4. | Margin Maintenance |
(a) | If at any time the aggregate Market Value of all Purchased Securities subject to all Transactions in which a particular party hereto is acting as Buyer is less than the aggregate Buyer’s Margin Amount for all such Transactions (a “Margin Deficit”), then Buyer may by notice to Seller require Seller in such Transactions, at Seller’s option, to transfer to Buyer cash or additional Securities reasonably acceptable to Buyer (“Additional Purchased Securities”), so that the cash and aggregate Market Value of the Purchased Securities, including any such Additional Purchased Securities, will thereupon equal or exceed such aggregate Buyer’s Margin Amount (decreased by the amount of any Margin Deficit as of such date arising from any Transactions in which such Buyer is acting as Seller). | ||
(b) | If at any time the aggregate Market Value of all Purchased Securities subject to all Transactions in which a particular party hereto is acting as Seller exceeds the aggregate Seller’s Margin Amount for all such Transactions at such time (a “Margin Excess”), then Seller may by notice to Buyer require Buyer in such Transactions, at Buyer’s option, to transfer cash or Purchased Securities to Seller, so that the aggregate Market Value of the Purchased Securities, after deduction of any such cash or any Purchased Securities so transferred, will thereupon not exceed such aggregate Seller’s Margin Amount (increased by the amount of any Margin Excess as of such date arising from any Transactions in which such Seller is acting as Buyer). | ||
(c) | If any notice is given by Buyer or Seller under subparagraph (a) or (b) of this Paragraph at or before the Margin Notice Deadline on any business day, the party receiving such notice shall transfer cash or Additional Purchased Securities as provided in such subparagraph no later than the close of business in the relevant market on such day. If any such notice is given after the Margin Notice Deadline, the party receiving such notice shall transfer such cash or Securities no later than the close of business in the relevant market on the next business day following such notice. |
4
(d) | Any cash transferred pursuant to this Paragraph shall be attributed to such Transactions as shall be agreed upon by Buyer and Seller. | ||
(e) | Seller and Buyer may agree, with respect to any or all Transactions hereunder, that the respective rights of Buyer or Seller (or both) under subparagraphs (a) and (b) of this Paragraph may be exercised only where a Margin Deficit or Margin Excess, as the case may be, exceeds a specified dollar amount or a specified percentage of the Repurchase Prices for such Transactions (which amount or percentage shall be agreed to by Buyer and Seller prior to entering into any such Transactions). | ||
(f) | Seller and Buyer may agree, with respect to any or all Transactions hereunder, that the respective rights of Buyer and Seller under subparagraphs (a) and (b) of this Paragraph to require the elimination of a Margin Deficit or a Margin Excess, as the case may be, may be exercised whenever such a Margin Deficit or Margin Excess exists with respect to any single Transaction hereunder (calculated without regard to any other Transaction outstanding under this Agreement). |
5. | Income Payments | |
Seller shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to all Income paid or distributed on or in respect of the Securities that is not otherwise received by Seller, to the full extent it would be so entitled if the Securities had not been sold to Buyer. Buyer shall, as the parties may agree with respect to any Transaction (or, in the absence of any such agreement, as Buyer shall reasonably determine in its discretion), on the date such Income is paid or distributed either (i) transfer to or credit to the account of Seller such Income with respect to any Purchased Securities subject to such Transaction or (ii) with respect to Income paid in cash, apply the Income payment or payments to reduce the amount, if any, to be transferred to Buyer by Seller upon termination of such Transaction. Buyer shall not be obligated to take any action pursuant to the preceding sentence (A) to the extent that such action would result in the creation of a Margin Deficit, unless prior thereto or simultaneously therewith Seller transfers to Buyer cash or Additional Purchased Securities sufficient to eliminate such Margin Deficit, or (B) if an Event of Default with respect to Seller has occurred and is then continuing at the time such Income is paid or distributed. |
6. Security Interest
Although the parties intend that all Transactions hereunder be sales and purchases and not
loans, in the event any such Transactions are deemed to be loans, Seller shall be deemed to have
pledged to Buyer as security for the performance by Seller of its obligations under each such
Transaction, and shall be deemed to have granted to Buyer a security interest in, all of the
Purchased Securities with respect to all Transactions hereunder and all Income thereon and other
proceeds thereof.
