the undertaking and assets of the Issuer situated in Scotland or otherwise governed by Scots<br />

law or situated in Northern Ireland or otherwise governed by Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law respectively.<br />

The Cash Management Agreement contains provisions regulating the priority of application of<br />

Available Funds among the persons entitled thereto both before and after the service of a Note<br />

Enforcement Notice (as defined in Condition 10(a) (Eligible Noteholders)). The Deed of Charge and<br />

Assignment contains provisions regulating the priority of application among the persons entitled<br />

thereto of the Available Funds and the proceeds of enforcement or realisation of the Issuer Security by<br />

the Note Trustee after service of a Note Enforcement Notice.<br />

In addition, under the Deed of Charge and Assignment, the Issuer creates a first ranking charge over (a)<br />

the Issuer’s interests in the Class X Account (other than interest accrued on amounts standing to the<br />

credit of such account) and Permitted Investments made using amounts standing to the credit thereof in<br />

favour of the Class X Noteholders and (b) the Issuer’s interests in the Class V Account along with<br />

Class V Amounts standing to the credit of any Issuer Account in favour of the Class V Noteholders.<br />

The Class X Account consists of the initial deposit of £50,000 in the Class X Account. The Class V<br />

Account consists of the initial deposit of £50,000 in the Class V Account and the Class V Amounts<br />

arising from time to time.<br />

The Issuer Security may be enforced following the occurrence of a Note Event of Default. The Note<br />

Trustee will not, except if the Issuer Security has become enforceable by reason of a default in payment<br />

of any amount due under the Notes, be entitled to dispose of the undertaking, property or assets secured<br />

under the Issuer Security or any part thereof or otherwise realise the Issuer Security unless: (i) a<br />

sufficient amount would be realised to allow discharge in full of all amounts owing to the Noteholders<br />

and any amounts required under the Deed of Charge and Assignment to be paid pari passu with, or in<br />

priority to, the Notes (other than the Class V Notes); or (ii) the Note Trustee is of the opinion, which<br />

shall be binding on the Noteholders and each other Secured Party, reached after considering at any time<br />

and from time to time the advice of such professional advisors as may be selected by the Note Trustee,<br />

upon which the Note Trustee shall be entitled to rely, that the cash flow prospectively receivable by the<br />

160


4. Covenants<br />

Issuer will not (or that there is a significant risk that it will not) be sufficient, having regard to any other<br />

actual, contingent or prospective liabilities of the Issuer, to discharge in full in due course all amounts<br />

owing to the Noteholders and any amounts required under the Deed of Charge and Assignment to be<br />

paid pari passu with, or in priority to, the Notes; or (iii) the Note Trustee considers, in its discretion,<br />

that not to effect such disposal or realisation would place the Issuer Security in jeopardy; and (iv) in<br />

any event, the Note Trustee has been indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction.<br />

If the net proceeds of realisation of, or enforcement with respect to, the Issuer Security are not<br />

sufficient to make all payments due in respect of the Notes, the other assets of the Issuer (including the<br />

amounts standing to the credit of the Issuer in the Issuer Share Capital Proceeds Account in accordance<br />

with the Transaction Documents) will not be available for payment of any shortfall arising therefrom,<br />

and any such shortfall will be borne among the Secured Parties and amongst the Noteholders as<br />

provided in these Conditions and the Deed of Charge and Assignment. All claims in respect of such<br />

shortfall, after realisation of or enforcement with respect to all of the Issuer Security, will be<br />

extinguished and the Note Trustee, the Noteholders and the other Secured Parties will have no further<br />

claim against the Issuer in respect of such unpaid amounts. Each Noteholder, by subscribing for or<br />

purchasing Notes, is deemed to accept and acknowledge that it is fully aware that:<br />

(i) in the event of realisation or enforcement of the Issuer Security, its right to obtain payment of<br />

interest and repayment of principal on the Notes in full is limited to recourse against the<br />

undertaking, property and assets of the Issuer comprised in the Issuer Security;<br />

(ii) the Issuer will have duly and entirely fulfilled its payment obligations by making available to such<br />

Noteholder its proportion of the proceeds of realisation or enforcement of the Issuer Security in<br />

accordance with the payment priorities of the Deed of Charge and Assignment, and all claims in<br />

respect of any shortfall will be extinguished and discharged; and<br />

(iii) in the event that a shortfall in the amount available to pay principal of the Notes of any class exists<br />

on the Payment Date falling in January 2017 (the “Maturity Date”) or on any earlier date for<br />

redemption in full of the Notes or any class of Notes, after payment on the Maturity Date or such<br />

date of earlier redemption of all other claims ranking higher in priority to or pari passu with the<br />

Notes or the related class of Notes, and the Issuer Security has not become enforceable as at the<br />

Maturity Date or such date of earlier redemption, the liability of the Issuer to make any payment in<br />

respect of such shortfall will cease and all claims in respect of such shortfall will be extinguished.<br />

(a) Restrictions: Save with the prior written consent of the Note Trustee or unless otherwise provided in or<br />

envisaged by these Conditions or the other Transaction Documents, the Issuer shall not, so long as any<br />

Note remains outstanding:<br />

option or present or future right to acquire any of its assets or undertaking or any interest, estate,<br />

right, title or benefit therein other than as expressly contemplated by the Transaction Documents;<br />

161


(iv) Dividends or Distributions: pay any dividend or make any other distribution to its shareholders or<br />

issue any further shares, except as provided in the Deed of Charge and Assignment, as applicable;<br />

(v) Borrowings: incur or permit to subsist any indebtedness in respect of borrowed money whatsoever,<br />

except in respect of the Notes, the Loan Sale Agreement or the Servicing Agreement or give any<br />

guarantee or indemnity in respect of any indebtedness or of any obligation of any person;<br />

(vi) Merger: consolidate or merge with any other person or convey or transfer all or substantially all of<br />

its property or assets to any other person;<br />

(vii) Variation: permit any of the Transaction Documents to become invalid or ineffective, or the<br />

priority of the security interests created thereby, to be reduced, amended, terminated, postponed or<br />

discharged, or consent to any variation of, or exercise any powers of consent or waiver pursuant to<br />

the terms of, the Note Trust Deed, these Conditions, the Deed of Charge and Assignment or any of<br />

the other Transaction Documents, or permit any party to any of the Transaction Documents or the<br />

Issuer Security or any other person whose obligations form part of the Issuer Security to be<br />

released from such obligations or dispose of all or any part of the Issuer Security;<br />

(viii) Bank accounts: have an interest in any bank account other than the Collection Account, the Class<br />

X Account, the Class V Account and the Issuer Share Capital Proceeds Account, unless such<br />

account or interest therein is charged or security is otherwise provided to the Note Trustee on<br />

terms acceptable to it;<br />

(ix) Assets: own assets other than those representing its share capital, the funds arising from the issue<br />

of the Notes, the property, rights and assets secured by the Issuer Security (other than the Issuer<br />

Share Capital Proceeds Account and the amounts standing to the credit of the Issuer therein in<br />

accordance with the Transaction Documents) and associated and ancillary rights and interests<br />

thereto, the benefit of the Loan Documents, the benefit of the Transaction Documents and any<br />

investments and other rights or interests created or acquired thereunder, as all of the same may<br />

vary from time to time;<br />

(x) VAT: apply to become part of any group for the purpose of Section 8 of the Value Added Tax Act<br />

1972 of Ireland, as amended with any other company or group of companies, or any such act,<br />

regulation, order, statutory instrument or directive which may from time to time re-enact, replace,<br />

amend, vary, codify, consolidate or repeal the Value Added Tax Act 1972 of Ireland, as amended;<br />

(xi) Business Establishment: not have any other business establishment or other fixed establishment<br />

other than in Ireland; and<br />

(xii) Taxation: prejudice its status as a qualifying company within the meaning of Section 110 of the<br />

Taxes Consolidation Act 1997 of Ireland, as amended, or if its cashflows would thereby be<br />

affected adversely make an election pursuant to subsection (6)(b) of that section.<br />

In addition, the Issuer shall conduct its business and affairs such that, at all times, its centre of main<br />

interests for the purposes of the EU Insolvency Regulation (EC) No. 1346/2000 of 29 May 2000 shall<br />

be and remain in Ireland.<br />

In giving any waiver or consent in respect of the foregoing, the Note Trustee may require the Issuer to<br />

make such modifications or additions to the provisions of any of the Transaction Documents or may<br />

impose such other conditions or requirements as the Note Trustee may deem expedient (in its absolute<br />

discretion) in the interests of the Noteholders, and provided further that the Rating Agencies provide<br />

written confirmation to the Note Trustee that the then applicable ratings of the Notes will not be<br />

downgraded, withdrawn or qualified as a result of such modifications, additions, conditions or<br />

requirements.<br />

(b) Cash Manager, Servicer and Special Servicer: So long as any of the Notes remain outstanding, the<br />

Issuer will procure that there will at all times be a cash manager in respect of the monies from time to<br />

time standing to the credit of the Collection Account and any other account of the Issuer from time to<br />

time and a servicer and a special servicer (if applicable) in respect of the Properties. None of the Cash<br />

Manager, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, is permitted to terminate its appointment<br />

unless a replacement cash manager, servicer or special servicer, as the case may be, acceptable to the<br />

Issuer and the Note Trustee has been appointed. The appointment of the Cash Manager, the Servicer or<br />

162


5. Interest<br />

the Special Servicer, as applicable, may be terminated by the Note Trustee if, inter alia, and subject to<br />

certain grace periods, the Cash Manager, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, defaults in<br />

any material respect (in the case of the Servicing Agreement) or in any respect (in the case of the Cash<br />

Management Agreement) in the observance and performance of any obligation imposed on it under the<br />

Cash Management Agreement or the Servicing Agreement, as applicable.<br />

(a) Period of Accrual: Each Note bears interest on its Principal Amount Outstanding from (and including)<br />

the Closing Date. Each Note (or, in the case of the redemption of part only of a Note, that part only of<br />

such Note) shall cease to bear interest from its due date for redemption unless, upon due presentation,<br />

payment of the relevant amount of principal or any part thereof is improperly withheld or refused on<br />

any Global Note or Definitive Note, as applicable. Where such principal is improperly withheld or<br />

refused on any Note, interest will continue to accrue thereon (before as well as after any judgment) at<br />

the rate applicable to such Note up to (but excluding) the date on which payment in full of the relevant<br />

amount of principal, together with the interest accrued thereon, is made or (if earlier) the seventh day<br />

after notice is duly given to the holder thereof (either in accordance with Condition 15 (Notice to<br />

Noteholders) or individually) that, upon presentation thereof being duly made, such payment will be<br />

made, provided that upon presentation thereof being duly made, payment is in fact made.<br />

(b) Payment Dates and Interest Accrual Periods: Subject to Condition 21 (<strong>Limited</strong> Recourse), interest on<br />

the Notes is payable quarterly in arrear on the 20 th calendar day of each January, April, July and<br />

October in each year or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day (each, a<br />

“Payment Date”) in respect of the Interest Accrual Period ending immediately prior thereto. The first<br />

Payment Date in respect of each class of Notes will be the Payment Date falling in July <strong>2007</strong> in respect<br />

of the period from (and including) the Closing Date to (but excluding) that Payment Date.<br />

In these Conditions, “Interest Accrual Period” shall mean the period from (and including) the 20 th<br />

calendar day of each January, April, July and October (each, an “Interest Accrual Date”) (or, in<br />

respect of the payment of the first Interest Amount (as defined in Condition 5(e) (Publication of Rates<br />

of Interest for the Notes, Interest Amounts and Other Notices) below), the Closing Date) to (but<br />

excluding) the next following Interest Accrual Date and “Business Day” shall in these Conditions<br />

(other than Conditions 6 (Redemption and Cancellation) and 7 (Payments)) mean any day (other than a<br />

Saturday or a Sunday) on which banking institutions where any Issuer Account is held or the Note<br />

Trustee, the Cash Manager, the Paying Agent, the Advance Provider, the Backup Advance Provider,<br />

the Servicer or the Special Servicer is authorised or obliged by law or governmental decree to close.<br />

(c) Rate of Interest: The rates of interest payable from time to time in respect of each class of Notes (each,<br />

a “Rate of Interest” and together, the “Rates of Interest”) will be determined by the Agent Bank as<br />

soon as practicable (i) in the case of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class<br />

D Notes and the Class E Notes after 11.00 a.m. (London time) on the 20 th calendar day of each January,<br />

April, July and October, being the first day of the Interest Accrual Period for which the rate will apply,<br />

or, if such day is not a Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day (or, in the case of the first<br />

Payment Date, the Closing Date) and (ii) in the case of the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes, after<br />

11.00 a.m. (London time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the 20 th calendar day of each<br />

January, April, July and October, being the last day of the Interest Accrual Period for which the rate<br />

will apply (in each case, an “Interest Determination Date”). The Rate of Interest applicable to the<br />

Notes of each class (other than the Class X Notes and Class V Notes) for any Interest Accrual Period<br />

will be equal to LIBOR (as determined in accordance with this Condition 5(c)) plus the Relevant<br />

Margin (as defined below).<br />

For the purposes of determining the Rate of Interest in respect of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes,<br />

the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes and the Class E Notes, “LIBOR” will be determined by the<br />

Agent Bank on the basis of the following provisions:<br />

(i) on each Interest Determination Date, the Agent Bank will determine at, or as soon as practicable<br />

after, 11.00 a.m. (London time) the interest rate for three-month sterling deposits in the London<br />

inter-bank market (or in the case of the first Interest Accrual Period, the linear interpolation of the<br />

rate for one-month and two-month sterling deposits) which appears on Moneyline/Telerate Screen<br />

No. 3750 (or (i) such other page as may replace Moneyline/Telerate Screen No. 3750 on that<br />

service for the purpose of displaying such information or (ii) if that service ceases to display such<br />

163


information, such page as displays such information on such equivalent service (or, if more than<br />

one, that one which is approved by the Note Trustee) as may replace the Moneyline/Telerate<br />

Monitor) (the “LIBOR Screen Rate”); or<br />

(ii) if the LIBOR Screen Rate is not then available, the Agent Bank will use the arithmetic mean<br />

(rounded to five decimal places, 0.000005 per cent. rounded upwards) of the rates notified to the<br />

Agent Bank at its request by each of four leading reference banks duly chosen by the Agent Bank<br />

for such purpose (the “Reference Banks”) as the rate at which three-month deposits in sterling are<br />

offered for the same period as that Interest Accrual Period by those Reference Banks to leading<br />

banks in the London inter-bank market at or about 11.00 a.m. (London time) on that date (or, in<br />

respect of the first Interest Accrual Period, by the rate for one-month sterling deposits notified by<br />

the Reference Banks). If, on any such Interest Determination Date, at least two of the Reference<br />

Banks provide such offered quotations to the Agent Bank the relevant rate shall be determined, as<br />

aforesaid, on the basis of the offered quotations of those Reference Banks providing such<br />

quotations. If, on any such Interest Determination Date, only one or none of the Reference Banks<br />

provides the Agent Bank with such an offered quotation, the Agent Bank shall forthwith consult<br />

with the Note Trustee and the Issuer for the purposes of agreeing one or more additional banks to<br />

provide such a quotation or quotations to the Agent Bank and the rate for the Interest Accrual<br />

Period in question shall be determined, as aforesaid, on the basis of the offered quotations of such<br />

banks as so agreed. If no such bank or banks is or are so agreed or such bank or banks as so<br />

agreed does not or do not provide such a quotation or quotations, then the rate for the relevant<br />

Interest Accrual Period shall be the arithmetic mean (rounded to five decimal places, 0.000005 per<br />

cent. being rounded upwards) of the rates quoted by leading London banks, selected by the Agent<br />

Bank, at approximately 11.00 a.m. (London time) on the Closing Date or the relevant Interest<br />

Determination Date, as the case may be, for loans in sterling to leading banks in London for a<br />

period of three months or, in the case of the first Interest Accrual Period, the same as the relevant<br />

Interest Accrual Period.<br />

The amount of interest due with respect to any Payment Date on the Class X Notes is equal to interest<br />

accrued during the related Interest Accrual Period at the Class X Interest Rate on the Principal Amount<br />

Outstanding of such class as at the relevant Interest Determination Date.<br />

The amount of interest due with respect to any Payment Date on the Class V Notes is equal to the<br />

interest accrued during the Interest Accrual Period expiring immediately before such Payment Date at<br />

the Class V Interest Rate on the Principal Amount Outstanding of the Class V Notes as at the relevant<br />

Interest Determination Date. The Rate of Interest applicable to the Class V Notes for any Interest<br />

Accrual Period will be the Class V Interest Rate as calculated on the Interest Determination Date in<br />

respect of the Interest Accrual Period for which the rate will apply. The “Class V Interest Rate” for<br />

any Payment Date will be a per annum rate, expressed as a percentage, equal to the product of: (a) the<br />

fraction obtained by dividing: (i) the Class V Amounts Factor for the Class V Notes, by (ii) the actual<br />

number of days in the relevant Interest Accrual Period expiring immediately before such Payment<br />

Date; and (b) 365. The “Class V Amounts Factor” is, as at any Payment Date, equal to the amount<br />

expressed as percentage obtained by dividing: (i) the Class V Amounts for the Interest Accrual Period<br />

expiring immediately before such Payment Date; by (ii) the Principal Amount Outstanding of the Class<br />

V Notes as at the beginning of such period. The “Class V Amounts” in respect of the Payment Date<br />

immediately following the expiry of an Interest Accrual Period means the sum of:<br />

(i) all Prepayment Charges and Yield Maintenance Premia with respect to any Loan received during<br />

the Collection Period immediately preceding such Payment Date;<br />

(ii) any interest earned on amounts deposited in the Collection Account, the Class V Account and the<br />

Class X Account and any net income earned from Permitted Investments of such amounts in each<br />

case during the Collection Period immediately preceding such Payment Date (in each case other<br />

than interest or net income earned in respect of prepayments (including Break Costs) or liquidation<br />

proceeds deposited into the Collection Account during such Collection Period).<br />

The Rate of Interest applicable to the Class X Notes from time to time will be the Class X Interest Rate.<br />

The “Class X Interest Rate” for any Payment Date is a per annum rate expressed as a percentage<br />

calculated as follows: (a) the product of: (i) the outstanding principal balance of the Libra Loan as at<br />

the beginning of the related Interest Accrual Period expiring immediately before such Payment Date<br />

164


and (ii) the Class X Net Weighted Average Strip Rate, divided by (b) the Principal Amount<br />

Outstanding on the Class X Notes immediately before such Payment Date.<br />

For the purposes of calculating the Class X Interest Rate in accordance with this Condition 5(c):<br />

The “Class X Net Weighted Average Strip Rate” with respect to any Payment Date will be a per<br />

annum rate equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the Net Mortgage Rate for the related Interest Accrual<br />

Period over (y) the weighted average of the Rates of Interest of the Notes (other than the Class X Notes<br />

and the Class V Notes) (weighted on the basis of the respective Principal Amount Outstanding of such<br />

Classes immediately prior to such Payment Date).<br />

The “Net Mortgage Rate” for the Libra Loan, with respect to any Payment Dates is equal to (a) the<br />

related per annum interest rate due on the Libra Loan less (b) the Administrative Cost Rate.<br />

The “Administrative Cost Rate” is equal to a variable per annum rate, which, as at any Payment Date,<br />

is the amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to the product of (a) the fraction obtained by dividing:<br />

(i) the Administrative Cost Factor by (ii) the actual number of days in the relevant Interest Accrual<br />

Period for such Payment Date and (b) 365. The Administrative Cost Rate represents as at any date of<br />

calculation, the per annum rate at which Periodic Expenses for any Interest Accrual Period accrue<br />

against the outstanding principal balance of the Libra Loan.<br />

The “Administrative Cost Factor” is, as at any Payment Date, equal to the amount (expressed as a<br />

percentage) obtained by dividing: (i) the Administrative Fees for such Payment Date by (ii) the<br />

outstanding principal balance of the Libra Loan at the beginning of the related Loan Interest Accrual<br />

Period for such Payment Date.<br />

The “Administrative Fees” for any Payment Date will be the sum of all Periodic Expenses plus VAT,<br />

if applicable, incurred during the Collection Period immediately preceding such Payment Date.<br />

Periodic Expenses (excluding the Servicing Fee) plus VAT, if applicable are scheduled to be, on an<br />

annual basis, an amount equal to approximately £117,000; however, if any current service provider is<br />

replaced by a successor service provider and such successor’s fees are in excess of the prior service<br />

provider’s fees, the Periodic Expenses will be increased to reflect such change.<br />

For the purposes of these Conditions, “Relevant Margin” means, with respect to each class of Notes<br />

(other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes):<br />

Class A Notes:<br />

Class B Notes:<br />

Class C Notes:<br />

Class D Notes:<br />

Class E Notes:<br />

0.25 per cent. per annum<br />

0.35 per cent. per annum<br />

0.50 per cent. per annum<br />

0.60 per cent. per annum<br />

0.90 per cent. per annum<br />

(d) Determination of Rates of Interest and Calculation of Interest Amounts for Notes: The Agent Bank<br />

shall, on each related Interest Determination Date, notify the Issuer, the Note Trustee, the Cash<br />

Manager and the Paying Agents in writing of (i) the Rates of Interest applicable to the Interest Accrual<br />

Period immediately following such Interest Determination Date in respect of the Notes of each class<br />

(other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) and of the Class X Interest Rate and the Class V<br />

Interest Rate applicable to the Interest Accrual Period that ended on that Interest Determination Date,<br />

and (ii) the amount of interest (the “Interest Amount”) payable, subject to Conditions 3 (Status,<br />

Security and Priority) and 21 (<strong>Limited</strong> Recourse), in respect of such Interest Accrual Period in respect<br />

of the Notes of each class (to the extent such amount of interest is known at the time). Each Interest<br />

Amount in respect of the Notes of each class shall be calculated by applying the relevant Rate of<br />

Interest to the Principal Amount Outstanding of the relevant class of Notes as at the relevant Interest<br />

Determination Date and multiplying such sum by the actual number of days in the relevant Interest<br />

Accrual Period divided by 365 and rounding the resultant figure downward to the nearest pence.<br />

(e) Publication of Rates of Interest for the Notes, Interest Amounts and other Notices: As soon as<br />

practicable after receiving notification thereof, the Issuer will cause (i) the Rate of Interest, the Class X<br />

Interest Rate, the Class V Interest Rate and the Interest Amount applicable to the Notes of each class<br />

for each Interest Accrual Period and (ii) the Payment Date in respect thereof to be notified in writing to<br />

<strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> <strong>Limited</strong> (the “<strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong>”) (for so long as the Notes are listed on the<br />

165


<strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong>) and will cause notice thereof to be given to the relevant class of Noteholders in<br />

accordance with Condition 15 (Notice to Noteholders). The Interest Amounts, Payment Date and other<br />

determinations so notified may subsequently be amended (or appropriate alternative arrangements<br />

made by way of adjustment) without notice in the event of any extension or shortening of the Interest<br />

Accrual Period for the Notes.<br />

(f) Determination or Calculation by the Note Trustee: If the Agent Bank does not at any time for any<br />

reason determine the Rate of Interest or, as the case may be, the Class X Interest Rate or, as the case<br />

may be, the Class V Interest Rate and/or calculate the Interest Amount for any class of the Notes and/or<br />

make any other necessary calculations in accordance with the foregoing Conditions, the Note Trustee<br />

shall (i) determine the Rate of Interest or, as the case may be, the Class X Interest Rate or the Class V<br />

Interest Rate at such rate as, in its absolute discretion (having such regard as it shall think fit to the<br />

procedure described above), it shall deem fair and reasonable in all the circumstances, and/or (as the<br />

case may be) (ii) calculate the Interest Amount for each class of the Notes in the manner specified in<br />

Condition 5(c) (Rate of Interest) or Condition 5(e) (Publication of Rates of Interest for the Notes,<br />

Interest Amounts and Other Notices), as applicable and (iii) calculate each Note Factor in the manner<br />

described in Condition 6(e) (Principal Amount Outstanding and Note Factor), and any such<br />

determination and/or calculation shall be deemed to have been made by the Agent Bank, and the Note<br />

Trustee shall have no liability in respect thereof.<br />

(g) Notifications to be Final: All notifications, opinions, determinations, certificates, calculations,<br />

quotations and decisions given, expressed, made or obtained for the purposes of this Condition,<br />

whether by the Reference Banks (or any of them) or the Agent Bank, or the Note Trustee shall (in the<br />

absence of wilful default, bad faith or negligence or manifest or proven error) be binding on the Issuer,<br />

the Reference Banks, the Agent Bank, the Note Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Cash Manager, the<br />

Paying Agents and all Noteholders and (in the absence of wilful default, bad faith or negligence or<br />

manifest or proven error) no liability to the Noteholders shall attach to the Issuer, the Reference Banks,<br />

the Agent Bank or (in the absence of wilful default or bad faith) the Note Trustee in connection with<br />

the exercise or non-exercise by them or any of them of their powers, duties and discretions hereunder.<br />

(h) Reference Banks, Agent Bank and Registrar: The Issuer shall ensure that, so long as any of the Notes<br />

The initial Reference Banks shall be the principal office of four major banks in the London interbank<br />

market chosen by the Agent Bank pursuant to Condition 5(c) (Rate of Interest). In the event of the<br />

principal London office of any such bank being unable or unwilling to continue to act as a Reference<br />

Bank, the Agent Bank shall appoint such other bank as may have been previously approved in writing<br />

by the Note Trustee to act as such in its place. Any purported resignation by the Agent Bank or the<br />

Registrar shall not take effect until a successor so approved by the Note Trustee has been appointed.<br />

6. Redemption and Cancellation<br />

(a) Final Redemption: Unless previously redeemed in full and cancelled as provided in this Condition 6<br />

(Redemption and Cancellation), the Issuer shall redeem the Notes at their Principal Amount<br />

Outstanding together with accrued interest on the Maturity Date, which is the Payment Date falling in<br />

January 2017.<br />

The Issuer may not redeem Notes in whole or in part prior to the Maturity Date except as provided in<br />

this Condition 6 (Redemption and Cancellation) but without prejudice to Condition 10 (Note Events of<br />

Default).<br />

(b) Mandatory Redemption from Principal Distribution Amounts, Sequential Principal Distribution<br />

Amounts and Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amounts: Subject as provided or set out below and as<br />

provided in Conditions 6(c) (Mandatory Redemption for Tax Reasons), 6(d) (Mandatory Redemption<br />

Upon Exercise of Call Option) and 6(e) (Principal Amount Outstanding and Note Factor), prior to the<br />

service of a Note Enforcement Notice, the most senior class of Notes then outstanding (other than the<br />

Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) shall be subject to mandatory redemption in full or, as the case<br />

may be in part on each Payment Date if on the day prior to the relevant Payment Date there are any<br />

Principal Distribution Amounts after paying any and all amounts payable out of such funds in priority<br />

to payments on such class of Notes as specified below, and if the amount of such Principal Distribution<br />

Amounts after paying any and all amounts payable out of such funds in priority to payments on such<br />

class of Notes, is not less than £1. If on any Payment Date, the most senior class of Notes then<br />

166


outstanding is redeemed in full pursuant to the foregoing, any remaining Principal Distribution<br />

Amounts shall be applied in mandatory redemption in full or in part of the next most senior class of<br />

Notes (other than the Class X Notes or the Class V Notes) then outstanding.<br />

The Sequential Principal Distribution Amounts shall be applied, on the immediately following Payment<br />

Date, first in paying principal on the Class A Notes until all the Class A Notes have been redeemed in<br />

full; secondly, in paying principal on the Class B Notes until all the Class B Notes have been redeemed<br />

in full; thirdly, in paying principal on the Class C Notes until all the Class C Notes have been redeemed<br />

in full; fourthly, in paying principal on the Class D Notes until all the Class D Notes have been<br />

redeemed in full; fifthly, in paying principal on the Class E Notes until all the Class E Notes have been<br />

On each Payment Date prior to a Sequential Prepayment Trigger in respect of which the Principal<br />

Prepayment Amount is greater than zero, the Cash Manager will allocate and distribute Pro Rata<br />

Principal Prepayment Amounts from Available Funds in the Collection Account pro rata to each class<br />

of Notes then outstanding (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) based upon the<br />

respective Principal Amount Outstanding of each such class of Notes and the aggregate Principal<br />

Amount Outstanding of the Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) on such<br />

Payment Date, in each case after taking into account application of (i) the Principal Amortisation<br />

Amount and (ii) the Pre-Trigger Sequential Principal Prepayment Amount for such Payment Date in<br />

accordance with the Sequential Priority of Payments.<br />

Subject to Condition 21 (<strong>Limited</strong> Recourse), payments of Principal Distribution Amounts, Sequential<br />

Principal Distribution Amounts, Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amounts and Pre-Trigger Sequential<br />

Principal Prepayment Amounts shall be applied, as appropriate, on each Payment Date, commencing<br />

on the first Payment Date.<br />

Upon payment in full of the Principal Amount Outstanding of all the Notes (other than the Class X<br />

Notes and the Class V Notes) by redemption pursuant to any provision under this Condition 6<br />

(Redemption and Cancellation), any amount that is held in a separate account of the Issuer as security<br />

for the Class V Notes only, shall be paid in full as a repayment of principal to the holders of the Class<br />

V Notes.<br />

Upon payment in full of the Principal Amounts Outstanding of all the Notes (other than the Class X<br />

Notes and the Class V Notes) by redemption pursuant to any provision under this Condition 6<br />

(Redemption and Cancellation) or in the event that the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the<br />

Libra Loan has been reduced to zero, any amount that is held in a separate account of the Issuer as<br />

security for the Class X Notes only, shall be paid in full as a payment of principal to the holders of the<br />

Class X Notes.<br />

For the purposes of this Condition, “Principal Distribution Amount” means the amount of any<br />

Principal Distribution Amount which has actually been allocated as principal by the Cash Manager for<br />

the redemption of any of the Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) pursuant to<br />

the Cash Management Agreement.<br />

For the purposes of this Condition, “Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amount” means the amount of<br />

any Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amount which has actually been allocated by the Cash Manager for<br />

the redemption of any of the Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) pursuant to<br />

the Cash Management Agreement.<br />

For the purposes of these Conditions, “Principal Amortisation Amount” means for any Payment Date<br />

the Principal Distribution Amount for such Payment Date less the Principal Prepayment Amount for<br />

such Payment Date.<br />

For the purposes of these Conditions, “Principal Prepayment Amount” means for any Payment Date<br />

the sum, without duplication, of any voluntary or mandatory principal prepayments (including any<br />

premium received in connection with any property release) or Balloon Payment but excluding, in each<br />

case, amortisation actually received under the Libra Loan during the Collection Period related to such<br />

