(c) If the Trustee has not received payment with respect to a
Collection Period on the Underlying Securities on or prior to the related

result of such delay shall be paid to the Class A Certificateholders and Class B
Certificateholders, proportionately to the ratio of their respective
entitlements to interest payments.

Company Act of 1940, as amended and (ii) if and for so long as the call warrants
remain outstanding, all of the Call Holders have consented to such termination.
(c) To the extent that the provisions of this Section 13 conflict with
Section 10.01 of the Standard Terms, the latter shall control.
Section 14. Sale of Underlying Securities; Call Right
(a) In the case of Extraordinary Trust Expenses approved by 100% of
the Certificateholders of each Class, pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof, the

(b) [Intentionally Omitted]
(c) The Call Terms are as follows:
(i) The initial holders of the Call Rights are as named in the Call
Warrants and such holders may transfer the Call Rights, in whole or in
part, to one or more third parties in privately negotiated transactions;
(ii) A Call Holder that has met the exercise requirements set forth in

Holder's exercised Call Warrants, in Authorized Denominations of the Class
A or Class B Certificates at the Class A Call Price or Class B Call Price,
as applicable;
19
(iii) In order to exercise its Call Right on a Call Date, a Call
Holder must, not less than 30 days (or not less than three days in the case
of an announcement of any unscheduled payment of the Underlying Securities
or after receipt of notice of termination of the Trust or not less than
five Business Days prior to the expiration of a tender offer for the
Underlying Securities) but not more than 60 days prior to such Call Date:
(1) notify the Trustee in writing of its intention to exercise
such Call Right (which notice is irrevocable, subject to Section
2.02(i)(v) of the Warrant Agreement) and whether such exercise is in
connection with a tender offer for the Underlying Securities. In the
event that such notice is provided in connection with a tender offer
for the Underlying Securities, if the exercising Holder did not
receive from the Warrant Agent notice of a Tender Offer, then such
Holder shall also provide the Warrant Agent with any information the
Holder may have from a third-party source indicating that such Tender
Offer is pending.
(2) deposit the applicable Call Price with the Escrow Agent (the
"Escrow Deposit") to be held in escrow pursuant to an Escrow Agreement
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit E (to be entered into immediately preceding
delivery of the applicable Call Price by such Call Holder to the
Escrow Agent) until such Call Price is paid by the Trustee to the
Certificateholders in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section 14
or returned to the exercising Holders pursuant to subsection (i) of
Section 2.02 of the Warrant Agreement; provided, that if (a) all of
the outstanding Trust Certificates of a given Class are to be
purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants on an Exercise Date
and the exercising Call Holder at such time holds Class A Certificates
or Class B Certificates that are subject to Call Rights, the Call
Holder may deposit such Class A Certificates or Class B Certificates
with the Escrow Agent in lieu of the portion of the Call Price that
would relate thereto, and (b) if less than all of the outstanding
Class B Trust Certificates are to be purchased pursuant to the
exercise of the Warrants on an Exercise Date and the exercising Call
Holder at such time holds Class B Certificates that are subject to
Call Rights, the Call Holder may deposit such Class B Certificates
with the Escrow Agent in lieu of the portion of the Call Price that
would relate thereto.
(3) provide the Trustee with any other documents customary for a
transaction of this nature, including a certificate of the Call Holder
certifying the solvency of such Call Holder on such date; provided
that the Call Holder need not provide any such solvency certificate if
the rating of the senior, unsecured long-term debt of the Call Holder,
or the Call Holder's credit support provider, if applicable, by
Moody's and S&P is in one of the investment grade categories of
Xxxxx'x and S&P, respectively, on such date.
The provisions of this Section 14(c)(iii)(1) through (3) shall not apply if