5
7. Payment and Transfer
Unless otherwise mutually agreed, all transfers of funds hereunder shall be in immediately
available funds. All Securities transferred by one party hereto to the other party (i) shall be
in suitable form for transfer or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer
or assignment in blank and such other documentation as the party receiving possession may
reasonably request, (ii) shall be transferred on the book-entry system of a Federal Reserve
Bank, or (iii) shall be transferred by any other method mutually acceptable to Seller and Buyer.
8. Segregation of Purchased Securities
To the extent required by applicable law, all Purchased Securities in the possession of Seller
shall be segregated from other securities in its possession and shall be identified as subject
to this Agreement. Segregation may be accomplished by appropriate identification on the books
and records of the holder, including a financial or securities intermediary or a clearing
corporation. All of Seller’s interest in the Purchased Securities shall pass to Buyer on the
Purchase Date and, unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and Seller, nothing in this Agreement shall
preclude Buyer from engaging in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Securities or
otherwise selling, transferring, pledging or hypothecating the Purchased Securities, but no such
transaction shall relieve Buyer of its obligations to transfer Purchased Securities to Seller
pursuant to Paragraph 3, 4 or 11 hereof, or of Buyer’s obligation to credit or pay Income to, or
apply Income to the obligations of, Seller pursuant to Paragraph 5 hereof.
Required Disclosure for Transactions in Which the Seller Retains Custody of the
Purchased Securities
Seller is not permitted to substitute other securities for those subject to this
Agreement and therefore must keep Buyer’s securities segregated at all times, unless
in this Agreement Buyer grants Seller the right to substitute other securities. If
Buyer grants the right to substitute, this means that Buyer’s securities will likely
be commingled with Seller’s own securities during the trading day. Buyer is advised
that, during any trading day that Buyer’s securities are commingled with Seller’s
securities, they [will] * [may] ** be subject to liens granted by Seller to [its
clearing bank] * [third parties] ** and may be used by Seller for deliveries on
other securities transactions. Whenever the securities are commingled, Seller’s
ability to resegregate substitute securities for Buyer will be subject to Seller’s
ability to satisfy [the clearing] * [any] ** lien or to obtain substitute
securities.
*
Language to be used under 17 C.F.R. 13403.4(e) if Seller is a government
securities broker or dealer other than a financial institution.
** Language to be used under 17 C.F.R. 13403.5(d) if Seller is a financial
institution.
6
9. | Substitution |
(a) | Seller may, subject to agreement with and acceptance by Buyer, substitute other Securities for any Purchased Securities. Such substitution shall be made by transfer to Buyer of such other Securities and transfer to Seller of such Purchased Securities. After substitution, the substituted Securities shall be deemed to be Purchased Securities. | ||
(b) | In Transactions in which Seller retains custody of Purchased Securities, the parties expressly agree that Buyer shall be deemed, for purposes of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph, to have agreed to and accepted in this Agreement substitution by Seller of other Securities for Purchased Securities; provided, however, that such other Securities shall have a Market Value at least equal to the Market Value of the Purchased Securities for which they are substituted. |
10. | Representations | |
Each of Buyer and Seller represents and warrants to the other that (i) it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Agreement, to enter into Transactions contemplated hereunder and to perform its obligations hereunder and has taken all necessary action to authorize such execution, delivery and performance, (ii) it will engage in such Transactions as principal (or, if agreed in writing, in the form of an annex hereto or otherwise, in advance of any Transaction by the other party hereto, as agent for a disclosed principal), (iii) the person signing this Agreement on its behalf is duly authorized to do so on its behalf (or on behalf of any such disclosed principal), (iv) it has obtained all authorizations of any governmental body required in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions hereunder and such authorizations are in full force and effect and (v) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Transactions hereunder will not violate any law, ordinance, charter, bylaw or rule applicable to it or any agreement by which it is bound or by which any of its assets are affected. On the Purchase Date for any Transaction Buyer and Seller shall each be deemed to repeat all the foregoing representations made by it. | ||
11. | Events of Default | |
In the event that (i) Seller fails to transfer or Buyer fails to purchase Purchased Securities upon the applicable Purchase Date, (ii) Seller fails to repurchase or Buyer fails to transfer Purchased Securities upon the applicable Repurchase Date, (iii) Seller or Buyer fails to comply with Paragraph 4 hereof, (iv) Buyer fails, after one business day’s notice, to comply with Paragraph 5 hereof, (v) an Act of Insolvency occurs with respect to Seller or Buyer, (vi) any representation made by Seller or Buyer shall have been incorrect or untrue in any material respect when made or repeated or deemed to have been made or repeated, or (vii) Seller or Buyer shall admit to the other its inability to, or its intention not to, perform any of its obligations hereunder (each an “Event of Default”): |
