Securities, including call features and cash flow diversion events). You should understand the assumptions used in any analysis and evaluate whether
they are appropriate for your investment purposes. You should further consider whether the behavior of these Securities should be tested based on
assumptions different from those used to prepare the analyses.

About the Manager
Competitive Advantage (1)

We believe ICP’s integrated business model provides certain inherent advantages to participating in
Structured Credit:

ƒ Traditionally in the Structured Credit markets, investors purchase ABS


and MBS assets packaged by investment banks who have little vested
interest in the long term performance of the securitized product

ƒ ICP employs a direct and active investment approach. Through its


experienced investment management team and key asset origination
relationships, ICP creates alpha in 3 primary ways:
1) The ability to access assets at their “creation value” through its
structuring and modeling expertise
2) Refinement of investments at the loan/obligor level to mitigate
"tail risk"
3) Control of cash flow attributes designed to reduce volatility

Loan Pool

Loan Attribute Analysis (1)

¾ Statistically analyze individual attributes of the loan pool

¾ Remove loans or create additional credit enhancement for any artificial increases in creditworthiness
caused by:

ƒ Tail Risk – e.g., a subset of loans with high FICO scores relative to the average FICO score of
the pool which increases the pool’s weighted-average FICO score

ƒ Bimodal Distribution – e.g., a pool of loans with a substantial number of loans concentrated in
the high and low end of the LTV range that leads to an otherwise acceptable weighted-average
LTV

ƒ Correlation Risk – Loans that possess more than one negative attribute, e.g. a loan that has a
low FICO score and a high LTV relative to the weighted averages of these attributes in the pool

ICP analyzes the pool by importing loan level information from the underwriter into Intex Dealmaker.
This allows us to configure pool characteristics based on the loan level population as opposed to
composite representations

Loan Pool

Loan Attribute Analysis (1)

ICP analyzes each loan pool to determine whether average collateral attributes represented by the issuer
represent the true risk of the collateral pool. ICP stratifies various risk attributes in several ways to identify
any unfavorable correlations among a borrower’s credit, capacity, and collateral. Those loans exhibiting a
combination of unfavorable characteristics are individually analyzed.

¾ FICO – Credit score based on the borrower’s debt payment history and borrowing levels
¾ Debt-to-Income Ratio (DTI) – Amount of debt relative to income before and after current mortgage loan.
DTI measures the borrower’s ability to service debt
¾ Loan-to-Value Ratio (LTV) – Amount of the mortgage loan relative to the asset’s value. LTV reflects the
leverage of the loan vis-à-vis the borrower’s equity
¾ Spread at Origination (SATO) – Risk premium relative to the market on the loan as determined by the
underwriter
¾ Loan Size – Size of the mortgage loan balance (Conforming, Jumbo, Super Jumbo)
¾ Lien Position – Lender’s claim priority on the underlying asset in a foreclosure
¾ Loan Purpose (Purchase, Cash Out Refinance, Rate Refinance, Investment) –
ƒ Purchase – Loan to purchase a primary residence
ƒ Investor – Loan to purchase or refinance an investment property or a second home
ƒ Refinance – Loan to change terms of the mortgage (e.g. monthly payment, maturity of mortgage,
interest rate)
ƒ Cash Out Refinance – Loan to monetize equity in asset. Generally increases leverage of the
homeowner

ƒ Loss Severity Levels
ƒ Recovery Lag
ƒ Servicer Advances
Identify optimal subordination methodology
¾ Identify market price levels of AAA, mezzanine and other subordinate securities backed by similar loan pools.
¾ Using relative value analysis in conjunction with ICP’s OAS model, normalize price levels to account for
differences in the capital structure.
¾ Quantify use of principal subordination, over collateralization or excess interest to enhance target investment.
¾ Evaluate the economic impact to securitization then make appropriate changes to the capital structure

The ability to recast subordination levels and methodology based on ACTUAL loan characteristics allows ICP’s

¾ Analyze relative value on the security vs. comparable assets in the secondary marketplace
¾ Perform relative value analysis on a nominal basis (static cashflow) and on a OAS basis (Monte

ƒ Static cashflow analysis will incorporate supply and demand technical factors for a
particular structure as well as look at nominal spread, yield and price relationships in the
market. Additionally, it will include static scenario analysis from Bloomberg and

Appendix II - Risk Factors

Risk Factors
RISK FACTORS

An investment in the offered Securities will involve certain risks. Set forth below is a summary description of certain of the risks to which an
investor in the offered Securities would be subject. A detailed list of risk factors will be included in the Offering Memorandum (including the
preliminary and final versions thereof). An investor should not make any decision to invest in the offered Securities until after such investor has
had an opportunity to read and review carefully the Offering Memorandum.

