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 />

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 />
