Ah, I've got it! Surplus notes, that's the term for those hybrid instruments. I feel confident about this one - the description matches what I know about those types of financial products.

Wait, I'm not sure about this one. The wording is a bit tricky, and I don't want to just guess. I'll need to think it through step-by-step to make sure I understand the concept before selecting an answer.

Surplus notes, no doubt about it. Although, I'd love to know who comes up with these names. 'Surplus notes' sounds like something you'd find in the attic, not a financial instrument.
