such earlier date as the Depositor and the Trustee deter-
mine".
B. The first sentence of Section 2.06 is amended to
add the following language after "Securities"))": "and/or
cash (or a letter of credit in lieu of cash) with instruc-
<PAGE>
tions to the Trustee to purchase one or more Additional

tence thereof: "Depositor may direct the Trustee to in-

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 depos-
its of smaller domestic banks may be held provided the de-
posit does not exceed the insurance coverage on the in-
strument (which currently is $100,000), and provided fur-
ther that the Trust's aggregate holding of certificates of
deposit or time deposits issued by the Trustee may not ex-
ceed the insurance coverage of such obligations and U.S.

turity thereof) each of which matures prior to the earlier

E. The first sentence of each of Sections 3.10,
3.11 and 3.12 is amended to insert the following language
at the beginning of such sentence, "Except as otherwise
provided in Section 3.13,".
F. The following new Section 3.13 is added:
Section 3.13. Extraordinary Event - Security Reten-
tion and Voting. 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 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 De-
positor 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 payable in accordance with the pro-
visions of Section 3.12 hereof, as set forth in the pro-
spectus for a Trust. Definitions following this defini-
tion (9) shall be renumbered.
H. Section 3.05 is hereby amended to add the fol-
lowing 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 pursu-
ant to Section 3.12 the amount of the Deferred Sales
Charge payable on each such date as stated in the prospec-
tus for a Trust. Such amount shall be withdrawn from the
Principal Account from the amounts therein designated for
such purpose.
<PAGE>
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 fol-
lowing 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 pro-
spectus for a Trust.
K. Section 3.12 shall be added as follows:
Section 3.12. Deferred Sales Charge. If the pro-
spectus 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 Ac-
counts are insufficient to make any such withdrawal, the
Trustee shall, as directed by the Depositor, either ad-
vance funds, if so agreed to by the Trustee, in an amount
equal to the proposed withdrawal and be entitled to reim-
bursement 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 dis-
tributed in kind and shall contain, if the Trustee is di-
rected 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
