references herein to Articles and Sections are to Articles and Sections of the
Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust.
WITNESSETH THAT:
In consideration of the premises and of the mutual agreements herein
contained, the Depositor, Trustee, Evaluator and Supervisor agree as follows:
PART I
STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF TRUST
Subject to the provisions of Part II hereof, all the provisions contained in
the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust are herein incorporated by reference
in their entirety and shall be deemed to be a part of this instrument as fully
and to the same extent as though said provisions had been set forth in full in
this instrument.
PART II
SPECIAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF TRUST
The following special terms and conditions are hereby agreed to:
1. The Bonds listed in the Schedule hereto have been deposited in trust under
this Trust Agreement.
2. The fractional undivided interest in and ownership of each Trust
represented by each Unit thereof is a fractional amount, the numerator of which
is one and the denominator of which is the amount set forth under "Summary of
Essential Financial Information-General Information-Number of Units" in the
Prospectus for each Trust.
3. The term "Final Trust Year" shall be added to Section 1.01 and shall mean
the final calendar year of the Trust, commencing on January 1, 2021.
4. The term "First Settlement Date" shall mean the date set forth in footnote
3 under "Summary of Essential Financial Information" in the Prospectus for the
Trust.
5. The term "Monthly Distribution Date" shall mean the "Distribution Dates"
and subsequent footnote 7 set forth under "Summary of Essential Financial
Information--Estimated Distributions" in the Prospectus for each Trust.
6. The term "Monthly Record Date" shall mean the "Record Dates" set forth
under "Summary of Essential Financial Information--Estimated Distributions" in
the Prospectus for each Trust.
7. The term "U.S. Treasury Securities" shall be added to Section 1.01 and
shall mean direct obligations of the United States which are backed by the full
faith and credit of the United States.
8. The term "Bonds" as set forth in Section 1.01 shall include U.S. Treasury
Securities, as applicable, in the Final Trust Year.
9. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Standard Terms and
Conditions of Trust, the Sponsor may direct the Trustee to sell the U.S.
Treasury Securities before the sale of Bonds in the event that the cash balance
in the Interest and Principal Accounts are insufficient to provide for amounts
necessary to pay the fees and expenses of the Trust.
10. Section 3.03(a) of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust shall be
replaced in its entirety by the following:
"The Bonds in the Trust and all moneys (except moneys held by the
Trustee pursuant to subsection (b) and (c) hereof), other than amounts
credited to the Interest Account, received by the Trustee in respect
of the Bonds in the Trust, including insurance payments thereon, if
any, shall be credited to a separate account for each Trust to be
known as the "Principal Account."
11. The following shall be added to Section 3.03 of the Standard Terms and
Conditions of Trust immediately following Section 3.03(b):
"(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Standard Terms and
Condition of the Trust, as principal payments are received by the Trust in
the Final Trust Year, the proceeds will be temporarily invested by the
Trustee into U.S. Treasury Securities all maturing on or before the Trust's
Mandatory Termination Date. As a result, a one-time distribution of all
principal received during the Final Trust Year will be made on the
Mandatory Termination Date. Provided, however, that if at the time of
investment, the U.S. Treasury Securities do not bear a positive yield to
maturity, such principal payments received by the Trust during the Final
Trust Year will be held in cash until such time as U.S. Treasury Securities
bearing a positive yield to maturity, and which will mature on or before
the Trust's Mandatory Termination Date, may be purchased by the Trustee. If
an issuer prepays or calls a Bond in any calendar year prior to the Final
Trust Year, the Trust will distribute the principal to the Unitholders on
the next applicable Distribution Date. However, if such principal is
received after the last Record Date before the Final Trust Year, the
principal will be temporarily invested in U.S. Treasury Securities.
Proceeds received within 30 days of the Trust's Mandatory Termination Date
will not be invested in U.S. Treasury Securities."
