Trust I Securities-Backed Series 2003-9 Trust." The Certificates evidencing
certain undivided ownership interests therein shall be known as "Corporate
Backed Trust Certificates, CIT Capital Trust I Securities-Backed Series
2003-9." The Certificates shall consist of the Class A-1 Certificates and the
Class A-2 Certificates (together, the "Certificates").

     (a) The Class A-1 Certificates shall be held through the Depository in
book-entry form and shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A-1. The Class A-2A Certificates and the Class A-2B Certificates shall
initially be held through the Depository in book-entry form and, as set forth
in Section 3(e) below, shall be held in physical form or through the
Depository in book-entry form and shall be substantially in the forms attached
hereto as Exhibit A-2A and Exhibit A-2B. The Class A-1 Certificates shall be
issued in denominations of $25. The Class A-2A Certificates and the Class A-2B
Certificates shall be issued in minimum notional denominations of $100,000 and
integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. Except as provided in the Standard
Terms and in paragraph (d) in this Section, the Trust shall not issue
additional Certificates or incur any indebtedness.

     (b) The Class A-1 Certificates consist of 1,000,000 Certificates having
an initial aggregate certificate principal amount (the "Certificate Principal
Balance") of $25,000,000. The Class A-2A Certificates are interest-only
Certificates and shall have an initial aggregate notional



                                      8
<PAGE>

amount equal to the principal amount of Underlying Securities held by the
Trust. The Class A-2B Certificates are interest-only Certificates and shall
have an initial aggregate notional amount equal to the principal amount of
Underlying Securities held by the Trust.

     (c) The holders of the Class A-1 Certificates will be entitled to receive
on each Distribution Date the interest, if any, received on the Underlying
Securities, to the extent necessary to pay interest at a rate of 6.75% per
annum on the outstanding Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-1
Certificates. The holders of the Class A-2A Certificates will be entitled to
receive on each Distribution Date occurring on or prior to the Final Scheduled
A-2A Distribution Date, the interest, if any, received on the Underlying
Securities, to the extent necessary to pay interest at a rate of 0.95% per
annum on the outstanding notional amount of the Class A-2A Certificates, which
notional amount shall be equal to the outstanding principal amount of
Underlying Securities held by the Trust. The holders of the Class A-2B
Certificates will be entitled to receive on each Distribution Date subsequent
to the Final Schedule A-2A Distribution Date, the interest, if any, received
on the Underlying Securities, to the extent necessary to pay interest at a
rate of 0.95% per annum on the outstanding notional amount of the Class A-2B
Certificates, which notional amount shall be equal to the outstanding
principal amount of Underlying Securities held by the Trust. On the
Distribution Date occurring in August 2003, the Trustee shall cause the Trust
to pay to the Depositor the amount of interest accrued and paid on the
Underlying Securities from February 15, 2003, to but not including the Closing
Date; provided, however, that in the event an Optional Exchange Date shall
occur prior to the Distribution Date in August 2003, a pro rata portion of
such amount shall be paid to the Depositor on the Optional Exchange Date in
accordance with the provisions of Section 7(b)(ix) hereof. If the Depositor is
not paid any such amount on such date, it shall have a claim for such amount.
If Available Funds are insufficient to pay such amount, the Trustee will pay
the Depositor its pro rata share, based on the ratio the amount owed to the
Depositor bears to all amounts owed on the Certificates in respect of accrued
interest, of any proceeds from the recovery on the Underlying Securities.

     (d) The Depositor may sell to the Trustee additional Underlying
Securities on any date hereafter upon at least 3 Business Days' notice to the
Trustee (or such shorter period as shall be mutually satisfactory to the
Depositor and the Trustee) and upon (i) satisfaction of the Rating Agency
Condition and (ii) delivery of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the
sale of such additional Underlying Securities will not cause the Trust to be
taxed as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a
corporation for federal income tax purposes. Each condition to be satisfied
with respect to a sale of Underlying Securities on or prior to the Closing
Date shall be satisfied with respect to a sale of additional Underlying
Securities no later than the date of sale thereof, each representation and
warranty set forth in the Standard Terms to be made on the Closing Date shall
be made on such date of sale, and from and after such date of sale, all
Underlying Securities held by the Trustee shall be held on the same terms and
conditions. Upon such sale to the Trustee, the Trustee shall deposit such
additional Underlying Securities in the Certificate Account, and shall
authenticate and deliver to the Depositor, on its order, Class A-1
Certificates in a Certificate Principal Balance, Class A-2A Certificates in a
notional amount, and Class A-2B Certificates in a notional amount, equal to

passu with the corresponding classes of Certificates previously issued in
accordance with this Series Supplement.

     (e) No Class A-2 Certificate may be offered, resold, assigned or
otherwise transferred (including by pledge or hypothecation) at any time prior
to (x) the date which is two years or such shorter period of time as permitted
by Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act after the later of the original issue
date of such Class A-2 Certificates and the last date on which the Depositor
or any "affiliate" (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the
Depositor was the owner of such Class A-2 Certificates (or any predecessor
thereto) or (y) such later date, if any, as may be required by a change in
applicable securities laws (the "Resale Restriction Termination Date") unless
such offer, resale, assignment or transfer is (i) to the Trust, (ii) pursuant
to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, (iii) to a
qualified institutional buyer (a "QIB"), as such term is defined in Rule 144A
promulgated under the Securities Act ("Rule 144A"), in accordance with Rule
144A or (iv) pursuant to another available exemption from registration
provided under the Securities Act (including transfers to Accredited
Investors), and, in each of cases (i) through (iv), in accordance with any
applicable securities laws of any state of the United States and other
jurisdictions. Prior to any offer, resale, assignment or transfer of any Class
A-2 Certificates in the manner described in clause (iii) above, the
prospective transferee and the prospective transferor shall be required to
deliver to the Trustee an executed copy of an Investment Letter with respect
to the Class A-2 Certificates to be transferred substantially in the form of
Exhibit B hereto and in the event the resale, assignment or transfer shall
involve Class A-2 Certificates then being held in physical form, such A-2
Certificates shall be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation and the
Trustee shall instruct the Depository to increase the aggregate notional
amount of the Class A-2 Certificates held in book-entry form by an amount
equal to the aggregate notional amount of Class A-2 Certificates so resold,
assigned or transferred and to issue a beneficial interest in such global
Class A-2 Certificates to such transferee. Prior to any offer, resale,
assignment or transfer of any Class A-2 Certificates in the manner described
in clause (iv) above, the prospective transferee and the prospective
transferor shall be required to deliver to the Trustee documentation
certifying that the offer, resale, assignment or transfer complies with the
provisions of said clause (iv) and, in the event any such Class A-2
Certificate shall then be held in book-entry form and such resale, assignment
or transfer shall be to an Accredited Investor that is not a QIB, the Trustee
shall instruct the Depository to decrease the aggregate notional amount of the
Class A-2 Certificates held in book-entry form and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver one or more Class A-2 Certificates in physical form
in an aggregate notional amount equal to the amount of Class A-2 Certificates
resold, assigned or transferred. In addition to the foregoing, each
prospective transferee of any Class A-2 Certificates in the manner
contemplated by clause (iii) above shall acknowledge, represent and agree as
follows:

     (1)  The transferee (x) is a QIB, (y) is aware that the sale to it is
          being made in reliance on Rule 144A and (z) is acquiring such Class
          A-2 Certificates for its own account or for the account of a QIB.

     (2)  The transferee understands that the Class A-2 Certificates are being
          offered in a transaction not involving any public offering in the
          United States within the meaning of the Securities Act, and that the
          Class A-2 Certificates have not been and will not be registered
          under the Securities Act.


                                      10

     (3)  The transferee agrees that (A) if in the future it decides to offer,
          resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Class A-2 Certificates
          prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, such Class A-2
          Certificates shall only be offered, resold, assigned or otherwise
          transferred (i) to the Trust, (ii) pursuant to an effective
          registration statement under the Securities Act, (iii) to a QIB, in
          accordance with Rule 144A or (iv) pursuant to another available
          exemption from registration provided under the Securities Act
          (including any transfer to an Accredited Investor), and, in each of
          cases (i) through (iv), in accordance with any applicable securities
          laws of any state of the United States and other jurisdictions and
          (B) the transferee will, and each subsequent holder is required to,
          notify any subsequent purchaser of such Class A-2 Certificates from
          it of the resale restrictions referred to in clause (A) above.

     (f) The Class A-2 Certificates will, unless otherwise agreed by the
Depositor and the Trustee, bear a legend substantially to the following
effect:

          "THIS CLASS A-2 CERTIFICATE (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) HAS NOT BEEN
          REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT
          BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT WHILE A
          REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT IS IN EFFECT OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION
          THEREFROM UNDER SUCH ACT. THE CLASS A-2 CERTIFICATE REPRESENTED
          HEREBY MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THE
          SERIES SUPPLEMENT.

          EACH PURCHASER OF THIS CLASS A-2 CERTIFICATE IS HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT
          THE SELLER OF THIS CLASS A-2 CERTIFICATE MAY BE RELYING ON THE
          EXEMPTION FROM THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5 OF THE SECURITIES ACT
          PROVIDED BY RULE 144A THEREUNDER."

     Section 4. Trust Certificates. The Trustee hereby acknowledges receipt,
on or prior to the Closing Date, of:

     (a) the Underlying Securities set forth on Schedule I hereto; and

     (b) all documents required to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to
Section 2.01 of the Standard Terms.

     Section 5. Distributions.

     (a) Except as otherwise provided in Sections 3(c), 5(c), 5(d) and 5(i),
on each applicable Distribution Date (or such later date as specified in
Section 9(f)), the Trustee shall apply Available Funds in the Certificate
Account as follows:


                                      11
<PAGE>


     (i) The Trustee will pay the interest portion of Available Funds:

          (1) on each Distribution Date occurring on or prior to the Final
     Scheduled A-2A Distribution Date:

               (A) first, to the Trustee, as reimbursement for any remaining
               Extraordinary Trust Expenses incurred by the Trustee in
               accordance with Section 6(b) below and approved by 100% of the
               Certificateholders; and

               (B) second, to the holders of the Class A-1 Certificates and
               the holders of the Class A-2A Certificates, interest accrued
               and unpaid on each such class, pro rata in proportion to their
               entitlements thereto.

          (2) on each Distribution Date occurring after the Final Scheduled
     A-2A Distribution Date:

               (A) first, to the Trustee, reimbursement for any remaining
               Extraordinary Trust Expenses incurred by the Trustee in
               accordance with Section 6(b) below and approved by 100% of the
               Certificateholders; and

               (B) second, to the holders of the Class A-1 Certificates and
               the holders of the Class A-2B Certificates, interest accrued
               and unpaid on each such Class, pro rata in proportion to their
               entitlements thereto.

     (ii) the Trustee will pay the principal portion of Available Funds:

          (1) first, to the Trustee, as reimbursement for any remaining
     Extraordinary Trust Expenses incurred by the Trustee in accordance with
     Section 6(b) below and approved by 100% of the Certificateholders; and

          (2) second, to the holders of the Class A-1 Certificates, the
     Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-1 Certificates (the Class
     A-2 Certificates are not entitled to distributions of principal).

     (iii) any Available Funds remaining in the Certificate Account after the
payments set forth in clauses 5(a)(i) and 5(a)(ii) above shall be paid to the
Trustee as reasonable compensation for services rendered to the Depositor, up
to $1,000.

     (iv) the Trustee will pay any Available Funds remaining in the
Certificate Account after the distributions in clauses 5(a)(i) through
5(a)(iii) above to the holders of the Class A-1 Certificates and Class A-2
Certificates pro rata in proportion to the interest rate on each such class of
Certificates; provided that any amount to be distributed to the Class A-2
Certificates shall be distributed as between the Class A-2A Certificates and
the


                                      12
<PAGE>


     Class A-2B Certificates, pro rata in the proportion of the ratio of the
     Class A-2A Allocation to the Class A-2B Allocation.

Any portion of the Available Funds (i) that does not constitute principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on, the Underlying Securities, (ii) that is not
received in connection with a tender offer, redemption, prepayment or
liquidation of the Underlying Securities and (iii) for which allocation by the
Trustee is not otherwise contemplated by this Series Supplement, shall be
remitted by the Trustee to the Depositor.

