Without prejudice to the effectiveness of any 22 service of the Sixth Issuer Note Enforcement Notice, the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall serve a copy of any Sixth Issuer Note Enforcement Notice on: (a) the Sixth Issuer Liquidity Facility Provider; (b) Funding; (c) each of the Rating Agencies; (d) the Sixth Issuer Account Banks and the Sixth Issuer Cash Manager; (e) the Paying Agents, the Swiss Paying Agents, the Registrar, the Transfer Agent and the Agent Bank; (f) the Dollar Currency Swap Provider, the Euro Currency Swap Provider and the Swiss Franc Currency Swap Provider; (g) the Corporate Services Provider; and (h) the Note Trustee. 9.3 AMOUNTS DUE The Sixth Issuer Secured Obligations shall become due for the purposes of Section 101 of the 1925 Act and the statutory power of sale and of appointing a Receiver which are conferred on the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee under the 1925 Act (as varied or extended by this Deed) only (and for no other purpose) and all other powers shall be deemed to arise immediately after execution of this Deed. 9.4 POWER OF SALE Section 103 of the 1925 Act shall not apply in relation to any of the charges contained in this Deed and the statutory power of sale (as extended by this Deed) and all other powers shall be exercisable at any time after the occurrence of a Sixth Issuer Note Event of Default. 9.5 LAW OF PROPERTY ACT 1925 The provisions of the 1925 Act relating to the power of sale and the other powers conferred by Section 101(1) and (2) are hereby extended in relation to the Sixth Issuer (as if such extensions were contained therein) to authorise the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee at its absolute discretion at any time following the occurrence of a Sixth Issuer Note Event of Default and subject to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee being satisfied as to the indemnification available to it in relation to the exercise of such powers: (a) to make demand in the name of the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors or in its own right for any monies and liabilities in respect of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property; (b) to sell the Sixth Issuer's title to or interest in the Sixth Issuer Charged Property, and to do so for any shares, debentures or other securities whatsoever, or in consideration of an agreement to pay all or part of the purchase price at a later date or dates, or an agreement to make periodical payments, whether or not the agreement is secured by an Encumbrance or a guarantee, or for such other consideration whatsoever as the 23 Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may think fit, and also to grant any option to purchase, and to effect exchanges of, any of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property; (c) with a view to or in connection with the sale of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property, to carry out any transaction, scheme or arrangement which the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may, in its absolute discretion, consider appropriate; (d) to insure the Sixth Issuer Charged Property against such risks and for such amounts as the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may consider prudent; and (e) to do all or any of the things or exercise all or any of the powers which are mentioned or referred to in CLAUSE 10.6 (Powers) as if each of them was expressly conferred on the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee by this Deed and which may not be included in PARAGRAPHS (A) to (D) above. 9.6 DELEGATION TO RECEIVER In addition and without prejudice to any of its statutory powers, the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may at any time by deed delegate to the Receiver all or any of the extended powers of leasing, surrendering or accepting surrenders of leases conferred on the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee by this Deed. 9.7 ADDITIONAL POWERS The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall have the power to insure against any liabilities or obligations arising: (a) as a result of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee acting or failing to act in a certain way (other than which may arise from its negligence or wilful default or that of its officers or employees); (b) as a result of any act or failure to act by any person or persons to whom the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee has delegated any of its trusts, rights, powers, duties, authorities or discretions, or appointed as its agent (other than which may arise from such person's negligence or wilful default); (c) in connection with the Sixth Issuer Charged Property; or (d) in connection with or arising from the enforcement of the security created by this Deed. The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall not be under any obligation to insure in respect of such liabilities and/or obligations or to require any other person to maintain insurance, but to the extent that it does so, the Sixth Issuer shall quarterly and on written request pay all insurance premiums and expenses which the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may properly incur in relation to such insurance. If the Sixth Issuer fails to reimburse the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee, the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall be entitled to be indemnified out of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property in respect thereof and, in the case of a Sixth Issuer Note Enforcement Notice having been served, the indemnification of all such insurance premiums and expenses shall be payable in priority to payments to the Sixth Issuer Noteholders and all other Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors and otherwise in accordance with this Deed. 24 9.8 APPLICATION TO COURT The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may at any time after the occurrence of a Sixth Issuer Note Event of Default apply to the Court for an order that the powers and trusts of this Deed be exercised or carried into execution under the direction of the Court and for the appointment of a Receiver of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property or any part thereof and for any other order in relation to the execution and administration of the powers and trusts hereof as the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall deem expedient, and it may assent to or approve any application to the Court made at the instance of any of the Sixth Issuer Noteholders. 9.9 AUTHORISED INVESTMENTS Any monies which under the trusts of this Deed ought to or may be invested by the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee after the occurrence of a Sixth Issuer Note Event of Default may be invested in the name or under the control of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee in any Authorised Investments and the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may at any time vary or transfer any of such Authorised Investments for or into other such Authorised Investments as the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee at its absolute discretion may determine, and shall not be responsible (save where any loss results from the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee's fraud, wilful default or negligence or that of its officers or employees) for any loss occasioned by reason of any such investments whether by depreciation in value or otherwise, provided that such Authorised Investments were made in accordance with the foregoing provisions. 