Limited Liquidity. There is currently no market for the offered Securities. Although ICP Securities, LLC or (with respect to the Class A-1 Notes)
CIBC World Markets Corp. (the "Placement Agents") may from time to time make a market in any class of offered Securities, neither is under any
obligation to do so. In the event that a Placement Agent commences any market-making, it may discontinue the same at any time. There can be no
assurance that a secondary market for any of the offered Securities will develop, or if a secondary market does develop, that it will provide the
holders of such offered Securities with liquidity of investment or that it will continue for the life of the offered Securities. In addition, the offered
Securities are subject to transfer restrictions and can only be transferred to certain transferees. Consequently, an investor in the offered
Securities must be prepared to hold its offered Securities for an indefinite period of time.

Limited-Recourse Obligations. The Class A-1 Notes, Class A-2 Notes and Class B Notes (the "Secured Notes") will be limited-recourse
obligations of the Co-Issuers, payable solely from the Collateral pledged by the Issuer to secure the Notes. None of the security holders, members,
officers, directors, managers or incorporators of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the trustee, the administrator of the Issuer, the Collateral Manager, the
Placement Agents, any of their respective affiliates and any other person or entity will be obligated to make payments on the Notes. Consequently,
the holders of the Notes must rely solely on amounts received in respect of the Collateral for the payment of principal thereof and interest (and, in
the case of the undrawn Class A-1 Notes, commitment fees) secured thereon. There can be no assurance that the distributions on the Collateral will
be sufficient to make payments on any class of Notes, in particular after making payments on more senior classes of Notes and certain other
required amounts ranking senior to such Notes. The Issuer's ability to make payments in respect of any class of Notes will be constrained by the
terms of the Notes of classes more senior to such class and the indenture. If distributions on the Collateral are insufficient to make payments on the
Notes, no other assets will be available for payment of the deficiency and, following liquidation of all the Collateral, the obligations of the Issuer to
pay such deficiencies will be extinguished. The Co-Issuer will have no material assets.

The Class X Notes and the Class C Notes are limited obligations of the Issuer and are not secured by the Collateral, and will be issued under
Cayman Island Law and administered pursuant to a fiscal agency agreement. The Issuer has pledged substantially all of its assets to secure the
obligations.

Volatility of the Class C Notes. The Class C Notes represent a leveraged investment in the underlying Collateral. Therefore, it is expected that
changes in the value of the Class C Notes will be greater than the change in the value of the underlying Collateral, which will be subject to credit,
liquidity, interest rate and other risks. Utilization of leverage is a speculative investment technique and involves certain risks to investors. The
indebtedness of the Issuer under the Notes will result in interest expense and other costs incurred in connection with such indebtedness that may not
be covered by proceeds received from the Collateral. The use of leverage generally magnifies the Issuer's opportunities for gain and risk of loss.

52
52 CONFIDENTIAL
Risk Factors (cont.)
Subordination of Each Class of Subordinate Notes. No payment of interest on any class of Notes will be made until all accrued and unpaid interest
on the Notes of each class that is senior to such class and that remain outstanding has been paid in full. If an event of default occurs, so long as any
Notes are outstanding, the holders of the most senior class of Notes then outstanding will be entitled to determine the remedies to be exercised
under the indenture. It is anticipated that so long as the failure on any quarterly distribution date to make payment in respect of interest on the
Class C Notes will not constitute an event of default under the indenture and such interest will be deferred and capitalized. Remedies pursued by
the holders of the class or classes of Notes entitled to determine the exercise of such remedies could be adverse to the interest of the holders of the
other classes of Notes. It is anticipated that, to the extent that any losses are suffered by any of the holders of any offered Securities, such losses
will be borne, first, by the holders of the Class C Notes, second, by the holders of the Class X Notes, third, by the holders of the Class B Notes,
fourth, by the holders of the Class A-2 Notes and, fifth, by the holders of the Class A-1 Notes.

