| increase in order to exercise such termination right.

Such Accelerated Termination Notice shall specify the final Termination Trade Date and the proposed Termination Settlement Date. Upon the termination of the Transaction pursuant to this Clause 3(a), Counterparty shall pay an additional amount to UBS equal to the applicable Breakage Costs on the Obligation Termination Date (which payment obligation of Counterparty shall survive the termination of the Transaction). |
Effect of Designation of Early Termination Date
| (b) | If there occurs or is effectively designated an Early Termination Date under the Master Agreement, then (i) notwithstanding any contrary or otherwise inconsistent provision of the Master Agreement, the provisions set forth in Section 6(e) of the Master Agreement shall not apply to the Transaction and the amount of all payments in respect of each Terminated Obligation shall not be an amount determined in accordance with Section 6(e) of the Master Agreement but shall instead be the Counterparty Second Floating Amount or UBS Floating Amount (as the case may be) determined in accordance with Clause 4 (subject, in the case of Clause 4(a), to the limitations set forth therein with respect to Counterparty relying on such provision), together with any Counterparty First Floating Amount, the Counterparty Third Floating Amount, the Counterparty Fourth Floating Amount, the Counterparty Fifth Floating Amount, the Counterparty Sixth Floating Amount, any UBS Fixed Amount and Breakage Costs (if any) determined in accordance with this Confirmation and subject to netting under the Master Agreement, (ii) the party that designated such Early Termination Date (or the Non-Defaulting Party in the case of an automatic designation) will promptly deliver a notice (an “Accelerated Termination Notice” for purposes of this Clause 3(b)) to the other party (which Accelerated Termination Notice shall specify the final Termination Trade Date and the proposed Termination Settlement Date and may form part of any notice designating such Early Termination Date) and (iii) the amount, if any, payable in respect of such Early Termination Date will be determined in accordance with this Confirmation based upon the delivery of such Accelerated Termination Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the termination of the Transaction pursuant to this Clause 3(b) other than as a result of an Event of Default or Termination Event with respect to which UBS is the Defaulting Party or an Affected Party, Counterparty shall pay an additional amount to UBS equal to the applicable Breakage Costs on the Obligation Termination Date (which payment obligation of Counterparty shall survive the termination of the Transaction); provided that Counterparty shall not be required to pay any Breakage Costs in the event of termination of the Transaction as a result of (i) an Additional Termination Event pursuant to Clause 3(c)(i) if the related “Event of Default” (as defined in the Reference Obligation Indenture) is a direct result of any action or omission by Party A or any of its Affiliates or (ii) an Additional Termination Event pursuant to Clause 3(c)(ii). |
Additional Termination Events
| (c) | Each of the following shall constitute an Additional Termination Event under the Master Agreement with respect to which Counterparty will be the sole Affected Party and each of the Transactions entered into hereunder and under the Related Confirmation will constitute an Affected Transaction: |
| (i) | the delivery of an “Accelerated Termination Notice” by UBS to Counterparty in respect of all Transactions currently outstanding under (and as defined in) the Related Confirmation in accordance with Clause 3(a)(ii) of the Related Confirmation; |
Page 8
| (ii) | the occurrence of an “Event of Default” under (and as defined in) the Reference Obligation Indenture (provided that, for purposes of this Confirmation and the Master Agreement, the determination of whether an “Event of Default” (as so defined) has occurred with respect to any amount due and payable on the Reference Obligation on the stated maturity thereof shall be made (x) without giving effect to the first sentence of Section 2.7(g) of the Reference Obligation Indenture and (y) without giving effect to any grace period in Section 5.1(a) or Section 5.1(b)(i) of the Reference Obligation Indenture); and |
| (iii) | if and for so long as any UBS Holder holds any part of the Reference Obligation as a hedge for the Transaction, either (A) the ownership by such UBS Holder of the Reference Obligation (or any portion thereof) or (B) the compliance by such UBS Holder with its obligations under the Reference Obligation Indenture or under the Reference Obligation would violate any law, rule or regulation of any governmental, regulatory or judicial authority applicable to such UBS Holder. |
| 4. | FINAL PRICE DETERMINATION. |
Following the termination of the Transaction (i) pursuant to (or, in the case of Clause 3(b), as described in) Clause 3 or (ii) by reason of the occurrence of the Scheduled Termination Date (other than in connection with a Repayment), the Final Price for each Terminated Obligation will be determined in accordance with this Clause 4.
