the Trustee or the Depositary by lot, or in the event redemption by lot is not practicable, by pro rata reduction of the aggregate Stated Amount of Certificates to be redeemed, and all Certificates so selected will be paid for on the Warrant Exercise Date (or, solely in the case of a Call Warrant exercised under Section 10(h)(iii) of this Series Supplement, as soon as practicable after the related Warrant Exercise Date).

(i)          A notice specifying the Outstanding Amount of Certificates being surrendered and the Optional Exchange Date shall be delivered to the Trustee no less than 10 days (or such shorter period acceptable to the Trustee) but not more than 30 days before the Optional Exchange Date;


 


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


 


(iii)        Certificates in Outstanding Amounts equal to $500,000 or whole multiples of $10,000 in excess thereof shall be surrendered;


 


(iv)        The Trustee (at the Trustor’s expense) shall have received an opinion of counsel stating that the exchange will not cause the Trust to be classified as a corporation or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes;


 


(v)         The Trustee shall not be obligated to determine whether the 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;

 fractional amount of Certificates, then the amount of Certificate to be redeemed shall be rounded downward to the nearest whole amount, subject to the last sentence of this paragraph (g).  Any excess amounts representing the difference between the Warrant Exercise Purchase Price and such rounded amount of Certificates shall be held in an Eligible Account for the benefit of the Certificateholders and invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with Section 3.10 of the Base Trust Agreement.  Any earnings on such amounts shall comprise Interest Collections.  Any such amounts or portion thereof shall be used on a subsequent Warrant Exercise Date to the extent sufficient, when added to the Warrant Exercise Purchase Price on such subsequent Warrant Exercise Date, to prevent the redemption of a fractional amount of Certificates.]







Section 9.        Actions following an Underlying [Issuer] [Guarantor] Trust Reporting Event.







(a)         If an Underlying [Issuer] [Guarantor] Trust Reporting Event has occurred, the Trustor will determine in its reasonable, good faith discretion whether a Trust Reporting Event has occurred.


 


(b)         (i)  If a Trust Reporting Event has occurred, then the Trustor shall promptly notify the Trustee, the Trust  [and] [,] each Rating Agency [and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Warrantholders] of such Trust Reporting Event and the Trustee shall liquidate any remaining Underlying Securities in accordance with subclause (iii) below and distribute such moneys or other property to the holders of Certificates then outstanding and unpaid, [subject to subclause (ii) below].


 


(ii)  [The Call Warrants will become immediately exercisable upon the occurrence of a Trust Reporting Event (whether such Trust Reporting Event occurs before or after [____]) and, if the Call Warrants are in the money, as defined in subclause (iii) below, they will be deemed to be exercised without further action by the Warrantholders and will be cash settled concurrently with the distribution to Certificateholders.  The distribution shall be made to the Certificateholders on a pro rata basis according to the Outstanding Amount for the Certificates held, provided that the Certificateholders shall not receive more than $25 per Certificate plus accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption.  Any liquidation proceeds in excess of the amounts distributed to the Certificateholders pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be distributed to the Warrantholders on a pro rata basis according to the number of Call Warrants held.]


 


(iii)  If a Trust Reporting Event occurs, 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 [and the Warrantholders], and may solicit additional bids from such other parties as instructed by the Trustor.  [For purposes of this Section 9(b), the Call Warrants will be deemed to be “in the money” if the highest firm bid received with respect to all Underlying Securities held by the Trust exceeds the Warrant Exercise Purchase Price for such Underlying Securities, and cash settlement shall be made in an amount equal to such excess (but only if the Underlying Securities are actually sold at a price equal to the amount of such bid).]  Any of the following dealers shall be deemed to qualify as leading dealers: (A) Wells Fargo Securities, (B) [___________], (C) [___________], (D) [___________], (E)

[___________] and (F) [___________]; provided, however, that the Trustee may also solicit bids from other leading dealers; provided, further, that no bid from [___________] or any affiliate thereof shall be accepted unless such bid equals the then fair market value, as determined by the Trustor, of such Underlying Securities.  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 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.







(iv)  [Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time a Trust Reporting Event occurs and is continuing, Warrantholders will have the right to exercise the Call Warrants in accordance with Section 8 so long as the Call Warrants are exercised prior to the liquidation or distribution of the Underlying Securities.  Any payments to Certificateholders in connection with such exercise shall be made as set forth in Section 8.]







Section 10.      Distributions.  (a)  Notwithstanding any provision in the Agreement to the contrary, the Trustee shall deposit in the Certificate Account on the same day of receipt (to the extent received by 12:00 noon on such day) all amounts collected with respect to the Underlying Securities and all Liquidation Proceeds.  On each Scheduled Distribution Date,  the Trustee shall distribute to the extent of Interest Collections, (i) first to the Trustee and its respective agents that amount of expenses paid as part of the Allowable Expense Amount, (ii) second to the Certificateholders, pro rata, the Interest Payment, and (iii) third to the Trustee and its respective agents that sum of accrued and unpaid fees of the Trustee and unpaid listing fees of the Trust shall be deducted from the amount distributable on such Scheduled Distribution Date.  In addition, on any other Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute Interest Collections (i) first to the Trustee and its respective agents that amount of expenses paid as part of the Allowable Expense Amount, (ii) second to the Certificateholders, pro rata and (iii) third to the Trustee and its respective agents the sum of the accrued and unpaid fees of the Trustee and unpaid listing fees of the Trust shall be deducted from amounts distributable on such Distribution Date.  On the Final Scheduled Distribution, and to the extent received on any other Scheduled Distribution Date or Underlying Securities Redemption Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute [(i) first], to the Certificateholders, a portion of the principal amount of the Underlying Securities to the extent the principal of the Underlying Securities is received by the Trustee on such date or during the related Collection Period in an amount up to the Certificateholder Allocation Amount, plus any accrued interest thereon[, and (ii) second, to the Warrantholders, any remaining principal distributed with respect to the Underlying Securities in payment of the Warrantholder Allocation Amount.]  [In the event any redemption or other premium is paid on the Underlying Securities, such amount shall be distributed to the Warrantholders, pro rata in accordance with their respective number of Warrants.] 






Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any payment with respect to the Underlying Securities is made to the Trustee after the Underlying Securities Payment Date on which such payment was due, the Trustee shall distribute such amount received on the Business Day following such receipt.  [All distributions to Certificateholders shall be subject to exercise of Call Warrants and payment of the applicable portion of the related Warrant Exercise Purchase Price

in lieu of such distribution in the event the related Distribution Date is also a Warrant Exercise Date.]







(b)         In the event of a Payment Default, the Trustee shall proceed against the Underlying Issuer on behalf of the Certificateholders to enforce the Underlying Securities or otherwise to protect the interests of the Certificateholders, subject to the receipt of indemnity in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee; provided that, holders of the Certificates representing a majority of the Voting Rights on the Certificates will be entitled to direct the Trustee in any such proceeding or direct the Trustee to sell the Underlying Securities, subject to the Trustee’s receipt of satisfactory indemnity.  If the Trustee is directed to sell the Underlying Securities, 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, which may include but is not limited to any three of the following dealers: (1) Wells Fargo Securities, (2) [__________], (3) [__________], (4) [__________], (5) [__________], (6) [__________] and (7) [__________]; provided, however, that no bid from Wells Fargo Securities or any affiliate thereof shall be accepted unless such bid equals the then fair market value of such Underlying Securities as determined by the Trustor. 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 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 Acceleration and a corresponding payment on the Underlying Securities, the Trustee shall distribute the proceeds to the Certificateholders no later than two (2) Business Days after the receipt of immediately available funds.







(c)         In the event that the Trustee receives money or other property in respect of the Underlying Securities (other than a scheduled payment on or with respect to an interest payment date) as a result of a Payment Default on the Underlying Securities (including from the sale thereof), the Trustee will promptly give notice as provided in Section 18(c) to the Depositary, or for any Certificates which are not then held by the Depositary or any other depository, directly to the registered holders of the Certificates then outstanding and unpaid.  Such notice shall state that, not later than 30 days after the receipt of such moneys or other property, the Trustee will allocate and distribute such moneys or other property [pro rata to the holders of Certificates then outstanding and unpaid (after deducting the costs incurred in connection therewith and subject to clause (b)(ii) of Section 2)][first, to the holders of the Certificates pro rata in an amount equal to the Certificateholder Allocation Amount (after deducting the costs incurred in connection therewith and subject to clause (b)(ii) of Section 2), and second, to the Warrantholders in an amount equal to the Warrantholder Allocation Amount].  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 Underlying Securities to Certificateholders will be deemed to reduce the Outstanding Amount of Certificates on a proportionate basis. Following such in-kind distribution, all Certificates will be cancelled. No amounts will be distributed to the Trustor in respect of the Underlying Securities. 






(d)         Distributions to the Certificateholders on each Distribution Date will be made to the Certificateholders of record on the Record Date.

(e)         All distributions to the Certificateholders shall be allocated pro rata based on their respective Outstanding Amount as of the Record Date.







(f)          Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement to the contrary, to the extent funds are available, the Trustee will initiate payment in immediately available funds by 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on each Distribution Date of all amounts payable to each Certificateholder with respect to any Certificate held by such Certificateholder or its nominee (without the necessity for any presentation or surrender thereof or any notation of such payment thereon) in the manner and at the address as each Certificateholder may from time to time direct the Trustee in writing 15 days prior to such Distribution Date requesting that such payment will be so made and designating the bank account to which such payments shall be so made. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the last instruction delivered by the Certificateholder pursuant to this Section 10(f) unless a new instruction is delivered 15 days prior to a Distribution Date.







(g)         The rights of the Certificateholders to receive distributions in respect of the Certificates, and all interests of the Certificateholders in such distributions, shall be as set forth in this Series Supplement.  The Trustee shall in no way be responsible or liable to the Certificateholders nor shall any Certificateholder in any way be responsible or liable to any other Certificateholder in respect of amounts previously distributed on the Certificates based on their respective Outstanding Amounts.







(h)         [(i)    If the Trustee receives notice of a tender offer for some or all of the Underlying Securities, the Trustee shall within two (2) Business Days notify the Warrant Agent and forward to the Warrant Agent copies of all materials received by the Trustee in connection therewith.


 


  (ii)    If (A) the Trustee receives a Call Notice from any Warrantholder no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the expiration of the tender offer acceptance period, (B) such Call Notice indicates that such Warrantholder desires to exercise all or a portion of its Call Warrants in connection with the consummation of any such tender offer, and (C) such Warrantholder (x) does not expressly state in such Call Notice that it does not want to receive Underlying Securities in connection with such exercise, or (y) does not deliver to the Trustee simultaneously with the delivery of such Call Notice to the Trustee an executed subscription for the Underlying Securities in the form of Exhibit II hereto, (1) such Call Warrant shall be settled as set forth in Section 8(d) of the Series Supplement, and (2) any payments to Certificateholders in connection with such exercise shall be made as set forth in Section 8.


 


  (iii)    If (A) the Trustee receives a Call Notice from any Warrantholder no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the expiration of the tender offer acceptance period, (B) such Call Notice indicates that such Warrantholder desires to exercise all or a portion of its Call Warrants in connection with the consummation of any such tender offer, (C) such Warrantholder expressly states in such Call Notice that it does not want to receive Underlying Securities in connection with such exercise, and (D) an executed subscription for the Underlying Securities in the form of Exhibit II hereto is delivered to the Trustee together with such Call Notice, then the Trustee shall tender, in compliance with the tender offer requirements, an amount of Underlying Securities equal to the amount of Underlying Securities callable by the Call Warrants specified in such Call Notice.


 


 


 




 











  





13











  













  (iv)    The Warrant Exercise Date for any exercise of Call Warrants under Section 10(h)(iii) shall be deemed to be the Business Day on which such Underlying Securities are accepted for payment and paid for.


