(b)(1)From time to time following the Initial Date of Deposit, the
Depositor is hereby authorized, in its discretion, to assign, convey to
and deposit with the Trustee (i) additional Securities, duly endorsed in
blank or accompanied by all necessary instruments of assignment and
transfer in proper form, (ii) Contract Obligations relating to such
additional Securities, accompanied by cash and/or Letter(s) of Credit as
specified in paragraph (c) of this Section 2.01, or (iii) cash (or a
Letter of Credit in lieu of cash) with instructions to purchase
additional Securities, in an amount equal to the portion of the Unit
Value of the Units created by such deposit attributable to the
Securities to be purchased pursuant to such instructions. Except as
provided in the following subparagraphs (2), (3) and (4) the Depositor,
in each case, shall ensure that each deposit of additional Securities
pursuant to this Section shall maintain, as nearly as practicable, the
Percentage Ratio. Each such deposit of additional Securities shall be
made pursuant to a Notice of Deposit of Additional Securities delivered
by the Depositor to the Trustee. Instructions to purchase additional
Securities shall be in writing, and shall specify the name of the
Security, CUSIP number, if any, aggregate amount, price or price range
and date to be purchased. When requested by the Trustee, the Depositor
shall act as broker to execute purchases in accordance with such
instructions; the Depositor shall be entitled to compensation therefor
in accordance with applicable law and regulations. The Trustee shall
have no liability for any loss or depreciation resulting from any
purchase made pursuant to the Depositor's instructions or made by the
Depositor as broker.
(2)Additional Securities (or Contract Obligations therefor) may, at the
Depositor's discretion, be deposited or purchased in round lots. If the
amount of the deposit is insufficient to acquire round lots of each
Security to be acquired, the additional Securities shall be deposited or
purchased in the order of the Security in the Trust most under-
represented immediately before the deposit with respect to the
Percentage Ratio.
(3)If at the time of a deposit of additional Securities, Securities of
an issue deposited on the Initial Date of Deposit (or of an issue of
Replacement Securities acquired to replace an issue deposited on the
Initial Date of Deposit) are unavailable, cannot be purchased at
reasonable prices or their purchase is prohibited or restricted by
applicable law, regulation or policies, the Depositor may (i) deposit,
or instruct the Trustee to purchase, in lieu thereof, another issue of
Securities or Replacement Securities or (ii) deposit cash or a letter of
credit in an amount equal to the valuation of the issue of Securities
whose acquisition is not feasible with instructions to acquire such
Securities of such issue when they become available.
(4)Any contrary authorization in the preceding subparagraphs (1) through
(3) notwithstanding, deposits of additional Securities made after the 90-
day period immediately following the Initial Date of Deposit (except for
deposits made to replace Failed Contract Obligations if such deposits
occur within 20 days from the date of a failure occurring within such
initial 90-day period) shall maintain exactly the Percentage Ratio
existing immediately prior to such deposit.
(5)In connection with and at the time of any deposit of additional
Securities pursuant to this Section 2.01(b), the Depositor shall exactly
replicate Cash (as defined below) received or receivable by the Trust as
of the date of such deposit. For purposes of this paragraph, "Cash"
means, as to the Capital Account, cash or other property (other than
Securities) on hand in the Capital Account or receivable and to be
credited to the Capital Account as of the date of the deposit (other
than amounts to be distributed solely to persons other than holders of
Units created by the deposit) and, as to the Income Account, cash or
other property (other than Securities) received by the Trust as of the
date of the deposit or receivable by the Trust in respect of a record
date for a payment on a Security which has occurred or will occur before
the Trust will be the holder of record of a Security, reduced by the
amount of any cash or other property received or receivable on any
Security allocable (in accordance with the Trustee's calculations of
distributions from the Income Account pursuant to Section 3.05) to a
distribution made or to be made in respect of a Record Date occurring
prior to the deposit. Such replication will be made on the basis of a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Units created by the
deposit and the denominator of which is the number of Units which are
outstanding immediately prior to the deposit. Cash represented by a
foreign currency shall be replicated in such currency or, if the Trustee
has entered into a contract for the conversion thereof, in U.S. dollars
in an amount replicating the dollars to be received on such conversion."
