Memo to Master Agreement Structural Issues Working Group:

Recently , ISDA requested formal guidance from counsel in 35 jurisdictions
regarding a range of issues  relating to the strategic documentation review.
Briefly, the request for advice focused on (i) proposed changes to Sections
5 and 6 of the Master Agreement; (ii) proposed Force Majeure Annex; (iii)
the effect of an ISDA Master Agreement of the Cross-Product Master
Agreement, published by the Bond Market Association and the development of
ISDA's Bridging Agreement; and (iv) the inclusion of additional types of
financial transactions under the Master Agreement.

> To date, we have received the majority of the Strategic Documentation
> Review opinions and have attached what we have received to date for your
> review.  In addition, we have attached a sample request letter that we
> sent to counsel.