Ongoing Commitments ― the Class A-1 Notes. The Class A-1 Notes may not be fully drawn at closing. If this is the case, it is anticipated that
holders of the Class A-1 Notes will be obligated during a commitment period expected to run from the closing date to four months following the
closing date, subject to compliance by the Issuer with certain borrowing conditions, to advance funds to the Issuer until the aggregate principal
amount advanced under the Class A-1 Notes equals the aggregate amount of commitments to make such advances. Holders of Class A-1 Notes will
be entitled to a commitment fee in respect of unfunded amounts thereunder, which will be payable prior to interest on all other classes of Notes.

In the event that the Issuer fails to satisfy the conditions to borrowing or the Class A-1 Noteholders fail to fund borrowings for any other reason, the
Issuer will not be able to complete the acquisition of the Collateral portfolio and is not likely to have sufficient interest proceeds to pay interest on
all classes of Notes.

Nature of Collateral. The Collateral will be subject to credit, liquidity, interest rate, market, fraud, operations and structural risk. The amount and
nature of the Collateral securing the Notes will be established with a view to withstanding certain assumed deficiencies in payment occasioned by
defaults in respect of the securities included in the Collateral. If any deficiencies exceed such assumed levels, however, payments on the Notes
could be adversely affected. To the extent that a default occurs with respect to any security included in the Collateral, it is not likely that the Issuer
will receive the full amount of principal and interest owing to the Issuer in respect of such security. The market value of the Collateral generally
will fluctuate with, among other things, the financial condition of the obligors on or issuers of the securities included in the Collateral, the
remaining term thereof to maturity, general economic conditions, the condition of certain financial markets, political events, developments or trends
in any particular industry and changes in prevailing interest rates.
It is currently anticipated that [70]% of the Collateral will have been purchased by the closing date. The Issuer expects that it will have purchased
100% of the Collateral by the ramp-up completion date, and that the Collateral will satisfy the overcollateralization tests. However, there can be no
assurance that this will occur. Failure to satisfy the overcollateralization tests may result in repayment or redemption of all or a portion of the Notes
(in accordance with the priority of payments to be specified in the Offering Memorandum).

Average Life of the Notes. The average life of each class of Notes is expected to be shorter than the number of years until their stated maturity.
Such average lives will be affected by numerous factors described in the Offering Memorandum.

53
53 CONFIDENTIAL
Risk Factors (cont.)
Cap Corridor Securities. In some cases, RMBS securities may accrue interest based on LIBOR. However, interest payable on a distribution date
may be capped based on the weighted average coupon of the underlying mortgage pool. A substantial portion of these mortgage loans may pay
interest at a fixed rate. As a result, if LIBOR increases, this increase will not be reflected in the interest receivable by the holders of the RMBS
securities. Some RMBS are structured with a reserve account to mitigate the negative impact caused by an increase in LIBOR. In addition, the
issuer of RMBS may enter into one or more interest rate caps or yield maintenance agreements to further mitigate this risk. These agreements
generally provide for payments of interest at LIBOR, subject to a minimum strike price and a maximum cap rate. Very often, ratings assigned to
RMBS securities will not apply to any payments payable under such agreements to the RMBS issuer. To the extent that LIBOR is lower than the
strike price or exceeds the cap rate, these agreements will not cover any shortfalls resulting from an interest rate mismatch between the underlying
mortgage pool and the LIBOR based coupon on the securities. Securities earning interest at a wider spread above LIBOR will begin to experience
losses in respect of interest payments on their securities at a lower LIBOR rate than those securities having a lower spread, and accordingly are
more exposed to the risk of increases in LIBOR. Furthermore, the amount payable under these agreements may be calculated based on a preset
principal amortization schedule. These amortization schedules would be calculated based on an assumed prepayment rate for the fixed rate
mortgage loans. If, however, the actual prepayment rate is slower than the prepayment rate assumed for purposes of setting the amortization
schedule, payments under the agreement will not fully cover the mismatch between interest on the underlying mortgage pool and the LIBOR
payments accrued on the securities. In addition, the agreement may be scheduled to terminate on the clean-up call date or on another date occurring
prior to the stated maturity of the securities. These transactions will also be subject to the risk of non-performance by the counterparties to these
agreements. The RMBS transactions described above are referred to as "Cap Corridor Securities." It is expected that a substantial portion of the
Collateral Debt Securities purchased by the Issuer on the Closing Date will be Cap Corridor Securities. Although Cap Corridor Securities are
Floating Rate Securities, under certain LIBOR and prepayment scenarios, they will not as a practical matter have the characteristics of LIBOR-
based assets, and may accordingly have an adverse effect on the Issuer's ability to pay interest on the Notes.

