    FIRST
AMENDMENT

     

    TO
THE RURAL CELLULAR CORPORATION

     

    KEY
EMPLOYEE

     

    DEFERRED
COMPENSATION PLAN II

     

    Effective
as of January 1, 2005, Rural Cellular Corporation (the “Company”) established
the Rural Cellular Corporation Key Employee Deferred Compensation Plan II (the
“Plan”), which Plan is now in full force and effect.  The Compensation
Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors now wishes to make certain changes
to the Plan and, to accomplish that purpose, it has adopted the following
amendments to the Plan:

     

    
      	
              1.  

            	
              The
      first sentence of Section 1.4 of the Plan (“Change in Control”) is amended
      in its entirety, to read as
follows:

            

    

     

    “A Change
in Control shall occur upon the occurrence of a Change in the Ownership of the
Company, a Change in Effective Control of the Company, or a Change in Ownership
of the Company’s Assets.”

     

    
      	
              2.  

            	
              A
      new Section 4.8 is added at the end of Article 4 of the Plan, to read as
      follows:

            

    

     

    “4.8           Payment upon a Change in
Control.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Article IV or of any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, and
notwithstanding any contrary election made by a Participant, payment of a
Participant’s Deferred Compensation shall be made to the Participant in a lump
sum within five days after the occurrence of a Change in Control; provided,
that: (a) no payments shall be made pursuant to this Section 4.8 before January
1, 2008; and (b) this Section 4.8 shall not be applied to delay any payment that
would otherwise have been made in 2007.”

     

    This
amendment is effective as of December 31, 2007, and it shall be applicable with
respect to a Change in Control that occurs on, or after that
date.  The changes made by this amendment are intended to qualify for
the transitional relief set forth in Q&A-19(c) of IRS Notice 2005-1, as
amended and clarified by IRS Notices 2006-79 and 2007-86, and they shall be
interpreted, administered and construed consistent with said
intent.

     

    IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the
Company has caused this instrument to be executed by its duly authorized
officer, this ____ of ___________________, 2007.

    CONVEYANCE
OF THE UNDERLYING SECURITIES; ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF GRANTOR TRUST
CERTIFICATES

     

    Section
2.01. Conveyance of the Underlying
Securities.

     

    (a) The
Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does hereby
sell, transfer, assign, set-over and otherwise convey to the Grantor Trust
Trustee, in trust, for the use and benefit of the Grantor Trust
Certificateholders, without recourse, all the right, title and interest of the
Depositor in and to (i) the Underlying Securities, (ii) the Purchase Agreement
and (iii) all other assets constituting the Trust Fund.  Such
assignment includes, without limitation, all amounts payable on the Underlying
Securities pursuant to the Underlying Agreement following the Closing
Date.

     

    (b) In
connection with such transfer and assignment, and concurrently with its
execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Depositor shall have caused the
Underlying Securities to be registered in the book-entry records of the
Depository in the name of the Grantor Trust Trustee or its nominee.

     

    (c) The
transfer of the Underlying Securities and all other assets constituting the
Trust Fund is absolute and is intended by the parties hereto as a
sale.

     

    (d) It is
intended that the conveyances by the Depositor to the Grantor Trust Trustee of
the Underlying Securities as provided for in this Section 2.01 be construed as a
sale by the Depositor to the Grantor Trust Trustee of the Underlying Securities
for the benefit of the Grantor Trust Certificateholders.  Further, it
is not intended that any such conveyance be deemed to be a pledge of the
Underlying Securities by the Depositor to the Grantor Trust Trustee to secure a
debt or other obligation of the Depositor.  However, in the event that
the Underlying Securities are held to be property of the Depositor, or if for
any reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in the
Underlying Securities, then it is intended that (a) this Agreement shall also be
deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the
New York Uniform Commercial Code and the Uniform Commercial Code of any other
applicable jurisdiction; (b) the conveyance provided for in Section 2.01 shall
be deemed to be a grant by the Depositor to the Grantor Trust Trustee of a
security interest in all of the Depositor’s right (including the power to convey
title thereto), title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in
and to (1) the Underlying Securities, (2) all amounts payable on the Underlying
Securities in accordance with the terms thereof and (3) any and all general
intangibles consisting of, arising from or relating to any of the foregoing, and
all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into
cash, instruments, securities or other property, including without limitation
all amounts from time to time held in the Certificate Account, whether in the
form of cash, instruments, securities or other property; (c) the possession by
the Grantor Trust Trustee or any agent of the Grantor Trust Trustee of such
items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or
chattel paper shall be deemed to be “possession by the secured party,” or
possession by a purchaser or a person designated by such secured party, for
purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the New York Uniform
Commercial Code and the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable
jurisdiction; and (d) notifications to persons holding such property, and
acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property,
shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations
from, financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Grantor
Trust Trustee for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under
applicable law.  It is also intended that the Trust be classified for
federal income tax purposes as a grantor trust under Subpart E, part I of
subchapter J of chapter 1 of the Code, of which the Grantor Trust
Certificateholders are owners, rather than a partnership, an association taxable
as a corporation or a taxable mortgage pool.  The powers granted and
obligations undertaken in this Agreement shall be construed so as to further
such intent.

     

    The
Depositor and the Grantor Trust Trustee, at the Depositor’s or the Majority
Grantor Trust Certificateholders’ direction, shall, to the extent consistent
with this Agreement, take such reasonable actions as may be determined to be
necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security
interest in the Underlying Securities, and the other property described above,
such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of
first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout
the term of this Agreement.

     

    Section
2.02. Acceptance of Trust Fund by
Grantor Trust Trustee; Initial Issuance of Grantor Trust
Certificates.

     

    The
Grantor Trust Trustee acknowledges receipt of the Underlying Agreement and the
receipt by it and the transfer, delivery and assignment to it of the Underlying
Securities, in good faith and without notice of any adverse claim, and the
assignment to it of all other assets included in the Trust Fund and declares
that it holds and will hold the Underlying Securities and all other assets
included in the Trust Fund in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all
present and future Grantor Trust Certificateholders in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement.  Concurrently with such transfer, delivery and
assignment and in exchange therefor, pursuant to the written request of the
Depositor executed by an officer of the Depositor, the Grantor Trust Trustee has
executed and caused to be authenticated and delivered to or upon the order of
the Depositor, the Grantor Trust Certificates in authorized denominations
evidencing the entire beneficial ownership of the Trust Fund.

     

    Until the
Trust Fund is terminated in accordance with Section 7.01, except as provided
herein, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall not assign, sell, dispose of or transfer
any interest in the Underlying Securities or any other asset constituting the
Trust Fund or permit the Underlying Securities or any other asset constituting
the Trust Fund to be subjected to any lien, claim or encumbrance arising by,
through or under the Grantor Trust Trustee or any person claiming by, through or
under the Grantor Trust Trustee.

are not outstanding, (3) are not the legal, valid, binding and enforceable
obligation of the underlying trust, and (4) are not entitled to the benefits of

the benefit of the Grantor Trust Certificateholders, as of the Closing Date,

Trust.  The Trust created hereby is intended to qualify as an
“investment trust” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation §301.7701-4(c), and
it is neither the purpose nor the intent of the parties hereto to create a

corporation between or among the Grantor Trust Certificateholders, the Grantor
Trust Trustee or the Depositor.  In furtherance of the foregoing, the
purpose of the Trust shall be to protect and conserve the assets of the Trust,
and the Trust shall not at any time engage in or carry on any kind of business
or any kind of commercial or investment activity.  Subject to the

Person have any duty, responsibility or power to vary the investment of the
Grantor Trust Certificateholders in the Grantor Trust Certificates or to
substitute new investments or reinvest so as to enable the Trust to take
advantage of variations in the market to improve the investment of the Grantor
Trust Certificateholders in the Grantor Trust Certificates.

    If at any
time the Grantor Trust Trustee, as a holder of the Underlying Securities, is
requested in such capacity, whether by a Grantor Trust Certificateholder, a
holder of a certificate of the Underlying Series or a party to the Underlying
Agreement or any other Person, to take any action or to give any consent,
approval or waiver, including, without limitation, in connection with an

connection with the exercise and/or enforcement of any rights and/or remedies
available to it in such capacity with respect to such request, as the Majority
Grantor Trust Certificateholder of the Grantor Trust Certificates shall direct
in writing.

     

    Section
3.02. Collection of
Monies.

     

    (a) In
connection with its receipt of any distribution on the Underlying Securities on
any Underlying Security Distribution Date, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall
review the related Underlying Distribution Date Statement and shall confirm that
the aggregate amount of such distribution received by it with respect to the
Underlying Securities is consistent with the Underlying Distribution Date
Statements (it being understood that the Grantor Trust Trustee shall be entitled
to rely on the accuracy and correctness of the Underlying Distribution Date
Statements).

     

    (b) If the
Grantor Trust Trustee receives a Notice of Final Distribution in respect of any
Underlying Security, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall present and surrender the
related Underlying Security which is in certificated form for final payment
thereon, if required, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the
Underlying Agreement and such notice.  The Grantor Trust Trustee shall

    Section
3.03. Establishment of the

    (a) The
Grantor Trust Trustee, for the benefit of the Grantor Trust Certificateholders,
shall establish and maintain one or more interest bearing trust accounts
(collectively, the “Certificate
Account”), each of which shall be an Eligible Account, entitled “Wells
Fargo Bank, N.A., as grantor trust trustee for the registered Holders of Bear
Stearns Structured Products Inc. Trust 2007-R3, Grantor Trust Certificates,
Series 2007-R3,” held in trust by the Grantor Trust Trustee for the benefit of
the Grantor Trust Certificateholders with respect to the portion of such
accounts in the Trust Fund.  The Grantor Trust Trustee shall cause to
be deposited directly into the Certificate Account all distributions received on
the Underlying Securities by the Grantor Trust Trustee, from whatever source,
and all amounts received by it representing payment of a Repurchase Price
pursuant to Section 2.03(c), subsequent to the Closing Date.  The
Certificate Account is initially located at the Grantor Trust
Trustee.  The Grantor Trust Trustee shall give notice to the Depositor
and to the Grantor Trust Certificateholders of any new location of the
Certificate Account prior to any change thereof.

     

    (b) In the
event that payments in respect of the Underlying Securities are received by the
Grantor Trust Trustee prior to the related Distribution Date, the Grantor Trust
Trustee may invest such funds deposited in the Certificate Account in one or
more Permitted Investments held in the name of the Grantor Trust Trustee and
shall receive as compensation, any interest or investment income earned on such
Permitted Investments, which may be withdrawn by the Grantor Trust Trustee on
each Distribution Date and shall not constitute Available Funds. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no such Permitted Investment may mature later than such related
Distribution Date and no such investment shall be sold prior to its maturity
date. The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments shall
be deposited in the Certificate Account by the Grantor Trust Trustee immediately
as realized out of its own funds.

     

    (c) The
Depositor shall cause all distributions received on the Underlying Securities by
the Depositor or any of its Affiliates after the Closing Date to be remitted
promptly to the Grantor Trust Trustee for deposit into the Certificate
Account.

and

     

    (iv) to pay

Certificate Account and shall use such funds withdrawn from the Certificate
Account only for the purposes described in this Section 3.04 and in Section
3.05.

Grantor Trust Certificates for such Distribution Date; and

     

    (ii) from

    (b) With
respect to the second Distribution Date, the Reserve Account Deposit Portion B
remaining following distributions on such Distribution Date will be distributed
to the Class A-1 Grantor Trust Certificates on such Distribution Date as
interest.

     

    (c) All distributions made to Holders of the
Grantor Trust Certificates pursuant to Sections 3.05(a) and (b) on each
Distribution Date shall be allocated prorata among the
outstanding Grantor Trust Certificates based upon their respective Percentage
Interests and, except in the case of the final distribution to the Holders of
the Grantor Trust Certificates, shall be made to the Holders of record on the
related Record Date.  Distributions to any Grantor Trust
Certificateholder on any Distribution Date shall be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the account of such Grantor Trust
Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities
therefor, if such Grantor Trust Certificateholder shall have so notified the
Grantor Trust Trustee in writing (which wiring instructions may be in the form
of a standing order applicable to all future Distribution Dates) no less than
five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (or, in the case of the
initial Distribution Date, no later than the related Record Date) and is the
registered owner of Grantor Trust Certificates with an aggregate initial Current
Principal Amount of not less than $1,000,000, or otherwise by check mailed by
first class mail to the address of such Grantor Trust Certificateholder
appearing in the Certificate Register.  Final distribution to each
Grantor Trust Certificateholder will be made in like manner, but only upon
presentment and surrender of such Grantor Trust Certificate at the Corporate
Trust Office or such other location specified in the notice to Grantor Trust
Certificateholders of such final distribution.

