INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE.   The Trusts seek to maximize total return through capital
appreciation. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of the Trusts 
will be achieved.

STRATEGY  OF  PORTFOLIO  SELECTION.  The  Industrial  Trust seeks to achieve its
investment objective by investing in a fixed portfolio of the 25 best performing
stocks on the S&P 500  Index,  as  measured  by price  appreciation,  during the
twelve-month  period ending December 31, 1998.  This strategy  involves a 4-step
selection process:

           Step 1:   Calculate the price appreciation for each company listed
                     on the S&P 500  Index  over  the 12-  month  period  ending
                     December 31, 1998.

           Step 2:   Select  the  25  stocks  which  have  the  greatest   price
                     appreciation.

           Step 3:   [Eliminate non-ordinary common shares (including preferred 
                     securities, rights and warrants) and foreign issues (except
                     American Depository Receipts).]

           Step 4:   Of the 25 stocks  selected  for the  Trust,  weigh the 
                     stocks equally.

The Technology Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in a
fixed portfolio of 18 stocks,  comprised primarily of technology companies which
have  had  both  high  trading  volume  and  price   appreciation,   during  the
twelve-month  period  ending  December 31, 1998.  This  strategy also involves a
4-step selection process:

           Step 1:   Calculate the number of shares  traded daily,  for each
                     company  listed on the Nasdaq and the NYSE, on each day the
                     Nasdaq and the NYSE were open over the twelve-month  period
                     ending December 31, 1998.

           Step 2:   Identify:  (i) the 12 stocks which have had the highest
                     number  of  shares   traded  on  the   Nasdaq   during  the
                     twelve-month period ending December 31, 1998 and from those
                     12  stocks   select  the   stocks   which  have  had  price
                     appreciation of 40% or greater during the same period; and

                     (ii) the 40 stocks  which had the highest  number of shares
                     traded on the NYSE during the  twelve-month  period  ending
                     December  31, 1998 and select the  technology  stocks which
                     have had price  appreciation  of 40% or greater  during the
                     same period.

           Step 3:   [Eliminate non-ordinary common shares (including preferred 
                     securities, rights and warrants) and foreign issues (except
                     American Depository Receipts).]

           Step 4:   Of the 18 stocks selected for the Trust, weigh the stocks 
                     in the following manner:

                     o    10% in each of the first two companies to rank in the 
                          top half of both the volume and price categories;

                     o    6.0% in each of the four companies that ranked highest
                          in the trading volume category and 6.0% in each of the
                          four  companies  that  ranked  highest  in  the  price
                          appreciation category,  excluding any company that was
                          already selected and received a 10% weighting; and

                     o    4.0% in each of the remaining companies.

The  volume of shares  traded  daily on the Nasdaq  (and NYSE) does not  include
shares  represented by options trading.  The inclusion of shares  represented by
options may have  provided  different  results and  therefore  the  selection of
stocks for inclusion in the Trusts may have differed.

Software,       %; Electronic-Semiconducters,      %;  Equipment-Semiconductors,
   %; and Telephone-Long distance,      %.  The Trust  is concentrated  in  the 
[computer technology] industry.

A trust is considered to be "concentrated" in a particular  category or industry
when the securities in that category or that industry  constitute 25% or more of
the total assets of the portfolio.

RISK CONSIDERATIONS.   Unitholders can  lose money by investing  in  the Trusts.
The value of the Units  and  the Securities in the Trusts can  each  decline in 
value. An investment in Units of the Trusts should be made with an understanding
of the following risks:

        o    An investment in common stocks includes the risk that the financial
             condition of the issuers of the Securities  may become  impaired or
             that the general  condition of the stock market may worsen (both of
             which may  contribute  directly  to a decrease  in the value of the
             Securities and thus in the value of the Units).

        o    Since the portfolios of the Trusts are fixed and "not managed",  in
             general,  the  Sponsors  can sell  Securities  only at the  Trusts'
             termination or in order to meet redemptions. As a result, the price
             at which  each  Security  is sold may not be the  highest  price it
             attained during the life of the Trusts.

        o    When cash or a letter of credit is deposited with  instructions  to
             purchase  securities  in  order  to  create  additional  Units,  an
             increase in the price of a particular  security between the time of
             deposit and the time that  securities  are purchased will cause the
             Units  to be  comprised  of less of that  security  and more of the
             remaining  securities.  In  addition,  brokerage  fees  incurred in
             purchasing the Securities will be an expense of the Trusts.

        o    Securities  price  fluctuations  during the period from the time of
             deposit to the time the Securities  are  purchased,  and payment of
             brokerage fees, will affect the value of every  Unitholder's  Units
             and the income per Unit received by the Trusts.

        o    Some of the Securities are  currently listed on  the   Nasdaq stock
             market.  The  existence of  a liquid  trading  market  for certain 
             Securities may depend on whether dealers will make a market in such
             Securities. There can be no assurance  that  a market  will be made
             for any of the Securities, that any market for  the Securities will
             be maintained or that any such market will be or remain liquid. The

             price  at which  the  Securities  may be sold and the  value of the
             Trusts  will be  adversely  affected  if  trading  markets  for the
             securities are limited or absent.

        o    There is no assurance  that any dividends  will be declared or paid
             in the future on the Securities.

        o    Since  the  Trusts  are  concentrated  in  stocks  which  derive  a
             substantial  portion of their income from the  computer  technology
             industry,  investors  should be familiar with the risks  associated
             with the computer  technology  industry  which may include  greater
             government regulations and products that may become obsolete.

        o    Investors  should also  consider  the  greater  risk of the Trusts'
             concentration  and the  effect  on their  investment  versus a more
             diversified  portfolio.  Investors should compare returns available
             in  less  concentrated   portfolios  before  making  an  investment
             decision.

PUBLIC OFFERING PRICE.    The Public Offering Price per 100 units of the Trusts 
             is calculated by:

        o    dividing the aggregate value of the underlying  securities and cash
             held  in the  Trusts  (representing  the  estimated  organizational
             costs) by the number of units outstanding;

        o    adding a sales charge of 4.495% (4.707% of the net amount 
             invested); and

        o    multiplying the result by 100.

In addition,  during the initial offering period,  the Public Offering Price per
100 units will include an amount  sufficient  to reimburse  the Sponsors for the
payment of all or a portion of the estimated organizational costs of the Trusts.
The price of a single unit, or any multiple  thereof,  is calculated by dividing
the Public  Offering Price per 100 units by 100 and multiplying by the number of
units.  The  Public  Offering  Price  per  Unit  will  vary on a daily  basis in
accordance with fluctuations in the aggregate value of the underlying Securities
and each investor's purchase price will be computed as of the date the Units are
purchased.  During the initial offering period, orders involving at least 25,000
Units will be entitled to a volume discount from the Public Offering Price.

DISTRIBUTIONS.  The Trust will distribute any dividends received, less expenses,
semi-annually.  The first dividend distribution will be made on June 30, 1999 to
all Unitholders of record on June 15, 1999 and thereafter  distributions will be
made on the last business day of every June and December. The final distribution
will be made within a reasonable period of time after the Trusts terminate.

MARKET  FOR  UNITS.  Unitholders  may sell their  Units to the  Sponsors  or the
Trustee at any time,  without fee or penalty.  The Sponsors intend to repurchase
Units from  Unitholders  throughout  the life of the Trusts at prices based upon
the market value of the  underlying  Securities.  However,  the Sponsors are not
obligated  to maintain a market and may stop doing so without  prior  notice for
any business reason. If a market is not maintained, a Unitholder will be able to
redeem his Units with the Trustee at the same price.  The  existence of a liquid
trading  market for the  Securities in the Trusts may depend on whether  dealers
will make a market in these Securities.  There can be no assurance of the making
or the  maintenance  of a  market  for any of the  Securities  contained  in the
portfolio  of the Trusts or of the  liquidity of the  Securities  in any markets
made. The price at which the Securities may be sold to meet  redemptions and the
value of the  Units  will be  adversely  affected  if  trading  markets  for the
Securities are limited or absent.

AUTOMATIC   REDEMPTION.   Any  transfer  of  Units  by  Unitholders  from  their
McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel  brokerage  account  will  result  in  the  automatic
redemption of those Units.

TERMINATION.  The Trusts will terminate in approximately  fifteen months. During
the  Liquidation  Period,  Securities  will  be  sold  in  connection  with  the
termination  of the Trust.  All  Securities  will be sold or  distributed by the
Mandatory  Termination Date. The Sponsors do not anticipate that the Liquidation
Period  will be longer  than  seven  days,  and it could be as short as one day,
depending on the liquidity of the Securities  being sold.  Unitholders may elect
one of the following three options in receiving their terminating distributions:

        o     receive their distribution in-kind, if they own at least 2,500 
              Units;

        o     receive cash upon the liquidation of their pro rata share of the 
              Securities; or

        o    reinvest in a subsequent  series of the  McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel
             Family of Trusts (if one is offered), at a reduced sales charge.

ROLLOVER   OPTION.   Unitholders   may  elect  to  rollover  their   terminating
distributions into the next available series of McLaughlin,  Piven, Vogel Family
of  Trusts,  at a reduced  sales  charge.  Rollover  Unitholders  must make this
election on or prior to the Rollover  Notification  Date. When  Unitholders make
this election,  their Units will be redeemed and the proceeds will be reinvested
in units of the next  available  series of  McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel Family of
Trusts. An election to rollover  terminating  distributions  will generally be a
taxable event. See  "Administration of the Trust -- Trust Termination" in Part B
for details to make this election.

REINVESTMENT  PLAN.   Unitholders  may  elect  to  automatically   reinvest  any
distributions   they  may  receive  (except  the  final   distribution  made  at
termination)  into  additional  Units of the Trusts at a reduced sales charge of
1.00%.  See  "Reinvestment  Plan" in Part B for  details on how to enroll in the
Reinvestment Plan.

UNDERWRITING.  McLaughlin, Piven, Vogel Securities, Inc., with principal offices
at 30 Wall Street,  New York, New York 10005, will act as Underwriter for all of
the Units of McLaughlin, Piven, Vogel Family of Trusts, McLaughlin, Piven, Vogel
Industrial Trust and McLaughlin, Piven, Vogel Technology Trust.

Notes to Statements of Financial Condition:
The preparation of financial statements in  accordance  with generally accepted 
accounting  principles   requires  Trust  management  to make estimates and 
assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results can
differ from those estimates.

       (1) McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel Family of Trusts,  the McLaughlin,  Piven,
Vogel  Industrial Trust and the McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel Technology Trust (the
"Trusts") are unit investment  trusts created under the laws of the State of New
York and registered  under the Investment  Company Act of 1940. The objective of
the Trusts, jointly sponsored by McLaughlin,  Piven, Vogel Securities,  Inc. and
Reich & Tang  Distributors,  Inc.,  the  Sponsors,  is to maximize  total return
through capital appreciation.  On April 20, 1999, the Date of Deposit, Portfolio
Deposits were received by The Chase Manhattan Bank, the Trusts' Trustee,  in the
form of executed securities  transactions,  in exchange for units of the Trusts.
An  irrevocable  letter of credit  issued by BankBoston in an amount of $200,000
has been  deposited  with the Trustee for the benefit of the Trusts to cover the
purchases  of  such  Securities  as  well  as  any   outstanding   purchases  of
previously-sponsored  unit investment trusts of the Sponsors.  Aggregate cost to
the  Trusts of the  Securities  listed in the  Portfolio  is  determined  by the
Trustee on the basis set forth under  "Public  Sale of Units -- Public  Offering
Price"  as of 4:00  p.m.  on April  19,  1999.  The  Trusts  will  terminate  on
__________,  2000 or earlier under certain circumstances as further described in
the Prospectus.

