Article 5

Issue of Definitive Covered Bonds

5.1       Upon notice from Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg (in the case of Bearer Covered Bonds only) pursuant to the terms of
the relevant Bearer Global Covered Bonds or upon the Issuer becoming obliged pursuant to Condition 2 (in the case of Registered
Covered Bonds only) to issue Definitive Covered Bonds, the Principal Paying Agent (in the case of Bearer Covered Bonds) and the
Registrar (in the case of Registered Covered Bonds) are each hereby authorized to:

		(a)	authenticate such Definitive Covered Bonds in accordance
with the provisions hereof; and

Article 6

Terms of issue

6.1       Each of the Principal Paying Agent and the Registrar will cause all Covered Bonds delivered to and held by it or them under
this Agreement to be maintained in safe custody and will ensure that Covered Bonds are issued only in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement, the Trust Deed, the Terms and Conditions and, where applicable, the relevant Global Covered Bonds.

6.2       For the purposes of Article 2 (Appointment of Agents), each of the Principal Paying Agent and the Registrar, as the case
may be, is entitled to treat a telephone, electronic or facsimile communication from a person purporting to be (and whom the Principal
Paying Agent or the Registrar, as the case may be, believes in good faith to be) the authorized representative of the Issuer named
in the list referred to in, or notified pursuant to, Section 24.7, or any other list duly provided for the purpose by the Issuer
to the Principal Paying Agent or the Registrar, as the case may be, as sufficient instructions and authority of the Issuer for
the Principal Paying Agent or the Registrar to act in accordance with Article 3 (Issue of Bearer Global Covered Bonds and
Registered Global Covered Bonds).

6.3       In the event that a person who has signed a master Temporary Global Covered Bond, a master Permanent Global Covered Bond,
a master Registered Global Covered Bond or a Registered Definitive Covered Bond held by the Principal Paying Agent or the Registrar,
as the case may be, on behalf of the Issuer ceases to be an authorized representative of the Issuer as described in Section 24.7,
the Principal Paying Agent or the Registrar will (unless the Issuer gives notice to the Principal Paying Agent or the Registrar,
as the case may be that Covered Bonds signed by that person do not constitute valid and binding obligations of the Issuer or otherwise
until replacements have been provided to the Principal Paying Agent or the Registrar, as the case may be) continue to have authority
to issue Covered Bonds signed by that person, and the Issuer warrants to the Principal Paying Agent and the Registrar that those
Covered Bonds will be valid and binding obligations of the Issuer. Promptly upon any person ceasing to be an authorized representative
of the Issuer, the Issuer will provide the Principal Paying Agent with replacement master Temporary Global Covered Bond(s) and
replacement Permanent Global Covered Bond(s) and will provide the Registrar with replacement master Registered Global Covered Bonds
and Registered Definitive Covered Bonds and the Principal Paying Agent and the Registrar, as the case may be, will, upon receipt
of such replacements, cancel and destroy the master Temporary Global Covered Bond(s), master Permanent Global Covered Bond(s),
master Registered Global Covered Bonds and Registered Definitive Covered Bonds, as applicable, held by them which are signed by
such person and will provide the Issuer with a certificate of destruction in respect thereof, specifying the Covered Bonds so cancelled
and destroyed.

6.4       Each of the Principal Paying Agent and the Registrar will provide Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg and, in the case
of the Registrar, DTC, with the notifications, instructions or information to be given by it to Euroclear and/or Clearstream,
Luxembourg and/or DTC, as the case may be.

    	 

    	- 12 -

    

6.5        Where Registered Global Covered Bonds or Bearer Global Covered Bonds that are CGCBs are to be issued and are to be credited
on a delivery against payment basis, unless otherwise agreed, the Principal Paying Agent shall give instructions to Euroclear and/or
Clearstream, Luxembourg to credit such Covered Bonds represented by the Registered Global Covered Bonds or Bearer Global Covered
Bonds, as the case may be, to the Principal Paying Agent's distribution account following the delivery of such Global Covered Bond
to the Common Depositary. Each Bearer Covered Bond that is a CGCB, or each Registered Global Covered Bond which is so credited
to the Principal Paying Agent's distribution account with Euroclear, DTC or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, or the
Paying Agent’s account with DTC, shall be held to the order of the Issuer pending delivery to the relevant Dealer on a delivery
against payment basis (unless otherwise indicated in the relevant Final Terms) in accordance with the normal procedures of Euroclear,
DTC or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be. The Principal Paying Agent shall on the Issue Date and against receipt of funds
from the relevant Dealer(s) (unless otherwise indicated in the relevant Final Terms) transfer the proceeds of issue to the Issuer
to the account notified to it by the Issuer and instruct the Common Depositary to instruct Euroclear, DTC or Clearstream, Luxembourg,
as the case may be, to credit the relevant securities account(s) of the relevant Dealer(s).

6.6       If the Bearer Covered Bonds are NGCBs, the Principal Paying Agent shall, on behalf of the Issuer, instruct the Common Safekeeper
to effectuate the relevant Global Covered Bond and instruct Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg to make the appropriate entries
in their records to reflect the initial outstanding aggregate principal amount of the relevant Tranche of Covered Bonds.

6.7       If the Principal Paying Agent pays an amount (the “Payment Advance”) to the Issuer on the basis
that a payment (the “Payment”) has been or will be received from a Dealer and if the Payment is not received
by the Principal Paying Agent on the date the Principal Paying Agent pays the Issuer, the Issuer will repay to the Principal Paying
Agent the Payment Advance and will pay interest on the Payment Advance (or the unreimbursed portion thereof) from (and including)
the date the Payment Advance is made to (but excluding) the earlier of repayment of the Payment Advance or receipt by the Principal
Paying Agent of the Payment at a rate quoted at that time by the Principal Paying Agent as its cost of funding the Payment Advance
provided that evidence of the basis of such rate is given in writing by the Principal Paying Agent to the Issuer. For the avoidance
of doubt, the Principal Paying Agent will not be obliged to pay any amount to the Issuer if it has not received satisfactory confirmation
that it is to receive the amount from a Dealer.

6.8       Except in the case of an issue where the Principal Paying Agent does not act as receiving bank for the Issuer in respect
of the purchase price of the Covered Bonds being issued, if on the Issue Date a Dealer does not pay the full purchase price due
from it in respect of any Covered Bond (the “Defaulted Covered Bond”) and, as a result, such Defaulted Covered
Bond remains in the Principal Paying Agent’s distribution account with DTC and/or Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg
after the Issue Date, the Principal Paying Agent will continue to hold such Defaulted Covered Bond pursuant to the order of the
Issuer. The Principal Paying Agent will notify the Issuer immediately of the failure of the Dealer to pay the full purchase price
due from it in respect of any Defaulted Covered Bond and, subsequently, will (a) notify the Issuer immediately on receipt from
the Dealer of the full purchase price in respect of any Defaulted Covered Bond and (b) pay to the Issuer the amount so received.

Global Covered Bond or, in the case of a Permanent Global Covered Bond, all of such Permanent Global Covered Bond for Bearer Definitive

Definitive Covered Bond or vice versa, the relevant Registered Global Covered Bond(s) or Registered Definitive Covered Bond(s)
will be surrendered to the Registrar and endorsed to reflect the reduction or increase (as the case may be) in its/their nominal
amount by the Registrar or on its behalf. The Registrar is hereby authorized on behalf of the Issuer (a) to endorse or to arrange

Article 8

Payments

8.1       The Issuer will, before the Relevant Time on each date on which any payment in respect of any Covered Bond becomes due under
the Terms and Conditions, transfer to an account specified by the Principal Paying Agent such amount in the relevant currency sufficient
for the purposes of the payment in same day funds settled through such payment system as the Principal Paying Agent and the Issuer
may agree.

Relevant Time
means, (i) in the case of payment in Sterling or Euro, 11:00 a.m., London time, (ii) in the case of payments in U.S. dollars or
Canadian dollars, 8:00 a.m. (New York time), (iii) in the case of payments in Japanese Yen, 9:00 a.m. (London time), one Business
Day prior to the day on which payment is due to the Principal Paying Agent and (iv) for any other currency, at the time mutually
agreed between the Issuer and the Principal Paying Agent.

