("Carador" or the "Company") 
Interim Management Report 
 
 
The following interim management statement relates to the period commencing 1 
January 2009 to 18 May 2009 and has been prepared solely to provide information 
to meet the requirements of the Irish Transparency Regulations. 
 
 
Investment objective 
 
 
The Company's investment objective is to produce attractive and stable returns, 
with low volatility compared to equity markets, by investing in a diversified 
portfolio of senior notes of collateralised debt obligations or "CDOs" 
collateralized by senior secured bank loans and equity and mezzanine tranches of 
CDOs. CDOs are debt securities backed by a diversified pool of underlying 
assets. The CDO uses the cash flows from this portfolio of assets to back the 
issuance of multiple classes of rated debt securities which, together with the 
Equity Notes, are used to fund the purchase of the underlying assets.

The April NAV includes an estimated EUR 1,276,830.62 of net cash flow interest 
received in the month (to be allocated between capital and income), which 
equates to EUR 0.0090 or USD 0.0119 per Share (4). 
 
 
The reduction in NAV in the period reflects the updated estimates of cash flows 
for the underlying investments which, for certain transactions, have been 
reduced to reflect the potential for cash flow diversion due to breaches in the 
overcollateralization tests. 
 
 
The Board declared an interim distribution on 15 January 2009 of EUR0.0015 per 
ordinary share in respect of the quarterly period ended 31 December 2008. US 
dollar class shareholders received US$0.0019 per share, calculated at the 
prevailing exchange rate on 15 January 2008 of EUR1:US$1.3064.

Investment manager's review 
 
 
Leveraged Loans 
The leveraged loan market has had a very strong performance in the four months 
ended 30 April 2009. The CS Leveraged Loan Index generated a 15.75% YTD 
return(5) versus -22.93% in 4Q08, outperforming investment grade bonds (Credit 
Suisse Liquid US Corporate Index +2.74%), equities (S&P500 -2.49%) and only 
marginally underperforming the high yield bond market (CS High Yield Index 
+16.48%). 
 
 
The top performing US leveraged loan industry sectors YTD have been food and 
drugs (+30.22%), transportation (+24.72%) and retail (+24.69%). The worst 
performing sectors, although still generating positive returns, were chemicals 
(+1.50%), manufacturing (+4.63%) and consumer durables (+5.54%) (6). 
 
 
The performance has been led by the higher quality rating groups with B rated 
loans returning +20.31% and BB rated loans returning +17.14%. Returns from 
distressed loans (CC, C and default) were negative YTD (-1.82%). 
 
 
The discount margin for the CS Leveraged Loan Index, assuming a 3-year average 
life, tightened from +1842 bps on 31 December 2008 to +1299 bps on 30 April 
2009.

and the S&P500 Index(7).

Firmer technical conditions, improved broader markets and better than expected 
earning reports from large leveraged issuers have helped support loan prices in 
2009. New issues and liquidation activity is a fraction of last year's. 
Repayments have also increased to $24.6 billion YTD. This reduction in supply 
has taken place as demand has increased, with part of this additional demand 
coming from non traditional buyers such as high yield bond and equity funds. 
 
 
The trailing 12-month institutional leveraged US loan default rate stands at 
6.66%(8). Sixty-six companies defaulted in the first four months of 2009(9), 
with $39 billion worth of loans outstanding. As a comparison, sixteen companies 
defaulted in the last four months of 2008, with $12 billion worth of loans 
outstanding. In Europe, we estimate that 23 companies defaulted in 2009 YTD, 
versus 10 companies in the last four months of 2008. 
 
 
Carador's 12 month lagging default rate to 30 April 2009 (latest available 
trustee information) was estimated at 4.22%. Since inception, Carador's default 
rate has been 4.52% (1.45% annualised). 
 
 
CLOs 
 
 
The CLO market has not participated in the loan market rally in 2009. Although 
secondary market levels are difficult to source, we estimate that the more 
liquid senior part of the capital structure widened by 200-300 bps YTD, to 
Libor+700/800 bps. Mezzanine CLO tranches have underperformed. A positive sign, 
however, has been the beginning of a differentiating trend between CLOs backed 
by stronger portfolios with solid structural features and legal documentation, 
and weaker transactions. 
 