       (2) A portion of the Public  Offering Price consists of cash in an amount
sufficient  to reimburse the Sponsors for the per Unit portion of all or part of
the costs of establishing  the Trusts.  These costs have been estimated at $____
per 100  Units  for the  Industrial  Trust  and  $_______  per 100 Units for the
Technology  Trust.  A payment will be made as of the close of the initial public
offering  period  to an  account  maintained  by  the  Trustee  from  which  the
obligation of the  investors to the Sponsors  will be  satisfied.  To the extent
that actual  organization  costs are less than the  estimated  amount,  only the
actual organization costs will be deducted from the assets of the Trusts.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

THE UNITHOLDERS, SPONSORS AND TRUSTEE
MCLAUGHLIN, PIVEN, VOGEL FAMILY OF TRUSTS,
MCLAUGHLIN, PIVEN, VOGEL INDUSTRIAL TRUST
MCLAUGHLIN, PIVEN, VOGEL TECHNOLOGY TRUST

       We have audited the  accompanying  Statement  of  Financial  Condition of
McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel  Family  of  Trusts,  The  McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel
Industrial Trust and the McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel Technology Trust,  including
the  Portfolio,   as  of  April  19,  1999.  This  financial  statement  is  the
responsibility of the Trust's  management.  Our  responsibility is to express an
opinion on this financial statement based on our audit.

       We conducted our audit in accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable  assurance about whether the financial  statement is free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement.  Our procedures included
confirmation with The Chase Manhattan Bank, Trustee, of an irrevocable letter of
credit  deposited  for the  purchase of  securities,  as shown in the  financial
statement as of April 19, 1999. An audit also includes  assessing the accounting
principles  used  and  significant  estimates  made  by  management,  as well as
evaluating the overall  financial  statement  presentation.  We believe that our
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

       In our  opinion,  the  financial  statement  referred  to above  presents
fairly, in all material respects,  the financial position of McLaughlin,  Piven,
Vogel Family of Trusts,  The McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel Industrial Trust and the
McLaughlin, Piven, Vogel Technology Trust, at April 19, 1999, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                              PROSPECTUS -- Part B

                      Part B of This Prospectus May Not Be
                        Distributed Unless Accompanied by
                                     Part A

                                   THE TRUSTS

       ORGANIZATION.    The  Trusts   were  created   under   New York State law
pursuant to  a  Trust   Agreement ("Indenture")   among McLaughlin, Piven, Vogel
Securities, Inc. and Reich & Tang Distributors, Inc., as Sponsors, and The Chase
Manhattan Bank, as Trustee.

       On the  Initial  Date of Deposit,  (i) the  Sponsors  deposited  with the
Trustee  common  stock,  including  contracts  for the  purchase of certain such
securities (collectively, the "Securities") and cash or an irrevocable letter of
credit  issued  by a major  commercial  bank in the  amount  required  for  such
purchases,  and (ii) the Trustee, in exchange for the Securities,  registered on
the registration books of the Trusts the Sponsors' ownership of all Units of the
Trusts. As used herein,  the term "Securities" means the common stocks initially
deposited  in the  Trusts  and  described  in  "Portfolio"  in  Part  A and  any
additional  common  stocks  acquired  and  held by the  Trusts  pursuant  to the
provisions of the Indenture.

       As of the  Initial  Date of Deposit,  a "Unit"  represents  a  fractional
undivided interest or pro rata share in the Securities and cash of the Trusts as
is set forth in the "Summary of Essential  Information." As additional Units are
issued by the Trusts as a result of the  deposit of  Additional  Securities,  as
described  below,  the aggregate  value of the  Securities in the Trusts will be
increased and the  fractional  undivided  interest in the Trusts  represented by
each Unit will be  decreased.  To the extent that any Units are  redeemed by the
Trustee,  the  fractional  undivided  interest  or pro rata share in such Trusts
represented by each unredeemed Unit will increase,  although the actual interest
in such Trusts  represented by such fraction will remain  unchanged.  Units will
remain  outstanding  until  redeemed upon tender to the Trustee by  Unitholders,
which may include the Sponsors, or until the termination of the Trust Agreement.

       The contracts to purchase  Securities  deposited  initially in the Trusts
are expected to settle in three business  days, in the ordinary  manner for such
Securities.  Settlement of the contracts for Securities is thus expected to take
place  prior to the  settlement  of  purchase  of Units on the  Initial  Date of
Deposit.

       DEPOSIT OF ADDITIONAL SECURITIES.  During the 90-day period following the
Initial  Date of Deposit  (the  "Deposit  Period"),  the  Sponsors  may  deposit
additional  Securities  in the  Trusts  that are  substantially  similar  to the
Securities already deposited in the Trusts ("Additional Securities"),  contracts
to  purchase  Additional  Securities  or  cash  with  instructions  to  purchase
Additional Securities,  in order to create additional Units,  maintaining to the
extent  practicable  the original  proportionate  relationship  of the number of
shares  of each  Security  in the  Trusts'  portfolios  on the  Initial  Date of
Deposit.  These additional Units, which will result in an increase in the number
of Units  outstanding,  will  each  represent,  to the  extent  practicable,  an
undivided  interest  in the same  number  and type of  securities  of  identical
issuers as are represented by Units issued on the

808758.2
                                       B-1

<PAGE>



Initial Date of Deposit. The proportionate  relationship among the Securities in
the Trust will be adjusted  to reflect the  occurrence  of a stock  dividend,  a
stock split or a similar event which affects the capital structure of the issuer
of a Security  in the Trust but which does not  affect  the  Trust's  percentage
ownership  of the common  stock equity of such issuer at the time of such event.
It may not be possible to maintain the exact original proportionate relationship
among the Securities  deposited on the Initial Date of Deposit because of, among
other reasons,  purchase  requirements,  changes in prices, or unavailability of
Securities.  Deposits of Additional  Securities in the Trusts  subsequent to the
Deposit Period must replicate  exactly the existing  proportionate  relationship
among the number of shares of Securities in the Trusts'  portfolios.  Substitute
Securities may be acquired under specified conditions when Securities originally
deposited  in the  Trusts  are  unavailable  (see "The  Trusts  Substitution  of
Securities").

       INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE.    The   investment  objective of the Trusts is to 
maximize total return through capital appreciation.  There is no guarantee that 
the investment objective of the Trusts will be achieved.

       Achievement  of this  investment  objective  is  dependent  upon  several
factors  including any  appreciation or depreciation in value of the Securities,
the  full  range  of  economic  and  market   influences   affecting   corporate
profitability,  the  financial  condition  of  issuers  and the prices of equity
securities in general and the Securities in particular. In addition,  because of
other factors including Trust sales charges and expenses,  unequal weightings of
stock,  brokerage  costs  and any  delays  in  purchasing  securities  with cash
deposited, investors in the Trusts may not realize as high a total return as the
theoretical  performance  of the  underlying  stocks  in the  Trusts.  Since the
Sponsors  may  deposit  additional  Securities  in  connection  with the sale of
additional  Units, the yields on these  Securities may change  subsequent to the
Initial Date of Deposit.

       STRATEGY OF PORTFOLIO  SELECTION.  The Industrial  Trust seeks to achieve
its  investment  objective  by  investing  in a fixed  portfolio  of the 25 best
performing  stocks on the S&P 500  Index,  as  measured  by price  appreciation,
during the twelve-month period ending December 31, 1998. The strategy involves a
4- step selection process:

       Step 1:            Calculate   the   price appreciation for each company 
                          listed on the S&P 500 Index  over the 12-month period 
                          ending December 31, 1998.

       Step 2:            Select   the   25 stocks which have the greatest price
                          appreciation.

       Step 3:            [Eliminate   non-ordinary  common   shares  (including
                          preferred securities, rights and warrants) and foreign
                          issues (except American Depository Receipts).]

       Step 4:            Of   the  25  stocks selected for the Trust, weigh the
                          stocks equally.

       The  Technology  Trust  seeks to  achieve  its  investment  objective  by
investing in a fixed portfolio of 18 stocks,  comprised  primarily of technology
companies which have had both high trading volume and price appreciation, during
the  twelve-month  period ending December 31, 1998. The strategy also involves a
4-step selection process:

       Step 1:            Calculate the number of shares  traded daily,  for
                          each  company  listed on the Nasdaq  and the NYSE,  on
                          each day the  Nasdaq  and the NYSE  were open over the
                          twelve-month period ending December 31, 1998.

       Step 2:            Identity:  (i)   the    12   stocks which have had the
                          highest number of shares traded on the  Nasdaq  during
                          the twelve-month period ended  December 31, 1998  and 
                          from those 12

<PAGE>



                          stocks select the stocks which have had price 
                          appreciation of 40% or greater during the same period;
                          and

                          (ii) the 40  stocks  which had the  highest  number of
                          shares  traded  on the NYSE  during  the  twelve-month
                          period  ending   December  31,  1998  and  select  the
                          technology stocks which have had price appreciation of
                          40% or greater during the same period.

       Step 3:            [Eliminate  non-ordinary   common   shares  (including
                          preferred securities, rights and warrants) and foreign
                          issues (except American Depository Receipts).]

       Step 4:            Of   the   18 stocks selected for the Trust, weigh the
                          stocks in the following manner:

                          o   10% in each of the first two companies to rank in
                              the top half of both the volume and price 
                              categories;

                          o   6.0% in each of the  four  companies  that  ranked
                              highest in the trading volume category and 6.0% in
                              each of the four  companies that ranked highest in
                              the price  appreciation  category,  excluding  any
                              company  that was already  selected and received a
                              10% weighting; and

                          o    4.0% in each of the remaining companies.

The  volume of shares  traded  daily on the Nasdaq  (and NYSE) does not  include
shares  represented by options trading.  The inclusion of shares  represented by
options may have  provided  different  results and  therefore  the  selection of
stocks for inclusion in the Trusts may have differed.

       THE  SECURITIES.  Nasdaq.  Trading on the Nasdaq  Stock  Market  began in
February 1971. Nasdaq stands for the National  Association of Securities Dealers
Automated Quotations Systems.  Nasdaq is an electronic dealer exchange (there is
no physical  trading  floor) on which dealers trade  securities by setting a buy
and  sell  price.  On  Nasdaq,  trading  is  executed  through  a  computer  and
telecommunications  network  and trades more shares per day than any other major
United States market.  Approximately  5,100  domestic and foreign  companies are
listed  on  the  Nasdaq.   The  Nasdaq  Stock  Market  is  the  United   States'
second-largest  securities  market after the New York Stock  Exchange.  Nasdaq's
share volume  reached over 202 billion  shares in 1998 and dollar volume reached
nearly $5.8 trillion.  In 1998, Nasdaq share volume was greater than that of all
other U.S. stock markets.  In addition,  in 1998 Nasdaq listed 273 U.S.  initial
public offerings, which is 4 times more than any other U.S. stock market.

       The Nasdaq stock market is operated by the Nasdaq Stock Market,  Inc., an
independent  subsidiary of the National Association of Securities Dealers,  Inc.
(NASD).   Companies   listed  on  the  Nasdaq  are  separated   into  two  major
classifications,   the  Nasdaq  SmallCap  Market,   for  small  to  medium-sized
companies,  and the Nasdaq  National  Market,  for larger  companies with higher
capitalization.  The Nasdaq  Stock Market  includes  companies of every type and
every size, in every stage of development.  Although  companies listed on Nasdaq
represent  a  broad  spectrum  of  industries  including  agriculture,   mining,
construction, manufacturing, transportation, retail, banking and insurance, just
to name a few, the greatest  industry  concentrations of companies listed on the
Nasdaq  are  in  information   technology   (including   computer   technology),
telecommunications,   pharmaceuticals,   biotechnology,   finance,  banking  and
insurance.