(a) | The nondefaulting party may, at its option (which option shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency), declare an Event of Default to have occurred hereunder and, upon the exercise or deemed exercise of such option, the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder shall, if it has not already |
7
occurred, be deemed immediately to occur (except that, in the event that the Purchase Date for any Transaction has not yet occurred as of the date of such exercise or deemed exercise, such Transaction shall be deemed immediately canceled). The nondefaulting party shall (except upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency) give notice to the defaulting party of the exercise of such option as promptly as practicable. |
(b) | In all Transactions in which the defaulting party is acting as Seller, if the nondefaulting party exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph, (i) the defaulting party’s obligations in such Transactions to repurchase all Purchased Securities, at the Repurchase Price therefor on the Repurchase Date determined in accordance with subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph, shall thereupon become immediately due and payable, (ii) all Income paid after such exercise or deemed exercise shall be retained by the nondefaulting party and applied to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by the defaulting party hereunder, and (iii) the defaulting party shall immediately deliver to the nondefaulting party any Purchased Securities subject to such Transactions then in the defaulting party’s possession or control. | ||
(c) | In all Transactions in which the defaulting party is acting as Buyer, upon tender by the nondefaulting party of payment of the aggregate Repurchase Prices for all such Transactions, all right, title and interest in and entitlement to all Purchased Securities subject to such Transactions shall be deemed transferred to the nondefaulting party, and the defaulting party shall deliver all such Purchased Securities to the nondefaulting party. | ||
(d) | If the nondefaulting party exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph, the nondefaulting party, without prior notice to the defaulting party, may: |
(i) | as to Transactions in which the defaulting party is acting as Seller, (A) immediately sell, in a recognized market (or otherwise in a commercially reasonable manner) at such price or prices as the nondefaulting party may reasonably deem satisfactory, any or all Purchased Securities subject to such Transactions and apply the proceeds thereof to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by the defaulting party hereunder or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Securities, to give the defaulting party credit for such Purchased Securities in an amount equal to the price therefor on such date, obtained from a generally recognized source or the most recent closing bid quotation from such a source, against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by the defaulting party hereunder; and | ||
(ii) | as to Transactions in which the defaulting party is acting as Buyer, (A) immediately purchase, in a recognized market (or otherwise in a commercially reasonable manner) at such price or prices as the nondefaulting party may reasonably deem satisfactory, securities (“Replacement Securities”) of the same class and amount as any Purchased Securities that are not delivered by the defaulting party to the nondefaulting party as required hereunder or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of purchasing Replacement Securities, to be deemed to have purchased Replacement Securities at the price therefor on such |
8
date, obtained from a generally recognized source or the most recent closing offer quotation from such a source. |
Unless otherwise provided in Annex I, the parties acknowledge and agree that (1) the Securities subject to any Transaction hereunder are instruments traded in a recognized market, (2) in the absence of a generally recognized source for prices or bid or offer quotations for any Security, the nondefaulting party may establish the source therefor in its sole discretion and (3) all prices, bids and offers shall be determined together with accrued Income (except to the extent contrary to market practice with respect to the relevant Securities). |
(e) | As to Transactions in which the defaulting party is acting as Buyer, the defaulting party shall be liable to the nondefaulting party for any excess of the price paid (or deemed paid) by the nondefaulting party for Replacement Securities over the Repurchase Price for the Purchased Securities replaced thereby and for any amounts payable by the defaulting party under Paragraph 5 hereof or otherwise hereunder. | ||
(f) | For purposes of this Paragraph 11, the Repurchase Price for each Transaction hereunder in respect of which the defaulting party is acting as Buyer shall not increase above the amount of such Repurchase Price for such Transaction determined as of the date of the exercise or deemed exercise by the nondefaulting party of the option referred to in subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph. | ||
(g) | The defaulting party shall be liable to the nondefaulting party for (i) the amount of all reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by the nondefaulting party in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, (ii) damages in an amount equal to the cost (including all fees, expenses and commissions) of entering into replacement transactions and entering into or terminating hedge transactions in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, and (iii) any other loss, damage, cost or expense directly arising or resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default in respect of a Transaction. | ||