M.The following shall be added immediately following the first sentence
of paragraph (c) of Section 2.01:
"The Trustee may allow the Depositor to substitute for any Letter(s) of
Credit deposited with the Trustee in connection with the deposits
described in Section 2.01(a) and (b) cash in an amount sufficient to
satisfy the obligations to which the Letter(s) of Credit relates. Any
substituted Letter(s) of Credit shall be released by the Trustee."
N.Section 2.01(c) of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust is
hereby amended by adding the following at the conclusion thereof:
"If any Contract Obligation requires settlement in a foreign currency,
in connection with the deposit of such Contract Obligation the Depositor
will deposit with the Trustee either an amount of such currency
sufficient to settle the contract or a foreign exchange contract in such
amount which settles concurrently with the settlement of the Contract
Obligation and cash or a Letter of Credit in U.S. dollars sufficient to
perform such foreign exchange contact."
O.Section 3.01 of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust shall be
replaced in its entirety with the following:
"Section 3.01. Initial Cost. Subject to reimbursement as hereinafter
provided, the cost of organizing the Trust and the sale of the Trust
Units shall be borne by the Depositor, provided, however, that the
liability on the part of the Depositor under this section shall not
include any fees or other expenses incurred in connection with the
administration of the Trust subsequent to the deposit referred to in
Section 2.01. At the earlier of six months after the Initial Date of
Deposit or the conclusion of the primary offering period (as certified
by the Depositor to the Trustee), the Trustee shall withdraw from the
Account or Accounts specified in the Prospectus or, if no Account is
therein specified, from the Capital Account, and pay to the Depositor
the Depositor's reimbursable expenses of organizing the Trust in an
amount certified to the Trustee by the Depositor. In no event shall the
amount paid by the Trustee to the Depositor for the Depositor's
reimbursable expenses of organizing the Trust exceed the estimated per
Unit amount of organization costs set forth in the Prospectus for the
Trust multiplied by the number of Units of the Trust outstanding at the
earlier of six months after the Initial Date of Deposit or the
conclusion of the primary offering period; nor shall the Depositor be
entitled to or request reimbursement for expenses of organizing the
Trust incurred after the earlier of six months after the Initial Date of
Deposit or the conclusion of the primary offering period. If the cash
balance of the Capital Account is insufficient to make such withdrawal,
the Trustee shall, as directed by the Depositor, sell Securities
identified by the Depositor, or distribute to the Depositor Securities
having a value, as determined under Section 4.01 as of the date of
distribution, sufficient for such reimbursement. Securities sold or
distributed to the Depositor to reimburse the Depositor pursuant to this
Section shall be sold or distributed by the Trustee, to extent
practicable, in the percentage ratio then existing. The reimbursement
provided for in this section shall be for the account of the Unit
holders of record at the earlier of six months after the Initial Date of
Deposit or the conclusion of the primary offering period. Any assets
deposited with the Trustee in respect of the expenses reimbursable under
this Section 3.01 shall be held and administered as assets of the Trust
for all purposes hereunder. The Depositor shall deliver to the Trustee
any cash identified in the Statement of Net Assets of the Trust included
in the Prospectus not later than the expiration of the Delivery Period
and the Depositor's obligation to make such delivery shall be secured by
the letter of credit deposited pursuant to Section 2.01. Any cash which
the Depositor has identified as to be used for reimbursement of expenses
pursuant to this Section 3.01 shall be held by the Trustee, without
interest, and reserved for such purpose and, accordingly, prior to the
earlier of six months after the Initial Date of Deposit or the
conclusion of the primary offering period, shall not be subject to
distribution or, unless the Depositor otherwise directs, used for
payment of redemptions in excess of the per Unit amount payable pursuant
to the next sentence. If a Unit holder redeems Units prior to the
earlier of six months after the Initial Date of Deposit or the
conclusion of the primary offering period, the Trustee shall pay to the
Unit holder, in addition to the Redemption Value of the tendered Units,
unless otherwise directed by the Depositor, an amount equal to the
estimated per Unit cost of organizing the Trust set forth in the
Prospectus, or such lower revision thereof most recently communicated to
the Trustee by the Depositor pursuant to Section 5.01, multiplied by the
number of Units tendered for redemption; to the extent the cash on hand

Trust according to those provisions. The proceeds of any disposition

Unit holder's pro rata share of the balance of the Capital Account
(except for monies on deposit therein required to purchase Contract

All distributions shall be made by check mailed to the post office
address of the Unit holder as it appears on the registration books of
the Trustee."