8.2       Any funds paid by or by arrangement with the Issuer to the Principal Paying Agent under Section 8.1 will be held in the
relevant account referred to in Section 8.1 for payment to the Covered Bondholders or Couponholders, as the case may be, until
any Covered Bonds or Coupons become void under Condition 8. In that event the Principal Paying Agent will repay to the Issuer sums
equivalent to the amounts which would otherwise have been repayable on the relevant Covered Bonds or Coupons.

8.3       The Issuer will ensure that no later than the third Business Day (as defined below) immediately preceding the date on which
any payment is to be made to the Principal Paying Agent, under Section 8.1, the Principal Paying Agent, will receive (i) a copy
of an irrevocable payment instruction to the paying bank of the Issuer and (ii) a notice setting out the amounts of principal and/or
(as the case may be) interest to be paid in respect of each relevant series of Covered Bonds on their relevant due dates. For the
purposes of this Article, Business Day means a day on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are
open for general business in London and any Additional Business Centre specified in the applicable Final Terms Document.

8.4       The Principal Paying Agent will notify the other Paying Agents, the Cash Manager, the Guarantor and the Bond Trustee immediately:

		(a)	if it has not by the relevant date set out in Section 8.1 received unconditionally the full amount
in the Specified Currency required for the payment; and

		(b)	if it receives unconditionally the full amount of any sum payable in respect of the Covered Bonds
or Coupons after that date and time.

The Principal Paying Agent
will, at the expense of the Issuer, immediately on receiving any amount as described in subparagraph (b), cause notice of
that receipt to be published in accordance with Condition 13.

    	 

    	- 15 -

    

8.5       The Principal Paying Agent will ensure that payments of both principal and interest in respect of a Temporary Global Covered
Bond will only be made if certification of non-U.S. beneficial ownership as required by U.S. Treasury regulations (in the form
set out in the Trust Deed) has been received from Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg in accordance with the terms of the
Temporary Global Covered Bond.

8.6       Unless it has received notice under Section 8.4(a), each Paying Agent will pay or cause to be paid all amounts due in respect
of the Covered Bonds on behalf of the Issuer and the Guarantor in the manner provided in the Trust Deed and the Terms and Conditions.
If any payment provided for in Section 8.1 is made late but otherwise in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the
relevant Paying Agent will nevertheless make payments in respect of the Covered Bonds as stated in Section 8.4(b) following receipt
by it of such payment.

8.7       If for any reason the Principal Paying Agent reasonably considers that the amounts to be received by it under Section 8.1
will be, or the amounts actually received by it are, insufficient to satisfy all claims in respect of all payments then falling
due in respect of the Covered Bonds, neither the Principal Paying Agent nor the Paying Agents will be obliged to pay any such claims
until the Principal Paying Agent has received the full amount of all such payments.

8.8       Without prejudice to Sections 8.6 and 8.7, if the Principal Paying Agent pays any amounts to the Covered Bondholders or
Couponholders or to any other Paying Agent at a time when it has not received payment in full in respect of the relevant Covered
Bonds in accordance with Section 8.1 (the excess of the amounts so paid over the amounts so received being the “Shortfall”),
the Issuer will, in addition to paying amounts due under Section 8.1, pay to the Principal Paying Agent on demand interest (at
a rate which represents the Principal Paying Agent’s cost of funding the Shortfall provided that evidence of the basis of
such rate is given to the Issuer) on the Shortfall (or the unreimbursed portion thereof) until the receipt in full by the Principal
Paying Agent of the Shortfall.

8.9       The Principal Paying Agent will on demand promptly reimburse each other Paying Agent for payments in respect of Covered
Bonds properly made by each Paying Agent in accordance with this Agreement and the Terms and Conditions unless the Principal Paying
Agent has notified the relevant Paying Agent, prior to its opening of business on the due date of a payment in respect of the Covered
Bonds, that the Principal Paying Agent does not expect to receive sufficient funds to make payment of all amounts falling due in
respect of the Covered Bonds.

8.10     While any Covered Bonds are represented by Global Covered Bonds, all payments due in respect of the Covered Bonds will be
made to, or to the order of, the holder of the Global Covered Bonds and subject to and in accordance with the provisions of the
Global Covered Bonds. On the occasion of each payment, (i) in the case of a CGCB, the Paying Agent to which such Global Covered
Bond was presented for the purpose of making the payment will cause the appropriate Schedule to the relevant Global Covered Bond
to be annotated so as to evidence the amounts and dates of the payments of principal and/or interest as applicable or (ii) in the
case of any Global Covered Bond which is an NGCB, the Principal Paying Agent will instruct Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg
to make appropriate entries in their records to reflect such payment.

8.11     With respect to any Registered Global Covered Bond that is denominated in any currency other than U.S. dollars and that
is registered in the name of DTC or its nominee (a “DTC Covered Bond”), the Principal Paying Agent shall pay
to the Exchange Agent, and the Exchange Agent shall receive, all payments thereunder that are to be exchanged into U.S. dollars.

    	 

    	- 16 -

    

The Exchange Agent
shall, in accordance with normal DTC practice, be advised by the Principal Paying Agent on or prior to the fifth New York Business
Day (as defined below) after the relevant Record Date for any payment of interest, or the tenth New York Business Day prior to
the relevant payment date for any payment of principal by DTC or its nominee:

		(a)	if any Beneficial Owner of the DTC Covered Bond in respect
of which payment is due has elected to receive such payment in U.S. dollars and, if so, the amount of the payment (expressed in
the Specified Currency) which the Beneficial Holder wished to receive in U.S. dollars; and

		(b)	of the payment details for each Beneficial Owner.

The Exchange Agent
shall convert the relevant Specified Currency into U.S. dollars in an amount equal to the aggregate amount that Beneficial Owners
wish to receive in U.S. dollars (i.e. with respect to which DTC has notified the Exchange Agent that Beneficial Owners wish to
receive such amount in U.S. dollars) at its spot rate on the applicable payment date. The Exchange Agent shall, on the relevant
payment date:

		(a)	pay all amounts converted into U.S. dollars in accordance
with the above to DTC or its nominee for distribution to the relevant Beneficial Owners; and

		(b)	pay all the other amounts due which are denominated
otherwise than in U.S. dollars direct to the relevant Beneficial Owners in accordance with the payment instructions received from
DTC or its nominee.

For the purposes of
this Clause, "New York Business Day" means a day (other than a Saturday or a Sunday) on which foreign exchange
markets are open for business in New York City that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are authorised
or required by law or regulation to close in New York City and (i) with respect to Covered Bonds payable in a Specified Currency
other than euro, in the principal financial centre of the relevant Specified Currency or as otherwise specified in the applicable
Final Terms Document and (ii) with respect to Covered Bonds payable in euro, a day on which the TARGET System is open.

In the event that
the Exchange Agent is unable to convert the relevant Specified Currency into U.S. dollars, the Exchange Agent will notify DTC that
the entire payment will be made in the relevant Specified Currency, and the Exchange Agent will make the payment in accordance
with the payment instructions received from DTC following such notification.

8.12     If the amount of principal and/or interest then due for payment is not paid in full (otherwise than by reason of (A) a withholding
or deduction required by law to be made therefrom in circumstances in which the Issuer or Guarantor is not obliged to gross-up
such payments in accordance with Condition 7 or (B) a certification required by the terms of a Covered Bond not being received),
(i) in the case of CGCB, the Paying Agent to which a Covered Bond or Coupon (as the case may be) is presented for the purpose of
making such payment will make a record of such shortfall on the Covered Bond or Coupon and each record will, in the absence of
manifest error, be prima facie evidence that the payment in question has not to that extent been made or (ii) in the case
of any Global Covered Bond which is an NCGB, the Principal Paying Agent will instruct Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg to
make appropriate entries in their records to reflect such shortfall in payment.

