(b) A notice under sub-paragraph (a) above may be given orally or in writing.

(c) For the purposes of this Agreement a party has a Net Exposure in respect of the other party if the aggregate of all the first party's Transaction Exposures plus any amount payable to the first party under paragraph 5 but unpaid less the amount of any Net Margin provided to the first party exceeds the aggregate of all the other party's Transaction Exposures plus any amount payable to the other party under paragraph 5 but unpaid less the amount of any Net Margin provided to the other party; and the amount of the Net Exposure is the amount of the excess.

(i) that Transaction shall not be taken into account when calculating whether either party has a Net Exposure;

i) margin shall be provided in respect of that Transaction in such manner as the parties may agree; and

(iii) margin provided in respect of that Transaction shall not be taken into account for the purposes of sub-paragraphs (a) to (g) above.

(i) The parties may agree that any Net Exposure which may arise shall be eliminated not by Margin Transfers under the preceding provisions of this paragraph but by the repricing of Transactions under sub-paragraph (j) below, the adjustment of Transactions under sub-paragraph (k) below or a combination of both these methods.

(j) Where the parties agree that a Transaction is to be repriced under this sub-paragraph, such repricing shall be effected as follows -

the Repurchase Date under the relevant Transaction (the "Original Transaction") shall be deemed to occur on the date on which the repricing is to be effected (the "Repricing Date");

(vii) the obligations of the parties with respect to the delivery of the Purchased Securities and the payment of the Purchase Price under the Repriced Transaction shall be set off against their obligations with respect to the delivery of Equivalent Securities and payment of the Repurchase Price under the Original Transaction and accordingly only a net cash sum shall be paid by one party to the other. Such net cash sum shall be paid within the period specified in sub-paragraph (g) above.

October 2000 - 10 -

   

(k) The adjustment of a Transaction (the "Original Transaction") under this sub-paragraph shall be effected by the parties agreeing that on the date on which the adjustment is to be made (the "Adjustment Date") the Original Transaction shall be terminated and they shall enter into a new Transaction (the "Replacement Transaction") in accordance with the following provisions -

the Original Transaction shall be terminated on the Adjustment Date on such terms as the parties shall agree on or before the Adjustment Date;

(ii) the Purchased Securities under the Replacement Transaction shall be such Securities as the parties shall agree on or before the Adjustment Date (being Securities the aggregate Market Value of which at the Adjustment Date is substantially equal to the Repurchase Price under the Original Transaction at the Adjustment Date multiplied by the Margin Ratio applicable to the Original Transaction);

(iii) the Purchase Date under the Replacement Transaction shall be the Adjustment Date;

(iv) the other terms of the Replacement Transaction shall be such as the parties shall agree on or before the Adjustment Date; and

(v) the obligations of the parties with respect to payment and delivery of Securities on the Adjustment Date under the Original Transaction and the Replacement Transaction shall be settled in accordance with paragraph 6 within the minimum period specified in sub-paragraph (g) above.

(ii) where Margin Securities are transferred from one party ("the first party") to the other party ("the second party") and an Income Payment"Date in respect of such Securities occurs before Equivalent Margin Securities are transferred by the second party to the first party, the second party shall on the date such Income is paid by the issuer transfer to or credit to the account of the first party an amount equal to (and in the same currency as) the amount paid by the issuer;

October 2000 - 11 -

   

and for the avoidance of doubt references in this paragraph to the amount of any Income paid by the issuer of any Securities shall be to an amount paid without any withholding or deduction for or on account of taxes or duties notwithstanding that a payment of such Income made in certain circumstances may be subject to such a withholding or deduction.

(a) Unless otherwise agreed, all money paid hereunder shall be in immediately available freely convertible, funds of the relevant currency.

In that event, unless otherwise agreed, the paying party shall pay such additional amounts as will result in the net amounts receivable by the other party (after taking account of such withholding or deduction) being equal to such amounts as would have been received by it had no such taxes or duties been required to be withheld or deducted.

(c) Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the parties, under each Transaction transfer of Purchased Securities by Seller and payment of Purchase Price by Buyer against the transfer of such Purchased Securities shall be made simultaneously and transfer of Equivalent Securities by Buyer and payment of Repurchase Price payable by Seller against the transfer of such Equivalent Securities shall be made simultaneously.

(d) Subject to and without prejudice to the provisions of sub.-paragraph 6(c), either party may from time to time in accordance with market practice and in recognition of the practical difficulties in arranging simultaneous delivery of Securities and money waive in relation to any Transaction its rights under this Agreement to receive simultaneous transfer and/or payment provided that transfer and/or payment shall, notwithstanding such waiver, be made on the same day and provided also that no such waiver in respect of one Transaction shall affect or bind it in respect of any other Transaction.

(e) The parties shall execute and deliver all necessary documents and take all necessary steps to procure that all right, title and interest in any Purchased Securities, any Equivalent Securities, any Margin Securities and any Equivalent Margin Securities shall pass to the party to which transfer is being made upon transfer of the same in accordance with this Agreement, free from all liens, claims, charges and encumbrances.

October 2000 - 12 -

   

(f) Notwithstanding the use of expressions such as "Repurchase Date", "Repurchase Price", "margin", "Net Margin", "Margin Ratio" and "substitution", which are used to reflect terminology used in the market for transactions of the kind provided for in this Agreement, all right, title and interest in and to Securities and money transferred or paid under this Agreement shall pass to the transferee upon transfer or payment, the obligation of the party receiving Purchased Securities or Margin Securities being an obligation to transfer Equivalent Securities or Equivalent Margin Securities.

(g) Time shall be of the essence in this Agreement.

(h) Subject to paragraph 10, all amounts in the same currency payable by each party to the other under any Transaction or otherwise under this Agreement on the same date shall be combined in a single calculation of a net sum payable by one party to the other and the obligation to pay that sum shall be the only obligation of either party in respect of those amounts.

(i) Subject to paragraph 10, all Securities of the same issue, denomination, currency and series, transferable by each party to the other under any Transaction or hereunder on the same date shall be combined in a single calculation of a net quantity of Securities transferable by one party to the other and the obligation to transfer the net quantity of Securities shall be the only obligation of either party in respect of the Securities so transferable and receivable,

0) If the parties have specified in Annex I hereto that this paragraph 6(j) shall apply, each obligation of a party under this Agreement (other than an obligation arising under paragraph 10) is subject to the condition precedent that none of those events specified in paragraph 10(a) which are identified in Annex I hereto for the purposes of this paragraph 6(j) (being events which, upon the serving of a Default Notice, would be an Event of Default with respect to the other party) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the other party.

7. Contractual Currency

(a) All the payments made in respect of the Purchase Price or the Repurchase Price of any Transaction shall be made in the currency of the Purchase Price (the "Contractual Currency") save as provided in paragraph 10(c)(ii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the payee of any money may, at its option, accept tender thereof in any other currency, provided, however, that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the obligation of the payer to pay such money will be discharged only to the extent of the amount of the Contractual Currency that such payee may, consistent with normal banking procedures, purchase with such other currency (after deduction of any premium and costs of exchange) for delivery within the customary delivery period for spot transactions in respect of the relevant currency.

October 2000 - 13 -

   

(b) If for any reason the amount in the Contractual Currency received by a party, including amounts received after conversion of any recovery under any judgment or order expressed in a currency other than the Contractual Currency, falls short of the amount in the Contractual Currency due and payable, the party required to make the payment will, as a separate and independent obligation, to the extent permitted by applicable law, immediately transfer such additional amount in the Contractual Currency as may be necessary to compensate for the shortfall.

(c) If for any reason the amount in the Contractual Currency received by a party exceeds the amount of the Contractual Currency due and payable, the party receiving the transfer will refund promptly the amount of such excess.