Distribution shall be equal to such Unit holder's pro rata share of the
cash balance in the Income Account computed as of the close of business
on the Record Date immediately preceding such Income Distribution after
deduction of (i) the fees and expenses then deductible pursuant to
Section 3.05.I. and (ii) the Trustee's estimate of other expenses
properly chargeable to the Income Account pursuant to the Indenture
which have accrued, as of such Record Date, or are otherwise properly
attributable to the period to which such Income Distribution relates."
S.Paragraph (c) of Subsection II of Section 3.05 of the Standard Terms
and Conditions of Trust is hereby amended to read as follows:
"On each Distribution Date the Trustee shall distribute to each Unit
holder of record at the close of business on the Record Date immediately

funds are not available in such Account, from the Capital Account and
pay to the Depositor the amount that it is entitled to receive pursuant
to Section 3.14."
U.Section 3.11 of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust is hereby
deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following language:
"Section 3.11. Notice to Depositor.
In the event that the Trustee shall have been notified at any time of
any action to be taken or proposed to be taken by at least a legally
required number of holders of any Securities deposited in a Trust, the
Trustee shall take such action or omit from taking any action, as
appropriate, so as to insure that the Securities are voted as closely as
possible in the same manner and the same general proportion as are the
Securities held by owners other than such Trust.
In the event that an offer by the issuer of any of the Securities or any
other party shall be made to issue new securities, or to exchange
securities, for Trust Securities, the Trustee shall reject such offer.
However, should any issuance, exchange or substitution be effected
notwithstanding such rejection or without an initial offer, any
securities, cash and/or property received shall be deposited hereunder
and shall be promptly sold, if securities or property, by the Trustee
pursuant to the Depositor's direction, unless the Depositor advises the
Trustee to keep such securities or property. The Depositor may rely on
the Portfolio Supervisor in so advising the Trustee. The cash received
in such exchange and cash proceeds of any such sales shall be
distributed to Unit holders on the next distribution date in the manner
set forth in Section 3.05 regarding distributions from the Capital
Account. The Trustee shall not be liable or responsible in any way for
depreciation or loss incurred by reason of any such sale.
Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee shall be liable to any person for
any action or failure to take action pursuant to the terms of this
Section 3.11.
Whenever new securities or property is received and retained by a Trust
pursuant to this Section 3.11, the Trustee shall provide to all Unit
holders of such Trust notices of such acquisition in the Trustee's
annual report unless prior notice is directed by the Depositor."
V.The first sentence of Section 3.13. shall be amended to read as follows:
"As compensation for providing supervisory portfolio services under this
Indenture, the Portfolio Supervisor shall receive, in arrears, against a
statement or statements therefor submitted to the Trustee monthly or
annually an aggregate annual fee in the amount of $.0025 per Unit,
calculated based on the largest number of Units outstanding during the
period for which the compensation is paid (such annual fee to be pro
rated for any calendar year in which the Portfolio Supervisor provides
services during less than the whole of such year). Such fee may exceed
the actual cost of providing such portfolio supervision services for the
Trust, but at no time will the total amount received for portfolio
supervision services rendered to unit investment trusts of which Nike
Securities L.P. is the sponsor in any calendar year exceed the aggregate
cost to the Portfolio Supervisor of supplying such services in such year."