 
The key event in 2009 was the change in the rating methodology for CLOs 
announced by S&P and Moody's. Moody's announced early in February that it will 
update its assumptions that it uses to rate and monitor CLOs. Specifically, 
Moody's updated its default probability assumptions to "reflect the 
significantly elevated corporate default rate expectations stemming from the 
global recession and tightened credit conditions". Moody's expects that the 
revised assumptions will have a significant impact on mezzanine and junior CLO 
tranches, resulting in a downgrade of their ratings by three to six notches on 
average but that the impact on senior CLO tranches is expected to be small. 
 
 
CLOs with large buckets for "structured finance" securities, ie, other CLO 
tranches, are likely to be affected from a rating and fundamental performance 
perspective. The structured finance buckets tend to be concentrated on the lower 
rated tranches of other CLOs (BB/BBB) given their spread constraints so 
downgrades are likely to bring them down to CCC, increasing their CCC buckets 
and bringing them closer to over-collateralization ("OC") test triggers and 
potential cash flow diversion. Fundamentally, these investments in other CLO 
tranches have the potential to become payment in kind securities, reducing the 
cash available for interest payments. In addition, the potential overlap between 
the portfolios of the top level CLO and its investments in other CLOs further 
increases the risk of cash flow diversions should broadly held loans be 
downgraded or default. 
 
 
Moody's placed 3,600 tranches of USD 100bn notional from 760 deals on review for 
possible downgrade. Moody's first stage will be to apply a "parameter" based 
approach taking into account the new methodology and assumptions which was 
scheduled to be completed before the end of March. The second stage, to be 
completed before the end of June, will be more comprehensive and deal specific. 
We expect significant downgrades of mezzanine tranches. Senior AAA tranches are 
not expected to be affected although specific transactions, with large CCC 
concentrations, tight OC tests or large exposure to debt issued by other CLOs 
could see downgrades. 
 
 
Early in March the first results of the changes were released, with the 
downgrade of 361 tranches issued by 122 CLOs. Most downgrades (284, 79.11% of 
the sample) were downgraded between 4 and 5 notches. 50 tranches (13.93%) were 
downgraded 6 notches. 24 tranches (6.69%) tranches were downgraded by 7 notches. 
4 of which were originally investment grade. 1 tranche (0.28%) was downgraded 8 
notches, from Ba1 to Caa3. 
 
 
The key changes to S&P rating assumptions included an increase in the 10-year 
probability of default for BB and B rated loans, the revision of the recovery 
rate in a "AAA" rating stress scenarios for senior secured loans, more stringent 
notching of issuer ratings with credits on "creditwatch" negative, and increases 
in inter-sector and intra-sector correlation assumptions. S&P has also modified 
other aspects of its CDO Evaluator Simulation Model and has included an 
"out-the-default-model" test which forces 100% default on the largest industry 
sector with no recovery rate requiring that the credit subordination of the AAA 
tranche must be greater than the largest industry concentration. This is 
expected to particularly affect CLOs backed by Small and Medium Enterprises 
(SME) loans which tend to have greater concentration to one industry. S&P stated 
that the effect of the change could imply that 75% of "super-senior" AAA could 
be downgraded to AA, 72% of AAA to A (and 12% to BBB), and 70% of A rated CLO 
notes could be downgraded to BB or below. 
 
 
The effect in the secondary market of the downgrades is not yet clear since many 
investment grade CLO tranches remain rated Baa3 or above. It is unlikely that 
holders of junior tranches will become forced sellers as their portfolios are 
mainly not rating constrained. For A and AA rated tranches the position is 
different as these are mainly held by banks and insurance companies. Downgrades 
could lead to an increase in regulatory capital which will be punitive. For 
example an eight notch downgrade from single A to single B level (within Moody's 
possible scenarios) would force a bank which had adopted Basel II to increase 
reserves 25 times from 4% of the notional to 100%. Banks under Basel I would 
have to increase capital reserves 12.5 times (10). The real impact of capital 
requirements would be felt if super-senior AAA paper were to be downgraded. 
Citibank estimates that $300 billion of CLO AAA paper may be held by banks. 
 