     (b) Pursuant to the provisions of the Underlying Securities Trust
Agreement, the Underlying Securities Issuer may defer payment of interest on
the Underlying Securities at any time or from time to time for a period not
exceeding ten consecutive semi-annual interest periods (each, an "Extension
Period") with respect to each Extension Period, provided that no such
Extension Period may extend beyond the Final Scheduled Distribution Date. At
the end of any such Extension Period, the Underlying Securities Issuer will be
obligated to pay all interest then accrued an unpaid on the Underlying
Securities, together with interest thereon, compounded semi annually.

          Interest will continue to accrue on the Certificates during the
pendency of any Extension Period. Such interest will be distributed to
Certificateholders, to the extent received by the Trustee, upon the completion
of the related Extension Period in accordance with the provisions of Section
5(a)(i) hereof; provided that (x) any interest that accrues on and prior to
the Final Scheduled A-2A Distribution Date (together with any interest
thereon) shall be allocated in the manner set forth in Section 5(a)(i)(1)
hereof and (y) any interest that accrues subsequent to the Final Scheduled
A-2A Distribution Date (together with any interest thereon) shall be allocated
in the manner set forth in Section 5(a)(i)(2) hereof.

     (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Underlying Securities are
redeemed (including as a result of an optional redemption), prepaid or
liquidated in whole or in part for any reason other than due to the occurrence
of an Underlying Securities Event of Default, an SEC Reporting Failure, or at
the Final Scheduled Distribution Date, the Trustee shall apply Available Funds
in the manner described in Section 5(h) in the following order of priority:

          (i)  first, to the Trustee, as reimbursement for any Extraordinary
               Trust Expenses incurred by the Trustee in accordance with
               Section 6(b) below and approved by 100% of the
               Certificateholders;

          (ii) second, to the holders of the Class A-1 Certificates, an amount
               equal to the principal amount of Underlying Securities so
               redeemed, prepaid or liquidated plus accrued and unpaid
               interest on the amount of Class A-1 Certificates so redeemed;

         (iii) third, to the holders of the Class A-2A Certificates, an
               amount, if any, not to exceed the present value of all amounts
               that would otherwise have been payable on the Class A-2A
               Certificates for the period from the date of such redemption or
               prepayment to the Final Scheduled Distribution Date using a
               discount rate of 6.90% per annum, assuming no delinquencies,
               deferrals, redemptions or prepayments on the Underlying
               Securities;


                                      13
<PAGE>


          (iv) fourth, to the holders of the Class A-2B Certificates, an
               amount, if any, not to exceed the present value of all amounts
               that would otherwise have been payable on the Class A-2B
               Certificates for the period from the date of such redemption or
               prepayment to the Final Scheduled Distribution Date using a
               discount rate of 6.90% per annum, assuming no delinquencies,
               deferrals, redemptions or prepayments on the Underlying
               Securities;

          (v)  fifth, to the Trustee, as reasonable compensation for services
               rendered to the Depositor, any remainder up to $1,000; and

          (vi) sixth, any remainder to the holders of the Class A-1
               Certificates and the Class A-2 Certificates pro rata in
               proportion to the ratio of the Class A-1 Allocation to the
               Class A-2 Allocation; provided that any amount to be
               distributed to the Class A-2 Certificates shall be distributed
               as between the Class A-2A Certificates and the Class A-2B
               Certificates, pro rata in the proportion of the ratio of the
               Class A-2A Allocation to the Class A-2B Allocation.

     (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Underlying Securities are
redeemed, prepaid or liquidated in whole or in part due to the occurrence of
an Underlying Securities Event of Default, the Trustee shall distribute
Available Funds to the holders of the Class A-1 Certificates and the holders
of the Class A-2 Certificates within two Business Days of receipt in
accordance with the ratio of the Class A-1 Allocation to the Class A-2
Allocation and the distribution to the holders of the Class A-2 Certificates
shall further be determined as between the holders of the Class A-2A
Certificates and the Class A-2B Certificates, pro rata in the proportion of
the ratio of the Class A-2A Allocation to the Class A-2B Allocation.

     (e) Unless otherwise instructed by holders of Certificates representing a
majority of the Voting Rights, thirty (30) days after giving notice pursuant
to Section 8 hereof, the Trustee shall sell the Underlying Securities pursuant
to Section 13 hereof and deposit the Liquidation Proceeds, if any, into the
Certificate Account for distribution not later than two (2) Business Days
after the receipt of immediately available funds in accordance with Section
5(d) hereof.

     (f) If the Trustee receives non-cash property in respect of the
Underlying Securities as a result of a payment default on the Underlying
Securities (including from the sale thereof), the Trustee will promptly give
notice to the Depository, or for any Certificates which are not then held by
DTC or any other depository, directly to the registered holders of the
Certificates then outstanding and unpaid. Such notice shall state that the
Trustee shall and the Trustee shall, not later than 30 days after the receipt
of such property, allocate and distribute such property to the holders of
Class A-1 Certificates and Class A-2 Certificates then outstanding and unpaid
(after deducting the costs incurred in connection therewith) in accordance
with Section 5(d) hereof. Property other than cash will be liquidated by the
Trustee, and the proceeds thereof distributed in cash, only to the extent
necessary to avoid distribution of fractional securities to
Certificateholders. In-kind distribution of such property to
Certificateholders, based on the market value of such property as of the date
of distribution to Certificateholders, will be deemed to reduce the
Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-1 Certificates on a
dollar-for-dollar basis. The outstanding notional amounts of the Class A-2A
Certificates and Class A-2B


                                      14
<PAGE>


Certificates shall be reduced, pro rata among all Class A-2A
Certificateholders and Class A-2B Certificateholders, by an amount equal to
the amount by which the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-1
Certificates is reduced.

     (g) Subject to Section 9(f) hereof, to the extent Available Funds are
insufficient to make any scheduled interest or principal payments on any class
of Certificates on any Distribution Date, any shortfall will be carried over
and will be distributed on the next Distribution Date (or date referred to in
Section 5(h) hereof) on which sufficient funds are available to pay such
shortfall.