8. Substitution

(a) A Transaction may at any time between the Purchase Date and Repurchase Date, if Seller so requests and Buyer so agrees, be varied by the transfer by Buyer to Seller of Securities equivalent to the Purchased Securities, or to such of the Purchased Securities as shall be agreed, in exchange for the transfer by Seller to Buyer of other Securities of such amount and description as shall be agreed ("New Purchased Securities") (being Securities having a Market Value at the date of the variation at least equal to the Market Value of the Equivalent Securities transferred to Seller).

(b) Any variation under sub-paragraph (a) above shall be effected, subject to paragraph 6(d), by the simultaneous transfer of the Equivalent Securities and New Purchased Securities concerned.

(c) A Transaction which is varied under sub-paragraph (a) above shall thereafter continue in effect as though the Purchased Securities under that Transaction consisted of or included the New Purchased Securities instead of the Securities in respect of which Equivalent Securities have been transferred to Seller.

(d) Where either party has transferred Margin Securities to the other party it may at any time before Equivalent Margin Securities are transferred to it under paragraph 4 request the other party to transfer Equivalent Margin Securities to it in exchange for the transfer to the other party of new Margin Securities having a Market Value at the time of transfer at least equal to that of such Equivalent Margin Securities. If the other party agrees to the request, the exchange shall be effected, subject to paragraph 6(d), by the simultaneous transfer of the Equivalent Margin Securities and new Margin Securities concerned. Where either or both of such transfers is or are effected through a settlement system in circumstances which under the rules and procedures of that settlement system give rise to a payment by or for the account of one party to or for the account of the other party, the parties shall cause such payment or payments to be made outside that settlement system, for value the same day as the payments made through that settlement system, as shall ensure that the exchange of Equivalent Margin Securities and new Margin Securities effected under this sub-paragraph does not give rise to any net payment of cash by either party to the other.

(ii) if Buyer has a Transaction Exposure to Seller in respect of the relevant Transaction, require Seller from time to time to pay Cash Margin at least equal to such Transaction Exposure;

(ii) If the first party reasonably decides, instead of entering into such replacement transactions, to replace or unwind any hedging transactions which the first party entered into in connection with the Transaction so terminating, or to enter into any replacement hedging transactions, the other party shall be required to pay to the first party the amount determined by the first party in good faith to be equal to the loss or expense incurred in connection with entering into such replacement or unwinding (including all fees, costs and other expenses) less the amount of any profit or gain made by that party in connection with such replacement or unwinding; provided that if that calculation results in a negative number, an amount equal to that number shall be payable by the first party to the other party.

(I) Each party shall immediately notify the other if an Event of Default, or an event which, upon the serving of a Default Notice, would be an Event of Default, occurs in relation to it.

11. Tax Event

(a) This paragraph shall apply if either party notifies the other that -

(i) any action taken by a taxing authority or brought in a court of competent jurisdiction (regardless of whether such action is taken or brought with respect to a party to this Agreement); or

(ii) a change in the fiscal or regulatory regime (including, but not limited to, a change in law or in the general interpretation of law but excluding any change in any rate of tax),

(d) If the party receiving the notice referred to in sub-paragraph (a) so elects, it may override that notice by giving a counter-notice to the other party. If a counter-notice is given, the party which gives the counter-notice will be deemed to have agreed to indemnify the other party against the adverse effect referred to in sub-paragraph (a) so far as relates to the relevant Transaction and the original Repurchase Date will continue to apply.

(e) Where a Transaction is terminated as described in this paragraph, the party which has given the notice to terminate shall indemnify the other party against any reasonable legal and other professional expenses incurred by the other party by reason of the termination, but the other party may not claim any sum by way of consequential loss or damage in respect of a termination in accordance with this paragraph.

(f) This paragraph is without prejudice to paragraph 6(b) (obligation to Oy additional amounts if withholding or deduction required); but an obligation to pay such additional amounts may, where appropriate, be a circumstance which causes this paragraph to apply.

(ii) The Confirmation relating to any Forward Transaction may describe the Purchased Securities by reference to a type or class of Securities, which, without limitation, may be identified by issuer or class of issuers and a maturity or range of maturities. Where this paragraph applies, the parties shall agree the actual Purchased Securities not less than two Business Days before the Purchase Date and Buyer or Seller (or both), as shall have been agreed, shall promptly deliver to the other party a Confirmation which shall describe such Purchased Securities.

(iii) At any time between the Forward Repricing Date and the Purchase Date for any Forward Transaction the parties may agree either —

(A) to adjust the Purchase Price under that Forward Transaction; or

(B) to adjust the number of Purchased Securities to be sold by Seller to Buyer under that Forward Transaction.

(iv) Where the parties agree to an adjustment under paragraph (iii) above, Buyer or Seller (or both), as shall have been agreed, shall promptly deliver to the other party a Confirmation of the Forward Transaction, as adjusted under paragraph (iii) above.

31

(iii) with respect to any Transaction at any time during the period from the Purchase Date (or, if later, the date on which the Purchased Securities are delivered to Buyer or the Transaction is terminated under paragraph 10(g)) to the Repurchase Date (or, if later, the date on which Equivalent Securities are delivered to Seller or the Transaction is terminated under paragraph 10(h)), the difference between (A) the Repurchase Price at the relevant time multiplied by the applicable Margin Ratio (or, where the Transaction relates to Securities of more than one description to which different Margin Ratios apply, the amount produced by multiplying the Repurchase Price attributable to Equivalent Securities of each such description by the applicable Margin Ratio and aggregating the resulting amounts, the Repurchase Price being for this purpose attributed to Equivalent Securities of each such description in the same proportions as those in which the Purchase Price was apportioned among the Purchased Securities) and (B) the Market Value of Equivalent Securities at the relevant time.

In each case, if (A) is greater than (B), Buyer has a Transaction Exposure for that Transaction equal to the excess, and if (B) is greater than (A), Seller has a Transaction Exposure to Buyer equal to the excess."

If any sum or obligation is unascertained, X may in good faith estimate that sum or obligation and set-off in respect of that estimate, subject to X or Y, as the case may be, accounting to the other party when such sum or obligation is ascertained; provided that the non-Defaulting Party agrees to notify the Defaulting Party as soon as reasonably practicable after any such set-off and application made by the non-Defaulting Party; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. Nothing in this Agreement shall create or be deemed to create any charge under English law."

(i) The Parties agree that in relation to any Securities where:

(a) the Securities have been suspended from their principal trading market;

35

(4) where the Buyer wishes to continue the Transaction the Buyer shall be obliged to deliver to the Seller such Securities upon delivery to the Buyer of New Purchased Securities in an amount which shall satisfy the conditions of paragraph 8.

In the case of either (1), (2), (3) or (4) above then the Buyer shall have the right to call for Margin Transfer in accordance with paragraph 4 and it is hereby agreed between the parties that where there is an inability to obtain a Market Value for such securities from a generally accepted pricing source, the Market Value for such securities for the purpose of (a) and (b) above shall be nil.

For the avoidance of doubt the value of the securities for the purpose of Sub-clause (c) above shall be the Market Value.

Q) paragraph 9(g) is amended by deleting the word "and" at the end of sub-clause (iii), and including the following as an additional paragraph:-

"References in this clause to a "party" shall, in the case of UBS AG and where the context so allows, include reference to any affiliate of UBS AG, and"

(k) paragraph 4(c)(iv) and 4(e)(v) of the Italian Annex for Domestic Purchased Securities shall be replaced with the following:

"the Pricing Rate shall be the market rate, on the day, as quoted on Telematico or as agreed between the parties on the day of the Replacement Transaction."

(I) The first paragraph of Paragraph 17 shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced as follows:

"(b)           The courts of England have non-exclusive jurisdiction to hear and decide any suit, action or proceedings, and to settle any disputes, which may arise out of or in connection with this Agreement, including without limitation disputes arising out of or in connection with the existence, creation, validity, effect, interpretation performance and/or termination of the legal relationships established by this Agreement and to any disputes arising out of any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, (respectively, "Proceedings" and "Disputes") and, for these purposes, each party irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of England.