     

    (d) Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall comply
with all federal withholding requirements respecting payments to Grantor Trust
Certificateholders of interest or the accrual of discount that the Grantor Trust
Trustee reasonably believes are applicable under the Code.  The
consent of Grantor Trust Certificateholders shall not be required for such
withholding.  In the event the Grantor Trust Trustee does withhold any
amount from payments to any Grantor Trust Certificateholder pursuant to federal
withholding requirements, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall indicate the amount
withheld to such Grantor Trust Certificateholders.

     

    (e) Realized
Losses.  On any Distribution Date, following distributions to
be made on that Distribution Date, any Realized Losses (as defined in the
Underlying Agreement) allocated to the Underlying Securities shall be allocated
to the Class A-1 Grantor Trust Certificates, until the Current Principal Amount
thereof has been reduced to zero.  Realized Losses shall be allocated
prorata among the
outstanding Grantor Trust Certificates based upon their respective Percentage
Interests.

     

    Section
3.06. Statements to Grantor Trust
Certificateholders.

     

    On each
Distribution Date, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall prepare and make available to
each Grantor Trust Certificateholder, the Depositor and the Rating Agency, on
its website, a statement with respect to such Distribution Date,
stating:

     

    (i) the
Available Funds for such Distribution Date, including the cash flows received
and the sources thereof for distributions;

     

    (ii) the
Interest Distribution Amount and the Reserve Account Distribution Amount and the
portion thereof, if any, provided by the Yield Maintenance Agreement with
respect to the second Distribution Date only, and the amount with respect to
principal paid on the Grantor Trust Certificates with respect to such
Distribution Date;

     

    (iii) the
Current Principal Amount of the Grantor Trust Certificates before and after
applying payments on such Distribution Date;

     

    (iv) the
applicable record dates, accrual dates and actual Distribution Dates for the
period;

     

    (v) the
Pass-Through Rate on the Grantor Trust Certificates for such Distribution Date;
and

     

    (vi) the
interest rate on the Underlying Securities for such Distribution
Date.

     

    In the
case of the information furnished pursuant to clause (ii) above, the amounts
shall also be expressed as a dollar amount per $100,000 of principal face
amount.

     

    The
Grantor Trust Trustee may make available each month, to any interested party,
the monthly statement to Grantor Trust Certificateholders via the Grantor Trust
Trustee’s website initially located at www.ctslink.com.
Assistance in using the website can be obtained by calling the Grantor Trust
Trustee’s customer service desk at (866) 846-4526. Parties that are unable to
use the above distribution option are entitled to have a paper copy mailed to
them via first class mail by calling the Grantor Trust Trustee’s customer
service desk and indicating such. The Grantor Trust Trustee shall have the right
to change the way such reports are distributed in order to make such
distribution more convenient and/or more accessible to the parties, and the
Grantor Trust Trustee shall provide timely and adequate notification to all
parties regarding any such change.

     

    In
addition, the Grantor Trust Trustee promptly will furnish to the Depositor, and
upon the written request of a Grantor Trust Certificateholder, to such Grantor
Trust Certificateholder, copies of any written notices, statements, reports or
other written communications, received by the Grantor Trust Trustee in respect
of the Underlying Securities.

     

    The
Grantor Trust Trustee shall be responsible for preparing, at its own expense,
executing and filing in a timely manner, on behalf of the Trust Fund and for the
Trust Fund as a grantor trust under the Code, federal income tax and information
returns and reports with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and income tax and
information returns and reports of any other state or local taxing authority as
are required to be so filed, using a calendar year as the taxable year of the
Trust on an accrual basis including the information reportable under the WHFIT
Regulations as provided below. The Depositor and each Holder of the Grantor
Trust Certificates shall provide the Grantor Trust Trustee, no later than
December 31, 2007 (to the extent then ascertainable) and from time to time
thereafter, all information deemed necessary and requested by the Grantor Trust
Trustee to fulfill its obligations under this paragraph and the paragraphs
below. The Grantor Trust Trustee shall furnish to each Grantor Trust
Certificateholder at the time required by law such information reports or
returns as are required by applicable federal, state or local law with respect
to the Trust Fund to enable Grantor Trust Certificateholders to prepare their
tax returns and will furnish comparable information to the IRS and other taxing
authorities as and when required by law to do so.

     

    The
parties hereto and each Holder of a Grantor Trust Certificate, by acceptance of
its interest in such Grantor Trust Certificate, agree to treat the Trust Fund as
a WHFIT that is a NMWHFIT. The Grantor Trust Trustee shall report as required
under the WHFIT Regulations to the extent such information as is reasonably
necessary and requested by the Grantor Trust Trustee to enable the Grantor Trust
Trustee to do so is provided to the Grantor Trust Trustee on a timely
basis.  Each Holder of Grantor Trust Certificates and the Depositor
shall provide (to the extent known by the Depositor) the Grantor Trust Trustee
with information identifying any Holders of Grantor Trust Certificates that are
“middlemen” as defined by the WHFIT Regulations.  The Grantor Trust
Trustee shall not be liable for any tax reporting penalties that may arise under
the WHFIT Regulations as a result of the incorrect determination of the status
of the Trust Fund as a WHFIT.

     

    The
Grantor Trust Trustee, in its discretion, shall report required WHFIT
information using either the cash or accrual method, except to the extent the
WHFIT Regulations specifically require a different method.  The
Grantor Trust Trustee shall be under no obligation to determine whether a Holder
of a Grantor Trust Certificate uses the cash or accrual method.  The
Grantor Trust Trustee shall make available WHFIT information to the Holders of
Grantor Trust Certificates annually in accordance with the WHFIT
Regulations.  In addition, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall not be
responsible or liable for providing subsequently amended, revised or updated
information to any Holder of Grantor Trust Certificates, unless requested by any
such Holder.

     

    The
Grantor Trust Trustee shall not be liable for failure to meet the reporting
requirements of the WHFIT Regulations nor for any penalties thereunder if such
failure is due to: (i) the lack of reasonably necessary information being
provided to the Grantor Trust Trustee as required in the second preceding
paragraph, (ii) incomplete, inaccurate or untimely information being provided to
the Grantor Trust Trustee or (iii) the inability of the Grantor Trust Trustee,
after good faith efforts, to alter its existing information reporting systems to
capture information necessary to fully account for any updates and revisions to
the WHFIT Regulations for the 2007 calendar year.  Each Holder of a
Grantor Trust Certificate, by acceptance of its interest in such Grantor Trust
Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed to provide, and shall so provide,
the Grantor Trust Trustee with information regarding any sale of such Grantor
Trust Certificate, including the price, amount of proceeds and date of
sale.  Absent receipt of such information, and unless informed
otherwise by the Depositor, the Grantor Trust Trustee will assume there is no
secondary market trading of interests in the Trust Fund for purposes of the
WHFIT Regulations.

     

    To the
extent required by the WHFIT Regulations, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall
publish on an appropriate website the CUSIPs for the Grantor Trust
Certificates.  The Grantor Trust Trustee shall make reasonable good
faith efforts to keep the website accurate and updated to the extent CUSIPs have
been received.  Absent the receipt of a CUSIP, the Grantor Trust
Trustee shall use a reasonable identifier number in lieu of such missing
CUSIP.  The Grantor Trust Trustee shall not be liable for investor
reporting delays that result from the receipt of inaccurate or untimely CUSIP
information.

     

    The
Grantor Trust Trustee shall be entitled to additional reasonable compensation
for changes in reporting required in respect of the WHFIT Regulations that arise
as a result of a change in the WHFIT Regulations or a change in interpretation
of the WHFIT Regulations by the IRS or the Depositor or its counsel, in each
case, following the Closing Date, if such change requires, in the Grantor Trust
Trustee’s sole discretion, a material increase in the Grantor Trust Trustee’s
reporting obligations under the WHFIT Regulations in respect of the Trust
Fund.

     

    Section
3.07. Access to Certain
Documentation and Information.

     

    The
Grantor Trust Trustee shall provide to the Depositor access to all reports,
documents and records maintained by the Grantor Trust Trustee in respect of its
duties hereunder, such access being afforded without charge but only upon three
(3) Business Days’ written request and during normal business hours at offices
designated by the Grantor Trust Trustee.

     

    Section
3.08. Calculation of Distribution
Amounts.

     

    All
calculations of Available Funds, the Interest Distribution Amount, the Reserve
Account Distribution Amount and amounts payable with respect to principal for
any Distribution Date shall be performed by the Grantor Trust Trustee in
reliance on the information provided to it in the Underlying Distribution Date
Statements.

     

    Section
3.09. Annual Statement as to
Compliance.

     

    (a) The
Grantor Trust Trustee shall deliver (or otherwise make available) to the
Depositor not later than March 15th of each calendar year in which a Form 10-K
is required to be filed for the Trust beginning in 2008, an Officer’s
Certificate (an “Annual Statement of Compliance”) stating, as to the signatory
thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Grantor Trust Trustee during
the preceding calendar year and of its performance under this Agreement has been
made under such officer’s supervision and (ii) to the best of such officer’s
knowledge, based on such review, the Grantor Trust Trustee has fulfilled all of
its obligations under this Agreement in all material respects throughout such
year or applicable portion thereof, or, if there has been a failure to fulfill
any such obligation in any material respect, specifying each such failure known
to such officer and the nature and status of the cure provisions
thereof.  Such Annual Statement of Compliance shall contain no
restrictions or limitations on its use.

     

    (b) Failure
of the Grantor Trust Trustee to comply with this Section 3.09 (including with
respect to the timeframes required in this Section) which failure results in a
failure to timely file the related Form 10-K, shall, upon written notice from
the Depositor, constitute a default, and, in addition to whatever rights the
Depositor may have under this Agreement and at law or equity or to damages,
including injunctive relief and specific performance, the Depositor may upon
notice immediately terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Grantor
Trust Trustee under this Agreement and in and to the Underlying Securities and
the proceeds thereof without compensating the Grantor Trust Trustee for the same
(but subject to the Grantor Trust Trustee’s right to reimbursement of all
amounts for which it is entitled to be reimbursed prior to the date of
termination).  This paragraph shall supersede any other provision in
this Agreement or any other agreement to the contrary.

     

    Section
3.10. Assessments of Compliance
and Attestation Reports.

     

    Pursuant
to Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB,
the Grantor Trust Trustee (the “Attesting Party”) shall deliver (or otherwise
make available) to the Depositor on or before March 15th of each calendar year
in which a report on Form 10-K is required to be filed with the Commission with
respect to the Grantor Trust Certificates, beginning in 2008, a report regarding
the Attesting Party’s assessment of compliance (an “Assessment of Compliance”)
with the Servicing Criteria applicable to it during the preceding calendar
year.  The Assessment of Compliance, as set forth in Regulation AB,
must contain the following:

     

    (a)           
A statement by an authorized officer of the Attesting Party of its authority and
responsibility for assessing compliance with the Servicing Criteria applicable
to the Attesting Party;

     

    (b)           
A statement by an authorized officer that the Attesting Party used the Servicing
Criteria identified in Exhibit C hereto to assess compliance with the Servicing
Criteria applicable to the Attesting Party;

     

    (c)           
An assessment by such officer of the Attesting Party’s compliance with the
applicable Servicing Criteria for the period consisting of the preceding
calendar year, including disclosure of any material instance of noncompliance
with respect thereto during such period, which assessment shall be based on the
activities the Attesting Party performs with respect to asset-backed securities
transactions taken as a whole involving the Attesting Party, that are backed by
the same asset type as those backing the Underlying Securities;

     

    (d)           
A statement that a registered public accounting firm has issued an attestation
report on the Attesting Party’s Assessment of Compliance for the period
consisting of the preceding calendar year; and

     

    (e)           
A statement as to which of the Servicing Criteria, if any, are not applicable to
the Attesting Party, which statement shall be based on the activities the
Attesting Party performs with respect to asset-backed securities transactions
taken as a whole involving the Attesting Party, that are backed by the same
asset type as those backing the Grantor Trust Certificates.

     

    Such
report at a minimum shall address each of the Servicing Criteria specified on
Exhibit C hereto which are indicated as applicable to the Attesting
Party.

     

    On or
before March 15th of each calendar year in which a report on Form 10-K is
required to be filed with the Commission with respect to the Grantor Trust
Certificates, beginning in 2008, the Attesting Party shall furnish to the
Depositor a report (an “Attestation Report”) by a registered public accounting
firm that attests to, and reports on, the Assessment of Compliance made by the
Attesting Party, as required by Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and
Item 1122(b) of Regulation AB, which Attestation Report must be made in
accordance with standards for attestation reports issued or adopted by the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.

