hereby shall be known as the "Corporate -Backed Trust Certificates, Series
2001-6 Trust." The Certificates evidencing certain undivided ownership interests
therein shall be known as "Corporate -Backed Trust Certificates, Series 2001-6."
The Certificates shall consist of the Class A-1 Certificates, the Class A-2
Certificates and the Class A-3 Certificates (together, the "Certificates").
(a) The Certificates shall be held through the Depository in
book-entry form and shall be substantially in the forms attached hereto as
Exhibits A-1, A-2 and A-3. The Class A-1 Certificates shall be issued in
denominations of $25. The Class A-2 Certificates shall be issued in minimum
denominations of $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof. One Class A-2 Certificate may be issued in an amount that is not an
integral multiple of the applicable minimum denomination. The Class A-3
Certificates shall be issued in minimum notional denominations of $1,000,000 and
in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. One Class A-3 Certificate may
be issued in a notional amount that is not an integral multiple of the
applicable minimum denomination. Except as provided in the Standard Terms and in
paragraph (d) of this Section, the Trust shall not issue additional Certificates
or incur any indebtedness.
(b) The Class A-1 Certificates have an initial aggregate certificate
principal amount ("Certificate Principal Amount") of $53,090,825. The 9.75%
Underlying Securities will mature on May 15, 2021. The Class A-1 Certificates
shall be redeemed pro rata on the June 15, 2021 Distribution Date to the extent
of the principal proceeds of the 9.75% Underlying Securities in accordance with
Section 5(a)(i) hereof. The Class A-2 Certificates have an initial aggregate
Certificate Principal Amount of $3,634,175. The Class A-3 Certificates are
interest-only Certificates, and have a notional principal amount equal to the
outstanding principal balance of the 9.75% Underlying Securities.
(c) The holders of the Class A-1 Certificates will be entitled to
receive interest at a rate of 9.00% per annum on the outstanding Certificate
Principal Amount of the Class A-1 Certificates. The Class A-2 Certificates shall
not bear interest. The holders of the Class A-3 Certificates will be entitled to
9
receive interest at a rate of 0.75% per annum on the outstanding notional
principal amount of the Class A-3 Certificates. On June 15, 2001, the Trustee
will pay to the Depositor the amount of interest accrued on the 9.75% Underlying
Securities from November 15, 2000 to but not including February 1, 2001.
Interest accrued on the 9.75 Underlying Securities from February 1, 2001 to the
Closing Date will be used to cover interest payable with respect to the
Certificate Note Principal Component Amount of the Class A-1 Certificates from
May 15, 2001 until June 15, 2001. On June 15, 2001, the Trustee will pay to the
Depositor the amount of interest accrued on the 8.30% Underlying Securities from

(d) The Depositor may sell to the Trustee additional Underlying
Securities on any date hereafter upon at least 3 Business Days (or such lesser
period as may be agreed by the parties hereto) notice to the Trustee and upon
(i) satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition and (ii) delivery of an Opinion
of Counsel to the effect that the sale of such additional Underlying Securities
will not materially increase the likelihood that the Trust would fail to qualify
as a grantor trust under the Code. Upon such sale to the Trustee, the Trustee
shall deposit such additional Underlying Securities in the Certificate Account,
and shall authenticate and deliver to the Depositor, or its order, Class A-1,
Class A-2 and Class A-3 Certificates in the same proportion as the original
Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 Certificates, with an aggregate Certificate
Principal Amount equal to the principal amount of such additional Underlying
Securities. Any such additional Class A-1 Certificates, Class A-2 Certificates
and Class A-3 Certificates authenticated and delivered shall have the same terms
and rank pari passu with the original Class A-1 Certificates, Class A-2
Certificates and Class A-3 Certificates, respectively, issued in accordance with
this Series Supplement.

