II – Where a subsidiary and a resolution entity are established in France and form part of the same resolution group, the resolution college may authorise the minimum requirement mentioned in I to be met in full or in part by means of a guarantee granted by the resolution entity. This guarantee must meet the following conditions:
1° It is granted for an amount equivalent to the amount of the requirement it replaces;

3° At least 50% of the amount is secured under a financial collateral arrangement as defined in Article L. 211-38;
4° The collateral attached to the guarantee meets the requirements set out in Article 197 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 mentioned above, in an amount which, after application of sufficiently prudent discounts, is sufficient to cover the guaranteed amount referred to in 3°;
5° The same collateral is not encumbered and, in particular, is not used to cover another guarantee;
6° The collateral has an effective maturity which complies with the same condition relating to maturity as that referred to in Article 72c(1) of the aforementioned Regulation (EU) No 575/2013;
7° There are no legal, regulatory or operational obstacles to the transfer of collateral from the resolution entity to the subsidiary concerned, including where the resolution entity is subject to a resolution measure. At the request of the resolution college, the resolution entity shall provide a written, independent and reasoned legal opinion or demonstrate by any other appropriate means the absence of such obstacles.
