Assumptions as to Pledged Obligations.

earned on Scheduled Distributions on such Pledged Obligations and on any other amounts thatmay be received for deposit in the Collection Account.

All calculations with respect to Scheduled Distributions on the Pledged(a)Obligations securing the Secured Notes shall be made on the basis of information as to the termsof each such Pledged Obligation and upon report of payments, if any, received on such PledgedObligation that are furnished by or on behalf of the issuer of such Pledged Obligation and, to theextent they are not manifestly in error, such information or report may be conclusively reliedupon in making such calculations.

For purposes of calculating the Coverage Tests and the Reinvestment(b)Overcollateralization Test, except as otherwise specified in the Coverage Tests and theReinvestment Overcollateralization Test, such calculations shall not include scheduled interestand principal payments on Defaulted Obligations unless or until such payments are actuallymade.

For each Collection Period and as of any date of determination, the(c)Scheduled Distribution on any Pledged Obligation (other than a Defaulted Obligation, which,except as otherwise provided herein, shall be assumed to have a Scheduled Distribution of zero)shall be the sum of (i) the total amount of payments and collections to be received during suchCollection Period in respect of such Pledged Obligation (including the proceeds of the sale ofsuch Pledged Obligation received and, in the case of sales which have not yet settled, to bereceived during the Collection Period and not reinvested in additional Collateral Obligations orEligible Investments or retained in the Collection Account for subsequent reinvestment pursuantto Section 12.2) that, if paid as scheduled, shall be available in the Collection Account at the endof the Collection Period and (ii) any such amounts received by the Issuer in prior CollectionPeriods that were not disbursed on a previous Payment Date.

Each Scheduled Distribution receivable with respect to a Pledged(d)Obligation shall be assumed to be received on the applicable Due Date, and each such ScheduledDistribution shall be assumed to be immediately deposited in the Collection Account to earninterest at the Assumed Reinvestment Rate. All such funds shall be assumed to continue to earninterest until the date on which they are required to be available in the Collection Account forapplication, in accordance with the terms hereof, to payments of principal of or interest on theNotes or other amounts payable pursuant to this Indenture. For the avoidance of doubt, allamounts calculated pursuant to this Section 1.2(d) are estimates and may differ from the actualamounts available to make distributions hereunder, and no party shall have any obligation tomake any payment hereunder due to the assumed amounts calculated under this Section 1.2(d)being greater than the actual amounts available.

For purposes of calculating the Disposition Proceeds of a Collateral(l)Obligation in sale transactions, Disposition Proceeds shall include any Principal FinancedAccrued Interest received in respect of such sale.

For purposes of calculating clauses (iv) and (viivi) of the definition of(m)Concentration Limitations, without duplication, the amounts on deposit in the CollectionAccount and the Ramp-Up Account (including Eligible Investments therein) representingPrincipal Proceeds shall each be deemed to be a floating rate Collateral Obligation that is aSenior Secured Loan.

Determination of the purchase price of a Collateral Obligation shall be(r)made independently each time such Collateral Obligation is purchased by the Issuer and pledgedto the Trustee, without giving effect to whether the Issuer has previously purchased suchCollateral Obligation (or an obligation of the related borrower or issuer).

For purposes of the calculation of the Coverage Tests, the Reinvestment(s)Overcollateralization Test and the Collateral Quality Test, Collateral Obligations contributed to aTax Subsidiary as TaxedTax Assets pursuant to Section 7.16(l)(xi) shall be included net of theactual taxes paid or any future anticipated taxes payable with respect thereto.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuer may withholdany amount that it determines is required to be withheld from any amounts otherwisedistributable to any holder of a Note.

DIVERSITY SCORE CALCULATION

The Diversity Score is calculated as follows:

An “Issuer Par Amount” is calculated for each issuer of a Collateral1.Obligation, and is equal to the Aggregate Principal Balance of all the Collateral Obligationsissued by that issuer and all affiliates.

An “Average Par Amount” is calculated by summing the Issuer Par2.Amounts for all issuers, and dividing by the number of issuers.

An “Equivalent Unit Score” is calculated for each issuer, and is equal to3.the lesser of (x) one and (y) the Issuer Par Amount for such issuer divided by the Average ParAmount.

An “Aggregate Industry Equivalent Unit Score” is then calculated for each4.of the Moody’s industry classification groups, shown on Schedule 1, and is equal to the sum ofthe Equivalent Unit Scores for each issuer in such industry classification group.

