  13. Sherlock Collateralized CLN • Investors purchase a CLN from a Special Purpose Vehicle, Sherlock. Sherlock uses the proceeds from the CLN to invest in any collateral that investor requires e.g. “AAA” rated bonds, CSFB bonds, PRC bonds, etc. • Risk is to the Reference Entity and also to the issuer of the collateral. Significant yield enhancement comes from yield on collateral. • If Reference Entity experiences Credit Event, collateral is sold at its market value and the proceeds exchanged for Obligations of the Reference Entity. These are delivered to investor.

  19. Bond Linked Note • Fixed or floating rate note with embedded put option on bonds. Principal only is subject to the price risk of a specified bond issue. Interest is guaranteed. • If the price of the bond is below a strike price chosen by the investor on the maturity date, CSFB has the right to deliver bonds with a face amount equal to the Notional Amount of the Note. • As an alternative to buying cash bond. Investors achieve liquid exposure to a bond and yield enhancement in the short term. If put option is exercised, investor receives underlying bonds at a lower price and higher yield than what they would get today in the cash market.
