NUVEEN  Tax-Exempt Unit Trusts
             PROSPECTUS
            Series 719
             March 11, 1994
    
INTEREST  INCOME TO THE  TRUSTS AND TO  UNITHOLDERS, IN THE  OPINION OF COUNSEL,
UNDER EXISTING LAW IS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAX. CAPITAL GAINS, IF ANY, ARE
SUBJECT TO TAX. IN ADDITION, INTEREST INCOME OF STATE TRUSTS IS, IN THE  OPINION
OF  COUNSEL,  EXEMPT,  TO THE  EXTENT  INDICATED,  FROM STATE  AND  LOCAL TAXES.
INTEREST INCOME OF ANY TRUST  OTHER THAN A STATE TRUST  MAY BE SUBJECT TO  STATE
AND LOCAL TAXES.
 
CURRENTLY  OFFERED AT PUBLIC OFFERING PRICE PLUS INTEREST ACCRUED TO THE DATE OF
SETTLEMENT. MINIMUM PURCHASE--EITHER $5,000 OR 50 UNITS, WHICHEVER IS LESS.
 
   
THE NUVEEN  TAX-EXEMPT  UNIT  TRUST,  SERIES 719  consists  of  five  underlying
separate  unit investment trusts  designated as Maryland  Traditional Trust 292,
National Insured Trust 266, Georgia Insured Trust 35, New York Insured Trust 213
and Pennsylvania Insured Trust  177. Each Trust  initially consists of  delivery
statements relating to contracts to purchase Bonds and, thereafter, will consist
of  a diversified portfolio of obligations issued  by or on behalf of states and
territories of  the United  States and  authorities and  political  subdivisions
thereof (see SCHEDULES OF INVESTMENTS), the interest on which is, in the opinion
of  bond counsel to the  issuers, exempt from Federal  income tax under existing
law. In addition, the interest on Bonds  in each State Trust is, in the  opinion
of  bond counsel  to the  issuers of the  obligations, exempt  from such State's
income taxes, if any. All obligations in each Traditional Trust are rated in the
category "A" or  better by Standard  & Poor's Corporation  or Moody's  Investors
Service,  Inc. on the Date of Deposit. All obligations in each Insured Trust are
covered by  policies of  insurance obtained  from the  Municipal Bond  Investors
Assurance  Corporation guaranteeing payment of  principal and interest when due.
All such policies of insurance remain  effective so long as the obligations  are
outstanding.  As a result of such insurance,  the Bonds in each portfolio of the
Insured Trusts have  received a rating  of "Aaa" by  Moody's Investors  Service,
Inc.  and the Bonds in the Insured Trusts  and the Units of each such Trust have
received a rating of "AAA" by  Standard & Poor's Corporation. INSURANCE  RELATES
ONLY  TO THE BONDS IN THE INSURED TRUSTS  AND NOT TO THE UNITS OFFERED HEREBY OR
TO THEIR MARKET VALUE. (See Section 5.)
    
 
THE OBJECTIVES of the Trusts are  tax-exempt income and conservation of  capital
through  a diversified  investment in tax-exempt  Bonds. (SEE SECTIONS  2, 3 AND
11.) The payment of interest and  the preservation of principal are, of  course,
dependent upon the continuing ability of the issuers of Bonds and of any insurer
thereof  to meet  their obligations thereunder.  There is no  guarantee that the
Trusts' objectives will be achieved.
 
DISTRIBUTIONS of  interest received  by each  Trust will  be made  semi-annually
unless  the Unitholder elects to receive them monthly or quarterly. (SEE SECTION
13.) Distribution of funds in the Principal Account, if any, will ordinarily  be
made semi-annually.
 
FOR  ESTIMATED LONG TERM RETURNS AND ESTIMATED CURRENT RETURNS to Unitholders in
each Trust on the  business day prior to  the Date of Deposit.  (SEE PAGE 3  AND
SECTION 9.)
 
THE  PUBLIC OFFERING PRICE  per Unit of  each Trust during  the initial offering
period is equal to a pro rata share of the OFFERING prices of the Bonds in  such
Trust's  portfolio plus  a sales charge  of up  to 4.90% of  the Public Offering
Price (equivalent to  5.152% of the  net amount invested);  the sales charge  is
somewhat  lower on Trusts  with lesser average maturities.  (SEE SECTION 6.) The
Secondary Market Public Offering Price per Unit for each Trust will be equal  to
a  pro rata share of the  sum of BID prices of the  Bonds in such Trust plus the
sales charges determined based on the number of years remaining to the  maturity
of  each  Bond. Accrued  interest from  the  preceding Record  Date to,  but not
including, the settlement date is added to the Public Offering Price. The  sales
charge  is reduced on a graduated scale for sales involving at least $100,000 or
1,000 Units and  will be applied  on whichever  basis is more  favorable to  the
purchaser. (SEE SECTION 6.)
 
A  UNITHOLDER MAY REDEEM UNITS at the office of the Trustee, United States Trust
Company of New York, at prices based upon the BID prices of the Bonds. The price
received  upon  redemption  may  be  more  or  less  than  the  amount  paid  by
Unitholders,  depending upon the  value of the  Bonds on the  date of tender for
redemption. (SEE  SECTION 19.)  The Sponsor,  although not  required to  do  so,
intends  to make a secondary market for the  Units of the Trusts at prices based
upon the BID  prices of the  Bonds in  the respective Trusts.  (SEE SECTION  7.)
RETAIN THIS PROSPECTUS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
 
THESE  SECURITIES HAVE  NOT BEEN APPROVED  OR DISAPPROVED BY  THE SECURITIES AND
EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY  STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION  NOR HAS THE  SECURITIES
AND  EXCHANGE  COMMISSION OR  ANY STATE  SECURITIES  COMMISSION PASSED  UPON THE
ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A
CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

    The  Estimated Long Term Return for each Trust is a measure of the return to
the investor earned  over the estimated  life of the  Trust. The Estimated  Long
Term  Return represents an  average of the  yields to maturity  (or call) of the
Bonds in  the Trust's  portfolio  calculated in  accordance with  accepted  bond
practice and adjusted to reflect expenses and sales charges. Under accepted bond
practice,  tax-exempt bonds  are customarily  offered to  investors on  a "yield
price" basis, which involves computation of  yield to maturity or to an  earlier
call date (whichever produces the lower yield), and which takes into account not
only the interest payable on the bonds but also the amortization or accretion to
a  specified date of any premium over  or discount from the par (maturity) value
in the bond's  purchase price. In  calculating Estimated Long  Term Return,  the
average  yield for  the Trust's  portfolio is  derived by  weighting each Bond's
yield by the market value of the Bond and by the amount of time remaining to the
date to which the Bond is priced. Once the average portfolio yield is  computed,
this  figure is then reduced to reflect estimated expenses and the effect of the
maximum sales  charge paid  by investors.  The Estimated  Long Term  Return  and
Estimated  Current Return  calculations do not  take into account  the delays in
payments to Unitholders  for the first  few months of  Trust operations, and  it
also  does not  take into account  the difference  in the timing  of payments to
Unitholders who choose quarterly or  semi-annual plans of distribution, each  of
which will reduce the return.
 
    Estimated  Current Return  is computed by  dividing the  Net Annual Interest
Income per Unit by the Public Offering Price. In contrast to Estimated Long Term
Return, Estimated Current Return does not reflect the amortization of premium or
accretion of discount, if any, on the Bonds in the Trust's portfolio. Net Annual
Interest Income per Unit is calculated by dividing the annual interest income to
the Trust, less estimated expenses, by the number of Units outstanding.
 
    Net Annual Interest  Income per  Unit, used to  calculate Estimated  Current
Return,  will vary  with changes  in fees  and expenses  of the  Trustee and the
Evaluator and with the redemption, maturity, exchange or sale of Bonds. A  Trust
may  experience expenses and  portfolio changes different  from those assumed in
the calculation of Estimated  Long Term Return. There  thus can be no  assurance
that  the Estimated  Current Returns or  the Estimated Long  Term Returns quoted
herein will be realized in the future. Both the Estimated Current Return and the
Estimated Long Term Return quoted  herein are based on  the market value of  the
underlying  Bonds on the business  day prior to the  Date of Deposit; subsequent
calculations of these performance measures will reflect the then current  market
value  of the underlying Bonds and may be higher or lower. For more information,
see Section 9. The Sponsor will provide estimated cash flow information relating
to a Trust without  charge to each  potential investor in  a Trust who  receives
this  prospectus and makes  an oral or  written request to  the Sponsor for such
information.

THE NUVEEN TAX-EXEMPT UNIT TRUST
   
SERIES 719
    
 
   
1.  WHAT IS THE NUVEEN TAX-EXEMPT UNIT TRUST, SERIES 719?
    
 
   
Series 719 of the Nuveen  Tax-Exempt Unit Trust is one  of a series of  separate
but  similar  investment companies  created  by the  Sponsor,  each of  which is
designated by a different Series number. This Series consists of five underlying
separate  unit  investment  trusts,  combined  under  one  trust  indenture  and
agreement,  designated Maryland  Traditional Trust  292, National  Insured Trust
266, Georgia  Insured Trust  35, New  York Insured  Trust 213  and  Pennsylvania
Insured Trust 177. The various trusts are collectively referred to herein as the
"Trusts"; the trusts in which few or none of the Bonds are insured are sometimes
referred  to as the "Traditional  Trusts", the trusts in  which all of the Bonds
are insured  as described  herein  are sometimes  referred  to as  the  "Insured
Trusts",  and  the state  trusts (both  Traditional  and Insured)  are sometimes
referred to as the "State Trusts." This Series was created under the laws of the
State of New York pursuant  to a Trust Indenture  and Agreement dated March  11,
1994  (the "Indenture") between  John Nuveen &  Co. Incorporated (the "Sponsor")
and United States Trust Company of New York (the "Trustee").
    
 
   
    The Sponsor has deposited with  the Trustee delivery statements relating  to
contracts  for the  purchase of municipal  debt obligations  together with funds
represented by an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a major commercial bank
in the amount, including accrued interest,  required for their purchase (or  the
obligations  themselves) in the  principal amount of  $24,000,000 (the "Bonds"),
which initially constitute the  underlying securities of  the Trusts. Bonds  may
include  fixed rate obligations with regularly scheduled interest payments, zero
coupon bonds and  stripped obligations, which  represent evidences of  ownership
interests with respect to either a principal payment or a payment of interest on
a  tax-exempt obligation  ("Stripped Obligations"). See  "SUMMARY OF PORTFOLIOS"
and "GENERAL  TRUST INFORMATION"  for  a discussion  of  zero coupon  bonds  and
Stripped  Obligations. The  following principal  amounts were  deposited in each
Trust: $3,500,000 in the Maryland Traditional Trust, $10,000,000 in the National
Insured Trust, $3,500,000 in the Georgia Insured Trust,
    
 
                                       6
<PAGE>
   
$3,500,000 in the  New York  Insured Trust  and $3,500,000  in the  Pennsylvania
Insured  Trust. Some of the delivery statements  may relate to contracts for the
purchase of "when issued" or other Bonds  with delivery dates after the date  of
settlement  for a purchase  made on the  Date of Deposit.  See the "Schedules of
Investments" and Section 4. For a discussion of the Sponsor's obligations in the
event of a failure of any contract for the purchase of any of the Bonds and  its
limited  right to  substitute other  bonds to  replace any  failed contract, see
Section 4.
    
 
    Payment of interest on the Bonds in each Insured Trust, and of principal  at
maturity,  is guaranteed under policies of  insurance obtained by the Sponsor or
by the issuers of the Bonds. (See  Section 5.) AS A GENERAL MATTER, NEITHER  THE
ISSUER  NOR THE SPONSOR HAS OBTAINED INSURANCE  WITH RESPECT TO THE BONDS IN ANY
TRADITIONAL TRUST.
 
   
    The Trustee has delivered to the  Sponsor registered Units for 35,000  Units
of  the Maryland Traditional Trust, 100,000 Units of the National Insured Trust,
35,000 Units of the Georgia Insured Trust, 35,000 Units of the New York  Insured
Trust  and  35,000  Units  of the  Pennsylvania  Insured  Trust,  which together
represent ownership of the entire Series, and which are offered for sale by this
Prospectus. Each Unit of a Trust  represents a fractional undivided interest  in
the  principal and net  income of such Trust  in the ratio of  10 Units for each
$1,000 principal value of Bonds initially deposited in such Trust. Only Units of
the National  Insured Trust  are offered  for sale  to Virginia  and  Washington
residents by this Prospectus.
    
 
2.  WHAT ARE THE OBJECTIVES OF THE TRUSTS?
 
The  objectives of the Trusts are income  exempt from Federal income tax and, in
the case of State Trusts, where applicable, state income and intangibles  taxes,
and  conservation of capital, through an  investment in obligations issued by or
on behalf of  states and territories  of the United  States and authorities  and
political  subdivisions thereof,  the interest  on which  is, in  the opinion of
recognized bond counsel  to the  issuing governmental  authorities, exempt  from
Federal income tax under existing law. Bonds in any State Trust have been issued
primarily  by  or on  behalf of  the State  for  which such  Trust is  named and
counties, municipalities, authorities  and political  subdivisions thereof,  the
interest  on which Bonds is, in the opinion of bond counsel, exempt from Federal
and certain state income tax and  intangibles taxes, if any, for purchasers  who
qualify  as residents of that State.  Insurance guaranteeing the timely payment,
when due, of all principal and interest  on the Bonds in each Insured Trust  has
been obtained by the Sponsor or by the issuers of such Bonds from Municipal Bond
Investors  Assurance  Corporation,  and  as  a  result  of  such  insurance  the
obligations in the Insured Trusts are rated "Aaa" by Moody's Investors  Service,
Inc. and "AAA" by Standard & Poor's Corporation. (SEE SECTION 5) All obligations
in each Traditional Trust are rated in the category "A" or better (SP-1 or MIG 2
or  better  in the  case  of short  term obligations  included  in a  Short Term
Traditional Trust)  by  Standard  &  Poor's  Corporation  or  Moody's  Investors
Service,  Inc.  (including  provisional or  conditional  ratings).  In addition,
certain Bonds  in  certain  Traditional  Trusts  may  be  covered  by  insurance
guaranteeing  the timely payment, when due,  of all principal and interest. (SEE
SECTION 3.) The  portfolios of National  and State Trusts  consist of  long-term
(approximately 15 to 40 year maturities) obligations; those of Long Intermediate
Trusts  consist  of  intermediate to  long  term  (approximately 11  to  19 year
maturities) obligations; those  of Intermediate Trusts  consist of  intermediate
term  (approximately  5  to  15 year  maturities)  obligations;  those  of Short
Intermediate Trusts consist of short to intermediate term (approximately 3 to  7
year  maturities) obligations; and  those of Short Term  Trusts consist of short
term (approximately 1 to 5 year maturities) obligations.
 
                                       7
<PAGE>
There is, of course, no guarantee that the Trusts' objectives will be  achieved.
For  a  comparison of  net after-tax  return  for various  tax brackets  see the
"Taxable  Equivalent  Estimated   Current  Return  Tables"   included  in   this
Prospectus.
 
    Each  Trust consists  of fixed-rate  municipal debt  obligations. Because of
this an investment in a Trust should be made with an understanding of the  risks
which an investment in such debt obligations may entail, including the risk that
the  value of the debt obligations and  therefore of the Units will decline with
increases in  interest  rates. In  general,  the  longer the  period  until  the
maturity  of a  Bond, the more  sensitive its  value will be  to fluctuations in
interest rates. During the past decade, there have been substantial fluctuations
in interest  rates, and,  accordingly, in  the value  of debt  obligations.  The
Sponsor cannot predict whether such fluctuations will recur.
 
3.  SUMMARY OF PORTFOLIOS
 
In  selecting  Bonds for  the respective  Trusts,  the following  factors, among
others, were considered:  (i) the Standard  & Poor's Corporation  rating of  the
Bonds  or the Moody's Investors Service, Inc. rating of the Bonds (see Section 2
for a description  of minimum rating  standards), (ii) the  prices of the  Bonds
relative   to  other  bonds  of  comparable  quality  and  maturity,  (iii)  the
diversification of Bonds as to purpose of issue and location of issuer, (iv) the
maturity dates of the Bonds, and (v) in the case of the Insured Trusts only, the
availability of Municipal Bond Investors Assurance Corporation insurance on such
Bonds.
 
    In order for Bonds in the Insured  Trusts to be eligible for Municipal  Bond
Investors Assurance Corporation insurance, they must have credit characteristics
which,  in the opinion of the insurer,  would qualify them as "investment grade"
obligations. Insurance is not  a substitute for the  basic credit of an  issuer,
but  supplements the existing credit  and provides additional security therefor.
(SEE SECTION 5.)
 
    Certain bonds may carry a "mandatory put" (also referred to as a  "mandatory
tender"  or "mandatory repurchase") feature pursuant to which the holder of such
bonds will receive payment of the full principal amount thereof on a stated date
prior to the maturity date unless  such holder affirmatively acts to retain  the
bond.  Under the Indenture,  the Trustee does  not have the  authority to act to
retain Bonds with  such features; accordingly,  it will receive  payment of  the
full  principal amount of any such Bonds on the stated put date and such date is
therefore treated as the maturity date of such Bonds in selecting Bonds for  the
respective  Trusts and for  purposes of calculating the  average maturity of the
Bonds in any Trust.

MARYLAND TRADITIONAL TRUST 292
    
 
   
    The  Portfolio of Maryland  Traditional Trust 292  consists of 7 obligations
issued by  entities located  in Maryland.  Two Bonds  in the  Trust are  general
obligations  of the  governmental entities  issuing them  and are  backed by the
taxing powers thereof. Five Bonds in the  Trust are payable as to principal  and
interest  from  the  income of  a  specific  project or  authority  and  are not
supported by the issuer's power to levy taxes. The sources of payment for  these
Bonds are divided as follows: Electrical System Revenue, 1; Health Care Facility
Revenue,  2;  Multi-Family Housing  Revenue, 1;  Miscellaneous Revenue,  1. Five
issues in the  Trust were  rated by Standard  & Poor's  Corporation as  follows:
4--AAA,  1-- A+. Seven issues  were rated by Moody's  Investors Service, Inc. as
follows: 4--Aaa, 1--Aa, 1--A1, 1--A.
    
 
   
    At the Date of Deposit,  the average maturity of  the Bonds in the  Maryland
Traditional Trust is 26.3 years. The average maturity of the Bonds in a Trust is
calculated based upon the stated maturities of the Bonds in such Trust (or, with
respect  to Bonds for  which funds or  securities have been  placed in escrow to
redeem such Bonds on a stated call date, based upon such call date). The average
maturity of the Bonds in a Trust may  increase or decrease from time to time  as
Bonds mature or are called or sold.
    
 
   
    Approximately  28.6% of the  aggregate principal amount of  the Bonds in the
Trust (accounting for approximately 26.5% of the aggregate offering price of the
Bonds)   are    original   issue    discount   bonds.    See   "GENERAL    TRUST
INFORMATION--ORIGINAL  ISSUE  DISCOUNT  BONDS AND  STRIPPED  OBLIGATIONS"  for a
discussion of the  characteristics of  such bonds  and of  the risks  associated
therewith.
    
 
    Approximately  29% of  the aggregate  principal amount  of the  Bonds in the
Trust are  obligations of  issuers  whose revenues  are primarily  derived  from
hospitals  or other health care services, all  of which is covered by insurance.
The source  of payment  for these  Bonds  is insured  by a  commercial  insurer.
Consequently,  the credit ratings of such Bonds essentially reflect the strength
of the insurance or  guarantee and, depending upon  the actual structure of  the
bond  issue, are typically  rated "Aaa" or "Aa"  by Moody's or  "AAA" or "AA" by
Standard & Poor's.
 
    For a discussion of  the risks associated with  investments in the bonds  of
various issuers, see "General Trust Information" in this section.
 
   
    The  Sponsor entered  into contracts to  acquire the Bonds  between March 8,
1994 and March 10, 1994. The following summarizes certain information about  the
Bonds as of the business day prior to the Date of Deposit:

    Neither   cost  to  Sponsor  nor  profit   (or  loss)  to  Sponsor  reflects
underwriting profits or losses received or  incurred by the Sponsor through  its
participation   in  underwriting  syndicates.  An  underwriter  or  underwriting
syndicate purchases bonds  from the issuer  on a negotiated  or competitive  bid
basis  as principal with  the motive of  marketing such bonds  to investors at a
profit. The Sponsor did not participate as  either the sole underwriter or as  a
manager  or member of a syndicate that  acted as the original underwriter of any
of the Bonds.

    Unitholders may  elect to  have interest  distributions made  on a  monthly,
quarterly or semi-annual basis. The interest on the Bonds initially deposited in
the  Maryland Traditional Trust, less estimated expenses, is estimated to accrue
at the  rate  of  $.01498  per  Unit per  day  under  the  semi-annual  plan  of
distribution,  $.01493 per Unit per day under the quarterly plan of distribution
and $.01484 per  Unit per  day under  the monthly  plan of  distribution. It  is
anticipated  that the amount of interest to be distributed per Unit in each year
under each plan  of distribution will  initially be substantially  equal to  the
Estimated Net Annual Interest Income per Unit for that plan.
    
 
    Details of interest distributions per Unit of the Maryland Traditional Trust
under  the various plans appear in the  following table based upon estimated Net

TAX STATUS--MARYLAND TRADITIONAL TRUST
 
    For  a discussion  of the  Federal tax status  of income  earned on Maryland
Traditional Trust Units, see Section 11.
 
    The  assets   of   the   Maryland  Traditional   Trust   will   consist   of
interest-bearing  obligations issued by  or on behalf of  the State of Maryland,
its political subdivisions and authorities and, provided the interest thereon is
exempt from State income  taxes by the  laws or treaties  of the United  States,
obligations  issued  by  or  on  behalf of  the  United  States'  territories or
possessions, including Puerto Rico, Guam and the Virgin Islands, their political
subdivisions and authorities (the "Maryland Bonds").
 
    In the  opinion of  Venable, Baetjer  and Howard,  special counsel  for  the
Series for Maryland tax matters, under existing law:
 
        For   Maryland  state  and  local  income  tax  purposes,  the  Maryland
    Traditional Trust will not be taxable  as an association, and the income  of
    the  Maryland  Traditional  Trust  will  be treated  as  the  income  of the
    Unitholders.
 
        For Maryland  state and  local tax  purposes, interest  on the  Maryland
    Bonds which is exempt from Maryland state and local income tax when received
    by  the Maryland Traditional Trust, and  which would be exempt from Maryland
    state and local income tax
 
                                       10
<PAGE>
    if received directly by a Unitholder,  will retain its status as  tax-exempt
    interest  when received by the Maryland Traditional Trust and distributed to
    the Unitholders.
 
        Interest derived from  the Maryland  Traditional Trust  by a  Unitholder
    with  respect to the Maryland Bonds will not be subject to Maryland state or
    local income  taxes;  provided that  interest  or profit  derived  from  the
    Maryland Traditional Trust by a financial institution, as defined in Section
    8-101(c)  of the Tax-General Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland, will
    be subject to the  Maryland state franchise  tax on financial  institutions,
    except  to the  extent such interest  is expressly exempt  from the Maryland
    state franchise tax  by the statutes  which authorize the  issuance of  such
    Maryland  Bonds  (See  Section  8-204  of the  Tax  General  Article  of the
    Annotated Code of Maryland).
 
        A Unitholder will not be subject  to Maryland state or local income  tax
    with  respect  to gain  realized when  Maryland Bonds  held in  the Maryland
    Traditional Trust  are sold,  redeemed,  or paid  at maturity,  except  with
    respect  to gain realized upon a sale,  redemption or payment at maturity of
    such Maryland  Bonds  as  are  issued  by or  on  behalf  of  United  States
    territories  or possessions,  their political  subdivisions and authorities;
    such gain will equal the proceeds  of sale, redemption or payment, less  the
    tax basis of the Maryland Bonds (adjusted to reflect (a) the amortization of
    Bond  premium or discount,  and (b) the deposit  in the Maryland Traditional
    Trust after the Unitholder's settlement date of Maryland Bonds with  accrued
    interest).
 
        Although  the  matter  is  not  free  from  doubt,  gain  realized  by a
    Unitholder from  the redemption,  sale or  other disposition  of a  Maryland
    Traditional  Trust Unit  (i) will  be subject  to Maryland  state income tax
    except in the case of individual Unitholders who are not Maryland residents,
    and (ii)  will be  subject  to Maryland  local income  tax  in the  case  of
    individual Unitholders who are Maryland residents.
 
        If  interest on  indebtedness incurred or  continued by  a Unitholder to
    purchase Units  in the  Maryland  Traditional Trust  is not  deductible  for
    Federal  income tax  purposes, it  will also  be nondeductible  for Maryland
    state income tax purposes and, if applicable, local income tax purposes.
 
        Maryland Traditional Trust Units will be subject to Maryland inheritance
    and estate tax  only if  held by  Maryland residents.  Neither the  Maryland
    Bonds  nor the Maryland Traditional Trust  Units will be subject to Maryland
    personal property tax, sales tax or use tax.
 
ECONOMIC FACTORS--MARYLAND
 
    Some of the significant financial considerations relating to the investments
of the  Maryland Traditional  Trust are  summarized below.  This information  is
derived principally from official statements and preliminary official statements
released  on or before May 13, 1992,  relating to issues of Maryland obligations
and does not purport to be a complete description.
 
    The State's total expenditures  for the fiscal years  ending June 30,  1990,
June  30, 1991  and June  30, 1992  were $11.019,  $11.304 and  $11.657 billion,
respectively. As of January 13, 1993,  it was estimated that total  expenditures
for fiscal 1993 would be $11.897 billion. The State's General Fund, representing
approximately  55%-60% of each year's total budget, had a surplus on a budgetary
basis of $57 million in fiscal year 1990, $55 thousand in fiscal year 1991,  and
a deficit of $56 million in fiscal 1992. The Governor of Maryland reduced fiscal
 
                                       11
<PAGE>
1993  appropriations by $56 million to offset the fiscal 1992 deficit. The State
Constitution mandates a balanced budget.
 
    The 1993 fiscal year budget was  enacted in April 1992 which, together  with
legislation  enacted in 1992,  involved the transfer of  certain funds, new fees
and taxes, and alteration of certain statutory State expenditure programs.  When
the  1993 budget was enacted, it was  estimated that the General Fund surplus at
June 30, 1993 would  be approximately $10 million  on a budgetary basis.  During
the final months of fiscal year 1992 and the initial months of fiscal year 1993,
collections of State revenues were below the levels estimated at the time of the
adoption  of the 1993 budget.  The Governor proposed a  cost containment plan to
address this  revenue shortfall  and to  provide reserves  to finance  potential
deficiency  appropriations. On  September 30,  1992, the  Board of  Public Works
approved the Governor's proposal to  reduce General Fund appropriations by  $168
million.  The Board  of Public  Works also  approved the  Governor's proposal to
reduce the special fund appropriations  for the Department of Transportation  by
$30  million.  Legislation was  introduced at  the 1993  session of  the General
Assembly to  transfer this  $30 million  to the  General Fund,  as well  as  $10
million from various other special funds. In a special session held in November,
1992,  the  General Assembly  enacted legislation  reducing  State aid  to local
governments by  $147 million.  In  addition, other  elements of  the  governor's
original  cost  containment plan  are  in the  process  of being  implemented or
revised.
 
    The public indebtedness  of Maryland  and its  instrumentalities is  divided
into  three  basic types.  The  State issues  general  obligation bonds,  to the
payment of which the State ad  valorem property tax is exclusively pledged,  for
capital improvements and for various State-sponsored projects. The Department of
Transportation   of  Maryland  issues  limited,  special  obligation  bonds  for
transportation purposes payable primarily from specific, fixed-rate excise taxes
and other  revenues related  mainly to  highway use.  Certain authorities  issue
obligations  payable solely from  specific non-tax enterprise  fund revenues and
for which  the  State  has  no  liability and  has  given  no  moral  obligation
assurance.
 
    According  to the most recent available ratings, general obligation bonds of
the State of Maryland are rated "Aaa" by Moody's and "AAA" by Standard &  Poor's
Corporation,  as  are those  of Baltimore  County,  a separate  political entity
surrounding Baltimore  City.  General  obligation bonds  of  Montgomery  County,
located in the suburbs of Washington, D.C., are rated "Aaa" by Moody's and "AAA"
by  Standard & Poor's  Corporation. General obligation  bonds of Prince George's
County, the second largest metropolitan county, which is also in the suburbs  of
Washington,  D.C., are  rated "A1"  by Moody's  and "AA-"  by Standard  & Poor's
Corporation. The general obligation bonds of  those other counties of the  State
that  are rated  by Moody's carry  an "A" rating  or better except  for those of
Allegany County,  which  are rated  "Baa".  The most  populous  municipality  in
Maryland  is Baltimore City, the general obligaton bonds of which are rated "A1"
by Moody's and "A"  by Standard & Poor's  Corporation. The majority of  Maryland
Health  and Higher  Education Authority  and State  Department of Transportation
revenue bond issues have received an "A" rating or better from Moody's.
 
    While the ratings and other  factors mentioned above indicate that  Maryland
and  its principal subdivisions  and agencies are addressing  the effects of the
economic recession and, overall, are in satisfactory economic health, there can,
of course,  be no  assurance that  this will  continue or  that particular  bond
issues  may not be adversely  affected by changes in  state or local economic or
political conditions.

MARYLAND TAXABLE ESTIMATED CURRENT RETURN TABLE
 
    The following tables show the approximate taxable estimated current  returns
for  individuals  that are  equivalent to  tax-exempt estimated  current returns
under combined Federal and  state taxes, using  published 1994 marginal  Federal
tax  rates and marginal state tax rates  currently available and scheduled to be
in effect*.  The  tables  incorporate  increased  tax  rates  for  higher-income
taxpayers  that were included in the  Revenue Reconciliation Act of 1993. Except
as indicated below, for cases in which more than one state bracket falls  within
a  Federal  bracket, the  highest  state bracket  is  combined with  the Federal
bracket. The combined state and Federal tax brackets shown reflect the fact that
state tax payments are currently deductible for Federal tax purposes. The tables
illustrate what  you would  have to  earn on  taxable investments  to equal  the
tax-exempt  estimated current return  for your income  tax bracket. A taxpayer's
marginal tax rate is affected by both his taxable income and his adjusted  gross
income.  Locate  your adjusted  gross  and your  taxable  income (which  is your
adjusted gross income  reduced by  any deductions and  exemptions), then  locate
your  tax  bracket based  on  joint or  single tax  filing.  Read across  to the
equivalent taxable estimated current return you would need to match the tax-free
income.

     * These tables approximate the effect of the exemption of distributions  of
tax-exempt  income from  the Maryland Trust  from county taxes,  assuming a rate
equal to  50% of  the applicable  Maryland state  income tax  rate. In  general,
Maryland   local  income  taxes  imposed  by   various  counties  are  equal  to
approximately 50% of the state  income tax liability, although Worcester  County
currently imposes an income tax equal to 30% of the state income tax liability.
 
        1  The  table  reflects  the  effect  of  the  limitations  on  itemized
deductions and  the deduction  for personal  exemptions. They  were designed  to
phase  out certain  benefits of  these deductions  for higher  income taxpayers.
These limitations, in  effect, raise  the current maximum  marginal Federal  tax
rate  to  approximately 44.0  percent for  taxpayers filing  a joint  return and
entitled to  four personal  exemptions  and to  approximately 41.0  percent  for
 
                                       13
<PAGE>
taxpayers  filing a single return entitled to only one personal exemption. These
limitations are  subject to  certain maximums,  which depend  on the  number  of
exemptions  claimed and the total amount  of the taxpayer's itemized deductions.
For example, the limitation on itemized deductions will not cause a taxpayer  to
lose   more  than  80%  of  his  allowable  itemized  deductions,  with  certain
exceptions.
 
        2 Federal tax rate reverts to 36.0% after the 80% cap on the  limitation
on itemized deductions has been met.
 
        3  Federal tax rate reverts to 39.6% after the 80% cap on the limitation
on itemized deductions has been met.
 
    A comparison of  tax-free and equivalent  taxable estimated current  returns
with  the returns on various  taxable investments is one  element to consider in
making an  investment  decision.  The Sponsor  may  from  time to  time  in  its
advertising  and sales materials  compare the then  current estimated returns on
the Trust and returns over specified periods on other similar Nuveen Trusts with
returns on taxable investments such as corporate or U.S. Government bonds,  bank
CD's  and  money  market accounts  or  money  market funds,  each  of  which has
investment characteristics  that  may  differ  from those  of  the  Trust.  U.S.
Government  bonds, for example, are  backed by the full  faith and credit of the
U.S. Government and bank CD's and money market accounts are insured by an agency
of the federal government. Money market accounts and money market funds  provide
stability  of principal, but pay interest at  rates that vary with the condition
of the short-term debt market. The  investment characteristics of the Trust  are
described more fully elsewhere in this Prospectus.

NATIONAL INSURED TRUST 266
    
   
    The  Portfolio  of  National Insured  Trust  266  consists of  12  long term
(approximately 15 to 40 year maturities) obligations issued by entities  located
in  9 states. Twelve Bonds in the Trust are payable as to principal and interest
from the income of a specific project or authority and are not supported by  the
issuer's power to levy taxes. The sources of payment for these Bonds are divided
as  follows: Dedicated-Tax Supported Revenue, 1; College and University Revenue,
1; Electrical System Revenue, 3;  Health Care Facility Revenue, 3;  Multi-Family
Housing  Revenue,  1;  Resource  Recovery  Revenue,  1;  Transportation Facility
Revenue, 1; Water and/or  Sewer Revenue, 1.  All of the Bonds  in the Trust,  as
insured,  are rated  AAA by  Standard &  Poor's Corporation  and Aaa  by Moody's
Investors Service, Inc. Twenty-two percent of  the principal amount of Bonds  in
the  Trust consists of issues of entities located in the State of Illinois; such
concentration may involve more  risk than if such  Bonds were issued by  issuers
located in several states.
    
 
   
    At  the Date of Deposit,  the average maturity of  the Bonds in the National
Insured Trust is 28.0  years. The average  maturity of the Bonds  in a Trust  is
calculated based upon the stated maturities of the Bonds in such Trust (or, with
respect  to Bonds for  which funds or  securities have been  placed in escrow to
redeem such Bonds on a stated call date, based upon such call date). The average
maturity of the Bonds in a Trust may  increase or decrease from time to time  as
Bonds mature or are called or sold.
    
 
   
    Approximately  2.5% of  the aggregate principal  amount of the  Bonds in the
Trust (accounting for approximately 2.6% of the aggregate offering price of  the
Bonds)    are   original    issue   discount    bonds.   See    "GENERAL   TRUST
INFORMATION--ORIGINAL ISSUE  DISCOUNT  BONDS  AND STRIPPED  OBLIGATIONS"  for  a
discussion  of the  characteristics of  such bonds  and of  the risks associated
therewith.
    
 
    Approximately 30% of  the aggregate  principal amount  of the  Bonds in  the
Trust  consists of obligations  of issuers whose  revenues are primarily derived
from the sale of electric energy.
 
    For a discussion of  the risks associated with  investments in the bonds  of
various issuers, see "General Trust Information" in this section.
 
   
    The  Sponsor entered  into contracts to  acquire the Bonds  between March 9,
1994 and March 10, 1994. The following summarizes certain information about  the
Bonds as of the business day prior to the Date of Deposit:

</TABLE>
 
   
    Neither   cost  to  Sponsor  nor  profit   (or  loss)  to  Sponsor  reflects
underwriting profits or losses received or  incurred by the Sponsor through  its
participation   in  underwriting  syndicates.  An  underwriter  or  underwriting
syndicate purchases bonds  from the issuer  on a negotiated  or competitive  bid
basis  as principal with  the motive of  marketing such bonds  to investors at a
profit. The Sponsor participated as either the sole underwriter or manager or as
a member of the syndicates which were the original underwriters of 26.8% of  the
aggregate principal amount of the Bonds.
    
 
   
    Unitholders  may elect  to have  interest distributions  made on  a monthly,
quarterly or semi-annual basis. The interest on the Bonds initially deposited in
the National Insured Trust, less estimated  expenses, is estimated to accrue  at
the rate of $.01576 per Unit per day under the semi-annual plan of distribution,
$.01571 per Unit per day under the
    
 
                                       16
<PAGE>
   
quarterly  plan of distribution and  $.01562 per Unit per  day under the monthly
plan of  distribution. It  is anticipated  that  the amount  of interest  to  be
distributed per Unit in each year under each plan of distribution will initially
be  substantially equal to the Estimated Net Annual Interest Income per Unit for
that plan.
    
 
    Details of interest  distributions per  Unit of the  National Insured  Trust
under  the various plans appear in the  following table based upon estimated Net
Annual Interest Income at the Date of Deposit:

 * Record Dates for semi-annual distributions are May 1 and November 1; for quarterly distributions, they are February 1, May  1,
   August 1 and November 1. Record Dates for monthly distributions are the first day of each month.
(1) The first distribution will be paid to all Unitholders, regardless of the distribution plan selected.
(2)  The  second distribution  under the  quarterly distribution  plan  represents a  2-month distribution;  subsequent quarterly
    distributions will be regular 3-month distributions.
(3) The second distribution  under the semi-annual  distribution plan represents a  5-month distribution; subsequent  semi-annual
    distributions will be regular 6-month distributions.

    The  accrual amounts set forth above, and  in turn the amount of interest to

mature or are sold.
 
TAX STATUS--NATIONAL INSURED TRUST
 
    For  a discussion  of the  tax status of  income earned  on National Insured
Trust Units, see Section 11.
 