 


  (v)    The Warrant Exercise Purchase Price with respect to the exercise of Call Warrants under Section 10(h)(iii) shall be deducted from the tender offer proceeds and paid to Certificateholders in accordance with Section 8, and the excess of the tender offer proceeds over such Warrant Exercise Purchase Price shall be paid to the related exercising Warrantholders pro rata in respect to their proportionate exercises of Call Warrants or, if such Warrant Exercise Purchase Price exceeds the tender offer proceeds, the amount of such excess shall be paid by such exercising Warrantholders pro rata in respect to their proportionate exercises of Call Warrants.


 


  (vi)    If fewer than all tendered Underlying Securities are accepted for payment and paid for, (A) the amount of Call Warrants exercised under Section 10(h)(iii) shall be reduced to an amount that corresponds to a number of the Underlying Securities accepted for payment and paid for (without regard to any restrictions on the amount to be exercised, so long as such restrictions would have been satisfied had all tendered Underlying Securities been accepted for payment and paid for); (B) each related Warrantholder’s exercise shall be reduced by its share (proportionate to the amount specified in its exercise notice) of the amount of Underlying Securities not accepted for payment and paid for; (C) the related Warrant Exercise Purchase Price shall be determined after giving effect to the reduction specified in clause (B); (D) the Call Warrants that relate to the reduction specified in clause (B) shall remain outstanding; and (E) the excess of the tender offer proceeds over such Warrant Exercise Purchase Price shall be allocated in proportion to the amount of Call Warrants deemed exercised as set forth in clause (A) above or, if such Warrant Exercise Purchase Price exceeds the tender offer proceeds the amount of such excess shall be paid by such exercising Warrantholders pro rata in respect to their proportionate exercises of such Call Warrants.


 


  (vii)   If the tender offer is terminated by the Underlying Issuer or an affiliate thereof without consummation thereof or if all tenders by the Trust of Underlying Securities are otherwise rejected, then (A) the Call Notices covered under Section 10(h)(iii) will be of no further force and effect, and (B) any Call Warrants relating to such Call Notices will not be exercised and will remain outstanding.] 

 


      (i)           [Upon the occurrence of any Optional Deferral Period the Trustee shall not be obligated to distribute Interest Collections on any Scheduled Distribution Date until (x) payments on the Underlying Securities have resumed and (y) all amounts due and payable on the Underlying Securities have been received by the Trust.  Upon the satisfaction of these conditions, the Trustee shall distribute the Interest Collections to Certificateholders in accordance with subsection 10(a) above.]







Section 11.      Termination of Trust.  (a)  The Trust shall terminate upon the occurrence of any Trust Termination Event.







(b)         Except for any reports and other information required to be provided to Certificateholders hereunder and under the Base Trust Agreement and except as otherwise 


















  





14











  








specified herein and therein, the obligations of the Trustee will terminate upon the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to them and the disposition of all Underlying Securities held by the Trustee.  The Trust shall thereupon terminate, except for rights of indemnity the survival of which are expressly provided for in this Series Supplement or the Base Trust Agreement.







Section 12.      Limitation of Powers and Duties.  (a)  The Trustee shall administer the Trust and the Underlying Securities solely as specified herein and in the Base Trust Agreement.







(b)         The Trust is constituted solely for the purpose of acquiring and holding the Underlying Securities and issuing the Certificates [and Call Warrants].  The Trustee is not authorized to acquire any other investments or engage in any activities not authorized herein and, in particular, unless expressly provided in the Agreement, the Trustee is not authorized (i) to sell, assign, transfer, exchange, pledge, set-off or otherwise dispose of any of the Underlying Securities, once acquired, or interests therein, including to Certificateholders, (ii) to merge or consolidate the Trust with any other entity, or (iii) to do anything that would materially increase the likelihood that the Trust will fail to qualify as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes. In addition, the Trustee has no power to create, assume or incur indebtedness or other liabilities in the name of the Trust other than as contemplated herein and in the Base Trust Agreement.







(c)         The parties acknowledge that the Trustee, as the holder of the Underlying Securities, has the right to vote and give consents and waivers in respect of the Underlying Securities and enforce the other rights, if any, of a holder of the Underlying Securities, except as otherwise limited by the Base Trust Agreement or this Series Supplement.  In the event that the Trustee receives a request from the Underlying Securities Trustee, the Underlying Issuer or, if applicable, the Depositary with respect to the Underlying Securities, for the Trustee’s consent to any amendment, modification or waiver of the Underlying Securities, or any document relating thereto, or receives any other solicitation for any action with respect to the Underlying Securities, the Trustee shall within two (2) Business Days mail a notice of such proposed amendment, modification, waiver or solicitation to each Certificateholder of record as of the date of such request. The Trustee shall request instructions from the Certificateholders as to what action to take in response to such request and shall be protected in taking no action if no direction is received.  Except as otherwise provided herein, the Trustee shall consent or vote, or refrain from consenting or voting, in the same proportion as the Certificates of the Trust were actually voted or not voted by the Certificateholders thereof as of the date determined by the Trustee prior to the date such vote or consent is required; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Base Trust Agreement or this Series Supplement, the Trustee shall at no time vote in favor of or consent to any matter (i) which would alter the timing or amount of any payment on the Underlying Securities (including, without limitation, any demand to accelerate the Underlying Securities) or (ii) which would result in the exchange or substitution of any Underlying Security whether or not pursuant to a plan for the refunding or refinancing of such Underlying Security, except in each case with the unanimous consent of the Certificateholders. The Trustee shall have no liability for any failure to act or to refrain from acting resulting from the Certificateholders’ late return of, or failure to return, directions requested by the Trustee from the Certificateholders.

(d)         Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement to the contrary, the Trustee may require from the Certificateholders prior to taking any action at the direction of the Certificateholders, an indemnity agreement of a Certificateholder or any of its Affiliates to provide for security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities the Trustee may incur by reason of any such action.  An unsecured indemnity agreement, if acceptable to the Trustee, shall be deemed to be sufficient to satisfy such security or indemnity requirement.







