                                       to meet such shortfall, the claims of the Certificateholders 
                                       and any other creditors relating to the Certificates 
                                       in respect of any such shortfall shall be extinguished. 
                                       No party will be able to petition for the winding-up 
                                       of the Issuer as a consequence of any such shortfall.

              the offer and            use of proceeds are not different from making

                                       in place between such Authorised Participant

                                       and settlement arrangements. Neither the Issuer

                                       arrangements with investors (except where the

                                       or the Arranger, as applicable. Investors should

                                       of any and all Series outstanding from time 
                                       to time shall not in any event exceed 1,000,000,000 
                                       (the "Programme Limit"). 
                                       Offer Price: The offer price per Certificate 
                                       will be equal to the Issue Price, subject to 
                                       any applicable fees and commissions of the person 
                                       offering such Certificate.

                                       and the Maturity Date of such Series.

 E.4         Material interests       Source UK Services Limited which is acting as 
              in the offer             Portfolio Adviser and Arranger in respect of 
                                       the Programme has a relationship with certain 
                                       Authorised Participants under the Programme 
                                       and may have a relationship with future Authorised 
                                       Participants appointed to the Programme. Such 
                                       relationships may therefore potentially give 
                                       rise to conflicts of interest which are adverse 
                                       to the interests of the Certificateholders. 
                                       The Authorised Participants and/or their affiliates 
                                       actively trade in commodities markets. These 
                                       activities could give rise to conflicts of interest 
                                       which are adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders 
                                       and could adversely affect the market value 
                                       of the Certificates. 
 E.7         Expenses chargeable      In connection with the redemption of any Certificate

                                       notice fee of up to US$500.00 will be payable 
                                       by the relevant Certificateholder. 
                                       The Cash Amount payable or the Delivery Amount

                                       redemption is calculated net of all expenses, 
                                       fees and charges incurred or to be incurred 
                                       in connection therewith. 
                                       From time to time, in respect of Certificates, 
                                       a portion of the Underlying Precious Metal equal 
                                       to the aggregate of the daily amounts by which 
                                       the Per Certificate Entitlement to such Underlying 
                                       Precious Metal has been reduced by the Reduction

                                       and the proceeds thereof, in the normal course, 
                                       paid to the Portfolio Adviser in consideration 
                                       for its services as Portfolio Adviser and also 
                                       its agreement to pay the fees and expenses due 
                                       to the other service providers in connection 
                                       with the Programme (but not including any indemnities 
                                       granted in favour of the other service providers).
