7 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies a. Accounting Practices The accompanying financial statements of (the "Company" or "Ambac Assurance ) have been prepared on the basis of accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the State of Wisconsin Office of the Commissioner of Insurance ("Wisconsin Insurance Commissioner" or "OCI"). The Wisconsin Insurance Commissioner recognizes only statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the State of Wisconsin for determining and reporting the financial condition and results of operations of an insurance company for determining its solvency under Wisconsin Insurance Law. The National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC") Accounting Practices and Procedures manual ("NAIC SAP") has been adopted as a component of prescribed practices by the State of Wisconsin. The Wisconsin Insurance Commissioner has prescribed an accounting practice that differs from NAIC SAP. Paragraph 7 of Statement of Statutory Accounting Principles No. 60 Financial Guaranty Insurance ( SSAP 60 ) allows for a deduction from loss reserves for the time value of money by application of a discount rate equal to the average rate of return on the admitted assets of the financial guaranty insurer as of the date of the computation of the reserve. The discount rate shall be adjusted at the end of each calendar year. Additionally, in accordance with paragraph 7 of Statutory Accounting Principles No. 5 Liabilities, Contingencies and Impairments of Assets, Ambac Assurance records probable losses on its subsidiaries credit derivative contracts, using a discount rate equal to the average rate of return on its admitted assets. The Company s average rate of return on its admitted assets at December 31, 2009 was 6.74%. The Wisconsin Insurance Commissioner has directed the Company to utilize a prescribed discount rate of 5.10% for the purpose of discounting both its loss reserves and its estimated impairment losses on subsidiary guarantees. Statutory surplus at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was lower by $53,535,492 and $1,515,691,199, respectively, than if the Company had reported such amounts in accordance with NAIC SAP. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was higher by $1,462,155,707 and for the year ended December 31, 2009 was lower by $1,515,691,199, than if the Company had reported such amounts in accordance with NAIC SAP. The Wisconsin Insurance Commissioner has prescribed an additional accounting practice that differs from NAIC SAP. Paragraph 4 of Statement of Statutory Accounting Principles No. 41 Surplus Notes ( SSAP 41 ) states that proceeds received by the issuer of surplus notes must be in the form of cash or other admitted assets having readily determinable values and liquidity satisfactory to the commissioner of the state of domicile. Under the statutory accounting principles as generally applied, surplus notes issued in conjunction with commutations or the settlement of claims would be valued at zero upon issuance pursuant to paragraph 4, SSAP 41. The Wisconsin Insurance Commissioner has directed the Company to record surplus notes issued in connection with commutations or the settlement of claims at full par value upon issuance as in these instances the surplus notes do not represent a contribution of capital, but rather a distribution of value from the common and preferred shareholders of the Company. The surplus notes issued in connection with commutations or settlement of claims have a claim against surplus senior to the preferred and common shareholders. Statutory surplus is not impacted as a result of the prescribed practice as it is a reclassification from unassigned funds to surplus notes. Net income for nine months ended September 30, 2010 is lower by $2,000,000,000 than if the Company had recorded the issuance of surplus notes in accordance with NAIC SAP. Wisconsin accounting practices for changes to contingency reserves differ from NAIC SAP. Under NAIC SAP, contributions to and releases from the contingency reserve are recorded via a direct charge or credit to surplus. Under section 3.08(7)(b) of the Wisconsin Administrative Code, contributions to and releases from the contingency reserve are to be recorded through underwriting income. The Company received permission of the Wisconsin Insurance Commissioner to record contributions to and releases from the contingency reserve and the related tax and loss bond impact, in accordance with NAIC SAP. Statutory surplus is the same using each of these accounting practices. Net income for nine months ended September 30, 2010 and full year ended December 31, 2009 are higher by $116,959,498 and lower by $1,578,541,184, respectively, than if the Company had recorded contingency reserve in accordance with the Wisconsin Administrative Code. A reconciliation of the Company's net income and capital and statutory surplus between practices prescribed and permitted by the Wisconsin Insurance Commissioner and NAIC SAP is shown below: September 30, 2010 December 31, 2009 Net Loss, Wisconsin Basis $ (1,797,679,925) $ (901,070,526) Effect of Wisconsin Prescribed Practices: 537,844,293 1,515,691,199 Effect of Wisconsin Permitted Practices: 116,959,498 (1,578,541,184) Net Loss, NAIC SAP $ (1,142,876,134) $ (963,920,511) Statutory Surplus, Wisconsin Basis $ 911,940,401 $ 801,868,685 1,515,691,199 Effect of Wisconsin Prescribed Practices: 53,535,492 Effect of Wisconsin Permitted Practices: - - Statutory Surplus, NAIC SAP $ 965,475,893 $ 2,317,559,884 Note 2 - Accounting Changes and Corrections of Errors No significant change from 2009 Notes to Financial Statements.