     

    Each
party to the Underlying Series that is determined by the Depositor to be
“participating in the servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of
Regulation AB will be required to provide to the Grantor Trust Trustee and the
Depositor an assessment of compliance and attestation report pursuant to the
Underlying Agreement. The Depositor, in its capacity as depositor for the
Underlying Series, shall forward any assessment of compliance and attestation
report to the Grantor Trust Trustee to the extent not otherwise received by the
Grantor Trust Trustee (pursuant to the Underlying Agreement in its capacity as
master servicer and securities administrator of the Underlying Series) and any
other assessment of compliance and attestation report required to be filed under
the related Form 10-K no later than two Business Days following March 15th in any
calendar year in which a Form 10-K is required to be filed by the Trust. The
Depositor will identify in writing by no later than January 30th of each
year for which a Form 10-K is required to be filed for the Trust and provide any
assessment of compliance and attestation report to the Grantor Trust Trustee
required to be included in any Form 10-K to the extent not otherwise received by
the Grantor Trust Trustee as set forth in the previous sentence and cause such
assessment of compliance and attestation reports that are required to be
included in such Form 10-K to be incorporated by reference.

     

    The
Depositor shall confirm that each Assessment of Compliance delivered to it
addresses all of the relevant Servicing Criteria and notify the Grantor Trust
Trustee of any exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as to any
subcontractor, an Assessment of Compliance is not required to be delivered
unless it is required as part of a Form 10-K with respect to the Trust
Fund.

     

    Failure
of the Grantor Trust Trustee to comply with this Section 3.10 (including with
respect to the timeframes required in this Section) which failure results in a
failure to timely file the related Form 10-K, shall, upon written notice from
the Depositor, constitute a default and the Depositor shall, in addition to
whatever rights the Depositor may have under this Agreement and at law or equity
or to damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance, upon notice
immediately terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Grantor Trust
Trustee under this Agreement and in and to the Underlying Securities and the
proceeds thereof without compensating the Grantor Trust Trustee for the same
(but subject to the Grantor Trust Trustee’s right to reimbursement of all
amounts for which it is entitled to be reimbursed prior to the date of
termination).  This paragraph shall supersede any other provision in
this Agreement or any other agreement to the contrary.

     

    Section
3.11. Reports Filed with
Securities and Exchange Commission.

     

    (a)           
(i) (A) Within 15 days after each Distribution Date, for so long as the Trust is
subject to Exchange Act reporting requirements, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall,
in accordance with industry standards, prepare and file with the Commission via
the Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System (“EDGAR”), a Distribution
Report on Form 10-D, signed by the Depositor, with a copy of the monthly
statement to be furnished by the Grantor Trust Trustee to the Grantor Trust
Certificateholders for such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 3.06 hereof,
including any monthly statement with respect to the Underlying Series, and the
Depositor shall incorporate by reference the related monthly statement included
in the Form 10-D filed for the Underlying Series; provided that, the Grantor
Trust Trustee shall have received no later than five (5) calendar days after the
related Distribution Date, all information required to be provided to the
Grantor Trust Trustee as described in clause (a)(iv) below.  Any
disclosure that is in addition to the monthly statement and that is required to
be included on Form 10-D, including any information that is otherwise required
to be provided or incorporated by reference as instructed by the Depositor
(“Additional Form 10-D Disclosure”), shall be, pursuant to the paragraph (B)
below, reported by the parties set forth on Exhibit D to the Grantor Trust
Trustee, or otherwise provided by the Depositor with respect to any information
required to be provided pursuant to Item 1117 or Item 1119 of Regulation AB, and
the Depositor and approved for inclusion by the Depositor. The Grantor Trust
Trustee will have no duty or liability for any failure hereunder to determine or
prepare any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure absent such reporting (other than in
the case where the Grantor Trust Trustee is the reporting party as set forth in
Exhibit D) and approval.

     

    Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement or the Underlying Agreement to the contrary, the
Grantor Trust Trustee, as master servicer and securities administrator for the
Underlying Series, shall aggregate and make available to the Depositor all
information provided pursuant to Item 1121 of Regulation AB with respect to the
Underlying Series for purposes of including such information in each Form 10-D
that is required to be filed under this Agreement.

     

    (B)
Within five (5) calendar days after the related Distribution Date, (i) the
parties set forth in Exhibit D and the parties related to the Underlying Series
and required to provide information pursuant to the Underlying Agreement shall
be required to provide, pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iv) below, to the Grantor
Trust Trustee and the Depositor, to the extent known by a responsible officer
thereof, in EDGAR-compatible format, or in such other form as otherwise agreed
upon by the Grantor Trust Trustee and the Depositor and such party, the form and
substance of any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, if applicable and (ii) the
Depositor shall approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case
may be, the inclusion of the Additional Form 10-D Disclosure on Form 10-D. To
the extent not otherwise required under the Underlying Agreement, the Depositor
shall provide to the Grantor Trust Trustee any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure
(other than any information required under Item 1121 of Regulation AB) for any
servicer or trustee of the Underlying Series. The Depositor shall be responsible
for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or incurred by the Grantor Trust
Trustee in connection with including any Form 10-D Disclosure Information on
Form 10-D pursuant to this Section.

     

    (C) After
preparing the Form 10-D, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall forward electronically
a copy of the Form 10-D to the Depositor for review.  Within two (2)
Business Days after receipt of such copy, but no later than the 12th calendar
day after the Distribution Date (provided that, the Grantor Trust Trustee
forwards a copy of the Form 10-D no later than the 10th calendar after the
Distribution Date), the Depositor shall notify the Grantor Trust Trustee in
writing (which may be furnished electronically) of any changes to or approval of
such Form 10-D.  In the absence of receipt of any written changes or
approval, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall be entitled to assume that such Form
10-D is in final form and the Grantor Trust Trustee may proceed with the filing
of the Form 10-D.  No later than the 13th calendar day after the
related Distribution Date, a duly authorized officer of the Depositor shall sign
the Form 10-D and return an electronic or fax copy of such signed Form 10-D
(with an original executed hard copy to follow by overnight mail) to the Grantor
Trust Trustee.  If a Form 10-D cannot be filed on time or if a
previously filed Form 10-D needs to be amended, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall
follow the procedures set forth in Section 3.11(a)(v). Promptly (but no later
than one (1) Business Day) after filing with the Commission, the Grantor Trust
Trustee shall make available on its internet website a final executed copy of
each Form 10-D filed by the Grantor Trust Trustee.  The parties to
this Agreement acknowledge that the performance by the Grantor Trust Trustee of
its duties under Sections 3.11(a)(i) and (v) related to the timely preparation,
execution and filing of Form 10-D is contingent upon such parties strictly
observing all applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties under such
Sections. The Grantor Trust Trustee shall not have any liability for any loss,
expense, damage, claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly
prepare and timely file such Form 10-D, where such failure results from the
Grantor Trust Trustee’s inability or failure to receive, on a timely basis, any
information from any other party hereto needed to prepare, arrange for execution
or file such Form 10-D, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct.

     

    Each of
Form 10-D and Form 10-K requires the registrant to indicate (by checking “yes”
or “no”) that it “(1) has filed all reports required to be filed by Section 13
or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter
period that the registrant was required to file such reports), and (2) has been
subject to such filing requirements for the past 90 days.”  The
Depositor hereby represents to the Grantor Trust Trustee that the Depositor has
filed all such required reports during the preceding twelve (12) months and it
has been subject to such filing requirements for the past 90
days.  The Depositor shall notify the Grantor Trust Trustee in
writing, no later than the fifth calendar day after the related Distribution
Date with respect to the filing of a report on Form 10-D and no later than March
15th
with respect to the filing of a report on Form 10-K, if the answer to the
questions should be “no.”  The Grantor Trust Trustee shall be entitled
to rely on such representations in preparing, executing and/or filing any such
report.

     

    (ii) (A)
Within four (4) Business Days after the occurrence of an event requiring
disclosure on Form 8-K (each such event, a “Reportable Event”), for so long as
the Trust is subject to Exchange Act reporting requirements, the Grantor Trust
Trustee shall prepare and file, at the direction of the Depositor, on behalf of
the Trust, any Form 8-K, as required by the Exchange Act; provided that, the
Depositor shall prepare and file the initial Form 8-K in connection with the
issuance of the Grantor Trust Certificates.  Any disclosure or
information related to a Reportable Event or that is otherwise required to be
included on Form 8-K, including information as otherwise required to be provided
or incorporated by reference as instructed by the Depositor (“Form 8-K
Disclosure Information”), shall be, pursuant to the paragraph immediately below,
reported by the parties set forth on Exhibit D and the parties related to the
Underlying Series pursuant to the Underlying Agreement to the Grantor Trust
Trustee and the Depositor and approved by the Depositor, and the Grantor Trust
Trustee will have no duty or liability for any failure hereunder to determine or
prepare any Additional Form 8-K Disclosure absent such reporting (other than in
the case where the Grantor Trust Trustee is the reporting party as set forth in
Exhibit D) and approval. To the extent not otherwise required under the
Underlying Agreement, the Depositor shall provide to the Grantor Trust Trustee,
by no later than the second (2nd)
Business Day after the Reportable Event, any Additional Form 8-K Disclosure for
any servicer or trustee of the Underlying Series required to be filed on Form
8-K.

     

    (B) For
so long as the Trust is subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements, no
later than the close of business New York City time on the second (2nd)
Business Day after the occurrence of a Reportable Event  (i) the
parties set forth in Exhibit D and parties related to the Underlying Series and
required to provide information pursuant to the Underlying Agreement shall be
required pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iv) below to provide to the Grantor Trust
Trustee and the Depositor, to the extent known by a responsible officer thereof,
in EDGAR-compatible format, or in such other form as otherwise agreed upon by
the Grantor Trust Trustee and the Depositor and such party, the form and
substance of any Form 8-K Disclosure Information, if applicable, and (ii) the
Depositor shall approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case
may be, the inclusion of the Form 8-K Disclosure Information on Form 8-K. The
Depositor shall be responsible for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or
incurred by the Grantor Trust Trustee in connection with including any Form 8-K
Disclosure Information on Form 8-K pursuant to this Section.

     

    (C) After
preparing the Form 8-K, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall forward electronically a
copy of the Form 8-K to the Depositor for review no later than noon New York
time on the third (3rd)
Business Day after the Reportable Event.  No later than the close of
business New York City time on the third (3rd)
Business Day after the Reportable Event, a duly authorized officer of the
Depositor shall sign the Form 8-K and return an electronic or fax copy of such
signed Form 8-K (with an original executed hard copy to follow by overnight
mail) to the Grantor Trust Trustee.  Promptly, but no later than the
close of business on the 3rd Business Day after the Reportable Event, the
Depositor shall notify the Grantor Trust Trustee in writing (which may be
furnished electronically) of any changes to or approval of such Form 8-K filed
by the Grantor Trust Trustee.  In the absence of receipt of any
written changes or approval, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall be entitled to
assume that such Form 8-K is in final form and the Grantor Trust Trustee may
proceed with the filing of the Form 8-K.  If a Form 8-K cannot be
filed on time or if a previously filed Form 8-K needs to be amended, the Grantor
Trust Trustee shall follow the procedures set forth in Section 3.11(a)(v).
Promptly (but no later than one (1) Business Day) after filing with the
Commission, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall make available on its internet
website a final executed copy of each Form 8-K filed by the Grantor Trust
Trustee.  The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the
performance by the Grantor Trust Trustee of its duties under this Section
3.11(a)(ii) related to the timely preparation, execution and filing of Form 8-K
is contingent upon such parties strictly observing all applicable deadlines in
the performance of their duties under this Section 3.11(a)(ii).  The
Grantor Trust Trustee shall have no liability for any loss, expense, damage,
claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare, execute
and/or timely file such Form 8-K, where such failure results from the Grantor
Trust Trustee’s inability or failure to receive, on a timely basis, any
information from any other party hereto needed to prepare, arrange for execution
or file such Form 8-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct.

     

    (iii) (A)
Within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Trust or such earlier
date as may be required by the Exchange Act (the “10-K Filing Deadline”) (it
being understood that the fiscal year for the Trust ends on December 31st of
each year), commencing in March 2008 and thereafter so long as the Trust is
subject to Exchange Act reporting requirements, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall
prepare and file on behalf of the Trust a Form 10-K, in form and substance as
required by the Exchange Act.  Each such Form 10-K shall include a
Sarbanes-Oxley Certification as described in Section 3.11 (a)(iii)(D) below to
the extent it has been delivered to the Grantor Trust Trustee within the
applicable time frame set forth in this Agreement. Any disclosure or information
in addition to information described in the preceding sentence that is required
to be included on Form 10-K, including the Form 10-K filed in connection with
the Underlying Series (“Additional Form 10-K Disclosure”) shall be, pursuant to
paragraph (B) below, reported by the parties set forth on Exhibit D and parties
related to the Underlying Series and required to provide information pursuant to
the Underlying Agreement to the Grantor Trust Trustee and the Depositor and
approved by the Depositor, and the Grantor Trust Trustee will have no duty or
liability for any failure hereunder to determine or prepare any Additional Form
10-K Disclosure absent such reporting (other than in the case where the Grantor
Trust Trustee is the reporting party as set forth in Exhibit D) and approval.
Such Form 10-K also shall incorporate by reference the Form 10-Ks filed with
respect to the Underlying Series.

