(the "Issuer" or the "Transaction" as the context requires)

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN to Noteholders that:

1) On 13 December 2021 the Issuer received an e-mail from Annabel Watson via a Clifden Group e-mail account, containing a letter from Cherry Services Ltd, a company incorporated in The Republic of the Marshall Islands, purporting, amongst other things, to notify the Issuer that:

a) on 18 October 2021, having purportedly served notice on the Issuer, the following "Investor Directors" had been appointed as what the letter described as 'de facto' directors:

   i)    Usman Ahmad 
   ii)   Corelli Capital AG 
   iii)   Blue Side Services S.A. 
   iv)   Cherry Services Ltd 

b) On 20 October 2021, having purportedly given notice, apparently called a Board Meeting of the Issuer to call up the unpaid share capital of the Issuer and required the existing shareholders (the "Shareholders") to make payment and to send the funds to 152-160 City Road, London, EC1 2NX by 10 November 2021.

c) On 12 November 2021 a purported Forfeiture Notice was allegedly issued and served by the Issuer on the Shareholders for not complying with the purported call up of the unpaid share capital given on 20 October 2021 and purportedly giving the Shareholders until 3 December 2021 to comply.

d) On 7 December 2021, an alleged Board Meeting was held at which it is purported that the 49,998 partly paid shares of the Issuer held by the Shareholders were forfeited and purportedly sold to FVS Investments Limited ("FVS") with the remaining 2 fully paid shares still being held by the Shareholders. This purported action allegedly meant that FVS was now purportedly the majority shareholder.

2) Contained in the e-mail set out in (1) above were Notices dated 10 December 2021, apparently signed by FVS as the purported majority shareholder, alleging to have removed, with immediate effect:

   a)   the following as Directors of the Issuer: 
   i)    Mark Howard Filer 
   ii)    L.D.C. Securitisation Director No.3 Limited 
   iii)   L.D.C. Securitisation Director No.4 Limited 
   b)   Law Debenture Corporate Services Limited as the Secretary of the Issuer 

c) Law Debenture Corporate Services Limited as the Corporate Servicer of the Issuer being replaced by Cherry Services Ltd.

The Issuer hereby confirms that:

   (a)         none of the following is or has ever been a director of the Issuer 
   i)      Usman Ahmad 
   ii)     Corelli Capital AG 
   iii)    Blue Side Services S.A. 
   iv)    Cherry Services Ltd 

(b) it follows that no forfeiture, sale or transfer of any shares has occurred and thus FVS is not a holder or any shares in the Issuer

3) In view of the above matters, the Issuer has reason to suspect that Usman Ahmad, Corelli Capital AG, Blue Side Services S.A., Cherry Services Ltd and/or those acting on their behalf may attempt to carry out further invalid actions purportedly by or on behalf of the Issuer. Noteholders and potential Noteholders should bear the above in mind before engaging in any trading of Instruments or taking any other investment decision in relation to the Instruments, when reviewing notices purporting to come from or on behalf of the Issuer.

4) The email from Annabel Watson also enclosed a Claim Form issued out of the Commercial Court in London on 13 December 2021. The Claim was purportedly issued by Great Hall Mortgages No 1 PLC, and Cherry Services Limited. The Defendants were listed as: (1) Law Debenture Corporate Services Limited; (2) Mark Filer; (3) LDC Securitisation Director No. 3 Limited; (4) LDC Securitisation Director No. 4 Limited. It goes without saying that the Issuer did not authorise the issuing of the Claim. The Issuer has appointed lawyers to take the necessary actions in relation to the above matters. Noteholders may be interested to know that similar invalid actions against a securitisation vehicle by purported directors were described in the case of Business Mortgage Finance 4 Plc and Others v. Rizwan Hussain and Others [2021] EWHC 171 Ch. In that case, the High Court in London (Miles J) decided that those actions were invalid and appropriate declarations and injunctions against the defendants were made.

5) The Issuer will provide such further notices to Noteholders in relation to the above as it considers necessary.

If you have any questions or require any clarification about this notice, please contact the Issuer. This notice is given by the Issuer.
