13.5 Other. Notwithstanding any provision of this Service Module to the contrary, settlement and payment for Foreign Portfolio Securities received for the account of a BTC Recipient and delivery of Foreign Portfolio Securities maintained for the account of a BTC Recipient may be effected in accordance with the customary established securities trading or securities processing practices and procedures in the jurisdiction or market in which the transaction occurs, including, without limitation, delivering securities to the purchaser thereof or to a dealer therefor (or an agent for such purchaser or dealer) against a receipt with the expectation of receiving later payment for such securities from such purchaser or dealer.

Each BTC Recipient agrees that State Street shall have a continuing lien and security interest to the extent of any overdraft or indebtedness, in and to any property at any time held by it for a Portfolio’s benefit or in which the Portfolio has an interest and which is then in State Street’s possession or control (or in the possession or control of any third party acting on State Street’s behalf).