     

    Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement or the Underlying Agreement to the contrary, the
Grantor Trustee shall aggregate all information provided by the parties related
to the Underlying Series pursuant to the Underlying Agreement or as otherwise
required to be provided by the Depositor or incorporated by reference as
instructed by the Depositor, to the Depositor or the Grantor Trust Trustee, and
shall include such information in any Form 10-K filed pursuant to this Agreement
to the extent such information is required to be included in such Form 10-K and
is received by the Grantor Trust Trustee.

     

    (B) No
later than March 15th of each year that the Trust is subject to the Exchange Act
reporting requirements, commencing in 2008, (i) the parties set forth in Exhibit
D and parties related to the Underlying Series and required to provide
information pursuant to the Underlying Agreement shall be required to provide
pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iv) below or the Underlying Agreement to the Grantor
Trust Trustee and the Depositor, to the extent known by a responsible officer
thereof, in EDGAR-compatible format, or in such other form as otherwise agreed
upon by the Grantor Trust Trustee and the Depositor and such party, the form and
substance of any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure, if applicable, and (ii) the
Depositor will approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case may
be, the inclusion of the Additional Form 10-K Disclosure on Form
10-K.  To the extent not otherwise required under the Underlying
Agreement, the Depositor shall provide to the Grantor Trust Trustee, by no later
than two Business Days after the date specified above, any Additional Form 10-K
Disclosure for any Servicer of the Underlying Series. The Depositor shall be
responsible for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or incurred by the
Grantor Trust Trustee in connection with including any Form 10-K Disclosure
information on Form 10-K pursuant to this Section.

     

    (C) After
preparing the Form 10-K, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall forward electronically
a copy of the Form 10-K to the Depositor for review.  Within three (3)
Business Days after receipt of such copy, but no later than March 25th of such
year, the Depositor shall notify the Grantor Trust Trustee in writing (which may
be furnished electronically) of any changes to or approval of such Form
10-K.  In the absence of receipt of any written changes or approval,
the Grantor Trust Trustee shall be entitled to assume that such Form 10-K is in
final form and the Grantor Trust Trustee may proceed with the filing of the Form
10-K.  No later than the close of business New York City time on the
4th Business Day prior to the 10-K Filing Deadline, a senior officer of the
Depositor shall sign the Form 10-K and return an electronic or fax copy of such
signed Form 10-K (with an original executed hard copy to follow by overnight
mail) to the Grantor Trust Trustee.  If a Form 10-K cannot be filed on
time or if a previously filed Form 10-K needs to be amended, the Grantor Trust
Trustee will follow the procedures set forth in Section
3.11(a)(v).  Promptly (but no later than one (1) Business Day) after
filing with the Commission, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall make available on
its internet website a final executed copy of each Form 10-K filed by the
Grantor Trust Trustee.  The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that
the performance by the Grantor Trust Trustee of its duties under Sections
3.11(a)(iii) and (v) related to the timely preparation, execution and filing of
Form 10-K is contingent upon such parties strictly observing all applicable
deadlines in the performance of their duties under such Sections and Section
3.09 and Section 3.10.  The Grantor Trust Trustee shall not have any
liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out of or with respect to
any failure to properly prepare, execute and/or timely file such Form 10-K,
where such failure results from the Grantor Trust Trustee’s inability or failure
to receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party hereto
needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 10-K, not resulting
from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

     

    (D) Each
Form 10-K shall include a certification (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Certification”)
required to be included therewith in compliance with Item 601(b)(31)(ii) of
Regulation S-K, which shall be signed by the Certifying Person and delivered to
the Grantor Trust Trustee no later than March 15th of each year in which the
Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange
Act.  The Grantor Trust Trustee shall provide to the Depositor, as the
Person who signs the Sarbanes-Oxley Certification (the “Certifying Person”), by
March 10th of each year in which the Trust is subject to the reporting
requirements of the Exchange Act and otherwise within a reasonable period of
time upon request, a certification (a “Back-Up Certification”), in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit B, upon which the Certifying Person, the entity for
which the Certifying Person acts as an officer, and such entity’s officers,
directors and Affiliates (collectively with the Certifying Person,
“Certification Parties”) can reasonably rely.  A senior officer of the
Depositor shall serve as the Certifying Person on behalf of the
Trust.

     

    (iv) With
respect to any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, Additional Form 10-K Disclosure
or any Form 8-K Disclosure Information (collectively, the “Additional
Disclosure”) relating to the Trust Fund and the Underlying Series, the Grantor
Trust Trustee’s obligation to include such Additional Information in the
applicable Exchange Act report is subject to receipt from the entity that is
indicated in Exhibit D as the responsible party for providing that information,
if other than the Grantor Trust Trustee, or from the parties to the Underlying
Series and the Depositor, as and when required as described in Section
3.11(a)(i) through (iii) above.  Such Additional Disclosure shall be
accompanied by a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit E.  Each
of the Sponsor, the Grantor Trust Trustee and the Depositor hereby agrees to
notify and provide to the extent known to the Sponsor, the Grantor Trust Trustee
and the Depositor all Additional Disclosure relating to the Trust Fund, with
respect to which such party is indicated in Exhibit E as the responsible party
for providing that information. Within five Business Days of each Distribution
Date of each year that the Trust is subject to the Exchange Act reporting
requirements, the Depositor shall make available to the Grantor Trust Trustee
the Significance Estimate and the Grantor Trust Trustee shall use such
information to calculate the Significance Percentage. The Grantor Trust Trustee
shall provide the Significance Percentage to the Depositor by the later of the
Distribution Date or three (3) Business Days after the receipt of the
Significance Estimate from the Depositor. If the Significance Percentage meets
either of the threshold levels detailed in Item 1115(b)(1) or 1115(b)(2) of
Regulation AB, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall deliver written notification to
the Depositor and the Yield Maintenance Agreement Counterparty to that effect,
which notification shall include a request that the Yield Maintenance Agreement
Counterparty provide Regulation AB information to the Depositor in accordance
with the Yield Maintenance Agreement.  The Depositor shall be
obligated to obtain from the Yield Maintenance Agreement Counterparty any
information required under Regulation AB to the extent required under the Yield
Maintenance Agreement and to provide to the Grantor Trust Trustee any
information that may be required to be included in any Form 10-D, Form 8-K or
Form 10-K relating to the Yield Maintenance Agreement Counterparty or written
notification instructing the Grantor Trust Trustee that such Additional
Disclosure regarding the Yield Maintenance Agreement Counterparty is not
necessary for such Distribution Date. The Depositor shall be responsible for any
reasonable fees and expenses assessed or incurred by the Grantor Trust Trustee
in connection with including any Additional Disclosure information pursuant to
this Section.

     

    So long
as the Depositor is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act
with respect to the Trust Fund, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall notify the
Depositor of any bankruptcy or receivership with respect to the Grantor Trust
Trustee or of any proceedings of the type described under Item 1117 of
Regulation AB that have occurred as of the related Due Period, together with a
description thereof, no later than the date on which such information is
required of other parties hereto as set forth under this Section
3.11.  In addition, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall notify the
Depositor of any affiliations or relationships that develop after the Closing
Date between the Grantor Trust Trustee and the Depositor or the Sponsor of the
type described under Item 1119 of Regulation AB, together with a description
thereof, no later than the date on which such information is required of other
parties hereto as set forth under this Section 3.11. Should the identification
of any of the Depositor or the Sponsor change, the Depositor shall promptly
notify the Grantor Trust Trustee.

     

    (v) (A)
On or prior to January 30th of the first year in which the Grantor Trust Trustee
is able to do so under applicable law, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall prepare
and file a Form 15 relating to the automatic suspension of reporting in respect
of the Trust under the Exchange Act.

     

    (B) In
the event that the Grantor Trust Trustee is unable to timely file with the
Commission all or any required portion of any Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K required to
be filed by this Agreement because required disclosure information was either
not delivered to it or delivered to it after the delivery deadlines set forth in
this Agreement or for any other reason, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall promptly
notify the Depositor.  In the case of Form 10-D and 10-K, the
Depositor and the Grantor Trust Trustee shall cooperate to prepare and file a
Form 12b-25 and a 10-DA and 10-KA as applicable, pursuant to Rule 12b-25 of the
Exchange Act.  In the case of Form 8-K, the Grantor Trust Trustee
will, upon receipt of all required Form 8-K Disclosure Information and upon the
approval and direction of the Depositor, include such disclosure information on
the next Form 10-D.  In the event that any previously filed Form 8-K,
10-D or 10-K needs to be amended, and such amendment relates to any Additional
Disclosure, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall notify the Depositor and the parties
affected thereby and such parties will cooperate to prepare any necessary Form
8-K/A, 10-DA or 10-KA.  Any Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendment to
Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K shall be signed by a duly authorized officer of the
Depositor.  The parties hereto acknowledge that the performance by the
Depositor and the Grantor Trust Trustee of their respective duties under this
Section 3.11(a)(v) related to the timely preparation, execution and filing of
Form 15, a Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K is contingent
upon the Depositor timely performing its duties under this
Section.  The Grantor Trust Trustee shall not have any liability for
any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out of or with respect to any failure
to properly prepare, execute and/or timely file any such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or
any amendments to Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K, where such failure results from the
Grantor Trust Trustee’s inability or failure to receive, on a timely basis, any
information from any other party hereto or to the Underlying Series needed to
prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any
amendments to Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad
faith or willful misconduct.

     

    The
Depositor agrees to promptly furnish to the Grantor Trust Trustee, from time to
time upon request, such further information, reports and financial statements
within its control related to this Agreement and the Underlying Securities as
the Grantor Trust Trustee reasonably deems appropriate to prepare and file all
necessary reports with the Commission. The Grantor Trust Trustee shall have no
responsibility to file any items other than those specified in this Section
3.11; provided, however, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall cooperate with the
Depositor in connection with any additional filings with respect to the Trust
Fund as the Depositor deems necessary under the Exchange Act.  Fees
and expenses incurred by the Grantor Trust Trustee in connection with this
Section 3.11 shall not be reimbursable from the Trust Fund.

     

    (b)           
The Grantor Trust Trustee shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor and
each of its officers, directors and affiliates from and against any losses,
damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and
related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based
upon a breach of the Grantor Trust Trustee’s obligations under Sections 3.09,
3.10 and 3.11 or the Grantor Trust Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct in connection therewith. In addition, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall
indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor and each of its respective officers,
directors and affiliates from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments
and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any
Back-Up Certification, any Annual Statement of Compliance, any Assessment of
Compliance or any Additional Disclosure provided by the Grantor Trust Trustee on
its behalf pursuant to Section 3.09, 3.10 or 3.11 (the “Grantor Trust Trustee
Information”), or (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading;
provided, by way of clarification, that this paragraph shall be construed solely
by reference to the Grantor Trust Trustee Information and not to any other
information communicated in connection with the Grantor Trust Certificates,
without regard to whether the Grantor Trust Trustee Information or any portion
thereof is presented together with or separately from such other
information.

     

    The
Depositor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Grantor Trust Trustee and each
of its officers, directors and affiliates from and against any losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related
costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon a
breach of the obligations of the Depositor under Sections 3.09, 3.10 and 3.11 or
the Depositor’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection
therewith. In addition, the Depositor shall indemnify and hold harmless the
Grantor Trust Trustee and each of its respective officers, directors and
affiliates from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs
and expenses arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Additional Disclosure
provided by the Depositor that is required to be filed pursuant to this Section
3.11 (the “Depositor Information”), or (ii) any omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made,
not misleading; provided, by way of clarification, that this paragraph shall be
construed solely by reference to the Depositor Information that is required to
be filed and not to any other information communicated in connection with the
Grantor Trust Certificates, without regard to whether the Depositor Information
or any portion thereof is presented together with or separately from such other
information.

     

    If the
indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold
harmless the Depositor or the Grantor Trust Trustee, as applicable, then the
defaulting party, in connection with any conduct for which it is providing
indemnification under this Section 3.11(b), agrees that it shall contribute to
the amount paid or payable by the other parties as a result of the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities of the other party in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault and the relative benefit of the
respective parties.

     

    The
indemnification provisions set forth in this Section 3.11(b) shall survive the
termination of this Agreement or the termination of any party to this
Agreement.