W.Article III of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust is hereby
amended by inserting the following paragraphs which shall be entitled
Section 3.14.:
"Section 3.14.Bookkeeping and Administrative Expenses. As compensation
for providing bookkeeping and other administrative services of a
character described in Section 26(a)(2)(C) of the Investment
Company Act of 1940 to the extent such services are in addition to, and
do not duplicate, the services to be provided hereunder by the Trustee
or the Portfolio Supervisor, the Depositor shall receive against a
statement or statements therefor submitted to the Trustee monthly or
annually an aggregate annual fee in the per Unit amount set forth in
Part II of the Trust Agreement, calculated based on the largest number
of Units outstanding during the period for which the compensation is
paid (such annual fee to be pro rated for any calendar year in which the
Depositor provides services during less than the whole of such year).
Such fee may exceed the actual cost of providing such bookkeeping and
administrative services for the Trust, but at not time will the total
amount received for bookkeeping and administrative services rendered to
unit investment trusts of which Nike Securities L.P. is the sponsor in
any calendar year exceed the aggregate cost to the Depositor of
supplying such services in such year. Such compensation may, from time
to time, be adjusted provided that the total adjustment upward does not,
at the time of such adjustment, exceed the percentage of the total
increase, after the date hereof, in consumer prices for services as
measured by the United States Department of Labor consumer Price Index
entitled "All Services Less Rent of Shelter" or similar index, if such
index should no longer be published. The consent or concurrence of any
Unit holder hereunder shall not be required for any such adjustment or
increase. Such compensation shall be paid by the Trustee, upon receipt
of an invoice therefor from the Depositor, upon which, as to the cost
incurred by the Depositor of providing services hereunder the Trustee
may rely, and shall be charged against the Income and Capital Accounts
on or before the Distribution Date following the Monthly Record Date on
which such period terminates. The Trustee shall have no liability to
any Certificateholder or other person for any payment made in good faith
pursuant to this Section.
If the cash balance in the Income and Capital Accounts shall be
insufficient to provide for amounts payable pursuant to this Section
3.14, the Trustee shall have the power to sell (i) Securities from the
current list of Securities designated to be sold pursuant to Section
5.02 hereof, or (ii) if no such Securities have been so designated, such
Securities as the Trustee may see fit to sell in its own discretion, and
to apply the proceeds of any such sale in payment of the amounts payable
pursuant to this Section 3.14.
Any moneys payable to the Depositor pursuant to this Section 3.14 shall
be secured by a prior lien on the Trust Fund except that no such lien
shall be prior to any lien in favor of the Trustee under the provisions
of Section 6.04 herein."
X.Article III of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust is hereby
amended by inserting the following paragraph which shall be entitled
Section 3.15:
"Section 3.15. Deferred Sales Charge. If the prospectus related to the
Trust specifies a deferred sales charge, the Trustee shall, on the dates
specified in and as permitted by such Prospectus (the "Deferred Sales
Charge Payment Dates"), withdraw from the Capital Account, an amount per
Unit specified in such Prospectus and credit such amount to a special
non-Trust account designated by the Depositor out of which the deferred
sales charge will be distributed to or on the order of the Depositor on
such Deferred Sales Charge Payment Dates (the "Deferred Sales Charge
Account"). If the balance in the Capital Account is insufficient to
make such withdrawal, the Trustee shall, as directed by the Depositor,
advance funds in an amount required to fund the proposed withdrawal and
be entitled to reimbursement of such advance upon the deposit of
additional monies in the Capital Account, and/or sell Securities and
credit the proceeds thereof to the Deferred Sales Charge Account,
provided, however, that the aggregate amount advanced by the Trustee at
any time for payment of the deferred sales charge shall not exceed
$15,000. Such direction shall, if the Trustee is directed to sell a
Security, identify the Security to be sold and include instructions as
to the execution of such sale. In the absence of such direction by the
Depositor, the Trustee shall sell Securities sufficient to pay the
deferred sales charge (and any unreimbursed advance then outstanding) in
full, and shall select Securities to be sold in such manner as will
maintain (to the extent practicable) the relative proportion of number
of shares of each Security then held. The proceeds of such sales, less
any amounts paid to the Trustee in reimbursement of its advances, shall
be credited to the Deferred Sales Charge Account. If a Unit holder
redeems Units prior to full payment of the deferred sales charge, the
Trustee shall, if so provided in the related Prospectus, on the
Redemption Date, withhold from the Redemption Price payable to such Unit
holder an amount equal to the unpaid portion of the deferred sales
charge and distribute such amount to the Deferred Sales Charge Account.