9.10 DEFICIENCY OR ADDITIONAL PAYMENT The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall have no responsibility whatsoever to any Sixth Issuer Secured Creditor as regards any deficiency or additional payment, as the case may be, which might arise because the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee is subject to any Tax in respect of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property or any part thereof or any income therefrom or any proceeds thereof or is required to make any withholding or deduction from any payment to any Sixth Issuer Secured Creditor. 9.11 APPLICATION OF FUNDS If, after the service of a Sixth Issuer Note Enforcement Notice, the amount of the monies at any time available for payment of principal and interest in respect of any Sixth Issuer Notes under CLAUSE 6 (Payments out of Sixth Issuer Bank Accounts upon enforcement) shall be less than one-tenth of the Principal Amount Outstanding of all the Sixth Issuer Notes then outstanding, the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may, at its absolute discretion, invest such monies to the extent that it is permitted to do so under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 in any Authorised Investments and the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may at any time vary or transfer any of such Authorised Investments for or into other such Authorised Investments as the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee at its absolute discretion may determine; and such investments with the resulting income thereof may be accumulated until the accumulations, together with any other funds for the time being under the control of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee and applicable for the purpose, shall amount to a sum equal to at least one-tenth of the Principal Amount Outstanding of all the Sixth Issuer Notes then outstanding and such accumulations and funds shall then be applied in accordance with CLAUSE 6 (Payments out of the Sixth Issuer Bank Accounts upon Enforcement). 25 10. RECEIVER 10.1 APPOINTMENT At any time following the occurrence of a Sixth Issuer Note Event of Default, the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may, at its absolute discretion, appoint, by writing or by deed, such person or persons (including an officer or officers of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee) as the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee thinks fit, to be Receiver, of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property of the Sixth Issuer or any part thereof and, in the case of an appointment of more than one person, to act together or independently of the other or others. 10.2 REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT Except as otherwise required by statute, the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may by writing or by deed remove a Receiver and appoint another in its place or to act with a Receiver and the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may apply to the court for an order removing an administrative receiver. 10.3 EXTENT OF APPOINTMENT The exclusion of any part of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property from the appointment of the Receiver shall not preclude the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee from subsequently extending its appointment (or that of the Receiver replacing it) to that part of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property or appointing another Receiver over any other part of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property. 10.4 AGENT OF THE SIXTH ISSUER The Receiver shall be the agent of the Sixth Issuer and the Sixth Issuer alone shall be responsible for the Receiver's contracts, engagements, acts, omissions, misconduct, negligence or default and for liabilities incurred by him and in no circumstances whatsoever shall the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee be in any way responsible for or incur any liability in connection with his contracts, engagements, acts, omissions, misconduct, negligence or default, and if a liquidator of the Sixth Issuer shall be appointed, the Receiver shall act as principal and not as agent for the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee. Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, such Receiver shall in the exercise of his powers, authorities and discretions conform to the regulations (if any) from time to time made and given in writing by the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee. 10.5 REMUNERATION The remuneration of the Receiver shall be fixed by the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee and may be or include a commission calculated by reference to the gross amount of all monies received or otherwise and may include remuneration in connection with claims, actions or proceedings made or brought against the Receiver by the Sixth Issuer or any other person or the performance or discharge of any obligation imposed upon him by statute or otherwise, but subject to CLAUSE 6 (Payments out of the Sixth Issuer Bank Accounts upon Enforcement), such remuneration shall be payable hereunder by the Sixth Issuer. The amount of such remuneration shall be paid in accordance with the terms and conditions and in the manner agreed from time to time between the Receiver and the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee. 26 10.6 POWERS The Receiver of the Sixth Issuer, in addition to any powers conferred on a Receiver by statute or common law, shall have the following powers: (a) to take possession of, get in and collect the Sixth Issuer Charged Property (or such part thereof in respect of which it may be appointed) or any part thereof including income whether accrued before or after the date of his appointment; (b) to carry on, manage, concur in or authorise the management of, or appoint a manager of, the whole or any part of the business of the Sixth Issuer; (c) to sell, exchange, license, surrender, release, disclaim, abandon, return or otherwise dispose of or in any way whatsoever deal with the Sixth Issuer Charged Property or any interest in the Sixth Issuer Charged Property or any part thereof for such consideration (if any) and upon such terms (including by deferred payment or payment by instalments) as it may think fit and to concur in any such transaction; (d) to sell or concur in selling the whole or any part of the Sixth Issuer's business whether as a going concern or otherwise; (e) to appoint, engage, dismiss or vary the terms of employment of any employees, officers, managers, agents and advisers of the Sixth Issuer upon such terms as to remuneration and otherwise and for such periods as he may determine;