Each party irrevocably waives any objection which it might at any time have to the courts of England being nominated as the forum to hear and decide any Proceedings and to settle any Disputes and agrees not to claim that the courts of England are not a convenient or appropriate forum.

36

Any Affiliate of Party A performing obligations under or in connection with this Agreement shall be entitled to the benefits of and shall be subject to the terms of this paragraph 17."

(m) Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO THE OTHER PARTY'S ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

(n) Paragraph 21 is hereby amended by inserting the words "subject to paragraph 17(b)" in the first line.

(o) New Paragraphs 23 and 24 shall be added as follows: "23. INTENT.

(a) The parties recognize that each Transaction is a "repurchase agreement" as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code as amended (the "Bankruptcy Code") (except insofar as the type of Securities subject to such Transaction or the term of such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable), and a "securities contract" as that term is defined in Section 741 of the Bankruptcy Code.

(b) It is understood that either party's right to liquidate Securities delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Paragraph 10 hereof, is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in Section 555 and 559 of the Bankruptcy Code.

(c) The parties agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an "insured depository institution", as such terms is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended ("FDIA"), then each Transaction hereunder is a "qualified financial contract", as such term is defined in the FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).

(d) It is understood that this Agreement constitutes a "netting contract" as defined in and subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA") and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder shall constitute a "covered contractual payment entitlement" or "covered contractual payment obligation", respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as one or both of the parties is not a "financial institution" as such term is defined in FDICIA).

24. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.

The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:

(a) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("1934 Act"), the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 ("SIPA") do not protect the other party with respect to Transactions hereunder;

37

(b) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government securities broker or government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and

(c) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable."

(p) Agency.

(i)         As a broker-dealer registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), UBS Securities LLC ("UBSS") as agent for each of Party A and Party B, will be responsible for effecting Transactions, transmitting confirmations and maintaining books and records of Transactions as required by Rule 15a-6 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

(ii)         UBSS is acting in connection with Transactions hereunder solely in its capacity as agent for Party A and Party B pursuant to instructions from Party A and Party B. UBSS shall have no responsibility or personal liability to Party A and Party B to pay or perform any obligation hereunder, except for gross negligence or wilful misconduct by UBSS. Each of Party A and Party B agrees to proceed solely against the other to collect or recover any amounts owing to it to enforce any of its right in connection with, or as a result of Transactions hereunder.

(iii)         Any and all notices, demands or communications of any kind relating to Transactions hereunder between Party A and Party B shall be transmitted exclusively through UBSS.

(iv)         The parties acknowledge that the Agreement shall not govern any repurchase transaction between (i) UBSS, acting in its individual capacity, and Party B or (ii) Party B and any entity other than Party A, regardless of whether UBSS is acting as agent for such other entity.

(q) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts by facsimile or pdf signature, each of which shall be deemed to be a signed original.

(r) The following additional paragraph 9(A), subsections (i) and (ii) shall be inserted:

"9(A). Additional Representations and Notice.

(i) Party B Representations. Party B represents and warrants on and as of the date hereof and on and as of each date this Agreement or any Transaction remains outstanding:

(A) No ERISA Funds. The assets of Party B do not include "plan assets" within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA, and Party B is not otherwise subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

(B) No Governmental Plan Funds. The assets of Party B do not include the assets of any "governmental plan" within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA, and Party B is not otherwise subject to any law, rule, regulation, or restriction governing the investment of the assets of such plans.

38

(ii) Notice of Increase of Constituent Plan Investment. Party B agrees to notify Party A immediately if at any time it learns or discovers facts at variance with the foregoing representations and warranties."

(s) FATCA — HIRE ACT.

(i) The following definitions will be added to Paragraph 2 of the Agreement in the appropriate alphabetical order:

"Code" means the United States of America Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended;

"FATCA "Means Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b) of the Code, or any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such Sections of the Code.

(ii) paragraph 2(s). The definition of "Equivalent Securities" shall be amended as follows:

"Equivalent Securities", with respect to a Transaction, Securities equivalent to Purchased Securities under that Transaction. If and to the extent that such Purchased Securities have been redeemed, the expression shall mean a sum of money equivalent to the proceeds of the redemption, without taking into account any deduction or withholding imposed or collected in connection with FATCA that would not have been imposed but for Buyer's non-compliance with FATCA.

(iii) paragraph 5. Paragraph 5 is deleted and replaced with the following:

"5. Unless otherwise agreed:

(a) where the Term of a particular Transaction extends over an Income Payment Date in respect of any Securities subject to that Transaction, Buyer shall on the date such Income is paid by the issuer transfer to or credit to the account of Seller an amount equal to (and in the same currency as) the amount paid by the issuer;

(b) where Margin Securities are transferred from one party ("the first party") to the other party ("the second party") and an Income Payment Date in respect of such Securities occurs before Equivalent Margin Securities are transferred by the second party to the first party, the second party shall on the date such Income is paid by the issuer transfer to or credit to the account of the first party an amount equal to (and in the same currency as) the amount paid by the issuer,

and for the avoidance of doubt references in this paragraph to the amount of Income paid by the issuer of any Securities shall be to an amount paid without any withholding or deduction for or on account of taxes or duties notwithstanding that a payment of such Income made in certain circumstances may be subject to a withholding or deduction, except, where a withholding or deduction for or on account of taxes or duties has been imposed under FATCA, to the extent an equivalent or greater amount of withholding or deduction for or on account of taxes or duties would have been imposed under FATCA in respect of Income paid by the issuer on such Securities (or Margin Securities, as applicable) had the Seller (or the first party, as applicable) retained the Securities (or the Margin Securities, as applicable)."

39

(iv) paragraph 6(b). Paragraph 6(b) is deleted and replaced with the following:

"(b)(I) Unless otherwise agreed, all money payable by one party to the other in respect of any Transaction shall be paid free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for, any taxes or duties of whatsoever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any authority having power to tax unless the withholding or deduction of such taxes or duties is required by law. In that event, unless otherwise agreed, the paying party shall pay such additional amounts as will result in the net amounts receivable by the other party (after taking account of such withholding or deduction including such withholdings or deductions applicable to such additional sums payable under this paragraph) being equal to such amounts as would have been received by it had no such taxes or duties been required to be withheld or deducted. For the avoidance of doubt, the reference to "law" in this paragraph includes FATCA. However, no additional amounts shall be payable by the paying party to the other party under this sub-paragraph (b)(I) to the extent that such tax is imposed or collected under FATCA.

(II) If the paying party is required to make a withholding or deduction under FATCA but does not so withhold or deduct, and a liability resulting from such tax is assessed directly against the paying party, then, except to the extent the other party has satisfied or then satisfies the liability resulting from such tax, the other party will promptly pay to the paying party the amount of such liability (including any related liability for interest, but including any related liability for penalties only to the extent provided in sub-paragraph b(III)). No payment under this sub-paragraph (b)(II) is required to be made to the extent that the relevant liability arises from any gross negligence or willful misconduct of the paying party.

(III) The amount of related liability for penalties shall only be payable to the paying party under sub-paragraph (b)(II) where such penalties become due because the other party has failed to comply with paragraph 2(d)(iii) or 2(d)(iv) of the Annex I hereto.

(v) Paragraph 6(k). A new paragraph 6(k) is included as follows:

"(k) If at any time a party (the "first party") is required to remit an amount of tax to the IRS with respect to a payment under a Transaction in connection with FATCA, then without duplication of any amount the first party has deducted on account of such tax from any amount previously paid to the other party (the "second party") pursuant to the Transaction, the second party shall be required to pay to the first party an amount equal to that amount of tax on the payment date on which a payment giving rise to remittance required under FATCA occurs. Upon the reasonable request of the second party with respect to any payment date, the first party will supply to the second party computations setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable on such payment date pursuant to the preceding sentence."