and payment in full by the Underlying Securities Issuer of all amounts due upon
such acceleration.
20
(d) In connection with any exercise of the Call Rights to purchase
Class A Certificates, the Trustee shall select by lot (or by such other
reasonable procedure as may be established by the Trustee) a stated amount of
the outstanding Class A Certificates to be surrendered by the Class A
Certificateholders thereof to the Trustee upon any such exercise (other than
Class A Trust Certificates held by any Person to whom a Delivery Certificate was
delivered in accordance with Section 2.02(d) of the Warrant Agreement, as
evidenced by the registration of such Delivery Certificate in the Delivery
Register in accordance with Section 4.01 of the Warrant Agreement), deliver such
Class A Certificates to the exercising Call Holder and the proceeds of the Class
A Call Price shall be distributed pro rata among such Class A Certificateholders
on the Call Date in accordance with the provisions of the Warrant Agreement. In
connection with any exercise of the Call Rights to purchase Class B
Certificates, if the amount to be purchased exceeds the amount of Trust
Certificates of such Class held by the Call Holder and deposited with the Escrow
Agent, the Trustee shall select by lot (or by such other reasonable procedure as
may be established by the Trustee) an aggregate notional principal amount of the
outstanding Class B Certificates to be surrendered by the Class B
Certificateholders thereof to the Trustee upon any such exercise (other than
Class B Trust Certificates held by any Persons to whom a Delivery Certificate
was delivered in accordance with Section 2.02(d) of the Warrant Agreement, as
evidenced by the registration of such Delivery Certificate in the Delivery
Register in accordance with Section 4.01 of the Warrant Agreement), deliver such
Class B Certificates to the exercising Call Holder and the proceeds of the Class
B Call Price shall be distributed pro rata among such Certificateholders on the
Call Date in accordance with the provisions of the Warrant Agreement. Upon
distribution of the applicable Call Price, the Trust Certificates called
pursuant to the exercise of Call Rights shall be deemed to have been surrendered
and such Trust Certificates shall be transferred to the Call Holder; provided
that the right of a Certificateholder to receive the Call Price will not be
affected by any such deemed surrender.
(e) The rights of the Certificateholders under the Trust Agreement and
the Certificates are limited by the terms, provisions and conditions of the
Trust Agreement and the Warrant Agreement with respect to the exercise of the
applicable Call Rights by the Call Holder. The Certificateholders, by their
acceptance of Certificates, covenant and agree to tender any and all
Certificates to the Warrant Agent upon the Call Holder's exercise of Call Rights
and deposit of the applicable Call Price with the Escrow Agent for such
Certificates in accordance with the applicable procedures in the Warrant
Agreement.
(f) Upon receipt of a notice of a tender offer for the Underlying
Securities, the Trustee shall deliver notice of the tender offer to the Warrant
Agent and holders of Delivery Certificates (as defined in Section 2.02(d) of the
Warrant Agreement) within two Business Days after receipt of notice from the
Tender Offeror (as defined in the Warrant Agreement). Within two Business Days
of the expiration of the period for validly delivering tender offer exercise
notices pursuant to Section 2.02(i)(i) of the Warrant Agreement, the Trustee
shall, after giving effect to the exercise of Call Rights with respect to Trust
Certificates already held by the Call Holder, as set forth in the Warrant
Agreement, (A) select by lot (or by such other reasonable procedure as may be
established by the Trustee), in the case of Class A Certificates, a stated
amount of Class A Certificates equal to the aggregate stated amount of Class A
Certificates not subject to Delivery Certificates then outstanding multiplied by
the aggregate principal amount of Class A Call Rights being exercised divided by
the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Class A Call Rights and, in
the case of Class B Certificates an aggregate notional
21
principal amount of Class B Certificates equal to the aggregate notional
principal amount of Class B Certificates not subject to Delivery Certificates
then outstanding multiplied by the aggregate notional principal amount of Class
B Call Rights being exercised divided by the aggregate notional principal amount
of the outstanding Class B Call Rights and (B) notify the Certificateholders of
the selected Certificates that, subject to Section 2.02(i) of the Warrant
Agreement, such Certificates will be purchased on the Call Date. Upon the
