"Depositor"), and The Bank of New York, a New York banking

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
Pursuant to the Base Trust Agreement dated as of
August 28, 1997, as amended by Base Amendment No.1 dated as of
February 27, 1998 (together, the "Base Trust Agreement" and, as
amended and supplemented pursuant to this Series Supplement, the
"Agreement"), among the Depositor and the Trustee, such parties
may at any time and from time to time enter into a series
supplement supplemental to the Base Trust Agreement for the
purpose of creating a trust. Section 5.13 of the Base Trust
Agreement provides that the Depositor may at any time and from
time to time direct the Trustee to authenticate and deliver, on
behalf of any such trust, a new series of trust certificates.
Each trust certificate of such new series of trust certificates
will represent a fractional undivided beneficial interest in such
trust. Certain terms and conditions applicable to each such
series are to be set forth in the related series supplement to
the Agreement.
Pursuant to this Series Supplement, the Depositor and
the Trustee shall create and establish a new trust to be known as
Receipts on Corporate Securities Trust, Series BNSF 1998-1 (the
"Trust"), and a new Series of trust certificates to be issued
thereby, which certificates shall be known as the Receipts on
Corporate Securities, Series BNSF 1998-1 (the "Certificates"),
and the Depositor and the Trustee shall herein specify certain
terms and conditions in respect thereof.
The Certificates shall be issued in two Classes
consisting of (a) the Amortizing Class Certificates (the
"Amortizing Class Certificates") and (b) the Residual Class
Certificates (the "Residual Class Certificates"), subject to
Section 5.16 of the Base Trust Agreement.
On behalf of and pursuant to the authorizing
resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Depositor, an
authorized officer of the Depositor has authorized the execution,
authentication and delivery of the Certificates, and has
authorized the Base Trust Agreement and this Series Supplement in
accordance with the terms of Section 5.13 of the Base Trust
Agreement.
SECTION 1. Certain Defined Terms. (a) All terms used
in this Series Supplement that are defined in the Base Trust

contains rules as to usage which shall be applicable hereto.
(b) Pursuant to Article I of the Base Trust Agreement,
the meaning of certain defined terms used in the Base Trust
Agreement shall, when applied to the trust certificates of a

OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM THE
REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE
WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED
STATES OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.
Each Certificate shall bear the following legend;

Certificates of a Class upon such time, if any, as the Depositor
has furnished a Depositor Order pursuant to Section 7(c) hereof:
THE TRUST HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED AS AN INVESTMENT