(2) second, to the holders of the Class A-1 Certificates and the
Class A-2 Certificates, pro rata in the proportion that the Certificate Note

11
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, amounts recovered in
respect of the 9.75% Underlying Securities prior to the Final Scheduled
Distribution Date following (i) an acceleration of the date of maturity of the
Underlying Securities, (ii) prepayment of the Underlying Securities by the
Underlying Securities Issuer, or (iii) the sale of the Underlying Securities by
the Trust, shall be distributed pursuant to the priorities specified in Section
5(a)(i) hereof. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, amounts recovered in
respect of the 8.30% Underlying Securities prior to the Final Scheduled
Distribution Date following (i) an acceleration of the date of maturity of the
Underlying Securities, (ii) prepayment of the Underlying Securities by the
Underlying Securities Issuer or (iii) the sale of the Underlying Securities by
the Trust, shall be distributed pursuant to the priorities specified in Section
5(a)(ii) hereof.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, in the event of the
occurrence of (i) a payment default on the Underlying Securities or (ii) an
acceleration of the date of maturity of the Underlying Securities in connection
with a default thereon, the Trustee shall proceed against the Underlying
Securities Issuer on behalf of the Certificateholders to enforce the Underlying
Securities or otherwise to protect the interests of the Certificateholders,
provided that, holders of the Certificates representing a majority of the Voting
Rights on the Certificates will be entitled to direct the Trustee in any such
proceeding or direct the Trustee to sell the Underlying Securities. If the
Trustee is directed to sell the Underlying Securities, the Trustee shall solicit
bids for the sale of the Underlying Securities with settlement thereof on or
before the third (3rd) Business Day after such sale from three leading dealers
in the relevant market. Any of the following dealers (or their successors) shall
be deemed to qualify as leading dealers: (1) Credit Suisse First Boston
Corporation, (2) Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Co., (3) Xxxxxx Brothers Inc., (4) Xxxxxxx
Xxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated, (5) UBS Securities LLC and (6)
Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx Inc. The Trustee shall not be responsible for the failure
to obtain a bid so long as it has made reasonable efforts to obtain bids. If a
bid for the sale of the Underlying Securities has been accepted by the Trustee
but the sale has failed to settle on the proposed settlement date, the Trustee
shall request new bids from such leading dealers. In the event of such sale or
of an acceleration and a corresponding payment on the Underlying Securities, the
Trustee shall distribute the proceeds to the Certificateholders no later than
two Business Days after the receipt of immediately available funds in accordance
with Section 5(b) hereof.
(d) In the event that the Trustee receives non-cash property in
respect of the Underlying Securities as a result of a payment default on the
Underlying Securities (including from the sale thereof), the Trustee will
promptly give notice to the Depositary, or for any Certificates which are not
then held by DTC or any other depository, directly to the registered holders of
the Certificates then outstanding and unpaid. Such notice shall state that, not
later than 30 days after the receipt of such moneys or other property, the
Trustee will allocate and distribute such property in accordance with Section
5(b) hereof (after deducting the costs incurred in connection therewith).
Property other than cash will be liquidated by the Trustee, and the proceeds
thereof distributed in cash, only to the extent necessary to avoid distribution
of fractional securities to Certificateholders. In-kind distribution of such
12
property to Certificateholders will be deemed to reduce the principal amount of
Certificates on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
(e) Subject to Section 9(f) hereof, to the extent Available Funds are
insufficient to make any required distributions due to any Class of Certificates
on any Distribution Date, any shortfall will be carried over and will be
distributed on the next Distribution Date on which sufficient funds are
available on the Available Funds to pay such shortfall.
(f) If a payment with respect to the Underlying Securities is made to
the Trustee after the Distribution Date on which such payment was due, then the
Trustee will distribute any such amounts received on the next occurring Business
Day (a "Special Distribution Date") as if the funds had constituted Available
Funds on the Distribution Date immediately preceding such Special Distribution
Date; provided, however, that the Record Date for such Special Distribution Date
shall be five Business Days prior to the day on which the related payment was
received from either of the Underlying Securities Trustees.