(h) | To the extent permitted by applicable law, the defaulting party shall be liable to the nondefaulting party for interest on any amounts owing by the defaulting party hereunder, from the date the defaulting party becomes liable for such amounts hereunder until such amounts are (i) paid in full by the defaulting party or (ii) satisfied in full by the exercise of the nondefaulting party’s rights hereunder. Interest on any sum payable by the defaulting party to the nondefaulting party under this Paragraph 11(h) shall be at a rate equal to the greater of the Pricing Rate for the relevant Transaction or the Prime Rate. | ||
(i) | The nondefaulting party shall have, in addition to its rights hereunder, any rights otherwise available to it under any other agreement or applicable law. |
12. | Single Agreement | |
Buyer and Seller acknowledge that, and have entered hereinto and will enter into each Transaction hereunder in consideration of and in reliance upon the fact that, all Transactions hereunder constitute a single business and contractual relationship and have been made in consideration of each other. Accordingly, each of Buyer and Seller agrees (i) to perform all of its obligations in respect of each Transaction hereunder, and that a default in the performance |
9
of any such obligations shall constitute a default by it in respect of all Transactions hereunder, (ii) that each of them shall be entitled to set off claims and apply property held by them in respect of any Transaction against obligations owing to them in respect of any other Transactions hereunder and (iii) that payments, deliveries and other transfers made by either of them in respect of any Transaction shall be deemed to have been made in consideration of payments, deliveries and other transfers in respect of any other Transactions hereunder, and the obligations to make any such payments, deliveries and other transfers may be applied against each other and netted. | ||
13. | Notices and Other Communications | |
Any and all notices, statements, demands or other communications hereunder may be given by a party to the other by mail, facsimile, telegraph, messenger or otherwise to the address specified in Annex II hereto, or so sent to such party at any other place specified in a notice of change of address hereafter received by the other. All notices, demands and requests hereunder may be made orally, to be confirmed promptly in writing, or by other communication as specified in the preceding sentence. | ||
14. | Entire Agreement; Severability | |
This Agreement shall supersede any existing agreements between the parties containing general terms and conditions for repurchase transactions. Each provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement. | ||
15. | Non-assignability; Termination |
(a) | The rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement and under any Transaction shall not be assigned by either party without the prior written consent of the other party, and any such assignment without the prior written consent of the other party shall be null and void. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement and any Transactions shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns. This Agreement may be terminated by either party upon giving written notice to the other, except that this Agreement shall, notwithstanding such notice, remain applicable to any Transactions then outstanding. | ||
(b) | Subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 15 shall not preclude a party from assigning, charging or otherwise dealing with all or any part of its interest in any sum payable to it under Paragraph 11 hereof. |
10
16. | Governing Law | |
This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof. | ||
17. | No Waivers, Etc. | |
No express or implied waiver of any Event of Default by either party shall constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default and no exercise of any remedy hereunder by any party shall constitute a waiver of its right to exercise any other remedy hereunder. No modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and no consent by any party to a departure herefrom shall be effective unless and until such shall be in writing and duly executed by both of the parties hereto. Without limitation on any of the foregoing, the failure to give a notice pursuant to Paragraph 4(a) or 4(b) hereof will not constitute a waiver of any right to do so at a later date. | ||
18. | Use of Employee Plan Assets |
(a) | If assets of an employee benefit plan subject to any provision of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) are intended to be used by either party hereto (the “Plan Party”) in a Transaction, the Plan Party shall so notify the other party prior to the Transaction. The Plan Party shall represent in writing to the other party that the Transaction does not constitute a prohibited transaction under ERISA or is otherwise exempt therefrom, and the other party may proceed in reliance thereon but shall not be required so to proceed. | ||
(b) | Subject to the last sentence of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph, any such Transaction shall proceed only if Seller furnishes or has furnished to Buyer its most recent available audited statement of its financial condition and its most recent subsequent unaudited statement of its financial condition. | ||
(c) | By entering into a Transaction pursuant to this Paragraph, Seller shall be deemed (i) to represent to Buyer that since the date of Seller’s latest such financial statements, there has been no material adverse change in Seller’s financial condition which Seller has not disclosed to Buyer, and (ii) to agree to provide Buyer with future audited and unaudited statements of its financial condition as they are issued, so long as it is a Seller in any outstanding Transaction involving a Plan Party. |