SECTION 6. Currency of the Certificates. All

SECTION 7. Certain Provisions Regarding Transfer and
Exchange. (a) In the event that the Depositor delivers to the
Trustee a copy of an Officers' Certificate certifying that an
Exchange Offer Registration Statement has been declared effective
by the Commission and that the Trust has offered Exchange
Certificates of a Class to the Holders of the related Class of
Initial Certificates in accordance with the Exchange Offer, the
Trustee shall exchange, upon request of any such Holder, such
Holder's Initial Certificates for Exchange Certificates of the
related Class upon the terms set forth in the Exchange Offer and
in accordance with Section 4(c) hereof, provided that the Initial
Certificates so surrendered for exchange are duly endorsed and
accompanied by a letter of transmittal or written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee, in addition to any
certifications and representations required by the provisions of
the Registration Rights Agreement, and duly executed by the
Holder thereof or such Holder's attorney who shall be duly
authorized in writing to execute such document on the behalf of
such Holder.
The Trustee shall not be required (i) to issue,
register the transfer of or exchange any Certificate during the
period of 15 days ending on (and including) any Distribution
Date.
6
(b) Upon receipt of a Depositor Request to the effect that
specified Initial Certificates of a Class (the "Registered
Certificates") have been registered under the Securities Act, if
Initial Certificates of such Class are issued upon the transfer,
exchange or replacement of the Registered Certificates, or if a
request is made to remove such Private Placement Legend on the
Registered Certificates, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate
and deliver Initial Certificates of such Class that do not bear
the Private Placement Legend.
(c) In connection with each transfer of a Certificate,
the transferee will be required to complete the certification
annexed to such Certificate unless the Depositor has furnished a
Depositor Order to the effect that such transfer form is no
longer required to assure compliance with Rule 3a-7.
(d) In connection with each transfer of a Residual
Class Certificate, the transferee will be required to deliver to
the Trustee a certification upon purchase of such Certificate to
the effect that the beneficial owner thereof (whether such
registered holder or the ultimate beneficiary for whom it holds
such Certificate) is either (i) a United States person, or (ii) a
non-United States person who is exempt from withholding under
U.S. federal income tax laws and has completed, accurately and in
a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee or its agent, an
appropriate statement (generally on IRS Form W-8), signed under
penalties of perjury, identifying the beneficial owner and
stating that the beneficial owner is not a United States person
(or, after December 31, 1999, has satisfied applicable
documentary evidence requirements for establishing that it is not
a United States person) and delivered such statement (or
documentary evidence) to the Trustee or its agent.
Such transferee will be deemed to have represented and
agreed with the Trustee that so long as it is the registered
holder of such Certificate, the beneficial owner thereof will be
a person described in clauses (i) or (ii) above and, in the event
of any change in the identity of the beneficial owner for whom
such registered holder is acting or any lapse of a Form W-8 (or
documentary evidence) previously delivered to the Trustee, the
registered holder will promptly deliver a new certification or a
current Form W-8 (or documentary evidence), as applicable. In the
event such representation is untrue or such current forms (or
documentary evidence) are not so furnished, the Certificate held
by such registered holder will be subject to mandatory resale as
described below.
If a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge or
reason to know that the certification or deemed representation
made by such registered holder is incorrect or if such registered
holder does not provide the current Form W-8 (or documentary
evidence) as described above within ten days after the prior such
Form (or documentary evidence) has lapsed, then, the Trustee will
furnish a notice to such registered holder stating that (i) such
registered holder must, within 30 calendar days from the date of
such notice, effect the registration of transfer of its Residual
Class Certificate to a person that certifies that the beneficial
owner of the Certificate is a U.S. person or exempt from U.S.
withholding tax as described above and (ii) if such transfer does
not occur by the thirtieth day, the Holder will be deemed
irrevocably to have appointed Prudential Securities Incorporated
or Prudential-Bache Securities (U.K.) Inc. (either a "Broker") as
its broker to sell such Holder's Certificate on its behalf to a
qualified purchaser at a fair market price (net of customary
brokerage commissions) within the next succeeding five Business
Days. For purposes of effectuating such sale pursuant to clause
(ii) of the preceding sentence, the Trustee is hereby irrevocably
appointed the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Holder to, and
shall, (a) instruct the broker to effect the foregoing sale, (b)
receive from the broker the net proceeds from such sale for the
account of the Holder and (c) deliver to or upon the order of the
broker a new Certificate issued in exchange for the Certificate
of the Holder sold by the broker (whereupon the Holder's
Certificate will be deemed to have been surrendered and canceled
and cease to be outstanding for any purpose hereunder or entitled
to any rights or benefits hereunder). The Trustee shall pay to
the Holder, within five Business Days of receipt thereof from the