(e)         Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement to the contrary, the Trustee shall act as the sole Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent and Certificate Registrar.







Section 13.      Compensation of Trustee.  The Trustee shall be entitled to receive from the Trustor as compensation for its services hereunder, trustee’s fees pursuant to a separate fee agreement between the Trustee and the Trustor to the extent not paid by this Agreement, and shall be reimbursed for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by it (including the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of its counsel and other persons not regularly in its employ). The Trustor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and its successors, assigns, agents and servants against any and all loss, liability or reasonable expense (including attorney’s fees) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties thereunder. The immediately preceding indemnity from the Trustor in favor of the Trustee is in addition to the Trustee’s right to recover an Allowable Expense Amount pursuant to Section 10 of this Series Supplement.  In addition, it is expressly understood by the parties that the Trustor shall reimburse and pay to the Trustee all Extraordinary Trust Expenses, including, but not limited to, all Extraordinary Trust Expenses forming part of an Allowable Expense Amount only to the extent such expenses are not paid in full to the Trustee pursuant to Section 10 of this Series Supplement. The Trustee shall notify the Trustor promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Trustor shall not relieve the Trustor of its obligations hereunder. The Trustor need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. The indemnities contained in this Section 13 shall survive the resignation or termination of the Trustee or the termination of this Agreement.








Failure by the Trustor to pay, reimburse or indemnify the Trustee shall not entitle the Trustee to any payment, reimbursement or indemnification from the Trust, nor shall such failure release the Trustee from the duties it is required to perform under this Series Supplement subject to Section 8.7 and Article IX of the Base Trust Agreement. Any unpaid, unreimbursed or unindemnified amounts shall not be borne by the Trust and shall not constitute a claim against the Trust, but shall be borne by the Trustee in its individual capacity, and the Trustee shall have no recourse against the Trust with respect thereto.







Section 14.      Modification or Amendment.  The Trustee shall not enter into any modification or amendment of the Base Trust Agreement or this Series Supplement unless such modification or amendment is in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Base Trust Agreement. [If the Rating Agency Condition is not satisfied with respect to any proposed modification or amendment of the Base Trust Agreement or this Series Supplement, then any such modification or amendment must be approved by 100% of the Certificateholders.]

(e)         [The Trustee shall, in connection with any notice or delivery of documents to Certificateholders (whether or not such notice or delivery is required pursuant to the Agreement), provide such notice or documents to the Warrantholders concurrently with the delivery thereof to the Certificateholders.]

With respect to the Series issued hereby, the Base Trust Agreement (including the grant of a security interest in Section 10.8 of the Base Trust Agreement with respect to the Underlying Securities conveyed hereunder), as supplemented by this Series Supplement, is in all respects ratified and confirmed, and the Base Trust Agreement as so supplemented by this Series Supplement shall be read, taken and construed as one and the same instrument. To the extent there is any inconsistency between the terms of the Base Trust Agreement and this Series Supplement, the terms of this Series Supplement shall govern.


 


Section 22.      Counterparts.  This Series Supplement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.


 


Section 23.      Governing Law.  This Series Supplement and each Certificate issued hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely therein without reference to such State’s principles of conflicts of law to the extent that the application of the laws of another jurisdiction would be required thereby, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.  The State of New York is the securities intermediary’s jurisdiction of the Securities Intermediary of the purposes of the UCC enacted in any jurisdiction.


 


Section 24.      Certificate of Compliance.  The Trustor shall deliver to the Trustee on or prior to March 15 of each year prior to a Trust Termination Event the Officer’s Certificate as to compliance as required by Section 6.1(b) of the Base Trust Agreement.


 


Section 25.      Certain Filing to be Made by the Trustee.  In the event that a Payment Default or a Trust Reporting Event occurs and the Underlying Securities are liquidated at a loss, the Trustee will disclose pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4 the loss in accordance with the procedures of such regulation, unless the Trustee received an Opinion of Counsel from the Trustor (at the expense of the Trustor) that such disclosure in not necessary. In general, the Trustee will (x) attach a completed Form 8886 to its tax return in the year the requisite loss occurs and (y) file a completed form with the [Office of Tax Shelter Analysis (OTSA) at: Internal Revenue Service, 1973 North Rulon White Blvd., LB&I:PFTG:OTSA – M/S 4916, Ogden, Utah 84404-5402] (or such other address subsequently required).


 


Section 26.      Establishment of Certificate Account.  The Securities Intermediary and the Trustee hereby represent and warrant that:







 


 


 


 




 






  





18











  













(a)         The Certificate Account for the Trust is a “securities account” within the meaning of Section 8-501 of the UCC and is held only in the name of the Trustee on behalf of the Trust.  There is only one account that constitutes the Certificate Account. The Securities Intermediary is acting in the capacity of a “securities intermediary” within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(14) of the UCC;







(b)         All Underlying Securities shall have been (i) delivered to the Securities Intermediary pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and (ii) credited to the Certificate Account; and







(c)         The Certificate Account is an account to which financial assets may be credited, and the Securities Intermediary shall treat the Trustee as entitled to exercise the rights that comprise any financial asset credited to the Certificate Account.







Section 27.      Statement of Intent.  It is the intention of the parties hereto that, for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and any other taxes imposed upon, measured by or based upon gross or net income, the Trust shall be treated as a grantor trust, but failing that, as a partnership (other than a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation) and, in any event, shall not be classified as a corporation. The parties hereto agree that, unless otherwise required by appropriate tax authorities, the Trustee shall file or cause to be filed annual or other necessary returns, reports and other forms consistent with such intended characterization. In the event that the Trust is characterized by appropriate tax authorities as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, each Certificateholder, by its acceptance of its Certificate, agrees to report its respective share of the items of income, deductions, and credits of the Trust on its respective returns (making such elections as to individual items as may be appropriate) in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.761-2(b) (the “761 Election”) and in a manner consistent with the complete exclusion of the Trust from subchapter K of the Code. The terms of the Agreement shall be interpreted to further these intentions of the parties. As further consideration for each Certificateholder’s purchase of a Certificate, each such Certificateholder is deemed to agree not to irrevocably delegate to any person (for a period of more than one year) authority to purchase, sell or exchange its Certificates. 