     (h) If a payment with respect to the Underlying Securities is made to the
Trustee (i) after the payment date of the Underlying Securities on which such
payment was due or (ii) in connection with redemption, prepayment or
liquidation, in whole or in part, of the Underlying Securities for any reason
(including a Special Event) other than due to the occurrence of an Underlying
Securities Event of Default, an SEC Reporting Failure or at their maturity,
the Trustee will distribute any such amounts received in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 5 on the next occurring Business Day (a "Special
Distribution Date") as if the funds had constituted Available Funds on the
Distribution Date immediately preceding such Special Distribution Date;
provided, however, that the Record Date for such Special Distribution Date
shall be the Business Day prior to the day on which the related payment was
received from the Underlying Securities Property Trustee.

     (i) Notwithstanding Section 3.12 of the Standard Terms, if CIT Holdings
Inc. ceases to file periodic reports as required under the Exchange Act, the
Depositor shall within a reasonable time instruct the Trustee to sell the
Underlying Securities and distribute the proceeds of such sale to the
Certificateholders within two Business Days of receipt in accordance with the
following order of priority: first, to the Trustee, as reimbursement for any
Extraordinary Trust Expenses incurred by the Trustee in accordance with
Section 6(b) below and approved by 100% of the Certificateholders; and second,
any remainder to the holders of the Class A-1 Certificates and the Class A-2
Certificates pro rata in proportion to the ratio of the Class A-1 Allocation
to the Class A-2 Allocation, as determined by the Calculation Agent; provided,
however, the Depositor shall not instruct the Trustee to distribute or sell
the Underlying Securities pursuant to this clause unless CIT Holdings Inc. has
either (x) stated in writing that it intends permanently to cease filing
reports required under the Exchange Act or (y) failed to file any required
reports for one full calendar year (an "SEC Reporting Failure"); provided,
further, however, that any amount distributable to the Class A-2
Certificateholders in accordance with this Section shall be allocated as
between the holders of the Class A-2A Certificates and the Class A-2B
Certificates, on a pro rata basis, in the proportion of the ratio of the Class
A-2A Allocation to the Class A-2B Allocation.

     (j) On any date on which Underlying Securities are redeemed, prepaid or
liquidated for any reason, the aggregate outstanding notional amount of the
Class A-2A Certificates and the aggregate outstanding notional amount of the
Class A-2B Certificates shall each be reduced by an amount equal to the
principal amount of the Underlying Securities so redeemed, prepaid or
liquidated, the reduction for the Class A-2A Certificates to be allocated pro
rata among all Class A-2A Certificates and the reduction for the Class A-2B
Certificates to be allocated pro rata among all Class A-2B Certificates.

     Section 6. Trustee's Fees.

     (a) As compensation for its services hereunder, the Trustee shall be
entitled to the Trustee Fee and any amounts payable under clauses 5(a)(iii)
and 5(b)(iv) above. The Trustee Fee shall be paid by the Depositor and not
from Trust Property. The Trustee shall bear all Ordinary Expenses. Failure by
the Depositor to pay such amount shall not entitle the Trustee to any payment
or reimbursement from the Trust, nor shall such failure release the Trustee
from the duties it is required to perform under the Trust Agreement.

     (b) Extraordinary Expenses shall not be paid out of the Trust Property
unless all the holders of the Class A-1 Certificates and Class A-2
Certificates then outstanding have directed the Trustee to incur such
Extraordinary Expenses. The Trustee may incur other Extraordinary Expenses if
any lesser percentage of the Certificateholders requesting such action
pursuant hereto reimburse the Trustee for the cost thereof from their own
funds in advance. If Extraordinary Expenses are not approved unanimously as
set forth in the first sentence of this Section 6(b), such Extraordinary
Expenses shall not be an obligation of the Trust, and the Trustee shall not
file any claim against the Trust therefor notwithstanding failure of
Certificateholders to reimburse the Trustee.

     Section 7. Optional Exchange.

     (a) On any Distribution Date, any holder of Class A-1 Certificates, Class
A-2A Certificates and Class A-2B Certificates may exchange such Certificates
for a distribution of Underlying Securities representing the same percentage
of the Underlying Securities as such Certificates represent of all outstanding
Certificates.

     (b) The following conditions shall apply to any Optional Exchange.

          (i) A notice specifying the number of Certificates being surrendered
     and the Optional Exchange Date shall be delivered to the Trustee no less
     than 5 days (or such shorter period acceptable to the Trustee) but not
     more than 30 days before the Optional Exchange Date.

          (ii) Certificates shall be surrendered to the Trustee no later than
     10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Optional Exchange Date.

          (iii) Class A-1 Certificates, Class A-2A Certificates and Class A-2B
     Certificates representing a like percentage of all Class A-1
     Certificates, Class A-2A Certificates and Class A-2B Certificates shall
     be surrendered.

          (iv) The Trustee shall have received an opinion of counsel stating
     that the Optional Exchange would not cause the Trust to be treated as an
     association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for
     federal income tax purposes.

          (v) If the Certificateholder is the Depositor or any Affiliate of
     the Depositor, (1) the Trustee shall have received a certification from
     the Certificateholder that any Certificates being surrendered have been
     held for at least six months, and (2) the Certificates being surrendered
     may represent no more than 5% (or 25% in the case of


                                      16
<PAGE>


     Certificates acquired by the Underwriters but never distributed to
     investors) of the then outstanding Certificates.

          (vi) The Trustee shall not be obligated to determine whether an
     Optional Exchange complies with the applicable provisions for exemption
     under Rule 3a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the
     rules or regulations promulgated thereunder.

          (vii) The provisions of Section 4.07 of the Standard Terms shall not
     apply to an Optional Exchange pursuant to this Section 7(b). This Section
     7(b) shall not provide any person with a lien against, an interest in or
     a right to specific performance with respect to the Underlying
     Securities; provided that satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
     this Section 7(b) shall entitle the related Certificateholder to a
     distribution thereof.

          (viii) The aggregate principal amount of Certificates exchanged in
     connection with any Optional Exchange pursuant to this Section shall be
     in an amount that will entitle the Certificateholders thereof to
     Underlying Securities in an even multiple of the minimum denomination of
     such Underlying Securities.

