With respect to the PPLUS Trust Series JPM-1 distribution on June 16, 2008, the amount of interest to be paid by the Trust was calculated incorrectly. As such, on September 25, 2008, BNY corrected this error and a revised 8-K was filed on October 6, 2008.
With respect to the PreferredPLUS Trust Series GEC-1, the September 15, 2008 Exhibit 99.1 within the Form 8-K incorrectly referenced the March 17, 2008 distribution date. On March 5, 2009 a revised 8-K was filed to reflect the correct distribution date.
