(d) The first and second paragraphs of Section 2.01 are
hereby restated in their entirety as follows:
Section 2.01. Deposit of Securities. (a) The Depositor, on
the date of the Trust Agreement, has deposited with the Trustee
in trust the Securities listed in Schedule A to the Trust
Agreement in bearer form or duly endorsed in blank or accompanied
by all necessary instruments of assignment and transfer in proper
form or Contract Obligations relating to such Securities to be
held, managed and applied by the Trustee as herein provided. The
Depositor shall deliver the Securities listed on said Schedule A
which were not actually delivered concurrently with the execution
and delivery to the Trust Agreement and which were represented by
Contract Obligations to the Trustee within 10 calendar days after
said execution and delivery (the "Delivery Period"). If a
contract to buy such Securities between the Depositor and seller
is terminated by the seller thereof for any reason beyond the
control of the Depositor or if for any other reason the
Securities are not delivered to the Trust by the end of the
Delivery Period, the Trustee shall immediately draw on the letter
of credit, if any, in its entirety, apply the monies in
accordance with Section 3.03(b), and the Depositor shall
forthwith take the remedial action specified in Section 3.13. If
the Depositor does not take the action specified in Section 3.13
within 10 calendar days of the end of the Delivery Period, the
Trustee shall forthwith take the action specified in Section
3.13.
(b)(1)From time to time following the Initial Date of
Deposit, the Depositor is hereby authorized, in its
discretion, to assign, convey to and deposit with the
Trustee (i) additional Securities, duly endorsed in blank or
accompanied by all necessary instruments of assignment and
transfer in proper form, (ii) Contract Obligations relating
to such additional Securities, accompanied by cash and/or
letter(s) of credit as specified in paragraph (c) of this
Section 2.01, or (iii) cash (or a letter of credit in lieu
of cash) with instructions to purchase additional
Securities, in an amount equal to the portion of the Unit
Value of the Units created by such deposit attributable to
the Securities to be purchased pursuant to such
instructions. Except as provided in the following
subparagraphs (2), (3) and (4) the Depositor, in each case,
shall ensure that each deposit of additional Securities
pursuant to this Section shall maintain, as nearly as
practicable, the Percentage Ratio. Each such deposit of
additional Securities shall be made pursuant to a Notice of
Deposit of Additional Securities delivered by the Depositor
to the Trustee. Instructions to purchase additional
Securities shall be in writing, and shall specify the name
of the Security, CUSIP number, if any, aggregate amount,
price or price range and date to be purchased. When
requested by the Trustee, the Depositor shall act as broker
to execute purchases in accordance with such instructions;
the Depositor shall be entitled to compensation therefor in
accordance with applicable law and regulations. The Trustee
shall have no liability for any loss or depreciation
resulting from any purchase made pursuant to the Depositor's
instructions or made by the Depositor as broker.
(2) Additional Securities (or Contract Obligations
therefor) may, at the Depositor's discretion, be deposited
or purchased in round lots. If the amount of the deposit is
insufficient to acquire round lots of each Security to be
acquired, the additional Securities shall be deposited or
purchased in the order of the Security in the Trust most
under-represented immediately before the deposit with
respect to the Percentage Ratio.
(3) If at the time of a deposit of additional
Securities, Securities of an issue deposited on the Initial
Date of Deposit (or of an issue of Replacement Securities
acquired to replace an issue deposited on the Initial Date
of Deposit) are unavailable, cannot be purchased at
reasonable prices or their purchase is prohibited or
restricted by applicable law, regulation or policies, the
Depositor may (i) deposit, or instruct the Trustee to
purchase, in lieu thereof, another issue of Securities or
Replacement Securities or (ii) deposit cash or a letter of
credit in an amount equal to the valuation of the issue of
Securities whose acquisition is not feasible with
instructions to acquire such Securities of such issue when
they become available.
(4) Any contrary authorization in the preceding
subparagraphs (1) through (3) notwithstanding, deposits of
additional Securities made after the 90-day period
immediately following the Initial Date of Deposit (except
for deposits made to replace Failed Contract Obligations if
such deposits occur with 20 days from the date of a failure
occurring within such initial 90-day period) shall maintain
exactly the Percentage Ratio existing immediately prior to
such deposit.