          (ix) In the event such Optional Exchange shall occur prior to the
     Distribution Date in August 2003, the Certificateholders shall have paid
     to the Trustee, for distribution to the Depositor, on the Optional
     Exchange Date an amount equal to the sum obtained by multiplying the
     amount of accrued interest on the Underlying Securities from February 15,
     2003 through, but excluding, the Closing Date by a fraction, the
     numerator of which shall be the number of Certificates being exchanged on
     such Optional Exchange Date and the denominator of which shall be the
     total number of Certificates.

     Section 8. Notices of Events of Default.

          As promptly as practicable after, and in any event within 30 days
after, the occurrence of any Event of Default actually known to the Trustee,
the Trustee shall give notice of such Event of Default to the Depository, or,
if any Certificates are not then held by DTC or any other depository, directly
to the registered holders of such Certificates. However, except in the case of
an Event of Default relating to the payment of principal of or interest on any
of the Underlying Securities, the Trustee will be protected in withholding
such notice if in good faith it determines that the withholding of such notice
is in the interest of the Certificateholders.

     Section 9. Miscellaneous.

     (a) The provisions of Section 4.04, Advances, of the Standard Terms shall
not apply to the CIT Capital Trust I Securities-Backed Series 2003-9
Certificates.

     (b) The provisions of Section 4.07, Optional Exchange, of the Standard
Terms shall not apply to the CIT Capital Trust I Securities-Backed Series
2003-9 Certificates.

     (c) The Trustee shall simultaneously forward reports to
Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.03 of the Standard Terms and to the
New York Stock Exchange.


                                      17
<PAGE>


     (d) Except as expressly provided herein, the Certificateholders shall not
be entitled to terminate the Trust or cause the sale or other disposition of
the Underlying Securities.

     (e) The provisions of Section 3.07(d) of the Standard Terms shall not
apply to the CIT Capital Trust I Securities-Backed Series 2003-9 Certificates.

     (f) If the Trustee has not received payment with respect to a Collection
Period on the Underlying Securities on or prior to the related Distribution
Date, such distribution will be made promptly upon receipt of such payment.
Subject to the provisions of Section 5(b) hereof, no additional amounts shall
accrue on the Certificates or be owed to Certificateholders as a result of
such delay; provided, however, that any additional interest owed and paid by
the Underlying Securities Issuer as a result of such delay shall be paid to
the Class A-1 Certificateholders and Class A-2 Certificateholders pro rata in
proportion to their respective entitlements to such delayed payments.

     (g) The outstanding principal balance of the Certificates shall not be
reduced by the amount of any Realized Losses (as defined in the Standard
Terms).

     (h) The Trust may not engage in any business or activities other than in
connection with, or relating to, the holding, protecting and preserving of the
Trust Property and the issuance of the Certificates, and other than those
required or authorized by the Trust Agreement or incidental and necessary to
accomplish such activities. The Trust may not issue or sell any certificates
or other obligations other than the Certificates or otherwise incur, assume or
guarantee any indebtedness for money borrowed. Notwithstanding Section 3.05 of
the Standard Terms, funds on deposit in the Certificate Account shall not be

     (q) Each of the representations, covenants and agreements made herein by
each of the Depositor and the Trustee are for the benefit of the
Certificateholders.

     (r) The provisions of Section 2.01(d)(iii) of the Standard Terms shall
not apply to the CIT Capital Trust I Securities-Backed Series 2003-9
Certificates and the following shall be deemed to be inserted in its place:

          "at the time of delivery of the Underlying Securities, the
Depositor owns such Underlying Securities, has the right to transfer its
interest in such Underlying Securities and such Underlying Securities are free
and clear of any lien, pledge, encumbrance, right, charge, claim or other
security interest; and"

     Section 10. Governing Law. THIS SERIES SUPPLEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS
DESCRIBED HEREIN SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED
WITHIN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CHOICE OF LAWS
PROVISIONS THEREOF.

     Section 11. Counterparts. This Series Supplement may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and
all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

     Section 12. Termination of the Trust. The Trust shall terminate upon the
earliest to occur of (i) the payment in full at maturity or sale by the Trust
after a payment default or an acceleration or other early payment of the
Underlying Securities and the distribution in full of all amounts due to the
Class A-1 Certificateholders and Class A-2 Certificateholders; (ii) the Final
Scheduled Distribution Date and (iii) the expiration of 21 years from the
death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late
Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date
hereof.

     Section 13. Sale of Underlying Securities. In the event of a sale of the
Underlying Securities pursuant to Section 5(e) hereof, the Trustee shall
solicit bids for the sale of the Underlying Securities with settlement thereof
on or before the third (3rd) Business Day after such sale from three leading
dealers in the relevant market. Any of the following dealers (or their
successors) shall be deemed to qualify as leading dealers: (1) Credit Suisse
First Boston Corporation, (2) Goldman, Sachs & Co., (3) Merrill Lynch, Pierce,
Fenner & Smith Incorporated, (4) UBS Warburg LLC, (5) Salomon Smith Barney
Inc., and (6) Lehman Brothers Inc. The Trustee shall not be responsible for
the failure to obtain a bid so long as it has made reasonable efforts to
obtain bids. If a bid for the sale of the Underlying Securities has been


                                      20
<PAGE>


accepted by the Trustee but the sale has failed to settle on the proposed
settlement date, the Trustee shall request new bids from such leading dealers.
In the event of an Optional Exchange, the Trustee shall only deliver the
Underlying Securities to the purchaser of such Underlying Securities or sell
the Underlying Securities pursuant to this Section 13, as the case may be,
against payment in same day funds deposited into the Certificate Account.

     Section 14. Amendments. Notwithstanding anything in the Trust Agreement
to the contrary, in addition to the other restrictions on modification and
amendment contained therein, the Trustee shall not enter into any amendment or
modification of the Trust Agreement which would adversely affect in any
material respect the interests of the holders of any class of Certificates
without the consent of the holders of 100% of such class of Certificates;
provided, however, that no such amendment or modification will be permitted
which would cause the Trust to be taxed as an association or publicly traded
partnership taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. Unless
otherwise agreed, the Trustee shall provide five Business Days written notice
to each Rating Agency before entering into any amendment or modification of
the Trust Agreement pursuant to this Section 14.