Payment Date.<br />

167


For the purposes of these Conditions, “Sequential Principal Distribution Amount” means for any<br />

Payment Date the amount equal to the excess of the Principal Distribution Amount received for the<br />

Libra Loan for such Payment Date over the Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amount for such Payment<br />

Date.<br />

The “Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amount” and the “Pre-Trigger Sequential Principal<br />

Prepayment Amount” for any Payment Date will be equal to the lesser of:<br />

(i) 50 per cent. of the Principal Prepayment Amount for such Payment Date; or<br />

(ii) 50 per cent. of an amount that, if applied against the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of<br />

the Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) as at such Payment Date would,<br />

after application of any Principal Amortisation Amount on such Payment Date, reduce such<br />

Principal Amount Outstanding to 50 per cent. of the Principal Amount Outstanding of the Notes<br />

(other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) as at the Closing Date.<br />

Notwithstanding the foregoing if a Sequential Prepayment Trigger exists on the Determination Date<br />

immediately preceding such Payment Date, the Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amount for such<br />

Payment Date will be zero.<br />

For the purposes of these Conditions, “Sequential Prepayment Trigger” means, on any<br />

Determination Date, the existence of any of the following:<br />

(i) a Material Loan Event of Default under the Credit Agreement relating to the Libra Loan; or<br />

(ii) NAI Amounts have been allocated to any class of Notes since the Closing Date due to realised<br />

losses on the Libra Loan, or there has been a failure to pay interest when due on any Note; or<br />

(iii) the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the<br />

Class V Notes) is less than or equal to 50 per cent. of the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding<br />

of the Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) as at the Closing Date; or<br />

(iv) a Note Event of Default has been declared by the Note Trustee giving a Note Enforcement Notice<br />

pursuant to Condition 10 (Note Events of Default) and is outstanding.<br />

“Material Loan Event of Default” means any Loan Event of Default deemed (in accordance with the<br />

terms of the Credit Agreement) by the Servicer or, with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan, the<br />

shall include, but not be limited to, any monetary event of default, insolvency (of a member of the<br />

Borrower Group or of the Principal Tenant), cross-default with other indebtedness, or certain breaches<br />

of representation. Upon the occurrence of a Material Loan Event of Default, the Servicer or the Special<br />

Servicer, as applicable, will be required to promptly notify the Cash Manager.<br />

(c) Mandatory Redemption for Tax Reasons: If by virtue of a change in the tax law of Ireland, the United<br />

Kingdom or any other jurisdiction (or the application or official interpretation thereof) from that in<br />

effect on the Closing Date, on the next Payment Date the Issuer or any Paying Agent on its behalf<br />

would be required to deduct or withhold from any payment of principal or interest in respect of any<br />

Note (other than where the relevant holder or beneficial owner has some connection with the relevant<br />

jurisdiction other than the holding of Notes and other than in respect of default interest), any amount<br />

for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of<br />

whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by the relevant jurisdiction (or any<br />

political sub-division thereof or authority thereof or therein having power to tax) and such requirement<br />

cannot be avoided by the Issuer taking reasonable measures available to it and the Issuer or the Servicer<br />

has, prior to giving the notice referred to below, certified to the Note Trustee that the Issuer will have<br />

the necessary funds on such Payment Date to discharge all of the Issuer’s liabilities in respect of the<br />

Notes to be redeemed under this Condition 6(c) (Mandatory Redemption for Tax Reasons) and any<br />

amounts required under the Cash Management Agreement, the Note Trust Deed and/or the Deed of<br />

Charge and Assignment to be paid in priority to, or pari passu with, the Notes to be so redeemed,<br />

which certificate shall be conclusive and binding, and provided that on the Payment Date on which<br />

such notice expires no Note Enforcement Notice has been served, then if so directed in writing by<br />

holders of not less than 66⅔ per cent. of the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Controlling Class (or, if the Class E Notes are the Controlling Class, holders of not less than 51 per<br />

168


cent. of the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the Class E Notes) or so requested by an<br />

Extraordinary Resolution of the holders of the Controlling Class immediately prior to giving the notice<br />

referred to above the Issuer shall on such Payment Date, having given not more than 60 nor less than<br />

30 days’ written notice ending on such Payment Date to the Note Trustee, the Paying Agents and to the<br />

Noteholders in accordance with Condition 15 (Notice to Noteholders), redeem:<br />

(i) all Class A Notes in an amount equal to the then aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Class E Notes plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon; and<br />

(vii) all Class V Notes in an amount equal to the then aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Class V Notes plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon.<br />

(d) Mandatory Redemption Upon Exercise of Call Option: Each of the Servicer and the Special Servicer<br />

(and its assigns) is hereby granted a call option pursuant to which it may, at its sole discretion, purchase<br />

the Libra Loan on any Payment Date provided that (i) written notice is given by the Servicer or the<br />

Special Servicer, as applicable, to the Issuer, the Note Trustee and the Noteholders in accordance with<br />

Condition 15 (Notice to Noteholders) not more than 60 nor less than 30 days’ prior to such purchase,<br />

(ii) on the Determination Date relating to such Payment Date, no Note Enforcement Notice in relation<br />

to the Notes has been served, (iii) the Servicer or Special Servicer has, prior to giving such notice,<br />

certified to the Note Trustee that it will have the necessary funds to discharge on such Payment Date all<br />

of the Issuer’s liabilities in respect of the Notes and any amounts required under the Issuer Cash<br />

Management Agreement to be paid on such Payment Date which rank prior to, or pari passu with, the<br />

Notes, which certificate shall be conclusive and binding and (iv) the then aggregate Principal Amount<br />

Outstanding of the Notes is less than 10 per cent. of the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Notes as at the Closing Date.<br />

Upon the purchase of the Libra Loan, pursuant to such call option by the Servicer or Special Servicer<br />

(or its assigns), the Issuer will be required to redeem on such Payment Date:<br />

(i) all Class A Notes in an amount equal to the then aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Class A Notes plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon; and<br />

(ii) all Class X Notes in an amount equal to the then aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Class X Notes plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon; and<br />

(iii) all Class B Notes in an amount equal to the then aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Class B Notes plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon; and<br />

(iv) all Class C Notes in an amount equal to the then aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Class C Notes plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon; and<br />

(v) all Class D Notes in an amount equal to the then aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Class D Notes plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon; and<br />

(vi) all Class E Notes in an amount equal to the then aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Class E Notes plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon; and<br />

169


(vii) all Class V Notes in an amount equal to the then aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Class V Notes plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon.<br />

(e) Principal Amount Outstanding and Note Factor: Two Business Days prior to each Payment Date, the<br />

Cash Manager shall determine (i) the Principal Amount Outstanding of each class of Notes on the next<br />

following Payment Date (after deducting any principal payment to be paid on such Notes on that<br />

Payment Date and any NAI Amounts to be applied on that Payment Date) and (ii) the fraction (the<br />

“Note Factor”), the numerator of which is equal to the Principal Amount Outstanding on that Payment<br />

Date (after deducting any principal payment to be paid on such Note on that Payment Date and any<br />

NAI Amounts to be applied on that Payment Date) of such Note of the relevant class (calculated on the<br />

assumption that the face amount of such Note on the date of issuance thereof was £50,000) and the<br />

denominator is 50,000. Each determination by the Cash Manager of the Principal Amount Outstanding<br />

of a Note and the Note Factor shall in each case (in the absence of wilful default, bad faith or manifest<br />

error) be final and binding on all persons.<br />

The “Principal Amount Outstanding” of any class of Notes on any date shall be (a) the initial<br />

principal amount thereof on the Closing Date, less (b) the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of all<br />

repayments and prepayments of principal in respect of that class of Note since the Closing Date and<br />

prior to such date and (ii) the aggregate amount of all NAI Amounts allocated to such class of Notes<br />

since the Closing Date and before such date of calculation.<br />

For the purposes of these Conditions, “NAI Amounts” means on any Payment Date, in relation to each<br />

Note of a particular class, a pro rata share of the aggregate amount of NAI required to be applied to<br />

such class of Notes on such Payment Date in accordance with the following sentence (rounded down to<br />

the nearest pence). On the Payment Date following the arising of a NAI, the Principal Amount<br />

Outstanding of the Notes will, subject as set out below, be reduced by an amount equal to such NAI as<br />

follows: first, the Principal Amount Outstanding of the Class E Notes shall be reduced until the<br />

Principal Amount Outstanding of the Class E Notes is zero; second, the Principal Amount Outstanding<br />

of the Class D Notes shall be reduced until the Principal Amount Outstanding of the Class D Notes is<br />

zero; third, the Principal Amount Outstanding of the Class C Notes shall be reduced until the Principal<br />

Amount Outstanding of the Class C Notes is zero; fourth, the Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Class B Notes shall be reduced until the Principal Amount Outstanding of the Class B Notes is zero;<br />

and fifth, the Principal Amount Outstanding of the Class A Notes shall be reduced until the Principal<br />

Amount Outstanding of the Class A Notes is zero.<br />

“NAI” means with respect to any Determination Date, the amount by which (x) the aggregate amount<br />

of principal of the Libra Loan outstanding as determined by the Servicer after taking into account all<br />

principal received on or before such Determination Date will be less than (y) the aggregate Principal<br />

Amount Outstanding of the Notes on the related Payment Date (after application of any Sequential<br />

Principal Distribution Amount and Pro Rata Principal Prepayment Amount, if any, to be distributed on<br />

the Notes on such Payment Date).<br />

NAI will represent, among other things, the amount of losses realised on the Libra Loan upon a Final<br />

Recovery Determination.<br />

The Issuer (or the Cash Manager on its behalf) will cause each determination of a Principal Amount<br />

Outstanding, the Note Factor and the NAI to be notified in writing forthwith to the Note Trustee, the<br />

Paying Agents, the Rating Agencies, the Agent Bank and (for so long as the Notes are listed on the<br />

<strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong>) the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> and will cause notice of each determination of a<br />

Principal Amount Outstanding, the Note Factor and the NAI to be given to the Noteholders in<br />

accordance with Condition 15 (Notice to Noteholders) as soon as reasonably practicable on the date<br />

occurring two Business Days prior to each Payment Date. In addition, on such date, the Cash Manager<br />

shall provide or make available (via its internet website initially located at www.etrustee.net, which<br />

website does not form part of these Conditions) the Note Factor to the Note Trustee and the<br />

Noteholders.<br />

If the Issuer or the Cash Manager on behalf of the Issuer does not at any time for any reason determine<br />

a Principal Amount Outstanding, the Note Factor or if the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable,<br />

does not determine the NAI in accordance with the preceding provisions of this Condition 6<br />

(Redemption and Cancellation), such Principal Amount Outstanding the Note Factor and the NAI may<br />

be determined by the Note Trustee, in accordance with this Condition 6(e) (Principal Amount<br />

170


Outstanding and Note Factor), and each such determination or calculation shall be conclusive and shall<br />

be deemed to have been made by the Issuer or the Cash Manager, as the case may be.<br />

(f) Notice of Redemption: Any such notice as is referred to in Conditions 6(c) (Mandatory Redemption for<br />

Tax Reasons) and 6(d) (Mandatory Redemption Upon Exercise of Call Option) above shall be<br />

irrevocable and, upon the expiration of such notice, the Issuer shall be bound to redeem the Notes of<br />

the relevant class in the amounts specified in these Conditions.<br />

(g) Cancellation: All Notes redeemed in full pursuant to the foregoing provisions will be cancelled<br />

forthwith and may not be resold or re-issued.<br />

(h) Mandatory Redemption in Part of the Class X Notes and Class V Notes: The Class X Notes will be<br />

subject to mandatory redemption in part from amounts standing to the credit of the Class X Account on<br />

the first Payment Date in the amount of £45,000 per Note. The Class V Notes will be subject to<br />

mandatory redemption in part from amounts standing to the credit of the Class V Account on the first<br />

Payment Date in the amount of £45,000 per Note.<br />

(i) No Purchase by Issuer: The Issuer may not purchase any of the Notes.<br />

7. Payments<br />

(a) Global Notes: Payments of principal and interest in respect of any Global Note will be made only<br />

against presentation (and in the case of final redemption of a Global Note or in circumstances where<br />

the unpaid principal amount of the relevant Global Note would be reduced to zero (including as a result<br />

of any other payment of principal due in respect of such Global Note), surrender) of such Global Note<br />

at the specified office of any Paying Agent. A record of each payment so made, distinguishing<br />

between payments of principal and payments of interest and, in the case of partial payments, of the<br />

amount of each partial payment, will be endorsed on the schedule to the relevant Global Note by or on<br />

behalf of the relevant Paying Agent, which endorsement shall be prima facie evidence that such<br />

payment has been made.<br />

Payments in respect of the Rule 144A Global Notes will be paid in sterling to holders of interests in<br />

such Notes who hold such interests through Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg (the “Rule<br />

144A Euroclear/Clearstream Holders”). Payments in respect of the Regulation S Global Notes will<br />

be paid in sterling to holders of interests in such Notes (such holders being, together with the Rule<br />

144A Euroclear/Clearstream Holders, the “Euroclear/Clearstream Holders”).<br />

A Euroclear/Clearstream Holder shall receive payments in respect of its interest in any Global Notes in<br />

accordance with Euroclear’s or, as the case may be, Clearstream, Luxembourg’s rules and procedures.<br />

None of the persons from time to time shown in the records of Euroclear or Clearstream Luxembourg<br />

as the holder of a Note of the relevant Class shall have any claim directly against the Issuer or the Note<br />

Trustee in respect of payments due on such Note whilst such Note is represented by a Global Note and<br />

the Issuer or the Note Trustee, as the case may be, shall be discharged by payment of the relevant<br />

amount to the registered holder of the relevant Global Note.<br />

(b) Definitive Notes: Payments of principal and interest (except where, after such payment, the unpaid<br />

principal amount of the relevant Note would be reduced to zero (including as a result of any other<br />

payment of principal due in respect of such Note), in which case the relevant payment of principal or<br />

interest, as the case may be, will be made only against surrender of such Note) in respect of Definitive<br />

Notes will be made by sterling cheque drawn on a branch of, or by transfer to a sterling account held<br />

with a bank in London posted to the holder (or to the first-named of joint holders) of such Definitive<br />

Note at the address shown in the register maintained by the Registrar listing all holders of Definitive<br />

Notes (the “Register”) not later than the due date for such payment. If any payment due in respect of<br />

any Definitive Note is not paid in full, the Registrar will annotate the Register with a record of the<br />

amount, if any, so paid.<br />

Upon application by the holder of a Definitive Note to the specified office of the Registrar not later<br />

than the Record Date for payment in respect of such Definitive Note, such payment may be made by<br />

transfer to a sterling account maintained by the payee with a branch of a bank in London, United<br />

Kingdom. Any such application for transfer to such account shall be deemed to relate to all future<br />

171


payments in respect of such Definitive Note until such time as the Registrar is notified in writing to the<br />

contrary by the holder thereof.<br />

(c) Laws and Regulations: Payments of principal, interest and premium (if any) in respect of the Notes are<br />

subject in all cases to any fiscal or other laws and regulations applicable thereto.<br />

(d) Overdue Principal Payments: If payment of principal is improperly withheld or refused on or in<br />

respect of any Note or part thereof, the interest which continues to accrue in respect of such Note or<br />

part thereof in accordance with Condition 5(a) (Period of Accrual) will be paid against presentation of<br />

such Note at the specified office of any Paying Agent, and in the case of any Definitive Note, will be<br />

paid in accordance with Condition 7(b) (Definitive Notes).<br />

any time to vary or terminate the appointment of the Principal Paying Agent, any other Paying Agent,<br />

the Registrar and/or the Agent Bank and to appoint additional or other Agents. The Issuer will at all<br />

times maintain an <strong>Irish</strong> Paying Agent with a specified office in Dublin, for so long as the Notes are<br />

listed on the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong>. The Issuer will cause at least 30 days’ notice of any change in or<br />

addition to the Paying Agents or the Registrar or their specified offices to be given to the Noteholders<br />

in accordance with Condition 15 (Notice to Noteholders). The Issuer will maintain a Paying Agent in a<br />

Member State of the <strong>Europe</strong>an Union that will not be obliged to withhold or deduct tax pursuant to<br />

<strong>Europe</strong>an Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in<br />

order to conform to, such Directive.<br />

(f) Presentation on Non-Business Days: If any Note is presented for payment on a day which is not a<br />

business day in the place where it is so presented, payment shall be made on the next succeeding day<br />

that is such a business day and no further payments of additional amounts by way of interest, principal<br />

or otherwise shall be due in respect of such Note. For the purposes of Condition 6 (Redemption and<br />

Cancellation) and this Condition 7, “business day” shall mean, in relation to any place, a day on which<br />

commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments in that place and (in the case of<br />

payment by transfer to a sterling account as referred to in Condition 7(b) (Definitive Notes)) on which<br />

the TARGET system is open for settlement of payments in sterling.<br />

(g) Accrual of Interest on Late Payments: If interest is not paid in respect of a Note of any class on the<br />

date when due and payable (other than because the due date is not a business day (as defined in<br />

Condition 7(f) (Presentation on Non-Business Days) or by reason of non-compliance with Condition<br />

7(a) (Global Notes) or 7(b) (Definitive Notes), then such unpaid interest shall itself bear interest at the<br />

applicable Rate of Interest (or the Class X Interest Rate in respect of interest on the Class X Notes or<br />

the Class V Interest Rate in respect of the Class V Notes) until such interest and interest thereon is<br />

available for payment and notice thereof has been duly given to the Noteholders in accordance with<br />

Condition 15 (Notice to Noteholders), provided that such interest and interest thereon are, in fact, paid.<br />

(h) Partial Payments: If a Paying Agent makes a partial payment in respect of any Note presented to it for<br />

payment, such Paying Agent will endorse on the relevant Note a statement indicating the amount and<br />

date of such payment.<br />

(i) Record Date: For the purpose of this Condition 7, the holder of a Global Note or, as the case may be, a<br />

Definitive Note will be deemed to be the person shown from time to time as the holder (or the firstnamed<br />

of joint holders) in the records of Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg (in the case Global<br />

Notes) or on the Register maintained pursuant to Condition 7(b), on the 12 th calendar day of the month<br />

in which a Payment Date occurs (in each case, the “Record Date”).<br />

8. Taxation<br />

All payments in respect of the Notes will be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of<br />

any present or future taxes, duties or charges of whatsoever nature unless the Issuer or any relevant Paying<br />

Agent is required by applicable law in any jurisdiction to make any payment in respect of the Notes subject<br />

to any such withholding or deduction. In that event, the Issuer or such Paying Agent (as the case may be)<br />

shall make such payment after such withholding or deduction has been made and shall account to the<br />

172


elevant authorities for the amount so required to be withheld or deducted. Neither the Issuer nor any<br />

Paying Agent will be obliged to make any additional payments to holders of Notes in respect of such<br />

withholding or deduction.<br />

9. Prescription<br />

Claims for principal in respect of Global Notes shall become void unless the relevant Global Notes are<br />

presented for payment within ten years of the appropriate relevant date. Claims for interest in respect of<br />

Global Notes shall become void unless the relevant Global Notes are presented for payment within five<br />

years of the appropriate relevant date.<br />

Claims for principal and interest in respect of Definitive Notes shall become void unless made within ten<br />

years, in the case of principal, and five years, in the case of interest, of the appropriate relevant date.<br />

In this Condition 9, the “relevant date” means the date on which a payment first becomes due, but if the<br />

full amount of the moneys payable has not been received by the relevant Paying Agent or the Note Trustee<br />

together with the next most senior class of Notes then outstanding (if any) (other than the Class X<br />

Resolution of the most senior class of Noteholders (other than the Class X Noteholders or the<br />

Class V Noteholders) then outstanding; or<br />

(E) proceedings shall be initiated against the Issuer under any applicable liquidation, insolvency,<br />

intention to appoint an administrator) in relation to the Issuer or any part of its undertaking,<br />

property or assets, or an encumbrancer shall take possession of all or any part of the<br />

undertaking, property or assets of the Issuer, or a distress, execution, diligence or other<br />

process shall be levied or enforced upon or sued against all or any part of the undertaking,<br />

property or assets of the Issuer and such appointment, possession or process is not discharged<br />

11. Enforcement<br />

Subject to the provisions of Condition 16 (Subordination), and the provisions in this Condition 11<br />

(Enforcement) concerning an Extraordinary Resolution directing the cessation of the Special Servicer’s<br />

involvement in enforcement of any of the Issuer Security, the Note Trustee may, at its discretion and<br />

without notice, take such proceedings and/or other action or steps against or in relation to the Issuer or any<br />

174


other person as it may think fit to enforce the provisions of the Notes, the Note Trust Deed, these<br />

Conditions and the other Transaction Documents to which it is party and the Note Trustee may, at any time<br />

after the Issuer Security has become enforceable, at its discretion and without notice, take such steps as it<br />

may think fit to enforce the Issuer Security (other than the Libra Loan, its Related Security or any related<br />

MIP Properties (except in the circumstances described in the following sentence)) and, for so long as the<br />

Issuer is not the subject of any insolvency proceedings, shall instruct the Special Servicer in writing to sell<br />

or otherwise liquidate (or otherwise direct a receiver, liquidator, administrator, or other such party, if one<br />

has been selected by the Note Trustee, to sell or otherwise liquidate on its behalf), the Libra Loan, its<br />

Related Security or any related MIP Properties. If the Issuer Security has become enforceable upon the<br />

Issuer’s becoming subject to insolvency proceedings (or in any other circumstance where the Special<br />

Servicer is unable to fulfil its obligations under the preceding sentence) the Note Trustee may, at its<br />

discretion and without notice, itself take such steps as it may think fit to enforce the Issuer Security over the<br />

Libra Loan, its Related Security or any related MIP Properties but shall: (a) involve the Special Servicer in<br />

all discussions relating to the sale or liquidation of that portion of the Issuer Security consisting of the Libra<br />

Loan, its Related Security or related MIP Properties; and (b) allow the Special Servicer to make all strategic<br />

decisions relating to the sale or liquidation of such Issuer Security to the extent that the Note Trustee is<br />

involved in such decision making. In any event, neither the Note Trustee nor the Special Servicer, as<br />

applicable shall be bound to take any such proceedings, action or steps or to give such instructions unless:<br />

(a) subject to the proviso below, it is directed to do so by an Extraordinary Resolution of the Class A<br />

Noteholders, the Class B Noteholders, the Class C Noteholders, the Class D Noteholders or the Class E<br />

Noteholders, or by a direction in writing signed by the holders of at least 25 per cent. in aggregate of<br />

the Principal Amount Outstanding of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes, the<br />

Class D Notes and the Class E Notes then outstanding; and<br />

(b) it shall be indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction against all actions, proceedings, claims and<br />

demands to which it may thereby render itself liable and all liabilities, losses, costs, charges, damages<br />

and expenses including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses on a full indemnity basis,<br />

(including any VAT thereon) which it may incur by so doing,<br />

PROVIDED THAT:<br />

(i) for so long as any Class A Note is outstanding, the Note Trustee shall not be bound to act at the<br />

direction of the Class B Noteholders unless (A) to do so would not, in the opinion of the Note<br />

Trustee, be materially prejudicial to the interests of the Class A Noteholders, or (B) such action is<br />

sanctioned by, or the Note Trustee has also been directed to take such action by, an Extraordinary<br />

Resolution of the Class A Noteholders, or by a direction in writing signed by the holders of at least<br />

Class A Notes shall not be considered “outstanding” for the purposes of this Condition 11(b)(i)<br />

(Enforcement) but shall be treated as Class B Notes and shall vote with the Class B Notes as a<br />

single class for the purpose of any such Extraordinary Resolution or written direction as is referred<br />

to in paragraph (a) above;<br />

(ii) for so long as any Class A Note or Class B Note is outstanding, the Note Trustee shall not be<br />

bound to act at the direction of the Class C Noteholders unless (A) to do so would not, in the<br />

Noteholders and the Class B Noteholders or (B) such action is sanctioned by, or the Note Trustee<br />

has also been directed to take such action by, an Extraordinary Resolution of each of the Class A<br />

Noteholders and the Class B Noteholders or by a direction in writing signed by the holders of at<br />

least 25 per cent. in aggregate of the Principal Amount Outstanding of each of the Class A Notes<br />

and the Class B Notes then outstanding provided that, if the Principal Amount Outstanding of the<br />

Class B Notes is then less than 10 per cent. of the Principal Amount Outstanding of such class as at<br />

Class C Notes as a single class for the purpose of any such Extraordinary Resolution or written<br />

direction as is referred to in paragraph (a) above;<br />

A Noteholders, the Class B Noteholders and the Class C Noteholders or (B) such action is<br />

sanctioned by, or the Note Trustee has also been directed to take such action by, an Extraordinary<br />

Resolution of each of the Class A Noteholders, the Class B Noteholders and the Class C<br />

Noteholders or by a direction in writing signed by the holders of at least 25 per cent. in aggregate<br />

(iv) for so long as any Class A Note, Class B Note, Class C Note or Class D Note is outstanding, the<br />

Note Trustee shall not be bound to act at the direction of the Class E Noteholders unless (A) to do<br />

so would not, in the opinion of the Note Trustee, be materially prejudicial to the respective<br />

interests of the Class A Noteholders, the Class B Noteholders, the Class C Noteholders and the<br />

Class D Noteholders or (B) such action is sanctioned by, or the Note Trustee has also been directed<br />

to take such action by, an Extraordinary Resolution of each of the Class A Noteholders, the Class<br />

B Noteholders, the Class C Noteholders and the Class D Noteholders or by a direction in writing<br />

signed by the holders of at least 25 per cent. in aggregate of the Principal Amount Outstanding of<br />

each of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes then<br />

outstanding provided that, if the Principal Amount Outstanding of the Class D Notes is then less<br />

(Enforcement) but shall be treated as Class E Notes and shall vote with the Class E Notes as a<br />

single class for the purpose of any such Extraordinary Resolution or written direction as is referred<br />

to in paragraph (a) above; and<br />

(v) at no time shall the Note Trustee be bound to act at the direction or request of the Class X<br />

Noteholders or the Class V Noteholders.<br />

(c) No Noteholder shall be entitled to proceed directly against the Issuer or any other party to the<br />

Transaction Documents or to enforce the Issuer Security unless the Note Trustee, having become<br />

bound to do so, fails to do so within a reasonable period and such failure shall be continuing provided<br />

that: (i) no Class B Noteholder, Class C Noteholder, Class D Noteholder or Class E Noteholder for so<br />

long as any Class A Notes are outstanding; (ii) no Class C Noteholder, Class D Noteholder or Class E<br />

Noteholder for so long as any Class A Note or any Class B Note is outstanding; (iii) no Class D<br />

Noteholder or Class E Noteholder for so long as any Class A Note, any Class B Note or any Class C<br />

Class C Note or any Class D Note is outstanding and (v) in any event, no Class X Noteholder or Class<br />

V Noteholder shall be entitled to take proceedings for the winding up, liquidation, examination or<br />

administration of the Issuer. The Note Trustee cannot, while any of the Notes are outstanding, be<br />

required to enforce the Issuer Security at the request of any other Secured Party under the Deed of<br />

Charge and Assignment.<br />

(d) If the net proceeds of realisation of, or enforcement with respect to, the Issuer Security are not<br />

sufficient to discharge all of the Issuer’s obligations secured thereby, the Issuer’s other assets will not<br />

be available for payment of any shortfall arising therefrom, which shortfall will be borne in accordance<br />

with the provisions of these Conditions and the Deed of Charge and Assignment. All claims in respect<br />

of such shortfall, after realisation of or enforcement with respect to all of the Issuer Security, shall be<br />

extinguished and the Note Trustee, the Noteholders and the other Secured Parties shall have no further<br />

claim against the Issuer in respect of such unpaid amounts. Each Noteholder, by subscribing for or<br />

purchasing Notes, as applicable, is deemed to acknowledge and accept that it is fully aware that, in the<br />

event of an enforcement of the Issuer Security, (i) its right to obtain repayment in full is limited to the<br />

Issuer Security and (ii) the Issuer will have duly and entirely fulfilled its payment obligations by<br />

making available to each Noteholder its relevant proportion of the proceeds of realisation or<br />

enforcement of the Issuer Security in accordance with these Conditions and the Deed of Charge and<br />

Assignment, and all claims in respect of any shortfall will be extinguished.<br />

176

Interests (Jersey) Law 1983, as amended, as further provided in the Deed of Charge and Assignment.<br />

Charge and Assignment.<br />

class for the time being outstanding, or at any adjourned such meeting, not less than 33⅓ per cent. of<br />

the Principal Amount Outstanding of the Notes of the relevant class for the time being outstanding.<br />

The foregoing notwithstanding, the implementation of any Basic Terms Modifications will be subject<br />

to the receipt of written confirmation from each Rating Agency then rating the Notes that the then<br />

current ratings of each class of Notes rated thereby will not be qualified, downgraded or withdrawn as a<br />

result of such modification. Additionally, written notice of such modifications shall be provided to the<br />

<strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong>.<br />

An Extraordinary Resolution passed at any meeting of the Noteholders of any class shall be binding on<br />

all Noteholders of such class whether or not they are present at such meeting.<br />

(i) The Note Trustee may agree, without the consent of the Noteholders of any class, (i) to any<br />

modification (except a Basic Terms Modification) of, or to any waiver or authorisation of any breach or<br />

proposed breach of, the Notes, the Note Trust Deed (including these Conditions) or any of the other<br />

Transaction Documents (except any breach or proposed breach in respect of a provision, the<br />

179


modification of which would constitute a Basic Terms Modification) which, in the opinion of the Note<br />

Trustee, is not materially prejudicial to the interests of the Noteholders of any class or (ii) to any<br />

modification of the Notes, the Note Trust Deed (including these Conditions) or any of the other<br />

Transaction Documents which, in the opinion of the Note Trustee, is to correct a manifest error or a<br />

proven (to the satisfaction of the Note Trustee) error or is of a formal, minor or technical nature and the<br />

Note Trustee may also, without the consent of the Noteholders of any class, determine that a Note<br />

Event of Default shall, or shall not subject to specified conditions, be treated as such if such<br />

determination is not, in the opinion of the Note Trustee, materially prejudicial to the interests of the<br />