(vi) paragraph 6(1). A new paragraph 6(1) is included as follows:

"(I) For the avoidance of doubt, the imposition of any withholding or deduction pursuant to or on account of FATCA on any amounts paid or received under a Transaction shall not be treated as an Event of Default under paragraph 10 or as a material adverse effect that could cause a Tax Event under paragraph 11, even if such imposition results in either party receiving amounts that differ materially from the amount that the party would have otherwise received if no such withholding or deduction were imposed."

40

(vii) paragraph 10(e)(iii). A new sub-paragraph 10(e)(iii) is included as follows:

"(iii) The Default Market Value determined pursuant to sub-paragraphs (i) or (ii) above shall not take into account any deduction or withholding imposed or collected (or that would be imposed or collected) in connection with FATCA that would not be imposed but for the non-Defaulting Party's non-compliance with FATCA."

Repurchase Price:	With respect to each Purchased Security, the Purchase Price for such Purchased Security as of the relevant Repurchase Date.  For the avoidance of doubt, there shall be no Price Differential incorporated into the Repurchase Price and all references to Price Differential and Pricing Rate are hereby deleted from the Agreement. In lieu of Price Differential, Seller shall be obligated to pay the Transaction Fee Amounts to Buyer as set forth herein. For the avoidance of doubt, paragraphs 2(ii), 2(jj) and 2(pp) of the Agreement shall not apply to the Transaction.
Termination of Transaction:	Subject to paragraphs 10 and 11 of the Agreement and Buyer’s rights with respect to a Regulatory Event and as otherwise set forth in this Confirmation, unless the parties otherwise agree, the Transaction shall not be terminable on demand by either Party.
Purchase Price Reduction:	(a)          Seller may elect to prepay all or a portion of the Purchase Price of the Purchased Securities upon at least two Business Days’ prior written notice to Buyer if and only to the extent that (x) all or any portion of the Purchased Securities have been redeemed by the Issuer for cash in the form of USD on or prior to the related Prepayment Date (as defined below) and (y) such redemption has not previously resulted in a reduction in the Purchase Price of the Purchased Securities pursuant to the operation of these “Purchase Price Reduction” provisions (any prepayment of all of the then-outstanding Purchase Price under this clause (a), a "Voluntary Full Prepayment" and any prepayment of a portion of the then-outstanding Purchase Price under this clause (a), a "Voluntary Partial Prepayment").

2

(b)          If a Mandatory Prepayment Event has occurred with respect to the Purchased Securities, Buyer may upon at least three Business Days' prior written notice to Seller require Seller to prepay the entire Purchase Price of the Purchased Securities (such prepayment, a "Mandatory Prepayment").

Each written notice delivered by Seller under clause (a) or Buyer under clause (b) (each a "Prepayment Notice") shall (x) designate the date on which such prepayment is to be effective (each a "Prepayment Date") and (y) identify the portion of the then outstanding Purchase Price of the Purchased Securities to be prepaid on such Prepayment Date (such amount, the "Prepayment Amount"); provided that, in the case of a written notice delivered by Seller under clause (a), the Prepayment Amount designated by Seller in any Prepayment Notice for any Prepayment Date shall be such amount as Seller elects being equal to not less than U.S.$5 million and not greater than 50% of the applicable Current Redeemed Amount for such Prepayment Date.

On each Prepayment Date:

(i)          Buyer shall transfer to Seller or its agent Equivalent Securities in the form of USD cash in an amount equal to (A) the related Current Redeemed Amount minus (B) any Eligible Margin that the Seller would be required to post following the payments referred to in this paragraph and paragraphs (iii) and (iv) below);

(ii)          Seller shall pay the related Prepayment Amount to Buyer;

(iii)         Seller shall pay the related Breakage Amount (if any) to Buyer;

(iv)         with respect to a Voluntary Partial Prepayment, for each Purchased Security that is the subject of such prepayment, the Purchase Price for such Purchased Security immediately after giving effect to such prepayment shall be equal to (x) the Purchase Price thereof immediately prior to such prepayment minus (y) the related Prepayment Amount for such Purchased Security;

(v)          with respect to a Voluntary Full Prepayment or Mandatory Prepayment, (x) the Repurchase Date for the Transaction will be deemed to occur on such Prepayment Date and (y) the Purchase Price payable by Seller pursuant to clause (ii) above for the Purchased Securities required to be transferred by Buyer pursuant to clause (i) above, in each case as of the Repurchase Date, will be an amount equal to the related aggregate Prepayment Amount; and

3

	(vi)         to the extent that a party has previously paid Cash Margin which has not been repaid in respect of the Purchased Security (or applicable portion thereof) that is the subject of such prepayment, that party shall be entitled to require that such Cash Margin and any accrued interest thereon be repaid on the applicable Prepayment Date (payment of which shall be subject to the operation of the provisions of paragraph 6(h) (as amended hereby)).
Current Redeemed Amount:	With respect to any Prepayment Date, an amount in USD determined by the Calculation Agent equal to the aggregate amount actually received by the holder of the Purchased Securities from the Issuer as one or more redemption payments in respect of the Purchased Securities on or prior to such Prepayment Date that has not previously been delivered by Buyer to Seller as Equivalent Securities pursuant to clause (i) of the “Purchase Price Reduction” provisions above.
Mandatory Prepayment Event:	It shall constitute a Mandatory Prepayment Event with respect to Seller if (after giving effect to all applicable notice requirements and grace periods) an "Event of Default" occurs with respect to the Issuer under (and as defined in) the Indenture and the stated maturity of the Class A Notes is accelerated under Section 5.2 of the Indenture.
Accelerated Termination Event:	Buyer may, at any time following the occurrence of a Regulatory Event, terminate the Transaction under this Confirmation by notifying Seller of an early Repurchase Date for such Transaction, which Repurchase Date shall not be earlier (unless so agreed by Buyer and Seller) than 15 calendar days after the date of such notice (or such lesser period as may be necessary for Buyer to comply with its obligations under applicable laws and regulations arising as a result of such Regulatory Event).
Regulatory Event:	An event which shall occur if, at any time, (a) Buyer determines, in its good faith commercially reasonable discretion, that Buyer's involvement in the transactions contemplated in this Confirmation and the Agreement violates or could violate any law, rule or regulation applicable to Buyer or (b) any applicable Governmental Authority informs Buyer that Buyer's involvement in such transactions violates or could violate any law, rule or regulation applicable to Buyer.
Paragraph 6(h):	Paragraph 6(h) shall be amended by deleting the words “Subject to paragraph 10,” at the beginning thereof such that, for the avoidance of doubt, such paragraph applies with respect to all payment obligations arising out of the occurrence of an Accelerated Termination Event, Voluntary Partial Prepayment, Voluntary Full Prepayment or an early Repurchase Date (including, without limitation, payment obligations in respect of Income that have accrued on or prior to the relevant date).

4

Failure to Deliver Equivalent Securities: In respect of the Transaction, this provision (Failure to Deliver Equivalent Securities) shall apply in relation to Buyer’s obligations with respect to the Class A Notes in lieu of paragraph 10(h) of the Agreement and any reference in the Agreement to paragraph 10(h) in respect of Buyer’s obligations with respect to the Class A Notes shall be deemed to be a reference to this provision (Failure to Deliver Equivalent Securities).   It is acknowledged by each of the Parties hereto that the Class A Notes are unique assets, and that (except for proceeds of a redemption or repayment referred to in the definition of "Equivalent Securities") accordingly no asset other than the Purchased Securities will qualify as Equivalent Securities.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in paragraph 10 of the Agreement or otherwise in the Agreement or this Confirmation and without duplication of the Operational Errors provisions below, if Buyer (the "Transferor") fails to deliver to Seller (the "Transferee") any Purchased Security (an "Unavailable Asset") by the time (the "Due Date") required under the Agreement or within such other period as may be agreed in writing by the Transferor and the Transferee (such failure, a "Transfer Failure"):   (a)          the Transferee, if it has paid the Purchase Price to the Transferor, may require the Transferor to repay the sum so paid with interest which shall accrue at a rate equal to the overnight Federal Funds (Effective) Rate for each day such amount remains outstanding (as reported in Federal Reserve Publication H.15-519) plus 2% per annum;   (b)          the Transferor, acting in good faith and a commercially reasonable manner, shall try for a period of 10 calendar days from the day following the Due Date in respect of the Unavailable Asset (the last day of such period, the "Transfer Cut-Off Date") to obtain such Unavailable Asset (and, where the Transfer Failure is in respect of Buyer’s obligation to deliver the Purchased Securities on the scheduled Repurchase Date for the Transaction, the Transaction shall be deemed to continue until, and terminate upon, the Extended Termination Date);   (c)          if the Transferor obtains such Unavailable Asset on or prior to the Transfer Cut-Off Date, the Transferor shall promptly give notice to the Transferee of its ability to deliver such Unavailable Asset and shall transfer such Unavailable Asset to the Transferee on the third Business Day following the day on which the Transferor delivers such notice in settlement of the relevant Transfer Failure;