NATIONALLY DIVERSIFIED TRUST TAXABLE ESTIMATED CURRENT RETURN TABLE
(NATIONAL INSURED TRUST)
 
    The following tables show the approximate taxable estimated current  returns
for  individuals  that are  equivalent to  tax-exempt estimated  current returns
under  published  1994  marginal  Federal  tax  rates.  The  tables  incorporate
increased  tax  rates for  higher-income tax  payers that  were included  in the
Revenue Reconciliation Act of 1993. The tables illustrate what you would have to
earn on taxable investments to equal the tax-exempt estimated current return for
your income tax bracket. A taxpayer's marginal tax rate is affected by both  his
taxable  income and his adjusted gross income. Locate your adjusted gross income
and your taxable  income (which  is your adjusted  gross income  reduced by  any
deductions  and  exemptions), then  locate your  tax bracket  based on  joint or
single tax  filing. Read  across  to the  equivalent taxable  estimated  current
return you would need to match the tax-free income.

      1  The table reflects the effect of the limitations on  itemized deductions and the deduction for personal exemptions. They
were designed to phase out certain benefits of these deductions for higher income taxpayers. These limitations, in effect,  raise
the  current maximum marginal Federal tax rate to approximately 44.0  percent for taxpayers filing a joint return and entitled to
four personal exemptions and to  approximately 41.0 percent for  taxpayers filing a single return  entitled to only one  personal
exemption.  These limitations are  subject to certain maximums,  which depend on  the number of exemptions  claimed and the total
amount of the taxpayer's itemized  deductions. For example, the  limitation on itemized deductions will  not cause a taxpayer  to
lose more than 80% of his allowable itemized deductions, with certain exceptions.
      2 Federal tax rate reverts to 36.0% after the 80% cap on the limitation on itemized deductions has been met.
      3 Federal tax rate reverts to 39.6% after the 80% cap on the limitation on itemized deductions has been met.
</TABLE>
 
    A  comparison of tax-free  and equivalent taxable  estimated current returns
with the returns on  various taxable investments is  one element to consider  in
making  an  investment  decision. The  Sponsor  may  from time  to  time  in its
advertising and sales materials  compare the then  current estimated returns  on
the Trust and returns over specified periods on other similar Nuveen Trusts with
returns  on taxable investments such as corporate or U.S. Government bonds, bank
CD's and  money  market  accounts or  money  market  funds, each  of  which  has
investment  characteristics  that  may  differ from  those  of  the  Trust. U.S.
Government bonds, for example, are  backed by the full  faith and credit of  the
U.S. Government and bank CD's and money market accounts are insured by an agency
of  the federal government. Money market accounts and money market funds provide
stability of principal, but pay interest  at rates that vary with the  condition
of  the short-term debt market. The  investment characteristics of the Trust are
described more fully elsewhere in this Prospectus.

* These Bonds,  or a  portion thereof,  have delivery  dates beyond  the  normal
  settlement  date. Their expected  delivery dates range from  March 22, 1994 to
  March 31, 1994. Contracts relating to Bonds with delivery dates after the date
  of  settlement  for  purchase   made  on  the   Date  of  Deposit   constitute
  approximately 22% of the aggregate principal amount of the Trust. (See Section

GEORGIA INSURED TRUST 35
    
 
   
    The  Portfolio of Georgia Insured Trust  35 consists of 7 obligations issued
by entities located in Georgia and one obligation issued by an entity located in
the Territory of Puerto Rico. Two Bonds in the Trust are general obligations  of
the  governmental  entities issuing  them and  are backed  by the  taxing powers
thereof. Six Bonds in the  Trust are payable as  to principal and interest  from
the  income of  a specific  project or  authority and  are not  supported by the
issuer's power to levy taxes. The sources of payment for these Bonds are divided
as follows: Dedicated-Tax  Supported Revenue, 1;  Electrical System Revenue,  2;
Health Care Facility Revenue, 2; Water and/or Sewer Revenue, 1. All of the Bonds
in the Trust, as insured, are rated AAA by Standard & Poor's Corporation and Aaa
by Moody's Investors Service, Inc.
    
 
   
    At  the Date of  Deposit, the average  maturity of the  Bonds in the Georgia
Insured Trust is 25.5  years. The average  maturity of the Bonds  in a Trust  is
calculated based upon the stated maturities of the Bonds in such Trust (or, with
respect  to Bonds for  which funds or  securities have been  placed in escrow to
redeem such Bonds on a stated call date, based upon such call date). The average
maturity of the Bonds in a Trust may  increase or decrease from time to time  as
Bonds mature or are called or sold.
    
 
   
    Approximately  57.1% of the  aggregate principal amount of  the Bonds in the
Trust (accounting for approximately 55.5% of the aggregate offering price of the
Bonds)   are    original   issue    discount   bonds.    See   "GENERAL    TRUST
INFORMATION--ORIGINAL  ISSUE  DISCOUNT  BONDS AND  STRIPPED  OBLIGATIONS"  for a
discussion of the  characteristics of  such bonds  and of  the risks  associated
therewith.
    
 
    Approximately  29% of  the aggregate  principal amount  of the  Bonds in the
Trust consists of obligations  of issuers whose  revenues are primarily  derived
from services provided by hospitals or other health care facilities.
 
    For  a discussion of the  risks associated with investments  in the bonds of
various issuers, see "General Trust Information" in this section.
 
   
    The Sponsor entered  into contracts to  acquire the Bonds  between March  8,
1994  and March 10, 1994. The following summarizes certain information about the
Bonds as of the business day prior to the Date of Deposit:

</TABLE>
 
    Neither  cost  to  Sponsor  nor   profit  (or  loss)  to  Sponsor   reflects
underwriting  profits or losses received or  incurred by the Sponsor through its
participation  in  underwriting  syndicates.  An  underwriter  or   underwriting
syndicate  purchases bonds  from the issuer  on a negotiated  or competitive bid
basis as principal with  the motive of  marketing such bonds  to investors at  a
profit.  The Sponsor did not participate as  either the sole underwriter or as a
manager or member of a syndicate that  acted as the original underwriter of  any
of the Bonds.
 
   
    Unitholders  may elect  to have  interest distributions  made on  a monthly,
quarterly or semi-annual basis. The interest on the Bonds initially deposited in
the Georgia Insured Trust,  less estimated expenses, is  estimated to accrue  at
the rate of $.01466 per Unit per day under the semi-annual plan of distribution,
$.01461 per Unit per day under the

quarterly  plan of distribution and  $.01452 per Unit per  day under the monthly
plan of  distribution. It  is anticipated  that  the amount  of interest  to  be
distributed per Unit in each year under each plan of distribution will initially
be  substantially equal to the Estimated Net Annual Interest Income per Unit for
that plan.

TAX STATUS--GEORGIA INSURED TRUST
 
    For  a discussion  of the  Federal tax  status of  income earned  on Georgia
Insured Trust Units, see Section 11.
 
    In the opinion of Chapman and Cutler, counsel to the Sponsor under  existing
law:
 
        For  Georgia income  tax purposes, the  Georgia Insured Trust  is not an
    association taxable as a corporation, and the income of the Georgia  Insured
    Trust  will be  treated as  the income of  the Unitholders.  Interest on the
    Georgia Bonds which is exempt from  Georgia income tax when received by  the
    Georgia  Insured Trust, and which would be exempt from Georgia income tax if
    received directly  by a  Unitholder, will  retain its  status as  tax-exempt
    interest  when distributed by the Georgia  Insured Trust and received by the
    Unitholders.
 
        If the Trustee disposes  of a Georgia Bond  (whether by sale,  exchange,
    payment  on maturity, retirement or otherwise) or if a Unitholder redeems or
    sells his  Unit, the  Unitholder will  recognize gain  or loss  for  Georgia
    income tax purposes to the same extent that gain or loss would be recognized
    for  federal income tax purposes (except in the case of Georgia Bonds issued
    before March  11, 1987  issued with  original issue  discount owned  by  the
    Georgia  Insured Trust  in which  case gain or  loss for  Georgia income tax
    purposes would be determined by accruing  said original issue discount on  a
    ratable  basis). Due  to the  amortization of  bond premium  and other basis
    adjustments required by the Internal Revenue Code, a Unitholder, under  some
    circumstances,  may realize taxable gain  when his or her  Units are sold or
    redeemed for an amount equal to their original cost.
 
                                       22
<PAGE>
        Because obligations  or  evidences of  debt  of Georgia,  its  political
    subdivisions  and public institutions and bonds  issued by the Government of
    Puerto Rico are exempt  from the Georgia  intangible personal property  tax,
    the  Trust will  not be subject  to such tax  as the result  of holding such
    obligations, evidences  of debt  or bonds.  Although there  currently is  no
    published  administrative interpretation or opinion  of the Attorney General
    of  Georgia  dealing  with  the  status  of  bonds  issued  by  a  political
    subdivision  of Puerto  Rico, we  have in  the past  been advised  orally by
    representatives of the Georgia Department  of Revenue that such bonds  would
    also  be considered exempt from  such tax. Based on  that advice, and in the
    absence of a published administrative interpretation to the contrary, we are
    of the opinion that the Trust would not be subject to such tax as the result
    of holding bonds issued by a political subdivision of Puerto Rico.
 
        Amounts paid by the Insurer under an insurance policy or policies issued
    to the Trust, if any, with respect  to the Georgia Bonds in the Trust  which
    represent  maturing interest  on defaulted  obligations held  by the Trustee
    will be  exempt from  State income  taxes if,  and to  the extent  as,  such
    interest  would have been so  exempt if paid by  the issuer of the defaulted
    obligations.
 
        We express no opinion regarding  whether a Unitholder's ownership of  an
    interest in the Trust is subject to the Georgia intangible personal property
    tax.  Although the application  of the Georgia  intangible personal property
    tax to  the  ownership  of  the  Units by  the  Unitholders  is  not  clear,
    representatives  of  the  Georgia Department  of  Revenue have  in  the past
    advised us orally  that, for purposes  of the intangible  property tax,  the
    Department considers a Unitholder's ownership of an interest in the Trust as
    a  whole  to  be taxable  intangible  property separate  from  any ownership
    interest in the underlying tax-exempt Georgia Bonds.
 
        Neither the Georgia Bonds nor the Units will be subject to Georgia sales
    or use tax.
 
ECONOMIC FACTORS--GEORGIA
 
    The following brief summary regarding the  economy of Georgia is based  upon
information  drawn from publicly available sources  and is included for purposes
of providing information about general economic  conditions that may or may  not
affect  issuers of  the Georgia obligations.  The Sponsor  has not independently
verified any of the information contained in such publicly available documents.
 
    CONSTITUTIONAL  CONSIDERATIONS.    The  Georgia  Constitution  permits   the
issuance  by  the State  of general  obligation debt  and of  certain guaranteed
revenue debt. The State  may incur guaranteed revenue  debt by guaranteeing  the
payment  of  certain revenue  obligations issued  by  an instrumentality  of the
State.  The  Georgia  Constitution  prohibits  the  incurring  of  any   general
obligation  debt or guaranteed revenue debt if the highest aggregate annual debt
service requirement for the then current year or any subsequent fiscal year  for
outstanding  general obligation debt and  guaranteed revenue debt, including the
proposed debt, exceed 10 percent of the total revenue receipts, less refunds, of
the State treasury in  the fiscal year immediately  preceding the year in  which
any such debt is to be incurred.
 
    The  Georgia Constitution  also permits  the State  to incur  public debt to
supply a temporary deficit in the State treasury in any fiscal year created by a
delay in collecting the taxes  of that year. Such debt  must not exceed, in  the
aggregate, 5% of the total revenue receipts, less refunds, of the State treasury
in  the  fiscal  year immediately  preceding  the  year in  which  such  debt is
incurred. The debt  incurred must be  repaid on or  before the last  day of  the
fiscal
 
                                       23
<PAGE>
year in which it is to be incurred out of the taxes levied for that fiscal year.
No  such debt may  be incurred in any  fiscal year if  there is then outstanding
unpaid debt  from  any previous  fiscal  year which  was  incurred to  supply  a
temporary  deficit  in the  State  treasury. No  such  short-term debt  has been
incurred  under  this  provision  since  the  inception  of  the  constitutional
authority referred to in this paragraph.
 
    Virtually  all of the issues  of long-term debt obligations  issued by or on
behalf of the State of Georgia and counties, municipalities and other  political
subdivisions  and public authorities thereof are required by law to be validated
and confirmed in a judicial proceeding prior to issuance. The legal effect of an
approved validation in Georgia  is to render incontestable  the validity of  the
pertinent bond issue and the security therefor.
 
    THE  STATE AND ITS ECONOMY.   The State operates  on a fiscal year beginning
July 1 and ending June 30. Thus, the 1993 fiscal year ended June 30, 1993. Based
on data of the  Georgia Department of Revenue,  estimated receipts of the  State
from  income tax and sales tax for  the 1992 fiscal year comprised approximately
48.8% and 37.9%, respectively, of the total State tax revenues. Such data  shows
that  total estimated State treasury receipts for the 1992 fiscal year increased
by approximately  2.8%  over such  collections  in  the 1991  fiscal  year.  The
estimated  1993 fiscal  year figures  indicate that  receipts of  the State from
income tax and sales  tax for the 1993  fiscal year will comprise  approximately
49.4%  and 37.9%, respectively, of the total State tax revenues. Total estimated
State tax revenue collections for the  1993 fiscal year indicate an increase  of
approximately 8.4% over such collections in the 1992 fiscal year.
 
    Georgia  experienced an economic  slowdown in the  late 1980s that continued
into 1992. The 1991 fiscal year ended  with a balanced budget, but only  because
the  State had borrowed approximately $90  million from surpluses maintained for
special uses. In light  of weaker than expected  monthly revenue collections  in
May  and June of 1991, Georgia lawmakers,  in a special legislative session, cut
budgeted expenditures for the  1992 fiscal year by  $415 million. Georgia  ended
its  1992 fiscal year, however, with strong monthly revenue collections. For the
last four  months of  fiscal year  1992, Georgia's  revenues were  more than  6%
higher  than revenues  reported one  year earlier for  the same  time period. By
year-end, revenue collections  fell only 0.1%  short of that  expected to  cover
1992  expenditures. This shortfall was  made up from funds  allocated to but not
used by state agencies.  The authorized 1993 fiscal  year budget consists of  an
$8.3  billion  spending  plan  and approximately  $750  million  in  new general
obligation debt. On  March 23, 1993,  the Georgia General  Assembly approved  an
$8.9  billion budget for  the 1994 fiscal year  which includes authorization for
$792 million of general obligation borrowing.
 
    The Georgia economy has  performed relatively well  during recent years  and
generally  has expanded at a rate greater  than the national average during that
period. However, growth in 1988 through 1992 has slowed somewhat and was  modest
compared  to the  robust pace  of the  early 1980's.  Georgia's leading economic
indicators currently suggest that the rate of growth of the Georgia economy will
continue at  the pace  of 1988  and 1989  and more  closely match  the  national
economy.  The  1992 annual  average unemployment  rate for  Georgia was  6.9% as
compared to the 1992 national annual average unemployment rate of 7.4%. The 1993
annual average unemployment rate  for Georgia was 5.7%  as compared to the  1993
national  annual average unemployment  rate of 6.7%. Although  many areas of the
economy are expected  to continue to  perform strongly, some  areas such as  the
primary  metals, carpet and apparel industries are still experiencing periods of
weakness,  and   others,   such   as   construction   and   construction-related
manufacturing activities (E.G., lumber, furniture and stone/
 
                                       24
<PAGE>
clay  products),  currently  show  signs  of  weakening.  In  addition, aircraft
manufacturers located  within  the  State  are in  a  tenuous  position  due  to
reductions  in the federal defense budget.  Presently, Georgia continues to lead
the nation in the production of pulp, pulpwood and paper. Other industries  show
potential  for  great expansion,  but  policy considerations,  tax  reform laws,
foreign  competition,  and  other  factors  may  render  these  industries  less
productive.
 
    BOND  RATINGS.   Currently,  Moody's Investors  Service, Inc.  rates Georgia
general obligation bonds Aaa and Standard & Poor's Corporation rates such  bonds
AA+.
 
    LEGAL  PROCEEDINGS.  Georgia is involved  in certain legal proceedings that,
if decided against the State, may  require the State to make significant  future
expenditures  or may substantially  impair revenues. Several  lawsuits have been
filed  against  Georgia  asserting  that  the  decision  in  DAVIS  V.  MICHIGAN
DEPARTMENT OF TREASURY, 489 U.S. 803 (1989), invalidating Michigan's practice of
taxing  retirement benefits paid by the federal government while exempting state
retirement  benefits,  also  invalidates  Georgia's  tax  treatment  of  Federal
Retirement  Benefits for years prior to  1989. Under Georgia's applicable 3 year
statute  of  limitation  the  maximum  potential  liability  under  these  suits
calculated  to April  1, 1992  would appear  to be  no greater  than 128 million
dollars. The plaintiffs in  these suits, however, have  requested refunds for  a
period  from 1980  which could  result in a  maximum potential  liability in the
range of  591 million  dollars. Any  such  liability would  be predicated  on  a
holding  by a Georgia  court or the  United States Supreme  Court that the DAVIS
decision is applicable to  Georgia's prior method  of taxing Federal  Retirement
Benefits,  that the DAVIS  decision is to  be given a  retroactive effect, i.e.,
that the  decision  affects  prior  tax  years  and  that  a  refund  remedy  is
appropriate.  In Georgia's "test  case", the Georgia Supreme  Court held that no
refunds are due. On June 28, 1993, however, the U.S. Supreme Court vacated  that
holding  and remanded the  case for further  consideration in light  of the U.S.
Supreme Court decision  in HARPER  V. VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT  OF TAXATION  (Decided
June  18, 1993). In  HARPER, the Court  held that its  decision in DAVIS applied
retroactively to federal retirees who  were denied Virginia personal income  tax
refunds.
 
    Another  suit filed against Georgia seeks a $31 million refund plus interest
of liquor taxes imposed under a  Georgia statute found retroactively invalid  by
the  U.S. Supreme Court. The  trial court's decision that  no refunds are due is
currently being reviewed by the Georgia Supreme Court.
 
    Two additional suits have  been filed with the  State of Georgia by  foreign
producers  of  alcoholic beverages  seeking $96  million  in refunds  of alcohol
import taxes imposed under another statute.  These claims constitute 99% of  all
such taxes paid during the preceding three years.
 
    In  BOARD  OF  PUBLIC  EDUCATION FOR  SAVANNAH/CHATHAM  COUNTY  V.  STATE OF
GEORGIA, the local school board claimed that the State should finance the  major
portion of the costs of its desegregation program. The Savannah Board originally
requested  restitution in  the amount of  $30 million, but  the Federal District
Court set forth a formula which would  require a State payment in the amount  of
approximately  $6  million.  Both sides  have  moved for  reconsideration.  In a
similar complaint, DeKalb County has requested restitution in the amount of  $90
million,  and there  are approximately five  other school  districts which could
file similar claims.  It is not  possible to quantify  such potential claims  at
this time.
 
    The  foregoing information does  not purport to be  a complete or exhaustive
description of  all conditions  to which  the issuers  of Bonds  in the  Georgia
Traditional Trust are subject.
 
                                       25
<PAGE>
Many  factors including national economic, social and environmental policies and
conditions, which  are not  within the  control of  the issuers  of Bonds  could
affect  or could have an adverse impact  on the financial condition of the State
and various  agencies and  political subdivisions  located in  the State.  Since
Georgia  Bonds in the  Georgia Traditional Trust  (other than general obligation
bonds issued by  the State)  are payable from  revenue derived  from a  specific
source  or authority, the impact of a pronounced decline in the national economy
or difficulties in  significant industries within  the State could  result in  a
decrease  in  the  amount of  revenues  realized  from such  source  or  by such
authority and thus adversely affect the ability of the respective issuers of the
Georgia Bonds  in  the  Georgia  Traditional  Trust  to  pay  the  debt  service
requirements on the Georgia Bonds. Similarly, such adverse economic developments
could  result in a decrease in tax revenues realized by the State and thus could
adversely affect the ability of the  State to pay the debt service  requirements
of any Georgia general obligation bonds in the Georgia Traditional Trust.
 
GEORGIA TAXABLE ESTIMATED CURRENT RETURN TABLE
 
    The  following tables show the approximate taxable estimated current returns
for individuals  that are  equivalent to  tax-exempt estimated  current  returns
under  combined Federal and  state taxes, using  published 1994 marginal Federal
tax rates and marginal state tax  rates currently available and scheduled to  be
in  effect.  The  tables  incorporate  increased  tax  rates  for  higher-income
taxpayers that were  included in  the Revenue  Reconciliation Act  of 1993.  For
cases  in which more than one state  bracket falls within a Federal bracket, the
highest state bracket is combined with  the Federal bracket. The combined  state
and  Federal tax  brackets shown  reflect the fact  that state  tax payments are
currently deductible for Federal  tax purposes. The  tables illustrate what  you
would  have to  earn on  taxable investments  to equal  the tax-exempt estimated
current return for your  income tax bracket. A  taxpayer's marginal tax rate  is
affected  by both his taxable income and  his adjusted gross income. Locate your
adjusted gross and  your taxable  income (which  is your  adjusted gross  income
reduced by any deductions and exemptions), then locate your tax bracket based on
joint  or single  tax filing.  Read across  to the  equivalent taxable estimated
current return you would need to match the tax-free income.

      1 The table reflects the effect of the limitations  on itemized deductions and the deduction for personal exemptions.  They
were  designed to phase out certain benefits of these deductions for higher income taxpayers. These limitations, in effect, raise
the current maximum marginal Federal tax rate to approximately 44.0  percent for taxpayers filing a joint return and entitled  to
four  personal exemptions and to  approximately 41.0 percent for taxpayers  filing a single return  entitled to only one personal
exemption. These limitations are  subject to certain maximums,  which depend on  the number of exemptions  claimed and the  total
amount  of the taxpayer's itemized  deductions. For example, the limitation  on itemized deductions will  not cause a taxpayer to
lose more than 80% of his allowable itemized deductions, with certain exceptions.
      2 Federal tax rate reverts to 36.0% after the 80% cap on the limitation on itemized deductions has been met.
      3 Federal tax rate reverts to 39.6% after the 80% cap on the limitation on itemized deductions has been met.
</TABLE>
 
    A comparison of  tax-free and equivalent  taxable estimated current  returns
with  the returns on various  taxable investments is one  element to consider in
making an  investment  decision.  The Sponsor  may  from  time to  time  in  its
advertising  and sales materials  compare the then  current estimated returns on
the Trust and returns over specified periods on other similar Nuveen Trusts with
returns on taxable investments such as corporate or U.S. Government bonds,  bank
CD's  and  money  market accounts  or  money  market funds,  each  of  which has
investment characteristics  that  may  differ  from those  of  the  Trust.  U.S.
Government  bonds, for example, are  backed by the full  faith and credit of the
U.S. Government and bank CD's and money market accounts are insured by an agency
of the federal government. Money market accounts and money market funds  provide
stability  of principal, but pay interest at  rates that vary with the condition
of the short-term debt market. The  investment characteristics of the Trust  are
described more fully elsewhere in this Prospectus.

NEW YORK INSURED TRUST 213
    
   
    The Portfolio of New York Insured Trust 213 consists of 6 obligations issued
by  entities located in New York and  one obligation issued by an entity located
in the  Territory  of  Puerto  Rico.  Three  Bonds  in  the  Trust  are  general
obligations  of the  governmental entities  issuing them  and are  backed by the
taxing powers thereof. Four Bonds in the  Trust are payable as to principal  and
interest  from  the  income of  a  specific  project or  authority  and  are not
supported by the issuer's power to levy taxes. The sources of payment for  these
Bonds  are divided as  follows: Dedicated-Tax Supported  Revenue, 1; College and
University Revenue, 1; Electrical System Revenue, 1; Water and/or Sewer Revenue,
1. All of the Bonds in the Trust, as insured, are rated AAA by Standard & Poor's
Corporation and Aaa by Moody's Investors Service, Inc.
    
 
   
    At the Date of Deposit,  the average maturity of the  Bonds in the New  York
Insured  Trust is 24.6  years. The average maturity  of the Bonds  in a Trust is
calculated based upon the stated maturities of the Bonds in such Trust (or, with
respect to Bonds for  which funds or  securities have been  placed in escrow  to
redeem such Bonds on a stated call date, based upon such call date). The average
maturity  of the Bonds in a Trust may  increase or decrease from time to time as
Bonds mature or are called or sold.
    
 
   
    Approximately 14.3% of the  aggregate principal amount of  the Bonds in  the
Trust (accounting for approximately 14.0% of the aggregate offering price of the
Bonds)    are   original    issue   discount    bonds.   See    "GENERAL   TRUST
INFORMATION--ORIGINAL ISSUE  DISCOUNT  BONDS  AND STRIPPED  OBLIGATIONS"  for  a
discussion  of the  characteristics of  such bonds  and of  the risks associated
therewith.
    
 
    For a discussion of  the risks associated with  investments in the bonds  of
various issuers, see "General Trust Information" in this section.
 
   
    The  Sponsor entered  into contracts to  acquire the Bonds  between March 9,
1994 and March 10, 1994. The following summarizes certain information about  the
Bonds as of the business day prior to the Date of Deposit:

</TABLE>
 
    Neither   cost  to  Sponsor  nor  profit   (or  loss)  to  Sponsor  reflects
underwriting profits or losses received or  incurred by the Sponsor through  its
participation   in  underwriting  syndicates.  An  underwriter  or  underwriting
syndicate purchases bonds  from the issuer  on a negotiated  or competitive  bid
basis  as principal with  the motive of  marketing such bonds  to investors at a
profit. The Sponsor did not participate as  either the sole underwriter or as  a
manager  or member of a syndicate that  acted as the original underwriter of any
of the Bonds.
 
   
    Unitholders may  elect to  have interest  distributions made  on a  monthly,
quarterly or semi-annual basis. The interest on the Bonds initially deposited in
the  New York Insured Trust, less estimated  expenses, is estimated to accrue at
the rate of $.01495 per Unit per day under the semi-annual plan of distribution,
$.01490 per Unit per  day under the quarterly  plan of distribution and  $.01481
per  Unit per day under the monthly plan of distribution. It is anticipated that
the amount of interest to be distributed  per Unit in each year under each  plan
of  distribution  will initially  be substantially  equal  to the  Estimated Net
Annual Interest Income per Unit for that plan.

 * Record Dates for semi-annual distributions are May 1 and November 1; for quarterly distributions, they are February 1, May  1,
   August 1 and November 1. Record Dates for monthly distributions are the first day of each month.
(1) The first distribution will be paid to all Unitholders, regardless of the distribution plan selected.
(2)  The  second distribution  under the  quarterly distribution  plan  represents a  2-month distribution;  subsequent quarterly
    distributions will be regular 3-month distributions.
(3) The second distribution  under the semi-annual  distribution plan represents a  5-month distribution; subsequent  semi-annual
    distributions will be regular 6-month distributions.

    The  accrual amounts set forth above, and  in turn the amount of interest to
be distributed annually per Unit, will  generally change as Bonds are  redeemed,
mature or are sold.
 
TAX STATUS--NEW YORK INSURED TRUST
 
    For  a discussion  of the Federal  tax status  of income earned  on New York
Insured Trust Units, see Section 11.
 
    In the opinion of Edwards & Angell,  special counsel for the Series for  New
York tax matters, under existing law:
 
        Interest   on  obligations  issued  by   New  York  State,  a  political
    subdivision thereof, Puerto  Rico, the  Virgin Islands,  Guam, the  Northern
    Mariana  Islands,  or  other possessions  of  the United  States  within the
    meaning of Section 103(c) of the  Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as  amended
    ("New  York Obligations"), which would be exempt  from New York State or New
    York City personal  income tax if  directly received by  a Unitholder,  will
    retain  its  status as  tax-exempt interest  when received  by the  New York
    Insured Trust (the "Trust") and distributed to such Unitholder.
 
        Interest (less amortizable premium, if any) derived from the Trust by  a
    resident  of New  York State  (or New York  City) in  respect of obligations
    issued by states other than New York (or their political subdivisions)  will
    be subject to New York State (or New York City) personal income tax.
 
        A Unitholder who is a resident of New York State (or New York City) will
    be  subject to New  York State (or  New York City)  personal income tax with
    respect to gains  realized when New  York Obligations held  in the New  York
    Insured   Trust  are  sold,  redeemed  or  paid  at  maturity  or  when  the
    Unitholder's Units are sold or redeemed;  such gain will equal the  proceeds
    of sale, redemption or payment less the tax basis of the New York Obligation
    or Unit (adjusted to reflect (a) the amortization of premium or discount, if
    any,  on New York Obligations held by  the Trust, (b) accrued original issue
    discount, with respect to  each New York Obligation  which, at the time  the
    New  York Obligation  was issued, had  original issue discount,  and (c) the
    deposit of New York Obligations with accrued interest in the Trust after the
    Unitholder's settlement date).
 
        Interest or gain from  the Trust derived  by a Unitholder  who is not  a
    resident  of New York  State (or New York  City) will not  be subject to New
    York State (or  New York  City) personal income  tax, unless  the Units  are
    property  employed in a business, trade, profession or occupation carried on
    in New York State (or New York City).
 
                                       30
<PAGE>
        In the case  of the  Trust, amounts  paid under  the insurance  policies
    representing maturing interest on defaulted New York Obligations held by the
    Trustee  in the Trust  will be excludable  from New York  State and New York
    City income if, and  to the same  extent as, such  interest would have  been
    excludable if paid by the respective issuer.
 
        For  purposes of the New  York State and New  York City franchise tax on
    corporations, Unitholders which are subject to such tax will be required  to
    include in their entire net income any interest or gains distributed to them
    even   though  distributed  in  respect  of  obligations  of  any  state  or
    subdivision thereof including New York.
 
        If borrowed funds are used to purchase Units in the Trust, all (or part)
    of the interest  on such indebtedness  will not be  deductible for New  York
    State  and  New  York  City  tax purposes.  The  purchase  of  Units  may be
    considered to have been made with borrowed funds even though such funds  are
    not directly traceable to the purchase of Units in any New York Trust.
 
ECONOMIC FACTORS--NEW YORK
 
    The  Portfolio of the New York Traditional Trust includes obligations issued
by New York State (the "State"), by its various public bodies (the  "Agencies"),
and/or  by other entities  located within the  State, including the  City of New
York (the "City").
 
    Some of the more significant events and conditions relating to the financial
situation in New York are summarized  below. This section provides only a  brief
summary of the complex factors affecting the financial situation in New York and
is  derived  from  sources that  are  generally  available to  investors  and is
believed to  be  accurate.  It is  based  in  part on  Official  Statements  and
prospectuses issued by, and on other information reported by the State, the City
and the Agencies in connection with the issuance of their respective securities.
 
    There  can  be no  assurance that  current or  future statewide  or regional
economic difficulties, and  the resulting  impact on State  or local  government
finances  generally,  will not  adversely affect  the market  value of  New York
Municipal Obligations  held in  the portfolio  of the  Trust or  the ability  of
particular  obligors to make timely payments of debt service on (or relating to)
those obligations.
 
    (1) THE STATE: The State has historically been one of the wealthiest  states
in  the nation. For  decades, however, the  State economy has  grown more slowly
than that  of the  nation as  a whole,  gradually eroding  the State's  relative
economic  affluence.  Statewide,  urban  centers  have  experienced  significant
changes involving migration of the more affluent to the suburbs and an influx of
generally less affluent residents. Regionally,  the older Northeast cities  have
suffered because of the relative success that the South and the West have had in
attracting  people  and  business.  The  City  has  also  had  to  face  greater
competition  as  other  major  cities  have  developed  financial  and  business
capabilities  which  make  them  less  dependent  on  the  specialized  services
traditionally available almost exclusively in the City.
 
    The State has  for many years  had a very  high state and  local tax  burden
relative to other states. The burden of State and local taxation, in combination
with  the many other causes of regional economic dislocation, has contributed to
the decisions of  some businesses and  individuals to relocate  outside, or  not
locate within, the State.
 
    SLOWDOWN  OF REGIONAL ECONOMY.  A national recession  commenced in mid-1990.
The downturn  continued  throughout the  State's  1990-91 fiscal  year  and  was
followed  by a period of weak economic growth during the 1991 calendar year. For
calendar year 1992,  the national economy  continued to recover,  although at  a
rate  below  all post-war  recoveries. For  calendar year  1993, the  economy is
expected to grow  faster than in  1992, but still  at a very  moderate rate,  as
compared  to  other  recoveries. The  national  recession has  been  more severe
 
                                       31
<PAGE>
in the  State because  of factors  such  as a  significant retrenchment  in  the
financial services industry, cutbacks in defense spending, and an overbuilt real
estate market.
 
    1993-94  FISCAL YEAR.  On April  5, 1998,  the State  Legislature approved a
$32.08 billion  budget. Following  enactment  of the  budget the  1993-94  State
Financial Plan was formulated on April 16, 1993. This Plan projects General Fund
receipts and transfers from other funds at $32.367 billion and disbursements and
transfers  to other  funds at $32.300  billion. In comparison  to the Governor's
recommended Executive Budget for the 1993-94 fiscal year, as revised on February
18, 1993, the 1993-94 State Financial  Plan reflects increases in both  receipts
and disbursements in the General Fund of $811 million.
 
    While  a portion of the increased receipts  was the result of a $487 million
increase in the State's  1992-93 positive year-end margin  at March 31, 1993  to
$671  million,  the balance  of  such increased  receipts  is based  upon  (i) a
projected $269  million increase  in receipts  resulting from  improved  1992-93
results  and the expectation of an  improving economy, (ii) projected additional
payments of  $200 million  from  the Federal  government as  reimbursements  for
indigent  medical care, (iii) the  early payment of $50  million of personal tax
returns in 1992-93 which  otherwise would have been  paid in 1993-94; offset  by
(iv)  the  State  Legislature's  failure to  enact  $195  million  of additional
revenue-raising recommendations  proposed  by  the Governor.  There  can  be  no
assurances  that  all  of  the  projected receipts  referred  to  above  will be
received.
 
    Despite the $811 million increase  in disbursements included in the  1993-94
State  Financial Plan, a reduction in aid  to some local government units can be
expected. To offset a  portion of such reductions,  the 1993-94 State  Financial
Plan  contains a package of mandate relief, cost containment and other proposals
to reduce  the  costs of  many  programs  for which  local  governments  provide
funding.  There can be  no assurance, however, that  localities that suffer cuts
will not be adversely affected, leading to further requests for State  financial
assistance.
 
    There can be no assurance that the State will not face substantial potential
budget  gaps in  the future resulting  from a significant  disparity between tax
revenues projected  from  a  lower  recurring receipts  base  and  the  spending
required  to maintain State programs at current levels. To address any potential
budgetary imbalance, the  State may need  to take significant  actions to  align
recurring receipts and disbursements.
 
    1992-93  FISCAL YEAR. Before giving effect  to a 1992-93 year-end deposit to
the refund reserve  account of $671  million, General Fund  receipts in  1992-93
would  have been  $716 million higher  than originally  projected. This year-end
deposit effectively  reduced 1992-93  receipts by  $671 million  and made  those
receipts available for 1993-94.
 
    The  State's  favorable  performance  primarily  resulted  from  income  tax
collections that were $700  million higher than  projected which reflected  both
stronger  economic activity and tax-induced one-time acceleration of income into
1992. In  other  areas  larger  than  projected  business  tax  collections  and
unbudgeted  receipts  offset the  loss of  $200  million of  anticipated Federal
reimbursement and losses of, or shortfalls in, other projected revenue sources.
 
    For 1992-93  disbursements  and  transfers to  other  funds  (including  the
deposit to the refund reserve account discussed above) totalled $30.829 billion,
an  increase of $45 million above projections in April 1992. After adjusting for
a $150 million  payment from  the Medical Malpractice  Insurance Association  to
health  insurers  pursuant  to  legislation  adopted  in  January  1993,  actual
disbursements were $105 million lower than projected.
 
    Fiscal year 1992-93 was the first time in four years that the State did  not
incur  a cash-basis operating deficit in the General Fund requiring the issuance
of deficit  notes  or  other  bonds, spending  cuts  or  other  revenue  raising
measures.
 
                                       32
<PAGE>
    INDEBTEDNESS.  As of  March 31,  1993, the  total amount  of long-term State
general obligation debt authorized but unissued stood at $2.4 billion. As of the
same date, the State had approximately $5.4 billion in general obligation bonds.
The State issued $850 million in tax and revenue anticipation notes ("TRANS") on
April 28, 1993. The State  does not project the  need to issue additional  TRANS
during the State's 1993-94 fiscal year.
 
    The  State anticipates that  its borrowings for  capital purposes during the
State's 1993-94 fiscal year will consist  of $460 million in general  obligation
bonds  and $140 million in  bonds for the purpose  of redeeming outstanding bond
anticipation notes. The  Legislature has authorized  the issuance of  up to  $85
million  in certificates of participation during the State's 1993-94 fiscal year
for personal  and  real  property  acquisitions. The  projection  of  the  State
regarding  its  borrowings for  the  1993-94 fiscal  year  may change  if actual
receipts fall short of State projections or if other circumstances require.
 
    In  June  1990,  legislation  was  enacted  creating  the  "New  York  Local
Government  Assistance  Corporation"  ("LGAC"),  a  public  benefit  corporation
empowered to  issue long-term  obligations  to fund  certain payments  to  local
governments  traditionally funded through the State's annual seasonal borrowing.
To date, LGAC has  issued its bonds  to provide net  proceeds of $3.28  billion.
LGAC  has been authorized to  issue additional bonds to  provide net proceeds of
$703 million during the State's 1993-94 fiscal year.
 
    RATINGS.  The $850 million in TRANS  issued by the State in April 1993  were
rated  SP-1-Plus by  S&P on April  26, 1993, and  MIG-1 by Moody's  on April 23,
1993, which represents the highest ratings given by such agencies and the  first
time  the State's  TRANS have  received these ratings  since its  May 1989 TRANS
issuance. Both  agencies  cited  the  State's  improved  fiscal  position  as  a
significant factor in the upgrading of the April 1993 TRANS.
 
    Moody's  rating of the State's general obligation  bonds stood at A on April
23, 1993, and S&P's rating stood at A- with a stable outlook on April 26,  1993,
an  improvement from  S&P's negative  outlook prior  to April  1993. Previously,
Moody's lowered its rating to A on June 6, 1990, its rating having been A1 since
May 27, 1986. S&P  lowered its rating from  A to A- on  January 13, 1992.  S&P's
previous ratings were A from March 1990 to January 1992, AA- from August 1987 to
March 1990 and A+ from November 1982 to August 1987.
 