broker, the net proceeds of such sale, such payment to be made in
the same manner as such Holder received its most recent payment
on the Certificate. Each Holder, by its acceptance of a
Certificate, hereby consents to and agrees with the provisions of
this Section 7.
SECTION 8. Certificateholder Exchange Right. Any
Holder of both Amortizing Class Certificates and Residual Class
Certificates may, by delivery of a notice to the Trustee
substantially in the form of the Notice of Exchange attached to a
Certificate (a "Notice of Exchange") not less than 30 and not
more than 45 days prior to any Scheduled Distribution Date other
than August 1, 2017, elect to exchange Certificates of both
Classes for Term Assets on such Scheduled Distribution Date (the
"Exchange Date") in accordance with this Section. In order to
exercise such right, the holder shall tender to the Trustee on
the Exchange Date immediately
7
succeeding such notice both (a) Amortizing Class Certificates
evidencing the percentage specified in the Notice of Exchange
(which shall not be less than 10%) of the Aggregate Certificate
Principal Balance of all Amortizing Class Certificates then
outstanding and (b) Residual Class Certificates evidencing the
same percentage of the Aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of
all Residual Class Certificates then outstanding as is
represented by the Amortizing Class Certificates tendered
pursuant to clause (a).
Upon tender of such Certificates, duly endorsed by the
Holder to the Trustee, the Trustee shall transfer to the Holder
(or its designee specified in the Notice of Exchange) a principal
amount of Term Assets comprising the same percentage of the Term
Assets then held in the Trust as the percentage of Amortizing
Class Certificates and Residual Class Certificates tendered by
such Holder on such Scheduled Distribution Date, rounded down to
the nearest authorized denomination of Term Assets. Upon such
exchange, the Trustee shall cancel the tendered Certificates,
provided that if the amount of Term Assets delivered to the
Holder or its designee was rounded down in accordance with the
preceding sentence, the Trustee shall issue to such Holder new
Certificates of each Class evidencing percentage interests of
such Class (regardless of whether such interests would otherwise
be authorized denominations) equal to the amount of such Class in
excess of the amount accepted for such exchange.
The delivery of a Notice of Exchange pursuant to this
Section shall be irrevocable; provided, however, that if (i) the
proceeds of an Optional Redemption, Shortened Maturity Redemption
or In-Kind Distribution are to be distributed on the Exchange
Date to which such Notice of Exchange relates or (ii) if prior to
such Exchange Date, the Trustee gives notice to Holders that the
proceeds of an Optional Redemption, Shortened Maturity Redemption
or In-Kind Distribution are scheduled to be distributed on a date
subsequent to such Exchange Date, such Notice of Exchange shall
be automatically deemed canceled and be of no further force and
effect.
Any Holder tendering Certificates in exchange for Term
Assets on an Exchange Date pursuant to this Section shall be
entitled to receive cash distributions otherwise payable on such
Certificates on such Exchange Date pursuant to Section 9(a).
SECTION 9. Distributions. (a) Not later than each
Scheduled Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute to the
Holders of the Amortizing Class Certificates, to the extent of
Interest Collections constituting Available Funds, an amount
equal to the Fixed Payment plus any Excess Interest. Each Fixed
Payment shall be allocated first to interest accrued during the
related Interest Accrual Period at a rate equal to the Amortizing
Class Yield on the then outstanding Aggregate Certificate
Principal Balance of the Amortizing Class Certificates, with the
balance of such Fixed Payment allocated to the repayment of
principal in accordance with the amortization schedule attached
hereto as Schedule 2 (the "Amortization Schedule"). Any Excess
Interest shall be allocated as additional interest and shall not
be taken into account in the allocation of the Fixed Payment. In
the event of a Partial Optional Redemption or an exchange of
Certificates for Term Assets pursuant to Section 8, the Fixed
Payment to the holders of the Amortizing Class Certificates will
be reduced, effective on the next Scheduled Distribution Date,
pro rata with the reduction of the Term Assets, and the Trustee
shall thereafter adjust the Amortization Schedule on the basis of
the new Aggregate Certificate Principal Balances following the
Optional Redemption Date.
In the event that any Interest Collections are
received by the Trustee after a Scheduled Distribution Date and
prior to the final distribution with respect to the Amortizing
Class Certificate, the Trustee will distribute such Interest
Collections to the holders of the Amortizing Class Certificates
as soon as practicable after receipt.
(b) On August 1, 2017, the Trustee shall distribute
the remaining Term Assets in kind to the Residual Class
Certificateholders; provided that if payment to the Amortizing
Class Certificateholders with respect to the Term Assets due on
August 1, 2017 is not made by BNSF on such date, the Term Assets
will not be distributed to the holders of the Residual Class
Certificates until such payment is made by BNSF or the Trustee
makes an In-Kind Distribution to Certificateholders in accordance
with this Agreement.
(c) In the event of an Optional Redemption on or prior
to August 1, 2017, the Certificates will be redeemed on the
Optional Redemption Date. Such redemption shall be a redemption
of the Certificates as a whole if the Optional Redemption is
redemption of the Term Assets as a whole, and shall be a
redemption of the
8
