PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS DATED APRIL 26, 2013 SUBJECT TO COMPLETION ADVISORS CORPORATE TRUST--NAVELLIER/DIAL HIGH INCOME OPPORTUNITIES PORTFOLIO, SERIES 75 (ADVISORS DISCIPLINED TRUST 1058) A portfolio of investment grade corporate bonds seeking current income and capital preservation PROSPECTUS ____________, 2013 [LOGO] As with any investment, the Securities and Exchange Commission has not approved AAM or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of ADVISORS this prospectus. Any contrary ASSET MANAGEMENT representation is a criminal offense. ------------------ INVESTMENT SUMMARY ------------------ INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE The trust seeks to provide current interest income and capital preservation. There is no assurance the trust will achieve its objective. PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGY The trust seeks to provide high current interest income and capital preservation by investing in a portfolio consisting primarily of interest- bearing corporate debt obligations rated investment grade quality as of the trust's inception. The portfolio was selected by Navellier & Associates, Inc. (the "Portfolio Consultant"). Dial Capital Management, LLC ("Dial") provided assistance to the Portfolio Consultant in connection with selection of the portfolio. The Portfolio Consultant selected the bonds in the portfolio after detailed credit analysis in an effort to create a portfolio that it believes can maintain adequate cash flow and good asset liability balances. Investment grade corporate bonds are rated BBB- or higher by Standard & Poor's or Baa3 or higher by Moody's Investor Service. Certain corporate bonds held by the trust may be rated as investment grade by only one credit rating organization and either unrated or below investment grade by the other. These ratings are based upon an evaluation by a credit rating organization of the corporation's credit history and ability to repay obligations. An investment grade rating generally signifies that a credit rating agency considers the current quality of a bond to be sufficient to provide reasonable assurance of the issuer's ability to meet its obligation to bondholders. PRINCIPAL RISKS As with all investments, you can lose money by investing in this trust. The trust also might not perform as well as you expect. This can happen for reasons such as these: * BOND PRICES WILL FLUCTUATE. The value of your investment may fall over time. * THE VALUE OF THE BONDS WILL GENERALLY FALL IF INTEREST RATES, IN GENERAL, RISE. No one can predict whether interest rates will rise or fall in the future. * A BOND ISSUER MAY BE UNABLE TO MAKE INTEREST AND/OR PRINCIPAL PAYMENT IN THE FUTURE. * THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF AN ISSUER MAY WORSEN OR ITS CREDIT RATINGS MAY DROP, RESULTING IN A REDUCTION IN THE VALUE OF YOUR UNITS. This may occur at any point in time, including during the primary offering period. * A BOND ISSUER MIGHT PREPAY OR "CALL" A BOND BEFORE ITS STATED MATURITY. If this happens, the trust will distribute the principal to you but future interest distributions will fall. A bond's call price could be less than the price the trust paid for the bond. If enough bonds are called, the trust could terminate earlier than expected. * THE TRUST IS CONSIDERED TO BE CONCENTRATED IN BONDS ISSUED BY COMPANIES IN THE FINANCIALS SECTOR. Negative developments in this sector will affect the value of your investment more than would be the case in a more diversified investment. * WE<F1>* DO NOT ACTIVELY MANAGE THE PORTFOLIO. Except in limited circumstances, the trust will hold, and may continue to buy, the same bonds even if the market value declines. -------------------- <F1>* "AAM," "we" and related terms mean Advisors Asset Management, Inc., the trust sponsor, unless the context clearly suggests otherwise. 2 Investment Summary WHO SHOULD INVEST You should consider this investment if you want: * to own securities representing interests in corporate bonds in a single investment. * the potential to receive monthly distributions of income with capital preservation potential. You should not consider this investment if you: * are uncomfortable with the risks of an unmanaged investment in corporate bonds. * want capital appreciation. ------------------------------------------------------------ ESSENTIAL INFORMATION --------------------- PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF SECURITIES PER UNIT AT INCEPTION* $________ PUBLIC OFFERING PRICE PER UNIT AT INCEPTION* $1,000.00 INCEPTION DATE ____________, 2013 ESTIMATED CURRENT RETURN* _____% ESTIMATED LONG-TERM RETURN* _____% ESTIMATED NET ANNUAL INTEREST INCOME PER UNIT* $_____ ESTIMATED INITIAL DISTRIBUTION PER UNIT* $_____ ESTIMATED NORMAL MONTHLY DISTRIBUTION PER UNIT* $_____ WEIGHTED AVERAGE MATURITY OF SECURITIES* _____ years WEIGHTED AVERAGE MODIFIED DURATION OF SECURITIES* _____ years DISTRIBUTION DATES 25th day of each month RECORD DATES 10th day of each month INITIAL DISTRIBUTION DATE __________ 25, 2013 INITIAL RECORD DATE __________ 10, 2013 CUSIP NUMBER Standard Accounts _________ Fee Based Accounts _________ TICKER SYMBOL ______ MINIMUM INVESTMENT 1 unit ------------------------------------------------------------ <FN> * As of ____________, 2013 and may vary thereafter. </FN> FEES AND EXPENSES The amounts below are estimates of the direct and indirect expenses that you may incur based on the initial unit price.

Investment Summary 3 ILLUSTRATION OF SALES FEE DISCOUNTS We offer a variety of ways for you to reduce the sales fee you pay when you buy units. The table below shows what the public offering price per unit, estimated current return and estimated long-term return would have been as of the close of business on the business day prior to the trust's inception date based on certain sales fee levels. Please refer to "Understanding Your Investment--How to Buy Units--Reducing Your Sales Fee" for details on the applicability of and guidelines associated with all sales fee discounts. Please refer to "Understanding Your Investment--How Your Trust Works--Estimated Current and Long-Term Returns" for more information about estimated current and long-term returns. The public offering price per unit and interest income received by the trust will vary over time for various reasons. There is no assurance that the estimated current returns or estimated long-term returns will be realized in the future.

Contracts to acquire the securities were entered into during the period from ____________, 2013 to ____________, 2013 and have expected settlement dates during the period from ____________, 2013 to ____________, 2013 (2) The bonds may be subject to redemption without premium at any time pursuant to extraordinary optional or mandatory redemptions if certain events occur. (3) This is the year in which each bond is initially or currently callable and the call price for that year. Each bond continues to be callable at declining prices thereafter (but not below par value) except for original issue discount bonds which are redeemable at prices based on the issue price plus the amount of original issue discount accreted to redemption date plus, if applicable, some premium, the amount of which will decline in subsequent years. "S.F." indicates a sinking fund is established with respect to an issue of bonds. The bonds may also be subject to redemption without premium at any time pursuant to extraordinary optional or mandatory redemptions if certain events occur. (4) The cost of each security is based on the current offering side evaluation as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange on the business day prior to the trust's inception date. During the initial offering period, evaluations of securities are made on the basis of current offering side evaluations of the securities. The aggregate offering price is greater than the aggregate bid price of the securities, which is the basis on which redemption prices will be determined for purposes of redemption of units after the initial offering period. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 820, "Fair Value Measurements", the trust's investments are classified as Level 2, which refers to security prices determined using significant observable inputs when quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are not available. Observable inputs are inputs such as quoted prices for similar securities, quoted prices for identical securities in markets that are not active, and other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. The cost of the securities to the sponsor and the sponsor's profit or (loss) (which is the difference between the cost of the securities to the sponsor and the cost of the securities to the trust) are $__________ and $__________, respectively. (5) This security has a "make whole" call option and is redeemable in whole or in part at any time at the option of the issuer at a redemption price that is generally equal to the sum of the principal amount of the security, a "make whole" amount, and any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. The "make whole" amount is generally equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the aggregate present value as of the date of redemption of principal being redeemed and the amount of interest (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption) that would have been payable if redemption had not been made, determined by discounting the remaining principal and interest at a specified rate (which varies from bond to bond and is generally equal to an average of yields on U.S. Treasury obligations with maturities corresponding to the remaining life of the bond plus a premium rate) from the dates on which the principal and interest would have been payable if the redemption had not been made, over (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the bonds being redeemed. (6) Any bond marked with this note has been purchased on a "when, as and if issued" or "delayed delivery" basis. Delivery of these bonds is expected to take place at various dates after the first settlement date of the trust, which is normally three business days following the trust's inception date. Interest on these bonds begins accruing to the benefit of unitholders on the related delivery dates for the bonds. (7) Any bond marked with this note was issued at an original issue discount. (8) This is a bond issued by a foreign company. Corporate bonds comprise approximately 100.00% of the investments in the trust, broken down by country of organization as set forth below: (9) This bond is subject to potential interest rate adjustments, not to exceed 2.00 percentage points above the bond's original interest rate, if either Moody's Investor Service or Standard & Poor's (or, in certain limited circumstances, another ratings service) downgrades their rating for this bond (or upgrades the rating after such a downgrade). The interest rate set forth here represents the current interest rate applicable to the bond. (10) The interest rate payable on this bond was adjusted in the past by a one- time increase due to a ratings downgrade related to a corporate acquisition. Any future credit rating improvements may result in a decrease in the interest rate payable on this bond. The interest rate set forth here represents the current interest rate applicable to the bond. 6 Investment Summary ----------------------------- UNDERSTANDING YOUR INVESTMENT ----------------------------- HOW TO BUY UNITS You can buy units of a trust on any business day the New York Stock Exchange is open by contacting your financial professional. Unit prices are available daily on the Internet at WWW.AAMPORTFOLIOS.COM. The public offering price of units includes: * the net asset value per unit plus * cash to pay organization costs plus * the sales fee plus * accrued interest, if any. The "net asset value per unit" is the value of the securities, cash and other assets in a trust reduced by the liabilities of a trust divided by the total units outstanding. We often refer to the public offering price of units as the "offer price" or "purchase price." The offer price will be effective for all orders received prior to the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). If we receive your order prior to the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange or authorized financial professionals receive your order prior to that time and properly transmit the order to us by the time that we designate, then you will receive the price computed on the date of receipt. If we receive your order after the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, if authorized financial professionals receive your order after that time or if orders are received by such persons and are not transmitted to us by the time that we designate, then you will receive the price computed on the date of the next determined offer price provided that your order is received in a timely manner on that date. It is the responsibility of the authorized financial professional to transmit the orders that they receive to us in a timely manner. Certain broker-dealers may charge a transaction or other fee for processing unit purchase orders. ORGANIZATION COSTS. During the initial offering period, part of the value of the units represents an amount of cash deposited to pay the costs of creating your trust. These costs include the costs of preparing the registration statement and legal documents, federal and state registration fees, the Portfolio Consultant's security selection fee, the initial fees and expenses of the trustee and the initial audit. Your trust will reimburse us for these costs at the end of the initial offering period or after six months, if earlier. The value of your units will decline when the trust pays these costs. ACCRUED INTEREST. Accrued interest represents unpaid interest on a security from the last day it paid interest. Accrued interest on the trust units consists of two elements. The first element arises as a result of accrued interest which is the accumulation of unpaid interest on bonds in the trust from the last day on which interest was paid on the bonds. Interest on the bonds is generally paid semi-annually, although the trust accrues such interest daily. Because your trust always has an amount of interest earned but not yet collected, the public offering price of units will have added to it the proportionate share of accrued interest to the date of settlement. The second element of accrued interest arises because of the structure of the trust's interest account. The trustee has no cash for distribution to unitholders until it receives interest payments on the bonds in the trust and may be required to advance its own funds to make trust interest distributions. As a result, interest account balances are established to limit the need for the trustee to advance funds in connection with such interest distributions. If Understanding Your Investment 7 you sell or redeem your units you will be entitled to receive your proportionate share of the accrued interest from the purchaser of your units. VALUE OF THE SECURITIES. We determine the value of the securities as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on each day that exchange is open. We generally determine the value of securities during the initial offering period based on the aggregate offering side evaluations of the securities determined (a) on the basis of current offering prices of the securities, (b) if offering prices are not available for any particular security, on the basis of current offering prices for comparable securities, (c) by determining the value of securities on the offer side of the market by appraisal, or (d) by any combination of the above. After the initial offering period ends, we generally determine the value of the securities as described in the preceding sentence based on the bid side evaluations rather than the offering side evaluations. The offering side price generally represents the price at which investors in the market are willing to sell a security and the bid side evaluation generally represents the price that investors in the market are willing to pay to buy a security. The bid side evaluation is lower than the offering side evaluation. As a result of this pricing method, unitholders should expect a decrease in the net asset value per unit on the day following the end of the initial offering period equal to the difference between the current offering side evaluation and bid side evaluation of the securities. Capelogic, Inc., an independent pricing service, determined the initial prices of the securities shown under "Portfolio" in this prospectus as described above at the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on the business day before the date of this prospectus. On the first day we sell units we will compute the unit price as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange or the time the registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission becomes effective, if later. SALES FEE. You pay a fee in connection with purchasing units. We refer to this fee as the "sales fee." The maximum sales fee equals 3.00% of the public offering price per unit at the time of purchase. You pay the initial sales fee at the time you buy units. MINIMUM PURCHASE. The minimum amount you can purchase of the trust appears on page 3 under "Essential Information", but such amounts may vary depending on your selling firm. REDUCING YOUR SALES FEE. We offer a variety of ways for you to reduce the fee you pay. It is your financial professional's responsibility to alert us of any discount when you order units. Except as expressly provided herein, you may not combine discounts. Large Purchases. You can reduce your sales fee by increasing the size of your investment: IF YOU PURCHASE: YOUR FEE WILL BE: ------------------------------------------ Less than 100 units 3.00% 100 - 249 units 2.75 250 - 499 units 2.50 500 - 999 units 2.25 1,000 - 4,999 units 2.00 5,000 - 9,999 units 1.75 10,000 or more units 1.50 We apply these fees as a percent of the public offering price per unit at the time of purchase. We also apply the different purchase levels on a dollar basis using a $1,000 unit equivalent. For example, if you invest between $250,000 and 8 Understanding Your Investment $499,999, your fee is 2.50% of your public offering price per unit. You aggregate initial offering period unit orders submitted by the same person for units of any of the trusts we sponsor on any single day from any one broker-dealer to qualify for a purchase level. If you purchase initial offering period units that qualify for the fee account or exchange discount described below and also purchase additional initial offering period units on a single day from the same broker-dealer that do not qualify for the fee account or exchange discount, you aggregate all initial offering period units purchased for purposes of determining the applicable breakpoint level in the table above on the additional units, but such additional units will not qualify for the fee account or exchange discount described below. Secondary market unit purchases are not aggregated with initial offering period unit purchases for purposes of determining the applicable breakpoint level. You can also include these orders as your own for purposes of this aggregation: * orders submitted by your spouse or children (including step-children) under 21 years of age living in the same household and * orders submitted by your trust estate or fiduciary accounts. The discounts described above apply only to initial offering period purchases. Fee Accounts. Investors may purchase units through registered investment advisers, certified financial planners or registered broker-dealers who in each case either charge investor accounts ("Fee Accounts") periodic fees for brokerage services, financial planning, investment advisory or asset management services, or provide such services in connection with an investment account for which a comprehensive "wrap fee" charge ("Wrap Fee") is imposed. You should consult your financial professional to determine whether you can benefit from these accounts. If units of the trust are purchased for a Fee Account and the units are subject to a Wrap Fee in such Fee Account (i.e., the trust is "Wrap Fee Eligible"), then investors may be eligible to purchase units of the trust in these Fee Accounts at the public offering price less the regular underwriter or dealer concession. This discount applies during the initial offering period and in the secondary market. Certain Fee Account investors may be assessed transaction or other fees on the purchase and/or redemption of units by their broker-dealer or other processing organizations for providing certain transaction or account activities. We reserve the right to limit or deny purchases of units in Fee Accounts by investors or selling firms whose frequent trading activity is determined to be detrimental to the trust. Employees. We waive the transactional sales fee for purchases made by officers, directors and employees (and immediate family members) of the sponsor and its affiliates. We also waive a portion of the sales fee for purchases made by officers, directors and employees (and immediate family members) of selling firms. These purchases are made at the public offering price per unit less the applicable dealer concession. Immediate family members for the purposes of this section include your spouse, children (including step-children) under the age of 21 living in the same household, and parents (including step-parents). These discounts apply to initial offering period and secondary market purchases. All employee discounts are subject to the policies of the related selling firm, including but not limited to, Understanding Your Investment 9 householding policies or limitations. Only officers, directors and employees (and their immediate family members) of selling firms that allow such persons to participate in this employee discount program are eligible for the discount. Exchange Option. We waive a portion of the sales fee on units of the trust offered in this prospectus if you buy your units with redemption or termination proceeds from any unit investment trusts (regardless of sponsor). The discounted sales fee for these transactions is 2.50% of the public offering price per unit at the time of purchase. However, if you use redemption or termination proceeds to purchase 250 or more units of the trust, the maximum sales fee on your units will be limited to the maximum sales fee for the applicable amount invested in the table under "Large Purchases" above. To qualify for this discount, the termination or redemption proceeds used to purchase units of the trust offered in this prospectus must be derived from a transaction that occurred within 30 calendar days of your purchase of units of the trust offered in this prospectus. In addition, the discount will only be available for investors that utilize the same broker-dealer (or a different broker-dealer with appropriate notification) for both the unit purchase and the transaction resulting in the receipt of the termination or redemption proceeds used for the unit purchase. You may be required to provide appropriate documentation or other information to your broker-dealer to evidence your eligibility for this sales fee discount. Please note that if you purchase units of a trust in this manner using redemption proceeds from trusts which assess the amount of any remaining deferred sales fee at redemption, you should be aware that any deferred sales fee remaining on these units will be deducted from those redemption proceeds. These discounts apply only to initial offering period purchases. RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS. The portfolio may be suitable for purchase in tax- advantaged retirement accounts. You should contact your financial professional about the accounts offered and any additional fees imposed. HOW TO SELL YOUR UNITS You can sell or redeem your units on any business day the New York Stock Exchange is open by contacting your financial professional. Unit prices are available daily on the Internet at WWW.AAMPORTFOLIOS.COM or through your financial professional. The sale and redemption price of units is equal to the net asset value per unit, provided that you will not pay organization costs if you sell or redeem units during the initial offering period. The sale and redemption price is sometimes referred to as the "liquidation price". Certain broker-dealers may charge a transaction or other fee for processing unit redemption or sale requests. SELLING UNITS. We may maintain a secondary market for units. This means that if you want to sell your units, we may buy them at the current net asset value, provided that you will not pay organization costs if you sell units during the initial offering period. We may then resell the units to other investors at the public offering price or redeem them for the redemption price. Our secondary market repurchase price is the same as the redemption price. Certain broker-dealers might also maintain a secondary market in units. You should contact your financial professional for current repurchase prices to determine the best price available. We may discontinue our secondary market at any time without notice. Even if we do 10 Understanding Your Investment not make a market, you will be able to redeem your units with the trustee on any