(c) In addition, on the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company hereby grants an option to the several Underwriters to purchase the Option Shares at the price per share as set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 2.

The time and date at which certificates for Option Shares are to be delivered shall be determined by the Representatives but shall not be earlier than three nor later than 10 full business days after the exercise of such option, nor in any event prior to the Closing Date (such time and date being herein referred to as the “Option Closing Date”).

(b) The Depositor hereby acknowledges that the payment of monies pursuant to Section 3(a) hereof (a “Payment”) by or on behalf of the Underwriters of the aggregate Purchase Price for the Notes does not constitute closing of a purchase and sale of the Notes. Only execution and delivery, by facsimile or otherwise, of a receipt for Notes by the Representative indicates completion of the closing of a purchase of the Notes from the Depositor. Furthermore, in the event that the Underwriters make a Payment to the Depositor prior to the completion of the closing of a purchase of Notes, the Depositor hereby acknowledges that until the Representative executes and delivers such receipt for the Notes the Depositor will not be entitled to the Payment and shall return the Payment to the Underwriters as soon as practicable (by wire transfer of same-day funds) upon demand.
