9.01(d), 9.01(f) and 9.01(h) shall
not apply. The Trust Wind Events
specified in Sections 9.01(b)
(Security Default), 9.01(e) (Early
Termination Date designated due to
"illegality" or "tax event" under
the Swap Agreement), 9.01(g)
(Disqualified Securities), 9.01(i)
(Excess Expense Event) shall apply.
Pursuant to Section 9.01(j), the
following events also shall
constitute Trust Wind-Up Events: (i)
redemption by the Security Issuer of
all Securities held by the Trust and
(ii) exercise of the call rights
under the Swap Agreement as to all
Securities held by the Trust.
If (i) cash settlement applies under
the Swap Agreement, (ii) a Trust
Wind-Up Event has occurred in
connection with the exercise of any
Option under the Swap Agreement and
(iii) the Selling Agent cannot
obtain a bid for the Securities in
excess of 100% of the aggregate Unit
Principal Balance of the Class A
Units and accrued interest on the
Securities, then the Securities will
not be sold, the Swap Counterparty's
exercise of the call option will be
rescinded (and the Swap Counterparty
shall be entitled to exercise such
options in the future) and any
related Trust Wind-Up Event will be
deemed not to have occurred.
Termination: If a Trust Wind-Up Event occurs, any
Securities held by the Trust will be
liquidated (by delivery to the
Security Issuer in the event of a
redemption or pursuant to the terms
of the Swap Agreement in the event
of an exercise of the Swap
Agreement).
If the related Trust Wind-Up Event
occurs due to a redemption of the
Securities by the Security Issuer or
exercise of the call rights under
the Swap Agreement as to all
Securities held by the Trust, (i)
amounts received as accrued interest
on the Securities will be applied to
the Class A Units and the Class B
Units pro rata in proportion to the
amount of accrued interest
outstanding on each such Class, (ii)
amounts received as principal or par
on the Securities will be applied to
the Unit Principal Balance of the
Class A Units up to 100% of the Unit
Principal Balance of each Class A
Unit, and (iii) if prior to July 30,
2007, any amount received as a
make-whole premium or redemption
premium on the Securities will be
applied to the Class A Units up to
$2.50 per Class A Unit. Remaining
accrued interest will be applied to
the Expense Administrator's fee. Any
remaining amounts (other than the
Class B Unit Payment Obligation of
the Swap Counterparty) will be paid
to the Swap Counterparty as a Swap
Termination Payment under the Swap
Agreement. Amounts in respect of the
Class B Unit Payment Obligation of
the Swap Counterparty (as described
in Schedule III) shall be paid to
the Class B Units.
If the Trust is terminated for any
other reason, the proceeds of
liquidation will be applied to
redeem the Class A Units and the
Class B Units. The Class A Units
will have a claim on the proceeds of
the liquidation equal to their
aggregate Unit Principal Balance
plus accrued interest. The Class B
Units will have a claim on the
proceeds of liquidation equal to the
value calculated (x) by discounting
each remaining scheduled payment at
a rate of 7.750% (on the basis of a
360 day consisting of twelve 30 day
months) and adding (y) accrued
interest. If the proceeds of the
liquidation is less than the
combined claim amounts of the Class
A Units and the Class B Units, the
proceeds will be distributed in
proportion to the claim amounts of
the Class A Units and the Class B
Units in full satisfaction of the
claims of the Units. If the proceeds
of liquidation exceed the claims of
the Class A Units and the Class B
Units, the excess will be paid to
the Swap Counterparty as a Swap
Termination Payment under the Swap
Agreement.
Self-Tenders by Security Issuer: The Trust will not participate in
any self-tender by the Security
Issuer for the Securities and the
Trustee will not accept any
instructions to the contrary from
the Unitholders.
Terms of Retained Interest: The Depositor retains the right to
receive any and all interest that
accrues on the Securities prior to
the Closing Date. The Depositor will
receive such accrued interest on the
first Distribution Date for the
Units and such amount shall be paid
from the interest payment made with
respect to the Securities on the
first Distribution Date.
The amount of the Retained Interest
is $552,687.