Noteholders of any class; provided always that the Note Trustee shall not exercise such powers of<br />

modification, waiver, authorisation or determination in contravention of any express written direction<br />

given by the Eligible Noteholders or by an Extraordinary Resolution of the most senior class of<br />

Noteholders (other than the Class X Noteholders or the Class V Noteholders) then outstanding<br />

(provided that no such direction shall affect any modification, authorisation, waiver or determination<br />

previously made or given). Any such modification, waiver, authorisation or determination shall be<br />

binding on the Noteholders and, unless the Note Trustee agrees otherwise, any such modification shall<br />

be notified to the Noteholders as soon as practicable thereafter in accordance with Condition 15 (Notice<br />

to Noteholders).<br />

(j) Where the Note Trustee is required, in connection with the exercise of its powers, trusts, authorities,<br />

duties and discretions under or in relation to the Note Trust Deed, the Notes, the Conditions or any<br />

other Transaction Documents, to have regard to the interests of the Noteholders or, as the case may be,<br />

the Noteholders of any class, it shall have regard to the interests of such Noteholders as a class and, in<br />

particular, but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the Note Trustee shall not have<br />

regard to, or be in any way liable for, the consequences of such exercise for individual Noteholders<br />

resulting from their being for any purpose domiciled or resident in, or otherwise connected with, or<br />

subject to the jurisdiction of, any particular territory and the Note Trustee shall not be entitled to<br />

require, nor shall any Noteholder be entitled to claim, from the Issuer or the Note Trustee or any other<br />

person, any indemnification or payment in respect of any tax consequence of any such exercise upon<br />

individual Noteholders.<br />

(k) The Note Trustee shall be entitled to determine, for the purposes of exercising any power, trust,<br />

authority, duty or discretion under or in relation to the Note Trust Deed, these Conditions or any of the<br />

other Transaction Documents, that such exercise will not be materially prejudicial to the interests of the<br />

Noteholders or any class of Noteholders. In making a determination whether or not any event, matter<br />

or thing is, in its opinion, materially prejudicial to the interests of the Noteholders or any class of<br />

Noteholders, the Note Trustee shall be entitled to take into account, among other things, any<br />

confirmation (whether or not addressed to the Note Trustee) by the Rating Agencies (if available) that<br />

the then current rating of the Notes of each relevant class would, or, as the case may be, would not, be<br />

adversely affected by such event, matter or thing.<br />

(l) The Note Trustee may, without the consent of the Noteholders, agree with the Issuer to the substitution<br />

in place of the Issuer (or of any previous substitute under this condition) as the principal debtor in<br />

respect of the Notes and the Note Trust Deed of another body corporate (being a single purpose<br />

vehicle) provided that each Rating Agency then rating the Notes has confirmed in writing to the Note<br />

Trustee that the then current ratings of each class of Notes rated thereby will not be qualified,<br />

downgraded or withdrawn as a result of such substitution, and provided further that such substitution<br />

would not in the opinion of the Note Trustee be materially prejudicial to the interests of the<br />

Noteholders of any class and subject to certain other conditions set out in the Note Trust Deed being<br />

complied with or to be complied with (or suitable arrangements in place to ensure compliance with<br />

such conditions). In the case of substitution of the Issuer (or of any such previous substitute), the <strong>Irish</strong><br />

<strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> shall be notified of such substitution, a supplemental offering circular will be prepared<br />

and filed with the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> and notice of the substitution will be given to the Noteholders<br />

in accordance with Condition 15 (Notice to Noteholders) as soon as practicable thereafter.<br />

(m) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Condition 12 (Meetings of Noteholders, Modification<br />

and Waiver and Substitution), where pursuant to the terms of this Condition 12, an Extraordinary<br />

Resolution passed by any class of Notes binds any more junior class or classes of Notes, if the Principal<br />

Amount Outstanding of such senior class of Notes has been reduced to less than 10 per cent. of the<br />

Principal Amount Outstanding of such class as at the Closing Date, such senior class of Notes shall not<br />

be considered as outstanding for the purposes of this Condition, the power of passing such an<br />

Extraordinary Resolution binding any more junior class or classes of Notes shall pass to the next most<br />

180


senior class of Notes then outstanding (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes) and the<br />

holders of the Notes of such first-mentioned senior class shall for the purposes of passing such an<br />

Extraordinary Resolution be counted as a single class with such next most senior class of Notes then<br />

outstanding.<br />

13. Indemnification and Exoneration of the Note Trustee<br />

The Note Trust Deed, the Deed of Charge and Assignment, the Servicing Agreement and certain of the<br />

other Transaction Documents contain provisions governing the responsibility (and relief from<br />

responsibility) of the Note Trustee and for its indemnification in certain circumstances, including provisions<br />

relieving it from taking enforcement proceedings or enforcing the Issuer Security unless indemnified and/or<br />

secured to its satisfaction. The Note Trustee will not be responsible for any loss, expense or liability which<br />

may be suffered as a result of any assets comprised in the Issuer Security, or any deeds or documents of title<br />

thereto, being uninsured or inadequately insured or being held by or to the order of other parties to the<br />

Transaction Documents, clearing organisations or their operators or by intermediaries such as banks,<br />

brokers, depositories, warehousemen or other similar persons whether or not on behalf of the Note Trustee.<br />

The Note Trustee will remain liable for any loss, expense or liability which may be suffered as a result of its<br />

negligence, fraud or wilful error.<br />

The Note Trust Deed and the Deed of Charge and Assignment contain provisions pursuant to which the<br />

Note Trustee or any of its related companies is entitled, among other things, (i) to enter into business<br />

transactions with the Issuer and or any other person who is a party to the Transaction Documents or whose<br />

obligations are comprised in the Issuer Security and/or any of their subsidiary or associated companies and<br />

to act as trustee for the holders of any other securities issued by or relating to the Issuer and/or any other<br />

person who is a party to the Transaction Documents or whose obligations are comprised in the Issuer<br />

Security and/or any of their subsidiary or associated companies, (ii) to exercise and enforce its rights,<br />

comply with its obligations and perform its duties under or in relation to any such transactions or, as the<br />

case may be, any such trusteeship without regard to the interests of the Noteholders or any other Secured<br />

Party, and (iii) to retain and not be liable to account for any profit made or any other amount or benefit<br />

received thereby or in connection therewith.<br />

The Deed of Charge and Assignment provides that the Note Trustee shall accept without investigation,<br />

requisition or objection such right and title as the Issuer may have to the Issuer’s property secured pursuant<br />

to the Deed of Charge and Assignment and the other Transaction Documents and shall not be bound or<br />

concerned to examine such right and title, and the Note Trustee shall not be liable for any defect or failure<br />

in the right or title of the Issuer to the property secured pursuant to the Transaction Documents whether<br />

such defect or failure was known to the Note Trustee or might have been discovered upon examination or<br />

enquiry and whether capable of remedy or not. The Note Trustee has no responsibility in relation to the<br />

validity, sufficiency and enforceability of the Issuer Security. The Note Trustee will not be obliged to take<br />

any action which might result in its incurring personal liabilities unless indemnified and/or secured to its<br />

satisfaction or to supervise the performance by the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Cash Manager, the<br />

Advance Provider, the Backup Advance Provider, the Swap Provider, the Paying Agents or any other<br />

person of their obligations under the Transaction Documents and the Note Trustee shall assume, until it has<br />

actual knowledge or express notice to the contrary, that all such persons are properly performing their<br />

duties, notwithstanding that the Issuer Security (or any part thereof) may, as a consequence, be treated as<br />

floating rather than fixed security.<br />

14. Replacement of Global Notes and Definitive Notes<br />

If any Global Note or Definitive Note is mutilated, defaced, lost, stolen or destroyed, it may be replaced at<br />

the specified office of any Paying Agent or the Registrar upon payment by the claimant of the expenses<br />

incurred in connection with such replacement and on such terms as to evidence and indemnity as the Issuer,<br />

the Paying Agent, the Registrar or the Note Trustee may reasonably require. Mutilated or defaced Global<br />

Notes or Definitive Notes must be surrendered before replacements will be issued.<br />

15. Notice to Noteholders<br />

(a) All notices, other than notices given in accordance with the following paragraphs of this Condition 15<br />

(Notice to Noteholders), to Noteholders shall be deemed to have been validly given if published in a<br />

leading daily newspaper printed in the English language and with general circulation in Dublin (which<br />

is expected to be The <strong>Irish</strong> Times) or, if that is not practicable, in such English language newspaper or<br />

181


newspapers as the Note Trustee shall approve having a general circulation in Ireland and the rest of<br />

<strong>Europe</strong>. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of such publication or, if<br />

published more than once or on different dates, on the first date on which publication shall have been<br />

made in the newspaper or newspapers in which publication is required. For so long as the Notes of any<br />

class are represented by Global Notes, notices to Noteholders will be validly given if published as<br />

described above or, for so long as the Notes are listed on the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> and the rules of the<br />

<strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> so allow, if delivered to the Common Depository for communication by it to<br />

Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg for communication by them to their participants and for<br />

communication by such participants to entitled accountholders. Any notice delivered to Euroclear<br />

and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg as aforesaid shall be deemed to have been given on the day on which<br />

it is delivered to the Common Depository.<br />

(b) Any notice specifying a Payment Date, a Rate of Interest, a Class X Interest Rate, a Class V Interest<br />

Rate, an Interest Amount, a Note Factor or a Principal Amount Outstanding shall be deemed to have<br />

been duly given if the information contained in such notice appears on the relevant page of the Reuters<br />

Screen or such other medium for the electronic display of data as may be previously approved in<br />

writing by the Note Trustee and notified to the Noteholders pursuant to Condition 15(a) (Notice to<br />

Noteholders). Any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the first date on which such<br />

information appeared on the relevant screen. If it is impossible or impractical to give notice in<br />

accordance with this paragraph then notice of the matters referred to in this paragraph shall be given in<br />

accordance with Condition 15(a) (Notice to Noteholders). The Cash Manager may give Statements to<br />

Noteholders and notice of an NAI Amount, a Note Factor or the NAI through its website, which is<br />

initially located at www.etrustee.net.<br />

(c) A copy of each notice given in accordance with this Condition 15 (Notice to Noteholders) shall be<br />

provided to (for so long as the Notes of any class are listed on the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong>) the Company<br />

Announcements Office of the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong>, to Moody’s Investor Service <strong>Limited</strong><br />

(“Moody’s”), Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.)<br />

(“S&P”) and Fitch Ratings Ltd. (“Fitch” and together with S&P and Moody’s, the “Rating<br />

Agencies”) to which reference in these Conditions shall include any additional or replacement rating<br />

agency appointed by the Issuer to provide a credit rating in respect of the Notes or any class thereof).<br />

For the avoidance of doubt, and unless the context otherwise requires, all references to rating and<br />

ratings in these Conditions shall be deemed to be references to the ratings assigned by the Rating<br />

Agencies.<br />

(d) The Note Trustee shall be at liberty to sanction some other method of giving notice to the Noteholders<br />

or to a class or category of them if, in its opinion, such other method is reasonable having regard to<br />

market practice then prevailing and to the requirements of the stock exchange on which the Notes are<br />

then listed and provided that notice of such other method is given to the Noteholders in such manner as<br />

the Note Trustee shall require.<br />

16. Subordination<br />

Subject to Conditions 6(a) (Final Redemption), 6(b) (Mandatory Redemption from Principal Distribution<br />

Amounts, Sequential Principal Distribution Amounts and Pro Rata Principal Distribution Amounts), 6(c)<br />

(Mandatory Redemption for Tax Reasons), 6(d) (Mandatory Redemption upon Exercise of Call Option), 10<br />

(Note Events of Default) and 11 (Enforcement), while any Class A Notes are outstanding, the Class B<br />

Noteholders, the Class C Noteholders, the Class D Noteholders and the Class E Noteholder, shall not be<br />

entitled to any repayment of principal in respect of the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes<br />

and the Class E Notes, respectively. Subject to Conditions 6(a), 6(b), 6(c), 6(d), 10 and 11, while any Class<br />

B Notes are outstanding, the Class C Noteholders, the Class D Noteholders and the Class E Noteholders<br />

will not be entitled to any repayment of principal in respect of the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes or the<br />

Class E Notes, respectively. Subject to Conditions 6(a), 6(b), 6(c), 6(d), 10 and 11, while any Class C<br />

Notes are outstanding, the Class D Noteholders and the Class E Noteholders shall not be entitled to any<br />

repayment of principal in respect of the Class D Notes or the Class E Notes respectively. Subject to<br />

Conditions 6(a), 6(b), 6(c), 6(d), 10 and 11, while any Class D Notes are outstanding, the Class E<br />

Noteholders shall not be entitled to any repayment of principal in respect of the Class E Notes. Subject to<br />

Condition 6(h) (Mandatory Redemption in part of the Class X Notes and Class V Notes), while any Class A<br />

Notes, Class B Notes, Class C Notes, Class D Notes or Class E Notes are outstanding, the Class X<br />

Noteholders and the Class V Noteholders shall not be entitled to any repayment of principal in respect of<br />

the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes, respectively.<br />

182


17. Privity of Contract<br />

The Notes do not confer any right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any<br />

term of the Notes, but this does not affect any right or remedy of a third party which exists or is available<br />

apart from the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.<br />

18. Governing Law<br />

The Note Trust Deed, the Deed of Charge and Assignment, the Agency Agreement, the other Transaction<br />

Documents and the Notes are governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, English law other<br />

than: the Corporate Services Agreement, which is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with<br />

the laws of Ireland; and certain aspects of Transaction Documents are or will be governed by Scots law,<br />

Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law or Jersey law to the extent that such aspects relate to assets located in Scotland, Northern<br />

Ireland or Jersey or governed by the laws of Scotland, Northern Ireland or Jersey.<br />

19. U.S. Tax Treatment and Provision of Information<br />

(a) It is the intention of the Issuer, each Noteholder and beneficial owner (“Owner”) of an interest in the<br />

Notes that the Notes will be indebtedness of the Issuer for United States federal, state and local income<br />

and franchise tax purposes and for the purposes of any other United States federal, state and local tax<br />

imposed on or measured by income (the “Intended U.S. Tax Treatment”).<br />

To the extent applicable and absent a final determination by the United States Internal Revenue Service<br />

(“IRS”) to the contrary, the Issuer will treat the Notes as debt for purposes of United States federal,<br />

state and local income or franchise taxes and any other United States federal, state and local taxes<br />

imposed on or measured by income. In addition, each Noteholder and Owner, by acceptance of a Note,<br />

or a beneficial interest therein, agree to treat the Notes, for purposes of United States federal, state and<br />

local income or franchise taxes and any other United States federal, state and local taxes imposed on or<br />

measured by income, in a manner consistent with the Intended U.S. Tax Treatment and to report the<br />

Notes on all applicable tax returns in a manner consistent with such treatment, unless there has been a<br />

final determination by the IRS that such treatment is improper.<br />

(b) For so long as any Notes remain outstanding and are “restricted securities” (as defined in Rule<br />

144(a)(3) under the Securities Act), the Issuer shall, during any period in which it is neither subject to<br />

Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the <strong>Exchange</strong> Act nor exempt from reporting pursuant to rule 12g3-2(b)<br />

thereunder, furnish, at its expense, to any holder of, or Owner of an interest in, such Notes in<br />

connection with any resale thereof and to any prospective purchaser designated by such holder or<br />

Owner, in each case upon request, the information specified in, and meeting the requirements of, Rule<br />

144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.<br />

20. Controlling Class<br />

The Controlling Class, from time to time, may appoint not more than one Noteholder of such class to be<br />

their adviser for the purposes of this Condition (each such person, a “Controlling Class Representative”).<br />

The Controlling Class Representative shall be entitled to exercise all of the rights, powers and discretions<br />

given to it pursuant to the Servicing Agreement as it sees fit. At no time may the Controlling Class<br />

Representative be a Class X Noteholder or a Class V Noteholder or a Borrower or an entity affiliated with a<br />

Borrower.<br />

The appointment of the Controlling Class Representative will be effective upon receipt by each of the<br />

Issuer, the Note Trustee, the Servicer and the Special Servicer of written notice of such appointment by<br />

holders of more than 50 per cent. in aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the Controlling Class. The<br />

appointment by the Controlling Class does not need to be made pursuant to an Extraordinary Resolution.<br />

All members of the Controlling Class are permitted to participate in the election of a Controlling Class<br />

Representative.<br />

The Controlling Class may terminate the appointment of the Controlling Class Representative at any time<br />

and appoint a successor in the same manner as the election of the Controlling Class Representative.<br />

The Controlling Class Representative may retire by giving not less than 21 days’ notice in writing to the<br />

Noteholders of the Controlling Class (in accordance with the terms of Condition 15 (Notice to<br />

Noteholders)), the Note Trustee, the Servicer and the Special Servicer.<br />

183


Until a Controlling Class Representative is appointed, if a Controlling Class which has appointed a<br />

Controlling Class Representative ceases to meet the Controlling Class Test, or if an existing Controlling<br />

Class Representative resigns or is removed by the relevant Controlling Class and a successor has not been<br />

appointed, there shall be no Controlling Class Representative.<br />

Where:<br />

“Controlling Class” means the most junior class of Notes (other than at any time the Class X Notes or the<br />

Class V Notes) outstanding from time to time which meets the Controlling Class Test.<br />

A class of Notes shall meet the “Controlling Class Test” if such Class of Notes’ Proportion Ratio is not<br />

less than 25 per cent. of its Proportion Ratio as at the Closing Date, as determined by the Cash Manager. If<br />

no class satisfies this requirement, the Controlling Class will be the most junior class of Notes then<br />

outstanding (other than Class X Notes and Class V Notes). The Note Trustee shall determine which class<br />

of Notes meets the Controlling Class Test and shall notify the Servicer and Special Servicer accordingly.<br />

The “Proportion Ratio” for any Class of Notes as at any date of calculation is the ratio of its Principal<br />

Amount Outstanding to the Principal Amount Outstanding of all of the Notes.<br />

Each Noteholder acknowledges and agrees, by its purchase of the Notes, that:<br />

(a) the Controlling Class Representative may have special relationships and interests that conflict with<br />

those of the holders of one or more other classes of the Notes;<br />

(b) the Controlling Class Representative may act solely in the interests of the Controlling Class;<br />

(c) the Controlling Class Representative does not have any duties to any Noteholders other than the<br />

Controlling Class;<br />

(d) the Controlling Class Representative may take actions that favour the interests of the Noteholders of<br />

the Controlling Class over the interests of the other Noteholders;<br />

(e) the Controlling Class Representative will not be deemed to have been negligent or reckless, or to have<br />

acted in bad faith or engaged in wilful misconduct, by reason only of its having acted solely in the<br />

interests of the Controlling Class; and<br />

(f) the Controlling Class Representative will have no liability whatsoever for having acted solely in the<br />

interests of the Controlling Class, and no holder of any other class of Notes may take any action<br />

whatsoever against the Controlling Class Representative for having so acted.<br />

21. <strong>Limited</strong> Recourse<br />

The ability of the Issuer to meet its obligations under the Notes will depend on payments received by it<br />

under the Libra Loan and (if applicable) Advances received under the Servicing Agreement. In the event of<br />

non-payment, the only remedy for recovering amounts due on the Notes is through enforcement of the<br />

Issuer Security. If the Issuer Security is enforced, the proceeds of enforcement may be insufficient to pay<br />

all principal and interest due on the Notes, and neither the Note Trustee nor the Noteholders may take any<br />

further steps against the Issuer in respect of amounts payable on the Notes and all such claims against the<br />

Issuer shall be extinguished and discharged.<br />

184


OFFERING EXPENSES<br />

Fees and expenses relating to the issuance of the Notes are expected to be approximately £3,000,000. The<br />

fees in relation to the application for admission of the Notes to the Official List of the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> and<br />

to trading on its regulated market will be approximately €6,500.<br />

185


Certain Matters of English Law<br />

CERTAIN ASPECTS OF THE LIBRA LOAN<br />

The following is an outline of certain aspects of English law and practice relevant to lending on a secured<br />

basis over English real property. This is not a complete summary of currently applicable English law or<br />

practice, and should not be treated as a substitute for professional advice. Prospective Noteholders who are in<br />

any doubt as to any matter described in this Offering Circular should consult their own professional advisers.<br />

Security Under English Law<br />

Mortgages. English law security over real property typically takes the form of fixed legal charges (i.e.<br />

charges by way of legal mortgage). Title to most English property is registered at the Land Registry, but if title<br />

to a particular property is unregistered, the granting of the charge will oblige the property owner to register its<br />

title at the Land Registry. Charges over real property in England and Wales created by English companies must<br />

be registered both at the Land Registry and at Companies House (i.e. with the Registrar of Companies). Failure<br />

to register the charge at the Land Registry will result in the charge being a mere equitable charge over which<br />

subsequent legal charges will take priority. Failure to register at Companies House will result in the charge<br />

being unenforceable against a liquidator, administrator or any creditor of the mortgagor.<br />

Security over Shares. Loans in respect of commercial property in the United Kingdom are often also<br />

secured by a mortgage over the shares in the company that owns the property. Such a mortgage is usually<br />

accompanied by blank share transfer forms, share certificates and directors’ resignation letters, which would<br />

allow the security trustee to complete the formalities of transferring ownership of the shares to it or its nominee<br />

without any further involvement from the mortgagor for the purpose of causing a sale at a later date to a third<br />

party and using the proceeds to satisfy the debt or effecting a foreclosure. Alternatively, the security trustee can<br />

appoint a receiver to sell the shares and use the proceeds to satisfy the debt, in the manner described below<br />

under “—Enforcement of Security—Enforcement of Security Prior to Administration, Insolvency or Bankruptcy<br />

of Charging Entity—Receivership”.<br />

Security over Insurances, Leases and Rent. Typical security for a mortgage loan will include security<br />

assignments of the insurance policies covering the properties. The lender will usually require that the interests<br />

of the security trustee be noted on the insurance policies, although on some loans the security trustee is made a<br />

co-insured party or more rarely sole loss payee.<br />

Similarly, security assignments of any leases of the property and all rents payable thereunder will also<br />

usually be obtained.<br />

Security over Bank Accounts. English law allows a special form of security known as a floating charge to<br />

be taken over particular types of short-term business assets which are acquired and disposed of on a continuous<br />

basis in the course of a business. One of the principal features of the floating charge is that the chargor is free to<br />

use and dispose of the charged assets during the course of its business without the need to obtain the consent of<br />

or otherwise involve the chargee.<br />

Floating charges are subject to certain limitations from a lender’s perspective which are described in more<br />

detail below. Lenders have sought to overcome these limitations by seeking to take fixed charges over such<br />

assets. In a series of cases the English courts have laid down the principle that where the chargor of assets is<br />

entitled to dispose of them free of the chargee’s security without the consent of the chargee, the security in<br />

question will be a floating charge regardless of how the charge is described in the charging document.<br />

While initially the abovementioned principles were designed in the context of assets such as the stock-intrade<br />

of manufacturing companies, over time they were expanded to cover fluctuating credit balances in bank<br />

accounts as these were seen to have similar features from the point of view of taking security.<br />

In order to establish a fixed charge under English law over a bank account, the security trustee creditor must<br />

not only have the right under the terms of the charge to control withdrawals from the account but must also<br />

actually exercise this control in practice on an ongoing basis.<br />

Enforcement of a charge over a bank account would usually occur through the appointment of a receiver to<br />

realise the asset, collect funds from the account, and use them to repay the debt. See “—Enforcement of<br />

Security” below.<br />

186


Floating Charge. A lender will typically seek floating security with respect to a loan. Floating security is an<br />

immediate equitable charge over all or nearly all of the borrower’s existing and future assets. On an event of<br />

default (or on any other basis specified in the charging document) a floating charge will crystallise, attaching to<br />

the borrower’s then-existing assets and conferring priority over general creditors. Prior to crystallisation, the<br />

floating charge is unattached to any particular property or asset and the borrower is at liberty to deal with that<br />

property in the ordinary course of its business.<br />

In the context of commercial property lending, mortgages and fixed charges are taken over virtually all of<br />

the significant assets of the borrower (other than those assets secured by way of a method referred to above). As<br />

such, the purpose of the floating charge is to “sweep up” any residual assets and assets acquired in the future,<br />

and to protect against any of the fixed charges which have been taken proving ineffective.<br />

Floating charges are subject to a number of significant limitations. Firstly, the nature of the charge allows<br />

the borrower to dispose of the charged assets free of the lender’s interest. As such there is a real possibility that<br />

there may be few or no assets subject to the charge at the time of enforcement. Secondly, a fixed charge allows<br />

the borrower to create prior ranking fixed security over the charged assets, which would potentially defeat the<br />

floating chargee’s interest on an enforcement. However, the terms of the central credit agreement will usually<br />

provide for an event of default to occur if the borrower attempts to create such security. Thirdly (and most<br />

importantly) certain amounts owing to certain unsecured creditors (“preferential creditors”) rank ahead of<br />

floating charge creditors.<br />

Historically there were two principal categories of preferential creditors: the Crown in respect of certain<br />

amounts of VAT, social security contributions and excise duty, and employees of the company in respect of<br />

unpaid salary and certain related amounts. In the context of commercial property lending, the terms of the credit<br />

agreement will usually prohibit the borrower from having any employees and so the second category of<br />

preferential creditors does not normally arise.<br />

Recent changes to the Insolvency Act 1986 that were implemented by the Enterprise Act 2002 abolished<br />

Crown preference and in its place imposed an obligation on the receiver, liquidator or administrator of a<br />

company, which has created a floating charge over its assets, to hold aside a portion of the proceeds of<br />

realisation of such floating security, in an amount of up to £600,000, for the satisfaction of unsecured debts in<br />

priority to the claims of the floating charge holder (the “unsecured creditors’ fund”). See “—Administration,<br />

Receivership, Insolvency and Bankruptcy Under English Law” and “Risk Factors—Loan Related Risks—<br />

Enterprise Act 2002”.<br />

Limitation on Taking Security – Registration. A fixed charge created by a company which has been<br />

registered at Companies House within 21 days of execution of such charge and, if it relates to land, at the Land<br />

Registry, will take priority over subsequent fixed charges, any floating charges and all unsecured creditors,<br />

including preferred creditors and, in the event of a liquidation, will also take priority over the liquidator’s costs.<br />

The holder of a floating charge will take priority over unsecured creditors, but will rank behind all prior and<br />

subsequent fixed charges, the preferential creditors and the unsecured creditors’ fund. In addition, a floating<br />

charge which has been registered at Companies House within 21 days of execution of such charge will take<br />

priority over subsequent floating charges and all unsecured creditors (other than preferential creditors and the<br />

unsecured creditors’ fund).<br />

Given that English company law allows 21 days from the date of creation of a charge for it to be registered<br />

at Companies House, there always remains a possibility that at the time of creation of a charge by a company, a<br />

prior charge may be in existence which has not been registered. If such a prior unregistered charge is registered<br />

at Companies House within its 21-day period it will take priority over the subsequent charge even if the<br />

subsequent charge has been registered first.<br />

Notice. Where the subject matter of an English charge consists of rights against a third party (an “obligor”)<br />

such as an insurance company under an insurance contract, a bank in respect of sums standing to the credit of a<br />

bank account or a tenant under a lease, the relative priority of competing security interests in such right will be<br />

determined in part by reference to the date on which notice of the charge was given to the relevant obligor.<br />

Hence a charge notice of which has been given to the relevant obligor will take (subject to the above) priority<br />

over a charge notice of which has not been given even if the non-notified charge was created prior to the<br />

notified one. Furthermore, where two charges have been created over the same set of rights both of which have<br />

been notified to the relevant obligor, their relative priority will be determined by the date on which the chargees<br />

gave notice to the relevant obligor.<br />

187


Set-Off. In addition to the above, charges over rights against obligors are subject to rights of set-off<br />

between the obligor and the chargor. Although the giving of notice of the charge to the obligor stops most new<br />

rights of set-off from accruing, rights of set-off which came into existence prior to the giving of notice will take<br />

effective priority over the interests of the chargee. In addition certain rights of set-off which are fundamental to<br />

the contract between the obligor and the chargor will continue to accrue even after the giving of notice.<br />

Enforcement of Security<br />

Enforcement of Security Prior to Administration, Insolvency or Bankruptcy of Charging Entity. There are<br />

three principal methods of enforcing English law non-possessory security; foreclosure, orders of sale and<br />

receivership.<br />

Foreclosure. Under English law only mortgages allow foreclosure as a method of enforcement. In the<br />

context of real property finance, these arise in relation to mortgages of the land itself and mortgages of the<br />

shares of the property-owning company. Enforcement is available to a lender through an application to the<br />

court for an order which vests the property in the lender. Such an order will have the effect of “foreclosing” any<br />

interest that the related mortgagor may have in the related properties. However, in the event that a lender<br />

forecloses on a mortgagor’s interest in a property it may be liable in respect of claims that are typically made<br />

against the owner of such property. Therefore, the foregoing enforcement procedure is generally avoided in<br />

relation to land.<br />

Orders for Sale. A lender secured by a charge (including a floating charge) or a mortgage over any asset<br />

has the right to apply to court for an order for the sale of the charged or mortgaged asset. The proceeds of sale<br />

would be applied in satisfaction of the related chargor’s or mortgagor’s obligations under the related loan<br />

agreement.<br />

Receivership. Following a default under a loan or under the security granted in relation to a loan, a lender<br />

may be able to appoint a receiver, which can be an appointment over the relevant property or over all of the<br />

assets of a corporate borrower. The principal role of a receiver, once appointed, is to obtain satisfaction of the<br />

debt due to the appointing creditor. A summary of the various types of receiver that could be appointed is<br />

outlined in the section “—Administration, Receivership, Insolvency and Bankruptcy Under English Law—<br />

Receivership”.<br />

Enforcement of Security Upon the Administration, Insolvency or Bankruptcy of Charging Entity<br />

Enforcement during English Administration Proceedings of Entity. The effect of the statutory moratorium<br />

in an English administration proceeding of a company from the lender’s perspective is that he is unable to<br />

enforce the security granted by such entity for the duration of the administration without the leave of the court or<br />

the consent of the administrator. This might compromise the interests of the secured creditor. For example, an<br />

administrator may decide that it is in the best interests of the creditors of the borrower to delay the sale of the<br />

secured assets. Also, the administrator will have the ability to sell property subject to security in favour of the<br />

creditors, but must account to the creditor for the proceeds. For more details, see “Administration, Receivership,<br />

