Item 1122 of Regulation AB. Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria

The Bank of New York Mellon (in its role as trustee) has been identified by the registrant as participating in the servicing function with respect to the asset pool held by the PPLUS Trust Series LTD-1 (the “Servicing Party”). The Servicing Party has completed a report on assessment of compliance with the servicing criteria applicable to it (a “Servicing Report”), which Servicing Report is attached as exhibit 33.1 to this Form 10-K. The Servicing Party has provided an attestation report (an “Attestation Report”) by KPMG LLP, Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, which report is attached as exhibit 34.1 to this Form 10-K. Each of the Servicing Report and the Attestation Report identified material instances of noncompliance with servicing criteria 1122(d)(3)(i)(A) and 1122(d)(3)(ii) as described therein.

While Regulation AB does not contemplate identifying noncompliance on an individual transaction basis, the Servicing Party has confirmed to the Registrant that no instances of noncompliance with Regulation AB were discovered with respect to the PPLUS trust series that were part of the statistical sample used in preparing the Servicing Report. The Servicing Party has informed the Registrant that the Servicing Party cannot provide any assurances that had an analysis been done of each and every transaction included in the platform (including all PPLUS trust series forming part of the platform), that additional instances of noncompliance would not have been discovered. However, the Servicing Party has informed the Registrant that it has no reason, based on the sampling and analysis done, to believe that there are any instances of noncompliance with those PPLUS trust series that were not part of the sampling procedures.

Item 1123 of Regulation AB. Servicer Compliance Statement

The Bank of New York Mellon has been identified by the registrant as the servicer with respect to the asset pool held by the Trust. The Bank of New York Mellon has completed a statement of compliance with applicable servicing criteria (a “Compliance Statement”), signed by an authorized officer of The Bank of New York Mellon. The Compliance Statement is attached as an exhibit to this Form 10-K.