Section 6. Trustee's Fees. (a) As compensation for its services
hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to the Trustee Fee. The Trustee Fee
shall be paid by the Depositor and not from Trust Property. The Trustee shall
bear all Ordinary Expenses. Failure by the Depositor to pay such amount shall
not entitle the Trustee to any payment or reimbursement from the Trust, nor
shall such failure release the Trustee from the duties it is required to perform
under the Trust Agreement.
(b) Extraordinary Expenses shall not be paid out of the Trust
Property unless all the Certificateholders then outstanding have voted to
require the Trustee to incur such Extraordinary Expenses. The Trustee may incur
other Extraordinary Expenses if any lesser percentage of the Certificateholders
requesting such action pursuant hereto reimburse the Trustee for the cost
thereof from their own funds in advance. If Extraordinary Expenses are not
approved unanimously as set forth in the first sentence of this Section 6(b),
such Extraordinary Expenses shall not be an obligation of the Trust, and the
Trustee shall not file any claim against the Trust therefor notwithstanding
failure of certificateholders to reimburse the Trustee.
Section 7. Optional Exchange; Optional Call.
(a) (i) With respect to the 8.30% Underlying Securities and the 9.75%
Underlying Securities, on each Distribution Date (or, if the Depositor or an
Affiliate of the Depositor holds all of the Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3
Certificates, on any other date) the Depositor or any Affiliate of the
Depositor, if it is then the holder of Class A-1 Certificates of a certain
principal amount (the "Class A-1 Exchange Principal Amount") and Class A-2
Certificates and Class A-3 Certificates in a principal or notional principal
amount that in each case represents the same percentage of the aggregate
outstanding principal or notional principal amount of the relevant class that
the Class A-1 Exchange Principal Amount represents of the aggregate outstanding
13
principal amount of the Class A-1 Certificates, may tender such Certificates to
the Trustee on such date and receive a distribution of Underlying Securities
with an unpaid principal balance equal to the sum of the principal amounts of
the Class A-1 Certificates and the Class A-2 Certificates being exchanged. Such
distribution shall consist of 8.30% Underlying Securities and 9.75% Underlying
Securities in the same ratio as such different securities on deposit hereunder
bear to each other on the date hereof. Any right to exchange under this Section
7(a) shall be exercisable only (a) to the extent that the Depositor provides
upon the Trustee's request an opinion of counsel that such exchange would not
affect the characterization of the Trust as a "grantor trust" for federal income
tax purposes and (b) to the extent permitted under Section 7(a)(iv) hereof.
(ii) Any such Affiliate of the Depositor must provide notice to the
Trustee (an "Exchange Request") no less than 15 days (or such shorter period
acceptable to the Trustee) but not more than 30 days prior to an Optional
Exchange Date that it requests an Optional Exchange of Certificates on such
Optional Exchange Date.
(iii) The Trustee shall not be obligated to determine whether an
Optional Exchange complies with the applicable provisions for exemption under
Rule 3a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the rules or
regulations promulgated thereunder.
(iv) Any such Optional Exchange by any Affiliate of the Depositor,
will be subject to the following restrictions: (a) certification to the Trustee
that any Certificates to be exchanged have been held for a minimum of six months
and (b) each Optional Exchange is limited in amount to a maximum of 5% (except
for Certificates acquired by the Underwriter but never distributed to investors,
in which case 25%) of the then outstanding principal amount of the Class A-2
Certificates or the outstanding notional amount of the Class A-3 Certificates,
provided, however, that such restrictions shall not apply to the exchange of
Certificates that were acquired pursuant to Section 7(b).
(v) The provisions of Section 4.07 of the Standard Terms shall not
apply to an Optional Exchange pursuant to this Section. This Section 7 shall not
provide the Depositor with a lien against, an interest in or a right to specific
performance with respect to the Underlying Securities.
(b) (i) On any Call Date, the Certificates may be called at the Call
Price, in whole or in part, by the Rights Holder, or an affiliate thereof, upon
payment of the Call Price on or prior to such Call Date.