(k) to redeem, discharge or compromise any Encumbrance from time to time having priority to or ranking pari passu with this Deed; (l) to effect or maintain indemnity insurance and other insurance (including without limitation the Insurance Policies) and obtain bonds and performance guarantees; 27 (m) in connection with the exercise of any of its powers, to execute or do, or cause or authorise to be executed or done, on behalf of or in the name of the Sixth Issuer or otherwise, as it may think fit, all documents, receipts, registrations, acts or things which it may consider appropriate; (n) to exercise any powers, discretions, voting, conversion or other rights or entitlements in relation to any of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property or incidental to the ownership of or rights in or to any of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property and to complete or effect any transaction entered into by the Sixth Issuer and complete, disclaim, abandon or modify all or any of the outstanding contracts or arrangements of the Sixth Issuer relating to or affecting the Sixth Issuer Charged Property; (o) to exercise all powers as are described in Schedule 1 to the Insolvency Act 1986, whether or not the Receiver is an "administrative receiver" as defined in that Act; (p) to delegate its powers by way of power of attorney or in any other manner to any person any right, power or discretion exercisable by it under this Deed on the terms (including the power to sub-delegate) and subject to any regulations which such Receiver may think fit and such Receiver shall not be liable or responsible in any way to the Sixth Issuer or the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee for any loss or liability arising from any act, default, omission or misconduct on the part of any such delegate or sub-delegate;

The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may pay over to the Receiver any monies constituting part of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property to the intent that the same may be applied for the purposes referred to in CLAUSE 6 (Payments out of the Sixth Issuer Bank Accounts upon 28 Enforcement) by such Receiver and the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may from time to time determine what funds the Receiver shall be at liberty to keep in hand with a view to the performance of his duties as such Receiver. 11. PROTECTION OF THIRD PARTIES 11.1 ENQUIRY No purchaser from, or other person dealing with, the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or a Receiver shall be concerned to enquire whether any of the powers exercised or purported to be exercised has arisen or become exercisable, whether the Sixth Issuer Secured Obligations remain outstanding or have become payable, whether the Receiver is authorised to act or as to the propriety or validity of the exercise or purported exercise of any power; and the title of such a purchaser and the position of such a person shall not be impeachable by reference to any of those matters and the protections contained in Sections 104 to 107 of the 1925 Act shall apply to any person purchasing from or dealing with a Receiver or the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee. 11.2 RECEIPTS The receipt of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver shall be an absolute and a conclusive discharge to a purchaser and shall relieve him of any obligation to see to the application of any monies paid to or by the direction of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver. 12. PROTECTION OF SIXTH ISSUER SECURITY TRUSTEE AND RECEIVER 12.1 LIABILITY Neither the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee nor the Receiver of the Sixth Issuer shall be liable to the Sixth Issuer in the absence of breach of the terms of this Deed by them, or wilful default, fraud, negligence or wilful misconduct on their part or that of their officers, employees or agents in respect of any loss or damage which arises out of the exercise or the attempted or purported exercise of or failure to exercise any of their respective powers. 12.2 POSSESSION Without prejudice to the generality of CLAUSE 12.3 (Mortgagee in Possession), entry into possession of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property of the Sixth Issuer shall not render the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver of that company liable to account as mortgagee in possession. If and whenever the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver enters into possession of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property, it shall be entitled at any time to go out of such possession. 12.3 MORTGAGEE IN POSSESSION Neither the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee nor the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors shall, by reason of any assignment or other security made under this Deed, be or be deemed to be a mortgagee in possession nor shall they take any action (other than, in the case of the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors, with the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee's prior written consent) which would be likely to lead to the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors or the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee becoming a mortgagee in possession in respect of any property referred to in this Deed. The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee, in its absolute discretion, may at any time, serve 29 a written notice on the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors requiring the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors from the date such notice is served to obtain the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee's prior written consent before taking any action which would be likely to lead to the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors or the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee becoming a mortgagee in possession in respect of any property referred to in this Deed. 13. EXPENSES AND INDEMNITY 13.1 EXPENSES The Sixth Issuer covenants with and undertakes to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee to reimburse or pay to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver of the Sixth Issuer (on the basis of a full indemnity) the amount of all costs (including legal costs), charges and expenses (including insurance premiums) properly incurred or sustained by the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any such costs, charges and expenses arising from any act or omission of, or proceedings involving, any Fourth person) in connection with: (a) the exercise or the attempted exercise, or the consideration of the exercise by or on behalf of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver of any of the powers of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver, and the enforcement, preservation or attempted preservation of this Deed (or any of the charges contained in or granted pursuant to it) or any of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property or any other action taken by or on behalf of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver with a view to or in connection with the recovery by the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver of the Sixth Issuer Secured Obligations from the Sixth Issuer or any other person; or (b) the carrying out of any other act or matter which the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver may reasonably consider to be necessary for the preservation, improvement or benefit of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property. 