Unitholder's bank or broker-dealer at Depository Trust Company. If funds in the
Principal Account are insufficient to cover the required cash distribution to
the tendering Unitholder, the Trustee may sell Bonds according to the criteria
discussed in Section 5.02 of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust.