Early Redemption of the Notes. The Notes may be subject to early redemption [three] years after the closing date at the election of the holders of
662/3% or more of the aggregate outstanding amount of the Class C Notes. It is anticipated that if an overcollateralization test is breached, interest
proceeds and then principal proceeds will be applied to pay principal on the Notes until the applicable overcollateralization test is met. In addition,
it is anticipated that if the Notes have not been paid in full prior to [eight] years following the closing date, an auction of the Collateral will be
conducted and, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, will be sold and used to redeem the Notes. The Notes may also be subject to early
redemption on the occurrence of certain adverse tax events to be described in the Offering Memorandum.

Certain Conflicts of Interest. The activities of the Collateral Manager, the Placement Agents and their respective affiliates may result in certain
conflicts of interest.

Conflicts of Interest Involving the Collateral Manager. Various potential and actual conflicts of interest may arise from the overall investment
activities of the Collateral Manager and its affiliates for their own accounts or for the accounts of others. The Collateral Manager and its affiliates
may invest for their own accounts or for the accounts of others in debt obligations that would be appropriate investments for the Issuer and they
have no duty, in making such investments, to act in a way that is favorable to the Issuer or the holders of the offered Securities. Such investments
may be different from those made on behalf of the Issuer. The Collateral Manager and its affiliates may have economic interests in or other
relationships with Issuers in whose obligations or securities the Issuer may invest. In particular, such persons may make and/or hold an investment

54
54 CONFIDENTIAL
Risk Factors (cont.)
in securities that may be, pari passu, senior or junior in ranking to an investment in securities of the same Issuer that are held by the Issuer or in
which partners, security holders, officers, directors, agents or employees of such persons serve on boards of directors or otherwise have ongoing
relationships. Each of such ownership and other relationships may result in securities laws restrictions on transactions in such securities by the
Issuer and otherwise create conflicts of interest for the Issuer. In such instances, the Collateral Manager and its affiliates may in their discretion,
subject to certain restrictions, make investment recommendations and decisions that may be the same as or different from those made with respect
to the Issuer's investments.
Although the officers and employees of the Collateral Manager will devote as much time to the Issuer as the Collateral Manager deems appropriate,
the principals and employees may have conflicts in allocating their time and services among the Issuer and other accounts advised by the Collateral
Manager and/or its affiliates. In addition, the Collateral Manager and its affiliates, in connection with their other business activities, may acquire
material non-public confidential information that may restrict the Collateral Manager from purchasing securities or selling securities for itself or its
clients (including the Issuer) or otherwise using such information for the benefit of its clients or itself.
The Collateral Manager and any of its affiliates may engage in any other business and furnish investment management and advisory services to
others, which may include, without limitation, serving as Collateral manager or investment manager for, investing in, lending to, or being affiliated
with, other entities organized to issue Collateralized bond obligations secured by securities such as those included in the Collateral and other trusts
and pooled investment vehicles that acquire interests in, provide financing to, or otherwise deal with securities issued by Issuers that would be
suitable for inclusion in the Collateral. The Collateral Manager will be free, in its sole discretion, to make recommendations to others, or effect
transactions on behalf of itself or for others, that may be the same as or different from those effected on behalf of the Issuer, and the Collateral
Manager may furnish investment management and advisory services to others who may have investment policies similar to those followed by the
Collateral Manager with respect to the Issuer and who may own securities of the same class, or which are the same type as, the securities included
in the Collateral.
Although the Collateral Manager or one of its affiliates may at times be a holder of the offered Securities, its interests and incentives will not
necessarily be completely aligned with those of the other holders of the offered Securities (or of the holders of any particular class of Notes).

