|Definition of ArrearsThis arrears multiplier is calculated as the arrears amount ( which is the difference between the expected monthly repayments and the amount that has actually been paid, i.e. a total of under and/or over payments ) divided by the monthly amount repayable. It is recalculated every time the arrears amount changes, i.e. on the date when a payment is due. |            |

*Excess spread is calculated by reference to deferred consideration (determined according to relevant accounting policies) for the period, adjusted for non-cash related items and items relating to amounts falling due
after transfers to the first and second reserve funds in the Funding Revenue Priority of Payments, expressed as a percentage of the average note balance over that period.

**The figures for excess spread in prior periods have been restated to incorporate the cumulative effects of accounting adjustments. This restatement does not affect the past or current cash value of amounts standing
to the credit of either the first or the second reserve funds.

Proposed Changes
  Abbey has requested Fitch Ratings to confirm the impact on the rating of the issued securities if the minimum required short term rating of Abbey as sterling account bank / GIC provider is changed to F1 from F1+. Once
  Fitch has completed its review of the appropriate documentation amendments, it expects to confirm that this change will have no effect on the rating of any of the securities issued by any of the Issuers. In addition, it has indicated that in the
  event that Abbey is downgraded below F1 then Abbey's obligations will either need to be guaranteed by a third party rated at least F1 or transferred to a counter party rated at least F1, within 30 days of the downgrade, to prevent a downgrade by
  Fitch of any of the issued securities