(5) In connection with and at the time of any deposit
of additional Securities pursuant to this Section 2.01(b),
the Depositor shall exactly replicate Cash (as defined
below) received or receivable by the Trust as of the date of
such deposit. For purposes of this paragraph, "Cash" means,
as to the Principal Account, cash or other property (other
than Securities) on hand in the Principal Account or
receivable and to be credited to the Principal Account as of
the date of the deposit (other than amounts to be
distributed solely to persons other than holders of Units
created by the deposit) and, as to the Income Account, cash
or other property (other than Securities) received by the
Trust as of the date of the deposit or receivable by the
Trust in respect of a record date for a payment on a
Security which has occurred or will occur before the Trust
will be the holder of record of a Security, reduced by the
amount of any cash or other property received or receivable
on any Security allocable (in accordance with the Trustee's
calculations of distributions from the Income Account
pursuant to Section 3.05) to a distribution made or to be
made in respect of a Record Date occurring prior to the
deposit. Such replication will be made on the basis of a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Units
created by the deposit and the denominator of which is the
number of Units which are outstanding immediately prior to
the deposit."
(e) Section 2.01 is hereby amended to include the following
subsection:
"(c) In connection with the deposits described in
Section 2.01 (a) and (b), the Depositor has, in the case of
Section 2.01(a) deposits, and, prior to the Trustee
accepting a Section 2.01(b) deposit, will, deposit cash
and/or letter(s) of credit (meeting the conditions set forth
in Section 2.07) in an amount sufficient to purchase the
Contract Obligations (the "Purchase Amount") relating to
Securities which are not actually delivered to the Trustee
at the time of such deposit, the terms of which
unconditionally allow the Trustee to draw on the full amount
of the available letter of credit. The Trustee may allow
the Depositor to substitute for any letter(s) of credit
deposited with the Trustee in connection with the deposits
described in Section 2.01(a) and (b) cash in an amount
sufficient to satisfy the obligations to which the letter(s)
of credit relates. Any substituted letter(s) of credit
shall be released by the Trustee. The Trustee may deposit
such cash or cash drawn on the letter of credit in a non-
interest bearing account for the Trust."
(f) The third paragraph of Section 2.01 is hereby amended
as subsection (d).
(g) The following Section 2.07 shall be added immediately
after Section 2.06.
"Section 2.07. Letter of Credit. The Trustee shall not
accept any letter of credit under this Indenture unless the
stated expiration date of the letter of credit is at least thirty
days from the respective date of deposit of Contract Obligations
pursuant to Section 2.01(a) or 2.01(b). The Trustee is
authorized to downpost the amount available under the letter of
credit, if any, deposited by the Depositor by an amount equal to
the purchase price of Contract Obligations representing
Securities delivered to the Trust on the date of delivery of such
Securities."
(h) Section 3.01 of the Standard Terms and Conditions of
Trust shall be replaced in its entirety with the following:
"Section 3.01. Initial Cost. The expenses incurred in
establishing a Trust, including the cost of the initial
preparation and typesetting of the registration statement,
prospectuses (including preliminary prospectuses), the indenture,
and other documents relating to a Trust, printing of
Certificates, Securities and Exchange Commission and state blue
sky registration fees, the costs of the initial valuation of the
portfolio and audit of a Trust, the initial fees and expenses of
the Trustee, and legal and other out-of-pocket expenses related
thereto, but not including the expenses incurred in the printing
of preliminary prospectuses and prospectuses, expenses incurred
in the preparation and printing of brochures and other
advertising materials and any other selling expenses, to the
extent not borne by the Depositor, shall be borne by the Trust.
To the extent the funds in the Interest and Principal Accounts of
the Trust shall be insufficient to pay the expenses borne by the
Trust specified in this Section 3.01, the Trustee shall advance
out of its own funds and cause to be deposited and credited to
the Interest Account such amount as may be required to permit
payment of such expenses. The Trustee shall be reimbursed for
such advance on each Record Date from funds on hand in the
Interest Account or, to the extent funds are not available in
such Account, from the Principal Account, in the amount deemed to
have accrued as of such Record Date as provided in the following
sentence (less prior payments on account of such advances, if
any), and the provisions of Section 6.04 with respect to the
reimbursement of disbursements for Trust expenses, including,
without limitation, the lien in favor of the Trustee therefor and
the authority to sell Securities as needed to fund such
reimbursement, shall apply to the payment of expenses made
pursuant to this Section. For purposes of calculation of
distributions under Section 3.05 and the addition provided in
clause (d) of Section 5.01, the expenses borne by the Trust
pursuant to this Section shall be deemed to have been paid on the
date of the Trust Agreement and to accrue at a daily rate over
the time period specified for their amortization provided in the
Prospectus; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be
deemed to prevent, and the Trustee shall be entitled to full
reimbursement for any advances made pursuant to this Section no
later than the termination of the Trust. For purposes of
calculating the accrual of organizational expenses under this
Section 3.01, the Trustee shall rely on the written estimates of
such expenses provided by the Depositor pursuant to Section
5.01."