If a Security Default occurs on or
prior to the first Distribution Date
and the Depositor does not receive
such Retained Interest amount in
connection with such Distribution
Date, the Depositor will have a
claim for such Retained Interest,
and will share pro rata with holders
of the Units to the extent of such
claim in the proceeds from the
recovery on the Securities.
Call Option Terms: Not Applicable.
Security Default: The definition of Security Default
in the Standard Terms shall not
apply. A "Security Default" shall
mean one of the following events:
(i) the acceleration of the
outstanding Securities under the
terms of the Securities and/or the
applicable Security Agreement and
failure to pay the accelerated
amount on the acceleration date;
(ii) the failure of the Security
Issuer (or the Security Guarantor on
its behalf or under the Security
Guaranty) to pay an installment of
principal of, or any amount of
interest due on, the Securities
after the due date thereof and after
the expiration of any applicable
grace period; or (iii) the
occurrence of any of the events of
default under such Securities and/or
Security Agreement relating to the
insolvency or bankruptcy of the
Security Issuer or the Security
Guarantor.
Sale of Securities: If the Trust must sell the
Securities it holds, the Trust will
sell the Securities through the
Selling Agent in accordance with
Section 9.03(b) and the following
terms. The Selling Agent must
solicit at least three bids for all
of the Securities held by the Trust.
The Selling Agent must solicit at
least three of such bids from
registered broker-dealers of
national reputation, but additional
bids may be solicited from one or
more financial institutions or other
counterparties with credit
worthiness acceptable to the Selling
Agent in its discretion. The Selling
Agent will, on behalf of the Trust,
sell the Securities at the highest
bid price received. The Selling
Agent may not bid for the
Securities.
If cash settlement applies and if
the Swap Counterparty exercises any
of its Options other than in
connection with a redemption of the
Securities by the Security Issuer, a
number of Securities corresponding
to the number of Options exercised
by the Swap Counterparty will be
sold by the Selling Agent on behalf
of the Trust.
If the Selling Agent cannot obtain a
bid for the Securities in excess of
100% of the aggregate Unit Principal
Balance of the Class A Units to be
redeemed and accrued interest on the
Securities to be sold, then the
Securities will not be sold, the
Swap Counterparty's exercise will be
rescinded (and the Swap Counterparty
shall be entitled to exercise such
Option(s) in the future) and any
related Trust Wind-Up Event will be
deemed not to have occurred.
Additional Issuance of Units: Upon no less than 5 days' notice to
the Trustee, the Depositor may
deposit additional Securities at any
time in exchange for additional
Units in a minimum aggregate amount
of $250,000 (with respect to the
Class A Units issued ) and, if in
excess of such amount, in a $25
integral multiple in excess thereof
(with respect to the Class A Units
issued). The principal amount of
Securities deposited must be in the
same ratio to the Unit Principal
Balance (and Notional Amount with
respect to the Class B Units) of the
Units received for such deposit as
the ratio of the aggregate principal
amount of the Securities deposited
on the Closing Date to the aggregate
Unit Principal Balance (and
aggregate Notional Amount with
respect to the Class B Units) on the
Closing Date. The Depositor must
either arrange for the Swap
Counterparty and the Trust to
increase proportionally the notional
amount under the Swap Agreement or
arrange for an additional Swap
Agreement, with a notional amount
equal to the principal amount of the
additional Securities deposited, to
be entered into between the Trust
and an additional Swap Counterparty
(or a combination of an additional
Swap Agreement and a notional
balance increase of the existing
Swap Agreement(s), with the combined
effect of such proportional increase
in the notional amount of the Swap
Agreements). The Depositor must also
arrange the issuance of Class B
Units with a Notional Amount equal
to the Unit Principal Balance being
issued in connection with an
additional issuance. Any accrued
interest will be reflected in the
price of additional Units and the
Securities. The Rating Agency
Condition must be satisfied in
connection with any such additional
issuance.

Notwithstanding any provision of the
Standard Terms to the contrary, any

conducted by and through the Selling
Agent and not the Trustee.
