Provided that save in the case of the initial transfer to the Note Trustee or its nominee, no Loan Note may be transferred or encumbered without the prior written consent of the Security Trustee, the Transferors and any Additional Transferor (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). In addition, (i) the Loan Note Issuer must also have received, prior to such transfer or encumbrance taking effect, written confirmation from the person to which such transfer is to be made or in whose favour such encumbrance is to be granted or created that such transfer or encumbrance will not cause the holder of the Series 2005-B Loan Note to be a person other than a person in the United Kingdom, (ii) such transfer or encumbrance will not cause the number of persons in whose names the Loan Note will or have been registered in the Loan Note Register to exceed ten and (iii) the Loan Note Issuer shall be solely responsible for any costs, expenses or taxes which are incurred by the Loan Note Issuer, the Loan Note Holder or any other person in relation to making such transfer or encumbrance. 1.2.2 REGISTRATION AND DELIVERY OF LOAN NOTE CERTIFICATE Within five Business Days of the surrender of a Loan Note Certificate in accordance with Condition 1.2.1 above (or such longer period as may be required to comply with any applicable fiscal or other laws or regulations), the Registrar will register the transfer in question and deliver at the Registrar's specified office a new Loan Note Certificate with the same face value as the Loan Note Certificate being transferred to the transferee or (at the request and risk of the transferee) send by uninsured mail to such address as the transferee may specify for the purpose. - 19 - 1.2.3 CHARGE The Loan Note Issuer will be required to bear the costs and expenses of effecting any registration of a transfer or any exchange as provided above. 1.2.4 CLOSED PERIODS No Loan Note Holder may require transfers to be registered during the period of five Business Days ending on the due date for any payment of principal in respect of any Loan Note. 1.2.5 INITIAL REGISTRAR The Loan Note Issuer reserves the right at any time with the consent of the Security Trustee to vary or terminate the appointment of the Registrar and to appoint another Registrar.

STATUS OF THE LOAN NOTES AND PRIORITY SECURED CREDITORS 2.1 UNSUBORDINATED CLASSES OF LOAN NOTES 2.1.1 This Condition 2.1 is applicable only in relation to any Class of Loan Note which is specified on its face as being Unsubordinated. 2.1.2 In the case of an Unsubordinated Class of Loan Notes, the Loan Notes are secured, limited recourse obligations of the Loan Note Issuer, secured in the manner described in Condition 3 and recourse in respect of which is limited in the manner described in Condition 10 and will rank pari passu without any preference among themselves. 2.2 SUBORDINATED LOAN NOTES 2.2.1 This Condition 2.2 is applicable only in relation to any Class of Loan Note which is specified on is face as being Subordinated. 2.2.2 In the case of Subordinated Loan Notes, the subordination provisions will be set out in full in the relevant Loan Note Supplement. - 20 - 2.3 PRIORITY SECURED CREDITORS The Loan Note Holder, while any Associated Debt relating to Series 2005-B is outstanding, shall be the priority secured creditor (the "PRIORITY SECURED CREDITOR") of the Loan Note Issuer. The Priority Secured Creditor will enjoy preferential ranking in the order of priority of payments on enforcement of the relevant security or following a mandatory early redemption (as set out in Condition 6.2), and the Security Trustee shall, where the interests of such Priority Secured Creditor conflict with those of the other Secured Creditors (as defined in condition 3.1.2), prefer the interests of such Priority Secured Creditor over that of other Secured Creditors (and shall not take into account the interests of such other Secured Creditors). If, following a request as aforesaid and unless the Security Trustee has already taken action pursuant to such request which (in its sole discretion it determines) it would not be practical to reverse, the identity of the Priority Secured Creditor changes to another Secured Creditor, the Security Trustee shall in its absolute discretion and without liability therefore be entitled to take into account the request of such succeeding Priority Secured Creditor, but shall not be obliged to do so and shall not incur any liability for determining that it is impractical to take account of the change of identity of the Priority Secured Creditor. 3.

