Deferral Interest Payment
Cumulative Deferral

Any Distribution deferred pursuant to Condition 4(e) shall constitute "Arrears of Distribution". The Issuer may, at its sole discretion, elect to further defer any Arrears of Distribution by complying with the foregoing notice requirement applicable to any deferral of an accrued Distribution. The Issuer is not subject to any limit as to the number of times Distributions and Arrears of Distribution can or shall be deferred pursuant to Condition 4(e) except that Condition 4(e)(iv) shall be complied with until all outstanding Arrears of Distribution have been paid in full. Each amount of Arrears of Distribution shall bear interest as if it constituted the principal of the Securities at the prevailing Distribution Rate and the amount of such interest (the "Additional Distribution Amount") with respect to Arrears of Distribution shall be due and payable pursuant to Condition 4 and shall be calculated by applying the prevailing Distribution Rate to the amount of the Arrears of Distribution and otherwise mutatis mutandis as provided in the foregoing provisions of Condition 4. The Additional Distribution Amount accrued up to any Distribution Payment Date shall be added for the purpose of calculating the Additional Distribution Amount accruing thereafter, to the amount of Arrears of Distribution remaining unpaid on such Distribution Payment Date so that it will itself become Arrears of Distribution.