| (a) | If any UBS Holder holds the Reference Obligation as a hedge for such Terminated Obligation, subject to sub-clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) below, Counterparty may identify an Approved Dealer that has submitted a Firm Bid to acquire the Reference Obligation from UBS or any such Affiliate, in each case by giving notice of such Firm Bid to UBS. Such notice must be given no later than 10 a.m. (New York time) on the applicable Termination Trade Date. So long as (i) any sale by UBS or such Affiliate of the Reference Obligation or applicable portion thereof to such Approved Dealer (as applicable) is (A) not prohibited under applicable law or regulation and (B) substantially in accordance with the then-current market practice in the principal market for, and transfer restrictions with respect to, the Reference Obligation (as determined by the Calculation Agent) and at prevailing market price, (ii) all payment and collateral delivery obligations of Counterparty have otherwise been satisfied when due under this Confirmation and the Master Agreement and (iii) no Event of Default or Additional Termination Event has occurred or is continuing with respect to Counterparty, in each case on the date Counterparty delivers such notice, (x) if a retransfer is necessary in order for UBS to be able to unwind its hedge position (or the applicable portion thereof) and UBS accepts such Firm Bid, UBS or such Affiliate shall take, on or promptly following the Termination Trade Date all actions within its reasonable control necessary to cause such retransfer of the Reference Obligation to UBS or such Affiliate, (y) subject (only where such retransfer is necessary for UBS to unwind its hedge position (or the applicable portion thereof) and UBS accepts such Firm Bid) to such retransfer of the Reference Obligation having occurred in accordance with UBS’ instructions, UBS or such Affiliate shall accept such Firm Bid and transfer the Reference Obligation or portion thereof to such Approved Dealer and (z) the net cash proceeds received by UBS or such Affiliate from the sale of the Reference Obligation or portion thereof (exclusive of accrued interest and capitalized interest), net of the related Costs of Assignment, shall be the “Final Price” for the relevant Reference Obligation or portion thereof. In the event that such transfer of the Reference Obligation or portion thereof to such Approved Dealer does not occur (I) as a result of a breach by UBS of its obligations under this Section 4(a), the Final Price for the Terminated Obligation shall be determined based on the Firm Bid provided by such Approved Dealer or (II) other than as a result of a breach by UBS of its obligations under this Section 4(a), the Final Price for the Terminated Obligation shall be determined pursuant to Section 4(b) below. |
Page 9
| (b) | If the Final Price for the Terminated Obligation is not determined in accordance with clause (a) above, then the Calculation Agent shall attempt to obtain Firm Bids for the Terminated Obligation with respect to the applicable Termination Trade Date from three or more Dealers. The Calculation Agent will give Counterparty notice of its intention to obtain Firm Bids pursuant to this Clause 4 (such notice to be given telephonically and via electronic mail) not later than 5:00 p.m. New York time on the date three Business Days prior to the bid submission deadline as shall be specified by the Calculation Agent in each of its requests for Firm Bids for the Terminated Obligation with respect to the applicable Termination Trade Date. By notice to UBS not later than such bid submission deadline, Counterparty may, but shall not be obligated to, designate any Dealer to provide a Firm Bid (and the Calculation Agent will seek a Firm Bid from such Dealer if so designated by Counterparty on a timely basis). |
In seeking to obtain a Firm Bid from any Dealer, the Calculation Agent will deliver to such Dealer the following information: (1) a copy of the Reference Obligation Indenture (and each Transaction Document referred to (and as defined) therein); and (2) a copy of each Monthly Report delivered under (and as defined in) the Reference Obligation Indenture within the last 12 months. Such Dealers must provide the Calculation Agent with a Firm Bid within one Business Day of the Calculation Agent’s request for such Firm Bid in order for the Calculation Agent to consider such Firm Bid in its determinations of the Final Price under this Clause 4(b). In seeking to obtain a Firm Bid from any Dealer, the Calculation Agent will, to the extent practicable, afford such Dealer with an opportunity, to the extent requested by such Dealer, to ask questions of, and receive information from, the persons or entities responsible for the management of the Reference Entity.