5

(d)          if any Unavailable Asset is redeemed in full or in part by the relevant issuer prior to the Transfer Cut-Off Date, then either Party may give notice to the other Party of such redemption after becoming aware of the same, and the Transferor shall transfer a sum of money equivalent to the proceeds of such redemption to the Transferee no later than two Business Days following the day on which the Transferor delivers or receives such notice;

(e)          if (x) Transferor has not obtained any Unavailable Asset on or prior to the Transfer Cut-Off Date and (y) such Unavailable Asset has not been redeemed in full by the relevant issuer prior to the Transfer Cut-Off Date, then on the Transfer Cut-Off Date, Transferor shall be deemed to have failed to satisfy its obligations to deliver Purchased Securities in accordance with its obligations under this Confirmation and the Agreement and such event shall constitute an Event of Default with respect to Buyer; and

(f)          to the extent that a party has previously paid Cash Margin which has not been repaid in respect of the Unavailable Asset, that party shall be entitled to require that such Cash Margin be repaid on the Extended Termination Date (as defined below).

For the avoidance of doubt, following any Transfer Failure in relation to the Transaction, the Parties’ other obligations under the Agreement shall continue, and if such Transfer Failure occurred in connection with the relevant Repurchase Date for the Transaction, the Transaction shall terminate on the day (the "Extended Termination Date") which is, with respect to the last Unavailable Asset, the earliest to occur of:

(i)           the Business Day on which the Transferor transfers such last Unavailable Asset in accordance with sub-paragraph (c) above;

(ii)          if such last Unavailable Asset is redeemed in full in accordance with sub-paragraph (d) above, the day on which the Transferor transfers proceeds of such redemption; and

(iii)         the date on which clause (e) above occurs.

If any such Transfer Failure continues to subsist after the scheduled Repurchase Date for the Transaction, the Transaction Fee Amounts shall cease to accrue on the scheduled Repurchase Date for the Transaction and no further Transaction Fee Amounts shall be payable in respect of the Transaction, notwithstanding the continuance of the Parties’ obligations up to the Extended Termination Date under this provision.

6

Paragraph 10(k)(i) shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: “Subject to sub-paragraph (ii) below, if as a result of (A) a Transaction terminating before its agreed Repurchase Date under paragraphs 10(b) or 10(g)(iii) or (B) the Transaction being extended to and terminating on the Extended Termination Date as a result of a failure by Buyer to satisfy its obligations to deliver Purchased Securities, the non-Defaulting Party (in the case of paragraph 10(b)), Buyer (in the case of paragraph 10(g)(iii)) or Seller (in the case of the occurrence of the Extended Termination Date) (in each case the "first party") incurs any loss or expense in entering into replacement transactions, the other party shall, in addition and without prejudice to any other amounts required to be paid by such other party under the Confirmation evidencing such Transaction, be required to pay to the first party the amount determined by the first party in good faith to be equal to the loss or expense incurred in connection with such replacement transactions (including all fees, costs and other expenses) less the amount of any profit or gain made by that party in connection with such replacement transactions; provided that if that calculation results in a negative number, an amount equal to that number shall be payable by the first party to the other party.”

Determination of Default Market Value:

If the Repurchase Date is accelerated hereunder by reason of an Event of Default with respect to Buyer as Defaulting Party, then (x) this provision shall apply in lieu of paragraphs 10(d) through (e) (inclusive) of the Agreement for purposes of determining (I) the Default Market Value of the Equivalent Securities to be transferred, (II) the amount of any Cash Margin (including the amount of any interest accrued) to be transferred, and (III) the Repurchase Price to be paid, as a result of such Event of Default, and (y) any reference in the Agreement to paragraph 10(d) and/or 10(e), in relation to the Transaction shall be deemed to be a reference to this provision. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in paragraphs 10(c) though (f) (inclusive) under the Agreement related to an Event of Default with respect to Buyer that results in the acceleration of the Repurchase Date: (a)          the Default Market Value of the Equivalent Securities shall be the Final Price (as defined in the Collateral Management Agreement) determined by the Collateral Manager (as defined in the Indenture) on the Default Valuation Date (as defined in the Collateral Management Agreement), determined based upon the provisions of Section 2(p) of the Collateral Management Agreement; and (b)          solely for purposes of determining the Default Market Value under sub-clause (a) above, each of Buyer and Seller hereby appoints the Collateral Manager as the Calculation Agent.

7

Income:	Means any interest, dividends or other distributions other than principal payments to be paid with respect to any Purchased Securities.  Buyer shall transfer to Seller all Income paid or distributed on or in respect of the Purchased Securities within one Business Day after the date that such Income is paid or distributed to holders of the Purchased Securities, and paragraph 5(i) of the Agreement (as amended and restated in the related Annex) shall be amended accordingly.  For avoidance of doubt, (a) references to the amount of any Income paid shall be to an amount paid net of any withholding or deduction for or on account of taxes or duties other than taxes or duties imposed as a result of a subsequent sale, transfer, pledge, or hypothecation of the Purchased Securities (including by way of a repurchase transaction) by Buyer, (b) all payment obligations of Buyer in respect of Income that have accrued but remain outstanding on any Repurchase Date shall be paid on such Repurchase Date and shall be subject to the provisions of paragraph 6(h) (as amended hereby) and (c) except as expressly provided for in the "Unpaid Amounts" provisions of this Confirmation or in paragraph 6(h) of the Agreement, Buyer shall not net or set-off against or otherwise apply the Income payment or payments to reduce the amount, if any, to be transferred to Buyer by Seller upon termination of this Transaction.
Clawback:	If (a) any distribution (whether as an Income payment or otherwise) on a Purchased Security is received by Buyer and subsequently paid by Buyer to Seller hereunder, and (b) Buyer is subsequently required to transfer all or a portion of such payment to the issuer of such Security (or trustee, paying agent or similar party) (the amount transferred, the "Clawback Amount"), then promptly after receiving notice of such Clawback Amount from Buyer, Seller shall transfer an amount equal to the Clawback Amount to Buyer. Buyer agrees to pay over to Seller within one Business Day after receipt any amounts subsequently recovered (but only to the extent such amounts are actually received by Buyer and Buyer is not otherwise obligated to pay such amounts to Seller pursuant to any other provision hereunder such that payment would result in duplicative payments by Buyer or any other party), and to make reasonable efforts to claim and collect such recoveries.  No interest shall be payable by Buyer or Seller in relation to Clawback Amounts or amounts recovered in respect thereof for the period prior to such amounts becoming payable under this provision.  This provision shall survive the termination of the Transaction.
Operational Errors:	Notwithstanding paragraph 10(a) of the Agreement and, without duplication of the “Failure to Deliver Equivalent Securities” provisions above, the failure of a Party ("X") to make any payment or delivery referred to in such paragraph (other than a payment or delivery referred to in paragraph 10(a)(iv) of the Agreement) in respect of the Transaction will not be an Event of Default if such failure arises solely by reason of:

8

(a)          an error or omission of an administrative or operational nature made by or on behalf of X or by any bank, broker-dealer, clearing corporation or other similar financial intermediary holding funds, securities or other property directly or indirectly for account of X (each, a "Paying Agent"); or (b)          a failure by a person or entity other than X or any of its affiliates to make a delivery when due to X of securities or other property that X is obligated to deliver under the Transaction, in each case, subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions: (i) such failure does not continue for more than three Business Days after notice of such failure is given to X, (ii) funds, securities or property (assuming the timely delivery of securities or other property required to be delivered to X for settlement on or prior to the related date for payment or delivery under the Transaction) were available to X or such Paying Agent(s) to enable it (or them) to make the relevant payment or delivery when due, and (iii) X has provided the other Party with such additional information as the other Party shall have reasonably requested in writing in order to satisfy the other Party that such failure occurred solely as a result of one or more of the reasons described above.

