reorganization, spin-off, split-off or split-up by the issuer of
stock or securities held in the Trust, the Trustee shall take
-4-
such action or refrain from taking any action, as appropriate,
so as to insure that the securities are voted as closely as
possible in the same manner and in the same general proportion
as are the securities held by owners other than the Trust. If
stock or securities are received by the Trustee, with or without
cash, as a result of any merger, reorganization, spin-off,

forth in the prospectus for a Trust.

K. Section 3.14 shall be added as follows:
Section 3.14. Deferred Sales Charge. If the prospectus
for a Trust specifies a Deferred Sales Charge, the Trustee
shall, on the dates specified in and as permitted by the
prospectus, withdraw from the Income Account if such account is
designated in the prospectus as the source of the payments of
the Deferred Sales Charge, or to the extent funds are not
available in that account or if such account is not so
designated, from the Principal Account, an amount per Unit
specified in the prospectus and credit such amount to a special,
non-Trust account maintained at the Trustee out of which the
Deferred Sales Charge will be distributed to the Depositor. If
the Income Account is not designated as the source of the
Deferred Sales Charge payment or if the balances in the Income
and Principal Accounts are insufficient to make any such
withdrawal, the Trustee shall, as directed by the Depositor,
either advance funds, if so agreed to by the Trustee, in an
amount equal to the proposed withdrawal and be entitled to
reimbursement of such advance upon the deposit of additional
monies in the Income Account or the Principal Account, sell
Securities and credit the proceeds thereof to such special
Depositor's account or credit Securities in kind to such special
Depositor's Account. Such directions shall identify the
Securities, if any, to be sold or distributed in kind and shall
contain, if the Trustee is directed by the Depositor to sell a
Security, instructions as to execution of such sales. If a Unit
Holder redeems Units prior to full payment of the Deferred Sales
Charge, the Trustee shall, if so provided in the prospectus, on
the Redemption Date, withhold from the Redemption Price payment
to such Unit Holder an amount equal to the unpaid portion of the
Deferred Sales Charge and distribute such amount to such special
Depositor's account or, if the Depositor shall purchase such
Unit pursuant to the terms of Section 5.02 hereof, the Depositor
shall pay the Redemption Price for such Unit less the unpaid
portion of the Deferred Sales Charge. The Depositor may at any
time instruct the Trustee to distribute to the Depositor cash or
Securities previously credited to the special Depositor's
account.
L. The following new Section 3.15 is added:
Section 3.15. Foreign Exchange Transactions; Reclaiming
Foreign Taxes. (a) For any Trust holding Securities denominated
in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the Depositor shall
direct the Trustee with respect to the circumstances under which
foreign exchange transactions are to be entered into and
calculations under this Indenture are to be made, in order to
convert amounts receivable in respect of the Securities in
foreign currencies into U.S. dollars.
-6-
(b) The Trustee shall take such action as the Sponsor
shall direct or, if not so directed, use reasonable efforts to
reclaim or recoup any amounts of non-U.S. tax paid by the Trust
or withheld from Income received by the Trust to which the Trust
may be entitled as a refund.
M. The following paragraphs are inserted after the first
paragraph in Section 4.01:
"With respect to foreign securities, each security
listed on a securities exchange will be valued at the
last closing sale price on the relevant stock exchange
or if no such price exists at the closing offer price
thereof.
If the Trust holds securities denominated in a
currency other than U.S. dollars, the evaluations
shall be converted to U.S. dollars based, during the
initial offering period, on the offering side of the
relevant currency exchange rate, and subsequent to
such period, on the bid side of the relevant exchange
rate, including the cost of a forward foreign exchange
contract in the relevant currency to correspond to the
Trustee's settlement requirement for redemption
requests as quoted to the Trustee by one or more banks
designated by the Depositor, unless the Security is in
the form of an American depository share or receipt,
in which case the evaluations shall be based upon the
U.S. dollar prices in the market for American
depository shares or receipts (unless the Trustee
deems such prices inappropriate as a basis for
valuation)."