UBS may, but is not obligated to, sell or cause the sale of any portion of a Terminated Obligation to any Dealer that provides a Firm Bid for purposes of this Clause 4(b).
If the Calculation Agent is able to obtain at least one Firm Bid or combination of Firm Bids for all of the Notional Amount allocable to a Terminated Obligation, the Final Price for such Terminated Obligation shall be determined by reference to the highest such Firm Bid or combination of Firm Bids received by the Calculation Agent within one Business Day of its request therefor. If no Firm Bids are obtained as provided above in this Clause 4 for all or a portion of a Terminated Obligation, the Final Price shall be deemed to be zero with respect to each portion of such Terminated Obligation for which no Firm Bid was obtained. The Calculation Agent will conduct the bid process in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Clause 4 and otherwise in a commercially reasonable manner.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
| (i) | the Calculation Agent shall be entitled to disregard any Firm Bid submitted by a Dealer if, in the Calculation Agent’s commercially reasonable judgment, (x) such Dealer is ineligible to accept assignment or transfer of the relevant Terminated Obligation or portion thereof, as applicable, substantially in accordance with the then-current market practice in the principal market for such Terminated Obligation, as determined by the Calculation Agent, or (y) such Dealer would not, through the exercise of its commercially reasonable efforts, be able to obtain any consent required under any agreement or instrument governing or otherwise relating to such Terminated Obligation to the assignment or transfer of such Terminated Obligation or portion thereof, as applicable, to it; and |
Page 10
| (ii) | if the Calculation Agent determines that the highest Firm Bid obtained in connection with the applicable Termination Trade Date is not bona fide due to (x) the bankruptcy or insolvency of the bidder or (y) the inability, failure or refusal (or reasonably expected inability, failure or refusal) of the bidder to settle the purchase of such Terminated Obligation or portion thereof, as applicable, or otherwise settle transactions in the relevant market or perform its obligations generally, that Firm Bid shall be disregarded. |
If the highest Firm Bid for any portion of such Terminated Obligation is disregarded pursuant to this paragraph, then (i) if there is at least one other available Firm Bid for such portion, the “Final Price” shall be the next highest Firm Bid and (ii) if there are no other available Firm Bids for such portion, the Calculation Agent shall have no obligation to obtain further bids, and the applicable “Final Price” for the portion which was so disregarded shall be deemed to be zero.
If UBS transfers, or causes the transfer of, a Terminated Obligation to the Dealer or Dealers providing the highest Firm Bid or combination of Firm Bids, the net cash proceeds received from the sale of such Terminated Obligation (which sale shall be scheduled to settle no later than the Relevant Settlement Date), exclusive of accrued interest and capitalized interest and net of any Costs of Assignment, shall be the “Final Price” for such Terminated Obligation (or the portion thereof that is sold).
If UBS determines, in its sole discretion, not to sell or cause the sale of any portion of such Terminated Obligation to the entity or entities providing the highest Firm Bid or combination of Firm Bids, the “Final Price” for such unsold portion shall be equal to such highest Firm Bid (or combination of Firm Bids) multiplied by the portion of the Notional Amount allocable to such Terminated Obligation (or the respective portions of the Notional Amount to which such Firm Bids relate). The Calculation Agent may perform any of its duties under this Clause 4(b) through any Affiliate designated by it, but no such designation shall relieve the Calculation Agent of its duties under this Clause 4(b).