Note 4 - Discontinued Operations Note 5 - Investments No significant change from 2009 Notes to Financial Statements. d. Loan-Backed Securities i. The Company consistently uses the retrospective method to revalue loan-backed securities using current prepayment assumptions. ii. iii. iv. Prepayment assumptions for single class and multi-class loan-backed securities were obtained from publicly available sources. During 2010, there were no changes in the methodology utilized by the Company to revalue loan-backed securities. During 2010, the Company recognized other-than-temporary impairment losses ( OTTI losses ) on certain loan-backed securities for which it had the intent to sell as well as on securities where the present value of cash flows expected to be collected were less than the amortized cost basis of the securities. For the loan-backed securities still held at September 30, 2010, the total amortized cost immediately prior to the recognition of OTTI losses, the OTTI losses recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, and the fair value of these securities at the time OTTI losses were recognized are as follows: Amortized Cost Basis Immediately Prior to Recognition of OTTI Losses OTTI Losses Recognized during nine months ended September 30, 2010 Fair Value at the time OTTI Losses were recognized (1) Aggregate of all loan-backed securities for which OTTI losses were recognized during 2010 that were classified as Intent to Sell $73,314,240 $15,452,380 $57,861,860 Aggregate of all loan-backed securities for which OTTI losses were recognized during 2010 that were classified as Intent & Ability to Hold to Maturity Aggregate of all loan-backed securities for which OTTI losses were recognized during 2010 due to the present value of cash flows expected to be collected were less than the amortized cost basis of the security (2) $378,250,217 $121,458,260 $256,791,957 (1) Fair value of these loan-backed securities based on Securities Valuation Office ( SVO ) prices, if available, at September 30, 2010 was $331,489,041. (2) Cash flows on Ambac Assurance insured residential mortgage-backed securities were adversely impacted due to the claims moratorium and actions by the Wisconsin Insurance Commissioner, resulting in other-than-temporary impairment losses, which was reported as a realized capital loss in the Statement of Income. v. During 2010, the Company recognized other-than-temporary impairment losses ( OTTI losses ) on certain loan-backed securities where the present value of cash flows expected to be collected were less than the amortized cost basis of the securities. For the loan-backed securities still held at September 30, 2010, the total amortized cost immediately prior to the recognition of OTTI losses, the OTTI losses recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, and the fair value of these securities at the time OTTI losses were recognized are as follows: Amortized cost before current period OTTI Recognized other-than-temporary impairment Amortized cost after other-than-temporary impairment Projected Fair Value at CUSIP Cashflows 09/30/ CF5 $ 3,298, $ 1,525, $1,772, $ 1,525, $2,695, WAA7 11,543, ,256, ,286, ,256, ,966, WAP4 14,175, ,680, ,495, ,680, ,562, WBA6 288, , , , , TAC0 8,103, ,829, ,274, ,829, ,904, TAD8 3,425, ,945, ,480, ,945, ,220, TAF3 4,872, ,218, ,653, ,218, ,973, NY0 3,166, ,599, , ,599, ,553, TP7 315, , , , , AB5 9,766, ,036, , ,036, ,732, AC3 6,096, ,111, ,985, ,111, ,056, AD1 736, , , , , Q06.1

The following table shows all impaired securities (Fair value is less than cost or amortized cost) for which an other-than-temporary impairment has not been recognized in earnings by length of time that the individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position at September 30, 2010: Unrealized Loss Fair Value Less than 12 months $11,983,025 $53,215,718 Greater than 12 months $7,706,684 $42,031,634 vii. Ambac Assurance has a formal impairment review process for all securities in its investment portfolio. Ambac Assurance conducts a review each quarter to identify and evaluate investments that have indications of possible other than temporary impairment, including substantial or continuous declines in fair value below amortized cost or declines in external credit ratings from the time the securities were purchased. Management has determined that the unrealized losses reflected in the table above are temporary in nature as of September 30, 2010 based upon (i) no unexpected principal and interest payment