reimbursable to the Depositor provided below, be borne by the
Unit Holders, provided, however, that, to the extent all of such
costs are not borne by Unit Holders, the amount of such costs not
borne by Unit Holders shall be borne by the Depositor and,
provided further, however, that the liability on the part of the
Depositor under this section shall not include any fees or other
expenses incurred in connection with the administration of the
Trust subsequent to the deposit referred to in Section 2.01. Upon
notification from the Depositor that the primary offering period
is concluded, the Trustee shall withdraw from the Account or

specified, from the Principal Account, and pay to the Depositor
the Depositor's reimbursable expenses of organizing the Trust and
sale of the Trust Units in an amount certified to the Trustee by

directed by the Depositor, sell Securities identified by the
Depositor, or distribute to the Depositor Securities having a
value, as determined under Section 4.01 as of the date of

incurred in the preparation and printing of brochures and other
advertising materials and any other selling expenses. Any cash
which the Depositor has identified as to be used for
reimbursement of expenses pursuant to this Section shall be
reserved by the Trustee for such purpose and shall not be subject
to distribution or, unless the Depositor otherwise directs, used
for payment of redemptions in excess of the per-Unit amount
allocable to Units tendered for redemption.
D. The third paragraph of Section 3.05 is hereby amended to
add the following sentence after the first sentence thereof:
"Depositor may direct the Trustee to invest the proceeds of any
sale of Securities not required for the redemption of Units in
eligible money market instruments selected by the Depositor which
will include only negotiable certificates of deposit or time
deposits of domestic banks which are members of the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation and which have, together with their
branches or subsidiaries, more than $2 billion in total assets,
except that certificates of deposit or time deposits of smaller
domestic banks may be held provided the deposit does not exceed
the insurance coverage on the instrument (which currently is
$100,000), and provided further that the Trust's aggregate
holding of certificates of deposit or time deposits issued by the
Trustee may not exceed the insurance coverage of such obligations
and U.S. Treasury notes or bills (which shall be held until the
maturity thereof) each of which matures prior to the earlier of
the next following Distribution Date or 90 days after

taken or proposed to be taken by holders of the securities held
by the Trust in connection with any proposed merger,
reorganization, 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 insure that the securities are voted as closely as possible
in the same manner and in the same general proportion as are the
securities 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 securities 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.
G. Section 1.01 is amended to add the following definition:

payable in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.12 hereof,
as set forth in the prospectus for a Trust. Definitions following
this definition (9) shall be renumbered.
H. Section 3.05 is hereby amended to add the following
paragraph 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 3.12 the amount
of the Deferred Sales Charge payable on each such date as stated
in the prospectus for a Trust. Such amount shall be withdrawn
from the Principal 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 3.12 shall be added as follows:
Section 3.12. 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,
withdraw 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 Account, 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
distributed to the Depositor. If the Income Account is not
designated as the source of the Deferred Sales Charge payment or
if the balances 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 reimbursement of such advance upon the deposit of
additional monies in the Income Account or the Principal Account,
sell Securities 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 Trustee 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 Redemption 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.

replaced by "Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxx Select Equity Trust".