    Moody's,  in confirming its rating of  the State's general obligation bonds,
and S&P, in improving its outlook on  such bonds from negative to stable,  noted
the  State's  improved  fiscal  condition  and  reasonable  revenue  assumptions
contained in the 1993-94 State budget.
 
    (2) THE  CITY AND  THE MUNICIPAL  ASSISTANCE CORPORATION  ("MAC"): The  City
accounts  for approximately 41%  of the State's  population and personal income,
and the City's financial health affects the State in numerous ways.
 
    In response to the City's fiscal crisis in 1975, the State took a number  of
steps  to assist the City in returning to fiscal stability. Among other actions,
the State Legislature (i) created MAC to assist with long-term financing for the
City's short-term debt and  other cash requirements and  (ii) created the  State
Financial  Control Board (the "Control Board")  to review and approve the City's
budgets and City four-year  financial plans (the financial  plans also apply  to
certain City-related public agencies (the "Covered Organizations")).
 
    Over  the past  three years,  the rate  of economic  growth in  the City has
slowed substantially,  and the  City's economy  is currently  in recession.  The
Mayor  is  responsible  for  preparing  the  City's  four-year  financial  plan,
including the City's  current financial  plan. The City  Comptroller has  issued
reports  concluding that the recession of the City's economy will be more severe
and last longer than is assumed in the financial plan.
 
    FISCAL YEAR 1993  AND 1993-1996 AND  1994-1997 FINANCIAL PLAN.   The  City's
1993  fiscal  year  results are  projected  to  be balanced  in  accordance with
generally accepted accounting
 
                                       33
<PAGE>
principles ("GAAP"). The City was required  to close substantial budget gaps  in
its  1990, 1991 and  1992 fiscal years  in order to  maintain balanced operating
results.
 
    The City's modified 1993-1996 Financial Plan dated February 9, 1993 covering
fiscal years  1993-1996  projects budget  gaps  for  1994 through  1996  and  is
dependent  upon a  gap-closing program, certain  elements of which  the staff of
Control Board identified on March 25, 1993 to be at risk due to projected levels
of State and Federal aid and revenue and expenditures estimates which may not be
achievable. On June 4, 1993, the Office of the State Deputy Comptroller ("OSDC")
reported that expenditures for the 1994 fiscal year could be $280 million higher
than projected in May 1993 by the City and revenues for the same period could be
$111 million lower  than projected. The  OSDC also noted  possible increases  in
budget gaps forecast by the City.
 
    The City Council adopted a balanced budget for Fiscal Year 1993-1994 on June
14, 1993. The State Comptroller on that date criticized efforts by the Mayor and
City  Council  to balance  the City's  budget which  rely primarily  on one-shot
revenues. The State Comptroller added that the City's budget should be based  on
"recurring  revenues that  fund recurring expenditures."  In a  report issued on
June 15, 1993, the Control Board also criticized the reliance by the City on  $1
billion  of such one-shot revenues to balance  the budget. On June 30, 1993, S&P
announced that it was concerned with  budget gaps in post-1994 fiscal years  and
the  inability of the City to restrain spending and, due to this concern, it was
reviewing the rating of the City's general obligation bonds.
 
    In  response  to  S&P's  announcement,  the  Mayor's  Office  and  the  City
Comptroller  met with staff of S&P and  proposed $130 million of additional cuts
in the recently adopted budget for fiscal year 1994 through reduced spending for
capital projects, savings  through workforce  attrition and  other measures.  In
addition,  the Mayor proposed $400  million in cuts from  the City's fiscal year
1995 budget. Following  review of the  proposed cuts, S&P  announced on July  2,
1993  that  it  would maintain  its  current  A- rating  of  the  City's general
obligation bonds, but S&P indicated that it remains concerned about budgets  for
fiscal year 1995 and thereafter.
 
    On  July 6,  1993, the  City prepared  its Financial  Plan for  fiscal years
1994-1997 which projects a balanced budget  for fiscal year 1994 and  identifies
approximately  $2.0  billion  in  gap  closing  measures  including productivity
savings, service reductions, sale of  delinquent real property tax  receivables,
transfers from fiscal year 1993, reduced debt service costs, increased State and
Federal  aid,  a continuation  of the  personal income  tax surcharge  and other
actions to reduce expenditures and  increase revenues. This 1994-1997  Financial
Plan  projects budget  gaps of  $1.3 billion, $1.8  billion and  $2.0 billion in
fiscal years  1995 through  1997,  respectively. On  August  4, 1993,  the  City
Comptroller in a report on the 1994-1997 Financial Plan identified risks of $340
million,  $1.5  billion, $2.0  billion  and $2.2  billion  in fiscal  years 1994
through 1997, respectively, which  could negatively affect gap-closing  efforts.
The  City Comptroller  noted uncertainties  associated with  anticipated Federal
aid, projected proceeds  from the sale  or reorganization of  Off Track  Betting
operations and approval of certain productivity savings relating to teachers.
 
    An  August 5, 1993  report of the  Control Board on  the 1994-1997 Financial
Plan also  identified  risks  in  the City's  proposed  budget  gap  reductions,
including  items identified by the City Comptroller and uncertainties associated
with the level of  State aid and the  City's revenue and expenditure  estimates.
The  Control  Board  estimated  gap-closing risks  to  be  slightly  higher than
indicated in the  City Comptroller's  report, $687 million,  $1.9 billion,  $2.4
billion and $2.5 billion in fiscal years 1994 through 1997, respectively.
 
    OSDC's  report on the 1994-1997 Financial  Plan released on August 10, 1993,
also projected that budget  gaps could be  higher than those  set forth in  such
Plan. The OSDC report
 
                                       34
<PAGE>
stated  that in fiscal year  1994 expenditures could be  $240 million higher and
revenues $182 million  lower than projected  by the City.  OSDC also noted  that
budget  gaps could increase  by $556 million,  $561 million and  $515 million in
fiscal years  1995 through  1997, respectively,  above City  projections as  the
result  of higher payments to Covered  Organizations, higher overtime costs, and
lower than anticipated lottery  and tax receipts.  Given the foregoing  factors,
there  can be no  assurance that the  City will continue  to maintain a balanced
budget, or that  it can  maintain a balanced  budget without  additional tax  or
other  revenue increases or  reductions in City  services, which could adversely
affect the City's economic base.
 
    Pursuant to State law, the City prepares a four-year annual financial  plan,
which is reviewed and revised on a quarterly basis and which includes the City's
capital,  revenue and  expense projections. The  City is required  to submit its
financial plans to review bodies, including the Control Board. If the City  were
to  experience certain adverse financial circumstances, including the occurrence
or the  substantial likelihood  and imminence  of the  occurrence of  an  annual
operating  deficit of more than $100 million or the loss of access to the public
credit  markets  to   satisfy  the   City's  capital   and  seasonal   financial
requirements,  the  Control Board  would be  required by  State law  to exercise
certain powers,  including  prior approval  of  City financial  plans,  proposed
borrowings and certain contracts.
 
    The  City depends  on the  State for State  aid both  to enable  the City to
balance its budget and to meet  its cash requirements. If the State  experiences
revenue  shortfalls or spending increases beyond its projections during its 1993
fiscal year or subsequent years, such developments could result in reductions in
projected State aid to  the City. In  addition, there can  be no assurance  that
State  budgets in future fiscal  years will be adopted  by the April 1 statutory
deadline and that there will not be adverse effects on the City's cash flow  and
additional City expenditures as a result of such delays.
 
    The  City projections set forth  in its financial plan  are based on various
assumptions and contingencies which are uncertain and which may not materialize.
Changes in major assumptions  could significantly affect  the City's ability  to
balance its budget as required by State law and to meet its annual cash flow and
financing requirements. Such assumptions and contingencies include the timing of
any  regional  and local  economic recovery,  the absence  of wage  increases in
excess of  the  increases assumed  in  its financial  plan,  employment  growth,
provision  of  State  and  Federal aid  and  mandate  relief,  State legislative
approval of future  State budgets, levels  of education expenditures  as may  be
required  by State  law, adoption of  future City  budgets by the  New York City
Council, and  approval  by  the  Governor  or  the  State  Legislature  and  the
cooperation  of  MAC with  respect  to various  other  actions proposed  in such
financial plan.
 
    The City's ability to maintain a  balanced operating budget is dependant  on
whether  it  can implement  necessary service  and personnel  reduction programs
successfully. As discussed above, the City must identify additional  expenditure
reductions  and revenue sources to achieve balanced operating budgets for fiscal
years 1994  and thereafter.  Any such  proposed expenditure  reductions will  be
difficult  to implement  because of their  size and  the substantial expenditure
reductions already imposed on City operations in the past two years.
 
    Attaining a balanced  budget is also  dependent upon the  City's ability  to
market  its securities  successfully in  the public  credit markets.  The City's
financing program  for  fiscal  years 1994  through  1997  contemplates  capital
spending  of $16.2  billion, which  will be  financed through  issuance of $10.5
billion of general  obligation bonds,  $4.3 billion of  Water Authority  Revenue
Bonds  and the balance by Covered Organization obligations, and will be utilized
primarily to reconstruct and rehabilitate the City's infrastructure and physical
assets and  to make  capital investments.  A significant  portion of  such  bond
financing  is used to reimburse the City's general fund for capital expenditures
already incurred. In addition,
 
                                       35
<PAGE>
the City  issues revenue  and tax  anticipation notes  to finance  its  seasonal
working capital requirements. The terms and success of projected public sales of
City  general obligation  bonds and notes  will be subject  to prevailing market
conditions at the  time of  the sale,  and no assurance  can be  given that  the
credit  markets will absorb the projected amounts of public bond and note sales.
In addition, future developments  concerning the City  and public discussion  of
such developments, the City's future financial needs and other issues may affect
the  market for outstanding City general obligation bonds and notes. If the City
were unable  to  sell  its general  obligation  bonds  and notes,  it  would  be
prevented from meeting its planned operating and capital expenditures.
 
    FISCAL  YEARS 1990,  1991 AND  1992.   The City  achieved balanced operating
results as reported in accordance with GAAP for the 1992 fiscal year. During the
1990 and 1991  fiscal years, the  City implemented various  actions to offset  a
projected  budget  deficit  of $3.2  billion  for  the 1991  fiscal  year, which
resulted from declines in City  revenue sources and increased public  assistance
needs  due to the recession. Such actions included $822 million of tax increases
and substantial expenditure reductions.
 
    The City is a defendant in a significant number of lawsuits. Such litigation
includes, but is not limited to,  actions commenced and claims asserted  against
the  City arising out  of alleged constitutional  violations, torts, breaches of
contracts, and other violations of  law and condemnation proceedings. While  the
ultimate  outcome and fiscal impact,  if any, on the  proceedings and claims are
not currently predictable, adverse determinations in certain of them might  have
a  material adverse effect  upon the City's  ability to carry  out its financial
plan. As  of  June  30, 1992,  legal  claims  in excess  of  $341  billion  were
outstanding  against the City for which  the City estimated its potential future
liability to be $2.3 billion.
 
    RATINGS.  As of the  date of this prospectus,  Moody's rating of the  City's
general obligation bonds stood at Baa1 and S&P's rating stood at A-. On February
11, 1991, Moody's had lowered its rating from A.
 
    On June 30, 1993, in confirming its Baa1 rating, Moody's noted that:
 
        The  recent  trend  of  declining  reliance  on  (one-shot  revenues) is
    notable, and  it is  too early  to predict  that the  increased reliance  on
    one-shots in the fiscal 1994 budget represents the beginning of a continuing
    upward movement in the use of one-shots....Moody's recognized in February of
    1991,  when the  (C)ity's rating  was lowered  from an  A to  Baa1, that the
    (C)ity faced structural budgetary imbalances which were unlikely to be cured
    in the near term. Moody's continues  to expect the (C)ity's progress  toward
    achieving structural balance to be slow and uneven, but that the (C)ity will
    be  diligent  and prudent  in  closing each  year's  gap, factors  which are
    consistent with the Baa1 rating level.
 
    On August 11, 1993, Moody's confirmed  the City's Baa1 rating in  connection
with the City's $300 million general obligation bond issue on that date.
 
    On  March  30, 1993,  S&P  affirmed its  A-rating  with a  negative outlook,
stating that:
 
        The City's key  credit factors  are marked by  a high  and growing  debt
    burden, and taxation levels that are relatively high, but stable. The City's
    economy is broad-based and diverse, but currently is in prolonged recession,
    with slow growth prospects for the foreseeable future.
 
        The rating outlook is negative, reflecting the continued fiscal pressure
    facing  the City, driven by continued  weakness in the local economy, rising
    spending pressures  for education  and labor  costs of  city employees,  and
    increasing  costs associated with  rising debt for  capital construction and
    repair.
 
                                       36
<PAGE>
        The current financial plan for the City assumes substantial increases in
    aid from national and state governments. Maintenance of the current  rating,
    and  stabilization of the rating outlook,  will depend on the City's success
    in realizing  budgetary  aid  from these  governments,  or  replacing  those
    revenues  with ongoing revenue-raising measures or spending reductions under
    the City's  control.  However,  increased reliance  on  nonrecurring  budget
    balancing  measures that would support current spending, but defer budgetary
    gaps to future  years, would be  viewed by  S&P as detrimental  to New  York
    City's single-'A-' rating.
 
    As  discussed above under FISCAL YEAR  1993 AND 1993-1996 FINANCIAL PLAN, on
July 2, 1993  after a  review of  the City's budget  for fiscal  year 1994,  its
proposed  budget  for  fiscal year  1995  and  certain additional  cuts  in both
proposed by the Mayor and the City Comptroller, S&P confirmed its A- rating with
a negative outlook of the City's general obligation bonds.
 
    On May 9,  1990, Moody's  revised downward  its rating  on outstanding  City
revenue  anticipation notes from MIG-1 to MIG-2 and rated the $900 million Notes
then being sold MIG-2. On April 30, 1991 Moody's confirmed its MIG-2 rating  for
the  outstanding revenue anticipation  notes and for the  $1.25 billion in notes
then being sold.  On April 29,  1991, S&P  revised downward its  rating on  City
revenue anticipation notes from SP-1 to SP-2.
 
    As  of December 31, 1992, the City  and MAC had, respectively, $20.3 billion
and $4.7 billion of outstanding net long-term indebtedness.
 
    (3) THE STATE AGENCIES: Certain Agencies of the State have faced substantial
financial difficulties which could adversely affect the ability of such Agencies
to make payments  of interest  on, and  principal amounts  of, their  respective
bonds.  The  difficulties  have in  certain  instances caused  the  State (under
so-called  "moral  obligation"  provisions   which  are  non-binding   statutory
provisions  for State  appropriations to  maintain various  debt service reserve
funds) to appropriate funds on behalf of the Agencies. Moreover, it is  expected
that  the  problems  faced by  these  Agencies  will continue  and  will require
increasing amounts of State assistance in future years. Failure of the State  to
appropriate  necessary amounts or to take  other action to permit those Agencies
having financial  difficulties  to meet  their  obligations could  result  in  a
default by one or more of the Agencies. Such default, if it were to occur, would
be  likely to have a  significant adverse effect on  investor confidence in, and
therefore the  market  price of,  obligations  of the  defaulting  Agencies.  In
addition,  any default in payment on any  general obligation of any Agency whose
bonds contain a moral obligation provision could constitute a failure of certain
conditions that must be satisfied in connection with Federal guarantees of  City
and  MAC obligations  and could thus  jeopardize the  City's long-term financing
plans.
 
    As of  September 30,  1992,  the State  reported  that there  were  eighteen
Agencies  that each had outstanding debt of $100 million or more. These eighteen
Agencies had  an  aggregate of  $62.2  billion of  outstanding  debt,  including
refunding  bonds,  of  which  the  State  was  obligated  under  lease-purchase,
contractual obligation or moral obligation provisions on $25.3 billion.
 
    (4) STATE LITIGATION: The State is a defendant in numerous legal proceedings
pertaining to  matters incidental  to the  performance of  routine  governmental
operations.  Such litigation  includes, but is  not limited  to, claims asserted
against the State  arising from  alleged torts, alleged  breaches of  contracts,
condemnation proceedings and other alleged violations of State and Federal laws.
Included in the State's outstanding litigation are a number of cases challenging
the  constitutionality  or  the  adequacy  and  effectiveness  of  a  variety of
 
                                       37
<PAGE>
significant social  welfare  programs  primarily involving  the  State's  mental
hygiene  programs. Adverse judgments in these  matters generally could result in
injunctive relief coupled with prospective  changes in patient care which  could
require substantial increased financing of the litigated programs in the future.
 
    The  State  is  also engaged  in  a  variety of  claims  wherein significant
monetary damages are sought. Actions  commenced by several Indian nations  claim
that  significant amounts of land were unconstitutionally taken from the Indians
in violation  of  various treaties  and  agreements during  the  eighteenth  and
nineteenth  centuries. The claimants seek  recovery of approximately six million
acres of land as well as compensatory and punitive damages.
 
    The U.S. Supreme Court on March 30,  1993, referred to a Special Master  for
determination  of damages an action by the  State of Delaware to recover certain
unclaimed dividends,  interest  and  other  distributions  made  by  issuers  of
securities  held by New  York based-brokers incorporated  in Delaware. (STATE OF
DELAWARE V. STATE  OF NEW  YORK.) The State  had taken  such unclaimed  property
under  its  ABANDONED  PROPERTY  LAW.  The  State  expects  that  it  may  pay a
significant amount in damages  during fiscal year 1993-94  but it has  indicated
that it has sufficient funds on hand to pay any such award, including funds held
in  contingency  reserves.  The  State's  1993-94  Financial  Plan  includes the
establishment of  a  $100  million  contingency  reserve  fund  which  would  be
available  to fund such an award which  some reports have estimated at $100-$300
million.
 
    In SCHULZ V.  STATE OF  NEW YORK, commenced  May 24,  1993 ("SCHULZ  1993"),
petitioners have challenged the constitutionality of mass transportation bonding
programs   of  the  New  York  State  Thruway  Authority  and  the  Metropolitan
Transportation Authority. On  May 24,  1993, the Supreme  Court, Albany  County,
temporarily  enjoined  the State  from implementing  those bonding  programs. In
previous actions  Mr.  Schulz and  others  have challenged  on  similar  grounds
bonding  programs for the  New York State Urban  Development Corporation and the
New York  Local Government  Assistance  Corporation. While  there have  been  no
decisions  on the merits in  such previous actions, by  an opinion dated May 11,
1993, the New York Court of Appeals held in a proceeding commenced on April  29,
1991  in the Supreme  Court, Albany County  (SCHULZ V. STATE  OF NEW YORK), that
petitioners had standing as  voters under the State  Constitution to bring  such
action.
 
    Petitioners  in SCHULZ 1993 have asserted that  issuance of bonds by the two
Authorities is subject to approval by  statewide referendum. At this time  there
can  be  no  forecast  of  the  likelihood  of  success  on  the  merits  by the
petitioners, but  a  decision  upholding  this  constitutional  challenge  could
restrict  and limit the ability of the State and its instrumentalities to borrow
funds in the future. The State  has not indicated that the temporary  injunction
issued by the Supreme Court in this action will have any immediate impact on its
financial condition or interfere with projects requiring immediate action.
 
    On  July 1, 1993, the Appellate Division of the State Supreme Court affirmed
the decision of  the Supreme Court,  Albany County in  three actions,  declaring
unconstitutional  State  legislation  affecting  actuarial  funding  methods for
determining State  and  local contributions  to  the State  employee  retirement
system.  The State  Comptroller's office  has projected  that the  impact of the
decision with respect to 1990-91  fiscal year contributions alone could  require
additional State and local employer contributions of approximately $800 million.
A  final adverse decision in  these three actions could  have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition of the State and its local governments.
 
    Adverse developments in the foregoing  proceedings or new proceedings  could
adversely affect the financial condition of the State in the future.
 
    (5)  OTHER MUNICIPALITIES: Certain  localities in addition  to New York City
could  have  financial  problems  leading  to  requests  for  additional   State
assistance. The potential impact
 
                                       38
<PAGE>
on  the State of  such actions by  localities is not  included in projections of
State receipts and expenditures in the State's 1993-94 fiscal year.
 
    Fiscal difficulties experienced by the City of Yonkers ("Yonkers")  resulted
in  the creation  of the Financial  Control Board  for the City  of Yonkers (the
"Yonkers Board")  by  the State  in  1984. The  Yonkers  Board is  charged  with
oversight of the fiscal affairs of Yonkers. Future actions taken by the Governor
or  the State Legislature to assist Yonkers  could result in allocation of State
resources in amounts that cannot yet be determined.
 
    Municipalities and school districts  have engaged in substantial  short-term
and  long-term borrowings. In 1991, the  total indebtedness of all localities in
the State was approximately  $31.6 billion, of which  $16.8 billion was debt  of
New  York City  (excluding $6.7  billion in  MAC debt).  State law  requires the
Comptroller to review and make  recommendations concerning the budgets of  those
local government units other than New York City authorized by State law to issue
debt  to  finance deficits  during  the period  that  such deficit  financing is
outstanding. Fifteen localities had outstanding indebtedness for state financing
at the close of their  fiscal year ending in 1991.  In 1992, an unusually  large
number of local government units requested authorization for deficit financings.
According to the Comptroller, ten local government units have been authorized to
issue deficit financing in the aggregate amount of $131.1 million.
 
    Certain  proposed Federal  expenditure reductions  could reduce,  or in some
cases eliminate, Federal funding  of some local  programs and accordingly  might
impose substantial increased expenditure requirements on affected localities. If
the State, New York City or any of the Agencies were to suffer serious financial
difficulties  jeopardizing their respective access to the public credit markets,
the marketability of  notes and  bonds issued  by localities  within the  State,
including  notes or  bonds in  the New  York Insured  Trust, could  be adversely
affected. Localities also face anticipated and potential problems resulting from
certain pending litigation, judicial decisions, and long-range economic  trends.
The  longer-range potential  problems of declining  urban population, increasing
expenditures, and other  economic trends could  adversely affect localities  and
require increasing State assistance in the future.
 
    (6)  OTHER ISSUERS OF NEW YORK MUNICIPAL  OBLIGATIONS. There are a number of
other agencies, instrumentalities and political  subdivisions of the State  that
issue  Municipal Obligations, some  of which may  be conduit revenue obligations
payable from  payments from  private borrowers.  These entities  are subject  to
various  economic  risks  and  uncertainties,  and  the  credit  quality  of the
securities issued  by them  may vary  considerably from  the credit  quality  of
obligations backed by the full faith and credit of the State.

NEW YORK TAXABLE ESTIMATED CURRENT RETURN TABLE
 
    The  following tables show the approximate taxable estimated current returns
for individuals  that are  equivalent to  tax-exempt estimated  current  returns
under  combined Federal,  state and local  taxes, using  published 1994 marginal
Federal tax rates and marginal state and local tax rates currently available and
scheduled to  be in  effect.  The tables  incorporate  increased tax  rates  for
higher-income  taxpayers that were included in the Revenue Reconciliation Act of
1993. For cases  in which  two state  or local  brackets fall  within a  federal
bracket, the higher state or local bracket is combined with the federal bracket.
The  combined local, state and Federal tax  brackets shown reflect the fact that
state and local tax payments are currently deductible for Federal tax  purposes.
The  tables illustrate  what you  would have to  earn on  taxable investments to
equal the tax-exempt  estimated current return  for your income  tax bracket.  A
taxpayer's  marginal tax  rate is  affected by both  his taxable  income and his
adjusted gross income. Locate your adjusted gross and your taxable income (which
is your adjusted gross  income reduced by any  deductions and exemptions),  then
locate  your tax bracket based on joint or single tax filing. Read across to the
equivalent taxable estimated current return you would need to match the tax-free
income.

      1 The table reflects the effect of the limitations  on itemized deductions and the deduction for personal exemptions.  They
were  designed to phase out certain benefits of these deductions for higher income taxpayers. These limitations, in effect, raise
the marginal Federal tax rate  to approximately 44.0 percent for  taxpayers filing a joint return  and entitled to four  personal
exemptions  and to approximately 41.0 percent for taxpayers filing a single return entitled to only one personal exemption. These
limitations are subject  to certain  maximums, which depend  on the  number of  exemptions claimed and  the total  amount of  the
taxpayer's  itemized deductions. For example, the limitation  on itemized deductions will not cause  a taxpayer to lose more than
80% of his allowable itemized deductions, with certain exceptions. The table also reflects the New York State supplemental income
tax based upon a taxpayer's New York State taxable income and New York State adjusted gross income. This supplemental tax results
in an increased marginal state  income tax rate to the  extent a taxpayer's New York  State adjusted gross income ranges  between
$100,000  and $150,000. The table  does not, however, reflect  the amendments to the  New York State income  tax law that imposes
limitations on the deductibility of itemized deductions. The application of the New York State limitation on itemized  deductions
may result in a higher combined Federal, State and local tax rate than indicated in the table. The table assumes for this purpose
that a taxpayer's New York State adjusted income equals his Federal adjusted gross income.
      2 Federal tax rate reverts to 36.0% after the 80% cap on the limitation on itemized deductions has been met.
      3 Federal tax rate reverts to 39.6% after the 80% cap on the limitation on itemized deductions has been met.

    A  comparison of tax-free  and equivalent taxable  estimated current returns
with the returns on  various taxable investments is  one element to consider  in
making  an  investment  decision. The  Sponsor  may  from time  to  time  in its
advertising and sales materials  compare the then  current estimated returns  on
the Trust and returns over specified periods on other

similar  Nuveen Trusts with returns on  taxable investments such as corporate or
U.S. Government  bonds, bank  CD's and  money market  accounts or  money  market
funds,  each of which has investment  characteristics that may differ from those
of the Trust. U.S. Government bonds, for  example, are backed by the full  faith
and  credit of the U.S.  Government and bank CD's  and money market accounts are
insured by an agency of the federal government. Money market accounts and  money
market funds provide stability of principal, but pay interest at rates that vary
with the condition of the short-term debt market. The investment characteristics
of the Trust are described more fully elsewhere in this Prospectus.

PENNSYLVANIA INSURED TRUST 177
    
 
   
    The  Portfolio of Pennsylvania  Insured Trust 177  consists of 7 obligations
issued by  entities located  in Pennsylvania  and one  obligation issued  by  an
entity  located in  the Territory  of Puerto  Rico. Two  Bonds in  the Trust are
general obligations of the governmental entities issuing them and are backed  by
the  taxing powers thereof. Six  Bonds in the Trust  are payable as to principal
and interest from  the income of  a specific  project or authority  and are  not
supported  by the issuer's power to levy taxes. The sources of payment for these
bonds are divided  as follows:  Dedicated-Tax Supported Revenue,  1; Bridge  and
Toll  Road  Revenue, 1;  College and  University  Revenue, 1;  Electrical System
Revenue, 1; Health Care Facility Revenue, 2.  All of the Bonds in the Trust,  as
insured,  are rated  AAA by  Standard &  Poor's Corporation  and Aaa  by Moody's
Investors Service, Inc.
    
 
   
    At  the  Date  of  Deposit,  the  average  maturity  of  the  Bonds  in  the
Pennsylvania Insured Trust is 27.2 years. The average maturity of the Bonds in a
Trust  is calculated based upon the stated maturities of the Bonds in such Trust
(or, with respect to  Bonds for which  funds or securities  have been placed  in
escrow  to redeem such Bonds on a stated  call date, based upon such call date).
The average maturity of the Bonds in a Trust may increase or decrease from  time
to time as Bonds mature or are called or sold.
    
 
   
    Approximately  45.0% of the  aggregate principal amount of  the Bonds in the
Trust (accounting for approximately 45.7% of the aggregate offering price of the
Bonds)   are    original   issue    discount   bonds.    See   "GENERAL    TRUST
INFORMATION--ORIGINAL  ISSUE  DISCOUNT  BONDS AND  STRIPPED  OBLIGATIONS"  for a
discussion of the  characteristics of  such bonds  and of  the risks  associated
therewith.
    
 
    Approximately  21% of  the aggregate  principal amount  of the  Bonds in the
Trust consists of obligations  of issuers whose  revenues are primarily  derived
from services provided by hospitals or other health care facilities.
 
    For  a discussion of the  risks associated with investments  in the bonds of
various issuers, see "General Trust Information" in this section.
 
   
    The Sponsor entered  into contracts to  acquire the Bonds  between March  8,
1994  and March 10, 1994. The following summarizes certain information about the
Bonds as of the business day prior to the Date of Deposit:

</TABLE>
 
    Neither  cost  to  Sponsor  nor   profit  (or  loss)  to  Sponsor   reflects
underwriting  profits or losses received or  incurred by the Sponsor through its
participation  in  underwriting  syndicates.  An  underwriter  or   underwriting
syndicate  purchases bonds  from the issuer  on a negotiated  or competitive bid
basis as principal with  the motive of  marketing such bonds  to investors at  a
profit.  The Sponsor did not participate as  either the sole underwriter or as a
manager or member of a syndicate that  acted as the original underwriter of  any
of the Bonds.
 
   
    Unitholders  may elect  to have  interest distributions  made on  a monthly,
quarterly or semi-annual basis. The interest on the Bonds initially deposited in
the Pennsylvania Insured Trust, less estimated expenses, is estimated to  accrue
at  the  rate  of  $.01483  per  Unit per  day  under  the  semi-annual  plan of
distribution, $.01478 per Unit per day under the quarterly plan of  distribution
and    $.01469    per   Unit    per   day    under    the   monthly    plan   of

distribution. It is anticipated  that the amount of  interest to be  distributed
per  Unit  in  each year  under  each  plan of  distribution  will  initially be
substantially equal to  the Estimated Net  Annual Interest Income  per Unit  for
that plan.
 
    Details of interest distributions per Unit of the Pennsylvania Insured Trust
under  the various plans appear in the  following table based upon estimated Net
Annual Interest Income at the Date of Deposit:

TAX STATUS--PENNSYLVANIA INSURED TRUST
 
    For  a discussion of the Federal tax status of income earned on Pennsylvania
Insured Trust Units, see Section 11.
 
    In the opinion of  Dechert Price & Rhoads,  special Pennsylvania counsel  to
the Series, under existing law:
 
        Units  evidencing  fractional  undivided interests  in  the Pennsylvania
    Insured Trust  are  not  subject  to any  of  the  personal  property  taxes
    presently  in effect in Pennsylvania to the extent of that proportion of the
    Trust represented by Bonds issued  by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,  its
    agencies  and  instrumentalities, or  by  any county,  city,  borough, town,
    township,  school  district,  municipality  and  local  housing  or  parking
    authority  in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or issued by Puerto Rico, the
    Virgin Islands, Guam or the Northern Mariana Islands ("Pennsylvania Bonds").
    The taxes referred to  above include the County  Personal Property Tax,  the
    additional  personal property taxes  imposed on Pittsburgh  residents by the
    School District of Pittsburgh  and by the  City of Pittsburgh.  Pennsylvania
    Insured  Trust Units may  be taxable under  the Pennsylvania inheritance and
    estate taxes.
 
        The proportion  of interest  income  representing interest  income  from
    Pennsylvania  Bonds distributed  to Unitholders of  the Pennsylvania Insured
    Trust is not taxable under the Pennsylvania Personal Income Tax or under the
    Corporate Net Income Tax  imposed on corporations by  Article IV of the  Tax
    Reform Code. Nor will such interest be taxable under the Philadelphia School
    District Investment Income Tax imposed on Philadelphia resident individuals.
 
        The disposition by the Pennsylvania Insured Trust of a Pennsylvania Bond
    (whether  by sale,  exchange, redemption  or payment  at maturity)  will not
    constitute a taxable
 
                                       45
<PAGE>
    event to a  Unitholder under  the Pennsylvania  Personal Income  Tax if  the
    Pennsylvania  Bond was issued  prior to February  1, 1994. Further, although
    there is no published  authority on the subject,  counsel is of the  opinion
    that  (i) a  Unitholder of  the Pennsylvania Insured  Trust will  not have a
    taxable event under the Pennsylvania  state and local income taxes  referred
    to in the preceding paragraph (other than the Corporate Net Income Tax) upon
    the  redemption or  sale of  his Unit  to the  extent that  the Pennsylvania
    Insured Trust  is  then comprised  of  Pennsylvania Bonds  issued  prior  to
    February 1, 1994 and (ii) the dispositions by the Pennsylvania Insured Trust
    of  a Pennsylvania Bond (whether by sale, exchange, redemption or payment at
    maturity) will not  constitute a  taxable event  to a  Unitholder under  the
    Corporate  Net  Income Tax  or the  Philadelphia School  District Investment
    Income Tax if the  Pennsylvania Bond was issued  prior to February 1,  1994.
    (The  School District tax has  no application to gain  on the disposition of
    property held by the taxpayer for more than six months.)
 
        Gains on the  sale, exchange, redemption,  or payment at  maturity of  a
    Pennsylvania Bond issued on or after February 1, 1994, will be taxable under
    all of these taxes, as will gains on the redemption or sale of a unit to the
    extent  that the Trust is comprised of Pennsylvania Bonds issued on or after
    February 1, 1994.
 
ECONOMIC FACTORS--PENNSYLVANIA
 
    RISK  FACTORS--Prospective   investors   should   consider   the   financial
difficulties and pressures which the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and certain of
its municipal subdivisions have undergone. Both the Commonwealth and the City of
Philadelphia  are experiencing significant  revenue shortfalls. There  can be no
assurance that  the  Commonwealth  will  not experience  a  further  decline  in
economic  conditions or that portions of  the municipal obligations purchased by
the Fund  will not  be  affected by  such a  decline.  Without intending  to  be
complete,  the following briefly  summarizes some of  these difficulties and the
current financial situation, as  well as some of  the complex factors  affecting
the financial situation in the Commonwealth. It is derived from sources that are
generally  available to investors  and is based in  part on information obtained
from various agencies in the Commonwealth. No independent verification has  been
made of the following information.
 
    STATE  ECONOMY--Pennsylvania  has been  historically  identified as  a heavy
industry state although that reputation  has changed recently as the  industrial
composition  of the Commonwealth  diversified when the  coal, steel and railroad
industries began to decline. The major new sources of growth in the Commonwealth
are in  the  service  sector,  including trade,  medical  and  health  services,
education and financial institutions. The Commonwealth's agricultural industries
are  also an important component of  its economic structure, accounting for more
than $3.6 billion in crop and livestock products annually while agribusiness and
food related industries support $38 billion in economic activity annually.
 
    Non-agricultural employment within the  Commonwealth has increased  steadily
from  1984 to its 1992 level of 81.3  percent of total employment. The growth in
employment experienced  in  the Commonwealth  is  comparable to  the  nationwide
growth   in  employment  which  has  occurred   during  this  period.  In  1992,
manufacturing  employment  represented  18.7  percent  of  all  non-agricultural
employment  in the  Commonwealth while  the services  sector accounted  for 29.3
percent and the trade sector accounted for 22.7 percent.
 
    The Commonwealth is currently  facing a slowdown  in its economy.  Moreover,
economic  strengths and weaknesses vary in  different parts of the Commonwealth.
In general, heavy
 
                                       46
<PAGE>
   
industry and manufacturing have been facing increasing competition from  foreign
producers. During 1992, the annual average unemployment rate in the Commonwealth
was  7.5 percent compared to 7.4 percent for the United States. For January 1994
the unadjusted unemployment  rate was 6.7  percent in the  Commonwealth and  7.3
percent  in the United  States, while the  seasonally adjusted unemployment rate
for the Commonwealth was 6.0 percent and for the United States was 7.3 percent.
    
    STATE BUDGET--The  Commonwealth operates  under an  annual budget  which  is
formulated and submitted for legislative approval by the Governor each February.
The  Pennsylvania  Constitution  requires that  the  Governor's  budget proposal
consist of three parts: (i) a  balanced operating budget setting forth  proposed
expenditures  and estimated revenues from all sources and, if estimated revenues
and available surplus are less than proposed expenditures, recommending specific
additional sources of revenue sufficient to  pay the deficiency; (ii) a  capital
budget  setting forth proposed expenditures to  be financed from the proceeds of
obligations of the  Commonwealth or its  agencies or from  operating funds;  and
(iii) a financial plan for not less than the succeeding five fiscal years, which
includes  for each year projected  operating expenditures and estimated revenues
and projected expenditures for capital  projects. The General Assembly may  add,
change  or delete  any items  in the  budget prepared  by the  Governor, but the
Governor retains veto  power over  the individual appropriations  passed by  the
legislature.  The Commonwealth's fiscal year  begins on July 1  and ends on June
30.
 
    All funds  received by  the  Commonwealth are  subject to  appropriation  in
specific  amounts by the  General Assembly or by  executive authorization by the
Governor. Total appropriations enacted  by the General  Assembly may not  exceed
the  ensuing  year's estimated  revenues,  plus (less)  the  unappropriated fund
balance (deficit) of the preceding year, except for constitutionally  authorized
debt  service payments. Appropriations from the principal operating funds of the
Commonwealth (the General  Fund, the Motor  License Fund and  the State  Lottery
Fund)  are  generally  made  for  one  fiscal  year  and  are  returned  to  the
unappropriated surplus of the fund if not spent or encumbered by the end of  the
fiscal year. The Constitution specifies that a surplus of operating funds at the
end of a fiscal year must be appropriated for the ensuing year.
 
    Pennsylvania   uses  the  "fund"  method  of  accounting  for  receipts  and
disbursements. For purposes of government accounting, a "fund" is an independent
fiscal and accounting entity  with a self-balancing  set of accounts,  recording
cash  and/or other resources together with all related liabilities and equities.
In the  Commonwealth,  over  120  funds have  been  established  by  legislative
enactment  or  in certain  cases  by administrative  action  for the  purpose of
recording the receipts and disbursement of moneys received by the  Commonwealth.
Annual budgets are adopted each fiscal year for the principal operating funds of
the  Commonwealth  and several  other  special revenue  funds.  Expenditures and
encumbrances against  these funds  may only  be made  pursuant to  appropriation
measures  enacted  by the  General Assembly  and approved  by the  Governor. The
General Fund,  the  Commonwealth's  largest fund,  receives  all  tax  revenues,
non-tax  revenues and federal grants and  entitlements that are not specified by
law to be deposited elsewhere. The majority of the Commonwealth's operating  and
administrative  expenses are payable from the  General Fund. Debt service on all
bond indebtedness of the Commonwealth,  except that issued for highway  purposes
or  for the benefit of other special  revenue funds, is payable from the General
Fund.
 