(ii) The Rights Holder may provide notice to the Trustee (a "Call
Request") no less than 5 Business Days prior to any Call Date, that it is
exercising its Call Rights with respect to the Underlying Securities on such
Call Date.
(iii) Upon receipt of a Call Request, the Trustee shall provide a
conditional call notice to the Depository not less than 3 Business Days prior to
the applicable Call Date.

(iv) As a condition to any Optional Call, an opinion of counsel to
the Rights Holder shall be delivered to the Rating Agencies, in form
satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, indicating that payment of the Call Price
shall not be recoverable as a preferential transfer or fraudulent conveyance
under the United States Bankruptcy Code. Such opinion may contain customary
assumptions and qualifications. In addition, the Rights Holder shall provide a
certificate of solvency to the Trustee.
(v) Deliveries of the Certificates called to the Rights Holder (the
"Purchaser") will only be made against payment by the Purchaser of the Call
Price in immediately available funds. Such payment must occur no later than
10:00 a.m. New York City time on the Call Date. In the event that the Purchaser
fails to make such payment by such time (a "Purchase Default"), the sale shall
be voided and the Optional Call will be deemed not to be effective with respect
to such Distribution Date, and the Certificates and the Call Rights shall
continue to remain outstanding. Subject to receipt of the Call Price as
aforesaid, the Trustee shall pay the Call Price to the Certificateholders on the
Call Date.
(vi) The Trustee shall not consent to any amendment or modification
of this Agreement (including the Standard Terms) which would alter the timing or
amount of any payment of the Call Price without the prior written consent of the
Rights Holder. Any amendment to the Call Price for any Class of Certificates
shall require the consent of 100% of the holders of such Class (but shall be
deemed to have no adverse effect on holders of the other Class of Certificates).
(vii) The Trustee shall not be obligated to determine whether an
Optional Call complies with the applicable provisions for exemption under Rule
3a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the rules or
regulations promulgated thereunder.
(viii) This Section 7 shall not provide the Rights Holder with a lien
against, an interest in or a right to specific performance with respect to the
Underlying Securities.
(ix) The Rights Holder shall initially be the Depositor and such Call
Rights may be transferred. However, the Trustee is under no obligation to
recognize any notice of transfer unless it is signed by the transferor and the
transferee.
Section 8. Events of Default.
Within 30 days of the occurrence of an Event of Default in respect of
the Certificates, the Trustee will give notice to the Certificateholders,
transmitted by mail, of all such uncured or unwaived Events of Default known to
it. However, except in the case of an Event of Default relating to the payment
of principal, if any, or interest on any of the Underlying Securities, the
Trustee will be protected in withholding such notice if in good faith it
determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the
Certificateholders.
15
Section 9. Miscellaneous.
(a) The provisions of Section 4.04, Advances, of the Standard Terms
shall not apply to the Series 2001-6 Certificates.
(b) The provisions of Section 4.07, Optional Exchange, of the
Standard Terms shall not apply to the Series 2001-6 Certificates.
(c) The Trustee shall simultaneously forward reports to
Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.03 of the Standard Terms and to the New
York Stock Exchange.
(d) Except as expressly provided herein, the Certificateholders shall
not be entitled to terminate the Trust or cause the sale or other disposition of
the Underlying Securities.
(e) The provisions of Section 3.07(d) of the Standard Terms shall not
apply to the Series 2001-6 Certificates.
(f) If the Trustee has not received payment with respect to a
Collection Period on the Underlying Securities on or prior to the related
Distribution Date, such distribution will be made promptly upon receipt of such
payment. No additional amounts shall accrue on the Certificates or be owed to
Certificateholders as a result of such delay; provided, however, that any
additional interest owed and paid by the Underlying Securities Issuer as a
result of such delay shall be paid to the Certificateholders, proportionately to
the ratio of their respective entitlements to interest.
(g) The outstanding principal balance of the Certificates shall not
be reduced by the amount of any Realized Losses (as defined in the Standard
Terms).