       The recent acquisition by the NASD of the American Stock Exchange (AMEX),
a floor-based  trading  system,  has not altered or affected the Nasdaq  system.
Each market will continue to function as an independent subsidiary.

       NYSE.  The New York Stock Exchange  (NYSE) is the world's  largest equity
market.  The NYSE is a floor- based,  auction  market trading  system.  In 1998,
there were approximately 674 million shares traded each day. Approximately 3,100
domestic  and  foreign  companies  are listed on the NYSE with over 242  billion
shares outstanding and total market capitalization of nearly $12 trillion.

       The NYSE  consists  of large,  mid-sized  and  smaller  companies  in all
business sectors.  Moreover,  virtually every leading industrial,  financial and
service  corporation  is listed on the NYSE. To be considered for listing on the
NYSE, a company must meet specified levels of net earnings,  assets, and trading
volume, and its shares must be widely held by investors.

       S&P 500 Index. The S&P 500 includes a  representative  example of leading
companies  in  leading  industries.  The S&P  500 is  used by 97% of U.S.  money
managers  and pension plan  sponsors  and the market value of the 500  companies
contained  in this  index is  approximately  $10.4  trillion.  Stocks in the S&P
represent  approximately  80% of the market value of all publicly  traded common

publicly traded companies in the United States.

       The S&P 500 is widely  regarded as the standard for  measuring  large-cap
U.S. stock market  performance  and is also a barometer for overall stock market
performance  . The S&P focuses on large cap U.S.  companies  in leading  sectors
such as industrial, transportation, financial and utility. Stocks are chosen for
this index based on market size,  liquidity and industry  group  representation.
NYSE  companies  make up  approximately  91.6% of the S&P 500, Nasdaq  companies
account for approximately 8.0% and AMEX companies account for approximately 0.4%
of this index.

       SUBSTITUTION  OF  SECURITIES.  In the event of a failure to  deliver  any
Security  that has been  purchased  for the  Trusts  under a  contract  ("Failed
Securities"),  the Sponsors are authorized  under the Trust  Agreement to direct
the Trustee to acquire other securities ("Substitute Securities") to make up the
original corpus of the Trusts.

       The Substitute Securities must be purchased within 20 days after delivery
of the notice of the failed  contract.  Where the Sponsors  purchase  Substitute
Securities in order to replace  Failed  Securities,  the purchase  price may not
exceed the purchase price of the Failed Securities and the Substitute Securities
must be substantially  similar to the Securities  originally  contracted for and
not delivered.

       Whenever a  Substitute  Security has been  acquired  for the Trusts,  the
Trustee shall, within five days thereafter, notify all Unitholders of the Trusts
of the acquisition of the Substitute Security and the Trustee shall, on the next
Distribution  Date  which  is  more  than 30 days  thereafter,  make a pro  rata
distribution  of the  amount,  if any,  by which  the cost to the  Trusts of the
Failed Security exceeded the cost of the Substitute Security.

       In the  event  no  substitution  is  made,  the  proceeds  of the sale of
Securities  will be  distributed  to  Unitholders  as set forth under "Rights of
Unitholders -- Distributions."  In addition,  if the right of substitution shall
not be  utilized  to  acquire  Substitute  Securities  in the  event of a failed
contract, the Sponsor will cause to be refunded the sales charge attributable to
such Failed  Securities to all  Unitholders,  and  distribute  the principal and
dividends,   if  any,  attributable  to  such  Failed  Securities  on  the  next
Distribution Date.


                               RISK CONSIDERATIONS

       COMMON STOCK. An investment in Units should be made with an understanding
of the risks inherent in any investment in common stocks including the risk that
the financial  condition of the issuers of the Securities may become impaired or
that the general condition of the stock market may worsen (both of which may

808758.2
                                       B-4

<PAGE>



contribute directly to a decrease in the value of the Securities and thus in the
value of the Units). Additional risks include those associated with the right to
receive  payments  from the issuer which is generally  inferior to the rights of
creditors of, or holders of debt  obligations  or preferred  stock issued by the
issuer.  Holders of common stocks have a right to receive  dividends  only when,
if, and in the  amounts  declared  by the  issuer's  board of  directors  and to
participate in amounts  available for  distribution by the issuer only after all
other claims on the issuer have been paid or provided for. By contrast,  holders
of preferred stocks usually have the right to receive  dividends at a fixed rate
when  and  as  declared  by the  issuer's  board  of  directors,  normally  on a
cumulative  basis.  Dividends on cumulative  preferred stock must be paid before
any  dividends  are paid on common  stock  and any  cumulative  preferred  stock
dividend  which has been  omitted  is added to future  dividends  payable to the
holders of such cumulative  preferred  stock.  Preferred stocks are also usually
entitled to rights on  liquidation  which are senior to those of common  stocks.
For these  reasons,  preferred  stocks  generally  entail  less risk than common
stocks.

       Moreover,  common stocks do not represent an obligation of the issuer and
therefore  do not  offer  any  assurance  of income  or  provide  the  degree of
protection of debt securities. The issuance of debt securities or even preferred
stock by an issuer will create prior claims for payment of  principal,  interest
and dividends  which can  adversely  affect the ability and  inclination  of the
issuer to declare or pay dividends on its common stock or the economic  interest
of holders of common stock with respect to assets of the issuer upon liquidation
or bankruptcy.  Further,  unlike debt  securities  which typically have a stated
principal  amount  payable at  maturity  (which  value will be subject to market
fluctuations  prior thereto),  common stocks have neither fixed principal amount
nor a maturity and have values which are subject to market  fluctuations  for as
long as the common  stocks  remain  outstanding.  Common  stocks are  especially
susceptible  to general  stock market  movements  and to volatile  increases and
decreases  in value as  market  confidence  in and  perceptions  of the  issuers
change.   These  perceptions  are  based  on  unpredictable   factors  including
expectations  regarding  government,  economic,  monetary  and fiscal  policies,
inflation and interest rates,  economic expansion or contraction,  and global or
regional  political,  economic or banking crises. The value of the common stocks
in the Trusts thus may be expected to  fluctuate  over the life of the Trusts to
values higher or lower than those prevailing on the Initial Date of Deposit.

       Unitholders  will be unable to  dispose of any of the  Securities  in the
Trusts, and, as such, will not be able to vote the Securities.  As the holder of
the Securities, the Trustee will have the right to vote all of the voting stocks
in the Trusts and will vote in accordance with the instructions of the Sponsors.

       [COMPUTER  TECHNOLOGY  INDUSTRY.  The  Trusts  may  be  considered  to be
concentrated in the common stock of companies engaged in the computer technology
industry. As discussed,  the value of the Units of the Trusts may be susceptible
to various factors  affecting this industry.  Companies in the rapidly  changing
field of computer technology face special risks. For example,  their products or
services may not prove  commercially  successful or may become obsolete quickly.
As such, the Trusts may not be an appropriate investment for individuals who are
not long-term  investors  and whose primary  objective is safety of principal or
stable  income from their  investments.  The  computer  technology  and computer
technology-related  industries may be subject to greater governmental regulation
than many other industries and changes in governmental policies and the need for
regulatory  approvals may have a material  adverse  effect on these  industries.
Additionally,  companies  in  these  industries  may  be  subject  to  risks  of
developing computer  technologies,  competitive  pressures and other factors and
are dependent upon consumer and business acceptance as new computer technologies
evolve.]

       The  Sponsors  believe  that the  information  summarized  above  for the
[computer  technology]  industry describes some of the more significant  aspects
relating to the risks  associated  with investing in the Trusts which may have a
"concentration"  in this industry.  The sources of such information are obtained
from research reports

808758.2
                                       B-5

<PAGE>



as well as other  publicly  available  documents.  While the  Sponsors  have not
independently  verified  this  information,  they have no reason to believe that
such information is not correct in all material respects.

       FIXED PORTFOLIO. Unlike a "managed" investment company in which there may
be  frequent  changes  in the  portfolio  of  securities  based  upon  economic,
financial and market analyses, the adverse financial condition of a company will
not  result in the  elimination  of its  securities  from the  portfolio  of the
Trusts. In the event a public tender offer is made for a Security or a merger or
acquisition  is  announced  affecting a Security,  the Sponsor may  instruct the
Trustee to tender or sell the Security on the open market when,  in its opinion,
it is in the best  interests of the  Unitholders to do so. All the Securities in
the Trusts are liquidated or distributed  during the Liquidation  Period.  Since
the Trusts will not sell Securities in response to ordinary market  fluctuation,
but only at the Trusts'  termination or upon the  occurrence of certain  events,
the amount realized upon the sale of the Securities may not be the highest price
attained by an individual  Security  during the life of the Trusts.  Some of the
Securities  in the Trusts may also be owned by other clients of the Sponsors and
their affiliates.  However,  because these clients may have differing investment
objectives,  the  Sponsors may sell certain  Securities  from those  accounts in
instances where a sale by the Trusts would be impermissible, such as to maximize
return by taking  advantage  of market  fluctuations.  Although  the  Trusts are
regularly  reviewed  and  evaluated  and the Sponsor may instruct the Trustee to
sell Securities under certain limited circumstances, Securities will not be sold
by the Trusts to take advantage of market fluctuations or changes in anticipated
rates of appreciation.

       ADDITIONAL SECURITIES.  Investors should be aware that in connection with
the creation of additional Units subsequent to the Initial Date of Deposit,  the
Sponsors may deposit  Additional  Securities,  contracts to purchase  Additional
Securities or cash with instructions to purchase Additional Securities,  in each
instance  maintaining  the  original  proportionate  relationship,   subject  to
adjustment  under  certain  circumstances,  of the  numbers  of  shares  of each
Security  in the  Trusts.  To the extent the price of a  Security  increases  or
decreases  between the time cash is deposited with  instructions to purchase the
Security  and the time the cash is used to  purchase  the  Security,  Units  may
represent less or more of that Security and more or less of the other Securities
in the Trusts.  Brokerage fees (if any) incurred in purchasing  Securities  with
cash deposited with  instructions  to purchase the Securities will be an expense
of the Trusts.  Price fluctuations  between the time of deposit and the time the
Securities are purchased,  and payment of brokerage  fees, will affect the value
of every Unitholder's Units and the Income per Unit received by the Trusts.

       In particular, Unitholders who purchase Units during the initial offering
period  will  experience  a  dilution  of their  investment  as a result  of any
brokerage  fees paid by the Trusts  during  subsequent  deposits  of  Additional
Securities  purchased with cash  deposited.  In order to minimize these effects,
the Trusts will try to purchase Securities as near as possible to the Evaluation
Time or at prices as close as  possible  to the prices  used to  evaluate  Trust
Units at the Evaluation  Time. In addition,  subsequent  deposits to create such
additional  Units will not be covered by the deposit of a bank letter of credit.
In the event that the  Sponsors do not  deliver  cash in  consideration  for the
additional Units delivered,  the Trusts may be unable to satisfy their contracts
to purchase the  Additional  Securities.  The failure of the Sponsors to deliver
cash to the Trusts,  or any delays in the Trusts  receiving  such cash, may have
significant adverse consequences for the Trusts.