13.2 INDEMNITY The Sixth Issuer agrees to indemnify the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee and the Receiver of the Sixth Issuer, on an after-Tax basis, from and against all losses, actions, claims, costs (including legal costs on a full indemnity basis), expenses (including insurance premiums), demands and liabilities whether in contract, tort, delict or otherwise now or hereafter properly sustained or incurred by the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver or by any person for whose liability, act or omission the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver may be answerable, in connection with anything done or omitted to be done under or pursuant to this Deed or any other Transaction Document to which such entity is a party, or in the exercise or purported exercise of the powers herein contained, or occasioned by any breach by the Sixth Issuer of any of its covenants or other obligations to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee, or in consequence of any payment in respect of the Sixth Issuer Secured Obligations (whether made by the Sixth Issuer or a third person) being declared void or impeached for any reason whatsoever save where the same arises as the result of the fraud, negligence or wilful default of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver or their respective officers or employees or breach by the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver or their respective officers or employees of the terms of this Deed. 30 13.3 TAXES All sums payable by the Sixth Issuer under this Deed are deemed to be exclusive of any amount in respect of VAT. If, pursuant to any provision of this Deed, the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver of the Sixth Issuer makes any taxable or deemed taxable supply to the Sixth Issuer, then the Sixth Issuer shall pay to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver of the Sixth Issuer (as the case may be) (in addition to the consideration for the supply) an amount equal to the VAT charged in respect of such taxable or deemed taxable supply against production of a valid VAT invoice. If the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver of the Sixth Issuer shall make any payment for a taxable or deemed taxable supply to it pursuant to or in connection with this Deed and any such payment shall bear VAT which is Irrecoverable VAT the Sixth Issuer shall indemnify the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver of the Sixth Issuer (as the case may be) on demand for an amount equal to such Irrecoverable VAT so far as it has not been taken into account in computing the amount of any payment made by the Sixth Issuer to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or the Receiver of the Sixth Issuer under any other indemnity contained in this Deed. 13.4 INTEREST All sums payable by the Sixth Issuer under CLAUSES 25.3 (Disputes), 25.4 (Expenses) and 25.5 (Indemnity) shall be payable on demand and: (a) in the case of payments actually made by the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee prior to the demand, shall carry interest at the rate per annum which is 1 per cent. per annum higher than the base rate of the Agent Bank for the time being from the first Business Day following the date of the same being demanded to the date of actual payment (provided that such demand shall be made on a Business Day, otherwise interest shall be payable from the second Business Day following the date of the demand to the date of actual payment); and (b) in all other cases, shall carry interest at such rate from the date 14 days after the date of the same being demanded or (where the demand specifies that payment by the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee will be made on an earlier date provided such earlier date is a business day) from such earlier date (not being earlier than the Business Day following the date of such demand) to the date of actual payment. Any amounts payable pursuant to CLAUSES 25.1 and 25.2 (Remuneration, Additional Remuneration) shall carry interest at the aforesaid rate from the due date thereof to the date of actual payment. 13.5 STAMP DUTIES The Sixth Issuer shall, to the extent permitted by applicable United Kingdom law, pay all stamp duties and other duties or documentary Taxes of a similar nature, including for the avoidance of doubt any duty levied under the Stamp Act 1891 as amended and supplemented, (if any) payable on or arising out of or in consequence of: (a) the creation of the security constituted by or pursuant to this Deed; and (b) the execution and delivery of this Deed and documents executed pursuant hereto and the other Sixth Issuer Transaction Documents (except where such obligation to pay 31 such stamp duties and other duties on documentary Taxes of a similar nature is expressed to be the obligation of any other party to the Sixth Issuer Transaction Documents). 14. PROTECTION OF SECURITY The Sixth Issuer further covenants with and undertakes to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee from time to time (and, for the purposes mentioned in PARAGRAPH (A) below, notwithstanding that the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may not have served a Sixth Issuer Note Enforcement Notice) upon demand to execute, at the Sixth Issuer's own cost any document or do any act or thing (other than any amendment hereto ___) which the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may specify: (a) with a view to registering or perfecting any charge or other security created or intended to be created by or pursuant to this Deed (including the perfecting of the conversion of any floating charge to a fixed charge pursuant to CLAUSE 15.1 (Notice) or 15.2 (Automatic Crystallisation)); or (b) with a view to facilitating the exercise or the proposed exercise of any of their powers or the realisation of any of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property; or (c) with a view to protecting the encumbrances created by or pursuant to this Deed, provided that the Sixth Issuer shall not be obliged to execute any further documentation or take any other action or steps to the extent that it would breach a restriction in any such agreement to which it is party relating to assignment, transferring, charging or sharing of possession/rights of such benefit. 