   
    Financial information for the principal operating funds of the  Commonwealth
are maintained on a budgetary basis of accounting, which is used for the purpose
of  ensuring compliance with the enacted operating budget. The Commonwealth also
prepares annual financial
    
 
                                       47
<PAGE>
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").
Budgetary basis  financial  reports  are  based on  a  modified  cash  basis  of
accounting  as opposed to  a modified accrual basis  of accounting prescribed by
GAAP.  Financial  information  is  adjusted   at  fiscal  year-end  to   reflect
appropriate accruals for financial reporting in conformity with GAAP.
 
    RECENT  FINANCIAL RESULTS--At  the end of  fiscal 1990 and  fiscal 1991, the
unreserved -undesignated  fund  balance was  a  negative $205.8  million  and  a
negative  $1,189.2 million,  respectively, a drop  of $579.6  million and $983.4
million, respectively, from the year-earlier amounts. The decline in the  fiscal
1990  unreserved-undesignated fund balance for government fund types was largely
the result  of a  $718.2 million  operating deficit  in the  General Fund  which
caused  the total fund balance of the General  Fund to fall to a negative $119.8
million at June 30, 1990. The decline in the fiscal 1991 unreserved-undesignated
fund balance  was  principally the  result  of operating  deficits  of  $1,076.6
million  and  $66.2 million,  respectively, in  the General  Fund and  the State
Lottery Fund.
 
    Rising  demands  on  state  programs  caused  by  the  economic   recession,
particularly  for  medical  assistance  and cash  assistance  programs,  and the
increased costs  of special  education programs  and correction  facilities  and
programs,  contributed  to  increased  expenditures in  fiscal  1991,  while tax
revenues for  the  1991 fiscal  year  were  severely affected  by  the  economic
recession.  Total corporation tax receipts and sales and use tax receipts during
fiscal 1991  were,  respectively, 7.3  percent  and 0.9  percent  below  amounts
collected during fiscal 1990. Personal income tax receipts also were affected by
the  recession but  not to  the extent  of the  other major  General Fund taxes,
increasing only 2.0 percent over fiscal 1990 collections.
 
    The Commonwealth experienced a $454 million  general fund deficit as of  the
end  of  its 1991  fiscal year.  The  deficit reflected  below-estimate economic
activity  and  growth  rates  of  economic  indicators  and  total  tax  revenue
shortfalls  of $817  million (4.1  percent) below  those assumed  in the enacted
budget. Economic conditions  also affected  expenditure trends  during the  1991
fiscal  year, with  expenditures for  medical assistance  costs and  other human
service programs  running  $512 million  above  estimates assumed  in  the  1991
budget.  In January  1991, the  Commonwealth initiated  a number  of cost-saving
measures, including the firing of  2,000 state employees, deferral of  paychecks
and  reduction of funds  to state universities,  which resulted in approximately
$871 million cost savings.
 
    Total general fund revenues for fiscal 1992 were $14,516.8 million, which is
approximately 22 percent higher than  fiscal 1991 revenues of $11,877.3  million
due  in large part  to tax increases. The  increased revenues funded substantial
increases in education, social services and corrections programs. As a result of
the tax increases and  certain appropriation lapses, fiscal  1992 ended with  an
$8.8  million  surplus  after having  started  the year  with  an unappropriated
balance deficit of $454 million.
 
    FISCAL  1993  BUDGET.--On  June  30,  1992,  the  Pennsylvania   legislature
presented  the Governor with a $14.126 billion  general fund budget for the 1993
fiscal year,  which  began on  July  1, 1992.  Before  signing the  budget,  the
Governor deleted approximately $73 million in certain state expenditures such as
aid to county courts and district justices. As a result, the budget for the 1993
fiscal  year  was approximately  $14.046  billion, which  is  approximately $105
million more than  the fiscal  1992 budget. On  February 9,  1993, the  Governor
announced  that he anticipated that  the 1993 budget would  be in balance at the
end of the fiscal year.
 
                                       48
<PAGE>
    FISCAL 1994 BUDGET--On  May 28, 1993,  the Governor signed  a $14.9  billion
general  fund budget, an increase of  approximately five percent from the fiscal
1993 budget.  A substantial  amount  of the  increase  is targeted  for  medical
assistance programs and prisons.
 
   
____FISCAL  1995  BUDGET--On February  8, 1994,  the  Governor proposed  a $15.9
billion general fund budget,  an increase of over  four percent from the  Fiscal
1994 budget. A substantial amount of the increase is targeted for human services
and prisons.
    
   
    DEBT  LIMITS AND OUTSTANDING DEBT--The Pennsylvania Constitution permits the
issuance of the following  types of debt: (i)  debt to suppress insurrection  or
rehabilitate  areas affected by  disaster; (ii) electorate  approved debt; (iii)
debt for capital projects subject to an aggregate outstanding debt limit of 1.75
times the annual average  tax revenues of the  preceding five fiscal years;  and
(iv) tax anticipation notes payable in the fiscal year of issuance.
    
 
   
    Under the Pennsylvania Fiscal Code, the Auditor General is required annually
to  certify  to  the  Governor  and  the  General  Assembly  certain information
regarding the Commonwealth's indebtedness. According to the most recent  Auditor
General  certificate, the average annual tax  revenues deposited in all funds in
the five fiscal years ended June 30, 1993 was $14.5 billion, and therefore,  the
net  debt limitation for the 1994 fiscal  year is $27.1 billion. Outstanding net
debt totaled $4.0 billion  at June 30,  1993, a decrease  of $42.2 million  from
June  30, 1992. At February 28, 1994, the amount of debt authorized by law to be
issued, but not yet incurred was $15.0 billion.
    
    DEBT RATINGS--All outstanding general  obligation bonds of the  Commonwealth
are rated AA- by S&P and A1 by Moody's.
 
    CITY  OF  PHILADELPHIA--The City  of  Philadelphia experienced  a  series of
general fund deficits for fiscal years  1988 through 1992 which have  culminated
in  the City's present serious financial difficulties. In its 1992 Comprehensive
Annual Financial Report, Philadelphia reported a cumulative general fund deficit
of $71.4 million for fiscal year 1992.
 
   
    In June  1991, the  Pennsylvania  legislature established  the  Pennsylvania
Intergovernmental  Cooperation  Authority  ("PICA"), a  five-member  board which
oversees the  fiscal  affairs  of  the City  of  Philadelphia.  The  Legislation
empowers  PICA to  issue notes  and bonds  on behalf  of Philadelphia,  and also
authorizes Philadelphia to levy  a one-percent sales tax  the proceeds of  which
would  be used  to pay off  the bonds.  In return for  PICA's fiscal assistance,
Philadelphia is required, among other things, to establish a five-year financial
plans  that  include  balanced  annual   budgets.  Under  the  legislation,   if
Philadelphia  does not  comply with  such requirements,  PICA may  withhold bond
revenues and certain state funding.
    
 
   
    In May 1992,  the city counsel  of Philadelphia approved  the Mayor's  first
five-year  plan and  adopted a fiscal  1993 budget.  On June 5,  1992, PICA sold
approximately $480 million in bonds at yields ranging from 5.25 percent to  6.88
percent.  The proceeds  of the bonds  were used to  cover shortfalls accumulated
over fiscal years 1988  through 1991, projected deficits  for fiscal years  1992
and  1993, construction projects  and other capital  expenditures. In accordance
with the enabling legislation, PICA was guaranteed a percentage of the wage  tax
revenue expected to be collected from Philadelphia residents to permit repayment
of the bonds.
    
 
    In  January 1993, Philadelphia anticipated  a cumulative general fund budget
deficit of $57 million for the 1993 fiscal year. In response to the  anticipated
deficit,  the Mayor unveiled a financial plan eliminating the budget deficit for
the 1993 budget year through significant
 
                                       49
<PAGE>
service cuts that included a plan  to privatize certain city provided  services.
Due  to an upsurge in tax receipts, cost-cutting and additional PICA borrowings,
Philadelphia completed the 1993 fiscal year with a balanced general fund budget.
 
   
    In January 1994, the Mayor proposed a $2.3 billion city general fund  budget
that  included no  tax increases,  no significant service  cuts and  a series of
modest health  and welfare  program  increases. At  that  time, the  Mayor  also
unveiled  a $2.2 billion program  (the "Philadelphia Economic Stimulus Program")
designed to stimulate Philadelphia's economy and  stop the loss of 1,000 jobs  a
month.  However, the success  of the Philadelphia  Economic Stimulus Program has
been predicated upon several contingencies including, among others, $250 million
in revenues from riverboat gambling over the next three years, which first  must
be  approved by the state legislature,  and $100 million in federal "empowerment
zone" subsidies, which Philadelphia may or may not receive. As of January  1994,
the  1994 general  fund budget  was running  at a  deficit of  approximately $10
million. The Mayor has predicted that the  general fund will be balanced by  the
end of the 1994 fiscal year.
    
 
   
____The  Standard & Poor's Corporation rating on Philadelphia general obligation
bonds is "BB." The Moody's Investors Service rating is currently "Ba."
    
   
    LITIGATION--The Commonwealth is  a party  to numerous lawsuits  in which  an
adverse  final decision could materially  affect the Commonwealth's governmental
operations and consequently its ability to pay debt service on its  obligations.
The  Commonwealth also faces tort claims made  possible by the limited waiver of
sovereign immunity effected by Act 152, approved September 28, 1978.
    
 
PENNSYLVANIA TAXABLE ESTIMATED CURRENT RETURN TABLE
 
    The following tables show the approximate taxable estimated current  returns
for  individuals  that are  equivalent to  tax-exempt estimated  current returns
under combined Federal and  state taxes, using  published 1994 marginal  Federal
tax  rates and marginal state tax rates  currently available and scheduled to be
in  effect.  The  tables  incorporate  increased  tax  rates  for  higher-income
taxpayers  that were  included in  the Revenue  Reconciliation Act  of 1993. For
cases in which more than one state  bracket falls within a Federal bracket,  the
highest  state bracket is combined with  the Federal bracket. The combined state
and Federal tax  brackets shown  reflect the fact  that state  tax payments  are
currently  deductible for Federal  tax purposes. The  tables illustrate what you
would have to  earn on  taxable investments  to equal  the tax-exempt  estimated
current  return for your income  tax bracket. A taxpayer's  marginal tax rate is
affected by both his taxable income  and his adjusted gross income. Locate  your
adjusted  gross and  your taxable  income (which  is your  adjusted gross income
reduced by any deductions and exemptions), then locate your tax bracket based on
joint or single  tax filing.  Read across  to the  equivalent taxable  estimated
current return you would need to match the tax-free income.

      1  The table reflects the effect of the limitations on  itemized deductions and the deduction for personal exemptions. They
were designed to phase out certain benefits of these deductions for higher income taxpayers. These limitations, in effect,  raise
the  current maximum marginal Federal tax rate to approximately 44.0  percent for taxpayers filing a joint return and entitled to
four personal exemptions and to  approximately 41.0 percent for  taxpayers filing a single return  entitled to only one  personal
exemption.  These limitations are  subject to certain maximums,  which depend on  the number of exemptions  claimed and the total
amount of the taxpayer's itemized  deductions. For example, the  limitation on itemized deductions will  not cause a taxpayer  to
lose more than 80% of his allowable itemized deductions, with certain exceptions.
      2 Federal tax rate reverts to 36.0% after the 80% cap on the limitation on itemized deductions has been met.
      3 Federal tax rate reverts to 39.6% after the 80% cap on the limitation on itemized deductions has been met.
</TABLE>
 
    A  comparison of tax-free  and equivalent taxable  estimated current returns
with the returns on  various taxable investments is  one element to consider  in
making  an  investment  decision. The  Sponsor  may  from time  to  time  in its
advertising and sales materials  compare the then  current estimated returns  on
the Trust and returns over specified periods on other similar Nuveen Trusts with
returns  on taxable investments such as corporate or U.S. Government bonds, bank
CD's and  money  market  accounts or  money  market  funds, each  of  which  has
investment  characteristics  that  may  differ from  those  of  the  Trust. U.S.
Government bonds, for example, are  backed by the full  faith and credit of  the
U.S. Government and bank CD's and money market accounts are insured by an agency
of  the federal government. Money market accounts and money market funds provide
stability of principal, but pay interest  at rates that vary with the  condition
of  the short-term debt market. The  investment characteristics of the Trust are
described more fully elsewhere in this Prospectus.

NOTES TO SCHEDULES OF INVESTMENTS
 
    (1) Contracts,  which  are  "when-issued"  or  "regular  way"  contracts  or
        contracts having delivery dates beyond the normal settlement date,  have
        been  deposited with the Trustee on the Date of Deposit. The performance
        of such contracts is secured by an irrevocable letter of credit,  issued
        by  a major commercial bank, which  has been deposited with the Trustee.
        At the Date  of Deposit, Bonds  may have been  delivered to the  Sponsor
        pursuant  to certain of these contracts; the Sponsor has assigned to the
        Trustee all of its right, title and interest in and to such Bonds.
 
    (2) The Bonds are first subject to optional redemption in the years, and  at
        the  prices, shown.  Unless otherwise  indicated, the  Bonds, except for
        Bonds issued at a substantial original issue discount, are redeemable at
        declining prices (but not below par value) in subsequent years. Original
        issue  discount  bonds,  including  zero  coupon  bonds,  are  generally
        redeemable  at  prices  based on  the  issue  price plus  the  amount of
        original issue discount accreted to redemption plus, if applicable, some
        premium, the amount of which will decline in subsequent years. The Bonds
        may also be subject to sinking fund redemption without premium prior  to
        the dates shown.
 
        Certain  Bonds may be subject to redemption without premium prior to the
        date shown  pursuant  to  special  or  mandatory  call  provisions;  for
        example,  if bond proceeds are not able  to be used as contemplated, the
        project is condemned or sold, or the project is destroyed and  insurance
        proceeds  are used to  redeem the bonds.  Single family mortgage revenue
        bonds and housing authority bonds are  most likely to be called  subject
        to  such provisions, but other bonds may have similar call features. See
        Section 4 and "General Trust Information" in this Section.
 
        The Trustee's determination of the offering prices of Bonds in the  Fund
        may  be  greater or  less than  the  amounts that  may be  received upon
        redemption or  maturity  of  such Bonds.  Subject  to  rules  concerning
        amortization  of bond  premium and of  original issue  discount, gain or
        loss realized  by  the Trustee  on  disposition  of any  Bonds  will  be
        recognized  as taxable capital gain or loss by Unitholders. (See Section
        4.)
 
    (3) See "Description  of  Ratings" herein.  All  the Bonds  in  the  Insured
        Trusts,  as insured by the  Insurer, are rated AAA  by Standard & Poor's
        Corporation and Aaa by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. (See Section 5.)
 
    (4) As determined by Kenny S&P Evaluation Services on behalf of the  Trustee
        as  of the close of  business on the business  day preceding the Date of
        Deposit. The prices as determined by Kenny S&P Evaluation Services  have
        been rounded to the nearest dollar.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
   
     TO  THE  BOARD OF  DIRECTORS  OF JOHN  NUVEEN  & CO.  INCORPORATED AND
     UNITHOLDERS OF NUVEEN TAX-EXEMPT UNIT TRUST, SERIES 719:
    
 
   
       We have audited  the accompanying  statements of  condition and  the
     related  schedules of investments at date  of deposit (included in the
     prospectus  herein)  of  Nuveen  Tax-Exempt  Unit  Trust,  Series  719
     (comprising  Maryland  Traditional Trust  292, National  Insured Trust
     266, Georgia  Insured  Trust  35,  New  York  Insured  Trust  213  and
     Pennsylvania Insured Trust 177), as of March 11, 1994. These financial
     statements  are the responsibility of  the Sponsor. Our responsibility
     is to express an  opinion on these financial  statements based on  our
     audits.
    
 
       We  conducted  our  audits  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
     statements are  free  of  material  misstatement.  An  audit  includes
     examining,  on  a  test  basis, evidence  supporting  the  amounts and
     disclosures in  the  financial  statements.  Our  procedures  included
     confirmation  of the irrevocable letter  of credit arrangement for the
     purchase of securities,  described in  Note (1) to  the statements  of
     condition,  by correspondence with the Trustee. An audit also includes
     assessing the  accounting principles  used and  significant  estimates
     made  by  the Sponsor,  as well  as  evaluating the  overall financial
     statement  presentation.  We  believe   that  our  audits  provide   a
     reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
   
       In  our  opinion,  the  statements  of  condition  and  the  related
     schedules of investments at date of deposit referred to above  present
     fairly,  in all material  respects, the financial  position of each of
     the trusts constituting the Nuveen  Tax-Exempt Unit Trust, Series  719
     as of March 11, 1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
     principles.

GENERAL TRUST INFORMATION
 
    An  investment in Units of any Trust should be made with an understanding of
the risks that  such an investment  may entail.  As set forth  in the  portfolio
summaries above, the Trusts may contain or be concentrated in one or more of the
types  of  bonds  discussed  below.  The  following  paragraphs  discuss certain
circumstances which may adversely affect the ability of issuers of Bonds held in
the portfolio of a Trust  to make payment of  principal and interest thereon  or
which  may adversely affect the  ratings of such Bonds;  with respect to Insured
Trusts, however, because  of the  insurance obtained by  the Sponsor  or by  the
issuers  of  the Bonds,  such  changes should  not  adversely affect  an Insured
Trust's receipt of principal and interest, the Standard & Poor's AAA or  Moody's
Aaa  ratings of  the Bonds  in the  Insured Trust  portfolio, or  the Standard &
Poor's AAA rating of the Units of each such Insured Trust.
 
    HEALTH FACILITY  OBLIGATIONS.    Some  of  the  Bonds  in  a  Trust  may  be
obligations  of issuers  whose revenues  are derived  from services  provided by
hospitals or other health care  facilities, including nursing homes. Ratings  of
bonds  issued  for health  care facilities  are  sometimes based  on feasibility
studies that contain projections of  occupancy levels, revenues and expenses.  A
facility's  gross  receipts and  net income  available for  debt service  may be
affected by future events and  conditions including, among other things,  demand
for  services, the ability of the facility  to provide the services required, an
increasing shortage of qualified nurses or a dramatic rise in nursing  salaries,
physicians'  confidence  in  the  facility,  management  capabilities,  economic
developments in  the service  area, competition  from other  similar  providers,
efforts  by  insurers  and  governmental agencies  to  limit  rates, legislation
establishing state rate-setting agencies,  expenses, government regulation,  the
cost  and possible unavailability of  malpractice insurance, and the termination
or restriction of governmental  financial assistance, including that  associated
with  Medicare, Medicaid and other similar  third party payor programs. Medicare
reimbursements are currently calculated on a prospective basis and are not based
on a provider's actual costs. Such method of reimbursement may adversely  affect
reimbursements to hospitals and other facilities for services provided under the
Medicare  program and thereby may have an  adverse effect on the ability of such
institutions to satisfy  debt service requirements.  In the event  of a  default
upon  a bond  secured by hospital  facilities, the limited  alternative uses for
such facilities may result  in the recovery upon  such collateral not  providing
sufficient funds to fully repay the bonds.
 
    Certain  hospital  bonds  provide for  redemption  at par  upon  the damage,
destruction or  condemnation of  the  hospital facilities  or in  other  special
circumstances.
 
    HOUSING  OBLIGATIONS.  Some  of the Bonds  in a Trust  may be obligations of
issuers whose  revenues are  primarily derived  from mortgage  loans to  housing
projects  for  low  to  moderate  income  families.  Such  issues  are generally
characterized by mandatory redemption at par  or, in the case of original  issue
discount  bonds, accreted  value in  the event of  economic defaults  and in the
event of a failure of the operator of a project to comply with certain covenants
as to the operation of the project. The failure of such operator to comply  with
certain  covenants related  to the tax-exempt  status of interest  on the Bonds,
such as provisions requiring that a  specified percentage of units be rented  or
available for rental to low or moderate income families, potentially could cause
interest on such Bonds to be subject to Federal income taxation from the date of
issuance of the Bonds. The ability of such issuers to make debt service payments
will   be  affected  by  events  and  conditions  affecting  financed  projects,
including, among other  things, the  achievement and  maintenance of  sufficient
occupancy  levels and adequate  rental income, employment  and income conditions
prevailing in local labor markets, increases  in taxes, utility costs and  other
operating  expenses, the managerial ability of project managers, changes in laws
and
 
                                      A-1
<PAGE>
governmental  regulations,  the  appropriation  of  subsidies,  and  social  and
economic  trends affecting  the localities  in which  the projects  are located.
Occupancy of such housing projects may be adversely affected by high rent levels
and income limitations imposed under Federal and state programs.
 
    SINGLE FAMILY MORTGAGE REVENUE BONDS.  Some  of the Bonds in a Trust may  be
single  family  mortgage revenue  bonds,  which are  issued  for the  purpose of
acquiring from originating financial institutions notes secured by mortgages  on
residences located within the issuer's boundaries and owned by persons of low or
moderate  income. Mortgage loans  are generally partially  or completely prepaid
prior to  their final  maturities as  a result  of events  such as  sale of  the
mortgaged  premises, default, condemnation or casualty loss. Because these bonds
are subject to extraordinary mandatory redemption in whole or in part from  such
prepayments of mortgage loans, a substantial portion of such bonds will probably
be  redeemed prior to their scheduled maturities or even prior to their ordinary
call dates. Extraordinary mandatory redemption without premium could also result
from the  failure of  the originating  financial institutions  to make  mortgage
loans in sufficient amounts within a specified time period. The redemption price
of  such issues  may be  more or  less than  the offering  price of  such bonds.
Additionally, unusually high rates of  default on the underlying mortgage  loans
may  reduce revenues available  for the payment  of principal of  or interest on
such mortgage revenue bonds. Single  family mortgage revenue bonds issued  after
December 31, 1980 were issued under Section 103A of the Internal Revenue Code of
1954,  as amended, or  Section 143 of  the Internal Revenue  Code of 1986, which
Sections contain certain  requirements relating to  the use of  the proceeds  of
such  bonds in  order for the  interest on  such bonds to  retain its tax-exempt
status. In each  case, the issuer  of the  bonds has covenanted  to comply  with
applicable  requirements and bond  counsel to such issuer  has issued an opinion
that the interest on the bonds is exempt from Federal income tax under  existing
laws   and  regulations.  There  can  be   no  assurance  that  such  continuing
requirements will  be satisfied;  the failure  to meet  such requirements  could
cause  interest on the Bonds to be  subject to Federal income taxation, possibly
from the date of issuance of the Bonds.
 
    FEDERALLY ENHANCED  OBLIGATIONS.   Some of  the mortgages  which secure  the
various  health care or housing projects which underlie the previously discussed
Health Facility, Housing,  and Single Family  Mortgage Revenue Obligations  (the
"Obligations")  in a Trust may be  insured by the Federal Housing Administration
("FHA"). Under FHA  regulations, the  maximum insurable  mortgage amount  cannot
exceed  90%  of the  FHA's  estimated value  of  the project.  The  FHA mortgage
insurance does not constitute a guarantee of timely payment of the principal  of
and  interest on the Obligations. Payment  of mortgage insurance benefits may be
(1) less than the principal amount of Obligations outstanding or (2) delayed  if
disputes  arise as to  the amount of the  payment or if  certain notices are not
given to the FHA within  the prescribed time periods.  In addition, some of  the
previously  discussed Obligations may be secured by mortgage-backed certificates
guaranteed by the  Government National Mortgage  Association ("GNMA"), a  wholly
owned  corporate  instrumentality  of  the  United  States,  and/or  the Federal
National  Mortgage  Association  ("Fannie   Mae")  a  federally  chartered   and
stockholder-owed  corporation. GNMA and  Fannie Mae guarantee  timely payment of
principal and  interest  on the  mortgage-backed  certificates, even  where  the
underlying   mortgage  payments   are  not  made.   While  such  mortgage-backed
certificates are often pledged  to secure payment of  principal and interest  on
the  Obligations, timely payment of interest and principal on the Obligations is
not insured or guaranteed by  the United States, GNMA,  Fannie Mae or any  other
governmental  agency or  instrumentality. The  GNMA mortgage-backed certificates
constitute a general obligation  of the United States  backed by its full  faith
and  credit. The obligations of Fannie  Mae, including its obligations under the
Fannie Mae mortgage-backed securities, are obligations
 
                                      A-2
<PAGE>
solely of Fannie Mae and are not backed  by, or entitled to, the full faith  and
credit of the United States.
 
    INDUSTRIAL  REVENUE OBLIGATIONS.   Certain  of the Bonds  in a  Trust may be
industrial revenue bonds  ("IRBs"), including pollution  control revenue  bonds,
which  are  tax-exempt  securities  issued  by  states,  municipalities,  public
authorities or similar entities to  finance the cost of acquiring,  constructing
or improving various industrial projects. These projects are usually operated by
corporate entities. Issuers are obligated only to pay amounts due on the IRBs to
the  extent that funds are available from the unexpended proceeds of the IRBs or
receipts or revenues of the issuer  under an arrangement between the issuer  and
the  corporate operator of  a project. The arrangement  may be in  the form of a
lease, installment sale agreement, conditional sale agreement or loan agreement,
but in each case  the payments to  the issuer are designed  to be sufficient  to
meet  the payments  of amounts  due on  the IRBs.  Regardless of  the structure,
payment of IRBs is solely dependent  upon the creditworthiness of the  corporate
operator  of  the project  and,  if applicable,  corporate  guarantor. Corporate
operators or  guarantors may  be affected  by  many factors  which may  have  an
adverse  impact on  the credit  quality of  the particular  company or industry.
These include cyclicality of revenues and earnings, regulatory and environmental
restrictions, litigation  resulting  from  accidents  or  environmentally-caused
illnesses,  extensive competition  and financial deterioration  resulting from a
corporate restructuring pursuant to a leveraged buy-out, takeover or  otherwise.
Such  a restructuring may  result in the  operator of a  project becoming highly
leveraged which may have an impact on such operator's creditworthiness which  in
turn  would have  an adverse impact  on the  rating and/or market  value of such
Bonds. Further, the  possibility of  such a  restructuring may  have an  adverse
impact  on the market for and consequently  the value of such Bonds, even though
no actual takeover or other action is ever contemplated or effected. The IRBs in
a Trust may be subject to  special or extraordinary redemption provisions  which
may  provide for redemption  at par or,  in the case  of original issue discount
bonds, accreted value. The  Sponsor cannot predict the  causes or likelihood  of
the redemption of IRBs in a Trust prior to the stated maturity of such Bonds.
 
    ELECTRIC  UTILITY  OBLIGATIONS.    Some  of the  Bonds  in  a  Trust  may be
obligations of issuers  whose revenues are  primarily derived from  the sale  of
electric  energy. The problems  faced by such issuers  include the difficulty in
obtaining approval for timely  and adequate rate  increases from the  applicable
public  utility  commissions,  the difficulty  of  financing  large construction
programs, increased competition,  reductions in estimates  of future demand  for
electricity  in certain areas of the  country, the limitations on operations and
increased costs  and delays  attributable to  environmental considerations,  the
difficulty  of the capital  market in absorbing utility  debt, the difficulty in
obtaining fuel at reasonable prices and  the effect of energy conservation.  All
of  such issuers  have been  experiencing certain  of these  problems in varying
degrees. In addition, Federal, state and municipal governmental authorities  may
from  time to time review existing, and impose additional, regulations governing
the licensing, construction  and operation  of nuclear power  plants, which  may
adversely  affect the ability of the issuers of  certain of the Bonds in a Trust
to make payments of principal and/or interest on such Bonds.
 
    TRANSPORTATION FACILITY REVENUE BONDS.  Some of the Bonds in a Trust may  be
obligations  of issuers which  are payable from and  secured by revenues derived
from the ownership and operation of airports, public transit systems and  ports.
The  major portion of  an airport's gross operating  income is generally derived
from fees received  from airlines pursuant  to use agreements  which consist  of
annual  payments for airport  use, occupancy of  certain terminal space, service
fees and  leases. Airport  operating income  may therefore  be affected  by  the
ability  of the airlines to meet their obligations under the use agreements. The
air transport industry  is experiencing significant  variations in earnings  and
 
                                      A-3
<PAGE>
traffic,  due  to  increased  competition,  excess  capacity,  increased  costs,
deregulation, traffic constraints  and other factors,  and several airlines  are
experiencing  severe financial difficulties. In  particular, facilities with use
agreements involving airlines experiencing financial difficulty may experience a
reduction in revenue  due to the  possible inability of  these airlines to  meet
their  use  agreement obligations  because  of such  financial  difficulties and
possible bankruptcy.  The  Sponsor cannot  predict  what effect  these  industry
conditions  may have on airport revenues which  are dependent for payment on the
financial condition of the  airlines and their usage  of the particular  airport
facility.  Bonds that are secured primarily by the revenue collected by a public
transit system  typically are  additionally secured  by a  pledge of  sales  tax
receipts  collected  at  the state  or  local  level, or  of  other governmental
financial assistance. Transit system net revenues will be affected by variations
in  utilization,  which  in  turn  may  be  affected  by  the  degree  of  local
governmental  subsidization, demographic and  population shifts, and competition
from other  forms of  transportation; and  by increased  costs, including  costs
resulting  from previous deferrals of maintenance. Port authorities derive their
revenues primarily from fees imposed on ships using the facilities. The rate  of
utilization  of such facilities may fluctuate depending on the local economy and
on competition from  competing forms  of transportation  such as  air, rail  and
trucks.
 
    WATER  AND/OR SEWERAGE  OBLIGATIONS.  Some  of the  Bonds in a  Trust may be
obligations of issuers whose revenues are derived from the sale of water  and/or
sewerage services. Such Bonds are generally payable from user fees. The problems
of  such  issuers  include  the  ability  to  obtain  timely  and  adequate rate
increases, population decline resulting in  decreased user fees, the  difficulty
of  financing  large construction  programs, the  limitations on  operations and
increased costs  and delays  attributable to  environmental considerations,  the
increasing  difficulty of obtaining or discovering  new supplies of fresh water,
the effect  of  conservation  programs  and the  impact  of  "no-growth"  zoning
ordinances. All of such issuers have been experiencing certain of these problems
in varying degrees.
 
    UNIVERSITY  AND COLLEGE REVENUE OBLIGATIONS.   Some of the  Bonds in a Trust
may be  obligations of  issuers which  are, or  which govern  the operation  of,
colleges  and universities and  whose revenues are  derived mainly from tuition,
dormitory revenues,  grants and  endowments. General  problems of  such  issuers
include  the prospect of a declining  percentage of the population consisting of
"college" age  individuals,  possible  inability  to  raise  tuitions  and  fees
sufficiently  to cover increased  operating costs, the  uncertainty of continued
receipt of  Federal grants  and  state funding,  and government  legislation  or
regulations  which may adversely  affect the revenues or  costs of such issuers.
All of such issuers have been experiencing certain of these problems in  varying
degrees.
 
    BRIDGE AUTHORITY AND TOLLROAD OBLIGATIONS.  Some of the Bonds in a Trust may
be  obligations  of issuers  which derive  their payments  from bridge,  road or
tunnel toll revenues. The revenues of such an issuer could be adversely affected
by competition from toll-free vehicular bridges and roads and alternative  modes
of transportation. Such revenues could also be adversely affected by a reduction
in  the availability of fuel to motorists  or significant increases in the costs
thereof. Specifically, governmental regulations restricting the use of  vehicles
in  the New  York City  metropolitan area may  adversely affect  revenues of the
Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority.
 
    DEDICATED-TAX SUPPORTED  BONDS.    Some of  the  Bonds  in a  Trust  may  be
obligations of issuers which are payable from and secured by tax revenues from a
designated  source, which revenues are pledged  to secure the bonds. The various
types of  Bonds described  below differ  in structure  and with  respect to  the
rights of the bondholders to the underlying property. Each type of dedicated-tax
supported  Bond has distinct risks, only some  of which are set forth below. One
type of dedicated-tax supported Bond is secured by the incremental tax  received
on   either  real   property  or   on  sales   within  a   specifically  defined
 
                                      A-4
<PAGE>
geographical area; such tax generally will  not provide bondholders with a  lien
on  the underlying property or revenues. Another type of dedicated-tax supported
Bond is  secured by  a special  tax levied  on real  property within  a  defined
geographical  area in such a manner that the  tax is levied on those who benefit
from the  project; such  bonds typically  provide for  a statutory  lien on  the
underlying  property for unpaid  taxes. A third  type of dedicated-tax supported
Bond may be secured by a tax levied upon the manufacture, sale or consumption of
commodities or upon the license to pursue certain occupations or upon  corporate
privileges  within a taxing jurisdiction. As to any of these types of Bonds, the
ability of  the  designated  revenues  to satisfy  the  interest  and  principal
payments  on such  bonds may be  affected by  changes in the  local economy, the
financial success of the  enterprise responsible for the  payment of the  taxes,
the  value of  any property on  which taxes may  be assessed and  the ability to
collect such  taxes in  a timely  fashion. Each  of these  factors will  have  a
different affect on each distinct type of dedicated-tax supported bonds.
 
    MUNICIPAL LEASE BONDS.  Some of the Bonds in a Trust may be obligations that
are  secured  by lease  payments  of a  governmental  entity. Such  payments are
normally subject to  annual budget  appropriations of  the leasing  governmental
entity.  A governmental  entity that enters  into such a  lease agreement cannot
obligate future  governments to  appropriate  for and  make lease  payments  but
covenants  to take such action as is necessary to include any lease payments due
in its budgets and to make the appropriations therefor. A governmental  entity's
failure to appropriate for and to make payments under its lease obligation could
result  in insufficient funds  available for payment  of the obligations secured
thereby.
 
    ORIGINAL ISSUE  DISCOUNT BONDS  AND STRIPPED  OBLIGATIONS.   Certain of  the
Bonds  in a Trust may be original  issue discount bonds. These Bonds were issued
with nominal  interest rates  less than  the rates  then offered  by  comparable
securities  and as a consequence  were originally sold at  a discount from their
face, or par, values. This original  issue discount, the difference between  the
initial  purchase price and face value, is deemed under current law to accrue on
a daily basis and the accrued  portion is treated as tax-exempt interest  income
for  federal income tax purposes. On sale  or redemption, gain, if any, realized
in excess of the earned  portion of original issue  discount will be taxable  as
capital  gain. See "What is the Tax Status of Unitholders". The current value of
an original issue discount bond reflects the present value of its face amount at
maturity. In a stable interest rate environment, the market value of an original
issue discount bond would  tend to increase  more slowly in  early years and  in
greater increments as the bond approached maturity.
 
    Certain  of the original issue discount bonds  in a Trust may be zero coupon
bonds. Zero coupon bonds do not provide for the payment of any current interest;
the buyer receives only the right to receive a final payment of the face  amount
of  the bond at its maturity. The effect of  owning a zero coupon bond is that a
fixed yield is earned not only on  the original investment but also, in  effect,
on  all  discount  earned  during  the life  of  the  obligation.  This implicit
reinvestment of earnings at the same rate eliminates the risk of being unable to
reinvest the income on such obligation at a rate as high as the implicit  yield,
but  at the same time also eliminates the holder's ability to reinvest at higher
rates in  the  future.  For  this  reason, zero  coupon  bonds  are  subject  to
substantially  greater  price  fluctuations during  periods  of  changing market
interest rates  than are  securities  of comparable  quality that  pay  interest
currently.
 
    Original  issue discount bonds, including zero  coupon bonds, may be subject
to redemption at prices  based on the  issue price plus  the amount of  original
issue   discount  accreted  to  redemption   (the  "accreted  value")  plus,  if
applicable, some premium.  Pursuant to  such call provisions  an original  issue
discount  bond may be called prior to its maturity date at a price less than its
face value. See the  "Schedules of Investments" for  more information about  the
call provisions of portfolio Bonds.
 
                                      A-5

    Certain of the Bonds in a Trust may be Stripped Obligations, which represent
evidences  of ownership  with respect  to either  the principal  amount of  or a
payment of interest on a tax-exempt  obligation. An obligation is "stripped"  by
depositing  it with  a custodian, which  then effects a  separation in ownership
between the bond and any interest payment which has not yet become payable,  and
issues evidences of ownership with respect to such constituent parts. A Stripped
Obligation  therefore has economic characteristics similar to zero coupon bonds,
as described above.
 
    Each Stripped Obligation has  been purchased at a  discount from the  amount
payable  at maturity. With respect to each Unitholder, the Internal Revenue Code
treats as "original issue discount" that portion of the discount which  produces
a yield to maturity (as of the date of purchase of the Unitholder's Units) equal
to  the lower of the coupon rate of interest on the underlying obligation or the
yield to maturity on the basis of  the purchase price of the Unitholder's  Units
which  is allocable to  each Stripped Obligation.  Original issue discount which
accrues with respect to a Stripped Obligation will be exempt from Federal income
taxation to the  same extent  as interest  on the  underlying obligations.  (See
Section 11, " What Is The Tax Status of Unitholders".)
 
    Unitholders  should consult their own tax advisers with respect to the state
and local tax consequences of owning  original issue discount bonds or  Stripped
Obligations.  Under applicable  provisions governing determination  of state and
local taxes, interest on original  issue discount bonds or Stripped  Obligations
may  be deemed to  be received in  the year of  accrual even though  there is no
corresponding cash payment.
 
4.  COMPOSITION OF TRUSTS
 
Each Trust initially consists  of delivery statements  relating to contracts  to
purchase Bonds (or of such Bonds) as are listed under "Schedules of Investments"
and,  thereafter, of  such Bonds as  may continue to  be held from  time to time
(including certain securities deposited in  the Trust in substitution for  Bonds
not delivered to the Trust or in exchange or substitution for Bonds upon certain
refundings),  together  with  accrued  and  undistributed  interest  thereon and
undistributed cash realized from the disposition of Bonds.
 