       YEAR 2000 ISSUE.  Many existing  computer programs use only two digits to
identify  a year in the date  field  and were  designed  and  developed  without
considering  the impact of the upcoming  change in the century.  Therefore,  the
year "2000" will be incorrectly identified as the year "1900". If not corrected,
many computer  applications  can fail or create  erroneous  results by or at the
Year 2000, requiring  substantial  resources to remedy. The Sponsors and Trustee
believe  that  the  "Year  2000"  problem  is  material  to their  business  and
operations  and may have a  material  adverse  effect on the  Sponsors'  and the
Trustee's results of operations and, in turn, cash available for distribution by
the Trustee.  Although the Sponsors and the Trustee are  addressing  the problem
with respect to their  business  operations,  there can be no assurance that the
"Year 2000" problem will

808758.2
                                       B-6

<PAGE>



be  properly or timely  resolved.  The "Year  2000"  problem may also  adversely
affect  issuers of the  Securities  contained  in the Trusts to varying  degrees
based upon various factors.  The Sponsors are unable to predict what effect,  if
any, the "Year 2000" problem will have on such issuers.

       TERMINATION. The Trusts may be terminated at any time and all outstanding
Units  liquidated  if the net asset  value of each Trust  falls below 40% of the
aggregate net asset value of each Trust at the  completion of the initial public
offering period. Investors should note that if the net asset value of each Trust
should fall below the applicable  minimum value, the Sponsors may then terminate
each Trust, at their sole  discretion,  prior to the Mandatory  Termination Date
specified in the Summary of Essential Information.

       LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND LEGISLATION.  At any time after the Initial Date of
Deposit,  legal proceedings may be initiated on various grounds,  or legislation
may be  enacted,  with  respect  to the  Securities  in the Trusts or to matters
involving  the  business  of the  issuer  of  the  Securities.  There  can be no
assurance  that  future  legal   proceedings  or   legislation,   regulation  or
deregulation  will not have a material  adverse effect on the Trusts or will not
impair the ability of the issuers of the  Securities to achieve  their  business
goals.

                                   TAX STATUS

       This is a  general  discussion  of  certain  of the  Federal  income  tax
consequences  of the  purchase,  ownership  and  disposition  of the Units.  The
summary  is  limited  to  investors  who hold  the  Units  as  "capital  assets"
(generally,  property held for investment) within the meaning of Section 1221 of
the Internal  Revenue  Code.  Unitholders  should  consult their tax advisers in
determining  the Federal,  state,  local and any other tax  consequences  of the
purchase, ownership and disposition of Units.

       In rendering the opinion set forth below,  Battle Fowler LLP has examined
the  Agreement,  the final  form of  Prospectus  dated the date  hereof  and the
documents  referred to therein,  among others, and has relied on the validity of
said documents and the accuracy and completeness of the facts set forth therein.
In the Opinion of Battle Fowler LLP,  special  counsel for the  Sponsors,  under
existing law:

             1. The Trusts  will be  classified  as grantor  trusts for  Federal
       income tax purposes and not as partnerships  or  associations  taxable as
       corporations.  Classification  of the Trusts as grantor trusts will cause
       the Trusts not to be subject to Federal  income  tax,  and will cause the
       Unitholders  of the Trusts to be treated for Federal  income tax purposes
       as the  owners of a pro rata  portion of the  assets of the  Trusts.  All
       income  received  by  the  Trusts  will  be  treated  as  income  of  the
       Unitholders in the manner set forth below.

             2. The Trusts  are not  subject  to the New York  Franchise  Tax on
       Business Corporations or the New York City General Corporation Tax. For a
       Unitholder who is a New York resident, however, a pro rata portion of all
       or part of the  income of the  Trusts  will be  treated  as income of the
       Unitholder  under the  income tax laws of the State and City of New York.
       Similar treatment may apply in other states.

             3. During the 90-day  period  subsequent  to the  initial  issuance
       date,  the Sponsors  reserve the right to deposit  Additional  Securities
       that  are   substantially   similar  to  those   deposited  in  initially
       establishing the Trusts.  This retained right falls within the guidelines
       promulgated  by the IRS and should not affect the  taxable  status of the
       Trusts.

       A taxable event will generally occur with respect to each Unitholder when
the Trusts  dispose of a Security  (whether by sale,  exchange or redemption) or
upon the sale,  exchange or redemption of Units by the  Unitholder.  The price a
Unitholder pays for its Units,  including sales charges,  is allocated among its
pro rata portion of each Security held by the Trusts (in  proportion to the fair
market values thereof on the date the  Unitholder  purchases its Units) in order
to determine  its initial cost for its pro rata portion of each Security held by
the Trusts.

808758.2
                                       B-7

<PAGE>



       For Federal  income tax  purposes,  a  Unitholder's  pro rata  portion of
dividends  paid with  respect  to a  Security  held by the  Trusts is taxable as
ordinary  income to the  extent of such  corporation's  current  or  accumulated
earnings and profits.  A  Unitholder's  pro rata portion of dividends  paid on a
Security  that exceed  current and  accumulated  earnings and profits will first
reduce a  Unitholder's  tax basis in the  Security,  and to the extent that such
dividends  exceed a  Unitholder's  tax basis in the Security  will  generally be
treated as a capital gain.

       A  Unitholder's  portion  of gain,  if any,  upon the sale,  exchange  or
redemption of Units or the  disposition  of  Securities  held by the Trusts will
generally be  considered a capital gain and will be long-term if the  Unitholder
has held its Units  (and the Trust  has held the  Securities)  for more than one
year.  Capital gains realized by  corporations  are generally  taxed at the same
rates applicable to ordinary  income,  but  non-corporate  taxpayers who realize
long-term capital gains may be subject to a reduced tax rate of 20%, rather than
the  "regular"  maximum tax rate of 39.6%.  Tax rates may increase  prior to the
time when Unitholders may realize gains from the sale, exchange or redemption of
the Units or Securities.

       A  Unitholder's  portion of loss,  if any, upon the sale or redemption of
Units or the  disposition  of  Securities  held by the Trusts will  generally be
considered a capital loss and will be long-term if the  Unitholder  has held its
Units (and the Trust has held the  Securities)  for more than one year.  Capital
losses are deductible to the extent of capital gains; in addition,  up to $3,000
of capital losses ($1,500 for married individuals filing separately)  recognized
by non-corporate Unitholders may be deducted against ordinary income.

       A Unitholder  that itemizes its  deductions  may also deduct its pro rata
share of the fees and  expenses of the Trusts,  but only to the extent that such
amounts, together with the Unitholder's other miscellaneous  deductions,  exceed
2% of its adjusted gross income.  The deduction of fees and expenses may also be
limited  by  Section  68 of the Code,  which  reduces  the  amount  of  itemized
deductions  that are allowed for  individuals  with incomes in excess of certain
thresholds.

       After the end of each  calendar  year,  the Trustee  will furnish to each
Unitholder an annual statement containing  information relating to the dividends
received by the Trusts on the  Securities,  the gross  proceeds  received by the
Trusts from the  disposition of any Security,  and the fees and expenses paid by
the Trusts.  The Trustee will also furnish  annual  information  returns to each
Unitholder and to the Internal Revenue Service.

       A  corporation  that owns  Units  will  generally  be  entitled  to a 70%
dividends  received  deduction with respect to its pro rata portion of dividends
taxable as ordinary income received by the Trusts from a domestic corporation or
from a qualifying foreign  corporation in the same manner as if such corporation
directly  owned the Securities  paying such  dividends.  However,  a corporation
owning  Units  should be aware  that  Sections  246 and 246A of the Code  impose
additional  limitations  on the  eligibility  of dividends for the 70% dividends
received  deduction.  These  limitations  include a requirement  that stock (and
therefore  Units) must generally be held at least 46 days (as  determined  under
Section 246(c) of the Code) during the 90-day period  beginning on the date that
is 45 days before the date on which the stock becomes ex-dividend. Moreover, the
allowable  percentage of the deduction will be reduced if a corporate Unitholder
owns  stock (or  Units)  the  financing  of which is  directly  attributable  to
indebtedness incurred by such corporation.

       As discussed in the section "Termination", each Unitholder may have three
options in receiving his  termination  distributions,  namely (i) to receive its
pro rata share of the underlying  Securities in kind,  (ii) to receive cash upon
liquidation  of its pro rata  share of the  underlying  Securities,  or (iii) to
invest the amount of cash it will receive upon the  liquidation  of its pro rata
share of the underlying Securities in units of a future series of the Trusts (if
one is  offered).  A  Unitholder  that  chooses  option (i) should be treated as
merely  exchanging  its undivided pro rata  ownership of Securities  held by the
Trusts for sole ownership of a proportionate share of Securities,  and therefore
the transaction should be tax free to the extent the Securities are

808758.2
                                       B-8

<PAGE>



received. Alternatively, the transaction may be treated as an exchange that will
qualify for nonrecognition  treatment to the extent the Unitholder is exchanging
its undivided  interest in all of the Trusts'  Securities for its  proportionate
number  of  shares  of  the  underlying  Securities.  In  either  instance,  the
transaction  should  result in a  non-taxable  event for the  Unitholder  to the
extent  Securities  are  received.  However,  there  is  no  specific  authority
addressing the income tax consequences of an in-kind distribution from a grantor
trust.

       Entities that generally qualify for an exemption from Federal income tax,
such as many pension  trusts,  are  nevertheless  taxed under Section 511 of the
Code on unrelated business taxable income.  Unrelated business taxable income is
income from a trade or business  regularly  carried on by the tax-exempt  entity
that is unrelated to the entity's exempt  purpose.  Unrelated  business  taxable
income  generally does not include  dividend or interest income or gain from the
sale of investment property, unless such income is derived from property that is
debt-financed or is dealer property.  A tax-exempt entity's dividend income from
the Trusts and gain from the sale of Units in the Trusts or the Trusts'  sale of
Securities is not expected to constitute  unrelated  business  taxable income to
such   tax-exempt   entity  unless  the   acquisition  of  the  Unit  itself  is
debt-financed  or  constitutes  dealer  property in the hands of the  tax-exempt
entity.

       Prospective  tax-exempt  investors  are  urged to  consult  their own tax
advisers concerning the Federal,  state, local and any other tax consequences of
the  purchase,  ownership  and  disposition  of Units prior to  investing in the
Trusts.

       RETIREMENT  PLANS.  The  Trusts  may  be  well  suited  for  purchase  by
Individual  Retirement Accounts ("IRAs"),  Keogh plans,  pension funds and other
qualified retirement plans. Generally, capital gains and income received in each
of the foregoing plans are exempt from Federal taxation.  Except with respect to
certain  IRAs known as Roth IRAs,  distributions  from such plans are  generally
treated as ordinary  income but may, in some cases, be eligible for special 5 or
10 year averaging or tax-deferred  rollover treatment.  Five year averaging will
not apply to distributions  after December 31, 1999. Ten year averaging has been
preserved in very limited  circumstances.  Holders of Units in IRAs, Keogh plans
and other  tax-deferred  retirement plans should consult their plan custodian as
to  the  appropriate   disposition  of  distributions.   Investors   considering
participation  in any such plan should review  specific tax laws related thereto
and  should  consult  their  attorneys  or  tax  advisors  with  respect  to the
establishment  and  maintenance  of any such  plan.  Such  plans are  offered by
McLauglin,  Piven, Vogel Securities,  Inc. Fees and charges with respect to such
plans may vary.

       Before investing in the Trusts,  the trustee or investment  manager of an
employee benefit plan (e.g., a pension or profit sharing retirement plan) should
consider  among other things  whether (i) the  investment  is prudent  under the
Employee  Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"),  taking into account
the needs of the plan and all of the facts and  circumstances  of the investment
in the Trusts; (ii) the investment satisfies the diversification  requirement of
Section  404(a)(1)(C)  of ERISA;  and (iii) the  assets of the Trusts are deemed
"plan assets" under ERISA and the  Department of Labor  regarding the definition
of "plan assets."