business day for the current redemption price. REDEEMING UNITS. You may also redeem your units directly with the trustee, The Bank of New York Mellon, on any day the New York Stock Exchange is open. The redemption price that you will receive for units is equal to the net asset value per unit, provided that you will not pay organization costs if you redeem units during the initial offering period. You will receive the net asset value for a particular day if the trustee receives your completed redemption request prior to the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Redemption requests received by authorized financial professionals prior to the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange that are properly transmitted to the trustee by the time designated by the trustee, are priced based on the date of receipt. Redemption requests received by the trustee after the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, redemption requests received by authorized financial professionals after that time or redemption requests received by such persons that are not transmitted to the trustee until after the time designated by the trustee, are priced based on the date of the next determined redemption price provided they are received in a timely manner by the trustee on such date. It is the responsibility of authorized financial professionals to transmit redemption requests received by them to the trustee so they will be received in a timely manner. If your request is not received in a timely manner or is incomplete in any way, you will receive the next net asset value computed after the trustee receives your completed request. If you redeem your units, the trustee will generally send you a payment for your units no later than seven days after it receives all necessary documentation (this will usually only take three business days). The only time the trustee can delay your payment is if the New York Stock Exchange is closed (other than weekends or holidays), the Securities and Exchange Commission determines that trading on that exchange is restricted or an emergency exists making sale or evaluation of the securities not reasonably practicable, and for any other period that the Securities and Exchange Commission permits. EXCHANGE OPTION. You may be able to exchange your units for units of our other unit trusts at a reduced sales fee. You can contact your financial professional for more information about trusts currently available for exchanges. Before you exchange units, you should read the prospectus carefully and understand the risks and fees. You should then discuss this option with your financial professional to determine whether your investment goals have changed, whether current trusts suit you and to discuss tax consequences. We may discontinue this option upon sixty days notice. DISTRIBUTIONS MONTHLY DISTRIBUTIONS. Your trust generally pays interest from its net investment income (pro-rated on an annual basis) along with any available principal paid on the securities on each monthly distribution date to unitholders of record on the preceding record date. The record and distribution dates are shown under "Essential Information" in the "Investment Summary" section of this prospectus. In some cases, your trust might pay a special distribution if it holds an excessive amount of cash pending distribution. The amount of your distributions will vary from time to time as interest and principal payments change or trust expenses change. Understanding Your Investment 11 Interest received by your trust, including that part of the proceeds of any disposition of bonds which represents accrued interest, is credited by the trustee to your trust's "interest account". Other receipts are credited to the "principal account". After deduction of amounts sufficient to reimburse the trustee, without interest, for any amounts advanced and paid to the sponsor as the unitholder of record as of the first settlement date, interest received will be distributed on each distribution date to unitholders of record as of the preceding record date. All distributions will be net of estimated expenses. Funds in the principal account will be distributed on each distribution date to unitholders of record as of the preceding record date provided that the amount available for distribution therein shall equal at least $1.00 per unit. Because interest payments are not received by your trust at a constant rate throughout the year and the interest rates on certain bonds in the trust may adjust periodically, interest distributions may be more or less than the amount credited to the interest account as of the record date. For the purpose of minimizing fluctuations in interest distributions, the trustee is authorized to advance amounts necessary to provide interest distributions of approximately equal amounts. The trustee is reimbursed for these advances from funds in the interest account on the next record date. Investors who purchase units between a record date and a distribution date will receive their first distribution on the second distribution date after the purchase. ESTIMATED DISTRIBUTIONS. The estimated net annual interest income per unit, estimated initial distribution per unit and estimated normal monthly distribution per unit as of the close of business the day before your trust's inception date are shown under "Essential Information" in the "Investment Summary" section of this prospectus. We generally base these amounts on the estimated cash flows of the bonds per unit based on the current interest rate applicable to the bonds. Since certain of the bonds may be subject to potential interest rate adjustments related to changes in the bonds' ratings provided by certain ratings services, estimated distributions may fluctuate over time and actual distributions may vary from estimated amounts. The actual distributions that you receive will vary from these estimates with changes in expenses, interest rates (including interest rate adjustments related to changes in the bonds' ratings as provided by certain ratings services) and maturity, call, default or sale of bonds. You may request the estimated cash flows from the sponsor. The estimated cash flows are computed based on factors described under "Understanding Your Investment--How Your Trust Works--Estimated Current and Long-Term Returns". REPORTS. The trustee or your financial professional will make available to you a statement showing income and other receipts of your trust for each distribution. Each year the trustee or your financial professional will also provide an annual report on your trust's activity and certain tax information. You can request copies of security evaluations to enable you to complete your tax forms and audited financial statements for your trust, if available. INVESTMENT RISKS All investments involve risk. This section describes the main risks that can impact the value of the securities in your portfolio. You should understand these risks before you invest. If the value of the securities falls, the value of your units will also fall. We cannot guarantee that your trust will achieve its objective or that 12 Understanding Your Investment your investment return will be positive over any period. MARKET RISK is the risk that the value of the securities in your trust will fluctuate. This could cause the value of your units to fall below your original purchase price or below the principal value. Market value fluctuates in response to various factors. These can include changes in interest rates, inflation, the financial condition of a security's issuer, perceptions of the issuer, or ratings on a security. Even though we supervise your portfolio, you should remember that we do not manage your portfolio. Your trust will not sell a security solely because the market value falls as is possible in a managed fund. INTEREST RATE RISK is the risk that the value of securities will fall if interest rates, in general, increase. The securities in your trust typically fall in value when interest rates, in general, rise and rise in value when interest rates, in general, fall. Securities with longer periods before maturity are often more sensitive to general interest rate changes. Certain bonds in the portfolio may be subject to interest rate adjustments if either Moody's Investor Services or Standard & Poor's (or, in certain limited circumstances, another ratings service) downgrades the rating for such bond (or upgrades the rating after such a downgrade). The interest rates payable on certain bonds in the portfolio may have already been increased due to past ratings downgrades. Any future credit rating improvements on such bonds may result in decreases to the interest rates payable on such bonds and, consequently, may adversely affect both the income you receive from the securities in your trust and the value of your units. On the other hand, increases in a bond's interest rate related to decreases in such bond's credit rating may place additional financial strain on the bond's issuer which could result in further decreases in financial condition and further credit rating decreases. Additionally, an increase in a bond's interest rate may increase the risk that the bond's issuer will prepay or "call" the bond before its stated maturity. CREDIT RISK is the risk that a security's issuer or insurer is unable to meet its obligation to pay principal or interest on the security. CALL RISK is the risk that the issuer prepays or "calls" a bond before its stated maturity. An issuer might call a bond if interest rates, in general fall and the bond pays a higher interest rate or if it no longer needs the money for the original purpose. If an issuer calls a bond, your trust will distribute the principal to you but your future interest distributions will fall. You might not be able to reinvest this principal at as high a yield. A bond's call price could be less than the price your trust paid for the bond and could be below the bond's par value. This means that you could receive less than the amount you paid for your units. If enough bonds in your trust are called, your trust could terminate early. Some or all of the bonds may also be subject to extraordinary optional or mandatory redemptions if certain events occur, such as certain changes in tax laws, the substantial damage or destruction by fire or other casualty of the project for which the proceeds of the bonds were used, and various other events. The call provisions are described in general terms in the "Portfolio". BOND QUALITY RISK is the risk that a bond will fall in value if a rating agency decreases the bond's rating. CONCENTRATION RISK is the risk that the value of your trust is more susceptible to fluctuations Understanding Your Investment 13 based on factors that impact a particular industry because the portfolio concentrates in companies within that industry. A portfolio "concentrates" in an industry when securities in a particular industry make up 25% or more of the portfolio. The trust invests significantly in bonds issued by companies in the FINANCIALS SECTOR. Any negative impact on this industry will have a greater impact on the value of units than on a portfolio diversified over several industries. You should understand the risks of this industry before you invest. Banks and their holding companies are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession; volatile interest rates; portfolio concentrations in geographic markets and in commercial and residential real estate loans; and competition from new entrants in their fields of business. In addition, banks and their holding companies are extensively regulated at both the federal and state level and may be adversely affected by increased regulations. Banks will face increased competition from nontraditional lending sources as regulatory changes, such as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley financial services overhaul legislation, permit new entrants to offer various financial products. Technological advances such as the Internet allow these nontraditional lending sources to cut overhead and permit the more efficient use of customer data. Banks are already facing tremendous pressure from mutual funds, brokerage firms and other financial service providers in the competition to furnish services that were traditionally offered by banks. Companies engaged in investment management and broker-dealer activities are subject to volatility in their earnings and share prices that often exceeds the volatility of the equity market in general. Adverse changes in the direction of the stock market, investor confidence, equity transaction volume, the level and direction of interest rates and the outlook of emerging markets could adversely affect the financial stability, as well as the stock prices, of these companies. Additionally, competitive pressures, including increased competition with new and existing competitors, the ongoing commoditization of traditional businesses and the need for increased capital expenditures on new technology could adversely impact the profit margins of companies in the investment management and brokerage industries. Companies involved in investment management and broker-dealer activities are also subject to extensive regulation by government agencies and self-regulatory organizations, and changes in laws, regulations or rules, or in the interpretation of such laws, regulations and rules could adversely affect the stock prices of such companies. Companies involved in the insurance, reinsurance and risk management industry underwrite, sell or distribute property, casualty and business insurance. Many factors affect insurance, reinsurance and risk management company profits, including interest rate movements, the imposition of premium rate caps, a misapprehension of the risks involved in given underwritings, competition and pressure to compete globally, weather catastrophes or other disasters and the effects of client mergers. Already extensively regulated, insurance companies' profits may be adversely affected by increased government regulations or tax law changes. Financial services companies have faced significant difficulty recently related to the downturn in the housing and mortgage lending markets, corresponding declines in the value of 14 Understanding Your Investment mortgage-backed securities and the resulting impact on all areas of the financial services industry and the broader economy. These difficulties have given rise to considerable uncertainty regarding the global economy and financial services companies, in particular. The downturn has also led to considerable write-downs in the values of many assets held by financial services companies and a tightening of credit markets that has been marked by a general unwillingness of many entities to extend credit. These factors have caused a significant need for many financial services companies to raise capital to meet obligations and to satisfy regulatory and contractual capital requirements. Many well-established financial services companies have been forced to seek additional capital through issuances of new preferred or common equity and certain companies have been forced to agree to be acquired by other companies (or sell some or all of their assets to other companies). In some cases government assistance, guarantees or direct participation in investments or acquisitions have been necessary to facilitate these transactions. In addition, concerns regarding these issues and their potential negative impact to the U.S. and global economies have resulted in extreme volatility in securities prices and uncertain market conditions. In response to these issues, government authorities in the U.S. and other countries have initiated and may continue to engage in administrative and legislative action intended to address both short- and long-term difficulties facing the housing and mortgage lending markets, mortgage backed securities, the financial services industry and the broader economy. These government actions may include, but are not limited to, restrictions on investment activities; increased oversight, regulation and involvement in financial services company practices; adjustments to capital requirements; the acquisition of interests in and the extension of credit to private entities; and increased investigation efforts into the actions of companies and individuals in the financial service industry. No one can predict any action that might be taken or the effect any action or inaction will have. It is possible that any actions taken by government authorities will not address or help improve the state of these difficulties as intended. No one can predict the impact that the recent difficulties will have on the economy, generally or financial services companies. The recent difficulties and corresponding government action or inaction may have far reaching consequences and your investment may be adversely affected by such developments. LIQUIDITY RISK is the risk that the value of a security will fall if trading in the security is limited or absent. No one can guarantee that a liquid trading market will exist for any security because these securities generally trade in the over-the-counter market (they are not listed on a securities exchange). LITIGATION AND LEGISLATION RISK is the risk that future litigation or legislation could affect the value of your trust. Litigation could challenge an issuer's authority to issue or make payments on securities. "WHEN ISSUED" AND "DELAYED DELIVERY" BONDS. "When, as and if issued" bonds are bonds that trade before they are actually issued. Bonds purchased on a "when issued" basis have not yet been issued by the issuer on the trust's inception date although such issuer has committed to issue such bonds. This means that the sponsor can only deliver them to the trust "when, as and if" the bonds are actually issued. In addition, other bonds may have been purchased by the sponsor on a "delayed delivery" basis. These Understanding Your Investment 15 bonds are expected to be delivered to the trust after the trust's first settlement date (normally three business days after the trust's inception date). Delivery of these bonds may be delayed or may not occur. Interest on these bonds does not begin accruing to your trust until the bond is delivered to the trust. You may have to adjust your tax basis of any bonds delivered after the expected delivery date. Any adjustment would reflect interest that accrued between the time you purchased your units and the delivery of the bonds to your trust. This could lower your first year estimated current return. You may experience gains or losses on these bonds from the time you purchase units even though your trust has not yet received them. ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT BONDS. Original issue discount bonds were initially issued at a price below their face (or par) value. These bonds typically pay a lower interest rate than comparable bonds that were issued at or above their par value. In a stable interest rate environment, the market value of these bonds tends to increase more slowly in early years and in greater increments as the bonds approach maturity. The issuers of these bonds may be able to call or redeem a bond before its stated maturity date and at a price less than the bond's par value. Zero coupon bonds are a type of original issue discount bond. These bonds do not pay any current interest during their life. If an investor owns this type of bond, the investor has the right to receive a final payment of the bond's par value at maturity. The price of these bonds often fluctuates greatly during periods of changing market interest rates compared to bonds that make current interest payments. The issuers of these bonds may be able to call or redeem a bond before its stated maturity date and at a price less than the bond's par value. MARKET DISCOUNT. Your trust may consist of some bonds whose current market values were below the principal value on the trust's inception date or your unit purchase date. A primary reason for the market value of such bonds being less than the principal value is that the interest rate of such bonds is at a lower rate than the current market interest rates for comparable bonds. Bonds selling at market discounts tend to increase in market value as they approach maturity. PREMIUM BONDS. Your trust may consist of some bonds whose current market values were above the principal value on the trust's inception date or your unit purchase date. A primary reason for the market value of such bonds being higher than the principal value is that the interest rate of such bonds is at a higher rate than the current market interest rates for comparable bonds. The current returns of bonds trading at a market premium are initially higher than the current returns of comparable bonds issued at currently prevailing interest rates because premium bonds tend to decrease in market value as they approach maturity when the principal value becomes payable. Because part of the purchase price is effectively returned not at maturity but through current income payments, early redemption of a premium bond at par or any other amount below the trust's purchase price will result in a reduction in yield. Redemption pursuant to call provisions generally will, and redemption pursuant to sinking fund provisions may, occur at times when the bonds have a market value that represents a premium over par or for original issue discount securities a premium over the accreted value. 16 Understanding Your Investment HOW YOUR TRUST WORKS YOUR TRUST. Your trust is a unit investment trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. We created the trust under a trust agreement between Advisors Asset Management, Inc. (as depositor/sponsor, evaluator and supervisor) and The Bank of New York Mellon (as trustee). To create your trust, we deposited securities with the trustee (or contracts to purchase securities along with an irrevocable letter of credit or other consideration to pay for the securities). In exchange, the trustee delivered units of your trust to us. Each unit represents an undivided interest in the assets of your trust. These units remain outstanding until redeemed or until your trust terminates. At the close of the New York Stock Exchange on the trusts' inception date, the number of units may be adjusted so that the public offering price per unit equals $1,000. The number of units, fractional interest of each unit in a trust, estimated interest distributions per unit and estimated current and long-term returns will increase or decrease to the extent of any adjustment. CHANGING YOUR PORTFOLIO. Your trust is not a managed fund. Unlike a managed fund, we designed your portfolio to remain relatively fixed. Your trust will generally buy and sell securities: * to pay expenses, * to issue additional units or redeem units, * in limited circumstances to protect a trust, * to make required distributions or avoid imposition of taxes on a trust, or * as permitted by the trust agreement. When your trust sells securities, the composition and diversity of the securities in the portfolio may be altered. Your trust will generally reject any offer for securities or other property in exchange for the securities in its portfolio. If your trust receives securities or other property, it will either hold the securities or property in the portfolio or sell the securities or property and distribute the proceeds. We will increase the size of your trust as we sell units. When we create additional units, we will seek to maintain a portfolio that replicates the principal amounts of the securities in the portfolio. When your trust buys securities, it may pay brokerage or other acquisition fees. You could experience a dilution of your investment because of these fees and fluctuations in security prices between the time we create units and the time your trust buys the securities. Because the trusts pay the brokerage fees associated with the creation of new units and with the sale of securities to meet redemption and exchange requests, frequent redemption and exchange activity will likely result in higher brokerage expenses. When your trust buys or sells securities, we may direct that it place orders with and pay brokerage commissions to brokers that sell units or are affiliated with your trust or the trustee. In the event of a failure to deliver any bond that has been purchased for the trust under a contract ("failed bonds"), the sponsor is authorized to purchase other bonds ("replacement bonds"). The trustee shall pay for replacement bonds out of funds held in connection with the failed bonds and will accept delivery of such bonds to make up the original principal of a trust. The replacement bonds must be purchased within 20 days after delivery of the notice of the failed contract, and the purchase price (exclusive of accrued interest) may not exceed the principal attributable to the failed bonds. Whenever a replacement bond has been acquired for a trust, Understanding Your Investment 17 the trustee shall, within five days thereafter, notify all unitholders of a trust of the acquisition of the replacement bond and shall, on the next distribution date which is more than 30 days thereafter, make a pro rata distribution of the amount, if any, by which the cost to a trust of the failed bond exceeded the cost of the replacement bond. In addition, a replacement bond must (at the time of purchase): * have a fixed maturity or disposition