     Section 15. Voting of Underlying Securities, Modification of Underlying
Securities Trust Agreement.

     (a) The Trustee, as holder of the Underlying Securities, has the right to
vote and give consents and waivers in respect of the Underlying Securities as
permitted by the Depository and except as otherwise limited by the Trust
Agreement. In the event that the Trustee receives a request from the
Depository, the Underlying Securities Delaware Trustee, the Underlying
Securities Property Trustee, the Underlying Securities Administrative Trustee,
the Underlying Securities Issuer or any other authorized Person for its
consent to any amendment, modification or waiver of the Underlying Securities,
the Underlying Securities Trust Agreement or any other document thereunder or
relating thereto, or receives any other solicitation for any action with
respect to the Underlying Securities, the Trustee shall mail a notice of such
proposed amendment, modification, waiver or solicitation to each
Certificateholder of record as of such date. The Trustee shall request
instructions from the Certificateholders as to whether or not to consent to or
vote to accept such amendment, modification, waiver or solicitation. The
Trustee shall consent or vote, or refrain from consenting or voting, in the
same proportion (based on the relative outstanding Certificate Principal
Balances of the Class A-1 Certificates) as the Certificates of the Trust were
actually voted or not voted by the Certificateholders thereof as of a date
determined by the Trustee prior to the date on which such consent or vote is
required; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in the Trust
Agreement to the contrary, the Trustee shall at no time vote on or consent to
any matter (i) unless such vote or consent would not (based on an opinion of
counsel) cause the Trust to be taxed as an association or publicly traded
partnership taxable as a corporation under the Code, (ii) which would alter
the timing or amount of any payment on the Underlying Securities, including,
without limitation, any demand to accelerate the Underlying Securities, except
in the event of a default under the Underlying Securities or an event which
with the passage of time would become an event of default under the Underlying
Securities and with the unanimous consent of all outstanding Class A-1
Certificateholders and the Class A-2 Certificateholders, or (iii) which would
result in the exchange or substitution of any of the outstanding Underlying
Securities pursuant to a plan for the refunding or refinancing of such
Underlying Securities except in the event of a default under


                                      21
<PAGE>


the Underlying Securities Trust Agreement and only with the consent of
Certificateholders representing 100% of the Class A-1 Certificates and 100% of
the Class A-2 Certificates. The Trustee shall have no liability for any
failure to act resulting from Certificateholders' late return of, or failure
to return, directions requested by the Trustee from the Certificateholders.

     (b) In the event that an offer is made by the Underlying Securities
Issuer to issue new obligations in exchange and substitution for any of the
Underlying Securities, pursuant to a plan for the refunding or refinancing of
the outstanding Underlying Securities or any other offer is made for the
Underlying Securities, the Trustee shall notify the Class A-1
Certificateholders and Class A-2 Certificateholders of such offer promptly.
The Trustee must reject any such offer unless the Trustee is directed by the
affirmative vote of the holders of 100% of the Class A-1 Certificates and
Class A-2 Certificates to accept such offer and the Trustee has received the
tax opinion described above. If pursuant to the preceding sentence, the
Trustee accepts any such offer the Trustee shall promptly notify the Rating
Agencies.

     (c) If an event of default under the Underlying Securities Trust
Agreement occurs and is continuing, and if directed by a majority of the
outstanding Class A-1 Certificateholders and Class A-2 Certificateholders, the
Trustee shall vote the Underlying Securities in favor of directing, or take
such other action as may be appropriate to direct, the Underlying Securities
Trustee to declare the unpaid principal amount of the Underlying Securities
and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to be due and payable.

     Section 16. Additional Depositor Representation. It is the express intent
of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the Underlying Securities by the
Depositor to the Trustee be, and be construed as, a sale of the Underlying
Securities by the Depositor and not a pledge of any Underlying Securities by
the Depositor to secure a debt or other obligation of the Depositor. In the
event that, notwithstanding the aforementioned intent of the parties, any
Underlying Securities are held to be property of the Depositor, then, it is
the express intent of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of
such Underlying Securities and all proceeds thereof by the Depositor to the
Trustee to secure a debt or other obligation of the Depositor, pursuant to
Section 10.07 of the Standard Terms. In connection with any such grant of a
security interest in the Underlying Securities and all proceeds thereof
(including any such grant in connection with any sale of additional Underlying
Securities pursuant to Section 3(d)), the Depositor hereby represents and
warrants to Trustee as follows:

     (i)  In the event the Underlying Securities are held to be property of
          the Depositor, then the Trust Agreement creates a valid and
          continuing security interest (as defined in the Uniform Commercial
          Code as in effect in the applicable jurisdiction (the "UCC")) in the
          Underlying Securities in favor of the Trustee which security
          interest is prior to all other liens, and is enforceable as such as
          against creditors of, and purchasers from, the Depositor.

     (ii) The Underlying Securities have been credited to a trust account (the
          "Securities Account") established in the name of the Trustee in
          accordance with Section 2.01 of the Standard Terms. U.S. Bank Trust
          National Association, as securities intermediary (the "Securities
          Intermediary") has established the Securities


                                      22
<PAGE>


          Account and has agreed to treat the Underlying Securities as
          "financial assets" within the meaning of the UCC.

    (iii) Immediately prior to the transfer of the Underlying Securities to
          the Trust, the Depositor owned and had good and marketable title to
          the Underlying Securities free and clear of any lien, claim or
          encumbrance of any Person.

     (iv) The Depositor has received all consents and approvals required by
          the terms of the Underlying Securities to the transfer to the
          Trustee all of its interest and rights in the Underlying Securities
          as contemplated by the Trust Agreement.

     (v)  The Depositor has taken all steps necessary to cause the Securities
          Intermediary to identify on its records that the Trustee is the
          Person owning the security entitlements credited to the Securities
          Account.