15. CRYSTALLISATION 15.1 NOTICE In addition and without prejudice to any other event resulting in a crystallisation of the floating charge created by this Deed or any other right the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may have, the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may, at any time, if: (a) a Potential Sixth Issuer Note Event of Default is subsisting and has not been waived; or (b) the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee reasonably believes that the Sixth Issuer Charged Property or any part thereof is in danger of being seized or sold under any form of distress or execution levied or threatened or is otherwise in jeopardy or imperilled or any circumstance shall occur which in the reasonable opinion of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee, imperils or will imperil the security created by this Deed or the Sixth Issuer takes or threatens to take any action that would be prejudicial to the security or would be inconsistent with the security created hereby, by notice in writing to the Sixth Issuer declare that the floating charge hereby created shall be converted into a first specific fixed charge as to all of the undertaking, property and assets or such of them as may be specified in the notice, and by way of further assurance, the Sixth Issuer, at its own expense, shall execute all documents in such form as the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall require and shall deliver to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee all 32 conveyances, deeds, certificates and documents which may be necessary to perfect such first specific fixed charge. 15.2 AUTOMATIC CRYSTALLISATION In addition and without prejudice to any other event resulting in a crystallisation of the floating charge, the floating charge contained herein shall automatically be converted into a fixed charge over all property, assets or undertaking of the Sixth Issuer subject to the floating charge, if and when: (a) an Sixth Issuer Event of Default occurs; (b) the Sixth Issuer ceases to carry on all or a substantial part of its business or ceases to be a going concern or thereafter to do any of the foregoing; (c) the Sixth Issuer stops making payments to its creditors or gives notice to creditors that it intends to stop payment; (d) the holder of any other Encumbrance in relation to the Sixth Issuer, whether ranking in priority to or pari passu with or after the charges contained in this Deed, appoints a Receiver; or (e) any floating charge granted by the Sixth Issuer to any other person (whether permitted by the Sixth Issuer Transaction Documents or not) crystallises for any reason whatsoever. 15.3 FAILURE OF PETITION FOR ADMINISTRATION OR WINDING-UP If any petition for the administration or winding-up of the Sixth Issuer is dismissed or withdrawn or a resolution for winding-up the Sixth Issuer is not passed by the necessary majority, then without prejudice to any rights exercisable otherwise than in consequence of the presentation of such petition or resolution and subject to anything done in the meantime in pursuance of the powers given by this Deed and subject to the provisions contained in this Deed as to costs charges and expenses incurred and payments made, possession of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property will be restored to the Sixth Issuer, and the Sixth Issuer and all persons concerned will be remitted to their original rights provided that the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee is satisfied that its security position at that time is not materially different to that as at the date of this Deed. 16. POWER OF ATTORNEY, ETC. 16.1 EXECUTION OF POWER OF ATTORNEY Immediately upon execution of this Deed, the Sixth Issuer shall execute and deliver to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee the power of attorney in or substantially in the form set out in Schedule 1. For the avoidance of doubt, the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee confirms that it may only exercise the powers conferred under the power of attorney in the circumstances set out in paragraph 1 of the power of attorney. 16.2 SIXTH ISSUER CHARGED PROPERTY ON TRUST To the extent permitted to do so under the Transaction Documents, for the purpose of giving effect to this Deed, the Sixth Issuer hereby declares that, after service of a Sixth Issuer Note 33 Enforcement Notice, it will hold all of its Sixth Issuer Charged Property (subject to the right of redemption) upon trust to convey, assign or otherwise deal with such Sixth Issuer Charged Property in such manner and to such person as the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall direct, and declares that it shall be lawful for the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee to appoint a new trustee or trustees of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property in place of the Sixth Issuer. 17.

SUPPLEMENTAL PROVISIONS REGARDING THE SIXTH ISSUER SECURITY TRUSTEE 24.1 ASSUMPTION OF NO DEFAULT Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall be and is hereby authorised to assume without enquiry, and it is hereby declared to be the intention of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee that it shall assume without enquiry, that the Sixth Issuer and each of the other parties thereto is duly performing and observing all the covenants and provisions contained in this Deed and the other Transaction Documents to be performed and observed on their parts and that no event has occurred which constitutes a Sixth Issuer Note Event of Default or a Potential Sixth Issuer Note Event of Default or which would cause a right or remedy to become exercisable, whether by Funding, the Sixth Issuer or the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee, under or in respect of any of the Transaction Documents. 47 24.2 DELEGATION The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may, in the execution of all or any of the trusts, powers, authorities and discretions vested in it by this Deed or any of the other Sixth Issuer Transaction Documents, act by responsible officers or a responsible officer for the time being of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee. The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may also, whenever it thinks expedient in the interests of the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors, whether by power of attorney or otherwise, delegate to any person or persons all or any of the trusts, rights, powers, duties, authorities and discretions vested in it by this Deed or any of the other Sixth Issuer Transaction Documents. Any such delegation may be made upon such terms and conditions and subject to such regulations (including power to sub-delegate) as the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may think fit in the interests of the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors or any of them and, provided that the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall have exercised reasonable care in the selection of such delegate and, where a power to sub-delegate has been given, has obliged the delegate to exercise reasonable care in the selection of any sub-delegate, the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall not be bound to supervise the proceedings of, or be responsible for any loss incurred by any misconduct or default on the part of, such delegate or sub-delegate. The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Sixth Issuer of the appointment of any delegate as aforesaid and shall procure that any delegate shall also give prompt notice of the appointment of any sub-delegate to the Sixth Issuer. 