consents or approvals required by applicable law or otherwise. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Trustees may take all actions which the Depositor deems
necessary, convenient or incidental to effect the transactions contemplated
herein and as the Trustees shall be directed in writing by the Depositor.

      4. The Depositor, as the depositor of the Trust, is hereby authorized (i)