     (vi) Other than the security interest granted to the Trust pursuant to
          this Agreement, the Depositor has not assigned, pledged, sold,
          granted a security interest in or otherwise conveyed any interest in
          the Underlying Securities (or, if any such interest has been
          assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered, it has been released).
          The Depositor has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of
          any financing statements against the Depositor that includes a
          description of the Underlying Securities other than any financing
          statement relating to the security interest granted to the Trust
          hereunder. The Depositor is not aware of any judgment or tax lien
          filings against the Depositor.

    (vii) The Securities Account is not in the name of any Person other than
          the Trustee. The Depositor has not consented to the compliance by
          the Securities Intermediary, with entitlement orders of any Person
          other than the Trustee.

                           (REVERSE OF CERTIFICATE)

          The Certificates are limited in right of distribution to certain
payments and collections respecting the Underlying Securities, all as more
specifically set forth herein and in the Trust Agreement. The registered
Holder hereof, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that it will look solely to
the Trust Property (to the extent of its rights therein) for distributions
hereunder.

          The Trust Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein
provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Depositor and the Trustee and the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Trust Agreement at any time by the Depositor and
the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Class A-1 Certificates in the
manner set forth in the Series Supplement and the Standard Terms. Any such
consent by the Holder of this Certificate (or any predecessor Certificate)
shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of
this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not a notation of such consent is
made upon this Certificate. The Trust Agreement also permits the amendment
thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders
of any of the Certificates.

          The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only in
denominations of $25.

          As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is

for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies of the Certificate
Registrar maintained by the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of
New York, duly endorsed by or accompanied by an assignment in the form below
and by such other documents as required by the Trust Agreement, and thereupon
one or more new Certificates of the same class in authorized denominations
evidencing the same principal amount will be issued to the designated
transferee or transferees. The initial Certificate Registrar appointed under
the Trust Agreement is U.S. Bank Trust National Association.

          No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Trustee may require exchange of a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with
any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

          The Depositor and the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor or the
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as
the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Depositor, the Trustee, nor
any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

          It is the intention of the parties to the Trust Agreement that the
Trust created thereunder shall constitute a fixed investment trust for federal
income tax purposes under Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-4, and the
Certificateholder agrees to treat the Trust, any distributions therefrom and
its beneficial interest in the Certificates consistently with such
characterization.

          The Trust and the obligations of the Depositor and the Trustee
created by the Trust Agreement with respect to the Certificates shall
terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) the payment in full at maturity or
sale by the Trust after a payment default on or an acceleration

expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants
of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late Ambassador of the United States to the Court of
St. James, living on the date hereof.

                           (REVERSE OF CERTIFICATE)

          The Certificates are limited in right of distribution to certain
payments and collections respecting the Underlying Securities, all as more
specifically set forth herein and in the Trust Agreement. The registered
Holder hereof, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that it will look solely to
the Trust Property (to the extent of its rights therein) for distributions
hereunder.

          The Trust Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein
provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Depositor and the Trustee and the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Trust Agreement at any time by the Depositor and
the Trustee with the consent of the holders of Class A-2 Certificates in the
manner set forth in the Series Supplement and the Standard Terms. Any such
consent by the Holder of this Certificate (or any predecessor Certificate)
shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of
this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is
made upon this Certificate. The Trust Agreement also permits the amendment
thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders
of any of the Certificates.

          The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only in
denominations of $100,000 and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof.

          As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is
registerable in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate
for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies of the Certificate
Registrar maintained by the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of
New York, duly endorsed by or accompanied by an assignment in the form below
and by such other documents as required by the Trust Agreement, and thereupon
one or more new Certificates of the same class in authorized denominations
evidencing the same notional amount will be issued to the designated
transferee or transferees. The initial Certificate Registrar appointed under
the Trust Agreement is U.S. Bank Trust National Association.

          No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Trustee may require exchange of a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with
any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

          The Depositor and the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor or the
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as
the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Depositor, the Trustee, nor
any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

          It is the intention of the parties to the Trust Agreement that the
Trust created thereunder shall constitute a fixed investment trust for federal
income tax purposes under Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-4, and the
Certificateholder agrees to treat the Trust, any distributions therefrom and
its beneficial interest in the Certificates consistently with such
characterization.

          The Trust and the obligations of the Depositor and the Trustee
created by the Trust Agreement with respect to the Certificates shall
terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i)


                                    A-2B-5

the payment in full at maturity or sale by the Trust after a payment default
on or an acceleration or other early payment of the Underlying Securities and
the distribution in full of all amounts due to the Class A-1
Certificateholders and Class A-2 Certificateholders; (ii) the Final Scheduled
Distribution Date and (iii) the expiration of 21 years from the death of the
last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late Ambassador of
the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

          An employee benefit plan subject to the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), a plan described in Section
4975(e) of the Code, an entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by
reason of any such plan's investment in the entity, including an individual
retirement account or Keogh plan (any such, a "Plan") may purchase and hold
Certificates if the Plan can represent and warrant that its purchase and
holding of the Certificates would not be prohibited under ERISA or the Code.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

      In connection with our proposed purchase of $25,000,000 aggregate
notional amount of [Class A-2A]/[Class A-2B] Certificates (the "Certificates")
representing an interest in the Corporate Backed Trust Certificates, CIT
Capital Trust I Securities-Backed Series 2003-9 Trust (the "Trust"), the
undersigned, by executing this letter (the "Purchaser") confirms that:

     1. [Reference is made to the private placement memorandum, dated March
25, 2003, including the schedules, exhibits and annexes, if any, thereto, as
supplemented or amended to the date hereof (the "Memorandum"), relating to the
Class A-2A Certificates. Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise
defined shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Memorandum. The
Purchaser has received a copy of the Memorandum and such other information as
the Purchaser deems necessary in order to make its investment decision and the
Purchaser has been provided the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive
answers from, the Depositor and the Initial Purchaser, concerning the terms
and conditions of the offering described in the Memorandum.] The Purchaser has
received and understands the information discussed above and understands that
substantial risks are involved in an investment in the Certificates. The
Purchaser represents that, in making its investment decision to acquire the
Certificates, the Purchaser has not relied on representations, warranties,
opinions, projections, financial or other information or analysis, if any,
supplied to it by any person or entity, including the Initial Purchaser, the
Depositor or the Trustee or any of their affiliates, except as expressly
contained [in the Memorandum and] in the other written information, if any,
discussed above. [The Purchaser acknowledges that it has read and agreed to
the matters stated on pages 2 through


                                      B-1
<PAGE>


4 of such Memorandum and the information under the heading "Transfer
Restrictions".] The Purchaser is purchasing the Certificates for investment
purposes and not with a view to, or for, the offer or sale in connection with
a public distribution or in any other manner that would violate the 1933 Act
or the securities or blue sky laws of any state of the United States. The
Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters
as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of purchasing any of the
Certificates. The Purchaser is aware that it may be required to bear the
substantial economic risk of an investment in the Certificates for an
indefinite period of time and such Purchaser is able to bear such risk for an
indefinite period. The Purchaser has relied upon its own tax, legal and
financial advisors in connection with its decision to purchase the
Certificates.

