Other Information.

On June 1, 2009, the Underlying Securities Issuer filed for bankruptcy protection in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New York. Under the Trust Agreement, the bankruptcy filing by the Underlying Securities Issuer (the “Company”) constituted an event of default with respect to the Certificates.

At the opening of business on July 20, 2009, New York Stock Exchange LLC (the “Exchange”) removed the entire class of Corporate Backed Trust Certificates, Series 2001-8, Class A-1 due 6/15/2024 (the “Certificates”) of the Depositor from listing and registration on the Exchange, pursuant to the provisions of Rule 12d2-2(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, because, in the opinion of the Exchange, the Certificates were no longer suitable for continued listing and trading on the Exchange “in light of the underlying General Motors Corporation (‘GM’) debt security and the fact that GM filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court in the Southern District of New York.”

On March 18, 2011, the Company and certain of its affiliates filed their Second Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan, which was confirmed by an order of the Bankruptcy Court entered on March 29, 2011 (as so confirmed, the “GM Plan”). The GM Plan became effective on March 31, 2011 and provided for distributions under the Plan to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims.

On July 28, 2011, the Trustee, as a holder of the Underlying Securities, received its pro rata share of a second distribution consisting of 3,502 shares of New GM Stock (CUSIP 37045V100), 3,183 New GM Warrants (Exercise Price of $10.00 per Share, CUSIP 37045V118), and 3,183 New GM Warrants (Exercise Price of $18.33 per Share, CUSIP 37045V126)(collectively, the “New GM Securities”). The Trustee allocated and distributed New GM Securities to the holders of the Class A-1 Certificates then outstanding and unpaid, (after deducing costs incurred in connection therewith) in accordance with Section 5(d) of the Series Supplement on or about August 25, 2011. There were insufficient amounts to make a distribution to the holders of Class A-2 at that time.

On November 1, 2011, the Trustee, as a holder of the Underlying Securities, received its pro rata share of a third distribution consisting of 2,604 shares of New GM Stock (CUSIP 37045V100), 2,367 New GM Warrants (Exercise Price of $10.00 per Share, CUSIP 37045V118) and 2.367 New GM Warrants (Exercise Price of $18.33 per Share, CUSIP 37045V126) (collectively, the “New GM Securities”). The Trustee allocated and distributed New GM Securities to the holders of Class A-1 Certificates then outstanding and unpaid, (after deducting costs incurred in connection therewith) in accordance with Section 5(d) of the Series Supplement on or about January 31, 2012. There were insufficient amounts to make a distribution to the holders of Class A-2 at that time.