(i) Section 3.05 of Article III of the Standard Terms and
Conditions of Trust is hereby amended to include the following
subsection:
"Section 3.05(e) deduct from the Interest
Account or, to the extent funds are not available in
such Account, from the Principal Account and pay to the
Depositor the amount that it is entitled to receive
pursuant to Section 3.15."
(j) Section 3.06(B)(3) is amended in its entirety to read
as follows:
"(3) the amount paid for purchases of New
Securities, Replacement Securities or Reinvestment
Securities pursuant to Section 3.13 and for redemptions
pursuant to Section 5.02."
(k) The title of Section 3.13 of Article III of the
Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust is hereby amended in its
entirety to read as follows:
"Section 3.13. Limited Replacement of Special
Securities; Replacement Securities; Reinvestment of
Principal."
(l) Section 3.13 of Article III of the Standard Terms and
Conditions of Trust is hereby amended by inserting the following
paragraphs immediately preceding the last paragraph of such
Section:
"From the Initial Date of Deposit until such time
as the Depositor notifies the Trustee in writing that
such action is impractical (the "Reinvestment Period"),
the Trustee shall, as directed by the Depositor, enter
into contracts (which the Depositor shall have approved
as satisfactory in form and substance) to purchase
obligations to be held as Securities hereunder as part
of the Trust Fund (the "Reinvestment Securities") and
shall pay for the same with the moneys held in the
Principal Account representing the payment or
prepayment of principal on the underlying Securities to
the extent that such proceeds are not required for the
purpose of redemption of Units or other charges to the
Principal Account then pending. In giving such
direction, the Depositor shall determine that the
Reinvestment Securities to be acquired pursuant to such
contract are taxable, mortgage-backed securities of the
modified pass-through type, fully guaranteed as to
principal and interest by the Government National
Mortgage Association and are substantially similar as
to maturity and interest rates as the Securities upon
which the principal used to purchase such Reinvestment
Securities was received.
The Trustee may purchase the Reinvestment
Securities for deposit in the Trust Fund directly from
market makers in such Securities or may retain the
Depositor or other brokers to purchase the Reinvestment
Securities and pay them usual and customary brokerage
commissions for such transactions. Funds remaining in
the Principal Account subsequent to a purchase of
Reinvestment Securities will remain in such Account
until such time as they can be invested into additional
Reinvestment Securities. During the Reinvestment
Period, amounts in the Principal Account which, the
Depositor determines and so notifies the Trustee in
writing or via facsimile, are (a) unable to be invested
into Reinvestment Securities or (b) are required to be
distributed for "regulated investment company" tax
purposes shall be distributed on the next semi-annual
distribution date, June 30 and December 31 of each
year, to Unit holders of record on June 1 and December
1, respectively.
At such time as the Depositor shall determine that
the reinvestment of cash from the Principal Account
into Reinvestment Securities shall no longer be
practical, the Depositor shall notify the Trustee, in
writing, that the Reinvestment Period is terminated.
Upon termination of the Reinvestment Period,
unreinvested amounts remaining in the Principal Account
and amounts subsequently credited to the Principal
Account shall be distributed in accordance with Section
3.05."
(m) The last paragraph of Section 3.13 of the Standard
Terms and Conditions of Trust is replaced as follows:
"Whenever a New Security is acquired by the
Depositor pursuant to the provisions of this Section
3.13, the Trustee shall, within five days thereafter,
mail to all Holders of Units of the respective Trust
Fund notice of such acquisition, including an
identification of the failed Special Security and the
New Security acquired.
The Trustee shall not be liable or responsible in
any way for depreciation or loss incurred by reason of
any purchase made pursuant to any direction of the
Depositor provided in this Section 3.13, and in the
absence of such direction the Trustee shall have no
duty to make any purchase. The Depositors shall not be
liable for errors of judgment in respect of this
Section 3.13; provided however, that this provision
shall not protect the Depositor against any liability
to which it would otherwise be subject by reason of
willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in
the performance of its duties or by reason of its
reckless disregard of its obligations and duties
hereunder."