Certificates in part, as described in the next subsection, if the
Optional Redemption is a Partial Optional Redemption. In such
event, the Trustee will distribute the aggregate redemption price
received on the Term Assets on the Optional Redemption Date to
the holders of the Amortizing Class Certificates and the Residual
Class Certificates, respectively, on the basis of the
Distribution Ratio. Such ratio will be calculated by the
Calculation Agent.
(d) In the event of a Partial Optional Redemption, the
distribution of the portion of the redemption price allocable to
a particular Class of Certificates pursuant to the preceding
subsection shall be made on a pro rata basis among all
Certificateholders of such Class. Amounts so allocated to the
Amortizing Class Certificates shall be allocated first to
interest accrued since the start of the most recent Interest
Accrual Period at a rate equal to the Amortizing Class Yield on
the then outstanding Certificate Principal Balance of the
Amortizing Class Certificates, with the balance of such
distribution allocated to the repayment of principal. At the
close of business on the applicable Optional Redemption Date, the
respective Certificate Principal Balances of the Certificates
shall be reduced in accordance with definition of the term
"Certificate Principal Balance."
(e) In the event of a Shortened Maturity Redemption on
or prior to August 1, 2017, the Certificates shall be redeemed as
a whole on the Shortened Maturity Date. In such event, the
Trustee will distribute the aggregate redemption price received
on the Term Assets on the Shortened Maturity Date to the holders
of the Amortizing Class Certificates and the Residual Class
Certificates, respectively, on the basis of the Distribution
Ratio. Such ratio will be calculated by the Calculation Agent.
(f) Upon a Payment Default or an Acceleration of the
Term Assets under the Indenture on or before August 1, 2017, the
Trustee will make an In-Kind Distribution of the remaining Term
Assets, pursuant to Section 3.6 of the Agreement, to the holders
of the Amortizing Class Certificates and the Residual Class
Certificates. The Trustee will distribute the Term Assets and any
proceeds from liquidation thereof made pursuant to Section 3.6(b)
to the holders of the Amortizing Class Certificates and Residual
Class Certificates, respectively, on the basis of the
Distribution Ratio as of the date of such Payment Default or
Acceleration. Such ratio will be calculated by the Calculation
Agent.
(g) Distributions of any Purchase Price pursuant to
Section 2.5 of the Agreement shall be distributed in the same
ratio set forth in subsection (c) above discounted to the date on
which the Purchase Price is distributed. Such distribution shall
be made fifteen days after receipt of the Purchase Price.
(h) Distributions to the Certificateholders on each
Distribution Date will be made to the Certificateholders of
record on the related Record Date of the Amortizing Class
Certificates and Residual Class Certificates, as applicable.
(i) All distributions to Certificateholders of any
Class shall be allocated pro rata among the Certificates of such
Class, based on the respective Certificate Principal Balances as
of the Record Date with respect to such Distribution Date.
(j) Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement to
the contrary, to the extent funds are available, the Trustee will
initiate payment in immediately available funds by 10:00 A.M.
(New York City time) on each Distribution Date of all amounts
payable to each Certificateholder with respect to any Certificate
held by such Certificateholder or its nominee (without the
necessity for any presentation or surrender thereof or any
notation of such payment thereon) in the manner and at the
address as each Certificateholder may from time to time direct
the Trustee in writing fifteen days prior to such Distribution
Date requesting that such payment will be so made and designating
the bank account to which such payments shall be so made. The
Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the last instruction
delivered by the Certificateholder pursuant to this Section 9(j)
unless a new instruction is delivered 15 days prior to a
Distribution Date.
(k) The rights of the Certificateholders to receive
distributions in respect of the Certificates, and all interests
of the Certificateholders in such distributions, shall be as set
forth in this Series Supplement. The Trustee shall in no way be
responsible or liable to the Certificateholders nor shall any
Certificateholder in any way
9
be responsible or liable to any other Certificateholder in
respect of amounts previously distributed on the Certificates
based on their respective Certificate Principal Balances.
(l) The Trustee shall furnish notice to
Certificateholders as soon as practicable after a Responsible
Officer learns of a situation giving rise to a distribution under
subsections (c), (d) or (e) hereof.
SECTION 10. Termination of Trust. (a) The Trust shall
terminate upon the occurrence of any Trust Termination Event and
the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts or property
required to be distributed to them and the disposition of all
Term Assets held by the Trustee.
(b) Promptly after the Trustee has received a notice
from the Term Assets Trustee or BNSF of an Optional Redemption
other than a Partial Optional Redemption, a Shortened Maturity
Redemption, a Payment Default or an Acceleration of the Term
Assets, the Trustee shall provide notice to the
Certificateholders of the expected occurrence of a Trust
Termination Event and the termination of the Trust.
(c) The obligations of the Trustee will thereupon
terminate, except for the making of final distributions to
Certificateholders and the furnishing of any reports and other
information required to be provided to Certificateholders

