TAX EXEMPT SECURITIES TRUST
INTERMEDIATE TERM TRUST 36
(A UNIT INVESTMENT TRUST)
================================================================================
A final prospectus for a prior Series of Tax Exempt Securities Trust
is hereby incorporated by reference and used as a preliminary prospectus for Tax
Exempt Securities Trust Series, Intermediate Term Trust 36. Except as indicated
below, the narrative information and structure of the final prospectus which
includes the new Trust will be substantially the same as that of the previous
prospectus. Although the previous prospectus includes the specific trusts
indicated therein, the specific trusts included with this new Trust when
deposited will differ from such previous trusts. Information with respect to
this Trust, including pricing, the size and composition of the Trust portfolio,
the number of units of the Trust, dates and summary information regarding the
characteristics of securities to be deposited in the Trust is not now available
and will be different from that shown since each trust has a unique portfolio.
Accordingly, the information contained herein with regard to the previous Trusts
should be considered as being included for informational purposes only. The
estimated current return and long-term return for the Trust will depend on the
interest rates and offering side evaluation of the securities in the Trust and
may vary materially from those of previous trusts. Investors should contact
account executives of the underwriters who will be informed of the expected
effective date of this Trust and who will be supplied with complete information
with respect to such Trust on the day of and immediately prior to the
effectiveness of the registration statement relating to units of the Trust.
The Securities and Exchange Commission has not approved or
disapproved these securities or passed upon the adequacy of this Prospectus. Any
representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
The information in this Prospectus is not complete and may be changed. We may
not sell these securities until the registration statement filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission is effective. This Prospectus is not an offer
to sell the securities and it is not soliciting an offer to buy these securities
in any state where the offer or sale is not permitted.
