  2.

By choosing Citibank as an approved borrower you agree that, from time to time, Citibank may (1) borrow securities for its own proprietary transactions or (2) borrow securities from you, and on-lend them to other borrowers as riskless principal/conduit lender. As to only these loans, the Agent shall have all the rights and obligations of the Borrower as set forth in the Lending Agreements, provided however that:

With respect to loans made pursuant to (1) above, Citibank acknowledges and agrees that such loans:

 

  (a)

shall be made pursuant to terms and conditions substantively equivalent to the terms and conditions of loans with other Borrowers under the Lending Agreement; and

 

  (b)

shall be made at rates and pricing equal to or better than rates or pricing negotiated with other borrowers for a similarly structured loan.


With respect to loans made pursuant to (2) above:

 

  (a)

Citibank will do so only upon receipt of a request by a potential borrower (which may include entities affiliated with Citibank), and not for its own account.

 

  (b)

Citibank will only do so if a potential borrower is not on your list of approved borrowers (such a borrower, a “non-approved borrower”).

 

  (c)

Citibank will only do so if, at the time that a non-approved borrower offers to borrow the same securities from Citibank, we have not received nor have actual knowledge of an offer to borrow the same securities from an approved borrower.    

 

  (d)

You acknowledge that Citibank will be compensated by means of a spread between the fees paid to you by Citibank and the fees charged by Citibank to the ultimate borrower.

 

  (e)

You confirm that you are not a fund or plan subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), are not an affiliate of Citibank under section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act, and that no Citibank affiliate has investment discretion over the assets to be lent (unless specific authorization exists under Applicable Law).

 

  (f)