Events of Default:

In addition to the Events of Default set forth in the Agreement, if any of the following events occurs, it shall constitute an Event of Default with respect to the relevant Party specified below which shall be the Defaulting Party: (a)          with respect to Seller, if Seller fails to pay any Transaction Fee Amount due on a Transaction Fee Payment Date, and such amount remains unpaid for three (3) Business Days following the date that Buyer, as non-Defaulting Party, serves a Default Notice on the Seller as Defaulting Party; (b)          with respect to Seller, if Seller breaches any of the covenants set forth in the section "Certain Covenants of Seller" below and such breach is not remedied within three (3) Business Days following the date that Buyer, as non-Defaulting Party, serves a Default Notice on the Seller as Defaulting Party; (c)          with respect to Seller, if Seller fails to pay the applicable Breakage Amount (if any) on any Prepayment Date or early Repurchase Date, and Buyer, as non-Defaulting Party, serves a Default Notice on the Defaulting Party;

9

(d)          with respect to Buyer or Seller, as applicable, if Buyer or Seller, respectively, fails to perform its respective payment or delivery obligations on any Prepayment Date or when required under the “Failure to Deliver Equivalent Securities provisions above”, and the Party that is the non-Defaulting Party serves a Default Notice on the Defaulting Party; (e)          with respect to Seller, Seller fails to pay any Clawback Amount in accordance with the Clawback provisions herein or, with respect to Buyer, Buyer fails to return any amounts to Seller as required by the Clawback provisions, and the non-Defaulting Party serves a Default Notice on the Defaulting Party and the same is not paid within one (1) Business Day of such Default Notice; and (f)           with respect to Seller, (i) the occurrence of an act by Seller that constitutes fraud or criminal activity in the performance of its obligations under the Agreement, the Equity Contribution Agreement or the Collateral Management Agreement, or (ii) Seller or any of its officers or directors (other than any independent or other outside director that is not an employee of Seller) shall be charged, indicted, convicted or the subject of a civil, administrative or enforcement action by any Governmental Authority for an offense involving securities fraud, embezzlement, money laundering, racketeering, insider trading, market manipulation or other similar violations of federal or state securities laws or federal criminal laws (other than any industry-wide investigation relating to practices that have become the subject of contemporaneous actions against multiple non-affiliated entities), and Buyer, as the non-Defaulting Party, serves a Default Notice on the Seller as Defaulting Party.

Breakage Amounts:

If (a) the Repurchase Date for this Transaction occurs prior to the scheduled Repurchase Date by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default (where Seller is the Defaulting Party), a Mandatory Prepayment, a Voluntary Full Prepayment or an event described in paragraph 11(a) of the Agreement in respect of which Seller is the notifying party or (b) a Prepayment Date occurs in connection with a Voluntary Partial Prepayment, then, without limitation of any other payments or deliveries that become due as a result of such event but without duplication, on such Repurchase Date, Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the Breakage Amount for this Transaction or the applicable portion thereof.  For the avoidance of doubt, no Breakage Amount shall be payable by Seller in respect of any Repurchase Date occurring as a result of a Regulatory Event.

10

"Breakage Amount" shall mean, with respect to the Transaction evidenced hereby (or, in the case of a Voluntary Partial Prepayment the applicable portion thereof that is the subject of such Voluntary Partial Prepayment), the present value of the Transaction Fee Amounts that would have been payable to Buyer under such Transaction (or the applicable portion thereof) from (and including) the early Repurchase Date or applicable Prepayment Date (as applicable) to (but excluding) the scheduled Repurchase Date, as determined by the Calculation Agent assuming, solely for purposes of determining such amount, that (i) the Transaction Fee Rate is equal to the Spread and not LIBOR plus the Spread and (ii) the Repurchase Price payable upon such termination were to remain outstanding until the originally scheduled Repurchase Date.

Equivalent Securities:

Paragraph 2(s) and 2(t) shall be deleted in their entirety and replaced with the following: “(s)        "Equivalent Securities", with respect to a Transaction, Securities equivalent to Purchased Securities under that Transaction. If and to the extent that such Purchased Securities have been redeemed or repaid, the expression shall mean a sum of money equivalent to the proceeds of the redemption or repayment; (t)           Securities are "equivalent to" other Securities for the purposes of this Agreement if they are: (i) of the same issuer; (ii) part of the same issue; and (iii) of an identical type, nominal value, description, class, CUSIP number (or equivalent ISIN number) and (except where otherwise stated) amount as those other Securities.”

2 Purchased Securities, Margining and Substitutions

Purchased Securities:	On the Purchase Date, Seller will transfer to Buyer the Class A Notes issued under the Indenture on the Trade Date (CUSIP: G0905XAA4) in exchange for the related Purchase Price. Such Class A Notes shall constitute the Purchased Securities under the Transaction evidenced hereby.
Margin Ratio:	With respect to a Purchased Security, an amount equal to (a) one, divided by (b) 1 minus the Haircut applicable to such Purchased Security.
Haircut:	50%.
Marking to Market:	The Parties agree that, with respect to this Transaction, the provisions of paragraphs 4(a) to (h) (inclusive), 4(j) and 4(k) of the Agreement shall not apply and instead margin shall be provided separately in respect of this Transaction in accordance with the terms of this Confirmation.  For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of paragraph 8(d) of the Agreement shall not apply to the Transaction.

11

Margin Maintenance:	Subject to the "Timing of Transfer of Eligible Margin" provision of this Confirmation:
	(a)	if at any time the Net Transaction Exposure for this Transaction is greater than zero, Buyer may, by notice to Seller, require Seller to transfer to Buyer Eligible Margin such that, immediately following such transfer, the Net Transaction Exposure is not greater than zero; and
	(b)	if at any time the Net Transaction Exposure is less than zero, Seller may, by notice to Buyer, require Buyer to transfer Eligible Margin to Seller such that, immediately following such transfer, the Net Transaction Exposure is greater than or equal to zero;
	provided that (i), subject to clause (iii) below, the excess or the deficiency, as the case may be, is not less than the Minimum Transfer Amount, (ii) Seller shall have no obligation to transfer Eligible Margin to Buyer unless and until the first time that the Net Transaction Exposure is equal to or greater than the Margin Threshold (upon the occurrence of which the Margin Threshold shall be reduced to zero) and (iii) if a Repurchase Date occurs, (A) the Minimum Transfer Amount limitation shall not apply and (B) the Party entitled to the return of Eligible Margin as a result of such occurrence shall be deemed to have given notice demanding such transfer on such Repurchase Date.
	Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) in no event will Buyer be required to transfer Eligible Margin to Seller pursuant to the foregoing except to the extent that such Eligible Margin constitutes Eligible Margin previously transferred to Buyer by Seller and (y) Eligible Margin "held by Buyer" at any time means Eligible Margin previously transferred to Buyer by Seller that has not theretofore been returned to Seller by Buyer.
Eligible Margin:	USD Cash only.
Net Margin Transferor:	In respect of a Transaction, the Party (if any) that has provided positive Net Margin amount to the other Party hereto.

	(c)	if neither Party is a Net Margin Transferor, unadjusted.