(n) The phrase "in an amount which shall not exceed $0.15
per 1000 Units" in the first sentence of Section 3.14 shall be
amended to read "as set forth in the Prospectus per Unit".
(o) Article III of the Standard Terms and Conditions of
Trust is hereby amended by inserting the following paragraphs
which shall be entitled Section 3.15:
"Section 3.15. Bookkeeping and Administrative Expenses. As
compensation for providing bookkeeping and other administrative
services of a character described in Section 26(a)(2)(C) of the
Investment Company Act of 1940 to the extent such services are in
addition to, and do not duplicate, the services to be provided
hereunder by the Trustee or the Portfolio Supervisor, the
Depositor shall receive against a statement or statements
therefor submitted to the Trustee monthly or annually an
aggregate annual fee in an amount which shall not exceed $0.00010
times the number of Units outstanding as of January 1 of such
year except for a year or years in which an initial offering
period as determined by Section 4.01 of this Indenture occurs, in
which case the fee for a month is based on the number of Units
outstanding at the end of such month (such annual fee to be pro
rated for any calendar year in which the Depositor provides
service during less than the whole of such year), but in no event
shall such compensation when combined with all compensation
received from other unit investment trusts for which the
Depositor hereunder is acting as Depositor for providing such
bookkeeping and administrative services in any calendar year
exceed the aggregate cost to the Depositor for the cost of
providing services to such unit investment trusts. Such
compensation may, from time to time, be adjusted provided that
the total adjustment upward does not, at the time of such
adjustment, exceed the percentage of the total increase, after
the date hereof, in consumer prices for services as measured by
the United States Department of Labor Consumer Price Index
entitled "All Services Less Rent of Shelter" or similar index, if
such index should no longer be published. The consent or
concurrence of any Unit holder hereunder shall not be required
for any such adjustment or increase. Such compensation shall be
paid by the Trustee, upon receipt of invoice therefor from the
Depositor, upon which, as to the cost incurred by the Depositor
of providing services hereunder the Trustee may rely, and shall
be charged against the Interest and Principal Accounts on or
before the Distribution Date following the Monthly Record Date on
which such period terminates. The Trustee shall have no
liability to any Certificateholder or other person for any
payment made in good faith pursuant to this Section.
If the cash balance in the Interest and Principal Accounts
shall be insufficient to provide for amounts payable pursuant to
this Section 3.15, the Trustee shall have the power to sell (i)
Securities from the current list of Securities designated to be
sold pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof, or (ii) if no such
Securities have been so designated, such Securities as the
Trustee may see fit to sell in its own discretion, and to apply
the proceeds of any such sale in payment of the amounts payable
pursuant to this Section 3.15.
Any moneys payable to the Depositor pursuant to this Section
3.15 shall be secured by a prior lien on the Trust Fund except
that no such lien shall be prior to any lien in favor of the
Trustee under the provisions of Section 6.04 herein."
(p) All provisions regarding the Distribution Date included
in Section 3.05 of Article III of the Standard Terms and
Conditions of Trust are hereby amended to change the Distribution
Date from the first day of the month following the Record Date to
the last day of the month in which the Record Date occurs.
(q) Article III of the Standard Terms and Conditions of
Trust is hereby amended by inserting the following paragraph
which shall be entitled Section 3.16:
"Section 3.16. Deferred Sales Charge. If the
prospectus related to the Trust specifies a deferred sales
charge, the Trustee shall, on the dates specified in and as
permitted by such Prospectus (the "Deferred Sales Charge
Payment Dates"), withdraw from the Principal Account, an
amount per Unit specified in such Prospectus and credit such
amount to a special non-Trust account designated by the
Depositor out of which the deferred sales charge will be
distributed to or on the order of the Depositor on such
Deferred Sales Charge Payment Dates (the "Deferred Sales
Charge Account"). If the balance in the Principal Account
is insufficient to make such withdrawal, the Trustee shall,
as directed by the Depositor, advance funds in an amount
required to fund the proposed withdrawal and be entitled to
reimbursement of such advance upon the deposit of additional
monies in the Principal Account, and/or sell Securities and
credit the proceeds thereof to the Deferred Sales Charge
Account, provided, however, that the aggregate amount
advanced by the Trustee at any time for payment of the
deferred sales charge shall not exceed $15,000. Such
direction shall, if the Trustee is directed to sell a
Security, identify the Security to be sold and include
instructions as to the execution of such sale. In the
absence of such direction by the Depositor, the Trustee
shall sell Securities sufficient to pay the deferred sales
charge (and any unreimbursed advance then outstanding) in
full, and shall select Securities to be sold in such manner
as will maintain (to the extent practicable) the relative
proportion of number of shares of each Security then held.
