The Notes constituting components of Income Equity Units shall be deemed tendered, notwithstanding any failure by the Holder of such Income Equity Units to deliver or properly deliver such Notes to the Remarketing Agent for purchase. (c) The right of each Holder to have Notes (including any Notes that constitute components of Income Equity Units) tendered for purchase shall be limited to the extent that (i) the Remarketing Agent conducts a remarketing pursuant to the terms of the Remarketing Agreement, (ii) Notes tendered have not been called for redemption, (iii) the Remarketing Agent is able to find a purchaser or purchasers for tendered Notes at a price per Note such that the aggregate price for the Applicable Principal Amount of Notes is not less than 100% of the Treasury Portfolio Purchase Price, and (iv) such purchaser or purchasers deliver the purchase price therefor to the Remarketing Agent as and when required. (d) On the Initial Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent shall use reasonable efforts to remarket, at a price per Note such that the aggregate price for the Applicable Principal Amount of Notes is equal to approximately 100.5% of the Treasury Portfolio Purchase Price, Notes tendered or deemed tendered for purchase. (e) If there are no Income Equity Units outstanding and none of the Holders elect to have Notes held by them remarketed, the Reset Rate shall be the rate determined by the Reset Agent, subject to the terms of the Remarketing Agreement, as the rate that would have been established had a remarketing been held on the Initial Remarketing Date. (f) If the Remarketing Agent has determined that it will be able to remarket all Notes tendered or deemed tendered prior to 4:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Initial Remarketing Date, the Reset Agent, subject to the terms of the Remarketing Agreement, shall determine the Reset Rate. (g) If, by 4:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Initial Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent is unable to remarket all Notes tendered or deemed tendered for purchase or if the Initial Remarketing shall not have occurred because a condition precedent to the Remarketing shall not have been fulfilled, a failed remarketing ("FAILED INITIAL REMARKETING") shall be deemed to have occurred and the Remarketing Agent shall so advise by telephone the Collateral Agent, Corporation, Trustee, and Depositary.

The Depositary shall make payment in accordance with its normal procedures. (j) If any Holder selling Notes in the Initial Remarketing fails to deliver such Notes, the Depositary Participant of such selling Holder and of any other Person that was to have purchased Notes in the Initial Remarketing may deliver to any such other Person an aggregate principal amount of Notes that is less than the aggregate principal amount of Notes that otherwise was to be purchased by such Person. In such event, the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be so delivered shall be determined by such Depositary Participant, and delivery of such lesser aggregate principal amount of Notes shall constitute good delivery. (k) The Remarketing Agent is not obligated to purchase any Notes in the Initial Remarketing or otherwise. Neither the Trustee, the Corporation nor the Remarketing Agent shall be obligated in any case to provide funds to make payment upon tender of Notes for remarketing. (l) The tender and settlement procedures set forth in this Section 8.01, including provisions for payment by purchasers of Notes in the Initial Remarketing, shall be subject to modification, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth herein, to the extent required by the Depositary or if the book-entry system is no longer available for the Notes at the time of the Initial Remarketing, to facilitate the tendering and remarketing of Notes in certificated form.

(b) Not later than the second Business Day immediately preceding the Secondary Remarketing Date, each Holder of the Notes not constituting components of Income Equity Units may elect to have Notes held by such Holder remarketed. Holders of Notes that are not a component of Income Equity Units shall give notice of their election to have such Notes remarketed to the Custodial Agent and deliver such Notes to the Custodial Agent pursuant to the Pledge Agreement. Any such notice and delivery shall be irrevocable after the second Business Day immediately preceding the Secondary Remarketing Date and may not be conditioned upon the level at which the Reset Rate is established. Promptly after 11:30 A.M., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Secondary Remarketing Date, the Trustee, based on the notices received by it prior to such time, shall notify the Corporation and the Remarketing Agent of the principal amount of Notes to be tendered for remarketing.