Each Certificateholder (and each beneficial owner of a Certificate) by acceptance of its Certificate (or its beneficial interest therein) agrees, unless otherwise required by appropriate tax authorities, to file its own tax returns and reports in a manner consistent with the characterization indicated above.







Section 28.      Voting Rights.  Voting and consensual rights available to or in favor of Certificateholders may be exercised only by a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) that is a beneficial owner of a Certificate or by a United States person acting as irrevocable agent with discretionary powers for the beneficial owner of a Certificate that is not a United States person.  Certificateholders that are not United States persons must irrevocably appoint a United States person with discretionary powers to act as their agent with respect to such voting and consensual rights.









 


 


 




 






  





19











  






 


Section 29.      Filing of Partnership Returns.  In the event that the Trust is characterized (by appropriate tax authorities) as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes, and the 761 Election is ineffective, the Trustor agrees to reimburse the Trust for any expenses associated with the filing of partnership returns (or returns related thereto).


 


Section 30.      Securities Intermediary.







(a)         There shall at all times be a securities intermediary appointed for purposes of this Agreement (the “Securities Intermediary”). [__________] is hereby appointed as the initial Securities Intermediary hereunder and accepts such appointment.







(b)         The Securities Intermediary represents, warrants, and covenants, and the parties hereto agree, that at all times prior to the termination of this Agreement:

The Securities Intermediary (A) shall be a state-chartered or national bank or trust company, (B) shall not be an Affiliate of Depositor, (C) shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least USD [100,000,000], (D) shall be subject to supervision or examination by United States federal or state authority, and (E) shall have a credit rating in one of the four highest categories by [__________] [[not less than [__]] nationally recognized statistical rating organization[s]].







(ii)         The Certificate Account shall be an account maintained with the Securities Intermediary to which financial assets may be credited and the Securities Intermediary shall treat the Trustee as entitled to exercise the rights that comprise such financial assets.


 



(iii)        The Securities Intermediary shall not change the name or the account number of the Certificate Account without the prior written consent of the Trustee.







(iv)        Each item of property credited to the Certificate Account shall be treated as a financial asset.







(v)        The Securities Intermediary shall comply with entitlement orders originated by the Trustee without further consent by the Depositor, the Trust, or any other person or entity.







(vi)       The Securities Intermediary shall not agree with any person or entity other than the Trustee that it will comply with entitlement orders originated by any person or entity other than the Trustee.







(vii)       The Securities Intermediary shall not be a party to any agreement that is inconsistent with this Agreement, or that limits or conditions any of its obligations under this Agreement. The Securities Intermediary shall not take any action inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement applicable to it.







(viii)       Each item of property credited to the Certificate Account shall not be subject to, and the Securities Intermediary hereby waives, any security interest, lien,

claim, encumbrance, or right of setoff in favor of the Securities Intermediary or anyone claiming through the Securities Intermediary (other than the Trustee).







(ix)         For purposes of Article 8 of the UCC, the securities intermediary’s jurisdiction of the Securities Intermediary with respect to the Certificate Account shall be the State of New York.







(c)         It is the intent of the Trustee and the Depositor that the Certificate Account shall be a securities account of the Trustee and not an account of the Depositor.







(d)         Nothing herein shall impose upon the Securities Intermediary any duties or obligations other than those expressly set forth herein and those applicable to a securities intermediary under the New York Uniform Commercial Code. The Securities Intermediary shall be entitled to all of the protections available to a securities intermediary under the New York Uniform Commercial Code.







(e)         The Securities Intermediary may at any time resign by written notice to the Trustee and may at any time be removed by written notice from the Trustee. The Trustee shall appoint a successor Securities Intermediary that satisfies the provisions of Section 30(b)(i).

Certain capitalized terms used in this Call Warrant are defined in Article IV hereof; capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Trust Agreement; references to an “Exhibit” are, unless otherwise specified, to one of the Exhibits attached to this Call Warrant and references to a “Section” are, unless otherwise specified, to one of the sections of this Call Warrant.







Article I







Exercise of Warrants







Section I.1.      Manner of Exercise.  (a)  Each of these Call Warrants may be exercised by the holder hereof (each, a “Warrantholder”), on any Warrant Exercise Date. Each Call Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part; provided, that, for each Warrant Exercise Date, the exercising Warrantholder (or, if applicable, two or more affiliated Warrantholders) must purchase Called Underlying Securities in a minimum aggregate principal amount of $500,000 and multiples thereof.  The following conditions shall apply to any exercise of these Call Warrants:







(i)          A written notice in the form of Exhibit I hereto (the “Call Notice”) specifying the number of Call Warrants being exercised and the Warrant Exercise Date shall be delivered to the Warrant Agent and the Trustee at least 10 but not greater than 30 days before such Warrant Exercise Date.


 


(ii)         The Warrantholder shall surrender these Call Warrants to the Warrant Agent at its office specified in Section VI.3 hereof no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such Warrant Exercise Date.


 


(iii)        Except in connection with a Call Notice relating to a tender offer for Underlying Securities where the Underlying Securities cannot be delivered to the relevant Warrantholder due to time constraints or other restrictions relating to such tender, which shall be settled as set forth in Section 10(h) of the Series Supplement, the Warrantholder shall have made payment to the Warrant Agent, by wire transfer or other immediately available funds acceptable to the Warrant Agent, in the amount of the Warrant Exercise Purchase Price for the exercised Call Warrants, no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Warrant Exercise Date and shall have delivered in connection with its payment, an executed subscription for the Underlying Securities in the form of Exhibit II hereto.


 


(iv)       The Warrantholder shall have satisfied all conditions to the exercise of Call Warrants set forth in Section 8 of the Series Supplement.







