THE ISSUER
A2D Funding II is a special purpose vehicle established for

A2D Funding II is neither directly nor indirectly owned
or controlled by any member of the A2Dominion Group.
It is owned and managed by an independent trustee.
THE GUARANTOR
The Bonds are guaranteed by the Guarantor. The Guarantor
is the parent holding company of the A2Dominion Group
and is responsible for the A2Dominion Group's overall
strategy and performance. Please refer to "Guarantee"
in "Terms and Conditions of the Bonds", Appendix 2 in
the Prospectus.
OVERVIEW
The Guarantor is the parent entity of the A2Dominion
Group, one of the largest housing providers operating
across London and south east England, managing around
34,500 homes and developing approximately a further
4,600 homes. The Guarantor provides the strategic
direction, and central and development services, for the
A2Dominion Group. The Guarantor is dependent on other
group members as its income derives from the fees paid to
it by its subsidiaries for the provision of services to them.
The Guarantor is registered in England as a registered

number 28985R). It is also a registered as a Registered

HISTORY
The A2Dominion Group's history goes back over 60 years.
It was originally established as the British Airways Staff
Housing Society in 1947 for the development of properties
for British Airways staff workers. In 1987, the British Airways
Staff Housing Society formed Airways Housing Society (in
2001 expanding to become Airways Housing Group Limited)
to diversify its activities into the social housing sector.
The A2Dominion Group in its present form was created
in October 2008 as a result of the merger between
A2 Housing Group and Dominion Housing Group.
