taken or proposed to be taken by holders of the securities held
by the Trust in connection with any proposed merger, reorganiza-
tion, spin-off, split-off or split-up by the issuer of stock or
securities held in the Trust, the Trustee shall take such action
or refrain from taking any action, as appropriate, so as to in-
sure that the securities are voted as closely as possible in the
same manner and in the same general proportion as are the securi-
-3-
ties held by owners other than the Trust. If stock or securities
are received by the Trustee, with or without cash, as a result of
any merger, reorganization, spin-off, split-off or split-up by
the issuer of stock or securities held in the Trust, the Trustee
at the direction of the Depositor may retain such stock or secu-
rities in the Trust. Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee shall
be liable to any person for any action or failure to take action
with respect to this section.

(9) "Deferred Sales Charge" shall mean any deferred sales charge pay-

forth in the prospectus for a Trust. Definitions following this defi-
nition (9) shall be renumbered.
H. Section 3.05 is hereby amended to add the following para-
graph after the end thereof: On each Deferred Sales Charge payment
date set forth in the prospectus for a Trust, the Trustee shall pay
the account created pursuant to Section 3.14 the amount of the De-
ferred Sales Charge payable on each such date as stated in the pro-
spectus for a Trust. Such amount shall be withdrawn from the Princi-
pal Account from the amounts therein designated for such purpose.
I. Section 3.06B(3) shall be amended by adding the following:
"and any Deferred Sales Charge paid".
J. Section 3.08 shall be amended by adding the following at the
end thereof: "In order to pay the Deferred Sales Charge, the Trustee
shall sell or liquidate an amount of Securities at such time and from
time to time and in such manner as the Depositor shall direct such
that the proceeds of such sale or liquidation shall equal the amount
required to be paid to the Depositor pursuant to the Deferred Sales
Charge program as set forth in the prospectus for a Trust.
K. Section 3.14 shall be added as follows:
Section 3.14. Deferred Sales Charge. If the prospectus for
a Trust specifies a Deferred Sales Charge, the Trustee shall, on
the dates specified in and as permitted by the prospectus, with-
draw from the Income Account if such account is designated in the
prospectus as the source of the payments of the Deferred Sales
Charge, or to the extent funds are not available in that account
or if such account is not so designated, from the Principal Ac-
count, an amount per Unit specified in the prospectus and credit
such amount to a special, non-Trust account maintained at the
Trustee out of which the Deferred Sales Charge will be distrib-
uted to the Depositor. If the Income Account is not designated
as the source of the Deferred Sales Charge payment or if the bal-
ances in the Income and Principal Accounts are insufficient to
make any such withdrawal, the Trustee shall, as directed by the
Depositor, either advance funds, if so agreed to by the Trustee,
in an amount equal to the proposed withdrawal and be entitled to
-4-
reimbursement of such advance upon the deposit of additional mo-
xxxx in the Income Account or the Principal Account, sell Securi-
ties and credit the proceeds thereof to such special Depositor's
account or credit Securities in kind to such special Depositor's
Account. Such directions shall identify the Securities, if any,
to be sold or distributed in kind and shall contain, if the Trus-
tee is directed by the Depositor to sell a Security, instructions
as to execution of such sales. If a Unit Holder redeems Units
prior to full payment of the Deferred Sales Charge, the Trustee
shall, if so provided in the prospectus, on the Redemption Date,
withhold from the Redemption Price payment to such Unit Holder an
amount equal to the unpaid portion of the Deferred Sales Charge
and distribute such amount to such special Depositor's account
or, if the Depositor shall purchase such Unit pursuant to the
terms of Section 5.02 hereof, the Depositor shall pay the Redemp-
tion Price for such Unit less the unpaid portion of the Deferred
Sales Charge. The Depositor may at any time instruct the Trustee
to distribute to the Depositor cash or Securities previously
credited to the special Depositor's account.