    	 

    	- 17 -

    

8.13     Following service of a Notice to Pay on the Guarantor, this Article 8 will be amended as follows:

		(a)	Section 8.1 (above) will be deleted in its entirety
and replaced with the following:

“8.1       The Guarantor will,
before the Relevant Time on each date on which any payment in respect of any Guaranteed Amounts becomes Due for Payment, transfer
to an account specified by the Principal Paying Agent, such amount in the relevant currency sufficient for the purposes of the
payment of such Guaranteed Amounts in same day funds settled through such payment system as the Principal Paying Agent and the
Guarantor may agree.”;

		(b)	Section 8.3(above) will be deleted in its entirety and
replaced with the following:

“8.3       The Guarantor will ensure
that no later than the third Business Day (as defined below) immediately preceding the date on which any payment is to be made
to the Principal Paying Agent, under Section 8.1, the Principal Paying Agent will receive (i) a copy of an irrevocable payment
instruction to the paying bank of the Guarantor or other relevant party, and (ii) a notice setting out the amounts of principal
and/or (as the case may be) interest to be paid in respect of each relevant series of Covered Bonds on their relevant due dates.
For the purposes of this Section, Business Day means a day on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments
and are open for general business in London, Toronto and any Additional Business Centre specified in the applicable Final Terms
Document.”; and

		(c)	Consequential amendments will be made pursuant to Article 34
(Amendments) to the remainder of Article 8.

8.14     If the Issuer determines, in its sole discretion, that it will be required to withhold or deduct any FATCA Withholding in
connection with the next scheduled payment, the Issuer will be entitled to re-direct or reorganize such payment in any way that
it sees fit in order that the payment may be made free from FATCA Withholding.

Article 9

Determinations and notifications in respect of Covered Bonds

and interest determination

	9.1	(a)	The Principal Paying Agent will, unless otherwise
specified in the applicable Final Terms Document, make all the determinations and calculations which it is required to make under
the Terms and Conditions, all subject to and in accordance with the Terms and Conditions.

		(b)	The Principal Paying Agent will not be responsible to the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Bond Trustee
or to any third party (except in the event of dishonesty, bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard
of the Principal Paying Agent, as the case may be) as a result of the Principal Paying Agent

    	 

    	- 18 -

    

having acted on any quotation given
by any Reference Bank which subsequently may be found to be incorrect.

		(c)	The Principal Paying Agent will promptly notify (and
confirm in writing to) the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Bond Trustee, the Registrar and the other Agents and (in respect of a Series
of Covered Bonds listed on a stock exchange) the relevant stock exchange or other relevant competent authority or quotation system
on which the relevant Covered Bonds are for the time being listed, posted and/or traded and to be published in accordance with
Condition 13 as soon as possible after the determination of each Rate of Interest, Interest Amount and Interest Payment Date and
all other amounts, rates and dates which it is obliged to determine or calculate under the Terms and Conditions and in no event
later than the fourth Business Day thereafter. Each Interest Amount and Interest Payment Date so notified may subsequently be
amended (or appropriate alternative arrangements made by way of adjustment) without notice in the event of an extension or shortening
of the Interest Period. Any such amendment or alternative arrangements will be promptly notified to the Bond Trustee, the Registrar,
the other Agents and each stock exchange or other relevant authority on which the relevant Floating Rate Covered Bonds are for
the time being listed, quoted and/or traded or by which they have been admitted to listing or trading and to Covered Bondholders
in accordance with Condition 13.

		(d)	The Principal Paying Agent will use its reasonable endeavours
to cause each Rate of Interest, Interest Amount and Interest Payment Date and all other amounts, rates and dates which it is obliged
to determine or calculate under the Terms and Conditions to be published as required in accordance with the Terms and Conditions
as soon as possible after their determination or calculation.

		(e)	If for any reason at any relevant time after the Principal
Paying Agent defaults in its obligation to determine the Rate of Interest or the Principal Paying Agent defaults in its obligation
to calculate any Interest Amount and/or publish the Rate of Interest, Interest Amount and/or Interest Payment Date in respect
of any Interest Period or any other amount, rate or date as provided in this Article, it will immediately notify the Issuer, the
Guarantor, the Bond Trustee and the other Paying Agents of that fact. If, for any reason, the Principal Paying Agent does not
at any time calculate an interest amount as described in Section 9.1(a), the Bond Trustee will, in accordance with Condition 4.2(f),
determine the Rate of Interest. Each such determination or calculation will be deemed to have been made by the Principal Paying
Agent.

		(f)	Determinations with regard to Covered Bonds (including
Floating Rate Covered Bonds) required to be made by a Calculation Agent specified in the applicable Final Terms Document will
be made in the manner so specified. Unless otherwise agreed between the Issuer and the relevant Dealer or the Lead Manager(s),
as the case may be, or unless the Principal Paying Agent is the Calculation Agent (in which case the provisions of this Agreement
will apply), those determinations will be made on the basis of a Calculation Agency Agreement substantially in the form of Schedule
1. Covered Bonds of any Series may specify additional duties and obligations of any Agent, the performance of which will be agreed
between the Issuer and the relevant Agent prior to the relevant Issue Date.

9.2       Where Screen Rate Determination is specified in the applicable Final Terms Document as the manner in which the Rate of
Interest is to be determined, the Rate of Interest for each Interest Period will be determined as set out in Condition 4.2(b)(ii).

deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges as specifically contemplated under the
Terms and Conditions, the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, will give notice of that fact to the Bond Trustee and the
Principal Paying Agent (who will give notice thereof to each Paying Agent) as soon as it becomes aware of the requirement to make
the withholding or deduction and will give to the Bond Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent such information as either of them
will require to enable the Bond Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent to comply with the requirement.

Bonds, required by law to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of any Taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges

holder failing to satisfy any certification or other requirement in respect of its Covered Bonds, it will give notice of that fact
to the Issuer, the Bond Trustee, the Guarantor and the Principal Paying Agent as soon as it becomes aware of the requirement to
withhold or deduct.

Talons and of the replacement Coupons or Talons issued.

Article 25

Communications between the parties

25.1     A copy of all communications relating to the subject matter of this Agreement between the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Bond
Trustee and any Agent (other than the Principal Paying Agent) will be sent to the Principal Paying Agent.

Article 26

Changes in Agents

26.1     Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor agrees, for the benefit of the Bond Trustee, that, for so long as any Covered Bond
is outstanding, or until funds for the payment of all amounts in respect of all outstanding Covered Bonds have been made available
to the Principal Paying Agent and have been returned to the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, as provided in this Agreement:

		(a)	there will at all times be a Principal Paying Agent
and a Registrar;

		(b)	it will so long as any Covered Bond is outstanding,
maintain a Paying Agent (which may be the Principal Paying Agent) having a specified office in a city approved by the Bond Trustee
in Europe;

		(c)	so long as any Covered Bond is listed on any stock exchange
or admitted to listing or trading by any other relevant authority, there will at all times be a Paying Agent (in the case of Bearer
Covered Bonds) and a Transfer Agent (in the case of Registered Covered Bonds) with a specified office in such place as may be
required by the rules and regulations of the relevant stock exchange or, as the case may be, other relevant authority;

		(d)	so long as any of the Registered Global Covered Bonds
payable in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars are held through DTC or its nominee, there will at all times be an Exchange
Agent; and

		(e)	it will ensure that it maintains a Paying Agent in a
Member State of the European Union that will not be obliged to withhold or deduct tax pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC
on the taxation of savings income or any other directive implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council Meeting of 26 to 27
November 2000 or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to any such directive, provided that
the Issuer will not, under any circumstances, be obliged to maintain a Paying Agent with a specified office in such Member State
unless at least one European Member State does not require a Paying Agent making payments through a specified office in that Member
State to so withhold or deduct tax.

    	 

    	- 32 -

    

In addition, the Issuer and
the Guarantor will forthwith appoint a Paying Agent having a specified office in the United States in the circumstances described
in Condition 5.5. Any variation, termination, appointment or change will only take effect (other than in the case of insolvency
(as provided in Section 26.5), when it will be of immediate effect) after not less than 30 nor more than 45 days’ prior notice
will have been given to the Covered Bondholders in accordance with Condition 13.

