"Lehman and its creditors argued that the 2008 agreement — which it said was "forced" upon it — allowed JPMorgan to apply the $8.6 billion in collateral to its affiliates, subsidiaries and successors, but that customers do not qualify as any of those."
(a) This Guarantee shall be held by the Guarantee Trustee on behalf of the Trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities, and the Guarantee Trustee shall not transfer this Guarantee to any Person except a Holder of Securities exercising his or her rights pursuant to Section 5.4(b) or to a Successor Guarantee Trustee on acceptance by such Successor Guarantee Trustee of its appointment to act as Successor Guarantee Trustee. The right, title and interest of the Guarantee Trustee in and to this Guarantee shall automatically vest in any Successor Guarantee Trustee, and such vesting and succession of title shall be effective whether or not conveyance documents have been executed and delivered pursuant to the appointment of such Successor Guarantee Trustee.
(b) If a Guarantee Event of Default actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Guarantee Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Guarantee Trustee shall enforce this Guarantee for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities.
(c) The Guarantee Trustee, before the occurrence of any Guarantee Event of Default and after the curing of all Guarantee Events of Default that may have occurred, shall undertake to perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Guarantee, and no implied covenants shall be read into this Guarantee against the Guarantee Trustee. In case a Guarantee Event of Default has occurred (that has not been cured or waived pursuant to Section 2.6) and is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Guarantee Trustee, the Guarantee Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Guarantee, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise thereof, as a
prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.
(d) No provision of this Guarantee shall be construed to relieve the Guarantee Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:
(i) prior to the occurrence of any Guarantee Event of Default and after the curing or waiving of all such Guarantee Events of Default that may have occurred:
(A) the duties and obligations of the Guarantee Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Guarantee, and the Guarantee Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Guarantee, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Guarantee against the Guarantee Trustee; and
(B) in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Guarantee Trustee, the Guarantee Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Guarantee Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Guarantee; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions that by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Guarantee Trustee, the Guarantee Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Guarantee;
(ii) the Guarantee Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Guarantee Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Guarantee Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts upon which such judgment was made;
(iii) the Guarantee Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of not less than a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Securities relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Guarantee Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Guarantee Trustee under this Guarantee; and
(iv) no provision of this Guarantee shall require the Guarantee Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if the Guarantee Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for believing that
the repayment of such funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it under the terms of this Guarantee or if the Guarantee Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for believing that an indemnity, reasonably satisfactory to the Guarantee Trustee, against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it under the terms of this Guarantee.
I like this new BIG DADDY definition for NON-CDA CLAIMS:
"means claims filed on behalf of any affiliates of a JPMorgan Entity, or in which any affiliates of a JPMorgan Entity has an interest, that are not Settled Matters, including without limitation claims filed by a JPMorgan Entity as agent, for a fund that it manages,and any other claims that JPMorgan did not assert were covered by LBHI’s August and September 2008 guaranties and security agreements in favor of JPMCB’s subsidiaries and affiliates."
"In circumstances where JPMSI or an Affiliate was the lead managing underwrite, placement agent or the equivalent with respect to an offering of such securities, JPMSI and Affiliates also assert claims of the kind described in the preceding sentence against LBHI on behalf of all underwriters or placement agents in the underwriting or placement syndicate (and their affiliates) with respect to such offer."
LBHI's TRuPS = "(and their affiliates)"

In addition, JPMSI and its Affiliates, each as an entity that may be liable with LBHI to a creditor that has not filed a proof of claim, hereby files pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3005(a) a proof of claim on behalf of each such creditor covering claims with respect to which JPMSI and the Affiliate of JPMSI, as applicable, is a codebtor with LBHI.

"Claims Allowance and CDA. JPMorgan’s Claim No. 66462 against LBHI will be reduced, allowed in an amount consistent with the Settlement Payment and the settlement of the LBSF Action, and the 492nd Omnibus Objection, as set forth in an instruction letter (the “Instruction Letter”) to be submitted to the claims agent retained in the Chapter 11 Cases: Epiq Systems Inc. (the “Claims Agent”), and deemed fully satisfied because it had been previously fully satisfied pursuant to the Collateral Disposition Agreement dated March 16, 2010 [ECF No. 7619] (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “CDA”). Claim Nos. 66474, 66452, 66455, 66465, 66466, 66468, 66469, and 66473 will be assigned to certain of the Lehman Parties on a final basis and reconciled in amounts not to exceed $200 million, as set forth in the Instruction Letter.