date comparable to that of the failed bond it replaces; * be purchased at a price that results in a yield to maturity and in a current return which is approximately equivalent to the yield to maturity and current return of the failed bond which it replaces; and * be rated at least in the category of BBB/Baa or the equivalent by a major rating organization. If the right of limited substitution described above shall not be used to acquire replacement bonds in the event of a failed contract, the sponsor will refund the sales charge attributable to such failed bonds to all unitholders of the trust, and distribute the principal attributable to such failed bonds on the next monthly distribution date which is more than 30 days thereafter. In the event a replacement bond is not acquired by the trust, the estimated net annual interest income per unit would be reduced and the estimated current and long- term returns might be lowered. ESTIMATED CURRENT AND LONG-TERM RETURNS. The estimated current return and the estimated long-term return as of the business day before a trust's inception date are shown under "Essential Information" and "Illustration of Sales Fee Discounts" in the "Investment Summary" section for your trust. Estimated current return is calculated by dividing the current estimated net annual interest income per unit based on the interest rates currently applicable to the bonds by the public offering price. The estimated net annual interest income per unit will vary with changes in the interest rates applicable to the bonds (some of which may be subject to adjustments related to changes in the bonds' ratings as provided by certain ratings services), fees and expenses of your trust and with the default, redemption, maturity, exchange or sale of bonds. The public offering price will vary with changes in the price of the bonds. Accordingly, there is no assurance that the present estimated current return will be realized in the future. Estimated long-term return is calculated using a formula which (1) takes into consideration, and determines and factors in the relative weightings of, the market values, yields (which takes into account the amortization of premiums and the accretion of discounts) and estimated retirements of the bonds and (2) takes into account the expenses and sales charge associated with units. The applicable sales charge associated with units will vary based on sales fee reductions applicable to certain unitholders. Since the interest rates, value and estimated retirements of the bonds and the expenses of your trust may change, there is no assurance that the present estimated long-term return will be realized in the future. The estimated current return and estimated long-term return are expected to differ because the calculation of estimated long-term return reflects the estimated date and amount of principal returned while the estimated current return calculation includes only net annual interest income and public offering price. In order to acquire certain bonds, it may be necessary for the sponsor or trustee to pay amounts covering accrued interest on the bonds 18 Understanding Your Investment which exceed the amounts which will be made available through cash furnished by the sponsor on the trust's inception date. This cash may exceed the interest which would accrue to the first settlement date. The trustee has agreed to pay for any amounts necessary to cover any excess and will be reimbursed when funds become available from interest payments on the related bonds. WEIGHTED AVERAGE MODIFIED DURATION. The weighted average modified duration of the securities in the trust portfolio as of the business day before the trust's inception date is shown under "Essential Information" in the "Investment Summary" section for your trust. Modified duration is a calculation that expresses the measurable change in the value of a security in response to a change in interest rates. Modified duration follows the concept that interest rates and bond prices move in opposite directions. This formula is used to determine the effect that a 1% change in interest rates might have on the price of a bond. For example, if a portfolio has a duration of 3 years then that portfolio's value is estimated to decline approximately 3% for each 1% increase in interest rates or rise approximately 3% for each 1% decrease in interest rates. Weighted average modified duration of the securities will vary with changes in the value and yield of bonds and with the default, redemption, maturity, exchange, sale or other liquidation of bonds. The weighted average modified duration of the securities shown under "Essential Information" relates only to the bonds in the trust and not to the trust itself or units. Modified duration does not account for the trust sales charge or expenses and is not intended to predict or guarantee future performance of the bonds or the trust. AMENDING THE TRUST AGREEMENT. The sponsor and the trustee can change the trust agreement without your consent to correct any provision that may be defective or to make other provisions that will not materially adversely affect your interest (as determined by the sponsor and the trustee). We cannot change this agreement to reduce your interest in your trust without your consent. Investors owning two-thirds of the units in your trust may vote to change this agreement. TERMINATION OF YOUR TRUST. Your trust will terminate upon the maturity, payment, redemption, sale or other liquidation of all of the securities in the portfolio. The trustee may terminate your trust early if the value of the trust is less than 40% of the original value of the securities in the trust at the time of deposit. At this size, the expenses of your trust may create an undue burden on your investment. Investors owning two-thirds of the units in your trust may also vote to terminate the trust early. The trustee will liquidate the trust in the event that a sufficient number of units not yet sold to the public are tendered for redemption so that the net worth of a trust would be reduced to less than 40% of the value of the securities at the time they were deposited in a trust. If this happens, we will refund any sales charge that you paid. The trustee will notify you of any termination and sell any remaining securities. The trustee will send your final distribution to you within a reasonable time following liquidation of all the securities after deducting final expenses. Your termination distribution may be less than the price you originally paid for your units. THE SPONSOR. The sponsor of the trust is Advisors Asset Management, Inc. We are a broker-dealer specializing in providing trading and support services to broker-dealers, registered representatives, investment advisers and other financial professionals.

The sponsor or an affiliate may recommend or effect transactions in the securities. This may also have an impact on the price your trust pays for the securities and the price received upon unit redemption or trust termination. The sponsor may act as agent or principal in connection with the purchase and sale of securities, including those held by the trust, and may act as a specialist market maker in the securities. The sponsor may also issue reports and make recommendations on the securities in the trust. The sponsor or an affiliate may have participated in a public offering of one or more of the securities in the trust. The sponsor, an affiliate or their employees may have a long or short position in these securities or related securities. An officer, director or employee of the sponsor or an affiliate may be an officer or director for the issuers of the securities. THE TRUSTEE. The Bank of New York Mellon is the trustee of your trust with its principal unit investment trust division offices located at 2 Hanson Place, 12th Floor, Brooklyn, New York 11217. You can contact the trustee by calling the telephone number on the back cover of this prospectus or by writing to its unit investment trust office.

The Portfolio Consultant, Navellier & Associates, Inc., is a privately owned registered investment adviser. Louis G. Navellier is the majority owner of the Portfolio Consultant which was founded in 1987 and is based in Reno, Nevada. In addition to providing portfolio consulting services to the trust, the Portfolio Consultant provides investment management services to individuals, Taft-Hartley plans, corporate pension funds, endowments, and foundations. The Portfolio Consultant is not an affiliate of the sponsor. The Portfolio Consultant selected a list of bonds to be included in the portfolio based on the criteria provided by the sponsor. The Portfolio Consultant makes no representations that the bond portfolio will achieve the investment objectives or will be profitable or suitable for any particular potential investor. The sponsor did not select the bonds for the trust. The Portfolio Consultant may use the list of bonds in its independent capacity as an investment adviser and distribute this information to various individuals and entities. The Portfolio Consultant may recommend to other clients or otherwise effect 20 Understanding Your Investment transactions in the bonds held by the trust. This may have an adverse effect on the prices of the bonds. This also may have an impact on the price the trust pays for the bonds and the price received upon unit redemptions or liquidation of the bonds. The Portfolio Consultant also issues reports and makes recommendations on securities, which may include the bonds in the trust. Neither the Portfolio Consultant nor the sponsor manages the trust. Opinions expressed by the Portfolio Consultant are not necessarily those of the sponsor, and may not actually come to pass. The Portfolio Consultant is being compensated for its portfolio consulting services, including selection of the trust portfolio. The Portfolio Consultant has a consulting agreement with Dial which covers the assistance provided for the portfolio selection for the trust among other things. Dial is not being compensated by the trust or the sponsor. Dial is a privately owned investment adviser registered in the state of California. Dial was founded in 2002 and is based in Newport Coast, California. The principals of Dial are T. Ole Dial and Mike Lanier, who combined have over 45 years experience in the credit markets. Dial provides investment management services primarily to hedge funds and high net worth individuals. Dial is not an affiliate of the sponsor. HOW WE DISTRIBUTE UNITS. We sell units to the public through broker-dealers and other firms. We pay part of the sales fee to these distribution firms when they sell units. Units will be distributed to the public by these firms at the public offering price per unit as described under "How to Buy Units". During the initial offering period, the distribution fee (the broker-dealer concession or agency commission) for broker-dealers and other firms is as follows: CONCESSION OR AGENCY TRANSACTION AMOUNT COMMISSION ------------------------------------------- Less than 100 units $22.50 100 - 249 units 20.00 250 - 499 units 17.50 500 - 999 units 15.00 1,000 - 4,999 units 13.00 5,000 - 9,999 units 11.00 10,000 or more units 9.00 We apply these concessions as a fixed dollar amount per unit net of any sales fee discount. The breakpoints will be adjusted to take into consideration purchase orders stated in dollars which cannot be completely fulfilled due to the requirement that only whole units be issued. We also apply the breakpoints in the table above on a dollar basis using a breakpoint equivalent of $1,000 per unit and will be applied on whichever basis is more favorable to the broker- dealer or selling agent. For transactions involving unitholders of other unit investment trusts who use their redemption or termination proceeds to purchase units of the trust offered in this prospectus, the concession or agency commission is $17.50 per unit. After the initial offering period, the broker-dealer concession or agency commission for secondary market transactions is equal to 2.50% of the public offering price. Any sales fee discount is borne by the broker-dealer or selling firm out of the concession or agency commission, except as stated above. We reserve the right to change the amount of concessions or agency commissions from time to time. Understanding Your Investment 21 Broker-dealers and other firms that sell units of certain unit investment trusts for which AAM acts as sponsor are eligible to receive additional compensation for volume sales. The sponsor offers two separate volume concession structures for certain trusts that are referred to as "Volume Concession A" and "Volume Concession B." The trust offered in this prospectus is a Volume Concession B trust. Broker-dealers and other firms that sell units of any Volume Concession B trust are eligible to receive the additional compensation described below. Such payments will be in addition to the regular concessions paid to firms as set forth in the applicable trust's prospectus. The additional concession is based on total initial offering period sales of all Volume Concession B trusts during a calendar quarter as set forth in the following table: INITIAL OFFERING PERIOD SALES VOLUME DURING CALENDAR QUARTER CONCESSION --------------------------------------------------------- Less than $100,000,000 0.000% $100,000,000 but less than $250,000,000 0.050 $250,000,000 or more 0.100 This volume concession will be paid on units of all Volume Concession B trust units sold in the initial offering period, except as described below. Currently, series of Advisors Corporate Trust--Navellier/Dial High Income Opportunities Portfolio, Build America Bond Limited Maturity Portfolio, Build America Bond Portfolio, Insured Tax Exempt Municipal Portfolio, Municipal Opportunities Portfolio, Tax Exempt Municipal Portfolio and Tax Exempt Securities Trust are classified as Volume Concession B trusts; however, other trusts may be classified as Volume Concession B trusts in the future and eligible for this additional compensation for calendar quarter sales as disclosed in the applicable trust prospectus. For a trust to be eligible for this additional Volume Concession B compensation for calendar quarter sales, the trust's prospectus must include disclosure related to this additional Volume Concession B compensation. A trust is not eligible for this additional Volume Concession B compensation if the prospectus for such trust does not include disclosure related to this additional Volume Concession B compensation. Other trusts sponsored by AAM are eligible to receive different categories of additional compensation for volume sales as set forth in the applicable trust's prospectus. Broker dealer-firms will not receive compensation unless they sell at least $100 million of units of Volume Concession B trusts during a calendar quarter. For example, if a firm sells $99.5 million of units of Volume Concession B trusts during a calendar quarter, the firm will not receive any additional compensation with respect to such trusts. Once a firm reaches a particular breakpoint during a quarter, the firm will receive the stated volume concession on all initial offering period sales of Volume Concession B trust units during the applicable quarter. For example, if a firm sells $115 million of units of Volume Concession B trusts in the initial offering period during a calendar quarter, the firm will receive additional compensation of 0.05% of $115 million and if a firm sells $275 million of units of Volume Concession B trusts in the initial offering period during a calendar quarter, the firm will receive additional compensation of 0.10% of $275 million. In addition, selling firms will not receive the additional compensation on the sale of units which are not subject to a transactional sales charge. However, such sales will be included in determining whether a firm has met the volume sales concession breakpoints. Secondary market sales of units are excluded for purposes of the additional compensation. We will pay these amounts out of our own assets within a reasonable time following each calendar quarter. We currently provide, at our own expense and out of our own profits, additional compensation 22 Understanding Your Investment and benefits to broker-dealers who sell units of this trust and our other products. This compensation is intended to result in additional sales of our products and/or compensate broker-dealers and financial advisors for past sales. A number of factors are considered in determining whether to pay these additional amounts. Such factors may include, but are not limited to, the level or type of services provided by the intermediary, the level or expected level of sales of our products by the intermediary or its agents, the placing of our products on a preferred or recommended product list and access to an intermediary's personnel. We may make these payments for marketing, promotional or related expenses, including, but not limited to, expenses of entertaining retail customers and financial advisors, advertising, sponsorship of events or seminars, obtaining information about the breakdown of unit sales among an intermediary's representatives or offices, obtaining shelf space in broker- dealer firms and similar activities designed to promote the sale of our products. We make such payments to a substantial majority of intermediaries that sell our products. We may also make certain payments to, or on behalf of, intermediaries to defray a portion of their costs incurred for the purpose of facilitating unit sales, such as the costs of developing or purchasing trading systems to process unit trades. Payments of such additional compensation described in this paragraph and the volume concessions described above, some of which may be characterized as "revenue sharing," may create an incentive for financial intermediaries and their agents to sell or recommend our products, including this trust, over other products. These arrangements will not change the price you pay for your units. We generally register units for sale in various states in the U.S. We do not register units for sale in any foreign country. This prospectus does not constitute an offer of units in any state or country where units cannot be offered or sold lawfully. We may reject any order for units in whole or in part. We may gain or lose money when we hold units in the primary or secondary market due to fluctuations in unit prices. The gain or loss is equal to the difference between the price we pay for units and the price at which we sell or redeem them. We may also gain or lose money when we deposit securities to create units. TAXES This section summarizes some of the main U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning units of the trust. This section is current as of the date of this prospectus. Tax laws and interpretations change frequently, and these summaries do not describe all of the tax consequences to all taxpayers. For example, these summaries generally do not describe your situation if you are a corporation, a non-U.S. person, a broker/dealer, or other investor with special circumstances. In addition, this section does not describe your state, local or foreign tax consequences. This federal income tax summary is based in part on the advice of counsel to the sponsor. The Internal Revenue Service could disagree with any conclusions set forth in this section. In addition, our counsel was not asked to review, and has not reached a conclusion with respect to the federal income tax treatment of the assets to be deposited in the trust. This may not be sufficient for you to use for the purpose of avoiding penalties under federal tax law. As with any investment, you should seek advice based on your individual circumstances from your own tax advisor. Understanding Your Investment 23 TRUST STATUS. The trust intends to qualify as a "regulated investment company" under the federal tax laws. If the trust qualifies as a regulated investment company and distributes its income as required by the tax law, the trust generally will not pay federal income taxes. DISTRIBUTIONS. Trust distributions are generally taxable. After the end of each year, you will receive a tax statement that separates your trust's distributions into three categories, ordinary income distributions, capital gains dividends and return of capital. Ordinary income distributions are generally taxed at your ordinary tax rate, however, as further discussed below, certain ordinary income distributions received from the trust may be taxed at the capital gains tax rates. Generally, you will treat all capital gains dividends as long-term capital gains regardless of how long you have owned your units. To determine your actual tax liability for your capital gains dividends, you must calculate your total net capital gain or loss for the tax year after considering all of your other taxable transactions, as described below. In addition, the trust may make distributions that represent a return of capital for tax purposes and thus will generally not be taxable to you. The tax status of your distributions from your trust is not affected by whether you reinvest your distributions in additional units or receive them in cash. The income from your trust that you must take into account for federal income tax purposes is not reduced by amounts used to pay a deferred sales fee, if any. The tax laws may require you to treat distributions made to you in January as if you had received them on December 31 of the previous year. Under the "Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010," income from the trust may also be subject to a new 3.8 percent "medicare tax" imposed for taxable years beginning after 2012. This tax will generally apply to your net investment income if your adjusted gross income exceeds certain threshold amounts, which are $250,000 in the case of married couples filing joint returns and $200,000 in the case of single individuals. DIVIDENDS RECEIVED DEDUCTION. A corporation that owns units generally will not be entitled to the dividends received deduction with respect to many dividends received from the trust because the dividends received deduction is generally not available for distributions from regulated investment companies. However, certain ordinary income dividends on units that are attributable to qualifying dividends received by the trust from certain corporations may be designated by the trust as being eligible for the dividends received deduction. SALE OR REDEMPTION OF UNITS. If you sell or redeem your units, you will generally recognize a taxable gain or loss. To determine the amount of this gain or loss, you must subtract your tax basis in your units from the amount you receive in the transaction. Your tax basis in your units is generally equal to the cost of your units, generally including sales charges. In some cases, however, you may have to adjust your tax basis after you purchase your units. CAPITAL GAINS AND LOSSES AND CERTAIN ORDINARY INCOME DIVIDENDS. If you are an individual, the maximum marginal federal tax rate for net capital gain is generally 20% for taxpayers in the 39.6% tax bracket, 15% for taxpayers in the 25%, 28%, 33% and 35% tax brackets and 0% for taxpayers in the 10% and 15% tax brackets. Net capital gain equals net long-term capital gain minus net short-term capital loss for the taxable year. Capital gain or loss is long-term if the holding period for the asset is more than one year and is short-term if the holding period for the 24 Understanding Your Investment asset is one year or less. You must exclude the date you purchase your units to determine your holding period. However, if you receive a capital gain dividend from your trust and sell your unit at a loss after holding it for six months or less, the loss will be recharacterized as long-term capital loss to the extent of the capital gain dividend received. The tax rates for capital gains realized from assets held for one year or less are generally the same as for ordinary income. The Internal Revenue Code treats certain capital gains as ordinary income in special situations. Ordinary income dividends received by an individual unitholder from a regulated investment company such as the trust are generally taxed at the same rates that apply to net capital gain (as discussed above), provided certain holding period requirements are satisfied and provided the dividends are attributable to qualifying dividends received by the trust itself. The trust will provide notice to its unitholders of the amount of any distribution which may be taken into account as a dividend which is eligible for the capital gains tax rates. EXCHANGES. If you elect to have your proceeds from your trust rolled over into a future trust, the exchange would generally be considered a sale for federal income tax purposes. DEDUCTIBILITY OF TRUST EXPENSES. Expenses incurred and deducted by your trust will generally not be treated as income taxable to you. In some cases, however, you may be required to treat your portion of these trust expenses as income. In these cases you may be able to take a deduction for these expenses. However, certain miscellaneous itemized deductions, such as investment expenses, may be deducted by individuals only to the extent that all of these deductions exceed 2% of the individual's adjusted gross income. Some individuals may also be subject to further limitations on the amount of their itemized deductions, depending