26.2     Each of the Principal Paying Agent and the Registrar may (subject as provided in Sections 26.1 and 26.4) at any time resign
by giving at least 60 days’ written notice to the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Bond Trustee specifying the date on which
its resignation will become effective.

26.3     Each of the Principal Paying Agent and the Registrar may (subject as provided in Sections 26.1 and 26.4) be removed at any
time by the Issuer and the Guarantor with the prior written approval of the Bond Trustee, which approval will not be unreasonably
withheld, on at least 45 days’ notice in writing from the Issuer and the Guarantor specifying the date when the removal will
become effective.

26.4     Any resignation under Section 26.2 or removal under Sections 26.3 or 26.5 of the Principal Paying Agent or the Registrar
will only take effect upon the appointment by the Issuer and the Guarantor of a successor Principal Paying Agent or successor Registrar,
as the case may be, approved in writing by the Bond Trustee, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, and (other than
in cases of insolvency of the Principal Paying Agent or the Registrar, as the case may be) on the expiry of the notice to be given
under Article 29 (Notification of Changes to Agents). The Issuer and each of the Guarantor agree with the Principal Paying
Agent and the Registrar that if, by the day falling 10 days before the expiry of any notice under Section 26.2, the Issuer
and the Guarantor have not appointed a successor Principal Paying Agent or Registrar, as the case may be, approved in writing by
the Bond Trustee, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, then the Principal Paying Agent or the Registrar, as the case
may be, will be entitled, on behalf of the Issuer and the Guarantor, to appoint in its place as a successor Principal Paying Agent
or Registrar, as the case may be, a reputable financial institution of good standing which the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Bond
Trustee will approve.

26.5     In case at any time any Agent resigns, or is removed, or becomes incapable of acting or is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent,
or files a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or consents to the appointment
of an administrator, liquidator or administrative or other receiver of all or a substantial part of its property, or admits in
writing its inability to pay or meet its debts as they mature or suspends payment of its debts, or if any order of any court is
entered approving any petition filed by or against it under the provisions of any applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law or if
a receiver of it or of all or a substantial part of its property is appointed or if any officer takes charge or control of it or
of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, a successor Agent which will be a reputable
financial institution of good standing may be appointed by the Issuer and the Guarantor with the prior written approval of the
Bond Trustee. Upon the appointment of a successor Agent and acceptance by it of its appointment and (other than in case of insolvency
of the Agent or when the Paying Agent is an FFI and does not become, or ceases to be, a Participating FFI, when it will be of immediate
effect) upon expiry of the notice to be given under Article 29 (Notification of Changes to Agents), the Agent so superseded
will cease to be an Agent under this Agreement.

    	 

    	- 33 -

    

26.6     Subject to Section 26.1, the Issuer and the Guarantor may, with the prior written approval of the Bond Trustee, which approval
will not be unreasonably withheld, terminate the appointment of all or any of the Agents (other than the Principal Paying Agent
and the Registrar) at any time and/or appoint one or more further or other Agents by giving to the Principal Paying Agent and to
the relevant other Agent notice in writing to that effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guarantor may revoke the appointment
of any Agent in the event such Agent defaults in the performance or observance of its covenants or breaches its representations
and warranties made, respectively, under Section 2.10.

26.7     Subject to Sections 26.1 and 26.4, all or any of the Agents (other than the Principal Paying Agent and the Registrar) may
resign their respective appointments under this Agreement at any time by giving the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Bond Trustee and
the Principal Paying Agent at least 60 days’ written notice to that effect.

26.8     Upon its resignation or removal becoming effective, an Agent will:

		(a)	in the case of the Principal Paying Agent, any other
Paying Agent and the Registrar, immediately transfer all funds and records held by it under this Agreement to the successor Agent;
and

		(b)	be entitled to the payment by the Issuer (and, following
service of a Notice to Pay on the Guarantor, the Guarantor) of the commissions, fees and expenses payable in respect of its services
under this Agreement before termination in accordance with the terms of Article 21 (Commissions and Expenses).

26.9     Upon its appointment becoming effective, a successor or new Agent will, without any further action, become vested with all
the authority, rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor or, as the case may be, an Agent with the same effect
as if originally named as an Agent under this Agreement.

26.10   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the unsecured, unsubordinated and unguaranteed debt obligations
of a Paying Agent cease to be rated by the Rating Agencies at or above the Paying Agent Required Ratings at any time that (a) the
Guarantor is Independently Controlled and Governed, may, and (b) the Guarantor is not Independently Controlled and Governed, shall,
terminate the appointment of such Paying Agent and appoint one or more further or other Agents by giving to the Principal Paying
Agent and to the relevant other Agent notice in writing to that effect.

26.11   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if an Issuer Event of Default (A) occurs and is continuing,
or (B) has previously occurred and is continuing, at any time that the Guarantor is Independently Controlled and Governed, the
Guarantor may terminate the appointment of an Agent which is the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer and appoint one or more further
or other Agents by giving to the Principal Paying Agent and to the relevant other Agent notice in writing to that effect.

26.12   Upon any termination or resignation of an Agent hereunder, the Guarantor shall provide notice to CMHC of such termination
or resignation and of such Agent’s replacement contemporaneously with the earlier of (i) notice of such termination or resignation
and replacement to a Rating Agency, (ii) notice of such termination or resignation and replacement being provided to or otherwise
made available to Covered Bondholders, and (iii) five (5) Toronto Business Days following such termination or resignation and replacement
(unless the

    	 

    	- 34 -

    

replacement Agent has yet to be identified
at that time, in which case notice of the replacement Agent may be provided no later than ten (10) Toronto Business Days thereafter).
Any such notice shall include (if known) the reasons for the termination or resignation of the Agent, and all information relating
to the replacement Agent required by the CMHC Guide to be provided to CMHC in relation to the Agent and this Agreement, including
any new agreement with such replacement Agent or any amendments to this Agreement in respect of such replacement Agent.

PURPOSE and nature of the intercompany loan

		3.1	Application of Advances by Guarantor

		(a)	The initial Advance hereunder may only be used to purchase the Initial
Portfolio consisting of Loans and their Related Security from the relevant Seller(s) in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage
Sale Agreement.

		(b)	Each Advance other than the initial Advance may only be used by the
Guarantor:

		(i)	to purchase Additional Loans and their Related Security from the
relevant Sellers pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Sale Agreement;

		(ii)	to make Additional Loan Advances; 

		(iii)	to invest in Substitute Assets (in an amount up to but not exceeding
the limit set forth in Section 9.7 of the Guarantor Agreement);

		(iv)	to make a deposit of the proceeds in the GDA Account (or, as applicable,
the Standby GDA Account) (including, without limitation, to fund the Reserve Fund to an amount not exceeding the limit prescribed
in Section 6.1 of the Guarantor Agreement); 

		(v)	subject to written confirmation from the Cash Manager that the Asset
Coverage Test is met on the relevant repayment date, in the case of a repayment to be made on a Calculation Date, or on a Calculation
Date immediately prior to the relevant Guarantor Payment Date, in the case of a repayment to be made on a Guarantor Payment Date
(both before and immediately following the making of the relevant repayment), to make a Capital Distribution to any Seller (in
its capacity as a Partner) by way of a distribution of that Partner’s equity in the Guarantor in an amount equal to the Advance
or any part thereof, which will be paid to the Partner on the relevant next Payment Date by wire transfer or as otherwise directed
by the Partner; and/or

		(vi)	to fund the Pre-Maturity Liquidity Ledger.

		3.2	Guarantee Loan and Demand Loan

The aggregate principal
amount of Advances outstanding at any time will be recorded in the Intercompany Loan Ledger in accordance with Section 5.4 (Intercompany
Loan Ledger) and deemed to be comprised of:

		(a)	a guarantee loan (the “Guarantee Loan”) having
a principal balance equal to:

(X/Y) multiplied by Z

where,

    	 

    	-4-

    

X = the ACT Asset Value (see Schedule
2 for reference) at such time, but where “A” in the calculation of such amount is equal to the aggregate Outstanding
Principal Balance of the Loans in the Portfolio for the purposes of determining X;

Y = the maximum Canadian Dollar
Equivalent of aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of Covered Bonds that could be issued by the Issuer without contravening the
Asset Coverage Test at such time based on the assets of the Guarantor at such time; and

Z = the actual Canadian Dollar Equivalent
of aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the Covered Bonds at such time,

and

		(b)	a demand loan (the “Demand Loan”) will be a revolving
credit facility, the outstanding balance of which will be equal to the difference between the balance of the Intercompany Loan
and the balance of the Guarantee Loan at any relevant time as determined above. 

The respective balances of the Guarantee
Loan and the Demand Loan will fluctuate with the issuances and redemptions of Covered Bonds and the requirements of the Asset Coverage
Test, provided that at any time and for so long as the Asset Coverage Test is not satisfied, the Demand Loan cannot have a positive
balance.

		3.3	Revolving Intercompany Loan

Any amount under
the Intercompany Loan repaid hereunder may be re-borrowed provided that: (i) such re-borrowing is for the purposes set out in Section
3.1(b), and (ii) each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.1 have been satisfied. Unless otherwise agreed by the Intercompany
Loan Provider and subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, no further Advances will be made to the Guarantor under
the Intercompany Loan following the occurrence of a Demand Loan Repayment Event.

		3.4	No Obligation to Monitor

Without prejudice
to the obligations of the Guarantor under this Article 3, neither the Bond Trustee nor any of the other Secured Creditors will
be obliged to concern themselves as to the application of amounts drawn by the Guarantor under this Agreement.

Article
4

CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

		4.1	Conditions Precedent

Save as the Intercompany
Loan Provider and the Bond Trustee may otherwise agree, each Advance will not be available for utilisation on the date of the proposed
Advance unless:

    	 

    	-5-

    

		(a)	such Advance does not result in the Guarantor being unable to satisfy
the Asset Coverage Test on a pro forma basis following such Advance and the application of the proceeds thereof; 

		(b)	the aggregate outstanding amount of Advances after giving effect
to such Advance does not exceed the Total Credit Commitment; and

		(c)	no Issuer Event of Default, Guarantor Event of Default or Demand
Loan Repayment Event has occurred.

Article

ADVANCES

		5.1	Giving of Advance Requests

Not later than 10:00
a.m. (Toronto Time) on each Drawdown Date (or such later time as may be agreed in writing between the Guarantor and the Intercompany
Loan Provider), the Guarantor will give to the Intercompany Loan Provider a duly completed request for Advance in writing (each
an “Advance Request”) completed in the form attached hereto as Schedule 1 specifying whether such request is
for an Advance pursuant to the Guarantee Loan or the Demand Loan. Each Advance Request is irrevocable and (subject to the terms
of this Agreement) obliges the Guarantor to borrow the whole amount specified in the Advance Request on the relevant Drawdown Date
upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement.

		5.2	Advances

On receipt of an
Advance Request from the Guarantor and if the conditions set out in Article 4 (Conditions Precedent) have been met, the Intercompany
Loan Provider will make the requested Advances available to the Guarantor on the Drawdown Date.

		5.3	Single Drawing of Advances

Each Advance will,
subject to satisfaction of the matters specified in Article 4 (Conditions Precedent), only be available for drawing in one amount
by the Guarantor on the relevant Drawdown Date.

		5.4	Intercompany Loan Ledger

The Cash Manager
will ensure that each Advance, each repayment, all payments of interest and repayments of principal of each Advance hereunder and
the amount of the Guarantee Loan and Demand Loan at each Calculation Date are recorded in the Intercompany Loan Ledger at the appropriate
time (which in the case of the amount of the Guarantee Loan and the Demand Loan will be at least two Toronto Business Days prior
to the Guarantor Payment Date following such Calculation Date).

    	 

    	-6-

    

Article

INTEREST AND FEE

		6.1	Interest Periods

		(a)	Each loan interest period (each a “Loan Interest Period”)
will correspond to each Calculation Period and each date on which interest is payable hereunder (each a “Loan Interest
Payment Date”) will correspond to each Guarantor Payment Date, provided that the Loan Interest Period for any Advance
made during a Calculation Period will commence on the date of such Advance.

		(b)	Whenever it is necessary to compute an amount of interest in respect
of an Advance for any period (including any Loan Interest Period), such interest will be calculated on the basis of actual days
elapsed in a 365 day year.

		(c)	Interest payable in respect of an Advance will be payable in respect
of the preceding Loan Interest Period for such Advance on each Loan Interest Payment Date following the Drawdown Date of that Advance
and will be paid on such Loan Interest Payment Date subject to the applicable Priorities of Payments.

		(d)	All payments of principal and interest hereunder on account of the
Intercompany Loan will be made in accordance with the applicable Priorities of Payments.

		(e)	Interest that is payable in respect of a Loan Interest Period for
an Advance that is not paid on a Loan Interest Payment Date will remain outstanding and will bear interest at the same rate as
that payable on such Advance.

		6.2	Interest Rate

		(a)	The rate of interest payable in respect of each Advance for each
Loan Interest Period in respect of that Advance will be the rate per annum notified in writing by the Intercompany Loan Provider
to the Guarantor from time to time. 

		(b)	With respect to each Loan Interest Period, the Intercompany Loan
Provider will, as soon as practicable following the relevant Loan Interest Period, determine and notify the Cash Manager, the Guarantor
and the Bond Trustee of the amount (the “Intercompany Loan Interest Amount”), in each case, payable in respect
of such Loan Interest Period. The Intercompany Loan Interest Amount in respect of each Advance will be determined by applying
the applicable rate of interest (determined in accordance with Section 6.2(a)) to the outstanding principal balance of the relevant
Advance, multiplying the result of that calculation by the actual number of days in the applicable Loan Interest Period divided
by 365 days and rounding the resultant figure to the nearest penny (half a penny being rounded upwards) provided that, other than
from the date hereof until the first issuance of Covered Bonds, the amount of interest hereunder payable in respect of any Loan
Interest Period will not exceed (i) prior to the Interest Rate Swap Effective Date, the yield on the Portfolio, and (ii) on and
after the Interest Rate Swap Effective Date, the floating amounts received by the Guarantor pursuant to the Interest Rate Swap
Agreement, less in either case the sum 

    	 

    	-7-

    

of (i) a minimum spread to be notified in writing by the Intercompany Loan Provider to the
Guarantor from time to time, and (ii) an amount equal to the amount of the Guarantor Expenses for the corresponding Guarantor Calculation
Period. 

		(c)	All notifications, opinions, determinations, certificates, calculations,
quotations and decisions given, expressed, made or obtained for the purposes of this Article 6, will (in the absence of wilful
default, bad faith or proven error) be binding on the Guarantor and the Cash Manager and (in such absence as aforesaid) no liability
to the Guarantor will attach to the Cash Manager or the Intercompany Loan Provider in connection with the exercise or non-exercise
by them or any of them of their powers, duties and discretions hereunder.

		(d)	Solely for the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), whenever
the amount of interest payable hereunder in respect of any Loan Interest Period is not the amount obtained by applying the applicable
rate of interest to the outstanding principal balance of the relevant Advance and multiplying the result of that calculation by
the actual number of days in the applicable Loan Interest Period divided by 365 days, the annual rate of interest payable hereunder
in respect of such Loan Interest Period is equivalent to the product obtained when: (i) the amount of interest payable hereunder
in respect of such Loan Interest Period is divided by the sum of the daily average aggregate amount of Advances outstanding hereunder
and the result of such division is multiplied by (ii) 365 divided by the number of calendar days in such Loan Interest Period.

