The Customer may from time to time direct the Bank not to enter into loans with a Borrower, as the Customer specifies by written notice to the Bank, in each case notwithstanding the Customer's prior approval of such Borrower in accordance with the terms contained herein.

(e)

In connection with each Loan, to receive from the Borrower, at the time the Securities are loaned, Collateral of a value at least equal to (i) 105% of the then current Market Value of any Loaned Securities that are Foreign Securities, or (ii) 102% of the then current Market Value of any other Loaned Securities. Such Collateral shall be held as security by the Bank on behalf of the Customer for the due and punctual performance by the Borrower of any and all of the Borrower's obligations under the Borrower Agreement. Customer's uninvested Collateral and Proceeds and Collateral Investments shall be held in the Collateral Account.

To hold and safekeep the Collateral on behalf of the Customer with other securities lending collateral held by the Bank, provided that the Customer's specific interest in the Customer's Collateral shall at all times be noted in the records of the Bank, provided further, however, that all Collateral shall be held separate from any other securities held by the Bank on behalf of an other person or entity.

(g)	To invest Cash Collateral for the benefit of the Customer.

(h)	Upon termination of any Loan, to liquidate Collateral Investments and to return the Collateral to the Borrower in accordance with the Borrower Agreement so long as the Borrower is not in default and the Bank receives the Loaned Securities from the Borrower.

G) To pay to the Borrower all interest and dividend payments received on Securities which are held as Collateral, provided that there is no material default by the Borrower of the terms and conditions of the Borrower Agreement, in cases where the Borrower has provided non-cash Collateral in the form of securities, in whole or in part.

(k)	To originate or terminate any Loan at any time as the Bank may in its sole discretion determine pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, without prior notice to the Customer.

(n)

To group the Customer's securities together with the securities of other securities lending customers for the purposes of facilitating Loans to Borrowers. The Customer acknowledges that whether particular securities are loaned depends on many variables, including, but not limited to, the demand for a particular security by Borrowers, the Bank's automated queuing system for efficient utilization of all available securities for lending transactions, and the quantity of a particular security that is held in the lendable pool, and that the Bank cannot ensure that the Customer's Securities will become the subject of any particular Loan or that the Customer's Securities will be loaned.

4.	Voting Rights. Customer shall not retain voting rights of Loaned Securities while loaned to any Borrower.

Xxxx to Market. The Bank shall on a daily basis (a) Xxxx to Market Loaned Securities and Collateral.
