Derivative Contracts (a) The Trustee shall, at the written direction of the Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, enter into Derivative Contracts, solely for the benefit of the Class SB Certificates.

The Master Servicer shall determine, in its sole discretion, whether any Derivative Contract conforms to the requirements of clauses (b) and (c) of this Section 4.09. Any acquisition of a Derivative Contract shall be accompanied by an appropriate amendment to this Agreement, including an Opinion of Counsel, as provided in Section 11.01, and either (i) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the existence of the Derivative Contract will not adversely affect the availability of the exemptive relief afforded under ERISA by U.S. Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Exemption ("PTE") 94-29, as most recently amended, 67 Fed. Reg. 54487 (Aug. 22, 2002), to the Holders of the Class A Certificates or the Class M Certificates, as of the date the Derivative Contract is acquired by the Trustee; or (ii) the consent of each holder of a Class A Certificate or Class M Certificate to the acquisition of such Derivative Contract.

In no event shall such an instrument constitute a part of any REMIC created hereunder. In addition, in the event any such instrument is deposited, the Trust Fund shall be deemed to be divided into two separate and discrete sub-trusts. The assets of one such sub-trust shall consist of all the assets of the Trust Fund other than such instrument and the assets of the other sub-trust shall consist solely of such instrument.