     

    (c)           
Failure of the Grantor Trust Trustee to comply with this Section 3.11 (including
with respect to the time frames required in this Section) which failure results
in a failure to timely file the related Form 10-K, shall, upon written notice
from the Depositor, constitute a default and the Depositor shall, in addition to
whatever rights it may have under this Agreement and at law or equity or to
damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance, upon notice
immediately terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Grantor Trust
Trustee under this Agreement and in and to the Underlying Securities and the
proceeds thereof without compensating the Grantor Trust Trustee for the same
(but subject to the Grantor Trust Trustee’s right to reimbursement of all
amounts for which it is entitled to be reimbursed prior to the date of
termination).  This paragraph shall supersede any other provision in
this Agreement or any other agreement to the contrary. In connection with the
termination of the Grantor Trust Trustee pursuant to this Section 3.11(c), the
Grantor Trust Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement of all costs and
expenses associated with such termination.  Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Agreement, no default by the Grantor Trust Trustee shall
have occurred with respect to any failure to properly prepare and/or timely file
any report on Form 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K, any Form 15 or Form 12b-25 or
any amendments to Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K, where such failure results from the
Grantor Trust Trustee’s inability or failure to receive, on a timely basis, any
information from any other party hereto needed to prepare, arrange for execution
or file any such report, Form or amendment, and does not result from its own
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

     

    (d)           
This Section 3.11 may be amended without the consent of the Grantor Trust
Certificateholders.

     

    (e)           
Any report, notice or notification to be delivered by the Grantor Trust Trustee
to the Depositor pursuant to this Section 3.11, may be delivered via email to
RegABNotifications@bear.com or, in the case of a notification, telephonically by
calling Reg AB Compliance Manager at (212) 272-7525.

     

    Section
3.12. Reserve Account.

     

    (a)  No later
than the Closing Date, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall establish and maintain a
segregated trust account or a sub-account of a trust account entitled the
“Reserve Account”. The Reserve Account shall be an Eligible Account. On the
Closing Date, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall, promptly upon receipt, deposit in
the Reserve Account and retain therein the Reserve Account Deposit remitted on
the Closing Date to the Grantor Trust Trustee by the Sponsor. On the Closing
Date, the Reserve Account shall also include the right to receive the Additional
Amount that has been agreed by the Sponsor to be paid to the Trust. Funds
deposited in the Reserve Account shall be held in trust by the Grantor Trust
Trustee for the Grantor Trust Certificateholders for the uses and purposes set
forth herein. On the Closing Date, the portion of the Reserve Account Deposit
initially included in the Reserve Account Deposit Portion A on such date may be
invested in Permitted Investments that mature no later than the first
Distribution Date, and the portion of the Reserve Account Deposit initially
included in the Reserve Account Deposit Portion B on such date may be invested
in Permitted Investments that mature no later than the second Distribution Date,
in each case as directed by the Depositor. Any remaining Reserve Account Deposit
Portion A following the first Distribution Date shall remain uninvested. All
income and gain realized from investment of the Reserve Account Deposit or
portions thereof, which investment shall be made solely upon the written
direction of the Depositor, shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the
Grantor Trust Certificateholders and shall be included in the Reserve Account
Distribution Amount related to the first and second Distribution Dates. If no
written direction with respect to such investment is received by the Grantor
Trust Trustee from the Depositor on the Closing Date, then funds in the Reserve
Account shall remain uninvested.  Pursuant to Section 3.13, the
Grantor Trust Trustee shall also deposit into the Reserve Account any Additional
Amount, if any, received pursuant to the Yield Maintenance Agreement for
inclusion in the Reserve Account Distribution Amount for the second Distribution
Date.

     

    (b)  The
amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be specifically allocated as
provided in this Agreement to cover related Interest Distribution Amounts for
the Grantor Trust Certificates with respect to the first two Distribution Dates
following the Closing Date. On each of the first two Distribution Dates, the
Grantor Trust Trustee shall withdraw from the Reserve Account the Reserve
Account Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date and include such amount
in the Available Funds for that Distribution Date and distribute such amount to
the Grantor Trust Certificateholders in accordance with Section 3.05. To the
extent the Reserve Account Deposit Portion B is insufficient to cover the
Interest Distribution Amount on the second Distribution Date, the Additional
Amount received pursuant to the Yield Maintenance Agreement shall be used to
cover such amount. On the second Distribution Date, any remaining Reserve
Account Deposit Portion B following distributions on the second Distribution
Date shall be distributed to the Grantor Trust Certificateholders as provided in
Section 3.05(b). Any payments to the Grantor Trust Certificateholders in respect
of interest pursuant to this subsection shall not be payments with respect to a
“regular interest” in a REMIC within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(1) of
the Code represented by the Underlying Securities.

     

    Section
3.13. The Yield Maintenance
Agreement.

     

    On the
Closing Date, the Sponsor has agreed to cause the Additional Amount to be paid
to the Trust. The Grantor Trust Trustee shall enter into the Yield Maintenance
Agreement on or before the second Distribution Date to evidence such right to
receive Additional Amounts. Pursuant to the Yield Maintenance Agreement, the
Yield Maintenance Agreement Counterparty shall remit to the Grantor Trust
Trustee the Additional Amount. The Grantor Trust Trustee shall demand payment of
all money payable by the Yield Maintenance Agreement Counterparty under the
Yield Maintenance Agreement. The Grantor Trust Trustee shall deposit in the
Reserve Account all payments received from the Yield Maintenance Agreement
Counterparty pursuant to the Yield Maintenance Agreement for inclusion in the
Reserve Account Distribution Amount to be distributed to the Grantor Trust
Certificateholders on the second Distribution Date in accordance with Section
3.05(a).

     

    In the
event that the Yield Maintenance Agreement Counterparty fails to perform any of
its obligations under the Yield Maintenance Agreement (including, without
limitation, its obligation to make any payment or transfer collateral), or
breaches any of its representations and warranties thereunder, or in the event
that any Event of Default, Termination Event, or Additional Termination Event
(each as defined in the Yield Maintenance Agreement) occurs with respect to the
Yield Maintenance Agreement, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall, promptly following
actual notice of such failure, breach or event, notify the Depositor and send
any notices and make any demands, on behalf of the Trust, required to enforce
the rights of the Trust under the Yield Maintenance Agreement.

     

    In the
event that the Yield Maintenance Agreement Counterparty’s obligations are
guaranteed by a third party under a guaranty relating to the Yield Maintenance
Agreement (such guaranty the “Guaranty” and such third party the “Guarantor”),
then to the extent that the Yield Maintenance Agreement Counterparty fails to
make any payment by the close of business on the day it is required to make
payment under the terms of the Yield Maintenance Agreement, the Grantor Trust
Trustee shall, promptly following actual notice of the Yield Maintenance
Agreement Counterparty’s failure to pay, demand that the Guarantor make any and
all payments then required to be made by the Guarantor pursuant to such
Guaranty.  The Yield Maintenance Agreement Counterparty or the
Depositor shall promptly provide the Grantor Trust Trustee with a copy of such
Guaranty; provided, that the Grantor Trust Trustee shall in no event be liable
for any failure or delay in the performance by the Yield Maintenance Agreement
Counterparty or any Guarantor of its obligations hereunder or pursuant to the
Yield Maintenance Agreement and the Guaranty, nor for any special, indirect or
consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited
to lost profits) in connection therewith.

IV

     

    THE
GRANTOR TRUST CERTIFICATES

     

    Section
4.01. The Grantor Trust
Certificates.

     

    (a) The
Depository, the Depositor and the Grantor Trust Trustee have entered into a
letter agreement dated as of October 24, 2007 (the “Depository
Agreement”).  Except as provided in Subsection 4.01(b), the Grantor
Trust Certificates shall at all times remain registered in the name of the
Depository or its nominee and at all times:  (i) registration of such
Grantor Trust Certificates may not be transferred by the Grantor Trust Trustee
except to a successor to the Depository; (ii) ownership and transfers of
registration of such Grantor Trust Certificates on the books of the Depository
shall be governed by applicable rules established by the Depository; (iii) the
Depository may collect its usual and customary fees, charges and expenses from
its Depository Participants; (iv) the Grantor Trust Trustee shall deal with the
Depository as representative of the Grantor Trust Certificate Owners for
purposes of exercising the rights of Grantor Trust Certificateholders under this
Agreement, and requests and directions for and votes of such representative
shall not be deemed to be inconsistent if they are made with respect to
different Grantor Trust Certificate Owners; and (v) the Grantor Trust Trustee
may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by
the Depository with respect to its Depository Participants.

     

    All
transfers by Grantor Trust Certificate Owners of Grantor Trust Certificates
shall be made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository
Participant or brokerage firm representing such Grantor Trust Certificate
Owners. Each Depository Participant shall only transfer Grantor Trust
Certificates of Grantor Trust Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage
firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the Depository’s normal
procedures.

     

    (b) If (i)(A)
the Depositor advises the Grantor Trust Trustee in writing that the Depository
is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as
Depository and (B) the Grantor Trust Trustee or the Depositor is unable to
locate a qualified successor within 30 days or (ii) after the occurrence and
continuation of a default hereunder, the Grantor Trust Certificate Owners of not
less than 51% of the Percentage Interests of the Grantor Trust Certificates
advise the Grantor Trust Trustee and the Depository in writing through the
depository participants that the continuation of a book-entry system with
respect to the Grantor Trust Certificates through the Depository (or its
successor) is no longer in the best interests of the Grantor Trust Certificate
Owners, then the Grantor Trust Trustee shall request that the Depository notify
all Grantor Trust Certificate Owners of the occurrence of any such event and of
the availability of definitive, fully registered Grantor Trust Certificates (the
“Definitive Grantor Trust Certificates”) to Grantor Trust Certificate Owners
requesting the same.  Upon surrender to the Grantor Trust Trustee of
the Grantor Trust Certificates by the Depository, accompanied by registration
instructions from the Depository for registration, the Grantor Trust Trustee
shall issue the Definitive Grantor Trust Certificates.  Neither the
Depositor nor the Grantor Trust Trustee shall be liable for any delay in
delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be
protected in relying on, such instructions.

     

    (c) The
Grantor Trust Certificates shall be substantially in the form set forth in
Exhibit A hereto.  The Grantor Trust Certificates shall be executed by
manual signature on behalf of the Grantor Trust Trustee in its capacity as
Grantor Trust Trustee hereunder by an authorized officer.  Grantor
Trust Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who
were at any time the proper officers of the Grantor Trust Trustee shall be
entitled to all benefits under this Agreement, subject to the following
sentence, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to
hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Grantor Trust
Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of such Grantor Trust
Certificates.  No Grantor Trust Certificate shall be entitled to any
benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears
on such Grantor Trust Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially
in the form provided for herein executed by the Grantor Trust Trustee by manual
signature, and such certificate upon any Grantor Trust Certificate shall be
conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Grantor Trust Certificate
has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.  All Grantor
Trust Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.

     

    Pending
the preparation of Definitive Grantor Trust Certificates, the Grantor Trust
Trustee may sign and authenticate temporary Grantor Trust Certificates that are
printed, lithographed or typewritten, in authorized denominations for Grantor
Trust Certificates, substantially of the tenor of the Definitive Grantor Trust
Certificates in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate
insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers or
authorized signatories executing such Grantor Trust Certificates may determine,
as evidenced by their execution of such Grantor Trust
Certificates.  If temporary Grantor Trust Certificates are issued, the
Depositor will cause Definitive Grantor Trust Certificates to be prepared
without unreasonable delay.  After the preparation of Definitive
Grantor Trust Certificates, the temporary Grantor Trust Certificates shall be
exchangeable for Definitive Grantor Trust Certificates upon surrender of the
temporary Grantor Trust Certificates at the office of the Grantor Trust Trustee,
without charge to the Holder.  Upon surrender for cancellation of any
one or more temporary Certificates, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall sign and the
Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like
aggregate principal amount, in authorized denominations, of Definitive Grantor
Trust Certificates.  Until so exchanged, such temporary Grantor Trust
Certificates shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits as
Definitive Grantor Trust Certificates.

     

    Each of
the Grantor Trust Certificates will be initially registered as a single Grantor

    Section
4.02. Registration of Transfer and
Exchange of Grantor Trust Certificates.

     

    (a) At all
times during the term of this Agreement, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall
maintain at its Corporate Trust Office a register (the “Certificate Register”)
in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as the Grantor Trust Trustee
may prescribe, the Certificate Register shall provide for the registration of
Grantor Trust Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Grantor Trust
Certificates as herein provided.  The Depositor shall have the right
to inspect the Certificate Register or to obtain a copy thereof at all
reasonable times, and to rely conclusively upon a certificate of the Grantor
Trust Trustee as to the information set forth in the Certificate
Register.

     

    The
Depositor and every Grantor Trust Certificateholder and Grantor Trust
Certificate Owner, by receiving and holding a Grantor Trust Certificate or an
interest therein,  agrees with the Grantor Trust Trustee that the
Grantor Trust Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of the disclosure
of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Grantor Trust
Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from which such
information was derived.

