All Applicable Certificates issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Applicable Certificates shall be valid obligations of the Applicable Trust, evidencing the same interest therein, and entitled to the same benefits under the Agreement, as the Applicable Certificates surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.
 
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Applicable Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office or such other office or agency with the form of transfer notice thereon duly completed and executed, and otherwise complying with the terms of the Agreement, including providing evidence of compliance with any restrictions on transfer, in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Registrar, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Applicable Certificates of like series, in authorized denominations of a like aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest.  No such transfer shall be effected until, and such transferee shall succeed to the rights of an Applicable Certificateholder only upon, final acceptance and registration of the transfer by the Registrar in the Register.  Prior to the registration of any transfer by an Applicable Certificateholder as provided herein, the Trustee shall treat the person in whose name the Applicable Certificate is

To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges in accordance with the terms, conditions and restrictions hereof, the Trustee shall execute and authenticate Applicable Certificates at the Registrar’s request.  No service charge shall be made to an Applicable Certificateholder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Applicable Certificates, but the Trustee shall require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Applicable Certificates.  All Applicable Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled and subsequently destroyed by the Trustee.

(iv)         Agree that no registration of the transfer of an Applicable Certificate will be made unless the transferee completes and submits to the Trustee the form included on the reverse of the Applicable Certificate in which it states that it is purchasing the Applicable Certificate for its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion and that it and any such account is a QIB;
 
(v)           Understand that the Applicable Certificates will bear a legend substantially to the effect of the Restrictive Legend;
 
(vi)          Acknowledge that the Company, the Trustee, the Underwriters and others will rely on the truth and accuracy of the foregoing acknowledgments, representations, warranties and agreements and agree that, if any of the acknowledgments, representations, warranties and agreements deemed to have been made by its purchase of the Applicable Certificates is no longer accurate, it shall promptly notify the Company, the Trustee and the Underwriters.  If it is acquiring any Applicable Certificates as a fiduciary or agent of one or more investor accounts, it represents that it has sole investment discretion with respect to each such investor account and that it has full power to make the foregoing acknowledgments, representations and agreements on behalf of each such investor account;
 
(vii)         Acknowledge that the foregoing restrictions apply to holders of beneficial interests in the Applicable Certificates as well as to registered holders of Applicable Certificates; and
 
(viii)        Acknowledge that the Trustee will not be required to accept for registration of transfer any Applicable Certificate unless evidence satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee that the restrictions on transfer set forth herein have been complied with is submitted to them.
