Deposit, Commodities and Securities Accounts On or prior to the date hereof, the Grantor shall cause each bank and other financial institution with an account referred to in Schedule IV hereto to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent (or its designee) a control agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, duly executed by the Grantor and such bank or financial institution, or enter into other arrangements in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, pursuant to which such institution shall irrevocably agree, among other things, that (i) it will comply at any time with the instructions originated by the Collateral Agent (or its designee) to such bank or financial institution directing the disposition of cash, Commodity Contracts, securities, Investment Property and other items from time to time credited to such account, without further consent of the Grantor, (ii) all cash, Commodity Contracts, securities, Investment Property and other items of the Grantor deposited with such institution shall be subject to a perfected, first priority security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent (or its designee), (iii) any right of set off, banker’s Lien or other similar Lien, security interest or encumbrance shall be fully waived as against the Collateral Agent (or its designee) and (iv) upon receipt of written notice from the Collateral Agent during the continuance of an Event of Default, such bank or financial institution shall immediately send to the Collateral Agent (or its designee) by wire transfer (to such account as the Collateral Agent (or its designee) shall specify, or in such other manner as the Collateral Agent shall direct) all such cash, the value of any Commodity Contracts, securities, Investment Property and other items held by it. Without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, the Grantor shall not make or maintain any Deposit Account, Commodity Account or Securities Account except for the accounts set forth in Schedule IV hereto. The provisions of this Section 6(h) shall not apply to Deposit Accounts for which the Collateral Agent is the depositary.
Investment Securities and Commodities (a) Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has good title in all material respects to all securities and commodities owned by it (except those sold under repurchase agreements), free and clear of any Lien, except as set forth in the financial statements included in the Company Reports or to the extent such securities or commodities are pledged in the ordinary course of business to secure obligations of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Such securities and commodities are valued on the books of the Company in accordance with GAAP in all material respects.
Futures Transactions in futures involve the obligation to make, or to take, delivery of the underlying asset of the contract at a future date, or in some cases to settle the Investment Adviser’s position with cash from a Portfolio or elsewhere. Transactions in futures carry a high degree of risk. The “gearing” or “leverage” often obtainable in futures trading means that a small deposit or down payment can lead to large losses as well as gains. It also means that a relatively small market movement can lead to a proportionately much larger movement in the value of the Investment Adviser’s investment, and this can work against the Investment Adviser as well as for the Investment Adviser. Futures transactions have a contingent liability, and the Investment Adviser should be aware of the implications of this, in particular the margining requirements, which are described in paragraph 7.2 below.
Commodity Exchange Act Each of Dealer and Counterparty agrees and represents that it is an “eligible contract participant” as defined in Section 1a(18) of the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the “CEA”), the Agreement and this Transaction are subject to individual negotiation by the parties and have not been executed or traded on a “trading facility” as defined in Section 1a(51) of the CEA.

MSCG and its affiliates may act as an options on foreign exchange forward contract counterparty for the Trading Company. The Trading Manager shall provide the Trading Advisor with copies of brokerage statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trading Advisor may execute trades through floor brokers other than those employed by MS & Co. and its affiliates so long as arrangements (including executed give-up agreements) are made for such floor brokers to “give-up” or transfer the positions to MS & Co. in conformity with the Trading Policies set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.