    "WHEN-ISSUED"  AND  "DELAYED  DELIVERY"  TRANSACTIONS.    The  contracts  to
purchase  Bonds delivered to  the Trustee represent an  obligation by issuers or
dealers to deliver  Bonds to the  Sponsor for deposit  in the Trusts.  Normally,
"regular  way"  contracts are  settled and  the Bonds  delivered to  the Trustee
within a relatively  short period  of time.  However, certain  of the  contracts
relate  to Bonds which have not been issued  as of the Date of Deposit and which
are commonly referred to  as "when issued"  or "when, as  and if issued"  Bonds.
Although  the Sponsor does not believe it is  likely, one or more of the issuers
of such Bonds might decide not to proceed with such offerings. If such Bonds, or
replacement bonds  described below,  are not  acquired by  a Trust  or if  their
delivery  is  delayed, the  Estimated Current  Returns  and Estimated  Long Term
Returns shown herein may be reduced.  Certain of the contracts for the  purchase
of  Bonds provide for delivery dates after  the date of settlement for purchases
made on  the  Date of  Deposit.  Interest on  such  "when issued"  and  "delayed
delivery"  Bonds accrues to the benefit of Unitholders commencing with the first
settlement date for the Units. However,  in the opinion of counsel,  Unitholders
who  purchase their Units prior to the date such Bonds are actually delivered to
the Trustee must reduce the  tax basis of their  Units for interest accruing  on
such  Bonds during the interval between their purchase of Units and the delivery
of the Bonds because such amounts constitute a return of principal. As a  result
of  such adjustment, the  Estimated Current Returns set  forth herein (which are
based on the Public Offering Price as of  the business day prior to the Date  of
Deposit)  may be  slightly lower than  Unitholders will receive  after the first
year, assuming the Portfolio does not change
 
                                      A-6
<PAGE>
and estimated annual expense does not vary from that set forth under  "Essential
Information  Regarding the  Trusts." Those  Bonds in  each Trust  purchased with
delivery dates after the date  of settlement for purchases  made on the Date  of
Deposit are so noted in the Schedules of Investments.
 
    LIMITED  REPLACEMENT OF CERTAIN BONDS.   Neither the Sponsor nor the Trustee
shall be liable in any  way for any default, failure  or defect in any Bond.  In
the  event of a failure to deliver any  Bond that has been purchased for a Trust
under a contract, including those  Bonds purchased on a  when, as and if  issued
basis  ("Failed Bonds"), the Sponsor is authorized under the Indenture to direct
the Trustee to acquire  other specified Bonds ("Replacement  Bonds") to make  up
the original corpus of the Trust. The Replacement Bonds must be purchased within
20  days after  delivery of notice  of the failed  contract and the  cost to the
Trust (exclusive  of  accrued interest)  may  not  exceed the  amount  of  funds
reserved  for the purchase of  the Failed Bonds. The  Replacement Bonds (i) must
satisfy the criteria previously described  for Bonds originally included in  the
Trust  and, with respect  to Bonds purchased  for a State  Trust, shall have the
benefit of an exemption from state taxation of interest to an extent equal to or
greater than that of  the Bonds they  replace, (ii) must  have a fixed  maturity
date  after the date of purchase of not  less than approximately 15 years in the
case of National or State Trusts, approximately  11 years in the case of a  Long
Intermediate  Trust, approximately 5 years in  the case of Intermediate or State
Intermediate Trusts, approximately 3 years in  the case of a Short  Intermediate
Trust  and approximately 1 year in the case of a Short Term Trust, but not later
than the maturity date of the Failed Bonds, (iii) must be acquired at a cost  to
the  Trust equal to the  cost of the same principal  amount of Bonds provided in
the failed contract and  have a current  return and yield  to maturity not  less
than the current return and yield to maturity of the Failed Bonds and (iv) shall
not  be "when,  as and if  issued" Bonds.  Whenever a Replacement  Bond has been
acquired for a  Trust, the Trustee  shall, within five  days after the  delivery
thereof,  mail or deliver a  notice to all Unitholders  of the Trust involved of
such acquisition. Once the original corpus of the Trust is acquired, the Trustee
will have no power  to vary the  investment of the Trust;  i.e., the Trust  will
have  no managerial  power to  take advantage of  market variation  to improve a
Unitholder's investment.
 
    To the extent the right of  limited substitution described in the  preceding
paragraph  shall not  be utilized  to acquire  Replacement Bonds  for the entire
principal amount of Failed Bonds, the Sponsor shall refund to all Unitholders of
the Trust  involved the  sales  charge attributable  to  such Failed  Bonds  not
replaced,  and the  principal and  accrued interest  attributable to  such Bonds
shall be  distributed not  more than  30 days  after the  determination of  such
failure  or at such earlier time as the  Trustee in its sole discretion deems to
be in  the  interest of  the  Unitholders. Any  such  accrued interest  paid  to
Unitholders will be paid by the Sponsor and, accordingly, will not be treated as
tax-exempt  income. In the event Failed Bonds  in a Trust could not be replaced,
the Net Annual Interest Income per Unit for such Trust would be reduced and  the
Estimated Current Return thereon might be lowered.
 
    SALE,  MATURITY AND REDEMPTION OF BONDS.  Certain of the Bonds may from time
to time  under certain  circumstances be  sold  or redeemed  or will  mature  in
accordance  with their terms. The proceeds from  such events will be used to pay
for  Units  redeemed   or  distributed  to   Unitholders  and  not   reinvested;
accordingly,  no assurance can be given that  a Trust will retain for any length
of time its present size and composition.
 
    All of the Bonds in  each Trust are subject to  being called or redeemed  in
whole  or in  part prior  to their  stated maturities  pursuant to  the optional
redemption provisions described in  the "Schedules of  Investments" and in  most
cases  pursuant to sinking fund, special or extraordinary redemption provisions.
A bond  subject to  optional  call is  one which  is  subject to  redemption  or
refunding    prior   to   maturity   at   the    option   of   the   issuer.   A
 
                                      A-7
<PAGE>
refunding is a method by which a bond issue is redeemed, at or before  maturity,
by  the proceeds of a new bond issue.  A bond subject to sinking fund redemption
is one  which  is  subject to  partial  call  from  time to  time  from  a  fund
accumulated  for the  scheduled retirement  of a  portion of  an issue  prior to
maturity.  Special  or  extraordinary  redemption  provisions  may  provide  for
redemption  of  all or  a portion  of an  issue upon  the occurrence  of certain
circumstances related  to defaults  or unanticipated  changes in  circumstances.
Events  that may  permit or require  the special or  extraordinary redemption of
bonds include, among others: substantial damage to or destruction of the project
for which the proceeds  of the bonds  were used; exercise by  a local, state  or
federal  governmental  unit  of its  power  of  eminent domain  to  take  all or
substantially all of the project for which the proceeds of the bonds were  used;
a  final determination that the interest on the bonds is taxable; changes in the
economic availability  of raw  materials, operating  supplies or  facilities  or
technological  or other  changes which render  the operation of  the project for
which the proceeds of  the bonds were  used uneconomical; changes  in law or  an
administrative  or judicial decree which render the performance of the agreement
under which the proceeds of the bonds were made available to finance the project
impossible or  which  create  unreasonable burdens  or  which  impose  excessive
liabilities,  such as taxes, not imposed on the date the bonds are issued on the
issuer of the bonds or the user of the proceeds of the bonds; an  administrative
or  judicial decree which  requires the cessation  of a substantial  part of the
operations  of  the  project  financed  with  the  proceeds  of  the  bonds;  an
overestimate of the costs of the project to be financed with the proceeds of the
bonds  resulting in excess proceeds which may  be applied to redeem bonds; or an
underestimate of a source of funds securing the bonds resulting in excess  funds
which  may be applied to  redeem bonds. The Sponsor is  unable to predict all of
the circumstances which may result in such redemption of an issue of Bonds.  See
the  discussion of the various  types of bond issues,  above, for information on
the call provisions of such  bonds, particularly single family mortgage  revenue
bonds.
 
    The exercise of redemption or call provisions will (except to the extent the
proceeds of the called Bonds are used to pay for Unit redemptions) result in the
distribution  of  principal and  may  result in  a  reduction in  the  amount of
subsequent interest  distributions; it  may also  affect the  current return  on
Units  of the Trust involved. Redemption pursuant to optional call provisions is
more likely to  occur, and  redemption pursuant to  sinking fund  or special  or
extraordinary  redemption provisions may occur, when  the Bonds have an offering
side evaluation  which represents  a premium  over par.  Redemption pursuant  to
optional  call provisions  may be,  and redemption  pursuant to  sinking fund or
special or extraordinary redemption provisions is likely to be, at a price equal
to the par value of the bonds without any premium (in the case of original issue
discount bonds, such redemption is generally to be made at the issue price  plus
the  amount of original issue discount accreted  to the date of redemption; such
price is referred to  herein as "accreted value").  Because Bonds may have  been
valued  at prices above or below par value or the then current accreted value at
the time Units  were purchased, Unitholders  may realize gain  or loss upon  the
redemption  of portfolio Bonds.  (See Sections 11  and 13 and  the "Schedules of
Investments.")
 
    CERTAIN TAX  MATTERS;  LITIGATION.   Certain  of  the Bonds  in  each  Trust
portfolio  may be subject to  continuing requirements such as  the actual use of
bond proceeds, manner of operation of the project financed from bond proceeds or
rebate of excess  earnings on  bond proceeds that  may affect  the exemption  of
interest  on such Bonds  from Federal income  taxation. Although at  the time of
issuance of each  of the  Bonds in  each Trust an  opinion of  bond counsel  was
rendered as to the exemption of interest on such obligations from Federal income
taxation,  and the issuers covenanted to  comply with all requirements necessary
to retain the tax-exempt status of the Bonds, there can be no assurance that the
 
                                      A-8
<PAGE>
respective issuers  or  other obligors  on  such obligations  will  fulfill  the
various  continuing  requirements  established  upon issuance  of  the  Bonds. A
failure to comply with such requirements may cause a determination that interest
on such  obligations  is  subject  to  Federal  income  taxation,  perhaps  even
retroactively  from the  date of  issuance of  such Bonds,  thereby reducing the
value of the Bonds and subjecting Unitholders to unanticipated tax liabilities.
 
    To the best knowledge of the Sponsor,  there is no litigation pending as  of
the  Date of Deposit in respect of  any Bonds which might reasonably be expected
to have a  material adverse effect  on any of  the Trusts. It  is possible  that
after  the Date of Deposit, litigation may be initiated with respect to Bonds in
any Trust. Any  such litigation may  affect the  validity of such  Bonds or  the
tax-exempt  nature of the interest thereon,  but while the outcome of litigation
of such nature can never be entirely predicted, the opinions of bond counsel  to
the  issuer of  each Bond  on the date  of issuance  state that  such Bonds were
validly issued and that the interest thereon is, to the extent indicated, exempt
from Federal income tax.
 
5.  WHY AND HOW ARE THE BONDS INSURED?
 
INSURANCE ON BONDS IN INSURED TRUSTS
 
Insurance guaranteeing  the  timely payment,  when  due, of  all  principal  and
interest  on the Bonds in each Insured Trust has been obtained by the Sponsor or
by the  issuers or  underwriters  of Bonds  from  the Municipal  Bond  Investors
Assurance  Corporation (the "Insurer"). Some of  the Bonds in each Insured Trust
may be covered by a policy or  policies of insurance obtained by the issuers  or
underwriters  of  the  Bonds  from  Municipal  Bond  Insurance  Association (the
"Association") or Bond Investors Guaranty Insurance Company ("BIG"). The Insurer
has issued a policy or policies of  insurance covering each of the Bonds in  the
Insured Trusts, each policy to remain in force until the payment in full of such
Bonds  and whether or not the Bonds continue  to be held by an Insured Trust. By
the terms  of each  policy the  Insurer will  unconditionally guarantee  to  the
holders  or owners of the Bonds the payment, when due, required of the issuer of
the Bonds of an amount  equal to the principal of  and interest on the Bonds  as
such  payments shall become due but not be paid (except that in the event of any
acceleration of the  due date of  principal by reason  of mandatory or  optional
redemption,  default or otherwise, the payments  guaranteed will be made in such
amounts and  at  such times  as  would  have been  due  had there  not  been  an
acceleration).  The  Insurer will  be responsible  for  such payments,  less any
amounts received by the holders or owners of the Bonds from any trustee for  the
bond  issuers or from  any other sources  other than the  Insurer. The Insurer's
policies relating to  small industrial development  bonds and pollution  control
revenue  bonds also guarantee the full and complete payments required to be made
by or on behalf  of an issuer  of Bonds pursuant  to the terms  of the Bonds  if
there  occurs an event which results in the loss of the tax-exempt status of the
interest on such Bonds,  including principal, interest  or premium payments,  if
any,  as and when thereby required. The Insurer has indicated that its insurance
policies do not insure the payment of  principal or interest on bonds which  are
not required to be paid by the issuer thereof because the bonds were not validly
issued;  as  indicated  under  "What  is the  Tax  Status  of  Unitholders?" the
respective issuing authorities have received  opinions of bond counsel  relating
to  the valid issuance of each of the Bonds in the Insured Trusts. The Insurer's
policy also does not insure against  non-payment of principal of or interest  on
the Bonds resulting from the insolvency, negligence or any other act or omission
of the trustee or other paying agent for the Bonds. The policy is not covered by
the  Property/ Casualty Insurance  Security Fund specified in  Article 76 of the
New York  Insurance Law.  The  policies are  non-cancellable and  the  insurance
premiums have been fully paid on or
 
                                      A-9
<PAGE>
prior  to the Date  of Deposit, either by  the Sponsor or, if  a policy has been
obtained by a Bond issuer, by such issuer.
 
    Upon notification from  the trustee  for any bond  issuer or  any holder  or
owner of the Bonds or coupons that such trustee or paying agent has insufficient
funds  to pay any  principal or interest in  full when due,  the Insurer will be
obligated to deposit funds  promptly with State Street  Bank and Trust  Company,
N.A.,  New York, New York, as fiscal  agent for the Insurer, sufficient to fully
cover the deficit. If notice of nonpayment is received on or after the due date,
the Insurer will provide for payment  within one business day following  receipt
of  the notice. Upon payment  by the Insurer of  any Bonds, coupons, or interest
payments, the Insurer shall succeed  to the rights of  the owner of such  Bonds,
coupons or interest payments with respect thereto.
 
    The  Insurer is the principal operating subsidiary of MBIA, Inc., a New York
Stock Exchange listed company. MBIA, Inc. is  not obligated to pay the debts  of
or  claims against the  Insurer. The Insurer is  a limited liability corporation
rather than a  several liability association.  The Insurer is  domiciled in  the
State  of New York and licensed to do business in all 50 states, the District of
Columbia and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.
 
    As of December  31, 1992  the Insurer had  admitted assets  of $2.6  billion
(audited),  total liabilities of  $1.7 billion (audited),  and total capital and
surplus of  $896  million  (audited) determined  in  accordance  with  statutory
accounting   practices   prescribed   or  permitted   by   insurance  regulatory
authorities. As of December  31, 1993, the Insurer  had admitted assets of  $3.1
billion  (unaudited), total liabilities  of $2.1 billion  (unaudited), and total
capital and surplus of  $978 million (unaudited)  determined in accordance  with
statutory  accounting practices prescribed or  permitted by insurance regulatory
authorities. Copies of the Insurer's  year end financial statements prepared  in
accordance  with statutory accounting practices  are available from the Insurer.
The address of the Insurer is 113 King Street, Armonk, New York 10504.
 
    Effective December 31, 1989, MBIA  Inc. acquired Bond Investors Group,  Inc.
On  January 5, 1990, the  Insurer acquired all of  the outstanding stock of Bond
Investors Group, Inc., the parent of BIG,  now known as MBIA Insurance Corp.  of
Illinois.  Through a reinsurance agreement, BIG has ceded all of its net insured
risks, as well as its unearned premium and contingency reserves, to the  Insurer
and the Insurer has reinsured BIG's net outstanding exposure.
 
    Each  insurance company comprising the Association will be severally and not
jointly obligated  under  the Association  policy  in the  following  respective
percentages:  The  AEtna  Casualty  and  Surety  Company,  33%;  Fireman's  Fund
Insurance Company, 30%;  The Travelers Indemnity  Company, 15%; AEtna  Insurance
Company  (now  known  as CIGNA  Property  and  Casualty Company),  12%;  and The
Continental Insurance Company, 10%.  As a several  obligor, each such  insurance
company  will be  obligated only to  the extent  of its percentage  of any claim
under the  Association  policy and  will  not be  obligated  to pay  any  unpaid
obligation  of any  other member  of the  Association. Each  insurance company's
participation is backed by all of its assets. However, each insurance company is
a multiline insurer involved in several lines of insurance other than  municipal
bond  insurance, and the assets of each insurance company also secure all of its
other insurance policy and surety bond obligations.
 
    The following table sets forth certain unaudited financial information  with
respect  to  the  five  insurance  companies  comprising  the  Association.  The
statistics, which have been furnished by the Association, are as reported by the
insurance  companies  to  the  New  York  State  Insurance  Department  and  are
determined in accordance with statutory accounting principles. No representation
is    made    herein    as   to    the    accuracy   or    adequacy    of   such

information or as to the absence of material adverse changes in such information
subsequent to  the date  thereof.  In addition,  these  numbers are  subject  to
revision  by the  New York State  Insurance Department which,  if revised, could
either increase or decrease the amounts.

    The Moody's  Investors Service  rating of  the Insurer  should be  evaluated
independently  of the  Standard & Poor's  Corporation rating of  the Insurer. No
application has  been  made  to any  other  rating  agency in  order  to  obtain
additional  ratings  on the  Bonds. The  ratings  reflect the  respective rating

    The  above ratings are not  recommendations to buy, sell  or hold the Bonds,
and such ratings may  be subject to  revision or withdrawal at  any time by  the
rating  agencies. Any downward revision or  withdrawal of either or both ratings
may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Bonds.
 
    Because the insurance on the  Bonds will be effective  so long as the  Bonds
are  outstanding, such insurance  will be taken into  account in determining the
market value of
 
                                      A-11
<PAGE>
the Bonds  and therefore  some  value attributable  to  such insurance  will  be
included  in the value  of the Units  of the Insured  Trusts. The insurance does
not, however, guarantee the market value of the Bonds or of the Units.
 
INSURANCE ON CERTAIN BONDS IN TRADITIONAL TRUSTS
 
    Insurance guaranteeing the timely  payment, when due,  of all principal  and
interest  on certain Bonds in a Traditional  Trust may have been obtained by the
Sponsor, issuer or underwriter  of the particular Bonds  involved or by  another
party.  Such insurance, which  provides coverage substantially  the same as that
obtained with  respect  to  Bonds  in Insured  Trusts  as  described  above,  is
effective  so long as the insured Bond is outstanding and the insurer remains in
business. Insurance relates  only to the  particular Bond and  not to the  Units
offered hereby or to their market value. Insured Bonds have received a rating of
"Aaa"  by  Moody's Investors  Service, Inc.  and/or "AAA"  by Standard  & Poor's
Corporation in recognition of such insurance.
 
    If a Bond  in a Traditional  Trust is insured,  the Schedule of  Investments
will identify the insurer. Such insurance will be provided by Financial Guaranty
Insurance   Company  ("FGIC"),  AMBAC   Indemnity  Corporation  ("AMBAC"),  Bond
Investors Guaranty  Insurance  Company, now  known  as MBIA  Corp.  of  Illinois
("BIG"),   Capital  Guaranty  Insurance  Company  ("CGIC"),  Financial  Security
Assurance,   Inc.   ("FSA"),   Municipal   Bond   Insurance   Association   (the
"Association"),  Municipal  Bond  Investors  Assurance  Corporation  ("MBIA") or
Connie Lee Insurance Company  ("ConnieLee"). The Sponsor  to date has  purchased
and  presently intends  to purchase  insurance for  Bonds in  Traditional Trusts
exclusively from MBIA (see the  preceding disclosure regarding MBIA). There  can
be  no assurance  that any insurer  listed therein  will be able  to satisfy its
commitments in the  event claims  are made in  the future.  However, Standard  &
Poor's  Corporation has rated  the claims-paying ability  of each insurer "AAA,"
and Moody's Investors Service has rated all bonds insured by each such  insurer,
except  ConnieLee, "Aaa." Moody's Investor's Service  gives no ratings for bonds
insured by ConnieLee.
 
    Because any such insurance  will be effective so  long as the insured  Bonds
are  outstanding, such insurance  will be taken into  account in determining the
market value  of  such Bonds  and  therefore  some value  attributable  to  such
insurance  will be included in the value of the Units of the Trust that includes
such Bonds. The insurance does not,  however, guarantee the market value of  the
Bonds or of the Units.
 
6.  HOW IS THE PUBLIC OFFERING PRICE DETERMINED?
 
The  Public Offering Price of the Units of  each Trust is equal to the Trustee's
determination of the aggregate  OFFERING prices of  the Bonds deposited  therein
(minus  any  advancement to  the  principal account  of  the Trust  made  by the
Trustee) plus a sales charge of 5.152% of such value in the case of National and
State Trusts, 4.439%  of such  value in the  case of  Long Intermediate  Trusts,
4.058% of such value in the case of Intermediate Trusts, 3.093% of such value in
the  case of Short Intermediate  Trusts and 2.564% of such  value in the case of
Short Term Trusts, in  each case adding  to the total thereof  cash held by  the
Trust,  if  any,  and  dividing the  sum  so  obtained by  the  number  of Units
outstanding in the Trust. This computation produces a gross underwriting  profit
equal  to 4.90% of the  Public Offering Price in the  case of National and State
Trusts, 4.25% of  the Public  Offering Price in  the case  of Long  Intermediate
Trusts,  3.90% of the Public Offering Price  in the case of Intermediate Trusts,
3.00% of the Public Offering Price in the case of Short Intermediate Trusts  and
2.50% of the Public Offering Price in the case of Short Term Trusts.
 
    The  sales charge applicable to quantity purchases is reduced on a graduated
scale for sales to any purchaser of at least $100,000 or 1,000 Units and will be
applied on whichever
 
                                      A-12

basis is  more favorable  to the  purchaser. Sales  charges during  the  primary
offering period are as follows:

 *The  breakpoint sales  charge is  also applied on  a dollar  basis utilizing a
  breakpoint equivalent in the above table of $100,000 to 1,000 Units,  $250,000
  to 2,500 Units etc.
 
    For  "secondary market"  sales the  Public Offering  Price per  Unit of each
Trust is determined by adding to the Trustee's determination of the BID price of
each Bond in the Trust  a sales charge determined  in accordance with the  table
set forth below based upon the number of years remaining to the maturity of each
such  Bond, adjusting  the total to  reflect the amount  of any cash  held in or
advanced to the principal account  of the Trust and  dividing the result by  the
number  of Units then outstanding. For  purposes of this calculation, Bonds will
be deemed to mature on  their stated maturity dates  unless: (a) the Bonds  have
been  called for redemption or funds or securities have been placed in escrow to
redeem them on  an earlier  call date,  in which case  such call  date shall  be
deemed to be the date upon which they mature; or (b) such Bonds are subject to a
"mandatory put," in which case such mandatory put date shall be deemed to be the
date upon which they mature.
 
    Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Trustee may terminate a Trust if
the  net asset value of  such Trust, as shown  by any semi-annual evaluation, is
less than 20% of the  original principal amount of the  Trust. In the course  of
regularly  appraising the value of Bonds in each Trust, the Sponsor will attempt
to estimate the  date on which  a Trust's value  will fall below  the 20%  level
based  on anticipated bond events over a five year period, including maturities,
escrow calls and current calls or refundings, assuming certain market rates. The
Sponsor intends from time to time to recommend that certain Trusts whose  values
have  fallen or are anticipated to fall  below the 20% level be terminated based
on certain criteria  which could adversely  affect the Trust's  diversification.
Once  the Sponsor has determined that a Trust's  value has or may fall below the
20% level within a five-year period, for purposes of computing the sales  charge
using the table set forth below, the maturity of each bond in such Trust will be
deemed  to be the earlier of the estimated termination date of the Trust, or the
actual date used  when pricing  the bond under  Municipal Securities  Rulemaking
Board rules and interpretations issued thereunder.
 
    The effect of this method of sales charge calculation will be that different
sales  charge rates will  be applied to  the various Bonds  in a Trust portfolio
based upon  the maturities  of  such Bonds,  in  accordance with  the  following
schedule. As shown, the sales charge on
 
                                      A-13

Bonds  in each maturity range  (and therefore the aggregate  sales charge on the
purchase) is reduced  with respect to  purchases of at  least $100,000 or  1,000
Units:

 *Breakpoint  sales charges are computed both on a dollar basis and on the basis
  of the  number of  Units purchased,  using the  equivalent of  1,000 Units  to
  $100,000,  2,500 Units to  $250,000, etc., and  will be applied  on that basis
  which is more favorable to the purchaser.
 
    The secondary market sales charges above  are expressed as a percent of  the
net  amount invested; expressed as  a percent of the  Public Offering Price, the
maximum sales charge on  any Trust, including one  consisting entirely of  Bonds
with  16 years  or more to  maturity, would be  5.50% (5.820% of  the net amount
invested). For purposes of illustration, the sales charge on a Trust  consisting
entirely  of Bonds maturing  in 13 to  16 years would  be 5% (5.263%  of the net
amount invested); that on a Trust consisting entirely of Bonds maturing in  five
to  seven years would be 3.5% (3.627% of the net amount invested); and that on a
Trust consisting entirely of Bonds maturing in three to four years would be 2.5%
(2.564% of the net  amount invested). The actual  secondary market sales  charge
included in the Public Offering Price of any particular Trust will depend on the
maturities of the Bonds in the portfolio of such Trust.
 
    At  all  times while  Units are  being  offered for  sale, the  Sponsor will
appraise or cause to  be appraised daily  the value of  the underlying Bonds  in
each  Trust as of 4:00 p.m. eastern time on each day on which the New York Stock
Exchange (the "Exchange") is normally open  and will adjust the Public  Offering
Price  of the Units commensurate with such appraisal. Such Public Offering Price
will be effective for all orders received by a dealer or the Sponsor at or prior
to 4:00 p.m. eastern time on each such day. Orders received after that time,  or
on a day when the Exchange is closed for a scheduled holiday or weekend, will be
held until the next determination of price.
 
    As  more fully set forth  in Section 8, accrued  interest from the preceding
Record Date to, but not including, the settlement date of the transaction  (five
business  days after  purchase) will  be added to  the Public  Offering Price to
determine the purchase price of Units.
 
    The above graduated  sales charges  will apply  on all  purchases of  Nuveen
investment  company  securities on  any one  day  by the  same purchaser  in the
amounts stated, and for this purpose purchases of this Series will be aggregated
with concurrent  purchases of  any other  Series or  of shares  of any  open-end
management  investment company of which the Sponsor is principal underwriter and
with respect to the purchase of which a sales charge is imposed.
 
    Purchases by or for the account of  an individual and his or her spouse  and
children  under 21 years of  age will be aggregated  to determine the applicable
sales charge. The graduated  sales charges are also  applicable to a trustee  or
other  fiduciary  purchasing  securities for  a  single trust  estate  or single
fiduciary account.
 
                                      A-14

    Units may be purchased at the  public offering price without a sales  charge
by officers or directors and by bona fide, full-time employees of Nuveen, Nuveen
Advisory Corp., Nuveen Institutional Advisory Corp. and The John Nuveen Company,
including  in each case these individuals and their immediate family members (as
defined above).
 
    The initial or primary Public Offering Price  of the Units in each Trust  is
based upon a pro rata share of the OFFERING prices per Unit of the Bonds in such
Trust  plus the  applicable sales charge.  The secondary  market Public Offering
Price of each Trust is based upon a pro rata share of the BID prices per Unit of
the Bonds in such Trust plus the applicable sales charge. The OFFERING prices of
Bonds in a Trust may be expected to average approximately 1% to 2% more than the
BID prices of such Bonds  in the case of  National, Long Intermediate and  State
Trusts,  3/4%  to 1  1/2% in  the  case of  Intermediate and  Short Intermediate
Trusts, and  1/2% to  3/4% in  the case  of Short  Term Trusts.  The  difference
between the bid side evaluation and the offering side evaluation of the Bonds in
each  Trust on the  business day prior  to the Date  of Deposit is  shown in the
discussion of each Trust portfolio.
 
    Whether or not Units are being offered for sale, the Sponsor will  determine
the aggregate value of each Trust as of 4:00 p.m. eastern time: (i) on each June
30 or December 31 (or, if such date is not a business day, the last business day
prior  thereto), (ii) on any day on which  a Unit is tendered for redemption (or
the next succeeding business day  if the date of  tender is a non-business  day)
and (iii) at such other times as may be necessary. For this purpose, a "business
day" shall be any day on which the Exchange is normally open. (See Section 16.)
 
7.  MARKET FOR UNITS
 
During  the  initial public  offering period,  the Sponsor  intends to  offer to
purchase Units of each  Trust at a  price equivalent to the  pro rata share  per
Unit  of the OFFERING prices of the Bonds in such Trust (plus accrued interest).
Afterward, although  it  is not  obligated  to do  so,  the Sponsor  intends  to
maintain  a secondary  market for  Units of  each Trust  at its  own expense and
continuously to offer  to purchase  Units of each  Trust at  prices, subject  to
change  at  any time,  which  are based  upon  the BID  prices  of Bonds  in the
respective portfolios of the Trusts. If the supply of Units of any of the Trusts
of this Series exceeds  demand, or for some  other business reason, the  Sponsor
may discontinue purchases of Units of such Trust at such prices. UNITHOLDERS WHO
WISH  TO DISPOSE OF THEIR UNITS SHOULD INQUIRE OF THE TRUSTEE OR THEIR BROKER AS
TO THE  CURRENT  REDEMPTION PRICE  (SEE  SECTION  19). In  connection  with  its
secondary  marketmaking activities, the Sponsor may from time to time enter into
secondary market  joint  account  agreements with  other  brokers  and  dealers.
Pursuant to such an agreement the Sponsor will purchase Units from the broker or
dealer at the bid price and will place the Units into a joint account managed by
the  Sponsor; sales from  the account will  be made in  accordance with the then
current prospectus and the Sponsor and  the broker or dealer will share  profits
and  losses in  the joint account  in accordance  with the terms  of their joint
account agreement.
 
    Certificates, if any, for Units are  delivered to the purchaser as  promptly
after  the date of settlement (five business days after purchase) as the Trustee
can complete the mechanics of registration. Normally, Certificates, if any,  are
mailed  by  the  Trustee within  48  hours after  registration  instructions are
received. Purchasers of Units to whom Certificates are issued will be unable  to
exercise  any right of redemption until they have received their Certificates as
tender of the Certificate, properly endorsed for transfer. (See Section 19.)
 
    Each Unit  of each  respective Trust  initially offered  by this  Prospectus
represents  that fractional  undivided interest  in such  Trust as  is set forth
under "Essential Information Regarding the Trusts." To the extent that any Units
of any Trust are  redeemed by the  Trustee, the aggregate  value of the  Trust's
assets will decrease by the amount paid to the
 
                                      A-15
<PAGE>
redeeming  Unitholder, but the fractional  undivided interest of each unredeemed
Unit in such Trust  will increase proportionately.  The Sponsor will  initially,
and from time to time thereafter, hold Units in connection with their offering.
 
8.  WHAT IS ACCRUED INTEREST?
 
Accrued  interest is the accumulation of unpaid interest on a bond from the last
day on which  interest thereon  was paid.  Interest on  Bonds in  each Trust  is
accounted  for daily on an accrual basis. For this reason, the purchase price of
Units of a Trust will  include not only the Public  Offering Price but also  the
proportionate  share of  accrued interest  to the  date of  settlement. Interest
accrues to the  benefit of Unitholders  commencing with the  settlement date  of
their purchase transaction.
 
    Accrued interest does not include accrual of original issue discount on zero
coupon  bonds, Stripped Obligations or other original issue discount bonds. (See
"Summary of Portfolios--General Trust Information"  and "What Is The Tax  Status
of Unitholders.")
 
    In  an effort to reduce the amount  of accrued interest that investors would
have to pay in addition to the Public Offering Price, the Trustee has agreed  to
advance  to each Trust the amount of accrued interest due on the Bonds as of the
Date of Deposit (which has been designated  the first Record Date for all  plans
of  distribution). This  accrued interest  will be  paid to  the Sponsor  as the
holder of record of  all Units on  the Date of  Deposit. Consequently, when  the
Sponsor  sells Units of a  Trust, the amount of accrued  interest to be added to
the Public Offering Price to determine the  purchase price of the Units of  such
Trust  purchased by an investor will include only accrued interest from the Date
of Deposit  to, but  not including,  the date  of settlement  of the  investor's
purchase  (five business days  after purchase), less  any distributions from the
related Interest Account.  The Trustee  will recover  its advancements  (without
interest  or  other cost  to the  Trusts)  from interest  received on  the Bonds
deposited in each Trust.
 
    The Trustee has no  cash for distribution to  Unitholders until it  receives
interest  payments on the Bonds in the  Trusts. Since municipal bond interest is
accrued daily but  paid only  semi-annually, during  the initial  months of  the
Trusts,  the Interest Accounts,  consisting of accrued  but uncollected interest
and collected interest  (cash), will  be predominantly  the uncollected  accrued
interest  that is not available for  distribution. In approximately three months
the Trustee will commence regular distributions. Thereafter, assuming each Trust
retains its  original  size  and  composition,  annual  interest  collected  and
distributed  will approximate  the estimated  Net Annual  Interest Income stated
herein. However, the amount  of accrued interest  at any point  in time will  be
greater  than  the  amount that  the  Trustee  will have  actually  received and
distributed to the Unitholders. Therefore, there  will always remain an item  of
accrued interest that is included in the purchase price and the redemption price
of the Units.
 
    Interest  is accounted  for daily and  a proportionate share  of accrued and
undistributed interest computed from the preceding  Record Date is added to  the
daily  valuation of each Unit  of each Trust. (See Sections  3 and 13.) As Bonds
mature, or are redeemed or sold,  the accrued interest applicable to such  bonds
is  collected and subsequently distributed  to Unitholders. Unitholders who sell
or redeem all or a portion of their Units will be paid their proportionate share
of the remaining accrued interest to, but not including, the fifth business  day
following the date of sale or tender.
 
9.  WHAT ARE ESTIMATED LONG TERM RETURN AND ESTIMATED CURRENT RETURN?
 
The  Estimated Long Term Return for each Trust is a measure of the return to the
investor earned over the  estimated life of the  Trust. The Estimated Long  Term
Return represents an
 
                                      A-16
<PAGE>
average  of  the  yields to  maturity  (or call)  of  the Bonds  in  the Trust's
portfolio calculated in accordance with  accepted bond practice and adjusted  to
reflect  expenses and  sales charges.  Under accepted  bond practice, tax-exempt
bonds are  customarily offered  to investors  on a  "yield price"  basis,  which
involves  computation of yield to maturity or to an earlier call date (whichever
produces the lower yield),  and which takes into  account not only the  interest
payable  on the bonds but also the amortization or accretion to a specified date
of any premium  over or discount  from the  par (maturity) value  in the  bond's
purchase price. In calculating Estimated Long Term Return, the average yield for
the  Trust's portfolio is derived  by weighting each Bond's  yield by the market
value of the Bond and by the amount  of time remaining to the date to which  the
Bond  is priced. Once  the average portfolio  yield is computed,  this figure is
then reduced to reflect estimated expenses  and the effect of the maximum  sales
charge  paid by investors.  The Estimated Long Term  Return calculation does not
take into account the delays in payments to Unitholders for the first few months
of Trust operations, and it  also does not take  into account the difference  in
the  timing of payments to Unitholders who choose quarterly or semi-annual plans
of distribution each of which will reduce the return.
 
    Estimated Current Return  is computed  by dividing the  Net Annual  Interest
Income per Unit by the Public Offering Price. In contrast to Estimated Long Term
Return, Estimated Current Return does not reflect the amortization of premium or
accretion of discount, if any, on the Bonds in the Trust's portfolio. Net Annual
Interest Income per Unit is calculated by dividing the annual interest income to
the Trust, less estimated expenses, by the number of Units outstanding.
 
    Net  Annual Interest  Income per Unit,  used to  calculate Estimated Current
Return, will vary  with changes  in fees  and expenses  of the  Trustee and  the
Evaluator  and with the redemption, maturity, exchange or sale of Bonds. A Trust
may experience expenses and  portfolio changes different  from those assumed  in
the  calculation of Estimated Long  Term Return. There thus  can be no assurance
that the Estimated Current Returns or Estimated Long Term Returns quoted  herein
will  be realized in the future. Since both the Estimated Current Return and the
Estimated Long Term Return quoted  herein are based on  the market value of  the
underlying  Bonds on the business  day prior to the  Date of Deposit, subsequent
calculations of these performance measures will reflect the then current  market
value of the underlying Bonds and may be higher or lower.
 
    A  portion of the  monies received by a  Trust may be  treated, in the first
year only, as a return of principal due to the inclusion in the Trust  portfolio
of  "when-issued"  or  other  Bonds  having delivery  dates  after  the  date of
settlement for purchases  made on  the Date of  Deposit. A  consequence of  this
treatment  is that in the computation of  Estimated Current Return for the first
year, such monies are excluded from Net Annual Interest Income and treated as an
adjustment to the Public Offering  Price. (See "Essential Information  Regarding
the Trusts" and Sections 4 and 11.)
 
    For a statement of the Net Annual Interest Income per Unit under the monthly
plan  of  distribution,  and Estimated  Long  Term Yield  and  Estimated Current
Returns based on the Public Offering Prices of the Trusts in this Series, all as
of the day prior  to the Date of  Deposit, see "Essential Information  Regarding
the Trusts."
 