| (c) | In the event that (i) the Final Price for all or any part of the Terminated Obligation is deemed to be zero pursuant to the foregoing and (ii) any UBS Holders holds the Reference Obligation as a hedge for such Terminated Obligation, UBS and Counterparty will make commercially reasonable efforts to accomplish the assignment or other transfer to Counterparty (free of payment by Counterparty other than Costs of Assignment incurred by UBS or any of its Affiliates in effecting the transfer; provided that all other payment and collateral delivery obligations of Counterparty are otherwise fulfilled under the Master Agreement at the time of such transfer) of the relevant Terminated Obligation (or the relevant portion thereof) for which the Final Price is deemed to be zero; and UBS shall not be liable for any losses related to any delay in or failure of such assignment beyond its control. Counterparty shall reimburse UBS for all Costs of Assignment incurred by UBS in effecting the transfer promptly following UBS’ demand therefor. |
| 5. | [RESERVED] |
| 6. | ADJUSTMENTS. |
If the Reference Obligation or any portion thereof is irreversibly converted or exchanged into or for any securities, obligations or other assets or property (“Exchange Consideration”), or any payment on the Reference Obligation is paid in the form of any Exchange Consideration that is not cash, thereafter such Exchange Consideration will constitute the Reference Obligation or portion thereof and the Calculation Agent shall, after consultation with the parties, adjust the terms of the Transaction as the Calculation Agent determines appropriate to preserve the theoretical value of the Transaction to the parties immediately prior to such exchange or, if such exchange results in a change in value, the proportionate post-exchange value, and determine the effective date of such adjustments.

Counterparty understands and agrees that in engaging in the Activities, (x) UBS or its Affiliates may now or in the future have interests or take actions that may conflict with the interests of Counterparty and (y) officers and employees of UBS or its Affiliates (including those responsible for negotiating the Transaction) may currently have and later may receive or otherwise obtain information concerning one or more of the Reference Entity, the Portfolio Asset Obligors and their respective Affiliates (including information concerning mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, restructurings, defaults under material agreements, creditors’ rights proceedings or other matters that may affect the value of the Reference Obligation or any Portfolio Asset or the ability of the Reference Entity or any Portfolio Asset Obligor to perform its obligations thereunder), which information may not be available to Counterparty and may be material to a decision to enter into the Transaction (the “Excluded Information”). Counterparty acknowledges that it has determined to enter into the Transaction notwithstanding its lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information. Counterparty agrees that neither UBS nor any of its Affiliates shall have any liability to Counterparty, and Counterparty waives and releases any claims that it might have against UBS or its Affiliates, whether under applicable securities laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information in connection with this Confirmation or the Transaction; provided that the Excluded Information shall not and does not affect the truth or accuracy of UBS’s representations or warranties in the Master Agreement or this Confirmation; |

| (D) | Counterparty acknowledges that (i) it is solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with this Confirmation and the Transaction, (ii) that it has, independently and without reliance upon UBS or its Affiliates, made its own appraisal and |
Page 14
| investigation of all risks associated with, and its own credit analysis and decision to enter into, this Confirmation and the Transaction based on such documents and information, as it has deemed appropriate and (iii) it will, independently and without reliance upon UBS or its Affiliates, continue to be solely responsible for making its own appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with, and its own credit analysis and decision to take or not take action under, this Confirmation and the Transaction, based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate which may include, in each case, any or all of the following (it being understood that neither UBS nor any of its Affiliates is responsible for or has made any representation or warranty with respect to any such matters or information): (x) the financial condition, status and capitalization of the Reference Entity or any Portfolio Asset Obligor; (y) the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of any agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with the Reference Obligation or any Portfolio Asset; or (z) the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of (A) any document in the form approved by the Reference Entity or any Portfolio Asset Obligor concerning the Reference Entity or such Portfolio Asset Obligor (or any of their respective subsidiaries) which, at the request of the Reference Entity or such Portfolio Asset Obligor and on its behalf, was prepared in relation to the syndication of the Reference Obligation or any Portfolio Asset or other obligations of the Reference Entity or any Portfolio Asset Obligor and which may or may not have been distributed by the arranger(s) of such obligations to selected financial institutions (an “Information Memorandum”) and (B) any other information concerning the Reference Entity or any Portfolio Asset Obligor delivered by UBS or its Affiliates under or in connection with this Confirmation, the Transaction or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with the Reference Obligation or any Portfolio Asset; and |
| (E) | Counterparty agrees that none of (i) the Master Agreement, (ii) the receipt by UBS or its Affiliates of any information (including Excluded Information) concerning one or more of the Reference Entity, the Portfolio Asset Obligors and their respective Affiliates (including information concerning the value of the Reference Obligation or any Portfolio Asset or the ability of the Reference Entity or any Portfolio Asset Obligor to perform their respective obligations thereunder) nor (iii) any other matter, shall give rise to any fiduciary or other similar duties (including without limitation any duty of trust or confidence) owing by UBS or its Affiliates to Counterparty including any such duty that would prevent or restrict UBS or its Affiliates from acting on behalf of customers (including the Reference Entity, the Portfolio Asset Obligors and their respective Affiliates) or for its own account; |
| (iv) | neither UBS nor any of its Affiliates shall be under any obligation to hedge the Transaction or to own or hold the Reference Obligation or any Portfolio Asset as a result of the Transaction, and UBS and its Affiliates may establish, maintain, modify, terminate or re-establish any hedge position or any methodology for hedging at any time without regard to Counterparty. Any such purchases, sales or other transactions will be at the sole discretion of UBS and its Affiliates, and Counterparty acknowledges that such transactions may affect the market price of the Reference Obligation and/or the Portfolio Assets. Counterparty acknowledges and agrees that it is not relying on any representation, |
Page 15
| warranty or statement by UBS or any of its Affiliates as to whether, at what times, in what manner or by what method UBS or any of its Affiliates may engage in any hedging activities; |
| (v) | notwithstanding any other provision in this Confirmation or any other document, UBS and Counterparty (and each employee, representative, or other agent of UBS or Counterparty) may each disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. tax treatment and U.S. tax structure of the Transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to them relating to such U.S. tax treatment and U.S. tax structure (as those terms are used in Treasury Regulations under Sections 6011, 6111 and 6112 of the Code), other than any information for which nondisclosure is reasonably necessary in order to comply with applicable securities laws. To the extent not inconsistent with the previous sentence, UBS and Counterparty will each keep confidential (except as required by law) all information unless the other party has consented in writing to the disclosure of such information. In the event of a disclosure with respect to the U.S. tax treatment and U.S. tax structure of this Transaction, the person making the disclosure may disclose all information relevant to an understanding of the U.S. tax treatment and U.S. tax structure of this Transaction, but such person may not disclose the identity of the Counterparty, any Reference Entity or any Portfolio Asset; and |
| (vi) | if UBS chooses to hold (either directly or indirectly) the Reference Obligation as a result of the Transaction, UBS may deal with the Reference Obligation as if the Transaction did not exist (and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, UBS shall have no duty to Counterparty with respect to any such direct or indirect ownership of the Reference Obligation). |

| (ii) | (x) it is an “eligible contract participant” as defined in the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the “CEA”), (y) the Master Agreement and each Transaction are subject to individual negotiation by each party, and (z) neither the Master Agreement nor the Transaction will be executed or traded on a “trading facility” within the meaning of Section 1a(33) of the CEA; and |
| (iii) | (A) the Master Agreement (including the Credit Support Annex) and each Transaction entered into under this Confirmation is a “swap agreement” within the meaning given to such term under Section 101(53B) of the United States Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”) and (B) it is a “swap participant” within the meaning given to such term under Section 101(53C) of the Bankruptcy Code. |
| (d) | Counterparty hereby represents to UBS that: |
| (i) | its investments in and liabilities in respect of the Transaction, which it understands is not readily marketable, is not disproportionate to its net worth, and it is able to bear any loss in connection with the Transaction, including the loss of its entire investment in the Transaction; |
Page 16
| (ii) | it understands no obligations of UBS to it hereunder will be entitled to the benefit of deposit insurance and that such obligations will not be guaranteed by any Affiliate of UBS or any governmental agency; |
| (iii) | it has elected to treat the Reference Entity as an entity disregarded from its owner for United States Federal income tax purposes; |
| (iv) | it can receive all payments on each Portfolio Asset included in the Portfolio without U.S. Federal withholding tax and the relevant Reference Entity or any subsidiary thereof holding a Portfolio Asset, as applicable, can (except to the extent otherwise disclosed with respect to the Portfolio Asset prior to the related Trade Date (as defined in the Reference Obligation Indenture)) receive all such payments without foreign withholding tax (which representation, subject to any such exception, shall also be made for purposes of Section 3(f) of the Master Agreement); |
| (v) | it has delivered an applicable United States Internal Revenue Service form W-9 (or successor form) with respect to withholding tax required to be delivered by it pursuant to Part 3 of the Schedule to the Master Agreement (and this representation will also be deemed made pursuant to Section 3(f) of the Master Agreement); |
| (vi) | it is not, for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, a tax exempt organization for purposes of Section 514 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and, unless any such organization that invests in Counterparty does so only indirectly through an entity that is not transparent for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, there is disclosure to such organization that such organizations may recognize unrelated business taxable income; |
| (vii) | it has obtained tax advice from its auditors or external legal counsel, in either case of recognized standing in relation to U.S. Federal income tax matters, that considered the U.S. tax treatment of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates; and |
| (viii) | it has obtained its own advice as to the proper tax characterization of the transaction in all jurisdictions, including for the avoidance of doubt the United States, and is not relying on UBS or its advisors in respect of such matters in any respect. |
| (e) | UBS hereby represents to Counterparty that |
| (i) | UBS will provide to the Counterparty and the Reference Entity a valid Form W-9 provided by UBS Securities LLC and attached to a valid Form W-8IMY (or successor thereto), that the Counterparty and the Reference Entity may reliably associate all payments to be made by either of them pursuant to the Transaction with such forms, and therefore may treat all such payments under the Transaction as made to a U.S. person within the meaning of Treas. Regs. Section 1.1441-1(d)(4); |
| (ii) | the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates is entered into by UBS through an office located within the United States, or U.S. personnel of UBS materially participated in this Transaction for U.S. Federal income tax purposes and UBS is acting solely as an agent of UBS Securities LLC, a person that is a “U.S. person” as that term is defined under IRC Section 7701(a)(30); |
| (iii) | except to the extent necessary to enable UBS to exercise any of its rights under Paragraph 6(c) of the Credit Support Annex, that UBS is under no legal or contractual obligation to |
Page 17
| treat the Reference Obligation issued to it, any Pledged Notes pledged under the Credit Support Annex or any Portfolio Asset as legally or beneficially owned by any person other than the Counterparty; and |
| (iv) | that UBS has obtained its own advice as to the proper tax characterization of the transaction in all jurisdictions, including for the avoidance of doubt the United States, and is not relying on the Counterparty or its advisors in respect of such matters in any respect. |
| (f) | Except for disclosure authorized pursuant to Clause 7(b)(v), Counterparty agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of the Reference Obligation Indenture (and of each credit or loan agreement governing each Portfolio Asset) with respect to all information and documentation in relation to the Reference Entity or any Portfolio Asset Obligor or the Reference Obligation or any Portfolio Asset delivered to Counterparty hereunder. Counterparty acknowledges that such information may include material non-public information concerning one or more of the Reference Entity, the Portfolio Asset Obligors and their respective securities and agrees to use such information in accordance with applicable law, including Federal and State securities laws. In addition, Counterparty agrees to keep confidential any internal rating supplied by UBS to Counterparty with respect to any Portfolio Asset. |