activities not authorized herein and, in particular,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, the

amended for purposes of this Series Supplement and the

below, the property of which consists of $75,000,000 aggregate
principal amount of 7.25% Debentures due August 1, 2097 (the
"Term Assets") issued by Burlington Northern Santa Fe
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("BNSF"), and deposited in
the Trust by the Depositor, as defined below. The Term Assets
were purchased by the Trust from Prudential Securities Structured
Assets, Inc. (the "Depositor") in exchange for the transfer of
the Certificates to the Depositor by the Trust.
THIS CERTIFIES THAT [ ] is the registered owner of a
nonassessable, fully-paid, fractional undivided interest in
Receipts on Corporate Securities Trust, Series BNSF 1998-1 formed
by the Depositor. Under the Trust Agreement, except upon or after
the occurrence of an Optional Redemption, a Shortened Maturity
Redemption or an In-Kind Distribution, there will be distributed
to the Holders of the Amortizing Class Certificates an amount
equal to the Fixed Payment plus any Excess Interest on the first
day of each February and August, or, if any such day is not a
Business Day and a Term Assets Scheduled Payment Date, then the
Business Day on or immediately following the Term Assets
Scheduled Payment Date, commencing August 1, 1998 through and
including August 1, 2017; provided that payment on each Scheduled
Distribution Date shall be subject to receipt of the
corresponding payment of interest or principal, as applicable, on
the Term Assets. Each Fixed Payment shall be allocated first to
interest accrued during the related Interest Accrual Period at a
rate equal to the Amortizing Class Yield on the then outstanding
Aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Amortizing Class
Certificates, with the balance of such Fixed Payment allocated to
the repayment of principal in accordance with the amortization
schedule attached to the Series Supplement as Schedule 2 (the
"Amortization Schedule"). Any Excess Interest shall be allocated
as additional interest and shall not be taken into account in the
allocation of the Fixed Payment. In the event of a Partial
Optional Redemption or an exchange of Certificates for Term
Assets pursuant to Section 8 of the Series Supplement referred to
below, the Fixed Payment to the holders of the Amortizing Class
Certificates and the Certificate Principal Balance of this
Certificate will be reduced in accordance with the Trust
Agreement. In the event of an Optional Redemption or a Shortened
Maturity Redemption, the Trustee will distribute the payments
received on the Term Assets on the Optional Redemption Date or
the Shortened Maturity Date, as applicable, to the holders of the
Amortizing Class Certificates and holders of the Residual Class
Certificates, respectively, in the same ratio as (i) the present
value of all originally scheduled future payments on the
Amortizing Class Certificates bears to (ii) the present value of
all originally scheduled future payments on the Term Assets after
August 1, 2017, discounted semiannually in each case at a rate of
7.25% per annum (such ratio being the "Distribution Ratio") to
the Optional Redemption Date or Shortened Maturity Date, as
applicable. Such amounts will be calculated by the Calculation
Agent. In the event of an In-Kind Distribution pursuant to
Section 3.6 of the Base Trust Agreement, the Trustee shall make
such In-Kind Distribution to the Holders of the Amortizing Class
Certificates and the Holders of the Residual Class Certificates,
respectively, on the basis of the Distribution Ratio to the date
on which the Payment Default or Acceleration of the Term Assets
occurred. Such ratio shall be calculated by the Calculation
Agent.
The Trust was created pursuant to a Base Trust
Agreement dated as of August 28, 1997, as amended by Base
Amendment No. 1 dated as of February 27, 1988 (together, the
"Base Trust Agreement"), between the Depositor and The Bank of
New York, a New York banking corporation, not in its individual
capacity but solely as Trustee (the "Trustee"), as supplemented
by the Series BNSF 1998-1 Supplement dated as of April 13, 1998
(the "Series Supplement" and, together with the Base Trust
Agreement, the "Trust Agreement"), between the Depositor and the
Trustee. This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Trust
Agreement and reference is hereby made to the Trust Agreement for
information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits,
obligations, proceeds and duties evidenced hereby and the rights,
duties and obligations of the Trustee with respect hereto. A
A-2
copy of the Trust Agreement may be obtained from the Trustee by
written request sent to the Corporate Trust Office. Capitalized
terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to
them in the Trust Agreement.
This Certificate is one of the duly authorized
Certificates designated as "Receipts on Corporate Securities,
Series BNSF 1998-1, Amortizing Class Certificates" (herein called
the "Amortizing Class Certificates"). The Trust is also issuing
certificates designated as "Receipts on Corporate Securities,
Series BNSF 1998-1, Residual Class Certificates" (hereinafter
called the "Residual Class Certificates" and together with the
Amortizing Class Certificates, the "Certificates") pursuant to
the Trust Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is
subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Trust
Agreement, to which Trust Agreement the Holder of this
Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by
which such Holder is bound. The property of the Trust consists of
the Term Assets and all payments on or collections in respect of
the Term Assets accrued on or after the Closing Date, all as more
fully specified in the Trust Agreement.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Trust
Agreement (including the availability of funds for distribution)
and until the obligation created by the Trust Agreement shall
have terminated in accordance therewith, distributions will be
made on each Distribution Date to the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered on the applicable Record Date. The
Record Date applicable to any Distribution Date is the 15th day
immediately preceding such Distribution Date.
Distributions made on this Certificate will be made as
provided in the Trust Agreement by the Trustee by wire transfer
or credit to the appropriate account of the Holder in immediately
available funds, without the presentation or surrender of this
Certificate or the making of any notation hereon. Except as
otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement and notwithstanding the
above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made
after due notice by the Trustee of the tendency of such
distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this
Certificate at the office or agency maintained for that purpose
by the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York.
Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of
this Certificate set forth on the reverse hereof, which further
provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set
forth at this place.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has
been executed by or on behalf of the Trustee, by manual
signature, this Certificate shall not entitle the holder hereof
to any benefit under the Trust Agreement or be valid for any
purpose.
It is the intent of the Depositor and the
Certificateholders that, for purposes of federal income, state
and local income and franchise taxes and any other taxes imposed
upon, measured by or based upon gross or net income, the Trust
shall be treated as a grantor trust or, failing that, as a
partnership that is not treated as an association (or publicly
traded partnership) taxable as a corporation, and the Trust
Agreement shall be interpreted accordingly. Except as otherwise
required by appropriate taxing authorities, the Depositor and the
other Certificateholders by acceptance of a Certificate, agree to
treat, the Certificates for such tax purposes as interests in
such grantor trust. It is also the intent of the Depositor and
the Certificateholders that the Trust be excluded from the
application of the rules of subchapter K of the Code in the event
that the Internal Revenue Service successfully recharacterizes
the Trust as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, and
that a protective election pursuant to Treasury Regulation
Section 1.761-2 be made as of the date of formation of the Trust.

