"Section 3.16. 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, withdraw from the
Principal 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 the
Depositor (the "Deferred Sales Charge Account"). If the balance in the
Principal 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 Principal 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

a Security, identify the Security to be sold and include instructions as to
the execution of such sale. If a Unitholder 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 Unitholder 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)(ii), the Trustee shall, if so
provided in the related Prospectus, on the termination of the Trust,
withhold from the proceeds payable to Unitholders 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)(ii), the Trustee shall not withhold from the proceeds
payable to Unitholders 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 Unitholder
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 Unitholder."
(g) Notwithstanding the provision of Section 3.05 of the Standard Terms
and Conditions of Trust, for Rolling Government Series 5, the Monthly Record
Date shall be the first day of each month and, for each Trust, the first
Monthly Record Date shall be that date set forth in the Prospectus.
(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Standard Terms and
Conditions of Trust, Xxxxxx Data Corporation shall replace National Financial
Services Corporation as Evaluator.
(i) The second and third sentences of Section 4.03 of the Standard Terms
and Conditions of Trust are hereby deleted.

The Depositor, in each case, shall ensure that each deposit of additional
Securities pursuant to this Section shall, as nearly as is practicable,
maintain the percentage relationship among the principal amount of
Securities existing immediately prior to such deposit (provided, however,
than any deposit of additional Securities into a Trust which has not nor
will elect to be taxed as a Regulated Investment Company made after the
90th day following the Date of Deposit shall exactly maintain the
percentage relationship among the principal amount of Securities existing
immediately prior to such deposit) and the Depositor shall ensure that
such Securities are identical to those deposited on the Date of Deposit.
(l) A new clause (viii) shall be added to subparagraph (1) of Section
3.14(a) of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust as follows:
"and (viii) if the Trust has not nor will elect to be taxed as a Regulated
Investment Company, be deposited within 110 days following the Date of
Deposit."
(m) The second paragraph of Section 5.01 of the Standard Terms and
Conditions of Trust shall be deleted and the following sentence shall be added
at the end of Section 4.01:
"The Evaluator shall make an evaluation of the Securities deposited in each
Trust as of the evaluation time specified in the Prospectus on the Date of
Deposit (or on the preceding business day if so specified in the
Prospectus). Such evaluation shall be made on the same basis as set forth
in this Section 4.01 and shall be based on the offering prices of said
Securities."
(n) The Trustee shall reimburse the Depositor from the Trustee's
commission the Depositor's cost of providing to its customers who are
Unitholders bookkeeping and administrative services with respect to such
Unitholders' Units of a kind customarily performed by the Trustee, not to exceed
that annual amount per $1,000 principal amount of Securities specified in the
prospectus (such maximum annual amount to be pro rated for any calendar year in
which the Depositor provides services during less than the whole of such year).
Such reimbursement shall be computed in the same manner as the Trustee's
compensation and shall be paid at or shortly after the end of each calendar year
against a statement submitted to Trustee, which shall constitute the Depositor's
certification that the amounts claimed as due do not exceed the amount payable
in accordance with this paragraph, and the Trustee shall have no liability for
payments made in reliance upon such certification.