12

Purchased Securities Exposure Amount:	In respect of a Purchased Security, an amount equal to:
	(a)	the Repurchase Price of such Purchased Security multiplied by the Margin Ratio applicable to such Purchased Security, minus
	(b)	the Market Value of such Purchased Security.
Net Margin:	(i)          The definition of Net Margin in paragraph 2(ee) of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
	“The "Net Margin" provided to a party at any time shall mean the excess (if any) at that time of (i) the sum of the amount of Cash Margin paid to that party (including accrued interest on such Cash Margin which has not been paid to the other party) under the Margin Maintenance provisions in this Confirmation (excluding any Cash Margin which has been repaid to the other party) over (ii) the sum of the amount of Cash Margin paid to the other party (including accrued interest on such Cash Margin which has not been paid by the other party) under the Margin Maintenance provisions in this Confirmation (excluding any Cash Margin which has been repaid by the other party) and for this purpose any amounts not denominated in the Base Currency shall be converted into the Base Currency at the Spot Rate prevailing at the relevant time.”
Minimum Transfer Amount:	As of any date of determination, 5% of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes.
Timing of Transfer of Eligible Margin:	Where Eligible Margin is to be transferred under the Margin Maintenance provisions hereof, unless otherwise agreed between the Parties, if the relevant notification is received:

	(ii)	on a Business Day after the Margin Transfer Notification Time or on a day that is not a Business Day, then the relevant transfer shall be made not later than the close of business on the next Business Day after the date such notification is received.
	"Margin Transfer Notification Time" means, 10:00 am (New York time).

13

Market Value:	Notwithstanding paragraph 2(cc) of the Agreement but subject and without prejudice to the "Determination of Default Market Value" provisions above, "Market Value" shall mean, with respect to the Class A Notes on any date of determination by the Calculation Agent, an amount equal to the market value of all such Notes, calculated as the sum of (i) the sum, with respect to each Portfolio Asset (as defined in the Indenture) held by the issuer of the Class A Notes on such date, other than any Zero-Value Portfolio Asset (which for purposes of this sub-paragraph (b) shall have a value of zero), of the product of (x) the Current Price of such Portfolio Asset on such date and (y) the Principal Balance (as defined in the Indenture) of such Portfolio Asset (as defined in the Indenture) on such date, (ii) the aggregate amount of all cash held by the issuer of the Class A Notes on such date, plus (iii) the aggregate cost of purchase of all Eligible Investments held by the issuer of the Class A Notes on such date (subject to the Dispute Rights set forth herein).
	For purposes of calculating Market Value pursuant to clause (b), the trade date (and not the settlement date) with respect to any acquisition or disposition of a Portfolio Asset (as defined in the Indenture) shall be used to determine whether and when a Portfolio Asset is held by the issuer of the Class A Notes.
Current Price:	On any date of determination by the Calculation Agent with respect to any Portfolio Asset (as defined in the Indenture), including as of the acquisition date of such Portfolio Asset by the Issuer, the net cash proceeds (expressed as a percentage of par) that would be received from the sale of such Portfolio Asset on such date, exclusive of accrued interest and capitalized interest and net of the related expected Costs of Assignment (as defined below), as determined by the Calculation Agent. For purposes hereof: "Costs of Assignment" means, with respect to any Portfolio Asset, the sum of (a) without duplication of (b) or (c), any costs of any purchase, exchange, sale, transfer or assignment transaction with respect to such Portfolio Asset that would be paid by a person effecting such transaction under the terms of such Portfolio Asset or otherwise actually imposed on such person by any applicable trustee, administrative agent, registrar, borrower or Portfolio Asset Obligor incurred in connection with any such transaction with respect to such Portfolio Asset (including, without limitation, any amounts reimbursable by such person in respect of any tax or other governmental charge incurred with respect thereto), (b) without duplication of (a) or (c), any reasonable expenses that are incurred by such person in connection with any such transaction and (c) without duplication of (a) or (b), any reasonable administrative, legal or accounting fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, any fees and expenses of the trustee of or outside counsel to the Portfolio Asset Obligor on such Portfolio Asset) that are incurred by such person in connection with any such transaction.

Zero-Value Portfolio Asset: (a)          Any Portfolio Asset for which there does not exist a written agreement (which may be evidenced by an exchange of emails by duly authorized persons) between Buyer (acting in its sole discretion exercised in good faith without regard to the Zero-Value Designation Criteria, the Portfolio Criteria or “Asset Eligibility Criteria” (as defined in the Indenture), the exercise of which discretion shall not be affected by any prior exercise thereof by or other actions or omissions of Buyer) and Seller, entered into prior to the acquisition thereof by the issuer of the Class A Notes, to the effect that such Portfolio Asset shall not be a "Zero-Value Portfolio Asset"; provided that any such Portfolio Asset may subsequently become a Zero-Value Portfolio Asset pursuant to (b), (c), (d) or (e) of this Section.   (b)          Any Portfolio Asset (i) that, at any time after the acquisition thereof by the issuer of the Class A Notes on any date of determination by the Calculation Agent, has (A) become at any time a “Defaulted Obligation” (as defined in the Indenture) and such situation has not been remedied within five Business Days after the earlier of (1) notice of such event from the Collateral Manager to the Issuer and (2) notice of such event from Buyer to Seller or (B) other than those criteria that, by their express terms, are tested only at the date of acquisition by the Issuer, ceased to comply with any of the Zero-Value Designation Criteria and (ii) in respect of which Buyer, acting in its sole discretion exercised in good faith at any time thereafter (the exercise of which discretion shall not be affected by any prior exercise thereof by or other actions or omissions of Buyer), has notified Seller shall constitute a "Zero-Value Portfolio Asset" as a result of such event; provided that (i) Buyer shall not be entitled to designate the following Portfolio Assets as “Zero-Value Portfolio Assets” solely on the basis of clause (d) of the Zero-Value Designation Criteria: Applied Merchant Systems, Tax Defense Network and Orchid Underwriters Agency LLC and (ii) Buyer shall not be entitled to designate the following Portfolio Assets as “Zero-Value Portfolio Assets” solely on the basis of clause (e) of the Zero-Value Designation Criteria: CIG Financial, EagleRider and Interblock.   (c)          Any Portfolio Asset that is deemed to be a Zero-Value Portfolio Asset as a result of Seller's failure to comply with the requirements described in "Third Party Valuations" below until an Eligible Valuation is provided in respect thereof in accordance with this Confirmation;   (d)          Any Portfolio Asset which (i) together with any other Portfolio Assets, has resulted in a breach of any of the Portfolio Criteria that has not been remedied within five (5) Business Days of Buyer notifying Seller thereof or Seller otherwise becoming aware thereof and (ii) Buyer, acting in its sole discretion exercised in good faith at any time thereafter (the exercise of which discretion shall not be affected by any prior exercise thereof by or other actions or omissions of Buyer), has notified Seller shall constitute a "Zero-Value Portfolio Asset" as a result of such breach; provided that Buyer shall only be entitled to designate a portion of the relevant Portfolio Assets as "Zero-Value Portfolio Assets" under this clause (d) with an “Aggregate Principal Balance” (as defined in the Indenture) that is equal to the extent of such non-compliance;

15

	(e)          Any Portfolio Asset that does not at the time of acquisition by the Issuer satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 12.2(a) of the Indenture; and (f)           Any Portfolio Asset with respect to which either (i) Seller took, agreed or consented to any action set out in Section 2(o) of the Collateral Management Agreement, without providing the Buyer with either of the “Restructuring Notices” (as defined in the Collateral Management Agreement) within the timeframes set out therein, or (ii) unless the taking of the relevant action has otherwise already resulted in the relevant Portfolio Asset constituting a Zero-Value Portfolio Asset under clause (b)(i)(A) above, Seller took, agreed or consented to any of the actions set out in paragraphs (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) of Section 2(o) of the Collateral Management Agreement without first obtaining the prior written consent of Buyer (acting in its capacity as Liquidation Agent (as defined in the Indenture)).