     

    (b) Subject
to the preceding subsection, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any
Grantor Trust Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office of the Grantor Trust
Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in
the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Grantor
Trust Certificates of a like aggregate Percentage Interest.

     

    (c) At the
option of any Holder, its Grantor Trust Certificates may be exchanged for other
Grantor Trust Certificates of authorized denominations of a like aggregate
Percentage Interest, upon surrender of the Grantor Trust Certificates to be
exchanged at the Corporate Trust Office of the Grantor Trust
Trustee.  Whenever any Grantor Trust Certificates are so surrendered
for exchange, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver
the Grantor Trust Certificates which the Grantor Trust Certificateholder making
the exchange is entitled to receive.

     

    (d) Every
Grantor Trust Certificate presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange
shall (if so required by the Grantor Trust Trustee) be duly endorsed by, or be
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in the form satisfactory to the
Grantor Trust Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing, and shall further be accompanied by the information
required to be provided to the Grantor Trust Trustee for WHFIT reporting
purposes pursuant to Section 3.06 hereof, including the status of the proposed
transferee as a “middleman” as defined by the WHFIT Regulations and, in the case
of a transfer pursuant to a sale, the price, the amount of proceeds and the date
of sale of such Grantor Trust Certificate or interest therein.

     

    (e) No
service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange of Grantor Trust
Certificates, but the Grantor Trust Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any transfer or exchange of Grantor Trust
Certificates.

     

    (f) All
Grantor Trust Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be
destroyed by the Grantor Trust Trustee without liability on its
part.

     

    Section
4.03. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost
or Stolen Grantor Trust Certificates.

     

    If (i)
any mutilated Grantor Trust Certificate is surrendered to the Grantor Trust
Trustee, or the Grantor Trust Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of
the destruction, loss or theft of any Grantor Trust Certificate, and (ii)
(except in the case of a mutilated Grantor Trust Certificate) there is delivered
to the Grantor Trust Trustee such agreement, security or indemnity as may be
required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice
to the Grantor Trust Trustee that such Grantor Trust Certificate has been
acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall execute,
authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Grantor Trust Certificate, a new Grantor Trust
Certificate of like tenor and Percentage Interest but bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding.  Upon the issuance of any new Grantor
Trust Certificate under this Section, the Grantor Trust Trustee may require the
payment by the Grantor Trust Certificateholder of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation
thereto.  Any duplicate Grantor Trust Certificate issued pursuant to
this Section shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in
the Trust Fund, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or
destroyed Grantor Trust Certificate shall be found at any time.

     

    Section
4.04. Persons Deemed
Owners.

     

    Prior to
due presentment of a Grantor Trust Certificate for registration of transfer, the
Depositor, the Grantor Trust Trustee and any agent of the Depositor or the
Grantor Trust Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Grantor Trust
Certificate is registered as the owner of such Grantor Trust Certificate for the
purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 3.05 and for all other
purposes whatsoever, and none of the Depositor, the Grantor Trust Trustee, or
any agent of the Depositor or the Grantor Trust Trustee shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.

obligor and has defaulted thereon);

     

    (v) Anything
in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Grantor
Trust Trustee be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of

and regardless of the form of action;

    (vii) The
Grantor Trust Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or

knowledge of such event, fact or circumstance or unless written notice of any
such event is received by the Grantor Trust Trustee at its Corporate Trust
Office;

     

    (ix) No
provision in this Agreement shall require the Grantor Trust Trustee to expend or
risk its own funds or otherwise incur any personal financial liability in the

reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of funds or adequate indemnity
against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it; provided that

    Section

the Grantor Trust Trustee.

     

    (a) The
Grantor Trust Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the Trust
hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Depositor and the Grantor
Trust Certificateholders. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the
Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor Grantor Trust Trustee by written
instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to
each of the resigning Grantor Trust Trustee and the successor Grantor Trust
Trustee. If no successor Grantor Trust Trustee shall have been so appointed and
have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of
resignation, the resigning Grantor Trust Trustee may petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Grantor Trust
Trustee.

     

    (b) If at any
time the Grantor Trust Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of Section 5.06 and shall fail to resign after written request
therefor by the Depositor or the Majority Grantor Trust Certificateholders, or
if at any time the Grantor Trust Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or
shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Grantor Trust
Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take
charge or control of the Grantor Trust Trustee or of its property or affairs for
the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Depositor
shall promptly remove the Grantor Trust Trustee and appoint a successor Grantor
Trust Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument
shall be delivered to each of the Grantor Trust Trustee so removed and one copy
to the successor Grantor Trust Trustee.

Grantor Trust Certificateholders may at any time remove the Grantor Trust
Trustee and appoint a successor Grantor Trust Trustee by written instrument or
instruments, in quadruplicate, signed by such Holders or their attorneys-in-fact

Depositor, the Grantor Trust Trustee so removed and the successor so
appointed.  A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the
Grantor Trust Certificateholders by the Depositor.  All reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with such removal and
replacement of the Grantor Trust Trustee, including without limitation,
reasonable attorneys fees and expenses, shall be borne by the party requesting
such action.

     

    (d) No
resignation or removal of the Grantor Trust Trustee and appointment of a
successor Grantor Trust Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this
Section shall become effective except upon appointment of and acceptance of such
appointment by the successor Grantor Trust Trustee as provided in Section 5.08
and (ii) no entity may be appointed as a successor Grantor Trust Trustee if such
appointment would result in a withdrawal or downgrading of any then current
rating assigned to the Grantor Trust Certificates by the Rating
Agency.

     

    Section
5.08. Successor Grantor Trust
Trustee.

     

    (a) Any
successor Grantor Trust Trustee appointed as provided in Section 5.07 shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, the Grantor Trust
Certificateholders and to its predecessor Grantor Trust Trustee an instrument
accepting such appointment hereunder. The resignation or removal of the
predecessor Grantor Trust Trustee shall then become effective and such successor
Grantor Trust Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become
fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its
predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Grantor Trust
Trustee o herein.  The predecessor Grantor Trust Trustee shall after
payment of its outstanding fees and expenses promptly deliver to the successor
Grantor Trust Trustee the Underlying Securities and related documents and
statements held by it hereunder, and the Depositor and the predecessor Grantor
Trust Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other
things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and
confirming in the successor Grantor Trust Trustee all such rights, powers,
duties and obligations.

     

    (b) No
successor Grantor Trust Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Grantor Trust
Trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 5.06.

     

    (c) Upon
acceptance of appointment by a successor Grantor Trust Trustee as provided in
this Section, the successor Grantor Trust Trustee shall mail notice of the

mailed at the expense of the Depositor.

     

    (d) Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement or the Underlying Agreement to the contrary, in the
event that the paying agent for the Underlying Series resigns or is terminated,
the Grantor Trust Trustee (if it was such paying agent) shall resign as Grantor
Trust Trustee under this Agreement and the Depositor may appoint the successor
paying agent as the successor to the Grantor Trust Trustee
hereunder.

     

    Section

Grantor Trust Trustee.

     

    Any state
bank or trust company or national banking association into which the Grantor
Trust Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or
any state bank or trust company or national banking association resulting from
any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Grantor Trust Trustee shall
be a party, or any state bank or trust company or national banking association
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the
Grantor Trust Trustee shall be the successor of the Grantor Trust Trustee
hereunder, provided such state bank or trust company or national banking
association shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 5.06. Such
succession shall be valid without the execution or filing of any paper or any
further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding.  The Grantor Trust Trustee shall mail notice
of any such merger or consolidation to the Depositor and to the Grantor Trust
Certificateholders at their address as shown in the Certificate
Register.

     

    Section
5.10. Appointment of Co-Grantor
Trust Trustee or Separate Grantor Trust Trustee.

     

    (a) Notwithstanding
any other provisions hereof, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal
requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust or property
constituting the same may at the time be located, the Depositor and the Grantor
Trust Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver
all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Grantor Trust
Trustee and the Depositor to act as co-Grantor Trust Trustee or co-Grantor Trust
Trustees, jointly with the Grantor Trust Trustee, or separate Grantor Trust
Trustee or separate Grantor Trust Trustees, of all or any part of the Trust, and
to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to the Trust, or
any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 5.10,
such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Depositor and the
Grantor Trust Trustee may consider necessary or desirable.  No
co-Grantor Trust Trustee or separate Grantor Trust Trustee hereunder shall be
required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor Grantor Trust Trustee
under Section 5.06 hereunder; provided, that if the co-Grantor Trust Trustee or
separate Grantor Trust Trustee does not meet such eligibility standards, the
Grantor Trust Trustee shall remain liable for its actions hereunder, and no
notice to Grantor Trust Certificateholders of the appointment of co-Grantor
Trust Trustee(s) or separate Grantor Trust Trustee(s) shall be required under
Section 5.08 hereof.

     

    (b) If the
Depositor shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the
receipt by it of a written request so to do, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall
have the power to make such appointment without the Depositor.

     

    (c) In the
case of any appointment of a co-Grantor Trust Trustee or separate Grantor Trust
Trustee pursuant to this Section 5.10, all rights, powers, duties and
obligations conferred or imposed upon the Grantor Trust Trustee and required to
be conferred on such co-Grantor Trust Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon
and exercised or performed jointly by the Grantor Trust Trustee and such
separate Grantor Trust Trustee or co-Grantor Trust Trustee jointly, except to
the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or
acts are to be performed (whether as Grantor Trust Trustee hereunder or as
successor to the Master Servicer hereunder), the Grantor Trust Trustee shall be
incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such
rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the
Trust Fund or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised
and performed by such separate Grantor Trust Trustee or co-Grantor Trust Trustee
at the direction of the Grantor Trust Trustee.

     

    (d) Any notice, request or other writing
given to the Grantor Trust Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of
the then separate Grantor Trust Trustees and co-Grantor Trust Trustees, as
effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate
Grantor Trust Trustee or co-Grantor Trust Trustee shall refer to this Agreement
and the conditions of this Article V. Each separate Grantor Trust Trustee and
co-Grantor Trust Trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be
vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment,
either jointly with the Grantor Trust Trustee or separately, as may be provided
therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including
every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the
liability of, or affording protection to, the Grantor Trust Trustee.
Every such instrument shall
be filed with the Grantor Trust Trustee.

     

    (e) To the
extent not prohibited by law, any separate Grantor Trust Trustee or co-Grantor
Trust Trustee may, at any time, request the Grantor Trust Trustee, its agent or
attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to do any lawful act under or
with respect to this Agreement on its behalf and in its name.  If any
separate Grantor Trust Trustee or co-Grantor Trust Trustee shall die, become

Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or

    Section
6.01. Liability of the
Depositor.

     

    The
Depositor shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the
respective obligations specifically imposed upon and undertaken by the Depositor
herein.

     

    Section
6.02. Merger, Consolidation or
Conversion of the Depositor.

     

    Subject
to the following paragraph, the Depositor will keep in full effect its
existence, rights and franchises as a corporation under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its incorporation, and will obtain and preserve its
qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in
which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement and the Grantor Trust Certificates and to
perform its duties under this Agreement.

     

    The
Depositor may be merged or consolidated with or into any Person, or transfer all
or substantially all of its assets to any Person, in which case any Person
resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Depositor shall be a
party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor, shall be the
successor of the Depositor hereunder, without the execution or filing of any
paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

     

    Section
6.03. Limitation on Liability of
the Depositor and Others.

     

    Neither
the Depositor nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the
Depositor shall be under any liability to the Trust Fund or the Grantor Trust
Certificateholders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any
action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment;
provided, however, that this
provision shall not protect the Depositor or any such other Person against any
breach of a representation or warranty made herein, or against any expense or
liability specifically required to be borne thereby pursuant to the terms
hereof, or against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of
willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of obligations
or duties hereunder, or by reason of reckless disregard of such obligations and
duties.  The Depositor and any director, officer, employee or agent of
the Depositor may rely in good faith on any document of any kind which, primafacie, is properly
executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising
hereunder.  Provided that such action is not related to its
representations made in or its duties under this Agreement, the Depositor shall
not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action or
proceeding unless such action in its opinion does not involve it in any expense
or liability.

    TERMINATION

     

    Section
7.01. Termination.

     

    (a) The
respective obligations and responsibilities of the Depositor and the Grantor
Trust Trustee created hereby with respect to the Trust Fund (other than the
obligation to make certain payments and to send certain notices to the Grantor
Trust Certificateholders as hereinafter set forth) shall terminate upon the
later of (i) the making of the final payment on or other liquidation of the
Underlying Securities and (ii) the payment to the Grantor Trust
Certificateholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to this
Agreement; provided, however, that in no
event shall the Trust Fund created hereby continue beyond the expiration of
twenty-one 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’s, living on the date hereof.

