obligations with respect to the Transactions to the Assignee, and Assignee is
willing to accept such rights and benefits and assume such duties and
obligations of Assignor with respect to the Transactions;
WHEREAS, Bank One has entered into an arrangement with JPMorgan wherein
Bank One would assign its rights and benefits, duties and obligations with
respect to the Transactions to JPMorgan, and JPMorgan would accept such rights
and benefits and assume such duties and obligations of Bank One with respect to
the Transaction; and
WHEREAS, it is proposed that, following the Service Time (as defined in
Section 3 below), the Transactions be subject to that certain ISDA Master
Agreement between Assignee and JPMorgan dated as of May 21, 1995, as amended and
supplemented from time to time, governing the commodity to which the

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual
agreements herein contained and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
Section 1. ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION.
(a) Assignor hereby assigns, sells, transfers and conveys to the
Assignee all right, title, benefit, privileges, and interest of Assignor in, and
to the Transactions, between Assignor and Bank One (or Bank One's affiliates)
and other records relating to the Transactions (collectively, the "Assets"), and
Assignee hereby accepts assignment of such right, title, benefit, privileges,
and interest. Such assignment is "AS IS, WHERE IS" and "WITH ALL FAULTS," except
as otherwise specifically provided herein.
(b) Assignor hereby delegates to Assignee, and Assignee hereby
assumes and agrees to perform, the Liabilities of Assignor with respect to the
Transactions which are to be performed or accrue after the Service Time, except
to the extent such Liabilities arise from or relate to acts, omissions or events
occurring or conditions existing prior to the Service Time and the Liabilities
associated therewith (collectively, the "Assumed Liabilities"). All Liabilities
other than the Assumed Liabilities (the "Excluded Liabilities"), including but
not limited to those Liabilities relating to, resulting from, or arising out of
any breach of contract or any other actual
or alleged failure of Assignor to perform any obligation, in each case arising
out of, or relating to, the Transactions or the performance thereof prior to the
Service Time including any payment obligations arising from calculation periods
prior to the Service Time shall be the obligation and responsibility of
Assignor, and Assignee does not assume and shall not discharge, perform or be
responsible in any way for any Excluded Liabilities.
Section 2. CONSENT TO ASSIGNMENT. Bank One and JPMorgan each hereby consent to
the foregoing assignment by Assignor to Assignee of all the right, title,
benefit, privileges, and interest of Assignor in, and to the Transactions

liabilities, and in connection therewith releases Assignor from the Assumed
Liabilities and all of the terms, conditions, and covenants contained in the

shall not be construed as releasing Assignor in any way from any Excluded
Liabilities, which Bank One acknowledges and agrees are the sole obligation and
responsibility of Assignor.

certain ISDA Master Agreement between Assignee and JPMorgan dated as of May 21,

equitable principles or remedies, (ii) no breach or default (or event or
condition that, with notice or lapse of time or both would reasonably be
expected to constitute a breach or default) by JPMorgan exists thereunder, and
