assets credited to the Securities Account; (iii) all security entitlements with
respect to the financial assets credited to the Securities Account; (iv) any and
all other investment property or assets maintained or recorded in the Securities
Account; and (v) whatever is receivable or received when any of the foregoing or
proceeds thereof are sold, collected, exchanged or otherwise disposed of,
whether such disposition is voluntary or involuntary, including without
limitation, cash proceeds; and
(b) the
terms "investment property," "entitlement order," "financial asset" and
"security entitlement" shall have the respective meanings set forth in the
Minnesota Uniform Commercial Code. The parties hereby expressly agree
that all property, including without limitation, cash, certificates of deposit
and mutual funds, at any time held in the Securities Account is to be treated as
a "financial asset."
2. AGREEMENT

consent or direction from Customer or any other party.
3. CUSTOMER'S
RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO THE COLLATERAL.
(a) Until

(i)
Customer, or any party authorized by Customer to act with respect to the
Securities Account, may give trading instructions to Intermediary with respect

(ii)

Customer's directions that portion of the Collateral which consists of interest
and/or cash dividends earned on financial assets maintained in the Securities
Account.
(b) Without

preceding paragraph: (i) neither Customer nor any party other than Secured Party
may withdraw any Collateral from the Securities Account; and (ii) Intermediary

from the Securities Account given by any party other than Secured
Party.

respect to the operation of the Securities Account; and (ii) payment owed to
Intermediary for open trade commitments for purchases in and for the Securities

not enter into any control, custodial or other similar agreement with any other
party that would create or acknowledge the existence of any such other claim,
security interest or lien.
(d) Without
Secured Party's prior written consent, Intermediary and Customer shall not amend
or modify the Account Agreement, other than: (i) amendments to reflect ordinary
and reasonable changes in Intermediary's fees and charges for handling the

thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Secured Party.
6. RESPONSIBILITY
OF INTERMEDIARY. Except for permitting a withdrawal or payment in
violation of Section 3(b), Intermediary shall have no responsibility or
liability to Secured Party for making trades of financial assets held in the
Securities Account at the instruction of Customer, or its authorized
representatives, which are received by Intermediary before it receives notice
from Secured Party pursuant to Section 3(c). Intermediary shall have
no responsibility or liability to Customer for complying with a notice pursuant
to Section 3(c) or complying with entitlement orders received from Secured
Party. Intermediary shall comply with entitlement orders received

validity. This Agreement does not impose or create any obligation or
duty of Intermediary other than those expressly set forth herein.

officers, directors, employees and agents, against claims, liabilities or
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of Intermediary’s