 


 


 




 






  





D-2











  








Upon exercise of these Call Warrants, the Warrantholder shall be entitled to delivery of the Called Underlying Securities.  The “Called Underlying Securities” shall be Underlying Securities having a principal amount equal to $500,000 per exercised Call Warrant.







(b)         The Warrant Agent shall notify the Trustee immediately upon receipt by the Warrant Agent of a notice by the holder of this Call Warrant and upon receipt of payment of the applicable Warrant Exercise Purchase Price from such holder pursuant to clause (a) of this Section I.1. The Warrant Agent shall transfer each payment made by the holder hereof pursuant to clause (a) of this Section I.1 to the Trustee in immediately available funds, for application pursuant to the Trust Agreement no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Warrant Exercise Date (and, pending such transfer, shall hold each such payment for the benefit of the holder hereof in a segregated trust account).







(c)         A notice by the holder of a Call Warrant does not impose any obligations on a holder of a Call Warrant in any way to pay any Warrant Exercise Purchase Price. If, by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Warrant Exercise Date, the holder of the Call Warrant being exercised has not paid the Warrant Exercise Purchase Price (except in connection with a Call Notice relating to a tender offer for Underlying Securities that will not be delivered to the relevant Warrantholder), then such notice shall automatically expire and none of the holders of such Call Warrant, the Warrant Agent and the Trustee shall have any obligations with respect to such notice by the holder of such Call Warrant. The expiration of a notice by the holder of this Call Warrant shall in no way affect a holder of a Call Warrant’s right to subsequently deliver a notice which satisfies the terms of the Trust Agreement.  The Warrant Exercise Purchase Price for a call in connection with a tender offer shall be deducted from the proceeds of a tender offer by the Trust pursuant to Section 10(h) of the Series Supplement.







(d)         The Call Warrants will become immediately exercisable upon a Trust Reporting Event (whether such Trust Reporting Event occurs before or after [________], 20[__]) and, if the Call Warrants are in the money, as defined in the Trust Agreement, they will be deemed to be exercised without further action by the Warrantholders and will be cash settled concurrently with the distribution to Certificateholders, as provided in Section 9 of the Series Supplement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time a Trust Reporting Event occurs and is continuing, Warrantholders will have the right to exercise the Call Warrants so long as the Call Warrants are exercised prior to the liquidation or distribution of the Underlying Securities.







(e)         The Call Warrants may also be exchanged, together with Certificates, for Underlying Securities, upon compliance with the provisions of Section 8(f) of the Series Supplement, and any such exchange shall be deemed an exercise of the related Call Warrants for purposes of the transfer of the exchanged principal amount of Underlying Securities pursuant to Section I.2.







Section I.2.      Transfer of Underlying Securities.  As soon as practicable after each surrender of these Call Warrants, and no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Warrant Exercise Date and upon satisfaction of all other requirements described in this Call Warrant, the Warrant Agent shall instruct the Trustee to cause the Called Underlying Securities represented by the number of Call Warrants being exercised hereunder to be registered on the book-entry system of the related depositary in the registered name or names furnished by the









 


 


 


 




 




  





D-3











  








holder, and, in case such exercise is of less than all of these Call Warrants, new Call Warrants of like tenor, representing the remaining unexercised and outstanding Call Warrants of the holder, shall be delivered by the Warrant Agent to the holder hereof; provided, however, that if such Call Notice is in connection with a tender offer and the called Underlying Securities cannot be delivered to the relevant Warrantholder due to time constraints or other restrictions relating to such tender, the Warrant Agent shall instruct the Trustee to distribute to the exercising Warrantholder the excess of the tender offer proceeds over the Warrant Exercise Purchase Price pursuant to Section 10(h) of the Series Supplement.  The Trustee shall cause the delivery of the Called Underlying Securities to the holder or its nominee no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Warrant Exercise Date in accordance with Section 8(e) of the Series Supplement.







Section I.3.      Cancellation and Destruction of Call Warrant.  All Call Warrants surrendered to the Warrant Agent for the purpose of exercise pursuant to Section I.1 and actually exercised, or for the purpose of transfer or exchange pursuant to Article III, shall be cancelled by the Warrant Agent, and no Call Warrant (other than that reflecting such transfer or exchange) shall be issued in lieu thereof.  The Warrant Agent shall destroy all cancelled Call Warrants.







Section I.4.      No Rights as Holder of Underlying Securities Conferred by Warrants.  Prior to the exercise hereof, these Call Warrants shall not entitle the holder hereof to any of the rights of a holder of the Underlying Securities, including, without limitation, the right to receive the payment of any amount on or in respect of the Underlying Securities or to enforce any of the covenants of the Trust Agreement.







Section I.5.      Pro Rata Reduction of Call Warrants if Partial Redemption of Underlying Securities.  If the Underlying Securities are redeemed in part by the Underlying Issuer and the Warrantholders do not exercise their call rights in connection with such partial redemption, then the number of Call Warrants held by each Warrantholder shall be reduced proportionately so that the aggregate amount of Underlying Securities callable by Call Warrants shall equal the amount of Underlying Securities held by the Trust after giving effect to such partial redemption.







Section I.6.      Selection of Called Underlying Securities in the event of a Call in Connection with a Partial Redemption.  If a Warrantholder exercises Call Warrants in connection with a partial redemption of the Underlying Securities, the Trustee shall, to the extent possible, select Called Underlying Securities for transfer to the Warrantholder that have been selected by the Underlying Issuer for redemption.  If more than one Warrantholder exercises Call Warrants in such circumstances, such Called Underlying Securities that have been selected for redemption shall be allocated among such Warrantholders in proportion to the number of Call Warrants exercised by each.

Section II.1.    Restrictive Legends.  These Call Warrants may not be transferred except to a transferee whom the transferor of these Call Warrants reasonably believes is (A) a “Qualified Institutional Buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) and (B) acquiring the Call Warrants for its own account or for the account of an investor of the type described in clause (A) above as to which the transferee exercises sole investment discretion.  In addition, each transferee shall be required to deliver to the Warrant Agent an investment letter in the form of Exhibit III hereto.