24.3 COMMERCIAL TRANSACTIONS The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall not, and no director, officer or employee of any corporation being a trustee hereof shall, by reason of the fiduciary position of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee, be in any way precluded from making any contracts or entering into any transactions in the ordinary course of business with the Sixth Issuer, Funding or Holdings or any other subsidiary of Holdings or any other party to the Sixth Issuer Transaction Documents or any other party to any of the Sixth Issuer Transaction Documents or from accepting the trusteeship of any stock, shares, debenture stock, debentures or securities of any such person. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly declared that such contracts and transactions include any contract or transaction in relation to the placing, underwriting, purchasing, subscribing for or dealing with or lending money upon or making payments in respect of any stock, shares, debenture stock, debentures or other securities of the Sixth Issuer, Funding or Holdings or any other subsidiary of Holdings or any other party to the Sixth Issuer Transaction Documents or any contract of banking or insurance with the Sixth Issuer, Funding or Holdings or any other subsidiary of Holdings or any other party to the Transaction Documents. Neither the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee nor any such director or officer of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall be accountable to any of the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors or the Sixth Issuer, Funding or Holdings for any profit, fees, commissions, interest, discounts or share of brokerage earned, arising or resulting from any such contracts or transactions. The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee and any such director, officer or employee shall be at liberty to retain the same for its or his own benefit. 24.4 ADDITIONAL POWERS The powers conferred by this Deed upon the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall be in addition to any powers which may from time to time be vested in it by general law. 48 24.5 DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF SIXTH ISSUER SECURITY TRUSTEE The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee has no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set out in this Deed or in the Transaction Documents. 24.6 CONSENT OF SIXTH ISSUER SECURITY TRUSTEE If a request is made to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee by the Sixth Issuer or any other person to give its consent to any event, matter or thing, then: (a) if the Sixth Issuer Transaction Document specifies that the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee is required to give its consent to that event, matter or thing if certain specified conditions are satisfied in relation to that event, matter or thing, then the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall give its consent to that event, matter or thing upon being satisfied acting reasonably that those specified conditions have been satisfied; and (b) in any other case, the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may give its consent if to do so would not, in its opinion, be materially prejudicial to the interests of the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors. 24.7 INTERESTS OF SIXTH ISSUER SECURED CREDITORS Where the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee is required to have regard to the interests of any Sixth Issuer Secured Creditor (other than the Noteholders), the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may consult with such Sixth Issuer Secured Creditor and may rely on the opinion of such Sixth Issuer Secured Creditor as to whether any act, matter or thing is or is not in the interests of, or materially prejudicial to the interests of, such Sixth Issuer Secured Creditor. 24.8 MODIFICATION TO TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may from time to time and at any time without any consent or sanction of the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors concur with any person in making or sanctioning any modification: (a) to any of the Transaction Documents which in the opinion of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee it may be expedient to make, provided that (i) the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee is of the opinion acting reasonably that such modification will not be materially prejudicial to the interests of the Noteholders; and (ii) the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee is of the opinion that such modification will not be materially prejudicial to the interests of the Sixth Issuer Liquidity Facility Provider or the Dollar Currency Swap Provider or the Euro Currency Swap Provider or the Swiss Franc Currency Swap Provider, as the case may be, or if it is not of that opinion in relation to the Sixth Issuer Liquidity Facility Provider or the Dollar Currency Swap Provider or the Euro Currency Swap Provider or the Swiss Franc Currency Swap Provider, as the case may be, or the steps required pursuant to CLAUSE 8 (Modification) have been taken and the Sixth Issuer Liquidity Facility Provider and the Dollar Currency Swap Provider or the Euro Currency Swap Provider or the Swiss Franc Currency Swap Provider, as the case may be, have consented or have been deemed to have consented to such modification; or (b) to any of the Transaction Documents which in the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee's opinion is made to correct a manifest error or is of a formal, minor or technical nature. 49 The Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors hereby acknowledge that any proposed modification made pursuant to PARAGRAPH (A) above will not be prejudicial to their respective interests merely because New Notes may be issued which may rank ahead, pari passu or below with the Sixth Issuer Notes or because additional secured creditors may accede to the Funding Deed of Charge who may rank ahead of any of the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors in terms of priority of payment thereunder. Any such modification shall be binding on the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors and, unless the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee otherwise agrees, notice thereof shall be given by the Sixth Issuer Cash Manager to the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors as soon as practicable thereafter. 