defaults on these securities; (ii) analysis of the creditworthiness of the issuer and financial guarantor, as applicable, and analysis of projected defaults on the underlying collateral; (iii) management has no intent to sell these investments in debt securities; and (iv) it is not more likely than not that Ambac Assurance will be required to sell these debt securities before the anticipated recovery of its amortized cost basis. The assessment under (iv) is based on a comparison of future available liquidity from the fixed income investment portfolio against the projected net cash outflow from operating activities and debt service. For purposes of this assessment, available liquidity from the fixed income investment portfolio is comprised of the fair value of securities for which management has asserted its intent to sell plus the scheduled maturities and interest payments from the remaining securities in the portfolio. As of September 30, 2010, for securities that have indications of possible other-than-temporary impairment but which management does not intend to sell and will not more likely than not be required to sell, management compared the present value of cash flows expected to be collected to the amortized cost basis of the securities to assess whether the amortized cost will be recovered. Cash flows were discounted at the effective interest rate implicit in the security at the date of acquisition. For floating rate securities, future cash flows and the discount rate used were both adjusted to reflect changes in the index rate applicable to each security as of the evaluation date.

Consolidated federal income tax return 1) The Company will be included in Ambac Financial Group, Inc. s ( Ambac ) consolidated federal income tax return, which includes the following taxable entities: Ambac, Ambac Assurance, Ambac (Bermuda) Limited, Ambac Capital Corporation, Ambac Investments Inc., Ambac Capital Funding, Inc., Ambac Asset Funding Corporation, Ambac All Corporation, Connie Lee Holdings, Inc. ( Connie Lee Holdings ) and Everspan. 2) The method of allocation between the Companies is subject to a written Tax Sharing Agreement approved by both the Wisconsin Insurance Department and the Company s Board of Directors. Amounts assessed/reimbursed are based upon separate return calculations made as if the Company had filed its own federal income tax return for each taxable period. Pursuant to an agreement with Ambac, the Company will be paid for losses to the extent they could be utilized by the Company on a standalone basis under the rules of the Internal Revenue Code. Note 10 - Information Concerning Parent, Subsidiaries, Affiliates and Other Related Parties Recent Developments on Ambac and Ambac Assurance: Chapter 11 Reorganization On November 8, 2010 Ambac filed for a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 ( Bankruptcy Filing ) of the United States Bankruptcy Code ( Bankruptcy Code ) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York ( Bankruptcy Court ). Ambac will continue to operate in the ordinary course of business as debtor-in-possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the orders of the Bankruptcy Court. Ambac was unable to raise additional capital as an alternative to seeking bankruptcy protection and was also unable to agree to terms with an ad-hoc committee of certain senior debt holders in order to restructure its outstanding debt through a prepackaged bankruptcy proceeding. However, Ambac, Ambac Assurance, OCI and the ad hoc committee have agreed to a non-binding term sheet that will serve as the basis for further negotiation which, if successful, may allow Ambac to emerge from bankruptcy more expeditiously. The principal issues raised in the non-binding term sheet relate to (i) the allocation of tax attributes (including, without limitation, NOLs) among Ambac and its subsidiaries, including Ambac Assurance and the Segregated Account, (ii) cost sharing agreements among Ambac and its subsidiaries, (iii) repurchases of outstanding securities of Ambac Assurance. As such, OCI and the Rehabilitator of the Segregated Account will participate in negotiations with respect to the non-binding term sheet. If the negotiations do not produce an agreement among the parties, Ambac (or its creditors) could take actions which would adversely affect Ambac Assurance and/or the Q06.3