below, the property of which consists of $75,000,000 aggregate
principal amount of 7.25% Debentures due August 1, 2097 (the
"Term Assets") issued by Burlington Northern Santa Fe
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("BNSF"), and deposited in
the Trust by the Depositor, as defined below. The Term Assets
were purchased by the Trust from Prudential Securities Structured
Assets, Inc. (the "Depositor") in exchange for the transfer of

THIS CERTIFIES THAT [ ] is the registered owner of a
nonassessable, fully-paid, fractional undivided interest in
Receipts on Corporate Securities Trust, Series BNSF 1998-1 formed
by the Depositor. Under the Trust Agreement, this Certificate
will be terminated and deemed involuntarily surrendered by the
holder hereof in exchange for a principal amount of the Term Assets
underlying this Certificate equal to the Certificate Principal
Balance hereof on August 1, 2017, unless an Optional Redemption,
a Shortened Maturity Redemption or an In-Kind Distribution (as
such terms are defined in the Trust Agreement) has occurred on or
prior to such date; provided that if payment to the Amortizing
Class Certificateholders with respect to the Term Assets due on

future payments on the Term Assets after August 1, 2017,
discounted semiannually in each case at a rate of 7.25% per annum

Redemption Date or Shortened Maturity Date, as applicable. Such
amounts will be calculated by the Calculation Agent. In the event
of an In-Kind Distribution pursuant to Section 3.6 of the Base
Trust Agreement, the Trustee shall make such In-Kind Distribution
to the Holders of the Amortizing Class Certificates and the
Holders of the Residual Class Certificates, respectively, on the
basis of the Distribution Ratio to the date on which the Payment
Default or Acceleration of the Term Assets occurred. Such ratio
shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent. In the Event of a
Partial Optional Redemption, the Certificate will be reduced in
accordance with the Trust Agreeement.

Agreement dated as of August 28, 1997, as amended by Base
Amendment No. 1 dated as of February 27, 1988 (together, the

capacity but solely as Trustee (the "Trustee"), as supplemented

Agreement, the "Trust Agreement"), between the Depositor and the
Trustee. This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Trust
Agreement and reference is hereby made to the Trust Agreement for
information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits,
obligations, proceeds and duties evidenced hereby and the rights,
duties and obligations of the Trustee with respect hereto. A copy

shall be treated as a grantor trust or, failing that, as a
partnership that is not treated as an association (or publicly
traded partnership) taxable as a corporation or a public traded
partnership, and the Trust Agreement shall be interpreted
accordingly. Except as otherwise required by appropriate taxing
authorities, the Depositor and the other Certificateholders by
acceptance of a Certificate, agree to treat, the Certificates for
such tax purposes as interests in such grantor trust. It is also

federal income tax purposes, and that a protective election
pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.761-2 be made as of the
date of formation of the Trust.
