opinion as to how that issue would be resolved were it to be considered by the
highest court of the jurisdiction upon whose law our opinion on that issue is
based.&#160; The manner in which any
particular issue would be treated in any actual court case would depend in part
on facts and circumstances particular to the case, and this letter is not
intended to guarantee the outcome of any legal dispute which may arise in the
future.&#160; It is possible that some
Relevant Agreement Terms may not prove enforceable for reasons other than those
cited in this letter should an actual enforcement action be brought, but
(subject to all the exceptions, qualifications, exclusions and other
limitations contained in this letter) such unenforceability would not in our
opinion prevent you from realizing the principal benefits purported to be
provided by the Relevant Agreement Terms.</font></p>