on their income. FOREIGN TAX CREDIT. If your trust invests in any foreign securities, the tax statement that you receive may include an item showing foreign taxes your trust paid to other countries. In this case, dividends taxed to you will include your share of the taxes your trust paid to other countries. You may be able to deduct or receive a tax credit for your share of these taxes. INVESTMENTS IN CERTAIN FOREIGN CORPORATIONS. If the trust holds an equity interest in any "passive foreign investment companies" ("PFICs"), which are generally certain foreign corporations that receive at least 75% of their annual gross income from passive sources (such as interest, dividends, certain rents and royalties or capital gains) or that hold at least 50% of their assets in investments producing such passive income, the trust could be subject to U.S. federal income tax and additional interest charges on gains and certain distributions with respect to those equity interests, even if all the income or gain is timely distributed to its unitholders. The trust will not be able to pass through to its unitholders any credit or deduction for such taxes. The trust may be able to make an election that could ameliorate these adverse tax consequences. In this case, the trust would recognize as ordinary income any increase in the value of such PFIC shares, and as ordinary loss any decrease in such value to the extent it did not exceed prior increases included in income. Under this election, the trust might be required to recognize in a year income in excess of its distributions from PFICs and its proceeds from dispositions of PFIC stock during that year, and such income would nevertheless be subject to the distribution requirement and would be taken into account for purposes of the Understanding Your Investment 25 4% excise tax. Dividends paid by PFICs will not be treated as qualified dividend income. FOREIGN INVESTORS. If you are a foreign investor (i.e., an investor other than a U.S. citizen or resident or a U.S. corporation, partnership, estate or trust), you should be aware that, generally, subject to applicable tax treaties, distributions from the trust will be characterized as dividends for federal income tax purposes (other than dividends which the trust properly reports as capital gain dividends) and will be subject to U.S. income taxes, including withholding taxes, subject to certain exceptions described below. However, distributions received by a foreign investor from the trust that are properly reported by the trust as capital gain dividends may not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes, including withholding taxes, provided that the trust makes certain elections and certain other conditions are met. In the case of dividends with respect to taxable years of the trust beginning prior to 2014, distributions from the trust that are properly reported by the trust as an interest-related dividend attributable to certain interest income received by the trust or as a short-term capital gain dividend attributable to certain net short-term capital gain income received by the trust may not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes, including withholding taxes when received by certain foreign investors, provided that the trust makes certain elections and certain other conditions are met. In addition, distributions in respect of units after December 31, 2013 may be subject to a U.S. withholding tax of 30% in the case of distributions to (i) certain non-U.S. financial institutions that have not entered into an agreement with the U.S. Treasury to collect and disclose certain information and are not resident in a jurisdiction that has entered into such an agreement with the U.S. Treasury and (ii) certain other non-U.S. entities that do not provide certain certifications and information about the entity's U.S. owners. Dispositions of units by such persons may be subject to such withholding after December 31, 2016. You should also consult your tax advisor with respect to other U.S. tax withholding and reporting requirements. EXPENSES Your trust will pay various expenses to conduct its operations. The "Fees and Expenses" section of the "Investment Summary" in this prospectus shows the estimated amount of these expenses. Your trust will pay a fee to the trustee for its services. The trustee also benefits when it holds cash for your trust in non-interest bearing accounts. Your trust will reimburse us as supervisor, evaluator and sponsor for providing portfolio supervisory services, for evaluating your portfolio and for providing bookkeeping and administrative services. Our reimbursements may exceed the costs of the services we provide to your trust but will not exceed the costs of services provided to all of our unit investment trusts in any calendar year. All of these fees may adjust for inflation without your approval. Your trust will also pay its general operating expenses. Your trust may pay expenses such as trustee expenses (including legal and auditing expenses), various governmental charges, fees for extraordinary trustee services, costs of taking action to protect your trust, costs of indemnifying the trustee and the sponsor, legal fees and expenses, expenses incurred in contacting you and costs incurred to reimburse the trustee for advancing funds to meet distributions. Your trust may pay the costs of updating its registration statement each year. Your trust will pay a license fee for the use of certain service marks, trademarks, trade names and/or other property of 26 Understanding Your Investment Navellier & Associates, Inc. and Dial Capital Management, LLC. The trustee will generally pay trust expenses from interest income and principal payments received on the securities but in some cases may sell securities to pay trust expenses.

Understanding Your Investment 27 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM UNITHOLDERS ADVISORS DISCIPLINED TRUST 1058 We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition, including the trust portfolio on pages 5 and 6, of Advisors Disciplined Trust 1058, as of ____________, 2013, the initial date of deposit. The statement of financial condition is the responsibility of the trust's sponsor. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this statement of financial condition based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statement of financial condition is free of material misstatement. The trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the trust's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the statement of financial condition, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the sponsor, as well as evaluating the overall statement of financial condition presentation. Our procedures included confirmation with The Bank of New York Mellon, trustee, of cash or an irrevocable letter of credit deposited for the purchase of securities as shown in the statement of financial condition as of ____________, 2013. We believe that our audit of the statement of financial condition provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the statement of financial condition referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Advisors Disciplined Trust 1058 as of ____________, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

CONTENTS General Information 2 Investment Objective and Policies 3 Risk Factors 7 Administration of the Trust 15 Purchase, Redemption and Pricing of Units 22 Taxation 28 Performance Information 29 Description of Securities Ratings 30 GENERAL INFORMATION Each trust is one of a series of separate unit investment trusts created under the name Advisors Disciplined Trust and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Each trust was created as a common law trust on the inception date described in the prospectus under the laws of the state of New York. Each trust was created under a trust agreement among Advisors Asset Management, Inc. (as sponsor, evaluator and supervisor) and The Bank of New York Mellon (as trustee). When your trust was created, the sponsor delivered to the trustee securities or contracts for the purchase thereof for deposit in the trust and the trustee delivered to the sponsor documentation evidencing the ownership of units of the trust. At the close of the New York Stock Exchange on the trust's inception date, the number of units may be adjusted so that the public offering price per unit equals $1,000. The number of units, fractional interest of each unit in the trust and estimated interest distributions per unit will increase or decrease to the extent of any adjustment. Additional units of each trust may be issued from time to time by depositing in the trust additional securities (or contracts for the purchase thereof together with cash or irrevocable letters of credit) or cash (including a letter of credit or the equivalent) with instructions to purchase additional securities. As additional units are issued by a trust as a result of the deposit of additional securities by the sponsor, the aggregate value of the securities in the trust will be increased and the fractional undivided interest in the trust represented by each unit will be decreased. The sponsor may continue to make additional deposits of securities into a trust, provided that such additional deposits will be in principal amounts which will generally maintain the same original percentage relationship among the principal amounts of the securities in such trust established by the initial deposit of the securities. Thus, although additional units will be issued, each unit will generally continue to represent the same principal amount of each security, and the percentage relationship among the principal amount of each security in the related trust will generally remain the same. If the sponsor deposits cash to purchase additional securities, existing and new investors may experience a dilution of their investments and a reduction in their anticipated income because of fluctuations in the prices of the securities between the time of the cash deposit and the purchase of the securities and because the trust will pay any associated brokerage fees. Each unit initially offered represents an undivided interest in the related trust. To the extent that any units are redeemed by the trustee or additional units are issued as a result of additional securities being deposited by the sponsor, the fractional undivided interest in a trust represented by each unredeemed unit will increase or decrease accordingly, although the actual interest in such trust represented by such fraction will remain unchanged. Units will remain outstanding until redeemed upon tender to the trustee by unitholders, which may include the sponsor, or until the termination of the trust agreement. A trust consists of (a) the securities listed under "Portfolio" in the prospectus as may continue to be held from time to time in the trust, (b) any additional securities acquired and held by the trust pursuant to the provisions of the trust agreement and (c) any cash held in the accounts of the trust. Neither the sponsor nor the trustee shall be liable in any way for any failure in any of the securities. However, should any contract for the purchase of any of the -2- securities initially deposited in a trust fail, the sponsor will, unless substantially all of the moneys held in the trust to cover such purchase are reinvested in substitute securities in accordance with the trust agreement, refund the cash and sales fee attributable to such failed contract to all unitholders on the next distribution date. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND POLICIES The trust seeks to provide monthly distributions of interest income and capital preservation by investing in a portfolio primarily consisting of investment grade interest-bearing corporate debt obligations. There is, of course, no guarantee that the trust will achieve its objective. The prospectus provides additional information regarding the trust's objective and investment strategy. The trust is a unit investment trust and is not an "actively managed" fund. Traditional methods of investment management for a managed fund typically involve frequent changes in a portfolio of securities on the basis of economic, financial and market analysis. The portfolio of a trust, however, will not be actively managed and therefore the adverse financial condition of an issuer will not necessarily require the sale of its securities from a portfolio. The sponsor may not alter the portfolio of a trust by the purchase, sale or substitution of securities, except in the special circumstances discussed herein regarding the substitution of replacement securities for any failed securities. Thus, with the exception of the redemption or maturity of securities in accordance with their terms, the assets of a trust will remain unchanged under normal circumstances. The sponsor may direct the trustee to dispose of securities the value of which has been affected by certain adverse events including institution of certain legal proceedings or decline in price or the occurrence of other market factors, including advance refunding, so that in the opinion of the sponsor the retention of such securities in a trust would be detrimental to the interest of the unitholders. The proceeds from any such sales, exclusive of any portion which represents accrued interest, will be credited to the Principal Account of such trust for distribution to the unitholders. The sponsor is required to instruct the trustee to reject any offer made by an issuer of securities to issue new securities, or to exchange securities, for trust securities, the trustee shall reject such offer. However, should any issuance, exchange or substitution be effected notwithstanding such rejection or without an initial offer, any securities or property received shall be deposited in the trust and shall be promptly sold by the trustee unless the sponsor advises the trustee to keep such securities or properties. The excess cash proceeds of any such sales will be distributed to unitholders. If a public tender offer has been made for a security or a merger, acquisition or similar transaction has been announced affecting a security, the trustee may either sell the security or accept a tender offer if the supervisor determines that the action is in the best interest of unitholders. The trustee will distribute any excess cash proceeds to unitholders. If your trust receives securities or other property, it will either hold the securities or property in the portfolio -3- or sell the securities or property and distribute the proceeds. The sponsor may direct the reinvestment of security sale proceeds if the sale is the direct result of serious adverse credit factors which, in the opinion of the sponsor, would make retention of the securities detrimental to the trust. In such a case, the sponsor may, but is not obligated to, direct the reinvestment of sale proceeds in any other securities that meet the criteria for inclusion in the trust on the trust's inception date. The sponsor may also instruct the trustee to take action necessary to ensure that the portfolio continues to satisfy the qualifications of a regulated investment company for federal tax purposes if the trust has elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company. The trustee may sell securities, designated by the sponsor, from a trust for the purpose of redeeming units of such trust tendered for redemption and the payment of expenses. In addition, if a trust has elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company, the trustee may dispose of certain securities and take such further action as may be needed from time to time to ensure that a trust continues to satisfy the qualifications of a regulated investment company, including the requirements with respect to diversification under Section 851 of the Internal Revenue Code, and as may be needed from time to time to avoid the imposition of any tax on a trust or undistributed income of a trust as a regulated investment company. Proceeds from the sale of securities (or any securities or other property received by a trust in exchange for securities) are credited to the Principal Account of a trust for distribution to unitholders or to meet redemptions. Except for failed securities and as provided herein, in the prospectus or in the trust agreement, the acquisition by a trust of any securities other than the portfolio securities is prohibited. Because certain of the securities in certain of the trusts may from time to time under certain circumstances be sold or redeemed or will mature in accordance with their terms and because the proceeds from such events will be distributed to unitholders and will not be reinvested, no assurance can be given that a trust will retain for any length of time its present size and composition. Neither the sponsor nor the trustee shall be liable in any way for any default, failure or defect in any security. In the event of a failure to deliver any security that has been purchased for a trust under a contract, including those securities purchased on a "when, as and if issued" basis ("Failed Securities"), the sponsor is authorized under the trust agreement to direct the trustee to acquire other securities ("Replacement Securities") to make up the original corpus of such trust. Securities in certain of the trusts may have been purchased on a "when, as and if issued" or delayed delivery basis with delivery expected to take place after the first settlement date. Accordingly, the delivery of such securities may be delayed or may not occur. Interest on these securities begins accruing to the benefit of unitholders on their respective dates of delivery. Unitholders of all trusts will be "at risk" with respect to any "when, as and if issued" or "delayed delivery" securities included in their respective trust (i.e., may derive either gain or loss from fluctuations in the evaluation of such securities) from the date they commit for units. The Replacement Securities must be purchased within 20 days after delivery of the notice that a contract to deliver a security will not be honored and the purchase price may not exceed -4- the amount of funds reserved for the purchase of the Failed Securities. The Replacement Securities (i) shall be bonds, debentures, notes or other straight debt obligations (whether secured or unsecured and whether senior or subordinated) without equity or other conversion features, with fixed maturity dates substantially the same as those of the Failed Securities, having no warrants or subscription privileges attached; (ii) shall be payable in United States currency; (iii) shall not be "when, as and if issued" obligations or restricted securities; (iv) shall be issued after July 18, 1984 if interest thereon is United States source income; (v) shall be issued or guaranteed by an issuer subject to or exempt from the reporting requirements under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (or similar provisions of law) or in effect guaranteed, directly or indirectly, by means by of a lease agreement, agreement to buy securities, services or products, or other similar commitment of the credit of such an issuer to the payment of the Replacement Securities; (vi) if the prospectus for the related trust provides that an objective of such trust is to provide income exempt from United States federal taxation, shall be securities issued by states or territories of the United States or political subdivisions thereof which shall have the benefit of an exemption from United States federal taxation of interest to an extent equal to or greater than that of the Securities they replace and, if the prospectus for the related trust provides that an objective of such trust is to provide income exempt from state taxation, shall have the benefit of an exemption from state taxation to an extent equal to or greater than that of the Securities they replace; and (vii) shall not cause the units of the related trust to cease to be rated "AAA" by Standard & Poor's, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. if the units are so rated. The purchase price of the Replacement Securities (exclusive of accrued interest) shall not exceed the principal attributable to the Failed Securities. In addition, no substitution of Replacement Securities will be made without an opinion of counsel that such substitution will not adversely affect the federal income tax status of the related trust, if such Replacement Securities when added to all previously purchased Replacement Securities in the related trust exceed 15% of the principal amount of Securities initially deposited in the related trust. Whenever a Replacement Security is acquired for a trust, the trustee shall, within five days thereafter, notify all unitholders of the trust of the acquisition of the Replacement Security and shall, on the next monthly distribution date which is more than 30 days thereafter, make a pro rata distribution of the amount, if any, by which the cost to the trust of the Failed Security exceeded the cost of the Replacement Security. Once all of the securities in a trust are acquired, the trustee will have no power to vary the investments of the trust, i.e., the trustee will have no managerial power to take advantage of market variations to improve a unitholder's investment. If the right of limited substitution described in the preceding paragraphs is not utilized to acquire Replacement Securities in the event of a failed contract, the sponsor will refund the sales fee attributable to such Failed Securities to all unitholders of the trust and the trustee will distribute the principal and accrued interest attributable to such Failed Securities not more than 30 days after the date on which the trustee would have been required to purchase a Replacement Security. In addition, unitholders should be aware that, at the time of receipt of such principal, they may not be able to reinvest such proceeds in other securities at a yield equal to or in excess of the yield which such proceeds would have earned for unitholders of such trust. Whether or not a Replacement Security is acquired, an amount equal to the accrued interest (at the coupon rate of the Failed Securities) will be paid to unitholders of the trust to the -5- date the sponsor removes the Failed Securities from the trust if the sponsor determines not to purchase a Replacement Security or to the date of substitution if a Replacement Security is purchased. All such interest paid to unitholders which accrued after the date of settlement for a purchase of units will be paid by the sponsor. In the event a Replacement Security could not be acquired by a trust, the net annual interest income per unit for such trust would be reduced and the estimated current return and estimated long-term return might be lowered. Subsequent to the trust's inception, a security may cease to be rated or its rating may be reduced below any minimum required as of the trust's inception. Neither event requires the elimination of such investment from a trust, but may be considered in the sponsor's determination to direct the trustee to dispose of such investment. The sponsor may not alter the portfolio of a trust except upon the happening of certain extraordinary circumstances. Certain of the securities may be subject to optional call or mandatory redemption pursuant to sinking fund provisions, in each case prior to their stated maturity. A bond subject to optional call is one which is subject to redemption or refunding prior to maturity at the option of the issuer, often at a premium over par. A 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 at par with proceeds from a fund accumulated for the scheduled retirement of a portion of an issue to maturity. Special or extraordinary redemption provisions may provide for redemption at par of all or a portion of an issue upon the occurrence of certain circumstances. Redemption pursuant to optional call provisions is more likely to occur, and redemption pursuant to special or extraordinary redemption provisions may occur, when the securities have an offering side evaluation which represents a premium over par, that is, when they are able to be refinanced at a lower cost. The proceeds from any such call or redemption pursuant to sinking fund provisions, as well as proceeds from the sale of securities and from securities which mature in accordance with their terms from a trust, unless utilized to pay for units tendered for redemption, will be distributed to unitholders of such trust and will not be used to purchase additional securities for such trust. Accordingly, any such call, redemption, sale or maturity will reduce the size and diversity of a trust and the net annual interest income of such trust and may reduce the estimated current return and the estimated long- term return. The call, redemption, sale or maturity of securities also may have tax consequences to a unitholder. Certain of the securities in certain of the trusts may have been acquired at a market discount from par value at maturity. The coupon interest rates on the discount securities at the time they were purchased and deposited in the trusts were lower than the current market interest rates for newly issued bonds of comparable rating and type. If such interest rates for newly issued comparable securities increase, the market discount of previously issued securities will become greater, and if such interest rates for newly