Dispute Rights:

Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to Seller, if Seller in good faith has a commercially reasonable basis for disagreement with the Calculation Agent’s determination of the Current Price of any Portfolio Asset, then Seller may dispute such determination by giving notice of such dispute (a "Dispute Notice") to Buyer and the Calculation Agent no later than (i) if Seller receives notice of the Calculation Agent's determination of a Current Price in dispute at or prior to noon (New York time) on any Business Day, by the close of business on such Business Day and (ii) if Seller receives notice of the Calculation Agent's determination of a Current Price in dispute after noon (New York time) on any Business Day, by noon (New York time) on the following Business Day. Any such Dispute Notice shall specify, in reasonable detail, the bid-side market price Seller believes should be attributed to any such Portfolio Asset, along with reasonable evidence supporting such value. Promptly following delivery of a Dispute Notice in relation to any Portfolio Asset, the Calculation Agent and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to try to agree to the disputed Current Price. If by 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day following the day on which the Dispute Notice is delivered, the Calculation Agent and Seller are unable to agree, then: (i)          each of the Calculation Agent and Seller shall seek bids actionable by Buyer from an Approved Dealer selected by the entity seeking the bid for the face amount of such disputed Portfolio Asset (exclusive of accrued interest); and, if such bids are submitted to the Calculation Agent by 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on such Business Day, then the arithmetic average of the bids obtained (if any) or the bid obtained (where only one bid is obtained) shall be used for purposes of setting the Current Price of such disputed Portfolio Asset with respect to the day such bid is received; and (ii)         if bids cannot be obtained as provided in the preceding paragraph (i) with respect to any disputed Portfolio Asset by the deadline specified in such paragraph: (A)         Seller shall request that CTS Capital Advisors, LLC ("CTS Valuer"), or such other party as agreed by the Calculation Agent and Seller (CTS Valuer or such other party, the "Alternate Valuation Company"), provide an Eligible Valuation to the Calculation Agent;

19

(B)         if (1) no such Eligible Valuation is received by the Calculation Agent from the Alternate Valuation Company by 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Business Day following such request or (2) the Calculation Agent in good faith has a commercially reasonable basis to disagree with the Alternate Valuation Company's Eligible Valuation and the Calculation Agent notifies Seller and the Calculation Agent of such disagreement on the day such Eligible Valuation is received by the Calculation Agent (the earlier of such fifth Business Day and the day of such notification, the "Notification Day"), then no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day next following the Notification Day, the Calculation Agent shall deliver a request to Lincoln International or its successor (the "Back-Up Valuation Company") to provide an Eligible Valuation for such disputed Portfolio Asset; and

(C)         the Current Price in relation to such disputed Portfolio Asset shall be:

(1)          if the Alternate Valuation Company provides an Eligible Valuation and the Calculation Agent does not provide a request in accordance with sub-clause (B) above, the Resolved Current Price in relation to the Eligible Valuation provided by the Alternate Valuation Company;

(2)          if the Calculation Agent provides a request in accordance with sub-clause (B) above and the Back-Up Valuation Company provides an Eligible Valuation for such disputed Portfolio Asset by no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Business Day following such request, the Resolved Current Price in relation to the Eligible Valuation provided by the Back-Up Valuation Company;

(3) if the Calculation Agent provides a request for the Back-Up Valuation Company as a result of the event described in sub-clause (B)(1) above and the Back-Up Valuation Company fails to provide an Eligible Valuation for such disputed Portfolio Asset by no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Business Day following such request, the Current Price originally determined by the Calculation Agent; and

20

(4) if the Calculation Agent provides a request for the Back-Up Valuation Company following the delivery of a notice to Seller in accordance with sub-clause (B)(2) above and the Back-Up Valuation Company fails to provide an Eligible Valuation for such disputed Portfolio Asset by no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Business Day following such request, the Eligible Valuation provided by the Alternative Valuation Company.

If Seller has delivered a Dispute Notice, during the pendency of such dispute, the Parties shall be required to deliver or return (as applicable) margin based on the Calculation Agent’s original determination in accordance with this Confirmation; provided that, following resolution of the dispute, the Parties shall be required to deliver or return (as applicable) margin based on the Current Price so determined. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to the dispute of the Current Price of any Portfolio Asset, upon the determination of such Current Price in accordance with the foregoing, the Calculation Agent shall recalculate the relevant Market Value of the related Purchased Securities using such Current Price for such Portfolio Asset.

"Eligible Valuation" shall mean, with respect to any disputed Portfolio Asset, a valuation (which may be quoted in a range of values) for the outstanding principal amount of such Portfolio Asset (expressed as a percentage of par) that would be received from the sale of such Portfolio Asset on the date such valuation is provided, exclusive of accrued interest and capitalized interest; and

21

	"Resolved Current Price" shall be, with respect to any Eligible Valuation that is: (I)          quoted as a range of values where the difference between the lowest and highest values in such range (each expressed as a percentage of par) is an amount greater than 5% of par, as determined by the Calculation Agent, the lowest value in such range; (II)         quoted as a range of values where the difference between the lowest and highest values in such range (each expressed as a percentage of par) is an amount less than or equal to 5% of par, as determined by the Calculation Agent, the mid-point between the lowest and highest value in such range, as determined by the Calculation Agent; and (III)        not quoted as a range of values, such Eligible Valuation.
Interest on Cash Margin:	The interest rate applicable to Cash Margin shall be a rate per annum equal to the overnight Federal Funds (Effective) Rate for each day cash is held as Margin hereunder, as reported in Federal Reserve Publication H.15-519. Such interest will be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and compounding and shall be payable on the first Business Day of each calendar month, on each Prepayment Date (to the extent that it has accrued on the Cash Margin transferred in respect of the applicable Prepayment Amount) and on the Repurchase Date.
Substitutions:	No substitutions of Purchased Securities shall be permitted.

3 Fees

Transaction Fees:	On each Transaction Fee Payment Date, for each Purchased Security, Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the Transaction Fee Amount for such Purchased Security for the related Transaction Fee Period.

22

Transaction Fee Amounts:

For each Purchased Security, the Transaction Fee Amount payable by Seller on a Transaction Fee Payment Date shall be equal to the aggregate amount obtained by application of the Transaction Fee Rate for the related Transaction Fee Period, on an actual/360 basis, on each day during the related Transaction Fee Period to the Purchase Price outstanding for such Purchased Security; provided that if an early Repurchase Date occurs with respect to a Purchased Security, such calculation shall be made using the daily average of the Purchase Price for such Purchased Security during the applicable Transaction Fee Period (being the result of (x) the aggregate of the Purchase Price as of the close of business on each Business Day during such Transaction Fee Period divided by (y) the number of Business Days in such Transaction Fee Period).

Transaction Fee Rate:

For each Transaction Fee Period, a rate per annum equal to the sum of (a) LIBOR determined on the Reset Date for such Transaction Fee Period plus (b) the Spread. Where: Notwithstanding paragraph 2(y) of the Agreement, "LIBOR", for any Reset Date, means the London Interbank Offered Rate for the Relevant Period in respect of USD as quoted on the Bloomberg Screen BTMM Page (or such other page as may replace the Bloomberg Screen BTMM Page) under the heading "LIBOR-FIX-BBAM<GO>" (or any replacement heading) as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the day (the "Determination Date") that is two London banking days preceding such date. If such rate does not appear on the Bloomberg Screen BTMM Page (or any replacement page) under such heading (or any replacement heading), as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Determination Date, LIBOR will be determined by the Calculation Agent. For any Transaction Fee Period that is less than the Relevant Period, LIBOR shall be determined through the use of straight line interpolation by reference to two rates based on LIBOR, one of which shall be determined as if the Relevant Period were the period of time for which rates are available next shorter than the length of the Transaction Fee Period and the other of which shall be determined as if the Relevant Period were the period of time for which rates are available next longer than the length of the Transaction Fee Period. "Relevant Period" means three months. "Reset Date" with respect to any Transaction Fee Period, means the first day of such Transaction Fee Period. "Spread" means 3.90%.