Conflicts of Interest Involving the Placement Agents. Certain of the high grade RMBS securities (each, a “Collateral Debt Security”) acquired or to
be acquired by the Issuer will consist of obligations of issuers or obligors, or obligations sponsored or serviced by companies, for which the
Placement Agents or affiliates thereof has acted as underwriter, agent, placement agent or dealer or for which the Placement Agents or affiliates
thereof has acted as lender or provided other commercial or investment banking services. The Placement Agents or affiliates thereof may structure
issuers of Collateral Debt Securities and arrange to place such Collateral Debt Securities with the Issuer. The Placement Agents or their affiliates
may from time to time enter into derivative transactions with third parties with respect to the offered Securities or with respect to Collateral Debt
Securities acquired by the Issuer, and the Placement Agents or their affiliates may, in connection therewith, acquire (or establish long, short or
derivative financial positions with respect to) offered Securities, Collateral Debt Securities or one or more portfolios of financial assets similar to
the portfolio of Collateral Debt Securities acquired by (or intended to be acquired by) the Issuer. The Placement Agents, their employees, affiliates
and employees of affiliates will receive compensation in connection with the structuring of the CDO and/or distribution of the offered Securities.
These activities may create certain conflicts of interest, and there can be no assurance that the terms on which the Issuer entered into (or enters into)
any of the foregoing transactions with a Placement Agent (or an affiliate thereof) were or are the most favorable terms available in the market at the
time from other potential counterparties.

55
55 CONFIDENTIAL
Risk Factors (cont.)
Conflicts Relating to Purchase of Collateral Debt Securities. It is anticipated that many of the securities that will be purchased by the Issuer on the
date on which the offered Securities are issued will be purchased from a portfolio of securities held by an affiliate of CIBC World Markets Corp.
pursuant to a warehousing agreement between such affiliate of CIBC World Markets Corp. and the Collateral Manager. The Issuer will purchase
securities included in such warehouse portfolio only to the extent that such purchases are consistent with the investment guidelines of the Issuer, the
restrictions contained in the indenture and the collateral management agreement and applicable law. The purchase price payable by the Issuer for
such securities will be based on the purchase price paid when such securities were acquired under the warehousing agreement, accrued and unpaid
interest on such securities as of the date they are acquired by the Issuer and gains or losses incurred in connection with hedging arrangements
entered into with respect to such securities. Accordingly, it is likely that the Issuer will bear the risk of market changes subsequent
to the acquisition of such securities and related hedging arrangements pursuant to the warehousing agreement as if it had acquired such securities
directly.
It is expected that an affiliate of a Placement Agent will enter into a master forward sale agreement with the Issuer on the closing date pursuant to
which the Issuer will agree to acquire securities from such affiliate on a forward sale basis during the ramp-up period. Pursuant to such agreement,
such securities could be acquired on any date during the ramp-up period at the price specified in the master forward sale agreement, which may not
represent the market value of such securities on the date that they would be delivered to the Issuer. The securities may or may not satisfy the
eligibility criteria for inclusion in the Collateral at the time purchased by the Issuer, and compliance with such eligibility criteria would not be
independently monitored by such affiliate.

Significant Fees Reduce Proceeds Available for Purchase of Collateral Debt Securities. On the Closing Date, the Co-Issuers will use a portion of
the gross proceeds from the offering to pay various fees and expenses, including expenses, fees and commissions incurred in connection with the
acquisition of the Collateral, structuring and placement agency fees payable to the Placement Agents, and legal, accounting, rating agency and other
fees. Closing fees and expenses reduce the amount of the gross proceeds of the offering available to purchase Collateral and, therefore, the return
to purchasers of the offered Securities. Rating agencies will consider the amount of net proceeds available to purchase Collateral in determining
any ratings assigned by them to the offered Securities. For information about the amount of such fees and expenses, please review the final
Offering Memorandum before investing.

Redemption and Diversion of Interest Proceeds. The offered Securities will be subject to redemption under certain circumstances described in the
Offering Memorandum (including, under certain circumstances, upon the failure of certain overcollateralization tests to be satisfied). Any such
redemption may cause the economic return from an investment in the offered Securities to vary from the economic returns that may be modeled in
these marketing materials. In addition, the failure to satisfy certain overcollateralization tests could result in an elimination, deferral or reduction in
the payments to be made to holders of one or more classes of Notes, which could adversely impact the economic return realized by such holders.