issued comparable securities decline, the market discount of previously issued securities will be reduced, other things being equal. Investors should also note that the value of securities purchased at a market discount will increase in value faster than securities purchased at a market premium if interest rates decrease. Conversely, if interest rates increase, the value of securities purchased at a market discount will decrease faster than securities purchased at a market premium. In addition, if interest rates rise, the prepayment risk of higher yielding, premium securities and the prepayment benefit for lower -6- yielding, discount securities will be reduced. A discount security held to maturity will have a larger portion of its total return in the form of taxable income and capital gain and loss in the form of tax-exempt interest income than a comparable security newly issued at current market rates. Market discount attributable to interest changes does not indicate a lack of market confidence in the issue. Neither the sponsor nor the trustee shall be liable in any way for any default, failure or defect in any of the securities. Certain of the securities in the trust may be "zero coupon" bonds, i.e., an original issue discount bond that does not provide for the payment of current interest. Zero coupon bonds are purchased at a deep discount because the buyer receives only the right to receive a final payment at the maturity of the bond and does not receive any periodic interest payments. The effect of owning deep discount bonds which do not make current interest payments (such as the zero coupon bonds) 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 such 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 on the discount obligation, but at the same time 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 which pay interest currently. To the best of the sponsor's knowledge, there is no litigation pending as of the trust's inception in respect of any security which might reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the trust. At any time after the trust's inception, litigation may be instituted on a variety of grounds with respect to the securities. The sponsor is unable to predict whether any such litigation may be instituted, or if instituted, whether such litigation might have a material adverse effect on the trust. The sponsor and the trustee shall not be liable in any way for any default, failure or defect in any security. RISK FACTORS MARKET DISCOUNT. Certain of the bonds may have been acquired at a market discount from par value at maturity. The coupon interest rates on discount bonds at the time they were purchased and deposited in a trust were lower than the current market interest rates for newly issued bonds of comparable rating and type. If such interest rates for newly issued comparable bonds increase, the market discount of previously issued bonds will become greater, and if such interest rates for newly issued comparable bonds decline, the market discount of previously issued bonds will be reduced, other things being equal. Investors should also note that the value of bonds purchased at a market discount will increase in value faster than bonds purchased at a market premium if interest rates decrease. Conversely, if interest rates increase, the value of bonds purchased at a market discount will decrease faster than bonds purchased at a market premium. In addition, if interest rates rise, the prepayment risk of higher yielding, premium bonds and the prepayment benefit for lower yielding, discount bonds will be reduced. Market discount attributable to interest changes does not indicate a lack of market confidence in the issue. Neither the sponsor nor the trustee shall be liable in any way for any default, failure or defect in any of the bonds. -7- PREMIUM BONDS. Certain of the bonds held by the trust may have been acquired at a market premium from par value at maturity. The coupon interest rates on the premium bonds at the time they were purchased by the trust were higher than the current market interest rates for newly issued bonds of comparable rating and type. If such interest rates for newly issued and otherwise comparable bonds decrease, the market premium of previously issued bonds will be increased, and if such interest rates for newly issued comparable bonds increase, the market premium of previously issued bonds will be reduced, other things being equal. The current returns of bonds trading at a market premium are initially higher than the current returns of comparable bonds of a similar type issued at currently prevailing interest rates because premium bonds tend to decrease in market value as they approach maturity when the face amount becomes payable. Because part of the purchase price is thus returned not at maturity but through current income payments, early redemption of a premium bond at par or early prepayments of principal will result in a reduction in yield. Redemption pursuant to call provisions generally will, and redemption pursuant to sinking fund provisions may, occur at times when the redeemed bonds have an offering side valuation which represents a premium over par or for original issue discount bonds a premium over the accreted value. ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT BONDS. Certain of the bonds may be "zero coupon" bonds. Zero coupon bonds are purchased at a deep discount because the buyer receives only the right to receive a final payment at the maturity of the bond and does not receive any periodic interest payments. The effect of owning deep discount bonds which do not make current interest payments (such as the zero coupon bonds) 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 such 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 on the discount obligation, but at the same time 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 which pay interest. "WHEN ISSUED" AND "DELAYED DELIVERY" BONDS. Certain of the bonds may have been purchased on a "when, as and if issued" or "delayed delivery" basis. See "Notes to Portfolio" in the prospectus. The delivery of any such bonds may be delayed or may not occur. Interest on these Bonds begins accruing to the benefit of unitholders on their respective dates of delivery. To the extent any bonds are actually delivered to a trust after their respective expected dates of delivery, unitholders who purchase their unit prior to the date such bonds are actually delivered to the trustee would be required to adjust their tax basis in their unit for a portion of the interest accruing on such bonds during the interval between their purchase of unit and the actual delivery of such bonds. As a result of any such adjustment, the Estimated Current Returns during the first year would be slightly lower than those stated in the Prospectus which would be the returns after the first year, assuming the portfolio of a trust and estimated annual expenses other than that of the trustee (which may be reduced in the first year only) do not vary from that set forth in the prospectus. Unitholders will be "at risk" with respect to all bonds in the portfolios including "when, as and if issued" and "delayed delivery" bonds (i.e., may derive either gain or loss from fluctuations in the evaluation of such bonds) from the date they commit for unit. -8- FINANCIAL SERVICES INDUSTRY. Your trust may concentrate in securities of issuers in the financial services industry. Banks and their holding companies are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession; volatile interest rates; portfolio concentrations in geographic markets and in commercial and residential real estate loans; and competition from new entrants in their fields of business. In addition, banks and their holding companies are extensively regulated at both the federal and state level and may be adversely affected by increased regulations. Banks will face increased competition from nontraditional lending sources as regulatory changes, such as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley financial services overhaul legislation, permit new entrants to offer various financial products. Technological advances such as the Internet allow these nontraditional lending sources to cut overhead and permit the more efficient use of customer data. Banks are already facing tremendous pressure from mutual funds, brokerage firms and other financial service providers in the competition to furnish services that were traditionally offered by banks. Companies engaged in investment management and broker-dealer activities are subject to volatility in their earnings and share prices that often exceeds the volatility of the equity market in general. Adverse changes in the direction of the stock market, investor confidence, equity transaction volume, the level and direction of interest rates and the outlook of emerging markets could adversely affect the financial stability, as well as the stock prices, of these companies. Additionally, competitive pressures, including increased competition with new and existing competitors, the ongoing commoditization of traditional businesses and the need for increased capital expenditures on new technology could adversely impact the profit margins of companies in the investment management and brokerage industries. Companies involved in investment management and broker-dealer activities are also subject to extensive regulation by government agencies and self-regulatory organizations, and changes in laws, regulations or rules, or in the interpretation of such laws, regulations and rules could adversely affect the stock prices of such companies. Companies involved in the insurance, reinsurance and risk management industry underwrite, sell or distribute property, casualty and business insurance. Many factors affect insurance, reinsurance and risk management company profits, including interest rate movements, the imposition of premium rate caps, a misapprehension of the risks involved in given underwritings, competition and pressure to compete globally, weather catastrophes or other disasters and the effects of client mergers. Already extensively regulated, insurance companies' profits may be adversely affected by increased government regulations or tax law changes. Financial services companies have faced significant difficulty related to the downturn in the housing and mortgage lending markets, corresponding declines in the value of mortgage-backed securities and the resulting impact on all areas of the financial services industry and the broader economy. These difficulties have given rise to considerable uncertainty regarding the global economy and financial services companies, in particular. The downturn has also led to considerable write-downs in the values of many assets held by financial services companies and a tightening of credit markets that has been marked by a general unwillingness of many entities to extend credit. These factors have caused a significant need for many financial services companies to raise capital to meet obligations and to satisfy regulatory and contractual capital -9- requirements. Many well-established financial services companies have been forced to seek additional capital through issuances of new preferred or common equity and certain companies have been forced to agree to be acquired by other companies (or sell some or all of their assets to other companies). In some cases government assistance, guarantees or direct participation in investments or acquisitions have been necessary to facilitate these transactions. In addition, concerns regarding these issues and their potential negative impact to the U.S. and global economies have resulted in extreme volatility in securities prices and uncertain market conditions. In response to these issues, government authorities in the U.S. and other countries have initiated and may continue to engage in administrative and legislative action intended to address both short- and long-term difficulties facing the housing and mortgage lending markets, mortgage backed securities, the financial services industry and the broader economy. These government actions may include, but are not limited to, restrictions on investment activities; increased oversight, regulation and involvement in financial services company practices; adjustments to capital requirements; the acquisition of interests in and the extension of credit to private entities; and increased investigation efforts into the actions of companies and individuals in the financial service industry. No one can predict any action that might be taken or the effect any action or inaction will have. It is possible that any actions taken by government authorities will not address or help improve the state of these difficulties as intended. No one can predict the impact that the difficulties will have on the economy, generally or financial services companies. The difficulties and corresponding government action or inaction may have far reaching consequences and your investment may be adversely affected by such developments. Banks and their holding companies are subject to extensive federal regulation and, when such institutions are state-chartered, to state regulation as well. Such regulations impose strict capital requirements and limitations on the nature and extent of business activities that banks may pursue. Furthermore, bank regulators have a wide range of discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement authority and may substantially restrict the permissible activities of a particular institution if deemed to pose significant risks to the soundness of such institution or the safety of the federal deposit insurance fund. Regulatory actions, such as increases in the minimum capital requirements applicable to banks and increases in deposit insurance premiums required to be paid by banks and thrifts to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), can negatively impact earnings and the ability of a company to pay dividends. Neither federal insurance of deposits nor governmental regulations, however, insures the solvency or profitability of banks or their holding companies, or insures against any risk of investment in the securities issued by such institutions. The statutory requirements applicable to, and regulatory supervision of, banks and their holding companies have increased significantly and have undergone substantial change in the past. To a great extent, these changes are embodied in the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act, enacted in August 1989; the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991, and the regulations promulgated under these laws. The impact of these laws on the business, financial condition and prospects of the Securities in the Trust's portfolio cannot be predicted with certainty. The Gramm-Leach- Bliley financial services overhaul legislation allows banks, securities firms and insurance companies to form one-stop -10- financial conglomerates marketing a wide range of financial service products to investors. This legislation will likely result in increased merger activity and heightened competition among existing and new participants in the field. Legislation to liberalize interstate banking has also been enacted. Under the legislation, banks are able to purchase or establish subsidiary banks in any state. Since mid-1997, banks have been allowed to turn existing banks into branches. Consolidation may continue. The Securities and Exchange Commission and the Financial Accounting Standards Board require the expanded use of market value accounting by banks and have imposed rules requiring market accounting for investment securities held in trading accounts or available for sale. Adoption of additional such rules may result in increased volatility in the reported health of the industry, and mandated regulatory intervention to correct such problems. Additional legislative and regulatory changes may be forthcoming. For example, the bank regulatory authorities have proposed substantial changes to the Community Reinvestment Act and fair lending laws, rules and regulations, and there can be no certainty as to the effect, if any, that such changes would have on the Securities in the Trust's portfolio. In addition, from time to time the deposit insurance system is reviewed by Congress and federal regulators, and proposed reforms of that system could, among other things, further restrict the ways in which deposited moneys can be used by banks or reduce the dollar amount or number of deposits insured for any depositor. Such reforms could reduce profitability, as investment opportunities available to bank institutions become more limited and as consumers look for savings vehicles other than bank deposits. Banks face significant competition from other financial institutions such as mutual funds, credit unions, mortgage banking companies and insurance companies, and increased competition may result from legislative broadening of regional and national interstate banking powers. Among other benefits, such legislation allows banks and bank holding companies to acquire across previously prohibited state lines and to consolidate their various bank subsidiaries into one unit. Neither the Sponsor nor the Underwriter makes any prediction as to what, if any, manner of bank regulatory actions might ultimately be adopted or what ultimate effect such actions might have on the Trust's portfolio. The Federal Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 generally prohibits a bank holding company from (1) acquiring, directly or indirectly, more than 5% of the outstanding shares of any class of voting securities of a bank or bank holding company, (2) acquiring control of a bank or another bank holding company, (3) acquiring all or substantially all the assets of a bank, or (4) merging or consolidating with another bank holding company, without first obtaining Federal Reserve Board ("FRB") approval. In considering an application with respect to any such transaction, the FRB is required to consider a variety of factors, including the potential anti-competitive effects of the transaction, the financial condition and future prospects of the combining and resulting institutions, the managerial resources of the resulting institution, the convenience and needs of the communities the combined organization would serve, the record of performance of each combining organization under the Community Reinvestment Act and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, and the prospective availability to the FRB of information appropriate to determine ongoing regulatory compliance with applicable banking laws. In addition, the federal Change In Bank Control Act and various state laws impose limitations on the ability of one or more individuals or other entities to acquire control of banks or bank holding companies. -11- The FRB has issued a policy statement on the payment of cash dividends by bank holding companies. In the policy statement, the FRB expressed its view that a bank holding company experiencing earnings weaknesses should not pay cash dividends which exceed its net income or which could only be funded in ways that would weaken its financial health, such as by borrowing. The FRB also may impose limitations on the payment of dividends as a condition to its approval of certain applications, including applications for approval of mergers and acquisitions. Neither the Sponsor nor the Underwriter makes any prediction as to the effect, if any, such laws will have on the Securities or whether such approvals, if necessary, will be obtained. Companies engaged in investment management and brokerage activities are subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, volatile interest rates, and competition from new entrants in their fields of business. Adverse changes in the direction of the stock market, investor confidence, the financial health of customers, equity transaction volume, the level and direction of interest rates and the outlook of emerging markets could adversely affect the financial stability, as well as the stock prices, of these companies. Additionally, competitive pressures, including increased competition from new and existing competitors, the ongoing commoditization of traditional businesses and the need for increased capital expenditures on new technology could adversely impact the profit margins of companies in the investment management and brokerage industries. Companies involved in investment management and brokerage activities are also subject to extensive regulation by government agencies and self- regulatory organizations, and changes in laws, regulations or rules, or in the interpretation of such laws, regulations and rules could adversely affect the stock prices of such companies. Companies involved in the insurance, reinsurance and risk management industry underwrite, sell or distribute property, casualty and business insurance. Many factors affect insurance, reinsurance and risk management company profits, including but not limited to interest rate movements, the imposition of premium rate caps, a misapprehension of the risks involved in given underwritings, competition and pressure to compete globally, weather catastrophes or other natural or man-made disasters and the effects of client mergers. Individual companies may be exposed to material risks including reserve inadequacy and the inability to collect from reinsurance carriers. Insurance companies are subject to extensive governmental regulation, including the imposition of maximum rate levels, which may not be adequate for some lines of business. Proposed or potential tax law changes may also adversely affect insurance companies' policy sales, tax obligations and profitability. In addition to the foregoing, profit margins of these companies continue to shrink due to the commoditization of traditional businesses, new competitors, capital expenditures on new technology and the pressure to compete globally. In addition to the normal risks of business, companies involved in the insurance and risk management industry are subject to significant risk factors, including those applicable to regulated insurance companies, such as: * the inherent uncertainty in the process of establishing property-liability loss reserves, and the fact that ultimate losses could materially exceed established loss reserves, which could have a material adverse effect on results of operations and financial condition; -12- * the fact that insurance companies have experienced, and can be expected in the future to experience, catastrophic losses, which could have a material adverse impact on their financial conditions, results of operations and cash flow; * the inherent uncertainty in the process of establishing property-liability loss reserves due to changes in loss payment patterns caused by new claim settlement practices; * the need for insurance companies and their subsidiaries to maintain appropriate levels of statutory capital and surplus, particularly in light of continuing scrutiny by rating organizations and state insurance regulatory authorities, and in order to maintain acceptable financial strength or claims-paying ability ratings; * the extensive regulation and supervision to which insurance companies are subject, and various regulatory and other legal actions; * the adverse impact that increases in interest rates could have on the value of an insurance company's investment portfolio and on the attractiveness of certain of its products; and * the uncertainty involved in estimating the availability of reinsurance and the collectibility of reinsurance recoverables. The state insurance regulatory framework has, during recent years, come under increased federal scrutiny, and certain state legislatures have considered or enacted laws that alter and, in many cases, increase state authority to regulate insurance companies and insurance holding company systems. Further, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC") and state insurance regulators are re-examining existing laws and regulations, specifically focusing on insurance companies, interpretations of existing laws and the development of new laws. In addition, Congress and certain federal agencies have investigated the condition of the insurance industry in the United States to determine whether to promulgate additional federal regulation. The Sponsor is unable to predict whether any state or federal legislation will be enacted to change the nature or scope of regulation of the insurance industry, or what effect, if any, such legislation would have on the industry. All insurance companies are subject to state laws and regulations that require diversification of their investment portfolios and limit the amount of investments in certain investment categories. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations would cause non-conforming investments to be treated as non- admitted assets for purposes of measuring statutory surplus and, in some instances, would require divestiture. The value of securities issued by financial services companies may also be affected by the downturn in the housing and mortgage lending markets, corresponding declines in the value -13- of mortgage backed securities and the resulting impact on all areas of the financial services industry. In response, government authorities have initiated and may continue to engage in administrative and legislative action intended to address both short- and long-term difficulties facing the housing and mortgage lending markets, mortgage backed securities, the financial services industry and the broader economy. These government actions may include, but are not limited to, restrictions on investment options, increased oversight, regulation and involvement in financial services company practices, adjustments to capital requirements, the acquisition of interests in and the extension of credit to private entities and increased investigation efforts into the actions of companies and individuals in the financial service industry. No one can predict the action that might be taken or the effect any action or inaction will have and it is possible that any actions taken by government authorities will not address or help improve the state of these difficulties as intended. The downturn and corresponding government action may have far reaching consequences into many geographic regions and areas of financial services companies and, consequently, the value of securities in the portfolio may decline in response to such developments. INDUSTRIALS ISSUERS. The trust may invest significantly in industrials companies. General risks of industrials companies include the general state of the economy, intense competition, consolidation, domestic and international politics, excess capacity and consumer spending trends. In addition, capital goods companies may also be significantly affected by overall capital spending levels, economic cycles, technical obsolescence, delays in modernization, limitations on supply of key materials, labor relations, government regulations, government contracts and ecommerce initiatives. Furthermore, certain companies involved in the industry have also faced scrutiny for alleged accounting irregularities that may have led to the overstatement of their financial results, and other companies in the industry may face similar scrutiny. Industrials companies may also be affected by factors more specific to their individual industries. Industrial machinery manufacturers may be subject to declines in commercial and consumer demand and the need for modernization. Aerospace and defense companies may be influenced by decreased demand for new equipment, aircraft order cancellations, disputes over or ability to obtain or retain government contracts, or changes in government budget priorities, changes in aircraft-leasing contracts and cutbacks in profitable business travel. The number of housing starts, levels of public and non-residential construction including weakening demand for new office and retail space, and overall construction spending may adversely affect construction equipment manufacturers. ADDITIONAL DEPOSITS. The trust agreement authorizes the sponsor to increase the size of a trust and the number of units thereof by the deposit of additional securities, or cash (including a letter of credit or the equivalent) with instructions to purchase additional securities, in such trust and the issuance of a corresponding number of additional units. In connection with these deposits, existing and new investors may experience a dilution of their investments and a reduction in their anticipated income because of fluctuations in the prices of the securities between the time of the cash deposit and the purchase of the securities and because a trust will pay the associated brokerage fees and other acquisition costs. -14- ADMINISTRATION OF THE TRUST DISTRIBUTIONS TO UNITHOLDERS. Interest received by a trust, including any portion of the proceeds from a disposition of securities which represents accrued interest, is credited by the trustee to the Interest Account for the trust. All other receipts are credited by the trustee to a separate Principal Account for the trust. The trustee normally has no cash for distribution to unitholders until it receives interest payments on the securities in the trust. On the dates set forth under "Essential Information" in the prospectus, the trustee will commence distributions, in part from funds advanced by the trustee. Thereafter, assuming the trust retains its original size and composition, after deduction of the fees and expenses and reimbursements (without interest) to the trustee for any amounts advanced to a trust, the trustee will normally distribute any income and principal received by the trust on each distribution date or shortly thereafter to unitholders of record on the preceding Record Date. Unitholders will receive an amount substantially equal to their pro rata share of the balance of the Interest Account. However, interest earned at any point in time will generally be greater than the amount actually received by the trustee. Therefore, there will generally remain an item of accrued interest that is added to the daily value of the units. If unitholders sell or redeem all or a portion of their units, they will be paid their proportionate share of the accrued interest to, but not including, the third business day after the date of a sale or to the date of tender in the case of a redemption. Unitholders of record on the first record date will receive an interest distribution on the first distribution date. Because the period of time between the first distribution date and the regular distribution dates may not be a full period, the first regular distributions may be partial distributions. Persons who purchase units between a record date and a distribution date will receive their first distribution on the second distribution date following their purchase of units. Since interest on securities in the trust is payable at varying intervals and distributions are made to unitholders at different intervals from receipt of interest, the interest accruing to a trust may not be equal to the amount of money received and available for distribution from the Interest Account. Therefore, on each distribution date the amount of interest actually deposited in the Interest Account and available for distribution may be slightly more or less than the interest distribution made. In order to eliminate fluctuations in interest distributions resulting from such variances, the trustee is authorized by the trust agreement to advance such amounts as may be necessary to provide interest distributions of approximately equal amounts. The trustee will be reimbursed, without interest, for any such advances from funds available in the Interest Account. The trustee will distribute on each distribution date or shortly thereafter, to each unitholder of record on the preceding record date, an amount substantially equal to such holder's pro rata share of the available cash balance, if any, in the Principal Account computed as of the close of business on the preceding record date. However, no distribution will be required if the balance in the Principal Account is less than $1.00 per unit. -15- STATEMENTS TO UNITHOLDERS. With each distribution, the trustee will furnish to each unitholder a statement of the amount of income and the amount of other receipts, if any, which are being distributed, expressed in each case as a dollar amount per unit. The accounts of a trust are required to be audited annually, at the related trust's expense, by independent public accountants designated by the sponsor, unless the sponsor determines that such an audit would not be in the best interest of the unitholders of the trust. The accountants' report will be furnished by the trustee to any unitholder upon written request. Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, the trustee shall furnish to each person who at any time during the calendar year was a unitholder of a trust a statement, covering the calendar year, setting forth for the trust: (A) As to the Interest Account: (1) Income received; (2) Deductions for applicable taxes and for fees and expenses of the trust and for redemptions of units, if any; and (3) 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; and (B) As to the Principal Account: (1) The dates of disposition of any securities and the net proceeds received therefrom; (2) Deductions for payment of applicable taxes and fees and expenses of the trust and for redemptions of units, if any; and (3) 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; and (C) The following information: (1) A list of the securities as of the last business day of such calendar year; (2) The number of units outstanding on the last business day of such calendar year; (3) The redemption price based on the last evaluation made during such calendar year; (4) The amount actually distributed during such calendar year from the Interest and Principal Accounts separately stated, expressed both as total dollar amounts and as dollar amounts per unit outstanding on the record dates for each such distribution. -16- RIGHTS OF UNITHOLDERS. A unitholder may at any time tender units to the trustee for redemption. The death or incapacity of any unitholder will not operate to terminate a trust nor entitle legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to bring any action or proceeding in any court for partition or winding up of a trust. No unitholder shall have the right to control the operation and management of a trust in any manner, except to vote with respect to the amendment of the trust agreement or termination of a trust. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. The trust agreement may be amended from time to time by the sponsor and trustee or their respective successors, without the consent of any of the unitholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement any provision which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision contained in the trust agreement, (ii) to make such other provision in regard to matters or questions arising under the trust agreement as shall not materially adversely affect the interests of the unitholders or (iii) to make such amendments as may be necessary (a) for the trust to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for federal income tax purposes if the trust has elected to be taxed as such under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or (b) to prevent the trust from being deemed an association taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes if the trust has not elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The trust agreement may not be amended, however, without the consent of all unitholders then outstanding, so as (1) to permit, except in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, the acquisition hereunder of any securities other than those specified in the schedules to the trust agreement or (2) to reduce the percentage of units the holders of which are required to consent to certain of such amendments. The trust agreement may not be amended so as to reduce the interest in a trust represented by units without the consent of all affected unitholders. Except for the amendments, changes or modifications described above, neither the sponsor nor the trustee may consent to any other amendment, change or modification of the trust agreement without the giving of notice and the obtaining of the approval or consent of unitholders representing at least 66 2/3% of the units then outstanding of the affected trust. No amendment may reduce the aggregate percentage of units the holders of which are required to consent to any amendment, change or modification of the trust agreement without the consent of the unitholders of all of the units then outstanding of the affected trust and in no event may any amendment be made which would (1) alter the rights to the unitholders as against each other, (2) provide the trustee with the power to engage in business or investment activities other than as specifically provided in the trust agreement, (3) adversely affect the tax status of the trust for federal income tax purposes or result in the units being deemed to be sold or exchanged for federal income tax purposes or (4) unless the trust has elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company for federal income tax purposes, result in a variation of the investment of unitholders in the trust. The trustee will notify unitholders of the substance of any such amendment. The trust agreement provides that a trust shall terminate upon the maturity, liquidation, redemption or other disposition of the last of the securities held in the trust but in no event is it to continue beyond the mandatory termination date. If the value of a trust shall be less than the applicable minimum value stated in the prospectus (generally 40% of the total value of securities deposited in the trust during the initial offering period), the trustee may, in its discretion, and shall, when so directed by the sponsor, terminate the trust. A trust may be terminated at any time -17- by the holders of units representing 66 2/3% of the units thereof then outstanding. A trust will be liquidated by the trustee in the event that a sufficient number of units of the trust not yet sold are tendered for redemption by the sponsor, so that the net worth of the trust would be reduced to less than 40% of the value of the securities at the time they were deposited in the trust. If a trust is liquidated because of the redemption of unsold units by the sponsor, the sponsor will refund to each purchaser of units the entire sales fee paid by such purchaser. Within a reasonable period after termination, the trustee will sell any securities remaining in a trust and, after paying all expenses and charges incurred by the trust, will distribute to unitholders thereof their pro rata share of the balances remaining in the Interest and Principal Accounts of the trust. THE TRUSTEE. The trustee is The Bank of New York Mellon, a trust company organized under the laws of New York. The Bank of New York Mellon has its principal unit investment trust division offices at 2 Hanson Place, 12th Floor, Brooklyn, New York 11217, (800) 848-6468. The Bank of New York Mellon is subject to supervision and examination by the Superintendent of Banks of the State of New York and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and its deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to the extent permitted by law. The trustee, whose duties are ministerial in nature, has not participated in selecting the portfolio of any trust. In accordance with the trust agreement, the trustee shall keep records of all transactions at its office. Such records shall include the name and address of, and the number of units held by, every unitholder of a trust. Such books and records shall be open to inspection by any unitholder at all reasonable times during usual business hours. The trustee shall make such annual or other reports as may from time to time be required under any applicable state or federal statute, rule or regulation. The trustee shall keep a certified copy or duplicate original of the trust agreement on file in its office available for inspection at all reasonable times during usual business hours by any unitholder, together with a current list of the securities held in each trust. Pursuant to the trust agreement, the trustee may employ one or more agents for the purpose of custody and safeguarding of securities comprising a trust. Under the trust agreement, the trustee or any successor trustee may resign and be discharged of a trust created by the trust agreement by executing an instrument in writing and filing the same with the sponsor. The trustee or successor trustee must mail a copy of the notice of resignation to all unitholders then of record, not less than sixty days before the date specified in such notice when such resignation is to take effect. The sponsor upon receiving notice of such resignation is obligated to appoint a successor trustee promptly. If, upon such resignation, no successor trustee has been appointed and has accepted the appointment within thirty days after notification, the retiring trustee may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor. In case at any time the trustee shall not meet the requirements set forth in the trust agreement, or shall become incapable of acting, or if a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall enter a decree or order for relief in respect of the trustee in an involuntary case, or the trustee shall commence a voluntary case, under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law -18- now or hereafter in effect, or any receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) for the trustee or for any substantial part of its property shall be appointed, or the trustee shall generally fail to pay its debts as they become due, or shall fail to meet such written standards for the trustee's performance as shall be established from time to time by the sponsor, or if the sponsor determines in good faith that there has occurred either (1) a material deterioration in the creditworthiness of the trustee or (2) one or more grossly negligent acts on the part of the trustee with respect to a trust, the sponsor, upon sixty days' prior written notice, may remove the trustee and appoint a successor trustee, as hereinafter provided, by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which shall be delivered to the trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee. Notice of such removal and appointment shall be mailed to each unitholder by the sponsor. Upon execution of a written acceptance of such appointment by such successor trustee, all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of the original trustee shall vest in the successor. The trustee must be a corporation organized under the laws of the United States, or any state thereof, be authorized under such laws to exercise trust powers and have at all times an aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profits of not less than $5,000,000. THE SPONSOR. The sponsor of the trust is Advisors Asset Management, Inc. The sponsor is a broker-dealer specializing in providing services to broker- dealers, registered representatives, investment advisers and other financial professionals. The sponsor's headquarters are located at 18925 Base Camp Road, Monument, Colorado 80132. You can contact the unit investment trust division at 8100 East 22nd Street North, Building 800, Suite 102, Wichita, Kansas 67226 or by using the contacts listed on the back cover of the prospectus. The sponsor is a registered broker-dealer and investment adviser and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA) and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC), and a registrant of the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (MSRB). If at any time the sponsor shall fail to perform any of its duties under the trust agreement or shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or shall have its affairs taken over by public authorities, then the trustee may (a) appoint a successor sponsor at rates of compensation deemed by the trustee to be reasonable and not exceeding such reasonable amounts as may be prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission, (b) terminate the trust agreement and liquidate any trust as provided therein, or (c) continue to act as trustee without terminating the trust agreement. THE EVALUATOR AND SUPERVISOR. Advisors Asset Management, Inc., the sponsor, also serves as evaluator and supervisor. The evaluator and supervisor may resign or be removed by the sponsor and trustee in which event the sponsor and trustee is to use its best efforts to appoint a satisfactory successor. Such resignation or removal shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor evaluator. If upon resignation of the evaluator no successor has accepted appointment within thirty days after notice of resignation, the evaluator may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor. Notice of such resignation or removal and appointment shall be mailed by the trustee to each unitholder. LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY. The sponsor, evaluator, and supervisor are liable for the performance of their obligations arising from their responsibilities under the trust agreement but will be under no liability to the unitholders for taking any action or refraining from any action in -19- good faith pursuant to the trust agreement or for errors in judgment, except in cases of its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or its reckless disregard for its duties thereunder. The sponsor shall not be liable or responsible in any way for depreciation or loss incurred by reason of the sale of any securities. The trust agreement provides that the trustee shall be under no liability for any action taken in good faith in reliance upon prima facie properly executed documents or for the disposition of moneys, securities or certificates except by reason of its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, or its reckless disregard for its duties under the trust agreement, nor shall the trustee be liable or responsible in any way for depreciation or loss incurred by reason of the sale by the trustee of any securities. In the event that the sponsor shall fail to act, the trustee may act and shall not be liable for any such action taken by it in good faith. The trustee shall not be personally liable for any taxes or other governmental charges imposed upon or in respect of the securities or upon the interest thereof. In addition, the trust agreement contains other customary provisions limiting the liability of the trustee. The trustee and unitholders may rely on any evaluation furnished by the evaluator and shall have no responsibility for the accuracy thereof. The trust agreement provides that the determinations made by the evaluator shall be made in good faith upon the basis of the best information available to it, provided, however, that the evaluator shall be under no liability to the trustee or unitholders for errors in judgment, but shall be liable for its gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or its reckless disregard for its obligations under the trust agreement. EXPENSES OF THE TRUST. The sponsor will not charge a trust any fees for services performed as sponsor. The sponsor will receive a portion of the sale commissions paid in connection with the purchase of units and will share in profits, if any, related to the deposit of securities in the trust. The sponsor may receive a fee from your trust for creating and developing the trust, including determining the trust's objectives, policies, composition and size, selecting service providers and information services and for providing other similar administrative and ministerial functions. The amount of this "creation and development fee" is set forth in the prospectus. The trustee will deduct this amount from your trust's assets as of the close of the initial offering period. No portion of this fee is applied to the payment of distribution expenses or as compensation for sales efforts. This fee will not be deducted from proceeds received upon a repurchase, redemption or exchange of units before the close of the initial public offering period. The trustee receives for its services that fee set forth in the prospectus. The trustee's fee which is calculated and paid monthly is based on the total number of units of the related trust outstanding as of January 1 for any annual period, except during the initial offering period the fee will be based on the units outstanding at the end of each month. The trustee benefits to the extent there are funds for future distributions, payment of expenses and redemptions in the Principal and Interest Accounts since these Accounts are non-interest bearing and the amounts earned by the trustee are retained by the trustee. Part of the trustee's compensation for its services to a trust is expected to result from the use of these funds. -20- The supervisor will charge a trust a surveillance fee for services performed for the trust in an amount not to exceed that amount set forth in the prospectus but in no event will such compensation, when combined with all compensation received from other unit investment trusts for which the sponsor both acts as sponsor and provides portfolio surveillance, exceed the aggregate cost to the sponsor for providing such services. Such fee shall be based on the total number of units of the related trust outstanding as of January 1 for any annual period, except during the initial offering period the fee will be based on the units outstanding at the end of each month. For evaluation of the securities in a trust, the evaluator shall receive an evaluation fee in an amount not to exceed that amount set forth in the prospectus but in no event will such compensation, when combined with all compensation from other unit investment trusts for which the sponsor acts as sponsor and provides evaluation services, exceed the aggregate cost of providing such services. Such fee shall be based on the total number of units of the related trust outstanding as of January 1 for any annual period, except during the initial offering period the fee will be based on the units outstanding at the end of each month. For providing bookkeeping and administrative services to a trust, the sponsor shall receive an administration fee in an amount not to exceed that amount set forth in the prospectus but in no event will such compensation, when combined with all compensation from other unit investment trusts for which the sponsor acts as sponsor and provides evaluation services, exceed the aggregate cost of providing such services. Such fee shall be based on the total number of