defeasance escrow established in a remedial action for an issue of 
QZABs that meets the special rebate requirement under paragraph 
(h)(7)(ii)(C)(2) of this section, the QZAB issuer is treated as 
ineligible for the small issuer exception to arbitrage rebate under 
section 148(f)(4)(D) and paragraph (i)(5) of this section and 
compliance with that special rebate requirement is treated as 
satisfying applicable arbitrage investment restrictions under section 
148 for that defeasance escrow.