     2. The Purchaser is not an not an "affiliate" (as defined in Rule 144
under the Securities Act) of the Depositor and is either:

          (i) a "Qualified Institutional Buyer" (a "QIB") (as defined in Rule
     144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act" and
     "Rule 144A")) and has delivered to you the certification contained herein
     as to the fact that it is a QIB and (B) acquiring the Certificates for
     its own account, for the account of an Accredited Investor (as defined in
     Rule 501(a) under the 1933 Act), or for the account of a QIB as to each
     of which the Purchaser exercises sole investment discretion. The
     Purchaser is aware that the Certificates are being sold to it in reliance
     on the exemption from the provisions of Section 5 of the 1933 Act
     provided by Rule 144A; or

          (ii) an Accredited Investor and, if the Certificates are to be
     purchased for one or more accounts ("investor accounts") for which it is
     acting as fiduciary or agent, each such investor account is an Accredited
     Investor on a like basis or a QIB; in the normal course of its business,
     such Purchaser invests in or purchases securities similar to the
     Certificates.

     3. The Purchaser acknowledges that neither the Depositor nor the Initial
Purchaser, or any person representing the Depositor or the Initial Purchaser,
has made any representation to such purchaser with respect to the Trust, the
Underlying Securities or the offering or sale of any Certificates, other than
the information contained in the Memorandum, which has been delivered to the
Purchaser and upon which the Purchaser is relying in making an investment
decision with respect to the Certificates. Accordingly, the Purchaser
acknowledges that no representation or warranty is made by the Depositor or
the Initial Purchaser as to the accuracy or completeness of such materials.

     4. The Purchaser understands that the Certificates are being offered in a
transaction not involving any public offering in the United States within the
meaning of the 1933 Act, that the Certificates have not been and will not be
registered under the 1933 Act or under the securities or blue sky laws of any
state, and that (i) if in the future it decides to offer, resell, pledge or
otherwise transfer the Certificates, such Certificates shall only be offered,
resold, assigned or otherwise transferred (A) to the Trust, (B) pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act, (C) to a QIB, in
accordance with Rule 144A, (D) to any person or entity (including an
Accredited Investor) pursuant to another available exemption from registration
provided under the Securities Act, and, in each of cases (A) through (D), in
accordance with any


                                      B-2
<PAGE>


applicable securities laws of any state of the United States and other
jurisdictions and (ii) the purchaser will, and each subsequent holder is
required to, notify any subsequent purchaser of such Certificates from it of
the resale restrictions referred to in clause (i) above. Upon the transfer of
Certificates held in the form of global certificates to an Accredited
Investor, the transferor's interest in such global certificates shall be
exchanged for a Certificate in definitive form. Thereafter, upon transfer of a
definitive Certificate to a QIB, such certificate may be exchanged for a
beneficial interest in a global Certificate.

     5. The Purchaser understands that each Certificate will, unless otherwise
agreed to by the Depositor and the Trustee, bear a legend substantially to the
following effect:

          "THIS CERTIFICATE (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER
          THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED,
          SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT WHILE A REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH
          ACT IS IN EFFECT OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM UNDER SUCH
          ACT. THE CERTIFICATE REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN
          ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THE SERIES SUPPLEMENT.

          EACH PURCHASER OF THIS CERTIFICATE IS HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT THE
          SELLER OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE RELYING ON THE EXEMPTION FROM THE
          PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5 OF THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144A
          THEREUNDER."

     6. The Purchaser understands that no subsequent transfer of the
Certificates is permitted unless (A) such transfer is of a Certificate with a
denomination of at least $100,000 and (B) it causes its proposed transferee to
provide to the Trustee and the Initial Purchaser a letter substantially in the
form hereof and otherwise satisfactory to the Trustee and Initial Purchaser,
as applicable, or such other written statement as the Depositor shall
prescribe.

     7. The Purchaser agrees that, if at some time in the future it wishes to
transfer or exchange any of the Certificates, it will not transfer or exchange
any of the Certificates unless such transfer or exchange is in accordance with
Section 5.04 of the Trust Agreement. The Purchaser understands that any
purported transfer of the Certificates (or any interest therein) in
contravention of any of the restrictions and conditions in the Trust
Agreement, as applicable, shall be void, and the purported transferee in such
transfer shall not be recognized by the Trust or any other Person as a
Certificateholder, as the case may be, for any purpose.

     8. The purchaser (i) acknowledges that the Depositor, the Initial
Purchaser, the Trustee and others will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the
foregoing acknowledgments, representations and agreements and agrees that the
Depositor, the Initial Purchaser, the Trustee are irrevocably authorized to
produce this letter or a copy hereof to any interested party in any
administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the
matters covered hereby, and (ii) agrees that, if any of the acknowledgments,
representations, warranties and agreements


                                      B-3
<PAGE>


made or deemed to have been made by such purchaser's purchase of the
Certificates are no longer accurate, such purchaser shall promptly notify the
Depositor and the Initial Purchaser. If the purchaser is acquiring any
Certificates as a fiduciary or agent for one or more investor accounts, it
represents that it has sole investment discretion with respect to each such
account and it has full power to make the foregoing acknowledgments,
representations and agreements on behalf of each such account and that each
such investor account is eligible to purchase the Certificates.

                               Very truly yours,

                               By:
