　　The Remaining Party and the Transferee are simultaneously entering into a 1992 ISDA Master Agreement dated as of the date hereof in the form attached hereto as Exhibit II (the New Agreement).

　　With effect from and including May 27, 2015 (the Novation Date) the Transferor wishes to transfer by novation to the Transferee, and the Transferee wishes to accept the transfer by novation of, all the rights, liabilities, duties and obligations of the Transferor under and in respect of each Old Transaction, with the exception of the Excluded Rights and Obligations referred to below, with the effect that the Remaining Party and the Transferee enter into a new transaction (each a New Transaction) between them having terms identical to those of each Old Transaction, subject to the same exceptions and as more particularly described below.

　　The Remaining Party wishes to accept the Transferee as its sole counterparty with respect to the New Transactions.

　　The Transferor and the Remaining Party wish to have released and discharged, as a result and to the extent of the transfer described above, their respective obligations under and in respect of the Old Transactions.

　　Accordingly, the parties agree as follows:

　　1. Definitions. 定义

For purposes of this Novation Agreement, Excluded Rights and Obligations means all obligations of each of the Transferor and the Remaining Party to Transfer (as defined in the Credit Support Annex to the Old Agreement) Eligible Collateral (as so defined) in respect of the Old Transactions and all related rights of the Remaining Party and the Transferor under the Old Agreement.

　　(a) subject to Section 2(d) of this Novation Agreement, the Remaining Party and the Transferor are each released and discharged from further obligations to each other with respect to each Old Transaction and their respective rights against each other thereunder are cancelled, provided that such release and discharge shall not affect any rights, liabilities or obligations of the Remaining Party or the Transferor with respect to payments or other obligations due and payable or due to be performed prior to the Novation Date, and all such payments and obligations shall be paid or performed by the Remaining Party or the Transferor in accordance with the terms of the Old Transaction;

　　(b) in respect of each New Transaction, the Remaining Party and the Transferee each undertake liabilities and obligations towards the other and acquire rights against each other identical in their terms to each corresponding Old Transaction (and, for the avoidance of doubt, as if the Transferee were the Transferor and with the Remaining Party remaining the Remaining Party, save for the Excluded Rights and Obligations and any other rights, liabilities or obligations of the Remaining Party or the Transferor with respect to payments or other obligations due and payable or due to be performed prior to the Novation Date);
