of this material for a fee by writing to the SEC's Public

the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the

information electronically by means of the SEC's website

Although we have no reason to believe the

securities issuer's Exchange Act reports is not reliable,
neither the depositor nor the trustee participated in the
preparation of such documents or made any due diligence
inquiry with respect to the information provided therein.
No investigation with respect to the underlying
securities issuer (including, without limitation, no
investigation as to its financial condition or
creditworthiness) or of the underlying securities has
been made. You should obtain and evaluate the same
information concerning the underlying securities issuer
as you would obtain and evaluate if your investment were
directly in the underlying securities or in other
securities issued by the underlying securities issuer.
There can be no assurance that events affecting the
underlying securities or the underlying securities issuer
have not occurred or have not yet been publicly disclosed
which would affect the accuracy or completeness of the
publicly available documents described above.