12. The third paragraph following Section 3.05(f) of the Standard Terms and
Conditions of Trust shall be replaced in its entirety with the following:
"Distributions of amounts represented by the cash balance in the Principal
Account for a Trust shall be computed as of each Monthly Record Date. On
each Monthly Distribution Date, or within a reasonable period of time
thereafter, the Trustee shall distribute to each Unitholder of record of
such Trust at the close of business on the preceding Monthly Record Date
such Unitholder's pro rata share of the cash balance of the Principal
Account as thus computed. Prior to the Final Trust Year, the Trustee shall
not be required to make a distribution from the Principal Account unless
the cash balance on deposit therein available for distribution shall be
sufficient to distribute at least $5.00 per Unit. Funds in the Principal
Account will be distributed on the last Monthly Distribution Date of each
calendar year to Unitholders of record as of the preceding Monthly Record
Date if the amount available for distribution shall equal at least $1.00
per Unit.
However, in the Final Trust Year, there will be only a single distribution
of principal. To the extent the proceeds are not required for the
redemption of Units, or for the payment of Trust expenses, principal
payments received by the Trust in the final calendar year will be
temporarily invested into U.S. Treasury Securities which mature on or
before the Trust's Mandatory Termination Date. As a result, a one-time
distribution of all such principal received in the Final Trust Year will be
made on the Mandatory Termination Date."
13. The Depositor's annual compensation rate described in Section 3.15 and
the Supervisor's annual compensation rate described in Section 4.01 collectively
shall be that amount set forth under the section entitled "Summary of Essential
Financial Information--Expenses--Supervisory, bookkeeping and administrative
service fee" in the Prospectus for the Trust.
14. The fifth and sixth paragraphs of section 6.02 shall be replaced in their
entirety by the following:
"If the Depositor does not elect to purchase any Units of a Trust tendered
to the Trustee for redemption, or if Units are being tendered by the
Depositor for redemption, that portion of the Redemption Price which
represents interest shall be withdrawn from the Interest Account of such
Trust to the extent available. The balance paid on any redemption,
including accrued interest, if any, shall be withdrawn from the Principal
Account of such Trust to the extent that funds are available for such
purpose. If such available balance shall be insufficient, the Trustee shall
sell such of the Bonds held in such Trust, currently designated for such
purposes by the Supervisor, as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall
deem necessary. In the Final Trust Year, the Sponsor may direct the Trustee
to sell the U.S. Treasury Securities before the sale of Bonds in order to
satisfy redemptions. In the event that funds are withdrawn from the
Principal Account for payment of accrued interest, such Principal Account
shall be reimbursed for the funds so withdrawn when sufficient funds are
next available in the Interest Account.
The Supervisor, who may consult with the Depositor, shall designate the
Bonds held in each Trust to be sold for the purpose of redemption of Units
tendered for redemption and not purchased by the Depositor, and for payment
of expenses hereunder, provided that if the Supervisor shall for any reason
fail to designate Bonds, or in the Final Trust Year, U.S. Treasury
Securities, for such purpose the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may
designate Bonds for such purposes. The net proceeds of any sales of Bonds
or U.S. Treasury Securities, as applicable, representing principal shall be
credited to the Principal Account of the Trust and the proceeds of such
sales representing accrued interest shall be credited to the Interest
Account of the Trust."
15. The Trustee's annual compensation as set forth under Section 7.04 shall
be that amount set forth under the section entitled "Summary of Essential
Financial Information--Expenses--Trustee's Fee" in the Prospectus for the Trust.
16. The first paragraph of Section 9.02 of the Standard Terms and Conditions
of Trust shall be replaced in its entirety by the following:
"Termination. This Indenture and the Targeted Maturity Trust created hereby
shall terminate on the Mandatory Termination Date which is the earlier of
(i) the Mandatory Termination Date set forth in the prospectus of the Trust
or (ii) the maturity, redemption, sale or other disposition as the case may
be of the last Bond and the U.S. Treasury Securities held hereunder, unless
sooner terminated as hereinbefore specified, and may be terminated at any
time by the written consent of Unitholders representing 75% of the then
outstanding Units of such Trust; provided, that in no event shall a Trust
continue beyond the end of the calendar year preceding the fiftieth
anniversary of the execution of the related Trust Agreement."
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have caused this Trust Agreement to be
executed; all as of the day, month and year first above written.
