The liabilities referred to in paragraph 2a, points (a) and (b), of this Article, shall not exceed the amount determined by subtracting from the amount of the requirement referred to in Article 12(1) applicable to the subsidiary included in the consolidation the sum of all of the following: (a) the liabilities issued to and bought by the entity complying with the requirement referred to in Article 12a(1) on a consolidated basis either directly, or indirectly through other entities in the same resolution group that are included in the consolidation of that entity; (b) the amount of own funds that are issued in accordance with paragraph 2, point (b), of this Article. 3. The Board may permit the requirement referred to in Article 12a(1) to be met in full or in part with a guarantee provided by the resolution entity which fulfils the following conditions: (a) both the subsidiary and the resolution entity are established in the same participating Member State and are part of the same resolution group; (b) the resolution entity complies with the requirement referred to in Article 12f; (c) the guarantee is provided for at least an amount that is equivalent to the amount of the requirement for which it substitutes; (d) the guarantee is triggered when the subsidiary is unable to pay its debts or other liabilities as they fall due, or a determination has been made in accordance with Article 21(3) in respect of the subsidiary, whichever is the earliest; (e) the guarantee is collateralised through a financial collateral arrangement as defined in point (a) of Article 2(1) of Directive 2002/47/EC of the European Parliament and of the CouncilDirective 2002/47/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 June 2002 on financial collateral arrangements (OJ L 168, 27.6.2002, p. 43). for at least 50 % of its amount; (f) the collateral backing the guarantee fulfils the requirements of Article 197 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, which, following appropriately conservative haircuts, is sufficient to cover the amount collateralised as referred to in point (e); (g) the collateral backing the guarantee is unencumbered and, in particular, is not used as collateral to back any other guarantee; (h) the collateral has an effective maturity that fulfils the same maturity condition as that referred to in Article 72c(1) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013; and (i) there are no legal, regulatory or operational barriers to the transfer of the collateral from the resolution entity to the relevant subsidiary, including where resolution action is taken in respect of the resolution entity. For the purposes of point (i) of the first subparagraph, at the request of the Board, the resolution entity shall provide an independent written and reasoned legal opinion or shall otherwise satisfactorily demonstrate that there are no legal, regulatory or operational barriers to the transfer of collateral from the resolution entity to the relevant subsidiary.