If the Trust is terminated for reasons other than that set forth in
Section 6.01(g), the Trustee shall, if so provided in the related
Prospectus, on the termination of the Trust, withhold from the proceeds
payable to Unit holders an amount equal to the unpaid portion of the
deferred sales charge and distribute such amount to the Deferred Sales
Charge Account. If the Trust is terminated pursuant to Section 6.01(g),
the Trustee shall not withhold from the proceeds payable to Unit holders
any amounts of unpaid deferred sales charges. If pursuant to Section
5.02 hereof, the Depositor shall purchase a Unit tendered for redemption
prior to the payment in full of the deferred sales charge due on the
tendered Unit, the Depositor shall pay to the Unit holder the amount
specified under Section 5.02 less the unpaid portion of the deferred
sales charge. All advances made by the Trustee pursuant to this Section
shall be secured by a lien on the Trust prior to the interest of the
Unit holders."
Y.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 3.15 and 4.05 of
the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust, so long as Nike Securities
L.P. is acting as Depositor, the Trustee shall have no power to remove
the Portfolio Supervisor.
Z.Article III of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust is hereby
amended by adding the following new Section 3.16:
"Section 3.16. Foreign Currency Exchange. Unless the Depositor shall
otherwise direct, whenever funds are received by the Trustee in foreign
currency, upon the receipt thereof or, if such funds are to be received
in respect of a sale of Securities, concurrently with the contract of
the sale for the Security (in the latter case the foreign exchange
contract to have a settlement date coincident with the relevant contract
of sale for the Security), the Trustee shall enter into a foreign
exchange contract for the conversion of such funds to U.S. dollars
pursuant to the instruction of the Depositor. The Trustee shall have no
liability for any loss or depreciation resulting from action taken
pursuant to such instruction."
AA.Article IV, Section 4.01 of the Standard Terms and Conditions of
Trust is hereby amended in the following manner:
1.Section 4.01(b) is hereby amended by deleting that portion of the
first sentence appearing after the colon and the entire second sentence
and replacing them in their entirety with the following:
"if the Securities are listed on a national or foreign securities
exchange or The Nasdaq Stock Market, such Evaluation shall generally be
based on the closing sale price on the exchange or system which is the
principal market therefor, which shall be deemed to be the New York
Stock Exchange if the Securities are listed thereon (unless the
Evaluator deems such price inappropriate as a basis for evaluation), or
if there is no closing sale price on such exchange or system, at the
closing ask prices. If the Securities are not so listed or, if so
listed and the principal market therefor is other than on an exchange,
the evaluation shall generally be based on the current ask price on the
over-the-counter market (unless it is determined that these prices are
inappropriate as a basis for evaluation). If current ask prices are
unavailable, the evaluation is generally determined (a) on the basis of
current ask prices for comparable securities, (b) by appraising the
value of the Securities on the ask side of the market or (c) any
combination of the above. If such prices are in a currency other than
U.S. dollars, the Evaluation of such Security shall be converted to U.S.
dollars based on current offering side exchange rates, unless the
Security is in the form of an American Depositary Share or Receipt, in
which case the Evaluations shall be based upon the U.S. dollar prices in
the market for American Depositary Shares or Receipts (unless the
Evaluator deems such prices inappropriate as a basis for valuation). As
used herein, the closing sale price is deemed to mean the most recent
closing sale price on the relevant securities exchange immediately prior
to the Evaluation time."