Auction Call Redemption. If the Notes have not been redeemed in full within [eight] years following the closing date, then an auction of the
Collateral Debt Securities will be conducted and, provided that certain conditions are satisfied, in particular with respect to the sufficiency of
anticipated proceeds from the proposed sale of the Collateral Debt Securities, the Collateral Debt Securities will be sold and the Notes will be
redeemed. If such conditions are not satisfied and the auction is not successfully conducted on such auction date, the Collateral Manager will
conduct quarterly auctions thereafter; however the Notes will not be redeemed until the conditions are satisfied.

56
56 CONFIDENTIAL
Risk Factors (cont.)
Application of Principal Proceeds. After the end of the reinvestment period, principal proceeds will be used to pay principal on the Notes. The
timing of receipts of principal on the Collateral Debt Securities will depend on, among other factors, the rate of prepayments on Collateral Debt
Securities which may be influenced by the level of interest rates and economic conditions. The Co-Issuers cannot predict the actual rate of
principal payments that will be experienced on the Collateral Debt Securities.

Relation to Prior Investment Results. Any prior investment results of any person or entity described herein will not be indicative of the Issuer's
future investment results. Such results are intended only to give potential investors information concerning the general experience of the relevant
person or entity as an asset manager or adviser and is not intended as a representation or warranty by the Placement Agents or any other person or
entity as to the actual composition of or performance of any future investments that would be made by the Issuer. The nature of, and risks
associated with, the Issuer's future investments may differ substantially from (and will be subject to constraints that were not applicable to) those
investments and strategies undertaken historically by such persons and entities. There can be no assurance that the Issuer's investments will
perform as well as, or in a manner similar to, the past investments of any such persons or entities.

Hypothetical Illustrations, Forecasts and Estimates. Any hypothetical illustrations, forecasts and estimates contained herein are forward looking
statements and are based upon assumptions that are disclosed herein. Hypothetical illustrations are necessarily speculative in nature, and it can be
expected that some or all of the assumptions underlying the hypothetical illustrations will not materialize or will vary significantly from actual
results. Accordingly, the hypothetical illustrations are only an estimate. Actual results may vary from the hypothetical illustrations and the
variations may be material.
Certain hypothetical performance analyses are based on assumptions that may prove to be incorrect. Prospective investors should understand those
assumptions and evaluate whether they are appropriate for their purposes. Certain analyses are based on mathematical models that use hypothetical
inputs to calculate results. As with all models, results may vary significantly depending upon the values of the inputs used. Models used in any
analysis may be proprietary, making the results difficult for any third party to reproduce. Moreover, hypothetical performance analyses will address
only certain aspects of the characteristics of the offered Securities and will not provide a complete assessment of the results that may follow from all
possible contingencies (including default, interest rate and other scenarios and certain economic features of the offered Securities, including call
features and cash flow diversion events). Prospective investors should consider whether the behavior of these securities should be tested based on
assumptions different from those used to prepare these analyses.

Mandatory Repayment of the Notes. If any overcollateralization test applicable to a class of Notes is not met, interest proceeds and, to the extent
that the application of interest proceeds is insufficient, principal proceeds will be used to the extent that funds are available in accordance with the
priority of payments and to the extent necessary to restore the relevant overcollateralization tests to certain minimum required levels, will be used to
repay principal of one or more classes of Notes.
In addition, if the Issuer is unable to obtain confirmation of the ratings of the Notes from each of the rating agencies rating the Notes, first,
uninvested proceeds, then, to the extent that the application of uninvested proceeds is insufficient, interest proceeds, then, to the extent that the
application of uninvested proceeds and interest proceeds is insufficient, principal proceeds, will be applied on the first quarterly distribution date
following such rating confirmation failure and on each quarterly distribution date thereafter, first, the Class A-1 Notes, then, the Class A-2 Notes,
then, the Class B Notes, then, the Class X Notes and, then, the Class C Notes, in each case to the extent necessary to obtain such rating
confirmation from each of the rating agencies.

