Such payment shall be disbursed to the receiver, conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy named in the Order, and not to the Indenture Trustee or the Holder directly, unless the Indenture Trustee or the relevant Holder has made a payment of the Preference Amount to the court or such receiver, conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy named in the Order, in

which case the Insurer will pay the Indenture Trustee, or as directed by the Indenture Trustee, to the extent of the payment of the Preference Amount, subject to the delivery of (a) the items referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) above to the Insurer and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Insurer that payment has been made to such court or receiver, conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy named in the Order.

10. Miscellaneous.

(a) This Policy sets forth the full understanding of Ambac. The Policy is noncancelable by Ambac for any reason, including failure to receive payment of any premium due hereunder.

ANY PERSON WHO KNOWINGLY AND WITH INTENT TO DEFRAUD ANY INSURANCE COMPANY OR OTHER PERSON FILES AN APPLICATION FOR INSURANCE OR STATEMENT OF CLAIM CONTAINING ANY MATERIALLY FALSE INFORMATION, OR CONCEALS FOR THE PURPOSE OF MISLEADING, INFORMATION CONCERNING ANY FACT MATERIAL THERETO, COMMITS A FRAUDULENT INSURANCE ACT, WHICH IS A CRIME AND SHALL ALSO BE