                              PUBLIC SALE OF UNITS

       PUBLIC  OFFERING  PRICE.  The Public  Offering Price of the Units for the
Trusts  is  computed  by  adding  the  applicable  initial  sales  charge to the
aggregate  value of the  Securities  (as determined by the Trustee) and any cash
held to  purchase  Securities,  divided  by the  number  of Units  of the  Trust
outstanding.  Valuation  of  Securities  by the  Trustee is made at the close of
business  on the NYSE on each  business  day.  Securities  quoted on a  national
exchange  or Nasdaq are valued at the  closing  sale  price.  Securities  not so
quoted are valued in the manner described in the Indenture.

       PUBLIC  DISTRIBUTION OF UNITS. Units will be distributed to the public at
the Public  Offering  Price  through the  Sponsors  and may also be  distributed
through  dealers.  The Sponsors  intend to qualify the Units for sale in certain
states.

       VOLUME AND OTHER DISCOUNTS. Units are available at a volume discount from
the Public  Offering  Price during the initial  public  offering  based upon the
number of Units  purchased.  This volume  discount  will result in the following
reduction of the sales charge applicable to such purchases:


                                                       Approximate
                                                         Reduced
Number of Units                                       Sales Charge 

25,000 but less than 50,000..........................   [3.995%]

50,000 but less than 100,000.........................   [3.745%]

100,000 or more......................................   [3.495%]


       For  transactions  of at least  100,000  Units or more,  the Sponsors may
negotiate the  applicable  sales charge and such charge will be disclosed to any
such purchaser.

       These  discounts  will  apply  to all  purchases  of  Units  by the  same
purchaser during the initial public offering period. Units purchased by the same
purchasers in separate  transactions  during the initial public  offering period
will be aggregated  for purposes of determining if such purchaser is entitled to
a discount. Such purchaser must own at least the required number of Units at the
time such  determination  is made.  Units  held in the name of the spouse of the
purchaser or in the name of a child of the  purchaser  under 21 years of age are
deemed for the purposes  hereof to be registered  in the name of the  purchaser.
The  discount  is also  applicable  to a trustee or other  fiduciary  purchasing
securities for a single trust estate or single fiduciary account.

       The holders of units of prior series of McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel Family
of Trusts (the "Prior  Series")  may  "rollover"  into the Trusts by  exchanging
units of the Prior  Series for Units of the Trusts at their  relative  net asset
values plus the applicable sales charge.  Unitholders  maintaining an account at
McLaughlin,  Piven, Vogel Securities,  Inc. exercising this option, may purchase
such Units subject to a reduced sales charge of [3.995%.] An exchange of a Prior
Series for Units of the Trusts will generally be a taxable  event.  The rollover
option  described herein will also be available to investors in the Prior Series
who elect to purchase Units of the Trusts (see "Trust Termination").

       Unitholders  with  a  brokerage  account  at  McLaughlin,   Piven,  Vogel
Securities,  Inc. will qualify to receive one trade to buy equity securities any
time  following  the first  Settlement  Date of the Trusts and only be charged a
$19.50 processing fee.

       Investors who purchase Units of the Trusts through a Keogh Plan,  pension
fund or other qualified  retirement plan having 25 or more members maintained at
McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel  Securities,  Inc. will be subject to a reduced sales
charge of 2.0%.

       Employees  (and their  immediate  families) of McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel
Securities, Inc. and Reich & Tang Distributors,  Inc. (and their affiliates) and
of the special  counsel to the  Sponsors,  may,  pursuant  to  employee  benefit
arrangements,  purchase  Units of the Trusts  without a sales  charge at a price
equal to the aggregate value of the underlying securities in the Trusts, divided
by the number of Units  outstanding.  Such  arrangements  result in less selling
effort and selling  expenses than sales to employee  groups of other  companies.
Resales or transfers of Units purchased under the employee benefit  arrangements
may only be made through the Sponsors'  secondary market, so long as it is being
maintained.

       SPONSORS'   PROFITS.   The  Sponsors   will  receive  a  combined   gross
underwriting  commission  equal to up to 4.495% of the Public Offering Price per
100 Units  (equivalent to 4.707% of the net amount invested in the  Securities).
Additionally, the Sponsors may realize a profit on the deposit of the Securities
in the Trusts  representing the difference between the cost of the Securities to
the Sponsors and the cost of the Securities to the Trusts (see "Portfolio"). The
Sponsors  may  realize  profits or sustain  losses  with  respect to  Securities
deposited in the Trusts which were  acquired  from  underwriting  syndicates  of
which they were a member.  All or a portion of the  Securities  deposited in the
Trusts may have been acquired through the Sponsors.

       During  the  initial   offering  period  and  thereafter  to  the  extent
additional  Units  continue  to be  offered  by  means of this  Prospectus,  the
Underwriter  may  also  realize  profits  or  sustain  losses  as  a  result  of
fluctuations  after the Initial  Date of Deposit in the  aggregate  value of the
Securities  and hence in the Public  Offering Price received by the Sponsors for
the Units. Cash, if any, made available to the Sponsors prior to settlement date
for the purchase of Units may be used in the Sponsors'  business  subject to the
limitations of 17 CFR 240.15c3-3  under the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 and
may be of benefit to the Sponsors.

       Both upon  acquisition of Securities and  termination of the Trusts,  the
Trustee may utilize the services of the Sponsors for the purchase or sale of all
or a portion of the Securities in the Trusts. The Sponsors may receive brokerage
commissions  from the  Trusts in  connection  with such  purchases  and sales in
accordance with applicable law.

       In  maintaining a market for the Units (see  "Sponsors  Repurchase")  the
Sponsors will realize  profits or sustain losses in the amount of any difference
between the price at which it buys Units and the price at which it resells  such
Units.

                              RIGHTS OF UNITHOLDERS

       BOOK-ENTRY UNITS.  Ownership of Units of the Trusts will not be evidenced
by  certificates.  All  evidence of  ownership  of the Units will be recorded in
book-entry  form at The Depository  Trust Company  ("DTC") through an investor's
McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel  brokerage  account.  Units held  through DTC will be
deposited by the Sponsors with DTC in the McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel DTC account
and registered in the nominee name CEDE & CO. Individual purchases of beneficial
ownership  interest in the Trusts will be made in  book-entry  form through DTC.
Ownership and transfer of Units will be evidenced and accomplished  directly and
indirectly  only by  book-entries  made by DTC and its  participants.  DTC  will
record  ownership and transfer of the Units among DTC  participants  and forward
all notices and credit all payments received in respect of the Units held by the
DTC participants.  Beneficial owners of Units will receive written  confirmation
of their purchases and sale from their McLaughlin,  Piven, Vogel representative.
Transfer,  and the  requirements  therefor,  will be governed by the  applicable
procedures of DTC and the  Unitholder's  agreement  with the DTC  participant in
whose name the Unitholder's Units are registered on the transfer records of DTC.

       DISTRIBUTIONS.   Dividends, if any, received by the Trusts  are  credited
by the Trustee to an Income Account for the Trusts.  Other  receipts,  including
the proceeds of Securities disposed of, are credited to a Principal Account  for
the Trusts.

       Distributions  to each Unitholder from the Income Account are computed as
of the close of business on each Record Date for the following  payment date and
consist of an amount  substantially equal to such Unitholder's pro rata share of
the income credited to the Income Account, less expenses. Distributions from the
Principal  Account  of  the  Trusts  (other  than  amounts  representing  failed
contracts, as previously discussed) will be computed as of each Record Date, and
will  be  made  to the  Unitholders  of  the  Trusts  on or  shortly  after  the
Distribution Date. Proceeds representing principal received from the disposition
of any of the Securities between

808758.2
                                      B-11

<PAGE>



a Record  Date and a  Distribution  Date which are not used for  redemptions  of
Units will be held in the Principal  Account and not distributed  until the next
Distribution  Date.  Persons  who  purchase  Units  between a Record  Date and a
Distribution Date will receive their first distribution on the Distribution Date
following the next Record Date.

       As of each Record Date,  the Trustee will deduct from the Income  Account
of the Trusts,  and, to the extent funds are not  sufficient  therein,  from the
Principal  Account of the Trusts,  amounts  necessary to pay the expenses of the
Trusts  (as  determined  on the  basis  set  forth  under  "Trust  Expenses  and
Charges").  The Trustee also may withdraw from said  accounts  such amounts,  if
any, as it deems  necessary to establish a reserve for any  applicable  taxes or
other  governmental  charges  that may be payable out of the Trusts.  Amounts so
withdrawn  shall not be considered a part of such Trusts' assets until such time
as the Trustee  shall return all or any part of such amounts to the  appropriate
accounts.  In addition,  the Trustee may withdraw  from the Income and Principal
Accounts such amounts as may be necessary to cover  redemptions  of Units by the
Trustee.

       The dividend  distribution  per 100 Units,  if any, cannot be anticipated
and may be paid as Securities are redeemed, exchanged or sold, or as expenses of
the Trusts  fluctuate.  No distribution  need be made from the Income Account or
the  Principal  Account  unless the balance  therein is an amount  sufficient to
distribute $1.00 per 100 Units.

       RECORDS.  The Trustee keeps records of the  transactions of the Trusts at
its  corporate  trust  office  including  names,  addresses  and holdings of all
Unitholders  of  record,  a  current  list of the  Securities  and a copy of the
Indenture.   Such  records  are  available  to  Unitholders  for  inspection  at
reasonable times during business hours.

       REPORTS  TO  HOLDERS  The  Trustee  will  furnish  Unitholders  with each
distribution  a  statement  of the  amount  of  income  and the  amount of other
receipts,  if any,  which are  being  distributed,  expressed  in each case as a
dollar  amount per 100  Units.  Within a  reasonable  time after the end of each
calendar  year,  the Trustee  will furnish to each person who at any time during
the calendar year was a Unitholder of record, a statement  showing (i) as to the
Income Account:  dividends,  interest and other cash amounts  received,  amounts
paid for purchases of Substitute  Securities and  redemptions of Units,  if any,
deductions  for  applicable  taxes and fees and expenses of the Trusts,  and the
balance remaining after such  distributions and deductions,  expressed both as a
total dollar  amount and as a dollar amount  representing  the pro rata share of
each 100 Units  outstanding on the last business day of such calendar year; (ii)
as to the Principal Account:  the dates of disposition of any Securities and the
net proceeds received therefrom, deductions for payments of applicable taxes and
fees and  expenses of the  Trusts,  amounts  paid for  purchases  of  Substitute
Securities and  redemptions of Units,  if any, and the balance  remaining  after
such  distributions and deductions,  expressed both as a total dollar amount and
as a dollar amount representing the pro rata share of each 100 Units outstanding
on the last business day of such calendar  year;  (iii) a list of the Securities
held, a list of Securities  purchased,  sold or otherwise disposed of during the
calendar  year and the number of Units  outstanding  on the last business day of
such calendar year; (iv) the Redemption  Price per 100 Units based upon the last
computation  thereof made during such calendar  year;  and (v) amounts  actually
distributed  to  Unitholders  during  such  calendar  year from the  Income  and
Principal  Accounts,  separately stated, of the Trusts,  expressed both as total
dollar amounts and as dollar amounts representing the pro rata share of each 100
Units outstanding on the last business day of such calendar year.

       Unitholders will be furnished with evaluations of Securities upon request
to the  Trustee  in order  to  comply  with  federal  and  state  tax  reporting
requirements.