(h) The Trust may not engage in any business or activities other than
in connection with, or relating to, the holding, protecting and preserving of
the Trust Property and the issuance of the Certificates, and other than those
required or authorized by the Trust Agreement or incidental and necessary to
accomplish such activities. The Trust may not issue or sell any certificates or
other obligations other than the Certificates or otherwise incur, assume or
guarantee any indebtedness for money borrowed.
(i) Notwithstanding anything in the Trust Agreement to the contrary,
the Trustee may be removed upon 60 days prior written notice delivered by the
holders of the Certificates representing the Required Percentage-Removal.
(j) In the event that the Internal Revenue Service challenges the
characterization of the Trust as a grantor trust, the Trustee shall then file
such forms as the Depositor may specify to establish the Trust's election
pursuant to Section 761 of the Code to exclude the Trust from the application of
Subchapter K of the Code and is hereby empowered to execute such forms on behalf
of the Certificateholders.
(k) Notwithstanding anything in the Standard Terms to the contrary,
the Trustee, upon written direction by the Depositor, will execute the
Certificates.
16
(l) In relation to Section 7.01(f) of the Standard Terms, any
periodic reports filed by the Trustee pursuant to the Securities and Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder,
in accordance with the customary practices of the Depositor, need not contain
any independent reports.
(n) Notwithstanding anything in the Trust Agreement to the contrary,
the Trustee will have no recourse to the Underlying Securities.
(o) The Trustee shall promptly notify each Rating Agency upon its
obtaining actual knowledge of the occurrence of a Defeasance (as defined in the
Indenture) with respect to the Underlying Securities Issuer.
(p) The Trust will not merge or consolidate with any other entity
without confirmation from each Rating Agency that such merger or consolidation
will not result in the qualification, reduction or withdrawal of its
then-current rating on the Certificates.
(q) Notices. All directions, demands and notices hereunder or under

Section 10. Governing Law. THIS SERIES SUPPLEMENT AND THE
TRANSACTIONS DESCRIBED HEREIN SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND
PERFORMED WITHIN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CHOICE OF
LAWS PROVISIONS THEREOF.
Section 11. Counterparts. This Series Supplement may be executed in
any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and
all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
Section 12. Termination of the Trust. The Trust shall terminate upon
the earliest to occur of (i) the payment in full at maturity or sale by the
Trust after a payment default on or an acceleration or other early payment of
the Underlying Securities and the distribution in full of all amounts due to the
Certificateholders; (ii) the Final Scheduled Distribution Date and (iii) the
expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of
Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St.
Xxxxx, living on the date hereof.
Section 13. Sale of Underlying Securities. In the event of a sale of
the Underlying Securities pursuant to Section 5(c) hereof, the Liquidation
Proceeds, if any, shall be deposited into the Certificate Account for
18
distribution to the Certificateholders. The Trustee shall only deliver the
Underlying Securities to the purchaser of such Underlying Securities against
payment in same day funds deposited into the Certificate Account.
Section 14. Amendments. Notwithstanding anything in the Trust
Agreement to the contrary, in addition to the other restrictions on modification
and amendment contained therein, the Trustee shall not enter into any amendment
or modification of the Trust Agreement which would adversely affect in any
material respect the interests of the holders of any class of Certificates
without the consent of the holders of 100% of such class of Certificates;
provided, however, that no such amendment or modification will be permitted
which would alter the status of the Trust as a grantor trust for federal income
tax purposes. Further, no amendment shall be permitted which would adversely
affect in any material respect the interests of any Class of Certificateholders
without confirmation by each Rating Agency that such amendment will not result
in a downgrading or withdrawal of its rating of such Certificates.
