	(e)	The Master Issuer Cash Manager shall promptly notify each of the Master Issuer and the Master Issuer Security Trustee of any additional account which supplements or replaces any account specifically referred to in the definition of the "Master Issuer Transaction Accounts" in the Master Issuer Master Definitions and Construction Schedule.
