Except as provided in Section 2(b), Securities Intermediary agrees that it shall not take “entitlement orders” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the UCC) or “instructions” (within the meaning of Section 9-104(a)(2) of the UCC) with respect to the Collateral Accounts or any assets or funds therein from any Person other than the Security Agent.