2.Section 4.01(c) is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with
the following:
"(c)After the initial offering period and both during and after the
initial offering period, for purposes of the Trust Fund Evaluations
required by Section 5.01 in determining Redemption Value and Unit Value,
Evaluation of the Securities shall be made in the manner described in
Section 4.01(b), on the basis of current bid prices for Zero Coupon
Obligations (if any),the bid side value of the relevant currency
exchange rate expressed in U.S. dollars and, except in those cases in
which the Equity Securities are listed on a national or foreign
securities exchange or The Nasdaq Stock Market and the closing sale
prices are utilized, on the basis of the current bid prices of the
Equity Securities. In addition, the Evaluator shall reduce the
Evaluation of each Security by the amount of any liquidation costs
(other than brokerage costs incurred on any national securities
exchange) and any capital gains or other taxes which would be incurred
by the Trust upon the sale of such Security, such taxes being computed
as if the Security were sold on the date of the Evaluation."
BB.The first sentence of Section 4.03. shall be amended to read as
follows:
"As compensation for providing evaluation services under this Indenture,
the Evaluator shall receive, in arrears, against a statement or
statements therefor submitted to the Trustee monthly or annually an
aggregate annual fee equal to the amount specified as compensation for
the Evaluator in the Trust Agreement, calculated based on the largest
number of Units outstanding during the period for which the compensation
is paid (such annual fee to be pro rated for any calendar year in which
the Evaluator provides services during less than the whole of such
year). Such compensation may, from time to time, be adjusted provided
that the total adjustment upward does not, at the time of such
adjustment, exceed the percentage of the total increase, after the date
hereof, in consumer prices for services as measured by the United States
Department of Labor Consumer Price Index entitled "All Services Less
Rent of Shelter" or similar index, if such index should no longer be
published. The consent or concurrence of any Unit holder hereunder
shall not be required for any such adjustment or increase. Such
compensation shall be paid by the Trustee, upon receipt of invoice
therefor from the Evaluator, upon which, as to the cost incurred by the
Evaluator of providing services hereunder the Trustee may rely, and
shall be charged against the Income and/or Capital Accounts, in
accordance with Section 3.05."
CC.Section 5.01 is hereby amended to add the following at the conclusion
of the first paragraph thereof:
"For the purpose of calculating the accrual of fees computed on the
largest number of Units outstanding, the Depositor shall provide the
Trustee with estimates of such number of Units for the relevant periods.
Amounts receivable by the Trust in a foreign currency shall be reported
to the Evaluator who shall convert the same to U.S. dollars based on
current exchange rates, in the same manner as provided in Section
4.01(b) or 4.01(c), as applicable, for the conversion of the valuation
of foreign Equity Securities, and the Evaluator shall report such
conversion with each Evaluation made pursuant to Section 4.01."
DD.Section 5.01 of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust shall be
amended as follows:
(i)The second sentence of the first paragraph of Section 5.01 shall be
amended by deleting the phrase "and (iii)" and adding the following
"(iii) amounts representing unpaid accrued organization costs, and (iv)"
; and
(ii) The following text shall immediately precede the last sentence of
the first paragraph of Section 5.01:
"Prior to the payment to the Depositor of its reimbursable organization
costs to be made at the earlier of six months after the Initial Date of
Deposit or the conclusion of the primary offering period in accordance
with Section 3.01, for purposes of determining the Trust Fund Evaluation
under this Section 5.01, the Trustee shall rely upon the amounts
representing unpaid accrued organization costs in the estimated amount
per Unit set forth in the Prospectus until such time as the Depositor
notifies the Trustee in writing of a revised estimated amount per Unit
representing unpaid accrued organization costs. Upon receipt of such
notice, the Trustee shall use this revised estimated amount per Unit
representing unpaid accrued organization costs in determining the Trust
Fund Evaluation but such revision of the estimated expenses shall not
effect calculations made prior thereto and no adjustment shall be made
in respect thereof."
