Conversely, if a derivative transaction is an OTC transaction, the counterparty exposure amount will depend largely upon the creditworthiness of the counterparty to the transaction. With respect to OTC transactions and transactions entered through non-qualified exchanges, the Investment Manager shall seek to mitigate counterparty exposure by (i) evaluating and monitoring the financial qualifications of counterparties to ensure that they meet the counterparty requirements set forth in Section IV.A of this Plan, and (ii) to the extent appropriate, requiring counterparties to provide the Companies with sufficient collateral security and other financial assurances, such as the posting of collateral or letters of credit. Specifically, the Investment Manager shall request collateral in the event that total net exposure to such counterparty exceeds an amount based on the following schedule: - $25 million for a counterparty with a AAA rating - $20 million for a counterparty with a AA rating - $15 million for a counterparty with a A rating - $5 million for a counterparty with a BBB+ rating - $2.5 million for a counterparty with a BBB rating - $0 for BBB- and lower In the event that collateral is required, the Investment Manager will request either a letter of credit from an acceptable bank or collateral consisting of cash or high quality securities for at least 100% of the amount of net exposure exceeding the amount outlined above.
