Amendment and Termination of Agreement (a) We may amend any provision of this Agreement by giving you written notice of the amendment. Either party to this Agreement may terminate the Agreement without cause by giving the other party at least thirty (30) days' written notice of its intention to terminate. This Agreement will terminate automatically in the event of its assignment (as defined in the 1940 Act).
Certain Matters Relating to the Determination of LIBOR LIBOR shall be calculated by the Securities Administrator in accordance with the definition of LIBOR. Until all of the LIBOR Certificates are paid in full, the Securities Administrator will at all times retain at least four Reference Banks for the purpose of determining LIBOR with respect to each LIBOR Determination Date. The Securities Administrator initially shall designate the Reference Banks (after consultation with the Depositor). Each “Reference Bank” shall be a leading bank engaged in transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the international Eurocurrency market, shall not control, be controlled by, or be under common control with, the Securities Administrator and shall have an established place of business in London. If any such Reference Bank should be unwilling or unable to act as such or if the Securities Administrator should terminate its appointment as Reference Bank, the Securities Administrator shall promptly appoint or cause to be appointed another Reference Bank (after consultation with the Depositor). The Securities Administrator shall have no liability or responsibility to any Person for (i) the selection of any Reference Bank for purposes of determining LIBOR or (ii) any inability to retain at least four Reference Banks which is caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control. The Interest Rate for each Class of LIBOR Certificates for each Interest Accrual Period shall be determined by the Securities Administrator on each LIBOR Determination Date so long as the LIBOR Certificates are outstanding on the basis of LIBOR and the respective formulae appearing in footnotes corresponding to the LIBOR Certificates in the table relating to the Certificates in the Preliminary Statement. The Securities Administrator shall not have any liability or responsibility to any Person for its inability, following a good-faith reasonable effort, to obtain quotations from the Reference Banks or to determine the arithmetic mean referred to in the definition of LIBOR, all as provided for in this Section 4.04 and the definition of LIBOR. The establishment of LIBOR and each Interest Rate for the LIBOR Certificates by the Securities Administrator shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final, conclusive and binding upon each Holder of a Certificate and the Trustee.
Amendment of Agreement This Agreement may be amended only by written agreement of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser and only in accordance with the provisions of the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness of this Amendment This Amendment shall not become effective until all of the following conditions precedent shall have been satisfied in the sole discretion of Agent or waived by Agent:

Termination and Amendment of Agreement The Corporation and the Custodian mutually may agree from time to time in writing to amend, to add to, or to delete from any provision of this Agreement. The Custodian may terminate this Agreement by giving the Corporation ninety days' written notice of such termination by registered mail addressed to the Corporation at its principal place of business. The Corporation may terminate this Agreement at any time by written notice thereof delivered, together with a copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors authorizing such termination and certified by the Secretary of the Corporation, by registered mail to the Custodian. Upon such termination of this Agreement, assets of the Corporation held by the Custodian shall be delivered by the Custodian to a successor custodian, if one has been appointed by the Corporation, upon receipt by the Custodian of a copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors of the Corporation certified by the Secretary, showing appointment of the successor custodian, and provided that such successor custodian is a bank or trust company, organized under the laws of the United States or of any State of the United States, having not less than two million dollars aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profits. Upon the termination of this Agreement as a part of the transfer of assets, either to a successor custodian or otherwise, the Custodian will deliver securities held by it hereunder, when so authorized and directed by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, to a duly appointed agent of the successor custodian or to the appropriate transfer agents for transfer of registration and delivery as directed. Delivery of assets on termination of this Agreement shall be effected in a reasonable, expeditious and orderly manner; and in order to accomplish an orderly transition from the Custodian to the successor custodian, the Custodian shall continue to act as such under this Agreement as to assets in its possession or control. Termination as to each security shall become effective upon delivery to the successor custodian, its agent, or to a transfer agent for a specific security for the account of the successor custodian, and such delivery shall constitute effective delivery by the Custodian to the successor under this Agreement. In addition to the means of termination herein before authorized, this Agreement may be terminated at any time by the vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Corporation and after written notice of such action to the Custodian.
