for such consideration and upon such terms and conditions as they may
determine.

Subject to any direction to the contrary which may be given by the company in

company or such other amount as may from time to time be authorised by the

8.2        The directors may, in their absolute discretion and without giving
           any reason for so doing, decline to register any transfer of any
           share, whether or not it is a fully paid share. Regulation 24 of
           Table A shall be modified accordingly.

9. Notice of General Meetings

Notice of every general meeting shall be given to all members other than any
who, under the provisions of these articles or the terms of issue of the

and also to the auditors or, if more than one, each of them. The last sentence
of regulation 38 of Table A shall not apply.

10. Proceedings at General Meetings

For all purposes of these articles apart from when the company has only one
member, a general meeting of the company or of the holders of any class of its
shares shall be valid and effective for all purposes if one person being a
duly authorised representative of two or more corporations each of which is a
member entitled to vote upon the business to be transacted is present.
Regulation 40 of Table A shall be modified accordingly. If, and for so long
as, the company has only one member, that member or the proxy for that member
or, where that member is a corporation, its duly authorised representative
shall be a quorum at any general meeting of the company or of the holders of
any class of shares. Regulation 40 of Table A shall be modified accordingly.

11. Votes of Members

At a general meeting, but subject to any rights or restrictions attached to
any shares, on a show of hands every member who (being an individual) is
present in person or (being a corporation) is present by a duly authorised
representative and every proxy for any member (regardless of the number or the
holdings of the members for whom he is a proxy) shall have one vote, and on a
poll every member who is present in person or by proxy shall have one vote for

14. Delivery of Proxies

The instrument appointing a proxy and (if required by the directors) any
authority under which it is executed or a copy of the authority, certified
notarially or in some other manner approved by the directors, may be delivered
to the office (or to such other place or to such person as may be specified or
agreed by the directors) before the time for holding the meeting or adjourned
meeting at which the person named in the instrument proposes to act or, in
case of a poll taken subsequently to the date of the meeting or adjourned
meeting, before the time appointed for the taking of the poll, and an
instrument of proxy which is not so delivered shall be invalid. The directors
may at their discretion treat a faxed or other machine made copy of an
instrument appointing a proxy as such an instrument for the purpose of this
article. Regulation 62 of Table A shall not apply.

15. Alternate Directors

on any shares held by him.

The directors may delegate any of their powers (with power to sub-delegate) to
committees consisting of such person or persons (whether directors or not) as
they think fit. Regulation 72 of Table A shall be modified accordingly and
references in Table A to a committee of directors or to a director as a member
of such a committee shall include a committee established under this article
or such person or persons.

19. Appointment and Removal of Directors by Majority Shareholders

Any member holding, or any members holding in aggregate, a majority in nominal
value of such of the issued share capital for the time being of the company as
carries the right of attending and voting at general meetings of the company
may by memorandum in writing signed by or on behalf of him or them and
delivered to the office or tendered at a meeting of the directors or at a
general meeting of the company at any time and from time to time appoint any
person to be a director (either to fill a vacancy or as an additional
director) or remove any director from office (no matter how he was appointed).

20. Appointment of Directors by Board

Without prejudice to the powers conferred by any other article, any person may
be appointed a director by the directors, either to fill a vacancy or as an
additional director.

21. No Age Limit or Share Qualification

shall be ineligible for appointment as a director, by reason of his having
attained the age of 70 or another age. No



                                      8               Granite Master Issuer plc


shareholding qualification for directors shall be required. Section 293 of the

modified accordingly.

24. Powers of Directors

24.1       The powers of the directors mentioned in regulation 87 of Table A
           shall be exercisable as if the word "executive" (which appears
           before the word "office") were deleted.

24.2       Without prejudice to any of their other powers, the directors may
           exercise any of the powers conferred by the Statutes to make
           provision for the benefit of persons employed or formerly employed
           by the Company or any of its subsidiaries in connection with the
           cessation or the transfer to any person of the whole or part of the
           undertaking of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

25. Notice of Board Meetings

Notice of a meeting of the directors shall be deemed to be properly given to a
director if it is given to him personally or by word of mouth or sent in
writing to him at his last known address or any other address given by him to
the company for this purpose, or by any other means authorised in writing by
the director concerned. Notice shall be given in this manner to all directors
including any director who is for the time being absent from the United
Kingdom. A director may waive notice of any meeting either prospectively or
retrospectively. Regulation 88 of Table A shall be modified accordingly.