19. | Intent |
(a) | The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (except insofar as the type of Securities subject to such Transaction or the term of such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable), and a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (except insofar |
11
as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable). |
(b) | It is understood that either party’s right to liquidate Securities delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Paragraph 11 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in Sections 555 and 559 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended. | ||
(c) | The parties agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,” as that term is defined in FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable). | ||
(d) | It is understood that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract” as defined in and subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation”, respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as one or both of the parties is not a “financial institution” as that term is defined in FDICIA). |
20. | Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections | |
The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that: |
(a) | in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”), the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 (“SIPA”) do not protect the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; | ||
(b) | in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and | ||
(c) | in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable. |

directors, employees and agents (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, taxes (including

performance of the Agreement and each other document to be delivered by it from time to time in
connection herewith and certifying as to the incumbency of each person authorized to execute on

plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, whether or not subject to Title I of ERISA, (ii)

or deemed declaration of a Default or Event of Default as the attorney-in-fact of the Seller for
the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing
any instruments that Buyer may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which
appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall have the right and power after the declaration or deemed
declaration of any Default or Event of Default to receive, endorse and collect all checks made
payable to the order of the Seller representing any payment on account of the principal of or
interest on any of the Purchased Securities and to give full discharge for the same.
15. REPURCHASE TRANSACTIONS. Buyer may engage in repurchase transactions with the
Purchased Securities or otherwise pledge, transfer, hypothecate or rehypothecate the Purchased

facsimile transmission or telexed, be effective when received at the address for notices for the
party to whom such notice or communications is to be given as set forth in Annex II hereto.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a facsimile transmission shall be deemed to be received when
transmitted so long as the transmitting machine has provided an electronic confirmation of such
transmission. Any notices or communications sent via e-mail shall be followed with a telephone
call on the same day to confirm receipt of such e-mail. Either party may revise any information
relating to it by notice in writing to the other party, which notice shall be effective on the

be effective and enforceable whether or not the Transaction remains outstanding and shall survive
payment of all other obligations owed by the Seller to Buyer.
18. COUNTERPARTS. The Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but
one and the same instrument.
19. REPRESENTATIONS RELATING TO THE PURCHASED SECURITIES. The Seller hereby represents and
warrants, with respect to each Purchased Security, as follows:
(a) Upon payment of the Purchase Price as directed by Seller pursuant hereto, such Purchased
Securities are free and clear of any lien, encumbrance or impediment to transfer (including any
“adverse claim” as defined in Section 8-102(a)(1) of the UCC), and Seller is the recordholder and
beneficial owner of and has good and marketable title to and the right to sell and transfer such
Purchased Securities to Buyer and, upon transfer of such Purchased Securities to Buyer, Buyer shall
be the owner of such Purchased Securities free of any adverse claim. In the event the Transaction
is recharacterized as a secured financing of the Purchased Securities, the provisions of the
Agreement are effective to create in favor of Buyer a valid security interest in all rights, title
and interest of Seller in, to and under the Purchased Securities and Buyer shall have a valid,
perfected first priority security interest in the Purchased Securities;
(b) information set forth in the Confirmation is true and correct in all material respects;
(c) no payment under such Security is currently past its contractual due date or has been past
its contractual due date since its issuance date;
(d) the Seller has received all consents and approvals required by the terms of such Security
to the transfer to Buyer of its interest and rights in such Security; and
(e) Buyer’s purchase of such Security shall not constitute a violation of any restriction on
transfer applicable to such Security pursuant to its terms, or a breach of Section 5 of the
Securities Act.
20. AMENDMENT/WAIVERS.
(a) Amendments. Any amendment, modification or supplement to this Annex I or the
Agreement shall be in writing signed by the parties hereto.
