2 IT IS ACCORDINGLY RESOLVED THAT
SPECIAL RESOLUTION 1

SPECIAL RESOLUTION 2
2.2 Subject to the passing of Special Resolution 1, upon a poll, by a majority
consisting of not less than three-fourths of the votes cast at such poll by the
Noteholders of all of the Notes, present in person or by proxy, the Issuer be
and is hereby authorised to amend Condition 7.3.3 by -
2.2.1 deleting the phrase "provided that a Refinancing Notice may not be given
less than 20 days prior to the Step-Up Call Date or any Interest Payment
Date thereafter" and substituting it with the phrase "provided that a
Refinancing Notice may not be given less than 5 days prior to the
proposed Issue Date (provided that such proposed Issue Date falls on a
Business Day during the Refinancing Period) (the "Proposed Issue
Date")" in Condition 7.3.3;
2.2.2 deleting the phrase "…on the Step-Up Call Date or any Interest Payment
Date falling thereafter, unless a new Refinancing Notice is issued no later
than 3 Business Days prior to the proposed Issue Date falling during the
Period 22 November 2010 and 21 February 2011" and replacing it with
"…on the Proposed Issue Date, unless a new Refinancing Notice is issued
no later than 5 days prior to the rescheduled Proposed Issue Date

2.2.3 deleting the phrase ", subject to investment in Permitted Investments as

Condition 7.3.3 and the phrase "The proceeds of the issue of any
Refinancing Notes may, pending application in accordance with the

time during the Refinancing Period, to issue Refinancing Notes in order to

any time prior to the issue of the Refinancing Notes and, following such
withdrawal, will not be entitled to issue any further Tranche of Notes for
the purpose mentioned in this Condition 7.3.3 with respect to such
Refinanced Notes and will not be obliged to redeem the Refinanced Notes
on the Proposed Issue Date, unless a new Refinancing Notice is issued no
later than 5 days prior to the rescheduled Proposed Issue Date (provided
that such rescheduled Proposed Issue Date falls on a Business Day during
the Refinancing Period). Notwithstanding the Priority of Payments, the

redeem the Refinanced Notes; and no Noteholder (other than Noteholders
of the Refinanced Notes) or any other creditor of the Issuer will have any
claim to such proceeds."