Insolvency and Bankruptcy Under English Law—Administrations” below.<br />

Enforcement of Security during English Liquidation of Entity. When a winding up order has been made by<br />

the court in respect of an English company or a provisional liquidator has been appointed, no action or<br />

proceeding shall be proceeded with or commenced against the company or its property, except with leave of the<br />

court and subject to such terms as the court may impose. Specific court orders can be obtained to stay any<br />

actions or proceedings brought against the English company and its property. However, the rights of secured<br />

creditors are unaffected and they may still enforce their security rights, for example by the appointment of a<br />

receiver over specific property or assets of the company. See “Administration, Receivership, Insolvency and<br />

Bankruptcy Under English Law—Liquidation” below.<br />

Enforcement of Security during an English Bankruptcy of an Individual. If English bankruptcy proceedings<br />

are pending or an order has been made, the court may stay any action, execution or other legal process against<br />

the debtor/bankrupt. This does not prevent a secured creditor from enforcing his security provided that the<br />

official receiver may on notice inspect goods, in which case enforcement before the official receiver has had a<br />

reasonable opportunity to inspect the goods requires the leave of the court. See “Administration, Receivership,<br />

Insolvency and Bankruptcy Under English Law—Bankruptcy” below.<br />

188


Enforcement of Security in England Upon Foreign Insolvency. The English courts are required, subject to<br />

limited exceptions, to recognise and give effect to the opening, conduct and closure of “main” insolvency<br />

proceedings taking place in accordance with the EC Insolvency Regulation in another Member State, as well as<br />

judgments handed down in direct connection with such proceedings. Subject to important exceptions, including<br />

those specified below, (i) the law of the Member State in which insolvency proceedings are opened pursuant to<br />

the EC Insolvency Regulation is to be applied to those proceedings and is to determine their effect; and (ii) a<br />

“liquidator” (as that term is used in the EC Insolvency Regulation) appointed in main proceedings conducted in<br />

another Member State is empowered to remove any assets of the debtor company located in England and Wales.<br />

It is the apparent intention of the EC Insolvency Regulation that the application of these rules be<br />

circumscribed with respect to security interests, including fixed and floating charge security interests, over<br />

assets or rights located in England and Wales. In particular, the EC Insolvency Regulation provides that the<br />

opening of insolvency proceedings shall not affect the “rights in rem” of creditors or third parties in respect of<br />

tangible or intangible, or moveable or immoveable, assets (both specific assets and collections of indefinite<br />

assets as a whole which change from time to time) belonging to the debtor which are situated within the territory<br />

of another Member State at the time of the opening of the proceedings.<br />

Environmental Laws. Certain existing environmental legislation imposes liability for clean-up costs on the<br />

owner or occupier of land where the person who caused or knowingly permitted the pollution cannot be found.<br />

The term “owner” would include anyone with a proprietary interest in a property and as such could include a<br />

mortgagee. Even if more than one person may have been responsible for the contamination, each person<br />

covered by the relevant environmental laws may be held responsible for all the clean-up costs incurred.<br />

If any environmental liability were to exist in respect of a property or an obligor, a lender should not incur<br />

responsibility for such liability prior to enforcement of the related loan and security deed, unless it could be<br />

established that the lender had entered into possession of the affected property or could be said to be in control<br />

of the property. A lender who so enters into possession or controls a property is referred to as a “mortgagee in<br />

possession”. After enforcement, the lender, if deemed to be a mortgagee in possession, or a receiver appointed<br />

on behalf of the lender, could become responsible for environmental liabilities in respect of a property.<br />

However, HM Government has expressly refused to state that where a borrower has become insolvent, actions<br />

taken by a lender simply designed to preserve the property and to protect the general public should not be<br />

regarded as making the lender a “mortgagee in possession” and therefore potentially liable.<br />

If an environmental liability arises in relation to any property and is not remedied, or is not capable of being<br />

remedied, this may result in an inability to sell such property or in a reduction in the price obtained for such<br />

property, resulting in a sale at a loss. In addition, third parties may sue a current or previous owner, occupier or<br />

operator of a site for damages and costs resulting from substances emanating from that site, and the presence of<br />

substances on a property could result in personal-injury or similar claims by private plaintiffs.<br />

Compulsory Purchase. Any property in the United Kingdom may at any time be compulsorily acquired by,<br />

inter alia, a local or public authority or a governmental department, generally in connection with proposed<br />

redevelopment or infrastructure projects.<br />

However, if a compulsory purchase order is made in respect of a property (or part thereof), compensation<br />

would be payable on the basis of the market value of all of the related obligor’s and the tenants’ and/or<br />

landlord’s proprietary interests in that property at the time of the purchase. The risk to the lender is that the<br />

amount received from the proceeds of purchase of the freehold or leasehold estate may be less than the<br />

corresponding principal of the loan together with accrued interest to which the lender is entitled.<br />

A further consideration is that there is often a delay between the compulsory purchase of a property and the<br />

payment of compensation, which will largely depend upon the ability of the property owner and the entity<br />

acquiring the property to agree on the open market value of the property.<br />

Frustration. In exceptional circumstances, a tenancy could be frustrated under English law, with the result<br />

that the parties need not perform any obligation arising under the relevant agreement after the frustration has<br />

taken place. Frustration may occur where superseding events render the continuance or performance of the<br />

agreement illegal, impossible or radically different for a party thereto, so that it would be inequitable for such an<br />

agreement or agreements to continue.<br />

189


Leases<br />

Duration. Commercial leases of property in the United Kingdom are typically entered into for a fixed term,<br />

which is usually 10 to 15 years. Leases for residential tenancies tend to be of shorter duration, which is usually<br />

one or two years in length.<br />

Renewal Rights. In certain limited circumstances, in particular relating to the renewals of tenancies, a<br />

tenant of a property may have legal rights to require the relevant property owner to grant it a lease, for example<br />

pursuant to the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 or the Landlord and Tenant (Covenants) Act 1995. Should such<br />

a right arise, the relevant property owner may not have its normal freedom to negotiate the terms of the new<br />

lease with the tenant, such terms being imposed by the court or being the same as those under the previous<br />

tenancy of the relevant premises. Accordingly, whilst it is the general practice of the courts in renewals under<br />

the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 to grant a new lease on similar terms to the expiring lease, the basic annual<br />

rent will be adjusted in line with market rents at the relevant time and there can be no guarantee as to the terms<br />

on which any such new lease will be granted. A landlord may object to the grant of a new lease on a number of<br />

grounds including (a) if the property is required for redevelopment or for the landlord’s own use or (b) if the<br />

tenant is in breach of covenant, but in such circumstances the court will allow a tenant time to correct the<br />

default.<br />

Rent Adjustments during the Term of the Lease. Typically, the terms of most commercial leases in the<br />

United Kingdom provide for upwards-only rent reviews every 5 years, based on the open market value of the<br />

property as at the review date on the basis that the property is let on certain hypothetical terms (usually referred<br />

to as “assumptions” and “disregards”). Rents on residential tenancies are typically tied to the retail price index,<br />

and it is not uncommon to have a maximum increase for any period.<br />

Allocation of Charges; Liability for Repairs. Commercial space in the United Kingdom is typically let on<br />

full repairing and insuring (“FRI”) leases (see “Risk Factors—Loan Related Risks—Risks Relating to Tenants<br />

and Leases”). Such leases have the effect of transferring certain of the risks and expenses of property ownership<br />

(fluctuating repair bills, insurance premia, obsolescence etc.) to the tenant for the duration of the lease term. It<br />

is typical that tenants under residential leases are not responsible for such charges on the related property;<br />

however, depending upon the lease, the tenant may assume a level of responsibility with respect to the general<br />

upkeep of the property.<br />

Sub-Letting and Assignment. For leases granted after 1996, assignments of tenants’ leasehold interests<br />

release the outgoing tenant from continuing liability for the remainder of the contractual term. To protect<br />

against the risk that succeeding tenants would not be of equal standing to the original tenant, the provisions of a<br />

commercial lease relating to assignment of the lease by the tenant can be drafted so that assignment can be made<br />

only with the landlord’s consent. In addition, lease conditions can include provisions ensuring that any new<br />

tenant is of an appropriate financial strength, or is appropriately guaranteed, and that there is an “automatic”<br />

guarantee by the outgoing tenant of the obligations of the new tenant.<br />

The Landlord and Tenant (Covenants) Act 1995 (the “Covenants Act”) provides that, in relation to leases<br />

of property in England and Wales granted after 1 January 1996 (other than leases granted after that date<br />

pursuant to agreements for lease entered into before that date) (“New Tenancies”), if an original tenant under<br />

such a lease assigns that lease (having obtained all necessary consents (including consent of the landlord if<br />

required by the lease)), that original tenant’s liability to the landlord, under the terms of the lease, ceases. The<br />

Covenants Act provides, however, that arrangements can be entered into whereby on assignment of a lease of<br />

residential or commercial property, the original tenant can be required under the terms of its lease to enter into<br />

an “authorised guarantee agreement” in respect of the assignee’s obligations to the landlord. Such an authorised<br />

guarantee agreement relates only to the obligations under the lease of the assignee of the previous tenant and not<br />

any subsequent assignees of the assignee. The same principles apply to the assignee if it assigns the lease.<br />

However, because the Covenants Act has no retrospective effect, the original tenant under a lease entered<br />

into before 1 January, 1996 will remain liable under that lease notwithstanding any subsequent assignments,<br />

subject to any express releases of the tenant’s covenant on assignment. In such circumstances the first and every<br />

subsequent assignee would normally covenant with his predecessor to pay the rent and observe the covenants in<br />

the tenancy and would give an appropriate indemnity in respect of those liabilities to his predecessor in title,<br />

thus creating a “chain of indemnity”. If the chain of indemnity breaks down, however, the landlord remains able<br />

to seek payment from the original tenant.<br />

190


Under Section 6 of the Law of Distress Amendment Act 1908, the rents under a sublease may be diverted to<br />

a superior landlord by a notice if the tenant under the headlease fails to pay the rent. It may also be diverted<br />

voluntarily by the sub-tenant in accordance with Section 21 of that Act. However, the amount of rent payable<br />

under headleases is nominal by comparison to the amount of rent payable by the Tenants. Any such superior<br />

landlord may only retain the amount of rent payable under the relevant headlease and not all of the rent payable<br />

by the Tenants.<br />

Set-Off Rights. Tenants under leases have the right to set off obligations under such leases against<br />

obligations owed to them by the landlord. Under English law, save in the context of insolvency, it may be<br />

possible to exclude the right for a tenant to set off claims. However, in a liquidation a mandatory statutory setoff<br />

is applied to all mutual credits, mutual debts or other mutual dealings.<br />

Landlords’ Remedies. Landlords can usually terminate leases through provisions that allow them to reenter<br />

premises on the tenant’s insolvency or if there is any breach of the tenant’s covenants in the lease.<br />

Termination is intended to allow landlords to re-let the premises to a new tenant and it is therefore important<br />

that this remedy remains available. Nevertheless, the courts have the discretion to reinstate the lease if the<br />

tenant remedies any default. In addition, if the tenant enters administration or is a small company for the<br />

purposes of the company voluntary arrangement with moratorium procedure under the Insolvency Act 1986, a<br />

landlord is not able to exercise its right of termination during any moratorium which then applies. See “—<br />

Administration, Receivership, Insolvency and Bankruptcy Under English Law” below.<br />

Planning and Other Regulations Affecting the Properties. The Properties are subject to compliance with<br />

various local planning rules and regulations. Failure to so comply (together with an inability to remedy such<br />

failure) could result in a material diminution in the value of a property which could, together with the limited<br />

alternative uses for such property, result in a failure to realise the full principal amount of the related loan. Any<br />

failure to comply with such planning and other rules and regulations, however, would likely result in a loan<br />

event of default by the borrowers under the related mortgage, enabling the servicer or special servicer, as<br />

applicable, to pursue remedies available by law or under such mortgage.<br />

Default Interest, Prepayment Charges and Prepayments. English law generally limits the ability of<br />

creditors to charge default interest on late payments. The courts have in a series of cases laid down the principle<br />

that any such late charges are void to the extent they constitute penalties. To establish that a particular payment<br />

is not a penalty, it is generally required that the relevant creditor demonstrate that the payment is a fair measure<br />

of the creditor’s expected commercial loss arising as a result of the late payment.<br />

Additionally, charges associated with prepayments of secured debts can fall foul of the equitable principle<br />

which prohibits “clogs” on a borrower’s equity of redemption. This is a long-established principle of law which<br />

prohibits lenders from preventing borrowers from discharging their debts and obtaining releases of their<br />

security. Again, secured lenders who can demonstrate that any charges associated with prepayments are<br />

intended to compensate the lender for costs associated with the prepayment, such as broken funding or hedge<br />

termination, will generally avoid having these payments treated as “clogs”.<br />

Administration, Receivership, Insolvency and Bankruptcy Under English Law. The insolvency laws of the<br />

United Kingdom are primarily contained in the Insolvency Act 1986 (the “Insolvency Act”) as (principally)<br />

amended by the IA 2000 and Enterprise Act, and the Insolvency Rules 1986, as amended. The Insolvency Act<br />

and the Insolvency Rules provide for and prescribe the various processes by which insolvency proceedings may<br />

be commenced in relation to a company or other legal person and its assets. For example, they provide for a<br />

company to be liquidated (or wound up) on a voluntary basis by a resolution of its members, or on an<br />

involuntary basis by the court; they regulate the circumstances in which and the procedures applicable to a<br />

company seeking protection from its creditors through administration or a company voluntary arrangement; they<br />

provide a framework for managing the bankruptcy of individuals; limit and regulate the powers of enforcement<br />

of security by creditors; they provide for the procedures to be followed during an insolvency proceeding,<br />

regulate the activities of the appointed officeholders and provide for the order of distribution of assets to<br />

creditors and members on an insolvency; they allow appointed insolvency officeholders to seek to set aside<br />

certain transactions (including the creation of security) made by companies in prescribed periods prior to the<br />

commencement of the relevant insolvency proceeding.<br />

The principal tests for insolvency under English law are set out in Section 123 of the Insolvency Act. These<br />

are colloquially referred to as the “cash flow test” and the “balance sheet test”. In summary, either the debtor<br />

must be unable to pay his debts as they fall due (the “cash flow test”), demonstrated, for example, by an<br />

unsatisfied “statutory demand”—that is, a written demand for payment of a debt in excess of £750 unpaid after 3<br />

191


weeks. Alternatively, the court has to be satisfied that a company’s liabilities exceed its assets, taking into<br />

account its contingent and prospective liabilities (the “balance sheet test”). The principal grounds upon which<br />

an individual may be made bankrupt are set out in Sections 267, 268 and 272 of the Insolvency Act.<br />

Insolvency proceedings that may arise in relation to a corporate entity and which are subject to the<br />

provisions of the Insolvency Act and Insolvency Rules include: Administration; Receivership; Liquidation and<br />

Company Voluntary Arrangements. Insolvency proceedings that may arise in relation to an individual include<br />

Bankruptcy and Individual Voluntary Arrangements. These processes are described in summary below.<br />

Administrations. Administration is seen as a procedure to allow financially troubled companies to obtain<br />

protection from their creditors for a period while they attempt to restructure their obligations. The Enterprise<br />

Act, which came into effect in 2003, made significant changes to the administration regime, making it possible<br />

for an administrator to be appointed out of court, by simple notice, and prohibiting the appointment of an<br />

administrative receiver in respect of many floating charges created after 15 September 2003. As a direct<br />

consequence of the Enterprise Act (and save in respect of pre-15 September 2003 floating charges and certain<br />

corporate financing situations), secured creditors that may have previously appointed administrative receivers in<br />

respect of a company and its undertaking are now more likely to pursue an administration of a company as a<br />

means of enforcing their security rights.<br />

An administrator may be appointed by the court on the application of the company, its directors and/or one<br />

or more creditors. Administration proceedings may also be initiated out of court by the holder of a qualifying<br />

floating charge or by the company or its directors. In each case, the company must be or be likely to become<br />

insolvent, unless the appointment is made at the instigation of a floating charge holder and the power to appoint<br />

under the charging document has accrued.<br />

Upon an application to court for an administration order in respect of a company or upon a notice of<br />

intention to appoint an administrator being filed with the court, a statutory moratorium is triggered; the only<br />

steps that may be taken against the company without the consent of the court are: the appointment of an<br />

administrative receiver (where that is still permitted) and the performance of his functions; certain winding up<br />

petitions; and the appointment of an administrator by a qualifying floating charge holder (where that is not the<br />

event that has not triggered the interim moratorium). Once the company is in administration all creditors are<br />

prohibited from enforcing their rights against the debtor without the consent of the administrator or the court.<br />

The basic general effect of the statutory moratorium is that no winding-up procedures may be commenced in<br />

relation to the relevant company, no security interests may be enforced in respect of the company’s property, no<br />

administrative receiver may be appointed and no other legal process may be taken in relation to that company<br />

during such period.<br />

An administrator must be a licensed insolvency practitioner, and is under a duty to act in the best interests<br />

of all creditors of the borrower (not just the secured creditors), and is an officer of the court. An administrator<br />

will be appointed by the court if it is satisfied that company is or is likely to become insolvent (as described<br />

above) and the court believes that the administration order is reasonably likely to achieve the statutory purpose<br />

of administration (as set out in the Insolvency Act). The principal objective is to rescue the company as a going<br />

concern. If this rescue is not reasonably practicable, the administrator must consider how to achieve a better<br />

result for the company’s creditors as a whole (preferential, secured, and unsecured creditors) than would be<br />

likely if the company were wound up. If that objective is not achievable then the administrator is required to<br />

realise the company’s property with a view to distributing the proceeds to the secured, preferential and<br />

unsecured creditors of the company in the same way as a liquidator of a company.<br />

The administrator is authorised to take over management of the company from the directors. Within eight<br />

weeks of his appointment, the administrator must prepare a statement setting out proposals on how the purpose<br />

of administration is to be achieved and put them to a creditors’ meeting. The administrator’s proposals must be<br />

approved by a majority of the creditors at the meeting or the court may provide that the appointment of the<br />

administrator will be discharged. An administrator’s appointment automatically terminates at the end of 12<br />

months following his appointment, unless terminated sooner or extended pursuant to the relevant procedures set<br />

out in the Insolvency Act.<br />

Administrators are given extensive statutory powers to challenge certain transactions made in prescribed<br />

periods prior to the insolvency of the company and the power to manage and sell assets of the debtor company.<br />

The administrator can apply to the court to sell property subject to security in favour of creditors, but must<br />

account to the creditor for the proceeds (note the sale must be on market terms but may be for less than the<br />

secured amount). Where the property in question is subject to a floating charge, the secured creditor will have<br />

192


the same priority in respect of any property of the company directly or indirectly representing the property being<br />

disposed of as he would have had in respect of the property subject to the floating charge. Where the security in<br />

question is other than a floating charge, it shall be a condition of the secured creditor’s consent or leave of the<br />

court that the net proceeds of the disposal shall be applied towards discharging the sums secured by the security.<br />

The administrator is nevertheless bound by the priority of the security granted under the security deed.<br />

The costs and expenses of the administration are payable out of the company’s realised assets in priority to<br />

payments to floating chargeholders, unlike in a liquidation where preferential creditors and floating<br />

chargeholders are paid in priority to the costs and expenses of the liquidation.<br />

The Enterprise Act has also introduced the concept of the ‘prescribed part’ (an obligation on the<br />

administrator of a company that has created a floating charge over its assets, to hold aside a portion of the<br />

proceeds of realisation of such floating security for the satisfaction of unsecured debts in priority to the claims<br />

of the floating charge holder) which is outlined in more detail in the section headed “— Liquidation” below.<br />

Receivership. A distinction is drawn between the various types of receiver that exist under English law. A<br />

receiver appointed to enforce a fixed charge over real property granted by a company or an individual is usually<br />

appointed under the provisions of the Law of Property Act 1925 (“LPA”) and derives his powers from both the<br />

LPA and the charge instrument. An LPA receiver’s powers are limited under statute to the powers to demand,<br />

recover and receive the income of property over which they have been appointed receiver, but such powers are<br />

usually extended by the charge instrument and typically include the express power to take possession of the<br />

charged assets. Alternatively receivers may be appointed in respect of other fixed charge assets, their rights and<br />

powers deriving from the charge instrument.<br />

Conversely, where a receiver is appointed over the whole or substantially the whole of a company’s<br />

property by a secured lender under a charge which, as created, was a floating charge, or under such a charge and<br />

one or more other securities, the receiver is known as an “administrative receiver”, and has extensive powers<br />

under the Insolvency Act 1986, including the power to take possession of all charged assets and run the business<br />

of the company. It should be noted that as a result of the Enterprise Act, save in respect of certain specialised<br />

corporate financing situations (including a number of typical asset-backed securitisation structures), holders of<br />

floating charges created after 15 September 2003 are no longer able to appoint administrative receivers, and<br />

instead must enforce their security rights through an administration of the chargor.<br />

Administrative receivers often require an indemnity to meet their costs and expenses (notwithstanding the<br />

statutory indemnity to which they are entitled under the Insolvency Act 1986) as a condition of their<br />

appointment or continued appointment, although in the case of lending secured on real property, the receiver<br />

may be content with the statutory position. Such an indemnity would rank ahead of payments on the lending.<br />

A receiver is deemed by law to be the agent of the mortgagor or chargor until the commencement of<br />

liquidation proceedings against such entity, at which point he becomes the agent of the appointing secured<br />

creditor. If a liquidator is appointed in respect of a chargor when a receiver is still in office, the receiver may<br />

still continue to realise the assets the subject of the security and the liquidator will usually “stand aside” and<br />

allow the receiver to finish his enforcement process in respect of the charged assets.<br />

Where the lender believes that a chargor is diligently taking all appropriate steps to make good any breach<br />

under a loan or charge instrument, and the security granted in respect of lending is not prejudiced, or where the<br />

lender does not believe it would be in the interests of the noteholders to do so, the lender may decline or defer<br />

appointment of any receiver.<br />

In cases where a property is lawfully occupied by third parties pursuant to leasehold interests granted by the<br />

related owner of the property, the receiver’s right to possession would be exercised by directing the tenants to<br />

pay rent to the lender. However, in the event that receiver takes possession of a property, it may be liable in<br />

respect of claims that are typically made against the owner of the property.<br />

Receivers will generally choose to sell the property the subject of the security interest. This is normally<br />

conducted as a private transaction through sales agents appointed by the receiver. Alternatively the receiver<br />

may choose to manage and operate the asset itself for a period of time. Receivers may have powers to borrow<br />

funds to operate the property (which are treated as an expense of the receivership and so rank ahead of the<br />

secured debt) or re-let or redevelop the property.<br />

193


Liquidation. A company can be wound up at the instigation of the company itself, its members or<br />

contributories, its directors, its creditors or certain overseas liquidators. Voluntary winding-up proceedings are<br />

initiated when the company in general meeting passes a resolution to that effect. If the directors make a<br />

declaration that the company will be able to pay its debts within 12 months the proceedings take effect as a<br />

members’ voluntary winding up. If they are unable to make such a declaration the proceedings take effect as a<br />

creditors’ voluntary winding up. A members’ winding-up is voluntary and generally relates to cessations of a<br />

solvent business. A creditors’ voluntary winding up requires proof of the company’s inability to pay its debts<br />

(as outlined above). Involuntary winding up proceedings are by court order at the instigation of the company,<br />

its creditors, directors, contributories or a previously appointed administrator or administrative receiver. The<br />

inability of a company to pay its debts is one of several grounds upon which a winding up order may be<br />

obtained from the Court. For example, an order may be made if the court considers it just and equitable to wind<br />

up the company.<br />

A liquidator (a licensed insolvency practitioner) appointed to an insolvent company will examine the<br />

validity and priority of all claims and is required by the Insolvency Act to distribute the assets of the company<br />

over which he is appointed in accordance with a statutory order of priority. This priority recognises the rights of<br />

secured creditors subject to the matters described above, and does not override or prevent the appointment of a<br />

receiver to realise secured assets on behalf of a secured creditor. It should be noted that, following a recent<br />

House of Lords judgment, the costs and expenses of a liquidation will rank after sums payable to both<br />

preferential creditors and to holders of floating charges and will not be payable ahead of the floating charge<br />

security.<br />

When a winding up order has been made by the Court in respect of a company or a provisional liquidator<br />

has been appointed, no action or proceeding may be proceeded with or commenced against the company or its<br />

property, except with leave of the court and subject to such terms as the court may impose. Specific court<br />

orders can be obtained to stay any actions or proceedings brought against a company and its property. However,<br />

the rights of secured creditors are unaffected and they may still enforce their security rights, for example by the<br />

appointment of a receiver over specific property or assets of the company.<br />

Liquidators are given extensive statutory powers to challenge certain transactions made in prescribed<br />

periods prior to the insolvency of the company, described in more detail in the section headed “—Challenges to<br />

Antecedent Transactions on Insolvency” below.<br />

In addition, section 176A of the Insolvency Act provides that any liquidator (or administrator or receiver) of<br />

a company is required to make a “prescribed part” of the company’s “net property” available for the satisfaction<br />

of unsecured debts in priority to the claims of the floating charge holder. The company’s “net property” is<br />

defined as the amount of the chargor’s property which would be available for satisfaction of debts due to the<br />

holder(s) of any debentures secured by a floating charge and so refers to any floating charge realisations less any<br />

amounts payable to the preferential creditors or in respect of the expenses of the liquidation (to the extent<br />

deductible in priority to floating chargeholder claims) or administration. The “prescribed part” is defined in the<br />

Insolvency Act 1986 (Prescribed Part) Order 2003 to be an amount equal to 50 per cent. of the first £10,000 of<br />

floating charge realisations plus 20 per cent. of the floating charge realisations thereafter, provided that such<br />

“prescribed part” may not exceed £600,000.<br />

This obligation does not apply if the net property value is less than a prescribed minimum and the relevant<br />

officeholder is of the view that the cost of making a distribution to unsecured creditors would be<br />

disproportionate to the benefits. The relevant officeholder may also apply to court for an order that the<br />

provisions of section 176A of the Insolvency Act should not apply on the basis that the cost of making a<br />

distribution would be disproportionate to the benefits. With respect to situations where there is more than one<br />

borrower, this amount can become material.<br />

Bankruptcy<br />

Bankruptcy is a proceeding relating to the insolvency of an individual. On the application of a creditor in<br />

respect of a debt in excess of £750 that the debtor is apparently unable to pay, the court may make a bankruptcy<br />

order. A debtor is considered to be unable to pay the debt or debts in question if a statutory demand has not<br />

been met within three weeks, or if execution is returned unsatisfied in whole or in part.<br />

A debtor may also be made bankrupt on his own petition. An order may be made if the debtor is unable to<br />

pay his debts; this is not defined for the purposes of bankruptcy but is considered to mean that the debtor is<br />

unable to pay debts as they fall due.<br />

194


The bankrupt’s estate is comprised of all the property owned by the bankrupt at the date of the bankruptcy,<br />

subject to certain exemptions, plus any other property that the Insolvency Act deems to comprise part of it. A<br />

trustee in bankruptcy may be appointed to the bankrupt’s estate. Otherwise, the official receiver acts as trustee.<br />

The trustee’s duty is to get in, realise and distribute the estate in accordance with the Insolvency Act. The order<br />

of distribution, and its effect on secured creditors, are similar to a corporate liquidation, as described above.<br />

If bankruptcy proceedings are pending or an order has been made, the court may stay any action, execution<br />

or other legal process against the debtor/bankrupt. This does not prevent a secured creditor from enforcing his<br />

security provided that the official receiver may on notice inspect goods, in which case enforcement before the<br />

official receiver has had a reasonable opportunity to inspect the goods requires the leave of the court.<br />

A bankrupt is generally discharged one year after the making of the bankruptcy order. The bankrupt is<br />

discharged from the bankruptcy debts, although the trustee will continue to perform his functions. Discharge<br />

does not affect the right of a secured creditor to enforce security.<br />

Trustees in bankruptcy are given extensive statutory powers to challenge and set aside certain transactions<br />

made in prescribed periods prior to the bankruptcy; these are described in more detail below.<br />

Individual Voluntary Arrangements. Under Part VIII of the Insolvency Act an individual debtor may make<br />

a proposal to his creditors for a composition in satisfaction of his debts or a scheme of arrangement of his<br />

affairs. This may take place under the protection of a moratorium granted by the court. The proposal will be<br />

considered at a meeting of creditors, which may approve the proposal by resolution passed by a majority in<br />

excess of three quarters by value.<br />

Challenges to Antecedent Transactions on Insolvency. English law allows trustees in bankruptcy,<br />

liquidators and administrators to apply to court for an order setting aside certain types of transactions entered<br />

into by the debtor in respect of which they are appointed. The affected transaction can include sales and<br />

purchases of assets, financings and grants of security. The general aim of these measures is to prevent debtors,<br />

companies and their directors and shareholders from arranging the affairs of the company or debtor so as to<br />

favour particular creditors or third parties to the prejudice of other creditors.<br />

In particular, the following orders may be sought:<br />

(a) Setting aside transactions at an undervalue. Such a challenge may be pursued where the debtor<br />

receives either no consideration or consideration which in money’s worth is significantly less than that<br />

provided by the debtor in respect of a transaction that occurred within a specified period ending with<br />

the date on which the insolvency proceeding commenced. Except in the case of an individual bankrupt<br />

entering into a transaction at an undervalue at a time less than two years before the presentation of the<br />

bankruptcy petition on which the individual is adjudged bankrupt, the debtor must have been insolvent<br />

at the time of the transaction or became insolvent as a result, although insolvency will be presumed if<br />

the parties to the transaction were connected.<br />

(b) Setting aside transactions which prefer one or more creditors of the debtor over others. Where a debtor<br />

has at the relevant time done anything which puts one or more of its creditors in a better position on the<br />

insolvent liquidation or bankruptcy of the debtor than it would have been had the act not been done, a<br />

preference is deemed to have been given. The debtor must have been influenced by a desire to improve<br />

the position of the relevant creditor in respect of such transaction and the transaction must have taken<br />

place in the six months (or if the parties are connected, 2 years) prior to the commencement of the<br />

insolvency proceeding. Again the transaction can be set aside only if the debtor was insolvent at the<br />

time of the transaction or became insolvent as a consequence.<br />

(c) Disclaiming certain onerous property. Any unprofitable contract or any other property of the debtor<br />

which is unsaleable or not readily saleable or may give rise to a liability to pay money or perform any<br />

other onerous act may be disclaimed by a liquidator or trustee, giving rise to a claim in damages only<br />

against the company.<br />

(d) Declaring certain floating charges invalid. A floating charge created within 12 months (or 2 years in<br />

the case of connected parties) prior to the commencement of the relevant insolvency proceeding may<br />

be declared invalid, except to the extent of any new consideration provided in respect of the charge.<br />

