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 and, except for situations in which the Trust Fund Evaluation determined as provided in Section 5.01 hereof has been reduced by the amount of any unpaid accrued deferred sales charge, 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, which amount, except for situations in which the Trust Fund Evaluation determined as provided in Section 5.01 hereof has been reduced by the amount of any unpaid accrued deferred sales charge, shall be reduced by 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. If the related Prospectus provides that the deferred sales charge shall accrue on a daily basis, the "unpaid portion of the deferred sales charge" as used in this paragraph shall mean the accrued and unpaid deferred sales charge as of the date of redemption or termination, as appropriate. The Depositor represents that the price paid by any Unit holder for Units acquired through reinvestment of Trust distributions will be reduced by the aggregate amount of unpaid deferred sales charge at the time of the purchase to off set any subsequent collection by the Depositor of deferred sales charge in respect of the Units so acquired."