INTEREST AND OTHER CALCULATIONS 5.1 INTEREST AND ACCRUAL 5.1.1 Each Loan Note bears interest on its Principal Amount Outstanding (or as otherwise specified in the relevant Loan Note Supplement) from the Interest Commencement Date equal to the Interest Amount, such interest being payable in arrears (unless otherwise specified in the relevant Loan Note Supplement) on each Payment Date (as defined in Condition 5.4), and being notionally allocated by Class. 5.1.2 Interest will cease to accrue on each Loan Note on the due date for redemption unless, upon due presentation, payment of principal is improperly withheld or refused, in which event interest will continue to accrue (as well after as before judgment) in the manner provided in this Condition 5 to the Relevant Date. - 25 - 5.2 BUSINESS DAY CONVENTION If any date referred to in these Conditions which is specified to be subject to adjustment in accordance with a Business Day Convention would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Relevant Business Day, then if the Business Day Convention specified in such Condition is: 5.2.1 the Floating Rate Convention, such date shall be postponed to the next day which is a Relevant Business Day unless: (a) it would thereby fall into the next calendar month, in which event: (i) such date shall be brought forward to the immediately preceding Relevant Business Day; and (ii) each subsequent such date shall be the last Relevant Business Day of the month in which such date is due to fall; or (b) there is no such numerically corresponding day in the calendar month in which such date is proposed to fall in which event: (i) such date will be the last Relevant Business Day of the month in which such date is due to fall; and (ii) each subsequent such date shall be the last Relevant Business Day of the month in which such date is due to fall; 5.2.2 the Following Business Day Convention, such date shall be postponed to the next day which is a Relevant Business Day; 5.2.3 the Modified Following Business Day Convention, such date shall be postponed to the next day which is a Relevant Business Day unless it would thereby fall into the next calendar month, in which event such date shall be brought forward to the immediately preceding Relevant Business Day; or 5.2.4 the Preceding Business Day Convention, such date shall be brought forward to the immediately preceding Relevant Business Day. 5.3 DETERMINATION AND PUBLICATION OF INTEREST AMOUNTS, REDEMPTION AMOUNTS AND INSTALMENT AMOUNTS As soon as practicable on each Interest Determination Date or such other time on such date as the Jersey Account Bank Operator may be required to determine any Redemption Amount, determine the underlying interest rates and the Interest Amounts or obtain any quote or make any other determination or calculation in respect of each Loan Note for the relevant Interest Period, the Jersey Account Bank Operator shall, on the basis of information provided by the Receivables Trustee in accordance with Clause 5.1 (Information Covenant) of the relevant Loan Note Supplement, determine the Redemption Amount, obtain such quote or make such determination or calculation, as the case may be, and cause the Interest Amounts for each Interest Period and the relevant - 26 - Payment Date and, if required, the Redemption Amount to be notified, if the Loan Notes are listed on a stock exchange and such exchange so requires, to such exchange as soon as possible after their determination but in no event later than (i) the commencement of the relevant Interest Period, if determined prior to such time, in the case of an Interest Amount, or (ii) in all other cases, the fourth Relevant Business Day after such determination. The Interest Amounts and the Payment Date so published may subsequently be amended (or appropriate alternative arrangements made by way of adjustment) without notice in the event of an extension or shortening of the Interest Period. If the Loan Notes become due and payable under Condition 9, the accrued interest payable in respect of the Loan Notes shall nevertheless continue to be calculated as previously in accordance with this Condition but no publication of the Interest Amount so calculated need be made unless otherwise required by the Security Trustee. The determination of each Interest Amount and Redemption Amount, the obtaining of each quote and the making of each determination or calculation by the Jersey Account Bank Operator or, as the case may be, the Security Trustee pursuant to Condition 5.5, shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding upon all parties. 5.4 DEFINITIONS In these Conditions, unless the context otherwise requires, the following defined terms shall have the meanings set out below.

In that event, the Loan Note Issuer, the Jersey Account Bank Operator or the Security Trustee (as the case may be) shall make such payment after such withholding or deduction has been made and shall account to the relevant authorities for the amount so required to be withheld or deducted. Neither the Loan Note Issuer, nor the Jersey Account Bank Operator nor the Security Trustee will be obliged to make any additional payments to the Loan Note Holder, in respect of such withholding or deduction. The Loan Note Issuer or the Jersey Account Bank Operator may require the Loan Note Holders to provide such certifications and other documents as required by applicable law in order to qualify for exemptions from applicable tax laws. 9.

or 9.1.9 Unlawfulness: it is or will become unlawful for the Loan Note Issuer to perform or comply with any of its obligations under or in respect of the Loan Notes or the Related Documents; or 9.1.10 Government intervention: (i) all or any substantial part of the undertaking, assets and revenues of the Loan Note Issuer is condemned, seized or otherwise appropriated by any person acting under the authority of any national, regional or local government or (ii) the Loan Note Issuer is prevented by any such person from exercising normal control over all or any substantial part of its undertaking, assets and revenues, the Security constituted by the Security Trust Deed in respect of such Series shall immediately become enforceable (as provided in the Security Trust Deed). 9.2 The Security Trustee shall not be bound to take any such proceedings or steps as are contemplated by any provision of Clause 8 of the Trust Deed or any other proceedings pursuant to or in connection with the Trust Deed or any relevant Loan Note Supplement, the Loan Notes or any of them or to give any notice pursuant to Loan Note Condition 9 unless directed or requested to do so by the Note Trustee of a particular Series and then only if it shall have been indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction. 9.3 Subject to the Security Trustee being requested and/or directed by the Note Trustee of a particular Series and subject also to it having been indemnified and/or secured to its - 33 - satisfaction following the occurrence of a Loan Note Event of Default in respect of that Series, the Security Trustee shall be required to demand all amounts of principal and interest owing in respect of the Loan Notes to be paid immediately and to take such steps as it shall think fit to enforce any security it holds in relation to a particular Series. 9.4 VARIATION OF LOAN NOTE EVENTS OF DEFAULT The Loan Note Events of Default set out in the Series 2005-B Loan Note Supplement shall apply without variation or amendment in respect of Series 2005-B. 9.5 REALISATION OF THE CHARGED ASSETS UPON REDEMPTION In the event of the Security constituted under the Security Trust Deed becoming enforceable, the Security Trustee shall, but in each case without any liability as to the consequence of such action and without having regard to the effect of, or being required to account for, such action to, the Secured Creditors in relation to such Series, have the right to enforce its rights under the Security Documents (including the appointment of a receiver), in relation to the relevant Charged Assets in relation to such Series only, provided that the Security Trustee shall not be required to take any action that would involve the Security Trustee in any personal liability or expense unless previously indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction. The provisions of the Security Trust Deed are expressed to apply separately to each Series. Accordingly, the occurrence of a Loan Note Event of Default under one Series does not per se constitute and nor does it trigger a Loan Note Event of Default under any other Series. 10. ENFORCEMENT (a) Only the Security Trustee may pursue the remedies available under the Security Trust Deed, the Conditions or any of the Transaction Documents to enforce the rights of the Secured Creditors in relation to the Charged Assets of the Series 2005-B. No Secured Creditor of such Series is entitled to proceed directly against the Loan Note Issuer or any assets of the Loan Note Issuer unless the Security Trustee, having become bound to proceed in accordance with the terms of the Trust Deed, any Loan Note Supplement, any Supplementary Security Document executed in relation to the Loan Notes or the Conditions, fails or neglects to do so within a reasonable period and such failure or neglect is continuing. However, the Security Trustee shall not be bound to take any action to enforce the Security or pursue the remedies available under the Security Trust Deed, the Conditions (including under Condition 9.2) or any of the Transaction Documents or otherwise take any action unless it is indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction and has, if so required by the Conditions, been instructed to do so by the Priority Secured Creditor. (b) After the date falling three months after the Series Termination Date or, if earlier, realisation of the Security in respect of such Series which has become enforceable and distribution of the net proceeds thereof in accordance with - 34 - Condition 3, neither the Security Trustee nor any Secured Creditor in respect of such Series may take any further steps against the Loan Note Issuer, or any of its assets to recover any sums due but unpaid in respect of the Loan Notes or otherwise and the relevant Related Agreement will provide that the Counterparty may not take any further steps against the Loan Note Issuer, or any of its assets to recover any sums due to it but unpaid in respect of the relevant Related Agreement in respect of such Series and all claims and all rights to claim against the Loan Note Issuer in respect of each such sum unpaid shall be extinguished. (c) No Secured Creditor, nor the Security Trustee on its behalf, may institute against, or join any person in instituting against the Loan Note Issuer any bankruptcy, winding-up, re-organisation, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding (except for the appointment of a receiver and manager pursuant to the terms of the Security Trust Deed) or other proceeding under any similar law nor shall any of them have any claim in respect of any such sums over or in respect of any assets of the Loan Note Issuer which are Security for any other Series. The Secured Creditors accept and agree that the only remedy of the Security Trustee against the Loan Note Issuer of any Series after any of the Loan Notes in a Series have become due and payable pursuant to Condition 9 is to enforce the Security for the Series 2005-B pursuant to the provisions of the Security Trust Deed and any Supplementary Security Document executed in relation to such Series. (d) The net proceeds of enforcement of the Security for the Series 2005-B may be insufficient to pay all amounts due to the Secured Creditors in respect of such Series, in which event claims in respect of all such amounts will be extinguished. (e) No Loan Note Holder may institute any proceedings against the Loan Note Issuer to enforce its rights under or in respect of the Loan Notes or the Security Trust Deed or any relevant Loan Note Supplement unless (1) the Security Trustee has become bound to institute proceedings and has failed to do so within a reasonable time and (2) the failure is continuing. Each Loan Noteholder shall have the benefit of the mandatory provisions of the Trustee Indenture Act 1939. 