respect to any matter relating to the Securities), the Trustee shall

Trustee under the provisions of Section 7.04 herein. To the extent of such
lien, the Trustee shall hold the assets of the Trust for the benefit of the
Depositor, provided that the Trustee is authorized to make dispositions,
distributions and payments for expenses in the ordinary course of the

rata basis among all Securities held by the Trust.
33. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Standard Terms and
Conditions of Trust, no Unitholder may request a distribution of Securities in-
kind pursuant to Sections 6.02, 6.05 or 9.02 during the 30 days prior to and

Redeeming Unitholder, the Trustee may exclude Discretionary Assets (as defined

consent of any of the Unitholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct or
supplement any provision contained herein which may be defective or inconsistent
with any other provision contained herein, (ii) to make such other provision in

RIC, or (b) to prevent the Trust from being deemed an association taxable as a
corporation for federal income tax purposes if the Trust is a Grantor

Section 9.01(a) hereof, neither the parties hereto nor their respective
successors shall consent to any other amendment, change or modification of this
Indenture without the giving of notice and the obtaining of the approval or
consent of Unitholders representing at least 66 2/3% of the Units then
outstanding of the affected Trust. Nothing contained in this Section 9.01(b)
shall permit, or be construed as permitting, a reduction of the aggregate
percentage of Units the holders of which are required to consent to any
amendment, change or modification of this Indenture without the consent of the
Unitholders of all of the Units then outstanding of the affected Trust and in no
event may any amendment be made which would (1) alter the rights to the
Unitholders as against each other, (2) provide the Trustee with the power to
engage in business or investment activities other than as specifically provided
in this Indenture, (3) adversely affect the tax status of the Trust for federal
income tax purposes or result in the Units being deemed to be sold or exchanged
for federal income tax purposes or (4) unless the Trust is a RIC, result in a
variation of the investment of Unitholders in the Trust.
(c) Unless the Depositor directs that other notice shall be provided, the
Trustee shall include in the annual report provided pursuant to Section 3.06
notification of the substance of such amendment."