units of the related trust outstanding as of January 1 for any annual period, except during the initial offering period the fee will be based on the units outstanding at the end of each month. The trustee's fee, sponsor's fee for providing bookkeeping and administrative services to the trust, supervisor's fee and evaluator's fee are deducted from the Interest Account of the related trust to the extent funds are available and then from the Principal Account. Each such fee (other than any creation and development fee) may be increased without approval of unitholders by amounts not exceeding a proportionate increase in the Consumer Price Index or any equivalent index substituted therefor. The following additional charges are or may be incurred by the trust: (a) fees for the trustee's extraordinary services; (b) expenses of the trustee (including legal and auditing expenses and reimbursement of the cost of advances to the trust for payment of expenses and distributions, but not including any fees and expenses charged by an agent for custody and safeguarding of securities) and of counsel, if any; (c) various governmental charges; (d) expenses and costs of any action taken by the trustee to protect the trust or the rights and interests of the unitholders; (e) indemnification of the trustee for any loss, liability or expense incurred by it in the administration of the trust not resulting from negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on its part or its reckless disregard of its obligations under the trust agreement; (f) indemnification of the sponsor for any loss, liability or expense incurred in acting in that capacity without gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or its reckless disregard for its obligations under the trust agreement; and (g) expenditures incurred in contacting unitholders upon termination of the trust. The fees and expenses set forth herein are payable out of a trust and, when owing to the trustee, are secured by a lien on the trust. If the balances in the Interest and Principal Accounts -21- are insufficient to provide for amounts payable by the trust, the trustee has the power to sell securities to pay such amounts. These sales may result in capital gains or losses to unitholders. A trust may pay the costs of updating its registration statement each year. PURCHASE, REDEMPTION AND PRICING OF UNITS PUBLIC OFFERING PRICE. Units of a trust are offered at the public offering price thereof. During the initial offering period, the public offering price per unit is equal to the net asset value per unit (generally based on the offering side evaluations of the securities) plus the applicable sales fee referred to in the prospectus plus cash deposited to pay organization costs plus accrued interest, if any. The transactional sales fee is equal to the difference between the maximum sales fee and the total creation and development fee. The public offering price for secondary market transactions, on the other hand, is based on the net asset value per unit (generally based on the bid side evaluations of the securities) plus a sales fee plus cash deposited to pay organization costs plus accrued interest, if any. The sales fee as a percentage of the public offering price and the net amount invested is set forth in the prospectus. The creation and development fee is a fixed dollar amount and will be collected at the end of the initial offering period as described in the prospectus. Units sold or redeemed prior to such time as the entire applicable creation and development fee has been collected will not be assessed the remaining creation and development fee at the time of such sale or redemption. During the initial offering period, a portion of the public offering price includes an amount of cash or securities to pay for all or a portion of the costs incurred in establishing a trust. These costs include the cost of preparing the registration statement, the trust indenture and other closing documents, registering units with the Securities and Exchange Commission and states, the initial audit of the trust portfolio, legal fees and the initial fees and expenses of the trustee. These costs will be deducted from a trust as of the end of the initial offering period or after six months, if earlier. Following the end of the initial offering period, the public offering price for secondary market transactions is based on the net asset value per unit (generally based on the bid side evaluations of the securities) plus a sales fee plus cash deposited to pay organization costs plus accrued interest, if any. Certain broker-dealers may charge a transaction fee for processing unit purchases. As indicated above, the initial public offering price of the units was established by dividing the aggregate underlying value of the securities by the number of units outstanding. Such price determination as of the opening of business on the date a trust was created was made on the basis of an evaluation of the securities in the trust prepared by the evaluator. After the opening of business on this date, the evaluator will appraise or cause to be appraised daily the value of the underlying securities as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on days the New York Stock Exchange is open and will adjust the public offering price of the units commensurate with such valuation. Such public offering price will be effective for all orders received at or prior to the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on each such day as discussed in the prospectus. Orders received by the trustee, sponsor or any authorized financial professionals for purchases, sales or redemptions after that time, or on a day when the New York Stock Exchange is closed, will be held until the next determination of price as discussed in the prospectus. -22- Had units of a trust been available for sale at the close of business on the business day before the inception date of the trust, the public offering price would have been as shown under "Essential Information" in the prospectus. The public offering price per unit of a trust on the date of the prospectus or on any subsequent date will vary from the amount stated under "Essential Information" in the prospectus in accordance with fluctuations in the prices of the underlying securities and the amount of accrued interest on the units. Net asset value per unit is determined by dividing the value of a trust's portfolio securities (including any accrued interest), cash and other assets, less all liabilities (including accrued expenses), by the total number of units outstanding. The portfolio securities are valued at their current market value or their fair value as determined in good faith by the Evaluator. The aggregate bid and offering side evaluations of the securities shall be determined (a) on the basis of current bid or offering prices of the securities, (b) if bid or offering prices are not available for any particular security, on the basis of current bid or offering prices for comparable securities, (c) by determining the value of securities on the bid or offer side of the market by appraisal, or (d) by any combination of the above. The foregoing evaluations and computations shall be made as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, on each business day commencing with the trust's inception date of the securities, effective for all sales made during the preceding 24-hour period. The interest on the securities deposited in a trust, less the related estimated fees and expenses, will accrue daily. The amount of net interest income which accrues per unit may change as securities mature or are redeemed, exchanged or sold, or as the expenses of a trust change or the number of outstanding units of a trust changes. Although payment is normally made three business days following the order for purchase, payments may be made prior thereto. A person will become the owner of units on the date of settlement provided payment has been received. Cash, if any, made available to the sponsor prior to the date of settlement for the purchase of units may be used in the sponsor's business and may be deemed to be a benefit to the sponsor, subject to the limitations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. ACCRUED INTEREST. Accrued interest consists of two elements. The first element arises as a result of accrued interest which is the accumulation of unpaid interest on a security from the last day on which interest thereon was paid. Interest on securities generally is paid monthly or semi-annually although a trust accrues such interest daily. Because of this, a trust always has an amount of interest earned but not yet collected by the trustee. For this reason, with respect to sales settling subsequent to the first settlement date, the public offering price of units of a trust will have added to it the proportionate share of accrued interest to the date of settlement. In an effort to reduce the amount of accrued interest which would otherwise have to be paid in addition to the public offering price in the sale of units to the public, the trustee will advance the amount of accrued interest as of the first settlement date and the same will be distributed to the sponsor as the unitholder of record as of the first settlement date. Consequently, the amount of accrued interest to be added to the public offering price of units -23- will include only accrued interest arising after the first settlement date to the date of settlement, less any distributions from the Interest Account subsequent to the first settlement date. The second element of accrued interest arises because of the structure of the Interest Account. The trustee has no cash for distribution to unitholders until it receives interest payments on the bonds in a trust. The trustee is obligated to provide its own funds, at times, in order to advanced interest distributions. The trustee will recover these advancements when such interest is received. Interest Account balances are established to limit the extent to which it may be necessary for the trustee to advance its own funds in connection with such interest distributions. The Interest Account balances are also structured so that there will generally be positive cash balances. Because of the varying interest payment dates of securities, accrued interest at any point in time will be greater than the amount of interest actually received by the applicable trusts and distributed to unitholders. Therefore, there will always remain an item of accrued interest that is added to the value of the units. If a unitholder sells or redeems all or a portion of his units, he will be entitled to receive his proportionate share of the accrued interest from the purchaser of his units. Since the trustee has the use of the funds held in the Interest Account for distributions to unitholders and since such account is non-interest-bearing to unitholders, the trustee benefits thereby. COMPARISON OF PUBLIC OFFERING PRICE AND REDEMPTION PRICE. While the net asset value of units during the initial offering period will generally be determined on the basis of the current offering prices of the securities in a trust, after the initial offering period the net asset value of units will generally be determined on the basis of the current bid prices of the securities. As of the close of business on the business day before the trust's inception date, the public offering price per unit exceeded the redemption price at which units could have been redeemed by the amount of the sales fee. The bid prices for on securities similar to those in the trust are lower than the offering prices thereof. For this reason, among others (including fluctuations in the market prices of the securities and the fact that the public offering price includes a sales fee), the amount realized by a unitholder upon any redemption of units may be less than the price paid for such units. PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION OF UNITS. The sponsor intends to qualify the units for sale in a number of states. Units will be sold through dealers who are members of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. and through others. Sales may be made to or through dealers at prices which represent discounts from the public offering price as set forth in the prospectus. Certain commercial banks may be making units available to their customers on an agency basis. The sponsor reserves the right to change the discounts from time to time. We may provide, at our own expense and out of our own profits, additional compensation and benefits to broker-dealers who sell shares of units of this trust and our other products. This compensation is intended to result in additional sales of our products and/or compensate broker-dealers and financial advisors for past sales. We may make these payments for marketing, promotional or related expenses, including, but not limited to, expenses of entertaining retail customers and financial advisors, advertising, sponsorship of events or seminars, obtaining shelf -24- space in broker-dealer firms and similar activities designed to promote the sale of the our products. These arrangements will not change the price you pay for your units. The sponsor reserves the right to reject, in whole or in part, any order for the purchase of units. PROFITS OF SPONSOR. The sponsor will receive gross sales fees equal to the percentage of the offering price of the units of such trusts stated in the prospectus and will pay a portion of such sales fees to dealers and agents. In addition, the sponsor may realize a profit or a loss resulting from the difference between the purchase prices of the securities to the sponsor and the cost of such securities to a trust, which is based on the offering side evaluation of the securities. The sponsor may also realize profits or losses with respect to securities deposited in a trust which were acquired from underwriting syndicates of which the sponsor was a member. An underwriter or underwriting syndicate purchases securities from the issuer on a negotiated or competitive bid basis, as principal, with the motive of marketing such securities to investors at a profit. The sponsor may realize additional profits or losses during the initial offering period on unsold units as a result of changes in the daily evaluation of the securities in a trust. MARKET FOR UNITS. After the initial offering period, while not obligated to do so, the sponsor may, subject to change at any time, maintain a market for units of the trust offered hereby and to continuously offer to purchase said units at the net asset value, determined by the evaluator based on the aggregate bid prices of the underlying securities in the trust, together with any accrued interest to the expected dates of settlement, provided that the repurchase price will not be reduced by any remaining creation and development fee or organization costs during the initial offering period. While the sponsor may repurchase units from time to time, it does not currently intend to maintain an active secondary market for units. To the extent that a market is maintained during the initial offering period, the prices at which units will be repurchased will be based upon the aggregate offering side evaluation of the securities in the trust. The aggregate bid prices of the underlying securities in each trust are expected to be less than the related aggregate offering prices (which is generally the evaluation method used during the initial public offering period). Accordingly, unitholders who wish to dispose of their units should inquire of their broker as to current market prices in order to determine whether there is in existence any price in excess of the redemption price and, if so, the amount thereof. The offering price of any units resold by the sponsor will be in accord with that described in the currently effective prospectus describing such units. Any profit or loss resulting from the resale of such units will belong to the sponsor. If the sponsor decides to maintain a secondary market, it may suspend or discontinue purchases of units of the trust if the supply of units exceeds demand, or for other business reasons. REDEMPTION. A unitholder who does not dispose of units in the secondary market described above may cause units to be redeemed by the trustee by making a written request to the trustee at its unit investment trust division office. Unitholders must sign the request exactly as their names appear on the records of the trustee. If the amount of the redemption is $500 or less and the proceeds are payable to the unitholder(s) of record at the address of record, no signature guarantee is necessary for redemptions by individual account owners (including joint -25- owners). Additional documentation may be requested, and a signature guarantee is always required, from corporations, executors, administrators, trustees, guardians or associations. The signatures must be guaranteed by a participant in the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program ("STAMP") or such other signature guaranty program in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP, as may be accepted by the trustee. Redemption shall be made by the trustee no later than the seventh day following the day on which a tender for redemption is received (the "Redemption Date") by payment of cash equivalent to the redemption price, determined as set forth below under "Computation of Redemption Price," as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange next following such tender, multiplied by the number of units being redeemed. Any units redeemed shall be canceled and any undivided fractional interest in the related trust extinguished. The price received upon redemption might be more or less than the amount paid by the unitholder depending on the value of the securities in the trust at the time of redemption. Certain broker-dealers may charge a transaction fee for processing redemption requests. Under regulations issued by the Internal Revenue Service, the trustee is required to withhold a specified percentage 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 a tax return. Under normal circumstances the trustee obtains the unitholder's tax identification number from the selling broker. However, any time a unitholder elects to tender units for redemption, such unitholder should make sure that the trustee has been provided a certified tax identification number in order to avoid this possible "back-up withholding." In the event the trustee has not been previously provided such number, one must be provided at the time redemption is requested. Any amounts paid on redemption representing interest shall be withdrawn from the Interest Account of a trust to the extent that funds are available for such purpose. All other amounts paid on redemption shall be withdrawn from the Principal Account for a trust. The trustee is empowered to sell securities in order to make funds available for the redemption of units. To the extent that securities are sold, the size of a trust will be, and the diversity of a trust may be, reduced but each remaining unit will continue to represent approximately the same proportional interest in each security. Sales may be required at a time when securities would not otherwise be sold and may result in lower prices than might otherwise be realized. The price received upon redemption may be more or less than the amount paid by the unitholder depending on the value of the securities in the portfolio at the time of redemption. The trustee is irrevocably authorized in its discretion, if the sponsor does not elect to purchase any unit tendered for redemption, in lieu of redeeming such units, to sell such units in the over-the-counter market for the account of tendering unitholders at prices which will return to the unitholders amounts in cash, net after brokerage commissions, transfer taxes and other charges, equal to or in excess of the redemption price for such units. In the event of any such sale, the trustee shall pay the net proceeds thereof to the unitholders on the day they would otherwise be entitled to receive payment of the redemption price. -26- The right of redemption may be suspended and payment postponed (1) for any period during which the New York Stock Exchange is closed, other than customary weekend and holiday closings, or during which (as determined by the Securities and Exchange Commission) trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted; (2) for any period during which an emergency exists as a result of which disposal by the trustee of securities is not reasonably practicable or it is not reasonably practicable to fairly determine the value of the underlying securities in accordance with the trust agreement; or (3) for such other period as the Securities and Exchange Commission may by order permit. The trustee is not liable to any person in any way for any loss or damage which may result from any such suspension or postponement. COMPUTATION OF REDEMPTION PRICE. The redemption price for units (the net asset value) of each trust is computed by the evaluator as of the evaluation time stated in the prospectus next occurring after the tendering of a unit for redemption and on any other business day desired by it, by: A. adding: (1) the cash on hand in the trust other than cash deposited in the trust to purchase securities not applied to the purchase of such securities; (2) the aggregate value of each issue of the securities (including "when issued" contracts, if any) held in the trust as determined by the evaluator on the basis of bid prices therefor; and (3) interest accrued and unpaid on the securities in the trust as of the date of computation; B. deducting therefrom (1) amounts representing any applicable taxes or governmental charges payable out of the trust and for which no deductions have been previously made for the purpose of additions to the Reserve Account; (2) an amount representing estimated accrued expenses of the trust, including but not limited to fees and expenses of the trustee (including legal and auditing fees and any insurance costs), the evaluator, the sponsor and bond counsel, if any; (3) cash held for distribution to unitholders of record as of the business day prior to the evaluation being made; and (4) other liabilities incurred by the trust, provided that the redemption price will not be reduced by any creation and development fee or organization costs during the initial offering period; and C. finally dividing the results of such computation by the number of units of the trust outstanding as of the date thereof. RETIREMENT PLANS. A trust may be suited for purchase by Individual Retirement Accounts, Keogh Plans, pension funds and other qualified retirement plans. Generally, capital gains and income received under each of the foregoing plans are deferred from Federal taxation. All distributions from such plans are generally treated as ordinary income but may, in some cases, be eligible for special income averaging or tax-deferred rollover treatment. Investors considering participation in any such plan should review specific tax laws related thereto and should consult their attorneys or tax advisers with respect to the establishment and maintenance of any such plan. Such plans are offered by brokerage firms and other financial institutions. The trust may lower the minimum investment requirement for IRA accounts. Fees and charges with respect to such plans may vary. -27- OWNERSHIP OF UNITS. Ownership of units will not be evidenced by certificates. Units may be purchased in denominations of one unit or any multiple thereof, subject to the minimum investment requirement. Fractions of units, if any, will be computed to three decimal places. TAXATION The prospectus contains a discussion of certain U.S. federal income tax issues concerning your trust and the purchase, ownership and disposition of trust units. The discussion below supplements the prospectus discussion and is qualified in its entirety by the prospectus discussion. Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors with regard to the federal tax consequences of the purchase, ownership, or disposition of trust units, as well as the tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, locality, non-U.S. country, or other taxing jurisdiction. The federal income tax summary below and in the prospectus is based in part on the advice of counsel to your trust. The Internal Revenue Service could disagree with any conclusions set forth in these discussions. In addition, our counsel was not asked to review, and has not reached a conclusion with respect to the federal income tax treatment of the assets to be held by your trust. This may not be sufficient for prospective investors to use for the purpose of avoiding penalties under federal tax law. If so indicated in the prospectus, your trust intends (i) to elect and (ii) to qualify annually as a regulated investment company under the Code and to comply with applicable distribution requirements so that it will not pay federal income tax on income and capital gains distributed to its unitholders. To qualify for the favorable U.S. federal income tax treatment generally accorded to regulated investment companies, your trust must, among other things, (a) derive in each taxable year at least 90% of its gross income from dividends, interest, payments with respect to securities loans and gains from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities or foreign currencies or other income derived with respect to its business of investing in such stock, securities or currencies, and net income from certain publicly traded partnerships; (b) diversify its holdings so that, at the end of each quarter of the taxable year, (i) at least 50% of the market value of the trust's assets is represented by cash and cash items (including receivables), U.S. government securities, the securities of other regulated investment companies and other securities, with such other securities of any one issuer generally limited for the purposes of this calculation to an amount not greater than 5% of the value of the trust's total assets and not greater than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer, and (ii) not more than 25% of the value of its total assets is invested in the securities (other than U.S. government securities or the securities of other regulated investment companies) of any one issuer, or two or more issuers which the trust controls and are engaged in the same, similar or related trades or businesses, or the securities of certain publicly traded partnerships; and (c) distribute at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (which includes, among other items, dividends, interest and net short- term capital gains in excess of net long-term capital losses but excludes net capital gain, if any) and at least 90% of its net tax-exempt interest income each taxable year. -28- As a regulated investment company, your trust generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its investment company taxable income (as that term is defined in the Code, but without regard to the deduction for dividends paid) and net capital gain (the excess of net long-term capital gain over net short term capital loss), if any, that it distributes to unitholders. The trusts intend to distribute to its unitholders, at least annually, substantially all of its investment company taxable income and net capital gain. If your trust retains any net capital gain or investment company taxable income, it will generally be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates on the amount retained. In addition, amounts not distributed on a timely basis in accordance with a calendar year distribution requirement are subject to a nondeductible 4% excise tax unless, generally, your trust distributes during each calendar year an amount equal to the sum of (1) at least 98% of its ordinary income (not taking into account any capital gains or losses) for the calendar year, (2) at least 98% of its capital gains in excess of its capital losses (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for the one-year period ending October 31 of the calendar year, and (3) any ordinary income and capital gains for previous years that were not distributed during those years. To prevent application of the excise tax, your trust intends to make its distributions in accordance with the calendar year distribution requirement. Further, if your trust retains any net capital gain, the trust may designate the retained amount as undistributed capital gains in a notice to unitholders who, if subject to federal income tax on long-term capital gains (i) will be required to include in income for federal income tax purposes, as long-term capital gain, their share of such undistributed amount, and (ii) will be entitled to credit their proportionate share of the tax paid by the trust against their federal income tax liabilities if any, and to claim refunds to the extent the credit exceeds such liabilities. A distribution will be treated as paid on December 31 of the current calendar year if it is declared by your trust in October, November or December with a record date in such a month and paid by your trust during January of the following calendar year. These distributions will be taxable to unitholders in the calendar year in which the distributions are declared, rather than the calendar year in which the distributions are received. If your trust failed to qualify as a regulated investment company or failed to satisfy the 90% distribution requirement in any taxable year, the trust would be taxed as an ordinary corporation on its taxable income (even if such income were distributed to its unitholders) and all distributions out of earnings and profits would be taxed to unitholders as ordinary dividend income. PERFORMANCE INFORMATION INTEREST, ESTIMATED LONG-TERM RETURN AND ESTIMATED CURRENT RETURN. As of the close of business on the business day before the trust's inception date, the estimated long-term return and the estimated current return, if applicable, for each trust were as set forth in the "Essential Information" for each trust in the prospectus. Estimated current return is calculated by dividing the current estimated net annual interest income per unit based on the interest rates currently applicable to the bonds by the public offering price. The estimated net annual interest income per unit will vary with changes in the interest rates applicable to the bonds (some of which may be subject to adjustments related to changes in the bonds' ratings as provided by certain ratings services) fees and expenses of the trustee, the sponsor and the evaluator and with the principal prepayment, redemption, maturity, exchange or sale of the securities while the public offering -29- price will vary with changes in the offering price of the underlying securities and accrued interest; therefore, there is no assurance that the present estimated current return will be realized in the future. Estimated long-term return is calculated using a formula which (1) takes into consideration, and determines and factors in the relative weightings of, the market values, yields (which takes into account the amortization of premiums and the accretion of discounts) and estimated retirements or average life of all of the securities in a trust and (2) takes into account the expenses and sales fee associated with each trust unit. Since the interest rates, market values and estimated retirements of the securities and the expenses of a trust may change, there is no assurance that the present estimated long-term return will be realized in the future. Estimated current return and estimated long-term return are expected to differ because the calculation of estimated long-term return reflects the estimated date and amount of principal returned while estimated current return calculations include only net annual interest income and public offering price. GENERAL. Information contained in this Information Supplement or in the prospectus, as it currently exists or as further updated, may also be included from time to time in other prospectuses or in advertising material. Information on the performance of a trust strategy or the actual performance of a trust may be included from time to time in other prospectuses or advertising material and may reflect sales fees and expenses of a trust. The performance of a trust may also be compared to the performance of money managers as reported in SEI Fund Evaluation Survey or of mutual funds as reported by Lipper Analytical Services Inc. (which calculates total return using actual dividends on ex-dates accumulated for the quarter and reinvested at quarter end), Money Magazine Fund Watch (which rates fund performance over a specified time period after sales fee and assuming all dividends reinvested) or Wiesenberger Investment Companies Service (which states fund performance annually on a total return basis) or of the New York Stock Exchange Composite Index, the American Stock Exchange Index (unmanaged indices of stocks traded on the New York and American Stock Exchanges, respectively), the Dow Jones Industrial Average (an index of 30 widely traded industrial common stocks) or the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (an unmanaged diversified index of 500 stocks) or similar measurement standards during the same period of time. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES RATINGS STANDARD & POOR'S, A DIVISION OF THE MCGRAW-HILL COMPANIES. A Standard & Poor's issue credit rating is a current opinion of the creditworthiness of an obligor with respect to a specific financial obligation, a specific class of financial obligations, or a specific financial program (including ratings on medium-term note programs and commercial paper programs). It takes into consideration the creditworthiness of guarantors, insurers, or other forms of credit enhancement on the obligation and takes into account the currency in which the obligation is denominated. The issue credit rating is not a recommendation to purchase, sell, or hold a financial obligation, inasmuch as it does not comment as to market price or suitability for a particular investor. Issue credit ratings are based on current information furnished by the obligors or obtained by Standard & Poor's from other sources it considers reliable. Standard & Poor's does not perform an audit in connection with any credit rating and may, on occasion, rely on unaudited -30- financial information. Credit ratings may be changed, suspended, or withdrawn as a result of changes in, or unavailability of, such information, or based on other circumstances. Issue credit ratings can be either long term or short term. Short-term ratings are generally assigned to those obligations considered short-term in the relevant market. In the U.S., for example, that means obligations with an original maturity of no more than 365 days, including commercial paper. Short- term ratings are also used to indicate the creditworthiness of an obligor with respect to put features on long-term obligations. The result is a dual rating, in which the short-term rating addresses the put feature, in addition to the usual long-term rating. Medium-term notes are assigned long-term ratings. Long-Term Issue Credit Ratings Issue credit ratings are based, in varying degrees, on the following considerations: * Likelihood of payment capacity and willingness of the obligor to meet its financial commitment on an obligation in accordance with the terms of the obligation; * Nature of and provisions of the obligation; * Protection afforded by, and relative position of, the obligation in the event of bankruptcy, reorganization, or other arrangement under the laws of bankruptcy and other laws affecting creditors' rights. The issue rating definitions are expressed in terms of default risk. As such, they pertain to senior obligations of an entity. Junior obligations are typically rated lower than senior obligations, to reflect the lower priority in bankruptcy, as noted above. (Such differentiation applies when an entity has both senior and subordinated obligations, secured and unsecured obligations, or operating company and holding company obligations.) Accordingly, in the case of junior debt, the rating may not conform exactly with the category definition. AAA--An obligation rated 'AAA' has the highest rating assigned by Standard & Poor's. The obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is extremely strong. AA--An obligation rated 'AA' differs from the highest-rated obligations only to a small degree. The obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is very strong. A--An obligation rated 'A' is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higher- rated categories. However, the obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is still strong. BBB--An obligation rated 'BBB' exhibits adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. BB, B, CCC, CC, and C -31- Obligations rated 'BB', 'B', 'CCC', 'CC', and 'C' are regarded as having significant speculative characteristics. 'BB' indicates the least degree of speculation and 'C' the highest. While such obligations will likely have some quality and protective characteristics, these may be outweighed by large uncertainties or major exposures to adverse conditions. BB--An obligation rated 'BB' is less vulnerable to nonpayment than other speculative issues. However, it faces major ongoing uncertainties or exposure to adverse business, financial, or economic conditions which could lead to the obligor's inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. B--An obligation rated 'B' is more vulnerable to nonpayment than obligations rated 'BB', but the obligor currently has the capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. Adverse business, financial, or economic conditions will likely impair the obligor's capacity or willingness to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. CCC--An obligation rated 'CCC' is currently vulnerable to nonpayment, and is dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions for the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. In the event of adverse business, financial, or economic conditions, the obligor is not likely to have the capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. CC--An obligation rated 'CC' is currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment. C--A subordinated debt or preferred stock obligation rated 'C' is currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment. The 'C' rating may be used to cover a situation where a bankruptcy petition has been filed or similar action taken, but payments on this obligation are being continued. A 'C' also will be assigned to a preferred stock issue in arrears on dividends or sinking fund payments, but that is currently paying. D--An obligation rated 'D' is in payment default. The 'D' rating category is used when payments on an obligation are not made on the date due even if the applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor's believes that such payments will be made during such grace period. The 'D' rating also will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the taking of a similar action if payments on an obligation are jeopardized. Plus (+) or minus (-)--The ratings from 'AA' to 'CCC' may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories. N.R.--This indicates that no rating has been requested, that there is insufficient information on which to base a rating, or that Standard & Poor's does not rate a particular obligation as a matter of policy. Active Qualifiers (Currently applied and/or outstanding) i--This subscript is used for issues in which the credit factors, terms, or both, that determine the likelihood of receipt of payment of interest are different from the credit factors, terms or both -32- that determine the likelihood of receipt of principal on the obligation. The 'i' subscript indicates that the rating addresses the interest portion of the obligation only. The 'i' subscript will always be used in conjunction with the 'p' subscript, which addresses likelihood of receipt of principal. For example, a rated obligation could be assigned ratings of "AAAp N.R.i" indicating that the principal portion is rated "AAA" and the interest portion of the obligation is not rated. L--Ratings qualified with 'L' apply only to amounts invested up to federal deposit insurance limits. p--This subscript is used for issues in which the credit factors, the terms, or both, that determine the likelihood of receipt of payment of principal are different from the credit factors, terms or both that determine the likelihood of receipt of interest on the obligation. The 'p' subscript indicates that the rating addresses the principal portion of the obligation only. The 'p' subscript will always be used in conjunction with the 'i' subscript, which addresses likelihood of receipt of interest. For example, a rated obligation could be assigned ratings of "AAAp N.R.i" indicating that the principal portion is rated "AAA" and the interest portion of the obligation is not rated. pi--Ratings with a 'pi' subscript are based on an analysis of an issuer's published financial information, as well as additional information in the public domain. They do not, however, reflect in-depth meetings with an issuer's management and are therefore based on less comprehensive information than ratings without a 'pi' subscript. Ratings with a 'pi' subscript are reviewed annually based on a new year's financial statements, but may be reviewed on an interim basis if a major event occurs that may affect the issuer's credit quality. pr--The letters 'pr' indicate that the rating is provisional. A provisional rating assumes the successful completion of the project financed by the debt being rated and indicates that payment of debt service requirements is largely or entirely dependent upon the successful, 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. The investor should exercise his own judgment with respect to such likelihood and risk. t--This symbol indicates termination structures that are designed to honor their contracts to full maturity or, should certain events occur, to terminate and cash settle all their contracts before their final maturity date. MOODY'S INVESTORS SERVICE, INC. Long-Term Obligation Ratings Moody's long-term obligation ratings are opinions of the relative credit risk of fixed-income obligations with an original maturity of one year or more. They address the possibility that a financial obligation will not be honored as promised. Such ratings reflect both the likelihood of default and any financial loss suffered in the event of default. Long-Term Rating Definitions: Aaa--Obligations rated Aaa are judged to be of the highest quality, with minimal credit risk. -33- Aa--Obligations rated Aa are judged to be of high quality and are subject to very low credit risk. A--Obligations rated A are considered upper-medium grade and are subject to low credit risk. Baa--Obligations rated Baa are subject to moderate credit risk. They are considered medium-grade and as such may possess certain speculative characteristics. Ba--Obligations rated Ba are judged to have speculative elements and are subject to substantial credit risk. B--Obligations rated B are considered speculative and are subject to high credit risk. Caa--Obligations rated Caa are judged to be of poor standing and are subject to very high credit risk. Ca--Obligations rated Ca are highly speculative and are likely in, or very near, default, with some prospect of recovery of principal and interest. C--Obligations rated C are the lowest rated class of bonds and are typically in default, with little prospect for recovery of principal or interest. Note: Moody's appends numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 to each generic rating classification from Aa through Caa. The modifier 1 indicates that the obligation ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category; the modifier 2 indicates a mid-range ranking; and the modifier 3 indicates a ranking in the lower end of that generic rating category. FITCH RATINGS LTD., International Long-Term Credit Ratings A Fitch International Long-Term Credit Ratings ("LTCR") may also be referred to as long-term ratings. When assigned to most issuers, it is used as a benchmark measure of probability of default and is formally described as an issuer default rating ("IDR"). The major exception is within public finance, where IDRs will not be assigned as market convention has always focused on timeliness and does not draw analytical distinctions between issuers and their underlying obligations. When applied to issues or securities, the LTCR may be higher or lower than the IDR to reflect relative differences in recovery expectations. The following rating scale applies to foreign currency and local currency ratings: Investment Grade Ratings AAA--Highest credit quality. "AAA" ratings denote the lowest expectation of credit risk. They are assigned only in case of exceptionally strong capacity for payment of financial commitments. This capacity is highly unlikely to be adversely affected by foreseeable events. AA--Very high credit quality. "AA" ratings denote expectations of very low credit risk. They indicate very strong capacity for payment of financial commitments. This capacity is not significantly vulnerable to foreseeable events. -34- A--High credit quality. "A" ratings denote expectations of low credit risk. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered strong. This capacity may, nevertheless, be more vulnerable to changes in circumstances or in economic conditions than is the case for higher ratings. BBB--Good credit quality. "BBB" ratings indicate that there are currently expectations of low credit risk. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered adequate but adverse changes in circumstances and economic conditions are more likely to impair this capacity. This is the lowest investment grade category. Speculative Grade BB--Speculative. "BB" ratings indicate that there is a possibility of credit risk developing, particularly as the result of adverse economic change over time; however, business or financial alternatives may be available to allow financial commitments to be met. Securities rated in this category are not investment grade. B--Highly speculative. For issuers and performing obligations, "B" ratings indicate that significant credit risk is present, but a limited margin of safety remains. Financial commitments are currently being met; however, capacity for continued payment is contingent upon a sustained, favorable business and economic environment. For individual obligations, may indicate distressed or defaulted obligations with potential for extremely high recoveries. Such obligations would possess a Recovery Rating of "RR1" (outstanding). CCC--For issuers and performing obligations, default is a real possibility. Capacity for meeting financial commitments is solely reliant upon sustained, favorable business or economic conditions. For individual obligations, may indicate distressed or defaulted obligations with potential for average to superior levels of recovery. Differences in credit quality may be denoted by plus/minus distinctions. Such obligations typically would possess a Recovery Rating of "RR2" (superior), "RR3" (good) or "RR4" (average). CC--For issuers and performing obligations, default of some kind appears probable. For individual obligations, may indicate distressed or defaulted obligations with a Recovery Rating of "RR4" (average) or "RR5" (below average). C--For issuers and performing obligations, default is imminent. For individual obligations, may indicate distressed or defaulted obligations with potential for below-average to poor recoveries. Such obligations would possess a Recovery Rating of "RR6" (poor). RD--Indicates an entity that has failed to make due payments (within the applicable grace period) on some but not all material financial obligations, but continues to honor other classes of obligations. . D--Indicates an entity or sovereign that has defaulted on all of its financial obligations. Default generally is defined as one of the following: a) failure of an obligor to make timely payment of principal and/or interest under the contractual terms of any financial obligation; b) the -35- bankruptcy filings, administration, receivership, liquidation or other winding- up or cessation of business of an obligor; or c) the distressed or other coercive exchange of an obligation, where creditors were offered securities with diminished structural or economic terms compared with the existing obligation. Default ratings are not assigned prospectively; within this context, non-payment on an instrument that contains a deferral feature or grace period will not be considered a default until after the expiration of the deferral or grace period. Issuers will be rated "D" upon a default. Defaulted and distressed obligations typically are rated along the continuum of "C" to "B" ratings categories, depending upon their recovery prospects and other relevant characteristics. Additionally, in structured finance transactions, where analysis indicates that an instrument is irrevocably impaired such that it is not expected to meet pay interest and/or principal in full in accordance with the terms of the obligation's documentation during the life of the transaction, but where no payment default in accordance with the terms of the documentation is imminent, the obligation may be rated in the "B" or "CCC-C" categories. Default is determined by reference to the terms of the obligations' documentation. Fitch will assign default ratings where it has reasonably determined that payment has not been made on a material obligation in accordance with the requirements of the obligation's documentation, or where it believes that default ratings consistent with Fitch's published definition of default are the most appropriate ratings to assign. Note: The modifiers "+" or "-" may be appended to a rating to denote relative status within major rating categories. Such suffixes are not added to the "AAA" Long-term rating category, to categories below "CCC", or to Short-term ratings other than "F1". (The +/- modifiers are only used to denote issues within the CCC category, whereas issuers are only rated CCC without the use of modifiers.) -36- CONTENTS OF REGISTRATION STATEMENT This Registration Statement comprises the following papers and documents: The facing sheet The prospectus The signatures The consents of the initial evaluator, independent public accountants and legal counsel The following exhibits: 1.1 Trust Agreement (to be filed by amendment). 1.1.1 Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust (to be filed by amendment). 1.2 Certificate of Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation and Certificate of Merger of Advisors Asset Management, Inc.