                                    LIQUIDITY

       SPONSORS  REPURCHASE.  Unitholders  who wish to  dispose  of their  Units
should  inquire of the  Sponsors as to current  market  prices prior to making a
tender for redemption.  The aggregate value of the Securities will be determined
by the  Trustee  on a daily  basis and  computed  on the  basis set forth  under
"Trustee   Redemption."  The  Sponsors  do  not  guarantee  the  enforceability,
marketability  or price of any Securities in the Portfolio or of the Units.  The
Sponsors may  discontinue the repurchase of Units if the supply of Units exceeds
demand,  or for other business  reasons.  The date of repurchase is deemed to be
the  date  on  which  redemption  requests  are  received  in  proper  form,  by
McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel Securities,  Inc., 30 Wall Street, New York, New York
10005 or Reich & Tang  Distributors  Inc., 600 Fifth Avenue,  New York, New York
10020.  Redemption requests received after 4 P.M., New York Time, will be deemed
to have been  repurchased on the next business day. In the event a market is not
maintained  for the Units,  a Unitholder may be able to dispose of Units only by
tendering them to the Trustee for redemption.

       Units purchased by the Sponsors in the secondary  market may be reoffered
for  sale by the  Sponsors  at a  price  based  on the  aggregate  value  of the
Securities in the Trusts plus a 4.495% sales charge (or 4.707% of the net amount
invested) plus a pro rata portion of amounts, if any, in the Income Account. Any
Units that are  purchased  by the Sponsors in the  secondary  market also may be
redeemed by the Sponsors if they determine  such  redemption to be in their best
interest.

       The  Sponsors  may,  under  certain   circumstances,   as  a  service  to
Unitholders,  elect to purchase any Units tendered to the Trustee for redemption
(see "Trustee Redemption").  Factors that the Sponsors will consider in making a
determination  will include the number of Units of all Trusts which they have in
inventory,  their  estimate of the  stability and the time required to sell such
Units  and  general  market  conditions.  For  example,  if  in  order  to  meet
redemptions  of Units  the  Trustee  must  dispose  of  Securities,  and if such
disposition  cannot be made by the  redemption  date (three  calendar days after
tender),  the Sponsors may elect to purchase such Units.  Such purchase shall be
made by payment to the  Unitholder  not later than the close of  business on the
redemption  date of an  amount  equal  to the  Redemption  Price  on the date of
tender.

       TRUSTEE  REDEMPTION.  At any  time  prior to the  Evaluation  Time on the
business day preceding the commencement of the Liquidation Period (approximately
fifteen  months  from the Date of  Deposit),  Units may also be  tendered to the
Trustee for  redemption  upon  payment of any  relevant  tax by  contacting  the
Sponsors  holding such Units in street name.  In certain  instances,  additional
documents may be required,  such as trust  instrument,  certificate of corporate
authority,  certificate of death or appointment  as executor,  administrator  or
guardian.  At the  present  time  there are no  specific  taxes  related  to the
redemption of Units.  No  redemption  fee will be charged by the Sponsors or the
Trustee. Units redeemed by the Trustee will be canceled.

       Within  three  business  days  following  a tender  for  redemption,  the
Unitholder will be entitled to receive an amount for each Unit tendered equal to
the Redemption Price per Unit computed as of the Evaluation Time set forth under
"Summary of Essential Information" in Part A on the date of tender. The "date of
tender" is deemed to be the date on which  Units are  received  by the  Trustee,
except  that with  respect to Units  received  after the close of trading on the
Nasdaq,  NYSE or AMEX (4:00 p.m.  Eastern Time),  the date of tender is the next
day on which such Exchange is open for trading, and such Units will be deemed to
have been tendered to the Trustee on such day for  redemption at the  Redemption
Price computed on that day.

       A  Unitholder  will receive his  redemption  proceeds in cash and amounts
paid on  redemption  shall be  withdrawn  from the  Income  Account,  or, if the
balance therein is insufficient,  from the Principal Account.  All other amounts
paid on redemption shall be withdrawn from the Principal Account. The Trustee is
empowered to sell Securities in order to make funds  available for  redemptions.
Such sales, if required, can result in a sale of

808758.2
                                      B-13

<PAGE>



Securities by the Trustee at a loss. To the extent Securities are sold, the size
and diversity of the Trusts will be reduced.  The  Securities to be sold will be
selected by the Trustee in order to  maintain,  to the extent  practicable,  the
proportionate  relationship among the number of shares of each Stock.  Provision
is made in the  Indenture  under which the Sponsors  may, but need not,  specify
minimum  amounts in which blocks of Securities are to be sold in order to obtain
the best price for the Trusts. While these minimum amounts may vary from time to
time in accordance with market conditions, the Sponsors believe that the minimum
amounts  which will be specified  will be  approximately  100 shares for readily
marketable Securities.

       The  Redemption  Price per Unit is the pro rata  share of the Unit in the
Trusts  determined  by the  Trustee  on the basis of (i) the cash on hand in the
Trusts  or  moneys  in the  process  of being  collected,  (ii) the value of the
Securities  in the  Trusts  as  determined  by the  Trustee,  less  (a)  amounts
representing taxes or other governmental  charges payable out of the Trusts, (b)
the accrued  expenses of the Trusts and (c) cash allocated for the  distribution
to Unitholders  of record as of the business day prior to the  evaluation  being
made. As of the close of the initial public offering period the Redemption Price
per 100  Units  will be  reduced  to  reflect  the  payment  of the per 100 Unit
organization  costs to the Sponsors.  The Trustee may determine the value of the
Securities in the Trusts in the following  manner:  because the  Securities  are
listed on national securities exchanges, this evaluation is based on the closing
sale  prices  on  those  exchanges.   Unless  the  Trustee  deems  these  prices
inappropriate  as a basis for evaluation or if there is no such closing purchase
price,  then the Trustee may utilize,  at the Trusts'  expense,  an  independent
evaluation  service or services to ascertain the values of the  Securities.  The
independent  evaluation  service  shall use any of the following  methods,  or a
combination thereof, which it deems appropriate: (i) on the basis of current bid
prices for comparable securities, (ii) by appraising the value of the Securities
on the bid side of the market or (iii) by any combination of the above.

       Any Unitholder tendering 2,500 Units or more of the Trusts for redemption
may request by written  notice  submitted at the time of tender from the Trustee
in lieu of a cash  redemption a distribution of shares of Securities and cash in
an amount and value equal to the  Redemption  Price Per Unit as determined as of
the  evaluation  next  following  tender.  To  the  extent  possible,   in  kind
distributions ("In Kind Distributions") shall be made by the Trustee through the
distribution  of each of the Securities in book-entry form to the account of the
Unitholder's  broker-dealer at DTC. An In Kind  Distribution  will be reduced by
customary  transfer and  registration  charges.  The tendering  Unitholder  will
receive his pro rata number of whole shares of each of the Securities comprising
a Trust  portfolio and cash from the Principal  Accounts equal to the balance of
the Redemption Price to which the tendering Unitholder is entitled.  If funds in
the Principal  Account are insufficient to cover the required cash  distribution
to the  tendering  Unitholder,  the  Trustee may sell  Securities  in the manner
described above.

       The Trustee is irrevocably authorized in its discretion,  if the Sponsors
do not elect to  purchase a Unit  tendered  for  redemption  or if the  Sponsors
tender a Unit for redemption,  in lieu of redeeming such Unit, to sell such Unit
in the  over-the-counter  market for the account of the tendering  Unitholder at
prices  which  will  return  to the  Unitholder  an  amount  in cash,  net after
deducting brokerage  commissions,  transfer taxes and other charges, equal to or
in excess of the  Redemption  Price for such Unit.  The Trustee will pay the net
proceeds of any such sale to the  Unitholder  on the day he would  otherwise  be
entitled to receive payment of the Redemption Price.

       The Trustee  reserves the right to suspend the right of redemption and to
postpone  the date of  payment of the  Redemption  Price per Unit for any period
during which the Nasdaq,  NYSE, or AMEX is closed,  other than customary weekend
and holiday  closings,  or when trading on that Exchange is restricted or during
which (as  determined by the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission) an emergency
exists as a result of which  disposal or  evaluation  of the  Securities  is not
reasonably practicable, or for such other periods as the Securities and Exchange
Commission  may by order permit.  The Trustee and the Sponsors are not liable to
any person or in any way for any loss or damage  which may result  from any such
suspension or postponement.

<PAGE>




       A  Unitholder  who wishes to dispose of his Units  should  inquire of his
broker in order to  determine  if there is a current  secondary  market price in
excess of the Redemption Price.

       AUTOMATIC   REDEMPTION.   In  the  event  a  transfer  of  Units  from  a
Unitholder's McLaughlin, Piven, Vogel brokerage account results in the automatic
redemption  of those  Units,  Unitholders  will  receive an amount  equal to the
Redemption  Price per Unit  computed as of the  Evaluation  Time set forth under
"Summary of Essential Information" in Part A on the date of transfer.  Automatic
redemption proceeds will be paid within three business days following the tender
of a notification of transfer.


                          ADMINISTRATION OF THE TRUSTS

       TRUST  SUPERVISION.  Each Trust is a unit  investment  trust and is not a
managed fund.  Traditional  methods of investment  management for a managed fund
typically  involve frequent changes in a portfolio of securities on the basis of
economic,  financial and market analyses. The Portfolios of the Trusts, however,
will not be managed and therefore the adverse  financial  condition of an issuer
will not  necessarily  require the sale of its  Securities  from the  portfolio.
Although  the  portfolio  of the Trusts is  regularly  reviewed,  because of the
formula  employed in selecting  the  Securities,  it is unlikely the Trusts will
sell any of the Securities  other than to satisfy  redemptions  of Units,  or to
cease buying Additional Securities in connection with the issuance of additional
Units.  However,  the Trust Agreement  provides that the Sponsors may direct the
disposition of Securities upon the occurrence of certain events  including:  (i)
default in payment of amounts due on any of the Securities;  (ii) institution of
certain legal proceedings;  (iii) default under certain documents materially and
adversely  affecting  future  declaration or payment of amounts due or expected;
(iv)  determination  of the Sponsors  that the tax  treatment of the Trusts as a
grantor  trust  would  otherwise  be  jeopardized;  or (v) decline in price as a
direct  result of  serious  adverse  credit  factors  affecting  the issuer of a
Security which,  in the opinion of the Sponsors,  will make the retention of the
Security detrimental to the Trusts or the Unitholders.  Furthermore,  the Trusts
will  likely  continue  to  hold  a  Security  and  purchase  additional  shares
notwithstanding  its  ceasing to be (i) ranked as one of the 25 best  performing
stocks on the S&P 500 Index, as measured by price  appreciation or (ii) included
as one of  the  highest  traded  stocks  on the  Nasdaq  or  NYSE  with a  price
appreciation of 40% or greater.

       In addition, the Trust Agreement provides as follows:

       1. If a default  in the  payment of amounts  due on any  Security  occurs
pursuant  to  provision  (i) above and if the  Sponsors  fail to give  immediate
instructions to sell or hold that Security, the Trustee,  within 30 days of that
failure by the Sponsors, shall sell the Security.

       2. It is the  responsibility  of the  Sponsors to instruct the Trustee to
reject  any  offer  made by an  issuer  of any of the  Securities  to issue  new
securities  in  exchange  and  substitution  for  any  Security  pursuant  to  a
recapitalization or reorganization,  if any exchange or substitution is effected
notwithstanding such rejection,  any securities or other property received shall
be promptly sold unless the Sponsors direct that it be retained.