Again the debtor must have been insolvent at the time of or became insolvent as a result of the<br />

195


transaction that included the creation of the floating charge (although insolvency is presumed if the<br />

parties to the transaction are connected).<br />

(e) Setting aside transactions defrauding creditors. At any time prior to the relevant insolvency<br />

proceeding, a transaction at an undervalue can be challenged if its substantial purpose was either to put<br />

assets of the company beyond the reach of creditors or otherwise prejudice their interests. Proof of<br />

insolvency at the time of the transaction is not required.<br />

Company Voluntary Arrangements. A company voluntary arrangement under Part I of the Insolvency Act<br />

1986 is a formal procedure which enables a company to agree with its creditors a composition in satisfaction of<br />

its debts or a scheme of arrangement of its affairs which can determine how its debts should be paid and in what<br />

proportions. It requires the approval of a majority in excess of 75 per cent. in value of the company’s creditors<br />

present in person or by proxy and voting at a meeting on the resolution to approve the arrangement. If a<br />

company voluntary arrangement is approved, it binds all creditors of the company who were entitled to vote at<br />

the meeting (whether or not they were present or represented at it) or would have been so entitled had they<br />

received notice of the meeting.<br />

If a borrowing company falls within the definition of a “small company” under the Companies Act 1985<br />

and Insolvency Act 1986, a moratorium may be obtained to hold creditors in abeyance whilst the terms of an<br />

arrangement are negotiated and agreed between the company and its creditors. The moratorium has the same<br />

affect on the rights of creditors to enforce their security rights as outlined in the section headed<br />

‘Administrations’ above.<br />

A moratorium may be imposed for a period of up to 28 days, with the option for creditors to extend this<br />

protection for up to a further two months (although the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry may, by<br />

secondary legislation, extend or decrease the duration of each period). This may be relevant both in the context<br />

of a borrower or significant concentrations of tenants that may fall within the definition of “small company”.<br />

The reason is that the moratorium applicable to small companies could result in delays in receipt of payments by<br />

the borrower and/or prevent a borrower landlord re-entering and taking possession of a property upon nonpayment<br />

of rent.<br />

Borrowers Formed in Foreign Jurisdictions. Where an insolvent company has its centre of main interests<br />

(“COMI”) in the <strong>Europe</strong>an Union, the jurisdiction of the English courts to make winding-up or administration<br />

orders with respect to that company is governed exclusively by the EC Regulation on Insolvency Proceedings<br />

2000. This is so regardless of whether the company is incorporated in the <strong>Europe</strong>an Union. The EC Regulation<br />

also applies to company voluntary arrangements, but has no application to administrative receiverships.<br />

The EC Regulation applies only to proceedings where the debtor’s COMI is located in the <strong>Europe</strong>an Union<br />

and it recites that the debtor’s COMI should correspond to the place where it conducts the administration of its<br />

interests on a regular basis and provides that, in the case of a company, the place of its registered office shall be<br />

presumed to be its COMI in the absence of proof to the contrary.<br />

The EC Regulation confers jurisdiction on the English courts to open “main” insolvency proceedings,<br />

including winding-up and administration proceedings, in respect of a company (including a foreign company)<br />

having its COMI in England and Wales. Pursuant to the EC Regulation, “main” insolvency proceedings are<br />

intended to encompass the debtor’s assets on a worldwide basis and to affect all creditors, wherever located,<br />

subject as described below. Where the debtor has an “establishment” in a Member State, “territorial”<br />

proceedings may be opened in that State, which are “secondary” proceedings (and winding up proceedings only)<br />

where “main” proceedings have already been opened in another Member State.<br />

The English courts have, in certain circumstances, jurisdiction to make a winding-up order in respect of an<br />

insolvent foreign company that does not have its COMI in the <strong>Europe</strong>an Union (so that the Regulation does not<br />

apply). For example, the English courts may make a winding-up order in respect of an insolvent “unregistered<br />

company” being a company not incorporated in England and Wales, pursuant to Part V of the Insolvency Act.<br />

The English High Court has identified three core requirements that must be fulfilled in order for the English<br />

courts to make a winding-up order in respect of an unregistered company, namely that (i) there must be<br />

sufficient connection with England and Wales which may, but does not necessarily have to, consist of assets<br />

within England and Wales; (ii) there must be a reasonable possibility, if a winding-up order is made, of benefit<br />

to those applying for the order; and (iii) one or more persons interested in the distribution of assets of the<br />

company in question must be persons over whom the courts can exercise jurisdiction. In addition, the law in<br />

England and Wales is unclear as to whether an administrative receiver may be appointed to a company that is<br />

196


incorporated overseas. As regards security granted by the Issuer incorporated overseas, while such an<br />

appointment ought to be possible, no assurance can be given that the English courts would uphold the<br />

appointment of an administrative receiver thereto if the appointment were challenged.<br />

By contrast, save in limited circumstances (including those mentioned below), the English courts do not<br />

have jurisdiction to make an administration order in respect of an insolvent foreign company that does not have<br />

its COMI in the <strong>Europe</strong>an Union, as such a company does not fall within the definition of “company” for the<br />

purposes of Schedule B1 to the Insolvency Act. Similarly, such a company may not be subject to a company<br />

voluntary arrangement under Part I of the Insolvency Act, because it does not fall within the definition of<br />

“company” for these purposes.<br />

However, under Section 426 of the Insolvency Act, the English courts may elect to exercise the powers and<br />

discretions they have with respect to an insolvent company incorporated in England and Wales in respect of a<br />

foreign company, provided that they receive a request for assistance from the courts of a “relevant country or<br />

territory” having jurisdiction over the foreign company. (For the purposes of Section 426, a “relevant country or<br />

territory” means any of the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man, or any country or territory designated as such by<br />

the Secretary of State.)<br />

Foreign Companies and Security. The English courts are required, subject to limited exceptions, to<br />

recognise and give effect to the opening, conduct and closure of “main” insolvency proceedings taking place in<br />

accordance with the EC Regulation in another Member State, as well as judgments handed down in direct<br />

connection with such proceedings. Subject to important exceptions, including those specified below, (i) the law<br />

of the Member State in which insolvency proceedings are opened pursuant to the EC Regulation is to be applied<br />

to those proceedings and is to determine their effect; and (ii) a “liquidator” (as that term is used in the EC<br />

Regulation) appointed in main proceedings conducted in another Member State is empowered to remove any<br />

assets of the debtor company located in England and Wales.<br />

It is the apparent intention of the EC Regulation that the application of these rules be circumscribed with<br />

respect to security interests, including fixed and floating charge security interests, over assets or rights located in<br />

England and Wales. In particular, the EC Regulation provides that the opening of insolvency proceedings shall<br />

not affect the “rights in rem” of creditors or third parties in respect of tangible or intangible, or moveable or<br />

immoveable, assets (both specific assets and collections of indefinite assets as a whole which change from time<br />

to time) belonging to the debtor which are situated within the territory of another Member State at the time of<br />

the opening of the proceedings.<br />

Certain Matters of Scots Law<br />

The following is an outline of certain aspects of Scots law and practice relevant to lending on a secured<br />

basis over certain property and assets in Scotland and to security for loans so far as constituted over such<br />

property and assets. This is not a complete summary of currently applicable Scots law or practice, and should<br />

not be treated as a substitute for professional advice. Prospective Noteholders who are in any doubt as to any<br />

matter described in this Offering Circular should consult their own professional advisers.<br />

Security Under Scots Law<br />

Standard Securities<br />

A standard security is the only means of creating a fixed charge over heritable or long leasehold property<br />

(i.e. land and buildings) in Scotland. Its form must comply with the requirements of the Conveyancing and<br />

Feudal Reform (Scotland) Act 1970, which automatically imports a statutory set of “Standard Conditions” into<br />

all standard securities. The majority of these may be (and very frequently are) varied by agreement between the<br />

parties, other than those relating to redemption and enforcement.<br />

While title to all land in Scotland is registered there are currently two possible forms of registration, namely<br />

the Land Registrar and the Sasine Register. A heritable creditor (i.e. the grantee of a standard security) must<br />

register its standard security in the Land Register or the Sasine Register (in accordance with the registration of<br />

the title to the secured property) in order to perfect its security and secure priority over any subsequent standard<br />

security. Until such registration occurs, a standard security will not be effective against a subsequent purchaser<br />

or the heritable creditor under another standard security over the property. Priority of standard securities is<br />

(subject to express agreement to the contrary between the security holders) governed by their date of registration<br />

197


ather than their date of execution. There is no equivalent in Scotland to the priority period system which<br />

operates in relation to registered land in England and Wales.<br />

Standard securities created by companies incorporated in Scotland or England (or by a foreign incorporated<br />

company having a place of business in Scotland) must in addition be registered at the Companies Registry, and<br />

failure to do so will result in the security being unenforceable against a liquidator, administrator or creditor of<br />

the grantor company.<br />

Security over Rent<br />

Fixed security may be created over the rents payable under any lease or sub-lease of a property in Scotland<br />

by means of an assignation in security (a “Rent Assignation”). Rent Assignations will not take effect until<br />

formal notification thereof (“intimation”) is made to the tenant under the relevant lease or sub-lease. Priority as<br />

between competing Rent Assignations is determined by their date of intimation rather than their date of<br />

execution.<br />

The requirements noted above under “—Standard Securities” in relation to registration in the Companies<br />

Registry apply equally to Rent Assignations.<br />

Floating Charge<br />

Under Scots law, a floating charge may be granted by any incorporated company or <strong>Limited</strong> Liability<br />

Partnership (but not by an individual or any other category of partnership) over all or any specified existing and<br />

future assets. In general, the features of and limitations on floating charges noted under “—Certain Matters of<br />

English Law—Floating Charge” in relation to English law apply equally in Scotland, except that under Scots<br />

law a floating charge will only crystallise on the appointment of a receiver thereunder or on the winding-up of<br />

the relevant chargor.<br />

Limitations on taking Security<br />

Registration. A fixed charge over property in Scotland created by a company incorporated in Scotland or<br />

England (or a foreign-incorporated company which has a place of business in Scotland) which has been<br />

registered at the Companies Registry within 21 days of the creation of such charge and, if it is secured over land,<br />

at the Land Register or Sasine Register (as applicable) will take priority over subsequent fixed charges, any<br />

floating charges and all unsecured creditors, including preferred creditors and, in the event of a liquidation, will<br />

also take priority over the liquidator’s costs. The holder of a floating charge will take priority over unsecured<br />

creditors, but will rank behind all prior and subsequent fixed charges, the preferential creditors and the<br />

unsecured creditors’ fund (as described under “—Certain Matters of English Law—Floating Charge”). In<br />

addition, a floating charge which has been registered at Companies House within 21 days of its execution will<br />

take priority over subsequent floating charges and all unsecured creditors (other than preferential creditors and<br />

the unsecured creditors’ fund).<br />

As Scots law allows 21 days from the date of creation of a charge for it to be registered at Companies<br />

House, there always remains a possibility that at the time of creation of a charge a prior charge may be in<br />

existence which has not been registered (although in the case of a fixed charge over land such prior charge will<br />

be disclosed by the Land Register or (as applicable) Sasine Register). If such a prior unregistered charge is<br />

registered at Companies House within its 21-day period it will take priority over the subsequent charge even if<br />

the subsequent charge has been registered first.<br />

Intimation. As noted above under “—Security over Rent” the relative priority of competing Rent<br />

Assignations will be determined by reference to the date on which intimation is given to the relevant tenant.<br />

Hence a Rent Assignation which has been intimated to the relevant tenant will take priority over another Rent<br />

Assignation which has not been intimated even if the non-intimated Rent Assignation was executed prior to the<br />

intimated one.<br />

Set-off. In addition to the above, Rent Assignations are subject to rights of set-off between the relevant<br />

tenant and the Assignor. Although intimation of the Rent Assignation to the relevant tenant stops most new<br />

rights of set-off from accruing, rights of set-off which came into existence prior to intimation being made will<br />

take effective priority over the interests of the assignee. In addition, certain rights of set-off which are<br />

fundamental to the lease or sub-lease between the tenant and the assignor will continue to accrue even after<br />

intimation has been made.<br />

198


Right of redemption. Under Section 11 of the Land Tenure Reform (Scotland) Act 1974, the granter of any<br />

standard security has an absolute right, on giving appropriate notice, to redeem that standard security once it has<br />

subsisted for a period of twenty years, subject only to the payment of the sums specified in that Section. These<br />

consist essentially of the principal monies advanced by the lender, interest thereon and expenses incurred by the<br />

lender in relation to that standard security.<br />

Enforcement of Security<br />

Standard Securities<br />

A standard security can only be enforced in accordance with the procedures prescribed by the<br />

Conveyancing and Feudal Reform (Scotland) Act 1970. These must be initiated by service on the granter of the<br />

standard security of a specified form of notice and/or (depending upon the circumstances) by direct court<br />

application. The heritable creditor can then have resort to four principal remedies:<br />

Sale. The heritable credit may sell the secured property, subject to various duties to ensure that the sale<br />

price is the best that can reasonably be obtained. The proceeds of sale will then be applied in satisfaction of the<br />

secured obligations.<br />

Entry into possession. The heritable creditor may enter into possession of the secured property (including<br />

the collection of rents). If it does so, it does so in its own right and not as agent of the borrower, and so may be<br />

personally liable for mismanagement of the property and to third parties as occupier of the property.<br />

Leasing. The heritable creditor may grant leases of the secured property of up to seven years (or longer<br />

with permission of court).<br />

Foreclosure. The heritable creditor may, in the event that a sale cannot be achieved, foreclose on the<br />

property. Under this procedure the borrower’s title to the secured property is extinguished so that the heritable<br />

creditor becomes the owner of the property. This remedy is however rarely used in practice.<br />

In contrast to the position in England and Wales, a heritable creditor under a standard security (or the holder<br />

of any other fixed charge) has no power to appoint a receiver.<br />

Rent Assignations<br />

Since the effect of an intimated Rent Assignation is to transfer the relevant rents to the control of the<br />

assignee, on the establishment of a default by the assignor the assignee can apply the relevant rents in<br />

satisfaction of the secured liabilities without the necessary of further procedure.<br />

Floating Charges<br />

Under Scots law, the only method of enforcing a floating charge is by the appointment of a receiver over all<br />

(but not part only) of the assets over which the charge extends. The principal function of a receiver is to recover<br />

the debt due to the appointing chargor.<br />

Leases<br />

Duration. As noted under “—Certain Matters of English Law—Leases—Duration” above, commercial<br />

leases of property in the United Kingdom are typically entered into for a fixed term, which is usually ten to<br />

fifteen years.<br />

Renewal rights. Neither the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 nor the Landlord and Tenant (Covenants) Act<br />

1995 apply in Scotland and accordingly tenants of commercial properties in Scotland do not have the benefit of<br />

the rights of renewal described under “—Certain Matters of English Law—Leases—Renewal Rights” above.<br />

There are no equivalent statutory rights under Scots law in relation to tenants of commercial properties, save<br />

that, in the case of retail premises, the Tenancy of Shops (Scotland) Act 1949 entitles a tenant, whose tenancy<br />

has been terminated by notice, to apply to the court for an extension to its lease of up to one year (and, if such<br />

extension is granted, to apply for further renewals thereafter).<br />

Rent Adjustments during the Term of the Lease. As in the remainder of the United Kingdom, most<br />

commercial leases of property in Scotland provide for upwards-only rent reviews every five years.<br />

199


Allocation of Charges; Liability for Repairs. Again as in the remainder of the United Kingdom,<br />

commercial property in Scotland is typically let on FRI leases (see further “—Certain Matters of English Law—<br />

Leases—Allocation of Charges; Liability for Repairs”).<br />

Assignation: As noted above under “—Renewal rights”, the Covenants Act (as referred to in “Certain<br />

Matters of English Law—Leases—Sub-Letting and Assignment” above) does not apply in Scotland. Under Scots<br />

law, upon assignation of the tenant’s interest under a lease the liability of the assignor tenant to the landlord<br />

ceases, subject to any express contractual agreement to the contrary. It is not usual for a guarantee from the<br />

outgoing tenant to be obtained in Scotland, it being generally in the power of the landlord to withhold consent to<br />

the assignation if it is not satisfied with the covenant of the proposed assignee.<br />

Set-off Rights. The set-off rights of tenants under leases in Scotland are in general equivalent to those in<br />

England as described above under “—Certain Matters of English Law—Leases—Set-Off Rights”.<br />

Landlords’ Remedies. Leases of commercial property in Scotland generally contain provisions which allow<br />

the landlord to terminate (“irritate”) the lease on the tenant’s insolvency or if there is any breach of tenant’s<br />

obligations under the lease. Irritancy is intended to allow landlords to re-let the premises to a new tenant and it<br />

is therefore important that this remedy remains available. In order to invoke an irritancy the landlord must<br />

comply with the requirements of the Law Reform (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Scotland) Act 1985, which in the<br />

case of a tenant’s failure to pay rent requires the landlord to give the tenant at least fourteen days’ written notice<br />

requiring remedy of the default. In other cases the landlord may enforce the right of irritancy only if in all the<br />

circumstances of the case a “fair and reasonable landlord” would seek to do so and, if the breach is capable of<br />

being remedied, the tenant has been given a reasonable opportunity to do so. Beyond this the courts in Scotland<br />

have discretion to decline to enforce an irritancy if the landlord is acting oppressively, but the burden of proof is<br />

difficult for the tenant to overcome and it cannot do so if there has been any neglect or omission on its part.<br />

Frustration. Under the Scots law principal of rei interitus, a lease will (subject to express agreement to the<br />

contrary between the parties) automatically be terminated if the leased property is destroyed to the extent that it<br />

is no longer tenantable or if an event occurs which otherwise precludes the performance of the parties’ rights<br />

and obligations under the lease. In such circumstances the parties would not thereafter be required to perform<br />

any obligation arising under the lease.<br />

Certain Matters of Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law<br />

The following is an outline of certain aspects of Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law and practice relevant to lending on a<br />

secured basis over certain property and assets in Northern Ireland and to the security for the Libra Whole Loan<br />

so far as constituted over such property and assets. This is not a complete summary of currently applicable<br />

Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law of practice, and should not be treated as a substitute for professional advice. Prospective<br />

Noteholders who are in any doubt as to any matter described in this Offering Circular should consult their own<br />

professional advisers.<br />

Security Under Northern <strong>Irish</strong> Law<br />

Mortgages or Charges. Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law security over real property typically takes the form of fixed legal<br />

mortgage or fixed legal charge. Title to most property in Northern Ireland is either registered in the Registry of<br />

Deeds or the Land Registry of Northern Ireland. Legal mortgages and legal charges over real property in<br />

Northern Ireland created by Northern <strong>Irish</strong> companies (or a foreign incorporated company having a place of<br />

business in Northern Ireland) must be registered at Companies Registry and also at the Registry of Deeds and/or<br />

the Land Registry. Northern <strong>Irish</strong> legal mortgages and legal charges over real property held in Northern Ireland<br />

created by companies not incorporated in Northern Ireland must be registered in the Slavenburg Register,<br />

Companies Registry, Belfast and also at the Registry of Deeds and/or the Land Registry of Northern Ireland.<br />

Failure to register the legal mortgage or legal charge at either the Registry of Deeds or the Land Registry of<br />

Northern Ireland will result in the legal mortgage or legal charge being a mere equitable mortgage or charge<br />

over which subsequent legal mortgages or charges will take priority. Failure to register at the Companies<br />

Registry will result in the legal mortgage or legal charge being enforceable against a liquidator or administrator<br />

and any creditor of the mortgagor or chargor.<br />

Security over rent. Fixed security may be crated over the rents payable under any lease or sub-lease of a<br />

property in Northern Ireland by means of a separate assignment of rent. The requirements noted above under<br />

“Mortgages or Charges” in relation to registration in Companies Registry apply also to assignments of rent.<br />

Floating Charge. Under Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law, a floating charge may be granted by any incorporated company<br />

over all or any specified existing and future assets. In general, the features of and limitations on floating charges<br />

as described under “Certain Matters of English Law—Floating Charge” above in relation to English law apply<br />

equally in Northern Ireland.<br />

Limitations on Taking Security<br />

Registration. A fixed mortgage or charge over property in Northern Ireland created by a company<br />

incorporated in Northern Ireland (or a foreign incorporated company which has a place of business in Northern<br />

Ireland) which has been registered at the Companies Registry within 21 days of the creation of such mortgage or<br />

charge and, if it is secured over land, at the Registry of Deeds or at the Land Registry of Northern Ireland (as<br />

applicable) will take priority over subsequent fixed mortgages or charges, any floating charges and all unsecured<br />

creditors, including preferred creditors and, in the event of a liquidation, will also take priority over the<br />

liquidator’s costs. The holder of a floating charge will take priority over unsecured creditors, but will rank<br />

behind all prior and subsequent fixed charges, the preferential creditors and the unsecured creditors’ fund (as<br />

described under “Certain Matters of English Law—Floating Charge” above). In addition, a floating charge<br />

which has been registered at Companies Registry within 21 days of its execution will take priority over<br />

subsequent floating charges and all unsecured creditors (other than preferential creditors and the unsecured<br />

creditors’ fund).<br />

As Northern <strong>Irish</strong> law allows 21 days from the date of creation of a charge for it to be registered at<br />

Companies Registry, there always remains a possibility that at the time of creation of a charge a prior charge<br />

may be in existence which has not been registered (although in the case of a fixed charge over land such prior<br />

charge will be disclosed by the Registry of Deeds or the Land Registry of Northern Ireland (as applicable). If<br />

such a prior unregistered charge is registered at Companies Registry within its 21 day period it will take priority<br />

over the subsequent mortgage/charge even if the subsequent mortgage/charge has been registered first.<br />

Enforcement of Security<br />

Enforcement of Security Prior to Administration, Insolvency or Bankruptcy of Charging Entity. There are<br />

two principal methods of enforcing Northern <strong>Irish</strong> non-possessory security: orders of sale and receiverships.<br />

These methods are in general equivalent to those in England described above under “Certain Matters of English<br />

Law—Enforcement of Security—Enforcement of Security Prior to Administration, Insolvency or Bankruptcy of<br />

Charging Entity”.<br />

Enforcement of Security Upon the Administration, Insolvency or Bankruptcy of Charging Entity. The<br />

enforcement of security is in general equivalent to the enforcement in England described above under “Certain<br />

Matters of English Law—Enforcement of Security Upon the Administration, Insolvency or Bankruptcy of<br />

Charging Entity”.<br />

Compulsory Purchase: The enforcement of security is in general equivalent to the enforcement in England<br />

described above under “Certain Matters of English Law—Enforcement of Security Upon the Administration,<br />

Insolvency or Bankruptcy of Charging Entity”.<br />

Frustration: The enforcement of security is in general equivalent to the enforcement in England described<br />

above under “Certain Matters of English Law—Enforcement of Security Upon the Administration, Insolvency or<br />

Bankruptcy of Charging Entity”.<br />

Leases<br />

Duration. As described above under “Certain Matters of English Law—Leases—Duration”, commercial<br />

leases of property in the United Kingdom are typically entered into for a fixed term, which is usually ten to<br />

fifteen years.<br />

Renewal Rights<br />

In Northern Ireland commercial tenants have protection of security of tenure under The Business Tenancies<br />

(Northern Ireland) Order 1996.<br />

The central tenet of the legislation is to give business tenants in Northern Ireland a measure of security of<br />

tenure — if they want it. Unlike in England, in Northern Ireland, landlords cannot contract out of renewing<br />

business tenants’ tenancies.<br />

201


In simple terms this means that business tenancies, in Northern Ireland, do not come to an end by expiry<br />

and notwithstanding the contractual expiry they will continue on at the same rent and on the same terms unless<br />

brought to an end in accordance with the provisions of The Business Tenancies (Northern Ireland) Order 1996.<br />

If the landlord wishes to oppose the grant of a new tenancy he can only do so on certain specified grounds.<br />

There are 9 grounds in all. Some are discretionary in that even if a landlord can prove a ground exists this does<br />

not automatically mean that the tenant’s request for a new tenancy will be unsuccessful. Others are mandatory<br />

in that if they are proven the tenant will definitely not obtain a new tenancy. In some instances a tenant may<br />

even receive compensation.<br />

These rules only apply to tenancies which include business premises and are occupied by a tenant for the<br />

purpose of carrying on the business. As long as the business use is significant and not merely incidental<br />

protection will accrue.<br />

Rent Adjustments during the Term of the Leases. As in the remainder of the United Kingdom, most<br />

commercial leases of property in Northern Ireland provide for upwards-only rent reviews every five years.<br />

Allocation of Charges; Liability for Repairs. Again as in the remainder of the United Kingdom,<br />

commercial property in Northern Ireland is typically let on FRI leases (see above under “—Certain Matters of<br />

English Law—Leases—Allocation of Charges; Liability for Repairs”).<br />

Sub-Letting and Assignment. The Covenant Act (as referred to in “Certain Matters of English Law—<br />

Leases— Subletting and Assignment” above) does not apply to Northern Ireland. The current law in Northern<br />

Ireland is similar to that in England post 1 January 1996. Assignments of a tenant’s leasehold interest releases<br />

outgoing tenants from continuing liability for the remainder of the contractual term. In Northern Ireland leases<br />

will typically provide that the landlord’s consent should be obtained prior to any assignment. This consent is<br />

usually qualified to provide that such consent should not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.<br />

In Northern Ireland the ability to require an “authorised guarantee agreement” from an outgoing tenant does<br />

not exist.<br />

The only liability that can remain with an outgoing tenant is that in respect to any environmental liability,<br />

i.e., contamination where the causation can be clearly traced back to a previous tenant.<br />

Set-Off Rights. The set-off rights of tenants under leases in Northern Ireland are in general equivalent to<br />

those in England as described above under “Certain Matters of English Law—Leases—Set-Off Rights”.<br />

Landlord’s Remedies. Leases of commercial property in Northern Ireland contain provisions to allow the<br />

landlord to terminate the lease on a tenant’s insolvency or if there is a breach of a tenant’s obligations.<br />

Administration, Receivership and Bankruptcy Under Northern <strong>Irish</strong> Law. The insolvency laws of Northern<br />

Ireland are primarily contained in the Insolvency (NI) Order 1989 (as from time to time amended) and the<br />

Insolvency (NI) Rules 1991 (as from time to time amended).<br />

The laws are in general equivalent to those in England described above under “Certain Matters of English<br />

Law—Administration, Receivership, Insolvency and Bankruptcy under English Law”.<br />

Certain Matters of Cayman Islands Law<br />

The following is an outline of certain aspects of Cayman Islands law and practice relevant to lending on a<br />

secured basis over shares in a Cayman Islands company. This is not a complete summary of currently applicable<br />

Cayman Islands law or practice, and should not be treated as a substitute for professional advice. Prospective<br />

Noteholders who are in any doubt as to any matter described in this Offering Circular should consult their own<br />

professional advisers.<br />

Security Over Shares Under Cayman Islands Law<br />

Security in the shares of a Cayman Islands company is taken either by an equitable charge of the shares or<br />

by a legal mortgage of the shares. As a general matter, it is not possible to take a “pledge” of shares of a<br />

Cayman Islands company in registered form. The relevant distinction is between negotiable instruments (such<br />

as bearer shares and bonds) which embody title to securities and non-negotiable instruments such as registered<br />

202


shares. The right to the former is transferred by delivery of the instrument and security in the same may be<br />

created by way of pledge. The latter, however, cannot be pledged as title does not pass on delivery.<br />

The fundamental distinction between an equitable charge and a legal mortgage is that, in the former case,<br />

the shareholder granting the charge (the “Chargor”) retains legal title to the shares until default, whilst in the<br />

latter case, legal title is transferred to the party granting credit (the “Chargee”) when the Charge is created.<br />

From a security point of view, an equitable charge is less satisfactory than a legal mortgage in that it will<br />

rank behind any subsequent legal mortgage granted by a third party without notice of the equitable mortgage<br />

and will generally rank behind any prior equities. Further, the articles of association of the Cayman Islands<br />

company may contain restrictions or impediments to share transfers which could impact enforcement. On the<br />

other hand, a major disadvantage of a legal mortgage is that it may operate to group the Chargee and the<br />

Cayman Islands company with potential adverse tax and regulatory consequences and accounting complications.<br />

Note that some of the disadvantages associated with an equitable charge of shares can be addressed by the<br />

service of a “Stop Notice” in accordance with the rules of the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands. This is a<br />

procedure allowing the Chargee to serve a notice on the Cayman Islands company preventing the Cayman<br />

Islands company from registering a transfer (or other dealing) in the securities until it has given 14 days’ notice<br />

to the Chargee of its intention to do so. The purpose of the rule is to allow the Chargee an opportunity to take<br />

steps (including an application for an injunction) to stop the proposed transfer or dealing.<br />

Note also that, apart from security interests in land and certain types of personal property (i.e. aircraft and<br />

vessels), there is no system for registration of security interests in the Cayman Islands. Section 54 of the<br />

Companies Law provides that a Cayman Islands Chargor granting a mortgage or charge of its assets must record<br />

the same in its Register of Mortgages and Charges, but failure to do so does not have any consequences to<br />

attachment, perfection or priority of the security interest.<br />

Documents creating security in the shares of a Cayman Islands company will be subject to stamp duty in the<br />

event the documents are executed in or brought into the Cayman Islands for enforcement or otherwise. Stamp<br />

duty is calculated at 1.5 per cent. of the amount charged, but is subject to a cap of CI$500 (US$600) where the<br />

Chargor is a foreign company or is a Cayman Islands non-resident or exempted company.<br />

Assignment of a Security Interest<br />

Provided the charge allows for the security interest to be assigned without consent, the Chargee can assign<br />

its interest to a third party. However, pursuant to Cayman Islands law, the Chargee must give notice to the<br />

Chargor of such assignment.<br />

Enforcement of Security over Shares<br />

If the Chargee has taken a legal mortgage of the shares, upon default the Chargee is able to sell the shares<br />

(subject to any contractual restrictions contained in the Charge). Note that the articles of association of the<br />

Cayman Islands company may contain restrictions or impediments to share transfers.<br />

If the Chargee has taken an equitable mortgage of the shares, upon default the Chargee would have the<br />

shares transferred to itself and proceed to sell the shares (subject to any contractual restrictions contained in the<br />