Section 15. Voting of Underlying Securities, Modification of
Indenture. The Trustee, as holder of the Underlying Securities, has the right to
vote and give consents and waivers in respect of the Underlying Securities as
permitted by the Depository and except as otherwise limited by the Trust
Agreement. In the event that the Trustee receives a request from the Depository,
either of the Underlying Securities Trustees or the Underlying Securities Issuer
for its consent to any amendment, modification or waiver of the Underlying
Securities, the Underlying Securities Indenture or any other document thereunder
or relating thereto, or receives any other solicitation for any action with
respect to the Underlying Securities, the Trustee shall mail a notice of such
proposed amendment, modification, waiver or solicitation to each
Certificateholder of record as of such date. The Trustee shall request
instructions from the Certificateholders as to whether or not to consent to or
vote to accept such amendment, modification, waiver or solicitation. The Trustee
shall consent or vote, or refrain from consenting or voting, in the same
proportion (based on the relative outstanding principal balances of the
Certificates) as the Class A-1 and the Class A-2 Certificates of the Trust were
actually voted or not voted by the Certificateholders thereof as of a date
determined by the Trustee prior to the date on which such consent or vote is
required, provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in the Trust
Agreement to the contrary, the Trustee shall at no time vote on or consent to
any matter (i) unless such vote or consent would not (based on an opinion of
counsel) alter the status of the Trust as a grantor trust for federal income tax
purposes or result in the imposition of tax upon the Certificateholders, (ii)
which would alter the timing or amount of any payment on the Underlying
Securities, including, without limitation, any demand to accelerate the
Underlying Securities, except in the event of a default under the Underlying
Securities or an event which with the passage of time would become an event of
default under the Underlying Securities and with the unanimous consent of all
outstanding Certificateholders, or (iii) which would result in the exchange or
substitution of any of the outstanding Underlying Securities pursuant to a plan
19
for the refunding or refinancing of such Underlying Securities except in the
event of a default under the Underlying Securities Indenture and only with the
consent of Certificateholders representing 100% of the Class A-1 Certificates,
100% of the Class A-2 Certificates and 100% of the Class A-3 Certificates. The
Trustee shall have no liability for any failure to act resulting from
Certificateholders' late return of, or failure to return, directions requested
by the Trustee from the Certificateholders.
In the event that an offer is made by the Underlying Securities
Issuer to issue new obligations in exchange and substitution for any of the
Underlying Securities, pursuant to a plan for the refunding or refinancing of
the outstanding Underlying Securities or any other offer is made for the
Underlying Securities, the Trustee shall notify all of the Certificateholders of
such offer promptly. The Trustee must reject any such offer unless the Trustee
is directed by the affirmative vote of the holders of 100% of all of the
Certificates to accept such offer and the Trustee has received the tax opinion
described above.
If an event of default under the Indenture occurs and is continuing,
and if directed by a majority of the outstanding Class A-1 and Class A-2
Certificateholders, the Trustee shall vote the Underlying Securities in an
outstanding principal amount equal to the outstanding certificate principal
amount of the Class A-1 and Class A-2 Certificates in favor of directing, or
take such other action as may be appropriate to direct, either of the Underlying
Securities Trustees to declare the unpaid principal amount of the Underlying
Securities and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to be due and payable.

Certificate does not purport to summarize the Trust Agreement and reference is
hereby made to the Trust Agreement for information with respect to the
interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds and duties evidenced hereby
and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee with respect hereto. A
copy of the Trust Agreement may be obtained from the Trustee by written request
sent to the Corporate Trust Office. Capitalized terms used but not defined
herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Trust Agreement.
This Certificate is one of the duly authorized Certificates
designated as the "Corporate Backed Trust Certificates, Series 2001-6 (herein
called the "Certificates"). This Certificate is issued under and is subject to
the terms, provisions and conditions of the Trust Agreement, to which Trust

assents and by which such Holder is bound. The Trust Property consists of: (i)
Underlying Securities described in the Trust Agreement; (ii) all payments on or
collections in respect of the Underlying Securities accrued on or after March
1, 2001 together with any proceeds thereof; and (iii) all funds from time to

nominee. Except as otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement and
notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be
made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and
only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the Corporate Trust
Office or such other location as may be specified in such notice.
Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this