		6.3	Criminal Rate of Interest

In no event
will the aggregate “interest” (as defined in Section 347 (the “Criminal Code Section”) of the
Criminal Code (Canada)), payable to the Intercompany Loan Provider under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document
exceed the effective annual rate of interest lawfully permitted under the Criminal Code Section on the “credit
advanced” (as defined in such section) under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. Further, if any payment,
collection or demand pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in respect of such “interest”
is determined to be contrary to the provisions of the Criminal Code Section, such payment, collection, or demand will be
deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of the Intercompany Loan Provider and the Guarantor and such
“interest” will be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of
interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by the Criminal Code Section so result in a receipt by the
Intercompany Loan Provider of interest at a rate not in contravention of the Criminal Code Section, such adjustment to be
effected, to the extent necessary, as follows:

		(a)	firstly, by reducing the amounts or rates of interest required to
be paid to the Intercompany Loan Provider; and

		(b)	then, by reducing any fees, charges, expenses and other amounts required
to be paid to the Intercompany Loan Provider which would constitute “interest”.

    	 

    	-8-

    

Notwithstanding
the above, and after giving effect to all such adjustments, if the Intercompany Loan Provider will have received an amount in excess
of the maximum permitted by the Criminal Code Section, then the Guarantor will be entitled, by notice in writing to the Intercompany
Loan Provider, to obtain reimbursement from the Intercompany Loan Provider in an amount equal to such excess. For greater certainty,
to the extent that any charges, fees or expenses are held to be within such meaning of “interest”, such amounts will
be pro-rated over (i) the period of time to which they relate or (ii) otherwise over the period from the initial Drawdown Date
to the date on which all of the Covered Bonds are irrevocably repaid.

Article

REPAYMENT

		7.1	Repayment of Demand Loan

Subject to the applicable
Priorities of Payments and Section 7.2, the principal amount of the Demand Loan (or any portion thereof for which demand is made
by the Intercompany Loan Provider in accordance with this Section) will be due and payable by the Guarantor on a Toronto Business
Day no later than 60 days after the demand is made therefor by the Intercompany Loan Provider by notice in writing to the Guarantor
unless on such day:

		(a)	(i) a Demand Loan Repayment Event (as hereinafter defined) has occurred
and is continuing (in which case payment will be made in accordance with Section 7.2); or (ii) the Asset Coverage Test as calculated
by the Cash Manager, will not be satisfied after giving effect to such repayment and after taking into account all other amounts
to be paid as provided for pursuant to the applicable Priorities of Payments on the next following Guarantor Payment Date (including
for the avoidance of doubt amounts required to be credited to the Pre-Maturity Liquidity Ledger); in which case only the amount,
if any, which could be repaid while remaining in compliance with the Asset Coverage Test will be due and payable on such day; or

		(b)	an Asset Coverage Test Breach Notice has been given on or prior to
such day and has not been revoked.

		7.2	Mandatory Repayment Upon Demand Loan Repayment Event

		(a)	Subject to Section 7.2(b) below, and subject to the applicable Priorities
of Payments, the Guarantor will repay the amount, if any, by which the Demand Loan exceeds the Demand Loan Contingent Amount, but
not more than such amount, on the first Guarantor Payment Date following 60 days after the earlier of the date on which:

		(i)	the Intercompany Loan Provider, in its capacity as the Interest Rate
Swap Provider, is required to assign the Interest Rate Swap Agreement to a third party; 

		(ii)	a Notice to Pay has been served on the Guarantor; 

    	 

    	-9-

    

		(iii)	to the extent Fitch is a Rating Agency, if the issuer default rating
of the Intercompany Loan Provider assigned by Fitch is less than the Fitch Demand Loan Repayment Ratings; or

		(iv)	termination of the Intercompany Loan Agreement or the non-renewal
of the revolving commitment thereunder

(each of (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv)
above a “Demand Loan Repayment Event”).

		(b)	Subject to the applicable Priorities of Payments, following a Demand
Loan Repayment Event, the Guarantor will repay the full amount of the then outstanding Demand Loan on the date on which the Asset
Percentage is next calculated (whether or not such calculation is a scheduled calculation or a calculation made at the request
of Scotiabank) provided that the Asset Coverage Test, as calculated by the Cash Manager, is met on the date of repayment after
giving effect to such repayment. For greater certainty, following an Issuer Event of Default, the Asset Coverage Test will be conducted
and the Asset Percentage calculated, solely for the purpose of determining the amount of the Demand Loan repayable on the relevant
repayment date and that the Asset Coverage Test will be met after giving effect to any such repayment. In calculating the Asset
Coverage Test following an Issuer Event of Default for such purpose, the amount of any Excess Proceeds deposited by the Bond Trustee
into the GDA Account (or, as applicable, the Standby GDA Account) will be deducted from the ACT Asset Value.

		7.3	Source of Funds for Repayments

The Guarantor will
repay the Demand Loan in accordance with the applicable Priority of Payments and the terms of this Agreement, using: (i) funds
being held for the account of the Guarantor by its service providers and/or funds in the Guarantor Accounts; and/or (ii) proceeds
from the sale of Substitute Assets; and/or (iii) proceeds from the sale of Selected Loans subject to any right of pre-emption on
the part of the Sellers pursuant to Section 11.1 (Sale of Selected Loans Following Service of an Asset Coverage Test Breach Notice)
in the Mortgage Sale Agreement.

		7.4	Payments under Covered Bond Guarantee Discharge Obligations of Guarantor under this Agreement

To the extent
that the Guarantor makes, or there is made on its behalf, a payment under the Covered Bond Guarantee, the Intercompany Loan
Provider will on such payment being made become indebted to the Guarantor for an amount equal to such payment. Any amounts
owing by the Intercompany Loan Provider to the Guarantor in respect of amounts paid by the Guarantor under the terms of the
Covered Bond Guarantee or the repurchase of Covered Bonds, as applicable, will be set-off automatically (and without any
action being required by the Guarantor, the Intercompany Loan Provider or the Bond Trustee) against any amounts repayable by
the Guarantor under the terms of this Agreement. The amount set-off will be the Canadian Dollar Equivalent of the relevant
payment made by the Guarantor under the Covered Bond Guarantee or the Principal Amount Outstanding of any Covered Bonds
purchased and cancelled by the Guarantor in accordance with Conditions 6.8

    	 

    	-10-

    

and 6.9, as applicable, which amount will be
applied to reduce amounts repayable under the Intercompany Loan in the following order of priority:

		(a)	first, to reduce and discharge interest (including accrued interest)
due and unpaid on the outstanding principal balance of the Advances; and

		(b)	second, to reduce and discharge the outstanding principal balance
of the Advances.

		7.5	Repayment of Guarantee Loan

The Guarantee
Loan will be repaid in accordance with the applicable Priorities of Payments and is subordinated to the Demand Loan and the
Covered Bond Guarantee in accordance with such Priorities of Payments. Such repayment will be made (a) using (i) funds being
held for the account of the Guarantor by its service providers and/or funds in the Guarantor Accounts (other than any amount
in the Pre-Maturity Liquidity Ledger); and/or, (ii) proceeds from the sale of Substitution Assets; and/or (iii) proceeds from
the sale, pursuant to the Guarantor Agreement, of Loans and their Related Security to the Seller or to another person subject
to a right of pre-emption on the part of the Seller, and/or (b) by selling, transferring or assigning to the Seller all of
the Guarantors right, title and interest in and to the Loans and their Related Security forming part of the Portfolio in
satisfaction in full of the Guarantee Loan.

Article
8

TAXES

		8.1	No Gross Up

All payments by
the Guarantor under this Agreement will be made without any deduction or withholding for or on account of, and free and clear of,
any Taxes, except to the extent that the Guarantor is required by law to make payment subject to any Taxes. The Guarantor will
have no obligation to gross-up any payment to the Intercompany Loan Provider under this Agreement in respect of which any such
deduction or withholding applies.

		8.2	Not a Non-Resident

The Guarantor represents
and warrants to the Intercompany Loan Provider that it is, and covenants that it will at all times remain, a Person that is not
a Non-Resident.

    	 

    	-11-

    

		8.3	Tax Receipts

All Taxes required
by law to be deducted or withheld by the Guarantor from any amounts paid or payable under this Agreement will be paid, to the relevant
taxation authority, by the Guarantor when due and the Guarantor will, within 90 days of the payment being made, deliver to the
Intercompany Loan Provider evidence satisfactory to the Intercompany Loan Provider (including all relevant Tax receipts) that the
payment has been duly remitted to the appropriate taxation authority.