(b) Waiver. Any waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and any consent to any
departure by the Buyer from the terms of any provision of this Agreement, shall be effective only
in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No notice to or demand upon
the Buyer in any instance hereunder shall entitle the Buyer to any other or further notice or
demand in similar or other circumstance.
Annex I-16
(c) Costs and Expenses. The costs and expenses associated with any amendment,
modification or supplement pursuant to this Section 20 shall be borne by the party
requesting such amendment, modification or supplement.
21. TAX TREATMENT. Each Party intends that the Transaction effected by this Agreement be
treated as a sale of the Purchased Securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and the Parties
hereby agree to file all tax returns and otherwise treat the transaction for U.S. federal income
tax purposes consistently therewith. All provisions of the Agreement shall be construed to achieve
the aforementioned treatment for U.S. federal, state, and local income and franchise tax purposes.
None of the parties to this Agreement shall take any contrary position unless required by
applicable law.
22. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION AND WAIVER OF IMMUNITY.
(a) Each Party irrevocably and unconditionally (i) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction
of any United States federal or New York state court sitting in Manhattan, and any appellate court
from any such court, solely for the purpose of any suit, action or proceeding brought to enforce
its obligations under this Agreement or relating in any way to this Agreement or the Transaction
under this Agreement and (ii) waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any defense
of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court and any
right of jurisdiction on account of its place of residence or domicile.
(b) To the extent that either party has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (sovereign or
otherwise) from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from jurisdiction of any court or from set
off or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in
aid of execution or judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) with respect to itself or any of
its property, such party hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim such immunity
in respect of any action brought to enforce its obligations under the Agreement or relating in any
way to this Agreement or the Transaction under this Agreement.
23. CHARACTERIZATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. Each of the Seller and the Buyer hereby
acknowledges and agrees:
(a) that the Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section
101(47) of Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (except insofar as the Purchased Securities subject to
such Transaction, or the term of such Transaction, would render such definition inapplicable), a
“forward contract” as that term is defined in Section 101(25) of the Bankruptcy Code (except
insofar as the Purchased Securities subject to such Transaction would render such definition
inapplicable), a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741(7) of the Bankruptcy
Code, and/or a “master netting agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101(38A) of the
Bankruptcy Code; and
(b) that each assignment, transfer or payment of Purchased Securities or Repurchase Price is a
“margin payment” as that term is defined in Sections 101(38), 741(5) and 761(15) of the Bankruptcy
Code, or a “settlement payment” as that term is defined in Sections 101(51A) and 741(8) of the
Bankruptcy Code.
Annex I-17
Seller and Buyer further intend that Buyer’s right to liquidate, terminate or accelerate the
Purchased Securities delivered to Buyer in connection with the Transaction hereunder, and to
exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 11 hereof, are contractual rights to
liquidate, terminate or accelerate such Transaction as described in Sections 555, 556, 559 and 561
of the Bankruptcy Code.
Each of the Buyer and the Seller hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not challenge such
characterizations of this Agreement, the Transaction hereunder or of any of the payments or actions
referred to above.
24. NO RECOURSE. Except with respect to any indemnification rights the Buyer may have
against the Seller, no recourse shall be had against the Seller with respect to any of the payment
obligations, covenants, agreements, representations or warranties of the Seller contained in this
Agreement, and the Buyer’s recourse shall be limited to its rights in the Purchased Securities.
25. BINDING TERMS. All of the covenants, stipulations, promises and agreements in the
Agreement shall bind the successors and assigns of the parties hereto, whether expressed or not.
26. TERMINATION.
Paragraph 15(a) of the Master Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced
with the following:
The rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement and under the Transaction shall
not be assigned by either party other than to one of its Affiliates without the prior written
consent of the other party, and any such assignment without the prior written consent of the other
party shall be null and void. The Seller shall maintain a register of the ownership of the Buyer’s
rights hereunder, and in the event of any assignment of this agreement by the Buyer, the Buyer
shall present a copy of such assignment to the Seller, and the Seller shall record the name(s) and
address(es) of the assignee(s) in the register. The parties shall be entitled to rely upon the
register as proof of the ownership of the Buyer’s rights hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this
Agreement and the Transaction shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties
and their respective successors and assigns.