Risk Factors (cont.)
Either of the foregoing could result in an elimination, deferral or reduction in the payments in respect of interest or commitment fee or the principal
repayments made to the holders of one or more classes of Notes that are subordinate to any other outstanding class of Notes, which could adversely
impact the returns of such holders.
The Collateral Manager may, on any distribution date occurring prior to the last day of the reinvestment period, in its sole discretion elect to apply
all or a portion of the principal proceeds available for reinvestment to the payment of principal of the Notes in accordance with the priority of
payments, which application may result in additional payments of principal on the Notes.

Interest Rate Risk. The Notes will bear interest at a rate based on LIBOR. Certain of the Collateral Debt Securities included in the Collateral will
include obligations that bear interest at fixed rates. Accordingly, the Notes are subject to interest rate risk to the extent that there is an interest rate
mismatch between the floating rate at which interest accrues on the Notes and the rates at which interest accrues on fixed rate securities included in
the Collateral. A portion of such interest rate mismatch may be mitigated by one or more hedge agreements which the Issuer may enter into after
the closing date. There can be no assurance that the Collateral Debt Securities and eligible investments, together with such hedge agreements, will
in all circumstances generate sufficient interest proceeds to make timely payments of interest on the Notes.

Reinvestment Risk. For the first [five] years following the closing date (the "Reinvestment Period"), the Collateral Manager will have discretion to
reinvest principal proceeds in substitute Collateral Debt Securities in compliance with certain specified eligibility criteria. Such potential
reinvestment (or lack thereof) may have an adverse effect on the value of the Collateral Debt Securities and on the ability of the Issuer to make
payments on the Notes. The impact, including any adverse impact, of the reinvestment (or lack of reinvestment) of principal proceeds on the
Noteholders would be magnified with respect to the respective classes of Notes, by the leveraged nature of such respective classes of Notes.
The earnings with respect to substitute Collateral Debt Securities will depend, among other factors, on reinvestment rates available in the
marketplace at the time and on the availability of investments satisfying the eligibility criteria and acceptable to the Collateral Manager. The need
to satisfy such eligibility criteria and identify acceptable investments may require the purchase of Collateral Debt Securities having lower yields
than those initially acquired or require that principal proceeds be maintained temporarily in cash or certain eligible investments that are likely to
have a low yield, which may reduce the yield on the investment portfolio. Further, issuers of Collateral Debt Securities may be more likely to
exercise any rights they may have to redeem such obligations when interest rates or spreads are declining. Any decrease in the yield on the
Collateral Debt Securities will have the effect of reducing the amounts available to make payments of principal and interest on the Notes.

Credit Ratings. Credit ratings of debt securities (including any securities issued by the Issuer or any Collateral Debt Security comprising the
investment portfolio of the Issuer) represent the rating agencies' opinions regarding their credit quality and are not a guarantee of quality. Rating
agencies attempt to evaluate the safety of principal and interest payments and do not evaluate the risks of fluctuations in market value, and
therefore, credit ratings do not fully reflect all risks of an investment. Also, rating agencies may fail to make timely changes in credit ratings in
response to subsequent events, and the credit quality of a debt security may be worse than a rating indicates.

Taxation. Taxation of the offered Securities is complex. Clients should consult their tax advisors.

Risk Factors (cont.)
Tax Treatment of Notes. Noteholders (other than holders of Class C Notes) will be required to treat such Notes as debt for U.S. Federal income tax
purposes. It is possible that the treatment of the Class B Notes or Class X Notes as debt of the Issuer could be challenged by the U.S. Internal
Revenue Service. If such a challenge were successful, such Notes would be treated as equity securities of the Issuer, and the U.S. Federal income
tax consequences of investing in such Notes would be similar to the consequences of investing in the Class C Notes without electing to treat the
Issuer as a qualified electing fund.

U.S. Taxes on the Issuer. The Issuer expects to conduct its affairs so that its income generally will not be subject to tax on a net income basis in the
United States or any other jurisdiction. The Issuer also expects that payments received under the Collateral Debt Securities generally will not be
subject to withholding tax imposed by the United States or other countries that may be treated as the source of the payments. The Issuer's income
might become subject to net income or withholding taxes in the United States or other jurisdictions, however, due to unanticipated circumstances,
change in law, contrary positions of relevant tax authorities or other causes. The imposition of unanticipated net income or withholding taxes on the
Issuer could materially impair the Issuer's ability to make payments on the offered Securities.

ERISA. The Class B Notes and the Class X Notes are not eligible for purchase by benefit plan investors.