Except as otherwise permitted by this Article II, the Call Warrants (or the Call Warrants issued upon the transfer of the Call Warrants) shall be issued with a legend in substantially the following form:







“These Call Warrants have 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 the exemption therefrom under such Act provided pursuant to Rule 144A thereunder.  The Call Warrants represented hereby may be transferred only in compliance with the conditions specified in these Call Warrants including the delivery of an Investment Letter in the form attached hereto.  Each prospective transferee of these Call Warrants shall be required to represent that it is (A) a “Qualified Institutional Buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A) and (B) acquiring the Call Warrants for its own account or for the account of an investor of the type described in clause (A) above as to which the transferee exercises sole investment discretion.”







Section II.2.    Notice of Proposed Transfer.  Prior to any transfer of any Call Warrant, the holder hereof will give five (5) Business Days (or such lesser period acceptable to the Warrant Agent) prior written notice to the Warrant Agent of such holder’s intention to effect such transfer and to comply in all other respects with this Section II.2. Each transfer of Call Warrants must be for a whole number of Call Warrants.







Article III







Registration and Transfer of Call Warrants, etc.







Section III.1.   Warrant Register; Ownership of Call Warrants.  The Warrant Agent will keep a register in which the Warrant Agent will provide for the registration of Call Warrants and the registration of transfers of Call Warrants representing whole numbers of Warrants. The Trustee and the Warrant Agent may treat the Person in whose name any Call Warrant is registered on such register as the owner thereof for all purposes, and the Trustee and the Warrant Agent shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.







Section III.2.   Transfer and Exchange of Call Warrants.  Upon surrender of any Call Warrant for registration of transfer or for exchange to the Warrant Agent, the Warrant Agent shall (subject to compliance with Article II) execute and deliver, and cause the Trustee, on behalf













  





D-5











  








of the Trust, to execute and deliver, in exchange therefor, a new Call Warrant of like tenor and evidencing a like number of Call Warrants, in the name of such holder or as such holder (upon payment by such holder of any applicable transfer taxes or government charges) may direct.  The Call Warrants must be transferred in a minimum amount of $500,000.







Section III.3.   Replacement of Call Warrants.  Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Warrant Agent of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Call Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of any Call Warrant, upon delivery of an indemnity bond in such reasonable amount as the Warrant Agent may determine, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon the surrender of such Call Warrant for cancellation to the Warrant Agent, the Warrant Agent shall execute and deliver, and cause the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Call Warrant of like tenor bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.







Section III.4.   Execution and Delivery of Call Warrants by Trustee.  The Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, hereby agrees (subject to compliance with Article II) to execute and deliver such new Call Warrants issued in accordance with Section I.2 or this Article III as the Warrant Agent shall request in accordance herewith.

Section V.2.    Duties of Warrant Agent.  The Warrant Agent undertakes only the specific duties and obligations imposed hereunder upon the following terms and conditions, by all of which the Trustor, the Trust, the Trustee and each Warrantholder shall be bound:







(a)         The Warrant Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be legal counsel for the Trustor), and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection to the Warrant Agent as to any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and in accordance with such opinion, provided the Warrant Agent shall have exercised reasonable care in the selection by it of such counsel.







(b)         Whenever in the performance of its duties hereunder, the Warrant Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that any fact or matter be proved or established by the Trustor or the Trustee prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such fact or matter may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a Trustor Order or a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee and delivered to the Warrant Agent; and such certificate shall be full authorization to the Warrant Agent for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it hereunder in reliance upon such certificate.







(c)         The Warrant Agent shall be liable hereunder only for its own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.







(d)         The Warrant Agent shall not be liable for or by reason of any of the statements of fact or recitals contained herein or be required to verify the same, but all such statements and recitals are and shall be deemed to have been made by the Trust and the Trustor only.







 


 


 


 




 






  





D-8











  








(e)         The Warrant Agent shall not have any responsibility in respect of and makes no representation as to the validity of this Call Warrant or the execution and delivery hereof (except the due execution hereof by the Warrant Agent); nor shall it be responsible for any breach by the Trust of any covenant or condition contained in this Call Warrant; nor shall it by any act hereunder be deemed to make any representation or warranty as to the Underlying Securities to be purchased hereunder.







(f)          The Warrant Agent is hereby authorized and directed to accept instructions with respect to the performance of its duties hereunder from the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, President, a Vice President, its Treasurer, an Assistant Treasurer, its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Trustor, and any Responsible Officer of the Trustee, and to apply to such officers for advice or instructions in connection with its duties, and it shall not be liable for any action taken or suffered to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with instructions of any such officer.







(g)         The Warrant Agent and any shareholder, director, officer or employee of the Warrant Agent may buy, sell or deal in any of these Call Warrants or other securities of the Trust or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not Warrant Agent hereunder, so long as such persons do so in full compliance with all applicable laws. Nothing herein shall preclude the Warrant Agent from acting in any other capacity for the Trust, the Trustor or for any other legal entity.







(h)         The Warrant Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights or powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either by itself or by or through its attorneys or agents.







(i)          The Warrant Agent shall act solely as the agent of the Warrantholders hereunder. The Warrant Agent shall not be liable except for the failure to perform such duties as are specifically set forth herein, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into these Call Warrants against the Warrant Agent, whose duties shall be determined solely by the express provisions hereof. The Warrant Agent shall not be deemed to be a fiduciary.







(j)          The Warrant Agent shall not have any duty to calculate or determine any adjustments with respect either to the Warrant Exercise Purchase Price or to the kind and amount of property receivable by holders of Call Warrants upon the exercise thereof.







(k)         The Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for any failure on the part of the Trustee to comply with any of its covenants and obligations contained herein.







(l)          The Warrant Agent shall not be under any obligation or duty to institute, appear in or defend any action, suit or legal proceeding in respect hereof, unless first indemnified to its satisfaction, but this provision shall not affect the power of the Warrant Agent to take such action as the Warrant Agent may consider proper, whether with or without such indemnity. The Warrant Agent shall promptly notify the Trustor and the Trustee in writing of any claim made or action, suit or proceeding instituted against it arising out of or in connection with these Call Warrants.