| (g) | Notwithstanding anything in the Master Agreement to the contrary, UBS will not be required to pay any additional amount under Section 2(d)(i) of the Master Agreement in respect of any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax in relation to any payment under the Transaction. If UBS is required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, to make any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax in relation to any payment under the Transaction and UBS does not so deduct or withhold, then Section 2(d)(ii) of the Master Agreement shall be applicable. |
| (h) | If an “Event of Default” under (and as defined in) the Reference Obligation Indenture occurs, then UBS may give notice to Counterparty (so long as such event is continuing on the date of such notice) that UBS, in its capacity as Valuation Agent under (and as defined in) the Reference Obligation Indenture, has elected to exercise exclusively on behalf of the Reference Entity and each subsidiary thereof all rights of the Reference Entity to purchase and dispose of, and to exercise all voting and other consensual rights with respect to, and to make all other determinations and decisions with respect to the ownership of, the Portfolio Assets held or to be acquired by the Reference Entity, pursuant to Section 12.1(c) of the Reference Obligation Indenture. |
| 8. | ADJUSTMENTS RELATING TO CERTAIN UNPAID OR RESCINDED PAYMENTS. |
| (a) | If (i) UBS makes any payment to Counterparty as provided under Clause 2 and the corresponding Interest and Fee Amount is not paid (in whole or in part) when due or (ii) any Interest and Fee Amount in respect of the Reference Obligation is required to be returned (in whole or in part) by a holder of the Reference Obligation (including, without limitation, the UBS Holder) to the applicable Reference Entity or paid to any other person or entity or is otherwise rescinded pursuant to any bankruptcy or insolvency law or any other applicable law, then (i) each payment obligation under the Transaction related to such payment shall be recomputed by the Calculation Agent as if such unpaid or returned amount had not been paid and (ii) Counterparty will pay to UBS, within five Business Days following receipt of notice from UBS, such amount (or portion thereof) so not paid or so required to be returned, paid or otherwise rescinded. If such returned, |
Page 18
| paid or otherwise rescinded amount is subsequently paid, UBS shall pay such amount (subject to Clause 8(c)) to Counterparty within five Business Days after the date of such subsequent payment. |
| (b) | [reserved] |
| (c) | Amounts payable pursuant to this Clause 8 shall be subject to adjustment by the Calculation Agent in good faith and on a commercially reasonable basis, as agreed by UBS and Counterparty, in order to preserve for the parties the intended economic risks and benefits of the relevant Transaction; provided that (i) no amounts in respect of interest shall be payable by either party on any adjusted amount and (ii) the Calculation Agent in performing the calculations pursuant to this Clause 8 will assume that no interest has accrued on any adjusted amount. |
| (d) | The payment obligations of UBS and Counterparty pursuant to this Clause 8 shall survive the termination of the Transaction. |
| 9. | CREDIT SUPPORT. |
Notwithstanding anything in the Credit Support Annex (the “Credit Support Annex”) to the Schedule to the Master Agreement to the contrary, the following collateral terms shall apply to the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates. Capitalized terms used in this Clause 9 but not otherwise defined in this Confirmation have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Credit Support Annex. In the event of any conflict between the Credit Support Annex and these “Collateral Provisions”, these “Collateral Provisions” shall prevail.
| (a) | Counterparty shall Transfer Eligible Collateral to UBS pursuant to the terms of the Credit Support Annex between UBS and Counterparty, as amended hereby. For purposes of said Credit Support Annex, the Independent Amount applicable to Counterparty in respect of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates shall, on any Valuation Date, be equal to the aggregate Value of the Pledged Notes, and Counterparty’s obligations to transfer collateral to UBS in respect of such Independent Amount shall at all times be satisfied by the Pledged Notes being Transferred to UBS in accordance with the terms of the Credit Support Annex. |
| (b) | The definition of Exposure in Paragraph 12 of the Credit Support Annex is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read: |
UBS’s “Exposure” as Secured Party for the Transactions entered into hereunder and under the Related Confirmation and any Valuation Date or other date for which Exposure is calculated shall mean the sum of (a) the excess, if any, of the Class A-R Net Collateral Value Deficit over the Class A-R Variation Margin Threshold on such date plus (b) the excess, if any, of the Class A Net Collateral Value Deficit over the Class A Variation Margin Threshold on such date, plus (c) the excess, if any, of the Bond Net Collateral Value Deficit over the Bond Variation Margin Threshold.
