prospectuses (including preliminary prospectuses), the indenture and other
documents relating to the Trust, printing of Certificates, Securities and
Exchange Commission and state blue sky registration fees, the costs of the

calculating such accrual, the Trustee shall rely on the written estimates of
such expenses provided by the Depositor pursuant to Section 5.01. The
Depositor's submission to the Trustee for payment of an invoice or request for
reimbursement shall constitute the Depositor's certification, upon which the
Trustee shall conclusively rely, that the expenses claimed therein constitute
expenses properly borne by the Trust pursuant to applicable law and regulations.

Unitholders" shall be interpreted to apply only to such Unitholders.
Special Redemption and Liquidation Period
The dates specified in the Prospectus for the "Interim Special

Agent a broker in such transactions."

(d) The Depositor may employ agents in connection with its duties
under Section 3.11 and 3.13 hereof and shall not be answerable for the
default or misconduct of such agents if they shall have been selected with
reasonable care. The fees of such agents shall be reimbursable to the
Depositor from the Trust Fund, provided, however, that the amount of such
reimbursement in any year (i) shall reduce the amount payable to the
Depositor for such year with respect to the service in question and shall
not exceed the maximum amount payable to the Depositor for such service for
such year and (ii) if such agent is an affiliate of the Depositor, the
amount of the reimbursement, when combined with (a) all compensation
received by such agent from other series of the Fund or other unit
investment trusts sponsored by the Depositor or its affiliates and (b) the
amount payable to the Depositor from the Trust Fund and from other series
