Transfer and Exchange of Securities. (a) Securities may only be transferred, in whole or in part, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Trust Agreement and in the terms of the Securities. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any transfer or purported transfer of any Security not made in accordance with this Trust Agreement shall be null and void. (i) Subject to this Article 7, Preferred Securities shall be freely transferable. (ii) Holders of the Common Securities may not transfer the Common Securities except (A) in compliance with a consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance or lease of the Sponsor in compliance with Article V of the Indenture or (B) to the Sponsor or an Affiliate thereof in compliance with applicable law, including the Securities Act and applicable state securities and blue sky laws.

(c) Where Securities are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal liquidation amount of Securities, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange if the requirements of this Trust Agreement for such transactions are met. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Property Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Registrar's request.
