SWAP TRADING ADDENDUM
If you are a US person, please complete this Swap Trading Addendum and the
attached Annex and
return signed, completed copies of both to your DB representative.
This Swap Trading Addendum (the "Addendum") modifies and supplements the
contract or contracts
used by Client and DB to document their swaps (the "Agreement"). If Client
EFTA01412733
and DB are not currently
documenting their swaps under a form of standard master swap agreement
published by the International
Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. ("ISDA") or another industry group
that has been manually
signed by the parties, then by delivery of the Addendum to DB, Client is
agreeing that (1) as and fl^om the
date that DB signs this Addendum, the parties shall be deemed to have
entered into an ISDA 2002 Master
Agreement, without any Schedule thereto, except the election that such
agreement shall be governed by
New York law (the "Deemed ISDA Master Agreement"), and (2) all swaps entered
into by the parties
after such date shall be subject to that Deemed ISDA Master Agreement. If,
after the date of entry into
this Addendum, Client and DB manually execute a form of standard master
agreement published by
ISDA or another industry group, this Addendum shall supplement and form part
of that master agreement
(as supplemented by the Addendum, the "Subsequent Agreement") and all swaps
previously governed
by the terms of the Deemed ISDA Master Agreement shall thereinafter be
governed by the terms of the
Subsequent Agreement. ■

respect to a swap and any SDR

valuations for swaps (as
specified by that party for this purpose in writing) on the immediately

apphcable, and (ii) in the case of Valuations, in good faith and using
commercially reasonable procedures
in order to produce a commerciaUy reasonable result.