       3. Any property received by the Trustee after the Initial Date of Deposit
as a  distribution  on any of  the  Securities  in a form  other  than  cash  or
additional shares of the Securities,  which shall be retained, shall be promptly
sold unless the Sponsors direct that it be retained by the Trustee. The proceeds
of any disposition  shall be credited to the Income or Principal  Account of the
Trusts.


808758.2
                                      B-15

<PAGE>



       4. The Sponsors are  authorized  to increase the size and number of Units
of the Trusts by the deposit of  Additional  Securities,  contracts  to purchase
Additional  Securities  or cash or a  letter  of  credit  with  instructions  to
purchase  Additional  Securities  in exchange  for the  corresponding  number of
additional  Units from time to time  subsequent  to the Initial Date of Deposit,
provided that the original proportionate relationship among the number of shares
of each Security established on the Initial Date of Deposit is maintained to the
extent  practicable.  The  Sponsors  may specify  the  minimum  numbers in which
Additional  Securities  will be  deposited  or  purchased.  If a deposit  is not
sufficient to acquire  minimum amounts of each Security,  Additional  Securities
may be acquired in the order of the Security most under-represented  immediately
before the deposit when compared to the original proportionate relationship.  If
Securities of an issue  originally  deposited are unavailable at the time of the
subsequent deposit, the Sponsors may (i) deposit cash or a letter of credit with
instructions to purchase the Security when it becomes available, or (ii) deposit
(or  instruct the Trustee to purchase)  either  Securities  of one or more other
issues originally deposited or a Substitute Security.

       TRUST AGREEMENT AND AMENDMENT.  The Trust Agreement may be amended by the
Trustee and the Sponsors  without the consent of any of the  Unitholders to: (i)
cure any  ambiguity  or to  correct or  supplement  any  provision  which may be
defective or inconsistent;  (ii) change any provision thereof as may be required
by the Securities and Exchange Commission or any successor  governmental agency;
or (iii) make such other  provisions in regard to matters arising  thereunder as
shall not adversely affect the interests of the Unitholders.

       The Trust Agreement may also be amended in any respect, or performance of
any of the  provisions  thereof  may be waived,  with the  consent of  investors
holding 66 2/3% of the Units then  outstanding  for the purpose of modifying the
rights of  Unitholders;  provided that no such  amendment or waiver shall reduce
any  Unitholder's  interest  in the  Trusts  without  his  consent or reduce the
percentage of Units  required to consent to any such amendment or waiver without
the consent of the holders of all Units. The Trust Agreement may not be amended,
without the consent of the holders of all Units in the Trusts then  outstanding,
to increase  the number of Units  issuable or to permit the  acquisition  of any
Securities in addition to or in substitution  for those  initially  deposited in
such Trust, except in accordance with the provisions of the Trust Agreement. The
Trustee shall promptly notify  Unitholders,  in writing, of the substance of any
such amendment.

       TRUST  TERMINATION.  The Trust  Agreement  provides that the Trusts shall
terminate  as  of  the  Evaluation  Time  on  the  business  day  preceding  the
commencement of the Liquidation Period or upon the maturity, redemption or other
disposition,  as the case may be,  of the  last of the  Securities  held in such
Trust but in no event is it to continue beyond the Mandatory  Termination  Date.
If the value of the Trusts shall be less than the minimum amount set forth under
"Summary  of  Essential  Information"  in  Part  A,  the  Trustee  may,  in  its
discretion,  and shall, when so directed by the Sponsors,  terminate the Trusts.
The Trusts may also be  terminated at any time with the consent of the investors
holding 100% of the Units then outstanding. The Trustee may utilize the services
of the  Sponsors  for the  sale of all or a  portion  of the  Securities  in the
Trusts,  and in so doing,  the Sponsors will  determine  the manner,  timing and
execution of the sales of the underlying  Securities.  Any brokerage commissions
received by the Sponsors from the Trusts in  connection  with such sales will be
in accordance with  applicable law. In the event of termination,  written notice
thereof will be sent by the Trustee to all Unitholders. Such notice will provide
Unitholders  with the following three options by which to receive their pro rata
share of the net asset value of the Trusts and requires their election of one of
the three  options by notifying  the Trustee by  returning a properly  completed
election request (to be supplied to Unitholders of at least 2,500 Units prior to
the commencement of the Liquidation Period):

       1. a Unitholder  who owns at least 2,500 units and whose  interest in the
Trusts will entitle it to receive at least one share of each underlying Security
will have its Units redeemed upon the  commencement of the  Liquidation  Period.
This will be accomplished by distribution of the  Unitholder's pro rata share of
the net asset

808758.2
                                      B-16

<PAGE>



value of the Trusts on such date  distributed in kind to the extent  represented
by whole shares of  underlying  Securities  and the balance in cash within three
business  days  next  following  the  commencement  of the  Liquidation  Period.
Unitholders   subsequently  selling  such  distributed   Securities  will  incur
brokerage costs when disposing of such  Securities.  Unitholders  should consult
their own tax adviser in this regard;

       2. to receive in cash such  Unitholder's  pro rata share of the net asset
value of the Trusts  derived  from the sale by the Sponsors as the agents of the
Trustee  of  the  underlying  Securities  during  the  Liquidation  Period.  The
Unitholder's  pro rata share of its net assets of the Trusts will be distributed
to such Unitholder  within three days of the settlement of the trade of the last
Security to be sold; and/or

       3. to invest  such  Unitholder's  pro rata share of the net assets of the
Trusts  derived  from the sale by the  Sponsors  as agents of the Trustee of the
underlying  Securities  in units of a subsequent  series of  McLaughlin,  Piven,
Vogel  Family of Trusts  (the  "New  Series")  provided  one is  offered.  It is
expected that a special  redemption and liquidation will be made of all Units of
the Trusts held by a Unitholder  (a  "Rollover  Unitholder")  who  affirmatively
notifies the Trustee on or prior to the Rollover  Notification Date set forth in
the "Summary of Essential  Information"  for the Trust in Part A. The Units of a
New Series will be purchased by the Unitholder within three business days of the
settlement of the trade for the last Security to be sold. Such purchaser will be
entitled to a reduced sales charge upon the purchase of units of the New Series.
It is expected that the terms of the New Series will be  substantially  the same
as the  terms of the  Trusts  described  in this  Prospectus,  and that  similar
options with respect to the  termination  of such New Series will be  available.
The  availability  of this option does not constitute a solicitation of an offer
to purchase Units of a New Series or any other security. A Unitholder's election
to participate in this option will be treated as an indication of interest only.
At any time prior to the  purchase  by the  Unitholder  of units of a New Series
such  Unitholder  may change his investment  strategy and receive,  in cash, the
proceeds  of the sale of the  Securities.  [An  election of this option will not
prevent the Unitholder from recognizing taxable gain or loss (except in the case
of a loss,  if and to the extent  the New  Series is  treated  as  substantially
identical  to the  Trusts) as a result of the  liquidation,  even though no cash
will be distributed to pay any taxes.  Unitholders  should consult their own tax
advisers in this regard.]

       Unitholders  who do not make any election  will be deemed to have elected
to receive the termination distribution in cash (option number 2).

       The  Sponsors  have  agreed  that to the extent  they effect the sales of
underlying  securities  for the  Trustee  in the case of the  second  and  third
options  during the  Liquidation  Period  such  sales will be free of  brokerage
commissions. The Sponsors, on behalf of the Trustee, will sell, unless prevented
by unusual  and  unforeseen  circumstances,  such as,  among  other  reasons,  a
suspension in trading of a Security, the close of a stock exchange,  outbreak of
hostilities  and  collapse  of the  economy,  by the  last  business  day of the
Liquidation  Period.  The Redemption  Price Per 100 Units upon the settlement of
the last sale of Securities during the Liquidation Period will be distributed to
Unitholders in redemption of such Unitholders' interest in the Trusts.

       Depending  on the amount of  proceeds  to be invested in Units of the New
Series and the amount of other orders for Units in the New Series,  the Sponsors
may purchase a large amount of  securities  for the New Series in a short period
of time. The Sponsors'  buying of securities may tend to raise the market prices
of these  securities.  The  actual  market  impact of the  Sponsors'  purchases,
however, is currently  unpredictable  because the actual amount of securities to
be purchased and the supply and price of those securities is unknown.  A similar
problem  may  occur  in  connection  with  the  sale of  Securities  during  the
Liquidation Period; depending on the number of sales required, the prices of and
demand for Securities, such sales may tend to depress the market prices and thus
reduce  the  proceeds  of such  sales.  The  Sponsors  believe  that the sale of
underlying Securities over the Liquidation Period described above is in the best
interest of a Unitholder and may mitigate the negative market price consequences
stemming from the trading of large amounts of Securities.  The Securities may be
sold in

808758.2
                                      B-17

<PAGE>



fewer than seven days if, in the Sponsor's judgment,  such sales are in the best
interest of Unitholders.  The Sponsors, in implementing such sales of securities
on behalf of the Trustee,  will seek to maximize the sales proceeds and will act
in the best interests of the  Unitholders.  There can be no assurance,  however,
that any adverse price consequences of heavy trading will be mitigated.

       Section 17(a) of the Investment  Company Act of 1940 generally  prohibits
principal   transactions  between  registered  investment  companies  and  their
affiliates.  Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, each  terminating
McLaughlin,  Piven,  Vogel  Family  of  Trusts  can sell  Duplicated  Securities
directly  to a New Series.  The  exemption  will enable the Trusts to  eliminate
commission  costs  on  these  transactions.   The  price  for  those  securities
transferred  will be the  closing  sale  price on the sale date on the  national
securities  exchange where the securities are principally  traded,  as certified
and confirmed by the Trustee.

       The Sponsors may for any reason, in their sole discretion,  decide not to
sponsor  any  subsequent  series of the  Trusts,  without  penalty or  incurring
liability to any Unitholder. If the Sponsors so decide, the Sponsors will notify
the Trustee of that decision,  and the Trustee will notify the Unitholders.  All
Unitholders will then elect either option 1, if eligible, or option 2.

       By electing to rollover into the New Series, the Unitholder indicates his
interest in having his terminating distribution from the Trusts invested only in
the New Series created following termination of the Trusts; the Sponsors expect,
however,  that a similar  rollover  program  will be offered with respect to all
subsequent series of the Trusts, thus giving Unitholders an opportunity to elect
to rollover their terminating  distributions into a New Series. The availability
of the  rollover  privilege  does not  constitute  a  solicitation  of offers to
purchase units of a New Series or any other security. A Unitholder's election to
participate in the rollover program will be treated as an indication of interest
only.  The Sponsors  intend to coordinate the date of deposit of a future series
so that  the  terminating  trusts  will  terminate  contemporaneously  with  the
creation of a New Series.  The Sponsors reserve the right to modify,  suspend or
terminate the rollover privilege at any time.

       [In the  event  the  Sponsors  determine  that a  redemption  in kind and
subsequent  investment in a New Series by a Unitholder may be  accomplished in a
manner  that will not  result  in the  recognition  of gain or loss for  Federal
income tax purposes with respect to any Securities  included in the portfolio of
the New  Series,  Unitholders  will be  notified  at least 30 days  prior to the
Rollover Notification Date of the procedures and process necessary to facilitate
such tax treatment.]

       The  information  included  herein is only for the  purpose of  informing
investors as to the financial  responsibility  of the Sponsors and their ability
to  carry  out its  contractual  obligations.  The  Sponsors  will be  under  no
liability to Unitholders  for taking any action,  or refraining  from taking any
action, in good faith pursuant to the Trust Agreement, or for errors in judgment
except in cases of its own willful  misfeasance,  bad faith, gross negligence or
reckless disregard of its obligations and duties.

