balance sheet of the Trust Assets, which will cover the period from the last statement of account
submitted up to the effective date of such resignation or substitution.
The Settlor will have a period of 15 (fifteen) calendar days from its receipt of the report to
examine said report and formulate the clarifications it deems pertinent. Once this period has
expired without any observation having been presented, such report will be tacitly approved.
Upon appointing the successor or successor to the fiduciary function, the new trustee or trustees
will be invested with all the authority, rights, powers and obligations established for the Trustee
under this Trust Agreement and those that may arise by law, and shall take possession of the assets
that then make up the Trust Assets, which will be transferred in accordance with the applicable tax
provisions. From that moment on, all references in this Agreement made to the Trustee will be
understood to be made to the substitute trustee or trustees.
EIGHTEENTH.- DEFENSE OF THE TRUST ASSETS. The Trustee will not be responsible for deeds, acts or
omissions of the Parties or of third parties or of authorities that may impede or hinder
fulfillment of the objectives of this Agreement; in the event a conflict arises that might affect
the Trust Assets, the Trustee’s responsibility will be limited to granting, in due time and form,
at the expense of the Trust Assets, sufficient powers of attorney to the person or persons the
Settlor may appoint in writing.
Therefore, the Trustee will not be responsible for the results of the actions of the
attorneys-in-fact or for the payment of professional fees or expenses. If the Trustee receives a
notice, summons or any claim related to the Trust Assets, it will immediately make the Settlor or
the attorney-in-fact, if any, aware of it so that it may intercede in defense of the Trust Assets;
with this notice and the granting of the corresponding powers of attorney under the preceding
paragraph, the Trustee’s responsibility shall cease.
NINETEENTH.- TAXES. All taxes that may arise from the transactions carried out in furtherance of
the ends established in this Trust Agreement will be for the account and at the expense of the
Party on whom the applicable tax provisions impose said charge, and the Trustee will thus assume no
liability for such obligations.
TWENTIETH.- ASSIGNMENT OR TRANSFER OF FIDUCIARY RIGHTS. The Beneficiary may not assign or in any
other way transfer its rights as beneficiary under this Agreement unless it has the prior written
consent of the Trustee, such consent not to be withheld without justification, since such rights
are of an extremely individual nature. In no event may the Beneficiary pledge its beneficiary
rights in guarantee unless it has

the prior written consent of the Trustee, such consent not to be withheld without justification;
without such consent, such encumbrance or guarantee will be null and void, will have no legal
effect whatsoever and will not be recognized by the Trustee.
