Capital treatment of Credit-linked notes

As per Basel standard method (implicitly because I don't think it is there explicitely), what should be the capital treatment of the above?

1) The addition of the regulatory capital pertaining to the issuer and the underlying's, each one with its own weighting?

or

2) The regulatory capital resulting from the weighting of the lower-rated of the two?

or ???

Any trading book vs banking book consideration?

Thanks

John
