ANNEX

Contracts instrumenting financing must clearly establish that the failure to contract insurance in favor of acquirers of projected functional units, pursuant to Article 2071 of the National Civil and Commercial Code, will not deprive the financial entity of any rights arising from the granted financing. When dealing with pledge or assignment in guarantee of rights over functional units for financing granted directly to acquirers, in addition to the aforementioned requirements, it will be required: i) presentation of a notarized copy of the instruments by which those rights were established in favor of the respective acquirers, and ii) copy of the approved construction plan by the competent authority showing that all projected functional units to be subdivided are included.

1.3. Remaining guarantees.
Guarantees not explicitly included in the preceding points, such as mortgages in a degree other than first and pledges or cautions on shares or commercial documents, and encumbrances established abroad subject to legislation other than local –except expressly provided cases–, will be considered non-preferred.
