Auction fails to deliver such Tortoise Notes, the Broker-Dealer of any Person
that was to have purchased Tortoise Notes in such Auction may deliver to such
Person a number of whole Tortoise Notes that is less than the number of Tortoise
Notes that otherwise was to be purchased by such Person. In such event, the
number of Tortoise Notes to be so delivered shall be determined by such

Notes, such Broker-Dealer shall deliver to the Auction Agent the notice required
by Section 3.3(d)(ii) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of this
Section 3.4(b), any delivery or non-delivery of Tortoise Notes which represents

Section 3.3(d) hereof.

Broker-Dealer and were acquired by the Broker-Dealer for its own account or were
acquired by the Broker-Dealer for its customers who are Beneficial Owners or
(ii) the subject of an Order submitted by the Broker-Dealer that is (a) a