Article
9

ILLEGALITY

		9.1	Illegality

If, at any time,
it is unlawful for the Intercompany Loan Provider to make, fund or allow to remain outstanding an Advance made or to be made by
it under this Agreement, then the Intercompany Loan Provider will, promptly after becoming aware of the same, deliver to the Guarantor,
the Bond Trustee and (for information only and on the basis that they may not rely thereon) the Rating Agencies a legal opinion
to that effect from reputable counsel and the Intercompany Loan Provider may require the Guarantor to prepay, on any Guarantor
Payment Date, having given not more than 60 days' and not less than 30 days' (or such shorter period as may be required by any
relevant law) prior written notice to the Guarantor and the Bond Trustee, and while the relevant circumstances continue, the applicable
Advance(s) without penalty or premium but subject to Section 17 (Exercise of Certain Rights) of the Security Agreement and Article
10 (Mitigation) of this Agreement.

Article
10

MITIGATION

		10.1	Mitigation

If circumstances
arise in respect of the Intercompany Loan Provider which would, or would upon the giving of notice, result in:

		(a)	the prepayment of the Advances pursuant to Article 9 (Illegality);

		(b)	a withholding or deduction from the amount to be paid by the Guarantor
on account of Taxes, pursuant to Article 8 (Taxes),

then, without in
any way limiting, reducing or otherwise qualifying the obligations of the Guarantor under this Agreement, the Intercompany Loan
Provider will:

		(i)	promptly upon becoming aware of the circumstances, notify the Bond
Trustee, the Guarantor and the Rating Agencies; and

    	 

    	-12-

    

		(ii)	upon written request from the Guarantor, take such steps as may be
practical to mitigate the effects of those circumstances including (without limitation) the transfer or assignment of all its rights
under this Agreement to, and assumption of all its obligations under this Agreement by, another Person reasonably satisfactory
to the Bond Trustee, which is willing to participate in the relevant Advances in its place and which is not subject to (a) or (b)
above,

provided that no such transfer or assignment
and assumption may be permitted unless the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied in respect of such transfer or assignment
as a result and the Intercompany Loan Provider indemnifies (subject to Section 17 (Exercise of Certain Rights) of the Security
Agreement) the Guarantor and the Bond Trustee for any reasonable costs and expenses properly incurred by them as a result of such
transfer or assignment and assumption.

Article
11

PAYMENTS

		11.1	Payment

		(a)	Subject to the applicable Priorities of Payments, all amounts to
be paid to the Intercompany Loan Provider under this Agreement will be paid for value by the Guarantor to such account as is notified
to the Guarantor by the Intercompany Loan Provider for this purpose by not less than five Toronto Business Days prior notice on
each Guarantor Payment Date.

		(b)	Subject to the applicable Priorities of Payment, the Guarantor may elect,
at its sole discretion, to repay the Demand Loan (or any portion thereof) pursuant to Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 in the following
manner:

		(i)	in Canadian dollars for value by the Guarantor, provided that any amount
paid in Canadian dollars pursuant to this clause (i) shall not have been derived from the sale of any Loan and its Related Security
by the Guarantor for less than the True Loan Balance of such Loan at the time of such sale; or

		(ii)	by selling, transferring and assigning to the Issuer all of the Guarantor’s
right, title and interest in and to Loans and their Related Security and any Collections related to such Loans from and after the
date of the Payment in Kind Notice in accordance with Section 11.1(c) and for the consideration of a reduction in the amount outstanding
under the Demand Loan in accordance with Section 11.1(d) (a “Payment in Kind”); provided that any Loans and
their Related Security applied towards a Payment in Kind will be selected in a manner that would not reasonably be expected to
adversely affect the interests of the Covered Bondholders.

		(c)	If the Guarantor elects to make a Payment in Kind, the Guarantor will
provide the Issuer with a notice (a “Payment in Kind Notice”), at least 5 Toronto Business

    	 

    	-13-

    

Days and not more than 30 days in advance
of the proposed date of such Payment in Kind (the “Payment in Kind Date”), setting out the following:

		(i)	the Payment in Kind Date;

		(ii)	the aggregate amount of the Demand Loan to be repaid as determined in
accordance with Section 11.1(d); and

		(iii)	a listing of the Loans to be sold, transferred and assigned to the Issuer
on the Payment in Kind Date, including:

		(1)	for each such Loan, the Eligible Loan Details; 

		(2)	the aggregate number of Loans identified in the Payment in Kind Notice;
and

		(3)	the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of such Loans as of the
date of the Payment in Kind Notice.

		(d)	Upon any Payment in Kind, the outstanding amount of the Demand Loan will be reduced by the Fair Market
Value of such Loans determined as of the Payment in Kind Date, less an amount equal to the Collections received by or on behalf
of the Guarantor after the date of the Payment in Kind Notice and prior to the Payment in
Kind Date in respect of the Loans listed in the Payment in Kind Notice. In addition, if the Payment in Kind occurs on or after
a Covered Bond Guarantee Activation Event and the Intercompany Loan Provider is the Limited Partner, the Limited Partner shall
be deemed to have made a Capital Contribution to the Guarantor on the Payment in Kind Date in an amount equal to the excess, if
any, of the True Loan Balance of the Loans and their Related Security applied towards the Payment in Kind over the aggregate Fair
Market Value of such Loans and their Related Security, and such Capital Contribution shall be deemed to have been applied by the
Guarantor against the Demand Loan, such that the outstanding amount of the Demand Loan will be reduced by the greater of (i) the
True Loan Balance of such Loans, and (ii) the Fair Market Value of such Loans.

		(e)	If upon a Payment in Kind, the outstanding amount of the Demand Loan
is reduced in accordance with Section 11.1(d), then upon such Payment in Kind (and notwithstanding the terms of the Interest Rate
Swap Agreement):

		(i)	if the Interest Rate Swap Provider is the Issuer or an Affiliate of
the Issuer, no termination payment will be payable in respect of such sale of Loans; and

		(ii)	if the Interest Rate Swap Provider is not the Issuer or an Affiliate
of the Issuer, (A) the termination payment, if any, payable by the Guarantor to the Interest Rate Swap Provider in respect of such

Guarantor in respect of such sale
of Loans will be paid by the Interest Rate Swap Provider to the Issuer or as the Issuer may direct.

		(f)	Upon a Payment in Kind, all of the Guarantor’s right, title and
interest in and to each of the Loans listed in the Payment in Kind Notice and their Related Security from and after the Payment
in Kind Date shall be sold, transferred and assigned to the Issuer without recourse, representation or warranty (whether express,
implied, statutory or otherwise) to, against, by or on behalf of the Guarantor save and except that the Guarantor shall be deemed
to represent and warrant to the Issuer that (x) such Loans and the proceeds thereof are free and clear of any Adverse Claim created
by the Guarantor, and (y) the Guarantor has the power and authority to sell, transfer and assign such Loans and their Related Security
and the proceeds thereof as herein provided. In consideration of the foregoing, the outstanding amount of the Demand Loan shall
be reduced in accordance with Section 11.1(d).

		(g)	The Guarantor will, at the expense of the Issuer (i) execute and deliver
such assignments or other instruments of conveyance, (ii) make such filings (including filings of financing statements), and (iii)

and assigned to the Issuer upon a Payment in Kind (A) to the extent held by the Issuer, confirm that the Issuer ceases to
be under any further obligation to hold such documents to the order of the Guarantor or the Bond Trustee, or (B) to the extent
not held by the Issuer, deliver or cause to be delivered to the Issuer or as the Issuer may direct all such documents that are
in its possession or otherwise held to its order.

		(h)	Without limiting anything in this Agreement, each Payment in Kind shall
constitute a discharge and release of the Issuer from any claims which the Guarantor or the Bond Trustee may have against the Issuer
arising from the Loan Representations and Warranties in relation to the Loans and their Related Security sold, transferred and
assigned to the Issuer on the related Payment in Kind Date.