10.  HOW WAS THE PRICE OF THE BONDS DETERMINED AT THE DATE OF DEPOSIT?
 
The prices at which the Bonds deposited in the Trusts would have been offered to
the  public on the business day prior to  the Date of Deposit were determined by
the Trustee on the basis  of an evaluation of such  Bonds prepared by Kenny  S&P
Evaluation  Services, a  firm regularly engaged  in the  business of evaluating,
quoting or appraising comparable bonds. With respect
 
                                      A-17
<PAGE>
to Bonds in Insured  Trusts and insured Bonds  in Traditional Trusts, Kenny  S&P
Evaluation Services evaluated the Bonds as so insured. (See Section 5).
 
    The  amount by which  the Trustee's determination of  the OFFERING PRICES of
the Bonds deposited  in the Trusts  was greater or  less than the  cost of  such
Bonds  to  the  Sponsor was  PROFIT  OR LOSS  to  the Sponsor  exclusive  of any
underwriting profit.  (See Section  3.)  The Sponsor  also may  realize  FURTHER
PROFIT  OR  SUSTAIN FURTHER  LOSS  as a  result  of fluctuations  in  the Public
Offering Price of the Units. Cash, if  any, made available to the Sponsor  prior
to  the settlement date for a purchase of  Units, or prior to the acquisition of
all Portfolio securities by a Trust, may  be available for use in the  Sponsor's
business, and may be of benefit to the Sponsor.
 
11.  WHAT IS THE TAX STATUS OF UNITHOLDERS?
 
At  the  respective times  of issuance  of  the Bonds  opinions relating  to the
validity thereof and to  the exemption of interest  thereon from Federal  income
tax  were rendered  by bond  counsel to  the respective  issuing authorities. In
addition, with respect to  State Trusts, where applicable,  bond counsel to  the
issuing  authorities rendered opinions  as to the exemption  of interest on such
Bonds, when held by residents  of the state in which  the issuers of such  Bonds
are  located, from state income taxes and certain state or local intangibles and
local income taxes.  For a  discussion of  the tax  status of  State Trusts  see
"Summary  of  Portfolios--  Tax Status"  for  the respective  State  Trust. (See
Sections 2 and 3.)  Neither the Sponsor  nor its counsel  have made any  special
review  for the Trusts of the proceedings  relating to the issuance of the Bonds
or of the basis for the opinions rendered in connection therewith.
 
    Taxpayers  must  disclose  on  their  Federal  tax  returns  the  amount  of
tax-exempt  interest  earned  during  the  year.  Federally  tax-exempt  income,
including income on  Units of the  Trusts, will be  taken into consideration  in
computing the portion, if any, of social security benefits received that will be
included in a taxpayer's gross income subject to the Federal income tax.
 
    Gain  realized on the sale or redemption of the Bonds by the Trustee or of a
Unit by  a Unitholder  is includable  in  gross income  for Federal  income  tax
purposes,  and may be includable  in gross income for  state tax purposes. (Such
gain does not  include any amounts  received in respect  of accrued interest  or
accrued  original  issue  discount,  if  any.) It  should  be  noted  that under
provisions of the Revenue Reconciliation Act  of 1993 (the "Tax Act")  described
below  that subject accretion of market discount on tax-exempt bonds to taxation
as ordinary income,  gain realized on  the sale  or redemption of  Bonds by  the
Trustee or of Units by a Unitholder that would have been treated as capital gain
under  prior law is treated as ordinary  income to the extent it is attributable
to accretion of market  discount. Market discount can  arise based on the  price
the  Trust pays  for the Bonds  or the  price a Unitholder  pays for  his or her
Units.
 
    In the opinion of Chapman and Cutler, Counsel to the Sponsor, under existing
law:
 
    (1) the Trusts  are not  associations taxable  as corporations  for  Federal
        income  tax purposes. Tax-exempt interest received by each of the Trusts
        on  Bonds  deposited  therein  will  retain  its  status  as  tax-exempt
        interest,  for Federal income tax purposes,  when received by the Trusts
        and when distributed  to the  Unitholders, except  that the  alternative
        minimum  tax and environmental  tax (the "Superfund  Tax") applicable to
        corporate Unitholders  may, in  certain  circumstances, include  in  the
        amount  on which  such taxes  are calculated  a portion  of the interest
        income received by  the Trust.  See "Certain Tax  Matters Applicable  to
        Corporate Unitholders", below;
 
    (2) each  Unitholder of a Trust is considered to  be the owner of a pro rata
        portion of such Trust under Subpart E, subchapter J of Chapter 1 of  the
        Internal Revenue Code of
 
                                      A-18
<PAGE>
        1986  (the "Code") and will have a taxable event when the Trust disposes
        of a Bond  or when the  Unitholder redeems or  sells Units.  Unitholders
        must  reduce the  tax basis  of their Units  for their  share of accrued
        interest received by  the Trust, if  any, on Bonds  delivered after  the
        date  the  Unitholders  pay  for  their  Units  and,  consequently, such
        Unitholders may have an increase in taxable gain or reduction in capital
        loss upon the disposition of such Units.  Gain or loss upon the sale  or
        redemption  of Units is measured by  comparing the proceeds of such sale
        or redemption  with the  adjusted basis  of the  Units. If  the  Trustee
        disposes  of Bonds (whether by sale,  payment at maturity, redemption or
        otherwise), gain or loss is recognized to the Unitholder. The amount  of
        any such gain or loss is measured by comparing the Unitholder's pro rata
        share  of the total proceeds from such disposition with the Unitholder's
        basis for his or  her fractional interest in  the asset disposed of.  In
        the  case  of  a  Unitholder who  purchases  Units,  such  basis (before
        adjustment  for  earned  original  issue  discount  and  amortized  bond
        premium,  if any)  is determined by  apportioning the cost  of the Units
        among each of the Trust assets ratably according to value as of the date
        of acquisition of the Units. The tax cost reduction requirements of said
        Code  relating  to  amortization  of   bond  premium  may,  under   some
        circumstances,  result in the  Unitholder realizing a  taxable gain when
        his or her  Units are  sold or  redeemed for  an amount  equal to  their
        original cost; and
 
    (3) any  amounts paid on defaulted Bonds  held by the Trustee under policies
        of insurance issued with respect to  such Bonds will be excludable  from
        Federal  gross income if, and to the same extent as, such interest would
        have been so excludable if paid by the respective issuer. Paragraph  (2)
        of   this  opinion   is  accordingly   applicable  to   policy  proceeds
        representing maturing interest.
 
In the opinion of Carter, Ledyard & Milburn, counsel to the Trustee, and, in the
absence of a New York Trust from the Series, special counsel for the Series  for
New York tax matters, under existing law:
 
        Under  the income tax laws of the State and City of New York, each Trust
    is not an association taxable as a corporation and the income of each  Trust
    will be treated as the income of the Unitholders.
 
    For  a summary of  each opinion of  special counsel to  the respective State
Trusts for state tax matters, see Section 3.
 
    ALL STATEMENTS IN THE PROSPECTUS CONCERNING EXEMPTION FROM FEDERAL, STATE OR
OTHER TAXES ARE THE OPINION OF COUNSEL AND ARE TO BE SO CONSTRUED.
 
    The redemption of Units in a Trust  by a Unitholder would result in each  of
the  remaining Unitholders of said Trust owning a greater proportionate interest
in the remaining assets  of said Trust. Although  present law does not  directly
address  this matter, it  would appear reasonable  that a remaining Unitholder's
tax basis in  his Units would  include his proportionate  share of any  proceeds
received by the Trust on the sale of bonds which were not distributed to him but
were  instead used by  the Trust to redeem  Units and that his  tax basis in the
remaining assets of the  Trust would accordingly be  increased by such share  of
proceeds, based on the relative fair market value of the remaining assets of the
Trust as of the date of such redemption.
 
    Sections  1288 and 1272 of the Code provide a complex set of rules governing
the accrual of original issue discount. These rules provide that original  issue
discount  accrues either on  the basis of  a constant compound  interest rate or
ratably over the term of the Bond, depending on the date the Bond was issued. In
addition, special  rules apply  if the  purchase  price of  a Bond  exceeds  the
original issue price plus the amount of original issue discount which would have
previously  accrued based upon its issue price (its "adjusted issue price"). The
application of these rules will also vary depending on the value of the Bond  on
the date a Unitholder
 
                                      A-19
<PAGE>
acquires his Units, and the price the Unitholder pays for his Units. The accrual
of  tax-exempt original issue  discount on zero coupon  bonds and other original
issue discount bonds  will result in  an increase in  the Unitholder's basis  in
such obligations and, accordingly, in his basis in his Units.
 
    The  Tax Act subjects tax-exempt  bonds to the market  discount rules of the
Code effective for  bonds purchased  after April  30, 1993.  In general,  market
discount is the amount (if any) by which the stated redemption price at maturity
exceeds an investor's purchase price (except to the extent that such difference,
if  any, is attributable to original issue  discount not yet accrued). Under the
Tax Act, accretion of market discount is taxable as ORDINARY INCOME; under prior
law, the  accretion had  been  treated as  capital  gain. Market  discount  that
accretes  while the Trust holds a Bond would be recognized as ordinary income by
the Unitholders when principal payments are  received on the Bond, upon sale  or
at  redemption (including early  redemption), or upon the  sale or redemption of
his or  her Units,  unless a  Unitholder elects  to include  market discount  in
taxable  income  as  it  accrues.  The market  discount  rules  are  complex and
Unitholders should consult their  tax advisors regarding  these rules and  their
application.
 
    The Internal Revenue Code provides that interest on indebtedness incurred or
continued  to purchase  or carry  obligations, the  interest on  which is wholly
exempt from Federal income taxes, is not deductible. Because each Unitholder  is
treated  for Federal income tax purposes as the owner of a pro rata share of the
Bonds owned by the applicable Trust, interest on borrowed funds used to purchase
or carry Units  of such  Trust will  not be  deductible for  Federal income  tax
purposes.  Under rules used by the Internal Revenue Service for determining when
borrowed funds are  considered used for  the purpose of  purchasing or  carrying
particular  assets, the purchase  of Units may  be considered to  have been made
with borrowed funds even though the borrowed funds are not directly traceable to
the purchase of Units (however, these  rules generally do not apply to  interest
paid  on indebtedness  incurred to  purchase or  improve a  personal residence).
Similar rules are  generally applicable  for state tax  purposes. Special  rules
apply  in  the  case  of  certain  financial  institutions  that  acquire Units.
Investors with questions regarding  these issues should  consult with their  tax
advisers.
 
    In  general,  each  issue of  bonds  in  the Trusts  is  subject  to certain
post-issuance requirements which must  be met in order  for the interest on  the
Bonds to be and remain exempt from Federal income taxation. Bond counsel to each
issuer generally has opined that, assuming continuing compliance by such issuers
with  certain covenants, interest on such Bonds  will continue to be exempt from
Federal income taxation (other than with respect to the application to corporate
Unitholders of the alternative  minimum tax or the  Superfund Tax, as  discussed
below).
 
    For  purposes of computing  the alternative minimum  tax for individuals and
corporations, interest on certain specified tax-exempt private activity bonds is
included as a preference item. The Trusts do not include any such bonds.
 
    For taxpayers  other  than corporations,  net  capital gains  are  presently
subject  to a maximum tax  rate of 28 percent. However,  it should be noted that
legislative proposals are introduced from time to time that affect tax rates and
could affect relative differences at which ordinary income and capital gains are
taxed.
 
    CERTAIN TAX  MATTERS APPLICABLE  TO CORPORATE  UNITHOLDERS. In  the case  of
certain  corporations, the alternative minimum tax  and the Superfund Tax depend
upon the corporation's alternative minimum taxable income ("AMTI"), which is the
corporation's taxable income  with certain  adjustments. One  of the  adjustment
items  used in computing AMTI and the Superfund Tax of a corporation (other than
an S corporation, Regulated Investment Company, Real Estate Investment Trust, or
REMIC)   is   an    amount   equal   to    75%   of   the    excess   of    such
 
                                      A-20
<PAGE>
corporation's  "adjusted  current earnings"  over an  amount  equal to  its AMTI
(before such  adjustment  item  and  the  alternative  tax  net  operation  loss
deduction). Although tax-exempt interest received by each of the Trusts on Bonds
deposited  therein will not be included in  the gross income of corporations for
Federal income tax purposes, "adjusted current earnings" includes all tax-exempt
interest, including interest on all Bonds  in the Trust and tax-exempt  original
issue discount.
 
    Corporate  Unitholders  are urged  to consult  their  own tax  advisers with
respect to the particular tax consequences  to them resulting under the  Federal
tax  law, including the corporate alternative minimum tax, the Superfund Tax and
the branch profits tax imposed by Section 884 of the Code.
 
    EXCEPT AS NOTED ABOVE AND IN SECTION  3, THE EXEMPTION OF INTEREST ON  STATE
AND  LOCAL  OBLIGATIONS FOR  FEDERAL INCOME  TAX  PURPOSES DOES  NOT NECESSARILY
RESULT IN EXEMPTION UNDER THE INCOME OR OTHER TAX LAWS OF ANY STATE OR CITY. THE
LAWS  OF  THE  SEVERAL  STATES  VARY  WITH  RESPECT  TO  THE  TAXATION  OF  SUCH
OBLIGATIONS.
 
12.  WHAT ARE NORMAL TRUST OPERATING EXPENSES?
 
No  annual advisory fee is charged the  Trusts by the Sponsor. The Sponsor does,
however, receive a fee  of $0.17 per  annum per $1,000  principal amount of  the
underlying  Bonds  in each  Trust  for regularly  evaluating  the Bonds  and for
maintaining surveillance over the portfolio. (See Section 16.)
 
    For Traditional Trusts, the Trustee receives for ordinary recurring services
an annual fee computed at $1.08 per $1,000 principal amount of underlying  Bonds
in the Trusts for that portion of each Trust under the monthly distribution plan
and   $0.76  and  $0.57  per  $1,000   principal  amount  of  underlying  Bonds,
respectively, for  those  portions  of each  Trust  representing  quarterly  and
semi-annual  distribution plans;  for Insured  Trusts, the  Trustee receives for
ordinary recurring services an annual fee computed at $1.12 per $1,000 principal
amount of underlying Bonds in  the Trusts for that  portion of each Trust  under
the monthly distribution plan and $0.80 and $0.61 per $1,000 principal amount of
underlying  Bonds, respectively, for  those portions of  each Trust representing
quarterly and semi-annual distribution plans. The Trustee's fee may be  adjusted
provided  that all adjustments upward will  not exceed the cumulative percentage
increase of  the  United  States  Department of  Labor's  Consumer  Price  Index
entitled  "All Services  Less Rent" since  the establishment of  the Trusts. The
Trustee has the use of funds, if  any, being held in the Interest and  Principal
Accounts  of  each  Trust  for future  distributions,  payment  of  expenses and
redemptions. These Accounts are non-interest bearing to Unitholders. Pursuant to
normal banking  procedures, the  Trustee benefits  from the  use of  funds  held
therein.  Part of  the Trustee's  compensation for its  services to  the Fund is
expected to result from such use of these funds.
 
    Premiums for the  policies of insurance  obtained by the  Sponsor or by  the
Bond issuers with respect to the Bonds in the Insured Trusts and with respect to
insured  Bonds in Traditional Trusts have been paid in full prior to the deposit
of the Bonds in the Trusts, and the value of such insurance has been included in
the evaluation of the Bonds in each Trust and accordingly in the Public Offering
Price of Units of each Trust. There  are no annual continuing premiums for  such
insurance.
 
    The Sponsor has borne all costs of creating and establishing the Trusts. The
following  are expenses  of the  Trusts and,  when paid  by or  are owed  to the
Trustee, are secured by  a lien on the  assets of the Trust  or Trusts to  which
such expenses are allocable: (1) the expenses and costs of any action undertaken
by  the  Trustee to  protect  the Trusts  and the  rights  and interests  of the
Unitholders; (2) all taxes and other governmental charges upon the Bonds or  any
part of the Trusts (no such taxes or charges are being levied or made or, to the
knowledge  of the Sponsor, contemplated); (3)  amounts payable to the Trustee as
fees for ordinary
 
                                      A-21
<PAGE>
recurring  services  and  for  extraordinary  non-recurring  services   rendered
pursuant to the Indenture, all disbursements and expenses including counsel fees
(including  fees  of bond  counsel which  the Trustee  may retain)  sustained or
incurred by  the  Trustee  in  connection  therewith;  and  (4)  any  losses  or
liabilities  accruing to  the Trustee without  negligence, bad  faith or willful
misconduct on its part. The Trustee is  empowered to sell Bonds in order to  pay
these  amounts if funds  are not otherwise available  in the applicable Interest
and Principal Accounts.
 
    The Indenture requires each Trust  to be audited on  an annual basis at  the
expense  of the Trust by independent public accountants selected by the Sponsor.
The Trustee  shall not  be  required, however,  to cause  such  an audit  to  be
performed  if its cost to a Trust shall exceed $.05 per Unit on an annual basis.
Unitholders of a  Trust covered by  an audit may  obtain a copy  of the  audited
financial statements upon request.
 
13.  WHEN ARE DISTRIBUTIONS MADE TO UNITHOLDERS?
 
Interest received by the Trustee on the Bonds in each Trust, including that part
of  the proceeds of  any disposition of Bonds  which represents accrued interest
and including  any insurance  proceeds representing  interest due  on  defaulted
Bonds,  shall be credited to the "Interest  Account" of such Trust and all other
moneys received by the Trustee shall  be credited to the "Principal Account"  of
such Trust.
 
    The  pro rata share of  cash in the Principal Account  in each Trust will be
computed as of each semi-annual Record Date and distributions to the Unitholders
as of such Record Date will be made on or shortly after the fifteenth day of the
month. Proceeds received from the disposition, including sale, call or maturity,
of any of the Bonds and all amounts  paid with respect to zero coupon bonds  and
Stripped  Obligations will be held  in the Principal Account  and either used to
pay for Units  redeemed or distributed  on the Distribution  Date following  the
next semi-annual Record Date. The Trustee is not required to make a distribution
from  the  Principal  Account  of  any Trust  unless  the  amount  available for
distribution in such account equals at least ten cents per Unit.
 
    The pro rata share of the Interest Account in each Trust will be computed by
the Trustee each month as of each Record Date and distributions will be made  on
or  shortly after the fifteenth day of the month to Unitholders of such Trust as
of the Record Date who are entitled to distributions at that time under the plan
of distribution chosen. 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 under the applicable plan of distribution.
 
    Purchasers  of  Units  who desire  to  receive interest  distributions  on a
monthly or quarterly basis may elect to do so at the time of purchase during the
initial public offering  period. Those indicating  no choice will  be deemed  to
have  chosen the  semi-annual distribution  plan. All  Unitholders, however, who
purchase Units during the  initial public offering period  and who hold them  of
record on the first Record Date will receive the first distribution of interest.
Thereafter, Record Dates for monthly distributions will be the first day of each
month;  Record  Dates  for quarterly  distributions  will  be the  first  day of
February,  May,  August   and  November;  and   Record  Dates  for   semi-annual
distributions will be the first day of May and November.
 
    Details  of distributions  per Unit  of each  Trust under  the various plans
based upon estimated Net Annual Interest Income at the Date of Deposit are shown
in the tables appearing  in Section 3. The  amount of the regular  distributions
will  remain the same so long as each Trust portfolio remains the same, and will
generally change when Bonds are redeemed, mature or are sold.
 
                                      A-22
<PAGE>
    The plan of  distribution selected  by a  Unitholder will  remain in  effect
until  changed.  Unitholders  purchasing  Units  in  the  secondary  market will
initially receive distributions  in accordance  with the election  of the  prior
owner.  Unitholders desiring to change  their plan of distribution  may do so by
sending  a   written   notice  requesting   the   change,  together   with   any
Certificate(s),  to  the  Trustee. The  notice  and any  Certificate(s)  must be
received by  the  Trustee not  later  than the  semi-annual  Record Date  to  be
effective   as  of   the  semi-annual  distribution   following  the  subsequent
semi-annual Record  Date. Unitholders  are requested  to make  any such  changes
within  45 days prior to the applicable Record Date. Certificates should only be
sent by registered or certified mail to minimize the possibility of their  being
lost or stolen. (See Section 18.) If no notice is received in proper form by the
Trustee,  the Unitholder  will be  deemed to have  elected to  continue the same
plan.
 
    As of the first day of each month the Trustee will deduct from the  Interest
Account  of a Trust or, to the extent funds are not sufficient therein, from the
Principal Account of  a Trust, amounts  needed for payment  of expenses of  such
Trust.  The Trustee also may withdraw from said accounts such amount, if any, as
it deems necessary to establish a  reserve for any governmental charges  payable
out  of such Trust. Amounts  so withdrawn shall not be  considered a part of the
Trust's assets until such time  as the Trustee shall return  all or any part  of
such amounts to the appropriate account.
 
    For  the purpose  of minimizing fluctuations  in the  distributions from the
Interest Account of a Trust, the  Trustee is authorized to advance such  amounts
as may be necessary to provide for interest distributions of approximately equal
amounts.  The  Trustee  shall  be reimbursed,  without  interest,  for  any such
advances from funds in the Interest Account  of such Trust. It is expected  that
collections  of interest, except during  the first few months  after the Date of
Deposit, will be in such amounts that it will not be necessary for  advancements
to be made by the Trustee.
 
    The  Trustee  shall withdraw  from the  Interest  Account and  the Principal
Account of a  Trust such amounts  as may  be necessary to  cover redemptions  of
Units of such Trust by the Trustee. (See Section 19.)
 
    Funds  which are available for future distributions, redemptions and payment
of expenses are held in accounts  which are non-interest bearing to  Unitholders
and are available for use by the Trustee pursuant to normal banking procedures.
 
14.  ACCUMULATION PLAN
 
The  Sponsor, John Nuveen & Co.  Incorporated, is also the principal underwriter
of the  Nuveen Municipal  Bond Fund,  Inc. (the  "Bond Fund"),  Nuveen  Tax-Free
Reserves, Inc. ("Tax-Free Reserves"), Nuveen California Tax-Free Fund, Inc. (the
"California  Fund"),  Nuveen Tax-Free  Bond Fund,  Inc. ("Tax-Free  Bond Fund"),
Nuveen Insured Tax-Free  Bond Fund, Inc.  (the "Insured Bond  Fund") and  Nuveen
Tax-Free  Money  Market Fund,  Inc.  (the "Money  Market  Fund") and  the Nuveen
Multistate  Tax-Free  Trust  (the  "Multistate  Trust").  Each  of  these  funds
(together,  the  "Accumulation Funds")  is  an open-end,  diversified management
investment  company  into  which  Unitholders  may  choose  to  reinvest   Trust
distributions  automatically,  without any  sales  charge. (Reinvestment  in the
California Fund is available only  to Unitholders who are California  residents.
Reinvestment in the State Portfolios of the Tax-Free Bond Fund, the Insured Bond
Fund,  the  Money Market  Fund and  the  Multistate Trust  is available  only to
Unitholders who  are residents  of  the states  for  which such  portfolios  are
named.)  Unitholders may reinvest  both interest and  principal distributions or
principal distributions only. Each  Accumulation Fund has investment  objectives
which  differ in  certain respects from  those of  the Trusts and  may invest in
securities which would not be eligible for deposit in the Trusts. The investment
adviser to  each Accumulation  Fund  is Nuveen  Advisory Corp.,  a  wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Sponsor. The following is a
 
                                      A-23
<PAGE>
general   description  of  the  investment   objectives  and  policies  of  each
Accumulation Fund. For a more detailed description, Unitholders should read  the
prospectus of the Accumulation Fund in which they are interested.
 
THE BOND FUND
 
    The  Bond  Fund has  the  objective of  providing,  through investment  in a
professionally managed portfolio of long-term  municipal bonds, as high a  level
of  current interest income exempt from Federal income tax as is consistent with
preservation of capital. The Bond Fund  may include in its portfolio  tax-exempt
bonds  rated Baa or BBB or better by Moody's or Standard & Poor's, unrated bonds
which, in the  opinion of  the investment adviser,  have credit  characteristics
equivalent  to  bonds  rated  Baa  or  BBB  or  better,  and  certain  temporary
investments, including securities the interest income from which may be  subject
to Federal income tax.
 
TAX-FREE RESERVES
 
    Tax-Free  Reserves is a  "money market" fund that  includes in its portfolio
only obligations  maturing  within  one  year  from  the  date  of  acquisition,
maintains an average maturity of all investments of 120 days or less, values its
portfolio at amortized cost and seeks to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per
share. It provides checkwriting and expedited wire redemption privileges for its
shareholders.   Tax-Free  Reserves  has  the  objective  of  providing,  through
investment in  a professionally  managed portfolio  of high  quality  short-term
municipal  obligations, as high  a level of current  interest income exempt from
Federal income  tax  as is  consistent  with  preservation of  capital  and  the
maintenance  of  liquidity.  Tax-Free  Reserves  may  include  in  its portfolio
municipal obligations rated Aaa, Aa, MIG-1, VMIG-1 or Prime-1 by Moody's or AAA,
AA, SP-1 or A-1 by Standard & Poor's, unrated municipal obligations that, in the
opinion of the  investment adviser,  have credit  characteristics equivalent  to
obligations   rated  as  above,  tax-exempt   obligations  backed  by  the  U.S.
Government, and temporary investments that may be subject to Federal income tax.
 
THE CALIFORNIA FUND
 
    The California Fund has  the objective of  providing, through investment  in
professionally managed portfolios of California municipal obligations, as high a
level  of current interest income exempt from both Federal and California income
taxes as is consistent with the investment policies of each of the portfolios of
the California Fund  and with  preservation of  capital. Each  portfolio of  the
California  Fund may include  temporary investments that may  be subject to tax.
California Unitholders may reinvest in one of three portfolios of the California
Fund: The Nuveen California Tax-Free  Value Fund, the Nuveen California  Insured
Tax-Free Value Fund and the Nuveen California Tax-Free Money Market Fund.
 
    The  Nuveen California  Tax-Free Value  Fund invests  primarily in long-term
investment grade  California tax-exempt  bonds (I.E.,  bonds rated  in the  four
highest  categories by Moody's  or Standard &  Poor's or, if  unrated, that have
equivalent credit characteristics). The Nuveen California Insured Tax-Free Value
Fund invests  primarily in  the same  type of  investments as  the Special  Bond
Portfolio, each of which is covered by insurance guaranteeing the timely payment
of  principal  and  interest  or  is backed  by  a  deposit  of  U.S. Government
securities.
 
    The Nuveen  California  Tax-Free  Money Market  Fund  invests  primarily  in
high-quality  short term  California tax-exempt money  market instruments (I.E.,
obligations rated in the two highest categories by Moody's or Standard &  Poor's
or,  if unrated,  that have  equivalent credit  characteristics). This portfolio
will include  only  obligations  maturing  within one  year  from  the  date  of
acquisition, will maintain an average maturity of all investments of 120 days or
less, will value its portfolio at amortized cost and will seek to maintain a net
asset
 
                                      A-24

value  of  $1.00 per  share. The  Nuveen California  Tax-Free Money  Market Fund
provides for an expedited wire redemption privilege.
 
THE TAX-FREE BOND FUND
 
    The Tax-Free Bond Fund consists  of the Nuveen Massachusetts Tax-Free  Value
Fund,  the Nuveen New York  Tax-Free Value Fund, the  Nuveen Ohio Tax-Free Value
Fund, and the Nuveen  New Jersey Tax-Free Value  Fund, which are each  available
for  reinvestment to Unitholders who  are residents of the  state for which such
portfolio is  named. The  Tax-Free Bond  Fund has  the objective  of  providing,
through  investment in a professionally managed portfolio of municipal bonds, as
high a level of current interest income exempt both from Federal income tax  and
from  the  income  tax  imposed  by  each  portfolio's  designated  state  as is
consistent with preservation of capital. The  Tax-Free Bond Fund may include  in
each  of its  portfolios tax-exempt  bonds rated Baa  or BBB  or better; unrated
bonds  which,  in   the  opinion   of  the  investment   adviser,  have   credit
characteristics  equivalent to  bonds rated  Baa or  BBB or  better; and certain
temporary investments, including securities the  interest income from which  may
be subject to Federal and state income tax.
 
THE INSURED BOND FUND
 
    The  Insured Bond Fund  consists of the Nuveen  Insured Municipal Bond Fund,

Insured  Tax-Free  Value  Fund, which  are  each available  for  reinvestment to
Unitholders. (The Massachusetts and  New York Portfolios  are available only  to
those  Unitholders who  are residents  of the state  for which  the portfolio is
named.) The Insured Bond Fund has the objective of providing, through investment
in professionally managed  portfolios of  municipal bonds,  as high  a level  of
current  interest income exempt from both Federal income tax and, in the case of
designated state portfolios,  from the  income tax imposed  by each  portfolio's
designated  state, as  is consistent with  preservation of  capital. The Insured
Bond Fund may include in each of its portfolios the same type of investments  as
the  Tax-Free Bond Fund, each of which  is covered by insurance guaranteeing the
timely payment of  principal and  interest or  is backed  by a  deposit of  U.S.
Government securities.
 
THE MONEY MARKET FUND
 
    The  Money Market Fund  consists of the  Nuveen Massachusetts Tax-Free Money
Market Fund and the Nuveen New York  Tax-Free Money Market Fund, which are  each
available  for reinvestment  to Unitholders who  are residents of  the state for
which such portfolio is named. The Money Market Fund includes in its  portfolios
only  obligations  maturing  within  one  year  from  the  date  of acquisition,
maintains an average  maturity of  120 days or  less, values  its portfolios  at
amortized  cost and seeks to maintain a net  asset value of $1.00 per share. The
Money Market  Fund  has  the  objective  of  providing,  through  investment  in
professionally   managed  portfolios   of  high   quality  short-term  municipal
obligations, as high a level of current interest income exempt both from Federal
income tax and from the income tax imposed by each portfolio's designated  state
as  is consistent with stability of  principal and the maintenance of liquidity.
The  Money  Market  Fund  may  include  in  each  of  its  portfolios  municipal
obligations  rated Aaa, Aa, MIG-1, MIG-2, VMIG-1,  VMIG-2, Prime 1 or Prime 2 by
Moody's or  AAA, AA,  SP-1,  SP-2, A-1  or A-2  by  Standard &  Poor's;  unrated
municipal  obligations  that, in  the opinion  of  the investment  adviser, have
credit characteristics equivalent to obligations  rated as above; and  temporary
investments that may be subject to Federal and state income tax.
 
                                      A-25
<PAGE>
THE MULTISTATE TRUST
 
    The Multistate Trust consists of the Nuveen Arizona Tax-Free Value Fund, the
Nuveen Florida Tax-Free Value Fund, the Nuveen Maryland Tax-Free Value Fund, the
Nuveen  Michigan Tax-Free Value Fund, the Nuveen New Jersey Tax-Free Value Fund,
the Nuveen Pennsylvania  Tax-Free Value Fund  and the Nuveen  Virginia Tax  Free
Value  Fund, which  are each available  for reinvestment to  Unitholders who are
residents of the state for which  such portfolio is named. The Multistate  Trust
has  the objective of providing, through  investment in a professionally managed
portfolio of municipal bonds, as high a level of current interest income  exempt
from  both regular Federal  income tax and the  applicable state personal income
tax as is  consistent with  preservation of  capital. The  Multistate Trust  may
include  in each  of its  portfolios tax-exempt  bonds rated  "Baa" or  "BBB" or
better, unrated bonds  which, in  the opinion  of the  investment advisor,  have
credit  characteristics  equivalent to  bonds rated  "baa"  or "BBB"  or better,
limited to  no more  than 20%  of  the Multistate  Trust's assets,  and  certain
temporary investments that may be subject to Federal and state income tax.
 
    Each  person who purchases Units of a  Trust may become a participant in the
Accumulation Plan and elect  to have his  or her distributions  on Units of  the
Trust  invested directly in shares of one of the Accumulation Funds. Reinvesting
Unitholders  may  select  any  interest  distribution  plan.  Thereafter,   each
distribution  of  interest  income  or  principal  on  the  participant's  Units
(principal only in  the case of  a Unitholder  who has chosen  to reinvest  only
principal  distributions) will, on the applicable distribution date, or the next
day on which the New  York Stock Exchange is  normally open ("business day")  if
the  distribution  date is  not  a business  day,  automatically be  received by
Shareholder Services, Inc., transfer agent  for each of the Accumulation  Funds,
on  behalf of such participant  and applied on that  date to purchase shares (or
fractions thereof)  of  the Accumulation  Fund  chosen  at net  asset  value  as
computed  as of 4:00 p.m. eastern time on each such date. All distributions will
be reinvested  in the  Accumulation Fund  chosen  and no  part thereof  will  be
retained  in a separate  account. These purchases  will be made  without a sales
charge.
 
    Shareholder Services, Inc. will mail to each participant in the Accumulation
Plan a quarterly  statement containing  a record of  all transactions  involving
purchases of Accumulation Fund shares (or fractions thereof) with Trust interest
distributions or as a result of reinvestment of Accumulation Fund dividends. Any
distribution  of principal used to purchase  shares of an Accumulation Fund will
be separately  confirmed by  Shareholder Services,  Inc. Unitholders  will  also
receive   distribution  statements  from  the   Trustee  detailing  the  amounts
transferred to their Accumulation Fund accounts.
 
    Participants may at any time, by so notifying the Trustee in writing,  elect
to  change  the  Accumulation  Fund into  which  their  distributions  are being
reinvested, to change from principal  only reinvestment to reinvestment of  both
principal and interest or vice versa, or to terminate their participation in the
Accumulation  Plan altogether and receive future distributions on their Units in
cash. There will be no  charge or other penalty for  such change of election  or
termination.
 
    The  character of  Trust distributions for  income tax  purposes will remain
unchanged even if they are reinvested in an Accumulation Fund.
 
15.  HOW DETAILED ARE REPORTS TO UNITHOLDERS?
 
The Trustee  shall  furnish Unitholders  of  a  Trust in  connection  with  each
distribution,  a statement of the amount of  interest and, if any, the amount of
other receipts (received  since the preceding  distribution) being  distributed,
expressed  in each case  as a dollar  amount representing the  pro rata share of
each Unit of a Trust outstanding and a year to date summary of all distributions
paid  on  said   Units.  Within   a  reasonable   period  of   time  after   the
 
                                      A-26
<PAGE>
end  of each calendar year, the Trustee shall  furnish to each person who at any
time during the calendar year was a registered Unitholder of a Trust a statement
with respect to  such Trust (i)  as to the  Interest Account: interest  received
(including  amounts  representing  interest  received  upon  any  disposition of
Bonds), and, except  for any  State Trust, the  percentage of  such interest  by
states  in which the issuers  of the Bonds are  located, deductions for fees and
expenses of such Trust, redemption of Units and the balance remaining after such
distributions and deductions,  expressed in  each case  both as  a total  dollar
amount  and as  a dollar  amount representing  the pro  rata share  of each Unit
outstanding on the  last business  day of  such calendar  year; (ii)  as to  the
Principal  Account: the dates of  disposition of any Bonds  and the net proceeds
received therefrom (excluding  any portion representing  accrued interest),  the
amount  paid for purchase of Replacement  Bonds, the amount paid upon redemption
of Units, deductions for  payment of applicable taxes  and fees and expenses  of
the  Trustee, 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  Unit outstanding  on the  last  business day  of such
calendar year;  (iii)  a  list  of  the Bonds  held  and  the  number  of  Units
outstanding  on the last business day of such calendar year; (iv) the Unit Value
based upon the last computation thereof made during such calendar year; and  (v)
amounts actually distributed during such calendar year from the Interest Account
and  from  the Principal  Account, separately  stated,  expressed both  as total
dollar amounts and  as dollar amounts  representing the pro  rata share of  each
Unit outstanding.
 
    Each  annual statement will reflect pertinent  information in respect of all
plans of distribution so that Unitholders may be informed regarding the  results
of other plans of distribution.
 
16.  UNIT VALUE AND EVALUATION
 
The  value of each  Trust is determined by  the Sponsor on the  basis of (1) the
cash on hand in the Trust or moneys  in the process of being collected, (2)  the
value  of the Bonds in  the Trust based on  the BID prices of  the Bonds and (3)
interest  accrued  thereon   not  subject  to   collection,  LESS  (1)   amounts
representing  taxes or governmental charges payable out of the Trust and (2) the
accrued expenses of the Trust. The result of such computation is divided by  the
number  of Units of such  Trust outstanding as of  the date thereof to determine
the per Unit value ("Unit Value") of  such Trust. The Sponsor may determine  the
value  of the Bonds in each Trust (1) on  the basis of current BID prices of the
Bonds obtained from dealers or brokers who customarily deal in bonds  comparable
to  those held by the Trust, (2) if bid  prices are not available for any of the
Bonds, on the basis of bid prices for comparable bonds, (3) by causing the value
of the Bonds to be determined by  others engaged in the practice of  evaluating,
quoting  or appraising comparable bonds or (4)  by any combination of the above.
Although the Unit Value of each Trust is  based on the BID prices of the  Bonds,
the Units are sold initially to the public at the Public Offering Price based on
the OFFERING prices of the Bonds.
 
    Because  the insurance obtained  by the Sponsor  or by the  issuers of Bonds
with respect to  the Bonds in  the Insured  Trusts and with  respect to  insured
Bonds  in Traditional Trusts is effective so long as such Bonds are outstanding,
such insurance will be  taken into account in  determining the bid and  offering
prices  of such  Bonds and therefore  some value attributable  to such insurance
will be included in the value of Units of Trusts that include such Bonds.
 
17.  HOW UNITS OF THE TRUSTS ARE DISTRIBUTED TO THE PUBLIC
 
John Nuveen & Co. Incorporated is the Sponsor and sole Underwriter of the Units.
It is  the  intention  of  the  Sponsor  to  qualify  Units  of  National,  Long
Intermediate,  Intermediate, Short Intermediate  and Short Term  Trusts for sale
under the laws of substantially all of the states,
 
                                      A-27
<PAGE>
and Units of State  Trusts only in the  state for which the  Trust is named  and
selected other states.
 
    Promptly following the deposit of Bonds in exchange for Units of the Trusts,
it  is the practice of the Sponsor to place all of the Units as collateral for a
letter or letters of credit from one or more commercial banks under an agreement
to release such Units from time to  time as needed for distribution. Under  such
an  arrangement  the Sponsor  pays  such banks  compensation  based on  the then
current interest  rate. This  is  a normal  warehousing arrangement  during  the
period of distribution of the Units to public investors.
 
