                                        I.

             Subject to the provisions of Part II hereof, all the provisions 
     contained in the Basic Agreement are herein incorporated by reference in

          tions to the Trustee to purchase one or more Additional Securities
          which cash (or cash in an amount equal to the face amount of the
          letter of credit), to the extent not used by the Trustee to purchase

          first deposit of Securities in the Trust, shall be distributed to
          Unit Holders on the Distribution Date next following such 90-day
          period or such earlier date as the Depositor and

                  tion, printing and execution of the Certificates, Indenture, 
                  Registration Statement and other documents relating to the 
                  Trust, Federal and State registration fees and costs, the     
                  initial fees and expenses of the Trustee, legal and auditing 
                  expenses and other out-of-pocket organizational expenses, to 
                  the extent not borne by the Sponsor, shall be paid by the     
                  Trust;" 

              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 Securi- 
          ties 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 obliga-
          tions 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

<PAGE>

                                        -3-

          receipt, the principal thereof and interest thereon (to the extent
          such interest is not used to pay Trust expenses) to be distributed on
          the  earlier of the 90th day after receipt or the next following
          Distribution Date." 

               E.   The first sentence of each of Sections 3.10, 3.11 and 3.12

               Section 3.13.  Extraordinary Event - Security Retention and Vot- 
          ing.  In the event the Trustee is notified of any action to be 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 securi-
          ties 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: 
          (9) "Deferred Sales Charge" shall mean any deferred sales charge pay- 
          able 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 para-  
          graph 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 De- 
          ferred Sales Charge payable on each such date as stated in the pro- 
          spectus for a Trust.  Such amount shall be withdrawn from the Princi- 
          pal Account from the amounts therein designated for such purpose. 

<PAGE>

                                        -4-



               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 De

          positor 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. 

                                         II.
