Upon the purchase of the NTASC S4B Bonds from the Funds, NTASC shall cause the NTASC S4B Bonds to be delivered to Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company, as trustee for the NYCTT V Bonds, for cancellation. In such capacity, Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company agrees to cancel the NTASC S4B Bonds and to provide written and electronic notice of such cancellation to NTASC and the New York Counties Tobacco Trust V, as the issuer of the NYCTT V Bonds. Promptly following such cancellation of the NTASC S4B Bonds, Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company, as trustee for NTASC's Tobacco Settlement Asset- Backed Bonds, Series 2005 (the "Series 2005 Bonds"), shall cancel Series 2005 Bond No. RS4B-1 that had formerly secured the NTASC S4B Bonds and provide NTASC with written and electronic notice of such cancellation of Series 2005 Bond No. RS4B-1. 2. Execution of Consent and Waiver. Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement and to facilitate the issuance by NTASC of the Series 2014 Bonds to finance, among other purposes, the payment of the Purchase Price of the NTASC S4B Bonds, the Funds as sole bondholders of the NYCTT V Bonds (including all of the NTASC S4B Bonds), agree to execute and deliver to NTASC and Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company, as trustee for the NYCTT V Bonds, the consent and waiver attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Consent and Waiver"). The effectiveness of such Consent and Waiver is conditional on receipt by the Funds of the Purchase Price. Except as otherwise agreed to by the parties to this Agreement, unless the Funds shall have received the payment for the Purchase Price contemplated by Section 1 of this As of June 1, 2014, the accreted value of the NTASC S4B Bonds was $12,651,150. For the avoidance of doubt, the accreted value of the NTASC S4B Bonds on the Closing Date will include interest at 7.85% from the most recent compounding date to, but not including, the Closing Date. 1

Exhibit A CONSENT AND WAIVER The mutual funds listed below (the "Funds") as the Bondholders of all of the outstanding New York Counties Tobacco Trust V Tobacco Settlement Pass-Through Bonds (the "NYCTT V Bonds"), including, in particular, all of the Series 2005 S4B (Subordinate Turbo CABS) (the "NTASC S4B Bonds"), do hereby consent to the issuance and sale by Niagara Tobacco Asset Securitization Corporation ("NTASC") of its Tobacco Settlement Asset-Backed Bonds, Series 2014 (the "Series 2014 Bonds") and the use of the proceeds thereof to (i) currently refund NTASC's Tobacco Settlement Asset-Backed Bonds, Series 2000 (the "Series 2000 Bonds"), including the funding of a Debt Service Reserve Fund in an amount equal to maximum annual debt service on the Series 2014 Bonds and the payment of costs of issuance of the Series 2014 Bonds, (ii) purchase from the Funds, for cancellation, all of the NTASC S4B Bonds at the Purchase Price specified in the Purchase Agreement, Consent and Release dated as of July 31, 2014, between NTASC and the Funds (the "Agreement"), and (iii) provide for a payment of an amount not to exceed $2,000,000 to the holder of the Residual Certificate notwithstanding any provision to the contrary that may be contained in the Series 2005 Supplemental Bond Indenture between NTASC and Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company, as trustee thereunder (the "2005 Supplemental Indenture") pursuant to which NTASC has issued its Tobacco Settlement Asset-Backed Bonds, Series 2005 (the "Series 2005 Bonds"), a portion of which Series 2005 Bonds secure a like amount of NTASC S4B Bonds. Furthermore, as the Bondholders of all of the NYCTT V Bonds (including all of the NTASC S4B Bonds), the Funds hereby consent to and waive (to the extent such Bondholders have the authority to waive such provisions) the provisions of the 2005 Supplemental Indenture to the extent inconsistent with the issuance and sale of the Series 2014 Bonds only and NTASC's purchase of the NTASC S4B Bonds pursuant to the Agreement. Each of the Funds also recognizes and acknowledges that the refunding of the Series 2000 Bonds and the purchase of the NTASC S4B Bonds pursuant to the Agreement (collectively, the "Transaction") will have the effect of altering the schedule of future turbo payments on the Series 2005 Bonds and the related NYCTT V Bonds attributable to NTASC from the payment schedule that existed had the Transaction not occurred but do not otherwise alter the rights of bondholders thereunder. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings specified therefor in the 2005 Supplemental Indenture. Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company, as the Trustee for the Series 2005 Bonds and the Trustee for the NYCTT V Bonds is hereby directed by the Funds to take all trustee actions consistent with the consent and waiver herein provided as may be necessary or desirable to effectuate the Transaction contemplated by the Agreement. This Consent and Waiver shall be effective upon execution by the Funds but is conditioned upon receipt of the Purchase Price set forth in the Agreement, and failure by NTASC to pay such Purchase Price on the date of issuance of the Series 2014 Bonds shall automatically render this Consent and Waiver to be null and void ab initio. This Consent and Waiver may not be revoked by the Funds before September 30, 2014 unless NTASC informs the Funds in writing and electronically prior to such date that it will not pay the purchase price. Upon payment of the Purchase Price, this Consent and Waiver shall become permanently irrevocable by the Funds. 1
