in accordance with the Trust Agreement, and the Swap Agreement was
terminated in accordance with its terms. The proceeds from the sale of
the Underlying Securities will be distributed in accordance with the
Trust Agreement, first to the Swap Counterparty in satisfaction of the
termination payment owed by the Trust to the Counterparty in connection
with the termination of the Swap Agreement, and second to holders of the
Certificates in liquidation of and as payment in full on the
Certificates. The net proceeds to be distributed per Certificate are
expected to be $26.033314 ($25.00 per Certificate, plus $.99163 premium
and $.043151 accrued interest per Certificate).
