 1. Traditional asset backed securities are securities,  
 often with variable expected redemption profiles issued 
 by Special Purpose Vehicles and typically backed by     
 pools of receivables from loans or personal credit.     
 Securitisations are securities with fixed redemption    
 profiles that are issued by Special Purpose Vehicles and 
 secured on revenues from specific assets or operating   
 companies and Debentures are securities with fixed      
 redemption profiles issued by firms typically secured on 
 property.                                               
 2. The underlying reference portfolio has had no        
 reference entity defaults during the period ended 30    
 June 2014. The CDOs are termed as super senior since    
 default losses on the reference portfolio have to exceed 
 27.5%, on average across the reference portfolio, before 
 the CDOs incur any default losses. Assuming an average  
 recovery rate of 30%, then over 39% of the reference    
 names would have to default before the CDOs incur any   
 default losses. The CDOs are valued using an external   
 valuation which is based on observable market inputs.   
 This is then validated against the market valuation.

 2. The CDOs are termed as super senior since default losses have to exceed 27.5%, on average across the reference portfolio, before the CDOs incur any default losses. The underlying reference portfolio has had no reference entity defaults in 2013 or 2014. Losses are limited under the terms off the CDOs to assets and collateral invested.