An “Industry Diversity Score” is then established for each Moody’s5.industry classification group, shown on Schedule 1, by reference to the following table for therelated Aggregate Industry Equivalent Unit Score; provided, that if any Aggregate IndustryEquivalent Unit Score falls between any two such scores, the applicable Industry Diversity Scoreshall be the lower of the two Industry Diversity Scores:

S&P CDO MONITOR FORMULA DEFINITIONS

As used for purposes of the S&P CDO Monitor Test during an S&P CDO Monitor Formula Election Period, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:

“S&P CDO Monitor Adjusted BDR” means the threshold value for the S&P CDO Monitor Test, calculated as a percentage by adjusting the S&P CDO Monitor BDR for changes in the Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations relative to the Aggregate Ramp-Up Par Amount as follows: S&P CDO Monitor BDR * (OP / NP) and (NP - OP) / [NP * (1 – S&P Weighted Average Recovery Rate)], where OP = Aggregate Ramp-Up Par Amount; NP = the sum of the Aggregate Principal Balances of the Collateral Obligations with an S&P Rating of “CCC-” or higher, Principal Proceeds, and the sum of the lower of S&P Recovery Amount or the Market Value of each obligation with an S&P Rating below “CCC-”.

“S&P CDO Monitor BDR” means the value calculated using the following formula relating to the Issuer’s portfolio: C0 + (C1 * Weighted Average Floating Spread) + (C2 * S&P Weighted Average Recovery Rate), where: C0= [], C1= [] and C2= [].

“S&P CDO Monitor SDR” means the percentage derived from the following equation: 0.329915 + (1.210322 * EPDR) – (0.586627 * DRD) + (2.538684 /ODM) + (0.216729 / IDM) + (0.0575539 / RDM) – (0.0136662 * WAL), where EPDR is the S&P Expected Portfolio Default Rate; DRD is the S&P Default Rate Dispersion; ODM is the S&P Obligor Diversity Measure; IDM is the S&P Industry Diversity Measure; RDM is the S&P Regional Diversity Measure; and WAL is the S&P Weighted Average Life.

“S&P Default Rate” means, with respect to all Collateral Obligations with an S&P Rating of “CCC-” or higher, the default rate determined in accordance with Table 1 below using such Collateral Obligation’s S&P Rating and the number of years to maturity (determined using linearinterpolation if the number of years to maturity is not an integer).

“S&P Default Rate Dispersion” means, with respect to all Collateral Obligations with an S&P Rating of “CCC-” or higher, (A) the sum of the product of (i) the Principal Balance of each such Collateral Obligation and (ii) the absolute value of (x) the S&P Default Rate minus (y) the S&P Expected Portfolio Default Rate divided by (B) the Aggregate Principal Balance for all such Collateral Obligations.

“S&P Effective Date Adjustments” means, in connection with determining whether the S&P CDO Monitor Test is satisfied in connection with the end of the Ramp-Up Period if an S&P CDO Monitor Formula Election Date has occurred, the following adjustments shall apply: (i) in calculating the Weighted Average Floating Spread, the Effective Spread will be calculated without regard to clause (b)(ii) of the definition thereof and (ii) in calculating the S&P CDO Monitor Adjusted BDR, the Collateral Principal Amount will exclude Principal Proceeds on

deposit in the Ramp-Up Account permitted to be designated as Interest Proceeds prior to the first Payment Date.

“S&P Expected Portfolio Default Rate” means, with respect to all Collateral Obligations with an S&P Rating of “CCC-” or higher, (i) the sum of the product of (x) the Principal Balance of each such Collateral Obligation and (y) the S&P Default Rate divided by (ii) the Aggregate Principal Balance for all such Collateral Obligations.

“S&P Industry Diversity Measure” means a measure calculated by determining the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations (with an S&P Rating of “CCC-” or higher) within each S&P Industry Classification in the portfolio, then dividing each of these amounts by the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations (with an S&P Rating of “CCC-” or higher) from all the S&P Industry Classifications in the portfolio, squaring the result for each industry, then taking the reciprocal of the sum of these squares.

“S&P Obligor Diversity Measure” means a measure calculated by determining the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations (with an S&P Rating of “CCC-” or higher) from each obligor and its affiliates, then dividing each such Aggregate Principal Balance by the Aggregate Principal Balance of Collateral Obligations (with an S&P Rating of “CCC-” or higher) from all the obligors in the portfolio, then squaring the result for each obligor, then taking the reciprocal of the sum of these squares.

“S&P Regional Diversity Measure” means a measure calculated by determining the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations (with an S&P Rating of “CCC-” or higher) within each S&P region set forth in Table 2 below, then dividing each of these amounts by the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations (with an S&P Rating of “CCC-” or higher) from all S&P regions in the portfolio, squaring the result for each region, then taking the reciprocal of the sum of these squares.

“S&P Weighted Average Life” means, on any date of determination, a number calculated by determining the number of years between the current date and the maturity date of each Collateral Obligation (with an S&P Rating of “CCC-” or higher), multiplying each Collateral Obligation’s Principal Balance by its number of years, summing the results of all Collateral Obligations in the portfolio, and dividing such amount by the Aggregate Principal Balance of all Collateral Obligations (with an S&P Rating of “CCC-” or higher).