 
Despite these changes, the technical underpining of the CLO market was stronger 
in April. Several "Offer Wanted in Competition" ("OWIC") lists were circulated, 
a welcomed change from "Bid Wanted in Competition" ("BWIC") liquidation lists we 
had grown familiar with in the recent past. 
 
 
The liquidation of the Whistlejacket SIV was a key event, with investors 
purchasing about half of the $5 billion portfolio. The broadly syndicated CLO 
component of the liquidation (AAA) reportedly traded in the 70s(11). 
 
 
As discussed above, the potential selling pressure from banks concerned about 
rating downgrades and capital charges has yet to materialize and the market is 
gaining comfort about the banks' ability to keep the assets within their balance 
sheets. 
 
 
Another positive factor is the significant discrepancy between the value of the 
CLO portfolios and the value of the CLO liabilities generated as a result of the 
rally in loan prices. This is particularly relevant for the senior tranches of 
CLOs. Using as an example a generic CLO structure, the AAA CLO debt typically 
represents 70% of the capital structure, and is backed by loans, which as of 30 
April 2009, have an average price of 70.73c(12). If the AAA CLO note is 
purchased at a price of 80c, the implied asset coverage would be 1.3x ($70.73c 
market value of the loans over $56c market value of the AAA CLO note). The AAA 
CLO note is also protected by the fact that the interest due to mezzanine notes 
(subordinated to the AAA/AA Notes) can be "paid in kind", redirecting cash flows 
to the early amortization of the AAA CLO tranche should certain loan to value 
tests be triggered. 
 
 
 
 
Carador overview: 
 
 
Carador acquired one new investment in the period 1 January 2009 to 30 April 
2009. The Company purchased the A2 tranche (AAA rated) of GECLT 06-2, a CLO 
backed by a portfolio of senior secured loans serviced by GE Capital Loan 
Services. This transaction was purchased at a discount to par and, given its 
structure, has started to repay principal in this tranche at par. Since it was 
purchased, the tranche's principal factor has decreased from 88.99% to 63.42%, 
generating a capital gain for the Company equivalent to the value of the par 
less the discounted purchase price. 
 
 
As at 30 April 2009, 4 investments in the Carador portfolio, representing 3.03% 
of NAV had temporarily diverted cash flows to cure OC tests. One investment, 
representing 0.00% of NAV had been declared in default.

About Carador plc: 
 
 
Carador is a close-ended limited liability investment company which was 
incorporated under the laws of Ireland on 20 February 2006 and is authorised by 
the Irish Financial Services Regulatory Authority. It was the first London Stock 
Exchange traded diversified cash flow CDO fund. The Company's investment 
objective is to produce attractive and stable returns, with low volatility 
compared to equity markets, by investing in a diversified portfolio of senior 
notes of collateralised debt obligations or "CDOs" collateralized by senior 
secured bank loans and equity and mezzanine tranches of CDOs. 
 
 
Further information relating to Carador, including monthly factsheets published 
since inception, can be found at the Company's website on www.carador.co.uk. 
However, due to applicable securities laws and regulations, this information is 
only availably to persons resident in certain jurisdictions.

[7] The volatility of the indices reflected above and elsewhere in this report 
may be materially different from that of the performance of Carador. In 
particular, Carador does not have direct exposure to leveraged loans, but rather 
its exposure comes through its ownership of CLO securities. In addition, these 
indices employ different investment guidelines and criteria than Carador; as a 
result, Carador's exposure to leveraged loans may differ significantly from the 
securities or other assets that comprise the indices. The performance of these 
indices has not been selected to represent an appropriate benchmark to compare 
to the performance of Carador, but rather is disclosed to allow for comparison 
of the performance of Carador to that of well known, relevant indices. A summary 
of the investment guidelines of these indices is available upon request.