11 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Segregated Account. As such, OCI may determine that it is in the best interests of policyholders to initiate rehabilitation proceedings with respect to Ambac Assurance, either pre-emptively, or in response to any such action. As of September 30, 2010, Ambac had debt outstanding amounting to $1,622 million. As a result of the bankruptcy filing, Ambac s obligations under these debt securities are accelerated. Upon the bankruptcy filing, any efforts to enforce such payment obligations under the Debt Documents are stayed pursuant to the automatic stay provisions of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, and the creditors rights of enforcement in respect of the Debt Documents are subject to the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. Shortly after the Petition Date, Ambac began notifying current or potential creditors of the Bankruptcy Filing. Subject to certain exceptions under the Bankruptcy Code, the bankruptcy filing automatically enjoined, or stayed, the continuation of any judicial or administrative proceedings or other actions against Ambac. Thus, for example, most creditor actions to obtain possession of property from Ambac, or to create, perfect or enforce any lien against the property of Ambac, or to collect on monies owed or otherwise exercise rights or remedies to a claim arising prior to the Petition Date are enjoined unless and until the Bankruptcy Court lifts the automatic stay. Vendors are being paid for goods furnished and services provided after the Petition Date in the ordinary course of business. The deadline for filing of proofs of claims against Ambac has not yet been established by the Bankruptcy Court. In order to successfully emerge from bankruptcy, Ambac will need to propose and obtain confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court of a plan of reorganization that satisfies the requirements of the Bankruptcy Code. A plan or reorganization would, among other things, resolve Ambac s obligations arising prior to the Petition Date, set forth the revised capital structure of a newly reorganized Ambac and provide for corporate governance subsequent to emergence from bankruptcy. Segregated Account On March 24, 2010, Ambac Assurance established to the request of OCI to establish a segregated account pursuant to Wisc. Stat (2) (the Segregated Account ). The purpose of the Segregated Account is to segregate certain segments of Ambac Assurance s liabilities. The Segregated Account will be operated in accordance with a Plan of Operation (the Plan of Operation ) and certain operative documents relating thereto (which include the Secured Note, the Reinsurance Agreement, the Management Services Agreement and the Cooperation Agreement). These operative documents provide that the Segregated Account will act exclusively through the rehabilitator. Pursuant to the Plan of Operation, Ambac Assurance has allocated to the Segregated Account (1) certain policies insuring or relating to credit default swaps; (2) residential mortgage-backed securities ( RMBS ) policies; (3) certain Student Loan Policies, some of which were allocated to the Segregated Account on March 24, 2010 (or shortly thereafter), and some of which were allocated on October 8, 2010, after undergoing an assessment process contemplated by the Plan of Operations; and (4) other policies insuring obligations with substantial projected impairments or relating to transactions which have contractual triggers based upon Ambac Assurance's financial condition or the commencement of rehabilitation, which triggers are potentially damaging (collectively, the Segregated Account Policies ). The policies described in (4) above include (a) certain types of securitizations, including commercial asset-backed transactions, consumer asset-backed transactions and other types of structured transactions; (b) the policies relating to Las Vegas Monorail Company; (c) policies relating to debt securities purchased by, and the debt securities issued by, Juneau Investments, LLC and Aleutian Investments, LLC, which are both finance companies owned by Ambac Assurance; (d) policies relating to leveraged lease transactions; and (e) policies relating to interest rate, basis, and/or currency swap or other swap transactions. Ambac Assurance also allocated the following to the Segregated Account: (i) all remediation claims, defenses, offsets, and/or credits (except with respect to recoveries arising from remediation efforts or reimbursement or collection rights), if any, in respect of the Segregated Account Policies, (ii) Ambac Assurance s disputed contingent