     

    (b) The
Grantor Trust Trustee shall, in accordance with Section 8.05, give a Notice of
Final Distribution to the Holders, the Depositor and the Rating Agency as soon
as practicable of the Distribution Date on which the Grantor Trust Trustee
anticipates that the final distribution will be made on the Grantor Trust
Certificates, which notice shall:

     

    (i) specify
the Distribution Date on which the final distribution is anticipated to be made
to such Holders;

     

    (ii) specify
the amount of any such final distribution, if known; and

     

    (iii) state
that the final distribution to such Holders will be made only upon presentment
and surrender of their Grantor Trust Certificates at the office of the Grantor
Trust Trustee therein specified.

     

    If the
payment on the Grantor Trust Certificates is not made on the anticipated
Distribution Date for any reason, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall promptly mail
notice thereof to each such Holder, the Depositor and to the Rating
Agency.

     

    (c) Upon
presentment and surrender of the Grantor Trust Certificates by the Holders of
the Grantor Trust Certificates on the Final Distribution Date, the Grantor Trust
Trustee shall distribute to such Grantor Trust Certificateholders the amounts
otherwise distributable to them on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section
3.05(a).  Any funds not distributed on a Final Distribution Date
because of the failure of any Grantor Trust Certificateholders to tender their
Grantor Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account
of the appropriate non-tendering Grantor Trust Certificateholders, and the Trust
Fund shall terminate.  If any Grantor Trust Certificates as to which
Notice of Final Distribution has been given pursuant to this Section 7.01 shall
not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time
specified in such notice, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall mail a second notice
to the remaining Grantor Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown
in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Grantor Trust Certificates for
cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the final distribution
with respect thereto.  If within one year after the second notice any
Grantor Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the
Grantor Trust Trustee shall directly or through an agent, take reasonable steps
to contact the remaining Grantor Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender
of their Grantor Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such
funds and of contacting Grantor Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of
the assets of the Trust Fund.  If within two years after the second
notice any Grantor Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for
cancellation, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall segregate all amounts
distributable to the Holders thereof and shall thereafter hold such amounts for
the benefit of such Holders. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any
Grantor Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Grantor
Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Grantor Trust Certificate(s)
for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 7.01.

    MISCELLANEOUS
PROVISIONS

     

    Section
8.01. Amendment.

     

    (a) This
Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor,
the  Grantor Trust Trustee, without the prior consent of any Grantor
Trust Certificateholder:

     

    (i) to cure
any ambiguity;

     

    (ii) to
correct or supplement any provisions herein, which may be inconsistent with any
other provisions herein;

     

    (iii) to conform to the language in the Prospectus
Supplement;

     

    (iv) to revise any provisions to reflect the obligations
of the parties to this Agreement as they relate to Regulation
AB;

     

    (v) to make
any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this
Agreement which shall not be materially inconsistent with the existing
provisions of this Agreement; and

     

    (vi) to make
such modifications as may be permitted or required hereunder in connection with
a repurchase of any Underlying Security pursuant to Section 2.03(c)
hereof;

     

    provided
that such amendment shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered
to the Grantor Trust Trustee or a letter from the Rating Agency confirming that
such amendment shall not result in a downgrade or withdrawal of a rating on any
of the Grantor Trust Certificates (in each case, the expense of which shall be
paid for by the Depositor), adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of any Grantor Trust Certificateholder.

     

    (b) This
Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor and the Grantor
Trust Trustee with the prior written consent of the Majority Grantor Trust
Certificateholder for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any
manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in
any manner the rights of the Grantor Trust Certificateholders; provided, however, that no such
amendment shall:

     

    (i) reduce in
any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments which are required to
be distributed on any Grantor Trust Certificate without the consent of the
Holder of such Grantor Trust Certificate; or

     

    (ii) modify
the provisions of this Section 8.01 without the consent of the Holders of all
Grantor Trust Certificates.

     

    Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, for the purposes of the giving or
withholding of consents pursuant to this Section 8.01(b), Grantor Trust
Certificates registered in the name of, or held for the benefit of, the
Depositor or any Affiliate thereof shall be entitled to vote their Percentage
Interests with respect to matters affecting such Grantor Trust
Certificates.

     

    (c) Promptly
after the execution of any such amendment the Grantor Trust Trustee shall
furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment to each Grantor
Trust Certificateholder.  It shall not be necessary for the consent of
the Grantor Trust Certificateholders under this Section 8.01 to approve the
particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such
consent shall approve the substance thereof.  The manner of obtaining
such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by
the Grantor Trust Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable
regulations as the Grantor Trust Trustee may prescribe.

     

    (d) Notwithstanding
any contrary provision of this Agreement, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall not
consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall have first received
an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking such amendment) to
the effect that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the
Depositor or the Grantor Trust Trustee in accordance with such amendment (i) is
authorized or permitted by the Agreement and (ii) will not result in the
imposition of a tax on the Trust or cause the Trust to fail to be classified as
a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of chapter 1 of the
Code.

     

    Section
8.02. Counterparts.

     

    This
Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of
which counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts
shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

     

    Section
8.03. Limitation on Rights of
Grantor Trust Certificateholders.

     

    (a) The death
or incapacity of any Grantor Trust Certificateholder shall not operate to
terminate this Agreement or the Trust Fund, nor entitle such Grantor Trust
Certificateholder’s legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to
take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the
Trust Fund, nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the
parties hereto or any of them.

     

    (b) No
Grantor Trust Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as
expressly provided for herein) or in any manner otherwise control the operation
and management of the Trust Fund, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor
shall anything herein set forth, or contained in the terms of the Grantor Trust
Certificates, be construed so as to constitute the Grantor Trust
Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members of an association;
nor shall any Grantor Trust Certificateholder be under any liability to any
third party by reason of any action taken by the parties to this Agreement
pursuant to any provision hereof.

     

    (c) No
Grantor Trust Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any provision
of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at
law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement or the Trust Fund, unless
such Holder previously shall have given to the Grantor Trust Trustee and the
Depositor a written notice of default hereunder, and of the continuance thereof,
as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the Majority Grantor Trust
Certificateholder shall have made written request upon the Grantor Trust Trustee
to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Grantor Trust
Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Grantor Trust Trustee such
reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and
liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Grantor Trust Trustee,
for 30 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity,
shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or
proceeding.  For the prosecution and enforcement of the rights granted
under this Section, each and every Grantor Trust Certificateholder and the
Grantor Trust Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at
law or in equity.

    If any
one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement
shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants,
agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way
affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement
or of the Grantor Trust Certificates or the rights of the Holders
thereof.

     

    Section
8.07. Successors and
Assigns.

     

    The

    Section
8.08. Article and Section
Headings.

     

    The

    The
Grantor Trust Trustee shall notify the Rating Agency at such time as it is
otherwise required pursuant to this Agreement to give notice of the occurrence
of any of the events described in clauses (a), (b), or (e) below or provide a
copy to the Rating Agency at such time as otherwise required to be delivered
pursuant to this Agreement of each of the statements described in clauses (c)
and (e) below:

     

    (a) a
material change or amendment to this Agreement,

     

    (b) the
termination or appointment of a successor Grantor Trust Trustee or a change in
the majority ownership of the Grantor Trust Trustee,

     

    (c) the

    (d) Notice of

and

     

    (e) a change

    The
Depositor shall notify the Rating Agencies of any change in its

    Section
8.10. Acts of Grantor Trust
Certificateholders.

     

    (a)   Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action provided by this Agreement to be given or taken by Grantor Trust
Certificateholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments
of substantially similar tenor signed by such Grantor Trust Certificateholders
in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing.  Except as herein
otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such
instrument or instruments are delivered to the Grantor Trust Trustee and, where
it is expressly required, to the Depositor.  Proof of execution of any
such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient
for any purpose of this Agreement and conclusive in favor of the Grantor Trust
Trustee and the Depositor, if made in the manner provided in this Section
8.10.

     

    (b) The fact
and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be
proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a
notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of
deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing
acknowledged to him the execution thereof.  Where such execution is by
a signer acting in a capacity other than his or her individual capacity, such
certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his or her
authority.  The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument
or writing, or the authority of the individual executing the same, may also be
proved in any other manner which the Grantor Trust Trustee deems
sufficient.

     

    (c) The
ownership of Grantor Trust Certificates (notwithstanding any notation of
ownership or other writing on such Grantor Trust Certificates, except an
endorsement in accordance with Section 4.02 made on a Grantor Trust Certificates
presented in accordance with Section 4.04) shall be proved by the Certificate
Register, and neither the Grantor Trust Trustee, the Depositor, nor any
successor to either such party shall be affected by any notice to the
contrary.

     

    (d) Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action of the holder of any Grantor Trust Certificate shall bind every future
holder of the same Grantor Trust Certificate and the holder of every Grantor
Trust Certificate issued upon the registration of transfer or exchange thereof,
if applicable, or in lieu thereof with respect to anything done, omitted or
suffered to be done by the Grantor Trust Trustee, the Depositor, or any
successor to either such party in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of
such action is made upon such Certificates.

     

    (e) In
determining whether the Holders of the requisite Percentage Interest of Grantor
Trust Certificates have given any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent or waiver hereunder, Grantor Trust Certificates owned by the
Grantor Trust Trustee or the Depositor or any Affiliate thereof shall be
disregarded, except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01(b), except that, in
determining whether the Grantor Trust Trustee shall be protected in relying upon
any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver,
only Grantor Trust Certificates which the Grantor Trust Trustee knows to be so
owned shall be so disregarded.  Grantor Trust Certificates which have
been pledged in good faith to the Grantor Trust Trustee or the Depositor or any
Affiliate thereof may be regarded as outstanding if the pledgor establishes to
the satisfaction of the Grantor Trust Trustee the pledgor’s right to act with
respect to such Grantor Trust Certificates and that the pledgor is not an
Affiliate of the Grantor Trust Trustee or the Depositor, as the case may
be.

    evidencing
a Percentage Interest in the distributions allocable to the Class A-1 Grantor
Trust Certificates with respect to a Trust Fund consisting primarily of the
Underlying Securities sold by STRUCTURED ASSET MORTGAGE INVESTMENTS II
INC.

     

    This
Grantor Trust Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust Fund,
and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Structured Asset Mortgage
Investments II Inc., the Grantor Trust Trustee referred to below or any of their
affiliates or any other person. Neither this Grantor Trust Certificate nor the
Underlying Securities are guaranteed or insured by any governmental entity or by
Structured Asset Mortgage Investments II Inc., the Grantor Trust Trustee or any
of their affiliates or any other person. None of Structured Asset Mortgage
Investments II Inc., the Grantor Trust Trustee or any of their affiliates will
have any obligation with respect to any certificate or other obligation secured
by or payable from payments on the Grantor Trust Certificates.

     

    This
certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the Percentage Interest
evidenced hereby in the beneficial ownership interest of Grantor Trust
Certificates of the same Class as this Grantor Trust Certificate in a trust (the
“Trust Fund”) primarily consisting of the Underlying Securities sold by
Structured Asset Mortgage Investments II Inc. (“SAMI II”). The Underlying
Securities were sold by EMC Mortgage Corporation (“EMC”) to SAMI
II.  The Trust Fund was created pursuant to the Grantor Trust
Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date, (the “Agreement”), between SAMI II, as
depositor (the “Depositor”) and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as grantor trust trustee
(the “Grantor Trust Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions
of which is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement. This
Grantor Trust Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms,
provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of
this Grantor Trust Certificate by virtue of its acceptance hereof assents and by
which such Holder is bound.

     

      Interest
on this Grantor Trust Certificate will accrue from and including the 25th day
(or with respect to the First Distribution Date, the Closing Date) of the
calendar month preceding the month in which a Distribution Date (as hereinafter
defined) occurs to and including the 24th day of the calendar month in which
that Distribution Date occurs (or with respect to the First Distribution Date,
to but not including October 25, 2007) on the Current Principal Amount hereof at
a per annum rate equal to the Pass-Through Rate as described in the
Agreement.  The Grantor Trust Trustee will distribute on the
Underlying Security Distribution Date of each month (each, a “Distribution
Date”) to the Person in whose name this Grantor Trust Certificate is registered
at the close of business on the last Business Day of the calendar month
preceding the month of such Distribution Date (or with respect to the First
Distribution Date, the Closing Date), an amount equal to the product of
Percentage Interest evidenced by this Grantor Trust Certificate and the amount
(of interest and principal, if any) required to be distributed to the Holders of
Grantor Trust Certificates of the same Class as this Grantor Trust Certificate,
commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above. The Underlying
Security Distribution Date is the 25th day of each month, or, if such 25th day
is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day.

