supplement (the initial notional amounts of these bonds will be $59,998,164,
$30,395,773, $7,063,023, $5,205,752, $18,261,000, $18,261,000, $25,565,000

interest rate risk that could result from the difference between the
interest rates on such certificates and the LIBOR available funds cap, as
described in the prospectus supplement.

cap agreements for the benefit of the Class M, Class B1, Class B2, Class B3