Charge). Note that the articles of association of the Cayman Islands company may contain restrictions or<br />

impediments to share transfers.<br />

Certain Matters of Jersey Law<br />

The following is a summary of certain aspects of Jersey law related to the creation and enforcement of<br />

security governed by Jersey law, the enforcement of English judgments and the institution of insolvency<br />

proceedings in relation to companies (other than cell companies) incorporated under the Companies (Jersey)<br />

Law 1991, as amended. This is not a complete summary of currently applicable Jersey law and prospective<br />

Noteholders should consult their own professional advisers.<br />

Creation of security interests. As a matter of Jersey law, security over intangible moveable property (other<br />

than a lease) may only be created pursuant to the Security Interests (Jersey) Law 1983, as amended (the “Jersey<br />

Security Law”).<br />

203


Security over bank accounts: A security interest agreement under Jersey law is created in respect of a bank<br />

account by assignment of title and the giving of notice to the account bank (where the secured party and the<br />

account bank are different entities). Under Jersey law, on enforcement of a Jersey security interest agreement<br />

over a bank account, the secured party under the security must give written notice of the event of default to the<br />

debtor and it may then exercise its statutory power of sale (subject to a 14 day grace period to allow the debtor<br />

to remedy the event of default, if it is capable of remedy). In the case of monies in a bank account, the secured<br />

party is entitled to appropriate the account balance and apply it in the statutory order of payments.<br />

Security over shares: A security interest under Jersey law is created in respect of shares in a Jersey<br />

company by (i) taking possession pursuant to a security interest agreement of the certificates of title to the<br />

shares; or (ii) assigning title to the shares pursuant to a security interest agreement and giving notice of the<br />

assignment to the company whose shares are the subject of the security interest. Under Jersey law, on<br />

enforcement of a Jersey security interest in respect of shares, the secured party must give written notice of the<br />

event of default to the debtor and it may then exercise its statutory power of sale (subject to a 14 day grace<br />

period to allow the debtor to remedy the default, if it is capable of remedy). Following the exercise of the power<br />

of sale, the proceeds are required to be applied in the statutory order of payments.<br />

Pre-insolvency enforcement – Power of Sale. A power of sale under the Jersey Security Law arises after the<br />

occurrence of an event of default (as specified in the relevant security agreement). The power of sale does not<br />

become exercisable unless the secured party has served on the debtor a notice specifying the event of default<br />

and, if the default is capable of remedy, requiring the debtor to remedy it. In addition, if the default is capable<br />

of remedy, the power of sale only becomes exercisable within 14 days after the debtor has received such notice.<br />

If the collateral is not money or represented by a negotiable instrument or moneys in a bank account, the power<br />

of sale shall be exercised only on the authority of an order of the Royal Court unless the security agreement<br />

provides to the contrary (which is usually the case).<br />

The Jersey Security Law provides that, where the collateral is money or represented by a negotiable<br />

instrument or moneys held in a bank account, the secured party may apply such collateral as if it were the<br />

proceeds of sale under the statutory power of sale. However, if the collateral is not money or represented by a<br />

negotiable instrument or moneys held in a bank account, the Jersey Security Law only provides for the exercise<br />

of the power of sale. There are no provisions in the Jersey Security Law for the secured party to take title to<br />

such collateral absolutely or to transfer the collateral to itself in settlement of the secured obligations. The need<br />

to find a third party transferee may impact on enforcement.<br />

The Jersey Security Law requires that, upon a sale, the secured party shall take all reasonable steps to<br />

ensure that the sale is made (a) within a reasonable time; and (b) for a price corresponding to the value on the<br />

open market at the time of sale for the collateral being sold.<br />

There is no case law in Jersey as to what constitutes a reasonable time in which to finalise the sale.<br />

The Jersey Security Law provides for a statutory order of application of proceeds of enforcement.<br />

Insolvency-Principal Insolvency Procedures. The usual circumstances under Jersey law in which someone<br />

may be appointed to take control of a person or such person’s movable assets upon insolvency are as follows:<br />

Désastre. This takes place upon the property of a debtor (which may include, amongst others, a Jersey<br />

company) being declared “en désastre” (a Jersey bankruptcy procedure) under the Bankruptcy (Désastre)<br />

(Jersey) Law 1990, as amended, (the “Désastre Law”) by the Royal Court of Jersey.<br />

In a désastre, an officer of the Court, the Viscount (the “Viscount”), conducts and administers the<br />

procedure, title and possession of all assets of the debtor vest in the Viscount and he will then sell such assets<br />

and, as far as possible, discharge the liabilities of the debtor.<br />

An application can be made to the Royal Court of Jersey for a declaration of désastre by a creditor with a<br />

claim of a liquidated sum of not less than £3,000, the debtor or, in certain circumstances, by the Jersey Financial<br />

Services Commission.<br />

The applicant must submit an affidavit showing that, amongst other things, to the best of the applicant’s<br />

knowledge and belief, the debtor is insolvent. The Désastre Law defines “insolvency” as an inability to meet<br />

debts as they fall due.<br />

204


The effect of a declaration of désastre is that all the property and powers of the debtor immediately vest in<br />

the Viscount. The Viscount may also claim property acquired by or devolved on the debtor after the date of the<br />

declaration. However, the declaration of désastre does not of itself terminate any contracts or agreements<br />

entered into by the debtor (although the Viscount has certain powers to disclaim onerous contracts and to apply<br />

to the Royal Court to set aside transactions at an undervalue and preferences). In the case of Jersey situs assets<br />

subject to a Jersey law governed security interest, the Jersey Security Law expressly provides that where the<br />

secured party has title to the collateral the secured party’s power to realise or deal with the collateral (including<br />

by exercise of the power of sale) is not affected by the insolvency of the debtor.<br />

The Viscount is responsible for liquidating the assets of the debtor and calling for, admitting or rejecting<br />

proofs of claims against the debtor. The money received by the Viscount shall be applied in accordance with<br />

the Désastre Law. However the Désastre Law provides that, where any property of a debtor is subject to a<br />

security interest created pursuant to the Jersey Security Law, the proceeds of sale are to be applied in the manner<br />

set out in the Jersey Security Law.<br />

The fact that the Viscount will automatically take title to the assets of the debtor, subject to any pre-existing<br />

rights in respect of such assets, has the consequence that the Viscount may need to be involved to effect the<br />

exercise of the statutory power of sale of assets secured by way of possession pursuant to the Jersey Security<br />

Law. However, it is unlikely that the Viscount would need to be involved if the secured party holds an<br />

irrevocable power of attorney pursuant to the relevant security agreement. Where the Viscount is required to be<br />

involved in the sale of the secured assets, he has, as a matter of practice, sought to claim his fees (which are<br />

currently approximately 10 per cent. of the value of realised assets) from such proceeds of sale over and above<br />

the costs and expenses of such sale.<br />

Under the Jersey Security Law, on a désastre of the property of a Jersey company, the Viscount may apply<br />

to the Royal Court of Jersey for an order vesting in him the rights of the secured party to the collateral subject to<br />

a security interest pursuant to the Jersey Security Law where the secured party has title to the collateral<br />

(including the power of sale under such law) and directing that it be sold. The proceeds of sale, following<br />

deduction of the Viscount’s costs (in accordance with his usual practice), will be applied according to the<br />

priority set out in the Jersey Security Law. The Viscount is most likely to make such application to the Royal<br />

Court of Jersey if the secured party is acting in a way that the Viscount considers detrimental to the conduct of<br />

the désastre, for example, by the secured party being dilatory in exercising his power of sale under the Jersey<br />

Security Law.<br />

Creditors’ winding up under the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991 (the “CJL”). A creditors’ winding-up<br />

relates only to Jersey companies and can only be commenced by special resolution of the shareholders of the<br />

company. That being the case, a creditors’ winding up cannot be instigated by a creditor (unless that creditor is<br />

a shareholder with the requisite majority). The CJL provides a liquidator may be appointed to conduct the<br />

winding up.<br />

A creditors’ winding up is commenced by the passing of a special resolution of shareholders to wind up the<br />

company in circumstances where each of the directors have not, in the 28 days prior to the passing of such<br />

resolution, signed a statement of solvency that, having made full inquiry into the affairs of the company, either:<br />

(a) the company has no assets and no liabilities;<br />

(b) the company has assets and no liabilities;<br />

(c) the company will be able to discharge its liabilities in full within the 6 months after the commencement<br />

of the winding up;<br />

(d) the company has liabilities that will fall due more than 6 months after the commencement of the<br />

winding up that it will be able to discharge in full as they fall due; or<br />

(e) both sub-paragraphs (c) and (d) apply to the company,<br />

as the case may be.<br />

The CJL contains wrongful trading provisions which may make directors personally responsible for the<br />

debts and liabilities of the company if they fail to take action to reduce the potential loss to the creditors when<br />

they knew or were reckless as to whether the company could avoid a creditors’ winding up. The Désastre Law<br />

205


contains similar wrongful trading provisions. These provisions will often trigger the directors’ decision to ask<br />

the shareholders to consider a special resolution approving a creditors’ winding up.<br />

A creditors’ meeting is required to be held on the same day as the shareholders’ meeting to pass the special<br />

resolution, at which the directors must lay a statement, verified by affidavit, as to the affairs of the company. A<br />

liquidator being an individual with the requisite professional qualifications, is appointed by the creditors’<br />

meeting or, in default, by the shareholders’ meeting.<br />

After the commencement of a creditors’ winding up, the company’s corporate state and capacity shall<br />

continue until final dissolution but it shall cease to carry on its business. The commencement does not of itself<br />

terminate any contracts or agreements entered into by the company (although the liquidator has certain powers<br />

to disclaim onerous contracts and to apply to the Royal Court to set aside extortionate credit transactions,<br />

transactions at an undervalue and preferences). The liquidator stands in the shoes of the directors and will be<br />

responsible for liquidating the assets of the company and for calling for, admitting or rejecting proofs of claims<br />

against the company. The order of priorities of payments of creditors applicable on a creditors’ winding up is<br />

similar to than on a désastre (including the priority in respect of Jersey security interests). There are no<br />

moratorium provisions in the CJL.<br />

The creditors’ winding up and désastre are the principal insolvency procedures available in respect of a<br />

corporate debtor.<br />

Enforcement of judgments of the High Court of Justice, the Court of Appeal or the House of Lords in<br />

England. A final and conclusive judgment under which a sum of money is payable (not being a sum payable in<br />

respect of taxes or other charges of a like nature or in respect of a fine or penalty) obtained in the High Court of<br />

Justice, the Court of Appeal or the House of Lords in England against a Jersey company would be recognised as<br />

a valid judgment by the Jersey courts and would be enforceable in accordance with and subject to the provisions<br />

of the Judgments (Reciprocal Enforcement) (Jersey) Law 1960 (the “JRL”), without a substantive reexamination<br />

of the merits of such judgment. The JRL contains provisions enabling an application to be made to<br />

the Jersey Courts to set aside a judgment registered under the JRL on the following grounds: (a) the judgment is<br />

not a judgment to which the JRL applies; or (b) the High Court of Justice in England had no jurisdiction in the<br />

circumstance of the case: or (c) the judgment debtor, being the defendant in the High Court of Justice in<br />

England, did not receive notice of those proceeding in sufficient time to enable him to defend those proceedings<br />

and did not appear; or (d) the judgment was obtained by fraud; or (e) that the enforcement of the judgment in<br />

Jersey would be contrary to public policy in Jersey; or (f) that the rights under the judgment are not vested in the<br />

person by whom the application for registration was made; or (g) that the matter in dispute in the proceedings in<br />

the High Court of Justice in England had previously to the date of the judgment in the High Court of Justice in<br />

England been the subject of a final and conclusive judgment by a court having jurisdiction in the matter.<br />

206


IRISH TAXATION<br />

The following is a summary based on the laws and practices currently in force in Ireland regarding<br />

the tax position of investors beneficially owning their Notes and should be treated with appropriate<br />

caution. Particular rules may apply to certain classes of taxpayers holding Notes. The summary does not<br />

constitute tax or legal advice and the comments below are of a general nature only. Prospective investors<br />

in the Notes should consult their professional advisers on the tax implications of the purchase, holding,<br />

redemption or sale of the Notes and the receipt of interest thereon under the laws of their country of<br />

residence, citizenship or domicile. Prospective investors should be aware that the anticipated tax<br />

treatment in Ireland summarised below may change.<br />

Taxation of the Issuer<br />

Corporation Tax<br />

In general, companies resident in Ireland for the purposes of <strong>Irish</strong> tax must pay corporation tax on their<br />

income at the rate of 12.5 per cent. in relation to trading income and at the rate of 25 per cent. in relation to<br />

income that is not income from a trade. However, Section 110 of the Taxes Consolidation Act of Ireland as<br />

amended 1997 (“TCA 1997”) provides for special treatment in relation to qualifying companies. A qualifying<br />

company means a company:<br />

(a) which is resident in Ireland;<br />

(b) which either acquires qualifying assets from a person, holds, manages or both holds and manages<br />

qualifying assets as a result of an arrangement with another person, or has entered into a legally<br />

enforceable arrangement with another person which itself constitutes a qualifying asset;<br />

(c) which carries on in Ireland a business of holding qualifying assets or managing qualifying assets or<br />

both;<br />

(d) which, apart from activities ancillary to that business, carries on no other activities;<br />

(e) which has notified an authorised officer of the Revenue Commissioners in the prescribed format that it<br />

is or intends to be such a qualifying company; and<br />

(f) the market value of all qualifying assets held or managed by the company or the market value of all<br />

qualifying assets in respect of which the company has entered into legally enforceable arrangements is<br />

not less than €10,000,000 on the day on which the qualifying assets are first acquired, first held, or a<br />

legally enforceable arrangement in respect of the qualifying assets is entered into (which is itself a<br />

qualifying asset),<br />

but a company shall not be a qualifying company if any transaction is carried out by it otherwise than by<br />

way of a bargain made at arm’s length apart from where that transaction is the payment of consideration for the<br />

use of principal (other than where that consideration is paid to certain companies within the charge of <strong>Irish</strong><br />

corporation tax as part of a scheme of tax avoidance).<br />

A qualifying asset is a financial asset or an interest in a financial asset.<br />

If a company is a qualifying company for the purpose of Section 110 TCA 1997, then profits arising from<br />

its activities shall be chargeable to corporation tax under Case III of Schedule D (which is applicable to nontrading<br />

income) at a rate of 25 per cent. However, for that purpose those profits shall be computed in<br />

accordance with the provisions applicable to Case I of the Schedule (which is applicable to trading income). On<br />

this basis and on the basis that the interest on the Notes:<br />

(a) does not represent more than a reasonable commercial return on the principal outstanding and it is not<br />

dependant on the results of the company’s business; or<br />

(b) it is not paid to certain companies within the charge of <strong>Irish</strong> corporation tax as part of a scheme of tax<br />

avoidance, then<br />

the interest in respect of the Notes issued will be deductible in determining the taxable profits of the<br />

company.<br />

207


Stamp Duty<br />

If the Issuer is a qualifying company within the meaning of Section 110 TCA 1997, as amended, (and it is<br />

expected that the Issuer will be such a qualifying company) no <strong>Irish</strong> stamp duty will be payable on either the<br />

issue or transfer of the Notes, provided that the money raised by the issue of the Notes is used in the course of<br />

the Issuer’s business.<br />

Taxation of Noteholders—Income Tax<br />

In general, persons who are resident in Ireland are liable to <strong>Irish</strong> taxation on their world-wide income<br />

whereas persons who are not resident in Ireland are only liable to <strong>Irish</strong> taxation on their <strong>Irish</strong> source income. All<br />

persons are under a statutory obligation to account for <strong>Irish</strong> tax on a self-assessment basis and there is no<br />

requirement for the Revenue Commissioners to issue or raise an assessment.<br />

Interest paid and discounts realised on the Notes may be regarded as having an <strong>Irish</strong> source and therefore<br />

interest earned and discounts realised on such Notes may be regarded as <strong>Irish</strong> source income. Accordingly,<br />

pursuant to general <strong>Irish</strong> tax rules, a non-<strong>Irish</strong> resident person in receipt of such income would be technically<br />

liable to <strong>Irish</strong> income tax (and levies if received by an individual) subject to the provisions of any applicable<br />

double tax treaty. Ireland has currently 44 double tax treaties in effect (see “Withholding Taxes” below) and the<br />

majority of them exempt interest (which sometimes includes discounts) from <strong>Irish</strong> tax when received by a<br />

resident of the other jurisdiction. Credit is available for any <strong>Irish</strong> tax withheld from income on account of the<br />

related income tax liability. Companies that are not resident in Ireland for the purposes of <strong>Irish</strong> tax, where the<br />

income is not attributable to a branch or agency of the company in Ireland, are subject to income tax at the<br />

standard rate. Therefore any withholding tax suffered should be equal to and in satisfaction of the full income<br />

tax liability. (Companies that are not resident in Ireland for the purposes of <strong>Irish</strong> tax operating in Ireland<br />

through a branch or agency of the company in Ireland to which the income is attributable would be subject to<br />

<strong>Irish</strong> corporation tax).<br />

There is an exemption from <strong>Irish</strong> income tax under Section 198 TCA 1997 in certain circumstances.<br />

These circumstances include:<br />

(a) where interest is paid by a qualifying company within the meaning of Section 110 TCA 1997 to a<br />

person that is resident in an EU Member State (other than Ireland) or is a resident of a territory with<br />

which Ireland has a double tax treaty that is in effect, under the terms of that treaty;<br />

(b) where interest is paid by a company to a person that is not resident in Ireland and that is regarded as<br />

being resident in an EU Member State (other than Ireland) or is a resident of a territory with which<br />

Ireland has a double tax treaty that is in effect, under the terms of that treaty, and the interest is exempt<br />

from withholding tax because it is payable on a quoted Eurobond (see “Withholding Taxes” below); or<br />

(c) where the interest is paid by a company in the ordinary course of its trade or business and the recipient<br />

of the interest is a company that is resident in an EU Member State (other than Ireland) or that is a<br />

resident of a territory with which Ireland has a double tax treaty that is in effect, under the terms of that<br />

treaty.<br />

Interest on the Notes which does not fall within the above exemptions and discounts realised are within the<br />

charge to <strong>Irish</strong> income tax to the extent that a double tax treaty that is in effect does not exempt the interest or<br />

discount as the case may be. However, it is understood that the Revenue Commissioners have, in the past,<br />

operated a practice (as a consequence of the absence of a collection mechanism rather than adopted policy)<br />

whereby no action will be taken to pursue any liability to such <strong>Irish</strong> tax in respect of persons who are regarded<br />

as not being resident in Ireland except where such persons:<br />

(i) are chargeable in the name of a person (including a trustee) or in the name of an agent or branch in<br />

Ireland having the management or control of the interest; or<br />

(ii) seek to claim relief and/or repayment of tax deducted at source in respect of taxed income from<br />

<strong>Irish</strong> sources; or<br />

(iii) are chargeable to <strong>Irish</strong> corporation tax on the income of an <strong>Irish</strong> branch or agency or to income tax<br />

on the profits of a trade carried on in Ireland to which the interest is attributable.<br />

208


There can be no assurance that the Revenue Commissioners will apply this practice in the case of the<br />

holders of Notes and, as mentioned above, there is a statutory obligation to account for <strong>Irish</strong> tax on a selfassessment<br />

basis and there is no requirement for the Revenue Commissioners to issue or raise an assessment.<br />

Withholding Taxes<br />

In general, withholding tax at the rate of 20 per cent. must be deducted from payments of yearly interest<br />

that are within the charge to <strong>Irish</strong> tax, which would include those made by a company resident in Ireland for the<br />

purpose of <strong>Irish</strong> tax. However, Section 64 TCA 1997 provides for the payment of interest in respect of quoted<br />

Eurobonds without deduction of tax in certain circumstances. A “quoted Eurobond” is defined in Section 64<br />

TCA 1997 as a security which:<br />

(a) is issued by a company;<br />

(b) is quoted on a recognised stock exchange (the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> is a recognised stock exchange for<br />

this purpose); and<br />

(c) carries a right to interest.<br />

There is no obligation to withhold tax on quoted Eurobonds where:<br />

(a) the person by or through whom the payment is made is not in Ireland; or<br />

(b) the payment is made by or through a person in Ireland, and<br />

(i) the quoted Eurobond is held in a recognised clearing system (Euroclear and Clearstream,<br />

Luxembourg are recognised clearing systems); or<br />

(ii) the person who is the beneficial owner of the quoted Eurobond and who is beneficially entitled to<br />

the interest is not resident in Ireland and has made an appropriate declaration to this effect.<br />

As the Notes to be issued by the Issuer will qualify as quoted Eurobonds and as they will be held in<br />

Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, the payment of interest in respect of such Notes should be capable of<br />

being made without withholding tax, regardless of where the Noteholder is resident.<br />

Separately, Section 246 TCA 1997 (“Section 246”) provides certain exemptions from this general<br />

obligation to withhold tax. Section 246 provides an exemption in respect of interest payments made by a<br />

qualifying company within the meaning of Section 110 TCA 1997 to a person resident in a relevant territory<br />

except where that person is a company and the interest is paid to the company in connection with a trade or<br />

business carried on in Ireland by that company through a branch or agency. Also Section 246 provides an<br />

exemption in respect of interest payments made by a company in the ordinary course of business carried on by it<br />

to a company resident in a relevant territory except where the interest is paid to the company in connection with<br />

a trade or business carried on in Ireland by that company through a branch or agency. A relevant territory for<br />

this purpose is an E.U. Member State, other than Ireland, or not being such a Member State, a territory with<br />

which Ireland has entered into a double tax treaty that is in effect. As of the Closing Date, Ireland has entered<br />

into a double tax treaty with each of Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, China, Chile (signed but not<br />

yet in effect), Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary,<br />

Iceland, Israel, India, Italy, Japan, Korea (Rep. of), Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Mexico, the<br />

Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Pakistan, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Slovak Republic, Slovenia,<br />

South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States of America and Zambia. New<br />

treaties with Argentina, Egypt, Kuwait, Malta, Moldova, Morocco, Thailand, Tunisia, Turkey, Ukraine and<br />

Vietnam are in the course of being negotiated.<br />

Discounts realised on the Notes will not be subject to <strong>Irish</strong> withholding tax.<br />

Encashment Tax<br />

Interest on any Note which qualifies for exemption from withholding tax on interest as a quoted Eurobond<br />

(see above) realised or collected by an agent in Ireland on behalf of any Noteholder will be subject to a<br />

withholding at the standard rate of <strong>Irish</strong> income tax (currently 20 per cent.). This is unless the beneficial owner<br />

of the Note that is entitled to the interest is not resident in Ireland and makes a declaration in the required form.<br />

209


This is provided that such interest is not for the purposes of <strong>Irish</strong> tax deemed, under the provisions of <strong>Irish</strong> tax<br />

legislation, to be the income of another person that is resident in Ireland.<br />

Capital Gains Tax<br />

A holder of a Note will not be subject to <strong>Irish</strong> taxes on capital gains provided that such holder is neither<br />

resident nor ordinarily resident in Ireland and such holder does not have an enterprise, or an interest in an<br />

enterprise, which carries on business in Ireland through a branch or agency or a permanent establishment to<br />

which or to whom the Notes are attributable.<br />

Capital Acquisitions Tax<br />

If the Notes are comprised in a gift or inheritance taken from an <strong>Irish</strong> resident or ordinarily resident<br />

disponer or if the disponer’s successor is resident or ordinarily resident in Ireland, or if any of the Notes are<br />

regarded as property situated in Ireland, the disponer’s successor (primarily), or the disponer, may be liable to<br />

<strong>Irish</strong> capital acquisitions tax. The Notes may be regarded as property situated in Ireland.<br />

For the purposes of capital acquisitions tax, under current legislation a non-<strong>Irish</strong> domiciled person will not<br />

be treated as resident or ordinarily resident in Ireland for the purposes of the applicable legislation except where<br />

that person has been resident in Ireland for the purposes of <strong>Irish</strong> tax for the 5 consecutive years of assessment<br />

immediately preceding the year of assessment in which the date of the gift or inheritance falls.<br />

Value Added Tax<br />

The provision of financial services is an exempt transaction for <strong>Irish</strong> Value Added Tax (“<strong>Irish</strong> VAT”)<br />

purposes. Accordingly, in general the Issuer should not be entitled to recover <strong>Irish</strong> VAT suffered.<br />

EU Directive on the Taxation of Savings Income<br />

On 3 June 2003, the <strong>Europe</strong>an Council of Economics and Finance Ministers adopted the <strong>Europe</strong>an Union<br />

Council Directive 2003/48/EC on the taxation of savings income (the “Directive”). Under the Directive,<br />

Member States are required to provide to the tax authorities of another Member State details of payments of<br />

interest (or similar income) paid by a person within its jurisdiction to an individual resident in that other<br />

Member State. However, for a transitional period, Belgium, Luxembourg and Austria are instead required<br />

(unless during that period they elect otherwise) to operate a withholding system in relation to such payments<br />

(the ending of such transitional period being dependent upon the conclusion of certain other agreements relating<br />

to information exchange with certain other countries).<br />

The Directive has been enacted into <strong>Irish</strong> legislation. Where any person in the course of a business or<br />

profession carried on in Ireland makes an interest payment to, or secures an interest payment for the immediate<br />

benefit of, the beneficial owner of that interest, where that beneficial owner is an individual, that person must, in<br />

accordance with the methods prescribed in the legislation, establish the identity and residence of that beneficial<br />

owner. Where such a person makes such a payment to a “residual entity” then that interest payment is a<br />

“deemed interest payment” of the “residual entity” for the purpose of this legislation. A “residual entity”, in<br />

relation to “deemed interest payments”, must, in accordance with the methods prescribed in the legislation,<br />

establish the identity and residence of the beneficial owners of the interest payments received that are comprised<br />

in the “deemed interest payments”.<br />

“Residual Entity” means a person or undertaking established in Ireland or in another Member State or in<br />

an “associated territory” to which an interest payment is made for the benefit of a beneficial owner that is an<br />

individual, unless that person or undertaking is within the charge to corporation tax or a tax corresponding to<br />

corporation tax, or it has, in the prescribed format for the purposes of this legislation, elected to be treated in the<br />

same manner as an undertaking for collective investment in transferable securities within the meaning of the<br />

UCITS Directive 85/611/EEC, or it is such an entity or it is an equivalent entity established in an “associated<br />

territory”, or it is a legal person (not being an individual) other than certain Finnish or Swedish legal persons<br />

that are excluded from the exemption from this definition in the Directive.<br />

Procedures relating to the reporting of details of payments of interest (or similar income) made by any<br />

person in the course of a business or profession carried on in Ireland, to beneficial owners that are individuals or<br />

to residual entities resident in another Member State or an “associated territory” and procedures relating to the<br />

reporting of details of deemed interest payments made by residual entities where the beneficial owner is an<br />

210


individual resident in another Member State or an “associated territory”, apply in Ireland. For the purposes of<br />

these paragraphs “associated territory” means Aruba, Netherlands Antilles, Jersey, Gibraltar, Guernsey, Isle of<br />

Man, Anguilla, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Andorra, Liechtenstein, Monaco, San Marino, the Swiss<br />

Confederation, Montserrat and Turks and Caicos Islands.<br />

211


UNITED KINGDOM TAXATION<br />

The following, which applies only to persons who are the beneficial owners of the Notes, is a summary<br />

of the Issuer’s understanding of current United Kingdom tax law and HM Revenue & Customs practice<br />

as at the date of this Offering Circular relating to certain aspects of the United Kingdom taxation of the<br />

Notes. It is not a comprehensive analysis of the tax consequences arising in respect of Notes and so should<br />

be treated with appropriate caution. Some aspects do not apply to certain classes of taxpayer (such as<br />

dealers) to whom special rules may apply. Prospective Noteholders who are in any doubt about their tax<br />

position or who may be subject to a tax in a jurisdiction other than the United Kingdom should seek their<br />

own professional advice.<br />

United Kingdom Withholding Tax<br />

Interest payments on the Notes (whether in global or registered definitive form) will be payable without<br />

withholding or deduction for or on account of United Kingdom income tax provided that the Notes are listed on<br />

a recognised stock exchange within the meaning of Section 1005 of the Income Tax Act <strong>2007</strong> (which includes<br />

the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong>) as the Notes constitute quoted Eurobonds being Notes which:<br />

(a) are issued by a company;<br />

(b) are listed on a recognised stock exchange; and<br />

(c) carry a right to interest.<br />

Noteholders who are individuals should note that where any interest on Notes is paid to them (or to any<br />

person acting on their behalf) by any person in the United Kingdom acting on behalf of the Issuer (a “paying<br />

agent”), or is received by any person or entity in the United Kingdom acting on behalf of the relevant<br />

Noteholder (a “receiving agent”) then the paying agent or the receiving agent (as the case may be) may, or in<br />

the case of Noteholders in a ‘prescribed territory’ must, supply to HM Revenue & Customs details of the<br />

payment and certain details relating to the Noteholder (including the Noteholder’s identity and country of<br />

residence). These details will be passed on to the tax authorities of any ‘prescribed territory’ in which the<br />

Noteholder is resident. For the purpose of this paragraph, ‘prescribed territory’ means any EU Member State,<br />

Aruba, British Virgin Islands, Gibraltar, Isle of Man, Jersey, Montserrat or Netherlands Antilles.<br />

United Kingdom Corporation Tax Payers<br />

Noteholders which are within the charge to corporation tax will be charged to tax as income on all profits<br />

and gains on, and fluctuations in value of, the Notes (whether attributable to currency fluctuations or otherwise)<br />

in relation to periods of account beginning on or after 1 January 2005, broadly, consistently with the way such<br />

profits, gains and fluctuations in value are recognised in their accounts provided their accounts are prepared in<br />

accordance with international accounting standards or United Kingdom generally accepted accounting practice.<br />

Other United Kingdom Tax Payers<br />

Accrued Income Scheme<br />

For the purposes of provisions known as the accrued income scheme, a transfer of a Note by a Noteholder<br />

resident or ordinarily resident in the United Kingdom or a Noteholder who carries on a trade in the United<br />

Kingdom through a permanent establishment to which the Note is attributable, may give rise to a charge to<br />

United Kingdom tax on income in respect of an amount treated, under the Accrued Income Scheme, as<br />

representing interest accrued on the Note at the time of transfer. For further information in this regard,<br />