EE.Section 5.02 of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust is amended
by adding the following after the second paragraph of such section:
"Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that any
tender of Units pursuant to this Section 5.02 would result in the
disposition by the Trustee of less than a whole Security, the Trustee
shall distribute cash in lieu thereof and sell such Securities as
directed by the Sponsors as required to make such cash available.
If provided for in the prospectus, Unit holders of the Trusts may redeem
1,000 Units or more of such Trust and request a distribution in kind of
(i) such Unit holder's pro rata portion of each of the Securities in
such Trust, in whole shares, and (ii) cash equal to such Unit holder's
pro rata portion of the Income and Capital Accounts as follows: (x) a
pro rata portion of the net proceeds of sale of the Securities
representing any fractional shares included in such Unit holder's pro
rata share of the Securities and (y) such other cash as may properly be
included in such Unit holder's pro rata share of the sum of the cash
balances of the Income and Principal Accounts in an amount equal to the
Unit Value determined on the basis of a Trust Fund Evaluation made in
accordance with Section 5.01 determined by the Trustee on the date of
tender less amounts determined in clauses (i) and (ii)(x) of this
Section. Subject to Section 5.05 with respect to Rollover Unit holders,
to the extent possible, distributions of Securities pursuant to an in
kind redemption of Units shall be made by the Trustee through the
distribution of each of the Securities in book-entry form to the account
of the Unit holder's bank or broker-dealer at the Depository Trust
Company. Any distribution in kind will be reduced by customary transfer
and registration charges."
FF.The following Section 5.05 shall be added:
"Section 5.05. Rollover of Units. (a) If the Depositor shall offer a
subsequent series of the DART 5 Trust, the DART 10 Trust, the Global
Target 15 Trust, The S&P Target 10 Trust, or The Nasdaq Target 15 Trust
(the "New Series"), the Trustee shall, at the Depositor's sole cost and
expense, include in the notice sent to Unit holders specified in Section
8.02 a form of election whereby Unit holders, whose redemption
distribution would be in an amount sufficient to purchase at least one
Unit of the New Series, may elect to have their Unit(s) redeemed in kind
in the manner provided in Section 5.02, the Securities included in the
redemption distribution sold, and the cash proceeds applied by the
Distribution Agent to purchase Units of a New Series, all as hereinafter
provided. The Trustee shall honor properly completed election forms
returned to the Trustee, accompanied by any Certificate evidencing Units
tendered for redemption or a properly completed redemption request with
respect to uncertificated Units, by its close of business on the
Rollover Notification Date. The notice and form of election to be sent
to Unit holders in respect of any redemption and purchase of Units of a
New Series as provided in this section shall be in such form and shall
be sent at such time or times as the Depositor shall direct the Trustee
in writing and the Trustee shall have no responsibility therefor. The
Distribution Agent acts solely as disbursing agent in connection with
purchases of Units pursuant to this Section and nothing herein shall be
deemed to constitute the Distribution Agent a broker in such transactions.
All Units so tendered by a Unit holder (a "Rollover Unit holder") shall
be redeemed and cancelled during the Special Redemption and Liquidation
Period on such date or dates specified by the Depositor. Subject to
payment by such Rollover Unit holder of any tax or other governmental
charges which may be imposed thereon, such redemption is to be made in
kind pursuant to Section 5.02 by distribution of cash and/or Securities
to the Distribution Agent on the redemption date equal to the net asset
value (determined on the basis of the Trust Fund Evaluation as of the
redemption date in accordance with Section 4.01) multiplied by the
number of Units being redeemed (herein called the "Rollover
Distribution"). Any Securities that are made part of the Rollover
Distribution shall be valued for purposes of the redemption distribution
as of the redemption date.