		11.2	Alternative Payment Arrangements

If, at any time,
it will become impracticable (by reason of any action of any Governmental Authority or any change in law, exchange control regulations
or any similar event) for the Guarantor to make any payments under this Agreement in the manner specified in Section 11.1 (Payment)
hereof, then the Guarantor will, at the expense of the Intercompany Loan Provider, make such alternative arrangements for the payment
of amounts due under this Agreement as are acceptable to the Intercompany Loan Provider and the Bond Trustee (acting reasonably).

withheld or delayed or made subject to conditions) save that the Guarantor will be entitled to assign whether by way of security
or otherwise all or any of its rights under this Agreement and all or any of its interest in the Loans and their Related Security
without such consent to the Bond Trustee pursuant to the Security Agreement and the Bond Trustee may at its sole discretion assign

Loan Provider acknowledges that on the assignment pursuant to the Security Agreement by the Guarantor to the Bond Trustee of the

of the Rating Agency Condition. The Guarantor will deliver notice to the Rating Agencies from time to time of any amendment, variations
or waivers for which satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition is not required, provided that failure to deliver such notice
will not constitute a breach of the obligations of the Guarantor under this Agreement. The Guarantor will deliver notice to CMHC

for the purposes of vesting in the successor Cash Manager all the rights and obligations of the Cash Manager under this Agreement.

		13.10	Change of Bond Trustee

change in the identity of the Bond Trustee or an additional Bond Trustee is appointed in accordance with the Security Agreement,

Bond Trustee under this Agreement and under the Security Agreement and releasing the outgoing Bond Trustee from any future obligations
under this Agreement. Notice thereof will be given to the Rating Agencies while any of the Covered Bonds remain outstanding.

to this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.6 (Amendments, Modification, Variation or Waiver). For the avoidance of doubt, the
parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the rights and powers of the Bond Trustee are governed by the Security Agreement.

Schedule 2

Asset Coverage Test

The “Asset Coverage Test”
is met if the ACT Asset Value (as defined below) shall be in an amount at least equal to the ACT Liability Value (as defined below).
For greater certainty, references in this Schedule to “immediately preceding Calculation Date” and “previous
Calculation Date” are to the Calculation Period ending on the Calculation Date and references to Loans are to Loans in
the Portfolio.

Asset Coverage Test = ACT Asset Value
– ACT Liability Value

“ACT Asset Value”
= A + B + C + D + E – F

where:

		A.	the lower of (1) and (2):

		(1)	the sum of the LTV Adjusted Loan Balance of each Loan in the Portfolio, net of Adjustments;
                                                             and

		(2)	the sum of the Asset Percentage Adjusted Loan Balance of each Loan in the Portfolio, net
                                                             of Adjustments

		B.	Principal Receipts up to Calculation Date not otherwise
applied

		C.	Cash capital contributions made by Partners of the Partnership
(as recorded in capital account ledger for each Partner) or proceeds advanced under the Intercompany Loan Agreement or proceeds

		D.	Outstanding principal amount of any Substitute Assets

		E.	Reserve Fund balance and/or amount credited to the Pre-Maturity
Liquidity Ledger, in either case if applicable

		F.	Product of:

		(1)	weighted average remaining maturity of all outstanding Covered Bonds (in years and, where less
than a year, deemed to be a year);

		(2)	principal amount outstanding of all Covered Bonds; and

		(3)	Negative Carry Factor

“LTV Adjusted Loan Balance”
= lower of (1) and (2), where:

		(1)	the True Loan Balance of the relevant Loan; and

		(2)	if such Loan is a Performing Eligible Loan, 80% of the Market Value of the
                                                             related Mortgaged Property, or if such Loan is not a Performing Eligible
                                                             Loan, zero

    	 

    	 

    

“Asset Percentage Adjusted
Loan Balance” = Asset Percentage x lower of (1) and (2):

		(1)	the True Loan Balance of the relevant Loan; and

		(2)	if such Loan is a Performing Eligible Loan, the Market Value of the
                                                             related Mortgaged Property, or if such Loan is not a Performing Eligible
                                                             Loan, zero

“Performing Eligible Loans”
= Eligible Loans less than three months in arrears

“Adjustments” = sum
of:

		(1)	LTV Adjusted Loan Balance or Asset Percentage Adjusted Loan Balance (as the case may be) of any
Performing Eligible Loan in breach of the Loan Representations and Warranties or otherwise subject to the Seller’s repurchase
obligation (but yet to be repurchased) under the Mortgage Sale Agreement; and

		(2)	financial losses (yet to be recompensed) resulting from any breach by the Seller of any other material
warranty in the Mortgage Sale Agreement or from any breach by a Servicer of a material term of the Servicing Agreement

“True Loan Balance”
= sum of:

		(1)	outstanding loan balance of the relevant Loan; and

		(2)	all Arrears of Interest and Accrued Interest with respect to the relevant Loan

“Asset Percentage”
= As determined below

“Negative Carry Factor”
=

		(1)	if the weighted average margin of the interest rate payable on the outstanding Covered Bonds relative
to the interest rate receivable on the Portfolio is less than or equal to 0.1% per annum, then 0.5%; and

		(2)	if the weighted average margin of the interest rate payable on the outstanding Covered Bonds relative
to the interest rate receivable on the Portfolio is greater than 0.1% per annum, then the sum of (x) 0.5% and (y) the weighted
average margin of the interest rate payable on the outstanding Covered Bonds less 0.1 %,

unless the interest rate risk represented
by the weighted average margin of the interest rate payable on the outstanding Covered Bonds relative to the interest rate receivable
on the Portfolio is addressed or mitigated by the Interest Rate Swap and the “Effective Date” thereunder has occurred,
whereupon the Negative Carry Factor shall be nil

“ACT
Liability Value” = Nominal amount of Covered Bond liabilities in Canadian dollars (with currency transaction undertaken
using or at foreign exchange rates reflected in the related Covered Bond Swap Agreement)

    	2

    	 

    

The “Asset Percentage”
shall be determined as follows:

		(i)	On or prior to the Guarantor Payment Date immediately
following the Calculation Date falling in February, May, August and November of each year, and on such other date as the Limited
Partner may request following the date on which the Limited Partner is required to assign the Interest Rate Swap Agreement to
a third party (each such date a “Cash Flow Model Calculation Date”), the Managing GP (or the Cash Manager on
its behalf) will determine the percentage figure selected by it as the Asset Percentage based on such methodologies as the Rating
Agencies may prescribe from time to time (to ensure sufficient credit enhancement for the Covered Bond Guarantee will be maintained)
for the Portfolio based on the value of the Loans and their Related Security in the Portfolio as at the Calculation Date immediately
preceding the Cash Flow Model Calculation Date as a whole or on the basis of a sample of Randomly Selected Loans, such calculations
to be made on the same basis throughout unless the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied in respect thereof.

(1)              
The Asset Percentage will from time to time be adjusted in accordance with the various methodologies of the Rating Agencies
to ensure that sufficient credit enhancement for the Covered Bond Guarantee will be maintained.

(2)              
The Managing GP (or the Cash Manager on its behalf) will, or will use all reasonable efforts to cause the one or more Rating
Agencies to, determine the Asset Percentage at least two days prior to the Guarantor Payment Date following the Cash Flow Model
Calculation Date and the Asset Percentage so determined shall be the lowest percentage so determined by any of the Rating Agencies
in accordance with this Schedule 2 and shall apply to any calculations in respect of the Calculation Period ending on such Cash
Flow Model Calculation Date and each Calculation Period thereafter to but excluding the last day of the following Calculation Period
ending on a Cash Flow Model Calculation Date. To the extent a Rating Agency does not respond to a request for a newly-determined
Asset Percentage, the Asset Percentage last determined by such Rating Agency shall be applicable with respect to such Rating Agency.

(3)              
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Schedule 2, the Asset Percentage shall at all times be less than
or equal to 95%, as determined in accordance with this Schedule 2 and as provided by Section 15.1(z) of the Trust Deed, provided
that the Asset Percentage shall not be less than 80% unless otherwise agreed by the Issuer (and following an Issuer Event of Default,
the Partnership for the purposes of making certain determinations in respect of the Intercompany Loan).