Noteholders should seek their own professional advice.<br />

The Class E Notes, Class V Notes and Class X Notes are likely to constitute variable rate securities for the<br />

purposes of the Accrued Income Scheme. Under the Accrued Income Scheme on a disposal of the Class E<br />

Notes, Class V Notes and Class X Notes by a Noteholder who is resident or ordinarily resident in the United<br />

Kingdom or carries on a trade in the United Kingdom through a permanent establishment to which the Class E<br />

Notes, Class V Notes and Class X Notes are attributable, the Noteholder may be charged to income tax on an<br />

amount of interest which is just and reasonable in the circumstances. The purchaser of such a Note will not be<br />

entitled to any equivalent tax credit under the accrued income scheme to set against any actual interest received<br />

212


y the purchaser in respect of the Class E Notes, Class V Notes and Class X Notes (which may therefore be<br />

taxable in full).<br />

Taxation of Chargeable Gains<br />

A disposal of the Notes by an individual Noteholder who is resident or ordinarily resident in the United<br />

Kingdom, or who carries on a trade, profession or vocation in the United Kingdom through a permanent<br />

establishment to which the Notes are attributable, may give rise to a chargeable gain or an allowable loss for the<br />

purpose of taxation of capital gains.<br />

Stamp Duty and Stamp Duty Reserve Tax<br />

No United Kingdom stamp duty, stamp duty reserve tax (“SDRT”) or stamp duty land tax is payable on the<br />

issue of the Notes.<br />

Transfer of the Notes within a clearing service will not be chargeable to United Kingdom stamp duty unless<br />

such transfer is effected by means of a written instrument and then only if such written instrument is executed in<br />

the United Kingdom or relates to some matter or thing to be done in the United Kingdom. Although a liability<br />

to United Kingdom stamp duty may arise in respect of such a written instrument, it is not likely that any such<br />

duty will need to be paid in practice, unless the written instrument is required to be produced in the United<br />

Kingdom for official purposes.<br />

No liability to SDRT should arise in respect of an agreement to transfer the Notes where they are held by<br />

the Common Depository and where such transfer would be effected through the transfer of Book-Entry Interests<br />

within the clearing service itself, so long as such clearing service has not made an election under section 97A<br />

Finance Act 1986 for an alternative system of charge.<br />

Agreements to transfer the Notes outside a clearing service may be subject to SDRT.<br />

EU Directive on the Taxation of Savings Income<br />

On 3 June 2003, the <strong>Europe</strong>an Council of Economics and Finance Ministers adopted the EC Council<br />

Directive 2003/48/EC (the “Directive”) on the taxation of savings income. Under the Directive, Member States<br />

are required, from 1 July 2005, to provide to the tax authorities of another Member State details of payments of<br />

interest (or similar income) paid by a person within its jurisdiction to an individual resident in that other<br />

Member State. However, for a transitional period, Belgium, Luxembourg and Austria will instead be required<br />

(unless during that period they elect otherwise) to operate a withholding system in relation to such payments<br />

(the ending of such transitional period being dependent upon the conclusion of certain other agreements relating<br />

to information exchange with certain other countries). A number of non-EU countries and territories, including<br />

Switzerland, have agreed to adopt similar measures (a withholding system in the case of Switzerland) with<br />

effect from the same date.<br />

213


UNITED STATES TAXATION<br />

The following summary is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of<br />

avoiding U.S. federal, state, or local tax penalties. The following summary is provided in connection with the<br />

promotion or marketing by the Issuer and the Manager of the transactions or matters addressed in this<br />

prospectus supplement. Investors should seek advice based on their particular circumstances from an<br />

independent tax advisor.<br />

The following is a summary of certain United States federal income tax considerations for original<br />

purchasers of the Notes that use the accrual method of accounting for United States federal income tax purposes<br />

and that hold the Notes as capital assets. This summary does not discuss all aspects of United States federal<br />

income taxation that might be important to particular investors in light of their individual investment<br />

circumstances, such as investors subject to special tax rules (e.g., financial institutions, insurance companies,<br />

tax-exempt institutions, non-United States persons engaged in a trade or business within the United States, or<br />

persons the functional currency of which is not the United States dollar). In particular, investors not using the<br />

accrual method of accounting for United States federal income tax purposes may be subject to special rules not<br />

described herein. In addition, this summary does not discuss any non-United States, state, or local tax<br />

considerations. This summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and<br />

administrative and judicial authorities, all as in effect on the date hereof and all of which are subject to change,<br />

possibly on a retroactive basis.<br />

Prospective investors should consult their tax advisers regarding the federal, state, local, and non-<br />

United States income and other tax considerations of owning the Notes. No rulings will be sought from<br />

the United States Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) with respect to the United States federal income<br />

tax consequences described below.<br />

For purposes of this summary, a “United States holder” means a beneficial owner of a Note who or which<br />

is, for United States federal income tax purposes, (i) a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation<br />

or partnership created or organised in or under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof or the<br />

District of Columbia, or (iii) an estate or trust described in section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (taking into account<br />

effective dates, transition rules and elections in connection therewith). A “non-United States holder” means a<br />

beneficial owner of a Note that is not a United States holder.<br />

Characterisation of the Notes<br />

The Issuer intends to take the position that the Notes are debt for United States federal income tax purposes.<br />

However, the Issuer will not obtain any rulings or opinions of counsel on the characterisation of the Notes and<br />

there can be no assurance that the IRS or the courts will agree with the position of the Issuer. In particular,<br />

because of the subordination and other features of the Class E Notes (and to a lesser extent, a more senior class<br />

of Notes), the fact that the Class X Notes consist disproportionately of interest payments and the fact that the<br />

Class V Notes consist of payments contingent upon the occurrence of certain events, there is a significant<br />

possibility that the IRS could successfully contend that such classes should be treated as equity. See “—<br />

Possible Alternative Characterisation of the Notes” and “—Taxation of the Class V Notes” below. Absent a<br />

final determination by the IRS to the contrary, the Issuer will treat the Notes as debt for purposes of United<br />

States federal, state and local income or franchise taxes and any other United States federal, state and local taxes<br />

imposed on or measured by income. In addition, each Noteholder and Owner, by acceptance of a Note or a<br />

beneficial interest therein, agrees to treat the Notes as debt for the purposes of United States federal, state and<br />

local income or franchise taxes and any other United States, federal, state and local taxes imposed on or<br />

measured by income and to report the Notes on all applicable tax returns in a manner consistent with such<br />

treatment unless there has been a final determination by the IRS that such treatment is improper. Unless<br />

otherwise indicated, the discussion in the following paragraphs assumes this characterisation of the Notes is<br />

correct for United States federal income tax purposes. The following paragraphs are also based on the<br />

assumption that the Issuer will not be engaged in a trade or business within the United States.<br />

Interest Income of United States Holders<br />

General: Assuming the Notes are not issued with original issue discount (“OID”) for United States federal<br />

income tax purposes (as discussed below), interest on such Notes will be taxable to a United States holder as<br />

ordinary income at the time it is accrued.<br />

214


A Note will be considered issued with OID if its “stated redemption price at maturity” exceeds its “issue<br />

price” (i.e., the price at which a substantial portion of the respective class of Notes is first sold (not including<br />

sales to the Manager)) by an amount equal to or greater than 0.25 per cent. of such Note’s stated redemption<br />

price at maturity multiplied by such Note’s weighted average maturity (“WAM”). In general, a Note’s “stated<br />

redemption price at maturity” is the sum of all payments to be made on the Note other than payments of<br />

“qualified stated interest”. The WAM of a Note is computed based on the number of full years each distribution<br />

of principal (or other amount included in the stated redemption price at maturity) is scheduled to be outstanding,<br />

rounding down each anticipated distribution of principal to the next lowest number of whole year. The schedule<br />

of such likely distributions should be determined in accordance with the assumed rate of prepayment (the<br />

“Prepayment Assumption”) used in pricing the Notes. The pricing of the Notes was calculated on the<br />

assumption that there will be no prepayments other than scheduled amortisation.<br />

In general, interest on the Notes will constitute “qualified stated interest” only if such interest is<br />

“unconditionally payable” at least annually at a single fixed or qualifying variable rate (or permitted<br />

combination of the foregoing) within the meaning of applicable United States Treasury Department Regulations.<br />

Interest will be considered “unconditionally payable” for these purposes if legal remedies exist to compel timely<br />

payment of such interest or if the Notes contain terms and conditions that make the likelihood of late payment or<br />

non-payment “remote”. Although the conditions of the Notes provide that a holder cannot compel the timely<br />

payment of any interest accrued in respect of the Notes (other than the Class A Notes), unless all more senior<br />

classes of Notes are not outstanding regulations provide that in determining whether interest is unconditionally<br />

payable the possibility of non-payment due to default, insolvency or similar circumstances is ignored.<br />

Accordingly, the Issuer intends to take the position that interest payments on the Notes, other than the Class X<br />

Notes and the Class V Notes, constitute “qualified stated interest”. It is possible that the IRS could take a<br />

contrary position.<br />

Because the Class X Notes consist entirely of interest payments, the Issuer intends to take the position that<br />

such classes do not bear “qualified stated interest” and that all payments thereon will be included in their stated<br />

redemption price at maturity. A United States holder will not be able to deduct any “negative OID” if future<br />

payments are reduced by rapid reduction of the notional amounts of the Class X Notes but will be able to offset<br />

such amounts only against future positive accruals of OID, if any. The Issuer will take the position that the<br />

Class X Notes will not be subject to the rules applicable to contingent payment debt instruments, and United<br />

States holders should consult their tax advisers in this regard. See “—Taxation of the Class V Notes” below.<br />

A United States holder of any class of Notes deemed to bear OID generally would be required to accrue<br />

OID on the Note for United States federal income tax purposes for each day on which the United States holder<br />

holds such instrument. Special rules applicable to debt instruments such as the Notes as to which the repayment<br />

of principal may be accelerated as a result of the prepayment of other obligations securing the debt instruments<br />

provide that the periodic inclusion of OID is determined by taking into account the prepayment assumption used<br />

in pricing the debt instrument and actual prepayment experience. Under these rules, the OID accruing in any<br />

period will likely equal the amount by which (a) the sum of (i) the present value of all remaining distributions to<br />

be made on the Note as of the end of such period plus (ii) the distributions made during such period included in<br />

the Note’s stated redemption price at maturity, exceeds (b) the “adjusted issue price” of the Note as of the<br />

beginning of the period. The present value of the remaining distributions to be made on a Note is calculated<br />

based on (w) the original yield to maturity of such instrument, (x) events (including actual prepayments) that<br />

have occurred prior to the end of the period, (y) the Prepayment Assumption and (z) the value of three-month<br />

LIBOR on the Closing Date. The “adjusted issue price” of a Note at the beginning of any accrual period<br />

generally would be the sum of its issue price and the amount of OID allocable to all prior accrual periods, less<br />

the amount of any payments (other than payments of qualified stated interest) made in all prior accrual periods.<br />

The OID accruing in any period generally will increase if prepayments on the Libra Loan exceed the<br />

Prepayment Assumption and decrease if prepayments are slower than the Prepayment Assumption.<br />

Sourcing: Interest on a Note will constitute foreign source income for United States federal income tax<br />

purposes. Subject to certain limitations, United Kingdom and <strong>Irish</strong> withholding tax, if any, imposed on<br />

payments on the Notes will generally be treated as foreign tax eligible for credit against a United States holder’s<br />

United States federal income tax (unless such tax is refundable under the relevant treaty). For foreign tax credit<br />

purposes, interest will generally be treated as foreign source passive income (or, in the case of certain United<br />

States holders, financial services income).<br />

Foreign Currency Considerations: A United States holder that receives a payment of interest in sterling<br />

with respect to the Notes will be required to include in income the United States dollar value of the amount of<br />

interest income that has accrued and is otherwise required to be taken into account with respect to the Notes<br />

215


during an accrual period. The United States dollar value of such accrued income will be determined by<br />

translating such income at the average rate of exchange for the accrual period or, with respect to an accrual<br />

period that spans two taxable years, at the average rate for the partial period within the relevant taxable year.<br />

Such United States holder will recognise additional exchange gain or loss, treated as ordinary income or loss,<br />

with respect to accrued interest income on the date such income is actually received or the applicable Note is<br />

disposed of. The amount of ordinary income or loss recognised will equal the difference between (i) the United<br />

States dollar value of the sterling payment received (determined at the spot rate on the date such payment is<br />

received or the applicable Note is disposed of) in respect of such accrual period and (ii) the United States dollar<br />

value of interest income that has accrued during such accrual period (determined at the average rate as described<br />

above). A United States holder may elect to translate interest income into United States dollars at the spot rate<br />

on the last day of the interest accrual period (or, in the case of a partial interest period, the spot rate on the last<br />

day of the taxable year) or, if the last day of the interest period is within five business days of the date of receipt,<br />

the spot rate on the date of receipt. A United States holder that makes such an election must apply it<br />

consistently to all debt instruments from year to year and cannot change the election without the consent of the<br />

IRS.<br />

Prepayment Charges and Yield Maintenance Premia<br />

As described herein, certain of the Prepayment Charges and Yield Maintenance Premia actually collected<br />

on the underlying mortgage loan will be paid on the Class V Notes as and to the extent described in this<br />

Offering Circular. It is not entirely clear under the Code when the amount of a Prepayment Charge or Yield<br />

Maintenance Premium should be taxed to a holder of Class V Notes entitled to that amount. For United States<br />

federal income tax reporting purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable authority, the Issuer will report<br />

Prepayment Charges and Yield Maintenance Premia as income to United States holders of Class V Notes only<br />

after the Issuer’s actual receipt of those amounts. The IRS may nevertheless seek to require that an assumed<br />

amount of Prepayment Charges and Yield Maintenance Premia be included in payments projected to be made<br />

on the Class V Notes and that the taxable income be reported based on the projected constant yield to maturity<br />

of the Class V Notes. Therefore, the projected Prepayment Charges and Yield Maintenance Premia would be<br />

included prior to their actual receipt by holders of the Class V Notes. If the projected Prepayment Charges and<br />

Yield Maintenance Premia were not actually received, presumably the holder of a Class V Note would be<br />

allowed to claim a deduction or reduction in gross income at the time the unpaid Prepayment Charges and Yield<br />

Maintenance Premia had been projected to be received. Moreover, it is unclear whether Prepayment Charges<br />

and Yield Maintenance Premia are to be treated as ordinary income or capital gain. Moreover, the foreign<br />

currency translation rate for Prepayment Charges and Yield Maintenance Premia depends on whether it is<br />

accrued upon receipt or accrued over time like interest. See “—Foreign Currency Considerations” above.<br />

Disposition of Notes by United States Holders<br />

General: Upon the sale, exchange or retirement of a Note, a United States holder will recognise taxable<br />

gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realised on the sale, exchange or retirement and the<br />

United States holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Note. For these purposes, the amount realised does not include<br />

any amount attributable to accrued qualified stated interest on the Note (which will be treated as interest as<br />

described under “—Interest Income of United States Holders” above). A United States holder’s adjusted tax<br />

basis in a Note generally will equal the cost of the Note to the United States holder, decreased by any payments<br />

(other than payments of qualified stated interest) received on the Note and increased in the case of a Note<br />

deemed to bear OID by any accrued OID.<br />

In general, except as described below and under “—Taxation of the Class V Notes”, gain or loss realised on<br />

the sale, exchange or retirement of a Note will be capital gain or loss. The distinction between capital gain or<br />

loss and ordinary income or loss is relevant for purposes of, among other things, limitations on the deductibility<br />

of capital losses.<br />

Foreign Currency Considerations: A United States holder’s tax basis in a Note, and the amount of any<br />

subsequent adjustment to such United States holder’s tax basis, will be the United States dollar value of the<br />

sterling amount paid for such Note, or of the sterling amount of the adjustment, determined at the spot rate on<br />

the date of such purchase or adjustment. A United States holder that purchases a Note with previously owned<br />

sterling will recognise ordinary income or loss in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between such United<br />

States holder’s tax basis in the sterling and the United States dollar value of the sterling on the date of purchase.<br />

Gain or loss realised upon the receipt of a principal payment on, or the sale, exchange or retirement of, a<br />

Note that is attributable to fluctuations in currency exchange rates will be treated as ordinary income or loss<br />

216


which will not be treated as interest income or expense. Gain or loss attributable to fluctuations in exchange<br />

rates will equal the difference between (i) the United States dollar value of the applicable sterling principal<br />

amount of such Note, and any payment with respect to accrued interest, translated at the spot rate on the date<br />

such payment is received or such Note is disposed of, and (ii) the United States dollar value of the applicable<br />

sterling principal amount of such Note, on the date such holder acquired such Note, and the United States dollar<br />

amounts previously included in income in respect of the accrued interest received. Such foreign currency gain<br />

or loss will be recognised only to the extent of the total gain or loss realised by a United States holder on the<br />

sale, exchange or retirement of the Note. The source of such sterling gain or loss will be determined by<br />

reference to the residence of the United States holder or the qualified business unit of the United States holder<br />

on whose books the Note is properly reflected.<br />

A United States holder will have a tax basis in any sterling received on the receipt of principal on, or the<br />

sale, exchange or retirement of, a Note equal to the United States dollar value of such sterling, determined at the<br />

time of such receipt, sale, exchange or retirement. Any gain or loss realised by a United States holder on a<br />

subsequent sale or other disposition of sterling (including its exchange for United States dollars) will generally<br />

be ordinary income or loss.<br />

Losses on the Notes<br />

It is likely that the Notes will be treated as a “security” as defined in Section 165(g)(2) of the Code.<br />

Accordingly, any loss with respect to the Notes as a result of one or more realised losses on the Libra Loan will<br />

be treated as a loss from the sale or exchange of a capital asset at that time. In addition, no loss will be<br />

permitted to be recognised until the Notes are wholly worthless.<br />

Each United States holder will be required to accrue interest and any OID with respect to a Note based on<br />

the assumption that no defaults or delinquencies will occur with respect to the Libra Loan. Accordingly,<br />

particularly with respect to the more subordinated Notes, the amount of taxable income reported during the early<br />

years of the term of the Notes may exceed the economic income actually realised by the holder during that<br />

period. Although the United States holder of a Note would eventually recognise a loss or reduction in income<br />

attributable to the previously accrued income that is ultimately not received as a result of such defaults, the law<br />

is unclear with respect to the timing and character of such loss or reduction in income. Moreover, in these<br />

circumstances, the present value of the tax detriment associated with the inclusion of such income early in the<br />

term of the Notes would generally exceed the present value of the subsequent tax benefit associated with such<br />

eventual loss or reduction in income, assuming no changes in prevailing tax rates.<br />

Taxation of the Class V Notes<br />

Although not free from doubt, to the extent that the Class V Notes are treated as debt instruments, it would<br />

appear that the Class V Notes would be subject to the contingent payment debt instrument provisions of the<br />

Treasury regulations (the “CDI regulations”). Under the CDI regulations, the comparable yield, as of the<br />

Closing Date, would be required to be determined for the Class V Notes. Although not entirely clear as to the<br />

Class V Notes, it appears that the comparable yield would generally be the yield at which a fixed rate debt<br />

instrument with terms and conditions similar to the Class V Notes (including the level of subordination, term,<br />

timing of payments and general market conditions) would be issued, not taking into consideration the risk of the<br />

contingencies or the liquidity of the Class V Notes. Further, such a comparable yield could not be less than the<br />

Applicable Federal Rate announced monthly by the IRS. In addition, any gain on the sale, exchange, or<br />

retirement of the Class V Notes would be treated as ordinary income and not capital gain. However, as<br />

mentioned above, this treatment is not free from doubt and it is possible that the IRS could assert, and a court<br />

could ultimately hold, that some other treatment should apply to the Class V Notes. For example, there is a<br />

strong possibility that the Class V Notes could be treated as owning undivided beneficial interests in the Class V<br />

Amounts or could be treated as owning an equity interest in the Issuer. See “—Possible Alternative<br />

Characterisation of the Notes” below. Investors in the Class V Notes should consult their own tax advisers as to<br />

the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Class V Notes.<br />

Possible Alternative Characterisation of the Notes<br />

Although, as described above, the Issuer intends to take the position that the Notes will be treated as debt<br />

for United States federal income tax purposes, such position is not binding on the IRS or the courts and thus no<br />

assurance can be given that such characterisation will prevail. In particular, because of the subordination and<br />

other features of the Class E Notes (and to a lesser extent, each more senior class of Notes) and the fact that the<br />

Class X Notes consist disproportionately of interest payments and the fact that the Class V Notes consist of<br />

217


payments contingent upon the occurrence of certain events, there is a significant possibility that the IRS could<br />

successfully contend that such classes should be treated as an equity interest in the Issuer. The following<br />

discussion sets forth the United States federal income tax treatment of the Notes if they were treated as an equity<br />

interest in the Issuer. United States holders of the Notes, particularly the Class E Notes, the Class X Notes and<br />

the Class V Notes, should consult their own tax advisors as to whether they should report either such class as<br />

equity on their own federal, state or local tax returns.<br />

If the IRS successfully asserted that all or a portion of the Notes should be treated as equity interests in the<br />

Issuer (any such Note, a “Recharacterised Note”), a United States holder of a Recharacterised Note would be<br />

required to include in income (with no dividends received deduction available to corporate United States<br />

holders) payments of “interest” as dividends to the extent of current or accumulated earnings and profits of the<br />

Issuer, as determined for United States federal income tax purposes. “Interest” payments on the Recharacterised<br />

Note, to the extent they exceeded current or accumulated earnings and profits of the Issuer, generally would<br />

reduce the United States holder’s tax basis in the Note and, to the extent they exceeded the United States<br />

holder’s basis, would generate capital gain. “Interest” income derived by a United States holder with respect to<br />

a Recharacterised Note generally would constitute foreign source income that would be treated as passive<br />

income for foreign tax credit purposes. Each United States holder should consult its own tax advisers as to how<br />

it would be required to treat this income for purposes of its particular United States foreign tax credit<br />

calculation.<br />

Gain or loss recognised on any Recharacterised Notes generally would be capital gain or loss. Some or all<br />

of any gain recognised by a United States holder owning at least 10 per cent. of such Notes, either directly or<br />

indirectly under certain constructive ownership rules, might be treated as ordinary income.<br />

Classification of Issuer as Passive Foreign Investment Company<br />

The Issuer will likely be treated as a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for United States<br />

federal income tax purposes. As a result, a United States holder of any Recharacterised Notes might be subject<br />

to potentially adverse United States federal income tax consequences as the holder of an equity interest in a<br />

PFIC. A United States holder of an equity interest in a PFIC that receives an “excess distribution” must allocate<br />

the excess distribution rateably to each day in the holder’s holding period for the stock and must pay a “deferred<br />

tax amount” with respect to each prior year in the holding period. The total excess distribution for any taxable<br />

year is the excess of (a) the total distributions for the year over (b) 125 per cent. of the average amount received<br />

in respect of such equity interest by the United States holder during the three preceding years. In addition, any<br />

gain recognised on the sale, retirement or other taxable disposition of such Notes would be recharacterised as<br />

ordinary income and would further be treated as having been recognised pro rata over such United States<br />

holder’s entire holding period. The amount of gain treated as having been recognised in prior taxable years<br />

would be subject to tax at the highest tax rate in effect for such years, with interest thereon calculated by<br />

reference to the interest rate generally applicable to underpayments with respect to tax liabilities from such prior<br />

taxable years. Moreover, a transfer by gift or a pledge of the Notes could cause a United States holder to<br />

recognise taxable income. Also, if any class of Notes were treated (in whole or in part) as equity interests in a<br />

PFIC, an individual United States holder of such class would not get a step-up in tax basis to the fair market<br />

value of such Note upon the holder’s death.<br />

In general, United States shareholders of a PFIC can mitigate any adverse tax consequences of the PFIC<br />

rules by filing an election to treat the PFIC as a qualified electing fund (“QEF”) if the PFIC complies with<br />

certain reporting requirements. However, the Issuer does not intend to comply with such reporting requirements<br />

necessary to permit United States holders to elect to treat the Issuer as a QEF.<br />

A United States holder that holds “marketable stock” in a PFIC might, in lieu of making a QEF election,<br />

also avoid certain unfavourable consequences of the PFIC rules by electing to mark the Recharacterised Notes<br />

to market as of the close of each taxable year. A United States holder that made the mark-to-market election<br />

would be required to include in income each year as ordinary income an amount equal to the excess, if any, of<br />

the fair market value of the Recharacterised Notes at the close of the year over the United States holder’s<br />

adjusted tax basis in the Recharacterised Notes. For this purpose, a United States holder’s adjusted basis<br />

generally would be the United States holder’s cost for the Recharacterised Notes, increased by the amount<br />

previously included in the United States holder’s income pursuant to this mark-to-market election and decreased<br />

by any amount previously allowed to the United States holder as a deduction pursuant to such election (as<br />

described below). If, at the close of the year, the United States holder’s adjusted tax basis exceeded the fair<br />

market value of the Recharacterised Note, then the United States holder could deduct any such excess from<br />

ordinary income, but only to the extent of net mark-to-market gains on such Recharacterised Notes previously<br />

218


included in income. Any gain from the actual sale of the Recharacterised Notes would be treated as ordinary<br />

income, and to the extent of net mark-to-market gains previously included in income any loss would be treated<br />

as ordinary loss. Recharacterised Notes would be considered “marketable stock” in a PFIC for these purposes<br />

only if they were regularly traded on an exchange which the IRS determines has rules adequate for these<br />

purposes. Application has been made to the Financial Regulator in Ireland, as competent authority under the<br />

Prospectus Directive, for the Prospectus to be approved. Application has been made to the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong><br />

for the Notes to be admitted to the Official List and to trading on its regulated market. However, there can be no<br />

assurance that the Notes will be listed on the Official List of the <strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong>, that they will be<br />

“regularly traded” or that such exchange would be considered a qualified exchange for these purposes.<br />

Depending on the percentage of deemed equity interests of the Issuer held by United States holders, it is<br />

possible that the Issuer might be treated as a “controlled foreign corporation” or “foreign personal holding<br />

company” for United States federal income tax purposes. In such event, United States holders of<br />

Recharacterised Notes might be required to include in income their pro rata shares of the earnings and profits of<br />

the Issuer, and generally would not be subject to the rules described above relating to PFICs. Prospective<br />

investors should consult with their tax advisers concerning the potential effect of the controlled foreign<br />

corporation and foreign personal holding company provisions.<br />

Information Reporting Requirements<br />

The Treasury Department has issued final regulations with regard to reporting requirements relating to the<br />

transfer of property (including certain transfers of cash) to a foreign corporation by United States persons or<br />

entities. In general, these rules may require United States holders who acquire Notes that are characterised (in<br />

whole or in part) as equity of the Issuer to file a Form 926 with the IRS and to supply certain additional<br />

information to the IRS. In the event a United States holder fails to file any such required form the United States<br />

holder could be subject to a penalty equal to 10 per cent. of the gross amount paid for the Notes.<br />

Non-United States Holders<br />

Interest paid (or accrued) to a non-United States holder will not be subject to withholding of United States<br />

federal income tax.<br />

If the interest, gain or income on a Note held by a Non-United States holder is effectively connected with<br />

the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, the holder may be subject to United States federal income<br />

tax on the interest, gain or income at regular income tax rates.<br />

Any capital gain realised on the sale, exchange or retirement of a Note by a non-United States holder will<br />

be exempt from United States federal income and withholding tax provided that (i) such gain is not attributable<br />

to an office or other fixed place of business the non-United States holder maintains in the United States and (ii)<br />

in the case of a non-United States holder who is a natural person, the non-United States holder is not present in<br />

the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year and certain other conditions are met.<br />

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting<br />

Information reporting to the IRS generally will be required with respect to payments of principal or interest<br />

(including any OID) or to distributions on the Notes and to proceeds of the sale of the Notes that, in each case,<br />

are paid by a United States payer or intermediary to United States holders other than corporations and other<br />

exempt recipients. A 28 per cent. (increasing to 31 per cent. after 2010) “backup” withholding tax will apply to<br />

those payments if such United States holder fails to provide certain identifying information (such as such<br />

holder’s taxpayer identification number) to such payer or intermediary or such holder is notified by the IRS it<br />

has failed to report all interest and dividends required to be shown on its United States federal income tax<br />

returns. Holders may be required to comply with applicable certification procedures to establish that they are<br />

not United States holders in order to avoid the application of such information reporting requirements and<br />

backup withholding. Backup withholding tax is not an additional tax and generally may be credited against a<br />

holder’s United States federal income tax liability provided that such holder provides the necessary information<br />

to the IRS.<br />

219


U.S. ERISA CONSIDERATIONS<br />

The United States Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), imposes<br />

requirements on employee benefit plans (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) subject to ERISA and on entities,<br />

such as collective investment funds and separate accounts whose underlying assets include the assets of such<br />

plans (all of which are hereinafter referred to as “ERISA Plans”), and on persons who are fiduciaries (as<br />

defined in Section 3(21) of ERISA) with respect to such ERISA Plans. Section 4975 of the Code also imposes<br />

certain requirements on ERISA Plans and on other retirement plans and arrangements, including individual<br />

retirement accounts and Keogh plans (such ERISA Plans and other plans and arrangements are hereinafter<br />

referred to as “Plans”). Certain employee benefit plans, including governmental plans (as defined in Section<br />

3(32) of ERISA) and certain church plans (as defined in Section 3(33) of ERISA), generally are not subject to<br />

the requirements of ERISA. However, such plans may be subject to the provisions of other applicable law<br />

materially similar (“Similar Law”) to the provisions of ERISA and the Code discussed in this section.<br />

Investments by ERISA Plans are subject to ERISA’s general fiduciary requirements, including the<br />

requirement of investment prudence and diversification, requirements respecting delegation of investment<br />

authority and the requirement that an ERISA Plan’s investments be made in accordance with the documents<br />

governing the ERISA Plan. Each ERISA Plan fiduciary, before deciding to invest in the Notes, must be<br />

satisfied that investment in the Notes is a prudent investment for the ERISA Plan, that the investments of the<br />

ERISA Plan, including the investment in the Notes, are diversified so as to minimise the risk of large losses and<br />

that an investment in the Notes complies with the ERISA Plan and related trust documents.<br />

Section 406 of ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code prohibits Plans from engaging in certain<br />

transactions with persons that are “parties in interest” under ERISA or “disqualified persons” under the Code<br />

with respect to such Plans (collectively, “Parties in Interest”). The types of transactions between Plans and<br />