Trustee's receipt of the tender offer proceeds, the applicable Call Price will
be distributed pursuant to Section 2.02(e) and Section 2.02(i)(vi) of the
Warrant Agreement pro rata to the Certificateholders whose Certificates have
been purchased and the tender offer proceeds will be distributed by the Trustee
pro rata to the exercising Call Holders pursuant to Section 2.02(i) of the
Warrant Agreement. Upon distribution of the applicable Call Price and tender
offer proceeds, the Trust Certificates called pursuant to the exercise of Call
Rights shall be deemed to have been surrendered for cancellation by the Trustee
and the aggregate stated amount of the outstanding Trust Certificates shall be
reduced by the aggregate stated amount of such Trust Certificates; provided that
the right of a Certificateholder to receive the Call Price will not be affected
by any such deemed surrender.
Section 15. Amendments. Notwithstanding anything in the Trust
Agreement to the contrary, in addition to the other restrictions on modification
and amendment contained herein, the Trustee shall not enter into any amendment
or modification of the Trust Agreement that would adversely affect in any
material respect the interests of the Certificateholders or the Call Holders
without the consent of 100% of such Certificateholders or Call Holders, as the
case may be; provided, however, that no such amendment or modification will be
permitted if the Trustee has been advised by the Depositor that such amendment
or modification would alter the status of the Trust as a "grantor trust" for
federal income tax purposes. Further, no amendment shall be permitted pursuant
to paragraphs (vi), (vii) and (x) of Section 11.01(a) of the Standard Terms
without prior written confirmation by each Rating Agency that such amendment
will not result in a downgrading or withdrawal of its rating of the
Certificates. The Trustee may consult with counsel and shall be entitled to rely
upon an Opinion of Counsel for purposes of determining compliance with the
provisions of this Section 15.
Section 16. 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,
the Underlying Securities trustee 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 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 after weighing the votes of the Class A Certificateholders
and the
22
Class B Certificateholders in accordance with the Allocation Ratio; 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, or (ii) that 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 that with the
passage of time would become an event of default under the Underlying Securities
and with the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders and 100% of the Call
Holders, or (iii) except as provided in the following paragraph, that would
result in the exchange or substitution of any of the outstanding Underlying
Securities pursuant to a plan 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 100% of the Certificateholders
and 100% of the Call Holders. The Trustee shall have no liability for any
failure to act resulting from Certificateholders' or Call Holders' late return
of, or failure to return, directions requested by the Trustee from the
Certificateholders and Call Holders.
If 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 the Certificateholders, the Call Holders and the Rating
Agencies of such offer promptly. Subject to Sections 7(b) and 14 in connection
with a tender offer and the exercise of Call Rights or Optional Exchange rights,
the Trustee must reject any such offer unless the Trustee is directed by the
affirmative vote of 100% of the Certificateholders and 100% of the Call Holders
to accept such offer, the Trustee has received the tax opinion described above
and if the Trustee is so directed, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Rating
Agencies of such direction accompanied by evidence of the affirmative vote of
such Certificateholders and Call Holders.
If an event of default under the Underlying Securities Indenture
occurs and is continuing, and if directed by 100% of the Certificateholders, the
Trustee shall vote the Underlying Securities in favor of directing, or take such
other action as may be appropriate to direct, the Underlying Securities trustee
to declare the unpaid principal amount of the Underlying Securities and any
accrued and unpaid interest thereon to be due and payable.
23

on behalf of the Trust, to enter into a Warrant Agreement and any related
Warrant Certificates (as defined in the Warrant Agreement) evidencing the Call
Rights and to make representations contained therein on behalf of the Trust. At

as may be required to evidence any transfer of any or all of the rights,
interests or obligations under the Warrant Agreement and any related Warrant
Certificates.