     

    Distributions
on this Grantor Trust Certificate will be made by the Grantor Trust Trustee by
check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such name and
address shall appear on the Certificate Register or, if such Person so requests
by notifying the Grantor Trust Trustee in writing as specified in the Agreement,
by wire transfer. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this
Grantor Trust Certificate will be made after due notice by the Grantor Trust
Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and
surrender of this Grantor Trust Certificate at the office or agency appointed by
the Grantor Trust Trustee for that purpose and designated in such notice. The
Initial Current Principal Amount of this Grantor Trust Certificate is set forth
above. The Current Principal Amount hereof will be reduced to the extent of
distributions allocable to principal hereon and any Realized Losses allocable
hereto.

     

    This
Grantor Trust Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Grantor Trust
Certificates designated as set forth on the face hereof (the “Grantor Trust
Certificates”), issued in one Class. The Grantor Trust Certificates evidence the
entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund formed pursuant to the
Agreement.

     

    The
Grantor Trust Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Grantor Trust
Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the Trust Fund for payment
hereunder and that none of the Depositor or the Grantor Trust Trustee are liable
to the Grantor Trust Certificateholders for any amount payable under this
Grantor Trust Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in
the Agreement, subject to any liability under the Agreement.

     

    This
Grantor Trust Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of
rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Grantor Trust Trustee.

     

    The
Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment
thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor and
the Grantor Trust Trustee and the rights of the Grantor Trust Certificateholders
related to the Trust Fund under the Agreement from time to time by the parties
thereto with the consent of the Holders of the Grantor Trust Certificates,
evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 51% of the Grantor
Trust Certificates (or in certain cases, Holders of the Grantor Trust
Certificates of affected Classes evidencing such percentage of the Percentage
Interests thereof). Any such consent by the Holder of this Grantor Trust
Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future
Holders of this Grantor Trust Certificate and of any Grantor Trust Certificate
issued upon the transfer hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of
such consent is made upon this Grantor Trust Certificate. The Agreement also
permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the
consent of the Holders of any of the Grantor Trust Certificates.

     

    As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
the transfer of this Grantor Trust Certificate is registrable with the Grantor
Trust Trustee upon surrender of this Grantor Trust Certificate for registration
of transfer at the offices or agencies maintained by the Grantor Trust Trustee
for such purposes, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Grantor Trust Trustee duly executed by the
Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and
accompanied by the information required to be provided to the Grantor Trust
Trustee for WHFIT reporting purposes as described in the Agreement, and
thereupon one or more new Grantor Trust Certificates in authorized denominations
representing a like aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the
designated transferee.

     

    The
Grantor Trust Certificates are issuable only as registered Grantor Trust
Certificates without coupons in the Classes and denominations specified in the
Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, this Grantor Trust Certificate is exchangeable for one or
more new Grantor Trust Certificates evidencing the same Class and in the same
aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the
same.

     

    No
service charge will be made to the Grantor Trust Certificateholders for any such
registration of transfer, but the Grantor Trust Trustee may require payment of a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in
connection therewith. The Depositor, Grantor Trust Trustee and any agent of any
of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the
owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Grantor Trust
Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

     

    The
obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby (other
than the obligations to make payments to Grantor Trust Certificateholders with
respect to the termination of the Agreement related to the Trust Fund) shall
terminate upon the later of (i) the making of the final payment on or other
liquidation of the Underlying Securities, or (ii) the payment to the Grantor
Trust Certificateholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to
the Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust Fund created by the
Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years after the death of certain
persons identified in the Agreement.

     

    Unless
this Grantor Trust Certificate has been countersigned by an authorized signatory
of the Grantor Trust Trustee by manual signature, this Grantor Trust Certificate
shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement, or be valid for any
purpose.

    Note:  The
definitions above describe the essential function that the party performs,
rather than the party’s title.  So, for example, in a particular
transaction, the Grantor Trust Trustee may perform the “paying agent” and
“securities administrator” functions, while in another transaction, the
securities administrator may perform these functions.

there are multiple checks for criteria the attesting party will identify in

      The
purpose of this letter agreement is to confirm the terms and conditions of the
Transaction entered into on the Trade Date specified below (the “Transaction”)
between Bear Stearns Capital Markets Inc. (“Bear
Stearns”) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, not individually,
but solely as Grantor Trust Trustee for Bear Stearns Structured Products Inc.
Trust 2007-R3 (“Counterparty”).
This letter agreement constitutes the sole and complete “Confirmation,” as
referred to in the “Master Agreement” (as defined below), with respect to the
Transaction.

       

      1.           This
Confirmation is subject to and incorporates the 2006 ISDA Definitions (the
“Definitions”),
as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc.
(“ISDA”).
The parties agree to negotiate, execute and deliver an agreement in the form of
the 1992 ISDA Master Agreement (Multicurrency—Cross Border) (the “Form
Master Agreement”), together with the schedule thereto and any other
related documents, each in form and substance as the parties shall in good faith
agree (collectively, the “Executed
Master Agreement”).  In addition, the parties agree that until
execution and delivery of the Executed Master Agreement, a Form Master
Agreement, shall be deemed to have been executed and delivered by the parties on
the Trade Date of the first transaction that by its terms is intended to be
governed by a Master Agreement.  All provisions contained in, or
incorporated by reference to, the Form Master Agreement or the Executed Master
Agreement (as applicable, the “Master
Agreement”) shall govern the Transaction referenced in this Confirmation,
except as expressly modified below.  This Confirmation, together with
all of the other documents confirming any and all Transactions entered into
between us (regardless of which branch, if any, either of us has acted through)
that by their terms are intended to be governed by a Master Agreement, shall
supplement, form a part of and be subject to the Master Agreement.  In
the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Confirmation and
the Definitions or Master Agreement, this Confirmation shall prevail for the
purpose of this Transaction.  Terms capitalized but not defined herein
shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Grantor Trust Agreement, dated as
of October 24, 2007 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Grantor
Trust Agreement”) among Structured Asset Mortgage Investments II, Inc.,
as depositor (the “Depositor”),
and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as grantor trust trustee (the “Grantor
Trust Trustee”).

unenforceable (in whole or in part) for any reason, the remaining terms,

obligations, whether absolute or contingent, under such Section, then unless
Party A is required pursuant to appropriate proceedings to return to Party B or
otherwise returns to Party B upon demand of Party B any portion of any such
payment (a) the occurrence of an event described in Section 5(a) with respect to
Party B shall not constitute an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default

designated an Early Termination Date pursuant to Section 6 only as a result of
the occurrence of a Termination Event set forth in either Section 5(b)(i) or

      period)  following payment in full of the Grantor Trust
      Certificates and the Underlying Reference
  Certificates.

              

      

      
        	
                 

              

      

      10)  Set-off.  Notwithstanding
any provision of the Form Master Agreement or any other existing or future
agreement, each party irrevocably waives any and all rights it may have to set

otherwise modify its then-current rating of the Grantor Trust Certificates as a
result of such transfer, amendment, waiver, supplement, assignment or other
modification; provided that upon notice to the Rating Agencies, Bear Stearns may
transfer the Transaction(s) pursuant to the Form Master Agreement and all of its
interests in such Transaction(s) and all of its Obligations in or under the Form
Master Agreement to its Credit Support Provider or any affiliates thereof, and
if such transfer is to an entity other than its Credit Support Provider, Bear
Stearns will furnish to Counterparty a Guaranty of such Credit Support Provider
which guarantees all of such transferee’s Obligations in the form of the
Guaranty of the Credit Support Provider of Bear Stearns delivered in connection
with the Form Master Agreement (other than the name of the guaranteed party, the
effective date and the date of such guaranty).  Upon such transfer, Bear
Stearns will be fully released from any and all Obligations and liabilities
related to the interests assigned. 

      

      12)  Limited Recourse
Non-petition.  The liability of the Counterparty in relation to
the Form Master Agreement and any Confirmation hereunder is limited in recourse
to assets in the Trust Fund (as defined in the Grantor Trust Agreement) and
payments of interest proceeds and principal proceeds thereon applied in
accordance with the terms of the Grantor Trust Agreement.  Upon
application of  all of the assets in the Trust Fund (and proceeds
thereon) in accordance with the  Grantor Trust Agreement, Bear Stearns
shall not be entitled to take any further steps against the Counterparty to
recover any sums due but still unpaid hereunder or thereunder, all claims in
respect of which shall be extinguished.

      

      13)  Non-Reliance.  Each
party represents to the other party that (a) it has not received and is not
relying upon any legal, tax, regulatory, accounting or other advice (whether
written or oral) of the other party regarding this Transaction, other than
representations expressly made by that other party in this Confirmation and in
the Form Master Agreement and (b) in respect of this Transaction, (i) it has the
capacity to evaluate (internally or through independent professional advice)
this Transaction and has made its own decision to enter into this Transaction
and (ii) it understands the terms, conditions and risks of this Transaction and
is willing to assume (financially and otherwise) those
risks.  Counterparty acknowledges that Bear Stearns has advised
Counterparty to consult its own tax, accounting and legal advisors in connection
with this Transaction evidenced by this Confirmation and that the Counterparty
has done so.

      

      14)  Eligible Contract
Participant.  Each party represents that it constitutes an
“eligible contract participant” as such term is defined in Section 1(a)12 of the
Commodity Exchange Act, as amended.

      

      15)
 Limitation of
Liability.  It is expressly understood and agreed by the
parties hereto that (a) this letter agreement is executed and delivered by the
Grantor Trust Trustee, not individually or personally but solely as the Grantor
Trust Trustee for the Grantor Trust, in the exercise of the powers and authority
conferred and vested in it, (b) the representation, undertakings and agreements
herein made on part of the Grantor Trust are made and intended not as personal
representations, undertakings and agreements by the Grantor Trust Trustee but
are made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Grantor Trust, (c)
nothing herein contained shall be construed as creating any liability on the
Grantor Trust Trustee, individually or personally, to perform any convenient
either expressed or implied contained herein, all such liability, if any, being
expressly waived by the parties who are signatories to this letter agreement and
by any person claiming by, through or under such parties and (d) under no
circumstances shall the Grantor Trust Trustee be personally liable for the
payment of any indebtedness or expenses of the Grantor Trust or be liable for
the breach or failure of any obligation, representation, warranty or covenant
made or undertaken by the Grantor Trust under this letter agreement, other than
due to its negligence or willful misconduct in performing the obligations of the
Grantor Trust Trustee under the Grantor Trust Agreement.

      

      16)
 Amendments to Grantor
Trust Agreement and Underlying Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.  On or prior to the Termination Date, without the
prior written consent of Bear Stearns, Counterparty shall not (i) amend the
Grantor Trust Agreement or enter into any amendment or supplemental agreement to
the Grantor Trust Agreement if such amendment or supplemental agreement could
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the interests of
Bear Stearns hereunder or under the Grantor Trust Agreement or (ii) consent to
any amendment or supplemental agreement to the Underlying Agreement if such
amendment or supplemental agreement could reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse effect on the interests of Bear Stearns hereunder or on the
interests of a holder of the Underlying Securities under the Underlying
Agreement.  With respect to any amendment or supplement that would
have effect prior to the Termination Date, Counterparty will furnish to Bear
Stearns a copy of each proposed and each executed amendment or supplemental
agreement and copies of any related Rating Agency confirmation therewith, if
any.

                (a)         
      If Bear Stearns (or its guarantor) fails to have the First Trigger
      Required Ratings, Bear Stearns shall (within 30 days from such failure),
      at its own expense, (i) transfer its rights and obligations under the Form
      Master Agreement to a replacement party that has (or whose guarantor has)
      the First Trigger Required Ratings, (ii) post collateral to Counterparty
      to secure Bear Stearns’ obligations under the Form Master Agreement in
      such amount that the Rating Agencies confirm in writing will be sufficient

      guarantor having the First Trigger Required Ratings for Bear Stearns’
      obligations under the Form Master Agreement with a form of guaranty
      satisfying the Rating Agency Condition; provided that if such form of
      guaranty is identical to the Guaranty (other than the name of the
      guarantor, the effective date and the date of such guaranty), satisfaction
      of the Rating Agency Condition shall not be required and Bear Stearns
      shall provide a copy of such guaranty to each Rating Agency then rating
      the Grantor Trust Certificates or (iv) take such other steps that
      satisfies the Rating Agency
Condition.

              

      

      

      (b)           If

own expense, seek to (i) transfer its rights and obligations under the Form
Master Agreement to a replacement party that has (or whose guarantor has) the
First Trigger Required Ratings, (ii) obtain a guarantor having the First Trigger
Required Ratings for Bear Stearns’ obligations under the Form Master Agreement
with a form of guaranty satisfying the Rating Agency Condition; provided that if
such form of guaranty is identical to the Guaranty (other than the name of the
guarantor, the effective date and the date of such guaranty), satisfaction of
the Rating Agency Condition shall not be required and Bear Stearns shall provide
a copy of such guaranty to each Rating Agency then rating the Grantor Trust
Certificates or (iii) take such other steps that satisfies the Rating Agency
Condition.
