funds, plus all interest, dividends and other distributions and payments

to any such investment other than in accordance with paragraph 4 of the
Terms and Conditions.
3. Distribution of Escrow Property
Escrow Agent is directed to hold and distribute the Escrow Property in the
following manner:

defined in the Depositor's Certificate of Designations of its Series
F Preferred Stock ("Certificate of Designations") or Shareholder
Approval (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) and (2) a
Buyer has elected to redeem up to that amount of Debentures held by
such holder of which the Outstanding Principal Amount (as defined in
the Debentures) is equal to (i) the Original Escrow Amount multiplied
by (ii) a fraction (x) the numerator of which is the aggregate
Outstanding Principal Amount of the Debentures held by such holder
and (y) the denominator of which is equal to the aggregate
Outstanding Principal Amount of all of the Debentures (the
"Redemption") pursuant to Section 11(g) of the Debentures, the Buyer
electing such Redemption will deliver to the Escrow Agent a written
notice in the form of Exhibit B signed by the Buyer (a "Buyer
Distribution Notice") setting forth the amount to be distributed to
the Buyer determined as provided above and directing the distribution
of all or a portion of its Pro-Rata Allocation together with all
interest or fees earned thereon. Within five Business Days after
receipt of a Buyer Distribution Notice, the Escrow Agent shall pay to
the Buyer requesting such distribution, the amount of the Escrow
Property specified in such Buyer Distribution Notice. The Escrow
Agent shall, to the extent the Depositor has not certified to the
Escrow Agent and Buyers that it has otherwise satisfied its
obligation to pay accrued interest (or, in the case of Crescent,
accrued fees) on the Debentures in accordance with their terms (the
interest or, in the case of Crescent, fees, earned pursuant to the
Debentures is collectively referred to herein as the "Debenture
Escrow Interest"), also distribute to such Buyer the Buyer's Pro-Rata
Allocation of such interest or fees in partial satisfaction of
accrued interest (or, in the case of Crescent, accrued fees) owed
under the Debentures.

3

distributed to the Depositor.
(iii) The Escrow Agent will not distribute any of the Escrow
Property or interest payments (or, in the case of Crescent, fee
payments) thereon until it receives a Buyer Distribution Notice or
Depositor Distribution Notice.

Conditions, the Escrow Agent shall give effect to each Buyer
Distribution Notice regardless of any instruction to the contrary
from Depositor.
(b) Liquidation of Investments. If necessary to satisfy any
distributions under this Agreement, the Escrow Agent may sell or liquidate,
in its reasonable discretion, any one or more investments prior to maturity
and the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to the Depositor or to the Buyers
for any loss or penalties resulting from or relating to such sale or
liquidation, however the persons entitled to such distribution hereunder
may extend any payment period in paragraph (a) above in order to avoid any
loss of income or principal from a premature liquidation of an escrow