11. PRESCRIPTION Claims against the Loan Note Issuer for payment in respect of the Loan Notes shall be prescribed and become void unless made within ten years (in the case of principal) or five years (in the case of interest) from the appropriate Relevant Date in respect thereof. 12. REPLACEMENT OF LOAN NOTES If any Loan Note is lost, stolen, mutilated, defaced or destroyed it may be replaced, subject to applicable laws and any relevant stock exchange requirements, at the specified office of the Loan Note Issuer, upon payment by the claimant of the expenses incurred in - 35 - connection with such replacement and on such terms as to evidence, security, indemnity and otherwise as the Loan Note Issuer may require. Mutilated or defaced Loan Notes must be surrendered before replacements will be issued. 13. MEETINGS OF LOAN NOTE HOLDERS, MODIFICATION, WAIVER, AUTHORISATION AND SUBSTITUTION 13.1 MEETINGS OF LOAN NOTE HOLDERS The Trust Deed contains provisions for convening joint and separate meetings of each Class of Loan Note Holders to consider any matter affecting their interests, including the sanctioning by an Extraordinary Resolution of such Loan Note Holders of the relevant Class of any modification of the Loan Notes of the relevant Class (including these Conditions as they relate to the Loan Notes of such relevant class) or the provisions of any of the Transaction Documents, Provided that no Basic Term Modification (as defined in the Security Trust Deed) by the Loan Note Holders of any Class shall be effective unless such modification is sanctioned by an Extraordinary Resolution of the Loan Note Holders of the other classes of Loan Notes. The quorum at any meeting of the Loan Note Holders of any Class of Loan Notes for passing an Extraordinary Resolution shall be one or more persons holding or representing a clear majority of the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the Loan Notes of the relevant Class; Provided however, that, at any meeting the business of which includes the sanctioning of a Basic Terms Modification (as defined in the Security Trust Deed), the necessary quorum for passing an Extraordinary Resolution shall be one or more persons holding or representing 75 per cent., or more of the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the Loan Notes of the relevant Class. Except in the case of a Basic Terms Modification (as defined in the Security Trust Deed), an Extraordinary Resolution of any Subordinated Secured Creditor shall only be effective if the Security Trustee is of the opinion that it will not be materially prejudicial to the interests of the Priority Secured Creditor or (if the Security Trustee is not of that opinion) it is sanctioned by an Extraordinary Resolution of the Priority Secured Creditor. Except in certain circumstances, the Trust Deed imposes no such limitations on the powers of the Priority Secured Creditor, the exercise of which will be binding on each subordinated Secured Creditor irrespective of the effect on their interests. An Extraordinary Resolution passed at any meeting of the Loan Note Holders of any Class of Loan Notes shall be binding on all Loan Note Holders of the relevant class, whether or not they are present at the meeting. The majority required for an Extraordinary Resolution, including the sanctioning of the Basic Terms Modification (as defined in the Security Trust Deed), shall be 75 per cent. of the votes cast on that Extraordinary Resolution. 13.2 MODIFICATION OR WAIVER The Security Trustee may agree, without the consent of the Loan Note Holders to (a) any modification (except a Basic Term Modification) of, or to the waiver or authorisation of - 36 - any breach or proposed breach of, the Loan Notes including these Conditions or any Transaction Document, which is not, in the opinion of the Security Trustee, materially prejudicial to the interests of the Loan Note Holders or (b) any modification of the Loan Notes (including these Conditions) or any Transaction Document, which in the Security Trustee's opinion is to correct a manifest error or is of a formal minor or technical nature. Any such modification, waiver, authorisation or determination shall be binding on the Loan Note Holders and, unless the Security Trustee agrees otherwise, any such modification or waiver shall be notified to the Loan Note Holders in accordance with Condition 14 as soon as practicable thereafter. 13.3 SUBSTITUTION AND ADDITION As more fully set forth in the Trust Deed (and subject to the conditions and qualifications therein) subject to such amendment of the Trust Deed and such other conditions as the Security Trustee may require, but without the consent of the Loan Note Holders, the Security Trustee may also agree to the substitution of any other body corporate in place of the Loan Note Issuer as principal debtor under the Trust Deed and the Loan Notes and in the case of such a substitution or addition the Security Trustee may agree, without the consent of the Loan Note Holders, to a change of the law governing the Loan Notes and/or the Trust Deed provided that such change would not in the opinion of the Security Trustee be materially prejudicial to the interests of the Loan Note Holders. Any such substitution or addition shall be notified to the Loan Note Holders in accordance with Condition 14 as soon as practicable thereafter. 14. NOTICES (a) Notices to the Loan Note Holders shall be deemed to have been duly validly given if published in a leading English language daily newspaper published in London (which is expected to be the Financial Times). Any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of first publication. (b) Any notices specifying an Interest Amount, an amount of Additional Interest or of Deferred Interest, a Redemption Amount or a Principal Amount Outstanding shall be deemed to have been duly given if the information contained in such notice appears on the relevant page of the Reuters Screen, Bloomberg or such other medium for the electronic display of data as may be approved by the Security Trustee and notified to Loan Note Holders (the "RELEVANT SCREEN").