    The  Sponsor plans to allow a discount  to brokers and dealers in connection
with  the  primary  distribution   of  Units  and   also  in  secondary   market
transactions. The primary market discounts are as follows:

</TABLE>
 
* The  discount  is  also  applied  on a  dollar  basis  utilizing  a breakpoint
  equivalent in the above table of $100,000 to 1,000 Units, etc.
 
    The Sponsor currently intends  to maintain a secondary  market for Units  of
each  Trust. See  Section 7.  The amount of  the dealer  concession on secondary
market purchases of Trust Units through the Sponsor will be computed based  upon
the  value  of the  Bonds in  the  Trust portfolio,  including the  sales charge
computed as described in Section 6, and adjusted to reflect the cash position of
the Trust principal  account, and will  vary with  the size of  the purchase  as
shown in the following table:

 *Breakpoint sales charges and related dealer concessions are computed both on a
  dollar  basis and  on the basis  of the  number of Units  purchased, using the
  equivalent of 1,000 Units to $100,000, 2,500 Units to $250,000, etc., and will
  be applied on that basis which is more favorable to the purchaser.
 
    The Sponsor reserves the  right to change  the foregoing dealer  concessions
from time to time.
 
    Certain  commercial banks are making Units  of the Trusts available to their
customers on  an agency  basis. A  portion of  the sales  charge paid  by  these
customers  is retained by or  remitted to the banks in  the amounts shown in the
above table.  The Glass-Steagall  Act prohibits  banks from  underwriting  Trust
Units;  the Act  does, however, permit  certain agency  transactions and banking
regulators have not indicated that these particular agency
 
                                      A-28
<PAGE>
transactions are not  permitted under  the Act. In  Texas and  in certain  other
states,  any bank making  Units available must be  registered as a broker-dealer
under state law.
 
    To facilitate the handling of transactions, sales of Units shall be  limited
to  transactions involving a minimum of either  $5,000 or 50 Units, whichever is
less. The Sponsor reserves the right to  reject, in whole or in part, any  order
for the purchase of Units.
 
18.  OWNERSHIP AND TRANSFER OF UNITS
 
The  ownership  of Units  is evidenced  either by  Certificates executed  by the
Trustee or by  book entry positions  recorded on  the books and  records of  the
Trustee.  The Trustee is authorized  to treat as the  owner of Units that person
who at  the  time is  registered  as  such on  the  books of  the  Trustee.  Any
Unitholder  who  holds  a Certificate  may  change  to book  entry  ownership by
submitting to the Trustee the Certificate along with a written request that  the
Units  represented by such Certificate  be held in book  entry form. Likewise, a
Unitholder who holds Units in book entry form may obtain a Certificate for  such
Units  by written request to the Trustee.  Units may be held in denominations of
one Unit or any multiple or fraction thereof. Fractions of Units are computed to
three decimal  places. Any  Certificates issued  will be  numbered serially  for
identification,  and are issued  in fully registered  form, transferable only on
the books  of the  Trustee. Book  entry Unitholders  will receive  a Book  Entry
Position Confirmation reflecting their ownership.
 
    Certificates  for  Units will  bear an  appropriate  notation on  their face
indicating which plan of distribution has been selected. When a change is  made,
the   existing  Certificates  must  be  surrendered   to  the  Trustee  and  new
Certificates issued to  reflect the  currently effective  plan of  distribution.
There will be no charge for this service. Holders of book entry Units can change
their  plan of distribution  by making a  written request to  the Trustee, which
will issue a new Book Entry Position Confirmation to reflect such change.
 
    Units are transferable by  making a written request  to the Trustee and,  in
the  case of Units  evidenced by Certificate(s),  by presenting and surrendering
such Certificate(s) to the  Trustee, at its corporate  trust office in New  York
City, properly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of
transfer. The Certificate(s) should be sent registered or certified mail for the
protection  of the Unitholder.  Each Unitholder must  sign such written request,
and such Certificate(s) or transfer instrument,  exactly as his name appears  on
(a)  the face of the Certificate(s) representing the Units to be transferred, or
(b) the  Book  Entry  Position  Confirmation(s) relating  to  the  Units  to  be
transferred.  Such signature(s)  must be guaranteed  by a member  of an approved
Medallion Guarantee Program or in such other manner as may be acceptable to  the
Trustee.  In certain instances the Trustee may require additional documents such
as, but not limited to,  trust instruments, certificates of death,  appointments
as  executor or administrator or  certificates of corporate authority. Mutilated
Certificates must  be surrendered  to the  Trustee in  order for  a  replacement
Certificate to be issued.
 
    Although  at the date hereof  no charge is made  and none is contemplated, a
Unitholder may be  required to  pay $2.00 to  the Trustee  for each  Certificate
reissued or transfer of Units requested and to pay any governmental charge which
may be imposed in connection therewith.
 
REPLACEMENT OF LOST, STOLEN OR DESTROYED CERTIFICATES.
 
    To  obtain a new  Certificate replacing one  that has been  lost, stolen, or
destroyed,  the   Unitholder   must   furnish  the   Trustee   with   sufficient
indemnification and pay such expenses as the Trustee may incur.
 
    The  indemnification protects the  Trustee, Sponsor, and  Trust from risk if
the original Certificate is presented for transfer or redemption by a person who
purchased it  in good  faith,  for value  and without  notice  of any  fraud  or
irregularity.
 
                                      A-29
<PAGE>
    This  indemnification  must  be in  the  form  of an  Open  Penalty  Bond of
Indemnification. The premium for  such an indemnity bond  may vary from time  to
time,  but  currently  amounts  to 1  1/2%  of  the market  value  of  the Units
represented by the  Certificate. In the  case however,  of a Trust  as to  which
notice of termination has been given, the premium currently amounts to 1% of the
market value of the Units represented by such Certificate.
 
19.  HOW UNITS MAY BE REDEEMED WITHOUT CHARGE
 
Unitholders  may redeem all or a portion of  their Units by (1) making a written
request for such redemption (book entry Unitholders may use the redemption  form
on the reverse side of their Book Entry Position Confirmation) to the Trustee at
its  corporate trust office in New York City (redemptions of 1,000 Units or more
will require a signature  guarantee), (2) in  the case of  Units evidenced by  a
Certificate, by also tendering such Certificate to the Trustee, duly endorsed or
accompanied  by  proper instruments  of transfer  with signatures  guaranteed as
explained in  Section  18 above,  and  (3) payment  of  applicable  governmental
charges,  if any.  Certificates should be  sent only by  registered or certified
mail to minimize  the possibility of  their being  lost or stolen.  In order  to
effect  a  redemption of  Units evidenced  by a  Certificate, a  Unitholder must
tender the Certificate to the Trustee or provide satisfactory indemnity required
in connection with lost, stolen or  destroyed Certificates (See Section 18).  No
redemption  fee will be charged. A Unitholder may authorize the Trustee to honor
telephone instructions for  the redemption  of Units  held in  book entry  form.
Units represented by Certificates may not be redeemed by telephone. The proceeds
of Units redeemed by telephone will be sent by check either to the Unitholder at
the  address specified on his account or to a financial institution specified by
the Unitholder for credit to the account of the Unitholder. A Unitholder wishing
to  use  this  method  of  redemption  must  complete  a  Telephone   Redemption
Authorization  Form and  furnish the Form  to the  Trustee. Telephone Redemption
Authorization  Forms   can   be   obtained  from   a   Unitholder's   registered
representative  or by calling the  Trustee. Once the completed  Form is on file,
the Trustee  will honor  telephone redemption  requests by  any person.  If  the
telephone  redemption request is  received prior to 4:00  p.m. eastern time, the
Unitholder will be  entitled to receive  for each Unit  tendered the  Redemption
Price  as determined above.  A telephone redemption  request received after 4:00
p.m. eastern time will be treated as having been received the following business
day. The redemption proceeds will be mailed within seven calendar days following
the telephone redemption  request. Telephone  redemptions are  limited to  1,000
Units  or less. Only  Units held in the  name of individuals  may be redeemed by
telephone; accounts registered in  broker name, or  accounts of corporations  or
fiduciaries   (including  among  others,   trustees,  guardians,  executors  and
administrators) may not use the telephone redemption privilege.
 
    On the seventh calendar day following the date of tender, or if the  seventh
calendar day is not a business day, on the first business day prior thereto, the
Unitholder  will be entitled to receive in cash for each Unit tendered an amount
equal to the Unit Value of such Trust determined by the Trustee, as of 4:00 p.m.
eastern time on the date of  tender as defined hereafter, plus accrued  interest
to,  but  not  including,  the  fifth business  day  after  the  date  of tender
("Redemption Price"). The  price received upon  redemption may be  more or  less
than  the amount paid by  the Unitholder depending on the  value of the Bonds on
the date of  tender. Such  value will vary  with market  and credit  conditions,
including  changes in  interest rate levels.  Unitholders should  check with the
Trustee or  their broker  to  determine the  Redemption Price  before  tendering
Units.
 
    While the Trustee has the power to determine Redemption Price when Units are
tendered,  the authority has by  practice been delegated by  the Trustee to John
Nuveen & Co.  Incorporated, which  determines the  Redemption Price  on a  daily
basis.
 
    The  "date of  tender" is  deemed to be  the date  on which  the request for
redemption of Units is received  in proper form by  the Trustee, except that  as
regards a redemption request
 
                                      A-30
<PAGE>
received  after 4:00 p.m. eastern time or on any day on which the New York Stock
Exchange (the "Exchange") is normally closed, the date of tender is the next day
on which such Exchange  is normally open  for trading and  such request will  be
deemed  to have been made on such day and the redemption will be effected at the
Redemption Price computed on that day.
 
    Accrued interest paid  on redemption  shall be withdrawn  from the  Interest
Account  of the  appropriate Trust or,  if the balance  therein is insufficient,
from the Principal Account of such  Trust. All other amounts paid on  redemption
shall  be withdrawn from the Principal Account. The Trustee is empowered to sell
underlying Bonds of  a Trust in  order to make  funds available for  redemption.
(See Section 21.) Units so redeemed shall be cancelled.
 
    To  the extent that Bonds  are sold from a Trust,  the size and diversity of
such Trust will  be reduced. Such  sales may be  required at a  time when  Bonds
would  not  otherwise  be sold  and  might  result in  lower  prices  than might
otherwise be realized.
 
    The Redemption Price is  determined on the  basis of the  BID prices of  the
Bonds  in each Trust, while  the initial Public Offering  Price of Units will be
determined on the  basis of the  OFFERING prices of  the Bonds as  of 4:00  p.m.
eastern  time on any day on which the  Exchange is normally open for trading and
such determination is made. As of any given time, the difference between the bid
and offering  prices of  such Bonds  may  be expected  to average  1% to  2%  of
principal  amount in the case of Bonds  in National, Long Intermediate and State
Trusts, 3/4%  to  1  1/2% in  the  case  of Bonds  in  Intermediate,  and  Short
Intermediate  Trusts and 1/2% to 3/4% in the case of Bonds in Short Term Trusts.
In the case of actively traded Bonds, the difference may be as little as 1/4  to
1/2  of 1%, and in  the case of inactively  traded Bonds such difference usually
will not exceed 3%. The difference between the aggregate offering prices of  the
Bonds  in each Trust  and the aggregate  bid prices thereof  on the business day
prior to  the Date  of Deposit  is shown  in the  discussion of  specific  trust
matters.
 
    The  right  of redemption  may be  suspended and  payment postponed  for any
period during  which  the Securities  and  Exchange Commission  determines  that
trading  in the municipal bond market is restricted or an emergency exists, as a
result  of  which  disposal  or  evaluation  of  the  Bonds  is  not  reasonably
practicable, or for such other periods as the Securities and Exchange Commission
may by order permit.
 
    Under  regulations issued by the Internal  Revenue Service, the Trustee will
be required to withhold 31% of the principal amount of a Unit redemption if  the
Trustee  has not  been furnished  the redeeming  Unitholder's tax identification
number in the  manner required by  such regulations. Any  amount so withheld  is
transmitted  to  the  Internal  Revenue  Service and  may  be  recovered  by the
Unitholder only when filing  his or her tax  return. Under normal  circumstances
the  Trustee obtains the Unitholder's tax identification number from the selling
broker at the time the Certificate or Book Entry Return Confirmation is  issued,
and  this number is printed on the Certificate or Book Entry Return Confirmation
and on distribution statements. If a Unitholder's tax identification number does
not appear as  described above,  or if it  is incorrect,  the Unitholder  should
contact  the Trustee before redeeming Units to determine what action, if any, is
required to avoid this "back-up withholding."
 
20.  HOW UNITS MAY BE PURCHASED BY THE SPONSOR
 
The Trustee will notify the  Sponsor of any tender  of Units for redemption.  If
the  Sponsor's bid in  the secondary market  at that time  equals or exceeds the
Redemption Price it may purchase such Units by notifying the Trustee before  the
close  of business on the  second succeeding business day  and by making payment
therefor to  the  Unitholder not  later  than the  day  on which  payment  would
otherwise have been made by the Trustee. (See Section 19.) The Sponsor's current
practice  is to bid at the Redemption  Price in the secondary market. Units held
by the Sponsor may be tendered to the Trustee for redemption as any other Units.
 
                                      A-31
<PAGE>
    The Public Offering  Price upon  resale of any  Units thus  acquired by  the
Sponsor  will be  calculated in accordance  with the procedure  described in the
then currently effective prospectus relating to such Units. Any profit resulting
from the resale of  such Units will  belong to the  Sponsor which likewise  will
bear  any loss resulting from a lower  Public Offering Price or Redemption Price
subsequent to its acquisition of such Units.
 
21.  HOW BONDS MAY BE REMOVED FROM THE TRUSTS
 
Bonds will be removed from a Trust as they mature or are redeemed by the issuers
thereof. See  the "Schedules  of Investments"  and "General  Trust  Information"
under Section 3 for a discussion of call provisions of portfolio Bonds.
 
    The  Indenture also empowers  the Trustee to  sell Bonds for  the purpose of
redeeming Units tendered by any Unitholder, and for the payment of expenses  for
which  income may not be available. Under the Indenture the Sponsor is obligated
to provide the Trustee with a current list of Bonds in each Trust to be sold  in
such  circumstances. In deciding which Bonds  should be sold the Sponsor intends
to consider, among  other things, such  factors as: (1)  market conditions;  (2)
market  prices  of  the  Bonds;  (3)  the  effect  on  income  distributions  to
Unitholders of the sale of various Bonds; (4) the effect on principal amount  of
underlying  Bonds  per Unit  of the  sale  of various  Bonds; (5)  the financial
condition of the issuers; and (6) the effect of the sale of various Bonds on the
investment character of the Trust. Such sales, if required, could result in  the
sale  of Bonds by the Trustee at prices less than original cost to the Trust. To
the extent Bonds are sold, the size and diversity of such Trust will be reduced.
 
    In addition, the  Sponsor is empowered  to direct the  Trustee to  liquidate
Bonds upon the happening of certain other events, such as default in the payment
of principal and/or interest, an action of the issuer that will adversely affect
its  ability to continue payment of the  principal of and interest on its Bonds,
or an  adverse  change  in  market, revenue  or  credit  factors  affecting  the
investment  character of the Bonds. If a default in the payment of the principal
of and/or interest  on any  of the  Bonds occurs, and  if the  Sponsor fails  to
instruct  the Trustee whether to  sell or continue to  hold such Bonds within 30
days after  notification by  the Trustee  to the  Sponsor of  such default,  the
Indenture  provides that  the Trustee shall  liquidate said  Bonds forthwith and
shall not be liable for any loss so incurred.
 
    In connection with its  determination as to the  sale or liquidation of  any
Bonds,  the Sponsor  will consider the  Bond's then current  rating, but because
such ratings are the opinions of the rating agencies as to the quality of  Bonds
they  undertake to rate and not absolute  standards of quality, the Sponsor will
exercise its independent judgment as to Bond creditworthiness.
 
    The Sponsor may also direct the Trustee to liquidate Bonds in a Trust if the
Bonds in  the  Trust  are  the  subject  of  an  advanced  refunding,  generally
considered  to be when refunding  bonds are issued and  the proceeds thereof are
deposited in irrevocable trust to retire the refunded Bonds on their  redemption
date.
 
    Except as stated in Section 4 regarding the limited right of substitution of
Replacement Bonds for Failed Bonds, and except for refunding securities that may
be  exchanged for Bonds under certain conditions specified in the Indenture, the
Indenture does  not permit  either the  Sponsor  or the  Trustee to  acquire  or
deposit  bonds either in addition  to, or in substitution  for, any of the Bonds
initially deposited in a Trust.
 
22.  INFORMATION ABOUT THE TRUSTEE
 
The Trustee is United States Trust Company of New York, with its principal place
of business at 114 West 47th Street, New York, New York 10036 and its  corporate
trust  office at  770 Broadway,  New York, New  York 10003.  United States Trust
Company of New York, established in  1853, has, since its organization,  engaged
primarily  in the  management of trust  and agency accounts  for individuals and
corporations. The Trustee is a member of the New York
 
                                      A-32
<PAGE>
Clearing House Association and is subject to supervision and examination 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.  In
connection  with  the storage  and handling  of certain  Bonds deposited  in the
Trusts, the Trustee may use the services of The Depository Trust Company.  These
services  would include safekeeping  of the Bonds  and coupon-clipping, computer
book-entry transfer and  institutional delivery services.  The Depository  Trust
Company  is a limited purpose  trust company organized under  the Banking Law of
the State of New  York, a member  of the Federal Reserve  System and a  clearing
agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
 
LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITIES OF SPONSOR AND TRUSTEE
 
    The  Sponsor and the Trustee shall be  under no liability to Unitholders for
taking any action or for  refraining from any action  in good faith pursuant  to
the Indenture, or for errors in judgment, but shall be liable only for their own
negligence,  lack of good faith or willful  misconduct. The Trustee shall not be
liable for depreciation or loss incurred by reason of the sale by the Trustee of
any of the Bonds. In the  event of the failure of  the Sponsor to act under  the
Indenture, the Trustee may act thereunder and shall not be liable for any action
taken by it in good faith under the Indenture.
 
    The  Trustee shall not be liable for any taxes or other governmental charges
imposed upon or in respect of the Bonds or upon the interest thereon or upon  it
as  Trustee under  the Indenture or  upon or in  respect of any  Trust which the
Trustee may be required  to pay under  any present or future  law of the  United
States  of  America or  of any  other taxing  authority having  jurisdiction. In
addition,  the  Indenture  contains  other  customary  provisions  limiting  the
liability of the Trustee.
 
SUCCESSOR TRUSTEES AND SPONSORS
 
    The  Trustee or any successor trustee  may resign by executing an instrument
of resignation in writing and filing same with the Sponsor and mailing a copy of
a notice of resignation to all  Unitholders then of record. Upon receiving  such
notice,  the Sponsor is required to promptly appoint a successor trustee. If the
Trustee becomes incapable of acting or is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a
receiver or other public officer shall  take charge of its property or  affairs,
the  Sponsor  may  remove  the  Trustee  and  appoint  a  successor  by  written
instrument. The resignation  or removal of  a trustee and  the appointment of  a
successor trustee shall become effective only when the successor trustee accepts
its appointment as such. Any successor trustee shall be a corporation authorized
to  exercise  corporate  trust  powers, having  capital,  surplus  and undivided
profits of not less than $5,000,000. Any corporation into which a trustee may be
merged or with which it may  be consolidated, or any corporation resulting  from
any  merger or consolidation to  which a trustee shall be  a party, shall be the
successor trustee.
 
    If upon resignation  of a trustee  no successor has  been appointed and  has
accepted the appointment within 30 days after notification, the retiring trustee
may  apply  to  a court  of  competent  jurisdiction for  the  appointment  of a
successor.
 
    If the Sponsor fails to undertake any of its duties under the Indenture, and
no express  provision is  made for  action by  the Trustee  in such  event,  the
Trustee  may, in addition to its other  powers under the Indenture (1) appoint a
successor sponsor or (2) terminate the Indenture and liquidate the Trusts.

investment  companies.  These  registered  open-end  and  closed-end  investment
companies currently have  approximately $32.8 billion  in tax-exempt  securities
under  management.  Nationwide, more  than  1,000,000 individual  investors have

organized  in 1967 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nuveen Corporation, successor
to the original John Nuveen & Co.  founded in 1898 as a sole proprietorship  and
incorporated  in  1953.  In  1974,  John  Nuveen  &  Co.  Incorporated  became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The  St. Paul Companies,  Inc., a financial  services
management  company  located in  St. Paul,  Minnesota. On  May 19,  1992, common
shares comprising a  minority interest  in The  John Nuveen  Company ("JNC"),  a
newly  organized corporation which holds all of  the shares of Nuveen, were sold
to the  general  public  in an  initial  public  offering. St.  Paul  retains  a
controlling  interest in  JNC with over  70% of  JNC's shares. The  Sponsor is a
member  of  the  National  Association  of  Securities  Dealers,  Inc.  and  the
Securities Industry Association and has its principal offices located in Chicago

24.  OTHER INFORMATION
AMENDMENT OF INDENTURE
 
    The Indenture may  be amended  by the Trustee  and the  Sponsor without  the
consent  of any of  the Unitholders (1) to  cure any ambiguity  or to correct or
supplement any provision thereof which may be defective or inconsistent, or  (2)
to  make such  other provisions as  shall not adversely  affect the Unitholders,
provided, however, that the Indenture may not be amended to increase the  number
of Units in any Trust or to permit the deposit or acquisition of bonds either in
addition  to, or in substitution for any of the Bonds initially deposited in any
Trust except as stated in Section 4 regarding the limited right of  substitution
of  Replacement Bonds and  except for the substitution  of refunding bonds under
certain circumstances. The Trustee shall advise the Unitholders of any amendment
promptly after execution thereof.
 
TERMINATION OF INDENTURE
 
    Each Trust may be liquidated at any  time by written consent of 100% of  the
Unitholders  or by  the Trustee when  the value of  such Trust, as  shown by any
semi-annual evaluation, is  less than 20%  of the original  principal amount  of
such Trust and will be liquidated by the Trustee in the event that Units not yet
sold  aggregating more than 60% of the Units originally created are tendered for
redemption by the Sponsor thereby reducing the  net worth of such Trust to  less
than  40%  of the  principal amount  of  the Bonds  originally deposited  in the
portfolio. (See "Essential Information Regarding the Trusts.") The sale of Bonds
from the Trusts upon  termination may result in  realization of a lesser  amount
than  might otherwise be realized  if such sale were  not required at such time.
For this  reason,  among  others,  the amount  realized  by  a  Unitholder  upon
termination   may  be  less  than  the  principal  amount  of  Bonds  originally
represented by the Units held by  such Unitholder. The Indenture will  terminate
upon the redemption, sale or other disposition of the last Bond held thereunder,
but  in no event shall it continue beyond the end of the calendar year preceding
the fiftieth anniversary of its execution for National and State Trusts,  beyond
the  end  of  the  calendar  year preceding  the  twentieth  anniversary  of its
execution for Long Intermediate,  and Intermediate Trusts or  beyond the end  of
the  calendar year  preceding the tenth  anniversary of its  execution for Short
Intermediate and Short Term Trusts.
 
    Written notice of  any termination  specifying the  time or  times at  which
Unitholders  may surrender their Certificates, if any, for cancellation shall be
given by  the  Trustee  to each  Unitholder  at  the address  appearing  on  the
registration  books of the Trust maintained  by the Trustee. Within a reasonable
time thereafter the Trustee shall liquidate any Bonds in the Trust then held and
shall deduct  from  the assets  of  the Trust  any  accrued costs,  expenses  or
 
                                      A-35
<PAGE>
indemnities  provided  by  the  Indenture which  are  allocable  to  such Trust,
including estimated compensation of the Trustee and costs of liquidation and any
amounts required as a reserve to provide for payment of any applicable taxes  or
other  governmental charges. The Trustee shall then distribute to Unitholders of
such Trust their pro  rata share of  the balance of  the Interest and  Principal
Accounts.  With such  distribution the  Unitholders shall  be furnished  a final
distribution  statement,  in   substantially  the  same   form  as  the   annual
distribution statement, of the amount distributable. At such time as the Trustee
in  its sole discretion shall determine that  any amounts held in reserve are no
longer necessary, it shall make distribution thereof to Unitholders in the  same
manner.
 
LEGAL OPINION
 
    The legality of the Units offered hereby has been passed upon by Chapman and

                            DESCRIPTION OF RATINGS*
 
    STANDARD & POOR'S CORPORATION.  A  description of the applicable Standard  &
Poor's Corporation rating symbols and their meanings follows:
 
    A  Standard & Poor's rating is  a current assessment of the creditworthiness
of an obligor with  respect to a specific  debt obligation. This assessment  may
take into consideration obligors such as guarantors, insurers or lessees.
 
    The  rating is not  a recommendation to  purchase, sell or  hold a security,
inasmuch as  it  does not  comment  as to  market  price or  suitability  for  a
particular investor.
 
    The  ratings are  based on  current information  furnished by  the issuer or
obtained by Standard & Poor's from other sources it considers reliable. Standard
& Poor's does not  perform an audit  in connection with any  rating and may,  on
occasion,  rely on unaudited financial information.  The ratings may be changed,
suspended or withdrawn  as a result  of changes in,  or unavailability of,  such
information, or for other circumstances.
 
    The ratings are based, in varying degrees, on the following considerations:
 
     I.  Likelihood  of default--capacity and  willingness of the  obligor as to
         the timely payment of interest and repayment of principal in accordance
         with the terms of the obligation;
 
     II.  Nature of and provisions of the obligation;
 
    III.  Protection afforded by,  and relative position  of, the obligation  in
          the  event of  bankruptcy, reorganization or  other arrangements under
          the laws of bankruptcy and other laws affecting creditors' rights.
 
    AAA--This is the  highest rating  assigned by Standard  & Poor's  to a  debt
obligation. Capacity to pay interest and repay principal is extremely strong.
 
    AA--Bonds  rated AA have  a very strong  capacity to pay  interest and repay
principal, and differ from the highest rated issues only in small degree.
 
    A--Bonds rated A have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal,
although they are somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in
circumstances and economic conditions than bonds in higher rated categories.
 
    BBB--Bonds rated BBB  are regarded  as having  an adequate  capacity to  pay
interest  and repay principal. Whereas they normally exhibit adequate protection
parameters, adverse  economic  conditions  or changing  circumstances  are  more
likely  to lead to a  weakened capacity to pay  interest and repay principal for
bonds in this category than for bonds in the higher rated categories.
 
    Plus (+) or Minus (-): The ratings from "AA" to "BB" may be modified by  the
addition  of a  plus or minus  sign to  show relative standing  within the major
rating categories.
 
    Provisional  Ratings:  The   letter  "p"  indicates   that  the  rating   is
provisional.  A  provisional rating  assumes  the successful  completion  of the
project being financed by  the issuance of the  bonds being rated and  indicates
that  payment of debt service requirements is largely or entirely dependent upon
the successful and timely completion of the project. This rating, however, while
addressing credit  quality subsequent  to completion  of the  project, makes  no
comment  on the  likelihood of,  or the  risk of  default upon  failure of, such
completion. Accordingly,  the investor  should exercise  his own  judgment  with
respect to such likelihood and risk.

*As published by the rating companies.
 
                                      A-37
<PAGE>
    Note  Ratings:  A  Standard  & Poor's  note  rating  reflects  the liquidity
concerns and market access risks unique to  notes. Notes due in 3 years or  less
will  likely receive  a note  rating. Notes  maturing beyond  3 years  will most
likely receive a long-term debt rating.
 
    Note rating symbols are as follows:
 
        SP-1  Very strong  or strong  capacity to  pay principal  and  interest.
              Those   issues   determined   to   possess   overwhelming   safety
              characteristics will be given a plus (+) designation.
 
        SP-2  Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest.
 
RATINGS OF INSURED TRUST UNITS.
 
    A Standard  &  Poor's  Corporation's  rating on  the  units  of  an  insured
investment  trust (hereinafter referred to collectively as "units" and "trusts")
is a current assessment of creditworthiness with respect to the investment  held
by  such trust. This assessment takes  into consideration the financial capacity
of the  issuers and  of any  guarantors, insurers,  lessees or  mortgagors  with
respect to such investments. The assessment, however, does not take into account
the  extent to which trust  expenses or portfolio asset  sales for less than the
trust purchase price will reduce payment  to the unitholder of the interest  and
principal  required to be paid on the  portfolio assets. In addition, the rating
is not a recommendation to purchase, sell or hold units, inasmuch as the  rating
does not comment as to market price of the units or suitability for a particular
investor.
 
    Units rated "AAA" are composed exclusively of assets that are rated "AAA" by
Standard  &  Poor's and/or  certain  short-term investments.  Standard  & Poor's
defines its  AAA  rating for  such  assets as  the  highest rating  assigned  by
Standard  & Poor's  to a  debt obligation.  Capacity to  pay interest  and repay
principal is very strong.  However, unit ratings may  be subject to revision  or
withdrawal  at any time by Standard & Poor's and each rating should be evaluated
independently of any other rating.
 
    MOODY'S INVESTORS  SERVICE, INC.    A brief  description of  the  applicable
Moody's Investors Service, Inc. rating symbols and their meanings follows:
 
    Aaa--Bonds which are rated Aaa are judged to be the best quality. They carry
the  smallest degree of investment  risk and are generally  referred to as "gilt
edge." Interest payments are protected by a large or by an exceptionally  stable
margin and principal is secure. While the various protective elements are likely
to  change, such changes  as can be  visualized are most  unlikely to impair the
fundamentally strong position of such issues. Their safety is so absolute  that,
with  the  occasional  exception  of oversupply  in  a  few  specific instances,
characteristically, their  market  value  is affected  solely  by  money  market
fluctuations.
 
    Aa--Bonds  which  are rated  Aa  are judged  to be  of  high quality  by all
standards. Together with the Aaa group they comprise what are generally known as
high grade bonds. They are  rated lower than the  best bonds because margins  of
protection  may  not  be  as  large as  in  Aaa  securities  or  fluctuations of
protective elements may be of greater  amplitude or there may be other  elements
present  which  make the  long-term  risks appear  somewhat  larger than  in Aaa
securities. Their  market value  is virtually  immune to  all but  money  market
influences,  with  the  occasional exception  of  oversupply in  a  few specific
instances.
 
    A--Bonds which are rated A possess many favorable investment attributes  and
are  to be considered as upper medium grade obligations. Factors giving security
to principal and interest are considered  adequate, but elements may be  present
which  suggest a susceptibility to impairment sometime in the future. The market
value of A-rated bonds may be
 
                                      A-38
<PAGE>
influenced to some degree by economic  performance during a sustained period  of
depressed  business conditions, but,  during periods of  normalcy, A-rated bonds
frequently move in  parallel with Aaa  and Aa obligations,  with the  occasional
exception of oversupply in a few specific instances.
 
    Moody's  bond rating  symbols may contain  numerical modifiers  of a generic
rating classification. The modifier 1 indicates that the bond ranks at the  high
end  of its  category; the  modifier 2  indicates a  mid-range ranking;  and the
modifier 3 indicates that the issue ranks in the lower end of its generic rating
category.
 
    Baa--Bonds which are rated Baa  are considered as medium grade  obligations,
i.e.,  they are neither  highly protected nor  poorly secured. Interest payments
and principal security appear  adequate for the  present but certain  protective
elements  may be lacking or may  be characteristically unreliable over any great
length of time. Such  bonds lack outstanding  investment characteristics and  in
fact  have speculative  characteristics as well.  The market  value of Baa-rated
bonds is more  sensitive to changes  in economic circumstances,  and aside  from
occasional  speculative factors applying to some bonds of this class, Baa market
valuations move in  parallel with Aaa,  Aa and A  obligations during periods  of
economic normalcy, except in instances of oversupply.
 
    Con.  (--)--Bonds for which the security depends upon the completion of some
act or the  fulfillment of  some condition  are rated  conditionally. These  are
bonds  secured by (a)  earnings of projects under  construction, (b) earnings of
projects unseasoned  in  operation  experience, (c)  rentals  which  begin  when
facilities are completed, or (d) payments to which some other limiting condition
attaches.  Parenthetical rating denotes probable  credit stature upon completion
of construction or elimination of basis of condition.
 
    Note Ratings:
 
    MIG 1--This designation  denotes  best  quality.  There  is  present  strong
           protection  by established cash flows,  superior liquidity support or
           demonstrated broad-based access to the market for refinancing.
 
    MIG 2--This designation  denotes high  quality.  Margins of  protection  are
           ample although not so large as in the preceding group.

RE:  Nuveen Tax-Exempt Unit Trust, Series 719

Gentlemen:

    We have served as counsel for you, as Depositor of Nuveen Tax-Exempt Unit
Trust, Series 719 (the "Fund") in connection with the issuance under the
Trust Indenture and Agreement, dated the date hereof between John Nuveen & Co.
Incorporated, as Depositor, and United States Trust Company of New York, as
Trustee, of Units of fractional undivided interest (the "Units"), as evidenced
by a certificate or book entry position, in the one or more Trusts of said
Fund.

    We have also served as counsel for you in connection with all previous
Series of the Nuveen Tax-Exempt Unit Trust and as such have previously 
examined such pertinent records and documents and matters of law as we have 
deemed necessary, including (but not limited to) the Trust Indenture and 
Agreements with respect to those series.  We have also examined such 
pertinent records and documents and matters of law as we have deemed 
necessary including (but not limited to) the Trust Indenture and Agreement 
relating to Nuveen Tax-Exempt Unit Trust, Series 719.

    We have concluded that the Trust Indenture and Agreement for the Fund and
its counterpart in each of the prior issues of Nuveen Tax-Exempt Unit Trust 
are in all material respects substantially identical.

    Based upon the foregoing, and upon such matters of law as we consider
to be applicable we are of the opinion that, under existing federal income
law:

    (i)  For Federal income tax purposes, each of the Trusts will not be
taxable as an association but will be governed by the provisions of 
Subchapter J (relating to Trusts) of Chapter 1, Internal Revenue Code of 
1986 (the "Code").

    (ii) Each Unitholder will be considered as owning a pro rata
share of each asset of the respective Trust of the Fund in the proportion
that the number of Units of such Trust held by him bears to the total number
of outstanding Units of such Trust. Under Subpart E, Subchapter J of Chapter
1 of the Code, income of each Trust will be treated as income of each
Unitholder thereof in the proportion described and an item of Fund income
will have the same character in the hands of a Unitholder as it would have in
the hands of the Trustee.  Accordingly, to the extent that the income of a
Trust consists of interest and original issue discount excludable from gross
income under Section 103 of the Code, such income will be excludable from
federal gross income of the Unitholder, except in the case of a Unitholder
who is a substantial user (or a person related to such user) of a facility
financed through issuance of any industrial development bonds or certain
private activity bonds held by the Trust. In the case of such Unitholder who
is a substantial user (and no other) interest received and original issue
discount with respect to his Units attributable to such industrial
development bonds or such private activity bonds is includable in his gross
income. In the case of certain corporations, interest on the Bonds is included
in computing the alternative minimum tax pursuant to Sections 56(f) and 56(g)
of the Code, the enviromental tax (the "Superfund Tax") imposed by Sections
59A of the Code, and the branch profits tax imposed by Section 884 of the Code
with repect to U.S. branches of foreign corporations.

    (iii) Gain or loss will be recognized to a Unitholder upon
redemption or sale of his Units.  Such gain or loss is measured by comparing 
the proceeds of such redemption or sale with the adjusted basis of such Units.
Before adjustment, such basis would normally be cost if the Unitholder had
acquired his Units by purchase, plus his aliquot share of advances by the
Trustee to the Trust to pay interest on Bonds delivered after the Unitholder's
settlement date to the extent that such interest accrued on the Bonds during
the period from the Unitholder's settlement date to the date such Bonds are
delivered to the Trust, but only to the extent that such advances are to be
repaid to the Trustee out of interest received by the Fund with respect to
such Bonds.  In addition, such basis will be increased by both the
Unitholder's aliquot share of the accrued original issued discount with
respect to each Bond held by the Trust with respect to which there was an
original issue discount and reduced by the annual amortization of bond
premium, if any, on Bonds held by the Trust.

<PAGE>

    (iv) If the Trustee disposes of a Trust asset (whether by sale, payment on
maturity, redemption or otherwise), gain or loss is recognized to the
Unitholder and the amount thereof is measured by comparing the
Unitholder's aliquot share of the total proceeds from the transaction
with his basis for his fractional interest in the asset disposed of.  Such 
basis is ascertained by apportioning the tax basis for his Units among each 
of the Trust assets (as of the date on which his Units were acquired) ratably 
according to their values as of the valuation date nearest the date on which 
he purchased such Units.  A Unitholder's basis in his Units and of his
fractional interest in each Trust asset must be reduced by the amount of his 
aliquot share of interest received by the Fund, if any, on Bonds delivered
after the Unitholder's settlement date to the extent that such
interest accrued on the Bonds during the period from the Unitholder's
settlement date to the date such Bonds are delivered to the Trust, must be 
reduced by the annual amortization of bond premium, if any, on Bonds held by 
the Trust and must be increased by the Unitholder's share of accrued
original issue discount with respect to each Bond which, at the time
the Bond was issued, had original issue discount.

     (v)  In the case of any Bond held by the Trust where the "stated
redemption price at maturity" exceeds the "issue price," such excess shall
be original issue discount.  With respect to each Unitholder, upon the
purchase of his Units subsequent to the original issuance of Bonds held by the
Trust Section 1272(a)(7) of the Code provides for a reduction in the accrued
"daily portion" of such original issue discount upon the purchase of a Bond
subsequent to the Bond's original issue, under certain circumstances.  In the
case of any Bond held by the Trust the interest on which is excludable from
gross income under Section 103 of the Code, any original issue discount which
accrues with respect thereto will be treated as interest which is excludable
from gross income under Section 103 of the Code.

    (vi)  In the case of any Bond which matures within one year of the date
issued, the accrual of tax-exempt original issue discount will generally be
computed daily on a ratable basis unless the Unitholder elects to accrue such
discount under a constant yield method, compounded daily.