All Securities included in a Unit holder's Rollover Distribution shall
be sold by the Distribution Agent during the Special Redemption and
Liquidation Period specified in the Prospectus pursuant to the
Depositor's direction, and the Distribution Agent shall, unless directed
otherwise by the Depositor, employ the Depositor as broker in connection
with such sales. For such brokerage services, the Depositor shall be
entitled to compensation at its customary rates, provided however, that
its compensation shall not exceed the amount authorized by applicable
securities laws and regulations. The Depositor shall direct that sales
be made in accordance with the guidelines set forth in the Prospectus
under the heading "Special Redemption, Liquidation and Investment in a
New Trust." Should the Depositor fail to provide direction, the
Distribution Agent shall sell the Securities in the manner provided in
the prospectus. The Distribution Agent shall have no responsibility for
any loss or depreciation incurred by reason of any sale made pursuant to
this Section.
Upon completion of all sales of Securities included in the Rollover Unit
holder's Rollover Distribution, the Distribution Agent shall, as agent
for such Rollover Unit holder, enter into a contract with the Depositor
to purchase from the Depositor Units of a New Series (if any), at the
Depositor's public offering price for such Units on such day, and at
such reduced sales charge as shall be described in the prospectus for
such Trust. Such contract shall provide for purchase of the maximum
number of Units of a New Series whose purchase price is equal to or less
than the cash proceeds held by the Distribution Agent for the Unit
holder on such day (including therein the proceeds anticipated to be
received in respect of Securities traded on such day net of all
brokerage fees, governmental charges and any other expenses incurred in
connection with such sale), to the extent Units are available for
purchase from the Depositor. In the event a sale of Securities included
in the Rollover Unit holder's redemption distribution shall not be
consummated in accordance with its terms, the Distribution Agent shall
apply the cash proceeds held for such Unit holder as of the settlement
date for the purchase of Units of a New Series to purchase the maximum
number of Units which such cash balance will permit, and the Depositor
agrees that the settlement date for Units whose purchase was not
consummated as a result of insufficient funds will be extended until
cash proceeds from the Rollover Distribution are available in a
sufficient amount to settle such purchase. If the Unit holder's
Rollover Distribution will produce insufficient cash proceeds to
purchase all of the Units of a New Series contracted for, the Depositor
agrees that the contract shall be rescinded with respect to the Units as
to which there was a cash shortfall without any liability to the
Rollover Unit holder or the Distribution Agent. Any cash balance
remaining after such purchase shall be distributed within a reasonable
time to the Rollover Unit holder by check mailed to the address of such
Unit holder on the registration books of the Trustee. Units of a New
Series will be uncertificated unless and until the Rollover Unit holder
requests a certificate. Any cash held by the Distribution Agent shall
be held in a non-interest bearing account which will be of benefit to
the Distribution Agent in accordance with normal banking procedures.
Neither the Trustee nor the Distribution Agent shall have any
responsibility or liability for loss or depreciation resulting from any
reinvestment made in accordance with this paragraph, or for any failure
to make such reinvestment in the event the Depositor does not make Units
available for purchase.
(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depositor may, in its discretion
at any time, decide not to offer any new Trust Series in the future, and
if so, this Section 5.05 concerning the Rollover of Units shall be
inoperative.
(c)The Distribution Agent shall receive no fees for performing its
duties hereunder. The Distribution Agent shall, however, be entitled to
receive indemnification and reimbursement from the Trust for any and all
expenses and disbursements to the same extent as the Trustee is
permitted reimbursement hereunder."
GG.Paragraph (e) of Section 6.01 of Article VI of the Standard Terms and
Conditions of Trust is amended to read as follows:
"(e)(I)Subject to the provisions of subparagraphs (II) and (III) of this
paragraph, the Trustee may employ agents, sub-custodians, attorneys,
accountants and auditors and shall not be answerable for the default or
misconduct of any such agents, sub-custodians, attorneys, accountants or
auditors if such agents, sub-custodians, attorneys, accountants or
auditors shall have been selected with reasonable care. The Trustee
shall be fully prote
