Security
The Tobacco Settlement Asset-Backed Bonds Series are issued by the Children's Trust pursuant to the Children's Trust Act, by which the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico transferred to the Trust all of its right, title and interest under the Master Settlement Agreement (the ''MSA'') that was entered into by participating cigarette manufacturers (PMs), Puerto Rico, 46 states and five other U.S. jurisdictions in November 1998 in the settlement of certain smoking-related litigation including the Commonwealth's right to receive certain initial, annual and strategic contribution payments to be made by the PMs under the MSA.
Functions