24.9 AUTHORISATION OR WAIVER OF BREACH The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may, without the consent of the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors, without prejudice to its right in respect of any further or other breach, from time to time and at any time, but only if and in so far as (i) in its opinion acting reasonably the interests of the Sixth Issuer Noteholders will not be materially prejudiced thereby and (ii) in its opinion acting reasonably the interests of the Sixth Issuer Liquidity Facility Provider and the Sixth Issuer Swap Providers will not be materially prejudiced thereby or, if it is not of that opinion in relation to the Sixth Issuer Liquidity Facility Provider or the Sixth Issuer Swap Providers, the steps required pursuant to CLAUSE 8 (Modification) have been taken and the Sixth Issuer Liquidity Facility Provider and/or the Sixth Issuer Swap Providers have consented or have been deemed to have consented to such authorisation or waiver, authorise or waive, on such terms and conditions (if any) as shall seem expedient to it, any proposed or actual breach of any of the covenants or provisions contained in or arising pursuant to any of the Transaction Documents. Any such authorisation or waiver shall be binding on the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors and, unless the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee otherwise agrees, notice thereof shall be given by the Sixth Issuer Cash Manager to the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors as soon as practicable thereafter. 24.10 INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE The provisions of SCHEDULE 4 to the Sixth Issuer Trust Deed shall be deemed to be incorporated in this Deed but as if references therein to the Note Trustee were to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee. 25. REMUNERATION AND INDEMNIFICATION OF THE SIXTH ISSUER SECURITY TRUSTEE 25.1 REMUNERATION (a) The Sixth Issuer shall (subject as hereinafter provided) pay to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee annually a fee of such amount and payable on such dates as shall from time to time be agreed by the Sixth Issuer and the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee, provided that if and for so long as the Note Trustee and the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee are the same person, no such fee shall be payable under this Deed. All such remuneration shall be payable in accordance with the Sixth Issuer Pre-Enforcement Revenue Priority of Payments or, as the case may be, the Sixth Issuer Post-Enforcement Priority of Payments. Such remuneration shall accrue from day to day and be payable up to and including the date when all of the Sixth Issuer Secured Obligations have been paid or discharged and the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee has released, reassigned and/or discharged the Sixth Issuer Charged Property as provided in CLAUSE 4.1 (On Payment or Discharge of Sixth Issuer Secured Obligations). 50 (b) The Sixth Issuer shall in addition pay to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee an amount equal to the amount of any VAT chargeable in respect of its remuneration hereunder subject to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee issuing to the Sixth Issuer a proper VAT invoice in respect thereof. 25.2 ADDITIONAL REMUNERATION In the event of a Sixth Issuer Note Event of Default or Potential Sixth Issuer Note Event of Default occurring or in the event of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee finding it expedient or necessary or being required to undertake any duties which the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee and the Sixth Issuer agree to be of an exceptional nature or otherwise outside the scope of the normal duties of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee under this Deed, the Sixth Issuer shall pay to the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee such additional remuneration as shall be agreed between the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee and the Sixth Issuer. 25.3 DISPUTES In the event of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee and the Sixth Issuer failing to agree upon the amount of any remuneration from time to time pursuant to CLAUSE 25.1 (Remuneration) or to agree in a case to which CLAUSE 25.2 (Additional Remuneration) above applies, upon whether such duties are of an exceptional nature or otherwise outside the scope of the normal duties of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee hereunder or upon the amount of such additional remuneration, such matters shall be determined by a merchant bank (acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator) selected by the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee and approved by the Sixth Issuer or, failing such approval, nominated by the President for the time being of the Law Society of England and Wales, the expenses being involved in such nomination and the fees of such merchant bank being payable by the Sixth Issuer, and the decision of any such merchant bank shall be final and binding on the Sixth Issuer and the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee. 25.4 EXPENSES In addition to remuneration hereunder, the Sixth Issuer shall on written request, pay (on an indemnity basis) all other costs, charges and expenses which the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may properly incur in relation to the negotiation, preparation and execution of, the exercise of its powers and the performance of its duties under, and in any other manner in relation to, this Deed, the Sixth Issuer Security and any of the other Sixth Issuer Transaction Documents to which the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee is a party including but not limited to travelling and legal expenses and any stamp, issue, registration, documentary and other Taxes or duties paid or payable by the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee in connection with any action taken or contemplated by or on behalf of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee for enforcing, or resolving any doubt concerning, or for any other purpose in relation to, this Deed or any of the other Transaction Documents. 25.5 INDEMNITY Without prejudice to the right of indemnity by law given to trustees, the Sixth Issuer shall indemnify the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee, on an after Tax basis, in respect of all proceedings (including claims and liabilities in respect of taxes other than on its own overall net income), claims and demands and all costs, charges, expenses (including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, legal and travelling expenses), and liabilities to which it (or any person appointed by it to whom any trust, power, authority or discretion may be delegated by it in the execution or purported execution of the trusts, powers, authorities or 51 discretions vested in it by or pursuant to this Deed and any of the other Sixth Issuer Transaction Documents to which the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee is a party) may be or become liable or which may be properly incurred by it (or any such person as aforesaid) in the execution or purported execution of any of its trusts, powers, authorities and discretions hereunder or its functions under any such appointment or in respect of any other matter or thing done or omitted in any way relating to this Deed and any