"Section 9.01. Amendments. (a) This Indenture may be amended from time to time
by the Depositor and Trustee or their respective successors, without the consent
of any of the Unitholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement
any provision contained herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any
other provision contained herein, (ii) to make such other provision in regard to
matters or questions arising hereunder as shall not materially adversely affect
the interests of the Unitholders or (iii) to make such amendments as may be
necessary (a) for the Trust to continue to qualify as a regulated investment
company for federal income tax purposes if the Trust has elected to be taxed as
such under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or (b)
to prevent the Trust from being deemed an association taxable as a corporation
for federal income tax purposes if the Trust has not elected to be taxed as a
regulated investment company under the United States Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended. This Indenture may not be amended, however, without the
-3-
consent of all Unitholders then outstanding, so as (1) to permit, except in
accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, the acquisition hereunder of
any Securities other than those specified in the Schedules to the Trust
Agreement or (2) to reduce the aforesaid percentage of Units the holders of
which are required to consent to certain of such amendments. This Indenture may
not be amended so as to reduce the interest in a Trust represented by Units
(whether evidenced by Certificates or held in uncertificated form) without the
consent of all affected Unitholders.
(b) Except for the amendments, changes or modifications as provided in
Section 9.01(a) hereof, neither the parties hereto nor their respective
successors shall consent to any other amendment, change or modification of this
Indenture without the giving of notice and the obtaining of the approval or
consent of Unitholders representing at least 66 2/3% of the Units then
outstanding of the affected Trust. Nothing contained in this Section 9.01(b)
shall permit, or be construed as permitting, a reduction of the aggregate
percentage of Units the holders of which are required to consent to any
amendment, change or modification of this Indenture without the consent of the
Unitholders of all of the Units then outstanding of the affected Trust and in no
event may any amendment be made which would (1) alter the rights to the
Unitholders as against each other, (2) provide the Trustee with the power to
engage in business or investment activities other than as specifically provided
in this Indenture, (3) adversely affect the tax status of the Trust for federal
income tax purposes or result in the Units being deemed to be sold or exchanged
for federal income tax purposes or (4) unless the Trust has elected to be taxed
as a regulated investment company for federal income tax purposes, result in a
variation of the investment of Unitholders in the Trust.
(c) Unless the Depositor directs that other notice shall be provided, the
Trustee shall include in the annual report provided pursuant to Section 3.06
notification of the substance of such amendment."
