SCOPE OF RATING

CRAB assigned preliminary ratings of AAA to BDT 250.0 million Class A Senior
Tranche and AA1 to BDT 25.0 million Class B Subordinated Tranche on 21 March
2007. The preliminary ratings as indicated above constitute the securitization of lease
receivables originated by IDLC, a leading non-bank financial institution. The credit-
linked securities are backed by the collateral (IDLC’s earmarked portfolio), which
would be purchased at closing by IDLC Securitization Trust 2007-A, with the proceeds
from the issuance of the above mentioned securities. The Issuer is a Special Purpose
Vehicle (SPV), registered in Bangladesh as Trust. The outstanding principal of the
underlying pool, repayable in quarterly installments after 12 months of issuance of
security and matures at the end of 48 month, whereas the final maturity of the
underlying pool was 58 months from the issue date. The investors hold an undivided
beneficial interest in the underlying assets and receivables. The rating of the
securities was directly linked to the rating of the underlying pool as well as the
transaction structure.

Initially, the structure was framed in such way that investors to the security would
get coupon plus predefined principal redemption. The originator now would like to
restructure the transaction where the issuer (SPV) would issue zero coupon bond
therefore there would no coupon payment to the investors. The issuer would now
redeem the bond at face value (annual discount rate 7.75%). Considering the tax
benefit, the effective annual rate of interest for the investors would be 14.09%.

CRAB analysis looks into the structural changes of the transaction and its effect on
the cash flow and ultimately default probability and credit enhancement level. The
revised rating captures the changes and its subsequent effect on ratings. This report
is a supplementary to the RATING REPORT dated 21 March 2007, which is placed at
Annexure-A.