(m)        The Trustee will perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be performed, executed, acknowledged and delivered all such further acts, instruments and assurances as may be required by the Warrant Agent in order to enable it to carry out or perform its duties hereunder.







Section V.3.    Change of Warrant Agent.  The Warrant Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties hereunder upon thirty (30) days notice in writing mailed to the Trustor and the Trustee by registered or certified mail, and to the holders of the Call Warrants by first-class mail at the expense of the Trustor; provided that no such resignation or discharge shall become effective until a successor Warrant Agent shall have been appointed hereunder. The Trustor may remove the Warrant Agent or any successor Warrant Agent upon thirty (30) days notice in writing, mailed to the Warrant Agent or successor Warrant Agent, as the case may be, and to the holders of the Call Warrants by first-class mail; provided further that no such removal shall become effective until a successor Warrant Agent shall have been appointed hereunder. If the Warrant Agent shall resign or be removed or shall otherwise become incapable of acting, the Trustor shall promptly appoint a successor to the Warrant Agent, which may be designated as an interim Warrant Agent. If an interim Warrant Agent is designated, the Trustor shall then appoint a permanent successor to the Warrant Agent, which may be the interim Warrant Agent. If the Trustor shall fail to make such appointment of a permanent successor within a period of thirty (30) days after such removal or within sixty (60) days after notification in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the resigning or incapacitated Warrant Agent or by the holder of a Call Warrant, then the Warrant Agent or registered holder of any Warrant may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of such a successor. Any successor to the Warrant Agent (or any parent of such successor) appointed hereunder must have long-term unsecured debt obligations that are rated in one of the four highest rating categories by the Rating Agency. Any entity which may be merged or consolidated with or which shall otherwise succeed to substantially all of the trust or agency business of the Warrant Agent shall be deemed to be the successor Warrant Agent without any further action.  The holders of more than 50% of the outstanding Call Warrants, by an instrument delivered to the Trustor and the Warrant Agent in writing, shall have the right to object to, and by objecting shall thereby prevent the occurrence of, any proposed action by the Trustor under this Section V.3.

Ladies and Gentlemen:







In connection with our proposed purchase of [insert number] of the Call Warrants dated _______________, issued with respect to $_______________ principal amount of [_________], due [____] due _______________, CUSIP _______________, (the “Call Warrants”), the investor on whose behalf the undersigned is executing this letter (the “Purchaser”) confirms that:







(1)          The Purchaser has received a copy of such 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 Trustor, concerning the terms and conditions of the Call Warrants.  The Purchaser has received and understands the above, and understands that substantial risks are involved in an investment in the Call Warrants.  The Purchaser represents that in making its investment decision to acquire the Call Warrants, the Purchaser has not relied on representations, warranties, opinions, projections, financial or other information or analysis, if any, supplied to it by any person, including you, the Trustor or the Trustee referred to above or any of their affiliates.  The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Call Warrants, and the Purchaser is able to bear the substantial economic risks of such an investment.  The Purchaser has relied upon its own tax, legal and financial advisors in connection with its decision to purchase the Call Warrants.







(2)          The Purchaser is (A) a “Qualified Institutional Buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”)) and (B) acquiring the Call Warrants for its own account or for the account of an investor of the type described in clause (A) above as to which the Purchaser exercises sole investment discretion.  The Purchaser is purchasing the Call Warrants 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.
















  





Exhibit III-1











  








(3)          The Purchaser understands that the Call Warrants 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 if it decides to resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Call Warrants, such Call Warrants may be resold, pledged or transferred without registration only to an entity that has delivered to the Trustor and the Trustee a certification in the form of this letter.  The Purchaser understands that (i) any transference of the Call Warrants must be to an entity that the Purchaser reasonably believes to be a Qualified Institutional Buyer that purchases (1) for its own account or (2) for the account of such a Qualified Institutional Buyer, that is, in either case, aware that the resale, pledge or transfer is being made in reliance on said Rule 144A under the 1933 Act and (ii) it will, and each subsequent holder will be required to, notify any purchaser of the Call Warrants from it of the resale restrictions referred to herein.







(4)          The Purchaser understands that the Call Warrants will bear a legend to the following effect, unless otherwise agreed by the Trustor and the Trustee:







“THESE CALL WARRANTS HAVE 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 THE EXEMPTION THEREFROM UNDER SUCH ACT PROVIDED PURSUANT TO RULE 144A THEREUNDER.  THE CALL WARRANTS REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE CONDITIONS SPECIFIED IN THESE CALL WARRANTS INCLUDING THE DELIVERY OF AN INVESTMENT LETTER IN THE FORM ATTACHED HERETO.  EACH PROSPECTIVE TRANSFEREE OF THESE CALL WARRANTS SHALL BE REQUIRED TO REPRESENT THAT IT IS (A) A “QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A) AND (B) ACQUIRING THE CALL WARRANT FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF AN INVESTOR OF THE TYPE DESCRIBED IN CLAUSE (A) ABOVE AS TO WHICH THE TRANSFEREE EXERCISES SOLE INVESTMENT DISCRETION.”







(5)          The Purchaser agrees that if at some time in the future it wishes to transfer or exchange the Call Warrants, it will not transfer or exchange the Call Warrants unless such transfer or exchange is in accordance with Section 3.2 of the Warrant Agent Agreement.  The Purchaser understands that any purported transfer of the Call Warrants in contravention of any of the restrictions and conditions in the Warrant Agent Agreement, shall be void, and the purported transferee in such transfer shall not be recognized by the Trust or any other Person as a Warrantholder.







(6)          The Purchaser understands that the Call Warrants may be transferred in minimum amounts equal to $500,000 initial amount, and in increments of $[10,000] in excess thereof.







You and the Warrant Agent are entitled to rely upon this letter and 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.