The proceeds of such sales, less any amounts paid to the
Trustee in reimbursement of its advances, shall be credited
to the Deferred Sales Charge Account. If a Unit holder
redeems Units prior to full payment of the deferred sales
charge, the Trustee shall, if so provided in the related
Prospectus, on the Redemption Date, withhold from the
Redemption Price payable to such Unit holder an amount equal
to the unpaid portion of the deferred sales charge and
distribute such amount to the Deferred Sales Charge Account.
If the Trust is terminated for reasons other than that set
forth in Section 6.01(g), the Trustee shall, if so provided
in the related Prospectus, on the termination of the Trust,
withhold from the proceeds payable to Unit holders an amount
equal to the unpaid portion of the deferred sales charge and
distribute such amount to the Deferred Sales Charge Account.
If the Trust is terminated pursuant to Section 6.01(g), the
Trustee shall not withhold from the proceeds payable to Unit
holders any amounts of unpaid deferred sales charges. If
pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof, the Depositor shall
purchase a Unit tendered for redemption prior to the payment
in full of the deferred sales charge due on the tendered
Unit, the Depositor shall pay to the Unit holder the amount
specified under Section 5.02 less the unpaid portion of the
deferred sales charge. All advances made by the Trustee
pursuant to this Section shall be secured by a lien on the
Trust prior to the interest of the Unit holders."
(r) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections
3.16 and 4.05 of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust, so
long as Nike Securities L.P. is acting as Depositor, the Trustee
shall have no power to remove the Portfolio Supervisor.
(s) The phrase "of $0.30 per 1,000 Units" in the first
sentence of Section 4.03 shall be amended to read "as set forth
in the Prospectus per Unit".
(t) Section 5.01 of the Standard Terms and Conditions of
Trust shall be amended as follows:
(i) The third sentence of the first paragraph of
Section 5.01 shall be amended by adding the following at the
conclusion thereof: ", plus (d) amounts representing
organizational expenses paid from the Trust less amounts
representing accrued organizational expenses of the Trust,
plus (e) all other assets of the Trust."
(ii) The following shall be added at the end of the
first paragraph of Section 5.01:
Until the Depositor has informed the Trustee that
there will be no further deposits of Additional
Securities pursuant to section 2.01(b), the Depositor
shall provide the Trustee with written estimates of (i)
the total organizational expenses to be borne by the
Trust pursuant to Section 3.01 and (ii) the total
number of Units to be issued in connection with the
initial deposit and all anticipated deposits of
additional Securities. For purposes of calculating the
Trust Fund Evaluation and Unit Value, the Trustee shall
treat all such anticipated expenses as having been paid
and all liabilities therefor as having been incurred,
and all Units as having been issued, in each case on
the date of the Trust Agreement, and, in connection
with each such calculation, shall take into account a
pro rata portion of such expense and liability based on
the actual number of Units issued as of the date of
such calculation. In the event the Trustee is informed
by the Depositor of a revision in its estimate of total
expenses or total Units and upon the conclusion of the
deposit of additional Securities, the Trustee shall
base calculations made thereafter on such revised
estimates or actual expenses, respectively, but such
adjustment shall not affect calculations made prior
thereto and no adjustment shall be made in respect
thereof.
(u) The first sentence of the first paragraph of Section
5.02 of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust shall be
replaced with the following:
"Any Unit evidenced by a Certificate tendered for redemption
by a Certificateholder or his duly authorized attorney or any
Unit held in uncertificated form tendered by a Holder of Units or
his duly authorized attorney by means of an appropriate request
for redemption in a form approved by the Trustee to the Trustee
at its unit investment trust office in the City of New York,
shall be paid by the Trustee on the third business day following
the day on which tender for redemption is made in proper form
(being herein called the "Redemption Date").
(v) The phrase "equal to $0.90 per 1,000 Units" in the
first sentence of Section 6.04 shall be amended to read "as set
forth in the Prospectus per Unit".
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Nike Securities L.P., United States
Trust Company of New York, Securities Evaluation Service, Inc.
and First Trust Advisors L.P. have each caused this Trust
Agreement to be executed and the respective corporate seal to be
hereto affixed and attested (if applicable) by authorized
officers; all as of the day, month and year first above written.