26. Participation in Board Meetings by Telephone

All or any of the members of the board or any committee of the board may
participate in a meeting of the board or that committee by means of a
conference telephone or any communication equipment which allows all persons
participating in the meeting to hear each other. A person so participating
shall be deemed to be present in person at the meeting and shall be entitled
to vote or be counted in a quorum accordingly. Such a meeting shall be deemed
to take place where the largest group of those participating is assembled, or,
if there is no such group, where the chairman of the meeting then is.

27. Resolution in Writing

A resolution in writing executed by all the directors for the time being
entitled to receive notice of a meeting of the board (if that number is
sufficient to constitute a quorum) or by all the members of a committee for
the time being shall be as valid and effectual as a resolution passed at a
meeting of the board or, as the case may be, of the committee properly called
and constituted. The resolution may be contained in one document or in several
documents in like form each executed by one or more of the directors or
members of the committee concerned. A resolution signed by an alternate
director need not also be signed by his appointor and, if it is signed by a
director who has appointed an alternate director, it need not be signed by the
alternate director in that capacity. Regulation 93 of Table A shall not apply.

28. Directors May Vote When Interested

A director who to his knowledge is in any way, whether directly or indirectly,
interested in a contract or proposed contract with the company shall declare
the nature of his interest at a meeting of the directors in accordance with
the Act. Subject where applicable to such disclosure, a director shall be
entitled to vote in respect of any contract or proposed contract in which he
is interested and if he shall do so his vote shall be counted and he shall be
taken into account in ascertaining whether a quorum is present. A reference in
this article to a contract includes any transaction or arrangement (whether or
not constituting a contract). Regulations 94 and 95 of Table A shall not
apply.

29. Official Seal

29.1       The Company may exercise the powers conferred by the Statutes with
           regard to having official seals and those powers shall be vested in
           the directors.

29.2       The directors shall provide for the safe custody of every seal
           which the Company may have.

29.3       A seal shall be used only by the authority of the directors or a
           duly authorised committee but that authority may consist of an
           instruction or approval given by letter, facsimile, telegram, telex
           or telephone by a majority of the directors or of the members of a
           duly authorised committee.

29.4       The directors may determine who shall sign any instrument to which
           a seal is applied, either generally or in relation to a particular
           instrument or type of instrument, and may also determine, either
           generally or in any particular case, that such signatures shall be
           dispensed with or affixed by some mechanical means.

29.5       Unless otherwise decided by the directors:

           (a)       certificates for shares, debentures or other securities
                     of the Company to which a seal is applied need not be
                     signed; and

           (b)       every other instrument to which a seal is applied shall
                     be signed by at least one director and the secretary or
                     by at least two directors.

29.6       Certificates for shares, debentures or other securities of the
           Company need not be sealed with the seal but may be signed on
           behalf of the Company by at least one director and the secretary or
           by at least two directors or by such other person or persons as may
           be authorised by the directors for that purpose. Regulation 6 of
           Table A shall be amended accordingly. Regulation 101 of Table A
           shall not apply.

30. Notices

Any notice or other document may be served on or delivered to any member by
the company either personally, or by sending it by post addressed to the
member at his registered address or by fax or telex to a number provided by
the member for this purpose, or by leaving it at his registered address
addressed to the member, or by any other means authorised in writing by the
member concerned. In the case of joint holders of a share, service or delivery
of any notice or other document on or to one of the joint holders shall for
all purposes be deemed a sufficient service on or delivery to all the joint
holders. Regulation 112 of Table A shall not apply.

31. Time of Service

Any notice or other document, if sent by the company by post, shall be deemed
to have been served or delivered twenty four hours after posting and, in
proving such service or delivery, it shall be sufficient to prove that the
notice or document was properly addressed, stamped and put in the post. Any
notice or other document left by the company at a registered address otherwise
than by post, or sent by fax or



                                      10               Granite Master Issuer plc


telex or other instantaneous means of transmission, shall be deemed to have
been served or delivered when it was so left or sent. Regulation 115 of Table
A shall not apply.

32. Indemnity

32.1       Subject to the provisions of and to the extent permitted by the
           Statutes, every director, other officer or auditor of the Company
           shall be indemnified out of the assets of the Company against any
           liability incurred by him in the actual or purported execution or
           discharge of his duties or the exercise or purported exercise of
           his powers or otherwise in relation to or in connection with his
           duties, powers or office, but:

           (a)       this indemnity shall not apply to any liability to the
                     extent that it is recovered from any other person; and

           (b)       the indemnity is subject to such officer or auditor
                     taking all reasonable steps to effect such recovery, so
                     that the indemnity shall not apply to the extent that an
                     alternative right of recovery is capable of being
                     enforced.

32.2       Regulation 118 of Table A shall not apply.