| (c) | The “Minimum Transfer Amount” with respect to Counterparty as of any Valuation Date shall be U.S.$100,000; provided that (i) a single Delivery Amount or Return Amount (as applicable) shall be calculated on each Valuation Date for the Transactions entered into hereunder and under the Related Confirmation for purposes of determining whether or not the Minimum Transfer Amount has been exceeded and (ii) the Minimum Transfer Amount for Counterparty shall be zero (1) for purposes of determining any Delivery Amount required to be Transferred by Counterparty in respect of any Independent Amount and (2) at any time when an Event of Default, Potential |
Page 19
| Event of Default, Termination Event or event which with the giving of notice or lapse of time would (absent the cure thereof during any applicable grace period) constitute a Termination Event has occurred and is continuing with respect to which Counterparty is (or would be) the Defaulting Party or Affected Party. |
| (d) | Solely for purposes of the first demand (and not any subsequent demand) made by UBS as Secured Party for any Transfer of Eligible Credit Support by Counterparty in respect of a Delivery Amount (or the applicable portion thereof) that is due to an increase in the Exposure of UBS as Secured Party (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, the Transfer of the Pledged Notes in satisfaction of Counterparty’s obligations in respect of the Independent Amount) made or deemed made by UBS pursuant to Clause 9(a) above), Paragraph 4(b) of the Credit Support Annex shall be amended by (i) replacing the words “next Local Business Day” with “tenth Local Business Day thereafter” and (ii) replacing the words “second Local Business Day thereafter” with “eleventh Local Business Day thereafter”. UBS shall make no further demand for the Transfer of Eligible Credit Support by Counterparty in respect of a Delivery Amount (or the applicable portion thereof) that is due to an increase in UBS’ Exposure until such tenth or eleventh (as applicable) Local Business Day period has expired, whereupon the Transfer timing provisions of Paragraph 4(b) shall apply as set forth in the Credit Support Annex without regard to the provisions of this Clause 9(d). |
| (e) | Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Credit Support Annex, (i) the Threshold with respect to UBS shall be infinity, (ii) in no event shall Counterparty have any positive Exposure as a Secured Party to UBS with respect to the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates and (iii) accordingly, (A) Counterparty shall be the only “Pledgor” and UBS shall be the only “Secured Party” for all purposes of the Credit Support Annex and (B) only the Counterparty makes the pledge and grant in Paragraph 2 of the Credit Support Annex, the acknowledgment in the final sentence of Paragraph 8(a) of the Credit Support Annex and the representations in Paragraph 9 of the Credit Support Annex. |
| (f) | In no event shall Counterparty’s Credit Support Amount as Pledgor be less than the sum of (i) the Independent Amount for the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates and (ii) the sum of the Independent Amounts for all of the Transactions evidenced by the Related Confirmation. Accordingly, in no event shall the Pledged Notes be Transferred to Counterparty until the Termination Date. |
| (g) | UBS shall be the sole Valuation Agent for purposes of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates and each Business Day shall be a Valuation Date. |
| (h) | Notwithstanding anything in this Confirmation to the contrary, for purposes of determining the portion of the Exposure that is attributable to a Portfolio Asset (or portion thereof) that is being sold or has been repaid, the Par Amount of such Portfolio Asset shall not be reduced to reflect such sale or repayment until the Business Day next succeeding the settlement date of such sale or the date on which such repayment occurs, as the case may be. In addition, if the Reference Entity sells any Portfolio Asset and the settlement date for such sale occurs after the date customary for settlement substantially in accordance with the then-current market practice in the principal market for such Portfolio Asset (as determined by the Calculation Agent), then Unrealized Capital Appreciation and Unrealized Capital Depreciation will continue to vary until the actual settlement date (and, for this purpose, each of Unrealized Capital Appreciation and Unrealized Capital Depreciation with respect to such Portfolio Asset shall be determined until such date of actual settlement as if no sale price had been established until the date of settlement of the relevant sale). |
Page 20
| (i) | The provisions of Paragraph 5 of the Credit Support Annex shall be superseded and replaced in their entirety by Counterparty’s dispute rights with respect to the Current Price of any Portfolio Asset as set forth in the definition of “Current Price”. |