liability, if any, under the long-term lease with One State Street, LLC, and its contingent liability (as guarantor), if any, under the Ambac Assurance UK Limited ( Ambac UK ) lease with British Land, (iii) Ambac Assurance s limited liability interests in Ambac Credit Products, LLC ( ACP ), Ambac Conduit Funding LLC, Aleutian Investments, LLC ( Aleutian ) and Juneau Investments, LLC ( Juneau ) and (iv) all of Ambac Assurance s liabilities as reinsurer under reinsurance agreements (except for reinsurance assumed from Everspan). Net par exposure as of September 30, 2010 for policies allocated to the Segregated Account, including student loan policies allocated on October 8, 2010, is $45,949,138,244. Net par exposure allocated to the Segregated Account no longer includes exposure previously assumed from Ambac UK. See below for further discussion on the Commutation of the AUK Reinsurance Agreement on September 28, On March 24, 2010, the OCI commenced rehabilitation proceedings with respect to the Segregated Account (the Segregated Account Rehabilitation Proceedings ) in order to permit the OCI to facilitate an orderly run-off and/or settlement of the liabilities allocated to the Segregated Account pursuant to the provisions of the Wisconsin Insurers Rehabilitation and Liquidation Act. The rehabilitator of the Segregated Account is Sean Dilweg, the Commissioner of Insurance of the State of Wisconsin. On March 24, 2010, the rehabilitation court also issued an injunction effective until further order of the court enjoining certain actions by Segregated Account policyholders and other counterparties, including the assertion of damages or acceleration of losses based on early termination and the loss of control rights in insured transactions. Certain Segregated Account policyholders have filed lawsuits challenging the Segregated Account Rehabilitation Proceedings (see Note 14.) In July 2010, the Segregated Account issued $50,000,000 of Segregated Account Surplus Notes in connection with a commutation of an insurance policy allocated to the Segregated Account. At September 30, 2010, the Segregated Account Surplus Notes are reported with a carrying value of $50,000,000. Interest on the Segregated Account Surplus Notes is payable annually at the rate of 5.1% on the unpaid principal balance outstanding. All payments of principal and interest on the Segregated Account Surplus Notes are subject to the prior approval of the OCI. If the OCI does not approve the payment of interest on the Segregated Account Surplus Notes, such interest will accrue and compound annually until paid. The Segregated Account Surplus Notes were issued pursuant to a fiscal agency agreement entered into with The Bank of New York Mellon, as fiscal agent. On October 8, 2010, the Rehabilitator filed a plan of rehabilitation for the Segregated Account (the Segregated Account Rehabilitation Plan ) in the Dane County Circuit Court in Wisconsin (the Rehabilitation Court ). Before the Segregated Account Rehabilitation Plan can become effective it must be confirmed by the Rehabilitation Court. The hearing on the Rehabilitator s motion for confirmation of the Segregated Account Rehabilitation Plan has been scheduled to begin on November 15, Claims on Segregated Account Policies remain subject to a payment moratorium until the Segregated Account Rehabilitation Plan becomes effective. Insurance claims presented during the moratorium of $1,083,796,000 for policies allocated to the Segregated Account have not yet been paid. If the Segregated Account Rehabilitation Plan is confirmed by the Rehabilitation Court, holders of permitted policy claims will receive 25% of their permitted claims in cash and 75% in surplus notes (the Segregated Account Surplus Notes ) with the same terms as the Ambac Assurance Surplus Notes (as defined below), and delivery of such cash and Segregated Account Surplus Notes will constitute satisfaction in full of the Segregated Account s obligations in respect of each claim. The policyholders will not have the option to reject the surplus notes as consideration for settling claim liabilities. The Segregated Account Rehabilitation Plan also makes permanent the injunctions issued by the Rehabilitation Court on March 24, Effective November 7, 2010, the Plan of Operation for the Segregated Account was amended for the purpose of allocating to the Segregated Account (i) any and all liabilities (including contingent liabilities) it has or may have, now or in the future, to Ambac, or any Q06.4
