5. Issues & Options THE ISSUE In August 2011 the Borrower advised that HMRC was taking action to recover around £21m relating to unpaid VAT and associated interest and penalties. Despite numerous requests the Borrower has not provided the information requested in relation to an apparent misallocation of funds leading to this non-payment. The Special Servicer has corresponded and held discussions with the Borrower to: Establish how the non-payment occurred. Set out the basis upon which the Special Servicer might contemplate the payment of the outstanding VAT amount. Discuss other options that would enable a continued consensual workout of the loan. No satisfactory response has been received from the Borrower in relation to the above. HMRC served statutory demands on 29 Borrower entities and 2 General Partners in November 2011. However, HMRC agreed to refrain from proceeding with winding up petitions until the end of May 2012, pending the outcome of a proposed marketing campaign by the Borrower’s advisers (Lazard) to find a purchaser for the Loan. We understand HMRC are “staying their hand” pending the outcome of the loan sales proposal THE LOAN SALE OFFER Following a marketing campaign Lazard has identified a potential purchaser for the Loan, who has provided a final indicative offer equating to £120 million, based upon an assumed MTM on the senior and junior interest rate swaps of £275M with an option for Class A Noteholders only to participate alongside the buyer in the equity of the Borrower. RECOVERY OPTIONS The Special Servicer agreed to consult informally with certain Class A Noteholders who were prepared to become restricted in relation to: The indicative offer for the loan sale. The other options available to the Special Servicer in this regard: Payment of the outstanding VAT from the Liquidity Facility Enforcement with full termination of the hedge Enforcement without full termination of the hedge The implications of the various options is considered within this document.

6. RECOVERY OPTION ASSESMENTAs at 11 June 2012 unless otherwise indicated

7. Loan Sale Option Key Terms Initial Proposal received 27 April 2012. Subsequent offer received 20 July 2012 Purchase of Senior loan by Special Purpose Vehicle Results in an upfront Cash to be distributed to Noteholders Subsequent offer dated 20th July 2012 enabled Class A Noteholders to participate in the purchase price by way of exchanging some of their Notes for equity ranking paripassuwith the new equity. Offer is subject to due diligence on real estate and the Loan, the Issuer and the Borrowers structure, review of all HMRC correspondence, Note Trustee consent and purchasers investment committee approval Offer based upon an assessment of “Gross Enterprise Value” and subject to deductions representing the full value of the Swap MTM; Capex and Transaction Fees; Liquidity Fee Repayment; and Payment to HMRC in relation to outstanding VAT. Benefits Avoids immediate enforcement and associated costs. Provides some certainty on recovery whist allowing some Class A Noteholders to participate in the potential upside Mitigates against further transaction risk and real estate risk Issues/Risks Special Servicer has no power to execute a loan sale Requires Note Trustee consent which introduces considerable execution risk Offer subject to significant conditionality and due diligence requirements Requires payment of at least £20M to unsecured creditors Limited participation in potential recovery in hedge MTM and/or real estate markets available for Noteholders
8. Payment of the Outstanding VAT and ongoing consensual workout Benefits Avoids immediate crystallisation of hedging MTM at current high levels Avoids enforcement and associated costs Issues/Risks Misallocation of VAT monies by Borrower ignored Unsecured creditor (HMRC) prioritised over Noteholders Risk of other unsecured creditors arising – will also have to be prioritised Risks of Portfolio underperformance due to continued lack of capital and incentivised asset management resource Continued reliance on sponsor co-operation No change to Asset/Property Manager possible No sales of problem assets possible Risk of Borrower filing for insolvency which would lead to enforcement in any event Quarterly hedge payments continue placing considerable stress on deal cashflows Depletes Liquidity Facility leading to exhaustion by Jan 2014 (base case) and Note EoD
9. Enforcement with Full Termination of the Hedge Benefits Avoids payment to unsecured creditors now and in the future Removes the need for Sponsor reliance and enables Special Servicer to exercise control over portfolio through Administrator/Receivers and appointment of new Asset/Property Managers. Enables sales of poor performing assets whilst other assets can be held for longer term recovery Avoids payment of empty rates. Forecast to be circa £2.6M of savings in the first year. Quarterly hedge payments cease Enables Senior Lenders to take the benefit of circa £3M held on escrow for Junior lenders Issues/Risks Crystallises hedging MTM at relatively high levels Default Interest is due on unpaid hedge MTM liability All surplus cashflows diverted to Hedge Counterparty to pay down hedging Substantial additional costs incurred through enforcement process, appointment of Administrators/Receivers and new Asset Managers. Estimated to be circa £2M - £2.5m in 1st year Payment of loan interest from Liquidity Facility as all rental and capital receipts from the property portfolio flow to Barclays will put pressure on cashflows and lead to exhaustion of LF by April 2015 (base case) and Note EoD.
10. Enforcement Without Full Termination Of The Hedge Benefits As for previous “Enforcement” slide except quarterly hedge payments continue PLUS: Allows sales of problem assets and added asset management resource without crystallising the hedge immediately. Diversifies risk of crystallisation of hedge MTM at intervals over a longer time period May allow lenders to benefit from a reduction in hedge MTM should interest rates rise Avoids payment of Default Interest on hedge MTM Places less stress on cashflows, which provides greater stability and avoids exhaustion of LF and Note EoD. May allow retention of limited amount of capital from sales for reinvestment in asset management initiatives in portfolio. Issues/Risks Requires property sales to facilitate ongoing hedge repayments Hedge MTM is not fixed and could rise over the sale period Quarterly payments continue to be made on the Hedges until it is fully paid down.