       The Sponsors may each resign at any time by  delivering to the Trustee an
instrument of resignation executed by the Sponsors. If at any time either of the
Sponsors  shall  resign or fail to perform any of their  duties  under the Trust
Agreement or becomes  incapable of acting or becomes  bankrupt or their  affairs
are taken over by public authorities,  then the Trustee may either (i) appoint a
successor sponsor;  (ii) terminate the Trust Agreement and liquidate the Trusts;
or (iii) continue to act as Trustee without terminating the Trust Agreement. Any
successor  sponsor appointed by the Trustee shall be satisfactory to the Trustee
and, at the time of appointment, shall have a net worth of at least $1,000,000.

       THE TRUSTEE.  The Trustee is The Chase Manhattan Bank, with its principal
executive  office  located at 270 Park  Avenue,  New York,  New York 10017 (800)
428-8890 and its unit investment  trust office at Four New York Plaza, New York,
New York 10004. The Trustee is subject to supervision by the  Superintendent  of
Banks of the State of New York, the Federal  Deposit  Insurance  Corporation and
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

       The Trustee shall not be liable or  responsible in any way for taking any
action,  or for refraining from taking any action, in good faith pursuant to the
Trust  Agreement,  or for  errors in  judgment;  or for any  disposition  of any
moneys,  Securities or Units in accordance with the Trust  Agreement,  except in
cases of its own willful  misfeasance,  bad faith,  gross negligence or reckless
disregard of its obligations  and duties;  provided,  however,  that the Trustee
shall not in any event be liable or responsible  for any evaluation  made by any
independent  evaluation  service employed by it. In addition,  the Trustee shall
not be liable for any taxes or other  governmental  charges  imposed  upon or in
respect of the  Securities  or the Trusts  which it may be required to pay under
current or future law of the United States or any other taxing  authority having
jurisdiction.  The Trustee shall not be liable for depreciation or loss incurred
by reason of the sale by the  Trustee of any of the  Securities  pursuant to the
Trust Agreement.

       For further information  relating to the  responsibilities of the Trustee
under the Trust  Agreement,  reference  is made to the  material set forth under
"Rights of Unitholders."

       The Trustee may resign by executing an  instrument  in writing and filing
the same with the Sponsors, and mailing a copy of a notice of resignation to all
Unitholders. In such an event the Sponsors are obligated to

808758.2
                                      B-19

<PAGE>



appoint a successor  Trustee as soon as possible.  In  addition,  if the Trustee
becomes incapable of acting or becomes bankrupt or its affairs are taken over by
public authorities,  the Sponsors may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor
as provided in the Trust Agreement. Notice of such removal and appointment shall
be mailed to each Unitholder by the Sponsors. If upon resignation of the Trustee
no successor has been appointed and has accepted the  appointment  within thirty
days after notification,  the retiring Trustee may apply to a court of competent
jurisdiction  for the appointment of a successor.  The resignation or removal of
the  Trustee  becomes  effective  only when the  successor  Trustee  accepts its
appointment  as such  or  when a court  of  competent  jurisdiction  appoints  a
successor Trustee. Upon execution of a written acceptance of such appointment by
such successor Trustee,  all the rights,  powers,  duties and obligations of the
original Trustee shall vest in the successor.

       Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or with which it may
be consolidated,  or any corporation  resulting from any merger or consolidation
to which the  Trustee  shall be a party,  shall be the  successor  Trustee.  The
Trustee  must always be a banking  corporation  organized  under the laws of the
United States or any State and have at all times an aggregate  capital,  surplus
and undivided profits of not less than $2,500,000.

                           TRUST EXPENSES AND CHARGES

       Investors  will  reimburse  the  Sponsors  for  all or a  portion  of the
estimated  costs incurred in organizing  and offering the Trusts  (collectively,
the "organization  costs") -- including the cost of the initial  preparation and
execution of the Trust Agreement, registration of the Trusts and the Units under
the  Investment  Company  Act of 1940 and the  Securities  Act of 1933 and state
registration fees, the initial fees and expenses of the Trustee,  legal expenses
and other actual out-of-pocket  costs. The estimated  organization costs will be
paid  from the  assets  of the  Trusts  as of the  close of the  initial  public
offering period (which may be between 30 and 90 days). To the extent that actual
organization  costs  are  less  than  the  estimated  amount,  only  the  actual
organization costs will be deducted from the assets of the Trusts. To the extent
that actual  organization costs are greater than the estimated amount,  only the
estimated  organization  costs  included  in the Public  Offering  Price will be
reimbursed to the Sponsors. All advertising and selling expenses, as well as any
organizational costs not paid by the Trusts, will be borne by the Sponsors at no
cost to the Trusts.

       The Sponsors will  receive,  for  portfolio  supervisory  services to the
Trusts,  an Annual Fee in the  amount  set forth  under  "Summary  of  Essential
Information"  in  Part A.  The  Sponsors'  fee may  exceed  the  actual  cost of
providing portfolio supervisory services for the Trusts, but at no time will the
total amount received for portfolio  supervisory services rendered to all series
of the McLaughlin, Piven, Vogel Family of Trusts in any calendar year exceed the
aggregate  cost to the Sponsors of supplying  such  services in such year.  (See
"Trust Supervision.")

       The Trustee  will  receive,  for its ordinary  recurring  services to the
Trusts,  an annual fee in the  amount  set forth  under  "Summary  of  Essential
Information"  in Part A.  For a  discussion  of the  services  performed  by the
Trustee   pursuant  to  its   obligations   under  the  Trust   Agreement,   see
"Administration of the Trusts" and "Rights of Unitholders."

       The Trustee's fees applicable to the Trusts are payable as of each Record
Date from the Income Account of the Trusts to the extent funds are available and
then from the Principal  Account.  Both the Sponsors' and the Trustee's fees may
be  increased  without  approval of the  Unitholders  by amounts  not  exceeding
proportionate  increases  in  consumer  prices for  services  as measured by the
United States  Department of Labor's Consumer Price Index entitled "All Services
Less Rent."

       The  following  additional  charges are or may be incurred by the Trusts:
all expenses  (including counsel fees) of the Trustee incurred and advances made
in  connection  with its  activities  under the Trust  Agreement,  including the
expenses and costs of any action undertaken by the Trustee to protect the Trusts
and the rights and  interests  of the  Unitholders;  fees of the Trustee for any
extraordinary  services performed under the Trust Agreement;  indemnification of
the Trustee for any loss or liability  accruing to it without gross  negligence,
bad faith or willful  misconduct  on its part,  arising out of or in  connection
with its  acceptance or  administration  of the Trusts;  indemnification  of the
Sponsors for any losses, liabilities and expenses incurred in acting as sponsors
of the Trusts without gross negligence,  bad faith or willful  misconduct on its
part; and all taxes and other  governmental  charges imposed upon the Securities
or any part of the Trusts (no such taxes or charges are being  levied,  made or,
to the knowledge of the Sponsors,  contemplated).  The above expenses, including
the Trustee's  fees, when paid by or owing to the Trustee are secured by a first
lien on the Trusts to which such expenses are charged. In addition,  the Trustee
is empowered to sell the Securities in order to make funds  available to pay all
expenses.

       Unless the Sponsors otherwise direct, the accounts of the Trusts shall be
audited not less than annually by independent public accountants selected by the
Sponsors.  The expenses of the audit shall be an expense of the Trusts.  So long
as the Sponsors  maintain a secondary  market,  the Sponsors will bear any audit
expense which exceeds $.50 cents per 100 Units. Unitholders covered by the audit
during the year may  receive a copy of the  audited  financial  statements  upon
request.


                                REINVESTMENT PLAN

       Income  and  principal  distributions  on Units  (other  than  the  final
distribution in connection with the termination of the Trusts) may be reinvested
by  participating  in the Trusts'  Reinvestment  Plan. Under the plan, the Units
acquired for participants  will be either Units already held in inventory by the
Sponsors or new Units created by the Sponsors' deposit of Additional  Securities
as described in "The Trusts -- Deposit of Additional Securities" in this Part B.
Units  acquired by  reinvestment  will be subject to a reduced  sales  charge of
1.00%.  Investors should inform their broker when purchasing their Units if they
wish to participate in the Reinvestment  Plan.  Thereafter,  Unitholders  should
contact  their  broker if they wish to modify or  terminate  their  election  to
participate  in the  Reinvestment  Plan.  In order to  enable  a  Unitholder  to
participate in the Reinvestment Plan, with respect to a particular  distribution
on their Units,  such notice must be made at least three  business days prior to
the Record Date for such distribution. Each subsequent distribution of income or
principal  on the  participant's  Units  will be  automatically  applied  by the
Trustee to purchase  additional  Units of the Trusts.  The Sponsors  reserve the
right to demand,  modify or terminate the Reinvestment  Plan at any time without
prior notice.  The Reinvestment  Plan for the Trusts may not be available in all
states.


                                  OTHER MATTERS

       LEGAL  OPINIONS.  The  legality of the Units  offered  hereby and certain
matters  relating to Federal tax law have been passed upon by Battle Fowler LLP,
75 East 55th  Street,  New York,  New York  10022 as  counsel  for the  Sponsor.
Carter,  Ledyard & Milburn, Two Wall Street, New York, New York 10005 have acted
as counsel for the Trustee.

       INDEPENDENT AUDITORS. The Statement of Financial Condition, including the
Portfolio,  is included herein in reliance upon the report of Ernst & Young LLP,
independent  auditors,  and  upon  the  authority  of said  firm as  experts  in
accounting and auditing.

       PERFORMANCE  INFORMATION.  Total returns,  average  annualized returns or
cumulative  returns for various  periods of the strategy,  the related index and
the Trusts may be included from time to time in advertisements, sales literature
and reports to current or prospective  investors.  Total return shows changes in
Unit price during the period plus any  dividends and capital  gains,  divided by
the  original  public  offering  price  as of the date of  calculation.  Average
annualized  returns show the average  return for stated periods of longer than a
year. Sales material may also include an illustration of the cumulative  results
of like annual  investments in the strategy  during an  accumulation  period and
like  annual  withdrawals  during a  distribution  period.  Figures  for  actual
portfolios will reflect all applicable  expenses and, unless  otherwise  stated,
the maximum  sales  charge.  No provision is made for any income taxes  payable.
Similar figures may be given for the Trusts  applying the investment  strategies
to  other  indexes.  Returns  may  also be  shown  on a  combined  basis.  Trust
performance may be compared to performance on a total return basis of the Nasdaq
or similar index, or performance  data from Lipper  Analytical  Services,  Inc.,
Morningstar Publications, Inc. and Center for Research in Security Prices (CRSP)
at the  University  of  Chicago  or from  publications  such as The Wall  Street
Journal,  Money, The New York Times, U.S. News and World Report,  Business Week,
Forbes or  Fortune.  As with other  performance  data,  performance  comparisons
should not be considered  representative of the Trusts' relative performance for
any future period.

Pending  the  approval  of  the  National   Association  of  Securities  Dealers
Regulation,  the Sponsors may also include, in advertisements,  sales literature
and reports to current or prospective investors, the performance of hypothetical
portfolios to which the Sponsors have applied the same investment objectives and
selection strategies,  as well as back-tested data of the historical performance
of such strategies,  as described in "The Trust -- The Securities" and which the
Sponsors  intend to apply to the  selection of securities  for the Trusts.  This
performance  information  is intended to illustrate  the Trusts'  strategies and
should not be interpreted as indicative of the future performance of the Trusts.