    (vii)  In the case of any Bond which does not mature within one year
after the date issued, tax-exempt original issue discount will accrue
daily, computed generally under a constant yield method, compounded
semiannually (with straight line interpolation between compounding dates).

    (viii)  In the case of Trusts for which Municipal Bond Investors Assurance
Corporation ("MBIA") insurance with respect to each of the Bonds deposited
therein has been obtained by the Depositor or the issuer or underwriter of the
Bonds, we have examined the form of MBIA's policy or several policies of
insurance (the "Policies") which have been delivered to the Trustee.  Assuming
issuance of Policies in such form, in our opinion, any amounts paid under said
Policies representing maturing interest on defaulted obligations held by the
Trustee will be excludable from Federal gross income if, and to the same
extent as, such interest would have been so excludable if paid by the
respective issuer.  Paragraph (ii) of this opinion is accordingly applicable
to Policy proceeds representing maturing interest.
<PAGE>

    Because the Trusts do not include any "specified private activity bonds"
within the meaning of Section 57(a)(5) of the Code issued on or after August
8, 1986, none of the Trust Fund's interest income shall be treated as an item
of tax preference when computing the alternative minimum tax.  In the case of
corporations, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 1986, the alter-
native minimum tax and the Superfund Tax depend upon the corporation's
alternative minimum taxable income ("AMTI"), which is the corporation's
taxable income with certain adjustments.

    Pursuant to Section 56(f) of the Code, one of the adjustment
items used in computing AMTI and the Superfund Tax of a corporation
(other than an S Corporation, Regulated Investment Company, Real Estate
Investment Trust or REMIC) is an amount equal to 50% of the excess of such
corporation's "adjusted net book income" over an amount equal to its AMTI
(before such adjustment item and the alternative tax net operating
loss deduction).  For taxable years beginning after 1989, such adjustment item
will be 75% of the excess of such corporation's "adjusted current earnings"
over an amount equal to its AMTI (before such adjustment item and the
alternative tax net operating net operating loss deduction) pursuant to
Section 56(g) of the Code.  Both "adjusted net book income" and "adjusted
current earnings" include all tax-exempt interest, including interest on all
Bonds in the Trust, and tax-exempt original issue discount.

   Effective for tax returns filed after December 31, 1987,  all taxpayers
are required to disclose to the Internal Revenue Service the amount of
tax-exempt interest earned during the year.

    Section 265 of the Code generally provides for a reduction
in each taxable year of 100% of the otherwise deductible interest on
indebtedness incurred or continued by financial institutions, to which either 
Section 585 or Section 593 of the Code applies, to purchase or carry 
obligations acquired after August 7, 1986, the interest on which is exempt
from federal income taxes for such taxable year.  Under rules prescribed by 
Section 265, the amount of interest otherwise deductible by such financial
institutions in any taxable year which is deemed to be attributable to 
tax-exempt obligations acquired after August 7, 1986 will be the amount
that bears the same ratio to the interest deduction otherwise allowable
(determined without regard to Section 265) to the taxpayer for the taxable
year as the taxpayer's average adjusted basis (within the meaning of Section
1016) of tax-exempt obligations acquired after August 7, 1986, bears to
such average adjusted basis for all assets of the taxpayer, unless such 
financial institution can otherwise establish under regulations to be
prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury, the amount of interest on 
indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry such obligations.

<PAGE>

    We also call attention to the fact that, under Section 265 of the
Code,  interest on indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry
Units by taxpayers other than certain financial institutions, as referred to
above, is not deductible for Federal income tax purposes. Under rules used by
the Internal Revenue Service for determining when borrowed funds are con-
sidered used for the purpose of purchasing or carrying particular assets, the
purchase of Units may be considered to have been made with borrowed funds even
though the borrowed funds are not directly traceable to the purchase of Units.
However, these rules generally do not apply to interest paid on indebtedness
incurred for expenditures of a personal nature such as a mortgage incurred to
purchase or improve a personal residence.

    "The Revenue Reconciliation Act of 1993" (the "Tax Act") subjects tax-exempt
bonds to the market discount rules of the Code effective for bonds purchased
after April 30, 1993.  In general, market discount is the amount (if any) by
which the stated redemption price at maturity exceeds an investor's purchase
price (except to the extent that such difference, if any, is attributable to
original issue discount not yet accrued).  Market discount can arise based on
the price a Trust pays for Bonds or the price a Unitholder pays for his or her
Units.  Under the Tax Act, accretion of market discount is taxable as ordinary
income; under prior law, the accretion had been treated as capital gain.  Market
discount that accretes while a Trust holds a Bond would be recognized as
ordinary income by the Unitholders when principal payments are received on the
Bond, upon sale or at redemption (including early redemption), or upon the sale
or redemption of his or her Units, unless a Unitholder elects to include market
discount in taxable income as it accrues.
     
    We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement (File No. 33-52063) relating to the Units referred
to above and to the use of our name and to the reference to our firm in said
Registration Statement and in the related Prospectus.

Respectfully submitted,

Nuveen Tax-Exempt Unit Trust --
Series 719, Maryland Traditional Trust 292
John Nuveen & Co. Incorporated
333 West Wacker Drive
Chicago, Illinois  60606

Attn:  James J. Wesolowski, Esquire
       Vice President, General Counsel
       and Secretary

United States Trust Company of New York,
as Trustee of Nuveen Tax-Exempt Unit Trust --
Series 719, Maryland Traditional Trust 292
770 Broadway
New York, New York  10003

Gentlemen:

    We have acted as special Maryland counsel to the Nuveen Tax-Exempt Unit 
Trust-- Series 719 (the "Fund") with respect to the issuance by the Fund 
of units of fractional undivided interest in the Fund (the "Units") as  
described in a certain Registration Statement (No. 33-52063) on Form S-6
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Registration Statement").
The Fund has been organized under a Trust Indenture and Agreement dated
as of the date hereof between John Nuveen & Co. Incorporated (the "Depositor")
and United States Trust Company of New York (the "Trustee").  The Fund will 
issue the Units in several Trusts, one of which is the Maryland Traditional
Trust 292 (the "Trust").  The Units will be purchased by various 
investors (the "Unitholders"). Each Unit of the Trust represents a fractional
undivided interest in the principal and net income of the Trust in the ratio 
of ten Units for each $1,000 principal amount of the obligations initially 
acquired by the Trust.  Each trust will be administered as a distinct entity 
with seperate certificates, investments, expenses, books and records.

    The assets of the Trust will consist of interest-bearing obligations 
issued by or on behalf of the State of Maryland, its political subdivisions 
and authorities, and, provided the interest thereon is exempt from State 
income tax under the laws or treaties of the United States, obligations
issued by or on behalf of the territories or possessions of the United 
States, including Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Guam, and their 
political subdivisions and authorities (the "Bonds").(N.1)  Distributions 
of the interest received by the Trust will be made semi-annually unless the 
Unitholder elects otherwise.

    You have requested our opinion as to the application of Maryland state and
local taxes to the Trust and the Unitholders.  In rendering our
opinion, we have assumed (i) that the interest on all Bonds in the Trust will 
be exempt from Federal income tax (N.2) and (ii) that the Bonds have been 
issued in strict compliance with all requirements of Maryland law and, where 
applicable, Federal or territorial law.  Furthermore, in rendering our 
opinion, we have relied on the opinion of Messrs. Chapman and Cutler, of even 
date herewith, that:
 
    (i)  The Trust will not be taxable as an association but will be governed 
by the provisions of Subchapter J (relating to trusts) of Chapter 1 of the 
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code");

    (ii) Each Unitholder will be considered the owner of a pro rata
portion of the Trust and will be subject to Federal income tax on the income
therefrom under the provisions of Subpart E of Subchapter J of Chapter 1 of 
the Code;

    (iii) The Trust, itself, will not be subject to Federal income taxes;

    (iv) For Federal income tax purposes, each item of Trust income will have
the same character in the hands of a Unitholder as it would have in
the hands of the Trustee.  Accordingly, to the extent that the income of the
Trust consists of interest excludable from Federal gross income, such income
will be excludable from Federal gross income of the Unitholder;


<PAGE>

    (v)  For Federal income tax purposes, each Unitholder will have a
taxable event upon the redemption or sale of his Unit.  Gain or loss will
be determined by comparing the proceeds of such a redemption or sale with
the Unitholder's adjusted basis for the Unit.  Before adjustment, this basis
would be cost, if the Unitholder had purchased his Units.  For Federal
income tax purposes, if the Trustee disposes of a Trust asset (whether 
by sale, payment on maturity, retirement or otherwise), gain or loss will 
result to each Unitholder; such gain or loss is to be computed by measuring 
the Unitholder's aliquot share of the total proceeds from the transaction
against his basis for his fractional interest in the asset disposed of (such 
basis being determined by apportioning the basis for his Units among all of 
the Trust's assets ratably according to their values as of the valuation
date nearest the date on which he purchased his Units).  A 
Unitholder's basis in his Units and the basis for his fractional
interest in each Trust asset must be reduced by the amount of his aliquot 
share of interest received, if any, on Bonds delivered after the
Unitholder's settlement date to the extent that such interest accrued
on the Bonds during the period from the Unitholder's settlement date
to the date such Bonds are delivered to the Trust and must be reduced 
annually for amortization of premiums, if any, on obligations held by the
Trust.
 
    Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion, for Maryland State
and local tax purposes, that:

    (1)  The Trust will not be recognized as an association taxable as a
corporation, and the income of the Trust will be treated as the income of
the Unitholders.

    (2)  Interest received by the Trust on obligations of the State of
Maryland or its political subdivisions and authorities, or of territories
and possessions of the United States (to the extent federal law exempts
interest on obligations of territories or possessions of the United States
from state taxation) will be exempt from Maryland state and local income
taxes when allocated or distributed to an individual Unitholder of the
Trust.

    (3)  Interest or profit realized from a sale or exchange of bonds
issued by the State of Maryland or one of its political subdivisions
derived from the Trust by a financial institution, as defined in Section
8-101(c) of the Tax-General Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland,
will be subject to the Maryland state franchise tax on financial institutions,
except to the extent such interest is expressly exempt from the Maryland state
franchise tax by the statutes which authorize the isuance of such Bonds
(See Section 8-204 of the Tax-General Article of the Annotated Code of
Maryland).


    (4)  A Unitholder will not be subject to Maryland state or local
income tax with respect to gain realized when Bonds held in the Trust are 
sold, redeemed or paid at maturity, except with respect to gain realized upon 
a sale, redemption, or payment at maturity of such Bonds as are issued by or 
on behalf of United States' territories or possessions, their political
subdivisions and authorities; such gain will equal the proceeds of sale, 
redemption or payment, less the tax basis of the Bond (adjusted to reflect 
(a) the amortization of Bond premium or discount, and (b) the deposit in the 
Trust after the Unitholder's settlement date of Bonds with accrued
interest).
 
    (5)  Gain realized by a Unitholder from the redemption, sale or
other disposition of a Unit will be subject to Maryland state income tax
and Maryland local income tax except in the case of individual Unitholders
who are not Maryland residents.

    (6)  Maryland presently imposes an income tax on items of tax preference
with reference to such items as defined in the Code.  For taxable years
beginning after December 31, 1986, interest paid on certain private activity
bonds constitutes a tax preference pursuant to Section 57 (a) (5) of the
Code.  Accordingly, if the Maryland Series holds such bonds, 50% of the
interest would be taxable by Maryland under the provisions of Section
10-205(f) of the Tax-General Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland,
subject to a threshold amount.

    (7)  Interest on indebtedness incurred or continued (directly or
indirectly) by a Unitholder to purchase or carry Units in the Trust
will not be deductible for Maryland State or local income tax purposes.

    (8)  Trust Units will be subject to Maryland inheritance and estate tax 
only if held by Maryland residents.

    (9)  Neither the Bonds nor the Units will be subject to the Maryland
personal property tax, sales tax or use tax.

    This letter is not to be construed as a prediction of a favorable outcome
with respect to any issue for which no favorable prediction is made herein, or
as a guaranty of any tax result, or as offering an assurance or guaranty that 
a Maryland state or local taxing authority might not differ with our 
conclusions, or raise other questions or issues upon audit, or that such 
action may not be judicially sustained.

    We have not examined any of the Bonds to be deposited in the Fund and held
by the Trust, and express no opinion as to whether the interest on any such
Bonds would in fact be tax-exempt if directly received by a Unitholder;
nor have we made any review of the proceedings relating to the issuance of the
Bonds or the basis for the bond counsel opinions or the opinions of Messrs.
Chapman and Cutler referred to herein.

<PAGE>

    We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement and to the reference to our firm in such Registration
Statement and the Preliminary Prospectus included therein.  In giving
such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of 
persons whose consent is required by Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, 
as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder.


_______________________
(N.1)It is understood that, from time to time, some uninvested cash may be 
held in the Trust.



(N.2)Section 2.01 of the Indenture provides that the Depositor may deposit
delivery statements relating to contracts for the purchase of Bonds (rather 
than actual Bonds) into the Trust.  We understand that, should any such 
contract to purchase Bonds fail, the Depositor intends to pay to all 
Unitholders an amount equivalent to the interest that would have been
paid to such Unitholders had the contract not failed.  Such amount
will constitute taxable income for Federal income tax purposes.

Very truly yours,

Nuveen Tax-Exempt Unit Trust,
Series 719
c/o John Nuveen & Co. Incorporated

United States Trust Company of New York,
   as Trustee for Nuveen Tax-Exempt Unit
   Trust, Series 719
770 Broadway
New York, New York  10003

          Re:   
               Georgia Insured Trust 35
Gentlemen:

         We have acted as counsel to Nuveen Tax-Exempt Unit Trust, Series
719, with respect to certain matters preliminary to the issuance and sale
of units of interest therein (the "Units") pursuant to a Trust Indenture and
Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the "Indenture"), between John
Nuveen & Co. Incorporated, as depositor (the "Depositor"), and United States
Trust Company of New York, as trustee (the "Trustee").  The Units represent
fractional undivided interests in the principal of and net income on
obligations deposited in one of several separate trusts including the
above-captioned trust (the "Trust"), will be evidenced by a certificate
(the "Certificate") and will be sold to various investors (the "Unitholders").
Each separate trust will be administered as a distinct entity with
separate certificates, investments, expenses, books and records.

         The assets of the Trust will consist of interest-bearing obligations
issued by or on behalf of the State of Georgia (the "State") or counties,
municipalities, authorities or political subdivisions thereof (the "Georgia
Bonds") or by the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico or its political subdivisions
(the "Puerto Rico Bonds") (collectively, the "Bonds").  Distributions of
interest on the Bonds received by the Trust will be made semi-annually unless
a Unitholder elects to receive them monthly or quarterly.

         Although we express no opinion with respect therto, in rendering the
opinion expressed herein, we have assumed that the Bonds were validly issued
by the State of Georgia or its instrumentalities or municipalities and the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, or its instrumentalities or municipalities, as
the case may be.


PAGE END

<PAGE>

         Based on the foregoing, and review and consideration of existing
State laws, it is our opinion, and we herewith advise you, as follows:

    1.  For purposes of income taxation by the State of Georgia or any
of its counties or municipalities:

         (a)  The Trust is not an association taxable as a corporation and
each Unitholder of the Trust will be treated as the owner of a pro-rata
portion of the Trust, and the income of the Trust will therefore be treated
as the income of the Unitholder;

         (b)  Interest on the Georgia Bonds and the Puerto Rico Bonds
which is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes
when received by the Trust will be exempt from Georgia income taxation
and therefore will not be includible in the income of the Unitholder
for income tax purposes when distributed by the Trust and received by
the Unitholder;

         (c)  Each Unitholder of the Trust will recognize gain or
loss for income tax purposes if the Trustee disposes of a bond
(whether by sale, exchange, payment on maturity, retirement or other-
wise) or if the Unitholder redeems or sells Units of the Trust
to the extent that such transaction results in a recognized gain or
loss for federal income tax purposes;

         (d)  Due to the amortization of bond premium and the basis adjust-
ments required by the Internal Revenue Code, a Unitholder, under some
circumstances, may realize taxable gain when his or her Units are sold or
redeemed prior to the maturity of Bonds held by the Trust for an amount
equal to such Units' original cost;

         (e)  In the case of Georgia Bonds issued before March 11, 1987
with original issue discount the amount of gain or loss recognized for
income tax purposes upon such sale or redemption of Bonds or
Units may differ from the amount recognized for federal income tax purposes
because original issue discount on such Bonds will accrue on ratable basis
under Georgia law;

         (f)  Interest on indebtedness incurred by a Unitholder to
purchase or carry Units of the Trust and Trustee fees and related expenses
incurred by the Trust which are not deductible for federal income tax
purposes are also not deductible under Georgia law;

    2.  Units of the Trust are not subject to sales or use taxation by
the State of Georgia or any political subdivision thereof;

    3.  Georgia Bonds and Bonds issued by the Government of Puerto Rico are
not subject to intangible personal property  taxation by the State of
Georgia or any political subdivision thereof and although there is currently
no published administrative interpretation or opinion of the Attorney General
of Georgia dealing with the status of bonds issued by a political subdivision
of Puerto Rico, we have in the past, been advised orally by representatives
of the Georgia Department of Revenue that such bonds would also be considered
exempt from such tax;

    4.  No opinion is expressed regarding whether Units of the Trust
are subject to intangilble personal property taxation by the State of
Georgia, however, according to discussions with the Georgia Department of
Revenue, it is the Department's view that Units of the Trust would be
subject to such tax;

    5.  Georgia Bonds and Puerto Rico Bonds are not subject to sales or
use taxation by the State of Georgia or any political subdivision thereof;



    6.  In the case of Trusts for which an insurance policy or policies with
respect to the payment of principal and interest on the Georgia Bonds and
Puerto Rico Bonds has been obtained by the Depositor, any proceeds paid under
such policy or policies issued to the Trust, if any, with respect to the Bonds
in the Trust which represent maturing interest on defaulted obligations held
by the Trustee will be exempt from State income taxes if, and to the same ex-
tent as, such interest would have been so exempt if paid by the issurer of the
defaulted obligations.  Paragraph 1(b) of this opinion is accordingly
applicable to policy proceeds representing maturing interest.

          We have not examined any of the Bonds to be deposited and held in
the Trust or the proceedings for the issuance thereof or the opinions of bond
counsel with respect thereto, and therefore express no opinion as to the
exemption from State income taxes of interest on the Bonds if received
directly by a Unitholder.

          We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement (No. 33-52063) filed pursuant to the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Act"), with respect to the registration of the sale of
the Units by Nuveen Tax-Exempt Unit Trust, Series 719, and to the 
references to our firm in such Registration Statement and the preliminary 
prospectus included therein.  In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit
that we are persons whose consent is required by Section 7 of the Act, or the 
rules and regulations thereunder.

Very truly yours,



Chapman & Cutler

             and Secretary

United States Trust Company of New York,

New York, NY  10003

Re:  
    New York Insured Trust 213
     
     

Dear Sirs:

    We have acted as special counsel, with respect to New York State and New
York City tax matters, to the above Trusts(s) ("New York Trust(s)") of Nuveen
Tax-Exempt Unit Trust, Series 719 (the "Fund") concerning a
Registration Statement (No. 33-52063) on Form S-6 under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Registration Statement"), covering the issuance by the
New York Trusts(s) of units of fractional undivided interest in the New York
Trust(s)( "Units").
    We have not been furnished with a copy of the Registration Statement or
the prospectus, which is a part of the Registration Statement, relating to the
issuance by the New York Trust(s) of the Units.  However, John Nuveen & Co.
Incorporated has authorized us to assume that the proposed offer and sale of
the Units will be carried out in that same manner and upon the same terms and
conditions as that described in the prospectus for the Nuveen Tax Exempt Unit
Trust, Insured Series 193, dated May 19, 1989, which we were furnished and did
examine. In the case of a Fund which contains a New York Insured Trust or
New York Intermediate Insured Trust, we also were not furnished the
Insurance Agreement (the "Policy") between the Municipal Bond Investors
Assurance Corporation (the "Insurer"), the Depositor and the Trustee.
However, John Nuveen & Co. Incorporated has authorized us to
assume that the Policy will be implemented at the closing of the Trust and
be in substance and form materially similiar to the Policy applicable to
New York Insured Trust 108, which we were furnished and did examine.

    We have not been furnished with a copy of the Opinion of Chapman & Cutler
on the Federal Tax status of the Fund, its constituent Trusts and their
Unitholders.  However, John Nuveen & Co. Incorporated has authorized us to
assume that such Opinion will be in substance and form materially similar to
that which was issued in connection with Nuveen Tax Exempt Unit Trust, Insured
Series 193 dated May 19, 1989, which we were furnished and did examine.

    Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that, for purposes of New
York State and New York City franchise taxes, a New York Trust will be a
trust not an association taxable as a corporation; the proposed activities
of a New York Trust will not constitute doing business within the meaning
of section 208.1 of the New York Tax Law or section R46-3.0 of the N.Y.C.
Administrative Code; a New York Trust will not be subject to New York State
or New York City franchise tax imposed on business corporations; a New York
Trust will not be subject to the unincorporated business income tax imposed
by Article 23 of the N.Y. Tax Law or Chapter 46, Title S of the N.Y.C.
Administrative Code; and the income of a New York Trust will be treated as
income of the Unitholders.

    We are further of the opinion that, under existing laws and
administration of the affairs of the New York Trust(s):

    (A)  Interest on obligations issued by New York State, a political
subdivision thereof, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, the Northern
Mariana Islands, or other possessions of the United States within the meaning
of Section 103(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended,
("Obligations") which would be exempt from New York State or New York City
personal income tax if directly received by a Unitholder, will retain its
status as tax-exempt interest when received by a New York Trust and
distributed to such Unitholder;

    (B) Interest (less amortizable premium, if any) derived
from a New York Trust by a Unitholder who is a resident of New York State
(or New York City) in respect of Obligations issued by states other than New
York (or their political subdivisions) will be subject to New York State
(or New York City) personal income tax;

<PAGE>


    (C) A Unitholder who is a resident of New York State (or New York City)
will be subject to New York State (or New York City) personal income tax with
respect to gains realized when Obligations held in the Unitholder's respective
New York Trust are sold, redeemed or paid at maturity or when the Unitholder's
Units are sold or redeemed; such gain will equal the proceeds of sale,
redemption or payment less the tax basis of the Obligation or Unit
(adjusted to reflect (a) the amortization of premium or discount (if any) on
Obligations held by the New York Trust, (b) accrued original issue discount
with respect to each Obligation which, at the time the Obligation was issued,
had original issue discount, and (c) the deposit of Obligations with accrued
interest in the New York Trust after the Unitholder's settlement date);

    (D) Interest or gain from a New York Trust derived by a
Unitholder who is not a resident of New York State (or New York City)
will not be subject to New York State (or New York City) personal income
tax, unless the Units are property employed in a business, trade,
profession or occupation carried on in New York State (or New York City);

    (E)  In the case of a New York Insured Trust or New York Intermediate
Insured Trust, amounts paid under the Policies representing maturing interest
on defaulted Obligations held by the Trustee in the Trust will be excludable
from New York State and New York City income if, and to the same extent as,
such interest would have been excludable if paid by the respective
issuer; and

    (F) Amounts distributable from a New York Trust which are, pursuant to
a Unitholder's election, automatically reinvested in Nuveen Municipal
Bond Fund, Inc. will be treated as if actually distributed to and reinvested 
by such Unitholder.

    Because of the requirement that tax cost basis be adjusted as discussed in
(C) above, under some circumstances a Unitholder may realize taxable
gain when his Units are sold or redeemed for an amount equal to or
less than his original cost.

    Although interest on Obligations issued by New York (or a political
subdivision thereof) would generally be exempt from New York State and
New York City tax, a special limitation may apply with respect to private
activity bonds which are not qualified within the meaning of section 103(b)(1)
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  The interest on such bonds,
to the extent received by a Unitholder who is a "substantial user" (or person
related to such user) of the facilities financed by such bonds, will not be
exempt from New York State and New York City tax for any period during which
such bonds are beneficially held by such "substantial user" or "related
person".

    As an additional matter, if borrowed funds are used to purchase Units
in a New York Trust, all (or part) of the interest on such indebtedness will
not be deductible for New York State and New York City tax purposes.  The
purchase of Units may be considered to have been made with borrowed funds even
though such funds are not directly traceable to the purchase of Units in any
New York Trust.

    We are further of the opinion that, for purposes of the New York State and
New York City franchise tax on corporations, Unitholders which are
subject to such tax will be required to include in their entire net income any
interest or gains distributed to them in respect of obligations of any state
or political subdivision thereof, including New York.  No opinion is rendered
on the includability in entire net income of interest distributed to such
Unitholders in respect of obligations issued by Puerto Rico, the Virgin
Islands, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands or other possessions of the
United States within the meaning of Section 103(c) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended.

    The foregoing opinions are based upon present provisions of Federal,
New York State and New York City law, administrative interpretations thereof
and court decisions.

    In connection with this offering, we have not examined any of the
obligations to be deposited in the New York Trust(s), and express no opinion
whether the interest on any such obligations is, in fact, exempt from Federal,
New York State, or New York City income taxation, or that such interest would 
be tax-exempt under Federal, New York State, or New York City law if directly
received by a Unitholder, nor have we made any review of the proceedings
relating to the issuance of any such obligations.

    We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement and to the reference to our firm in such Registration
Statement and the Prospectus included therein.

Very truly yours,

John Nuveen & Co. Incorporated
333 W. Wacker Drive
Chicago, Illinois  60606

RE:  Nuveen Tax-Exempt Unit Trust, Series 719
      
     Pennsylvania Insured Trust 177

Gentlemen:

    You have requested our opinion as to the Pennsylvania tax aspects of the
above-captioned Trust(s) (the "Pennsylvania Trust(s)") which is (are) a part
of the Nuveen Tax-Exempt Unit Trust Series 719 ("Fund").  The Fund is
organized under the Trust Indenture and Agreement, of even date, between John
Nuveen & Co. Incorporated, as Depositor, and United States Trust Company of
New York, as Trustee.  The Fund will contain several trusts, including the
Pennsylvania Trust(s), which will issue Units of fractional undivided
interests.  The Units will be purchased by various investors ("Unit Holder").
Each Unit of the Pennsylvania Trust(s) represents a fractional undivided
interest in the principal and net income of such Trust(s) in the ratio of ten
Units for each $1,000 of value of the obligations initially acquired by such
Trust(s).  Each Pennsylvania Trust will be administered as a distinct entity
with separate certificates, investments, expenses, books and records.
 
    The proceeds of the sale of the Units will be invested primarily in
interest-bearing obligations issued by or on behalf of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, its agencies and instrumentalities, or political subdivisions
thereof, including any county, city, borough, town, township, school disrict,
municipality, and local housing or parking authority in the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania or issued by Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam or the
Northern Mariana Islands ("Bonds").  Distributions of the interest received by
the Trust will be made semi-annually unless the Unit Holder elects otherwise.
In the opinion of bond counsel to each issuer, the interest on all bonds in
the Trust is exempt fromn federal income tax under existing law.

    You have advised us that for federal income tax purposes each Pennsylvania
Trust will not be taxable as an association but will be governed by the
provisions of Subchapter J (relating to Trusts) of Chapter 1 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986.  Each Unit Holder will be considered the owner of a pro
rata portion of the Unit Holder's respective Pennsylvania Trust and will be
subject to tax on the income therefrom under the provisions of Subpart E of
Subchapter J of Chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. A Pennsylvania
Trust itself will not be subject to federal income taxes. For federal income
tax purposes, each item of trust income will have the same character in the
hands of a Unit Holder as it would have in the hands of the Trustee.
Accordingly, to the extent that the income of a Pennsylvania Trust consists of
interest excludable from gross income under Section 103 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, such income will be excludable from federal gross income
of the Unit Holder.

    Based upon the above facts, it is our opinion that for Pennsylvania state
and local tax purposes, a Pennsylvania Trust will be recognized as a trust not
taxable as a corporation.

    Various personal property taxes are in effect in Pennsylvania, however, 
each of them exempts, inter alia, Bonds, cash, checking and savings accounts 
in and certificates of deposit issued by commercial banks, savings 
institutions or trust companies and United States Treasury obligations.  In
general, these taxes apply to a specified list of items of intangible 
personal property including, inter alia, mortgages and other evidences of
indebtedness and shares of stock issued by business corporations not doing
business in Pennsylvania.  The taxes referred to above include the County 
Personal Property Tax imposed on residents of Pennsylvania by the Act of 
June 17, 1913, P.L. 507, as amended, the additional personal property taxes 
imposed on Pittsburgh residents by the School District of Pittsburgh under 
the Act of June 20, 1947, P.L. 733, as amended, and by the City of Pittsburgh 
by Ordinance No. 599 of December 28, 1967, under the Act of December 31, 1965,
P.L. 1257, and any additional personal property taxes that the School District
of Philadelphia may reimpose on Philadelphia residents under the authority 
contained in the Act of May 23, 1949, P.L. 1676, as amended.  Units evidencing 
fractional undivided interests in a Pennsylvania Trust will not be subject to 
any of these personal property taxes to the extent of that proportion of a 
Pennsylvania Trust represented by Bonds and other exempt assets. Only that 
proportion of the Units represented by taxable assets will be subject to the 
personal property taxes.  Pennsylvania Trust Units may be taxable under the 
Pennsylvania inheritance and estate taxes.
 
    The interest and gain from obligations issued by the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania or by its political subdivisions or by any public authority of
either are exempt from tax under the Act of August 31, 1971, P.L. 395, 
Act No. 94.  However, that Act was repealed by the Act of December 3, 1993,
P.L. 473, Act No. 68 ("Act 68 of 1993") with respect to obligations issued
on or after February 1, 1994.  Pursuant to Act 68 of 1993, profits, gains or
income derived from the sale, exchange or other disposition of exempt 
government obligations issued after February 1, 1994 will be subject to
state or local taxation although interest and "income" derived from the
exempt obligations will continue to be exempt from all state and local 
taxation.  Therefore, the proportion of income representing interest from 
Bonds distributable to Unit Holders is not taxable under the Pennsylvania
Personal Income Tax imposed by Article III of the Pennsylvania "Tax Reform
Code of 1971", as amended by the Act of August 31, 1971, P.L. 362, Act No. 93,
or under the Corporate Net Income Tax imposed on corporations by Article IV of
the Tax Reform Code.  Similarly, such interest will not be taxable under the 
Philadelphia School District Investment Income Tax imposed on

<PAGE>

Philadelphia resident individuals under the authority of the Act of August 9,
1963, P.L. 640, as implemented by Section 19-1804 of the Philadelphia Code,
as amended, and resolutions of the Board of Education of the School District
of Philadelphia made pursuant to the ordinances, and such interest will not be
subject to any of the taxes on net income from business activities in 
Philadelphia under Philadelphia Code Sections 19-1500 and 19-2600, imposing
a Net Profits Tax and a Business Privilege Tax respectively.  The City and
School District of Pittsburgh do not impose any taxes on unearned income.
 
    Under the Pennsylvania Personal Income Tax Law, personal income tax is
imposed upon the following specified classes of income:  (1) compensation for
services, (2) net profits from the operation of a business, profession, or 
other activity, (3) net gains or income from the disposition of property, (4) 
net gains or income in the form of rents and royalties, (5) dividends, (6) 
interest from obligations not otherwise exempt, (7) gambling and lottery
winnings, (8) net gains or income from estates or trusts which fall under any 
of the preceding classifications.  Although there is no published authority
on the question, it is our opinion that any insurance proceeds paid in lieu of
interest on defaulted tax-exempt obligations will be exempt from Pennsylvania 
Personal Income Tax either as payment in lieu of tax-exempt interest or as 
payments of insurance proceeds which are not included in any of the classes 
of income specified as taxable under the Pennsylvania Personal Income Tax 
Law.  Since Pennsylvania Corporate Net Income Tax is imposed upon the 
corporation's net income for federal income tax purposes, because such
insurance proceeds will be excluded from the federal income tax base, such
proceeds will not be subject to the Pennsylvania Corporate Net Income Tax.
Finally, since proceeds from insurance policies are expressly excluded from
the Philadelphia School District Investment Income Tax, insurance proceeds
paid to replace defaulted payments under any Bonds held by the Pennsylvania
Trust(s) will not be subject to this tax.

    Under Act 68 of 1993, a Unit Holder's share of gain upon disposition of a 
Bond issued on or after February 1, 1994 by the Pennsylvania Trust, whether 
by sale, exchange, redemption or payment at maturity, will be taxable 
under the Pennsylvania Personal Income Tax.  Gains on the disposition of Bonds
issued before February 1, 1994 will continue to be exempt.  See 72 P.S. Section
7303(a)(3) and 61 Pa. Code Section. 121.9(b)(3).  While there is no published 
authority with respect to the treatment of such gains for purposes of the 
Philadelphia School District Investment Income Tax, it is our opinion that
gains upon dispositions of Bonds issued before February 1, 1994 are exempt from 
this tax under Act of August 31, 1971, P.L. 395, Act No. 94, and, if the 
question were litigated, the Pennsylvania courts should so hold.  Gains on the 
disposition of Bonds issued on or after February 1, 1994 will be taxable.  
In any event, the Philadelphia School District Investment Income Tax has no
application to any gain on the disposition of property held for more than
six months. 

    In C.C. Collings & Co., Inc. v. Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, 514 A.2d 1373
(1986), and two related cases, the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania held that 
gains or losses from the sale of obligations of the Commonwealth of 
Pennsylvania, its political subdivisions, instrumentalities and agencies are 
not subject to the Corporate Net Income Tax.  Profits, gains or income
derived from the sale, exchange or other disposition of those exempt 
obligations issued on or after February 1, 1994, however, will be subject
to tax pursuant to Act 68 of 1993.  

    There is no published authority under any of the Pennsylvania state and
local income taxes described above with respect to gain from the redemption
or sale of a Unit.  To the extent that such gain represents the
Unit Holder's share of any unrealized gain on the Bonds issued before 
February 1, 1994 and held by the Trust, it is our opinion that such gain is 
exempt from the above-described Pennsylvania state and local income taxes and, 
if the question were litigated, the Pennsylvania courts should so hold.  To the
extent that such gain is attributable to unrealized gain on Bonds issued on 
or after February 1, 1994, such gain will be taxable under such taxes.  In any
event, the Philadelphia School District Investment Income Tax has no 
application to any gain on the disposition of property held for more than six 
months.
 
    Interest on obligations of Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, or the
Northern Mariana Islands is, under federal law, exempt from taxation by states
and municipalities.  Federal law does not expressly exclude from taxation gain
realized upon the disposition of such obligations.  Therefore, a disposition
of such obligations by a Pennsylvania Trust could be a taxable event to a
Holder under each of the Pennsylvania state and local income taxes discussed
in the preceding paragraphs.  See Willcuts v. Bunn, 282 U.S. 216 (1931); U.S.
v. Stewart, 311 U.S. 60 (1940).  Similarly, to the extent that gain on the
redemption or sale of a Unit represents unrealized gain on such obligations
held by a Pennsylvania Trust, such gain could be taxable. 

    We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement (No. 33-52063) relating to the Units referred to
above, and to the reference to our firm as special Pennsylvania tax counsel in
said Registration Statement and in the related Prospectus.

        This is in response to your requests regarding the above-captioned
fund which consists of separate underlying insured and traditional unit
investment trusts, SEC file # 33-52063.

        INSURED TRUSTS.

        With respect to the insured trusts we have reviewed the information
presented to us and have assigned a 'AAA' rating to the units of each insured
trust and a 'AAA' rating to the securities contained in each insured trust.
The ratings are direct reflections of the portfolio of each insured trust,
which will be composed soley of securities covered by bond insurance policies
that insure against default in the payment of principal and interest on the
securities contained in each insured trust for as long as they remain
outstanding.  We understand that the bonds described in the prospectus are the
same as those in the attatched list.  Since such policies have been issued by
MBIA which has been assigned a 'AAA' claims paying ability rating by S&P, S&P
has assigned a 'AAA' to the units of each insured trust and a 'AAA' rating to
the securities contained in each trust.

        You have permission to use the name of Standard & Poor's Corporation
and the above-assigned rating in connection with your dissemination of
information relating to the insured trusts provided that it is understood
that the ratings are not 'market' ratings nor recommendations to buy, hold or
sell the units of the insured trusts or the securities contained in the
insured trusts.  Further, it should be understood the rating on the units of
each insured trust does not take into account the extent to which the trust's
expenses or portfolio asset sales for less than the principal required to be
paid on the portfolio assets.  S&P reserves the right to advise its own
clients, subscribers, and the public of the ratings.  S&P relies on the
sponsor and its counsel, accountants, and other experts for the accuracy and
completeness of the information submitted in connection with the ratings.  S&P
does not independently verify the truth or accuracy of any such information.

        This letter evidences our consent to the use of the name of Standard &
Poor's Corporation in connection with the rating assigned to the units of each
insured trust in the registration statement or prospectus relating to the
units and the trusts.  However, this letter should not be construed as a
consent by us, within the meaning of section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933,
to the use of Standard and Poor's Corporation in connection with the ratings
assigned to the securities contained in the insured trusts.  You are hereby
authorized to file a copy of this letter with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

        Please be certain to send us three copies of your final prospectus as
soon as it becomes available.  Should we not receive them within a reasonable
time after the closing or should they not conform to certification received by
us, we reserve the right to nullify the ratings.

        TRADITIONAL TRUSTS.

        With respect to the traditional unit investment trusts within the
above-captioned fund, we have reviewed the information presented to us and we
hereby confirm that the ratings indicated in the prospectus as being assigned
by Standard & Poor's Corporation to the securities contained in each
traditional trust of such fund are, according to our records, the ratings
currently assigned by Standard & Poor's Corporation to such securities.  You
understand that Standard & Poor's Corporation has not consented to, and will
not consent to, being named as "expert" under the federal securities laws,
including and without limitation, Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933,
with respect to the ratings on any securities contained in any of the
traditional trusts.

        Please note that the 'AAA' rating assigned to the units of each
insured trust does not apply to the units of any of the traditional trusts.