Parties in Interest that are prohibited include: (a) sales, exchanges or leases of property, (b) loans or other<br />

extensions of credit and (c) the furnishing of goods and services. Certain Parties in Interest that participate in a<br />

non-exempt prohibited transaction may be subject to an excise tax under ERISA or the Code. In addition, the<br />

persons involved in the prohibited transaction may have to rescind the transaction and pay an amount to the Plan<br />

for any losses realised by the Plan or profits realised by such persons and certain other liabilities could result<br />

that have a significant adverse effect on such persons.<br />

Certain transactions involving the purchase, holding or transfer of the Notes might be deemed to constitute<br />

prohibited transactions under ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code if assets of the Issuer were deemed to be<br />

assets of a Plan. Under regulations issued by the United States Department of Labor, set forth in 29 C.F.R. §<br />

2510.3-101 (the “Plan Asset Regulations”), the assets of the Issuer would be treated as plan assets of a Plan for<br />

the purposes of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code only if the Plan acquires an equity interest in the Issuer<br />

and none of the exceptions contained in the Plan Asset Regulations is applicable. An equity interest is defined<br />

under the Plan Asset Regulations as an interest in an entity other than an instrument which is treated as<br />

indebtedness under applicable local law and which has no substantial equity features. Although there is no<br />

authority directly on point, it is anticipated that the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and<br />

Class D Notes should be treated as indebtedness under local law without any substantial equity features for<br />

purposes of the Plan Asset Regulations. This determination is based, among other factors, on the ratings of the<br />

Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes, the unconditional obligation of the<br />

Issuer to pay interest and to repay principal with respect to such Notes, the creditors’ remedies available to the<br />

Note Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders and the treatment of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class<br />

C Notes and the Class D Notes, as indebtedness for U.S. federal income tax purposes. By contrast the Class E<br />

Notes, the Class V Notes and the Class X Notes may be treated as “equity interests” for purposes of the Plan<br />

Asset Regulations. Accordingly, the Class E Notes, the Class V Notes and the Class X Notes may not be<br />

purchased by or transferred to a Plan that is subject to the provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or<br />

applicable Similar Law.<br />

However, without regard to whether the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class<br />

D Notes are treated as an equity interest for such purposes, the acquisition or holding of the Class A Notes,<br />

Class B Notes, Class C Notes or Class D Notes by or on behalf of a Plan could be considered to give rise to a<br />

prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code if the Issuer, the Manager, the Note Trustee or<br />

any of their respective affiliates is or becomes a Party in Interest with respect to such Plan. However, certain<br />

exemptions from the prohibited transaction rules could be applicable depending on the type and circumstances<br />

of the fiduciary making the decision to acquire the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the<br />

Class D Notes. Included among these exemptions are Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 84-<br />

14, which exempts certain transactions effected on behalf of a Plan by a “qualified professional asset manager”,<br />

220


PTCE 96-23, which exempts certain transactions effected on behalf of a Plan by an “in-house asset manager”,<br />

PTCE 90-1, which exempts certain transactions between insurance company separate accounts and Parties in<br />

Interest, PTCE 91-38, which exempts certain transactions between bank collective investment funds and Parties<br />

in Interest and PTCE 95-60, which exempts certain transactions between insurance company general accounts<br />

and Parties in Interest (collectively, the “Investor Based Exemptions”). In addition, the U.S. Pension<br />

Protection Act of 2006 provides a statutory exemption (the “Statutory Exemption” and, collectively with the<br />

Investor Based Exemptions, the “Exemptions”) for prohibited transactions between a Plan and a party in<br />

interest (other than a fiduciary or an affiliate that has or exercises discretionary authority or control or renders<br />

investment advice with respect to the assets involved in the transaction), provided that there is adequate<br />

consideration for the transaction. Even if the conditions specified in one or more of these Exemptions are met,<br />

the scope of the relief provided by such Exemptions might or might not cover all acts which might be construed<br />

as prohibited transactions.<br />

A Plan generally should not purchase the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes or the Class<br />

D Notes, if the Issuer, the Manager, the Loan Seller, the Note Trustee, the Servicers, the Servicer, the Special<br />

Servicer, the Note Trustee, the Paying Agents, the Cash Managers, the Operating Bank, the Agent Bank, the<br />

Swap Provider, the Advance Provider, Backup Advance Provider or any of their respective affiliates either (a)<br />

has investment discretion with respect to the investment of assets of such Plan; (b) has authority or<br />

responsibility to give or regularly gives investment advice with respect to assets of such Plan, for a fee, and<br />

pursuant to an agreement or understanding that such advice will serve as a primary basis for investment<br />

decisions with respect to such assets and that such advice will be based on the particular investment needs of<br />

such Plan; or (c) is an employer maintaining or contributing to such Plan. A party that is described in clause (a)<br />

or (b) of the preceding sentence is a fiduciary under ERISA with respect to the Plan and any such purchase<br />

might result in a “prohibited transaction” under ERISA or the Code for which no exemption is available.<br />

An insurance company proposing to invest assets of its general account in the Notes should consider the<br />

extent to which such investment would be subject to ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code. On 5 January 2000,<br />

the United States Department of Labor issued a final regulation which provides guidance for determining, in<br />

cases where insurance policies supported by an insurer’s general account are issued to or for the benefit of a<br />

Plan on or before 31 December 1998, which general account assets are plan assets. That regulation generally<br />

provides that, if certain specified requirements are satisfied with respect to insurance policies issued on or before<br />

31 December 1998, the assets of an insurance company general account will not be plan assets. Nevertheless,<br />

certain assets of an insurance company general account may be considered to be plan assets. Therefore, if an<br />

insurance company acquires Notes using assets of its general account, certain of the insurance company’s assets<br />

may be plan assets and the provisions of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code could apply to such acquisition<br />

and the subsequent holding of the Notes. An insurance company using assets of its general account may not<br />

acquire the Class E Notes, the Class V Notes or the Class X Notes if any of such general account assets are<br />

considered to be plan assets.<br />

The sale of any Class A Notes, Class B Notes, Class C Notes and Class D Notes to a Plan is in no respect a<br />

representation by the Issuer, the Manager or the Note Trustee that such an investment meets all relevant legal<br />

requirements with respect to investments by Plans generally or any particular Plan, or that such an investment is<br />

appropriate for Plans generally or any particular Plan.<br />

Each purchaser of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes will be<br />

deemed to have represented and agreed that (i) either it is not purchasing such Notes with the assets of any Plan<br />

or that one of more exemptions applies such that the use of such assets will not constitute a non-exempt<br />

prohibited transaction under ERISA or the Code (or, in the case of a governmental plan or a church plan, a<br />

violation of a Similar Law), and (ii) with respect to transfers, it will either not transfer such Notes to a transferee<br />

purchasing such Notes with the assets of any Plan (or, in the case of a governmental plan or a church plan<br />

subject to Similar Law), or one or more exemptions (or similar relief under Similar Law) applies such that the<br />

use of such assets will not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction. Any Plan fiduciary that proposes to<br />

cause a Plan to purchase such instruments should consult with its counsel with respect to the potential<br />

applicability of ERISA and the Code and Similar Law to such investment and whether any exemption or<br />

exemptions have been satisfied. The Class E Notes, Class V Notes and Class X Notes may not be purchased by<br />

or transferred to a Plan that is subject to the provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a governmental<br />

or church plan subject to Similar Law.<br />

221


LEGAL INVESTMENT<br />

The Notes will not constitute “mortgage related securities” for purposes of the Secondary Mortgage Market<br />

Enhancement Act of 1984, as amended (“SMMEA”). The appropriate characterisation of the Notes under<br />

various legal investment restrictions, and thus the ability of investors subject to these restrictions to purchase the<br />

Notes, is subject to significant interpretive uncertainties.<br />

No representations are made as to the proper characterisation of the Notes for legal investment purposes,<br />

financial institution regulatory, or other purposes, or as to the ability of particular investors to purchase the<br />

Notes under applicable legal investment restrictions. The uncertainties described above (and any unfavourable<br />

future determinations concerning the legal investment or financial institution regulatory characteristics of the<br />

Notes) may adversely affect the liquidity of the Notes.<br />

Accordingly, all institutions whose investment activities are subject to legal investment laws and<br />

regulations, regulatory capital requirements or review by regulatory authorities should consult with their own<br />

legal advisors in determining whether and to what extent the Notes will constitute legal investments for them or<br />

are subject to investment, capital or other restrictions.<br />

(1) The Notes, other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes, will bear interest at 3-month LIBOR plus the margin specified above. The Class X Notes and the<br />

Class V Notes will bear interest at a variable rate of interest, which initially, will be the rates set forth under Condition 5(c)(ii) under “Terms and Conditions of the<br />

Notes” as set out in the Offering Circular.<br />

(2) The “Weighted Average Life” of the period during which distributions of principal would be received on the Notes and the Assumed Final Payment Date of the Notes,<br />

as set out in the Offering Circular are based upon assumptions that there are no prepayments, no defaults, losses, or delinquencies, no accelerations or extensions<br />

of the maturity of the Libra Whole Loan or the Notes, and the Libra Loan is repaid in accordance with the modelling assumptions as set out in the Offering Circular.<br />

(3) The Class X Notes will bear interest at a variable rate generally equal to the excess of the net mortgage rate of the Libra Loan over the weighted average of the rates<br />

of interest of the Classes A through E.<br />

(4) The Class V Notes will entitle the holders thereof to the Class V Amount not otherwise payable to the other classes of Notes. The Class V Notes are paid solely from<br />

amounts standing to the credit of the Class V Account and therefore do not rank against any other classes of Notes with respect to any amounts distributable from<br />

the Collection Account to such classes.<br />

For further details, please see the Offering Circular.<br />

“Available Funds” will primarily consist of collections of principal and interest on the Libra Loan net of amounts used<br />

to pay certain senior expenses of the Issuer and certain other amounts. Available Funds will be allocated<br />

sequentially to pay interest and principal on each class of Notes beginning with Class A (other than principal on the<br />

Class X Notes and other than principal and interest on the Class V Notes); however, until certain triggers (the<br />

“Sequential Triggers”) are met, certain prepayments and the balloon payment for the Libra Loan will be allocated pro<br />

rata among certain classes of Notes (other than the Class X and the Class V Notes) in accordance with their then<br />

outstanding principal balances, to pay principal on the Notes.<br />

Sequential Triggers are as follows: (i) the existence of a material loan event of default relating to the Libra Whole<br />

Loan; (ii) NAI Amounts have been allocated to any class of Notes since the Closing Date due to realised losses on<br />

the Libra Loan, or there has been failure to pay interest when due on any Note, subject to certain exceptions; (iii) the<br />

aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Notes (other than the Class X Notes and Class V Notes) is less than<br />

or equal to 50% of the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the Notes (other than the Class X Notes and the<br />

Class V Notes) as at the Closing Date or (iv) a Note Event of Default has been declared and is outstanding.<br />

If, on any Payment Date, the aggregate principal balance of the Notes exceeds the aggregate principal balance of<br />

the Libra Loan, the principal amount of Notes equal to such excess (“NAI”) will cease to accrue interest. NAI will be<br />

allocated to the classes of Notes in reverse sequential order, beginning with the most junior class of Notes (other<br />

than the Class X and Class V Notes) then outstanding. Principal which ceases to accrue interest will remain<br />

outstanding and will be repaid in accordance with the priority of payments.<br />

The Servicer will advance delinquent scheduled principal and interest, senior expenses and certain property<br />

expenses, subject to a recoverability determination. ABN AMRO Bank N.V. will act as Backup Advance Provider,<br />

also subject to a recoverability determination.<br />

<strong>Titan</strong> <strong>Europe</strong> <strong>2007</strong>-1 (<strong>NHP</strong>) <strong>Limited</strong> (the “Issuer”) will acquire the Libra Loan, secured by mortgages over<br />

297 properties located in the UK.<br />

(a) an assignment by way of first-ranking security over the Issuer’s rights under the Libra Loan (subject<br />

to the Subordinated Lenders’ rights therein) and the Loan Documents and an assignment by way of<br />

(c) a first-ranking charge over the Issuer’s interests in the Issuer Accounts (other than the Class X<br />

Account and the Class V Account) and certain other accounts of the Issuer, and in the funds from<br />

time to time standing to the credit of such accounts (other than the Class V Amounts) and in the<br />

the extent such amounts represent Class V Amounts) and the benefit of all covenants relating thereto<br />

and all rights and remedies for enforcing the same; and<br />

(e)<br />

a first-ranking floating charge governed by English law over the whole of the undertaking and assets<br />

of the Issuer (other than such undertakings and assets as are situated in Jersey), present and future<br />

For further details, please see the Offering Circular<br />

Interest Rate Hedging:<br />

Controlling Class:<br />

Controlling Class Representative:<br />

Controlling Party:<br />

The Libra Loan and Libra Whole Loan each accrue interest at a floating rate. The floating rate on the Libra<br />

Whole Loan is hedged through an interest rate swap agreement entered into by the borrower, pursuant to<br />

which the Borrower will swap the interest rate payable on the Libra Whole Loan for LIBOR fixed on the 15 th<br />

of each January, April, July and October or, if such day is not a Business Day, then on the next succeeding<br />

Business Day in that calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not).<br />

In addition, the Issuer will enter into a basis swap transaction with the Swap Provider with respect to the<br />

Libra Loan, by which the Issuer will swap LIBOR as calculated on the reset date for amounts payable<br />

under the Libra Loan, for LIBOR as calculated on the reset date for amounts payable in respect of the<br />

Notes. As the basis swap transaction is balance guaranteed no costs will be incurred in terminating the<br />

swap.<br />

The “Controlling Class” of Notes will be the most junior class of Notes (other than the Class X Notes or the<br />

Class V Notes) outstanding from time to time; provided, however, that such class of Notes’ Proportion Ratio<br />

is not less than 25 per cent. of its Proportion Ratio as of the Closing Date, as determined by the Cash<br />

Manager. If no class satisfies this requirement, the Controlling Class will be the most junior class of Notes<br />

then outstanding (other than the Class X Notes and the Class V Notes). The Note Trustee shall determine<br />

which class of Notes meets the Controlling Class Test and shall notify the Servicer and Special Servicer<br />

accordingly.<br />

The conditions of the Notes and the servicing agreement to be entered into on or about the Closing Date,<br />

will permit the majority holders of the Controlling Class to appoint a representative to represent the<br />

interests of the Controlling Class, with such appointment effective upon notice to the Servicer, the Special<br />

Servicer, the Issuer and the Note Trustee.<br />

The “Controlling Party” means (i) for as long as no Control Valuation Event is continuing, the<br />

Representative for the B4 Loan; (ii) for as long as a Control Valuation Event for the B4 Loan (a “B4 Loan<br />

Control Valuation Event”), but no other Control Valuation Event, is continuing, the Representative for the<br />

B3 Loan; (iii) for as long as a B4 Loan Control Valuation Event and a Control Valuation Event for the B3<br />

Loan (a “B3 Loan Control Valuation Event”), but no other Control Valuation Event, are continuing, the<br />

Representative for the B2 Loan; (iv) for as long as a B4 Loan Control Valuation Event, a B3 Loan Control<br />

(1) Based on the Cut-Off Date Securitised Principal Balance or Cut-Off Date Whole Loan Principal Balance divided by the Value as set forth in the Valuation Report.<br />

(2) “U/W ICR” and “U/W DSCR” mean, with respect to the Securitised Loan and Whole Loan (i) U/W NOI divided by (ii) scheduled total interest (in the case of Cut-Off Date U/W ICR) or debt service (in the case of Cut-Off Date U/W DSCR) due on the Cut-Off Date Securitised Loan or Cut-Off<br />

Date Whole Loan, respectively, for the first four quarterly payment dates after the Cut-Off Date. For the purposes of calculations in this document, LIBOR is assumed to be 4.8130%, which is equivalent to the fixed rate payable by the Borrower under the related Swap Transactions.<br />

(3) “Whole Loan” means the relevant Securitised Principal Balance plus Secured Subordinate Debt, if any.<br />

(4) With respect to the Libra Whole Loan, the U/W ICR and U/W DSCR are calculated after taking into account amounts on deposit in the Cash Reserve Account in order to comply with the minimum Interest Cover covenant of 1.05x (and resulting in a Libra Whole Loan U/W DSCR of 1.00x<br />

based on no principal repayment). Excluding the benefit of the Cash Reserve Account, the Libra Whole Loan U/W ICR is 0.89x and the Libra Whole Loan U/W DSCR is 0.89x. For the purposes of calculations in this document, LIBOR is assumed to be 4.8130%, which is equivalent to the<br />

fixed rate payable by the Borrower under the related Swap Transactions.<br />

(5) The Libra Loan and Libra Whole Loan each accrue interest at a floating rate. The floating rate on the Libra Whole Loan is hedged through an interest rate swap agreement entered into by the borrower, pursuant to which the borrower will swap a portion of the interest rate payable on the<br />

Libra Whole Loan for LIBOR fixed on the 15 th of each January, April, July and October or, if such day is not a Business Day, then on the next succeeding Business Day in that calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not).<br />

(6) Assumes that Borrower does not exercise the one-year Libra Whole Loan extension option.<br />

in the related Valuation Report.<br />

(13) Calculated based on U/W NOI, divided by (i) total interest (in the case of Cut-Off Date Securitised or Whole Loan U/W ICR) or (ii) aggregate debt service (in the case of Cut-Off Date<br />

Securitised Loan or Whole Loan U/W DSCR) payable under the Libra Loan for the first four quarterly payment dates after the Cut-Off Date. For the purposes of calculations in this<br />

document, LIBOR is assumed to be 4.8130%, which is equivalent to the fixed rate payable by the Borrower under the related Swap Transactions.<br />

(14) With respect to the Libra Whole Loan, the U/W ICR and U/W DSCR are calculated after taking into account amounts on deposit in the Cash Reserve Account in order to comply with<br />

the minimum Interest Cover covenant of 1.05x (and resulting in a Libra Whole Loan U/W DSCR of 1.00x based on no principal repayment). Excluding the benefit of the Cash<br />

Reserve Account, the Libra Whole Loan U/W ICR is 0.89x and the Libra Whole Loan U/W DSCR is 0.89x. For the purposes of calculations in this document, LIBOR is assumed to be<br />

Libra Loan<br />

• LOAN PURPOSE:<br />

Summary<br />

– Refinancing a healthcare portfolio located throughout the UK: England (72.1% of aggregate market value),<br />

Scotland (17.9% of aggregate market value), Wales (6.8% of aggregate market value) and Northern Ireland<br />

(3.2% of aggregate market value).<br />

• PROPERTIES:<br />

– The portfolio comprises 294 care homes (including two parcels of land adjacent to two care homes) and three<br />

properties providing staff accommodation.<br />

– The majority of care homes in the portfolio (209) were constructed since the 1990s. 235 care homes, including<br />

three properties related to staff accommodation, are purpose-built. The remainder of the care homes includes<br />

38 conversions and 24 part new-build/part conversions.<br />

– The three properties comprising staff accommodation are in the locality of three other care homes and are<br />

three- to five-bedroom houses built between 1974 and 2004.<br />

– The care homes range in size from three- to 150-beds with an average of circa 50 beds. The portfolio<br />

comprises a total of 14,796 registered beds (including 12 beds relating to the staff accommodation), 92.5% of<br />

which are arranged in single rooms and 71.4% of the total number of rooms benefit from ensuite facilities.<br />

• TENANCIES:<br />

– 297 Fully Repairing and Insuring (“FRI”) leases with a weighted average remaining lease term of 20.5 years<br />

(to first break or expiry). There is an agreement in place in respect of 287 Properties such that at expiry of the<br />

relevant lease, such Occupational Lease will be extended to 29 May 2041.<br />

– Portfolio is 5.6% under rented. Rent review provisions across the portfolio fall into three categories: (i) annual<br />

2.5% uplift (281 Properties, 94.3% of Annualised Base Rent); (ii) turnover-based rent in addition to an annual<br />

base rent (7 Properties, 3.9% of Annualised Base Rent) and (iii) RPI-based (6 Properties, 1.9% of Annualised<br />

Base Rent), excluding the three staff accommodation properties.<br />

– Southern Cross Healthcare Group PLC (“Southern Cross”) is the largest tenant operator group, accounting for<br />

86.5% of the Annualised Base Rent of the portfolio. Southern Cross is the UK’s largest provider of care home<br />

services for the elderly (with circa 6% of market share). The Southern Cross leases have an unexpired term of<br />

circa 21.1 years (no break option) and are generally subject to fixed annual uplifts of 2.5%.<br />

– A petition has been presented at Court in Edinburgh by HM Revenue & Customs for the winding up of<br />

Britannia Healthcare <strong>Limited</strong>, including an application for appointment of a liquidator. Britannia Healthcare<br />

<strong>Limited</strong> guarantees the leases of its affiliate (Britannia Leased Homes <strong>Limited</strong> (“BLHL”)) which operates six<br />

freehold Properties in the portfolio, representing in aggregate 1.9% of Annualised Base Rent. At the date of<br />

this document, there is no further information on the status of the petition, other than that it has been<br />

presented, and no order to wind up has been granted (or dismissed) by the Court. The Managing Director of<br />

Britannia Healthcare <strong>Limited</strong> has made a certified statement, confirming that the amount due to HM Revenue<br />

& Customs (of £51,408.14) has been paid in full in settlement thereof to HM Revenue & Customs.<br />

Notwithstanding the above, in the event of a winding up order and appointment of a liquidator relating to<br />

Britannia Healthcare <strong>Limited</strong>, the relevant landlord may commence forfeiture proceedings against the relevant<br />

tenant, BLHL. If the landlord regains possession of the property it may re-let the Properties to another tenant.<br />

• RESERVES:<br />

– Upfront cash reserve of £17,476,993.61 (as of 26 th April <strong>2007</strong>) available to cover interest shortfalls and satisfy<br />

the minimum ICR covenant of 1.05x (and resulting in a Libra Whole Loan U/W DSCR of 1.00x based on no<br />

principal repayment).<br />

– In order to exercise the Libra Whole Loan extension option at the end of the second year of the loan term, the<br />

Operator Group Overview<br />

Southern Cross Healthcare Group PLC<br />

Overview<br />

Southern Cross Healthcare Group PLC (“Southern Cross”) is the largest provider of care home services for the elderly (by number of<br />

beds) and a major provider of specialist services for people with physical and/or learning disabilities throughout the United Kingdom,<br />

with circa 6% of market share.<br />

The group's care homes for the elderly operate under two distinct brands: Southern Cross Healthcare and Ashbourne Senior Living,<br />

both of which provide homes with a broad range of residential personal services and nursing care services for elderly people with<br />

physical frailties and differing forms of dementia.<br />

−<br />

−<br />

Southern Cross Healthcare is a brand focused on local authority-funded residents. Ashbourne Senior Living, a developing brand,<br />

focuses on self-funding residents. Currently, the group is re-branding some care homes as Ashbourne Senior Living facilities.<br />

The group's specialist services operate under the Active Care Partnerships brand and provide long-term care services for people<br />

with physical and/or learning disabilities and younger people with complex forms of challenging behaviour.<br />

As of 1 October 2006, the group's average occupancy rate was 91.0%.<br />

The key aspects of Southern Cross’ proposed business model are to:<br />

−<br />

−<br />

−<br />

Continue acquiring and developing modern, purpose-built care homes in areas of high demand with a plan to add circa 1,000 beds<br />

to the group portfolio by December <strong>2007</strong>;<br />

Maintain commitment to the long-term care market, focusing on growth in both core and specialist care divisions; and<br />

Utilise its core sale and leaseback financing strategy to fund continued growth.<br />

History<br />

Southern Cross was incorporated in 1996 and has grown significantly through an aggressive acquisition and consolidation strategy,<br />

making it a leading consolidator in the UK care home sector in terms of acquired beds. Since 2001, the group has acquired nine<br />

portfolios of care homes and specialised accommodation, growing from 5,966 beds (March 2002) to 28,917 beds (October 2006). The<br />

majority of this growth has been achieved through two large corporate acquisitions: (1) Highfield (late March 2005; 186 care homes and<br />

circa 8,000 beds), and (2) Ashbourne (November 2005; 193 elderly homes and over 10,000 beds).<br />

In July 2006, the group was listed on the London <strong>Stock</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong>, raising circa £175.0 million, and entered the FTSE 250 index in<br />

September 2006.<br />

A typical care home in the company’s elderly operations has circa 50 beds and offers 24-hour care services. Each home has catering<br />

and housekeeping staff, an administrator, residents’ activities co-ordinator and handyman. For care homes providing nursing services,<br />

there is professional staffing (including nurses). The group is subject to regulation with respect to staffing levels and the physical quality<br />

of its care homes across the three brands.<br />

The Southern Cross Healthcare and Ashbourne Senior Living brands provide three types of facilities: residential homes, nursing homes<br />

and dual homes (focusing predominantly on provision of services to elderly couples). Active Care Partnerships provides a range of<br />

residential, nursing and supported living services across the United Kingdom.<br />

−<br />

−<br />

−<br />

The majority of Southern Cross Healthcare homes are purpose-built with dining and lounge facilities on sites. Each home has on<br />

average 55 beds (predominantly single ensuite rooms), and is typically a two-storey construction.<br />

Ashbourne Senior Living operates 72 care homes with on average 55 beds per home.<br />

The group operates 42 specialist care homes under the Active Care Partnerships brand for people with learning and/or physical<br />

disabilities. The specialist homes typically have shared communal areas and provide each resident with a single ensuite bedroom.<br />

Active Care Partnerships homes have on average 21 beds per home.<br />

Resident Profile<br />

Southern Cross Healthcare homes target primarily high-dependency residents with specific nursing or social care needs, and the<br />

average stay for this customer group is estimated at circa 11 months, with average occupancy of approximately 93%.<br />

The Ashbourne Senior Living brand caters for elderly self-funding customers who may require additional services and a higher<br />

accommodation standard.<br />

Residents within the Active Care Partnerships brand are suffering physical and/or learning disabilities. In addition, residents of the<br />

<strong>Stock</strong>sbridge Neuro Rehabilitation Centre have sustained brain injuries and Abbeydale Court Nursing Home provides mental health<br />

facilities. The age and the length of stay of the Active Care Partnerships residents vary according to patients’ individual needs and<br />

preferences.<br />

Funding<br />

As of 1 October 2006, the average weekly fee rate for residents of the group’s care homes was £478, and weekly revenues on a per<br />

bed basis were circa £455, £524 and £873 for Southern Cross Healthcare, Ashbourne Senior Living and Active Care Partnerships<br />

Market Overview<br />

Industry Structure<br />

The care home market in the UK consists of residential and nursing homes, mainly providing long-term care for older people who are<br />

physically dependent and/or suffering from forms of dementia. There are two main types of care homes: (1) residential home<br />

conversions and (2) purpose-built care home facilities.<br />

The market is relatively mature and transparent and the industry consists of different categories of participants, including owneroperators,<br />

lessee-operators and owner-investors. Laing and Buisson estimated the size of the UK care home market (measured in<br />

terms of registered beds) to be approximately 468,000 in April 2006.<br />

The care home sector remains fragmented albeit with a trend towards consolidation. King Sturge LLP estimate that the top ten UK<br />

providers operated circa 22.0% of the total beds available as of November 2006 (Source: King Sturge LLP Valuation Report). Southern<br />

Cross is the largest provider, representing only 6% of market share.<br />

Supply of Care Home Beds<br />

Between 1989 and 1996, the total bed spaces for nursing, residential and long stay hospital care for the elderly, chronically ill and<br />

physically disabled increased from circa 465,000 to circa 571,300 beds (see below). Consequent oversupply and local authority fee<br />

adjustments below inflation reduced occupancy and profitability levels for operators. Therefore, the supply of care home beds in the UK<br />

has fallen gradually since the late-1990s.<br />

Bed Capacity (1988-2006)<br />

Source: Laing and Buisson UK Market Survey 2006<br />

From 1996 through 2006, the number of beds in the market has decreased from a peak of 571,300 beds in 1996 to 468,000 in April<br />

2006 (Source: Laing and Buisson). However, there are some indications of a changing trend in the care homes market and over a oneyear<br />

period, the closure rate for homes reduced from circa 711 homes (12,714 beds) as of April 2005 to approximately 323 homes<br />

(7,461 beds) as of April 2006.<br />

The decrease in capacity is more marked in the public sector than in the private sector. In the latter, the decline of bed capacity is more<br />

apparent in converted homes as a result of more stringent regulatory controls and requirements as well as the boom in the residential<br />

property market.<br />

Forecast Numbers of Ageing People and Demand for Care Home Beds<br />

The trend in the UK demographic profile has been towards a more elderly population. King Sturge LLP report that the percentage of the<br />

UK population aged 65 and over has increased from 13% to 16% between 1971 and mid-2005. A similar trend has been observed in<br />

respect of the population aged 85 and over. They project an upward trend due to:<br />

−<br />

−<br />

−<br />

General improvement in life expectancy;<br />

Post-World War I “baby boomer” generation reaching the age of 85 and over;<br />

A significant section of the population, born post-World War I, reaching old age.<br />

UK Population over the age of 65 (1901-2071)<br />

Source: Laing and Buisson UK Market Survey 2006<br />

King Sturge LLP has projected the proportion of the UK’s population aged 85 and over to be circa 5 million (7.1% of the total<br />

population) by 2071 and therefore the ageing population trend is predicted to have implications for the care home industry as a whole.<br />

Over recent years, the demand for care home beds has witnessed a downward trend. King Sturge LLP report that the main reasons for<br />

this trend are (i) constraints on local authority budgets resulting in a policy of placing the elderly in less costly residential settings than<br />

nursing care; (ii) the desire of older people to remain in their own homes as long as possible, and (iii) the government’s preference for<br />

community-based care over residential care. However, Laing and Buisson project that demand across the UK may increase from<br />

421,000 occupied places in 2006 to 445,000 by 2016, mostly due to a reduced supply of public sector care homes.<br />

Occupancy Levels<br />

According to Laing and Buisson, average occupancy levels in the UK care homes sector were over 90.0% in the period from March<br />

2001 until March 2006 and in March 2006 were circa 91.3% and 90.2% for nursing and residential homes respectively.<br />

Projected trends in supply and demand, where falling overall demand (albeit smaller than in recent years) may be matched by<br />

continued withdrawal of capacity, indicate that these high average occupancy levels amongst major providers may be considered to be<br />

sustainable in the future. The table below illustrates occupancy rates for care homes with or without nursing facilities across the UK as<br />

of March 2006.<br />
