Full text of Section 2.11

Section 2.11 Substitution Event.
(a) “Substitution Event” means, with respect to the Non-Standard Reference Obligation:
(i) the Non-Standard Reference Obligation is redeemed in whole;
(ii) the aggregate amounts due under the Non-Standard Reference Obligation have been reduced by redemption or otherwise below USD 10,000,000 (or its equivalent in the relevant Obligation Currency, as determined by the Calculation Agent); or
(iii) for any reason, other than due to the existence or occurrence of a Credit Event, the Non-Standard Reference Obligation is no longer an obligation of the Reference Entity (either directly or as provider of a guarantee).
(b) For purposes of identification of the Non-Standard Reference Obligation, any change in the Non-Standard Reference Obligation’s CUSIP or ISIN number or other similar identifier will not, in and of itself, constitute a Substitution Event .
(c) If an event described in Sections 2.11(a)(i) or (ii) has occurred on or prior to the Trade Date, then a Substitution Event shall be deemed to have occurred pursuant to Sections 2.11(a)(i) or (ii), as the case may be, on the Trade Date.