of the other Sixth Issuer Transaction Documents to which the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee is a party, or any such appointment and the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall be entitled to be indemnified out of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property in respect thereof save where the same arises as the result of the fraud, negligence or wilful default of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or its officers or employees. The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall not be entitled to be indemnified twice in respect of the same matter pursuant to this Clause and the indemnity contained in CLAUSE 13.2 (Indemnity) of this Deed. 25.6 SURVIVAL Unless otherwise specifically stated in any discharge of this Deed, the provisions of this CLAUSE 25 (Remuneration and Indemnification of the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee) shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the release, reassignment or discharge of the Sixth Issuer Charged Property by the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee as provided in CLAUSE 4.1 (On Payment or Discharge of Sixth Issuer Secured Obligations). 26. APPOINTMENT OF NEW SIXTH ISSUER SECURITY TRUSTEE AND REMOVAL OF SIXTH ISSUER SECURITY TRUSTEE 26.1 POWER OF SIXTH ISSUER (a) The power of appointing a new Sixth Issuer Security Trustee and removing the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee or any new Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall be vested in the Sixth Issuer, provided that such appointment or removal must be approved by (i) an Extraordinary Resolution of the Class A Sixth Issuer Noteholders, the Class B Sixth Issuer Noteholders and the Class C Sixth Issuer Noteholders; and (ii) by each Sixth Issuer Secured Creditor (such approval not to be reasonably withheld or delayed). A trust corporation may be appointed sole security trustee hereof but subject hereto there shall be at least two security trustees hereof. Any appointment of a new Sixth Issuer Security Trustee and any retirement or removal of an existing Sixth Issuer Security Trustee hereof shall as soon as practicable thereafter be notified by the Sixth Issuer to the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors. (b) Any new Sixth Issuer Security Trustee must (i) meet the requirements of section 26(a)(1) of the US Investment Company Act of 1940; (ii) not be an affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 of the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended) of the Sixth Issuer or of any person involved in the organisation or operation of the Sixth Issuer; (iii) not offer or provide credit or credit enhancement to the Sixth Issuer; and (iv) execute an agreement or instrument concerning the Sixth Issuer Notes containing provisions to the effect set forth in section 26(a)(3) of the US Investment Company Act of 1940. 26.2 POWER OF SIXTH ISSUER SECURITY TRUSTEE Notwithstanding the provisions of CLAUSE 26.1 (Power of Sixth Issuer), the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may (as attorney for the Sixth Issuer) upon giving prior notice to the Sixth Issuer but without the consent of the Sixth Issuer or the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors appoint any person established or resident in any jurisdiction (whether a trust corporation or 52 not) to act either as a separate security trustee or as a co-trustee jointly with the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee: (a) if the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee considers such appointment to be in the interests of the Sixth Issuer Secured Creditors (or any of them); (b) for the purposes of conforming to any legal requirement, restrictions or conditions in any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed or any Sixth Issuer Charged Property is or is to be located; or (c) for the purposes of obtaining a judgment in any jurisdiction or the enforcement in any jurisdiction of either a judgment already obtained or any of the provisions of this Deed or any of the other Transaction Documents to which the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee is a party or obligations arising pursuant thereto or any of the security constituted by or pursuant to this Deed. The Sixth Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee to be its attorney in its name and on its behalf to execute any such instrument of appointment. Such a person shall (subject always to the provisions of this Deed or any of the other Transaction Documents to which the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee is a party) have such trusts, powers, authorities and discretions (not exceeding those conferred on the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee by this Deed or any of the other Transaction Documents to which the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee is a party) and such duties and obligations as shall be conferred or imposed on it by the instrument of appointment. The Sixth Issuer Security Trustee shall have power in like manner to remove any such person. Such proper remuneration as the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee may pay to any such person, together with any attributable costs, charges and expenses incurred by it in performing its function as such separate trustee or co-trustee, shall for the purposes of this Deed be treated as costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee. 26.3 MULTIPLE TRUSTEES Whenever there shall be more than two security trustees hereof, the majority of such security trustees shall (provided such majority includes a trust corporation) be competent to execute and exercise all the trusts, powers, authorities and discretions vested by this Deed and any of the other Transaction Documents in the Sixth Issuer Security Trustee generally. 27. RETIREMENT OF SIXTH ISSUER SECURITY TRUSTEE Any security trustee for the time being of this Deed may retire at any time upon giving not less than three months' prior notice in writing to the Sixth Issuer without assigning any reason therefor and without being responsible for any costs resulting from such retirement. The retirement or removal of any security trustee shall not become effective unless there remains at least one security trustee hereof being a trust corporation in office upon such retirement or removal. The Sixth Issuer covenants that, in the event of a security trustee (being a sole security trustee or the only trust corporation) giving notice under this Clause or being removed as referred to in CLAUSE 26.1 (Power of Sixth Issuer), it shall use its best endeavours to procure a new security trustee of this Deed (being a trust corporation) to be appointed as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. 53 28. TRUST INDENTURE ACT PREVAILS If any provision of this Deed limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision which is required to be included in this Deed by, and is not subject to a contractual waiver under, the U.S. Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, the required provision of that act shall prevail. 29.
