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withdrawn entirely by any or all of the Rating Agencies as a result of changes in or unavailability of information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 />
